MARY:
No.

[SCOFFS]

No.

No.

Because I haven't.

Because they're not
gonna take it well.

Because they're not.

Soon, I promise.

Yes, when you're
in the neighbourhood.

Yes, we're having dinner
tonight, but--

Trust me. It's not a good idea.

Because you're not a good idea.

I have to go.

[PHONE CLICKS]

Tell me you've come
to your senses and that was Ben.

I have come to my senses,
and that was not Ben.

Well, who was it?

None of your business
or anyone else's.

When are we gonna meet
Mr. None-of-Our-Business?

You are not gonna meet him.

Because...?

Mom and Dad wouldn't understand.

Because...?

Because they don't think of me
as an adult woman with a career.

They think of me as Mary.

And no need to ask because
on that one.

However, I think of you
as an adult woman with a career.

I do.

- Let me meet him.
- Nope.

Fine.

Just tell me
why is he not a good idea?

[SIGHS]

Hi, guys.

Hi, Mom.

What's up, Kevin?

Hey, man.

Uh, why don't you just call me Annie

until you officially
ask Lucy to marry you?

I like the sound of Mom,

and I am gonna ask
Lucy to marry me

as soon as I think she'll say yes.

You moved here
and changed your whole life for her,

- and you don't think she'll say yes?
- Not yet. But she will.

By the way, I finally got
a permanent partner assigned to me.

A rookie.
Do you mind if she joins us for dinner?

I want Lucy to meet her.

Her?

[PHONE RINGS]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

[SIMON SIGHS]

You better get over Joy.

I can't.

- It's a woman.
- Mm-mm.

Sorry, I thought he was in his room,
but he's not.

I'll have him call you back.

She said, "sure."

You get it next time.

I'm swearing off women, okay?

[GRUNTS]

Yeah, right.

[SIGHS]

So, what do you want to do?

I think we should practise making out
until we get it right.

That's fine with me.
What is your name again?

Cecilia.

Right.

[CHIMPANZEE GIBBERING
NEARBY]

- What's going on?
- Nothing.

Nothing. Great.

Um.

- Who is that?
- Anyone you want him to be.

I'm chimpsitting.

You remember Eisenhower
from across the street?

His owner, Curtis,
had to go to some meeting

because Eisenhower got into a fight
with his girlfriend.

Eisenhower has a girlfriend?

No. Curtis has a girlfriend.

And Eisenhower
threw banana pudding at her.

Now there's this
whole big meeting about it.

[WHISPERING]
Oh.

- Hey, Dad?
- Yeah?

You mind if my boyfriend
comes over tonight?

[MOUTHS]
Boyfriend?

[GIBBERING]

[GIBBERING]

I'm not eating at a table
set by a monkey.

Fine with me.
Feel free to set your very own place.

[SIGHS]

You know that's, uh, a chimp,

- not a monkey.
- So I offended him?

You know, I want everyone
to feel comfortable in my house,

even Ben.

Any chance that Ben might
fly in on one of your buddy passes

- and have dinner with us?
- No.

- What about tomorrow night?
- No.

- The next night?
- No.

We like Ben.

Ben is a nice man.

What happened to
the nice man Ben?

His girlfriend came back
from London.

That's what happened to Ben.

Oh, why didn't you just
tell us that before?

Did Ben break up with you
for his old girlfriend?

Oh, no, I broke up with him
for his old girlfriend.

He's too nice to break up with me.

Hmm.

[BLOWS RASPBERRY]

[CHUCKLES]

I cannot wait to get out of this circus
and get back to Buffalo.

How long you
gonna work out of Glenoak?

Two whole lousy weeks.

[BLOWS RASPBERRY]

[EISENHOWER GIBBERING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

I'll get it.

Hi, um, is Kevin home?

ERIC: Uh, he's in the garage.
He has the garage apartment.

Thanks. I'm sure I can find him.

Uh, the garage is--
It's right over there.

Thanks. Heh.

LUCY: Who was that?
- I-- I have no idea.

- Where did she come from?
- I don't know.

- She just showed up at the back door.
- Well, uninvited?

I think we both know
how this will turn out.

LUCY:
Wha-- I wanna know who she is.

Well, I'm sure
Kevin will introduce you.

How can he entertain
another woman

in the garage apartment
my mother built?

Well, it is his apartment.
He is paying rent.

It's a very nice rent.

Well, that doesn't entitle him to--
To anything.

Why don't you give the guy a break

and let him know
he didn't move here for nothing?

I think he'd ask you to marry him
if he thought you'd do it.

But he doesn't think I'd do it,

so he went out
and find himself another woman?

Maybe.

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

Hi. What's going on?

A beautiful blond woman
just showed up asking for Kevin.

Beautiful? Ugh.

I don't think I'd call her beautiful.

- Gorgeous?
- I don't think I'd call her gorgeous.

- What would you call her?
- His new partner.

- She's having dinner with us.
- What?

Kevin asked if he could
bring his new partner to dinner.

He finally got
a permanent assignment,

so he knew that
you'd wanna meet her.

Hmm.

Maybe I should be there--

Uh.

The twins had a really late snack,
so they're taking an even later nap.

Maybe we should check on them?

- How long before dinner's ready?
- Long enough.

- Are you sure this is a good time?
- Oh, yeah.

Does Mary know
the two of you are using her car?

- Yep.
- Does she know you're not driving it,

- you're just using it to make out?
- Nope.

Do you know there's a hot blond chick
up in Kevin's apartment?

She's not hot.

[IN UNISON]
Yeah, she is.

KEVIN:
You won't hurt me.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Wait here, I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

Where does it look like I'm going?

I don't know,
but I want you to come upstairs

and meet my new partner.
She's really nice.

[SIMON SIGHS]

And I suppose you think
she's really hot too?

- I guess.
- Wrong answer.

- So you think she's hot?
- Is she?

- You tell me.
- Okay. She's hot.

He's an idiot.

Yeah, but only
when it comes to Lucy.

- Did you ask her to be your partner?
- No, I didn't ask her.

- She was assigned to me.
- By?

I don't know, but probably
by your friend, Detective Michaels.

He works with the academy.

I think he has something to do
with the assignments.

How did Detective Michaels
get involved in our business?

It's not our business,
it's police business.

Yeah, well, if you love me,
your business is my business.

[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES]

I think she's gonna
make a phone call.

Who's she gonna call,
Detective Michaels?

Yeah, she would call
Detective Michaels.

Take my word for it.

You might wanna stop her.

Where were we?

[DOOR CLOSES]

Would you stop worrying?

Sam and David have at least
another 20 minutes in there.

But what about dinner?

Well, if the pot roast
goes up in flames

then we can send
everyone for pizza

and then we'll have
the place to ourselves.

Heh, heh.
I-- I don't know what's gotten into you.

Not that I don't like it, but, uh...

I dropped my HRT therapy.
Suddenly, I'm alive again.

Ah, yes. Well, heh, heh, remember
I have a weak heart, okay?

Let's not kill me.

Heh, heh.
Well, I can't promise anything.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Okay, okay,
could I get a rain cheque?

- What?
- It's not you, it's me.

I'm getting
the "it's not you, it's me" speech?

You're not breaking up with me,
are you?

Of course not.

I was just kidding.

- Are you okay?
- I'm fine. I'm just--

[SIGHS]

--distracted.

Do our children have normal
relationships with other people?

And chimpanzees?

Oh.

You worry too much.

[LUCY GRUNTING]

How can you be jealous
of any other woman

when you know
how I feel about you?

Jealous? You think I'm jealous?

Hey, just because you love me
and wanna marry me

doesn't mean you can't be attracted
to another woman.

All right.

- "All right"?
- Thanks?

"Thanks"?

What is wrong with you?

How's it going?

I brought my partner over for Lucy
to meet and it didn't go very well.

I didn't wanna know.
I was just saying, "how's it going?"

[SIGHS]

ROBBIE:
Roxanne?

Robbie?

[ROBBIE LAUGHS]

You look the same
as you did in 7th grade.

Except, well, you look even better.

You look the same
but even better too.

- You used to be the good girl.
- You used to be the bad boy.

[CHUCKLES]

I spent the entire 7th grade
thinking about making out with you.

- Really?
- Yeah, really.

[CLEARS THROAT]

KEVIN [OVER PHONE]:
Who are you calling?

You can't call Detective Michaels.

I'm still new in the department,
a transfer.

I'm not one of the guys yet.

I'll tell you what.
When everyone knows me really well

then you can call down to the station
and embarrass me.

I promise.

Please, just talk to Roxanne.
Get to know her.

I'm waiting for a real phone call.

One that comes
from outside the house.

Could you two settle this
in the same room?

Why don't you just marry him
and get it over with?

Maybe I don't wanna get married.

You can't just lock him in the garage

where you can keep an eye on him
the rest of your life.

[EISENHOWER GIBBERING]

Kevin's gonna be with this woman
all day, every day.

She's already got a bad impression.
Do you wanna make it worse?

She's gonna be talking to him
about you,

and he's gonna be talking
to her about you.

He's not even interested in her.

- Who?
- Ben.

He's not interested
in his old girlfriend.

It doesn't matter.
She's interested in him.

It does matter.

His old girlfriend
wanted to move back to Buffalo,

but that doesn't mean Ben wants
his old girlfriend to move to Buffalo.

But the fact is she did.

And ever since she did, she's either
been bumping into him or calling him.

And Ben is enjoying
every single minute of it.

That's because he got dumped
by this woman

and now he has somebody else.
You.

No, he does not have me.

And I do not wanna be used
to make Ben's girlfriend jealous.

Because the only reason
he wants to make her jealous

is because he wants her back.

So I have officially moved on.

- Ben loves you.
- No, he never loved me.

He never got over his old girlfriend.

And he's never
going to get over his old girlfriend

until the two of them date again.

So you know what? I'm dating too.

Who are you dating?

We all know you're dating someone.

And my guess is it's someone
you shouldn't be dating. Right?

Stop being a cop.

I was just being a brother.

As Ben's brother, I'm interested
in who you're going out with.

I'm sure Ben's interested
in who you're going out with.

Which is why you're not gonna meet
who I'm going out with.

Because you're hiding something.

- I'm sorry I was rude to...
- Roxanne.

[CLEARS THROAT]

I'm going to apologise to her
and invite her inside

where I can find out more about her
and more about you.

- What does that mean?
- I've seen cop shows.

I know how these partnerships work.

[LUCY SIGHS]

[KEVIN SIGHS]

I'm sure there's a logical explanation.

Yeah, and I have one. Roxanne is--

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Captain Smith, um.

What are you, uh--?

What are you doing here?

You said if I was ever
in the neighbourhood

and needed
a good home-cooked meal,

just to drop on by. So I did.

Did I say that?

Well, please come in.
Any friend of Mary's is a friend of ours.

Oh, Reverend, Mrs. Camden,
Jack Smith. Nice to meet you.

We're just about to have dinner.
Do you like pot roast?

- I love pot roast.
- Good. Heh.

[GIBBERING]

[SMITH CLEARS THROAT]

So, Kevin,
how long have you been on the force?

I went to community college
for two years for background training,

then I started at the academy at 20

and I just transferred here from
Buffalo, New York, to be with Lucy.

Five years.

Thanks. I was having trouble
adding that up.

[ALL LAUGH]

LUCY:
What's going on?

Oh, we thought we'd, uh,
go out for a movie.

Well, uh, maybe Kevin and Lucy
should go along with you,

so you can all
get to know each other better.

You're right, Mom.
Why don't we all go out together?

LUCY:
Hmm.

"Mom"?

It was nice meeting you, sir.

By the way, you never said
how you and Mary know each other.

Well, I'm sorry.
I thought it was obvious.

We both work for the airlines.

And...?

And that's how we know each other,
officer.

It was nice meeting you.

- Yeah, it was, uh, interesting.
- Hope to see you again sometime.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye.

[SIGHS]

It's okay.

Mary told me
she used to date Kevin's brother.

I guess he's just, uh, curious.

Funny you should say that.

We've cleared off the table.
My boyfriend is coming over now.

Oh, I forgot to discuss this, uh,
little friend of Ruthie's with you.

Little friend?
Eisenhower is a little friend.

Ruthie's boyfriend's name
is Jake Davis.

Friend. Friend's name.

Lucy had a boyfriend at 12.

- No, it was 13.
- Yeah.

Still, I'm a lot more mature at 12
than Lucy was at 13.

In fact, I'm more mature at 12
than Lucy is now.

So why can't I have a boyfriend?

[GIBBERING]

We'll see. But for now,

why don't you just call Jake your friend,
if you want him to come over

and you don't want your father sitting
with you in the living room all night.

I'll sit in my living room all night

if I feel like sitting in my living room
all night.

[CHUCKLES]

I'm sorry about all this.

- Do you have daughters?
- Two.

One in college, one in high school.

My wife and I married very young.

You're married?

I'm widowed.

My wife died quite a few years ago.

Oh.

I'm sorry to hear that.

So am I.

Should we be going soon?

I'd kind of like to stay around.

I wanna know
if Mary's really dating him.

Dating?

She's not dating him.
Where'd you get an idea like that?

Women do date older men.
It happens all the time.

But he's way too old for Mary. And...

And he's a nice man. A nice man
who knows he's too old for Mary.

Nice man, no good.

Nice man, no good. I like Ben.

I like Ben.

RUTHIE:
Can you watch him while I change?

I smell like a chimp.

[GIBBERING]

No offence.

Is that guy downstairs
Mary's friend or Mary's date?

[SCOFFS]

Wow.

How did I miss that?

Could it be that you've become
so interested in boys you're slipping?

ROXANNE:
What's going on?

KEVIN:
I'm just suspicious about that pilot.

- Kevin, the movie starts in 5 minutes.
- We can see the movie any time.

- I hope this is important.
- It's important.

- What do you think the story is?
- If you tell her, tell the rest of us.

- Maybe it's confidential.
- Maybe it's not. Is it confidential?

- If it's police work, it's confidential.
- Could you two just stop it?

[IN UNISON]
Stop what?

No offence, but I don't think
this is your business.

I think it involves me
more than you.

- How's that?
- Roxanne and I are on a date,

and your girlfriend or fianc?e
or whatever she is

is so jealous
she's embarrassing herself.

- Oh, is that right?
- Yep. I have to agree with him.

Roxanne, you're single, right?

Do I need a lawyer present for this?

So being single,
you got yourself partnered

with the best-looking single guy
on the force.

Yeah, I find that a little suspicious.

You went to Detective Michaels
and asked him to put you with Kevin.

- Didn't you?
- Yes, I did.

Because he's a nice guy
and a good cop.

- And he's single.
- Okay, and he's single.

Oh, and he's not--
He's not just good-looking,

he's the best-looking guy
on the entire force. So I've confessed.

- What are you gonna do?
- Okay you two, stop it.

I said that 5 minutes ago.

So, Lucy, are you jealous
because I'm Kevin's partner

or because I'm on a date
with your old boyfriend?

What old boyfriend?

Lucy and I went out a couple times.
Didn't he know?

I never mentioned that?

In all this time,
I never mentioned that?

So if we're waiting here
just to tail Mary and that old geezer,

my bet is they're not even gonna
get out of the Camden house together.

- What are you talking about?
- As Ben's brother,

I owe it to him to find out
what Mary and her date are up to.

Date?

Did Ben know that you and Robbie
were together at one time?

Ha. We were never together.
We went out a couple times.

We were both on the rebound--

Excuse me.
I think it was a little more than that.

What date?
What are you talking about?

He's talking about
Mary and Captain Smith.

Did Ben know?

Okay. Could we just forget
about me and Robbie for a second?

I don't think so.

I'm sorry.
I didn't know he didn't know.

You think my sister
is actually dating that guy?

Yeah, I think that. And when
I confirmed it, I was gonna tell Ben.

But, hey, if my brother doesn't wanna
share information, then why should I?

[GRUNTS]

What are you doing?

I'm just getting ready to take Jack,
um,

Captain Smith, my friend, to the airport.
He has a late flight tonight.

That's a pretty nice dress
just to drive a friend to the airport.

I'm surprised they let him fly
on the later flights.

I mean, older people usually go to bed
pretty early, don't they?

He's not old.

He's practically as old as Dad.

He's older?

I don't know.

But I do know he's a very nice,
very smart, very successful man.

I agree. He's nice and smart
and successful and...

Come on. How old is he?

I told you I don't know,
and I don't care.

He's your friend
and you don't know how old he is?

I know, okay.
But no one else needs to know.

Are you two are just friends?

Yes, we're friends.

No, I asked you
if you were just friends.

We're friends.

- The kind of friends who date?
- Who wants to know?

I'd say everyone in the family,

plus anyone who sees the two of you
out together, plus Kevin,

probably Roxanne and Cecilia.

Oh, yeah, and Ben.
He'd probably wanna know too.

Well, it's really no one's business,
especially Ben's.

You can't seriously be dating a guy
that old.

I didn't say how old he is
and I didn't say we were dating.

All I said was we were friends.

Would you go out with him
if he asked you out on a date?

I ask because it looks like
you're going out on a date.

You want me
to put some lipstick on you?

Maybe some gloss, so you look really,
really pretty for your boyfriend?

Would that be the same gloss
you're wearing for your boyfriend?

[SIGHS]

If you ever feel a need
to talk about your wife,

please feel free to drop by my office.

I'm sure it's been a very difficult time
for you.

And-- And please, you know,
um,

we're happy to have any of Mary's
work friends at the house any time.

I might even have
a couple of nice women for you.

You know, I mean when you're ready
to go back and start dating again.

Mary told me how wonderful
both of you are.

And I really appreciate the offers.

But just so you know,
I did get some grief counselling

that was very helpful to me
when I was grieving.

It has been several years
since my wife died,

so I've kind of gotten back
into dating again and...

Ready to go, hon?

Yes, um, I'm gonna drop Captain Smith
at the airport and I'll be back late.

- Good night.
- Good night. Thanks for everything.

[WHISPERING]
"Hon"?

Hi. Is Ruthie home?

[EISENHOWER GIBBERING]

My feeling exactly.

Is he sick or something?

My sister Mary is dating a man
as old as he is.

Wow, cool.

Eric, uh, could I get your help
with something in the kitchen?

Hmm?

Oh.

You're doing great.

So far we've managed to avoid
all conversation.

That's been easy.
Your dad hasn't said anything.

He will. And remember,
yes and no answers,

and no explanations that
would draw him in.

Okay. I hope it works.

It's working already. Believe me,
he's gonna be right back in here.

Put your arm around me.

[SCREECHING]

Don't worry so much.

How many boyfriends
have we seen come and go?

It's nothing serious. You can't let
every little thing get to you.

The man's as old as I am.

- Oh, he's 12.
- Not that one, the other one.

Captain Smith's just a friend.

He called her "hon."

That doesn't mean anything.
I mean, they do work together.

Are you that naive?

Okay, even if they are dating,
you know,

sooner or later Ben's gonna show up

and convince her
he's still in love with her.

You will have spent this time
worrying for nothing.

I doubt it.
Did you need help with something?

Yeah, you can
give the boys their juice

and then read them a bedtime story
with me.

Fine, but it's gonna be quick.

I'm not leaving Romeo and Juliet alone
in the living room all night.

Would you rather be with
Lucy and her boyfriend

and that chimpanzee
than with me?

All right, if that's what you want,

just go back in the living room
and embarrass yourself.

Okay.

Hey. Cut that out.

Oh, Dad, we didn't see you.

Yes you did.
You saw me coming and then...

What's going on here?

- You better go home.
- I'll drive you.

Oh, that's okay.

My sister's been sitting outside,

just hoping
to get a glimpse of Simon.

Good night.

Twelve is an awkward age.

I'm too old for dolls
and too young for boys.

But I thought you wanted
Jake to be your boyfriend.

You saw how weird that was.

I mean, I just don't think I'm ready.

I don't think he's ready.

I just think what I need is

a pet.

But you have a pet. You have Happy.

That's Simon's dog.

No, Happy's, you know,
everybody's dog.

[SIGHS]

You want a dog?

What, a cat?

[GIBBERING]

A chimpanzee?

You want to keep Eisenhower?

That would be better
than my having a boyfriend at my age.

- Don't you think?
- Are you insane?

I'm sorry, I said that out loud. What?

Eisenhower is part of a study.

And the people doing the study
think that Eisenhower is getting too old

and too attached to Curtis,
and too protective.

Oh.

They think that tossing
banana pudding at Curtis' girlfriend

is an aggressive act.

And they wanna send Eisenhower
back to the lab,

unless Curtis can come up
with another solution.

Well, I'm the solution.
I can take care of him.

And I promise.

And I won't even have time
for boyfriends.

Please, please, please?

[SIGHS]

We can't keep him, Ruthie.
We can't have a chimpanzee.

This place is a circus already.

Besides, I don't think
we'd be allowed to take Eisenhower.

Uh, I'm not sure the people
who control the study would let us.

I'm overwhelmed by your enthusiasm
and encouragement.

Maybe Eisenhower and I should
just go upstairs and say a little prayer.

Maybe God will be more optimistic.

[SCOFFS]

[GIBBERING]

Not the eye roll.
She's too young for the eye roll.

[WHIMPERING]

Well, the boys are asleep,

and I just saw Ruthie
heading up to bed.

Ruthie just gave me the eye roll.

I thought we had at least
another year before that.

Well, girls are hitting puberty
early these days.

There's really nothing we can do
about it. Are you coming upstairs?

Not yet. There may be nothing
I can do about Ruthie, but--

- But what?
- I'll be up in a minute.

Fine. But during that minute,

you really should think about whatever
it is you're thinking about doing,

and don't do it.

Forgive me,
for I know just what I do.

I honestly thought you knew.
I did. I thought everyone knew.

I don't see what difference it makes.

So I went out with Robbie
once or twice. So what?

What's the big deal?

Okay, it was more than once or twice.
But it was only for a few weeks.

Maybe we went out a dozen times.

But it was only a month at the most.

Did you kiss him?

Did I kiss him? Did I kiss Robbie?

I'm taking a walk.

[SIGHS]

- What are you doing?
- What am I doing?

Kevin and Roxanne, they just--
They--

They didn't do anything.

He brought her over to introduce her
the day he got the assignment

because he didn't want you
to be jealous.

Well, I wouldn't be jealous of her
if I didn't have a reason to be jealous.

She wants Kevin.

Maybe, but the real question is
do you want him?

He's up to something.

Like?

I don't know. Sex, maybe.

You better have a talk with him.

Why don't you get, uh, Kevin
to have a talk with him?

- Why Kevin?
- Kevin's the new man, isn't he?

What?

That's what he thinks,
he's the oldest and smartest.

I don't think Kevin's interested
in being anyone's big brother.

I think he's only interested
in being my husband.

Either way,
he still gets to call your mother, "Mom."

Wait a minute.

You're jealous of Kevin?

Hey. Are you making out
with my girlfriend?

If I'm your girlfriend,

then why were you making out with
another girl right here, just last night?

Oh, wait.

Not just last night, the night before,
and the night before that.

- Look, could we talk?
- I don't know.

I'm on a date.

Please, I don't
wanna get in the middle here.

Why don't you work it out,
and if you can't,

then I hope you'll call me, Cecilia.

Ain't love grand?

Heh. So you've been playing
all your life?

Yeah, it's just my game's a little off
because--

- Because I remind you of your dad?
- No.

No. Heh, heh.
You don't remind me of my dad.

But I am nearly as old as your dad.

Which is why I left it to you to call me
if you wanted to go out with me.

And I do wanna go out with you.

And I've enjoyed going out with you
the past couple weeks.

But I didn't call you tonight,
and you just showed up

and now I have to explain things to
my parents that I didn't wanna explain.

You were never
going to invite me over.

I'm never gonna feel
comfortable going out with you

unless I know
your parents are comfortable.

It's just the kind of guy I am.

I don't wanna sneak around.

You're right. Heh.

It's best to get it all out in the open

if we're going to continue
going out with each other.

KEVIN:
But what about Ben?

Why don't I just wait over at the bar
with your friend?

Would you stay out of this?

I intended to stay out of this

and then I saw you two talking
and I couldn't stay out of it.

Has anyone mentioned
that that guy's your father's age?

What's a guy in his 40s
going out with a woman in her 20s for,

other than the obvious?

He's going out with me
for the same reason

any man goes out with any woman.

He likes me. He's interested in me.

Are you really that naive?

Stop acting like we're doing
something wrong, because we're not.

Captain Smith is a very smart man.

He's-- He's very responsible.
He's-- He's a nice man.

- He's-- He's--
- A pervert?

Listen to me.

If you're just going out with that loser
so I'll tell Ben, forget it.

I'm not gonna tell him anything.
And you shouldn't either.

Because I think
it'd just creep him out.

But call him.
He wants to hear from you.

And get rid of this loser.

He's my age. My age, I'm telling you.

- She's just doing this to get to you.
- I don't get it.

She's angry with you for going back
with your old girlfriend.

Well, so she's dating some guy
as old as you?

How's that getting back at me
for seeing my old girlfriend?

My old girlfriend's gorgeous
and she's my age.

So you are seeing her?

I wasn't, but I am now.

And you can tell Mary that.

Tell her I've decided
to go back with my old girlfriend.

I'm sorry I'm so late.

I heard about Eisenhower's
predicament,

and I'm sorry I can't help you out.
I mean, I'd love to take him, but--

That's okay.
I didn't really expect you to.

I, uh, got a little help
solving Eisenhower's problem

from the Research Department.

Oh.

[GIBBERING]

So, Ruthie, it looks as if Eisenhower
isn't going anywhere after all.

And my guess is he's also gonna be,
uh, happier at home.

Let's hope so.

Oh, here you go Ruthie.

Twenty dollars? That's a lot of money
for something I'd do for free.

Then...?

Oh, right.

It was my pleasure.

No, you earned it.

Maybe, but if you'd rather take it back,

donate it to the animal fund
of your choice, that'd be great.

Thanks, Ruthie. Thank you.

Other kids may be awkward at 12,
but you, you're something special.

Thanks.

And you know
what I've been thinking?

Maybe I'm not too young
for a boyfriend after all.

I kind of like that guy.

[PHONE DIALS
THEN BUSY SIGNAL BEEPING]

By the way,
how much did you charge her?

I didn't charge her anything.
She offered to pay me.

- How much did she pay you?
- Forty dollars.

Wow.

To make out with a woman
and make her boyfriend jealous?

There was some danger involved.
That guy could have hit me.

You're right.

What are your mom and dad
gonna think

if they hear you got money
for taking a girl out?

You get more and more
like a big brother every day.

Thanks. So you'll take my advice
and not do this again?

I can't promise that.

Then I can't promise
I won't say anything.

Wow, that was almost Matt-like.

[ERIC SIGHS]

Good night.

[IN UNISON]
Good night.

[PHONE DIALS

[GRUNTS]

I think your dad is up to something.

What's he up to?

Well?

He's holding the phone.

Ben, I imagine.

Probably.

Good night, Mom. Love you.

Love you too.

Good night.

Love you.

Love you too.

It was a pleasure meeting you, Lucy.

And I'm sorry we got off
to such a rocky start.

- Me too.
- Well, maybe I'll give Robbie a call

and the four of us can go out
for real next time?

Great. Good night.

LUCY:
Good night.

I still think she's a--

[CHUCKLES]

- I love you.
- I love you too.

It would be nice if you were ready
to make a commitment.

It would be nice if you were willing
to take a chance that someday I will.

But not now,
not until I'm really, really ready.

Good night.

Good night. Heh, heh.

[BUSY SIGNAL BEEPING]

Why is that some nights
you all come in the front door

and other nights
you all come in the back door?

The nights that the garbage cans
are blocking the street,

we park in the driveway
and come in back here.

- Other nights, we park on the street.
- Oh.

- Who are you calling?
- No one.

[CHUCKLES]

Good night.

[PHONE RINGING ON LINE]

Well, that was a long drive
to the airport.

- Say what you wanna say, okay?
- Okay.

He's too old for you.
Way too old for you.

I am an adult. I have a job.

I pay my bills.
I'm responsible around here,

and I'm responsible when I'm
not around here and I'm in Buffalo.

So I think that who I go out with
should be left up to me.

You are my dad, and I love you.

But I'm over 21 now,
and I think that I have to decide

who I wanna be with
for the rest of my life.

Rest of your life?

[PHONE RINGS]

- Hello?
- Did you just call me?

I star-69'd you.

It's for you.

Good night.

Hello?
