[MURMURING INDISTINCTLY]

As you remember, we were asking Mrs. Smith

this million dollar question:

What are the three most important organs

in the male body? And she says...

[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Keep smiling,

the sun might come out tomorrow,

but I'm here all week. Good night!

[UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYING]

Y'all give it up one more time

for the brightest comedian in town,

Mr. Sunshine, everybody, Mr. Sunshine.

Remember our drink specials tonight.

It's one dollar off all top shelf liquor,

and after midnight, all draft beers are two for one.

And don't forget that every Tuesday

we support the best in local comedy, right here,

at the Last Laugh Comedy Club.

Yeah. Aah...

Hey, buddy, you're performing tonight, right?

I think you're on.

You okay, buddy?

First time on stage.

Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Yeah, I remember my first time.

I was really prepared.

I knew the material inside and out,

completely memorized.

I knew when I wanted to sit down,

when to take a sip of water...

how long to pause between bits, everything.

Didn't matter.

I couldn't say a word, heh, heh.

Complete silence, heh-heh-heh...

until they all started booing and yelling.

Well, hell, I deserved it.

No one wants to watch some guy

stand up on stage saying nothing, right?

No matter how hard I tried,

I couldn't remember one goddamn bit,

just stood there, like an asshole,

like a real fucking asshole.

Still, there's nothing like that first time on stage,

you know what I mean?

Hm.

A real fucking asshole.

We gonna play a few songs,

and give everybody a chance to freshen up their drink,

until the next comedian is ready to hit the stage.

Uh, be careful there, buddy, be careful.

Uh, you can go on in, ain't no cover tonight.

I'm performing.

Oh, okay.

- Ah, is that you? - That's me.

Well, I sure hope you're funnier than you are punctual.

Next time, try to get here before we close it up, you dig?

There won't be a next time.

Aw, man.

Loosen up, brother. Loosen up, man.

Look, I'm Randall.

I own the joint.

[CHUCKLES] Finally got that itch, huh?

Well, listen,

you got seven minutes, if you can fill it up.

Just get up there and have fun. You'll be fine.

How do you like to be introduced?

My name is fine.

I like that. I like that. That's old school.

Just your name. Like I said, bro,

just have fun with it.

Ladies and gentlemen, please give a very warm welcome

to a brand new face in local comedy,

Mr. Denny Briggs, everybody!

Denny Briggs!

[AUDIENCE CLAPPING AND CHEERING]

[INHALES SHARPLY]

I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,

and nothing but the truth, so help me God.

The truth is, I'm gonna die up here tonight.

[SCATTERED LAUGHS]

Now, the truth is the funniest thing in comedy.

It's what we can all relate to,

our work, our relationships,

love, lust, jealousy, hate,

family.

It's these truths that make comedy funny.

So tonight I'm on trial...

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

...and you, you are my jury.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

Now, if you laugh at the things that I say,

well, it means that I'm telling the truth,

and the harder that you laugh, the guiltier I become.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

You see, I'm on trial for murder.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

And if found guilty of this crime,

I will take a gun, put it against my temple,

pull the trigger, and blow my brains out.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS]

I recently lost my job.

AUDIENCE [IN UNISON]: Aw.

Yeah, I was, uh, fired from a company that I worked at

for over 17 loyal years.

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Kill the bastards!

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHS] - Stop heckling!

Yeah, get us another round.

This guy's beyond the fringe.

So I went looking for another job,

something new, something, uh, different,

but I realized that I lacked the skills necessary

to improve my situation.

So I did what any of you would have done,

I lied on the job application.

- [AUDIENCE APPLAUDS AND LAUGHS] - And that, ladies and gentlemen

of the jury, is the God's honest truth.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDS]

Says here you have 10 plus years of restaurant experience?

- Yes, sir. - Wow.

[SOFT JAZZ PLAYING]

Ah, let's see, Olive Garden, Chili's,

Applebee's, Lone Star, Macaroni Grill, Fuddruckers

[CHUCKLES] Buca di Beppo, Joe's Crab Shack,

Cheesecake Factory, boy, oh, boy, Bob Evans, Texas Roadhouse,

this is a lot of restaurants.

Yes sir, all the big ones.

Miller's is a... family restaurant, Denny.

- Do you know what that is? - Um...

it's owned by a family.

Your family?

Yeah.

At Miller's, we give our customers

that, uh, extra attention you wouldn't normally get

at your typical chain restaurant.

We get to know our customers,

ask them, "How's your day?

How are your kids doing?" Uh...

"What's new at work?"

Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

You understand what I'm saying?

Yeah, I think so.

Every customer that walks through that door

is like another member of the Miller's family.

That's a pretty big family.

[CHUCKLES] I opened this restaurant

with the idea that great home-cooked meals,

at a reasonable price, and world-class customer service

would never go out of style.

And I am proud to say that after 19 years in business,

we have stuck to that original plan.

Did you know that every meal we serve

is cooked using a traditional family recipe

passed down from my great- great-grandmother?

- I didn't know that. - Yeah.

Linda! Linda, get your hot buns out here!

Who's Linda?

- She's my wife. - Oh.

LLOYD: Linda... Oh.

[SIGHS]

Here you go.

Linda, I want you to tell Mr. Briggs

about our world-famous sticky buns.

Lloyd Zane Miller, honey, please, I'm busy.

Have you heard about our world- famous sticky buns, Denny?

Linda?

Miller's world-famous sticky buns

are a Miller's family tradition.

Each and every meal starts with a fresh basket

of oven-warmed, cinnamon-flavored sticky buns

for your family to enjoy.

But be careful, don't fill up

before your home-cooked meal has arrived.

And when you're finished, every customer...

Every customer takes home a sticky bun

to enjoy for a late night snack, as a reminder

of the Miller's family restaurant experience.

- [CHUCKLES] - Can I go?

Yes, thank you, darling.

A pleasure.

Yeah.

Dig in.

[CHUCKLES] Yeah.

Yeah?

[CHUCKLES] Huh?

Now, I, uh, see here that you mention...

writing as one of your interests.

What do you enjoy writing about?

[CLEARS THROAT]

I like comedy.

There's nothing funny about the restaurant business, Denny.

I wasn't saying that I...

[LAUGHS] Only kidding.

I'm only kidding. Actually, I, uh...

enjoy writing, myself.

- Can I show you something? - Sure.

[CLEARS THROAT]

You know what this is?

A menu.

This is what I refer to

as the Miller's dining Bible.

Hm?

Take a look at that. You know who wrote that?

- You. - Yep.

I wrote that the day I opened this restaurant.

I had $100 left in my pocket.

And next month, we're celebrating

our 20-year anniversary.

How about that?

[SIGHS] But I think it's time to update this story.

I want you to take this home.

Read it, memorize it,

a better understanding of the Miller's experience.

Okay.

I like you, Denny.

And maybe, maybe if things work out,

you can help me write what I am, uh, going to call

the New Testament

of Miller's family dining.

Okay.

Have you met this family?

The one that suffered through generations of hardships,

traveled from the old country to a new land,

with nothing but hope in their pockets,

worked their fingers to the bone,

and now own a successful

and thriving family-owned business?

It's kinda sickening isn't it?

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

My family hates that family.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

Maybe you've met my family.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

We're the ones pushing our way

into the restaurant...

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHS] - ...loud, obnoxious,

gorging ourselves on-on free bread and refills.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

Send the meal back three times:

"We want our next meal for free."

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

We're in the wrong line at the store,

too loud at the movies, the neighbors

they forgot to tell you about when you bought the house.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

We sit behind you at church.

"Oh, I'm happy to see the family partaking in the word

of the Lord this glorious Sunday!"

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

Are you kidding me?

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

More like partaking in the Holy Communion.

Or as my family likes to call it,

the Lord's breakfast buffet.

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHING] - Yeah, yeah...

- [AUDIENCE CLAPPING] - A little bit of bread,

a long pull of wine, and then back in line.

That's the family motto.

There's no coat of arms where I come from.

Our sacred family crest is the image of a woman

working a scratcher

with the family's very last welfare nickel.

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHS] - Yeah.

Yeah, that's, uh... That's the truth.

You know us all too well.

And sometimes, the truth hurts.

[♪♪♪]

So what period you got next?

I've got math.

- Did you do your homework? - Yes, okay?

I did.

- I did it last period. - All right, Denny,

you just gotta get those grades up.

I don't have any more D's, okay?

I think they're fine, okay?

- All right. - It's not like Mom's...

[EXHALES] Well,

Looks like it's time to take out the trash. Heh.

White trash, that is.

Oh, that's original.

Can't afford your own lunches,

or she already eat yours?

Fuck off, asshole.

Nice mouth, bitch.

Nice training bra, slut.

You're a real fat fuck, you know that, right?

Shut up.

What was that, fat fuck?

No, seriously, try losing some weight.

It's disgusting.

Right, Mike?

Yeah. Like a hundred pounds.

Ah-ah-ah!

Where do you think you're going, Turtle Man?

Don't call him that!

Sweetheart, I'll call him whatever I wanna call him...

Turtle Man.

So slow he took the 10th grade...

twice.

[CHUCKLES]

Hey, Aaron, how about this?

The tortoise and the hair.

- MIKE: Oh-ho-ho. - Don't ever touch me again.

Oh... I'm really scared now, you fat fuck.

What are you gonna do about this?

You touch him again, and I will kill you.

- Really? - MIKE: Do it.

- [GRUNTS] - [SCREAMS]

Christ.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

I'm bleeding.

Denny, let's go.

You did it now, you fat bitch!

I called your parents,

and, as usual, nobody answered.

Listen, Madison, I know you're having

a tough time fitting in at school,

you and your brother,

but how can I help

if you're unwilling to help yourself?

Help myself?

What do you expect me to do,

sit there while your student of the month makes fun of us?

Name calling.

You were angry

because they were calling you names.

You can't get into a fight

every time someone calls you something you don't like.

I've dealt with these situations before.

I have 1200 students in this school,

and there are rules in place for everyone to follow.

There's a mandatory three-day suspension for fighting.

I need both you

- and your parents to sign. - No.

- Madison... - No.

Let's go.

Sit down!

Don't worry.

We're not coming back.

So you can take your school

and its 1200 students, and you can shove 'em

up your fat-fuck ass!

At Miller's Family Restaurant,

we're ready to serve you, just like we've been

serving our own family for generations.

At Miller's, we're dedicated to serving you

great home-cooked meals, at affordable prices,

with world-class customer service.

Whether you choose our famous meatloaf and mashed potatoes,

a bowl of our homemade tomato rice soup,

or one of our daily specials,

you'll always enjoy the great taste of home.

Each and every meal starts with a fresh basket

of oven-warmed, cinnamon-flavored sticky buns.

And don't forget a slice of apple pie

topped with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

Founded by Lloyd Miller,

based on recipes passed down

from his great-great-grandmother,

Miller's would like to dedicate its menu

to the people and communities it serves.

That too.

Okay.

[DOOR BUZZES]

Hey.

Hey, Mads.

Got any good jokes for me?

Um...

No.

No, I... You?

Cheeseburger walks into a bar.

Bartender says, "Hey, buddy!

We don't serve food in here."

[CHUCKLES]

It's good to see you.

It's good to see you.

Where were you last week?

Something came up.

What came up?

Actually, I had to find a new job.

[SIGHS]

Funny, I forgot the part

where you mentioned you were looking.

I thought you liked the warehouse.

I just thought it was time for a change,

so I'm gonna be a waiter in a restaurant.

Really?

I heard they have those there.

Yeah.

What restaurant?

It's a little place.

You wouldn't know it.

I would have said something. I-I would have told you sooner,

just, it all happened really quick.

Well, I have some news,

I mean, that is if you're even interested.

Of course.

We're gonna be a family again, after all these years.

[♪♪♪]

What do you mean?

I mean, brother and sister...

a real family.

We are a real family.

Not like other families, we're not.

Not like this.

You know I love you, right, Denny?

Of course.

And you love me just the same as you always have, right?

Madison, what is it? You're starting to scare me.

I got parole.

I'm getting released at the end of the month.

I-I'm gonna be on probation,

but I'll be allowed to work a-and travel some.

Denny, say something, please.

Sorry, I just... I wasn't prepared.

It's okay.

It's gonna be all right, you know?

Just like when we were kids.

I'll make it better this time.

[GLASS CLATTERS] Whoa, hey. Shaun.

Hey.

Denny!

Hi.

Hi, let me take a look at you.

[STAMMERS] I'm sorry.

Oh, no, it doesn't have to be perfect,

- just presentable. - Okay.

Okay? I'm going to have you

cover all two tops and help with takeouts.

Uh, have you met Shaun?

And Sarah, and that's Mandel.

Sarah preps, does short order, and answers takeouts.

Mandel is our amazing and talented chef.

And Shaun, can't forget Shaun,

[CHUCKLES] he cleans, does the dishes, and closes the kitchen.

Um, what else?

Oh, your passcode

for the register is "sticky."

That's S-T-I-C-K-Y.

And tonight I'm going to have you do inventory,

so I can close the books on Friday.

- Okay. - Okay?

- Okay. - Go ahead, get going.

Oh, hold on.

God forbid you forget these.

Okay.

Oh.

Sorry.

[SOFT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

Denny.

- Hey. - Hey.

You're gonna be great.

Just remember, treat 'em like our family.

- Okay. Yep. - Okay.

[CHUCKLES]

Hello.

- ALL: Hello. - How's everyone doing?

We're starving.

Me too. I didn't eat breakfast.

That's never a good idea.

Breakfast is the most

important meal of the day.

I think so too.

I'm sorry, could we get

some drinks and the menus?

Well, sir you want, uh, you... Waters?

- Waters are good. - Waters'll be fine.

Waters, great.

So you taking the day off today?

Excuse me?

It was Monday, and I thought maybe

you were taking time off to spend with the family.

- [SIGHS] - I think that's really great.

Dad lost his job.

Sweetheart, don't say that about your father!

- Well, he did. - Oh, I didn't...

I didn't lose it.

I'm just taking a little time off.

- [SIGHS] - You know, I lost my last job,

and I thought I'd take some time off too,

but then, it was...

- Gotta get back to work... - I didn't

lose my job.

Could we please just get the menus

and order some goddamn food!

- Dad, you're embarrassing us! - Sweetheart.

This is ridiculous.

I don't need to be

interrogated by some waiter!

Hi, folks!

What seems to be the problem?

His waiting style,

it is not very appropriate.

I'm sorry, it's his first day.

Then maybe you should first teach him

some good old family manners.

Absolutely. We'll talk.

Hey! How 'bout this,

first off, you've got the complimentary sticky buns,

I'd love to bring out a cup of delicious

homemade tomato rice soup, on the house? How does that sound?

- All right. - Beverages coming up!

Okay.

You can only order something that's six dollars or less.

I was...

Don't beat yourself up.

[STUTTERS] You said family, and I was, I was trying to...

You're doing great. Look...

even in a family, sometimes people are touchy,

and, uh, it happens. Don't worry about it.

Back on the bicycle.

- Okay? - Okay.

Four cups tomato rice soup,

we're gonna comp them.

Should I get the waters? First?

Get the waters first, good thinking,

uh, and some lemon,

and maybe a little more ice in the pitcher.

Okay.

Doing great, Denny.

Back in the kitchen.

- Okay. - Yeah.

[♪♪♪]

Come on guys, we need to get going!

You know what?

Why don't you do the honors?

Okay.

All right, Monday,

what do we got?

I vote Mandel's meatloaf

and mashed potato Monday.

- LLOYD: Too spicy. - MANDEL: I can cut down

on the jalapenos.

Come on, all in favor?

- Yeah! - All right.

How about, uh, chicken pot pie Tuesday?

ALL: Ah.

I'm gonna put you to work in the kitchen.

Yeah, how long has he been here now?

Uh, I don't know, what, like three weeks?

SHAUN & MANDEL: Three weeks!

Ha, ha! Come on!

You guys know what that means?

- MANDEL: I sure do. - Don't you go

scaring him away just yet.

What?

Oh, you don't...

You don't really wanna know.

No, I do. I wanna know.

Well, it's a Miller family tradition

to take the newest member of our family

out on the town for some fun

- and spirits. - Mm-hm.

That is not a family tradition.

No, in fact, it's more of an excuse

for Mandel and Shaun to get piss-ass drunk.

You know what? You can call it what you will,

the fact remains, we all still have to go out and formally,

you know, welcome Denny to the family. Ha-ha-ha!

I mean, I don't really drink much.

MANDEL: That's okay. We do.

I do not want everyone showin' up

with a hangover tomorrow.

SHAUN & MANDEL: Yes, Grandpa Miller.

I do have tomorrow off, though.

- Ooh. - You should not have said that.

Come on, what do you guys say?

Linda...

- Mm... - Oh, no.

Sarah?

- Come on! - Mm, okay, okay, come on, Linda,

we'll just have a couple.

- Famous last words. - Ha-ha-ha.

Come on, Lloyd, wanna get a drink tonight?

LLOYD: No. You go ahead.

I am trusting you to get these kids home

at a reasonable hour.

- Grandpa knows best. - He does, he does.

LLOYD: I'm as young today as the day I opened this joint.

- It's your wisdom we admire. - LLOYD: Yeah,

well wise up to this then, before you go,

one of you wisenheimers has to hightail it in

to the women's bathroom. The toilet's clogged up again.

- Come on. - Yes!

[LINDA, LLOYD, & MANDEL LAUGH]

- You always win! - Bye-bye!

Okay, Wednesdays.

LLOYD: All right, Wednesdays.

Wisenheimer pie?

ALL: Wisenheimer pie.

[ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

You guys, all right.

A family that gets drunk together, sleeps together.

[LAUGHS] Wait, wait, no. That's... Is that right?

[LAUGHS] This is coming out of your mouth, no.

SARAH: Anyway.

So, Denny, what do you do for fun?

Not much.

Yeah, you don't have

any hobbies or anything?

Yeah, actually, I collect comedy albums.

That's unique.

What got you into that?

DENNY: A couple years ago, I went

to one of those record exchange stores.

I was looking through bins of music,

and I came across this album.

And it was a compilation of all these different comedians.

And something told me to buy it, so I did.

And whenever I was

lonely or, you know, feeling down,

or just kinda needed to laugh,

I'd put it on, and it would instantly make me feel better.

Who's your favorite comedian?

- Lenny Bruce. - SARAH: Who's Lenny Bruce?

Lenny Bruce was kind of a comedic martyr.

Very controversial.

He died of a drug overdose years ago.

He was a pretty big influence for a lot of modern comics.

Have you heard of, uh, Nick Swardson?

Is he on vinyl albums?

[LAUGHING] I have no idea,

but he's really... He's really fucking funny.

DENNY: I'll have to check him out.

SARAH: What about you, do you ever think about

doing stand-up sometime?

Maybe someday.

I think you should do it.

Come on. Let's hear a joke.

I wouldn't do jokes or one-liners,

n-not that kind of comedy.

SHAUN: Come on, man. Lay one on us. Come on!

Come on, let's hear something.

Um... Okay,

so this cheeseburger...

He's got a night off from the grill,

so he decides to go to a bar and have a drink.

And right away, the bartender just goes, "Hey, buddy!

We don't serve food here."

- [LAUGHING] - [MANDEL LAUGHING]

SARAH: That's cute.

Oh, I really don't get that, though.

- [LAUGHS] - Seriously, what?

[CHUCKLES] Oh! You know, I almost forgot,

my parents are dropping off my little brother

at the restaurant this weekend.

He won his 40-meter dash at gym class,

so I'm gonna make him his favorite meal,

stuffed green peppers, mashed potatoes, the works.

That is adorable.

Your little brother Nicholas?

"Nick the Quick" they call him around the house.

That's what my girlfriend says about me! Ha, ha!

SARAH: I bet she does.

Hey?

Have I mentioned a little something else coming up

- called my birthday? - Wow.

I'm turning 50, I'm proud to say.

DENNY: Linda, you do not look 50.

Bless his heart.

Are you doing anything for it?

Anything special planned?

I'm working,

the cost of owning your own business.

But Lloyd is taking me out to a movie,

and then we are going home and having wild, passionate sex.

Jeez.

WAITRESS: Okay, here we go.

Family that sleeps together, huh?

Thanks!

WAITRESS: You're welcome.

[EXHALES]

And it's seventeen fifty.

- LINDA: Oh, no. - MANDEL: Now...

may we all raise our glasses.

I'd like to make a toast to Denny.

Although we may not be brothers in blood...

[LAUGHING] Are you sure? How could you tell?

- MANDEL: Please, Shaun. - SHAUN: Oh, shit.

MANDEL: I'm trying to welcome him to our family

of cold-weather restaurant misfits.

[SIGHS] May all of your customers tip heavy,

and all of the heavy customers

stay out of the women's bathroom.

- SARAH: Amen. - Amen.

- LINDA: Salut! - DENNY: Here, here!

- LINDA: Oh! - [ALL CHUCKLE]

Ahh...

MANDEL: Whoo!

You.

Give this to me again.

Who... ate... the cheeseburger?

[MUSIC POURS OUT OF OPEN DOOR]

Are you sure I can't give you a ride home?

You know, I'm thinking maybe, uh,

maybe you shouldn't be driving.

- Oh, no, I'm okay. - Okay.

I live really close.

- I usually walk to work, actually. - Okay.

In fact, you could take my car if you want.

You know, I'm a pretty big fan of public transportation.

- Really? - Yeah.

Yeah, plus I don't have my driver's license.

- Heh, heh. No. - What?

[LAUGHS] What? Why?

- Oh, I like the bus. - [LAUGHS]

You know, you'd be surprised,

but there's a lot of interesting people on the bus.

- I bet. - Yeah.

I like your hair.

It's like a bunch of different shades of brown,

it's like, a little red... I like it.

Thank you.

Hey, you know, we're having a party,

a surprise party for Linda this weekend at my apartment.

I would've told you sooner but it's just,

we kind of have a high turnover rate

- at the restaurant and... - Well, the week's not over yet.

- [LAUGHS] Oh, okay. - I could be...

- Pfft... gone. - All right.

Well, if you decide to hang in there, you should come.

It'll be a lot of fun.

- Consider yourself officially invited. - Okay.

I think that I will be there.

Good.

You know, you could bring some of your comedy albums too.

That'd be fun, don't you think?

You could be, like, our DJ.

- Sir Jokes-a-lot... - [CHUCKLES]

- ...or something funny. - [BOTH LAUGH]

[LAUGHING] We'll... We'll work on the name, but...

- Okay. - Heh-heh-heh, yeah, okay, sure,

I'll bring a few. Sure.

- Cool. - Cool.

- Well, I'll see you there. - Okay.

Um, considering you had zero restaurant experience? Yeah.

- goes on a Caesar salad! - I never had one before.

Well, your secret is safe.

So what were you doing before the service industry

- came calling, anyway? - Um...

Actually, I drove a forklift in a warehouse.

That sounds extremely exciting.

Oh yeah, yeah, it was a real dream job.

- Heh. I bet. - Yeah.

Wait a minute. Okay, so you were driving a forklift,

but you don't have a driver's license?

You'd think that after 17 years,

somebody would have asked, but...

I mean, I was gonna go to NASA and fly spaceships,

but then, you know, I got the job at Miller's, so...

- Oh, yeah, sure. - Couldn't do that.

Heh, heh. So why the change?

DENNY: Actually, I was listening to one of my Lenny Bruce albums,

and on it he's doing this bit

that I've heard a thousand times,

I mean, I could do it word for word.

And for some reason, I heard it differently

than any other time before that.

So I'm at my house,

just... laughing to myself, and it hit me.

I realized that the reason it was so different

because what he was saying was absolutely the truth.

And the truth in itself is funny.

Heh, heh. And so, I'm at work the next day,

on my forklift,

and I just start laughing.

I mean, out of control laughing, and I couldn't stop.

I mean, I had tears, like, running down my face,

and I couldn't see straight, and I'm crashing into things,

and my coworkers are running for their lives.

And it hit me,

I hated driving a forklift for a living.

That's the truth.

You know, and the fact that it took me 17 years to realize it

was just... Heh, it was hysterical.

- So you quit. - No, they fired me.

- Oh, no! - They brought me in

and-and they looked at my record,

and they saw that I had no driving credentials,

so they, uh, they-they let me go.

- [LAUGHING] - Yeah.

- I'm sorry. - It's all right.

I don't mean to laugh, but it's very funny.

After that, I ended up applying to the restaurant,

and, you know, getting the job...

It's been good.

I'm learning a lot of new things.

- Well, good. That's the way life should be. - Yeah.

Have you ever had an experience that changed your life?

Yeah. Um... my daughter.

Wow...

- You have a daughter. That's cool. - Yeah.

Her name is Isabella. She's 6.

She's amazing. She's the reason I get up every day.

- Wow. - Yeah.

I'm really proud of her, heh.

- She's... - Yeah, I've never really

spent much time with kids, you know,

except when I was one, but even then...

- That's her. - Wow.

Oh, wow, she's beautiful.

Thank you.

I hope to meet her sometime.

Oh, you will... at the party. She's bartending.

Oh, okay. Good.

No, I'm-I'm... I'm joking.

- Heh! - Heh! Wow.

You are very gullible.

Thank you.

Yeah, I wanted to actually be a music teacher

before Isabella was born.

But as life turns out, you know,

I got pregnant and had her,

and now I wouldn't really change it

for anything in the world.

- So do you play any instruments? - Yeah!

I play the piano and I sing a little too,

but it's just not as good, heh, heh.

I'm teaching Isabella to play

- and she just... She loves it. - That's amazing.

Yeah, I don't know about that, but...

[LAUGHS]

No, it's good for me. It's...

Music's always kind of been a way for me to cope

when life's a little hard.

You probably feel the same about your comedy records.

Well, I should get going, I have the babysitter waiting.

- Okay. - Um,

it was really nice talking to you.

Yeah, you too.

I'll see you tomorrow?

Actually, I'm taking tomorrow off.

There's someth... Someone I'm meeting.

- Lucky lady, perhaps? - Hah, hah.

- My sister. - Oh.

I didn't know that you had a sister.

Yeah.

- Such a man of mystery. - Hah!

DENNY: I swear to tell the truth,

the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,

so help me God.

And can you please state your relationship

- to the defendant? - She's my sister.

PROSECUTOR: And can you please identify your sister

- for us in this courtroom? - She's over there.

Thank you. Let's go back to the day in question,

February 18th.

I'd like you to walk us through the details of that day.

Tell us everything you can remember.

- Can you do that for us? - I remember her

waking me up for school.

[♪♪♪]

Mom and Dad were sleeping,

so she made me a bowl of cereal.

- PROSECUTOR: And then? - DENNY: She didn't eat.

She thinks that she's too fat and I'm too skinny.

We went outside and waited for the bus.

I think school was a better place than being at home.

- Did you get to school? - Yes,

but we were in different grades,

so we don't have class together, except for lunch.

And it was during that lunch period

that your sister got into the fight.

DENNY: Yes, but she didn't start it.

PROSECUTOR: She broke that boy's nose.

- I hope so. - Is that when you and your sister

- went to the principal's office? - DENNY: Yes.

PROSECUTOR: Was your sister angry?

She was frustrated.

PROSECUTOR: Is that when your sister decided

that the two of you should skip school?

We weren't just skipping. We were never coming back.

- Where did you go? - We took the city bus,

we went home...

CALISTA: Don't you give me that look!

Worthless fucking excuses for children.

- That's all we have here. - [YELPS]

I swear to fucking God, we're gonna kill the both of you

if things don't start to change around here.

You think we want to spend every minute

worrying about your fucking problems?

- Listen to your mom! - [WHIMPERS]

FELIX: You!

I told you...

we ain't raising

no goddamn sissy fagots in this household, boy!

It's time you grew up

and started acting like a man.

PROSECUTOR: Were your parents angry about what had happened at school?

Because this had happened many times before.

They wouldn't listen to us. They never listened.

Ah, is that when Madison went to get the gun?

Is that when Madison went to the back room

to get the gun?

Is that when Madison left to get the gun?

- DENNY: Yes. - FELIX: Look at me when I'm

You waiting for your family, or...?

- Nope. It's just me. - Oh, okay.

Hey...

you're not Mandel's brother, by chance?

Why? Because I'm black?

No, it's 'cause you're good-looking.

- Heh. It runs in the family. - Yeah, I'll bet.

- Hey, Nicholas. - Oh, hey, Sarah.

I heard that you won a race at your school.

- Yep! - Dang! That is awesome!

- All right, I'm gonna go get your brother. - Okay.

Do you want some sticky buns or some pop while you wait?

Can I get a water instead? I'm in training.

That is the cutest thing ever. You got it. I'll be right back.

- So you're in training? - Yep, I'm pretty fast.

You think you're faster than me?

Come on.

I know, I'm a grown up, and I may not look it,

- but I'm a pretty athletic guy. - In your dreams.

- You wanna find out? - Find out what?

- Who's faster. - You? Race me?

- That's what I'm saying. - You're crazy.

- Well? - Wait a minute.

- In here? - Out there.

Oh, let me see.

Okay, sure,

but you're not gonna win.

DENNY: How far is 40 meters?

NICHOLAS: Uh, no, no...

- Oh! To that pole! - DENNY: That pole right there.

- Yeah, that one. - MANDEL: Hey, Nick!

- Oh, hey, Mandel! - MANDEL: What's going on?

About to find out who the fastest man in Wisconsin is.

Be careful, I don't want anyone getting hurt.

What the heck is everybody doing outside?

We got a restaurant to run in here.

Denny's racing Nick.

What? Hah!

That's preposterous! Heck, I could beat him.

DENNY: I just heard that.

LLOYD: Wanna put a little money on that?

DENNY: I'll take that bet, Grandpa.

LINDA: What in God's name is going on out here?

SARAH: Your husband and Denny are about to have heart attacks.

- MANDEL: They're racing Nick. - Gonna race with that?

LINDA: What do you think you're doing,

you're in no shape to be playing around,

- You're going to hurt yourself. - LLOYD: Hush up, woman,

I'm in the best shape of my life. Don't say it.

DENNY: Mandel, would you do the honors?

MANDEL: Sure.

- On your marks... - SARAH: Oh, I can't...

Get set...

- What-what's the finish line? - Just run.

- Go! - What's the finish line?

- [ALL SHOUTING] - Run, grandpa, run!

MAN [ON TV]: Chicago has a rhythm to it, and a pulse to it,

that you just don't find in other places.

Come, traveler, and discover

one of the world's most fascinating cities.

Chicago is something you've just

gotta experience for yourself.

Somebody needs to refill the salt and pepper shakers!

We know. Honey, please stop driving us all nuts,

just, you know, relax, and keep that ice on your leg.

Ow. Nobody told me where the finish line was.

How am I expected to win the race

if I don't know where the finish line is?

- I want a rematch. - LINDA: That's not a good idea.

Heh, heh! I think it's a great idea.

Kitchen's prepped for tomorrow. We good?

LLOYD: Did we wipe down the tables?

- SARAH: No, I'll do it, though. - DENNY: I can help.

Yeah, I'll help you and I'll lock up.

- SARAH: Okay. - Hm.

Okay, follow me.

- Don't call me Grandpa. - Hey.

- [LAUGHTER] - LLOYD: Ow-ow-ow! Boy. Oh, boy.

LINDA: Come on, big guy, let's get you home.

You need to heal up

for the restaurant's anniversary next week.

LLOYD: Yeah, that's not what you want me healed up for, woman.

- MANDEL: Ooh, damn. - [LLOYD LAUGHS]

LINDA: Wow, fantasy thinking, baby...

[♪♪♪]

- Would you care for a late night snack? - Sure.

- Mm-mm. - These are good.

That was really nice, what you did earlier.

- Hm? - Letting Nicholas win.

I was actually trying to beat him.

- Sure you were. - Mm...

It seems as if the beautiful young lady's

calling the nice young man a fibber.

[GASPS] She most certainly is.

I hope that we can find some way

for her to give him back some trust.

Why don't you just come over here

and give me a big tomato smoochie.

- [SMOOCHES] - Smoochie?

Maybe that's enough.

- Hey, can I show you something? - Of course.

So... I been working on some text for the new menu.

I wanna know what you think.

Does Lloyd know about this?

No. I was gonna surprise him at the anniversary.

And I was hoping maybe if it's good,

he could use a couple of the ideas.

"At Miller's family restaurant, you don't have to be related..."

Could you just maybe read it to yourself, please?

- Okay. - Thank you.

I mean, you're the artist.

[♪♪♪]

This is really nice.

- You think so? - Yeah, Lloyd is gonna love this.

When I read the menu for the first time...

The fact that his grandmother passed all those recipes down...

The idea of family traditions...

I just, I think it's really great.

- And what about your family? - Oh, my parents...

- They died a long time ago. - Oh...

I'm sorry, I didn't know. You mentioned a sister?

Yeah. She's, um...

Let's just say we didn't really have

the most traditional family upbringing.

Well, I mean, who does?

I mean, I've been raising Isabella on my own

from the very beginning, and it's definitely challenging.

But I mean, like, she's the best thing

that ever happened to me.

I do wonder sometimes, though,

what my life would have been like

if I didn't have her so young.

I just, I think I missed out on a lot.

I kind of think I would've been an amazing music teacher.

- Well, you probably are with her. - Awe, thank you.

So what about her dad?

Oh. Uh... Heh, heh!

- That was a big mistake. - [SMACKS LIPS]

Uh, he is way out of the picture,

which is a good thing.

I mean, I think that it's really important

for children to have a father,

but it just didn't work out that way.

So then, what about a boyfriend?

I feel like she's a little young to be dating, but...

- I meant you. - [CHUCKLES]

Uh, no.

I don't really have time to date.

- Time is what I have. - Yeah?

Yeah, plenty of time.

It's like I could probably open up a clock shop.

[CHUCKLES] You know, you really are funny.

You should incorporate all of that,

that whole bit, into your act if you ever go on stage.

There's actually... There's this place in town

that does an open mic, so...

- Yeah, we'll see. - I'm just saying some...

Some girls like a guy that takes a chance.

I'm gonna tell you something,

but you have to promise not to say anything.

All right.

- Pinky promise. - I promise.

[♪♪♪]

Okay.

The story on the menu...

It's fake.

There's no great grandmother

with a traditional family recipe.

Lloyd comes from a broken family,

and for whatever reason,

he stopped talking to his family years ago.

He met Linda and they got married,

but then she couldn't have kids,

so they opened the restaurant

and they've always just kind of

made their employees feel like family,

which is why I love it so much.

I don't know. I feel like the story on the menu

is probably something Lloyd wished he had.

You know, when you carry a lie like that

around with you long enough,

you start to believe it's the truth.

- But don't tell anyone I told you. - No.

- I didn't mean to kill the mood. - No, it's fine.

Give me a smile then.

That's pathetic.

Give me a better one or this is going right in your face.

Weak.

- Holy shit! - [DENNY LAUGHS]

Oh man, those things are sticky.

- Just don't. - This one's real sticky.

Come out with you? Where?

I don't know. It doesn't matter. Just out.

Madison, it's late. I gotta work in the morning.

Just for a little while.

There's something we need to talk about.

Can't we just talk about it here?

Welcome to Friends.

We're out of the clam chowder, turkey breast dinner,

blackened chicken sandwich.

Forget about the Cajun pasta or the fish and chips.

And I'm not even sure why key lime pie is on that menu.

I've never seen it.

- So, what can I get you to drink? - I'm afraid to ask.

- I'll have a coffee, black. - Same.

See, that's no way to greet a table.

I mean, especially if you're hoping for chances

You heard the one about the restaurant

- that promotes safe sex? - Huh?

that way you can wine and dine your date

and stick her with the bill.

That's great, Seinfeld. What do you guys want?

- I'm good with coffee. - I'm okay.

Suit yourselves.

So, what did you want to talk about?

I've decided we're moving to Chicago.

Why?

Why? I can think about a hundred reasons why.

Chicago?

Yeah, I've been thinking about it.

There's no reason for us to stay here.

We'll get a fresh start.

Chicago's within my parole limits,

and it's a great city with a lot of opportunities.

Maybe you haven't had enough time

to really think this through, Madison.

I've had 20 years to think it through, Denny.

What exactly do you expect me to do here?

Go back and finish high school?

Catch up with some old friends?

There's nothing for me, for us, here

except trouble and bad memories.

I can't just leave, okay? I've got responsibilities.

Responsibilities?

More important than me?

Of course not.

Just...

Okay, what are we gonna do to support ourselves?

How are we gonna make a living?

MADISON: I'm a perfectly capable person.

Where did you get that?

Denny, you are the only thing in this world

that matters to me.

And we can walk out that door, and climb on a bus, and go.

There's nothing keeping us here.

- Nothing. - My job.

There's a million jobs waiting tables in Chicago.

But I like this one.

You'll get over it.

I don't know.

Have you ever even left this city?

What do you mean?

I mean, have you ever left?

Traveled? Seen what else is out there?

- I'm not gonna leave you. - That's just it.

We don't have to worry about that anymore.

It's really important to me, Denny, that we leave this place.

Now.

I don't know.

Why are you arguing with me?

I've made up my mind, and we're moving.

- That's final! - Just keep your voice down, okay?

Just... I just need some time, that's all.

How much time?

Get you anything else?

Some dessert? Some anger management classes?

Ah, that's funny.

Get it? Anger management classes?

Almost as funny as the tip I'm about to give you.

Fuck off.

There's some people that I work with that I want you to meet.

I'm not interested in making new friends.

But they're really good people, Mads.

They've had a very positive impact on me,

and I just... I think...

Since when do you do the thinking for us?

What the hell is going on around here?

I've made up my mind. We are going to Chicago.

So put your final notice in at work.

[CHUCKLES] Wow.

Wow, that's... Oh...

Did you write that?

- I did. - Wow.

I like it.

- [LAUGHS] - Thank you.

What inspired the song?

Well, um, when I was a little girl

my parents took me to Niagara Falls,

and I just thought that the Falls were so magical.

And they were so beautiful.

And I felt like a fairy princess.

And I just... I just always told myself

that one day when...

If I get married,

that that is where I would have my honeymoon.

But, anyway,

here I am, and still no storybook ending.

Yeah, but every storybook has its conflict.

Maybe your ending just isn't written yet.

[♪♪♪]

So, um, what did you want to tell me?

What?

What is it?

- I thought I saw somebody. - Seriously?

DENNY: No, it's... It's fine.

Well, you know what?

It's better to be safe than sorry.

Let's go, we can go.

Okay.

Hi.

You must be Isabella.

I am, and who might you be?

I'm Denny. I'm a friend of your mom's.

Mom, the comedian's here!

SARAH: Great, sweetie, will you let him in?

- Come on in. - Okay.

♪ ...is believin' ♪

♪ Breaking down that look... ♪

These are cool drawings.

Thank you. I made them in art class.

Oh, wow.

I know I'm a couple minutes early,

but I thought I'd take the time to set up the record player.

- Where should I...? - Oh, over here.

And what's a record player?

It's a... it's a mechanical device

that plays mu...

Well, it plays these.

It plays these records.

But think about them as, like, really big CDs.

But these ones are all very funny.

ISABELLA: Are you going to make me laugh?

- DENNY: Me? - I see the two of you have met.

- Hey. - Yup.

He taught me all about a record player.

Did he?

Sweetie, will you go do Mommy one last favor

and will you please go tidy up the bathroom a little bit?

- Okay. - Thank you so much.

Wow, she's a cutie.

Yeah, she really is.

- You look great. - Thank you.

Since you're here early,

do you actually mind helping me finish decorating?

Just I don't know where to put this.

Yeah, sure.

- Thank you. - Of course.

SARAH: I think Linda is gonna be so surprised.

Yeah, I think she will be too.

Hey, I invited my sister.

I don't think she's gonna come, but I hope that's okay.

No, of course it's okay. The more the merrier.

I'm actually really excited to meet her.

I bet you she has a ton of funny stories

about the two of you guys growing up.

[LAUGHS NERVOUSLY]

Isn't she gonna wonder why she's stopping by your house?

No, Lloyd told her that I accidentally took home

the register key, and they have to stop by and pick it up.

- Ah. - You guys remember that time

I forgot to close the back door?

The next morning, all those cats were in the restaurant.

- [SHAUN LAUGHS] - MANDEL: Yes.

I'm allergic to cats.

- SHAUN: Where's Isabella? - Oh.

She fell asleep a little bit ago.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Okay, everybody hide and be quiet.

Oh, Denny, will you get the...

- [TURNS MUSIC OFF] - Who is it?

LLOYD: Lloyd! If you're not decent,

- slip the key under the door. - SARAH: No, wait just a second.

Oh, well, don't you two look nice.

- Come on in. - LINDA: No, honey...

You know, we can only stay for a second.

We're going to a movie, and we got to catch it

in about 15 minutes.

- [PARTY HORN BLOWS] - [SCREAMS]

- Oh, my God! - DENNY: Happy birthday.

This is so exciting. Thank you.

So I have something to share with everyone.

I've decided I'm going to try my own stand-up

at a comedy club.

That's so great.

When?

Tuesday night.

There's an open mic.

And I was hoping that you guys could all make it.

That's the restaurant's anniversary.

And I already thought about you, Lloyd.

I don't go on until very late, so anybody who's interested,

we can all just go over together after we close.

I will definitely be there.

- I'm game. - Me too, man.

LINDA: We'd love to go.

It'll be a wonderful way

- to wrap up a great evening. - Wouldn't miss it.

I'd wear a suit, if I had a suit.

I like when comedians get dressed up.

I mean, I don't have my routine fully worked out just yet.

Use the restaurant as inspiration.

I mean, we all know how funny things can get around there.

You guys remember that time I set the sprinkler system off,

and shorted out the entire kitchen?

That is funny, considering it's the first time I've heard of it.

Some things are better left unsaid, dear.

Funny enough, there are a lot of similarities

to waiting tables and things that have happened

- in my own life. - Like what?

Constantly meeting new people, developing coping skills

for those people.

For example, I had this two top the other day,

and they just kept running me in every which direction.

You know, nothing I did was ever right for them.

[LAUGHS]

They reminded me of this foster family

that I used to live with when I was a kid

that thought that I was actually their own personal slave.

And so I handled the table the same way

that I used to handle the family.

Every time they would send me to go do something,

I would come back into the room

with one less item of clothing on.

And, you know, then finally at the end, they just...

They just hope you just go away.

Tell me you did not do this at the restaurant.

DENNY: Well, I had this other table.

It was a... It was a four top of psychiatrists.

You know, just very like...

Very...

You can't make any suggestions to these people,

because they overanalyze everything.

"You suggested a fruit cup for dessert.

Does that mean you have some feelings toward homosexuality?"

I do love a fresh fruit cup.

- You are a fresh fruit cup. - [INDISTINCT CHATTER]

MADISON: Want to know an ex-con's idea of a perfect date?

- Mads... - It starts with a courtship

in the cafeteria,

and concludes with getting raped at knifepoint in the showers.

[LAUGHS]

You share a sense of humor.

This is my sister, Madison.

I knocked, but I don't think you could hear me

- over laughter. - SARAH: That's okay.

I'm Sarah. Really nice to meet you.

I'm really happy that you were able to come.

I can't stay. We can't stay.

Nonsense. Join us.

I'm... I'm Linda.

Denny, you didn't mention a sister.

- [LAUGHS NERVOUSLY] - LLOYD: I'm Lloyd,

and we are celebrating my wife's 50th birthday.

Hurrah.

And Mandel, Shaun.

- Hey. - It's nice to meet all of you.

Really, I've heard some really nice things.

But my brother and I have a lot to get done

before our big move to Chicago and all.

Chicago?

You didn't mention a move to Chicago.

[WHISPERING] Madison, I'd really like it

if you just sit with these people for a few more minutes.

It's important to me.

CALISTA: Worthless fucking excuses for children.

That's all we have here.

I swear to fucking God, we're gonna kill the both of you

if things don't start to change around here.

You think we want to spend every minute

worrying about your fucking problems?

FELIX: We aren't raising no goddamn sissy faggots

- in this household, boy! - [LOUD SLAPS]

Come back here, boy!

Goddamn it, I said get your sissy ass back here.

Right now!

[♪♪♪]

[GROANS]

Hey.

Hey.

I'll get it. It just needs a good... You know.

I'll get it.

- [WATER SLOSHES] - Denny.

Denny.

Stop.

I want to show you something.

Come on.

Okay.

My father had a Cadillac when I was a kid.

He'd put me in the front seat.

This was back when you could get away with that.

And I'd fiddle with the radio dial.

Nah, nah, no.

Probably drove him crazy, but he never said a word.

Mm-hm.

It was, uh, nice meeting your sister.

Two of you are planning a move to Chicago.

Nothing's been decided yet.

I'll give you plenty of notice, if that's what you're asking.

We really enjoy having you at the restaurant, Denny.

- I'm a member of the family. - That's right.

- Except I'm not. - Yes, you are.

I'm not a member of your family, Lloyd.

I'm an employee.

You know, Lloyd, I'm not really up

for a romantic walk on the water.

[CHUCKLES]

[LLOYD SIGHS]

Well, you're in luck. We're not walking by the water.

All right, but if this is some kind

of employee psychological test,

you can just give me an F.

Come on, you big lollygagger.

When I was younger, I spent hours out here.

Just looking out at the lake.

It was calming.

The isolation and the silence and coldness was numbing.

I'd stand here, I'd let it seep into my body like a drug.

A drug that would take the pain away.

Take a deep breath.

Go on, take a deep breath.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

[EXHALES]

That breath will freeze your soul for a moment.

It'll let it hibernate away from its worries and its troubles.

Sarah mentioned that your parents passed,

and that you've been on your own for some time.

That's not easy, being alone.

And all your feelings stuffed inside of you,

no place to go, nobody to share them with.

I know.

I lost my family a long time ago.

My father left when I was still a child.

To this day I do not know why.

But one morning he was just gone.

And my mother chose not to talk about it.

Like he'd never been there to begin with.

Well, needless to say, things were different after that.

We lived a lie.

She became distant,

unable to express love.

She locked herself away.

And then one afternoon I came home from school

and I found her lying on the bathroom floor.

No note, no goodbye, no nothing.

The lie caught up to us.

I was 16 years old,

and I was all alone. And for the next 10 years,

it was like...

Like I was in a coma.

Like I was just treading water.

Then I met Linda.

She made my life.

She made my life.

We couldn't have kids of our own,

but we have found so much happiness in what we do have,

and we're thankful.

We're thankful for you.

I lied on my job application.

I never worked at any of those places.

I... I made it up.

Haven't even eaten at any of them.

Why the hell do you think I hired you?

Do you really think I would hire somebody

who worked at Fuddruckers?

I don't want to lie anymore.

- Hey. - Hey.

I was getting ready to head out, unless you needed some help.

No, I'm good.

You weren't really yourself today.

Long day.

That's all.

Are you really going to Chicago?

Can we talk about something else?

Yeah, what do you want to talk about?

Are you nervous for tomorrow?

- Tomorrow? - Yeah, your gig.

I haven't really thought about it too much.

Probably not a good idea.

Are you sure?

Because you were really excited about it.

Well, maybe trying to make people laugh

isn't such an important thing.

Well, that's a shame.

Maybe another time.

Well, um, I really gotta get going,

'cause I have the babysitter waiting and everything.

Okay.

Okay.

Do you wanna stop by?

I promised Isabella that she could stay up late,

since I'm gonna be here all day tomorrow, and...

No, I got a while before finish up here.

Are you sure?

'Cause we were gonna watch The Wizard of Oz.

She's never seen it.

It's a classic. "There's no place like home."

I'm good. Thanks.

Oh, um, there's a gift for you inside.

Not that you'll be needing it.

I can't believe the clothes I used to wear.

Oh, my God, and Lloyd.

You gotta come here and look at this, come on.

[LAUGHS]

He... He was trying to juggle.

Oh, this was taken the day we opened the restaurant.

[SIGHS] Oh.

So many good people have come and gone.

Oh, Shaun.

Shaun was so nervous his first day.

This was his first job, he was still in high school,

and as I remember it, he even got sick.

Mandel, on the other hand,

he took over the kitchen the day he arrived,

and he has never looked back.

Oh, Sarah.

Sarah was terrified of being a mom.

She was two months pregnant when she started with us,

and she was already on her own.

May I?

Oh, yeah, of course.

Isn't she the most adorable thing

you have ever seen?

Mm-hm.

Lloyd and I wanted to have children.

But I was never able.

I carried around an enormous amount of guilt for years.

It was hard for me.

At times it still is.

But, uh, Lloyd, he stuck by me.

He always says, "As long as I have you...

...I have everything I'll ever need."

We would have been such great parents.

I think you already are.

Thank you.

[SNIFFLES AND LAUGHS]

Oh, my God, look at me. I'm so sorry, I'm...

Tears all over your...

You mentioned how much you like it

when comedians get dressed up.

So we all pitched in.

Go on, go on, take a look.

[♪♪♪]

Sarah picked it out for tomorrow.

The shoes are a pair that Lloyd doesn't really use anymore.

Maybe they'll... They'll fit.

We're so excited for you.

Tomorrow is going to be a very special day.

Okay...

...say "cheese."

[CAMERA CLICKS AND WHIRS]

Hey, there, buddy. Climb aboard.

You need a ride there, buddy?

You're letting in all the cold air.

All right, buddy, last chance.

I got a schedule to keep.

Suit yourself.

A lie will be people need no sleep at all.

Truth is what is.

If every politician from the beginning is crooked,

there is no crooked.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]

But if you are concerned with a lie,

what should be,

and what should be is a fantasy.

- A terrible, terrible... - I swear to tell the truth...

LENNY BRUCE: ...that someone gave the people...

the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God.

we ain't raising no goddamn sissy faggots

DENNY: I killed them.

I killed them.

Is that what you believe?

Is that what you remember?

What good does the truth do us now?

I was there when they were buried.

PRIEST: They cry unto the Lord

in their trouble, and he saveth them...

DENNY: I never told you.

PRIEST: ...out of their distresses.

DENNY: The sky opened,

and the sun came out for the first time in ever.

- And it blinded me. - PRIEST: ...and delivered them

from their destructions.

[SNIFFLES]

I told them everything that you said,

just as you said it.

How you went to the closet, and you got the gun,

and I wanted to stop you, but it was too late.

[SNIFFLES]

And just like that, you were gone too.

And I was all alone.

And the longer that I carried the lie,

the more real it became.

And I began to resent you.

No matter how bad things were,

was it worse than not having our family?

I hated you.

And over time, I stopped loving you.

You don't love me anymore?

Do you know how long I've waited?

How much I've suffered?

Do you have any idea?

I protected you because you protected us.

They deserve what they got,

and I hope that they're rotting in hell.

Don't. Don't touch me.

I can't feel you anymore.

Oh, God, what did I do?

I was raped, Denny.

I never told you that.

The first week they put me in there

I was raped.

When you're young, you get noticed.

And for the first time in my life,

boy, was I popular.

Every day seemed like a thousand,

each one blurring into the next.

I kept to myself,

but inside, trouble finds you.

And they controlled me with fear

and fucked me like a pig.

MAN: Hey, little lady.

Only thing that kept me going,

that kept me alive,

was knowing that each day brought me closer to a time

when we would be together again.

And no matter what they did to me,

I stayed strong.

I knew that if I was ever gonna make it home to you,

I had to be strong.

Tell me, how you gonna suck it?

MADISON: And I learned to hurt them...

- Oh! Fuck! - [MAN GRUNTS]

MADISON: ...before they hurt you.

You... I'm gonna fucking kill you! No.

No.

Don't.

LINDA: Or a small cup of soup,

which is our tomato rice special.

- No call? - No, he doesn't have a phone.

It's not like him to be late. Especially, today.

I gotta go.

- SHAUN: Look out! - [GLASS BREAKS]

DENNY: There's this saying

that your family's the only one that you've got,

so you better make

the best of the time you have with them,

because when they're gone, they're gone.

But what if there was a place

where you could trade in members of your family...

[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]

...that you didn't want

for ones that you did?

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHING] - Right?

"Welcome to The Exchange, how can I help you?"

"Yeah, hi, I was wondering what I might get

for two horrible parents?"

- [AUDIENCE LAUGHING] - "Well, you're in luck.

We're running a manager's special

on all dysfunctional families."

"Aah. You are?"

"Today, and today only.

Trade in any two alcoholic and abusive parents,

and get a set of loving and caring surrogates.

And if you throw in that sister of yours,

we'll even give you a cute, cuddly dog!"

[AUDIENCE LAUGHING AND CLAPPING]

"It's a once in a lifetime offer!"

Now that I have a chance to breathe,

do you mind if I go looking for Denny?

He was just acting so weird last night, I'm really worried.

Lloyd's worried he might've said something to upset him.

I just hope nothing's wrong.

Go on, I'll take care of these guys.

DENNY: At Miller's Family Restaurant,

you don't have to be related to be a member of our family.

For 20 years,

Lloyd and Linda Miller have believed

that the people and communities they serve

are their business.

Miller's also knows

that world-class customer service

starts at home,

so our focus is on more than the families

we serve as customers,

it's also on the people that work with us.

We owe our long history of success and happiness

to the employees we consider family.

Over time, we've remained the same,

dedicated to serving you great home-cooked meals

at a reasonable price.

Like our popular meatloaf and mashed potatoes special,

our steaming hot bowl of homemade tomato rice soup,

and of course, our world-famous cinnamon flavored sticky buns.

Come on down and join the reunion,

where everyone is welcome,

and each and every meal is cooked with love.

Miller's Family Restaurant,

food too good to remain a secret.

We are proud to welcome you to the Miller family.
