"Hey." "How was your day?" "It was okay." "I ordered this little Hummel figurine from QVC." "It's really ugly... but it'll take four to six weeks to get here and I wanted something to look forward to." "You know, uh... you're not working." "You have the time." "Why not go to the gym?" "You know, they deduct $20 from our bank account each month." "Why not stop by and make sure they're still in business?" "Great!" "You think I'm getting fat?" "No!" "No..." "I don't think that." "Just to, you know, to get the endorphins going." "I read somewhere that that's a natural antidepressant." "You know, real antidepressants work swell, too." "Yes!" "With two houses, you owe me $500." "Great." "I guess I have to sell a hotel." "You can just owe it to me, I guess." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "You're half-Jewish, half-Italian." "Okay, that means you charge him as much as you can, and if he doesn't pay, you break his legs." "Relax, Dad." "It's just a stupid game." "Where is that attitude coming from?" "Ha!" "You pulled the wrong stick, you spaz!" "Every marble dropped." "Dad wins again!" "Yeah, Dad!" "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" "Come on, if you're going to play, play to win." "Look, I want you to be more competitive." "You know, maybe you should think about joining a team." "You'll learn important life lessons." "Like what?" "When washing the quarterback's jockstrap, use bleach?" ""Pregnancy test"?" "Hillary!" "What?" "Come here!" "What do you want?" "What the hell is this?" "!" "A pregnancy test." "I know that, but how do you know that?" "Because it says "pregnancy test" on it?" "What the hell are you doing with this?" "Nothing." "It's not mine." "And I'm not an idiot." "If it was mine, I wouldn't throw it away in the kitchen." "I'd throw it away in the neighbor's garbage along with the cigarette butts and empty beer bottles." "All right, I want to know what's going on here." "Are you knocked up?" "I said it wasn't mine!" "Stop lying to me, okay?" "You never believe anything that I say!" "That's because you never tell me the truth!" "Hey, hey, what is all the screaming about?" "!" "Your daughter's taking pregnancy tests!" "It's not mine!" "Stop lying!" "Actually, that was mine." "Oh." "Never mind." "Love you!" "W-W-W-What are you doing taking pregnancy tests?" "Wanted to find out if I was pregnant." "Season 1 Episode 14 " How Do You Spell Relief? "" "" "Are you?" "Huh?" "Are you pregnant?" "Is that what you're telling me?" "Are you telling me that you're pregnant?" "Well, all three times I had to tell you that," "I made you a nice meal and got you all liquored up first." "Yeah, well, I'm hungry and sober, so..." "I'm not pregnant." "Thank God!" "Wait a second." "Why would you even think you're pregnant?" "You're on the pill, right?" "You are on the pill, aren't you?" "Technically, no." "Technically?" "Vicky, come on, I don't want "technically."" "Okay, we already have three accidents." "I mean, Allstate won't even insure that uterus, okay?" "What's your problem?" "My stupid book report is due tomorrow and this book is, like, 300 pages." "Hey, I read this book when I was in your grade." "Really?" "Can you tell me about it?" "I can do better than that." "I think I still have my book report on it." "Oh." "No, thanks." "I think I can fail on my own." "I'm pretty sure I got a "B" on it." "Really?" "Were you sleeping with your teacher?" "No." "And if I was I would've gotten an "A."" "Look, if you don't want it..." "No, no, no." "I do." "I do." "I do." "But, uh, what's the catch?" "I'm your sister." "Can't I just be nice?" "Thanks." "I really appreciate it." "The first one's always free." "That's how you get them hooked." "Whoa." "What was that about?" "I'm just really in the mood." "Sorry, don't have time to say anything." "I've got to take care of business." "Baby, uh..." "Yeah?" "don't you think we should take some precautions?" "Yeah, yeah..." "I'm good to go." "Okay." "Good." "Come here." "Hey, uh, what exactly does that mean, you know, "good to go"?" "It means, don't worry about it." "Come on, baby, we just dodged a bullet." "Don't you think we should be more careful before firing the gun again?" "Well... you know, cannon." "You don't want to end up pregnant." "Oh, come on, baby." "Would it really be the end of the world, you know... if we did have another baby?" "What?" "!" "No, no, no... no, no... no..." "No!" "Why?"

"Guess what I'm in the mood for?" "Look, I know what this is about." "You're bored because you lost your job and you don't know what to do, but baby, come on, you're moving backwards, not forwards." "That's not true at all!" "Now do me!" "I'm sorry;" "I'm going to have to pass this time." "No glove, no love." "Hey, uh, Dad... um, I heard what you said the other day, and I decided to get involved in an activity at school." "Can you sign this permission slip?" "Yeah." "This is great!" "What's it for?" "Basketball... football... tennis?" "The spelling bee?" "Yeah, you said you wanted me to compete in something and at least in the spelling bee, I won't get injured." "Plus, I'm really excited about this and I really think this will be good for me." "And I really hope that this will get him off my back." "Okay." "Good." "This is good." "Okay." "There you go." "All right." "Today the spelling bee." "Tomorrow the football team." "Well, maybe the bowling team." "There she is!" "The best sister in the world." "Let me guess." "You want another book report." "Yes, could you, uh, hook a brother up?" "I've got a Catcher in the Rye that got an A-minus." "Here you go." "Sweet." "Thanks." "That'll be $25, please." "What?" "I'm not paying you." "Forget it."

"What do you got there?" "Frosting." "You made a cake?" "Nope." "All right, that's it!" "We're finding you a new job." "Why?" "Because I want you to be happy... and satisfied, sweetie." "What have we got here?" "Let me see..." "Retail sales?" "Ew!" "Telemarketing?" "Yuck!" "What about a dog walker?" "Yeah, great." "Like I don't pick up enough crap around here."

"Thanks, Dad." "Way to go." "Wow..." "Look at that." "All right, so, what happens now?" "I go to the Nassau County Regionals." "Yes!" "We're going to the Regionals!" "That's great!" "Yes!" "Uh, Dad..." "I wouldn't get your hopes up." "I mean, I'm just happy to participate." "To hell with that." "We don't go to participate, we go to win!" "First the Regionals, then the State, then the Nationals!" "We're going all the way, baby!" "This is our year, baby!" "Okay, all right." "We don't want to put too much pressure on Larry." "We don't want another go-kart incident." "One leg is already a quarter-inch shorter than the other." "Pressure?" "No, pressure's good, okay?" "When Superman wants to make a diamond, he takes a piece of coal and he squeezes it." "And he squeezes the hell of it, okay?" "And that's what I'm going to do to you, Larry." "Uh, Dad, I don't think that's going to turn me into a diamond." "I just..." "I just think it's going to make blood come out of my mouth." "Okay, we only have a week to get ready." "We have a lot of work ahead of us." "What's with all this "we" and "us" stuff?" "I'm gonna train you." "You're gonna train...?" "Can you even spell?" "Don't worry about me training him, okay?"

"Get back to me when you hit two months." "So what's with her?" "She's not happy." "You know, when she's not happy, I'm not happy." "And you know who's least happy, ironically?" "Mr. Happy." "I thought you told her to concentrate on the kids." "Yeah, that didn't work out so good." "They didn't want anything to do with her." "Now she's back on this "having a baby" idea." "Well, there's a simple solution to that problem." "Snip-snip." "Yeah, not for me." "Okay?" "I'm Jewish." "One snip-snip down there was enough for a lifetime."

"I just want you to listen and, and... try to understand what I'm going through." "Okay, okay, sweetie." "Tell me, please, what are you going through?" "I don't know!" "I gave up my career to raise my kids, and the whole time I was thinking," ""Okay, once they grow up, I can just waltz back in and get my career back."" "Well, guess what." "That didn't work." "And now my kids don't need me, and soon they'll be gone and I'll have no kids and no career and no nothing." "I'll just have you!" "Did I mention it pays 40 grand?" ""Regurgitate."

"Hey, hey, Dad, please, could you just give me a second to breathe?" "Okay, you're freaking him out." "Put that camera down, Vicky." "Yeah, you're right." "Maybe I should get somebody else to record it for me... like a surrogate." "Don't worry about her." "I've been sizing up the competition." "Fatso Sweatso--he's going to fold like a house of blubber." "And the blonde chick doesn't have what it takes because, you know... she's blonde." "But the one I'm worried about is the Asian chick because you know, she's Asian, all right?" "You got to get in her head, all right?" "You got to psych her out." "Hey, hey, you're psyching me out, okay?" "I can't stand this anymore." "I don't even care if I win." "What?" "Don't say that." "Come on." "We worked hard." "All right?" "This is important." "You got to..." "It's important to you, not to me." "I just want to get through it." "Now, please, just leave me alone, okay?" "All right, all right, that's the fighting spirit we're looking for." "Your dad giving you a hard time?" "Yeah." "I know how you feel." "My mother will kill me if I don't win." "I'm sure she won't do that." "Well, if she doesn't, maybe we can get together sometime." "You're cute." "Intercourse." "I-n-t-e-r-c-o-u-r-s-e." "Intercourse." "Hey, I need another book report." "Any book, "B" or better." "I have an "A-" paper you can have." "Stop talking, start printing." "Ooh, sorry." "Price has gone up." "It's now $50." "What?" "You can't do that." "You would." "You know what?" "Forget it." "I don't need you."

"Uh, congratulations." "So how about we go out and celebrate your victory, huh?" "I don't think so." "I have a boyfriend." "B-i-t-c-h." "Great job, honey." "Listen, I'm going to see you at home." "I'm proud of you." "Second place." "Not too bad, huh?" "I know you know how to spell bronchial." "It's right on the back of your inhaler." "There's a lot of pressure up there, Dad." "No, no, no." "You threw the competition." "You lost on purpose, and I know exactly why you did it." "You do?" "Yeah, because you're mad at me, and that sucks." "Maybe I did push you." "Maybe I did want you to win a little bit for me." "But I also wanted this to be something we could do together, you know, for you." "And you just threw it all away because you're mad at me?" "I didn't let her win because of you." "I did it 'cause I thought I could get some action off her." "Oh, okay." "Because the only reason to win is to get some action." "But you just... skipped a step." "Way to go, champ." "Hey, you know, uh..." "I've been doing a lot of thinking, and you know what?" "I mean, this is what we do, right?" "The kids, the house, the whole thing." "You know, so maybe it won't be such a bad idea if we had another kid." "What?" "!" "God, no, I don't want another baby." "That'd be like saying, "No, thanks, Parole Board," "I think I'll just stick around the prison another 18 years."" "Vicky, you said you wanted one." "You keep..." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." "I was in a funk." "Listen, I ran into Jill Schwartzman in the parking lot, and long story short," "I'm going to be working at her interior design firm." "I start on Monday." "Oh." "But when I said you should get a job, you said I was just trying to solve your problems." "But I was right, right?" "Stop trying to take credit for everything, Dave." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "So maybe this is a good time that we get, you know... reacquainted." "Sounds good to me." "Hey, uh, don't you think we should, uh, you know, take some precautions?" "Yeah." "Oh, I threw away all my precautions." "Don't you have any precautions?" "No, I don't have any." "Maybe Larry has some." "I'll just go to the drugstore." "Well, we have a real treat today, students." "Michael, would you come up here and read your book report?" "Yeah." ""Are You There, God?" "It's Me, Margaret."" "Please continue, Mike."
