Aah!
Hey, did I ever tell you the story
of the time I got my head stuck in the banister?
196 times.
In fact, why don't I tell it to you?
You were eight
and you got your head stuck in the staircase banister.
So your mother buttered your ears and slid you out.
And that's why, to this day,
you always carry a stick of butter in your purse.
Yep.
That's the banister story.
Oh, my God.
Is this what our life is going to be?
Just you and me,
telling each other the same old story over and over?
Just say the word and we'll jump into the suicide pit.
(mechanical whirring, alligators roaring)
You'd like it if we jumped down there, wouldn't you?
You want my hand?
You want this finger? Huh? Huh?
Don't-don't-don't tease 'em.
(mechanical whirring, alligator whimpering)
I won tickets to the new Cirque du Soleil show next week--
Cirque du Soleil Moon Frye!
Oh, I've heard of that one.
Top-heavy actresses get stuck in a refrigerator
and have to dance their way out.
Great, that sounds like something to do.
Hey!
You guys can't do this.
(mechanical whirring, alligators roaring)
I think we can.
Oh, look, there's four!
We can take another couple.
What about Gary and Lisa?
He's great, but I hate her.
How about Ted and Linda?
She's great, but I hate him.
Both great!
(line ringing)
Hey, it's Francine.
We have extra tickets to a show next Thursday.
(laughs)
Okay, great!
Turns out they hate us.
I can see that.
SPOKESPERSON: Why pay ten bucks
for pre-bagged cotton candy
when you can have it fresh at any time?
With the Cotton Candy Shooter,
you can have portable perfection in the palm of your hand!
On it!
Yes, I'd like to order the Cotton Candy Shooter.
We are going to have so much fun with this!
What are you gonna do
with a portable Cotton Candy Shooter?
You're stuck in a fishbowl!
You don't need portability!
No, I'm here. I was just mocking my stupid friend.
Anyway, last four digits 5664.
Expiration 8/12.
Yeah, Greg Corbin.
Thank you.
I stole a credit card from Greg and Terry's mailbox.
As long as I don't charge over 40 bucks, they never catch on.
They get the bill and it goes something like this...
(as Greg): "Honey, did you spend 14.99
at a place called CCS Enterprises?"
(as Terry): "Hmm, is that that new wine store on Grove Street?"
(as Greg): "Maybe. I also got a couple
of vintage butter dishes off eBay. Could be that."
(as Terry): "And don't forget that mm-hmm
that came in the brown paper package."
(as Greg): "Tie me up with string 'cause that was my favorite thing!"
After that, they do it on the Viking rangetop
and end up ignoring the charge.
Tuck yourself in tonight. We'll be late.
Where you gotta be that's so damn important
I don't get a forehead kiss?
Your mother and I are gonna go try to make some friends.
I'll kiss your forehead for you.
(muffled crying)
I got ya. I got ya.
I got ya.

Hey, pal, mind your own business.
My friends are telling a story.
You hear that? He said friends!

I wonder if they'll call.
No!

We have a real live double date!

Maybe this blue suit

Yeah, that's it.
That'll look nice.
I'm telling you, it's always funny.
Oh, he's right.
You can't see a guy get hit in the groin
and not laugh.
(groans)
I cannot tell you guys
how glad we are to have found you.
The last couple we met was so boring.
Well, that's because they were so old.
I mean, they were like 40.
40? (chuckles)
What, was-was he from that village in China

Can you drop me off at the roller rink?
That's where my dad thinks I am.
Too far. Reel it in.
You know what's really going to make us
feel grown-up is having kids.
I'm telling you.
We use double birth control: condoms and spermicide.
We don't want kids for a long time.
It's good to be young without kids.
We kill kids.

Hey, it's only midnight!
How about another bottle, huh?!
We'll hit up an after-hours club.
What? You're not tired, are you?
No, no, we're awake!
Yep, wide awake and ready to party.

Tonight for dessert we have figs or dates,

our desserts are disappointing.

You passed out making mac and cheese.
Why didn't you turn off the stove?
You guys laughed at my head.
Now, you ruined a pot.
Happy with yourselves?
Hey, you!
Ready for our mother/daughter day?
Last night.
You came into my room and woke me up.
You said I was the most precious thing in your life

You said we'd spend the day having fun together.
Oh, no. "No" to all of that.

For rock climbing.
Remember, we said last night?
We're outside. Let's go.
They want us to go rock climbing.
We, uh, we don't have any equipment or, uh...
Not a problem. We got you covered.
Hey, if you guys need a few minutes
we'll come in and make mimosas.
No! We'll be right out.
Stan, I can't.

Yay, more alcohol!
So, Tommy and I have a great idea
for a trip the four of us can take.
There's this vertical glacier in Alaska that you can ski.
Oh, it's a fantastic challenge.
You know, about 30% of people who try it die,
but they're all old.
That sounds great.
Terrific! Race you to the omelet bar!
We can't go.
No way. This has gone too far.
I miss being over 40.
But if we don't keep up with Tom and Cami,
we'll lose them.
Maybe we can't keep up with them,
but we can slow them down.
We sabotage their birth control
and give Tom and Cami the gift of lifelong responsibility.
We have 45 minutes until they get back
from their midnight triathlon.
Barf to that hobby.
Got the condoms.
Found the spermicide.
Hey, I get the part where if Tom and Cami have a kid
they'll have to slow down like us,
but how do we know they'll keep the baby?
Oh, they're not going to abort it.
'Cause they're awesome.
Tom-Tom! Cameo! Have some wine.
Actually, we have some news.
Oh, congratulations!
We haven't even told you our news.
Oh, but having news is great.
I love news.
I'm like the Cookie Monster with news.

(sighs) Well, it's early,
but... we're pregnant.
Guess that means we can't go on that ski trip.
You're really going to have to slow down now, huh?

You must have put the *** on wrong.
Well, even if I did,

is when the life you've built with the woman you love
