other things hey Brian hi how was school

mouth shut Oh bill you know I have to

bank's house and you're the boss but she

still can't tell us what to do where you

go talk to her whoa whoa whoa bill you

don't get it her daughter is about to

become a teenager this where I take over

you're done she won't need you again

till it's time to pay for the wedding so

now that she's a teenager I have no role

to play in my daughter's life listen

I've spent a lot of time planning this

party and I want her to have a nice 13th

birthday so just pretend she's like the

exercise bike in the garage and leave

her alone major the phone for the remote

and if i watch the game watch whatever

you want okay so almost 13 huh quite an

age I remember correctly bo was a big

problem that's still going on with the

boys I'm sorry about the phone thing or

earlier it's okay so this Alex hasn't

made any moves heavy like that he likes

you right I don't know my friends say he

does he's always doing weird stuff like

kicking my chair tie my shoelaces

together oh he likes you as the kind of

stuff you do when you like someone I

used to snap your mother's bra don't do

that I still like her honey you're smart

you're beautiful the boys are gonna go

crazy over you really of course just

wish Alex would call I know you do

sweetie and he'd be stupid not to thanks

dad you're welcome pumpkin then boys are

stupid so he might never call you

I'm just saying boys are just sickle at

that age he might be kicking a lot of

girls chairs but that doesn't mean

you're not special to me so you're

saying he likes lots of other girls that

he's never gonna call what did you do I

just got away my total loser I did not

just out of curiosity bill well we were

in the kitchen and I told you to stay

out of it was there like a circus song

playing in your head I was doing great

more thing and it all went to hell Oh

talking to him can I tell him that

Lauren really likes him and he should

call her he's a little hesitant

delivering his order and he's a dollar

short I make up the difference and you

told the boy that our daughter liked him

and then you paid him to call her for

your next trick you might want to try

pulling your head out of your ass what

you're not afraid your daughter will

find out you paid a boy to call her I

didn't pay him i said him still Linda's

right if Lauren finds out about this

find out I don't know maybe to keep you

happiness oh here you got a phone call

doesn't like me some credit here this I

didn't blab about how she goes crazy
