Hey, Ha Ha.

Denise's Favorite Flowers.

My Daughter's Coming Home

Bought Her Some Flowers.

My College Daughter.

Her Old Teddy Bear, Remember?

I Found It

Three Different Kinds
Of Garlic Bread.

I Am Ready For
The Mother Of The Century Award.

Yes, You Are.

May I Taste It?

No, Because This Is
For Denise.

This Is For You.

No Sign Of Denise Yet?

Nope.

She's Caught In Traffic.

I Wish She Would Hurry,
Because I Want To Eat

And Then Take Her
To See Clark Terry.

I Thought We Should Go Skating
At Rockefeller Center.

We Can Do That And Then We Can
Catch The Midnight Show.

We Won't Be Home Before

If You're Going To Be
Parent Of The Century

You Better Learn

For Years.

I Love That Place.

Let's Go Now.

Denise, I've Made A Big Dinner
For Us To Have Here.

Spaghetti, Meatballs,
Beans And Franks.

Oh, You Did.

I Didn't Know, Mom.

You'll Have To
Count Me Out.

It Would Have Been
So Much Fun.

I Can Save You
Some Spaghetti Sauce.

Go On Out
With Your Friends.

Clair:
Is That
Okay, Cliff?

Yeah, It's More
Sauce For Me.

Well, Not For Me.

I'm Having
A Big Salad Myself.

But Tomorrow Night
Is Family Night.

You're Going To Spend
Time With Us.

Absolutely.

Let's Pig Out.

How Did Everybody Do

So Don't Wait For The Beep.

Now You Got Something To Say?

Huh?

All Right, Hit It!

Oh, Steve!

Well, Goodness Gracious.

Let's See, Steve, You Were

Now You Are Number .

But I Like You A Lot, Steve.

You Know Why?

Because You Are Polite.

And You Seem To Be
Smiling On The Phone.

You're Calling From Florida?

All Of These Times You Called--

What School Are You In?

Medical School?

Ohh, Podiatrist.

Ooh.

You Don't Understand
What Steve Is Like.

No Woman At Hillman

The Guy's A Motor-Mouth.

A Motor-Mouth?

If He Goes Out With You

You, Too.

(Phone Ringing )

(Ringing )

Hello?

No, I Don't Know Where
Denise Is.

No, I'm Not Going To Check
For You

And I'm Not Taking Any Messages.

I Don't Know...

Wait A Minute, Larry.

No, I'm Not Here.

No, She Just...

Some Of My Children Look So Much
Alike, I Thought It Was Denise.

It Really Isn't Denise.

Okay, I'll Take A Message.

I Don't Know When
She'll Be Back.

She's Not Coming Back Anymore,
I Just Remembered.

She May Have Gone
To Get Married In Iceland.

A Fellow
Came By...

Okay, Where Are You?

You're With David

At The Melrose Restaurant.

He's With David!

Wait, She Just
Got Divorced.

Hi, Sometimes My Dad
Is Just Such A Kidder.

I Can't Make Dinner.

I'm Spending Time
With My Family.

Yeah.

How About Brunch Tomorrow?

Okay, Tell David I Said Hi.

Tomorrow At : .

Okay, Bye-Bye.

You're Giving Up
An Evening With David

To Spend An Evening With Daddy?

I Told My Friends I Haven't
Spent Any Time With My Family.

Yes, Good.

So They're All Going
To Come Over Here Tonight.

Well, That's
All Right With Me.

We're Going
To Watch Videos.

You And Mom
Can Join Us.

I'll Take Anything.

Yeah?

Yes.

What If One Is
A Cowboy Movie?

Could It Be Six g*ns To Glory
Starring Colt Kirby?

Definitely.

Ooh-Wee.

You Make A List
Of Videos You Want

And I'll Go Get Them.

Okay, I'll Do It Right Now.

Six g*ns To Glory--
Colt Kirby.

It's Nice To Have You Home.

Ooh-Hoo!

Colt Kirby Said,
"Throw Down That Box.

I Said Throw Down..."

Hello, Daddy.

What's The Matter?

You're Not Wearing That.

Why Not?

It's Not A Whole Dress.

This Is The Way I Bought It.

You Did Not Buy It That Way.

You Took That Dress Upstairs
And Did Some Tailoring To It.

Dad, I Didn't.
You Can Ask Mom.

Your Mother Wouldn't Let You
Try On A Dress Like That

Let Alone Buy One.

I'm Telling You, Ask Her.

I'm Going To Catch You Now,
Sportie.

Clair!

Yes?

Come On Down, Dear.

Okay!

You Won't Let Me Wear This?

I Won't Say A Thing.

When Your Mother Sees It,
That's It.

Yes, Love?

There It Is,
Right There.

She's Beautiful, Isn't She?

Denise Helped
With Her Hair.

I'm Not Talking
About Her Hair.

I'm Talking About
The Dress, Dear.

Yeah, Isn't
It Fabulous?

Soon As We Saw It

I Knew
It Was Perfect.

Dear, The Dress Doesn't
Have Any Straps.

So?

Some People
Have Lost Their Mind.

See, There's Nothing
Around Here.

This Child Will Start
One Of These Dances

And This Dress Is Not
Going To Hold Her.

Dad!

I'm Very, Very Serious.

You Start Bobbing Up And Down

And I Don't Think This Dress
Will Contain Her Abilities.

Cliff, Please.

I'm Serious.

The Dress Was Designed
For Dancing.

I'll Be Fine.

Prove It.

How?

Jump Up And Down.

I'm Serious.

Cliff, Stop It Now.

I'm Serious--
Jump Up And Down.

Come On.

Cliff.

Jump Up And Down.

Jump Up And Down,
Vanessa.

Okay, How High?

This High.

Like This.

I'll Be Satisfied.

Come On.

No, No, You Know How
You All Dance.

You All Like They Do On Tv.

Come On.

Now Wait One Second.

Bend Over And Touch Your Toes.

Now That Is Enough.

Vanessa, Get Your Shawl.

Thank You, Mom.

Do Me One Favor?

You Stay Until She's Had Three
Of Those Thing Dances.

I Will.

If Anything Falls Out

You Put It Back In
And Bring Her Right Home.

I Will.

Hi, Everybody.

Hi, Theo.

This Is Gwen.

Hi.

All:
Hi.

I Told Her To Come
Meet My Sis.

Is My Little Brother
Behaving?

Of Course,
Theo's A Gentleman.

I've Got To Go.

Theo, I'll See You
Tomorrow Night.

You Got It.

See You Later, Gwen.

Did You Give
Gwen Your Cold?

No, I Didn't, Denise.

You Must Have
Some Wicked Moves

To Have A Good-Looking Girl
Drive You Around.

Who Buys The Gas?

With A Girl Like Gwen,
You Don't Run Out Of Gas.

Denise, Can I See You
In The Kitchen For A Second?

Sure.

Now.

I'm Coming.

What's The Matter?

Denise, I'm Hurt.

What?

What You Said
Was Insulting And Demeaning.

What Are You Talking About?

I Was Just Joking.

I Don't Like It.

What Do You Expect?

You Walk In With
This Love Goddess.

"Love Goddess"?

Come On, She's Gorgeous.

I'm Not Going Out With Gwen
Because Of Her Looks.

Oh, You're Not?

I'm Attracted
To Her Inner Beauty.

She Happens To Be An Outstanding
Person And Very Intelligent.

She's Going To Major In Physics
At Duke.

I'm Sorry
If I Hurt Your Feelings.

I Was Talking Like You Were
The Old Theo I Used To Know.

I've Changed Since
You've Been Gone.

I Guess
You Have.

Isn't There An Ounce Of You

That's Slightly
Physically Attracted To Her?

A Little Bit.

But I Try Not To Let That
Mess With My Mind.

I Hope I Can Meet Someone
With That Attitude.

I Wish You Luck.

There's Not That
Many Of Us Around.

I Know.

All Right, You,
Throw Down That Box.

Ha Ha!
Did You Hear That?

I Said Throw Down That Box.

Just Let Me Stop It
One Second.

"Throw Down That Box," See.

This Was The First Western
That They Ever Said That Line

"Throw Down That Box."

"Throw Down The Box"
Was Mean Stuff.

Dad, Why Don't We Save
The Best For Last?

What Do You Want To Watch?

Let's Watch Brains On The Table.

I Don't Understand
Brains On The Table.

Davey Herbeck Is A Scream.

This Is The Funniest Concert
Film I've Ever Seen.

He's Very Hip.

Davey Herbeck, Uh-Huh.

Mom, We're Going To Watch
The First Video!

What's On?

Brains On The Table.

What's That?

That's Davey Herbeck, Dear.

Ladies And Gentlemen,
Live From The Laugh Cellar

With His Brains On The Table

It's The Mechanical
Maniac Himself

Dangerous Davey Herbeck!

Thank You.

Thank You, Androids.

I'm Losing My Mind!

Dad, We Were Watching That.

He Is Going Back To The Store.

But, Dad...

I'm Losing My Mind!

That's Why I'm Taking Him
Back To The Video Store.

Don't You Have Something
Better To Do?

We're Waiting For Denise.

Yeah, We've Hardly
Seen Her All Weekend.

No One Has Really.

And She'd Better Be Here Shortly

Because Her Ride Is Coming
In Another Five Minutes.

Hi, Everybody!

I'm Late.
I Still Have To Pack!

Bye!

Did Denise Just
Come Through Here?

I Don't Know.

The Door Opened And Closed

And Something Was Mumbling
With Hair Flying This Way.

That's A Shame.

We Didn't Have A Chance To Sit
And Talk With Her Or Anything.

What's With Denise?

She Almost Knocked Me Down.

Her Ride Is Coming.

She's In A Hurry.

She Was Hardly At Home.

Since She Didn't Have
Enough Time To Visit With Us

We Should Not Have Enough Time
To Say Good-Bye To Her.

Yeah.

Good Idea, Dad.

Let's Get Busy, Everybody.

When Denise Comes Down,
No Matter What She Does

Don't Anybody Pay Her
Any Attention.

I'm Going To Meet Jamie Outside
To Save Some Time.

Anyone Want To Wait Outside
With Me?

Hello, I'm Leaving.

Bye.

Is That All You Have To Say?

Come On, Rudy, Give Me A Hug.

Too Busy.

Vanessa?

Not Now,
I Have A Good Hand.

Theo, Come On.

Hey, Denise, I'll Catch You
Next Time Around.

Mom, What Is Going On Here?

Honey, Please, I'm Trying
To Balance The Checkbook.

But I'm Going Away To College.

So Have A Nice Trip.

Where's Dad?

In The Kitchen.

Dad, Denise Is Leaving!

See You Later, Homie!

Mom, I'm Your Daughter,
Remember?

Come On,
You Guys.

I Grew Up In This House
With You.

I Go Away
To College

Months At A Time.

How Can You Treat Me Like This?

Please, Keep It Down.

I Know What's Going On Here.

You Guys Are Playing
A Trick On Me.

Yeah?

Please, It's Got To Be A Trick.

Denise:
Okay.

Bye, Family.

Come On, Please?
Someone Say Good-Bye.

I Just Want To Say
One Thing.

It's Not My Fault
I Have Friends.

When I Come Home,
They Expect To See Me.

They Miss Me, Too.

Someone Say Something.

Hey, Denise,
When Did You Get Home?

Ha Ha Ha.

All:
Good-Bye, Denise.

Did You Think You Were
Losing Your Mind?!
