It's Okay, Winnie And Nelson,
Mommy's Here.

Winnie, Please Stop It.

You're Making Nelson Upset.

( Teapot Whistling )

Come On, You Guys.

You Haven't Given Me
A Moment's Rest All Day.

I Need
A Cup Of Tea.

All I Ask For Is One Cup Of Tea.

You Guys Can Cry
The Rest Of The Night

If You'll Just
Give Me Five Minutes.

Oh... You Did It.

You Love Me.

Thank You.

I Had The Most Fantastic Day.

In Anatomy Class,
The Professor Asked

If Anyone Could
Locate The Incus Bone

And Guess Who Found It.

Moi.

How Was Your Day?

It Was Awful.

I've Got To Say Hello

To My Sweet Little
Sleeping Beauties.

Don't Go Near The Babies.

It Took Me Over Four Hours
To Settle Them Down.

But I'm Their Da-Da.

I Want To Touch Their
Nosies And Toesies.

I Do Not Want Them To Cry.

Did You Have A Hard Day?

Hard?

I Haven't Had A Moment To Myself
Since : This Morning.

Why Don't You
Take A Walk, Muffin?

Take A Walk?

As If That's Going
To Solve Anything.

Is That What They're
Teaching You In Medical School?

And Don't
Call Me Muffin.

I'm Sorry... Puffin.

Don't Call Me Puffin.

I Hate That Even
More Than Muffin.

I'm Sorry, Sondra.

May I
Call You Sondra?

You Don't Know
What I Go Through.

You're Off At Medical School
Talking With People

Discussing Science And Life.

Then You Just Come In Here,
Pick Up The Babies And Say

"Hi, It's Me, Da-Da."

You Spin Them Around A Few Times

Put Them Back And Go Study.

You're Tired.

Why Don't You
Go To Bed?

I'll Cook Dinner

And Take Care Of The Babies.

We're Going To Mom's For Dinner.

We'll Cancel.

This Is My Chance
For A Nice Dinner

And Adult Conversation.

We're Going.

Of Course We're Going.

I'll Pack Up The Babies

And We'll Be On Our Way.

I Love You.
I Love You.

I Missed You.

( Babies Crying )

They're Just Kidding.

They'll Stop In A Minute.

Look, Please.

My Friend Homer Said
That He Saw Someone

Who Looked Just Like Him
In The Paramus Mall.

Really?

You're As Skeptical

As The Rest Of Them.

I'm Telling You,
Elvis Is Still Alive.

Come On, Dad.

You Really Believe That?

There's Lots Of Proof.

A Tourist From Holland

Was In An Off-Limits Area
Of Graceland.

He Took A Picture
Of The Pool House

And In The Shadows Was A Man
Who Looked Just Like Elvis.

So Elvis Was Taking
A Little Swim?

Absolutely.

He Loved The Water.

Didn't You See Blue Hawaii?

Hey, Dad, I'm Leaving.

Hey, Grandpa.

Have A Good Time.

That's What I Want
To Talk About.

My Date's With Justine.

It's Her Birthday.

Well, Good.
You Give Her My Best.

That's What I Had In Mind.

No... No...

See, You're Best
Is Parked In The Garage.

Could I Borrow
The Keys To It?

You Want
To Borrow My Car?

Come On, Heathcliff.

It's Her Birthday.

The Boy's Trying
To Make A Good Impression.

I Lent You My Car.

That's A Good Idea.

Take Your
Grandfather's Car.

Okay?

It Was Your Car He Asked For.

Keys Are In
The Coat Pocket.

Thanks, Dad.

Do Me A Favor.

The Way You Borrow The Car

Is How
It's Returned.

And Please Turn The Radio Off
When You Get Back.

I Don't Want To Be Frightened
When I Turn It On.

You Got It, Dad.

Thanks.

Elvis Wore A Hat Like That
In Viva Las Vegas.

To Me He Looks Like Zorro
Without The Waterfall.

( Doorbell )

Ah, No.

My In-Laws.

Who Asked You All
To Come Over Here?

Hello, Russell.

Hello, Francine, Lester.

Look At That.

Clair Told Me
About The New Couch.

Ooh, Feel The Fabric.

Cliffy, You Dropped
A Bundle On This One.

Hello, Everybody.

Oh, My Grandchildren.

My Great-
Grandchildren.

It's Only Fair That
The Oldest Person In The Room

Should Have
The First Kiss.

Russell, Be Prepared
To Give That Baby Up.

Look How Big
You've Gotten.

He Still Smells New.

We're Fine, Thank You.

I'm Sorry, Dear.

It's Good To See You.

So, How's
Med School?

It's Sensational.

We're Studying The Diseases
Of The Vascular System.

Today We Saw A Film Taken
Inside An Actual Heart.

That Thing's Beautiful
When It's Pumping.

Oh, Yeah.

We're Studying
The Tricuspids

And The Purkinje
Fibers.

Yes, Please.

The Best Thing...

But Enough About Me.

Have You Guys Noticed
The Sensational Pin

That Sondra's Wearing?

Did You Say Something,
Elvin?

Have You Taken A Look
At Sondra's Pin?

Where Did You
Get It, Sondra?

I Forget.

We Got It At That
Little Shop In Soho.

Sondra Picked It Out
All By Herself.

Tell Them The Salesgirl Said
You Had An Eye For Jewelry.

The Salesgirl Said I Had
An Eye For Jewelry.

Elvin, They
Working You Hard?

You're Looking
Tired, Man.

Dad, It's Exhausting.

But Not As Exhausted As I'd Be

If I Was Taking
Care Of Two Babies.

Has It Been
Difficult, Sondra?

What Do You Care?

Clair, You Cook
A Mean, Mean Jambalaya.

Clair Didn't Cook
That Jambalaya.

I Did.

In That Case,
It Was Too Salty.

You Men, Into The Living Room.

We'll Get The Coffee
And Dessert Ready

If You'll Wash The Dishes.

It's A Deal.

When I Met Lester,
He Didn't Know How To Do Dishes.

He Said, "On The Island
Where I Come From

Men Don't Do That."

I Told Him

"You're On The Island
Of Manhattan Now

So Get Into That Kitchen."

We're Going
To Go Where The Women Do

Whatever The Men Say.

I'll Make Some Coffee.

Francine, The Trays
Are Under There.

Anna:
I'll Get
The Cream.

This Has Been
A Wonderful Evening.

I Noticed One Person

Who Is Not Having
A Good Time.

My Daughter-In-Law.

I Know Why.

She's Spending A Lot Of Time
Alone With The Babies

Now That Elvin's
In School.

That Poor Child.

I Know What One's Like,
But I Can't Imagine Twins.

Hi.

Hi, Sweetheart.
Hi, Sondra.

Come Sit With Us.

I'll Just Do These Dishes.

The Men Are Going To Do Them.

They Don't Have To.

It's What I Was Put
On Earth To Do.

You Silly Goose.

Come Over Here
And Sit Down.

What's So Funny?

Welcome To
The Club.

What Club?

The I-Didn't-Know
It-Would-Be-Like-This

After-The-Baby Club.

What Did You Think
It Would Be Like?

I Don't Know.

I Saw Babies In The Park
And They Were So Cute.

I Couldn't Wait
To Have One.

I'd See Elvin And Me
Playing With Them--

Sitting Around,
Discussing Their Future.

You Dug A Nice
Little Hole For Yourself.

It's Nothing
Like That.

I'm Up All Day And Night.

I'm Up All The Time.

No?!

Then Elvin Comes Home

Plays With Them
For Five Minutes

Then Sticks His Nose
In A Book.

Uh-Huh.
Uh-Huh.

I'm Stuck With The Mess,
And He's Getting A Degree.

Uh-Huh.
Uh-Huh.

I'll Tell You One Thing,
Daddy Doctor Elvin.

After What You Have
Put Me Through

I'm Dumping Those Kids On You.

Then You Can Take Care
Of Them And Run A Practice

While I Go To Law School.

All Right, Child.

God Bless
The Truth.

Tell It!
Tell It!

I Don't Know What We Did,
But We Did It.

What's The Matter?

The Women Are Worked Up
About Something In There.

Uh-Oh.

Elvin!

Yeah?

Come Down Here, Son.

Coming.

What's Up?

The Women Are Worked Up
About Something.

Now What Did You Do?

Why Does It Have To Be Me?

Because We've
Been Married Longer.

They Don't Expect
As Much From Us.

Sondra And I Had An Argument
Over The Babies.

Maybe She's Still Upset.

I'll Go
Talk To Her.

Sit, Sit, Sit.

Are You Losing
Your Mind?

What Is It?

You Go In There Now...

We'll Have To Peel You
Off The Ceiling.

It's Not Working Out
Like It Was Supposed To.

Sondra And I Talked About This.

She Would Raise The Children
While I Was In Med School.

After I Got My Practice Going,
She Would Go To Law School.

I'm Holding Up My Part.

What Is
The Problem?

Have You Ever Spent
An Entire Day At Home

With A Baby?

No.

When I Do Anything With Them,
She Says I'm Doing It Wrong.

Welcome To The Club.

It's The Club Where Husbands
Do Nothing Right.

We've Been Through All That.

Every One Of Us.

Welcome Aboard.

What Should I Do?

Whatever The Mother
Wants You To Do.

What About All Those
Nasty Things She Says?

Take It.
Take It.

Take It?

Take It.

What About When She Says
I Did Things Wrong

That I Didn't Do?

Take It!

Take It.

Aren't They Beautiful?

Look At Her
Tiny Little Hands.

Yeah, Sondra
Did Elvin Good.

What?

My Brother Says A Baby
Is The Greatest Gift

A Woman
Gives A Man.

Gives A Man?!

A Woman Does Not
Give A Man A Baby.

They Share It.

She Gives It To Him.

He Lends It To Her To Raise.

When I Have My Baby,
I'm Getting A Good Job

And My Husband's
Staying Home With The Baby.

Looks Like You Won't
Be Having Babies.

Yes, I Will,
And I'll Have A Good Job, Too.

That's The Problem
With The World Today--

Too Many Women Working.

They Mess Things Up.

No, We Don't.

My Brother Works For A Woman.

If He's A Half Hour Late
Or Falls Asleep At His Desk

She's All Over Him.

I'll Never Work For A Woman.

Then You'll Never Work,
Because We're Everywhere.

I'll Get A Job Building Houses.

Women Do That.

Then I'll Dig Ditches.

Women Do That.

Then I'll Join The Army.

We're In The Army, Too.

We Can Do
Everything You Can Do...

Only Better.

You See, Elvin,
It's Up To You.

You Can Make Things
A Lot More Peaceful

If You Just Help Out

A Little
Bit More.

Let Me Tell You
One Simple Thing.

When Sondra Was Three
And Denise Was One

I Saw On Clair's Face Despair.

No Matter What I Said Or Did...

( Hissing )

I Had To Do Something.

It Was A Weekend...
Memorial Day.

I Said

"Dear, You Stay Here,
Do Whatever You Want To Do.

I'm Taking These Children Away
From You For An Entire Weekend."

I Put The Children
In The Car.

We Drove All The Way
Up To Maine.

Took Them Fishing.

Every Place I Went,
I Put Them By My Side.

Their Mother Would Have
Had A Fit The Way I Had Them.

They Never Rolled
Into The Water.

Now And Then A Leaf Would Fall
On Their Face

But It Was Nothing
That Hurt Anything.

I'm Fishing.

I'd Catch A Fish,
And I Would Cook It.

Then I Would Take
All Of The Bones Off

And Mash The Fish.

Just Mash It And Mash The Potato
And Mash The Turnips

Just Like Baby Food.

They Loved It!

Don't Get Me Wrong.

I Love My Babies Very Much.

It's Just That It's So Hard.

Wait Until
These Children Get Older.

Then You'll Belong
To A New Club.

My-Babies-Are-Teenagers-
I-Wish-My-Life-Was-Over Club.

Please Don't Remind Me.

I'm Still In That Club.

Anna And I Are In The Best Club.

They're-Out-Of-The-House-And-
I'm-Only-Stuck-With-My-Husband.

Husbands Can Surprise You.

I Remember Once
I'd Had My Fill Of Babies.

You Were Three, Denise Was One.

I Was Climbing The Walls.

Cliff Must Have Sensed
I Was Burned Out.

He Took You Girls
For A Long Weekend.

I Don't Remember.

That's Because
You Were Too Young.

I Will Never Forget It.

It Was Memorial Day Weekend
Of .

Cliff Packed You Up
And Off You Went

On A Fishing Trip To Maine.

He Told You That?

Uh-Huh.

It Was Friday Evening.

Cliff Showed Up
With Your Daughters

Who Were Crying Their Heads Off.

He Stopped By Your House?

He Begged Me To Take
The Girls Off His Hands.

He Did?

He Said

"Please Just Take Them
For A Weekend."

The Girls Spent
The Weekend With You?

The Whole Weekend.

I Would Have Called,
But Cliff Said

You Were At A Reunion
At Hillman.

Cliff, Darling, Could You
Come Into The Kitchen, Please...

Now?

Uh-Oh.

There's The Call To Glory.

What Is It,
My Little Turtledove?

Come Into This Den
Of Evil Women.

Yes, Have A Seat,
Sweetheart.

What Is Going On?

I'm Telling Everybody

What A Good Husband
And Father You Were.

I Was Telling Sondra

About The Time You Took
Her And Denise Fishing.

I Was Just Telling
Elvin About That.

The Fishing Trip Memorial Day?

With The Babies.

What Memorial Day
Are You All Talking About?

The Year Was

And There's Only One
Memorial Day A Year.

I Know There's Only
One Memorial Day.

Everybody Knows That.

Tell Me Something That
I Don't Know.

Why Don't You Tell
Sondra About That?

You Must Remember.

You Caught The Fish
And Smashed Them Up

So The Girls Could Eat.

I Don't Like To Brag.

Tell Sondra How You
Stopped By My House

And Dropped Her Off.

There Are A Lot Of Times When
The Children And I Went Places.

We Were Free Spirits
At The Time.

There Was Only
One Fishing Trip...

And You Dropped Those Babies
Over At My House

And Shamelessly Went On
Your Way Fishing...

And Lied To Your Mother
About Your Wife's Whereabouts!

That Was Because She Was
Crying All The Time.

I Put Her In The Back Of The Car
And She Started Crying.

She Was Hitting
These High-Pitched Notes.

I Didn't Know
If She Would Go Higher.

Denise Started
To Not Smell So Good.

I Went By My Mother's House.

She Said,
"What Are You Doing?

There's The Beautiful Children."

That's What
You Said.

And Then You Said To Me

"Leave These Babies Here
And Just Go Fishing."

I Wasn't Serious.

As Soon As I Said It,
You Kissed Me And Darted Out

And Went
Off To Maine.

After Hearing This Story,
I Think More Of Elvin.

He Tells Me The Truth.

You Should Be Ashamed.

Can I Take The Dessert
To The Men?

No.
No.

And Get Out.

Get Out Faster.

What Happened?

The Women Are Discussing

The Man's Role
In Raising Children.

They Wanted My Expertise.

So, Cliff, You Really
Straightened The Women Out.

I Was Brutal.

Ah!

I Told Them Where To Pick It Up

And Where
To Lay It Down.

Good Thing We Had You In There.

What You're Telling Us Doesn't
Sound Like Anything We Heard

When We Were By
The Door Listening.

You Were Listening?

We Heard Every Word.

Elvin, May I See You
In Here, Please?

Uh, Yes, Pu... Sondra.

Don't Forget.

Take It.

Take It.

Take It.

Take It.

Take It.

He's Taking It.
