Synopsis: Hamburger joint waitress Sally Jackson is pregnant. When Beatrice, the wife of the father, finds out about his infidelity, she sends her sons from a previous marriage, military pilots Angus and Dorian Montier, to scare the living daylights out of him. Their gunship does such a good job, without hitting him, that he dies from a heart attack. Worrying about radio interference that night, they investigate who might have heard too much within the fairly empty reception perimeter, and soon discover only Sally could, still ignorant about her affair with his step-dad Henry. Dorian takes a job there to be sure, but soon falls for her himself, while mother-obsessed moron Angus would do anything to anyone for her honor...

Are you the father-to-be?

The father-to-be's dead!

I'm the stepbrother and I'm also

the father's stepson...

...but I'd like to be the father-to-be.

You can't be the father

and the brother at the same time.

That's the kind of thing

that messes kids up.

Then you're not immediate family.

I'm the Lamaze partner.

Right, Sally?

I'm sorry, sir.

You need to tell her to relax her jaw.

Bottom beef, bottom cheese,

middle bun, top beef...

...top cheese.

Special sauce...

...chopped onions...

...two pickles.

Top bun...

...slide it in.

Bottom beef, bottom cheese...

Suit up. She's asking for you.

I'm your brother.

Stepbrother, actually.

Technically, your father

was married to my mother.

And he's also my stepfather.

So I think we're pretty much okay there.

Now...

...your mother...

...wasn't married to your father...

...but your father was married...

...to your grandmother.

You probably won't

be seeing a lot of her.

But I do want you to meet...

...Angus, your stepbrother...

...my brother.

He's got a short commitment

to the state...

...but the main thing...

The thing...

Family's the thing.

And you got that in spades.

You know, you got the greatest

mother in the world.

Whatever you want to call me,

I want you to know...

...that I'll always be there

for you too.

I don't think he got all that.

We'll make sure he does.
