Uh-huh.

Oh.

Ooh.

- Ah, Jess, Jess, Jess, Jess.

It's not good.

I've seen this before and...

it's always made my adenoids curdle.

Oh, hey, don't monkey with

those switches, Jess.

It'll blow us both to Milwaukee.

It's touch and go from here, pal.

Could go either way, Jess.

Oh, yeah, yeah, Jess,

here for a second?

Listen, buddy, I like

to be alone with my work,

so if you don't mind...

- Yeah.

Gramps said they went in here,

- Uh, listen, fellas,

in the other room.

I think you'd better come have a look.

- Look, Bill, I'm sorry, but this

really isn't a good time.

Why don't you pack it

up and come back tomorrow?

- I think we better go in

the other room and have a look.

(sighs)

Well, there it is.

Looks like you got some kind

of alternate universe

in there or somethin'.

(ominous music)

Come on, Charlie.

- [Charlie] Guess I'm next.

Jess, got any spiders in there?

'Cause you know I--

Look, that's an alternate dimension

in there or somethin' and...

- [Jesse] Incredible.

- Well, hold on a second, will ya?

I've been through

this kinda thing before.

Just don't touch anything

till I get there.

(heroic music)

Looks like you're gonna need

the help of a professional.

(suspenseful music)

- You got a flashlight?

- Yeah.

(suspenseful music)

- [Jesse] You know something?

I'm incredibly scared right now.

- [Charlie] Don't be a fag, okay?

- [Jesse] Shh! Listen.

(faint murmuring)

I think it's coming from over there.

(murmuring in foreign language)

(chanting in foreign language)

(woman whimpering)

There it is.

(speaking in foreign language)

(woman whimpering)

Well, it's not gonna be easy.

(speaking in foreign language)

(woman whimpering)

- They're not gonna

sacrifice her, are they?

- Hey, Jess, now, now,

is she a virgin?

Because I've never seen one before

and she's really dynamite, man.

(snickers)

(shouting in foreign language)

- Hey!

(shouting in foreign language)

(grumbling)

No, no!

- [Charlie] Oh, boy.

(speaking in foreign language)

Well, hey, hey,

come on, come on.

Well, I'm sorry, we thought

that she was somebody

that we knew.

Go ahead, enjoy, it's okay.

(suspenseful music)

- [Jesse] Where's Bill?

I don't see him.

- [Charlie] Go on!

Hey, Bill. All right!

- Oh, Charlie.

Good to see you back.

I started to get

a little concerned here.

- Hey, hey, Bill,

what are you doin' here?

- You know, you guys throw

one heck of a party

and I'd really like to thank you

for inviting me along.

Jess, it's been a pleasure

and miss,

it was a pleasure to meet you.

Oh, and Jess, listen, if you

need any more work done

just give me a call there, huh?

Take care, Charlie.

- [Charlie] See ya.

(heroic music)

Who was that man?

(sniffs)

(grumbling)

(squawking)

- Where the hell's the food?

- I'll go check.

(screeching)

- And tell him we're starvin'.

(barking)

- You know, I've been watchin' her

and she really likes you.

Seriously, she likes you.

- Come on, Charlie.

- I'm serious.

Watch.

Who do you like better, me or him?

Me, Charlie, fun, you know,

crazy guy, nut,

or him?

(whacks)

I rest my case, Jess.

(whacks)

Ow!

- All right.

Well, if everybody's hungry

let's dig in while it's hot.

- Uh, Jess, shouldn't we say grace?

You know, say a few nice words

about God or whoever.

- Um...

(serene fiddle music)

All right, I guess I'd just like to...

thank everyone for their special

contribution to the meal

and to say that I guess

I think of all of you

as, well, my family now.

(purring)

(barking)

Now, let's eat.
