- She's not.

- She's not gonna be able to make dinner?

- Nope.

- That's how it lays out.

- I don't believe it.

- It's true.

- I swear.

She's not gonna make

chicken pepperoni?

Nope. She's gonna

have her feet scraped.

How long does it take

to scrape feet.

Longer than it takes

to make chicken pepperoni.

- No.

Then we're in very big trouble.

- I can make something else.

- He doesn't want something else.

He wants chicken pepperoni.

Then cancel the dinner.

No, he's making a special trip

from Sacramento.

- No, to make me

Attorney General.

But he loves chicken pepperoni.

You mean, you may not become Attorney

General if I make veal parmesan?

No, I didn't say that.

But, with your ex-husband on the loose,

we're a lot safer with chicken pepperoni.

- Don't yell at me.

- I'm not yelling at you. I'm screaming at you.

We need chicken pepperoni

and we need it fast!

I'll make it! I'll make it!

Only don't make me crazy.

I can't cook when I'm crazy.

- I'm not making you crazy.

- Yes, you are!

You're making me crazy.

Anybody who forces me

to make chicken pepperoni,

is making me crazy.

And you are making me crazy.

I'm not making her crazy.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hold on a second, Joe. Let me

get my secretary another phone.

Jackie, take all this down.

I think we got something, Ira.

So have I.

Hang, hang on a second.

Go ahead, Joe.

Got it.

Got it.

Two cans tomato paste.

Sliced green peppers.

Pimento. Sausage.

What do you mean veal? There's

no veal in chicken pepperoni.

What do you mean,

what's the difference?

There's lots of difference

between veal and chicken.

Call somebody.

Could you call somebody

in Sicily?

Try, Joe. Please try.

Can you believe what I'm doing?

A grown district attorney.

What have you got?

FRED:
What do you see?

IRA:
Hitler!

Adolf Hitler on Candid Camera.

FRED:
I want you to look at the other

photo that was taken at the Carmel bank.

- Look at the two figures in the background.

- IRA:
Yeah.

FRED:
Now.

Look at the enlargement.

We just identified them as Bee

Gee Ramone and Warren Dexter,

twice-convicted

for armed robbers.

In each case, they abducted

some innocent bystander,

and forced them to hand

a stickup note to the teller.

They're very shy

when it comes to pictures.

What're you telling me?

That it's possible

your wife's story is true.

Gardenia may be innocent.

Are you sure?

- I had my heart set on

sending him to jail.

JACKIE:
The Governor's on two.

Stanley, Freddie in my office has just

come up with some new information

that may clear up

everything for us.

Okay, I'll tell you later.

Oh, yeah,

we're still on, 8:00.

Aurora's chicken pepperoni.

I know how you love it.

Okay. See you then.

Love that chicken pepperoni.

Don't start with me, Fred.

Oh, here it is.

- IRA:
Glenda.

- Oh, God!

Jesus, it looks

like an Italian movie.

Knock it off, Ira.

I've had a rough day today.

This is my third batch

of pepperoni sauce.

The dogs are half-dead

from tasting it.

Don't you have any help? Where are the

Mexican girls and the Indian boys?

They got jobs today. Good steady jobs

that I got them just when I need them.

- I found Aurora's.

It's great! It's great!

Except it's in Spanish.

- Chester.

Chester? There's not going

to be anything left for us.

You think I'm going

to eat this stuff?

Where is he?

I better talk to him.

He's in the dining room.

Setting the table.

Come on, guys. Come on.

Who's game for one more taste?

Huh

- GLENDA:
Come on.

- Is that our good waterproof crystal?

- Yes, it was.

Try to be more careful.

Have you ever served before?

Yes, sir. I worked

at McDonald's for two weeks.

Uh-huh. Wha

No paper napkins.

Get linen ones.

The Governor's coming for dinner.

The governor, you know?

- I know.

- You look very good. That tuxedo looks very nice.

Oh, thank you. It's yours.

Mrs. Parks gave it to me.

This glass looks dirty.

That's what I thought.

Chester, clean the glass.

Yes, sir. Anything you say.

Man says clean it,

then I clean it.

Mmm

Do I look all right?

I told you six times, in the

car you look fine, sweetie.

Glen, they're here.

Chester?

- Ah

IRA:
Chester?

- No, I heard the bell.

- The bell's on the door.

- I know.

- Because Mrs. Parks said

for me to keep an eye

on the sauce.

- I watch the sauce

during commercials.

- Chester, will you

answer the door?

- Answer the door!

- Hello.

- Nice to see you, ma'am.

What's happening, brother?

- Good evening.

- Glad you could make it.

Thank you.

- You sure are.

- IRA:
Anne.

- Hi, Ira.

How are you?

Freddie. Any word

on Gardenia or my car?

Your car is still missing but we did get

the stereo system and the telephone.

- He sold it.

Big-time limousine coming.

- Close the door.

Why don't you go in the other

room, make yourselves a drink?

I'll get Glenda.

When the bell on the

door rings, open the door!

Don't I always?

Oh, God.

Glenda. Glenda.

Wake up, honey.

Honey, the Governor's here.

Glenda Glen

- Honey, come on, honey.

Wake up. That's it.

Atta girl.

The Governor's here, honey.

I can't make it.

Go on without me, Ira.

- Save yourself.

Honey, which, which dress

do you want?

I don't care. You pick it out. I

can't make any more decisions.

IRA:
How about the white one

with the little pink flowers?

- Fine.

- Here

Come on, honey. Come on, babe.

- Come on.

Here we go.

Here we are. Here.

- Just get your arm in there.

No, wait a second.

Wait a second. Take this

- Take this off here.

- All right.

Take this No! No

- Wait, honey.

- Honey, don't!

- No. All right, okay, okay.

Just No, no.

No, wait a second.

- This is turning out to be a

fine wine party.

I'm afraid I'd like to see

an entire restructuring

- of the control of hand-guns in our state.

- Mmm-hmm.

We need better and

stronger legislation,

and we need people like Ira

to enforce that legislation.

Stanley, sorry I'm late.

Glenda's got button trouble.

- Hello, Ira. You remember Deidre?

- Hi.

Deidre, of course.

Hello, how are you?

- It's nice to see you.

- Thank you.

Dinner is served.

No, it isn't.

It isn't?

It isn't.

Mrs. Parks is still upstairs.

I thought 8:
00 meant 8:00.

No, 8:
00 means 8:30, 8:45

Oh

He's new.

- Oh, hello, everybody.

- ALL:
Hi, Glenda.

- FRED:
You're looking good.

- Oh, don't mind the way I look.

Ira dressed me in a hurry.

Well, if that's the way you

look, he can dress me anytime.

You heard what Stan said?

- It's me, the first husband!

Oh, oh!

Oh

- Oh

Glen, honey, is there something

we can do about that?

Oh, that's just

the dogs barking.

Uh, Chester, would you go up

and quiet them?

Oh, sure thing.

Chester, the Governor

didn't get his drink.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

I'll take this, Stanley.

You must all be starving. Why

don't we go in and have dinner?

- Come on.

Stan. Fred

Hey, quiet! Quiet! Quiet!

Hey!

Those are our dogs.

Yeah, I assumed.

- No, that's it.

Good.

The house looks lovely.

What have you done to it?
