Table 19 Page #5
I was not the kind of girl
who ended up with you.
And when it was time for you to
stand up and say that she's wrong
and they' re all wrong and
they're idiots and stand by me,
then you ask me
if I want to keep it.
That's your first question.
What was I supposed to say, El?
I constantly disappoint you.
Then you tell me
that you think our kid
will grow up thinking
that I'm just a joke.
That I was never
good enough for you.
And you finally found
a way to tell me.
And I was so scared
of losing you that
when you told me
you were pregnant,
I asked if you
wanted to keep the kid.
I'm ridiculous
in a million ways.
I am. I know that
But I can't spend my whole life
disappointing you
as much as I disappoint myself.
Sh*t.
I'm sorry.
Hey, stop.
Teddy! Stop! Teddy!
Leave me alone.
No, Teddy!
No, he doesn't get...
Oh.
Oh, my God.
No, we can fix this.
We can fix this. No, Teddy.
On!
Oh! I'm sorry.
I've been hit.
- Oh...
- Sh*t.
Oh, my God.
Oh...
Oh, sh*t.
Oh, my God.
But I'm ridiculous?
Shake ii up
Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Let's go. Thank you.
Shake ii up
Shake ii up
Yeah, shake it up
Oh...
You want me to call Mr.
Manny on these people?
I have a confession to make.
I'm not actually
a successful businessman.
I was in prison because I stole
$125,000 from
the father of the bride.
It was not a table of honor.
I have a bag of dope in my room.
Room 115 for the dope
in case any of you feel that
a bag of dope
would be fun to do.
Not you.
And not you.
You two can drop by and choose
something from the mini fridge.
That was the worst invitation to
anything I've ever received, ever.
Is your room this way?
Or are you just following us?
Who, me?
Just following.
Honestly, it stiff sounds
better than junior prom, honey.
Junior prom is a honor show.
Well, if the thinking was for me
to see people at their most happy,
I would have to say that seems
to be a huge miscalculation.
Did you just break
another chair?
What kind of nanny are you?
Retired.
Wow, the last time
Jerry and I did this
was the last time
Jerry and I had sex.
Three... Actually,
over three years ago.
But no one's counting.
Oh, thank you.
You don't have to do this.
It might be best.
he might tell my parole officer
and then they'd
send me back to jail
or extend my time
at the halfway house.
I share a room with a man
called Jalapeno
who has a smiley face tattooed
on the end of his penis
so that when he pees
it looks like
it's vomiting sunshine.
He's not as sweet as he sounds.
Well, then you shouldn't do it.
Jalapeno doesn't sound like
a good roommate.
No.
I don't know, unless Uncle Roger
is lurking around outside the
door, I mean...
ls it Uncle Roger?
Nope.
Hi.
I just wanted to say sorry.
I take things too far.
Usually, I'm the only
one who gets hurt,
but it didn't work out like
that today, so I'm sorry.
Join us.
Or do you have
somewhere else to be?
No.
You know, a whole table
disappeared from a wedding
and I bet no one even knows.
We can go anywhere, do anything.
The day is ours.
Hello. My name is Walter
and I'm a successful pothead.
I'm smoking the reefer.
Who smokes pot?
Are you a potter?
- No.
- No?
You're a pothead.
You got a table
with a Jot of your friends
Waitin' for your ship to come in
Folks like me on the job
from nine to five
Concierge, please.
Hi.
Um, can you tell me
when the next ferry arrives?
In about 30 minutes.
Okay. Thanks.
There's a dog in your bathtub.
See? That's what I
mean about hotel bathtubs.
You know, marriage is
till death do us part.
What does that mean? Does that
mean you're gonna get to heaven
and men you'll be single,
and then do whatever
you want at that point?
Maybe.
Nobody knows
what happens after you die.
You are Romeo and Juliet.
And we all wish you
the same happy ending;.
Congratulations,
and best of luck.
When I was a kid,
I wanted to be a magician.
I always wanted to be
a nightclub singer.
Fiction writer.
Now I own a diner.
Bina took over
her family's diner.
And I got suckered
into managing it
after we got married
just like she wanted.
Like I wanted?
Who else would've wanted that?
You asked my father
if you could.
You renamed the family
diner after yourself.
That was your idea.
What?
Uh-huh.
I wanted to be a high school guidance
counselor but instead I went to prison.
You made the right decision.
How did you steal
all that money?
Right. Yeah, well, uh...
Roger got me a job in his office
when he worked
for the Ford Motor Company.
I'm quite good with numbers,
so I worked out a way
to steal $125,000.
So I did.
What did you do with it?
Oh, it wasn't for myself.
My friend Eric, who's an absolute
sweetheart, a lovely bloke,
his wife was very sick
and needed an operation.
Well, then you saved a life.
wasn't as sick as we thought.
On account of the fact
she didn't exist.
I don't think
he'd ever been married.
What?
He made it up
just for the money.
You just called him
a sweetheart!
He was a lovely bloke.
He was always nice to me.
Except for when he made me
go to prison.
Renzo.
Yeah, what?
What's with the fur tie?
Oh, thank you.
It's pretty dumb.
No, come on.
Yeah, it is. It is.
My mom believed it would
ever so slightly
convey my sexual prowess.
Clonk.
Terrible parents were
my bread and butter.
Remember that suit
I was wearing earlier?
The chaplain from the halfway
house got me that from Goodwill.
And then now I'm wearing
the suit of a beautiful lady.
Oh, thank you very much.
Thank you.
You wear it well.
No. I look all right.
Wait. Why didn't
your dad stop you?
Well, this is my dad's,
actually.
He's dead now, which is
why I get to wear it. So...
Did he say...
Yeah.
Sorry for laughing
about your dead dad.
Hey, no... Guys, no.
It's not all that.
I barely knew the guy, so...
Strangers die
all the time, right?
I mean, 150 people
die every second.
150 people right there.
Can't get worked up over it.
You know?
Better?
No, not really.
Thank you for trying.
My junior prom is tonight.
But my mom said I'd
probably have a better chance
here where nobody knew me, so...
I would have danced with you.
Now, in high school, I certainly
would have danced with you.
And if you want to dance now,
we can just turn on
the radio and just dance.
I don't think so, but thank you.
You smiled
You smiled
And men the spell was cast
Now here we are in heaven
'Cause you are mine
At last
F***.
Here, Ringo! Here, Ringo.
Wonder how my daughter's
gonna feel not having a dad?
Daughter?
Yeah.
I mean, I know it's too early
to know, but... I know.
Well, I have a request
Don't call her Jo.
I met you today and you think I'm
gonna name my daughter after you'?
No, of course not.
I've been a nanny to a lot
and if they don't see fit...
