The Overnight Page #2

---

- See you later. Kurt.

- -Bye, buddy.

Wow, he seems cool.

Best case scenario, I think we

just made our first new friends.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Worst case?

We have a boring night

and we go home early.

- Whoa.

- Oh, wow.

That's a pretty nice house.

Up, please.

Oh, sweetie,

it's only a little bit further.

- Here. Will you take that?

- Yeah.

Okay. Come here. Come here.

Want a little bit of a...

What have you been eating?

What's in your belly?

- What the f***, hun?

- -Food!

Food?

- Honey.

- Yeah.

What?

This is Two-Buck Chuck. We can't

bring this to the dinner party.

Why?

Why? 'Cause it's two bucks.

It's what we had. I didn't think

it was gonna make a difference.

This is like what

19-year-old cook with.

Oh, sweetie. It's fine.

- It's fine, right?

- It's kind of a lame move.

I... I think what you're doing

right now is kind of a lame move.

- Hello!

- -Hey.

Welcome, new friends.

I'm Charlotte.

- Hi.

- You must be Alex.

- Come on in. Come on in.

- Okay. Thank you.

I'm just gonna kiss

your cheeks. Mmm.

Okay.

- And you must be Emily.

- Yes.

- Beauty! Whoo!

- Well, thank you.

Thank you for that.

Let that kid down.

We'll have them run free here.

All right. There we go.

Hello, sweet pea. Do you wanna eat

pizza until your belly explodes?

- Yeah!

- Yeah?

Oh, I know someone who's been waiting

to play with him all day long.

- Come on in, please.

- -Thank you.

Um, here you go.

This is from a farm up north.

- It's our friend's farm.

- Wow!

Yeah, that's why there's no label,

'cause they recycle the bottles.

- Oh. Okay.

- So... It's organic.

Great. Wow.

Well, thank you so much, Alex.

- Great.

- Come on in.

The boys are just

finishing their homework.

I'm gonna get you

with my horse!

I'm gonna get you

with my horse!

All right, last one. Last one.

"Vamos a la biblioteca. "

Biblioteca!

- Right. Hey.

- -Hey.

Bienvenudos, guys.

- Ciao.

- Hey.

Kurt is speaking Spanish

with Max

in anticipation for some work

we're gonna be doing in Ecuador.

Oh, wow! That's amazing.

Mm-hmm. But with me

- it's mostly French.

- Uh-huh.

You... So, you...

French and Spanish?

Does that ever get

confusing for him? -No.

- Do the two...

- Keeps him on his toes.

I don't know if you guys noticed, but we've got a

seriously delicious situation developing here.

- Oh, yeah.

- Mmm, yum!

- You guys look great.

- Oh, thanks.

Hey, thank you again

for inviting us.

Oh, yeah.

Your house is gorgeous,

by the way.

- Thank you.

- It's beautiful.

I'm proud to say that Kurt designed

and rebuilt the entire thing himself.

Well...

It was just an ugly box

when we bought it.

Holy cow!

I actually based the entire design on Charlotte's

childhood home in the south of France.

Wow. So is that what you do?

You're an architect?

I've... I've lived

many lives, Alex.

I've been born, died and resurrected so

many times, I can't even tell you, but...

Can I show you

what my passion is now?

I'm really excited about it.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Then we'll do pizza.

Here, drink it.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, drink it, taste it.

- How does that taste?

- Oh. It's... It's really good.

Are you familiar with desalinization

through reverse osmosis?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

- You are.

- -Um...

Remind me again

what, what it is.

So, that water that you're drinking was

processed through a filtering system

that I've been developing

for the past ten years.

My own personal system.

What's wrong with a...

Like a normal filter?

They only last about 36 hours. After that

you're basically drinking liquid cancer.

- Mmm.

- But with my system,

we're essentially taking spoiled lemons

and making sweet, sweet lemonade.

Like that water that you're drinking

right there, that was initially sewage.

Pretty amazing, right?

- Mmm.

- Oh.

Yeah. So you see how far...

- Oh, no. Oh, no. Alex...

- Oh-oh.

Alex. Alex, it's beyond clean. I

would not give you disgusting water.

- He's just joking.

- I know he's kidding.

No, it's so good.

- Well, thank you.

- It's really good.

We already have our system set up in

some of the poorest parts of the world.

Like your Cubas, your

Northern Pakistans... -Wow.

Your Central Republic

of Africas.

We're taking this b*tch

village to village.

- Oh, my God, just...

- Before you can...

Sometimes the only way

to shut him is to kiss him.

That's not true. Is that true?

- No, I mean...

- I stop talking.

I'm so proud of you, darling.

- I stop. I stop.

- I'm f***ing hungry.

Okay.

Are you hungry?

I'm sure you are.

Are you guys f***ing hungry?

- Sure.

- Yeah.

One more piece of pizza

for old tubby over here.

Oh...

Seriously, buddy, you don't have to

barf to show us you like the food.

Honey, he might have a point there.

I don't know.

Jesus, I feel like I'm on

Intervention or something.

Just let him have one more piece.

He's a growing boy.

- Thank you, Charlotte.

- You're welcome.

The pizza is yucky.

Doesn't look like

you thought it was yucky.

It's so good, you know what

it makes me think about?

What?

Isn't he the funniest?

You know what?

- Hold on, I just wanna say one thing.

- He's very funny.

I wanna say one thing.

You know, one of our main

worries coming here was

that we wouldn't be able to meet

new people or make new friends.

Um...

And I have to say that tonight

you guys really put that to bed.

- And, and, and...

- It's true.

It is true. -It's true.

He's... Yeah.

And I just wanna say, thank you for having

us in your beautiful home. -Thank you.

Glad we could be of service.

Cheers. -So, thank you.

And, you know what, speaking

of being put to bed.

Yeah, I think we're hitting

the wall here energy-wise.

- Yeah, it's close.

- Yeah.

It's gonna be all like the squirt's

rules from here on out. - Yeah.

RJ, are you ready

to say goodbye to Max?

Only in America do we let children

dictate when the night is over.

Why don't we put the kids to bed

upstairs and continue down here?

Carry him home later,

once we're done.

- Yeah.

- What do you think?

This is a French house.

Yeah, it's a French house.

- Oh.

- I don't...

Well, we... No, we... We'll

just get out of your hair.

- We want you to stay.

- -It's fine.

We want it. We want it.

- I mean...

- Is that what...

- Yes.

- Settled then. All right.

I'm not done with you two yet.

And as for you two kids.

You come with me upstairs because

I have got a surprise for you.

Do you like surprises?

- Me!

- Yes!

Give me 20 minutes and I will

give you parental bliss.

Come on, sit down.

- Wait for me!

- -I...

- What do you think?

- I mean...

Why not?

Can't sleep.

Kurt's got it. Just give it a second.

Trust me on this.

- Night night.

- Good night.

Un-f***ing-believable.

Pretty amazing people,

huh, babe?

Best case scenario?

I love you.

Shh. Night night.

Sleep tight, boys.

You are a man of many talents.

I am.

- I love you so much.

- Love you so much.

- So, Charlotte...

- You're the best.

You know, I'm realizing as we're sitting
