That's right. East meets South.

You know, I got a little potato salad

from Sylvia's coming in.

Maybe you want some of that.

Or you wanna just sit here

and eat the white people potato salad?

I've never seen you

do anything with...

Yeah, thought so.

Now get.

You're gonna kill me.

I was wrong about honey.

It was supposed to be mayonnaise.

- Good news is, I got some Bactine.

- Hey, hey!

Just let it soak in.

- You're spraying the phone.

- It relieves pain on contact.

What's up with the ballroom?

Oh, I thought we talked about this, pal.

You don't gotta do what you're doing.

I can handle it. Don't book anything.

Listen to me.

- Think of it as...

- You gotta trust me. Gotta trust me.

- Hang the phone up. It's the truth.

- It's just a backup.

- I... I can handle it.

- Okay.

- I can handle it.

- Watch the hands.

I don't wanna hurt the hands.

Let go of it. Let go.

Hello? Dr. Cortice, I got The Plaza.

No, that's all good.

We can cancel that.

- Sorry? Cancel it?

- Okay.

Thanks for all your help.

Sorry, pal. Had to.

I don't sound like that.

I... You do a little.

- All right. All right.

- Who?

What're you doing?

Who you talking to?

Some guy from the mayor's office.

He wants to see Seymour.

Give me the phone.

Give me the phone.

Seymour. Seymour, wake up.

Hey, bud, wake up.

Hi. Hi. Hi, how are you?

Come on.

Yeah, there.

Seymour! You gotta wake up!

They want us there at three o'clock.

Okay, how's this?

If you act nice,

we'll take you to the bachelor party.

Yeah! Yeah!

There he is.

It's an honor, sir.

- Tits.

- Thank you.

And you're...

A friend.

I just came to get out of the house.

Okay, great. If you'll follow me.

We just need to go into the next room,

where you'll meet the mayor.

Welcome, Private.

How you doing there?

All right, come with me.

It is a real honor to have

this Long Island-born heroic veteran

from World War II,

Private Seymour Lustig,

back here in West Hempstead, Long Island,

to be honored at City Hall.

And we hope you'll be back

many more times, Private.

Now I'll be happy to answer

any of your questions.

Mr. Mayor,

are you gonna have your office

release your ledgers and payroll records,

as required by the Board of Supervisors?

Please. We have a war hero here,

all right?

- No time for these types of questions.

- If you have nothing to hide...

You know, I am really disappointed

in you guys bringing up this garbage

when we're honoring a great man.

The mayor has been great

to Private Lustig.

He's even honoring him

this weekend, as well.

- Yeah, we're gonna have a little...

- Yeah, we're having a dinner.

We're having a dinner.

Incredibly generous of the mayor.

Um... Listen. I've always been

a great supporter of our military.

- This was...

- Right here.

Saturday night.

Uh, Uncle Seymour is just so overwhelmed

by the mayor's kindness. It's...

That means he's touched.

I hope that was okay, Mr. Mayor.

I... I just saw the wolves moving in.

I figured I had to say something.

Well, I appreciate it.

You don't have to do any

of that stuff I was mentioning.

No, no, it's a good idea.

I mean, you said it,

so I gotta do it, right?

We are having a party

for Uncle Seymour

on Saturday night already, so...

That's fine. You'll have it here.

How many people you expecting?

Oh... About... 180.

Hmm.

That's fine. Uh...

I just fired a teacher.

I have a little wiggle room in the budget.

Uh, we'll get some photographers

and have a party.

I mean, look at that. Look at that.

Okay.

Yeah.

No need for photographers.

No need for food.

We get it all included.

So, we don't need a magician?

No! I mean, I still think

that would've been good,

but no, you don't need that.

- God! I'm so relieved!

- Good, all right.

I mean, I knew you'd come through, Dad.

I did.

- I love you. I love you.

- When do we get going?

What time's the bachelor party?

Oh! You coming

to the bachelor party, Seymour?

Kenny, darling,

why don't you take Isaac with you?

Take him to the bachelor...

Because he's 11 years old, Ma.

Just so things don't get too crazy.

Where am I going?

I actually... I'm not sure

how to get there.

I printed the directions.

Oh. Thank you.

Seymour. Seymour's got it.

Hey.

Hey! What's going on, fellas?

Isaac's here?

Yeah, yeah.

Couldn't let my son be happy

for one more day?

What's up, Dad?

Hey, Dr. Cortice,

how are you?

- Kenny.

- Hi. Hi.

How're you doing, fellas? Look at you.

That was very creative, fellas.

- Whose idea was...

- Tyler, when do we get to jump?

- We don't jump.

- We just watch.

Noah, is the music bothering you?

Why don't you listen

to that ocean waves sound on your iPod?

I said I shouldn't be here.

This is not fun for me.

Yes, and people said, "Don't come."

- I don't wanna be that guy who can't come!

- Oh, boy.

He's right on the edge. No triggers.

Guy? Can you shut off the music, please?

Yeah, now. Shut it off.

It's okay. You can keep dancing.

These gummies are hilarious.

I know. It's really hard to find ones

with little gummy scrotes! Oh, wait.

Morgan, have you tried the Dickorice yet?

I'm already in the middle

of this Jell-O shot.

Oh. You're gonna love it.

It has a very accurate aftertaste.

Okay, Sarah?

My sweet princess.

No!

Oh, yes!

Robin, this is so...

Corny?

Oh, is that funny to you, huh?

Guys, I think she's drunk.

And she's had one drink.

Danielle never drinks.

Are you okay, cutie?

Maybe she just needs to calm herself down,

'cause we've got a lot to get through.

We haven't even gotten to

the tipstick yet.

It was the right thing to send Noah home.

For his safety.

The Uber came in four minutes.

It was meant to be.

Whoo!

Ignacio!

Hey, ladies, who wants

some of this triple bypass money?

- Come on. Let's do it now.

- Okay.

Oh!

- Yeah!

- That is not cool.

- Not cool at all.

- Yeah!

World War II!

World War Two!

World War II! World War II!

Drink! Drink!

- Drink!

- Yeah!

I love you, man!

Seriously! Thank you for your service!

I wanna go there!

He wants the titties.

Yeah!

One!

Two!

Incoming!

Seymour?

Seymour?

Where is he?

Everybody, get over here!

Get over here! Jump in! Come on!

Hey, Marvin, dig right there. Dig there.

You two over there.

Come on. Hurry. Hurry.

There's a man with no legs down there.

Come on, Tyler.

- Kenny, we need your help. Jump in.

- I'll call you back.

We can't find Seymour.

He's in there somewhere.

What do you mean, he's in there?

Who let him in?

Where is he? Where is he?

I think I feel something.

- There! There he is!

- Seymour.

Pull it! Pull it off!

He can barely breathe!

- All right!

- We gotta get him out!

Dr. Cortice! Where are you?

What's going on?

Something happen?

All right. Before we go...

Does he have any preexisting condition

we need to know about?

What would you need to know about?

Well, we need to know what medications

he's taking or can't take.

Does he have a preexisting condition?

He...
