TV: The Saturday sports spectacular continues with the national junior collegiate cheerleaders
quarter finals. Blonde division.
Ben: Alright!
TV: Don't touch that dial.
Ben: I ain't touching1 nothing.
Chrissy: What are you watching Ben?
Ben: Chrissy, do you have to eat your breakfast in here?
Carol: Yes she does. What are you watching?
Ben: Cartoons apparently2.
Mike: Hey dad!
Carol: He's upstairs.
Mike: Hey Dad!
Carol: Must you yell?
Mike: How else is he going to hear me? Hey dad, if you want me to go to the gym with you,
I'm already. I didn't shower and everything.
Carol: He's in bed Mike.
Mike: What's he doing asleep? Its nine thirty.
Carol: I didn't say he was sleeping.
Mike: Oh! One of those Saturdays.
Ben: One of what Saturdays?
Mike: You know...
Carol: Mike, do you mind.
Chrissy: Like I haven't heard worse around here!
Ben: What are you guys talking about?
Mike: Hey Ben, go back to your cartoons.
Ben: They're not my cartoons. If it was up to me I'd be up to here in the blonde division. Now
what are mum and dad doing upstairs?
Mike: You seriously don't know? Come on Ben.
Carol: Chrissy.
Mike: We've met.
Carol: No, what we are talking about.
Mike: Look Ben, what do little horn balls your age think of every waking hour of their lives?
Chrissy: food.
Ben: Hey, she took my answer.
Carol: I think it's safe to let go of Chrissy's ears.
Ben: Its not food, what else ids there?
Mike: It makes you want to puke hu?
Ben: So stupid.
Chrissy: So he knows too.
Mike: You know dad. This is what life is all about. Sweating with your father.
Jason: It took me a year to get you here.
Mike: You wait. It sure won't be a year until I come back.
Jason: What are you after Mike?
Mike: Come on. You honestly think I'm saying all this just to hit you up for a few dollars?
Jason: How few?
Mike: Two hundred. Eddie and I want to go in on a beach house.
Jason: Where?
Mike: Well, it kind of depends on how this goes.
Jason: You are nowhere near the sand Mike.
Mike: Wow! Wow!
Lady: Hey Jase. Look at you!
Jason: I'd rather look at you Gretchen.
Gretchen: You are really coming along.
Jason: Thank you. Thank you.
Gretchen: Your chest looks strong.
Jason: Yeah, want to see it dance.
Gretchen: You are really firming up.
Jason: Well hello there.
Gretchen: I'll see you later.
Jason: See you.
Mike: Alright dad.
Jason: What.
Mike: That was a woman.
Jason: No.
Mike: And she was actually coming on to you.
Jason: It happens occasionally.
Mike: And you were coming on to her.
Jason: Come on. Are you kidding. I barely noticed she was attractive.
Mike: Oh come on dad. You do exactly what I do with women. Only not so well.
Jason: I don't know what you are talking about Mike. I was just being nice to her.
Mike: Nice! Dad you were flirting4. And you're a married man.
Jason: Since when did being married mean that you can't talk to a woman.
Mike: Dad, I'm not saying that. All I'm saying is that for just two hundred dollars, mum may
never need to answer that question.
Jason: Mike, Mike. You have no idea what a worthwhile relationship is all about.
Mike: One seventy-five?
Jason: For your information, not only would your mother not mind if a young lady and I shot
the breeze, but it is my opinion, and this is my professional gut5 instinct, my guess is that your
mother would think it's kind of cute.
Mike: Cute!
Jason: Yeah cute. Cos what happens you see, is that when your mother sees me, you know...
Mike: Shooting the breeze.
Jason: Shooting the breeze, with another woman, it reminds her that I belong to her and she
has something of value.
Mike: One fifteen this never happened.
Maggie: Ben.
Ben: Yes.
Maggie: Ben, you are supposed to be entertaining Chrissy.
Ben: I am.
Chrissy: Ben, the commercial's over. You are missing a blonde pyramid.
Ben: Its ok, I'm taping it.
Maggie: Is anything wrong?
Ben: No.
Maggie: Did you want to talk about something?
Ben: Did you want to talk to me about something?
Maggie: Ben do you have a problem? You look more lost and confused than usual.
Ben: Let's just say I'm stunned7.
Maggie: About what?
Ben: Nothing I can talk to you about. I need my space.
Maggie: Well ok. Well whenever you want to talk about whatever's on your mind, I'm
available.
Ben: That's what I hear.
Maggie: Ben, Ben. Come here. You know honey, you can ask me anything. I was once your
age. I was once a confused kid with bad skin too.
Ben: What's wrong with my skin?
Maggie: oh nothing sweetheart. I just meant that I'm human.
Ben: Human. She's human! Since when? She's human. So is dad. They have needs. They take
their pants off one leg at a time. Parents are people!
Carol: Ben, how dare you have our little sister watch a blonde pyramid. Oh and now you hit
me on the head with a banana. How did you do that?
Maggie: Oh Chrissy!
Chrissy: I didn't do it.
Maggie: Ben, I thought you were supposed to be watching your sister.
Ben: I am.
Mike: Dad, I just want to know why you weren't as nice to the towel guy as you were to the
juice bunny.
Jason: Ok, ok. Alright. I admit. Maybe I was a little nicer to the juice girl than I was to the
towel guy. I don't think your mother would mind that I'm a little nice to people who are a little
nice to me. Nough said.
Mike: Like mum's dumb enough to buy that.
Maggie: Like mums dumb enough to buy what?
Chrissy: Hi daddy.
Jason: Hi sweetheart. Isn't that a bit too much make up?
Maggie: Don't change the subject. Mum's not dumb enough to buy what.
Jason: I'm glad you're here Maggie. I need you to help me demonstrate something to the boy.
Maggie: Ok.
Jason: It seems that Mike here, has the mistaken impression that you, as a woman would be
upset if I, as a man, were to speak to another woman.
Mike: Speak! Ha ha.
Maggie: Pardon me?
Jason: Nothing honey. Come on. All we did was talk.
Maggie: Who?
Mike: Well apparently she likes to talk with her hands.
Maggie: Who?
Jason: Come on. She merely patted my stomach and tapped my chest.
Mike: And grabbed your butt8.
Maggie: Who are you talking about?
Mike and Jason: Gretchen.
Maggie: Oh Gretchen. Who in the hell is Gretchen, and where did she grab you again?
Jason: In the gym. Mike has the mistaken impression that you as a woman would be upset if
me, as a man...
Maggie: Jason, just tell me what you are trying to say?
Mike: Yeah dad. I'd kind of like to hear how you explain this babe too.
Jason: Let's not be chauvinistic9 here. A babe did not grab me Mike. A woman.
Maggie: What?
Mike: And to think we could have avoided all this ugliness.
Jason: It's not fair. Now all I did was to be nice to her.
Maggie: How nice?
Jason: Let me put it this way. I was basically the same to the towel guy.
Mike: Come on dad. The towel guy didn't pat you on the behind.
Jason: He could have. Nobody was stopping him.
Maggie: now, now wait a minute.
Jason: It's very simple. I was just as a man, to a woman...
Maggie: Not you Jason. Mike?
Mike: Mum, this babe goosed dad.
Jason: Oh, that's such an exaggeration. It was so innocent. And it all developed out of a
conversation about my body.
Maggie: Ha ha ha. And I bet your dad went "well hello there".
Jason: You know me too well Maggie.
Maggie: Yes I sure do honey.
Mike: You really don't mind, do you?
Jason: And hope that one day you will have a mature relationship like your mum and me do.
Mike: Well I don't. I think this is kind of sick. Mum, if I had a husband and he was flirting
around with other women, I would be pretty upset.
Jason: So would we.
Mike: Mum, how can you think this is cute?
Maggie: Pardon me?
Mike: Yes, dad thinks that you think it's cute when he flirts10 with other women because it
makes you feel like a lucky doll. How dad, why don't you give mum a real hoot6 and take this
babe out for a spin?
Jason: Boy, he's got a lot to learn, hu?
Jason: Maggie, dinner reservation's in ten minutes. Carol, make sure Chrissy's in bed by
eight.
Chrissy: Nine.
Jason: Eight fifteen.
Chrissy: Eight forty five.
Jason: Eight thirty.
Chrissy: Done.
Jason: I'm getting too old for this.
Mike: Hey dad, am I still covered by your auto11 insurance?
Jason: Yeah.
Mike: Good.
Jason: What? Good! Why?
Mike: No, no. I didn't get in an accident. It's just that well, since I am now financially unable to
afford a beach house, I'm going to be doing a lot of driving this summer.
Jason: Sorry I asked. Reservations in eight minutes Maggie.
Mike: So, you are all dressed up.
Jason: Yes. I'm taking your mother out for a little dinner this evening.
Mike: In your groveling suit.
Jason: I'm not groveling. This isn't groveling. No I just carefully planned a spontaneous
evening.
Mike: well mum must be pretty upset about your flirting, hu?
Jason: No she isn't and I didn't. You know, women can be strange. Who knows what is really
the matter. Maybe one of her dresses didn't fit this morning. Maybe it's the age thing. Maybe
she feels that her best years are behind her. Maybe...
Maggie: Maybe it's my marriage.
Jason: Maybe. Mike, don't ever talk to me again.
Mike: Ever?
Jason: Ever. Ever
Waiter: An excellent choice of wine.
Jason: Thank you Marcus.
Waiter: Enjoy. Isn't it fun to spend money?
Jason: I may even order soup tonight. Good idea though, you and I being out alone, don't you
think? Just a spare of the moment kind of thing. A special occasion with no special occasion. I
just wanted a chance to tell you how I truly feel about you.
Maggie: I'm happy.
Jason: And you are beautiful. Did I mention that?
Maggie: About sixteen times.
Jason: Well for the seventeenth, you are beautiful.
Maggie: Well thank you again, again.
Jason: So, what shall we start off with here?
Maggie: Well everything looks so good. Oh, I think I'll have the goose liver pate13.
Jason: Fine, ok, ok. Let's just deal with.
Maggie: What?
Jason: Goose Maggie. You said goose. I know what you are aiming at here Maggie. Come on.
Maggie: Jason, what in the world are you talking about?
Jason: What am I talking about Maggie? Pate, the goose.
Maggie: Oh lets see, stuffed chicken breast. No. Oh see lobster14 with drawn15 butter, that a
possibility.
Jason: Very smooth.
Maggie: What?
Jason: Maggie, come on. You've been on my back ever since Mike said about the gym.
Maggie: Jason, I haven't said a word.
Jason: Well you don't say a word louder than any woman I know.
Maggie: Jason!
Jason: Maggie, you just didn't use those words on purpose? Come on. Goose, breast, drawn
butter.
Maggie: Drawn butter?
Jason: That's right. Drawn butt er. If you've got something to say just say it honey.
Maggie: Honey, it's ok. I understand. I am not upset.
Jason: You're not?
Maggie: No.
Jason: Ok. To us.
Maggie: Just don't do your flirting around me.
Jason: Maggie, I wasn't flirting.
Maggie: Then what would you call it?
Jason: I don't know. But I didn't flirt3.
Maggie: Ok honey, how would you like it if I didn't flirt, like you didn't flirt?
Jason: I wouldn't mind at all.
Maggie: oh you wouldn't mind if I said to the waiter "nice buns"?
Waiter: Why thank you.
Maggie: You're welcome.
Jason: Do you think I'm walking around saying that kind of thing to women Maggie? Cos I'm
not.
Maggie: Well Jason, they are saying it to you.
Jason: Do you think it's easy walking around with a rear end like this? From this jocularity a
good time will grow.
Maggie: Fine, fine, we wont16 have a serious conversation about you middle aged17 insecurity.
Jason: I'm not middle aged.
Maggie: Oh, you plan to live to be eighty-six?
Jason: Not happily. Come on Maggie, I know men who flirt. I've seen men who flirt. I've even
had a fellow or two flirt with me, ok. And I'm telling you that what I do isn't flirting.
Maggie: Fine. If you can live with that.
Jason: If I make eye contact with a woman and I imply that maybe I would like to be intimate,
and then she, there's some intimacy18 that, uh, um, some, ...Well where was I?
Maggie: Oh Jason.
Jason: I was not flirting. See that was just noticing Maggie. I'm a doctor. She was very healthy.
Maggie: Jason, for me cant19 you just apologize?
Jason: Ok, I'm sorry. I am sorry. And as soon as I figure out what I did wrong I'll never do it again. Now let's eat.
Jason: Lets dance.
Ben: Well Carol, if mum and dad are just people, that change everything.
Carol: There's a thought there Ben.
Ben: Carol, you are not listening to me.
Carol: There's a thought there Ben.
Ben: Carol!
Carol: Ok. Of course they're people Ben. Look, these may be giant discoveries for someone
with a sloped forehead, but they don't interest me. I had those thoughts when I was six.
Ben: You mean you knew that mum and dad were human being all along and you never told
me?
Carol: Well would you have believed me?
Ben: No. So dad's just like me?
Carol: Unfortunately.
Ben: You've actually seen the magazines under his bed?
Carol: I'm going to wake Chrissy up so we can do a happy dance that we are girls.
Maggie: Goodnight Ben.
Jason: Mum and I are a little tired, so we are going to go up to bed.
Ben: Alright dad!
Jason: Well, you certainly made a spectacle of yourself tonight.
Maggie: Oh, you minded me doing the Lambada with a handsome man?
Jason: Maggie, there was no dance floor. And just to be picky about it, there was no music.
Maggie: There wasn't?
Jason: Uh hu. And for your information, the Lambada is a forbidden dance. These are the
thanks I get Maggie? I have been true to you for every second of the twenty-two years we've
been married Maggie. And I can say this to you, I've never had a serious thought, I can say
this, I have never had a serious thought about cheating on you.
Maggie: Well then let's deal with your frivolous20 thoughts.
Jason: I'm disappointed in you Maggie.
Maggie: Oh. You're disappointed in me.
Jason: Yeah, after all these years of you saying you don't mind if I exchange pleasantries with
women. Now I found out you were lying. What else have you held from me Maggie?
Maggie: Jason, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, could we please deal first with your midlife
crisis, before we deal with your insanity21?
Jason: Oh yeah. Just as long as we keep enough time open to deal with your outrageous22 behavior at that expensive restaurant.
Maggie: There were no bottoms grabbed, except when the dance called for it.
Jason: Well I didn't do anything to her.
Maggie: Oh right.
Jason: Oh Maggie, come on. Look at the subconscious23 facts here. I talked to a woman your
height, your hair color, your eye color, except little flecks24 of amber25 in hers. But what does that
tell you?
Maggie: It tells me that you were too stinking26 close to her.
Jason: No Maggie. What it says is that symbolically27 I am really flirting with you. Not only
should you not be mad, you should be honored.
Maggie: I should have listened to Oprah. You cant count on a marriage even when it has
lasted for twenty two years and four months.
Jason: Oprah didn't do a show on that.
Maggie: Her point being that a woman shouldn't trust her marriage when it's built on the
fragile psyche28 of the aging male.
Jason: Oh yeah, well what does Phil Donohue say?
Maggie: Oh Jason, what's wrong with me?
Jason: What makes you think anything's wrong with you Maggie?
Maggie: Don't I excite you anymore?
Jason: Not any more. Not any less either. Ho ho, where does he come up with these?
Maggie: Admit it Jason, you find a twenty-year-old woman with a fully12 conditioned body and
beautiful hair and eyes attractive?
Jason: Maggie sweetheart. What do I need with a beautiful woman when I've got you? Maggie,
I mean, you were so beautiful, you're not young. You're not old, I didn't mean that.
Maggie: Oh save it Jason. Don't you see what happened today was simply a reflex ion of your
subconscious need?
Jason: No sweetheart. I don't. I'll tell you what I do see. I see a woman going through middle
aged crisis for no reason what so ever.
Maggie: You really don't think I have a reason?
Jason: Come on honey. You're gorgeous. You're intelligent. You're better today than the day i
met you.
Maggie: Oh Jason.
Jason: Why are we arguing?
Maggie: I don't remember.
Jason: Good.
Maggie: Yes I do. Honey it's not your flirting. It's your attitude. It's your unrelenting sureness
that you have done nothing wrong.
Jason: Are you sure? Are you sure about that? Because what I thought.... it doesn't matter
what I thought.
Maggie: Jason, you just don't get it, do you?
Jason: Maggie, tell me what you want?
Maggie: I want you to have some guilt29.
Jason: Done.
Maggie: And some awareness30 too.
Jason: You got it Maggie.
Maggie: Jason, sometimes you are so thick. I mean whether you flirted31 or not, right or wrong,
think for a second if it might appear to me that you might have flirted. Then how would I feel?
Jason: So if you thought that nothing was something, even, even if nothing was nothing, then,
the fact that you think that nothing was something means that I hurt you. Maggie, I'm a slope
headed jerk. I feel terrible.
Maggie: Great.
Jason: You think it's great I feel terrible?
Maggie: Yes I do.
Jason: How could I be so insensitive? I am the worse person. Please forgive me.
Maggie: Honey it's ok.
Jason: How can it be ok?
Maggie: Because I just found out that your midlife crisis is worse than my midlife crisis.
Jason: You know somewhere in the world it is still Saturday morning.
Gretchen:: Your parents don't mind us taking all this food?
Mike: Oh no. Just as long as I don't touch their fiber32.
Maggie: Jason, I'll get the fiber.
Mike: Ah mum, meet Gretchen.
Gretchen: Hi.
Maggie: I feel like I already have. Damn, they are amber.
Jason: Oh, I'm starved. Oh hi.
Gretchen: Hi.
Jason: get out.
Mike: Oh, we'll see you later.
Gretchen: Nice to meet you...
Maggie: Mrs. Seaver.
Gretchen: That's funny. Before you called me up for a date, I didn't have a clue your dad was
married.
Jason: She could have asked.
quarter finals. Blonde division.
Ben: Alright!
TV: Don't touch that dial.
Ben: I ain't touching1 nothing.
Chrissy: What are you watching Ben?
Ben: Chrissy, do you have to eat your breakfast in here?

Jason: I may even order soup tonight. Good idea though, you and I being out alone, don't you
think? Just a spare of the moment kind of thing. A special occasion with no special occasion. I
just wanted a chance to tell you how I truly feel about you.
Maggie: I'm happy.
Jason: And you are beautiful. Did I mention that?
Maggie: About sixteen times.
Jason: Well for the seventeenth, you are beautiful.
Maggie: Well thank you again, again.
Jason: So, what shall we start off with here?
Maggie: Well everything looks so good. Oh, I think I'll have the goose liver pate13.
Jason: Fine, ok, ok. Let's just deal with.
Maggie: What?
Jason: Goose Maggie. You said goose. I know what you are aiming at here Maggie. Come on.
Maggie: Jason, what in the world are you talking about?
Jason: What am I talking about Maggie? Pate, the goose.
Maggie: Oh lets see, stuffed chicken breast. No. Oh see lobster14 with drawn15 butter, that a
possibility.
Jason: Very smooth.
Maggie: What?
Jason: Maggie, come on. You've been on my back ever since Mike said about the gym.
Maggie: Jason, I haven't said a word.
Jason: Well you don't say a word louder than any woman I know.
Maggie: Jason!
Jason: Maggie, you just didn't use those words on purpose? Come on. Goose, breast, drawn
butter.
Maggie: Drawn butter?
Jason: That's right. Drawn butt er. If you've got something to say just say it honey.
Maggie: Honey, it's ok. I understand. I am not upset.
Jason: You're not?
Maggie: No.
Jason: Ok. To us.
Maggie: Just don't do your flirting around me.
Jason: Maggie, I wasn't flirting.
Maggie: Then what would you call it?
Jason: I don't know. But I didn't flirt3.
Maggie: Ok honey, how would you like it if I didn't flirt, like you didn't flirt?
Jason: I wouldn't mind at all.
Maggie: oh you wouldn't mind if I said to the waiter "nice buns"?
Waiter: Why thank you.
Maggie: You're welcome.
Jason: Do you think I'm walking around saying that kind of thing to women Maggie? Cos I'm
not.
Maggie: Well Jason, they are saying it to you.
Jason: Do you think it's easy walking around with a rear end like this? From this jocularity a
good time will grow.
Maggie: Fine, fine, we wont16 have a serious conversation about you middle aged17 insecurity.
Jason: I'm not middle aged.
Maggie: Oh, you plan to live to be eighty-six?
Jason: Not happily. Come on Maggie, I know men who flirt. I've seen men who flirt. I've even
had a fellow or two flirt with me, ok. And I'm telling you that what I do isn't flirting.
Maggie: Fine. If you can live with that.
Jason: If I make eye contact with a woman and I imply that maybe I would like to be intimate,
and then she, there's some intimacy18 that, uh, um, some, ...Well where was I?
Maggie: Oh Jason.
Jason: I was not flirting. See that was just noticing Maggie. I'm a doctor. She was very healthy.
Maggie: Jason, for me cant19 you just apologize?
Jason: Ok, I'm sorry. I am sorry. And as soon as I figure out what I did wrong I'll never do it again. Now let's eat.
Jason: Lets dance.
Ben: Well Carol, if mum and dad are just people, that change everything.
Carol: There's a thought there Ben.
Ben: Carol, you are not listening to me.
Carol: There's a thought there Ben.
Ben: Carol!
Carol: Ok. Of course they're people Ben. Look, these may be giant discoveries for someone
with a sloped forehead, but they don't interest me. I had those thoughts when I was six.
Ben: You mean you knew that mum and dad were human being all along and you never told
me?
Carol: Well would you have believed me?
Ben: No. So dad's just like me?
Carol: Unfortunately.
Ben: You've actually seen the magazines under his bed?
Carol: I'm going to wake Chrissy up so we can do a happy dance that we are girls.
Maggie: Goodnight Ben.
Jason: Mum and I are a little tired, so we are going to go up to bed.
Ben: Alright dad!
Jason: Well, you certainly made a spectacle of yourself tonight.
Maggie: Oh, you minded me doing the Lambada with a handsome man?
Jason: Maggie, there was no dance floor. And just to be picky about it, there was no music.
Maggie: There wasn't?
Jason: Uh hu. And for your information, the Lambada is a forbidden dance. These are the
thanks I get Maggie? I have been true to you for every second of the twenty-two years we've
been married Maggie. And I can say this to you, I've never had a serious thought, I can say
this, I have never had a serious thought about cheating on you.
Maggie: Well then let's deal with your frivolous20 thoughts.
Jason: I'm disappointed in you Maggie.
Maggie: Oh. You're disappointed in me.
Jason: Yeah, after all these years of you saying you don't mind if I exchange pleasantries with
women. Now I found out you were lying. What else have you held from me Maggie?
Maggie: Jason, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, could we please deal first with your midlife
crisis, before we deal with your insanity21?
Jason: Oh yeah. Just as long as we keep enough time open to deal with your outrageous22 behavior at that expensive restaurant.
Maggie: There were no bottoms grabbed, except when the dance called for it.
Jason: Well I didn't do anything to her.
Maggie: Oh right.
Jason: Oh Maggie, come on. Look at the subconscious23 facts here. I talked to a woman your
height, your hair color, your eye color, except little flecks24 of amber25 in hers. But what does that
tell you?
Maggie: It tells me that you were too stinking26 close to her.
Jason: No Maggie. What it says is that symbolically27 I am really flirting with you. Not only
should you not be mad, you should be honored.
Maggie: I should have listened to Oprah. You cant count on a marriage even when it has
lasted for twenty two years and four months.
Jason: Oprah didn't do a show on that.
Maggie: Her point being that a woman shouldn't trust her marriage when it's built on the
fragile psyche28 of the aging male.
Jason: Oh yeah, well what does Phil Donohue say?
Maggie: Oh Jason, what's wrong with me?
Jason: What makes you think anything's wrong with you Maggie?
Maggie: Don't I excite you anymore?
Jason: Not any more. Not any less either. Ho ho, where does he come up with these?
Maggie: Admit it Jason, you find a twenty-year-old woman with a fully12 conditioned body and
beautiful hair and eyes attractive?
Jason: Maggie sweetheart. What do I need with a beautiful woman when I've got you? Maggie,
I mean, you were so beautiful, you're not young. You're not old, I didn't mean that.
Maggie: Oh save it Jason. Don't you see what happened today was simply a reflex ion of your
subconscious need?
Jason: No sweetheart. I don't. I'll tell you what I do see. I see a woman going through middle
aged crisis for no reason what so ever.
Maggie: You really don't think I have a reason?
Jason: Come on honey. You're gorgeous. You're intelligent. You're better today than the day i
met you.
Maggie: Oh Jason.
Jason: Why are we arguing?
Maggie: I don't remember.
Jason: Good.
Maggie: Yes I do. Honey it's not your flirting. It's your attitude. It's your unrelenting sureness
that you have done nothing wrong.
Jason: Are you sure? Are you sure about that? Because what I thought.... it doesn't matter
what I thought.
Maggie: Jason, you just don't get it, do you?
Jason: Maggie, tell me what you want?
Maggie: I want you to have some guilt29.
Jason: Done.
Maggie: And some awareness30 too.
Jason: You got it Maggie.
Maggie: Jason, sometimes you are so thick. I mean whether you flirted31 or not, right or wrong,
think for a second if it might appear to me that you might have flirted. Then how would I feel?
Jason: So if you thought that nothing was something, even, even if nothing was nothing, then,
the fact that you think that nothing was something means that I hurt you. Maggie, I'm a slope
headed jerk. I feel terrible.
Maggie: Great.
Jason: You think it's great I feel terrible?
Maggie: Yes I do.
Jason: How could I be so insensitive? I am the worse person. Please forgive me.
Maggie: Honey it's ok.
Jason: How can it be ok?
Maggie: Because I just found out that your midlife crisis is worse than my midlife crisis.
Jason: You know somewhere in the world it is still Saturday morning.
Gretchen:: Your parents don't mind us taking all this food?
Mike: Oh no. Just as long as I don't touch their fiber32.
Maggie: Jason, I'll get the fiber.
Mike: Ah mum, meet Gretchen.
Gretchen: Hi.
Maggie: I feel like I already have. Damn, they are amber.
Jason: Oh, I'm starved. Oh hi.
Gretchen: Hi.
Jason: get out.
Mike: Oh, we'll see you later.
Gretchen: Nice to meet you...
Maggie: Mrs. Seaver.
Gretchen: That's funny. Before you called me up for a date, I didn't have a clue your dad was
married.
Jason: She could have asked.
