Well, I don't know about his father, but I've tried to share some of my interests with him [Jake].
AlanUnfortunately, he's a little young to drink in the dark and bitch about men.
You like classic rock, right?
Right.
OK, well, pick a band.
How about Queen?
AlanOh, good. I was afraid he was gonna pick something gay.
Let me give you an example. Jake's at a party. All the boys are on one side of the room, all the girls are on the other. What's he do?
AlanUm...
You see? You see? Right there. That "Um..." is the battle cry of the chronic masturbator.
AlanDefine "chronic".
Face it Alan. What can you bring to the table other than a lifetime of failure with women?
AlanIt's not a lifetime yet!
I, on the other hand have a wealth of experience.
AlanHe's [Jake's] twelve! He doesn't need to know how to choreograph a three-way!
I'm buying the little wiseass a $75 haircut, and he's taking shots at me?!
AlanYou said it yourself: He has to find his own look.
Yeah, well, let him find it on somebody else's MasterCard!
AlanCome on, look at his point of view.
What's his point of view?
AlanWell, put overalls on you, and you do look kind of like the Big Boy. Stand like this for me: [poses like a Big Boy statue]
AlanNevertheless, I am Jake's father, and I believe that childhood should be a time of innocence.
I agree, childhood should be a time of innocence. And Bambi's mother shouldn't die, and lap dances should be complementary after the fifth cocktail, but that's not the world we live in. This party tonight is the initial round in a lifelong process of sexual elimination.
AlanOh, really?
Think of it as musical chairs, but when the music stops, the guys who have a clue are sitting on a woman instead of a chair. The guys who have no clue? They'll spend their teenage years-- well, I certainly don't need to tell Dungeon Master Alan.
AlanCharlie, be serious. I remember how nervous I was about my first boy-girl party.
Oh yeah, that was in college, wasn't it?"
Oh, yeah, she [Mia] wants us to come see her dance next weekend.
It [the newspaper] says she's performing this weekend.
Oh, I guess she called last weekend.
You're telling me this now?!
AlanCharlie, Charlie, calm down.
How many things does the kid have to handle? Eat, poop, tell me who called!
She said some guy named Will has tickets.
Charlie [sighs]: Who's Will?
I don't know. She said he'd call.
Will's gonna call?
AlanYou mean the tickets are at will call?
I don't know, maybe.
Dear God, he's a doorstop that eats!
AlanSo, so why did Mia come to you [for sperm]?
Well, you know, her biological clock is ticking. Most of the guys she meets are ballet dancers, so, you know, slim pickings there. And she doesn't want to wait for Mr. Right to come along.
AlanWhich pretty much leaves you.
Yep, I'm good genetic material, you know? Easy on the eyes, and she wants to raise the kid alone which fits nicely into my lifestyle.
AlanCharlie, drinking, gambling and casual sex is not a lifestyle.
[Charlie is in a sperm bank donor room]
AlanWell, I don't know if this will help, but sometimes when I was married, I used to pretend that I was having sex with a-- a completely different woman.
Oh, thanks. The image of you bumping uglies with your ex-wife should really move things along!
Did she [Rose] just use the front door?
Alan [staring in disbelief]: Uh-huh.
She never used the front door before.
Alan [still staring in disbelief]: Uh-uh. What happened out there?
Well, I, I, I told her I was going to marry Mia and I think I could actually see her medication stop working.
AlanWhat do you think she's gonna do?
The question isn't what, it's when, and how I'm gonna enjoy my honeymoon with my testicles glued to my ass crack.
AlanI just found my old wedding folder, and guess what was in it.
The claim check for your manhood?
AlanAs I was saying, it's all here, everything you could possibly need for your big day, from paper samples for your announcements, to selected verses of romantic poetry well suited for wedding vows.
And you wonder why people think you're gay?
Do you believe your future mother-in-law? Shows up at a four-star restaurant wearing a track suit with the word "juicy" stretched across her half-acre ass.
I can read, Mom.
Can we go back? I forgot my doggie bag.
We can never go back, Jake.
AlanOh, come on, it's not the end of the world.
Easy for you to say. You're not marrying into The Addams Family.
Oh, like you were a prize. Slipping a prenuptial agreement into my fiancée's menu?
I am just trying to protect you from being wiped out by a vindictive ex-wife who will use your hard-earned money to finance a frivolous life of partying and shopping and unnecessary plastic surgery.
Um, Mom...?
Every one of my surgeries was necessary! And if I had signed a prenup, you would never have gone to music camp, and Alan would have an overbite you could use to open a can of Pennzoil!
I didn't know Mia's last name was Addams.
[Alan and Kandi are getting married, and Charlie and Mia have just broken up because Mia wants Alan and Jake to move out.]
I don't freakin' believe it.
AlanCheer up, Charlie. You're finally getting what you always wanted. I'm moving out of your house!
I don't freakin' believe it!
Alan[about Charlie's wedding night] Take my advice; tell her you love her, give her a big kiss, and try to fall asleep with your ass pointing towards an open window!
You, sir, have the heart of a poet.
AlanI am merely the voice of smelly experience.
