AlanCharlie, don't you see what's happening to you?
Nothing's happening, except that I offered to buy a policewoman a $500 martini!

All right. Then something good came of this.

AlanCharlie, don't you see what's happening to you?
Nothing's happening, except that I offered to buy a policewoman a $500 martini!
AlanWell, then, I guess there's no point in my talking to you anymore.
All right. Then something good came of this.
AlanYou're gonna get married?
Yep. Settle down, have a couple of kids, and ship the penis up to Cooperstown.
AlanCooperstown?
It is my bat.
AlanWell, sounds like you've got everything figured out.
You don't ever figure this stuff out, Alan. You just take little baby steps on a lifelong path to becoming a better man.
AlanUh-huh. How many pain pills have you taken?
[Alan and Charlie are in the ladies' restroom]
What are you doing?
AlanI'm here, I figure, what the hell?
Just remember to put the seat back down.
AlanIt's a ladies' room. Why do they even go up?
I don't know. It's a bigger target for broads who want to puke their dinner.
[Charlie enters the house late at night. Alan is sitting in the living room.]
AlanYou were with her [Courtney], weren't you?
What are you, my wife?
AlanNo, I'm the wedding planner.
[Evelyn finds Teddy lying dead on Charlie's bed]
You son of a bitch.
AlanSo you weren't the one who was...
Of course not. I already married the man! I just can't believe he'd cheat on me on our wedding day!
Excuse me, my father is lying here dead!
With his pants around his ankles and lipstick on his hoo-hoo.
I'll bet you're sorry you took all that LSD before you had him [Jake].
AlanI never took any LSD!
You might want to start telling people you did.
Jake [on The Taming of the Shrew]: Dad, this is the wrong book.
AlanWhat are you talking about?
It's in some sort of foreign language.
AlanIt's Elizabethan.
Well, can we get one in English?
AlanWalk.
You're angry and resentful. But what you need to understand is that resentment is the mortar that holds the bricks of loneliness together in a wall of alienation and despair. Chapter 3, "Knocking Down the Wall".
AlanBite me. That's Chapter 1 in my forthcoming book entitled, Bite Me. Chapter 2 is called "Kiss My Pale White Ass".
AlanYou're supposed to be finishing your report.
I know, but I can't find the book.
AlanYou're kidding! We-- we just bought it.
What can I say, Dad? It's a big house and a little book.
AlanFind... the book.
I'm really tired.
AlanFind... the book!
Just saying it won't make it happen.
[Charlie walks into the house]
AlanFIND... THE... BOOK!
Jake [running]: Heads up! He's losing it.
AlanI should have put frosting on the damn book! He's never lost anything with frosting on it!
AlanYou're writing a report on The Taming of the Shrew, not The Voyages of Cap'n Crunch!
Too bad. I could write the crap out of that.
AlanOK... [sighs] I'm not fooling around here. You are gonna finish this damn book and write the damn report, and you're gonna hand it in on Monday, spell-checked, formatted, and on freakin' time!
I have my doubts, Dad.
AlanWhy aren't you studying for your algebra final?
'Cause I don't have to.
AlanYou don't have to study algebra.
Nope. All I gotta do is get a 67 to pass the course, and then it's adiós seventh grade, arrivederci eighth.
AlanOK, we can cross "UN interpreter" off the job list...
Look at him. He can type eighty words a minute with his thumb, but he can't pee without hitting the shower curtain.
AlanFortunately, typing is a job skill and peeing is not.
Jake [while text messaging]: Oh, dude, WTF?
[after Alan sings "Cat's in the Cradle" while washing dishes]
It's not funny.
AlanWell, maybe not funny "ha-ha", but certainly funny "hee-hee".
That boy was nothing like me.
AlanWell, he doesn't have ear hair and whiskey breath, but I'm guessing he'll grow into that.
Alan, I have always conducted my sex life according to three simple principles. One: If at all possible, ladies first. Two: It's easier to be forgiven than ask permission. And third and most important: the ten seconds it takes to put on a condom beats the hell out of the ten years you have to pretend to like soccer.
AlanExcept when they don't work.
Stupid tiny disclaimer on the side of the box. They should put it in big letters right on the reservoir tip. "Do you feel lucky, dumbass?"
[Jake is outdoors trying to hold a "Condos For Sale" sign]
AlanThanks, Mom. Th-- this is a perfect first job for him.
First job? I think you're looking at the birth of a career.
I was gonna have him put up fliers, but I didn't trust him with a staple gun.
AlanHow much are you paying him?
Obviously, too much. Look at him! [Jake is picking his nose] For the record, I promised him $20 and a Playboy magazine.
AlanPlayboy?
Don't worry. I'll Magic Marker over the ta-tas and hoo-hoos.
Oh, that's disturbing on so many levels.
[An ice cream truck turns the corner on which Jake is located. He drops the sign and runs after it.]
