♪♪

All done.

Perfect!

Now I'm ready for
"Crazy Hair Day" at school.

What about you,
Franklin?

No one messes with
my hair, man.

I was just doing
the 10-year update on our will,

and I discovered my parents
are still the kids' guardians

if anything happens
to us.

Why did we ever
choose them?

Well, that's when we thought
they were good people,

before we discovered that
my dad had a secret family

for the last 40 years.

[ Laughs ]
Oh, man, that was hilarious!

Best Turkey Day ever.

Obviously deeply painful
for you.

Taylor doesn't need a guardian
anymore.

Oliver's almost 18, but we still
need one for Anna-Kat.

So I was thinking that we each
make a list --

Unh-unh.
Leave me out of this.

That is your area.

What are you
talking about?

Wills and legal guardians
are your area.

Also, paperwork, telling
the kids when a pet dies,

and doom and gloom.

The world's
an unpredictable place.

That's why people have
insurance.

And 14 cases of baked beans
in the garage.

You laugh,
but when society collapses,

baked beans will be
the currency.

That's why
this is your area.

You wake up
in the middle of the night

worried about dying
in a plane crash.

If I wake up
in the middle of the night,

I turn on the TV and watch
"Indian Matchmaking."

Feels like I have
all the terrible areas.

What are yours?

♪♪

Hey,
all you real mothers.

Today I am showing my husband
all the sucky things

that fall under my area
as a mother.

First up,
"Refrigerator Smell Police."

[ Sniffs] Ohh!

Still got another week
in it.

Plus, extra probiotics.

♪♪

I don't know about
you mommies,

but I have got a whole system
for batteries.

When the TV remote
loses its oomph,

I put fresh batteries in

and shuffle the weak batteries
down the line.

It goes kids' toys,
then junk-drawer flashlight,

then smoke detectors.

So our smoke detectors
aren't working?

Relax, it's a rental.

But your family
isn't a rental.

Oh, if only, right?

This is my least favorite

refereeing these two.

He started it!

What have you
everstarted,

besides the slow death of
my brain cells when you talk?

Hey, instead of always
turning on each other,

you are goingto

As a matter of fact,
you are going to learn

what it means
to support family

by hanging your father's
campaign signs around town.

Aw, honey, thank you --

Because he's running for City
Council for some dumbass reason.

A little premature with
my gratitude. That's on me.

How much trouble will we get in
if, like, say,

you found these in a trash can
two blocks away?

Hypothetically
speaking.

Oh, great job, genius.
Now we can't do that.

They don't know that.
I said "hypothetically."

I can't believe you,
Taylor.

Geez, Mom, fine.

We won't put them
in the trash cans.

No, not that.

You actually used the word
"hypothetically" correctly.

Hey, big guy!

Looks like you're really
chewing on something.

Franklin [sighs] shouldn't
you be with Anna-Kat?

I needed a little break
from the old ball and chain.

You know how it is.

Plus, she's playing cards
with her grandma.

As Peter Frampton once said
to me on a transatlantic flight,

let's see 'em.

Oh, so you have nothing.
I have a flush.

I win.

Well, you told me
to go all-in!

That was
my whole allowance.

You still have Christmas money,
don't you?

Let's play again.

So, what's going on?

I'm just trying to figure out
if something were to happen

to Katie and me,
who would take care of...

Luthor.
[ Whines ]

[ Sighs ] Life, death,

You're dealing with

great candidates.

What about Kathryn?

Would you like
a little treat?

Mm-mm-mmm.

Yeah, just to
take the edge off.

There you go.
Good boy.

I guess it is
just until college.

Luthor's
going to college?

Oh, he's not gonna be
a student or anything.

He's just auditing
some classes.

Oh,
that makes more sense.

I don't want no big-gum baby.

they will definitely

Maybe just something
with a "K."

Athletic.

And you're very pretty.

Aw. You can thank my grandmother
for that.

Oh, you got her genes.

No, I got her money.

When she died, I used it
to spruce myself up.

I did my lips, nose,
boobs, butt, tummy.

Even got my webbed feet
taken care of.

It must be nice
to finally wear flip-flops.

Totally.

And I know Grandma will

this chapter.

That's your book safe where
you keep your Krackel bars.

Mm.

We need to
talk about this.

I can't.
Why?

Because thinking about
who Anna-Kat will go to

means thinking about my baby
being raised by someone else,

about her growing up
without a mom and dad.

It's too painful.

It upsets me, too,

but that doesn't mean we don't
have to deal with it.

You ignored
that $60 parking ticket.

Now it's like $800.Oh, damn.

I really should pay that.

Eh, I'll do it later.

our only option is Kathryn.

Before I even think
of signing off,
