Everyone thought my pops

was the nicest guy in Orlando.

But he had a guilty pleasure.

He loved gangster movies...

immigrants fighting for their piece of the American dream.

Eh, so many bullets.

And deep down, he was the same way.

Because when it came to providing for his family,

he would do whatever it took.

Aah! Whoa!

But my shoe!

- Leave it! - Oh, no!

Let me tell you something about that shoe!

Nordstroms hardly ever has a sale.

And one time, by the grace of God...

- No time for a speech! - Ooh! Aah! No!

My shoe! Aah!

S01E07 Showdown at the Golden Saddle

sync and corrected by ninh www.addic7ed.com

My dad was excited to show us

the newest promotion for his restaurant.

My mom, on the other hand, was less enthused.

It's a sunny day in Orlando,

you're driving down the street...

No, you're driving.

Well, I'm setting the scene, building suspense

for when you guys see the restaurant billboard.

- Play along. - "Play"? I don't like to play.

Well, you don't, but you are not you.

No, you are a beefy lake-house owner

in town for the sailing convention,

and you are hungry.

No, I'm not. I just had grapes.

Damn it!

Mom, Eddie's rapping at my always-there bear.

Did they give you that pin for narc-ing?

No, that's tattle-turtle.

This is for the school's best attendance record.

Why is this billboard so far away?

You could have put it here.

Or here. Or here.

Well, those big companies

can afford to put billboards anywhere.

I have to be more strategic.

See?

Now, this is the best billboard spot in all of Orlando.

It's the longest red light,

there's no tall buildings to block the view,

and there's a homeless man who's always on the corner,

reminding drivers that they're hungry.

Is that a bird in his pocket?

Yes. It's dead.

So, naturally, you divert your eyes away from him,

you turn your head, and you look up to see...

Whoa, cool! Did you really hold up that cow?!

Yeah, I did.

It was heavy, too. He had just had lunch.

Meanwhile, I had my own problems,

but they weren't at school.

As tough as school was,

it was a cakewalk compared to the bus.

- Got ya! - Oh-oh! No fair!

The bus was the only part of the day

without adult supervision.

So me and the other sixth graders

were left to fend for ourselves.

If you wanted to survive,

you had to stay up front and pretend to sleep.

If you didn't, things could get ugly.

I just glad I got to keep ol' Bess here.

My teachers usually like to keep my projects,

but that's not fair to my parents.

They fund my creations...

Oh, Bess!

Fool.

Better him than us.

Sure, the driver was there,

but he wasn't paid enough to care.

Lucky hands.

Lucky hands.

The only bright spot on the daily hell ride

was my neighbor Nicole.

She was as tough as a stale tootsie roll,

and I loved it.

Hey.

What are you looking at?

I'll get this to his mother.

One bloomin' onion.

Uh, Mitch, I think you meant to say

booming onion.

"Blooming onion" is the intellectual property

of another, less-good restaurant, okay?

Right.

Like they have potato skins,

but we have tomato skins.

Nope. No, no.

No, none of your ideas...

no tomato skins, no jalapeno toppers,

and no buffalo things.

You know, I don't have to take this.

I get job offers all the time from other restaurants.

There's heat on Mitch. Oh, yeah.

Louis, you were right about the billboard.

I told you. The place has been packed all day.

People have been coming up to me and talking to me about it.

Hmm. One lady even let me cut in front of her in line

at the grocery store.

Wow, you usually get into fights at the grocery store.

I know!

And we have been invited

to the chamber of commerce charity-fundraising event.

Hmm.

It's at a country club!

Why are you so excited about a country club?

Because of "Caddyshack"!

It's my favorite movie... set in a country club.

I've always wanted to go to one. Hmm.

"Spaulding, get your foot off the boat!"

It's so much yelling. It's so good.

Tess is not with Nicole today.

This is my chance to sit next to her.

Shut up. You'll get us all killed.

I need to show her

that I'm not just a little kid that naps on the bus,

and I'm gonna do it with this.

I'm holding up Ice Cube's "Predator" album.

"Parental advisory."

Once she gets I listen to badass music, she'll know I'm down.

Feel this, girl.

Damn, you're a grown-ass man.

Yeah.

Hey, did you just fall asleep for real?

You cannot fall asleep for real.

Shut up.

I'm going back there.

I can't watch this.

How did it go?

They took my pants and threw it out the window.

It took me forever

to get home from school that day without my pants,

so I had a lot of time to think.

If I was gonna share headphones with Nicole,

it wasn't gonna happen on the bus.

I needed one-on-one time with her.

Thanks. See you in carpool tomorrow, Mrs. Wilson.

Carpool.

Who said that? Is someone in there?

No.

A bush kid!

Which one says I am rich enough to be invited

but not rich enough that you could ask me to donate money?

I think the one with the Tokyo Disney on the label.

Mom, I don't want to ride the bus anymore.

I want to carpool, and here's 50 reasons why I...

- Okay. - Okay?!

Well, what can I say, you caught me in a charitable mood.

But not too charitable.

Yes, girl. Yes.

Great!

Oh, hey.

Maybe your stepdaughter Nicole would like to join?

Sure.

I'll ask Marvin, and then he'll ask her,

and she'll tell him what her answer is.

It's like the way we communicate at dinner.

Takes a long time to get the salt.

Yes!

That seat's taken. Get in the back.

Are you saving that seat for your attitude?

My bus friends already miss me,

so they dropped off this breakfast burrito.

So sweet.

Get in the back.

Dad, why are you coming?

Oh. I want to see the billboard glistening in the morning dew.

Okay, but don't do anything embarrassing in front of Nicole.

Ooh!

Aah-choo-NY!

Oh. Come on.

What? That's how I sneeze.

- Okay, get in. Let's go. - But we don't have Nicole yet!

Oh, she's not coming.

Honey said Nicole told Marvin that she's happy on the bus.

But don't worry. Your best friend, Mark, is here.

Hi!

Who's that?

I don't even know who he is!

You don't recognize me because we always have our eyes closed,

but I ride the bus with you.

So happy not to have to do that anymore.

Get in.

Mark, have you ever seen a billboard?

Picture yourself a hungry accountant

who's just taken his kids to Disney world. Mm-hmm.

And... the homeless man with the dead bird

cues us to turn our heads, look up to the sky,

and... aah!

Whoa!

There's chorizo in here!

Those guys.

Folks, I promise,

we'll get someone to clean it as soon as we can.

Nobody tried to stop them?!

Everyone just stood around

and watched my husband's face get milked on?

Nobody's gonna believe I let a cow do that to me, right?

I wouldn't worry.

Probably just random kids in the area.

This is anatomically impossible.

Everybody know you got to squeeze the teat

to produce the milk.

I just wish it didn't look like I was enjoying it so much.

Why won't they hurry up?

Calm your panties.

You calm your panties! I'm gonna be marked absent!

And they'll take away my always-there bear!

All because of your stupid carpool.

Hey, I hate it, too.

Guys, come on. don't say that about the carpool.

I'm going back to the bus.

It may be hell, but at least I get to see Nicole.

Well, you'll also get to see her tonight.

- What? - I heard mom invite her over

after she said no to the carpool.

Why does everyone hate this?

Why won't they hurry up?!

Oh, hey, girl.

Didn't know you were coming over tonight.

Caught me strengthening my hands.

Wow.

Everything okay?

Oh, yeah. We're gonna have a great time.

Bye, sweetie. Have fun babysitting.

"Babysitting"?

Honey, I'm glad that you did not wear a yellow dress

because I am wearing a yellow dress.

Well, you did call me and say not to wear yellow...

okay, I will see you at the country club. Bye.

Bye.

Nicole, come in.

Um...

...is that old lady self-sufficient?

Because my parents showed me "Cocoon" when I was little,

and I just can't.

Oh, she's fine.

She'll fight you for dominance and then fall asleep.

Okay.

Babysitting? Why can't grandma watch us?

Because last time, she charged me $100 an hour.

_

All right, we've got to get going.

Nicole, some ground rules... no scary movies.

If you watch "Jurassic Park,"

fast-forward when the water glass trembles.

Eddie doesn't like it

when the T. Rex gives the jeep the big eye.

He also has gentle bowels, so only bland foods.

What is happening?

They should all be in bed by 9:00, and if anyone feels warm,

there's a thermometer and flintstones chewables.

Orange, orange, grape.

And, Nicole, I missed school this morning,

so they took away my always-there bear,

and I feel...

- Okay, they're all yours! - Open bar ends at 7:00, bye!

Thank you!

Look at us... all dressed up, going to a country club.

"Hey, everybody, we're all gonna get laid!"

That's also a line from "Caddyshack."

Ah.

This is all because of you, Louis.

When we first moved down here and you opened the restaurant,

everybody doubted you, including me. Hmm.

But you saw something that no one else did.

You are a visionary.

Thank you. That's nice to hear.

You know, when I first move us down here...

What the hell?!

"Thief"?

As in sneaky!

They are calling us sneaky asians!

Random kids, my ass... we are being targeted!

What my mom didn't know was that the billboard was right...

my dad was sneaky.

Cattleman's Ranch was a total knockoff of Golden Saddle.

And that's what you get

when you buy a Golden Saddle franchise.

It's all covered in this confidential operations manual.

He rolled into town and jacked their manual

because, like I said, he would do whatever it took.

It's a hate crime.

It's a hate crime! I mean, it's obvious!

Probably just random kids again.

No! If it was random kids, they would have hit the Hoagie King!

It paints itself, really.

You know, when sheryl and I started angel smile wish,

we never thought we'd touch so many tiny hearts.

So, please, give generously.

Mm-hmm. Hmm.

Is this charity for children or dogs?

You know, I thought it was for the environment.

Okay, back to my thing.

So, like I was saying, it's a hate crime.

She's jumping to conclusions.

Oh, how beautiful is this butter?

Seashells!

I think I can hear the ocean.

You're starting early.

You know, some people just can't stand to see minorities succeed.

It's Mike Tyson all over again.

He's doing great, he's killing it,

and then they make him marry the actress from "Boomerang,"

and bam!... Champ is broke.

Halle Berry?

No, the sexy, mean one with the pretty toes.

Well, you know, our councilman is sitting right over there.

You should tell him that this happened.

That's a good idea.

He should know about a hate crime happening in his district.

Uh, Jessica, stop!

What is wrong with you?

I'm just gonna tell our councilman.

I need to show you something.

I don't believe this.

This is exactly our restaurant.

They copied us.

No, Jessica. I copied them.

Sorry about before.

I didn't know my mom had hired someone to co-babysit with me.

But I'm happy to have the help. These two are handfuls.

But it goes so fast. I try to cherish it.

You know what goes fast? Me.

I can run to the end of the street in eight seconds.

Time me.

Wear a jacket!

How old are you?

Old enough to read this parental-advisory sticker

and ignore it.

Want to listen?

- Hello? - Hey, girl.

Oh, hey. Uh, hold on.

Let me go in the other room.

It's this guy I know.

Yo, it's me.

The Smiths' German Shepherd took a run at me.

Don't tell mom. She'll have him put down.

I don't understand.

This was your big dream?

To move down here and copy this place?

No, my original plan was to buy a Golden Saddle franchise.

And that's what you get

when you buy a Golden Saddle franchise.

It's all covered in this confidential operations manual.

All that's left now is to sign the paperwork

and collect your $50,000 franchise fee.

Oh! And to size you for your belt buckles!

- Oh. - You want your belt buckles, mm!

Uh, great.

I'll give you $10,000 up front

and put the rest on a payment plan.

No, no. I need the whole amount right now.

The whole amount?

Well, who has that kind of money?

I guess they do.

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

Uh... I have to pee.

Yeah!

Go pee. I'm not gonna stop you from peeing.

This is America. You can pee if you want.

I'll go pee.

Yeah. Take that book with you. It's good reading material. Okay.

It is good reading material.

I like that guy.

And then I jumped out the bathroom window.

I didn't have the money,

but I still had my dream of a better life for our family.

So I took what I did have,

and I opened a steakhouse of my own.

Oh, why didn't you tell me?

Because I was ashamed.

I wanted you to think I was a visionary.

Louis... What you did was smart.

Just like you were smart

to move down here and open up your own restaurant

and pick the perfect billboard location.

Hmm.

You're a good businessman.

And I would choose a good businessman over a visionary

any day of the week.

Besides, you made it your own.

You added a salad bar,

you have "wanted" posters for people who bounce checks,

and the bears aren't even the same color.

Thank you!

And it's not like Golden Saddle owns the idea of a steakhouse.

- They don't. - Mnh-mnh.

It's like, uh, sizzler's just a cheaper knockoff of Black Angus.

- Mm-hmm. - And Black Angus

is just a cheaper knockoff of Ruth's Chris!

And they are all just chasing that Morton's ring.

I see you got my message.

Hello, thief.

Mrs. Thief.

Finnegan. This is Jessica, my wife.

Oh, well, well, well.

Look who has an Asian fetish, too.

I guess Louis copies everything I do.

What's your problem?

Your restaurant's busy. You own 10 franchises.

You're doing great.

And you are doing well, which I don't like.

You're just upset

because Louis didn't pay your ridiculous franchise fee.

He is a smarter businessman than you are.

Oh, you think so? Then how come I stole his favorite employee?

Mitchell!

Mitch?

Oh. Uh, sorry, guys.

How could you do this? We were a family.

He offered to double my salary.

But, I mean, if you guys want to do that...

Goodbye forever, Mitch.

If you think stealing our employee

and vandalizing our billboard

is gonna make us back down, you are wrong.

Yeah, you better watch out

because "Scarface" and "Miller's Crossing"

are coming at ya.

Wait. Is that...

is that what you two guys call each other?

There's nothing I hate more

than a couple of lousy, no-good cinephiles.

I made myself a new pin.

"Usually-there bear."

I hate it.

Didn't your parents say you have a weak stomach or something?

Yeah, "week,"

as in I can eat this stuff for seven days straight.

Uh, are you okay?

Don't come in here!

Were you running the shower?

I can't talk to you right now, please!

Now, where were we?

Nope.

Sure, my dad would do whatever it took,

but the tough guy in my family had always been moms.

Great idea, Jessica. Mm.

You don't think it's too clever, do you?

I want them to get it.

Hmm.

I guess this wasn't the country-club night you imagined.

Are you kidding? We stuck it to a rich guy.

It's just like "Caddyshack."

Run, Jessica! Run!

I am so sorry we're late.

I know we said we'd be home earlier.

What happened?

Did the Smiths' dog go after you, too?

- Yes. - That dog needs to be put down.

Mom, is that you?

Are you home?! Don't say anything to her!

Well, E-Eddie's been in the bathroom with some stomach issues.

Oh, it's probably because he likes you.

Mom!

It sounds like you're talking to her!

Don't talk to her, okay?

Oh. That's why he asked to borrow my old spice. Oh.

Nantucket wind.

Well, I'm gonna head.

Okay, well, thank you for watching the boys. Hmm.

Oh, and tell Eddie, um, I listened to this.

It's good. I'm keeping it.

Okay.

There you go.

Mom, did she leave?

Has she left? Can you come in here, please?

Hey.

Hey.

Yes.
