JAMES: Da-da-da-da! Huzzah!
We have made it home!

Take off your shoes
and get ye butts to bed.

ASTRID: If you’re not careful,
you can drop

a lot of money on a night out
with the kids.

Wish I could have got
that mace.

It’s not Christmas, Lancelot.

JAMES: Kids are expensive
and sometimes ungrateful.

It’s not fair,
Daddy caught the rose.

- I told you you could have it.
- I wanted to catch it.

Okay, let’s get back to
the "butts in the bed" stuff.

- Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go.
- Come on, guys.

ASTRID: You’re already
throwing money

all over the place just to meet
everyone’s basic needs.

JAMES: Yeah, and then
there are kids expensive needs

which are actually wants,

like sugar, entertainment,
and, you know, fun times.

ASTRID: Are they worth it?
Of course.

How about some "thank-yous?"
- BOTH: Thank you.

- Anytime. Never again.
JAMES: But can you afford it?

- It’s a school night.
So go brush your teeth.

JAMES: Chances are no.

They really did have
a great time.

I’m sorry you missed most of it.

Bringing Andrew was absurd.

I brought you
a baby dragon to go.

- It’s chicken, FYI.
- This is an expensive night.

Yeah, you gotta go
all out sometimes.

We need to watch it, we’ve had
takeout a few times this month

and then paying for the kid’s
lessons and new summer clothes.

We have spoiled them rotten.

Stop being medieval.
It’s gross.

I get paid on Monday.

Henceforth, we shall quit it
with the spending.

[humming]

You’re just jealous.

Not everyone can be
the fairest in the land.

ASTRID: Stop it!

ENNIS: I think you’ve done
fantastic work,

and I’m gonna go get
some lunch.

Hey, Soup-er fan!
Come on, let’s get our

[elongating the "S"]
slurp on.

I’m sorry?

Come on, it’s lunchtime.
Let’s go to Soup-Gasm.

I can’t do Soup-Gasm today.

Me and Astrid took the kids
out for a big night last night.

We spent a lot of money,
and so therefore,

I can’t spend more money
on stuff I don’t need.

- Like food.
- I have food, you know. Tuna...

Oh, James.
This is...

I know it’s--
Well, don’t do that.

James, you work hard
to make a good living,

I mean, it’s not that good.
I know your take home,

but that’s all the more reason
to treat yourself.

- I do deserve a treat.
- Yeah.

And Spicy Thai Tomato
is the special today.

But, Astrid and I are really
sticking to a budget,

because every month
we go over a little bit.

- And even if it’s like $5--
- Stop. Stop.

Stop, stop, stop, stop!
It’s too depressing.

- Well, it’s just soup, man.

Look, This is not
just about lunch, okay?

This is about the soup of life,

being ladled into the bowl
of opportunity,

and--and poured
into the mouth of you.

I mean, if you were
to treat me...

- I will buy your drink.

- Yeah, that’s savings.
All right, let’s go.

Let’s do it.

- Soup there it is!

JAMES: Soup!

JAMES: Strut. Strut.
Get it, get it.

Look what Daddy got us
at the gas station.

We’re cool.

Our eyes were hot.

You guys,
we can’t buy you things

every time we go into a store.

That’s what stores are for,
Mama.

- Uh, no, baby.

Stores are for buying things
you actually need.

Daddy went into
a gas station

because Daddy needed gas
for the car.

He also bought
a pepperoni stick.

- That’s gas for me.
- Sure is.

Can we go?
This is not cool.

Get out of here.
You’re not cool.

Hit the road.

That was
a fruitful conversation.

Our kids are going to be worse
with money than we are.

Come on.
We’re doing okay.

James, we are $100 away

from going over budget
this month, again.

And we need groceries.

It’s actually more like $75.
I got soup.

Also, I bought an app
that monitors spending.

- How much was that?
- I don’t know...

There is this thing
called retirement.

I’ve seen it in commercials.

The concept is you get old

and then you actually
stop working.

Because the robots
took the jobs?

- No, because you saved
enough money

so you get to spend the rest
of your days

ziplining and sailing

and staring off
into the horizon.

I want that for us.

- I just want to sit around

and grin at nothing
with you, my love.

But what can we do?

- [cooing]
- [giggling]

- All right, we get it, you’re
cool backwards-heads guys.

VIV: No, we’re cool
hairy-face guys.

FELIX: We’re in a band.

- This family meeting is about
something a little important.

FELIX: The environment?

- Well...
- Not that important.

VIV: How worms are
little dirt snakes?

- Cash. Uh, we are running
out of money for the month.

- Just use your card.
- Well, cards are money.

There’s money in it,
or on it.

You can’t see the money,
but it’s there or isn’t.

- Yep, uh, money is real
and finite.

Although it’s only real because
we’ve all sort of agreed

to pretend that it’s real.

Sort of like laws
and international borders.

- How do I get to be
rich and powerful?

- That’ll never happen,
so put that out of your mind.

This family

spends too much money
on things that we do not need.

- We have a certain amount
of money each month,

and that’s called a budget,
and if we go over budget--

- We die.
- JAMES: That--

- Nope, that’s--okay.
- No, we don’t die.

- We go into debt.
- Stop interrupting.

- Yeah.
- Which means that

we can’t afford to save
up for things that might be fun.

- Like maybe going on vacation.
- Or a VR headset.

- A donkey with beautiful eyes.
- JAMES: Mmm, yes.

So we can’t spend any money
for three days.

- That’s it.
- You said we needed groceries.

- You know what? We don’t
need groceries because...

- Because...

- We have food in the freezer.

Old food.

JAMES: Okay, we got some egg
rolls, a couple of mini quiches,

some hash browns,
some lasagna here,

and some chili
or spaghetti sauce, you decide.

- Those quiche things
are from New Year’s.

- N-new...

- New Year’s.
- Yeah. New Year’s.

- Yeah, New Year’s.
- Sure.

- And those hash browns
are from Mother’s Day breakfast.

- Yeah, it’s like
an edible time capsule.

- I’m dipping my meat squares
in my chili.

It’s fine.

- Everything tastes
like nothing.

- Yeah.
- Neat, right?

- It’s great because we’re
saving money on groceries,

and we also cleaned out
the fridge.

- Yeah, this whole weekend’s
gonna be a piece of cake.

- Cake. Oh...

Viv has Cole’s birthday
tomorrow.

- Oh, no, no, no.

I forget, does the invite say,
"No presents allowed, please?"

- No. I feel like I remember
seeing "presents optional,"

which means, uh...

Viv, does Cole like quiche?

- I can make him a present.

- Really, honey?

- I don’t like him that much
anyways.

- Maybe don’t say that
to him on his birthday.

- To Cole!
- Yeah.

- VIV: To Cole...
- Problem solved!

- Quick, I need my glue.
- Glue.

- Colorful buttons?
- Colorful buttons.

- And, pass me
the colorful feathers.

- Mm, colorful--

Yeah, colorful feathers, okay.

Coming, stat.

ASTRID: As a parent,
you’re kind of like

a patron of the arts.

You give your child
the supplies they need

to explore and nurture
their talent.

JAMES: You have to keep
them busy and out of your hair.

ASTRID: Many googly eyes
and little snips of paper

end up in your vacuum cleaner
and heating vents.

But some of them will be
glued together to make art

or something art adjacent.

- Ah!

These set those costs $14?

Whoa!

[giggling]

- JAMES: Most of this art
eventually finds its way

to the trash.

ASTRID: But every
once in a while...

- VIV: It’s finished.

ASTRID: ...you get
a masterpiece.

VIV: Magic shoes.
- Oh! [clapping]

- [Astrid trilling her lips]
- [Andrew cooing]

- Hi!
- ASTRID: Ooh! Hi.

- Cole bit his grandmother.
- Yikes.

- How was the food?
- I’m stuffed with new food.

I don’t have to eat old food
for dinner.

- Splendid.
- So I just heard some news.

[clears throat] Donut Head
and Foul Mouth Chicken

are combining
for one weekend only

to make a donut-chicken sandwich
where the bread is donuts,

and it’s a onetime only thing
happening this weekend.

Uh-huh, uh-huh.

- Yeah, the big kids were
talking about it on the bus.

- They know everything.
They have phones.

- I have phones [laughing].

Our two favorite
local restaurants

are merging to create
a thousand calorie

donut-chicken sandwich

that they’re calling
"The Double Trouble."

Available only this weekend.

- We have to go right now.

- Okay, we only have $75 left
in the budget.

- How much are the sandwiches?
- Roughly $13 apiece.

- Thirteen times four, that’s...
52, subtract by seven...

So that’s $23 left
for our retirement.

- Okay, guys,
we really need to stick

to the not spending challenge.

- BOTH: Aww...

- But I think that if we don’t
spend this weekend, we maybe,

maybe deserve a little treat.

If you clean your rooms.

- BOTH: Yes!
- ASTRID: Yes, yes, yes.

- Okay, I am so confident
we are going to get through this

that I’m pre-ordering
these bad boys right now.

- But that puts us right
on the edge.

And I really want to bank
that $23 for our golden years.

- Totally. Totally. W--this says
"payment method declined."

- What? Let me check
the balance. Try again?

- The last time I used this card
was at the medieval place.

- That wench!
- You mean the server?

- They prefer wench.
I bet she fleeced us.

She looked very...
she was not trustworthy.

- You’re just saying that
because she dropped character

when you asked her
if the horses were strong.

- I mean...

- Oh, my God.

- This couch.
- What?

- Remember how we bought
the couch

at Don’t-Pay-a-Dime-
for-24-Months-Time event?

- That was two years ago?
- That was two years ago

- equals 24 months.
- Oh...

- The first payment just
came through,

it’s $129.

I don’t even like
this couch anymore.

- We weren’t fleeced by a wench,

we were fleeced
by our former selves.

And we’re 50 bucks over budget.

FELIX: I’m done
cleaning my room!

- No.
- [grumbling]

- VIV: Me too!
- No...

- Corey’s just showing the kids
his new recording studio.

- Care for a little snack?
- Oh, ooh.

JAMES: It’s a whole thing.
- Yes, please.

- So, what do you crazy kids
want to talk about?

- Actually, James and I
have some financial questions.

- How much do you need?

Keep it in your pants, Dawn.

- We just need some advice.
- Legal?

Do you need to file
for bankruptcy?

Have they threatened
to repo your car?

- No, no. No.
- What? Who--what are you--

- Who--no. We--
- No, no.

- We just need some help
staying on budget.

- We’re trying to teach our kids
healthy money habits,

and we realized that we...

- don’t have those.
- Zero.

- You know, I left the world
of high finance behind me

to embrace a simple,
bohemian lifestyle.

Sweetheart, do we have any
more of that truffle tapenade?

- Oh, no, no. You finished it

after Cirque du Soleil
last week.

- Mm. Bummer.

Well, every good financial plan
begins with a goal.

- Mm-hmm.
- What’s your goal?

- Well... there are these
chicken sandwiches...

- Mm.
- Mm-hmm.

- That’s...
- Well, they’re not just

- any sandwiches.
- No. Sorry.

- Yes. No, no, no.
- That’s--give credit

where credit is due.
Uh...

- Yeah.
- The bread is actually donuts.

- Hmm...

- Anyway, uh...
- Yeah, just...

we told the kids that if we
didn’t overspend this weekend,

we treat ourselves
to a fancy meal.

- Yeah.
- Well you need another source--

Oh, I’m sorry, go.

- You need another source
of income.

- How do we do--there’s--
we already have two of those.

- Well, it’s a modest goal,

so you only need
a modest increase in income.

- Oh.

Look at all our stuff.

We’re sitting on
a goldmine of second hand goods.

- Yeah.
Remember this waffle iron?

- Oh.
- This was expensive.

- How many times we use that?
- Like, three, tops.

- I had a little dream
about being

a Saturday morning waffle dad.

- You’re a bimonthly
pancake dad.

- Mm.
- And what are waffles

- if not plaid pancakes.
- I agree.

This waffle iron
is getting sold.

- He gone.
- Next!

- Next!
- JAMES: Okay, okay.

- What’s it gonna be?
- Here we go. Here we go.

- What’s it gonna be. Okay.
- JAMES: Oh.

Um...

- Oh, what about the blender?
- Oh?

- Mm...
- Real space hog.

- Yeah. As you know, I’ve been
having smoothies in the morning

instead of toast.
What about the toaster?

- Because you’re not eating
toast, James? Get over yourself.

- Okay, well, we need the stove.
We need a dishwasher.

ASTRID: Okay.
- That stays.

You got two hairdryers.
Do you need those?

- You need your phone
and clothes?

- Okay, well let’s just start
with the waffle iron.

- All right, we list
it for 50 bucks.

- Love your brain.

- Who’s the financial genius
now, Dawn?

- Hey, can you believe that
Corey, Dawn, and Bo

are coming with us
to Double Trouble?

Like, I can’t imagine your
sister having a single donut.

- Don’t let her prissy façade
fool you.

You’ve never seen her
gremlin her way

through a bucket of chicken.

- Do you think she’ll treat?

- [groaning }
- Sometimes she offers to treat.

- Yeah. It’s so smug
and so annoying.

- Yeah, we hate that.
It’s so annoying.

- Now when they do that,

- Yes.
- We pocket the money

from the waffle iron
and we shush our lips.

- Oh. This is all
getting shushed.

I don’t...

- How is this possible?
- I don’t...

- We have no bids
on our waffle iron.

Have we priced it too high?
Are we scaring people off?

- I think $50 is pretty low,
considering what people

are willing to spend on here.
Look at this guy.

He’s offering $80 to be driven
to the airport.

- What a ding-dong.
- What a weirdo. Why?

- Get an Uber, you creep.
- Who on Earth...

- Fifty dollars plus $80...
- Is $120.

- It’s going to go ahead and
be 130.

- One thirty. That’s $130.

ENNIS: [over phone] Hey,
this is Ennis.

I’m screening my calls
and you didn’t make the cuts.

- Leave a message, please, and
- [cat yowling]

- see what happens. No promises.
- [glass shattering]

- Ennis! If I wind up dead
or on Dateline it’s your fault!

You probably like that,
wouldn’t you?

Being interviewed
by Keith Morrison

all being like,
"I was his best friend,"

and using the publicity
to meet girls.

H-hey! Sor--hey--uh, bye.

Hey, are you [clears throat]
Jefferson?

- I’d prefer you didn’t use
my name going forward, James.

- Okay, and I prefer
you use the back seat.

- I’m a little big
for a car seat, James.

- Yep. Fair enough.

So maybe, uh, I was thinking
maybe we handle this upfront.

- I will give you $20 now,

and five dollars every
five kilometers until we arrive.

Does that work for you, James?

- Sure. Why do you keep
saying my name?

- Also, why can’t I say--
- What’s that, James?

- Nothing.

- Then let’s go, shall we?

James? No, we’re not going
to do that. Okay.

Well, we’re $80 richer,

and I don’t want
to ever hear my name again.

- How we doing here?
- This guy’s driving me nuts.

He’s asking a million questions
about the waffle iron.

- He wants to see the "papers."
- It’s not a show dog.

- Yes, okay, whatever
gets you off my back,

- "Bobsyouruncle69."
- [message sending sound]

- Sold.
- Wha--

We just--we’re up 50 bucks?

- Yeah, 43, give or take.
Take, actually.

- Wait, you sold it
for seven dollars?

- I haggled him up to seven.
He offered one.

- Well, the couch,
we’re down 54.

Then I drove Dracula
to the airport,

and the waffle iron,
that makes us...

- Well, we can’t do
the sandwiches.

- We can’t?
- [groaning]

- This is the saddest day
in my life.

- I’m sorry, guys,
we--we really tried.

- Don’t worry, there’s going
to be more hybrid junk food

that comes around.
Pizza taco...

the hot dog ice cream.

ASTRID: Wait...

- What’s going on?
Bob69 back in?

- LolaP.
I sold my hair dryers.

- Both of them?
- Mm-hmm. Package deal.

Yeah, one’s
a straightening iron,

one’s a curl diffuser...

- Twenty-three bucks.
- We have the money!

- Let’s close our eyes
and follow the smell there.

- You know, closing your eyes
and following the smell

is a dangerous game
in the city.

- Okay, remember,
no extras or add-ons.

Right? They will ask if you want
guac, and the answer is no,

because guac is always extra.

- Yes, and if Auntie Dawn says,
"Of course we must have guac,

it’s my treat,"
then we will not argue.

ASTRID: Okay.

- Shall we?
- Yes.

DAWN: Hi.
- What’s--

I--I thought
we were meeting there.

- Bo’s brother, Trevor,
needs us, it’s an emergency.

- Did something happen
to his Tesla? Did he go rogue...

- He was arrested in Indonesia
trying to import a rare bird.

- He’s in prison?
- He needs bail,

and they won’t
take any of his crypto.

We need to go to the embassy
right now and sort it out.

- I’m sorry you can’t make it.

- Oh, no one was more upset
than Corey,

so we thought you could
take him?

- Please?

- Of course. Yeah.

- Thank you.
- Oh, wait.

You’re going to need this
for him.

Uh... uh...

Ah, ah. Here it is.

Corey’s health card,
just in case.

BO: God forbid we have
another emergency.

It’s not our lucky day.

- Dang this stuff.

Well, listen,
we’ve got to run.

Corey, sweetheart, have fun
and listen to your body, okay?

- Okay. Love you, Momma.

- Love you, Baby Boy.
- Love you. Okay.

- Okay, that’s great.
- DAWN: Bye!

- Thank you, guys, thank you,
don--don’t worry about this.

We’re totally great.

Did you know give you any
money
for the, you know, sandwich?

- Nope. We’re short some
"you knows."

[cash register dinging]

- We only need eight bucks.
Can we just put it on credit?

- Okay, listen, we’ve gone
to insane lengths to prove

to ourselves and our kids
that we can handle this budget.

- We can’t blow it now.
- Okay, okay, you know what?

- I won’t have the sandwich.
- Okay, good, deal.

- What? You’re going to let me
not have the sandwich?

You’re not going to offer
or split a sandwich with me?

- It’s a fake offer, all right?
I won’t have a sandwich.

I’ll just eat the kids garbage
like I always do.

- Oh, you say it, that’s a real
offer, but when I do it--

- I don’t know how much
is in here,

- Huh?
- FELIX: but,

it’s probably enough
for all the sandwiches.

I’ll pay.

- Felix,
- Oh, my God...

you are such a sweetheart.

That’s--buddy, we’re not going
to be taking your money.

- No, I think it’s
such a beautiful offer, Felix.

We’ll take it
and we’ll pay you back.

I’m so proud of you.

- I actually think
we shouldn’t take it,

- because he saved that money.
- Oh, let him pay, it’s such

a beautiful gesture.

- I just, I for real
won’t have the sandwich.

- You have to have one.
Let me pay.

ASTRID: Felix, thank you.
- FELIX: I think

- we only have bills.
- ASTRID: Wow, a special moment.

Wha--
"I owe you?"

- So, Felix,
here’s what happened.

I borrowed that money
because the pizza man,

his debit machine
wasn’t working.

- Also, that happened twice.
- You robbed your son, James.

- I’m so sorry, Felix,
but we’re going to pay you back.

- Daddy will give you
that money back.

- We all had that pizza,
so I don’t know why I would...

- All right, there has to be
eight dollars of change

somewhere in this house.

We just got to find it.

FELIX: "I owe you?"

- Nope.

- No.

- Ah!
- Oh!

- COREY: Oh, my God!

- Hey, don’t destroy Viv’s
artwork for this.

- Viv was in daycare
when she made this.

- This is her teacher’s artwork.
- Okay, destroy that.

- Don’t breathe. Don’t breathe.
Don’t breathe.

God help me!

- Ah-ha!

- [grunting]

Yes!

- Oh...

FELIX: Yes!

- Yes!

Eight sixty-five,
we have enough!

- We have enou--
I can get a sandwich too?

- We have enough!

- Yeah!
- You can get a sandwich!

- Can I please have mine with
a regular bun instead of donuts?

- BOTH: No!

ASTRID: Ugh.
- Oof.

- I’m so full,
and I only ate half.

- Hey, you didn’t eat
your chicken.

- I just wanted the donut.
- Okay, you know what?

Everybody eat what you want.
Don’t eat what you want.

We earned this meal.
- Yes.

- I actually like
how disgusting it is.

- And you know what
extra food means?

- Leftovers.
- Mm, there it is.

All right, get ready
to pack it up, guys.

ASTRID: In the world
of finance,

kids are what are known as
a wild variable.

JAMES: Okay, is that
a technical term?

ASTRID: Probably. The point is
it’s hard to budget with kids.

Their needs and their wants
are constantly changing.

JAMES: Some people are great
at having a financial plan

and sticking to it.

ASTRID: While the rest of us
are just hoping

their kids become rich enough
to put us

in a fancy retirement home.

JAMES: Ooh, that’s the dream.

- [belching]

Morris did it.

- Your hands have gotten
so strong from the crocheting.

COREY: Water, please.
- Thank you.

COREY: [panting] Water.

I’m so thirsty
from that donut chicken place.

- Oh, how about
some pressed celery juice?

- Oh, or some sparkling?
- Oh, yeah.

- Wait. Is this the money
I told you to give Astrid Aunty?

- They never asked me to pay.

- I’m going to invest it

into your high interest
savings accounts.

- Yes! Thank you!

- We spoil you.
- Mm.

- Love.
- Give me that.

I’m so thirsty.
