MRS. BASKETS:
The new CEO

of Baskets Rodeo.

-[clapping]
-Thanks, everybody.
I appreciate that.

-Hey, how did you kids
get in here?
-Shut up, old man.

-Excuse me?
-DALE: The only lesson
that these kids understand

is a cinder block
to the face.

-Hey...
-Hear, hear. Cheers.

You guys are partying
with minors.

That is a Class A felony.

You really think
I'm a good CEO?

-Sure, you're a great CEO.
-Thanks, Dale.

[high-pitched hum,
heartbeat pounding]

NURSE [distant, echoing]: Now just move your eyes slowly, left to right.

Anything out of the ordinary?

Any distortions?
Swirling sensations?

Sir, just keep
moving your eyes, please.

Mm, who is that over there?

Oh, that's our clown.

Okay. I don't see any reason
why you can't go home,

I just wouldn't drive
for a couple days.

Well, I don't drive.
What's with this clown?

-Yeah?
-Is he a doctor?

-No.
-He's not much of a clown,
either.

NURSE:
Well, grief clowning
is a special skill.

I mean, he's got a certificate.

A certificate doesn't
mean anything

when you're in
the clowning business.

[quietly]:
Watch this.

[makes bird noises]

-Oh! Thanks!
-Yeah, no problem.

Maybe I can come by
and give him some pointers,

or maybe volunteer here,
I don't know.

Oh, it's a paying job.

-Paying job?
-Yeah.

I used to clown professionally,but I'm a CEO now.

-What-what are you doing?
-Oh, I was just looking
for my business card.

Oh, uh, well, you're wearing
a hospital gown.

That is true. Yeah.
Probably not in there.

Yeah.
All righty, then.

[phone ringing]

Oh, hi, Chip.
How are you?

Uh, listen.
Can you come pick me up

at the hospital, please?

Oh. Well, you know, honey,
I'm in Denver.

I got a carpet emergency.

Oh, gosh, I forgot
that you were in Denver.

I probably forgot
'cause I got hit in the head.

Oh, okay.
Well, feel better.

Uh, well, don't forget
to feed the cats, honey.

Okay.

-Mom?
-Sorry, Chip. Got to go.

-Mom!
-[phone beeps]

[sighs]
I'm down here.

The urn that is included
with the cremation

is a hard... plastic shell.

But if you'd like your father
to reside in something

-a little more gracious...
-Um, that's okay.

You're sure?

My dad loved plastic.

But how's that gonna look?

Oh, I'm probably just gonna
keep it in the closet.

That's fine.

What are your plans
for the service?

I haven't made any plans yet.

This was pretty sudden.

My dad fell off the roof
trying to fix the TV antenna.

And, unfortunately, he fellbefore he could finish the job,

-so it's still broken.
-Oh.

Now I can't leave
my mom home alone,

or she'llgo up on the roof
to try to fix the antenna.

I got it.
I got it.

Okay, well, um, I left my mom
at Costco temporarily,

but I should really get back
to her as soon as possible.

-Let's just finish this.
-Okay.

-[phone ringing]
-Oh, it's Chip.

-Hello?
-Hey, Martha, listen,
I need you to, uh...

I'll do it.

But you don't know what
I'm asking you to do.

-[phone beeps off]
-Sir, I've got to go.

I'll come back for my dad.

Do you miss my clowning?

Do I miss your clowning?

Yeah, it's
a legitimate question.

Um, not yet, I guess.

'Cause I do.

Hmm.

You know, I've been listening
to, to those success tapes.

The ones Tammy gave you?

Well, let's not get mixed up
in the personalities, Martha.

But let's just say
the system works.

It-it, it does.

-Okay.
-I do miss clowning.

Something reminded me
of that today.

Something?

Yeah, something, Martha, yeah.

I just-- I don't know,
I saw this clown,

and I thought...

maybe I should return
to clowning, you know?

As-as a hobby. Just-just do it
for the joy of it.

-Okay.
-You need to take a left
right here.

Um, we have to stop
at Costco first.

I ain't going
to no Costco, Martha.

-MARTHA: Well, my mom's here.
-[Chip sighs loudly]

CHIP:
Do you have a life
outside of Costco?

MARTHA:
Sometimes I go to Sam's Club.

Mom.

I can eat ham.

No one said you couldn't.

-Would you like a sample?
-Oh, hey, Lorenzo.

-No, thank you.
-I-I'll take some.I just got out of the hospital.

Thank you.

Okay, Mom,
let's get you home.

Okeydokey.

See you tomorrow.

MARTHA:
Well, we'll see about that.

Since my husband died,

my daughter won't let me
stay home alone.

Martha, your--
your dad died?

You didn't tell me.

Well...

Oh, God, uh-- You okay?
Do-- Is this--

I should hug you.
I'm gonna hug you, okay?

I'm going in for a hug, here...

-Okay. Well, ow, my cast.
-Okay, sorry.

It just happened, Chip.

We don't even know where
we're gonna have the services.

[exhales] God...

You're sad.
You must be sad.

I'm sorry.
Uh, uh, I'm so sorry.

All right, well, let me help.

I-I, I can, uh, let me host it.I could, I could host it.

Okay-- In your condo?

In my con-- No, but there's a--there's a common room

in my condo.
It's a great space.

We could d-- we could
have it there.

You think you could score it
for the wake?

-Yeah. Yeah-yeah, absolutely.
No problem.
-Okay.

All right.
Okay, Mom, let's go.

Chip's gonna host the wake.

Whoopie-do! [giggles]

See you tomorrow.

Well, we'll see
about that, okay?

Can I get, uh,
seven of those to go?

Yeah, come in.
You can come in.

Hi. I'm, uh, I'm Chip Baskets.
I'm a condo...

I'm a condo owner.

And I'm Anita in Operations.

Uh... I wanted to-to talk
to you, or to anybody

about reserving
the, uh, common room.

Um, yeah. Okay.

You'd have to talk to David.

-David?
-'Cause everything really
runs through... David.

Oh, yeah, that's what they--

Yeah, is he,
is he on the premises?

He is around,
but he's in and out.

And he's on the premises
of other premiseses

in California.

Um, so he just had a baby.

-Okay.
-Mm-hmm.

Well, luckily, you'rehere.

-Well, I can't do anything.
-So...

[chuckles] 'Cause I'm in sales.

But could I put a request in
through you?

Sure.

I will put in a request
with David.

-That sounds like a good plan.
-Right?

Thank you very much. Great.

If, uh, you need me,
I'll be in my unit.

-Okay.
-Thank you.

Mm-hmm.

CHIP:
Okay, you guys are fed,

I changed your litter box,
I gave you water.

I think I'm gonna be on my way.

-Mom!
-Chip!

-What are you doing here?
-What happened to your neck?

What do you mean?I called you from the hospital.

Well, I didn't know
it was so serious, honey.

Well, I'm-I'm totally fine.

Oh, hi, kitties.

What are,
what are you doing here?

I thought there was
a carpet emergency.

Well,
Martha's father died, honey.

-I came right home.
-Yeah, I know, it's sad.

Terrible.

Honey, never let me go
on the roof in my 90s, okay?

-What are you doing?
-I'm making a casserole

for Martha's family.

You know, when someone dies,
people get hungry.

Well, I told Martha
that I would, uh, you know,

try to throw a wake for her.

Oh, well, that's really nice,
honey. What are you planning?

You know, and I was
thinking about maybe...

I don't know, dipping my toe
back into clowning

and doing something,
you know, there.

At a funeral?

Yeah, grief clowning.
It's a, it's a specialty.

-Oh.
-It's...

You know, it makes
people feel better.

But I thought you were happy

being a CEO, honey.

I am, I am, I am.
I just, you know,

It's a performance itch,

and maybe I just want to scratchthat itch at the funeral.

Well, I guess I'd talk
to Daniel if I was you

because he's always planning allthese memorials at the church.

He'll tell you if being a clownat a wake is crazy or not.

It's not crazy, Mom.

Well...

I'll talk to him.

-You need some onions?
-Don't I.

[birds singing, dog barking]

When are we going to your work?

I'm taking a bereavement day.

If you're trying to get betweenme and the sample ham man,

forget it. I like him.

You don't even know his name.

Lorenzo.

-Okay, you're right.
-[doorbell rings,
knocking at door]

Why do people keep showing up?

My husband died.

-Oh.
-Oh! Martha, I'm so sorry

for your loss.
I brought you a casserole.

Thanks, I'll put it
in the fridge.

And don't worry about the pan,
get it back to me

whenever you can. It doesn't
match my other ones anyways.

It's a Le Creuset, though.
[gasps]

-Hi.
-There you are.

-Darling, how are you?
-Oh, not so good.

So sorry.

I can't stand being
in this house anymore.

All the memories, honey?

-No TV.
-No TV.

Well, let's sit and chat,
you know?

MARTHA:
Don't sit there,
that's my dad's paperwork.

Oh! Oh, geez, I'm sorry, Martha.

-Sorry.
-Thanks, Mrs. Baskets.

I appre-- Mom, stop.

-Do not go on the roof.-What is she doing on the roof?

She's trying to fix the TV. Mom.

[sighs] I'll take you to Costco.

MRS. BASKETS:
Costco? Always a good fix
when you're not

-feeling good.
-Here we go.

Hey, Reverend Kwon?

Oh, hey, Chip.

Hey, uh, do you have a minute?

Yeah.

Um, I just wanted to say
that I'm really sorry

about the other night
with those kids.

I wasn't thinking,
and that's... I'm sorry.

You coming here
and saying that...

Jesus teaches us to forgive.

That's all you had to do.

Who's Jesus?

Oh, oh, yeah, the guy from the--Yeah, the Bible guy. Yeah.

Um, hey, listen... [stammers]
I wanted to ask your advice.

I have to, uh,
perform a eulogy...

-Cool.
-...at...

Yeah, it is cool.

And, uh, my mom says
you're the master at it.

I mean, she may be
a little biased.

She's kind of a fan, but...

I think she has a crush
on you, actually.

[laughing]:
Oh, come on, Chip.

So I-I kind of came
to ask your advice.

I have this eulogy
and I wanted to bring

what I call my grief clowning

to the, to the wake.

Well, I always try to remember
that it's not about me, right?

It-It's about the mourned
and-and the mourners.

Yeah.

But I have managed to get someenormous laughs over the years.

-Hm.
-Is it open casket?

No, I don't think so,
no, no, no.

Yeah, gives you some leeway.

Maybe you could come to the
service and check it out and

-see what you think about it.
-Oh! Sure.

Yeah? Would you do that?

Yeah, you know what, y-y-yes,
I will. I-I-I will be there.

You know where the
Bullet Train Apartments are?

-Yes.-They're on Federalsburg Street.

-Yeah, okay. Okay.
-Okay.

All right, thanks, Kwon,
Reverend Kwon.

You got the bath
and the closet...

Sorry. Have you talked
to David yet?

Um, not yet.

They're not trying to get
the common room, are they?

No, but if you did want to,you do need to go through David.

Okay, you know what,
why don't we assume

that David's gonna grant me

-the common room...
-I'm so sorry.

...and then you can
tentatively slot me in

until maybe David vetoes it.

Hey, Martha, I wanted
to let you know

we have the common room.

We have the common room.

Oh, um, I didn't realize

that we ever hadn't had it.

We didn't didn't have it. We--
But I'm-I'm just saying

we have it for sure,
it's carved in stone.

Um, okay, thanks, Chip.

Yes, exciting. It's beautiful.
Lot of square footage,

uh, lights,
everything you need, couches.

I fell in love
with clowning as a child,

and, uh, actually, was formallytrained in-in-in France.

I don't have any specific
grief clowning training,

but I have a ton
of experience with grief

in my own personal life.

Mm.

I'm actually performing
at a wake this weekend

if you'd like to see me
showcase my talents.

Uh, there'll be a lot
of grieving there.

I mean, I'm-I'm-I'm hoping.

Um, we'll send a scout.

Perfect.

-[machine whirring]
-Excuse me,

we're setting up
for a memorial service here.

Are you friends of the deceased?

-What is with the hot choc...
-Chip.

You really pulled it off.

-Thanks, Mom.
-Hey, Martha.

Hi, Mrs. Baskets.

[quietly]:
Hey, Mrs. Brooks.

Hey, any news on my dish?

You mean the pale blue one?

-La Creuset.
-I thought you said it was

no hurry getting it back to you.

Well, no hurry doesn't mean
we lose our minds, Martha.

Chip, talk to her.

All right, no--
[exhales] Yeah, I will.

All right. And then I gotta go
upstairs and change clothes.

[whispers]:
I don't care about the dish.

How are you, Martha?

-I'm all right.
-[kids laughing]

Being an executrix
is a lot more complicated

than I thought it would be.

-[machine whirring]
-[kids laughing]

Can you hold on
one second, Martha?

Can you guys quiet down, please?

You were saying?

And my mom is mad at me 'cause
I wouldn't let her invite

the Hormel ham sample guy.

Martha, you got to stop
cockblocking your mom.

She's grieving.

And I don't know if this
is the best time for you

to be going over
your dad's paperwork.

Do you think I'm doing it
to avoid facing my feelings?

I don't know.
Is that possible?

Sounds like a good idea.

Hey, listen, I wanted you
to know that I'm, uh,

I'm gonna swing for the fences.

What fence?

That's just an expression.
Here. At the-the memorial.

I'm gonna, I'm gonna turn up
the clowning,

if that's okay with you.

Yeah, of course.

Okay. Thank you
for your faith, Martha.

[quietly]:
No-no-no-no-no.

That's Anita.
I'm gonna handle this.

Anita!
Look what you did!

And all without David.

A glimpse at what's possible.

My fingerprints cannot be
anywhere near this. Okay?

-Okay.
-And we just have to keep
this room open,

because this is the common area.

The kids need to be able
to come in and out

for the hot chocolate.

'Cause if David finds out
that I, that I okayed this

-without his approval...
-Yeah...

I am-- no-no-no--
you don't-- I'm dead.

Oh. No-no, I-I, I understand.

Um, but can I, can I introduce
you to the widow first?

Mrs. Brooks.

-There's somebody I want to--
want you to meet.
-What?

Come here. Yeah, just explain
that to the widow, please?

-Explain who to what?
I g-- I don't know...
-What you--

What you just said to me,
you just explain--

-Miss Brooks?
-What?

Uh, I just wanted to let you
know that they're--

During the-the service,
uh, and Anita will be able

to tell you better,
but during the service

there are gonna be
some small little tykes

-getting some hot chocolate.
-What?

-My husband died.
-ANITA: I know.

How much hot chocolate
are you guys gonna need?

MRS. BROOKS:
What?

CHIP:
Nothing. Nothing, Mrs. Brooks.

Okay, so try to keep it
under an hour,

and I will try to keep them out.

-Okay. Thank you.
-Thank you.

[machine whirring]

♪

Hi, everybody.
Um...

I think we should just
get started.

Uh, we're gonna lose this room
in less than an hour,

so we should get started, yeah.

Okay, uh, so, um,

Mr. Brooks, uh,
died accidentally

while fixing the TV antenna.

It's still not fixed.

MRS. BASKETS:
They still have an antenna?

Why don't we take up
a collection for cable?

I don't think we have time
for that.

-Uh...
-MRS. BASKETS: No?

Okay. Yeah, sure.
Uh, here, well...

um... hold on a moment.

-Here, just pass this around.
-MRS. BASKETS: Yeah.

Here, we'll put it
right over here.

But as I was saying,
Mr. Brooks died accidentally,

but some say heroically.

Falling off the roof.

Which reminds me of a punch lineof a joke,

and the punch line is,
"Grandpa is on the roof."

And then, uh, the set-up for itgoes like...

Okay, there was a cat on a...

There was a cat on the roof...

Yeah, okay, so-- Oh, yeah.

-So there-there's a, um...
-Move over, Martha.

Martha, did you, uh, did you
want to say something?

Not right now.

Okay. Uh, so, uh,
I think the...

Oh.

I'm sorry, I tried to keep themout, but they're kids.

By the way, if the scout
is here, whoever you are,

I'm sorry, but...

[machine whirring]

Uh, so, so sorry about this.

Okay, kids, uh...

Hold on. [chuckles]

Hey, guys.

Who wants to do the conga?
[claps hands]

Who wants to do the conga?

Put your hands on my hips,
right here.

-Okay.
-Okay, here we go,

doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo.

Uh, doo-doo-doo-doo,
[plays kazoo]: doo-doo.

-[playing kazoo]:
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo.
-A congo.

-[continues playing kazoo]
-[chuckling]

-MARTHA: Lorenzo... no.
-MRS. BROOKS: Ooh.

-Mom...
-It's okay.

It's too early for you
to be flirting with him.

All right.

I'll fix the TV.

We got you money for cable.

Ugh. Mrs. Baskets.I can't give you your dish back.

I can't wash it.
You burned the casserole

-to the bottom of the dish.
-Oh, well.

Well... [whispers]:
don't worry about it, Martha.

CHIP:
Okay, uh...

[stammers]
Hurry this along.

Um...

Don't-don't come back here.

-[children vocalizing]
-MRS. BASKETS: They're back.

[playing along on kazoo]

CHIP:
They're a little hyped up

on hot chocolate, I think.

-[scattered laughter]
-Okay, guys, thank you.

Oh.

-[applause]
-Oh. They like it.

They like it. Bow, bow, bow.

Okay, uh, and then
just maybe right back out.

Here we go. There we go, gang.

[Chip and kids vocalizing]

-[playing along on kazoo]
-ANITA: Oh, David?

Hi. Yeah, I've been trying
to call you over and over,

but you were signed out.

-Is that David?
-ANITA: Did you get the...

Oh, yeah, you can...
you can use the room.

-We have the room?
-For how long?

Three...
three hours if you want.

-MRS. BASKETS: Oh!
-We have the room!

-We have three more hours. Okay.-MRS. BASKETS: The room!

-We have the room.
-[sighs] What a relief.

Now we can respect Mr. Brooks
the way he should be.

MRS. BASKETS:
We raised $63.

Great meeting y'all.

Take care.

That was a big success,
don't you think?

It was...

Oh, I thought
Chip was so terrific.

It was very cool
and unusual and interesting.

You liked it?

I love the kids' conga.

Yeah. I mean, when you work
with kids, you never know.

You know, lot of wild card
situations there, but, uh...

Yeah, it all worked out.

I laughed. I never laugh.

I've seen you laugh.

Maybe I'm not aware of it.

Chip, you're CEO,

but maybe this is, you know...

you.

Thank you.

DANIEL:
Well, anyway,

got to run.
God bless. Thank you.

-Thank you for letting me
be part of this.
-Bye.

-See you in church.
-Okay.

[Mrs. Baskets chuckles]

Mom, you want
some hot chocolate?

-It's really good.
-Oh, yes.

Are there any tiny marshmallows?

Yeah. How many you need?

Oh, you know,
just fill it up, honey.

BOY:
He started slow

but sort of warmed up a bit.

He got some scattered laughter.

His makeup needed a little work,

but his costume was decent.

I'd be inclined to move him
to the next round.

Okay. Thanks for helping.

Ooh, candy. Yay.
