Sinc By Maubri Metr�nomo

out here in the middle, family rules.

It's ingrained from the day you're born-
-

You do for family.

For the past year,
I've spent every Saturday

Taking care of my great-aunts
edie and ginny.

I drive 'em to the grocery store,

The liquor store and whatever
else they need

To get 'em through till t he
next Saturday.

but this Saturday I had a problem.

Mr. Ehlert's making
us all come in today.

I think he's trying
to break our spirit

By isolating us from
the ones we love.

I can't do the aunts today either.
We're both maxed out.

Hey, could you keep it down in there?
I'm trying to watch tv.

And that's when it hit me--

The lump eating cereal on the couch
in his underpants

Had a driver's license.

Hey, axl. I'm gonna need
you to start helping out

With aunt edie and aunt ginny,
arting today.

Whoa! I get it.
Talk as loud as you want. God.

No, I'm serious, axl. There's
no reason you can't contribute.

They're your aunts, too.
You do for family.

You know what?
I completely see your point,

And I'd be so up for doing the
whole old lady thing today,

Except, sadly, my car doesn't work.

Oh. You can drive mine.
Dad can take me to and from work.

God, you are so unfair!

I already do just as much
as you do around here.

I just don't complain about it!

When we get old,
we're not counting on him

To take care of us,
right? We got another plan?

Yeah.

Brick... Kevin siccola invited you

To his birthday
party next Saturday?

How long has this invitation
been in your backpack?

Oh. Sorry.

Brick!

That's not very nice.

Come on. This'll be fun.

I don't want to go.
He only invited me

Because his mom made him
invite everyone in the class.

Hey, you don't know that.

Yes, I do. He told me when
he gave me the invitation.

You know how you're gonna
get him back? You show up.

So you're forcing me?

We would never call it that,
but yes.

Hey. Oh, hey. I'm almost ready.

Mr. Ehlert's on the warpath,

So you might want
to wait in the car.

frances!

To take care of him for you?

Oh, honey, that would
be so great. Car. Go.

Frances, if you're not
gonna sell any cars,

At least could you wash
out the coffee mugs?

Yeah, um, mr. Ehlert,

This is my husband mike.

Mike, mr. Ehlert.

How you doing? Oh, hi, mike.

Tall men, little wives.
always funny.

Hmm. Huh.

And when keith smart
hit that last shot,

The whole place
just about exploded!

I can't believe you were there.

Saw it with these two eyes.

Best day of my life,
and that includes my wedding,

The birth of my children and
the day we liberated iraq.

okay, I'm ready to go.

Well, Don, was great to meet you.

You, too, stretch.

I'm just saying there's
a lot of bluster,

But, uh, he seems pretty
harmless. Oh, my god.

Just because he likes sports
doesn't make him a nice guy,

Stretch.

Hey, wait up!

faster. Walk faster.

I was just thinking, uh,

You know, my team's
not in it this year,

And, uh, it'd just be painful
for me to watch, so, uh...

Oh, my god.

These are tickets
to the final four!

Yep. Both games on Saturday.

I don't know what to say.

Well, that's what I like about you.

Mr. Ehlert, this is too generous...

For my husband,
who doesn't even work here.

Yeah, yeah. Blah, blah. I get it.

You just have yourself a
good time there, stretch.

And, frances, you were ten
minutes late this morning!

Come in early tomorrow,
or I'll dock ya.

Sue, I can't go to
this birthday party.

It'll be horrible--

Tons of kids chasing
each other, running.

They eat sugar,
and then they run more,

For no reason.

Then tell mom you don't want to go.

I tried, but she doesn't get it.

She thinks I have
trouble fitting in.

fitting in.

Well, then maybe you should
just suck it up and go.

or you could call as mom

And tell her I can't come.

Wha--brick! I can't do that.

Sure you can. You have
such a grown-up voice.

Really?

Wow, you sounded so mature
when you just said that.

Please, sue. If you do
this for me, I'll...

I'll do your math homework.

You'll get an "a." I promise.

hello. You've reached the siccolas.

Please leave a message.

Hello, mrs. Siccola.

allison. I mean, allison.

This is frances heck,
mother of brick heck.

Sadly, brick will be unable
to attend vin's birthday party

This Saturday.

Please accept our sincere regrets.

Bye.

Oh! This is frances heck,
mother of brick heck.

aah! I can't believe
I just did that.

I've never lied before
in my whole life.

Really? Have you?

No.

I'm lying.

What do you mean you're not
sure who you're taking?

I'm just sayin',
he gave me the tickets.

I have to weigh my options.

Well, taking anyone
other than your wife

To the final four is a
very dangerous option.

You have tickets to the final four?

No way! You can't take mom.
She wouldn't even appreciate it.

I'll see who treats me best
in the next couple days,

And that person gets to
go with me on Saturday.

Gee, I wish I weren't so thirsty.

Of course I'm taking you.

I just want to see how
far I can push this.

No frosty mug?

Hello? Yeah--

Oh, hi, aunt edie.

Ah.

now...

If there were only
some way to get this...

Into this.

Hey, what's going on?

Oh, it was aunt edie.

She called to tell me
my great-uncle mac died.

Oh, honey, I'm sorry.

Yeah. he was 91. Mm.

You know, I hadn't seen
him that much lately,

But when I was little,
every time we visited him,

He gave us a slice of bologna.

He was aunt edie's
favorite brother.

She's pretty upset. Oh, jeez.

They're shipping him
back for the funeral.

It's gonna be Saturday.

Saturday, huh?

This Saturday?

hey, guys.

I just heard some sad news.

Your great-great-uncle mac died.

Oh, my god. No!

Oh, it's okay, honey.

I know it's hard,
but he had a good, long life.

Was he the one who used
to wear suspenders?

No, that's your uncle nate. It is?

I thought uncle nate was the one
with the big toe for a thumb.

That's uncle lou.

No, uncle lou is the one
who can take out his eye.

No, that's your cousin roy.

Uncle mac was your aunt
edie's favorite brother.

You only met him once
when you were very little.

Oh.

So the one with the big toe
for a thumb is still okay?

We should visit him sometime.
He's funny.

Okay. Listen, guys.

I could use some help in the
next few days, all right?

Oh, and remind me
to call mrs. Siccola

And teller that brick can't
come to kevin's party.

Mom's gonna call mrs. Siccola,

And then she's gonna find out

That we already called!

Don't panic.
Here's what we're gonna do.

You're gonna call mrs.
Siccola again

And say I can come to the party...

So when mom calls and says I can't,

It will all make sense.

Ay. Good. hello. You've rched
the siccolas.

Please leave a message.

Hi there, allison.

Just calling to let you know

That my son can come
to party after all.

Thank you.

who's your son?
You didn't say who you were.

hi. Forgot to say my name.

It was frances heck,

Just letting you know that
brick can't come to the party.

he can. He can come to the pa
rty.

at least for now.

not that we're expecting
anything to happen.

All signs are clear
that he is coming.

did I say axl?
Because I meant brick.

You know, I just
wanted to be accurate.

Hello?

so...

This funeral-
it's really on Saturday?

Yeah, that's what she said.

Hey, does your sport
coat still fit?

Oh, and don't wait
till the last minute

To see if you have a shirt.

Huh. Seems like
there's a lot to do.

I'm thinking they should just
maybe push it till Sunday.

What?

I don't know. Just Sunday
seems like a better day.

You know, the lord's
day and all that.

Saturday--not such a
great funeral day to me.

Yeah, well, that's
what day it is, mike.

Besides, what do you
care what day the--

Oh... My... God.

Oh, my god!

If you're suggesting what
I think you're suggesting,

You are opening a door
you do not want to open.

It's the final four, frankie.
Final four!

It's his funeral, mike!

Final funeral.

I know, but...

Is anyone really gonna miss
me if I can't be there?

If it was immediate family,
I'd definitely go.

Well, it just might be if you
keep going down this road.

Come on. I barely knew the guy.

I met him at our wedding and,
like, one other time.

I thought he was the guy with
the toe for a thumb, too.

Yeah, but we're not
going for his sake.

We're going for aunt edie.
Funerals are for the livin.

That's what I'm saying.
If this teaches us anything,

It's that we should live
life while we're here...

In indiana...
Where the final four is.

when am I ever gonna get
a chance like this again?

You know what?

I'm not gonna sit here
and explain to you

Wh the right thing to do is.

This is between you and yourself,

And if you would rather go
to the final four instead of

My 91-year-old-uncle-who-used-
to-give-me-bologna's funeral,

Then you go.

It's up to you.

Okay.

I want to go to the final four.

Fine. If that's what you want.

It is.

Fine. Then it's settle

We don't have to
talk about it again.

All right, I get it.
You're still mad.

I'm not mad, mike.

I guess I just don't
understand. That's all.

I don't understand why you
can't just come to the funeral

And tape t games.

Tape the games?

So instead of actually being there,

I can watch it three hours later,
sitting on my couch,

After everybody else
already knows who won.

Tape the games?

Seriously, tape the games?
Tape the funeral!

At least I won't have to worry

About anybody telling
me how it ends.

Forget it, mike.

I guess we just have cultural
differences I wasn't aware of.

Cultural diff-
what are you talking about?

Cultural differences?
We're both from here.

Well, you'd never know it.

Death is a big deal
to my family, mike.

We do death very well-
not like your family,

Where you just ts 'em
in a hole and drink.

Either way, they end
up in the same place.

And--and how are we
gonna explain to axl

Why his father isn't going?

Oh, this is just a little amendment

To what we said before-
we do for family,

Unless something
better comes along,

And then to hell with it.

I don't even know why
we're talking about it.

You won, mike. You won.
You're not going. You won.

You won, you won, you won, you won.

Fine! I'll go to the funeral.
Thank you!

Fine. Then it's settled.

We don't have to
talk about it again.

Okay, I get it. You're sulking.

Am I not allowed to sulk anymore?

I'm not allowed to
go to the final four,

And I'm not allowed to sulk?

I think if you put this in
perspective, you'll see--

look, you wanted me
to go to the funeral,

And I'm going. You won.

You got what you wanted,
so be happy.

But I don't want you to go
because I want you to go.

I want you to go because
you want to go.

Well, I don't! Well, you should.

How would you feel if you died,

And someone came to your funeral
because someone else made 'em,

And what they really wanted to
do was be at a basketball game?

I'd feel dead! I wouldn't care.

As a matter of fact,
I'm gonna specify in my will

That if I die during any
major sporting event,

No one has to come to my funeral.

Oh, I have a better idea.

Why don't we take you
to the nearest stadium,

And we'll shoot you out of the
t-shirt cannon At halftime?

Look, it doesn't matter if
I want to or don't want to.

This is obviously important to you,
and I get that.

I said I'm going, and I'm going,

So just leave it alone!

If you can't go to this funeral
with a smile on your face,

Then don't go. Fine. I won't.

Don't. Fine.

Then it's settled.

We don't have to
talk about it again.

Hey, so I heard dad's going
to the game, so there's-- no.

Brick was learning a ban

Of master criminals is only as strong
as its weakest link.

I can't handle the pressure.
I'm gonna go to mom.

I'm gonna turn myself in.
Pull yourself together.

The only way this goes
bad is if you lose it.

I never should have lied.
You talked me into it.

You're in this as deep as I am.

You got your math homework done.

You got your precious "a."

I don't want to be a
part of this anymore.

I want out. I want out!

You should've thought of
that before you got in.

Here's what you're gonna do.

You're gonna call as mom again

And tell her someone's
been using mom's name,

So whatever they called and said,
it's the opposite.

Okay.

hello. You've reached the siccolas.

Please leave a message.

Hello, allison.

Listen, I just wanted
to let you know

That there's some kids
in the neighborhood

Pretending to be me and r.
S.V.P.Ing in crazy ways,

So you shouldn't trust any calls

You may have received previously.

But I am the real mom.

You can tell 'cause
I'm so stressed out.

I can't tell you the
last time I took a bath,

And we both--

Oman) hello? Who is this? Oh, hi.
You're there.

Uh, yeah, so I was just
saying how we're both moms,

And we both know how hard it is

When we're trying to
go to the bathroom

And the kids are pounding
on the door, right?

wait. This isn't frankie heck.

It's sue heck. It's always
been sue heck! I'm so sorry.

I've never done anything like
this before in my whole life,

But I got a 79 on my math test,
and I needed my brother's help,

And I'm just so weak!
Please don't tell my mom!

Hey.

Hey.

So I picked up aunt
edie's photo album

For the slide show at the funeral.

I didn't know aunt
edie lived with us.

What?

Yeah. I found this picture of
her and me when I was a baby.

She said she lived here
for a while. Oh, yeah.

After you were born,
your mom and I both had to work,

And you'd never sleep,
so aunt edie moved in

For a few months and helped
take care of you. Hmm.

Hmm.

I want to go to the funeral.
I really do.

And there it was.

Mike wanted to go to the funeral.

he didn't want to want to go,
but he did.

I am recording the games.

I got beer in the fridge,
a couple bags of chips.

When I get home,
I'm taking off my pants

And watching the whole
thing from start to finish.

Uh, that's really cutting edge

That you're taping
that on your vcr,

But for those of us who
aren't living in the '80s,

I'll be getting tweets of the score

Sent to me during the funeral.

You so much as breathe a
word of that score to me,

And that phone's going in
the ground with uncle mac.

I don't get it.

Why hasn't mom punished us yet?

She must know.

Or does she?

does she?

I just wish she'd punish
me and get it over with,

'cause the guilt is killing me.

Mom trusted me.

Now she'll know I'm not
the child she thinks I am,

And I'll have lost
that trust forever!

Okay, guys, time to go.

Mom, there's something
I have to tell you.

I called mrs. Siccola.
I called her about the party.

Oh, honey, thank you.

Oh, I've been meaning
to do that all week.

And an "a" on your
math homework, too.

You are my good girl.

We got away with it.

But at what cost, brick?

at what cost?

Come on, guys. Aunt edie's
probably already there.

We don't want to be late.

whoa. I don't feel so good.

Yeah, nice try. You're still goin'.

No, I got this pain in my gut.
I feel like I might be sick.

That's how you know you're
doing the right thing

brick, what are you doing?

I'm trying to find the guy

With the toe for a thumb.

Oh, no!

No--

Uncle mac, gone too soon,

Huh, dad?

Aw.

Welcome, friends.

We're here today to
remember mac freehold--

Friend, uncle, cousin

And, of course, beloved brother.

Mac was especially close
to his baby sister edie,

Who has some thoughts she'd
like to share with us now.

Thank you, pastor.

I just want to thank
you all for coming.

It means so much
to have you here...

At my birthday party!

You know,

I have friends who just
dread their birthday,

But I just say,
consider the alternative.

I couldn't believe it.
I had dragged mike away

From the event of a lifetime
so he could be here,

Even though aunt edie
apparently wasn't.

Hey, aunt edie,

I think you're aittle confused.

We're not here for that.

We're actually here f-for...

� happy birthday to you �

� happy birthday to you �

� happy birthday, dear edie �

� happy birthday to you �

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

How was I supposed to know
it was all for nothing?

Listen, go to indianapolis.

You can still catch
the second game.

We'll find a ride home.
You just take axl and go.

Okay.

axl, you're gonna have to drive.

Hey, get us there by tip-off,
I'll buy ya a hoosier dog.

Aah!

That's the thing about life.

You wake up in the morning,

You never know what's gonna happen-
-

You get handed tickets
to t he final four,

Your uncle dies, you think
your husband's faking it

And he has appendicitis.

Do you have any allergies?
Anything we need to know?

One thing.

You know the scores from the
final four, don't tell me.

now don't worry. We're gonna
pop that appendix out,

And you'll be good as new.
he's almost out.

Hell of a game, huh? Oh,
best finish I ever saw.

Great day to be a duke fan.

no!

At the end of the day,
wrong or right,

You do for family--

Whether they appreciate it or n
ot,

Whether they even know it or n
ot.

You do it 'cause it's just what you do.

Here's your soup,

With little crackers
and everything.

Aw, I didn't want u to get it 'cause
I wanted you to get it.

I wanted you to get it because
you wanted to get it.

Okay then.

Frankie, I was just kiddin'.

You know I don't
care what you want.

Just bring me myoup!
