Okay, who wants
to be measured first?

- Me. I do.
- Okay, get up here.

- Okay, wait a second.
- No, she's got to turn around.

Here. Let daddy show you
how it's done.

'Cause then I'm going to
lie down.

See, shoes off.

Heels against the wall.

Feet together, head level.

- Alright.
- Go ahead.

Okay. And 5'11 and 3 quarters.

What? No, no, no,
I'm 6 feet tall.

- Me next.
- Not yet. Wait, wait, Ally.

Let daddy do it. Do it again.

- Okay, 5'11 and 3 quarters.
- No!

It says 5'11 and 3 quarters.

You can't tell on a giraffe.

I'm 6 feet tall, everybody.

I'm 6 feet tall!

Ray Barone. Black hair,
brown eyes, 6 feet tall.

People say, "Who are you?" I'm
6 feet tall. That's who I am.

Alright. And...

- 5'11 and 3 quarters.
- Come on.

That's what it says.
Look, 5'11 and 3--

Alright. Alright!
What, you like saying it?

You don't have to get so upset
about it.

Guys care about height,
you know?

Just like women care
about weight.

I don't care about weight.

Yeah, you don't 'cause you only
weigh about, what, 140?

See, don't get on
your high horse

if you can't take the smell.

Ray, I'm sorry about your
height. I still love you, okay?

God! The kids love you.
Don't you, kids?

- See?
- I'm 6 feet tall.

Honey, maybe you were
6 feet tall

but you just shrunk
a little bit.

- What do you mean, shrunk?
- Well, that happens, you know?

As you get older,
people tend to just...

Shrink?

Look, it's not a big deal. It
happens to everyone.

I'm shrinking now?

Ray, now don't get all,
you know...

- Oh, my God. I'm shrinking.
- Ray!

Mommy is not 140.

Man, it was so close!

Hey, listen up, everybody. I've
got an announcement to make.

I suck and I quit.

You only blew the game-winning
shot, what's the big deal?

Yeah, there'll be other
game-winning shots.

Hopefully, you won't take them.

Look, isn't it obvious?
I'm too short to play this game.

- What?
- 'I measured myself yesterday.'

And I'm a quarter-inch shorter
than last year.

Ray, you could shrink a foot
and still not be

the shortest guy on the team.

You could lose a leg
and still not be the slowest.

Don't you see?
I'm going to keep shrinking.

- I'm old!
- Relax, Ray.

You weren't that good
to begin with.

Raymond. Raymond. Raymond.

Sounds like you're having
a little mid-life crisis.

What? No, no, God.

Mid-life crisis.
I don't want one of those.

I do. I can't wait for mine.

I'm gonna get a Harley and a
girl who's impressed by Harleys.

Yeah, well, Debra won't let me
have either of those.

Oh, that's not the problem.

Come here, Raygeleh.

You're worried that
you're not going to accomplish

everything you set out
to do in life.

- I am?
- Who knows?

But I went to this
self-improvement seminar

to meet women, and I learned
that people with goals

don't worry so much
about getting old.

- Did you meet anyone?
- No one.

Apparently, I don't appeal
to women with goals.

You know
what I always wanted to do?

Run the New York Marathon.

- Come on, for real?
- Yeah, yeah, real.

Hey, guys, what is with all this
dream crap?

Why don't you go home,
hug your fathers, and maybe

we'll win a game.

You know what you gotta do, Ray,
what they made us do

at the seminar. You make
a list of the 100 things

you want to do before you die.

- 100?
- I can come up with like, four.

Easy.

Yeah, you just think of the
stuff that you want in your life

that you don't have.

Look, I don't need
any of that, alright?

All I need is another
quarter-inch.

Who doesn't?

Yeah. You are correct there.
You're right on the money.

"Things to do before I die."

It's personal, okay? Like you
have your feminine products.

Is this about you shrinking?

Maybe a little.

Look, the, the guys...

...thought that the reason the
shrinking thing is bothering me

is 'cause...
I'm having a mid-life crisis.

Yeah, and I need some goals, you
know? Something to shoot for.

You want to have an affair?

What? Where did that come from?

Well, how come
you won't show me?

Yeah. I put "have an affair"
on paper.

That's one of my goals.

Disappoint another woman.

Yeah, I get it.

Okay, just give me the list,
alright? I just want to see it.

Look, just keep in mind,
it's not really done yet.

"Peking duck, goat cheese
pizza." What is this?

I told you,
it's goals and stuff.

These are your goals?
These are restaurant specials.

I've never had the Peking duck.

So your goal is
just to eat things

you've never eaten before.

Not entirely.

"Enlarged prostate."

See? That's, that's something
that I want to avoid.

Not something I wish to eat.

- What?
- I see.

- What? What are you--
- Well, Ray, come on.

You're a writer,
don't you want to do something

like I don't know, write
the great American novel or...

Well, I thought about that,
and then I thought...

I don't even want to read
the great American novel.

Well, I mean, there's got to be
something else you want to do

besides "Never throw up again."

No. That's it, see? That's it...
I got nothing. I got no dreams.

Ray, everybody has dreams.

Yeah? What do you have?
What's on your list?

- Me?
- Yeah.

Well, I just thought that,
you know, after the kids grow up

it might be nice... if,
I don't know, we moved upstate

and opened a little
bed-and-breakfast somewhere.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Bed-and-breakfast?

What do you mean,
like, strangers

coming in and out of our house
all the time?

Yes, Ray, strangers. I'd like to
try strangers for a change.

I don't know.
This is all happening too fast.

I.. We don't have to
do it today, Ray.

I'm just trying to
get you thinking.

Yeah, I'm thinking I'd better
come up with something

before I end up with
your bed-and-breakfast...

...tucking in a gay couple
from Cleveland.

Alright. Alright.

You know, you know what,
maybe the reason that you can't

come up with any goals
for yourself

is that, in your own Ray way

you're actually content.

Where are you picking up
that vibe?

Look at the facts, you have
a great job, a wonderful family

a loving wife
who weighs nowhere near 140.

- Yeah, so what are you saying?
- So...

I think maybe
you've already accomplished

more than
you've ever dreamed of.

- You really think so?
- I do.

Maybe you're one of
the lucky people

who's actually
living his dream. Hm?

- Wow.
- Yeah. See? You feel better?

Yeah.

- What? What, Ray?
- I'm just, I'm thinking...

If what you said is true,
and I've already done everything

then... I guess...
this is all there is.

- Hey.
- Oh, good morning, Raymond.

- Want some eggs?
- No. No, thanks.

Listen, I want to ask
you guys something.

When I was a kid, do you
remember me having a dream?

I remember you wetting the bed.

No, I-I don't mean that. I mean,
like, what did I want to be?

Dry.

- Morning.
- Oh! How many eggs, Robbie?

Uh, three. And today
I'd like them raw, in a glass.

- What?
- I'm in training.

Going to be running
the New York Marathon this year.

Come on.
You're really going to do that?

That's right.

Marathon, huh?

Put me down for a buck a mile.

You don't pledge for this one, dad.

I'm not pledging, I'm betting.

I say you'll cry
like a little girl by mile two.

Ray, you want some
of this action?

Look, at least
he's got a dream, right?

Are you making fun, too?

No, I'm actually jealous.

You have a dream.
I've got nothing.

Nothing?

- You've got nothing?
- What?

House, wife...

...little daughter, twin boys.

That's nothing to you?

That was my dream!

Hello!

So why don't you just go take
your little mid-life

"I'm shrinking, I'm dying,
I don't have any dreams"

and go right back
across the street to paradise.

- Look, you don't understand--
- Oh, yeah, I don't understand.

Just go, okay, because I'm going
to tell you something. I have...

Ow!

- A-are you alright, Robert?
- Yeah, fine, ma, I'm fine.

- Raymond.
- What? What do you...

Okay, ow-ow-ow-ow-ow.

Guess I'm just gonna
have to scratch

dream number two off my list.

Go ahead
and cook those eggs, ma.

I should have put my money
on warm-up.

Raymond, why didn't you tell us

you were having
a mid-life crisis?

The announcements
are still being printed, ma.

Here, sit down, have some eggs.

You know what
I always wanted to do, Ray?

Sing like Tony Bennett.

Tony Bennett?

That's right. But look at me.
Am I Tony Bennett?

No.

You see, you do a thing,
and that's what you are.

One guy lives in Brooklyn.

One guy lives in Sutton Place.

Another guy's a lawyer,
one guy is a doctor.

Another guy dies, another guy
gets well, people are born...

What the hell are you
talking about?

Don't worry so much. You die.
You did what you did.

Stop saying "die." It's obvious
Raymond's afraid of dying.

What am I supposed to tell him?
That it's not going to happen?

It's going to happen.
You're gonna die!

- Thank you, dad.
- There you go.

Now, Raymond, you know,
we are all afraid of death.

But the important thing is
to be ready.

See, your father and I have
all we need, right in here.

We have our will
and our insurance

and the deed to our burial plot.

Where's the permit
to the neighbors' parade?

- Frank. Frank, what is this?
- What?

Our joint burial plot.
It only mentions one.

- Where's the other plot?
- What, who cares? I sold it.

You sold half of our
joint burial plot?

The people next to us
had an unexpected death.

They were very upset.

I got twice what I paid for it.

It wasn't yours to sell.

I sold my half of the plot.

How do you know
it wasn't my half, Frank?

I always sleep on the left.

And-and when were you going
to tell me about this?

I wasn't. I figured if you went
first, you couldn't yell at me.

And if I went first,
yell all you want.

You have always wanted to
leave me, haven't you?

Till death do us part, Marie.
After that you're on your own.

Why don't you fulfill one of my
dreams, and leave me alone now?

Holy crap! We found something
we have in common.

How bad can death be?

- Hey, cornflake.
- Hi.

In a good mood, huh?

Yeah, I did a lot of
productive thinking today.

- Yeah?
- Gonna get cremated.

- What?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I think
it just makes sense, you know?

More, more sense than burial.

I'm not all that gung ho
about decomposing.

How did you get onto this?

Look, it pays
to think about these things.

Oh, hey,
don't be like that, either.

I don't want a big, sad funeral.

You know, make it like
a celebration. You know?

People telling stories, funny
anecdotes about me, you know?

Like a roast.

What is wrong with you?

Good news.

I found a cemetery
that can fit us all in.

Uh, misery,
your company's here.

Look, i-it's beautiful.

But-but it may be
a little tight, see.

One of us has to be vertical.

I don't know, ma.
I'm thinking of going cremation.

Oh, you want to go off
on your own, too?

This family is falling apart.

- This does look nice, though.
- See?

Debra, would you mind
being the vertical one?

Why Debra, ma?

Well, it can't be your brother

his head would stick out
of the ground.

Hey, how about a wood chipper?

Then we could all fit
into one big trash bag.

That's morbid, dear.

Yes.

Deb, you should look at this.
It's pretty good.

Deb.. Deb!

You're going to die, you know.

Deb, look, I know
you're not excited about

spending eternity
with my parents

but, you know,
it's not going to be like now

when all they have to do
is cross the street.

I mean, they're going to have
to bust out of their coffins

and tunnel through the dirt...

...you know, aah...
just to get to our coffin.

And then they're,
you know, banging...

And we could pretend
we're not even there.

Shut up! Shut up!
Just stop it!

Stop talking about coffins.

So you want to do cremation
with me?

Ray, you're supposed to be
having a mid-life crisis

not an end-of-life crisis.

Hey, look, don't tell me how to
have a mid-life crisis, okay?

- What would you know about it?
- Because I've already had mine.

Really?

Yes, a while ago.

Oh. Was that the perm?

- No.
- 'Cause that didn't look good.

It was two years ago.

Well, you never acted like you
were having a mid-life crisis.

Ray, look at me.

I'm rubbing cream on my hands.

Do you know why
I'm rubbing cream on my hands?

Because it's hand cream?

No, because my skin isn't as
soft and smooth

as it used to be.
Have you noticed?

- I didn't wanna say anything--
- Shut up, Ray.

That is why every night
I take this cream...

and desperately try
to turn back the clock.

And even though I know
this is a losing battle

I still do it anyway.

That is how you have
a proper mid-life crisis.

You do not start planning
your death.

You go into denial
like a normal person.

- Give me your shoes.
- What?

Give me your shoes.

Alright, but I think my shoes
are soft enough.

Just give them to me.

When you started going all nuts
about the height thing...

...I bought these as a joke.

But now... I think
they're actually going to help.

- So stick these on.
- Oh, come on.

These aren't gonna do anything.

Just.. You wanna be 6 feet tall?
Put them on.

Well.. I'm not wearing lifts.

They're not lifts.
They're extra-thick Odor-Eaters.

Two birds with one stone.

Look, this doesn't really mean
I'm 6 feet tall.

Well, hey, this cream doesn't
mean my hands are any softer

than they used to be.

I don't know. I'm talking
about death, here, okay?

You really think some cheap
insoles are gonna

change my outlook and...
These are kind of bouncy.

Oh, yeah, little spring
in your step there, young man?

Yeah, whatever. Come on,
who am I really fooling here?

Hey, you only got to fool
one person.

And if I recall,
that person once asked me

if Jell-O was a fruit.

Yeah. Yeah.

Listen, you do
whatever you need to do.

As for me, I'm going to put
these tea bags

on my puffy eyes
and dream about

my bed-and-breakfast
by the lake.

Good night.

Hey, can you put these
in sneakers?

Put them anywhere you want.

Ha-ha!

Feeling tall and smelling good.

Idiot.

Frank, you want your ice cream
or not?

He's not here, ma.

- Where did he go?
- I don't know.

He said Ray got him thinking.

- Ray got him thinking?
- Yeah, you believe that?
