Hello.

What?
Are those moving boxes?

Is somebody moving out?!
Let me help.

No. No.

It's stuff
I was storing here

because I didn't have room
in my apartment,

but now since I'm moving
into Neville's place,

I got to figure out
what to bring.

No one
ever moves out.

Well, you make it
too nice.

Moldy shower curtains,

four different kinds
of soap chunks smashed into one.

Nobody's leaving that.

Hey!
You look nice.

I'm meeting some friends
at the bar for happy hour.

Are they meeting you
in your coat?

'Cause it seems like
that's where all the
food and drinks are.

Well, even happy-hour prices
are kind of high.

Usually, I'll flirt with a guy
so he buys me drinks,

and then I'll shimmy out the
bathroom window and head home,

but the place tonight
is at a rooftop bar,

and I don't want to fall 20
stories for a pumpkin pale ale.

There's a lot of things
you can take from this house --

books, vegetables,
Jackie.

But if you think I'm spending
the rest of my night

with these people sober,
you are sadly mistaken.

Gimme.

Hm!

Gimme.

I guess I'm back
to flirting for drinks.

You're not getting
any younger. I'd go.

So how come it took you so long
to move in with Neville?

He's an old-fashioned guy.

He felt like living together
before marriage

would make God cry.

And yet he had no problem
with all the premarital sex.

Single guys have
their own religion.

Oh, I tell ya, I tell ya,
God would be inconsolable

if he saw what we were doing
every night

before I said bye-bye
and headed home.

Are you excited to be
moving in with your fella?

Oh. Yeah.
Absolutely.

This is the first time
I'm living with somebody

because we want to
be together, you know?

Not because he stole my key
while I was asleep

and made a copy
at Home Depot.

Oh, my God.

There's stuff from
all different parts

of my life
in these things.

[ Chuckles ]

Oh, my God!
My old service taser!

I was looking for this
the last time my mom visited.

Wait! This was just sitting
in the closet for years?

Relax. It was in a box.
It was taped shut.

Oh, there you go.

No kid has ever gotten
through Scotch tape.

That's why they use it on
liquor cabinets and pool gates.

Wow. Well, no wonder
my box was so heavy.

It's filled with books.

Copies of the book
I self-published,

"Lessons from a Life Coach."

How many of these
did you sell?

Oh, that's not important.

If I helped
one person --

Got it. One.

Hey! You got Roseanne's
plastic cow creamer.

[ Laughs ]
She spent like eight years

looking all over the place
for this thing.

I know.
You know what?

Sometimes I even
helped her look for it.

I was gonna slip it into
her casket at the funeral,

but then I thought
I can't let go of that memory

of watching her wander
through the house going,

"Where is that
damn thing?"

[ Laughs ]

You know, for
a former life coach,

you're kinda sadistic.

[ Door opens ]

[ Television turns on ]

Hey.
Hmm.

Why do you look so happy?
You know where you are, right?

[ Chuckles ]

I also know where
we're going tonight.

I got tickets to that
new Italian movie.

The one with the sex, huh?
And the food?

And the screaming
and the smoking and the --

Well, you know.
An Italian movie.

Yeah, if I wanted all that,
I'd just hang out

in the alley
behind the high school.

And to keep the
international theme going,

I got a reservation
at the best French restaurant

in Kane County --
Le Maître D'.

You know why they call it that,
don't you?

The last restaurant
was called Le Maître D'

and they didn't feel like
changing the sign.

Well, that is so sweet,

but you don't have to do
all that for me.

Oh, come on.
It's gonna be fun.

You know
what else is fun?

Getting cozy and snuggling up
right here on the couch.

And you know what?

We will take control of the
remote for the whole night.

Dan: No, you won't!
Yes, we will!

Alright, well,
what about dinner?

I already
took care of it.

At some point, Kenny will be
dropping a contactless delivery

of vegan enchiladas
right at our doorstep.

Oh, he's pulling
out of a weed store,

so we might not get
all of our food,

but some of it's
gotta get here.

Well, we can still have
an international night of sorts,

I guess, and before we go
to our Italian movie,

Kenny will be high
on Jamaican kush,

and then
we'll offend Mexico

by eating what you pretend
are enchiladas.

I am down
with all of that,

except for
one small tweak.

We change
going to a movie

to not going
to a freakin' movie --

Pardon my French. Oh, wait.
There's your international.

-- Captions by VITA --

"The Conners" is recorded

in front of
a live studio audience.

Hmm.

What happened?

Uh, you fell asleep
just as Mrs. Doubtfire's

[laughing] fake boobs
caught fire from the stove.

[ Sighs ] I've seen that movie
three times.

Fiery boobs are funny
maybe twice.

Look,
I can't waste my life

sleeping on this couch
anymore, you know?

I need some stimulation,
some things that make me think.

Geez. Since when did
everything have to be

so highbrow,
artsy-fartsy for you?

We've always sat around
and vegged out on the couch.

Yeah, but I --
[ Groans ]

I need to be around
creativity, you know?

I-I-I don't write anymore,

and I work at a hardware store
all day long.

And your dad went on
the other day for 20 minutes

about toggle bolts
versus anchor bolts,

and at one point, I looked
over at the rat poison

and I was like, "Oh, man!
If only I had the guts."

Well, I'm --
I'm so sorry.

You know, I didn't know
that you still missed

the magazine so much.
Yeah.

Okay. How is this?

Let's check the guide
for a foreign movie

that we can watch
tomorrow night,

and we can eat
a foreign snack.

Popcornopolis.
That's Greek, right?

You're not listening to me,
okay?

There's things going on
out there

that I want to be a part of.

Okay, fine.

I-I mean, I want you to be
happy, so pick --

pick something you want to do.
Anything.

Great. Okay.

Uh, they're doing
"Romeo and Juliet"

at The Pickled Playhouse
in Elk Grove Village

this weekend.
Absolutely not.

Every one of those words
sounds awful.

[ Chuckles ]
Come on. It's fun.

Look, one of
the cast members

has to do shots every five
minutes until they're drunk,

and then they start screwing up
their lines and improvising,

and the -- the whole play
becomes something else entirely.

Does it become
something I want to watch?

[ Both laugh ]

Look, I'm going,
with or without you.

Okay. Fine. I'll go.

But I don't understand why
we can't just grab some beers

and rent
"The Lion King."

That's like "Hamlet"
with a gassy warthog.

Neville: I really like
that cow creamer.

Jackie: Yeah, I just hope it
goes with the rest of the stuff

that you got in the --
[ Pig snorts ]

Well, the...

cow's gonna
fit right in.

What's all this about?

These are guys
that need extra care.

I usually stay late
at the clinic for that,

but I want us to be able
to spend time together,

so I just
brought them home.

Are any of these animals
dangerous?

Oh. Gosh, no.
[ Chuckles ]

Depends on
what you mean by that.

Well, like,
is that gonna get out

and try and eat me
while I'm sleeping?

No, no, no.
These are all pets.

Although the pig was pulled out
of the slaughterhouse line

at the last minute, so
sometimes he screams at night.

So, um, this is all probably
gonna be for probably,

like -- like,
probably like a week?

Yeah, maybe, but now
that we're living together,

I want us to establish a good
work-life balance, you know?

I know it's a little
Doctor Dolittle-y,

but there will probably
be some patients here

for the foreseeable future.

Oh. Okay.

[ Pig squeals ]
Wow.

Hm. [ Chuckles ]

[ Macaw squawks ]

Oh, there's
that thing, too.

Oh, man. Yeah.

That'll probably
go on all night [chuckles]

so I think somebody
probably needs some codeine.

Yeah.
[ Chuckles nervously ]

I think
that's Mrs. Dolittle!

Macaw: Where's my doctor?
I need a doctor.

Sounds like somebody
lives with a hypochondriac.

And you need to go...there.

[ Pig grunts ]

Hey, hey!
I live here, too, okay?

Oh, you want it
over here?

There.

[ Pig grunts ]
Give it a rest.

You've been screaming
all night long.

We've all been through stuff!
Move on!

[ Knock on door ]

Macaw: Where's my doctor?
Uh-oh. I need a doctor.

And suddenly it was night.

Hey!
Hey.

I brought the rest
of your life-coach books.

Oh.
I thought the sewer
was backing up outside,

but the smell
is coming from in here.

Yeah, the vet tech guy
who cleans up,

he's running
a little late.

I wanted to light
a scented candle,

but I think there's too
much methane in this room.

What is happening here?

Oh, it's actually
kind of romantic.

Neville's bringing home
his patients

that need extra care
at night

so he can spend
more time with me.

Maybe it's worth spending
a little less time with him

not to have to watch that lizard
eat the skin he just shed.

Oh, no, no.
It's not that bad.

He's actually
really friendly.

Oh.
Don't reach in, though.

He's real attached
to that dead skin.

If you touch it,
he moves like lightning.

[ Gasps ]

You have to put a stop
to this right now!

You tell Neville
this is your house, too.

Macaw:
Uh-oh! I need a doctor!

You're supposed to
be asleep!

[ Pig grunts,
macaw squawks ]

It's like living
in a See 'N Say.

I'm just not comfortable
telling Neville

what he can do
in his own house.

I mean, you know,
this happens all the time.

You move in with a guy,
and he's got an old recliner

or a traumatized pig
with night terrors,

and, y-you know,
you just live with it.

Talk to your husband!

Yeah, I guess
you're right.

Hey, while you're here,
I promised Neville

I would give Betsy
a suppository.

I need you
to hold her back legs.

Which one's Betsy?

If I tell you,
you won't do it.

Romeo: [ Slurring ] Thy kinsmen
are no stop to me...

Okay. Now, Romeo's had
14 shots in an hour.

Now it's gonna get
crazy.

This is the high culture you
were so desperately craving?

[ Laughs ]

With love's light wings

did I o'er-perch
these walls, that --

That's it.
I'm tapping out.

[ Laughs ]

We can tap out?
Cool. Let's go.

No, no. It's not over.
This is the best part.

This is when he's
gonna make some poor fool

take his place onstage.

You're up,
my good man!

[ Applause ]

Yeah!

I shall not profess love
to such an unworthy suitor.

I've been on "CSI: New Orleans."
I'm out.

Oh.

We need a Juliet!

You!

The one trying to make yourself
as small as possible.

You're Juliet.

[ Audience chanting "Juliet!" ]

Oh, no, no, no.
Pick somebody else, please.

Oh, come on.
Loosen up. Come on.

Be hilariously bad, and
everyone will have a good laugh.

Oh, now that I know I'll be
humiliated, I'd love to stay.

Oh, well, I'm sorry
it's not as exciting

as checking your Jitterbug
for messages

and falling asleep
to "Blue Bloods."

Oh, so I'm old now?

You're becoming
your father.

No, my father would have
never allowed himself

to be dragged here.

You said you wanted
to make me happy.

Yeah, well,
that was a mistake

that I will never
be making again.

You know what? I'm done
going out altogether.

Look out, Romeo.

Where is this opening?!

Where's Ben?

Uh, he's staying
at his place tonight.

Ohh.

Whatever it is,
work it out.

I'm not building you two a house
just to destroy my health.

My hammer hand
is frozen into a shape

that only works
for holding a beer.

I think we can both agree
that you have a beer hand

that occasionally
holds a hammer.

Yeah, but it's no good
for cooking and cleaning,

so I reckon you two squatters
will have to help with that.

Oh.

Oh, reach me the remote,
would ya?

Oh. Damn it.
I got a crick.

Oh.
Lean away from it.

Okay.

There we go.
Oh, yeah.

Thank you.

There you go.
Okay.

Man: ...had a hose
that didn't kink

and leak every time
you tried to use it?

Oh, you know, you can
skip the commercials.

I kinda like 'em.

Yeah.
Actually, I do, too.

...as soon as you
turn the water...

Oh, I wouldn't mind
having one of those hoses

that shrivels up when
you turn the water off.

That's cool.

I'd buy one if I could
get two for the same price.

Wait for it.

Two for the price of one!

Nice!
Nice!

Announcer:
...in the forecourt...

Uh-oh.

What?

Well,
Ben might be right.

He says
I'm becoming you.

Oh, which me?

The devil-may-care man
about town...

or the guy that coasts
downhill to save gas?

Well, he -- he thinks
I'm getting old and boring.

Oh, it sounds like
the coasting guy.

Look, there's
no shame in that.

You have a family,
you work hard,

and eventually,
your couch becomes

your big, cushiony friend
that really gets you.

But, I mean,
is that so bad?

Not if you're married to
one of those anti-couchers

that believes the hype.

What hype?

That there's a whole
interesting world out there.

Louise badgers me to get out
and listen to live music

or go to some art fair.

I bitch about it the whole time,
but the truth is,

I'm really happy
to have someone in my life

to pull me off
of this couch sometime.

Wow. So you love Louise
more than this couch.

That is not
where my money was.

Otherwise, you realize
life has passed you by

and you're not
really living it.

**

[ Television playing ]

Oh. [ Chuckles ]
I'll get him to move.

Alfonso just does that
to get my attention.

He's such a diva.

Hey, Neville, how about

let's turn off the TV
and just talk?

Sure. Yeah.

While we are talking,

I am going to give this guy
a little me time.

You know, ferrets are one
of the few animals that can go

into a rabbit hole head-first
and come out head-first.

One conversation ends,
another begins.

Neville, um, I get that you're
bringing all these guys home

because you want to
spend more time with me,

but you're not really
spending more time with me.

Oh. [ Scoffs ]

Didn't we have fun
cleaning the earwax

out of that chinchilla
together?

Well, I thought Fernando
was a little more bitey

than appreciative,
but the point is

that we're spending a lot
of time with the animals

and we're not getting
any private time.

I know, but all this keeps life
pretty interesting, doesn't it?

Interesting is a puppy.

All this -- This is
a documentary that ends

with the neighbors going,
"Well, we saw that comin'."

We don't need all of this
to make our life interesting.

But maybe we do.

I don't understand.

When we were dating
and we ran out of things to say,

it was always just, "Goodbye.
See you tomorrow."

But you're the first person
I've actually ever lived with.

I -- [ Sighs ]

I don't know
if I'm interesting enough.

[ Gasps ] Neville!

I-If I run out of things to say,
you're just gonna see

this kind of boring,
awkward guy staring at you.

Are you kidding me?

You're, like, the most
interesting person that I know.

And do you honestly think
that I would stop loving you

if there's a lull
in the conversation?

Well, not if there's
an adorable ferret in my lap!

Okay, you don't have to worry
about silence with me.

If you don't have anything
to say, it's okay.

See?
I have nothing to say!

Silence doesn't mean
that there's something wrong.

It's like music,
you know?

There's the notes,
there's the space in between,

but you got to have them both
to make a beautiful song.

You think
we make good music?

Yeah, I do,
but we've got to get rid

of all of these
backup singers.

And I called the office.

Some of these guys
are just being boarded.

They're not even sick.
Neville!

You had me put a suppository
in a duck

that was, like,
basically on vacation.

She doesn't really need them.
She just likes them.

**

Ben: Hey.

Hey.

You sleep okay?

Yeah, yeah. Fine.

I just came by
to get your dad.

We're gonna finish up
some plumbing at the new house.

We have a working bathroom now,
but the walls aren't up,

so if you're
in the middle of things

and you see a car coming,
it's a lot of pressure.

Okay.
I'll just say it.

Um, I'm sorry about
what happened at the play.

Yeah, after you left,
they, uh --

they picked me
to play Juliet.

And I played her
more strong than pretty.

I'm sorry
I missed that...
[ Chuckles ]

...is something
you're supposed to say.

[ Laughs ]

Anyway, you're right. I-I --
Sometimes I need a little push

to get out of the house,
so thank you.

Oh.
I appreciate that.

Alright. So how's this?

We commit to going out
at least two nights a week.

Mm-hmm.

On my night,
we do an activity

that normal people do,

and on your night,

we do some pretentious,
insufferable artsy thing

that makes me wish
I was dead.

Okay, so I get some creativity
to feed my soul

and it annoys
the hell out of you?

Oh, I'm so in.

Okay.
Don't get excited.

I got some rules
about your night.

[ Groans ] Such as?

No audience participation
of any kind,

only one thing a year with
the word "festival" in it,

no cover bands...
[ Sighs ]

...and, no, I do not want to
"see all the cool 'merch.'"

But I love my "Hamilton"
three-corner hat.

And if you hadn't
worn it to bed,

we wouldn't be having
this conversation.

Well, what if I wear it
on my head next time?

**

[ Falsetto voice ]
All are punished, then this

of Juliet and her Romeo.

Ohh!

Hey, hey! That dagger's
not as happy as we are,

'cause you finally
stopped talking!

[ Laughter ]
Yeah, hey!

I was a better Juliet,
and I have a beard!

I had to help
give a duck a suppository,

and this is worse!

[ Normal voice ] That's my
family. They came to support me.

Hey!
