501 You know, our mothers were smart. 502 They didn't get us nannies or put us in day care because they knew if they did, we'd find out 503 there are other women out there who are better mothers than they were. 504 You know, I had a nanny for a while growing up -- Mrs. Muntz. 505 You had a nanny? 506 Well, actually, she was more like a court-appointed social worker. 507 My mom did a little time. 508 She had a thing for bourbon and shoplifting. 509 Oh. Sorry. 510 Oh, Muntz was a hard-ass --no mercy. 511 In fact, she was such a disciplinarian that when my mom made parole, 512 I was actually happy to see her. 513 Really? 514 Yeah. 515 Lesser of two evils. 516 Huh. 517 Anyway, I got to find a key. 518 - See you later. - Bye. 519 Thanks for your help with Zach before. 520 Oh, it's my pleasure. 521 I hope he comes out of this okay. 522 He's a little squirrelly, but seems like a good kid. 523 Yeah. 524 So how's Julie taking all this? 525 Not well. 526 She accused me of not being a good mother. 527 Oh, you're a great mom. 528 Well, she was sort of right. 529 After my divorce, I really leaned on her a lot. 530 Seems natural. 531 And I still kind of do it. 532 I just want somebody to talk to about all my adult stuff, and she's right there, 533 and she just acts so mature. I forget she's 13. 534 Well, the good news is that from now on, 535 if you ever want to talk to somebody about grown-up stuff, you got me. 536 Well, I can't talk to you about everything. 537 Oh. 538 What if I want to talk about the big crush I have on the plumber that lives across the street? 539 Big crush, huh? 540 Oh, yeah. 541 Wow, you'd have to tell me more. 542 Well, um... he's got a smile that's to die for, 543 and don't get me started on his tattoo. 544 Thanks. 545 Oh, Bree. 546 What a-a nice surprise. 547 Would you like to come in? 548 Well, that depends. 549 Are you having an affair with my husband? 550 Would you like some more potatoes? |
