Listening Day 9


<Jay> How you doing? Hi, beautiful.

Good to see you.

<Claire> Let me guess. Game's on?

<Jay> Just started.

<Phil> Hey. For you. It's nice to see you, Gloria.

<Gloria> Two times today.

<Phil> Okay.

Phil. She means we've seen them two times today.

Okay. Everybody, the food's in there, the drinks are in there, I'll be in here.

<Phil> Hold on, Jay. I think we should address the elephant in the room. Luke. Manny. Bring it in. Come on. Huddle up. Football.

Now, in light of what happened at school today, if you have any feelings you'd like to express, I think this is the proper forum.

<Jay> For God's sake. All right, both of you. Now, in this family, do we kick and punch each other, or do we love each other?

Love each other.

<Jay> That's right. I'll be in the den.

<Claire> So I brought dessert.

<Gloria> Okay. Thank you. I make pie, too.

<Claire> You can never have too many pies, right?

<Phil> Everybody, take a deep breath. Let's think about getting real.

<Claire> Phil, no.

<Gloria> Why "Phil, no"? What is Phil doing?

<Phil> I'm just gonna say it... There's tension between you two. Bam! It's out there.

<Claire> I'm gonna kill you.

<Gloria> I think he's right. And I think we should talk about it.

<Phil> That's what I'm talkin' 'bout... You two talking... 'bout it.
