- all right. Now that the popsicle's melted,

We've got ourselves a tongue depressor.

- I wanted you to look at these cold sores.

I get them when I'm stressed out.

- nothing to be ashamed of.

I get them from prostitutes.

- I just had a hard couple months.

Work has been crazy,

And I went through a bad breakup.

And then there was this plastic bag

That represented my death--

- sounds like you could use a little r&r...

Rum and ritalin.

- actually, I was hoping you'd just have an ointment

For my mouth. - gross.

- 'cause I'm dealing with the stress thing.

Over the break, I'm renting a cottage

Out in the hamptons.

There's just four things I want to do this summer--

Be outdoors, wear shapeless clothing,

Do some mindless activity like gardening,

And learn spanish.

- there are four things I want to do this summer.

But they're roommates, so it's tricky.

All right, here is a prescription

For your cold sores,

And here's a blank one for the weekend.

Now, one final thing.

Why aren't you wearing pants?

- the other doctor told me to take them off.

- other doctor?

[Laughs] that's my brother randy.

Tomorrow he's going to jail for the rest of his life.

[Chuckles] good one, randy!

Hey, you want to go to taco bell for lunch?

[Knock on door]

- hey... - stop right there.

I know that people are feeling sorry for me

Because my wife was kidnapped by kim jong-il.

- I know... - but I do not need your pity.

And I am tired of hearing that tone of voice.

- aw... - hey...

- hey, buddy...

- hey, I know what you're going through.

I once kidnapped a woman.

- I know...

- stop talking like that, lemon. - I'm trying to,

But I'm kind of locked in, sweetie.

The voice is controlling me now.

Help me?

- look, obviously this has been difficult.

I'm not sleeping.

Last night I sat in front of the tv

And ate an entire carton of foie gras.

I can hardly drink my morning shower scotch.

I miss avery.

It's the little things I miss most.

On a day like this,

We would go to strawberry fields in central park

And kick hippies' hacky sacks into the bushes.

- look, you need to reset and try to feel normal again.

- normal? I don't know what normal is anymore.

- "normal" is a woman and a woman

Getting married and having a child.

- what? - is me being a bummer

Helping you feel like your old self?

- keep going. - bush is a war criminal!

There's so much texting going on these days

And no communicating.

Carbon tax!

- please leave!

- that's the spirit.

Well, I'm off.

Have a good summer, jenna. - oh, I will.

During halftime at the wool bowl?

It was on espn-34.

They're now naming me the new celebrity face of wool.

- how exciting!

Every year my aunt sends me a wool sweater for christmas.

We get it, aunt alice. You're a sheep.

- also, this is very lucrative.

Paul and I can finally buy that timeshare in betasten bos,

Amsterdam's premier private sex garden.

They have genetically altered men there

With minotaur heads that chase you through the brambles.

- okay. Well, good-bye,

My closest female friend.

Oh, my god.

The season's over. Why are you losers still here?

- final melee, liz.

It's the last game of the season

And no one wants to lose.

- you have no summer plans?

- well, david eggers and I are designing a new font.

- ugh, shut up.

Frank, you have a girlfriend.

- and lynn wants me to give up video games

'Cause she thinks I need to grow up.

How's this for growing up?

Last night for dinner

I put milk in my apple jacks.

- ha! I distracted you, and you died.

Game over. - no, I shot my bazooka

At the ground to kill myself 'cause toofer had me cornered.

Now I respawn and start over.

- so you're killing yourself

Rather than let someone else win?

- that's why everyone has zero kills

And we've been playing for 18 hours.

- I'm wearing a diaper, like a baby would.

- wow. I can't wait to get out of here.

For three months. It's gonna be glorious.

Paul and I are in a committed relationship.

Paul is a gender-dysmorphic bigenitalian pansexualle.

- I see.

Maybe we should take a few days and think about this.

I never see them again.

Let's say dinner tomorrow night at your place.

I'll bring my wife.

- I should warn you...

This had better be a very normal dinner.

No hijinks, no farce, and not just for the sake

Of your relationship with the national wool council,

But for the sake of my wife,

Whose parents were killed in front of her

While an episode of three's company was--

You know what? I'll let her tell the story at dinner.

Wool-come, jenna.

- sherry, who was at the door?

Kenneth, what are you doing?

- well, I know your wife was kidnapped

By some convenience store owners,

And I'm real sorry about that.

- I'm not looking for pity.

- pity? Oh, sir, back in stone mountain,

People lose their spouses all the time.

Mumps, hill people attacks,

Cave collapses, both business and residential.

Continuing my list...

- kenneth, what do you want?

- when someone needs help,

We don't waste time feeling sorry for 'em.

We help them.

And you seem like you could use a home-cooked meal.

- [inhales]

Oh, that smells delicious.

- it's an old parcell family recipe.

But I like to replace the union soldier meat

With boiled potatoes.

- I haven't eaten at this table

Since avery's been gone.

That was her chair.

Liz? It's tracy! From work!

- what are you doing here?

- I just bought everything around this house.

It's supposed to be a nice area,

Except for the "new element" everyone keeps talking about.

Look, I got a long night

Of shooting guns in the air ahead of me.

Do you mind if I take a nap here?

- of course! You're my neighbor.

I wanted a normal summer, and chaos is my normal.

- ah, kenneth.

Thank you for dinner last night.

It was nice to hear a woman's laugh

In the house again.

- [laughs]

You're bad.

- I thought maybe we could do it again tonight.

- oh, sir, I'd love to, but I can't.

- why not? - well, I have to work.

Now that the crew is gone,

I like to give everything a good spring cleaning,

Starting in the bathroom.

There's a lot of drawings

Of ms. Maroney eating celery

That men are giving to her with their hips.

- I see.

Well, another time, perhaps.

I'll just be alone...

In a house full of memories.

- my house is full of white cockroaches.

[Door slams shut] - hi, sweetie!

- I got you an early anniversary present.

It's a new leash for when I walk you through the park

Like a dog. - [gasps]

- the weather's supposed to be nice and muddy tomorrow...

What's wrong? - look...

I'm the face of wool now.

I need to maintain a certain image.

- so, what, we can't be ourselves?

- just not in public.

We can do whatever we want here.

Except tonight.

Mr. Gremby is coming over for dinner.

- eugene gremby from the wool council?

Tonight? - I just want him to meet you

And see us together.

Then he'll get it. He'll understand what we have.

But the grembys are pretty conservative.

Maybe you should change.

- really? This is a conservative top, jenna.

And I hate to be the stereotypical man,

But this is my home and I wanna wear this blouse.

- paul, please. You need to change.

- okay, I'll change.

And I'll cancel the sitter for tonight,

Tell him he won't need to come sit on us after all.

- oh, you just made a very dangerous enemy, kenneth.

- thanks for the heads-up, jonathan.

Do you wanna come to my birthday party?

What are you doing? That's my job.

- uh, jonathan volunteered to clean up

So you could come over again tonight, right, jonathan?

- but, sir, it's not just the bathrooms

That need cleaning.

- that's why jonathan's family is here.

Uh, liddy goes down at 7:00, so I'll see you then.

- oh, my.

[Gunshots]

[Door creaks open]

- liz lemon.

- any idea when your party will be over, tray?

- the party hasn't started.

That's just the guys setting up.

Could I borrow a cup of sugar?

I'm trying to get a hummingbird

To drink out of my penis.

- I can't do this, tracy.

This is supposed to be my vacation.

I wanted to spend it learning spanish,

Not living next door to you.

I give up. Of course I'm not allowed to be a human being.

- oh, I'm sorry.

You didn't wanna live next door to your friend

After all I've done for you?

How many times have I come over and painted your apartment?

- three! And by the way, stop doing that.

- or maybe you're saying we're not friends.

That's fine.

I don't think it'll affect my behavior next season.

[Radio static]

- "the sad woman has been trapped by the idiot."

La mujer triste... [Voice distorted]

- we're friends.

Next year's gonna be fine,

'Cause we're good friends.

We're sp-- spending the summer together.

- great! I'll come over tomorrow morning!

- okay, well,

Since you've just been staring at me like that

For the last 20 minutes,

I'm gonna scoot on out of here.

- don't go, avery.

Uh, I mean kenneth.

- [laughing] sir.

You called me "avery."

That's your kidnapped wife's name.

What a coincidence!

- I haven't slept in days.

I'm not really feeling like myself.

You know, in the evening,

Avery and I would sit together and talk.

It was a nice way to unwind.

- well, I bet you miss...

- put on these earrings.

So... Tell me about your day.

- well, I got a soft yes from jonathan

About my birthday party.

Then I went to a very uncomfortable dinner.

- do you know what I did today?

Tried to be strong, sat alone with my thoughts,

Then...

I went to a wonderful dinner.

- then the dinner ended?

- [softly] no.

- so, paul, what do you do?

- I am in the restaurant business,

And I really love...

Golf-playing.

- is that so? What's your handicap?

- oh, well, I don't have one myself,

But I do like a girl with a limp.

[Laughter]

- oh, paul.

- so, mrs. Gremby,

You're also named "eugene"?

- oh, no, dear. It's "u" period "jean."

My first name is u. Jean

With a "u."

- [laughs]

- [chuckles]

- oh, that's a nice blouse.

It definitely goes with your eyes,

Don't you think, jenna?

- golf, blouses.

I'm just so impressed with how normal

This dinner has been.

Very wool!

[Bang on door]

- greetings, slaves!

Who's ready to get sat on?

- uh, sir, I don't know who you are,

But you are not wanted here.

Didn't you get my text?

- I thought it was part of the game.

- we are good people

Who have no interest in being sat on!

So don't spew your statistics

On the health benefits of weekly sittings

Or its wide acceptance in eastern cultures.

- paul. - we're normal!

And being normal is american,

And it's respectable, and it makes us...

Happy.

Now get out of here.

[Door slams shut]

- well done, sir. Bravo.

You handled that pervert with aplomb.

Very wool.

- [claps]

- to tomorrow's photo shoot and wool.

- shh! Shh, shh, shh.

- unbelievable. You're still here.

- it's still zero, zero, zero.

- to zero.

I did it.

I spoke.

- this didn't get mailed.

- what are you doing here?

Shouldn't you be out in the hamptons

Not getting invited to stuff?

- I came back for the day.

Tracy lives next door to me.

I can't leave, I can't stay.

I'm trapped.

- speaking of trapped, I got you, lutz!

- nope, grenade.

Blowing myself up.

- oh, my god.

That's what I have to do.

I canbe a normal person.

I have to blow myself up.

No, your honor, I'm not disputing the fine.

I'm refusing to pay it.

Grenade, respawn.

- miss--I mean, ma'am, read the fine print.

If you don't pay, I can sentence you to

Up to three weeks of community service.

- how about three months?

This is a sham, your dis-honor.

Nay, a mockery!

I've put the system on trial.

You can't handle the truth.

I'm out of order? You're out of order.

Victor sifuentes! Hoo-ah!

- gavel, gavel, gavel!

I lost my gavel over the weekend,

But it doesn't mean you can talk to me like that.

- talk to who? I just see an empty robe.

- do you honestly not see me, or are you being rude?

- I am being rude. - that's it.

Twelve weeks of community service.

You'll spend your whole summer picking up trash.

Gavel, gavel, gavel!

- freedom!

For me. Probably not you guys.

- mr. Donaghy, where are my clothes?

- sherry must've put them in the wash

While you were showering.

Now, give us a twirl.

- this is not right, sir.

- now, what do you say you put on some of avery's perfume

And we head over to strawberry fields

And whip pennies at the drum circle?

- I don't like to swear, sir, but, no, thank you.

Now, maybe I haven't had a wife who was kidnapped,

But I have seen the brady bunch

Where tiger runs away.

We've all been through some bad stuff, mr. Donaghy.

- I had the perfect woman.

Gorgeous.

Brilliant.

Always let me be the hat in monopoly.

Why is this happening to me?

God, are you punishing me

Because my hair is better than yours?

- all right, sir, enough.

You wanted me to be mrs. Donaghy?

Well, I know mrs. Donaghy, and she is mean.

- she once made rahm emanuel cry in an airport lounge.

- so fine. I will be mrs. Donaghy.

And I'm gonna say...

Listen to me, jack.

You don't want people to pity you?

Well, they should, because you're pitiful.

You think you're all alone. "Boo-hoo, why can't my life

Be the way it was?"

Well, it can't.

And you're not alone. You have a daughter

You should be spending time with

Instead of being weird to kenneth.

He may be a chinless piece of human garbage,

But he will never fill the void

That I left behind.

Oh, look, here he comes now.

He's gonna ask me to go to his birthday party.

"Hi, 'mrs. Dongy.'

You wan' come on down my birfday party?"

No, I can't, but I know jack can.

- kenneth, kenneth, I get it.

Uh, sherry? Put liddy's baby pantsuit on.

I'm taking her to work with me today.

- all right, mr. Donaghy.

- and, uh, thank you.

Avery.

- here's to you, jenna maroney.

Even with your back to me,

I can definitely tell it's you.

- [high-pitched voice] I'll turn around later.

- perfect. I'll keep talking.

Mm, wool.

You know, my wife u. Jean is out of town

Visiting her parents' graves.

Maybe we could meet later for a drink

And you could show me your front.

- we could do that...

[Regular voice] now!

- paul?

- and jenna.

- oh, my god!

- I'm finally taking a stand...

After all these days.

You wanted us to be normal.

Well, this is our normal,

And this is what we think of your morality clause.

Both: [moaning]

- mm, give mommy some beard.

- ugh!

- oh, you got some crumbs in here.

- oh, eat it.

- good god! Lemon?

Liddy, say "good god, lemon."

- goo gah, lem.

- I did it, jack. I got my dream vacation!

- you're on a chain gang.

- I'm outdoors, I'm wearing comfortable clothes,

I'm gardening, and I'm learning spanish!

- [speaking Spanish]

- [speaking Spanish]

- uh, liddy and I just went to strawberry fields,

Where she spat up on a white lady's dreads.

It's nice to see that we're back

To our version of normal.

[Barking, sniffing]

- jenna? - oh, jenna, no.

- there you are! Bad dog!

You'll go in the crate tonight.

- grr. - ew.

- hey, jack. Hey, liz.

- [barks] - ow!

- fore!

Hey, guys!

It's me! Tracy! The black guy from work.

- what are you doing?

- I hooked a ball onto a truck

On the long island expressway.

And tracy jordan does not take mulligans.

Good thing you had to move out of that house.

Some idiot rammed his boat that I was driving into it.

- [giggling]

- [chuckles]

- you see all the good that is in them,

How much capacity for love?

Yes, I know.

I just need more time with them.

Give me more time, jacob,

I beg of you!

- nope, I see you. I'm killing myself.
