Scene: A few hours earlier at Claire & Phil’s house

Phil: There he is! Big day’s coming up. What do you want for your birthday, big god?

Luke: It’s okay; I’m good [1]

Phil: Come on. The sky’s the limit. Dream big, my bo y. [2]

Luke: Well, I guess I could use a belt. [3]

Claire: A belt?

Luke: Yeah, you’re right. I don’t need it. The extension cord works pretty well. [4]

Phil: I feel terrible.

Claire: Oh (5)

Phil: We’ve got to do something.

Claire: Yeah… Um, well, you know the family is gonna be together for Thanksgiving for the first time in I-don’t-even-know-how-long, so…

Phil: I am so with you. [6] We should blow this out and throw Luke the best birthday party of all time.

Claire: Yes! Yes, we’ll order a whole bunch of p izzas and, and then set up an arts and crafts table.[7]

Phil: A what?

Claire: Y-yeah, a crafts table! You know, everybody… gathers around and they make stuff and then bam! They’ve got their own party favors. [8]

Phil:Sorry, I fell asleep while you were describing the most boring party ever. [9](Gets hit by Claire) Ow!

Scene: Cameron & Mitchell’s house

Cameron: See you in a few hours.

Phil: Yeah. Thanks again karaoke machine. I’ll give it back to you right after the party.[10] Cameron: That’ll be great.

Mitchell:Please don’t. I beg you. Don’t… don’t bring it back.

Phil: (whispers back) Oh. [11]

Cameron: Hey Phil. Are, uh, you getting a clown for today?

Phil: Oh… no. Luke, uh, Luke’s not much of a clown fan.[12]

Cameron: …Really?

Phil: Yeah, he never liked them. [13]

Cameron: Has he ever seen a good one?

Phil: Has… has anyone? Really, so… thanks again.[14]

Cameron: See you later. (after Phil is gone)No clown? No… no clown?

Mitchell: Let it go.

Cameron: Who throws a party without a clown?

Mitchell: Since t he later 30s, I’d say most people.[15]

Cameron: You know what? We haven’t gotten Luke a present yet. Maybe a clown could be our present.

Mitchell: Cameron, Cameron… If Phil and Claire wanted to get Luke a clown, they would have. But this is not our party. [16]

Cameron: But-

Mitchell: This is not. Our. Party.

Cameron: But I ju… fine. What would you suggest we get him then?

Mitchell: Mhhh, get him a gift card.

Cameron: …A gift card?

Mitchell: Yeah.

Cameron: Who hurt you? [17]

Scene: Jay & Gloria’s house

Jay: Hey Gloria, you got any idea how to wrap one of these things?

Gloria: Is that a crossbow?

Jay: Yeah. Am I the greatest grandpa in the world or what? [18]

Gloria: We can’t give Luke a crossbow. He pokes himself in the eye every time he uses a straw. [19] Jay: Are you kidding? I used to have one when I was his age. My dad used to give me a quarter for every crow I bagged.

Gloria: And I used to have a machete. But times have changed.

Jay: He’ll be fine.[20]I’ll teach him how to use it.(Manny enters) Hey pa l. How’s it going? Manny: Am I charming?

Jay: Oh boy…

Gloria: Of course you’re charming![21] Who said you were not charming?

Manny: No one. But there is a girl at my school and I want her to like me. I need your advice, Jay. Jay: Really?

Manny: She’s gonna be at Luke’s party.

Jay: Well, I’m… a little thrown. I mean, you don’t usually come to me for advice. [22]

Manny: Well, this is one area in which you’ve done pretty well. [23]

Gloria: He has a point.

Manny: I’ve tried everything to get her attention: op ening doors, having her milk sent over in the cafeteria… but nothing’s worked.[24]

Jay: Here’s the deal: girls don’t go for all that romantic stuff. They go for power and success, and sine you don’t have either one of those things, you’re gonna be the fun ny guy. [25]

Scene: A few hours earlier outside Claire & Phil’s house

Claire: Sweety, that’s a rock wall. Is that even safe? Oh my god.

Phil: Honey, relax. (To guy setting up rock wall) Hey, has anyone ever gotten hurt on one of these things?

Guy: I dunno, man. It’s my first day.[26]

Phil: See? They wouldn’t let the new guy do it if it was-[27]

Claire: That did not make me feel better.

Phil: Don’t worry. I signed, like, a hundred releases.[28]

Claire: When did we decide all this? I… I think it’s too much.

Phil: See, I knew you’d say that. That’s why I didn’t tell you, so just relax. Grab a snow cone.[29] Claire: There’s a snow cone machine?

Phil: Yeah.

Hayley: Mom, just so you know, Dylan can’t have mayonnaise.[30]

Claire: That’s random. Why are you tell ing me that?

Hayley: Uh, ’cause he’s coming to the party?

Claire: Is that absolutely necessary? [31]
