got him something for both of us okay I'm just really behind schedule so let's go [Music] can I ask you a question sure what well I was just wondering why did you hire an escort service you and Christine pretty um oh we are we are basically but um well my family doesn't know about it I mean they did at first but my parents were so unhappy about it just why he seems like a nice guy he is he is but uh come on he isn't Jewish hop in would you like me to drive you seem a little oh no thank you I'm fine oh wait a second uh so what are your parents like Orthodox oh Aldrin which which you know Chris obviously is not so we've been seeing each other on the sly for the past months wow I know sure you don't want me to drive no no no no no no I'm fine [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] oh that's okay I just have to pick up a bottle of wine this whole thing is so stupid but my parents well you know they're my parents my father he was sick last year my mother's been so tense I just I can't give them any grief right now the worst of it though was after I told them that I'd stop seeing Chris they assumed that I wasn't seeing anybody so my mother kept trying to fix me up with all these sons of friends and and relatives and I don't know strangers she'd meet on the street I don't know where she found these guys but my mother is determined to make me happy whether I like it or not so anyway a few months ago just so they'd feel better I told them I said I've started seeing someone I just invented a boyfriend ah oh and that's yeah right oh wow I thought about asking a friend of mine to be my stand-in bow for the evening but frankly I'm too embarrassed for anyone I know to know about it so my call is your agency you must think this is extremely weird well I must admit I expected you to be

off no we can we can pick up where we are daddy next the four questions who does the four questions sir can we skip the four questions skip the four questions David when Sarah was a little girl she loved to ask the four questions mother no even when she was so little she couldn't even say the words but she knew it was something important her little eyes would be wide open taking it all in she was always so helpful um and we'd say Sarah asked the four questions and she'd sing Happy Birthday instead she was so adorable that's a great story don't encourage her she'll bring out baby pictures that reminds me of a story when I was a kid growing up oh does it when I was a little boy I grew up in a neighborhood with a couple of Gentile families and I remember my little Gentile friends talking about Santa Claus bringing them presents and one Passover I asked my father if Elijah comes will he bring presents like Santa Claus and my father said if Elijah comes he'll bring the greatest present of all and I said if Santa Claus brings presents every year from my friends when will Elijah bring his present and my father said we don't know but we hope he'll come soon that's what we Jews do we hope that's beautiful that's a beautiful story that is so beautiful you know I heard a story just like that on the radio today no I did [Music] David would you do the four questions oh oh yes why is this night different from all other nights maybe we ask for on all other nights we eat either leavened or unleavened bread why on this night only on leavened bread on all other nights we eat all kinds of herbs why on this night only bitter herbs on all other nights we need not dip our herbs even once why on this night must we dip them twice on all of the nights we eat either sitting up or reclining why on this night do we all recline good questions we were slaves then we were free let's eat hey breed a little more come on next the matzah give me the matzo thank you this matzah which we eat what is the reason for it because the dough of our fathers had not yet leavened when the king over all Kings the Holy One Blessed Be he revealed himself to them and redeemed them as it is said and they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt for it was not leaven because they were Thrust out of Egypt and could not Tarry neither had they prepared for themselves in evictuals these bitter herbs we eat what is the reason for them because the Egyptians made the lives of our forefathers bitter in Egypt as it is said and they made their life bitter with hard service in mortar and in Brick and in all manner of service in the fields in all their service wherein they made them serve with rigor David in every generation Let each man look on himself as if he came forth out of Egypt as it is said and thou shalt tell thy son in that day saying is because of that which the Lord did for me when I came forth out of Egypt therefore we are bound to think praise Lord glorify exalt honor bless extol and adore him who performed all these miracles for our fathers and for us he's brought us From Slavery to Freedom from sorrow to Joy from morning to Holiday from Darkness to great light and from bondage to Redemption wow let us then recite before him a new song Hallelujah good night drive safely oh I'm exhausted you made it relax what a concept tense times huh no no no I've always been tense when I was in high school I went out for the swim team and they used me for the diving board I thought that's funny well you were brilliant again it was so funny the way your dad whipped through that I gotta my father has a very particular view of life you know he treats business matters religiously and and religious matters like business can I get you anything no I'm fine something to express my appreciation can I buy you a drink can I buy you a car actually uh when I was a kid after a school performance or something like that my mother would take me to get ice cream oh oh well I'd be delighted to buy you some ice cream are you allowed to have ice cream on Passover uh uh it's not mistaken both Ben and Jerry are Jewish perfect I have a cup of Cherry Garcia with lots of cherries please and for you I have a scoop of chocolate with chocolate syrup can I get sprinkles yes we can get sprinkles and sprinkles you got it so where'd you get that beeper that was pretty clever yeah I borrowed it from a buddy of mine that does a lot of commercial work and I had a friend call me in case I needed an excuse to leave early well thank you for not leaving I'm glad I stayed me too here you go so is there a blessing for the ice cream okay that's all I've ever wanted to do what do you do I teach kindergarten kindergarten I remember kindergarten I used to get straight A's and sandbox oh really oh I have one little boy who loves to play in the sandbox his father is an architect he hires the other children to build sand castles for him for you so kindergarten huh do you like it do I like it you sound like my mother she always says Sarah is so smart they should let a teach a higher grade you want to sit down sure great anyway but yes kindergarten is my preference I don't have to spend all my time on academics I can give the children more individual attention work on their emotional development so maybe they won't end up as screwed up as the rest of us I think we're all screwed up I don't know I look at the children in my classroom and they're they're so open they're so free I I don't remember ever being that free will make you feel free [Music] if I could do one thing it was just for me without worrying how my parents will feel about it that would be [Music] wow I think your parents are great I do too I love my parents they've sacrificed their whole life for me and they expect me to sacrifice my whole life for them remember that story I told the one that was on the radio yeah yeah I wish my father was like that we never really got along he hated the idea that I wanted to be an actor we used to have these awful drag down beat out arguments you want to hear something Wild after each one of these arguments the very next time I saw he'd have bought me a new pair of shoes just like that you go here you go here's some shoes it used to drive me crazy I could never figure it out why shoes but then it occurred to me but that was his way of saying no matter what that he loved me and everything was going to be okay but boy you should have seen my closet I had one suit and 21 pairs of winning tips both my parents are dead um I I'm so sorry that's why I envy you the only family I really have are the people I'm working with on a show at any given time my life is very transitory [Music] you know I was going to

quiet way I've been falling in love with you you know that yes all right okay we'll look then okay I've been doing some thinking what are you thinking well your family's crazy about me you know they're crazy about Dr Steinberg what's in a name what's in a name let's not forget what happened to Romeo and Juliet Romeo and Juliet concealed their love that was their mistake let's not do that I just need a little time okay over time I can break the whole thing to them gently how about that well I don't want this to sound like a threat or an ultimatum or any I'm not gonna do that sounds like a threat and an ultimatum all right I suppose it is what do you want me to do Sarah write this in ink chisel it in stone embroider it in a doily there's the truth and then there's everything else [Music] oh no well an actor should never give up the chance to play a role but uh I'm through with playing Dr Steinberg Bob yeah that's my name Robert Schroeder if you ever want to introduce your family to Robert Schroeder give me a call [Music] Bob [Music] Bob no no no my parents are coming over they want to take us out for a nice dinner you don't want to miss that do you need to tell them about it yes yes I eventually I will Sarah Bob I have messed up everything else in my life I don't want to mess this up you have become a part of my life you are already a part of my family I don't want to lose that tell them about us I don't want to hurt them you don't want to hurt them you don't want to hurt Chris you don't want to hurt me all you're doing is hurting yourself a man has got to stake his claim it's what he's got to do well maybe he had a medical emergency no I used that one already maybe he had to go to San Francisco no I'm gonna have to use that one later besides why didn't I tell me why did San Francisco if you already went to San Francisco maybe he had a medical emergency in San Francisco oh oh thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you what's going on mom called she says you're engaged yep it's official you're gaining a brother you uh want to tell me what's going on what do you mean well I called Northwestern Memorial I spoke to Dr David Steinberg yeah only he's 80 years old in an Orthopedics so what's going on [Music] do you remember Chris yeah I told everyone that I stopped seeing him but I didn't I didn't stop seeing him I invented Dr David Steinberg to tell mother about so she would quit trying to fix me up all the time Dave Bob is an actor I hired to play the part for you all so you made all of this up because you didn't like the guys that mom was trying to fix you up with she wanted to see me with the perfect boyfriend I gave her the perfect boyfriend and you're still seeing Chris well no actually not anymore so how long is this Bob thing going to go on well now it gets kind of complicated oh now it gets complicated just oh you're gonna handle it how are you gonna handle it I'm I'm working on I don't suppose honesty has occurred to you as an option has it well I can't tell them about Bob now any more than I could tell them about Chris well I don't see how he's in Jewish he's not Jewish not officially no no wonder I was confused I knew there was something phony about Dr Steinberg it just never occurred to me that everything was phony about Dr Steinberg if Mom and Dad weren't so bad out of shape about me dating someone who isn't Jewish none of this would have happened Sarah there are other issues here besides who you decide to date please don't don't do that don't be a therapist do not start psychoanalyzing I'm not psychoanalyzing I I will support you 100 just tell me what it is that you want me to support now what is it that you want the most right now I want to be with Bob Bob okay oh I have your permission now thank you very much why do you need someone's permission because that's the way I was raised okay we always have to be nice everything has to be nice God forbid somebody's feelings should be hurt what about your feelings I have no time to consider my feelings I spend my whole life worrying about their feelings I just want to live my own life so who's stopping you they are they are yes let me say one thing about that baloney I don't need this right now look Mom and Dad are Mom and Dad they're your parents they're not gonna change if you want your relationship with them to be different you have to change it but they won't let me oh well then it's all their fault you can blame them for all your problems every day clients are sitting in my office going on and on about how

very decent human being and I love your daughter very much and while it might be a source of conflict for her I believe she also loves me I want to dedicate my life to making her happy and to provide for her in every way that I possibly can so with your permission hopefully your blessing I would like to ask your daughter for her hand in marriage foreign who is this you remember Chris the man that I was seeing who I told you I wasn't seeing anymore oh Santa Claus it's an unfortunate sober K but I will not let it dissuade me for my purpose you didn't like him because he isn't Jewish ah Chris I
