Meet The Blacks

What is that? I don't know.
What is that, a cell phone? God.
- What the hell is that? - I don't know.
Oh, it's a smoke alarm.
The smoke alarm's going off.
It's the stupid batteries.
Come on, we've gotta find it.
No, it's not that one.
It's not that one.
No.
Try the guest room.
I think it's downstairs.
I don't think I have any feeling in my shoulders, I swear to God.
- It does take its toll, man.
- Take its toll - You did very well, by the way.
- You don't have to condescend.
No, seriously, for a guy who doesn't play, I thought he did very well.
You did.
You never play.
What do you want from yourself? - Give yourself a break.
- One thing I want to tell you, - after you hit the ball six, seven times - Yeah? and it's not in the hole, just pick it up and we'll move on.
- You shouldn't take more than seven.
- Yeah, that's just craziness.
Just pick up the ball.
He's right, yeah.
- You'll never have to experience me again.
- No, we had fun.
Didn't you have fun with us, hanging out? It was a little boring, to be honest with you.
- That's a nice thing to say.
- Well, it fucking was.
Okay, give me back my $150 that I spent on your guest fee.
You paid $150 for me to look like a fucking asshole? More shocking footage from Hurricane Edna - which has left extensive destruction.
- These poor people.
The storm surge inundated low-lying areas - knocking out phone and power lines.
- Oh, boy.
That's from global warming, that hurricane.
and thousands left homeless.
Look at that thousands of homeless people now.
FEMA is estimating damage from this category 5 hurricane in the billions of dollars.
Oh, wow.
It's Katrina all over again.
Poor people.
Did you go to Funkhouser's party last night? No.
Did you? No.
Huh-uh.
Why? Because I'm going to Danson's party tonight.
Two back to back I don't want to go to two parties back to back.
It was a stupid night for him to have a party.
- Yeah.
- Did you call him? No.
- Well, what are you gonna say? - I'll tell him Sammy was sick.
You're gonna use your child to get out of a party? - Why not? It's the best thing in the world.
- It's a perfect excuse.
- No one can argue with that.
- Who argues with that? I wish I had that.
It's a great reason to have kids.
It's a great reason to have kids.
It's one of the bonuses, yep.
What am I gonna do? What am I gonna say? - You have nothing, nothing.
- I know.
I'll just show up tonight and pretend I had the wrong night.
- That's stupid.
- That's great.
- Oh, please.
- No, that's fantastic.
I love that.
Yeah.
Ding-dong "Where's the party?" - Isn't that a good idea? - That's a great idea.
He's not gonna buy that.
That's such obvious bullshit.
No, it isn't.
Nobody would go out of their way that much to show up at somebody's house, pretend they had the wrong night.
He's gotta be a mental case to believe it.
No, I love that.
That's fantastic.
Have you ever seen Richard look in the mirror? Is that really what I do? - You happy now? - Yeah.
- All right, I'll see you at Danson's? - Yeah.
- Okay.
- Thanks for turning me off to a sport forever.
It's okay.
Are you gonna go tonight? Uh, I don't know.
I have to ask Cha Cha.
I'll see.
- Cha Cha.
- Cha Cha.
Where did he get her from? Man, oh, man.
- She is so hot.
- Good for him.
- Good for him.
- Yeah, good for him.
Let him enjoy.
- She's somethin'.
- Yeah.
Wow.
- All right.
- All right, my friend.
- See you at Danson's.
- I'll see you at Danson's.
Okay.
What are you gonna wear? I'm gonna dress like a little Dutch girl.
"What am I wearing?" I can't stop thinking about the hurricane.
Oh, my nose is really itching me and I can't scratch it.
I mean, the pictures on TV were just you can't even imagine that people survived it.
I know, it's awful.
Awful.
I was watching it today.
All these people they have no place to go right now.
Hey! Hey, dum-dum, go ahead, move in.
- Thank you.
- Their houses were completely destroyed.
You know what my father used to call those people? Schmohawks.
Did I ever tell you that? - Yeah.
- Have I mentioned schmohawks to you? Schmohawk.
"Hey, schmohawk!" - He used to yell it out all the time.
- Imagine for one second if we lost if you lost every single thing you had in your life.
What do I have? I don't know what's so - what do I have? - This is well, there - I like this sport jacket.
I can't replace this.
- Listen, when there's you know what some people are doing, that I personally think is a really great idea, is they're bringing in displaced families.
- Hmm.
- You know, I've been doing a little research and we could actually have a family here tomorrow.
- What? - Yeah.
- Tomorrow? - They have no place to go.
I would need a couple of months to mentally prepare for that.
Tomorrow? We don't have a couple of months.
These people need help right now.
It's a nice concept.
Uh, you know, we'll think about it.
We don't need to jump into this thing right now.
Imagine how they would feel to come here and live in our house.
Mmm.
Oh, all right, we're here.
We're at Funkhousers'.
Why aren't we just going to Ted and Mary's, Larry? This is so stupid.
- This is so stupid.
- What? Are you kidding? There's nothing to it.
We'll just pretend we had the wrong night.
This way he feels good that at least we attempted to go to his party.
Can't we just go to Ted and Mary's? We're gonna go to Ted and Mary's after we do this.
It won't take long.
It's two minutes.
- Hey.
- Hey, Marty.
What happened to you guys? Where where is everybody? You mean, from the party? Oh, they've been gone for about 24 hours.
- The party was last night.
- Last night? A great party.
Oh yeah, we had a lot of fun.
- Are you kidding? - We never heard from you.
- Oh my gosh.
- The party was last night.
- We sent you an invitation.
- Oh, Marty.
Oh my God, that is unbelievable.
- I guess we mixed up the dates.
- We missed the party? - Totally missed it.
- How did that happen? Oh, it was a great party.
This may be the dumbest thing I've ever done in my life - well, we've ever done.
- You guys thought the party was tonight? Yeah, obviously.
Everyone else was here.
You know what? I swear I had a feeling.
I really had a feeling.

We don't want to impose on you.
You're not imposing.
You're tired from last night.
You were up late with your party.

Are you nuts? - Yeah, we wouldn't dream of it.
Don't worry.
We've got some food left over, got some games to play.

- Oh Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
I'm sorry we missed it Yeah, well, we didn't wanna miss it.
- Obviously, we're here.
- No, but you know what? Let me tell you what we did.
We had an hour and a half of the greatest improv karaoke singing - you've ever heard in your life.
- Oh, boy.
We're sorry we missed it.
And you know what? - We shouldn't be here right now.
- Yeah, it's crazy.
- We really should go.

I'm not heaping guilt.

- Please, oh, stop it! - Sit down! Come on, sit down.
I'm okay with it.
And stop feeling bad.
We're here now.
You know what game I love that we didn't play last night? It's and we play it for money "1000 pick-up sticks.
" I go get the sticks, I throw them all over the room and we pick up the sticks.
And the one with the most sticks wins the pot.
- That sounds good.
- Are you expecting company? Yeah, what is this? You got company? - Now we're intruding on your company.
- I'll get rid of them.
- Now it's really crazy.
- Please relax.
I'll get rid of them.

- It's tonight.
Well, guess who else thought it was tonight? Who? - What are the odds? - Yeah, what are the odds? - Oh my God, how about that? - We're just gonna go.

- Well, not a party What the hell are you doing? You stole my wrong-night bit.
I didn't steal it.
I give you full credit.
It's a brilliant idea.
I told Susie - it was your idea.
- We're never getting out of here.
- We'll be out of here in five minutes.
- Five minutes? - Trust me.
Five minutes.
- Let me tell you something: There's no way you're making Danson's party tonight.

I don't care about Cha Cha.
I was trying to win the game.
You thought she was sexy.
I thought that's what you would write down.
Cheryl, come on.
I don't come on, what can I do? What can I do? I'll do anything.
Come on.
Anything? Well, you know, short of adopting this hurricane family.
I can't wait to get to the airport to see the family.
It's so exciting.
- Are you excited? - Mmm.
We'll finally get to meet them.
They're gonna be so happy.
The guy on the phone was saying how excited they were when they got on the plane 'cause they'd never been to L.
A.
Before.
I can't wait to see what they look like.
I know that sounds weird, but I've been talking, you know, to them and about them, you know Yeah.
I just I just want to make one quick stop before we go.

That's crazy.
Of course I want to be here.
- I just feel I'm intruding, that's all.
- We are intruding.
I was raised not to intrude on people.
My mother would be horrified horrified if she knew that I was sitting in the living room the night after a big party just took place horrified.
And it's bothering me.
Oh my God, you know what? I left the car running.
- No, you didn't.
- How did you know I didn't? If you walk away from the car, it's on, and you got your car keys in your hand, it goes "beep beep beep beep beep.

Fixtures going all along the staircase ooh-ee! I can't believe this.
- We don't smoke in the house.
- Them curtains just fabulous.

- Thank you.
- Where's the kitchen at? - It's right around there.
I'm going.
I'm going.
- This is so great.
- She's smoking.
They're so great.
Oh, you know what we should do? Let's have a party.
Let's have a party and invite our friends so they can meet the Blacks.

- Uh-huh.
You need a cake? We do.
A chocolate layered cake.
We want to get the same one that Marty Funkhouser gets.
Oh, yes.
He's actually ordered it a couple of times.
- Yeah.
- I have one that I just prepared recently.
I think it was the best cake we've ever had.
- Unbelievable.
- We can't stop talking about it.
It is one of our most popular cakes.
- I can understand why.
- Yes, and here he is.
- That's a penis.
- Yeah, well, we're an erotic bakery.
Oh my God.
This is where Marty buys his cakes? - I ate that? - Yes, you ate this cake.
Funkhouser he knowingly served us penis.
- What is wrong with that guy? - Let's go.
- What an idiot.
- Thank you.
This is crazy - a crotch.
- The cake is delicious, by the way.
Thank you very much, sir.
- I'll tell you, it was something else.
- She's right.
It was one of the scariest things I've ever experienced in my lifetime.
- We are lucky we got out of there alive.
- Yes, we are.
- I want you to meet these guys.
- Okay.
I hope we're not too rude, but we showed up - the night of the party.
- Good one.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Let me ask you a question.
How come you didn't tell me that I was eating - a black penis the other night? - You mean the cake? Yeah.
Well, I told you it was a black log cake.
Yeah, still, I was eating a black penis.
You didn't mention it.
Well, eating a black penis is not appetizing to everybody.
Next time you're gonna do something like that, tell me, okay? I think that's unfair.
Why did you take the balls home? I didn't know they were balls.
Excuse me.
Mm-hmm.
Yes, it was you.
Well Oh, boy oh boy.
Hey.
- Hi.
- Hi, Cha Cha.
- Hi, Larry.
- I'm sorry about the other night.
I was just trying to win "The Newlywed Game" is all.
Look, I'm over it.
I'm here.
- Believe me, I'm way over it.
- You know - Hey, everybody, who wants cake? - I do, I do.
Oh, great great.
The best cake I ever had.
Come on.
give you a childish apology No, because it was my routine and Jeff! Jeff, the cake! Jeff! I'm I'm so sorry.
First of all, you have to understand something, okay? My friend Jeff did not know did not know that there was a penis in that box when he picked that up from the bakery.
He called in the order and they gave him the box.
He didn't look inside the box.
How's Keysha? I finally got her to sleep.
She's upset.
Of course.
Of course she's upset.
Understandable.
To see a big penis like that what are you gonna do? She's a little girl.
Okay, you know the smoking-in-the-house I wanted to talk to you about.
Um, is there any way maybe you would consider smoking outside on occasion? How's the cake? - Pretty good.
- Mmm.
Pretty pretty good.
You want some? Good night.
Good night.
- Where have you been? - Ate some penis.
So what are we gonna do now, L.
D.
? Maybe some family will adopt us.
Holy moly.
What happened? - A fire.
- Oh my God.
What are you doing here? - Oh, I'm here for the party.
- The party? The party was yesterday.
What? Yesterday.
The party was yesterday.
Oh, you're kidding me.
