Mike And Molly – Some Hugging In The Toilet

You know what looks good? The French toast.
I thought you were on a diet.
I am. But you’re not.
I am not gonna be your surrogate eater again.
You know, you’re just selfish. You were born with a body that can eat French toast. I wasn’t.
What?! It’s just weird you watching me eat. Just leering, barking out commands. “More syrup.” “Slow down”” “Don’t ignore the whipped cream“”

Come on, Carl. Nobody around here’s ordered anything I want.
You two ready to order?

Oh, where’s Samuel?

In the can the last two hours. Want to hear the specials?

That depends. Did Samuel eat a special?

Two hours? Should we go check on him?

Yeah. All right, hold our booth. Two black coffees. And he’ll have the French toast, whipped cream on the side. He doesn’t know how to treat it.
Sam, are you in here? Come on, man, I know it’s you. I recognize your wide stance.
Go away.
Come on, Samuel. That toilet’s been busted for months.
Yeah, he should know. He was a material witness.
I had nothing to do with that. You can’t convict a man just ’cause he’s got priors.
I appreciate your concern, but I would like to be alone. I’ve just received a very disturbing letter from home.
Aw, geez. Did-did someone die?

No.
Anybody sick?

No.
Okay then. We’ll get out of your hair.
“Dear Son “Our village is once again in the grips of a horrible drought. “Tribal warfare threatens to break out at any minute. “So it is with deep sadness I inform you “that this month we can only afford to send you $164.
Wait, your family lives in Africa and they send you money?

I know. I’m pathetic.
Well, no, no, now, you know Well.
Yeah, I’m trying to put a positive spin on this, but I keep picturing a guy covered in flies writing you a check.
Out of 14 children, I was the one they sent to America. Look at me. I’m a complete failure.
They put all of their ostrich eggs in the wrong basket.
No. Now-now, you know Well.
My family can’t afford to support me anymore, and I can’t afford to live here. They’re telling me I should come back home.
Sorry, pal.
What am I going to do? Oh.
Okay. All right. Okay.
I might as well get up in this, too.
Can you give us a minute? We’re just finishing up in here..
