Season 1, Episode 12 — Walleye
.
#1
⇓
- All right, quickly finish shutting up, everybody.
#2
⇓
I have an awesome new Miles mission.
#3
⇓
We're gonna make him a deadbeat dad.
#4
⇓
- Hold up, wouldn't he have to be a dad first?
#5
⇓
Dan, you're great at this class.
#6
⇓
- So I was looking for dirt on Miles,
#7
⇓
and I found an old photograph of us together
#8
⇓
with this girl, Theresa, that he had a fling with.
#9
⇓
Now, if he had gotten her pregnant without realizing it,
#10
⇓
then their child would now be,
#11
⇓
oh, about your age.
#12
⇓
What're you do-- Anthony?
#13
⇓
Pass the photo around.
#14
⇓
Well, look at it first.
#15
⇓
Never mind-- anyway--
#16
⇓
One of you is gonna bring this photo to Miles
#17
⇓
and say that that's your mom,
#18
⇓
and that you're his kid that he abandoned.
#19
⇓
Voila. Deadbeat dad.
#20
⇓
And the best part is, you're gonna tell him this
#21
⇓
right before he walks on stage in Detroit for a TED Talk.
#22
⇓
It's gonna totally mess with his head.
#23
⇓
It's gonna ruin his presentation.
#24
⇓
The only question that remains is,
#25
⇓
Which one of you can most convincingly
#26
⇓
play the role of Miles' kid?
#27
⇓
Let me see what you guys got.
#28
⇓
- I've missed you ever since I was a--
#29
⇓
- Too slow. Too slow.
#30
⇓
Okay, Heather. You're face to face with Miles.
#31
⇓
What're you gonna do?
#32
⇓
- Well, hey there, big daddy.
#33
⇓
- Nope. Mm-mm, wrong tone.
#34
⇓
- Am I the only one who feels like making Miles think
#35
⇓
he has a kid might be going a little too far?
#36
⇓
- Miles is lame.
#37
⇓
He deserves everything that's coming to him.
#38
⇓
He's peddling these fake philosophies
#39
⇓
to the ignorant masses and he knows better.
#40
⇓
- Yes. Devin gets it.
#41
⇓
This is exactly what I've been talking about.
#42
⇓
Okay, Devin. So...
#43
⇓
Tell me how you break the news to him.
#44
⇓
- Miles, you're my dad, and you suck.
#45
⇓
- There's our guy, right there. The Prince of Darkness is back.
#46
⇓
I love it. I'm gonna need to confiscate
#47
⇓
that knife from you, though, bud.
#48
⇓
Uh, I think I've let things get a little bit
#49
⇓
too loose around here.
#50
⇓
Go ahead and finish crossing the A
#51
⇓
on your anarchy thing, though.

#58

- Hello, ladies.
#59
⇓
- We need you to sign off on the Sadie Hawkins Dance theme.
#60
⇓
We're doing '80s again, okay?
#61
⇓
Leg-warmers and side ponies, y'all.
#62
⇓
- Well, I don't know if you guys have noticed,
#63
⇓
but since Brenda and I separated,
#64
⇓
I have been doing my own thang.
#65
⇓
- Oh!
#66
⇓
- That's why we came to you, Durb Daddy.
#67
⇓
- Thank you, but--but I was thinking that a good theme
#68
⇓
for the dance would be...
#69
⇓
The movie "Congo."
#70
⇓
Based on the Michael Crichton novel.
#71
⇓
It's got everything teens love.
#72
⇓
It's got gorillas, it's got lasers,
#73
⇓
it's got a character named Herkermer Homolka.
#74
⇓
Oh. I've seen that look.
#75
⇓
Got that look from Brenda for ten years.
#76
⇓
She--
#77
⇓
She hated all my ideas too.
#78
⇓
- Um, it's just...
#79
⇓
Mary?
#80
⇓
- Um, it's just, uh,
#81
⇓
obscure movies that no one's seen
#82
⇓
don't make great dance themes. - Mm-mm.
#83
⇓
- I'm sorry-- You guys have never seen this?
#84
⇓
Okay, guys, you gotta watch this, all right?
#85
⇓
And--and if you still don't think it's a good idea

for a dance, then we won't do it.

- Uh, if you want a selfie, we're gonna have to be quick,
#94
⇓
'cause I've got an awful lot of people out there who--
#95
⇓
- 17 years ago you had sex with my mom, which makes you my dad.
#96
⇓
Her? Oh.
#97
⇓
Theresa Cantrell is your mum?
#98
⇓
Theresa the teaser, we used to--
#99
⇓
- I have a lot of complicated feelings,
#100
⇓
and I'm sure you do as well.
#101
⇓
I gotta say, I feel, uh, pretty neglected.
#102
⇓
A little angry.
#103
⇓
Sorry about the timing.
#104
⇓
I hope it doesn't mess up your speech.
#105

- A son.
#106
⇓
Oh, my goodness.
#107
⇓
My life just keeps getting better and better.
#108
⇓
All right, let's have a look at you then.
#109
⇓
Oh, you're a big lad.
#110
⇓
Look at those eyes.
#111
⇓
Beautiful--They're mine.
#112
⇓
And you've got the forehead. You've--we've--got--
#113
⇓
You've got the same highly expressive forehead.
#114
⇓
Oh, my goodness me. - You're on.
#115
⇓
- Yeah, got it, right. I've gotta go and do the--
#116
⇓
And you wait here, and I'll be back.
#117
⇓
- Uh--
#118
⇓
Hello, Detroit! I have a son!
#119
⇓
Yeah!
#120
⇓
Well,
#121
⇓
Miles was unfazed.
#122
⇓
- It's like the meaner you are to him, the nicer he is.
#123
⇓
- What kind of a dork is thrilled to find out
#124
⇓
that he's been saddled with an unwanted child?
#125
⇓
Ah, and that's him calling me right now.
#126
⇓
Yeah? - Jack.
#127
⇓
Hello, old mate.
#128
⇓
Do you remember Theresa the teaser?
#129
⇓
- Mm-hmm. - Well, long story short,
#130
⇓
she had a baby, and now I have a son.
#131
⇓
And you'll never guess, he lives in Toledo,
#132
⇓
your hometown,
#133
⇓
which is where I am right this minute.
#134
⇓
Right now?
#135
⇓
.
#136
⇓
- So we watched the movie "Congo."
#137
⇓
And it was good.
#138
⇓
It was very good. - Very good.
#139
⇓
Don't think, just answer.
#140
⇓
- Easy, when the gorilla drinks a martini and burps.
#141
⇓
- Me too!
#142
⇓
- And while that is all very
#143
⇓
Um, I'm actually starting to think, just a little bit,
#144
⇓
how would you turn that into a dance theme?
#145
⇓
As much as I would love to.
#146
⇓
- Yeah, Durbin, it's like, What were you even picturing?
#147
⇓
- How were you even gonna decorate, Ralph?
#148
⇓
Take the jungle foliage sets
#149
⇓
from last year's production of "South Pacific"?
#150
⇓
- Oh, my-- Guys, I'm--I'm seeing this.
#151
⇓
This could work. - Me too.
#152
⇓
I can't believe it.
#153
⇓
I think we're all actually coming around to "Congo."
#154
⇓
both: No!
#155
⇓
- Uh, stop it, Michelle.
#156
⇓
Sorry to hurt your feelings, Durbin,
#157
⇓
but "Congo" as the dance theme
#158
⇓
is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
#159
⇓
It's worse than Fish Week.
#160
⇓
- Brenda hated Fish Week.
#161
⇓
She said it was "unsanitary nonsense."
#162
⇓
But, I guess, all my ideas are bad,
#163
⇓
aren't they?
#164
⇓
You know, you guys, just do the '80s dance and--
#165
⇓
just do whatever you want.
#166
⇓
[taps keys forcefully, vocalizes downtrodden tune]
#167
⇓
- Guys, this is bad. He can't know that I live here.
#168
⇓
And he can't know that I teach high school.
#169
⇓
- You can always point out the fact
#170
⇓
that you don't teach anything.
#171
⇓
- What kind of a twisted sicko just shows up
#172
⇓
to see his abandoned son?
#173
⇓
So pathetic.
#174
⇓
- Drives all the way here uninvited.
#175
⇓
It's like he's so desperate for love.
#176
⇓
- Yeah, yeah.
#177
⇓
You're right.
#178
⇓
He's desperate. We can use that.
#179
⇓
Okay, so, you need to embrace your relationship to Miles.
#180
⇓
Make him really love you, and then--
#181
⇓
Reject him. Hard.
#182
⇓
- And then we can see if old Miles can float.
#183
⇓
- Uh, too far, Prince of D.
#184
⇓
Why don't we just stick to the emotional crushing?
#185
⇓
- I don't know, I feel like the moral compass
#186
⇓
is thumbs down on this one.
#187
⇓
- Yeah, and I feel like I'm pretty thumbs down on you,
#188
⇓
Marcus. - Great.
#189
⇓
- Okay, guys, I need some ideas for Miles bonding time.
#190
⇓
What do you guys like to do with your parents around here?
#191
⇓
- You know, the Toledo Walleye hockey games are fun.
#192
⇓
My family has season tickets.
#193
⇓
And I'm taking my little brother, Jeffy,
#194
⇓
tomorrow night.
#195
⇓
- My man. Dan, that's perfect.
#196
⇓
Okay, so, Devin.
#197
⇓
Tomorrow you'll go sightseeing with Miles after school.
#198
⇓
And then, end the evening at a Walleye hockey game.
#199
⇓
Ah, you know how to really set him up for rejection?
#200
⇓
Call him "Dad."
#201
⇓
Then it's time for the pièce de résistance.
#202
⇓
Tell him you want nothing to do with him.

It must've felt nice to say sorry for having missed

every significant event in his entire life,

you know, baseball games, recitals--

Aw, his wobbly first step.

#296

tell him all those things.

I would've killed to hear my absentee father

say sorry to me for missing all that stuff

in my life, you know, in person.
#301
⇓
My two cents?
#302
⇓
I think it's worth, uh, sticking around one more day
#303

to tell him all that.

#312
⇓
that we are totally on board for "Congo."
#313
⇓
- Like you said before, it's a bad idea.
#314
⇓
- We were talking about it and realized we're the only ones
#315
⇓
who care about the dance theme.
#316
⇓
- Yeah.
#317
⇓
- The kids don't pay attention to the decorations.
#318
⇓
They just see them as something to hide behind
#319
⇓
so they can grab up on a butt.
#320
⇓
- Mm-hmm, yeah, it makes no difference
#321
⇓
whether they're honking on each other's little
#322
⇓
behind a jungle in the Congo, or a big '80s Rubik's Cube.
#323
⇓
- I mean, it's true.
#324
⇓
The--these dances are a full-on dog park.
#325

- In every way.

I found two poops last year.

- Ralph, we just wanna support you.

- You guys are the best.

⇓
Listen.
#332
⇓
Keep this under your hats, okay?
#333
⇓
We don't want some other school stealing our theme.
#334
⇓
- We are literally, um, never telling anyone about this.
#335
⇓
Ever. Okay?
#336
⇓
- Uh, sorry to interrupt.
#337
⇓
Is this
#338
⇓
Ah, hah, there he is.
#339
⇓
- Miles, what're you doing here?
#340
⇓
- Well, I--I realized that I never apologized to you,
#341
⇓
for missing out on-- well, I've missed--
#342
⇓
Missing out on everything
#343
⇓
until yesterday.
#344
⇓
And I wanted to swear to you that I'm gonna make that right.
#345
⇓
Money's no object. You know, whatever it costs.
#346
⇓
I'll fly backwards and forwards.
#347
⇓
Whatever it takes to-- to be your dad.
#348
⇓
- I can't do this.
#349
⇓
You're not my dad. - No, I--
#350
⇓
completely understand that.
#351
⇓
And I will work to earn that title.
#352
⇓
- No, I mean it, I'm not your son.
#353
⇓
- But we--we've got the same--
#354
⇓
Expressive forehead.
#355
⇓
- Well, actually, the forehead's not really
#356
⇓
an identifying characteristic.
#357
⇓
- Okay, shh, bud. Who are you?
#358
⇓
- I didn't mean any of it.
#359
⇓
I'm sorry.
#360
⇓
Wha--I don't--
#361
⇓
Oh, I was excited about us. I--I felt...
#362
⇓
I was gonna have a fuller life 'cause of you.
#363
⇓
And then...
#364
⇓
You're a monster.
#365
⇓
Whoa! Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!
#366
⇓
Whoo! Holy crap, uh!
#367
⇓
Now, if I'm not mistaken,
#368
⇓
that is a garbage can filled with Miles' puke.
#369
⇓
Yeah?
#370
⇓
And from what I was seeing, it's 'cause he's a broken man.
#371
⇓
Am I right? Okay.
#372
⇓
Well, then this calls for a celebration.
#373
⇓
Uh-uh! Whoo!
#374
⇓
We did it, baby. Oh, it was glorious, mmm.
#375
⇓
What's
#376
⇓
.
#377
⇓
I'm sorry, what is going on here?
#378
⇓
What-- What's the deal?
#379
⇓
Guys, we--we succeeded. Let's celebrate!
#380
⇓
- He's a good guy and we broke him.
#381
⇓
For what?
#382
⇓
- For America!
#383
⇓
I don't know.
#384
⇓
What, are you trying to guilt me with your silence?
#385
⇓
That's not gonna work.
#386
⇓
Look, it's not like I don't know
#387
⇓
what you guys are thinking anyway, you know.

Anthony's over there like,

I'm judgy Anthony.
#390

You know? Victor's sitting there like,
#391

I think this may have
#392
⇓
gotten out of hand, Mr. Griffin.
#393
