- So, Patrick's a wrestler? - Oh, very good one. - Yes, a good one. - Very good wrestler. So what's that, Greco-Roman or arena? Don't answer that. Greco-Roman. What's arena? Arena is pro. Do you think that Joe would run away - to prove a point? - Oh, hold on now. We don't know that they've run away. I mean, there is absolutely no reason that Patrick would run away. Not for Patrick to run away, no. - Okay. - You're right. It's a classic kidnapping. They took our children and the canned goods and pasta. All right, look, I hate to admit it, but Frank is right. Right now, we have to assume that these are voluntary disappearances. Wow. What do you know? The police, always pushing their pig Irish agendas.

Whoa. Mrs. Keenan, I assure you, there is no other agenda than to find your son right now. No. The Irish are the blacks of Europe. The blacks of Europe. - Oh, my God. - Period. - That's powerful stuff. - That's not.. Okay, wow. Sweetheart, I'm Irish, okay? We're under a lot of stress, Captain. I'm sorry about.. You know Patrick was our only boy. "Is." - Did you know that? - Yes, I do. - Did you? I'm well aware. Listen, according to the report, $80 to $100 in food and housewares is missing. From the Toy house, we are down a tool set, grill utensils and about $240 in cash. Now, I presume we're not pressing charges.

Not at this time. He took the Monopoly, too. Obviously to spite me. Maybe he just wanted something to remember you by. No way. He hates that damn game. Did you see him the other night? Well, he used to love it, you know, when it was, like, the four of us. You're kind of shitting on his memories, Dad. Well, what am I supposed to do, Heather? You know, if I died, he'd get over it in about six weeks. Uh, sir, Chinese food is here, so I would like to actually.. How much? Uh, it's $51. $51? What the hell did you order? Heather? Don't look at me. I got dumplings. I'm not even hungry. Yeah, I actually ordered a.. A large portion of the shrimp with lobster sauce. I figured it was pretty neutral. We can eat it family-style. - Neutral? - Mm-hmm. Shrimp with lobster sauce? Yeah. I can't think of a more marginal dish in any culture.

- Bad. - Bad. Gary, every time.. You see those wontons, Gary? - You see the size of them? - Mm-hmm. Those wontons are too big, my friend. Everybody loves those. People ask us for the recipe. We won't provide it. It's part of our training... how to deal with people who want the recipe too bad. - Oh? -We have a phrase we have to repeat. - What is that? - "We won't provide it." I can see the value of these now. I can have the kids from the neighborhood come over and bounce up and down on them at a fucking party. - Oh, sarcasm, I get it. - It's like a bouncy house. The poor man's wit. My question for you, Gary, is: How do you want me to eat these with my normal human mouth? Do you want me to unhinge my jaw like an anaconda? Should I put this in my belly and lay out in the sun - for two months, digesting it? - Dad, enough!! My God!! - Just pay the poor guy. - My God. Yeah, and maybe you should get some forks in the house so your dad doesn't have to unhinge his stupid jaw to.. We're done here, and for the record, your wontons are way too big. Nobody can fucking eat those. No, I can eat them; just give them to me. - Good night, Gary. - I'd be very happy to eat those. Your house has a bad vibe. No more rice, no more pasta. It's time to eat an honest meal. Biaggio? You and I will take to the trees. Patrick, you, uh.. Yeah, yeah, I know. I-I pick berries and apples and forage. And it makes a lot of sense, yeah.

Oh, don't.. Don't drink the water. Uh-uh, I shouldn't have done that. I'm glad you came out, Biaggio. I mean, this is.. This is our rite of passage, goddamn it. Have you ever felt this at one with.. With yourself? With your instincts, with nature? This.. This masculine? I don't know. I don't really see myself as having a gender. Is that a problem? It's not great. This way to the bison, my friend.

We got it. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh, God, okay. Flip, flip, flip the thing, and I'll, uh.. I'll take its life. Strike it at its neck. Don't compromise the meat. - I know, I know. - It may plead; don't listen. - Be cold, clinical with the blade. -I will. It may try to bargain... this is natural. - Just turn it!! - Okay!!
