Single Parents (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - Xander and Camille - full transcript
Angie's one night stand turns out to be connected to the group in an unexpected way; Douglas confronts some family issues with a little help from Poppy; Will attempts to teach Miggy how to work on his disciplining skills as a parent.
- Dude.
- Dude.
- We are out.
- We are out, and it is nighttime.
No wine. Wine is work.
I'm drinking cocktails,
and I'm gonna get looped.
- Let's get looped!
- Looped!
- [Cellphone vibrating]
- Mm. Mm.
Don't try to hide it.
You are texting your boyfriend.
[Sighs] Okay. I'm sorry.
He's so cute. Look.
He sent me a pic of him and the girls.
Douglas acts tough,
but he's a straight-up
undercover sweetheart.
He's a good dad, which I gotta say,
I find incredibly attractive,
- and I behave accordingly with my body.
- Mm.
Real good stuff.
Real good barf town stuff.
I'm sorry, but you're in a relationship,
and I haven't touched butts with a dude
that isn't Graham's dad in forever.
So, you know,
guess I'll never meet anyone
and I'll die alone.
Should we split a crab claw?
Ang, you're gonna meet someone.
And you could have any man out there
- who's open to hetero sex.
- I have tried, okay?
I am on all of the apps.
They're a nightmare.
The number of ways
we are allowing
the name Brian to be spelled
- is out of control.
- Okay.
Ang, you got to be positive
and believe that people
can surprise you.
What if... hear me out...
try being someone else tonight.
Have a no-strings, random hookup
where you basically play a character.
- You know what?
- Huh?
Listen to me.
See my face.
Hear my words.
I am in!
My girl.
- Yes.
- That's what I'm talking about.
- Let's see what we got.
- Okay.
Oh.
Okay, I could do that for one night.
So could I...
is what I would say
if I weren't in this
committed relationship.
So, you go.
Be an upbeat, fun, positive person.
- Fun, upbeat, positive person.
- Fun, upbeat, positive person.
- Fun, upbeat, positive person.
- Fun, upbeat, positive person.
Hey.
Sorry. That seat's taken.
By you.
[Chuckling]
[Laughs]
That is...
- That is good.
- Yeah.
Too good.
I'm Camille.
I'm a people person.
Work with people.
As a flight attendant.
Well, you've got my tray table
in the upright position.
[Laughs uncomfortably]
[Sighs heavily]
Well, I'm Xander with an "X,"
like "xylophone,"
which I actually play... well.
Cool.
- Just a second.
- Oh.
[Whispering] Positive.
[Whispering] He told me
he plays Xylophone!
[Sighs]
Xylophone? Wow.
Beautiful instrument.
Love to see it.
♪♪
[Xylophone dinging loudly]
[Inhales sharply]
Ah.
There she is!
Not surprised you slept well.
That mattress is from
the W Hotel collection.
Not cheap.
I'm just gonna hop
into my deluge shower,
and then maybe we'll grab some yum-yums?
Ohh. Yeah, you know what?
I am so bummed, but I have a flight.
Yeah, no, I get it.
I fly to Vegas 40 times a year.
Uh, so, why don't you just
write down your didgies,
and we'll, uh, find another time
to roll out of bed together.

Uch!
I cannot have hooked up
with Douglas' son.
It's too genetically close
to hooking up with Douglas.
- Excuse me?
- Oh, sorry.
I'm so happy for you guys. [Sighs]
I mean, what kind of undercover
sweetheart has a secret son?
[Laughing] I mean, I need a drink.
Or food. Or a swim.
- What time is it? I'm all turned around.
- You know what?
- What?
- We're being crazy.
Our lives aren't exciting enough
for this kind of drama.
Xander probably isn't even his son.
That photo could have been one of those
Big Brother-Little Brother situations.
Yeah. There's a logical explanation.
- Let's... Let's just go talk to Douglas...
- [Exhales heavily]
- ...get some peace of mind.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I have a son. So what?
I have to shower... hard.
Wha...
♪♪
All right, I gotta scoot to work.
We got a big heat wave coming in.
You know, normally we only name storms,
but I'm thinking about
giving this guy a name...
"Heatwave Harry." Too cute?
How about "Heatwave Miggy"?
[Both laugh]
How about we leave this
to the pros, okay?
- Okay.
- [Doorbell rings]
- Plaza Pizza.
- Vitelli's.
Malonadoney's. [Breathing heavily]
Yeah. Sorry, guys. This is 248 South.
The halfway house is 248 North.

- [Rhythmic clapping]
- Those are for us.
- Hello.
Thank you, gentlemen.
We tipped on the app.
Uh, what's going on?
We're having a pizza tasting!
And how did you children
order the pizza?
- With the Internet.
- And Miggy's credit card.
- Miggy!
- MIGGY: Yo?
Pepperoni?
You gave them your credit card?
What? Nah. They stole it.
Yeah, they always pull pranks
like this when I babysit.
They take my credit card,
order stuff online,
and throw pepperoni at my butt.
It's our thing.
It shouldn't be your thing.
Those kids need to be punished, okay?
Jack is gonna get bigger,
and you need to learn how to discipline.
[Chuckling] Oh, yeah, see,
I'm no... I'm not really huge
into discipline.
My approach is more improvisational.
I keep it light and unexpected,
like jazz.
- Jazz?
- Yeah, jazz.
Like, skibbee-doo-wop,
boopity-boop-boop.
I know what jazz is,
even though that was an insane example.
Jazz is more like...
♪ Free-dip, free-dip,
bop-bah, boo-doo-doo ♪
♪ Boop-boop-boop,
bah-doo-doop, whoa-ahp ♪
- That was excellent.
- I know.
Miggy, discipline has to be
direct and precise,
like a marching band, right?
♪ Pom-pom, pom-pom ♪
Watch.
- I'll take that...
- Hey!
- ...and that...
- Dad!
- ...and that.
- My Candy Crush!
You were disrespectful to Miggy.
Now this is happening. Deal.
What are we supposed to do now?
- Go play outside.
- GRAHAM: Outside?
Outside of what?!
See? Easy.
♪♪
And fun.
Okay.
How do you have a son
I don't know about?
DOUGLAS: Easy. I don't speak to him.
But he's your son.
Well, genetically
we share some things, sure...
you know, full head of hair,
good wingspan,
Broadway thighs...
- but that's where it ends.
- No.
I-I have a million questions.
Were... Were you and his mom married?
Very briefly.
She was legal counsel
for a chewing-tobacco company.
Now, the divorce was amicable,
but brutal for sport.
Look, Pop, I don't want
to talk about Xander, okay?
It was an incident
a long time ago... very painful.
No. No, Douglas.
You don't get to ignore your own kid.
You... You gotta fix this.
Look, I'm done trying to mend fences.
We're estranged, okay?
It's a shame, but that's that.
- Yeah, but, Douglas, you...
- No, no, no. No "but"...
except for your butt,
which I like very much.
They're too quiet, man.
- [Ball thuds]
- Everything's fine.
The marching-band approach works.
See?
They're learning their lesson
and having a ball.
[Chuckles]
"Ball" because they're
playing with a ball.
Uh, yeah, I-I got it, yeah.
This is insane.
What is this, 1931?
[Insect buzzes]
A dragonfly just buzzed by my head.
Are we even safe?
Those dumb micks are gonna pay.
- Whoa!
- Okay.
Sorry.
My Sicilian blood is on fire.
Oh, snap.
Someone just got interesting.
That iPad isn't just
Candy Crush and "Dinotrux."
It's how I say good night
to my mom at sleepovers.
When you come for my family,
I put your Irish bodies in the ground.
Wow.
Look, I gotta scoot to work.
You'll be fine.
Just stick to the discipline plan.
Remember... pom-pom! They're just kids.
- Aah.
- Just you now, huh?
Yeah.
Interesting.
♪♪
Hey, did you girls rent a backhoe?
Because they need you to sign for it.
Hello, Dad.
♪♪
What did you do?
♪♪
Place looks good, Dad.
Let me know if you want to modernize.
I can give you the name of my decorator.
She did my place in Glendale.
Up and coming.
Oh, no, Glendale has arrived.
It has long since arrived.
Must be nice being so close to Azusa.
Gets hot out there. Got a pool?
[Scoffs] Yeah, I got a pool.
It's a community pool,
but you can reserve it
for birthdays and special occasions.
I got it next Wednesday morning.
Oh, what fun!
Yeah, whether private
or community times.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, my God, what a shower.
I got in there, y'all.
♪♪
- Camille.
- Yeah.
♪♪
What are you doing at my dad's house?
What strange treat is this?
Um...
Xander.
- I guess you guys know each other.
- Yeah.
I, uh, broke down
on my way to the airport,
and then I asked this man
standing right here
if I could use his phone...
and then his shower.
- [Blows raspberries]
- Oh.
And then now you're here, and it just...
It's... fate?
Oh, I believe in fate.
Dad, I'd like to introduce you
to a special new friend of mine.
- This is Camille.
- Hey.
Well, what a pleasure
to meet you, Camille.
S-So, you two are, uh...
[Chuckles] Terrific.
Wait. What's so funny?
You heartless mountain!
You just can't stand to see me happy!
Oh, Xander, no.
Oh.
[Door opens and closes]
You slept with my son,
and you used a fake name?
Oh, this is my Christmas,
my dumb, beautiful Christmas.
Okay, look, bringing Xander here
isn't going as smoothly as I thought.
Oh, I-I think it's getting better.
But we can work through this, okay?
Uh...
Angie, can you go talk to him?
He'll listen to Camille.
But Camille was supposed to be
for one night only,
like a tank top from Forever 21.
I'm not sure I can keep up
all that positivity.
Come on, Ang. We have sons.
Can you imagine them not talking to us?
It breaks my heart.
Fine. What's in it for me?
- Whatever you want.
- Sour Patch Kids.
- Done.
- Man! I answered too fast.
Should have asked for a lot more.
- Okay. Here I go.
- Okay.
- TRACY: Hey.
- Hi.
You ready?
This heat wave is bad.
It's a real nasty one.
Yeah, it's super hot and nasty.
Wait. I'm sorry.
Are we flirting? It's hard to tell.
- Weather's so inherently sexual.
- I was not.
We are supposed to be professional.
This is bad behavior.
I'm so sorry. I didn't mean...
No, I was... I was flirting that time.
- With the bad behavior.
- The bad... I was... Yeah.
- And I couldn't even...
- I was... I was riffing on the bad...
- Hard to get that rhythm.
- I know. I...
- Okay. Start over?
- Okay. Let's do.
- Okay.
- [Cellphone vibrating]
- It's not working.
- Oh. Thank God.
[Chuckles] Okay.
Hey.
Will! Help!
They... They... They trapped me.
They caged me like a damn dog.
Oh, dip.
Miggy's hat.
[Exhales heavily]
[Pounding on door]
I told you they were mad
about your marching-band stuff.
Will, it's dark,
and I'm scared.
Have you tried the light?
[Click]
Okay, that part is better.
All right, I'm on my way.
Hey, Tracy,
I am so sorry. There's an emergency.
I have to see about a boy in a closet.
- Huh?
- I'll be back for the 5:00.
Okay, you better because if you're not,
our only option is McCormick,
and he's having one of
his "uh-oh" nights.
Hey.
Why the long lens?
[Laughs]
[Birds chirping]
Hey.
Hey you. How you doing?
Mind if I come in for a landing?
I'm sorry you had to see me like that.
Hey, I'm a flight attendant.
I see people at their worst.
I did Tampa to Orlando for six years.
[Scoffs]
It's just that my dad is, like,
so stuck in his ways, you know?
He'll never change.
I know someone like that.
My friend Angie.
Yeah, she always assumes
the worst in people.
And I'm always telling her,
"Angie, come on.
You got to just let people in.
You're so hot."
But she doesn't listen.
She sounds terrible.
You play the xylophone, dude!
Which is just the thing
that Angie would say,
just to give you an idea
of how negative she is.
But, you know, she's working on it.
And... And maybe your dad is, too.
You just got to be open.
You know, if he... gives you his hand,
sh-shake it.
Come on.
Talk to him.
♪♪
I had to leave work
in the middle of Heatwave Harry...
Or should it be Holly? Is Holly better?
- I like Hank.
- You could never do my job.
You guys are in real trouble.
You can do one of three things...
math, push-ups, or sweeping.
- I love sweeping.
- Then you can't do that one!
Now I have to text Tracy
to tell her that I'm on my way.
Wait. Where's my phone?
Wh... Mine's gone, too.
GRAHAM: The Sicilians
have an expression...
[Speaking Italian]
Yo, give us our phones back...
Miggy. Do not get emotional.
That's the jazz talking.
They're just trying
to get a rise out of us.
All we need to do is remain calm
and keep marching.
[Speaking Italian]
Bene, bene, bene.
♪♪
First of all, thank you all for coming.
You're speaking like
you're addressing 100 people.
I'm only here because of the strength
of this beautiful woman.
[Sighs] Everyone hear that?
Camille is out here killing it.
I'm so proud of you right now.
Okay.
Uh, let's get to the root
of your estrangement.
Xander, were you in high school,
dealing with new emotions?
Maybe we can play some music
to get you back there.
I actually have
some Flo Rida on my phone.
DOUGLAS: Don't need it.
I'll never forget the day it happened.
Trump had just fired Comey.
- Wait. What?
- What? It was that recent?
That's not the long-standing
feud I had imagined.
Oh, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
It was two years ago.
We had a disagreement
on the golf course,
and this is the first time
we've seen each other since then.
A disagreement?
No. You cheated.
I was about to beat you
for the first time,
and you called the game off
because of a... a fake storm.
I saw lightning!
You saw my ass!
That day was as dry as a cracker!
Oh, yeah, you're so sure
you would have sunk that putt?
He'll sink it on your grave, old man!
Take it back.
Okay, guys... and Camille...
let's move past the golf game.
Or let's move to it!
Let's get to the green!
Yes, let us!
What a lovely day for sport!
- Indeed!
- No...
To the green!
No, guys! Gu... Angie.
Sorry. A lot of momentum.
Angie. Angie!
C-Camille!
All right, you have something of ours,
we have something of yours.
We can figure this out.
Yeah. We're all adults here.
Totally inaccurate. Let's do this.
Tracy's probably furious with me.
- [Cellphone vibrating]
- GRAHAM: Oh, she is.
Based on these texts,
she's steamed like a nice vongole.
What do you want?
Our devices... and $175,000.
Red carpet for the "Cats"
premiere with transportation.
Dignity. And gummy frogs.
- Oh, yeah, those are really good.
- I want those, too.
- I want those.
- Yeah.
- Oh, those are delicious.
- Right?
- So good!
- Oh, my God.
All right, fine! You win.
You can have 'em back.
Just give me my phone.
Devices in the center
of the table on three.
One, two, three...
Four, five, six...
- Just to three.
- Okay.
And release.
[Kids sigh]
What are you doing with my phone, ese?
Chill. Chill.
The WiFi's not working.
GRAHAM: Is the Earth off its axis?!
I was in the middle of
buying Lizzo tickets!
Jazz.
♪♪
Here's the deal...
you will not have access to the Internet
until you make up
for today's bad behavior.
Each chore will yield
one letter, number,
or symbol of the password.
[Speaking Italian]
Bro!
We took my jazz and your marching band,
and together we became...
- ...soul mates.
- Marching jazz.
Marching jazz.
That's... That's what I meant.
You better pray for lightning.
You better pray I don't karate you.
[Sighs] Damn it.
- That made no sense.
- No, don't do that.
- It made perfect sense.
- [Sighs]
I'll be right back.
God, this thing is out of control.
I gotta end it.
But I'm sad.
People talk about positivity
feeling good,
and I usually want
to drown those people,
but it... it feels good.
Oh, you poor, sweet,
emotionally stunted dumb-dumb.
You know you can still be sweet
even when you're not playing
a flight attendant.
It's inside you, Ang.
I don't know.
Hey.
What would Camille say?
She'd say...
[Minnesotan accent] "Oh, you betcha!"
[Normal voice] I decided
Camille's from Minnesota.
Okay.
Oh, boy.
Okay, your nostrils
are the size of pancakes.
Are you nervous? Wait a minute.
Did you actually cheat back then?
DOUGLAS: Of course I did!
There was no lightning.
Where are we, the Great Plains?
I couldn't let my son beat me.
Douglas, why are you
so competitive with him?
You're not that way with the twins.
Nah, they were born
better than me at most things.
Fore!
You hooked it.
But not Xander.
Oh, when he was little, it was perfect.
He used to look up to me
like I was a superhero.
Then he got older,
and I don't know what the hell happened.
I don't know.
Maybe you were afraid
he'd stop looking up to you?
Well, I guess so.
I was so afraid of losing my little boy
that I... I actually lost him.
I screwed up, okay?
And now it's just too late.
It's not too late, Douglas.
You have to tell him how you feel.
He doesn't need this stupid putt.
He needs his dad.
[Birds chirping]
[Exhales sharply]
Aah! God!
Dad, what the hell?
I thought you were a bear.
You thought a golf-course bear
put his paw on you?
Doesn't matter.
Look, um...
you don't have to do
any of this, Xander, okay?
You were right.
I did cheat that day.
I tried to keep you in my shadow
because I liked being the big dog.
That's my problem, not yours, okay?
But now you're the big dog,
and I think you're...
I think you're doing really well.
I am doing great.
I've got a $6,500
studio apartment in a mall,
just met a great girl.
Camille!
By the way, we gotta talk.
Not now, though.
This is your moment. You go.
The point is,
I should have told you this
a long time ago,
but... I'm proud of you, son.
Thanks, Dad. That means a lot.
I'm happy to have you back in my life.
You too, Xan.
Come on.
Let's get out of here, huh?

Dad, hold on.
I want to sink this putt... for me.
Okay.

It shouldn't be your thing.
Those kids need to be punished, okay?
Jack is gonna get bigger,

[Chuckling] Oh, yeah, see,
I'm no... I'm not really huge
into discipline.
My approach is more improvisational.
I keep it light and unexpected,
like jazz.
- Jazz?
- Yeah, jazz.
Like, skibbee-doo-wop,
boopity-boop-boop.
