Family (ഫാമിലി)

- You ready. Here we go. - Born ready. Come on.

They're gonna be surprised.

- Let's do it. - Straighten your cane.

A five, six, seven, eight.

["Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" by The Jackson 5 playing]

Hey, kids. Kids, it's time for the annual Christmas video.

Uh, not right now, Mom.

What are you talking about? You used to love these.

The key word being "used to."

I think we're too old for that. It's kind of embarrassing.

How about you, buddy? Come on. Wyatt, can you hear me?

Grab your guitar. Let's do this.

You just made me die in the Dwarf Mines.

How about joining us in the physical world?

Five minutes.

I tried the physical realm… I will take the digital realm.

- Miles? - Miles.

- You with us, buddy? - Miles.

- Pickles. - Where is Pickles?

- Oh God. - Pickles.

The tree is not your territory.

Oh, honey, watch out. Your cane. You're hooked. You're hooked.

I'm okay. We're okay.

Hey, Bill, when did this family give up on Christmas?

New rule in this house. No more tinsel.

I mean, CC used to just love making those holiday videos.

I mean, this stuff just gets everywhere.

And Wyatt was a natural performer. He had moves like Jagger.

How does so much pee come out of that tiny, little dog?

I worry that we're all kind of disconnected.

Sorry, did you ask me something?

- Hmm. Sorry? - What? Hmm.

- It's fine. - I can't hear-- What?

- No. No. - Oh.

- Okay. - Good night.

Good morning, Los Angeles. Only three days till Christmas,

and another hot holiday season here in the Southland.

Don't forget us, Santa Claus.

Seventy-six degrees, and the mercury is rising.

Speaking of Mercury, make sure to look at the sky tonight

for a once-in-a-lifetime planetary alignment.

And of course, keep listening to 99.3 KMCG to catch the Christmas spirit.

Okay. Really good ideas, team. But don't do anything without me.

I'll get after it when I get in.

CC!

Oh my goodness.

Do you think it's good for you to live like this?

Mom, I'm trying to get ready for my game.

I don't need a clean-room lecture.

It all ties together. A disorganized room means a--

A disorganized mind. Yes, I know.

It affects everything, including your soccer.

More importantly, your grades.

If I hope to play for the national team,

I need to focus on practice, not cleaning my room.

Heads up.

You're not supposed to use your hands.

In the kitchen, 12 minutes.

Hey, Bill?

- Bill. You okay? - Yes. Yes.

I'm hanging out. You know how much the baby loves the Camaro.

- Oh, the baby. - Where's Mommy?

You driving it to work now that it's done?

- Show it off? - You kidding me?

You put this much time into a car, you don't drive it.

I mean, you barely even touch it. You just bask in its power and beauty.

When you're done basking,

can you make sure Wyatt is up and dressed and in the kitchen ready for the meeting?

Spock, your work was impeccable as always.

But I figured out why that lens you fabricated isn't refracting properly.

You forgot to square the C.

Your work is exquisite.

No, my 1999 PSA-graded 10 holo Charizard is exquisite.

I am envious of that card indeed.

Wyatt, family meeting downstairs. Let's go!

Who's this? Are these your smart friends?

The algebros?

Guys, I gotta go. Spock, tell Elon he owes me another one.

So I was just thinking, maybe after school today, we can hang out.

I can teach you how to drive.

Gasoline engines are an abuse of science.

And you know this. I'm too scared to drive.

I'm also in the middle of a lot of prep for my Yale interview.

I really can't slack off.

Totally get it. Totally get it.

Can you, uh, can you help me with this problem?

- I'm kidding. You can't help me. - No, I can't.

Okay, I'm calling this meeting to order.

We have a major few days ahead of us.

- CC, do I have your attention? - Yeah, I'm looking for my homework.

Looking for it like a completed assignment,

or like school starts in 20 minutes, and you need to get started?

That'll be option B, Mom.

When do you find out if you got into college early?

I would really love to help you pack.

I detect sarcasm, which is universally regarded as the lowest form of humor.

Let's, uh, move this along. You know if we talk too much, he just clenches up.

Right. Tomorrow is a big, big day for the Walkers.

We have Wyatt's Yale interview,

CC's championship soccer game. I have my huge presentation at work--

Don't forget about the Planetarium today after school.

I was getting to that. We're going to Wyatt's thing.

I have band practice.

Dad or Alive is playing at the school holiday party.

This could be my second chance.

I really don't wanna go to Wyatt's boring thing.

It's a quintuple planetary alignment.

It's a galactic confluence of the highest order of magnitude.

It's my interstellar white whale.

Okay, seriously, who's his real father?

Look, you guys might not care about Christmas, but I do.

So we are all going to the Planetarium this afternoon.

I have a cute holiday sweater. I want a picture.

We are gonna make a happy memory as a family.

Can this meeting be adjourned?

Meeting adjourned.

- Ava! - CC!

Go, CC! Go, CC! Go, CC!

Yo, hold on.

Yo.

- Yo, put your hands on the moneymaker. - Hey, I got it!

- I'm a Spartan! Ah! - Where the hell is he?

- I promise you-- - I am Hunter Drew!

I'm the Spartan!

Go, CC! Go, CC! Go, CC!

- Whoa. Walker. -

You're standing in the hallway and staring at Ariana?

Yo, Ariana! Dude, this kid's trying to creep!

I'm sorry. I promise--

You just got obliterated, son!

- -

You're a loser, Walker.

One, two, three.

Okay. Okay.

Uh, you-- Uh, cut, cut for a second.

Um, there's tension. Do you feel the tension in this room?

We gotta be loose. Toss your music. Toss your sheet music.

Get rid of it. Emma, why are you raising your hand?

Embrace the anarchy. Just call it out. What do you got?

How do we play the song without sheet music?

How did Luke Skywalker blow up the Death Star without his computer?

I don't know what that means. I was born in 2008.

Okay. Um…

Baxter?

- He used the Force. - Yes!

What's the Force?

The Force is this enigmatic energy

that's inside all of us, and it's good.

Guys, you're in a band. You're not individual players.

You guys are a thing. You're one thing.

So get out of your heads and get into everyone's heart.

You, walk a mile in her shoes. Walk a mile in his shoes.

Everybody, just try to feel what it means to be a collective.

Now, come on. Let's give Jack White the honor he deserves.

Go.

Drums, please.

Yeah.

Melody, strings.

Woodwinds. Bring it up. Let's go.

Who's feeling it?

Oh, boy.

Cymbals, get ready. Cymbals.

Did you feel that?

What-- That--

Something's going on. I gotta take just a second.

McCracken, you're in charge. Uh, run through "Jingle Bells."

I'll be right back.

Guys, what's up with the emergency Dad or Alive meeting?

Do not tell me, Lake, that you sprained your whammy wrist again.

No, we heard from a little TV show called So You Think You Can Rock?

- What? - We got the audition! Yeah!

Guys, do not mess with me. I'm super fragile right now.

There's a TV crew coming here to the school dance on Friday

for a live broadcast.

Dad or Alive is about to be famous!

What? This is insane!

- It's incredible. Come on! - Yes!

"Straight up, wait up, hold up, Mr. Lover Like Prince said, you're a sexy mother--"

You'll have to work harder to stump me on iconic ladies of the '90s, Gus, Gus.

You're so good.

- All your faves. - Thanks.

Would they be holiday cookies without M&M's?

Please. Give me some credit.

- Ah. There she is. Good morning, Kara. - Good morning.

Triple-shot juggernaut. Remixed just the way you like it.

- Oat milk? - Oh, yeah.

- Thank you. - We learned.

Do you believe this, boss? My son's snake bit me.

That's what I get for trusting the pet store.

They told me it was harmless. Turns out to be a water moccasin.

I'm so afraid it's gonna ruin the pitch.

No, not at all. I mean, you can barely even see it.

No one will notice.

- Oh, thanks. - Merry Christmas.

Is that who I think it is?
