2010 · 21 MIN · IMDB 7.6 · 258 VOTES · DIR. Barnet Kellman
Overview
Mother's Day for Frankie is anything but serene when she finds herself doing more for Mike and the kids and less for herself. But she learns that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree when she escapes the family for a few hours to go to her mom's and ends up acting like a child by making her mom wait on her hand-and-foot. Meanwhile, Sue feels guilty when she steals a motivational magnet from a store whose message actually enticed her to shoplift it.

00:00:09 FRANKIE: Some days, from start to finish, just blow.
00:01:02 God, it's too early. You woke me up in the middle of my REM.
00:01:57 Chick stuff here, feelings, whatever. Love, Axl.
00:02:51 Yo, Pops, H.F.D. How about a game of hoops later?
00:03:51 MIKE: Don't know where it is. - Yes, you do. It's under the sink.
00:04:45 I thought I'd give them time to find me something nice.
00:05:45 - Yeah, okay. I'm in kind of a hurry here. BRICK: Hey, Dad?
00:06:38 What is with you kids? Stop goofing around and get serious.
00:07:29 Remember we read that they were replacing the floor in Assembly Hall?
00:08:27 And if you can find a picture of yourself to put in it, that'd be good too.
00:09:26 All right. I'll try to switch our lunch reservations to dinner.
00:10:26 - I broke a commandment. - Oh.
00:11:27 FRANKIE: And about this time on Father's Day...
00:12:13 Okay, two glasses. You got me.
00:13:05 Well, I know how much you love dried apricots and raisins.
00:14:12 Hey, Mom, I'm thirsty. Can you bring me a pop or something?
00:15:14 No chips?
00:16:09 "Can I eat this? Where's my raincoat?"
00:16:52 You think I wouldn't wanna have a house all to myself?
00:17:39 What about me says I'm the kind that wants to blow something up...
00:18:43 GIRL: Pull around.
00:19:43 - Mother's Day? - Yeah, Mother's Day.
00:20:36 Well, you can't overthink it.
00:21:26 It's kind of like Father's Day for mothers.
