(In the opening! We see some crackers smashing! We cut to Angelica who's making crumbs out of them! We then hear Charlotte talking on the phone!)
Charlotte: ...is very exciting to me! The only reason I'm not at this meeting is that it's Passover! And I have to! Passover your highness! It's a Jewish holiday! Well! It's hard to explain actually! I guess it's about freedom! Oh No! Your highness! That's not a dig at monarchy!
(While Charlotte is busy talking on the phone! Angelica is shown putting jam on crackers! Charlotte places a cracker with jelly on Charlotte's hand!)
Charlotte: [Charlotte turns to Angelica!] How many times do I have to tell you! (Over the phone a man is heard yelling!) Oh no! Your highness! Not you! You see my daughter... Oh!
(The man hangs up!)
Charlotte: Drat! I've just not insulted the Sultan of Brunei! (Charlotte turns to Angelica!) Angelica! What do you think you're doing?!
Angelica: Making crumbs! Want some? (Angelica holds out Angelica's hands which have crumbs on them!)
Charlotte: I told you not to touch that food until we get to Boris and Minka's house!
Angelica: I don't see why we have to go there anyway! They're Tommy's grandparents, not mine!
Drew: Angelica! Maybe you'll have fun! Passover's a very meaningful holiday!
Angelica: A holiday! Are there presents!
Drew: Well! No!
(Angelica frowns!)
Charlotte: Passover is about something much more exciting then presents! It's about freedom!
Angelica: Freedom! You mean like when you can do whatever you want, and no one can tell you not to!
Charlotte: Well! Sort of!
Angelica: I'm free! I'm free!
(Charlotte groans! The camera cuts to Didi and Stu driving behind!)
Stu: Deed! Is this ceremony really necessary! It's so boring!
Didi: Passover isn't boring! It's a very meaningful holiday!
Stu: Well! If it's so meaningful! How come there's no presents!
Didi: Stu! The Passover seder is a time for Jewish families to come together and retell the history of their people! We've been doing it for thousands of years!
Stu: Sounds boring to me!
(Didi shows an upset face! The next scene shows Minka and Boris arguing!)
Minka: Why do we always have to things your way! Mr. Big-Shot!
Boris: Because my way is right! That's why!
Minka: Phea!
Minka: Boris? (Minka begins to cry)
Didi: Stu! Don't mention my father's name! Can't you see how it upsets my mother!
Angelica: Maybe Mr. Grandpa Boris.
Minka: Boris?
(Sobbing)
Chaz: I dropped Chuckie in the playpen with Tommy. I Hope Its Ok. Hey, Where's Boris?
(Minka Crying Again)
Tommy: Hi. I'm Moses.
Phil: Now look what you done, Lillian!
Lil: You did it, Phillip!
Minka: Boris! You're making me flush!
Stu: I can't lead a Seder, Ok? I'm not Boris!
Minka: Boris? (Sobbing)
Didi: Stu, now you made my mother cry.
(Door slams!)
Hey!
So, every year at passover
We have a ceremony called a seder to celebrate moses
Leading the hebrews out of Egypt to freedom.
Wow, what a neat holiday.
I feel bad for pharaoh, though.
Shall we head downstairs and finish the Seder?
Finish the Seder?
I just told the entire story of passover.
I say we eat.
Minka makes the best matza ball soup
This side of minsk.
Boris, you're making me flush.
(Wind gusts)
What do we do now?
Have a seat, I'll tell another passover story.
About the hebrews wandering the desert
Before reaching the promised land?
No, no, no, no.
About how my Uncle Simon and Aunt Riva met
At the seder of Pincus the tailor.
This was back in the shtetl in smolensk-- oy, was it cold!
Anyway, Uncle Simon wasn't even supposed to be there
But his wagon wheel broke on a cobblestone
And he had to stay the night.
Now Aunt Riva was...
