You've got some to say to me, say it.
You want me to say it?
Yes!
I don't like you people.
Nice wood. Good table.
Hey, I already ordered for us.
Great thanks.
So! Mr. Paredes—

[cough] Sir!
I haven't seen you since the holidays.
How's the new year been?
Jerry,
You know, I treasure my monthly brunches with my daughter.
What made you think you could insert yourself this time?
OK, I'm just going to say it.
Jerry, please.
Ever since I stayed over at your home over Christmas,
you've been really cold to me, Mr. Paladus
You know, things are getting serious between me and Nina,
so I think we should just talk it out.
Man to man.
Oh, yeah.
Man to man. -Yeah.
You got something to say to me? Say it.
You want me to say it? Yes.
Yes.
I don't like you people.
Dad!
There it is.
I knew it.
He didn't mean it like that.
Oh, I absolutely mean it like that.
It's been bugging me ever since that breakfast.
Breakfast? What?
If you can't accept me for who I am
that's your problem
because I'm not changing
the way I eat cereal.
Oh, my God.
There we were all gathering
for a Christmas breakfast when you, a guest in my house.
take a bowl
and pour milk first
and then cereal?
If you think for one second I will allow this kind of behavior in my family
Ohh, guess again.
This is how I was raised.
Which is why this will never work!
Perhaps we're letting emotions get the best of us.
If I could just explain why eating cereal, milk first is better.
We're really doing this?
Your cereal is always crunchy.
But you don't get enough!
Well I pour as I go.
It's one perfect serving, and then another.
What a waste of time!
When you eat tamales, do you open them all at once? No!
You eat them one by one.
Why am I eating tamales?
Bad example when you eat Korean barbecue.
OK, you don't just put all of the meat on the grill.
You cook a portion at a time.
Otherwise, the meat becomes overcooked.
Soggy cereal is overcooked brisket.
I like soggy cereal.
Says no one.
It's too much milk.
Milk is the healthiest part of eating cereal!
Alright,
Who is ready to eat? We got some pancakes over here.
Thank you.
a breakfast burrito
and then a bowl and some milk.
Can I get you guys anything else?
Boy, you've got some nerve.
Babe, I thought we agreed this was like an at home only thing.
You knew about this?
Excuse me. Can I get the cereal box, please?
No!
Do not get him the box, because no one eats it that way.
Enough!
Dad, I know Jerry isn't like us
and we are different in so many ways,
some odder than others,
but I love him
and someday we might even get married.
The world is different now.
Some people eat cereal, milk first.
And Jerry's a good guy
and that's all that should matter.
Your kids
Imagine them doing this at school.
They'll be harassed.
We can't live in fear
of what the world thinks.
I know you want what's best for me
and Jerry
he's the best.
I may never understand you, Jerry,
but I love my daughter.
So for her sake, can you please just not do it in front of me?
It really ruins my appetite.
Sure.
Thank you.
Let it go, man.
Just drink your damn milk.
