00:00 I know a VP position opened up in our Pittsburgh office and I'm the top pick.
00:07 What am I going to do in Pittsburgh?
00:08 Be my what?
00:11 I finally have a man to take home for the holidays.
00:13 I don't have to listen to my mother preach to me about how I'm going to be a spinster
00:17 or a lesbian or both.
00:20 I don't think this is going to work.
00:21 What?
00:22 I don't think we're going to work.
00:23 What?
00:24 I have to stay focused to advance in my career.
00:25 He's a jerk.
00:26 I knew he was suited to be Trump.
00:27 I just can't go home all alone.
00:30 I just can't face it.
00:31 Is that what would make you happy right now, to bring home a man?
00:35 My name is Hillary.
00:36 I need to hire a fake fiancé to bring home to my family for Thanksgiving.
00:39 I guess we'll run a background check thingy.
00:42 I'm passionate, athletic, I'm spontaneous.
00:44 You know where I get a fake passport?
00:47 I do have irritable bowel syndrome.
00:49 That's just sad.
00:50 Why don't you tell us a bit about yourself?
00:52 My name is David.
00:53 I'm an actor.
00:54 Perfect.
00:55 This is nuts.
00:56 We meet face to face.
00:57 Hi.
00:58 You clean up real good.
00:59 Thank you.
01:00 You look nice yourself.
01:01 My parents are very excited that you are a lawyer.
01:04 Yeah, I don't know if I'm going to be able to pull that off.
01:06 You're an actor.
01:07 Act.
01:08 Oh, you're here, sweetie.
01:10 We finally get to meet Jason.
01:13 Oh, you're part of the family now.
01:16 I thought you said this was family only.
01:18 I didn't want the whole town to think that you were going to be his spinster forever.
01:23 What kind of cases do you do?
01:24 Come on, Dad.
01:25 We spend enough time in the office already.
01:27 Doing all that lawyering.
01:29 I am parched.
01:31 What's going on with you and Jason?
01:32 No kiss, no hug?
01:34 You know, your father and I make love three times a week.
01:36 My ears are bleeding.
01:38 Jason's a good catch.
01:39 You've got to sink tooth and nail into keeping him.
01:41 Are you two going to kiss?
01:42 No.
01:43 You ready?
01:47 Jason, what are you doing here?
01:52 Happy holidays, everybody.
01:53 She concocted this whole thing because she's terrified of disappointing you.
01:58 She's kind.
01:59 She's beautiful.
02:00 All you need is love.
02:01 You do love me, right?
02:05 Oh, wow.
02:08 You like David.
02:09 What?
02:10 Hillary, where are you going?
02:13 I'll call you a cab.
02:17 I'll call you a cab.
02:18 [applause]
02:21 (upbeat music)
