00:00 My mother is an ultra successful immigrant businesswoman.
00:03 Your mortgage is going to be less than your rent.
00:06 You must be joking.
00:07 Oh, I never joke about business, Mrs. Khan.
00:09 She was not one to take no for an answer.
00:13 Amazing, and congratulations.
00:15 No one ever gave her the memo that Muslim women were supposed to be passive good girls.
00:18 This is my family in a nutshell.
00:20 The disco king, the troublemaker, JFK Jr. minus the plane crash,
00:23 the brainiac, the goth, the hippie, the greaser, and the metrosexual.
00:26 And me.
00:27 Oh my god, I love drag queens.
00:29 Oh no, I'm not, I'm an actor.
00:30 Shh, you're so beautiful until you talk.
00:32 Where's Layla?
00:33 God knows.
00:33 My dad's about to get a heart.
00:35 Just an idiot family, please.
00:37 These aren't even all of my siblings.
00:38 They're like a litter of cats.
00:39 Usually the stronger kittens eat the weaker ones.
00:43 I'm not going to eat anymore, I'm going to sleep.
00:45 I have your test results.
00:48 You are pregnant.
00:49 I didn't even get knocked up from a one night stand.
00:52 You're pregnant by a gay guy?
00:55 I'm, no, gay.
00:56 You knocked up my gay sister.
00:58 I'm still gay, I just happened to get pregnant.
00:59 We weren't gay on Halloween.
01:01 If you ever wonder what it's like running into your ex when you look like-
01:04 Layla?
01:05 Alina?
01:06 Hi, how are you?
01:08 Evidently better than you.
01:09 Ever since you were a kid, there was not one rule you did not want to break.
01:13 Layla, sweatpants.
01:14 It's too hot.
01:15 You don't want to be a bad Muslim.
01:16 My daughter plays basketball and my son is a cheerleader.
01:19 You're not supposed to be binge eating when you're pregnant, right?
01:26 When will you be healthy, son?
01:28 That's a good question.
01:28 We'll be doing that at tonight.
01:30 How do you say goodbye in Persian?
01:33 "Khafe shaw."
01:33 "Khafe shaw," everybody.
01:35 "Khafe shaw."
01:37 We're with the all-American family.
01:43 Trust me on this.
01:44 We're looking for Layla Jamshid-Pour. She's in labor.
01:48 Do you know which room she's in?
01:49 Is anyone of you the father?
01:50 I'm the father.
01:51 Oh, Lord.
