Uh, is your dad anything like his character on this show?

I think there's elements that sort of believe the rial Eugene Levy?

I think particularly when it comes Thio there's, you know, it's part of the show.

Um, and my dad has very particular eating habits.

Things have to roll out a certain way if you're gonna be dining with my dad, particularly at a restaurant.

Jean, you're a little persnickety when you when you're ordering food, I have I don't know whether it comes with age, whether you become just kind of a curmudgeon, the older you get.

But listen, you know when I when I'm going out, apparently I'm an embarrassment at times to my face.

It just the whole experience has to roll out with the precision of a royal procession in order for it all to sort of just want things cooked.

Okay, That's sure you're getting things cook.

That doesn't sound like that's the problem.

You know, I don't think that's the problem.

I'm saying that when you're going out and paying a lot of money for food, you just want to make sure that you're getting what you order.

So I get I mean, I I get I get Sometimes I I lose patients.

Well, it was a I've erased it from my memory.

So I was celebrating my 50th and it was a bit careful, Andy.

And anyway, the service was kind of slow, slow, slow, slow, slow by the end of the night.

Now we're waiting for coffee, and now it's 20 minutes and we're waiting for coffee.

And I see the waiter walking back and forth going to this table that table this table, that table, that table's e just need to interject just to sort of color it a little bit when things go wrong in a restaurant with my dad.

So you find yourself slowly sort of sliding under the table is the night goes on.

That is so not true Because I'm just the picture of civility when I'm when I'm on the table.

I did go up to the waiter at one point, made a bee line for the waiter and said simply, This is the worst service I've ever had in my life.

And you are the reason for it because you are the server, okay?

And I'm telling you, picture of civility, just It was really horrible you apparently I was an embarrassment to the table when I got back.

I mean, you are dealing with a table full of Canadians.

So the rest of us, we're just like we're so sorry.

Sorry, e, but it was a passive aggressive.

So all we've learned so far is that you're very picky when you go to a restaurant and you constantly lose your temper.

What we've learned about that's that's pretty close.
