It's a boy.
It's a girl.
Gomez!
What news?
Father, what is it?
Children, why do you hate the baby?
We don't hate him. We just wanna play with him.
Especially his head.
Children, do you think we love the baby more than we love you?
Do you think that when a new baby arrives, one of the other children has to die?
Well, that's just not true. [She sighs wistfully] Not anymore.
Oh, just sibling rivalry! Gomez, do you remember what we were like? I hated you!
I despised you!
I choked him until he lost consciousness and had to be put on a respirator!
I tied him to a tree and pulled out four of his permanent teeth!
When he was asleep, I opened his skull, and removed his brains!
You did?
Ah, brother!
Brother! [He flings Uncle Fester into the opposite wall, then grabs up about twenty knives conveniently lying on the table, flinging them all around Fester, with several right next to his head. Fester laughs hysterically through it all, although the last four are done with Gomez's back to him]
Children, you see?
You'll meet someone. Someone very special. Someone who won't press charges. I hope that someday you'll know the indescribable joy of having children, and of paying someone else to raise them.
I... I have needs!
...There's Thing!
It's not the same thing, I want legs, a body... a head.
TWO legs?
She makes me think of... volatile chemicals.
Truly, Fester? Has it finally happened at long last?
I don't know! I think so!
You know, when I first saw him, I thought he was from Europe.
You did?
It's true.
But I took a bath!
I'm making such a mess of things. Gomez! How do you do it? How can I be like you? How can I be... suave?
Woo her. Admire her. Make her feel like she's the most sublime creature on Earth.
Perfection achieved. We are the luckiest brothers on Earth. We are unworthy of such splendor, undeserving of such radiance.
Uh... that's right! We should have... ugly girls!
But with your looks, your charm... women must follow you everywhere!
Store detectives.
And I dreamed that when I met him that we would wait until our wedding night to give ourselves to one another, to make the ultimate sacrifice.
A goat?
Gomez! Morticia! Great news! Something impossible... a miracle!
The rash?
It's gone?
I'm engaged!
It was our mother's. She was buried with it.
[Debbie holds up a shovel]
I, Fester Addams, do hereby declare my un-ending love. [sobbing] I will worship you forever. I will devote my every waking moment to your happiness alone. [openly sobbing] Henceforth, I am your eternal and helpless slave.
Would you die for me?
Yes.
Promise?
Fester?
Uh-huh?
We may be together for a while.
All our lives, cara mia!
What?
Mon cher.
Speak English!
Pumpkin?
And if I have to be seen with you, we need to make some changes.
Changes?
I'm her husband.
Fester!
Gimme a kiss.
Gimme a 20.
FREEZE!
Pookie?
I tried to make it look like an accident. I tried to give you some dignity. But oh no, not you.
What are you saying?
I'm saying I want you dead and I want your money.
But... but... don't you love me?
Is that a no?
It's me, Gomez! I've tried to be someone I'm not. I live in shame... and the suburbs!
But you belong to Debbie! You're Debbie's love toy! You are Mr. Debbie!
I am an Addams!
Fester!
[They embrace]
My latest husband, my late husband, Fester.
The fool.
The corpse. And his adorable family. You took me in, you accepted me, but did any of you love me? Really love me?
Hands!
[The Addams family, all strapped into their electric chairs, are unable to raise their hands]
A birthday party! What a treat! And to think, I might have missed all this! What was I thinking of?
Physical pleasure.
Ooohhh!
Uncle Fester, do you miss Debbie?
Well... sometimes, late at night, I remember how she used to turn to me and say, "Jeez, Fester, go back to your room!"
Dementia! What a beautiful name!
It means "insanity."
My name is Fester. It means "to rot."
