Maura & Kate Ellis; two sisters who couldn't be any more different if they tried are united when their parents unexpectedly put their childhood home up for sale. It's time for one last party to mark the end of an era. And what a party it's going to be. Put the National Guard on standby... this is going to be a disaster.

Maura is a beautiful human being. She chose nursing as her vocation in life and spends her days off helping the homeless. But not everyone sitting on a street-corner is homeless, Maura.
Maura Ellis
You scored yourself a nice corner. Good job. Hi. I'm Maura Ellis. I'm not part of a religious group or anything. I'm just a nurse who likes to give back on her days off. You know, when you're living outdoors, skin cancer is a real concern. So I got you some sunscreen, and you, my friend, have some irregular moles.
Construction Worker
You're a very friendly person.
Maura Ellis
Wanna come to my house and take a shower? Maybe make a list of goals?
Construction Worker
Oh, I have a girlfriend.
Maura Ellis
Great. It's important to have a lady out there in the street. What do you call it, a road b**ch or something?
Construction Worker
Her name's Karen.
Maura Ellis
Your little mama? Your street wife? Anyway, I'm pretty good with sayings, so I make these cards for my sister, but I think maybe you could use one. Without the dark night, we would never see the bright stars.
Construction Worker
Is this from Twilight?
Maura Ellis
No, I made it up.
Construction Worker
Mmm, no, you didn't.
Maura Ellis
Yeah, I did.
Construction Worker
See you later.
Maura Ellis
Wait. Wait a minute. Hey! You're not homeless?
Construction Worker
You were on a roll.
Maura Ellis
Well, give me back the sunscreen so I can give it to an actual homeless person! Like this lady.
Store Manager
Fu*k off! I'm the manager here.
Maura Ellis
Oh for two.
Clip 2
Oh for the love of... is there nothing that a pug won't eat? I mean, a waxing strip coated with someone's pubic hair? Is that something that sounds even remotely like a yummy snack? No.
Dana
Kate? Is this your waxing strip?
Kate Ellis
I don't know, Dana. It must be a client's.
Dana
My dog had this in his faeces. And before I could stop him, he ate the poop with the waxing strip in it again. And then he threw that up.
Kate Ellis
Okay.
Dana
You know how many times a day I kiss that dog on the mouth?
Kate Ellis
An unsettling amount.
Dana
Now when I kiss him, I'm gonna picture that he ate some stranger's pubes. And it's gonna affect my relationship with him.
Clip 3
Dave Blackman. He's a real dirt-bag. But don't just take my word for it. I'll allow him to introduce himself!
Dave Blackman
Holy Moses with his balls out. Is that Kate Ellis I'm looking at?
Kate Ellis
Maybe.
Dave Blackman
Hey, look at you. Come on... Dave Blackman! I was a senior, you were a junior. I lingered back so we could be seniors together? You were my first non-hand I ever did it with.
Kate Ellis
Oh, my God. Yes. I swallowed your earring. That was a true honour.
Dave Blackman
Oh, thank you. Thank you!
Clip 4
Flirting. It can be innocuous, harmless, innocent. Or it can be hardcore. In Maura's case, it's a little bit of both. But she's sprinkled a generous pinch of weird into the mix. Take it away, Maura.
Kate Ellis
Oh, sweaty man. We have to flirt. Slow it down for a groove-by. Hey. What urp? Hey. Burying your wife?
James
Um...
Kate Ellis
Can I ask you something? My sister and I...
Maura Ellis
Hey!
Kate Ellis
Are busy professionals, looking for an "yard artisan" to do some work on our bushes?
Maura Ellis
You are working. We will not bother you. Sorry.
Kate Ellis
[To MAURA]
Jump on my bush joke. I just made that up! Put another Jenga on it.
Maura Ellis
I bet working on other people's bushes really makes you wanna whack your weeds.
Kate Ellis
That was dirtier than I thought.
Maura Ellis
I'm sorry. That got dirty really fast.
James
Don't apologise, I... I like that. I... I... I actually own this house.
Maura Ellis
You live here with your wife?
Kate Ellis
Your wife's a b**ch for not helping you.
James
Uh, I... I'm single, actually.
Maura Ellis
Oh! Well, we're not making fun of you. We're flirting with you, because you're really sweaty.
James
I'm a solid guy. I don't mind being the butt of your jokes.
Maura Ellis
Good. You will be the butt of our jokes, because your butt is no joke.
James
Okay.
Maura Ellis
I'm not laughing at that butt. I'll laugh with your butt. I'm gonna laugh in that butt. I'm gonna laugh. I'm gonna... I love to... My butt's funny, too, but your butt is really serious. Your butt is like an hour-long drama. Your butt's as serious as The Wire. I mean, I can't wait to watch your butt on DVD. I'm gonna binge-watch your butt when I have the flu.
Kate Ellis
Time to drive away.
James
Great.
Maura Ellis
Yeah, um, so...
Kate Ellis
You ever buy Poppin' Fresh Dough?
James
Yeah.
Kate Ellis
Remember the sound it makes?
James
Yeah.
[As MAURA drives away, KATE pulls up her top to reveal her bra and makes a popping sound with her mouth]
Clip 5
Kate and Maura's parents have moved to an up-market retirement village. The girls do not approve. Not one bit.
Kate Ellis
This nursing home better not smell urine-y, like a death-cafeteria.
Maura Ellis
It's not a nursing home, it's an adult community. Its called Village Du Soleil, which in French means, "in the sun." Old people aren't supposed to be in the sun! So stupid.
Kate Ellis
Yeah, Mom and Dad, eat a pyramid of d*cks.
Maura Ellis
Sit on a bunch of pinecones.
Kate Ellis
If I see Mom in one of those one-chair beauty shops, I will full-out BJ a hot curling iron.
Maura Ellis
Rowdy seniors and booze by a lake? That's a recipe for disaster.
Kate Ellis
If they have shower chairs at this granny farm, I will slit my throat and put it on YouTube.
Clip 6
Not only has Deana sold baby pictures of her two daughters to a man at the flea market, she's now trying to placate her off-spring with memory sticks containing all of the photographs she sold.
Deana Ellis
It feels good to purge. And we downloaded all our pictures!
Maura Ellis
You threw away our baby pictures?
Deana Ellis
No! We sold them to the gay man at the flea market who turns them into funny cards. And your father put them on this.
[DEANA holds up two memory sticks]
Kate Ellis
So I just stick this up my vagina and then I can see the pictures?
Deana Ellis
Oh, Katherine Anne. Stop.
Clip 7
Kate & Maura are reading their childhood diaries aloud. Kate's highlight? Jeff showing her his uncircumcised penis. Maura's diary just can't compete with that level of intensity!
Kate Ellis
"Last night at the party, I danced so hard my bra was soaking wet. Jeff and I were flirting, and then he said, 'Let me show you something.' So we went to my room, and guess what he showed me? A ween that is still wearing its hat." Mmm. Your turn.
Maura Ellis
Wow. How many times did you have sex in this house?
Kate Ellis
You should have had sex here. Having sex in your childhood bedroom is a rite of passage. You chose the party mom role to protect yourself from fun.
Clip 8
Mr. and Mrs. Geernt are the purchasers of Kate & Maura's childhood home. They’re filthy rich and he's a stuck-up a**hole. Oh and he's quite clearly gay. Nothing wrong with that, but he's in denial. And married. All kinds of wrong.
Kate Ellis
Is that dress from Target?
Mrs. Geernt
Um, no...
Kate Ellis
'Cause I've seen one like it at Target.
Mrs. Geernt
I've never been there before.
Kate Ellis
You know there was a murder here, right?
Mrs. Geernt
No. What? I don't.
Kate Ellis
Major cult stuff. Yeah.
Mrs. Geernt
What, like a mass murder?
Kate Ellis
Seven?
Mrs. Geernt
Okay.
Kate Ellis
Seven sets of twins. So, fourteen.
Mrs. Geernt
I'm sorry. What?
Kate Ellis
You know your cousin's gay, right?
Mrs. Geernt
That's not my cousin. That's my husband.
Kate Ellis
That's your husband? You're gonna have some surprising sh*t go down in about ten years. You ever feel like maybe you peaked too soon?
Mrs. Geernt
No, I don't.
Kate Ellis
'Cause its a long life. And I would hate to see you out there blowing hobos at forty.
Clip 9
Funny but they're both right. Geernt sounds like both a queef on a yoga ball and the last sound you hear before your sh*t your pants.
Kate Ellis
What kind of last name is Geernt? Geernt. Sounds like a queef on a yoga ball.
Maura Ellis
Yeah. More like the last sound you hear before you sh*t your pants.
Clip 10
Kate & Maura are trying on dresses for the party at a local boutique. Kate has put hers on back to front. The cups are on her shoulder blades and the zipper is like an autopsy incision; from navel to sternum!
Kate Ellis
Hmm, what do you think, Brayla?
Brayla
That looks amazing on you.
Kate Ellis
I never met a Brayla before.
Brayla
I know, like, three.
Kate Ellis
Oh, so you're trending. God bless. You know, it's a lot of under teat but I think I'm getting away with it.
Brayla
Also it's, um, on backwards.
Clip 11
Either Maura or Kate have to play the part of "Party Mom" at this shindig to keep everybody safe. Maura asks Kate to do it, Kate agrees but she's really not happy about it.
Maura Ellis
Will you be the party mom tonight? So I can let my freak flag fly?
Kate Ellis
I would love to.
Maura Ellis
Yeah? Because your face is telling me something else.
Kate Ellis
That would bring me joy.
Maura Ellis
You know what? Forget it. It'll just get screwed up. I'll do it.
Kate Ellis
You don't think I can take care of people? I am an actual mom! I got this!
Maura Ellis
Okay, but the party mom can't drink.
Kate Ellis
What fresh fu*kery is that?
Maura Ellis
Does a mother drink at her kid's birthday party?
Kate Ellis
Yeah, if there's a lifeguard.
Clip 12
Here's an excellent illustration of how people over the age of forty think their party is going to go versus how it actually turns out.
Kate Ellis
Fun train pulling in! Booze, booze! Whoo-hoo!
Party Guest
And when my dad finally died, he actually glowed.
Clip 13
You can't start a party with Billy Idol's Mony Mony. Apparently. That's like starting with anal. Apparently.
Kate Ellis
Hey, you can't start with Mony Mony. That's like starting with anal.
Maura Ellis
Oh.
Clip 14
James has slipped in the bedroom and fallen on Maura's ballerina music box which has gone... right up his rectum. Bit embarrassing, really. And really quite painful, it seems.
Maura Ellis
Okay. I'm just gonna roll you over so I can examine your rectum.
James
Okay. Stop. Stop saying rectum.
Maura Ellis
I'm gonna get it out, whatever it is.
James
Mmm-hmm. Okay.
Maura Ellis
So I'm just gonna twist it, and pull it out slowly.
James
Mmm-hmm.
Maura Ellis
Just breathe.
[MAURA twists the object and it begins to play a melody]
James
It's a music box.
Maura Ellis
Yep. It's my ballerina music box.
James
Mmm-hmm.
Maura Ellis
And she's in high-fifth position, which is why she went in so easily.
