"I can't believe the moment we get out of kid jail, our best friends decide to go in."
Louis Huang to Jessica Huang

"Kids" is the third episode of the fourth season of Fresh Off the Boat. It first aired on October 17, 2017.

Synopsis[]

With the realization that Eddie is finally mature enough to be left on his own, Louis and Jessica see the light at the end of their parenting tunnel and make plans to spend more time with friends Honey and Marvin. Until their neighbors announce a plan of their own: Marvin is getting his vasectomy reversed so the couple can conceive a baby. The Huangs do their best to dissuade them.

Quotes[]

Louis: Do you see what's happening here? The last of our three children has grown up.
Jessica: We're finally out of "kid jail."
Alison: I don't want to make things harder between us than they already are.
Eddie: Then why are you?
Alison: Because I can't just abandon my friendship with Evan. You and I splitting up... It's like he's a child of divorce.
Eddie: What do you know about divorce?
Alison: My parents are divorced.
Eddie: They are?
Alison: I talked to you about it all the time!
Louis: Come on. I've already taken a dangerous amount of Pepcid AC to combat the Asian Flush. Let's go big tonight!
Louis: Uh, actually, I can't drink because... well... I'm having some surgery tomorrow.
Jessica: Oh, my God. What for?
Marvin: I'm having my vasectomy reversed!
Honey: We want to have kids!
Louis: You nervous about the surgery? A reverse vasectomy sounds intense.
Marvin: No, no, no. Uh, it's a simple outpatient procedure. They... They just go down south, do a little snip-snip, loosen up my tubes, and then they take a capillary out of my neck, they take that capillary, fuse it to my tubes, probably with some kind of a heat gun, throw some stitches on it, and boom, Marvin's shooting bullets.
Marvin: I think it's time for us to hit the ol' road.
Jessica: Already? But we were gonna do dinner and karaoke.
Honey: I know, but Marvin needs to rest up for his procedure, and I have a gynecologist appointment tomorrow, just to make sure things are good on my end. I mean, they are, for sure. I don't want to get into details, but just know that I've never had a problem getting pregnant.
Alison: Can you tell him we can't be friends?
Eddie: No way, ex-boo. You're the one who broke up with me. This was your choice. You've got to be the bad guy.
Eddie: By the way, how'd you find this place?
Alison: Um, I know about it because we came here on our second date.
Eddie: Whaaat? Wait. You keep a picture of us in your purse? I thought you stopped liking me.
Alison: We're broken up, but I'm not trying to forget you. It's not like our time together meant nothing to me.
Louis: Well, they're exhausted from taking care of kids. Feeding them, changing their diapers. You remember what that's like, right?
Marvin: Right. Right.
Louis: You don't know what I'm talking about, do you?
Marvin: I don't! No, I never experienced any of this with Nicole. Her mother did all the heavy lifting. I just went to work, I came home, watched Carson's monologue, then went to sleep.
Louis: Well, that's not gonna fly with Honey.
Marvin: Oh, that's true. Yeah. Honey's part of that new, uh, Generation X I read about in Newsweek. They're progressive.
Eddie: Alison and I aren't back together, Evan. We're still broken up. I know she lied and said we're back together, but it's not her fault. It's mine. This all happened because I didn't want you two to be friends. I was trying to forget about her after our breakup and when I saw her in the house, I freaked. But I realized that I don't want to forget about her. We had some great times. So, I want you and her to be friends. And hopefully, she and I can be friends, too.
Honey: [singing "All That She Wants"] All that she wants is one baby, She's gone tomorrow, boy, All that she wants is one baby, a-yay-yay.
Marvin: My body, my choice!
Honey: You don't get respect by changing your mind last minute about having a baby!
Marvin: It's 1997. You can't tell a man what to do with his body!
Honey: I never thought I wanted kids, like, ever. But then I met you, and that changed. Look, you may not be sure you're ready, but together, we're ready.
Marvin: I think we are, too. So, let's untie these tubes and make a baby!
Honey: Ahh! [to Louis and Jessica] I say this with love, but please, never interfere in our lives again.
Jessica: I say this with love... No promises.
