* BittersweetEnding: David makes peace with his father before he passes away. His marriage to Noreen is over, but his relationship with his children is much improved. He accepts his new job in New York, where he gets a lot more respect and people no longer throw food at him (a possible side-effect of the bow he carries for his new archery hobby). The film ends with David and the ''Hello America'' riding a Thanksgiving parade between the New York Fire Department and WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants - a position which he treats like a metaphor.
