      That's how I would think too, if my folks barely survived the Holocaust, and many of their loved ones had to be sacrificed so that a few could survive and carry on the race. Especially if the USA is just a place he's at to stay away from the people who want to kill him. And he's more interested in the afterlife than the current here and the now. Yeah, I would talk like that too. It's the prudent course of action when your very survival is a warzone, and nothing can be taken for granted, anti-Semitism is a real treat, and losing a wife because she'd rather stay behind at a charity function she started even though someone went out of her way to break a legally binding silence to warn them of a 90% probability of a terrorist attack in that city. If I were him, I wouldn't even be negotiating like that. No way. And I might just flee the country for a little bit.

      Well, it got a fast laugh out of me too, but when I actually thought about it, Larry is right. Sure, he's being selfish by leaving LA and leaving his wife alone in a possible terrorist attack. What's more selfish is too risk the death of both just so you can do some Public Image benefit. Short term gain.
      This scene really just encapsulates what makes Larry so much of a unique character. Whereas most people take the obvious truths too seriously, Larry rejects it. And he's willing to argue just for the sake of it. He's the ultimate Devil's Advocate. He's a Jester.

      All she does is complain, nag, and blame Larry for everything.

    Cheryl exhibits the typical American attitude here, I mean Alanis Morissette and all. Ha!

    It’s funny how Cheryl is more offended that Larry wants to go golfing at pebble beach with the existential terrorist threat being her main concern THEN, but not that realizing the stupidity of her insisting that she stay for her benefit...which is way more ridiculous an idea than Larry going golfing...by himself. 😂😂😂👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    Fabulous!
    Everyone has a brother whose best friend is with the CIA and heard it from the top but you MUSTN'T tell anyone.
    That's exactly how it works.
    Priceless, wonderful comedy.
