And Jim never vomits at home. Did the wife think he was cheating?
shareGood point! And Jim was an upper-middle class WASP that was Tom Cruise's father in Risky Business and Robert Downey's father in Less Than Zero. Very likely!
shareIt is a parody of a coffee commercial of the time. The guy would only drink one cup at home because his wife's coffee sucked, but while they are visiting another couple he indulges in a second cup.
shareHa, ha, this!^^^^
I totally remember that commercial.

Thanks! Not being American, I never would have known that. Here's the Airplane scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRi6POTSbW4
shareThe joke is referring to the coffee commercial, but I think the scene is hilarious even without that reference. The way he looks at his wife and then hurls again is awesome. Classic.
