Hey, you can't do
that with an empty mug.

What, no belly
dancers this time?

And where is everyone else?

Well you got me, old friend.

Oh, right.

I'm good, thanks.



Come on, I'll drive you home.

And leave all of this.

I'll have Charlie,
Jamie and Georgia

pack it all up and
bring it over later.

Listen, by the time
we kill the champagne,

I don't think you should
let me back in the car.

Oh, geez, you're
not spending the night.

I'm sorry. I draw the line.

Why? I mean,
you're walking to...

It's
our thousandth date.

Surprise!

Oh my God.

Give me a heart attack.

Happy retirement, Sweetheart.

Did we
surprise you, Grandpa?

You sure did, Kiddo.

Happy retirement, Dad.

Richard, congratulations.

Thanks.

I'm really gonna miss
working for you, Richard.

Greta, don't get all
mushy on me, come on.

Oh, I'm not.

Oh you sneaky son of a...

All I said was no
belly dancers this time.

Whoa.

Oh.

Let's start this party.

Yeah!

Yeah, Richard.

70 is the new 50,
Richard, congratulations.

- Whoa.
- Oh.

That was a close call.

Nice reaction time.

I also have a very
impressive backhand.

I can see that.

Have we met?

Dad, this is Annie.

She lives a couple
doors down from me.

Her grandson plays with Sabrina.

Hello.

Congratulations
on your retirement, Richard.

Thank you.

It was really nice
to meet you, Annie.

Excuse me.

Aha, yes.

Every retiree needs this.

A user manual for retirement.

You're next.

No, no.

Oh, Richard, this
is from me... to you.

Oh my.

What you get him,
Greta, a bazooka?

Hey, Kenny, ba-boom.

Can't take you anywhere.

Oh.

Be gracious.

Now I know you don't fish,

but I figure you'll
have the time.

Oh, he'll be
fishing all right.

Like Ahab and the whale.

You read my mind, Greta.

Thank you.

Here.

Here, Dad.

We thought it was
time for you to, uh,

you know, rekindle
an old passion.

Ah.

Here's something to
go with it, Grandpa.

What's that, Sweetie?

What is it, Richard?

It's a gift card for
life drawing classes.

Dad used to draw before he
went to business school.

We thought you could
pick it back up again.

Drawing nudes,
now that's a gift.

Do you like it, Grandpa?

It's great.

Mommy, what's a nude.

You
were quiet tonight.

Who needs to be loud when
you got your friend around.

I know. I know,
Kenny's just sad.

Sad?

More like... jilted.

I don't
think his wife would

appreciate that description.

Do you think
she'd even notice?

No, I'm just talking
about how he's gonna cope,

now that his only buddy's
no longer at the office.

He'll manage.

You don't have to do that.

And have you be a
walking fashion disaster?

Not while I'm here.

Tell me I did the right thing.

That I made the right choice.

Can I get some soda, please?

Sure, why not?

Yay!

Oh come on,
grandfather's prerogative.

Oh sure, let's see how
that flies with Chelsea.

She still hasn't gotten
over the buttons.

The buttons?

Yes, the buttons.

What you renamed those french
fries for our granddaughter

at age three so she wouldn't
give away what you fed her.

Oh those buttons.

Oh those buttons.

Hey, Kiddo, I don't think
it's such a good idea after all.

How about

you take

an extra ride on the
flying horses instead?

All right?

Okay.

Oh you're such a good kid.

Join me, Grandpa.

I'll be right over
there taking pictures.

Okay.

What?

I need you to participate.

I just don't think
it's a good time, Hon.

Well it's never
gonna be a good time.

Hello.

Hey.

Mm, I think that's enough
screen time for both of you.

Aw, but we didn't
get all the candy.

My biggest regret was your
ever getting that darn thing.

All right, all right.

Reading practice for you.

There's a desk in
my old bedroom.

I thought you'd
be all over this.

Everything worked
out okay at the park?

Oh yeah, she's crazy
about that carousel.

You didn't feed her any of
that junk they sell, did you?

How could you
even ask me that?

I have
no idea, Mr. Buttons.

I told you.

I've reformed.

Well, on that note, I'm
going to go check on her.

So, what's up?

You two look like
you're about ready

to make a corporate pitch.

No.

We've actually been talking,

and wanted to share
this with you.

It's 10 minutes from here,

and there'd be no more
worrying about the snow

and the upkeep of the house

and all the space
that you don't need.

You should see the courts
they've got, Richard,

both indoors and
out, cement and clay.

Yeah, this is a
one-minute stroll

from where you'd be living.

We think this
could be a win-win.

A win-win?

Dad, I think it'd
be a good change.

This is home.

Let's take a drive,
hmm, check it out.

I'm good.

We can register now.

I think you've
done enough already.

Hey.

Both of you, stop.

I tried to tell you.

I'm gonna get some air.

I'll be upstairs.

Dad.

What do you want from me?

I know this is a
tough transition,

but you gotta talk to me.

I am talking. What else
do you want me to say?

You're keeping it bottled
up. It's not healthy.

Kiddo, I appreciate your
concern, but I'm fine, really.

I'll go get Sabrina.

She's right, you know?

Ellie, we're fine.

Oh will you stop that?

Stop what?

Stop pretending to be
this Rock of Gibraltar.

I'm not the Rock of-

I just don't express
every last feeling

I have like some of us.

Oh.

And another ulcer is born.

Will you stop?

You gonna do it?

Good, it's time you got
back to your first love.

Oh, sorry.

All right.

There's a free easel over here.

Welcome to the class.

Thank you.

Good morning.

We will begin with
a one-minute pose.

Spandex.

One of God's great gifts.

Mm-hmm.

What, you don't
enjoy the view?

Kenny.

When you're no longer
interested, my friend,

it's time to close shop.

How old are you again?

15.

But trapped in
this decrepit body.

Oh, oh now, that's
yummy.

You're gonna get
arrested for lewd thoughts.

If that was a crime,
the whole male population

of this city would be
stuffed into Rikers.

At least that's where our
wives woulda stuck us.

Richard, hang in there.

We're all just passing
through, aren't we?

Yeah.

Well.

More like, um,

passing gas.

Oh my God, oh stop, please.

Jesus.

Well then you stop
with that circle of life

Lion King horse shit.

So, why don't you tell me
how it went this morning?

Some nice views?

Jesus, Kenny, it's not
like it's a goddam peep show.

Well?

I don't think you'd
have found it titillating.

Okay, I get it.

You're doing it for the art.

That's good.

That's good.

You used to be big
into drawing, right?

You wanted to be an
artist or something?

Yeah, and then I
found my true calling.

So how does your hand feel
after three hours of drawing?

A little sore.

Sore?

That's all you can say, is sore?

Well that's what
you always say

when you come home from skating.

Oh, are you comparing
drawing with my axel jumps?

Well, no, but.

You better not.

Anyway, I'm glad
you're back at it,

and I hope it's helping.

Aw.

Okay, okay.

Good morning.

Please begin the
minute pose... now.

Big guns.

Oh, what were you rummaging
around up there for?

Just wanted to
see what my drawings

looked like way back when?

Oh, and?

Lucky for us I chose
accounting instead.

Have a good run.

How could it be her?

Come on.

I don't know, but the
drawing is, was, of her.

Am I losing my mind, Kenny?

Sometimes I imagine
things, you know.

Imagine?

Like what?

Nothing, nothing.

So you're saying this is the
same girl you told me about?

The one you nearly
threw it all away for?

Jesus H, this is some
serious Twilight Zone shit.

You're not helping.

What do you want me to say?

I don't know.

Oh my God, what
would Ellie think?

She'd think you
retired too soon.

Seriously.

Did you ever tell
her about this girl?

Maybe in passing.

I certainly never
expounded on the details.

Wise man.

So what do I do?

About what?

This girl?

Who am I to judge?

Follow your fucking heart.

Oh, oh, oh, that's it.

There?

Right there, yes,
that's where it is.

Oh.

Better?

Uh-huh.

That's why I married you.

Well, that and
reaching the top shelf.

It's lucky I can do this too.

Otherwise, you might
consider replacing me

with a stepladder.

Believe me, I've
considered it.

Hey, do you remember
that girl I told you about

a long time ago, the one
just before business school?

The model in class yesterday

looked exactly like her.

That's funny.

I thought so too.

And... stop.

We'll take a five-minute break

before our final
pose of the morning.

Wow, I really love
what you do with my eyes.

Can I see?

It's, that's not how I posed.

I have to leave.

I have to go, I'm sorry.

Uh, for our final
pose this morning,

we'll just be having one model,

so please adjust your
easel if necessary.

What the hell
you doing, Richard?

I don't know.

Jesus, pull your
shit together here.

I'm trying to.

Look, I don't know why
she reacted that way.

She coulda just said, nice
drawing or some crap like that.

None of this makes any sense.

Look, where is this
drawing anyway?

Let me see it.

I threw it away.

You.

Aw, man, what are you doing?

You told me to
follow my heart.

Now first off I told you
to follow your fucking heart.

And secondly, that didn't
include acting like a schmuck.

So what should I do?

Well here's some
sage advice, you ready?

At the next class, you
simply introduce yourself

to this poor girl
and you apologize

for freaking her out previously.

You just say that she
looks a lot like someone

you were once in love with.

Now, okay, okay,
scrap that last part.

Just keep the resemblance thing.

Okay?

Think you can do that?

Yeah.

I'll send you my
consultation bill later.

Look,

I know you've been
through a lot,

but you're gonna
be okay.

I'll see at our usual
time on Saturday, hmm?

Drinks after on me.

Now go and retrieve
that drawing,

because that was really dumb.

Oh.

You didn't?

I did.

You did.

What do you think?

I think you
know it's my favorite.

You know, the chicken is
your grandmother's recipe.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Yeah, she gave it to me.

Oh, I know.

You wanna tell
me about your day?

Same old same old.

Well I just found
out something.

The competition that I
thought was gonna be canceled

this weekend in
Westchester is on.

That's good.

So, if you wanna come.

Don't say it.

Oh, baby, you know on
Saturdays I have... Ellie.

Just think about it a
little bit more, okay, please?

Do you want me to get
your skates sharpened?

No, I got it covered.

All right.

Excuse me.

Can you tell me the
name of the woman

who modeled here yesterday?

I'm afraid it's school
policy not to give out

that information, you
understand, right?

Oh sure.

Can you at least
tell me when she's

scheduled to come in again?

I can't do that.

Okay, is there a way
to get a note to her?

I'm sorry.

Good morning, we will
begin with a minute pose.

No, Carey, stop.

I just wanna talk to her.

Carey.

- She doesn't wanna talk to you, old man, so fuck off.
- Carey.

Just let me talk to her.

Carey, Carey, hey.

You're not getting
the fucking point.

Carey, Carey, Carey.

I'm getting the point.

Carey, I told
you I'd handle it.

I was protecting you.

Yeah, well, I
didn't ask you to.

What do you want?

I just wanted to talk to you.

Why?

Because you look exactly
like someone I once knew.

My grandmother?

That's who you're talking
about, right, Marcy?

Yes.

Yeah, well, she didn't
like being harassed,

and I don't like
being harassed either.

I don't
harass people.

Dude, you're a
fucking pervert.

Chill.

That's
not how it was.

How's she doing?

She isn't.

Marcy's dead?

Oh.

I'm sorry.

I won't bother you ever again.

Hey.

I like your drawings.

What?

I was in the cafe
across the street

when you threw them out,

and I can give them
back to you if you want.

I had actually gone back
there to retrieve them.

All right, well,
meet me at Cafe Reggio

tomorrow at noon,
and I'll bring them.

Hey,
what's your name?

Amelia.

Amelia.

Amelia.

Girlfriend
keeping you out late again?

How many drinks did
it take him this time?

I lost count.

So says
the accountant.

Isn't there some other
shoulder he can cry on?

I wish.

Lucky me.

Look, I just.

I can't do this anymore.

- Hey.
- Hi.

I don't know if you
think I rescued these

or I stole it, but there you go.

Thank you.

Can you sit?

Um.

What do you wanna talk about?

I just, um.

My God.

I don't know.

It's amazing, I just
feel like I'm in

sort of a strange time warp.

Because I
look just like her?

Oh God, yeah.

You know how creepy
this is, right?

I never thought
of myself that way.

Well you should.

Married man.

Can you just tell me what
happened to your grandmother?

Yeah, it happened just
like you said it would.

Just like you told
her it would happen

the last time you saw
her in this very spot.

How did you know this?

I inherited her diary.

You told her she was doomed.

Doomed to be

alone and drunk
in some dim cafe.

And that's exactly
what happened.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry things turned
out that way for her.

Yeah, well,

I gotta go.

Oh please
don't, just another minute.

Why?

The past is dead, Richard.

I don't think she
shared everything

that happened in that diary.

Please, don't go.

Did she say why I
said those things?

Yeah, you, um,

you didn't like
her bohemian ways,

and you were jealous
of her modeling,

so you dumped her
like a bad penny.

That's not exactly
how it went down.

Okay, so how did it?

It was just a
difference in philosophy.

No one was a bad guy.

You broke her heart.

And she broke mine.

She didn't wanna be
monogamous, and I couldn't.

I just couldn't.

I've always been old-fashioned
that way, so I let her go.

Were you happy
with your choice?

For the
most part, yes, but

it was painful for me too.

So then what did you do?

Went
to business school.

Mm, you were such a square.

Yeah, I did all
the square stuff.

Yeah.

Yeah, got married,
suburb, kid.

So on.

Sounds like a good life.

It was.

Is.

Can I
get something for you?

No thank you.

Okay, look, I have to go meet

or pick up a client's dog.

Um, for a walk.

And you are welcome to
accompany me, if you want.

I could use the exercise.

Awesome.

So what else can you tell
me about your grandmother?

Well, I guess
after you dumped her

she moved upstate in
New York to a commune.

And then about a year
later, she had my mom,

which she really
could not handle,

and that messed my mom up.

And then when my mom was 20,

she pretty much did
the same thing with me.

So, it's all screwed up.

Yo, yes, that's what I'm
talking about, Daddy.

Love the trumpet.

Big guns.

Big guns, what's that?

Nothing.

What is that? What's big guns.

Your grandmother used to
shout exactly like that.

Really?

Yeah.

What's the origin of big guns?

I don't think you
need to know that.

No, come on, you can tell me.

I'm a big girl.

Maybe another time.

Go,
Granny, that's hot.

Mm-hmm.

All right, I just need
to get my keys, and my hat.

You live here?

Yeah.

Something else I
inherited from Big Guns.

You can come up, if you want.

Just give me one second.

You're an artist.

Yeah, of
course, I can't let you

have all the fun.

I see you like working
in the style of Picasso.

Um, it's
more like Gilot.

Gilot, who's that?

Francoise Gilot,
she's one of my heroes.

You listen to vinyl.

Yeah, I got the sickest
collection from my grandmother.

You ready?

Now, I hope you like dogs.

Because you're about
to meet Roadie.

- Roadie?
- Yeah.

He's a nut.

So cute.

that makes you do it?

Besides the giant paycheck?

All right.

Um.

I don't know. I think that.

I think that it's
...it's freeing.

Like I can feel my
feet on the ground.

I can just feel all this
space around. I can breathe.

You know, it's kinda
hard to describe but

my grandma wrote it was
like the loving caress

of a dozen hands
all over your body.

Like nothing
sexual, just loving.

And I get that, I do.

It's spiritual, you know.

It's spiritual, and I think
everyone should try it.

I think you should try it.

Oh no way.

Yeah, I think you
definitely should.

Everyone but me.

Roadie, come on back.

- Where'd he go?
- Roadie!

- Roadie!
- Roadie!

Man, where could he be?

You know, I'm gonna lose
my job if we don't find him.

Hi, excuse me, have you guys
seen a golden retriever?

Okay, thank you.

Roadie!

- Roadie!
- Roadie!

Come here.

Have you seen a
dog run past here?

- Roadie!
- Roadie!

Roadie!

Come here, Roadie!

Amelia, you take the right
path, and I'll circle around,

meet you back at the
lawn where we were.

Roadie!

We'll find him.

Hey, guys, have you
seen a dog come by here?

Roadie!

Roadie?

Oh my God.

You found him.

Thank you so much.

Roadie, Roadie,
what were you doing?

What were you doing, Baby?

What were you doing,
you silly, Roadie?

Actually, he'd run all the
way past Poet's Corner, and I-

- Thank you so much.

You okay?

When I was a kid, we had
a mutt that we rescued.

He was my best friend.

Lot of energy.

And my mother always
told me to latch the gate

to the backyard, and
one day I forgot.

And he took off.

I remember running
around the neighborhood

screaming his name until
I had no more voice.

Did you ever find him?

Well, you redeemed
yourself today.

- You ready?
- Yeah.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

Roadie, come on, Baby.

- Come on.
- Yeah.

Oh can you do that?

Oh, she's a little showoff.

Can you do that?

No, I can't do that.

Come on, you could do that.

Come on, you took dance when
you were young, didn't you?

You could do this, can't you?

Watch out, watch out.

Come on,
come on, your turn.

Whoa, whoa, no, no.

Richard?

Greta.

What are you
doing in the city?

Just taking it easy.

Greta, this is Amelia.

Hi.

Amelia is a family friend.

Greta was my assistant,
all those years, right?

Cool.

So, what are you doing?

You know, just
watching the world go by.

Anyway.

Great seeing you.

See you.

Bye-bye.

Bye, nice to meet you.

So, um,

so some of my friends are
gonna go dancing tomorrow

if you wanna come.

It's formal wear, so if you
have a tux, you gotta wear it.

I don't know if it
still fits me, but I do.

You got one?

Yeah.

Awesome, if you
just wanna come over

to my place around
nine, you can meet us.

You don't want an old guy
like me spoiling your fun.

Come on.

I think I, um.

I think I need to go.

All right.

Yeah, it's getting late.

Well it was nice hanging out.

Yeah.

Take care, Richard.

See ya.

Ugh.

Oh, darn sequins
just keep popping out

every time I touch the ice.

I should just...
tear them all out.

Don't, I like them.

You like them?

What does it matter to you?

It matters.

Well it's not like
you're going, right?

Ellie, you know I have
my weekly match with-

Ellie.

It's fine.

I don't need you to come.

Now you're
sounding like me.

And anyway I'd probably
screw up my jump,

knowing you were there
in the bleachers,

just scrutinizing my every move.

It would be very distracting.

Don't forget to unload the
dishes before you go anywhere.

Okay.

And then later, can you
go grocery shopping please?

Sure.

For one percent, not
two percent milk, okay?

Okay, I'll get that.

You don't
need to do this.

It's the least.

And water the
plants, don't forget.

Mm-hmm.

I mean it, Richard.

Babe, I got it covered.

Hey.

Go bring me home a medal.

Bye.

Bye, champ.

Okay.

The plants.

Come on, Richard,
hit the ball.

You okay over there?

I'm just
not feeling it today.

Richard?

I'm just not feeling it today.

We still have 30 minutes
on the clock, you sure?

Boy.

Greta told me she ran
into you downtown.

Yeah.

You and a family friend,
dancing hand in hand.

You sly old dog.

What's the matter?
What happened?

I said drinks are on
me today, come on.

Not thirsty.

You're not?

Where you going?

Home.

Home, what's there for us?

Kenny, I can't
do this anymore.

Richard?

Richard.

Yo, Dick.

Yeah, you, Dick, you look lost.

Over here, man.

- Here he comes.
- Who's Dick?

Big Rick.

- Richard.
- Richard, you made it.

Everyone, this is Richard.

Richard, this is everyone.

You remember Carey and Adriel.

Yeah,
liked your music, man.

Thank you.

And this is
Willy, Saurab and Vincent.

Yo, Richard.

What's up, Baby
Richard, have a sip?

I'm good, thanks.

Come on, Grandpa.

Carey,
don't be a dick.

Richard, know what?

Don't worry about our
friend Carey here.

I think he's still
a little bored

from getting fired yesterday!

I'm saying it delicately.

Carey is, was, one of the
prep cooks at Applebee's.

That is until he nearly
grease fired down the place

with one of his
creative concoctions.

Oh my God,
like what? Like what?

Here is to better
future prospects, Carey.

Cheers.

Cheers, everybody.

Hey, why don't we?
Nathan, let's get going.

Richard, come here.

Oh, Richard.

Moving up in the
world, huh, Richard?

Careful.

Hey.

Ho.

How do
you like my friends?

Where did
you find these guys?

Ooh, I don't know.

Vincent and Saurab both come
from really strict families,

who didn't know what
to do with them.

And then I introduced
them, and now they're okay.

Adriel was strumming

in Washington Square Park, and
no one was listening to him.

I was like, are
these people stupid?

So I became his biggest fan.

And Carey, well,
you remember Carey.

Carey's

always on fire about something.

I mean, he doesn't,

okay, he doesn't like
to talk about it,

but his, um,

dad went to jail
for beating his mom.

So I think that's why he's
a little overprotective

with me and overreacted to you.

Willy is a recovering
financial adviser

who does these incredible
chalk drawings.

He woke up one day and just

sold his yacht and his big house

and left his beautiful wife.

They're all... strays.

Just like me.

I seem to be a magnet for them.

The lost.

The discarded.

The matrimonially unfulfilled.

I think we're here.

All right, so
everyone take a mask.

Here.

Ooh, you look so mysterious.

Do I?

Yeah.

So do you.

Come here, come here.

Come on, come on, Richard.

I know you wanna dance
with my people.

And.

Grandpa, who let
you outta the nursing home?

Come on, Grandpa, don't start
your Life Alert bracelet.

Come on, Grandpa, okay.

Hey, yo, make sure
your catheter don't fall out.

Nursing
home's a block away.

Are we sure
this guy's dancing,

or is he just having a seizure?

Yo, Grandpa, your leg okay?

I'm gonna catch
my breath, okay?

You good? Everything okay?

You having fun?

Okay.

Richard, hey, Richard.

Hey.

What's going on?

I shouldn't be here.

What happened?

Just go back to
your fun with Carey.

Oh my God.

Are you jealous?

I gotta go.

No, no no no, wait, wait.

Before you go, I wanna
give you something.

What?

Not here, come on,
let's just go upstairs.

Come on, please.

Please, Richard.

Sorry, thank you.

Spectacular.

All right, close your eyes.

Stick out your hand.

My God, you're so trusting.

My grandma had
that in this drawer

with all her other keepsakes.

It's yours, right?

Yeah, it's mine.

Yeah.

She bought this for me.

From the Moroccan guy
on St. Mark's Place.

Spoke five languages fluently.

I remember when
she put it on me.

She threw it over my neck,

and she kissed me.

I think she'd be happy to know

that you're reunited
with it now.

Shall I?

You're so formal.

It looks good.

Are you okay?

Just give me a second.

I didn't mean to
overwhelm you with

like the party and the

scarf.

It's okay, Marcy, I'm fine.

You're fine?

You okay?

Uh-huh.

We should get outta here.

What do you wanna do?

I wanna go draw.

That's a great idea.

Okay.

Let's go.

Whoo.

I'm gonna go get ready.

All right.

Do you want me to start
setting anything up?

Yeah, if you
want to, thank you.

Self-portraits are great.

Uh-huh.

They can be tricky, though.

It's a great test of your
objectivity, you know?

Eyes look good.

Oh yeah.

Whoa, you're doing the guys?

Yeah, it's
part of a series.

Yeah, I especially
like the one of Carey.

You ready?

Yeah.

That's what you're wearing?

Mm-hmm.

I think it would be best
if you stood over there.

Uh.

You're sketching me?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh.

Was that not, that wasn't cl-

No, it wasn't.

Are you okay with that?

Yeah, why not?

Where do you want me?

Um, hmm.

I think right here is good.

All right.

Okay.

You don't have to
take everything off,

if you're not
comfortable with it too.

I just wanted to do a portrait.

Equal opportunity.

Let's do it.

Okay.

I feel a little nervous.

Okay.

Okay.

Thank you.

I see what you mean
about the sound.

Mm-hmm.

How do you feel?

I don't know.

Well?

You wanna see?

Can I?

That's how you see me?

Richard.

That's how you are.

Oh.

I, I, I.

I can't do this.

Well it's not like
you're going, right?

Ellie, you know
I have my weekly match with-

Ellie.

It's fine.

I don't need you to come.

Now you're
sounding like me.

Anyway, I'd probably
screw up my jump,

knowing you were there
in the bleachers,

just scrutinizing my every move.

It would be very distracting.

Richard, family.

The past is dead.

I know this
is a tough transition,

but you gotta talk to me.

Stop pretending to
be this Rock of Gibraltar.

You're keeping it
bottled up. It's not healthy.

Wake up, Grandpa?

Oh.

What time is it?

It's the afternoon.

Give me a few more
minutes, will ya, Kiddo?

Come on, Grandpa.

A few more minutes.

Grandpa
won't wake up, Mommy.

Here.

Go play downstairs.

What are you doing?

Put them back, right now!

Chelsea.

She's gone, Dad.

It's been a whole year,
you gotta stop pretending.

I'm not pretending.

And have you be a
walking fashion disaster?

Not while I'm here.

Home, what's there for us?

It's
been a whole year.

I should have gone with her.

No, it's not your fault.

If I had gone with her,
it wouldn't have happened.

You don't know that.
No one can know that.

Are you gonna do it?

There might be a surprise.

Casey?

Maybe.

Can we go, Grandpa?

Okay.

Come on.

Don't wear your
grandfather out.

I won't.

When I get back,

let's take a look at that
brochure you showed me.

Okay.

I love you.

I love you too.

What do you see, Grandpa?

Nothing.

I'll race you to the park.

Let's go, come

I wanna go on the choo-choo.

Yeah.

It is Casey.

Grandpa?

It's okay, Grandpa.

Come on.

Sabrina! Come on,

Hello again.

Hello.

Grandpa, come on
the ride with us.

Yeah, Grandma.

Well?

Well?

Well, I suppose we can't
let them have all the fun.
