- TJ, what the heck is going on?

This should've been done an hour ago.

Get-er done!

- Hey, sorry I was late.

Was working late at the ranch.



I'll get you a plate.

- Thanks sis.

- You've been shoveling manure all day,

don't you think it'd be a good idea

to go wash your hands?

- It'll be fine, here.

- That was another real
fine meal hon, thank you.

- Good Lord, we thank
you for the food, amen.

- Don't you think out
ought to thank your sister

for that fine meal?

- Thank you.

It looks real nice.

- You know, just because
you come home late,

don't think you're getting
out of your chores.



- Wait, it's dark out.

- That's not my problem, now is it?

- Did you reserve time yet?

- No, no, not yet.

I don't have the money to.

I did finish that song though.

- You did?
- Yeah, yeah.

And I think it's pretty good.

- I can't wait to hear it.

Hey, don't you
be helping him none!

He needs to grow up and learn to be a man!

- Man.

That man's got eyes in
the back of his head.

All right.

Get on now, I got this.

Why are you so hard on him?

- He's a dreamer.

Dreamers don't amount to much.

What do you think
Dakota, try it again?

Let's do it.

- All right, one, two.

Yeah, so that's where the chorus comes in

and also, we could add

a couple of instruments.
- You suck.

Oh, you didn't like it?

- I don't know how you do it.

It's like it comes natural for you.

- Oh, it's not that big of a deal.

- Here.

This should cover what you
need to get into the studio.

- Oh, no, I can't take that.

That's your moving out money.

- I don't know how you write these songs.

You've been playing guitar
for, what, a year now

and you're already writing songs?

And not just any old song but good songs.

Besides, you're gonna need
another guitarist for your band,

so I guess I'm just
investing in my future.

But promise me one thing.

- What's that?

- Make it big.

Make it so big that daddy feels it.

Is dad home?

- No, we forgot to stop at the store

and pick up stuff for tonight's supper.

- Oh.

Can it wait?

I just have this idea for another song

I wanna get down before dad gets back.

Hey!

Here.

You have your permit,
go before dad gets back.

- I don't know if this
is such a good idea.

- Oh yeah, just take moms car.

The key's on the ring.

- I'll be right back.

Hey, those songs we recorded today?

They're amazing!

You're gonna make it.

- Hey, we.

We're gonna make it.

Now go on, hurry up and get
back before dad gets home.

- TJ, where's your moms car?

I'll ask you again,
where is your moms car?

I can't believe that you let
your sister drive that car.

What in the world were you doing

that was so important that you were

too busy to drive her up to the store?

- I was...

- Well I know what you were doing.

You were playing that stupid guitar!

It's time you grow up and become a man!

Oh my Lord!

No, no, no, no!

No!

No!

No, no, no!

Daddy?

Daddy?

Daddy!

I need help!

Help!

Help!

♪ Days go by like raindrops fall ♪

♪ I still feel the same ♪

- He's interesting.

- Interesting?

- What do you know about this guy?

- Let me see.

His name is Millhouse, TJ Millhouse.

- What does he look like?

- He's a good looking kid, maybe 20 or so.

- Did you tell him you
were gonna show this?

- I know how you work Kat,

I didn't say a thing to him.

- Good.

What's his number?

- So you do like his stuff?

- Yeah.

You've found me something for a change.

- I always bring you
gold Kat, you know that.

- Oh yeah right.

- He didn't write it down on here.

- You don't have his number?

- Nah.

- Did he have a manager?

- No, just his sister.

- Well did he pay by credit
card, a check, is he local?

- Paid cash for his session.

- Ah, you're killing me here man.

- Wait a minute, he did leave his hat.

- What am I supposed to do with a hat?

- I don't know.

Maybe go there and see
if they know him there?

- Do I look like Sherlock
bleeping Holmes to you?

- No, but you do sound
like him a little bit.

- Bloody useless.

- You realize you're a lucky man right?

That heart attack could've
easily taken you out.

- A lucky man that lost
his wife and baby girl.

- Yeah, well.

You're gonna get through this.

- Made you some iced tea.

- I gotta get going.

Hey, can I have a word with you?

- Yeah.

- TJ, I know I've been pretty
hard on you, I know that.

There are no words to describe

what you two have been going through.

But, I've been thinking.

I'm gonna give you a promotion.

It's gonna be more money,

it's also gonna be more responsibility.

- You're gonna give me a promotion?

- Yeah.

Now that your dad can't
work at the plant anymore,

you're gonna have to step up.

You're the only one left.

Your dad?

He needs you.

- Yeah.

Yeah, I'll take care of him.

- Okay.

Your daddy can be a pain
in the butt sometimes.

We both know that.

You know, but, deep down inside

there's a good man in there.

So why don't you take the weekend,

show up first thing in
the morning on Monday.

- Hello love.

I'm looking for TJ Millhouse.

- Yeah, well,

you found him.

What can I do you for ma'am?

- I believe this belongs to you.

- My God, my hat!

I've been looking
everywhere for this thing,

where'd you find it?

- You left it in the studio.

I think you have some real talent.

Your voice is nothing special,

but you've got a real
talent for writing songs.

- Yeah, well,

I forgot about those songs.

Pardon me.

Is that right?

Yeah,, I've
actually moved on, so.

- Right, yeah, I guess you have.

I'd like to manage you

and get you back in the studio, you know.

- I thought you said my
voice was nothing special?

- Nothing a few lessons

and an attitude adjustment can't fix.

- Well, no thank you ma'am.

- I have a way of making people famous.

- I don't wanna be famous.

- Come on darling, everyone
wants to be famous.

Do you have a cellphone?

- I got a landline.

- There ya go.

- Wait, no, hold on, take this back.

I don't need this.

- No, you're all right.

Switch it on.

I'll be in touch.

Well we
played this song yesterday,

it's been lighting up
the phones ever since.

♪ Days go by ♪

♪ Like raindrops fall ♪

Hello love.

I take it I got your attention?

- You got my song on the radio?

- Do I have your attention now?

- Yes ma'am you have!

- Oh good.

So are you interested or do you want me

to have them take it off the radio?

Because obviously I can do that.

It's a simple question TJ.
♪ So take your time ♪

♪ And I'll take mine ♪

I don't know what to say.

- You say yes,

and you fasten your seatbelt

because your life is about to change.

- Thank you ma'am.

- All right.

First thing you need to do
is stop calling me ma'am.

My name is Kat with a K.

So tomorrow is a big day,
we've got lots to do.

I need you back in the studio at 10 a.m.

- 10 a.m.?

No, I can't do that, I have work tomorrow.

- TJ, love, the ranch is
a thing of the past, okay?

Do you have enough songs for an album?

- Well, I mean not exactly.

I mean, I have some ideas.

- Don't fret, we'll sort
it out in the studio.

I've booked it for three weeks.

- Three weeks?

- Yeah, three weeks man.

You're gonna finish your
album in that studio.

- Hey, listen, this is
just happening really fast.

- Listen, just be there at 10 a.m.,

I'll handle the rest.

♪ Take your time ♪

♪ And I'll take mine, yeah ♪

♪ I'll take my time, yeah ♪

So, how are you feeling today?

- Sheriff came by, dropped something off.

It's your sisters chain and cross.

It's blackened from the fire.

Do you think a little
toothpaste will clean it up?

- Yeah, sure.

- Maybe that's what I'll do then.

I'll clean it up a little bit.

- Are you ready love?

TJ?

Can he hear me in there?

- Should be able to.

- You ready to go again mate?

- Sorry, I was just going
through the song in my head.

- 'Kay.

- Whenever you're ready my man.

- Switch it on.

Have you figured out
the lyrics for this one?

- Yeah, I have some ideas right here.

- Are the lyrics sexy?

- Excuse me ma'am?

- What did I tell you
about calling me ma'am?

What are you laughing at?

- Nothing.

- Nevermind, we'll work it out later.

Let's take five shall we?

I've gotta get this.

Freddy, tell me we're booked for Friday.

Shut it you, and make this kid sound good.

No, not you Freddy.

Wednesday?

Now you listen to me Freddy,

I told you Friday, not a bloody Wednesday!

His song's gonna be on every radio station

in the country by the end of the week!

- Whoa, wait.

Hold on, hold on.

Wait, excuse me, I'm sorry.

Did you just say every radio
station in the country?

- You weren't supposed
to hear that just yet

because I don't want it to go to your head

before you finish here.

I told you to buckle up,
didn't I TJ Millhouse?

You're on the ride of your life.

Does he know what I'm talking about?

Do you know what I'm saying?

Yes!

Yes, Kat with a K!

- Right, listen, I've got to go lads.

So can you manage this
and get me a hit record?

All right lads, see ya later.

- Is she crazy?

- Definitely.

- Ed's been looking for ya.

Evidently you didn't show up for work.

What have you been doing?

- Just some recording.

- Well that's nice.

- I know.

I know, I know, I know.

Dad, I should've called ahead,

I just got a little wrapped up--

- Yeah, I can see that.

If you wanna ruin your life
over your childish dreams,

I'm fine with it,

but I won't allow you to tarnish my name.

- Dad.

They're putting one of my
songs on the radio dad.

- Well that's nice.

And just how much are they paying you

to play that song on the radio?

- It don't exactly work like that.

- Oh really?

How does it work?

- I'm gonna go to bed.

- Don't you walk away from me boy!

Don't you walk away I said!

We're having a conversation here!

- Is that what you call this?

A conversation?

You getting off on my backside?

- Yeah, I'm not gonna stand by

and watch you ruin your whole life!

- See, that's the thing
you just don't quite get!

Isn't it up to me whether
I ruin my life or not?

- Get back here!

If you don't like the rules then get out!

- What's wrong?

Don't you like it?

- Oh no, yeah.

No, I like it.

I just didn't expect it to be so nice.

- Hopefully this will
help fix the situation.

It's important to have
the right environment.

It helps with the creativity.

Gorgeous!

This is your copy.

- Yeah.

You got one too?

- Of course, I own the place.

Don't forget about
tonight, you're on at 10.

- Tonight?

- Please don't tell me you forgot.

- No, no, no, I remember.

- Nice one, cheers babe.

- Yeah.

Yeah cheers.

- Come on, start the bloody song will ya?

- Sorry, I've never done this before.

- I take it you haven't found

- I take it you haven't heard of knocking?

- It is my house and all.

You're just lucky I have clothes on.

- Right.

- You haven't answered my question.

- I'm looking.

- Well, if you don't like it here,

you can always go back to living
with my brother in Canada.

- Oh you know, that's a great idea.

That would work out really well.

- Then find a place for the rat.

- Gotcha.

- I need your rent money.

- Yeah.

- Got your green card yet?

- I haven't heard back from them.

- Well, it's kinda hard to get a real job

without one of those.

When you've been doing laundry,
have you seen my socks?

- Socks?

- All right, these are the weekly special.

Did you remember to bring your green card?

- You know what, I can't seem to find it.

I must've misplaced it.

- It's very important,

we need that identification for your file.

- Well if I can't find it, they
can just give me a new one.

I'm sure this sort of
thing happens all the time.

- Where's your visor?

- Right.

Yeah.

- It must be worn at all times.

- The Board of Health could shut us down.

- Exactly.

- That's just a stepping stone.

- Don't expect for me to take you back in

once you find how tough
it really is out there.

- Yeah, don't worry, I ain't coming back.

Time for me to be moving
on from this place, sorry.

- You're sorry?

Sorry ain't gonna bring
your sister back, now is it?

Hm?

- You don't really like
touring too much, do you TJ?

- I just like making the songs.

- You know how many people would

kill to be in your shoes right now?

- Yeah, it ain't that great.

- Not that great?

Man, I saw you last night.

You had chicks all over you.

- Yeah.

I suppose I'm just
waiting for the right one.

- The right one.

Those chicks were smoke shows!

What's wrong with them?

- Would you marry any of them?

- No man!

- I just want someone I can, you know,

have dinner with, watch a movie with.

Someone I can actually talk to.

All right, ladies and gentlemen,

thank you very much, you're kind.

- Don't you walk away from me boy!

Don't you walk away I said!

We're having a conversation here!

- Is that what you call this?

A conversation?

You getting off on my backside?

- Yeah, I'm not gonna stand by

and watch you ruin your whole life!

- See, that's the thing
you just don't quite get.

Isn't it up to me whether
I ruin my life or not?

- Baby, the door's locked.

Give me a minute.

- Baby, did you see
how big that crowd was?

They must really like you here.

Have you seen my lipstick?

Maybe Shelly has some.

Are you okay?

- I'm fine.

- Okay, well I'm about
to go out with everyone.

Are you coming?

- I'll catch up, I just need a minute.

- Okay, sure.

Also, do you have any cash?

Yeah, here.

- Don't be staying in here all
by yourself too long, okay.

- We leave in one hour.

Did you sleep in these clothes?

She kept you up all
night again, didn't she?

- She can hear you.

- No, no I came up after the
show and just went to bed.

You've got any aspirin?

- Another headache?

- Yeah.

- Come on, come with me.

Here.

What are you standing on?

I'm fine.

I think it's just the tour.

I think it's taking it's toll on me.

Is it her, 'cause I can--

- He doesn't want you.

- Tonya, now please, just--

- You're old.

You know you're old, right?

What are you, like 50 something?

- Tonya, that's enough.

- Plane leaves in one hour.

Excuse me, love.

- Thank you.

Hey, is there anything wrong

with the plane's ventilation system?

- I can check with the captain,

but I believe our ventilation
is working just fine.

- Yeah, no, no, no, it's fine.

It's probably just me.

Hey, it's Melissa, right?

- Yes sir, that's right.

- You're married?

- Yes, I am.

- Yeah?

Happily I bet.

- Yes we are.

- Yeah, you got that glow about you.

Got any kids?

- We have two daughters.

- Two daughters, what are their names?

- Allison and Dakota.

- You have a daughter named Dakota?

- Mm-hm.

- Sorry love.

- Excuse me.

- We'll get in at two.

That should give you
plenty of time to rest.

- What time's the sound check?

- 6:30.

Are you all right mate?

You look a bit dodgy.

- I'm fine.

- Oh TJ.

- Hey, hey, baby.

Tonya.

Hey Tonya, Tonya!

Not right now, okay baby?

What, you
coming down with a bug?

- Yeah, I guess.

- Do you have any cold or
flu medicine on this thing?

I'm fine, really.

- Maybe you need a blanket.

Can we get a blanket for TJ?

How do you open this thing?

- Let me get some help.

- You get some rest, I'll
be here just on the phone.

TJ, are you all right!

TJ! TJ!

TJ!

- I just wanna say that
it's a pleasure to meet you.

My kids love your music.

- Thanks.

- Can we get to the point please?

- Right, of course.

Well,

you have a tumor in your larynx.

But the good news is
that it's not cancerous.

- Thank goodness.

- And he is gonna need an operation

to remove the tumor.

- Okay, so how long
before he can sing again?

- I'm sorry, he won't be singing again.

- Well, hang on.

Any chance of rehabilitating
his voice over time?

- Well the tumor is on the vocal cord.

The focus of this operation

is to have him continue
to breathe on his own.

- This is just getting worse and worse.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait.

What do you mean breathing on my own?

- Well there's a second tumor
on your other vocal cord.

It's very small and it doesn't seem

to pose a threat right now.

- Well can't you remove that one too?

- You should let that one alone for now.

I wanna keep an eye on it.

If for any reason we should need to

remove that one as well,

it may effect breathing.

- And what if that gets worse?

- We'll remove it.

And then there is the
chance that you could

become dependent on a respiratory machine.

But let's just take this step by step, hm?

I'm sorry,

I wish I had better news.

I've scheduled you for
surgery tomorrow morning.

- Has he spoken at all?

- No.

- He's been through so much.

- I understand he's quite famous.

- Yeah, he is.

His career had just begun.

He only released the one album.

Now he won't have a chance to
record any of his new stuff.

He'd lost his mom and his sister,

but he finally figured out a way

to channel all that
pain into his new songs.

- If you don't mind me asking,

what will become of him now?

- Well his life as an entertainer is over

and he has this beautiful
house, but that's about it.

- I'll take good care of him.

- Thank you.

spring is right around the corner

and I think it'd be a really good time.

I mean, you'll be feeling better and,

- Can we talk about this another time?

- You know, now is as good a time as any.

You can't keep putting this off.

I even cut the crusts off.

Ah.

There you go eating solid food again.

I noticed you were playing again.

Sounded real nice.

I don't know why the good
Lord took away your voice.

- That's life.

My mother always says,

when God closes one door,
He always opens another.

I think you should just
keep writing songs.

That's what you're good at.

- Hi there, what can I get you?

- What's your friends name?

Scrappy.

- She looks hungry,

are you gonna get her
a burger or something?

- Yeah.

Sure.

You know, you look familiar.

Do I know you from somewhere?

- No, I get that a lot actually.

- Okay, so one burger and
then can I get you anything?

- Yeah, let me think.

- Mom, that's TJ Millhouse.

- I don't mean to intrude,

but do you think that my daughters
could get your autograph?

- Oh, yeah, yeah, of course.

Do we have something we could--

- Yeah, yeah.

Here.

- And what are your names?

- Emmy.

- Lily.

- Emmy and Lily.

All right.

- Wait til Jessica hears about this.

- All right, there you are.

- Thank you.

We are big big fans.

- Oh yeah?

Hey, why don't you go in front of me.

I'm still thinking about what I want.

- Are you sure?

- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, why don't you put
their order on my bill.

Yeah, sure.

- Well we actually called our order in.

- Oh, yeah.

Here ya go.

I think you're all good to go.

- Thank you, thanks again.

- Oh yeah, pleasure.

- I didn't recognize you at first.

You look a lot different from your photos.

And your voice, I didn't expect that.

What happened to your voice?

- Oh, I just had surgery on my throat.

- You brought a dog into work?

- Well I can't just leave
her in the car all day!

- That's it, you're fired!

- Fine.

- What's her name?

- Sunshine.

- Here ya are.

- Thank you, you're very kind.

- Welcome.

- You know, I can't believe
this is my sons place.

It's big enough to park
an airplane in here.

- You've never been here before?

- No, I've been kind of busy.

- Did he tell you about his surgery?

- No, he didn't.

But I read about it in
one of them magazines.

- Well he'll be back soon.

He just went out to grab some food.

- Okay.

Well, can my boy talk?

- Excuse me?

- He can't talk, all right.

I mean I know that they removed

some of his vocal cords

and can he still talk?

- It's more like a whisper.

Seems like the two of
you were not very close.

- You can say that's a fair assessment.

What are you, his maid?

- I'm the physicians assistant.

- Well look at that!

My boys got an assistant!

- Dad.

What are you doing here?

- I just thought I'd come
by and check on my son.

See how he's doing.

I'm gonna give
you two some space.

- What's with the cane?

- I get winded easily.

- Was it cancer?

- No.

- Well that's good.

You know, you've done quite
well for yourself son.

Big house, your own assistant,

and all from playing the guitar.

- Yeah.

What do you want?

- Why, am I taking you from something?

- Look,

I am sorry

I told her to take that car.

There's nothing I can
do to bring her back.

- You walked out on me boy.

- What else was I supposed to do?

- You know, maybe it's best I get going.

- Yeah, maybe it is for the best.

- It's gonna have to do for now.

- I'm going out for a walk.

- Are you okay?

Yeah, I just need some fresh air.

- Wait!

Take this with you, it's dark out there.

- All right, all right, I'm leaving.

I'm sorry, sorry.
- Whoa!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hey, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Hey it's me, it's me!

I'm the guy from the restaurant.

- Oh, sorry.

I thought you were the
police or something.

- What are you doing out here?

- Oh you know, just taking a little break.

- A break?

- Yeah, yeah, I was just resting.

- Out here?

- Really, you don't have to do this.

- No, really, it's fine.

We have plenty to eat.

Scrappy.

- Hope, this is a friend of mine

and I've invited her for dinner.

- Well, how nice!

I hope you're hungry.

We have plenty.

- That's very kind of you.

- I bet the two of you are thirsty?

Can I get you anything?

- We have literally every drink out there.

- Oh, I'll just have water.

- There's sparkling, and seltzer,

mountain, mineral,

we even have those fruity ones.

- Sparkling?

- And how 'bout you TJ?

Oh, don't worry, I got it.

- Okay.

- Do you happen to see where my dog went?

I'll be right back.

Oh no, you did not poop in here did you?

This would seriously be the worst place

for you to do that.

- Got this for ya.

- Thank you.

- Hey.

I'm gonna get a bowl of water for Scrappy.

- Thanks.

- It's a beautiful night.

- So what's it like being famous?

I've always wondered.

- I mean, I don't care for it too much.

- Really?

- The money was great though.

So, why were you really
sleeping in your car?

- Well, I was staying at my Uncle's place

and things just didn't work out.

- So you're homeless?

Well, I mean, if you want,

you could stay here.

- Stay here with you?

- Yeah, I don't see why not.

I mean, I got like nine rooms.

- I don't know if that's such a good idea.

I mean, we barely know
each other, I have the dog.

- I insist.

Oh.

You play the guitar?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I actually know
a couple of your songs.

- Really?

You're gonna have to play
some of them for me then.

- Oh, my voice isn't very good.

- Hey, that's what they said about me.

- Who said that?

- Managers, producers,

my record company.

- Well I thought your voice was, is.

Sorry.

- That's okay, really.

Let's hear you play then.

- Okay.

- Your hand's shaking.

- That's because I'm very nervous.

- Just close your eyes,
take a deep breath.

that your career is over?

- I'm sorry, what did you just call me?

- Hey, hey, hey.

- Let's see if I can get this right.

He can't sing and it can't hear.

You two make such a good couple.

I called you trailer trash.

- You need to leave.

- It's okay, I got this.

- What are you gonna do?

- I'm calling the police.

- Good, call the police!

I'm pressing charges!

- Yes, we have an
intruder in our residence.

- Intruder?

She hit me!

Thank you baby, I knew
you'd come to your senses.

- Oh, hey baby, you can't
go hitting people like that.

You're gonna hurt your hand.

That's good.

- This just might work.

- I know, right?

Yeah, she's got a good look.

You know, the doctor said I was

never gonna get my voice back and,

well then I met you.

And I feel like you became my voice.

And what I really wanna know

is my sweet Sunshine,

would you be my voice forever?

- Yeah, yeah of course.

Yes!

- Do you know if he showed up?

- Sorry mate, ceremony's about to start.

He'd of been here by now, wouldn't he?

- Well now that's all right.

It was a long shot anyway.

He's here.

- TJ.

- I was thinking you
weren't gonna show up.

- Oh I came to see this day.

And I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.

- Ed!

- Congratulations son.

- Thank you Ed, it's
good to see you again.

- You too.

- Dearly beloved, we are gathered together

in the presence of God

to witness the joining together

of Sunshine and TJ in holy marriage.

Well, let's get right to it.

Sunshine, do you take
TJ to be your husband

for the rest of your life,

in sickness and in health?

- I do.

Sunshine to be your wife,

in sickness and in health?

- I do.

- Please take these rings.

Sunshine, please place
the ring on TJ's finger.

TJ, please place the ring
on Sunshine's finger.

Together, repeat after me.

With this ring.

With this ring.

- I thee wed.

I thee wed.

- And pledge my loyalty and love.

And
pledge my loyalty and love.

- In the presence of God.

In

- Where are they?

What's taking them so long?

- They took off out the east exit.

- What?

I told them the south.

- Kat, where are you going?

- I'm going off to see where they are.

- Limo was waiting, they're long gone.

- You're kidding.

Did you not see how sick TJ was?

- I didn't, sorry.

- I'm calling him.

- It might've been the biggest audience

we've ever played for.

It was a sold out show.

They were all there to see you.

You belong on that stage.

- Well they were there to see you too.

Are you okay?

TJ?

TJ are you okay?

No?

- I know the timing couldn't be any worse,

but you need to be in
Seattle in six hours.

You were supposed to be
on the plane already.

- I can't just leave him.

- I know love, I know, but

we can't cancel.

We can't cancel a show now, can we?

And he's got the best
possible team working on him.

I just spoke to the surgeon.

- She's right, you go, okay?

I'll stay here with him.

- Thanks Hank.

There's not much you can
do at this point is there?

And I will have him back
in 12 hours, I promise.

- Okay.

- All right, love, thank you.

You'll call if you hear
anything, won't you?

- Yes I will.

As soon as I hear.

- Come on darling.

- Thank you.

- TJ is a fighter, he's gonna be okay.

Come here.

- Good evening Seattle!

You all look lovely tonight.

Some of you may already have heard,

but my husband TJ Millhouse

was rushed to surgery last night.

We heard on the radio coming here,

the DJ asking you to
bring your hearts tonight

in support of him.

So tonight, I'm dedicating
this song to him.

We love you TJ!

- Son, I know I've been hard on you.

And God knows I've been downright mean.

I guess I just wanted
you to do better than me.

And now here you are,
fighting for your life.

God, if you take anyone
tonight then take me.

Not this young man.

He's got his whole life ahead of him yet.

I love you.

That other
tumor in TJ's throat

finally got a hold of him.

The doctor said they
removed what they could,

and that we should just pray for the best.

We all took turns checking in on him.

- Morning, I made you all some breakfast.

Come on over here and have a seat.

- Thank you.

- It's about the only meal that I make

that I don't usually screw up.

I know you're not hungry and all,

but you do need to eat.

It is the Millhouse rule.

Prayers.

Dear Lord, we thank you
for this wonderful food

and our special family,

precious as they are.

- He's gonna be all right Hank.

I can feel it.

- Would you mind if I referred
to you as my daughter?

- I would like that very much.

- Good.

Dig in.

Days went by

and I decided to plant
some flowers out front,

hoping to pass the time.

You planting flowers?

- TJ?

You're awake!

What happened to your breathing tube?

- I'm fine, I don't need it.

Never realized how long of a walk it was

to the backyard though.

- I think something's going on here.

- We're having a baby?

- I think so.

- Oh.

How do you know?

- I just do.

We're having a baby!
