Packed to the Rafters (2008–2013): Season 5, Episode 10 - Letting Go - full transcript

Coby's hasty resignation leaves his CV scarily sparse, so he ends up in a terrible job in suited car-wash publicity, starting to doubt if he should have sacrificed his apprenticeship. Dave and Julie won't listen to everyone agreeing they just belong together, so Ben drags them along for a weekend in the cottage he and Emma want to buy to start a new country-life, which does the trick. Carbo has kittens when Retta insists the baby will also need a safer car then his beloved Charger, but he still gives it up once he sees how happy it will make an equally enthusiastic, still car-less teenager. Ted's memory problems become worrisome, even for Cooper.

It's easy
to hold onto problems.

Learning to let go,

that can be the tricky part.

♪ When you all do
is ramble... ♪

Granddad!

Sorry for interrupting
the prancing stick insect.

Very funny.

Now I take it you don't want
tai chi lessons.

Milk, actually.
We're all out.

Well, you know where it is.

♪ One thousand
origami birds ♪



♪ That burnt up flying... ♪

The trouble is some problems

really aren't that easy
to resolve.

Especially
if you're coming from

two very different angles.

Yeah, yeah well look,

now we're a bit short staffed
at the moment.

What about tomorrow?

Urgent?

Dave, come on.
No Dad, don't do that.

I'm sorry.
We won't be able to help.

-Look, it's fine. It's Ben...
-Maybe next time okay.

Look, don't make Dad
do your dirty work.

Hey, I was just trying
to sort out a job.



Hey! Ben's on his way.

Knock, knock.

Is everything all right?

Yeah of course,
why wouldn't it be? Huh.

It's like somebody hit
the mute button.

It's just the shock of seeing
you up before midday,

that's all, mate.

Oh, I'm not that bad, am I?

So I'm guessing
the early bird

has some kind of worm
to catch.

Or milk to steal.

Yes. Sorry. Early stock
take at the boat club.

I'll replace this. Promise.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Better run.

Now, the way I see it is...

Ah, Dad, thanks for that

but there's no need
for you to get involved.

And I don't know why
you're still on the couch

when there's
a perfectly good bed

in Rachel's room.

Well, there's a perfectly
good bed in my room.

- You know,

you're going to have to let go
of this some time.

I know, I...

Say goodbye to Daddy.

Yeah, I know I said
I'd do it today

but I can't clone myself,
mate.

Hello?

Pool light's been broken
for three weeks.

You wouldn't think another
couple of days would hurt.

Is that Frankie's?

Yeah, she must have
left it here.

You might have noticed
I'm a bit snowed under.

I'll get rid of it.

Might be time
to start advertising

for a new sparkie.

Yeah, if I had time I would.

Maybe next week.

Say goodbye to Daddy.

Don't want to be late
for day care, do we?

- Mm.
-You going to work?

Yeah, well, Thursday.

Dad said he'd pick her up.

What, you're giving me grief
over a jacket,

but it's still okay for you
to work with Adam.

Well, I think
I can trust myself.

-Morning.

Hey, Jake. Have a good day.

Hey, Jules.

Come on, sweetie.

Still on the couch?

Yeah, still there.

But I was thinking
of giving Coby a call.

It's just not right
that he quit over this.

Oh, look, he's still
kind of not over it.

Oh, why can't everyone
just calm down,

get a grip,

bloody move on.

So you just finished
an apprenticeship?

Ah, finished as in quit.

Okay. What happened?

Oh, it just
wasn't working out.

We can put you in touch
with another business

if you'd like
to see it through.

-Yeah. For real?
- Sure.

All you need is a reference
from your old employer,

a record of hours worked
and we can set it all up.

Oh, no, I was thinking maybe...

something different.

Oh. Fresh start. Okay.

How do you feel about
relocating for work?

Plenty of jobs out west.

Yeah, great, clean slate.
Sounds perfect.

And, I mean, I can travel
now that my bon...

Ah... What jobs?

Oh, well, there's plenty
of mining work for example

in Western Australia.

-W-A?
- Mm.

When you said west I thought
you mean, you know, Blacktown.

So that's a no.

I mean, come on,
there's got to be something.

I know my resume's
not that flash

but I'm young
and I'm hardworking,

and I'm not into
anything dodge.

What are you into?

Oh, you know, tatts.

And comic books and...

cars.

There's a position
open right now

for someone who likes cars.

Do you think you'd
be interested?

Hell, yes.

♪ I know you say ♪

♪ You're ready to change ♪

♪ But I need to get it down
On paper ♪

♪ It's in your face ♪

♪ You're ready to blame ♪

♪ The first guy in line
To catch the train ♪

♪ I'll save your seat ♪

♪ 'Cause you don't stand
For what you preach ♪

-Hey, Julie.
-Hey.

How are you?

Yeah. Good. You?

Yes, good.

Um... about the other night...

Oh, yeah, I'm sorry.

You shouldn't have
had to see that.

Is everything okay?

I mean, you didn't have
to come in today

if you need to be at home.

Oh, no, I think

work's probably the best thing
for me at the moment.

Well... Oh, good, great.

Yeah, so deadline
this afternoon?

Indeed it is
and if any contributors

haven't delivered yet

give them a quick
call slash...

Slash, kick up the bum.

Yeah, don't tempt me
the way I'm feeling.

-Okay.
-Better get to it.

Yes.

Okay, so that's another six
of the chardonnay

and six of the Riesling.

Ben!

How about a vineyard?

Sorry?

For the cottage.

-We could plant vines...
-Shh.

...have our own label.

We should check it out
this weekend.

Ben, be quiet.

What? I know wine's
not easy but it...

No, it's not that.
I haven't told Mom yet.

Oh, no, why not?

Well, I don't want
to go there unless

we're sure it's what we want.

What do you want?

You're getting married!

-Mom!
-You're pregnant.

No!

You're buying a dog.

-Absolutely not.
-No way.

Oh, thank goodness,
'cause let me tell you,

you're both much too young
for that sort of thing.

Dog ownership?

There's plenty of time

later on in life
to settle down,

get covered in dust.

Anyway,
here endeth the lesson.

Empty those bins
before you go.

See what I mean?

So she's not exactly
going to jump at the idea.

I get that.

But the thing is,

I'm pretty sure
this is what I want.

-I know.
-Aren't you?

Pretty sure,
but is that enough?

We've just had time to forget
how awesome the place is.

As soon as we get back there,
we'll be sold.

Yeah.

And then we can tell your mom.

Yeah!

Good shot, Cooper.

How are things at home?

Oh, I think...

tense is the word
I'm looking for.

I really put my foot in it,
didn't I?

Oh, don't beat yourself up.

It would have come out
eventually.

Yeah, but I made
a bad situation worse.

If that's how you feel,

why don't you come
over to the house

and clear the air?

Oh.

Your shot, Ted.

Oh, the writing's on the wall
now, mate.

What are you doing?

That's not yours.

What?

You're smalls. I'm bigs.

-No, you're not.
- Yes, I am.

You're smalls.

Right you are.

Does my head in.

He always does stuff
like that.

-Coby, wait.
-Oh, what?

Look, I'm not going to beat
around the bush.

Yeah, says the bloke
who's doing exactly that.

I want you to come back
to work.

It's too late.
I've already got another job.

-Really?
-Yeah. And it's really great.

And there's no hassles,
and no two faced bosses.

All right, you want
to have it out, fine.

No, there's nothing
to have out.

You pashed Frankie.
It's the end of story.

-Is it?
-Yes.

No, look, I get how you're angry
about what happened.

-Whatever!
-Yeah, but in the end

what happened
is none of your business.

I screwed up, Coby,
and I'm paying for it.

Well, that's not my problem.

I know it's not your problem
so don't make it yours.

Yeah, we had
a good thing going.

I liked having you on the team
and you liked it too.

Look, don't pay the price
for my mistake,

that's all I'm saying.

There's a job waiting for you
if you want to come back.

-Carbo?
-Yeah?

Does the Charger have
passenger side air bags?

Are you kidding?

Doesn't even have
driver's side air bags.

What about ABS
or traction control?

Babes, Charger's are built
for burnouts.

Yeah, well,
that's what worries me.

They're built for burnouts.

Not for a baby.

What are you trying to say?

I don't think the Charger
is the best car for our child.

Look, Karandonises
and Chargers go together

like rock goes with roll.

Baby'll be just fine.
Trust me.

Here... Ooh.

-Hey, Ted!

Ooh, cut that a little fine,
eh, Mr. Taylor.

It's only a scratch.
Mirrors can be replaced.

Yeah. What... Oh...

-Where's Jules?
- Running late.

-Something about a deadline.
- Daddy.

Don't worry.
We're going to cook.

Right. Hello.

How are you, Dave?

I'm... I'm good thanks, Donna.

I hope you don't mind.
We've got a dinner guest.

Oh. Cheers.

Dave?

I just wanted to say sorry
about the other night.

Oh, forget about it, Donna.

I really didn't mean
to speak out of turn.

No, really, Donna,
just forget about it. okay?

Yeah.

All right, I'm just going
to run a bath for Ruby.

Come on.

Well, that didn't go so badly.

Maybe you were right.

Yeah. You know I can't
believe I did that.

What?

Running into the bins.

Oh, nothing serious.

I mean, I must have
turned into that driveway

a thousand times
and then suddenly I stuff it.

Well, you have been
a bit forgetful lately.

A bit distracted.

You have got a lot
on your plate.

You know, maybe I've been
letting things get to me

a bit more than I realized.

Better up the tai chi.

Mm.

Julie.

Yeah, sorry. Drifted off.

Oh, you wouldn't be the first
journo that happened to.

Journo?
Oh, you're too kind.

Go home, Julie,
I can finish up here.

No, no, I don't...
I don't want to go home.

I want to do my job.

It's okay, I've got time.
I... I'll get there.

Would it help
to talk about it?

I'm fine.

You sure?

Yeah. Actually I wanted to put
a classified ad in the paper.

A new electrician.

For Dave.

Well, talk to Maggie.

Tell her I've okayed it,
she won't charge you.

Sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Here it is.

Secret family recipe.

Mm. Delicious.

-Mmm-hmm
-Mm.

What time exactly
did Julie say she'd be home?

Dinner time.

It's dinner time now.

Well, she's probably working
on some massive scoop

that's going to blow the lid
off the establishment.

Joke, Dave, remember those?

Dave, I'm sorry.

Oh, I'm not upset with you.

Maybe I should go.

No, no, please. Stay.

Oh, that smells delicious.

Sorry, I'm late.
Have I made it in time?

Plenty of time.

-Oh, good. Donna, hi.
- Hi.

Ruby still awake?

Ruby's down.

Well, come on, come and get it
while it's hot.

Julie, I just wanted
to apologize again

for the other day.

Oh, Donna, it's fine, forget it.

That's just what Dave said.

Yes, well, then...

Just go and wash my hands,
won't be two secs.

Big day was it, love?

Oh, you know
what the Standard's like,

one corner store closure
after another.

-So long as nothing important.

Well, I wouldn't say
staying back

with the classified
editor writing a...

An ad for a new sparkie
nothing important.

A sparkie for us?

Yeah. Well, managed
to pull a few strings.

Got an ad in this
week's edition.

It's what you wanted,
wasn't it?

Yeah. Thanks.

You're welcome.
Won't be a sec.

When emotions run high,

holding on to problems
can be a point of pride.

Lovely.

It takes a brave person
to be the first to let go.

Benno? I'm a genius.

Oh, yeah, since when?

I've sorted out Retta's issues
with the Charger.

Yeah? How does Retta feel
about that?

Doesn't know yet.

Why do I get the feeling
this isn't going to end well?

It'll work. Watch.

Ah, Retta!

You want to talk about
the Charger.

-Oh, how did you know?
-'Cause I do, too.

Oh, you see, great minds
think alike.

We'll see.

Okay. You go first.

Okay. You're right.

The Charger is not
baby compatible.

Oh, Carbo, thank goodness.

I thought
we were going to have

the hugest fight.

-Just wait.
-Oh, fight?

Oh, now, you thought
I was going to be upset

with modifying it.

You're so sweet.

Modi... Modify?

What are...
What are you talking about?

And there it is.

I'll get it.

Come on, check it out.

Okay, look,
we could put anchor points

inside the boot
for the baby seats, right.

We can install air con,

we can even extend
the front seat rails

so we got more room
to get in the back.

Yeah. Carbo...

Retta, I know modifications
are sacrilegious,

but what other choice
do we have?

Well, we could...

We could sell it.

Sell it.

Yeah, good one, Retta.

That's good.

Retta?

I just thought
we could consider it.

Never! Look, you know
that car's a part of me.

This is your hormones
talking again.

- Carbo, no, wait!
- No. No!

Look,
I know you love that car.

-I know.
- No, that's the thing,

I always come down.

Look,
I know you love the car.

You know when I said
I thought I was happy

about moving to the cottage
before?

-The sooner the better?
-Yeah.

I'm never selling
that car, understand? Never.

- Dave?
-Yeah?

Oh, I thought
we were moving on.

You know, the ad
in the paper and...

I'm not ready.

I need time.

Jules, please.

Night.

Yeah, good night.

Sometimes it's worth a shot

just to act like
we've let go,

that everything's okay.

But it doesn't always work.

Super Deluxe wash, mate.

No worries, man.

Super Deluxe car wash?
What's the occasion?

I'm thinking of selling her.

You're selling the Charger?

Yeah. The wife reckons
we should trade her in

for a four door
and eco-friendly.

She's probably right.

Oh, so that's it then?

Hey, I wasn't a walkover.

Coby?
What are you doing in there?

I am the one asking
the questions.

It's okay.

I can handle selling it.

Things change, yeah?

Yeah.

Change or turn to crap.

I'll finish rearranging
the schedule.

With a bit of luck
we'll get a weekend.

Light at the end
of the tunnel?

Yeah. Pinprick
but I'll take it.

What's that?

It's Frankie's jacket.

I put it there for her
to collect yesterday.

Couldn't get here, sorry.

-Hey, Jake.
- Hey.

-Ta.
-No worries.

How you going anyway?

Yeah, good, thanks.
I should go.

I didn't want to intrude,
I just...

No, you're not intruding.

I'm just going to go
and grab that thing

from the shed.

Yeah, sure.

Jules?

I just came to collect this,
I didn't...

Yeah, I need to get Ruby
inside, so...

She just came
to get her jacket

like you wanted her to.

I didn't know
I was going to see her.

Oh, for God's sake, Jules,
if I can get over

what happened
between you and Adam...

-That is different.
-Okay, now what's different

is that you're holding onto it
like a vice.

When are you going
to let it go?

Milk. Oh, look at that.

Miracles do happen.

Yeah. Don't try and
get out of it this time.

-What's going on?
-Nothing.

All right,
well, not nothing. Obviously.

But we're just very stressed.

Frankie's quit.

Frankie?
I thought it was Coby.

Yeah. He has, too.

Did something happen
between the two of them?

It did, didn't it?

Oh, Dad said she'd be trouble.

Do you know?

Oh, don't ask me.

Look, look, it's complicated.

All you really need to know

is that we've been left
in the lurch

and things aren't plain
sailing around here,

business-wise.

It's more than just business.

Mom?

It'll work itself out.

Sorry, Ben.
Coming, sweetheart.

Yeah. I've got to go too.

Thanks for the milk.

First time for everything, eh?

I don't buy it. Do you?

I mean, they've been acting
weird for a while now.

Long before all this
Coby-Frankie stuff.

Weird?

Yeah, you know, different.
Snippy.

I don't know.

You really haven't noticed
anything?

I didn't say that.

Well, then what do you think's
going on?

Well, look, they've had
a few setbacks lately

and it's just kind of
piling up.

But don't worry about it.
They'll sort it out.

What?

I think I know
how to help them.

Ben, look, I think that
you'd best stay out of it.

No, no, don't worry, Granddad,
this is going to be great.

Ben!

Leave it with me, okay?

But try
and force someone

to let go of something

and they'll just hold on
even tighter.

-The country?
- Yeah.

That cottage I told you about.

Darling, I don't think
we can just drop everything

-and come away with you.
-Come on.

You both deserve a break
and this place,

trust me, once you get there
your troubles just evaporate.

And besides...

What?

Well, this way you can tell me

if you think buying
it's a good idea.

Oh, right, so a hidden agenda.

When do you have to be back
at the paper?

Ah, well, not till
next week, but I...

Great. You're available.

And I know you don't
want Ruby unsettled

that's why Granddad's going
to baby sit her here instead.

At your service.

Jake says you've got
the weekend clear.

You seem to have all
of our excuses covered.

I'm not taking
no for an answer.

Well, in that case...
'Course we'll come.

Awesome.
I'm going to go and tell Emma.

That's a free wax
with every super carwash.

Yep.

Oh, man, what a mess.

Yeah, well,
it isn't your mess any more.

You reckon?
Julie hates me.

That's kind of understandable.

I just... I just wish
that she knew how sorry I was.

Well, what
are you telling me for?

You know where she lives.

Yeah, I know, I know.

Listen, they've been married,
what, 30 years?

I mean, one stupid kiss
isn't going to destroy

all that.

Yeah, but it's obviously
causing problems

and if I hadn't jumped on him
like some stupid teenager

with a crush then none
of this would be happening.

- Oh, that is bull.
-Excuse me?

You are just saying that.

-What?
- It takes two, Frankie,

you can't tell me
it doesn't take two.

Coby! What are you doing here?

Listening to your garbage.

You are both as bad
as each other.

Coby, I meant what I said.
This is all my fault.

Are you working at a carwash?

No. I'm just going
for a stroll.

What do you care where I work?

Because I do.

I'm sorry.

Please don't throw
your job away

because of something
stupid that I did.

No. Just shut up, okay?

I don't want to hear it.

It's true though.
It's my fault.

Wow.

That was random.

All set?

Yeah. I think so.

Although Julie seems
to have forgotten to pack

the kitchen sink for the first
time in her life.

Oh, ha-ha-ha.
Don't tempt me.

Looks like
they're happier already.

Ooh, your evil plan
is working.

Dave.

Frankie.

Can I talk to you
for a second?

Ah... it's probably
the last thing

that you want to hear
and the least helpful but I...

really am sorry.

And I'm sorry because
I'm the one who should be.

It's my fault.
The whole thing.

Dave has never been
inappropriate

or done anything
to encourage me.

He's been my boss
and a good man...

and I'm truly sorry
that I have put either

of you through any of this.

We were drunk,
it was a long night

and it was time to go and...

I just did it.

I kissed him.

Why?

I liked him.

It was a stupid crush
and I thought

that it could stay that way
but it didn't.

I acted on it and I know
that it's not about Dave,

it's about me and I am
never going to forgive

myself for that.

What you two have...

Anyway...

thank you for hearing me out.

Don't blame Dave.

It's my fault and...
I'm sorry.

I hope you can see that.

So once you're past
the big bee farm,

chuck a left
and you can't miss it.

Sorry?

See you, Frankie.

All good?

Yeah. She... she just needed

to get that form so...
We should get going.

Yeah. All right,
just follow us.

Safe driving.

Do as I say,
not as I do, eh, Granddad?

Okay, bye, darling.

Now, if she needs me you...

I'll show her your photo.
Now go on, get out of here.

And have fun.

So what did Frankie want?

Just drive, Dave.

- Bye bye.
- Wave.

So, did they get away okay?

- They did.
-Against all odds.

When Frankie showed, I thought
the fur was going to fly.

Oh, I think Julie's way
too civilized for that.

I don't know.

I've never seen her
so rattled.

I didn't realize
how tense things

were until I was around
there the other night.

-Mm.
-Maybe that's what's been

getting to you.

-Getting to me?
-Mm. Well, you know.

Not really.

Well, it could be
one explanation.

You think
I'm starting to lose it.

No. It was just something
that Cooper said.

And then there was that
business with the car.

Hey, I'm 68.

It goes with the territory.

And there have been
other instances.

Such as?

Well, sometimes you confuse
people's names.

Who doesn't?

And then there was that night
we were supposed to meet

at my place but you came here
to the boat club.

That's your evidence?

Well... Ted, just ignore me.

I'm probably being silly.

Too right you're being silly.

I've never heard anything
so ridiculous in my life.

Come on, Ruby,
we're out of here, love.

Oh, Ted.

I'll see you later.

Mate, are you serious?
265ci street tune,

what are you selling it for?

-Family reasons.
-Insane.

They don't make them
like this anymore.

No, no, they make them
with back doors and airbags.

Who cares about that stuff
when you've got

this under the hood?

You don't know how long
I've been looking

for a car like this.

You want your first one
to be special.

You know?

Well, it's yours
if you've got the cash.

I've got a deposit,

but my Dad can pay the rest
when we pick her up later.

Okay. Yeah.

It's yours.

Walla walla wincha!

Actually, you might want
to hold off on that deposit.

-What?
-Yeah, it's got a few problems

like the brakes,
they don't work much, ever.

And the steering wheel
it just... It's a disaster.

It just comes off
all the time, just right off.

Stop. She's kidding.

Look, I know
what you're doing.

-Yeah, but...
-Yeah, no nothing.

I'm ready to sell.

But you're upset
and it's okay.

We'll just get a secondhand
sedan or something.

No, Retta, I'm... I'm not upset.

You look like
you're about to cry.

Tears of joy.

See him, he understands.

She's going
to the perfect home.

Are you sure?

She's all yours, mate.

Yes! Woo-hoo!

is it contagious?

No, it's just heat rash,

I don't know, mate.

an STD to me.

-What, up here?

Well, you don't know

No, seriously,
I need some help.

-This is killing me.
-I'll buy beers for a week.

Two weeks! Come on, please,
don't make me beg. Jake?

No mate, oi, look, you made
your own bed, you lie in it.

So, about that weekend
at the Blue Mountains.

Yeah, what about it?

Well, I heard that...

maybe it wasn't as much
Dave's fault as I thought.

Where'd you hear that?

It doesn't matter.
Is it true?

Well, I don't know
who started it.

All I know is Dave
was the one that stopped it.

Right, well, I admit...

Maybe I have been
a bit of a tool.

Yeah, and a sponge.

It's lovely.
It's cozy.

Letting go
of our pride and joy

When the time
is right is possible.

But lifelong habits,

they're a little harder.

Sorry again
about the bed situation.

I know it's a bit
of a squeeze.

-Hm.
-Then, again maybe

that's a good thing.

-No, it's fine.
-Yeah. No, it's not a problem.

Might even get lucky, Dad,
eh, hm?

- Ben.
- Sorry?

Parental sex,
what was I thinking?

You know, these veggies
are lovely.

Organic. See,

I told you
they'd make a difference.

That's why we want
to grow them.

Mm. We want
to be self-sufficient.

Yeah, well, good luck.
It's hard work.

Oh, since when have
you ever grown veggies?

When we first moved
into Randall Street.

-No.
-You hadn't even been born.

Oh, you know
I'd forgotten about that,

our little veggie patch.

-Mm. Yeah.
-What did you grow?

-Oh, tomatoes, zucchinis.
-Yeah.

Which were supposed
to be pumpkins.

-That's right.
-Don't know

what happened there.

Yeah, well, let's just say
as a gardener you make

a great sparkie.

Hey, I'm a good gardener.

Yeah, just ask him to tell
the difference

between a pumpkin
and a zucchini seed.

No. The guy said
they were pumpkin seeds.

-Yeah. And you believed him.
-Why wouldn't I?

Okay. Let's just say that
there are many amazing things

about you, darling,
but maybe gardening's

not one of them.

Yeah, I'll drink to that.

Me, too.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Hang on, Ruby,
I haven't forgotten you.

I mean, there's still no-one
in this family

who can do the crossword
as fast as I can.

And... and who's the first one
always picked

for Trivial Pursuit, eh?

Eh?
Yeah. I wonder.

Here we go.
Here we go.

Are you a monster?

A giant monster.
Oh, Cloverfield?

Frankenstein.

No!

Oh, I'm lost.
You with a hangover.

Yeah.
Five, four, three, two, one.

A dinosaur.
Oh, Godzilla. Ice Age.

-Jurassic Park!
-Yes! Yes.

Right. What's that then?

Five all. Time
for sudden death, who's up?

Yes, I think
it had better be you, Dave.

Okay. There you go.

Right, here we go.

Oh, piece of cake.

All right, you ready to go?

-Then go!
-Okay, it's a movie.

Two words.
First word.

Open, no, shut?

Ah... Robot. Robot.

Zombie. I don't know.

Oh, oh, shark,

shark okay shark, ah, Jaws.

No, that's one word. Shark Tale.

No, okay, all right
I don't know.

I don't know
any other shark movies.

Just forget that,
what's the second word.

Okay, there's five
seconds left.

Second word, come on.
Come on, That's the...

I don't know.
Are you sure it's not Jaws?

-Oh, I don't know, ah...
-Two, one!

-Sorry, time's up.
-Crocodile.

Crocodile Dundee!

Oh, well, why didn't
you just do that then?

Well, because I was doing
a crocodile.

Yes, exactly.

Oh, so it was my fault,
isn't it?

No, I didn't say that.

Well, you didn't have to.

Every time
we lose you blame me.

I do not.

What about last Christmas
when you said

my Phantom Menace was so bad
it made the movie look good?

Yeah, well, there's always
the exception to the rule.

-Oh, stop.
- Yeah, well, I can

-give you another example.
- Yeah, I bet you can.

Stop!

We were all having
such a good time.

What's going on?

Where are my parents?

Where have you gone?

We're still here, darling.

We haven't gone anywhere.

When you hold
onto things you shouldn't,

lose sight
of the things you should.

And if there's one thing
that we all know...

It's that life's
too short for that.

-Jules?
-Mm?

Let's get past this.

Whatever this is.

I think
it's called married life.

That's where we're at.

Where we've been,
where we're going.

But we're together, right?

Yeah, we're together.
