"There was the police car with four policemen
"that Clancy had sent from headquarters.
He held back the traffic
so Mrs. Mallard and the"--
- Ducklings!
-"...could march across the street
"right into the public garden.
"And then inside, they all
turned around to say"--
What to the policemen?
"'Cause they'd been so nice."
- Thank you.
-"'Thank you,'
"and the policemen smiled
and waved good-bye.
And when they reached the pond
and swam across to the Iittle island,"
- there was who?
- Mr. Mallard.
"Mr. Mallard,
just as he had promised.
I bet he missed them."
Mm-hmm.
"And the ducklings Iiked
the new island so much,"
they decided to what?
Live there.
Yes."And all day long,
they follow the swan boats and eat"--
Peanuts.
"When night falls,
"they swim to their Iittle
island with their parents,
and they go to"--
- Sleep.
-"Sleep."
And now... it's about that time.
Come on. One more.
Please? One more.
No. Mama's gotta go to work.
- Come on. Please?
- No. Tomorrow.
We're gonna step it out.
No, man. Let's...
See? I told you.
- Go, Dog! Go!?
- Goodnight Moon
and Make Way for Ducklings, twice.
Here she is, ladies and gentlemen.
Better late than never, Julia Sandburg.
One day while strolIin'
through the park
I overheard a lovers' conversation
They didn't say, "I love you, dear"
All they did was whisper
in each other's ear
They said Ooh-shoobe-doo-de, ooh
Ooh, ooh shoobe--
It was wonderful, as usual.
Thank you.
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
Julia, I'd Iike to introduce you
to a friend of mine.
- Hi.
- Hi. Big, big fan.
Great set tonight.
And congratulations
on the voice piece.
Oh, well, that was kind of a fluke.
- Marcus is with Delancy Records.
- Uh-huh.
You put this out yourself, right?
- More or less.
- Well, Iisten, we should talk.
We don't have the biggest budgets in town,
but we think maybe we could do
Production-wise.
Help out with promotion.
Great. Thank you.
Sure.
Sweetheart, you want this toast?
Chris, where's my, uh-- my briefcase?
- It's right there, Dad.
- Oh.
I sit okay if I stay over
at Toby Rutherford's on Saturday?
- Um...
- Did you sing?
- Yes.
- I guess so.
- How many songs?
- T al k to you r mom.
About ten.
Did people clap?
Yep.
Do you Iike cheese?
Some kinds.
I've got a late meeting
probably till around 7.
Can you get Chris from school?
He's got his kung fu thing
to learn at 4:
30 today.Yep.
- How'd it go last night?
- Good.
- Ill tell you more when I'm awake.
- Dad?
Yeah, I know. We're late.
Have you got your backpack?
- Yeah.
- Say good morning to your mother.
- Kiss, please.
- Good morning, Ma.
- Bye.
- Have a great day. Love you.
Bye, sweetie.
Be good.
And as for you...
Let's go to the park.
Oh. Okay. Let me see.
Come on. Let me see.
- Does it hurt?
- A Iittle bit.
- Okay.
- Just a small ow.
Yeah.
Oh, miss? Miss?
I think she have another one there.
Oh, no, thanks.
That's just a birth mark.
Yeah. I always had that.
Where's Maggie?
Oh, where, oh, where can she be?
I got you!
Okay, and then one last bounce,
and we have to go.
Okay, Maggie.
Time to go!
Come on, sweetheart.
Where's Maggie?
Oh, where, oh, where can she be?
Maggie!
Maggie!
Maggie!
Did you see a Iittle girl
in a blue coat?
No. Sorry.
Maggie!
Answer me!
Maggie!
Thank you very much.
Enjoy your weekend.
You, too.
She's lobbying for
a mountaintop somewhere,
under a tree and barefoot.
And then after,
well grill up some hot dogs.
You are-- You are such a Iiar!
Just because I don't think
we should rent out
Radio City Music Hall.
No. I'm just saying,
if we're gonna have a wedding,
we may as well have a wedding.
We will. Wait till you see
his dad's backyard.
- It is-- It's perfect.
- Mm-hmm.
Chris has been putting
a hell of a lot of work into that house.
I haven't been down there
in a couple of weeks, but I hear--
- It's stunning. It's really stunning.
- Really?
He says it isn't finished or anything
Iike that, but you can just tell.
You can tell.
He is just so talented.
when we say our vows. Who cares?
Hey, come on.
Your love will warm us all.
Exactly.
It's all right. It's, uh, you know,
by the water and everything.
It's very cool.
So when Celeste told me
that she and Chris had decided
to make honest people of each other--
... finally,
it wasn't exactly a complete surprise.
We already had the invitations
for this engagement party
printed up, to be honest.
Hired the caterers.
We were a Iittle ahead of them.
But they've caught up nicely,
don't you think?
Aw.
Anyway, Chris, what can I say?
Chris is the kind of young man
that Dave and...
- Mom--
- I'm sorry.
I promised I wasn't gonna do this.
My Lord. Okay.
Well, if you think this is bad now,
just wait for the wedding.
Um, anyway...
All right. Here.
Let's see now. Yes.
It's an old clich
that you're not losing a daughter,
you're gaining a son.
And, uh, we are also, of course,
gaining a grandchild.
I don't know if I'm ready for that.
But we just want to say, Chris,
welcome to our family.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
- Doug.
- Yeah.
Well, I -- I am Doug Sandburg.
I am Chris's dad.
And, uh, first, we'd Iike to thank
Dave and Sarah
for everything they've done
for this wonderful event.
Uh, Chris has chosen his in-laws well.
He's a smart man.
