I can, but I did not bother. What I have lost?

Sorry I did not come for a long time, but now I'm here.

We understand, baby. You saved the world the financial criminals.

Except your mother's choice, I have never been safer.

What a joke!

Good night baby. - We love you. Welcome home.

- How are you? - Everything's wrong.

- What's wrong? - Tree.

Not only it is artificial ...

but color sequence, the mother has taught us, it's totally bogus.

Yes. Normal e "Red - Green - small sweets"!

Who are you, "Rainbow Man"? - It was always so.

- At least all good holidays. - Oh yes.

Actually, it's a direct correlation between Christmas tree kinds and arrangement.

- Tea? - Nothing.

- Come on... - Nothing.

Well ... I was planning to buy the house.

What?! Already sold it. They knew?

- Not quite. - Wait. I did not know you're thinking of moving.

Go home? That's awesome! - It sucks. - Why?

They sold my house a stranger.

In their defense: I assume that "not even" means they had no idea?

Good. They did not know.

Why do not you buy it yourself? - I am home. It's full of them in the city.

Yes, but this is my house. - First, it was never yours.

It was ours. I you're a little selfish.

Selfish? I offer I buy my house!

Good...

I do not want to be hard on yourself. - But in a way, you are.

Yes. I ... It's great to have you here. In particular Christmas.

And I know ... I do not like to force things. I do not like!

And I know you could not be here in recent years, because it was very hard.

And understanding. But, you know. Some people...

even want to be with their families, when it's hard. - I was at work.

Safe! In court, Christmas.

Hey...

Look at me!

Glad you're here. And I'm excited to move back.

But you can not shut to all, and then expect to read your thoughts.
