This is a surprise, I'll tell you later.

- Come on, tell me right now.

You're gonna love it. This gonna

Are you excited?

Please, don't peek.

- I'm not.

Okay, look!

Are you stunned?

What am I looking at?

The house!

I bought it!

On a cliff?

That's what you want, a cliff.

but it's got a quiet intensity.

It's very warm.

One honey.

One bedroom only.

Honey?

I can't believe I let this happen again.

What's wrong?

I can't marry you!

You're just like my first husband!

He didn't want kids, either!

When did I say I didn't want kids?

You don't have to say it,

it's so obvious. It's joke!

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about this bachelor

pad with one bedroom!

Where's the kid supposed to sleep?

Oh, honey. Have you ever

heard the word "sofa bed"?

Have you ever heard the word "stupid"?

- Stupid? We say stupid?

- Stupid!

Are you saying this house couldn't work for kids?

Oh, no. It's perfect.

Where are the kids, honey?

They're just out back playing on the cliff.

I can't believe what I'm hearing, Sarah.

- I love kids.

- Oh, you don't. I saw you at the daycare today.

Oh, no, no, you're talking about

other people's children.

You just see me with the kid I know.

You know, my own flesh and blood.

My nephew!

- You never mention, you had a nephew.

- I love my nephew.

What's his name?

I wanna say, Mason.

Clifford, little Clifford.

How old is he?

I haven't seen him was since the christening.

He'd be older now.

Older now?

- Yeah, like 10.

You know, my brother Julie and

I don't speak as much as we'd like to.

I will tell you this. I've heard that

Clifford is a very special boy.

Where is that little monster?

Well, you did it, didn't you?

You did it again, didn't you?

You're banned from the flight!

They're not gonna allow you back on the plane.

Which means that I'm gonna miss

the convention tomorrow.

Which means I'm gonna lose
