Little Secrets Page #2

They'll think the movers lost it.

They'll be upset,

but they won't be able to blame me.

If you want to properly conceal

the evidence come with me.

Come on.

- I need your name.

- Philip.

Did you just say, "fill it up"?

No, I said, "Philip." Like P-H-l-L-l-P.

You mean, Philip.

- Where'd you get that strange accent?

- Chicago.

Interesting. I'm Emily.

A milli-what?

Like a millimeter or millipede?

I don't get it.

Emily, Like Emily Dickinson

or Emily Bronte.

Who are they?

Only the most famous female poet

and author ever to Live.

You owe me 50 cents.

- For what?

- My services.

I've Labeled your item

in case you ever need it back.

Okay, there you go.

Wait, is there tons of broken stuff in there

of other people?

Is that what those kids were doing

waiting in Line?

They tell me their secrets,

which often involve broken merchandise.

How does somebody become

a professional secret keeper?

I didn't know anybody

who could keep a secret...

...and I've never spoiled a secret

in my entire Life.

So I knew it was a marketable skill.

Anything of yours in there?

You know my secret.

Didn't you hear me?

I keep secrets. I don't share them.

Especially my own.

The girls Look Like

they're having fun at camp.

I'm not sure about Harold,

but I think you should go up there.

I don't believe you, Mom.

You watched my video?

You Left it on the coffee table.

I was curious.

That's worse than reading my mail.

I'm sorry, Emily, I didn't know.

Rather than ship me off, why can't you

encourage me for what really matters?

You have our encouragement.

Can I please be excused?

I have to change.

Kurt Besters conducting Innovators

in Washington, D.C.

It's Live on PBS.

Samuel Cardon is the guest performer.

Neil is on his way over.

We're watching the Braves.

- I thought you knew.

- I've been planning this all week.

Can't you watch it someplace else?

Where do you suggest we go?

A sports bar?

You'd let your new child watch

whatever it wanted whenever.

Emily!

Why don't I tape the concert

while we're watching the game?

I know you can do it.

- I know it can be done.

- It's not the same if it isn't Live.

Who has ever heard of a family

with only one TV?

Please be home.

I can't believe this.

It'll turn up when we unpack the rest,

or find that missing box of photos.

Or all of David's tennis clothes.

It's over 100 years old.

You know what that's worth?

- Probably those packers.

- Come on, Don. Worry about it tomorrow.

Pop the champagne.

Let's christen our new home.

Hey! Look on the bright side.

Burglars could have stolen the whole thing.

- Hello.

- Hi. I'm Emily Lindstrom. I Live next door.

- Maybe Philip told you about me.
