Yeah.

Yeah, although Homo sapiens

can be difficult.

I'm going to UCSB for zoology

and then I'm gonna be a vet.

-How about you?

-USC, business school.

The acorn doesn't fall far

from the tree and all that.

Cool, follow your dream and all that.

It's not my dream.

Maybe you can help me.

My cat Andy's been feeling really funky.

Well, is his tummy pouched out, bloated?

Because if it is, he probably has worms.

You might want to try this.

Six drops in every meal.

Thanks, doc.

Maybe I'll see you around?

Yeah, maybe.

Where might you see me around,

around where?

I don't know.

The commons, tomorrow after school?

See you.

(ALL SO DIFFERENT PLAYING)

Freshman varsity football,

basketball, swim team.

Voted best hair, best eyes, best kisser.

(SIGHS)

Drew Patterson

at the commons tomorrow.

Who am I kidding?

I'm so not ready for this.

TOM:
Mandy, do you want some breakfast?

(YAWNING)

(SYMPHONY TO ODE TO JOY PLAYING)

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Hello?

Do you like it?

Are you kidding? I love it!

Yeah, I got one, too.

-Oh, my gosh. Thanks, Daddy.

-Happy birthday, kitten.

Now we can stay in contact 24/7.

It's gonna be great, right?

Somebody, I think, asked for...

Contacts? Oh, my gosh.

You have got to be kidding.

(TOM LAUGHING)

Yes, I'm not sure why you need them.

You're already too beautiful.

In fact, promise me you're not gonna go

hang out with the delinquents at the lake.

Dad. Okay, I won't. I promise.

I cannot wait

to show Alexa and Cayenne this.

Oh, my gosh. Dad, you're the best.

And I'm going to the commons

right after school.

Okay, okay. Hey, wait, wait, wait.

There's one more birthday surprise,

perhaps the bestest.

You know how you've been talking

about going away to school, right?

Well, I think I may have found

the perfect compromise.

I've been working on this for a long time.

It's a duplex in Ventura.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can commute

to UCSB. I can get to work.

It's the same distance,

I'll show you on the computer.

Anyways, I'm down here in this level and

you have this whole top floor to yourself.

Huh?

Boy.

Those two apartments are so close.

-Right?

-Yeah.

Just like you and me. It's perfect.

Hey, kitten, don't forget to floss.

(SCREAMING)

I couIdn't very well tell him

that the concept was only

slightly less terrifying

than being buried alive.

Especially after he just bought me
