Mom?

How's it going in there?

Good job.

Hello?

If you keep knocking like that,|you are going to wake me up.

- That's the...|- You don't want to wake me up.

If you want my opinion...

Nobody wa hts you r op h oh|Nobody wa hts you r op h oh

- Stay out of it.|- Did Dad even ask?

- I'm not talking to you!|- You always do this.

You should take charge|and turn this car around. This is...

- Mom.|- Hey, you.

- Here, let me.|- Beth, back.

We were worried, honey.|Are you okay?

I'm good, honey.|I'm great, I feel fine.

I'm the excited one now.

Really? Why is that?

Well, let's see.

- I have Fritos, Cheetos...|- No, Joy...

- Oh, Timmy... Snowballs.|- No, stop it!

- Mom, a Nutter Butter.|- That's enough, stop it.

It's not right... not now,

not when April is hard at work|making all your favorites.

Not when she called to check|the ingredients of a certain recipe.

I'm nipping this|in the bud right now.

I bet she called collect.|I will never call collect.

Aren't you the most|perfect thing ever?

Did someone say April?

Yes, Grandma, she's your|other granddaughter.

I know.|I thought she was dead.

- Honey, don't. That's wasteful.|- Look, I'm gonna say this once.

What?

We're gonna have|a very nice time.

- You don't actually believe that.|- It's possible, I think, yes.

- Well, you're a better man than me.|- That's funny. "Better man. "

Don't get me wrong.|I'm glad we're going.

This way, instead of April|showing up with some new piercing

or some ugly new tattoo,|and... God forbid... staying overnight,

this way, we get to show up,

experience the disaster|that is her life, smile through it,

and before you know it,|we're on our way home.

- We don't know it's a disaster.|- I know. Believe me, I know.

- Miss me?|- You bet.

April's doing a lot better.

She's had a couple of real jobs,

she's found a new place,

Eddie the drug dealer is history,

and... she's met this new guy.

Great.

This guy sounds promising.

- Is that so?|- Oh, yeah, he does.

And why is that?|Tell us, please, why?

Apparently, this guy Bobby...

reminds her of me.

Eugene, somebody's at the door.

Who is it?

Hi, I'm in 3C.|I need some help.

Help?

- Hi. I have a problem.|- Who is it?

It's the new girl in 3C.|Says she's got a problem.

- What?|- Problems, Eugene.

The girl's got problems.
