They wanna come home with us.

No, sweetheart.

E Buzz would get upset. Robbie!

Why?

He's not used to having

other pets around. Robert!

How would you like it

if I brought home a new baby?

That's even better than a kitten!

- Mom, I have a great idea...

- No, we are not buying a television.

Mom, a present for Dad. It's a bargain.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom, where are you?

Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Robbie!

Mom!

Robbie!

Hi.

Hi.

Are you lost, sweetheart?

Are you afraid, honey?

Well, why don't you come with me?

No.

All right. I'll sing you a song...

...till your mommy comes back.

God is in his holy temple

Earthly thoughts

Be silent now...

- Where's Carol Anne?

- I don't know.

She was just here.

Carol Anne?

Baby?

Beneath the sk...

Carol Anne, honey, what happened?

Did you get lost?

I don't know.

- Thank you.

- My pleasure.

Such a... lovely child.

Oh, thank you so much.

Sorry, honey. We stopped into a shop.

I thought you were there with us.

- Honey, what is it?

- Mom... I wanna go home.

- Very unusual.

- They're just drawings.

- Ugly.

- Aww!

You know that she can

see colours with her hands.

Mama, we don't wanna

hear that stuff, OK?

And we don't want Carol Anne

to hear it most of all.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

How do you know what we

should be afraid of? You weren't there.

Why don't you tell me? It might help.

- I did tell you.

- Not everything.

- I don't remember everything.

- Try.

Well... first the canary died.

And then the... the chairs went all funny...

...and I thought

it was kind of exciting, you know.

And then...

...Carol Anne was gone...

...and I...

Honey, what is it?

(whispers) Nothing.

Nothing. I just wanna get on

with our lives. It's over.

Diane... Diane, you've got to go

unafraid into this life.

You don't want to instil fear into

that child who's truly gifted...

...and filled with knowledge.

- I don't want her to be gifted!

- You don't mean that.

I'm going to bed, Mama. Good night.

I'll be there if you need me.

(phone rings)

Yes?

Yes. I'll be good.

I love you, too.

Good night, Grandma.

- She knew you loved her so much.

- Oh, I didn't have one more day!

(Diane sobs)

What's wrong?

Honey...

...Grandma passed away last night.

Grandma died?

It's all right, Mom.

(young Diane)

Let's plant them over there, OK?

(young Grandma Jess)

What do you think? Here?

(Diane) No.

How about... here?

No. I want it there, right there!

- There?

- Right there.

- Absolutely here!

- OK.

You dig a hole. Dig it very deep.

Oh, Mom...

...you always made me feel so safe.

I love you so much.

(door opens)

Mom!

Can you put these on me

so I can be a ballerina with wings?
