in the nature of things

and no respect

for the mystery of life.

Yeah.

And part of the mystery of life

is death.

And part of the nature of things

is accepting that.

I don't want him to die.

Well, look who's lost

confidence in me, huh?

Are you ready for a story?

Which one should I read?

How about

The Frog Prince?

You can follow...

He's fixed.

You fixed him.

That's what I told you

I was doing.

I thought you were

hurting him,

like a doctor.

No, I was fixing him,

like a Ben.

Look at you.

You're a mess.

I'm not a mess.

You get so worked up.

Sorry.

No, you don't

have to apologize.

We can't help

what we feel.

But we can help

what we think, right?

So why would you think

I would hurt Teddy?

I don't know.

You don't know what you think?

I thought you were mad at me.

Why would I be mad at you?

For looking out the window.

I was concerned when you were

looking out the window, yeah.

I didn't want you

to see something scary.

But I fixed it, right?

So, we don't have to worry

about that anymore.

I know.

But you yelled.

Even if I was mad,

I take care of you.

Always.

Okay.

Okay.

How long does it take trees

to grow?

Maybe 30, 40 years.

This has looked like this

for 40 years?

More than that, actually,

because we moved here

almost 25 years ago,

and the trees were big then too.

Why does Glen get to leave?

Well, he goes to work.

We could leave too.

What do you think?

You could try it on.

Sure.

Oh, that looks so pretty.

Do you like it?

Do you want to try it

without the other

shirts underneath?

I always wear these.

Would to try it?

Now...

How is that one?

That's... that's not as tight

as the other one, right?

Good.

Do you want me to adjust it?

It's adjustable back here.

- No.

- No?

Okay, great.

Great.

Well, I think that

should work better

under the clothes.

I can do it.

Okay.

Okay.

Don't... don't forget...

don't forget to come out

and show me.

If... if you want to.

It was... it was really nice.

I think she liked the

clothes that we found.

She looked great in them,

really beautiful.

I hope she liked them.

Good.

See?

It's good.

Yeah, it's good.

She's...

She's sweet.

Dear Universe,

thank you for the thoughts

I'm going to be thinking.

Thank you for the dreams

I'm going to be dreaming.

Thank you for this moment

we are making.

I wish for you

to keep me honest

and to keep an eye on Ben.

Sincerely, Leia.

Leia?

Good morning.

Leia?

Leia!

Leia.

- Yes.

- Oh, my God.

I... I... I...

I didn't see you out there.

- Don't do that.

- Sorry.

- Don't do that.

- Sorry.

You know what we're

gonna do today?

We're gonna get you

an ID card

so that...
