- Well, we got the right place.

- Yes you do.

- It's so pretty.

- Ooh, I'm so happy you're here!

- Me too.

- Oh!

- Give me some!

- Oh, you'll get some.

- Good to see ya, kid!

You look great.

My god, look at you!

Oh my god, you look amazing.

I can't believe you did all

this.

- Yeah, you proud?

- Mmm, proud!

- C'mon inside.

- Okay!

- Hey, Francis, good to see you!

Hey, I got the list.

We're gonna head out to the

store.

Anybody need anything?

- Yes!

We need bottles of wine, vodka,

beer.

- Wife's a lush!

- Shut it.

Oh, get something for dessert

too, please.

- Ice cream?

- Ah, see what they have.

- All right, I'll leave it up to

Liam.

We'll stop at the dairy

mart on the way there.

- Mm-hmm!

- All right.

- If it's okay, I'm

gonna put you down here.

That way you don't have to

deal with too many stairs.

- Stairs don't bother me none.

- He's wearing one of those

watches that records your steps.

- Yeah, it counts my steps,

measures my heart rate,

it even notifies me when my

subscription to playboy arrives!

- Sh, sh, stop it.

- He's in better shape than I

am.

- Oh, don't say that.

- I'll wake you for cocktails.

- Okay.

- All right.

I'm putting you two upstairs.

- Are there more stairs?

- Oh!

- What did you bring,

your whole closet?!

- Oh, this is great!

You know, you could

have stuck us anywhere.

- Oh, speak for yourself.

- There's plenty of closet

space, a big balcony,

private bathroom down the hall.

- Oh!

- Dad?

- Uh-huh?

What?

Oh.

- Look at that view.

- Oh, that's perfect.

Oh my god.

But, honey, you gotta

stop worrying about us.

- I couldn't figure out what to

wear,

so I bought everything.

Including the sheets.

- Yeah.

- You're kidding.

- No, you've spoiled her.

- Oh, I couldn't figure

out who slept on this bed.

I mean, it could be

somebody who's been infected

by some horrible rash

or lord knows what else.

- Yeah, well...

- Now, I have something

I want to show you.

It's all my new clothes.

- No, no, no, honey, just try

'em on

in a little while.

I want a moment with my

daughter.

Mm-hmm.

Now, you told us to

bring something special,

right, something that

meant something to us?

- Mm-hmm.

- Have I ever showed this to

you?

No?

This is our family's scrapbook.

It goes back many generations,

all the way back to Ireland.

Huh?

Yeah, it's full of memories.

And in the back, there's some

blank pages,

ready for you to put some more

in.

Oh, ah.

Here, just flip through

it when you get a second.

- It's perfect.

I love you.

- I love you too.

Okay, honey!

All yours!

- Thank you!

- I'm gonna

get a drink, all right?

- Ah, you would be so proud of

me.
