I think your mom's looking down

at youfrom heaven right now.

And if you look

really closely...

I'll bet you'll see

she's waving.

I really appreciate

everything you're doing here...

and whatever you believe in

is fine.

OK, your heaven is fine for you.

Molly's mother was an atheist

and so am I.

I don't want you telling her...

she's somewhere she isn't, OK?

Yes, Mr. Singer.

I'll just continue to tell Molly

her mother's in the bathtub.

Did you ever undress

in front of a dog?

What's the matter, sweetie?

Can't sleep?

Did you have a bad dream?

You OK?

How about I break out

some graham crackers...

and we'll sit

and watch the late-late show...

till youfall asleep, OK?

Don't hit your nose.

I'll go get the stuff.

A recent report

from the Surgeon General...

links cigarette smoking

to lung cancer.

Statistics show that one

out of every ten male smokers...

will die from lung cancer.

Meanwhile,

in Washington today...

President Eisenhower announced

that he'll...

Here you go, Mol.

...fact-finding tour

to South America.

The vice president will visit

Venezuela, Argentina...

Molly, what... what are you doing?

Molly, look...

Cigarettes are for adults.

I'll get you

bubblegum cigarettes tomorrow.

Molly, stop it!

Now, what's the matter?

I really feel

like I should stay.

Well, it's your house.

I just can't be late

for this meeting. l...

Then you better go.

You know what it is?

Mr. Potato Head's

in from Trenton.

I can't be late.

Really? The Mr. P?

The one and only.

You better get

your heinie going.

Yeah. I'm gone. Bye.

All right, well...

Bye. Thanks.

You know what I discovered

about your dad?

He likes to eat cookies in bed.

Can you get that cornerfor me?

Just pull it down, right there...

The white one.

Thank you.

Malamutes or whatever

they call those things...

they look like little humps.

This is where my mommy sleeps.

You're right.

Your mommy used to sleep here.

When's she coming back?

You know, Molly, I...

She's not coming home...

because when you die...

the angels

take you up to heaven.

Well, then I want to die, too.

Now, darling,

you don't want to die.

It's too soon.

Was I bad?

No. People don't die

because you're bad.

They die

because it's their time.

Lots of things happen...

but no, you...

You were not bad at all.

You're wonderful.

And think of all the people

who are here now who love you.

They'd be so sad and upset

if you went.

And your daddy loves you.

He really needs you, too.

But my dad doesn't think

she's in heaven.

Well, maybe deep down

inside he does...

and he's just so jealous

of those angels...

who get to play

with your mommy every day...

he just can't bring himself
