We're almost there.

Is that supposed

to make me stop?

You're gonna make me crazy.

I'm gonna have to pull over.

So pull over.

Lauduree!

Trying to sleep.

Did gigi call?

Yeah.

What'd you tell her?

The truth.

Sh*t! Ree!

Just kidding.

You're not gonna believe what

happened... my phone died.

It jumped right out of the canoe

into the lake, and Tommy tried...

Okay.

Good night,

my little boobaloo.

Good night,

my little sugar booger.

Thanks, Ree.

Did you have fun?

Yeah.

Then what's wrong?

He's here now, and I just want

to cuddle up.

Well, can't you tell him

to go home?

Yes.

Y'all having a slumber

party in here!

Tommy, I am tucking

my daughter in.

Can I watch?

That is so wrong!

Tommy, this is Lauduree.

She's gonna save

the world someday.

Hi.

Hi.

Oh, you're waiting

for me,

Aren't you, sweetie?

Okay, I'll just

be one minute.

Okay, rooster.

Did you water your plants?

Did you water your trees?

Uh-huh.

Do you forgive me?

Okay, guys.

Here is your extra

credit question,

and you have 15 minutes

to answer.

Why...

Does science matter?

For makin' babies!

Actually, Alex,

that's an excellent answer.

And if you guys can

answer that using science,

you will get 25 extra points,

which you guys need, 'cause

your test scores are dismal.

So, not a great way to start

the year, guys, okay?

See you guys writing...

already. Good.

"Science says that

everything around us

"has an invisible reason

for existing:

"The sky...

"Electricity...

"Chlorophyll...

"The color of

someone's irises.

"Science brings me

closer to the world.

"Science is also the only way

we're going to figure out

"how to make our planet

safe for future generations.

"Solutions for global warming

"must be researched now.

We're at the tipping point."

"Dear Lauduree...

"I went to California

to follow my dream

"of becoming a makeup artist

for the stars.

"I left you $50

for food and other things.

"I want you to call grandma.

"This is not goodbye forever.

Love, Mom."

Hey, hon. Just stopping by

to say hi.

Hi.

Your mom wanted me to check

on you on my way to work.

Wait a minute, my phone.

Hey.

I-I can't hear you, the reception's

bad out here. Hang on.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I have a test tomorrow.

Well, if your mom forgets to come

home tonight, you call me.

She's doing 'mary kay.'

I know what

she's doing, hon.

Have her call me.

Consider that my

rain dance for the day.

As the heat wave continues,

we'll try to keep you cool

here at WUXI.

Mom.

Pretty pro, huh?

Boo!

La la la la! Stupid a**hole

piece of sh*t!

Screw you!

F*** you!

Oh. Hi.

I didn't see you

sitting there.

My name is Neel.

I just moved here.

Lauduree's very pretty.

Where'd it come from?

My mom made it up.

She was obsessed

with french things.

Is she not alive anymore?

No.

What are you reading?

An article that says

that the buildup

of carbon dioxide

is killing off coral.

It's poisoning

their food source,

so they're spitting out

their own tissue

and starving to death.

It's why they're

turning white.

Are you going to the Science

Club meeting tomorrow?

I'm trying to read.

Ms. Markovi's really cool.

I think she's Macedonian.

I'll save you a seat.

Hey, it's Tanya and Ree.

Leave us a message

after the beep.

Hey, girls, it's Gigi.

I'm inviting y'all

for dinner tomorrow.

Ed, his daughters,

and the grandkids

are making a special trip

down from Owensboro.

I got really good news.

Okay, call me. Bye.

Hey.

Yeah, I just gotta go get

something from my locker.

Hey, how's it goin', buddy?

How's my little science
