Grace Is Gone Page #3

Let's do it!

Ahh!

[laughing]

[ringing]

[beep]

Hi. You've reached Grace, Stanley,

Heidi, and Dawn.

We're not home right now,

but if you leave a message,

we'll get back to you

as soon as possible.

[beep]

Hey.

Just wanted to let you know

the girls and I are...okay.

We just decided to take a little trip.

We're having a really good time.

[beep]

[closes phone]

[Man on radio]

...could face fines

up to $300 under the new law.

There's a flood watch in

parts of Western Minnesota

through tomorrow evening.

Tonight should be cloudy

with rain showers likely.

Isolated thunders--

Good morning.

Good morning.

Where are we?

I'm not entirely sure.

We should call school

and tell them we're

going to be absent.

Let's think of something

fun to do today.

Can you do that?

What's that?

What's that? What is that?

Supposed to be an answer

to my question?

Huh? Huh? No?

No.

Well, let's try that again.

Come on. Can we think

of something fun

that we want to do today?

No.

No? Why not?

We've talked about it

too much now.

So?

So now there's

too much pressure.

Too much pressure?

What are you doing?

You cannot just drive into this field.

Oh, yes, I can.

Dad, what

are you doing?

I'm doing doughnuts.

What's it look like?

We're going to get in trouble.

- No, no, we're not.

- Watch for the birds.

No, the birds fly out of the way.

What the heck are we doing?

Hey! Good morning, Dawn!

Are we on a road?

Nope.

Cool!

Fun, isn't it?

Yeah!

I used to do this all the time

when I was a teenager.

- Why?

- [Dawn squealing]

Why? I don't know.

It's fun, isn't it?

Why would you do this?

I don't know. I guess

I just like peeling out.

[Dawn squeals]

I didn't put a ton of thought

into everything I did

when I was a kid, Heidi.

All right. Let's go.

[Dawn]

Where are we going?

[Stanley]

Ahh!

Whew!

- [Dawn] Dad?

- Yeah.

Are we really going

to Enchanted Gardens?

Of course we are. Why?

I just wanted to make sure.

Okay.

- Dad?

- Yeah.

Can we get a monkey?

No.

What if it's really little?

Like littler than a puppy.

Still no.

Can we get a pony?

No.

An iPod?

No.

- Dad?

- Yes, Dawn.

Can we get our ears pierced?

No. Not till you're 13.

You know the rules.

Dad?

[Heidi]

Be quiet, Dawn.

What? Do I hear something?

- Dawn!

- I don't hear anything--

Dawn!

...at all, no, no.

Be quiet!

Girls, come on.

Straighten up.

I got a surprise for you.

What is it?

We're going to stop

and see Grandma.

I can get in around back.

Just wait here.

[snoring]

My lamp.

[sultan laughs]

So you want to marry

my daughter.

[Aladdin]

I sure do. Boy!

Hey.

Hey, Uncle John.

What are you guys doing here?
