and that of the world.

Momma Peg does arts and crafts!

That's great.

And George told me that

you do woodworking, Mr. Johnsten.

Just call him Eugene. That's his name.

Eugene.

Come on. I want to show you your room.

I'll get that.

No. It's OK. I like to carry things,

it's good for me.

I bet you went to college, huh?

I want to go to college.

Here's you all's room,

it's the nursery

You'll love this. Paw made that cradle.

Johnny helped him.

Of course they need to paint it.

They made this?

Yeah. Here's the bathroom.

We're going to share that, 'cause

my bedroom's right through there.

So if you get lonely at night and you

want to talk you can just go like,

knock on the wall

and then I'll know it's you

and I can come out and we can talk.

Shouldn't I tell Pat about her thing?

I should replace it.

No. Don't worry about it.

She's got lots of them.

And I want her to like you.

And Madeleine, you keep calling her Pat.

Her name's Peg.

Oh, f***.

I'll let you alone right now.

OK.

I want to hear all about how you

and George met and everything.

Was it love at first sight?

Yeah.

Really?

Yeah. I saw him at the gallery

and a week later we were married.

I love that.

It's so...

f***in' cool,

Madeleine.

Can I help you unpack?

There you are.

We thought we'd lost you, George.

Look at you! You just light up a room.

Hey, man.

Hi.

Where you going?

I'm late.

Some of us do real work, you know.

Where's Madeleine?

Sit down, it's breakfast!

Hi. If you go to the mall today get me

the Cliffnotes for "Huckleberry Finn".

Let's go to the mall.

I love that book. It's my favorite.

Don't you love it?

No. I'm getting the Cliffnotes.

It's for his GED.

He didn't graduate high school.

We just loved each

other too much to wait.

- Ashley! Do you ever stop it?

- No.

See you later.

How you getting to work?

Norman's giving me a ride.

If he ever f***in' gets here!

Let's go to the mall now. Let's do.

You'll love the mall.

It's got like a thousand fountains

and it's got this fudge factory!

And it's got a Nike store,

and a Barnes and Noble's,

and I can show you Aladdin's Castle

which is this arcade where

I first saw Johnny.

And there's Joanne's Nuthouse which is

where you get nuts and almonds.

Hey guys,

Madeleine wants to go to the mall!

Johnny Johnsten! Johnny Johnsten!

Johnny Johnsten! Johnny Johnsten!

Goddamn it!

Who's got their Panther pride?

Count down, boys.

Johnny, 200 more days. Panther pride!

Panther! Let's catch scratch

those motherfuckers!

Next year,

I guaran-goddamn-tee it they're going

to f***in' at least go to the f***in'

Superbowl again.

Guaran-goddamn-tee it.

I'm serious.
