our yard like maniacs this morning.

Look, I don't need

your daughter's help.

She came to me,

she asked for a fair trade.

I agreed. She works hard,

she gets to ride.

And that's all I expect out of her.

Here.

You can borrow this.

Well, um, great.

That's- That's all I needed to know.

Well, here you go. I thought I'd jazz up

our veggie burgers with soy cheese.

What I would give for a Big Mac right now.

Well, you used to let me eat them.

Well, that's before I saw Super Size Me.

Do you want some amino acid?

No, thanks. I'd rather die.

You know, honey, you said something

today that... was a little upsetting.

Yeah? What was that?

That you don't have any friends.

Oh. Yeah, that.

Well, what happened to Mary Powell?

Did you guys have a falling out?

Uh, no. She was my math tutor.

You paid her to come over.

Oh. Well, how about Ernie Shmelding?

- Uh, he moved.

- He did?

Yeah, like last year.

Wow. Oh! You know that

Veronica from my art class?

Now, she seems like a really nice girl.

Maybe we could invite her over for tea.

Mom! She's old.

She's like 20.

Well, then I don't know what to say.

You don't have to say anything.

I mean, I've come to grips with my situation.

And besides, I've got

a new four-legged friend.

Just promise you'll

be careful out there.

I will. Don't worry.

I'll even wear that funky helmet.

Thank you.

Now eat your dinner.

Yeah, that, uh, soy cheese

really kicks it up a notch.

I don't know why you make me eat these.

- Kids should not have to eat veggie burgers.

- It's not that bad.

Mom, it's not beef.

I love beef.

Hi there, big boy.

How are you doing this morning?

I have a treat for you if you

promise not to tell my mom.

Good morning, Mr. Longpre.

You may as well start

with Tinkerbell's stall.

- You gonna help?

- Here.

Probably need that too.

- (# It's a long road home)

- Tinkerbell.

(# And I'll get there)
