essential ingredient.

What might

that be?

Heart.

Sure.

Hey, hey!

I'll drop kick you

from here to Miami!

no, you will not.

C'mon, Zeus,

let's get outta here.

Phil, get my bag,

will you?

There you go.

You deserve it.

let's go!

Great.

Okay, so let me

get this straight.

You don't want us to have

any fun over the Summer.

I don't want you hanging

out with borderlines.

Craig isn't

borderline, mom.

And ditching your

enrichment classes.

Well, we're just-

We were just-

Rescheduling.

Yes, right.

Grounded.

This block,

one week.

Oh, no, mom.

Zeus!

Zeus.

Where'd you guys

find him?

Actually he found me,

and you are?

I'm Jordan Barnett.

I'm with him.

I see you and Zeus

have become friends.

Well, miracles

sometimes happen.

What's that?

Some photos

I took this morning.

What?

I can't

believe-

Oh, my God!

charming.

Looking good, mom!

Working on

two weeks.

Here.

Your house has a

satellite dish, doesn't it?

Yeah.

Mom?

Okay, but not

all the channels.

C'mon, Zeus!

Your dog was on the boat

with me all day.

Really?

I'm sorry, I won't

let that happen again.

No, actually it sort of

seemed to suit him.

Really.

I'd like to

take him out again if -

Sure, you can take him

on a cruise to Antarctica,

But he's Jordan's dog.

Would you mind

If I just ask

him something?

Go right ahead.

Gimme that!

Can I just watch this

for a minute?

Girls, girls,

time out.

Where's Jordan?

In there.

What are you

watching?

hello.

Oh, hi.

Hi, can I come in?

Yeah, sure.

"braveheart".

Wow!

Did you do

all these?

Yeah.

That one's gonna be the cover

for my dad's opera score.

Your dad

writes opera?

It's a rock opera.

Most of the time

he does music

For commercials

and really tall elevators.

It's only

to pay the bills.

we have now brought the

psychic friends network...

Love that

satellite dish, huh?

This is gonna

sound really lame,

But we don't even

have one TV in our house.

We're like a media

impaired family.

Oh.

Hey, is this

your mom?

Yeah... She died.

Sorry to hear that.

You must miss her a lot.

Can I talk to you

for a minute?

Yeah.

I think Zeus is

a very special dog.

What do

you mean?

Well...

I think that Zeus

is capable of-

Inter-species

communication.

What's the big deal?

I talk to Zeus all the time.

Ah,

But Zeus is talking

with my dolphin.

You own

a dolphin?

I don't own her,

Roxanne lives in the bay,

But I kinda

take care of her.

She used to

live in a tank.

We're reintroducing her

into the ocean.

Now the problem is,

That she doesn't really

take to other dolphins.

But she seems

to like your Zeus.

So I was thinking,

It might be

really interesting
