Kevin? Yes?

I just wanted to check and see if you were awake.

I'm awake.

You still can't sleep?

No.

Maybe if you just closed your eyes. I'm not tired. I've been in bed all day, all

week. But if you just closed... I'm not sure that you understand what it's like

being on bed rest.

No, but I... I am only allowed to be on my feet for five minutes a day. I can't

walk around. I can't cook. I can't clean. I can't do any of my church work

any work.

So I have to depend on everybody else for everything.

Which means that until I have this baby, my entire life is on hold. I can't even

take a shower every day. So on top of everything else, my hair looks terrible

and I smell.

You don't smell.

Liar.

And what about my hair? You've never looked more beautiful.

Oh, right.

Oh, don't do that.

Do what? Nod. Like you understand, you don't understand, you'll never

because men can't have babies.

Which means that if we have any more children, I might end up like this on

rest again and again and again. And where will you be while I'm having all

children that you want? Where will you be while I am slowly going insane? Oh

yeah, you'll be at work having fun chasing criminals, doing crime fighting

stuff. And why is that?

Because men can't have babies?

Exactly. So please, please do not nod at me like you understand. You do not

understand.

Ruthie, is something wrong?

You okay?

I'm doing better than Kevin.

You can hear them all the way upstairs?

Yes, I can hear them. The neighbors can hear them. I think the man in the moon

can hear them.

I know this bed rest thing is what Lucy has to do for the baby.

But what about the rest of us?

Don't we count?

Can't we send her to a hotel or a camp for other angry pregnant women on bed

rest? It's not going to last forever.

True. We've only got like another month or two of this fun.

Then we get to enjoy the screams of a crying baby.

Boy, I can hardly wait.

You know, if this were Survivor, we would have voted Lucy off the island

ago. We can't vote her off. We just have to... Never mind.

Where's Lucy yelling at Kevin again?

Someday when you guys grow up, you're going to fall in love and get married

have babies, and then your wives will yell at you.

And then maybe you'll understand why Lucy is yelling at Kevin.

Why don't you try putting your pillow over your head? That works sometimes.

Try knocking.

Hey, we're all on the edge because of Lucy.

But that's no excuse to act like... Now what's going on?

I think Martin and Lucy should be roommates.

Because they have a lot in common.

Dad, seriously.

I can't take this anymore.

I have finals and papers and school.

I just need some sleep.

We all need some sleep. I love Lucy, but I am tired.

Lucy, the pillow isn't working.

We can still hear her.

I know there's no greater feeling than the love of family.

Where can you go when the world don't treat

you right? The answer is home.

That's the one place that you'll find seven heavens.

Seven heavens.

7 -7

Hello? Oh, no. Oh, hey, hey.

Everybody, up.

Up. We all overslept. Oh, come on, you guys.

You guys. It's going to be late.

Come on. Let's go.

Come on.

Come on.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Lucy, she'll get used to being on bed rest and settle down.

Who am I kidding? She's never going to get used to being on bed rest, and

everyone's exhausted, and I feel like a failure.

Yeah, kind of. She's my wife, and nothing I do makes her feel better. All

does is tell me how I don't understand how she feels or what she's going

through. Look, I don't think Lucy's ever going to get used to this, but she'll

survive it.

We all will.

Nice speech, but unlike the rest of the family, I can't hide up here where it's

all nice and quiet. I'm stuck on the front lines with an angry pregnant

mentioned this won't last forever.

Right now, a week feels like forever.

Hang in there.

Do I have a choice?

No.

But someday soon you'll have a baby.

Mom, my breakfast tray is ready, and I need my hairbrush. And I need my blue T

-shirt, the peacock blue one, not the light blue one, okay?

Oh, I put the baby monitor on now because I want to be able to hear her if

needs me.

Hearing Lucy isn't exactly a problem these days.

You don't understand how hard it is for her. I don't even understand, and I've

been pregnant, but I didn't have to go on bed rest.

It's really hard that final trimester without the added burden of not being

allowed to move. I mean, that would make anyone crazy.

Hello? Mom?

Are you there?

Lucy, I'll get that T -shirt for you. You just sit tight.

What else am I supposed to do?

She's so grateful.

Well, she's frustrated.

I'm waiting.

And patient.

Can you give me a ride to school?

I have to take the boys to school so your mom can stay here with Lucy, and I

still haven't changed or cleaned up, so I don't know if I'll have time. Sorry.

Lucy.

She's going to kill us all. You know that, don't you?

Where's Martin?

Why aren't you going to school with him?

I don't know if you've noticed with Lucy going insane and all, but lately Martin

has been in a permanent bad mood.

So if you can't take me, I think I'd rather take the bus than be abused by

strangers.

Where's Ruthie?

Is that Lucy?

I'm sorry if she's keeping you up at night.

I'm fine. I don't want to be late for school. Where's Ruthie?

She took the bus.

All right, see you.

Martin. Don't worry, I ate breakfast. Good, but is there something else going

on? Because lately, you've just been a little distant.

And Ruthie mentioned this morning that she was taking the bus because she

want to drive in with you.

If Ruthie doesn't want to drive with me, then it's Ruthie's problem, not mine.

So you should talk to her, not me.

Look, I'm fine.

I'm just...

I'm just tired like everyone else.

Mom, this is last month's Oprah.

Dad's wearing my pants.

David's wearing my shorts.

We're too tired to change.

We're too tired to go to school.

Well, you have to go to school, but you don't have to change.

She wants to talk to you. Tell her I already left.

But, Daddy, that's a lie.

Yes, Daddy, that's a lie.

I know you're there, Dad.

Dad, just because I can't move, I won't be ignored.

Dad, don't make me use my five minutes of walking time chasing you down.

Dad!

I'm on my way, Lou!

You look awful.

Thanks. Are you sick or something?

Just haven't been sleeping so well.

Yeah, me too.

Yeah.

I wrote down a list of books and articles for the girls in my teen

class to read.

Maybe we should just keep postponing the class until you can be there in person.

I've had to put my life on hold.

I've had to give up the things I wanted to do because of this pregnancy. I'm not

going to make the girls in my class suffer just because I have to.

Everyone's expecting me to be there today, but since I can't be there, I

you to hand this out, but no talking, no advising, no words of wisdom. This is

my class, my girls.

I just need you to post that list down at the church.

Are you okay?

I almost lost my baby, and now I'm a prisoner in my own home. Wait, not my

your home.

How okay should I be?

I should go.

Yeah.

We need to talk.

I'm sending you home.

You're firing me? No.

I want you to go home and take care of Lucy. She doesn't want me to take care

her. Look, I can't have you falling asleep on the job.

It's not the first time this week.

Take a couple of days off.

Don't send me home. Nothing I do makes Lucy happy. She just yells at me when

she's not yelling at everyone else. I can't even imagine what she's going to

to me if I'm available all day and all night. Let me stay. I promise I won't

fall asleep.

Please, I'll be good.

Get a hold of yourself, Ken Kirk.

And be a man.

It's just a couple of days.

Why did you take the bus this morning, and why are you avoiding me?

You don't want to know.

Yeah, I do.

You've been a jerk lately.

I told you you didn't want to know.

That's kind of mean, don't you think?

No, that's kind of honest.

Give me a break, will you? I'm tired.

Being tired is not an excuse.

You're not special.

If the rest of us can manage to be pleasant, why can't you?

Newsflash, the rest of you aren't all that pleasant.

You see, this conversation... It is exactly why I will be taking the bus

today. Fine, like I care. Take the bus.

No, not fine.

Fine will be you giving me a ride home.

And truly, I can't take your attitude anymore.

Yeah? Well, you're not that much fun to be around either.

Since when did you start hanging out at the bottom of the grading curve?

Okay, what's wrong, besides the grade?

Ruthie called me a jerk.

Oh.

What? You're my friend. You're supposed to tell me that Ruthie's a jerk for

calling me a jerk and that I'm not a jerk? You want me to lie, I'll lie.

You think I'm a jerk?

Lately, you've been a bit tense.

Tense? Yeah, that's French for jerk.

Hey, but I didn't know that you were having trouble in school.

I'm not having trouble. You're getting D's on papers. What's your definition of

trouble? Getting F's? And I'm not tense.

At our last home game, you got in a fight with the mascot.

The mascot.

That's tense, my friend. That's not tired.

I didn't get in a fight. You were standing in the middle of the field

some poor guy wearing a cat costume to bring it.

That's not one of your finest moments.

I told you, I'm just tired.

Lucy's driving everyone crazy.

Something's driving you crazy, and I wish that I knew what it was, because I

not know a lot, but I do know that your current mood has nothing to do with

Lucy.

Lucy, what are you doing?

I was cold and I wanted another blanket. What are you doing home?

You can't be walking around. You know what the doctor said.

Your mother's just downstairs. If you need a blanket, she'll get you one.

Well... I wanted to get my own length.

How long have you been up? Because whatever time you've been up gets

from your five -minute daily total, and I think that means no shower today. You

didn't already shower, did you? Yeah, stop.

Stop right there. Stop talking to me like I'm a baby.

I'm a grown woman.

Actually, an overgrown woman, a pregnant woman, and I don't need you counting

the minutes. I'm up every day. I can do that myself.

But you don't want anything to happen to the baby.

I am painfully aware of how fragile my condition is right now, and it doesn't

help to be reminded night and day by you and the rest of my well -meaning but

extremely annoying family.

And again, I ask, why are you home?

Captain Michaels wants me to take a couple days off.

I fell asleep at work. If you're not at work, you can't be here. This bedroom is

not big enough for the both of us.

So go find a place to hang out during the day and stay out of my way. There

to be something I can do.

Please, I want to help.

Well, Mom's taking care of food and magazines, and other than that, there

anything that you or anyone else can do.

I'm just stuck like this until I deliver, and I hate it.

What? I talked to your mom on the way up here, and she said your advisor from

school called today.

So? So she thought there might be a problem.

She's wrong.

Everything's fine.

I don't want any more kids.

What about Lucy in school and her advisor?

She says everything's fine.

Maybe Eric knows something.

No offense, but I'm her husband. If I don't know what's going on, why would

Don't listen to me.

Okay, I won't.

He's not there.

Maybe he ran away.

Oh, wait. It's me who wants to run away.

He should be there.

I don't think he knows anything. And again, I don't think there's anything to

know. I'll page him. Oh, I'll have to page him later. I've got to pick Sam and

David up at an after -school play date. Do you mind keeping an eye on things

around here for me?

I'll change and be right back. Oh, wait, wait.

So you can hear Lucy better.

I hear Lucy in my nightmares.

I mean dreams.

Where's Martin?

I don't know. I took the bus home. Oh, he's probably at practice.

Maybe he'll stay at practice forever.

Oh, come on. He has been in real pain lately.

To everyone, not just me.

He's just tired.

We're all tired.

And remember, this situation isn't going to last forever.

Lucy needs us.

I'm going to go take a nap.

Hey, help me put the laundry away first, will you?

It's all folded. It just needs to be delivered to everyone's room.

Sure, I'll do it.

We need sleep, right?

Let's go, kid.

I got it!

I got it! I got it! I got it!

Stay out of my way. Hey, I had it. You were in my way. I called it.

You just stick to your position and I'll stick to mine. I would if I didn't have

to cover your butt.

What'd you say?

Hey, don't get angry just because you need my help. I don't need your help.

You're the one that needs help.

Why can't we all just get along?

Shut up.

Okay, what's the problem here?

As usual, Martin thinks he's playing every position.

Yeah, right.

I called the play. It was mine.

If you hadn't have gotten in my way, I would have caught the ball.

Okay, everybody back to positions.

Baxter, you're in.

Shortstop.

I'm shortstop. Not today, you aren't.

And not tomorrow if you don't change your attitude.

Hit the showers.

What attitude?

Look, I don't know what's going on with you, but I can't have that kind of

attitude on my team. It's disruptive.

I'm your best player. What are you going to do, bench me?

I can not only bench you, I can kick you off the team.

So if you need help... I don't need help.

I don't need you. And I don't need the team.

Martin, man, what are you doing?

Get... Stick around, Martin. We'll be talking after practice.

Okay, everybody, the show's over.

Get back to your positions. Let's go.

Play ball.

Hello?

Hello?

Yes, this is Kevin Kinkirk.

Yes, I'm Lucy's husband.

I was just putting laundry away. Okay.

Your advisor from school just called me.

He says if you don't get your last term paper turned in by the end of next week,

you won't graduate.

He said when he called you earlier and told you this, you told him that you

don't care if you graduate.

Why didn't you tell him you're on bed rest?

It's none of his business.

Lucy, if he understood what's going on, maybe you could work something out, get

some more time.

It's not important.

Not important to graduate after all the hard work you've done? I can't get the

paper done while I'm in bed, so forget about it.

I'll just take the incomplete, finish next semester, and graduate in June. But

know you were counting on graduating in December. You wanted your diploma before

the baby comes.

Well, I'm not going to get what I want, am I?

So I'm the problem, right?

There's really no choice.

Effective immediately, you're off the team.

Fine. Good luck with Almy, because we're going to need it.

What happened?

I'm off the team.

Temporary suspension, which will be permanent if my attitude doesn't change.

No. Yeah, and I don't want to talk about it, okay?

You need to get it together for the good of the team. We need you out there.

Yeah, you need me out there because you can't cover your position.

What'd you say? You heard me. It's not me that needs to get it together. It's

you. You don't want to go down this road.

What road would that be? The truthful road because you know I'm right?

Back off. Hey, Martin.

Nick. You should have backed off out there on the field, and you need to back

off now.

I'm not the one with the problem, so you back off. You ever pull anything like

you did today in a real game, and it won't be the mascot who'll be kicking

butt. It'll be me.

Martin, just walk.

What are you, his girlfriend?

This isn't your business, so butt out.

I'm out of here.

Do we have an understanding?

Get out of my way. Or what? Or I'll make you. I don't think so. Hey, guys, come

on, don't do this. The coach is watching.

We're helping.

Hello, boys.

Dinner smells great.

Where were you all day?

Work.

You look rested.

I do?

Yeah. I called you at the office. There was no answer.

And then I paged you, and then I called Lou, and he sounded funny when he told

me you were out.

I was out ministering to the people. That's what I do. I minister.

You were sleeping at the office.

What?

I wasn't sleep... Lou told you? You've got bedhead and your shirt and tie are

all wrinkled.

God, I was... It was just a little cat nap.

That is so unfair.

Well, I couldn't help it. I started writing my sermon and I kept falling

and I thought if I could just lie down, you know, and then before I knew it, it

was time to come home.

Well, so much for us being in this no sleep thing together.

Well, look, I'll...

I'll do the dishes, and you go to bed early, and that way, if you're lucky,

might get a couple hours in before Lucy starts yelling at Kevin again.

Wish me luck, I'm on my way to try and talk some sense into my crazy wife.

Good luck.

He's gonna need it.

You missed a few things while you were napping at the office.

You're right about everything.

I am?

Almost.

I don't know what it feels like to be on bed rest, and I will never know what it

feels like to be pregnant.

But I do know what it feels like to have regrets.

And if you don't finish your paper and graduate like you planned, you'll regret

it. If you don't get your paper finished, there's a chance, no matter

motivated you are, there's still a chance you'll never get around to it and

won't graduate.

You may be able to live with that, but I can't.

I love you too much. I'll get it done.

I'll graduate in June or whenever.

No, not June, not whenever.

Now, just like you planned.

Look at me. I can't. You can, because I'm going to help you. I, Kevin

your husband, I'm going to help you complete your lifelong goal. You swore

getting married and having a baby wouldn't stop you from graduating.

So don't let it, okay?

You worked hard all last summer so you'd be finished with school in December.

The way I see it, you either finish your term paper and get an A or I'll finish

it for you and you pray that I don't ruin your GPA.

Oh, it's late. I was beginning to worry.

I'm going to skip dinner tonight.

Martin. Look, I'm not hungry.

Can we just leave it at that?

Oh, good. You're home.

I need to talk to you.

Alone.

I have guilty knowledge.

About? Martin.

How guilty?

Behold that thought.

Something's wrong with Martin.

Excuse me? You have to do something.

I don't know what you're talking about. He's getting D's on papers. Today the

coach suspended him from the team because his attitude stinks.

Then he gets in the fight in the locker room.

Now he says he's just tired and that it's Lucy, but I don't think so.

And I've tried to talk to him, but he won't tell me what's bothering him.

So you have to do something.

Otherwise he's going to mess this up. Mess what up?

Baseball. It's his life. He loves it.

And if he doesn't go pro, he'll play ball in college, but not if the coach

labels him as a disciplinary case.

No college will touch him.

Okay, I'll talk to him. No, you have to do more than talk.

You have to straighten him out, like his father would do.

I know what's wrong with Martin.

Martin's dad's tour of duty got extended.

Apparently, it's been happening to a lot of soldiers in Iraq.

I accidentally saw an email on Martin's computer screen when I was putting away

laundry for Mom.

Your guilty knowledge?

Yeah.

Oh, wow.

What? Martin told me that his father was coming home early next year. I didn't

know it was going to be that soon, but... No one knew but me. He didn't

anybody to know. He thought that if he talked about it or if people knew, that

it wouldn't happen.

His dad won't be coming home early next year.

Doesn't look that way.

Who isn't going to be home early next year?

Who isn't going to be home early next year?

I know about your father.

Ruthie, how did she... I accidentally saw the email from your father.

How do you accidentally see something on my computer in my room?

Well, I was putting away laundry for Mom, and your computer screen was...

Unbelievable.

I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to see it.

We should probably talk.

Oh. Is that because my former best friend told you that I got suspended

team? Or because he told you about my D in history?

Or do you want to talk about my dad now that the family spy is reported in?

Martin. I can't believe this. You're scolding me. She broke into my room.

Let's go upstairs and talk. Let's not. Why didn't you tell me about your

Apparently in this house, I don't need to tell anybody anything.

I just have to wait for my best friend to rat me out, Ruthie to break into my

room and report on what she's discovered.

I probably shouldn't have come.

No, no, you should have come.

It's going to be okay.

I

don't

want to talk.

What don't you want to talk about?

Getting a... A failing grade on a paper?

Getting suspended from the team? Getting into a fight in the locker room?

Your father's tour getting extended?

You can't help me.

I'd like to try.

How exactly are you going to help me?

Can you bring my father home? No. So you can't help me and we don't need to

talk.

Maybe... Are you here for me or for you?

I think you're here for you.

You want to help.

You need to help, and it's killing you that you can't help me.

I've got news for you.

No one can help me.

There is nothing anyone can say or do that will make me feel better about

my father in Iraq.

Nothing.

I know when my father... Your dad was a Marine, I know, but he was home most of

the time.

And when he wasn't, you still had your mom. I have no one. And you can't

possibly understand what that feels like or what I'm going through or what I go

through on a daily basis.

And so if you don't mind, I'd like to be alone.

I really am sorry for looking at his computer screen.

Martin's more upset about his father than about you looking at his email.

Can't we do anything?

All we can do is be there for him. I haven't really been very supportive.

I haven't even been very friendly.

It'll be okay, Ruthie.

Who's at the door?

Wayne Newton.

Very funny.

No, Wayne Newton, the singer. He's in the foyer waiting to talk to you. Come

You're Wayne Newton.

I am, and you must be Eric.

Or do you prefer I call you Reverend Camden?

Eric is fine.

Thank you. Thank you.

I'm a big fan. We both are.

Well, that's really sweet of you, Annie. Thank you very much. I can't believe

you're here in Glen Oak and in our house.

Well, I am here, and I am Wayne Newton.

Do you want me to sing Donkey Chain for you?

I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh!

I'm not going to sing unless you pay me.

I'm kidding you yet. I'm kidding.

I just got back from the Middle East, and frankly, I'm still a little punchy.

there anything I can do for you, Mr. Newton?

It's Wayne, please.

And it's not what you can do for me, but maybe what I can do for you.

I have a message for Martin Brewer from his father.

So you saw my dad in Iraq?

Just got back.

Why were you there?

Vacation.

Oh, no.

I am the chairman of the Celebrity Circle of the USO, and that's a program

oversees all celebrities, dancers, singers, comedians, actors, and we

travel to bases all over the world entertaining our brave men and women in

armed forces.

What made you want to be part of the USO?

Well, when I was not much older than you are, Martin, I wanted to be a soldier.

And I had bad asthma, and so they couldn't take me.

I went back to Lake Tahoe where I was appearing and walked out on stage, and

showroom was filled with Marines.

And I thought to myself, I can do this. I can entertain our troops.

And so a couple of years later, I found myself in Vietnam.

I've been going ever since with the USO whenever duty calls.

How's my dad?

Well, your dad's tired and he wants to come home and he misses you.

I miss him too.

You know, I talked to him right after he emailed you explaining that his tour of

duty had been extended and a lot of the men and women in his unit had to send

the same kind of emails to their families.

I was also there when...

He received your email in return.

I feel badly about that email.

Look, you were angry, and that's understandable and acceptable.

It's just so hard.

You tell yourself you can wait until a certain day, and then it's, sorry, too

bad, he's not coming home after all.

I just, I lost it.

Well, your dad told me that you can take anything that the enemy dishes out.

But he just can't stand the thought of you being in pain or unhappy.

And he's torn between his duty as a parent and his duty to his country.

That's not good.

He shouldn't be thinking about me.

He shouldn't be thinking about anything except staying alive.

Well, I wish I were delivering your dad to you.

But this is the best that I could do.

And I want you to know I'm glad I got a chance to meet you, Martin.

And I'm really happy I got a chance to meet your dad.

You should be really proud of him and I know he's proud of you.

And I know you think no one understands what you're going through right now and

nobody understands the kind of sacrifices you're making, but you're

you're not alone.

There are over 100 ,000 troops over there and all of them had to leave their

families.

When it's right, this is a lady that runs a local support group for

families who have relatives that are fighting in the Middle East.

She's a friend of mine.

Give her a call.

War is really hard on the soldiers, but it's equally as hard on the family left

behind. And people don't realize that of all the soldiers over there fighting,

that there are relatives back here that are waiting and wondering and worrying.

Thanks for coming.

Happy to do all I can do.

I didn't realize you did this, visited families of soldiers serving overseas.

Well, I found that it helps people to be with someone who's just seen their son

or daughter or wife or husband or mother or father, and that's the least I can

do for them, considering all they've done for us.

Is there anything I can get you, something to eat or drink?

That is really sweet, thank you, but I have a couple of stops I have to make

tonight yet, and if you don't mind, I'd like to take a rain check.

Good night.

Come in.

Did I just see Wayne Newton come out of your room?

Yeah. I'm not even going to ask.

He talked to my dad and brought a message back for me. What was the

Hang in there.

I really am sorry for looking at your computer.

I'm sorry too.

I have been a jerk lately.

So, I'm sorry, and you're sorry.

Does that mean we're okay?

Yeah. We're okay, Ruthie.

Where are you going?

I just sent an apology email to my dad, and I apologize to you.

I just have a few more, and then I'll be finished.

I have to go to the promenade if that's okay.

And I'm sorry about earlier.

What I said, I was wrong.

You can help. You do help. All of you help.

You guys have been so great to me. And every time I think about how much I miss

my dad, I just think about how much more I'd miss him if it wasn't for the

Camden's.

I'm really lucky to have all you guys in my life.

We feel lucky to have you in our life, too.

Well, Lucy's final term paper.

All she needs are a couple things from the library, a few references, and she's

finished.

And better yet, she's asleep.

Thanks for meeting me.

I'm sorry about practice and about the fight in the locker room and about my

attitude. What about the mascot? Are you sorry about the mascot?

Yeah, I'm sorry about the mascot, too.

Martin, I know I'm just your coach, but I hope in the future, if you have a

problem, you'll discuss it with me.

I'm here for you, for all my guys.

And I know I can't bring your father home from Iraq, but sometimes it helps.

just to have a friend to talk to about what's bothering you.

Because if you don't let off steam in a healthy way, emotions tend to build up.

And, well, before you know it, you end up... Yelling at a guy in a cat costume?

Yeah, exactly.

So... So, I guess I'll see you at practice tomorrow.

And I plan on apologizing to Nick, just so you know.

Good night. Good night, Coach. Hey, Coach.

Yeah? How'd you know about my dad?

Why don't you ask him?

I called the coach and told him about your father. I'm sorry. I thought he

should know.

He told me he was going to meet you here and suggested that I come.

He thought you might need a friend.

Even a former best friend.

I was not ratting you out.

Are we still friends?

Yeah.

Cool.

You want to go shoot a game of pool?

There's a cute new waitress.

How cute.

If you don't want her, I'll take a shot.

Actually, I already did.

And? She winked at me. She probably has something in her eye.

No.

You think?

I'll go with you, but I'll find my own girlfriend.

Come on, tell me where you're taking me. I wanted to get you something special

for graduation.

What'd you get me?

Graduation.

I know you wanted to go to your graduation ceremony, so I talked to the

Actually, your father talked to the dean, and he talked to some other

and they all agreed to be here with you.

It's a rehearsal for them, but for you, this is the real thing.

An official graduation.

No.

Yes.

I love you.

You should.

So, what do you say? Are you ready to graduate?

Absolutely.

Kellyanne James.

Congratulations.

Henry Michael Johnson.

Congratulations.

Lucy Camden Kinkirk.

Congratulations, Kinkirk.

Thank you, Dean Ryan.

I did it.
