Dad, this is my new writing partner,
Holly. Hi, nice to meet you, Mr.

I'll learn to love again, maybe with
you.

Why isn't Tommy helping you? Where is
he? Where he always is.

With Holly.

Maybe with you.

Are you sure?

The two of us in San Francisco, it'll be
great.

I just want you to listen. I'm still
going to San Francisco, and you're not

going to stop me.

There's a magic in the early morning we
found,

when the sunrise smiles on everything

around.

It's a portrait of the happiness that we
feel and

always will.

Oh, it is enough to fill our...

our days like bright and shiny new dawn

if we're ever puzzled by the

changing time there's a plate of
homemade

wishes on the kitchen window sill

and it is enough to fill our

See ya. Later.

Yeah, catch you guys later. Take it
easy.

There's nothing wrong with my lyrics.

There's something definitely wrong with
a moon in June beams a sweet love's

tune. That's a matter of opinion.

It's old -fashioned, and you know it. So
what's wrong with that? People want old

-fashioned. Some people want old
-fashioned. All right, some people.

you know where those people are,
Bradford? They're in rest homes.

It's tough to get bookings in rest
homes.

I'll work on the line. Will that make
you happy? It'll make me happy if you'll

see this girl I told you about.

She's good, and she needs the work.

You really think my stuff's that bad?

Hey, don't take it so hard.

We all have our strengths and
weaknesses.

You're a good guitar player, and you
write great music.

Really? And your lyrics stink.

Thanks.

It's great, huh? I like it. All right.
Well, and the kitchen's going to be

with cabinets here and here.

Then what's this teeny little pipe here?

Well, that's either a bedroom or a
bathroom, depending.

Depending on what?

On what you want this other teeny little
place to be.

I said I could convert the garage into
an apartment. I didn't say it would be a

luxury apartment.

So what are the damages?

About $9 ,000.

Oh, boy. Oh, that's crazy.

Hey, look, Dad, Sandy and I will be fine
upstairs.

No, no, that's all right, Susan. We'll
find a way. I'd feel guilty about

spending that much money. Nonsense. I've
been planning to do this for years.

Don't do this to her, Mr. Bradford.
Guilt could be a heavy burden.

Let her stay upstairs. I'll move down.

That's a nice gesture, Jeremy.

No sweat. I handle guilt very well.

Jeremy, just stay where you are, up in
the room with Nicholas and Tommy,

Dad, the problem is labor. I can get the
materials wholesale.

You know, there must be a law against
three people sharing one room. It's

unsanitary.

You know what I think?

I think we should all do the work
ourselves.

Ah, that's silly, Nicholas.

That many people in one room could be
emotionally unhealthy, too.

You know, I think Nicholas has something
there. It's not that difficult, and I

can supervise. All right, I'm willing to
give it a try.

Well, then I'll get the materials
tomorrow, and we'll start this weekend.

It creates tension.

Nicholas, since it was your idea, I'm
going to make you the labor contractor.

You're going to hire all the workmen,
make sure that they do their jobs.

You mean I'm the boss?

That's right.

All right.

And you know what tension can lead to,
don't you?

Jeremy. It can lead to... Shut up!

Hostility.

Hi. Hi. Come on in.

Let's see you hauling. Yes.

Parents got a little carried away with
the Christmas thing.

It's a very nice place you've got here.

Oh, thanks.

We're about to lose it, too. Really?
Why?

Yeah, my sister's moving in.

Oh, she have a band?

No, she has a baby and a husband that's
playing for the New York Mets. Oh.

Do you play?

Nah, not good enough for the Mets.

I meant guitar.

Yeah, I play.

Well?

Yeah.

Listen, are you always this charming, or
are you just trying to make a good

first impression?

Oh, well, look, I didn't mean to be rude
or... No, it's all right. Don't worry

about it.

Ernie said you needed a lyricist, and
that's what I am.

Uh, here's a couple of samples of my
work right here. My phone number's right

the bottom of the page there.

So, look, if you're interested, just
give me a call, all right?

Okay. You do read music, don't you?

Yeah, I read.

Well?

interrupting something?

Uh, no, no. I was just writing my
column. Oh, good. I'm glad it was

important.

So, what's on your mind, kiddo?

Jeremy. Oh.

He's been getting better and you know
it. Oh, yeah, sure. This week he only

me to go can it three times instead of
his usual five. What about it?

I think we should enroll him in school.

But you said... I know what I said. That
it wasn't healthy to enroll him in one

school when we knew we'd have to enroll
him in another school just a short time

later when we found a home for him.
Couldn't have said that better if I said

myself. Well, the trouble is that a
short time later is rapidly becoming a

time ago.

It seems like an eternity to me.

Tom, he hasn't been that bad.

You said yourself you were growing quite
fond of him. Well, actually, he reminds

me of my childhood.

All those mornings I spent in the movies
watching the Dead End kids.

I'm sorry. I was just kidding.

I really am growing fond of him.

Well, I think that you're growing on
him, too.

Lately, when he brings up your name, he
no longer refers to you as the

Ayatollah.

That's progress, Abby.

Real progress.

Tommy, I thought you said it would be a
waste of time.

Well, I thought it would, but I listened
to her stuff and it was good.

Really good.

So is she going to be your writing
partner? Yeah, we start tomorrow.

Tommy, I think that's terrific.

You know, some of the best musicians
have been women. That's right.

Here it comes.

Carole King.

Joni Mitchell. Kylie Simon.

Jeanette MacDonald.

Who?

I can't take any more.

Jeremy, your dinner. This isn't dinner.
It's an ERA rally with refreshments. Sit

down, Jeremy.

Can we change the subject?

Sure. The new topic of conversation will
be school.

Specifically, which school Jeremy will
enroll in tomorrow.

You see, Abby, I told you he'd get
excited.

Wait, why do I have to go to school?

Well, there are many reasons, Jeremy,
but basically it's so you won't grow up

be stupid.

Yeah, but the semester already started.

They'll take you. We have a lot of pull.

Yeah, but Abby said that... Well,
Jeremy, I know what I said, but I

mind.

You know, it's very difficult to find a
topic of conversation that will interest

that boy.

I'll learn to love again.

Well, we've got a real solid beginning
anyway.

Either that or a top ten disco tune, one
or the other.

Really?

Let's see.

I'll learn to love again. Wait a minute.
Hold it.

Wait. Hold it.

Well?

Well what?

Well, come on. What do you think?

Well, I suppose I've got to be totally
honest, right?

Absolutely, yeah.

I think we're talking Grammy time.

You really mean it?

No, but I believe in positive
reinforcements. Oh, cut it out.

No, I like it. Really. It's good.

Really good. I like it. Let's keep
going. All right, hot shot. Don't get

away. We're only up to the third line
here. Okay.

I'll learn to love again.

Maybe with you.

Yeah, I'll learn to love again.

Maybe with you.

Ann, how old were you on your last
birthday?

47.

That's pretty old to be a freshman in
high school, isn't it? I'm a slow

Don't you cool it. He's 15.

Yeah, a very mature 15.

I can see that.

Bobby? Oh, Ann. Hi.

Good to see you. How are you doing?

Bobby was my practice teacher.

Gentlemen, this is Anne Cavallucci. Hi.

Oh, don't tell me this is another
Bradford. Well, he's an honorary one.

probably be seeing her a lot. She's a
teacher here. In fact, she's your

teacher. That's wonderful. Oh, I know
we're going to have a fine time.

I wouldn't bet on it.

There's something about this girl that's
so different.

I can't believe I'm going to school. I
can't believe it.

Would Nancy be better for sawing or
painting?

You know what I think.

Sawing, right?

I think she likes me. I really do.

You know all the good electives are
going to be filled up. I mean, you

what I'm probably going to be stuck
with, don't you?

Painting. I wish.

Woodshop. Woodshop.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

Sawing. She is a little bit older, but
who cares?

It's the 20th century, right?

What about Mary?

That's right.

Mary even went out with a married man
for a while.

Woodshop.

Maybe Dad's got some ideas. I gotta go
talk to Abby one more time. Go give her

call.

You see what I mean about three people
sharing one room? You can't even hear

yourself. Thanks.

Come on in, but you've got to be quiet.

How's it going?

Oh, you don't have to whisper. He's in
the bedroom.

He's in the bedroom?

Well, look, maybe I ought to come back
some other... No, it's okay, because

asleep. Don't worry about it.

But... Look, if it wasn't okay, I
wouldn't have invited you over. Now,

Sit down.

Just sit down.

Make yourself at home.

So... Look, maybe I better come back
some other time. Tommy, what's the

with you?

Holly, there's someone in the bedroom.

You mean you didn't know about Aaron?

Obviously not.

All right, come here. Come with me. Oh,
no. Come on, Tommy. No. Come on.

Holly, look, I really don't... Come
here.

This is Aaron.

Aaron's my son.

Oh.

Okay, you guys. It's time to sign up for
apartment building duty.

Where are y 'all going?

Hey, Jeremy, where are you going?

My first day of school. I gotta be there
on time.

Since when do you... care about school.
It came on all of a sudden. I'll see you

later. Elizabeth, dance class. All day?

Yeah, I need a lot of work. So does the
garage.

Well, I know none of you guys have to go
to work today.

Oh, Nicholas, that's where you're wrong.
You see, musicians are always trying to

find new forms, new ways to blend the
same old notes into more beautiful and

newer music.

You do that on your head? You got it.
Good. Then you can use your hands to

load the lumber.

Hey, Nancy, you've got painting.

Why do I have painting?

Because you've got most of the
experience.

You're always painting your nails and
your toenails and your eyes. I've got

point.

And, Joanie, you've got clean -up.

That's not funny. Hey, why clean -up?
Why do I have clean -up? Because I'm the

boss, and I make sure you guys do your
jobs. And you have to do what I tell you

to do.

Why should I?

Because remember the time when you were
in that play and no one... I wanted to

go, and you said that if I came that...
Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Okay, Nicholas. Yeah, because it
was all in pig Latin, remember? Okay,

Nicholas. Oh, remember that time that
when you were gonna... Okay, boss.

I'll do cleanup.

Good.

It's tough.

Yes, you're good.

Oh, and Joni, you can still call me
Nicholas.

For now.

It didn't look so bad.

Compared to what, San Quentin?

Jeremy, you're here. You might as well
make the best of it.

Right. Look, a new school is always a
little scary at first.

The scariest I can handle is being
miserable I have problems with.

You're going to make friends.

You have a lot of new interests.

You're going to work on your grades.

Let me get this over before you have me
on the honor roll.

Hey.

Have fun.

Dad, this is my new writing partner,
Holly.

Mr. Bradford, nice to meet you.

And this is Aaron. Hi.

Oh, what a nice little boy.

Is that your brother?

No, it's my son.

Oh. Well, the three of us have a lot of
work to do. We better get going. Yeah,

okay. Well, see you later, Mr. Bradford.

Bye. Gosh, it's good to see you. You
too, squirt.

Well? I guess we're done.

No, no, no, no.

It's not right.

What do you mean? What's not right about
it?

It's not right.

I guess that's what you're here for. No,
come on. We can make this work here.

Uh, from here we got flower needs rain,
heartache and pain.

I guess it is bad.

Excuse me.

Oh, I'm sorry. I guess I shouldn't have
brought him. It's just that I haven't

had the cash to put him in a daycare
center.

You okay?

Yeah. Yeah?

Doesn't your ex -husband ever take care
of him?

That'd be pretty tough.

Why? I don't have an ex -husband.

I've never been married.

Does that bother you?

Well, I just assumed.

Don't get me wrong about this.

I love Aaron more than anything else in
this world.

He's the most important thing in my
life.

I never regretted having him. Not for a
second.

But you didn't get married.

I didn't fall in love.

Is that hard for you to understand?

Well, it might take a little while.

Not too long a while, I hope.

I'm a fast learner.

Good.

Buddy, say we're back to work, okay?

Hi.

You got to use the bathroom?

Not really.

Good brand, you... smoke. We got all
kind.

Hey, show them the store, Gil.

Oh, it really doesn't make any sense.

Yeah, have one of mine.

So, uh, you're new here, huh?

Yeah.

All right.

My name's Albert.

Jeremy.

Hey, listen, Jeremy, things are gonna be
all right once you get the system

figured out.

System? Yeah, hall passes, sickness
notes signed by real mothers.

I got them all.

Oh, that system.

Hey, I got excuses with everything from
measles to arthritis.

Arthritis? For some of our older
students.

Of course, of course.

Let me ask you a question.

Do you like school?

No way.

I can fix it so you almost never have to
go.

What do you think?

I think I feel a case of that arthritis
coming on. Arthritis coming on, yeah.

It's all right.

Is it possible to forget how

to love?

I think I have don't know what to

do.

Anyone I know? Huh?

The person that you're imagining the
dartboard to be.

Whoever it is has a pretty bad
complexion.

How was school?

Oh, great. They elected me class
president. Oh, the first day's always

worst.

You make friends.

Listen, I remember being real lonely for
a long time when I switched schools.

I made a friend.

You did?

That's good.

So why don't you have him over?

Oh, Abby, I don't think so. No, Jeremy,
you can have him over for dinner.

Abby. Jeremy. Really, we'd all enjoy it.
He'd enjoy it. It'd be a real

interesting evening for all of us.

I'm sure of that.

So you're having more of it?

Yeah, why not?

Okay, that's good.

Tom will be real surprised.

He'll be surprised, all right.

Here's to you. Oh, thank you.

You realize that this is embarrassing.

Come on, they asked me for my ID, too.

Yeah, but they didn't ask you if you
wanted a booster chair.

Look, if it's any consolation to you,
you seem 21 to me.

Oh, gosh, thanks.

Now if I only seem 21 to them. Oh, come
on.

Holly, what are you going to tell me
about him?

Who? Aaron's father.

Oh, Tommy, I already told you.

You told me he didn't have a legal
father. Now, I took biology in high

and I happen to know it takes a mother
and a father. Okay, okay.

But there really is not that much to
tell.

We were both kids. We were 18.

Like you.

I wanted to have a baby, but I didn't
want a husband.

Oh, I know. Maybe it was just Aaron's
father I didn't want for a husband.

Two children at the same time was so
much more than I could have taken.

Yeah,

well, Holly... Tommy, I told you I have
a habit of doing exactly what I want to

do. Right.

Well, what I would like to do now is
have a wonderful dinner with a very nice

person.

Well, I feel like doing something, too.

You know, I think you're quite a lady.

Do you know that's eight compliments
tonight?

Well, you should hear me when I really
like someone.

I think you're wonderful.

That's nine.

And very beautiful.

Ten.

right up here. I know, Nicholas. I know.

Ernie, you guys were supposed to have
all this junk out of here yesterday.

Sorry, Nicholas. We're under man.

Yeah, but you're messing up my schedule.
Nicholas, according to your schedule,

shouldn't you be leaving for school
right now?

No, the schedule says... Look again.

Nicholas!

Oh, yeah, it says right here, leave for
school.

I'll be back at 3 .30 if you need any
help.

Well, Ernie, I'm sorry to usurp your
rehearsal hall like this. No, that's all

right, Mr. Bradford.

Why isn't Tommy helping you?

We're lucky to get him to practice these
days, much less undertake such a thing

as physical labor.

Where is he?

Where else? Where he always is.

With Holly.

He and Holly are working a lot together,
huh? As much as they work together,

they should be composing an entire
album.

Well, I just hope that Tommy knows what
he's getting himself into.

Well, if you feel that strongly about
it, you should tell him.

No, he'll think I'm meddling again.

Well, then make sure he understands that
you don't disapprove. Just talk to him

as one adult to another. I don't
disapprove. I just don't want him to

blindly. Then tell him that.

I will.

Uh, you want me to have dinner at your
house? That's what I said.

Far out.

Because Abby wants me to. She asked me
just yesterday to bring you over to

dinner.

She wants me to come over to your house?

Sure. The Bradfords are dying to meet
you.

Hey, that's great.

I'll show up. What time should I come?

Seven.

Seven, right.

Oh, and Albert, come as you are. Don't
get dressed up or nothing. The Bradfords

are real down -to -earth people, you
know?

It sounds like a family I can really get
into. Oh, yeah.

Hey, this is going to be fun.

One thing's for sure.

It'll be exciting.

Yes, we will take care of her right
away.

Thank you very much for calling.

Goodbye.

Abby, do you remember when I told you
that I was beginning to grow fond of

Jeremy? Yeah.

I lied.

Why? That was Ann Cavallucci. No, what
happened? He disappeared from his home

room yesterday and hasn't been back to
class since.

Just when I was beginning to trust him.

Now, Tom, it's been a long time since
he's done anything like this. Maybe he

needed the exercise. We haven't fought
for a week. Tom, that's it, see?

Jeremy doesn't know how to get positive
attention, so settle for negative

attention. He'll do anything just to be
noticed.

Oh, well, then it worked. Because I'm
going to give him so much negative

attention, he'll hibernate for the
winter. He'll just be playing right into

hands. You'll just be encouraging him to
continue.

Oh, well, then what do we do to
discourage him from continuing?

Ignore him.

If we're unshockable, if we can't be
shocked by his behavior, it's just going

take all the fun out of the game.

I don't know about that.

Trust me, Tom. It's psychology.

Oh, uh, Jeremy.

How was school today?

Oh, great, Mr. Bradford. Just great.

Jeremy, don't eat right now, okay? We're
about to have dinner.

That reminds me. Albert's coming for
dinner.

Good. When? What day?

In an hour.

In an hour.

Bye, Colin.

Hi, Tommy.

You're not going to be home for dinner
tonight?

No, I'm afraid not. I'm having dinner at
Holly's.

Oh.

Listen, there's something I think I
should say.

You're not going to want to hear this,
but I have to tell you.

You don't mean I have dandruff, do you?

I'm worried about you and Holly.

Yeah, well, don't be, okay? I don't
think you realize what you're getting

yourself into. I gotta go, Dad. Now,
wait a minute now.

Just give me a second. I know what I'm
doing.

I know, but I... Look, I really gotta
go.

How are you?

I'm just fine.

Why don't you just sit down and make
yourself comfortable? I have to finish

fixing dinner anyway. Okay.

Hi, Tommy.

Hi, Aaron. How you doing?

Could I play with your guitar?

Sure. You just got to promise to be real
careful, okay?

Okay.

Here you go.

Now, you remember how I showed you how
to hold this?

Oh, yeah? What's that?

There's this group forming in San
Francisco, and they've got some record

backing, and they want me to write
lyrics for them.

Does that mean you'd have to move there?

Well, yeah, sure. They don't have a lot
of money, but they said they could find

me an apartment and pay my rent. Isn't
that exciting?

Yeah, it sounds exciting.

Aaron, don't do that.

Well, I hope he didn't forget he's a
half hour late. Albert doesn't forget.

That's good.

Oh, that's him.

Oh, boy. You're as nervous as the mother
of the bride. I just want this to go

really well. Oh, relax, Abby.
Everything's perfect. What could

wrong?

Everybody, it's my friend Albert.

Hiya. Sorry I'm late. My bike broke.

Mr. Bradford?

It's really nice you'd invite me.

I mean, people don't usually invite me
places.

Oh, imagine that.

Would you like to sit down?

Thanks.

Nice couch.

Jeremy, your friend arrived.

Yes, sir.

Albert. Hi.

I'm Susan, and this is Sandra.

I love babies.

They're kind of like midgets, you know,
except smaller.

Gucci, Gucci, Gucci, Gucci, Gucci,
Gucci, Gucci.

Well,

dinner's almost ready.

Would you like to wash up or anything?

I have to check the dessert.

Albert, we're having quiche. Do you like
quiche?

Oh, no sweat.

Yeah, I can eat anything.

Good, good.

Want some potatoes?

Yeah, let's see.

I'm shockable.

Albert, do you like quiche?

Yeah, kind of tastes like spinach and
cheese and stuff.

It is.

Why do they call it quiche?

It's me.

I always wonder why they do funny stuff
like that.

Don't you, Mr. Bradford?

I do, I do.

And you guys got bikes?

I do.

Really? How many cc's?

Three speed.

Nicholas, when Albert says bike, he
means it. Bike?

Yeah, I got a great bike.

750 cc's.

Is that how it sounds?

No, that's how it looks.

Hey,

I found these in the kitchen. Does
anybody want potatoes?

No, thanks.

I don't mind if I do.

Every so often.

Anything to let me know you're still
alive.

It's getting pretty late. I better get
going.

Tommy, what is wrong?

You know, that's the amazing thing. You
don't even know what's wrong.

But I don't understand. What do you
think you're doing?

Hey, he undid a string.

What's with you? There's nothing with
me. I just don't like people messing

my stuff.

And I don't like people yelling at my
son.

Good night, then.

And have a nice life in San Francisco.

because I'm going to San Francisco.

Congratulations. You finally figured it
out.

You're supposed to be nailing in the
garage.

I tried to, Nicholas, but the wood is
taller than the garage, so I thought I'd

cut it.

I guess that's okay.

Well, I got permission from David.

Good.

I'm working, I'm working.

Hey, Tiger.

Hi. What you doing?

Nothing. Want to play with me?

Sure. What do you want to play?

Poker. Poker?

What's that?

No, that's not poker. That's pokium.

Aaron, I'm really sorry I yelled at you
yesterday.

I'm sorry I wrecked your guitar.

You didn't wreck my guitar.

I was just really upset, that's all.

Hiya, Tiger.

Hiya.

Listen, I was really an idiot the way I
talked about San Francisco.

I was so offhandedly.

I was very insensitive to you, Tommy,
and I'm sorry.

Holly, I don't want you to leave.

No, Tommy, I don't want to leave either,
but what am I going to do?

Stay.

This could be a really important break
for me.

Yeah, I know. You're right.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I could go with you.

Oh, Tommy. No, no, no. I'm serious.

That is, if you want me to.

Well, of course I want you to, but I...
Then it's settled.

The two of us in San Francisco. It'll be
great.

It would be fun.

Are you sure?

I am more than sure.

I'm positive.

You thought this all through?

Dad, I'm not going to change my mind.

Well, then I want to wish you the best.

Do you mean that?

It's difficult, but I'll adjust.

Dad, I think you're growing up.

Thanks. Hey, Dad, Holly and I have it
all planned.

She'll be making money writing lyrics
for that other group, and that should

us until I find a band to play in.

Sounds very organized.

We are.

I know it's a big move, but we've worked
it all out.

I'm sure everything's going to be just
fine.

Sure.

Just remember that you have a family
back in Sacramento.

that loves you very much.

Thanks, Dad.

Abby, I actually didn't come here to
talk about Jeremy.

I came here to apologize to him.

Apologize to him for what?

Is he here?

I think you'll understand when I talk to
him.

Yeah. Okay.

Oh, don't tell me. It's Jeremy.

Yes.

I'm so sorry.

Hello, Miss Cavallucci.

Jeremy, I just wanted you and the
Bradfords to know how sorry I am that

acted the way I have. I feel terrible.
Listen, that's okay.

No, it's not okay.

Not at all.

I didn't understand.

If I had only known about the illness.

Like I said, these things happen. What
illness?

You know the illness, the illness.

I would have been so much more
understanding if I had just known about

operation. What operation?

The operation for the illness.

You're so brave, Jeremy.

And you never even mentioned it.

All those weeks you'll have to spend in
the hospital.

Oh, yes, he is such a brave lad.

There's no one quite like him. Oh, I'll
vouch for that.

Jeremy, don't you think you should go to
your room? A boy in your state, you

shouldn't be out here in this draft.

But now... All right, let me guess. This
is a letter explaining why

he was absent from school for the last
week. No, it's a letter explaining why

he'll be absent for the next three
weeks.

And, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to
have a talk. No, I'll talk to him. Oh,

but what about psychology?

I'm too shocked to think about
psychology.

I have had it with you. This is it. You
are grounded. Do you understand me?

You're not going to go anywhere except
to school and back.

You're going to attend all of your
classes. You're not going to have any

over here, most especially Albert.

You're not going to watch TV. You're not
going to get any allowance for a month.

I want to see all of your homework, and
you better get this room cleaned up.

Jeremy, being a member of this family
means being responsible, so you just

better shape up.

You just missed Tommy. He went over to
Ernie's house a few minutes ago.

Oh. Well, I thought he might need this.
He left it at my house.

Well, Ernie's is just a couple of blocks
from here if you want to run it over.

No, I don't think so. You know, when the
old gang gets together for the last

time, it's usually best if it's just the
old gang.

You're probably right.

Besides, with the shape my car's in, I
don't want to drive it any more than I

have to before I start for San
Francisco.

Well, do you think it'll make it?

Well, you notice I said start for San
Francisco.

You're not thrilled about this whole
thing, are you?

Why do you say that?

Well, Tommy said you were kind of
concerned.

Look, I hope that you and Tommy have a
wonderful time in San Francisco.

And I hope it keeps being wonderful for
a long, long time.

But you don't think that's going to
happen, do you?

I didn't say that.

Yeah, but you are concerned.

Look, you know, Tommy is only 18 years
old. Of course I'm concerned.

In many ways, he's an adult.

I just hope he's enough of one to be
responsible for someone other than

I've never asked him to be responsible
for Aaron and me.

You didn't have to.

It's all part of sharing your life with
someone you love. That's what it's all

about. Mr.

Bradford, Tommy knows what he wants.

And he wants to go to San Francisco.

Do you know what going there with you
means?

Has Tommy thought about what being a
father to Aaron means?

Has he even thought about Aaron at all?

Have you?

Say goodbye to all your friends?

Well, I think I might have forgotten my
grade school principal, but I think I

covered everyone else.

Got a message?

Not enough.

Besides that, most of them said that
they'd visit us in San Francisco, and I

thought once you and I got a part... And
Aaron.

Yeah, and Aaron.

Anyway, I figure once we get a place of
our own, they can come visit us, and

we'll show them the town.

Yeah, but what'll Aaron be doing while
we're showing them the town?

We'll get him a babysitter.

Oh, he'll enjoy that.

Is there something wrong?

No. No, no. It's just Aaron's got a
little cold and I'm worried about

with him tomorrow.

Oh. I figure we can make a day out of
the trip to the city. Aaron will love

If he's not sick.

Yeah. It'll be great.

wrote that she talked to you. Now, what
did you say? What could you have said to

just make her leave like that? Tommy, I
just... You can't leave me alone, can

you? You got to ruin everything for me.
I just told her what I thought.

Why? Why did you have to do that?
Because she asked me. Well, it was a

Dad, but it won't work. I'm still going
to San Francisco, and you're not going

to stop me. I don't want to stop you. I
just want you to listen.

Well, like Holly did?

No chance. Not even you could be that
convincing.

Holly, I know what happened, and it's
all right. I'm just glad you're back.

Listen, Tommy, we... Let's just get out
of town, okay?

No.

It's not that simple anymore.

Of course it's simple. We can go to San
Francisco just like we planned, just the

two of us. It'll be great. Aren't you
forgetting something?

What?

Aaron.

I didn't forget about Aaron.

No, but I did, Tommy.

Holly, I don't think that... Listen, I
wanted you to come to San Francisco for

me. You're not ready to be a father yet.

It wasn't fair of me to make you one.

I don't mind.

Listen,

I don't mind isn't going to win any
Father of the Year award, Tommy.

I owe Aaron more than that.

Holly... Listen, all my life I have done
exactly what I want to do.

And I'm just not going to be that
selfish this time. Not to Aaron and not

either.

Then why'd you come back?

Well, to explain.

And to tell you that I love you.

I'll learn to love again. Maybe with
you.

I'll learn...

It's worthwhile.

leave this place. It's really great.

Yeah, the family's been working so hard.
It's incredible.

Uh, Nicholas, I'm on the phone!

What?

Privacy? Oh, well, yeah, sure, honey.
We're gonna get lots of privacy.

How? Well, locking the door works great.

Susan!

Go away!

No, no, no, no, no, not you. I'm just
trying to establish my rights to privacy

here. I mean, I'm not gonna let anybody
come over just whenever they want to.

Susan!

and that is why I moved out of the
house, so that you, Sandra, Sue, and I

be together alone when you get back.

And if I let everybody just come in here
whenever they want to, we're not going

to get any peace and quiet.

Sue, Dad!

Oh, well, yeah, the house is put
together great.

The family did a great job. It's really,
really built well.

Honey, I have a feeling that locking the
door isn't going to be enough.
