I just figured,
with Dr. Sturgis not around,

it might be nice if I could be.

alone your first day.

Yes, you are.

For someone going into college,
203
00:08:02,394 --> 00:08:04,353
you are acting very childish.
204
00:08:04,396 --> 00:08:05,833
Maybe it just appears that way
205
00:08:05,876 --> 00:08:07,574
because you see me
with my mommy.

you'll hear our little one
