Previously on Seventh Heaven...

This is my friend Renee.

Are you two gonna have a baby?

No... I'm gonna

have a baby, but Matt's not the father.

Is Grandma gonna die?

She's been diagnosed with a form of leukemia

that's very hard to treat at this advanced stage.

She's passed on, Annie.

She's gone.

Hey. How are they doing?

Fine. The boy...

Simon. Simon...

He snores.

You all right? Yeah. Thanks.

Very nice service, Reverend.

Thanks, Reverend.

I'm gonna miss her.

I really loved your mom.

Oh, she loved you, too.

I'm glad you decided to bury her here,

'cause it's nice to have her close to the family.

How's your father holding up?

Oh... all right, I think.

He... he never talks about his emotions very much, you know.

How about you? How are you doing?

I'm fine. I've got my family and my friends all around me.

I'm just sorry we have to run off to a youth retreat.

Oh, that's all right.

You'll be in our prayers, though.

Oh, thank you so much.

Thanks for coming, you two, I appreciate it.

Now, stay strong.

See you. Thanks.

The munchkins are still conked.

Oh, good. Poor things, they're exhausted.

So am I. Me, too.

I feel like I could sleep for a week.

It's been a rough time for all of us.

Don't worry.

You're gonna be okay.

Wouldn't this work better

if I were consoling you? You're the minister.

I don't think we could have asked for a more perfect day.

The music, the flowers were perfect...

I think Mom would've approved, don't you, Dad?

All in all, I think she would have preferred

to be sitting with the rest of us.

Somebody order a cab?

That would be for me.

I guess this is good-bye.

Daddy, what is going on?

Well, I-I thought I'd head back to Phoenix.

I've got a million things

to do at the office, and...

and the fish have to be fed,

plus, uh, it's not like

there's anything else for me to do here.

But, Daddy, wait, I-I thought you'd stay

at least a couple of days with us... I mean,

what's the rush? Now, don't try

to talk me out of it, Annie Mame.

My mind is made up; it's time to move on.

Well, but... well, at least let us drive you to the airport.

That's not necessary, sweetie.

I'll be fine.

Bye-bye. Good-bye, kids!

I'll be in touch.

Let's go.

Oh, no, the casserole patrol.

Wake up, sleepyhead, we're home.

Hope you guys like lime Jell-O.

What?

Hey, where's Grandpa?

Well, I'm-I'm sorry, Simon, but...

he's gone.

Wow, him, too?

No. To Phoenix, Simon.

He-he went back to Phoenix.

Oh.

Oh...

I thought... I thought you guys meant...

Come on, Simon.

I can't believe Daddy.

Well... he's not himself.

Yes, he is, unfortunately.

He's exactly himself.

Hi. How are you, Sarah?

Hi, Walter. How are you?

Thank you for coming. Thanks for coming.

Hi. How you doing?

So good to see you. Thank you.

I expect you two to pitch in

with the food and the guests, okay?

Your mom really needs

your help today. BOTH: Okay.

Thanks.

Hey, Dad,

why is everyone bringing food?

Well, it's kind of a tradition when someone dies.

When it feels as if there's nothing

you can say or do,

bringing food is a way of showing that you care.

Oh.

Boy, Grandpa missed the good part.

Oh, hi, Mrs. Morgan.

Where's your father?

Uh... He's all right, isn't he?

Yes. He just had to, um...

Oh, don't worry, he isn't dead.

He just had to go back to Phoenix. Thanks.

How's the mother-to-be? Fine.

So, uh, where's Lou, home practicing his diapering technique?

Yeah, you laugh, but I'm glad

your mom recommended those classes.

You would not believe

how much stuff you're supposed to know.

Oh, yeah, with four little brothers and sisters,

I could probably teach a class myself.

Keep hanging around here,

you get plenty of on-the-job training.

Great.

So, uh, where is the dad-to-be?

Uh, he and my dad went to a comic book convention.

Thank you for singing at the service... it was beautiful.

Oh, it was the least I could do,

with all this family's done for me.

I wish you'd got to know my mom... she was so special.

I liked what you said about her in the eulogy,

about all the things that you'd learned from her.

Yeah. She was an incredible role model.

Yeah. The only thing I learned from my mom was how to leave.

There you go, Suzie Q, cream and sugar.

Aw... thank-ums, Stevie.

You're welkies. Mmm...

Well, I-I guess I don't have to ask

how you two enjoy married life.

What's it been, six months since the wedding?

Seven. And a half.

Well, you both look like a couple of newlyweds to me.

I guess I tied a pretty good knot.

Oh, you sure did. It's gonna last a lifetime.

You betcha it is. Of course, it doesn't hurt

that I got the best wife in the world.

Oh...

Stevie.

See you later.

How's your mother?

Very well.

Matt. Excuse me.

Um, would you please make the rounds with the coffee pot,

see if anybody needs anything?

Oh, sure. Listen, I told Jeff

that I'd come by this afternoon,

so after I pour coffee, uh, maybe I'll take off.

No, I don't think so, not today. Why not?

I want you here with the family.

Grandpa got to leave. How come I have to stay?

Matt, I don't need this

from you right now. Mommy?

Yes, honey?

Will you sing me Grandma's song?

Not right now, okay?

I'll sing it for you later, I promise.

I don't think I'm up to this.

I miss Grandma.

I know. Me, too.

I'm just gonna sit here and feel awful.

If I sat there like that, I'd go nuts.

I got to keep busy.

Hello.

Hi, Jeff.

It's for Mary.

Um... well, she's kind of busy right now.

So, where's your father?

He went back to Phoenix.

Oh, you have family there.

Well, no. No, not exactly.

He had some business that he had to go back for.

And the fish.

He-he went fishing?

Well, no, not-not really.

He, um...

What is it, Simon?

Uh, Mom, where exactly did Grandma go when she died?

Uh...

Well...

well, Simon, remember, we've talked about heaven,

that it's a place where good people go,

where they're surrounded by so much love.

Right, right, but I need to know where that is.

Well, y-you know, it's...

it's up there.

I was hoping you could be a little bit more specific than that.

I don't want a quiche. Where's heaven?

Clingy? Men aren't clingy; women are clingy.

Sorry, but he's gotten kind of clingy.

I liked him better when we were just friends.

All right, all right, I'll talk to him, straighten him out.

No, Matt, I'll talk to him.

If I'm ready to kiss a guy, then I'm certainly ready

to break up with him by myself.

What?! I can't believe you're just gonna dump him.

Oh, man, don't you see how weird this is gonna make things between me and him?

What do you want me to do, stay with him

the rest of my life so you don't have to feel weird?

Look, you're just confused because

of Grandma and everything. No, I'm not.

Look, promise me you won't break up with him today.

I'm gonna be here all day. I'm not even gonna talk to him.

Just promise. All right, all right, I promise.

Good.

But I'm not gonna change my mind.

See, heaven isn't an exact...

geographical place, like Iowa or-or France.

It's-it's more of a... spiritual place.

Uh-huh.

Simon?

Hello?

You're not paying attention.

Oh... I'm sorry, Dad.

It's just that that lady over there,

she must really be upset

over Grandma.

Here you go, Sue.

Oh. Oh, Reverend Camden.

Thank you.

Not at all.

Oh, oh, I'm so embarrassed.

I just can't seem to stop crying.

Don't be embarrassed.

It's a... it's a sad day.

What?

Oh. Oh, yes, your mother-in-law. I'm so sorry.

I wish I would've known her.

Well, you know, sometimes

our own... painful memories of the l-loss of a loved one

can be triggered in a situation like this.

Yes. Yes, I'm sure they can.

I mean, that's not why I'm crying.

I really wish it were.

Oh... Reverend Camden,

I just don't know how to tell you this, but...

my life is such a mess.

My marriage is a sham.

And Steven is keeping something from me, I know it.

Well, I... Maybe we should set up an appointment

for you to come by the office, and, you know, we could...

See, he doesn't even know that I suspect anything...

but I know that he's having an affair.

He...

Oh, no. What's he doing here?

Well, maybe he came to see Matt.

Not a chance.

How can you be so sure?

'Cause I can smell his cologne all the way over here.

I don't think he put that on for Matt.

How can you break up with a guy

who smells so good?

Ah.

I'm-I'm sorry, Reverend.

I know this is a bad day for you.

It's just that I have talk to someone like about this.

I'm-I'm going to explode.

Well, why don't you just calm down and tell me

what's on your mind?

Well, I-I know before, in the backyard,

you probably thought that Susan and I were

the happiest couple in the world.

It's all an act.

And... why do you say that?

I am acting happy

so that Susan won't know that anything is wrong,

but inside, I'm... I'm a...

I'm a tortured man.

You're tortured how?

I'm tortured because I'm, um...

I'm a bigamist.

I see.

You see, when I met Susan

I was, I was so in love with her.

I didn't want to tell her that I'd been married before

and that I wasn't completely divorced,

even though that relationship

is completely over, Reverend. Uh-huh.

And then when Susan and I got engaged,

I thought I would be divorced in time for the wedding,

but then you know the, the papers they...

they got hung up.

And then I... I just, like...

I couldn't bring myself to,

to ruin our wedding, so I, I went through with it.

While you were still married to someone else?

Yeah.

I mean, you know,

the papers came through afterwards.

I mean, the relationship is a done deal, I mean...

but it's just that I haven't been able to tell Susan,

and she's just so sweet and, and trusting.

And I just know that if I don't,

if she finds out,

she'll divorce me.

Well, Steve, I have some good news.

She can't divorce you.

You're not legally married.

No, man. You shouldn't even be here.

You look way too over-anxious.

You gotta play hard to get.

Be aloof. Women love that.

No way. Mary's not like that.

She's not into stupid mind games and stuff.

I know what I'm talking about.

I mean, you don't want her to think

you're clingy, do you?

Men aren't clingy.

What is it, honey?

Can we sing Grandma's song now?

Sure, we can.

Well, now, the first time

that Grandma taught me this song

was when I was a little girl

and I was going away to Girl Scout camp

for the first time, and I was very scared.

Why?

Well, I don't know.

I guess because I was afraid of being away from home,

you know and my parents.

Actually, it got to be sort of a family joke

'cause even when I was grown up,

every time anybody went anywhere,

Grandma would start humming this song.

Is that why she sang it to me?

Because she was going away?

Maybe so. Yeah.

Mrs. Camden?

I'm so glad I found you.

Oh, what is it Renee?

Are you okay?

I think the baby's coming.

Oh!

Well, I figured you'd know a little bit more

about the afterlife than most people,

you know, since you're in the business and all.

Sorry.

Have any of your dead bodies ever come back to life?

No. Never have.

Well, if one does,

be sure to ask him exactly where he was

when he was dead, okay?

Mr. Wilbur, Mr. Wilbur,

look, I'm sorry to bother you,

but can I borrow your limo?

My limo?

Yeah, come on.

Hey, Mr. Wilbur, wait!

Yeah, yeah, that's all right.

I'm happy to drive you to the hospital.

It'll be a nice change of pace for me.

Just keep breathing, just keep breathing, in out.

Okay.

That's right, okay.

Are you sure you don't want me to go with you?

No, no. Just keep trying to find Lou and Daddy

at that stupid comic book convention.

Okay, keep breathing.

Ow.

I'll go with you.

What?

I'll just stay with her

until Lou gets there.

I can handle it!

Okay, I think we should go.

All right, all right. Keep breathing.

Okay. Cool. Let's go.

Where are Matt and Renee going?

Hospital. Her water broke.

Interesting choice, sending Matt along.

I think he wants to prove to us

that he can be a responsible grown-up.

If nothing else, it'll be more effective

than any birth control lecture we could ever give him.

Hi.

You got anything to eat?

No. Not if you don't count all this food.

Never mind.

I've got a lot of stuff I've got to go do.

I'm pretty busy, you know.

Hey, I better go.

Hey, Luce, have you seen your mom?

Not lately.

Hey, how's my girl?

Not so good.

Feeling pretty sad, huh?

Yeah.

You want to talk about it?

I just keep thinking it's not fair.

Grandma should be here.

It's like there's a party going on and she wasn't invited.

Luce, I know it feels kind of strange

having all these people here, and all this food,

but it's not really a party. It's-it's...

It's just a way for people who loved Grandma,

and your mom, to...

I don't mean this party, Daddy.

I mean life.

Life is going on without her.

It's just not fair.

I know.

Really? The whole solar system is mapped out?

I didn't know that.

The whole universe really.

So, you see, there's no unaccounted for spaces.

So when people say "Oh, yeah, heaven is up there,"

there's really no room for it.

I see what you mean.

So I was wondering where you thought it might be.

Oh, that's a tough one.

You know, maybe it's, it's in the fifth dimension.

Interesting.

Do you happen to know where that is?

Any idea where your father is?

Uh, no, haven't seen him.

Well, I sure can't keep track

of the men in my life today.

They keep spinning off into oblivion.

Well, I'm here.

Oh, yes, you are.

Thanks.

Too bad your Grandfather

isn't as grown up as you are.

You know, Mom,

whenever I'm really mad at Daddy about anything,

and I don't even want to see him

or talk to him, you know, he gets right in my face

and makes me tell him what's wrong.

It drives me crazy, but I usually feel better after.

Mary, I really would appreciate it

if you would stop being so wise and mature

while I'm in the middle of sulking

and feeling sorry for myself.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm sorry about your grandmother.

Thanks.

Anyway, I'm really sorry.

I'm really sorry about you and Mary, too.

How come?

You know, because she dumped you

and everything.

What?

Ah! Oh! Ow!

Ow! Ow!

It'll be okay! It'll be okay!

Just hang in there.

Do you want to do your breathing?

No!

Yeah. Okay, yeah, I'll try.

Okay. Trying's good, yeah.

How you doing?

Better. I think it's over.

Yeah? Okay, okay, you're doing great.

I'm just going to go outside for a second

and see if Lou's there yet, and I'll be right back.

Yeah, okay. Find Lou.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.

And I'm sure he's almost here so, don't worry.

According to my notes from our prenuptial counseling sessions,

both of you listed "communication"

as the most important ingredient in a good marriage.

Do you both still feel that way?

Good. Hey, I agree with you.

If married couples don't communicate,

things can get misinterpreted and-and people

can get hurt.

I have found that when we try to sweep things under the rug

or pretend they're not there,

it can often make matters worse.

Has either of you ever felt that way?

Good, good...

Um... now, Susan,

Steve has something

he would like to say to you.

Go ahead.

I, um...

I-I-I... I can't.

Steve. Reverend, please, you tell her.

Please...

Never mind.

I already know what it is.

You're having an affair, aren't you?

No.

I am leaving you today.

Reverend, tell her.

All right, uh... all right.

Susan, Steve would like me to tell you.

There's good news and there's bad news.

Um...

Yeah. Right?

GRANDPA: Thanks for calling.

Please leave a message.

Daddy, it's Annie.

I guess you're not home from the airport yet.

But I just wanted to get something off my chest.

I feel like you abandoned me today.

I really needed support, you know?

To tell you the truth, I'm pretty angry at you.

I feel like I lost my mother and my father.

And I think it's a pretty rotten thing to do.

And I just thought you ought to know it.

Good-bye.

Let me talk to Mom.

Why?

Don't be stupid. Let me talk to her.

No. I'm not disturbing her.

She's finally resting upstairs.

Mary, I think I said the wrong thing... I'm on the phone.

Then let me talk to Dad.

Nobody knows where he is.

And when he does show up, Mom needs him.

How's Renee?

She's in labor, that's how she is.

The baby's coming,

and Lou hasn't picked up my 20 messages I left

at the Batman Pavilion. I can handle this.

Well, you told Mom you could handle it,

so you better handle it.

I can't. Well, you have to.

I'm handling everything down here.

Now get back in there.

Dr. Zimmerman, call Pediatrics.

Dr. Zimmerman, call Pediatrics on five-three.

What do you want?

Never mind.

Now what?

Did you hear that? Yeah, I did.

Wha...?

No, no, no problem.

If somebody could just get me a towel.

Ever again!

Ever!

I'll only be a minute.

Honey, don't...!

Put that glass down!

Put that glass...!

I'll cherish these forever.

Okay.

Let's get going. Hey, thanks very much.

Bye. Bye.

Oh, you know what?

Actually, I do have some follow-up questions,

if you don't mind.

All right. Okay.

Oh, okay, number one... People go to heaven, right?

Yeah. But is there a separate heaven for dogs?

Honey?

Well, that's a good question, uh...

Hi.

Need some help?

Sure.

You know I was just wondering

is there something that you wanted to talk to me about?

What do you mean?

Well, like, are you upset about anything in particular?

You mean other than my grandmother dying?

Yeah.

No, not really.

So you're not upset with me playing hard-to-get today?

No. Not at all.

Oh, good.

That's the last time I listen

to that bonehead Matt about anything.

You know, he had this bogus idea

that I should play hard-to-get with you.

I told him it was stupid.

Yeah, really stupid.

Then Lucy, she has this crazy idea that,

that you wanted to break up with me.

She did?

Yeah.

She really had me worried.

You know, but I'll tell you what,

you know, I want to make you a promise right here and now

that I'll never play games like that ever again.

That's good.

You know and just to show you

that I'm not kidding and I really mean it,

I'd like to ask you something.

Will you go steady with me?

Um... you know, Jeff,

maybe there is something we should talk about.

Ah, just in time, Dad.

I'm not the dad.

Where's Lou?

Renee, I'm really sorry.

We couldn't find him. He's not coming.

Oh, no.

Okay. The baby's crowning.

Looking good, Renee. Oh, God.

You want to come take a look here,

"Not The Dad?" No. No.

I-I should go.

Matt, please...

Please, don't go. I'm scared.

Renee, you can start pushing.

Hey, maybe I'll just stay up here at this end.

Come on, Renee, push.

Push! NURSE: Sponge.

Come on. Push!

I thought you were in there.

Simon, you shouldn't lurk out here.

Sorry, I just wanted to make sure I caught you.

May I borrow that?

Yeah, sure.

You're still conducting your inquiry, I see.

Yeah, that's what I wanted to talk to you about.

Shoot.

I'm not getting very far.

I suspected as much.

You know, the thing is, Simon,

nobody really knows where heaven is,

or what it's like.

Come on, somebody must know.

Nope.

I kind of like it that way.

Immortality should be a great and glorious mystery, Simon.

If you knew where heaven was,

if you could just point to it on a map,

or go there whenever you wanted, it wouldn't be heaven.

There should only be one way to get in.

Now, I need you to tell me

where your mom is.

I don't know, I think she's up...

Uh-oh. SUSAN: Well, maybe

I don't want to marry you anymore.

Wha...? Wha...? Wha...?

You don't want to marry me?

No, I didn't say that.

But you married me once.

I said "maybe..."

Do me a favor.

Tell your mom I'll just be a minute.

Lied to me for so long.

Or two.

And, Simon, don't lurk.

Hi, Daddy.

I'm really sorry about what I said on the first message.

I'm just really sad and confused.

I miss Mom so much... and I miss you.

Where are you?

I can't imagine where you could be this late.

I'm really worried about you, Daddy, okay?

So please call me as soon as you get this message, okay?

Hi.

I didn't know you were still here.

Well, don't worry, I'm going.

You don't have to go if you don't want to.

I don't want to stay where I'm not welcome.

Jeff, that's not what I said.

I suppose now you're gonna tell me we can still be friends.

Well, yeah.

I don't believe this.

You know, I've been coming to this house

since I was six years old

and now all of a sudden it feels weird to be here.

Look, if I knew dating you

meant that we couldn't be friends anymore,

I never would've done it to begin with.

That's the difference between guys and girls.

I still would have.

Mary, it's just going to take me some time

to going back to thinking of you

as Matt's gawky kid sister.

There's nothing I can do about that.

Well, I suppose if I kick your butt in basketball,

I'll feel better.

Works for me.

But you've got to spot me six points.

Four, don't push your luck.

What's this?

Well, Dad says when you don't know what to say,

but you want to help, bring food.

Oh, thank you, Simon.

Apparently, there is a man around here

who I can count on.

The black olives are for you.

Very thoughtful. Thank you.

No problem.

Did you get an answer to your question?

Not really.

Did you ask your Dad?

Yeah. Frankly, he was no help.

I just wish I knew where Grandma is right now.

I know.

Actually, I wouldn't mind knowing where Grandpa is.

Or Matt. Or your Dad.

Can I have some of that?

Here you go, Doctor.

Ow, it hurts.

Okay, stop pushing, Renee.

I can't.

All right, here comes the shoulder.

Ow, make it stop!

Sponge.

Good. Suction.

Suction.

Stop pushing, Renee.

I'm trying.

Oh, there she is. Blankets ready.

There she is.

You have a beautiful baby girl, Renee.

There she is, Renee.

Good job, Renee.

Matt, look.

I can't.

Matt, look, she's beautiful.

No...

No, I can't.

Yes, you can.

Matt...

Look at her.

Wow.

She's precious.

Hey, baby. Hey...

Hi.

There you are. Where have you been?

Oh, you wouldn't believe, Annie.

Today of all days.

Every time I turned around,

I bumped into another person with a problem.

I mean, I've run the gamut from the nature of immortality

to bigamy to marital discord.

You remember the Walkers?

Annie?

Watch out or you might have

some marital discord of your own.

I'm feeling just a little abandoned today.

I'm sorry.

I had every intention of being by your side,

but somehow I just kept getting distracted.

Occupational hazards, huh?

A great example of physician heal thyself.

At least you're here now.

Oh, boy.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

There's just, there's one thing

that I have got to take care of

and then I promise I'm, I'm all yours.

Listen, um...

Listen, can you just give me ten minutes

and then meet me at the church?

I don't know, I'm...

I'm a little tired.

Please. It's important.

To us.

Okay. Ten minutes.

Fantastic.

Oh, and, um...

do you know that, that little white dress you have

with the lacy collar and the pearl buttons?

Could I borrow it?

What are we doing?

I'm thinking.

About what?

No one seems to know

where you go when you die.

Oh.

I know.

You don't either.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, where?

I don't know the name of it,

but it's where I was before I was born.

You were in Mommy's stomach before you were born.

No, before that.

I don't know where that is.

I can't picture Grandma there.

Picture Grandma here,

in your heart.

I, Susan, take you, Steven...

To be my husband...

To be my husband...

To have and to hold...

To have and to hold...

To love and to cherish...

To love and to cherish...

For richer, for poorer...

For richer, for poorer...

In sickness and in health...

In sickness

and in health...

In good times and bad times...

In good times and in bad times...

From this day forward...

From this day forward...

till death us do part.

Till death us do part.

You, you, uh...

You may kiss the bride.

Ooh... oh!

Second chance.

Ooh...

I was supposed to take. Come on.

All right.

Still here, huh?

Yep. Still here.

Can we have our ball back now?

Um, in a minute. I want to talk to you first.

Oh, did Renee have her baby?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's, uh, she's fine.

That's part of what I want to talk to you about.

Now, I, uh, I know you two

really like each other

and you like kissing each other and all that,

but tonight I saw what kissing can lead to.

So I think you'll both understand, uh,

when I tell you I think you should cool it for a while.

I guess he's right.

Yeah.

Okay, yeah, we'll break up.

You know, if you think it's a good idea.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I do.

You know, for now.

Well, I guess this is it then.

Yeah.

Thanks, man.

Yeah, thanks.

No problem.

Can we have our ball back now?

Oh, yeah, sure.

Well, good night.

Night.

Good night.

Alone at last.

And worth the wait.

Oh, I'm glad to hear you say that.

I'm sorry I let you down today.

Oh, you didn't. Not really.

I think you were taking the heat

for the sins of the Father.

Well, let's get you home.

You must be exhausted.

You know...

20 years later,

you still make a beautiful bride.

You take my breath away.

Oh, yum, this is great.

It's my favorite kind of pie.

This is so good.

Should I go get the cherry pie?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Thanks... I would've

gotten that myself, but my hands are full.

Mom, are you okay?

I'm fine.

She's fine.

I was just carrying my bride across the threshold.

Hey, you guys want some pie?

You know, I am a little hungry.

Mom, we've got eight leftover pies.

Wow.

You know, we really should send one to Grandpa.

He likes apple. He told me.

Did he call?

Nope.

He told me a couple weeks ago.

Mommy.

Can we sing Grandma's song now?

Yes, sweetie.

Here, I tell you what.

We'll go upstairs,

we'll wash our face,

we'll get in our jammies

and I'll sing you Grandma's song.

Mom.

Matt, how's Renee?

She-she's fine. She had the baby.

And, Mom, guess what... I helped.

What? With the birth?

Yeah.

Well, where was Lou?

Um, he couldn't get back in time.

Mom, it was so incredible.

It was like, I don't know...

a miracle or something.

I know what you mean.

I can't believe you went through it five times.

Oh, yeah, I definitely did.

You're really brave.

Thanks. So are you.

Man, we were counting on you and you came through.

Hey, did Renee have her baby?

Yeah, yeah. She had a girl.

Cool.

Oh, and, Mom, I almost forgot to tell you the coolest part.

What?

Renee named her baby after Grandma.

She named her baby "Grandma"?

Her name was Jenny, Simon.

Oh, I had no idea.

Mommy.

You had a long day, huh?

You did a pretty good job.

You almost got all the blueberry off.

Mommy?

Yeah?

Are you always going to be here?

What do you mean?

Are you going to pass away,

like Grandma?

Someday I will,

but not for a very, very long time,

so you shouldn't worry, okay?

Mm-hmm.

And I promise you this...

That as long as I'm around,

no matter how old you get,

you will always be able to count on me.

I'll always be there if you need me,

no matter what.

Annie.

Daddy?

I wish that I had lived up

to that same promise you just made Ruthie.

You know I've never been very good at handling tragedies.

My response to that has always been

to make a quick exit or make a joke.

I know.

I ran out on you today

because I thought I might fall apart.

Daddy, it's okay.

I didn't even make it to the airport.

I turned the taxi around and went back to the cemetery.

I sat there all day.

Ran out of jokes pretty fast.

Plus your mother's already heard all my jokes.

So I just sat there.

And then I decided, after a few hours,

that if I was going to feel terrible and alone...

I'd like to do it with someone I love.

I am sorry, that I left today.

Oh, Daddy...

I'm just glad you're here now.

We can help each other get through this.

Mommy, can we sing now?

Oh...

She's been asking all day

to hear Grandma's favorite song.

Well let's give it to her.
