Are we gonna be eating
like this every night?

- Like what?
- Like fish.

Yes. Did you like it?

It was very delicious, in a way.

Thank you, but in a way,
there is no very delicious.

It's not more delicious
or less delicious,

it's either delicious or it isn't.

- It was definitely delicious.
- Did you two like it?

- Loved it.
- Loved it.

- Now can we get a burger and fries?
- We're starving.

[LUCY & MARY SIGH]

[HAPPY BARKS]

ANNIE: Well, at least Sam and David
enjoyed their dinner. Heh-heh.

- Did you get enough to eat?
- Oh, yeah, I had plenty.

- Good.
- I ate before I came over.

- Right.
- What a wonderful meal.

It's a wonderful meal. It was maybe
the best meal I've ever had in my life.

You said that last night
and the night before.

No, really. I mean,
the fish was just the right texture.

It was flaky, moist, succulent.

I feel as if I've dined in a deep blue sea
surrounded by love.

Oh. Heh.

Oh! Mm. Mm. Mm-mm.

[MOUTHING]
I know.

[ANNIE CHUCKLING]

- Life is beautiful.
- Oh, it is.

It is, it is.

- Too beautiful?
- Just a smidge.

- Hungry?
- Burrito supreme and a churro?

[MATT LAUGHS]

Okay, okay. Come here, baby.
We'll get you some milk.

Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Don't be long.

ERIC [SINGING]:
I've got a home in glory land

That outshines the sun

I've got a home in glory land
That outshines the sun

Ugh!

I've got a home in glory land
That outshines the sun

Way beyond the blue
Whoa!

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me

[HAPPY WHINES]

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me

Way beyond the blue

Ugh!

I took Jesus as my saviour
You can take him too

Oh, I took Jesus as my saviour
You can take him too

I took Jesus as my saviour
You can take him too

Way beyond the blue

I got a home in a great new land
That outshines the sun

He's singing again.
He never used to sing.

- Oh, sure he did.
- Not like that.

Well, it's okay, you know.

Dad's just really happy,
so he's sharing his happiness.

Nighttime, daytime, all the time.

But, anyway,
let's just get under the covers

and see if we can't sleep
another minute or two.

[RUTHIE SIGHS]

Come. Blankie, yes,
and tuck them in, yes. Mwah! Okay.

ERIC [SINGING]:
Oh, do Lord, oh, do Lord,

Oh, do remember me

Way beyond the blue

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me, wah, wah, wah

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me, wah, wah, wah

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me

Way beyond the blue

I took Jesus as my saviour
You can take him too

I took Jesus as my saviour
You can take him too

[PHONE RINGING]

Hello? There's no one there.

When I find out who keeps calling
here every morning--

Don't look at me.
I don't know who it is.

What happened to the alarm?
I gotta get to work.

Man, when you get home,
we gotta clean this place up.

Who could you possibly
be calling at this hour?

Well, I was calling Matt,
but he's not home.

- He has a job, remember?
- Oh, yes, I remember.

I just wanna make sure he keeps it.
Ha, ha.

Well, all right, that was a wake-up call.
I-- I call every morning, just in case.

You're supposed to stay off the phone.
No calls equals no stress, remember?

I'm not stressed.
Life gave me a second chance.

I'm gonna give life a second chance.
Wanna dance?

Yeah, yeah.

[ANNIE CHUCKLING]

[ERIC HUMMING]

I can't take all this happiness.

I want Dad to go back to normal
so I can get some sleep.

Eventually, things will go back
to normal, but until then,

I'm the man of the house.
Now, did you do your homework?

I just wanna check
before you go to school.

You know, like Dad would
if he weren't supposed to be resting.

I'm not showing you my homework.
I don't have to. I know if I did it or not.

- Did you?
- I still have time.

But I'm still gonna want to see it.

It's something for you to read
when you get a moment.

ANNIE:
Oh, yes, when I get a moment, I will.

Okay, well, I'll finish up here.
You should be meditating.

I'll meditate later,
when the house is quiet.

No, no. The trick is to meditate
when the house is noisy.

And that's the challenge.

After all, how often
is the house gonna be quiet?

And if noise is your excuse,
then you're never gonna do it, right?

You know, I think that is right.

Thanks, son.

ANNIE:
Yeah.

Did you get your math quiz signed?

No, but I'm on my way to ask Dad
right now.

Wait a minute.
We're not supposed to upset him.

Why don't you just ask Mom?

Because right now
he is un-upsetable.

But still, should you take advantage
of his...? His...?

His post-heart-attack insanity?

- If you want to call it that.
- Mom said it won't last.

So we might as well enjoy it
while it's here. Wanna come?

Why not? Even in his insanity,
he's still Dad,

and you're still you,
so this should be fun.

Nice to see you...two?

Would you care to join me?

Uh, no, we have to get off to school,

and that's why
I need you to sign this.

- What happened?
- I don't know.

I did the homework the night before,
but I had a hard time with it,

and then the teacher didn't go over it

before she busted us
with this pop quiz.

You've always done well in school,
haven't you, Mary?

For the most part, yeah.

And is math important to you?

No, not really.

I mean, there's just something about
this trigonometry that I don't get.

Like, where am I ever gonna use it
in real life?

Do you think you might have to think
for yourself in real life?

I mean, you think you might ever
have to solve a problem

that's more difficult
than a trigonometry problem

that has an exact answer?

Uh, I don't know. Heh.

Mary, please.

Life is deeper, more meaningful,
more complex than you can imagine.

And if I let you off
with just signing this test

and not telling you
how important you are to me,

and how important it is for you
to have good grades,

and more than that, uh,
to have a good mind,

then I would be missing out
on some parental bliss.

[CHUCKLES]

- Did you do your homework?
- Mind your own business.

It is my business.

Hey.

Okay, well, I'm gonna go round up
the other kids as soon as I shave.

Shave?

Yeah, shave.

Ahem.
When did you start shaving?

When Dad came home
from the hospital.

Oh, I see.

What's Mary doing?

Oh, Dad cornered her. He's helping
her with her math homework.

He doesn't need
to be doing homework,

he's supposed to be meditating.

It's important for him to relax.

I'm fine.

I just came up with a great idea.

It's kind of something
that just came to me

when I was correcting
Mary's homework.

It's about

connection.

As in the opposite of

alienation.

Hmm? And I'm telling you,
that brief moment when Mary

reached out to me,
sparked something.

Yeah.

I think it would be a wonderful thing

if each of the kids
would go to school today

and enlist the assistance
of someone

whom they've previously alienated.

It'll be a wonderful experience for you.
I know it will.

[MARY SIGHS]

Will you do it? For me?

Okay. Heh.

Sure.

Will you ask Simon and Ruthie
to do it too?

Yeah.

I got a 15-minute break.
Can I take a shower?

- Um, him too?
- Yes, Matt too. Great.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey, watch it.

What are you doing?

- What does it look like I'm doing?
- It looks like you're shaving.

[MATT LAUGHS]

- So?
- So nothing.

MATT:
Whoo-hoo-hoo!

No crying.

You're the man of the house.

[CHATTERING]

What are you doing?

I'm trying to connect with some
alienated people but I can't find any.

How about the junior class
Three Stooges?

Susan Gertz, Lisa Lunby,
Carole Overhill?

They're weird. Too weird.

And I don't want to go that far
with Dad's wacky idea.

Good. So here's
how you can help me.

What? I leave you out of my life
all the time.

Alienation.

So now I'm gonna let you do
something for me.

- Connection.
- Ugh.

So the coach is gonna be
a half-hour late to practice.

After school, meet me in the gym
and try to keep the ball away from me.

- Why me?
- You're shorter than a real player,

and so it's more of a challenge.

And besides, I'm looking to get
the Dad assignment over with too.

I see. Yet I haven't felt the alienation,
therefore, I don't want the connection.

You know what your problem is?

You don't have basketball,
you don't have anything.

So next year,
you're gonna be a senior,

and trying to figure out
what college you're going to,

and how you're gonna pay for it,
and I hope that nobody helps you

with whatever it is you finally decide
that you wanna do.

Okay. If it means that much to you.

Forget it. You're better off
spending your time deciding

what you wanna do in life.

[CHATTERING]

Hey, did you make it to work
on time?

Barely. I ran to my house on my break
and cleaned up.

- Cool. How's your dad?
- Oh, he's fine.

He's high on life, way high.
This morning he suggested

to each of us that we find someone
we had alienated before,

and find some way to reconnect
by asking them for help.

Like asking for help is gonna lure them
into some kind of friendship.

No, no, that's an interesting notion.

But isn't it once you ask for help,
then the two get involved

in something together,
thereby creating a friendship of sorts?

- Are you high too?
- No, really.

I think he's onto something.
I was looking to make up with Shana

because I know she wasn't so happy
about us moving in together.

She's feeling kind of left out
with you having this new life.

- Shana's fine, she's over it.
- I don't know about that.

Well, here she comes.
You're welcome to try it.

- I gotta get to class.
- All right.

- Hey.
- Hi.

- Mwah. I have to run.
- Oh, well, run. Have a good day.

I'll talk to you later.

When you have time for me between
your job and your new apartment.

I was wondering
if you could help me with something.

- Yeah, probably.
- Well, I'm new here,

and I'm still kind of lost.

Think you have some time
to take a walk, show me around?

Uh...

Yeah, I guess.
I'll take a walk with you.

Cool. All right.

I'm sorry. I couldn't see
where I was going.

Um...

I'm doing a little research
on hereditary diseases

and cholesterol
and hearts and stuff,

because my dad
just had a heart attack.

How far you plan
on juggling this stuff?

I was just heading over to my locker.

I'll take them.

Well, thanks.
That's really nice of you.

I'm usually up to carrying a load,
but now I'm man of the house,

I got three sisters
and 6-month-old twins to take care of,

so I gotta admit,
I'm a little worn out.

Not that I'm not up to the job,
it's just, uh...

- It's just new to me, that's all.
- Your dad died?

No, no, he's fine.

He's just taking it easy for a few weeks
and I'm filling in.

- So he's gonna be okay?
- Oh, yeah, yeah. He should be fine.

It was just a mild heart attack.

So he just needs to change his diet
and exercise. Stuff like that.

That's all? What are you, a wimp?

Stop complaining and buck up, kid.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

No!

Oh, I'm sorry about the bell. I forgot.

Is the reverend
up to visitors today?

Oh, he's fine.
But he's not entertaining quite yet.

Oh, is there anything I can do
for the reverend?

You know, everyone at church
keeps calling and asking

what can they do for him,
and I don't know what to tell them.

There's nothing to do for him, really.

Just give him a little time to rest.
Uh-huh.

Oh, so he's still
feeling poorly, is he?

[WHIMPERS]

No, he's feeling fine, really.

Thank you.
Thank you for stopping by.

- Okay.
- Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

[SIGHS]

- What are you doing?
- I'm sitting.

Now I'm standing.

Now I'm sitting again.

Isn't it just amazing how,

when you want to stand up,
you just automatically stand up,

and when you want to sit down,
you just sit down.

When you think about it,
it's miraculous.

I mean, you have this huge head,

yet when it goes up,
the body goes up.

it goes down, body goes down.

Yes, the human body is miraculous.

ANNIE:
So is anybody up there?

Watch, watch.

You know,

electricity is an amazing technology.

Yes, it's amazing.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey. Do you need some help
with your math homework?

- No, I'll help her.
- But--

[MUSIC PLAYS ON STEREO]

- You were supposed to take a bath.
- I did.

If you did,
you didn't use a towel to dry off.

You're starting to get on my nerves.

I'm just doing my job. Now go.

Wait.

Which is it, go or wait?

Did you attempt to make friends
with any alienated kids today?

I tried but Ricky said
his parents are citizens.

I was looking for you.
I wanna ask you something.

- Really?
- Yeah, really.

Well, fire away, Lucy.

Do you have any idea
what I should be when I grow up?

Um, well, in the past,
what has made you feel the most

confident and happy
with who you are?

- Boys.
- Big help. I could have told me that.

Hey, I think you got
a 5:00 shadow, pal.

[LAUGHING]

RUTHIE:
Do you ever knock?

Sorry.

What are we doing?

- Simon told me to take a bath.
- So take a bath.

- But I'm not dirty.
- Then don't take a bath.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

[MATT CHUCKLES]

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Matt said I don't have to take a bath.
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Well, you're good at stuff
that Mom's good at.

You have mechanical skills
and you like to fix cars and stuff and--

Did you tell Ruthie
she doesn't have to take a bath?

- Yeah, what do you care?
- I care, okay?

And what's Lucy
talking to you about?

I was talking to Matt about my future,
if you don't mind.

I do mind.

Oh, well, that's too bad,
because Matt might actually be helpful.

- What was that about?
- I don't know.

- So you were saying?
- Oh, I was saying,

you should go to technical school,
be a mechanic.

- A mechanic?
- Yeah.

I don't want to be a mechanic.
I wanna do something important.

You ever have the brakes on a car
go out on you?

A lot of guys at technical school.

Why does everyone think that
the only thing I'm interested in is guys?

To the exponent of negative 40.

To the exponent of negative 40.
I know it.

You've said that three times
and it doesn't make any sense,

so stop saying it.
This isn't helping me.

You know, it's been a long time
since I've done math.

Just be a little patient.

- I need Dad.
- I know, we all need Dad.

But what Dad needs to do now
is just take it easy for a week or two,

so that's what Dad's gonna do.

And what we're gonna do
is try to figure out this math problem.

Good night. Heh.

Well, it may be a good night for him.

You know, your attitude
is not helping at all.

I'll be right back.

Hey. How was your day?

Oh, my day was busy.

Did you get a chance to experiment
with my friendship theory?

The theory to end alienation
and connect all human beings

- through helping one another?
- That's the one.

No, but I passed it on to John,
and John's trying it out.

That's good. That's very good.

All right. Good night.

Good night. Hey, I love you son.

I love you too.

[SINGING]
Do Lord, oh, do Lord

Oh, do remember me
Wah, wah, wah

Do Lord, oh, do Lord
Oh, do remember me

[BABY WHIMPERS]

Dad's lying on the picnic table,
singing in the dark, singing loud.

Loudly.

[PHONE RINGS]

Hello? Oh. Oh, yes.
Mrs. Clark? Oh, he's fine.

No, he's not fine.
He's way too happy and way too loud.

Are we done?

If you're finished helping Mary,
maybe you could take two minutes

to discuss what I should be
doing with my life.

Leave Mom alone.
I'm the man of the house.

No, really, everything's just fine.

[CHUCKLES]

[SINGING]
Do Lord, oh, do Lord

Oh, do remember me

Way beyond the blue

SHANA:
Awesome.

- What's this?
- This is what your apartment looks like

when it's clean. Like it?

Man, Shana is like
the white tornado.

John asked me to show him
around campus.

JOHN: I bought her dinner
at the student lounge.

I offered to pay him back
by helping him clean up.

Hey, you don't have to explain
anything. This is great, thanks.

- I have to go. I have a late shift.
- I agreed to give her a ride.

I have to go by the record store
and pick up my pay cheque.

John is really nice.

[CRYING]

Well, I can't help it
if you're no good in math.

I can't help it either.

And I am good at math.

I'm good with accounting. I just--

I can't do trigonometry.

Well, what am I supposed to do?

I don't know.

Maybe we could get you a tutor.

We can't afford a tutor.

I know.

Well, there's an after-school
programme.

There's free help after school.

I have basketball after school.

But basketball's not more important
than math.

Yeah, it is. I hate math.

I do too.

- Let's go to bed.
- Okay.

Come on.

[SNIFFLING]

Hey, you crying?

Yes, I'm crying.

I'm just so happy you're alive.

So am I.

This is a nut house.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

I just dropped my little one
off at school,

and I was wondering is there anything
I can do for your husband?

You know, I heard that there was
some sort of disturbance last night.

- Who said there was a disturbance?
- Oh, it was Mrs. Norwood.

But by 9:00, you know,
she gets a little tipsy.

You know, Mrs. Beeker,
I don't gossip and I don't like gossip.

Well, please tell the reverend

I said I'm praying
for a speedy recovery. Goodbye.

[GROWLS]

Wait. I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

If I weren't, would you tell
the whole neighbourhood?

You know, Annie,
sometimes people gossip

because they're trying
to make a friend.

And I'm afraid I am entirely guilty

of often going about making friends
in the wrong way.

I know I put you off,

and obviously you have
a husband and children,

and, well, you don't need
a nosy neighbour lady

to share your weary load. Do you?

It's just that I don't have
that much time to talk.

Well, of course not.

There's probably laundry
and ironing and cooking

and all of my favourite things to do.

Come in.

[ERIC WHISTLING]

BEEKER:
Oh.

- Hello, Mrs. Beeker.
- Well--

Honey, I want to get outside and see
how the spider's doing with her web.

You know, the way
the light plays on it?

It's like a work of art.
It's just magnificent.

There's a spider web
under the picnic table.

The picnic table
he was lying on last night

when he woke up
the neighbourhood, singing.

Oh, yes, but we don't want to talk
about that.

Now, you put me to work, sister.
I am at your service.

[ANNIE CHUCKLES]

We need more people.

And it'd be great to get someone
off the B list.

- The B list?
- Well, you're not the A list.

No, B list is fine.
I had no idea I was considered a B list.

If you're doing it to meet guys, forget it.
Most of them are older and married.

I'm not doing it to meet guys.
I swear.

- Then why are you doing it?
- I don't know exactly.

It doesn't matter.
Like they say, "Just do it."

[BELL RINGS]

Oh, I'm sorry.
We'll see you after school.

- Want some advice?
- Sure.

You were very close to the A list when
you went out with Jordan last year,

I'd hate to see you blow it.

Hi, I'm Lucy.

I'm Jan.

I take it you're on the A list?

I appreciate the advice.

I appreciate it in that
I appreciate your talking to me,

my being on the B list and all.

But those women
are doing something so cool,

I'm going to have to take a chance
on blowing it.

Besides, the B list is more than
I've ever aspired to.

So see you.

[VOICE MAIL]
Hi, this is Shana.

How about leaving me a message?

It's me again. I'm just getting worried
because I haven't heard from you.

Let me know if you need a ride
to work tonight. Hope nothing's wrong.

[LAUGHING]

Hi.

John lent me his car
to do some errands,

so I picked him up after class.

Fine.

- Is something wrong?
- No. No, nothing's wrong,

I'm glad the two of you have
so much time for each other.

I'll just get ready for work.

Yeah.

I thought you'd be happy
John and I are getting along.

I had felt kind of left out.

Well, guess who's feeling
left out now?

Hey, how's that man-of-the-house job
coming along?

Uh, you got a little something.

Oh. No one ever tells you
these things.

Don't worry about it.
Men do that all the time.

- Really?
- Oh, yeah.

Happened to me
when I first started shaving.

To tell you the truth, I'm not so good
at being the man of the house.

I mean, no one really pays
any attention.

It hurts your feelings, doesn't it?

- Well, it's not that.
- Makes you wanna cry?

No, it doesn't make me wanna cry.

When my Dad died, you know,
I didn't think I could cry.

I mean, boys don't cry, right?

Then one night I started,
I just couldn't stop.

My Mom freaked
and made me take up football

so I wouldn't become a sissy.

Eh. I used to come home
from practice crying.

So then she got me
into this boys' group

where I had like some fake dad
coming around, trying to influence me.

Still couldn't quit crying.

- What happened then?
- Then we both went to see your dad.

We could have gone to our own
minister, but my mom was afraid

someone would see us
and think I was giving her a hard time.

Your dad told me
that I can cry and be a man.

I can get my feelings hurt
and be a man,

because, uh,
men do have feelings.

He told my mom she didn't have to
get me a male influence in my life

because she was doing
such a great job.

Eh, then I didn't feel so much like
crying all the time, you know.

Just once in a while.

And I let that fake dad guy
stick around.

As it turns out, I love football.

Oh, and tell your dad
hello for me

and get him to teach you
how to shave.

Oh, thanks.

- Hey.
- Come on, Weepy, we got practice.

Oh. Weepy's my nickname.
What do I care?

- Where's Mom?
- Mom's busy and Mary's got practice.

Where's Lucy?

I dropped off Mom's tool box to her,

and she's off on some
big secret adventure.

And what is
the big secret adventure?

- Probably something to do with boys.
- Probably.

You should have found out.

Why, little man?
What difference does it make?

Okay, that's it. Get out of the car.

Oh, boy. Brother against brother.
Not since the Civil War.

Well, you heard me, get out.

Heh-heh. Why? You planning
on beating me up?

No, I plan on telling you off.

Now get out and take it like a man.

If there's gonna be a fight,
I'd like to jump in like a woman.

Specifically, Xena.

Would you stay in the car?

- What's this all about?
- You know exactly what this is about.

You moved out and left me to take
care of Mom and Dad and the kids.

I didn't leave you
to take care of anyone.

Yeah, well, nevertheless,
I'm taking care of everyone,

- and you're undermining my authority.
- How?

By telling Ruthie
that she doesn't have to take a bath.

And by doing all kinds of stuff.

- What kinds of stuff?
- Just stuff, okay?

- Well, don't get so upset.
- It's too late because I am upset.

You know the thing
I'm most upset about?

Is the fact that you find all this
so funny,

like I'm some kind of an idiot
or something.

When did I ever act
like you were an idiot?

When I was shaving.

I mean, it hurt my feelings.

I mean, did people laugh at you
when you started shaving?

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay, I just wanted you to know.

No, I feel terrible.

Really, it's fine.

- I'm sorry.
- Me too.

It's just been a tough couple of weeks,
you know?

God save my soul.

When are things
going back to normal?

[MARY & BEEKER LAUGHING]

BEEKER:
You see?

- I feel like such a dope.
- Oh. Oh, you shouldn't.

It's just that nobody's explained
trigonometry to you

in a way that makes sense.

Oh, no offence to the reverend
or your mom.

But trigonometry can be fun.

I don't know about fun,
but at least I'm starting to get it.

Good. Good.

- Oh.
- What's going on?

Mrs. Beeker's helping me
with my math.

I left you a plate in the microwave.
Dessert's in the fridge.

Yeah, lemon meringue.

I'm gonna check on the twins
and then I better be taking off.

So, what did you do with your new
weird friends that involved dirt?

Nothing much.
I just decided what I'm gonna do

with the rest of my life, that's all.

- Well?
- I joined Habitat for Humanity.

Mom let me borrow her tools
and this guy showed me

how to put shingles on a roof,
and I roofed.

Oh, so there is a guy involved.

He's 70, a master carpenter.

And he helped me and
my new friends roof an entire house.

A house people are gonna live in.
People who've never had a house.

You're gonna work
for Habitat for Humanity

- for the rest of your life?
- I hope so.

I want to design and build
low-income housing

and volunteer whatever time I have
while I'm learning to do that.

This is unbelievable.
I am really, really proud of you.

Thanks, but I owe it all to you.

If you hadn't given me the push,
I wouldn't have done it.

Oh, I just love this family.

[BOTH LAUGH]

You know she's gonna tell the entire
neighbourhood that you're bad at math.

Oh, yeah. I don't care though.

I'd rather the whole world know
than do homework with Mom again.

[LUCY LAUGHS]

[KNOCKING]

Get out.

I'm not here to bug you
about your homework.

I'm sure you're doing your homework

even though that's a Hello Kitty
colouring book you have there.

I just wanted to know
if you've had an opportunity

to make any new friends
at school yet?

Yes, I made a new friend,
so get off my back.

Well, who is it?

My teacher. I asked her to help me
with homework,

and she practically did it for me.

That's why I have time to colour.

What? I did a good thing.
All the kids hate her and now I don't.

I think she's great. And if she keeps
helping me like she did today,

I could become an artist.

- Wonderful.
- Wanna colour?

I don't think so.

Too girly for you?

Yeah.

Yet he doesn't mind crying like a baby.
Go figure.

- Oh.
- Sorry. I was on my way out.

Hey, do you have a date?

No, just meeting a friend.
Late-night coffee, that kind of thing.

What kind of thing?

- It's not Shana, okay?
- Whatever.

- Yeah, whatever.
- I can't help it.

I don't see her enough, and I resent
you spending time together.

Why do you two
have to be friends anyway?

Okay, for one, you encouraged me
to make friends with Shana.

No. What I said was,
Dad had a nutty idea.

You didn't have to jump on it.

Two, why are you wasting time
worrying about me talking to Shana

when there are plenty of guys
who aren't your best friend

talking to her day and night,
at work, at school, at her apartment?

Think about it.
I'm not your competition.

And three,
you have nothing to worry about.

The girl loves you, man.

- I don't know.
- No, she does.

That's why she traded hours with
some guy so she could get off early.

- Good night, John.
- Good night, Shana.

[SIGHS]

I never meant to make you jealous.

- Who, me? Jealous?
- Uh, yeah.

Well, okay, but don't do it anymore.

So tell me.

It's just hard to describe.
I don't know.

A tunnel with a white light
at the end of it?

No. No, actually, it was something

I've never heard
anyone else talk about.

Okay. It's not gonna make
any sense.

That's okay.

I saw

a series of pictures of myself.

Was it like your life
passing before you?

Yeah. But the good pictures
moved on,

and the bad pictures turned to dust.

Oh.

And then I saw pictures
of my father.

But things I could never have seen
in my life.

The Colonel in combat.

The Colonel saving a man's life.

The Colonel putting a bicycle together
for me under the Christmas tree.

The Colonel going
into the hospital room

to see my mom when I was born.

I know it sounds crazy.
The crazy part was it went on.

I saw pictures of my grandfather
and my great-grandfather

and my great-great grandfather
and on back into time.

Men doing good.

Men being kind.

Men working hard helping others.

Men struggling through their tears.

Men laughing
and celebrating being men.

And even though
they weren't men that I knew,

I knew that they were my family,
connected through the generations,

not by our sins or our mistakes,

but through our strengths.

And I felt myself filling up
with all this goodness.

And suddenly I woke up
feeling stronger than ever,

better than ever, more confident
and secure than ever.

Because we are all the good things

that all those who have gone
before us are,

and all the bad things fall away.

That's so beautiful.

- Any more?
- I was left with this feeling,

maybe because
of the generational connection,

this feeling that there is...

There's no greater reward
than being a good parent.

I mean, if nothing else,

I've done my best to be a good father.
That's a spectacular feeling.

It's a well-deserved feeling.

Soap.

And it floats.
I mean, who thought of that?

I'm sure I don't know.

I have always wanted to work
with Habitat for Humanity.

- They do such great work.
- I was hoping you could teach me

some practical skills
so I can contribute more.

Well, I'd be happy to teach
my daughters anything I know.

Which doesn't include trigonometry.

No, no trigonometry.

- Have you got your homework done?
- I finished it at school.

Good for you.

But don't ask your teacher
to do it for you again, okay?

Well, things are practically
back to normal.

What do you mean by "practically"?

You missed a little something
under your lip.

- Very funny.
- That was funny.

Simon's a funny guy.
And a smart guy.

And an excellent crier.

- You've been crying?
- Well, we both have.

It wasn't a big deal.
Matt hurt my feelings.

You know, we cried,
we laughed, we made up.

Good for you guys.
