You know, that mariachi look almost works on him.

Well, it certainly works on you.

What are you talking about? It's my best suit.

I'm getting ready for our big weekend. What big weekend?

Andrew's going to be out of town and makes it a big weekend.

No 2 a .m. feedings, no diaper rounds, man. It's going to be better than a

bachelor party.

That's no big stretch.

No big deal, man. It's like I got a little bit sick.

That's Guerrero.

I wonder if he gives away a pack of salted nuts with each illegal plane he

sells.

We're about to find out.

Hello, gentlemen.

I was in Linguini. Ah, fresco. Did you bring me dessert?

Sure did.

I got $250 ,000.

Did you know that banks only offer 20 %?

You try to buy a King Air with no restricted market, this is beautiful.

The guy's going to repeat the whole deal I paid for it.

It's too easy. It's criminal. I actually feel kind of guilty.

You'll get over it.

So, uh, what do you say we start at Club Cubana for a little Mac and Moodle

Merlot appetizer?

Then the segue to Bix for that Atlantic char there.

Joe, look at the bartender.

It really kind of looks like Jimmy Reichardt. Because it is Jimmy

Impossible. Reichardt's buried in witness protection.

Call for backup.

So are we going to deal or what? Let's do it.

To the door!

Check those bodies and pay with the money.

Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe.

How about that?

Sayonara, baby.

Killed everybody. Why didn't he kill me?

Maybe because he's just back from the den himself.

Was that adrenaline jag you got working there, Bubba?

Yeah, I'll take a double decaf with a couple of tranquilizers.

I'm telling you now, she had me. I mean, dead to rights, I was gone.

Well, Evan, you did exactly what they taught you at the academy in those

situations. You're supposed to close your eyes, look like you're invisible,

kiss your ass goodbye.

All right, run it down for us. All right.

Okay, we got your basic San Francisco mob chart here.

When our shooter, Jimmy Reichert, was under boss.

All the guys up here were in charge.

Jimmy got collared. He turned government witness.

He put all the boys from here up into jail, leaving the boys from here down to

battle it out for control.

That's when our buddy Ray Getz took over, huh?

Exactly right.

Russia did four years in federal lockup before he went into the witness

protection program.

Nobody's seen him till today.

Okay, so he didn't kill Evan, and he didn't take the money.

Something wonky is going on here.

I'll run down all the old files on Richard. You and I'll run down Ray Getz

the morning. All right.

Let's go to work, guys.

Oh, Mac, I'm going to get started. In honor of you letting me stay at your

this time, I'm going to say that anything that happens tonight is on me.

huh? Yeah. Well, Bubba, you've got business right now.

Oh. Hi,

honey. Hello.

Hi, Inger.

Hey, darling. See ya.

Hello. It's fine. We finally organized for the trip, I think.

Two favorite girls. Hey, you want to hold her? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

done my time on Baby Hill. Oh, she's so sweet, isn't she?

A few tears now and again, but what baby doesn't cry?

Dominguez's baby doesn't cry.

JJ was a crier.

He was a screamer. Must have got dehydrated three or four times. Why?

You know, sweetheart?

What? First time we're going to be apart since Lucia was born.

Is it really?

Nice try, Joe.

Honey, have a good time. Okay.

I love you. Okay, bye -bye. Be good, honey.

Bye, Anchor. Bye -bye. Hey, you know, it's not going to be any fun here

We're going to be working this tape day, and now we're going to go to bed late,

get up early, you know, file reports, doing all that thing, paperwork.

She's gone now.

Pace yourself, Bubba. Pace yourself.

What do you say we have dinner at the Cypress Club? Then maybe check out Bond

and Jacobo. Hey, that's not a bad idea. Oh, we could try the new joint, the

Shark Club.

Yeah, I've been hearing about that. I'll ask Nick if he wants to run along with

it. All right, hurry up.

Nick? What?

What?

He's, uh... He was... He's with a... He's got a chick in there?

Yeah.

Well, all right.

I thought I raised you with better manners, Nash.

Where you've been kicking doors down so long, you forgot how to knock.

Well, I'm sorry, Nick. I didn't know you were entertaining.

That makes two of us.

So who is she?

Her name is Jenny.

What do you want, anyway?

We were just going to go out. Thought you might like to join us, but I guess

champagne, Charlie.

Hi.

Oh, hi.

This is nice.

Nice. This is Jenny.

Pleasure.

Joe Dominguez. Joe, I've heard all about you. Gosh, it's great to meet you two

finally.

Well, we love to stay and chat some, but you know how it is.

She's heard all about us.

Yeah, but why haven't we heard about her?

If I had a babe like that, I'd be territorial too, man.

Hello.

Hello. It's me.

Hello. It's me.

Oh.

Hi. Hi, sweetheart. How you doing?

Oh, we're just hanging out in the National Department. Why?

Pneumonia?

What do you mean there's been a change of plans?

I've canceled my trip. I have to go to Stockton, yeah?

Uh, uh, uh, uh, Stockholm?

No, Stockton. It's near Sacramento, and I have to be gone for at least three

days. Can't you take her with you?

Darling, my aunt is very sick. Do you want the baby to get sick, too?

Oh, of course not. But, uh, what about your sister?

Would you want to go stay with Karen?

Well, I might if I was just eating form and then sleeping 14 hours a day. You

told me you were going to be so lonely without her.

I will, but I'm working.

Are we not working?

Oh, yes, we're always working.

Joe, my Aunt Sheshten might not make it without me. What is more important, huh?

Is this a trick question?

You two are going to be just fine.

Oh, yeah, yeah, I can cover the case, and that'll give you plenty of time for

the baby.

Or vice versa. Here, let me show you how the trick works.

Wow!

How did she do that?

Just like that. Now look, I really have to go. It's a very long drive.

I know you're nervous about this, but this is going to be a wonderful bonding

experience for you and your daughter.

No doubt.

What is that?

What is this?

You never heard of Hamilton and the Rock? I'm the Rock?

What do they do for a day job?

That's what you want, man, with these guys. They got sold -out concerts, they

got direct -to -video songbooks, man, they got seven -year -old records.

Get out of here.

The latest thing, we still can't go to sleep without it.

Oh, speaking of Lucia, how's she doing?

So far, so good.

Maybe a piece of gas.

All right, now look, how do you want to play this when we get to get?

I go in there and talk to him, you get out of the car with the baby.

Hey, it's a talk, not a takedown, man. Let's see her come in.

Maybe she'll charm Gibson into telling us everything we want to know.

Yeah, or if she's anything like her mother, she'll intimidate the hell out

him and he'll tell us everything he knows. Hey, you got that real, brother.

Good morning, Ray.

What the hell was this?

What, you never heard of Take Your Daughter to Work Day?

Uh, speaking of taking your daughter, uh... Oh, yeah.

Say goodbye.

Bye -bye.

Yeah, thank you.

Uh, gentlemen, drinks at the bar.

On you.

Hold on, we'll get you in there right... Oh, God.

That's who we saw last night.

Two cappuccinos.

Jimmy Reichert.

Looks like he's out of retirement.

Where'd you see him?

He killed the Guerrero brother, all three of them.

Did a hell of a job.

Doesn't look like he's lost his debt.

I spent a lot of money and time looking for Mr. Reichardt.

Do you know where I could find him?

Well, if you're telling the truth, maybe he'll find you first.

Unless he's working for you.

Well, if you knew anything about our life, you'd know that Mr. Reichardt

never come back to me.

Or make amends for what he did to the family. Give me a break.

You don't give a damn about the family as long as you win.

Whoa, definitely took after your mother's side of the family.

Bud's side.

Whoa.

You know, Ray, you've been doing pretty good for yourself.

Everything's nice and tidy.

Nobody's on your ass, except for me.

And we both know that's only a matter of time.

Get out!

Take them out!

Oh, and the whirlwind blows up the little Malguitas Canyon.

I'm not the only one that thinks you hired Reichardt.

What'd I mean?

Are we done?

You got one dead guy works for you, and two dead Guerrero soldiers trying to

kill you because they thought you hired Reichardt to kill their bosses.

Doesn't seem very done to me.

Oh, in fact, it seems kind of messy.

With the potential to get a hell of a lot messier.

Hey, guys, listen. I was just an innocent bystander, okay?

Well, leave me.

Tell me the truth.

Did you hire Reichert?

No.

Man says no.

Then get out of town.

Since when do you set my agenda, Bridges?

Since now.

Okay.

Okay. Is that important to you? I'll tell you what.

I'll disappear for 48 hours.

Happy now?

Static.

She is so pretty.

Six months old with great age.

Yeah, I like that age.

You have any children?

Oh, my boy's all grown up. He goes to Florida State.

Oh, yeah.

So, um, you're from Florida, huh?

Uh, Pompey.

Why did you decide to, uh...

Moved to San Francisco.

Oh, I was tired of the summers, the heat, the humidity.

And I guess it was time for a change in my life.

Hmm.

Ever spend any time in San Francisco prior to this?

Actually, I did, yes.

When I was about 20, I went to art school here.

Oh.

Fell in love with the place.

Which art school?

All right, that's enough.

She's not on trial here.

Don't mind them, Jenny.

This questioning thing, it's a disease. They can't help it.

I don't mind.

I'd be curious about me.

I really understand.

Nash, we have to talk about a couple of things.

We're all ears.

Go ahead.

Jenny and I have decided to travel to Europe for three months.

Isn't that great?

We're selling Mr. Woody.

What? He's temperamental. And plus, I'm not going to be around to care for him.

You don't take care of him now anyways. I mean, the trainer and the groom take

care of him. And besides, I'll be here. I'm selling the horse.

Nash, you can't do this, okay?

What the hell I can't? It's my horse.

You know, I've always believed in the power of good timing and which you...

Excuse me.

you're going to say well i know this may surprise you nick but uh i think it

sounds great fell the horse go for it what jenny seems like a nice

lady you've worked on the docks for what 37 years never had time to travel

do it son i can't tell you how happy it makes me to hear you say

this you guys man you don't know anything about this woman you don't

you guys know anything about this woman. Joe,

they say traveling is an elixir.

Oh, who did that?

Here's to Europe.

May all your dreams come true.

God bless you, son.

I'm not toasting to that.

Neither is Lucia.

Look, I know when somebody's up to something, this woman definitely

Well, first off, you can call her Jenny instead of that woman.

Okay, and you can start calling her Mom.

How about that? Big news.

Reichardt surfaced again.

Really?

Yeah, and he just hit Billy Fawn, the photographer.

Yeah, and for bonus points, we've also got a double homicide over at Sardino's

Hunting Fish Club, the smack capital of the East Embarcadero. Yeah, and both

hits are a dead ringer for Reichardt's M .O.

What's the word on the street?

There's no word. Everybody's freaking out. Everything was calm until this. No

open issues, no pending battles, nothing.

Why would Reichardt hit members of three different crime families?

If it's personal?

Looking at the files, there are some personal connections.

Bresher did porn deals with Fong, and he skirmished with the Sardino family over

heroin because heroin is anathema to these mob guys.

All right, let's say these kids aren't random.

Let's say he has selected targets.

People he knew, guys he worked with.

Well, that would explain why Evan is still with us.

Yeah, but it doesn't give us a motive.

This guy has got some sort of twisted agenda.

And until we figure out what it is, it's going to be damn hard to catch him.

Guess what, guys?

We've got Reichert's wife.

The marshals are bringing her over to T .I. as we speak.

Tell them we're on our way. Hold down the fort.

Uh, yo, Nash.

What?

What do I got?

What is that?

Her spoon.

You stole my spoon?

Get it back.

Joe, that spoon belonged to my mother. Look, I just want to get her prints.

Joe.

You got something to do with it.

Distractors I can play with? Give me your keys.

What? Your keys.

Joe, listen. Let me ask you something.

If Nick wasn't telling Mr. Woody, would you be having to get her friends? Would

we be having this conversation?

Yes, ma 'am.

The only reason he's telling Mr. Woody is to get money to spend on her because

that's what that woman, excuse me, Jenny, is in it for.

Look, if you're uncomfortable and you don't want me to back off, you don't

me to pursue it, just say the word and I'll back off, okay?

Just for Nick's sake, I hope you're wrong.

Give me the keys.

Give her something to distract her.

What?

Give her your tie. We've got to be able to drive. Give her my tie. You know what

that costs?

Hi, Jill.

Inspector Bridges and Dominguez.

Yeah, I remember.

Thanks for coming.

Wasn't my story.

You know what's been going on?

Jimmy's killed seven people in the last two days.

Who were they?

Bad guys.

Various crime families around town.

Well, then it sounds like he was doing you a favor, huh, Inspector?

Well, the question is, why the sudden interest in civic duty?

Maybe you should just be grateful, huh?

Talk to me, Jill.

Jimmy's been diagnosed with terminal cancer. He's got six months, two years,

depending on who you talk to.

Where is he?

This isn't helping. This isn't helping anybody.

I don't care.

Think very carefully about it, Jim.

If you don't work with me, I will take you in for aiding and abetting.

Go for it.

We will.

Maybe she's right. I mean, these guys don't major droop bags. I mean, you

this guy's doing us a favor.

Yeah, until the first citizen takes a bullet.

Uh, FIU, Inspector Cortez. This is Nash.

This is Mrs. Reicher. It's on her way in.

Make sure you put her in holding.

Don't let her get processed or chipped.

Okay, you got it, Chief.

What is that?

Hey, you're a baby crying. What is that?

Not yet.

Yeah, well, we're up to three on the baby front here. It seems that Vice made

sweep of all the transient hotels in the area, and we're babysitting until

social services gets here.

Hey, man, we need some diapers.

Yeah, we need diapers.

Can you guys pick them up, maybe?

Got any extra diapers?

Still looking.

All right, I'll tell you what. I'll stop and pick up some diapers on the way.

I'm sorry, Chief.

I cannot listen to that any longer.

Careful, man. You know how hard it is to find baby music on 8 -track?

So,

want to take care of the baby or get the diapers?

Kind of like a Sophie's Choice for you, isn't it?

Exactly. I'll take Lucia. Okay. Come on, Angel.

There we go.

Daddy will be right back.

Oh, now, please don't melt down on me.

It's been a while, but I'm sure I can remember.

This is quite the picture.

You wouldn't shoot a man with a baby, would you?

Well, not unless you force me to.

I won't, but leave me.

What do you want?

Cut Jill loose.

She's not part of this.

Well, actually, I could make a pretty good case against her as an accessory.

Unless you want to turn yourself in.

No problem. She walked.

You know, somehow I don't think that's going to fly.

Oh, yeah?

And I guess you don't really care for her that much, do you?

That makes you mad, doesn't it?

Yeah, that makes you mad. But you can't shoot me now, can you?

Because that would ruin your whole plan.

You don't have a clue what's going on here, do you, Nash?

Oh, I think I do.

Well, at first I thought it was revenge against the guys that put you into the

witness protection program.

And then I talked to Jill and she told me you were dying.

I realized it's about redemption.

You know, killing people, even bad people, ain't gonna get you into heaven,

Bubba.

But you're not the guy who's in judgment.

No, but I am the one that's going to stop you.

You think so, huh?

Oh,

it's okay.

The bad man's gone.

Well, at least this time I didn't miss anything, huh? Oh, no, you didn't miss

much. You know, she wasn't crying until you came back.

Oh, has he been torturing you, huh?

It's easy. You just take these things out there like that. See, like that.

Don't you read the instructions? I read the instructions. There's three easy

steps. Hell, Inger does it in only two.

So, uh, what do we got here? Map time at the SIU? Shh, shh, shh.

You realize how abrasive your voice can be sometimes?

Excuse me.

I had no idea we were running a daycare center here.

It's a problem.

It's broken.

Looks all right to me.

All right, now then.

We know why Reichert is on a shooting spree, but we're no closer to stopping

him. Yeah, but how do you stop a guy who's got a death wish?

I don't think he's got a death wish, Harv. I think it's quite the opposite.

He wants to make up for his past by killing all the slimeballs he used to

with. But he's been very careful about not getting killed himself.

So why don't we just sit on his mobster friends until he shows up?

Potential list is like a nightmare.

What do we do then?

Well, we got his wife.

We'll use her as our bait.

Thank you.

Okay, you're free to go.

You're not going to charge me?

Nope. But Nash wanted me to give you a little message.

Yeah, what's that?

Well, it seems that your husband's made quite a few enemies in the past 24

hours. Once you walk out that door, you're on your own.

It's fine by me.

Have a nice day.

Make sure she gets out okay, will you?

Hey, Bubba. I got the results back on those prints in case you're interested.

And? Well, it seems Ginny was arrested for shoplifting in 91.

Ooh.

So we got ourselves a dangerous shoplifter.

There's more.

Ed? Okay, check out her name.

Her real name.

Ruthie Grossman.

I guess the Morgan Fairchild was being used right then, huh?

Yeah, okay. So we got a really, really dangerous shoplifter that changed her

name.

There's more.

Will you cut to the chase?

Okay. She's been married three times that I know of.

Husband's age, 81.

Income, seven figures.

Medium lifespan after marrying her, two years, five months.

So what you're saying is that her husband lived an average of eight years

than the average American male.

You're reaching, Bubba.

Well, maybe, but I talked to this P .I. in Palm Beach, and he was hired by the

late husband's children to investigate the death, right?

He thinks she's a black widow, you know, one of those chicks that marries guys

for their money and then... Is there any evidence that she killed her former

husbands?

Just outlasted him.

Or maybe she's smarter than the police. That has happened, you know.

What do you want to do?

I'll talk to Nick.

Okay. There you go.

Nick!

Hi.

Uh... Where's Nick?

Oh, he just went to the door for a minute.

You hungry?

Uh, no.

You know, it's probably better that Nick's not here right now, actually.

Uh -oh.

Does that mean I'm about to be interrogated again?

I'm serious. Let's just get everything out in the open before Nick gets back,

and then I'll ask you to please never mention it again.

I'll tell you what I want, Ruthie.

I want to know that your feelings for Nick are sincere.

I've been married before, and yes, I'm married for money.

Comfort used to be very important to me.

But at this stage of my life, I am certainly not looking to have anyone

me.

What I am looking for, and I would like, is a companion.

Your father is a dear,

sweet man.

He tells these wonderful stories.

He's a hell of a card player.

And he does just about everything else.

Great.

I've fallen in love with him.

Do you blame me?

Hardly.

Nash, I never said I was a perfect person. I certainly have not lived a

life, but I would never do anything to hurt your dad.

Jenny, Nick isn't the wealthy eccentric that you might think he is.

Oh, the eccentric part.

You got that right.

There isn't an estate that comes along with the racehorse.

The racehorse is the estate.

And every dime that Nick has goes out to stall number 241 at Golden Gate Fields.

Eating oats.

That's it.

So that's what you think.

You think it's about money, don't you?

I put it this way.

If your intentions with Nick are anything but romantic,

you should watch yourself.

Perfecto. Fox, Fox, got nothing on me.

All right, mija, get ready to chow down.

Open wide.

What?

Lucia?

Where's Lucia?

Inspector Lee.

Yeah. Joe, my freak.

What? Oh, take a message.

No, it's Inger.

What? It's Inger.

Hello, Inger? Guess what?

Unchecked and it's better.

I'm coming home early.

What? Huh?

Oh, great.

Oh, well, how soon?

Oh, fine.

You know, overworked.

The baby?

Oh, uh, she's great.

She's sleeping, I think.

I can't wait to see her. You too. Yeah.

Oh, great, honey. Well, we'll see you when you get here.

Bye.

Oh, my God, I lost the baby. I lost the baby! Joey, relax.

What? Lucy is right over there.

Come on, come on.

That's not her.

Is it? The lady from social services came and took...

Call social services. Tell them I'm on my way home.

Hello?

Hello?

Peppy? Joe.

Nice hair.

What are you doing here?

Saving the world from administrative chaos.

What are you doing here?

My baby's missing.

Check your hands, Joe.

Oh, no, not this baby.

My baby, what happened is somebody from your department came down and was

supposed to pick up two babies, and I accidentally walked off with my baby,

Well, congratulations.

I didn't realize that you and Nash had adopted. I think that's very courageous.

No, no, it's not Nash's baby. It's mine and Inger's. You know Inger, my wife?

You still have sex with women?

Occasionally, Pepe.

You and Nash are such a unique couple.

Pepe, will you please? Checking. Here we go.

Oh, here it is.

Your baby must be with Camille Jackson, one of our social workers.

She's on her way to deliver her to a foster home in Los Gatos.

Los Gatos?

No need to worry. Camille is one of our more capable caseworkers.

Think of it as very cheap daycare.

Jeffrey, I need to find my baby, and I need to find her right now.

Okay. Okay,

Jim.

I'll call the family, and I'll have her back as soon as possible.

Would that be acceptable?

Is that the fastest way possible?

Yes. Then that'll do.

Mess with a man's baby, meet the man, I always say.

Look, take this baby and make sure she gets back to where she belongs, okay?

Okay. Bye -bye. Call me as soon as you find out anything.

Yeah.

One sec.

Let me just go ahead.

Let's go.

Yeah, we got her.

I'm fine, baby.

I'll go right.

You idiot.

Bye, baby. Get out of here. Go.

Go. Go. Run. Right, girl.

Well,

that was nice work, sister.

Son of a bitch. Bring her with you.

Hey, Nick.

You going somewhere?

I was until you got involved.

Well, um, maybe you want to hear the whole story.

You had no right, son.

Even though you meant well, and I'm sure you did.

Even though you were probably right about Jenny, I'm sure you were, you had

right to interfere.

Well,

Nick, I just thought I was doing... You don't get it, do you?

Get what?

I had a chance to travel the world with a fun, beautiful woman.

Well, I gotta believe it.

She's gone. It had to be about the money.

Hey.

Don't you think that I know that?

Hell, I'm 70 years old.

I want to have some fun while I'm still...

young enough to enjoy it. Not to mention remembering.

Sorry, Dad.

You should have come to me first, son.

Some things in life you never get a second chance.

How about that one?

See, that guy got up this morning and he looked out and he says, gosh, what a

beautiful day.

I think I'll just go for a bike ride.

And about 30 minutes later, he got caught in the crossfire when your

decided to shoot mob accountant John Rizzo.

Your husband walked away.

That guy wasn't so lucky.

His wife and children are at the hospital right now praying that he makes

through the night Now I'm gonna say that that's not a righteous shoot No matter

what the motive is Jill Your husband

has already put a sizable dent in the power structure of the various families

Now when the survivors move to consolidate their power More innocent

like this guy right here are gonna get hurt

So come on, Jill. Do the right thing.

Tell us where he is. I'll tell you where he is. You're going to kill him.

We don't want to kill anybody.

They don't understand.

He's just... Who's next, Jill?

Did he tell you who he's going after next?

Get, Ray, get.

I don't understand. Am I asking too much? Is that what it is? Am I asking

much?

The man is walking around town like a tourist, gunning down made guys, and

you're telling me you can't find him.

Relax, Bubba.

You don't know it yet, but we're the cavalry.

Where's Ged?

Haven't seen him.

Jimmy Reiser is on his way over here to kill you, Bob.

I'm gonna ask you one more time, where is he?

He's on the roof.

That's very good.

Do I pay you to think?

I thought you promised that you're gonna let the cops handle this. Excuse me.

I swear to God, the next word's out of your mouth. Hey, boss!

I just found that bastard Reiser, and he's dead!

What are you waiting for?

Get out of here.

Find the bomb. Move.

It's a hell of a view, Ray.

I'm going to miss it.

But then again, so are you.

If you're going to do it, do it. I think I'll take a minute.

Right, Jared.

It's over.

You think so? Put it down.

Drop the gun. Come on.

Shoot him, Bridget.

Shoot him!

You made your point.

It ends here.

You and your partner put your guns away, or I'll kill him.

Right now, I'll kill him.

Don't!

I have a feeling you were going to kill him anyway.

What was that?

Son of a bitch.

Why didn't you just kill me?

Are you going to die, Bubba?

It's gonna be on God's time, not yours.

You shot me!

He shot me!

I can't believe you shot me!

Stop whining.

You're welcome, Ray.

Step on it, man.

Bubba, I was doing 65 in the school zone.

I gotta get there before Ingrid does.

You'll be there in 15 minutes. Relax, will you? That's easy for you to say,

You didn't almost ease the baby after you were entrusted by your beloved wife.

You're right. First of all, I don't have a beloved wife. And secondly, I didn't.

That's it, huh?

You're not even going to try to make me feel better? I can get you to the church

on time. I cannot ease your conscience.

She's beautiful.

No, she's really beautiful.

How'd that happen?

Well, I gotta think it's her mother's looks and my sense of humor.

Oh, yeah. Speaking of mommy, you gonna tell her about baby's day out?

Gee, let me think.

You gonna find out?

How's she gonna do that? I'm not saying anything.

You're not saying anything.

But she is not talking.

Mm -hmm. Do yourself a favor.

Tell her the truth.

Pick your time, pick your spot, but tell her.

No!

How was the trip?

Gloriously uneventful.

How was the babysitting?

Oh, just the same.

How was that cashed in? I really missed that lady.

It looked like everything went perfect.

Oh, sure did.

Right, Nashman?

Oh, boy.

But we're happy to have you home. Yeah, yeah.

Darling, we missed you so much.

But daddy took good care of you, yes?
