Well?

DAVID:
Mine, mine.

No, I don't think so. Mine, eventually.

It's got a lot of potential, this space.

Oh, yeah,
the potential's overwhelming.

We can all see
the overwhelming potential.

- But you're going away next year.
- What are you saying?

Well, I'm saying that even if the room
is finished before then,

why should you get it?

Well, because Robbie
said I could have it.

Well, maybe it wasn't Robbie's
to give away.

If Robbie's paying rent,
the room should be his.

I think the room's big enough
for Matt and Robbie.

I still think you should take it.

If you want to be by yourself so much,
maybe you should take it.

Well, I think you've all got
plenty of time to fight over it.

ANNIE: I just said that I'd have
it finished by next year.

Next year is just months away.

What are you saying, you don't think
it'll be done by January?

Uh...

Hey, what's going on?

- Mary.
DAVID: Oh, yeah.

Mary tells me
she's here permanently.

- Permanently?
- Yup.

- That's the best news I've ever heard.
ERIC: It is?

Because I was wondering
what prompted her decision.

I hadn't heard anything
from the Colonel.

Oh, well, they went on George's
school campout this weekend.

And?

We don't have to know
what prompted your decision.

Whatever it was,
that's the past, this is now.

Now my daughter's here.
That's what's important.

Well, then...

Then great.

[ANNIE CHUCKLES]

Did you know she was thinking about
coming home?

No, but it's a wonderful,
wonderful surprise.

You're not the least bit curious
why Mary showed up

on our doorstep unannounced?

She doesn't have to announce,
she's family.

Besides, we went through
this very same thing with Lucy,

- and it all worked out.
- Did it?

Of course it did. We have our
whole family back together again.

Don't you wanna know
what happened with Wilson?

I'm sure she'll tell us eventually.

Maybe she's here to tell us
they got married.

Great.

If she's here permanently,
that means the two of--

No, the three of them,
plan to live here.

- So?
- So?

Or maybe they broke up.

I mean, it's strange that she left
while the Colonel was out of town.

I don't think it's all that strange.

Now, I'm gonna go
and make Mary's favourite dinner:

Pot roast and apple pie.

What's wrong with this picture?

I'm back.
Where should I put my stuff?

Guess you didn't hear.
I don't wanna get in the way,

but where should I put this stuff?

- Where should I--?
LUCY: We heard you.

It's just, well,
there's not a lot of room in here.

Not that we don't wish
there was room in here, but...

It's not a problem.

I just need a place to throw my stuff
for a while. I can sleep anywhere.

- "For a while"?
- What does that mean?

It means she either broke up
with Wilson or she's marrying Wilson.

- What do you think?
- I don't know. It doesn't matter.

It's none of our business.

I want to know.

We all want to know.

And we all will know, in time,
when she's ready to tell us.

- What?
- I also want an apology

for all that stuff she did last year
when she got kicked out.

I don't think you're going to get that.

I don't think any of us
are going to get that.

I think we just have to accept Mary
for Mary.

Doesn't that make you
just a little bit angry?

Why would that make me angry?

Well, here you are, the good daughter,
always trying to do the right thing,

even when it means
giving up the man you love

and the college you want to go to,

and no one made any big deal about it
when you came home.

And you had to explain everything.

And you got nothing. Nothing.

- Can I help with your bags?
- Thanks.

Oh, there's no room up there.

- So where are you going?
- I don't know exactly.

I'd let you stay in my room,
but I only have the one bed now. Sorry.

Oh, it's okay. I can sleep anywhere,
I just want to put my things away.

Good luck. Anything else?

So you're moving back home,
just like that?

No explanation?

When I'm ready to tell everyone
about Wilson, I will.

What happened to you guys
getting married?

Are you married?

You know what, forget it. I'm not even
that interested in you and Wilson.

- Tell me what's going on with just you.
- What do you mean?

Well, I mean, when you left,
you had a few problems.

And you've seen me since then. This
is not the first time I've been home.

- Yeah, but those were just visits.
- And?

And now you're back for good, unless
you got married or something, right?

- So you do wanna know about Wilson.
- I want to know, what are you hiding?

Do you want me to help you
take that stuff upstairs?

There's no room for me upstairs.

So where are you going
with that stuff?

I'm not sure.

Maybe I'll move out
to the garage apartment.

We've both seen apartments,
and that's not an apartment.

That's just menopause
with a hammer.

- What?
- Change of life.

Could we just talk about
something else?

Something like
why you're back here?

How about something like
where can I sleep?

That can't be as interesting
as why you're back here.

I figure you and Wilson
either got married or broke up.

And I'm leaning towards broke up.

Let me just dump my stuff
in your closet

and I'll sleep downstairs
on the couch.

That sounds reasonable,
and yet, walk this way.

Enter.

MARY: You still have Ruthie's
Hello Kitty stuff?

Well, at first, we found it a threat
to our masculinity.

- But then...
- Then what?

Well, it makes this part of our lives
feel temporary

in a comforting sort of way,
you know?

No, I don't know. What--?
What are you talking about?

By the time Robbie moves
into the garage apartment,

I'll probably be an old man.

But Hello Kitty makes us think
this living situation is temporary,

almost elusive.

As if this all could change
at any moment.

- Could I just see the closet?
- Yeah.

Whoa.

- What am I supposed to say to her?
- "Her" who?

Mary.

- About?
- About me.

What's there to say?

You know why she's back.

She's broken up with Wilson and came
home. She's not in love with him.

What makes you think
she's not in love with Wilson?

She's not with Wilson.

Unless...

What do you know
that I don't know?

- That this is no time to make a move.
- Because?

- Just go with because.
- I don't wanna go with because.

I don't know anything.
But if Mary is the same old Mary,

she could still be in love with Wilson,

but just not capable
of making a commitment.

So she broke up with him
when the pressure was on.

And that's a big difference
from not being in love with the guy.

- So I don't have to say anything.
- About?

No one.

- "No one"?
- I mean, nothing.

You didn't say "nothing,"
you said "no one."

I say we call Wilson.

Find out what happened
from the horse's mouth.

I'm sticking with she'll tell us
when she wants us to know.

Stop. Stop being the good girl.

It's getting you nowhere.
Mary's nothing like you.

We wanted you to tell us
what happened with your fianc?,

because if you told us,
we knew we could believe you.

But even if Mary did tell us,
I don't know if we could believe her.

No, I think Mary's changed.

And if she hadn't changed,
she wouldn't have come back here.

We don't know
if she's moved back here.

Maybe she's married.

She would just call us and tell us
she got married, if she got married.

Maybe she's getting married,

and she just came home
to break the news to Mom and Dad,

and to stay here until the big day.

You think?

Maybe she's gonna live here
until the wedding,

unless there's already been
a wedding.

And maybe he's moving back
to Glenoak and so she is too,

and they're just gonna live together
without getting married,

because that's what they've
secretly been doing in New York.

We don't know her.
We don't know who she is,

or where she's been
or what she's done.

She's our sister.
She's been at our grandparent's

and she was working
at a homeless shelter.

What's the big mystery?

The big mystery is why she's no longer
working at the homeless shelter,

why the Colonel and Ruth didn't tell us
she was coming home,

and who she really is
outside of being our sister.

- Gosh. Hey.
- Hey.

I just put my things
in Sam and David's room

- so I wouldn't be in anyone's way.
- Oh, honey,

you're not in anyone's way.
Don't think like that.

You know what I think
we should do?

I think we should finish
that garage apartment.

Make it really nice for you.
There's plenty of room in there.

It's almost like a studio,
like Matt and John's old place.

Well, I thought Robbie
was moving in there.

I'm gonna let him stay in Matt's room
and not pay rent.

Robbie needs to save his money.

And he and Matt
really like living together.

And I desperately want you to be
happy now that you're home again.

So let's go take a look
at what we need to do

to make you feel really comfortable.

I'm going down to the church
to finish my sermon.

What's it on? "The Prodigal Son"?

I didn't really have that topic in mind,
until now.

It's a good one. You've used it a lot.

Why, yes, I have.
It's one of my favourites.

Let me ask you something.

Was the prodigal son married
when he came home?

Is Mary ma--? Ma--? Ma--?

You can't even say it, can you?

- What do you know?
- Nothing.

But I bet Wilson knows plenty.
You have his number?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, we all have his number.

WILSON:
Hey.

Billy said for you to wake him up
when you got home.

- Maybe it's not such a good idea.
- Thanks for watching him.

Well, with his grandparents
so far away, I'm happy to fill in.

Not that I'm old enough
to be a grandparent.

Please, let me pay you something.

No, no, it's not necessary.
It's my pleasure.

You're the best landlord
a guy could have.

You're the best tenant
a landlord could have.

And such a good father.

- Good night.
- Good night.

I forgot to mention.
You had quite a few phone calls.

I let the machine pick up,
so I couldn't help but hear.

- No, that's okay.
- If you wanna talk...

- Thanks.
- Anything you wanna tell me?

- No.
- Need any help picking out china?

- Good night.
- See you.

[BEEP]

RUTHIE [ON MACHINE]:
Wilson, this is Ruthie. How you doing?

How's Billy? I thought you might
wanna know that Mary's home.

Okay, that's it.

Oh, you got any idea
why she's home?

Call me and disguise your voice.
Say you're Burt.

That's the only guy
who ever called me, and--

MARY: Who are you talking to?
- No one.

[BEEP]

LUCY: Wilson,
I hope you don't mind if I call you.

This is Lucy Camden.

I just wanted to see how you are

and if there's anything
I can do for you.

And honestly,
if there's anything you want to tell me,

because I don't know
if congratulations

or condolences are in order.

Okay, now I feel terrible I called.
I have to go.

[BEEP]

ROBBIE:
Hey, Wilson, this is Robbie.

I know how it is to split up with Mary,
so I know how you're feeling,

because I've been feeling that way
for six months. But I want you to know

that one day, you'll get over her
and meet someone new.

Not that that means anything.

If you're not splitting up
and you're getting married,

that's great, especially for me.

Did I say that out loud?

[BEEP]

MATT:
Wilson, it's Matt.

If you did anything to hurt my sister,
I'll have to hurt you.

The way I figure it,
it was the other way around.

So if you need me
to talk to her or anything,

let me know, and I'll talk to her first.

She doesn't always
make the best decisions,

but I know she really
cares about you and Billy.

But, hey, maybe...

Are you guys married?

[BEEP]

SIMON: It's Simon.
I have no idea why I'm calling

other than we all want to know
what happened to you and Mary.

If you split up, if you got engaged
or possibly married.

I doubt, seriously,
that you'd tell me,

but if you want someone to talk to,
I'm here, until I can get a licence.

[BEEPING]

I'm home, son.

I'm so glad the answering machine
didn't wake you.

It was so loud.

You didn't bring Mary home with you,
did you?

No.

I was hoping you were going to
bring her home with you.

I know.

Go back to sleep.

[PHONE RINGS]

- Hello?
- Is it Mary?

- Back to sleep.
- Hello, reverend.

I'm sorry I called so late.
I hope I didn't wake Billy.

No, it's okay. I went out tonight.

I just got home,
so I woke him up to say good night.

I guess you know why I'm calling.

The same reason that Matt, Lucy,
Simon, Robbie and Ruthie called?

They called too?

- It's okay. It's nice, even.
- We all care about you.

And we care about Mary.

And, look,
I don't know what happened.

I just wanted to say that--

That you can call me anytime if you,
you know,

you need someone to talk to.

Thanks, I appreciate that.
So I guess she got there okay.

Yeah, she got here fine.

Wilson?

I'd like to tell you what's going on,

but I think that's why Mary's there,
to tell you.

Besides, I'm afraid that I might be
the one responsible for everything,

and I don't want you
to be angry with me.

And when you say you're the one
who's responsible for everything,

what everything are we talking about,
exactly?

I wish I could tell you, I really do,
but it has to be Mary.

Goodbye, Reverend Camden.

See what I can do
when I'm inspired?

- Come on, you'll get the hang of it.
- No, Mom, I can't. I am just too tired.

- It's after 11:00 in New York.
- Are you feeling okay?

- I'm fine, I'm just sleepy.
- Why don't you go upstairs

and use my bathroom,
take a nice hot bubble bath?

I'll put the last piece of pie
in the microwave

and bring it up to you
with a big scoop of ice cream.

Please, no, I am still full from dinner.
But I will take you up on the bath.

All right, you go on in.
I'm gonna get a little more done here.

I'm so happy to have you home.
I really missed you.

I missed you too.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Are you going out?

No.

Yes.

No.

Kind of.

Yes.

Well, have a good time.

Do you think we should talk?

- No.
- Why not?

If we don't talk, it's gonna be kind of
awkward around here, isn't it?

It already is.

But in time, that will change.

- Time changes everything.
- What?

No one.

Nothing.

LUCY:
How are they gonna find out?

- Well, Dad could find out.
- How?

- What's going on?
- You tell us.

What do you wanna know?

Are you married?

I'm tired, okay?

Could you just give me a day or so
to readjust

before you start asking me
about my life?

- Why not?
- What was that "why not?"

Are you angry with me
about something?

- No, I'm not angry.
- Look, if you're thinking that I'm here

to try to take Robbie from you,
you're wrong.

Robbie and I are not together.

I thought you were
thinking about getting together.

It's over.
So does that change anything?

- No, that doesn't change anything.
- So you are married?

Robbie just left.

- I didn't ask.
- He looked like he was going out.

- On a date?
- Looked that way.

- I doubt he's dating.
- Why?

Because we just decided
not to date last week.

But you never really did date,
did you?

So it's not like you broke up
or something.

How do you know
we never really dated?

You haven't been here.

Look, I am just going by
what I've been told.

And why don't you just say
what you're angry about?

Just say it and let's get it over with.

- What are you smiling about?
- What are you smiling about?

I'm not smiling.

Have you been washing pots and pans
this whole time?

No, I let them soak.

Oh, it looks like
Mary could be helping you.

It was her favourite dinner.

Yeah, it looks that way,
but, hey, it's Mary.

Yeah, it's Mary.

- Hey. Oh, don't eat that.
- Oh, because that's for me?

- Are you kidding?
- No, it's for Mary.

Oh, big surprise.

Where is Mary? I wanna talk to her.

She went upstairs
to take a bubble bath in our room.

What?

I'm just glad my daughter's home.

What's going on?

Why don't you tell us? I mean,
you make Mary her favourite meal,

and you're killing yourself trying to get
the garage apartment finished,

and now she's upstairs in your bathtub
taking a bubble bath.

- So?
SIMON: So is this how it's gonna be?

The prodigal daughter returns?

What is wrong with
my welcoming Mary home

in the same way that I would welcome
any of you after you'd been away?

I went away, and-- Never mind.

- I get what's going on here.
- I'm sure.

Care to share your insights?

Why don't you let us have
a few minutes to ourselves?

Yeah, Mary may not be
the prodigal daughter,

but they are very much

- the prodigal son's brother.
- You know, I don't feel like a sermon.

No sermon, I just wanna point out
that Mary may be returning home,

but she's confessed nothing.

And I don't think
she's learned very much.

It's a little early
to make that judgement.

I think she owes us an explanation.

And I think her brothers and sisters
think that she owes them an apology.

I don't think she owes us anything
or her brothers and sisters.

We've told her quite a few times
that we wanted her to come home.

Now she's home. She needs us.

- She wants to be with us.
- Did she say that?

- Does she have to say it?
- I think it would be a good start.

I think coming home is a good start.

Okay, let's say it's a good start.
What's a good finish?

She's still incredibly irresponsible

and she seems to have
absolutely no awareness of that.

How are we going to
make her conscious?

Oh, you mean, how are we going to
make her confess?

Here we go.
It's Richard Nixon all over again.

- What?
- I hadn't heard the end of that one.

I beg your pardon?

You didn't think that Nixon
should be pardoned,

because he never said
that he did anything wrong.

- And?
- I love Richard Nixon.

Can we leave him out of this,
and just talk about our daughter, and--

Since when do you love
Richard Nixon?

Since I heard someone saying

that what God is showing us
through parents

is that he loves us
despite the things we do,

not because of the things we do.

You don't even recognise
your own sermon, do you?

No, yes, I do. Now I do.

I believe I also mentioned
that repentance and forgiveness

trump rectitude and obedience.

- What are you talking about?
- "The Prodigal Son."

Or the prodigal daughter.

In which case, aren't you supposed
to be really excited that Mary's home

and showering her
with gifts and stuff?

How can I do that?

I mean, how can I forgive someone
who doesn't understand

that she's done anything wrong?

Wait, I thought you said the story
was about acceptance

more than forgiveness,

that we should all be understanding
of human weakness

since we are all weak
and make mistakes?

But I also said it's about celebrating
when someone understands

the errors that they've made.

I said "The Prodigal Son"
represents confession.

And, you know,
when he was sinking into near despair,

he learned valuable lessons about
the illusory promise of living a life

only to gain pleasure and avoid pain.

Yeah, I must have missed that

when I was opening Life Savers
or something.

- Butterscotch.
- Oh.

I have to study
and look up "rectitude."

- Moral integrity.
- Thanks.

Was there something else?

Are you, unlike our other children,
not bothered by the fact

that your mother is heaping attention
and favours on Mary?

No, are you?

- So Mom's the father in the story?
- What?

Well, I take it that Mom's the father
in "The Prodigal Son,"

and you're the brother.

I'm not the only one.
I have company.

Oh, great.

Because I'm staying out of this one,
even if Mom gives Mary the apartment.

Oh, so you haven't heard?

- Heard?
- Oh, yeah, well, that's right.

You've been locked
in your room all day,

studying, you had dinner in your room,
I guess you missed it.

Your mom's practically finished with the
apartment and she is giving it to Mary.

No, she can't possibly
have cleaned it up in one day.

And she already gave it to Robbie
who gave it to me.

So...

- What's this?
- Well, I thought Mary could sleep

in here with us for a couple of nights
until I get the garage finished.

Hope it's all right.

Or I could stay in
Sam and David's room.

No, no, no. This is fine,
if this is what you want to do.

Maybe it'll give the three of us
a chance to talk.

Oh, she's too tired to talk.
Let's let our baby sleep.

I talked to Wilson earlier.

Why'd you do that?

Because I wanted to know
why you're home.

And you couldn't trust me
to tell you that?

- You haven't told me.
- You haven't given her a chance

to tell you. She just got home.

No, I don't think
you wanted me to tell you.

I think you wanted to hear it
from Wilson,

because you think
he'll tell you the truth and I won't.

That's what you all think,
except for Mom.

You still don't trust me
and you think I haven't changed at all.

No. No. No.

[SIGHS]

[MOUTHING]
Okay.

- What are you doing?
- She is not getting this apartment.

I agree.

You know,
you two can agree all you want.

Mom says it's Mary's so it's Mary's.

Go get pillows and blankets.

SIMON: Hey, what's going on?
- I'm squatting.

And we're joining him,
although I don't know why.

- Because it's not fair.
- It's like you said.

Yeah, we do everything right,
and what do we get? Nothing.

Mary does nothing right,
and what does she get? Everything.

We do everything right?
I don't know if I said "we."

LUCY:
Just go get pillows and blankets.

You're taking on Mom, and this is not
a good time to be taking on Mom.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

- Are you in or out?
- Oh, I'm in. I'm always in.

What are you doing outside
in the middle of the night?

Better question:

Who put that lipstick
all over your face?

What happened to you?

A "what" with red lipstick.

You're dating someone?

Would there be something
wrong with that?

- You found someone in a week?
- It's been months.

It's been seven days
since we broke up.

We didn't break up.
We never really got together.

So I just meant nothing to you.

So who is it?

Why now?
Why'd you have to come home now?

Don't have an answer, do you?
You never have any answers.

Whose side are you on?

You understand.

Do they all hate me?

Eric!

The children are missing!

Our children are missing!

ERIC: They're in--
- No, no.

Not the little children, the big children.
Matt, Simon, Ruthie, Lucy.

They're gone, all of them.

I think they're too big to have run away.
I think they could be in the garage.

And I'm just guessing,
but it's hard to sleep on a couch

and I saw things.

What do you think you're doing,
scaring me like that?

What is this,
some kind of a sick prank?

- Well, is it?
- It's-- It's more like a protest.

A protest?

What are you protesting?

We don't think
Mary should get this apartment.

No, we don't.

Hey, I warned them.
So go ahead, let her rip.

You knew it was wrong and you
went ahead and did it anyway?

- I had to, or else I'd miss this.
- Get in the house.

- Now.
- Oh, please, that's not fair.

[DOG BARKS]

Make that the three of you.

Come on, go.

Is that how it's going to be?

Fine.

Big mistake.

What do you think
she meant by that?

I don't know,
but it wasn't anything good.

This is an historic moment.

The moment we defied our mother,
we shalt surely die.

Hold on.
Hey, I got something to say to you.

And I think you're old enough
to hear it.

Life isn't fair, so get over it.

Thank you for letting me know that.

Only a parent, a mother,
would care so much

that she, you, would explain
such an important lesson

in such a simple and direct way.

Let me say this.

I don't know what I was thinking when
I joined up with those three idiots.

But I don't care if you give Mary
the garage apartment.

I don't care if you give her
the whole house.

It's not my right to live here
with my privilege.

And I'm grateful, very grateful.

So how may I be of service
this morning?

Get the twins ready for church.

I'm gonna leave
before things get any worse.

No, you're not.
You're not going anywhere.

Pick any room you want.

Because Matt, Lucy,
Simon and Ruthie

are going to be living
in the garage apartment just like it is.

- But I--
ANNIE: Uh, uh, uh.

[ERIC SIGHS]

Mary was in our--

- What's going on?
- I'll tell you what's going on.

- Our children--
- The big ones?

Yes, the big ones.

The big children
thought they could pull off a coup.

But they are about to reap the
consequences of their stupidity,

their lack of respect,

and their failure to recognise
that they have no power whatsoever.

Whatsoever.

- Oh, help us, oh, dear father.
- Father?

Have you ever called me father?

Not with an "oh" and a "dear"
attached to it.

But desperate times
call for desperate measures.

- Please, please, help us. I'm only 11.
- I don't even know what's going on.

We're squatting
in the garage apartment.

We camped out in there.

Matt, Lucy and Simon don't think
it's fair that Mary gets to live there.

And they don't like that Mom jumped in
and made it all nice and everything.

- Well, how do you feel?
- I feel like I made a big mistake.

And I'm really, really sorry.

Well, I like that you know you made
a mistake and that you're apologising.

- That's good.
- Not good enough.

You did-- Well...

So who is it?

Who is?

Who's responsible for the lipstick
that was all over your face last night?

You don't even know her name?

No, I know her name.

Was it someone I know?

No, no one you know.

So it's not Cheryl.

No, it's not Cheryl.
I wouldn't do that to Matt.

And besides,
Cheryl and I are friends.

What are we?

I don't know.

Maybe someday we'll be friends,
but right now, I don't know.

Are you in love with her?

Why do you wanna know?

Wilson and I broke up.

We were going to get married,
but we're not getting married.

You want to know why?

No, I don't want to know why.

But you may wanna tell
the rest of your family,

I think they want to know.

Well, Dad probably knows,
he can tell them. He called Wilson.

You put him in that position.

He wouldn't have called him
if you had volunteered the information.

Yeah, he would have, because he
doesn't believe anything I say.

No, he just doesn't believe
everything you say.

Yet he believes everything you say.

I can't believe
how much things have changed.

It doesn't seem that long ago
that I was defending you to him.

If you came back here to tell me
that you want to get back together,

I can't do that.

That's not why I came back here.

And why can't we just be friends?

Because--

Because you and Lucy thought
about dating each other?

Or because you kissed her?

Look, I don't even care about that.
I never even took that seriously.

The lipstick? Oh, so you
made out with some woman.

So what?

She's not just some woman.

I never thought I'd say this,

but I found someone.

A serious someone.
I could marry this someone.

You couldn't have
known her a week.

It doesn't matter.

I knew from the moment I saw her.

Are you bringing her
to church today?

We're going to her church.

ANNIE:
I'll tell you what's really unfair.

What's really unfair
is that your father and I

have worked around the clock
for 20 years

to give our children a good home,
to send our children to school,

to buy our children the clothes
that they want to buy.

And yet those children,
the very same children

that we sacrificed ourselves for
over and over again,

think that they should decide
who gets what and when they get it.

- No--
- Don't speak.

I will give your sister Mary
anything I want to give her

anytime I wanna give it to her,
because I love her.

And I am happy that she is home.

- Nothing.
- Mary needs us.

She needs her father, she needs me,
and she needs you.

And I've got news for all of you.
We need her.

We need to embrace each other
and support each other,

because that's what families do.

And until you're ready to do that,
you know what?

You can just live out here.

You've got a change of clothes, one
week's allowance and schoolbooks.

You're more or less on your own,

until you are allowed the privilege
of telling me

just how much you regret
your total lack of respect for me

and my decisions.

And then at that time,
if I like what you have to say,

I just might let you back into the home
that your father and I have created.

Until then, take care of the rebellious
one known as Ruthie.

You can come in to use the toilets.
Nothing else.

Not the kitchen, not the laundry,
not the showers,

not the phone and not the TV.

Enjoy.

[SIGHS]

We shalt surely die.

ERIC: Now, this is the third
of three consecutive parables

in which Jesus is trying
to make the case that sinners,

who confess their mistakes
in an effort to overcome them,

bring more joy to God

than people who try to live within
the letter of the law,

but in doing so,
fail to see their own sins

or understand the sins of others.

Anyone need a Life Saver?

[AUDIENCE CHUCKLING]

Now, God is not condemning
good works or obedience to the law,

but he is saying that
even the most obedient among us

are sinners in need of forgiveness.

And nothing pleases God more than
when we realise this about ourselves

and endeavour
to do something about it.

Now, there's a tension here
between the goodness

that comes
with a spiritually-minded life

and that which is evident
in the doing of good works.

A spiritual life
is largely an interior experience

that's suppose to give rise
to righteous living.

Doing good works, on the other hand,
is largely exterior,

and it may mask
a very unspiritual inner life

that's filled with resentments
and judgements,

and a sense of self-righteousness
and unnamed hostilities.

Thanks for coming. Good to see you.

Good one, reverend.

- One of my favourite subjects.
- Good.

- That was great.
- Thanks for coming.

My brother's bad too
and my mom likes him best.

You should be grateful
that I don't have a pulpit.

Airing your feelings about me in front
of the whole church, unbelievable.

WOMAN: Bye-bye.
MAN: We're parked over here.

I'm not judging anyone.

I didn't say that.

Well, you thought it.
And it's not like you're standing around

with your arms wide open,
welcoming her home.

No, you're not. You're just like me
and all the other kids.

Dad, you're just as guilty as I am.

You know, your good works go
just as unnoticed as mine.

And you are annoyed by that
just as much as I am.

You know, I am resentful,
but at least I admit it.

Maybe not to everyone in church,
but I admit it.

If you wanted to talk to me,
you know where I am.

I'm in the garage
with the rest of them.

And I don't like being referred to as
"unnamed hostilities."

I'm not hostile.

I might be a little belligerent,
but I'm not hostile.

That wasn't you.

No, it wasn't. Ruthie?

I thought things
couldn't get any worse. I had hope.

Now I'm hopeless.

I'm gonna grow up in the garage.
What kind of life is that?

- I wasn't talking about you.
- Sure you weren't.

Great sermon, Dad.
I'm not sure that they got it.

They should be back from church
in a few minutes.

Did you like my church?

I got a little confused about when
to stand up and when to kneel down,

but it was interesting.

- It's a lot different from my church.
- How so?

I have never seen anyone
at my church wear pants like that.

Do you think the Camdens
will like me?

Most of them. Yeah.
