Mommy! Mommy! Honey, what is it? Ethan? Ethan.
What? What's the matter? There.
Oh, the monster? Oh, here, let me see if he's in your closet.
Is it there? No.
Nothing's there.
You You wanna come take a look? Okay.
Come on.
Let me show you.
You come with me.
We can go look together.
- Look, see - No.
No? Come here.
Come here, my big boy.
Ohh.
So Once upon a time, long, long ago, there was a kingdom, which was really a pretty nice kingdom.
There were castles and moats and this beautiful forest where the wind made a sound like whoooooo.
But there was this one problem.
Someone was stealing the sun.
I mean, just a little piece every day but those pieces were beginning to add up and people were getting a little worried.
I mean, that was bad enough, but you know, what was even worse was that the person who was gonna go into the woods and find this bad guy and the missing pieces was gonna have to go into the woods and maybe get eaten by this horrible furry monster, right? - Right.
- And he had horns, this monster, and fangs and No fangs, just big teeth.
Right.
Right.
So was there anyone brave enough to go into the woods and face this monster? The boy.
Oh, right.
The prince.
So the prince started out on a journey.
Was he alone? No.
Well, who was with him? The princess.
Oh.
What was her name? Stupidhead.
Of course.
Princess Stupidhead, the fairest princess in the land.
Oh, but she was much too young to go into the forest with the brave prince, right? So what did he do with her? The leaf lady.
Hey, it's good to see you.
I've been waiting.
Ooh, sorry.
- Hello.
- Hi.
Oh, if I'd waited any longer, I would have turned into fertilizer.
So you're the guy for the job, eh? I'm the guy.
Well, I do hope you find that person who's been stealing the sun, because actually, quite frankly, I'm getting a little bit tired of all this darkness! What about her? She can't do a big job like that.
She can't do a big job like that.
I could look after her.
You could? Save the kingdom, and it's the least I could do.
You are going to save it? I'm gonna try.
You're going to try? Who else is there? Come on.
Come on.
- Good point.
- Thanks.
Speaking of points, you'll need a sword.
Where's your sword? I've got a sword here somewhere.
Aha! What is this? "Please return to King Arthur"? Sorry.
After 90 days, we're not responsible.
All right.
Uh, kneel.
I do hope I remember how to do this.
I hereby dub thee A name.
A name.
I need a name.
- Ethan.
- Ethan.
Very good.
Right.
I hereby dub thee.
Sir Ethan, the brave and courageous! Go forth, brave knight.
Fear not this forest nor what you find within.
Fear not.
Go forth.
Though darkness rules, the sun will soon return, triumphant, bright.
Go forth and fill our world once more with light.
Go forth.
We look to you to end our sudden night.
All right, that's it, then.
Get up.
I'll keep the princess as a deposit, if you don't mind, you know, for the sword and, uh Well, good luck, sir.
- Good luck.
- I'll need it.
No, you won't.
Farewell.
Come, then.
Sir Ethan, be well.
And so he left the princess, and now he was on his own.
He knew he would need all his courage.
And this was the most dangerous journey he would ever have to go on.
There might be monsters, and who knows what else.
And he could not come home, not until he found the sun.
And so he was off, through the leaves and trees, into the deep dark woods.
- Chocolate chips - Hey, Mom? - What, sweetie? - You know what? - What? - That's what.
- Hey, Mom? - What? - You know what? - What? Sometimes buildings fall down on people.
Oh, yeah? Well, it happens to be extremely rare.
What are you drawing? - You can't see it.
- Yes, I can.
Get back here! Yes, I can.
- I'm gonna get - Aah! I got you! Where do you think you're going? Aah! Oh, come on! Could I see it, pretty please if I ask so nicely? Please? - No.
- If I ask very, very, very very, very nicely? - No.
- Very, very, very aah! No, no, no, no.
Oh, Ethan.
You have been drawing that monster again.
Oh, are you sure that prince wants to go into the forest and see that guy? What's that? Oh.
Did you draw this? That is beautiful.
Oh, that is really cool.
Um, would it be all right if I add some leaves? Great.
Thank you.
Why don't you, um, help me? Wanna add some leaves? Great.
That's perfect.
Oh, you're doing so good.
Yeah.
Oh, I know, why don't we put some more over here? I bet the prince was getting awful sleepy.
He lay down beside the tree, and he took a nap.
What? What? What? What is it? Do you want to stop now? Okay.
Well, maybe we can do some more tomorrow, okay? You know, I was thinking, maybe if we work together, maybe we could make a little book out of some of these drawings.
Would you like that? Me, too.
You know, I gotta go see Britty.
She's making those cookies in the kitchen.
Why don't you just keep on drawing and then you call me if you need me, okay? - Mom? - Yeah? Does Dad like me? Of course he does.
Then, why did he shout Then why did he shout about me? Was I being bad? Oh, no, baby.
No.
No, that's not it.
Sweetie, that's not it.
That's not what it was.
Oh, no.
Why do we eat these things? Because they're bad for us.
Because Because Philadelphia is famous for its cheese steak.
It's not a problem, Elliot.
Watch this.
Watch this.
- What are you doing? - It's not a problem.
I know something about clothes.
Watch this.
Look.
She'll never notice.
Looks really natural, too.

But I just thought that if I popped in like this that I could take away some of the horrible part of a blind date and everything.
- Right.
- You could see that I was normal and I could see that you What? Nothing.
Is that the right chair for you? What do you mean? Well, no, I just mean that do you have any lower back pain or numbness down the leg? Yeah, now that you mention it.
I'm sorry.
I'm not in my office.
How's Ellyn's disk? It's here, in my bag.
She wanted you to have it.
How sweet.
You should keep it, though.
She already gave us her spastic colon.
Right.
Right.
It just kept moving across the desk.
We couldn't get any work done at all, you know.

He loves the office.
So you're not gonna do it? Nancy That's what you're saying.
Just, please.
Just let me talk to him, okay? Look, he told me he thinks you hate him.
So you come when you want.
He tries to get away, but he Oh, that's disgusting.
He jumps into a lake full of throw-up! Ethan, that's enough.
And in the lake there's eyeballs and more guts! - More than a hundred! - More than a hundred? - More than a hundred! - It's the revengers! I'm gonna get you! I'm gonna eat you! - I'm gonna eat I'm - Hey, don't get him overexcited.
- Whoo! Whoo! - Elliot.
I'll never get him to bed tonight.
I'm hungry.
I want my supper.
I'm gonna have an Egg McEthan.
Is he here? Is he here? Ethan? What? What are you feeding him, sugar cubes? Listen, Nancy, really I should go.
Then go.
Come on, Nance.
Give me a break, will ya? Nancy, what? At least I'm here, I'm trying.
He's just a little hyper, that's all.
Fine.
If you want to toss him a crumb, give it to me, I'll toss it for you.
Nancy, if you wanted to fight, you should have told me.
I would have been here hours ago.
- I don't wanna fight with you.
- All right.
Well then, fine.
Wonderful.
Ethan? Come on, pal.
Let me find ya.
I'll take you to the movies tomorrow.
I'll give you money.
I'll buy you a car.
Maserati.
Ferrari.
Ethan? Come on, Ethan! All right, look.
I tried.
Um, give him a kiss and tell him I'll pick him up in the morning and take him to school, okay? - Fine.
- Ethan! You sure you don't want to give your dad a kiss goodbye? I'm leaving now.
Okay, I'm leaving! On the count of three.
1, 2, 3! Bye.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Is everything okay? Yeah.
Pow! Pow! Pow! Hey, pal.
I was looking for ya.

Ethan, Ethan, come here, pal.
Ethan? Ethan? Ethan? Nancy? - Ethan? - Nancy! - Are you okay? - Nancy! Ethan, do you want to talk to me? Go away.
Go away.
Go away.
Ethan, what's wrong? What happened? Go away.

Sweetie, what's wrong? Just breathe into it.
- And whooo.
- Ahhh.
So any better? Uh, yeah.
Yeah, I think so.
Thanks.
- It's nothing.
- Yeah, like this whole date tonight.
No, I didn't mean that.
I don't feel that.
- You don't? - No.
And besides, Ellyn warned me.
What do you mean? Why? What'd she say? I'm just kidding.
I'm still worried about you back.
The way you tensed up in the car.
Yeah, that was weird how that happened all the sudden.
Elliot, these kinds of things don't happen all of a sudden.
They build up over time.
Trust me, these hands know all.
So you're saying I got lucky tonight that you were here? Maybe.
Elliot, thank you.
- For what? - For tonight.
- I had a good time.
- Oh, come on.
No, really.
I mean it.
I loved hearing those stories about your kids.
He looks like you, your little boy.
I mean, I only saw him for a second, but - You think so? - Yeah.
I think he's gonna be a real heartbreaker.
Oh, God.
I miss him so much.
I wish there was a body part you could adjust for that.
I wish there were, too.
So, um, what are you going to tell Ellyn? That it was great.
And, uh, that we're going to see each other again.
- We are? - Yeah.
In one week, in my office.
No heavy lifting.
Do your exercises.
And tell your partner to watch his posture.
There's something a little off.
Hi.
- What you doing? - Nothing.
Then maybe you want to talk about stuff.
You know, if you want.
Like, about tonight.
You're dead.
You're dead.
You're dead.
Well, then maybe You know, what I think we should do is try and finish the story.
And if you want to help me, that would be great.
But even if you don't want to, here it goes.
When we last left the prince, he was really lost, and the forest was very scary.
And even though the prince was very brave, he was still a little worried.
So he lay beside the tree, and he took a nap.
No.
Tell me.
Grrr! Oh, no.
Grrr! - Don't leave.
- Oh, I won't.
- Don't leave me.
- Oh, it's okay, baby.
I won't.
I won't.
I'm here, sweetie.
Oh, I'm right here.
Oh, I'm right here, baby.
Ethan, look at him.
I mean, really look at him.
- Can you? - Yeah.
Yeah? Oh.
Stop! What? You're not afraid of me? No.
Really? Really.
Ohh.
Then could you do me a favor? - What? - Look.
I have been in the forest for so long, and it's really dark and scary.
And to top it off, I hurt my stupid paw.
But why am I telling you this? You don't care.
- You can't help me.
- I can.
Yeah? How? For your information, I happen to have a couple magic Band-Aids with me.
Hey, it works.
It doesn't hurt anymore.
But I should test it out.
Give me five! All right! Thanks a lot.
That was smart, bringing that magic Band-Aid.
I know.
So they became friends, huh, the prince and the monster? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Have some of this.
It's your teacher.
It's very tasty.
You know, my friend, I still can't believe that you and me are both in this forest looking for the same thing.
Yeah, that's pretty weird.

Um, I know there was a prince, and I know there was this kingdom that was in trouble because something was gone.
Something that the people really needed.
And And the only one that could help them was, um, this prince.
And he had to go into the woods, I know that.
And there was this monster there that was really scary.
But what I don't know is what was missing? What did he have to go and find? Do Do you know that? I know what it was.
Maybe it was a rose.
The most beautiful rose in the whole land.
It was not.
Okay, fine.
No.
No rose.
It was, um, broccoli.
Magic broccoli.
Please.
So come on, Ethan, help me out.

Take 'em all.
Mommy! Mommy! Honey, what is it? Ethan? Ethan.
What? What's the matter? There.
Oh, the monster? Oh, here, let me see if he's in your closet.
Is it there? No.
Nothing's there.
You You wanna come take a look? Okay.
Come on.
Let me show you.
You come with me.
We can go look together.
- Look, see - No.
No? Come here.
Come here, my big boy.
Ohh.
So Once upon a time, long, long ago, there was a kingdom, which was really a pretty nice kingdom.
There were castles and moats and this beautiful forest where the wind made a sound like whoooooo.
But there was this one problem.
Someone was stealing the sun.
I mean, just a little piece every day but those pieces were beginning to add up and people were getting a little worried.
I mean, that was bad enough, but you know, what was even worse was that the person who was gonna go into the woods and find this bad guy and the missing pieces was gonna have to go into the woods and maybe get eaten by this horrible furry monster, right? - Right.
- And he had horns, this monster, and fangs and No fangs, just big teeth.
Right.
Right.
So was there anyone brave enough to go into the woods and face this monster? The boy.
Oh, right.
The prince.
So the prince started out on a journey.
Was he alone? No.
Well, who was with him? The princess.
Oh.
What was her name? Stupidhead.
Of course.
Princess Stupidhead, the fairest princess in the land.
Oh, but she was much too young to go into the forest with the brave prince, right? So what did he do with her? The leaf lady.
Hey, it's good to see you.
I've been waiting.
Ooh, sorry.
- Hello.
- Hi.
Oh, if I'd waited any longer, I would have turned into fertilizer.
So you're the guy for the job, eh? I'm the guy.
Well, I do hope you find that person who's been stealing the sun, because actually, quite frankly, I'm getting a little bit tired of all this darkness! What about her? She can't do a big job like that.
She can't do a big job like that.
I could look after her.
You could? Save the kingdom, and it's the least I could do.
You are going to save it? I'm gonna try.
You're going to try? Who else is there? Come on.
Come on.
- Good point.
- Thanks.
Speaking of points, you'll need a sword.
Where's your sword? I've got a sword here somewhere.
Aha! What is this? "Please return to King Arthur"? Sorry.
After 90 days, we're not responsible.
All right.
Uh, kneel.
I do hope I remember how to do this.
I hereby dub thee A name.
A name.
I need a name.
- Ethan.
- Ethan.
Very good.
Right.
I hereby dub thee.
Sir Ethan, the brave and courageous! Go forth, brave knight.
Fear not this forest nor what you find within.
Fear not.
Go forth.
Though darkness rules, the sun will soon return, triumphant, bright.
Go forth and fill our world once more with light.
Go forth.
We look to you to end our sudden night.
All right, that's it, then.
Get up.
I'll keep the princess as a deposit, if you don't mind, you know, for the sword and, uh Well, good luck, sir.
- Good luck.
- I'll need it.
No, you won't.
Farewell.
Come, then.
Sir Ethan, be well.
And so he left the princess, and now he was on his own.
He knew he would need all his courage.
And this was the most dangerous journey he would ever have to go on.
There might be monsters, and who knows what else.
And he could not come home, not until he found the sun.
And so he was off, through the leaves and trees, into the deep dark woods.
- Chocolate chips - Hey, Mom? - What, sweetie? - You know what? - What? - That's what.
- Hey, Mom? - What? - You know what? - What? Sometimes buildings fall down on people.
Oh, yeah? Well, it happens to be extremely rare.
What are you drawing? - You can't see it.
- Yes, I can.
Get back here! Yes, I can.
- I'm gonna get - Aah! I got you! Where do you think you're going? Aah! Oh, come on! Could I see it, pretty please if I ask so nicely? Please? - No.
- If I ask very, very, very very, very nicely? - No.
- Very, very, very aah! No, no, no, no.
Oh, Ethan.
You have been drawing that monster again.
Oh, are you sure that prince wants to go into the forest and see that guy? What's that? Oh.
Did you draw this? That is beautiful.
Oh, that is really cool.
Um, would it be all right if I add some leaves? Great.
Thank you.
Why don't you, um, help me? Wanna add some leaves? Great.
That's perfect.
Oh, you're doing so good.
Yeah.
Oh, I know, why don't we put some more over here? I bet the prince was getting awful sleepy.
He lay down beside the tree, and he took a nap.
What? What? What? What is it? Do you want to stop now? Okay.
Well, maybe we can do some more tomorrow, okay? You know, I was thinking, maybe if we work together, maybe we could make a little book out of some of these drawings.
Would you like that? Me, too.
You know, I gotta go see Britty.
She's making those cookies in the kitchen.
Why don't you just keep on drawing and then you call me if you need me, okay? - Mom? - Yeah? Does Dad like me? Of course he does.
Then, why did he shout Then why did he shout about me? Was I being bad? Oh, no, baby.
No.
No, that's not it.
Sweetie, that's not it.
That's not what it was.
Oh, no.
Why do we eat these things? Because they're bad for us.
Because Because Philadelphia is famous for its cheese steak.
It's not a problem, Elliot.
Watch this.
Watch this.
- What are you doing? - It's not a problem.
I know something about clothes.
Watch this.
Look.
She'll never notice.
Looks really natural, too.
Hi.
I have no idea.
Hi.

Hi, Michael.

But I just thought that if I popped in like this that I could take away some of the horrible part of a blind date and everything.
- Right.
- You could see that I was normal and I could see that you What? Nothing.
Is that the right chair for you? What do you mean? Well, no, I just mean that do you have any lower back pain or numbness down the leg? Yeah, now that you mention it.
I'm sorry.
I'm not in my office.
How's Ellyn's disk? It's here, in my bag.
She wanted you to have it.
How sweet.
You should keep it, though.
She already gave us her spastic colon.

It just kept moving across the desk.

Why should there be a problem? Just, put him on the phone.
Let me talk to him.
Look, just come.
Just do that.
Nancy, come on, just let me talk to him.
I mean, I'll take him to school tomorrow, I'll pick him up, I'll bring him to the office.
He loves the office.
So you're not gonna do it? Nancy That's what you're saying.
Just, please.
Just let me talk to him, okay? Look, he told me he thinks you hate him.
So you come when you want.
He tries to get away, but he Oh, that's disgusting.
He jumps into a lake full of throw-up! Ethan, that's enough.
And in the lake there's eyeballs and more guts! - More than a hundred! - More than a hundred? - More than a hundred! - It's the revengers! I'm gonna get you! I'm gonna eat you! - I'm gonna eat I'm - Hey, don't get him overexcited.
- Whoo! Whoo! - Elliot.
I'll never get him to bed tonight.
I'm hungry.
I want my supper.
I'm gonna have an Egg McEthan.
Is he here? Is he here? Ethan? What? What are you feeding him, sugar cubes? Listen, Nancy, really I should go.
Then go.
Come on, Nance.
Give me a break, will ya? Nancy, what? At least I'm here, I'm trying.
He's just a little hyper, that's all.
Fine.
If you want to toss him a crumb, give it to me, I'll toss it for you.
Nancy, if you wanted to fight, you should have told me.
I would have been here hours ago.
- I don't wanna fight with you.
- All right.
Well then, fine.
Wonderful.
Ethan? Come on, pal.
Let me find ya.
I'll take you to the movies tomorrow.
I'll give you money.
I'll buy you a car.
Maserati.
Ferrari.
Ethan? Come on, Ethan! All right, look.
I tried.
Um, give him a kiss and tell him I'll pick him up in the morning and take him to school, okay? - Fine.
- Ethan! You sure you don't want to give your dad a kiss goodbye? I'm leaving now.
Okay, I'm leaving! On the count of three.
1, 2, 3! Bye.
- Hi.
- Hi.

Sweetie, what's wrong? Just breathe into it.
- And whooo.
- Ahhh.
So any better? Uh, yeah.
Yeah, I think so.
Thanks.
- It's nothing.
- Yeah, like this whole date tonight.
No, I didn't mean that.
I don't feel that.
- You don't? - No.
And besides, Ellyn warned me.
What do you mean? Why? What'd she say? I'm just kidding.
I'm still worried about you back.
The way you tensed up in the car.
Yeah, that was weird how that happened all the sudden.
Elliot, these kinds of things don't happen all of a sudden.
They build up over time.
Trust me, these hands know all.
So you're saying I got lucky tonight that you were here? Maybe.
Elliot, thank you.
- For what? - For tonight.
- I had a good time.
- Oh, come on.
No, really.
I mean it.
I loved hearing those stories about your kids.
He looks like you, your little boy.
I mean, I only saw him for a second, but - You think so? - Yeah.
I think he's gonna be a real heartbreaker.
Oh, God.
I miss him so much.
I wish there was a body part you could adjust for that.
I wish there were, too.
So, um, what are you going to tell Ellyn? That it was great.
And, uh, that we're going to see each other again.
- We are? - Yeah.
In one week, in my office.
No heavy lifting.
Do your exercises.
And tell your partner to watch his posture.
There's something a little off.
Hi.
- What you doing? - Nothing.
Then maybe you want to talk about stuff.
You know, if you want.
Like, about tonight.
You're dead.
You're dead.
You're dead.
Well, then maybe You know, what I think we should do is try and finish the story.
And if you want to help me, that would be great.
But even if you don't want to, here it goes.
When we last left the prince, he was really lost, and the forest was very scary.
And even though the prince was very brave, he was still a little worried.
So he lay beside the tree, and he took a nap.
No.
Tell me.
Grrr! Oh, no.
Grrr! - Don't leave.
- Oh, I won't.
- Don't leave me.
- Oh, it's okay, baby.
I won't.
I won't.
I'm here, sweetie.
Oh, I'm right here.
Oh, I'm right here, baby.
Ethan, look at him.
I mean, really look at him.
- Can you? - Yeah.
Yeah? Oh.
Stop! What? You're not afraid of me? No.
Really? Really.
Ohh.
Then could you do me a favor? - What? - Look.
I have been in the forest for so long, and it's really dark and scary.
And to top it off, I hurt my stupid paw.
But why am I telling you this? You don't care.
- You can't help me.
- I can.
Yeah? How? For your information, I happen to have a couple magic Band-Aids with me.
Hey, it works.
It doesn't hurt anymore.
But I should test it out.
Give me five! All right! Thanks a lot.
That was smart, bringing that magic Band-Aid.
I know.
So they became friends, huh, the prince and the monster? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Have some of this.
It's your teacher.
It's very tasty.
You know, my friend, I still can't believe that you and me are both in this forest looking for the same thing.
Yeah, that's pretty weird.
Say, do you like brownies? Do you have some? No.
I was just asking.
Do you like potato chips? The ruffled kind.
I like those.
- You know what? - What? That was my very favorite story ever.
- Really? - Really.
And now it is time for my little prince to get into bed.
Come on.
Come on, sweetie.
Under the covers.
Get these little covers on you.
Come on.
There you go.
You know what? - What? - I love you.
- Mom? - Yeah? Can you tell me one more story? Oh, it is so late.
Please? Okay.
Which one you want to hear? The day I got born.
Oh, you don't want to hear that one again.
Did you want a boy or a girl? Oh, I wanted a boy.
And when you came out of my tummy, oh, I was so happy.
Good night, sweetie.
Don't let those bedbugs bite.
You changed it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I Come on.
We wanted a boy.
And when you were in my tummy, every night, every night your daddy would lean down and he would whisper, "I love the baby.
I love the baby.
" And then you were born and there you were.
And they lay you right on my tummy.
And oh, we were so happy.
And Daddy Daddy leaned down and he whispered, "We love the baby.
" And you looked up, and you smiled, because you had heard that so many times before.
You ready to go to sleep now? - Yeah.
- Okay.
Yeah.
Me, too.

You want me to look in that closet one more time? It's okay.
Okay.

It's the same chair.
It's just in a different place.
- Nancy? - Hmm? These are good.
Yeah, they are.
He gets it from you.
You think so? Could I get one of these? I could frame it.
