Amber, what you said about my add earlier, I wanna say I think you're right on and I really appreciate you had the guts to speak up, so, thank you.
Wow, okay, great.
People pay a lot of money for a baby these days.
- What's this? - What is it? He signed the adoption papers.
He treats Jabbar really well, and I'm guessing that he treats you the same.
- He does.
- You deserve that.
Hey, Lily, we have an extra studio upstairs that we don't use.
If you ever wanna practice there, it's open and available to you.
- Whoo! - Yes! Wow! Thank you.
That was some hot blues.
Yeah, you can play the hell out of that thing.
- Oh, well, thank you.
- That was cool.
You just made that thing kind of cool.
I thought those things only played nerd music.
- Yeah.
- I'm so wrong.
I wanna see you play this live, like wh-- You don't call it shows, do you? Per--uh, a performance.
I wanna see a performance.
Yes, I do, actually.
This, uh, this Sunday night.
- Really? - In golden gate park.
I'm part of a quartet.

Okay, well y-- I mean, you can bring him - because I can get more tickets.
- Oh, ok-- Yeah.
- Okay.
- Yeah, he will like itHmm.
Classical music? I-- - I wanna play this thing.
I think I can play this.
Maybe even better than you is my guess.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
I mean, it's just a big guitar, right? - Oh, nice.
- That's all it is, right? Wait, where are the frets? What happened to the-- Where did those go? Okay, so don't-- Pretty good, right? You could-- I could call in sick, and you could take my place on Sunday.
- Really? - Yeah.
You're thatThat talented.
Can I get some soda? Yeah, one of the small ones.
Hi.
- Thank God.
- What's up? What are you doing? I'm writing.
I need an interruption.
Badly.
Oh.
How was school? School wasGood.
I got an "A" on that test, so Oh, good, "A" in chemistry.
Very well done.
You want me to make you something? Um, well, I'm about to leave and go to Amy's.
- Again? - I'll eat there.
Yes, again, I'm sorry.
- All right.
- Also, um Amy's parents are taking her to UC Davis to look at the school, and she asked me to go so Is that a school you're interested in? Um, I mean-- because if you are, we could make a whole thing out of it - and do a tour and-- You know? - Yeah.
Well, yeah, I mean, but I don't really know yet.
Just looking around-- It's not, like, anything serious.
- That big of a deal.
- Oh, that's - It's okay if I go? - Sure.
- Yeah, you can go.
- All right, great.
All right, I guess I'm out of here.
Really enjoyed our time together.
It was really nice.
You will come home at some point though, right, because-- - I-- Maybe.
- I'd like to see you again.
Mmm.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- How are you? - Breakfast for dinner? I know, I know, I just wanted to do - Come on.
- Something a little different.
It's all I had in the house.
Oh, hello.
- Oh, my God, you guys.
- What's going on, Nora? - You're home.
- She's a little gassy.
Um, hi, I have to talk to you.
- I have news.
- What? - What's wron-- What happened? - Are you okay? Why-- What? I just have to tell you that I got into Cornell early admission.
You did? Haddie, congratulations! That's fantastic.
- You stinker, I was worried.
- Thank you.
Why is there yelling? Your sister got into Cornell.
Okay, well, college or university? - Because there's a difference.
- University.
- University.
- Okay, well it's not, you know, Harvard or Yale or Princeton or MIT And Cornell-- - Shut up! - Cornell University, Max.
- Cornell's not bad.
- Give me a hug.
I'm so proud, I really am.
Thank you, thanks.
I am, I knew you could do it.
- Nora.
- That's fantastic, Haddie.
- Did you hear? - Thank you.
- Fantastic.
- Yay! Sister got into Cornell.
We're comin' up we're building speed we walk along through endless greed we walk along through endless nights and suddenly, it's all about to change and all I could have been and all I would have been And blood pressure looks good, so a lot of positives here.
Yeah, all right.
But, there is something we need to talk about, Zeek.
What? Well, your tests show that you have a condition known as atrial fibrillation.
It's a sort of abnormal heart rhythm.
In fact, it's the most common one amongst men your age.
It means, the, uh, upper chambers of the heart aren't working correctly, so the blood isn't moving through properly.
It's serious? - Not immediately life-threatening.
But it can cause blood clots.
It greatly increases your chances of having a stroke.
It can also lead to heart failure.
Well-- No wait a second, see.
I mean, I feel great.
I run, you know, I take care of myself.
You can have AF and show no symptoms.
It's not uncommon.
So, it's-- It's treatable? Yes.
For now, I'm gonna put you on a blood thinner, a beta blocker and recommend a program of diet and exercise.
We'll follow up in a little while and see how you respond.
If the condition gets more serious, then we can discuss surgical options then.
Surgery? For now, we really just need to monitor And see how it goes.
That's a little ways down the road.
Okay.
May God bless and keep you always and may your wishes all come true may you always do for others and let others do for you may you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung and may you stay forever young may you grow up to be righteous may you grow up to be true may you always know the truth and see the lights surrounding you may you always be courageous stand upright and be strong and may you stay forever young may you stay forever young - Hey.
- Hey.
You okay? Just can't stop thinking about the cost of tuition at Cornell.
It's like 50, 50-- - Closer to 60.
- 60,000? That's just one year.
College is four years.
I've done the multiplying over and over in my head.
I just-- You know, Cornell has great financial aid.
They're gonna calculate based on what I was earning at T&S, and that's only gonna get us to about $7,000 a year.
What about loans? I just-- I don't want Haddie to be saddled with all this debt when she gets out of school.
I can get another-- It's not just tuition, you know? There's gonna be airfare to and from.
- I know.
- Pocket money.
She's gonna need an entire winter wardrobe, too.
She doesn't even own mittens, just Careful, don't strip it.
Hey, my husband's a contractor.
I know how to do my-- my thing here, all right? - Those are awesome glasses.
- Yes, safety first.
Yeah, you know you really don't need to worry about that with, uh-- No, keep on doing what you're doing, it's-- - Hey, guys.
- Okay, take this.
- Wait-- - Shut the door, all right? - Why? - Because this is for the baby that she's giving up.
It might be awkward, just Oh-- - Hey.
- Hey.
- How's it going? - Whoo.
Good.
Yeah? So How are you? - What are you doing? - Oh, you know, just Gonna go lay down and then pee and then lay down and then pee again in ten seconds, so Great.
Oh, um, gosh, I almost forgot.
I actually did sign us up for that birthing class-- - What? - That's this week.
Yeah Remember? Yeah, but I told you I'm just gonna go and immediately get my epidural on, and then that's it.
You know what I mean? So do we really need to do that? Yep, that is completely understandable.
But in order to birth at this hospital, we do have to.
Okay, whatever, let's do it.
- Awesome.
- Cool.
Let's do it.
Jeff Wormely, he's hosting the fundraiser.
He's got tons of friends with tons of money.
Why are you looking at me like that? Does that not concern you? - What? - Wormely? Or is it "Warmly"? He's loaded, I promise you.
So you need to bring the charm.
It's been brung, okay? - It's been brung, don't-- - Hey.
Sorry to interrupt.
I'll come back.
No please, come in, come on in.
It's fine, I can come back.
I just wanted to give you the proofed copy of-- - Thank you very much.
- No, we're just talking about the fundraiser on Sunday.
- Something wrong? - No, no, no, no.
Please don't read it.
- It's not ready.
- It's fine.
She's really, really good, I promise.
- It's - It's good.
This is great.
- Okay.
- This is terrific.
- Right, I'm sure.
- She's good, right? This is great; she's gonna be there on Sunday, yes? At the Wormely affair? - Yes.
- Are you sure? I don't know what I will do there.
- I know I-- - I don't think so.
You see, it's nearly impossible - to not make fun of that name.
- It's funny.
You're gonna go.
It'll be fun.
- I don't, uh-- - Great, thanks for your work.
- Sure.
- I'll see you in a sec.
- Why am I going? - Okay.
- Hey.
- Perfect timing.
I just got back from the drugstore.
I picked up your prescriptions, and I got you a little pillbox here that has all the days of the week on it so you won't even have to think about it.
I also found these, uh, good heart-healthy recipes in a magazine I'm gonna make.
And you have to read these, uh, instructions here on the medications.
Hey, you know-- You know what? Because there may be possible side effects.
You know, I've been thinking, I don't think we should tell the kids right now.
I wanna just hold off on it.
I gotta get my head around it.
Sols that all right? - Okay.
- Yeah.
So he has, uh, some addition math and some solar system crossword puzzle, I guess.
That has to be done for tomorrow.
Okay.
Hey, um, do you remember the girl you met at the studio the other night, Lily? Lily? Yeah, the cellist? Yeah, the cellist.
Yeah, mm-hmm, yeah, I remember her.
What's that-- What was What's that smirk about? Nothing, I just, um I, uh, saw you guys kiss.
What do you mean you saw us kiss? You were creeping around the hallway? No, I just--I I mean, it's not a big deal.
It's just that Jabbar was there.
- Jabbar saw, too? - No, that's because I got to the door first and when I saw you were busy, I, um, ran interference.
Hmm.
Aw, thank you.
I-- I didn't realize we were being watched; That's embarrassing.
Look, I know you're gonna have hook ups, and I'm not saying don't.
Just when you know your son's on his way-- For the record, it's not a-- a hook up.
I actually, you know, I like this girl.
- Oh, okay.
- She's really cool.
And she's, um a really great musician.
And that's why I-- Why I brought her up, because I was gonna ask you if I could take Jabbar to see her perform this weekend in this concert.
What-- what concert? It's this outdoor thing at golden gate park.
It's supposed to be really cool.
Oh, the WC Series.
- Yeah.
- Oh, wow.
I can't believe Lily is performing in that.
- It's supposed to be amazing.
- Yeah.
Well, I was actually thinking about getting tickets for me and Joe.
Really, you were planning on - going with-- - Yeah, I mean Can you help hook that up? Get some tickets for you and-- Yeah, I mean, unless that's weird for you.
I mean, is that weird? No, I'll, um, yeah, I'll ask her.
- Good.
- Yeah.
Um, I'll get the tickets.
Just making sure, you know.
I want you to be comfortable.
Right.
- This will be, uh-- - Fun! - Mm-hmm.
- Thanks.
Yep.
This is really, really hard.
Well, this is a good way to get out anger.
It just makes me more angry, though, that I'm not strong.
Well, you know, ice cream therapy's very trendy these days.
It doesn't work at all.
Oh, hang on.
- Just a little bit more-- - I should probably try it.
You wanna try it? - Hey.
- Hey, hey, hey good to see you.
I'm just stopping by quickly.
Drew forgot something.
Oh.
Well, we're in the kitchen.
- You remember my husband? - Hi, Paul.
- Hey.
- How are you? - Hi, Amy.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- You forgot this.
You said you would text me.
How can you text me without your device? Exactly You brought this to me.
Yeah.
- I thought I'd walk it down - Thanks.
Because I know, you know, how you get without your phone.
So, I was just in the neighborhood-- -Oh, wait, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
Here, I'll pour you a glass.
No, that's okay.
Please! I'm gonna pour you a glass.
- Well, okay.
- We're just finishing up.
Thank you so much.
Um, thank you again for making him dinner.
- I can't believe it.
- We love having Drew here.
Yeah.
And you guys are going to Davis - on Saturday? - Yes.
We both went to school there; that's where we met.
- Oh, you went there.
- Mm-hmm.
- Yep.
- Uh, I've been there, um Drew's dad played some gigs, and all I ever think about when I think of Davis is this Mexican restaurant where we would eat every day.
El Coyote.
- Yes.
- Yes! - Is that still there? - It's incredible.
The best margaritas.
It's amazing.
Oh, with a little bit of the salt on top, it's so good.
You should come with us.
To the-- Oh, no, no, no.
Just come up, we'll all have lunch there.
We were gonna take the kids anyway.
- Yes.
- Just come.
- It'll be great.
- It'll be great.
- There's no excuse.
- Oh, God, I mean It's worth the trip, really.
- You mean a short trip.
- I'd love to see the school.
That would be great.
I'm excited.
It's the beginning of our college tour, you know.
Come in.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- What you doing? - Hey.
I'm looking at the campus.
It's really pretty, and there's a museum and stuff, and I think it's gonna be cool.
That's beautiful.
It just looks, like, exciting and it's fun to look at.
- I've never been there.
- That's great.
- It's so pretty.
- SoYeah.
- That's very cool.
- Yeah.
Listen, Haddie, your mother and I, we couldn't be prouder.
Getting into an Ivy league school is a great achievement - and, uh - It's a remarkable achievement.
I've dreamt that for you since you were a little kid.
- Mm-hmm.
- 'Kay.
But we wanted to talk to you about keeping your options open.
- Mm-hmm.
- Just to have a backup.
As you know, it's been a tough year with me losing my job at T&S, and-- Financially, it's been a rollercoaster.
It hit our savings pretty hard, and then going into business with Uncle Crosby pretty much wiped out - our savings.
- Max's expenses, you know, for Dr.
Pelikan alone are colossal.
Colossal.
Social skills group and-- - Tutoring all the-- - Nora.
- Mm-hmmSure.
And even though both your mother and I are working, our combined income isn't nearly as much money as when I was working at T&S, so We just want you to keep your options open.
Maybe think about Berkley.
It's a great school.
You could live at home.
When you got out of school, you wouldn't have a huge mountain of debt.
Oh, the student loans alone would be Mm-hmm.
Yeah, okay, so, uh Yeah, it's nice that I got in in the first place, so y-- I don't have to go.
Just keep options open until we figure out what we can do.
- Okay? - All right.
All right.
We're sorry it has to be like this.
- This is just-- - No, I understand.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Get out here! You gotta look at this baby.
Isn't this a beauty? Hey, come here.
Hey.
- Dad, do we-- - Whoo hoo! Are you ready for some fun? Dad, what did you do? What did I do? I got this! - Isn't it beautiful? - Is this ours? It's ours? No, it's mine.
That's awesome.
Mom, isn't it so awesome? You know, thank God for residuals and I know, Milly, you're wondering.
I got it at a good price.
It was a steal, really.
Wondering? You didn't know he was gonna buy that? A surprise.
It was kind of a surprise.
Well I'm gonna let you guys work that out.
- Okay.
- All right? - You like it? - ILike it.
- Yeah? - Yeah, good luck, dad.
What? - I didn't say a word.
- Yeah.
All right, well Hey, Drew-- Is Drew here? Hey, Drew! Hey, kid, you gotta see this baby.
Hi.
Hi.
Um, I was just Working on the nursery, right? Yeah.
I know.
I didn't want to be insensitive to you, so I kind of tried to keep it away from you.
Yeah.
I totally get it, you know? Baby has to sleep somewhere, right? Right.
I really don't want you to worry about it, okay? - Thank you.
- Cool? - Yeah.
- Okay, cool.
Oh, whoa.
- Yep.
- Nice.
- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.
I really like this one.
Me too.
Wow, it's all getting so real, huh? Yeah.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Thought you were finished with that project.
- Uh, I am.
- Yeah? I was just listening to it 'cause I like it.
You like the music or you like the musician? Oh, I think it's both that I like.
The music and the musician.
Yeah, I could tell.
She's, uh She's pretty cool.
She's really unique.
I like her.
That's great, Cros, I'm happy for you.
Thank you.
Um, there is a little bit of a wrinkle, though.
Yeah, what's that? Well, I asked Jasmine if I could take Jabbar to see her perform, right, in the park this weekend.
And then she invited herself and Dr.
Joe to join us.
And she knows that we've kissed.
Pretty weird, right? That's not weird, that's stupid.
It is stupid.
It's a bad idea.
Well, have fun with that.
- I'll see you.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.
How do I get out of it? Uh, you could call Jasmine and you could ask her not to come.
What if I acted like the performance had been canceled? Yeah, do that.
Tell her the concert's canceled.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Haddie? Yeah? - Hi.
- Hi.
What you up to? Just looking at, um, other campuses.
Other schools that I applied to.
'Sup? Listen, Haddie, I know how unfair this is.
I know that you've worked so hard.
You've taken all the ap classes.
You've done everything the right way.
I mean, this shouldn't be an issue.
Our finances should not be an issue.
I mean, dad and I made sure of it when you were little.
- We started saving-- - Mom, I hope that you don't-- Mom, I hope you don't think that I'm upset about your finances.
- Then why are you upset? - I don't wanna talk about it.
- Haddie, tell me.
- Honestly, it's just another situation that I feel like because Max needs something I don't get to do something that I want.
Well, you know Honey, I'm sorry, I mean, we have to spend a lot of money on Max.
- Dr.
Pelikan alone-- - Yeah, I know.
Huge expense, like dad and I told you.
- But this is-- - I know.
Don't explain to me that I need to understand Max's situation or anything.
- I'm not asking-- - Like, I get it.
If he has to see Dr.
Pelikan and fulfill all his needs and I can't go to school I'm not asking you to understand, okay? Then, like, that's what it is.
Okay, I just, um We are trying, and, you know I'm just asking you not to be upset because-- Mom, if I can't go to the school that I want to go to, that's fine; people don't get to do stuff that they don't-- That they wanna do all the time.
But you can't ask me to not be upset about it.
Okay? You have to just let it be what it is.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
That's fine.
What do you think? You like that? It's nice, you know.
Love the pillars, love the building.
Can you imagine yourself in a classroom there? - I can imagine myself, yeah.
- Yeah? This spot right here is where I met your mother.
- We met at this ridiculous sit-in.
- Do you know what a sit-in is? - Guys, that's nasty.
No, I don't know what a sit-in is.
- You know Occupy Oakland? - Guys.
- It's like-- - Oh, wow, like Wall Street.
- Well - Come here, I'm gonna show you where we used to play ultimate frisbee.
Sorry about that.
- This is great.
- It is nice, huh? They look so cute together, don't they? Yep, never seen him hold a girl's hand before.
And Paul, I think he's living out some fantasy about finally having a son, so thank you.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, there's the science building.
We should go see that one.
Oh, yeah, is that where you studied? Me? No, no, no.
That's Paul all the way.
He was the biology science major, and since Drew and he have been talking About science? Biology, yeah, since he wants to be a biology, you know Major? Drew? Oh, right.
- It's exciting, very exciting.
- Yeah.
Hey, guys, wait.
It's right over here, the science building.
- Oh, hey.
- Hi.
Um, I have the list of all the people that are gonna be at the event.
Wives and interests, etcetera, so Brilliant, hey you know you created the single most important document in the entire campaign.
That's very motivational.
Thanks.
I'm not being motivational.
You know, the funny thing about politics-- In order to do good things for people with no money, you gotta be really good at seducing people with money.
- Hmm.
- The country clubbers.
Ah, well, I did work at a country club, so maybe I have a leg up.
Hey, me too-- I worked at the country club as well.
What did you do? I was a waitress.
- Huh.
- You? - I was a caddy.
- Hmm.
- Uh-huh.
- Well Your parents were probably members, so I'm sure they were nicer to you.
My parents were never members of a country club.
My father's an assistant manager at a family restaurant.
He didn't even go to college.
Hmm.
I see.
And yet, here you are.
Your face on a poster.
How did you do it? Uh, truthfully? - Mm-hmm? - I worked my friggin' ass off.
I'm sickly motivated.
It's that or something that happened around the time I was two.
Huh, I see.
Okay, well, um, if you need anything else, let me know.
Amber, I'm really excited that you're gonna be there on Sunday.
Ha.
Thank you Me too.
Hey, so, um, I was going through some of my old stuff.
- Yeah.
- And, um, I found something I really wanna show you.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
It's beautiful.
Yeah, that was my grandfather's watch.
Cool.
I was wondering, um, if you might give that to the baby for me? Yeah, I know that, um, the baby's never gonna meet my grandfather, but, uh, he was really good to me, so it would just mean so much to me if the baby had it.
Yeah Yeah.
- Yeah? - Yeah, sure, yeah.
Okay, thanks So much.
All right.
- So biology, huh? - I mean, yeah.
When did that come up as uh, a major? UmI don't-- I mean, I really like the class at school.
It's like-- - I knew that.
But, you know, you didn't tell me you were, like-- Is it because-- - It's not that important.
- Amy's dad is in biology and-- No, I like biology, it means.
Look, I just, I want you to know that I understand.
I understand you wanting advice, you know, from somebody who finished college and has a cool career.
But I'm here, and keep me in the loop.
Well, yeah, I like biology.
Now you know, so Okay.
You're in the loop now.
Thanks.
Honey, we have to send her.
I don't care if we have to beg, borrow, or steal to do this.
Okay, it's not fair to her.
She deserves this.
She's worked so hard.
In high school she maintained a 4.
1 GPA the entire time.
I know this I know all these things.
And she's been so supportive with Max.
There are other great schools out there.
We've a got a great school right here in Berkeley.
She's a great kid.
But that's not her dream school.
Berkeley is not her dream school.
I know it's not her dream school.
I'm sorry she's gonna be disappointed, but she can get out of school without any debt, she can have a - part-time job.
- This is killing me.
Doesn't make good sense.
Okay.
Then we need to tell her.
We have to be honest with her and tell her she can't go.
What did you learn on your big trip? Well, I learned that Drew has become very interested in biology.
Um He and Amy hold hands no matter what.
He doesn't really wanna tell me about his relationship or about his plans or really about much of anything.
- He's pulling away from me.
- Mm-hmm.
Well, that's what they do, you know? That's what they do.
And then, um The time is so fleeting.
I mean it just It just goes by so quickly, Sarah.
Hi.
Dinner? Um I'm going to hang out with my dad.
Okay.
Thanks though, I'll call you later.
You too.
Would you like to have dinner in the airstream? Are we allowed to eat in there? Most certainly.
Can we order pizza from Rocco's? Oh, Rocco's.
So much cheese.
Yes.
And I can promise you both not one penny will be cut from the education budget at all.
So I want you guys to relax, have fun, eat up and drink up, because I'm gonna hit you up for a lot of money later.
Right over here.
Can I steal you for a second? Yes.
Sorry, this is, uh, Celia Gould.
- Hello.
- Mrs.
Gould, Bob little.
Thank you so much for the incredible work you've done on behalf of the clean the bay committee.
Oh, my God, how did you know about that? Are you kidding me? The invitation that you guys sent out for the event at the end of the month, the, um, the Moonlight and Merlot ball.
Yes.
Forgive me, but you guys are bringing sexy back to local advocacy, Mrs.
Gould.
Well, I don't know about that, but thank you very much.
We were just talking about it at the office actually.
- Right, Amber? - Um, yes.
Yes we were.
We're big fans over there.
We really appreciate everything you're doing.
- Absolutely.
- Wonderful, thank you.
So please, I hope we'll be able to talk more about it later in the evening.
Me too.
I can show you the bar if you'd like.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Amber.
Mr.
Wormely, I just wanted to say once again thank you so much for hosting tonight.
It was such a-- a nice gesture and I just-- Who are you? Uh, I'm Kristina Braverman.
I'm with the Bob little campaign.
We just met before; your wife-- Oh, my wife roped me into this yesterday.
I would rather be anywhere, anywhere! You know what, I was thinking, um, since you're going to be introducing Bob-- - I am going to wing it.
No worries, I can do that.
Mm-hmm.
I can't believe you got that guy to come to my house.
Well, it's really nice of you.
Oh, hey guys.
Hello, here's my boy.
- Hi, mommy.
- Hi, sweetie.
- Hi Joe.
- Hey, little man.
Hey, Crosby, thanks for thinking about us, man.
Jasmine told me that you got us the tickets.
Well, you gave me those great football tickets so I thought it was the least I could do.
I mean, now we're definitely even.
Probably not.

No, no problem.
Wow, that is an awesome suit, Jabbar.
You look-- You look very handsome this evening.
Are you excited? Are you ready for the concert? Yeah, my dad said if I pretend not to be bored, he'll give me ice cream on the way home.
Oh, nice.
Very clever.
Actually, wanna know a secret? Classical music can get a little boring.
But, tonight there is actually a piece of music that has a section that's my favorite ever because it's fun and it sounds like the instruments are talking to each other, and it's really cool.
So I am going to be sitting in that chair right over there.
So if you keep your eye on me, I can give you, like, a secret signal when the fun part happens so you don't miss it.
- What do you think; sound good? - Awesome! - Awesome? - Awesome.
Great.
There you go.
Excellent.
Okay.
- That's important stuff! - You're absolutely right.
- Stop with the sauce.
- I mean, absolutely hammered out of his mind.
- Stan.
- Hey, don't forget about me and those building permits, right? Come on, are you kidding me? Good to see you.
Somebody needs to run interference because there's no way he can get out there in front of everybody and introduce me.

Childbirth is painful.
There's no point in sugar-coating it.
You've all heard it, and it's true.
It hurts a lot.
But, what's also true is this The greatest joy you'll ever feel in your life is the first time you hold your baby in your arms.
I mean it.
It's magic.
Are you exhausted in a way you never thought possible? Yes.
But trust me.
When you hold that baby, it won't matter.
Everything will be perfect in that moment.

Excuse me.
Sorry.
Um, pardon me.

He really is.
