Field Day

Isabelle, come down! Did you finish your breakfast?

We need to leave enough time

for the first day of school photo.

Oh, I haven't unpacked my tween to English dictionary yet.

I'm just gonna assume "ugh" means I'll be right there.

Hey! Language!

Uh... okay.

Oh, look at you. Do you have everything?

Yes.

- You got your backpack? - Yes.

- Your binder? - Yes.

This is your lunch.

I'm not worried.

As soon as that creep realizes we found

his deleted social media post,

I guarantee he settles out of court.

Mom!

Sweetie, let's go outside for a picture.

No, Carl.

On what planet do I call my paralegal sweetie?

Maybe in the south?

Five minutes in the car?

Okay.

I will talk to you when I get into the office.

No, around 9:00 AM.

I'm taking Lucy to school and then I have that PTO thing.

I thought Dad was gonna do that.

This is your last year of elementary school.

I don't wanna miss a beat. Smile!

Oh, you look great.

Hi everyone. Good morning.

Uh... Kell, do we have any half and half in here?

It's in there. I promise.

I don't see it.

Okay Jordan, are you ready

for our annual first day of school selfie?

Hi everyone.

It's BMF Kelly with some first day of school pic tips.

What's a BMF?

It means best mom friend.

Sweetie, do we really have to post everything in our lives?

And I can assure you, there is no half and half in here.

It's not everything.

It's just what I think other moms might find helpful.

Like... how to get your husband

to look behind the mayo when he's trying to find the creamer.

I could've put mayo in my coffee.

Now that would've been content worthy.

That's disgusting.

I mean, there's an audience for it.

Okay guys, talk to you soon. Muah!

- You got your lunch? - Yes.

- Do you have your confidence? - No.

Oh, wait! We need our first day of school photo.

Um, you know the drill.

We gotta get a good one for the grandparents

and a silly one for us. Okay?

It was a tradition with you, me and Dad at our old house.

It's not the same here.

Honey, I know it's not.

But in a way, your dad,

he is here with us because this is where he grew up.

This is where your grandparents live.

It's what we planned on.

This is where your dad wanted us to be.

What if no one likes me?

Well, that's just impossible. You're the coolest kid I know.

And even if you weren't my kid, I would wanna hang out with you.

Yeah, 'cause you're not cool, so...

That's true, I'm not cool. You have a point there.

Okay, we're running late.

Alright, one big smile, sweetheart.

Cheese!

It's perfect, I love it! Let's go.

Why are you still in your pajama pants?

Well, no one's gonna see them. I'm not getting out of the car.

Okay.

Here we go.

Alright. Have a great day, sweetheart.

Oh, I love you so much.

I love you too.

- Bye. - Bye.

Isabelle! Isabelle!

Isabelle! Your lunch!

Your lunch!

Oh!

I am, uh, so sorry! Sorry!

You can't park here.

No, I understand... okay.

Sorry!

Okay, here we go.

Just conference me in, okay? I can't miss this PTO thing.

Yes, Tim usually does it.

Just get Wallace on the phone so I'm not late.

Last thing I need is to get stuck doing Field Day.

Hi! Um...

- Oh, hi. - Hi.

I have a... um...

I just need to get through the...

Hey! Still me.

Uh, I have lunch, it's my daughter's lunch.

She's wearing headphones.

Oh! Sorry. I... Can we buzz her in?

Hi.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

I'm back.

The door, it closed.

I didn't get to it in time.

Hello! Hello! Uh...

Hi.

Oh, hi. Thank you.

Happy to help. I like those pants.

I did not think I would be getting out of the car.

Well, don't be embarrassed, I have seen worse.

Trust me, I have seen things.

I guess I should get in there

and give the office my daughter's lunch.

Actually, you don't have to.

Oh, so I didn't need to...

No.

Oh. What can I say? I'm new.

Hi New, I'm Dan.

Oh, no... did you just dad joke me?

I did, sorry. It's kind of a force of a habit.

The, uh, the kids hate it.

How many kids do you have?

About 150.

Yeah, you know, give or take.

Well, that's my cue. It was nice to meet you...

- Jen. - Jen. Right.

Oh... sorry. I'm still Ben.

- Bye! - Thank you.

What do you mean Wallace isn't answering?

Just try his backup, backup cell.

Um, excuse me.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

No, you're not.

Actually, I'm just waiting for a conference call to start

and I'm evidently gonna be waiting

until the PTO meeting's over.

That's where everyone's going. I thought that was next week.

No, it's today.

I'm actually heading there too if you want to follow me.

Are you coming?

I can't go like this.

You were running late and didn't think

you'd be getting out of the car?

Yup!

We've all been there, no one's gonna care.

I just can't meet a bunch of moms

for the first time dressed like this.

Just get in there, sign up for what you want,

and then make your escape.

We really need to get in there

otherwise we're gonna get stuck...

Yes! Hello, Mister Wallace.

Yes, we just need a quick statement from you.

Stuck with what?

Oh... hello.

Kelly and I wanted to start by telling you how happy we are

that you all came out this morning.

Hi.

If everyone could, uh, please take their seats.

Thank you.

Now, the individual event committee meetings

should take place one month prior to the date...

No.

Not happening.

Uh... Marissa, if you could please just sign up

for an event and take a seat.

Uh-uh... I'm not doing Field Day.

Now Marissa, you know that every committee event

is equally important. - Hmm.

Besides, I'm sure your daughter will be so happy

to know you're getting involved this year.

There you go.

So, Field Day

is what you didn't want to get stuck with.

How'd you guess?

- Thank you. - Mmhmm.

Oh... wow.

It is wonderful to see how much school spirit you all have.

I can already tell that this is going to be a great year.

Oh...

But I see that we only have two names for Field Day.

- That's us? - That's us.

Well, I'm sure we can find someone

who missed the meeting to do it.

That being said, it is only a month away,

so we'll need someone with experience

in planning school events. - Mmhmm.

Ah! Is Tim available?

No.

- Who's Tim? - Husband.

Oh.

Now, we definitely should have someone

on the Field Day committee who we can trust to get things done.

You should do it, Kelly.

Ha!

Oh... no, no, no. No, I didn't mean me.
