The Return

- Mommy. - How's my beautiful girl?

Rodger has my pinwheel.

Boys don't play with pinwheels.

Rodger.

Amelia, come keep mommy company

while she does some calculations.

Rodger, I'll come check on you in a bit.

Rodger, boys don't play with pinwheels.

Rodger.

Hey.

We've got a long drive ahead of us.

If we wanna make it to Pritchard before nightfall,

we've gotta leave soon.

Jordan's packing the car.

Yeah.

Okay, guys, keep your eyes open for a gas station

'cause I need fuel in the form of like

five to 10 pepperoni sticks.

Well, I think you are out of luck.

I'm pretty sure there is no gas station

between here and my house.

Well, how about a couple road rockets, huh?

Beer me, Beth.

What?

Beer me.

We don't have any beer.

Beer him too, 'cause he just crushed two weeks

of homework since Westport.

- That is true. - And Jordan,

- we don't have any beer. - It's a hot day.

And you know what sounds great on a hot day?

- An IPA. - Is this a bit right now?

Is she doing a bit because like we don't have any beer,

let alone an IPA.

Well, look at this there's a gas station.

So, that's fortuitous.

Now we're talking.

Yeah, go ahead and get your pepperoni sticks.

Think they have IPA?

They probably have IPA.

Hey, babe, can I give you a hand?

Nah, it's okay.

Jordan's got it.

Already on it.

Welcome to my humble abode.

Hm, my abode.

Same thing.

Yeah, pretty much, actually.

This is all yours now, hey?

Yeah, I guess.

I haven't seen the will, but.

You're right.

They should probably have left the house to me.

I'm thinking if we put the jacuzzi right here

in the living room that'd be really nice

and that's kind of like what your dad would have wanted.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're right.

Hey, I just realized something.

We are orphan buddies now, huh?

Hm?

No?

Anyone hungry?

- Always. - Yes.

You guys want some sandwiches?

Eh.

So, did your dad,

- did it happen here? - I don't know.

I'll ask the lawyer when I go meet him in the morning.

So, it could've happened here.

Or in the living room or his bedroom.

Oh, where are we sleeping?

'Cause I am not sleeping in his bed.

Oh, good point.

I don't really wanna sleep in there either.

Look, we will take my room,

you can have Amelia's old room.

It's still setup?

Yeah, my mom wouldn't let us touch it after she died.

It might be a little dusty, but.

I can handle dusty, that's fine.

It's just the creepy factor

I've got a little bit of a problem with.

Well, then I think you're fresh outta beds.

Great, I will take the couch.

Unless you guys had like a family dog

that went teets up on it?

Jordan, thanks for coming.

No place I would rather be.

Oh, thank you.

I will eat all of these sandwiches to myself.

Beth, I just wanted to thank you.

Oh, you don't have to thank me, Rodg.

I know, but you were excited for me

to meet your parents over spring break.

Oh, there'll be plenty of time to go to Hartford later.

I know, but I was so looking forward

to throwing the pigskin around with your dad.

- Oh, were you? - Touchdowns.

- Mm hm. - Yeah.

- Right. - Absolutely.

Totally.

Sorry, clearly Jordan and I

have similar coping mechanisms.

Yeah, you do except Jordan copes 24/7.

That's very true.

Sorry, it's just a weird time.

It's okay.

I get it.

And yonder, I think he heels.

Not only in place of the final,

but maybe as well.

It's a new Stafford, the connection-

And yonder, I think he heels.

Not only in place of the final,

but maybe as well.

Great.

If any of you dolls decide to get up in the middle night

and crawl into bed with me,

I will twist your heads off like bottle caps.

Consider yourself warned.

No.

No.

When is the funeral service then?

Monday, 1:00 p.m. at St. Michaels.

I'll clear my schedule.

Oswald was a good man.

He was a good friend.

He loved you very much.

I know.

You know he told me once that he thought

you were smarter than both him and your mother.

That's saying something.

He wouldn't have been surprised

if you graduated high school two or three years early.

Yeah, well, I didn't.

Okay, well, I can get into whatever specifics you'd like,

but to give you the gist of it,

he left everything to you; a house, everything in it.

He'd accumulated quite a substantial nest egg-

- Sorry, do you know what happened to him, specifically?

The hospital said heart attack, but he wasn't even 50.

All I know is that they found him

at the top of the stairs outside Amelia's room.

When we last spoke he did seem distracted though.

He was almost manic.

And what do you mean by that?

He was very agitated.

He mentioned he had discovered something.

But I didn't realize he was that out of sorts.

No.

No, I don't think anyone did.

- Hey. - Hey.

You know, if I knew that your dad didn't have any porn

I would have gone to Fort Lauderdale with the Tri-Lambs.

But don't worry, I took care of that for you.

You're welcome.

Nice shirt, you look good.

I bet Max could not keep his hands off of you.

All right, so you want me to take

a look for the power cord for the laptop?

Already charging.

That was fast.

Gotta find Ozzie's stash.

And that was gross.

You know where Beth is?

Uh, upstairs probably.

All right, I think that is where I will be for a while.

Bye.

Hey.

Hey, what's up?

I was just talking to my parents.

How'd it go?

It's fine, it was all right.

Oh.

I should have come with you.

No, no, don't sweat it.

The funeral's gonna be Monday.

Okay.

So, did you get the house?

Yeah.

Are you gonna keep it?

Maybe.

I mean, I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought

of some upgrades I would make.

Oh, you should work on the drafts

because your sister's bedroom door like shut super hard

and scared the shit out of me.

- Really? - Yeah.

All right, we can move rooms if you want.

No, no, no.

No, I like it in here.

All right.

Come on.

I'll be, uh, I'll be right down.

Okay.

I am so sorry, Rodger.

It's just the two of us now.

So, we're gonna have to take care of each other, okay?

Oh, no.

- Beth! - Oh, God.
