Strays

My babies.

Come along.

Everybody's hungry.

Oh.

Well, so many guests tonight.

Hello cutie.

Yes.

What's the matter babies?

Honey, look at this.

Okay honey, okay what's this, what's this?

What's that?

Red car.

Red car, all right, all right, all right.

Give the little girl a prize.

Okay, come on what's that honey?

What's that?

Blue car.

Blue, that's right.

Blue tractor, all right.

Honey, we're talkin' medicine here.

All right you guys, we're almost to the house.

The house?

Where's the town?

We just passed it.

That was a gas station.

Well, it's a small town.

Lindsey, come on.

Well, garf is just actually a little junction

and fermin is actually

- the main hub. - Fermin?

You really wanna live in a place called fermin?

Garf.

Well that's worse, it sounds like a skin disorder.

Well from what Claire tells me honey,

it sounds just perfect for us.

Yeah, well I wouldn't exactly call

your sister an expert on domestic bliss.

Would she live here?

Of course not, she doesn't have kids to think about.

I don't want Tessa growing up in that city.

Hey, wait a minute.

I grew up in that city and it didn't hurt me.

Jury's still out.

Lindsey look, I want what's best

for everybody but this is, come on.

This is just so, so...

So green.

No, but what are we gonna do here?

We're gonna be garfonian's.

Garfonian's?

Yes.

You wanna be a garfonian honey?

No.

- No, neither do it. - Oh, come on!

Majority rules.

Please!

That's what I like.

We'll have pigs and chickens.

All our friends will be named Zeke.

We can grow our own vegetables.

I don't...

Oh honey, I've always wanted a house like this.

Oh honey, you haven't even seen it yet.

I mean, we're so far out we're

gonna have to get another car.

I've seen all I need to see.

Look, it's perfect.

No steps.

Yeah!

How about that?

She's sold.

Hi.

Oh, Paul look at this place.

Do you like?

Oh Claire.

I know it's a little farther then

we talked about but the price is right

and the schools are great.

Oh, it's beautiful!

It's fine.

There you go baby.

You have any trouble finding it?

Well, directions are not Paul's forte.

Playhouse mom.

I saw Mrs. prince taking it...

Oh, I spoke with the other broker.

He said he was going to show you...

Hi daddy.

Hi sweetie.

Well it's gorgeous.

Yeah.

How much does this cost?

Everything you see here is new.

There's tree and a swing.

I really appreciate you trying to help.

How are you holdin' up?

Uh, hills and valleys.

Yeah?

Well things will work out.

I know.

You know Paul's really been terrific by the way.

You're a lucky gal.

Yeah, I think I'll keep him.

Do you wanna see the inside?

Come on.

Paul, come on!

Paul!

Tessie!

Better hurry up and get inside

before mommy gets out a checkbook.

Hey.

Claire, how ya doin'?

I'm fine.

Aw, good.

Daddy's little girl.

Mwah!

Listen uh, as your brother-in-law and legal counselor

I think it's only fair to warn you

that if we end up buyin' this place,

your divorce could end up payin' for it.

Uh, for you darling anything.

All right.

Come on.

Paul, look at this fireplace.

You remember grandma used to have one like this?

Yeah, my grandfather used to clean one like that.

Okay, so how long has it been on the market?

It's just listed.

The sellers are very motivated.

Kitchen does need a little bit of updating

and plumbing's kind of old but everything works.

- Oh, good. - yeah.

You'll certainly have your privacy here.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Paul.

Paul?

No, just.

- Paul? - You wanna go see?

How come they're selling?

The woman who owned it passed away recently.

I guess the heirs needed the cash.

Well it does have a certain charm

in an amity field kind of way.

Oh, you stop it.

Come here.

I had to drag him up here, you know that?

Look I love the city too Paul but you got a family now.

It's not like you're in college anymore.

Yeah, college was closer.

I know.

Show him the attic.

Dark cramped places, you wanna go upstairs?

They always remind you of home.

I think this room could be converted

into a fourth bedroom or a study or something.

Or a playroom for Tessa, huh?

What a great idea, yeah.

Yeah we could put uh,

dormer windows and some floral wallpaper.

Mm hm.

How 'bout a place and some carpet.

For your bike?

I don't know, it needs a new roof though.

What do you think honey?

- Bless you. - Oh!

T think I need a tissue.

Wait.

Thank you.

It's nice though, huh?

Okay.

So honey, can we?

Oh come on, I'm happy if you're happy.

- You know that. - No I mean,

are you sure?

No, but.

Paul, really?

Okay we're gonna take it.

That's great.

That's great.

I'm so excited!

I'll bring you the paperwork on Monday.

I think you guys got a great chance.

Oh, thanks.

This is our house.

So if anything happens to

the settlement you'll let me know?

Oh yeah, absolutely.

Steven's lawyer is hung up on some stuff

but we'll work out out, okay?

I know you will.

Thanks.

You bet.

Standing why?

Do I get a goodbye?

- Oh, yes. - huh?

Huh?

Say goodbye to aunty Claire.

Oh boy!

Bye sweetie.

Okay.
