James. James, wake up?
Huh?
You didn't set your alarm.
It's past seven.
Holy smokes.
Oh, oh.
I really need to stop relying on your alarm
to wake me up.
How late were you out last night?
I'm not sure. I was with Mike.
Everything okay?
Another work emergency.
The Grim Reaper?
Kinsella.
And if you keep calling her that,
I might accidentally call her that one of these days.
Well, it's fitting.
I know.
Exactly.
I'll go work on the kids.
Okay, I'll help out as soon as I can.
I got it.
Lady Sadie, get up.
Good morning.
All right, rise and shine, kiddo.
Up, up, Thomas.
I need you to get dressed.
We're running late today.
You mean even more than usual?
Yeah, even more than usual.
I don't have any clean clothes.
Okay.
Mom, you didn't put the wash in the dryer.
Oh, son of a bun.
Mm, no.
How about this?
Sadie, you can pick out something
from my closet if you like.
Mom.
Or don't.
Your two options are wear dirty clothes
or look like your mom today.
There's no third option?
Sadie, I need to get started on breakfast
and make everyone's lunches.
Just make a choice.
Thank you.
Oh, kiddo, your pants,
they're on backwards.
I like having these pockets in the front.
Okay, well that's not how they go
so let's just flip them around, all right?
Thank you.
Did you pack your assignment I helped you with last night?
I can't find it.
Do you remember the last place you saw it?
Um, I think here or the kitchen table.
All right, after breakfast
I want you to go and look for it.
Oh hey, twin.
Love that outfit on you.
So cute.
Why don't you have any normal-looking clothes?
That top is vintage.
Isn't that cool with the kids these days?
Stop.
Need some help, buddy?
Do we have any of the Crunch?
I'm sorry, bud, I think we're out.
Do you want to try some of this kind?
There you go.
Oh, who put my mug on the top shelf?
Hon, you know I'm a shorty pants.
Oh!
Oh. - Holy smokes.
Son of a bun.
Can I get a little help here?
Yeah.
Sorry.
Hello.
I gotta brush my teeth.
You should get those paperclippy things
for your planner, Mom.
That's a good idea, Thomas.
I got this.
Why don't you go look for that assignment?
Okay.
Oh no, no, no, no, no.
Not today.
Yes, please, please, please.
Sheesh.
Car won't start.
I'm sorry, I'm gonna need a ride.
Really?
Okay, let me just finish this thing.
I am really going to hear it from Kinsella
about being late.
I'm just gonna chop it all off.
Let's get going.
All right, time to load up.
Lunches are on the counter.
I think you look really good.
Oh really?
You think this looks really good?
Yeah.
Landry. Dryer.
I will be so quick.
I'll meet you in the van.
Can you round up the kids?
Yeah.
Hello.
Yes, I'd like to order a bouquet of flowers for delivery.
Scoot.
On the card I'd like it to read,
"I love you. Happy Anniversary, Michelle."
I'm so hungry.
No, Michelle.
Why didn't you eat more breakfast?
As in Michelle.
Because we ran out of my favorite cereal.
Hey, can you guys keep it down while I'm on this call?
Yes, deliver tomorrow please.
I think I'm starving.
Here you go, buddy.
Thank you so much.
Hello.
I look terrible.
Join the club.
Right, so we'll drop Sadie off first
No, no, we aren't able to do that.
- Then Dad, then you, Thomas. - And even if we could
we'd have to follow
- And I'm coming- - The standard build up
before trying to escalate that issue.
To your class this afternoon, remember?
I can't hear you, Mom.
Look, I'm on my way.
I'll be there in
Do you really need to be on the phone right now?
Yeah, sorry.
I'll be there in about 10 minutes.
Please just stall if you can.
Started already.
Let's see, I drop everyone off,
and then I have Zumba, therapy,
oh, Thomas' class, then my online class.
I have so much going on today.
Isn't that like every...
Maybe just cut back.
Well, maybe it wouldn't be so bad
if I could just get some help.
I don't mind helping out, Michelle.
It's fine.
What would you like me to do?
It's fine.
I just wish you didn't work so much.
Me too.
All right, first stop, Lady Sadie.
I need to finish my makeup.
You're driving.
Okay.
Go around. Go outside.
It's too late.
There could be multiple issues to that problem.
Could you elaborate?
Deer, rabbit, chicken, and a fox.
I actually feel sick.
I think I need to go home.
Is this because you're embarrassed
to be wearing my outfit?
No, I, I actually just don't feel well.
Okay.
She's not sick.
Sadie, it's time to go to school.
She doesn't like her outfit.
Oh, hold on a sec.
Sadie, you look really great today, sweetheart.
All righty, so.
I don't think she liked that.
Huh?
- Just go. - Okay.
Oh.
I need mascara.
Where is my mascara?
Is it the starter or the battery?
I hope it's not the alternator.
I'm so tired of things not working.
