Enjoy the sweet taste of my lazor beam!

No, not the lazor beam. Engage force field!

PJ.

Put your seat belt on, young lady.

No. It's uncomfortable.

Samantha Pepper I will not ask you again.

Sam, now.

Okay, fine.

Mom!

Open your textbook, please.

Hopefully, we can do better on the next test.

Electricity was considered nothing but a dangerous idea

or fad when Edison was born in...

Anyone?

Ms. Pepper?

1847.

We can't hear you, Smalls.

1847.

But, by 1931,

the time of Edison's death,

cities were powered by electricity.

PJ... no gum, please.

However, still today, many do not understand

not only the basics of electricity,

- but the potential of its power. - Pathetic.

Electricity can be made from water, wind,

the sun, and even animal poop.

Okay. The homework assignment

is written at the end of the chapter

in your textbook.

Trish, that sounds like so much fun.

We'll invite everyone.

Well, at least those who've hit puberty.

Great.

Hey.

Hey. Uh, where's Dad?

Oh, he's busy with the sink again.

How was school?

Fine.

You sure?

Yeah.

Hey, Dad.

Hey! Can you give me a hand?

Sure.

- Hi, babe. - Hey.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

- You got this? - Already on it.

- All right. - Okay.

Hey, sweetie. What's goin' on?

I don't think you had a chance to notice,

but she has gum in her hair... again.

I think she's being bullied at school.

I think you need to talk to her.

Okay, okay. I'm on it.

- Okay. - All right.

All right.

I gotta go back.

Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.

- Bye. - Bye.

See you.

- Bye, Sam! - Bye!

All right.

How we doin' here?

Hey, um...

How was, um... How was school today?

Fine.

Channellock.

Gotcha.

Channellock.

Just, um... Just fine?

Yep.

Okay.

Hey, what are you feelin' for dinner tonight?

Whoa! Whoa there!

I'm gonna have to give you the Heimlich.

What's the matter with you?

That was pretty great of Sydney to pick you up today.

- Right? I mean... - Yeah.

That, uh-that sink took me a lot longer than I expected.

Oh.

I helped. Right?

Mm-hmm.

You like her. Don't you?

Sydney?

Yes, Dad.

She's practically part of the family.

What are you doing?

Nothing. What do you mean what am I doing?

You always do this.

Do what?

Eat your veggies.

Well, you eat yours first.

On three.

One...

- Two... - Three.

Mmh!

So good. Back to spaghetti.

That was a bad piece.

That was for water.

I was thinking we could all go out to-

to eat, tomorrow night.

You know, the three of us.

Okay.

To our spot.

Our spot?

But we haven't been there since Mom.

Well...

We haven't been to a lot of places since Mom,

Sam, but...

...you can't avoid every little place in this town

that reminds us of her. You know?

We-we have to allow ourselves to go out and...

...make new memories.

You're always trying to do that.

Excuse me?

You're always trying to make new memories.

Samantha.

I'm full.

Sam.

Sam, sit down.

Hey, sweetie.

Hey.

It's bed time.

You're my little girl.

Dad...

But you are.

I can't wait for dinner tomorrow.

It's gonna be great. It's gonna be...

...really good for you.

We're gonna have fun.

I love you.

Love you, too.

Well, you know, I...

...have to eat your face.

Okay.

Okay, good night.

- Good night. - See you tomorrow.

See ya.

It could be anything. It could be anything at...

Hey, Sam.

Hey.

Again?

It looks like you have too many

different screw types going on.

Hmm, I dunno.

It looks to me like it might be

how I mounted my sensor.

Everyone!

Can I have your attention, please?

Thank you.

Okay, so Trish's birthday is this weekend

and we're having a girls only birthday party.

Sorry, boys.

We haves stacks of invitations here

for those we're inviting.

Aw, Smalls, don't leave.

You might miss your name.

My mother gave this to me when I was your age.

She gave it to me as a reminder

that no matter what,

she will always be here to protect and guide me.

I'm always here.

Hey, Sammy, let's go! We're gonna be late!

Thank you.

Thanks.

Hey, now.

Ew.

Hey, now.

- Hey, now. - Hey, now.

So, what do you think?

I like it, you guys.

I really do.

And I thought you only like it because of the name.

- Well... - Still...

- Yep. - Still kind of a big part of it.

Oh, yeah?

- Yeah. - Yes.

Yeah.

I think I like hers the most.

Yeah, um...

- Let me just... - Hey!

[Aw...

So, I got you something.

Just a little something.

A random thing.

There you go.

If you don't like it, we can take it back.

No big deal.

It's just that Jim said it was one of the rarest ones.

No, no...

I really like this.

You do?

Yeah.

Nice.

Not now. Can't read it now.

After dinner. Come on.

Eat.

Food just got here. Eat.
