Summer Snow

Ready?

Not really.

David?

Is that for mom?

Breakfast is ready!

Good morning, ladies!

Ready for a champion's breakfast?

Dad, here, no.

Do I have to eat it?

What did this pan ever do to you?

Ready for some bacon?

I don't like bacon.

What?

I've never liked bacon.

- Okay we're gonna let that soak for a minute.

Or maybe like a week (laughs).

Come on, hon, it's protein.

Oh I don't know.

I think you might have burnt all the protein out.

How about a granola bar?

Yeah?

Yeah.

Mr. Oliver loves it.

David!

Breakfast is ready!

Come on!

You better hurry up if you're gonna

drive yourself to school!

Are you serious?

Yeah.

I wanna know where you are at all times.

Fine, yeah.

You're responsible for gas.

Okay.

No texting and driving.

Dad, I got it.

- And say thank you daddy and come give me a big hug.

Fine, no car.

Now Hallie, I got something for you.

Mom's phone?

Mmm hmm.

Now that's just for emergencies.

Thank you daddy, I love you!

Oh I love you too, pumpkin.

- Father Christmas, do you have anything for me?

Well you still marrying that Colton guy?

Maybe.

- Well, I guess it's time that you order that dress

you keep babblin' about.

Really?

Really?

Thank you so much!

You're welcome.

Look, I know things have been tough lately

but we can do this.

And I promise I'm gonna take care of everything.

So anybody have anything to say?

Thank you, daddy.

I love you.

Today's gonna be a good day!

Yes it is.

She was really special.

I know I'm sure gonna miss her.

But I get to have you in my class

and you are just like her.

Really?

Yeah.

You ready?

- Alright Miss Hallie, I have you over here

next to Miss Isabel.

Miss Isabel doesn't speak very much English

and I thought since you like to talk so much

you two could become great friends.

I like your shirt.

Yellow's my favorite.

Okay?

Rah!

Hey!

Welcome back!

I missed you.

Yeah.

So good to be back.

Ah, I cannot wait for 80s workout night.

I have been dying to get my leg warmers on.

Yeah.

Oh, also, I bought my dress

so I was kind of hoping you could come

to the fitting on Saturday.

Sure, yeah, of course, yeah.

Awesome.

So how are you and mister Tony doing?

Tony who?

I'm really sorry.

- Not everyone can be engaged to mister wonderful.

I mean Tony is just an idiot, so.

Yeah.

And I'm the idiot who fell for him.

Come on.

- You have an 8:15 waiting for you in room B.

A root canal at nine.

And Mr. Rinig has called three times

to confirm his appointment.

The fluorine is on back order.

Mrs. Black's crown is due in tomorrow.

But I rescheduled her for Wednesday just to be sure.

Then, at 11:15--

Janine, can I just ah...

Ah, sign these.

Ah.

Okay then right here.

By the way, welcome back.

Thank you.

Hey.

He didn't cut the crusties off.

How am I supposed to eat this?

What'd you get?

What is that?

Don't you ever talk?

Well whatever it is, it smells weird.

What's the matter?

You not hungry?

It's all crusty.

Oh.

I see, 'cause maybe your dad doesn't make it

like someone else?

It's amazing how quickly a poorly made sandwich

can ruin your day.

My husband made me a tuna sandwich

and forgot the pickles.

I cried and cried for weeks.

I was so mad I could punch a turkey.

But one day, I actually tried it.

And it wasn't so bad.

I missed the pickles.

But it was okay.

- My dad just doesn't know how I like stuff.

I bet your mom did.

But she also knew that today was gonna be

really hard.

So she wanted me to give you this.

It's a really special letter.

And it must be very important

because she made me promise to give it to you.

I'll leave you alone so you can read it.

And Hallie, be patient with your dad.

He'll learn.

Sorry I said your food smells.

You can have some of mine.

My sister put some candy in here

so it's not a total loss.

Here.

What's the matter, you don't like candy?

Go ahead.

Why not?

Your mouth hurt?

Let me see.

Nope, this doesn't look good at all.

You have a problem with your lower bicuspid.

I know because my dad's a dentist.

Wait a minute!

Okay we're about to get started.

You comfortable?

Mmm hmm.

Dr. Benson?

Yes.

You have a phone call on line two.

Can you take a message?

It's your daughter.

She said it's an emergency.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me, I'll be right back.

Hallie?

Hey dad?

Hallie!

Hallie!

Mr. Benson?

Hi.

Hallie, is everything okay sweetheart?

Oh, I'm fine.

It's Isabel.

Hallie, honey, why don't we walk out

in the hallway and talk?

I'm sorry.

Okay, let me get this straight.

You called me at work and had me rush down here

because Isabel had a toothache?

Yes.

You said it was an emergency.

Dad, she can't have candy.

This is serious.

I'll be in my office.

(Sighs) Okay.

Hallie, what were you thinking?

You're a dentist.

You can help her.

It doesn't work that way.

Why not?

Because it doesn't, okay?

What's an immigrant?

An alien.
