For this?

What happened to you?

I am still me.

Bullshit.

You're Ben lite.

I'm Ben prime. I'm still the

same guy from sixth grade.

No.

Ben, you're a million miles

away from that kid

I swear.

This isn't bad.

I'm just functioning now

like everyone else.

So this is it?

Well, maybe that's what's wrong

with the world.

We keep looking

and grabbing

and eating

and smoking

and never stop to think.

Who could want

more than this?

You're here.

That's all that matters.

Hey, there.

Hi.

I know.

It's a lot of junk.

But I'm

a really good mother.

Hey.

I'm sorry.

I was going to leave

in the morning.

Well, I...

What?

You know anything

about running a farm?

More than you.

Come inside.

No.

Why are we here?

We're waiting

for the rain to stop.

Can I ride it?

Could you?

Hey.

Um, Mom

said Wednesday.

I don't know why

she said Wednesday.
