Dad?

I didn't mean to wake you. Sorry.

I was talking to Mom before bed.

- Mm-hm.

- And...

...she says she has a lot of stuff to do.

She does?

Yeah. So she might not be able

to hang around as much.

Okay-

She also said you need to increase

my allowance to 5 dollars.

She's very generous.

I just...

I don't want her to disappear.

Sweetheart, she's never gonna disappear.

Never ever.

You can let her go.

She will always be right here.

And I will always be here. I promise you.

By the way...

...Mom loved the Africa trip.

So did I.

I miss her.

Your mother was the greatest.

I mean Lauren.

Me too.

We don't have to let go of her too, do we?

Come here.

Brendan, don't forget

that I'm picking you up for Scouts...

...so don't take the bus home.

Thanks for telling everyone

I'm still in Scouts, Mom.

You're a good boy. Be proud of who you are.

Love you.

Say one word and you're dead.

You're driving a minivan.

It's Dick's.

I'm off to buy toilet paper

for Team Theodopolis.

When the team needs toilet paper,

the co-captain goes and gets it.

And believe me,

those kids never stop crapping.

Kids need to crap.

You need anything from Walmart?

I'm good.

- See you at the PTA meeting.

- Okay, foxy.

Yeah! Base on!

This is so good, honey.

- This is family.

- This is fun for me.

- Way to go, Dad.

- One out to go.

But Standard Fence has a rally going.

Now batting, number 23, Tyler Reynolds.

- Hey, that's not nice!

- Shut up. That kid's awful.

Go Tyler!

Tracy.

What's your head doing here?

Strike one!

I'm so sorry Mark didn't show up.

He just doesn't get it, you know? Your kids

have to come first 100 percent of the time.

Well, like, 99 percent.

You get one percent for yourself.

- That's great news.

- Heh.

Well, no matter what,

you have to show up for your kids.

Like him.

- Hey, hey! All right, big time!

- Come on, Tyler!

Looking good out there!

Get that elbow up!

Elbow up!

Incredible.

Come on, Tyler.

Strike two!

All right, all right!

Nice cut, nice cut. Slow it down a little bit.

Bend those knees. Balance, okay?

Take care of this. That's it.

Elbow up. Higher, higher.

Now, remember the stink eye.

The mustache is rattled.

Come on, Tyler, let's go!

Take them deep.

You hit it!

Run, Tyler, run!

Keep going, brother! Go!

Go now!

Don't hesitate. Come, come!

Come to me, big time!

Go! Run to me!

Keep it going, Tyler!

We're going home, baby!

We're going home!

Safe!

Yeah! Yes!

Do you believe in miracles?

Yeah! Whoo!

Yeah! That's my brother!

Ha, ha! Whoo.

Thank you.

All you in there, big time.

Oh, my God!

What are you doing?

I love you!

That was amazing.

I'm so sorry to show up like this.

I was at your house the other day...

...and I saw your ex-husband blow off

Tyler when he wanted to practice.

I know you guys are trying to work it out,

but it broke my heart.

We're not working it out.

That's never gonna happen.

Really?

What were you doing at my house?

I came by to tell you that...

...I think it's okay now.

Okay for what?

Okay to have one of those

rare, rare moments...

...where we get what we want.

Oh.

Well, what do we want?

You know what we want.

Yeah. I think the kids want it too.

Not as much as I do there,

schlumpy shoulders.

Wait.

I can't do this.

You're kidding me.

Heh. Totally.

I just had to get you back for Africa.

Come on.

You know something?

Your mom is hot.

Your dad's pretty hot too.

Not hot.

Come on, you deserve a nice massage.

- Ow! Oh, it's good.

- Come on, you like that.

- Oh, it hurts so good.

- Sorry.

Look, they're blending

Hearts are mending

Sad times ending

Good times spending

With love

Kids are friending

Wedding trending

Blending, friending, blending, friending

Movie ending
