For So Long,

Eddie And I

Weren't Ever Really The Same,

But, You Know,

We Played Monkey Man

And We Went Out

For Soccer Together

And We

Goofed Around.

You Grew Up Together.

Only Now,

I'll Go To College

And Probably

Get Married

And Have Kids...

And Eddie'll

Always...

Stay Eddie.

Oh, My Girl.

[Sobbing]

Tru:
So My Life

Isn't A Tv Show.

I'll Survive.

I Mean,

Just Because In Real Life,

Things Don't Get

Wrapped Up Nice And Tidy,

It Doesn't Mean

They Can't Improve.

Dad Is Making An Effort

To Be Around More.

And He's Trying

Really Hard To Relax.

Don't Let It Go.

Don't, Don't Don't!

I Said Trying.

I Mean,

To Quote A Mom Clich,

"Rome Wasn't Built

In A Day."

And Mom Has Promised

To Be More Available,

So We Can Talk And Stuff.

And, Yes, I Promise

To Actually Listen

And Be Open With Her.

And Eddie...Well, I Think

It's Safe To Say

That Eddie Will Always Be

Eddie.

Come On, Mom.

I Can't.

Eddie:
Play

With Me, Mom.

No, I--

I'll Play With You,

Eddie.

Eddie:
Ok, Tru.

We're Gonna Play Tag.

Tru:
Go Eddie!

[All Cheer]

Eddie, Come On,

We've Watched The Scene,

Like, 10 Times.

Let's Move On.

It's Not Like

It's Gonna Change.

I--I Like It.

I Don't Want It

To Change.

It's You And Me...

Being Twins.
