Where's Mom? |
[00:05.25] |
She went to a school-board meeting. |
[00:08.22] |
I don't know how she does it. |
[00:09.41] |
She sure keeps busy. |
[00:11.22] |
It's important to her. |
[00:13.85] |
There are lots of places to go, |
[00:15.56] |
lots of things to do. |
[00:17.87] |
She can't sit around and do nothing. |
[00:20.46] |
Philip works late. |
[00:22.53] |
I guess you're right. |
[00:24.69] |
I wish I had her energy. |
[00:27.92] |
Anybody home? |
[00:29.04] |
We're in here, Dad. |
[00:32.11] |
Oh. Hi, gang. |
[00:34.39] |
Hello, Philip. |
[00:35.33] |
How was your day? |
[00:37.26] |
My day was just fine. |
[00:39.75] |
So was my night. |
[00:41.15] |
It's almost ten o'clock. |
[00:42.74] |
Mmm. I'm starving. |
[00:45.10] |
Um ... where's Mom? |
[00:47.08] |
She went to a school-board meeting. |
[00:48.85] |
There's a note for you on the refrigerator. |
[00:51.89] |
Oh? |
[01:28.78] |
Did you have dinner, Robbie? |
[01:29.81] |
Yeah. |
[01:30.63] |
Mike and I had a hamburger at the diner. |
[01:32.52] |
I came home a little while ago. |
[01:35.09] |
You've been working late |
[01:36.09] |
almost every night this week, Dad. |
[01:37.71] |
Aren't you exhausted? |
[01:40.30] |
I don't have time to be exhausted. |
[01:42.77] |
You and Mom haven't had dinner together with us |
[01:44.90] |
in almost a full week. |
[01:46.66] |
Yeah, |
[01:47.85] |
I feel bad |
[01:48.50] |
about us not having dinner with the family, |
[01:49.89] |
but our schedules are so different. |
[01:52.75] |
Either I'm at the hospital doing paperwork, |
[01:54.56] |
or Mom is at a committee meeting. |
[01:57.09] |
I frankly don't know what to do about it. |
[02:01.33] |
I'm worried about you and Mom. |
[02:03.65] |
You really have been working too hard. |
[02:06.36] |
Well, |
[02:07.20] |
I think I've had enough of that sandwich. |
[02:08.99] |
You didn't finish it. |
[02:14.06] |
It's not good to eat before going to bed. |
[02:17.97] |
A cookie can't hurt, though. |
[02:19.43] |
Well, |
[02:21.89] |
I'm heading off for bed |
[02:22.84] |
and a good night's sleep. |
[02:25.56] |
Well, good night. |
[02:26.96] |
Good night, Son. |
[02:30.24] |
Good night, Dad. |
[02:30.76] |
I'm going to bed. |
[02:32.10] |
Good night, Philip. |
[02:34.41] |
Haven't you finished balancing that checkbook? |
[02:36.43] |
I found another mistake. |
[02:39.36] |
I'll be off to bed myself in a minute. |
[02:41.59] |
OK. Good night. |
[02:51.69] |
I'm really concerned about them, |
[02:53.00] |
Grandpa. |
[02:54.38] |
Concerned about whom? |
[02:56.02] |
About Mom and Dad. |
[02:58.02] |
They hardly ever see each other. |
[03:00.39] |
Dad often works late, |
[03:02.08] |
and Mom has all these committees she's on. |
[03:04.69] |
What do you propose to do about it? |
[03:07.21] |
You have that look in your eye. |
[03:09.58] |
I don't know, |
[03:10.95] |
but there must be a way |
[03:12.34] |
of getting them to spend more time together. |
[03:14.92] |
Quality time. |
