| [00:03.84] | 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. |
