You’re going to Chilton whether you want to or not. Monday morning, you will be
there, end of story. - We’ll see. Yeah we will.
Games, changes and fears. Games, changes and fears. When will they go from here. When will they stop. I believe that fate... 'Okay. One, two.. Oh, jeez. I swear I don’t know what happened. It’s not important. I made that dish a hundred times. It never exploded. Please, forget it. Oh, God, I killed a Viking, you should fire me or make me pay the cost of a new stove out of my paycheck. - Whatever you want. - Can’t afford a new stove! Those things are expensive. Sookie, please. I am begging you, pull yourself together, okay? I got no sleep last night and I put my contacts in backwards. Rory’s still mad at you, huh? Hey, I'm not so crazy about her either. It was a fight. Mothers and daughters fight. No, we don’t fight. We never fight. You told me to tell you when your daughter arrived. She’s here and she’s sitting in my chair. Hold on just a minute. And you are the one left standing. That is a funny, funny thing, no? Hey, no muumuu today. You know what's weird, I kind of miss it. You left a note to meet here. - Thought you might wanna work. - Make a little extra cash. - Fine. You’re not giving me the "Mommy Dearest" treatment ever, are ya?

You wanted me here, I’m here. Should I do something or
what? Yeah, go home. Dinner’s at seven. Be ready to go. - Fine. - Fine. Ah, my chair. So, do we go in or do we just stand here reenacting 'The Little Match Girl'? Okay, look, I know you and me are having a thing here. And I know you hate me but I need you to be
civil. At least through dinner, on the way home you can pull Menendez. - Deal? - Fine.
