[ALISON]
September 15
Just had a good talk with Dad, and I feel so much better! Underline, underline, underline
I'm going to spend four years reading books and drawing
And I feel so relieved to let go of the insane idea that I'm supposed to throw myself out into the world—
[MEDIUM ALISON]
—It's not the world anyway
It's Oberlin College
[ALISON]
Wow. I had no idea what was coming
[BRUCE]
Sorry the kids must have been cleaning in here
Uh this is the one we spoke about, the cherry—quite popular
[PETE]
This?
[BRUCE]
Uh, also quite popular
Why don't we take the brochures into the office where you can look them over and—
[PETE]
So you say we won't see any other bruises?
[BRUCE]
No, no
We remove all signs of trauma
Don't worry, Pete
She will look very peaceful
[PETE]
Thank you. Thanks, Bruce
[BRUCE]
Of course. Uh, shall we?
[PETE]
No...
I'll, uh, I'll just take these home
[BRUCE]
Good idea. Take them home, look them over, and give me a call
Pete, get some rest
Kids!
Get out of there! Now!

When you break your neck, is it just like "crack" you're instantly dead?
[SMALL ALISON]
You guys, we gotta practice our commercial
[CHRISTIAN]
Yeah, we messed it up before
[JOHN]
Should we start from the top?
[CHRISTIAN]
Yeah
[JOHN]
Wait, should we say "Fun Home"?
We only call it that in the family
[SMALL ALISON]
It's our commercial
We can do what we want
[JOHN]
I guess it's okay
Places everybody!
[SMALL ALISON]
Fun Home commercial—Take seven-million-billion-thousand!
