How long will Daddy be gone?

Well, that sorta depends on Daddy.

PSPorter Scavo

Are you two mad at each other?

Yeah, a little, but that's okay. We still love each other very much, but like kids, sometimes grown-ups throw tantrums and need a time-out.

Why can't he take a time-out in his room?

Cause he decided to take it in his pizza place.

No fair, that sounds fun!

Not this pizza place, it's a rat hole. But once your dad comes to his senses and stops being petulant, he'll come home.

PSPorter Scavo

What's petulant?

It means childish, stubborn, careless with my money and your futures.

Huh?

It's a grown-up word, and when daddy comes home, he'll learn a new one: grovel!

[Lynette is giving dinner to the kids, Kayla walks over toward the TV with hers]

Kayla, where are you going?

KKayla

To watch TV.

Oh, sweetie, we don't watch TV during dinner.

KKayla

But my show is on.

Well, I'm sorry, those are the rules.

KKayla

My mommy let me.

Just this once.

[The twins give Lynette 'What gives?' looks, Parker crosses his arms]

Ok, ok, I know what you're thinking, but Kayla's going through a hard time right now, come and sit down. Letting her watch TV is like me letting you eat ice cream when you're sick.

PSPorter Scavo

But she's not sick.

That's true, but she's sad.

I'm sad, I can't watch TV!

Eat your tacos.

[Kids give each other looks of agreement and get up to go over to the TV] Wow, wow, wow, sit your butts down.

It's not fair.

I don't care, we have rules.

PSPorter Scavo

Well she gets to!

She's special, now sit down! Come on.

PSPorter Scavo

Does she get dessert too?

Kayla: Of course I do.
