Sandy
Okay. We've got guitar-shaped pancakes for Kevin, Crunchy Cat cereal for Nick and peanut butter with eggs for Joe. (kissed Joe) Ah.
Mom, there's a little too much trees in my eggs.
And I like my dish-water a little less soapy.
I love the underwear that came with my pancakes. It's a great source of fiber.
Sandy
Oh my-- (laughs) I am so sorry. I think I'm doing too many things at once. (walks to Frankie) It's been really hectic since the baby was born the was born.
Mom, I'm eight and a half.
Guys, I think it's time. (tells Nick and Joe)
Sandy
Time for what?
Mom, dad, you both seem a little stressed. So we got you a present-- an exclusive resort vacation.
We were gonna wait for your anniversary, but you guys look like you could use our present right now.
Plus, we couldn't remember when your anniversary was.
Sandy
Guys, that is so sweet. But I can't possibly leave you alone. No.
Sandy
"How many times can you enjoy a sunset balloon ride... over hand-raked prestine beaches while eating exotic delicacies"? Hmm. (takes the brochure and leaves)
Dad, you're gonna love it.
No no no no. I couldn't possibly leave. Who would take care of all this, the band business? All right, I'm the grease that keeps the JONAS machine running smoothly.
Dad, I think we can get by without your grease for a week.
I don't know. I've never left the band business in anybody else's hands before.
Sandy
They give you massages while you float in the lagoon. Get up.
I'll send you a postcard. (Nick gives Joe and Kevin a high five then Nick is excited)
Sandy
Bye. Oh thank you so much. (hugs Kevin)
Sandy
Okay, boys, now remember. no monkey business.
Mom, where would we even get a monkey?
Let alone with a head for business?
(on the phone while holding a business card) Hello, Monkey Land? (monkey squeals) (whispers) I'm gonna have to call you back. (hangs up)
All right, look, I've complied a list here to help you guys define "monkey business." Let's call this daddy's big list of don'ts. (unfolds the list and hands it to Joe but Joe is shocked) (Joe looks at the long list)
Sandy
Come on, it's time to leave all your cares and worries behind.
Well, just watch the junk food. And don't fry your eyes playing video games.
Sandy
Tom! Dolphins are waiting patiently to swim with. (exits)
Yes, dear. (leaves) (door closes)
Yea-- (Joe is about to be excited but Nick stops him)
You know, don't let any strange people into the house, okay? (runs back into the house) And stay away from my pinecone collection and pretty much everything that's breakable. And leave the computer on so we can video chat while we're gone.
BMBig Man
(enters) Sorry, chief. Time to have fun. (Tom leaves) This man needs a vacation. Lock the doors quick. (leaves then Kevin closes the doors)
All right, now you're good. (tells Joe)
Yes! (throws the list) Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Come on! Yeah!
We've gotta get these kids out of here.
I've tried, but they're like rabbits-- wild rabbits who love to party.
Isn't that a little renduant? All rabbits love to party.
I just hope dad doesn't call again.
CVComputer voice
Chat request. (Nick looks at Kevin and Joe)
(opens the computer again and turns it on) Answer it. (he, Joe and Kevin see their mom video chatting them)
Sandy
Hi, kids.
Hi, mom. (he, Joe and Kevin wave to her) We thought you were dad.
Sandy
If you think I'm dad, I'm definitely not wearing that bikini I packed.
Dad's been calling like every five minutes.
Sandy
Well, you know, your father. He gets worried if he's got nothing to worry about.
Well, tell him, to go get worried because there's nothing to be worried about here.
Yeah, mom, no party, no broken vase. (two girls are on the couch (laughing) No jumping on the couch! No jumping on the couch.
Sandy
Oh, I'm not worried. Ever since you were little, you guys have been trustworthy and responsible, not to mention adorable.
KJKevin, Joe and Nick
Thanks, mom.
Sandy
I mean, soon you'll be moving out on your own. And I won't get to spend as much time with you, what with all the touring and-- you know what? I don't want to spend another minute away from you. I don't. (picks up the phone and calls the pilot) Captain Boulder, we're turning this jet around. We're going home... now. (hangs up the phone)
I think I liked it better when dad called.
(rings loudly) Mom and dad alert! Places! (Kevin, Joe and Nick are putting back everything in their right place) (Tom opens the door for him and Sandy then they enter the house)
Sandy
Hey, guys, we're back! (Kevin is playing chess with Frankie, Nick is on his guitar and writing a song while Joe is painting a picture)
The place looks spotless, Joe's not a blond. And it looks like Frankie's about to beat Kevin in speed chess. (walks to Kevin and Frankie)
Game. Well, everything, looks normal to me.
Just taking care of business, dad. (puts the guitar on the couch)
Sandy
(squeals happily) I missed you guys so much. (Kevin, Nick, Joe and Frankie are walking to Sandy) (Sandy happily hugs Kevin, Joe, Nick and
Sandy
We would’ve been home sooner, but the plane made an unexpected stop.
She doesn’t mean, “In mid-air”.
Sandy
(tells Tom) See, I told you there was nothing to worry about. (stops hugging then notices the vase) Hey, who moved grandma's vase? (walks to the table) You guys know how fragile this is. (Tom walk to her) (she picks up part of the vase) Grandma's vase. (she hands the top of the vase to Tom) (the bouncer walks by while holding the disco ball) (Frankie pays the bouncer money then leaves)
Did anything happen that we should know about? (Sandy is mad) (he asks Kevin, Joe, Nick and Frankie)
Why do you ask? (four members of the fan club walks by carrying cleaning supplies and leave)
Sandy
Are you sure there's nothing you'd like to explain to us?
Sandy
Aww.
We missed you. (he, Joe and Nick walk to Tom and Sandy to give them a hug)
We missed you too. (zapping) (Kevin, Joe, Nick, Frankie, Sandy and Tom are noticing the electrocuted fridge) (buzzes)
KNKevin and Nick
Joe was in charge! (Joe looks at Kevin and Nick)
Sandy
Oh yeah.
We definitely needed this.
Sandy
Mm-hmm.
And you know what? For the first time, I'm not worried about the boys at all. (Frankie holds a leaf and lets it give Sandy a breeze)
Sandy
(chuckles) (Joe walks to Sandy and Tom to give beverages to them) Oh, thank you. (takes a beverage from the tray)
(also takes a beverage from the tray) Thank you. Mm. (drinks)
Sandy
This is delicious. (drinks)
(offers) Braid your hair, ma'am?
Sandy
No, thank you.
Oh, but you know what? A foot massage would be nice. What do you think, hon?
Sandy
Ooh... Yeah. (agrees) (Kevin, Joe, Nick and Frankie stop what they're doing and four of them kneel down then Joe and Frankie massage sunscreen on Sandy's feet while Kevin and Nick massage sunscreen on Tom's feet)
Why couldn't you just ground us like normal parents? (Kevin shakes his head) (Tom and Sandy toast each other then they drink)
