• Susan Sloan : How's work?

  William Sloan : It's good. I have a full slate of movies that are testing really high. There's one you might really like.

  Susan Sloan : Yeah? What's that?

  William Sloan : It's a movie about a... this twelve-year-old boy who, uh, becomes the president.

  Susan Sloan : The president of... what?

  William Sloan : The United States.

  Susan Sloan : Sounds better than the one about the talking car. How's Graham?

  William Sloan : Well, you know your brother. He's, uh, a little hard to reach. But, uhm, I'm sure he's upset about his friend's death, so, you know, it's tough. When I saw him at the memorial, he seemed fine, though.

  Susan Sloan : [skeptical]  He seemed fine... at Bruce's memorial?

  William Sloan : [slight nod]  Yeah.

  Susan Sloan : [sighs]  So how's Cheryl, by the way?

  William Sloan : [shakes his head]  I'm not seeing Cheryl anymore. Uh...

  Susan Sloan : What? When did this happen?

  William Sloan : That's, uh, something I wanted to talk to you about, actually. Uh... you talked to your Mom lately?

  Susan Sloan : We talked. You know, uh, when she's coherent, which is rarely. Why?

  William Sloan : Well, Mom and I are moving back in together. We're, uh, we're gonna live together again.

  Susan Sloan : She didn't tell me that.

  Susan Sloan : How do you feel about that?

  Susan Sloan : Great! Great. This is a really good move.

  [unenthusiastic] 

  Susan Sloan : Yeah. Really.

  William Sloan : Seriously? I mean, you really think it's great?

  Susan Sloan : Well, to be totally honest, Dad, it totally hit me that you might actually be serious.

  William Sloan : Oh, I am serious. Yes. We're gonna be a family again.

  Susan Sloan : [shakes her head]  Graham and I aren't moving back in... Dad. We're not gonna be a family. You and Mom are gonna be a couple again, but we're not gonna be a family.
