As Georgie and Jim start fixing up an old car, Georgie worries Connor is being left out. Meanwhile, Audrey and Mandy find it a challenge to work together on decorating CeeCee's nursery.
Quote from Georgie
Georgie: So, listen, me and your dad are driving to Plano to pick up a part for the Mustang. I was thinking maybe you'd like to join us.
Connor: Did my mother put you up to this?
Georgie: No, I just thought a road trip would be a fun way for you and me to get to know each other.
Connor: If you don't mind, I prefer to remain a man of mystery.
Georgie: Come on, go with us. What do you say?
Connor: Thank you for the invitation.
Georgie: Hey, I ain't falling for that again. It's a yes or no.
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: So, I understand Connor will be joining you on your road trip.
Jim: Uh-huh.
Audrey: That's nice.
Jim: It's something.
Audrey: Thank you for including him.
Jim: Don't thank me. Thank Georgie.
Audrey: Oh. [chuckles] We both know I won't be doing that.
Quote from Jim
Jim: This nursery deal with you and Mandy whose idea was that?
Audrey: Mine.
Jim: You nervous?
Audrey: A little. You?
Jim: Terrified.
Audrey: Want to switch? I go with Connor. You stay with Amanda.
Jim: Oh. [both laughing] Wait, is that really an option?
Quote from Jim
Mandy: Hey, what you doing?
Audrey: Oh, I picked up some magazines. I thought we could look through them for baby room ideas.
Mandy: Oh, fun. Texas Monthly?
Audrey: That's for your dad's bathroom reading.
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: What do you think about this?
Mandy: Oh, I like the color. Not sure about all the princess stuff.
Audrey: What's wrong with princess stuff?
Mandy: Oh, nothing, it's just, you know, why can't it be dinosaurs or astronauts?
Audrey: Well, it can, if you want her to be a tomboy.
Mandy: Dinosaurs do not make tomboys. I'm just saying that she can be anything.
Audrey: Except a princess.
Quote from Audrey
Mandy: Okay, why don't we just start with a color?
Audrey: What about yellow?
Mandy: Yellow's good, I love yellow.
Audrey: Terrific. Are sunflowers too feminine for you?
Mandy: Sunflowers are fine.
Audrey: See, we can do this. Now, where do we stand on unicorns?
Mandy: Kind of phallic, isn't it?
Audrey: Oh, get your mind out of the gutter. [looks at the magazine] Yeah, we can keep looking.
Quote from Georgie
Georgie: All right, got all the road trip supplies we need. Jerky, map, bottle for peeing.
Jim: You realize we can pull over?
Georgie: Yeah, but where's the challenge in that?
Quote from Connor
Connor: I brought some music.
Jim: Oh, let's fire it up.
[Connor puts on his headphones and plays his Walkman cassette player]
Jim: Of course.
Georgie: It's fine, he's having fun.
Jim: Yeah, whatever you say.
Connor: [loudly] Pass the jerky!
Quote from Audrey
Mandy: [sighs] Hate to say it, but I'm a little nervous about CeeCee sleeping all alone.
Audrey: Oh, she'llbe fine.
Mandy: Well, what about me? It's a big change for me.
Audrey: I understand. I cried the first night you spent in your own room.
Mandy: You did not.
Audrey: Of course I did. You were my precious little baby.
Mandy: Aw.
Audrey: Then you started talking and ruined everything.
Mandy: [sarcastically] Aw.
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: Oh, it'll inspire CeeCee to have a love of reading and learning and... and staying in school.
Mandy: "Staying in school?"
Audrey: Is that a bad thing?
Mandy: Go ahead, just say it.
Audrey: Say what?
Mandy: Unlike her father.
Audrey: I just want her to achieve all her dreams.
Mandy: Unlike her mother.
Audrey: Well, since you brought it up, you always wanted to be a TV news reporter and instead-
Mandy: Instead I'm a waitress.
Audrey: Isn't it nice how we can finish each other's sentences?
Quote from Jim
Connor: [humming]
Georgie: Lives in his own world, don't he?
Jim: Yep.
Georgie: Seems like a happy world.
Jim: I guess.
Georgie: Your world, on the other hand, a little tense.
Jim: It's complicated.
Georgie: Which part?
Jim: Part where his mother and I are gonna be gone someday and I don't know what happens to him.
Georgie: I'm sure he'll find his way.
Jim: Yeah, you might be that way.
Georgie: What's that mean?
Jim: He might be living over your garage.
Georgie: Oh. Well, CeeCee'll have a fun uncle to play with.
Jim: Think Mandy's gonna be okay with that?
Georgie: Oh. Well, you and Mrs. McAllister are gonna live a long, long life.
Jim: Yeah, I'll do my best.
Quote from Jim
Georgie: Me and your dad are up here talking about the future, and I was wondering where you see yourself in ten, 20 years?
Connor: Let me guess, my father thinks I'll never amount to anything.
Jim: I-I didn't say that.
Georgie: He didn't.
Connor: Did he say something like that?
Georgie: That he did, yes.
Jim: Georgie.
Georgie: I don't want to lie to him.
Jim: [sighs] You want the truth? You're 26 years old, you live over the garage, you ain't never had a job.
Connor: Sorry I make you angry.
Jim: I'm not angry. I'm scared. [Connor puts his headphones back on] [Jim sighs]
Georgie: A lot to think about. Heavy stuff. [Jim exhales while looking at Georgie] Yep.
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: I remember when you were in high school and hung up those beads.
Mandy: Yeah, you hated them.
Audrey: Yes, but it was your room and I gave you the freedom to decorate as you saw fit.
Mandy: You said it looked like an opium den.
Audrey: Maybe I meant it as a compliment?
Quote from Mandy
Mandy: What do you want, Mom?
Audrey: [sighs] I want to apologize.
Mandy: Okay. Accepted. Go away.
Audrey: Amanda, you have so much potential, it's just hard for me to see you stuck.
Mandy: [scoffs] I'm not stuck.
Audrey: You're living in your childhood bedroom, working a dead-end job.
Mandy: It's temporary.
Audrey: That's what I told myself when I gave up on my dream.
Mandy: To be the Wicked Witch of the West?
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: I never expected my whole life to be in Medford.
Mandy: Well, where did you think it would be?
Audrey: I thought I'd live in Washington and be chief of staff for Lyndon Johnson.
Mandy: Really? You were a Democrat?
Audrey: I was young once, too, Amanda.
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: But I got married, and your father opened his tire store and life just happened.
Mandy: Yeah, well, life kind of happened to me, too.
Audrey: Or did Georgie happen to you?
Mandy: Stop blaming Georgie. It's my fault, too.
Audrey: Fine, I blame both of you.
Mandy: [quietly] Thank you.
Audrey: All I want is for you to have the things in life I never got.
Mandy: I know. I'm sure having me and Connor didn't help with your dreams.
Audrey: You were my firstborn. It was mostly you.
Quote from Georgie
Jim: This road trip's feeling like a bust.
Georgie: I've been on worse.
Jim: Than this?
Georgie: Oh, yeah. Once, my dad took me and Sheldon to Florida to see the space shuttle launch.
Jim: Oh, I always wanted to see that.
Georgie: Me, too. It got rained out. Spent the whole time in a motel room listening to Sheldon complain.
Jim: You know, I can't imagine what it must've been like for you to grow up with a brother like that.
Georgie: No, what I'm most proud of is how many times I kept his sister from killing him.
Quote from Connor
Jim: What the hell?
Connor: You folks done here?
Jim: What are you doing?
Connor: You're scared I don't have a job. I saw a help wanted sign, I got a job.
Georgie: Congratulations.
Jim: No congratulations. Take that stuff off and let's go home.
Connor: Shouldn't I give them two weeks' notice?
Jim: Just... get in the truck.
Quote from Connor
Connor: Everything I do makes him mad.
Georgie: He's just worried about you.
Connor: I worry about me, too.
Georgie: Yeah, well, I got a feeling everything's gonna work out for you.
Connor: How would you know?
Georgie: It's just a feeling.
Connor: Thank you.
Georgie: [pats Connor on the shoulder] Let's go home.
Connor: Should I punch out?
Georgie: I think you'll be okay. Maybe lose the apron.
Quote from Connor
Connor: Hello, we're back.
Audrey: Hi, how was your trip?
Connor: Not good. Dad and I fought a lot.
Audrey: Well, your sister and I didn't have the best day, either.
Connor: [chuckles] Those two, huh? Sure glad Georgie was there.
Audrey: That was a good thing?
Connor: Yes, he's a great person.
