07x16 - Summer Showers

Post by bunniefuu »

Time...

Is a slippery devil.

Our lives are sudden.

They come and go like...

Like a summer shower.

Oh, my glob!

You got the part!

Ah. ha!
I did?

Well, not that part.

You were terrible.

But you can be
my personal assistant.

Well...

I guess
I have to start somewhere.

Start with my laundry.

Our lives are sudden.

They come and go like
a summer shower.

That was great!

Well, maybe not "great,"

but you were a lot better
than those others.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

- Hey!
- Hey!

- Hi, Viola.
- Hi, dad.

How's my big-sh*t
actress daughter?

Did you get that part
you wanted?

Oh, yeah, the part...

Sure, I got the part.

Well, I think that's great.
Just great.

Seriously,
that's so good to hear.

Sometimes I wonder if maybe
I haven't been the best dad.

Maybe I blew it.

But you getting that part,

that makes my entire life
seem worthwhile!

Mmm.

You're great, kid!

Aww, you're great, dad!

Dad, I have to go.

I have a rehearsal.

That's cool.
Go get 'em, kid.

I do hope
that Nigel had no trouble

at chelmsyhead station.

There are never any taxi cabs
to be found...

What have I found here?!

Is it a little mouse?

People,
look what I found!

It's a little mouse!

Everyone else
is really a square,

working together as a team,
helping the author/director.

Everyone has
the team spirit!

Everyone except
the selfish little mouse!

I'm sorry, I was...

Don't interrupt me
when I'm berating you!

When are we going to
resume rehearsing?

Don't interrupt me
when I'm berating my assistant

for interrupting me...

Unless you want some, too!

Well, no.

I can't remember
what I was saying.

Assistant,
read me back my notes.

Hmm.

You were wrapping it up so
we could get back to rehearsal.

Okay...
Let's rehearse!

Mr. cramforth
will be drenched

if he walks to the cottage
from the station.

Poor suffering Nigel!

Um...

"But he"...

But he is
so awfully amusing.

Coming down
like cats and dogs.

Reminds me
of the rain we had...

Too much water on the coat!

It's not a hurricane!

Again!

Coming down
like cats and...

That's too light!
It's not a drizzle!

Hey, Viola!

Viola!

Here, girl!

Come on,
I want to show you something.

I think it's gonna rain soon,
so I'm gonna show you

what real summer showers
look like.

And I want you to make
little sketches of raindrops

as reference material.

Do you really think
this is worthwhile?

Yes! Gah!

How can I explain this
as simply as possible?

In my play, I don't want to see
big, big gloopy raindrops.

And I don't want to see
teeny-weeny, tiny raindrops.

What I want to see is raindrops
that are just right.

Neither too big nor too...

Stop interrupting me
when I'm trying

to explain things
childishly!

Every element
of "summer showers"

has to have class.

You know,
I may be a princess,

but when people meet me,
they don't think "princess."

They think
"lumpy space princess."

I bet if I was
"Princess Bubblegum buns"

or "sugar plum buns princess"
or something,

things would be
way different.

They have absolutely
no imagination!

I'm the one
who has imagination!

I'm the one
who's special!

I think my play
will prove that...

I've had
a really crummy life.

Everything was okay
when I was a little kid.

And I could just hang out by
myself and make up little games.

Have you tried talking
about this with anyone else?

No!

It's part of your job!

You're lucky,
it's starting to rain.

Now, pay close attention
to these raindrops.

You should fill
the whole sketchbook!

I want to see some classy
raindrops on opening night!

It's so good to see you, Nigel.

Let chelmsford
take your overcoat.

Very well, Tree Trunks.

Her name is Miranda Hobson!

I don't know if I can call
Tree Trunks by that other name.

It seems dishonest.

This play is set
in a country called eng-land.

And in eng-land,
anyone called Tree Trunks

is always called
"Miranda Hobson"

during the summer.

I didn't know that.

Yeah.

So let's... whoa!

How did you get here?

I locked the d...
Never mind.

Have you finally figured out
what rain looks like?

Let's take it from the top!

Coming down
like cats and dogs.

Reminds me of the rain we had
when mother was still alive.

It'll have to do.

Still lots to finish!

Stay sharp!

Keep it classy!

Let's take it from act two!

How lovely you looked
this afternoon, Tree Trunks...

Miranda!

Miranda Hobson.

Oh, Nigel!

You've always made me smile,
even when we met,

as children
at the badminton tournament.

You were such
a mischievous little boy...

And you still are.

Mwah!

I admit
I feel quite sleepy!

The summer showers always
did affect you that way.

I'll let him rest.

After all,
the rain can't last forever.

That wasn't too bad,
actually.

Yes, hello.

Miranda Hobson speaking.

Yes, Ms. Hobson,
you won't remember me,

but my name is wilfrid.

We met in April
at the Chestnut festival

at
St. Margaret's school.

I'm between trains
and I thought I might drop by.

No visitors
to bulkley cottage all season,

and now two in one day!

The doors open in an hour.
Here's a pep talk.

Tonight is your night
to be special,

'cause you're in
a pretty darn special play...

Written by me.

Directed by a pretty special
director... also me.

- Hey, Viola!
- Yes, director LSP?

Where's our leading lady?
Oh, there you are!

What's the matter? You look
like you're going to throw up.

I'm going to have to
back out of the play.

What?!

When I told Mr. pig
about the kissing scene,

he didn't take it well.

Kissing scene?!

K-kissing scene?!

Kissing scene!

I'm dreadfully sorry.

You can't do this to me!

Who else knows
all the lines?!

Who else could possibly
take your place at the 11th hour

and be a big hero!?

Viola!

Your excited gasp
just gave me an idea!

I'll play the part!

She sells seashells
by the seashore.

She sells seashells
by the seashore.

Aah!

I'm sorry!

Are you really here, or are you,
like, an eye floater?

I've been usurped!

I can't believe this is
our last summer here.

But everything changes,
I suppose.

Oh, one thing
hasn't changed...

You've never looked
lovelier...

Miranda Hobson.

I'll let him rest.

After all,
the rain can't last forever.

How long have we been sitting
here on the couch, wilfrid?

Ages and ages.

But not nearly long enough!

One looks for a little
brightness to warm the days.

I thought that Nigel cramforth
had that brightness.

But now I see
that doesn't matter.

For you have a different kind
of brightness...

A kindness that will always
make the cold ham

and bitter rain of eng-land
seem like hot tea,

and sweet strawberry jam,
and summer showers.

Whoo! Viola!
That's my girl!

You were great, kid!

Thanks, but it's not
as if I wrote the play.

That was...

I should be mad...

But you were so amazing!

She's quite the actress.

What?!
No, the acting was fine...

But the rain!

It looked so real
on the overcoats!

How did you do it?

This play is gonna run
for 20 years!

That was my job,
actually...

Putting raindrops
on the overcoats.

I only went on stage
as a last-minute replacement.

You mean you did
the special effects!

You're amazing, kid!

Aww...

You're amazing, dad!

You're amazing!

You're amazing!
