Now it says "Error
404: Server not found."

I'll never
understand this thing.

Mom, you misspelled the URL.

- The what?
- URL.

You are lost.

- Very funny.
- It means

“uniform resource beater.“

Okay, now just remember what...

Km showed me.

How'd you do that?

She's a kid. She
knows computers.

I like buying my antiques
the old-fashioned way.

My turn! My turn!

Nope. It's mine,
Millie. Got homework.

But Marshmallow.

Marshmallow?
- The kindergarten bunny.

He needs to go on a diet.

Fine. I'll check

bunny Weight Watcher
sites for one minute.

There was a time when families

used to gather
around the hearth.

Now they gather
around the hard drive.

I like computers, though.

They're a bridge
across the entire world.

And they seem to bring
out the human urge to chat.

That and play solitaire.

But is that really what
God created man to do?

Tess, have you ever considered
opening your own Web site?

Keyword: grouchy.

You two can take this lightly,

but a computer
is not just a toy.

It defines a personality.

Take these Radcliffs
for an example.

Kate lives in the 19th century
with her antiques and her books.

Her husband lives
in the 20th century.

Wide-screen TV, microwave ovens.

But their children live
in the 21st century:

the Computer Age.

Daddy, Daddy, Daddy,
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy,

- Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!
- What?

The computer said
Marshmallow's not fat;

he's going to have a baby.

- No kidding.
- Yeah.

Isn't that neat?

Sure.

You saving this?
I'm throwing it away.

How'd he get pregnant?

Hawaii.

Welcome to Maui.

What?

Come on in. The water's fine.

Sarah, what are you doing?

I don't know. I don't know.

I'm researching Hawaii,
and this came up.

- Shut it down right now.
- I'm trying, Dad.

- It won't let me exit.
- I'll take care of it.

Finish your homework
in your room.

Millie, show me your ballet.

If you're looking
for sexy lingerie,

you've come to the right place.

Watch this, Millie.

She's just a child, Tess.

But the computer
doesn't know that, baby.

Technology can
do wonderful things,

but it's just a tool,
like a hammer.

It can build a house...
or tear one down.

Let's go. Pancakes
are going to get cold.

I don't think it's
that big a deal.

My child sits at a computer,
types the word "Hawaii"

and p*rn comes up?

In our house?

I just feel
violated... That's all.

Oh, I got a dealer
coming into the shop early.

One for the road?

- Yes.
- Bye.

Morning.

- Hi, Mrs. Radcliff.
- Hi, Kiki.

Hey, Mr. R.

Sarah ready?

Sarah, Kim's here.

Coming!

- Coo| old table.
- Yeah.

It's one of my wife's antiques.

You know, it would make
an awesome computer table

if you just drilled a
hole in it for the cables.

I'll be sure to pass
that off to my wife.

Speaking of old, your
printer's from, like, 1995.

Okay, I'm ready.

- Bye, Daddy.
- Bye.

Come on.

Your family is, like,
so 20th century.

I'm going to have to
save you somehow.

Hi, Daddy. Bye, Daddy.

Say hi to Marshmallow for me.

Okay.

Hello.

Hi. I'm over here dusting.

Oh, for Heaven sakes.

A cathedral-top picture
frame frontier telephone.

- It's gorgeous.
- I was hoping

to put it on consignment.

Absolutely not.

I'll buy it myself.

That's the problem with
running a place like this.

I can't bear to sell anything.

You love to give
history a home, huh?

Coffee pots.

Graniteware,
turn of the century.

Green swirl.

That's lovely.

Yes.

I'm Kate.

Oh. I'm Monica.

I think I was born
in the wrong century.

I read Pride and Prejudice

and mourn the demise
of manners and civility.

I love old teaspoons.

My mother gave me
one when I was 17.

May I help you?

Oh, no, thank you.
I'm just looking.

I like everything old:
teaspoons, forks, ladles.

Recipes?

If you like meat loaf,

I'm making my
grandmother's recipe tonight.

I would love that.

All right.

All right, children.

It's time for lunch.

Badger Group, you're
behind Moose Group.

Come on. Let's make a line.

Very good.

Make a line.

Where's my tail feather?

Here I am.

I wore my tail feather hat today

'cause I knew I was
going to be tail feather.

That's wonderful, baby.

You and I will
bring up the rear.

Everybody in line.

Now, no running.

Lunch is not going anywhere.

All right, come on.
Let's step right along.

We're going to have
a real nice lunch.

That's good. That's very good.

If Marshmallow's
a boy, will he be

a mommy or a daddy
when he has his babies?

Well, sweetheart, it-it
takes a mommy bunny

and a daddy bunny
to make a baby bunny.

Uh, if you need any
more information than that,

you'll have to ask your
own mommy and daddy.

Okay.

This is called a cybercafé.

It's where cool people
like me and soon to be you

go and hang out on
the Internet together.

You should have seen the
Web site I saw last night.

It was gross.

- What do you mean?
- Okay, well,

all I did was type in
"Hawaiian" something,

and then all of a
sudden, there's these

naked people dancing on a beach.

It got really weird.

Did you get ambushed
on the Internet?

She did.

Sarah, this is Andrew.

- He runs the place.
- Hi.

Hi. I'm sorry that happened.

It won't happen here, though.

We have filters on
all the computers,

so we can keep
out the bad stuff.

You know, actually, uh,
you can use them at home.

I can show you how if you want.

Uh, that's for
babies, but... thanks.

Oh, there's the order.
It's still in Des Moines.

All right.

I'll e-mail him
and let him know.

It's amazing what
computers can do now, huh?

Yeah, I guess.

But you won't believe what
happened to my kid last night.

She was looking up Hawaii,

and she clicked
onto a p*rn site.

Oh, sure, they're everywhere.

Tell you, one time, I was
trying to order coffee beans,

got some nasty stuff.

And it's free.

You're kidding.

No, for real.

Check this out.

Things are heating up in here.

It's a whole new
world, my friend.

Monica, more gravy?

Oh, yes. Thank you.

You know, if you're having
trouble with that computer,

there's a place
down the street...

Oh, yeah. I've been there.

- The cybercafé?
- Yes.

Well, a friend of
mine runs that place.

His name is Andrew, and he
knows all about the Internet.

This is great.

You know, meat loaf always
makes me think of Harry Truman.

'Cause I think he was
underrated, like meat loaf.

So, you like antiques, Harry
Truman, and computers.

You're a three-century
woman, Monica.

More centuries than
you would know, Kate.

Does that Andrew guy
know about rabbits?

I'm sure that if he doesn't,

he could look it
up on the Internet.

Man, I remember
when we just went

to the library for that.

Wasn't so... surprising.

Things are heating up in here.

Charlie.

I just saw your work
station's Internet traffic.

You know, I'm
not the kind of guy

who likes to pry into my
employees' personal lives.

I got enough to do without that.

It's not what you think.

Doesn't matter what I think.

It's what I know.

You're on this...
this kind of a site.

It's the second time this week.

We're on a network.
Remember, Charlie?

I mean, we're all
connected here.

I was just trying to
see whether or not...

You know we have a
zero-tolerance policy.

This is gonna go on your record,

and the boys upstairs
will probably let you go.

Or you can

just resign now and
no one will ever know.

Your choice, Charlie.

What?

No, you can't...

Sorry.

Copy.

Like that?

Yeah, just like that.

See, you're gonna be
a pro before you know it.

What are you two
doing over there?

Downloading a
picture of a sunset

for Sarah's Hawaii report.

- Doing what?
- Downloading.

It's when you take
something off an Internet site.

Take it? Is that legal?

Uh, yeah.

My mom thinks a
Pentium Processor

is something that chops up food.

I heard that.

Just wait until you're looking

for a Victorian
wedding dress, my dear.

Don't hold your breath.

This will look a whole lot
better off my color printer.

Let's go over there.

Is that okay, Mom?

Dinner's at 6:00.

Hi, Daddy.

Bye, Daddy.

Bye.

What are you doing home?

It's 4:00.

Yeah.

Charlie?

What is it?

I don't know what
makes me angrier,

that that filth got you fired

or that it all started
in our house.

Look, it was an accident.

Sarah showed it to me,

and then I
mentioned it to Bernie,

and then he showed the
site that he accidentally found.

It e-mailed me
back the next day.

So, I opened up my e-mail,

and I clicked it on.

But you shut it off
right away, right?

Right.

So, how could they blame you?

That is... That is so unfair.

Well, I think we need to
get rid of that computer.

- What?
- Charlie, we have been

totally involved with Sarah
and Millie since they were born.

We always know where they are.

We know when they'll be home.

We know their friends.

We've kept them safe.

But now there's another world

inside that computer

that we don't know
how to protect them from.

Sarah's only 13.

A young 13.

Kate, I have to take
some responsibility here.

I mean, I can't
blame the computer.

Would you bring p*rn
pictures into our home?

No, of course not.

The computer did.

Things are heating up in here.

The babies are coming soon, huh?

Oh, any day now.

So, I'll bring in
a cabbage leaf.

A what?

A cabbage leaf for
the Easter Bunny

to put the baby bunnies under
when he drops them from the sky.

Uh, have you talked

to your mommy and
daddy about this?

No.

I think it would be a good idea

if you talked to your
mommy and daddy about this.

There's your picture.

Thank you.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I, uh, I
heard that you guys

buy used computers?

Oh, it's nice.

Why you selling it?

Long story.

I, uh, lost my job.

- Money's kind of tight.
- You know,

I've got a unit in the
shop for repair now,

so what if I rent yours
until mine gets out?

I'll give you free access.

You can use the
place to find a job.

Does that include free coffee?

Black, cream, sugar,
whatever you like.

Deal. Black.

All right.

So, do you like it?

You know, we used
to have one of these

when I was a little girl.

We were the only
kids on the block

who had to watch
Bonanza in black and white.

What a great memory.

Well, we upgraded just in time

to see the Vietnam
w*r in living color

right in our own home.

I'll never forget sitting there,

watching the news,
looking for my dad.

I never found him.

You lost your father in the w*r?

Yeah.

After that, I pretty much

lost interest in most
of the 20th century, too.

Mom! Mom, Mom.

Mom, we've been robbed.

- What? Wait, slow down.
- Okay.

I went home from school,
and the computer was gone.

It wasn't stolen,
Sarah. It was deleted.

- What?
- We decided

to be a computerless family.

It's complicated;
it's dangerous;

- and it's gone.
- I can't believe this.

Mom, I really, really
need that computer.

We were fine before we got it.

We'll be fine without it.

Mom, I'm going to endure

this antiquarian obsession
you have until I'm 18.

Then you're on your own.

How far have you
ever gone with a boy?

I kissed Jimmy D at camp once.

What about you?

- Farther.
- No, you haven't.

Have, too.

I think it's weird to
think about going farther.

Kind of like how I felt

when I went on that
Web site the other day.

Let's go look at it again.

I don't know.

Oh, come on. You
know you want to.

Um...

My genius parents
got rid of our computer,

but I bet our
username still works.

Okay, "Hawaiian Mysteries."

Welcome to Maui.

Whoa.

- I told you.
- Oh, my Go...

I have got to remember this one.

I don't know. It's
not that romantic.

You want romance?

What is this?

Oh, you're so out of it.

It's called a chat room.

It's where you can
talk to boys online,

back and forth about
anything you want.

Right.

Oh, deems.

Now what do I do.

Uh, say something back.

"Hey."

"Sarah."

He wants to know
my age. What do I do?

But I'm only 13.

Hello, he doesn't
have to know that.

Hey, you surfing?

No, no.

Not interested.

Just updating my résumé.

What do you
think of this format?

Yeah, looks great.

Never hurts to
experiment a little.

Yeah.

Except when it
costs you your job.

I, uh...

I accidentally hooked
into this p*rn site

at work, and... I
got popped for it.

Accidentally?
- Yeah.

I mean, at first.

You know what I mean.

It was weird and twisted and...

fascinating all
at the same time.

Oh, man.

No wonder this country's
in the shape it's in.

I mean, you try to be
a decent human being,

you keep your nose clean,
you stay out of trouble,

and, ham, you plug
in the computer,

and trouble finds you.

Now I got that stuff
in my head, and..

Can't get it out.

Well, you know, your
brain is like a computer.

You decide what to input,
but the problem is sometimes

that those files
don't get deleted.

Well, the computer's
out of the house now,

so I won't be tempted.

My daughters will be
safe from all that stuff.

So, you have... I
have... I have 13.

One...

Oh, look, it's him.
It's your boyfriend.

He's not my boyfriend.

Uh, he wants to send
you a picture of him.

"Yes."

He's so polite.

Oh, he's a hottie.

Sarah.

Uh-oh, what do I do?

Uh, send him a picture back.

I'll take a picture of you
with my digital camera.

But he's 16, and
I look like I'm 11.

Hon, don't worry about it.

You'll look great when
I'm through with you.

Smile.

But are you sure
that this lipstick

doesn't make me
look too much like a...

I told you. Don't
worry about it.

Okay, okay.

Dean is going to love this.

Hope so.

Okay.

You looked really
good in the picture.

Here it goes.

How long do I let this boil?

Six minutes. And not too
much garlic in the sauce.

You know, I was
hoping I'd had a job

before I'd have to make sauce.

Oh, what's Millie's
teacher doing here?

- Hey.
- Hi, Mommy.

Hi, sweetheart. Hi, Tess.

- Hi.
- What's all this?

Well, it's Millie's turn

to babysit Marshmallow
for the weekend.

If you have no objections.

Please, please,
please, please, please?!

I feel it my duty to warn
you, she's almost due.

If you know what I mean.

Oh, I see. We start the
weekend with one Marshmallow,

and then by Monday,
we have a whole bagful.

I wonder whose idea that was.

Mommy, can I take
Marshmallow to my room?

Sure, sweetie.

There you are, darling.

Thanks for bringing
her home, Tess.

All she talks about
are those rabbits.

Well, actually, I would like
to talk about that myself.

It seems that Millie's
been explaining

the concept of babies
to her classmates.

Especially the part
about the cabbage leaf

and the flying rabbits?

- Oh, dear.
- We'||, uh, we'll sit down

and talk to her tonight.

I can't do it tonight.

I won't be home till
after she's in bed.

Well, it's up to you.

But if it were me, I'd explain
it before Marshmallow does.

Will do. Thanks, Tess.

It's my pleasure.

And have a fun
bunnysitting weekend.

You've been talking to that
Dean guy for, like, two hours.

In chat years, that's
like a relationship.

He likes my eyes! Look!

"You must have a
beautiful soul." Sarah!

Oh, and guess where he lives?

I don't know, heaven?

Right here in Milwaukee.

Get out of here.

Yes, isn't that the coolest?

Oh, and I told him
how old I really was.

Seriously?

Yeah, he didn't even
care that I was only 13.

Isn't that awesome?
- Totally.

Look at that.

It's amazing, isn't it?

People are born,
they live, and they die,

but things like the Eiffel
Tower just keep standing.

Well, that's why
I love antiques.

Evidence of who came before.

Hmm.

Oh, my goodness.

What is it?

In the old days, they used
to call them "art studies,"

but it was just another
excuse to look at naked ladies.

But at least then you
had to risk your reputation

to look at this stuff.

Today, they just pipe
it right into your home.

It's true. Nothing
new under the sun.

Hi, Monica. Well, hello, Sara.

Mom, I'm gonna go over
to Kiki's for homework.

What's the sudden need
to go to Kiki's all the time?

What about the library?

Mom, hello? She's,
like, my best friend.

Fine.

13 is such an enjoyable age.

She's still upset with us about
getting rid of the computer.

Would you reconsider?

Monica, I have a duty
to protect my children.

But you can't keep a child
locked up in the house forever.

That's why parents teach
their children to look both ways

before they cross the road.

Because sooner or later,

they're going to have
to cross by themselves.

So you think I'm wrong?

I just think that computers
are here to stay...

like the Eiffel Tower.

Hmm.

Last week you
never chatted online;

you never downloaded
before; you never e-mailed;

and now you're,
like, the e-mail queen.

Oh, I got another one from Dean.

He wants to meet me.

- No.
- Yes, tomorrow.

What are you gonna do?

Well, I'm gonna say I'm
going to the mall with you.

I don't know.

You got me into this.

Look. He's nervous.

Isn't that the most
adorable thing in the world?

Yes.

Do you want me to go with you?

Oh, no, he's mine.

This is so romantic.

Hey, Charlie, how's it going?

I thought I'd clean up
my résumé once more

before I mail 'em out.

Yeah? You gonna
mail it or e-mail it?

What do you mean?

Well, if you e-mail it,
you can send it out, like,

a hundred résumés in a second.

It could take you half
the time to find a job

if you do it online.

But online is how I lost my job.

Yeah, well, maybe you might want

to give that some
thought, you know?

You'd be surprised at how
much help the Internet can be.

Andrew, you remember what
you said about how hard it is

to get something out of your
mind once you put it in there?

Yeah.

Well... I'm there. Really there.

Charlie, are you sure that
I'm the one that you want

to be sharing this with?

So I'm gonna give Andrew

a list of companies,

and, and then he'll send
out some résumés for me.

That's great.

You know... things don't feel

as close with us
as they used to.

It's not some
out-of-a-job thing, is it?

I got something I need
to talk to you about.

You know those Web
sites I saw at the office?

Uh, I didn't click off
as fast as I said I did.

You lied to me?

Yeah.

Sorry.

I was embarrassed.

I just... I feel awful. I ju...

I just got caught up.

But I never, I never thought
of myself like that before.

It's... They weren't
just pictures.

They were, they were
scenes and... fantasies.

And at first, it felt
uncomfortable.

But then after a
while, it was like...

I was there, and that
they wanted me there.

And now I got
those images in here,

and I can't get rid of them.

So when I'm with you,
it's like it's you and me

and... and those pictures.

Charlie...

are you telling me you're
hooked on those things?

No, I'm just trying to
be honest with you.

I just want you to
understand what...

what I'm dealing with.

I don't know.

Maybe that's what's
getting in the way of us.

Two weeks ago,
everything was fine.

Watch me! Watch me!

- Hi.
- Hi.

You look different
from your picture.

Dean?

Yeah.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You're not 16.

I was afraid if you
knew I was older,

you wouldn't want to meet me.

Is it a problem?

I don't know. I'm just
surprised; that's all.

Your eyes are even
more amazing in person.

Really?

I should have
told you the truth.

That was dumb, huh?

It's okay. I mean, everybody
exaggerates online, right?

Right.

How old are you?

Nineteen.

I don't know any
19-year-olds guys.

You know me.

Not really.

Sure, you do.

Online, you find out
who people really are.

I mean, on the inside

How they feel about things.

I mean, without all
that junk about looks

and... you know?

Yeah, I guess that's true, huh?

Yeah.

If you're hungry, there's a
good place around the corner.

Okay.

Uh, I forgot my wallet.

You mind if I stop by my
place and pick it up on the way?

- Where do you live?
- I got a little

apartment right over there.

You have your own place?

Well, I just moved out of
my mom and dad's place.

You can wait here.

No, it's cool.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Okay.

One little girl...

types one single
word into a computer,

nobody's watching, and
nobody knew enough

about how it
works to prevent it.

One unprotected moment,
and a man has lost his job,

and his marriage
has lost its joy,

and his daughter
might lose her life.

You better get going, Andrew.

Hey. Nice surprise.

- Is Sarah with you?
- No.

- Thought she was at the library.
- She's not at the library.

She's not at Kiki's.

I've been trying to
call you for two hours.

Don't they answer the
phone around here?

Calm down.

We'll just deal with one
thing at a time, okay?

Millie, uh, go over there.

Sit down. Don't touch anything.

Andrew, we got to go.

You user ID name
is radfam, right?

Yeah, but that's when we
had a computer at home.

You never canceled the account.

No, not yet.

I don't know what you're
doing, but please stop.

We don't use the
Internet anymore.

- What's this all about?
- Charlie,

I don't have a lot of time
to explain, but think about it.

Something evil

has begun to att*ck your family.

Not the Internet, but something
that will use any open door

to walk through and try
to destroy what is good.

And when that happens,

God sometimes sends His angels

to fight the evil.

And that's why we're here.

I know this is hard to
believe, but you must believe it,

and you must see what
is here on the Internet

to help you understand.

Sarah has been going online

and talking with someone
that she met in a chat room.

That's impossible. We
got rid of the computer.

Kate, you can log
on from any computer.

I don't understand.

There it is.

What is this?

Oh, man, she's been using
the Internet with our old ID.

That's why she's been
hanging out at Kiki's so much.

What is dean16?

He's not 16.

And he's a very dangerous man.

Sarah is with him right now.

Oh, God help us.

- That's why we're here.
- Let's go.

Now, go on, I'll
take Millie home.

Go on.

Come on in.

Sorry about the mess,

but rent's cheap and
nobody bothers me.

So...
- Hey, you want a soda?
- No, thanks.

We're just getting
your wallet, right?

Oh, right. I-I got this new
CD I want you to hear,

and-and then we'll leave.

Okay.

♪♪

Thanks.

Good song.

What are these?

I though you didn't,
um, drink or smoke?

Oh, they-they're not mine.

Whose are they?

You know, why don't you drink up

and-and then we'll leave?

I think I better go.

No.

You need to finish your drink.

Dean, please.

- Okay, I'm not gonna hurt you.
- Dean, what are you doing?

Just finish your drink.

Don't drink that!

Hey, I'm not doing nothing.

You got that right.

Sit down.

You can't just bust in here.

Sit down.

Daddy, I didn't know.

I didn't know.

- I know.
- I didn't...

- I really didn't, Dad.
- I'm sorry, too, baby.

- It's okay.
- Sarah!

Mommy.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I thought he was 16.

And I thought he
really liked me.

Oh, sweetheart,

we have some long talks ahead.

Where's Millie?

You won't believe this,

but she's with an angel.

Charlie, take your family home.

You're an angel.

That's why you glowed when you
talked to my mommy and daddy.

That's right.

So, do you know
how babies get born?

Oh, yes.

Miss Tess said I should
ask my mommy and daddy,

but they're too busy.

I don't think that they're
too busy, sweetheart.

I think that
they're just waiting

for the perfect time to answer.

Because every
time a baby is born,

it's the most beautiful
thing that can ever happen.

You mean like a
birthday present?

Exactly.

It's one of the
happiest presents

that God can give to anyone,

because every baby

is a precious miracle
sent from God.

Did you know that's
what you were?

- Me?
- Yes.

You and Sarah are God's
wonderful gifts to your parents,

and that's why they
want to be the ones

to tell you how it happened.

So, you're not
gonna tell me either?

I can tell you
that in your case,

it started with a
whole lot of love.

She's right, sweetie.

Sarah!

I knew the angels
would bring you home.

So, how does this work?

God has angels on the Internet?

God has angels everywhere,

even in kindergarten.

Please.

God wants you to know

that He loves all of
you very, very much.

And He knows that
these last few weeks,

you've been
att*cked by something

as old as the world itself.

Some call it the
devil, or Satan,

but whatever you call it,

it is evil, and it
roams the world

looking to destroy everything
that is beautiful and good.

Happy families,
loving relationships,

young innocents,
all of the things

that we hold sacred.

When good people

use the Internet
for communication,

the enemy uses it for lies.

And when good
people use photography

to recall beauty,

the enemy uses
p*rn to cheapen it.

And when a husband
and a wife share a life,

share a heart,

the enemy att*cks their
minds to divide them.

And that is why
evil is the enemy,

and that is why God has sent me.

It's too frightening, Monica.

In the blink of an eye, we
almost lost our daughter.

I don't want this
Internet in our life.

Kate, the Internet
itself is not evil.

It can be amazing.

Imagine all of that information

and those opportunities
to learn and share ideas.

There's never
been a time like this.

It's very exciting.

It doesn't have
to be frightening.

But it's all just
going too fast.

I mean, I feel like

I'm gonna get left
behind by the world

or by my own kids.

Yes, but Charlie,
time and progress

are in God's hands,
not technology's.

Yes, this is the beginning
of the 21st century,

but God is the same
yesterday, today,

and forever.

It is His will not that you

stumble into this new world,

but that you embrace
it without fear.

Just remember

that when you sit in
front of your computer,

there is good and evil in there

competing for your mind.

So, ask God to sit with you.

Ask God to protect you.

Learn how to protect
yourselves and your children.

This new world

has great potential for good.

But it needs good
people to accomplish it.

No peeking.

Okay, you can look now.

That's my store!

It's your own Web site.

I designed it at the cybercafé.

You know what?

Andrew's leaving there.

You've got your own business.

I've always wanted to
get out of the rat race.

What do you think?

Great.

Keep me out of the house, right?

Okay, okay, well, look.

If you click right here...

A family antique
and computer café.

I would go if the
coffee was good.

Or is that new and different?

Monica, Tess, Andrew,
it's time for dinner.

I've never had anything
named after me before.

See that pretty one over there?

- Mm-hmm.
- That's Tess.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

That definitely Tess.

How do you know that?

It's the one that looks grouchy.
