going to church with the Halverson's

tomorrow that is matthew ever wants to

see my face again were they angry with

you it to play honey no mom they were

nice they're always nice to nice people

that's why I go to church with them hold

on I think it's great you going to

church in the morning don't forget to

bring in the paper yeah that's all right

your mom will get it

go over there and apologize to the

healthy what do we have to apologize for

we've done nothing wrong we lied to them

and then we tried to lie our way out of

the lie our daughter thinks we have no

morals and I'm starting to believe she's

right come on we're not bad people we

raise good kids they stay out of trouble

Lauren goes to church cuz other people

take her I'm sorry but I'm not gonna let

somebody make me feel guilty just

because please tell me you see that too

where do you come from I remember

correctly Bethlehem maybe she's been

gone all night I'll get here do to get

to sign maybe if we close our eyes still

there sweetie why are you up I heard you

talking hey asked him listen for you she

sees it to my lab Lawrence boyfriend

house to the house is given to you know

you stole him I guess I mean taking

things that don't belong to you is wrong

let me took that class from the

restaurant it was freaked last night but

you made me hide it in my coat no we

were wrong to take the glass and you

can't keep him because he doesn't belong

to you yeah I love ya that's sweet honey

we'll buy you one okay good night baby

we are taking it back to the Halverson's

and explaining everything and we just

leave it on the porch ring the doorbell

and run magically appear but maybe we

should take it as a sign that we need to

set a better example for our kids and if

we leave it on the porch and run we're

not taking responsibility that's the

best part no harm no foul he'd

understand that he was a laid-back guy

you are sampled maybe you're right of

course I am come on let's go to bed holy

moly I was gonna say moly looks just

like the one we broke oh the beards a

little shorter Alex it's early in the

day I feel like we're doing the right

thing here after this we'll go over

there give him the statue face the music

I just hope it's not the banjo brothers

maybe we should start taking the kids to

church didn't we say we were always

going to do that well we tried a couple

of times when they were babies but then

we got cable and everything after that

is a beautifully sharp full-color blur

feel like they're searching for

something you know Lauren going to

church Tina loving Jesus I'm afraid

we're not giving them something to

believe in okay fine what do we believe

it well God and angels and not k*lling

people I don't know my parents never

took me to church if we're not sure what

we believe should we just go to church

and pretend I mean isn't that worse than

not going at all just feel like we need

some guidance right now here's your

double tall nonfat latte father Thank

You Daniel

I know she's not on duty it's like that

time we ran into dr. Holden at that

restaurant he wouldn't look at my rash

on a really nice place and your rash

wasn't excuse me I'm sorry to bother you

but my husband and I were wondering if

we could ask you a question my guess so

do you think it's wrong to go to church

if you're not really sure what you

believe in oh I don't know isn't that

what faith is all about believing in

something without a guarantee like the

cops I can't but you're saying we should

go to church well that's kind of a

personal decision but I don't think

there's anything wrong with spending a

little time each week thinking about

something larger than ourselves I really

thought about it that way maybe we'll

give it a try we see woody yeah you do

hey father Jack what I take my break now

I gotta go pick up mom Cheryl cover the

counter geez I just blew my whole break

talking to a couple of stoners about God

why are we doing this can we just leave

the central on the porch and run no

because from now on we are setting a

better example we are going to show you

how to do the right thing when you've

made a mistake there's a god he will

take you before the horses open that

door in stairs uh God he will take me

okay okay end up with your music oh why

hi we were wondering if we could talk to

in your wife for a second Kathy the

Millers are here coming you like to come

inside

oh yeah I hear the faucet she's washing

her hands probably like sit down no no

no we don't want to take up your time we

just drop by what you got on our hands

hello hello we just want to come over

and apologize for blowing off your play

and also we want to let you know that

our daughter stole your Jesus statue and

then we broke it but we got jennie-o one

and we hope you'll forgive us because we

want you to know where we're decent

moral people we decided that it's not

such a bad idea to take an hour a week

to think about something larger than

ourselves okay a quick question on that

tent is it always in an hour he knows

him there's something you want to say to

the hell person I'm sorry still here

thank you that's okay honey I just love

him so much she loves cheese we all love
