day by day...
by day.

:25:04
Amen.
Amen.

:25:05
Oh, Greg, that was lovely.
:25:08
Thank you, Greg.
That was interesting too.

:25:18
Oh, that's a--
that's a lovely vase.
That's great.

:25:23
Let me guess, Jack.
Is that one of your
secret cameras too?

:25:26
- Boogah-woogah-woogah!

:25:30
Greg, that's an urn
which holds the remains
of Jack's mother.

:25:35
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.

:25:39
That's all right.
You didn't know, Greg.

:25:41
I'm--
That's our Gran-gran.

:25:44
We like to think of her
as watching over us as we eat.

:25:48
Love you, Ma.
Miss you.

:25:50
Miss you every day.
:25:52
Oh, honey, why don't you
read Greg your poem?

:25:55
Oh, no, he doesn't want
to hear that.

:25:57
What? No!
What-What-What poem?

:25:59

Honey, I'm fine.

:26:05
The doctor thought it would be
therapeutic if he...

:26:08
sort of expressed his emotions
in an artistic way.

:26:10
Honey, you wrote
the most beautiful poem
about your mother.

:26:14
Please, we really
wanna hear it.

:26:16
Poem, poem.
Please!

:26:18
Oh, all right.
It's a work in progress.

:26:22
I'm still not happy with it.
:26:25
As soon as it's ready,
:26:27
then I am going to glaze it
onto a plate...
Mm.

:26:31
and put it
next to the urn.
Nice.

:26:33
It's very special.
