- Hey, little man. You go fiirst.
- Hello.

1:08:21
- Dad.
- Mm-hmm.
- Can I watch cartoons?

1:08:24
- What time is it?
- The little hand is on the eight.

1:08:27
No. No, the seven.
1:08:30
Sam. Will you just--
1:08:33
Just watch cartoons in an hour.
Go back to sleep for a while.

1:08:36
Mm, okay.
1:08:41
Is Ben my daddy now?
1:08:46
What?
1:08:50
- Okay, well, let's get
just one thing straight.
- Please, Robert.

1:08:53
- I can't believe you let this happen.
I mean, what were you thinking?
- Calm down, Robert.

1:08:55
Sam sees a stranger in his bedroom
in the morning.

1:08:57
- You probably traumatized him.
- Ben is hardly a strange man.

1:08:59
- I'm sorry. I thought I was gonna
be gone by the time he woke up.
- Sam adores him.

1:09:00
Sam is confused by him,
and you're not helping matters.

1:09:02
What exactly do you think
is going on between us?

1:09:05
I don't care
what's going on between you.
I just don't want it to go on here.

1:09:08
We're getting married.
1:09:11
- What?
- We've been trying to fiigure out
a way to tell you.

1:09:16
Well, let me give you
one little tiny hint.

1:09:18
Letting Sam discoveryou in bed with him
is not what I'd call a subtle approach.

1:09:21
We didn't exactly plan it
this way, okay? Now you know.
So let's talk about it.

1:09:25
Talk about it? I've only had
fiive seconds to think about it.

1:09:27
You're the ones that have had
the luxury of mulling this over.
What do you think about it?

1:09:30
- I don't know.
- Well, that's a fiine place to start.

1:09:32
Look, Robert, I just want us
all to get along. I'm not here
to usurp your position.

1:09:37
- I thinkyou're a great dad.
- That's mighty big ofyou, Ben.

1:09:39
Stop it, Robert! The last thing
that we want to do is hurt you.

1:09:42
- "We, we, we." What's all
this "we" all ofa sudden?
- Shh!

1:09:44
The fact ofthe matter is,
we need to work this out together.

1:09:46
Well, let me tell you one thing
straight away. Sam has one father.

1:09:49
There's only one daddy in this family,
and that is me! I'm the daddy!

1:09:52
- Absolutely!
- Absolutely!
- You're the mummy...

1:09:54
and Ben--
1:09:57
Ben isjust Ben.
1:09:59
Now, when it comes to any decisions
involving Sam, I get a say
and Abbie gets a say.
