"Mom!" Tuck called whiled knocking on Miranda's office door.
"Come in," Miranda said.
Tuck walked in and saw his mother working on something.
"I'm going to make it quick. My school is having a senior lock-in, and I signed you up to be a chaperone."
"Why would you do that? You know that I'm busy."
"You're always busy."
"I know you're mad, but I have to work to keep the lights on."
"But mom, I won't graduate if you don't do it."
"What do you mean you won't graduate?"
"You haven't completed your mandatory family volunteer hours, which is a requirement for me to graduate."
"Your dad hasn't done any hours?"
"Nope," Tuck said, popping the P.
"Crap," Miranda said, putting her hand over her head.
"Okay, I'll do it." She told him.
Tuck came around his mother's desk and hugged her.


*BEN'S HOUSE*

Joey walks into the house with a basketball.
"Dad, I'm back from the basketball court."
"Son, your counselour just called. Looks like I'm chaperoning your lock-in." Ben met his son at the door.
"Whyyy?!"
"They wouldn't let you graduate if I didn't."
"I thought you already did all of your hours."
"I was going to do them, but I had the LONGEST surgery the night before. So I slept in."
"Daddd!!!"
"I'm sorry, bud. That's why I'm going to make it up to you. I already took the day off."
"Okay. But please, don't embarrass me." Joey went up the stairs.
"I won't!" Ben yelled.
