| Marilyn | By plane? |
| Ellen | No, by train. |
| Marilyn | Are we picking him up at the station? |

| Robbie | Are you sure about that? It's crazy here most of the time. |
| Richard | But it's fun. |
| Robbie | That's for sure. |
| Richard | You know, maybe I'll put together some photos of Grandpa as a "welcome" present. |
| Robbie | That's a neat idea. What can I do ? I've got it! I have a picture of Grandpa and Dad and me in my wallet. It's from the Father's and Son's Breakfast at my junior high school graduation. |
| Richard | Oh, I remember this picture. |
| Robbie | I'd really like to pick up Grandpa at the railroad station. |
| Richard | Railroad stations or airports-Grandpa always tells us he'll get here by himself. |
| Robbie | He's something! |
| Marilyn | Is this all Grandpa's stuff? |
| Ellen | That's it. But I'm sure he has a few bags with him on the train. |
| Marilyn | What's inside? |
| Ellen | I don't know. It's locked. |
| Philip | Hi. |

| Marilyn | Morning, Philip. |
| Philip | I want to put some of my good hangers in Grandpa's closet. You know I'm very excited about his arrival. |
| Ellen | We are, too.Susan called early this morning. She's unhappy and can't leave till tonight. She wants to be here for Grandpa. |
| Philip | Well, Grandpa will be disappointed, too. He loves Susan.She always reminds him of Grandma. Well,how's everything here? |
