downstairs and eats some pizza when he starts to see his dead wife again. He sits on the porch swing where "she is" and they begin to talk about how Andy always cleans on vacation and how he should spend some time with Ephram. Then he comes back to normal and sees Nina sitting outside gazzing over. He explains that he remembers some conversations he had with Julia. She understands and tells him about the Thaw they are having and the upcoming Fall Thaw Festival. Cuts to next day in town where they are hanging up the Fall Thaw Festival banner off Dr.Abbott's building. He complains that they might chip his expensive paint job. Dr. Brown greets Dr. Abbott with a bit of sarcasm added and Harold does the same back. Andy walks in his office to see it packed and greets everyone. He was so happy to tell Edna about his first house call thew other night. Then she questions why he is giving this thankless town free medicine, and he just answers that he wants to give something back for taking money from others sickness. Meanwhile at school Amy asks Ephram about how he likes his classes so far and how it was time for a nickname for him. She trys to tell him her nickname when the bell rings and takes off. Ephram then walks in the washroom when Bright and 2 of his friends come out of the stalls, at the same time. Bright says that he sees he's still tryin' to get cozy with Amy and he wants him to stop, and tells him that Amy is playing him to get Dr.Brown to fix Colin. At Delia's school, she's having a bit of trouble sitting at the back of the class and asks to move. Miss Violet says no because the boys sit and the front and the girls sit in the back. Delia questions why and Miss Violet begins to tease her a bit. Later that night Andy, Ephram, and Delia go out to supper at Gino Chang's. Amy and Harold walk in the restaurant when Andy points Amy out to Ephram when she is walking over. Ephram daydreams that Amy admittedly asks Andy to fix Colin so she can sleep with him, then Andy says I'd be delighted. Ephram snaps out of it when she reaches the table. Andy gets a phone call from Mrs. Dudley asking him to come over admittedly and he leaves, leaving Ephram and Delia to finish dinner alone. After dinner Ephram couldn't get a hold of a cab, so Dr. Abbott so generously offered to drive them home. Amy then asked Ephram if they wanted to hang out together at Thaw Fest and he said okay. But when they got home they couldn't get in the house so Ephram had to pry into a window. Meanwhile at the Dudley's all the kids are seemingly getting more sick so Dr. Brown offers to drive them to the nearest open pharmacy. At the Abbott home Harold tells Amy she can't go to Thaw Fest with Ephram and then they get into a fight and she goes upstairs. Delia has a nightmare when Ephram comes running into her room to see what's wrong. She asks him to stay until she falls asleep. Andy returns home late when Ephram yells at him for leaving them strainded, and without a ride. Then tells him that he's a crappy father and for being away while his daughter had a nightmare. The next day is Thaw Festival and Ephram goes off to see Amy where he finds her to be with Bright, and he has to tag along all day with them. Then Amy and Ephram are alone on the ferris wheel where she tells him her nickname "Grover" and tells him about how she met Colin. Then asks Ephram to ask his dad about fixing Colin. He says sure. Andy is over at a game when he sees his wife standing and walks to her. They begin to dance when he realizes everyone in town is looking at him. Delia and Ephram take him home. In the car, they laugh about what has just happend, then Delia gives Andy a note from school saying she's in big trouble, they laugh some more and she exits the car. That's when Ephram admits to seeing his mother sometimes, but in a different way. Wishing she was hear and stuff. Andy just tells him that they need to look out for Delia right now to make sure she is well taken care of. The next day at the office, it is quiet. Everyone is at Dr. Abbott's because of what happend. Edna tells his it will be okay, when Mrs. Dudley comes in to tell him she is grateful for all his help and that he will always be their family doctor. He then offers her a ride home. At school, Ephram and Amy are in the library. She finally gives Ephram his new nickname of Ham from Hamlet because he looks like him when Amy asks if he talks to his dad. He says he said no becasue he's trying to get out of the brain business and start a new life. Amy is hurt. At Delia's school Andy is meeting with Miss Violet about her disrupting the class. He gets mafd when he finds out why she was in trouble because it was unnesessary and that she had better done something wrong next time or she'll have one rowdy father on her hands. At dinner Ephram cooked a good meal and they sat around the table, and you see Julia sitting in the 4th seat. |
