SUMMARY: Yet again, Ray curses his father.

"Daddy, come on," Ally insisted, pulling on Ray's hand. "I wanna go to the Happy Zone."

Ray bit back a sigh. Why hadn't his stupid father gotten his license renewed? Why was this now his job?

"Daddy has to write his column," he said gently, not anticipating the widening eyes and the sudden, suspicious, presence of tears. "Aw, come on, Ally. Don't start that."

"But I wanna go!," she screeched, causing everyone congregated in the living room watching the game to turn and stare at them. "We always go. It's not fair!"

"Come on, Ray," his lovely wife -- of course it was his lovely wife -- said. "It's just a few hours."

Ray sighed. Heavily. He knew when he was defeated.

"Just a few hours?," he asked. "Just a few hours of painful fun zone?"
