A/N: I am working on writing the 10th season of Everybody Loves Raymond, this is the fourth episode. Please R&R!
It's been a week and a half since Debra's accident and she is now back at home with her family. Ray and Debra are sitting on the couch looking through vacation brochures while the kids are eating breakfast in the kitchen.
"What looks good?" Ray asks Debra.
"I don't know. Everybody looks good right now!" she replies. "What looks good to you?"
Ray hands her a brochure. She looks at it, looks at him, and then bursts out laughing.
"That's a good one Ray!" she says between gasps for breath.
"What?" Ray asks with a bewildered expression on his face.
"You're serious?" Debra asks, trying to stop laughing enough to talk.
"Yeah!" Ray replies. "Don't you think it would be fun?"
"Ray!" she exclaims. "I can't drive across the country in an RV!"
"Why not?" Ray asks. "The doctor said you were fine!"
"He said I could get back to my normal lifestyle," Debra corrects him. "As long as I didn't do anything too stressful."
"Oh come on!" Ray sighs. "You won't have to drive or anything! You can lie down on a couch the whole time and I'll do all the work!"
"Ray! I'll be locked in a trailer with you and all the kids for two weeks!" she tells him. "How is that not stressful?!"
"It's not a trailer," Ray explains to her. "It's a recreational vehicle."
Debra gives him a dirty look.
"Mom!" Ally yells out from the kitchen. "They're doing it again!"
"Doing what?" Debra asks as she looks into the kitchen.
"They're telling me everything about that movie they went to see!" Ally complains. "And it's the one I was going to go see with Molly tonight."
"Boys!" Debra hollers at them. "What did I just tell you yesterday?"
"What?" the boys ask innocently.
"Ray!" Debra whines as she looks over at him. "Would you do something about them? They won't listen to a word I say!"
"Hey you two!" he hollers at the twins. "Cut that out or I'm going to hang you from your toenails from the rafters in the attic and find some twin eating bats to put up there with you!"
The twins give Ray a look of disbelief.
"Just go get ready for school or you're going to be late for the bus." Debra tells them.
The twins get up from the table and run past Ray and Debra on their way upstairs.
"Mom, can you drive me to school now?" Ally asks as she gets up from the table and walks into the living room.
"Yeah, sure sweetie." Debra replies. "Go get your stuff."
"Thanks," she says as she smiles and goes to get her things from upstairs.
"Will you at least think about this RV thing?" Ray asks as Debra gets up off the couch.
"Ray," she sighs as she gets her keys off of the kitchen table and walks back into the living room. "Why does this trip have to be your favourite?"
"Because it's cool," Ray replies.
Debra gives him a confused look.
"Just make sure the twins get on the bus," Debra tells him. "Because if they don't, you have to drive them."
"I'm ready mom," Ally says as she comes back downstairs with her backpack.
"OK hun, go wait out in the car, I'll be right out," Debra tells her.
"Ok," Ally replies and leaves the room.
"Come on Deb!" Ray pleads with her. "Just think about it?"
Debra waits for a minute before answering him.
"Alright," she says as she walks toward the back door. "I'll think about it.
Debra walks out the back door as Ray picks up the RV brochure and smiles stupidly to himself.
