The kids are five years old in this story.
Long night: Beck gets tired out while getting the kids ready for bed.
Tuesday, evening Jade was working late and Beck was home with the kids giving them their baths.
Beck: (running after Tori) Get back here!
Tori: (looks back) Nooo!
Beck: (running) Tori!
Tori: (stops in front of a gate) No.
Beck: (runs up) Got ya. (takes Tori to the tub) Don't move. (walks out)
Robbie: (running around) Super Robbie!
Beck: (sighs) One, down four to go.
Trina: (running, stops) Who put this gate here?
Beck: (runs up) Me. (picks up Trina)
Trina: (trying to break from Beck's grip) No bath!
Beck: (sat Trina in the tub) Don't get out.
Robbie: I'm super Robbie! (jumping around)
Beck: (sneaks up) Time for super Robbie's bath. (picks up Robbie)
Robbie: No! No! (kicking) I don't want a bath!
Beck: (sat Robbie in the tub) Don't move. (walks out)
Robbie: (splashes the water) Daddy you're mean!
Andre: (playing with cars)
Beck: Andre time for a bath.
Andre: (looks up) Nooo! (runs away)
Beck: (running after Andre) Why do we have to have such a big house? (sighs)
Andre: (stops in front of a gate)
Beck: (runs up) Come on buddy, bath time. (picks up Andre)
Andre: No. It's play time.
Beck: (sat Andre in the tub) Please don't get out.
Cat: (hiding behind a plant)
Beck: (sees Cat) Thought you could hide. (picks up Cat)
Cat: (screams) Nooo!
Beck: Ouch, you got a good pair of lungs. (sat Cat in the tub)
A few minutes later:
In the girls' bathroom.
Trina: Hey Cat.
Cat: (looks over) Yeah?
Trina: (squirts water in Cat's face with a toy)
Cat: Hey! Stop!
Trina: (laughing) No. (squirts Cat again)
Cat: Stop! I don't like water in my face. (upset)
Tori: Stop Trina.
Trina: (laughing) No, this is fun. (squirts Tori)
In the boys bathroom:
Beck: Please hold still. (trying to rinse Andre off)
Andre: Look Robbie. (throws the small ball into a hoop)
Robbie: Let me try! (throws the ball)
Beck: You guys like your new bath toy?
Robbie: Yes!
Andre: It's fun. (throws the ball into the hoop)
Beck: You guys are great at throwing the ball in the hoop.
Andre: Daddy, when I get bigger can I play basketball?
Beck: (smiles) Of course.
Robbie: Me too daddy?
Beck: Sure.
A few minutes later in the girls' bathroom:
Beck: Cat, if you'd just sit still. (trying to wash Cat's hair)
Cat: (moving around) I'm trying to play.
Beck: (rinsing Cat's hair) Almost done.
Cat: (screams, starts crying)
Beck: (stops) What's wrong?
Cat: You got it in my eyes. (crying)
Beck: Sweet heart I'm so sorry.
Trina: Here. (squirts Cat's face)
Cat: (cry's harder) Oww!
Beck: Trina, put the toy down.
Trina: Sorry daddy.
After the kids baths.
Beck: Here put these on. (puts PJ's on Trina's bed)
Trina: No.
Beck: (sighs) Trina, daddy is tired. So either you put the pajamas on or you can go to bed without a story.
Trina: (stomps over to her bed) I don't like wearing the same thing as my sisters. (starts putting on her PJ's)
Tori: Daddy, where is mommy? (dressing into her PJs)
Beck: She's at work.
Tori: Why?
Beck: Because she's directing her play.
Tori: Why?
Beck: Because it's her job.
Tori: Why?
Beck: Because she loves it.
Tori: Why?
Beck: (chuckles) I don't know why.
Story time in the boys' room.
Andre: (jumping on his bed)
Robbie: (jumping with Andre) We're super heroes!
Beck: (sitting on the floor) Shh! Shh! Come sit.
All the kids: (sits in front of Beck)
Cat: Daddy, can you read this first? (hands Beck a book)
Andre: No, read my book first. (holds up his book)
Cat: My book!
Andre: No my book!
Beck: (tired) Okay, let's read Trina's book first. (mumbles) It's the shortest.
Trina: (sticks her tongue out) Here you go daddy. (hands Beck her book)
Beck: (starts reading)

Beck went to him and Jade's room and showered. After his shower he was laying down in bed watching TV within minutes he was asleep. An hour later Jade arrived home.
Jade: (walks in her and Beck's room) Beck, I'm home.
Beck: (snoring)
Jade: (giggles) Well at least I get time to myself. (goes to their bathroom)
Jade ran herself a nice hot bath with scented bubbles.
