Michael's home for a year, teaching for the CIA and enjoying life. Then his mom gets mono, and Michael and Fi find themselves with a two-year-old roommate, Charlie Westen. Michael and Fi may be teachers at work, but they're students of Charlie. Set after season 6. Michael never had to make a deal. The CIA loved them all. All is good. RATING IS REALLY BETWEEN T and M.

"I don't think of the past. The only thing that matters is the everlasting present." -W. Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) More than ten years have passed since Michael, Fiona, and Charlie began life anew on the Iveragh peninsula. But can the past ever truly be behind anyone? Sometimes past and present meet, not always easily. A sequel to the story, "Sea and Change".
