Wally ran up his proch as his friends followed him and he opened the screen door to find Joey watching TV.

Wally: Where's mom and dad?

Joey(Pointing to the kitchen) And boy are you in for it.

Wally walked into the kitchen as his mom got off the telephone and stared at him.

Wally: Morning mom.

Mrs. Beatles: Is that all you have to say after not coming home?

Wally: I got beat up last night, Kuki had me spend the night at her house.

Kuki(Waving) That be me.

Mrs. Beatles: And Kuki doesn't own a phone?

Wally: I woke up there this morning, not knowing how I got there.

Mrs. Beatles: Whatever Wally, Joey would never do something like that.

Wally(Chewing his anger down) I'm- not- Joey.

Mrs. Beatles: That's for damn sure.

Kuki: Don't you love Wally as much as Joey?

Mrs. Beatles(Laughing) Yea right, love him as much as Joey, why would I do that?

Kuki(Shocked) Because he's your son, he's not a dog you can put out in the cold when your bored with him.

Mrs. Beatles: Why not he does the same to his brother.

Wally(Walking off) Forget this I just came to change then I'm going out with my friends.

Mrs. Beatles: Hold it right there young man.

Wally(Crying) What do you want to yell at me again?, because if you are then let me save you the trouble and just leave because I'm tired.

Mrs. Beatles: Stand right there Wally, I'm not finished with you yet.

Wally stalked off as his mother bounded after him and he slammed his bedroom door in her face.

Wally(Throwing his clothes off) Stupid mom loves Joey more than me, Who do you love huh mom? who do you fucking love?

Wally's clothes basket connected with Wally's foot as it sailed across the room and his clothes showered his floor.

Kuki: Do you see what your doing to him now?, he's lost in this world and he doesn't even have parents to help him through it.

Wally threw a clean T shirt, shorts, and a pull over shirt with a dragon on it over himself and moved his basket away from the door.

Wally(Stalking off) I'll be back late not that you care or anything like that.

Mrs. Beatles: Take your brother with you.

Wally(Walking through the living room) Mom wants me to take you with my friends and I for the day.

Joey(Jumping from the chair) Goody I hate lounging around this house all day.

Wally: We're going to get some burgers and then we're going to see Transformers.

Joey(Hugging him) Thanks for taking me with you Wally.

Wally: Don't mention it kid, I don't want you here listening to mom and dad fight.

Joey: So what's after Transformers?

Wally: We come back here for dinner.

Mrs. Beatles: We're going to talk about your night last night when you get home Wallabee.

Wally: That's fine with me.

Mrs. Beatles: Have fun Joey, and be sure to thank your brother for being so grateful.

Joey(Smiling at Wally) Thank you Wally.

Wally: No prob squirt, let's just get a move on.

Kuki led the way out of the house as Joey was lifted onto Wally's shoulders and Kuki smiled.

Kuki: You love him don't you Wally?

Wally: How could I not, I feel bad for the tike because he has to listen to my parents fight left and right.

Joey(Looking down at Wally) They used the D word again Wally, do you really think they'll go through with it?

Wally: They might, but I think the main question is if they don't go through with it, will we want to be around them?

Kuki: The D word?

Wally: Divorce they've been throwing that word around forever.

Kuki: Well if their fighting somebody has to leave.

Wally: Dad threatened to take Joey and me with him, my mom says we're all his, he just needs to find a job.

Nigel: So that gives you something to look forward to.

Joey: Daddy hasn't worked a day in his life.

Wally: Well said kiddo.

Rachel: Why don't you find your dad a job?

Wally: You know I never thought of that, then we won't have to listen to mom yell anymore.

Joey: We can go to the restaraunt we're eating at and see if they need a cook.

Rachel: I thought you hated Joey Wally.

Wally: I thought I did too, but come to think of it, it's hard to hate someone that's been through the same things as you.

Rachel: Wally my boy, I think your growing up on us.

Wally: You too, you aren't acting like a grump today.

Kuki: Yea I mean what is that about?

Rachel: It's a new batch of agents, and I feel that if I don't assert myself I'll be walked all over.

Kuki: I thought it was becuase Fanny was your bestest friend.

Rachel: I admit I picked up a couple of her qualities, but it was just me being scared.
Kuki(Hugging her) Don't be scared, we're really a fun bunch of kids.

Wally: Yea once you get to know us.

Rachel: The day I got decomissoned as supreme leader to take Nigel's job, I have to admit I had no idea how he was going to take it.

Wally: He reacted well once he came to.

Rachel: Then he thought it was a joke until he got his papers saying that he was going through KND training for supreme leader.

The gang stopped in the parking lot of a restaraunt called Greasy Jacks.

Wally: Burgers anyone?

Rachel(Running to the door) You don't have to ask me twice.
Nigel(Walkng up to her) Me either.

Kuki: I think we should thank Wally for his great idea.

Everyone: Thanks Wally.

Kuki: You could start spending the night with me if home's broken Wally.

Wally: Thanks for the invite but the treehouse works just as good.

Kuki: Then I'll join you when you sleep there.

Wally(Moving closer to her) I'd like that.

Kuki(Eskimo kissing him) And once your dad's free from your mom's yelling you'll have a new home to make Joey's and your own.

Joey: Can I sleep in the treehouse too?

Wally: I don't see why not, you can let the crickets and owls put you to sleep like I do.

Joey: That sounds peaceful enough.

Kuki: It is, see my parents take me and Mushi on this family camping trip at the end of the Summer, and I'm usually used to sleeping in my own bed.

Joey: But the owl and the crickets make it better for you?

Kuki: Yep them and the bullfrogs.

Joey: Can we come on the camping trip too?

Wally: Joey we really shouldn't impose.

Kuki(Shaking her head) You won't be, my mom and dad always tell me to bring a boy home, wait until they hear I'm bringing one camping.

Wally: I guess it could be cool, roasting hot dogs and making smores.

Joey: Singing camp songs around the campfire.

Wally: Sleeping in tents.

Joey: Fishing for our dinner.

Kuki: Actually we really don't eat the fish, my dad just enjoys the expirience of it all.

Joey: I've never been fishing.

Kuki: My dad would have a ball with you, he forced Mushi and I to learn fishing at a very early age.

Joey: My daddy always goes with Wally, see that's Wally and daddy time, I get my daddy time when we go get ice cream.

Wally: Tell you what, the next fishing trip we have, I'm inviting you to come along.

Joey(Bouncing up and down: Really Wally do you mean it?

Wally: I've never meant anything more in my life kid.

Wally's father walked up as he wore a grin and Wally and Joey knew there was good news coming.

Wally's father: I signed the divorce papers this morning, I'm taking the house seeing I put more money into it.

Wally and Joey ran into their fathers arms crying as he held them tight.

Wally: Dad when is our next fishing trip?

Wally's dad: I was thinking we could go tomorrow, I hear a lot of fish are biting down by the lake.

Wally: I propose a new family tradition, we take Joey with us and we go get ice cream after.

Wally's dad(Surprised) Did my son just invite his brother on an older son only fishing trip?

Wally: Yea I guess I did?

Wally's dad(Looking down at Joey) What do you say kid?

Joey(Raising his arms) Yayyyyyyyy let's go now.

Wally's dad: Well we can't go now, word on the street is Wally's taking you to the movies.

Joey: yea and he's taking me camping with Kuki's family at the end of the Summer.

Wally's dad: Kuki who?

Kuki raised her hand and stood up as Mr. Beatles looked her up and down and knew this must be Wally's newest catch.

Wally's dad: Don't let this one get away Wally, she's beautiful from head to toe.

Kuki(Blushing) Thank you Mr. Beatles.

Wally's Dad(Sitting down) Mind if I join you for lunch?

Wally: Where are you working dad?

Wally's dad: Here where you now sit, there in desperate need for a short order cook.

Kuki: Cool so this could be our hang out spot.

Wally's dad: Actually it'd be great for business, because I'm also the manager here.

Joey: Can I hang here too?

Wally's dad: Sure the more the merrier.
