There was loud knocking on the Winnebago door. Murdoc had put Emily down for a nap (baby's need a lot of sleep…..just a reminder), and he thought that he would catch a few winks himself, before she got up again. "Yo….Muds its dinner time, get up before I eat your share!" stated a very hungry Russel. Murdoc was sound asleep and when he heard Russel yell, it startled him and he rolled off the bed onto his sticky bedroom floor. With his face first in the floor "What the fuck" he growled into the sticky carpet. "I'm coming blimpie…. Let meh get Em, and I'll be down. "Russel gently kicked Murdoc's door and rushed to the elevator before his meal got cold. Without even bothering to get dressed, just his boxers and his necklace, he went to Em's room. Still sound asleep. He didn't want to wake her, so he gently picked her up, and placed her head on his bare shoulder, and brought her pink baby blanket with them down to the kitchen.

"It's about time you two, we're having spaghetti!" said an excited 2-D. "SHHHH….can't ya see the baby's sleepn'……bloody moron" whispered Murdoc. He laid her down in the baby pen; they set up in the lobby, and entered the kitchen where everyone was waiting, except for Russel, who was already half way down his meal.

"What's the matter lards, couldn't wait for ya leader, to start" said Murdoc in a sarcastic way. Russel in return just flipped him the bird. Murdoc got himself all ready, a mountain of spaghetti, and a nice piece of garlic bread. Just as he was about to dig in he noticed that everyone was staring at him. "What?" he asked in a grouchy manner. "Isn't there anything you would like to say Murdoc-san?" asked Noodle politely. "Listen, I told ya once, and I told ya a million times, The day Hell freezes over is when you guys get Murdoc Jacob Niccals to say grace at the dinner table, end of Fucking Story!" he growled, and began to devour his meal.

"Murdoc-san?" asked Noodle quietly. "What?" replied a Murdoc with stuffed cheeks. "We need to talk." She replied. "About what chavy?" he asked. "Come on speak up girl." He then stated loudly with bits o f spaghetti flying out of his stuffed mouth. "God Muds, didn't anyone tell you not to talk with your mouth full?….cracker ass." Russel mentioned. "It's about Emily" Noodle kind of hesitated. Murdoc just stared at her. "Noodle told us what happened today Murdoc." 2-D added. Right after he said that, 2-D immediately ducked under the table, because Murdoc had chucked his plate of spaghetti at him, of course he missed but, it smashed against the wall. "Yo, WTF Muds, that's the good china!" yelled Russel. "Oh, who gives a flying fuck, its not like we can't afford a new one!" Murdoc yelled back. "Yeah, that maybe true, but all the money in the world can't take you back in time to buy those dishes again, that dish you threw is one of a kind, no more like it in the world! Asshole." replied a furious Russel. "Of course!...leave it up to lards to know everything about the "food world"!" screamed Murdoc. "Hey…… I saw a movie once that a professor went back in time to kill Jack the ripper, why don't we just give him a call to see if we can borrow his time machine!" asked a dimwitted 2-D. Murdoc and Russel stopped bickering for a moment to sate at the Dullard. "What the fuck are ya talking about Stupot?! Didn't ya hear Russ just say that no one can go back in time?" said Murdoc. "I pray for you man" was a Russel said while shaking his head, and then he noticed Noodle had left the room. "Hey where did Nods go?"

They all walked out into the living room to find Noodle sitting on the couch soothing a frightened Emily. She then noticed them all, including Murdoc, staring. With tears streaming down her face, she got up walked over to Murdoc and held out Emily in front of him. "Prove it to me……prove it to me Murdoc-san that you truly love this little girl…..prove it if front of all of us!" she cried. Murdoc's face went beet red. He didn't know what to do. "Please….for her sake Murdoc-san!... she needs you! Emily fidgeted in her hands. He then just sat on the couch while everyone was staring at him. "What are you afraid of man…… we won't think any less of you then we already do" replied Russel in a kidding type of way. Noodle just shook her head at Russel for making a tasteless joke like that at a time like this. "Alright…I'm sorry…..Man, there is no reason to be embarrassed." Russel apologized. "It's okay Russ….. you don't understand, I have a reputation to keep up, if the media hears any part of this…" before Murdoc could finish, 2-D came up behind the couch and gave Murdoc a big hug, forgetting the dire consequences for later. "We'd love ya as a nice Muds, or the Muds we're used to just the same" 2-D replied. "Murdoc-san who cares what people think about you, that never crossed your mind before, they way you act now, I think people talk you anyway. "Yeah, I know isn't it great…? They all want this body." Murdoc pounded his chest. "I'm sure the six pack and everything!" Noodle replied sarcastically whist poking at his protruding beer belly hanging over his boxers. "Murdoc-san, you need to stop pretending not to love Emily.." Noodle was rudely interrupted. "I know….I know… after that argument earlier,…I didn't realize the damage that was done, and I made peace with the baby, in my own way. I just hope it's not too late." He said as he took the baby into his own arms. "Sometimes I think I'm not cracked up t be a father, sometimes I think she would be better living in an orphanage." "WHAT!" Noodle, Russel, and 2-D yelled. 2-D, then passed out with is lanky legs sticking up in the air.

hang on everyone, a tear jerker is on the way (well, you may not cry, but its still a sad concept)
