Jack Fenton is a good father. He's not perfect, like he's sure Vlad would be if he had any kids. He's not rich, like the Mansons, and he doesn't have a normal, stable jobs, like the Foleys. But he knows that his wacky job lets him take Danny and Jazz camping, and when they're lying on either side, he feels alright.

"What's that one?" he asks, and the laser shoots up into the night.

"Orion's belt!" They cry, and since Danny says it a second faster, he cheers.

Jazz tugs on her father's shirt and says, "I liked it better when he couldn't talk."

He laughs and kisses her head, and tells them al about the solar system, because science is the only thing he's ever been really good at. His children look up at him, eyes filled with adoration and awe, and he tugs them closer, holding onto the moment.

"Hey, Dad, can I play with the light saber?"

"Laser pointer," he corrects. "And try not to point it at your sister's eyes."
