AT RISE: Due to ever-changing Covid conditions, it suddenly turns out that *right now* is the best time for Daddy and Gavin to leave for their hiking trip instead of next week. All packed and ready to go, Gavin comes into the master bedroom to find Mom cowering in bed, munching through a snack bag of Cool Ranch Doritos.

GAVIN: Mom! If you’re gonna stress-eat about this, at least have something good. Don’t eat Doritos. Have something good, like… Lays. Or… Funions or something!

MOM: Gee thanks honey that’s great advice. Now be careful on your trip and don’t die or anything!

GAVIN: OK Mom. [Hugs Mom.]
