ACT I

In the Stewarts’ house one morning. Ellen and Marilyn are preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Ellen: [she takes the tea kettle off the stove.] Marilyn, you want coffee or tea? Marilyn: Coffee, please. Ellen: I am so excited! At this time tomorrow morning Grandpa will be sitting in the kitchen with us. Marilyn: When does he arrive? Ellen: At six o’clock this evening. Marilyn: By plane? Ellen: No, by train. Marilyn: Are we picking him up at the station? Ellen: Not Grandpa. He doesn’t want anybody picking him up. He likes to be independent. Marilyn: Huh. Ellen: Oh, let’s go upstairs and prepare Grandpa’s room. Marilyn: Great! Let’s do it!

[Ellen and Marilyn get up to leave. Richard and Robbie enter the kitchen.] Richard: Good morning, Mom. Robbie: Morning. Ellen: Well, hi, fellas. Richard: Hello. Marilyn: Hi, honey. Richard & Robbie: Morning, Marilyn. Marilyn: We’re going upstairs to set up Grandpa’s room. There’s coffee ready. [Ellen and Marilyn go upstairs. Richard and Robbie begin to make breakfast.] Robbie: I’m really excited about seeing grandpa. Richard: Me, too. [to Robbie] Milk, please. Robbie: He’s so funny. He always makes me laugh. I hope Grandpa’s going to like living

with us.

Richard: I think he will. It just takes time to feel comfortable in a new place. Robbie: Won’t he miss being in Florida? Richard: Well, he will. But I think he’ll like being here with the family. Robbie: Are you sure about that? It’s crazy here most of the time. Richard: But it’s fun. Robbie: That’s for sure. Richard: You know, maybe I’ll put together some photos of Grandpa as a “welcome” present. Robbie: That’s a neat idea. What can I do? [He thinks.] I’ve got it! I have a picture of Grandpa and Dad and me in my wallet. It’s from the Fathers and Son’s Breakfast at my junior high school graduation. [He takes out his wallet and shows the picture to Richard.] Richard: [He looks at the picture.] Oh, I remember this picture. Robbie: I’d really like to pick up Grandpa at the railroad station.


Richard: Railroad stations or airports-grandpa always tells us he’ll get here by himself. Robbie: He’s something!

Upstairs in the Stewarts’ home. Ellen and Marilyn are preparing Grandpa’s room. Marilyn: [She points to the trunk.] Is this all Grandpa’s stuff? Ellen: That’s it. But I’m sure he has a few bags with him on the train. Marilyn: What’s inside? Ellen: I don’t know. It’s locked. Philip: [He enters.] Hi. Ellen: Oh, hi, darling. Marilyn: Morning, Philip. Philip: I want to put some of my good hangers in Grandpa’s closet. You know I’m very excited about his arrival. Ellen: We are, too. Susan called early this morning. She’s unhappy because she’s had to go to Chicago on a business trip and can’t leave till tonight. She wants to be here for Grandpa. Philip: Well, Grandpa will be disappointed, too. He loves Susan. She always reminds him of Grandma. Well, How’s everything here? Marilyn: Fine. We were just wondering about this trunk. Ellen: It’s locked. Philip: Oh [He takes a key from his pocket.] I have the key. Grandpa sent it to me. [He tries to put the key into the lock of the trunk.]
