Jill: Tim. Mom just told me that she's bringing a date for Christmas.
Tim: Why doesn't she bring a whole box of dates? You can put them in your "Christmas cake."
Jill: No. Come here. His name is Parker. She's been seeing him for a couple of months.
Tim: Wow. That's, uh, kind of soon. I mean... How do you feel about that?
Jill: Well, I was in shock. I mean, I'm starting to give her this photo of her and Dad, then she starts talking about this other man. I didn't feel I could give it to her. Do you think I'm overreacting?
Tim: No. I think you're taking this very well. My mom waited 30 years to start dating and I still think it's too soon.
Jill: Well, it's obviously a little awkward for me, but it's not about me. So I'm gonna be supportive and when Parker gets here we'll be hospitable.
Tim: It'll be easier for me. He's not shacking up with my mom. [off Jill's look] Whatever I can do to help.
