Frankie: Axl will do whatever she says. It's scary.
Mike: Oh, you're exaggerating.
Frankie: Hello? Were you not there? Axl's eating broccoli now. And that's how it starts. She tells him to eat broccoli, so he does. Then she tells him what friends he can have, what college he should go to. He should go to a college near her. So he moves there and when he does, she breaks up with him again. Then she takes him back, they get married and have kids, and then she gets bored, which is her pattern. Then they get divorced and Axl's living in our basement, and she's moved with the kids to Florida because that's where her parents retired. They get to see the grandkids all the time and get to be called Nana and Pop-Pop. We have to be boring Grandma and Grandpa and we only see them once a year. And when we try to hug them, they're all stiff and awkward because we're strangers to our grandkids.
Mike: It all starts with broccoli?
Frankie: It all starts with the broccoli.
Mike: I think you worry too much.
Frankie: I have a right to be worried. Our grandkids live in Florida.
