beth is running, actually running, YEAH. hopping on one foot, once twice, as she pulls on her sneakers with a mad giggle and a dash for her purse. " going out jerry, feed the kids, home late !! " the joy could be mistaken for childlike as she throws her dad the biggest grin, leaping into the passenger's seat. it's a perfect moment. ( I FEEL GOD IN THIS CHILI'S TN FRFR !! )
When his own daughter jumps in his spaceship, he ensures that she closes the door on her side, before starting up the vehicle. He promised her something simple. Nothing absurd, nothing world altering. Just them, a simple restaurant, and no oddities. No alien monsters, no outer space shenanigans, no dimensional breaches.
...Lest he worry about irritating his own daughter.
"Hey, sweetie. You ready? No wild or unexpected surprises this time, I promise."
