They'll get off the plane.

There she is.

Everything will be fine.

You know, you'll be in San Francisco International Airport.

So I agreed to that.

And they went inside, and this was in the days before there were security lines, and you could just go up to the gate and purchase a ticket.

So Gil took Aaron, instead of going to the gate that was the flight up to San Francisco, he took her to a gate that was going to New York.

And she made kind of a stink.

You know, she's like, well, no, we're not going to New York.

We're going home to mommy.

And so he wound up buying a ticket for her flight, her original flight up to San Francisco.

So he got on the plane with her.

And she told me later that he was mad at her and wouldn't talk to her on the plane.

I had Amy in my arms, and she wants to get down, and she's complaining.

And he stuck his arms out.

And just as a reflex, I gave Amy to him to hold.

So...

We start walking towards baggage claim and I see him.

He's ahead of me by, you know, a fair amount of distance, but I can see him.

And he's got Amy up on his shoulder and her little face is just kind of bouncing over his shoulder looking back at me.
