I didn’t realize babies come with hats. You guys crack me up. You don’t have jobs, you can’t walk or speak the language, you don’t have a dollar in your pockets, but you’ve got yourself a hat so everything’s fine. I don’t want to alarm you or anything but… I’m Dad. And for you, son — for you this will be the last time I pass the buck, but I think it should be clear from the get go that it was Mom who named you Huckleberry. I guess she was feeling like life doesn’t present enough challenges to overcome on its own. And honey, you’ve got a name now too. Your mom and I named you after an incredibly brave… uh, an incredibly brave woman; really not all that much older than you. Your name is Molly. Huck and Molly. So, what do I do? Well, you’re going to need food and clothes and doctors and dentists, and there’s that. And, should you have any questions along the way… This isn’t going to mean anything to you, but Leo was right. Leo was right. This is some of Sorkin’s best work. Hands down.
