[Energetic music plays]
A boy with dark brown eyes and short, dark brown hair with sideburns sits at a table. He wears a red long-sleeved shirt.
The brown-eyed boy says, WHAT? I CAN PAY ALL BY MYSELF?
The same boy kneels on a chair with two bags on the table in front of him. A woman with long dark brown hair in a ponytail beneath a ball cap stands beside the table.
The brown-eyed boy says, I CAN'T CARRY ALL OF IT.
The woman with the ponytail says, AH, YOU CAN!
Outside, the brown-eyed boy drops a bag on the sidewalk.
[Thumping]
In a kitchen, a woman with long blond hair sits at the head of a table. A girl with long, curly brown hair wears a blue-green shirt. Beside the girl, a boy with short, curly brown hair wears a bright blue shirt with a polar bear on the front.
The blonde-haired woman asks, DO YOU THINK YOU'RE ABLE TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE FOR ME?
The curly-haired boy says, BY OURSELF?
In a doorway, the blonde-haired woman says, OH! I'M, LIKE, READY TO CRY.
Outside, the two curly-haired children carry bags.
The curly-haired boy asks, COULD WE JUST TAKE A BREAK?
The curly-haired girl says, NO, WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT.
[Playful music plays]
A montage shows young children pushing shopping carts. On a sidewalk, Parker carries the pants.
The narrator says, HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT LITTLE KIDS CAN DO ON THEIR OWN?
[Parker giggling]
A man with short black hair waves to a child wearing bright green gloves and a purple coat.
The child shouts, BYE-BYE!

An adult rakes orange leaves into a pile by a curb. Inside a house, the brown-eyed boy kneels before a small chalkboard and writes letters.
[Leaves rustling, chalk tapping, upbeat music plays]
The brown-eyed boy sings, A, B, C, D...
Colin narrates, SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE GROWING UP TAKES FOREVER.
The brown-eyed boy sings, H, I, J...
Colin narrates, AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT THIS KINDERGARTNER BELIEVES. MEET FOUR-YEAR-OLD ARYAN.
Aryan poses in a backyard. Text reads, “Age 4.”
In an interview, Aryan’s parents, Deepa and Abjijeet, sit in a kitchen. His mom, Deepa, has long, dark brown hair and wears a dark pink turtleneck sweater. His dad, Abhijeet, has short dark brown hair and an orange shirt.
Abhijeet says, ARYAN WANTS TO DO EACH AND EVERY THING THAT HIS PARENTS ARE DOING IN FRONT OF HIM. HE WANTS TO ORDER HIS OWN FOOD AT THE RESTAURANT. HE JUST WANTS TO BE LIKE AN ADULT.
In a kitchen, Aryan mops a shiny tile floor.
[Rustling]
In the interview, Deepa says, YEAH, HE SAYS, LIKE, "IF YOU CAN DO IT, WHY CAN'T I?"
At the table, Aryan holds a piece of wood.
Aryan asks, ISN'T THIS SEMICIRCLE?
Aryan’s older brother takes the piece of wood. He has short dark brown hair and wears a dark blue shirt.
Aryan’s older brother says, YEAH! EVEN WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, I WOULDN'T KNOW THIS IS A SEMICIRCLE. YOU CAN BE A SMART BROTHER.
Aryan’s older brother pats him on the head.
Colin narrates, THIS KID IS JUST ITCHING TO DO ALL THE COOL, GROWN-UP THINGS HIS PARENTS AND TEENAGE BROTHER GET TO DO.
At a keyboard beside a large window, Aryan sits between his parents. Deepa plays the keyboard.
[Keyboard notes playing, Aryan chatters]
Deepa says, OKAY?
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND MOM AND DAD AGREE, ARYAN IS READY FOR THE RESPONSIBILITIES THAT THEY HAD AS KIDS.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, BACK IN INDIA WHERE WE GREW UP, WE WERE TAUGHT TO BE INDEPENDENT. IN A FAMILY, YOU NEED TO BE INDEPENDENT, YOU NEED TO HELP EACH OTHER, YOU NEED TO HAVE EACH OTHER'S BACK.
Colin narrates, INDEPENDENCE IS A HUGE DEAL TO THIS FAMILY, SO MOM AND DAD ARE LOOKING FOR WAYS OF GIVING ARYAN WHAT HE CRAVES, AND AN ERRAND MIGHT JUST BE THE PERFECT FIRST STEP.
In the interview, Deepa says, ARYAN'S FAVOURITE PHRASE IS "ALL BY MYSELF."
At the keyboard, Deepa says, IT'S OKAY, I'M FINE.
Aryan says, LET ME DO IT ALL BY MYSELF.
Deepa says, YOU CAN DO IT BY YOURSELF.
[Aryan plays keyboard]
In the interview, Deepa says, SO LET'S SEE WHAT-- WHAT HE HAS IN STORE FOR US.
[Deepa and Abhijeet chuckling]
A flock of birds takes off from a barren treetop. At Aryan’s house, Deepa walks to her silver car. Inside the house, Abhijeet sits on a couch with his laptop computer balanced on his knee.
[Birds chirping, gentle music plays]
The crew hides cameras around the house. One crewmember snaps a clapperboard.
[Tapping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BUSY DAY AT ARYAN'S HOUSE, BECAUSE MOM HAS TO HEAD OUT TO HER OFFICE, AND DAD HAS A TON OF WORK TO DO. SO AFTER OUR CREW SECRETLY SETS UP SOME HIDDEN CAMERAS, DAD CALLS ARYAN TO THE KITCHEN TO ASK FOR HIS HELP.
[Upbeat music plays]
Abhijeet asks, CAN YOU SIT HERE FOR A BIT AND TALK TO ME? BECAUSE PAPA HAS A LOT OF WORK TO DO.
Aryan says, BUT I WANNA—
Abhijeet asks, BUT I NEED YOUR HELP. CAN YOU DO THAT FOR ME TODAY? BECAUSE THERE'S NO ONE IN THE HOUSE. CAN YOU HELP ME?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Abhijeet says, OKAY. YOU KNOW JIM UNCLE?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Abhijeet says, HE HAS BROKEN HIS ARM. YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, JIM IS THEIR NEIGHBOUR. THEY CALL HIM "JIM UNCLE" AS A CULTURAL SIGN OF RESPECT.
Abhijeet says, SO HE CANNOT RAKE THE LEAVES.
Abhijeet asks, CAN YOU HELP HIM DO THAT TODAY?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, I DON'T KNOW IF ARYAN'S LISTENING OR DREAMING OF DOING
EXCITING GROWN-UP THINGS, LIKE FILING HIS TAXES, OR GROWING A COOL MOUSTACHE!
Abhijeet asks, AFTER RAKING LEAVES, CAN YOU GET SOME LUNCH FOR US? WE'LL ORDER SOMETHING FROM THE-- THE MEXICAN FOOD. HOW ABOUT THE BURRITOS AND SOME QUESADILLAS? YOU CAN PAY ALL BY YOURSELF.
Aryan says, WHAT?
Colin narrates in a whisper, YES.
Aryan says, I CAN PAY ALL BY MYSELF?
Colin narrates, LOOKS LIKE DAD JUST SAID THE MAGIC WORDS.
Abhijeet says, YOU LOVE THAT IDEA?
Aryan says, YEAH, I THINK SO.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from Aryan’s house to Jim Uncle’s front yard next door. Aryan walks around a corner, up a street, and crosses an intersection to a “Mexican Food” restaurant. A sign beside the intersection reads, “Busy intersection.” Graphics of bottles, burritos, and a quesadilla pop up over the restaurant.
[Leaves rustling, boinging, popping]
Colin narrates, FOR ARYAN'S FIRST ERRAND, HE'LL HEAD NEXT DOOR TO RAKE LEAVES FOR HIS INJURED NEIGHBOUR, JIM UNCLE.
ONCE HE'S DONE, HE'LL TAKE A SHORT STROLL DOWN THE STREET AND AROUND THE BLOCK UNTIL HE REACHES A BUSY INTERSECTION. CROSSING THAT WILL TAKE HIM TO THE FAMILY'S FAVOURITE MEXICAN RESTAURANT, WHERE HE'LL GET FOUR DRINKS FOR THE FAMILY, THREE BURRITOS, AND A CHICKEN QUESADILLA FOR HIMSELF. AND IT'LL ALL BE DONE ALL BY HIMSELF.
[Cheering]
On a sidewalk, Aryan drags a small rake behind him. He struggles as an empty leaf bag slides down from under his arm.
[Playful music plays]
Colin narrates, LET THE FIRST PART OF THE ERRAND BEGIN. GOT A NICE, WARM HAT. GOT A KID-SIZED RAKE. GOT EXTREMELY SLIPPERY LEAF BAGS. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? HE'S GOT THIS.
Aryan drops the bag and picks it up.
In the house, Abhijeet looks through a window.
Abhijeet says, I'M NOT VERY SCARED OR-- ABOUT THIS PART. BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW HE WILL DO WITH THE RESTAURANT THING, OF COURSE. I'M NOT SURE IF HE MIGHT REMEMBER THE FOOD THAT HE NEEDS TO ORDER, BRING IT BACK. HE'S NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE.
Aryan knocks on a door.
[Knocking]
Aryan says, JIM UNCLE?
Jim says, HOW ARE YOU?
Jim has short grey hair, wears a grey shirt, eyeglasses, and dark blue denim jeans, and has his left arm in a sling.
Aryan says, I THINK I HAVE TO RAKE THE LEAVES FOR YOU.
Aryan pulls leaves onto a driveway. He holds the rake with his left hand.
[Rake scraping, upbeat music plays]
Jim says, HOW ABOUT YOU PUT THE LEAVES IN, I'LL HOLD THE BAG?
Aryan says, OKAY.
Jim holds the leaf bag open, and Aryan puts the leaves in.
Colin narrates, LOOK AT ARYAN DOING THIS GROWN-UP TASK. WHAT A GREAT NEIGHBOUR.
Jim says, THERE YOU GO.
Subtitle: “I think I need to go one more time on the sidewalk.”
Aryan walks down Jim’s driveway and walks away on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, UH, WHERE'S HE GOING?
Jim asks, WHERE YOU GOING, BUDDY?
Aryan turns and waves at Jim. He keeps walking.
[Jim laughing]
Colin narrates, WELL, I GUESS HE'S DONE. YOU GO, ARYAN! THE JOB IS DONE WHEN YOU SAY IT'S DONE.
Jim says, HEY, BUDDY, COME ON BACK!
Colin narrates, SORRY, JIM UNCLE. GIVEN THE CHOICE BETWEEN RAKING LEAVES OR GOING TO PAY FOR LUNCH, ARYAN WILL ALWAYS CHOOSE PAYING FOR LUNCH.
Aryan turns the corner and walks up the sidewalk.
[Aryan humming, upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “It’s not far. I think I got this.”
A crossing guard helps Aryan cross the busy intersection.
Subtitle: “Walking sign means go.”
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, HE'S NEVER GONE TO THE MEXICAN RESTAURANT WITHOUT MOM AND DAD BEFORE. THIS IS A HUGE DEAL FOR ARYAN.
Aryan approaches the restaurant.
Colin narrates, NOW THE ONLY THING STANDING BETWEEN ARYAN AND DELICIOUSNESS...
Aryan pulls on the door handle and lets go.
[Banging]
Colin narrates IS THAT DOOR. THAT HEAVY, HEAVY DOOR.
Aryan says, I NEED TO COME IN.
The woman with the ponytail, who works at the restaurant, opens the door.
The restaurant worker says, YEAH? OKAY.
Aryan says, I WANT A QUESADILLA. AND FOUR-- FOUR DRINKS, AND-- AND FRIES.
The restaurant worker says, AND WHAT DID YOU SAY?
Aryan says, UM, QUESADILLA, FRIES...
The restaurant worker says, FRIES? UH-HUH.
Aryan says, AND...THAT'S ALL I WANT.
Colin narrates, SO HE FORGOT THE BURRITOS, BUT HE ADDED SOME FRIES. CLOSE ENOUGH.
[Food sizzling]
The restaurant worker asks, ANY GUACAMOLE? A BURRITO?
Aryan says, YEAH, BURRITOS. MY DAD SAID TWO.
Colin narrates, NICE! HE REMEMBERED THE BURRITOS.
The restaurant worker says, THE BURRITOS. HE LIKES RICE?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, YEAH? EVERYTHING I GIVE IT TO YOU, YOU BRING HOME?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker asks, AND HOW WILL YOU CARRY THAT? BECAUSE IT'S HEAVY, HUH?
Aryan says, BUT MY DAD SAID I CAN DO IT.
[Playful music plays]
The restaurant worker says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, OKAY. SO NOW HE'S GETTING TWO BURRITOS, FRIES, FOUR DRINKS, A QUESADILLA, AND RICE. IT'S NOT EXACTLY DAD'S ORDER, BUT IT'S ENOUGH TO FEED FOUR PEOPLE.
The restaurant worker makes the food.
[Upbeat music plays]
The restaurant worker says, ALL RIGHT, FOOD IS READY!
Subtitle: “Tell me how much dollars you want?”
Colin narrates, THIS IS YOUR BIG MOMENT, ARYAN.
The restaurant worker says, THIS ONE IS THE BILL. 68.
Aryan says, I THINK I GOT HOW MANY YOU WANT.
Aryan gives the restaurant worker all of his money.
The restaurant worker says, OKAY. I'M GIVING IT TO YOU SOME CHANGE.
Colin narrates, HE DID IT! HE PAID ALL BY HIMSELF! ARYAN, I HOPE THAT WAS EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS DREAMED OF.
The restaurant worker says, LOOK, I GOT ALL THE FOOD FOR YOU.
Aryan says, WOW! I THINK I CAN CARRY IT.
Aryan picks up a bag. A second restaurant worker puts two more bags on the table in front of Ayran.
Colin narrates, NOT SO FAST, ARYAN. THERE'S MORE.
Aryan says, I CAN'T CARRY ALL OF IT.
The restaurant worker says, AH, YOU CAN. COME ON.
Aryan says, NOT CHILDREN. ONLY GROWN-UPS CAN DO THAT. AND I'M NOT A GROWN-UP YET. I HAVE TO BE OLDER.
The restaurant worker asks, DO YOU WANNA GO HOME, COMING BACK AND COMING BACK? NO.
Colin narrates, YEAH, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A HORRIBLE IDEA.
Aryan says, I'LL GO, COME BACK, GO, COME BACK.
Colin narrates, WHAT DO I KNOW? THREE TRIPS IT IS.
Aryan leaves the restaurant and carries the bag to the intersection.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan says, AGAIN I NEED TO GO.
The crossing guard says, LET'S GO.
Aryan says, I WILL COME BACK AGAIN.
Subtitle: “I’ll leave my two foods at there. I always can hold my food all by myself and I don’t drop it.”
Abhijeet stands on the sidewalk in front of the house.
Abhijeet says, GOOD JOB!
[Abhijeet clapping, upbeat music plays]
Aryan says, DAD...
Subtitle: “I need to go one more time again, and again.”
Abhijeet asks, WHAT DID YOU GET, BY THE WAY? WHAT IS IT?
Aryan says, THERE'S TWO MORE TO GO. TWO MORE.
Abhijeet says, OKAY. DID YOU PAY MONEY? ARYAN?
Colin narrates, NO TIME FOR CHIT-CHAT, DAD. HE'S GOT TO GET THAT FOOD
HOME BEFORE IT GETS COLD.
Aryan runs up the street.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan says, I NEED TO GO BACK, AND THEN I GO BACK ONE MORE TIME.
Abhijeet watches and laughs. Aryan turns the corner and takes off his hat.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, THE BEST THING ABOUT BEING ON YOUR OWN IS YOU CAN JUST TAKE OFF YOUR ITCHY HAT, AND THERE'S NO ONE TO TELL YOU TO PUT IT BACK ON.
The crossing guard says, YOU'RE BACK AGAIN.
Aryan says, YEAH.
Aryan crosses with the crossing guard. He walks to the restaurant and pulls on the door.
Colin narrates, OH, GREAT. IT'S THAT ANNOYINGLY HEAVY DOOR AGAIN.
[Door banging]
The restaurant worker opens the door.
The restaurant worker says, THERE YOU GO. WOW. LOOK. YOU COMING BACK. YOU FAST, MAN. COME-- WAIT.
Aryan drops his hat on the ground and enters the restaurant. The restaurant worker picks it up and puts it on his head.
Colin narrates, OH! THE HAT! THANKS, RESTAURANT LADY.
Aryan takes one of the bags.
The restaurant worker says, WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?
Aryan says, I THINK I'LL CARRY IT AFTER I GO BACK.
Aryan slings the bag over his shoulder, pushes the door open, and leaves the restaurant.
Colin narrates, TO BE HONEST, I THINK ARYAN JUST WANTS THIS ERRAND TO LAST FOREVER.
The crossing guard says, SO ONE MORE TRIP?
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan’s glove falls on the road.
[Whooshing]
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, UH-OH. ARYAN! YOU DROPPED YOUR GLOVE! OH, WELL. SO HE DROPPED HIS HAT AND HIS GLOVE. AT LEAST HE HASN'T DROPPED ANY FOOD.
Aryan drops the food. He picks the bag up.
[Thump]
Colin narrates, I'M SURE IT'S STILL GOOD.
On the sidewalk, Abhijeet says, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB. VERY GOOD! DID YOU GET EVERYTHING NOW?
Abhijeet takes the bag from Aryan.
[Bag rustling]
Aryan says, NO.
Abhijeet asks, ARE YOU ALL GOOD?
Aryan says, NO. ONE MORE. I'LL DO ONE MORE TIME.
Abhijeet says, ALL RIGHT.
Aryan says, BYE-BYE!
Aryan runs down the sidewalk away from his dad. Abhijeet waves.
[Playful music plays]
Colin narrates, THE FOOD IS PROBABLY COLD BY NOW. BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER TO ARYAN, BECAUSE THIS IS HIS BEST DAY EVER.
Aryan walks past a bus shelter and waves at the people waiting inside.
Colin narrates, I DON'T THINK ARYAN ACTUALLY KNOWS THOSE PEOPLE AT THE BUS STOP.
Aryan arrives at the intersection.
[Engines humming]
Subtitle: “I’m ready to cross it one more time.”
The crossing guard says, WAIT. OKAY, LET'S GO.
Colin narrates, HEY, ARYAN. YOUR GLOVE. YOUR GLOVE!
Aryan says, LOOK, MY GLOVE.
The crossing guard says, UH-OH. GOT IT?
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “I dropped it when I was walking. I dropped it on the road.”
The crossing guard says, YOU DROPPED IT? I'LL WAIT HERE AGAIN FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, OKAY. THIS SHOULD BE THE LAST TRIP, AND THEN HE CAN FINALLY GO HOME AND EAT, AND-- OH, IT'S THAT STUBBORN DOOR AGAIN.
Aryan pulls on the restaurant door.
[Aryan grunting]
The restaurant worker opens the door.
She says, OH, IT'S TOO HEAVY. AGAIN, BUDDY?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, BUT YOU FORGOT SOMETHING.
[Background beeping]
Aryan asks, WHAT?
The restaurant worker says, WHAT ABOUT THE DRINK?
Aryn picks up the last bag, and the restaurant worker brings another bag to Aryan.
Aryan says, AHH!
The restaurant worker says, AH-HA!
Colin narrates, OH, NO. DON'T TELL ME HE'S GOT TWO MORE TRIPS? OH, PHEW. THE RESTAURANT LADY SHOWED HIM THE OLD HANDLES-IN-THE-BAG TRICK.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan walks with a bag hanging from each wrist.
The restaurant worker asks, GOOD?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, OKAY. THANK YOU. YOU COMING BACK OR NO?
Aryan says, NO.
The restaurant worker pushes the door open for Aryan.
[Engines humming]
The restaurant worker says, OH, OKAY. OKAY.
Aryan says, I THINK I WON'T COME BACK AGAIN.
The restaurant worker says, OH, OKAY. THAT'S GOOD.
Aryan crosses the intersection with the crossing guard.
[Upbeat music plays]
The crossing guard says, HAVE A NICE DAY.
Aryan says, OKAY.
Subtitle: “I’m pretty sure I won’t come back.”
Colin narrates, HE DID IT! ALL THE ERRANDS COMPLETE, AND JUST IN TIME, BECAUSE MOM JUST GOT BACK FROM THE OFFICE.
Deepa and Abhijeet wait in front of their house.
Deepa says, OH, HE'S HERE, LOOK. OH, MY GOD! THERE ARE TWO BAGS.
[Both laughing]
Abhijeet says, OH, MY GOD. TWO BAGS, HUH?
Aryan walks slowly, holding the two bags.
Deepa says, OH, LOOK AT YOU!
Abhijeet says, COME ON! YOU DID IT!
Aryan says, I GOT EVERYTHING I NEED.
Abhijeet says, YOU DID? WHOO-HOO!
[Applause, cheering]
Aryan’s parents take the bags.
Subtitle: “I got all the drinks.”
Abhijeet says, OH, MY GOD. OH, DRINKS TOO? MY GOODNESS.
Deepa hugs Aryan.
She says, YOU DID SO GREAT, BABY!
Abhijeet says, YOUR HANDS HURT NOW, BETA?
In the interview, Abhijeet says, AS A PARENT, I WAS SO PROUD OF HIM.
Deepa agrees, SUPER PROUD.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, AND HE-- HE JUST SLAMMED IT, I GUESS.
[Deepa chuckling]
Deepa says, YEAH.
Inside the house, Aryan, his older brother, and his parents sit at the table. Abhijeet opens a container of rice.
Abhijeet says, AHH... WHAT IS THIS?
Deepa says, WOW.
Aryan says, IT'S WHAT YOU SAID. IT'S SPICY RICE.
Abhijeet says, SPICY RICE FOR WHOM?
Aryan says, FOR YOU AND MOMMY.
Abhijeet says, OH, OKAY.
In the interview, Deepa says, IT WAS SO FUNNY WHEN YOU ASKED HIM, "WHAT IS THIS?" AND HE'S LIKE, "IT'S WHAT YOU SAID."
Abhijeet says, YEAH, EXACTLY, RIGHT?
Deepa says, OKAY, HE GOT WHAT HE ASKED FOR.
Abhijeet says, IT WAS ALL WRONG.
[Laughing]
Aryan says, AND THIS ONE IS FOR YOU, MOMMY.
Deepa says, THANK YOU, ARYAN.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, CONSIDERING ARYAN IS DOING THAT, I THINK THAT MEAL WAS THE TASTIEST FOOD THAT I EVER HAD AS A PARENT.
Deepa agrees, YEAH.
At the table, Aryan’s older brother says, BECAUSE ARYAN DID IT BY HIMSELF.
Deepa says, WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.
Deepa high-fives Aryan.
Abhijeet says, I'M SO PROUD OF YOU, ARYAN.
Aryan’s older brother says, GOOD JOB, ARYAN.
Aryan says, I COULD DO IT EVERY DAY.
Abhijeet says, YOU CAN DO IT EVERY DAY. EXACTLY.
[Deepa chuckling]
In the interview, Deepa says, HE WAS REALLY AMAZING TODAY, SO THAT KIND OF REALLY MOVED US.
Abhijeet says, AFTER THE ERRANDS, I THINK I'M GONNA LOOK AT ARYAN MORE OF A GROWN-UP RATHER THAN AS A FOUR-YEAR-OLD KID.
Deepa says, I AGREE.
At the table, Aryan says, I LOVE MY DAD AND MY MOM AND MY BROTHER.
[Cheering]
Logo: Old Enough!
[Playful music plays]
A school bus stops by a sidewalk. Inside a two-storey red brick house, The curly-haired children play basketball.
Colin narrates, IN SNOW-CAPPED SOUTHERN ONTARIO, WHERE REGULAR LIFE MOTORS ON, LIVE A COUPLE OF SIBLINGS JUST HAVING A BALL.
[Both children giggling]
Colin narrates, PRESENTING A SPECTACULAR SISTER-BROTHER COMBO: SIX-YEAR-OLD BROOKLYN AND FOUR-YEAR-OLD LINCOLN.
The curly-haired children shove each other on a child-sized chiar. Text beside the girl, Brooklyn, reads, “Age 6.” Text beside the boy, Lincoln, reads, “Age 4.”
[Giggling]
Colin narrates, NOW, IF IT SEEMS LIKE THESE TWO CAN LIGHT UP A ROOM, THEY CERTAINLY CAN.
Brooklyn and Lincoln kneel by a toy cabinet. They build a tall structure out of plastic squares.
Lincoln says, I'M MAKING THE CASTLE.
Colin narrates, BUT THEY CAN ALSO MESS IT UP.
The castle falls apart. Lincoln dumps bins of toys on the floor.
[Clattering, exclaiming]
Brooklyn says, THAT'S A BIG MESS, LINCOLN.
Colin narrates, WHICH IS GREAT WHEN YOU HAVE A MICROMANAGING MOM WHO WILL ALWAYS STEP IN AND DO EVERYTHING FOR YOU.
The blonde-haired woman, their mom, picks up the toys.
In an interview, their mom, Susanna, sits beside their dad, Chris, in a kitchen. Chris has short black hair, a black beard, and a black moustache. He wears a grey suit and a white shirt.
Chris says, SUSANNA IS A HELICOPTER PARENT. SUSANNA IS THERE...
[Imitating helicopter]
[Susanna laughing, upbeat music plays]
Susanna says, I BELIEVE THE KIDS HAVE GROWN TO RELY ON ME. THEY PROBABLY ARE MORE ABLE TO DO CERTAIN THINGS, BUT I DON'T ALLOW IT.
Colin narrates, AND THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM BEGINS.
In the house, Brooklyn and Lincoln play basketball.
[Banging]
Chris says, OKAY, ARRÊT!
[Children giggling]
Colin narrates, DAD IS READY TO SEE WHAT BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN CAN DO ON THEIR OWN. MOM, ON THE OTHER HAND...
In the interview, Susanna says, AS A CONTROL FREAK MOM, IT'S CHALLENGING FOR ME TO ALLOW THEM TO GO INTO THE COMMUNITY FOR THE FIRST TIME WITHOUT US BEING THERE.
Chris says, BROOKLYN MAY BE HESITANT TO GO AND RUN AN ERRAND BY HERSELF. LINCOLN, HE MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT MORE BOLD AND WANNA TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE. I'M NOT SURE HOW THEY'RE MANAGE, BUT THIS IS GONNA BE INTERESTING.
[Susanna laughing]
A light dusting of snow covers houses and cars. Inside Brooklyn and Lincoln’s house, a crew hides cameras. A crewmember snaps a clapperboard in front of a camera.
[Upbeat music plays, tapping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A WINTRY EARLY MORNING AT BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN'S HOUSE, WHERE THE OLD ENOUGH! CREW IS SETTING UP HIDDEN CAMERAS
TO FOLLOW THE SIBLINGS OUT ON THEIR VERY FIRST ERRAND.
SEE, DAD HAS A SPECIAL DINNER PLANNED FOR TONIGHT, AND HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO PICK UP ALL THE INGREDIENTS.
Susanna, Brooklyn, and Lincoln enter the kitchen.
In the interview, Chris says, I'M GONNA BE MAKING A GUYANESE DISH TONIGHT TO SHOW THEM AND TEACH THEM SOME OF THE TRADITIONS THAT I WAS RAISED UPON.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, TO TOP IT OFF, MOM ALSO GOT A CALL FROM THEIR NEIGHBOUR, LOOKING FOR SOME EXTRA WINTER CLOTHES. SO IT'S TIME TO PUT AWAY HER MICROMANAGING WAYS AND LET BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN FINALLY HELP HER OUT.
In the kitchen, Brooklyn and Lincoln eat at the table. Susanna sits down.
Susanna says, I KNOW WE HAD SOME EXTRA COATS FOR YOU. REMEMBER, WE WERE PUTTING SOME STUFF IN A BAG FOR JACK?
Brooklyn says, YEAH.
Susanna says, SO JOANNA ASKED IF IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF WE COULD BRING THE BAG OVER TO HER HOUSE. SO DO YOU THINK IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF THE TWO OF YOU GO TOGETHER?
Brooklyn asks, HOW?
Lincoln says, with his mouth full, BY OURSELVES?
Susanna says, YEAH. DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GO BY YOURSELF?
Both children say, YEAH.
Susanna says, YOU DO? OKAY.
Colin narrates, NOW, THAT'S THE LOOK OF A COUPLE OF KIDS READY TO DO SOMETHING ON THEIR OWN!
Susanna says, AFTER THAT, DADDY NEEDS SOME GROCERIES. HE'S GONNA MAKE US SOME FOOD LATER TODAY. SO I NEED TO GO TO THE GIRL'S HOUSE THAT WORKS WITH ME DOWN THE STREET. DO YOU THINK YOU'RE ABLE TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE FOR ME?
Brooklyn says, YEAH, WE COULD.
Susanna says, OH, GOOD.
On an animated map, a dotted line following two small animated figures shows a path from home to Jack’s house. A graphic of coats pops up over the house.
[Rustling, upbeat music plays, popping]
Colin narrates, OOH, NOT JUST ONE ERRAND, BUT TWO! TO HELP MOM AND DAD, BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN WILL CARRY A BAG THAT WEIGHS ALMOST AS MUCH AS THEY DO THROUGH THE NEIGHBOURHOOD TO DELIVER WINTER COATS TO THEIR BEST FRIEND, JACK.
[Car horn honking]
On an animated map, a dotted line follows the car moving down the street. The car stops in front of a house, and the two animated figures leave and walk to a "Market." A sign reads, “Busy intersection.” Graphics of the ingredients appear above the Market. The animated figures return to the car.
[Tires screeching, boinging, upbeat music continues, popping]
Colin narrates, THEN MOM WILL PICK UP THE KIDS AND DRIVE THEM ACROSS TOWN TO WHERE SHE HAS A BUSINESS MEETING. WHILE SHE'S THERE, BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN WILL WALK A FEW BLOCKS, CROSSING A BUSY INTERSECTION TO GET TO DAD'S FAVOURITE AFRICAN MARKET, WHERE THEY'LL BUY OKRA, A BAG OF RICE, ONIONS, THREE YAMS, SALTFISH, AND FOUR PLANTAINS BEFORE RETURNING TO MEET MOM WHERE SHE DROPPED THEM OFF.
In the interview, Chris says, THE BEST PART OF ALL HAPPEN TO BE THE PLANTAINS, AND WE GET TO FRY THIS UP KIND OF THING. YOU HAVE IT, IT'S LIKE A SIDE DISH WITH THE WHOLE MEAL, AND I JUST CAN'T WAIT.
Brooklyn and Lincoln leave the house. Lincoln carries a large black garbage bag.
[Energetic music plays]
They both say, BYE, MOMMY.
Susanna says, GOOD JOB, GUYS.
Brooklyn walks in front of Lincoln.
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN, I NEED A LITTLE HELP.
They both shout, BYE.
In the doorway, Susanna says, OH! I'M, LIKE, READY TO CRY. VERY NERVOUS. VERY NERVOUS. I THINK THEY'LL BE OKAY. BUT I'M NERVOUS.
Brooklyn and Lincoln walk up the middle of the road. Susanna shuts the door of the house and wipes her eyes.
[Door banging]
Brooklyn carries the bag on the street.
Colin narrates, DON'T WORRY, MOM. YOUR KIDS WILL BE JUST FINE ON THEIR OWN.
Subtitle: “I miss mommy.”
Brooklyn looks at Lincoln.
Colin says, OKAY, SPOKE TOO SOON. MAYBE DAD WAS WRONG ABOUT LINCOLN BEING BOLD AND TAKING ON THIS CHALLENGE.
Brooklyn says, LINCOLN! HOLD-- HOLD THIS.
Brooklyn gives Lincoln the bag.
[Bag rustling]
Colin narrates, THAT'S IT, BROOKLYN! DISTRACT LINCOLN FROM BEING HOMESICK BY MAKING HIM CARRY THE BAG.
Brooklyn says, GOOD JOB, LINCOLN. LOOK BOTH WAYS... GOOD. OKAY, YOU HAVE TO JUST MAKE IT ACROSS, OKAY? AND LEAVE IT TO ME.
They cross a street.
Colin narrates, WHAT A GOOD BIG SISTER.
[Upbeat music plays]
Brooklyn asks, WANT ME TO HOLD IT NOW?
Brooklyn takes the bag.
Brooklyn says, THERE WE GO. THE HOUSE IS RIGHT THERE.
Lincoln takes the bag.
Lincoln says, I GOT IT.
Colin narrates, LIKE I'VE ALWAYS SAID, TEAMWORK CAN OVERCOME ANY ENORMOUS, OVERSTUFFED GARBAGE BAG FULL OF CLOTHES.
Brooklyn takes the bag.
Brooklyn says, I'LL DO IT.

Brooklyn and Lincoln walk down the driveway and stand on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, OKAY. HEAVY BAG OF CLOTHES DROPPED OFF AND A HUG FROM A NEIGHBOURHOOD MOM.
Brooklyn says, FREEDOM!
Colin narrates, NOW TO FIND THEIR MOM AND GET DAD'S GROCERIES.
Brooklyn says, WE'RE WAITING HERE.
[Car engine humming, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND THERE SHE IS!
Lincoln and Brooklyn run down a sidewalk towards the car.
Brooklyn says, WE HAVE TO WALK ACROSS THE ROAD.
Lincoln says, WE HAVE TO GO A LITTLE BIT ACROSS.
Brooklyn says, WE HAVE TO WALK ACROSS THE ROAD, BRO.
[Car door clicks open]
Susanna asks, DID YOU DO IT?
Lincoln says, YEAH.
Susanna says, YOU DID IT? GOOD JOB! OKAY. LET'S GO.
Lincoln and Brooklyn climb into booster seats in the back of the car.
Lincoln says, MOMMY?

Susanna says, YEAH?
Susanna says, OKAY. LET'S-- THAT'S OKAY. LISTEN, I JUST NEED YOU TO DO ME A FAVOUR. YOU'RE DOING SUCH A GOOD JOB. COME. YOU WANNA GIVE MOMMY A HUG?
Lincoln moves between the front seats and hugs Susanna.
Susanna says, OKAY, LINCOLN. OKAY, BUBBA. LISTEN. YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB, OKAY? THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT. LOOK, IT'S THE FIRST TIME YOU DID IT BY YOURSELF. YOU ACTUALLY LEFT ME ALL BY YOURSELF.
Brooklyn says happily, YEAH, WE'RE DOING IT AGAIN!
Susanna says, YEAH.
Susanna drives the car.
[Engine humming]
Colin narrates, AT LEAST BROOKLYN SEEMS HAPPY. MAYBE THAT HUG AND PEP TALK FROM MOM IS ALL LINCOLN NEEDED TO KEEP GOING.
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN?
Brooklyn says, YEAH?
Lincoln suggests, IF YOU KEEP TALKING WHILE WE'RE WALKING, IT WILL KIND OF MAKE ME FEEL A LITTLE BIT HAPPIER.
Brooklyn says, OR FORGET MOM AND HAVE YOUR BIG SISTER BE YOUR SUPPORT.
Susanna says, OKAY, SO LISTEN, I HAVE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS GROCERY ORDER, OKAY?
LINCOLN, YOU'RE GONNA REMEMBER SALTFISH, THREE YAMS.
Lincoln says, THREE YAMS.
Susanna says, FOUR PLANTAIN.
Lincoln says, FOUR PLANTAIN.

Both children say, OKRA.
Susanna says, AND BANANA CHIP.
Brooklyn says, BANANA CHIPS.
Susanna smiles and says, PLANTAIN. PLANTAIN.

Susanna says, OKAY, GET OUT, AND WE'RE GONNA GO THIS WAY, OKAY?
[Door slamming]
Susanna says, OKAY. YOUR MONEY'S IN THERE, AND YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR GROCERIES AND GONNA MEET ME BACK HERE, OKAY?
Brooklyn says, OKAY.
Lincoln follows Brooklyn on a sidewalk.
[Upbeat music plays]
Susanna says, YOU GOT THIS. BYE, GUYS.
Both children say, BYE.
Colin narrates, OH, LOOK AT THAT. LINCOLN ACTUALLY LOOKS EXCITED NOW! BUT I WONDER HOW MOM FEELS.
Sitting in the car, Susanna says, I'M SAD THAT MY SON'S SAD. I'M NERVOUS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I JUST WANNA HELP. MY KIDS ARE GROWING UP, SO IT'S GOOD.
She says, tearfully, BUT, ANYWAY...
Susanna wipes her eyes. On the sidewalk, Brooklyn and Lincoln walk together.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AWW. I THINK MOM MIGHT NEED A HUG NOW TOO. BRING IT IN, MOM!
Brooklyn says, WHAT WAS THE LIST AGAIN? SO, UM, ONION. RICE BAG. UM, BANANA CHIPS?
Colin narrates, NO! PLANTAINS!
Brooklyn says, OKRA.
Lincoln says, OKAY. OKAY.
They cross the intersection with a crossing guard and approach the market.
Subtitles: “We made it to the grocery store. Now we just have to get the stuff.” “But who’s gonna pay for it?” “We have money in our pockets, remember?”
Lincoln and Brooklyn enter the market.
Colin narrates, OKAY. DAD'S BIG DINNER COMES DOWN TO THIS.
Lincoln says, OKAY.
A store employee says, HI, GUYS.
Colin narrates, NOW, WHERE TO START?
Lincoln says, SALTFISH. WE NEED SALTFISH. WE JUST CAN ASK THE MAN.
Both children ask, DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE SALTFISH IS?
The store employee says, RIGHT IN THIS FREEZER RIGHT HERE.
Colin narrates, AS THE OLD SAYING GOES: GIVE A KID A SALTFISH AND THEY'LL LEARN NOTHING. BUT LET A KID FIND THEIR OWN SALTFISH IN A FREEZER, AND THEY'LL GROW AS A PERSON.
The store employee says, SALTFISH.
Brooklyn takes a bag out of the freezer.
[Bag rustling]
Colin narrates, PRETTY SURE THAT'S THE SAYING, BUT DON'T QUOTE ME ON IT.
Brooklyn says, OKAY, NOW WE NEED RICE. WE NEED THIS. HOLD THAT.
Brooklyn gives Lincoln a bag of rice. They put everything on the counter.
[Rustling]
Colin narrates, AND NOW TO FIND THOSE PLANTAINS.
Brooklyn and Lincoln take five bags of banana chips.
Lincoln says, FIVE OF THESE.
Brooklyn says, FIVE OF THESE.
Colin narrates, AH. BANANA CHIPS INSTEAD OF PLANTAINS. COME ON. YOU ALL SAW THIS COMING, RIGHT?
The store employee says, YOU GUYS ARE DOING THIS ALL BY YOURSELF?
[Bags rustling]
Colin narrates, SO, DINNER MIGHT BE A BIT CRUNCHY.

The store employee asks, WHAT ARE YOU GUYS COOKING TODAY?
Both children say, I DON'T KNOW.
[Employee laughing]
Brooklyn says, OKAY, THAT'S ALL WE NEED, I THINK. RIGHT, LINCOLN?
Lincoln says, THAT'S ALL.
The store employee asks, THAT'S ALL?
Brooklyn says, OKAY, LET'S SEE.
The store employee asks, WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD TO EAT?

Lincoln says, OH, WE FORGOT ONION.
The store employee asks, ONIONS?
Colin narrates, NICE SAVE, LINCOLN.
The store employee says, RIGHT BEHIND YOU, ON YOUR LEFT.
Lincoln says, LET'S GET ONE OF THESE.
Brooklyn picks up a bag of onions.
Brooklyn says, YEAH. I FORGOT.
The store employee says NICE SEEING YOU GUYS. HOPE YOU GUYS COME AGAIN.
Brooklyn says, YEAH, WE WILL.
Brooklyn and Lincoln leave the market. Brooklyn carries three bags, and Lincoln carries one.
[Upbeat music plays]
Brooklyn says, SHE'S REALLY HEAVY!
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. WITH MOST OF THEIR GROCERIES AND MANY UNNECESSARY BANANA CHIPS, THE DUO MAKE THEIR WAY
BACK TO MOM.
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN, COULD WE JUST TAKE A BREAK?
Brooklyn says, NO, WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT.
[Lincoln groaning]
Colin narrates, IS IT JUST ME, OR IS THIS THE HEAVIEST ERRAND EVER? AND, UH, DAD, NEXT TIME YOU WANNA MAKE A SPECIAL DINNER, MAYBE TRY SOMETHING WITH FEWER INGREDIENTS!
The children stop and put their bags on the sidewalk. They sling the bags over their shoulders and walk.
Brooklyn says, IT'S GETTING REALLY HEAVY, LINCOLN.
Lincoln says, OKAY, I THINK I NEED TO TAKE A MINUTE.
[Panting]
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN! I NEED TO TAKE A MINUTE.
Brooklyn says, DO YOU WANNA SWITCH BAGS? HERE.
Colin narrates, GOOD PLAN. THESE TWO HAVE BECOME HEAVY BAG-SWAPPING PROS.
Brooklyn says, COME ON, THIS IS SO EASY.
At the car, Susanna says, I DON'T SEE THEM YET. I HOPE THEY'RE COMING SOON. OH, THEY ARE HERE! YAY!
Susanna waves. Brooklyn waves back.
[Susanna clapping, upbeat music plays]
Susanna says, WAY TO GO! YOU DID IT!
In the interview, Susanna says, LINCOLN IN THAT MOMENT WENT FROM BEING THE SADDEST BOY IN THE CAR TO THEN, UH, BEING THE MOST EXCITED.
Susanna says, OH, HONEY! YOU DID IT! BROOKLYN! YOU DID IT!
She hugs them both.
Susanna says, HOW ARE YOU? YOU GOOD?

Susanna says, GOOD JOB. GOOD JOB, GUYS. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU. HOW WAS IT?
They ride in the car.
Brooklyn says, GOOD.
Susanna says, GOOD!
Brooklyn says, THAT WAS REALLY HEAVY FOR US TO CARRY BACK.
At home in the kitchen, Susanna asks, WHAT ELSE DID YOU HAVE TO GET? DO YOU REMEMBER?
[Upbeat music plays]
Lincoln cheers, YAMS!

Susanna says, OH, MY. THAT'S-- WHAT?

In the kitchen, Chris holds a bag of banana chips.
Chris asks, WHAT IS THIS?
Brooklyn says, BANANA CHIPS.
[Bag rustling, Chris laughing]
Chris says, BANANA CHIPS? I WANTED PLANTAIN, LIKE THAT. THE VEGETATION.
In the interview, Chris says, WE WANTED THEM TO GET PLANTAINS, THE BANANA, SO THAT I COULD FRY IT UP AND COOK IT.
In the kitchen, Chris says, WE'RE GONNA HAVE THIS AS A SNACK ANYWAY, OKAY?
Susanna says, SO STILL GOOD. GOOD JOB, GUYS.
Chris says, TAKE IT ALL OUT.
In the interview, Chris says, I'M SO PROUD OF SUSANNA FOR LETTING GO.
Susanna says AW, THANKS, HON.
In the kitchen, Chris pours rice into a measuring cup.
[Rice rattling]
Chris says, HERE WE GO.
In the interview, Susanna says, I STILL THINK AS A MOM, I AM STILL VERY PROTECTIVE. IT'S VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO LET THEM GO.
Chris says, AND I THINK THEY'RE READY TO GET THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSE.
[Susanna laughing]
In the kitchen, Susanna asks, WHICH ONE OF YOU TWO WANNA GO BACK TO THE STORE TO GET THE REAL, RIGHT PLANTAIN?
Both say, NOT ME.
Susanna says, WHAT?
Lincoln says, IT'S TOO LONG!

Outside, Sky jumps off a rock. Text reads, “Age 4.” Luna turns a steering wheel in a play structure. Text reads, “Age 3.”
[Whooshing]
Colin narrates, JUST LIKE LASER-FOCUSED 4-YEAR-OLD SKY AND HIS FEISTY 3-YEAR-OLD SISTER LUNA.
[Luna screaming]
Colin narrates, WHILE MOM AND DAD APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THESE RASCALS GET UP TO, THEY'RE MORE CONCERNED WITH TEACHING SKY AND LUNA ALL THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO GROW UP.
Sky and Luna sit at a table and write in workbooks. The black-haired woman, Sky and Luna’s mom, crouches beside Sky.
Sky and Luna’s mom says, SO WE'RE GOING TO ERASE THE S, RIGHT?
In an interview, Sky and Luna’s parents sit together. Their mom, Emily, wears a white hooded sweater with black polka dots, and black-framed eyeglasses. Their dad, Jeffrey, wears a black jacket. He has thick black hair and a moustache.
Jeffrey says, I SEE MYSELF AS A VERY STRICT PARENT. I REALLY LIKE TO ENFORCE DISCIPLINE BECAUSE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER I WAS REALLY BAD AT FOCUSING. IT WASN'T A GOOD FEELING.
At the table, Emily says, OKAY, LUNA, THAT'S REALLY GOOD. YEAH, KEEP GOING.
In the interview, Emily says, I THINK MY PARENTS WERE A BIT MORE PROTECTIVE OF ME.
At the table, Emily asks Sky, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS WORD IS? CAN.
In the interview, Emily says, SO A LOT OF TIMES, I WAS ALWAYS RELYING ON MY PARENTS TO DO CERTAIN THINGS. AND SO I WANT MY KIDS TO LEARN TO DO THINGS EVEN SIMPLE TASKS AS LIKE DOING LAUNDRY OR LIKE, YOU KNOW, JUST HELPING ME PUT AWAY THE DISHES, THINGS LIKE THAT.
At the table, Emily asks, YEAH, CAN YOU HOLD ONTO YOUR PENCIL? WHERE DOES YOUR FINGER GO? THERE WE GO.
At the table, Luna positions her fingers on her pencil. Outside, Jeffrey carries Luna as he chases Sky across a field.
[Background chatter]
Colin narrates, SO FAR, MOM AND DAD HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB TEACHING SKY AND LUNA INDEPENDENCE. BUT NOW THEY'RE READY TO SEE WHAT THE KIDS CAN DO IN THE REAL WORLD.
In the interview, Emily says, I WANT TO SEE HOW FAR THEY CAN GO WITHOUT MY HELP. I THINK SKY WILL PROBABLY TAKE CHARGE, BUT YEAH, LUNA IS KIND OF LIKE A WILD CARD HERE, SO I'M NOT 100 PERCENT SURE WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH HER, BUT I MEAN WE'LL SEE.
Pink morning light falls on tall trees, buildings, and houses in a residential neighbourhood.
[Gentle music plays]
[Birds chirping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A COOL FALL MORNING.
SO TONIGHT, MOM IS PLANNING ON MAKING THE FAMILY'S TRADITIONAL HOT POT. A SOUP THEY LOVE TO EAT WHEN THE WEATHER GETS COLD. SHE ALSO NEEDS TO REGISTER THE KIDS FOR SKATING LESSONS, SO IT'S THE PERFECT DAY TO PUT EVERYTHING THEY'VE TAUGHT SKY AND LUNA TO THE TEST.
Emily says, SKY AND LUNA, I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY.
Sky sits behind Luna on the couch.
Subtitle: “I don’t want to help you.”
Emily repeats, YOU DON'T WANT TO HELP ME?
Colin narrates, WELL, THIS ISN'T STARTING OUT THE WAY MOM HOPED.
Subtitle: “Well I’m going to help you.”
Emily asks, PLEASE, CAN YOU GUYS HELP ME? COME HERE. SO I NEED TO BUY SOME INGREDIENTS FOR, LIKE, OUR HOT POT, RIGHT? BUT I NEED TO REGISTER YOU GUYS FOR SKATING. SO THAT MEANS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE TO GO TO THE SUPERMARKET FOR ME. SO I'M GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO BUY.
OKAY. ARE YOU GOING TO REMEMBER? WE NEED LETTUCE. SO [SPEAKS CANTONESE] LETTUCE. OKAY?
Subtitle: “Yeah, lettuce are my yummy.”
[Toy squeaking]
Emily says, THEY ARE YUMMY.
Subtitle: “I go buy that one and purple ice cream.”
Emily says, OH, PURPLE ICE CREAM. OKAY, WE CAN GET THE PURPLE ICE CREAM.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, I CAN'T IMAGINE PURPLE ICE CREAM GOING INTO HOT POT. BUT IF IT GETS SKY AND LUNA TO HELP, THEN, HEY. WHY NOT?
Emily says, SO CAN WE GO? OKAY. GO. ARE YOU GUYS READY?
Emily backs her car out of her driveway.
Colin narrates, OFF THEY GO ON A QUICK CAR RIDE ACROSS TOWN TO THE LOCAL ARENA.
SO WHILE MOM WILL BE REGISTERING THEM FOR SKATING, THE KIDS CAN WALK A SHORT BLOCK TO THE ASIAN GROCERY STORE TO FIND ALL THE INGREDIENTS THEY'LL NEED FOR TONIGHT'S DELICIOUS HOT POT SOUP.
An animated map shows the inside of the grocery store. A dotted line follows two small animated figures as they walk through the aisles, and graphics of food pop up as they shop.
[Popping]
Colin narrates, ONCE INSIDE, SKY AND LUNA WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE THE UNENDING AISLES TO LOCATE THE PRODUCE SECTION SO THEY CAN PICK UP A LARGE HEAD OF LETTUCE AND A BLOCK OF TOFU. FROM THERE, THEY'LL LOOK FOR THE MEAT COOLER TO GET SOME SLICED BEEF, AND THEN FIND THE PROPER AISLE FOR A PACKAGE OF MUSHROOM SOUP BASE.
ONCE THEY HAVE ALL OF THAT, THEY'LL HEAD OVER TO THE OTHER END OF THE STORE TO GET SKY'S FAVOURITE PURPLE ICE CREAM FOR DESSERT.
[Cheering]
Emily parks the car.
Inside the car, a child sings, WHOAAA-WA-WA!
Subtitle: “I’m so scared.”

Subtitle: “I don’t want to go to the supermarket.”
Emily says, OH, BUT WHY NOT? GO-GO WILL BE WITH YOU.
Subtitle: “Yeah, I like Go-Go.”
Emily says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE. BUT AS LONG AS LUNA HAS HER BIG BROTHER SKY, AKA GO-GO, WITH HER LOOKS LIKE SHE'LL BE JUST FINE.
Sky and Luna hold hands. They each hold an empty, bright green reusable shopping bag.
Emily says, READY? YOU'RE GOING TO HOLD HANDS? OKAY, GO. GOOD JOB. OH, WHAT?
[Luna cries]
Emily says, OH.
[Luna cries]
Luna walks back to Emily, and they hold hands.
Emily asks, DO YOU WANT ME TO WALK WITH YOU TO THE SUPERMARKET? OKAY, I'LL WALK WITH YOU FIRST. OKAY.
Luna says, YEAH.
Emily asks, ARE YOU GOING TO BE OKAY? YEAH, YOU'RE GOING TO BE OKAY. WE'RE GOING TO TURN THIS WAY.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. MUM'S GOT THIS UNDER CONTROL, AND I THINK LUNA'S BACK ON BOARD.
Emily stops outside the supermarket. Sky takes Luna’s hand, and they walk to the entrance.
Emily says, GO. YEAH. MOMMY'S RIGHT HERE. YEAH. GO, GO, GO.
[Luna whines]
Sky says, COME ON.
[Happy music plays]
Luna says, OH.
Luna stops walking and looks back at Emily.
[Cries]
Colin narrates, OH NO.

Sky says, YOU STAY THERE ALL DAY.

Sky says, YOU STAY THERE ALL DAY.
[Luna cries]
Luna says, I DON'T WANT YOU TO STAY HERE.
Sky says, OH, OKAY. GO-GO, YOU GO THEN. GO, GO, GO. SKY GO. OKAY. THANK YOU, SKY.
Sky walks into the supermarket by himself. He pushes a child-sized grocery cart and walks in the produce section.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, WELL, LUNA TRIED HER BEST, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE SKY IS FLYING SOLO ON THIS ONE. WHICH MEANS IT'S UP TO HIM TO REMEMBER MOM'S LIST OF GROCERIES. SKY, YOU'RE IN THE FRUIT AND VEGGIE SECTION. "ROMAINE" CALM. "LETTUCE" HELP YOU.
Sky puts lettuce in the cart.
Colin narrates, I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CREDIT, BUT I THINK MY LITTLE PUN SORT OF HELPED HIM OUT A BIT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, TOFU, CHECK! OH, THERE'S THE BEEF. STRETCH, SKY. STRETCH! USE THOSE LITTLE ARMS OF YOURS.
A shopper asks, DID YOU NEED HELP REACHING SOMETHING?
Sky says, NO.
Subtitle: “My mom said I go to Bestco by myself.”
The shopper says, OH, WOW, YOU'RE SHOPPING ALL BY YOURSELF?
Colin narrates, SORRY, LADY. NO TIME TO CHAT. SKY'S ON A MISSION.
Sky looks down the aisles.
Colin narrates, HMM. I THINK SKY MIGHT NEED SOME HELP.
A woman with long, straight black hair asks, DO YOU NEED HELP?
Colin narrates, CALLED IT!
Sky says, I NEED PURPLE ICE CREAM.
The straight-haired woman repeats, ICE CREAM?
Sky says, YEAH. PURPLE.
The straight-haired woman says, ICE CREAM IS ON THE FREEZER SIDE.

Sky asks, WHAT ARE THIS?
The straight-haired woman says, IT'S JUICE. DO YOU WANT JUICE?

The straight-haired woman says, HUN? YOU WANT THAT? THIS IS ALL BEEF. THE WHOLE, WHOLE, WHOLE BIG THING?
Subtitle: “I want one of that.”
Sky says, YEAH. I WANT ONE OF THAT.
Colin narrates, LOOK, I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING. MOM DIDN'T ASK FOR POT ROAST, BUT SHE DID ASK FOR BEEF, SO LET'S CUT THIS KID SOME SLACK.
The straight-haired woman asks, SO IS THAT ALL? ARE WE DONE?
She puts the pot roast in the cart.
Subtitle: “I want to go to pay.”
The straight-haired woman says, YEAH TO PAY IS OVER THERE. SEE THE CHECK OUT COUNTER?
Sky says, YEAH.
Sky puts his items on a conveyor belt at the check-out counter.
Colin narrates, LET'S SEE. SKY GOT BEEF. MORE BEEF. PURPLE ICE CREAM, LETTUCE, TOFU AND O.J. NOT QUITE EVERYTHING MOM WANTED, BUT NOT TOO BAD FOR A FOUR-YEAR-OLD.
Sky pays and gets his change. He pushes his cart outside. Emily smiles and waves.
[Cart rattling]
Emily says, WOW, THAT IS SO GOOD!
YOU HAVE-- PURPLE ICE CREAM. VERY GOOD. OKAY. WHAT IS THIS?
Emily holds up the pot roast.

[Upbeat music plays, cart rattling]
Emily asks, WHAT IS THIS?
Luna says, BEEF.
Emily says, BEEF? YEAH. BUT IT'S-- I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO COOK THIS.
Sky pushes his cart into the supermarket.
Colin narrates, OKAY. IF YOU WERE A SOUP BASE, WHERE WOULD YOU BE?
Sky picks up a large stuffed animal and puts it in the cart.
[Bag rustling]
Colin narrates, AND WE FOUND THE STUFFED ANIMALS INSTEAD. OKAY. JUST GONNA POP THAT IN HERE AND SLIDE QUIETLY PAST THE CASH. NOTHING TO SEE HERE.
Sky pushes his cart outside without paying.
[Colin singing, cart rattling]
Emily says, YAY, SKY!
Sky proudly picks up the stuffed animal.
Sky says, I GOT THIS!
[Emily laughing]
Emily asks, WHAT IS THIS? BUT, WHERE'S THE SOUP?
Sky says, SORRY, I'LL FIND IT.

Colin narrates, OH, BOY.
Emily and Luna watch Sky trying to pick up the change.

Jeffrey says, IT'S TOO BIG. WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?
Logo: Old Enough!
[Chiming]
Pinwheels spin in a flowerbed. The blonde-haired girl walks beside an adult on a sidewalk. She holds a blue leash, and a beagle walks beside her. In a bedroom, she plays with a white stuffed bunny.
[Birds chirping]
Colin narrates, IN A QUIET SOUTHERN ONTARIO COMMUNITY, LIVES THE YOUNGEST CHILD OF A BLENDED FAMILY. A KID WHO ADORES HER PUPPY BINGO, HER STUFFED BUNNY AND EXTREME SPORTS. IT'S 6-YEAR-OLD HANNAH.
Hannah rides a bicycle quickly on a street. In a backyard, she poses and smiles. Text reads, “Age 6.”
In an interview, Hannah’s parents, Sarah and Adam, sit in a living room. The brown-haired woman, Hannah’s mom, Sarah, wears a brown shirt. Hannah’s dad, Adam, wears a blue shirt. He has short brown hair, a short beard, and a moustache.
Sarah says, HANNAH IS THE YOUNGEST OF 4 KIDS, AND SHE'S REALLY EAGER TO BE JUST LIKE THE BIG KIDS.
A photograph shows Adam holding Hannah. Sarah stands beside him. To Hannah’s left is her older sister, an older brother, and a teenage brother. A second photograph shows Sarah and Hannah sitting on the stairs. Adam leans against the staircase beside Hannah. A slender teenage boy and a slender teenage girl sit on the lower steps.
Adam says, THE FACT THAT WE ARE A BLENDED FAMILY IS DEFINITELY A UNIQUE SITUATION. WHEN SARAH AND I GOT TOGETHER, WE HAD ALMOST AN INSTANT FAMILY. BUT WITH HANNAH, SHE'S OURS, AND WE GET TO DO IT TOGETHER.
Hannah’s teenage brother uses a weight machine. Beside him, Hannah lifts a weight.
Hannah asks, IS IT HEAVY?
Her teenage brother says, A LITTLE BIT.
In a bedroom, Hannah’s sister puts on lipstick. Hannah watches her and puts lipstick on.
In the interview, Sarah says, HANNAH NEVER WANTS TO BE LEFT OUT OR FEEL LIKE ANYBODY'S GETTING TO DO ANYTHING THAT SHE'S NOT ALLOWED TO DO.
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS SHE LEARNED HOW TO SAY WAS, 'I CAN DO IT..
In a kitchen, Hannah spreads jam on a piece of bread.
Hannah says, I CAN DO THIS, MAMA.
Sarah says, OKAY.
Hannah bites into her sandwich.
Colin narrates, BEING THE YOUNGEST IN THE FAMILY, HANNAH WANTS TO SHOW
HER PARENTS SHE'S MATURE ENOUGH TO DO THE THINGS HER TEENAGE SIBLINGS GET TO DO. SO LETTING HER VENTURE OFF ON HER OWN FOR THE FIRST TIME MIGHT BE THE PERFECT FIRST STEP.
In the kitchen, Hannah says, NOW LET'S GET THIS TOASTED UP.
Colin narrates, MOM IS EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HANNAH CAN DO ON HER OWN, BUT DAD ISN'T QUITE AS READY.
Adam walks beside Hannah as she walks the beagle, Bingo.
In the interview, Adam says, YEAH, I'D HAVE TO AGREE WITH THAT.
Sarah says, I THINK YOU WANT TO BABY HER BECAUSE YOU ENJOY THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE A LITTLE KID AGAIN.
At a table, Adam and Hannah write on pieces of paper.
Adam says, YEAH. SO FOR THE NEXT ONE, I'M GOING TO DO TWO IN A ROW.
In the interview, Adam says, THE MORE FREEDOM SHE HAS, IT DEFINITELY PUTS ME OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE. HAVING HANNAH GO OFF ON HER OWN IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT, BUT I WANT TO SEE IF SHE CAN DO IT.
Adam grimaces and shrugs.
[Both parents chuckling]
In Hannah’s house, Adam runs down a staircase.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BUSY DAY AT HANNAH'S HOUSE. MOM AND DAD HAVE A BILLION THINGS TO DO, BUT NO TIME TO DO THEM WHILE WORKING FROM HOME.
SO AFTER OUR SNEAKY OLD ENOUGH TEAM, DISGUISED AS WORKERS DOING HOME REPAIRS, PLANTS HIDDEN CAMERAS TO CAPTURE HANNAH'S FIRST ERRAND.
The crew puts cameras in the garage. In the house, Adam sits on the couch.
Subtitles: “Yeah, we’re having trouble with the electricity.” “I got my best guy working on it right now.”
Colin narrates, MOM CALLS HANNAH OVER TO ASK FOR HER HELP.
Sarah walks to the dining room table. Hannah sits down.
Sarah asks, CAN YOU COME SIT RIGHT HERE AND TALK TO ME FOR A MINUTE?
Hannah says, YEAH.
Sarah says, WE NEED HELP TODAY BECAUSE THEY'RE TRYING TO FIX SOME THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE. SO I HAVE TO BE HOME WITH THE DOG AND DADDY HAS TO WORK.
I WAS SUPPOSED TO DROP OFF BUTTER TARTS FOR NAN LAST NIGHT AND WE DIDN'T GET THE CHANCE. SO DO YOU THINK THAT TODAY YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO DO THE ERRAND FOR ME?
Hannah asks, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
Colin narrates, UH OH. HANNAH PUSHED SO HARD FOR THIS CHANCE AT TOTAL FREEDOM, BUT MAYBE SHE'S NOT READY AFTER ALL.
Sarah asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN, YOU CAN HELP ME OUT TODAY?
[Dramatic music plays]
Sarah asks, CAN YOU GO UPSTAIRS AND GRAB BUNNY?
Subtitle: “Wait, bunny?”
Sarah says, YEAH. YOU CAN BRING BUNNY.
Hannah cheers, YAY!
In the interview, Sarah explains, SO BUNNY IS A STUFFED BUNNY THAT GOES EVERYWHERE WITH HANNAH. BUNNY HAS TO GO ON THE ERRAND BECAUSE HANNAH DOES EVERYTHING WITH BUNNY.
Sarah says, AND I NEED YOU TO BUY DOG FOOD. AND I NEED YOU TO GO TO THE TOY STORE. AND I NEED YOU TO BUY THE BIGGEST STUFFY YOU CAN FIND FOR COUSIN MILA AS A PRESENT.
ARE YOU EXCITED TO GO AND GIVE THIS A TRY TODAY?
Hannah says, YEAH.
Sarah says, YEAH?
[Hannah giggling]
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small, animated figure holding a bunny stuffy shows a path from home to Hannah’s grandparents house. A graphic of butter tarts appears over the house.
[Rustling, popping]
Colin narrates, FOR HER FIRST ERRAND BY HERSELF, HANNAH AND BUNNY WILL TRAVEL THROUGH THE WINDING NEIGHBOURHOOD WITH A PLATE FULL OF BUTTER TARTS TO REACH HER GRANDPARENTS HOUSE AND DELIVER MOM'S HOMEMADE TREATS TO THEM.
ONCE THAT'S DONE, SHE'LL HEAD OFF AGAIN AND TRAVEL A FEW BLOCKS
TOWARDS HER NEXT STOP.
On the map, a sign reads, “Tricky corner.” The figure walks to the pet store and the toy store. Graphics of a bag of dog food and a blue bear stuffy appear.
[Popping]
Colin narrates, NOW ALONG THE WAY, SHE'LL REACH A TRICKY CORNER. TURN RIGHT, SHE MAY GET COMPLETELY LOST. TURN LEFT, AND IT WILL TAKE HER TO A PLAZA WITH THE PET STORE, WHERE SHE'LL PICK UP DOG FOOD FOR HER PUPPY BINGO. ONCE SHE HAS THAT, IT'S OFF TO THE NEARBY TOY STORE TO GET A STUFFY FOR HER COUSIN MILA'S BIRTHDAY.
At the dining room table, Sarah asks, DO YOU WANT TO BRING YOUR TOOTH FAIRY MONEY?
Hannah says, YEAH, AND I CAN BUY SOME STUFF FOR ME.
Sarah says, YOU COULD BUY SOME STUFF FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, OH, BRINGING BUNNY AND GETTING TO SPEND HER TOOTH FAIRY MONEY? NO WONDER HANNAH'S EXCITED TO GO.
Hannah gets ready by the front door.
Subtitle: “I’ve never done this before.”
Sarah says, I KNOW YOU'VE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE, BUT I THINK THAT YOU'RE OLD ENOUGH. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
HERE, LET ME CARRY IT UNTIL YOU GET OUTSIDE. OKAY? DADDY IS GOING TO COME AND SAY BYE AS WELL.
Sarah carries the plate of butter tarts outside. Adam follow her and Hannah to the front walkway.
[Upbeat music plays]
Sarah hugs Hannah and kisses the top of her head.
Sarah says, I LOVE YOU.
Hannah says, I'M GOING TO MISS YOU.
Adam says, HEY. HAVE FUN.
Adam hugs Hannah and kisses her hair.
In the interview, Adam says, I'M NERVOUS FOR HER RIGHT NOW AND FOR MYSELF. I AM PUTTING TRUST IN HANNAH'S ABILITIES. AND THAT'S AT THIS POINT ALL I CAN DO BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO BE THERE WITH HER.
Outside, Sarah gives Hannah the butter tarts.
Sarah asks, CAN YOU HAVE EVERYTHING?
Hannah says, YEAH. BYE MOM. I'M GOING TO MISS YOU.
Sarah says, I'LL MISS YOU TOO.
Adam waves.
[Energetic music plays]
Hannah walks along the sidewalk.
Outside, Sarah says, I THINK I'M MORE NERVOUS THAN I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO BE.
[Adam laughing]
Adam says, YEAH, SHE'S MADE THIS WALK HUNDREDS OF TIMES, BUT NEVER ON HER OWN.
Sarah says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, WOW. MOST KIDS WOULD HAVE GOBBLED UP THOSE BUTTER TARTS BY NOW. MAYBE HANNAH IS NOT THE TYPE TO GIVE IN TO TEMPTATION. WHAT DO YOU THINK, DAD?
Inside the house, Adam says, SHE HAS THIS FASCINATION WITH CLIMBING ON TOP OF ELECTRICAL BOXES AND BIG PILES OF LEAVES, AND THERE'S SOME PRETTY BIG PILES ALONG THE WAY, SO I DON'T THINK SHE'S GOING TO GO STRAIGHT THERE.
Hannah puts the plate and Bunny on the sidewalk, jumps into a pile of leaves, and throws leaves on herself.
[Plate clatters, leaves rustle, gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, THAT'S A DAD WHO KNOWS HIS DAUGHTER.
WELL, WE GOT THAT OUT OF OUR SYSTEM. NOW GRAB BUNNY AND THE BUTTER TARTS AND BACK TO THE ERRAND. HM, BUNNY AND THE BUTTER TARTS. SOUNDS LIKE ONE OF THOSE EMO BANDS YOUR DAD LISTENS TO.
In the interview, Adam says, AND HELLO, GRANDMA AND GRANDPA.
Grandma and Grandpa clean up leaves and weed plants in their yard.
[Leaves rustling]
Grandma says, HANNAH.
Grandpa says, OH, WOW.
Grandma asks, DID YOU BRING THOSE FOR ME?
Hannah nods.
Both grandparents say, NO WAY.
Grandma says, I CAN PUT THEM ON THE STEP.
Hannah says, THEY'RE HEAVY.
Grandma says, WOW. HEY, BUNNY. HOW ARE YOU?
Colin narrates in a funny voice, I'M GOOD GRANDMA.
Colin narrates, SORRY, THAT WAS REALLY ME. STUFFED BUNNIES CAN'T ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, THEY CAN'T TALK.
Grandma asks, WHERE ARE YOU GOING AFTER THIS?
Hannah says, I'M OFF TO THE PET STORE NOW.
Grandma says, I LOVE YOU. BE A GOOD GIRL. OKAY?
Grandma hugs Hannah and kisses the top of her head. Grandpa hugs Hannah.
[Smooching]
Grandpa says, LOVE YOU.
Grandma says, WE'LL SEE YOU SOON. WE'LL SEE BINGO TOO.
Grandpa says, OKAY. BE SAFE.
Hannah says, OKAY, GOODBYE.
Grandma says, BYE, HANNAH.
Grandpa says, BYE, SWEETHEART.
Grandma says, I LOVE YOU.
Hannah says, LOVE YOU.
Hannah steps on top of an electrical box and jumps off.
[Clunking, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, OH! ELECTRICAL BOX. NAILED IT AGAIN, DAD.
Hannah runs on the sidewalk. She stops at a corner and looks both ways.
[Tense music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW TO SPRINT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT TO THE PET STORE AND TOY SHOP. UH OH. HERE'S THAT TRICKY CORNER. LEFT OR RIGHT? LEFT OR RIGHT?
Hannah turns left. She runs past a person walking on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, THAT'S THE WAY! GOOD MEMORY. NOW OUT OF THE WAY SLOWPOKE, HANNAH IS ON A MISSION.
Hannah skips on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, LOOK HOW PROUD SHE IS.
Hannah skips and twirls on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, SKIPPIN', SPINNIN', SKIPPIN', SPINNIN'. SKIP, SKIP, SKIP, SKIPITTY SKIP, AND A HOP-- LIKE... A BUNNY! COME ON, HANNAH. GIVE US ONE MORE SPIN WITH BUNNY.
Hannah walks onto a sidewalk beside a busy street.
[Engines humming]
Colin narrates, THERE WE GO.
Hannah drops Bunny.
Colin narrates, OH, NO. YOU DROPPED BUNNY.
Hannah runs back and picks up Bunny.
Colin narrates, OH, THANK GOODNESS THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE.
Hannah crosses a parking lot and looks at a store. She opens the door and walks past dog toys.
Subtitle: “Looks like this might be it.”
[Door squeaking]
Subtitle: “Are you looking for dog food?”
Hannah says, I MAY, I MIGHT LOOK FOR THE DOG FOOD LAST, ACTUALLY.
Colin narrates, LAST? WHAT ELSE ARE WE GETTING?
Hannah looks at birthday cards.
Colin narrates, OH, WHAT BINGO NEEDS IS A DOG BIRTHDAY CARD. SO THOUGHTFUL. EVEN THOUGH DOGS ARE TERRIBLE AT READING.
[Hannah humming]
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, OH, YOU DROPPED YOUR MONEY THERE SWEETHEART.
Hannah picks up her money.
Colin narrates, FIRST HER BUNNY, NOW HER MONEY. THIS ISN'T FUNNY. HEY. THAT RHYMED.
[Hannah sighing]
Hannah asks, DO YOU HAVE ANY DOG FOODS THAT HAVE TWO M'S AT THE END IN THE WORD?
The white-haired man says, THIS ONE'S CALLED FROMM WITH TWO M'S. IS THAT THE NAME OF IT? FROMM?
Hannah says, NO, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT ONE.
[Upbeat music plays]
The white-haired man says, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT ONE. DO YOU THINK YOUR DOG WILL LIKE, WILL LIKE STEAK?
Hannah says, NO, MY, MY DOG KIND OF LIKES CHEESE.
The white-haired man says, OH. THIS ONE, HAS CHICKEN AND CHEESE IN IT.
Hannah asks, IS THIS ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY?
The white-haired man says, OH, ABSOLUTELY. YEAH.
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, ALL RIGHT. AND WHO IS THE CARD FOR?
Hannah says, UM, MY DOG.
The white-haired man says, OH, THAT'S--
Hannah says, BECAUSE HER BIRTHDAY IS COMING UP.
The white-haired man says, IS IT? WHAT'S HER NAME?
Hannah says, AH, BINGO.
The white-haired man says, BINGO? IT'S 40 DOLLARS.
Hannah says, TWENTY?
The white-haired man says, TWENTY, YEP. AND THEN ONE MORE 20 IS GOING TO BE 40, RIGHT? LOOK AT YOU. I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME EXTRA TREATS FOR BINGO FOR HIS BIRTHDAY.
Hannah pays.
Hannah asks, YOU WANT ME TO PAY FOR THEM?
The white-haired man says, NO, IT'S A FREEBIE BECAUSE IT'S, IT'S BINGO'S BIRTHDAY.
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, OKAY. BYE BYE.
Hannah holds the door open and looks back inside.
Hannah says, IT'S NOT BINGO'S BIRTHDAY TODAY. IT'S SOON.
Colin narrates, DON'T TELL HIM THAT, HE MIGHT TAKE BACKTHE FREE TREATS. ALL RIGHT. GOT THE DOG FOOD. TIME TO GET A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR COUSIN MILA.
Hannah says, OKAY. TOY STORE.
Hannah looks around. She walks to the large toy store.
Colin narrates, AND THERE IT IS. THE TOY STORE. PLASTIC PARADISE. THEY'VE GOT STUFFIES, DOLLS, GLOWY THINGS, FLUFFY THINGS. THINGS THAT MAKE ENOUGH NOISE TO DRIVE YOUR PARENTS BANANAS. NOW TO FIND A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR MILA.
[Upbeat music plays]
A shopper says, HEY.
Hannah says, HEY.
Subtitle: “You know what? I’m looking for a toy for my daughter, and she’s about your age. What do you think she would get? Do you think she would like a big stuffy or something?”
Hannah says, FOLLOW ME.
Colin narrates, YEAH. FOLLOW HER. SHE'S THE EXPERT HERE.
Hannah says, I'M GONNA SAVE THIS ONE FOR MY COUSIN. BUT ALL OF THESE, THEY LOOK LIKE THIS. AND IF YOU GO ON THE INSIDE, YOU PULL OUT AND THEY LOOK LIKE A DIFFERENT STUFFY.
Subtitle: “Thank you for your help.”
Colin narrates, I DON'T KNOW WHAT ANY OF THAT MEANT, BUT I'M SOLD.
Hannah looks at art kits.
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, THESE ART KITS LOOK LIKE THE PERFECT WAY TO BLOW ALL YOUR TOOTH FAIRY MONEY.
An art kit falls on the floor. Hannah picks it up and puts it back on a peg.
[Thumping]
Colin narrates, UH OH. DON'T WORRY. JUST PUT IT BACK. NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW.
OKAY, SO IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S CHOSEN AN ART KIT FOR HERSELF. AND A TRANSFORMING RAINBOW STUFFY THING FOR COUSIN MILA. NOW TO PAY.
A cashier says, THAT ONE IS YOURS?
Hannah pays.
Colin narrates, WAIT A SECOND. WHERE'S BUNNY?
[Alarmed music plays]
Hannah picks Bunny up from the counter.
Colin narrates, OH. NEVER MIND. THERE'S BUNNY. YOU REALLY GOTTA STOP DOING THIS TO ME, HANNAH.
Hannah leaves the toy store carrying two bags and Bunny.
[Engines humming]
Colin narrates, AND WITH THEIR ARMS LOADED UP WITH EVERYTHING THEY NEEDED TO GET, IT'S TIME FOR HANNAH AND BUNNY TO HEAD BACK HOME.
On the sidewalk in front of their house, Sarah and Adam shade their eyes as they peer up the street.
[Sarah gasping, upbeat music plays]
Sarah says, HERE SHE COMES.
Sarah says, HI, HANNAH.
Hannah says, HI.
Hannah puts down her bags and hugs Sarah. Sarah and Adam hug and kiss Hannah.
Sarah says, HI. YOU DID IT!
In the interview, Sarah says, HANNAH DID GREAT.
Adam says, HANNAH, PROVED TO ME THAT SHE IS MORE CAPABLE THAN I POSSIBLY GAVE HER CREDIT FOR.
Outside, Hannah says, SO I COULDN'T FIND THE PET TREATS THAT YOU TOLD ME TO GOT.
Sarah asks, DID YOU EXPLAIN WHAT BINGO LIKES TO EAT?
Hannah says, YEAH. I SAID CHEESE.
Sarah says, YOU SAID CHEESE. THAT WAS A GOOD DECISION.
In the interview, Adam says, AND SHE DOES DESERVE MORE FREEDOM.
Adam says, GOOD JOB.
Hannah hugs Adam and Sarah.
Sarah says, OH.
In the interview, Sarah says, THIS EXPERIENCE GAVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THAT SHE'S CAPABLE OF BEING A BIG KID, JUST LIKE THE OTHER KIDS.
In the living room, Hannah sits on a couch with her older sister and teenage brother, who are watching her draw.
Hannah’s older sister says, THESE ARE SUPER COOL.
Hannah says, YEAH.
Hannah’s older sister says, IT'S A REALLY GOOD DRAWING TOO.
In the interview, Sarah says, SHE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THAT SHE GOT TO GO TO THE STORE BY HERSELF AND PICK SOMETHING OUT WITHOUT ANYONE TELLING HER WHAT SHE WAS ALLOWED TO BUY.
In the living room, Adam asks, DO YOU THINK YOU'D WANT TO GO ON ANOTHER ERRAND SOMETIME FOR US?
Hannah nods.
In the interview, Adam says, AND I THINK THAT WAS THE BEST PART, IS HOW EXCITED HANNAH GOT WHEN BINGO DEMOLISHED THE FOOD.
Hannah pours kibble into a dish, and it spills over the sides. Bingo runs to the dish and eats.
[Food rattling]
Sarah says, ATE THE FOOD?
Adam says, YEAH.
[Both chuckling]
Hannah says, BINGO. I WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE STORE. AND I GOT YOU DOG FOOD AND WENT BACK HOME.
In the interview, Adam says, THERE'S DEFINITELY ROOM FOR MORE FREEDOM. SHE'S ALREADY ASKED ME WHEN HER NEXT ERRAND WILL BE.
Hannah asks, CAN I GO WALK BY MYSELF, NOW?
Sarah says, SOMETIMES. MAYBE.
Hannah says, I CAN WALK BY MYSELF.

Colin narrates, AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT THIS KINDERGARTNER BELIEVES. MEET FOUR-YEAR-OLD ARYAN.
Aryan poses in a backyard. Text reads, “Age 4.”
In an interview, Aryan’s parents, Deepa and Abjijeet, sit in a kitchen. His mom, Deepa, has long, dark brown hair and wears a dark pink turtleneck sweater. His dad, Abhijeet, has short dark brown hair and an orange shirt.
Abhijeet says, ARYAN WANTS TO DO EACH AND EVERY THING THAT HIS PARENTS ARE DOING IN FRONT OF HIM. HE WANTS TO ORDER HIS OWN FOOD AT THE RESTAURANT. HE JUST WANTS TO BE LIKE AN ADULT.
In a kitchen, Aryan mops a shiny tile floor.
[Rustling]
In the interview, Deepa says, YEAH, HE SAYS, LIKE, "IF YOU CAN DO IT, WHY CAN'T I?"
At the table, Aryan holds a piece of wood.
Aryan asks, ISN'T THIS SEMICIRCLE?
Aryan’s older brother takes the piece of wood. He has short dark brown hair and wears a dark blue shirt.
Aryan’s older brother says, YEAH! EVEN WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, I WOULDN'T KNOW THIS IS A SEMICIRCLE. YOU CAN BE A SMART BROTHER.
Aryan’s older brother pats him on the head.
Colin narrates, THIS KID IS JUST ITCHING TO DO ALL THE COOL, GROWN-UP THINGS HIS PARENTS AND TEENAGE BROTHER GET TO DO.
At a keyboard beside a large window, Aryan sits between his parents. Deepa plays the keyboard.
[Keyboard notes playing, Aryan chatters]
Deepa says, OKAY?
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND MOM AND DAD AGREE, ARYAN IS READY FOR THE RESPONSIBILITIES THAT THEY HAD AS KIDS.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, BACK IN INDIA WHERE WE GREW UP, WE WERE TAUGHT TO BE INDEPENDENT. IN A FAMILY, YOU NEED TO BE INDEPENDENT, YOU NEED TO HELP EACH OTHER, YOU NEED TO HAVE EACH OTHER'S BACK.
Colin narrates, INDEPENDENCE IS A HUGE DEAL TO THIS FAMILY, SO MOM AND DAD ARE LOOKING FOR WAYS OF GIVING ARYAN WHAT HE CRAVES, AND AN ERRAND MIGHT JUST BE THE PERFECT FIRST STEP.
In the interview, Deepa says, ARYAN'S FAVOURITE PHRASE IS "ALL BY MYSELF."
At the keyboard, Deepa says, IT'S OKAY, I'M FINE.
Aryan says, LET ME DO IT ALL BY MYSELF.
Deepa says, YOU CAN DO IT BY YOURSELF.
[Aryan plays keyboard]
In the interview, Deepa says, SO LET'S SEE WHAT-- WHAT HE HAS IN STORE FOR US.
[Deepa and Abhijeet chuckling]
A flock of birds takes off from a barren treetop. At Aryan’s house, Deepa walks to her silver car. Inside the house, Abhijeet sits on a couch with his laptop computer balanced on his knee.
[Birds chirping, gentle music plays]
The crew hides cameras around the house. One crewmember snaps a clapperboard.
[Tapping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BUSY DAY AT ARYAN'S HOUSE, BECAUSE MOM HAS TO HEAD OUT TO HER OFFICE, AND DAD HAS A TON OF WORK TO DO. SO AFTER OUR CREW SECRETLY SETS UP SOME HIDDEN CAMERAS, DAD CALLS ARYAN TO THE KITCHEN TO ASK FOR HIS HELP.
[Upbeat music plays]
Abhijeet asks, CAN YOU SIT HERE FOR A BIT AND TALK TO ME? BECAUSE PAPA HAS A LOT OF WORK TO DO.
Aryan says, BUT I WANNA—
Abhijeet asks, BUT I NEED YOUR HELP. CAN YOU DO THAT FOR ME TODAY? BECAUSE THERE'S NO ONE IN THE HOUSE. CAN YOU HELP ME?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Abhijeet says, OKAY. YOU KNOW JIM UNCLE?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Abhijeet says, HE HAS BROKEN HIS ARM. YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, JIM IS THEIR NEIGHBOUR. THEY CALL HIM "JIM UNCLE" AS A CULTURAL SIGN OF RESPECT.
Abhijeet says, SO HE CANNOT RAKE THE LEAVES.
Abhijeet asks, CAN YOU HELP HIM DO THAT TODAY?
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, I DON'T KNOW IF ARYAN'S LISTENING OR DREAMING OF DOING
EXCITING GROWN-UP THINGS, LIKE FILING HIS TAXES, OR GROWING A COOL MOUSTACHE!
Abhijeet asks, AFTER RAKING LEAVES, CAN YOU GET SOME LUNCH FOR US? WE'LL ORDER SOMETHING FROM THE-- THE MEXICAN FOOD. HOW ABOUT THE BURRITOS AND SOME QUESADILLAS? YOU CAN PAY ALL BY YOURSELF.
Aryan says, WHAT?
Colin narrates in a whisper, YES.
Aryan says, I CAN PAY ALL BY MYSELF?
Colin narrates, LOOKS LIKE DAD JUST SAID THE MAGIC WORDS.
Abhijeet says, YOU LOVE THAT IDEA?
Aryan says, YEAH, I THINK SO.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from Aryan’s house to Jim Uncle’s front yard next door. Aryan walks around a corner, up a street, and crosses an intersection to a “Mexican Food” restaurant. A sign beside the intersection reads, “Busy intersection.” Graphics of bottles, burritos, and a quesadilla pop up over the restaurant.
[Leaves rustling, boinging, popping]
Colin narrates, FOR ARYAN'S FIRST ERRAND, HE'LL HEAD NEXT DOOR TO RAKE LEAVES FOR HIS INJURED NEIGHBOUR, JIM UNCLE.
ONCE HE'S DONE, HE'LL TAKE A SHORT STROLL DOWN THE STREET AND AROUND THE BLOCK UNTIL HE REACHES A BUSY INTERSECTION. CROSSING THAT WILL TAKE HIM TO THE FAMILY'S FAVOURITE MEXICAN RESTAURANT, WHERE HE'LL GET FOUR DRINKS FOR THE FAMILY, THREE BURRITOS, AND A CHICKEN QUESADILLA FOR HIMSELF. AND IT'LL ALL BE DONE ALL BY HIMSELF.
[Cheering]
On a sidewalk, Aryan drags a small rake behind him. He struggles as an empty leaf bag slides down from under his arm.
[Playful music plays]
Colin narrates, LET THE FIRST PART OF THE ERRAND BEGIN. GOT A NICE, WARM HAT. GOT A KID-SIZED RAKE. GOT EXTREMELY SLIPPERY LEAF BAGS. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? HE'S GOT THIS.
Aryan drops the bag and picks it up.
In the house, Abhijeet looks through a window.
Abhijeet says, I'M NOT VERY SCARED OR-- ABOUT THIS PART. BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW HE WILL DO WITH THE RESTAURANT THING, OF COURSE. I'M NOT SURE IF HE MIGHT REMEMBER THE FOOD THAT HE NEEDS TO ORDER, BRING IT BACK. HE'S NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE.
Aryan knocks on a door.
[Knocking]
Aryan says, JIM UNCLE?
Jim says, HOW ARE YOU?
Jim has short grey hair, wears a grey shirt, eyeglasses, and dark blue denim jeans, and has his left arm in a sling.
Aryan says, I THINK I HAVE TO RAKE THE LEAVES FOR YOU.
Aryan pulls leaves onto a driveway. He holds the rake with his left hand.
[Rake scraping, upbeat music plays]
Jim says, HOW ABOUT YOU PUT THE LEAVES IN, I'LL HOLD THE BAG?
Aryan says, OKAY.
Jim holds the leaf bag open, and Aryan puts the leaves in.
Colin narrates, LOOK AT ARYAN DOING THIS GROWN-UP TASK. WHAT A GREAT NEIGHBOUR.
Jim says, THERE YOU GO.
Subtitle: “I think I need to go one more time on the sidewalk.”
Aryan walks down Jim’s driveway and walks away on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, UH, WHERE'S HE GOING?
Jim asks, WHERE YOU GOING, BUDDY?
Aryan turns and waves at Jim. He keeps walking.
[Jim laughing]
Colin narrates, WELL, I GUESS HE'S DONE. YOU GO, ARYAN! THE JOB IS DONE WHEN YOU SAY IT'S DONE.
Jim says, HEY, BUDDY, COME ON BACK!
Colin narrates, SORRY, JIM UNCLE. GIVEN THE CHOICE BETWEEN RAKING LEAVES OR GOING TO PAY FOR LUNCH, ARYAN WILL ALWAYS CHOOSE PAYING FOR LUNCH.
Aryan turns the corner and walks up the sidewalk.
[Aryan humming, upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “It’s not far. I think I got this.”
A crossing guard helps Aryan cross the busy intersection.
Subtitle: “Walking sign means go.”
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, HE'S NEVER GONE TO THE MEXICAN RESTAURANT WITHOUT MOM AND DAD BEFORE. THIS IS A HUGE DEAL FOR ARYAN.
Aryan approaches the restaurant.
Colin narrates, NOW THE ONLY THING STANDING BETWEEN ARYAN AND DELICIOUSNESS...
Aryan pulls on the door handle and lets go.
[Banging]
Colin narrates IS THAT DOOR. THAT HEAVY, HEAVY DOOR.
Aryan says, I NEED TO COME IN.
The woman with the ponytail, who works at the restaurant, opens the door.
The restaurant worker says, YEAH? OKAY.
Aryan says, I WANT A QUESADILLA. AND FOUR-- FOUR DRINKS, AND-- AND FRIES.
The restaurant worker says, AND WHAT DID YOU SAY?
Aryan says, UM, QUESADILLA, FRIES...
The restaurant worker says, FRIES? UH-HUH.
Aryan says, AND...THAT'S ALL I WANT.
Colin narrates, SO HE FORGOT THE BURRITOS, BUT HE ADDED SOME FRIES. CLOSE ENOUGH.
[Food sizzling]
The restaurant worker asks, ANY GUACAMOLE? A BURRITO?
Aryan says, YEAH, BURRITOS. MY DAD SAID TWO.
Colin narrates, NICE! HE REMEMBERED THE BURRITOS.
The restaurant worker says, THE BURRITOS. HE LIKES RICE?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, YEAH? EVERYTHING I GIVE IT TO YOU, YOU BRING HOME?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker asks, AND HOW WILL YOU CARRY THAT? BECAUSE IT'S HEAVY, HUH?
Aryan says, BUT MY DAD SAID I CAN DO IT.
[Playful music plays]
The restaurant worker says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, OKAY. SO NOW HE'S GETTING TWO BURRITOS, FRIES, FOUR DRINKS, A QUESADILLA, AND RICE. IT'S NOT EXACTLY DAD'S ORDER, BUT IT'S ENOUGH TO FEED FOUR PEOPLE.
The restaurant worker makes the food.
[Upbeat music plays]
The restaurant worker says, ALL RIGHT, FOOD IS READY!
Subtitle: “Tell me how much dollars you want?”
Colin narrates, THIS IS YOUR BIG MOMENT, ARYAN.
The restaurant worker says, THIS ONE IS THE BILL. 68.
Aryan says, I THINK I GOT HOW MANY YOU WANT.
Aryan gives the restaurant worker all of his money.
The restaurant worker says, OKAY. I'M GIVING IT TO YOU SOME CHANGE.
Colin narrates, HE DID IT! HE PAID ALL BY HIMSELF! ARYAN, I HOPE THAT WAS EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS DREAMED OF.
The restaurant worker says, LOOK, I GOT ALL THE FOOD FOR YOU.
Aryan says, WOW! I THINK I CAN CARRY IT.
Aryan picks up a bag. A second restaurant worker puts two more bags on the table in front of Ayran.
Colin narrates, NOT SO FAST, ARYAN. THERE'S MORE.
Aryan says, I CAN'T CARRY ALL OF IT.
The restaurant worker says, AH, YOU CAN. COME ON.
Aryan says, NOT CHILDREN. ONLY GROWN-UPS CAN DO THAT. AND I'M NOT A GROWN-UP YET. I HAVE TO BE OLDER.
The restaurant worker asks, DO YOU WANNA GO HOME, COMING BACK AND COMING BACK? NO.
Colin narrates, YEAH, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A HORRIBLE IDEA.
Aryan says, I'LL GO, COME BACK, GO, COME BACK.
Colin narrates, WHAT DO I KNOW? THREE TRIPS IT IS.
Aryan leaves the restaurant and carries the bag to the intersection.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan says, AGAIN I NEED TO GO.
The crossing guard says, LET'S GO.
Aryan says, I WILL COME BACK AGAIN.

Abhijeet asks, WHAT DID YOU GET, BY THE WAY? WHAT IS IT?
Aryan says, THERE'S TWO MORE TO GO. TWO MORE.
Abhijeet says, OKAY. DID YOU PAY MONEY? ARYAN?
Colin narrates, NO TIME FOR CHIT-CHAT, DAD. HE'S GOT TO GET THAT FOOD
HOME BEFORE IT GETS COLD.
Aryan runs up the street.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan says, I NEED TO GO BACK, AND THEN I GO BACK ONE MORE TIME.
Abhijeet watches and laughs. Aryan turns the corner and takes off his hat.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, THE BEST THING ABOUT BEING ON YOUR OWN IS YOU CAN JUST TAKE OFF YOUR ITCHY HAT, AND THERE'S NO ONE TO TELL YOU TO PUT IT BACK ON.
The crossing guard says, YOU'RE BACK AGAIN.
Aryan says, YEAH.
Aryan crosses with the crossing guard. He walks to the restaurant and pulls on the door.
Colin narrates, OH, GREAT. IT'S THAT ANNOYINGLY HEAVY DOOR AGAIN.
[Door banging]
The restaurant worker opens the door.
The restaurant worker says, THERE YOU GO. WOW. LOOK. YOU COMING BACK. YOU FAST, MAN. COME-- WAIT.
Aryan drops his hat on the ground and enters the restaurant. The restaurant worker picks it up and puts it on his head.
Colin narrates, OH! THE HAT! THANKS, RESTAURANT LADY.
Aryan takes one of the bags.
The restaurant worker says, WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?
Aryan says, I THINK I'LL CARRY IT AFTER I GO BACK.
Aryan slings the bag over his shoulder, pushes the door open, and leaves the restaurant.
Colin narrates, TO BE HONEST, I THINK ARYAN JUST WANTS THIS ERRAND TO LAST FOREVER.
The crossing guard says, SO ONE MORE TRIP?
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan’s glove falls on the road.
[Whooshing]
Aryan says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, UH-OH. ARYAN! YOU DROPPED YOUR GLOVE! OH, WELL. SO HE DROPPED HIS HAT AND HIS GLOVE. AT LEAST HE HASN'T DROPPED ANY FOOD.

On the sidewalk, Abhijeet says, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB. VERY GOOD! DID YOU GET EVERYTHING NOW?
Abhijeet takes the bag from Aryan.
[Bag rustling]
Aryan says, NO.
Abhijeet asks, ARE YOU ALL GOOD?
Aryan says, NO. ONE MORE. I'LL DO ONE MORE TIME.
Abhijeet says, ALL RIGHT.
Aryan says, BYE-BYE!
Aryan runs down the sidewalk away from his dad. Abhijeet waves.
[Playful music plays]
Colin narrates, THE FOOD IS PROBABLY COLD BY NOW. BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER TO ARYAN, BECAUSE THIS IS HIS BEST DAY EVER.
Aryan walks past a bus shelter and waves at the people waiting inside.
Colin narrates, I DON'T THINK ARYAN ACTUALLY KNOWS THOSE PEOPLE AT THE BUS STOP.
Aryan arrives at the intersection.
[Engines humming]
Subtitle: “I’m ready to cross it one more time.”
The crossing guard says, WAIT. OKAY, LET'S GO.

Aryan pulls on the restaurant door.
[Aryan grunting]
The restaurant worker opens the door.
She says, OH, IT'S TOO HEAVY. AGAIN, BUDDY?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, BUT YOU FORGOT SOMETHING.
[Background beeping]
Aryan asks, WHAT?
The restaurant worker says, WHAT ABOUT THE DRINK?
Aryn picks up the last bag, and the restaurant worker brings another bag to Aryan.
Aryan says, AHH!
The restaurant worker says, AH-HA!
Colin narrates, OH, NO. DON'T TELL ME HE'S GOT TWO MORE TRIPS? OH, PHEW. THE RESTAURANT LADY SHOWED HIM THE OLD HANDLES-IN-THE-BAG TRICK.
[Upbeat music plays]
Aryan walks with a bag hanging from each wrist.
The restaurant worker asks, GOOD?
Aryan says, YEAH.
The restaurant worker says, OKAY. THANK YOU. YOU COMING BACK OR NO?
Aryan says, NO.
The restaurant worker pushes the door open for Aryan.
[Engines humming]
The restaurant worker says, OH, OKAY. OKAY.
Aryan says, I THINK I WON'T COME BACK AGAIN.
The restaurant worker says, OH, OKAY. THAT'S GOOD.
Aryan crosses the intersection with the crossing guard.
[Upbeat music plays]
The crossing guard says, HAVE A NICE DAY.
Aryan says, OKAY.
Subtitle: “I’m pretty sure I won’t come back.”
Colin narrates, HE DID IT! ALL THE ERRANDS COMPLETE, AND JUST IN TIME, BECAUSE MOM JUST GOT BACK FROM THE OFFICE.
Deepa and Abhijeet wait in front of their house.

[Both laughing]
Abhijeet says, OH, MY GOD. TWO BAGS, HUH?
Aryan walks slowly, holding the two bags.

Deepa agrees, SUPER PROUD.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, AND HE-- HE JUST SLAMMED IT, I GUESS.
[Deepa chuckling]
Deepa says, YEAH.
Inside the house, Aryan, his older brother, and his parents sit at the table. Abhijeet opens a container of rice.
Abhijeet says, AHH... WHAT IS THIS?
Deepa says, WOW.
Aryan says, IT'S WHAT YOU SAID. IT'S SPICY RICE.
Abhijeet says, SPICY RICE FOR WHOM?
Aryan says, FOR YOU AND MOMMY.
Abhijeet says, OH, OKAY.
In the interview, Deepa says, IT WAS SO FUNNY WHEN YOU ASKED HIM, "WHAT IS THIS?" AND HE'S LIKE, "IT'S WHAT YOU SAID."
Abhijeet says, YEAH, EXACTLY, RIGHT?
Deepa says, OKAY, HE GOT WHAT HE ASKED FOR.
Abhijeet says, IT WAS ALL WRONG.
[Laughing]
Aryan says, AND THIS ONE IS FOR YOU, MOMMY.
Deepa says, THANK YOU, ARYAN.
In the interview, Abhijeet says, CONSIDERING ARYAN IS DOING THAT, I THINK THAT MEAL WAS THE TASTIEST FOOD THAT I EVER HAD AS A PARENT.

At the table, Aryan’s older brother says, BECAUSE ARYAN DID IT BY HIMSELF.
Deepa says, WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.
Deepa high-fives Aryan.

Aryan’s older brother says, GOOD JOB, ARYAN.
Aryan says, I COULD DO IT EVERY DAY.
Abhijeet says, YOU CAN DO IT EVERY DAY. EXACTLY.
[Deepa chuckling]
In the interview, Deepa says, HE WAS REALLY AMAZING TODAY, SO THAT KIND OF REALLY MOVED US.
Abhijeet says, AFTER THE ERRANDS, I THINK I'M GONNA LOOK AT ARYAN MORE OF A GROWN-UP RATHER THAN AS A FOUR-YEAR-OLD KID.
Deepa says, I AGREE.
At the table, Aryan says, I LOVE MY DAD AND MY MOM AND MY BROTHER.

[Playful music plays]
A school bus stops by a sidewalk. Inside a two-storey red brick house, The curly-haired children play basketball.
Colin narrates, IN SNOW-CAPPED SOUTHERN ONTARIO, WHERE REGULAR LIFE MOTORS ON, LIVE A COUPLE OF SIBLINGS JUST HAVING A BALL.
[Both children giggling]
Colin narrates, PRESENTING A SPECTACULAR SISTER-BROTHER COMBO: SIX-YEAR-OLD BROOKLYN AND FOUR-YEAR-OLD LINCOLN.
The curly-haired children shove each other on a child-sized chiar. Text beside the girl, Brooklyn, reads, “Age 6.” Text beside the boy, Lincoln, reads, “Age 4.”
[Giggling]
Colin narrates, NOW, IF IT SEEMS LIKE THESE TWO CAN LIGHT UP A ROOM, THEY CERTAINLY CAN.
Brooklyn and Lincoln kneel by a toy cabinet. They build a tall structure out of plastic squares.
Lincoln says, I'M MAKING THE CASTLE.
Colin narrates, BUT THEY CAN ALSO MESS IT UP.
The castle falls apart. Lincoln dumps bins of toys on the floor.
[Clattering, exclaiming]
Brooklyn says, THAT'S A BIG MESS, LINCOLN.
Colin narrates, WHICH IS GREAT WHEN YOU HAVE A MICROMANAGING MOM WHO WILL ALWAYS STEP IN AND DO EVERYTHING FOR YOU.
The blonde-haired woman, their mom, picks up the toys.
In an interview, their mom, Susanna, sits beside their dad, Chris, in a kitchen. Chris has short black hair, a black beard, and a black moustache. He wears a grey suit and a white shirt.
Chris says, SUSANNA IS A HELICOPTER PARENT. SUSANNA IS THERE...
[Imitating helicopter]
[Susanna laughing, upbeat music plays]
Susanna says, I BELIEVE THE KIDS HAVE GROWN TO RELY ON ME. THEY PROBABLY ARE MORE ABLE TO DO CERTAIN THINGS, BUT I DON'T ALLOW IT.
Colin narrates, AND THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM BEGINS.
In the house, Brooklyn and Lincoln play basketball.
[Banging]
Chris says, OKAY, ARRÊT!
[Children giggling]
Colin narrates, DAD IS READY TO SEE WHAT BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN CAN DO ON THEIR OWN. MOM, ON THE OTHER HAND...
In the interview, Susanna says, AS A CONTROL FREAK MOM, IT'S CHALLENGING FOR ME TO ALLOW THEM TO GO INTO THE COMMUNITY FOR THE FIRST TIME WITHOUT US BEING THERE.
Chris says, BROOKLYN MAY BE HESITANT TO GO AND RUN AN ERRAND BY HERSELF. LINCOLN, HE MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT MORE BOLD AND WANNA TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE. I'M NOT SURE HOW THEY'RE MANAGE, BUT THIS IS GONNA BE INTERESTING.
[Susanna laughing]
A light dusting of snow covers houses and cars. Inside Brooklyn and Lincoln’s house, a crew hides cameras. A crewmember snaps a clapperboard in front of a camera.
[Upbeat music plays, tapping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A WINTRY EARLY MORNING AT BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN'S HOUSE, WHERE THE OLD ENOUGH! CREW IS SETTING UP HIDDEN CAMERAS
TO FOLLOW THE SIBLINGS OUT ON THEIR VERY FIRST ERRAND.
SEE, DAD HAS A SPECIAL DINNER PLANNED FOR TONIGHT, AND HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO PICK UP ALL THE INGREDIENTS.
Susanna, Brooklyn, and Lincoln enter the kitchen.
In the interview, Chris says, I'M GONNA BE MAKING A GUYANESE DISH TONIGHT TO SHOW THEM AND TEACH THEM SOME OF THE TRADITIONS THAT I WAS RAISED UPON.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, TO TOP IT OFF, MOM ALSO GOT A CALL FROM THEIR NEIGHBOUR, LOOKING FOR SOME EXTRA WINTER CLOTHES. SO IT'S TIME TO PUT AWAY HER MICROMANAGING WAYS AND LET BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN FINALLY HELP HER OUT.
In the kitchen, Brooklyn and Lincoln eat at the table. Susanna sits down.
Susanna says, I KNOW WE HAD SOME EXTRA COATS FOR YOU. REMEMBER, WE WERE PUTTING SOME STUFF IN A BAG FOR JACK?
Brooklyn says, YEAH.
Susanna says, SO JOANNA ASKED IF IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF WE COULD BRING THE BAG OVER TO HER HOUSE. SO DO YOU THINK IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF THE TWO OF YOU GO TOGETHER?
Brooklyn asks, HOW?
Lincoln says, with his mouth full, BY OURSELVES?
Susanna says, YEAH. DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GO BY YOURSELF?
Both children say, YEAH.
Susanna says, YOU DO? OKAY.
Colin narrates, NOW, THAT'S THE LOOK OF A COUPLE OF KIDS READY TO DO SOMETHING ON THEIR OWN!
Susanna says, AFTER THAT, DADDY NEEDS SOME GROCERIES. HE'S GONNA MAKE US SOME FOOD LATER TODAY. SO I NEED TO GO TO THE GIRL'S HOUSE THAT WORKS WITH ME DOWN THE STREET. DO YOU THINK YOU'RE ABLE TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE FOR ME?
Brooklyn says, YEAH, WE COULD.
Susanna says, OH, GOOD.
On an animated map, a dotted line following two small animated figures shows a path from home to Jack’s house. A graphic of coats pops up over the house.
[Rustling, upbeat music plays, popping]
Colin narrates, OOH, NOT JUST ONE ERRAND, BUT TWO! TO HELP MOM AND DAD, BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN WILL CARRY A BAG THAT WEIGHS ALMOST AS MUCH AS THEY DO THROUGH THE NEIGHBOURHOOD TO DELIVER WINTER COATS TO THEIR BEST FRIEND, JACK.
[Car horn honking]
On an animated map, a dotted line follows the car moving down the street. The car stops in front of a house, and the two animated figures leave and walk to a "Market." A sign reads, “Busy intersection.” Graphics of the ingredients appear above the Market. The animated figures return to the car.
[Tires screeching, boinging, upbeat music continues, popping]
Colin narrates, THEN MOM WILL PICK UP THE KIDS AND DRIVE THEM ACROSS TOWN TO WHERE SHE HAS A BUSINESS MEETING. WHILE SHE'S THERE, BROOKLYN AND LINCOLN WILL WALK A FEW BLOCKS, CROSSING A BUSY INTERSECTION TO GET TO DAD'S FAVOURITE AFRICAN MARKET, WHERE THEY'LL BUY OKRA, A BAG OF RICE, ONIONS, THREE YAMS, SALTFISH, AND FOUR PLANTAINS BEFORE RETURNING TO MEET MOM WHERE SHE DROPPED THEM OFF.
In the interview, Chris says, THE BEST PART OF ALL HAPPEN TO BE THE PLANTAINS, AND WE GET TO FRY THIS UP KIND OF THING. YOU HAVE IT, IT'S LIKE A SIDE DISH WITH THE WHOLE MEAL, AND I JUST CAN'T WAIT.
Brooklyn and Lincoln leave the house. Lincoln carries a large black garbage bag.
[Energetic music plays]
They both say, BYE, MOMMY.
Susanna says, GOOD JOB, GUYS.
Brooklyn walks in front of Lincoln.
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN, I NEED A LITTLE HELP.
They both shout, BYE.
In the doorway, Susanna says, OH! I'M, LIKE, READY TO CRY. VERY NERVOUS. VERY NERVOUS. I THINK THEY'LL BE OKAY. BUT I'M NERVOUS.
Brooklyn and Lincoln walk up the middle of the road. Susanna shuts the door of the house and wipes her eyes.
[Door banging]
Brooklyn carries the bag on the street.
Colin narrates, DON'T WORRY, MOM. YOUR KIDS WILL BE JUST FINE ON THEIR OWN.
Subtitle: “I miss mommy.”
Brooklyn looks at Lincoln.
Colin says, OKAY, SPOKE TOO SOON. MAYBE DAD WAS WRONG ABOUT LINCOLN BEING BOLD AND TAKING ON THIS CHALLENGE.
Brooklyn says, LINCOLN! HOLD-- HOLD THIS.
Brooklyn gives Lincoln the bag.
[Bag rustling]
Colin narrates, THAT'S IT, BROOKLYN! DISTRACT LINCOLN FROM BEING HOMESICK BY MAKING HIM CARRY THE BAG.
Brooklyn says, GOOD JOB, LINCOLN. LOOK BOTH WAYS... GOOD. OKAY, YOU HAVE TO JUST MAKE IT ACROSS, OKAY? AND LEAVE IT TO ME.
They cross a street.
Colin narrates, WHAT A GOOD BIG SISTER.
[Upbeat music plays]
Brooklyn asks, WANT ME TO HOLD IT NOW?
Brooklyn takes the bag.
Brooklyn says, THERE WE GO. THE HOUSE IS RIGHT THERE.
Lincoln takes the bag.

Brooklyn says, FREEDOM!
Colin narrates, NOW TO FIND THEIR MOM AND GET DAD'S GROCERIES.
Brooklyn says, WE'RE WAITING HERE.

Colin narrates, AND THERE SHE IS!
Lincoln and Brooklyn run down a sidewalk towards the car.
Brooklyn says, WE HAVE TO WALK ACROSS THE ROAD.
Lincoln says, WE HAVE TO GO A LITTLE BIT ACROSS.
Brooklyn says, WE HAVE TO WALK ACROSS THE ROAD, BRO.
[Car door clicks open]
Susanna asks, DID YOU DO IT?
Lincoln says, YEAH.

Susanna says, OKAY, LINCOLN. OKAY, BUBBA. LISTEN. YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB, OKAY? THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT. LOOK, IT'S THE FIRST TIME YOU DID IT BY YOURSELF. YOU ACTUALLY LEFT ME ALL BY YOURSELF.
Brooklyn says happily, YEAH, WE'RE DOING IT AGAIN!
Susanna says, YEAH.
Susanna drives the car.
[Engine humming]
Colin narrates, AT LEAST BROOKLYN SEEMS HAPPY. MAYBE THAT HUG AND PEP TALK FROM MOM IS ALL LINCOLN NEEDED TO KEEP GOING.
Lincoln says, BROOKLYN?
Brooklyn says, YEAH?
Lincoln suggests, IF YOU KEEP TALKING WHILE WE'RE WALKING, IT WILL KIND OF MAKE ME FEEL A LITTLE BIT HAPPIER.
Brooklyn says, OR FORGET MOM AND HAVE YOUR BIG SISTER BE YOUR SUPPORT.

Sitting in the car, Susanna says, I'M SAD THAT MY SON'S SAD. I'M NERVOUS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I JUST WANNA HELP. MY KIDS ARE GROWING UP, SO IT'S GOOD.
She says, tearfully, BUT, ANYWAY...
Susanna wipes her eyes. On the sidewalk, Brooklyn and Lincoln walk together.
[Upbeat music plays]

Brooklyn says, WHAT WAS THE LIST AGAIN? SO, UM, ONION. RICE BAG. UM, BANANA CHIPS?

Lincoln says, SALTFISH. WE NEED SALTFISH. WE JUST CAN ASK THE MAN.
Both children ask, DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE SALTFISH IS?
The store employee says, RIGHT IN THIS FREEZER RIGHT HERE.

[Lincoln groaning]
Colin narrates, IS IT JUST ME, OR IS THIS THE HEAVIEST ERRAND EVER? AND, UH, DAD, NEXT TIME YOU WANNA MAKE A SPECIAL DINNER, MAYBE TRY SOMETHING WITH FEWER INGREDIENTS!

The brown-haired woman asks, DO YOU THINK THAT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO DO THE ERRAND FOR ME?
The blonde-haired girl asks, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
At a pet food store, a white-haired man lifts a bag of dog food off a shelf.
The blonde-haired girl says, NO, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT ONE.

[Upbeat music plays, engines humming]
In a living room, the black-haired boy puts a toy car on a race track with a loop.
[Thunking]
The black-haired boy says, YES, THAT WAS IT.
The black-haired woman says, SKY, YOU'VE BEEN PLAYING WITH THAT FOR THREE HOURS. DO YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING ELSE?
The black-haired boy, Sky, says, NO.
Outside, Sky jumps off a rock. Text reads, “Age 4.” Luna turns a steering wheel in a play structure. Text reads, “Age 3.”
[Whooshing]
Colin narrates, JUST LIKE LASER-FOCUSED 4-YEAR-OLD SKY AND HIS FEISTY 3-YEAR-OLD SISTER LUNA.
[Luna screaming]
Colin narrates, WHILE MOM AND DAD APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THESE RASCALS GET UP TO, THEY'RE MORE CONCERNED WITH TEACHING SKY AND LUNA ALL THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO GROW UP.
Sky and Luna sit at a table and write in workbooks. The black-haired woman, Sky and Luna’s mom, crouches beside Sky.
Sky and Luna’s mom says, SO WE'RE GOING TO ERASE THE S, RIGHT?
In an interview, Sky and Luna’s parents sit together. Their mom, Emily, wears a white hooded sweater with black polka dots, and black-framed eyeglasses. Their dad, Jeffrey, wears a black jacket. He has thick black hair and a moustache.
Jeffrey says, I SEE MYSELF AS A VERY STRICT PARENT. I REALLY LIKE TO ENFORCE DISCIPLINE BECAUSE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER I WAS REALLY BAD AT FOCUSING. IT WASN'T A GOOD FEELING.
At the table, Emily says, OKAY, LUNA, THAT'S REALLY GOOD. YEAH, KEEP GOING.
In the interview, Emily says, I THINK MY PARENTS WERE A BIT MORE PROTECTIVE OF ME.
At the table, Emily asks Sky, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS WORD IS? CAN.
In the interview, Emily says, SO A LOT OF TIMES, I WAS ALWAYS RELYING ON MY PARENTS TO DO CERTAIN THINGS. AND SO I WANT MY KIDS TO LEARN TO DO THINGS EVEN SIMPLE TASKS AS LIKE DOING LAUNDRY OR LIKE, YOU KNOW, JUST HELPING ME PUT AWAY THE DISHES, THINGS LIKE THAT.
At the table, Emily asks, YEAH, CAN YOU HOLD ONTO YOUR PENCIL? WHERE DOES YOUR FINGER GO? THERE WE GO.
At the table, Luna positions her fingers on her pencil. Outside, Jeffrey carries Luna as he chases Sky across a field.
[Background chatter]
Colin narrates, SO FAR, MOM AND DAD HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB TEACHING SKY AND LUNA INDEPENDENCE. BUT NOW THEY'RE READY TO SEE WHAT THE KIDS CAN DO IN THE REAL WORLD.
In the interview, Emily says, I WANT TO SEE HOW FAR THEY CAN GO WITHOUT MY HELP. I THINK SKY WILL PROBABLY TAKE CHARGE, BUT YEAH, LUNA IS KIND OF LIKE A WILD CARD HERE, SO I'M NOT 100 PERCENT SURE WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH HER, BUT I MEAN WE'LL SEE.
Pink morning light falls on tall trees, buildings, and houses in a residential neighbourhood.
[Gentle music plays]
[Birds chirping]
Colin narrates, IT'S A COOL FALL MORNING.
SO TONIGHT, MOM IS PLANNING ON MAKING THE FAMILY'S TRADITIONAL HOT POT. A SOUP THEY LOVE TO EAT WHEN THE WEATHER GETS COLD. SHE ALSO NEEDS TO REGISTER THE KIDS FOR SKATING LESSONS, SO IT'S THE PERFECT DAY TO PUT EVERYTHING THEY'VE TAUGHT SKY AND LUNA TO THE TEST.
Emily says, SKY AND LUNA, I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY.
Sky sits behind Luna on the couch.
Subtitle: “I don’t want to help you.”
Emily repeats, YOU DON'T WANT TO HELP ME?
Colin narrates, WELL, THIS ISN'T STARTING OUT THE WAY MOM HOPED.
Subtitle: “Well I’m going to help you.”
Emily asks, PLEASE, CAN YOU GUYS HELP ME? COME HERE. SO I NEED TO BUY SOME INGREDIENTS FOR, LIKE, OUR HOT POT, RIGHT? BUT I NEED TO REGISTER YOU GUYS FOR SKATING. SO THAT MEANS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE TO GO TO THE SUPERMARKET FOR ME. SO I'M GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO BUY.
OKAY. ARE YOU GOING TO REMEMBER? WE NEED LETTUCE. SO [SPEAKS CANTONESE] LETTUCE. OKAY?
Subtitle: “Yeah, lettuce are my yummy.”
[Toy squeaking]
Emily says, THEY ARE YUMMY.
Subtitle: “I go buy that one and purple ice cream.”
Emily says, OH, PURPLE ICE CREAM. OKAY, WE CAN GET THE PURPLE ICE CREAM.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, I CAN'T IMAGINE PURPLE ICE CREAM GOING INTO HOT POT. BUT IF IT GETS SKY AND LUNA TO HELP, THEN, HEY. WHY NOT?
Emily says, SO CAN WE GO? OKAY. GO. ARE YOU GUYS READY?
Emily backs her car out of her driveway.
Colin narrates, OFF THEY GO ON A QUICK CAR RIDE ACROSS TOWN TO THE LOCAL ARENA.
SO WHILE MOM WILL BE REGISTERING THEM FOR SKATING, THE KIDS CAN WALK A SHORT BLOCK TO THE ASIAN GROCERY STORE TO FIND ALL THE INGREDIENTS THEY'LL NEED FOR TONIGHT'S DELICIOUS HOT POT SOUP.
An animated map shows the inside of the grocery store. A dotted line follows two small animated figures as they walk through the aisles, and graphics of food pop up as they shop.
[Popping]
Colin narrates, ONCE INSIDE, SKY AND LUNA WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE THE UNENDING AISLES TO LOCATE THE PRODUCE SECTION SO THEY CAN PICK UP A LARGE HEAD OF LETTUCE AND A BLOCK OF TOFU. FROM THERE, THEY'LL LOOK FOR THE MEAT COOLER TO GET SOME SLICED BEEF, AND THEN FIND THE PROPER AISLE FOR A PACKAGE OF MUSHROOM SOUP BASE.
ONCE THEY HAVE ALL OF THAT, THEY'LL HEAD OVER TO THE OTHER END OF THE STORE TO GET SKY'S FAVOURITE PURPLE ICE CREAM FOR DESSERT.
[Cheering]
Emily parks the car.
Inside the car, a child sings, WHOAAA-WA-WA!
Subtitle: “I’m so scared.”
Emily lifts Luna out of the car and crouches in front of her.
Emily says, YOU'RE SO SCARED. WHY ARE YOU SCARED?
Subtitle: “I don’t want to go to the supermarket.”
Emily says, OH, BUT WHY NOT? GO-GO WILL BE WITH YOU.
Subtitle: “Yeah, I like Go-Go.”
Emily says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE. BUT AS LONG AS LUNA HAS HER BIG BROTHER SKY, AKA GO-GO, WITH HER LOOKS LIKE SHE'LL BE JUST FINE.
Sky and Luna hold hands. They each hold an empty, bright green reusable shopping bag.
Emily says, READY? YOU'RE GOING TO HOLD HANDS? OKAY, GO. GOOD JOB. OH, WHAT?
[Luna cries]
Emily says, OH.
[Luna cries]
Luna walks back to Emily, and they hold hands.
Emily asks, DO YOU WANT ME TO WALK WITH YOU TO THE SUPERMARKET? OKAY, I'LL WALK WITH YOU FIRST. OKAY.
Luna says, YEAH.
Emily asks, ARE YOU GOING TO BE OKAY? YEAH, YOU'RE GOING TO BE OKAY. WE'RE GOING TO TURN THIS WAY.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. MUM'S GOT THIS UNDER CONTROL, AND I THINK LUNA'S BACK ON BOARD.
Emily stops outside the supermarket. Sky takes Luna’s hand, and they walk to the entrance.
Emily says, GO. YEAH. MOMMY'S RIGHT HERE. YEAH. GO, GO, GO.
[Luna whines]
Sky says, COME ON.
[Happy music plays]
Luna says, OH.
Luna stops walking and looks back at Emily.
[Cries]
Colin narrates, OH NO.
[Music stops]
Sky says, YOU'LL BE RIGHT THERE SAFE.
Emily says, GO-GO IS GOING TO BE RIGHT WITH YOU.
Sky says, YOU STAY THERE ALL DAY.
Emily says, OKAY, I'LL STAY THERE. OKAY. YEAH.
Sky says, YOU STAY THERE ALL DAY.
[Luna cries]
Luna says, I DON'T WANT YOU TO STAY HERE.
Sky says, OH, OKAY. GO-GO, YOU GO THEN. GO, GO, GO. SKY GO. OKAY. THANK YOU, SKY.
Sky walks into the supermarket by himself. He pushes a child-sized grocery cart and walks in the produce section.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, WELL, LUNA TRIED HER BEST, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE SKY IS FLYING SOLO ON THIS ONE. WHICH MEANS IT'S UP TO HIM TO REMEMBER MOM'S LIST OF GROCERIES. SKY, YOU'RE IN THE FRUIT AND VEGGIE SECTION. "ROMAINE" CALM. "LETTUCE" HELP YOU.
Sky puts lettuce in the cart.
Colin narrates, I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CREDIT, BUT I THINK MY LITTLE PUN SORT OF HELPED HIM OUT A BIT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, TOFU, CHECK! OH, THERE'S THE BEEF. STRETCH, SKY. STRETCH! USE THOSE LITTLE ARMS OF YOURS.
A shopper asks, DID YOU NEED HELP REACHING SOMETHING?
Sky says, NO.
Subtitle: “My mom said I go to Bestco by myself.”
The shopper says, OH, WOW, YOU'RE SHOPPING ALL BY YOURSELF?
Colin narrates, SORRY, LADY. NO TIME TO CHAT. SKY'S ON A MISSION.
Sky looks down the aisles.
Colin narrates, HMM. I THINK SKY MIGHT NEED SOME HELP.
A woman with long, straight black hair asks, DO YOU NEED HELP?
Colin narrates, CALLED IT!
Sky says, I NEED PURPLE ICE CREAM.
The straight-haired woman repeats, ICE CREAM?
Sky says, YEAH. PURPLE.
The straight-haired woman says, ICE CREAM IS ON THE FREEZER SIDE.
Sky says, OH.
The straight-haired woman says, LET'S GO!
Sky asks, THIS WAY?
The straight-haired woman says, NO, THE OTHER, OTHER, THE OTHER END. IS IT WHAT YOU WANT?
Sky says, YEAH, THAT ONE.
The straight-haired woman says, OKAY. CAN YOU GET IT?
The straight-haired woman says, GOOD BOY.
Colin narrates, SKY WANTED PURPLE ICE CREAM, AND SKY GOT PURPLE ICE CREAM. THIS LADY'S A SUCH A BIG HELP. YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST LET HER TAG ALONG.
Sky points at orange juice containers.
Sky asks, WHAT ARE THIS?
The straight-haired woman says, IT'S JUICE. DO YOU WANT JUICE?
Subtitle: “Yeah, for my sister.”
Colin narrates, O.J.'S NOT ON THE LIST. BUT SKY'S BEING A GOOD BIG BROTHER, SO WE'LL LET IT SLIDE.

Sky says, YEAH.
Sky steers his cart to the butcher counter.
Subtitle: “I need one of these.”
The straight-haired woman says, HUN? YOU WANT THAT? THIS IS ALL BEEF. THE WHOLE, WHOLE, WHOLE BIG THING?
Subtitle: “I want one of that.”
Sky says, YEAH. I WANT ONE OF THAT.
Colin narrates, LOOK, I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING. MOM DIDN'T ASK FOR POT ROAST, BUT SHE DID ASK FOR BEEF, SO LET'S CUT THIS KID SOME SLACK.
The straight-haired woman asks, SO IS THAT ALL? ARE WE DONE?
She puts the pot roast in the cart.
Subtitle: “I want to go to pay.”
The straight-haired woman says, YEAH TO PAY IS OVER THERE. SEE THE CHECK OUT COUNTER?
Sky says, YEAH.
Sky puts his items on a conveyor belt at the check-out counter.
Colin narrates, LET'S SEE. SKY GOT BEEF. MORE BEEF. PURPLE ICE CREAM, LETTUCE, TOFU AND O.J. NOT QUITE EVERYTHING MOM WANTED, BUT NOT TOO BAD FOR A FOUR-YEAR-OLD.
Sky pays and gets his change. He pushes his cart outside. Emily smiles and waves.
[Cart rattling]
Emily says, WOW, THAT IS SO GOOD!
YOU HAVE-- PURPLE ICE CREAM. VERY GOOD. OKAY. WHAT IS THIS?
Emily holds up the pot roast.
[Emily laughing]
Subtitle: “It’s something meat.”
Emily says, OKAY.
[Emily laughing, engines humming]
Colin narrates, AH, YES. SOMETHING MEAT. A TRUE DELICACY AMONG 4-YEAR-OLDS TODAY.
Emily says, UH OH. ARE YOU MISSING ONE THING?
Sky says, THE "SOBE".
Emily says, THE SOUP. CAN YOU GO BACK AND GET IT FOR ME?
Sky says, OKAY. WAIT HERE.
Colin narrates, YEAH MOM. WAIT THERE.
Sky pushes his cart back to the supermarket. Emily holds up the pot roast.
[Upbeat music plays, cart rattling]
Emily asks, WHAT IS THIS?
Luna says, BEEF.
Emily says, BEEF? YEAH. BUT IT'S-- I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO COOK THIS.
Sky pushes his cart into the supermarket.
Colin narrates, OKAY. IF YOU WERE A SOUP BASE, WHERE WOULD YOU BE?
Sky picks up a large stuffed animal and puts it in the cart.
[Bag rustling]
Colin narrates, AND WE FOUND THE STUFFED ANIMALS INSTEAD. OKAY. JUST GONNA POP THAT IN HERE AND SLIDE QUIETLY PAST THE CASH. NOTHING TO SEE HERE.
Sky pushes his cart outside without paying.
[Colin singing, cart rattling]
Emily says, YAY, SKY!
Sky proudly picks up the stuffed animal.
Sky says, I GOT THIS!
[Emily laughing]
Emily asks, WHAT IS THIS? BUT, WHERE'S THE SOUP?
Sky says, SORRY, I'LL FIND IT.
Emily asks, DID YOU PAY FOR IT?
Sky says, NO.
[Emily chuckling]
Emily says, NO? OKAY. SO GO AND BRING IT BACK. AND THEN I NEED THE SOUP.
Sky says, YEAH, I'LL GET SOUP.
Sky pushes his cart back to the supermarket.
Emily says, HE BASICALLY STOLE THAT. HE JUST TOOK THAT FROM THE STORE.
[Emily laughing, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, I JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT OLD ENOUGH DOES NOT CONDONE SHOPLIFTING AT ANY TIME. NOW, BACK TO FINDING THAT SOUP BASE.
Sky walks past the soup base.
A boy with buzzed black hair asks, YOU NEED HELP?
Sky says, YEAH. I NEED A MUSHROOM SOUP.
The boy with buzzed hair says, SOUP?
Sky says, YEAH.
The boy with buzzed hair points and says, OVER HERE.

[Upbeat music plays]
Outside, Emily asks, YOU SEE GO-GO IS COMING? DO YOU SEE? DO YOU SEE GO-GO PUSHING THE CART? DO YOU THINK HE BOUGHT THE SOUP BASE?
Luna says, MM-HM.
Emily says, YEAH. YOU THINK SO?
Colin narrates, HE'S GOT THE SOUP BASE. HE PAID FOR A STUFFY. I'D SAY THINGS ARE LOOKING PRETTY GOOD FOR SKY.
Sky drops his change on the sidewalk.
[Coins clattering]
Colin narrates, OH, BOY.
Emily and Luna watch Sky trying to pick up the change.
[Emily laughing]
Colin narrates, WITH ALL THEIR GREAT LIFE LESSONS, YOU WOULD THINK THAT MOM AND DAD WOULD HAVE TAUGHT SKY ABOUT PICKING UP CHANGE WITH HIS GLOVES ON? NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
Emily shouts, DO YOU NEED HELP? YEAH, OKAY GO, GO HELP HIM. YEAH. GO.
Luna runs to Sky.
Colin narrates, LUNA TO THE RESCUE.
Sky says, IT'S OKAY. I'LL HELP YOU.
Colin narrates, NO, SHE'S STEALING THE CART INSTEAD. WHAT A RUTHLESS MOVE.
[Emily laughing harder]

OKAY, YOU HAVE TO GO BACK AND HELP GO-GO WITH THE, WITH THE, WITH THE THING HE'S TRYING TO PICK UP, OKAY?
Luna runs back to Sky.
[Panting]
Luna asks, YOU KNOW HOW TO PICK IT UP, RIGHT?
Luna picks up a twenty-dollar bill and runs back to Emily.
Colin narrates, AND NOW SHE'S STEALING HIS MONEY. FOLKS, THIS IS SIBLING DYNAMICS IN ITS TRUEST FORM.
Sky runs behind her.
Emily says, WOW. THANK YOU.
Sky runs to Emily.
[Sky mumbles, upbeat music plays]
Emily asks, DID YOU GET IT? OKAY. LET ME HOLD. LET ME HOLD THOSE FOR YOU, OKAY? DID YOU GET EVERYTHING?
[Packages rustling]
Sky says, I DID THE SOUP.
Emily says, WOW! YOU GOT IT. YOU DID IT. HIGH FIVE! WAY TO GO! YES, GOOD JOB.
In the kitchen, Jeffrey stirs liquid in a pot.
[Background chatter]
In the interview, Emily says, SKY WAS REALLY PROUD OF WHAT HE DID TODAY AND WHAT HE'S ACCOMPLISHED.
At the dining room table, the family gathers around plates of food.
Emily asks, ARE WE GONNA, ARE WE READY TO START HOT POT?
Emily says, WOW.
Sky gives Emily a piece of beef.
Sky says, HERE.
Emily says, THANK YOU.
Jeffrey says, OKAY. GOOD JOB.
In the interview, Emily says, I'M REALLY SURPRISED, TO BE HONEST. I REALLY THOUGHT HE WASN'T GOING TO REMEMBER A LOT OF THE ITEMS, BUT HE ACTUALLY GOT ALL OF THE ITEMS THAT WERE ON OUR LIST.
At the table, Emily says, SKY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR BUYING EVERYTHING FOR US.
Sky says, I GOT ALL STUFF.
Emily says, AND IT TASTES REALLY GOOD BECAUSE OF YOUR HARD WORK.
Sky says, I ACTUALLY PAY BY MYSELF.
In the interview, Jeffrey says, I THINK HE GAINED A LOT OF CONFIDENCE BECAUSE HE ALSO REALIZED TODAY THAT, OH, I CAN ACTUALLY DO ALL THIS ON MY OWN.
At the table, Jeffrey says, says, LUNA.
Sky says, WHAT'S THAT? THAT'S THE--
Jeffrey says, GOOD JOB FOR GOING THERE AND TRYING. THUMBS UP. YEAH!
In the interview, Emily says, FOR LUNA, SEEING SKY BEING ABLE TO DO THIS, THAT WILL PROBABLY INSPIRE HER FOR WHEN SHE'S OLD ENOUGH FOR NEXT YEAR THAT SHE CAN DO THE TASK ON HER OWN AS WELL.
In the dining room, Jeffrey smiles as he puts the raw pot roast on the table beside Sky.
[Chuckling, plate thumps]
Sky says, I GOT A LOT OF MEAT.
Jeffrey says, OH. WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO WITH THIS? IT'S NOT GONNA FIT IN THE POT.
[Jeffrey laughing]
Jeffrey says, IT'S TOO BIG. WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?
Logo: Old Enough!
[Chiming]
Pinwheels spin in a flowerbed. The blonde-haired girl walks beside an adult on a sidewalk. She holds a blue leash, and a beagle walks beside her. In a bedroom, she plays with a white stuffed bunny.
[Birds chirping]
Colin narrates, IN A QUIET SOUTHERN ONTARIO COMMUNITY, LIVES THE YOUNGEST CHILD OF A BLENDED FAMILY. A KID WHO ADORES HER PUPPY BINGO, HER STUFFED BUNNY AND EXTREME SPORTS. IT'S 6-YEAR-OLD HANNAH.
Hannah rides a bicycle quickly on a street. In a backyard, she poses and smiles. Text reads, “Age 6.”
In an interview, Hannah’s parents, Sarah and Adam, sit in a living room. The brown-haired woman, Hannah’s mom, Sarah, wears a brown shirt. Hannah’s dad, Adam, wears a blue shirt. He has short brown hair, a short beard, and a moustache.
Sarah says, HANNAH IS THE YOUNGEST OF 4 KIDS, AND SHE'S REALLY EAGER TO BE JUST LIKE THE BIG KIDS.
A photograph shows Adam holding Hannah. Sarah stands beside him. To Hannah’s left is her older sister, an older brother, and a teenage brother. A second photograph shows Sarah and Hannah sitting on the stairs. Adam leans against the staircase beside Hannah. A slender teenage boy and a slender teenage girl sit on the lower steps.
Adam says, THE FACT THAT WE ARE A BLENDED FAMILY IS DEFINITELY A UNIQUE SITUATION. WHEN SARAH AND I GOT TOGETHER, WE HAD ALMOST AN INSTANT FAMILY. BUT WITH HANNAH, SHE'S OURS, AND WE GET TO DO IT TOGETHER.
Hannah’s teenage brother uses a weight machine. Beside him, Hannah lifts a weight.
Hannah asks, IS IT HEAVY?
Her teenage brother says, A LITTLE BIT.
In a bedroom, Hannah’s sister puts on lipstick. Hannah watches her and puts lipstick on.
In the interview, Sarah says, HANNAH NEVER WANTS TO BE LEFT OUT OR FEEL LIKE ANYBODY'S GETTING TO DO ANYTHING THAT SHE'S NOT ALLOWED TO DO.
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS SHE LEARNED HOW TO SAY WAS, 'I CAN DO IT..
In a kitchen, Hannah spreads jam on a piece of bread.
Hannah says, I CAN DO THIS, MAMA.
Sarah says, OKAY.
Hannah bites into her sandwich.
Colin narrates, BEING THE YOUNGEST IN THE FAMILY, HANNAH WANTS TO SHOW
HER PARENTS SHE'S MATURE ENOUGH TO DO THE THINGS HER TEENAGE SIBLINGS GET TO DO. SO LETTING HER VENTURE OFF ON HER OWN FOR THE FIRST TIME MIGHT BE THE PERFECT FIRST STEP.
In the kitchen, Hannah says, NOW LET'S GET THIS TOASTED UP.
Colin narrates, MOM IS EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HANNAH CAN DO ON HER OWN, BUT DAD ISN'T QUITE AS READY.
Adam walks beside Hannah as she walks the beagle, Bingo.
In the interview, Adam says, YEAH, I'D HAVE TO AGREE WITH THAT.
Sarah says, I THINK YOU WANT TO BABY HER BECAUSE YOU ENJOY THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE A LITTLE KID AGAIN.
At a table, Adam and Hannah write on pieces of paper.
Adam says, YEAH. SO FOR THE NEXT ONE, I'M GOING TO DO TWO IN A ROW.
In the interview, Adam says, THE MORE FREEDOM SHE HAS, IT DEFINITELY PUTS ME OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE. HAVING HANNAH GO OFF ON HER OWN IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT, BUT I WANT TO SEE IF SHE CAN DO IT.
Adam grimaces and shrugs.
[Both parents chuckling]
In Hannah’s house, Adam runs down a staircase.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BUSY DAY AT HANNAH'S HOUSE. MOM AND DAD HAVE A BILLION THINGS TO DO, BUT NO TIME TO DO THEM WHILE WORKING FROM HOME.
SO AFTER OUR SNEAKY OLD ENOUGH TEAM, DISGUISED AS WORKERS DOING HOME REPAIRS, PLANTS HIDDEN CAMERAS TO CAPTURE HANNAH'S FIRST ERRAND.
The crew puts cameras in the garage. In the house, Adam sits on the couch.
Subtitles: “Yeah, we’re having trouble with the electricity.” “I got my best guy working on it right now.”
Colin narrates, MOM CALLS HANNAH OVER TO ASK FOR HER HELP.
Sarah walks to the dining room table. Hannah sits down.
Sarah asks, CAN YOU COME SIT RIGHT HERE AND TALK TO ME FOR A MINUTE?
Hannah says, YEAH.
Sarah says, WE NEED HELP TODAY BECAUSE THEY'RE TRYING TO FIX SOME THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE. SO I HAVE TO BE HOME WITH THE DOG AND DADDY HAS TO WORK.
I WAS SUPPOSED TO DROP OFF BUTTER TARTS FOR NAN LAST NIGHT AND WE DIDN'T GET THE CHANCE. SO DO YOU THINK THAT TODAY YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO DO THE ERRAND FOR ME?
Hannah asks, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
Colin narrates, UH OH. HANNAH PUSHED SO HARD FOR THIS CHANCE AT TOTAL FREEDOM, BUT MAYBE SHE'S NOT READY AFTER ALL.
Sarah asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN, YOU CAN HELP ME OUT TODAY?
[Dramatic music plays]
Sarah asks, CAN YOU GO UPSTAIRS AND GRAB BUNNY?
Subtitle: “Wait, bunny?”
Sarah says, YEAH. YOU CAN BRING BUNNY.
Hannah cheers, YAY!
In the interview, Sarah explains, SO BUNNY IS A STUFFED BUNNY THAT GOES EVERYWHERE WITH HANNAH. BUNNY HAS TO GO ON THE ERRAND BECAUSE HANNAH DOES EVERYTHING WITH BUNNY.
Sarah says, AND I NEED YOU TO BUY DOG FOOD. AND I NEED YOU TO GO TO THE TOY STORE. AND I NEED YOU TO BUY THE BIGGEST STUFFY YOU CAN FIND FOR COUSIN MILA AS A PRESENT.
ARE YOU EXCITED TO GO AND GIVE THIS A TRY TODAY?
Hannah says, YEAH.
Sarah says, YEAH?
[Hannah giggling]
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small, animated figure holding a bunny stuffy shows a path from home to Hannah’s grandparents house. A graphic of butter tarts appears over the house.
[Rustling, popping]
Colin narrates, FOR HER FIRST ERRAND BY HERSELF, HANNAH AND BUNNY WILL TRAVEL THROUGH THE WINDING NEIGHBOURHOOD WITH A PLATE FULL OF BUTTER TARTS TO REACH HER GRANDPARENTS HOUSE AND DELIVER MOM'S HOMEMADE TREATS TO THEM.
ONCE THAT'S DONE, SHE'LL HEAD OFF AGAIN AND TRAVEL A FEW BLOCKS
TOWARDS HER NEXT STOP.
On the map, a sign reads, “Tricky corner.” The figure walks to the pet store and the toy store. Graphics of a bag of dog food and a blue bear stuffy appear.
[Popping]
Colin narrates, NOW ALONG THE WAY, SHE'LL REACH A TRICKY CORNER. TURN RIGHT, SHE MAY GET COMPLETELY LOST. TURN LEFT, AND IT WILL TAKE HER TO A PLAZA WITH THE PET STORE, WHERE SHE'LL PICK UP DOG FOOD FOR HER PUPPY BINGO. ONCE SHE HAS THAT, IT'S OFF TO THE NEARBY TOY STORE TO GET A STUFFY FOR HER COUSIN MILA'S BIRTHDAY.
At the dining room table, Sarah asks, DO YOU WANT TO BRING YOUR TOOTH FAIRY MONEY?
Hannah says, YEAH, AND I CAN BUY SOME STUFF FOR ME.
Sarah says, YOU COULD BUY SOME STUFF FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, OH, BRINGING BUNNY AND GETTING TO SPEND HER TOOTH FAIRY MONEY? NO WONDER HANNAH'S EXCITED TO GO.
Hannah gets ready by the front door.
Subtitle: “I’ve never done this before.”
Sarah says, I KNOW YOU'VE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE, BUT I THINK THAT YOU'RE OLD ENOUGH. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
HERE, LET ME CARRY IT UNTIL YOU GET OUTSIDE. OKAY? DADDY IS GOING TO COME AND SAY BYE AS WELL.
Sarah carries the plate of butter tarts outside. Adam follow her and Hannah to the front walkway.
[Upbeat music plays]
Sarah hugs Hannah and kisses the top of her head.
Sarah says, I LOVE YOU.
Hannah says, I'M GOING TO MISS YOU.
Adam says, HEY. HAVE FUN.
Adam hugs Hannah and kisses her hair.
In the interview, Adam says, I'M NERVOUS FOR HER RIGHT NOW AND FOR MYSELF. I AM PUTTING TRUST IN HANNAH'S ABILITIES. AND THAT'S AT THIS POINT ALL I CAN DO BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO BE THERE WITH HER.
Outside, Sarah gives Hannah the butter tarts.
Sarah asks, CAN YOU HAVE EVERYTHING?
Hannah says, YEAH. BYE MOM. I'M GOING TO MISS YOU.
Sarah says, I'LL MISS YOU TOO.
Adam waves.
[Energetic music plays]
Hannah walks along the sidewalk.
Outside, Sarah says, I THINK I'M MORE NERVOUS THAN I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO BE.
[Adam laughing]
Adam says, YEAH, SHE'S MADE THIS WALK HUNDREDS OF TIMES, BUT NEVER ON HER OWN.
Sarah says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, WOW. MOST KIDS WOULD HAVE GOBBLED UP THOSE BUTTER TARTS BY NOW. MAYBE HANNAH IS NOT THE TYPE TO GIVE IN TO TEMPTATION. WHAT DO YOU THINK, DAD?
Inside the house, Adam says, SHE HAS THIS FASCINATION WITH CLIMBING ON TOP OF ELECTRICAL BOXES AND BIG PILES OF LEAVES, AND THERE'S SOME PRETTY BIG PILES ALONG THE WAY, SO I DON'T THINK SHE'S GOING TO GO STRAIGHT THERE.
Hannah puts the plate and Bunny on the sidewalk, jumps into a pile of leaves, and throws leaves on herself.
[Plate clatters, leaves rustle, gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, THAT'S A DAD WHO KNOWS HIS DAUGHTER.
WELL, WE GOT THAT OUT OF OUR SYSTEM. NOW GRAB BUNNY AND THE BUTTER TARTS AND BACK TO THE ERRAND. HM, BUNNY AND THE BUTTER TARTS. SOUNDS LIKE ONE OF THOSE EMO BANDS YOUR DAD LISTENS TO.
In the interview, Adam says, AND HELLO, GRANDMA AND GRANDPA.
Grandma and Grandpa clean up leaves and weed plants in their yard.
[Leaves rustling]
Grandma says, HANNAH.
Grandpa says, OH, WOW.
Grandma asks, DID YOU BRING THOSE FOR ME?
Hannah nods.
Both grandparents say, NO WAY.
Grandma says, I CAN PUT THEM ON THE STEP.
Hannah says, THEY'RE HEAVY.
Grandma says, WOW. HEY, BUNNY. HOW ARE YOU?
Colin narrates in a funny voice, I'M GOOD GRANDMA.
Colin narrates, SORRY, THAT WAS REALLY ME. STUFFED BUNNIES CAN'T ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, THEY CAN'T TALK.
Grandma asks, WHERE ARE YOU GOING AFTER THIS?
Hannah says, I'M OFF TO THE PET STORE NOW.
Grandma says, I LOVE YOU. BE A GOOD GIRL. OKAY?
Grandma hugs Hannah and kisses the top of her head. Grandpa hugs Hannah.
[Smooching]
Grandpa says, LOVE YOU.
Grandma says, WE'LL SEE YOU SOON. WE'LL SEE BINGO TOO.
Grandpa says, OKAY. BE SAFE.
Hannah says, OKAY, GOODBYE.
Grandma says, BYE, HANNAH.
Grandpa says, BYE, SWEETHEART.
Grandma says, I LOVE YOU.
Hannah says, LOVE YOU.
Hannah steps on top of an electrical box and jumps off.
[Clunking, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, OH! ELECTRICAL BOX. NAILED IT AGAIN, DAD.
Hannah runs on the sidewalk. She stops at a corner and looks both ways.
[Tense music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW TO SPRINT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT TO THE PET STORE AND TOY SHOP. UH OH. HERE'S THAT TRICKY CORNER. LEFT OR RIGHT? LEFT OR RIGHT?
Hannah turns left. She runs past a person walking on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, THAT'S THE WAY! GOOD MEMORY. NOW OUT OF THE WAY SLOWPOKE, HANNAH IS ON A MISSION.
Hannah skips on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, LOOK HOW PROUD SHE IS.
Hannah skips and twirls on the sidewalk.
Colin narrates, SKIPPIN', SPINNIN', SKIPPIN', SPINNIN'. SKIP, SKIP, SKIP, SKIPITTY SKIP, AND A HOP-- LIKE... A BUNNY! COME ON, HANNAH. GIVE US ONE MORE SPIN WITH BUNNY.
Hannah walks onto a sidewalk beside a busy street.
[Engines humming]
Colin narrates, THERE WE GO.
Hannah drops Bunny.
Colin narrates, OH, NO. YOU DROPPED BUNNY.
Hannah runs back and picks up Bunny.
Colin narrates, OH, THANK GOODNESS THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE.
Hannah crosses a parking lot and looks at a store. She opens the door and walks past dog toys.
Subtitle: “Looks like this might be it.”
[Door squeaking]
Subtitle: “Are you looking for dog food?”
Hannah says, I MAY, I MIGHT LOOK FOR THE DOG FOOD LAST, ACTUALLY.
Colin narrates, LAST? WHAT ELSE ARE WE GETTING?
Hannah looks at birthday cards.
Colin narrates, OH, WHAT BINGO NEEDS IS A DOG BIRTHDAY CARD. SO THOUGHTFUL. EVEN THOUGH DOGS ARE TERRIBLE AT READING.
[Hannah humming]
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, OH, YOU DROPPED YOUR MONEY THERE SWEETHEART.
Hannah picks up her money.
Colin narrates, FIRST HER BUNNY, NOW HER MONEY. THIS ISN'T FUNNY. HEY. THAT RHYMED.
[Hannah sighing]
Hannah asks, DO YOU HAVE ANY DOG FOODS THAT HAVE TWO M'S AT THE END IN THE WORD?
The white-haired man says, THIS ONE'S CALLED FROMM WITH TWO M'S. IS THAT THE NAME OF IT? FROMM?
Hannah says, NO, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT ONE.
[Upbeat music plays]
The white-haired man says, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT ONE. DO YOU THINK YOUR DOG WILL LIKE, WILL LIKE STEAK?
Hannah says, NO, MY, MY DOG KIND OF LIKES CHEESE.
The white-haired man says, OH. THIS ONE, HAS CHICKEN AND CHEESE IN IT.
Hannah asks, IS THIS ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY?
The white-haired man says, OH, ABSOLUTELY. YEAH.
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, ALL RIGHT. AND WHO IS THE CARD FOR?
Hannah says, UM, MY DOG.
The white-haired man says, OH, THAT'S--
Hannah says, BECAUSE HER BIRTHDAY IS COMING UP.
The white-haired man says, IS IT? WHAT'S HER NAME?
Hannah says, AH, BINGO.
The white-haired man says, BINGO? IT'S 40 DOLLARS.
Hannah says, TWENTY?
The white-haired man says, TWENTY, YEP. AND THEN ONE MORE 20 IS GOING TO BE 40, RIGHT? LOOK AT YOU. I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME EXTRA TREATS FOR BINGO FOR HIS BIRTHDAY.
Hannah pays.
Hannah asks, YOU WANT ME TO PAY FOR THEM?
The white-haired man says, NO, IT'S A FREEBIE BECAUSE IT'S, IT'S BINGO'S BIRTHDAY.
Hannah says, OKAY.
The white-haired man says, OKAY. BYE BYE.
Hannah holds the door open and looks back inside.
Hannah says, IT'S NOT BINGO'S BIRTHDAY TODAY. IT'S SOON.
Colin narrates, DON'T TELL HIM THAT, HE MIGHT TAKE BACKTHE FREE TREATS. ALL RIGHT. GOT THE DOG FOOD. TIME TO GET A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR COUSIN MILA.
Hannah says, OKAY. TOY STORE.
Hannah looks around. She walks to the large toy store.
Colin narrates, AND THERE IT IS. THE TOY STORE. PLASTIC PARADISE. THEY'VE GOT STUFFIES, DOLLS, GLOWY THINGS, FLUFFY THINGS. THINGS THAT MAKE ENOUGH NOISE TO DRIVE YOUR PARENTS BANANAS. NOW TO FIND A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR MILA.
[Upbeat music plays]
A shopper says, HEY.
Hannah says, HEY.
Subtitle: “You know what? I’m looking for a toy for my daughter, and she’s about your age. What do you think she would get? Do you think she would like a big stuffy or something?”
Hannah says, FOLLOW ME.
Colin narrates, YEAH. FOLLOW HER. SHE'S THE EXPERT HERE.
Hannah says, I'M GONNA SAVE THIS ONE FOR MY COUSIN. BUT ALL OF THESE, THEY LOOK LIKE THIS. AND IF YOU GO ON THE INSIDE, YOU PULL OUT AND THEY LOOK LIKE A DIFFERENT STUFFY.
Subtitle: “Thank you for your help.”
Colin narrates, I DON'T KNOW WHAT ANY OF THAT MEANT, BUT I'M SOLD.
Hannah looks at art kits.
Colin narrates, YOU KNOW, THESE ART KITS LOOK LIKE THE PERFECT WAY TO BLOW ALL YOUR TOOTH FAIRY MONEY.
An art kit falls on the floor. Hannah picks it up and puts it back on a peg.
[Thumping]
Colin narrates, UH OH. DON'T WORRY. JUST PUT IT BACK. NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW.
OKAY, SO IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S CHOSEN AN ART KIT FOR HERSELF. AND A TRANSFORMING RAINBOW STUFFY THING FOR COUSIN MILA. NOW TO PAY.
A cashier says, THAT ONE IS YOURS?
Hannah pays.
Colin narrates, WAIT A SECOND. WHERE'S BUNNY?
[Alarmed music plays]
Hannah picks Bunny up from the counter.
Colin narrates, OH. NEVER MIND. THERE'S BUNNY. YOU REALLY GOTTA STOP DOING THIS TO ME, HANNAH.
Hannah leaves the toy store carrying two bags and Bunny.
[Engines humming]
Colin narrates, AND WITH THEIR ARMS LOADED UP WITH EVERYTHING THEY NEEDED TO GET, IT'S TIME FOR HANNAH AND BUNNY TO HEAD BACK HOME.
On the sidewalk in front of their house, Sarah and Adam shade their eyes as they peer up the street.
[Sarah gasping, upbeat music plays]
Sarah says, HERE SHE COMES.
Sarah says, HI, HANNAH.
Hannah says, HI.
Hannah puts down her bags and hugs Sarah. Sarah and Adam hug and kiss Hannah.
Sarah says, HI. YOU DID IT!
In the interview, Sarah says, HANNAH DID GREAT.
Adam says, HANNAH, PROVED TO ME THAT SHE IS MORE CAPABLE THAN I POSSIBLY GAVE HER CREDIT FOR.
Outside, Hannah says, SO I COULDN'T FIND THE PET TREATS THAT YOU TOLD ME TO GOT.
Sarah asks, DID YOU EXPLAIN WHAT BINGO LIKES TO EAT?
Hannah says, YEAH. I SAID CHEESE.
Sarah says, YOU SAID CHEESE. THAT WAS A GOOD DECISION.
In the interview, Adam says, AND SHE DOES DESERVE MORE FREEDOM.
Adam says, GOOD JOB.
Hannah hugs Adam and Sarah.
Sarah says, OH.
In the interview, Sarah says, THIS EXPERIENCE GAVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THAT SHE'S CAPABLE OF BEING A BIG KID, JUST LIKE THE OTHER KIDS.
In the living room, Hannah sits on a couch with her older sister and teenage brother, who are watching her draw.
Hannah’s older sister says, THESE ARE SUPER COOL.
Hannah says, YEAH.
Hannah’s older sister says, IT'S A REALLY GOOD DRAWING TOO.
In the interview, Sarah says, SHE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THAT SHE GOT TO GO TO THE STORE BY HERSELF AND PICK SOMETHING OUT WITHOUT ANYONE TELLING HER WHAT SHE WAS ALLOWED TO BUY.
In the living room, Adam asks, DO YOU THINK YOU'D WANT TO GO ON ANOTHER ERRAND SOMETIME FOR US?
Hannah nods.
In the interview, Adam says, AND I THINK THAT WAS THE BEST PART, IS HOW EXCITED HANNAH GOT WHEN BINGO DEMOLISHED THE FOOD.
Hannah pours kibble into a dish, and it spills over the sides. Bingo runs to the dish and eats.
[Food rattling]
Sarah says, ATE THE FOOD?
Adam says, YEAH.
[Both chuckling]
Hannah says, BINGO. I WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE STORE. AND I GOT YOU DOG FOOD AND WENT BACK HOME.
In the interview, Adam says, THERE'S DEFINITELY ROOM FOR MORE FREEDOM. SHE'S ALREADY ASKED ME WHEN HER NEXT ERRAND WILL BE.
Hannah asks, CAN I GO WALK BY MYSELF, NOW?
Sarah says, SOMETIMES. MAYBE.
Hannah says, I CAN WALK BY MYSELF.
