The text I got today started with: Vic has had an emotional collapse.
The rest will be apparent after the story so I will print it at the end.
Since Bill didn't want to watch anymore cartoons this morning after Victoria and he practiced her spelling, he decided to find a movie. He was in luck Lassie the updated movie was on. Here Bill thought he was in the clear, no cussing, no sexual scenes. Good Classic Fun right.?.?
He goes to play the piano (usual for most mornings) and when he comes into the living room later he finds Victoria sitting on the couch in the midst of a full blown crying jag.
She is crying uncontrollably. He looks at here and says What happened!?!
She says over and over, "it is just so sad, it is just so sad" Wiping her tear covered face on her barbie blanket.
He looks at the TV and realized that a)Lassie is now limping out of the river with a cut paw and b) he didn't tell Vic that never Lassie "dies" and in the end always ends up okay.
So he says, "IT is okay. Lassie is okay! Lassie is ALWAYS okay! That is the way they all are Lassie gets hurt, runs up to Timmy and he hugs her then gives her a bath!"
Of course upon looking further at the movie he realizes that Lassie is not limping up to Timmy until the next day when he is at school revealing the fact that the Lassie has had some time to be fully and convincingly "dead" to our 6 year old on the couch!
He then tells Victoria to watch! On the movie, Lassie runs up to Timmy. He hugs her and all the kids come out. Then the credits roll!
Victoria says without missing a beat. "They didn't give her a bath!"
Here is the text: Vic has had an emotional collapse...that is the last time I put Lassie on and walk out of the room.
