It's sort of an unspoken rule

That things will not turn out the way you plan

Marisol: Here you are.

Lori: Thanks.

Marisol: I'll be off in 15 if y'all don't mind waiting.

Lori: Not at all.

...

Lori: Hey. I found us a place to stay for the night. You ready to turn in?

Frankie: What about the car?

Lori: We can worry about that in the morning—it's getting pretty late. Come on, it's just across the street.

Frankie [to herself]: Yeah, sure, whatever. Thanks for checking with me first...

Frankie: ... This is where we're staying?

Lori: Oh come on. I think it's kind of fun.

Frankie: Mom. I know you're having a great time on your little adventure, but can we please go home?

Lori: Despite what you might think, this wasn't an easy decision, Frankie. I thought about it for a long time. And I truly believe that I did the right thing, for both of us. But if that's what you want, then fine. We can go home.

Marisol: Sorry, am I interrupting?

Lori: Oh, um, not at all.

Marisol: Great, ready for the tour?

...

Marisol: Well, here it is. My sister's got a thing for the tropics, so apologies for the decor. Decent kitchen in here, bathroom behind us, oh, and there's a bedroom in the back.

TV gets one channel, and we've got a few DVDs. No WiFi or anything though. Also, one quirk of the area—electronics will go haywire every now and then. Just turn on without warning, things like that. You get used to it.

Here are the keys. Just drop em off at the bar when you're headed out of town.

Lori: Thanks again for all of this, Sol.

Marisol: Don't mention it.

Lori: Alright, let's eat while these burgers are still lukewarm.

Lori: ... Frankie?

Lyrics:

I had this crazy idea. Somehow we'd coast to the end.

Change lies in every direction.

So now, I guess we'll just begin again.
