Lois: [Carrying Baby in sling] This is the spot, this is where we came last time. It's just wonderful. I never thought I'd love the great outdoors but I love this spot…
Clark: [breathing deeply; he's carrying the picnic basket; he has also carried the two other people] Yes, this is a great place, though I think I like parts of Switzerland better…
Lois: Next time.
Clark: Umm, when we get your suit fixed up… [spreads out blanket] Okay. Give her to me.
Baby: [gurgles]
Lois: No way, I know exactly what you'll do.
Clark: No, I won't, I promise.
Baby: [gurgles]
Lois: Yeah, I bet… [but she hands the baby over anyhow because she needs both hands for other things]
Clark: Hi, doll… Daddy promised he wouldn't, but…
Baby: [gurgles]
Lois: Clark…
Clark: Just once. [Toss] Look at her go!
Baby: [gurgles] "Wheeeeeeeeeee!"
Lois: Clark, go get her, you know she's not good at landing yet.
Clark: She just needs practice and this is the perfect place for it.
Lois: Go get her. Now.
Clark: [pointing toward the horizon] Oh, look! She's making friends with an eagle! I never got to do that when I was little…
Lois: Your parents had no idea — and I can't see her! Clark, if you lose her again I *really* won't forgive you this time!
Clark: All right, all right [takes off]
Lois: [sighs] And they say fatherhood makes men mature…
Clark: [distantly] I heard that…
Lois: [addressing the air] Well, hear this, buddy: if she gets her clothes dirty or torn, *you're* fixing them — *and* you can explain it to your mother!
THE END
[Hmm, maybe I should have named this "Neverending Battle"…]
