Lee House, Living Room

(Thomas, Timmy, Mark, and Freddie talking)

Freddie: Father's Day is tomorrow boys you know what that means.

Timmy: It's been 3 years and 6 months sinceThomas moved in and we had these conversations.

Thomas: Seem shorter than that.

Freddie: Well that and it means we get to spend the school day with our dads.

Thomas: I heard taking your kids to work day and now is taking your parents to school day. The future is really crazy (laughs).

Mark: I can't wait to talk about my family history. Not to brag, I have a crazy family origins.

Freddie: What about you guys?

Thomas: Well I'm a little bit Irish on my mom's side.

Timmy: I have some Indian descendants from my mother.

Freddie: What about your dad's side.

Timmy: His great grandparents were Asian.

Mark: You win?

Thomas: Our gene pool is a whole community (laughs).

Freddie: What are you guys getting your dad for Father's Day.

(Kevin walks in)

Kevin: Come on boys, there is a new family moving I .

(All of them walk outside)

Timmy: I don't see the logic of going to meet someone we haven't met yet.

Kevin: It's good to make a first impression, that's to show people who you are.

(Kevin see the new neighbor, Jerry)

Jerry: Jinx.

Kevin: Ok boys end of impression.

Jerry: Jinx Lee got over here. 

Kevin: Boys, this is my old friend Jerry. Jerry, these are my sons and they're friends.

Thomas: Unless you guys say the same things all the time what's with the Jinx.

Kevin: Is nothing.

Jerry: Is the opposite of that. When your dad was a kid he had the worst luck.

Mark: What with school.

Jerry: In school, getting jobs, eating lunch, and especially with girls. You obviously don't have that problem anymore with two sons.

(A awkward quiet moment)

Kevin: So what are you doing here.

Jerry: My son is going to a local school and luckily for me it is Father's Day so I can join on his first day. See you there.

(Jerry walks away)

Freddie: I thought I had a bad reputation.

Kevin: That when I was young and clumsy.

Timmy: I have to agree luck is just one rational excuse people use to explain consequences.

(Kevin kicks a rock in his wind shield)

Thomas: We don't have any black in our blood do we (laughs)

(Next Day)

Madison Highschool, Classroom

(Freddie dad, Fred, telling a story)

Fred: And that's how I fix a 2 million dollar car with tape, a wench, and my old sock, thank you.

Freddie: I got my mechanic skills from him.

Thomas: I thought Mark's dad's fish story was cool.

Mark: Thanks shouldn't you dad have been here already.

Timmy: He shouldn't have been here approximately 8 minutes ago.

Brian: Ok since we missed one day we're moving up to last father, Jerry.

(Jerry walks to the stand)

Jerry: Hey kids.

(Kevin walks in)

Thomas: Dad.

Kevin: Sorry I'm late for some reason my window repair took 3 hours more than he said.

Fred: I could've broken it down to one hour with a bag of sand and flamethrower.

Thomas: Looks like you and that car would feel the burn (laughs).

Kevin: I also blew out the tire and got a ticket. Plus all my notes from the job I was going to show on my computer were deleted when the car hit the speed bump.

Jerry: Well sorry Jinx you can go after me. I work for a football team.

(All the people impressed)

Jerry: I even have the ball that was kickers farthest kicker in history. Here hold it Jinx.

(Kevin loses his grip and accidentally pushes in the fire alarm)

(Fire sprinklers go off)

(Few minutes later)

Football Field

Brian: Since the fire alarm wet the school and Jerry football story I thought we could spend the rest of the day playing old fashioned pig skin.

Thomas: I think the pig bones will be sad for not being included (laughs).

Jerry: Ok let's split into teams, hey where Jinx. I guess we can start without him.

(Thomas and Timmy seeing Jevin sitting in the bench)

Timmy: Dad, you supposed to sit on a bench when someone puts you there.

Kevin: Just play without me boys.

Thomas: Dad you're just having a bad day, you are not really Jinx.

Kevin: I know that but when I was younger I made a lot of mistakes. The more I thought I was a jinx made do stupid stuff, like not you two spend more time together when you younger and with your mothers. I am the worst father in the world.

Timmy: Dad we had a lot of trouble thinking of your gift and had plenty of bad ideas. I said give you a dictionary 

Thomas: A lot of mine included jump scares.

Timmy: But we decided to keep it simple words.

Thomas: There are a lot of fathers in the world, good, bad, and in between.

Timmy: We always forget they make mistakes because they're human.

Thomas: Mistakes are something we have own up too.

Timmy: Like my father, Kevin Lee.

Thomas and Timmy: So that makes our dad the best dad in the world.

Kevin: Thanks boys, you're the greatest gifts I ever had in my life.

(All three of them hug)

Thomas: Does that mean we don't have to get you anything next year.

(Kevin laughs)

(All three of them walk on the field)

Jerry: I've been hard on you Jinx so to make up for it I will give you the last kick.

Kevin: Ok I hope I don't damage anyone's car.

(Kevin kicks the ball high in the sky)

(Everyone in owe)

Timmy: If my calculations are correct, that is a new world record.

Jerry: Ji… I mean Kevin that amazing if you want it I can put in a good word for you on the team. You will have an awesome life.

Kevin: Thanks but my life is already pretty awesome.
