[The sounds of a little girl giggling can be heard over the journal. Hannah, age five, has decided that she's going to take the journal and hide. She's doing this because she wants to draw in private and also, because she's pretty sure she's going to be in trouble in 1... 2... 3...]
Hannah!! [Jo is moving chairs and nearly scrambling on the floor to get to Chase the dog.]
Give it back. C'mon... just drop the head and go get a sock or a toy that is not that.
[Hannah giggles and stops drawing a picture of a flower.] He won the tug of war, Mom!
Hannah... this was a very special doll. He needs his head to stay on his body.
Why? It just popped right off!
[Jo will not try to explain to a five year old that she just beheaded Robert Chase and let the dog run away with his head. She will not have a panic attack about people remembering things when they get off losses. She will just try to calmly wait until the dog takes the toy instead of the head.]
Can someone take me to the pool?
Hannah, do you have my journal??
No...

Ten minutes she's been doing that. I thought it'd wear her out. But... nope.

Easy with the dramatics out there. [She's quite... domestic with this whole instant kid thing, but she's pretty settled with it by now. She'll bring the glass of water to Steve.] She'll be worn out soon enough.

[and just like that Hannah stops and makes a beeline for Steve. She slides her hand into his and tugs on it.]
You're gonna take me?

[Hannah might have a little crush or just the average hero worship.]
Uh-huh. Look, Steve's well aware of how he's gotta get you back in time for dinner.
Fiiiiine.

I can be as loco as I want to. Take care of my Doctor Chase doll's Body!!!
I don't even want to know where you are picking up random Spanish words... [Then to Steve she mouths: THANK YOU.]
[Jo sighs, watching them head off and then she'll turn around and try to see if she can get Penny to play with Chase the Dog. That way, they'll play with each other and not... the Ken Doll Head.]
