Pam:I know that it took me a little while to come around and its still a little weird to get used to, but you obviously make my mom very happy. And that makes me happy.
Michael:Wow. That just-- you've really grown.
Pam:Well--
Michael:[covering eyes] Thank you Pam. And I hope you are as gracious during this next part. Helene, once again you are a wonderful person and you have lived a great life and I envy it.

And her name is Italy... and skydiving... and bungee jumping.
Jim:Okay, so--

Pam:Michael.

Helene:I, um-- I got it.
