Chessy:Hello, gorgeous!

Chessy:Oh, look at you! Oh, you grew. Oh, we missed you so much.

Chessy:Hey, don't you dare let your old man talk you out of going back to camp. Okay? You're a growing girl. You need adventure.

Annie:Okay.

Chessy:Oh, you hungry? l made corn bread and chili. Why are you so quiet? What's wrong?

Annie:Nothing, it's just...l'm so happy to be home.

Dad:Hey, did l hear something about corn bread and chili?

Chessy:Yeah, it's on the stove.

Chessy:So, something's changed about you, Hal. Umm, l can't put my finger on it, but something about you is definitely changed.

Annie:Really? Well, it's just the same old me. Honest.

Sammy (their dog)keeps shouting at Annie.

Annie:Hi, Sammy(their dog).

Chessy:What is wrong with you, you goofball? It's Hallie.

Annie:Oh, l, l probably just smell like camp, that's all.

Chessy:The matter with you? It's like you didn't even recognize her.

Annie:Wow! It's even better than the pictures.

Chessy:Okay, kiddo. What do ya wanna do first, huh?

Chessy:You wanna eat and then unpack? Or, uh, we could unpack and then eat. Or we could eat while we unpack.

Annie:Do you mean l can eat in my room?

Chessy:Yeah, l'd say it's a definite possibility.

Dad:Hey, Hal, when you're done, come on down. There's someone l want you to meet.

Annie:Okay, Dad.

Dad:Okay, Hal.

Annie saw that her dad was sitting with a lady.

Meredith:Look at you. Always eating. Did you tell her?

Dad:No.

Meredith:Nicky.

Dad:l will. l will.

Annie Looks anxious When she saw that her father being very intimate with another woman.

Annie:Tell me what?

Chessy:Hal, it is none of my business how your father makes a fool out of himself. Okay? He's a big boy. He can do what he wants.

Annie:Okay. Okay. So, who is she?

Chessy:Her name's Meredith Blake. She's a publicist from San Francisco. Your father hired her at the beginning of the summer, to do some publicity for the vineyard.

Chessy:If you ask me, she's doing a better job of selling herself than the grapes.

Annie:What do you mean?

Chessy:Look, you and l both know your father's not some kind of suave, debonair bachelor-of-the-month type.

Chessy:So, l gotta ask myself, ''What does a hot, young thing like that, see in a guy who walks around with his shirttail hanging out and his cereal bowl full of chili?''

Chessy:Then, l realized there's about a million reasons why that girl's giggling.

Chessy:All of them are sitting at the Napa Valley Community Bank.

Annie:You mean, you don't think she even really likes him?

Chessy:Eh, what do l know? But l'll tell you one thing. This one's got your father eating out of the palm of her hand.

Chessy:They do everything together. They ride together. They swim together. They go out to eat dinner every night.

Chessy:But, you know what? Meet her. See for yourself. Don't let me influence you.
