Digger Reed:
[knocks on Ben's door, then walks in]
Hey, Junior? Oh good, you're not asleep. Can I come in?
Benjamin Reed:
[laying in his bed reading, Ben looks at his Dad]
Hi.
Digger Reed:
Hi. How ya doing?
Benjamin Reed:
Fine. I'm doing fine.
Digger Reed:
Good. I'm doing fine too.
Benjamin Reed:
You allright?
Digger Reed:
I wanted to apologize to you, I know I've been a little hard on you lately.
Benjamin Reed:
It's no big, deal.
Digger Reed:
[goes over and sits on the edge of Ben's desk]
Well, I got something for ya. Do you know where I was, on the day you were born?
Benjamin Reed:
On the moon, where else?
Digger Reed:
That's right! That's right, I was on the moon! I was standing on the lunar surface, looking up at the sky, back at the Earth. And Houston came over the radio, and told me you had been born. So, I reached down at my feet, and the first thing I picked up...
[holds out a moon rock for Ben to see, then bobbles it in his hand and catches it]

Digger Reed:
I was gonna wait until next month, 'till you turned 17 to give this to you, but you know, come on. What the heck.
[hands the rock to Ben]

Digger Reed:
I only want what's best for you.
Benjamin Reed:
I know that, Dad.
[walks over to his nightstand and puts the moon rock in front of the picture of him and Digger, then sits down on the bed and smiles]

Digger Reed:
Now, come on! You can find a little better place to put it than that!
[grabs the rock and starts looking around Ben's room]

Benjamin Reed:
I kinds of liked it where it was...
Digger Reed:
No, see right here!
[moves some of Ben's trophy's and puts it on one of the shelves in Ben's bookcase. Ben flops down on the bed, unimpressed]

Digger Reed:
There you go! Now see? You can see it from all angles, I mean, it really jumps out at ya' right there, don't you think?
Benjamin Reed:
[still lying on the bed]
Thanks for the rock, Dad.
Digger Reed:
[reaches over and taps his son on the foot]
All right! All right, good! I'm glad we got this settled now! OK, I'm gonna get rolling, and I'll see you in, uh... two weeks!
Benjamin Reed:
Keep 'em flying, Dad.
Digger Reed:
Ha Ha!
[grins, gives Ben a thumb up and walks out, closing the door behind him]

Benjamin Reed:
[shakes his head and smiles]
