Jim leaves Scranton four times. Three for himself, one for them.

Now he comes back again for her. For his little girl who is somehow in the driver’s seat, bickering with her brother about the fastest way to Grandma and Grandpa’s.

They make pro/con lists about Penn State and Fordham and Canisius while Pam stares out the window. She sniffles once, quietly, listening to their babies.

He wants to tell her they’ll never really be gone, that their hearts will always pull them back.

Instead he hooks his pinky with hers and brings her hand to his lips.

Phil notices from shotgun, and rolls his eyes.
