- [Tod](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000206/?ref_=ttqu_qu): Can I speak frankly, no holds barred? - [_Helen nods_] - [Tod](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000206/?ref_=ttqu_qu): That is one messed up little dude.

It made him happy. - [Helen](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001848/?ref_=ttqu_qu): Garry was happy? - [Tod](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000206/?ref_=ttqu_qu): He even smiled!

My dear family, guess what? Today I found out what my special purpose is for. Gosh, what a great time I had. I wish the whole family could’ve been here with me.

Your loving son, Navin. ---
