Grizz was dreaming about Shelley and the cubs. Grizz was in the bedroom with Shelley arguing when the cubs entered the room holding suitcases. "Grizz, I want a divorce, and I'm filing for full custody of my cubs!" said Shelley, laughing wickedly. As Shelley was about to leave, Grizz grabbed Shelley by the arm and said, "You're not going to take my kids away from me!" "Kids, get in the car!" Shelley said. "Why are you doing this to me, Shelley?" Grizz asked with tears in his eyes. "Because you hurt me, and now it's my turn to hurt you by taking the cubs and moving to Miami Beach, Florida," said Shelley, giving her wedding bracelet to Grizz. As Shelley left, Grizz woke up crying.

The cubs entered the room and hugged Grizz. "Daddy, we were thinking that maybe you should serenade Mommy," said April. "I don't think that your Mom wants me to serenade her, April," said Grizz. "Besides, she hates me!"

Bradley grabbed the phone and said, "Well, if you're not going to serenade her, I will!"  Bradley dialed the number and gave the phone to Grizzly.

"Why you little brat! No, Shelley, I wasn't calling you a brat!" Grizz cried. "Please don't hang up! The kids wanted me to serenade you. I said that I was sorry! I'm not yelling at you! If you just listen to me! Hello? Shelley? Shelley! She hung up!"

"What did mom say?" Bradley asked. "Your mother is thinking about getting a divorce," said Grizz crying. "She hates me!" "When was the last time you serenade Mom?" Crystal asked.

"Years ago, I took your mother to a Shakespeare Festival in Pennsylvania. We went as Romeo and Juliet." Grizz said. "How romantic!" said Eliza. "Did you guys win?" asked Dipper. "Yes, Dipper, we did! Your Mother and I did a Romeo and Juliet balcony and death scene! We even had a standing ovation from the audience!"

Grizz wiped his tears and said, "I drove her home that night. I walked your Mom to the door and she invited me inside to meet her parents." 

"How old were you when you started dating mom?" Wyatt asked. "I was twenty years old, and your mom was fifteen," said Grizz. "You were dating a fifteen-year-old?! Are you crazy?!" Bradley cried.

"Well, that was your mother's fault. She lied about her age, saying that she was eighteen, and she lied to her parents that I was sixteen. When I told her parents the truth, she was grounded for a month, and I was forbidden to see her again."

"That's so sad, Daddy," said Eliza hugging Grizz. Grizz began to cry.

"You know, I think it would be nice if you have a good opportunity to get a little bit of everything from Mommy," said Crystal. "What are you talking about?" Grizz asked looking confused.

"What Crystal is trying to say is that if you want to have a happy relationship with Mommy, then you have to get up and go to her and say,

"I'm sorry...Um, what's Mom's full name?" asked April. "Michelle Elizabeth Bear," said Grizz. "She likes to be called Shelley."

"That's a pretty name! I'm sorry, Shelley; please forgive me for hurting you. I was a fool! It was all my fault!" April said. "What do you think, Daddy?"

"I think that your Mom is not going to buy it, April," said Grizz.

"Dad, why is mom being stubborn? It was just a stupid punch bowl!" Dipper shouted.

"It's not just the punch bowl, Dipper," said Grizz. "I hit, abused, and viciously attacked your mother!"  Grizz went to the kitchen and began to make lunch. 

Twenty minutes later, as the cubs were eating lunch, Grizz received a message from Shelley that read:

I'm going to be home late.
Make sure the kids are fed.
There are chicken tenders in the freezer and a box of rice in the pantry. Try not to burn down the house.

Grizz texted Shelley back saying,

Shelley, we need to talk about what happened this morning.
Please give me a call.

After lunch, the cubs went to the living room.

"We've got to do something about Dad," said GJ. "He's becoming a Mr. Woe Is Me!"

"If only we knew a famous musician who could serenade Mom," said Ryan.

"Ryan, you're a genius!" GJ shouted. Grabbing the wedding album from the shelf, GJ said,

"Look at this, guys, this Kenny Loggins guy sang at Mom and Dad's wedding. If we call Kenny and get him here to serenade Mom, she'll forgive Dad, and he'll play with us again!" The cubs cheered as GJ dialed the phone number.

One hour later...

"Kids, do you want carrots or broccoli with your chicken tend- why is Kenny Loggins in our living room?" Grizz asked entering the room looking surprised. 😲

"He's here to serenade Mom since you're too chicken to do it," said Bradley.

Grizz glared at his cubs, but Kenny said, "Grizzly, your son, GJ, sounded desperate on the phone when he called me saying that you and your wife, Shelley, were having a heated dispute. Is this true?"

"Well, yeah, Shelley and I were arguing in the kitchen, and before she left, I sorta hit her," said Grizz.

"Sorta? Dad, you've turned primal on Mom and beat her!" GJ cried.

"You've made Mommy cry, Daddy," said Eliza.

"We don't need to bore Kenny Loggins with the details, kids," said Grizz.

"You're right, Dad. We need him to sing this song that he sang at your and mom's wedding." Ryan said.

"Will you do it, Kenny?" Ivory asked. "Well, if it's okay with your Dad," said Kenny.

Grizz sighed and said, "Let me get her on speakerphone."

Shelley: Hello?

Grizzly: Shelley, I have you on speakerphone, please don't hang up. I just need you to listen to me okay?

Shelley: Okay, I'm listening but it better be good.

Grizz: Go, Kenny!

And with that, Kenny was singing this song.

For the First Time
Sung by Kenny Loggins

Are those your eyes?
Is that your smile?
I've been looking at you forever
Yet I never saw you before

Are these your hands
Holding mine?
Now I wonder how
I could've been so blind
For the first time
I am looking in your eyes

For the first time
I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see
When you're looking back at me

Now I understand what love is
Love is for the first time
Can this be real?
Can this be true?
Am I the person I was this morning?
And are you the same as you?

It's all so strange
How can it be?
All along this love
Was right in front of me

For the first time
I am looking in your eyes
For the first time
I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see

When you're looking back at me
Now I understand what love is
Love is for the first time

Such a long time ago
I had given up on finding
This emotion never again
But you're here with me now
Yes, I've found you somehow
And I've never been so sure

And for the first time
I am looking in your eyes
For the first time
I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see
When you're looking back at me
Now I understand what love is
Love is for the first time.

When the song was over,  Shelley, still on speakerphone,
said,

Shelley: Oh, that was beautiful!. You remember our wedding song, Grizz.

Grizz: I also remember who sang it, right Kenny?

GJ: Hey! I called Kenny Loggins first!

Grizz: Quiet, son. Grown adults are talking!

Shelley: Kenny Loggins?! Oh, my gosh! Kenny Loggins is in my house! Oh, my gosh!

Kenny: Hello, Shelley. It's been a pleasure serenading you. Have a great day. Here's Grizz.

As Kenny left Grizz took Shelley off the speakerphone.

"So, Shelley, do you forgive me? No? I thought you liked Kenny Loggins! Sweetheart, I'm not yelling at you! What do you mean by that I paid Kenny Loggins fifty dollars to serenade you? Oh, I see. You just received a text message from GJ saying that he paid Kenny Loggins," said Grizz glaring at his cubs. "Shelley, please listen to me, yeah, I know the song didn't come from me! Why are you being stubborn? Yes, you are! Just like your dad! Yeah, you heard me! You're nothing but a spoiled little b- hello?"

As Grizz hung up the phone, GJ said, "Well, we're going to play outside! See you later, Dad!"

"FREEZE PIPSQUEAKS! PLANT YOUR FURRY BUTTS ON THE COUCH NOW!" Grizz yelled.
