Narrator: One day, Lincoln and Stella call Lauren and Sean to them

Lincoln: Lauren, Sean, we need to talk about something

Sean: Did we do something wrong?

Stella: No, kids, it's about your Gramps

Lauren: What about him? You told us he died before we were born

Lincoln: Yeah, well, here's the thing.....

Sean: What do you mean, dad?

Stella: He's alive

Lauren: You lied to us?

Stella: No, Lauren, your father and I agreed to wait until your ten to tell you, now that you are, it's time to tell you the truth.

Lincoln: Kids. Your Gramps. Is in jail

Lauren and Sean: WHHAAA???

Sean: But why is he in jail. Did he try to kill someone

Lincoln: He was, drunk, and he tried to kill me

Stella: And he tried to falsely imprison me and your Nan

Lauren: I don't like this, I don't want to see him

Stella: I know Lauren, but he needs to know about you guys

Lincoln: Come on, I'm sure he's changed, as a person

Lauren and Sean: Ok *go to get ready*

Lincoln: I'm sure your dads changed

Stella: I hope your right Lincoln

Narrator: At the jail station

Stella: Um. Excuse me

Receptionist: Yes, what can I help you?

Stella: Me, and my family are here to see my dad. His name is Ken Zhau

Receptionist: One sec... *on computer* Ah. Yes. Louds, officer Sharp *Sam's younger brother, Simon* will escort you there.

Simon: Ok, come on Louds. Officer West, can you get Ken Zhau

West: Ok, on it *leaves*

Narrator: In the cell

West: Mr Zhau. Your family is here

Ken: Finally, it only took eleven years

West: Silence. Come on

Narrator: 5 minutes later, in the visiting room. There was a room, seperated by a desk, and reinforced glass, with phones.

Ken: *Sits on chair, seeing his daughter and son in law on the other side. Picks up phone* Stella, honey

Stella: *On phone* Yes dad?

Ken: I hope your ok *looks at Lincoln* He hasn't hurt you, has he?

Stella: No, he hasn't

Ken: *Chuckles* Hehehe. You know, I never got his name, hand the phone to him

Stella: *Hands phone to Lincoln*

Ken: Boy. What's your name?

Lincoln: Lincoln. Lincoln Loud

Ken: You know I don't like you, Lincoln

Lincoln: I know, but we've both changed in the time, let go

Ken: No, not until I... wait a minute. I saw a hair strand, you two, step aside for a minute

Lincoln and Stella: *Both nervously step aside, revealing Lauren and Sean to Ken

Ken: You have kids?

Stella: *Takes the phone* Yes dad, we have twins

Ken: Can I talk to them?

Lauren and Sean: *Sit on the chairs, very nervous*

Stella: *Hands the phone to the kids* Ok

Ken: Your my grandchildren?

Lauren: Yes. I'm Lauren

Sean: And I'm Sean

Ken: Well Lauren, Sean, let me ask you something. Do you love your dad?

Lauren and Sean: Yes

Ken: Well I don't, I was never a fan of the idea of your mum being with boys in general, romantic or not

Sean: But our mum and dad love each other, I don't get why you hate him?

Lauren: Yeah, why do you hate him?

Ken: Well. I thought your father would... let's say, "take advantage" of her

Lauren and Sean: *Concerningly look at their parents*

Lauren: Dad, did you do that?

Lincoln: What? No. Kids, I'd never do that to your mum. Hand me the phone

Sean: *Hands the phone*

Lincoln: Ken, how could you say that to my kids?

Ken: I just don't know what happened, I've been here in eleven years. Now listen, in four years I get a chance at parole, or an early release. I want a catch up on what I've missed. But Stella.

Stella: *Takes phone* Yes, dad

Ken: I'm sorry for everything I did to you and your mother, and I want to change

Stella: Ok, but if you want me to help, you need to promise me you'll change your opinion on Lincoln.

Ken: *Looks at Lincoln* No promises, but I will try

Stella: Ok. Goodbye dad

Ken: Bye Stella

Narrator: Back in the car

Stella: So kids, how was that?

Sean: I didn't like it

Lauren: Me neither

Lincoln: *Whispers* That wasn't a good idea

Stella: I know, but he had to know about them

Lincoln: Kids

Lauren and Sean: Yes dad?

Lincoln: You don't believe those things your Gramps said, do you?

Sean: Of course we don't

Lauren: We know you love each other

Stella: Well that's good to hear. Sorry we made you do this

Lauren and Sean: It's ok

Lincoln: Should we go home now?

Lauren and Sean: Yes please

Stella: Ok *starts car*
