(A rental house comes into view, with a small, blue car in the driveway. The TWINS exchange excited yet worried looks, wondering what is going on. They enter the house, and find GRANDMA inside the kitchen.)
*ALEX: Grandma!
*GRANDMA: Alex, Conner! Wow, it's like you two have grown a foot since I last saw you!
*CONNER: Grandma...
*GRANDMA: What's wrong with a grandmother coming to visit her two favorite grandkids on their birthday?
(Both twins laugh, because they're her only grandkids. They then sober up quickly.)
CONNER: Hey! It's our birthday!
ALEX: Whoa, who'd have thought?
ALEX & CONNER: It's been over a year...
GRANDMA: You guys forgot?
*CONNER: Maybe...
ALEX: It's been over a year since Dad died, just before our eleventh birthday...
CONNER: It's kind of easy to forget your birthday in all of this sorrow...
GRANDMA: Understandable.
ALEX: How could we have forgotten?
(GRANDMA quickly hurries out, coming back inside with three boxes for each twin.)
*GRANDMA: Here.
*ALEX: What? No, we can't accept anything...
*GRANDMA: Open them.
(The TWINS take turns opening presents, mainly shirts for CONNER and books for ALEX.)
*GRANDMA: And one more...
(She hands them a big, green book- the same one she read to them in the opening song.)
ALEX: All of the memories...
CONNER: It's the book...
GRANDMA: It's The Land of Stories, you're right. It's yours now.
*ALEX & CONNER: No, it's yours! We can't just take this...
(GRANDMA ignores them, going off to make cake. The twins open it up to the title page, and see a note.)
*GRANDMA: To Alex and Conner, and the worlds they have yet to discover.
