Wendy: What story?
Jack: Hold on, theres this crazy driver behind us
Wendy: Answer me Jack, what story?!
Jack: It doesn't concern you!
Wendy: How come you tell Alex and not me!
Jack: Because I-

The car from behind speeded up and hit them from the side. The car went flying in the air. Then it rolled down hill and reached another road. Few minutes later, Jack woke up. He quickly got out of the car.

Jack: ALEX!!
Alex: *coughs* Help..
Jack: DONT WORRY I'LL GET YOU OUT

Jack tried to get back in the car. But the hole got smaller. He saw a gap by the back seats. Half of his body went inside. Jack got Alex out of the car seat and got him out the car. Then they heard sirens

Alex: *cries* My arm hurts
Jack: It's probably fractured. Let me see if I can get your mom

He went to the other side of the car and found half of Wendys dead body sticking out from the car

Jack: No c'mon Wendy! You're not dead! You still need to see Alex grow up!

He checked her pulse....but there was nothing. The ambulance then arrived and took them to the hospital. Jack wounds were treated, so he went to see Alex

Jack: Hey champ
Alex: Hey, are you ok?
Jack: Yeah im fine. Hows your arm?
Doc: His arm was fractured, so theres nothing you should worry about. It will heal in a few weeks. But can I talk to you outside Mr. Jackson
Jack: Sure

Doc: Now about you're wife....we did everything we could. But he wounds were very bad. Glass and different material went inside her wounds and hit some of her vital organs.....im sorry for your loss
Jack: Thank you for trying

Alex: Dad, hows mom
Jack: *sits next to him* Well....she's in a better place now...
Alex: You mean...*tears up*
Jack: *nods*
Alex: *cries*

Jacob: How you holding up?
Ash: *shrugs*
Jacob: Ash you've been inside my room for weeks now..im worried for you
Ash: Its the same thing you did with mom...

Jacob: *cries*
Ash: Jacob....you cant be in here forever with the lights off...its already been a month..
Jacob: Go away...
Ash: This isnt healthy you need to go out..
Jacob: I SAID GO AWAY *eyes turn red*
Ash:...

Ash: So leave me alone
Jacob: Look at Jacky....it looks like shes starting to get worried too..
Ash: Take her to the park or something then
Jacob: Thats not what I meant. But I guess i'll take her out

Jacob: *calls Skyler*
Skyler: *answers* What's up
Jacob: You have to make Ash go outside. Its unhealthy for her to stay inside. I don't want her to do the same things I did
Skyler: Okay, we'll go to the arcade. She cant resist the arcade
Jacob: Im gonna take Jacky out today. You have the key right?
Skyler: Yup
Jacob: Alright

Jack: Is it done?
FD: Yes it is

He gave Jack a jar with Wendy's ashes

Jack: Thank you
FD: Here is the bill
Jack: *eyes widen* $300,000?
FD: Is there a problem?
Jack: No...no. I'll have that paid in 2-3 months at least
FD: Ok then. You may leave

Then Jack went back to the hospital

Jack: You ready to go?
Alex: Yeah! Im not a big fan of hospitals
Jack: *chuckles* C'mon, we'll go to my house. No more living in that small apartment
Alex: Cool!

Skyler: *barges in the door* Lets go Ash!!!!
Ash: What...?

Ash: I dont wanna go....
Skyler: *gasp* You dont wanna go to the arcade?!?!?!
Ash: No...
Skyler: Well too bad! Get dressed!
Ash: No...
Skyler: Fine then...i'll just drag you then! *grabs her arms*
Ash: But my clothes..
Skyler: They look fine, lets go! *drags her*

Alex: Dad, can we go somewhere? Im tired of being in the house all day
Jack: Where do you wanna go?

Alex: Ok dad

Skyler: *gasp* Ooooooo, The crawling mummies game! Lets play!
Ash: You go....i'll stay here

Jack turned around, and saw Ash. He just stared at her. Then Ash turned around and saw him. Her face turned gloomy once again and she started tearing up

 Her face turned gloomy once again and she started tearing up
