                                              BARBARA:
Look at this stuff, God it's depressing.
                          ADAM (spoken):
You don't like this stuff? Barbara, this is our stuff...
                          BARBARA:
A shrine to the feelings we've been repressing.

                          ADAM (spoken):
Well, then maybe we should go.
                          BARBARA:
Half-finished projects, meaningless objects, plans we abandoned or quit. It's the stuff of our lives, and all of it's shit.
                          ADAM (spoken):
What? Barbara?!
                          BARBARA:
Books on computers, a "spin-your-own-yarn" kit?
                          ADAM (spoken):
Okay, that.... wasn't as much fun as I thought it would be.
                          BARBARA:
Home-brewed kombucha, that tasted like armpit!
                          ADAM (spoken):
We are not kombucha people, we didn't find that out.
                          BARBARA:
Take it and trash it, burn it and smash it. We have to adept to survive! We can be fighters with fire inside us. We're more than detritus, we're finally alive!
The Barbara you married, she is dead and buried! Six feet below. And now Barbara the doormat, she coming back in a new format! Time to let go! Say hello, to Barbara 2.0!
                          ADAM (spoken): 
I never used this... but then I felt bad that I never used it.
                          BARBARA (spoken): 
Break it.
                          ADAM:
*gasps*
Barbara you're right! I think I've been hiding-
                          BARBARA (spoken): 
I was too, I don't even like pottery!
                          ADAM:
Stuck out of sight, like my un-used aluminum siding.
                          BARBARA (spoken):
We are NOT aluminum siding people!
                          ADAM:
Tragic and static, trapped in this attic! Now Adam is shedding his skin! No more excuses, we're no longer useless. We've got nothing to lose, we can finally begin!
The new Adam is wiser, the old one's fertiliser. It's time to let go! Say hallo!
                          BARBARA:
I'm tired of doors to better or more. We could just walk, but we've done that before. What we cannot ignore, is Lydia needs us.
                          ADAM:
That must be the reason she sees us.
                          BARBARA:
Adam, I wanna stay, she needs people who won't tun away! Friends who don't stop at problems or obstacles. Not a house, but a home!
                          BOTH:
Ready set, let's go!
Time to let go. 'Cause the new upgraded Maitlands, are charging out the gates and they're gonna unload! Say hallo...
To Maitlands 2.0!
Maitlands 2.0!
Maitlands 2.0!
