I will have you know that I have not built a pillow fort in over 15 years. [But she's grinning while rearranging the couch cushions.]

All the more reason to do so. My new therapist says it's good to express myself. And my idea of expressing myself is to build a fort that will pierce the heavens.

You're seeing a new therapist? [She's actually really glad to hear that. She hands Tony a pillow for him to use.]

Yeah. Dr. Malloy. He's interesting. We're still working on the shit that was my childhood.

[He carefully arranges the pillow to be a weight bearing pillow.]

I think that's great. I'm glad that you're going. Is it going well so far?

[She straightens a cushion so it will be a sturdy wall.]

Sort of. He wants me to be more open and honest and I have to explain to him that four generations of Starks have strived to be the opposite of that. So that'll take a bit.

[He pauses in construction.] Where should we put the door to the fort?

I am so proud of you. [And if she wasn't on the other side of the fort, she'd kiss him.]

Uhhhh...facing the actual door?

I'm working on it. I've gotten over a lot of my daddy issues after I found out all the shit my grandfather was into.

...why not facing the TV so we can watch it from in there?

Did you want to share? Or is that between you and your therapist? I don't want to pry.

...that is an excellent idea. You are a genius.

I don't want to scar you for life. Just know my Dad genuinely cared and was as caring as he knew how to be.

Thank you. I minored in Pillow Fort Construction.

Well I would say that is good news.

That doesn't surprise me. Is there anything you can't do?

I have yet to fill up a conference room with balls from a ball pit. The key word here is yet.

If anyone could get away with it, it would be you.

It will be amazing. And worth every penny.

I'll have to stop by the office to see it. If you don't mind, that is. [She sets up another cushion on the top of the fort.]

Ball pits are only fun with multiple people involved. Same as couch forts. What're we naming the fort, anyway?

[Carol takes a moment to look over it.] I would be willing to name it the Enterprise, if you want.

I was thinking the Tetragrammaton.

I don't know what that is, but if you like it, we can name it that.

Obscure sci-fi reference that sounds cool. That's all we need, really.

Done. I'm sold.

This is why we work well together. Now: what do we watch in the fort first?

Star Wars.

I was hoping for something more kiddy. We are doing something juvenile. Don't you have a favorite animated movie?

Beauty and the Beast. That's my favorite.
