Nora suggests that everyone spend a last weekend at the ranch house, which has to be sold to help the business. None of the children is interested in being cooped up with 'the family' for a weekend, though. Nora asks David to help her retrieve a special wood panel from the house -- it contains the growing-up marks she recorded for the last 20 years. Soon after they arrive, the rest of the family all drop in, having expected to have the place to themselves. It's at the dinner that Tommy and Julia let slip that Tommy is sterile and has been turned down by Kevin for a sperm donation.
