Elliott tells his mom he’s started dating Bloodhound, and he’s nervous bringing them home, and they’re nervous because they never actually had to do the whole “meet the parent(s)” thing, but when it comes down to it they sit and talk and it’s actually nice, Evelyn’s sweet and makes the same bad jokes as her kid, but it’s comforting.
And then before they leave, Evelyn says “I will remember to set another place at the table from now on.”
Bloodhound barely makes it to the car before they start crying. Elliott barely made it out the door.
