Mom?
Mom? I got something to show--
Whoa!
Huh?
Sorry, Ben. Just trying to perfect
that old pancake flip.
It's a life goal of mine.
That's okay, Dad. Uh, where's Mom?
Oh, she's, uh Oh, whoa!
Hold it there, young lady.
That was the one!
-[Ella] Gotta catch me first!

And who wants breakfast?
How does she do it?
Hey, Mom, I wanted to show
Mmm. Mmm! Oh, that is good.
-Oh.
-Mom! Wait up.
Can I show you something?
Uh, sure thing, baby.
In, uh, just a moment.
Super Ella!
[coughing]
Sorry, Mommy.
Oh, okay. Uh, make that two moments.
Now, what did you wanna show me?
Hmm. Has anyone
seen my glasses around here?
I would look for them myself,
but I can't see a thing.
Okay. With you in a sec, honey bun.
Um, I am sure I saw them
around here somewhere.
[man on TV] The following
community service announcement
is brought to you by
the city of Motown and Motown Man.
Quality time! Every family needs it.
Are you getting enough?
Whoa. Quality time?
I'm Motown Man.
And I'm taking a day off
from saving the world
to spend some quality time with my mom.
[grunting]
Quality time doesn't need to be
a lot of time.
That'd be quantity time.
But it has to be distraction-free.
Why not try spending some quality time
with your loved ones?
Ben, sorry, I was
I was super busy earlier.
Was there something you wanted to show me?
Yeah. Uh This.
Wow. This is incredible. I love it.
And I was thinking,
I'd like to spend some extra
Um, distraction-free
I mean, I want us
to spend some quality time together.
Well, of course, honey.
Um, Ben, you know, I'm sorry.
I've been so distracted.
I always love spending time with my guy.
So we can have a Mom and Son Day?
Yeah, I would love that, sweetie.
Great! So where should we go first?
Oh. You meant, uh, today.
Hey, peeps. I'm off to the museum.
Somebody tripped the alarm,
and I have to go help it up.
[laughing]
I'll swing by the bakery after.
See you later.
-Bye, Dad.
-Oh, uh, wait. Uh, Bill.
I have to tell you about
the new oven at the bakery. It's
It's kinda hard to control.
You know what? I can tell him later.
Today is Mom and Son Day.
Uh, uh Oh!
[grumbles]
Hey, Dad, would you be able
to keep an eye on Ella today?
Uh, sure. Sure thing.
What do you wanna do today, Ella baby?
You know what? I'm gonna have
another quick look for those glasses.
And then we can get going.
Okay. So, here's the plan.
First we can do some drawing together,
then the movies,
the swimming pool, and the ice cream shop.
I've already picked out all the flavors
and toppings we should get.
Then, there's the skate park. Uh Hmm
Actually, maybe we can swim first,
then watch a movie after.
Wow. That sure is a, um
a jam-packed day, Benny.
Oh, uh, is it too much?
No! No, no, no, no.
As long as I get to spend the day
with my little guy, I'm happy.
Benny, nothing could tear me away.

I forgot to tell Bill about the oven.
Mom! This is meant to be our day.
You're right. No, no, you're right.
Your dad can work it out.
This is more important.
Let's stick to the plan. Okay?

[yells]
[groans]
Ha-ha! Hey, Benja-matic.
I didn't know you could roll.
Uh Well, actually
[grunts]
I can't.
Ain't nothing to it,
but some grooving and gliding.
Follow me.
Like this? Whoa!
[yells]
[grunts]
Absolutely like that.
'Cept without the falling over.
[sighs] I'm working on it.
What, in disco's name, are you doing
out here on your own, anyway?
I was supposed
to go skating with Mom, but
[sighs] our itinerary changed.
Your i-ten-erary?
An itinerary.
You know, it's like a long list
of places you plan to visit,
so you can have fun.
That is, uh fun?
Well, it didn't exactly go to plan.
You're far out. You can't force fun.
It grooves on in when the music's right.
And I can feel it coming right now.
[Dancing Machine laughs]
[upbeat music playing]
[beat boxing]
[Ben] Whoa!
[laughing]
Woo-hoo!
Hooray, yeah!
-See? Time flies when you're having fun.
-Whoa!
[laughing]
[sighs]
[Ben] Too bad Mom can't be here.
Can I borrow this? Thanks.
Hey! Come back!
[panting]
Give that back.
My itinerary for Mom and Son Day
is in there.
Mmm!
Tastes like fun for the whole family.
What are you doing?
[whirring]
Huh?
[Bernadette] Ben?
Uh, Benny?
Hey, what are you doing out here?
I thought you were in the
Wait. What is that?
Uh, Uncle Rod built it.
It's a, um projector-matico-bot.
[oven alarm dings]
[chuckles] That was a fun day.
Yeah, it was.
I'm sorry it didn't go to plan, Benny.
Actually, I don't think we need a plan
or even a special day
to have quality time, Mom.
You know, I think you're right, Benny.
And I know something that might be
fun to do right now if you want.
Uh, honey? Quick question.
Are rock cakes meant to taste like rocks?
Um, no. Why?
Just asking.
For a friend in, uh, Botown.
It's okay if you need to go, Mom.
It's okay. Your dad can handle it.
It's fine.
