Summary: It's The Parent Trap, Inception-style. Arthur and Eames are divorced with twin sons (biologically Arthur's born to a surrogate mother). The boys, separated from infanthood, accidentally meet at camp. You know the rest.
"Tell me what to expect at the airport when I first arrive," Forrest says. "Will he be waiting for me?"
"I'm certain he will. We've never been apart for this long ... " Hugh's voice catches a bit. He hopes Forrest doesn't notice. "Father always said he had to fight so hard to keep me when I was a baby that he didn't want to ever send me away to school and such. I don't quite know how I convinced him to let me come all the way to America for six whole weeks."
When he risks a glance, he sees that Forrest is looking at the floor and scuffing his trainer toes.
"It's hard to imaging Dad being the one fighting him so hard. He's always so nice to everybody."
"Yeah, well, obviously he didn't try to take me away or anything, because I'm still living with my father and not yours. I think he's just always worried, because, well, we're not biological, you know, so he was afraid that your father ... that he ... that your dad would try to take me back."
"He wouldn't! He's not like that!"
