20 Things Jason McCallister Learnt From the Walker Family.
1. Never stand in the middle of a Walker food-fight as an apple to the head is surprisingly painful. However, the resulting apology sex almost makes up for the egg-sized lump to the forehead and the amused stares and questions from the Bishop. Almost.
2. Kevin’s aim really is as bad as Tommy claims. See above.
3. Don’t try to answer a question during Game Night: The Walkers vs. The Jones’ match number 27. It’s much more enjoyable - not to mention safer - to sit at the back of the room, eating popcorn with Robert and Julia, watching the madness unfold.
4. Never get drunk in front of Paige and Cooper. Not only is it setting a bad example - and somebody in this family should be showing them that the answer to all your problems is not at the bottom of a bottle of merlot - but they both have digital cameras. More importantly, they know how to use them. On the plus side, he can get as many discriminating photos as he wants, all for a one off payment of $19.99 and a trip to the zoo.
5. The Walkers - with the exception of Saul - have quite a poor taste in wine. He’s not really surprised, when you drink as much as the Walkers, most red wine probably has the same taste and effect as a glass of Pom.
6. Rebecca is most definitely a Walker. Not only can she fight with the best of them, but one glare sends Justin running to the pantry with a tub of Ben & Jerry’s.
7. Sarah has a surprisingly good singing voice. Unfortunately, none of her brothers inherited this talent and should be kept away from Karaoke machines at all costs.
8. So should Kitty. And Nora. Saul is allowed to sing Cole Porter songs - or Moon River if it’s a special occasion - but only once singer and audience alike have consumed copious amounts of Sambuca.
9. Nora makes the world’s best cookies. She really should have gone into the confectionary market - or soup production. He’s not been able to eat Campbell’s soup since that time he got the flu.
10. You are officially considered part of the Walker family once two or more of your partner’s siblings have caught you having sex. Sometimes, he really wishes they would knock instead of just using their key.
11. Kitty knows how to do a bloody good bitch-slap. Robert really doesn’t like to think about this one.
12. Tommy once got caught stealing sweets from Safeway. Kevin divulges this information along with a few more of Tommy’s secrets after yet another fight between the pair and a bottle of chardonnay.
13. Justin is terrified of clowns and it’s all Tommy and Kevin’s fault. They weren’t allowed to babysit again after that.
14. Kevin has seen every episode of Boston Legal and The Practice - not because he enjoys the plot or thinks one of the characters is hot, he just likes picking faults with it.
15. Saul, Julia, and Rebecca have little ‘tells’ that indicate they are struggling to hold their temper. Julia bites her bottom lip, Rebecca plays with her hair, and Saul taps his pen against his thigh. If the rest of the Walkers have tells he doesn’t know what they are- they’ve never held their temper in check long enough for him to notice.
16. Nora is a closet sci-fi fan; it was one of the things she and Rebecca bonded over when Justin first left. He bought Nora a C3P0 figurine from a stall at a church fundraiser the other week, it sits on the shelf in her bedroom in between the macaroni photo frame Paige made at school and the small kitten figurine Sarah gave her as a birthday present when she was five.
17. Kevin still has a teddy bear - a cute little black bear with white feet named Socks - whom Kevin likes to sleep with on the nights they don’t spend together. This explains why he barely raised an eyebrow the time he found Popsicle sitting on his bed.
18. Kevin and Sarah used to take ballroom lessons when they were younger. Much to the pair’s dismay Nora still has the pictures and one or two beastly dresses in the attic to prove it.
19. Ugly Betty is surprisingly addictive. It’s the only show all the Walkers watch religiously that doesn’t feature his brother, Kitty or that cute guy from Stargate they’re all so fond of.
20. Despite all their faults, the Walkers have their hearts in the right place and there is no other family he’d rather having fighting in his corner.
