Love Is in the Air, Part 1 of 2

Chris: Hi, this is Chris. Welcome to Adventures in Odyssey.
Eugene Meltsner: Eugene Meltsner here, inviting you to join today's assemblage of characters and myself for an extended period of discovery, imagination, and exhilaration—of excitement, that is. Welcome to Adventures in Odyssey. Is Connie here?
Connie Kendall: Ow! You want to be careful around her.
Eugene Meltsner: Katrina, hug me.
Jason Whittaker: So love's in the air, huh?
Connie Kendall: I think I came at the wrong time.
Jason Whittaker: What are you doing?
Eugene Meltsner: Rubbing my head. I'm so confused. Well, I think that's much better. Farewell, faithful mustache, thou symbol of transition to the new moi. Farewell, farewell, farewell. Now to the aftershave lotion.
Connie Kendall: Jason! Ow, sorry. Are you all right?
Jason Whittaker: Yeah, I'm okay. I just didn't hear you coming.
Connie Kendall: I was just wondering how much longer before you have this freezer fixed.
Jason Whittaker: I'm not sure. Why?
Connie Kendall: Because you've had it turned off for a while and the ice cream is starting to look a little soggy. I was going to move the containers to the big freezer in the kitchen.
Jason Whittaker: That's probably a good idea. I don't know much about the thermostats on these things, and until I figure it out, even if it isn't true. But yeah, go ahead and move the ice cream into the big freezer for the time being.
Connie Kendall: Okay. Thanks. Do you want anything while I'm in the kitchen? Like lemonade, juice, coffee?
Jason Whittaker: No, that's okay. I'm all right for now.
Connie Kendall: Just so you're sure. Shout if you change your mind!
Jason Whittaker: Huh? Connie, I can't hear you. What'd you say? Now, where'd I put that wrench? Oh, there it is.
Eugene Meltsner: Greetings, Jason.
Jason Whittaker: Ouch! What are you doing down there?
Eugene Meltsner: Apart from getting a concussion, trying to fix the temperature gauge on this freezer. It's running too cold. Keeps turning our ice cream to solid rock. Are you in need of assistance?
Connie Kendall: I'm helping him, Eugene. Don't worry.
Eugene Meltsner: In that case, I'll punch in, to borrow the colloquialism, and set to work.
Connie Kendall: Wait a minute. There's something different about you.
Eugene Meltsner: Oh, is there?
Jason Whittaker: Did he do something?
Eugene Meltsner: Well, what do you think I did?
Connie Kendall: I don't know. Did you get a haircut?
Eugene Meltsner: Nope.
Connie Kendall: Buy a new vest?
Eugene Meltsner: No.
Jason Whittaker: What did he do?
Connie Kendall: I'm trying to find out. Come on, Eugene. Why do you look so different?
Eugene Meltsner: It would be unfair to simply spell out the obvious to you.
Jason Whittaker: New glasses, maybe?
Connie Kendall: You think so?
Jason Whittaker: I have no idea. I can't see them and I don't want to crawl out again. Eugene, just tell her what it is.
Eugene Meltsner: One more guess.
Connie Kendall: I don't know. Just one more.
Eugene Meltsner: Try!
Connie Kendall: But I don't know!
Jason Whittaker: Just try, Connie. You're dripping ice cream on my leg.
Connie Kendall: Oh, sorry. Well, is it—I know, I know! You shaved off your mustache!
Eugene Meltsner: Precisely. Shave it off? Pluck it off would be more like it.
Jason Whittaker: How droll.
Connie Kendall: Hang on. Then that must mean Katrina's coming back to town?
Eugene Meltsner: Perhaps. Her latest correspondence indicated that the—
Connie Kendall: Latest correspondence? So you have been writing.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, yes, and she indicated that she might come to visit this weekend.
Connie Kendall: That's great, Eugene. Wow, this will be the first time you two have seen each other since you became a Christian, right? Unless you've been sneaking off to see her, too.
Eugene Meltsner: No, just letter writing.
Connie Kendall: You must be really excited.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, I confess to a certain feeling of exhilaration, yes.
Jason Whittaker: And I confess to a certain feeling of cold wetness on my leg. The ice cream's still dripping, Connie.
Connie Kendall: Oh, sorry. I'm really happy for you, Eugene. I mean, now that you're a Christian, you two can, well, you know.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, let's not be hasty, Miss Kendall. It would be dangerous to assume anything at this point.
Connie Kendall: Whatever you say.
Jason Whittaker: So love's in the air, huh?
Eugene Meltsner: I beg your pardon?
Jason Whittaker: I said, love is in the air. See? Never know how things will work out there, Eugene. Seems like only yesterday you were doing the old "woe is me" routine, trying to grow a mustache, and now look at you.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, I would prefer not to overplay these events. Speaking man to man, as it were, I'd say her letters have been more sisterly in their tone than, say, similar to odes of love.
Jason Whittaker: Sorry, Eugene, I can't hear you. What'd you say?
Eugene Meltsner: I'm saying only that if love is in the air, someone other than I may be breathing it.
Connie Kendall: You know, Eugene, you could help me rearrange the stock in the big freezer if you—oh, hello. May I help you?
Tasha Forbes: I'm looking for Jason Whittaker.
Connie Kendall: Jason! Jason!
Jason Whittaker: What?
Connie Kendall: Someone here to see you.
Eugene Meltsner: A woman.
Jason Whittaker: A woman to see me? Wow. Surprise, surprise.
Tasha Forbes: Hi, Jason.
Jason Whittaker: Hello, Tasha.

Tasha Forbes: Well, look at you. Overalls and a ratchet set. A small-town jack-of-all-trades.
Jason Whittaker: And master of none. It's really good to see you. What brings you to Odyssey?
Tasha Forbes: I came to visit you. What else?
Jason Whittaker: I'm honored. Oh, introductions. Sorry. Tasha, I'd like you to meet Connie Kendall.
Connie Kendall: Hi.
Tasha Forbes: Hi.
Jason Whittaker: And Eugene Meltsner.
Eugene Meltsner: Greetings.
Tasha Forbes: Nice to meet you.
Jason Whittaker: They're my co-workers here at Whit's End.
Connie Kendall: So, how do you guys know each other?
Jason Whittaker: Well, we're friends who used to work together.
Connie Kendall: Oh, where was that?
Tasha Forbes: Oh, a boring government work. We were both analysts, you know, white lab coats and pages and pages of manuals.
Connie Kendall: Sounds fascinating.
Jason Whittaker: Yes, pretty boring.
Connie Kendall: Sounds like it.
Jason Whittaker: So why don't I show you around the place, Tasha? That is, unless you have to be somewhere.
Tasha Forbes: I've already checked into the hotel, so I'm open to whatever you have in mind.
Jason Whittaker: Well, there's an offer I can't refuse. Come on.
Tasha Forbes: It was nice meeting you both.
Eugene Meltsner: It was my pleasure.
Connie Kendall: Same here.
Jason Whittaker: So when did you get in? You should have called me and let me know. I would have met you at the airport.
Connie Kendall: I don't like her.
Eugene Meltsner: What? But you just met her. How could you know so soon whether you like her or not?
Connie Kendall: Call it women's intuition.
Eugene Meltsner: Oh, of course. That catch-all expression women use to keep from having to explain themselves.
Connie Kendall: She's just not Jason's type, that's all.
Eugene Meltsner: Jason's type? You mean you think there's some kind of—
Connie Kendall: Well, Eugene, she didn't come to Odyssey for our water-skiing, if you know what I mean.
Eugene Meltsner: Miss Kendall, you astound me. How could you possibly assume anything about her or her motives?
Connie Kendall: You have eyes. Didn't you see her?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, and I saw a very beautiful woman who on first impression seemed very charming and sophisticated.
Connie Kendall: Oh, sure. Get fooled by the obvious. You men are all alike.
Eugene Meltsner: Connie, am I detecting a hint of jealousy in this conversation?
Connie Kendall: Jealousy? Me? You're kidding, right? Why would I be jealous of her? I mean, Jason's my boss and older than me, for one thing. Jealousy, that's ridiculous. I have to take care of this ice cream before it melts.
Eugene Meltsner: Sometimes one never sees the thing right under one's proverbial nose.
Jason Whittaker: So it's really good to see you, Tasha.
Tasha Forbes: Ditto. It's good to see you, too. We missed you at Donovan's retirement party. Everybody kept asking if you were coming.
Jason Whittaker: Well, with everything going on here, I just couldn't get away. So why are you here? I mean, really?
Tasha Forbes: After Donovan retired, I looked around and suddenly realized I didn't really know anybody at the agency anymore. The place has changed a lot. It's just not the same without Donovan and you. So I decided to take you up on your offer to come visit, just to get away for a while and think about my future.
Jason Whittaker: Well, if ever there was a place to sort out your thoughts, it's Odyssey. Tell you what. Let me call Jack and ask him to fill in for me while you and I see the sights.
Eugene Meltsner: I think I've got it. Hello?
Jack Allen: Eugene, is that you down there?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, Mr. Allen.
Jack Allen: What are you doing?
Eugene Meltsner: Rubbing my head. I've just fixed the thermostat on this freezer. What pray tell are you doing here?
Jack Allen: Well, Jason called and asked me to fill in for him while he showed a friend around town. He shaved his mustache off, didn't he?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, he did. Thank you for noticing.
Jack Allen: Was there a reason for the change?
Eugene Meltsner: To be forthright, indeed. Katrina is expected to return to Odyssey sometime this weekend, perhaps this very day.
Jack Allen: Really? Well, it'll be good to see her again. Indeed. Yes. Is Connie here?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, but you'll want to be careful around her.
Jack Allen: I will?
Eugene Meltsner: She's in a mood.
Jack Allen: What kind of mood?
Eugene Meltsner: Frankly, she's been acting slightly jealous.
Jack Allen: Jealous?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes. I believe she has a small crush on—Wait, here she comes.
Connie Kendall: Hi, Jack. What are you doing here?
Jack Allen: Helping Jason a little, that's all. An old friend came into town and—
Connie Kendall: Yeah, Tasha. We met her. Are they gone?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, they departed while you were rearranging the freezer.
Connie Kendall: Oh.
Jack Allen: Yeah, I'm here instead.
Eugene Meltsner: I believe I've repaired this display freezer. The thermostat had slipped out of its calibrations and I've corrected it to factory specifications.
Connie Kendall: I'm sure Jason will be very happy.
Eugene Meltsner: If he is, then I'm satisfied.
Jack Allen: Good, good. I don't suppose you've had a chance to work on the kids' radio program then, have you?
Eugene Meltsner: Oh, no, sir. I've been slightly sidetracked. I'll get to it right away.
Jack Allen: Oh, there's no rush. I was just wondering.
Eugene Meltsner: Wonder no more. I, Eugene Meltsner, am on the job. We'll discuss that other matter later.
Jack Allen: Sure, sure.
Connie Kendall: Other matter?
Jack Allen: Something he wanted to talk to me about.
Connie Kendall: Bet I know what it is.
Jack Allen: Do you?
Connie Kendall: Yeah, Tasha. Jason's so-called friend. You know anything about her?
Jack Allen: No. Only that she's a former co-worker.
Connie Kendall: Yeah, that's what Jason said. But there's more to it, isn't there?
Jack Allen: More? How?
Connie Kendall: I think she's here to snag him.
Jack Allen: I'm completely lost. Snag Eugene?
Connie Kendall: No, Jason!
Jack Allen: But what does this have to do with Eugene?
Connie Kendall: Well, he thinks I'm wrong.
Jack Allen: Wrong about what?
Connie Kendall: About women's intuition. But you see, I've been thinking about it and it's women's intuition that told me that he shaved off his mustache because Katrina's coming back.
Jack Allen: I'm still confused.
Connie Kendall: Didn't you know that Katrina's coming to visit?
Jack Allen: That I knew.
Connie Kendall: Well, when I realized his mustache was gone, then I knew it was because of Katrina.
Jack Allen: That's not intuition, Connie. See, he grew it after she left, so it makes sense he'd shave it off when she came back. But I still don't understand how all this connects.
Connie Kendall: It connects. Because he either wanted to talk to you about Tasha or Katrina. My guess is that he's probably feeling nervous about seeing her again. Maybe I should go back to the studio and talk to him. A feminine perspective might calm his fears. That's where I'll be if you need me.
Jack Allen: Sure. Okay. I'm so confused.
Eugene Meltsner: Ask and it will be given to you. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened for you. The one who asks will always—
Connie Kendall: Eugene?
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, Connie.
Connie Kendall: Boy, that scared me for a second. I thought Jason was really in here. He's really good at reading the Bible, isn't he?
Eugene Meltsner: Oh, yes, after the seventh try.
Connie Kendall: So, what's this episode about?
Eugene Meltsner: Well, I believe Mr. Allen wants to record portions of the Sermon on the Mount. He and I will put all the pieces together later.
Connie Kendall: Oh. Well, I came in to talk to you for a minute about something else.
Eugene Meltsner: If you want to discuss Jason and Tasha again, I don't believe there's anything else to say.
Connie Kendall: No.
Eugene Meltsner: Oh?
Connie Kendall: I want to talk about you and Katrina.
Eugene Meltsner: Oh. Well, I'm not sure there's anything else to say about that, either.
Connie Kendall: Don't be so cagey. I know how hopeless you are about things like this, so I figured I better check to see what you're going to do.
Eugene Meltsner: Do about what?
Connie Kendall: When she gets here. You're feeling a little nervous, right?
Eugene Meltsner: Well, to some degree, yes.
Connie Kendall: And you keep going over and over in your mind what you're going to do when she walks through the door.
Eugene Meltsner: I beg your pardon?
Connie Kendall: Do you wave from the other side of the room? Do you rush over and shake her hand? Do you kiss her on the cheek? What'll you do?
Eugene Meltsner: Oh. Well, you've brought up a good point. I hadn't thought about it.
Connie Kendall: See? I'm on pins and needles. What should I do when she arrives?
Eugene Meltsner: Well, I think, all things considered, you should hug her.
Connie Kendall: Hug her? Not a big sloppy hug, but, you know, a delicate "it's good to see you" kind of hug.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, I'm not so sure about the difference. I thought a hug was a hug regardless.
Connie Kendall: No, they aren't. Are all kisses the same? Well, maybe to you, but to most human beings, they aren't. Hugs have to be given the same consideration.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, what then is a delicate "it's good to see you" kind of a hug like?
Connie Kendall: Well, it's—you better stand up.
Eugene Meltsner: What?
Connie Kendall: Stand up and I'll show you.
Eugene Meltsner: Are you sure this is appropriate?
Connie Kendall: Give me a break. This is a standard "it's good to see you" kind of hug. There's nothing inappropriate about it between friends. Now, okay, I'm Katrina. Hug me.
Eugene Meltsner: There, how's that?
Connie Kendall: You really are a wet fish, aren't you? Okay, I'll be you and you be Katrina. This is the "it's good to see you" kind of hug. Come here. Okay.
Katrina Shanks: Oh! I'm terribly sorry.
Eugene Meltsner: Katrina!
Katrina Shanks: Oh, hi. Obviously, I've come at a bad time. Excuse me.
Eugene Meltsner: No! Wait! Katrina! Katrina, come back! Oh, boy.
Chris: Want to contact us about the episodes you're hearing? Visit our website at adventuresinodyssey.com or talk to someone at Focus on the Family. Call 1-800-A-FAMILY. With a parent's permission, of course. We always love hearing from you.
Jack Allen: Leaving so soon, Katrina?
Katrina Shanks: Yes, I think I came at the wrong time.
Eugene Meltsner: Katrina, wait! Wait! It's not what it looked like.
Katrina Shanks: It looked like two people hugging.
Eugene Meltsner: Well, that's because it was. But what I mean to say—
Katrina Shanks: Two people hugging? What two people?
Eugene Meltsner: Me and Eugene. I'm so sorry, Katrina. I—
Katrina Shanks: You and Eugene? I'm really confused.
Eugene Meltsner: Please, it's a simple explanation. Nothing to be upset about.
Katrina Shanks: I'm not upset, Eugene. I simply feel embarrassed to have walked in at such an inopportune moment.
Connie Kendall: Well, it wasn't inopportune. We were rehearsing, Katrina.
Katrina Shanks: For kids' radio? It makes perfect sense. You were rehearsing a hug for a radio drama.
Eugene Meltsner: No, not that. It's quite silly, as you'll see when I explain.
Katrina Shanks: Are you sure you wouldn't rather talk about this privately?
Eugene Meltsner: I'd love to talk to Katrina privately, but we don't have to with this. It's all very straightforward.
Katrina Shanks: I believe you, Eugene. Calm down. I'm not upset.
Eugene Meltsner: But I'm upset because I know how it must have looked to you. If I saw you hugging someone else, I'd draw the wrong conclusions as well.
Katrina Shanks: But I haven't drawn any conclusions.
Jason Whittaker: Hi, guys. What's this, a staff meeting? Katrina! Hey, it's good to see you!
Katrina Shanks: Hello, Jason. Now, that's an "it's good to see you" hug.
Eugene Meltsner: Oh, brother.
Jason Whittaker: Welcome back. Hey, I'd like you to meet Tasha. Tasha, this is Katrina Shanks. She's a friend of Eugene's who's been gone for a while.
Tasha Forbes: Hi.
Katrina Shanks: Greetings. Well, I really should be going.
Eugene Meltsner: No, don't. Not until we've cleared this up.
Katrina Shanks: This is crazy. There's nothing to clear up.
Jason Whittaker: Clear up? Connie and Eugene were hugging in the kids' radio studio and we're about to find out why.
Tasha Forbes: Really?
Connie Kendall: It's not what you think.
Eugene Meltsner: It's not what anybody thinks. Connie was merely showing me how to hug you when you arrived. But you arrived!
Katrina Shanks: Eugene, this whole scene is unnecessary.
Eugene Meltsner: But it's not. I want you to know that there is absolutely nothing between Connie and myself but a basic, sometimes adversarial friendship. There can't be. I've been waiting for you and she has a crush on Jason.
Connie Kendall: Honestly! It was as innocent as—it could be. Oops.
Jason Whittaker: Nicely done, Eugene.
Connie Kendall: I never said I have a crush on Jason. I don't know where you get this stuff. The idea of a crush never even—I mean—Thanks a lot, Eugene! Wait, Connie!
Katrina Shanks: I'm staying in Melanie's dorm, Eugene. Call me later, okay?
Eugene Meltsner: But, Katrina, wait! Oh, no.
Jason Whittaker: Look, we just stopped by to say that we're going to the zoo in Connelsville if whoever's left would close up the shop tonight.
Jack Allen: I'll do it.
Jason Whittaker: Thanks. By the way, Jack, this is Tasha. Tasha, Jack. See you later.
Tasha Forbes: Hi. Bye.
Jack Allen: Nice meeting you. Well, I think that went as well as could be expected.
Eugene Meltsner: Would a nervous breakdown be suitable at this time?
Tasha Forbes: This is wonderful, Jason. Thank you. I haven't been to the zoo for years.
Jason Whittaker: Neither have I. So, Connie has a crush on you. Have you decided what you're going to do about it?
Jason Whittaker: Do? I haven't thought about it. Now, Eugene might be wrong. Though—
Tasha Forbes: Though?
Jason Whittaker: Well, she has been acting a little funny lately. Nah, Eugene got it wrong. Connie doesn't have a crush on me. I mean, that wouldn't make any sense.
Tasha Forbes: Don't be so naive. It makes plenty of sense. She's young and probably itching to do something with her life beyond hanging out at Whit's End. You come along, good-looking, reckless—
Jason Whittaker: Reckless?
Tasha Forbes: Yeah, reckless. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. If I were her, I'd have a crush on you.
Jason Whittaker: Oh, really?
Tasha Forbes: In fact, I did have a crush on you when we first started working together at the agency.
Jason Whittaker: That was then. How about now?
Tasha Forbes: Don't be coy, Jason. You know exactly how I feel.
Jason Whittaker: I'm not being coy. Look, Tasha, we've been friends for a long time. There's always been this kind of chemistry between you and me. We've talked about love. But where are we now? Right this minute, right here at the Connelsville Zoo?
Tasha Forbes: Well, I—
Jason Whittaker: Come on, spell it out, kid, or risk being thrown to the hippopotamus.
Tasha Forbes: Under threat of torture? Well, I have to say I love you. Always have, probably always will. I've dated other men, I've tried relationships, but I keep looking for you in their faces. So I thought, why settle for cheap imitations? Maybe it's time to check out the real thing.
Jason Whittaker: You have such a way with words.
Tasha Forbes: Thank you. Now it's your turn. Be honest. I can take it.
Jason Whittaker: Well, if we had this conversation a year or two ago, I think I would have bolted and run away. But everything's changed for me since I came to Odyssey. I feel a peace here like I've never felt before. But somehow it's still not complete. There's still something missing. And standing with you here next to the elephants, I realize what it is.
Tasha Forbes: What?
Jason Whittaker: It's you, Tasha. Yeah. You are what's missing in my life. So to be completely honest, I'd have to say I love you, too. The only question now is, what are we going to do about it?
Tasha Forbes: Well, what do you recommend?
Jason Whittaker: The only thing that makes sense is marriage.
Tasha Forbes: Jason!
Jason Whittaker: Yeah. How about it, Tasha? Will you marry me?
Eugene Meltsner: Katrina.
Katrina Shanks: Hello, Eugene.
Eugene Meltsner: Thanks for meeting me. Were you early or am I late?
Katrina Shanks: I came a little early.
Eugene Meltsner: Good. I see you weren't able to get our usual table 37.
Katrina Shanks: No, they didn't remember me.
Eugene Meltsner: Outrageous. It hasn't been that long.
Katrina Shanks: It feels like years.
Eugene Meltsner: Yes, I suppose it has. So much has happened. Katrina.
Katrina Shanks: Yes?
Eugene Meltsner: I'm sorry about that scene at Whit's End. It really wasn't as incriminating as it appeared to be. And of course, I made it all the worse. You must believe me when I say that Connie and I are only friends. The hug you saw was just as we described. She was trying to show me how not to make a fool of myself when you arrived, which is exactly what I did. I'm sorry.
Katrina Shanks: Eugene, Eugene, calm down. It's all right. I honestly didn't feel upset or jealous.
Eugene Meltsner: Didn't you?
Katrina Shanks: No.
Eugene Meltsner: May I ask why not?
Katrina Shanks: I beg your pardon?
Eugene Meltsner: Well, to have been apart for as long as we have under such peculiar circumstances, and then finally we're reunited and I'm embracing someone else. Are you saying you didn't even feel a twinge of something?
Katrina Shanks: We're adults, Eugene. Granted, it was embarrassing and awkward, but I knew the truth would be known and it would work out the way everything works out, actually.
Eugene Meltsner: And dare I ask, how are things working out for us?
Katrina Shanks: Do we have to answer that question right at this moment?
Eugene Meltsner: We don't have to, but why wouldn't we?
Katrina Shanks: Since I have to complete my term at the university and can't return to Odyssey on a full-time basis, there really isn't any reason to rush forward, is there?
Eugene Meltsner: No, I suppose not, but I hadn't thought of it as rushing per se.
Katrina Shanks: Well, Brandon says that romantic relationships, particularly between new Christians, can be detrimental to healthy growth.
Eugene Meltsner: Brandon? I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with him. Is he a Christian author?
Katrina Shanks: No, he's a very mature and understanding Christian at the university. He's in charge of the student mission fellowship.
Eugene Meltsner: Impressive. You've been seeing a lot of each other?
Katrina Shanks: Well, we study our Bibles together.
Eugene Meltsner: Together as part of a group or just the two of you?
Katrina Shanks: Just the two of us.
Eugene Meltsner: I see.
Katrina Shanks: Eugene, look. When I left, I had no idea what the future held for either one of us. For all I knew, you would never accept Jesus. You said as much yourself. I was a wreck. Brandon helped me a lot.
Eugene Meltsner: Now, I know I'm being terribly dense, but are you dating Brandon?
Katrina Shanks: Yes, Eugene. I'm dating Brandon.
Chris: It looks like we've hit another snag with Eugene and Katrina. They sure had their share. And I wonder if Tasha will say yes to Jason's proposal and how Connie will react when she finds out. Well, like always, the only way we'll find out is to keep listening. Meanwhile, I'd love to hear what you think about Adventures in Odyssey or anything else you want to write to me about. Just send your letter to Adventures in Odyssey, Colorado Springs, Colorado, 80995. Or in Canada, write to Box 9800, Vancouver, B.C., V6B 4G3. And don't forget to ask about how to get your own copy of today's episode. It's called "Love Is in the Air." Adventures in Odyssey's a presentation of Focus on the Family. "Love Is in the Air" was written and directed by Paul McCusker. Our production engineer was Dave Arnold, and our executive producer is Chuck Bolte. And I'm Chris. Hoping you'll join us again next time for more Adventures in Odyssey.
