| Summary: Richard's father-in-law is deteriorating under the effects of Alzheimer's disease. Richard is having a hard time coping. He begins to search for some kind of meaning in life, while his wife and son turn to "aura cleansing" and rubbing magic stones for emotional relief. Richard thinks they're both nuts, and wants to find peace in something other than the usual life remedies. | |

Excerpt: This is just a sample. Whole portions of the sections have been excluded, but this should be enough to give a general feeling of the overall skit.
Zach: (Looking to Richard) Hey, dad you look like you could use some tranquillity yourself. Richard: Oh, is that what that was? No thanks! Lizzie: Well, Richard, Zach and I are just trying to "remember our spirits." Richard: Now I know you’ve been watching too much Oprah! Zach: Oh come on dad. It wouldn’t hurt you to at least try something. Here, maybe this is more your style. (Zach hands Richard a stone) Richard: A rock? Zach: It’s a Grosseller stone. It represents the spirit of the earth: the oneness of the universe. Richard: It’s a rock. Zach: Work with me here. When you’re feeling negative energy, you’re supposed to rub the stone and open up your mind, and let the spirit envelop you and soothe your soul. Richard: How is a rock going to soothe my soul? Zach: Because dad, it’s part of the life energy that flows through all of us. Richard: Life energy? You mean, like God? Zach: Sort of. You see, dad, we’re all God. Richard: Huh?
