Part 2 of the fifth day of retirement. Harold and Harriett finally make it to the garden and Axel’s house.
Harriett made one last attempt to connect with Harold before she wrote him off, but she had to bribe him. If he agreed to visit the community garden with her, then they could stop by their son’s house on the way back. But, before they could even get to that, Harriett had to get through one of his mean streaks.
Harriett tries twice more to get Harold out of the house. The last time is the most successful, but still unsuccessful.
On the second day of Harold’s retirement, Harriett took him to the museum. That excursion didn’t end well either.
Harriett Humphries finally gets her husband out of the house to enjoy retirement although he was always so reluctant to leave the house. They see one of their children in the park and have an unfortunate encounter that makes her question where she went wrong with them.
