Hmm? What? Ant-Family
Hope wakes up around 7 am, to Cassie shaking her.
"What is it, Cassie?" She wipes the sleep from her eyes.
"I made you something.." Cassie smiles.
She moves away from the bedside table to show a tray with heart shaped toast, some undercooked eggs, and a glass of milk.
"Oh, thank you!..why?" Hope smiles.
"...you do-"
Cassie sees her dad doing the stop gesture and smiles.
"n't get enough appreciation, I just wanted to say thank you," Cassie hugs Hope.
"Oh...thank you!" Hope laughs.
"Morning, honey," Scott kisses her.

After eating Hope goes to get Henry, only to find her mother sitting with him.
"Oh, hi mom," Hope pauses.
"Hey, Jellybean!" Janet smiles.
"You don't have to-"
"Gramma.." Henry coos, playing with the his gramma's earrings.
"Okay...I guess he wants gramma," Hope shrugs.
"Go relax, dear, you deserve it," Janet insists.
"Alright.." Hope leaves a little hesitantly.
Why is everyone acting this way?
"Hi, dad," Hope greets her dad in the hallway.
"Good morning, Hope," Hank smiles.
"Headed to the lab?" She asks.
"No, I was actually looking for you, I was hoping you could round up Scott and the kids, and we could go on a little drive," Hank laughs.
"Oh, sure! Of course!" Hope agrees, going to get her husband and kids(plus her mother).
They all pile into their mini van, and Hank hits a button on the steering wheel, making it shrink.
"Dad?" Hope calls.
"What?" Hank smirks.

They get where they're going after a few hours, Hope has a million questions, but no answers.
It's a cave, the entrance too small for even little Henry to fit in, but the inside is big enough to fit forty+ people.
There's a big banner that reads "Happy Birthday Hope!" a cake, Luis, Dave, and Kurt are all there already, blowing up balloons.
"Scotty! You're early! We were going to do this big thing with the balloons, see, they-"
"Sorry, Luis, we should have texted," Scott cuts him off.
"Well, happy birthday, Hope!" Luis hugs her.
"Thank you, Luis, Scott, why-"
"Because, that-" Scott points to a wall, where a bunch of ants are piled up, making the words "Happy Birthday Hope" on the wall, "Wouldn't work anywhere else without scaring people."
The ants move to start forming different words, and Luis starts some music.
"Scott...don't you dare.." Hope laughs as she sees the words.
"Come on, Hope, I can't do it alone," Scott holds out a hand.
They sing a(terrible)duet of City Of Stars.
They all have a great time, talking, dancing, playing dumb party games, and eating cake.
"Happy birthday, Hope," Scott pulls her close, kissing her.
"This was extremely over the top, and unnecessary..." Scott winces, thinking Hope hated it, "Thank you, I love it," Hope kisses him.
"I helped!" Luis chimes in.
"Thank you, Luis," Hope laughs.
"The hard part was getting you to forget your own birthday! We had to set your phone two days back a week ago!" Janet laughs.
"You tricked me into forgetting my birthday?!" Hope playfully hits Scott.
"Jan!" Scott cries.
"You're hard to surprise, Hope," Hank laughs.
"Cassie almost got us caught," Scott points.
"I forgot!" She laughs.
"Well this was awesome, but next time you trick me I'm beating you," Hope leans on Scott.
"I know."
