00:00It's almost Father's Day. Yes. I came home to hang out with my father. Big day. Hey!
00:14I came home to hang out with my father. Yes. And we've decided to look through some old childhood
00:20photos of the two of us together. Of which there are many. Take a walk down memory lane together.
00:26We're gonna stroll. If we find some good ones, maybe try to recreate them. Yeah,
00:32there'll be some good ones. Yeah? Yeah. Because you were very photogenic as a child. I was? Yes, you are.
00:37Am I still? Yes, you are. So do you want to go look at the books? Sure. To the books!
00:43Step this way.
00:45We have the big books and we have the small books. They're dated and they start being dated before you
00:55were born. Right over here. 1289 which is when your brother was born. And they go all the way up
01:03to
01:05299 which is over here when you were seven years old. And right around that time we started doing
01:13everything digital. So everything from beyond that is on the computer. All right, let's start looking
01:18through them. Okay. Let's start from 1992. The year of my birth. Let's see. Here comes the book.
01:26There's mom. There's you. Can you notice yourself? I'm right in there. You're in there. Here we are
01:33coming out. There you are. Yep. Screaming. Don't touch me. Don't touch me. I'm sterile. There's Jimmy.
01:42Here you are. Look at you. There you are. Who's who? Can you tell? Um, not in that picture I
01:51can't tell.
01:52I can. That's me. Yeah? That's Allie. Okay. There's the twins with mama. Yep. Twins with daddy. Yep.
01:59We should recreate this photo. There's the classic photo when I brought you home.
02:03Aww. I could try to redo that. Okay, so we found a ton of shots of us together.
02:12And here are some of our favorites that we're gonna try to recreate. How are they? They're good.
02:18It's a good thing I got bangs recently. Yeah, it's a good thing. I wish I had bangs.
02:23I need more hair. See, I had bangs in these photos. Yeah. And now I have bangs. I used to
02:30tell you when
02:31you were little to make certain faces. The mean face. The happy face. The angry face.
02:37Did I do it? Yeah, you did it. You were good at it. Show me the mean face. Show me
02:42the happy face.
02:44Angry. All right, this is the first photo we're recreating.
02:51What's the very first memory that you have of me? When we used to go on family
03:00vacations to Aruba, and we used to wake up at 4 a.m., sometimes 3 a.m., to go get
03:06pool chairs
03:07down by the pool. And I used to wake up and put on one of his big giant t-shirts,
03:13watch the sun rise, stand in line, and basically just wait for the pool hut to open so that we
03:19could
03:19be the first to get the pool chairs and pick our spot by the pool. All right, Dad and I
03:24are in our
03:25outfits. I'm ready to roll. Ready to roll on photo number one. Handing it off to cameraman Allie.
03:31Camera woman. Who will be filming from now on. When Lucy was really little, she basically was
03:40friends with everyone. She would go off with anyone. If she wanted to go off with the gardener,
03:46she would do that. Lucy, what's your name? Tell me your name. Lucy Fink. All right, I have to take
03:53my glasses off because I don't have any glass on the picture. I must have had contact. Okay,
03:58you're on the wrong sides. Lucy. Yeah, Lucy, get on the other side. Your hair is down and your bangs
04:04are in front of your face with like a tiny little split down the middle. But still, like you're supposed
04:11to be sitting on Dad's lap in this photo. So like your legs go out to the side. Like that?
04:19That's
04:19pretty good, but you guys both lean that way more. Lucy's extremely positive person. She's like the most
04:26positive person. He's breathing on me. So if I need some positivity in my day, I'll try to get in
04:33touch
04:33with Lucy. Sorry, I just ate a croissant. Lucy's closed mouth smile. Dad is teeth showing.
04:40Okay, stay where you are.
04:45Up next, this photo. Christmas at the Binks. My favorite thing about my dad
04:51is that he is actually the perfect mix between being very serious and smart and responsible,
05:00but also very lighthearted and carefree and silly. And for people who don't know my dad, he
05:08is quite the legend. So I don't own these candy cane tights anymore. So I'm just going to use white
05:15tights and we are going to print some candy canes.
05:31Dad, where are you? I'm in the attic. I'm coming down. Look what I found.
05:37Oh, the booklet. Christmas at the Binks. And the tree. And the tree. What are you doing?
05:44I'm putting up a black background. Oh, smart. Oh. That doesn't work.
05:51I remember that in the past, you used to teach me everything.
05:56Don't say no to the dog, Lucy. That scares her.
05:59I need this. I need this, Daddy. I need this. Get up.
06:03But these days, it seems I'm teaching my dad a lot more.
06:07Technology, social media. He wants followers. I got to teach him.
06:12This seems like a good spot. Good job. And then we can put the tree on this table.
06:18All right. I'm going to pass it off to Allie.
06:22As a father, I always wanted to impart on my kids the importance of family.
06:31Allie. Allie.
06:32Do you have glasses on in this picture? Yes.
06:35All my candy canes fell off. Oh, no. It's all right.
06:38Okay. They're all over the floor.
06:40Let's see. Take your hair down.
06:42You know, he was a strict dad growing up, and he made sure that we were studying hard
06:46and putting our family first. But on the flip side of that, he's got an earring.
06:51He's got a tattoo. He's a pretty cool guy. That other arm is around Lucy.
07:01Yeah, you're like squishing your legs in this photo. Your legs could be bent.
07:05Can you see my underwear? No.
07:07I promise. Yeah. All right. Well, this might be as good as we're going to get.
07:16Up next, the drunk face.
07:20Lucy was always very outgoing, and she used to put on all these shows for us.
07:25The most famous show was called the Lucy Fink Show of Cups and Balls.
07:29It was sort of like a magic show. She always would start off the show by saying,
07:38Ladies and gentlemen, presenting to the Lucy Fink Show of Cups and Balls.
07:45What are you doing? Daddy, can we watch the tape after?
07:49All right, Jimmy. You're in position. All right. Hello?
07:52Your head's going to be this way. Dad's.
07:56And up.
07:58Yeah.
08:00Wait, Dad. Get your head out a little more.
08:02Is this what I'm doing?
08:03And do it. Basically.
08:06Do I get the Dad of the Year Award?
08:08Yeah.
08:09You get the Dad of the Quarter Century Award.
08:13What am I supposed to do with this?
08:15Yeah, you're kind of like in her armpit.
08:17It tickles.
08:19I can't deal with it.
08:22Come on. You can't tickle. I'm not moving.
08:25It tickles so badly.
08:27Come on.
08:28Where's my face looking?
08:30Your eyes are rolling. It's rolling in your head this way.
08:37Kind of like that.
08:39Oh, you lunatic.
08:41Dad, your hands are touching each other.
08:44Your fingers are touching each other.
08:46Yeah.
08:47Well, that's funny.
08:48All right.
08:53Up next, we got this photo booth trio.
08:59Twins are a blessing.
09:00I have to start with that.
09:02My girls are the best.
09:04They're so good.
09:06The first time ever, I went on the radio with my Dad.
09:08I'm trying to get Allie to do it, too.
09:12And Allie doesn't want to come.
09:13And I say, don't be shy.
09:16Talk to the mic.
09:20Making another black backdrop.
09:22Here's our photo booth.
09:23I have three children that are all very, very different from each other.
09:27During the day, if we go to school, or you have soccer games, or this or that,
09:31and everybody's going in different directions.
09:33What happened here?
09:34But when it came down to dinner time, that would be our time to spend together.
09:39Okay.
09:40You've got to tip up the camera a little bit more because the top of my head is cut off.
09:43Well, we're going to have to scoot.
09:45We're going to have something down.
09:46There you go.
09:46Okay.
09:47So the first photo, we're just smiling at the camera.
09:53Oh, God.
09:54It's kind of like this.
09:55How do we get down?
09:56You need bangs.
09:58Smile at the camera.
09:59Second photo, Allie's hand is like hanging out of her mouth.
10:03And now the last one, me and Dad have tongues out.
10:05Allie's tongue is out, but her hands in her mouth.
10:14So, you know, it's really too bad that you didn't know my dad because my dad died when I was
10:21only 16.
10:22So, uh, could you imagine life without me, Louie?
10:28What?
10:29Get up.
10:30What are you looking at?
10:34No, I can't imagine life without you and I just don't want to.
10:38That would be pretty bad.
10:39Yeah.
10:40Yeah.
10:41Last photo, we're floating on a float in the ocean.
10:45We don't have the ocean near us.
10:48But we have a pool.
10:49So we're going to use the pool.
10:51The blue bathing suit.
10:53I remember once we went to Acapulco.
10:57We were ready to go into the ocean together, but the ocean waves were pretty big and Lucy was
11:03pretty little.
11:04And so we went in together and all of a sudden came this rogue wave.
11:10Like, I don't know, 10 feet high.
11:13Nice.
11:14And came and smashed us down.
11:16I held on to Lucy the entire time, but smashed my knees down into the sand.
11:23But Lucy, she, uh, she survived the entire thing.
11:27Allie!
11:29Hi.
11:29We're ready for you.
11:32You like the suit?
11:33Please.
11:34We're ready for you.
11:35You're like, you're 12 years old.
11:37Yeah, this, I don't even know how I found this, but it looks the same as the one in the
11:41photo.
11:42We've got a float.
11:44Hey.
11:45Hey, the pool's nice and warm.
11:47Get in.
11:49All right.
11:51Can you, can you sit on that without sinking, Lou?
11:55What does Father's Day mean to you?
11:57Father's Day means that my daughters and my son express their love for me and they're going to
12:03say how important I was to them and I'm going to cry.
12:06And, and Lucy, your, your hands are like, you know, blocking the shade from your,
12:12blocking the sun from your eyes.
12:14Creating shade, yeah.
12:15And Dad's just standing there with his hands on the float.
12:18Is my hair wet?
12:18No, you can't tell.
12:19Can you make it?
12:20You can't tell because it was black here and it's great now.
12:24Hi, you're pushing me down!
12:25Dad, you're...
12:27And my arms like this or like this?
12:29No, back where they were.
12:31Yeah, like that.
12:32Am I supposed to be holding the float like this?
12:33Uh-huh.
12:34Your left leg should be off to the side on the diagonal a little bit.
12:38Yeah, like that.
12:41This one's pretty good.
12:46So you really love me?
12:47I do love you, Lucy.
12:48I love you too.
12:49Yes, I know.
12:50I love you.
12:50Happy Father's Day.
12:51Thank you so much.
12:52Fun video.
13:06Happy Father's Day.
13:08Happy Father's Day.
13:08Happy Father's Day.
13:09Woo!
13:09Woo!
