37A Steely Phil/37B Quantity Time

Grandpa is haunted by his own 40-year legacy as “Steely Phil,” the best Chinese checkers player in the city undone by his own drive to win, until Robby Fisher goads him back for one last match. What’s really great is we get to learn a lot more about Grandpa and the city along the way. In “Quantity Time,” Helga and Big Bob struggle to relate to each other when Miriam takes a few days off. They don’t really get along – Big Bob is too out of touch with his daughter and Helga doesn’t have the patience to deal with her dawdling dad – but they both give it a fair shake. Repressed, combative Patakis? I don’t believe it! Whether you're a part of the gang or this is your first time on the stoop, we'd really appreciate it if you could leave us a review!
