Won't You Be My Neighbor?

Success! I didn't even have to make cookies! We met our first neighbor yesterday (let's call him One Time) and he is so nice and friendly. As a father of two, he thought Bean was adorable and kept trying to engage him. Bean, true to form, never broke character - frowning, scowling, and not blinking, he maintained eye contact with OT.
One Time: "Wow, he's pretty intense, huh? Does he smile?"

Paul: "He does smile, and it's so cute! Come on, Bean, smile for One Time!"

Bean: "..." (*You will feel grossly incompetent. You will never be my friend. I judge you. Take that to the bank, giant man.*)

One Time: "...He's kind of making me uncomfortable. Haha!" *nervous laughter*

For the record, he never smiled or blinked. Not until about 3 minutes after we concluded our conversation and strolled away did he even exhale. That's my boy!
