Happy Birthday Face!
At some point today, when Ton is not around, Face will find a shoebox. It will look like an ordinary, every-day shoebox.
The only reason why Face might open it is because of the badly-drawn hawkbat wearing an eye-patch that is on the lid.
Inside this shoebox, should Face be moved to look inside, is the following...
An unmarked DVD case with two disks inside. When the first one is played, Face will see a personal message from Ton and his cast, starting with a rousing chorus of The Birthday Song, complete with dance-routine, and ending with the following speech:
Face, I have far too many of your movies. I think it's only fair that you have too many of mine. This disk contains a recording of our most recent Spamalot dress-rehearsal. The second has a copy of A Streetcar Named Desire. Please don't laugh too hard.
Love you, Man. Have a great one!
Underneath the DVD case is a regular notebook with lined paper in it. First page has the following in Ton's scrawl:
Dear Face,
I know we don't talk as much as we used to, but that's okay. I know you always come to me with the important stuff. We talked about your moving only briefly, and really, I'm okay with that too.
I hope you'll use this notebook as a journal of sorts, for the times when you feel you can't come to me, or there is something preventing you from coming to me with whatever it is you need to talk about.
I hope you'll let me read it some day.

Hey. Guys are allowed to be shmoopy every once in a while, too, you know.
Just, like, don't tell anyone, okay?
