Morning about his arrest. I cannot wait till the truth comes to light about this. Accused of threatening a former beauty queen with a gun. What really happened behind the scenes of that hourslong Police Standoff at his home. New details only on gma. Serena the superstar williams does it again. Game. What a serving display. Making history at the u. S. Open, winning more grand slam matches than any player, man or woman ever. Now the greatest of all time has a new record in sight. And good morning, america. How about that, Serena Williams and how about that voice we just heard. Welcome back, michael. Thank you, george. Thank you. Come on now. Hey, hey. No, be quiet. No, no, no, no. It is great to have you full time with us. It does feel like the first day of school around here, doesnt it . Only thing im missing is my spiderman lunch box. It does feel like that though. You did have that, didnt you . I did and the kiss one too. Well meet your mini michael coming up. Were going to start out with politics. The labor day has passed and the president ial race, 63 days before the final vote and both bearing down on the big battleground states. You see their planes sharing a tarmac in cleveland yesterday. Well have those exclusively interviews with david muir in just a moment. Lets start with cecilia vega who has all the latest from a busy labor day. George, busy is right. Good morning to you. No holiday for these candidates. Traditionally the campaigns kick into high gear until after labor day but nothing about this is traditional. This is the final sprint. Reporter a political traffic jam hitting this ohio tarmac. Hillary clinton and donald trump landing just steps from one another before hitting the trail. Welcome to our big plane. Its so exciting. Reporter 275 days without a press conference and clinton broke in her new plane by answering reporters questions and going after donald trump. Hes temperamentally unfit to be president and commander in chief. But if you look at his behavior toward putin and russia, that is a serious indication of how unfit he is. Reporter but her inaugural ride on hill force one interrupted by a coughing fit. Can i get some water . Reporter this after a twominute coughing fit earlier on the campaign trail. Every time i think about trump, i get allergic. Boy, we have 363 days to go. Reporter Trumps Campaign manager responding immediately tweeting, must be allergic to media. Finally spent a minute with them. Trump also racing to the finish line in ohio. The republican nominee now saying he will do all three debates. The only reason he wouldnt . Hurricanes, natural disaster. No, i expect to do all three. Reporter you heard it. He says hell do all three. Hillary clinton brought out her allies. They were out in force spanning the map. Even Bernie Sanders hit the trail for the very first time on his own. We now know next week First Lady Michelle Obama will campaign for Hillary Clinton for the first time in this race. Clinton, robin, is taking no chances right now. Both were in ohio and both sat down with one person, world news tonight anchor david muir. Hillary clinton and tim kaine you have taking aim, fighting back about questions about her stamina. Michael, great to see you. 63 days but were here longer than that. All four saying yes sitting down with us. We first met up with Hillary Clinton and tim kaine moments after touching down on clintons new plane dubbed hill force one. They have a new book but they also have that brand new poll this morning. This race is tightening dramatically and heres your first look. Labor day is here. Labor day is here. I hear you just landed in ohio and i understand you flew hill force one. We did. Did you notice out the window the trump pence plane, too . We did. Is that a sign its game on . I think it might be. 63 days to go until election day and you mentioned donald trump in this country, secretary clinton. And people know he wants to build a wall. Tough on immigration. Im curious, when a voter is asked what Hillary Clinton stands for with 63 days to go, what do you hope theyll say . I hope theyll say i stand for the kind of future that will help them and their families. We want to get the economy to work for everyone, not just those at the top. The best i can tell is donald trump is for building a big wall which we now know after his unfortunate trip to mexico, the mexicans have said theyre not paying for it. You talk about the trip to mexico. Donald trump said they did not discuss who would pay for that wall. The mexican president afterwards said they did discuss it and that mexico would not pay for it. Your campaign said, quote, it turns out trump didnt just choke, he got beat in the room and lied about it. Is that what you believe . Thats what it sounded like because what happened is what we call a diplomatic incident, because he came out saying one thing and the mexican president contradicted him almost immediately. So, it is clear that he went down with a mission, its been the mission of his whole campaign from the very first day to demonize immigrants, to call mexicans rapists and criminals, to do everything he could to stir up all kinds of bad feelings about hard working people. He didnt raise it so he did choke. On those trips, those recent trips donald trump tweeted Hillary Clinton didnt go to louisiana, she didnt go to mexico, she doesnt have the drive or stamina to make America Great again. He goes on to say does she look president ial, fellas . Give me a break. Can i just does she look president ial, fellas . Thats an idiotic comment. From donald trump. I got added to this ticket about 11, 12 weeks, 100 days from the election. This great Public Servant has been on the field for 17 or 18 months, its hard to keep up with her. The day he tweeted out hillary didnt come to mexico, does she have the energy, she was here in ohio talking to the american legion. We do press Hillary Clinton on the fbi revealing their investigation into her emails. What she said she didnt recall and an aide breaking her blackberries with a hammer, we learned about that in the investigation and well get into that. How does she explain the polls are tightening . She said she fully expected these polls to tighten but a lot people have looked at these weeks and said donald trump is out there a lot more than she was and spent more time with donors. I asked has she been outcampaigned by him and she said no. Well get into that. Were looking forward to the debates. What does she expect from trump . She said trump said after every one of those republican debates i won. She said that is not lost on her. She takes that into this preparation and takes it seriously. You can tell she is already prepping. You had a busy day. You raced across the state and spoke with both of them. We didnt get a speeding ticket but it was close. We headed to the county fair where donald trump was, a huge crowd gathered outside for donald trump and his running mate. He pointed to those crowds but he also pointed to the polls, saying he is on the rise. What does he mean when he talks about Hillary Clintons stamina, we asked and about what she said, did he choke . Isnt it divide and conquer . 63 days to go. It is. Very rarely will we be together like maybe once every two weeks. We like it because we like each other but the fact is its better when mike goes someplace and i go someplace. You often talked about Hillary Clintons stamina and said she didnt look president ial. I really do believe that if what do you mean by that . I dont think she has a president ial look and you need a president ial look. You have to get the job done. I think if she went to mexico she would have had a total failure. We had a big success. When you talk about her not looking president ial, are you talking about aesthetics here . Im talking about general by the way, she says things about me that are horrible. The single greatest asset i have according to those who know me, is my temperament, but she came up with this madison avenue line lets talk about his temperament. Its the single greatest asset i have is my temperament. Reporter trump knows his opponent is here too. Hillary clinton who is also here in ohio as you know told us a short time ago you choked, that the idea of mexico paying for this wall has been central to your campaign. Did you choke . So, let me just tell you about joking. I dont joke. She jokes. Look at the deals shes made. Shes responsible for so many bad things that happened to our country including the signing by her husband of nafta which has drained our country of its jobs. Ive been given a plus including by you people but ive been a pluses for the job i did in mexico and the fact that mexico will pay for the wall. It was discussed that it wouldnt be discussed but they know my stance and i know their stance. Did the mexican president break his word in talking about it . We had ground rules and thats okay. See who winds in the end. Well win 100 theyll pay for the wall. Governor pence, youre making news in revealing youll release your tax returns. Sure. Pretty quick read. Pretty quick read. Im curious. Do you think the American Voter has the right to see the tax returns of donald trump before they vote on election day . You know, im very pleased to provide our tax returns. Youre going to find out my family is a middle class family and there will be pretty clear evidence we havent profited from our 16 years in and around public life. But, governor, im asking about donald trump and every president ial candidate going back 40 years look, im releasing my tax returns. Donald trump will release his. Ill give mine to yall this week and hell provide his after a routine audit is done is there as far as mine are concerned the only one that cares is the press. Its no the a big deal. You dont think there are any voters. I think people dont care. Im not sure about that. Weve heard from a lot of voters saying they want to see his tax return and he is the only one in recent history not to release. Well press him further and we also ask him about immigration, his speech in phoenix, and where hes going with undocumented immigrants. He does leave the door open in this interview for undocumented immigrants to stay had this country. Youll see how he answers that and the debate we asked about the debate too. Anyone playing hillary, we asked. He said im not preparing in a traditional way. Well think about it. Not even holding mock debates. Everything has been untraditional. Why should it change now . I think you have more to say about this and you will tonight, more of your interview on world news tonight with this guy, david muir. Thanks, guys. Back to school here. I know. It is. Back to matthew dowd. I brought the pencil. Our chief political analyst and Martha Raddatz will join us. Lets talk about the new poll from cnn, shows donald trump among likely voters pulling ahead twopoint lead within the margin of error. Hillary clinton still leading among registered voters. Interesting contrast. I think this poll is significant, probably the most significant piece of data weve sign in the entire general election and demonstrates among the people most excited, most engaged donald trump has a lead and that should concern the Hillary Clinton campaign. The other thing that i think should concern the Clinton Campaign coming out of the poll is that donald trump has now blown through his cap. He used to be capped at 42 or 43 now up to 45. Hes at his personal best. If Hillary Clinton thought she could coast in the home stretch of this thing she better tighten up her track shoes and buy a bigger box of cough drops and be prepared for a very, very close race. Looks like a close race right now. And most of the candidates now are spending most of their time in about 12 of those battleground states where she does still hold a lead. She still does. If you take a look at the panoply of battleground states she leads almost every single one but one thing to keep in mind is the Battle Ground states are lagging indicators of where this race is. As the race changes nationally then the battleground states change. I would expect in the next week many of those battleground states blue now will go to purple. There hasnt been recent polling on that. Lets bring in martha rad rats. Martha, congratulations, youll moderate that debate on october 9th and spending time in those states talking to voters in the key state of pennsylvania. Exactly, george. You know, we talked to voters who reflect what poll numbers say about unfavorability. And the people we talked to who are clinton supporters have Serious Trust issues with her. I heard that again and again. Some of it is because of old controversies but a lot of people are absorbing the message that trump is putting out there that shes not telling the truth. As for trump the voters who are still trying to decide, especially there in pennsylvania, do worry about temperament issues despite what he told david muir. Martha, matt, thanks very much. From an ongoing political storm to two tropical systems on the satellite, hermine spinning off the coast of new england as another storm, hurricane newton, makes landfall in cabo this morning and, of course, ginger is tracking it all. Good morning. Yes, Cabo San Lucas on attack there looking impressive, 90 plusmileperhour winds, cat 1 and makes its way into the southwest.

Thank you, ginger. Now to a big headline this morning about the flu vaccine in your children. And abcs dr. Jennifer ashton joins us now with the details. Good morning, doctor. Good morning michael. Just straight to it. What do parents need to know . For some Historical Perspective a few months ago the cdc evaluated the last three years of flu seasons, flu vaccines and found that the nasal flu vaccine, that nasal mist largely given to children really did not work. This morning the American Academy of pediatrics came out with their recommendation, no surprise here, they echoed what the cdc said and saying the flu vaccine in the nasal mist form should not be given to children. To be Crystal Clear here, they are recommending that every child above the age of 6 months gets the injectable flu vaccine. A lot would do that because the injectable is not comfortable for children. Or adults. What do you tell patients about the importance of flu vaccine, there are a lot of people who dont take them. 100 . I take this seriously. I have been diagnosed with influenza twice, both times i thought i was going to die. I took care of a pregnant teenager who did die of complications of influenza. About 80 of the kids who die of flu were not vaccinated. Take this seriously. Talk to your childs pediatrician. You know what, thank you for your advice. I hope everybody heeds and accepts it.

We start out with the latest from chris brown speaking out about the intense standoff at his home with police. The singers legal team insists it was a setup and matt has the rest. Reporter they provided us with what they say is the smoking gun, a text message from his accuser which they say shows the former beauty queen framed him adding that if any charges are going to be pressed, its against her for providing false testimony to police. I cannot wait till the truth comes to light about this incident. Reporter this morning chris brown hinting that ninehour showdown with the lapd at his mansion was a setup. Because, you know, my character has been defaced and who i am as a person and integrity. Reporter brown seen here in this video clip provided exclusively to abc news maintaining his innocence after being arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. Im glad all my real supporters know me and the truth and theyll see it. Reporter authorities have been trying to piece together what really happened at the 4 million mansion after receiving this call at 3 00 a. M. Last tuesday morning. Two females, unknown, crying and asking for help. Reporter the former beauty queen had been in browns home along with a dozen other visitors and told abc news she was looking at a box of expensive diamond jewelry. Thats when chris came in and said, im so sick of all of you people. Took the gun out like this, put it in my face and said get the f out. Reporter the singer remained inside blasting out angry messages on social message. When you get the warrant you can walk up right in here and see nothing. You idiots. Reporter but abc news has now learned chris browns defense team led by famed attorney mark geragos believed the r b singer was set up by the accuser herself. His defense team sharing with abc news a text message purportedly sent by baylee to a friend just minutes before the 911 call was made. The text message reading, this freak, chris brown, is kicking me out of his house because i called his friends jewelry fake. Im going to set him up and call the cops and say that he tried to shoot me and that will teach him a lesson. Im going to set his expletive up. Were there any guns in the house at the time . There was a search that was done. They went in and said that they had a description of a piece of jewelry, that jewelry was not found in the house. They went in and she said that there was a gun. As far as i know the gun was not found in the house. Reporter also at the heart of the investigation the surveillance cameras on browns property. So theres no chris brown waving a gun . No no baylee looking at a box of jewelry. Nothing. Reporter geragos a constant figure beside brown over the past decade again by his clients side while brown posted a 250,000 bail. A nearly identical scene to that standoff is expected to air in the upcoming abc drama series notorious based on geragos life as a high profile attorney. You do exactly what i say. Reporter in your show notorious the character that plays you arrives to diffuse a situation very much like what you experienced so, yes, there is a little bit life imitating art. As i was walking through it i was thinking the same thing. Reporter brown who has not been charged will be arraigned in two weeks. Now, baylee currans people say she stands by her claims and they question the authenticity of that text message and told me if she had written a text so explicitly incriminating herself, why would she have given her phone to police investigators. They clearly have plenty of work left to do. Guys. Matt, thanks very much. Lets talk to dan abrams about that. Matt hits on the big question. If this is real, this text is real sure seems leak a smoking gun. If this text is real and no other context out there, this case is over. I mean, this is it. Sure, maybe theres an explanation somehow. Maybe there is another text. Maybe there is Surveillance Footage or other witnesses but if those words were said by her at that time, i dont see how prosecutors move forward. You say the case is over, they cant move forward against chris brown. What about charges against her . Its possible. If they become convinced she filed a false Police Report and they have to be convinced of that, she could face charges. Thats what chris browns team is now saying is that shes the one who should be facing charges here. Not him. But i think it is fair to call this a smoking gun if its authentic. I think a lot of people would say even if he was set up, chris brown could have handled it better. He behaved terribly. Look, this may not have been a standoff, right . Mark geragos is upset it was called a standoff because geragoss position is i told him wait there, ill be there eventually. Ill get there. When they get a warrant, et cetera, well let them in, no problem in brown did say that. You can argue against that. The Media Coverage of this was a little overstated, calling it a standoff, but for chris brown to go on instagram and rail against the police, it wasnt the police who decided to go to his house. They got a call from this woman alleging that chris brown pointed a gun at her. Thats not their fault. They have to respond. They have to respond. So, look, chris brown can have other beefs with the police but at that time that was not a smart move in your goal is not to get arrested and not to get prosecuted, but, again, if this text is real, i dont think theres going to be any prosecution. Dan abrams, thanks very much. Over to michael. Whats up on the big board. Thank you. Coming up on our big board, Dale Earnhardt jr. Putting the brakes on racing after a concussion. Will he ever get behind the wheel again . Were going to find out about that. A woman accused of body shaming a perfect stranger on snapchat. Will she face jail time .

See what delta can do. The search for relief often leads here. S, introducing drugfree aleve direct therapy. A high intensity tens device that uses technology once only in doctors offices. For deep penetrating relief at the source. New aleve direct therapy. You should h you should have been with us during the commercial break. We got it all set out on the big board. It is time for our big board and team of insiders standing by live for more on the mornings top stories. Sunny hostin here at the table. Well talk to her in a minute. First lets start with the latest on Dale Earnhardt jr. The nascar fan favorite stepping away from the wheel for the season, saying hes suffering from concussion complications after that accident this summer. Its the fourth documented concussion of his career. Former nascar driver ricky craven is going to join us and talk about that as well. Good to see you here. I know you went through this, as well and had some concussions during your racing days. Tell us the experience you went through and what junior might be going through. Good morning, robin. Its very uncomfortable, its awkward, a little clumsy and may be paralyzing because you do not prepare for becoming compromised or injured. Just like you dont prepare for getting into a wreck. Youre dominated by winning races. And if you look at this 41 car tumbling through the air thats not something you prepare for. You react to it. So Dale Earnhardt jr. s circumstance is this, he spent most of his life pushing the limits on how fast he can go in a car. What will that car give him and what will that racetrack allow him . What will his talent provide him. And then when you get hurt, you have to surrender. Youre depending on the people around you, the doctors, your team. And thats not typical of an athlete. They want control. You talk about what the car will allow to you do. Its really, at this point, what his body will allow him to do. Hes not considering ricky, he said hes not thinking about retirement, he told his fans that but considering the circumstances, should he think about that . So we know this, hes having trouble with his vision. Hes having trouble with balance and gotten out of a race car twice because of these concussions and im sure you can relate, michael, you dont always get to vote on this. Number one, you got to become healthy again, right . Thats the first hurdle you have to clear. Number two, even after becoming healthy, youre 42 years old. Youre about to get married. Youre exposed to other things in life that are a lot of fun. Do you want to take the risk associated with being a race car driver again . He has so many fans, so many fans. He has so many fans but then you got to weigh it and life after work. How do you do that . Playing in the nfl having injuries and that, what ricky was talking about, how do you i think one of the hardest things is not racing or not playing the sport is learning when to stop. I said, hey, the risk reward is not worth it. My body has gone through enough. I have a long life to live after the game is over. And the reward, gma. The reward of gma, here every day. This is my reward for retiring, yeah. Hey, ricky, thank you. Thank you so much. Now to possible jail time over body shaming. Playboy model dani mathers came under fire after snapchatting this photo of a nude woman at the gym with the caption, if i cant unsee this then you cant either. The lapd has found the victim and charges against mathers could be coming and, sunny, youre here with more. You both spent some time in locker rooms isnt it a violation of girl code and guy code youre not supposed to even look at someone but take pictures. Its a violation of california law. You cant take photographs of someone in a private setting without their consent when theres this reasonable expectation of privacy. Absolutely. We all think that the locker room that at a gym is a sacred place trying to become a better version and body shaming a 70yearold who is at the gym. For what she posted what could she be faceing . Six months in jail and a thousand dollar fine forde central nating these photos and taking them without the victims concept. Six months. She did post an apology. She said i know, i know because some people said shes apologizing for getting caught for doing what she did. How will that play possibly . I think the prosecutors are in the business of seeking truth and justice but also in the business of sending a message to society that says this we will not tolerate so maybe during a plea deal or maybe at sentencing the judge may look at this, you know, act of contrition but i think shes going to face charges, although i will tell you this, my 14yearold son said it is possible to accidentally snapchat a group and you think youre doing it just with one person. You dont have that kind of caption. There was a caption. She said she meant to sent it to just one friend, not the group. Does that make it better . It doesnt for me. I felt violated for the woman. Absolutely. And your son still schooling you on things. On technology. Now to a summer of extremes at the box office that has hollywood scratching its head. For every blockbuster hit like finding dory and bad moms, oh, that was so good, there were even more super size misses. I thought benhur would do better and the bfg. Just two disappointments that have studios concerned. Larry hackett will weigh in. Whats going on . Basically you had sequel pileup. You had 14 sequels out this summertime. For most of us theres only ten weeks or so of the summer so somebody is going to fail there. You had very little choice. The fact of the matter if sequels, comic book movie, horror movies and no romantic comedies. A lot stayed away because there were no offerings they wanted to see. The New York Times says a lot of casual moviegoers arent going to the movies. What do you think is keeping them away . Think about whats happened to all kinds of media, television, magazines, newspapers. You have choice and you can stay home and bingewatch narcos instead of 18 in new york or los angeles to pay for a movie. You have lots of choices. Unless its something you really want to see, youll go. The idea of turning up in a movie theatre and saying whats on is just fading. Its too much other things to do. Everybody here, sunny, larry, ricky, do you go to the movies less because theres such great tv out there . Sure do. No. You still go . Movie night is friday night my husband. We do margarita and a movie. I have seen all of them. I havent seen a blockbuster i dont love. I love them. Margarita and movie. How about you two . I definitely go less. No question about it. Ricky . I love movies but not as much as i love sportscenter and star wars. A man after our own heart. Comfy chair wins out at all time. I like margarita and movie night. Every friday.

I dont know about walking on sunshine but the 6monthold makes waves in the water. Abcs t. J. Holmes, whats the story here . A lot of people are not on the fence on this thing. They either see this and say, ah, thats cute or say, man, thats dangerous. That old adage about you start them young, people say maybe that shouldnt apply to a baby and water skiing. Check this out. Most crawl before they walk. This kid skis before he crawls. Thats 6monthold auburn absher skiing on a North Carolina lake over the labor weekend. His parents claim he is the youngest skier in the world beating out this florida kid who was 6 months 27 days old. Auburn is 6 months, 10 days old in his video. This australian kid was a day younger than auburn in his skiing video also from the weekend. But records aside, many people are ripping auburns parents online. What he should care about is the safety of their child instead of some record, one writes. Another says, this is straight up child endangerment and both parents should be charged. Some, though, are coming to the parents defense. I think this kid going to love the water and love his parents for teaching him to ski. In the video you see auburns mom running alongside him the entire time. Auburns dad tells abc news they took every precaution necessary to keep him safe and would not have done this if he would not ready. He got ready by practicing in the living room, according to pictures and videos the family posted on facebook. This video shows him taking a tumble during one of those practice sessions. Gotcha. The dad there is a professional water skier, does some tricks. Only 6 months old. Okay, but i just talked to dr. Ashton and, yes, he is working on motor skills but generally speaking most parents are not going to put their kids in harms way so theres no drowning issue because the parents are right there but maybe he could fall. So many things could go wrong. Something could go wrong. But some people defending the parents also saying, look, did we get everything right . Think about what we did with our kids . How many times they fell down. Hanging out the sun roof. I made it. Thats right. Barely. George, youre not feeling it. Im comfortable judging this one.

Jesse is going to tell us all about the familys story. Good morning, robin. Lauren retired at the height of her career to start a family with jrue holiday. Now hes taking a leave of absence to take care of his wife and their baby. Lauren holiday, the explosive athlete behind unforgettable goals like this. The u. S. Attacking now. Holiday, goal. Reporter propelling the u. S. Womens soccer team to an epic victory in the 2015 World Cup Final. This is the most popular womens team on earth, and lauren was a huge part of that team. Reporter now off the field, the soccer superstar faces her biggest battle yet diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. After retiring from soccer last year, the 28yearold momtobe is eight months pregnant with her first child with husband and nba player jrue holiday. Hes announced he will sit out the start of the season with the new Orleans Pelicans because family comes first. They met at ucla. Both standout athletes. The Common Ground for this relationship was not a classroom, it was the playing field. Reporter lawyer and jrue married in 2013. The couple sharing a love of sports, coaching and inspiring younger generations at this camp. For me this would be like my dream camp when i was a kid. Jrue and i are both, our passion is giving back. Reporter according to the new orleans picayune, the tumor is benign, operable and not a threat to their unborn daughter. It will have to wait until after the baby is born seeking solace in their faith lauren saying thank you for your thoughts and prayers as we navigate a difficult time. Jrue telling the paper the pelicans havent pressured him to come back but agreeing he should become a husband first. Great organization there. Thats in new orleans. Dr. Jen is back with us. A lot of good news here about it being benign, shes pregnant. What complications and they still have to operate . So when you talk about a tumor like this, even if its benign and space occupying lesion as we say in medicine, it can grow to a point where it will compress or press on vital structures and cause symptoms. In pregnancy we do have to deal with pregnant women who have tumors, unfortunately, more often than you might think and it comes down to timing. The Mothers Health is always primary, and so its a waiting game. So much of obstetrics is about the race against that clock. Jrue was saying exactly the same thing, my wife comes first. That kind of support is crucial. Its vital. When talking about the support around a pregnant woman, its her spouse or partner, its her family, her friends, its her community and in this case the Sports Community and, in fact, the world at large. That is so important. It allows that pregnant woman to focus on her baby and let her circle focus on helping her. Its critical. Can i give you a little shoutout . We had a minor family crisis with a baby and reached right out to dr. Jen. Thank you. You know what, dr. Ashton will take your questions throughout the morning on twitter and facebook. Really appreciate that. You bet. Michael. Thank you, robin. I see how ginger feels when shes out here in the rain. When we come back, lara is joining us.

So good only at target. Out on the verge of the rest of our life its backtoschool time, everybody, which means its time to figure out what to do with your vacation photos. Hey, we all got a lot. Now, i got some great ones with my kids in houston. All four of my brood there and across the pond with the little ones. And, george, look at you. Im loving the scruff, man. Your family. That suit. Oh. Whale watching. Okay, ive never seen anybody in that outfit. Robin, there you are, you went with your team down to nevis. Nevis. Which is a great event, the beauty conference which looks like a lot of fun. And, amy, you had a lot of fun, as well. You did something, you hiked. You exercise on your trip. I like to do adventure vacations. This one was in montana. So it was great and my whole family, my brother and his family and mom and dad, it was great. Looked like a big family picture. A lot of people on that hike. We need to figure out how to save these things. Joining us to help us get these pictures in order is Good Housekeeping style director lori bergamotto. Welcome, lori. Thank you for having me. We have good idea, the first one all about a bang for your buck. We dont want to spend a lot of money, and scrapbooks can be expensive so searched around and found a good deal so these are from artifact uprising. Responsibly sourced material and its under 20. This whole thing is 17. 99. Take a look. Thats the gma summer. Whats neat about this, i dont know about you, im not the most tech savvy in the world so putting things into a drop box and doing a layout takes time and effort. Minimal effort. You can pull it off instagram. Those are a lot more work. Those are a lot of work. You dont have to go on a computer. You can do everything from your phone, theres no uploading, no dragging, no putting into a dropbox. 17. 99. Now you have no excuse not have to one of these. Thats right, thats right. Okay. What are some of the other creative options . There are a lot of other things you can do with the photos. There are. We thought about going beyond just sticking a picture in a picture frame so we did art. We did large scale from wemontage. Com. Removable photo wallpaper so its huge and put it on a wall, take it down, move it around or from minted if you want something one of a kind, a little more artsy. I love location frames so i think we did one of you with your daughters in texas which is neat. In the state shape. Also things like housewares from shutterfly. And this is the stephanopoulos family, as you can see, and you can do serving trays or catchalls if you want to pass that around. Where did you get that . Ill be honest with you, im keeping this one for myself. I know. I might want to keep that and pretend thats my family. Also they have candles, so theres a lot of creative inventive things. See here we have michaels family and these smell really good, ocean breeze, grapefruit. So nice. I think we have ones for all of you. Robin with you and the dream team, the glam team. Fun things you can do to commemorate your vacation on a budget. You know what, i was on vacation last couple of weeks, thank you very much. That was last week, right . And spent a part of that, our girl, lara spencer. Now, you know that this summer she had her right hip replaced, so amy no, no. My girlfriends name is amber, not amy. Oops. Amber and i went to see lara, and she is joining us on the phone sending you love and food. Weve been sending you wine. I sent wine. How are you doing, lara . Im great. How are you guys . I miss you. We miss you. We miss you too. How are you feeling . Im feeling great. Robin, that day that we spent together was priceless. One of the main things if anybodys ever had a surgery like this, number one, its a big deal and youre very fatigued and it kind of takes it consumes you, so to have somebody that you love come up and take your mind off your troubles and the pain and make you laugh for two hours is worth its weight in gold. So, thank you my friend. The rose helped. Yes. You know, its not an ice pack. Its an ice cold rose. How about that blinged out cane that youre using . Listen, this summer i was thinking about a broadway debut. Instead i had a hip replacement. My friend, there she is, my friend michelle came over day one that i was home, and she bedazzled my cane to make me laugh and make me smile. And theres the finished product. Very, very beautiful. Its become not only a necessary tool but also a party trick. How are you getting around, lara . Are you walking every day . Give us an idea what its like. Yeah, im up to almost a mile a day walking. Oh, wow. And at fiscal therapy, i ride the bike and do loads of exercises. And, again, if you are if you have had the surgery or if you have to have a hip replacement or any major surgery, i implore you to please, please do the exercises because that has gotten me really where i am today and so hopeful that ill be back with you guys before you know it. So everything is on track. Everything went well. Im not ready to go on a hike with you yet, amy. But ill get you there. You can do more leisurely stuff with me just like lay on a beach chair. You just take your time. You heal. You look wonderful. So proud of you, how hard youre working, lara. I know you want to get back as soon as you can. But you take care of you. Shell be back on the tennis court before oh, yeah. Maybe ill have a shot at her on a tennis court now. Lets check in with ginger outside. We love hearing from lara. Im so glad to hear shes doing well. You know, were playing right off that vacation photo you guys were showing. I wanted to show you valeries photo from seacrest beach. Your son .

I wanted to share with you a couple of things we found online leading up to it. Derek hough and his partner marilu. Theyre music. Ly to hamilton. Also the partners having great fun but just meeting would be witney and rob. Vanilla ice, they just met. I cant imagine how hell learn them so quickly. Took me three weeks for that first dance. Cheryl and ryan. She fed him his favorite meal. A little tease of all the folks i am meteorologist mike nicco, check out the day planner. 60s at the coast, 80s around the bay and 90s inland and warmer tomorrow, my sevenday forecast. And ten degrees cooler by the weekend. This Weather Report brought to you by beneful. Every time i see kids, i say are you skipping already. No in of course not. Lets get back in. Here now one of hollywoods brightest and most beloved stars of all time, tom hanks. His new movie, sully. Captain sullenberger, the reallife pilot. Can i just say this is like doing an interview in baggage claim. There are so many people here. Everybody is hustling and screaming and trying to moving furniture around. We call it controlled chaos. I got to go in line for taxicab to get to my next interview. Oh, lord. You were able to pilot that miracle landing on the hudson. You know, we did a fake version of that and it was it just nearly as spectacular as the real hinge. Lets take a look. Here we go. 30 seconds and master 1 and 2 confirm off. Off. Too low. Too low. Terrain. Too low, terrain. This is the captain. Brace for impact. Yeah, my plane. Hard not to call the movie brace for impact but you think terrorists are involved so we didnt do it. Sully is the right name for it. Hes the man. You embody everything about this man. Why now . This happened in january of 2009. Why do you think the timing is now for the movie to come out, tom. I think for larger philosophical reasons i think it takes a look at the social contract we have with our institutions. You know, there is a thing that is supposed to happen when you go to the airport and you have a ticket and you get on a plane and you fly from laguardia to charleston, south carolina. The worst thing that is supposed to happen is they lose your suitcase or you spill coffee on your lap. Youre supposed to be able to have faith in a guy and a crew, men and women who come on and say, sit back and well get you there without any problems. A problem came up but they still got in, in one form or another and i think thats always a always a Good American lesson somehow that you can have faith in our institutions. Sully, he was so concerned about the 155 souls on board. Do you know this, i saw it from my apartment. I was the second caller to 911 that morning. I think we have it. Really . Into the hudson river. A u. S. Air oh, my gosh. I saw it and, you know, the only mistake i made that wasnt a crash landing. It was an emergency landing. Forced water landing, robin. Its a very, very distinctive thing but heres the thing so you saw a commercial Airline Plane flying low over the skyline of america. I thought 9 11. There you go. Look what happened instead. I think the amazing thing about the movie and what sully did was what was avoided. New york city in america did not need to see another wrecked plane. And new york city needed a story like this. It was like the timing it was good timing. It was great timing. Can i just the mustache in that scary thing in that mustache you wore. How did rita, your wonderful wife my wife is so sick of the mustache era of my career that its like the first question she asks again, honey, im going to start a job in about six weeks. She says, does this mean youll have to grow facial hair again and i say first of all, calm down, secondly, the good news it will be painted white every day so theres advantages to this in it looked great. Thanks. I follow you on social media. You are like this lost and found if i lose anything i want you gloves and i. D. All yes, yes. What is up with that. You will tie i dont know if its up here but i took a picture of a spatula in times and i just thought who loses a spatula in times square. There is a story behind that lost spatula that its a mystery i must solve. I have to get to it. You got to get to the bottom of it. You know who we have coming up here. You have meg ryan. You came this close to having americas sweethearts reunited on the set of good morning america. Theres meg right there. I love you, sweetie. Ill find you. Ill wait for you. Whatever. Meet you in the park. Lets have hot dogs at that thing by the place with the deal and well get to know each other again. Look at her, fantastic. If you need a spatula you know ill meet you at the spatula in times square. Thats where ki just point out something. This is so surreal. You see that Bubba Gump Shrimp Company right there. Wait, wait, that used to be my bank where i cashed unemployment checks. If you had told me in 1977 where im trying to cash 47 in a check from somebody who doesnt want to give me the cash i wish i could have said this will be a restaurant based on my movie. Thats right, baby. For crying out loud. Come on, everybody. Lets go free appetizers on me. Ill meet you over there. He is like a box of chocolates. Im telling you. A surprise, a surprise. A surprise. Our love to rita. I will extend it. Thank you very much. Can we put him on the payroll and have im here . Get rid of the guy with the gap in his teeth and ill come in every day. Oh, sorry. Sorry. Can somebody not tell me that hes here for crying im here. Thats it. Im taking over the pyramid. Well be right back after this. Americas sweethearts, one of tom hanks favorite costars. Youre not working enough, my friend. Follow your own sense of style. Because, you want to be confident. T. J. Maxx really helped us express our creative side. Thats the best part. You dont know what youre going to find. I always find great deals on shoes. Purses. Were a team. Yeah. Maxx life at t. J. Maxx. How are you doing today . Thats how i am. With the blue cash everyday card you get cash back on purchases with no annual fee. My only concern is that this is where we put food. A dogs foot is cleaner than a humans mouth. Is it . Cleaner than my mouth. Its more than cash back. Its backed by the service and security of american express. Its more than cash back. In 1803, a man bought the territory of louisiana for 42 cents an acre. That was the greatest deal ever. Until i made this one. Now you can get my jumbo breakfast platter for just 2. 99. Take that history. Scrambled eggs, eight mini pancakes, a hash brown, and your choice of bacon or sausage. Its the greatest deal since the louisiana purchase. Sort of. The jumbo breakfast platter just 2. 99 for a limited time. Value, done my way. This is my heartbeat song welcome back. We have with us the one and only meg ryan, everybody. Give it up for meg ryan. Shes going in front of and behind the camera in her if you film ithaca taking a turn as director and star and plays a widowed mother of three boys and see two of them talking about the eldest going off to war. Take a look. Dont go. Dont go. Im not going now. Im just going to school. Papa went and he wont come back. Marcus went. Dont you go too. Homer. Its going to be a long time before i go. Oh, wow, you know what, first of all, congratulations on your directorial debut. Thank you very much. I those two kids so adorable. I was watching the way you were looking i heard the little one stole your heart. He it was insane, i loved him so much and i was just thinking, i remember him trying to sought r outfox me all the time of the it was first time doing a movie and realized i like to do two or three takes so would start doing them, homers going to work. Homers going to work. Homers going to work. Like three takes in one. He was so cute. So cute. And your reallife son plays your eldest son so im curious when youre directing your son is it like telling him to do chores when youre at home. In a way, yeah, but hes like he was so born to it he did his 10,000 hours of directing and writing and acting by the time he was like 10. Wow. So the kids were always around the house making movies and things. By the time he got to my set he had been to Martin Scorseses set and now on Steven Soderberghs set. He has experience. Not a rookie to this. No. A lot of it has been made about this because it is you and tom hanks are reunited. Tom was just here talking to robin. I know. The craziest favor ever. He came for a day. Hes in it for this much time but so adorable that he gathered the crew around after the ten hours that he worked and said im so happy we got to know each other so well in these last ten hours but thank you for being here for my friend meg. You had a nice session on set as well. Looked at your twitter. You have your tag line which is, ill have what shes having. I have a twitter . Yeah, she had what i was having. Who she had what i was having. Somebody got you on my twitter. Somebody tweeting for me. Good to know. Im sure i have one. Thats a funny play on your life from that film but what is it like for you now . Always in front of the camera. You were americas sweetheart. I had the biggest crush on you. I must say that. Im sweating under this suit right now. So what is it like for you now to be behind it was really fun. Its so fun the best part of everything is that theres so many different kinds of artists on a moved set. All kinds and to be in and whispering around with people like sam sheppard in the movie, tom, you know, their process as arc, amazing, d. P. We had this incredible just to understand what actually everyone is finally doing after 30 something movies it was probably about time. Lets just say it that way. You got to know everything going on. Have done sleepless in seattle. Youve got mail, rom cops and youll direct one. They come across funny but theyre tricky and hard to make. Well, theyre probably not hard is not terribly hard but a certain of kind of theyre not exactly funny and theyre not exactly dramatic. Fine line in between. Its a fine line to walk when youre doing a romantic comedy. One thing that youre good at, good if front of the camera, behind the camera. We cant wait to see your movie ithaca which opens in select theaters available on demand this friday so were very excited for you. Your son is in it. That little kid is so cute, meg ryan, everybody.
