 * Hannah is still at the Seder dinner with her family. She is able to drink watered down wine for the first time and is really excited. Her mom didn't want her to, but her grandpa persuaded her to let her. Hannah is almost 13, and the grandpa thought it should be time. Aaron wants to find and hide the afikoman. He finds it under the grandpa's chair. His grandpa always hid it there so that it would be easy for the kid to find. When Aaron found it, he went into the bathroom, flushed the toilet to make the adults think that he was using the bathroom, and hid the afikoman under some towels in the dirty laundry basket. The adults could not find it and Aaron wants a baseball mitt. He is able to keep the afikoman until his grandpa gets him the baseball mitt. Next it was time to pass Elijah's cup around the table and pour some wine into it. Hannah was feeling funny in her head, so she dumps her whole cup in saying, " Elijah can have it all." Hannah and Aaron's grandpa is very impressed at Hannah's generosity and tells her that she can have the honor of opening the door for Elijah. When Hannah opened the door, she found a different scenery and a man with a shapeless cap on his head, hoe over his shoulder, and he was singing. She thought that she had too much wine. **
