"Would it be possible to tell me if there is a Samantha Baker there?" "And if so, sir, may I converse with her briefly?" "Yes, it is." "And no, you may not." "Might I leave a message, sir?" "He wants to leave a message for Sam." "Here, give me that phone." "Now, you listen to me, mister." "God did not put me on this earth to be awakened by filthy suggestions... from a foul-mouthed hooligan like you." "And as for our granddaughter, I'm sure she has more than enough sense... to stay clear of the likes of you!" "Now, good night and good-bye!" "That was great." "Sam's lucky she has us, Howard." "Yeah." "Even if she doesn't appreciate us." "Do you promise you won't get mad?" "No, I love you." "Okay, close your eyes." "Scalpel." "Scalpel." "Oooh!" "My God." "That was wonderful.!" "I don't know how to thank you enough." "My pleasure." "My God.!" "Wow." "I hope they have insurance." "The party's over." "What a disaster." "Jake!" "Sam." "Sweetheart?" "Daddy?" "Hi, kiddo." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "Everything's fine." "I was just upstairs, and I couldn't sleep." "I feel like a real jerk, honey." "We forgot your birthday." "I bet you're really P.O. 'd, huh?" "No, it's okay." "I'm not really all that upset anymore." "This wedding is really turning this entire house inside out." "And I just came down to tell you that we did remember." "Thanks, Dad." "Happy birthday." "Is something else wrong?" "No, why?" "I don't know, I just get the feeling that something's bothering you." "Something other than your birthday." "No, I'm fine." "Really." "I think I know what it is." "It has to do with a certain guy?" "I know, honey." "I know." "We're all upset that Ginny's marrying a bohunk." "What's the matter?" "I meantJake." "Jake?" "Wait a minute." "I thought she said his name was Rudy." "Forget it." "Forget what?" "Who's Jake?" "He's a boy, Daddy." "It's nothing." "Okay?" "Just forget it, please." "Come on, Sam." "We're not communicating." "It's extremely embarrassing, okay?" "What's embarrassing?" "Sitting in the dark with your dad, telling him about your love life." "I'm afraid you lost me again, Sam." "Jake is a senior, and he's beautiful and perfect." "I like him a real lot, and he doesn't like me." "Okay?" "Oh." "And he's got this incredible girlfriend." "I'm just this ridiculous dork that's following him around like a puppy." "Why do you think you're a dork?" "I don't think you're a dork." "I don't think Mom thinks you're a dork." " Mike thinks I'm a dork." " Mike is a dork." "But so am I." "Well, if it's any consolation, I love you." "And if this guy can't see in you all the beautiful and wonderful things that I see, then he's got the problem." "I know." "It just hurts." "That's why they call them crushes." "If they were easy, they'd call 'em something else." "But if I were Ginny," "I'd have this guy crawling on his knees." "Well, let me tell you something about Ginny." "Now, I love her as much as I love you." "But she's a different person." "Sometimes I worry about her." "When you're given things kind of easily, you don't always appreciate them." "With you, I'm not worried." "When it happens to you, Samantha, it'll be forever." "Well, I don't think I'll be able to sleep if I don't feel this little talk has helped you." "So would you be a sport and lie to me?" "Yeah, sure, Daddy." "Good night, sweetheart." "Good night." "Oh, one more thing, sweetheart." "What?" "When you do find the right guy, don't let him boss you around." "Make sure he knows you wear the pants in the family." "These are really hers?" "Yeah." "How did you get 'em?" "She gave 'em to me." "Did you- No!" "No,Jake." "She's crying for you." "I told her you asked about her." "Right?" "The girl freaked." "She had a hissy." "She thinks you're the cat's meow." "Really?" "Yeah." "She came up to me in the gym tonight." "She looked at me like I was a leper." "Girls'll do that,Jake." "You see, they know guys are, like, in perpetual heat, right?" "They know this shit." "And they enjoy pumping us up." "It's pure power politics, I'm tellin' you." "I thought she hated my guts." "Games,Jake." "Silly, torturous games." "You know how many times a week I go without lunch because some bitch borrows my lunch money?" "Any halfway decent girl can rob me blind!" "Because I'm too torqued up to say no." "It's heinous, I'm telling you." "You better not be dicking' me around." "It'd be a major downer to try and get together... and find out she really does think I'm a slime." "Jake, would I dick you?" "Let me put it to you this way." "What happens to me if I dick you?" "I'd kick your ass." "Right." "So why would I lie?" "But I feel compelled to mention,Jake, if all you want is a piece of ass, I mean," "I'll either do it myself, or get someone bigger than me, to kick your ass." "I mean, not many girls in contemporary American society today... would give their underwear to help a geek like me." "I can get a piece of ass anytime I want." "Shit, I got Caroline in my bedroom right now, passed out cold." "I could violate her ten different ways if I wanted to." "What are you waiting for?" "I don't know." "She's beautiful, and she's built and all that." "I'm just not interested anymore." "Does that really matter, guy?" "Yeah, it matters." "She's totally insensitive." "Look what she did to my house." "She doesn't know shit about love." "Only thing she cares about is partying." "I want a serious girlfriend." "Somebody I can love, that's gonna love me back." "Is that psycho?" "That's beautiful,Jake." "I think a ton of guys feel the same way as you do." "Really?" "Yeah." "It's just they don't" " They don't have the balls to admit it." "You know?" "They're just- They're wimps." "Samantha's, uh" " She's really special, you know?" "I'll make a deal with you." "Let me keep these." "I'll let you take Caroline home." "But you gotta make sure she gets home." "You can't leave her in some parking lot somewhere." "Okay?" "Jake, I'm only a freshman." "So?" "She's so blitzed, she won't know the difference." "Jake, I don't have a car." "You can take mine." "Jake, I don't have a license." "I trust you." "Jake, I'd love to." "I can't." "Want a pretzel?" "You sure?" "Positive." "I got her." "You got her?" "Yeah." "Is this, uh, your car, Jake?" "No, this is my dad's car." "You said you couldn't drive a stick." "This is a mother" "This is a Rolls-Royce, Jake." "So?" "So!" "So." "I heard the grill alone cost five grand on this." "Five grand!" "I don't have five grand." "Then don't hit anything." "Ahh, don't hit anything." "Do you want to do this or not?" "No." "Who the hell?" "Who does he" "Mm-hmm." "Mmm." "Who's he?" "That's me." "Who are you?" "I'm him." "Oh." "Okay." "She's totally gone." "Have fun." "Thanks." "Jake, is your dad a big man, or" " About 6'4"." "Very nice." "Ho." "Ohh." "Oh." "Ho." "Easy." "Easy." "#Hey, sucker #" "# What the hell's got into you #" "#Hey, sucker ##" "Oh, sexy girlfriend." "Banzai!" "Think they liked us?" "Definitely." "Whoo!" "Go, darling geek!" "Uh, could we turn that music down?" "I'm a first-time driver." "I need to concentrate." "Excuse me!" "Stop that." "Looks like rain." "Better put the top up!" "Will you stop that?" "You can get us in a lot of trouble doin' that!" "This is a car!" "It hasn't got Triple A on it." "Chugalug, Pooh bear." "I can't believe you're so popular, acting like this." "Relax!" "Hello?" "Oh, uh, I don't know." "I'll have to look." "Mr. Ryan, are you in here?" "He's not" " Mr. Ryan's not in right now." "My Christmas present to you!" "Thank you." "No." "Really." "Serious." "See?" "See?" "Thank you." "Now we're both on the pill!" "You gave me a birth control pill?" "You have any idea what that'll do to a guy my age?" "I know exactly what it'll do to a girl my age." ""Just climb in the car!" Shit." "It makes it okay to be super careless." "Wait, wait!" "Ha-ha!" "Look, we're not going any further until you stop these childish antics." "Don't be such a poop." "Huh." "On second thought." "I love you." "This is getting good." "Ted, what the hell are you doing?" "Are those humongous jocks back?" "Do you have any film in your camera?" "What?" "Take those ridiculous things off." "Do you have any film in your camera?" "Sure." "Okay." "Go get it and bring it outside." "Okay?" "Right out front." "What for?" "Look,just get it and come on out front, okay?" "U.F.O.?" "It's better." "Extraterrestrial?" "It's better!" "All right?" "Just get it and come outside." "Female extraterrestrial?" "It's better than- Shh!" "Better than female extraterrestrial?" "How do you tell if it's a female?" "'Cause it's got tits." "What makes 'em different than regular tits?" "They got four." "Just get the camera." "It's in the closet." "Don't go in the closet." "Such assholes." "I can't believe it." "You should check that out." "Why do you always have to argue?" "I'm not arguing." "I am not!" "I am not!" "Yes, you are." "Yes, you are." "Every time I do something, bitch, bitch, bitch." "Bitch is a female dog." "I am not even." "What's that supposed to mean?" "Shit!" "Shoot!" "Ted, that's a Rolls-Royce." "Ted, that's the prom queen." "You got two girls in one night." "I told you dudes I was hot." "Hot?" "You're a legend!" "Will you shut up?" "People around here work, all right?" "Will you hurry it up?" "I'm breaking, like, 30 major laws here." "You know, Ted, nobody's gonna believe you." "No way." "That, my friends, is what the pictures are for." "Okay?" "Just get that thing there." " Are you guys ready?" " Wait, hold on." "Put it down just a bit." "You guys know what you're doing here?" "All right, just a minute." "How's this look?" "Very nice." "Wait, black and white." "It would capture the moment so nicely." "Oooh." "Will you take the picture already?" "You're pissin' me off, I'm tellin' ya." "Smile, pumpkin." "What?" "Oh!" "Pictures!" "Cheers!" "Marlene!" "Ohh!" "Chill out, boy." "Mike, honey." "Go get dressed." "I can't believe it." "Ginny's not in the shower." "I wouldn't go in there." "Grandpa Fred was in there for a half an hour." "It's totally polluted." "Get dressed." "It's your nose." "They never listen." "What was he wearing?" "Well, he would have" "He was wearing a red argyle sweater and tan trousers." "Mmm." "And red shoes." "Hmm?" "No, he's not retarded." "Now, what can I do to help?" "Well, you could finish the French toast." "Good." "I'll, uh" " I'll just open the doughnuts." "Good thinking." "Oops." "Don't wanna lose the nails." "I'll just wait till I hear from you, then." "Voila." "Breakfast is ready." "Oh, Sam." "Sam, I am so sorry about your birthday." "It's okay." "I'll recover." "It's important to you." "And yesterday morning, you were trying to tell me." "It's okay, Mom." "These things sometimes happen." "Oh, honey, I just feel miserable." "You'll feel better." "Who died?" "Uh" "Is there something you want to say to your sister?" "What?" "Are you kidding?" "Where should I start?" "I mean about her birthday." "It was yesterday." "We all forgot." "Classic." "Deep down, he's really sorry." "No, he's not." "I have to go to this wedding and look like Miss Pretty Princess... in this dipshit's bridesmaid's dress." "I don't have one-tenth of the bod to fill the stupid bust up." "So what?" "Should I just waste myself and spare the agony?" "I was gonna tell you something, but maybe I shouldn't." "It's pretty bad." "You may as well." "Nothing could shock me anymore." "Last night at the dance, my little brother paid a buck to see your underwear." "Geez!" "I hate that rock 'n' roll rubbish!" "Well, I'm afraid it's here to stay, Howie." "Sam, you're dragging your dress, honey." "Pick it up." "Come on, Ginny." "Hurry up, Susie." "Why is she so slow?" "Do not fuss at your sister." "It's her wedding day." "Big deal." "All right, is everybody in?" "Oh, dear." "Are you all right, Ginny?" "Come on, everybody." "Get in the car, please." "We're late already." "Helen, will you get in the car?" "I don't know what they're fussing about." "Helen, get in the car!" "Hey, Howard, there's your Chinaman." "Thanks, Fred." "Bye, Dong." "What the" " What's he doin' on the ground there?" "What happened?" "Hold a mirror in front of his mouth." "Howard!" "He's dead!" "Aw, shit." "I pay seven grand for a wedding, I'll never see it!" "Oh, watch your language, Mr. Dirty Mouth." "Oh, thank God, he is still warm." "Oh, good." "Here, I-I'll help you." "Roll him over." "Ugh." "Canine cologne." "Oh, no more yankee my wankee." "The Donger need food!" "Hell, he's three sheets to the wind!" "He's drunk as a skunk!" "Shut up, Fred." "Shut up." "Dong!" "Dong." "Dong, Grandpa is talking to you." "Dong.!" "Where is my automobile?" "Automobile?" "Lake." "Big lake." "Ohh!" " Why, you little scuzzbag!" "Oh, my." "Is everything all right?" "I was afraid you'd had an accident." "I wish." "Her monthly bill came early." "Well, she's fine." "Uh, she just took a muscle relaxer." "Try four." "You didn't." "Mother!" "Damn, Mom!" "I've got my headgear on." "Will you wake up?" "Where the hell am I?" "I'll, uh, tell you where you are, if you'll tell me who you are." "Farmer Ted." "You're in the parking lot across the street from my church." "You own a church?" "What happened?" "I have no idea." "Did I do that to your hair?" "At this point, anything is possible." "Um, I" " Uh" "Did, um" "Did we, uh- Yeah." "I'm pretty sure." "Um, excuse me, but do you" "Do you know if- Um, did I enjoy it?" "Am I nuts?" "Of course I enjoyed it." "I mean, um" " What I meant was, uh, did you?" "Hmm." "You know, I have this weird feeling I did." "Here, Ginny." "Drink this." "Come on." "Here." "Wow." "Do I feel funky!" "Uh-huh." "Okay." "I'm comin'." "Hello?" "Geez, this place is so confusing." "Okay." "Go away!" "I call F.I.B.!" "I call police!" "Go away.!" "Open the door." "No way,Jose!" "Open the door." "You beat up my face!" "You grabbed my nuts." "Is that you?" "Yeah." "That me." "Oh, I'm so sorry." "I thought you my new- new-style American girlfriend." "Forget it, man." "Just get Samantha, all right?" "She not here." "Don't jerk me around, man." "Where is she?" " She got married." " What?" "She at the church." "She getting married to oily bohunk." "Married?" "Married." "Married?" "Yeah." "Married." "Married?" "Married.!" "Geez." "Are you gonna be all right, sweetie?" "It's gonna be a piece of cake, Bren." "Um, Ginny, I'm really happy for you." "I'm sorry for being kind of a jerk lately." "That's really lovely, Sam." "I know you'll have a great marriage." "Ginny.!" " Holy shit!" " She just had a cramp." "I don't care what she's got.!" "Look at her.!" "Will you be quiet?" "We don't want to announce that she has her period.!" "I guess those guys who thought we had to get married feel pretty stupid, huh, Padre?"
