You can do it.
Well,
I-I don't know.
Well,
sure you can, honey.
Anybody who can read and count
can deal blackjack. Now...
You have a jack
and a .
Now, what's the rule
with showing?
What do you do?
It's up to you.
A jack...
...and a .
This could take
all night.
Maybe I better call my folks
and tell 'em not to expect me.
RICKY:
That's a good idea.
Hey, Dad, is it okay if
Greg sleeps over?
If it's okay
with his folks.
I'll call my mom
and find out.
May I please
use your phone?
Yeah, sure.
It's in the kitchen.
Will you excuse me
please, sir.
Oh, sure, Greg.
Oh. Thank you, sir.
What's the matter
with that kid?
Nothing. He's just a rare bird
called a polite teenager.
It ain't natural.
How come we haven't seen
Greg before?
He just transferred
to our school last week.
I've been
showing him around.
Ah. Seems like
a nice kid.
You know,
I think I finally got
the hang of it--
The jack is wild,
right?
Here's your sandwich.
Cream cheese?
You don't like it?
I didn't say that.
I even squeezed a pimento
out of an olive
to make it look
especially nice.
That's very nice, Marie.
This will be fine.
Don't patronize me.
Marie, you're new here.
You probably don't know
how to treat me yet.
Are you gonna eat
that sandwich or not?
[SIGHS LOUDLY]
Well...
Mom said it's okay,
and to thank you
for the invitation.
So...thank you
for the invitation.
Great.
Well, honey, with
all this excitement...
[YAWNS]
...I'm falling asleep.
[CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]
It's no use, Edward.
I'll never learn to deal
blackjack by tomorrow night.
I'd better deal poker.
You don't know
the first thing about poker.
Well, you
can teach me.
We're gonna hit the sack,
Dad, okay? Good night.
Good night, Mrs. Stratton,
Mr. Stratton.
Good night, Mr. Stuffins.
DEXTER: Good night.
Good night, Marie.
MARIE: Uh-huh.
Thanks again
for letting me sleep over.
No
problem.
Do you have
to be so polite?
[SCOFFS]
I can't help it.
Old people bring out
the worst in me.
So you like to party?
Of course. Who doesn't?
Great.
'Cause I know this guy,
and his parents have left him
alone in his house.
And he's throwing a party
tonight. So you wanna go?
No, I've got a lacrosse game
before school tomorrow.
Well, this is gonna be
a very, very special party.
What's so special about it?
Well, if you wanna find out,
come with me.
Hey, can I borrow this jacket?
Yeah, sure.
Excellent.
[CHUCKLES]
So? Are you coming?
I don't know.
Hey, come on, now.
Don't be chicken.
Greg, I'm not chicken.
Good. Then let's go.
How late
would we be?
What's the difference?
We sneak out, we sneak back in.
I don't have to
sneak out.
If I wanted to go,
I'd just ask my Dad.
[SCOFFS]
Are you kidding?
No father in his right mind
is gonna let his kid go
to this party.
That good, huh?
Hmm.
We'll have fun,
even if the girls do outnumber
the guys five to one.
Five to one?
And maybe more.
Well, if it means
that much to you...
Yeah.
[CLAPS]
What are you doing?
Just in case anyone
looks in on you.
Sleep tight,
Ricker.
Yeah! All right!
Yes!
Marie,
you're a lifesaver.
If you weren't here
the next couple weeks,
I would be
going crazy.
That's why I get
the big bucks.
Ugh, I've got the auditors
coming in,
Edward's Monte Carlo night,
my Mercedes making
funny noises...
Yeah. Life can be such a drag.
Morning, Marie.
Good morning, Mr. Stratton.
Boys aren't up yet?
Oh, I called 'em. No answer.
We'll let 'em sleep
for five more minutes.
[SHOUTING]
Yo!
You wanna eat,
get on your feet!
[NORMALLY]
That oughta wake 'em up.
Woke me up.
[SNIFFS]
Coast is clear.
Come on.
I'm sick.
Where are we?
We're home.
You can open your eyes now.
If I open my eyes,
my brains will ooze out.
[SCOFFS]
Did you ever see so much
booze in your life?
Wow, what a party, huh?
Greg...
...tell me the truth.
Last night...
...did I eat a cat?
[LAUGHS]
Not that I noticed.
Why?
'Cause my tongue
feels like a fur ball.
See, I-- I told you
you'd have a good time.
Greg,
you can keep my jacket
if you sneak in the house
and get me a can
of ice-cold apple juice.
[SCOFFS]
We'll get it together.
Now, come on.
I can't go inside.
They'll know we've stayed out
all night drinking.
Not if you do
what I tell you.
Now, just wait here
a minute, okay?
And here. Use this.
[GROANS]
Okay. Now when we
get inside,
I want you to shout,
"Hi! we're home!"
I can't shout.
My head will explode.
The thing to do is--
Is smile and be bright.
Do everything I do.
Nobody will know anything.
Believe me, I've done this
a hundred times.
Well, how come you're not dead?
'Cause I know
how to handle it.
[SIGHS]
I can't face
my parents like this.
Well, you know what
I always do?
What?
[SNICKERS]
This.
[RETCHES]
[SCOFFS]
Amateurs!
[GROANS]
False alarm.
Open wide.
Here.
Where are those boys?
These eggs are getting cold.
Hi, Dad.
Hi, Kate.
Hello, Marie. Do we have
any apple juice?
Where you guys been?
Well, we've been--
We got up early
and jogged to the market.
And I bought you these
as a thank-you gift
for your hospitality.
Oh! Well,
thank you very much.
That's very thoughtful
of you.
But didn't Rick tell you
that we have holly trees
in the garden?
Well, yes,
he did.
But I think that you'll find
this variety has more berries.
Ah, I think
you're right.
Oh, we're out
of apple juice.
But how about this--
prune juice?
Never mind.
Well, these eggs
have been sitting here
for more than minutes.
Don't blame me if
they're cold and greasy.
Well, personally,
I prefer them like this.
Now why doesn't that
surprise me?
Rick, you look like
death warmed over.
Are you all right?
Dad, I've never felt
better in my life.
What time did you two
sack out last night?
Oh, we went to sleep
real early.
And then we got up and
got dressed and went jogging.
In those clothes?
Uh, well... Uh... Well--
[COUGHS]
Ooh!
What's the matter?
My throat hurts
when I talk.
Let me see
your eyes.
Are your eyes
bloodshot?
Uh... Well, yes,
they are, sir.
They always get like this when
I'm coming down with the flu.
Well, do you think
you should be going to school
if you're coming down
with the flu?
You don't wanna give germs
to everyone in class.
Oh. I hadn't thought of that.
Uh, do you think it be okay
if I stayed here in bed
until my mom comes home
from work?
I'll phone her, of course.
Wha-- Uh, sure.
Marie can keep an eye on you.
Just don't breathe on me,
okay?
Oh, no.
I think I'm catching it too.
[COUGHS]
I thought you just said
you felt great.
I did?
Oh, right.
But shouldn't I stay here
and keep Greg company?
He doesn't need company,
he needs rest.
Besides that, don't you have
a lacrosse game today?
Yeah, I do. This morning.
If you hurry, Kate and I
will drop you off at school.
And Rick?
Yeah?
Don't forget
the body checks!
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
Ooh!
[SCOFFS]
Hey, how much money
have you got on you?
Mmm.
Rick, money! I need money.
How much have you got?
What do you
need money for?
Uh... I've got a date.
A date?
Yeah. With this
great-looking model.
I'm meeting her at
Rockefeller Center today,
and I need $
to take her to lunch.
All I've got is $ .
[SCOFFS]
Look...
this is really important
to me, Rick.
And don't forget who took you
to that party last night.
How could I forget?
Well, if you told your Dad
how badly you needed
a new lacrosse stick...
Oh, hi, Mr. Stratton.
You need a new lacrosse stick?
Huh?
Oh, yeah.
Well, you see,
my old one is really...
old.
See how it does today,
and then we'll talk.
We'd better hurry up.
Have a good day, sir.
You too, Greg.
I hope you feel better.
GREG:
Thank you, sir.
Here. You can--
You can have this.
Three dollars? Come on.
What kind of a lunch am I
supposed to buy with that?
You said she's a model.
They don't eat.
Two hundred and
forty-three, , ' ...
[EXHALES]
Hi, Dexter, Hi, Marie.
Hi.
Hi, Rick.
How was the game?
Long. Real long.
Well, your friend Greg
sure made a quick recovery.
Yeah?
What time did he leave?
Well, I was too busy
to pay attention,
but I think it was halfway
through The Price is Right.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
Hey, guys! Look at
this little honey, huh?
[LAUGHS]
Bet she bankrupted a few
Mississippi riverboat gamblers
in her day.
That's impossible.
Oh, no, it's not.
This baby's
over years old.
I'm talking about the bank.
We're $ short.
Oh, no.
I make it $ .
We're $ short.
Are you sure, Dexter?
I'm an accountant
with a degree from Harvard.
Of course I'm sure.
I think.
Well, it doesn't
make sense.
Why would somebody take $
and leave over ?
Well, maybe they
felt sorry for someone
dumb enough to leave
that much money lying around.
No offense.
Well, I guess we should be
grateful it's only $ .
Well, $ will send
another kid to camp.
Or reform school.
Now, if I was a betting lady,
which I'm not,
I'd lay to that
some overly polite--
He didn't steal it.
Who?
Greg, Dad.
Why on earth would--
He borrowed it.
You can't take a fashion model
out to lunch on $ .
Am I the only one having
a problem following the story?
Probably.
You'd better start
from the begin--
I've got the costumes
you needed.
Well, thanks, Kate.
Why-- Why, Rick--
Ooh,
that reminds me.
I borrowed $ from
the bank this morning.
Uh-oh.
I put it back.
Uh... I-I think
I'd better try on my cost--
This looks expensive.
Must be mine. Heh, heh.
Okay. Listen, about
my dealing poker tonight--
Yeah, just
one sec, Kate.
Rick, why would you think
a nice guy like Greg
would steal--
Borrow money?
I don't know, I just did.
What money?
Unless you know
something we don't.
No, Dad, there's nothing.
What about Greg?
I just made a mistake.
He said something about
needing money,
so I just put two and two
together, and...
And I've got homework to do.
[♪♪♪]
I look like the doorman
at the Hilton.
No, you don't.

[DOORBELL RINGS]
[STAMMERING]
They're here already?
We don't have the banner up.
Where's the banner?
[NORMALLY] Where's the banner?
The banner?
The banner-- Over here!
Over here!
I got it!
Hey, Greg. come on in.
How you doing, buddy?
All right.
Ooh, nice.
Ah, evening, sir.
Good evening, ma'am.
Good evening, sir.
Hi, Greg.
Hi, Greg.
Hi, Greg.
So are you gonna stay
around for the fun?
Well, no, sir.
As a matter of fact,
I was hoping
to entice Rick here
into joining my old friends
and me at Burgers.
Well,
not tonight, Greg.
I've got to stay
and help. Right?
Oh, no, son,
you go ahead.
We got plenty of wranglers
here, heh, heh!
I don't know, Dad.
Uh, will you excuse us
for a minute, please?
KATE:
Okay.
Look, I've got
a little surprise for ya.
See that door?
That's a surprise?
Just open the door.
What's behind there?
You'll see.
Girls!
Very good.
This is
Debbie.
She's with
me.
Hi.
And this
is Allison.
She's
with you.
Hi, Rick. Greg told me
you were cute,
and he was right.
[GIGGLES]
Thanks.
Come on in.
Getting ready
for a party?
My folks are.
Mr. and Mrs. Stratton,
Mr. Stuffins,
may I present Allison Galt
and Debbie Curtan.
Hi, how you doin'?
Hi. Nice to meet you.
Can we
help out?
Tell you what, you can help us
with some of these balloons.
Uh, Rick, can I talk to you
for a second?
Yeah.
Ooh...
What are you doing?
Checking.
What for?
It's my hobby.
I like to check cupboards.
Did you go
into the city today?
What?
You know,
to see that model.
What model?
Oh! Uh, no.
something came up.
Ah, yes!
Hey, that's Dad's!
Don't get excited,
it's just a loaner.
Come on.
Put it back.
Relax.
I'll replace it.
Give it to me,
Greg.
Hey, come on! Will you cool it?
Come on.
What are you guys doing?
[CHUCKLES]
Nothing.
Well, let's go.
You are coming,
aren't you, Rick?
I don't know.
Oh, come on.
Please?
Well, okay.
That's better.
Well, come on. Let's go!
All right. Dad, we're just
going to Burgers, okay?
Okay, son.
You guys are amazing.
Where do you get your energy,
out of a bottle?
[LAUGHS]
Well, goodbye, Mrs. Stratton,
goodbye, Mr. Stratton.
Goodbye, Mr. Stuffins.
ALL [IN UNISON]:
Goodbye, Greg!
Hey, guys,
do you think this sign
looks professional enough?
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
Be glad we got it
right-side-up.
Long Branch Saloon.
Hey, hi, Malcolm!
What do you mean,
you can't make it?
You're the only one
that can run the crap table!
T-there are
people coming, Malcolm!
Can't you wait till tomorrow?
[EXHALES]
Well...
If you have to be there...
I guess I understand.
I hope it's a boy.
No, I don't.
I hope it's a girl!
Kate...
do you think you can
handle a crap table?
Are you serious?
This is the most complicated
game there is.
Even I don't know
how to do it.
Well, isn't this the game
where a sh**t has to throw
a or on his first try
to make a pass?
Or else, make his point
before he throws a .
And if he throws
a or a or a ,
he craps out?
Well, isn't it?
That's incredible.
Oh. Thanks, heh.
[CHUCKLES]
Oh, just one question:
Do you throw four
or six dice?
[RADIO PLAYING]
Let's put the top up.
I'm freezing.
You wanna
come over here?
I like your idea
even better.
Hey, you guys want
some of this, hmm?
No.
Good, 'cause
you can't have any.
Hey, come on, get some
decent music. That's garbage.
[RADIO CRACKLES]
[ROCK 'N' ROLL PLAYING]
How do you guys
know Greg?
He used to go to our school.
Oh, I almost forgot.
I've got something
for you.
Where did this beer
come from?
Milwaukee, I guess.
[GIGGLES]
Ahem, the thing is,
Allison, like...
You see, I quit.
Well, one beer
won't hurt you, will it?
No. I guess--
Guess not. Thanks.
It was really a panic when Greg
got kicked out of school.
Did he tell you about it?
He got kicked out
of school?
Yeah. He got drunk
and tried to kiss
the vice principal.
Greg said she reminded him
of his father.
You know...
I want to dance.
Sit down, Greg.
I wanna dance.
Come on.
Look, I think we should go.
He's pretty drunk.
Hey! Nobody's drunk...
And nobody goes.
Hey, gimme the keys.
Get out of here, will ya'?
Hmm...
Now, what do we do?
Wait until he passes out.
This happens all the time.
You've gotta be kidding.
We could try to
make the best of it.
[CHUCKLES]
[RUSTLING]
What was that?
What was what?
I thought I heard something.
I guess I was wrong.
Wanna share that?
What?
Oh. Yeah, sure.
COP:
Police! What's going on here?
Having a good time?
Yeah.
Are we doing as well as I think?
Edward, Kate,
just in case
I don't see you again,
I'd like to thank you
for trusting me with
this much money. Bye!
I'll take that,
stranger.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
Ooh, it's : ,
and they're still arriving.
Don't let 'em in until you see
the color of their money.
Mr. Stratton?
Yeah.
What's the matter?
Rick,
what's going on?
Is there a problem?
Is he all right?
COP:
We found your son
and some of his friends
drinking in the back
of a parked car.
There must be
some mistake.
