You know, if that chili
doesn't wear off soon,

I'm gonna have to hose
you down.

Oh, shirl.

Hey, where's rerun?

That's what we'd like to know.
He's been gone for hours.

He left to get us tickets
for the doobie brothers'
concert.

Hey man, I can't wait
to see 'em.

Can you believe
the doobie brothers
at our school, man?

Well, I got my ticket.

I waited in line
all last night.
Look at that.

All night?

Weren't you afraid
of being mugged?

Nah.
Who would mug her?

Sorry, shirley.
Ha, ha.

Ha, ha.

Well, where is rerun?

Maybe he got caught
in traffic.

No. Rerun is traffic.

I bet the doobies' make
a lot of money.

No, I hear they're donating
the money to pay
for new band instruments.

[Shirley]
oh!
Man, they are too much.

Speaking of too much.

Hey, guys!
What's happenin'?

What's happenin',
rerun?

Did you get good seats?

Are you kidding?

Nobody has seats
like these.

Ah, great.
Where are we sitting?

Well, we're not right on top
of the stage.

But we're close?
10Th, 11th row?

Back aways.

20Th?
Back.

Rerun, there's only 25 rows
in the school gym.

I know.

So where
are we sittin'?

The corner of 138th,
the manchester.

What?

W-wait, I can explain.

You see, there was
a long line to get tickets.

So to keep up
my strength, I stopped
at a hamburger stand.

So what?

Oh, by the time I got back,
they were out of tickets.

So because you were hungry,
we get nothing?

Well, you want a french fry?

Oh, rerun.

What are
we gonna do now, raj?

We can still get tickets.

How?

The concert's for charity,
isn't it?

Yeah.

Let's beg!

The fat one looks like
the gopher.

Wait a minute. W-wait,
i--i--i'm on the school paper.
Maybe I can get a press pass.

Oh, great,
but what'll I do?

Well, how about
your father?

He's a councilman.
He should be able
to pull a few strings.

I don't know if he'll be able
to help me. See, I'm not
old enough to vote yet.

[Laughs]

Come on, it's worth a try.

Hey, hey, wait a minute.
What about me? I want
to hear the doobies, too.

You got a quarter?
Yeah.

Then play it on the jukebox.

You want somethin' to eat,
rerun?

Yeah, I'll have a hot dog.

Right with, uh, french fries?

Right!

[Clears throat]

Say, um. Say, brother,
excuse me. I don't mean
to seem nosey, but, uh,

I just heard that you
couldn't get no tickets
for the doobie concert, man.

That is too bad.

'Cause the doobie brothers
are some beautiful guys.
Whoo!

You know them?

Man, me and the doobies
go back a long time.

Really?

Yeah, really.

Uh, I'm al dunbar.

Rerun.

Rerun. Well,
look here, rerun.

Here you go, my man.

Wow!

3 Front row seats!

That's right, brother.
They're for you.

Mine?
Mmm-hmm.

What's the catch?

Hey, come on now, man,
ain't no catch.

I just want you to do me
and the doobies a favor.

I'd like to do the doobies
a favor. What is it?

I'd want you
to record the concert.

Me? How can I
record the concert?

Easy, rerun. Just take
a tape recorder inside

And to begin it, turn it on
and turn it off at the end.

Why don't you do it?

[Laughing]

Look, I would love to, man.
I'd really love to.

But if the doobie brothers
see me, they're gonna
start hollering

"Let's sing this one
for brother al," huh?
And they won't be themselves

And we want them
to be themselves.
You understand?

Ok, no problem.

Fine. But look here.

Just don't tell a soul.

Because big stars
like that get
all nervous and shy

When they know
they're being recorded.

Don't worry.

Wow!

Wait'll raj and dwayne
hear about this.

Hey, man, I said,
don't tell a soul.

All right, now look,

Why don't you meet me
back here about 7:30

And I'm gonna supply you
with the tape recorder, right?

And the tickets.

I'll be here.

Right, and to seal the deal

I'm gonna give you
a professional
sound man's salary for a day.

Wow!

$4.

Dad. Hey, hey, hey.

This is your son. Uh-uh.

Uh, dad I need a favor.

See, you gotta get me in
to see the doobie brothers.

They're playing at our school.
Yeah, they're a rock group.

Well, that's sort of
like an orchestra.

Dad, how old are you?

Huh? Never mind.
Yeah, ok, right.
Right, bye.

Sorry, raj.

Well, we still have
one more chance.

I'll call the doobie brothers
and try to get
a press pass from them.

Well, how are you
gonna call them?
I mean a nobody like you.

Or me.

They've got people
who talk to nobodies like us.

They're called
public relations people.

Now, they're
at the bedford hotel.

Dee, I have to use the phone.

Raj, let me remind you.
Who lives in this house
besides you?

You.

And when you live
in another person's house
with another person,

Shouldn't you ask permission
to use what's in
the other person's hand?

Ok. May I use the phone?

May I use the phone what?

May I use the phone please?

When I'm finished.

Dee, this is important.

So is this.

Betty, you'll never guess
what we got
in our house today.

A pay telephone.

If you want to use the phone,
you have to pay a quarter.

Oh, man, this is ridiculous.

There.

Bye.

Ah, hello there, uh,
the doobie brothers' room,
please.

And I'll speak with
any doobie who do be in.

[Laughing]

Uh, hello there.

I be roger thomas,
which doobie you be?

Ah, their press man.
Very good.

I'm the editor of
jefferson high gazette.

The home
and alma mater
of a doobie brother.

And I'd like a press pass.

Great, great! Uh, thank you.

And you keep on pressing.

[Laughs]

You did it.
You got us
the tickets, raj.

No, I didn't.

But, uh,
I did get an interview
for this afternoon.

Well, all right.
At least we get to meet them.

Yeah, but I want
to go to the concert.

[Knocking on door]

Come in.

Hey, what's happenin'?

Oh, it's you.

Ok, if you don't care
that I got tickets,
I'll leave. Goodbye.

Oh, wait.

What tickets?

Well, just
the 3 front row seats I got.

But I can leave, goodbye.

No, come on, rerun.

You're kiddin',
let me see 'em.

Well, I'm gonna pick them up
tonight at 7:30
before the concert.

But how'd you get them?

I met a guy in the soda shop
who works for the doobies.

He gave them to me.

And that's all I can tell you
on an empty stomach.

Dwayne.

Eat, eat, eat.

Well, that's great,
3 front row seats, rerun.

Let me get this straight.

Rerun,

You say some guy
walked up to you
in the soda shop

And gave you
3 front row seat tickets

Free of charge
with no strings attached?

Yeah.

And, raj,
you believe him?

Well, yeah.

And dwayne, you, too?

I guess so, yeah.

You 3 really deserve
each other.

Roger, honey.

Roger, I'm gonna be out
shopping for awhile.

And I want you to watch dee
until I get back

I've made other plans.

Yeah. So have i.

I'm interviewing
the doobie brothers
this afternoon.

That happens to be
my plan, too.

Dee, you can't go.

Mama, this is
official business.

I--i--i--i can't do that
and watch her, too.

Ok, go ahead, raj.

But just remember,

There's a little girl

In this big house with nothing
to do but go in her brother's
secret drawer.

You can go.

Well, now that
that's all over.
I'll see you two later.

[Rerun]
see you later, mrs. T.
Ok.

[Raj]
see you, mama.
Bye, baby.

And, roger, take good care
of your sister.

I'll go with you, raj.
Just to keep an eye on dee.

Me, too. Then I can keep
an eye on rerun.

Oh, great. Now how am I gonna
sneak 3 extra people in.

Easy.we'll all hide
behind rerun.

You want to
try that?

Yeah, you want to do
another one?

Hey!

Quiet, quiet, quiet.
Can't you see
they're rehearsing?

They get crazy
when they're disturbed.

All right,
then we'll be quiet.

Now come on out of here.
Out, out, out!

We said we'd be quiet!

Well, you see
what you did, dee?

You kids will have to leave.
We're getting ready
for a big concert.

Uh, but I'm here
for the interview.

Listen, we're rehearsing
right now.

No, you listen.

We're your fans. And without
your fans you wouldn't
be here rehearsing.

Hey, guys, listen
it's-- that's fine and well.
But usually we--

And don't talk
when I'm in the middle
of a sentence.

Ok, ok, uh,
excuse me,
but who is this kid?

Uh, my sister.
Dee, would you come on
and sit down?

I know what I'm doing.

Whatever you want to know,
just ask.

I'd like to know
if you'll give my brother

An interview
for the high school paper.

Ok, sure. No problem.

Hey, all right!

But first, I want to know
if you'll sing another song.

How about
little darlin'?

Yeah. Let's dedicate this song

That enough bass
for you there, hon?

Um, my name's, um...

Wow, the doobie brothers.

Your name's roger.
He's my brother. I'm dee.

And that is rerun
and that's dwayne.

[Doobie brothers]
hey, rerun and dwayne.

Hi.
Hey, hey, hey.

They're not bright
but at least
they're house broken.

Hey, rerun, I remember you
from miss phillip's class.

Hey, that's right.

It's nice to see you
came back for the concert.

Came back? I'm still here!

Uh, can we get on
with the interview?

Oh. Right. Uh, let me get
you guys' names down.
Ok?

Well, I'm keith,
and this is michael,

Jeffrey, tiran, patrick
down at the end,

Bobby and this is john.

Got it!

[Dee]
the doobie brothers?

What are you, a half brother?

No, we're not really related.

We just sort of depend
on each other.

You know, a lot like you do
with your brother, raj.

You're in big trouble.

Anyway, you guys
are our favorite rock group.

[Doobie brothers]
all right, thanks, man.

Speak
for yourself, raj.

Nothin' personal.
You're just a little before
my time.

Oh, who's
your favorite group?

The jackson four.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.
That's the jackson five.

No, the jackson four.

I'm not too crazy
about one of 'em.

Well, no matter,
after tonight,

I'm sure that we'll be
one of your favorite
rock groups.

I don't want
to go to your concert.

Besides I don't have a ticket.

[All]
oh, we'll get you one.

Don't worry about that.

You can come with me.
You don't need a ticket.
You can be my guest.

You know,
you guys might catch on.

Now we can go
together.

Tsk, lovely.

Hey, guys, I really love
your new album,


So do i.

[Doobie brothers agree]

Well, uh, what's your
biggest problem?

I mean, what gets you
the craziest?

[Doobie brothers murmuring]

Say, i-it's definitely
bootlegging.

Bootlegging.
It's bootlegging.
Yeah.

What's that?

Uh, that's where somebody
illegally records
one of our concerts,

You know, and sells it
to the public.

Yeah, what happens is,
see, the record company
doesn't make any money,

We don't make
any money, and, uh,

The public gets
a pretty bad recording.

Well, how do they
get away with it?

Well, the bootlegger gets
some gullible, unsuspecting,
stupid kid,

Gives him tickets,
and sets him up with
a tape recorder to sneak in.

W-well, what's wrong
with that?

It's the law
for one thing, rerun.

And for another,

If we catch anybody
doing it, he's gonna go
to jail for a long time.

[Doobie brothers agreeing]

Well, can you guys
just yell at him?

[Clattering]

Hurry up, rerun.

Raj, what's with him?
He's been acting weird
all the way home.

Uh, don't worry about it.
Rerun!

Man, this article's
gonna be great!

Hey, raj, can I pose in
the picture with the doobies
after the concert?

Or maybe we'll all
pose in one.

It'll be something
to show our kids someday.

Right, rerun?

After tonight,
I'll never see my kids.

How come?

They don't allow kids
in state penitentiaries.

What are you talking about?

Bootlegging.

But why are you
worried about that?

All the doobies said was that
they usually set up
some stupid kid with money.

Mmm-mmm.

A recorder.

Mmm-mmm.

And tickets.

Mmm-mmm.

Oh, rerun,
you're going to jail.

Rerun, you mean you're getting
the tickets from
a real bootlegger?

Well, maybe the guy I met
really does work
for the doobies.

And maybe my name's
olivia newton john.

Well, what did
he look like?

A normal guy. Just like me.

You're in trouble, man.

Well, look, uh,
it's no big deal, rerun.

We'll forget the tickets,
we won't go to the concert,

And tell them
the whole thing's off!

But I'm scared.

The guy doesn't know
where you live?

No. He found me
in the soda shop.

Then he does know
where you live.

Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh.

Now, look, there ain't
no way that you are gonna
back out of this, fat head.

No, listen!

I will blow the whistle
on this whole operation.

I am with the press.

Oh, yeah? What paper?

the jefferson high gazette.

The who?

the jefferson
high school gazette.

Boy, you better sit down
and pay attention.

Yes, sir.

Now, look.

Since you friend
opened up his big mouth

You are all, all of you
in this together.

Uh-uh.

What did you say?

Uh-huh.

[Laughs]

Now, uh, first, now, you,

You turn the, uh,
the recorder on and off.
Right?

A-a-a-and you--

Oh, mr. Dunbar,
we really can't do this.

Ok, kids, if you really
can't do it, it's...

It's fine with me.

But see, you're
gong to have to tell

Brother bruno here that
he's not gonna get paid.

Uh...

Brother bruno, would you
please pull up a chair
so I can talk to you.

Sure.

[Creaking]

You said I push this
for record, right?

Yeah, that's right.

[dee]
next on what's happening:
rerun gets in more trouble

with the doobie brothers.

Ok, the tape recorder
is all set. How do I look?
