Hello!

Hello!

[YELLING]

Hello!

Dad, what are you

doing here?

I live here, remember?

Right down the hall.

Come on. I wish you'd

knock before you come in.

I did knock.

Long and hard

and loud.

Well,

I didn't hear you, Dad.

I'm not surprised. You'll go

deaf listening to that music.

What?

Just kidding.

Just kidding.

Well, I wasn't.

Oh, come on, Dad.

David Lee Roth

is very, very in.

He's also very, very loud.

Now I'll tell you what.

Turn down the volume.

And no more screaming

into the hair dryer.

Come on, Dad,

think way back.

Didn't you ever

sing along to music?

Not into

a hair dryer.

Any guy who did,

kept it a secret.

Son, do me a favor

and straighten up the room.

It drives Kate crazy.

Dad, if it's my room, why

can't I have it the way I want.

Because when you live in our

home, there are certain rules.

Now, get a rake

and clean up this room.

[EXHALES]

[RICK & KATE SCREAM]

I can't believe

what goes on here.

I get no privacy

at all.

Look, the next time

I take a shower,

I'll let you guys know.

You can sell tickets.

[EXHALES]

Rick, I think

you're overreacting.

No, I'm not, Dad.

You wouldn't like it

if Kate walked in on you

in your birthday suit.

Well, would you?

Absolutely not.

Dad, it was humiliating.

Rick, I didn't see

anything.

I mean,

those things happen.

It's part

of being a family.

Well, Kate,

it shouldn't happen.

I don't go barging

into your room.

What? I didn't barge in.

The door was open.

I was just

picking up a little.

Kate, I like my things

where I throw them.

Rick...

Dad...

I think it's time

for a change.

What kind

of change?

Dad, Kate...

I'm moving out.

What do you mean,

"moving out"?

You're only .

Yeah, you're too young

to go out on your own.

there a lot of trouble

you can get into.

Without half trying.

Muggers, robbers...

The crazies.

It's too rough

out there, son.

Out where, Dad?

I just wanna move into

the guest house.

Our guest house?

You mean, out back?

Yes.

Look, my loud music

wouldn't bother you.

You don't have to

look at my messy room.

Ooh, he's got a point.

Well, if you're out there,

and we're in here,

we're no longer

a family.

That's not true, Dad. It's only

steps away. I counted.

Look, I'll visit

whenever I smell food.

What about your curfew?

What about study hours?

What about letting us know

where you are?

Dad, I can still do that.

Living alone

is such a big step.

Are you sure

you can handle it?

Absolutely, Kate.

Come on, Dad,

it's only out back.

What do you think,

Edward?

Well, I guess

we could try it.

Thanks, guys, heh.

Thanks a lot.

I'm gonna go start

moving right now.

I'll help you.

Dad, Dad, Dad,

if I'm old enough

to have my own place,

I'm old enough to handle

the move by myself.

[♪♪♪]

[GRUNTS]

I'm so glad you decided to

handle this move by yourself.

Thanks for the help, Dad.

Just put them in the corner.

Okay.

[GRUNTS]

I think

I'll just stay here

until my body returns

to its original shape.

Ooh.

There. How does

that look, huh?

Looks pretty good.

Edward!

I mean the picture.

Ah.

It's gonna be so great

living here on my own.

By the way, I hooked up

this intercom, Rick.

Dad, what do I need

an intercom for?

Oh, so you can talk to us

whenever you want.

I'll just walk over.

It's only steps, Kate.

When we want

to talk to you.

Well, then

you can walk over.

What about

your privacy?

How does this thing work?

All you have to do is

push this button

when you want us,

and we buzz

when we want you.

Fine. Heh.

Okay, then guys, I guess

that just about does it, huh.

Yeah, it looks

pretty good.

Yeah.

Yeah, it does.

Well, I can't wait

to be alone.

Oh! Heh. Remember,

[CHUCKLES]

if there's anything

you need, just buzz.

I will, Kate.

Well, son...

...I guess

this is good-bye.

Dad, I'm not leaving

the country.

I'm not even

leaving the yard.

Come on.

All right!

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]

♪ But it's home

Ow! ♪

♪ The only life

I ever known ♪

[LAUGHS]

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

[BUZZ]

Yes.

EDWARD [OVER INTERCOM]:

We're over here now.

I know, Dad.

How are things

over there?

So far, so good.

You sure?

I'm positive, Dad.

Everything's fine.

It's so nice to hear

your voice again.

Oh.

Well, good-bye, Rick.

Good-bye, Dad.

EDWARD & KATE:

We love you.

Thank you.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Oh, wow.

Hey, you weren't

putting us on.

All right, Rick.

This is

really rad.

Pretty nice, huh?

Nice? This is beyond nice.

You've broken new ground here.

Your own digs

at , wow.

Your own entrance.

You'll make

the teenager's hall of fame.

Guys, it's not that big

a deal. Come on.

Are you kiddin'?

Even Sean Penn didn't move

out of his parents' house

until he married

Madonna.

Madonna had her own place

when she was .

Right.

I heard that.

It'll be great.

No one telling me what to do.

I can't get over this.

You really pulled it off,

on your own.

No parents looking

over your shoulder,

no one

watching your every move.

No one bugging you.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

What was

that?

What-what--

What was what?

[INTERCOM BUZZING]

That. That--that buzzing sound.

This is really weird,

man.

This is exactly how

Poltergeist started.

It's coming from--

From over there.

[BUZZING CONTINUES]

Oh, you guys mean the,

heh, the intercom.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

Yes.

KATE [OVER INTERCOM]:

Are you there?

I'm here, Kate.

Speak up.

I'm here!

I'm making

some cocoa.

Do you want some?

No, thank you, Kate.

Okay. You got

enough blankets?

Kate, I'm fine.

Towels? Toilet paper?

Kate, I don't need

anything, okay?

I'll speak to you

tomorrow.

Okay. Good night.

Sleep tight.

Don't let

the bedbugs bite.

KATE & EDWARD:

We love you.

We love you too,

Rick.

You want a marshmallow

in your cocoa?

[BOTH LAUGH]

All right, all right,

all right, come on, guys.

That's no way to

treat our good buddy.

guy who's always there

when we need him.

Frankie, whatever you want,

the answer's no.

All right, look,

just hear me out.

See, uh, I've been dating

this girl, Melissa.

A real knockout.

I met her.

So what does that

have to do with me?

Well, uh, we've been dating

a while,

but we've never been

alone together,

if you know what I mean.

And I thought

maybe tomorrow night,

you'd let me, uh...

Bring Melissa

over here?

Hey, that's a terrific

idea, Rick.

No, no---

Can I bring a girl over

the next night?

Wait, you don't have

a girl.

Not now, but with this place,

it shouldn't take long.

Yeah, well,

I got a girl.

Kind of.

Look, guys,

I didn't move out here

just so you could bring

girls over.

Oh. I am disappointed

in you, Rick.

Do you think

I'd come over here

without bringing someone

for you?

What do you mean?

I mean, Melissa

has a friend.

A friend?

Uh-huh.

Her name is Candy.

Huh? Huh?

[CHUCKLING] Candy?

And this Candy won't

give you any cavities.

I met her.

So what do you say?

I'll bring them over

at : ?

I won't be back till .

I have a Science Club meeting.

Oh, well, that's okay.

Why don't you give me the key?

We'll wait for you.

Frankie, I don't know--

Uh.

Think about Candy. Huh?

[♪♪♪]

Oh, um,

sorry I'm late.

My Science Club

meeting ran long.

I had to put away

all the frogs.

It's all right.

Uh... We had

things to do.

Melissa, this is Rick...

our landlord.

Hi, Rick. You've got

a terrific place here.

Thanks.

So Frankie,

is it just you two?

Uh...not exactly.

Uh, Rick,

this is Candy.

Wow!

Hi, Rick.

Is this your place?

Yeah,

it's all mine.

You're so lucky.

Boy,

you can say that again.

We were just looking at

the tennis court.

We?

Uh, yeah. This is

my friend, Davey.

Nice place

you got here, Nick.

That's Rick.

Whatever.

Frankie, can I talk

to you, please?

This is not exactly

the best time, Rick.

Did I show you

my new earring?

Well, hey, let me see.

[GIGGLES]

CANDY:

Stop that, Davey, heh.

SIGHS]

Hey, wait a minute,

Nick.

That's Rick.

You wouldn't have any

romantic music, would you?

And could you

dim the lights, please.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

Boy, this is a great way

to do homework, huh?

Yeah, it is.

Come on, Eric, deal.

Let's go. Come on.

All right, how about

a little He-Man Poker, huh?

Oh, I hate

that game.

Tough. Dealer's choice.

All right. Twos, threes, fours,

eights and s are wild,

jacks or better to open.

Sorry, guys.

We have no more popcorn.

No more popcorn? You mean,

the stores are all out?

No, I don't get

enough allowance

to cater a party

every night, guys.

Okay, whoa, you can't take

this all on yourself, pal.

We'll chip in.

I appreciate that, Frankie.

Here's my IOU

for a quarter.

I don't have any paper,

so I owe you an IOU.

Yeah, me too.

Do we have any more

potato chips?

I'll go check.

Okay, and try and get

the kind with the ridges.

They go better with dip.

And get some dip.

Whoa.

I didn't know anybody

was gonna be here.

We'll come back later.

Let me ask you something.

How did you have

a key to my place?

Frankie gave me one.

Frankie?

Frankie.

Yeah?

You gave my key

to a stranger?

He's no stranger. He's in

my remedial reading class.

Besides, I still

have your key.

That was a copy.

See?

[SCOFFS]

I don't believe this.

We're still waiting for

the potato chips.

And the dip.

Well, excuse me.

How long has

he been gone, Kate?

Who?

Rick.

How soon you forget.

He's only been gone

two days.

You raise them,

you worry,

then they leave you.

He's only out back

in the guest house.

Well, that's

the first step, Kate.

Another year or two,

he'll be away at college.

And then he'll be home

for summers and vacations.

Yeah...

Unless he meets a girl.

Next thing you know, he gets

married, they have children.

We'll never

see them either.

Hi. Are there any more

potato chips, Kate?

Oh, sure. You come running back

when you need something.

Huh?

Don't pay any attention

to your father.

He's just upset

because you don't bring

the grandchildren around.

I'm sure

there's some logic behind this,

but right now,

I need chips, that's all.

Heh, I think you and

your friends ate them all.

There's some pretzels

in the pantry.

EDWARD:

You guys are working up

an appetite.

What are you studying,

anyway?

Um... You know, the usual.

You know, kings and queens.

Heh.

Pretty boring.

I better get to it.

Good night.

KATE: Good night.

EDWARD: Good night.

These guy have been

studying all night.

Wonder if they ever

take a break?

ALFONSO:

Yeah. It's hard

to believe

you can have this much fun

on a school night.

I've never seen so many

tall women in my life.

Rick,

I've been thinking.

We're showing these people

too good a time.

We ought to

charge admission.

After a few weeks,

we'd have enough money

to put a hot tub in here.

We?

Ah, but that'll

come later.

You know, I wouldn't be

surprised if you ended up

being elected

class president.

What do you suppose

is going on out there?

Sounds like they

got tired of studying.

is about.

Noise?

there's some party going on.

I'm afraid of.

What are you gonna do?

Go peek in the window?

Certainly not.

Seen my binoculars

around here anywhere?

Hi, Dad. Hi, Kate.

Hi.

Boy, this is

a nice, quiet room, heh.

So warm and cozy

Guess you just

don't appreciate something

till you've left it, huh?

Ah.

How are things

out at your place?

Well, it--

It was going okay until

the poker game got out of hand.

Then when the girls showed up--

Girls!

What kind of poker

were you playing?

Maybe you should

move back in.

Well, she has

a very good point. Dad.

You saying things

are getting out of control?

Yeah, I guess

you could say that.

What do you want me

to do about it?

Want me to go

break up the party?

No, no, I wouldn't

want that.

If my dad comes out

and breaks it up,

I'll look like a nerd.

What are you gonna do?

I think

I'll call the cops.

I mean, if the cops

come break it up,

I'll be a hero

in school tomorrow.

I don't think

that's a very good idea.

Well, come on, Dad,

what else can I do?

I can't kick out

my own friends.

Well, are they being

such great friends right now?

Sure they are.

Besides breaking

my lamp and tapes

and turning me into

a butler.

Not so great, I guess.

I think you should

go out there

and tell your friends

how you really feel.

Right. And then they're

gonna tell me how they feel.

You know, moving out wasn't

such a good idea after all.

Well, Rick--

Kate...

And I wish

you luck, son.

Thanks.

Why did you do that?

I mean, I thought

you wanted him to come home.

I do.

But he wanted

to run home.

There's

a big difference.

I want him

to go out there, Kate,

and face his problems

like an adult.

I want him to learn to stand on

his own two feet, like a man.

Mm-hm.

Then I'll make

my little boy come home.

Come on, guys.

Hey, hey,

hold on, buddy.

please put it in here.

Thanks a lot.

This place is a mess.

If you're gonna

live by yourself,

you gotta learn

to be neater.

What?

I'll help you clean it up

this time.

Don't make a habit of it.

What do you mean,

we have to help too?

Yeah. Who knows, we might

get invited back sometime.
