tear ducts

oh poor kids having a tough time in high

school there's got to be something we

can do well having a few beers it'd make

me feel better but that's really boring

we should go talk to her dance teacher

maybe she'll change your mind since when

are we the parents who run to the school

and cry foul every time our kid has a

problem okay let's go out no I'm talking

about anywhere

[Applause]

[Music]

Madeline's Beck the girl with the

ponchos I haven't seen her in years yeah

Lauren needed to feel accepted and she

really seemed to understand right you

bad that apartment the world to her we

should go down and talk to Madeleine

first thing tomorrow Judy we can't go

down there well if you don't want to go

fine I'll go by myself no you can't why

not I guess I know why Lauren lost her

monologue why because of my baby soft

skin of my elegant hands what I think

Madeline gable or in the park because

she has a thing for me and she took it

away because Billy doesn't play that

game that game be I'm not believe me I'm

picking up vibes everybody always talked

about vibes I never felt fides Judy

these are vibes are you sure yeah I'm

sure she wrote me a personal note she

invited me over for chili to her house

at night when the Sun Goes Down I know

what night is and the day after I say no

she takes lawns monologue away well

maybe she's hitting on you well you know

what you gotta go do ya tell her I'm a

married man and she should keep her

hands off no you got to go down there

and shake it for

you gotta get Lauren her monologue taxes

it seems so wrong prudence do you think

it's an accident I wear a halter top

every time we buy a major appliance

we're just wearing that so I go to the

store with you they stripped many

purposes wife wants you to go down with

the school and flirt with your

daughter's hot drama teacher my wife has

a cow when I hang on to mrs.

Butterworth's bottle too don't it to get

Lauren her part back or Judy's feeling

saucy and she's just using Lauren as an

excuse so you'll invite Matlin home for

a little while with whatever you do

stick around make sure she doesn't start

anything come on it oh hi Madeline

though where's all the other parents oh

I canceled the rehearsal this morning I

must have forgotten to call you but I'm

glad you're here I could use some help

with the sex that's why Danny and I are

here you remember Danny Fitzsimmons from

high school oh yeah diani yep Danny's

gonna hang around here and help yes

lay down on the bed what I got to make

sure the Lighting's right in the bedroom

scene oh okay Oh perfect right in the

hot spot it's something wrong you look

tense well I have kind of a problem

Laurens feelings were really hurt when

you cut a monologue from the show oh

that's right you know this could be the

answer to my problem Amy's got mono and

I need someone to play the part of town

maybe Warren control that'd be great

it's a really big part though she might

not have time to learn it I'm sure she'd

be willing to do

well she is a very bright girl in a heck

of an actress all but there's no time to

change the costumes are you sure of

course they are about the same size you

know it's worth a sh*t oh I think so too

[Laughter]

[Music]

Warren Miller would like to dedicate his

performance to her mother and father for

authoring hers oh I am so happy for

Lauren because it turns out that it was

put at middle and hit a little thing for

bill huh wait well you know about that

oh yeah you tell me all about it oh what

a relief it to keep that secret anymore

worried about I mean it's not what you

care who bill had sex with 20 years ago

happened 20 years ago and it meant

nothing well let's not say it meant

nothing are you talking about come on
