There's more to life than what you're lit.

Take a chance and face the wind.

An open road and a road that's hit. Brand new life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

Found a trail that at the end was you.

There's a path we take and a path not take. The choice is up to you, my

Nights are long, but you might awake. Grand life, grand life, grand life

around the bend.

For all the girls you love before.

Hey, hey, hey.

Beth,

Tony.

What do you think?

Is this okay for the PTA meeting?

Oh, terrific, terrific.

Very parental.

Well, that takes care of the P.

What about the T and A?

Angela!

You've been hanging out with your mother too much.

Oh.

Hello. Oh, hello, Mrs. Ryan. How are you? Angela, Jonathan is using my blow

dryer on his hamster.

Jonathan?

I gave him a bath.

I want him to look nice and fluffy for the babysitter.

Andrew, you've got to see this monster's hair. It's puffed out to here. He looks

like Don King.

I hope it heals fast, Mrs. Ryan.

No, no, I don't think the Johnson kids got rabies.

All right, look, I'll tell her. Bye -bye.

As you might have guessed, Mrs. Ryan can't make it.

Oh, no.

Where are we going to get another babysitter?

Mother, how nice to see you.

Forget it.

But I am not babysitting. You never let me bring my boyfriends over.

Tony and I have a very important meeting.

Well, I have a date.

Mother, are those Grammy's diamond earrings?

Oh, must be very special. He is. He's a jeweler.

And does he know his carrots?

On the other hand, perhaps I should go with naked lobes and let him dress them.

You're really stinking.

Well, who's going to babysit?

Well, what about Samantha? Mother, Samantha's never babysat before. I think

might be a problem.

Not for me. I'm leaving.

Kitchen. Kitchen.

Eavesdrop. Eavesdrop.

I think it's a terrific idea, don't you?

Well... Oh, come on. What's the matter? Don't you trust my daughter?

Well... Angela, we're going to be a couple hours. That's all. I mean, what

happen? Have you ever seen Halloween 2?

Tony, it's a very big responsibility.

Samantha's only 13 years old.

Okay, okay. You're right, Angela. You're right.

Now, you go out there and tell that little girl you don't trust her.

You could be responsible for the scars she has to carry through the rest of her

life.

Don't you think you're over -dramatizing?

Actually, I was playing it down, Angela.

Well, I'll just be over at the school.

Oh, all right. She can babysit.

Manta.

As you might have heard, we have the utmost confidence in you.

Just remember, Jonathan's eight years old, and his life is in your hands.

Hey, that's why I get two bucks an hour.

Dollar fifty.

You know where we'll be if you need us.

Dr. Riley's number is right there by the phone. Okay. By the police, the fire

department, and the paramedics.

And the National Guard.

Goodbye, Mom.

Goodbye, my darling.

Come on. I mean, what happened? This turned into one life to live here?

Let's blow this fire trap.

I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.

Now, Sam, no TV until you finish your homework. Stay off that phone and no

in this house. Dad, you forgot. Don't open the door to a man with an axe.

Or a chainsaw.

Bye.

Yes, yes, I do look good in diamonds, don't I?

Well... Jonathan!

Jonathan, what are you doing?

My science homework like you told me to do. I just proved that metal is harder

than M &M's.

Ooh, Grandma's diamond -earing.

I wonder what's harder, a hammer or a diamond.

Jonathan, I want the earring. Here it is.

Yeah, well, I hope he's got long, skinny fingers.

It's Chad McCann.

Sure, and I'm Don Johnson.

Diamonds are in the sink. Chad McCann is at the door.

It's Chad McKenna.

I heard you were babysitting.

Oh, wait till you hear that.

Hey, the grapevine ends in my ear.

This is the coolest guy in the junior high.

Can it, squirt.

We dropped the diamond earring down the drain.

We? Hey, I can fix that, no problem. Wait a second.

I can't let you in.

You want me to fix it from here?

I'm good, but I'm not that good.

What are we going to do, Sam?

I don't know.

Good decision.

Good decision.

I guess it's a good decision.

What does the earring look like?

Well, it's a diamond. About a half a carat.

What difference does it make? Just hand me all the earrings you find.

Is that it?

Oh, Chad, you're wonderful.

Why fight public opinion?

Oh, brother.

While I'm down here, these pipes are really full of gunk. I'm so embarrassed.

Oh, no.

I don't believe this.

What's the matter?

There's something stuck in here.

Well, what is it?

My hand.

You're stuck?

Uh, I think I'd better brush my teeth and get ready for bed now.

I have under my sink?

No, besides the mousetrap.

If you want your child to care about school, you have to show that you

care. That's why I am so delighted to see all of you involved parents here for

tonight's discussion on parent apathy.

You know, I think it's a darn shame that more parents aren't involved with their

kids. I don't even have kids. I just come for the sponge cake.

If we don't listen, disaster.

Chaos in the house.

Oh, that must be Marcy.

Oh, thanks, Marcy. You're the best. Bye.

You have Chad and a can under the sink, and you won't even let me in?

Marcy, I'm not supposed to let any kids in the house.

You let him in.

Hi, Chad.

Hi, Marcy.

Well, as long as it's just you.

Hi, guys.

Hi, Chad.

Marcy. Okay, so I mentioned it to Robin, but I told her not to tell anybody.

Such a good time.

But you've got to get out before someone comes home.

Oh, it's too late.

Bless me, Father Fryman.

11. I changed my mind about the earrings.

Ah, here they are.

I thought that he should see that I like nice things.

Good, good idea, Mona. Have a great time.

What are you doing?

I'm thirsty. I thought I'd get a drink. No, you don't want water.

You want something good for you, like orange juice.

Oh, it's all that vitamin C gets into your blood and it's so good for you.

idea. Yeah. Thank you.

5 -11 waiting.

Hi, Mona.

Sorry about the O .J.

Well, I guess it's not just for breakfast anymore.

Okay, guys, she's gone. Oh, that was a close one.

Excuse me.

Tony, could we please go home now?

Angela, I'm in the middle of a very important conversation here. Mellow out.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Aren't you the least little bit concerned?

No, I have complete faith in Samantha.

And Jonathan.

They're good kids.

Yeah, you're right.

I guess it's time to cut the cord.

At least tie it off for 20 minutes, will you?

There you go.

There you go. Look at that. You're Tony Maselli? Yeah.

I'm Mike McCann, Chad's father. Oh, how you doing? Sit down, sit down.

You know, I got to meet this kid. I heard so much about him. I thought maybe

got there tonight before you left.

There where?

Your place.

He was going over to see Sam.

It's too bad because Sam was babysitting and she promised me, you know, no kids

in the house.

Well, that kid of mine is a real charmer.

Girls just can't say no to him.

Excuse me.

Come on, ladies, let's go home.

What is it? Is there trouble at home? No, no, no. There will be when I get

there. Let's go. Come on.

Such a waste. No!

Oh, gross!

Julia!

I'm free.

I'm free! You're free!

I, uh,

didn't

mean to get butter on you.

It's okay.

this pipe back together.

Yeah, I guess you better.

I'm never going to wash this shirt again.

Hey, Sam.

Jonathan, I thought you were in bed.

I was, but the car woke me up. Why won't you...

We should leave.

Good idea, Julia. Out, please.

Out,

out, out.

Hey, you want me to explain things to your old man?

No. You're only 14. You have your whole life ahead of you.

Bye, bye, bye, bye.

Later.

Hi. Hi.

Hi. Hi.

Yo.

Look what I found in the driveway.

I'm going to check on Jonathan.

Sam, I think guests should leave from the front door, don't you?

Right, Dad.

Let's go.

I know you, and I know you, and you, and you.

You I don't know.

Dad, I'd like you to meet Chad McCann.

How do you do, sir?

Chad McCann, nice to meet you. Hit the road.

Much later.

Samantha, I am not only incredibly disappointed in you, but think about

put poor Angela through. She's really upset.

Well, Jonathan is sleeping like a baby. Everything is fine.

Well, all's well that ends well.

Let's leave Shakespeare out of this.

All I know is you better have a great explanation for what went on here

No, it's nothing for you to worry about, sweetheart.

Spill it.

Okay.

Well, see, Chad stopped by.

And I told him that. I told him he couldn't come in.

But he said he could fix the sink and that it would only take a minute.

What's wrong with the sink? Well, it's kind of hard to say.

Well, give it a shot.

Something? Wait a minute.

I have something to say about Sam and what happened tonight.

Well, what do you want to tell us, sweetheart?

Well, Sam was the best babysitter I ever had.

That's it.

That's very nice.

You're grounded for a month. A month. Now get in there and let's clean that

kitchen. Let's go.

I'll help.

Isn't he sweet?

Tony, aren't you being a little too harsh on her? Me, harsh?

Ha!

When you were a kid and babysitting, did you let boys in the house?

No, never.

I would have.

She's lying to me, Angela.

Tony, if I were a little girl and I was looking into your frightening face, I

might be tempted to lie, too.

How come you didn't tell what really happened, Sam?

I knew that I was in trouble for sure, and I didn't see any reason to get you

trouble, too.

Wow.

Well, you know, I figure you're as close as I'm going to

get to having a little brother.

kitchen. What are you doing with the onion?

Getting you an early pearl.

Frightening?

This face is the soul of compassion.

You wipe your face, you go in the kitchen and you get yourself a glass of

Can I have cookies, too?

Yes, my darling Angela, you can have cookies, too.

Take it easy on the kid, will you, Angela?

Well, these cookies won't taste any good without someone to share them with.

All right, all right. You're off the hook, too.

We'll get some cookies. Thanks.

You're real good, kid. I know.

Onions? Onions.

Well, they really stuck up for each other. Yeah, they really did. That's

terrific. It is. It sure is.

How much of that story do you think is true?

Maybe all.

Maybe not.

Some? Enough.

That's what I thought.

Got that chest, soldier?

Ready? All right.

At ease.

All right.

Everything looks ship -shape.
