There's a time for love and a time for
living. Take a chance and face the wind.

Open road and a road that's hidden.

Friendly life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

Found a trail and at the end was you.

There's a path you take and a path not
taken.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

Not so long, but you might awaken to a
brand new life.

Brand new life. A brand new life both
round the bend.

I don't know why I read the paper.

Everything's so depressing.

It's acid rain, government scandal,
Central America.

Oh, you think that's bad?

Mr. Dithers is about to fire Dagwood.

Mr. Dithers? Is he still alive?

He must be over a hundred. Yeah, and not
a wrinkle.

You want some more coffee?

Oh, yeah, I'll get it. No, no. This is
your day off. I wouldn't think of

interrupting your mindless pursuit.

Oh, well, thank you, Angela.

You're welcome, Tony.

Well, let me make myself comfy here,
huh?

Ooh, boy, this Brenda Starr, she's a
looker.

I'll get it!

Oh, good.

Ooh, major textile.

Knife, pearl, accent.

Trey, preppy.

It should be great. You know what it
cost me?

Practically nothing.

So, what's the big news? Tell us, tell
us. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

wait. What later? What news?

It's no biggie, Dad. I'm just going to
the library.

Oh, decked out like that?

It's a study date.

With who, Calvin Klein?

Samantha, since when do you want study
dates?

Dad, I'm a high school freshman now. My
time is very limited. I have to combine

activities whenever I can.

Oh, good, good. You could smile when you
take out the garbage.

You have to take out the garbage?

Our housekeeper does that.

Whoops. Sorry, Mr. Messiah.

Okay, Sam, who is this young scholar
anyway? And why haven't you mentioned

before? And how come I haven't met him?
Dad, can we continue this in the

kitchen, please? Oh, I'd be delighted.

Excuse us.

Why can't parents just give you money
and leave you alone?

Dad,

look, if you haven't noticed, I'm
growing up. Yeah, yeah, I noticed. Any

I could talk you out of that?

Dad, I'm in high school now and I need
more independence.

You can't ask me about every little
thing. You're right. Who is this guy?

He's someone you don't know. Well, why
don't I know him?

Because I don't know him too well
either.

Well, then how can you go out with a guy
you barely know?

Well, I... Now,

I don't know about this, Samantha. I
mean, we had an agreement. Before you go

out with him, I get to meet him. Come
on, Dad. Loosen up.

Yeah. Yeah, Dad, chill out, man.

I think what Samantha and Mother are
trying to say is that every young girl

needs a little privacy.

I mean, what's the problem if you know
who she's going to be with, where she's

going, and what time she's coming back?

Mason Library, 530.

I guess.

Dad,

I'm pleased.

No more third degree, okay?

Okay. Thank you.

Hmm.

to get to meet this guy?

Meet him?

Uh, well, he's kind of busy.

Well, doesn't he have some free time?

Sure, but even his free time is busy.
You know how it is in college.

Oh, yeah.

Come on, guys. Walk me to the bus. Okay.

Hey, bye, Dad.

Okay, Samantha. Look, have a good time
and don't strain your eyes.

Oh, Julie, that reminds me. I gotta give
your mother that recipe for Grandma's

eggplant parmesan.

But, Dad, I've gotta go.

Go ahead. I'll catch up with you.

Bye -bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.

Oh, Julia.

Sam's got a hot date, huh? Oh, yeah.
He's really hot.

How hot?

Well, he's... Wait a minute.

I know what you're trying to do, Mr.
Maselli, but it won't work.

Oh, you're sharp, Julia. Oh, you're
sharp. Wow.

You know, we can use people like you in
the CIA, and I think they do.

Let's see, where is that recipe?

Let's see.

Oh, hey, but Julia, that's enough. You
mean to tell me you're not even going to

go down there and check this guy out?

Nah, you need ID.

ID? No, I don't think you need an ID to
get in a library.

Sure you do.

No, no, no you don't.

Sometimes you do. Oh, like when? Like
when it's a college.

Aha!

We work well together, Julia.

Samantha, I reserved a table off in the
corner where it's quiet and we can be

alone.

Alone? You know, Mason, it's hard for me
to concentrate when it's too quiet.

Let's just stay out here where the
action is.

Whatever you say.

Thank you.

So, how do you like my library?

Nice.

Lots of books?

Actually, the section on thermonuclear
physics is pretty thin.

Serious bummage.

Good word. You know, you certainly have
your finger on the pulse of American

slang.

I try.

You know, Sam, I've been thinking a lot
about today.

Me too.

Hey, where does the cheerleader sit?

You covered the world from such an
interesting angle.

Thanks.

So, where do they sit?

Oh, I'm sorry. The cheerleaders don't
come here. Only the football players.

Football players?

Here? Sure. They come to see me.

It's a symbiotic relationship.

I help them pass their courses. They let
me use their weight room.

But I guess it's kind of obvious.

Oh, yeah.

Wow. Since this is a study date, I guess
we should study.

Right. I need some periodicals. I have
to get an article on fiber optics and

superconductivity. Hey, do you have to
have a copy of Vogue?

Hey, babe.

Hi.

Skeeter? Skeeter Barnes?

How'd you recognize me out of uniform?

It's me.

Where's Mason? He's supposed to tutor me
in marriage and family.

You know, if I flunk, are they going to
make me give back the Mercedes?

You're kidding.

Boy, life just isn't fair.

Tell me about it. Like this Sunday, I
block this punt, you know, I scoop it

I take the ball the length of the field
for a touchdown.

They call it back?

They don't put my picture in the paper.

Excuse me, sir. Yeah. Are you a student?

No, no, I never was. Good athlete,
though.

I'm looking for my daughter. She's got
brown hair, brown eyes, and a beautiful

smile. Well, that narrows it down to 50
% of the girls on campus.

Yeah, yeah. Well, I'll tell you what.
Picture me in a dress, only younger and

smaller.

Oh, her.

Reading room.

Oh, by the way, you do have a beautiful
smile.

Oh, thanks.

I use a whitener and a brightener.

Careful, a person here.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

My daughter's here on a study date with
some guy, and when I find her, I'm going

to wring his neck.

What does your daughter look like?

Like that.

Oh, no.

What? Nothing.

Then I break the tackle. I head around
the outside here. It was beautiful. I

wide open. You ought to be ashamed of
yourself.

Oh, no.

I can't believe it. How'd you know I was
here?

I have my ways.

Julia is dog meat.

Do you have any idea how old she is, you
cradle robber?

Dad, you've got it all wrong.

I've got it all wrong? Let me tell you
something, Mason.

She is nothing but a freshman in high
school. She's a kid.

Dad, will you listen to me? Hey, pal.

You messed up my story about the three
broken tackles, and I ain't Mason.

Oh.

Skeeter.

Before he gets around.

That's what I've been trying to tell
you. Okay, okay.

If he's not Mason, that's all right.
Because I am not leaving this and nobody

else is leaving until I find this Mason
guy. Where is he?

Thanks, everybody.

You're Mason?

How do you do?

What are you doing up there?

I'm losing my grip.

Samantha?

He can't be over 15.

I can if you let me live.

What are you doing in college?

Majoring in abnormal psychology,
minoring in kinetic physics.

Well, what are you doing in college?

I'm being humiliated by my father.

Samantha, you come back here.

How could you do this to me?

One more level and this will be the
highest house of cards ever built.

You think I can do it, Grandma?

No way.

Mother, that is a terrible way to talk
to a child.

Haven't you ever heard of positive
reinforcement?

Are you getting a double chin?

Hi. Don't slam the door!

Well, look who is here.

The spy.

who came in from the library.

I guess Sam is back.

And she told us everything.

And you ought to be ashamed of yourself.

If you weren't the cook, I would send
you to your room with no dinner.

Oh, sure, sure. Go ahead.

Take her side in this. She probably blew
the whole thing out of proportion.

What did she tell you? She said you
stormed in there, you yelled at a star

football player, you pulled a young,
innocent boy off a ladder, and you

her a kid in front of the entire
library.

Oh, no way, no way. That kid fell off
the ladder. I didn't pull him.

Well, that changes everything.

Well, let me just tell you something.

A college library is no place for a 14
-year -old.

Almost 15. I don't care if she's almost
16.

And anyway, all she had to do was level
with me, you know.

I am not an unreasonable father.

I am a very open -minded parent.

Double.

Don't make a draft.

Isn't this a bitter irony?

He's your type.

He's Sam's type.

Sam's type? What makes you think that?

Tony, all the signs are there.

The new sweater, the new skirt, the
pearl.

She came back brokenhearted.

I'm telling you, she's hurting.

The first cut is the deepest.

Angela, things are bad enough without
quoting Rod Stewart.

All right, all right, all right.

I broke her heart. I'm going to have to
go mend it. It's not going to be easy.

How can you mend a broken heart?

Now to BGs, Angela.

What is this, name that tune?

I'm sorry, I'll let it be.

Where are you going?

Well, it's not too late yet. I'm going
to go find Mason and get those two kids

back together again.

How can you make...

Yeah, he is.

Come on down here.

How are you feeling?

Yeah. Angela,

I've got major father problems.

I know the feeling.

You do? I thought I was your mother.

Yeah, I thought that too.

Sam, when I was about your age, my
father was very protective of me.

And when I had my first high school
dance, he didn't trust my date, so he

volunteered to be a chaperone.

Oh, Angela, that's so embarrassing.

No, embarrassing was when everyone else
was doing the frug, and my father

started a conga line.

I can't believe it. You actually did the
frug?

That's not really the point of the
story, Sam.

The point is, sometimes fathers have a
hard time letting their little

girls grow up.

Tell me about it. So you've got to be
patient.

And you've got to give him room to grow.

Angela, you're making it hard for me to
stay mad.

I'm sorry about that.

And I know something that's going to
make it a lot harder.

Do you know where your father is right
now?

At the mall buying me a new outfit?

No.

No, it's much better than that.

Yeah? Yeah.

He's bringing Mason over here so you two
can get back together.

You mean that's not what you want?

Angela, Mason is shy, awkward, and
innocent. Everything I'm not looking for

guy.

Oh, dear.

Sam, you're never going to guess.

You couldn't find him.

Here he is.

Your boy genius and mine.

Mason Peters.

Hey, babe.

Hey, I taught him that.

Dad, can I speak to you for a minute?

Anytime, sweetheart. Hey, you stay right
here, Mace.

We're on a first syllable basis.

So, Mace, I, uh...

I understand you're majoring in
psychology.

That must really prepare you for life's
little setbacks.

Not really.

Not when you're as vulnerable as I am.

Oh.

Dad, what is he doing here?

Well, look, honey, I thought about it
and I realized that I went crazy again

I made a minor scene and this is my way
of saying I'm sorry.

You really blew it.

Huh? Dad, I don't like Mason.

I mean, not in that way.

Well, what were you doing with him in
the library then?

I wanted to see what the college scene
was like.

The college scene?

Sweetheart, you just got into the high
school scene. What's the rush?

Dad, you don't understand.

Yes, I do. I understand.

I mean, you wanted to feel grown up. I
wanted to feel grown up when I was a

Oh. Dad, please, not another when I was
a kid story.

Samantha, you know, being a kid is a
special time, and you really got to

it. Because before you know it, you'll
be telling your own kid when I was a kid

stories.

Never. I'll just smack him around. It'll
be a lot kinder.

Speaking of kindness, there's a shy,
awkward kid out there who thinks you

like him.

What's going to happen when he finds out
you don't?

You're right.

I didn't think of that.

Well, you're just going to have to tell
him that you won't let me date a college

guy. Oh, well, sorry, Sam, but this one
you're going to have to handle yourself.

Okay.

I'll tell him that you won't let me date
a college guy.

That's not good enough, Sam. You know,
being grown up is more than wearing

preppy clothes and sneaking into
libraries.

If you want me to treat you like a grown
-up, there's a good chance for you to

act like one.

And it's interesting.

Even though Pavlov has given most of the
credit, you know, for the theory of

behavioral conditioning, you've really
got to tip your hat to Harlow and his

monkeys.

Amazing. I never knew that height of it.

Would you mind if I... Not at all.

I'm looking so forward to reading your
thesis.

Excuse me.

Lovely woman.

She didn't understand a word I said.

Mason,

I don't know how to tell you this.

You don't have to.

Your dad filled me in.

I'm crazy about you, too.

Right, he's right in the next room.

Mason, there might have been a slight
misunderstanding here.

Sometimes people go out with people for
the wrong reasons.

I went out with you because you're in
college.

And I wanted to hang out there to
impress my friends and feel grown up.

And I didn't stop to think that you
might get hurt.

Mason, say something.

I'm hurt.

Anything but that.

Is there anything I could do to make you
feel better?

Nah.

Yeah.

Come with me to my homecoming dance.

It'd be great to walk in there with a
babe like you on my arm.

But then you'd be using me.

Yeah. Okay.

If my dad lets me.

Okay, Dad, you can come out now.

How's it going?

Great. I'm going to the homecoming dance
with Mason. Is that okay with you?

That means you didn't tell him what...
Oh, yes, she dumped me, Mr. Methelli,

she did it with such panache.

She'd get that from me, you know.

So, can I go without a parental
chaperone?

Uh, how about parental transportation to
and from?

The best deal you're going to get.

I'll take it. Oh, my girl. Oh, Mason.

Come

on,

it will be fun.

Oh, no way, Angela.

Okay, everybody.

One, two, three, let's go.

Stay tuned for an episode of The Cosby
Show featuring Rudy at her most

No, wait, it's Olivia at her most
adorable.

Okay, so we don't know exactly which
episode is next, but someone in it is

to be at their most adorable.

So keep watching.
