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.
Brand new 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 have waited
to a brand new life, a brand new life, a

brand new life around me.

Hey, Moan, Moan. I'm doing my taxing.

And you're just in time for the exciting
climax.

Oh.

Here goes, Mona.

That was good.

I'll say. Hey, Mona.

I'm getting a refund of $8 ,600.

What a great country.

Oh, wait a minute.

No, no, no. No, make that $860.

Well, it's still a good country, huh?

Hi, Dad.

Anything I can help you with around the
house?

What did you buy?

Just some new boots.

Uh -oh. They look like they came from an
Italian cow.

How much?

Less than you think.

How much? They were on sale. How much?
$90. How much?

Good deal. Where did you get them? Mona,
who cares where she got them? How did

you pay for them, Sam?

I used the credit card you gave me.

Sam, that credit card was for
emergencies only.

It was the last pair they had.

There was tugging and pulling and
biting.

You did the only thing you could, dear.

Look.

I'd love to buy you a new pair of boots,
but it's just not in the budget.

I'll pay you back. You can take it out
of my allowance. Sam, Sam, that's what

you always say, Sam. You just finished
saying that about that Sting concert

ticket and the stereo headphones and the
ski trip.

I'm in so deep. What's one more?

Samantha, I live within a budget. You
live within a budget.

Everybody lives within a budget, except
the government.

And me.

And that's another thing.

What kind of role model are you? One
that any shallow, materialistic person

would be glad to look up to.

Dad, look, it's different from when you
were a kid. The cost of being a teenager

has gone up since the 50s. The 60s,
Samantha.

Like ever, when people liked Wayne
Newton.

All right, all right, all right.

Someday, you're going to be out on your
own. You're going to be making your own

money. And when that day comes, you can
spend it any way you want. Until then,

you've got to live within your means.

And your means are my means. You know
what that means?

No boots. No boots.

Come on. Okay, I'll take them back.

I'm going to make some other size six
very happy. Go ahead.

You're going to buy them for her, aren't
you? I am not one of those indulgent

fathers.

I'm going to raise her allowance.

Hey, after all, I am getting 860 bucks
back, right?

Oh, no, oh, no. Make that $8 .60.

Hey, Mom, what you doing?

Casting models for an ad.

I'd give her a seven. Huh?

Whoa, make that a ten. What's her name?

Tawny with an I.

Jonathan, don't you have a lizard to
feed?

I'm tired of cold -blooded creatures.

Oh, that one's a real dog.

Jonathan, that is a sexist and demeaning
way to talk about women.

Ooh, woof, woof.

What's the account?

It's Summit Sporting Goods. We're doing
some print ads.

How much do these girls make?

Oh, I start about $125 an hour.

Dollars? Yes.

That's one and a half pairs of boots an
hour.

Angela, do you think I could be a model?
Sure she could if she wore a ski mask.

Why don't I leave?

So, what do you think? Is there
something that I could do?

Now that you mention it, your father and
I talked about this before.

You did?

Yes, and we decided that modeling wasn't
such a great idea.

We?

Well, more he than me.

So what do you think?

Well, personally, I don't see any harm
in it. But, you know, he just doesn't

want you involved in that high
-pressure, fast -paced world.

He thinks that modeling is nothing but
money, men, and wild parties.

Yes, and there are disadvantages, too.

In fact, Mother, there are. You know, a
model can be over the hill by the time

she's 19.

Who's talking about a career? This would
just be a one -time thing. I think it's

a wonderful idea.

Angela, listen to your mother.

Well, it would be great to work
together, but you know your father. Yes,

know you.

You are a high -powered ad exec. You
sell things for a living.

Sell him.

Sell him!

Sell him in his old town.

Everybody's trying to put me down.

I'm a baby.

What?

Angela has something to sell you. I
mean, tell you.

Hit it, Angela.

Tony, I don't think it would be such a
terrible thing if Sam took a modeling

job. What?

Now, Tony, I told Sam how you felt, and
she understands your concern.

Perfectly. But there's nothing to be
concerned about. She's going to be

sports equipment, ski wear. She'll be
covered from head to toe.

Parker's up to here. What more do you
want? Yeah, Dad, it would give me a

to make my own money, and it would just
be a one -time thing. Please, please.

Come on, Tony.

One -time thing. I'll have to think
about it.

Did you hear that? He's got to think
about it. That means you got it. It

I'll think about it.

Am I rushing you?

You got it.

What

do

you think?

Wow, Samantha.

Look at you.

Oh, Sam.

I think that's a little bit too much lip
gloss, isn't it? Hang on a second.

Here.

Okay, here. Come on. Blot. Like this.

That's much better, much better. Looks
good, eh?

Did I thank you for letting me do this?
Oh, about 360 times, but don't let that

stop you. Thank you. All right.

Oh,

you look fabulous.

You ready to go in front of the cameras?

Don't pressure her.

Don't pressure her.

Sam, look, if you're having second
thoughts about this, we walk right out

door, forget all about it, okay?

Dad, I'm okay. Hey, it's okay. I can do
this. See? A little nervous is good.

Gets the adrenaline pumping.

Pumping. Well, good. All right,
everybody. Let's get the show on the

will start with the group shots. All
right.

Tony.

Excuse me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Okay, kids.

Have fun up there. Big smiles.

Big smiles.

Good, good.

Good. Uh, Sam, not such a big smile.
Hey, hey. Lay off her. She's just a kid.

That's it. That's it. Good. Good.
Better.

Great. Now let's see a little more
action, everybody.

Let's see your overhead smash.

Great. Great.

Let's see the golf swing.

Terrific. Shush, Dave. Shush. Oh, I love
it. I love it.

Steve, why don't you move a little
closer to Sam?

Closer. Closer.

Closer. That's close enough.

How do you expect it to shush?

All right. Where were we?

Sharon, let's see your backhand.

Nice. Very nice.

Steve, why don't you put your arm around
Sam?

Angela, can I have a word with you?

Well,

don't you see what's happening here?
Tony, we're all trying to do our work.

Yeah, but a skier and a golfer touching,
it's all wrong. Neither is a contact

spawn, Angela.

Steve.

Tony, sit.

What? Sit.

Sit? Or you can wait outside.

I'm sitting.

Okay, let's get back to work.

Sharon, um...

A little more action, a little more
life, a little more, more like Samantha.

Good.

Yeah, I like it, I like it.

Hey, buddy, come on, huh? We trying to
clean up here, please?

Yeah, sorry. Thank you.

So, Mark, how'd I do? I really want to
know what you think.

You were terrific.

I knew it.

It felt so right. All right, I'd love to
do it again. No problem. Any friend of

Angela's is a friend of mine. I'll give
you a call.

Great.

So, what was that all about?

Mark thinks I'm good.

Oh, good?

You're a natural.

She could get a lot of work.

You stay home.

I'm obviously a creative threat to that
guy.

Hey, Dave.

Oh, and this is so much fun, I can't
believe I get paid, too.

Dad, look.

Look, I'm rich.

Come on, Sam. You're not rich.

But you are incredibly comfortable.

I think I found my after -school job.

No, no, no. Hold on a minute, Sam. Hold
on here. They thought we agreed that

this was a one -time thing.

Can it be a few more times thing? A few
more times thing will turn into an all

-the -time thing, Sam. I mean, you'll
miss school.

You'll be wearing gook on your face.
You'll be dating bi -coastal rock stars.

Oh, Dad, give me a little credit.

All right, Sam.

All right. Look, to tell you the truth,
for me, I don't like the business.

You know what I mean? The fast book, the
fast life. You know, it's a glamour

trap, Sam.

But if you think you know better and
you're willing to go ahead with this,

regardless of your father's advice, I
won't stop you.

Thank you.

I forgot to give Mark my phone number.

Hey, Mark, wait up.

Wasn't this a nice day?

Everything went so well and Sam's so
happy. Yeah, and it's all your fault.

The pain is coming! The pain is coming!

Ow!

The pain is here!

Look!

Look! Here it is!

Oh, I don't see you. Look, I'm right
there. I'm shushing.

See, I told you you look beautiful.

Yeah, babe, you're a knockout.

Forget you. Look at Tawny. Now there's a
man's woman.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What's all the commotion? Look, look,
look. I'm famous.

Oh, Sam.

Wow, you make a beautiful snow bunny.

Doesn't she?

Oh, Mother, we better get ready for
work.

Start without me. I'm going back to bed.

You're fired.

I don't care.

Oh, gee, Sam.

Hey, what do you say we cut that out and
save it so you can show your grandkids

that you modeled once?

Dad, I'll model again. You heard what
Mark said. I'm going to get a lot of

off of this.

Well, yeah, honey, but look, it's been a
whole week, and your photographer's yet

to call. Dad, he'll call.

Well, maybe he will. Maybe he will, but
until he does, I was thinking, you

know... It costs more today to be a
teenager than it did back in the 60s.

And I was thinking maybe I could swing a
little raise in your allowance. What do

you say?

Wow. A raise in my allowance?

Hey, five bucks a week. Retroactive for
a whole month.

Oh, Dad, that's so sweet. Thank you.

I still don't understand why Mark hasn't
called.

Uh -oh.

Last night, he wants you to be at the
studio at 4 o 'clock Saturday.

Oh, right!

I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! You are
dead meat.

I've got to go call Mark.

Dad, you could keep this. Is it this
great? I won't be needing it now.

I could use it.

We'd like to meet with one of your
models.

Tawny, with an I.

Are you talking to one of your little
friends?

Uh -huh. Oh, well, good.

Why don't you invite him over so you two
can play together?

Hello?

For some daffodil to cheer you up.

Hey, I don't need no cheering up. I'm
fine. Ow!

Do you ever think that maybe you're a
little blue because Sam's in a modeling

job?

Angela, it's not the modeling.

It's just that a kid Sam's age, she
doesn't know how to handle all that

Sure she does. She won't get carried
away. She's got her feet firmly planted

the ground.

Major shopping spree!

What do you mean, shopping? What do you
mean, shopping? I thought you had a

work. I did, and it was great. And then
we hit the old retail trail.

a feeling to walk through Bloomingdale's
and be able to buy anything you want.

It's happening.

Let me show you what I got. Little
somethings for the people I love.

And look for you, your favorite perfume.

Obsession. We wanted to get passion,
but, uh... Who are we

kidding?

Sam, I gotta go. Thanks for the bath
beads. I will share them with somebody I

love.

And, Dad, for you, remember that sweater
you liked that you said that you'd buy

one day if it was ever on sale?

It was on sale?

Who needs a sale?

And now, so you don't think I'm totally
generous, I bought a little something

for the working girl.

Get a load of these.

Oh, wow.

Gee, $300?

Gee, that's more than I paid for my van,
and they threw in a dashboard hula

girl.

This is the finest leather that money
can buy. Well, maybe your money

be buying things like that, Sam.

Look, Sam, I think all this stuff's got
to go back.

Why? Because I said so. You also said
that someday when I make my own money, I

can spend it the way I want. And this is
someday, and this is... the way that I

want. Oh, okay, working girl. How long
do you think this money's gonna last?

There's plenty more where this came
from.

I got an interview with this big -time
agent, Fran Fiedler.

Oh, Fran Fiedler.

Sounds like some sleazy ten -percenter,
a person who lives off the sweat of

other people, a human leech.

Uh, actually, Tony, she's a very lovely
person.

And obviously a master of deception.

And very reputable. She handled six of
the top ten cover girls.

Only six?

See, Dad, you have nothing to worry
about.

Ciao.

Ciao?

Okay, okay, she is getting a little
carried away. A little carried away,

ya? A little carried away? Three
Christmases and three birthdays, I still

not afford those boots.

That's it.

What's it?

What's really bothering you?

Angela, you're not going to analyze
this, are you? You can't deny your

You are.

Look, Angela, I am going to darn.

When you get my life figured out, let me
know.

Tony, don't you see?

What's really bothering you is that with
all this money comes independence, and

you're afraid that Sam's not going to
need you anymore.

Angela, look, I can handle my daughter's
financial independence.

I just didn't think it would happen at
15, okay?

Okay.

Now what do I do?

Just what you've been doing.

Freaking out?

No. You've done a wonderful job raving
that little girl.

So you just trust that.

She may shake you up every once in a
while, but she'll do the right thing.

You hang in there.

And keep your equilibrium.

Oh, thank you, Angela. Can I get that
over the counter?

Ow!

Don't you see I'm eavesdropping?

Something juicy or is it Angela?

It's Sam. She's talking to that Fran
Fiedler agent that she went to see the

other day. Are they going to represent
her?

I don't know. That's why I'm
eavesdropping. Oh, move over.

I can't hear anything.

I didn't say it worked.

Didn't she hung up?

Hi.

Oh, hi, honey.

What's new?

I was just talking with Fran Fiedler.
Oh, Fran. Lovely woman, that Fran.

What did she have to say?

She said I had a lot of good qualities.

Well, I could have told you that.

You see, Tony, there was nothing worth
eavesdropping about.

So, why don't you tell me about the good
qualities?

She said I had striking features, good
bone structure, and well -placed eyes.

Where else would you put them?

She also said I had the kind of charisma
and presence that they look for.

Well, that's wonderful, sweetheart.

She also said that I had limited
potential.

I'm not tall enough, and I'm not special
enough.

And maybe she's right.

What? No way.

Are you kidding me? You're plenty
special enough and you're plenty tall

And you've got so much potential, it's
coming out of your ears.

Actually, Dad, that's another problem.

She said I could never do earring work
because my lobes are uneven.

That does it. That does it.

That Fran Fiedler wouldn't know a good
lobe if it hit her in the ear.

Dad, Fran is a professional. So what?
There are other professionals.

And if this is something you want, then
we go for it.

You can't let Fran Fiedler knock you out
of the batter's box.

Dad, this isn't baseball.

Everything's baseball.

The only way to win the game is to stay
in there.

I'm not sure I want to play anymore.

You don't?

Who needs the pressure?

I mean, I'm only 15.

That's true.

I don't need a career.

That's true.

for money, especially if I'm still
eligible for that five bucks a week

You got it.

Jonathan Bauer?

Tony, what are you doing here?

Oh, I bet I know.

Jonathan, someone here to see you.
