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

An open road and a road that's hidden. A brand new life of down for being.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

And found a friend.

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're not awake to a brand new life. A brand new life. A

new life. And

now,

the secret of Miss Ellie's famous floral on chili.

Oh, two shakes of cayenne pepper.

And three more for us men.

Oh, my eyes are burning.

Good, good. When your scalp starts to peel, it's ready.

Oh, look at the two of you cooking together, getting ready for the big

tomorrow. Mom, is that you?

Ah, yeah, Angela. We've got a big afternoon planned. Big. Philly, Vinnie,

Tony, and Johnny.

Who's Johnny?

You, you banana.

Angela, we got a lot of work cut out for us here.

Telling you, Mona, Tim Collier doesn't even know I'm alive.

That's because you're trying too hard. If you want a man to pay attention to

you, there's only one way.

Ignore him.

That's it?

Well, there are other ways, but you're only 16.

Angela. I'm sorry, it just popped out.

Go. Before there are any more explosions from Angela's id.

Okay, well, I'll be home by midnight. 11. 11 .30. 11. 11 .15. 11. 11. But that

is my final offer.

You drive a hard bargain.

Be careful. Bye -bye. Have fun. Thanks.

Stop!

Look at that look.

Molly, Sarah, and Emmy, just stand in there, pigging out on chips, hoping some

guys will ask them to dance.

I hope it's better.

Ooh,

look, guys.

Beer.

Have one.

Oh, no thanks. I don't like the taste of this stuff.

Just hold it. You'll look cool.

Wow, hello.

Come on, let's go get noticed. No, no, no, wait. The only way to get noticed is

just to ignore them. Oh, please.

It works for Mona.

Sounds good.

Don't look.

Just ask how she is.

Frankly, I was surprised at the Soviet pull -out from Afghanistan.

I didn't think they'd get out by the deadline.

Do you believe they have dinner rolls?

Hi. Oh, hi.

Hi, I'm Nancy.

I'm Philip.

Who's your friend?

Oh, that's Samantha.

Sam? Meet Phillip. Bye. Not you.

You're kidding.

You want to dance with me?

Sure.

Lose the roll.

Oh, yeah.

Boy, she's real choosy. Oh, you're jealous.

No, I just like to know a guy can at least carry on a conversation before I

start things off. Hey.

Hey, you're a self -cowboy. Let's dance.

Samantha McPelly, sophomore, Fairfield High School, right?

Oh.

Hi. Hi.

Yeah, how'd you know all that?

I just, I asked everybody in here who was the prettiest girl in the room.

Oh, smooth one, Tim.

How did you know my name was Tim?

Uh, you look like a Tim.

Smooth one, Sam.

I don't blame you for getting rid of that. That's a light beer, right?

Yeah, I don't like the taste.

Oh, me neither.

Really? Try one of these.

Oh.

This is a real beer.

Mmm, that's good, huh?

Uh -huh.

Hey, guys.

Oh, hi, guys.

This is Tim. Hey, Tim. What's up, Tim? Hey, three guys, three girls.

happy. Hey, a toast.

To Friday night. Friday night.

88 bottles of beer on the wall.

88 bottles of beer.

If one of those bottles should happen to fall, then there'd be a lot less

bottles of beer on the wall.

Are you sure you're okay?

I'm fine. I don't think you're fine.

I am fine. I'm sitting right down until you believe me. Okay, you're fine.

Thank you.

My head is spinning.

Oh, no.

I can't go in there and face my father like this. He won't know.

He already knows. How?

One of the parents called.

One of the kids from the party stopped by and told him.

He had me followed.

He's been having me followed for years.

Don't worry, okay? Just go in there and act natural.

How do I look?

Oh, better than you. smell.

Here, suck on this, okay? It's a breath mint.

It's a candy mint.

It's a breath mint. It's a candy mint.

It's two mints in one. Here.

Hi, Dad.

Hi, Miss Sally.

Hi, girls.

How was the party?

Great.

Great.

Hold it.

Omelette or French toast tomorrow?

Ooh, take the omelette.

11 good kid

Honey, what's wrong?

I think I'm car sick.

You walk to the party.

I think I'm walk sick.

I don't think so. Have you been drinking?

Just a couple of diet beers.

Oh, Sam.

Angela, I'm fine, really. Just don't tell my dad, okay?

Honey, this is not something that I can keep from him.

Samantha? I need a little bit more chili pepper.

You got it.

That should just about do it. See ya.

As soon as it's ready, I will personally dish you up a bowl.

Men. Untending to my every need.

That's the way God meant it to be.

Progress report. Sam is up and getting dressed.

Ah, amen.

The Princess arises at two o 'clock.

Tony, about last night.

Please, Angela, do me a favor. Don't tell me I was too hard on her.

I wasn't going to. I was going to tell you I'm with you all the way.

Really?

Well, good, because I meant it when I said she was irresponsible and stupid.

was very powerful.

Well, thank you. You're welcome.

And I think Sam would have thought so, too, if she were conscious.

Well, she's conscious now, and believe you me, she's going to get an earful.

Oh, don't be too hard on her.

I remember the first time Angela got drunk.

She got this bottle of whiskey, and she went behind the shed with Jeb.

No, that was an episode of The Waltons.

No, no, it wasn't Angela. It was John Boy.

Mother? Don't worry, Angela. John Boy never drank again.

Oh, must be the guys. I'll get it.

Tony, I think I understand what Mother's trying to say.

Put me in a home?

No. No, I think she's saying that we shouldn't overreact. See, John Boy got

drunk. He had a hangover. He learned a lesson. And so will Sam.

Oh, yeah? Well, Sam girl's gonna get a whoopin' from Pa.

Yo, guys! Yo, Mona!

Yo, guys!

Yo, Tony!

Yo, guys!

Hello, Angela.

Nice to see you. All right, guys.

Hang tight.

Ain't that because I gotta go check on the chili.

I just want you to know this batch was made by none other than Johnny.

Well, then, Johnny, it better be good.

All right, I got a ten spot that says Hartnett's kitchen canvas by the eighth

round. Oh, yeah?

I got 20. He says he won't make it to the fifth.

Oh, come on, Maul. We're not taking money from a lady.

Oh, yeah.

If you talk the talk, you gotta walk the walk.

Here's 20.

And there's plenty more where that came from.

I'm in.

You wish.

Hey,

Sam! Sammy!

Oh, hi, guys.

Hey, looking grown up there, Sammy. Not too grown up for Nicky Patron!

Hi, Dad.

Angela, would you... Right. Okay.

How are you feeling?

Awful. I just got the nugget patrol.

Oh, good.

Dad, look, I'm sorry. Sam, Sam, Sam, Sam. That's just not going to cut it,

That's just not going to cut it. I'm mad, Sam. I'm real mad.

You're grounded for a month.

I mean, what did you think you were doing? Dad, I...

Drink milk. It does your body good.

You don't understand.

I don't have to understand, Sam.

There's no discussion here.

You do... Sam, you do not need booze to have a good time.

Hey, Tom, want a beer? Yeah.

And here's the final word on this, young lady.

You... Oh, I get it. I get it. I see what you're thinking.

I mean, I can drink and you can't, right? Well, there's a reason for that,

And the reason is I happen to be a responsible adult.

And those people in there, they happen to be responsible adults.

Would you come on?

Excuse me.

Now, the final word on this is, as I was saying...

As responsible adults, we know you don't need beer to have a good time.

Sure, Dad.

Okay, okay.

We won't drink.

Hey, guys.

Let's try something different this afternoon, okay?

All right, let's watch the fight. Are you ready for this?

Without beer.

Well, that's a wonderful idea.

Come on, Mother.

Help me get the... Tell us some nice pink lemonade.

Oh, yes.

The fellas will like that a lot.

Well, what do you say, guys?

Well, guys, say something.

Who wants a brewski? I do. No, you don't. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Don't.

Gee whiz. Go with me on this, Sam. I'm trying to make a point.

Sam got smashed last night.

You don't want us to drink. We won't drink. Hey, guys, I appreciate it.

I do. Thank you. Nice pink lemonade for the fight fan. One for the big guy.

Thanks, Mom. And one for Vinnie.

Here we go.

Mmm, lemonade. A mighty fine drink.

Mmm, very squintuous rind.

Yeah, yeah.

And the vitamins are an added bonus to the fruit juicy goodness.

Who wants more?

Oh, I do.

I do.

Angela? Yeah?

Try chocolate milk.

Do you want a straw?

Oh, yeah.

A bendy one.

Oh, that must be Larry. We're going to watch the fight from my place.

Hey, why do you need Larry? You got three studs right here.

Need I say more?

Ready, Mona? You bet.

All right, thugs, all right. The fight is going to start. Here we go. And we'll

start round one right after this.

You just spent a month carving a fifth face on Mount Rushmore, and

you've worked up a man -sized thirst for a beer, a big, luscious man.

A windy city beer.

Windy city beer. The beer you need when you really need a beer.

I really need a beer.

Oh, guys, come on. What about Sam? I'm trying to set an example here.

Well, you're a little late. You know, she's grown up with us. What we're doing

here is no big secret. I mean, that's right. Besides, she's upstairs anyway,

we came to party. Yeah, right.

All right, fight's started. Let's go.

Yeah, bada -boom, bada -boom. All right, Jack, Jack, Jack. Come on, come on.

Pick the gloves up. Oh, oh, he's down.

Get up. Come on.

He's up. All right.

Don't get up.

I'll get it.

Hi, guys. How are you feeling?

Don't ask.

Dad, we're going to be up... Are you having a

good time?

Well, Samantha, I didn't even realize I had... It really was an accident.

It was just like I had it in my hand. I... I blew it.

Brother. Le frere.

Mother. La mère.

Father. Le jerk.

Le worm. Le hypocrite.

No, I can't study. I can't. I'm so mad and my head is really pounding.

Well, I know just what you need.

Whoa, where'd you get that?

My folks' liquor cabinet.

They were saving it for a romantic evening together.

But it's pretty much been gathering dust since the divorce.

Please, I can't even look at it. I'm getting sick.

Hey, I hear it's the best cure for a hangover.

You know, the hair of the dog that bit you.

But her dad sits downstairs.

Yeah.

Watching a fight and chugging beer.

Shall I pour?

Allow me.

Okay, I have no... Here, here, give it to me.

Okay.

It's a movie.

You guys stand back. It's going to blow.

Sam? Oh, no.

Hide it. Hide it. Where?

Closet.

Give it to me.

Just a sec.

Jack.

You okay?

Oh, yeah. Just hitting the lever.

Oui, oui.

Well, I came to talk to you about everything.

Father, daughter stuff.

We'll leave you two alone. Hold it.

I want you two girls to hear this, too. Sit down.

Look, Sam, you know, when you came home drunk, I didn't want to hear any

excuses, and I still don't.

But I've been doing some thinking, and maybe I understand a little better why

you did what you did.

Really? Yeah, I think it's kind of unfair of me giving you lectures about

going along with your friends, and I can't even do it myself.

cool, Mr. Maselli. I'm not done yet.

That's cool, too.

I mean, it's not a perfect world, Sam. If it were, I wouldn't be drinking and

telling you not to.

But, Sam, the bottom line is, I don't want you drinking. It's illegal and it's

dangerous, sweetheart.

Got it, Dad.

Well, I know it's easy for you to say that now in front of your dad, but next

party you're at, you're going to be under a lot of pressure from your

But this peer pressure stuff is baloney for both of us. Because in the end, the

choice is always yours.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

And just promise me one more thing so that I can sleep at night.

If you do decide to be a dope and drink, and if you do, I'll kill you, don't

drive.

I promise that.

Okay. All right.

Promise me just one more thing.

If you're with any other dopes and they decide to drink, and if they do, I'll

kill them too, you won't get into their cars either.

Okay. I promise.

Same goes for you.

It's a deal, honey.

All right.

I can't believe your dad said it's okay to drink.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

What I'm trying to say is... I want Sam to be responsible, and I want her to use

her own judgment.

And I want her to know that... I

want her to know that I trust her.

Oh, boy, that was so...

So what, you're never going to drink again?

Then what about Greg's party?

I'll deal with that when the time comes, but right now I don't want any, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Guys liked my chili.

The fight ended after just two rounds. They never got a chance to taste it.

Yeah. Just leaves more for me.

I

don't

know. Needs a little bit more red pepper.
