All language subtitles for Eight Is Enoughs04e27 Finally Grad Night

All right, now, you be sure and thank
Irving's mom for having you over. And

tell her that you had a nice time.

What if I have a crummy time?

Well, you thank her anyway.

But that's lying.

Oh, no, not really. It's being polite.

Think how bad Irving's mom would feel if
you told her, I'm not having a good

time. You don't want to hurt her
feelings now, do you?

No. I mean, isn't it better to make
people feel good by telling them that

having a good time, whether you are or
whether you aren't?

Well, but then how is anybody going to
know if you have a good time or not?

Well, people can usually tell those
things.

Well, if they can tell if you have a
good time, then they can tell if you

bad time.

So they're still going to feel bad.

It's getting late, Nicholas.

Dad, I don't understand.

Oh, no, of course. That's because you're
very young.

It doesn't make sense.

Well, we'll talk about it later.

Dad. We'll talk about it later,
Nicholas.

You just don't want to explain it to me.
Nicholas, later. That's not true.

It is true.

That's not true, Nicholas.

Dad, you don't have to lie. I can tell.

Okay, okay, you win. Whatever you say.

You mean I'm right?

Yes, yes. I'm just tired of explaining
this particular concept to you. Great.

Thanks for hurting my feelings.

Now I'm really going to have a crummy
time.

There's a magic in the early morning we
found.

When the sunrise smiles on everything
around.

It's a portrait of the happiness that we
feel and

always will.

To fill our lives with love.

Oh, we spend our days like bright and
shiny new dimes.

If we're ever puzzled by the changing
times.

There's a plate of homemade wishes on
the kitchen wheel.

And it is enough to fill our lives with
love.

Smile.

Yay! Now we'll take one of all of us on
the stairs.

Yeah, and besides, you already took
pictures on the stairs before the

graduation. All right, these will be
after -graduation pictures.

Why don't we all just clear out of here
like we promised and leave the house to

Tommy and his friends?

Happy graduation, Tommy.

Yeah, right.

Congratulations,

Tommy. Kiss. Give me a kiss.

Kiss. Me, me.

I'll get it. Now.

Hi, Nicholas. Are you ready? My mom's in
the car.

Yeah, I got all my stuff in my bag.

Did you remember to bring the grapes and
avocados?

Yeah, but we ran out of artichokes and
tomatoes.

Oh, that's okay. We got lots of those.

Hi, Irving.

Did you remember to pack your
toothbrush, Nicholas?

Yeah, Dad.

Well, don't forget to tell Mrs. Moore
thank you for having you over.

Okay.

See you later.

Avocados?

Guess what?

Look what we made.

What's this?

Oh, a little surprise.

Something for you guys to bench on
tonight?

Elizabeth, there are only four of them.

Right. No, it's true. Me, Tammy, Ernie,
and Jill.

Uh, huh.

You can believe what you want, but I've
been to enough big bashes this week to

last a long time. I want tonight to stay
quiet.

You're serious, aren't you?

You actually told Dad the truth?

Gosh, I hate to disappoint you.

Well, I guess you have to grow up
sometimes.

Right. Just too bad it had to be after
we made 57 deviled eggs.

Look, I really appreciate the trouble
you went to. Really.

Okay, what are sisters for?

Well, I better get dressed.

And first I'm going to hide this stuff
in case Dad decides to shoot a sequel.

Oh, Tommy.

We're out of film, Dad. Yes, I know. And
it's really getting too late to take

any more pictures because it's getting
close to seven. Pictures are not exactly

what I had on my mind.

Oh, you're worried about the house.
Well, don't worry. I'll take care of

everything and make sure that nothing...
Tommy, do you mind?

Sorry. I just want to wish you a happy
graduation.

Oh. And tell you that I was very proud
of you tonight.

Oh. And tell you that I trust you with
the house completely.

That you're O.

Oh, thanks, Dad.

Okay. Are you ready? Yes, ready.

Well, do you think you two can entertain
yourselves until 1 o 'clock?

You know, it may surprise you, son, but
I have been out after midnight before.

Hey,

Irvin, you need more artichokes.

I know.

We just ran out.

Well, I'll bake you with these extra
avocados over here.

Here.

Hello? Hi, sweetie. What a nice
surprise.

You're there now?

Yeah, of course I will. You go ahead and
collect the luggage and I'm on my way.

Okay, bye -bye.

Irving, I have to go pick your father up
at the airport.

I thought he wasn't coming home until
tomorrow. I know that, but his meeting's

been canceled, so let's go, boys, okay?

We can't go.

This project's due tomorrow.

Well, it's not going to take long.

But the glue will harden.

Oh, I don't know.

Please, Mom.

Well, can I trust the two of you alone?

Okay.

Okay, but keep the doors locked and no
roughhousing, all right?

All right.

And I won't be long.

Mush.

That's me there.

Oh, you were on the wrestling team?

Of course not. I just showed up for the
picture. He was also in the pictures of

the Spanish club, the marching band, the
young Republicans, the young Democrats,

and the Women's Service League. I almost
made the cheerleading picture, but

someone stole my pom -poms.

You remember this?

This is a 4 -H dance.

Don't remind me. I'll never forgive
Larry Nesbitt.

Larry told him it was a costume dance,
except it wasn't. He got a picture of

A hundred people in tuxes and gowns, and
Bradford shows up as an African pygmy

goat.

Oh,

hi, sir.

Yeah. Listen, when I called, you said
that there were plenty of free lanes.

I filled up.

Oh, well, how long away will it be then?

It depends.

On what?

When we get an open lane.

Well, surely you must have an idea how
long that will be. I mean, an hour?

An hour and a half?

Two hours?

Could be. Could be what?

An hour? An hour and a half? Two hours?
It depends.

On when there's an open lane, right?

Right.

Listen, can I ask you a question?

Did you ever work for the government?

How did you know that?

Hey, there's Mr. Leftcourt. You remember
his sophomore biology class? Remember?

I've been confused ever since.

I'll be right back. Save my place.

What's happening?

Yeah?

Sounds like a hot party.

Uh -uh. No, I think I'll pass.

Well, Tammy and Ernie are over here with
Jill and I.

Yeah, we want to keep things quiet.

Well, yeah, sure. But just you and Jeff
and your dates. No one else.

The last thing I want over here is a
house full of people.

Okay, you bet.

Bye -bye.

Well, maybe this wasn't such a good
idea.

Holy mackerel, I haven't seen lines like
this in Scots and got cable.

Before your time.

Of course, I was only a child myself.

Oh, of course.

Well, so much for the movie.

Where do you want to go now?

Home. Home? You can't go home. We still
have three hours left.

Well, I'll drive slowly.

Tom. Oh, come on. Should we get home a
little early? Tally will understand.

No, he won't. He'll think you're
checking up on him. All right, I give

do you want to do?

Jill, you're just signing his yearbook,
not answering an essay question.

Give her a break.

That's right. These things are supposed
to be special.

Yeah, and believe me, it's got to be
more special than what you wrote.

What's wrong with what I wrote?

To Tommy, best wishes, Ernest. I just
thought it ought to be a little formal.

looked like a copy of an autographed
Hemingway novel.

There, finished.

Oh, Jill, that's beautiful.

You think so?

Oh, I know so.

I meant every word of it. This was
really special.

What did she write?

Oh, Jill, this really is special.

What is it?

I wanted it to be different.

You're something else.

Will you guys let me see what she wrote?

To Tommy, best wishes, Jill.

Love you, too.

Don't worry about Nicholas and I. We're
fine.

All right.

Okay, bye.

My dad lost his suitcases. They won't be
back for a while.

Oh, you should have asked her where she
keeps the flowers.

It's got to be up here.

We looked everywhere else.

Well, maybe we should just forget about
making cakes and eat Scott's cake.

Wait, I think I see it.

Can you reach it?

No, it's a little bit too high.

Bring the phone book over here. I think
if I stand on top of it, I can reach.

Be

careful,

Irving.

Ah! Irving!

When our thoughts stray To golden days
at dear Old Central

High I'm telling you people, we have a
hit on our hand.

If that's William Morris, tell him we'll
sign.

Hello?

Yeah, Nicholas, is that you?

No, no, Dad's not here. What's wrong?

Hey, hey, slow down.

No, Mary went to a movie.

Will you slow down, Nicholas?

Look, I'm the only one here. Now just
calm down and tell me what's wrong.

What's the matter?

Shh.

Now that sounds pretty bad.

Is Irving conscious?

All right, tell him not to move.

Just sit tight, Nicholas. And don't
worry, I'll be right over.

Bye.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir, we will. Oh, watch out, my
arm.

Sorry. Uh -huh.

Nicholas, I look really dumb.

Well, Tommy said to keep you warm.

This was the only thing I could find.

I think I'm okay.

I think we better see what the doctor
says.

All right, thank you very much, Doctor.

Bye -bye.

Well, the doctor says we should get
Irving to the emergency room. Right.

Ernie, why don't you leave the Moores a
note, and we'll take him out to the car.

Watch out for his left arm.

All right.

Okay, Ernie, lift up just a little.

Okay.

Ernie, will you hurry it up? I'm coming.

Spawn. I tell you, I had a nightmare
very similar to this once, only it was

louder. Well, at least there's no
waiting.

Well, that's understandable.

Who wants to wait in line to get a
ruptured dick?

Tom, come on. It might be fun.

I can't dance like these people.

Well, you just listen to the music and
you just let yourself go, you know, like

them. Going into convulsions is not my
idea of having a good time. Come on,

one dance.

Okay, but I tell you, I'd feel a lot
better with a red leather boa.

Where are you going?

I just want to do a take -in, so... Then
all we have to take care of is the

insurance information.

It would be helpful if you could contact
them more before Irving is brought

down. I'll keep trying.

Thanks,

Jill. You're really being terrific about
this.

Making a few phone calls. It's called
being a friend, not terrific.

Yeah, well, here you go, friend, because
I got a feeling it's going to be a long

night.

Is Irving going to be okay?

Well, it's just a simple fracture, but
the casting stuff might take a while.

How long is a while?

Two, maybe three hours.

Oh, it's too bad Joanie had to go to
Stockton on that story. She really

to see this movie. Yeah, well, she still
might make it. If this line gets any

longer, it could reach her any second.

The liberation of Victoria is an
important film.

Now, as women, we should be glad there's
a big crowd.

Look, as a woman, I'm thrilled.

As a customer with bad arches, I wish
they'd all go home. The line should

moving pretty soon. Yeah, something to
look forward to, sitting in the front

with a neck sprain.

Nancy, I know what you're thinking.

And we are not going home. Look, we
promised Tommy we would not horn in on

graduation party. Elizabeth, how's my
favorite Bradford?

Fine, I guess. Have a graduation.

I still got another year.

Hey, uh, how about doing us a little
favor?

See you later, Elizabeth.

Who was that?

Kurt Harper. Remember, he used to play
in Tommy's band.

We're never going to get in.

Hey, let's forget the flick.

My favorite Bradford gave me a better
idea.

Come on, guys.

Oh, my glad that is over.

Well, there are some good things about
Stockton's annual livestock exhibit.

Oh, name one. It won't happen again till
next year. Oh, Jimmy.

I think I'm going to sleep till next
year.

I've only got two hours and three days.

Well, get all the sleep you need,
provided you're in editing at 8 a .m.

We've got a lot of film to look at.

I can't wait to see the Know Your Hog
seminar.

Oh, bye, Jimmy. Thanks. See you soon.

Sooner than you think.

Right.

Oh,

why did I ever think journalism would be
a glamorous profession?

Oh, what'd you forget, Jimmy?

Hi, Joanie. Oh, Jeff.

Sorry we're late. We had to stop for a
few things so we could contribute some

refreshment. Oh, what?

Where's the party? I just got here. What
party?

Oh, we just talked to Tommy a little
while ago, and he invited us over to

celebrate graduation.

Aw.

Hey, how's my favorite Bradford?

Who's your favorite Bradford?

And who are you?

Kurt Harper, beautiful. You must be
Tommy's sister.

Great gift.

And this must be Tommy's graduation
party. Come on, guys.

to jump a fence. I can't believe you,
David.

Oh, it was a dare. It was a six -foot
fence.

I'm a stretch.

So did I. I thought I married a mature
grown -up.

Now, the doctor said you should get
plenty of rest, so we're going to bed

No television and no talking. You're
treating me like a child.

There are reasons for that.

Good night, David.

Good night, Janet.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Joanie.

Does it have to be tonight?

Well, okay, but make it quick.

Joanie wants to sleep on our couch.

I don't know.

Something about Tommy having a party.

Sandy? Kurt?

Yeah, how do you like a little action
tonight?

Hot? Are you kidding?

From the looks of it, it's going to get
a lot hotter.

Hey, lighten up, Nicholas.

Irving will be playing shortstop again
in six weeks, the doctor promised.

It wasn't Irving I was thinking about.

Sorry we messed up your graduation
party, Tommy.

Don't worry about it, Squirt. You guys
didn't do it on purpose.

Look, you just should have been more
careful.

Well, I'll never let Irving try anything
like that again, even if I have to

break his other arm.

Well, I'm sure you'll talk him out of
it.

You know, you're getting to be more like
your big brother every day.

David? Me.

Really? You bet.

Hey, Nicholas.

Where are you going?

See if I can find Ernie and Tammy in the
coffee shop. If I'm getting to be so

much like you, maybe I can talk Ernie
into buying me a chocolate soda.

Talk about an exercise with utility.

Still no luck at Irving's, huh?

I even tried having his parents paged at
the airport, but it's like a zoo out

there. The governor and his favorite
singer are flying in from L .A. tonight.

Yeah. Well, it looks like we're stuck
here holding down the fort.

I'm really sorry you have to spend your
graduation this way.

Well, the situation has it complicated.

What makes you say that?

You.

It feels right to be with you tonight,
Tommy.

You were the best part of high school.

We were.

Boy, I'm sorry, you guys. I just
couldn't sit through another minute of

thing. It was a little slow.

A little? I kept reading the exercise
for excitement.

Well, where to now, ladies? We still
can't go home. Yeah, well, we could go

to David and Janet's. It's still early.
I think they're still up. What do you

think? Okay, that sounds good.

Okay, if I can find my keys, let's go.

Good night, David. Good night, Janet.

Oh, no.

David?

Joanie?

Joanie, what are you doing here?

I thought you had a big news assignment.

Well, they have a few hours to sleep
before I edit pig pictures.

Pig pictures?

Yeah. Joanie, why aren't you sleeping at
home?

At home? With Tommy's party going on at
the Grand Central Station there.

How come Dad never let us have bashes
like that?

I think we better go home.

Tommy might need to be saved from
himself.

Not to mention from Dad.

Another lie.

Pig pictures.

Well, at least we killed some time.

Yeah, it's killing me. My back will
never be the same. Can we go home now,

please? No, we can't. It's still too
early. You promised Tommy. Why don't we

just drive by, you know, to... To what?
To check up on him? I thought you

trusted him.

I do.

I really do.

But not 100%, right?

Well, I always allow 2 % margin for
error, you know. Well, I think you

with the odds.

Fine, then. What do we do now?

Well, we could go for a drive.

And waste all our gasoline?

Not if we do it my way.

How's your back?

I don't believe it.

Maybe it's not as bad as it looks.

It's a graduation party.

Don't count on it.

Here's to the class of 19!

You don't apologize.

The temperature starts, you better try
your...

Tommy must have gone crazy.

Yeah, so will Dad when he sees all this.

We better tell Tommy to have all this
all gone before Dad gets home. Can you

see, Tommy?

No.

Look. We better split up and try to find
him now. The first one who finds him,

bring him back here, okay?

Okay. But if I get lost, you guys send a
search party, okay? Good luck.

Tommy?

Tommy?

Are you in here?

Oh, go away, will you?

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm looking for Tommy
Bradford.

Good luck, honey. You saw half the girls
at the party, including me.

Why don't you just stop talking and kiss
me?

I think I'll go check the kitchen.

Look who dropped in.

My favorite Bradford.

Kurt, what are you doing here, and where
is Tommy?

You know, you're the fifth girl that's
asked me that tonight.

Or is it the sixth? That's terrific.
Listen, if you see him, would you do me

favor and tell him that his sisters are
looking for him?

Who?

Tommy, remember?

Tommy?

Oh, sure.

He's my favorite Bradford.

Have a good time.

You too.

Bye -bye.

I'm here for you.

Susie, this is Alvin Flecker.

Listen, I was wondering if you'd like to
come to a party.

Alvin Flecker.

Party time.

What about after your headache?

Let's catch upstairs.

I haven't been able to get that far.
Well, we've got to try.

Tommy's got to be somewhere in this
house. Everyone else in Sacramento is.

I'm going to go check upstairs, all
right? Nancy!

The phone's not out of order. It's just
busy.

Maybe Scott and Jeff are trying to find
us.

Yeah.

Let me think of it. I'll try and call
the Moors again.

Great way to spend graduation, huh?

Don't worry about it. The important
thing is that Irving's going to be all

right. Thanks to you.

Thanks to all of us.

My mother warned me about parking with
guys like you.

Yeah, well, that must have been before
they invented compact cars.

Ow! Aw, shucks.

Well,

I hope at least Tommy's having a good
time.

Maybe if I just move my legs just over
here a little bit. Yeah.

Ow, wait, Arby, please. You're crushing
my hand. I'm sorry.

Ow!

Knee. Tom, I didn't see it. Ow! Oh!

How was it? My foot's in a cramp. Could
you just move?

No, there's no room to move. Well, then
just open the door. I need to get... I

gotta stand up. I'm trying to. Oh, no.
Oh, oh, let me out of here. Oh.

Okay. Just open the door, please. All
right, wait a minute. I just gotta get

of here. Let me out, please.

She's right.

Let her out and put your hands up. Oh,
gosh.

Oh, this is a mistake.

Salt is always a mistake.

No, no, officer, I think I could
explain.

Tell him, tell him.

I didn't do anything.

Nancy,

there's no luck. I can't find Tommy
anywhere.

Well, I saw this guy who thought he
found Tommy on the screen porch, but all

found was too unmentionable to mention.
Oh, no.

Wasn't she with you? No, I lost her. How
do you find anybody in this madhouse?

I don't know.

No, thanks. This dance is taken.

I think it's up to us. To do what? To
clear out this party. Well, you got any

ideas on what to do with them?

Well, we're independent females.

We can handle those animals.

How?

By calling in reinforcements.

And I was just wondering... Alvin
Flecker.

Hello.

Glory. Hello?

Excuse me, Alvin Flecker, right?

Yes, right.

Uh, some girl wants to see you in the
living room.

You're kidding.

No.

Actually, two girls want to see him in
the living room. Yeah, uh...

I can hardly hear you.

I said I can hardly hear you. I didn't
say anything.

They what?

They have?

They are?

They did?

They who?

Well, David's in no condition to go, but
if it's that bad, you should call the

police. The police?

I'll call Merle, and then Joni and I
will be right over.

What's up?

It's Tommy.

He's acting your age again.

Well, where are we going now?

Home.

Can't go home.

It's only 12 .30.

Look, I know what time it is, but I
can't take anymore. Not since that

policeman. What happened to your sense
of humor?

I lost it between the disco and the
bowling alley.

to do? Are we just going to drive
around?

No, we can't. There's hardly any gas
left. There are no gas stations open.

better get you home while I can.

Okay, if you think that's best.

I just hope Tommy will understand.

Look, if Tommy is adult enough to have a
nice, quiet get -together with his

close friends on graduation night, well,
then he's adult enough to accept the

fact that we're a little early.

Excuse us. What do we do?

First, we better find the girl.

What? There's Nancy!

Nancy! Over here! Nancy!

Over here!

Excuse us. Nancy!

Isn't this unbelievable?

Says it's unbelievable.

Have you found Tommy?

No, not yet, but as soon as we can clear
out a few bodies, we're going to check

on the base.

Oh, yeah, the base.

If he's smart, he'll hide down there and
the whole thing blows over.

30 or 40 years from now.

Police department, open up. I never
thought the day would come when I'd be

to hear that.

Excuse us.

Excuse us. Excuse us.

Officer Dudley, Sacramento Police
Department. Your kids are going to have

quiet it down in here.

What? I said you're disturbing the
peace.

Not us.

Them. These girls live here. We called
you.

Well, they'll have to stop or we'll be
forced to evict all non -residents from

the premises.

Officer, do your duty. Please.

All right, Callow. Follow me.

Okay, break it up. Come on.

Let's go. Let's go. Oh, I hope this
works. It's better. You know what Dad

say if he saw this?

What the devil is going on here?

Elizabeth. Don't try to protect him.
But, Dad, it's true. We can't find

In case you haven't noticed, it's pretty
confusing around here.

Believe me, I've noticed. And I'll find
Tommy. The rest of you can start

reclaiming this house from the jungle.

Tommy!

Well, you get around, don't you? Oh,
look, mister.

When I told you to leave Lovers Lane, I
didn't mean that you should crash a high

school party.

Officer, I live here.

You're responsible for this?

No, it's my son's fault, and I'll put a
stop to it. Now, you can just stand here

and watch if you want, or you can help
me.

All right, sorry,

folks, the party's over.

If you want to continue dancing, I
recommend Boogie Land.

Recommend it now.

Okay.

Thanks, Pop. Go on in.

All right.

That's why you should file a formal
complaint with the two cops in the

room. I understand you're investigating
a report on some party crashers.

Want a sandwich?

I mean it, baby. How else can you prove
that you love me?

Oh, no, not again.

She can prove it by taking you home
before you get into any more trouble.

Oh, what a drag.

Oh, you will? Ursula, you will come?

Oh, I love you. Oh, listen, it's 1436
Oak Street. That's right.

Yes, that's right. That's where Tommy
is. Yes.

Oh, thank you.

Golly, I just can't wait.

No, you don't need to bring anything.

I'm all set.

Wrong number.

But that's the first right number I've
had all night. Yes. Oh, come on, give me

a break. But what about Ursula? Two to
one. Just a minute. No.

Well, they're not next door.

And I cannot reach the Bradfords. I
think their line is out of order. That's

the only thing that's going to be out of
order once I get my hands on Irving.

You know, they should have left word or
something if they were going over to

Nicholas's house. What if something
happened to those boys? I never, never

should have left them stay by
themselves.

Come on, don't start thinking the worst.

I'm sure there's a very harmless
explanation for the whole thing, all

as a matter of fact, I think I just
found it. They did leave a note after

Jack, what does it say?

The only two words I can make out are
Irving and accident.

Tell me, Bradford, she knows how to how.
What a party. Yeah.

Hey, where's your wheels, man? Let's get
out of here.

Well, sounds like you're earning quite a
reputation.

Please, officer, you don't understand. I
am Tom Bradford, Sr.

Tommy Bradford, Jr.

is my son. Can you show me this alleged
son?

No, not at the moment.

But when I find him, he's got a wish
that he were alleged.

Hold it, mister. Can you prove that you
live here? Oh, come on. You've got to be

kidding. Look, put yourself in my shoes.

I find you in two suspicious
circumstances in less than an hour. Now,

were me, wouldn't you check you out?

Be my guest.

And I really am sorry that you were so
worried. It wasn't your fault, Tommy.

just glad you helped Irving.

I can't thank you enough for everything
you did.

Don't mention it.

Except maybe to my parents. Could you
call them and tell them that Nicholas

I will be home right away? Oh, I'd love
to.

I just hope I don't have any more
trouble getting through to your house.

Bradford Thomas W.

I see.

Really? The Sacramento Register?

He's that Bradford?

Yeah, I read him religiously.

It seems to me that a little
misunderstanding wouldn't bother him

famous sense of humor.

He's trying.

Yes, sir. Well,

I think that's the last of the Red Hot
graduates.

Well, in that case, we'll be leaving.
I'm sorry, Mr. Bratton. That's all

Thanks for all your help.

I'll go get the broom, and then you
girls can help me clean up this house.

Okay. Mary, where have you been for the
past hour and a half?

Oh, uh, upstairs.

Locked in a closet.

Who locked you in a closet?

I did.

Well, it was the only way to get your
privacy.

Besides, every time I tried going
downstairs, they'd carry me back up.

Do you realize?

We never found Tommy, Ernie, or Jill.

Nancy, you know how grad nights are.
There are a lot of parties to go to.

Are you saying that Tommy left his party
for somebody else's? Oh, great. That'll

really get to Dad.

As a matter of fact, it really gets to
me.

Yeah. Tommy creates a monster and leaves
it for us to kill.

Maybe it's better for him if we never
find him.

Hey, what's going on?

What, did you guys have a party?

That isn't funny, Tommy. Do you realize
what you put us through? There is

absolutely no excuse for your behavior
tonight, Tommy. You're not a big shot

graduate. You're nothing but an
irresponsible child.

Hold it. I don't even know what you're
talking about. You're not making any

sense. I'm afraid they are, Tommy. You
lied to us. I should have known better

than to leave you alone in this house.
And I'll never trust you again.

I'll make it easy on you. You won't ever
have to.

Tommy, come back here.

What's going on?

Where did you come from?

It's a long story.

Tell them about Irving, Nicola.

Well... We kind of ran out of honor
jokes. Nicholas, I think you could skip

part.

Tommy.

Don't try and stop me. No, no, I just
wanted to tell you that I was wrong. And

so were your sisters.

We found out about Irving, and I hope
that you'll forgive me.

It's not that easy.

I mean, it's like you wanted to believe
the worst.

I just believed what I saw. It made me
angry and very wrong. I'm sorry.

All's I tried to do all night was what I
thought you'd want me to do. I know

that now.

Then why didn't you trust me?

I don't know. Maybe... Maybe it was
because I was afraid to admit that you

aren't a boy anymore.

Tonight you were more of a man than your
father.

You really mean that?

Sure I do.

You are mature and responsible and
totally adult.

Thanks.

Apology accepted?

He'll accept mine.

Sure.

Now I think we should go downstairs.

What for?

I hear the Bradfords are having a party.

Nicholas, what are you doing out of bed?

Sounded like a party.

Well, it is a party, Nicholas. Now, may
I have everybody's attention, please?

And besides, I forgot to tell Tommy
something.

Thanks for being there with me and
Irving.

Oh, I'm glad you remembered to say that,
Nicholas. Now, as I was saying... Dad,

can you say it, please, Dad?

As I was saying, they'll say it.

Tommy, we're sorry for acting like
childish little sisters.

Yeah, we think you're pretty wonderful.

Yeah, and we're sorry you missed out on
your graduation celebration.

Oh, uh, we're giving you this one. Yeah,
we're all turning over the house to you

next weekend for your party you
originally planned.

Is that really true, Dad?

Completely. And we hope that you and
your friends have a very happy time.

Thanks, everybody.

And now a toast to our honored graduate.

Hooray!

Hooray!

And to the graduating class of 1980.

My favorite favorites.

Zen.

That's 11 games in a row.

Congratulations. I surrender.

We should have made plans. Do you
remember what happened the last time we

Tommy the house?

Well, I thought you were making plans
all week.

I was planning to.

Well, give me the flashlight, and I'll
check the entertainment section as well.

Hmm.

Let's see. We could see... Old Mark
Swinson's cries and screaming.

Sounds noisy.

Well... La Maison Blanche takes all
evening to have dinner, I've heard. Oh,

place is so exclusive. It's bound to be
mobbed.

It only seats 20.

So it'll be claustrophobic.

Not to mention expensive.

We could go see the demolition derby.

I've seen it.

When? When have you seen the demolition
derby?

On grad night. In our living room.

Tom, I don't think you're going to find
the perfect diversion.

Well, then what?

We could met.

We did that.

Well, we'll do it again until you get it
right.

Okay.
