Hi, everybody.

What do you think of this outfit?

Oh, lovely.

But why are you wearing your necklace
around your waist?

I think you look very nice, honey.
Another big date with Gary?

Yeah, I'm really excited. We've been
dating for three months now, and tonight

think he's going to finally do it. Do
what?

Give me his socks.

His socks?

Well, yeah.

They're a symbol of our mutual love and
commitment.

See, I'll sleep with him on so he can
keep me warm at night.

Honey, sometimes I worry about you.

I wouldn't worry until he gives her his
boxer shorts.

I thought the news was on.

We're watching Brain Busters.

Not another insipid game show.

But this one's unique. They put kids and
adults on the same team.

Yeah, and I know most of the answers.

That would make it unique.

Here comes the lightning round. All
right, guys, I'm going to whip you now.

Good luck to our contestants.

First question, who won the 1984 World
Series? Tigers.

Who wrote The Last of the Mohicans?

James Fenimore Cooper.

What was the name of the dog in The Thin
Man?

What is the scientific name for aspirin?
White pills.

Acetosalicylic acid.

That was my next guess.

Boy, Dad, if you and I went on this
show, we could really clean up.

Uh, I don't know. This week's grand
champions and brain busters will receive

prize package including a cordless
telephone, a laptop computer, a CD

digital keyboard, and a Lamborghini.

On the other hand... I'm way ahead of
you, Dad. I applied last week.

All right!

Boy, wouldn't it be great?

Wesley T. Owens making his TV debut on
Brain Busters.

Funny. I always thought it would be on
America's Most Wanted.

No one's there, but sometimes things get
turned around and no one's there.

All hands look out below.

There's a change in the status quo.

Gonna need all the help that we can get.

According to our new arrival, life is
more than mere survival.

We just might live the good life yet.

Would you like some eggs?

Who cares?

Life stinks and then you die.

I take it Gary did not give you his
socks.

No, he gave me the boot.

I'm sorry.

What happened?

Gary broke up with me. He said I was
smothering him. Can you believe it?

ate lunch with him every day and called
him twice every single night.

The boys are crazy. I hate them.

Heather, there are plenty of other fish
in the sea.

Thank you, Mrs. Paul.

Now, look, I remember when Ricky Baldwin
broke up with me. I thought it was the

end of the world, too.

But then I met your father.

I thought you were trying to cheer her
up.

Hey, big guy. Hello, George.

Joke, joke, joke.

A subpoena?

I don't believe it. They want us to try
out for Brain Busters this Friday.

You're kidding.

This is radical. We're going to be a
team.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

Oh, come now, Heather.

There is no use wallowing in self -pity.

Why not?

Because you're wallowing in my rocky
road.

Bye, guys.

Oh, Miss Belvedere, can you iron this
for me? I've got a hot date tonight with

Myra Banks.

I know what you're up to.

You're going to pretend to be real sweet
and caring, but you're just going to

toy with her affection until you fling
her aside like a rag doll, just like all

men, you heartless, gut -bucket!

How did she know?

Hi, honey.

What are you reading?

The Wretched... vomit of existence.

Heather, you do have to get on with your
life.

Life is a tale told by an idiot.

Speaking of which, George called.

He'll be late for dinner.

Look, Heather, just sitting around here
all day moping isn't going to do you any

good. Hey, what do you say we spend the
afternoon at the mall?

I don't want to go to the mall.

I was startled by something.

Heather, get up.

Now, we are going to the mall. I am
going to buy you something frivolous and

expensive, and you are going to like it.

Why don't you just make me walk over hot
coals? Move!

Off to your tryout?

Yep.

George, don't you think you should wash
your hands before you leave?

What? Your hands are all blue.

It's a skin condition.

1492, 1776, 1941.

Oh, dear, we're breaking out in
historical dates.

I'm trying to cover all the bases.

George, you cannot put all the trivia of
the world on your body.

Can I borrow yours?

It's okay to be a little nervous.

I'm fine, Dad.

I was talking to myself.

So, I see we have our would -be brain
busters already in place.

You know who I am.

Who?

Tony Hopper, Dad, the host.

Oh, right.

I didn't recognize you in this light.

No problemo.

We asked you here to test how you
respond to the game situation.

Now, don't lean into your mic.

Speak up, project, and, hey, be
yourselves, huh?

Got it, Tony.

Yeah. Well, I'd first like to greet the
Lees from Virginia.

Hi, Tony. I am Trava, and this is my
son, Travo.

I am Tarara, and this is my son,
Boomdie.

I do the jokes, huh?

I'm Wesley, and this is my dad, George.

Okay. Well, remember the rules. Hit the
buzzer when you think you know the

answer. We'll give you 50 points if
you're right, but we'll penalize you if

you're wrong.

My first question.

It's okay to be aggressive, but let's
wait for the category.

Cat bed?

Sure thing.

Babe.

Who was the president of the United
States?

George?

Rutherford B.

Hayes. No.

Who was the president of the United
States when we entered World War I?

Thomas Woodrow Wilson?

Wrong. That's correct.

Thomas? That was his name, Dad.

Moving on.

Name the famous dog... Benji.

Wrong again.

Name the famous dog who almost cost
Richard Nixon an election.

Wesley. Checkers. That's correct.

Hey, way to go, sport. What a kid. Is he
a chip off the old block or what?

Can we proceed?

Sure.

Okay, now, who won the Triple Crown?

George.

Secretariat.

Uh, no, Seattle Sleuth. No, affirmed.

Are you sure?

Yeah, yes.

Who won the Triple Crown in baseball in
1967?

Yes, Trois.

That is correct.

That was a trick question.

Hi, we're back.

Hi. We went to this really trendy place
called Safari Junction. I got these

earrings made out of chicken beaks.

Lovely.

When you're tired of them, I'll be able
to use them for soup stock.

Heather, will you please take this stuff
upstairs?

I've got to do some research for this
legal seminar tomorrow.

A seminar tomorrow?

or the symphony or the gap.

Either I do have a job.

That's okay.

I understand.

I'll be happy sitting at home alone
writing poetry that doesn't rhyme.

Well, look, um, maybe I can squeeze in
an hour or two. Okay.

Well, are we brain busters yet?

The bust part is right.

But Dad tried to beat up the host.

Look, I'm sorry I let you down, pal.
It's just, well, I hated his guts.

That's okay, Dad.

What did I want with this stupid
Lamborghini anyway?

Don't be distraught, George.

It was only a silly game show.

A mindless parade of absolutely useless
information.

You're right.

with me, Mr. Belvedere?

Wesley, I thought you'd never ask.

Hey!

You should be studying the almanac.

I'm taking a break. I've been at it all
day.

Wesley, if you are going to be my
partner on Brain Busters, you must be

prepared.

I want you to memorize the state
capitals.

I know the state capitals. In Hebrew?

I brought these from the library like
you asked.

Thank you, Kevin.

Will and Ariel Durant's Story of
Civilization.

I have the Encyclopedia Britannica in
the trunk.

Are you trying to kill me?

A tempting thought, but I think we
should wait until after the game show.

Where are you going?

At least there I can give my mind a
rest.

He'll be back.

It's Saturday.

There was a whole chocolate mousse cake
in here this morning. Who ate it? Jeff.

The brain that ate Pittsburgh?

I don't think so. I may have to appear
in court this afternoon.

Oh, but there's going to be this big
styling demo at Snyder's Beauty Salon.

Heather, we have been to the mall every
afternoon for a week.

What's another day?

Oh, great. See ya.

You two have been spending a lot of time
together lately.

Yeah.

You've been spending more than that.

Promise to ease up as soon as she starts
dating again.

Or we go broke.

What three -dimensional figure has
twelve sides?

A dodecahedron.

Where was the Ouija board invented?

Baltimore.

How high is a volleyball net?

Seven feet eleven and five -eighths
inches. Mr. Belvedere, this is boring.

Perhaps we should have a little fun.

Let's recite the periodic table of
elements.

Oh, can we?

I always find the best way to memorize a
complex list is to set it to music.

Hydrogen and helium, lithium, beryllium,
boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen,

fluoride.

Excuse me, I'm going to move in with the
Huffnagels.

Oh, Wes, am I glad to see you.

You are?

Not really.

Honey,

I just mean that it's a relief to see
anyone other than Heather. Yeah, she has

an effect on me, too.

I don't know. All I wanted to do was
help her out with her boy problems. Now

I've created a monster.

At least you're not stuck with
Britannica fats.

Last night I was in the bathroom. He
slipped me a copy of Who's Who in

under the door with a note saying he'd
be giving me a quiz when I came out.

Well, honey, sooner or later they will
return to their normal selves. And until

then, we're just going to have to try to
be patient and understanding.

Yeah, I guess so.

Mom?

Wendland!

In the meantime, head for the hills.

I just took the trash out again.

It's supposed to be Wes's job.

Wesley's otherwise engaged.

Big guy, aren't you driving him a little
hard?

I mean, a brain can only absorb so much
information in a, well, short circuit.

You ought to know.

All I'm saying is Wes is just a kid.

A kid with a mission.

Only once in his life can he strive to
become Grand Champion Brain Buster.

His moment has arrived, and so has mine.

Together, we shall ride the road to fame
and glory!

You ate that moose cake, didn't you?

Thank you, thank you. Welcome back to
Brain Busters. We have a new pair of

challengers with us today.

Wesley Owens, tell us about yourself.

I'm 13 years old and I'm in the 8th
grade at Beaver Falls Junior High.

great. That's just great. Let's hear it
for Wes.

Wes's partner is Lynn Belvedere. Tell us
about yourself, Lynn.

Well, Tony.

I was valet to Winston Churchill, a
confidant to Gandhi.

And a housekeeper to Her Majesty Queen
Elizabeth II.

Couldn't hold a job, huh, pal?

Oh, enough chit -chat.

Let's bust some brains.

Thank you, brain.

Who wrote the book?

Little Women.

Yeah, Lynn.

Louisa May Olcott. Correct for 50
points. Who was our first vice

Lynn. John Adams.

Correct for another 50 points.

What is the fastest land mammal?

Wesley. The cheetah.

Lynn. The Bolivetian dances by Borodin.
Right again. That's six in a row.

In the comic strip Thimble Theater, who
was the ruler of Nazalia?

Yes, Lynn.

King Blozo.

Amazing. Even our computer didn't know
that one.

Scorp, Belvedere, and what's his name? 2
,000. The Lees have 300.

We'll be right back after these
important messages.

Why have you been sitting me under the
table?

Because you're hogging every answer.

I know my stuff, don't I? Sure you do.
Elephants never forget.

Don't be such a twit.

We're here to win, aren't we?

You're here to win. You don't even need
me. Of course I need you.

They wouldn't let me in the show without
you.

Hope I win a jet ski.

I hope you drown ski.

Boys, boys, settle down. We have to set
up for our new lightning round.

Hey, hey, hey. Welcome back to Brain
Busters and our all -new super goopy

lightning round. Our adults will now
move to their penalty chairs.

Super goopy?

And why are they strapping Mr. Belvedere
down?

Nobody told me about this.

Let me clear that for you, Lynn.

You see, in this round, only the junior
partner gets to answer. But if he's

wrong, Mom, Dad, or Grumpy here has to
face the super goopy consequences.

What?

Ready, Trouble?

Uh -huh.

Ready, Wes?

Let me get this straight.

If I give a wrong answer, something
bad's going to happen to Mr. Belvedere?

You got it.

I'm ready.

Let's begin.

Thanks again, brain.

Name the young French maid who was
divinely inspired to fight the British.

Yes, Wes.

Tina Turner.

No, it was Joan of Arc.

Looks like you laid an egg, Wes.

Try again.

What was the name of the group whose
members were John, Paul, George, and

Yes, Beth?

The Supreme Court.

No, we were thinking of the Beatles.

Say, Lynn, that egg makes a pretty
scanty breakfast.

What do you say we add some?

What was the nationality of the 17th
century painter Rembrandt?

Yes, what?

Now, I think he was Dutch.

Or else he came from Cleveland.

Yeah, yeah, Cleveland.

No, he was Dutch.

You remember the Dutch, don't you?
Famous for their cheese, their tulips,

chocolate.

you are doing this on purpose.

Next question.

To three figures, what is the value of
pi?

Yes, Wesley.

The value of pi is $1 .79.

No, pi equals 3 .14.

But speaking of pi...

a whipped cream.

Hi,

Mom. Have you seen Heather?

Where?

Well, when you see her, will you tell
her that Bobby called and everything's

for tonight?

Bobby? Who's Bobby?

Oh, I don't know. Some guy she's been
dating.

Didn't she tell you?

Heather!

Hi, Mom, what's up?

Have you been dating somebody behind my
back?

You mean like a boy?

No, a wombat. Yes, of course a boy!

Well, yeah, sort of.

But what about Gary?

What about your depression? What about
my credit card bill?

about the clothes?

And why did we spend so much time
shopping?

It's just it gave me a chance to be with
you.

You know, just the two of us.

I mean, I'm going to be going to college
soon and we may not have time like this

again. And I guess I just didn't want to
see it end.

Come here, you.

I will always be your mom.

Whenever you need me.

I'm glad.

And I got to admit, I do look pretty hot
in this jumpsuit. Yeah, I look pretty

good in mine, too.

Hey, I have an idea.

How about if I buy you something?

Okay. What do you have in mind?

Despite my humiliation, the events on
Brain Busters turned out all right.

I displayed my breadth of knowledge to
the world.

However, I was rather sorry to lose that
jet ski.

Mr. Belvedere?

Yes, Wesley?

Are you still mad at me?

Certainly not.

Can I come in?

By all means.
