Mrs. Winslow? Is my bra strap showing?

Well, it isn't showing.

Come on in.

Is Laura ready for the party?

Yeah. Hold on a second.

Laura!

Maxie's here!

Coming!

Oh, girl!

That's a great dress. Can I borrow it sometime?

Sure. After I'm dead.

Bye, Mrs. Winslow.

Oh, Mom.

Huh? Can I stay out a little past curfew tonight?

Well, let me think.

No.

Mom. Laura, why must we go through this every time you get ready to go out?

But, Mom, the party really doesn't get started until 11.

But your curfew's at 12.

Not a minute later. So party hardy for an hour.

Besides, bet your Maxine doesn't stay out past her curfew.

I don't have a curfew.

I don't care what Maxine does.

She's not my daughter. You are. And you're not staying out past curfew. End

story.

I love that young lady.

Wow. She is good.

It's a rare condition, this day and age, to read any good news on the newspaper

page. And love and tradition of the grand design, some people say it's even

harder to find.

Well, then there must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls.

Because all I see is a tower of dreams.

Is everything all set?

What are you talking about?

Harriet, tonight, my new boss, Captain Savage, is coming for dinner.

Oh, honey, just relax.

Dinner's on the stove and everything is set. Okay, maybe you should go upstairs

and get dressed.

I am dressed.

And you look fantastic.

I'm sorry, honey. I'm just a little nervous tonight.

This dinner could be my ticket to a big promotion.

Honey, just relax.

Everything's going to be fine.

Yeah, you're right.

I guess I should just relax and enjoy it.

Oh, my God, he's here.

He's here.

He's here. Okay.

Okay.

Well,

Captain, welcome to my humble abode.

I'd see it better from the inside.

Oh, yes, yes. Please, come inside, sir. Come inside.

Well... Nice digs, Winslow.

Thank you, Captain.

You're not on a take, are you?

Sir, may I say that I cannot tell you what a treat it is... No, make that an

honor. No, no, no.

Make that a privilege it is to have you join us for dinner.

Winslow, you're sucking up. Sorry, sir.

Don't be.

I like a good sucker -upper.

Harriet, this is Captain Savage. Captain Savage, this is my lovely wife,

Harriet. How do you do? Hello.

Savage? Yes, Savage.

Suits me, don't you think?

After all, I'm the roughest, toughest cop on the force. But please, call me by

my first name.

What's that?

Marion.

You're very pretty.

You must have married Carl when he was handsome.

Yes, I did.

Please, have a seat.

Here, I brought you to a gift.

Gorgonzola. Oh, he brought us cheese.

We love cheese.

Hey, what can I say? I consider it that way.

So, Captain Savage, is there a Mrs. Savage?

No way.

I couldn't settle down. I disappoint too many women.

I'm single by popular demand.

I have three passions in life. Women, work, and golf.

Golf. The sport of kings.

And captains.

You play golf, Winslow?

Do I play golf?

Do I play golf?

Everybody in the room who plays golf, raise your hands.

Go on, Harriet. Tell them how much I play golf.

Oh, yes. He plays golf like I've never seen.

on back here and check on them down.

So, Winslow, what do you say we take in 18 holes with Dr.

Mark? Oh, gee, sir, I don't know. I'm having my putter re -putted. Oh,

Nonsense. I'll pick up at 8.

I'll be waiting outside at 7.

You know something?

Golf has made me thirsty. Who do I have to promote to get a drink around here?

Promote?

Welcome to the Chicago Chiefs.

Yes, it slipped my mind, sir.

Oh, I like the cut of his jib.

It's an unusually shaped jib, but I like it just the same.

You do, sir?

I cannot believe you showed up at the party. And looking like

that...

Trust me, young lady.

What I look like is the least of your worries.

How could you do this to me, Mom?

Do this to you? You know perfectly well you were supposed to be home by

midnight. Mom, I told you. I lost track of time.

Why are you freaking out like this?

Because we have rules, Laura. And as long as you're living under my rules,

better abide by them.

Mom, do you have any idea how humiliated I was tonight?

Everyone was staring.

None of... this would have happened if you had come home on time. Mom, none of

this would have happened if you just stopped treating me like a child.

Treating you like a child?

I'll stop treating you like a child when you stop acting like a child. Now go to

bed. You're grounded for a month.

I'll never forgive you for this, Mom.

Never.

Nothing like starting the day with a good hearty breakfast.

Thanks for treating, Winslow.

Hey, my pleasure, sir.

Especially since you forgot your wallet. Don't you just hate when that happens?

I sure do.

We insist.

That's one.

So, you want to go on to Chapter 12?

We don't have to.

You still mad at your mom?

What do you think?

I'll never live down what she did to me.

What did she do that was so bad?

You were there.

She had the nerve to yank me out of the party, and on top of that, she wore

curlers in a row.

Yeah, someday that'll be a funny story.

Not soon, though.

You are so lucky, Max.

Your mother never butts into your life.

Laura, you have no idea how lucky you are.

I got home at 3 a .m. from the party, and you know who was waiting up on me?

Who? No one.

No one was worrying about me or asking why I was so late.

No one cared, Laura.

No one cared at all.

You know, so instead of complaining so much about how mean your mother is, you

should appreciate the fact that she cares about you.

Because you know what?

I would trade places with you in a hot second.

It's your putt, Marion.

This place is like a jungle. Don't you ever mow this grass?

Carl, have

you noticed that Marion has been augmenting his luck all day?

Oh, yeah, I've noticed.

Well, what are you going to do about it?

Exactly what I've been doing.

Absolutely nothing.

My kidding's wrong.

Steve, who is he hurting?

I mean, look, Steve, if you want to get ahead in life, sometimes you've just got

to play along.

Well, I can understand a little butt -tissing at the dinner table, but this

revolting. Why, you've abandoned every strand of dignity.

Listen, Steve.

Hey, hey, hey.

It's up to you.

Handle it the way you see fit.

After all, you're the one that's going to have to live with yourself.

It's closer than I thought.

Sir, I believe that you kicked your ball closer to the hole.

I did?

Well, yes, sir.

Actually, you know, your ball has moved several times today without the club

even touching it.

What are you saying, Winslow?

Well, sir, I'm saying that, well, that you're cheating, sir.

I'm what?

Cheating, sir.

And I believe that that's wrong.

Sir, we are cops.

We're the good guys.

We are supposed to do what's right.

And we have a teenager with us.

Hey, if we don't do what's right, how can we expect the kids to do what's

I have been a golfer for 20 years, and no one has ever called me a cheater.

And I'm your superior officer.

I could bust you down to beat cops so fast it'll make your head swim.

I know, sir.

And you're still standing up to me?

Yes, sir.

I like that.

We need more honest cops on the force.

Cops with enough guts to tell their bosses when they're doing something

Well, thank you, sir.

Do it again and you're fired! Yes, sir.

Yes? You want to talk?

I'd like that.

Mom, I messed up big time. I'm so sorry I stayed out late.

You are?

Yeah.

I know why you came and got me.

You were worried about me, right?

Yes, I was.

It's just that when you showed up sporting those curlers, I

wanted to die.

I don't blame you.

It's just that it was after 1 o 'clock, and I didn't know if you were still at

the party or hurt somewhere.

I didn't think about changing my clothes.

I just wanted to know that you were all right.

Well, if I had a 16 -year -old and I didn't know where she was at 1 in the

morning, I probably would have done the same thing.

Laura, are you growing up?

Tell you what, I'll talk to your father and see how he feels about extending

your curfew to 1230.

Thanks, Ma.

How about 1245?

Don't push it.
