Here we are, face to face, sucking on the silver spoon.

Hoping to find we're two of a kind.

Make it a goal, make it a goal. Together, we're going to find our

way.

Together,

taking the time each day.

To learn all about those things you just can't buy.

Two silver spoons together.

You and I together.

We're gonna find our way.

You and I.

neighbor.

not gnarly.

Do you have any idea where he'd go?

Someplace tubular.

Right.

Nate, if he shows up, if you see him anywhere, would you please give me a

Thank you.

Dexter? Well, Edward, we scoured the underbelly of this township, the video

arcade, the record store, the emergency room.

What, the emergency room? Relax, Edward. The emergency room is a teen dance

club.

We also call the morgue.

That's another teen dance club.

No, it's a place where they take dead people.

I've come, though.

Well, he wasn't there.

Have you heard from Kate?

Yeah, she checked the bus station and the airplane. She's now checking the

terminals.

The police are looking.

I guess there's nothing.

Lots to do except sit here and worry.

I'm certain you'll be back soon, Edwards.

Yeah, how can you be so certain? Because I did the same thing when I was 14.

I got missed at my parents, ran away to join the circus.

Wow.

What do you want to be?

A clown or a lion tamer?

Neither. I wanted to do their book.

What happened?

Well, I had this heart -to -heart talk with Cupcake, the clown.

He convinced me to return home.

What did Cupcake say?

Looked me straight in the face, said young man.

That's when I realized those people were nuts.

I was much better off at home.

I sure hope Rick runs into somebody wise enough to tell him...

I have been worried sick about you. You didn't tell him I was here, did you?

I keep my promises.

Good. Did you have a hard time finding this place?

Well, not after I found a cab driver who was willing to come into the

neighborhood.

Come begging with me.

Oh,

no wonder.

Hey, you want to come over to my place and see my collection of old tinfoil?

I don't think so.

Oh, please.

We're busy. Could you leave us alone?

I'll get you something.

We have Snickers, Fritos, a can of tuna.

No, thank you.

I make it a point never to eat in a room where the air freshener is a no -pest

strip.

This, see, this is just temporary.

See, I've got plans.

I'm going to move to L .A., I'm going to finish school, and I'm going to work

part -time making rock videos.

I already wrote a letter to Adam Ant.

Sounds like a plan.

I called to say goodbye.

Oh, that's very sweet.

And to borrow some money.

That's very crafty.

It was mostly for the sweet part.

Yeah, I see.

Rick, don't you think you're reacting to your father a little too emotionally?

Emotionally?

Emotionally? Is the whole world against me?

My dad doesn't understand.

Treat me like a little boy, and that hurts.

Us men, we have deep feelings.

Oh, I know you do.

You must be going through heck right now.

I mean, to run away and leave your father and your friends.

Not to mention Tawny Oaklethorpe.

They'll be at the clam bake some of the cows.

Certainly sounds like you've made up your mind.

Any message you'd like me to give your father?

Absolutely not.

Well, maybe just this.

Tell him we had a few laughs, but it just didn't work out. That's all.

Okay.

I'll tell him. Could also say... Someday when he's ready to talk reasonably, we

can sit down and have a cup of coffee.

I can also tell him we had some wonderful times together.

And I loved him a lot.

Rick, why don't you call him and tell him that yourself?

I have nothing to say to the man.

Well, I have something to say to you.

Oh, I'm going to miss you.

I've treasured the time that you've been in my life.

And if I ever have a son...

I want him to be just like you.

Oh, that was beautiful.

I'm going to call my mom.

You know, Kate, maybe I shouldn't have... Yes?

I wish that bum would leave me alone.

She didn't.

Kate, why didn't you tell me he was here?

Because I promised Rick that I wouldn't.

Then who told you?

I did.

I knew you didn't belong here.

What gave me away?

Well, you were wearing a clean shirt with a little animal on it.

So? Little animal wasn't moving.

So I got your real name off the tag on your backpack.

Called the police.

Thanks a lot.

Hey, kid.

I was only trying to help.

I figured you ran away from home.

Parents were worried.

There might be a reward in it.

an important business meeting. Please consider our Versailles room.

Alarm scared him off.

Oh, Rick, how could you run away to a fleabag hotel like this?

It's not that bad.

Are you serious? I feel like I've got to wash my hands. Dad, don't touch the

water.

Couple of different guys.

Gee, I heard there was a car stolen in America every minute.

But I had no idea. idea. It was the same car.

Son, when you were missing, I was worried sick.

I tried to tell myself not to worry so much. Now I see this place.

I realize I didn't worry enough.

And you wanted me to trust you, huh?

Why don't we go home, huh?

It's almost midnight.

Yeah, it's another thing. You violated your curfew again.

No, I didn't.

I checked in by 9 o 'clock.

Ask the manager.

Now there's a reliable witness.

Mom, don't have...

This is Tawny Oglethorpe.

Isn't she terrific?

I'm really pining for her.

Me too.

an assault group.

Can't. I've been grounded.

What's bringing you?

You're going over the wall.

I can't, Alfonso. If I got caught, I'd be in solitary confinement for 99 years.

Okay, Edward. The category is entertainment.

Here's the question.

Name the members of TV's Nelson family.

That's an easy one.

Ozzie, Harriet, David, and...

have disobeyed Ozzie and run away to a fleabag hotel.

No, the biggest problem they ever had was whether or not the malt shop was out

of tutti -frutti ice cream.

I just don't think I've been handling this right.

I'm going to change that right now. I'm going to go up there, and we're going to

have a talk.

What am I doing?

I always chase after him.

He wants to talk to me. He knows where I am.

Now, look. at me now i'm so i'm bigger than that why is it always

me that has to make the first move because i'm the adult that's why you

know he's really interesting to watch there's another thing

for you to consider tony told us to tell you she'd be real disappointed if you

can't be there to see her brand new bikini

What are you worried about, the warden checking on you?

Don't sweat it.

Let's take some pillows and junk, put them under the covers, make it look like

you're sleeping, cut the lights.

Connie wants to see you.

Can't miss this fun, Rick.

Everybody's gonna be there, Rick.

I overheard Rick talking with some of his friends. They must have come in

through the window.

What are they doing there?

Trying to talk Rick into going to the Clambake.

Oh, no.

Well, I hope you quashed their little conspiracy.

I was going to go in there, but I decided, no, I'm not going to keep

same mistakes.

You're going to make different mistakes.

I can't follow him around the rest of his life, Dexter. Rick's a good kid.

Why shouldn't I trust him to make good decisions?

I know it's hard, but I think you're doing the right thing. Well, I

disagree.

Although I've only had Alfonso in my charge for just a few short weeks, I've

already developed some exceptionally sound instincts about child rearing.

For example, he asked me if he could go to that clam gathering.

I refused, because he's got an important exam coming up.

Right now, he's at the library studying with Nathan and Randolph.

Nope, there's no discipline problems in the stuffing's household.

What is it? Dexter.

You didn't see Rick with him, did you?

Well, they all ran by so fast.

I love my son and I trust him.

I'm sure Rick had the good sense not to go with him.

Right.

He's a telephone pole.

Dad.

Rick, son, you're here.

Why wouldn't I be?

I... I... I noticed the dummy in your bed.

Oh. Oh, that.

Well, you see, I... I always wanted to see what I looked like when I was

sleeping.

I never see myself when I was sleeping.

Because when you're sleeping, you're asleep.

Oh.

Well, good night, son. Good night.

Dad.

That's not the real reason why the dummy's in the bed.

See, a bunch of the guys, they climbed up here through the window.

They wanted me to go to the clam bake with them.

Boy, was I tempted.

I told him I couldn't because I was grounded.

I'm glad you did that.

Me too.

Son, I have something to tell you too.

I came up here before and I overheard you talking to your friends.

I wanted to barge in, boy, as I tempted.

But I decided to trust you.

I'm glad you did that.

Me too.

Oh, Rick.

Everything's changing, you know.

I guess I'm just... I can't stand the thought of losing that little kid I used

to have so much fun with.

Sometimes I miss that little kid too.

It was easier when I was younger.

It was easier for me too.

When you were younger, I would tell you what to do and you would do it.

I was so innocent then.

Dad, I really don't want this stuff happening between us anymore.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't we make a pact, huh?

Next time something like this happens, we'll work it out.

Like men.

Deal.

Why don't we do what Kate suggested, huh? You go to that Clambake tonight.

ground you sometime later next week. You mean it? Yeah. Great. Go ahead. Get

dressed. I'll drive.

Don't worry. I'll drop you a block from the beach.

Dad, it's Clambake. It's going to be fantastic.

Yeah.

Gnarly.

Together, we're going to find our way.

Together,

taking the time to stay.

To learn all about those things you just can't buy.
