Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

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

Time's built for school together.

Here's your raincoat.

You can't go to London without one.
Thanks.

I hope my mom recognizes me.

When she dropped me off at Yarrow
Garden, I was a boy.

Now I'm a man.

Yeah, right.

Hey, I've grown a lot.

But, uh, not as much as you have.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Jessica.

Really?

Somebody planted a rose garden in your
locker at school?

I wonder who the mad botanist could be.

Yeah, I am, aren't I?

Tonight? Well, sure.

I'd love to go to a movie tonight, but
I've got to check my calendar first.

call you right back.

What calendar?

The calendar that saves me from telling
her I have to get permission from Daddy.

Yo, Dad!

Oh, I thought you were Dad.

Oh. Must be the coat.

I'm sorry, Kate.

I've just got to ask you something
really important.

Oh, well, maybe I can help.

I don't think so, Kate.

Oh, try me.

All right.

Can I go to a movie tonight?

Tonight? Isn't it a school night?

It's not just a school night.

It's the last school night. Before the
last day of school. Before winter break.

Hey, sounds okay to me. All right.

But it may not sound okay to your
father.

So I think we should wait till he gets
home. Sorry.

Well, look, when he gets back, be sure
to tell him I'm upstairs.

Finishing my homework.

Cleaning my room.

Putting away my clothes.

You're gonna be too tired to go out.

Well, I'll get it.

Hi, Katie.

Is Edward at home? I've got to talk to
him.

You'll just have to take a number.

Well, listen, I just got off the phone
with Carlos and Bimini.

He said the deep, deep fishing couldn't
be better. The marlin are jumping out of

the water into the boat.

Well, then why is Edward out buying all
those rods and reels?

Thank you.

Boy, did that salesman see you coming.

Don't you think you went a little
overboard?

No, but in case I do, I bought this.

Listen, I just spoke to Carlos.

He wants to know if he wanted a schooner
or a cabin cruiser. Yeah, well, which

one costs more?

If I know Carlos, whichever one we
choose.

What do you think? What should we do?

I think we should flip a coin.

Which coin should I use?

Dexter. All right, all right.

Listen, I'll see you tomorrow morning,
bright and early.

Ah, where's Rick?

I want to show him my fish gutter. He's
upstairs.

cleaning his room, putting his things
away, doing his homework.

Uh -oh. What does he want?

He wants to go to a movie tonight, but I
told him he had to wait till you got

home. Well, you could have decided that
without me.

I could have?

Well, we're in this together, honey.
It's about time you start making some

parenting decisions, too, around here. I
don't know. Rick might resent it.

Well, whether he resents it or not, you
know, you are his stepmother.

Rick's going to have to get used to that
fact.

Besides, starting tomorrow, I'll be gone
a whole week. You're going to be in

charge.

That's true. Anyway, what about the
movie tonight?

It's up to you. You decide this one.
Really?

Yeah. All right.

Okay.

Rick! Oh, Rick!

Yeah, Kate?

I've been thinking this over, and I've
decided you can go to the movie tonight.

Kate, you're the best. I'll never forget
it. Thanks.

That wasn't so tough?

Yeah, you did real well. Thank you.
Except for one little thing.

Oh? You didn't ask him what movie he was
going to.

Yes, but... Or who he was going with.

That's two things.

Three. You didn't ask what time he was
coming home.

I'm glad I did so well.

Ron Fisher.

Ron Fisher.

Hey, son, how was the movie?

Scary. Jessica didn't look at the screen
once.

That's terrible. She was practically
sitting on my lap the whole time. That's

not so terrible.

I know.

She'd like to go see it again tomorrow.

Where were these girls when I was
growing up?

Look at this.

What is it?

It's a sonar locator, handheld.

Salesman said it's going to
revolutionize sport fishing.

What's it do?

I have no idea.

Sounds like it's going to be a good
trip.

Yeah, last chance to change your mind. I
told you, Dad. I get seasick just

listening to the Beach Boys.

Okay. Bye.

I'll be spending the whole week taking
Jessica to a Boris Karloff film

We'll miss you, son.

I'll miss you too, Dad, but something
tells me this is going to be a great

winter break.

What do you mean she went out of town?

Well, she didn't tell me she was going
out of town.

Why didn't she tell me she was going out
of town?

Believe me, I'm sorry too.

Goodbye.

Oh.

Oh.

Yo, Stratton. What's going on?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

My girl went out of town. My dad's gone.
Alfonso's visiting his mother.

Brad, I'm looking at what could be the
worst vacation of my life.

Looks like I arrived in the nick of
time.

What do you mean?

Oh, my older brother and his friend are
driving down to Fort Lauderdale for the

break. I was wondering if you wanted to
come along.

Want to.

Want to.

Yeah, do you want to?

Brad, I would love to.

Oh, thanks for thinking of me, bud.

Well, the truth is they already had a
fourth, but he canceled out.

Well, that's okay. He thought I was
second choice.

You were more like fifth choice.

But at least you got asked.

That's right. What does it matter?

I'm going to Fort Lauderdale.

50 ,000 girls in bikinis.

And only one me.

We'll be staying at my grandmother's
condo. I don't care where I stay.

I'll sleep on the floor.

Yeah. We already voted on that.

So, when are we leaving?

In exactly one hour and 43 minutes.

Whoa. You don't leave a guy much time.

I've got to get permission from my
stepmother first.

You shouldn't have any problem.

Stepmothers are pushovers.

I wish I had one.

But my parents refused to get a divorce.

Brad, I sure hope I can go.

Well, me too. Without you to chip in for
the gas, we won't make it out of New

Jersey.

Fort Lauderdale, look out!

Ow!

Hi. Hi.

Who was that?

Brad. He just invited me on a trip to
Fort Lauderdale.

Really? Yeah.

He's leaving this morning.

Can you believe that, Kate?

No notice.

Hmm.

I mean, sure, there's going to be adult
supervision.

And sure, there's going to be an
experienced, responsible driver behind

wheel of a very safe car.

A 65 Mustang.

But that, that is just no reason to go
flying off on a moment's notice.

Leaving you alone for a whole week.

Let me get this straight. You want to
drive to Fort Lauderdale with your

friends? Who? Me?

Rick. Kate, they're not just any
friends.

They're old friends.

Reliable friends.

Mature friends.

Well, where would you be staying?

With Brad's grandmother. An upright,
moral woman.

Well, who's... driving? Brad's older
brother. A very serious guy. He's got no

sense of humor.

He makes you wear a seatbelt when he
parks at a drive -in.

I don't know, Rick. I mean, you're only
15.

In two months, I'll be 16.

Marco Polo went halfway around the world
at 16.

Not in a 65 Mustang.

Please, Kate, please.

Well... I'd have to make a few phone
calls first, like to Brad's mother

555 -3168.

I'll write it down.

Well, then I'd still have to think about
it. Great.

But don't think about it too long.

We leave in one hour and 36 minutes.

Uh -huh.

I see. You mean he has a spotless
driving record. No traffic accidents, no

tickets, no reckless stunts?

Well... Thank you very much, Officer
Grant.

That's some computer you've got there.

Bye.

What are you doing?

What? What? Oh, you mean this.

Well, I just want to be prepared in case
you say yes.

Is it a yes, Kate?

I haven't decided.

And I respect that.

This is a big decision, Kate.

And I don't want to put any pressure on
you.

I appreciate that.

Oops. I forgot my suntan lotion.

No pressure.

So you see, Edward, I thought it over
very carefully and decided to let Rick

with Brad to Fort Lauderdale.

Stepmother, are you?

He's only 15 years old.

So you see, Edward, I thought it over
very carefully and decided not to let

go to Fort Lauderdale.

Why not?

He's 15 years old. It'd be fun.

Teenager's dream.

Boy, Cinderella was right.

Stepmothers are mean.

What's the verdict?

Uh, well... Kate, you can trust me.

Well, I guess there comes a time in
everyone's life when they must act like

adult. I promise, Kate.

I was talking about me.

Okay, Rick, uh, you can go.

All right!

Kate, you're better than the best.

Oh, here,

wait a minute. You're gonna need some
extra money.

And getting better all the time.

Thank you. Bye, honey. Safe trip.

Thank you. Bye.

I did it!

I did it! I actually did it!

this baby, huh?

Did you put up much of a struggle?

Not after we hit it with the boat.

Well, I have to be getting home myself.
I have fish to put in the freezer, air

freshener to put in my car, and... Hey,

where's Rick? I want to show him my
trophy.

Uh, there's a story to that.

Right after you left, all of Rick's
plans for his winter vacation just...

fell through, and the last minute he got
an invitation to go to Fort Lauderdale.

Say no more. I understand he's upstairs
sulking. I'll go talk to him.

Actually, I don't know if he's sulking,
but if he is, he's sulking in Fort

Lauderdale.

You let him go?

I hope it's okay.

Sure. He's doing just fine. He even sent
a postcard.

Yeah. Well, that's great.

He's having a great time.

So you let him go.

Hey, kid. Your hamburgers are ready.

You sure you don't want something for
yourself?

No, I'm not hungry, thanks.

How much is that?

I'd just put it on your bill.

That's $4 ,007.

You're nice going, Stratton.

She made it all the way over here
without damaging anything.

Will you lay off?

I told you, that trucker told me to move
it. He meant the car, not the diner.

Hey, kid, phone's free.

I'm glad something is.

Hello?

Yes, operator, I'll accept the charges.

Hey, Rick.

Yeah, I've been home about an hour.

Yeah.

See it next time you're looking for your
rubber boots.

So where are you, buddy?

Turtle Creek, South Carolina.

We stopped at a place called Harmon's
Diner.

Actually, now more of a drive -in.

Sounds nice.

It's not so nice?

What kind of an accident?

Are you all right?

Dad, I'm fine.

Everybody's fine. No one was hurt.

Except for the car and one very
expensive wall I kind of backed into.

At full speed.

You were driving?

Uh, yeah.

Anyway, the owner, who is a very nice
man, lost $4 ,007.

Between me and the guy, we got the seven
bucks covered.

You stay put. I'm on my way.

Dad, this...

What's wrong? What happened? There's
been a little accident in South

Everybody's okay. Nobody's hurt. I'm
going down there. I'm coming with you.

it's okay, honey. I can handle it.
There's no need for you to feel any

Why should I feel any guilt?

You know, because you... Well, if you
want to come here, grab your coat, and

going to call the company jet.

Here you go, boys. One of my southern
specialties.

Turtle Creek Tapioca.

Uh, we didn't order that. Well, that's
all right. It's left over from

I have to get rid of it anyway.

Hey, thanks.

Don't thank me. Thank his old man. I'm
adding it to his bill.

Good.

Hello?

Hi, Kate.

Hi, Dad.

Thank goodness you weren't hurt. Well, I
told you, that's a safe car, kid.

You must be Evil Knievel Sr.

I'm Harmon.

Ah, the owner.

Can't put anything past you big city
Yankees.

Harmon, do you mind if we sit down here?
Oh, sure, sure, right here.

Now, we've got everything on the menu,
but you just missed the tapioca.

I'll get you some coffee.

What in the world made you get behind
that wheel?

You don't have a license. You've never
had a lesson, and you're underage.

Edward, it was an accident.

You're sticking up for him after the way
he conned you?

Conned me?

I didn't con her, Dad. There is no
excuse, son.

If I had been away for... Wait a minute.
He didn't con me.

You know what I mean. He took advantage
of you.

No, he didn't. You can't learn to handle
a teenager overnight.

Rick, would you please excuse us for a
minute?

Sure, I'll be with my friends.

I need some fresh air anyway.

Edward, I looked into this thing very
carefully.

I called Brad's mother, Brad's
grandmother, Brad's brother.

I did everything that you would have
done.

Except you let him go. It's really a
blast to watch your folks go at it.

But, uh, we gotta go.

Yeah, there's no more tapioca.

So, uh, you coming with us or you going
back with Mommy and Daddy?

What, are you kidding?

I'm going back with you guys.

I'll go tell them.

I'll say goodbye to Harmon first.

Edward, when you told me that I could
start making decisions concerning Rick,

first I thought he might resent it. I
was wrong.

Well, now we're getting somewhere.

You're the one who resents it.

You're so used to thinking that Rick is
your responsibility that you're not

about to share him with me.

Oh, come on.

No, no, you make speeches about how
we're in this together.

But emotionally, you can't let go.

That isn't true.

Yes, it is.

Well, from now on, I think you should
make all the decisions concerning Rick

yourself. Ball's in your court, Edward.

The guy's getting ready to drive back.

You mean that car still runs?

Oh, sure.

There's not as much trunk space anymore,
but it still goes.

So?

So, can I go back with them?

I can't believe you're asking this.

I won't be driving.

Well, I never thought you would, son,
but nevertheless... Please, Dad, we'll

drive carefully.

Frontwards or backwards?

Dad, it was an accident.

How will this look? My parents taking me
home in a private jet while my friends

go off without me?

Please, Dad.

Don't you want to see your only son get
down on his knees and beg?

Wouldn't hurt.

Come on.

That was a tough one.

Well, what do you think?

Oh, you want to know what I think?

Yeah.

I feel this is a decision we should make
together.

Just this one time.

No, no, no, no, no, no. This is no
different from any other decision that

have to make.

Maybe a little tougher.

You're asking for my help? Yes.

And so am I, Kate.

Well... Please, Kate.

Yeah, please, Kate.

Okay. I think we should let him go.

All right!

But first your father has to decide how
long you should be grounded.

Grounded? I think two months would be
fair.

Two months?

You're lucky you didn't rob a bank.

Guys, it's just a small hole in a diner.

Harmon can fix this easily once you give
him the $4 ,000.

But then again, two months is not so
bad.

Yeah, let's chat and we're going.

Well, I'll see you at home.

Bye, Dad. Bye, Kate.

Bye.

And Kate, you really are the best.

Nice kid.

Here's his bill.
