00:00:01,102 --> 00:00:02,834
<I> previously on</I> popular...

2
00:00:02,903 --> 00:00:05,237
  I've been a little stressed
  Lately. I'll admit that.

3
00:00:05,306 --> 00:00:06,438
       The problem is...

4
00:00:06,507 --> 00:00:08,207
    Her.
                        Her.

5
00:00:09,110 --> 00:00:10,109
         She's a liar.

6
00:00:10,177 --> 00:00:12,211
    She's the liar,
    Turning me into somebody

7
00:00:12,279 --> 00:00:13,745
      I don't want to be.

8
00:00:13,814 --> 00:00:17,049
[mike] If you two can get
Past this pettiness,

9
00:00:17,118 --> 00:00:18,149
You could be friends.

10
00:00:18,219 --> 00:00:20,385
                That is never
                Going to happen.

11

       We've told you the truth,

12
00:00:22,156 --> 00:00:24,790
    So now we're going
    To tell you the consequence.

13
00:00:24,858 --> 00:00:27,126
We're moving in together.
[mike] All of us.

14
00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:35,400
  Hey, what are you doing?
  Uh-uh. That lamp is butt-ugly.

15
00:00:35,469 --> 00:00:37,802
This lamp
Is a part of my history.

16
00:00:37,871 --> 00:00:40,905
I boycotted home economics
In seventh grade for being
Gender exclusionary

17
00:00:40,974 --> 00:00:42,574
And wired it in shop class.

18
00:00:42,643 --> 00:00:45,244
         Let me make it
         Simple for you, roomie.

19
00:00:45,312 --> 00:00:48,480
        This lamp is going in
        Over my dead body. Okay?

20
00:00:48,549 --> 00:00:51,082
Well, fine.
Glad to help you out.

21
00:00:51,151 --> 00:00:53,719
           Hey, boys, back it up
           Nice and slow.

22
00:00:53,787 --> 00:00:56,522
Brooke there's gonna
Lay under the back tires.

23
00:00:56,590 --> 00:00:58,723
Don't you think you should
Reconsider the placement?

24
00:00:58,792 --> 00:01:00,659
Shouldn't the mugs
Go where they were?

25
00:01:00,727 --> 00:01:04,963
     No. I think the mugs should
     Go above the coffeepot.

26
00:01:06,267 --> 00:01:08,833
            How about...

27
00:01:08,902 --> 00:01:11,336
      We resolve this dilemma,

28
00:01:11,405 --> 00:01:15,441
     On our first day of living
     Together in domestic bliss,

29
00:01:15,509 --> 00:01:18,610
          With a hot game
          Of nude leg wrestling?

30
00:01:18,679 --> 00:01:19,778
          Pretty good?

31
00:01:19,847 --> 00:01:21,780
        Yes.
No!

32
00:01:21,849 --> 00:01:23,315
    Get a room, mom.

33
00:01:23,384 --> 00:01:25,551
                    Hey, sammie.

34
00:01:25,619 --> 00:01:27,152
Cool lamp.

35
00:01:29,856 --> 00:01:31,623
           [mike] Brooke, honey.

36
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:36,228
 Let's make sam feel welcome.
 Why don't you help her unpack?

37
00:01:36,297 --> 00:01:38,530
   Let's make this a smooth
   Homecoming for her, okay?

38
00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:40,232
I'm on it, daddy.

39
00:01:47,374 --> 00:01:49,708
Okay, whatever.
Why are you moving my stuff?

40
00:01:49,776 --> 00:01:52,677
      Excuse me.
      The right sink is my sink.

41
00:01:52,746 --> 00:01:54,579
     It has always been my sink.

42
00:01:54,648 --> 00:01:56,115
           God, you are so rude.

43
00:01:56,183 --> 00:01:57,982
         It's called boundaries.
         Look into it.

44
00:01:58,051 --> 00:02:00,585
The right sink is my sink,
Princess powder puff.

45
00:02:00,654 --> 00:02:02,020
It was at my house.

46
00:02:02,088 --> 00:02:03,888
          We're not
          At your house anymore.

47
00:02:03,957 --> 00:02:06,825
         And that is my stress
         Relief, sticky fingers.

48
00:02:06,893 --> 00:02:10,329
Oh, good god, woman. Why do you
Need so many products?

49
00:02:10,397 --> 00:02:13,665
With all the lotions and potions
You use, it's a wonder your face

50
00:02:13,734 --> 00:02:15,700
          Doesn't just slide off
          Down the drain.

51
00:02:19,273 --> 00:02:20,839
        Okay. Excuse me.

52
00:02:20,907 --> 00:02:22,607

54
00:02:29,216 --> 00:02:30,249
                   Okay.

55
00:02:30,317 --> 00:02:31,483
             Here are the rules.

56
00:02:31,552 --> 00:02:34,018
         You may invade my space
And destroy my family

57
00:02:34,087 --> 00:02:37,689
  And have my father fooled with
  Your big, brown bambi eyes

58
00:02:37,758 --> 00:02:39,524
             That you bat around
             Like a stripper,

59
00:02:39,593 --> 00:02:42,761
          But this is one battle
          You're losing.

60
00:02:42,829 --> 00:02:46,030
      This is the line of death.
      Cross it and die.

61
00:02:46,099 --> 00:02:49,401
You know, saddam, I really feel
No need to cross the line here.

 Let it suffice to say that...

Your stern punishment helped me
Reevaluate my character,

Made me realize
I'd rather be

A generous, civic-minded person

81

00:06:52,212 --> 00:06:55,079
 <I> you got what it takes to keep</I>
 <I> the family tradition alive?</I>

144
00:06:55,148 --> 00:06:57,916
You have a huge enough head
To balance that tiara on.

145
00:06:57,984 --> 00:07:02,987
Mama, I want that crown,
And I'll do anything to get it.

146
00:07:03,056 --> 00:07:04,322
           Anything.

147
00:07:04,390 --> 00:07:07,092
        That's my girl.

148
00:07:09,596 --> 00:07:12,664
I can't believe I got nominated
For queen. That is so cool.

149
00:07:12,733 --> 00:07:16,334
I'm new to this school. I didn't
Think that many people knew me.

150
00:07:16,402 --> 00:07:18,970
   You're not the only one who's
   Pleasantly surprised, popita.

151
00:07:19,039 --> 00:07:22,006
 I just figured most people
 Would be consumed with jealousy

152
00:07:22,075 --> 00:07:25,677
           Over my stunning,
           Exotic good looks

153
00:07:25,746 --> 00:07:27,846
         And throw their support
         To plainer girls,

154
00:07:27,914 --> 00:07:29,514
                 Like you.

155
00:07:29,583 --> 00:07:30,815
                  Hey, popita,

156
00:07:30,884 --> 00:07:32,984
          Isn't carmen ferrara's
Nomination a hoot?

157
00:07:33,053 --> 00:07:35,654
Yeah. Do you want
To come over after school

158
00:07:35,722 --> 00:07:37,121
And work on campaign posters?

159
00:07:37,190 --> 00:07:39,157
                    Yes.
That'd be so much fun.

160
00:07:39,225 --> 00:07:40,725
[nicole] That's not
Gonna happen, popita.

161
00:07:42,496 --> 00:07:45,830
       How can the two of you
       Even think of campaigning
       Against brooke?

162
00:07:45,899 --> 00:07:46,865
         Where's your loyalty?

163
00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:48,500
Where's your
Glamazon spirit?

164
00:07:49,703 --> 00:07:50,969
                I'm stunned.

165
00:07:51,037 --> 00:07:52,904
                  Well, um, nic,

166
00:07:52,973 --> 00:07:55,039
         It's not like we're
         Runnin' against brooke.

167
00:07:55,108 --> 00:07:56,174
We're just,

168
00:07:56,242 --> 00:07:58,376
        You know, havin' fun
        With our own nomination.

169
00:07:58,444 --> 00:08:00,544
      Well, put your
      Magic markers away, texas.

170
00:08:00,614 --> 00:08:03,581
'cause in both your cases,
The nomination is honor enough.

171
00:08:03,649 --> 00:08:05,383
             Nobody's gonna vote
             For you anyway.

172
00:08:05,451 --> 00:08:08,186
 You're both new gals on
 The scene with no support base.

173
00:08:08,254 --> 00:08:10,054
Brooke's only
True competition is me,

174
00:08:10,123 --> 00:08:12,056
And since I can't run this year,

175
00:08:12,125 --> 00:08:14,358
     I've decided
     To stick close to the flame

176
00:08:14,427 --> 00:08:15,660
And be her campaign manager.

177
00:08:15,729 --> 00:08:16,661
                      [brooke]
                      Hey, guys.

178
00:08:16,730 --> 00:08:18,196
        Hey, poppy, mary cherry,

179
00:08:18,265 --> 00:08:20,231
         Congratulations on your
         Nominations for queen.

180
00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:21,666
           That is so great.

181
00:08:21,735 --> 00:08:23,601
               We are gonna have
               So much fun.

182
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:25,136
     No matter who wins, okay?

183
00:08:25,205 --> 00:08:26,505
[nicole]
Hey, brooky, good news.

184
00:08:26,573 --> 00:08:29,207
Mary cherry and popita
Have just informed me

185
00:08:29,276 --> 00:08:30,876
That they're voting for you.

186
00:08:30,944 --> 00:08:32,410
                       You guys!

187
00:08:32,478 --> 00:08:35,346
In fact, they're
Campaigning for you.

188
00:08:35,415 --> 00:08:36,715
        Isn't that right, girls?

189
00:08:36,783 --> 00:08:40,384
           Hope you win, brooke.
           You deserve to win.

190
00:08:42,689 --> 00:08:44,022
                Wow.

191
00:08:44,090 --> 00:08:45,389
Brooke, are you okay?

192
00:08:45,458 --> 00:08:47,291
     Are you withdrawin'
     On account of illness?

193
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,128
        [brooke] No. It's, um...
        I just feel like I get

194
00:08:50,196 --> 00:08:52,230
  No support at home anymore,

195
00:08:52,298 --> 00:08:56,000
And it's really cool that I have
Friends who care about me.

196
00:08:57,503 --> 00:08:58,703
           [josh] So, queen b...

197
00:08:58,772 --> 00:09:01,539
                            Yes?
Do you need an escort
For the crowning?

198
00:09:01,607 --> 00:09:03,875
I think so. Yeah.

199
00:09:03,944 --> 00:09:05,610
You know I do.

200
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,579
                       [kissing]

201
00:09:09,816 --> 00:09:11,382
       I still can't believe it.

202
00:09:11,451 --> 00:09:14,252
           Me, nominated
           For homecoming queen.

203
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,288
  What did it feel like
  When they announced your name?

204
00:09:17,357 --> 00:09:18,557
            It was totally wild.

205
00:09:18,625 --> 00:09:21,559
    I could feel the blood rush
    Into my cheeks immediately,

206
00:09:21,627 --> 00:09:22,994
      And everything went white.

207
00:09:23,063 --> 00:09:25,596
       It was like
       This weird tunnel effect.

208
00:09:25,666 --> 00:09:29,400
Doesn't the same thing
Happen when you die?

209
00:09:29,469 --> 00:09:32,070
Well, I guess a part of me
   Did die, harrison.

210
00:09:32,138 --> 00:09:33,738
              The part that
              Never gets picked.

211
00:09:33,807 --> 00:09:34,973
      I think it's great.

212
00:09:35,041 --> 00:09:37,008
Congratulations.
            Thanks.

213
00:09:38,812 --> 00:09:40,812
But the thing
About homecoming queen

214
00:09:40,881 --> 00:09:43,248
Is the outcome
Is always such a joke.

215
00:09:43,316 --> 00:09:46,584
Why do people crown somebody
They secretly can't stand?

216
00:09:46,653 --> 00:09:48,152
Why do they compromise
Themselves?

217
00:09:48,221 --> 00:09:50,088
            A.K.A. Susie hatter,

218
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:52,156
Last year's
Homecoming queen from hell.

219
00:09:52,225 --> 00:09:54,092
Isn't homecoming queen
Supposed to be

220
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,760
The person who you feel
Best represents you?

221
00:09:56,830 --> 00:09:58,597
She didn't represent me.

222
00:09:58,665 --> 00:10:00,799
      Yeah, but she won.
[harrison] I admit.

223
00:10:00,867 --> 00:10:02,166
I voted for old suze.

224
00:10:02,235 --> 00:10:03,702
Why?
                            Why?

225
00:10:03,770 --> 00:10:05,336
'cause she looked the part.

226
00:10:05,405 --> 00:10:06,871
She was a hottie.

227
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:09,173
   It kills me that
   Brooke mcqueen's gonna win

228
00:10:09,242 --> 00:10:10,942
Like she wins
Everything else.

229
00:10:11,011 --> 00:10:13,377
   Wait. Wait.
   What are you guys saying?

230
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:15,279
                 You don't think
                 I have a chance

231
00:10:15,348 --> 00:10:16,881
           'cause I'm not some
           Stereotypical hottie?

232
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,984
Some people obviously want
A new kind of homecoming queen.

233
00:10:20,053 --> 00:10:21,653
      Some people
      Obviously wanted me.

234
00:10:21,722 --> 00:10:22,954
        And if you think

235
00:10:23,023 --> 00:10:26,057
    That brooke mcqueen has just
    Got this race all sewn up,

236
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:28,793
          Then don't bother
          Casting a vote for me,

237
00:10:28,862 --> 00:10:30,895
 'cause I don't need your pity.

238
00:10:36,636 --> 00:10:38,036
    Ouch.

239
00:10:38,104 --> 00:10:42,040
  Okay, you guys, next time
  She's nominated for something,

240
00:10:42,108 --> 00:10:44,242
We keep our cynical traps shut

241
00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:46,110
     And just support her.
[harrison] Yeah.

242
00:10:46,179 --> 00:10:48,279
  But we know brooke mcqueen's
  Gonna win.

243
00:10:48,348 --> 00:10:49,781
[harrison] Yeah.

244
00:10:49,850 --> 00:10:52,583
Yeah, queen mcqueen at school,

245
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:55,086
     Queen mcqueen at home.

246
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:59,523
         This one is of brooke
         On her tenth halloween.

247
00:10:59,592 --> 00:11:01,826
       She was trick-or-treating
       As princess diana.

248
00:11:01,895 --> 00:11:03,594
                      [jane] Aw.
[sam] Brooke, what a stretch.

249
00:11:03,664 --> 00:11:06,530
     What'd you go as that year,
     The bride of frankenstein?

250
00:11:06,599 --> 00:11:08,332
 [both] Why are we doing this?

251
00:11:08,401 --> 00:11:11,002
Come on. Jane and I thought
This would be neat.

252
00:11:11,071 --> 00:11:12,937
Since we're living
Together as a family...

253
00:11:13,006 --> 00:11:15,439
    [jane] You need to establish
Some family history.

254
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:17,141
            Come on. Next slide.
            Moving on.

255
00:11:17,210 --> 00:11:20,011
This next one happens
To be one of my favorites.

256
00:11:22,582 --> 00:11:24,515
    Daddy, why is that in there?

257
00:11:24,584 --> 00:11:26,384
Hey, don't get upset.
That's funny.

258
00:11:26,452 --> 00:11:28,286
  [brooke] That is not funny.

259
00:11:28,354 --> 00:11:30,488
We call this
"Brooke's worst hair day ever."

260
00:11:30,556 --> 00:11:33,557
She had the flu.
It was coming out of both ends.

261
00:11:33,626 --> 00:11:35,593
                Moving on, dad!

262
00:11:35,661 --> 00:11:37,028
                    Now!

263
00:11:37,097 --> 00:11:38,529
    Okay. On to sam.

264
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:40,631
    Oh.

265
00:11:40,701 --> 00:11:42,901
Uh, wait.
Could we go back?

266
00:11:42,969 --> 00:11:45,636
I really like the "Coming out
Of both ends" picture.

267
00:11:45,706 --> 00:11:47,538
      [mike] So do I.
             [brooke] We got it!

268
00:11:47,607 --> 00:11:48,907
             On to sam!
                           Okay.

269
00:11:48,975 --> 00:11:51,042
All right, all right.

270
00:11:55,248 --> 00:11:56,647
        [jane] Oh, that's, um...

271
00:11:56,717 --> 00:12:00,384
               That's sam's dad.
               That's joe.

272
00:12:00,453 --> 00:12:02,921
              That one must have
              Crept in there.

273
00:12:16,602 --> 00:12:18,069
            [mike]
            Sam, I couldn't help

274
00:12:18,138 --> 00:12:20,638
Noticing all that pretty neat
Stuff you moved in.

275
00:12:20,706 --> 00:12:23,107
           I can't stop thinking
           About that cool lamp.

276
00:12:23,176 --> 00:12:24,308
Thanks.

277
00:12:24,377 --> 00:12:27,511
        Um, I have
        An announcement to make.

278
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:28,980
What? You're moving out?

279
00:12:29,049 --> 00:12:32,316
No, sam. I was just
Gonna tell dad and jane

280
00:12:32,385 --> 00:12:36,454
That today I got nominated
For homecoming queen.

281
00:12:36,522 --> 00:12:38,689
            Honey, that's great.

282
00:12:38,759 --> 00:12:40,892
         That's just...
         [jane] That is so cool.

283
00:12:40,961 --> 00:12:44,295
  We can go to the big game
  Together. We can make posters.

284
00:12:44,364 --> 00:12:46,430
          It's gonna be a really
          Great family project.

285
00:12:47,868 --> 00:12:49,067
                     Right, sam?

286
00:12:49,135 --> 00:12:51,602
  Uh, actually, mom, I can't.

287
00:12:51,671 --> 00:12:53,304
It'd be a conflict of interest.

288
00:12:53,373 --> 00:12:55,273
                    Why is that?

289
00:12:55,341 --> 00:12:57,808
  Because I'm running carmen's
  Homecoming queen campaign.

290
00:12:57,877 --> 00:12:59,443
Sorry, brooke.

291
00:12:59,512 --> 00:13:01,212
         But good luck.

294
00:13:13,659 --> 00:13:15,994
We're voting for brooke mcqueen
For queen, right?

295
00:13:16,062 --> 00:13:18,696
        Yeah. Anything else
        Is just a wasted ballot,

296
00:13:18,764 --> 00:13:20,031
      'cause she's the favorite.

297
00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:22,133
May, what are you eating?

298
00:13:22,202 --> 00:13:23,634

299
00:13:34,947 --> 00:13:36,747
[brooke]
I miss seeing your smile.

300
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:38,716
On the poster, I mean.

301
00:13:38,784 --> 00:13:40,884
It's pretty blank,
Don't you think?

302
00:13:40,954 --> 00:13:44,255
    Yeah. I had to make 50
    Of these last night by hand,

303
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:46,690
         And I didn't have
         The time or woman power

304
00:13:46,759 --> 00:13:49,694
        To plaster a picture on.

305
00:13:49,762 --> 00:13:51,395
Let me run your campaign.

306
00:13:51,464 --> 00:13:54,599
             Why? So you can
             Get back at brooke?

307
00:13:54,667 --> 00:13:56,434
                Give it up.
                She's a shoo-in.

308
00:13:56,502 --> 00:13:59,470
     Listen, I know you're
     Having a rough time at home

309
00:13:59,539 --> 00:14:01,239
               With feeling like
You don't belong,

310
00:14:01,307 --> 00:14:03,774
           But I gotta tell you,

311
00:14:03,844 --> 00:14:05,776
            You're turning into
            A major drag.

312
00:14:05,846 --> 00:14:08,879
You're right. You're right.

313
00:14:08,948 --> 00:14:12,116
I'm a drag, and I'm sorry.

314
00:14:12,185 --> 00:14:14,218
            Maybe if you came on
            As campaign manager,

315
00:14:14,287 --> 00:14:15,553
         It'd be like old times.

316
00:14:15,621 --> 00:14:17,955
               Us running around
               Having a blast.

317
00:14:18,023 --> 00:14:19,390
     I'm probably not gonna win,

318
00:14:19,459 --> 00:14:21,959
            But it might be cool
            To show them that

319
00:14:22,027 --> 00:14:24,094
       They have another choice.
I'd love that.

320
00:14:24,164 --> 00:14:25,829
              Okay. Done.

321
00:14:26,932 --> 00:14:28,132
                     Okay.

322
00:14:28,201 --> 00:14:31,702
           No dirty campaigning.
           No more negativity.

323
00:14:31,771 --> 00:14:34,772
Um, girl scout's honor.
                      All right.

324
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,574
               One more question
               About brooke

325
00:14:36,642 --> 00:14:39,910
        And then we are done
        Talking about her
        For the entire campaign.

326
00:14:39,979 --> 00:14:42,246
         What does she look like
         In the morning?

327
00:14:42,315 --> 00:14:46,617
 Please tell me she doesn't wake
 Up in full blonde goddess mode.

328
00:14:46,686 --> 00:14:50,989
Well, um, she actually
Kind of looks like this.

329
00:14:51,057 --> 00:14:52,690
                     Oh, my god!

330
00:14:52,758 --> 00:14:54,892
                That's horrible.

331
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:55,894
                    I'm haunted.

332
00:14:55,962 --> 00:14:57,761
        Yes.

333
00:14:57,830 --> 00:15:02,400
  Okay, who am I kidding? I look
  Worse than this most mornings.

334
00:15:02,469 --> 00:15:04,835
[sighs] Yeah, so do I.

335
00:15:06,272 --> 00:15:08,038
[carmen]
Okay, maybe not worse than that.

336
00:15:08,108 --> 00:15:10,441
                 Equally as bad.

337
00:15:16,182 --> 00:15:17,781
          Hey, what's up lady t?

338
00:15:17,850 --> 00:15:20,118
Not a single one of your
Campaign posters.

339
00:15:20,186 --> 00:15:21,319
That's for damn sure.

340
00:15:21,387 --> 00:15:23,654
          Yeah, I decided
          To keep a low profile.

341
00:15:23,723 --> 00:15:25,156
Low profile, my butt.

342
00:15:25,225 --> 00:15:28,759
The 4-1-1 on the street is that
You decided to be invisible

343
00:15:28,828 --> 00:15:30,961
So that you don't
Offend brooke mcqueen.

344
00:15:31,030 --> 00:15:32,763
Mm-hmm. Thought so.

345
00:15:32,832 --> 00:15:34,598
Girl, we need to talk.

346
00:15:35,969 --> 00:15:37,335
It's very important to me

347
00:15:37,403 --> 00:15:39,737
And to the minority students
At the school

348
00:15:39,805 --> 00:15:41,205
That you run for queen.

349
00:15:41,274 --> 00:15:44,075
   Okay, this is just a race
   For a cheap rhinestone crown.

350
00:15:44,144 --> 00:15:45,809
    It is not a political event.

351
00:15:45,878 --> 00:15:48,412
For us, poppy,
For people of color,

352
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:50,148
Everything's political
At some point.

353
00:15:50,216 --> 00:15:52,350
In the magazines
And the commercials,

354
00:15:52,418 --> 00:15:54,685
I never see me
Looking back at me.

355
00:15:54,754 --> 00:15:55,886
It's like I'm invisible.

356
00:15:55,956 --> 00:15:58,689
           I know what you mean.
           I feel the same way.

357
00:15:58,758 --> 00:16:01,325
See what I'm sayin'?
So we gotta represent.

358
00:16:01,394 --> 00:16:03,661
The last queen of color
Was cleopatra,

359
00:16:03,729 --> 00:16:05,596
And she been dead
For two millenniums.

360
00:16:05,665 --> 00:16:07,532
It's time.

361
00:16:11,437 --> 00:16:13,738
   Uch! The only reason
   She's doing carmen's campaign

362
00:16:13,806 --> 00:16:15,439
           Is to get back at me.

363
00:16:15,508 --> 00:16:18,742
      It's not enough that she's
      A total sink terrorist.

364
00:16:18,811 --> 00:16:21,779
      Though it's kind of great
      That carmen got nominated.

365
00:16:21,847 --> 00:16:24,582
It's funny how people
  Can twist a sick little joke

366
00:16:24,650 --> 00:16:26,184
 Into a personality validation.

367
00:16:26,252 --> 00:16:29,353
             What do you mean
             A sick little joke?

368
00:16:29,422 --> 00:16:31,255
            Nic, did you rig
            The nominations?

369
00:16:33,092 --> 00:16:35,393
   Honey, of course I didn't.

370
00:16:36,496 --> 00:16:37,695
                 Okay.

371
00:16:37,763 --> 00:16:40,198
         You know, carmen's been
         Putting up posters.

372
00:16:40,266 --> 00:16:42,266
    Maybe I should
    Start campaigning more.

373
00:16:42,335 --> 00:16:43,401
You don't have to.

374
00:16:43,470 --> 00:16:45,803
You've got the chess club
In your prada bag.

375
00:16:45,872 --> 00:16:47,872
The race is done, hon.
Over.

376
00:16:47,940 --> 00:16:50,240
What's the chess club
           Have to do with it?

377
00:16:50,310 --> 00:16:53,711
The chess club
Is to our queenly race

378
00:16:53,779 --> 00:16:56,180
What new hampshire is to
The presidential election.

379

Small, easy to step right over,

00:16:58,284 --> 00:17:00,051
But the voice of the people.

If you hear that I'm running,
That's just a rumor.

I couldn't go against brooke.

              Oh, I'm so scared.

What are you saying, nic?

394
00:17:31,684 --> 00:17:34,918
I'm not a viable candidate
Because I'm a woman of color?

I don't have a chance against
Whitey because I'm a minority?

It's time to add some salsa

From the bob mackie collection

                Jealousy.

419
00:18:43,123 --> 00:18:46,290
Your friend brooke is just sweet
And thin as saltwater taffy,

420
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,626
But she's not
The only peacock in the pen.

421
00:18:48,694 --> 00:18:50,261
            It's a futile cause.

422
00:18:50,330 --> 00:18:52,930
    My best friend,
    Brooke mcqueen's, gonna win.

423
00:18:52,998 --> 00:18:54,498
    Some things can't be bought.

424
00:18:54,567 --> 00:18:58,802
        Think again, sugar.
        Come along, mary cherry.

425
00:18:58,871 --> 00:18:59,937
           Bye, nic.

426
00:19:01,807 --> 00:19:03,807
Hope you and
Saltwater taffy win.

427
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:06,043
      You deserve to win.

428
00:19:18,624 --> 00:19:21,792
How do you feel
About a little campaigning?

429
00:19:46,185 --> 00:19:49,587
 Vote for me and win a new car.

430
00:19:49,655 --> 00:19:51,689
       Tell us succinctly
       And with no bull,

431
00:19:51,757 --> 00:19:54,157
    Why we should
    Vote for you for queen.

432
00:19:54,227 --> 00:19:57,461
Well, I think I would be

433
00:19:57,530 --> 00:20:00,164
A very good representative
Of the student body

434
00:20:00,233 --> 00:20:02,733
Because I'm, um... I'm caring

435
00:20:02,802 --> 00:20:04,835
And a real go-getter.

436
00:20:04,904 --> 00:20:06,570
And, um, if elected...

437
00:20:06,639 --> 00:20:08,272
                     If elected,

438
00:20:08,341 --> 00:20:10,408
             Carmen ferrara
             Will see to it that

439
00:20:10,476 --> 00:20:13,711
   The voices of the ignored and
   The alienated at kennedy high

440
00:20:13,779 --> 00:20:15,913
             Will be listened to
             And accepted.

441
00:20:15,981 --> 00:20:18,716
That's all great and all,
But cut to the chase.

442
00:20:18,784 --> 00:20:21,619
What's your new roomie,
Brooke mcqueen, look like nudie?

443
00:20:21,687 --> 00:20:23,754
Pervert! I love it!

444
00:20:23,823 --> 00:20:26,290
         [all laughing]

445
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,092
        So, why should
        We vote for you?

446
00:20:29,161 --> 00:20:31,161
    Well, you probably shouldn't
    'cause my daughter

447
00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:33,597
    Has treated you like freaks,
    Which you are.

448
00:20:33,666 --> 00:20:36,300
So to make amends,

449
00:20:36,369 --> 00:20:39,437
Here's $100 apiece.

450
00:20:41,006 --> 00:20:43,608
        April tuna, may, freddy.

451
00:20:43,676 --> 00:20:46,544
          Like you, tortured
          For being dirt eaters,

452
00:20:46,612 --> 00:20:49,279
          I also know
          The pain of prejudice.

453
00:20:51,183 --> 00:20:52,650
Girl, you eatin'
Kitty litter?

454
00:20:57,624 --> 00:20:59,990
Well, um,
The people that know me

455
00:21:00,059 --> 00:21:03,294
Would say that
I am a loyal person

456
00:21:03,363 --> 00:21:04,394
And hardworking.

457
00:21:04,463 --> 00:21:06,163
And...
  [freddy] A follow-up question:

458
00:21:06,231 --> 00:21:08,799
    While we're on the topic
    Of knowing people,

459
00:21:08,868 --> 00:21:10,134
    Brooke, what's my name?

460
00:21:12,438 --> 00:21:13,737
        It's not a joke.

461
00:21:15,374 --> 00:21:17,074
        What's my name?

462
00:21:18,978 --> 00:21:21,078
                 You don't know,
                 Do you?

463
00:21:21,146 --> 00:21:23,346
   I've passed you thousands
   Of times in the hall.

464
00:21:23,416 --> 00:21:27,017
  We've been in classes together
  Since the third grade.

465
00:21:27,086 --> 00:21:29,687
    You've never once
    Stopped to say hi to me

466
00:21:29,755 --> 00:21:31,355
              Or compromise your
Social status

467
00:21:31,424 --> 00:21:34,091
    By daring to acknowledge
    My existence.

468
00:21:36,061 --> 00:21:38,696
      How do you expect me
      To vote for you

469
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:41,031
      When you don't even
      Know I'm alive?

470
00:21:50,610 --> 00:21:51,875
[door opens]

471
00:21:53,679 --> 00:21:55,112
    Can I have some privacy?

472
00:21:55,180 --> 00:21:56,880
    Sam, what are you doing?

473
00:21:58,584 --> 00:22:01,018
   Luxuriating after
   A hard day of campaigning.

474
00:22:01,086 --> 00:22:04,287
   I've had a really bad day,
   And I need a bath.

475
00:22:04,357 --> 00:22:07,124
 Well, you're just
 Gonna have to wait, princess.

476
00:22:08,528 --> 00:22:10,394
             Okay.

477
00:22:10,463 --> 00:22:13,296
    I want you to get
    Out of my bathtub,

478
00:22:13,366 --> 00:22:15,399
Clean up your
Nasty soap scum ring,

479
00:22:15,468 --> 00:22:17,968
And give me some privacy now.

480
00:22:18,037 --> 00:22:20,137
             Sorry.

481
00:22:20,205 --> 00:22:22,072
    First come, first serve.

482
00:22:23,476 --> 00:22:26,076
    Why are you using
    My bath products? Okay?

483
00:22:26,145 --> 00:22:27,778
     And this is my towel.

484
00:22:27,847 --> 00:22:31,314
 Chill, selfish one.
 I'll wash them when I'm done.

485
00:22:31,384 --> 00:22:34,284
   There is not enough
   Disinfectant in the world

486
00:22:34,353 --> 00:22:35,953
       To shout you out.

487
00:22:37,690 --> 00:22:38,922
      What are you doing?

488
00:22:38,991 --> 00:22:41,726
Let's just face it and grow up.

489
00:22:41,794 --> 00:22:44,962
    You are not getting
    That sink... Ever.

490
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,498
And you must be having
The time of your life

491
00:22:48,568 --> 00:22:52,369
Living in my house,
    Using my stuff.

492
00:22:52,437 --> 00:22:54,371
   From where you come from,

493
00:22:54,439 --> 00:22:57,742
It's like moving into
A four star-hotel, huh, sammie?

494
00:22:57,810 --> 00:23:01,078
      It is and I love
      The spa privileges.

495
00:23:05,651 --> 00:23:06,817
       I'm shocked, sam.

496
00:23:06,886 --> 00:23:09,152
There's no
Negative campaigning,

497
00:23:09,221 --> 00:23:10,688
     No damning editorials
     About my candidacy.

498
00:23:10,757 --> 00:23:12,490
       Is this the calm
       Before the storm?

499
00:23:12,558 --> 00:23:14,792
    Nope. I've just
    Turned over a new leaf.

500
00:23:14,860 --> 00:23:16,994
              I don't need to be
              Bitter anymore.

501
00:23:17,062 --> 00:23:20,230
 By being positive and upbeat,
I am winning.

502
00:23:22,101 --> 00:23:23,501
                 Oh, by the way,

503
00:23:23,569 --> 00:23:25,803
         I heard about the chess
         Club debacle today.

504
00:23:25,871 --> 00:23:27,371
      Must be tough, huh?

505
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,973
    Feeling your throne
    Slipping away at school

506
00:23:30,042 --> 00:23:31,442
       And here at home.

507
00:23:39,719 --> 00:23:41,418
      She used your loofa?

508
00:23:41,486 --> 00:23:42,820
                            Yep.

509
00:23:42,889 --> 00:23:46,056
Just the thought of that
Makes my skin crawl.

510
00:23:46,125 --> 00:23:49,259
          Hey, at least it can't
          Get any worse. Right?

511
00:23:52,798 --> 00:23:54,832
[girl] Hey, vomit girl!

512
00:24:01,741 --> 00:24:03,240
                 Real nice, sam.

513
00:24:03,308 --> 00:24:05,809
        I was just waiting
For something like this.

514
00:24:05,878 --> 00:24:07,310
               Great. Excuse me.

515
00:24:09,048 --> 00:24:11,181
I'm gonna get you
For this.

516
00:24:11,250 --> 00:24:13,651
                Watch your back.

517
00:24:13,719 --> 00:24:14,785
                         Carmen.

518
00:24:14,854 --> 00:24:18,688
You just couldn't resist,
Could you, sam?

519
00:24:29,501 --> 00:24:33,003
Don't be so sad. It's not
Even that bad of a picture.

520
00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:34,437
Besides, flu or no flu,

521
00:24:34,507 --> 00:24:36,940
       You are still the foxiest
       Girl in this school.

522
00:24:37,009 --> 00:24:41,178
    But the poster's right.
    I don't know people's names.

523
00:24:41,246 --> 00:24:42,746
Stop using the plural.

524
00:24:42,815 --> 00:24:44,481
You didn't know
Freddy gong's name,

525
00:24:44,549 --> 00:24:46,484
And that's understandable
Because he's a loser.

526
00:24:46,552 --> 00:24:48,018
           No, he's not, nicole.

527
00:24:48,087 --> 00:24:49,720
    He's a person with feelings,

528
00:24:49,789 --> 00:24:52,389
     And I have been dissing him
     For ten years.

529
00:24:52,458 --> 00:24:54,324
You're losing it here
Because mcbitch mcpherson

530
00:24:54,393 --> 00:24:56,259
Put that poster up
Because she's jealous.

531
00:24:56,328 --> 00:24:57,394
That poster means nothing.

532
00:24:57,462 --> 00:24:59,329
           No, that poster
           Means everything.

533
00:24:59,398 --> 00:25:00,998
           That picture of me

534
00:25:01,066 --> 00:25:03,501
           Was a moment
           That I couldn't spin.

535
00:25:03,569 --> 00:25:07,404
      A picture of me
Up there looking horrible.

536
00:25:07,473 --> 00:25:09,807
              I mean, maybe that
              Is the first time

537
00:25:09,876 --> 00:25:12,876
      That anyone in this school
      Has seen me be real.

538
00:25:16,682 --> 00:25:18,782
    This race for queen
    Is bigger than friendship.

539
00:25:18,851 --> 00:25:20,951
   It's a chance
   To support a higher cause.

540
00:25:21,020 --> 00:25:24,354
   And, lily, higher causes
   Are what you are all about.

541
00:25:24,423 --> 00:25:27,357
    There is no minority student
    Union at this school,

542
00:25:27,426 --> 00:25:29,893
      And there is no minority
      On the student body board.

543
00:25:29,962 --> 00:25:32,596
    Maybe if we see
A face of color win queen...

544
00:25:32,665 --> 00:25:35,598
Maybe it'll show them
That despite everything,

545
00:25:35,667 --> 00:25:37,634
Minorities have a voice.

546
00:25:38,738 --> 00:25:40,838
               You know,
               I'm proud of you.

547
00:25:40,906 --> 00:25:43,941
       This whole queen thing
       Has focused you big time.

548
00:25:44,009 --> 00:25:45,008
             Yeah?

549
00:25:45,077 --> 00:25:46,810
                     Absolutely.
        Thanks.

550
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:49,512
              Hi.

551
00:25:49,581 --> 00:25:51,014
Hey.

552
00:25:51,083 --> 00:25:53,951
Um, sam, listen,
I think we need

553
00:25:54,019 --> 00:25:55,853
  To deal with
  The political fallout here.

554
00:25:55,921 --> 00:25:59,222
I really want to believe you
When you say you didn't put

555
00:25:59,291 --> 00:26:01,659
Those posters up,
But you've shown me the picture.

556
00:26:01,727 --> 00:26:03,293
We laughed about it.

557
00:26:03,362 --> 00:26:05,195
      Carmen, I told you,

558
00:26:05,264 --> 00:26:07,030
              I don't know
              How to explain it.

559
00:26:07,099 --> 00:26:09,466
     I had the picture,
     And now it's missing.

560
00:26:09,534 --> 00:26:12,335
    All right.
    I have no other choice.

561
00:26:12,404 --> 00:26:17,074
And I hate to do this. But you
Broke such a major promise.

562
00:26:18,811 --> 00:26:21,378
    Sam, you are fired
    As my campaign manager.

563
00:26:21,446 --> 00:26:23,546
             What?

564
00:26:23,616 --> 00:26:26,316
   Oh, come on. Harrison,
   You believe me, don't you?

565
00:26:31,624 --> 00:26:33,290
                    No.

566
00:26:54,313 --> 00:26:55,379
              Dad.

567
00:26:55,447 --> 00:26:57,414
Where did
           The water glasses go?

568
00:26:57,482 --> 00:27:01,284
Oh, I moved them to the cabinet
On the other side of the sink.

569
00:27:01,353 --> 00:27:03,186
                I thought they'd
                Be better there.

570
00:27:03,255 --> 00:27:06,523
I thought we reviewed
That the mugs... Never mind.

571
00:27:06,592 --> 00:27:09,259
       Come on, brooke, please.
       Do these posters with us.

572
00:27:09,328 --> 00:27:11,161
    I know you had a bad day,

573
00:27:11,230 --> 00:27:13,864
But we agreed this would be
A fun family project.

574
00:27:13,933 --> 00:27:17,034
We can't do that,
Because this isn't a fun family.

575
00:27:17,102 --> 00:27:18,869
  This is a family from hell.

576
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:21,671
              Hi.

577
00:27:25,711 --> 00:27:29,213
Okay, whatever. I swear
 I did not make those posters.

578
00:27:29,281 --> 00:27:32,182
  Sam, you were the only one
  With access to the picture.

579
00:27:32,251 --> 00:27:34,885
     Did you or did you not
     Bring it to school?

580
00:27:34,954 --> 00:27:36,353
          Yes, but...

581
00:27:36,421 --> 00:27:37,354
        "Yes, but" what?

582
00:27:37,422 --> 00:27:39,823
  Why are we even trying this?

583
00:27:39,892 --> 00:27:42,926
          This is never
          Going to work... Ever.

584
00:27:42,995 --> 00:27:45,262
   You two sit around talking

585
00:27:45,331 --> 00:27:47,898
  About cup arrangements
  For hours like crazy people.

586
00:27:47,967 --> 00:27:49,232
           And you...

587
00:27:49,301 --> 00:27:51,834
  Despite all of your high
  And mighty queenly behavior,

588
00:27:51,904 --> 00:27:54,404
You made the poster
       Because you couldn't help

589
00:27:54,473 --> 00:27:57,340
    Getting right back
    Down in the gutter
    Where you feel comfortable.

590
00:27:57,409 --> 00:27:59,309
      Is this a nightmare?

591
00:27:59,378 --> 00:28:01,111
It is.
I'm gonna wake up

592
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:04,114
And I'll be back at home safe
From the peroxide monster.

593
00:28:04,183 --> 00:28:05,482
  Both of you, that's enough.

594
00:28:05,550 --> 00:28:08,919
 Sam, go to your room
 And think about what you did.

595
00:28:08,988 --> 00:28:11,588
  When you admit to it, then
  We'll talk about punishment.

596
00:28:11,656 --> 00:28:12,956
       What? No. No, mom.

597
00:28:13,025 --> 00:28:15,993
     I'm not gonna go sit
     In the time-out chair.

598
00:28:16,061 --> 00:28:17,927
I haven't
Since I was five.

599
00:28:17,997 --> 00:28:19,997
      But I do have
      A solution for you.

600
00:28:20,065 --> 00:28:22,032
Excuse me while
I get my cool lamp.

601
00:28:22,101 --> 00:28:23,466
                            Why?

602
00:28:23,535 --> 00:28:27,504
I'm moving into the utility room
With the washer and the grime.

603
00:28:27,572 --> 00:28:30,107
You both have picked your
Princess of the manor.

604
00:28:30,175 --> 00:28:33,777
  You wanna treat me like
  Cinderella down in the dirty
  Cellar, go ahead.

605
00:28:33,846 --> 00:28:37,080
   I might as well get used
   To similar accommodations.

606
00:28:40,019 --> 00:28:41,919
     Are we having fun yet?

607
00:28:44,824 --> 00:28:46,623
                      [knocking]

608
00:29:23,562 --> 00:29:27,697
Remember, show me your "Mary
Cherry for queen" voting stub

609
00:29:27,766 --> 00:29:32,002
And you'll get registered
To win a brand-new car.

610
00:29:32,071 --> 00:29:34,104
Hi, joe.

611
00:29:34,173 --> 00:29:36,306
Show me your
"Mary cherry for queen..."

612
00:29:36,375 --> 00:29:39,609
Can I talk to you
For a second?

613
00:29:39,678 --> 00:29:40,710
                     Sure.

614
00:29:47,752 --> 00:29:49,886
      Brooke, I want you to know

615
00:29:49,955 --> 00:29:53,256
        That I didn't tell sam
        To put those posters up.

616
00:29:53,325 --> 00:29:54,724
I know.

617
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:56,259
        So, what are you saying?

618
00:29:56,328 --> 00:29:58,162
                That you're thin
                And omniscient?

619
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:05,035
You know, carmen,

620
00:30:05,104 --> 00:30:08,638
Out of all the people that are
Nominated, I hope you win.

621
00:30:08,707 --> 00:30:12,042
Thanks. But everybody knows
     You've got it sewn up.

622
00:30:12,111 --> 00:30:13,310
Not necessarily.

623
00:30:13,378 --> 00:30:16,646
I actually was on my way
To principal hall's office

624
00:30:16,715 --> 00:30:19,282
To withdraw my nomination.

625
00:30:19,351 --> 00:30:20,650
         Why? Brooke... Oh, god.

626
00:30:20,719 --> 00:30:24,321
        Please say that it's not
        Because of the posters.

627
00:30:24,389 --> 00:30:26,623
It's a bunch of things,
Actually.

628
00:30:26,691 --> 00:30:29,393
             Well, I'm not gonna
             Let you do it.

629
00:30:29,461 --> 00:30:32,295
           Look, I can't imagine
           What it must be like

630
00:30:32,364 --> 00:30:33,931
           To try to be perfect.

631
00:30:33,999 --> 00:30:36,266
            Okay, I used to try,

632
00:30:36,335 --> 00:30:39,336
But lately, I've realized
   I like being a little flawed.

633
00:30:39,405 --> 00:30:41,171
          I do. It's more me.

634
00:30:42,907 --> 00:30:44,574
            I've realized
            That being unperfect

635
00:30:44,643 --> 00:30:47,777
   Doesn't mean that I don't
   Deserve a chance to be queen.

636
00:30:47,847 --> 00:30:49,579
           I think everybody
           Deserves a moment

637
00:30:49,648 --> 00:30:51,614
      To wear that golden crown.

638
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:56,919
           So what if people
           Saw those posters?

639
00:30:56,988 --> 00:30:58,855
         And so what if you feel

640
00:30:58,923 --> 00:31:01,124
         Momentarily awkward
         And gross in your life?

641
00:31:01,193 --> 00:31:04,461
You've had to have a couple
     Of moments of loserdom.

642
00:31:04,529 --> 00:31:07,464
      God knows, before now,
      I've had a lifetime of it,

643
00:31:07,532 --> 00:31:11,268
     But I'm still going for it,
     And you should, too.

644
00:31:11,336 --> 00:31:14,504
 Don't let these recent setbacks
 Stand in your way

645
00:31:14,573 --> 00:31:17,440
  Of your right to feel special.

646
00:31:17,509 --> 00:31:19,109
               'cause if you do,

647
00:31:19,178 --> 00:31:21,344
              Then you're saying
              To people like me,

648
00:31:21,413 --> 00:31:23,780
      Who put up with far worse,

649
00:31:23,848 --> 00:31:26,549
           That I'm not entitled
           To wear that crown.

650
00:31:26,618 --> 00:31:29,319
  And, brooke,
I'd like to think that I am.

651
00:31:34,826 --> 00:31:36,393
Ooh. It's gonna be close.

652
00:31:38,029 --> 00:31:40,563
Here, spoilsport.
You only get one vote.

653
00:31:40,632 --> 00:31:43,800
Don't try to be crafty.
We know your history.

<I> it's kennedy 14, nixon high 3.</I>

655
00:32:56,441 --> 00:32:57,374
           Excuse me.

656
00:32:57,442 --> 00:32:58,375
    Hi.
            Hi.

657
00:32:58,443 --> 00:33:01,278
Hi. I'm, uh,
Cherry cherry.

            Mike.
Mike, how do you do?

659
00:33:03,582 --> 00:33:04,781
      This is jane.
                      Hi.

660
00:33:04,849 --> 00:33:05,882
    Hi.

661
00:33:05,950 --> 00:33:08,618
          [lily] Dear god,
          Please let carmen win.

662
00:33:08,687 --> 00:33:10,219
Please let her win

663
00:33:10,289 --> 00:33:14,056
      And prove that there's
      Some justice in the world.

664
00:33:14,125 --> 00:33:15,825
                       Or poppy.

665
00:33:15,894 --> 00:33:19,796
             A win for poppy
             Would be cool, too.

666
00:33:19,865 --> 00:33:23,333
Well, I'd be happy to be
Represented by either.

667
00:33:23,402 --> 00:33:25,402
They both got flava.

668
00:33:25,471 --> 00:33:27,003
               Right on, sister.

669
00:33:28,573 --> 00:33:30,206
Your baby girl
Nominated for queen?

670
00:33:30,275 --> 00:33:31,341
             [jane] Yes, she is.

671
00:33:31,410 --> 00:33:33,043
                 Well, actually,
                 No, she's not.

672
00:33:33,112 --> 00:33:34,877
          She's not my daughter.

673
00:33:34,946 --> 00:33:36,713
    Yes, she is.

674
00:33:38,984 --> 00:33:40,250
Is your girl
                    Nominated?

675
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:42,685
    She sure as shootin' is.
    It's a family tradition.

676
00:33:42,754 --> 00:33:46,255
     Yeah, it's kind of a family
     Tradition for us, too.

677
00:33:46,325 --> 00:33:49,126
Except that one of our daughters
Didn't want to come.

What do you think of my outfit?

  Of this year's kennedy high
  Homecoming queen is...

710
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,006
I know what
                You're thinking.

711
00:36:17,075 --> 00:36:19,176
                This is the part
                Where I win.

712
00:36:19,244 --> 00:36:21,077
                         Right.

        Brooke mcqueen.

714
00:36:39,664 --> 00:36:40,664
              Yes!

715
00:36:40,732 --> 00:36:42,599
                    Daddy!
I'm so proud of you.

716
00:36:57,516 --> 00:36:59,816
           Good for you, brooky.
           I voted for ya.

717
00:37:04,756 --> 00:37:07,724
                 Ooh, how'd that
                 Get in there?

718
00:37:27,245 --> 00:37:28,912
    Hi.

719
00:37:30,582 --> 00:37:33,883
Sorry I haven't been by
To see you in a while.

720
00:37:33,952 --> 00:37:37,454
It's just hard for me to imagine
You down there all alone.

721
00:37:39,190 --> 00:37:41,924
Lately, that's how
I've been feeling, too.

722
00:37:44,996 --> 00:37:47,697
    Dad, I miss you so much.

723
00:37:49,133 --> 00:37:52,034
       I sort of ache
       Over it every day.

724
00:37:54,539 --> 00:37:59,175
 And I think you wouldn't like
 The person I've become.

725
00:37:59,243 --> 00:38:01,343
   So I've gotta change that.

726
00:38:03,314 --> 00:38:05,915
     As you know,
     I'm in a situation now

727
00:38:05,984 --> 00:38:08,217
    That's really
    Unpleasant and heinous.

728
00:38:11,523 --> 00:38:14,724
    I just feel like
    I'm failing everybody.

729
00:38:16,194 --> 00:38:18,295
    Myself, mom, you.

730
00:38:19,363 --> 00:38:20,997
        Especially you.

731
00:38:22,301 --> 00:38:26,235
In my heart, I know
You'd want mom to be happy.

732
00:38:26,305 --> 00:38:29,438
And she is trying so hard,

733
00:38:29,508 --> 00:38:32,375
    And I just keep
    Screwing it up for her.

734
00:38:36,014 --> 00:38:38,314
      I think I really
      Never said good-bye,

735
00:38:38,383 --> 00:38:41,784
    And that's why
    I'm holding on so tight.

736
00:38:41,853 --> 00:38:45,121
   So I'm here to tell you...

737
00:38:45,189 --> 00:38:48,625
That you were the best dad ever.

738
00:38:50,161 --> 00:38:52,261
 You and mom, you were my home.

739
00:38:55,534 --> 00:38:58,501
  But I've got a new home now.

740
00:38:58,570 --> 00:39:02,038
     And somehow I've gotta
     Make that work.

741
00:39:04,275 --> 00:39:08,478
  But don't worry.
  This isn't a final good-bye.

742
00:39:08,547 --> 00:39:13,082
  Every time I go to
  A ball game or write a story

743
00:39:13,151 --> 00:39:15,919
     Or do something brave,

744
00:39:15,987 --> 00:39:18,120
I know you'll be there.

745
00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:20,923
       Right by my side.

746
00:39:32,136 --> 00:39:33,602
      I talk to him, too.

747
00:39:36,340 --> 00:39:39,108
        Lately, a lot about you.

748
00:39:41,379 --> 00:39:42,779
      About the picture thing...

749
00:39:42,848 --> 00:39:45,748
     If I doubled your allowance
     For the next six months,

750
00:39:45,817 --> 00:39:47,349
                Could we pretend

751
00:39:47,418 --> 00:39:50,319
      That that was just a lapse
      Of judgment on my part

752
00:39:50,388 --> 00:39:53,155
         And not a black mark
         On my permanent record?

753
00:39:53,224 --> 00:39:55,491
             Deal.

754
00:39:59,998 --> 00:40:01,964
Bet he's just
Dust now, huh?

755
00:40:02,033 --> 00:40:04,333
        Oh. Yeah.

756
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:05,835
        And memories.

757
00:40:08,439 --> 00:40:10,840
     I'm ready to go home.

758
00:40:28,159 --> 00:40:29,458
[door opens]
                         Mm-hmm.

759
00:40:29,527 --> 00:40:32,361
            Mm-hmm. Okay, okay.
            Love you, too, girl.

760
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:34,230
             Now, lay off
             That fried chicken.

761
00:40:34,298 --> 00:40:35,965
                  Okay, bye-bye.

762
00:40:38,002 --> 00:40:41,603
Sorry I didn't win homecoming
Queen and make you proud, mama.

763
00:40:41,672 --> 00:40:43,472
     Well, those are the breaks,
     Sugar booger.

764
00:40:43,541 --> 00:40:45,842
             They always give it
             To a pretty girl.

765
00:40:45,910 --> 00:40:48,544
   You know, mary cherry,
   I lost my first pageant, too.

766
00:40:50,048 --> 00:40:51,781
Mama, how could that be?

767
00:40:51,850 --> 00:40:54,817
The judges were nuts is the only
Way I can explain it.

768
00:40:54,886 --> 00:40:57,119
    Guess what I did
    When I lost that crown.

769
00:40:57,188 --> 00:40:59,355
    Shot 'em, mama?

770
00:41:00,959 --> 00:41:03,526
       I went out
       And I bought myself this.

771
00:41:03,595 --> 00:41:05,795
           I said to myself,
           "Cherry cherry, hell.

772
00:41:05,864 --> 00:41:08,631
  "Practice holdin' your head up
  High and not trippin', girl.

773
00:41:08,700 --> 00:41:11,133
       That's the attitude
       You need to win at life."

774
00:41:11,202 --> 00:41:15,304
Mama, you brought
Your crown here just for me?

775
00:41:15,373 --> 00:41:17,206
       Yeah. I figured
       You'd be a loser.

776
00:41:19,477 --> 00:41:21,077
    Oh, mama.

777

[door opens]

778
00:41:33,024 --> 00:41:35,324
Does it make you
Feel any different

779
00:41:35,393 --> 00:41:37,359
When you win homecoming queen?

780
00:41:38,663 --> 00:41:41,865
    Actually, yeah. It does.

781
00:41:41,933 --> 00:41:44,600
       Even if it's only
       For like a moment.

782
00:41:44,669 --> 00:41:45,602
          But... Yeah.

783
00:41:47,939 --> 00:41:50,339
     Gonna wear that crown
     To bed, aren't you?

784
00:41:50,408 --> 00:41:55,411
     Actually, I wore this crown
     In here to give to you...

785
00:41:55,479 --> 00:41:57,413
         So you could try it on.

786
00:41:57,481 --> 00:41:59,281
And the reason
For that would be?

787
00:41:59,350 --> 00:42:01,017
    Okay, look,
    This arrangement sucks.

788
00:42:01,085 --> 00:42:03,252
   I hate having you in my hair.

789
00:42:03,321 --> 00:42:07,757
        And... I know you hate
Having me in yours, too.

790
00:42:09,693 --> 00:42:12,829
Did they not know that people
Our age need their space?

791
00:42:12,897 --> 00:42:14,096
                  Totally.

792
00:42:14,165 --> 00:42:17,266
          The only way we're not
          Gonna kill each other

793
00:42:17,335 --> 00:42:19,536
              Is, um, I think...

794
00:42:19,604 --> 00:42:22,539
  We both get used to wearing
  The crown around here.

795
00:42:22,607 --> 00:42:24,073
         And the sink?
                             Oh.

796
00:42:24,142 --> 00:42:26,843
   By now it's the principle
   Of the matter, isn't it?

797
00:42:26,911 --> 00:42:28,444
                 Yeah.

798
00:42:28,512 --> 00:42:31,447
So, what I thought
We could do is,

799
00:42:31,515 --> 00:42:33,249
Each friday night
We'll flip for it,

800
00:42:33,317 --> 00:42:35,317
And the winner
Will get it that week.

801
00:42:35,386 --> 00:42:37,486
                  Hmm.

802
00:42:37,555 --> 00:42:38,955
                  Okay. Call it.

804
00:42:44,228 --> 00:42:45,561
              Okay, fine.

805
00:42:45,629 --> 00:42:48,464
       I'll move my stuff over
       To the bad sink tomorrow.
