WOW, DAD. I AM IMPRESSED.

YOU DID A GREAT JOB FIXING UP THAT BASEMENT.

YOU SURE YOU'RE GONNA BE OKAY DOWN THERE BY YOURSELF?

I'M A BIG BOY. I'LL BE FINE.

I THINK RORY MIGHT MISS ME SLEEPING IN HIS ROOM...

YOU KNOW, OUR LITTLE MIDNIGHT CHATS.

OKAY, GRAMPS, HERE'S THE REST OF YOUR CRAP.

THANK GOD I CAN SLEEP AGAIN.

GRANDMA EVER TELL YOU YOU SNORE LIKE AN ELEPHANT?

HE HAS MAGAZINES, CATE.

GRANDPA!

MOM, C.J.'S STILL IN THE SHOWER. IT'S BEEN 45 MINUTES.

HE'S USING UP ALL THE HOT WATER.

YEAH, NOW WE HAVE TWO BLONDES IN THIS HOUSE WHO THINK THEY OWN THE BATHROOM.

GREAT. I HAVEN'T HAD MY SHOWER, AND I LIKE MY SHOWER.

YEAH, I LIKE MY SHOWER TOO.

OH, WE KNOW YOU DO.

MOTHER, YOU HAVE GOT TO DO SOMETHING.

JEREMY IS TUTORING ME TODAY. I STILL HAVE TO DO MY HAIR, MY MAKE-UP,

PRACTICE MY BRAINY POSE IN THE MIRROR...

I MEAN, IT IS JUST SO MUCH WORK BEING SMART.

YOU SO LIKE HIM.

JEREMY? I DO NOT.

HE'S MY FRIEND, HE'S MY TUTOR, HE'S...

HE'S YOUR BOYFRIEND AND YOU LOOOVE HIM!

YEAH, YOU LOOOOVE HIM!

HOW DO YOU KNOW IT IS JUST NOT MY LOVE OF KNOWLEDGE?

OKAY, FINE, I LIKE A GEEK.

GEE, I... I SMELL SMOKE.

DAD?

WELL, DON'T LOOK AT ME.

I'M NOT ALLOWED TO SMOKE INDOORS.

NO NO, I HAVE TO SMOKE OUTSIDE

IN THE FREEZING, BITTER MICHIGAN WINTER.

IT DOESN'T SMELL LIKE CIGARETTES.

IT SMELLS LIKE... C.J.'S VAN! IT'S ON FIRE!

SOMETIMES I SMOKE IN C.J.'S VAN.

OH! SOMEBODY CALL 911.

CALL 911!

OH, AND SOMEBODY TELL C.J.

All: I WANT TO TELL HIM! NO, YOU TELL HIM!

YOU'RE ALL IN FOR A TREAT!

IN A FEW MINUTES, MY HAIR WILL BE EXTRA BOUNCY AND MANAGEABLE.

C.J... C.J., YOUR VAN IS ON FIRE.

MY BABY!

YOU KNOW, BRIDGET, THIS IS REALLY GOOD.

SHUT UP!

NO, I'M SURE IT'S AN A.

I DON'T THINK YOU NEED ME ANYMORE.

OH OH! SHE NEEDS YOU.

I NEED YOU FOR TUTORING.

SEE, NEXT WEEK I HAVE TO DEBATE LACEY IN SPEECH CLASS.

OOH, LACEY.

SHE'S CAPTAIN OF THE DEBATE TEAM.

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN BAD IN A PRIOR LIFE.

OH, SHE WAS. SHE WAS VERY VERY NAUGHTY.

WHO'S THE HOMELESS GUY?

HEY, I'D BE REALLY INSULTED BY THAT IF I HAD A HOME.

JUST IGNORE HIM. HE'S OUR LAZY COUSIN.

- HE LIVES ON THE COUCH. - OH.

WELL, YOUR HOUR'S UP. GUESS I'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

OOH, IF I HAD A DOLLAR FOR EVERY TIME I HEARD THAT ONE.

OKAY, WELL THEN WE'LL DO THIS LATER.

HOW ABOUT SATURDAY NIGHT?

I CAN'T. I'M GOING TO A PARTY.

YOU'RE GOING TO A PARTY... WITH GIRLS?

NO, SEE, IT'S A NERD PARTY SO WE FLIP A COIN

AND HALF OF US SHOW UP DRESSED AS GIRLS.

YES, THERE ARE GONNA BE GIRLS THERE.

HOT GIRLS?

YOU ASK TOO MANY QUESTIONS.

BYE.

BYE!

OH, YOU GOT SHOT DOWN SO HARD. I LOVE IT.

HI, AUNT CATE... RORY, GRAND-PYRO.

SO, C.J., WERE YOU JUST PLANNING

ON SLEEPING ON THE COUCH ALL DAY?

MAYBE IF I COULD GET SOME QUIET AROUND HERE.

PLEASE TELL ME YOU'RE WEARING SOMETHING UNDER THERE.

NOW LOOK, YOU CANNOT JUST MOVE INTO MY LIVING ROOM.

I ACTUALLY HAVE PEOPLE COMING OVER TONIGHT.

OOH. LOUD PEOPLE?

NOBODY RAN THAT BY ME.

JUST LOOK AT HIM. LOOK AT HIM... HE'S TAKEN OVER THE WHOLE LIVING ROOM.

WELL, THAT'S BECAUSE THAT VAN YOU BURNED DOWN WAS HIS HOME.

WELL, IF YOU'D LET ME SMOKE INSIDE,

IT NEVER WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.

YEAH, NOW THERE'S LOGIC. YOU SOUND LIKE BRIDGET.

WHATEVER!

CATE, THIS IS YOUR HOUSE.

TAKE CHARGE. SET SOME RULES. GO ON.

OKAY.

C.J.?

I WANT YOU TO MOVE INTO YOUR GRANDFATHER'S ROOM.

HEY, KERR? I NEED A FAVOR.

JEREMY'S GOING TO SOME GEEK PARTY. I NEED YOU TO GET ME IN.

WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?

HOW DARE YOU? WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT...

CAN YOU GET ME IN OR NOT?

YEAH, I CAN GET YOU IN.

OKAY, BUT THEY'RE NOT GEEKS, THEY'RE ACADEMICS.

OKAY, WHATEVER, I'M NOT AN ACADEMIC

AND I DON'T WANT TO STAND OUT, SO IS THERE ANYTHING I NEED TO KNOW?

HISTORY, POETRY, PHILOSOPHY, ADDITION.

AND IF YOU HAVE TO SPEAK, DON'T SAY "TOTALLY"

AND "SO" AND "OH MY GOD."

OKAY, I CAN SO DO THAT.

I TOTALLY JUST SAID "SO."

AND "TOTALLY"! OH MY GOD!

HEY, GRANDPA, I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND... I USED YOUR TOOTHBRUSH.

YOU DID WHAT?

YEAH, MINE WAS IN MY VAN

WITH THE REST OF MY STUFF.

THE VAN WAS A FIRE TRAP.

YEAH, THIS FROM A GUY WHO WAS AROUND

WHEN FIRE WAS INVENTED.

Cate: HEY, KNOCK IT OFF, YOU TWO.

DON'T MAKE ME COME DOWN THERE.

Both: OKAY. FINE.

- ALL RIGHT, SCOOCH. - WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?

I'M GOING TO BED.

NOT HERE, YOU'RE NOT.

IT'S OKAY, GRANDPA. I'M WEARING UNDERPANTS THIS TIME.

WELL, I'M NOT.

YOU'RE BLUFFING.

YOU SURE THAT'S A CHANCE YOU WANT TO TAKE?

YOU THINK YOU CAN SCARE ME OFF WITH... HO!

COME ON, I'M WEARING PAJAMAS, YOU WIMP.

THE FLAP!

SORRY.

HEY, DON'T YOU HAVE A SLEEPING BAG OR...

OH, YEAH, I DID,

BUT APPARENTLY WHEN VIEWED THROUGH 200-YEAR-OLD EYEBALLS

IT LOOKS LIKE AN ASHTRAY.

YOU PIPE DOWN WITH THE OLD-GUY JOKES.

I'M NOT SO OLD I CAN'T KICK YOUR BUTT.

LIKE YOU COULD EVER CATCH ME. YOU MOVE AT THE SPEED OF MOSS.

ALWAYS WITH THE CANE! PUT THE CANE DOWN AND WE'LL GO AT IT!

OKAY, WHAT IS GOING ON?

- IT'S BEDTIME. - HE STARTED IT.

HE STARTED IT.

CATE, THIS IS JUST NOT GONNA WORK OUT.

YOU GUYS, I'M AT MY WIT'S END.

I AM A SINGLE MOM AND I JUST REALIZED I HAVE FIVE KIDS.

THE THREE GOOD ONES ARE ASLEEP.

RELAX. THIS IS STRICTLY SHORT-TERM.

MY GIRLFRIEND SABRINA JUST GOT OUT OF THE SERVICE.

SABRINA? YOU... YOU NEVER MENTIONED YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND.

OH, YEAH. SHE'S GONNA COME HERE AND PICK ME UP.

WE'RE GONNA GO TO CALIFORN-I-A:

SUN, FUN AND MARGARITAS. WHOO HOO!

SEE, DAD? HE WON'T EVEN BE HERE THAT MUCH LONGER.

CAN'T YOU JUST PUT ASIDE YOUR DIFFERENCES FOR A FEW DAYS?

YEAH. OR WOULD THAT RUIN YOUR PLANS TO SMOTHER ME IN MY SLEEP?

IT'S NOT LIKE I HAD THE PILLOW PICKED OUT.

SHE'S HERE. SHE'S HERE!

NO.

DAD, NOT EVERY CAR IS GONNA BE C.J.'S GIRLFRIEND.

IT ONLY TAKES ONE TO GET HIS BUTT TO CALIFORNIA.

KERRY, I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT THIS PARTY.

IS EVERYONE THERE GONNA BE SMART?

WELL, LET'S SEE: THERE'LL BE LACEY, JEREMY, ME. I'M GONNA BRING KYLE...

OH, KYLE... THANK GOD.

YOU KNOW, BRIDGET. I AM REALLY IMPRESSED

THAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO A GEEK...

ACADEMIC PARTY.

YOU KNOW, IT JUST SHOWS A LOT OF GROWTH IN YOU.

YOU KNOW ACTUALLY, I MET YOUR DAD AT A GEEK...

ACADEMIC PARTY.

- REALLY? - YEAH.

YOU KNOW, I USED TO ONLY GO OUT WITH MUSICIANS AND BAD BOYS.

AND THEN ONE NIGHT MY ROOMMATE TOOK ME TO THIS PARTY

THAT WAS BEING THROWN BY THIS TOTAL BUNCH OF WRITER GEE...

GEEK, MOM! GO AHEAD AND SAY "GEEK."

NEVER MIND. JUST HAVE A GOOD TIME.

THAT'S YOU! YOU'RE HERE.

YOU MADE IT.

THAT'S HER. SHE'S HERE. SHE MADE IT.

ALL RIGHT, LOVE MONKEY, HERE I COME!

OH. SHE'S ACTUALLY HOT.

WOW, LOOK, THEY'RE HUGGING.

I'VE NEVER SEEN C.J. SO HAPPY.

WAIT, SHE JUST PUSHED HIM TO THE GROUND.

WITH EASE.

NO NO NO! KISS AND MAKE UP.

TAKE HIM TO CALIFORNIA.

NOW SHE'S HEADING BACK TO THE CAR...

WITH HIM ON HER LEG. SHE'S ACTUALLY DRAGGING HIM.

WITH EASE.

AND GOODBYE, LOVE MONKEY.

SEE, BRIDGE, THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE.

WE DON'T JUST SOLVE EQUATIONS AND DISCUSS WORLD POLITICS.

WE'RE JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE.

WE CAN PARTY HARD.

DESCARTES! RENE DESCARTES!

NO, JOHN STUART MILL!

KERRY, I JUST FEEL LIKE I STICK OUT.

I DON'T KNOW ANYBODY HERE.

I DO.

I THINK I'VE STUFFED EVERY GUY HERE IN A LOCKER.

JEREMY! AH, CRAZY!

WE'RE BOTH AT THE SAME PARTY AT THE SAME TIME.

WHAT A COINCIDENCE.

BRIDGET, THIS ISN'T REALLY YOUR SCENE.

OH, WHO'S TO SAY WHAT SCENE BELONGS TO...

WHOM.

"WHOM" IS RIGHT.

SO ARE YOU HAVING A GOOD TIME?

OH MY GOD, YES! THIS IS SO TOTALLY...

WHOM.

I CAN'T STAND TO SEE A GROWN MAN CRY.

WHY DON'T YOU GET OUT OF HERE?

MAKE THE PAIN GO AWAY, POPPY.

CATE?

YEAH?

MAKE THE PAIN GO AWAY.

UH... C.J.?

TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

I DON'T WANT RORY TO SEE ME LIKE THIS.

NO, I'M COOL.

WELL, APPARENTLY HER THERAPIST,

WHO SHE'S PROBABLY SLEEPING WITH,

TOLD HER SHE NEEDS TO SEE ME FACE TO FACE TO END IT

FOR CLOSURE. GLAD SHE'S HEALED... DEVIL WOMAN!

SO WHY'D SHE DUMP YOUR ASS?

RORY! OUT.

GO ON.

SORRY, C.J.

BUT, YOU KNOW, SINCE HE ASKED.

SABRINA THINKS I'M KINDA SORTA AIMLESS.

YEAH, RIGHT?

WITH NO ROOTS OR FUTURE, LIKE SHE KNOWS.

AND OTHER BLIPPITY-BLAB.

OH, YEAH, SHE'S MARRIED.

C.J.?

WELL, SHE GOT MARRIED BECAUSE OF THE OTHER STUFF.

YOU KNOW, MAYBE YOU SHOULD ENTERTAIN THE REMOTE POSSIBILITY

THAT SHE'S ONTO SOMETHING.

YEAH, YOU ARE AIMLESS.

YOU'RE LIVING WITH YOUR GRANDFATHER IN A BASEMENT.

WHAT KIND OF FUTURE IS THAT?

GLASS HOUSES, COCHISE.

YOU KNOW, C.J., MAYBE THIS ISN'T A BAD THING.

MAYBE THIS IS A CHANCE FOR YOU TO START OVER.

YOU KNOW, YOUR UNCLE PAUL

ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU HAD A LOT OF POTENTIAL.

REALLY?

YES.

C.J., YOU'RE AN ADULT.

IT'S TIME TO START THINKING SERIOUSLY ABOUT BECOMING INDEPENDENT.

FIND A JOB, A CAREER;

GO TO COLLEGE.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A BIG WIDE WORLD OUT THERE.

JUST SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND FLY... AWAY.

FAR FAR AWAY.

BRIDGET, CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING?

CAN YOU ASK ME SOMETHING?

YES. MAY YOU ASK ME SOMETHING?

I DON'T KNOW.

NO, I CAN'T ASK YOU THIS.

OH, COME ON, YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY:

NOTHING VENTURED IS NOTHING...

SOMETHING. JUST ASK ME.

ALL RIGHT. HERE IT GOES:

SO SAY THERE'S THIS GUY,

AND HE WANTS TO ASK OUT THIS REALLY CUTE GIRL,

BUT HE'S AFRAID BECAUSE SHE MIGHT SAY NO.

WELL,

I THINK THAT THAT GUY SHOULD TAKE THE CHANCE

ON ASKING OUT THAT BEAUTIFUL GIRL,

BECAUSE I HAVE A FEELING THE ANSWER'S GONNA BE A BIG FAT YES.

REALLY?

YES, TRUST ME.

ALL RIGHT.

I'M GONNA DO IT.

HEY, LACEY, YOU WANT TO GO OUT SOMETIME?

WAIT, WHAT?

SURE.

- WAIT, DO YOU LIKE PONIES? - UH...

AND DON'T JUST SAY YES SO YOU CAN GET WITH THIS.

OKAY.

HONEY, IT'S REALLY GREAT TO SEE YOU TAKE SUCH AN INTEREST IN YOUR STUDIES.

WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT?

OH, WHAT'S IT ABOUT? YEAH YEAH, I'LL TELL YOU WHAT IT'S ABOUT, MISSY.

IT IS ABOUT ME WINNING JEREMY

AND HUMILIATING LACEY SO MUCH

THAT SHE CAN'T SHOW HER FACE ANYMORE AND HAS TO MOVE TO, LIKE,

THE NORTHERN TERRITORIES TO LIVE WITH THE BEARS

UNTIL ONE DAY SHE STARTS RIDING THAT BEAR LIKE A PONY

AND IT TURNS AROUND BECAUSE IT'S SO MAD IT EATS HER.

AND BECAUSE HE ATE SO MUCH OF HER, HIS FACE STARTS TO LOOK LIKE LACEY

AND ALL THE OTHER BEARS GO, "HA, YOUR FACE LOOKS LIKE LACEY!"

I MEANT, WHAT'S THE DEBATE ABOUT?

OH... HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.

HEY, DAD, WHERE YOU BEEN?

JOGGING.

GEE, YOU'RE IN A GOOD MOOD.

I COULDN'T SLEEP LAST NIGHT.

C.J. KEPT WAKING ME UP EVERY TIME I STARTED SNORING

TO SAY, "GRANDPA, YOU'RE SNORING AGAIN."

THEN WHEN I WASN'T SNORING, HE HAD TO WAKE ME UP

AND SAY, "SORRY, I THOUGHT YOU CROAKED."

NOW LOOK, DAD, I KNOW THAT C.J. IS CRAMPING ALL OUR STYLE.

DAMN RIGHT HE IS. AND HE'LL STAY HERE AS LONG AS YOU LET HIM.

HE'S GONNA WALK ALL OVER YOU.

NO, HE'S NOT. C.J.'S GONNA GET HIS ACT TOGETHER

IF WE JUST BELIEVE IN HIM.

COME ON, HE'S FAMILY.

MAYBE HE'S NOT.

WE COULD DO A D.N.A. TEST.

NOW DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT.

YOU'RE A NURSE; GIVE SCIENCE A CHANCE.

HEY, GUYS, I GOT GREAT NEWS.

- YOUR GIRLFRIEND TOOK YOU BACK? - NO.

- THEY LET YOU BACK IN THE ARMY? - NO.

- YOU GOT YOUR VAN FIXED. - I KNOW THE NEWS.

HOW ABOUT I'LL TELL THE NEWS? OKAY?

I TOOK AUNT CATE'S ADVICE

AND I HAVE ENROLLED AND BEEN ACCEPTED INTO COLLEGE.

OH, YES, AN INSTITUTION OF HIGHER LEARNING.

OKAY, DO YOU MEAN COLLEGE OR AN INSTITUTION?

BECAUSE THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE.

WELL, CHECK THIS OUT, CARROT TOP:

THIS IS MY FIRST SYLLABUS.

IT'S A FUN WORD, ISN'T IT? SYLLABUS.

SYLLABUS... LA LA LA LAA... LUS.

YOU KNOW, C.J., THAT IS GREAT.

YOU ARE GOING AWAY TO COLLEGE.

CONGRATULATIONS. WE ARE SO PROUD.

SO... SO HOW FAR AWAY?

IT'S CALLED GEORGE ROMNEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

COMMUNITY COLLEGE?

YEAH.

I'M TAKING INTRO TO ASTROPHYSICS

AND LEATHERWORKS.

GEORGE ROMNEY? WHY DOES THAT SOUND FAMILIAR?

IT'S NEXT TO THE GAS N' SIP YOU LIMP UP TO

WHEN YOU WANT TO BUY CIGARETTES TO BURN DOWN VANS.

YEAH, IT'S DOWN THE STREET.

YOU ARE GOING TO COLLEGE DOWN THE STREET?

- YEAH, ISN'T THAT CONVENIENT? - FOR YOU.

IS THIS YOUR IDEA OF BEING INDEPENDENT?

YOU'RE GONNA LIVE IN MY BASEMENT

WHILE YOU GO TO COMMUNITY COLLEGE TILL YOU GRADUATE?

A TWO-YEAR COLLEGE.

THAT SHOULD TAKE YOU WHAT? ABOUT SIX YEARS TO COMPLETE?

YEAH, ABOUT.

C.J., I STOOD UP FOR YOU.

NOW I FEEL LIKE YOU ARE WALKING ALL OVER US.

AND IF YOU THINK THAT YOU'RE GOING TO LIVE HERE FOREVER FOR FREE,

YOU ARE COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR MIND.

DID I FORGET TO MENTION THAT I'M LIVING IN STUDENT HOUSING?

YES.

YES, YOU DID.

AND... AND THAT'S TERRIFIC, C.J.

DAD, DID YOU HEAR ABOUT C.J.?

SO IN CONCLUSION,

OUR ENTIRE SOCIETY IS BASED ON TRUST.

THEREFORE HONESTY IS ALWAYS THE BEST POLICY... NO LIE.

THANK YOU.

Teacher: VERY NICE, BRIDGET.

AND NOW WE'LL HEAR FROM LACEY.

I OFFER ONE FINAL EXAMPLE:

DURING WORLD WAR II,

MANY PEOPLE LIED TO THE GESTAPO WHEN ASKED

WHETHER OR NOT THEY WERE HIDING JEWS.

THOSE WHO LIED SAVED INNOCENT PEOPLE.

WHAT BETTER EXAMPLE TO SUPPORT MY POSITION

THAT HONESTY IS NOT ALWAYS, AS IN PERMANENT,

INFINITE, ABSOLUTE, THE BEST POLICY.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, LACEY.

AND NOW BRIDGET'S REBUTTAL.

OKAY. YEAH.

OKAY, WELL,

LACEY OVER HERE HAS MADE SOME... SOME GREAT POINTS...

MY ESTEEMED OPPONENT.

BUT... HOWEVER, UM, THAT, UM... YEAH YEAH.

THAT... OH, THAT THING I SAID ABOUT THE SOCIETY: TRUE.

AND, UM, YES, VERY TRUE. OH, HONESTY!

HONESTY! THIS IS... HONESTY.

THE OTHER DAY I HAD LIPSTICK ON MY TEETH

AND TALIA TOLD ME. EVEN THOUGH SHE DIDN'T REALLY SAVE MY LIFE,

IF I WOULD HAVE GONE OUT WITH LIPSTICK ON MY TEETH,

I WOULD HAVE TOTALLY DIED, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

THANK YOU.

LACEY, YOUR REBUTTAL?

I'M GOOD.

ALL RIGHT, CLASS. WE'LL PICK IT UP FROM HERE TOMORROW.

HEY, NICE JOB.

YEAH, RIGHT. TOTALLY EMBARRASSED MYSELF.

YOU DID NOT.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT AS THOUGH YOU HAVE LIPSTICK ON YOUR TEETH.

THAT'S NOT FUNNY, OKAY?

I'M HUMILIATED.

JUST LEAVE ME ALONE. GO CONGRATULATE YOUR GIRLFRIEND.

WHAT ARE YOU SO MAD AT ME FOR?

I'M NOT MAD AT YOU!

SHE HISSED.

YOU KNOW, YOU JUST... YOU JUST THINK YOU'RE SO SMART

WITH YOUR STRAIGHT As. AND I GO TO YOUR ACADEMIC PARTIES

AND I TRY AND BE NOTICED BY YOU

AND IT'S LIKE "BUY A VOWEL" ALREADY.

AND YOU HAVE TO... YOU'VE GOT TO BE THE DUMBEST SMART GUY I'VE EVER SEEN

IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. AND IT JUST TURNS OUT YOU DON'T EVEN LIKE ME.

IT'S FINE. WHATEVER.

WHOA. WHAT?

BRIDGET, I LIKE YOU.

I MEAN, I REALLY LIKE YOU.

I MEAN, GOSH, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL.

YOU'RE SWEET AND YOU'RE SMART.

YOU KNOW, AT MOST, I THOUGHT WE COULD BE FRIENDS.

BUT I MEAN, I NEVER WOULD HAVE DREAMED THAT...

BRIDGET HENNESSY COULD LIKE SOMEONE WHO...

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, I'M IN MY WORLD; YOU'RE IN YOURS.

OKAY, YOU'RE BEING INITIATED INTO SOME CLUB, AREN'T YOU?

'CAUSE...

WILL YOU MARRY ME?

I'LL QUIT SCHOOL; GET A JOB.

SO WAIT, ALL THAT STUFF YOU WERE SAYING AT THE PARTY

ABOUT ASKING SOME GIRL OUT WAS REALLY ME,

BUT YOU DIDN'T WANT TO 'CAUSE YOU THOUGHT I WAS WAY WAY WAY

OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE AND UNATTAINABLE AND STUFF?

YOU DIDN'T REALLY WANT TO GO OUT WITH LACEY, DID YOU?

- NO, WE WENT OUT. - WHAT?

WELL, YOU KNOW, WE BROKE UP.

OH. OKAY.

YEAH, SHE DUMPED ME. I MEAN, I LIKE PONIES AS MUCH AS THE NEXT GUY,

BUT SHE'S A FREAK.

WAIT WAIT WAIT. HOLD ON A SECOND.

I'M YOUR REBOUND TO PONY GIRL?

LET'S TRY NOT TO LOOK AT IT THAT WAY.

IT'S SO QUIET AROUND HERE WITHOUT C.J.

IT'S CALLED PEACE.

HEY, EVERYBODY, WHAT'S FOR DINNER?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

OH, YEAH, I'M BACK AND I'M IN A GOOD MOOD.

IN LEATHER CLASS, I GOT AN A-MINUS ON MY BELT.

NOW C.J., AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE LIVING AT SCHOOL?

YEAH, WELL, IT'S NOT LIKE I CAN AFFORD THE MEAL PLAN.

I'M SAVING UP FOR A NEW VAN... A COOL ONE WITH FLAMES ON IT.

SO YOU'LL BE COMING HERE EVERY NIGHT FOR DINNER?

WHOA, HEY! I CAN'T PROMISE EVERY NIGHT.

I DO HAVE A LIFE.

HEY, PIPPY, STOP BOGARTING THE MAC AND CHEESE.
