WEBVTT

00:00:01.297 --> 00:00:03.800
We still have a Christmas
present for one of the boys.

00:00:03.883 --> 00:00:05.552
I wonder what it is.

00:00:05.552 --> 00:00:07.303
Reese ever get that
football jersey?

00:00:07.387 --> 00:00:08.430
I can't remember.

00:00:08.471 --> 00:00:09.431
Well, you know, honey,

00:00:09.472 --> 00:00:11.266
the boys got so much
for Christmas last year,

00:00:11.307 --> 00:00:13.268
they don't even
appreciate what
they have.

00:00:13.309 --> 00:00:14.436
If we save it
for his birthday,

00:00:14.477 --> 00:00:15.937
it'll be that much
more special.

00:00:15.979 --> 00:00:17.147
Hal, this one's for you.

00:00:17.188 --> 00:00:18.398
Oh, boy!
You did get me

00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:20.817
that DVD player
I've been hoping for.

00:00:20.859 --> 00:00:22.736
I thought you forgot.

00:00:22.777 --> 00:00:23.820
To be honest with you,

00:00:23.862 --> 00:00:25.405
I've been holding
a grudge for months.

00:00:25.447 --> 00:00:28.199
Now I get to watch
all those DVDs I've got hidden

00:00:28.241 --> 00:00:29.409
in the garage.

00:00:34.122 --> 00:00:35.874
Oh.

00:00:35.915 --> 00:00:39.794
Jumper cables.

00:00:39.836 --> 00:00:41.421
Thank you, honey.

00:01:12.952 --> 00:01:14.704
Oh, this is ridiculous.

00:01:14.788 --> 00:01:17.248
Craig has been in
there for 45 minutes.

00:01:17.290 --> 00:01:18.708
God, I hope I get it

00:01:18.750 --> 00:01:20.460
I hope I get it

00:01:20.502 --> 00:01:22.253
How many people
does he need?

00:01:22.295 --> 00:01:24.172
How long is he going
to be living with us?

00:01:24.214 --> 00:01:25.256
Look, we have to be
patient with him.

00:01:25.298 --> 00:01:26.633
We burned the man's house down.

00:01:26.674 --> 00:01:28.259
How many boys,
how many girls?

00:01:32.305 --> 00:01:33.723
He doesn't like
the way I look

00:01:33.765 --> 00:01:35.308
He doesn't like
the way I dance

00:01:35.350 --> 00:01:36.434
He doesn't like the way...

00:01:36.476 --> 00:01:37.936
That's it, we're
opening the door.

00:01:37.977 --> 00:01:39.270
Someone go get me
a coat hanger.

00:01:39.312 --> 00:01:40.313
I did that
yesterday, Dad.

00:01:40.355 --> 00:01:41.981
Trust me,
don't go in there.

00:01:42.023 --> 00:01:43.817
He's done
when he's done.

00:01:47.028 --> 00:01:48.279
Hey, everyone.

00:01:48.321 --> 00:01:49.656
Say good morning,
Jellybean.

00:01:54.035 --> 00:01:56.037
Oh...

00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.248
dear Lord.

00:01:59.207 --> 00:02:01.000
You know, I'm really excited

00:02:01.042 --> 00:02:03.503
about this father-son
weekend at Marlin.

00:02:03.545 --> 00:02:06.172
Spend some time with Francis,
do some male bonding,

00:02:06.172 --> 00:02:08.007
maybe even a survival hike.

00:02:08.049 --> 00:02:09.342
You have your fluffy pillow?

00:02:09.551 --> 00:02:11.970
Now this is nice.

00:02:12.011 --> 00:02:13.555
And don't you worry
about a thing, Hal.

00:02:13.596 --> 00:02:16.182
I'll take as good care of
your house as you did mine.

00:02:16.224 --> 00:02:17.308
I'm just kidding.

00:02:17.350 --> 00:02:18.518
I won't burn
your house down.

00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.979
But that's all in the past.
Totally forgotten.

00:02:21.020 --> 00:02:23.189
Better get going, though.
Don't want to be late.

00:02:23.231 --> 00:02:24.357
Thanks.

00:02:24.399 --> 00:02:24.649
Bye, honey.

00:02:25.567 --> 00:02:27.443
Uh, Lois,

00:02:27.485 --> 00:02:30.321
I'm aware this isn't the most
comfortable situation here,

00:02:30.405 --> 00:02:32.574
having me around
all the time,

00:02:32.574 --> 00:02:34.117
the forbidden fruit,
as it were.

00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:35.451
Especially now,
with Hal gone.

00:02:35.493 --> 00:02:36.911
Yeah, Craig,
it's not...
But, shh...

00:02:36.911 --> 00:02:39.247
Whatever feelings
we shared...

00:02:39.247 --> 00:02:40.957
that's in the past.

00:02:40.999 --> 00:02:42.667
That part of us
is dead now.

00:02:42.750 --> 00:02:44.419
Craig, I...
Shh, shh, shh!

00:02:44.460 --> 00:02:47.088
(whispers):
Let's not rekindle this.

00:02:49.507 --> 00:02:50.967
You know,
if you're not allowed

00:02:51.009 --> 00:02:52.427
to keep a squirrel
in your locker,

00:02:52.468 --> 00:02:53.678
they should put up a sign.

00:02:53.761 --> 00:02:56.097
I'm not psychic.
I can't read minds.

00:02:58.433 --> 00:02:59.559
Look.

00:02:59.601 --> 00:03:00.894
No, Dewey, let's go.

00:03:00.935 --> 00:03:02.770
No, it's
a minibike.

00:03:04.147 --> 00:03:06.274
Someone's just throwing it away?

00:03:06.316 --> 00:03:08.109
Man, that would be
so cool to have.

00:03:33.384 --> 00:03:34.427
Wait! Wait!

00:03:34.510 --> 00:03:35.720
Wait.

00:03:35.762 --> 00:03:36.763
You can't
throw that out.

00:03:36.846 --> 00:03:37.764
This?

00:03:37.847 --> 00:03:38.765
It's a piece of trash.

00:03:38.848 --> 00:03:40.058
What are you
talking about?

00:03:40.099 --> 00:03:41.517
That's not trash.

00:03:41.559 --> 00:03:43.061
You don't know
what trash is.

00:03:43.102 --> 00:03:45.063
I am a garbage man.

00:03:45.104 --> 00:03:46.564
Look, why don't you
give us the bike?

00:03:46.606 --> 00:03:48.107
Maybe we can fix it up
or something.

00:03:48.191 --> 00:03:50.109
What's it worth to you?

00:03:50.193 --> 00:03:52.070
What? We don't
have any money.

00:03:52.111 --> 00:03:53.863
You were just about
to throw it away.

00:03:53.905 --> 00:03:55.073
Give you 30 bucks.

00:03:55.114 --> 00:03:56.783
Done.

00:03:56.866 --> 00:03:58.701
Where'd you
get 30 bucks?

00:03:58.701 --> 00:04:00.411
What are you, a cop?

00:04:08.461 --> 00:04:10.004
Hey, Lois.

00:04:10.046 --> 00:04:12.924
Just fighting
Father Time.

00:04:12.966 --> 00:04:14.425
Craig, I have to work
late tonight.

00:04:14.467 --> 00:04:15.885
Would you mind
feeding the boys?

00:04:15.927 --> 00:04:17.136
No problem.

00:04:17.178 --> 00:04:18.054
Thanks.

00:04:18.137 --> 00:04:19.681
So, uh, I'm in charge, then?

00:04:19.722 --> 00:04:22.308
All you have to do
is fix them some dinner.
Right.

00:04:22.350 --> 00:04:24.060
But I'm completely in charge.

00:04:24.060 --> 00:04:25.812
They got to
listen to me.

00:04:25.853 --> 00:04:26.854
Dance for me.

00:04:26.896 --> 00:04:29.232
That's right, dance.
Why?

00:04:29.232 --> 00:04:31.859
'Cause I'm in charge,
that's why.

00:04:31.901 --> 00:04:34.237
We burned his house down.

00:04:35.238 --> 00:04:37.115
Look at it.
It was just dirty.

00:04:37.156 --> 00:04:38.574
The paint job's perfect.

00:04:38.574 --> 00:04:40.827
And all it needs is a spark plug
and a carburetor

00:04:40.910 --> 00:04:41.995
and it'll be working.

00:04:42.078 --> 00:04:43.746
We can get that stuff
off Dad's lawnmower.

00:04:43.788 --> 00:04:45.164
This minibike
is the coolest thing

00:04:45.248 --> 00:04:46.291
we've ever had in our lives.

00:04:46.332 --> 00:04:48.960
This totally makes up
for all the years of crap.

00:04:49.002 --> 00:04:51.087
This is the only thing
we've ever shared.

00:04:51.087 --> 00:04:52.964
This is the only thing we've
had that's worth sharing.

00:04:53.006 --> 00:04:54.173
The first thing
I'm gonna do

00:04:54.257 --> 00:04:56.134
is go down to Principal
Littledove's house

00:04:56.175 --> 00:04:57.427
and cut donuts
on his front lawn.

00:04:57.468 --> 00:04:59.595
Okay, why don't you take it
tomorrow and Wednesday

00:04:59.637 --> 00:05:01.514
and I'll take it on...
Excuse me?

00:05:01.597 --> 00:05:03.141
What?
What are you doing?

00:05:03.182 --> 00:05:05.143
Nothing, I'm just
making up a schedule.

00:05:05.184 --> 00:05:07.145
Why do  you  get to
make up the schedule?

00:05:07.186 --> 00:05:08.062
What's the problem?

00:05:08.104 --> 00:05:09.147
I'm giving you
the first day.

00:05:09.188 --> 00:05:10.315
So what?

00:05:10.356 --> 00:05:11.858
You're not the boss
of everyone.

00:05:11.899 --> 00:05:14.235
Look, I'm the one
who put together the engine.

00:05:14.277 --> 00:05:15.737
Well, I'm the one
that paid for it.

00:05:15.778 --> 00:05:18.281
You wouldn't even have it
if I didn't see it.

00:05:18.281 --> 00:05:19.282
Shut up, Dewey.

00:05:19.282 --> 00:05:20.283
You shut up!

00:05:20.283 --> 00:05:21.534
Look, it's not
even fixed yet.

00:05:21.576 --> 00:05:22.952
There's no point
in fighting...

00:05:22.952 --> 00:05:23.953
I get it on Sundays!

00:05:24.037 --> 00:05:24.954
You do not!

00:05:24.954 --> 00:05:26.914
Dewey, you're too short
to even ride it.

00:05:26.956 --> 00:05:30.293
I'm in the 40th percentile.

00:05:30.376 --> 00:05:32.295
And you're too stupid
to ride it.

00:05:32.378 --> 00:05:33.379
Would you guys chill out?

00:05:33.421 --> 00:05:34.464
Shut up!
Yeah, Malcolm!

00:05:34.547 --> 00:05:36.090
You may be able
to boss around

00:05:36.132 --> 00:05:37.300
your loser Krelboynes,

00:05:37.300 --> 00:05:40.219
but normal people don't
have to listen to you.

00:05:40.261 --> 00:05:42.847
Quit talking and hit him.

00:05:42.889 --> 00:05:45.141
You don't have
any friends.

00:05:47.226 --> 00:05:50.646
Mom told you you're never
allowed to talk about that.

00:05:50.646 --> 00:05:54.150
(playing  Three's Company
theme song)

00:06:00.323 --> 00:06:01.657
Let's have a hand

00:06:01.699 --> 00:06:03.493
for Cadet Drew
and his father,

00:06:03.493 --> 00:06:06.329
direct from the showrooms

00:06:06.329 --> 00:06:08.206
of Atlantic City.

00:06:08.247 --> 00:06:11.709
That was just riveting.

00:06:11.751 --> 00:06:15.129
And, now, we have a few more
awards to give out.

00:06:15.171 --> 00:06:16.589
(all groaning)
Now, now,

00:06:16.631 --> 00:06:21.344
we have a lot of students, and
they all deserve recognition.

00:06:23.346 --> 00:06:26.265
The award for
the best history essay

00:06:26.307 --> 00:06:29.185
by a junior or sophomore
goes to...

00:06:29.185 --> 00:06:30.603
Cadet Eric.

00:06:35.441 --> 00:06:36.984
Congratulations.

00:06:37.026 --> 00:06:37.944
Thanks.

00:06:37.985 --> 00:06:39.445
We're so proud
of our Eric.

00:06:39.487 --> 00:06:42.323
We're the luckiest
dads in the world.

00:06:43.866 --> 00:06:45.368
It  was  a great essay.

00:06:45.451 --> 00:06:48.287
I had a shot at the "C"
till he *ed up
the curve.

00:06:48.371 --> 00:06:51.124
They sure are giving out
a lot of awards, huh?

00:06:51.207 --> 00:06:53.251
Yeah, I'm sorry.
This is just ridiculous.

00:06:53.292 --> 00:06:54.919
He gives these
things out like candy.

00:06:54.961 --> 00:06:56.254
And now

00:06:56.295 --> 00:06:58.089
the award for the cadet

00:06:58.131 --> 00:07:00.758
who has shown
the most improvement.

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:05.263
This young lad came to Marlin
as a delinquent jack-a-ninny

00:07:05.304 --> 00:07:07.890
without the slightest
sign of potential.

00:07:07.932 --> 00:07:10.726
And yet, in a mere
year and a half,

00:07:10.768 --> 00:07:12.728
he has started

00:07:12.728 --> 00:07:14.564
to turn himself around.

00:07:14.605 --> 00:07:17.483
He's not all the way there yet,

00:07:17.525 --> 00:07:20.361
but he is on the path
to becoming

00:07:20.403 --> 00:07:23.656
an outstanding member
of the Marlin family.

00:07:23.698 --> 00:07:25.867
I proudly present...

00:07:25.908 --> 00:07:28.411
Cadet Gordie.

00:07:39.422 --> 00:07:41.507
This is nice, you know?

00:07:41.549 --> 00:07:45.511
Sitting around with family,
eating together, sharing.

00:07:45.553 --> 00:07:47.430
What'd you do today, buddy?

00:07:47.430 --> 00:07:49.932
Nothing. I'm too short.

00:07:49.932 --> 00:07:51.601
I wouldn't worry about that,
sport.

00:07:51.601 --> 00:07:53.436
I bet you probably have
the biggest head

00:07:53.436 --> 00:07:54.520
in your whole class.

00:07:54.562 --> 00:07:56.814
Am I too stupid
to have some more peas?

00:07:56.856 --> 00:08:00.151
I don't think there are
any rules on that, Chief.

00:08:03.529 --> 00:08:05.823
Yeah, this is nice.

00:08:05.865 --> 00:08:10.286
I remember when I was your age,
not a care in the world.

00:08:10.286 --> 00:08:11.996
Me and my imaginary brother

00:08:12.038 --> 00:08:15.333
outside in the yard
building forts all day.

00:08:15.374 --> 00:08:17.543
Yep, good times.

00:08:17.585 --> 00:08:19.545
Where do you think you're going?

00:08:19.587 --> 00:08:20.838
To the garage!

00:08:20.880 --> 00:08:22.340
Not alone, you're not!

00:08:22.381 --> 00:08:24.550
I'm coming, too!

00:08:24.592 --> 00:08:27.929
You're all excused.

00:08:27.970 --> 00:08:29.639
Kids.

00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:30.723
Hey, genius,

00:08:30.765 --> 00:08:32.475
you going to be done
any time this year?

00:08:32.475 --> 00:08:35.144
If you'd just shut up and left
me alone, it'd be fixed by now.

00:08:35.228 --> 00:08:37.313
You two disgust me.

00:08:37.396 --> 00:08:39.774
All right, this should do it.

00:08:39.815 --> 00:08:41.108
Let me do it.

00:08:41.150 --> 00:08:43.653
I'm doing it.
Me, me, me, me!

00:08:43.736 --> 00:08:45.488
(engine running)
I told you I could fix it.

00:08:45.488 --> 00:08:47.281
Way to go, jack*.
Now get out of my way.

00:08:47.323 --> 00:08:48.574
Get off!
It's mine!
No!

00:08:49.742 --> 00:08:50.952
It's mine!
Get off!

00:08:50.993 --> 00:08:53.120
It's mine!
Mine!
Move!

00:08:53.162 --> 00:08:54.121
I found it
and I fixed it!

00:08:54.163 --> 00:08:55.289
It's mine!
Leave it alone!

00:08:55.331 --> 00:08:56.499
It's mine!

00:08:56.499 --> 00:08:57.667
LOIS:
It's nobody's!

00:08:59.168 --> 00:09:00.503
What's wrong with you kids?

00:09:00.503 --> 00:09:02.338
You're not allowed
to have a motorcycle.

00:09:08.511 --> 00:09:10.888
What are you doing?
Yeah, that's ours!

00:09:10.930 --> 00:09:12.390
We paid for it
with our own money!

00:09:12.431 --> 00:09:14.392
Well, that was pretty
stupid of you, wasn't it?

00:09:14.433 --> 00:09:17.103
There's no way
you're having a motorcycle.

00:09:17.186 --> 00:09:19.897
But, Mom, it's
not a motorcycle.

00:09:19.939 --> 00:09:21.357
It's just
a little minibike.

00:09:21.357 --> 00:09:22.400
It's a motorcycle.

00:09:22.441 --> 00:09:23.859
It's  not  a motorcycle!

00:09:23.859 --> 00:09:25.027
It's two feet high.

00:09:25.069 --> 00:09:26.571
It was made
specifically for kids.

00:09:26.612 --> 00:09:28.531
Two wheels. Motor.
Motorcycle.

00:09:30.449 --> 00:09:35.037
Look, I... I understand
that, uh, Francis

00:09:35.079 --> 00:09:37.540
is never going to be
the perfect kid.

00:09:37.582 --> 00:09:40.418
You see,
what I'm asking for here

00:09:40.459 --> 00:09:44.171
is, is just a little...
ray of hope.

00:09:45.756 --> 00:09:48.301
Anything at all?

00:09:51.053 --> 00:09:52.888
Francis is...

00:09:54.390 --> 00:09:58.311
...not interested in learning.

00:09:59.604 --> 00:10:02.648
Francis is...

00:10:02.690 --> 00:10:04.358
interested in causing trouble.

00:10:04.400 --> 00:10:08.237
I'm sorry to have to say that,
but I have seen his type before.

00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:09.614
All he likes to do

00:10:09.697 --> 00:10:12.116
is flout authority.

00:10:12.199 --> 00:10:14.118
He has contempt for rules.

00:10:14.201 --> 00:10:16.746
He lives to undermine
and destroy.

00:10:16.954 --> 00:10:18.289
He feels
no compunction...

00:10:18.331 --> 00:10:19.415
Okay.

00:10:19.415 --> 00:10:23.336
I get it.

00:10:23.419 --> 00:10:26.422
Isn't there anything
positive you can tell me?

00:10:27.506 --> 00:10:29.759
Sorry.

00:10:33.429 --> 00:10:34.472
Oh, wait.

00:10:34.513 --> 00:10:35.473
Yes?

00:10:35.514 --> 00:10:38.976
Do you want chicken
or fish tonight?

00:10:42.438 --> 00:10:44.440
Look, Mom,
I don't think you realize

00:10:44.482 --> 00:10:46.233
how much we really want
this bike.

00:10:46.275 --> 00:10:49.403
I looked over your tax return,
and I think I could save you

00:10:49.445 --> 00:10:51.405
about $1,200...

00:10:51.447 --> 00:10:53.199
if  you make it
worth my while.

00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:54.367
No.

00:10:56.744 --> 00:10:59.413
You know that dog
that keeps you up every night?

00:10:59.455 --> 00:11:02.416
I could take him
for a little... "walk."

00:11:02.458 --> 00:11:04.126
No!

00:11:04.168 --> 00:11:05.419
I want it! I want it!

00:11:05.461 --> 00:11:06.879
I hate you! I want it!

00:11:06.921 --> 00:11:08.422
I wish I was dead!

00:11:09.965 --> 00:11:10.633
No!

00:11:10.675 --> 00:11:13.010
Doing laundry, huh?

00:11:13.094 --> 00:11:14.345
Yes, Craig.

00:11:14.428 --> 00:11:16.472
Well, don't even think
of doing my stuff.

00:11:16.514 --> 00:11:18.766
I'm the only guy
that handles my used underpants,

00:11:18.766 --> 00:11:20.643
thank you very much.

00:11:20.685 --> 00:11:22.937
Of course, shame
to waste electricity

00:11:22.978 --> 00:11:25.481
if you got the room.

00:11:27.608 --> 00:11:29.652
Okay, Mom,
we thought about it

00:11:29.694 --> 00:11:30.653
and we understand

00:11:30.695 --> 00:11:32.822
that you're worried
about us getting hurt,

00:11:32.863 --> 00:11:34.532
so we promise we'll
always wear helmets

00:11:34.615 --> 00:11:35.658
when we ride the minibike.

00:11:35.700 --> 00:11:36.701
And in addition to the helmets,

00:11:36.784 --> 00:11:38.285
we'll also wear
elbow and knee pads

00:11:38.285 --> 00:11:39.495
no matter how dorky we look.

00:11:39.537 --> 00:11:41.664
And we'll only ride it
in the park.

00:11:41.706 --> 00:11:43.374
And only under
your supervision

00:11:43.416 --> 00:11:45.793
when you say so and
when you're with us.

00:11:45.835 --> 00:11:46.669
No.

00:11:46.711 --> 00:11:47.586
Wait!

00:11:47.628 --> 00:11:48.462
No!

00:11:48.504 --> 00:11:49.588
This isn't fair!

00:11:49.630 --> 00:11:51.090
You don't get
to just say no!

00:11:51.132 --> 00:11:52.591
Yes, I do.
No, you don't!

00:11:52.633 --> 00:11:54.593
You can't just make
a blanket statement

00:11:54.635 --> 00:11:56.262
that covers
everything.

00:11:56.303 --> 00:11:57.596
There has to be some scenario

00:11:57.638 --> 00:11:59.640
where you'll let us
ride the bike.

00:11:59.682 --> 00:12:01.600
I mean, what if I was
a trained athlete

00:12:01.642 --> 00:12:03.602
who practiced on a simulator
for 15 years

00:12:03.644 --> 00:12:06.605
and wore Kevlar body armor
in a field of marshmallows?

00:12:06.647 --> 00:12:07.606
I would still say no.

00:12:07.648 --> 00:12:08.774
Now stop bothering me.

00:12:08.816 --> 00:12:10.109
I don't know, Lois.

00:12:10.151 --> 00:12:11.819
The boys sound
pretty reasonable to me.

00:12:11.819 --> 00:12:13.112
Stay out of this, Craig.

00:12:13.154 --> 00:12:14.989
Hey! I live here, too, don't I?

00:12:14.989 --> 00:12:16.741
Sorry, baby.

00:12:16.824 --> 00:12:18.909
Mom's just doing this
'cause she can't stand

00:12:18.993 --> 00:12:20.828
that we were
actually working together.

00:12:20.828 --> 00:12:23.998
I know. Fixing that
bike up was the best
time we ever had.

00:12:23.998 --> 00:12:25.499
I never wanted it to end.

00:12:25.541 --> 00:12:28.085
Yeah. We were
a perfect team.

00:12:28.169 --> 00:12:29.336
We still are.

00:12:29.378 --> 00:12:31.547
The three of us,
we're going to work together

00:12:31.589 --> 00:12:32.715
and find a way to beat her.

00:12:32.757 --> 00:12:34.717
She's going down.

00:12:34.759 --> 00:12:38.012
Hey... wait a minute.

00:12:42.266 --> 00:12:46.729
Boys! I need some help!

00:12:46.771 --> 00:12:47.855
Oh.

00:12:47.897 --> 00:12:49.732
What's this?

00:12:50.775 --> 00:12:52.735
Looks like a picture
of you on a horse.

00:12:52.777 --> 00:12:54.612
What were you,
about Dewey's age?

00:12:57.698 --> 00:12:59.283
What are you doing with this?

00:12:59.325 --> 00:13:01.368
This looks
awfully  dangerous.

00:13:01.410 --> 00:13:02.661
Look at that.

00:13:02.703 --> 00:13:04.497
No padding, no helmet.

00:13:04.538 --> 00:13:06.040
Did you ever fall?

00:13:06.081 --> 00:13:07.541
What does this
have to do with...?

00:13:07.583 --> 00:13:10.169
We're asking the questions.

00:13:10.211 --> 00:13:11.378
MALCOLM:
So, according

00:13:11.378 --> 00:13:12.671
to your logic,

00:13:12.713 --> 00:13:14.048
a two-foot fall
from a minibike

00:13:14.131 --> 00:13:16.133
is more dangerous
than a six-foot fall

00:13:16.175 --> 00:13:17.468
from a galloping horse?

00:13:17.510 --> 00:13:19.887
That was a long time ago.

00:13:19.887 --> 00:13:22.598
Before gravity?

00:13:22.640 --> 00:13:24.767
I don't have time for this
right now.

00:13:24.809 --> 00:13:26.393
I have to get ready...

00:13:26.393 --> 00:13:29.605
I have to go to work.

00:13:29.647 --> 00:13:30.773
Did you see that?

00:13:30.815 --> 00:13:32.441
We totally rattled her!
Yeah!

00:13:32.483 --> 00:13:33.609
We did it!

00:13:33.651 --> 00:13:34.777
It worked!

00:13:34.819 --> 00:13:35.778
We've got Mom!

00:13:35.820 --> 00:13:36.821
What?

00:13:36.904 --> 00:13:38.072
There's a chink in the armor!

00:13:38.113 --> 00:13:39.240
We're going to do it!

00:13:39.281 --> 00:13:41.158
If we just play it cool,
have a little patience,

00:13:41.242 --> 00:13:43.077
we'll have the minibike
by the end of the week!

00:13:43.077 --> 00:13:43.994
No, we won't.

00:13:44.078 --> 00:13:45.079
It's broken.

00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:46.622
What?

00:13:46.664 --> 00:13:48.290
I snuck it out
for a ride.

00:13:48.332 --> 00:13:49.792
And you know what?

00:13:49.834 --> 00:13:51.252
They  are  dangerous.

00:13:54.797 --> 00:13:57.007
You think Mom will notice?

00:14:02.763 --> 00:14:05.724
You moron! Do you have any idea
what you've done?

00:14:05.766 --> 00:14:07.309
We were  so  close!
We had her!

00:14:07.351 --> 00:14:08.519
That's what I figured.

00:14:08.561 --> 00:14:10.104
I wouldn't have taken it
otherwise.

00:14:10.187 --> 00:14:11.230
I'm not an idiot.

00:14:11.272 --> 00:14:13.732
I can't believe you would...

00:14:13.774 --> 00:14:14.942
How was it?

00:14:14.942 --> 00:14:15.943
It was awesome.

00:14:15.943 --> 00:14:17.236
I looked really cool doing it.

00:14:17.278 --> 00:14:19.363
I could see my reflection
in the car windows

00:14:19.405 --> 00:14:20.948
right up until I hit
the mailbox.

00:14:20.948 --> 00:14:24.577
Sometimes you just
embarrass me.

00:14:24.618 --> 00:14:26.954
It's okay.
Mom doesn't have to find out.

00:14:26.954 --> 00:14:28.205
I'll be fine.

00:14:28.289 --> 00:14:29.665
My leg's really
starting to feel better.

00:14:29.707 --> 00:14:32.459
Let's see it.
Ow!

00:14:32.459 --> 00:14:34.295
(knock on door)
Hi, Mom!
Hello.

00:14:34.336 --> 00:14:35.963
Look, boys,
I was thinking about it,

00:14:35.963 --> 00:14:38.674
and, uh, you're old enough
to deserve an explanation.

00:14:38.716 --> 00:14:39.842
I was...

00:14:39.884 --> 00:14:41.719
You don't always know
what's best for us!

00:14:41.802 --> 00:14:43.554
You don't know
that we would have gotten hurt!

00:14:43.637 --> 00:14:44.847
There's such a thing as trust!

00:14:44.889 --> 00:14:46.223
I  really  think we've earned it!

00:14:46.307 --> 00:14:48.475
Reese, I'm not saying
that I...
I don't have

00:14:48.475 --> 00:14:49.852
to sit here and listen to this!

00:14:49.894 --> 00:14:51.478
Yes, you do.
Oh, right.

00:14:51.520 --> 00:14:53.230
Look, I'll tell you what.

00:14:53.314 --> 00:14:54.857
How about I take you to the
skateboard park tonight, huh?

00:14:54.899 --> 00:14:56.150
How does that sound?

00:14:56.150 --> 00:14:58.652
Actually, I'm
pretty tired.

00:14:58.694 --> 00:15:01.071
Me, too, and I think
I really want to get a jump

00:15:01.113 --> 00:15:02.573
on next week's homework.

00:15:02.615 --> 00:15:04.783
What's going on?

00:15:04.825 --> 00:15:05.784
You guys are...

00:15:05.826 --> 00:15:07.369
CRAIG:
Lois! Lois!

00:15:07.411 --> 00:15:09.580
Oh, for God's sake!

00:15:09.622 --> 00:15:11.165
What is it now?

00:15:11.248 --> 00:15:13.667
What's the matter, Craig?

00:15:13.751 --> 00:15:16.420
What does it say
on this jar?

00:15:16.462 --> 00:15:17.838
"Craig."

00:15:17.922 --> 00:15:20.007
Well, I'm glad someone
around here can read.

00:15:20.007 --> 00:15:22.009
These jars come
with 14 pickles in them.

00:15:22.009 --> 00:15:24.011
I had three yesterday,
two for lunch today

00:15:24.011 --> 00:15:25.679
and one-and-a-half
for a snack,

00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:29.016
and now there are six-and-a-half
pickles in this jar!

00:15:29.099 --> 00:15:30.434
Simple math indicates...

00:15:30.476 --> 00:15:32.311
Are you counting the one
in your hand?

00:15:34.021 --> 00:15:35.731
Okay, false alarm.

00:15:37.733 --> 00:15:40.444
We burned his house down.
We burned his house down.

00:15:45.699 --> 00:15:48.285
Oh,  this  is the guy.

00:15:48.369 --> 00:15:49.286
This  is Francis.

00:15:49.370 --> 00:15:50.704
What I want to know is,

00:15:50.746 --> 00:15:51.914
how did you get the cow

00:15:51.956 --> 00:15:53.540
onto the roof
of the gymnasium

00:15:53.582 --> 00:15:54.750
in the first place?

00:15:54.792 --> 00:15:55.751
Ah, that was easy.

00:15:55.793 --> 00:15:57.127
The parachute was the problem.

00:15:57.211 --> 00:15:58.587
Did you know
those things don't open

00:15:58.629 --> 00:16:00.631
unless you're thousands of feet
in the air?

00:16:00.714 --> 00:16:02.383
You live, you learn.

00:16:02.383 --> 00:16:03.759
Did I ever tell you about that?

00:16:03.801 --> 00:16:05.094
No.

00:16:05.135 --> 00:16:07.680
Look at this: archery,
debating, field hockey...

00:16:07.721 --> 00:16:09.723
Look at all these
clubs and teams,

00:16:09.723 --> 00:16:11.225
and you're not
in any of them.

00:16:11.308 --> 00:16:14.061
There isn't even
a picture of you
in the yearbook.

00:16:14.061 --> 00:16:16.063
Look under Pete Zahut.

00:16:16.063 --> 00:16:18.399
I don't want to look
under Pete Zahut.

00:16:18.482 --> 00:16:20.067
No, no, no, if you say it
fast, it sounds like...

00:16:20.067 --> 00:16:21.151
I don't believe this.

00:16:21.193 --> 00:16:24.238
Francis... don't you
care about anything?

00:16:24.321 --> 00:16:25.322
What?

00:16:25.364 --> 00:16:27.574
In a school filled
with problem children,

00:16:27.574 --> 00:16:29.910
you're the worst one here.

00:16:32.079 --> 00:16:33.080
Wait, that's not true.

00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:34.707
I can think of
three other guys

00:16:34.748 --> 00:16:36.166
with longer records
than I have.

00:16:36.208 --> 00:16:37.918
We have worked
and we've worked,

00:16:37.918 --> 00:16:40.170
trying anything we can think of
to turn you around,

00:16:40.212 --> 00:16:42.089
but nothing seems
to get through to you.

00:16:42.089 --> 00:16:43.966
Come on, Dad.

00:16:44.008 --> 00:16:46.635
No. You don't give a damn
about anything but yourself!

00:16:46.677 --> 00:16:48.971
And, Francis, I don't like
saying these things,

00:16:49.013 --> 00:16:50.472
but what am I supposed to do?

00:16:50.514 --> 00:16:52.933
I-I feel like I have
to give up on my own son.

00:16:52.933 --> 00:16:53.976
Dad...

00:16:54.018 --> 00:16:57.312
You know, I can't even
look at you right now.

00:16:59.023 --> 00:17:01.942
I don't remember
if we're hating each other

00:17:01.942 --> 00:17:04.111
or liking each other,
but either way

00:17:04.111 --> 00:17:05.362
I appreciate this.

00:17:05.446 --> 00:17:06.989
Ah, it's been
two hours, Reese.

00:17:07.031 --> 00:17:08.699
The swelling
isn't going down.

00:17:08.782 --> 00:17:10.659
Look, you can see
his heartbeat.

00:17:10.701 --> 00:17:13.370
Oh, man. We really
need to get you
to the hospital.

00:17:13.412 --> 00:17:16.123
We can't! Mom will kill us
if she finds out about the bike.

00:17:16.123 --> 00:17:17.541
This isn't about the bike!

00:17:17.583 --> 00:17:19.418
We're *ed
for the next five years

00:17:19.460 --> 00:17:20.627
on anything we'd like to do.

00:17:22.129 --> 00:17:24.548
There's got to be some way
we can get you to the hospital

00:17:24.590 --> 00:17:25.799
before she finds out.

00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:27.384
Then we could come up
with a cover story.

00:17:27.426 --> 00:17:29.303
Could you handle that?
Because I'm going to scream

00:17:29.303 --> 00:17:31.138
into my pillow
for the next five minutes.

00:17:31.138 --> 00:17:34.641
There's got to be some way
we can do this.

00:17:34.641 --> 00:17:36.477
Have you seen
Jellybean's sweater?

00:17:38.645 --> 00:17:40.981
I don't know why we have to go
all the way across town.

00:17:40.981 --> 00:17:42.149
Seems kind of silly.

00:17:42.149 --> 00:17:45.152
Craig, I promise,
it's the best ice cream in town.

00:17:45.152 --> 00:17:47.029
Yeah, well, I'll be
the judge of that.

00:17:49.156 --> 00:17:50.324
What was that?

00:17:50.365 --> 00:17:52.534
REESE:
Ow!

00:17:52.576 --> 00:17:53.744
Ow, my leg!

00:17:53.827 --> 00:17:56.038
Ow. Ow.

00:17:56.080 --> 00:17:58.415
Ow! Ow! Ow!

00:17:58.499 --> 00:18:00.042
Ow!

00:18:00.084 --> 00:18:02.044
Oh, my God! What did
I do? What did I do?

00:18:02.086 --> 00:18:03.212
You ran over his leg!

00:18:04.838 --> 00:18:06.006
What happened?

00:18:06.006 --> 00:18:08.050
Oh, my God! Reese!

00:18:08.092 --> 00:18:09.468
Ow!

00:18:09.510 --> 00:18:11.220
Ow!

00:18:13.305 --> 00:18:16.767
Oh, for God's sakes, Jonathan,
pull yourself together.

00:18:16.809 --> 00:18:18.894
He'll be home
for your birthday.

00:18:20.312 --> 00:18:22.356
You got a problem?

00:18:29.863 --> 00:18:31.532
An untucked

00:18:31.615 --> 00:18:32.658
shirttail, Cadet?

00:18:32.699 --> 00:18:34.660
Is that what we teach you here?

00:18:34.701 --> 00:18:36.203
To disgrace your uniform?

00:18:36.203 --> 00:18:38.205
I think not.

00:18:38.205 --> 00:18:39.289
Sir, his shirt
just came untucked

00:18:39.331 --> 00:18:41.208
when he was hugging
his father.

00:18:41.208 --> 00:18:42.209
You can't
yell at him

00:18:42.209 --> 00:18:43.293
for hugging his father.

00:18:43.335 --> 00:18:44.878
Francis...
No.

00:18:44.878 --> 00:18:47.047
No, I'm glad you saw this.

00:18:47.131 --> 00:18:49.216
This is exactly
what I was talking about.

00:18:49.216 --> 00:18:52.136
Always undermining my authority.

00:18:52.177 --> 00:18:54.721
Day in, day out,
it's the same thing.

00:18:54.721 --> 00:18:58.475
Like when I had Cadet Dooley
run 600 laps of the perimeter

00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:01.103
for an inside-out
pillowcase violation,

00:19:01.145 --> 00:19:03.313
Francis organizes
a sit-in.

00:19:03.397 --> 00:19:05.149
Or when I cut off
the electricity

00:19:05.232 --> 00:19:08.110
to the fifth floor
for a contraband boom box,

00:19:08.152 --> 00:19:09.403
he hijacks a generator

00:19:09.403 --> 00:19:10.988
for them.

00:19:11.071 --> 00:19:14.116
The boy lives to cause chaos.

00:19:14.158 --> 00:19:15.909
He was hugging his dad!

00:19:15.951 --> 00:19:17.744
In front of his own father,

00:19:17.786 --> 00:19:20.122
he still defies me
at every turn.

00:19:20.164 --> 00:19:22.082
And every time something
like that happens,

00:19:22.082 --> 00:19:23.125
he challenges you?

00:19:23.167 --> 00:19:24.293
Every time.

00:19:24.334 --> 00:19:26.295
Even when he knows
he'll get in trouble?

00:19:26.336 --> 00:19:29.006
That doesn't seem
to matter to him at all.

00:19:31.258 --> 00:19:32.926
I understand.

00:19:32.968 --> 00:19:37.139
I will deal with you later.

00:19:37.181 --> 00:19:38.974
Look, Dad,
I just want to...

00:19:39.057 --> 00:19:40.893
Shut up, son.

00:19:43.020 --> 00:19:44.146
Oh, come here.

00:19:49.109 --> 00:19:51.069
I can't believe
that plan actually worked.

00:19:51.111 --> 00:19:53.280
We came up with it
in, like, two seconds.

00:19:53.322 --> 00:19:55.449
Maybe we should do
more things half-assed.

00:19:55.490 --> 00:19:56.950
Hey, Reese,
how's your leg?

00:19:56.992 --> 00:19:58.076
Not bad.

00:19:58.118 --> 00:19:59.995
The pain goes away
when I black out.

00:20:00.037 --> 00:20:01.163
You guys want anything to drink?

00:20:01.246 --> 00:20:02.414
Sure.
Great.
All right.

00:20:02.456 --> 00:20:03.665
One more thing.

00:20:04.833 --> 00:20:06.418
Did you really think
I wouldn't notice

00:20:06.460 --> 00:20:10.130
a busted up minibike
half-buried in the sandbox?

00:20:12.132 --> 00:20:13.800
Jellybean and I
are leaving now.

00:20:13.842 --> 00:20:15.177
Once again, I'm very sorry.

00:20:15.219 --> 00:20:17.638
I can't even look you people
in the eye.

00:20:20.224 --> 00:20:24.478
I think we'll call this one
a wash.

00:20:30.984 --> 00:20:32.194
I love you, Francis.

00:20:32.236 --> 00:20:33.654
Good-bye.

00:20:33.654 --> 00:20:35.072
Love you, too, Dad.
