MISS WESTMORE: Well, people,
it's your favorite time of year again.

I'm talking about
the annual Technology Expo.

I'll be dividing you into small groups.
And this year...

your project will count for
25% of your final grade.

25%? That's almost one-fourth.

Maybe we can work with Poc Voo.

Last year, didn't he discover a new fuel?

Yeah, Voo-seline. It's $500 a gallon.

I hear Madonna heats her house with it.

I will now assign the groups.

- Poc Voo.
- Please, Poc Voo.

Riley, Chloe, and Poc Voo...

[Shrieking]

you will not be working together.

Girls, you're with Larry.

I love messing with their minds.

Don't worry, girls.
We are going to ace this project.

I know where to score some plutonium.

[Imitating an explosion]

[Upbeat pop music]

Okay, Chloe. We need to pick a project
that will really stand out.

So what do you think?

Garfield, will you
ever stop hating Mondays?

Are you even listening to me?

We're talking about 25% of our grade here.

Three words: Potato alarm clock.

Potato alarm clock. Perfect.

Except we did it already.
In the third grade!

Exactly. It's a classic.

What part of "25% of our grade"
do you and Garfield not understand?

- How do you guys feel about cloning?
- I still like the potato clock.

Somebody help me. I am so alone.

How scientific.

I think it's cute. We can call it
"Larry and his Little Lambs."

We're not cloning a sheep.

Fine. Make it a human.
As long as it's not the lunch lady.

People, please! I can't think for all of us.

Okay, so what do you guys think
about a homemade weather balloon.

Yeah, a weather balloon.

Can it be potato-powered?

What's with you
and this potato obsession?

I'm just trying to figure out what to do
with the 50-pound sack I just bought.

[Theme song]

[Upbeat pop music]

Absolutely. See you in 10.

- Look who's home before midnight.
- Got to download some files.

Can I fix you a bite to eat?

No, thanks, I already had
a Wheat Thin and two Rolos.

Come on! I don't have all day here.

This is not healthy.
Let me make you a real lunch.

No. Don't have time. I'll eat next week.

[Phone rings]

It's Macy.

Dan, don't worry.
The capri pants are coming.

Yes. Can you hang on?

Hello? Sidney, where the hell
are the capri pants?

No, I said ship the capri pants,
I did not say ship the pants to Capri!

Wait, hang on,
I'm getting a text message.

Hang on, Dan.

- Manuelo, please stop doing that.
- Stop doing what?

- Spinning around the room like that.
- But I'm not spinning.

MACY: Oh, boy.

[Thudding]

She's going to be fine. She just needs
to slow down and de-stress.

I knew this was going to happen.

I begged her to eat!

But she would not listen to me!

I don't think yelling at her
will help reduce the stress.

I know, but stress makes me tense.

Are we just about done here?
'Cause I really need to get back to work.

Honey, you've worked
six months straight without a break.

The doctor said you need to slow down.
Take some time off.

But who'll run the business?

- I will.
- You?

And I will help.

That ought to help
take off some of the stress, Macy.

[Slow pop music]

Thank goodness Mom was fine.
And Dad, of course, came to the rescue.

Which makes you wonder
why the heck they got separated.

It's weird. They spend more time together
now that they're separated.

You know grown-ups.
They make no sense.

Bottom line: Mom needs
her peace and quiet.

So you and I have to build
our science project with Larry...

without making any noise.

That's like trying to eat a hot dog
after you've read the ingredients.

[Slow pop music continues]

[Girls shushing]

Hi. I'd like to check the status
of a shipping order.

It's 7-P-W-X-Y....

Why, there's Jake with my tea. Bye, Mom.

What? It was my mom.

And did she tell you if the order's in?

- Okay, I made one teensy call.
- Hand it over.

Honey, relax. Look, I am really having
a good time running the business.

And you know what?
I'm actually pretty good at it.

So just relax. Everything is under control.

We got a big problem.

We're trying to keep Macy calm.

The buttons never made it to Seattle.

And it's $100,000 order.

Now is not the time to panic.
It's time to find the buttons.

- I know where the buttons are.
- Then we're fine.

It'll cost a little more to overnight them,
but there's no reason to panic.

- Where are the buttons?
- Havana.

Now, see, that's a reason to panic.

[Upbeat instrumental music]

[Riley shushing]

We can't disturb Mom. She needs her rest.

Then how are we going to build
this stupid thing?

Very quietly.

And it's not a stupid thing.

We're going to have the only
radio-controlled weather station...

in the Tech Expo.

Miss Westmore
better give us an A for this.

First, we need to make the box.

But Mom is sleeping, so
you have to hammer the nails very quietly.

Too loud.

Still too loud.

Fine. You can hammer the nails
just a little louder.

Thank you.

CHLOE: Are you okay?
RILEY: I'll get the ice.

CHLOE: Let me see.

- How are you feeling?
- Wonderful.

What?

I'm in the room where Riley lives.

I am breathing the air that Riley breathes.

[Inhaling deeply]

This is the pillow where she lays her head
at night when she's dreaming.

This is the brush
that she brushes her hair with.

With the actual hairs from her head in it.

This is the phone that she screams:

"Larry, it is 2:00 in the morning!
Leave me alone!"

How glad am I, I'm not Riley?

[Upbeat pop music]

You want to know where the buttons are?
It's kind of a funny story.

They ended up on a different ship
than the blouses.

Okay, it wasn't that funny a story.
But trust me.

We've tracked them down and we're
sending them out as soon as possible.

In fact, you can say,
you'll have those buttons in a snap.

I've got good news.

My cousin Jamie
got the buttons out of Havana.

That's great.
Everything's going to work out fine.

- If it weren't for the trade winds.
- What trade winds?

The trade winds that blew
the raft with the buttons to Guam.

[Fast-paced pop music]

We did it. We built a weather station!

May it rise gently upon the four winds
to its noble celestial abode.

Wow, Larry, that's really beautiful.

Thanks. I read it on a can of air freshener.

Okay. Let her go.

It's working! We did it!

I can smell the A.

Wait, how does this work again?

Simple.

With this receiver, and this tracking device
that's attached to the balloon....

You forgot to attach the tracking device?

Larry, how could you?

There goes our hopes, our dreams,
our allowance!

- Our grades.
- Thanks for reminding me.

- Good bye, A.
- Hello, summer school.

[Upbeat instrumental music]

This client is screaming for the buttons.

I know exactly where they are.
I've been charting their progress.

Hold it steady.

Sorry. I'm a little jittery
from all the coffee.

They were last seen in Honolulu.

At least we're in the right hemisphere.

We just have to keep this from Macy.

She's been sticking her nose
into everything.

I can't seem to get her to relax.

Maybe it's time to bring in a professional.

That's good. Okay, let's think.

Who do we know who is an expert
at doing nothing all day long?

Tedi, please.

I'm going to break you from working
so hard if it's the last thing I do.

I don't need your help.

I'm going to be your mother,
your sister, your father confessor.

I'm fine. I'm relaxed. I'm serene.

Okay. Now, let's see.
I've got your cell phone...

your cordless phone, laptop,
electronic organizer, beeper...

fax machine, personal memo recorder,
and your label maker.

Are you sure that's it?

Yeah.

MACY: What--
TEDI: Spread them!

[Macy shrieks]

MACY: Tedi!
TEDI: What's this?

A Post-it with a phone number on it.

- I need that.
- You disgust me.

That's my distributor! I need this.

This is very important because....

Wait, is that a three or an eight?

Look at you. You're hooked.

I'm pathetic, aren't I?

Help me?

Tedi, you were right.

Shopping was exactly what I needed
to relax, get my mind off work.

Yeah, look what you bought.

A zip drive, an upgrade for your Quicken,
and a lumbar support for your office chair.

But at least I am relaxed.

Tell that to those knots in your shoulders.

I'm pulling out the big guns: Bubble bath.

Now, I want you to run the water...

and don't come out till you're as wrinkled
as Anna Nicole Smith's next husband.

That's an order!

- But I--
- Zip!

[Tedi sighing]

- How's it going?
- She's a pretty tough case.

I never realized
how stressful Macy's job really is.

- I don't know how much more I can take.
- I think I finally cracked her.

Hopefully, we've stopped her
from going over the edge.

[Upbeat instrumental music]

[Speaking German]

Wait, operator, hang on.

Excuse me. Do any of you
have $32 dollars in quarters?

[Disconnecting button clicks]

Step away from the phone.

[Upbeat instrumental music]

Behold our new weather station.

A lawn chair with some balloons attached.

I have to admit, it's better than I expected.

- Thank you.
- I have a better idea.

What you're about to say had better not
have the words "clock" or "potato" in it.

Larry, why are we trusting you
with 25% of our grade?

A: What choice do you have?

And B: If I don't come through,
then you never have to see me again.

- So either way, we win!
- All right, it's a deal.

But where's the tracking device?

We don't need it.
This is a manned weather station.

Really?

And who's the man that's going to man
this manned weather station?

Oh, man.

According to my calculations,
taking into account wind resistance...

I should touch down at school...

in 15 minutes. I'll see you there.

Blast off!

- I knew it wouldn't work.
- Why would it? It's Larry.

It's working!

LARRY: One small step for mankind,
one giant leap for Larry!

Why do I have a strong feeling that
we're going to be a headline tomorrow?

[Slow pop music]

Girl, I can't believe
you snuck out of the house.

Why are you so driven?

I don't know. It's how I've always been.

So, what are you saying?
This goes back to your childhood?

Yeah, I grew up watching my mother
depend on my father for everything.

I didn't want to be that way.

So when all the other kids were playing
and having fun at the mall...

I was working at the mall.

Everything I got, I got by hard work.

It's not easy to just turn it off.

Macy, look at you.

You're a mother
to two beautiful daughters...

you have a lovely home,
you run a successful business.

But what good is any of that
if you never take time to enjoy it?

I'm just not sure I know how.

I don't even know where I would start.
What do I do?

Do I go to a movie? Do I go shopping?

I have a better idea.
Let's get up and dance.

Tedi, I'm not really in the mood.

Come on, you got to let loose
and get a little crazy.

Tedi, I won't dance, don't ask me.

[All hooting]

[Upbeat pop music]

RILEY: Larry, come in.

Where is he?

Ladies, what have you got for me?

Prepare to be surprised.
'Cause I know we are.

What's your position, Larry?

I'm about three kilometers
north of Westwood.

The weather looks clear.

The wind is from the north-northwest.

By the way, there's a Sig-Alert
on the 405 at Wilshire.

You might want to consider Sepulveda.

Thanks to tipster John
for calling that one in.

Slotnick, do you think
I was born yesterday?

Do you really expect me to believe that
you're actually flying around out there?

Hold that thought.
It's getting a little bumpy.

There's a plane coming right at me!

PILOT: Roger that, tower. We ha ve
an unidentified flying...lawn chair?

LARRY: That was close.

How close?

Really close.

Let's put it this way. The choice of entrée
was lasagna or chicken.

And the in-flight movie
was Inspector Gadget.

Are you girls honestly telling me...

that you have built
a fully-functional traffic copter?

- A what? No, it's a--
- Yes!

That's exactly what it is. A traffic copter.

That's fantastic.

I'm giving your group an A plus.

[Whooping]

LARRY: Girls? Houston, we ha ve a problem.

Larry, are you okay?

LARRY: Get away!

Larry, what's wrong? What's going on?

LARRY: I'm being attacked
by a giant flock of seagulls.

They're after the snack I packed
in case I got hungry.

You winged rat! Get your ugly beak
off my peanut butter sandwich.

And stop pecking at my balloon!

[Balloon popping]

[Radio static]

LARRY: Mayday! I'm going down.

Larry!

[Upbeat instrumental music]

I really must ask you one more time.
Where the heck are my buttons?

First they were in Cuba,
and then Guam, then Honolulu.

Then, for some unknown reason,
they were routed through Saskatoon.

Isn't that funny?

What's even funnier: I have not slept
or eaten in over two days.

I've been surviving on espresso
and Flintstones Chewable Vitamins!

Hey, Jake. How's it going?

I.... You.... Buttons....

I just got off the phone from Seattle.

- And the buttons have arrived.
- That's great.

The problem is that the buttons
are not the right size for the buttonholes.

Okay, let me handle this.

No, we've got it under control.
You go and lay your head and rest.

I appreciate you guys filling in, I really do.

But I'm back and better than ever.

I can't tell you how happy I am
to hear that.

Yes. Happy, happy.

Macy, will you please stop doing that?

- Stop doing what?
- Spinning all over the room.

I am not spinning all over the room.

[Thudding]

[Upbeat instrumental music]

CHLOE: Larry, are you okay?
RILEY: Larry, come in.

I am over here.

- Larry, are you all right?
- I think so.

Guess what?
Miss Westmore gave us an A plus.

- She did?
- Yep.

I don't know how you did it, Larry,
but you pulled it off.

[Girls chuckling]

- Excellent job, Mr. Slotnick.
- Thank you.

Your group gets the silver medal.

- Wait a minute. The silver?
- That's right.

The gold medal goes to Poc Voo
and his brilliant potato alarm clock.

It's calibrated to the Naval Atomic Clock
in Nevada.

And a delicious Idaho Russet,
if I'm not mistaken.

Don't even say it.
