Maybe the world is blind or just a little unkind.

Don't know.

Seems you can't be sure of anything anymore.

doing tomorrow afternoon?

It's Saturday.

I'm either having tea with Lady Di or I'm taking you and Cherry to the movies.

Uh -oh.

What's uh -oh mean?

Oh, nothing. Just uh -oh.

Henry, do you mind doing something different Saturday?

Not at all.

We can go to the zoo or to the museum.

No, we don't want to go to the movies.

We just wanted you to do something different.

Oh, I see.

Don't feel bad. You can still drop us off.

Gee, thanks.

In other words, you want his show frame, but not his company?

Yes, exactly.

Thanks, guys.

Wait a minute.

Girls, don't you think you've been just a little unkind?

We're sorry, Henry. We'd just rather see the movie alone this week.

We go to the movies together every Saturday. Why suddenly do you want to go

alone? It's nothing personal.

Honest.

Yeah, it's just embarrassing.

All my friends are there, and I'm the only one with a parent.

Oh, come on. I try to fit in.

When something exciting happens, I say, Oh, wow, rad man.

Please, Henry, say you understand.

Okay, okay, I understand.

Great!

Stop talking.

It makes you look like you have three lips.

That's the thanks I get. I try to be a pal to Punky, and I turn out to be an

embarrassment.

Henry, don't you see what those girls are up to?

Of course I do.

What do you think they're up to?

They're meeting boys at the movie.

Boys? They have dates?

No, they don't have dates. They have seating arrangements.

What?

It's simple.

If a boy likes a girl or a girl likes a boy, they sit together at the movies.

No big deal.

How do you know about this?

I was once a 12 -year -old girl myself, you know.

That's amazing.

What, that I was 12?

No.

That there were movies way back then.

Come on, Punky.

It's now or never.

You're right. I'm going to call Brian and ask him to filter with me at the

movies. He'll say yes, and it'll be great.

Right. Piece of cake.

I'm so nervous.

I hate telephones.

Me too, but it's tough to make a call without one.

I'll do it.

I'm dialing...

sure you don't want me to stay with you?

Positive. Wow!

Check out the line at the candy counter. A person could starve to death here.

Oh, look.

They're showing classic cartoons.

Wouldn't you rather see that?

to kick people.

Quite a little comedian, aren't you?

I'm getting worried. Where's Brian?

Trust me, Brian is coming.

Are you punky? Yeah. Brian's not coming.

Who are you and why isn't Brian coming?

I can't believe it. He stood me up.

I'd better run along now before I embarrass someone.

It's okay, Henry. You can stay.

Oh, wonderful.

I'll get the seats. You get the popcorn.

Miserable, depressed.

Hi, Punky.

Hi, Tom.

Sherry, it's Tom LaFleur.

Hi, Tom, we're Cindy.

We kind of don't see each other anymore.

Really? Why not?

Well, she's totally into Michael Jackson.

And I'm really a Springsteen fan.

We were doomed from the start.

sandwiches? No. I bought it from the manager.

It was his lunch.

So then, what did Tom say?

Just how lucky it was we happened to see each other. And would I sit with him

again next Saturday?

So I guess you're over your sore throat?

Or flat tire?

Or was it a cat funeral?

Okay. I lied about why I didn't show up.

No!

The truth is I was grounded. I was too embarrassed to tell you.

Really? Why were you grounded?

I was practicing karate on my little brother.

I came over because I really like you.

And I didn't want you to think that I stood you up.

Don't be silly. I never thought you stood me up. Did I, Cherry?

No.

So you're not mad at me?

Of course not.

Great. Look, my soccer team's having a picnic next Saturday.

Will you come with me?

Sure. It sounds like fun.

Great. I'll pick you up at noon. See you there. Bye.

what I've done. I mean, what am I going to do? This is terrible.

Oh, yeah. I really feel sorry for you, Punky.

What a problem.

You've got two guys.

I've got milk duds.

Jerry, give me some help here.

You have to tell one of them that you can't go.

But I can't tell Brian I'm going to be with Tom. He might dump me.

And I can't tell Tom I'm going to be with Brian.

He might dump me.

You can't be two places at once.

You have to choose.

Choose?

I like them both.

You must like one more than the other.

Oh, I don't know.

Tom is so good -looking and fun.

And Brian is so good -looking and fun.

and do our homework together, okay? Okay. Great, bye.

That was a whole lot easier than telling the truth.

Right, Brandon?

What

are you

seeing today?

Plastic break dancers from Pluto.

Sounds socially irrelevant.

You know, If you'd like, I could hang out with you.

Sorry, Henry.

I'll see you girls after the show.

See Tom anywhere?

Not yet.

Jerry, you brought a camera to the movies?

In case...

It's raining.

Right. Rain.

Of course.

Cherry, it's raining.

Why didn't you tell me it was raining? People don't picnic in the rain.

I figured since we were sopping wet, you noticed it was raining.

What are you doing here?

The weather was so bad, Aunt Flo couldn't fly in.

So, here we are.

What luck.

you have a ticket for?

Heads Roll and Slime House.

Oh, too bad. We're seeing classic breakdancers from Pluto.

Well, Heads Roll is a much better movie.

I'll just go get you another ticket.

film in case there's bloodshed.

Shall we go in?

Yes.

Are you excited

about the movie?

And a good and plenty.

Oh, buttered popcorn.

I have to watch my cholesterol.

I'll go get us mine buttered.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse

I've changed my mind. I hate science.

I'll go get us some snacks.

Well, I'll get it. No, no, I insist.

They're so close.

Where's the unbuttered popcorn?

Unbuttered popcorn?

You're cholesterol.

Remember?

Oh, right.

I paid for it and then left it at the counter. I'll go get it.

Come on, our movie just started.

Punky?

Hi.

Hi, Brian. What's going on?

Not much. But look, we have to get back. Our movie started.

What do you mean, wait?

I'm here with Punky.

No, you're not. I am.

What? You're here with both of us?

It's a complicated story.

Yeah, I'll bet.

And I'll bet there's no Aunt Flo coming in for a Hallmark convention.

You're so smart.

You lied to me. What a dirty stunt.

And all this time I was worried about your cholesterol.

Shall we? Why not?

Ready? Ready!

Let's go catch a movie.

You're on.

I can't believe this. I lost them both.

After this, the movies are going to be a letdown.

Of course, they'll probably never have to worry about that.
