Okay, Mrs. H, are you ready for a healthy breakfast? I got egg white,

wheat toast, an assortment of fruit.

You're going to love this. This is really good to lower your cholesterol.

Let's all... Action!

You like donuts? Donuts are good.

Mom, I can't go to school.

I'm sick.

Oh, honey.

Wow.

120.

Yeah, that is high.

Wow, that sounds serious. You know, we better double check.

Okay, Jake.

Bend over.

Hey, guys.

Cheyenne still here? You didn't tell her about the internship, did you? No, no,

I was waiting on you and Barbara Jean.

Where's Barbara Jean?

Oh, don't tell me.

The circus came and recaptured her.

No, she's getting ready for jury duty.

Oh, man, it's too bad Barbara Jean is going to miss the look on Cheyenne's

when you ask her to intern at your office. I think it's going to be like

Or this, or this.

Or a combination of the two, and Miss USA wins, like, the award, and she's all

happy, and then sad.

Oh,

y 'all, you're shouting.

Hi, sweetie.

Hi, hottie. What's going on? Tell her, Brock. Well, we all know how important

internship is for dental school, so here's the thing.

How would you like to intern at my office?

Honey?

Why am I the only one making this face?

What's the matter, Cheyenne? Aren't you excited?

Well, I'm not sure that I'm going to have time for an internship.

Why not?

Well, I've been spending a lot of time volunteering down at the senior center.

Well, what do you think an internship is? I wasn't going to pay you.

Yeah, about that. I'm not sure that I want to be a dentist anymore.

What? Wait, wait, I got a face for that.

What do you mean you don't want

to be a dentist?

Well, becoming a dentist just seems like something you do to just make money.

And I kind of think that I might want to help people instead.

Oh, you don't think dentists help people?

Guess it's time to show you the gingivitis video again.

I have to take my wife to jury duty.

And after that, I am going to go to the office, where I will help people fight

deadly gum disease.

And win!

Cheyenne, you're springing a lot on everybody here. What is going on in that

pretty head of yours, woman?

Okay, I was on my way home from another boring day at school where I spent hours

studying biology, and I thought to myself, What does that have to do with

So I was driving, and this old lady in a walker just darted out in front of me.

So I hung up the phone, and I thought to myself, somebody has got to do

something about these old people.

I think nature takes care of that, honey.

Okay, look, well, I walked her home to the center, and the whole place was just

crawling with them.

And I looked at their faces, and all of a sudden, I just, I knew that there was

something that I could do.

But, honey, giving up on dentistry after all the work that you've put into it

seems a little impulsive. Yeah, what happened to our 10 -year plan where we

and save enough money to afford our own place?

10 -year?

about money van look after we help those people who are in the hurricane i

realized why people do it it felt really good i think that maybe this is what

i'm meant to do wow sounds like you really mean it did you

just cough baloney yeah i might have caught something when you were off

our lives i'm her husband and you do not make decisions like this alone

and storm off. Well, you know I'm not storming off.

I'm going to stand my ground and forbid you from making this knuckle -headed

decision to help old people.

Fine, Van.

Well, I have important work to do, so I'm storming off. Oh, yeah? Well, you

storm off like a girl.

What are you doing? Trying to save our future.

Well, you're going about it all wrong. What she's doing is crazy. We need to

stop her.

Which is why we're going to go down to the center and see what she's up to.

Either what she's doing is a really good thing or it's silly and pointless.

Then we'll calmly talk her out of it. All right, fine.

But don't expect me to be all miss you a day. No, it's not going to happen.

Thanks for walking me to my jury service, honey.

Yeah, well, if you wind up getting sequestered, I just want the guys here

know that you're taken.

I love it that you're so jealous.

Wouldn't it be great if some guy looked at me and then you beat him with a chair

and then I was on your jury?

Yeah, that'd be great. Listen, Barbara Jean... Uh -uh -uh.

Call me by my number.

Barbara Jean, I'm not going to... Not hearing you.

Okay, juror number 1536. Listen, during selection, it's important that you say

the right thing to get out of being put on a jury.

But I want to serve.

Come on, Barbara Jean. The guy's on trial for stealing a garden gnome.

You're not supposed to know that. Now, shoo.

Who's going to prison?

Excuse me.

Thank you all for coming.

This is so exciting.

I hope I get picked.

I wore my lucky bra.

Juror number 1322.

Did you say 1536?

No.

Juror number... 1536?

Let me say it.

Juror number 1242.

Oh, I hate my stupid number.

What number you got? Juror number 1289.

Oh, that's your number.

Switch with me. Come on.

1289, that's me, that's me.

I thought you were 1536.

No, this loser's 1536.

If anybody asks why we're here, we're signing you up for a ceramics class.

What?

We're signing you up for ceramics class, Grandma.

Man,

we don't have to sneak in here.

Cheyenne's expecting us.

Hey, guys.

Thanks for calling.

Man, I can't wait to see what would make someone give up the dental dream.

Oh, Brock, get off your high horse. You're just a glorified toothbrush.

Man, I hate places like this.

Reminds me how one day I'll be old.

One day?

Ha ha, you're gonna be old one day too, Van. Let's see who's laughing then.

Well, it won't be you, because you'll be dead.

Come on, guys.

Let's knock it off.

Oh.

As I live and breathe.

Aerosmith!

Hi,

can I help you? Oh, yes. We're here to see Cheyenne, my daughter. She says

been volunteering here. Oh, you're here to take her home.

Oh, no, no, no.

No, no, no.

No, we're just, we just come down to see what she's up to. Oh.

And then you'll take her home? Oh.

Oh, hey, guys. I'm so glad you're here.

Yeah, we're so excited. We're here to be supportive and not push you in any one

direction.

Okay,

you guys, I've got to show you some of the work that I've been doing. You are

going to be so proud.

I'm sure we will, honey.

Look, we need to keep an open mind. There's a very good possibility that

can be doing something very meaningful with her life here.

Lawrence, Ida, ladies.

Now will you take her home?

Lovely, lovely.

See, Florence Fleming.

Oh, and Ida, that lipstick is really going to show off your teeth once you

them in.

Van, Van, check it out.

That nice old lady's got work in it on her butt.

You don't think she's got a thong under there, do you?

Cheyenne has been giving them makeovers from top to saggy bottom.

Do the ladies like this?

Oh, yeah, they like it, and the men like it, and I hate it.

Two weeks ago, someone would yell, bingo, and they'd all have tea and take

and I had the afternoon off.

And now Cheyenne gets them all dolled up, and it's like Granny's gone wild

around here.

Excuse me one second. Dickie, no!

No, Dickie, no!

No, Dickie.

You turn.

No, Dickie.

So, what do you think?

Yeah, Reba, what do we think?

Well, we think that it's... That's so great. You should have seen them before

got here.

I really feel like I found my calling. I don't know how to describe the feeling

other than it's just... It's stupid.

It's the dumbest thing ever.

No, wait, I take that back. You giving up dentistry to do this is the dumbest

thing ever.

going to be giving a seminar on waterproof mascara.

Meet me in the sunroom.

And then we moved to Lubbock, which was tough on my family, but it didn't matter

because I still made the volleyball team, and we went 11 -0, which is how I

the nickname White Thunder.

So, in answer to the question, have you ever been accused of committing a crime,

the answer would be no.

Yes.

Although, I was accused of stealing the show in the school play.

I would tell you. Ms. Hart.

If you're trying to get out of your jury duty by being annoying, it's not going

to work.

But that's not what I'm trying to do.

Your Honor, I want nothing more than to serve on this jury.

I am a huge John Grisham fan, and I've seen every episode of Law & Order, and

favorite part is the order.

Okay.

Now I would like to ask a question to any other juror.

Request a sidebar. What? Your Honor, you said if we had anything personal to

discuss, we could request a sidebar? Oh, no, no, no. Oh, now I regret saying

that. I regret my whole career choice.

Approach the bench.

What?

Nothing. I just always wanted to be involved in a sidebar.

Miss Hart.

Uh -uh -uh.

Call me by my number.

Remember what I told you earlier about being annoying would not get you

dismissed from service? Yes. I'm changing my mind.

What? No, you can't do that. I thought justice was blind.

Yeah, but unfortunately it's not death.

You win. You are dismissed from service.

But I don't want to go.

Bailiff Ron.

You better watch it, mister.

You know what? This jury will be nothing without me.

My boob just popped out of my lucky bra.

Cheyenne hasn't made it back yet?

No, she's probably setting up a wet shawl contest by now.

Look, Ben, I know what Cheyenne's doing over there is kind of... Ridiculous.

Laughable. Insane.

Yeah. But you have to admit that it'd make those little old ladies pretty

Hi, Mom. Hey.

You don't get a high.

Oh, look, Mrs. H. It's Mother Teresa with lip gloss.

Aw.

Clever, Van. But just for your information, Mother Teresa knew nothing

makeup. Really?

What a loser.

Come on, guys.

But Cheyenne, we do have to talk about what you're going to do before you make

any big decisions.

Oh, I already made my decision.

To do what?

Right working it on old lady's butts?

That's a great idea.

It's a great idea.

You can have a whole series of inspirational butt sayings.

Eventually, I want to be a drug and alcohol counselor.

I was only doing it to see if I liked helping people, and I do.

But, Cheyenne, why did you have to pick something so insane?

Man. Wait, I didn't pick it. The ladies did.

I was down there talking to them, and they were telling me how long it's been

since they felt pretty.

They asked me to do it.

Oh. But honey, being a drug counselor, you're going to have to have a lot of

training for that. No, I know.

I know. And if I change my major to social work now, I can still graduate in

and a half years.

Do you know that for a fact?

Yes. I already planned it out with my counselor.

Oh, terrific.

You're getting advice from the school counselor. Do you see the cars they

So wait a minute.

You've actually thought this out? Yes, I have.

Well, Van, we may have to face the fact that Cheyenne has changed.

Yeah, don't you think I know she's changed? Well, guess what? I liked her

way she was. Hot and ditzy.

I was never ditzy, Van.

I mean, what does ditzy even mean?

Okay.

All right.

Listen to me, both of you.

I'm going to give you the secret to a long marriage.

You?

Well, forgive me, Mrs. H., but I find that slightly ironic.

I thought you might say that.

But I am the person to learn this from.

See, Brock and I had to learn it the hard way.

People change.

They grow.

But if the people grow and the marriage doesn't, that's when you sprout a Barb

regime.

It is so cool that the tragedy that is your life can help others.

Right back at you.

Now, I'll leave and let you two talk.

So, you feel better now that you know I actually fought it through?

No, I feel worse.

Where was I during this big process, Cheyenne? When were you going to allow

in the loop?

Well, I was definitely going to tell you, Van. I just, I wanted to be sure.

Look, I've been going through a lot of changes lately. I know, and these

are taking you farther and farther away from me. You talk to everybody about

your problems at your meetings. You talk to your school counselor about your

future.

What is there left for you to talk to me about?

Where do I fit in?

Dan, I'm sorry.

But I'm really happy with my decision.

Look, for me, it's about that.

I want to become a better person.

But for me, it's about this.

What if this better person doesn't want me?

I think I soiled myself.

Okay.

Van, it's your 80th birthday today.

You know what you want for a present?

Oh, Van.

Don't you ever want anything else?

You're the one who's got work in it on your butt.

today and that means you're old you're an old man and I'm alive to see it

so who's laughing now oh

crap

did

you see that father

Miserable old toot got what he deserved.
