We'll be right back.

We'll be right

back.

To learn all about those things you just can't find.

Two sisters put together.

You are together.

We're gonna find our way.

My new home for the next 12 Friday afternoons.

He must have done something really terrible to deserve this.

Are you kidding? I chose auto shop myself.

Why?

Guys, when we start driving, it's going to cost a lot of money for gas,

insurance, licenses.

And traffic tickets.

That's right.

There won't be any money left for things like tune -ups, oil changes, repairs.

So? So I'm going to learn how to do those things myself.

Oh.

Besides, this class seems like an easy A.

Don't count on it, Sparky.

Mr. Burke, I didn't know you were there.

Well, get used to it. I'm everywhere.

Who are you?

No one.

Me too.

You're not in this class?

No, we're in Glee Club.

Thank you.

It's not too late to switch to Glee Club.

Who wants to sing Row, Row, Row Your Boat every Friday afternoon?

I do.

Especially if they put me next to Alison Galt.

Alison's in Glee Club.

Ah, she's got the lungs for it.

Hi. If you're looking for home ec, it's down the hall.

Yeah, you can't miss it. Just follow your notes with a burning meatloaf.

Thanks, guys, but I think this is where I belong.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Hey, guys, guys, come on. What happened to Glee Club?

I lost my voice.

Me too.

I haven't seen you before.

I just moved here from Florida.

Hey, what a coincidence. I just had orange juice for breakfast.

Had some eggs too, huh?

You got me all right.

My name's Rick Stratton. Holly Benson.

Hey, listen, if you need some help, you let me know, all right? I work on my

dad's engine all the time.

Oh, that's okay. My brother lets me play around with his car.

Washing or waxing it?

Neither, really.

Last week, I installed an aftermarket intake in four -barrel carb. Then I put

headers and a dual exhaust.

But one thing bothers me. The primary and secondary jetting keep missing.

Do you ever have that problem?

Me?

All the time.

What do you do about it?

Well, come on, that's life, right?

Listen, how about going to an auto show with me this weekend?

I'll buy the tickets, I'm great at that.

Sounds like a good deal.

Then it's a date?

Hi.

Barry Gibbons with the school newspaper.

Hi, Cromwell Burke, get out of my class.

We're looking to do a feature article on Auto Shop.

With pictures.

Really?

I'll get my clean shop coat.

Hi, I'm Rick Stratten. If you need some help, you let me know, all right? Aren't

you the Holly that just transferred here from Florida?

Yeah, yeah, she's the one, all right.

And you're taking auto shots? That's right.

And between the two of us, we know everything there is to know about a mere

Wow. Can I get a picture? Sure, sure, no problem. Great.

Look,

I'll tell you what.

Why don't you stand right over here? Right here.

Great. Holly?

Why don't you sit right here?

Oh, wonderful.

Hey, that's my seat.

I don't see your name anywhere.

No, but you're sitting on my oil rag.

Thanks again for a wonderful evening of bridge.

Oh, our pleasure. We always enjoy losing to you and Amelia.

I'm sorry she had to leave so suddenly.

Oh, well, that's what happens when you date a woman doctor.

Thanks, she's a nurse.

Nurse, doctor, what's the difference?

About $100 ,000 a year.

You've got a point.

Anyway, you two have gotten quite good at bridge.

Oh, come on, we're just a couple of duffers compared to you and Amelia.

Nonsense. In fact, we were going to ask you down to the tournament this week.

Us?

Yes. You can watch us play.

Hi, everyone. Hi. Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Stratton. Hi, Holly. Holly, I'd like you

to meet our friend, Dr.

Steffen. Oh, you're the young lady I've been hearing so much about.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Steffen. Likewise.

Well, I have to be running along. Don't forget about the bridge tournament now.

The Eastern Regional?

You know about them? My dad and I won the Miami Mixed Pairs last year.

Well, that's wonderful.

Are you entering this one? No, I wanted to, but Dad can't.

Do you play bridge?

Me? Oh, not really.

But I'm working on this great trip with a deck of cards. You see, you pick, and

then I shuffle it back into the deck. And then you pick out my card.

Gosh, that would make it even better.

I think he's trying to put us on. Anyway, think about the tournament, will

Okay, bye -bye. Bye -bye.

Coffee,

dear? Yeah, I'd love some.

Don't you want it in the kitchen?

No, in here's fine, thank you.

Of course, in the kitchen's finer.

Thank you for coffee.

They're cute.

Don't remind me.

Did you like the movie tonight?

It was great.

You know, most kids think old films like Blow Up are dumb.

Well, not me.

Boy, if that guy's photographs weren't stolen, he was going to follow that

murder. The murder was only an illusion.

It was?

Well, hey, hold on a second. He had pictures of it.

Antonioni was telling us that in the real world, it's impossible to know

true from what's false.

Oh. Well, that must have been when I was out getting the popcorn.

Probably.

Three seconds left.

Strand dribbled. He jumped. He shoots.

He misses.

And Benson grabs the rebound.

Like he saw it.

Right.

Hey, do you play? No, no, I just fool around.

That's great.

Thanks.

You don't play, do you?

Well, I fool around.

Come on over here, then.

You fool around, right?

This high sea is flat.

Well, that's why I never go up there.

That's my dad.

I gotta go.

Well, I'll, uh... See you tomorrow.

She even kisses better than I do.

Coffee's terrific, huh? Isn't it?

Last night, Holly suggested I put some cinnamon in the ground.

Holly leave?

Yeah. I gotta tell you, son, I think Holly is quite a girl.

She is so sweet and talented.

Yeah, well, I wish I could just beat her just once.

Just for a change of pace.

I may be able to help you out.

Dad, I want to beat her alone.

No, no, I'm talking about something you're really good at. And you can beat

daylights out of her.

Edward, I don't believe you.

Ganging up on a little girl?

No, Kate, please, let him finish.

Well, she's from Florida, right?

Yeah. And they don't have much snow there, right?

So she couldn't have done much skiing or ice skating like some whiz kid I know?

Dad, you're a genius. You're almost as smart as Holly.

Hey, I'll think of ice skating down at Miller's Pond.

I'm surprised you didn't suggest boxing.

Well, let's see if the ice skating works first.

Ah, that was a delicious dinner, if I do say so myself.

It was nice.

I think I kind of like this system.

One evening you get dinner ready, and next evening it's my turn. I don't think

tonight should count.

Why not?

Because it isn't fair. When it's a woman's turn, she cooks. And when it's a

man's turn, it's take -out Chinese.

I carried it in, didn't I?

Hill?

Hi.

Is he all right?

Edward, what is it?

Rick fell through the ice at Miller's Pond.

It's even worse than that. Holly jumped in and saved him.

Please, there's no time for small talk.

Amelia's come down with the flu.

That's the trouble with nurses, always hanging around with sick people.

That's why I'm here. I'm going to need a new bridge partner.

Oh, gee, this is so sudden.

But I have been practicing.

Practicing what?

I don't think Dexter had you in mind.

Listen, I've got to get in touch with Holly right away, Edwards.

Holly? Yes.

I was going to suggest Holly.

I'll get her number for you. Thank you.

Listen, around Rick, do not mention Holly's name.

Oh, don't tell me they're brooding over his rescue from the Black Lagoon.

My lips are sealed.

You know, there's still time for you two to enter the tournament.

Oh, I don't know, Dave. Oh, come on, Edward.

There's all sorts of categories.

Junior, senior, golden age, handicapped. I mean, I'm sure you and Kate could fit

in somewhere.

Thanks a heap.

Here you go. Ah, thanks, Keith.

Well, I'll go call Holly right now. Whatever happens, seal with peace.

I think I left them in the car. Sure.

All ready for dinner?

No, Dad, I'm not hungry.

Pizza will be here in a few minutes.

Your turn to cook again, huh?

Rick, you haven't eaten for a couple of days.

Don't you think you should try something?

I was thinking about jumping off a roof, but it's not high enough.

Aren't you exaggerating? Hey, Kate, it's high enough. I'm afraid of height.

Oh, come on, Ray.

Nobody knows about the incident at Miller's Pond.

Yeah, Dad, but I know.

Pizza.

Hey, I know you.

I saw some girl dragging you out of Miller's Pond.

I guess the moping's over, huh?

Must be the new girl he's been seeing.

Oh, that reminds me. Did you tell him that Holly was going out with us

No, didn't you?

No. Oh, you better tell him right away.

Okay. Hey, you guys look great.

I bet you two will be the best dressed in the whole tournament.

It's too bad I'm going to miss it, you know. Yeah, well, you're lost.

Listen, Ray, about Holly.

Please, Dad, I'm in a good mood.

No, no, you don't understand.

I got it.

Holly, um, what are you doing here? Well, your folks are giving me a ride to

tournament.

They are?

I think I hear Kate calling. Yeah, honey, yeah!

I brought you some brownies.

Great. Try one.

Thanks a lot.

I don't believe this.

What? You even know the best place to buy brownies.

These are great.

I didn't buy them. I made them.

Of course.

How stupid of me, right?

I haven't seen you for a few days.

Yeah, well, you know, I've been busy doing stuff.

I've missed you.

Why?

Haven't you found anyone else to pull out of a lake?

Rick, that's what I like about you. You have such a great sense of humor.

You know, most guys wouldn't have been able to handle getting saved by a girl,

but you're different.

Thanks.

So, come on in now. What's been doing the past few days?

Aren't you going to get that?

Oh, no, no. It's just those kids, you know, playing ring and run. We've

to ignore them.

Hey, Rick, would you answer that?

Dad, come on. It's just those little kids again.

What kids?

Rick, I'll get it. No.

Is Rick home?

Hi, Allison.

Yeah, yeah.

Holly Benson, this is Allison Galt.

Nice to meet you, Allison.

Tell your folks I'll wait for them in the car.

I still can't believe we're going to my favorite movie of all time.

A real classic.

Huh?

Imagine, right here in our hometown, the original Porky's.

Listen, um, we should go. You know, we don't want to be late.

You're so decisive.

I love a take -charge kind of guy.

Are those brownies?

Yeah. Have one if you want.

Have them all.

These are the best -tasting brownies I've ever had in my life.

I know.

I think we should open up a bottle of champagne.

No, it just doesn't seem right to celebrate without Holly.

Well, next time, pick a partner who can stay out past ten.

I have never seen anyone play bridge like that. She was incredible.

Well, hey, how about us? We weren't exactly chopped liver.

Ah, yes.

Fifth place, amateur class, non -smoking division.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Well, forget the champagne. I'll just make some plain old coffee instead.

Yeah, in teeny weeny cups like yours.

Hi, Rick. Want to see my British trophy? Yeah, sure, Dexter. Real nice.

Bad date with Allison?

Dad, the worst.

She laughed at all my jokes, told me I was smart, funny, clever, didn't

with anything that I said.

She made me feel important.

It's things like that that give women a bad name.

It was boring, huh?

Dad, I would have settled for boring.

I kept nodding off.

Dad, it was never like that with Holly because I always had fun with her.

God, she's great and terrific.

Dad, she's more than that. She's neat.

Hello, Holly, it's Rick.

Hello?

Dad, cheer him up.

Women always get like that when they're angry. Yeah, you just have to know how

to talk to her.

Right.

Hello, Holly, Rick.

Hello?

Of course, first they have to listen.

This is great. Just great.

I wouldn't be a teenager again for all the money in the world.

Don't be too hasty. You did it for nothing last time.

Hey there, stranger.

Fancy meeting you again.

Thank you.

Stratton, this is auto shop, not the dating game.

Come on, Holly, just give me one more chance.

Please?

Look, at least think about it.

Why should I think about it? I've been thinking about it for three days.

You know, when that girl showed up at your house, that really hurt.

I said I was a jerk.

You really are a jerk.

Was. Was a jerk.

Here you go, guys. Hot off the present.

This week's bullseye.

Why don't you do that on your own time?

Your picture's in here. Okay, hand them out.

Hey, how's it going?

What? Thanks for the scoop.

What's he talking about?

What? Goose.

New girl rescue student.

This is about how I pulled you out of the ice.

And saved my life, too.

I don't understand. Everyone can see this.

I know.

I'm too afraid of what the guys are going to think.

I only care about what you think.

save you.

Those guys.

Okay, one more chance.

Really? Really.

What do you want to do? You name it. Movies, golf, tennis.

Oh, not tennis. I don't know how to play.

You don't?

Well, no kidding.

You see, neither do I. What do you say we kind of learn together?

Who won all the tennis trophies I saw in your house?

Uh, the kid who lived there before me.

We'll go to a movie.

Hey, my picture isn't in here.

My son left his term paper at home. He doesn't want to flunk.

Dominic, your dad's here.

Wrong kid.

He's got your eyes.

Ha! You'll excuse me.

Rick brought your term paper.

Thanks, Dad.

Man, you're a life favor.

Yeah, seems to be the season for it.

Is this the engine you're working on? Yeah. I've got this puppy purring like a

kitten. Ah.

That sounds quite right.

I think you've got a clamp loose somewhere there. Turn it off, Rick.

Dad, come on. Don't touch it. Oh, that's all right. This used to happen to me

all the time. Turn it off.

Dad, come on.

Ah, almost got it.

There you go.

Okay. Right now.

There goes my aunt.
