1
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:12,370
believe you. Every morning you turn this
place into a cosmetic counter.

2
00:00:12,710 --> 00:00:15,870
You know I can't put on makeup at home.
My mom would kill me.

3
00:00:16,770 --> 00:00:17,990
Makeup's your biggest problem?

4
00:00:18,610 --> 00:00:21,550
Trust me, it takes a lot of hard work to
be a natural beauty.

5
00:00:22,490 --> 00:00:24,510
Boy, must be easy being you.

6
00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:27,570
Okay, Mickey, what's your problem?

7
00:00:28,810 --> 00:00:29,910
Parent -teacher week.

8
00:00:30,370 --> 00:00:31,370
The parent part.

9
00:00:31,690 --> 00:00:35,270
What are you worried about? You're doing
great. Not great enough.

10
00:00:35,980 --> 00:00:39,000
You know what my parents are going to
say when they find out I'm only living

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,000
to my potential?

12
00:00:40,060 --> 00:00:42,520
They'll say how proud they are of you.

13
00:00:43,180 --> 00:00:45,460
That's what they'll say, but that's not
what they'll mean.

14
00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:47,500
You're nuts, you know that?

15
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,600
Maybe I should see a shrink.

16
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,000
And if that doesn't work, go shopping.

17
00:01:03,460 --> 00:01:06,260
Bye. Bye.

18
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,020
Bye. Bye.

19
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:14,800
Bye.

20
00:01:46,250 --> 00:01:51,250
It's all right, because I'm saved by the
bill. It's all right, because I'm saved

21
00:01:51,250 --> 00:01:55,130
by the bill. It's all right, because I'm
saved by the bill.

22
00:01:58,090 --> 00:02:02,390
Parent Teacher Week reminds me of an
anxiety -filled show and tell.

23
00:02:02,830 --> 00:02:07,230
Parents hoping to hear the best,
students expecting the worst, and the

24
00:02:07,230 --> 00:02:11,690
having to place the truth somewhere in
between. I mean, how do you tell parents

25
00:02:11,690 --> 00:02:14,450
their child is best qualified to be a
speed bump?

26
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,560
Tickets to the Hot Lead concert go on
sale Thursday morning.

27
00:02:22,020 --> 00:02:24,480
But we're not going to get any, because
Thursday's the school day.

28
00:02:25,460 --> 00:02:29,600
Well, that shouldn't be a problem. You
said that ever since your parents got

29
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,500
divorced, your dad would do anything for
you. Well, can you believe it? He won't

30
00:02:33,500 --> 00:02:36,700
write me any more doctor's excuses
unless I actually go to the doctor.

31
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,840
That's sick.

32
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,280
Hi. Hi.

33
00:02:44,820 --> 00:02:47,420
So, tell me about your rafting trip. Did
you meet anybody?

34
00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:51,330
Well, actually, I met the most wonderful
man while clinging to a rock.

35
00:02:51,970 --> 00:02:53,630
How exciting. What's his name?

36
00:02:54,250 --> 00:02:55,330
Peter. Peter what?

37
00:02:55,550 --> 00:02:56,990
I don't know. Well, what does he do?

38
00:02:57,210 --> 00:02:58,650
I don't know. Where does he live?

39
00:02:58,950 --> 00:02:59,950
I don't know.

40
00:03:00,050 --> 00:03:01,870
Well, I certainly see why you like the
guy.

41
00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:04,250
No, it was the rules of the weekend.

42
00:03:04,610 --> 00:03:07,850
No last names, no past, no present.
Sounds like no future.

43
00:03:08,850 --> 00:03:10,490
But we did exchange phone numbers.

44
00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:12,030
Why, he could be anybody.

45
00:03:12,310 --> 00:03:14,370
A captain of industry, a famous surgeon.

46
00:03:14,710 --> 00:03:15,710
Or Freddy Krueger.

47
00:03:16,170 --> 00:03:19,480
Exactly. That's why I told him my name
was Tina Palladrino.

48
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,000
I am not going out with any man whose
nails are longer than mine.

49
00:03:26,860 --> 00:03:28,040
Good morning, Mr. Bell.

50
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,000
My, aren't you cheery this morning? I
am. And you should be, too. It's the

51
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,400
of Parent Teacher Week.

52
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:36,680
Wonderful, wonderful.

53
00:03:36,700 --> 00:03:37,820
It's my favorite time of year.

54
00:03:38,180 --> 00:03:39,660
Oh, it's always a lot of fun.

55
00:03:39,980 --> 00:03:41,480
Maybe for you. Everyone loves you.

56
00:03:42,519 --> 00:03:46,040
Mr. Belding, you're the principal, the
man everyone looks up to.

57
00:03:46,300 --> 00:03:48,060
Don't sweet -talk me. I'm a hated man.

58
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,040
That's silly.

59
00:03:50,340 --> 00:03:52,600
They respect you. No, they don't.

60
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,560
I am the man they were sent to when they
were children, and they have never

61
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,840
forgotten it. Nobody wants to talk to
me.

62
00:04:03,980 --> 00:04:06,120
Hey, Zach, something's wrong with
Screech.

63
00:04:06,620 --> 00:04:09,740
Mikey, you've known him for eight years,
and you just figured that out? No,

64
00:04:09,980 --> 00:04:11,320
something's really wrong.

65
00:04:11,870 --> 00:04:12,870
Look at him.

66
00:04:14,610 --> 00:04:16,190
Okay, I'll cheer him up.

67
00:04:17,649 --> 00:04:21,910
Hey, Screech, have you heard? At exactly
two o 'clock today, a shower of

68
00:04:21,910 --> 00:04:23,270
asteroids is going to level Cleveland.

69
00:04:23,910 --> 00:04:25,230
Fine, I'll wear a helmet.

70
00:04:27,330 --> 00:04:28,330
Right, Mikey.

71
00:04:28,350 --> 00:04:29,410
He is strange.

72
00:04:29,750 --> 00:04:30,910
Even for Screech.

73
00:04:34,010 --> 00:04:35,190
Is something wrong, Lisa?

74
00:04:35,690 --> 00:04:37,270
No, something's not wrong.

75
00:04:37,630 --> 00:04:38,630
Everything's wrong.

76
00:04:38,690 --> 00:04:40,230
I wore makeup at school.

77
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,680
I know you do. You look lovely.

78
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,000
But you don't understand. My parents
will kill me if they find out I wear

79
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,880
makeup. What makeup?

80
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,060
Bless you, Miss Bliss.

81
00:04:53,260 --> 00:04:54,260
Okay, everyone.

82
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:55,679
Settle down.

83
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:56,680
Settle down.

84
00:04:57,220 --> 00:05:02,540
Now, today is the start of a very
special week.

85
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,980
And I'm really looking forward to
meeting all your parents.

86
00:05:06,220 --> 00:05:08,080
Uh, Miss Bliss, my mom can't come.

87
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,160
Okay, class.

88
00:05:10,510 --> 00:05:12,050
I think we're in for a treat here.

89
00:05:12,390 --> 00:05:13,710
Why is that, Zach?

90
00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:15,530
She went out of town.

91
00:05:16,570 --> 00:05:17,549
That's it?

92
00:05:17,550 --> 00:05:18,489
That's it.

93
00:05:18,490 --> 00:05:19,950
See, but my dad will be here.

94
00:05:20,350 --> 00:05:22,770
He's got a very serious medical
condition.

95
00:05:23,170 --> 00:05:27,950
The doctors are fearful of any sudden
shocks, so just trash me at your own

96
00:05:29,910 --> 00:05:31,230
Now that's our Zach.

97
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:40,280
descending on the grand concourse of the
facility.

98
00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:43,680
This is the hub, the very heartbeat of
JFK.

99
00:05:43,940 --> 00:05:46,280
Those of us in the trade call it the
lobby.

100
00:05:48,300 --> 00:05:52,720
To the right, we have the lockers. To
the left, Mr. Belding.

101
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,700
Hello, I'm the principal.

102
00:05:58,780 --> 00:06:00,660
I see you still haven't lost your touch.

103
00:06:05,870 --> 00:06:09,510
It was a pleasure meeting you, Mrs.
Wertmann. It's obvious who Cindy

104
00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:10,730
her personality from.

105
00:06:15,570 --> 00:06:17,090
Obviously from her father.

106
00:06:20,150 --> 00:06:21,150
Peter.

107
00:06:22,890 --> 00:06:28,770
Carrie. What are you doing here? How did
you find me? Well, I didn't find you. I

108
00:06:28,770 --> 00:06:31,530
mean, obviously I have, but I'm looking
for a Miss Bliss.

109
00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:34,090
Well, you find her.

110
00:06:34,540 --> 00:06:35,439
I'm a teacher.

111
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,440
Surprised? Yes, delightfully.

112
00:06:39,460 --> 00:06:41,980
And I've got a surprise for you.

113
00:06:42,220 --> 00:06:44,400
I'm Peter Morris, Zack's dad.

114
00:06:45,500 --> 00:06:46,500
What?

115
00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:48,540
Oh, no.

116
00:06:49,540 --> 00:06:51,560
No, just tell me you're joking.

117
00:06:51,980 --> 00:06:53,680
All right, I'm joking.

118
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,120
I'm his brother.

119
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,380
Peter, please, serious.

120
00:06:58,700 --> 00:07:01,220
Don't make it any more difficult than it
already is.

121
00:07:01,580 --> 00:07:05,560
Hey, what happened to the girl who fell
overboard with me?

122
00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:08,440
She's treading water as fast as she can.

123
00:07:08,780 --> 00:07:13,500
Listen, if you think Zach would mind us
seeing each other, he won't. He's seen

124
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:16,060
me date other women. Well, not a lot of
them.

125
00:07:16,380 --> 00:07:20,420
Actually, just one. We are not even
going to discuss this.

126
00:07:21,340 --> 00:07:24,340
We're going to discuss parent -teacher
things.

127
00:07:25,220 --> 00:07:26,540
All right, all right.

128
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,920
You win.

129
00:07:28,940 --> 00:07:35,000
Of all my students, Zach has the most
potential, but... I know, I know. He has

130
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,660
no built -in boundaries, discipline, or
restraint. Would you like to go out to

131
00:07:40,660 --> 00:07:41,660
dinner with me?

132
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,080
Yes.

133
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,160
I mean, no. We're here to discuss your
son.

134
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,180
You are just like Zach.

135
00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:55,860
Well, I should be. After all, I am his
brother.

136
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,140
And I'm his teacher.

137
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,400
And I'm being serious.

138
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,780
And I can't go out with you.

139
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,380
I really am sorry.

140
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:14,640
Hi.

141
00:08:14,980 --> 00:08:16,280
What's this?

142
00:08:17,220 --> 00:08:21,340
Well, my parents are coming tonight. And
I know how boring it must be to talk

143
00:08:21,340 --> 00:08:24,380
about the same old things. So you
prepared a list of topics.

144
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,300
How considerate.

145
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,400
Colliery's theory of nocturnal
polarization.

146
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,220
Yeah, they're real gravity freaks.

147
00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:36,299
Okay, spill it.

148
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,720
I told my parents I was president of the
eighth grade.

149
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,980
Samuel. It gets worse. I'm editor of the
newspaper, captain of the baseball

150
00:08:45,980 --> 00:08:48,420
team, and lead baritone in the glee
club.

151
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,400
Is that all?

152
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,440
Did I mention homecoming, King?

153
00:08:55,820 --> 00:08:57,780
Why tell parents? Why?

154
00:08:58,510 --> 00:08:59,850
You don't know what it's like, Miss
Bliss.

155
00:09:00,170 --> 00:09:02,510
I can't let my parents think their son's
a dud.

156
00:09:02,810 --> 00:09:04,550
You are not a dud.

157
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:06,890
But what you've always been is truthful.

158
00:09:07,590 --> 00:09:10,830
But I can't tell them the only position
I've held is glue monitor.

159
00:09:11,830 --> 00:09:12,830
Glue monitor?

160
00:09:13,230 --> 00:09:15,670
Believe me, it's not as glamorous as it
sounds.

161
00:09:16,690 --> 00:09:19,990
Your parents love you, Samuel, and you
must tell them the truth.

162
00:09:22,070 --> 00:09:26,290
Okay, Miss Bliss. But when they find out
I'm a tenor, it'll break their hearts.

163
00:09:34,230 --> 00:09:36,030
Peter, what are you doing here?

164
00:09:36,330 --> 00:09:37,350
I came to pick up Zach.

165
00:09:38,310 --> 00:09:40,370
Well, you'll find him on the athletic
field.

166
00:09:40,810 --> 00:09:41,810
I know.

167
00:09:42,270 --> 00:09:43,610
That's why I came here.

168
00:09:45,150 --> 00:09:48,530
Peter, didn't you hear anything I said
last night?

169
00:09:48,790 --> 00:09:49,790
Every word.

170
00:09:50,290 --> 00:09:54,670
I told you nothing would have ever
started if I'd known you were Zach's

171
00:09:54,790 --> 00:09:55,850
Well, it's too late.

172
00:09:57,450 --> 00:09:58,750
It's already started.

173
00:09:59,010 --> 00:10:00,370
No, no, Peter.

174
00:10:16,170 --> 00:10:17,149
Let me explain.

175
00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:19,470
You see... Zach, this is not what it
appears to be.

176
00:10:19,730 --> 00:10:21,530
You mean you weren't kissing?

177
00:10:21,750 --> 00:10:22,750
No. No.

178
00:10:22,910 --> 00:10:24,910
We were kissing.

179
00:10:26,850 --> 00:10:30,610
Dad, I know you want to make a good
impression on my teachers, but you don't

180
00:10:30,610 --> 00:10:31,790
have to kiss all of them.

181
00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:33,830
Not all of them. Just Miss Bliss.

182
00:10:34,190 --> 00:10:35,190
Well, good thing.

183
00:10:35,250 --> 00:10:37,610
Coach Porius is really ugly.

184
00:10:39,090 --> 00:10:43,350
Zach, this is not what you think. We met
last weekend on the rafting trip.

185
00:10:44,130 --> 00:10:45,130
Great.

186
00:10:45,580 --> 00:10:46,760
Hey, Dad, are we still going out for
burgers?

187
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,640
Zach, are you okay about this? Yeah,
sure.

188
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:51,900
Why wouldn't I be?

189
00:10:51,980 --> 00:10:52,980
Everything's fine.

190
00:10:53,580 --> 00:10:54,720
Adults get so uptight.

191
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,040
Oh, I'm not uptight.

192
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,340
Are you uptight? No, no, I'm not
uptight. See, we're not uptight.

193
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,000
I was just going to ask Miss Bliss if
she wanted to come to dinner with us.

194
00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:07,940
no, no, no, thank you. Oh, come on,
it'll be fun.

195
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:10,700
Zach? Yeah, sure.

196
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,680
Then I walked in.

197
00:11:15,150 --> 00:11:16,970
and saw them kissing.

198
00:11:17,710 --> 00:11:19,790
It was like someone punched me in my
stomach.

199
00:11:20,030 --> 00:11:21,870
I couldn't breathe. It was like the
worst.

200
00:11:22,370 --> 00:11:23,370
Wow.

201
00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:26,430
Your dad and Miss Bliss.

202
00:11:27,270 --> 00:11:29,810
How would you feel if you saw your dad
kiss your teacher?

203
00:11:30,390 --> 00:11:31,410
I'd love it.

204
00:11:31,710 --> 00:11:34,370
He'd have to pay me a fortune not to
tell my mom.

205
00:11:36,210 --> 00:11:39,770
You know, my dad's going to date my
teacher.

206
00:11:40,770 --> 00:11:42,010
It's going to cost him.

207
00:11:42,230 --> 00:11:43,390
What are you talking about?

208
00:11:44,530 --> 00:11:46,470
We're going to the Hot Lead concert.

209
00:11:47,050 --> 00:11:49,850
Well, how are we going to cut school to
get the tickets?

210
00:11:50,130 --> 00:11:51,890
Hey, don't worry about it.

211
00:11:52,650 --> 00:11:55,150
It's between me and Carrie.

212
00:11:56,090 --> 00:11:59,490
Carrie? Since when do you call Miss
Bliss Carrie?

213
00:12:00,110 --> 00:12:02,410
Since I caught them making out in
homeroom.

214
00:12:06,730 --> 00:12:07,730
Oh,

215
00:12:11,730 --> 00:12:12,730
Samuel.

216
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,020
Now, I saw your parents last night. I'm
glad you told them the truth.

217
00:12:17,380 --> 00:12:18,740
Can you believe it, Miss Bliss?

218
00:12:19,060 --> 00:12:20,520
They just want me to be me.

219
00:12:20,820 --> 00:12:22,500
I knew they'd react that way.

220
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:25,820
And get this. My dad told me he was Blue
Monitor, too.

221
00:12:26,420 --> 00:12:28,000
That's how he got stuck on my mom.

222
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,460
Well, I'm glad everything turned out all
right.

223
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,120
Thanks, Miss Bliss.

224
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:34,640
You're a real pal.

225
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:40,700
If you ever want anything, mice,
hamsters, gerbils, anything at all, just

226
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:42,180
Thank you, Samuel.

227
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,760
If I ever need a rodent, you're my man.

228
00:12:48,100 --> 00:12:49,100
Okay, everyone.

229
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,220
Pass your homework to the front, please.

230
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:52,720
Watch this move.

231
00:12:53,260 --> 00:12:55,920
Miss Bliss, I'm sorry, but I didn't get
a chance to do my homework.

232
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,340
This is great. You did me.

233
00:12:58,740 --> 00:13:00,340
The truth is, I was up late.

234
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,680
Zach, that is no excuse.

235
00:13:03,180 --> 00:13:06,920
Well, I was talking things out with my
dad, if you know what I mean.

236
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:08,700
She'll never buy that.

237
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,720
Okay, I understand, Zach.

238
00:13:12,140 --> 00:13:13,140
Add it in tomorrow.

239
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,040
What have you done to Miss Bliss?

240
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:19,660
You've got to be kidding me.

241
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,900
How's it going, Mr. Belding? Oh, hello,
Miss Bliss. I want you to know that I

242
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:29,960
took your advice, I extended myself, and
I had a very pleasant talk with several

243
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,160
of the parents. Oh, good.

244
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:32,560
I knew it would work.

245
00:13:33,340 --> 00:13:36,060
Of course, he didn't exactly tell them
who he was.

246
00:13:36,820 --> 00:13:39,760
I was going to tell them, but...

247
00:13:40,110 --> 00:13:41,870
They started telling principal jokes.

248
00:13:43,190 --> 00:13:44,330
So what did you do?

249
00:13:44,630 --> 00:13:46,850
What could I do? I told a couple of
zingers, too.

250
00:13:48,750 --> 00:13:50,590
Actually, a couple of them weren't too
bad.

251
00:13:50,950 --> 00:13:53,270
Especially the one about the principal
and Gumby.

252
00:13:53,790 --> 00:13:55,170
You see, Gumby... Milo!

253
00:13:58,390 --> 00:14:01,210
You're absolutely right. It is rather
inappropriate.

254
00:14:02,410 --> 00:14:04,250
Oh, come on. What was the joke?

255
00:14:04,750 --> 00:14:07,190
It's a side of pokey I'd rather not
discuss.

256
00:14:09,339 --> 00:14:11,880
Mr. Belding, I need your advice.

257
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,139
Oh, good.

258
00:14:13,140 --> 00:14:14,140
About school?

259
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,860
No. Well, sort of, but not really.

260
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,060
Well, it's either about school or it's
personal. It can't be about both.

261
00:14:21,260 --> 00:14:22,260
Well, it is.

262
00:14:22,660 --> 00:14:26,640
You see, last weekend I met this man and
I thought he was someone else. I mean,

263
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,360
other than who I thought he was.

264
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:30,960
What was he, a spy?

265
00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:37,940
No, he was... He is sort of... sort of
related to one of my students.

266
00:14:38,430 --> 00:14:40,490
Well, who is he? Zach Morris' father?

267
00:14:44,050 --> 00:14:45,050
Oh, boy.

268
00:14:47,170 --> 00:14:49,890
If you'd rather not talk about this, I
understand.

269
00:14:50,190 --> 00:14:54,990
No, no, no. I don't mind talking about
it. I'm not dating a student's father or

270
00:14:54,990 --> 00:14:57,990
mother. I'm married. I am happily
married.

271
00:15:00,290 --> 00:15:01,530
Now, what am I going to do?

272
00:15:02,230 --> 00:15:05,910
Carrie, if it makes you feel any better,
I know what you're going through.

273
00:15:06,370 --> 00:15:07,269
You do?

274
00:15:07,270 --> 00:15:08,270
Yes.

275
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,280
See, you want me to tell you that
everything will be all right.

276
00:15:12,060 --> 00:15:13,840
I can't do that.

277
00:15:14,660 --> 00:15:16,100
I really feel for you.

278
00:15:18,900 --> 00:15:19,900
Would you pass the ketchup?

279
00:15:26,580 --> 00:15:27,580
I'm looking.

280
00:15:27,700 --> 00:15:29,700
How did it go with your parents and your
friend last night?

281
00:15:29,940 --> 00:15:30,619
It was all right.

282
00:15:30,620 --> 00:15:31,760
It was all in my head.

283
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,780
I don't even know why I was ever
worried.

284
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:35,560
They said I'm doing great.

285
00:15:35,850 --> 00:15:38,910
And they're so happy they're taking me
to Chicago for the weekend.

286
00:15:39,190 --> 00:15:40,190
Wow.

287
00:15:40,470 --> 00:15:43,190
I'm doing great and my parents aren't
taking me anywhere.

288
00:15:44,550 --> 00:15:48,510
Come to think of it, they didn't say
anything about bringing me home.

289
00:15:49,630 --> 00:15:51,170
You know, you are nuts.

290
00:15:51,390 --> 00:15:53,290
Skip the shopping. Go straight to the
shrink.

291
00:15:58,450 --> 00:16:00,110
Anyone seen Zach or Mikey?

292
00:16:01,170 --> 00:16:02,550
They were here for Homer.

293
00:16:08,490 --> 00:16:09,550
school to buy concert tickets.

294
00:16:12,130 --> 00:16:13,130
Oops.

295
00:16:14,670 --> 00:16:15,930
Concert tickets, huh?

296
00:16:16,570 --> 00:16:18,350
Why do people tell me things?

297
00:16:20,010 --> 00:16:24,490
By any chance, Samuel, did they happen
to say when they might be gracing us

298
00:16:24,490 --> 00:16:25,409
their presents?

299
00:16:25,410 --> 00:16:26,750
For once, I'm safe.

300
00:16:26,970 --> 00:16:28,030
I really don't know.

301
00:16:28,470 --> 00:16:29,490
Can't tell you anything.

302
00:16:30,510 --> 00:16:34,350
But if they're on schedule, they're
probably sneaking through the schoolyard

303
00:16:34,350 --> 00:16:35,670
right now.

304
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,800
I think they deserve a proper welcome.

305
00:16:43,740 --> 00:16:45,640
Nikki, watch the crabs.

306
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,200
Zach, we messed up.

307
00:16:54,420 --> 00:16:57,280
We're really late for Bliss's class and
we didn't get the tickets.

308
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,480
Well, don't blame me.

309
00:16:58,660 --> 00:17:00,760
I didn't know hot lead was going to get
the mumps.

310
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,940
Hey, would you just relax?

311
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:04,660
It's only Miss Bliss.

312
00:17:05,579 --> 00:17:06,579
Miss Bliss?

313
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,520
Well, what happened to Carrie?

314
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:12,880
It's war history.

315
00:17:13,619 --> 00:17:17,119
Miss Bliss, we've been looking all over
for you. We looked in your class, we

316
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,920
looked in the cafeteria, and you weren't
there.

317
00:17:19,339 --> 00:17:22,960
You were in the halls the whole time. I
know. You were buying constantly.

318
00:17:23,380 --> 00:17:24,179
That's right.

319
00:17:24,180 --> 00:17:25,280
You weren't there either.

320
00:17:25,540 --> 00:17:26,859
You know how Led got the mumps?

321
00:17:28,140 --> 00:17:29,220
Zach, enough.

322
00:17:30,140 --> 00:17:32,120
Call your father. I want to see him
after school.

323
00:17:32,420 --> 00:17:33,560
Can't you wait until tonight?

324
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,440
Mikey, go to class. You don't have to
call your parents.

325
00:17:39,740 --> 00:17:40,740
I don't?

326
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:42,640
Thank you, Miss Bliss.

327
00:17:43,420 --> 00:17:44,580
I'm so relieved.

328
00:17:45,300 --> 00:17:46,360
So grateful.

329
00:17:46,900 --> 00:17:48,100
I'll see them tonight.

330
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,480
So dead.

331
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:56,920
Zach, what's going on?

332
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,960
Nothing. I got school. I got busted. No
big deal.

333
00:18:00,420 --> 00:18:02,820
You're wrong. It is a big deal.

334
00:18:06,140 --> 00:18:08,940
And I think it's time we talked about
your father and me.

335
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,200
Hey, there's nothing to talk about. It's
got nothing to do with me.

336
00:18:12,540 --> 00:18:13,880
It's between you and him.

337
00:18:14,780 --> 00:18:17,760
It's got everything to do with you. How
do you feel about it, Zach?

338
00:18:18,060 --> 00:18:20,300
Hey, it's fine with me if you just...
Zach!

339
00:18:20,580 --> 00:18:24,760
What? How do you... How did you feel
when you saw us kiss?

340
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,620
I hated it! Look, I don't want you to be
my father's girlfriend. Is that what

341
00:18:29,620 --> 00:18:30,620
you want to hear?

342
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:32,360
Yes.

343
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,620
Yes, if that's the truth, yes.

344
00:18:34,820 --> 00:18:35,820
Well, it is!

345
00:18:36,300 --> 00:18:40,820
I'm sorry. It probably doesn't make any
sense, but it just doesn't feel good.

346
00:18:43,420 --> 00:18:46,180
As a matter of fact, it makes very good
sense.

347
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:50,100
And I'm sorry I hurt you.

348
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:57,020
I tried to convince myself that it was
all right to go out with your father,

349
00:18:57,020 --> 00:18:59,120
deep inside I knew it was wrong.

350
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,600
Miss Bliss, I don't want to lose you as
my teacher.

351
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:07,160
And I don't want to lose you as my
student, and that's very important.

352
00:19:08,340 --> 00:19:09,980
You're very special to me, Zach.

353
00:19:11,500 --> 00:19:13,100
And I hope you can forgive me.

354
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:15,680
Yeah.

355
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,140
I can forgive you.

356
00:19:19,340 --> 00:19:23,160
Miss Bliss, I think this kind of means
that we can forget about me and Mikey

357
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,160
cutting class.

358
00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:26,020
No.

359
00:19:26,580 --> 00:19:28,840
Miss Bliss! Zach, don't start.

360
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:34,960
Peter.

361
00:19:35,660 --> 00:19:37,480
Oh, I'm so glad you were able to come.

362
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:38,720
I feel privileged.

363
00:19:38,940 --> 00:19:43,780
Two parent -teacher conferences in one
week. Well, this isn't about parents and

364
00:19:43,780 --> 00:19:46,640
teachers. It's about us. Am I in
trouble?

365
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:48,340
Why don't you sit down?

366
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:50,060
Uh -oh, I'm in trouble.

367
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:54,720
Peter.

368
00:19:59,020 --> 00:20:03,500
You're... Charming and intelligent, and
you have a great sense of humor. In

369
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:06,040
fact, everything a woman could possibly
want.

370
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,220
But? You're Zach's father.

371
00:20:09,820 --> 00:20:12,500
And that makes you out of bounds for me.

372
00:20:13,340 --> 00:20:17,660
Well, uh, what if I send Zach to school
in Switzerland?

373
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,620
Look, what are my chances of changing
your mind?

374
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,320
About... Not as good as Zach's chances
are of not getting punished for cutting

375
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,320
school.

376
00:20:34,780 --> 00:20:35,780
Oh.

377
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,440
Boy, I'm glad I didn't have you for a
teacher.

378
00:20:42,140 --> 00:20:43,660
But I'm glad Zach does.

379
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,480
So am I.

380
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,240
He's very special.

381
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:48,880
Yes.

382
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:50,640
Yes, he is.

383
00:20:54,260 --> 00:20:55,260
Well...

384
00:20:58,830 --> 00:21:02,670
It was nice meeting you, Miss Bliss.

385
00:21:03,530 --> 00:21:04,530
Yes.

386
00:21:10,330 --> 00:21:14,850
Oh, by the way, now, Zach is scheduled
to graduate in a year.

387
00:21:15,450 --> 00:21:18,470
If that ever happens, I hope...

388
00:21:18,470 --> 00:21:25,210
Previously on Dawson's Creek... You
kissed my

389
00:21:25,210 --> 00:21:27,250
girlfriend. Yeah, I did. Truth is, I'd
do it again.

390
00:21:29,309 --> 00:21:31,450
After everything that we've been
through, you just want to go back to

391
00:21:31,450 --> 00:21:32,450
friends? Yeah.

392
00:21:32,510 --> 00:21:36,230
Joey, if you don't understand why that
can't happen, if you don't get that, you

393
00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:37,230
don't get me.

394
00:21:37,290 --> 00:21:40,370
Your mother and I have decided to spend
some time apart.

395
00:21:40,810 --> 00:21:43,050
This is a conclusion that we've reached.

396
00:21:43,530 --> 00:21:45,250
Well, I can't believe that your
conclusion sucks.

397
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:48,150
You're aware that his goal is to sleep
with you.
