00:00Then we never be bored
00:06Wish I could get out on my own make a bunch of money and start the party
00:15I wish I was a bird
00:30You're not the boss of me now
00:33You're not the boss of me now
00:36You're not the boss of me now
00:38And you're not so big
00:41You're not the boss of me now
00:44You're not the boss of me now
00:47You're not the boss of me now
00:49And you're not so big
00:54Life is unfair
01:00We're going bowling tonight with some kids from school.
01:08It's like four boys and six, you know, girls.
01:12Not that I care. It doesn't make any difference to me.
01:15Why can't I go bowling too?
01:17Because you are spending the night in your room.
01:20You are being punished.
01:21And tomorrow you are going to the store and buying Mrs. McNabb a new parakeet.
01:25Aw, Dad.
01:27Don't look at me. As far as you boys are concerned, your mom and I are united front.
01:32We're ready. Who's going to drive us?
01:35I'll do it.
01:36I'll do it.
01:36You to your room. March.
01:38Come on, son. Race to your room.
01:42Oh, boys, you are going to have so much fun.
01:44One complaint about your behavior and I'll come down on you like a hammer.
01:49Bowling strikes, picking up spares.
01:52And when you're getting ready to roll, the girls will be in back of you.
01:55Checking out the old hinder.
01:56This is one of the last places you haven't been banned from.
02:00So unless you want to spend your Saturday nights in the laundromat, you better behave.
02:05Do I smell cologne?
02:07Very sophisticated.
02:12Is this Irving Street?
02:14I've never seen that church before.
02:16Let's see. We were supposed to take the second lift after we went over the bridge and then...
02:24Ow!
02:25Jeez, how is anybody supposed to find this place?
02:28Here we are.
02:29Uh, this is good, Ma. You can drop us off here.
02:32Yeah, you don't need to come in. We can walk the rest of the way.
02:35Oh, I understand. You're at that age where I'm an embarrassment to you.
02:41Hi. I need two pair of shoes. Size 7 and size 9.
02:44Coming up.
02:46Where did all my money go? I've only got $6.
02:51Uh, just give me one pair. Size 8. You boys can share.
02:55But Reese isn't wearing any socks.
02:57I'm not sticking my socks in those nasty shoes.
03:00Ah, see? Told you we'd find it.
03:10Now, let's just get you set up with some shoes.
03:14Ooh, pricey.
03:16Good thing I stole some cash from your mom's wallet this morning.
03:20Go to sleep.
03:21I don't want to hear another peep out of you.
03:24It's not fair.
03:25I don't want to go to sleep early.
03:27Fine. Feel free to lie awake all night.
03:30Okay, go to sleep.
03:33I don't want to hear a peep out of you.
03:35It's not fair.
03:36I don't want to go to sleep early.
03:38We're not debating this. I'm serious, Dewey.
03:41I don't want any trouble with you.
03:42That means no pleading, no whining, no crying.
03:51You do understand why we're doing this, don't you, son?
03:54Hey, check it out. Beth Ballard's here.
04:02Yeah. I hear she's why Mr. Thomas got fired.
04:05You can go now. Thanks for the ride.
04:09Where are the parents? Are there no parents here?
04:12Mom, please don't.
04:14Where are your parents? Who's chaperoning this?
04:17Mom, we don't need a chaperone.
04:18Okay. It's me.
04:21We got two lanes here. Let's use them.
04:23You, you, you, you, and you.
04:25You'll use that lane.
04:26You five, use this one.
04:27Mom, please don't do this.
04:29You kidding? You guys are bowling.
04:33You could cut the hormones around here with a knife.
04:37I mean, what kind of parent would leave these kids alone with themselves?
04:40Okay. I'll see you in a couple hours.
04:44Hey, there's Beth Ballard.
04:47Did you see that? She smiled at me.
04:49I hate to break it to you, but she was smiling at me.
04:51Okay, fine. Let's both go talk to her and find out.
04:55Sounds fair.
04:58Hey, Beth.
05:00Hi, Reese.
05:02Having fun?
05:03I guess.
05:04I'm kind of surprised to see you here.
05:07I mean, you're too cool to have to go to a bowling party.
05:09Well, I could say the same thing about you.
05:14Hey, I've got a great joke.
05:17How would you like to take a walk on the beach?
05:20Feel the salt spray in your face and the wind in your hair?
05:25Sure, I guess.
05:27Looks like you already have.
05:30What's the matter with you?
05:32You spit on me, you pig.
05:36What? Don't you get it?
05:39Yeah, just one game.
05:40Oh, can you put me down at the end?
05:42See, my kids are here with a bunch of friends and, you know, some old girls.
05:46I don't want to crap their style.
05:48That's just not me.
05:49And another thing.
05:54The next person who swears is getting their parents called.
05:57You can count on it.
05:59I want to see a little daylight between you two.
06:02Let's go, Malcolm.
06:03You can do it.
06:04You're not going to throw another gutter ball this time.
06:06Mom, just let me go.
06:08Okay, okay.
06:08That's a good effort, Malcolm.
06:22Yes!
06:26Nice roll.
06:27Thanks.
06:28You're pretty good, too.
06:30I've got a joke for you.
06:35Would you like to take a walk on the beach?
06:37Freeze!
06:38You're up!
06:48Hello.
06:49Hey, Dad.
06:50I need a favor.
06:51Let's hear it.
06:52Well, some of the other cadets are going in together on an old car.
06:55And if I put in $100, I get the car every seventh weekend.
07:00I could take road trips and go on dates.
07:03I could drive underprivileged children to cultural stuff.
07:06Oh, come on, Francis.
07:08That's ridiculous.
07:09I am not giving you the money to buy one-seventh of a piece of junk.
07:13Okay.
07:13Just thought I'd ask.
07:15Later, Dad.
07:16Bye.
07:17Hey, Mom.
07:18I need a favor.
07:19Sure.
07:20Let's hear it.
07:20Well, some of the other cadets are going in together on an old car.
07:25And if I put in $100, I get the car every seventh weekend.
07:28I could go to road trips and go on dates.
07:31I could drive underprivileged children to cultural stuff.
07:35Oh, honey, I'm sorry.
07:36I really don't think we can afford this right now.
07:38Of course.
07:39I knew you'd say that.
07:41Why do I even try?
07:42Now you can go to bed happy knowing that you kept my life a living hell.
07:50Maybe the lane is warped.
07:55Mom, please.
07:56You're not that bad of a bowler, Malcolm.
07:59I know you're not.
08:00What are you doing?
08:02Try this one.
08:02It's a lighter ball.
08:03Mom, this is a little kid's ball.
08:05Do it.
08:06Try it.
08:06Pick a lane.
08:30Your brother's not very good.
08:32Maybe you should help him.
08:34No, I couldn't do that in front of everybody.
08:37I'm kind of his hero.
08:38You could just embarrass him.
08:41Sweet.
08:42You know, you never told me that joke.
08:44Oh, great.
08:46Would you like to take a walk on the beach through the Salt Spring?
08:51Reese, you're up.
08:52Oh, great.
09:22Oh, my God.
09:52Pop them and drop them.
09:57Not buying it.
10:01What's wrong, son?
10:06Nothing.
10:07Hey, you want me to read you a story?
10:11No.
10:12Oh, come on.
10:13Hey, hey.
10:14I'll read you Wilbur the Worried Worm.
10:17You love that.
10:18Let's see where it...
10:20Hey, here it is.
10:23How about that?
10:26Okay.
10:30There once was a worried little worm named Wilbur.
10:34Oh, perfect.
10:39Wilbur lived in a magic garden filled with beautiful flowers.
10:45One day...
10:46One day...
10:47...

11:04Man, six strikes.
11:24You're on your way to a...
11:25Hey.
11:30Oh, hi.
11:32Sorry about my brother.
11:33We try to limit his contact with humans.
11:37Don't worry, you still look great.
11:40You're not very much like him, are you?
11:42No.
11:56You're so cute.
12:03Hey.
12:11Oh!
12:12Oh!
12:13Oh!

13:28I am the mayor of Striketown!
13:40I am the mayor of Striketown!
13:52Are you deaf?
14:04What?
14:05I guess it's a yes to the do you like my lip gloss question.
14:11Yeah, yes.
14:13I mean, why wouldn't I say yes to anything you ask?
14:17Hey, not bad. You're a pretty smooth talker. What else are you good at?
14:27A lot of things.
14:29So how about you pick one thing?
14:33Maybe I will.
14:35Maybe I'd like that.
14:37Maybe you would.
14:39Maybe it is.
14:41I just can't seem to stop talking like this.
14:46Stop talking like that, Malcolm.
14:49You can do this.
14:50Now just remember, bend your knee on the follow through and remember to keep your elbow in.
14:55Why don't you just kill me and get it over with?
14:58Come on, I'm trying to help you.
15:00Can't I at least use a boys ball?
15:02No, you've knocked over five pins since you switched to that ball.
15:25Oh, you must really want out of this room to dress into manipulative picture.
15:33Mm-hmm.
15:40Go to sleep, sweetie.
15:51That's $11.50.
15:53I gave all my cash to the video guy.
15:56Do you take credit cards?
15:57Yeah.
15:58Is one enough?
16:02Better make that, too.
