driveway to air dry it.
Jason well she better hurry up or we’re going to miss the start of that movie
Ben I don’t get why you guys want to spend Friday night at a movie when you
could stay home with me on the best tv night of the week.
Jason well, it’s like this Ben. Every once in a while your mom and I like to go out alone
together just to celebrate the fact that we have three great kids.
Ben sure dad.
Jason besides Tuesday night is the best tv night and oh Ben, this is a new sitter

Dangerous

(Music)
Girl hi mike
Mike hi
Eddie we’re dead, we’re dead. Everyone’s going to think we’re weenies.
Boner not necessarily, I’ve got an idea. We don’t say that we don’t want to try cocaine.
All we have to say is that we have to be home before 10.
Mike what’s so funny?
Lana I was just thinking how upset my mom and dad would be if they knew I was having
this party.
Mike what?
Lana Well you see it’s their coke. now where were we?
Mike uh look, I just wanted to say . . .
Eddie that I’m eddie and that’s boner up there
Girl hi well let’s make this a group tooth. Lana!
Roland eddie, siever, now you can be cool or you can be a wimp 12 here huh?
Lana ahhh, that hot tub is looking pretty good
Girl it will look better once we visit the bathroom
Lana don’t mind if I do
Eddie oh hotubbing with Lana Fairday, I can’t stand it! It’s lucky I’m wearing my
trunks. I ran out of clean underwear!
Lana shall we?
Boner don’t blow this for us mike huh?
Girl is, uh, something wrong?
Mike um look I’m just not in the mood okay
Boner yeah, he’s trying to get all the heavy drugs out of his system
Boy anyway, please, if you guys are going to have a discussion can we use the john?
Lana just wait a minute okay? Now what’s going on here?
Mike um, look I’ve never done coke before
Lana for a second there I thought you guys were narcs! Especially the strange
Looking one.
Boner thank you
Girl look, if it’s your first time we’ll be gentle with you.
Boner first time
Eddie yeah first time
Mike hey, I don’t want to do coke ok?
Girls (giggling)
Mike c’mon what’s wrong with that?
Girl umm, I’m gonna go check on the hot tub.
Lana I’ll come with you
Boy excuse us boys
Mike guys I feel like a jerk, let’s get out of here. Are you guys coming or what?
Eddie c’mon mike she’s checking on the hot tub!
Mike eddie can we go?
Boner let’s put it to a vote, huh
Mike look, we came together we should leave together. I thought you guys were my friends.
Alright, you guys can stay or you can go, but I’m leaving.
Eddie I think I want to stay mike
Mike boner?
Boner mike, friends don’t make friends do something they don’t want to
Mike exactly
Eddie you know, I never thought siever would wimp out like that
Boner what? You’re confused man. We’ve been running with mikey since the first grade.
We know he’s not a wimp. He’s cool.
Lana so, are you in or are you out, boys?
Jason well it’s 2 am. That’s a nice night.
Mike dad!
Jason mike? It is mike, right? No, it couldn’t be. My mike was supposed to be home at 1
am
Mike uh dad, I know I missed my curfew
Jason whoa, at least you admitted you had one. Now that’s progress.
Mike hey dad, isn’t tonight the night we turn the clocks back for the time change?
Jason no, mike, that’s in October which is when you’re going to be grounded until unless
you can give me a good explanation for where you’ve been.
Mike ok,
Jason no, no no wait, wait, wait, let me get comfortable here. You know how I love these
stories. What will it be tonight, mike? You were out and saved some lives tonight. No
wait I’ll bet you ran into those darn gypsies again. Are you okay?
Mike dad, can I talk to you as a friend? Not as a guy who will make my life miserable 13?
Jason what’s wrong mike?
Mike dad, I gotta know that what I tell you won’t be used against me
Jason okay, what is it?
Mike ok, so I have your word that whatever I say you’re not going to. . .
Jason mike, just say it okay?
Mike ok. Me and eddie and boner. We ended up at a party where everybody was doing,
doing cocaine.
Jason cocaine?
Mike wait, you’re not my dad, you’re a friend!
Jason cocaine? Really?
Mike yeah, and if you didn’t do it you were a wimp
Jason cocaine
Mike dad I never felt so much pressure in my life
Jason and?
Mike and from boner and eddie
Jason and?
Mike and it was like I didn’t even have a choice
Jason? And?
Mike and I didn’t do it.
Jason you didn’t do it as in you did not
Mike I didn’t do the stupid drug
Jason well that’s great mike. That’s wonderful. I always figured that you’d make that
right choice if you had to face that but I’m relieved.
Mike dad, that’s not it.
Jason what?
Mike dad, I have been thinking about this since the party. Dad, I have been driving and
driving. . . .
Jason mike, you did the right thing
Mike yeah, that’s what kills me
Jason I don’t understand
Mike dad, I know I did the right thing. Its just that I feel like everyone’s going to laugh at
me. And some of those people did laugh.
Jason well, mike you’re not going to be able to please everybody.
Mike yeah well tonight I didn’t please anybody
Jason except yourself
Mike yeah
Jason yeah, what you did tonight took real courage, mike. I admire you.
Mike thanks
Jason sleep on it
Mike good night dad
Jason good night mike
Mike thanks dad
Jason uh eddie and boner called for you. They said they didn’t go to the bathroom and
they don’t want to.
Mike well what do you know?
Jason what does that mean?
Mike a lot.
Jason what a world.
Mike hi. You know a lot of people tell you that drugs are cool and they’re the same people who
are saying that everybody is doing something so what’s your problem? Well they’re wrong.
Everybody’s not doing drugs and you don’t have to do it to be cool. Look, I’m not telling you
how to live your lives, but I am telling you that you don’t have to do something that you don’t
want to just to keep your friends happy. I mean, if that’s the way that they feel, then maybe
they’re not your friends. And maybe they’re not as cool as you thought they were. And one
last thing. I’m not being paid to say this. This is how I feel and if you think that makes me
uncool, then you’re wrong.
