Hey!
I got a couple of questions for you. I wanna know how come I gotta climb up the side of a building and get on a cell phone to talk to you!
Calm down. Where are you?
Dad! Dad, what are you doing?
What am I doing? It's the only way I can reach you! What are you doing in here? What's all of that about? You don't do that in public, do you?
Dance? Of course.
That's not dancing. That's advertising. What's this about you don't want to spend your birthday with your family?
Having dinner with your family is something you do when you're young, not when you're turning 16. Besides, I have a date.
You can bring your date 'cause you're coming to dinner.
Cool! Eric, these are my parents and my little sister. They're joining us on our date.
No, he's gonna be joining us at a family event. We have it every year. I don't even know why-- [finds Charisse's report card] What's this?
Dad, that's private.
I can see why it's private. it's embarrassing. You got two C's and a D.
Embarrassing? [chuckles] Dad, you are the last person who should talk about anything being embarrassing.
What are you talking about? What's that supposed to mean?
I'm supposed to stop helping the animals because you find it embarrassing?
That's not gonna happen.
That's right. It's not gonna happen. So forget about it. You're coming to dinner. Look at this. No cell phone for a week.
What am I supposed to do without my cell phone?
Here's some stamps. Learn how to write a letter. You think I care? Do I look like I care? Look at me. No, Charisse.
No.
Look at me. Do I look like I care? Look. I don't care.
