24-1 Parting Friends ACT I |
| [00:14.20] |
Hi, Mom. |
| [00:15.61] |
Hi, Robbie. |
| [00:16.24] |
You're home from school early. |
| [00:17.58] |
Yeah, they're getting the assembly hall |
| [00:19.18] |
ready for the graduation ceremony, |
| [00:20.98] |
so we all got to go home early. |
| [00:22.69] |
Too noisy to study. |
| [00:24.14] |
Well, now that you're here, |
| [00:25.24] |
you can help me with dinner. |
| [00:26.32] |
I need those potatoes peeled and sliced. |
| [00:30.70] |
Mom, give me a break. |
| [00:32.54] |
Alexandra's coming over to help me |
| [00:34.21] |
study for my math final. |
| [00:36.24] |
Well, in that case, |
| [00:38.26] |
you can wash the dishes and clean up after dinner. |
| [00:43.48] |
Can I invite Alexandra to stay for dinner? |
| [00:45.77] |
Of course. |
| [00:47.34] |
Thanks, Mom. |
| [00:52.14] |
You and Alexandra |
| [00:52.99] |
have become good friends, haven't you? |
| [00:55.23] |
Yes. I like her. |
| [00:56.72] |
She's a terrific person. |
| [01:01.26] |
I'm going to miss her |
| [01:01.93] |
when she goes back to Greece. |
| [01:05.31] |
Would you like to give her a little farewell party? |
| [01:09.42] |
Mom, that would be terrific! |
| [01:11.88] |
Maybe we could make it a surprise. |
| [01:14.34] |
Oh, I don't know. |
| [01:15.49] |
Surprise parties don't always work out. |
| [01:19.07] |
Well, we could tell her |
| [01:20.94] |
it's a graduation party for me. |
| [01:23.18] |
When Alexandra arrives, |
| [01:24.90] |
we'll surprise her. |
| [01:27.30] |
Well, I suppose that might work. |
| [01:29.72] |
I'd like to give her a nice going-away present. |
| [01:32.67] |
Fine. |
| [01:33.97] |
There's only one problem. |
| [01:36.74] |
What's that? |
| [01:39.79] |
I'm broke. |
| [01:41.08] |
I should have saved some money. |
| [01:43.10] |
I'm sure Alexandra |
| [01:44.15] |
would be happy with something simple, Robbie. |
| [01:46.63] |
I know. |
| [01:48.27] |
But, well, |
| [01:49.53] |
I'd like to give her something nice |
| [01:51.06] |
to remember me by. |
| [01:53.83] |
Maybe I could borrow some money from you and Dad. |
| [01:58.18] |
It's all right with me |
| [01:59.09] |
if it's all right with your dad. |
| [02:01.21] |
Thanks, Mom. |
| [02:01.79] |
I'll talk to him. |
| [02:03.24] |
Is he still in his office? |
| [02:04.42] |
I think so. |
| [02:06.17] |
Thanks, Mom. |
| [02:12.31] |
Robbie! Good luck! Robbie! |
| [02:32.62] |
Here are the X-rays you wanted, Dr. Stewart. |
| [02:34.07] |
Oh. Thank you, Molly. |
| [02:36.91] |
Now, let me check them. |
| [02:50.38] |
What do you think? |
| [02:52.29] |
I don't see any breaks or fractures. |
| [02:55.47] |
Well, well. Thank you, Molly. |
| [02:59.50] |
Thank you. |
| [03:15.36] |
Come in! |
| [03:17.66] |
Hi, Son. |
| [03:18.33] |
Hi, Dad. Am I interrupting you? |
| [03:21.53] |
No, no, no, no. |
| [03:23.39] |
What's up? |
| [03:24.11] |
Can we talk? |
| [03:25.91] |
Sure. |
| [03:27.53] |
I need some help. |
| [03:30.63] |
Well, that's what fathers are for. |
| [03:32.89] |
Well, before I go to college, |
| [03:36.44] |
I have the whole summer ... |
| [03:37.02] |
Yes ... |
| [03:37.54] |
And I'm planning to get a job for the summer. |
| [03:40.91] |
And what sort of job? |
| [03:42.68] |
I applied for a job as a lifeguard at the community pool. |
| [03:46.98] |
Sounds pretty good. |
| [03:48.37] |
Yes. I'll be earning pretty good money if I get it. |
| [03:51.57] |
But right now, I'm kind of short of cash. |
| [03:56.25] |
Who isn't? |
| [03:57.56] |
And my friend Alexandra is going back to Greece ... |
| [04:01.27] |
Nice girl. |
| [04:03.31] |
We'll all miss her. |
| [04:04.41] |
Mom says we can give her a going-away surprise party. |
| [04:07.95] |
Good idea. |
| [04:09.39] |
And I'd like to get her a nice gift ... |
| [04:13.26] |
What'd you have in mind? |
| [04:14.93] |
Well, a wristwatch, |
| [04:17.46] |
so she'll think of me when she looks at the time. |
| [04:20.93] |
Nothing flashy or expensive. |
| [04:23.33] |
Something simple--but a good one. |
| [04:26.82] |
Sounds fine, Robbie. |
| [04:28.70] |
Well, I saw a nice watch. |
| [04:31.27] |
But I'll need a loan. |
| [04:33.13] |
If you could lend me the money, |
| [04:34.32] |
I could pay you back out of my lifeguard salary. |
| [04:38.25] |
Well, I guess your mother and I can manage it. |
| [04:45.10] |
When do you need the money? |
| [04:46.98] |
Would tomorrow be OK? |
| [04:50.80] |
You've got it. |
| [04:52.99] |
Thanks, Dad. |
| [04:54.84] |
My pleasure, Son. |
| [04:57.28] |
Oh, and, Robbie ... |
| [04:59.44] |
Yes? |
| [05:00.81] |
You'll probably want the family car |
| [05:03.15] |
so you can drive her home after the party. |
| [05:06.38] |
Could I? |
| [05:12.83] |
If you drive carefully. |
| [05:15.19] |
I will. Thanks, Dad. |
| [05:17.25] |
My pleasure. |
| [05:19.80] |
You're OK, Dad. |
| [05:23.36] |
You're not so bad yourself, Son. |
