My X-ray vision!

Don't worry

about the X-ray vision.

Only acid can destroy that.

Just rinse them out.

Hey. Griz-meister. Breakfast.

Is that English

you're speaking?

Come on. We gotta check out and go.

Have some bagel and vitamins.

I hate those things.

Tough.

Whatcha reading, Natty?

Flora and fauna

of the Grand Canyon.

What's the biggest fauna?

Mountain lion?

Nah. They're all dead.

Those jerks.

Hey, Dad, now how long

till we get to the Grand Canyon?

Well, we're 10 hours closer

than the last time you asked.

Good. 'Cause we only have

two more months...

till the Mexican long-tongued bat

goes into hibernation.

I think I better step on it then.

Uh-huh.

What's Griz listening to?

She only has one album.

Yeah. Morrissey.

Who? Isn't that the dorkus

down the street?

Billy? Morry?

What are you guys

talking about?

- Your depressing emo music.

- Like you guys know anything.

All the stuff you kids listen to these

days is awful. Except Sting.

As if anyone listens to Sting.

- You mean I'm out of the loop?

- No geriatrics are in the loop, Dad.

Hey, Dad. Do you think they'll let me

on the football team in Arcadia?

I don't see why not.

'Cause I weigh 62 pounds,

that's why not. Listen, Nat-man.

There's nothing you can't do

if you try hard enough.

Maybe you can be

on the swim team.

There's gonna be a pool

at our house, you know.

You should see the office they set

me up with, right on Beverly Drive.

Palm trees, even,

right out my window.

Hey, Dad, when is my first riding lesson?

Soon as we get settled.

I wouldn't hold my breath.

No, come on.

A promise is a promise.

And one of those... the Cherry Tripler.

Gotta be 18 for those.

I know. It's for my dad.

That's for my mom.

I'll bet.

Come on, Nat.

Ohh!

Look.

Where'd you get those?

Did you pay for that?

Nope.

You were the decoy, and I snagged...

That's stealing.

Guys, come on.

Let's go.

Go bring it back.

No way.

Greta, come on. They're just Tootsie Rolls.

What if Mom knew you did that?

Guys, come on.

That's nice. It's not even noon,

for Christ sakes.

Whole country's

going down the tubes.

We'll do a number after

we cross every state border.

Come on, Greta.

That'll take forever.

What are you nerds

whispering about back there?

Nothing.

What's that nudie thing for?

It's not a nudie thing.

It's for luck.

Oh. Cool.

- Are you sure, uh, this is the right way?

- I don't know.

It said you had

to get on the 65,

but I don't know

if you passed it.

The 65's back there.

What?

Jesus!

Hey, slow down, a**hole!

Dad.

You like that?

I'll sit here all day

if I have to.

Huh? Is that better? Idiot.

F***in' a**hole!

You must be a f***ing a**hole!
