That Carl could

repay that loan,

which makes it a gift. And

it's not my money to give.

Yeah, but it's insured,

Dad.

Come on, can't you

just do it this once?

The FDIC covers the

bank in case it's robbed

or burns down,

not if I start

giving money away.

You know that, sweetie.

You're right.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

Oh, honey.

Is everything all right, Mr. Deeley?

- Yeah.

- Hey, Polly.

- Hi.

- Congratulations. Your dad told me--

- Harvard.

- Thanks, Barbara.

It's funny seeing you

here at this hour.

Funny, yeah.

Um, I--

I should get going.

Since the auditorium

asbestos clean up

Has gone slower

than expected,

We're going to cut

today's rehearsal short.

Just a reminder:

Graduation will be next

Monday, 9:
00 A.M. Sharp.

Be sure your parents are in

their seats 15 minutes early.

I have a way

to help your mom.

Graduation is at 9:00

on Monday, right?

My dad's vault

is time-locked to open

every Monday morning

at 8:
45.

We're gonna rob

my dad's bank.

No, I--

Okay, my dad's bank

swaps old bills

For new ones

every Monday.

There is gonna be $200,000

in there, at least.

We take as much

as we need.

And then go to jail, right?

That's what I need?

No no, every business in town

knows when the money is there.

Nobody is gonna

suspect us.

I spent four summers

behind that counter.

I know how it works.

With my dad at graduation,

The place is gonna be

running on a skeleton crew.

We can be in and out

in 10 minutes.

The money's Forge Hills'.

No, it's insured.

FDIC.

No. No.

We'll get summer jobs.

We'll work overtime.

We'll clean yards, okay?

There's no other way to get the

money we need as fast as we need it.

So we're just gonna

walk in

and we're just gonna take

the money just like that?

gonna walk into the hospital

and lay it down?

No, he's right. We have to find

someway to launder it somehow.

Yeah, right.

Right, launder it.

Guys, come on.

When did I become

the voice of reason here, huh?

You feel better?

Now all we need

are my dad's keys.

- Hey, it's the Harvard girl.

- Hey, Leroy.

Hey, oh, did you see

the news last night?

Someone spotted Elvis

at the game.

I'm telling you, baby,

he's everywhere.

Yeah!

- Hi. Is my dad in?

- Hi.

- When isn't he?

- Right.

You know, just between

you and me,

that eyeliner makes you

look like a hooker.

Thought you might

want to know.

Hey, Polly,

what's up?

I was just worrying

last night

about my moving

to Boston.

Honey, you're gonna have a great

time there. Absolutely great.

Didn't you live there

once before you met Mom?

When I met Mom, yeah.

Yeah, at this--

This strange

little skating rink

that some friends

talked me into going to.
