Finding Amanda Page #3

The boys are running around doing the

first 20 minutes of "Saving Private Ryan."

Well, people take different

approaches to parenting.

Yeah, well, I just don't

think it's right

to raise children whose

inner sense of security

depends on whether or not

they have a full clip handy.

They're having trouble

with Amanda.

- That's the big emergency?

- She's in Las Vegas

with some boyfriend.

- Well, how old is she?

- 20.

- That seems all right.

- She's working as a prostitute.

What?

She's working as a what?

She's working as

a prostitute.

- Holy sh*t!

- Shh!

Are you kidding? She's

a prostitute? A hooker?

Yes. Keep your voice down.

Get in the car.

Wait a minute, my 20-year-old

niece is working as a hooker?

Get in the car!

Amanda called a couple

of months ago

all excited about

this job she got dancing.

- In a show?

- No, some club.

Ah, well, I could have

told you right there.

You see, in Vegas, dancing is

a euphemism for stripping.

And stripping is

a euphemism for hooking.

Okay.

So Amanda had this friend,

Lauren.

And she went out

to Las Vegas

and stayed with Amanda

for a few days.

And she was so worried,

she called Karen.

And she told her that she

thinks Amanda might be on drugs.

And she told her that Amanda

was being a hooker?

How does she know?

Amanda just came out

and said it.

I guess she has a lot

of money and a new house.

And, Taylor, you can't tell

anybody about this

because Karen doesn't

want it spread around.

I'm sure they're probably

saving it for

that idiotic Christmas

letter they write every year.

"Donny's in third grade. Larry,

Jr. Just got his gun permit

and Amanda's in Vegas with some

strange guy's baby batter in her hair."

- Uh, that's--

- Don't do that. I'm driving.

- That's not funny.

- Don't hit when I'm driving.

Listen, Karen wants to get

Amanda into rehab

and there's this place

in Malibu--

Clark-- Clark Baron

Chrysalis Center.

- I've heard of it.

- It's in "people" every other week.

They mostly deal

with young people.

It's a six-week program and

I said we would pay for it.

- How much?

- $15,000.

Okay.

How do they intend

to get her there?

They're hoping she's

gonna want to go.

Oh, yeah, 'cause everybody

wants to go to rehab.

Rehab's about the happiest

place on earth

right-- right behind

Disneyland.

You know, will you just please stop it?

Because you're not helping.

I need a cigarette.

I don't think there--

I don't thing there are any in there.

What are these?

- Oh, those. Those are-- they're old.

- Today's the 14th.

- They're from months ago.

- These are from today.

Uh, I'm not sure.

Jesus, Taylor. I asked

you, were you at the track.
