Come on. Give it to me.

Give it to me.

That looks like cooking oil.

Yeah, well, let's see what it can do.

Come on, open up.

Be careful, be careful.

Come on, this is stupid.

Trigger, how did that happen?

Did you ever see

The Emerald Forest...

...where the guy, he swallows some

stuff and turns into a panther?

- No.

- Same principle.

Did either of you

notice anything unusual...

...about Seymour and Sparky today?

- No.

- No.

- Oh, God, it's my dad.

- l'm out of here.

Terrific.

Come on, just stay for dinner

and lessen the blow. Help me out.

Will you relax?

l don't see what the big deal is.

- You blew an assignment.

- lt's a big deal. You know my dad.

You don't want to be in med school

anyway. lf l was you...

...l'd say, ''Get off my back, Jack,

or there's gonna be hell to pay.''

Dr. Hammond,

what a delightful surprise.

- lsn't it?

- Trigger, stay for dinner.

Well, how'd you do, Chris?

Doc, that's a great jacket.

lt really brings out the color-

The color in my eyes.

Yeah, right. Chris?

The grades aren't posted till Monday.

l don't know.

Monday?

Oh, l was hoping you'd hear

before the weekend.

Yeah, l know, but-

Oh, Dad, l'm running anchor...

...in the mile relay at the district

championships tomorrow.

Good. Be sure to mention that to the

guys from Northwestern on Friday.

Dr. Hammond, l'm leaving in a minute.

The spaghetti's nearly ready.

Bread is in the oven...

...and the salad's in the fridge.

- See you later, Phyllis.

- What?

- Right.

- Dad, l need to talk to you about...

- ...the interview with Northwestern.

- How about the interview with Lori?

- Didn't you reconfirm it?

- Yeah.

Damn right. Let's face it,

you lucked out.

She's major-league action.

l didn't think you had a prayer.

- You said l was the ultra-dude.

- l didn't mean it.

She's used to guys that are

a cross between Don Johnson...

- ...and Sylvester Stallone.

- What does that make me?

You're more of a cross between

Sylvester Stallone and Don Knotts.

Oh, yeah? Well, you're

like a cross between Don Knotts...

...and Sylvester the Cat with

a lint ball mixed in for lQ purposes.

After what you got on

that biology presentation...

...l don't think you qualify

to be making lQ judgments.

l mentioned that jacket already,

haven't l?

Herringbone or something?

What the hell did you get?

Oh, you mean the actual grades.

Those are gonna be posted

on Monday.

But Trigger's talking about the...

Temporary.

They can change anytime.

l got a temporary grade.

Those are gonna change

without notice. So for the time being...

...it may appear

that l may have gotten a-

- A C.

- A C. When actually-

A C? You got a C?
