Man!

What?

This sandwich!

My folks had a

fondue party last night.

Now I've got this sliced,

solid fondue sandwich.

Look at that!

Your folks are having

parties during this?

Well, they had it

already melted.

Any of you guys going to

that horror show on Saturday?

Yeah, if they still have it.

If they still

have Saturday.

Hey, that's deep.

I think it's called "mant!"

The guy who made it was on tv.

P.T.A.'S trying

to ban him.

Tough.

What's his name?

Lawrence woolsey.

He's coming in person.

He's got a new process.

What's the process?

It's things like 3-d

or when stuff

comes out of the walls,

like on "island

of the flesh eaters."

They locked the theater

so you couldn't get out

if you were scared.

Yeah, I heard

in this one town...

The projector guy

got so scared he died.

That was a different movie,

and it didn't happen.

That was the one

where they hypnotize you:

"The eyes of

doctor diablo."

Hey, Navy here is

a walking encyclopedia.

[Boys chuckling]

My name's gene.

They hypnotized you?

I don't know.

They guaranteed that

you wouldn't remember.

That'd be the best show

to take a girl to.

She gets really scared

so she grabs onto your arm.

You kinda sneak your arm

over in there.

Hey, quit it!

- Your elbow doesn't count, man.

- Sure, it counts!

What is there, rules?

[Bell ringing]

Hey, Navy!

Wait up!

We move every year,

sometimes more.

You move every year?

How many gym suits

do you have?

I have three wildcats,

two pirates, two cougars.

Wow!

You got a date

for that show Saturday?

No.

You oughta get one.

This is a kinda special place

you're in here.

Florida?

No, key West.

It's like

the make-out capital

of the world.

It's like there's

something in the air.

Even grown-ups like doin' it.

Get a date for Saturday

and see what I mean.

I haven't met anybody.

Just walk up and ask 'em.

It's easy. Like, "I'm taking

you to a monster movie.

"Don't worry about the monster

gettin' you. Worry about me.

Don't be late.

I wanna get milk duds."

Really, like that?

Yeah, 'cause you're

in control, man.

She likes that.

What?

Sherry, hi.

Hello, Stan.

Uh, this is my friend gene

from out at the base.

Uh, gene's father's on one

of those blockade ships...

Off of Cuba.

Oh, my gosh!

Is he?

You must be

so worried about him.

But, that's wonderful.

I think everybody's

thinking about "our boys,"

not that your father's

a boy or anything.

Well, he's forty.

I think people naturally

refer to them as "our boys."

And I think there should be

a special prayer moment...

For all of them

in study hall.

So do I.

Yeah?

Well, I guess

I'll see you guys later.

Bye, Stan.

Bye.

Hey, you okay?
