RV Page #3

Synopsis: The executive Bob Munro is stressed, feeling threatened of losing his job and his lifestyle, since his abusive boss Todd Mallory hired the Stanford's geek Laird to work in their soda's company. Bob has promised his wife Jamie Munro, his teenage daughter Cassie Munro and his young son Carl Munro to spend vacations in Hawaii, but Todd demands him to prepare a presentation and attend a business meeting with the owners of a family company in a merging operation scheduled in the same period. Bob hides the truth to his family, rents a recreational vehicle and tries to convince his dysfunctional family that a road trip to the Colorado Rocky Mountains would be good to bring old values back to their family. After many incidents and while in the trailers parking area, the rookie Bob is helped by the bizarre but friendly Gornicke family. They escape from the Gornickes and initiate a journey of difficulties and leaning, retrieving their forgotten family bonds.

And I want Hawaii.

All right, we'll go to Hawaii.

At Christmas. Then it will just be us

and a lot of Jewish people.

- We'll have all the ham to ourselves.

- I'll have to cook.

No, you won't, because I'll cook

every night, every meal.

We were gonna take naps.

Hotel room, afternoon...

- ... lock - The - Door naps.

- Oh, the good naps.

- How are we gonna do that in an RV?

- I'll drive slowly.

- I was gonna get a massage.

- I'll give you a massage.

You're gonna do all the cooking,

give me massages.

And spend time with the kids.

You got it.

Did you cancel our Hawaii trip

because Todd told you to?

Did you volunteer us

for some sort of experiment?

The family travels around and drinks

nothing but Pure Vibe soda...

...see if our teeth fall out?

Honey, I'm running out of time

with my kids.

Come on, baby. Why don't you

come out in the wilderness...

...with your big, brawny man?

Don't make me call

for my mail - Order bride.

Bob.

Here's something your genius

husband probably overlooked.

Four miles to the gallon?

Gee, why don't we just stay home

and set fire to an oil field.

There's an elegant touch.

Or we could just travel around

in clown suits.

I spent the night with my head

in the toilet. I'm sure it's contagious.

All right, no more details.

Just e - Mail me the new proposal.

- That's my couch. Move.

- Make me.

- This seat's better, anyway.

- Whatever.

Welcome aboard, everybody.

Before we embark...

...i think we should give

this beauty a name. Suggestions?

The Big Turd.

The Big Rolling Turd.

In that spirit, we set forth.

Make it so, Number One.

Honey, are you sure know how to -?

- Honey?

- Trust me, okay?

Thanks.

Oh, my God.

- Honey, honey.

- What?

- Oh, tree.

- Yeah, it's all right.

Honey?

Honey. Honey.

Oh, my God.

- We're okay.

- Honey.

Honey, tree! Tree!

Honey, honey.

- Honey.

- Okay.

Anything else you want to hit?

Do you want to go back?

We missed the neighbor's cat.

You are 31 hours

from your destination.

- What's that?

- RoadMate 700.

- I call her "Lola. "

- Make a right in 100 feet.

Thank you, Lola.

She's accurate to within 10 feet.

- Go straight.

- No, Lola says take a right.

- Well, mall traffic. Go straight.

- Fifty feet.

- Yeah, but she said take a right.

- Well, I'm telling you to go straight.

Twenty feet.

- Choose.

- Baby, please.

- Turn right.

- Choose.

- Dad!

- Turn right.

My bad.

- You are 30 hours and 59 minutes -

- Turn her off.

- From your destination.

Say, Dad, this is interesting.

"Unsecured items

in an unlatched cabinet...

...are a recipe for disaster. "

Didn't you read this?

No, I was too busy thinking

of all the ways we're gonna have fun.
