-No, I read it on the message.

Okay, so it's Lloyd and let's go out.

-You wanna go out?

-Thanks, but I'm busy.

-Busy.

-Things are pretty hectic, but thanks.

-You busy on Friday?

-Yeah, I have to help my father.

-How about Saturday?

-I have things to do around the house.

So you're too monumentally busy?

Well, not monumentally.

What about tonight then?

You going to Vahlere's party?

You can't leave the country

without going to Vahlere's.

The gentleman is 22 and comes out

of hiding once a year for this. . .

. . .dressed as the Lakeside Rooster.

He makes Purple Passion drinks--

-I think that--

-You're not in England yet.

I lived in England for three months.

My parents are in the Army,

so we lived in England and Germany.

I could give you many English tips.

-Well. . . .

-I won't give any tips of any kind.

-I'll go.

-Pardon me?

-I'll go.

-You will?

Excellent. This is great.

-You will, really?

-I'll go.

We're going out. It's a date.

It's a scam. Whatever. All right.

-I'll pick you up at what, 8:00?

-Eight.

Eight o'clock.

-Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

Lloyd Dobler. . . .

Thank you, little man.

Now work that bag, J-man.

Hook off the jab. Straight left hand.

-What do we love?

-Pain!

Work that jab! Work that hook!

Okay, take a break.

Be right there!

Hi. Lloyd Dobler, sir.

-Pleasure to meet you.

-Hi.

Heard about the graduation gift.

Really quite a car.

I know you're busy

so no need to entertain me.

You can trust me. I'm 1 9.

Was overseas for a few semesters.

I rarely drink, as I kickbox.

It's the sport of the future.

Don Wilson? Benny Urquidez?

Your face says no.

Your daughter will be safe with me

for the next seven to eight hours.

Fine, Lloyd.

-Come in.

-Thank you.

-How you doing?

-I'm--

-Is she around?

-Honey?

Would you hold this for me?

-What are these?

-Bavarian Dutch-style pretzels.

Would it be terrible

if I wanted to go home early?

You're not gonna believe this.

-Oh, my--

-Oh, my God.

Hi, Lloyd.

You okay? Want a drink?

What's up, Lloyd?

-What's happening?

-What's up, man?

-Hey, Dobler!

-We are out of control!

That's not happening.

Now I gotta go to summer school.

How you doing?

-It's gotta stay purple all night.

-How you doing?

-You know Diane Court?

-Diane! Well. . . .

-I need you to be the Keymaster.

-I was just--

He's very responsible. Thanks a lot.

-I was gonna move around. Thanks.

-"Keymaster"?

I gotta judge who can drive

and who can't, and keep their keys.

-So it's an honor.

-No.

-We finally graduated, big-dude guy!

-All right!

I'm so glad you came to this.

I've always wanted you

to come to one of these.

I wish you'd done that

without the keys!

-Come on. There are so many cute guys.
