Vegas Vacation Page #4

Synopsis: When Clark Griswold puts his mind to something, we soon realize he hasn't got one. Still, nothing stops him when the vacation bug hits. This time, he's chosen Las Vegas, the new family entertainment capital of America! Chevy Chase returns as bubbly, bumbling Clark in Vegas Vacation, a jokers-are-wild laugh fest including two other stars from past Vacations. Beverly D'Angelo is back as wife Ellen, doting on the guy she calls "Sparky," and Randy Quaid again delights as grubby goof ball Cousin Eddie. Ethan Embry (That Thing You Do!) and screen-debuting Marisol Nichols are Griswold teens who love the round-the-clock nightlife - as long as they don't share it with Mom and Dad! From Seigfried and Roy's extravaganza to a Hoover Dam tour, from cruising to losing (Wallace Shawn as a shifty blackjack dealer) to amorous crooning (Wayne Newton falls for Ellen): watch Clark try to keep family and wallet together!

Are you?

He's sick.

Anyway...

He'll be okay.

I wish you two could come...

but no room for the kids,

so thanks for lunch, and bye.

Not so fast, Clark.

I'll get the babysitter.

Hey, kids...

round-up time!

They'll keep busy.

Where are we going?

Hoover Dam!

Over 1000 feet wide and

Where can I buy bait?

I love electricity.

Eddie says we'll get some soon.

What a magnificent achievement.

This is a family vacation.

Try to stay with the family.

Sorry, honey.

This way, please.

The tour is about to start.

Welcome, everyone.

I am your dam guide, Arnie.

I'm about to take you through

a fully functioning power plant.

So, please...

no one wander off the dam tour.

Please, take all the dam pictures

you want.

Now, any dam questions?

Where can I get some dam bait?

This way, please.

What'd he say?

This way.

Don't worry about water leaking

through the rocks. It's normal.

Please, keep up with the tour.

This is one of the oldest

dam tunnels we have.

Come here!

Give me your gum.

From my mouth?

Any gum! Look what's happening here!

- Here.

- I'll catch up.

Damn it.

Where is the damn dam tour?

Oh, boy. Oh, boy.

And there are over 100 million tons

of cement in these walls.

Hello. Hello.

Help!

It's not that high.

Okay, here we go.

Let's see if I've still got it.

Nice breeze up here.

That's how a power plant works.

How?

This tour gets better every week.

Fishing's been better.

Remember when I had that puffer fish?

Just like in gym class.

One hand at a time.

Ellen!

What's that?

Oh, my God!

Sorry, honey, I'll be right up.

This is steep.

Here we go.

Need help?

No, I got it.

That's a workout there, isn't it?

Climbed all the way up.

I almost lost my tag.

Drinks at the snacketeria on me.

I've noticed you're taking more

of an interest in the fairer sex.

There's something

your old dad would like to say.

You see...

there comes a time...

in every young man's life when he enters...

the fragrant garden of beautiful flowers.

And he wants to enter that garden

with a knowledge and...

a mulch...

to let the flowers bloom

more brightly, rather than...

Dad.

What?

If this is about sex, I already know.

You do?

Good talk, son.

So what's it going to be tonight?

"The Amazing Elvis Monkeys"?

"Liberace on Ice"?

Clark, I don't know.

It's been such a long day.

At Hoover Dam the water /eve/

dropped four feet from a f/ood.

Thank you.

And now back to gamb/ing.

Look at this.

Four tickets to Wayne Newton.

Wayne Newton!

Wayne Newton?

That's Las Vegas, they never stop giving!

Hi, for Ellen Griswold?

I'm Mr. Ellen Griswold.

"Please wear this tonight.

"A friend. "

Who's it from?

I don't know.
