00:26What are you doing? I'm studying.
00:28Edward, your study habits are pitiful. How are you doing in school anyway?
00:33I don't sweat, Dad. I'm pretty sure I'm getting straight C's. And with any luck, a shot at a B.
00:42Well, that's a relief. What subject?
00:45Woodshop. I'm getting pretty good with shellac.
01:01It's a rare condition, this day and age, to read any good news on the newspaper page.
01:08The love and tradition of the grand design, some people say is even harder to find.
01:15Well, then there must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls.
01:23Cause all I see is a tower of dreams, real love bursting after every scene.
01:30As days go by We're gonna fill our house with happiness
01:38The moon may dry But we'll smother the blues with tenderness
01:45As days go by There's room for you, room for me
01:52With gentle hearts and opportunity
01:56As days go by It's the bigger love of the family
02:18You know, I haven't colored in years. I forgot how good I was.
02:24Notice my use of contrast and shadowing to create the illusion of depth.
02:29Too bad you didn't stand in lines.
02:39We have got to do something with Eddie.
02:43I'm open.
02:45Harry, I'm worried about him. His study habits are terrible.
02:50Carl, it's his first semester in high school. He's adjusting.
02:53Took him a month to settle on the right three ring binder.
02:57Yes, and then he went out and bought two whole paper.
03:01Harriet, he is in high school now. If he doesn't get good grades, he'll never get into college.
03:06And if he doesn't get into college, he'll never get a good job.
03:09And if he doesn't get a good job, he'll be living here forever.
03:13That's it, we're hiring a tutor.
03:18Well, I'm all finished studying for the night.
03:20Hey, grab a crayon. You can color with us.
03:24No, thanks. I don't want to overload my brain.
03:28Tying your shoes overloads your brain.
03:32Oh, yeah? I can tie my shoes with both hands behind my back.
03:38I rest my case.
03:50All right, everyone. It's that time again.
03:57And will the lovely report card lady hand me the envelopes, please?
04:09Oh, will you just open them?
04:11This report card ritual is about as much fun as a root canal.
04:16Harriet, this is a Winslow family tradition.
04:19Now, five dollars an A is an excellent incentive.
04:21What's an incentive?
04:25Look it up!
04:28Judy Winslow, come on down!
04:32Let's see how you did.
04:35Ooh, two A's and three B's. Very good!
04:42Here is ten dollars.
04:45Thanks, Dad.
04:46I'm rich!
04:52Laura Winslow, come on down!
04:59As usual, another excellent report card.
05:03English, A. Mathematics, A. Physical Education, A. Music, A. Science, A. History, B-plus.
05:11A B-plus? Let me see that.
05:16I don't believe this. I always get straight A's. I've never gotten a B in my life.
05:22Cool down, Laura. It's an excellent report card.
05:25Here's twenty-five dollars.
05:28I'll take it. But I'm not happy.
05:36And now you, Edward.
05:38Dad, listen.
05:40Before you open my report card, there's something you ought to know.
05:43My science teacher hates me.
05:46Oh, and during my math exam, I got extremely dizzy.
05:50I think I have an outer ear infection.
05:59Carl, it can't be that bad.
06:02What?
06:06Does this mean I didn't get the B in Woodshop?
06:12Come over here, son.
06:21How did you do it?
06:24Do what?
06:27Eddie got straight A's.
06:34Our Eddie.
06:36This Eddie.
06:37Eddie Winslow.
06:41Can't believe it.
06:42You can't believe it.
06:45This is a dream come true.
06:50Well, six A's, five bucks a piece.
06:54You owe me forty bucks, Dad.
07:03Five times six is thirty.
07:05He can't even multiply.
07:08I got an A in math that says I can.
07:13Uh, son, I seem to be a little short.
07:16I didn't expect to pay out this much cash.
07:19Perhaps I can get some financial assistance from the lovely report card lady.
07:26If you call me report card lady one more time, you're gonna spend the night in detention.
07:33Perhaps you'll take a check.
07:47Hi, Mom.
07:48Hi, Rachel.
07:51Hi, Laura.
07:53Hi, baby.
07:54Honey, you'll feel better if you watch TV.
07:57Wall Street Week in review is on.
08:00No.
08:01I don't deserve to have fun until I get an A in history.
08:06It's good to see Carlson's Senate program working so well.
08:10I'll get it.
08:15Hi, Rodney.
08:17Hello, Mrs. Crawford.
08:18It's good to see you.
08:24Rodney, I hate it when you do that.
08:27Come on.
08:29It's a joke.
08:30Rodney, don't be putting any of that fake vomit in my kitchen.
08:37If you're looking for Eddie, he's up in his room.
08:40Thanks.
08:43And don't be putting any saran wrap on the toilet seats.
08:53Hey, Rodney.
08:55What's wrong?
08:56I don't know.
08:58I feel kind of sick.
09:16That was great.
09:18Come on.
09:19Let's go to the movies.
09:20I can't.
09:21I need to study.
09:22I really want to keep up my grades.
09:24Yeah, right.
09:25I guess that means you got your report card.
09:28Pretty funny, huh?
09:30Yeah.
09:33What are you talking about?
09:36You got straight A's, right?
09:38Yeah, how'd you know?
09:39We all got straight A's.
09:41Really?
09:43Yeah.
09:43I found a way to make fake report cards on my computer.
09:46I mailed them out.
09:48The real ones don't come to tomorrow.
09:57You mean these aren't my real grades?
09:59Not unless you had a brain transplant.
10:04Yeah, I thought I was smart.
10:08You thought you were smart?
10:10What are you, stupid?
10:14Dad's gonna kill me.
10:28Dad's gonna kill me.
10:28Yeah.
10:28Hi, mom.
10:29Hi, Rachel.
10:31Hi, honey.
10:32I'm making cookies.
10:33Want something?
10:35No, thanks.
10:37Cookies will make me happy.
10:40I don't deserve to be happy.
10:43Got any liver?
10:48Look, Laura
10:48I know you feel bad about your report card
10:51But you did well
10:53You always do
10:54Mom, you don't understand
10:55I wanted to go to a top law school
10:58Harvard, Yale, or Michigan
11:00I don't want to end up at the University of Bubba
11:05Why don't you talk to her?
11:07She won't listen to me
11:09You know, Laura
11:10I got into a good college
11:12And I never got straight A's
11:13Really?
11:14Yes
11:14Because I was a well-rounded student
11:16I was editor of the paper
11:18I was in the drama club
11:20And I was in the marching band
11:21Hey, you're musical
11:22How about the marching band?
11:25I'll rate y'all play the piano
11:28Yeah
11:29It would be hard pushing that across the football field
11:35That B-plus will be hanging over my head for the rest of my life
11:40Oh, darn
11:41What's the matter?
11:43Look at these cookies
11:45I guess I'll just have to throw them out
11:46Why?
11:47They look fine to me
11:48Not to me
11:50Look, that one doesn't have quite enough chips in it
11:52Who cares?
11:53It'll still taste good
11:54No
11:55If all the cookies aren't perfect, they all have to go
11:57But that doesn't make any sense
11:59You don't throw cookies out just because one...
12:05I get it
12:06I get it
12:07This is one of those parent tricks where you try to tell me something without actually telling me something
12:14Did it work?
12:15I don't know
12:16Let me eat a few of those cookies and now I think about it
12:26Hi, honey
12:28Carl, that new dry cleaner did a great job on your uniform
12:32They even got out the jelly donut stain
12:34Oh, that's great, great
12:36But honey, look
12:37Take a look at these college brochures I picked up for Eddie
12:39With his grades, he can go to any school that he wants
12:43Harvard
12:45Yale
12:47Columbia
12:48Carl, don't you think you're getting carried away with this grade thing?
12:52I mean, Laura thought her life was over because she got one B-plus
12:55Harriet, she just knows the competition
12:57Nowadays, there's no room for average
13:00You're either a shark or you're fish bait
13:05Hi, Mom
13:05Hi, Dad
13:06Hi, baby
13:07There you are, son
13:08I've been looking for you
13:11Look what I got for you
13:14Ta-da
13:16Oh, Dad
13:17It's just what I've been wanting
13:19All for you, smart guy
13:23Careful with that jacket
13:24Dry cleaning costs a fortune
13:28Dad
13:30We need to talk
13:31Oh, you're absolutely right, son
13:32Take a look at these college brochures I picked up for you
13:35They're from the top Ivy League colleges
13:37How would you like to go to Columbia?
13:41Why would I want to go to Columbia?
13:43I don't even speak Spanish
13:52That's funny
13:54Keep your sense of humor
13:55No matter how smart you get
13:57People always love a man with a sense of humor
14:00Yeah, that's good advice
14:01But, Dad, let's see
14:01Oh, one more thing before I forget
14:03I ran into an old detective friend of mine
14:05Who went to Harvard
14:06And I told him all about your good grades
14:08And he's arranged for a Harvard recruiter
14:11To come to the house to talk to you
14:12But, of course, if you'd rather go to Yale
14:14It's all right with me
14:15No pressure
14:25Oh, hi, Rachel
14:26Hi, baby
14:27Oh, if you're working on your novel
14:29I won't bother you
14:30Oh, no, that's okay
14:32I'm 800 pages from the end
14:34So a few minutes with you won't hurt
14:36Come on
14:42So
14:45What's on your mind?
14:50Is something wrong?
14:53Well, yeah
14:58Do you want to talk about it?
15:02Yeah
15:05Today?
15:09Well, there was this little mistake on my report card
15:13A mistake?
15:15Yeah, Rodney figured out a way to make up phony report cards on his computer
15:20And he gave a bunch of his guys straight A's
15:26Ooh
15:29Do you know what kind of grades you really got?
15:32Mostly C's and a couple of B's
15:35Well, that sounds pretty good to me
15:38Yeah, but it's not good enough for Dad
15:41Oh
15:43Well
15:45What are you going to do?
15:46Well, I tried to tell Dad yesterday
15:49But every time I did, he gave me a present
15:54So here's what I was thinking
15:56I'll study real hard
15:58And on my next report card
16:00I'll get straight A's
16:02And that way
16:03No one will get hurt
16:10Well, that is a plan
16:14Or
16:15I could just tell him the truth
16:19I like that plan
16:21I had a feeling you'd say that
16:25You have nothing to be afraid of
16:27If you just tell the truth
16:29Yeah
16:30It'll be a lot worse if Dad finds out from someone else
16:34You know, Eddie
16:36You're a lot brighter than people give you credit for
16:49Oh, what's the matter with my little Richie?
16:52He just started crying
16:53Well, he's either wet, hungry, cranky, or tired
16:58So change him, feed him, tickle him, and put him to bed
17:05Come on, my little man
17:09Hi, honey
17:11Hi, babe
17:11Where's Eddie?
17:12He's out on the porch
17:13Hey, Eddie
17:14Come in the kitchen for a second, son
17:17What's all that?
17:18It's a personal computer system
17:20I bought it for him
17:24Yeah, Dad?
17:25Look what I got you, son
17:27Your own computer system
17:29Comes with all this software
17:30A color monitor
17:31And it even has a modem
17:35Dad
17:37I've got to tell you something
17:38And I don't quite know how to explain it to you
17:40Well, try me, son
17:42But go slow
17:42I'm not as smart as you are
17:48My report card was a fake
17:50Just a second, son
17:51I thought you said your report card was a fake
17:52What'd you really say?
17:56I said my report card was a fake
17:58Don't keep saying that
18:01Rodney did it on his computer
18:04He gave all of his friends straight A's
18:09It's a fake?
18:11Well, I tried to tell you
18:12But you never gave me the chance
18:14That
18:15I had nothing to do with it
18:17Here's my real report card
18:27Eddie
18:28This is your best report card yet
18:30Carl, look
18:31Four C's and two B's
18:35And no A's
18:39Yeah
18:40Guess I'm stupid
18:49Maybe I'm the one that's stupid
19:01Yeah?
19:02Uh, it's me, son
19:04Can I come in?
19:06Sure
19:13Edward, can I talk to you?
19:15Yeah
19:20Son, I
19:22I just wanted to say I'm sorry
19:25I'll let you down, Dad
19:27Edward, you didn't let me down
19:30It's just that I overreacted to the report card
19:34You made me proud of you by telling me the truth
19:36I know that wasn't easy
19:39This was the first time I ever got to see what it felt like to be smart
19:43And it really felt good
19:46You and Mom were proud of me
19:48And I was even looking forward to going back to school on Monday
19:52But now it's back to being stupid Eddie
19:58Son
20:00Look at me
20:02You are not stupid
20:04You may be a little undisciplined at times
20:07Well, no, let's face it
20:09You're very undisciplined
20:11But son, you're not stupid
20:15You've just convinced yourself that you're not smart
20:18I get a lot of help from Laura
20:20Well, now, don't worry about your sister
20:23Edward, you just brought home your best report card ever
20:26And there is no doubt in my mind
20:28That you can do even better
20:32You really think so?
20:35Son
20:38I believe
20:39That you can do anything you want
20:42If you work at it
20:45I wouldn't be pushing you so hard if I didn't think so
20:49You know, son
20:51Your grandfather and I never went to college
20:55We wanted to
20:57But it just didn't work out that way
21:01I guess the reason why I got so carried away
21:04Was because I want you to be the very first Winslow ever
21:07To come home with a college degree
21:11Well, I want to go to college too
21:13And I know how important it is to get a good education
21:17And I hear the college babes are really fine
21:22Well, you keep trying
21:24And you'll find that out for yourself
21:30I'm proud of you, son
21:33You did good
21:37Thanks, Dad
21:39It's...
21:40You did well
21:41I learned that in English class
21:45I stand corrected
21:47Dad
21:47You weren't really serious about sending me to Columbia, were you?
21:51You do know there's a drug war going on down there
21:57Son
22:07So how's Eddie?
22:09Eddie is fine
22:10And I've decided not to put so much emphasis on grades
22:15So does this mean no more report card, lady?
22:19Absolutely
22:21Puts too much pressure on the kids
22:22Besides, it was costing me a fortune
22:27From now on
22:29I'm going to let the kids go at their own pace
22:31No more pushing
22:35There's a Mr. Stevens at the door
22:37He says he's a recruiter from Harvard
22:39Oh, no, I forgot
22:41I got to tell him he's way too early for Eddie
22:43Oh, let me tell him
22:44I want to talk to him anyway
22:45About Richie?
22:47He's only nine months old
22:49No, I want to talk to him about me
22:51He's cute
22:56So, Harvard, huh?
22:58Oh, my God
22:59I want to talk to him on the roadzig
23:01Mmm
