00:01This is it. This is it. This is life. The one you get to go and have a ball. This
00:10is it. This is it. Straight ahead and rest assured you can't be sure at all.
00:16So while you're here, enjoy the view. Keep on doing what you do. Hold on tight, we'll muddle through one
00:25day at a time. So up on your feet, somewhere there's music playing. Don't you worry, love. Just take it
00:36like it's off one day at a time.
00:38One day at a time.
01:08Row after row, a clean, low mileage car. So folks, if you can't sleep, worried about that clunk you're a
01:15-driving, y'all come on down to Tex O'Toole's Night Owl Jubilee and take advantage of a big pre-dawn
01:22discount.
01:23But y'all hurry before I take my wife and kitties off to church. Always feel better if I've helped
01:30a fellow human being before I offer my thanks to the Almighty.
01:34And now back to our feature film starring Hoot Gibson and Smiley Burnett.
01:58Mom?
01:59Julie.
02:02I'm sorry, Barbara.
02:04What are you doing up?
02:08I couldn't stop thinking about Julie running away.
02:14Join the club.
02:17I never thought I'd miss her so much.
02:21You know, she used to talk in her sleep.
02:23Pete! Pete, no!
02:25No, stop it, Pete!
02:26Pete! Pete, stop it!
02:28Stop it some more!
02:32I used to lie there getting jealous until I caught her with one eye open.
02:37That's our Julie.
02:39I guess now she'd say,
02:41No, Pete, no, no.
02:43I'm sorry, I can't go play miniature golf with you.
02:45I promised Chuck I'd run away with him.
02:50I'm a fan.
02:53Damn him anyway.
02:54Mom, it's not all Chuck's fault.
02:57I know, I know, I know.
02:58He's really a pretty straight guy.
03:00Well, he took Julie and me to his church picnic, and he was great in the sack.
03:06Sack race, Ma.
03:07Sack race.
03:11It made you smile.
03:12It's worth something.
03:15Oh, my darling.
03:18I'm very glad you got up.
03:22I feel very alone.
03:25David would have come down.
03:27Yeah, I couldn't ask him.
03:28He's, uh, flying out to California this morning to consult on a case.
03:36Oh, Barbara, it's all so frustrating.
03:40You live your life, you make mistakes, you try to learn by them.
03:44When you try to pass that knowledge on to your kids, they not only don't learn, they resent you for
03:48it.
03:49But let Chucky Poo, from his 19 years of wisdom, say anything, and it's gospel.
03:54Why?
03:55I guess it's because he says what she wants to hear.
03:57Come on, Barbara, do you really want a parent who tells you what you want to hear?
04:01Yes, sometimes.
04:04Oh, Mom, it's frustrating for kids, too.
04:07First you say, grow up, make your own decisions.
04:10Then when we do make our own decisions, you say, what did you do that for?
04:13I went out and bought my own t-shirt with my own money, and you made me take it back.
04:18I'm the only girl in school who doesn't have a t-shirt with something dirty written on it.
04:23I'm sorry.
04:25I apologize.
04:27Huh.
04:28It all seems so unimportant.
04:30Come on.
04:31Let's go to bed.
04:32Mom, you're not listening.
04:34You ask me about it, and then when we start talking, you say, let's go to bed.
04:38I'll bet when Julie wants to talk, Chuck doesn't say, let's go to bed.
04:48Even money.
04:53Who is that?
04:54What's the big idea, Ms. Romano, getting your super out of bed at 4 o'clock in the morning
04:58to fix a leaky faucet?
05:00I mean, I put in an 18-hour day as it is here around here.
05:04I mean, I don't get any overtime.
05:06Snyder, I don't have a leaky...
05:07Shh.
05:09I am just trying to protect your reputation from nosy ears.
05:13What do I want?
05:14What do I want?
05:14I want to give you the news that came in over to CB.
05:18Rest Stop Rosie was wheeling in on 35, and she eyeballed a fun house.
05:23Who?
05:23Rest Stop Rosie.
05:25She's a lady truck driver.
05:26She can downshare 14 gears and roll a cigarette all at the same time.
05:30Oh, listen.
05:31I rigged an aerial on the roof.
05:32We can plug in a CB down here.
05:35Rest Stop Rosie?
05:36Ah, she's a beautiful person.
05:38Drives in high heels.
05:40Anyway, she spotted the fun house.
05:43Fun house?
05:44The van.
05:47Chuck's van.
05:48Where?
05:48When?
05:48Now relax.
05:49Like I told you, Rest Stop was coming in on 35, and that's when she passed the van, see?
05:53But she didn't know then that we wanted it.
05:55Now she does.
05:56She went back to check it out.
05:57I can probably signify it right now.
05:58Now, break a 1-9, this is Super Stud.
06:06This is Super Stud calling Rest Stop Rosie.
06:09Come in, Rosie.
06:1114 gears.
06:13I wonder if she likes a double clutch.
06:16Hey, good buddy, Rest Stop here.
06:19Pass the word to Carrot Top.
06:20I checked out the fun house.
06:22Where?
06:22Where's the van?
06:23Who's Carrot Top?
06:24That's your mom.
06:25Here, you talk to her.
06:26Um, hi.
06:28Uh, Rest Stop?
06:29Press the button.
06:30Oh.
06:32Um, hi, Rest Stop.
06:33This is Julie's mother.
06:34Carrot Top.
06:35Never give your right name.
06:36Schneider.
06:36Go ahead.
06:37Um, hi.
06:39This is Carrot Top Rest Stop.
06:41Um, uh, where's the van?
06:43Let up the button.
06:44Uh, good buddy?
06:45Let up the button.
06:46How come she has a hand?
06:47Let up the button.
06:48Oh.
06:49Um, where's the van?
06:50The fun house.
06:51The fun house.
06:52I'm not gonna say that.
06:52The fun house.
06:53Let up the button.
06:54Let go of the button, honey.
06:58It's parked on the side of the road.
07:00Um, it has leopard spots.
07:03No, it's got tiger stripes and a sign that says honk if you love Jesus.
07:12Uh, listen, Rest Stop, I think what you got there is a revival van.
07:17Oh, sorry, Carrot Top.
07:19Well, keep looking.
07:2010-4, super stud.
07:2410-4, Rosie, and let us know if you've seen anything, huh?
07:27Mom, we're gonna find her.
07:29I'm really sorry, Ms. Romano.
07:31I, uh, I really thought we found Julie, you know?
07:34Yeah.
07:36I really am sorry.
07:38I'm causing you nothing but misery.
07:39Oh, that's not true, Dwayne.
07:41You're trying.
07:42Well, I mean, I could have checked that out.
07:44That's no big deal.
07:46I tell you what, I'll, uh, I'll let you know if I hear anything, huh?
07:50Dwayne, have you been on that thing all night?
07:52Oh, well, you know me.
07:53I mean, I'm night people.
07:57Thanks.
07:59Schneider, you really love Julie, don't you?
08:02I'm, uh, I'm fine of Julie.
08:04I mean, I'm fine of her.
08:05I don't have any kids of my own.
08:07And, uh, and you, you people, uh, you're two weeks behind in your rent.
08:12What?
08:14Mm-hmm.
08:21Uh, well, thank God the rest of the tenants don't have leaky faucets at 4 a.m. in the morning.
08:25I, uh, I probably have to sit up all night with my plumber's helper, and he's got a face...
08:38Oh, Barbara, what is Julie doing out there all alone?
08:42She's not alone.
08:43She's with Chuck.
08:44And there's two other people that they picked up.
08:46That's another thing.
08:47What does she know about them?
08:49Who are they?
08:50She trusts everybody except me.
08:54Damn it, what is she trying to do?
09:25Oh, hi, sunshine.
09:28How are you this morning?
09:32Oh, I'm great.
09:34I'm great.
09:36How are you?
09:37I'm cold, I'm tired, I'm stiff, and I'm hungry.
09:41Oh, and I'm so glad to be here.
09:45And I need a shower.
09:50It's not you, it's them.
09:53What's the time?
09:54Can you ask what time it is?
09:56I'm starving.
09:58Oh!
10:00Ow!
10:01Watch it, stupid ass!
10:03I'm sorry.
10:04What are you doing?
10:04You're stepping on my foot there.
10:06What do you think you're kicking?
10:06What do you think you're kicking?
10:07What?
10:07I lost my face.
10:11Hey.
10:12I lost my toothbrush.
10:14Hey, man.
10:16Use ours.
10:19Uh, no thanks, ma'am.
10:22Where's my boot?
10:23Oh, and I was using it as a pillow.
10:25Right.
10:27Oh!
10:28Hey, I like your beads.
10:30Did you make them?
10:31No, Chuck did.
10:32See, each one represents a date.
10:34This is for the bike-a-thon, and this is for the sock hop, and this is for the church
10:38pillow.
10:40Hey, where are you guys from?
10:44Indianapolis.
10:45Thrill City.
10:47Uh, uh, uh.
10:50How long have you two been on the road, anyway?
10:53Ten months.
10:54I split a year ago when I was 15.
10:57You're only 16?
10:59Yeah.
11:00It's the way I do my hair.
11:04Where did you two meet?
11:05In L.A.
11:06Doing pornos.
11:09She was in porno movies?
11:10Not her.
11:11Me, man.
11:13The director said I was naturally photogenic.
11:18Control yourself.
11:22Anyway, you going to L.A.?
11:23Maybe I can give you a reference.
11:25Oh, uh, no thanks.
11:25I mean, I have a job, uh, washing cars.
11:28Oh.
11:29Some job.
11:32Hey, who needs work, anyway?
11:33You can always pick up a buck here and there.
11:36Yeah.
11:37All you gotta do is stand around in a nice neighborhood, and somebody's gonna give you money to go take
11:42a bath.
11:44That's begging.
11:45You don't have to beg.
11:46The world is full of opportunities.
11:48Hey, the world is a crock.
11:51Not if you need somebody you love.
11:53Love is a crock.
11:57I'm hungry, baby.
11:59Hey, you guys got any food stamps?
12:02No.
12:03Forget it.
12:05Hey, let's go out to a diner and have a big feed, huh?
12:07Oh, hey, we're kind of watching our money now.
12:09You got money?
12:10How much?
12:12Oh, not much.
12:14Well, all you need is a quarter.
12:16A quarter?
12:16Yeah.
12:17You just sit down at the counter, and you order some ham and eggs.
12:22And then you wait till some guy next to you comes in and orders just coffee.
12:26Then you switch to checks on them.
12:31Let's go eat, huh?
12:34We'll be right out.
12:35All right.
12:36All right.
12:40What do you want to pick them up for, anyway?
12:42Well, they're paying us three bucks a night.
12:43They haven't paid yet.
12:45Come on, Chuck.
12:47Is that what we want?
12:48To be like them?
12:49Eh, eh, eh.
12:52No.
12:53No, of course not.
12:55Well, come on.
12:56Be honest now.
12:57We agreed always to be honest, okay?
12:59Now, you wanted to be free.
13:01Well, so did you.
13:02But not like them.
13:04Julie, we didn't break away to be bums, and you know it.
13:07We took off to do our own thing.
13:09When are we going to start doing it?
13:11We're doing it now.
13:12Washing cars?
13:13Oh, hey.
13:14Come on.
13:15Would you give me a break?
13:16I mean, this is just a start.
13:24Okay, look, Julie, you said be honest, right?
13:27Are you sorry you ran away with me?
13:30Chuck, I'm not sorry.
13:32Well, I just kind of thought it would be nicer.
13:34Oh, hey, come on now.
