First Daughter Page #5

What's that one specialsecret...

- forgetting a victory?

- Still no James?

Who was I kidding?

He's not interested.

He was just taking pity on me.

Give the guy a little leeway.

Between your dad...

and your portable set

of Men in Black action figures...

the boy's taking on

a huge job here.

...and that's all you people.

On behalfofthe Redmond Knights,

I wanna thank each and every one ofyou.

What we do on the field

would not be possible...

without whatyou do offthe field.

Are you al I ri ght?

Okay, I need backup.

I real ly I i ke this guy.

What happened to all the ones you've

been kissing since school started?

When I really like a guy,

it means I'm not gonna kiss him.

All right. Long story short,

we went to school together...

and I've loved him

ever since spandex was in.

I asked him to meet me

here tonight, but...

I never thought he would.

Your offensive captain,John Young.

Give it up forbig Buck Rich

on defense.

- [ Cheering ]

- Hi, Samantha.

Welcome to Redmond.

Nice to meet you.

Excuse me.

It's always about you, Sam.

Mia, wait.

Where you going?

Supposed to hang out.

Hey, I'll seeyou later, all right?

So, Mia, did you talk to her

about rushing yet?

Not yet.

Hey, did you invite her to our party?

You still wanna invite her

afterwhat happened at the last one?

Are we supposed to salute

orsaythe Pledge ofAllegiance?

Hands off the roommate's personals.

Only I can touch 'em.

Dude, can't believe we're partying in,

like, Dorm Room One.

"Hey, Mia, what's she like?"

"Get to see her naked?"

"Can we all just stand in line

to kiss her ass?"

I'm so sick of all things Samantha.

[Man ] Does she have a boyfriend?

She is so hot.

- [Man #2 ] Oh,yeah.

- I don't believe that's any ofyour business.

## [ Continues, Indistinct ]

What's going on, Mia?

What's going on is

this isn't working out.

It's too hard.

Is it thatyou don't like living

with all the attention, Mia?

- Orthatyou don't like living without it?

- Excuse me?

I thinkyou're used to being

the center ofthings.

As a matter offact, I am.

Naturally.

Normally.

Whatyou got going on

is a whole lot of genetic limelight.

I think thatyou're acting

really unreasonably right now.

Sowhy don'twejust step outside.

Maybe calm down.

No, I'm not counting to 1 0.

I'm notwriting up some itinerary.

Right here, right now,

let's have this out.

And for once, Sam,

say something thatyou wanna say...

and not what someone wrote foryou.

Just beyou.

Whoever that is.

This from a woman who will kiss

anyone with lips...

but saves abstinence for the one person

she really cares about?

Well, you know what?

At least I can admit I'm messed up.

You're so desperate to make everybody like

you, you let people use me to get toyou...

and then you act like

you don't see what's happening.

You let people useyou,

regardless ofwhether I am around, Mia.

You make that choice all ofthe time...

so don't blameyour

genetically lit roommate.

And don't draw on my parents.

It's not nice.

- Oh, my God.

- [ Whistle Blows ]

- [ Cheerleaders, Indistinct ]

You real ly shouldn't sleep

in that position.

It's bad for your neck.

I deserve it.

I'm the devil. See?

Oh, you are.

I wouldn't wanna be friends

with me either. Mm-mmm.

Reduced security or not.

I just have to face it.

My life will never be normal.

And what exactly

is so bad about that?

The last time I had privacy

I was in utero.

[ Snickers ] Imagine what it's like to have

yourwhole life picked out foryou.

Imagine... never being alone

and always feeling lonely.

All I everwanted

was to get mykey...

get in a beat-up little Volkswagen,

and drive offto college.

You think I'm a silly, spoiled kid,

completely devoid of gratitude.

Actually, I think I completely understand

what you're going through.

- You do?

- This one time,

I won the class spelling bee.

I couldn't get from point "A "to point "B"

without people watching my every move.

I had to avoid the press,

the paparazzi.

And the women.

My God, the women, Sam.

The number of training bras

that were left in my locker...

could fill the support needs

of an entire country.

So, listen, about last night.

You're my R.A.

It's forbidden.

I get it.

It's actually not just the R.A. thing.

Oh, the otherthing.

Most guys have to deal

with meeting the dad.

Mydates have to charm

the commander-in-chief.

Note to fathers worldwide:

I n order to keep your daughters

from getting any action...

become the president.

You were hoping to get some action?

[ Chuckles ]

You need some air?

I think I could use a little air.

I'll just go get changed.

Come on.

Shh. Shh. Shh.

- I got your shoes. Come on.

- Oh, thankyou.

[James ] Mydad used to take me

to a spot like this.

He would always say that

the world was a tough place...

and you needed total self-reliance

to survive it.

He must be proud ofyou.

Yeah, ifhe was,

he definitelywouldn't say so.

Let's sayyou do

pleaseyour father...

and you are completely successful

and completely self-reliant...

and you know that

he's proud ofyou.

Then what?

It's tough to imagine, right?

Because then you'd actually

have to figure out whatyou want.

You've thought

about this before, huh?

Every day of my life.

Excuse me.

- Let's get back in there.

- Come on. You all right?

- How doyou do that?

- What's that?

When I'm with you,

I'm just me-- Sam.

I'm not

the First Daughter.

I really like it.

You're just--

So areyou.

[ Giggles ]

All right then,

let's get back in there.

You lead.

[Bell Rings ]

You beat me.

- Oh, no, I kicked your butt.

- Thanks.

- Usually people let me win.

- Sam, you will never have to worry

about that with me.

Thankyou.

Good.

- Will you show me howyou did that?

- Mm-hmm. Excuse me.

We'll go one more time.

Just hers.

- I likeyour bracelet.

- Thanks.

It's from my dad.

It's one charm for every continent...

every country

and every election he won.

It's for all of our trips together.

- That's cool. Go ahead.

- Huh? Oh.

- [Bell Rings ]

- Oh.

- Ah.

[ Carny]

Come on, pitcher. Come on!

[ Carny Continues, Indistinct ]

Foryour bracelet.

J ust the first of all the trips

you're gonna take on your own.

Well, this is my stop.

That's your room.

I like it.

It's nice.

Spacious for a double.

That's exactlywhat I said to Mia.

- Well, I had fun.

- I had fun.

All right.

Well, I guess I should--

Me too.

Well, thankyou for tonight.

Good night, Samantha.

Good night.

[ Exasperated Sigh ]

James?

- Good night.

- Good night.

I knowyou're mad at me right now,

but I kissed him.

Oh, sorry. I'll just--

No, Sam, stay.

Really?

Yeah, really?

I really need to hang out

with my roommate tonight.

You should go.

All right.

I know I'm hard to live with.

I knowyou didn't

want to be my roommate.

Come with me.
