Take Me Home Tonight Page #7

that you were smart and funny and honest.

I thought you were different from everybody

else. But you're not.

You're just like all these other scared

little boys.

All right, hey. Who's it gonna be? Who's

steppin up to the plate tonight.

Who wants a shot at the title?

I'll do it!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a

contestant. The Mattinator. Franklin!

What are you doing?

I don't know.

Clear the way. Clear the way.

No, Matt. Please don't do this, ok!

You don't have to prove anything to these people.

Whoever thinks Matt's not gonna do it,

place your bets with Benji.

- And anybody...

- Don't.

Listen to me. You don't wanna do this, man.

Let me do it for you.

You have a great life ahead of you. I

got nothing. Matt, don't do this!

God damn it!

Ladies and gentlemen, a round of applause

for Mr Goldman Sachs.

Shut the f*** up and drive!

- Deal!

- Matt don't do this!

Why are you doing this?

Please don't do this, Matt. Oh my god.

I'm Matt Franklin. I work at Suncoast

Video at the mall...

...and I still live with my parents!

You suck!

I don't know what I'm doing up here.

I'm scared. And you know what...

I have been so afraid of my life, that I

have missed my life.

But I'm like all of you. We're

all scared!

I mean c'mon. Admit it.

We're all trying to be something that

we're not.

But tonight, all of that changes.

Tonight, I'm not afraid. Tonight, I got

one thing to say to all that bullshit!

F*** it.

Kyle... Kyle... I'm begging you.

Please don't let him do this.

No, honey. It's actually really safe.

Relax. He's gonna roll down this hill

right, you see the bend...

...it actually goes up hill, right. You

know how gravity works, right?

He's just gonna stop. It's gonna be

gentle.

And, it's gonna be choice!

Look! Look! I'm telling you, that's my

brother and I love him...

...and I don't want you to do this!

Oh... did I say it was going to be choice?

I did, so cool out!

Yeah, let's make some noise for

Matt Franklin!

On three!

Three!

Oh sh*t! Oh Sh*t!

Sh*t!

Matt!

A my god.

Holy christ.

Oh sh*t!

F***!

Oh my god!

F*** me! F*** me!

Sh*t. Help!

F***!

- Give me your truck!

- Honey, the road is not supposed to do that.

- Give me your f***ing keys!

- Relax.

- Don't f***ing touch me.

- I did not know the road bends like that.

I'll drive.

Matt!

Matt!

No, no no.

Are you ok? You ok?

Holy Sh*t!

- You were the ??

- I rode the f***ing ball!

- Oh hello.

- Thank god.

Matt!

Take him.

Matt, don't ever do that again,

you hear me!?

That's not a problem.

Can I have your phone number?

I just want to take you out to dinner.

Or like a movie.

Just hang out with you.

Matt you were a loser in high school.

Now you're just a loser who rode the

ball and f***ed me!

Are you happy?

No.

I'm so sorry I lied to you.

I'm so sorry, Tori.

I'll leave you alone now.

I promise.

Matt!

And that was pretty impressive.

Matt. Hey Matt!

My friend Matt Franklin!

So it all worked out!

You were happy when you read

that letter tonight.

- No I was not happy.

- Yes.

- I was not.

- Yes you were.

- I was not happy.

- I saw it. I just want you to admit it!

What? Admit what?

That I don't want my baby to leave

the nest?

Is that why you're mad at me?

- I'm canceling the movers, Kyle.

- Whoa, what does that mean?

You know what it means.

Honey, you said yes tonight.

- Yeah I know.

- Oh sh*t, Wenders.

Don't do this to me.

I'm begging you don't, don't do it.

I'm doing it!

You just screwed with my heart.

You know what? I don't know what the hell

I'm gonna do with myself now.

Hell I don't know what to do with myself while

I'm thinking about what to do with myself.

You know, that's what college is for.

- There's a lot of this.

- No, not right now.

And there's also a lot of this...

You're beginning to make a lot of sense.

We should... probably say goodbye, before

I screw this up again.

- Ok.

- Ok.

- That was bold!

- That's the scariest thing I did all night!

- Who wants breakfast?

- Yeah... yikes!
