They're playing at the Hollywood Bowl

tonight, sold out.

We'll be giving away six more tickets

this morning. 75 degrees in Hollywood.

You've been listening to an hour of nonstop

power rock 'n' roll, on HollyPower 92.

- There's more.

- At the top of the hour...

here in the Valley, it's a balmy 83 degrees.

Gotta go, but first...

here's the story of my life.

I don't want to, like, start a family.

I'd get all puffed out to the max

and all, for sure!

Oh, God, gag me. How could you?

Sure, I'd be freaking-

I'd be scarfing up everything in sight.

I'm sure. I don't know.

I'd get so fat and all,

and what would happen to my zits?

They can get so grody.

And besides, it's totally gnarly birth control.

He's not so awesome.

Awesome's not the word for Brad.

- Oh, I'm sure.

- He's okay, I guess.

Who am I kidding?

He makes my mouth water.

Brad'll be at my party tonight.

Great, that'll attract every girl

west of Van Nuys Boulevard.

Your place will be packed.

Okay, so he's awesome!

God, Julie, don't be so greedy.

You know, save some for the rest of us.

Tommy is such a hunk, I can't stand it.

I mean, he is so bitchin'.

I can't even believe

you'd give Brad the time of day.

But Tommy can be such a dork, you know?

Like, he's got the bod,

but his brains are bad news.

But he is bitchin'.

You really are so lucky, Julie.

I know, but we've been going together

so long now.

I'm beginning to think I'm a piece

of furniture or something, like an old chair.

Total bad news.

I definitely need something new.

...bags off at home and hit the beach, okay?

Let's do that.

- Sounds good.

- Julie, like-

I hate these escalators.

Guys, we won't have time

to get ready for my party.

Yes, we will.

What a surprise finding you here.

Should I be at home,

waiting for the phone to ring?

I could grow old and prune up,

waiting for that.

Funny. What's your problem?

What's my problem?

Try two days and no phone calls.

I'll see you guys at the bus.

- Okay.

- That's all right.

I'm totally not in love with you

anymore, Tommy.

I mean, it's so boring.

Here.

Not too cool, Julie. I won't be bummed out.

Who else is there?

No other Val dude can touch me.

She must be really freaking out.

- I want a corn dog.

- I want a pizza.

- Diet Pepsi with French fries.

- Those are totally fattening!

I got it.

- I'm sure!

- Diet Pepsi's diet.

It'll be a great party night.

Everyone will be there.

Pass on cotillion just this once, okay?

My mom would kill me

if she found out I'd skipped out on it.

Look, this is the social event of the season.

Don't be dull.

- Where does she live?

-23727 Sierra Vista.

I'm sure. Move.

The best guys will be there.

It'll be totally hot.

- That guy is so cute!

- He is.

- Look at him!

- He smiled.

- You guys...

- His hair-

- Look how hairy that guy's back is.

- Gross!

The guy has fur all over his face, too.

My God!

What a hunk!

Oh, God, check out those pecs!

I'd go for that in a minute. For sure.

He's hot!

- He's my kind of guy.

- Aren't they all?

Most of them are.

They didn't have corn dogs, so I got-

I hate...

Hey, man, 23727 Sierra Vista.

It's a party. It is going to be amazing.

I've seen the chicks.

I know about these things.

I got a feeling about this.

It's going to be hot. I'm telling you.

And it's in the Valley.

What?

- The party's in the Valley.

- I don't want to go to the Valley.

- Trust me, I know-

- I don't want to go to the Valley.

I'm not in the mood to go there.

Come on, Julie. You know Loryn

won't let her mom wait for us.

She'll want to pounce

on the first available bod.

God. Hey, do you think

she does everything she says?

I don't know. She'll get in a lot of trouble,

though, if she doesn't watch out.

I think she does.

Who could make up,

"That stuff tastes like Clorox"?

God, gross me out!

I don't know.

I think she's lonely, you know?

When does she have the time?

- She's got problems.

- Yeah. Hormones, I guess.

- No, that's when you grow a mustache.

- Puke! Gross!

I don't know,

it's up to us to look out for her.

She is our friend.

She'd do the same thing for us.

I guess.

Okay.

- Hold still.

- God, what am I going to do?

Tommy's going to be there.

You know how he is.

He's not going to appreciate

me talking to Brad.

Get real. You're not

going through with this, are you?

I'm so sure! Brad's totally hot.

I think he's totally not.

- God, I'm so nervous.

- Okay, let's go!

- We're taking off now, guys.

- Don't you two look great!

Stacey, if I were 20 years younger, honey...

God, Dad! I won't be too late, I'm sure.

We don't want to pressure you, dear.

Just let us hear from you by next Tuesday,

okay, honey?

I'm not going away on a peace march

or something heavy like that, Pop.

- I can dig the scene. No sweat.

- I have to be home by 1:00.

We try to give Julie all the space she needs.

I know, Mom.

- 'Bye. Have a good time.

- 'Bye.

- Bye-bye.

- Have a good time.

Sarah, do you know

how much she looks like you?

I mean, you were just her age

when I met you.

Do I still look that way?

Better.

But things were sure a lot wilder then.

Different priorities, that's all.

Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll.

I tell you what.

You spend the night at my house, okay?

We'll take his mother's car...

Sounds good.

- Forget about her, Tommy.

- Don't worry about it.

Brad?

- Great party.

- It's all right.

Do you like the music?

It's okay.

- Have you tried the sushi yet?

- No. I haven't made it in there.

It won't to be easy. Anytime

you want to come back, you let me know.

I'll think about it.

- I told you to forget it.

- You'll be back.

Yeah, right.

She can't live without me.

He's totally awesome!

- Who, dear?

- Skip! Mom, you're not listening to me.

Skip's a really nice guy,

and I want him to like me...

so I just want to make sure...

Is there something I shouldn't know

that I should know?

Of course there is.

You're right. He is cute.

- I was hoping you'd come.

- Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

What about that one?

- He dresses like a dork.

- Yeah, but he's cute!

How can you like a dork?

Don't look now. Guess who?

Hello.

Good-bye.

God, he's such a total pukeoid.

He's just really bitchin'. You'll see.

Why don't you take this out now?

The guests are waiting for some food.

What was that all about?

I'm only her stepmother, and since Jim died,

she's been kind of competitive with me.

Spring-up?

Freak me out, it's him!

- Who?

- The guy with the brown hair.

Hi, Skip.

Don't be so obvious with boys.

- Hi, Skip.

- Hi, Suzi.

I'd like you to meet my mother.

- Hi, Mrs. Brent. Nice to meet you.

- Call me Beth.

It's nice to meet you.

- Skip! Lyle.

- How do you do?

Honey, the phone's ringing.

Come on, Skip. Let's go dance.

- Look at who Tommy's with.

- Who cares?

Come on.

He's totally juvenile, Stacey.

- Hi, Tommy.

- Is it?

- Yes, it is.

- What?

The most beautiful girl in the world.

- What's the matter with you, dude?

- I think I'm falling in love.
