- Pretty good.
- You wanna take this over? I gotta go.
- Sure!
- Go ahead.
- Thanks!
- Bye, David!
- Bye!
All right. Question number two.
Seeds that are germinated in water
before they are planted will... what?
- Robert?
- Sprout roots?
Ah! David!
Nice of you to join us.
Oh, David. I have a little present for you.
Question number four.
In the history of science,
novel and innovative concepts
occasionally arise
from sudden left-field inspiration.
Miss Mack...
Could you tell us your answer
Why do nitrogen nodules
cling to the roots of plants?
Love?
Jennifer, what do you know about
nitrogen nodules that we don't?
Some bit of salacious info
- No.
- I see.
No, you didn't know
the correct answer - symbiosis.
Because you don't pay attention in class.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
There seems to be a lot of confusion on
this next question - asexual reproduction.
Could someone tell me, please
of reproduction without sex?
- Miss Mack!
- Yes?
What is so amusing?
What?
All right, Lightman.
Maybe you can tell us who first suggested
the idea of reproduction without sex.
Your wife?
Get out, Lightman! Get out!
my attitude problem with Mr Kessler.
I think Mr Kessler's getting tired
of your attitude problem.
Me, too.
Lightman. What a... surprise.
Won't you come in?
Hi!
Hi!
Sorry if I got you in trouble.
I couldn't stop laughing.
That's OK. You were perfect.
- I was?
- Yeah.
- You want a ride home?
- Yeah.
Hop on.
- So you got an F on that test today, too?
- Yep.
Guess we're both gonna be
stuck in summer school.
- Not me.
- Why not? You have to make up biology.
- I don't think so.
- Why not?
- Why not? Come on! Tell me. Why not?
- Make a left.
Why don't you come up to my house
and I'll show you?
What are you gonna show me?
I'm gonna show you.
I'll show you how you do it.
- Hi, Bo!
- Oh! Hi, Bo!
Hey, Bo! How you doin'?
My room's upstairs.
- Your parents aren't home?
- No. They both work.
A little mess.
It's OK. You should see my room.
- You're really into computers, huh?
- Yeah.
- What are you doing?
- I'm dialling into the school's computer.
They change the password every couple
of weeks, but I know where they write it.
- Are those your grades?!
- Yeah.
I don't think that I deserved an F, do you?
- You can't do that!
- Already done.
- Do you have a middle initial?
- K. Katherine.
Those are my grades.
- How can anybody get a D in home ec?
- That's none of your business.
- Can you erase this?
- No. It's too late.
What are you doing?
- I'm changing your biology grade.
- No. You'll get me in trouble.
Nobody can find out. You got a C!
Now you won't go to summer school.
- Change it back.
- Why? They can't...
- I said change it back.
- OK. OK.
Thanks for the ride.
Yeah. OK. Bye.
Bye.
Get down. Get down. You've already
had your dinner. Now just sit.
Sit! Stay!
- Don't forget to take out the garbage.
- David.
- Put that lid on real tight.
- I know, Ma.
Yes, they will carry back on the second.
Sure. I think we can really work out
some creative financing.
Oh, but you've gotta see it!
There's a Jacuzzi
in the master bedroom...
Oh, sure. We can work that out.
That is true. You'll have a balloon
payment at the end of five years.
But that's nothing.
The economy is gonna be great then.
He who dances must pay the piper.
- See you, Dad.
- I'll meet you tomorrow at 9.30. Bye.
You know, I worry about that kid.
Why?
Sometimes I think
we're all gonna get electrocuted.
This corn is raw!
I know. Isn't it wonderful? It's so crisp.
- Of course it's crisp! It's raw!
- It's terrific!
You can just taste the vitamin
A and D in here. It's great.
Couldn't we have pills,
and cook the corn?
- What city, please?
- For Sunnyvale, California.
The number for Protovision.
Yes. That's 555 8632.
Thank you. Could you also tell me
what other prefixes cover that area?
There's 399, 437, 767, 936.
Thanks.
Protovision... I have you now.
Yes?
Saul's Fish Market.
- Hi!
- Oh, hi!
What?
I've been thinking.
That thing with my grade.
- Oh, I don't know...
I can't believe I was so stupid.
I should've just let you do it.
- I don't know. It might be kinda rough.
- Why?
They might have changed the password.
Maybe they didn't. Can't we at least try?
- Damn!
- Please.
OK.
- You owe me a quarter.
- Yeah. Come on. Sorry I lost your game.
- What's it doing?
- Oh. It's dialling numbers.
- Don't touch the keys!
- I'm not touching the keys.
Excuse me.
This computer company's coming out
with these amazing new games soon.
The programs are probably
still on their computer.
So I told my system to search for other
computers in Sunnyvale, California.
They answer with a tone that other
computers can recognise. You hear?
in Sunnyvale?
- Isn't that expensive?
- There's ways around that.
You can go to jail for that.
Only if you're over 18.
Is this going to take a long time?
I'd like to get my grade changed.
Oh. That's funny, actually.
Cos...
- I told you not to do that.
- Yeah, I know.
But I figured you'd change your mind.
I didn't want you to flunk.
- Well, what did I get?
- You got a D.
- You gave me a D?
- No. You got an A.
- I was kidding.
- Oh.
Well, that's OK.
Here. Let's see what we have so far.
Excuse me.
Did you really give me an A?
Yeah.
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
Hey! You got a bank!
Gotta make a note of that one.
Might come in handy someday.
Pan Am.
- Anywhere?
- Anywhere.
- New York?
- New York. OK.
- No, Paris. Paris.
Will you be travelling alone?
Yeah... No. You wanna go with me?
OK.
- All right. Smoking or nonsmoking?
- Nonsmoking.
All right, Miss Mack. You're
confirmed on Pan Am's flight 1 14
Ieaving Chicago's O'Hare Airport
at 8.15am on 18 August.
Do we need a rental car? No.
- Do we really have tickets to Paris?
- No. You have a reservation though.
It doesn't identify itself.
Try anything.
"Connection terminated." How rude.
We'll ask it for help.
- Can you do that?
- On some systems.
The more complicated they are,
the more they have to help you out.
Now what?
Help games.
"Games" refers to models,
simulations and games
which have strategic applications.
What does that mean?
I don't know. That's gotta be them.
Turn on the printer.
List games.
Oh, my God!
So these guys can tell you
what that print-out means?
in the first place.
- Can you wait here?
- Why?
- Cos these guys can get a little nervous.
- OK.
Jim.
Oh. Lightman.
Hi, Lightman!
I want you to take a look at this.
- Hey! What's that?
- I wanted Jim to see that.
Wow! Where'd you get this?
Protovision. I wanted to see
