food. shelter. no. yes.
hello?
very little.
shredded.
she's not home. where are you?
i feel like complete shit, ferris. i can't go anywhere.
i'm dying.
i'm sick. i feel like shit. why can't you leave me alone?
we're gonna get caught. no doubt about it.
i'm not doing it.
he'll keep calling until i come over.
actually, what'll happen is i'll get caught. ferris'll escape.
you oughta be sorry for christ's sake! a family member dies and you insult me. what's the matter with you, anyway?
this isn't over yet, buster. you just make sure my daughter's out in front of the school in ten minutes. do you read me?
call me sir, goddamn it!
that's better.
i'm scared shitless, ferris! what is rooney guesses my voice!
i don't have all day to bark at you so i'll make this short and sweet.
i want my daughter out in front of the school in ten minutes. by herself. i don's want anyone around.
what'd i do?
you do it!
i changed my mind, fella. you be out in front with her! i wanna have a few words with you!
why'd you hit me?!
why'd you hit me?!
why'd you hit me?
i asked you first.
i said for her to be there alone and you freaked!
you hit me. look, don't ask me to participate in your crap if you don't like the way i do it!
i was home, sick. you get me out of bed, being me over here, make me jeopardize my future, make me do a phoney phone call on a dean of students, a man who could squeeze my nuts into oblivion and then you deliberately hurt my feelings.
oh, really?
hey, ferris? have a nice life.
stick it up your ass, ferris.
you're serious?
thanks.
why?
1958 ferrari 250 gts california. less than a hundred were made. it has a market value of $265,000. my father spent three years restoring it. it is joy, it is his love, it is his passion.
ferris, my father loves this car more than life itself. we can't take is out.
he never drives it, ferris. he just rubs it with a diaper.
it's not a piece of shit.
he knows the mileage, ferris. he has it tatooed on his wrist.
no.
how?
forget it. i'm putting my foot down, ferris. you'll have to think of something else.
are you crazy?! put the top back up!
what about rooney?
that makes no sense whatsoever.
howcome it's my dad's car and i'm taking all the risk and i have to ride back here?
hi. no.
enjoy it quick. it' s going home.
don't tell me we're not going to take the car home. please.
yeah.
shit.
we can't leave the car here!
because we can't! i want it back home where it belongs!
it could get stolen, wrecked, scratched, you name it.
what guy?
yeah, sure. whip it with a stick and piss on the hood.
do you think the car's alright?
i don't feel good, ferris. are we gonna stay long?
i think i see my dad.
you need a blood test.
if your blood's not compatible, you could produce a pinhead. the state requires a blood test.
so, you can't get married today.
if you get a blood test today.
i'm with you, babe.
i'll give you two. my mother and father.
they're married and they hate each other. you've seen them. am i right?
it makes me puke. seeing people treat each other like that. it's like the car. he loves the car. he hates his wife.
just because it happens doesn't make it right. are you comfortable with it?
they may as well be.
yeah. sure.
you could change.
i'd rather not have my family break apart, thank you.
so, i in other words, i should just sit back and watch it crumble?
so, you're saying i should run away?
let's go. abe.
ferris, let's split, please?
what is it?
i knew it was a mistake letting ferris order for us.
what is this shit?
really?
we're gonna get nabbed, for sure.
are you guys worried about nuclear war?
regardless. it's with us every day. the possiblity of global destruction.
maybe.
do you know what a nuclear winter is?
what's spooky is they still control everything. they took over when they were young and they never gave it up.
it's human nature to like what you had better than what you have.
you know, this is all very interesting but i'm starving.
i feel better now.
it's hard not to.
stop. water. want.
huh?
yeah. sort of.
i don't have to wonder. i know.
i was a tractor tire.
what were you in a previous life?
hannibal.
no. the guy who rode the elephants into switzerland.
yeah. as long as i've known him, everything works for him. there's nothing he can't handle. i can't handle anything. school, parents, the future. ferris can do anything.
that's a pretty grim thought.
i don't know what i'm gonna do.
yeah, but to do what?
nothing.
what do you think ferris is gonna do?
how does she do that? one goes one way, one goes the other.
it's getting late, ferris. i have to get the car home. i know you don't care, but it means my ass.
i know you don't care.
money. tits. please.
nothing. we return the car.
very funny.
one hundred and twenty six and halfway between three and four tenths. why? how many miles are on it now?
surgery. fire. move.
music. kiss. attack.
gesundheit. god. mercy.
the whole time i was just thinking things over. i was like, meditating. i was thinking about the future. and i realized it doesn't make and difference if the present goes to shit.
i've been thinking all day that if you could only have the use of one word, what would it be?
thank you, sloane.
if you guys only had one word, what would it be?
it's the only word you could ever use.
it's help.
the word is help.
ferris? it's not working.
the miles aren't coming off, running it in reverse.
i got a better idea. it's cool.
seventeen years and i've never taken a stand. now, i'm gonna do it. i'm taking a stand against my father, against my family, against myself, against my past, my present and my future. i will not sit idly by as events that affect me unfold to change the course of my life. i will take a stand and i will defend it. when my father comes home tonight, he's finally going to have to deal with me. good or bad, i'm taking a stand.
i took a stand.
it's okay.
i'm gonna handle it.
no, thanks. i want to deal with it by myself.
you already did it. if i need it again, i'll use it.
it's cool. i'm loose.
