:18:00
When I used to dream
about going to college...
:18:02
this is the way
I always pictured it.
:18:03
Wait a minute. When did you
dream about going to college?
:18:06
When I used to fall asleep
in high school.
:18:09
Dad, I know how much
all this means to you...
:18:11
- and I'm sorry I lied to you.
- You don't have to lie to me.
:18:14
No matter what you do,
I'll love you just the same.
:18:17
Will you love me
no matter what?
:18:18
No matter what.
:18:19
- I'm droppin' out.
- You're droppin' out?
:18:22
You just got here.
You just started.
:18:25
I know,
but I'm not making it here.
:18:27
I don't fit in, you know?
I got one friend... Derek.
:18:29
He's got no friends.
:18:31
The girls don't like me,
the fraternities don't want me.
:18:34
The diving coach
won't even talk to me.
:18:35
Look at it this way...
:18:37
at least you're getting
an education.
:18:39
Dad, last semester
I got nothing but "Cs."
:18:42
A, B, C...
you're in the top three.
:18:44
What are you worrying about?
:18:45
I just think I'd be
a lot better off...
:18:47
gettin' a job or something.
:18:49
You never went to college.
Look how great you're doin'.
:18:51
Jason, I said it before
and I'll say it again.
:18:54
I don't care how rich
and successful a man is.
:18:56
Without an education,
he's nothing.
:18:58
I mean, stay in school.
Study harder.
:19:00
You can be whatever
you want to be.
:19:02
You want to be a loser,
be a loser.
:19:04
You want to be a winner,
be a winner.
:19:05
Jason, it's up to you.
You can do it.
:19:07
Remember, you're a Melon!
:19:10
Dad, that's easy for you to say.
You don't have to do any of it.
:19:16
OK, then.
I'll do it with you.
:19:20
What do you mean,
you'll do it with me?
:19:22
I mean just what I said.
:19:24
I'm going to college.
What do you think?
:19:26
What do I think?
I think you're nuts.
:19:29
Nuts, huh? Who made the rules?
Come here. I'm going to college!
:19:32
I'm going to college!
:19:37
Let me get this straight,
Mr. Melon.
:19:39
You wish to enter
this widely esteemed...
:19:43
Grand Lakes University of ours
as a freshman?
:19:45
That's right, Dean Martin.
:19:48
- Are you comfortable?
- I'm fine, yeah.
:19:52
Oh, the chair. I'm sorry.
:19:57
This is an awkward moment
for me, Mr. Melon...
