Transcript:

Brad: Nice day. Diane: Mm. Brad: Yup. Real nice. Diane: M. Diane: Well, just go. Bye, Brant.... Dad: So. Brad, I saw you talking to Diane. How'd it go? Brad: Oh, just dandy!! I struck out for the 14 zillionth time. Luann: Maybe you're out of your league. Dad: Struck out, huh? What's she pitching curves? Brad: Exactly. Curves and change ups. If she'd just gimme a fastball right down the center, maybe I could connect. Luann: I'm surprised she hasn't given you a knuckleball. Dad: Maybe you're trying too hard...going for the home run. Try a bunt and see how she fields it. Brad: Dad, it'd be happy just to hit a foul! Luann: are you chewing a big wad of tobacco? That turns girls off. And spitting, ugh! Dad: Ok, try this: ease your stance, take her curves and don't try to connect. Go for the walk. Brad: Hm. At least I'd get to first base, then I could steal second... Luann: be sure to slide, that looks really macho. Dad: See, Brad, love is a game of patience and subtlety, just like baseball. Keep coming to bat and eventually you'll get on base. Luann: Yeah, but don't scratch your crot- Brad: Will you shut up!!!
