Milk tastes better this way. You drive me insane. Why are you wearing shorts and a tie? High school graduation pictures. What do you mean? Graduation pictures...you know. They take the picture from here up. They don't take a picture of your legs. Are all your exams finished? I just have my math final. Kevin. Beck, don't worry. Math is a breeze. I've got to go. Hi, Dad. Bye, Dad. Don't slam the door!...Thanks. Hi, Dad. Why are you up so early? Where's my coffee? What, this? Is this yours? I'm sorry. That's OK. I'm late anyway. I'll get coffee at work. What's that?
Hey, look, a coupon...two for the price of one...I know, put it on the list.
We should get more cookies. Gee, they want to know everything--my interests, hobbies, sports, awards, on and on...I'll be here all night. Do you think this college thing is a good idea? Yeah, for me it is. It's the only way I'm going to get anywhere in the music world. When are you going to give up junk food and eat something healthy? When healthy food tastes as good as cookies and peanut butter. Oh, good night. I hope I can make it, Mom. I am late for school. Don't drink from the carton!
Look, Matt, success takes time. I'm going to make it. That's why I'm going to music school. Music school...What am I going to do while you're in music school? We had a relationship, you know? We still do. What's happening to us? You have two jobs; I have two jobs. You have to take care of your father. There's no time. I'm sorry, Matt...It's hard to find time. A real relationship takes time, you know? I know...It's late. I have to be up early for work tomorrow. All right, I'll take you home. So, about our date on Thursday...? I'll pick you up at seven, OK? Sounds good. This is really crazy, Rebecca Casey. Good night, Matt. U0103 Oh, good. It's here. Welcome to the Boston School of Music, where your musical career begins. The Boston School of Music has given me everything that I wanted in a school. The Boston School of Music has just been my home. And, because of that foundation, I'm able to be what I want to be. What's goin' on, Beck? Sorry. Is it too loud? A little. Turn it down so you don't wake up Dad. The faculty is very high quality, and I think students have some wonderful opportunities. So, are you going to this school? Yeah...if I get accepted. I'm applying to other colleges, but this is my first choice. Hey, they are pretty good. Yeah, this school is one of the best...
U01 Rebecca’s Dream No! Yes! You're wrong. I'm right-and you know it. I have to go. Rebecca, we have to talk. Not now, Matt. I'll wait right here till you're done. Matt, you don't have to wait for me. Yes, I do. I'll be right here. It'll be a couple of hours. All right. Bye. Where are you going? The front door is over there. I have to use the employees entrance. Excuse me, the Gold Room? This way? Thanks. Hi, Steve. Hello, Rebecca. We're almost ready. Listen, I need to change. There's a ladies' room over there. I'll be right back. Hi, Jessica. How are you? Good. Hello, Hello. Welcome to the Gold Room. I'm Rebecca Casey and this is Steve Davis. Here's a song I wBiblioteka Baiduote. I call it 'Traveling Light.' Why don't you wait out in the lobby. Here's your share. Twenty...thirty...forty...and five. Forty-five. Good thing I have a day job. Good thing we both do. We'll do better next time. Rebecca, I have something to tell you. There isn't going to be a next time, for me. What? I'm tired of this. My wife's expecting. The bills are piling up. This (waving the cash) isn't a salary. It's peanuts. But, Steve, we're getting lots of calls...We're playing at a wedding next week... I want to spend my weekends with my wife, not at weddings for people I don't know. Steve, you shouldn't, we've worked so hard. You know how I feel...It's always the same old story: no money, no appreciation. Sorry, Rebecca, but this is it for me. You'll find another piano player. Bye. Take care of yourself. U0102 So, you're mad I waited, right? No, I'm not angry. So, what's wrong? Steve says he can't take it anymore. He's quitting? Maybe he's got the right idea. Look, I'm not quitting. I have to find another partner. Rebecca, you're banging your head against the wall. You're never gonna make it in the music business. It's too tough. Why are you so negative? I'm realistic.
U02 Differences Kevin, I can write my songs on a computer. They have a computer lab . It opens up the possibilities of song composition... What's the possibility of getting some food in this house soon? I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow. Put what you want on the list. I can't believe how many forms I have to fill out. I can't believe we're out of cereal. Put it on the list. We're almost out of peanut butter... I just bought that jar.
It's my application to the Boston School of Music. I have to mail it today.
Oh. Not another school application. Yes, another school application...By the way, does Kevin ever tell you how his final exams are going? No, he doesn't tell me anything...I try to talk to him But... He has a final today. I don't even know if he studied for it. He won't graduate if he doesn't pass his exams. I'll talk to him. I have to go! Your lunch is in the fridge. Do you have enough change for the bus? Yes, I have some, thanks. Becky...don't slam the door. Thanks. Sandy. Hey, girl. You just made it. Is everything OK? Yeah, I was up late last night. With Matt? No, with this. Look... What is it? It's a brochure from the Boston School of Music. I sent my application in this morning. Good for you! This place looks expensive. It is. But it'll be worth it...if I get accepted. And if you don't get in? I've got my backup schools...maybe I'll get into one of them. How many colleges are you applying to? Four... Four? Why so many? That's a lot of work. And a lot of money, just to apply...But I've been dreaming of this for a long time. Your dreams are so...big, exciting. I mean, my dreams are real simple get married, have a family, stuff like that. I don't know, I can't explain it...I just want to know everything I can about music. I'll get my degree and make something of myself. Well, when you become a big star and you get your first hit song, don't forget your friends here at the factory. Me? Forget? Never. I'll even send you a free copy. You're all heart. Hello! Dad! You're home early.
