Jim Baker:
I was just upstairs, and I couldn't sleep. I feel like a real jerk, honey. We forgot your birthday. I bet you're really P.O.'d, huh?
Samantha:
No, it's okay. I'm not really all that upset anymore.
Jim Baker:
This wedding is really turning this entire house inside out. And I just came down to tell you that we did remember.
Samantha:
Thanks, Dad.
Jim Baker:
Happy birthday. [Sighs] Is something else wrong?
Samantha:
No, why?
Jim Baker:
I don't know, I just get the feeling that something's bothering you. Something other than your birthday.
Samantha:
No, I'm fine. Really.
Jim Baker:
I think I know what it is. It has to do with a certain guy? I know, honey. I know. We're all upset that Ginny's marrying a bohunk. What's the matter?
Samantha:
[Sighs] I meant Jake.
Jim Baker:
Jake? Wait a minute. I thought she said his name was Rudy.
Samantha:
Forget it.
Jim Baker:
Forget what? Who's Jake?
Samantha:
He's a boy, Daddy. It's nothing. Okay? Just forget it, please.
Jim Baker:
Come on, Sam. We're not communicating.
Samantha:
It's extremely embarrassing, okay?
Jim Baker:
What's embarrassing?
Samantha:
Sitting in the dark with your dad, telling him about your love life.
Jim Baker:
I'm afraid you lost me again, Sam.
Samantha:
Jake is a senior, and he's beautiful and perfect. I like him a real lot, and he doesn't like me. Okay?
Jim Baker:
Oh.
Samantha:
And he's got this incredible girlfriend. I'm just this ridiculous dork that's following him around like a puppy.
Jim Baker:
Why do you think you're a dork? I don't think you're a dork. I don't think Mom thinks you're a dork.
Samantha:
Mike thinks I'm a dork.
Jim Baker:
Mike is a dork.
Samantha:
But so am I.
Jim Baker:
Well, if it's any consolation, I love you. And if this guy can't see in you all the beautiful and wonderful things that I see, then he's got the problem.
Samantha:
I know. It just hurts.
Jim Baker:
That's why they call them crushes. If they were easy, they'd call 'em something else.
Samantha:
But if I were Ginny, I'd have this guy crawling on his knees.
Jim Baker:
Well, let me tell you something about Ginny. Now, I love her as much as I love you. But she's a different person. Sometimes I worry about her. When you're given things kind of easily, you don't always appreciate them. With you, I'm not worried. When it happens to you, Samantha, it'll be forever.
