United States of Al, Season 1

Lizzie:
(singing) If I had a hammer.

[Lizzie destroys the beer bottles with a hammer.]

Lizzie:
(singing) I'd hammer in the morning.

Art:
Whatcha doing?

Lizzie:
Making art.

Art:
For a minute there, I thought you were breaking beer bottles with a hammer.

Lizzie:
I'm working on a mixed-media mosaic.

Art:
Ah. Why?

Lizzie:
What do you want, Dad?

Art:
I need to ask a favor.

Lizzie:
I'm listening.

Art:
I was hoping you could put together a slideshow about your brother. Maybe include some pictures of him and Al in there.

Lizzie:
For the Veteran's Post thing?

Art:
Yeah.

Lizzie:
You sure about this? Riley hates that kind of stuff.

Art:
Nah, he says he does, but once he gets up there onstage and he feels all that love and gratitude. He needs this. I sure never got an attaboy when I came back from Grenada.

Lizzie:
'Cause no one knew you went or what it was.

Art:
That was a turning point in the Cold War.

Lizzie:
It was more like the beach volleyball scene from Top Gun.

Art:
Come on, help me out here, will ya? Your brother's stuck, and we need to unstick him. You in or you out?

Lizzie:
I'm in.

Art:
Thank you. Hey, can I try?

Lizzie:
Oh, sure.

[Art destroys the beer bottles with a hammer.]

Art:
Yeah! I get it.
