7th Heaven · Season 5, Episode 3
Why is Mary's car in the driveway? Isn't she supposed to be at work, or did she get fired again?!
Time for school!
What's up?
You tell us. Is this your day off?
Did you get fired?
Building burned down? Business close for an epidemic?
Uh-uh.
Quit?
I just got another job that's all. I'm working at Pete's Pizza. I just didn't like the pool hall. I kept getting the day shift, and, well, I like the night life, I like to boogie.
Is it me or is she starting to spin?
They want me to work the double shift today: 12:00 to 12:00.
Well, maybe we can do something then.
Yeah, maybe we could. Hey, I could bring a pizza home with me and I could wake you up, and we could have a midnight snack.
Yeah! Then you could sleep over in my room!
Okay. It's a date!
[to Mary, who is their waitress at a pizza place] Hey, you want to sit down and have a piece with us?
Um, no. I don't. Can I get you anything else?
Yeah. I'll have your phone number written on your underwear!
[in a taunting voice] Hey, Mary, we're saving a piece for ya!
[walks over to the table] Do you know who you're talking to? Minister's daughter. Give her a break. Behave yourself.
And if we don't?
Then you're all going to hell.
[humored] Ooooooh!
I mean it.
[about the customers harassing Mary] Let my wife handle them. She's good with those types.
Frances is your wife?
Not Frances. No one calls her Frances. It's Frankie. We've been married for a year.
But you look so young!
We are young. Frankie's your age, and I'm 21.
Yeah, I thought about getting married once, too.
What changed your mind?
I don't know. I guess I just wasn't ready.
Yeah, well, neither were we, but the baby changed all that.
I'm just gonna have a cigarette. You want one?
Oh, no, thanks, I don't smoke.
Neither did I. Well, I stopped when I found out I was pregnant, but as soon as I popped Mercy out, I lit up again.
Mercy. What a great name.
She's a great baby. She's real good, she never cries. Probably because my mother watches her most of the time. She's good with babies. It's teenagers she can't handle.
Hey. You going to bed already?
Soon. I have to get up at midnight. Mary's bringing home pizza, and we're having a sleepover! It's gonna be great!
Would you like me to set the clock alarm so you get up on time?
You're the best dad ever!
Gosh. You know...it seems like just yesterday Mary was your age.
[After Mary has been pulled over for being suspected of drinking and driving]
Look, don't ever be in such a hurry that you aren't careful. I want you to be able to have pizza with your sister for the rest of your life.
Yeah. So do I.
I love you, Ruthie.
If you loved me, you would have been home at midnight. [turns over and closes her eyes]
