8 Simple Rules

I mean, the cabin at the lake

is a long-sanding 'Hennessy' family tradition

And I just really think we should take the time

to think about this, to be sure

No, -No, -No.

The 'Maeve Festival' is more than a rock festival

It's a spiritual event

Mom; Give us one good reason why you don't want us there

Actually, I'll give you: 3. 'Sex', 'Drugs' and 'Rock & Roll'

Sold!

Here comes your perfect woman

Oh, my God!

Mom; Can't you be reasonable?!

Let us go on our journey!

Oh, you're going on a journey; All right.

But you're gonna start your spiritual quest

visiting grandma in Sarasota.

This is the first plane trip we've taken without our parents

Yeah; Our first ever without dad

Look! That's mom over there with some guy!

Oh, my God! Mom's cheating on dad!

Let's get out of here

Hey! You forgot me!

I can't believe it

Who was that guy?

Running after us waving his arms? Kyle

I don't blame him. This is his car.

The guy mom was all over!

Oh, Artie. Don't you remember?

He works at the post

He took dad's old desk

That's not the only thing of dad's he took

It all makes sense now-

All the extra shifts she was pulling

That's not the only thing she was-

Never mind

Now I know why she wanted us to go to grandma's for a week

She wanted to get rid of us so she could spend time with Artie

Ew! Artie!

Yeah; I thought she was no fun anymore

but she was having plenty of fun with Artie

Ew! Artie!

She was pretty quick to cancel our annual vacation

at the cabin by the lake

I love the cabin by the lake!

I loved it more

And she took it from us

How can we not see this?

How could she have an entire relationship

right under our noses?

Kerry; Don't you see?

We were so busy with our lives, our boyfriends, our problems

Mom totally distracted us!

She's evil

Oh, my Gosh; I just remembered we left without our sandwiches

And Kyle

Should we go back? -No; I'm not that hungry

Let Kyle eat the sandwiches

I mean, I stole his car. I guess that's fair

Well; We'd better go to the airport

Oh, yeah. Let's go to grandma's just like mom told us to

You know, mom's doing what she wants to do

Let's do what we want to do

So, we don't go to grandma's. We don't go to the 'Maeve Festival'.

We're wandering like 'Wayfaring strangers'

What should we do?

Let's keep going

What?

Let's keep going

Dad; Are the girls here?

No. Why would the be here?

They left with...

him.

Kerry and Bridget drove Kyle's car,

and he had to walk all the way home from downtown Detroit.

There were times I had to run.

My sisters are carjackers

Like we all didn't see that coming

I bet they went to that 'Musical Festival'

Doubt it

We found out it's basically a gathering of militant women

who hate men

Oh, and C.J.

Oh, boy! C.J.'s gonna make a whole bunch of new friends

Dad; The girls?

I'm sorry. I'm heartsick

Why did they take off like that and how did they get your keys?

Well, Kerry sort of already had them

What?

A student driver can't drive with anyone under 21

Did you try Bridget's cellphone?

No. She shut it off

Dad; They've lied to me; They ditched Kyle

and they stole a car

This is totally out of character

You're right

Bridget never turns off her cellphone

That's not how it goes

Yeah; You nailed that one

Should we be doing this?

Yes

But dad always said running away isn't the answer

Well; It is the answer when the question is

"What's Bridget and Kerry gonna do after they catch mom with Artie?"

You know, it's not like she's actually cheating on dad

She is.

Mom and dad were supposed to be soul mates

That means, forever

I don't know if I believe in soul mates

I mean...

...what if you never find that person?

or...

...they fall in love with someone else, or..

...they die?

Maybe we're all part of one big soul

instead of everyone finding the perfect math

Oh, Kerry;

I used to have the same doubts when I was dating Kyle

You know, you're crazy

if you think someone's gonna ride into your life

wearing a white hat an make everything wonderful

Did I mention a white hat? I don't think so

Sounds like someone's into guys wearing white hats

Okay; Mom's left 8 messages

Maybe we should call her and let her know we're okay

When you're running away from home

you usually don't call mom and let her know you're okay

Bridget; Where the hell are we?

Well, well!

"Hola, las muchachas" [Hello, girls in Spanish)

The first tent I visit at the Festival and it's filled with foxes

Why are you looking at me funny?

Oh, Hey, One at a time. My harem scarem

There's enough of old C.J.'s to go around

I'm with the band

All right; Well, I really appreciate that

Yep; Thanks, Rachel.

Mom?

Who were you talking to?

Rachel Sharp

And?

And she hasn't seen your sisters either

I am so worried

Is that all she said?

Well; She said she was really concerned and that-

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did she mention me?

No. -Son of a-!!

Rory! -...gun!

I'm sorry!

I'm just so angry at my sisters for putting you through this

I can't figure this out

And I know both your daughters real well

I think we should call the Police

I didn't mean that well

It's Kerry!

Give me that. -No, no, no

Let him handle it.

She's bound to be more honest with her boyfriend

Find out where they are, and don't let on you're with us.

Got it!

Hello, Kerry!

I'm here all alone, and we're wondering where you are

He's with mom

I don't know, how she could have figured it out?

Only an idiot couldn't figure it out

Hello!

Hi, Bridget!

We're back in business

Why did your sister hang up on me? There's no one here

You want me to put grandpa on? Okay.

No, no.. I mean, they're- I mean-

I'll run over to your house and get him

Bridget! Where the hell...?-

I don't know

I guess Kyle's a fast runner

Where are you?

All right; That's enough! Just give me the phone!

All right, young lady! I'm putting your mother on.

No. I don't want to talk to mom, grandpa.

She knows why

Yes; She does

Oh, yes. She does.

Oh, ye- Listen!!

Don't worry; Okay?

We won't be crossing any state lines

Well, many state lines

I don't know what this is all about

but I'm very disappointed in your, girls.

Yeah, fine, Bridget, fine

And...

whatever you girls do...

you be careful

I love you.

So?

What did you do?

Well; I don't know

Oooh, yes; You do.

Can I ask you a question?

Uh-humm?

Are you happy?
