[Jump ahead 12 years to a 15-year old Jim riding his solar surfer.]

JIM: Yaaaa-hoo!

[An alarm rings as he hits a fence and flies through a restricted area.]

JIM: Whoo! Come on! Whoo! Ha ha ha! Whoo-hoo! [Sirens blare as Jim gets pulled over.]

JIM: [Sarcastically] Oh, great.

[We see inside the Benbow Inn, it's a busy morning with Sarah racing around trying to serve everyone.]

MRS. DUNWIDDIE: Mrs Hawkins!

SARAH: I know--refill on the purp juice. Coming right up, Mrs. Dunwiddie. There we go. That's four powdered spheroids, two lunar eclipses, and it's a big bowl of Zorellian jelly worms, for the big boy!

ALIEN BOY: Awesome!

SARAH: Enjoy. Sorry, Delbert. It's been a madhouse here all morning.

DELBERT: No problem, Sarah. Ah! My Alponian chowder with the extra solara seed. Mmm! Yum!

ALIEN GIRL: [Sniffing]

DELBERT: Hello. What brings you here...curious little one? Go away. Are your parents around? What's the matter? Cat got your--yaah!

ALIEN GIRL: [Gulp]

SARAH: Oh, they're so adorable at that age.

DELBERT: Oh, yes...deplorable. Uh...adorable! Hmm. Speaking of which, how's Jim doing?

SARAH: Much better. I know he had some rough spots earlier this year, but I really think that he's starting to turn a corner.

[The police office robots slam open the door and barge inside with Jim in tow.]

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1 : Mrs. Hawkins?

SARAH: [Drops dishes] Jim!

DELBERT: Ooh...wrong turn.

JIM: OK. Thanks for the lift, guys.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: Not so fast. We apprehended your son operating a solar vehicle in a restricted area.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Moving violation 9-0-4, section fifteen, paragraph...um...

JIM: Six?

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Thank you.

JIM: Don't mention it.

SARAH: Jim!

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: As you are aware, ma'am, this constitutes a violation of his probation.

SARAH: Yes, yes. No, I understand. Um, but could we just--

DELBERT: Um. ahem. pardon me. Officers, if I might, uh, interject here. I am the noted astrophysicist Dr. Delbert Doppler. Perhaps you've heard of me. No? Uh, I have a clipping.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: Are you the boy's father?

DELBERT: Oh! Good heavens, no!

SARAH: No! Eww! He's just an old friend of the family.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICERS: BACK OFF, SIR!

SARAH: Thank you, Delbert. l will take it from here.

DELBERT: Well, Sarah, if you insist. Ahem. Don't ever let me do that again.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: Due to repeated violations of statute 1 5-C, we have impounded his vehicle.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Any more slip-ups will result in a one-way ticket to Juvenile Hall.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: Kiddie hoosegow.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: The slammo.

SARAH: Thank you, officers. It won't happen again.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: We see his type all the time, ma'am.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Wrong choices.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: Dead-enders.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Losers.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #1: You take care now.

ROBOT POLICE OFFICER #2: Let's motor.

[The entire Inn is silent as they all stare, then conversations resume]

SARAH: Jim, I have had it. Do you want to go to Juvenile Hall? ls that it? Jim? Jim, look at me. It's been hard enough keeping this place afloat by myself without you going--

JIM: Mom, it's no big deal. There was nobody around. Those cops just won't get off my--[Sarah looks at him sternly.]

JIM: Forget it.

MRS. DUNWIDDIE: Mrs Hawkins! My juice!

SARAH: Yes, l'll be right there, Mrs. Dunwiddie! Jim, I just don't want to see you throw away your entire future.

JIM: Yeah, what future?
