[Sam goes to her mom.]

Samantha: Hey Mom?

Mrs.Clide: Yes?

Samantha: Could you drive me to the park?

Mrs.Clide: I just give you your phone back and you already ask to go somewhere?

Samantha: Logan needs to talk to me.

Mrs.Clide: No. You won't be hanging out with that bad influence boy any longer.

Samantha: Mom!

Mrs.Clide: Don't "Mom!" me. What I say goes.

[Samantha storms off to her room.]

Samantha: Oh my... GOD!!!

[Samantha calls Logan.]

Logan: Hello?

Samantha: I can't meet up. Sorry.

Logan: Why not?

Samantha: Mom says so.

[Mrs.Clide barges in.]

Mrs.Clide: Give me the phone.

Samantha: Why?!

Mrs.Clide: NOW!

[Samantha hands over the phone and Mrs.Clide puts it up to her ear, walking out of the room.]

Logan: What is going on?!

Mrs.Clide: Hello Logan. This is Sam's mother speaking.

Logan: Oh.... uh... hello Mrs.Clide.

Mrs.Clide: So, tell me. Why are you taking my daughter to parties and being a bad influence?

Logan: Ma'am I never intended on being a bad influence. We were invited to a sweet sixteen.

Mrs.Clide: Oh really?

[Mrs.Clide walks into Sam's room.]

Mrs.Clide: Samantha! Was that party a sweet sixteen?

[Samantha nods, a tear streams down her face. Mrs.Clide lets out a sigh.]

Mrs.Clide: I will drive Sam to the park in a few minutes. She'll have an hour and that's it. Got it?

Logan: Yes ma'am!

Mrs.Clide: Goodbye.

[She hangs up.]

Mrs.Clide: Sam you are lucky to be off the hook just this once!
