INT. HALVORSEN KITCHEN, MADISON - NIGHT (1969)

One in the morning. SUE HALVORSEN (17), headband and fringed vest, eases the back door shut. Her father WALT (48), crew cut, sits under the stove light with a cold cup of coffee.

WALT
Do you know what time it is?

SUE
Don't get uptight. There was a happening at the student union. Strobe lights, a band. It was a gas.

WALT
Your mother was ready to call the fuzz.

SUE
That's a bummer. I'm sorry, really. But the band was bitchin'.

WALT
Where's your head at, Susie? You used to like Perry Como.

SUE
Perry Como turns me off. This music turns me on. It's my bag.

WALT
Next you'll tell me I'm plastic.

SUE
You're not plastic. It's the generation gap. You do your thing, I do my own thing.

Walt considers this. He sets down the cup.

WALT
Well. Sock it to me.

SUE
Dad. Nobody says that.

WALT
Go to bed. You look wasted.

SUE
Cool. Groovy. Goodnight.
