June: Honey, I'm worried. Beaver just hasn't been himself since he bought those craz# rock-punk books and started tearing up his shirts and sticking pins in his nose.
Ward: Now dear, don % get yourself in a dither. It's just a phase the lad's going through.
June: A phase!Now Ward, listen — tomorrow he says he's going to poke holes in your golf bag and wear it to school over my wedding dress! You're his father, tell me what to do!
Ward: Honey, I'd say let that boy rock 'n'roll.
June: Yeah, well, Isay waste the fucker.
