Saturday, the day of Liz's party. May drove Ned and Peter to the party.
May: Here we are boys. Looks like there are a lot of people here. You two be careful, okay?
Peter: Yes, May.
May: I'm sure you guys will have so much fun. House party in the suburbs. Oh, I remember these. Kind of jealous.
Ned: It'll be a night to remember. Our first high school party!
Peter looks out the window. He is nervous to go in.
May: Ned, some hats are worn by men. You wear that hat.
Ned: Yeah, it gives me confidence. I have a crush on Betty so I need confidence to talk to her.
Peter: I don't know if I can do this. There's a lot of people there. I think I just want to go home.
May: oh Peter, honey, I know you've been going through a lot but I think it's good to spend some time with your peers.
Peter looks at May.
May: just do me a favor, you're not supposed to drink on your medicine. So please no alcohol. And listen I know you like Liz, give her a little kiss.
Peter gives May a confused yet embarrassed face.
May: I'm just kidding around with you. That's my job.
Peter: Funny May.
May: he's been so stressed out lately, make sure he has a good time Ned.
Ned: What helps with stress is going to a party. We should go to the party now Peter.
Peter: yeah yeah. Let's do it. Yeah. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go.
Ned and Peter start to get out of the car.
May: Peter! Have fun, call me if you need me.
Peter: I will May. Bye.
Ned: bye May.
Peter watched May leave. He's really nervous about the party. He knows Flash will annoy him. But he's excited to see Liz. And MJ if she's here.
Ned: Why were you so nervous in the car? This is our first party. We need to be cool.
Peter: I was hiding a vodka shooter. I stole it from May and put it in my sleeve. I didn't want her to see.
Ned: I thought you weren't supposed to drink?
Peter: I'll be fine.
