Ive always liked the choice to have Stacy and Rat in the enormous chairs, emphasizing that they really are just kids trying to figure out becoming adults.
Absolutely. I always remember how this first date scene was made so awkward by those chairs. It works semi-unconsciously. In a sort of similar way how Damone tells him to play side one of Led Zeppelin 4 and he ends up screwing it up by playing Kashmir which is on Physical Graffiti
MsLuvmusic81 Sure was. Beaver was stuck in the Bowl and Eddie was being Eddie and making wise cracks about Beaver saying something like “Some stupid kid got caught in the Soup Bowl” he turned around and Beavers parents were there and he said something like. “Some poor unfortunate child got caught in the Soup Bowl” Typical Eddie. It might have been a cup but i remember this episode l.
Watched this movie for like the 100th time last Friday. Finally focused on the tv and realized it’s an episode of Leave it to Beaver that Damone is watching. Today(5 days later) I’m channel surfing and Leave it to Beaver is on. It’s that same episode called In the Soup. Definitely a weird coincidence. 😂
The scene cracks me up every time. The music when their done eating. How small and scrawny Mark looks in the huge chair. Brian Backer played that part perfectly
Mike Dimone is not a good friend. Not many people pick up on this but when Rat and Stacy leave the restaurant she thanks him but then says, " I'm just sorry your radio got stolen and that I never would have thought that could happen at such a fancy restaurant. Dimone stole it for his troubles 😆
If you went to high school back when this film was released, like myself, we had a Dumone, Rat, Stacey,etc in our school. When I look back on those days and think about what classmates of mine could have played these characters, I smile fondly.
I am the friend who does a perfect impression of Mike Damone... and you love it every time. But I still come through for you in the end. "Got any Iced Tea?"
One thing I never understood about this scene is why he wasnt just honest. If he said "hey sorry but I forgot my wallet, someone is bringing it over," literally no one wouldve cared lol.
Because the character of Mark Ratner was shy, awkward, insecure (with women) and totally inexperienced. He had no idea how to handle anything, and over-analyzed a lot.
OMG I once had an incident like this happen to me. One time I took my family out to dinner at an Outback Steakhouse restaurant and I realized I forgot my wallet. Once the bill came I noticed that my wallet was not in my purse. At least my dad and I were able to quickly go back to the house and get my wallet and return to the restaurant to pay the bill. Luckily my mom and sisters stayed at the restaurant to wait for my dad and me and pay the waiter for our dinner. Since then I never pulled another Mark Ratner incident like this again. That's why I always make sure to have my wallet with me at all times.
This reminds me of the first time I went on a date to a nice restaurant. I was a teenager. When you walk in you follow the waiter and it's polite to let the girl walk in front of you and you walk behind. Then the waiter pulls out a chair for the lady to sit and the man pulls out his own chair and sits down. That's how it's supposed to be done. But with me, I walked in ahead of the girl directly behind the waiter. He pulls out the chair and I sit down and say thank you and my date had to pull out her own chair to sit down. I didn't realize my error until years later and it's made me laugh ever since.
I mean, yeah the movie itself is definitely too awkward to watch with your parents but it was probably on cable TV all the time and maybe he misses his dad. We gotta be nice :)
Amazing film! A couple of things though- 1) This was before the days of "Free Refills". I grew up in the I remember free refills starting in the early 90s at fast food joints in southern California. So Rat is paying for those two drinks they abandon! 2) Was Rat really carrying around money for a payphone, but not his wallet? 3) WHAT THE FU¢K WERE THEY EATING?! Seriously, not one single item on those plates looks edible including the exploding garbage Damone ate when he showed up at the table.
Rat didn't need any more than a dime to make that call. as for the food, they both ordered knockwurst (German sausage) and that's usually served with sauerkraut and potatoes.. that's what we see on the main plates.. in that metal "wheel", I think I see some green beans, sliced beets, etc.. can't make out the rest of that slop.
Damone has always been an asshole. He could've subtly slipped the wallet without mention right when he got there, but decided to make it a point that he was giving Rat his wallet. Not ferda.
This choice of restaurant was an odd pick for a couple of teenagers.. Judging by the waitress' uniform, I'm guessing a Dutch or German restaurant.. Interesting nonetheless..
He's a shallow prick...he uses Rat's insecurities to make himself feel more self- confident..like he has it all together, he's got all the answers. He's a typical douche-bag type of friend, bullshitting his way through life, never owning up for his mistakes.
That's just it- Damone isn't a cool kid at his school. As Rat points out later in the movie, all the kids pretty much thought he was an idiot. And Damone knows it too. He also knows Rat is about the only guy willing to put up with his bullshit and still be his friend.

This is some deep thinking man 😆
This scene with Damone literally pops in my head every time someone asks me to do something outside of my comfort zone.
What does Mike take a bite of from their table ?
Lol definitely! I can empathize with Damone so well here
@@mikeandroid3512 either a jalapeño or peppercini
@@badgerjones8680 “hey this is great pepperoni 🙃
@@mikeandroid3512 It looked to me like some kind of pickled pepper.
Eeeeezzzz, I'm really kinda busy Rat. Great line to use on friends when they ask for things.
Very Handy 👍👌😉 even the look he does with the phone sell it like that 😂
Yeah busy watching a rerun of leave it to beaver lol he wouldn’t dare say that 😂 btw that was a good episode of leave it to beaver lol
MsLuvmusic81 Sure was.

Or if you're faking that you know how to cook, guy's are saying they left something on the stove. Ha ha ha can't move around with the phone?
My favorite line!🤣
and that was the last we ever saw of him
HIs date is giving Mike the sexy eye and Rat: "See ya later" LOL
I'm really kinda busy here... Hey, what happened. Yea, I come for the strudel. Love the way Bobby glides/ bounces in so smooth.
*Goes back to watching ‘Leave It To Beaver’* “...what happened?..”
Oh yeah, how did I not notice that was leave to beaver?
one of the greatest scenes of all time. shoutout mike man.
I remember a restaurant like that from back in the day. The candles and dim lighting, I sure there was a salad bar in there somewhere.
New Jersey?
I'm laughing at whatever it is that Damone bit into that squirted and made him have to grab the water.
We've been trying to find out for 35 years what the hell that was....
LOL!!! million $$ question
Probably an eye ball.
Broiled German Shepard testicle
Most people agree that it's a pickled cherry pepper, considering it's a German restaurant
I'm "busy" too when watching Leave it to Beaver. Great show.
I love how comically large their chairs are.
I find it funny how the chairs are so big compared to those 2 😂😂
Yes! I was just saying that to my boyfriend when we were watching it last night it's so comical the size of the chairs.
my favorite scene one of them the date . They tore up that food 😋😋

Today(5 days later) I’m channel surfing and Leave it to Beaver is on. It’s that same episode called In the Soup. Definitely a weird coincidence. 😂
It's funny when Mike says " I'm really kind of busy Rat" as he has his feet up, drinking out of a milk carton, and watching Leave it to Beaver.
Lol we've all been there, when you just want to chill and you try to make up some bullshit to not have to leave the house.
The scene cracks me up every time. The music when their done eating. How small and scrawny Mark looks in the huge chair. Brian Backer played that part perfectly
“I come for the strudel, it’s great”
One of my favorite quotes ... "I'm really kinda busy, Rat" with the Beaver in the coffee cup!
Mike watching the most memorable episode of LITB. When Beaver climbs in the cup of soup billboard.
Mike is always layed back playing it 😎
Great film.
I'm kinda busy rat. All Mike is doing is watching TV.
He’s watching “Leave it to Beaver”
Mike's actually a good friend, brings the wallet, then leaves instead of doing much flirting of his own with the girl
@M M although I wouldn't call it banging 😂😂😂😂
Later on he screws her though
Mike Dimone is not a good friend. Not many people pick up on this but when Rat and Stacy leave the restaurant she thanks him but then says, " I'm just sorry your radio got stolen and that I never would have thought that could happen at such a fancy restaurant. Dimone stole it for his troubles 😆
Michael Demos That’s a crazy interpretation, but don’t doubt that after he tries to steal Stacy later too.
@@michaeldemos6816damn I never picked up on that! Good eye
Jeeeez I’m really kind a busy…..while a classic leave it to episode is on, gotta love it!
Quite realistic how nervous Rat was and he didn't wanna mess it up. Stacy was really cute and the perfect girlfriend.
Are you in the Twilight Zone?? She was easy, wth??
@@sunlight3844agreed. I’m watching this for the first time right now and I’m like damn girl SLOW DOWN! 😂
Peter Griffin about Damone "And that was the last we ever saw of him"

So true. I also think that gor Dazed and confused somebody followed me around my entire 4 years of high school.
Same.
I must have seen that scene at least 20 times before I realized Damone was watching Leave it To Beaver. I just assumed it was an old movie.
“And that’s the last we ever saw of him.”
The music as you see the food carnage and the placement of the bill! LOLOLOL
I am the friend who does a perfect impression of Mike Damone... and you love it every time. But I still come through for you in the end. "Got any Iced Tea?"
Famous line, look and hand gesture: what happened looking at television
One thing I never understood about this scene is why he wasnt just honest. If he said "hey sorry but I forgot my wallet, someone is bringing it over," literally no one wouldve cared lol.
Nerves is the only explanation. Wanting to make a good impression and over thinking everything
Because the character of Mark Ratner was shy, awkward, insecure (with women) and totally inexperienced. He had no idea how to handle anything, and over-analyzed a lot.
It's just what nerds do.
Hey I did the same. My date gave me the same look Stacy did to him when he brought his wallet to his friend
Needs more Anne Murray music.
Peter: "And that was the last we ever saw of him."
Getting refills at a sit down restaurant has never been the same since this scene.
Family Guy brought me here. 😅
Same
me too
Me three
Me too loooool
Why was it the last we ever saw of him though
I like how he just picks up Rats Coke (or Stacey"s) drinks it after biting the pepper. Im 57 and still use the quotes from this movie with my buddies
And that was the last we ever heard of Damone
Textbook definition of Blue Falcon.

That's unfortunate. But nice recovery!
Too bad you didn't audition for Rat's character.
Did your fat weirdo son steal your money to buy new sneakers?
I forgot about those tiny red straws in the classy restaurants
LOL. I'm really kind of busy Rat.
This is how restaurants were in the old days. Bizarre.
And then when you're in your 30s and 40s, you'll be out with friends who conveniently "lost" their wallet.

You were just ahead of your time. Sadly this is pretty much the norm, today.
@@ThisEpicLife Poor grammar seems to be the norm also.
@@stumarston6812 grammar nazis are the norm as well
Thank you family guy for exposing the new generation with the wonders of classic old school film
Mike's sigh is great
What happened? I was too busy watching the Beaver climb into that bowl of soup on the billboard.
The Bratskeller in Westwood. I knew it well.
I thought it was The Tam O’ Shanter on Los Feliz Blvd.
@@jantyyaqoub2132 The giveaway is the waitress's dress - very German.
Mark I found your wallet, want it back? Lol
Damone was a good friend bringing the wallet to rat. It's disappoint that he didn't come through for her. He could at least given her a ride.
That stuff still happens. I don't know what restaurants do in that case.
You come here? Yeah, I come for the strudel, its great!
Just a couple of teens enjoying some knockwurst and cokes.
I remember watching this with my dad
Your dad is weird
I mean, yeah the movie itself is definitely too awkward to watch with your parents but it was probably on cable TV all the time and maybe he misses his dad. We gotta be nice :)
Damone brought Rat his wallet, but didn't have any tickets for Blue Öyster Cult. 😔
What the hell does Damone bite into at 1:30?
Probably an eye ball.
I was thinking a small tomato
Cherry pepper lol
That girls pzzy
@@lukemccardle2379 Really? You'd find cherry peppers at a German restaurant? Seems like more of an Italian thing.
And that was the last we saw of him
"what happened?!"
This movie was actually a movie about Damone
0:59, I wonder where this piece of music is from?
I come for the strudel it’s great....
What does Mike take a bite in a restaurant?
you want another coke 🥤🥤
I think for damone doing what he did earned the right to hit it
Always was curious what Damone bites into at 1:34? Was it something bitter ?
He is watching leave it to beaver on the TV
I was watching this last night 82 I was born in 85
You were born when time travel became possible. Such an important year...I was born in 83.’
P83 944NA my sister was born in 83
😂 I would’ve never went
What was the song playing in his car before they got to the restaurant
"Kashmir" By Led Zeppelin.
Kashmir is NOT on Led Zeppelin IV. Kashmir is on the Physical Graffiti album.
So, did Rat ever get charged for those final two cokes??
I wonder how soon after shooting this scene Jennifer Jason Leigh's dad's head got whacked off.
Damone

Yes! Carl's Jr. (Southern California) was the first to offer "free refills" in 1990.

I love the look of the waitry she looks so intimidating. Lol don't tell her no. Lol
But the waitress does seem nicr
WTF does he bite in to!!!!!!!!!!!
😂. So classic
What happened?
What was he watching on tv, does anyone know?
Leave it to Beaver episode entitled “In the Soup”
What is Dimone eating at 1:31?!?!
What does Mike take a bite out of at the restaurant ?
@@PGB19Dreally wow.
