Scene: Day. Police car parked under a highway overpass inside are a sherrif (John) and a rookie deputy (Rich)

Rich: Sure is dull out here waiting for cars to go by so we can ticket them for speeding.

John: Could be worse.

Rich: How?

John: We could have to watch re-runs of "Who's the Boss."

Rich: True that. (long silence) So did you catch the game last night?

John: No.

Rich: Probably for the best it wasn't that great. (another long awkward silence) Have you picked up a card for mothers day yet?

John: (Flatly) Mother's dead. (even more awkward silence till a van goes rocketing by) Well did you see that? Time to get to work. (the sherrif takes off in pursuit lights and siren blaring.) Phone in the description to dispatch deputy.

Rich: (using radio) In pursuit of a light blue chrysler van with out of state plates number oner seven X-ray george niner niner. Travelling eastbound on highway 1. Vehicle has bumper sticker "Proud father of Indiana University honor student"

(The van driver finally notices the police car and pulls over)

John: Okay, Rich lets take this nice and easy. We walk up and ask for licence and registration, write the ticket, and get back to the overpass. Some nice easy police type work to break up the day. (The sherrif and deputy walk over to the van. The driver of the van rolls down his window)

Driver: Is there a problem officer?

John: You do know you were speeding there don't you?

Driver: Well who doesn't speed?

John: Sure. What's your name hoosier daddy?

Driver: Rich Barton.

Rich: Hey, he's Rich. Just like me.

I think that lissa should show up at D*C at the wheel of an impeccably restored '70 Dodge Challenger with a six-packed 426 Hemi under the hood. Am I alone with this scenario?

Oh dear, a Drive reference. Slay me!

My mother always listened to oldies and I specifically remember asking her about this song when I was really little.

"Mom? Why is the man asking who her daddy is?

My poor mother.

Yes you are. Though to be fair I can see not wanting to invest the time watching yet another Minear show doomed to be cancelled by Fox.
