The Phone Call

Scott starts work at a restaurant when his paper route proves inadequate to raise the money he needs for a mail-order karate course. He has determined that this course will help him gain the self-confidence he needs to get call and ask Pam out to see a movie. Although at first just commenting on his mistakes, Becky, a co-worker, offers to help him make the crucial phone call. In the process, Scott offers insights about how Joe is abusive in his relationship with Becky.
