Ricky Hauk has just received the news that he's being laid off from his dead-end job as a mechanic at Al's Gas Station.

Monica is hired to take inventory at the station, and she encourages Ricky to pursue his writing. When Shelley, a local college student, arrives with her snobby boyfriend Marshall, Ricky is immediately smitten. When Marshall notices Ricky's college hat, he accuses him of being a poseur, and the boys exchange words. As Marshall and Shelley leave, Ricky discovers Shelley dropped her school I.D.

Ricky's mother Ellen is frustrated to find out about Ricky's plan
