"After a word from our sponsor, we'll return to GANG‑UP!"
(Word)
"And now back to GANG‑UP!
Today, we have arranged an interview with a character whom we know you will recognize."
"What's your name, kid?"
"Jim Lunetto, sir."
"Sit over there in that chair, kid."
"Yes, sir."
"So you're the punk who's wanted for makin' all the girls swoon when you talk, eh? You look like the type. Brown, wavy hair, brown eyes, big muscles. . ."
"Yes, sir."
"I hear you've been picked up a couple of times for "rowdy" parties and playing your guitar too loud. Is that right?"
"Er. . . ah, yes, sir."
"You're accused of a long list of violations including once losing your bathing suit during your gym period, winning a blue ribbon in a recent art contest which qualifies you for the national contest, being an assembly co‑chairman of Student Council, a Prom co‑chairman, the business manager of Westwords, member of the Senior class play cast, V‑show, a member of the football and gymnastics' squad, and being in M‑club."

"Yes, sir."
"Also, you're interested in making your career acting or some related occupation in radio or television, and you're planning to go to Miami university in Florida and major in advertising or drama."
"Yes, sir."
"I've heard other things about you, among them that your pet peeve is hypocrites‑people who criticize something and do it themselves; that you think Maine West is great and the teacher‑student relationship very good; that you are enjoying your senior year best because of being better acquainted with the school and its rules; and that you've learned the only way to get anything accomplished is to dig in and do it."
"Yes, sir."
"I've also heard that you love clothes, but you won't wear something unless it's "in style," and, although you're Italian, you hate pizza and love lobster. What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Guilty!"
