Trama di American Graffiti
Curt e Steve sono stati assegnati ad un prestigioso college. Ma mentre Steve è sicuro della partenza Curt è titubante su questa prospettiva futura. Per tutta la notte prima della partenza Curt cercherà di incontrare una ragazza su una Thunderbird bianca che non sa neanche chi sia, mentre Steve cercherà di rimettere in piedi il rapporto con la sua ragazza scalfito da qualche sua affermazione di troppo.
