A young woman wears a low-cut dress that reveals cleavage. Women wear short skirts that reveal bare thighs. A man finds a pregnancy test in the garbage and suspects that his college-aged daughter may be pregnant. A man spills a drink on another man's lap and tries to dry it off.

A man drives into a street where he is hit hard by another car (we see the crumpled front fender of the car and the man's arm in a sling).
