Johnny is in a tuxedo and holding a large bouquet of flowers, attempting to climb out the window. His parents enter the room and switch on the lights.
Martha: Johnny Williams, what on earth are you doing?
Johnny: I’m sorry, Mom. I didn’t want you to find out this way. But…I’m in love.
Gerald: What?
Johnny: Yes, Linda and I are in love. We’re getting married. Please don’t try to stop us.
Martha: You’re too young—
Johnny: To be in love? To be this madly in love? No, Mom. Age is just a number. Love has no limits.
Gerald: Son, please, have you thought this through? How long have you known the girl?
Johnny: A while.
Martha: Didn’t they just move in?
Johnny: Does it matter? I’m sure she feels the same way about me as I do about her.
Gerald: You mean you don’t know?
Johnny: Well, we haven’t really spoken much before…
Martha: Johnny!
Johnny: It’s meant to be. I’ve known since I laid eyes on her yesterday.
Gerald: Boy, you come inside right now.
Martha: Yes, you’ll break your neck.
Johnny: Love fears nothing. Not age, not rejection, not even heights!
Gerald: It should fear gravity. If you do this, Johnny, we aren’t bailing you out when—
Johnny: My undying love will cushion the fall. Goodbye.
He jumps out the window and there’s a crash. His parents exclaim in fright.
Johnny: Owwwww.
Tell us: Have you ever done something reckless in the name of love? What happened?
