.....that there was a DS episode where Arnold and Willis were getting heavily into hard-rock/metal. They would, like, spend all of their time in their bedroom after school burning incense and listening to Ozzy and Zeppelin. They even replaced their regular lightbulbs on their lamps and ceiling with orange ones. Mr. Drummond started getting real worried. He thought that the lyrics to this hard rock was providing some bad influence to the kids, or something like that. Their grades in school were slipping. Anyway, according to my friends, tension was built throughout the entire episode based upon this. Mr. D tried getting Kimberly to talk the two out of listening to that music, but it didn't work. Anyway, a big nice talk took place between father and sons and the situation was resolved. 'No more Ozzy! No more incense!, and no more colored lights!', Mr. D apparently said, or something like that. Anyway, it didn't totally stop the two from listening to (and I certainly find this HARD to believe; this is what I was told) "Goodbye to Romance" in their bedroom during the epilogue scene. Mr. D and Kimberly suddenly entered the room (Arnold and Willis were a bit worried at first), but to Arnold and Willis's surprise, the father wasn't upset at all because it was a more mellow song. Mr. D said something like, 'Hard rock's OK to listen to sometimes, as long as its not that loud'. I don't know, but the show ended something like that; the four of them sitting around the record player and mellowing-out to the song in the room just before the closing credits (no more incense was burning and the lights were normal). I don't know, being a major 'Strokes-head', I've seen just about every episode and do not at all recall anything quite like that. It's certainly not on the episode guide. If there is, though, an actual episode quite like that, can someone please tell me. Was it a lost episode or something? If so, please fill me in as much as you can or at least tell me where I can find more info on it, or where I can perhaps send for it or something (I would most certainly love to check it out; sounds like a trip). And if my friends are just pulling my leg, you 'Stroke-scholars' out there let me know as well. Man, it's just that they're saying this to me really convincingly - it's been over a year now and they haven't let up - and I'm not even close to being gullible. Not even close. Anyway, fill me in. Thanks.
