Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1991 Road Trip Plot comedy-drama written by John Hughes, directed by Peter Faiman, and starring Ed O'Neill in the title role.As a favor for his new divorcee girlfriend Natalie (JoBeth Williams), working-class construction company owner Dutch Dooley offers to pick up her troubled son Doyle (Ethan Embry) from his elite boarding school and take him home for Thanksgiving. Upon arriving at the school, Dutch quickly finds that Doyle is a conceited brat and a snob who instantly looks down on Dutch and stubbornly insists that his rich father will come for him. Through great adversity, Dutch drags Doyle on a road trip home, hoping to find some way of connecting with the kid along the way. Hilarity Ensues. | |

Dutch / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: The film ends with Natalie, Dutch and Doyle at the dinner table about to begin the Thanksgiving feast. Before they commence, Dutch asks Doyle to retrieve Dutch's coat, as it contains a very special gift for Natalie. As Doyle turns to walk away, Dutch pulls the BB gun Doyle originally shot him with and finally gets his revenge on Doyle by shooting him in the butt. | |

Break the Haughty | |
Dutch / int_2af6bbeb | comment |
Break the Haughty: Much of the trip consists of Doyle's condescending and entitled worldview failing him repeatedly. Even though he's mellowed a fair bit by that point, what really puts his spoiled nature to rest is spending the night in a homeless shelter with a poor family who lost their livelihood and house, showing him that as bad as he thought he had it in life, things could be a hell of a lot worse. | |

Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: When Doyle refuses to leave his (empty) school campus for Thanksgiving, Dutch scoffs, "You gonna stay here? Watch the football game on TV? Make a turkey sandwich and hang yourself in the toilet?" | |
