    "Fair"
    Like all teenagers, Richie has reached the point where he feels responsible and mature enough to leave home. Howard and Marion are not too keen on this idea but Richie clearly wants to be independent and so, he moves out to share an appartment with his older brother, Chuck. (Randolph Roberts).

    At first, Richie thinks that it's great being away from home and not having to worry about parental authority but when Chuck's buddies are constantly at the apartment, which is extremely untidy, and Richie finds it impossible to study, he begins to wonder whether the comforts of home may not have been better after all.moreless
