Tommy and his dad Lou always get their haircuts together on Saturday mornings. But this Saturday Dad tells Tommy to go on in and get his haircut all by himself. Lou tells his boy it's a rite of passage. To Manhood.
But Tommy senses something's up. Something's not quite right. Something's wrong.
Dad insists it's no big thing.
Tommy feels the earth quake. But he does what his father tells him. He climbs out of the Bel Air and, body trembling, walks through the door of Lenny's Barbershop all by his ten-year-old lonesome.
