 | Season 6 / Episode 22: - Independence Day (2) Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: The next day Winnie and I came home. Back to where we'd started. It was the fourth of July in that little Suburban town. Somehow though, things were different. Our past was here, but our future was somewhere else, and we both knew sooner or later we had to go. It was the last July I ever spent in that town. The next year after graduation I was on my way. So was Paul! He went to Harvard, of course. Study law, he still allergic to everything. As for my father, well, we patched things up. Hey we where family for better or worse, one for all, and all for one. Karen's son was born that September; I got to say I think he looks like me, poor kid. Mom she did well, business woman, board chairmen, grandmother, cooker of mashed potatoes. The Wayner stayed on in furniture. Wood seemed to suit him; in fact he took over the factory two years later when dad passed away. Winnie left the next summer to study art history in Paris. Still we never forgot our promise. We wrote to each other once week for the next eight years. I was there to meet her when she came home. With my wife and my first son eight months old. Like I said things never turn out exactly the way you'd planned. Growing up happens in a heartbeat, one day you're in diapers, the next day your gone, but the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul. I remember a place, a town, a house, like a lot of houses, a yard like a lot of other yards, on a street like a lot of other streets, and the thing is after all these years I still look back with Wonder. |
 | Season 4 / Episode 17: - When Worlds Collide Norma Arnold: [as she walks to the other end of the kitchen to retrieve something] I went shopping for you today. Kevin Arnold: You did? Norma Arnold: Uh-huh. Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: [as Norma reaches into a large brown paper bag] Face it. The woman loved me. Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: [while Norma approaches, holding something behind her back] She knew me better than anyone in the world. Which was, of course, the problem. Norma Arnold: Look! [Norma holds up a pair of white briefs] Underpants! Your favorite kind! Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: [as Kevin reacts with horror] She knew too much! |
 | Season 4 / Episode 1: - Growing Up Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: Growing up is never easy. You hold onto things that were; you wonder what's to come. But that night, I think we knew it was time to let go of what had been, and look ahead to what would be - other days, new days, days to come. The thing is, we didn't have to hate each other for getting older; we just had to forgive ourselves for growing up. |
 | Season 3 / Episode 19: - The Unnatural Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: Maybe that's not exactly the way it happened, but that's the way it should've happened and that's the way I like to remember it and if dreams and memories sometimes get confused, well that's as it should be. Because every kid deserves to be a hero. Every kid already is. |
 | Season 3 / Episode 7: - The Family Car Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: And so we finally got our new car. It wasn't red, it wasn't a convertible, heck, it wasn't even a Mustang. But it was brand new. And it was pretty cool. 'Course, Dad got his shot at king-for-a-day... and we were happy for him. But that afternoon, I began to understand what Dad had been going through. There was more to that old car than fuel pumps and crankshafts. There was a part of all of us in that car. The places we'd gone, the things we'd done... the family we had been. The family that was moving on. And for the first time, I understood the value of what my Dad had put into it. And why it was so hard to let it go. |
 | Season 1 / Episode 1: - Pilot Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: It was the first kiss for both of us. We never really talked about it afterwards. But I think about the events of that day again and again and somehow I know that Winnie does too, whenever some blowhard starts talking about the anonymity of the suburbs or the mindlessness of the tv generation. Because we know that inside each one of those identical boxes, with it's dodge parked out front and it's white bread on the table and it's tv set glowing blue in the falling dusk, there were people with stories. There were families bound together in the pain and the struggle of love. There were moments that made us cry with laughter. And there were moments, like that one, of sorrow and wonder. |
| Season 1 / Episode 1: - Pilot Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: There's no easy way to say this... I grew up in the suburbs. |
 | Unknown Episode: Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: When you're a little kid you're a bit of everything; Scientist, Philosopher, Artist. Sometimes it seems like growing up is giving these things up one at a time. |
| Unknown Episode: Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: Things never turn out exactly the way you planned. I know they didn't with me. Still, like my father used to say, 'Traffic's traffic, you go where life takes you' and growing up happens in a heartbeat. One day you're in diapers, the next you're gone, but the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul. I remember a time a place, a particular fourth of July, the things that happened in that decade of war and change. I remember a house like a lot of houses, a yard like a lot of yards, on a street like a lot of other streets. I remember how hard it was growing up among people and places I loved. Most of all, I remember how hard it was to leave. And the thing is, after all these years I still look back in wonder. |
| Unknown Episode: Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: All of our young lives we search for someone to love. Someone that makes us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope. All the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there's someone perfect who might be searching for us. |
| Unknown Episode: Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: I wanted to tell her everything, all the set backs all the screw ups. But hey, I wasn't. |
