    Angela's Graduation
    Daughter Angela is graduating from high school and Rev Run wants to reward her for being a straight-A student by throwing her a party. Angela dreams of a blowout complete with iPod goodie bags, a $10,000 glass dance floor over the pool, and guest DJ Funkmaster Flex. Her dad, on the other hand, has less expensive visions of hotdogs on the grill and kids dancing around the pool. Although the party didn't turn out to be Angela's vision of fly, Run's birthday gift was more than anyone expected.
