The Bet[]
Duncan Fletcher is at the mall, discussing about his school's spring dance with his two friends. They make a bet about bringing a date to the dance. There he meets Hallie Richmond, the daughter of President George Richmond. Duncan chooses Halley to go with him to the dance, unaware that she is the president's daughter. He approaches her at the hat store, but then he tries to walk away. Halley notices him and asks him which hat looks better on her. Duncan replies, saying that he doesn't work there. But Halley still wanted his opinion. He tells her that both hats look good on her and suggests that either hat she buys would look great on her. They both introduce each other. Halley quickly notices that secret service agents are looking for her, so she makes a run for it. But not before Duncan asks her if she could go to the dance with him. She gladly accepts and tells him her address.
At Duncan's house, Duncan asks his father if he could take the company car. His father says no, but Duncan takes the company car anyway.
