The original and arguably still the best of the franchise. The Griswold family's cross-country drive to the Walley World theme park proves to be much more arduous than they ever anticipated. Will Clark ever make it and will his family survive the ordeal?

Clark has got himself and his family lost in a ghetto. He makes the mistake of stopping to ask for directions.
Clark
Pardon me. Uh, I wonder if you could tell me how to get back on the Expressway?
Gangster
Hey, fu*k your momma.
Clark
Thank you very much.
Clip 2
Audrey is on a see-saw with Cousin Vicki when the conversation takes a decidedly sinister turn.
Cousin Vicki
I'm going steady. And I French kiss.
Audrey
So? Everybody does that.
Cousin Vicki
Yeah but Daddy says I'm the best at it.
Clip 3
Rusty is talking to Cousin Dale about what video games he has. One of the titles gets lost in translation!
Rusty
Hey, you got Pacman?
Cousin Dale
[Sighs]
No.
Rusty
Uh, you got Space Invaders?
Cousin Dale
Nope.
Rusty
You got Asteroids?
Cousin Dale
No but my Dad does. Can't even sit on a toilet somedays.
Clip 4
Clark and Ellen are getting 'romantic' in a sleeping bag when they're interrupted by Dinkums. Ellen assumes his growl is that of a wild animal.
Ellen
Sparky! This isn’t… this isn't very romantic.
Clark
Mmmm, isn't it?
Ellen
No. I, I don't think there's enough room for two in this sleeping bag.
Clark
Oh, Honey. Right now we're one. One heart beating for two.
Ellen
Oh, Sparky!
[A growl is heard]
Sparky. Sparky. Wild animal.
Clark
Yeah, I know.
Ellen
Wild animal.
Clark
I'm gonna go for it, Honey.
Clip 5
Clark's done with his family's complaints. He's sick of being underappreciated and being the only one to care about Walley World. And he lets rip.
Ellen
What do you think?
Clark
[Skids to a halt]
I think you're all fu*ked in the head. We're ten hours from the fu*king fun park and you wanna bail out. Well, I'll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation. It's a quest. A quest for fun. I'm gonna have fun and you're gonna have fun. We're all gonna have so much fu*king fun we're gonna need plastic surgery to remove our goddam smiles. You'll be whistling zip-a-dee-doo-dah out of your a**holes.
[Laughs]
I gotta be crazy. I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy sh*t!
