Next we see the family's progress through the obstacle course of media celebration. Delilah is an overeager guest on The Dating Game, Bill poses in bed for Esquire, and Lance poses in the buff for Screw. It is like watching a Woody Allen parody of Andy Warhol's too familiar conceit that in the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes...

Recall the night that Rock Star Jim Morrison paid sexual obeisance to Jimi Hendrix on the stage of Steve Paul's nightclub, the Scene. Watch Warhol shrug as a woman invades his Factory, takes out a pistol and shoots a hole through the foreheads of seven stacked Marilyn Monroe portraits-just a few years before Andy himself would be shot by another female intruder.
