Ben's Movie is episode 25 of Season 5 of Growing Pains.
Summary[]
Ben casts himself as the star of his own video-movie "The Horror". The plot involves a baby alligator which grows to gargantuan proportions after being flushed down the toilet, leaving the fate of the world in the hands of a lonely, neglected little boy (Ben, of course). Though Maggie thinks that the film is Ben's special way of expressing his frustrations in life, Jason is closer to the truth when he determines that the epic is merely an excuse to feature Laura Lynn in a skimpy (1-piece) bathing suit. The family decides to watch the entire film and make their own conclusions. Ben invites his parents to do the final scene, which they do. In the end, it was revealed that Ben's film was for a cinematography project at school, and Laura appreciated getting a chance to act and starts to date Ben.
