Oh my gosh, there he is. Which one is he?

The guy in the red sweater?

Oh, you're right, Tia. He is cute. It's the guy behind him.

Ew, he's to the curb.

He's not.

Tia. Hi. Could you believe that social studies teacher today?

I mean, beauty is completely subjective.

Voltaire said, and I'm paraphrasing, ask a frog what beauty is and he will

answer.

Two great bugged eyes, a large flat mouth, and a slimy body.

That's beautiful, Anthony.

Yeah, makes me want to go eat a fly.

I'm sorry, I didn't introduce you two.

Anthony, this is my sister Tamir, Tamir, Anthony.

Hi.

Um, I wish I could stay and talk to you, but I have to get to a chess club

meeting. Anthony's the captain of the chess team.

Get out of here.

Well, it was nice meeting you, Tamir.

Bye, Tia.

Bye, Anthony.

Isn't he great?

Usually you only find guys like that in bands.

Judy,

you are going to be gorgeous in this dress.

Girl, all the men are going to be after you.

Really? Oh, yeah.

If you want, I could just throw your phone number right here in the back.

I love what you said today about beauty. It was so profound.

Thank you. And remember, tell a friend.

That sounds great. I'll see you then.

I just got a date. I just sold my first original. I just got the last yogurt.

Wait a minute. What happened?

You were all witness to the historical first sale of dresses by Lisa.

Better get my autograph now because I'm going to get an attitude later.

That's great, Lisa. And I just got asked out by Anthony.

Lisa.

Thanks for inviting me to dinner.

You're welcome, Roger.

But actually, you invited yourself.

Thanks for not sending me home.

How do you like it, Ray? Oh, uh, all right. It's exotic.

What is it?

Homemade menudo.

thing I need to do is find a catchy slogan to pull people in.

What about this?

If you're curvy or busty, say Lisa or Roger.

You are one desperate child, Roger.

I got one. Okay.

When you buy it from Lisa, your savings increase up.

Oh, I feel like it's finally my turn.

I think I'll put a big A in the yellow pages and start designing my fall line.

Be careful, Lisa. You don't want to expand too fast.

Ray, you don't have to rain on my parade.

No, it's just that 90 % of all the new businesses that expand too fast fail.

Ray, you're drizzling.

Oh, no.

What? My nose.

Well, what about it? I'm getting a pimple. Oh, well, don't worry, honey.

worry now. I'm sure I've got something that can clear it up.

You can try this.

By my date Saturday night, it's going to be the size of a cantaloupe.

Don't worry, Tia.

I'll always love you no matter how deformed you are.

Thanks, Roger.

Take it easy, Tia. If we attack this together, it won't have a chance.

We're going to scare this pimple so bad, it's going to run down and hide in

your...

Oh, I see.

Well,

it certainly is a beautiful dress.

I bet you're gorgeous in it.

I don't know. It just didn't look as good as I thought, and I didn't buy it

leave it on the hanger.

I don't see why not. Most of my clothes are on the hangers right now.

Look, is Lisa around?

I just want to return this and get my $75 back.

Yeah, well, why don't I take care of this? She may be a while.

$75.

Well, I'm really...

Sorry things didn't work out.

Just one from my rack and you'll always come back.

You're not lying.

Do you think this will work?

Yeah, for getting ready to rob a bank.

gonna see is a pimple. A pimple with eyebrows.

Oh, no. That's Anthony. What am I gonna do?

Just go.

I can't let him see me like this.

Wait a minute.

I got an idea.

Tamera, you have to do me a big favor. Oh, no.

Come on. You gotta be me. You know, I'm really getting sick of this twin thing.

Please. Yeah, I can't do that.

I don't even like this guy.

Tamera, if you liked him, I wouldn't let you do it.

Yeah. Come on. If he sees me like this, he'll never ask me out again.

What do we talk about?

Anything. Art, literature, philosophy. What do we talk about?

Please don't make me beg.

All right. All right. I'll do it. Thanks.

I'm not going to wear that, am I?

Good movie, huh?

Seemed more like a book. We had to do so much reading.

I thought you liked horror films.

Oh, I do.

I was just in the mood for something lighter, like a horror film.

Yeah.

Come to think of it, didn't that one guy look like Freddy Krueger?

The guy with the weird eyes? And the bad teeth?

Yeah, you're right. He did.

I kept waiting for him to appear in someone's nightmare.

Yeah.

What about you tonight, Tia? Oh, there is?

Oh, well, I guess I've been just going through a lot of changes lately.

Oh, do you still feel the same way about moving in with your sister?

I don't know.

What was I saying about her again?

You were saying how much you liked her and how great she is. Oh, yeah, well,

she's greater than great.

Really?

Tamara seemed kind of shallow when I met her.

Shallow? Tamara is not shallow. She's deep as the ocean.

Here are your cappuccinos.

Enjoy.

I never had a cappuccino before.

It's the first time for everything.

Um,

I got a little mustache.

Oh.

Don't be,

don't be.

I'm having a great time.

Better than chess?

Oh, yes, but chess is a great game.

Let's start with the name of the pieces.

Okay, you have your pawns, your rooks, your knights, your bishop, a king, and a

queen. Tell me more about the queen.

Okay.

The queen is the most powerful piece on the board.

She can move wherever she wants, take whomever she wants.

She controls all the men.

I was thinking of something.

What?

Babies.

Look, Ray, I said I live with you. I never said I live with you.

No, no, no.

No, I was talking about baby clothes.

Or your business.

You know, all those baby boomers out there, booming out all those babies.

It's big business.

Yeah? Yeah.

Check this out.

If babies are your passion, Then Lisa's got your fashion.

Oh, I like your thinking, Ray.

How'd you like to be vice president of dresses by Lisa?

Toddler division.

What are you looking for?

Oh, I thought I heard something.

Has Tamara come home yet?

Tamara?

I mean, Tia.

Boy, even I get us confused. Well...

You two girls switched places, huh?

Really? You mean Tamara went on a date and I didn't get a chance to grill a

What's going on? See, I thought you really liked Anthony.

Well, I just didn't feel like going, that's all.

All because of this little zit?

I didn't say anything about a zit. Thank you for pointing it out.

Well, Ray, how's that foot taste?

Let me talk to her. I'm the reason she's upset.

No, that's true. But, Ray, stay away from any words that begin with Z or

with dimple.

Mind if I sit down?

Look, I'm not really good at this.

You know, I know we haven't known each other but for a short time.

But I want you to know I think you are a beautiful young lady.

I didn't mean to point out your, um... Zit?

Yeah. I mean, no, no.

I mean, um... Look, everybody's worried about something in their looks.

You too?

I know you may find this hard to believe, but when I was your age, I had

Oh, I was so self -conscious.

The metal kind with the head strap that made you look like a Martian?

Maybe.

The point is, you just can't sit in your room worried about that, uh... You

know.

I wanted to go, but I was afraid Anthony wouldn't like me.

Are you kidding me?

He's lucky to be going out with you.

And if he can't see past just one little, um, you know, then he doesn't

to have a date.

Anthony's not like that. He doesn't care about looks. He cares about who I am.

Oh, I guess who I am messed up.

Yeah.

Happens to everybody.

But next time, you won't be so worried about that, uh, uh... You know.

I know.

Yeah. Well, good.

Anyway, I guess, uh, that's... That's it.

That's it.

That's it.

She's gonna be okay. I just gave her the benefit of my maturity.

Ooh.

All right, Mr. Maturity.

No. You were so excited, I didn't want to burst your bubble.

Oh, wait, wait, wait. Who gave you permission to protect my bubble? My

not in trouble.

I'm just trying to help.

If I'm choking on a pork chop, you can give me the Heimlich. Otherwise, I don't

need your help.

Lisa, would you just listen?

There's nothing to say.

Look, every business has its setbacks.

You knew right from the beginning I was going to fail, didn't you? I'm one of

your... statistics.

Lisa, no, no, no.

You did not fail.

Listen, success is 1 % inspiration and 99 % perspiration.

And let me tell you something. You sweat with the best of them.

Is this your pep talk, friend? Lisa, you are very good. You got a lot of talent.

Your stuff is unique. It's creative.

It's distinctive.

Continue.

She gave you the dress back.

Now you can sell it again.

I can't sell this dress.

And why not?

Because you own it now.

What kind of problem?

It has to do with a boy.

My friend doesn't know that I like him.

And I really like him.

That's a tight spot, honey, for you and your friend.

I even have a chance to go out with him next Friday night, but he thinks I'm...

It's a mess.

Oh, right.

Some of the hardest times I've had is when a guy came between me and my

You know what I mean?

Mm -hmm.

You don't want to hurt her, but you got your feelings, too.

You got to figure out who's more important, your friend or the guy.

What should I do?

Oh, I hate to say this, honey, but it's one of those things where you have to

make your own decision.

Oh, this is a mess.

Tia, wake up. No, no!

What's wrong?

I dreamt my pimple was destroying Tokyo.

Tia, remember what I told you earlier about the date?

Yeah, why?

Well, there's one thing I left out.

What?

Well... He asked you out again next Friday night.

Forgot, I guess.

A second date, and it's also my first.

Now be honest, Tamara.
