Roses are red, violets are violet. I got your number, so maybe I'll dial it.

This is so cool. I have a secret admirer, which means this year I'm going

have a romantic Valentine's Day.

Excuse me while I do my happy girl dance.

Dia, I feel so special. How many girls can say they have a secret admirer?

Two in this room.

You have a mystery man, too?

Yep.

Cupid must have heard me last night performing that ancient love chant.

Come here. You were singing the theme from the love boat.

It is ancient to me.

The important thing is it worked. I bet any minute two tall, good -looking guys

are walking into our lives. Hey, secret in my reach. Get my cards.

Roger?

I shouldn't have known it was you.

The envelope smelled like nachos. Oh, well. Looks like we're back on the buddy

system for Valentine's Day. The same as last year.

Last year wasn't so bad.

Oh, yeah, yeah. We went to the mall trying on clothes.

Yeah. Remember this item from Bobo's big boy shop?

Well, another year and we're still together.

Sure we are.

Because we're the three amigos.

Wherever you go, we go.

So, still on for tomorrow?

Yeah, I guess.

Boy, Cupid let me down big time.

Tamera, get past this. There's no such thing as Cupid.

Sure there is.

Good -looking fella, too. Look it up.

Yeah, right.

So you're telling me I stand here saying, Yo, Cupid, hit me with your best

He's gonna clip me one and make me think you're...

My hunky -bunky man.

I got sneaks in the dryer. Two more minutes and they'll fit a G .I. Joe.

No, no, really.

What, is it me?

Is it my hair?

You want it up?

Down?

Half like this, half like that?

How about half?

How about backing off?

Look, we both know you're only kidding.

And that's just not right, woman.

Call me.

Okay, here's the plan for Valentine's Day.

Right after school, we head straight to the movies.

And then to D -Town Express and get our karaoke on.

Is Roger coming?

Well, sure. We're the three amigos, remember?

Where are you going?

I'm not sure.

I think I have to call Roger.

Oh, good idea. And tell him, if we sing I'm Every Woman, he's not doing the lead

again.

So tell me. Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me. Tell me, tell me, tell

me, tell me.

Listen, it was annoying through the bathroom door. It's annoying now.

Valentine's Day. I hate surprises.

That's why I unwrap all the Christmas presents while you all are still

I know it was you. You should be ashamed of yourself, blaming the girls.

Yeah, right, right, right. So where were we? Tell me. Tell me, tell me, tell me.

All right, all right. Here's a hint.

It involves you, me, and the little church around the corner.

Oh, all right.

Oh, this is so saddened.

Not that I'm saying yes, but let me see now. I need a dress.

I need a caterer. Could I...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You go ahead. But shouldn't you be down on those bony

little knees first?

Lisa, we're going to the church for the annual bachelor auction.

On Valentine's Day?

All right.

I am so disappointed.

All right. Here's $500.

I'm over it.

Lisa,

the money is for charity.

Call it whatever you want. For $500, you can't hurt my feelings.

You see, every year we single businessmen offer package deals that the

congregation can bid on.

Mine includes a raised limo for the evening and dinner with Ray. That's me.

What kind of sucker would pay good money for that? You just spend the whole

amount to win me and I'll whisk you away to your favorite restaurant.

Ooh, I hope that limo can fit through the drive -thru.

Okay, maybe my favorite restaurant.

And then we'll drive by the riverfront and count the stars.

That sounds so romantic.

Just make sure you bid the whole 500.

Every year, that idiot Will Dobbins, he goes for 200.

Will Dobbins? I got his business calendar.

In March, he's only wearing a teeny little pair of Speedos.

This year, I'm beating him. Speedos or no Speedos. That's July.

Well, whatever.

This year, I'm going for 500 big ones.

This year, you're going for 210, and I'm going for a makeover.

Okay.

I can get through this.

Just another day.

Nothing special.

So I'm alone.

No big deal.

I can make it.

Oh, I can't make it.

Oh, Roger.

It's so good to see you.

Listen, Hood.

You and Tia sort of walked me through the day.

Oh, please, Louise.

Why should I?

After you were singing love songs outside my window, rolling around the

like Patti LaBelle.

And at 6 a .m.

What?

Trust me, Roger, I didn't even know 6 had an a .m.

Oh, yeah? Well, then who my mom threw a slipper at?

Hi, Roger.

Deal?

Hi, Roger.

I think your mom dropped this.

Deal. What is wrong with you?

Roger.

So it was you.

Tia, it's Valentine's Day.

If you want to mess with me, come back on April Fool's.

Oh, come on, guys.

We're supposed to be friends.

Cupid wants everybody to get along on Valentine's Day.

Roger, get back here. Oh, no, no.

I've got nothing to say to her except... Yes.

Hi, Tia.

Okay, now you two crazy kids work this out. But just make sure you're friends

again before we go to the movies.

Okay?

Movies?

I'd love to.

Hi, Lisa.

Do you have any idea where Tia went? We were supposed to go to the movies.

Well, I know she wasn't at the mall because I was all up in there spending

daddy's money.

New outfit.

new purse? Wait a minute.

Lisa, you were supposed to use that money to bid on him at the auction.

Shoot, I got $150 left. That's more than enough to snag your daddy and leave a

$100 tip in his pocket.

Roger? What are you doing?

I don't know.

I just have this irresistible urge to serenade my woman.

Roger Evans.

What?

And I love you too, Tia Mia.

Tia, snap out of it.

You can't be in love with Roger.

No, no, Tamera.

He's really very sweet.

Get this. I was cold in the movies, and there was this little old lady sleeping

nearby. He gave me her coat.

You went to the movies?

Without me?

Oh.

Oh, I guess we kind of did.

But you see, Tamera, it was Valentine's Day, and we wanted to be together, and I

guess we just forgot me.

Oh, I get it.

Tamera!

I'm really sorry.

Look, nobody in this world is more important to me than... Hey.

Come on, Smokey. Let's go karaoke.

What for?

You two are a singing duet now. You don't need me.

What are you talking about?

Guys, we were supposed to be friends forever.

And you ain't changed on me. You're in love.

Everything's different.

Love changes everything.

That's crazy, Tamara.

Yeah, we're still friends.

Not anymore.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Record your message now.

Hi. Ray, Lisa, and Tamir can't come to the phone right now.

But if you want Tia, you might want to try out our new boyfriend, Roger's

They're in love.

I mean, the three of us used to be tight. Then love came along, and then...

Dang, I gotta talk faster.

Tamir, what are you doing?

Cutting Tia and Roger out of my life.

Um... I'm going way out on a limb here, but, uh, the three of you having

problems? Oh, they're not.

I'm the one sitting here on Valentine's Day.

They've got plans.

Oh! My baby's seeing somebody? Well, who is he? Who? Who? Who? Who?

Roger.

My baby? And Roger?

Who? Oh, Cupid is just plain stupid.

I can't believe this is happening.

I mean, we were a team. You know, a threesome.

Now they're a twosome.

Mm -hmm.

Without you some.

I understand, baby.

You and Tia, you're more than sisters.

You're best friends.

And Roger has his own messed up way here.

He's been a good friend, too.

Well, Tamara, you know, sometimes friendships change.

And, honey, I know it's hard on you, but you gotta learn to change right along

with them.

Or let them go.

Yeah. Now! What?

I mean, who needs them? They seem to be getting along without me.

Fine. I'll show them.

I can get along without them, too.

No problem.

Love you.

Love you more.

Love you more than that.

Love you infinity plus one.

You're so good at math.

I'm going to let you figure out the tip.

Here are those three coats you ordered.

Who gets this one?

That's for... Oh, um, I'm sorry.

There's usually three of us.

Oh, come on, buddy, it's right this way.

Group hug, group hug.

Are we having fun or what?

Yes, I guess.

What's your name again?

Tamara, remember?

You study hall?

You loan me your pens?

Oh, yeah, my favorite pick.

You think I could have it back?

If you cooperate.

Come on, sit down.

We were kind of hoping you'd change your mind.

You mean hanging out with you?

Holly.

I have moved on.

I found a new hot thief.

Good friends.

Real friends.

Who are they?

Him and her.

You know, them.

Well, I'm going to sit over there with my two amigos.

Hey, Dobbins, only 200, huh?

Same as last year. You know, some of us will be going for a lot more than that.

Ray, this isn't all about money.

Oh, yes, it is.

Our next businessman is Ray Campbell, owner of Ray's Limos.

Ask about our flat rate to the airport.

You afraid to spend my money?

I haven't been so far.

Honey, you haven't bid on anybody all night.

My man's coming up right now.

Oh, hell, he ain't all that.

I'm saving my bingo money for someone much more my speed.

You go, girl.

Okay, let's start the bidding at... $25!

I have $25.

$50.

I have $50. Do I have $60? Forget $60. Something tell me the lady in the first

row is about to bid $100.

$55!

I have $55.

Going once.

Shoot, I knew I could have got my toenails done. Going twice.

Time out, time out, time out.

Lisa, what are you doing?

I mean, I can't just do it with all that money.

Is that a new outfit?

I knew you mean older than an hour.

Ray, now, come on now. It's not half as expensive as these shoes.

Did you spend all my money? Oh, don't worry, Ray. Now, I got plenty. I got

plenty. Now, don't be mad at me. It's Valentine's Day. We're supposed to be in

love, remember?

Can we get on with this, please?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hold your horses.

Uh -oh.

The bid was $55.

$100?

Uh, what happened?

$145.

$150. Get your coat ready.

$700.

I have $700. Do I hear $750?

Lisa, do something.

Anybody want to buy an outfit for $700?

Going once.

I know you just moved.

I wasn't talking about you.

I was talking about... Never mind.

Man, you guys are nothing like my other friend.

Ooh, Roger.

I'm feeling kind of funny.

Me too.

Maybe it's all those sweeteners I ate.

I really do miss Tamara.

Yeah, me too.

Time was we could split the check three ways.

Wait, wait, wait a minute.

You know, I always thought if two people were really in love, all they needed

was each other.

But something's missing here.

And I'm starting to wonder, are we really in love?

I've been wondering too, especially since I've been having improper thoughts

about that waitress.

I guess Brother Cupid's been messing with us.

I guess so.

It was kind of nice, wasn't it?

But now that that's over, you think you'll get your sister to split the

with her?

Roger!

Look, we really hurt her feelings.

I mean, she probably won't ever speak to us again.

Look, maybe we ought to just go home.

On Valentine's Day?

Come on. I know we may not be in love, but you'll always be my Valentine.

How about one last dance?

Excuse me, but if I sit for too long, my

finances start backing up.

Could we go now?

Sure. This isn't working anyway.

Look, I'll be honest.

The only reason why...

I invited you guys here to get back at them.

So, why don't I just pick up the check and... What is that?

Me and my two best friends.

Who I really miss a lot.

Sure doesn't look like they miss you.

Yeah, they look happy, don't they?

Yeah, they do.

Instead of me being happy for them...

I gave them a hard time about it.

What kind of friend am I?

The pen stealing kind?

Maybe you should go over there and tell them you're sorry.

What for?

The way I acted, they won't even listen.

Be strong.

time through the rain oh I know sometimes it

seems as if it's never gonna end but you'll

get through it just don't give in you can

count on me through thick and thin a friendship that

to carry on call on me I will be there

don't be afraid please believe me when

I say count on you can count on me

Having a nice time? Uh -huh.

Want some more around the city?

Oh, good idea.

The sound of the engine makes us clean.
