We're going to find our way

together,

taking the time each day.

To learn all about those things you just can't find.

To still look forward together.

is taking your father so long?

Maybe he stopped on the way over to ruin a competitor.

You know, he hates to take time away from business.

Well, he took time off to visit Paris.

He wasn't visiting, Kate. He was trying to buy it.

Ah, that's him.

Hi, Mr. Stratton.

Oh, hi, Chrissy.

Rick! Hi, Chrissy.

Hello, Mr. Stratton.

Hey, Chrissy, what's up?

I need to talk to you.

Alone.

Why don't we go into the kitchen?

I will make us some fresh coffee.

I couldn't have said it better.

Bella, come on in.

Have a seat.

No, thanks. I won't be staying that long.

Here. I won't be needing this ring.

Why are you giving me back my friendship ring? Because we're not going steady

anymore.

Why not?

Please, don't make this any more difficult.

Chrissy, what did I do?

Well, you have to ask.

Of course I have to ask. How else will I know?

That is so typically male.

What are you talking about?

I knew you wouldn't understand.

That was quick. What happened?

I haven't got the slightest idea.

Dad, I'm almost 17 and I still don't understand women.

Welcome to the club.

Hey, see, she's back.

Hey, grandfather.

So, did you have a good time in Paris?

Oui.

Good. Kate?

Father? Philip?

Put down those parcels.

Oh, what in the world is all of this? Oh, a few trinkets from Paris.

Shall I wait in the limo? Can you think of a better place?

I'll wait in the limo.

Well, Father, can I take your, uh, hat?

Honey? Honey?

Richard, bring in the loot.

You really shouldn't have.

Oh, yeah, Grandfather, you really shouldn't have.

Which one of mine?

Hey.

Two for one sale?

In France, all the men wear them.

Go ahead. Try it on.

No woman will be able to resist you.

He hasn't met Chrissy yet.

Now, Father, to make you feel more at home, we opened a bottle of French wine.

Here's to your return to America.

A votre santé.

I know what that means. We learned that in French. That means to your health.

They told me it meant down the hatch.

Now, aren't you two going to open your presents?

Let me see here.

Aha!

Backscratcher! These are very big in France, you know.

You scratch my back, I scratch yours.

Amusing.

It's beautiful.

Thank you.

Don't you want to try it on?

Why, grandfather.

There'll be a private showing later.

Very private and much later.

Well, I'm glad you all enjoyed your presence.

I want you to be my guest this evening at the Café Versailles.

Oh, what is the occasion?

You need an occasion to live?

I'll send the limo around seven.

Grandfather, am I invited too?

No, Rick, it's a school night.

Oh, nonsense.

You only live once.

Au revoir.

Bye -bye. Au revoir.

Goodbye. Thank you again.

He's acting very strangely.

He's just in a good mood.

That's what I mean.

Here you are, Mr. Sutton.

You'll get it. Thank you, Jean -Paul.

Good evening, Grandfather. Evening, Father.

Hey, Grandfather.

Well, well, well, this is quite a layout.

Yes, very elegant.

And you like it?

This is the best nightclub I've ever been to.

The only nightclub.

Bonsoir, Mr. Sutton.

Nice to see you again.

Thank you, Pierre.

Father, if I didn't know any better, I'd think you owned this place. I do.

Well, that's why we're here.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the Club Versailles is proud to present that

Paris queen, Jacqueline.

I'd love to fall asleep.

And wake up in the arms Of someone I've been dreaming

of When I turn out my light That's what I

prayed each night To every shining star above

I knew you'd come along

To make my life a song Just like an angel from

above I'd love to fall asleep And

wake up in your arms The arms of the one I

love Le soir, tu es à moi

Le soir Chantant ta voix J 'ai ton sourire

Et tes yeux tendreux Le soir pour tous les

deux C 'est l 'instant merveilleux Où nos cœurs se

comprennent mieux I knew you'd come along

To make my life a song

Just like an angel from above.

I'd love to fall asleep and wake up in

your arms.

The arms of the one.

Very good. She's terrific.

Yeah, I like that French part, too.

Whatever she said.

Jacqueline, this is Edward, my son.

Edouard. His wife, Kate.

Tate. My grandson, Richard.

Ricky.

This is Jacqueline, my fiancée.

Well, leave it to my father to keep us waiting.

Yeah, they're not here soon. Jacqueline will be late for her show.

I really don't like any of this.

Not even my clam balls?

Honey, not your hors d 'oeuvres. This Jacqueline and my father business.

I think it's ridiculous.

Well, he's in love. Didn't you see the gleam in his eyes?

I saw the gleam in her eyes.

I think she's after his money.

Oh, how can you say that?

Easy, honey. There are women like that all over the world.

And most of them have French accents.

Stop that. I mean, that's ridiculous.

I mean, Jacqueline seems like a very nice person.

I think she's adorable.

I'd be adorable, too, if somebody bought me a nightclub.

Ricky, you're not even dressed yet.

Oh, Kate, if it's all right with you, I'll just spend the night in my room,

okay? No luck with Chrissy?

Well, I just spoke to her on the phone.

So she talked to you?

Yeah. She said don't call anymore.

Oh, I'll get it.

Oh, America.

The doors open by themselves.

How are you, Kat?

Oh, I'm fine, thank you.

It's Kate.

I like Kat.

Nice to see you again, Edouard.

Yes, nice to see you.

Ricky.

How are you, Ricky?

All right, I guess.

Excuse me.

He's not feeling well? Oh, he'll be fine. Please, come in.

So, uh, where is my father?

Eddie had to go to a business meeting.

He will join us later.

Well, while we wait for Eddie, is there anything you'd like to know about him?

His habits, his quirks, his bad investments?

How are you enjoying your singing engagement?

Not as much as my real engagement.

He's such a cute man.

He never stops making jokes.

My father?

So many people his age are what you call grouchos.

Grouchos. That's what I say, grouchos.

Jacqueline, may I call you Jacqueline?

Of course. It's my only name.

You don't have a last name.

I used to, but I dropped it a long time ago.

But don't worry, I will soon have a new one.

That's kind of what I wanted to talk to you about.

Will you excuse me, Jacqueline? I'll see how the petit fours are doing.

I like your wife.

The men in your family marry very well.

Well... So, Edouard, what are you so afraid about?

Afraid? I'm not afraid.

Oh, Edouard.

All right.

I'm a little worried.

Jacqueline, see, my father isn't exactly a kid.

Who is?

Well, he's been alone a long time.

He's kind of set in his ways.

But he's so charming, so debonair, such a bon vivant.

He reminds me a lot of my father, only older.

That's what I mean.

You should see him stomping the grapes, making the wine.

My father?

No, mine.

You see, Edouard,

I really believe that men take many more years to mature, to ripen, to

become, how do you say that in America? Juicy.

I don't think I want to hear about this.

Look, Jacqueline, what I'm trying to say is that when it comes to love... Oh,

come on.

I'll make a bet you know all about love.

Huh, Edouard?

Even if you are a little young?

Well, I... Like father, like son?

I guess it's all in the genes, huh?

You mean in the pants?

No, no, no. In the genes.

You know, passed down from generation to generation.

Exactement. Enrique will get it from you.

Yeah, probably.

But Ricky's having a little problem with his girlfriend right now.

Oh, so that's why you were so down in the face?

Yeah, it's just the lover's spat.

Well, if she spat at him, it must be serious.

No, no, she didn't actually... Where is he?

He's in his room.

I've got to talk to him. Don't go away. I'll be right back.

Yeah, but I didn't...

Say what I wanted to say.

Honey!

What's Jacqueline?

Upstairs with Rick.

Those French women are really something.

But Ricky, you have to realize a woman likes to feel special.

Jacqueline, she's not a woman.

She's 16.

She is a woman. We are all women.

From the time we start to walk, we are women.

Well, she does walk like a woman.

Let me tell you a little story, Ricky.

When I was your age, I was madly in love with a young man.

He even looked like you.

Except that his eyes were brown, his hair was black, and he was only this

A spitting image, huh?

So much spitting in this country.

Anyway, one day he stopped talking to me.

Just like Chrissy did?

Mm -hmm.

Well, that's when I discovered that in matters of the heart, you must not

be afraid to make a fool of yourself.

Oh, I'm good at that.

A sense of humor, women like that.

But what they really like, it's a man.

Who's not afraid to reach into his heart, to tear it out, and to throw it

feet?

They've sure won a lot.

That's just the beginning.

Now, if you want to get Tracy back, this is what you must do.

Wait, wait, let me get a piece of paper. Get a notebook.

Well, now I'm starting to worry. Oh, I'm sure he'll be here any moment.

Unless, of course, he forgot.

Edward.

See?

May I? Oh, of course.

Sorry I'm late, kids.

I did not go to a meeting.

I did a little shopping.

So that makes it official.

I think I'm going to cry.

I told you.

I feel

exactly the same way.

I think.

How do you feel about all this, Edward? Well, I suppose I should say

congratulations. When's the big date?

The sooner, the better.

There is no rush, Eddie.

She's right, you know, there's no rush.

What are you talking about?

I'm 83.

There's a rush.

Now, where is my grandson?

He's visiting a girlfriend.

Chaché la femme, huh?

Mm -hmm. Like grandfather, like grandson.

What is that supposed to mean? You know exactly what that is supposed to mean.

Jacqueline, would you like to get some fresh air out on the terrace? With

pleasure.

What is the French word for terrace? Terrace.

Edward, is something troubling you?

Troubling me?

You think Jacqueline is too young for me?

No. You think I'm too old for her?

No. You think she's after me for my money?

Yes.

Well, you're wrong.

Jacqueline happens to have all the money she needs.

She also owns a nightclub in Paris.

She does?

Edward. Let me remind you of something.

When you and Kate decided to get married, I was against it.

Well, that's right, but we went ahead and got married anyway.

And how did that marriage work out?

Great, perfect.

I risked my case.

I have a terrace like this in Paris.

It overlooks a duck pound.

I envy you, French, so much.

You have no duck in America?

No, I mean, you're so worldly about affairs of the heart. And when it comes

romance, you seem to have all the answers.

Oh, yes. Next to perfume, it is our biggest export.

I understand you had a nice talk with Rick.

A very nice talk, yes.

He's so in love, he wants to die.

Isn't life wonderful?

Natalie, Kate, would you come in here, please?

What's wrong?

Who do you think is going to be my best man?

So, will you join us in a glass of champagne?

Will there be enough room?

Eddie, do you think we will be as happy as they are?

Happier, no matter what it costs.

Ah, and to Jacqueline, welcome to the family.

Merci, Edouard.

Hey,

what's the special occasion?

Oh, we're just celebrating a bit.

Look. Oh, Sarkley, blue.

Did everything work out with you and Chrissy?

No.

You did not lose my plan?

Yes. On our best friend Jody, who was over visiting.

I'm in love again.

L 'amour, toujours l 'amour.
