So where do we stand with this Colin thing?

Any news?

Well, I've called everybody I know that he might

have gotten in touch with.

Nobody can believe he would do something like this.

His father's devastated.

Yeah, well, he did it.

And we're left twisting in the wind.

I know, Nat.

But we got six months to find him.

Yeah, but that means, every day that goes by,

he gets further and further away.

He ought to be in Mexico by now.

He'll come back.

I know he will.

He wouldn't do this to us.

Wake up, Val.

We're cooked.

When that bondsman realizes he's not gonna get all the money out

of the club, you can be sure that

he's gonna to after my share of the Peach Pit and Dylan's.

Hey, Nat, do you remember that guy that helped Dylan

get his money back last year?

Jonesy?

Well, yeah, he's a little off, but he gets the job done.

I'll put a call in to him.

He owes me.

He better owe you big time, because we're gonna need it.

[music overheard]

[sighs]

KELLY: Thanks.

This seat taken?

Uh, I guess it is now.

Nat's really worried about losing the restaurant.

I feel so bad.

You really know how to fix things, don't you, Valerie?

Wherever you go, disaster seems to follow right behind.

Excuse me, but I think you invented Colin.

Yeah, and the minute I found out what a jerk he was,

you moved right in.

Come to think of it, every guy I've ever been with,

you've just moved right in.

I knew Colin before you guys even met.

Yeah.

So you invented him.

He's all yours.

[theme music]

Liberian freighter heading for Rio.

Puts out in three days.

You got the dough?

I'm working on it.

Better hurry up.

[upbeat bar music]

Hey, there, Keats.

You got almost everything?

Almost.

I can't believe a whole year went by so fast.

Mm-hmm.

OK, Randy, I've got two Rolodexes here.

One's got personal stuff.

The other one I'm leaving.

And please don't forget to submit

your budget proposal for the summer by the end of the week.

The administration office has been really bugging me about it.

Susan, I've already taken care of it.

Stop worrying.

Your paper will be in great hands this summer.

Namely mine.

Don't take it personally.

She's like this with everybody.

And proud of it.

So you got any big plans for the summer?

As a matter of fact, we do.

We are going to see America.

Two months on the road.

No pressure. No deadlines.

No proofreading.

Hopefully, no speeding tickets.

Sounds terrific.

Hey, did you guys hear anything about a big party this weekend?

Some prince is throwing a keg guy

this birthday bash down in Long Beach on the Queen Mary.

It's a major do.

It's all over the CrashNet.

A big party, huh?

I think we may have heard something about that.

Every Greek in Southern California

should be down there Saturday night.

BRANDON: Hmm.

Wonder who that lucky keg guy could be.

So what do you think, Steve?

Is this a great place for a party or what?

This place is awesome!

We are going to take over the whole ship.

What's the matter, Carl?

Palace of Versailles wasn't available?

Nope, booked for a Tupperware party.

Come on.

There's still a lot of details we have to take care of.

Details? Details?

Right on, man.

Happy birthday to me.

[tense music]

[phone ringing]

Belmont Gallery.

Claudia Van Eyck, please.

This is Claudia.

COLIN (ON PHONE): Claudia, it's Colin.

I've been trying to get you all week.

I know, darling, but you didn't leave a number.

Listen, um, I really need that money you owe me.

Are we gonna go through this again?

I told you, you forfeited that money

when you broke our contract.

Claudia, damn it, that's not true, and you know it.

What's the matter?

Run out of women to take care of you?

You owe me $10,000.

I want it.

I need it.

Please.

And to what prison should I send it?

Look, wire it to the Western Union office

on Third Street, San Pedro, California.

Trying to skip the country, are we?

Just send it.

I will.

But don't ask for more.

I'm not in the business of aiding and abetting fugitives.

[ship horn sounds]

Oh!

Oh, what a place for a party!

Ah.

Think it's elegant enough?

Well, if it was elegant enough for Winston Churchill, I'm sure

it's elegant enough for me.

I'd better check out the stage.

The band was very specific about what they wanted.

You the man.

Do you believe this?

Well, looks like it's going to be a Sanders-fest.

And a well deserved one, wouldn't you say?

Mm-hmm. Come on, let's go eat.

I'm hungry.

Eat?

Don't you think we should stick around here?

There's so much to do.

So let Carl do it.

Yeah, but after all he's done for us,

don't you think that'd be a little rude?

Jeez, Steve, can you find a spot left on his butt to kiss?

What's that supposed to mean, Clare?

How do you ever expect to repay him for all this?

Haven't you ever seen "The Godfather"?

One of these days, he's gonna want a favor.

And trust me, it's gonna be a big one.

Clare, Carl's not like that.

Besides, if I could afford a party like this for somebody

like me, I would.

You would, wouldn't you?

In a heartbeat.

OK.

STEVE: Woo!

BRANDON: All right.

You sure for dinner?

I'm gonna do you a favor and order in.

No, I told my mom I would meet her.

When are you going to Long Beach?

I told Susan we'd drive down tomorrow

after the traffic dies down.

What about you?

I'm going with Donna and David.

Really?

Bringing anyone special?

Hmm-mm.

Had enough of men for a while, huh?

Yep.

I'm officially single now.

Well, it should be quite a blowout.

From what Clare says, the prince is really outdone himself.

Steve always lands in the roses.

It's been like that his whole life.

That's why we love him.

Do you think he'll miss these?

No, I don't think he will.

It's quite a gift idea, though.

Not everyone has a bronzed pair of old sneakers.

Yeah, you know.

Hi, Val.

VALERIE: Hey.

Well, I will see you in Long Beach.

Bye, Valerie.

Goodbye, Kelly.

You know, it's just so nice to see things

warming up between you two.

It gives me hope for this planet.

She seems to be enjoying my suffering a little too much.

Val, the police are on this thing now.

Don't worry.

I'm sure they'll come up with something.

I really don't want to talk about it.

OK.

I'm gonna go pick up from the Dutch joint on the corner.

Do you want anything? Swedish meatballs?

- Uh-uh. - OK.

[dial tone, dialing]

AUTOMATED RECORDING (ON SPEAKERPHONE):

You have reached the personal secretary

mailbox for Valerie Malone.

Please enter your four-digit code.

You have one new message received at 3:34 PM.

JONESY (ON SPEAKERPHONE): Hey, kid.

Jonesy here.

Well, you really did it this time, didn't ya'?

See, I told you, you should be hanging out

with professional scoundrels like me, not amateurs.

Anyway, Uncle Jonesy may be in Thailand, but anyhow,

he's on the case.

He better be.

JONESY (ON SPEAKERPHONE): So you can bet your troubles

are going to be over real soon.

And oh, yeah, by the way, I do know where Dylan is.

In merry old England, London to be exact.

West End, of course.

More to come.

Sayonara, peaches.

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

I heard Jonesy's voice, and I just had

to hear the pearls of wisdom.

Uh, that's OK.

I have nothing to hide.

Did you know Dylan was in London?

News to me.

Brenda certainly didn't say anything.

Then again, I haven't talked to her in a while.

She's been on tour in Scotland.

You think they've been together?

I don't know.

London's a big town.

15 million, probably, if you take into

account the outlying areas.

I'd say chances are slim to none, but then you never know.

- Hmm. - What?

I don't know.

Brenda and Dylan together again.

Just really sorry Kelly missed the good news.

[music playing]

Your 5 o'clock with Capitol Records is confirmed at the Ivy.

And then you have a conference call.

Got it.

Oh, have you heard anything more on that party down in Long Beach

yet? - It's true.

I spoke to the Goo Goo Dolls' road manager.

He says they're playing some kid's birthday party.

Have a seat, guys.

Thanks.

Amazing, huh?

Man, that's one birthday party I'd like to go to.

Oh, that could be arranged.

We know the kid who's having the birthday party.

Actually, he's one of our best friends, Steve Sanders.

What is he, royalty or something?

Kind of.

And you guys are going?

Yeah, it's this whole weekend thing on the Queen Mary.

I guess the Goo Goo Dolls perform on Saturday.

You know, you can go if you want.

We're allowed to bring guests.

You could get me in?

Well, that's a switch.

Normally, I'd be getting you in. - Sure.

It's no problem.

Excellent.

Now, I've got something really great for you guys to hear.

Hold on.

Uno memento.

There you go.

Read my fortune.

Do you realize what you just did?

What?

Invite Erik?

You think I shouldn't have?

Donna, the guy has the hots for you,

and you just made it seem like you were interested in him.

I did not.

You're crazy.

He wants to hear the band.

Trust me, all right?

I'm right about this one.

Right.

[music playing]

Ah, Donna, here it is.

"Billboard Magazine."

We have a picture and everything.

Huh?

We have arrived.

Can you believe this?

This is for real.

Look, we're on the same page as Alanis Morissette.

You know, we can't let this go to our heads, though.

We got to keep working.

We shouldn't even be going to the party this weekend.

Uh, David, even Erik's going.

It's fine.

Yeah, well, we should work while we're there.

Maybe we could do some new storyboards or something.

- OK. - Kelly, you ready?

Yeah.

Are you guys going to talk business all weekend?

Because I want to have a good time.

You want to have a good time?

Why don't you invite a date like Donna?

Ah.

He is not a date.

Besides, he's driving down by himself,

and he booked his own room.

You have a date, Donna?

Ah, didn't you hear what I said?

Look what you started, David.

He's not a date.

He's just some horny guy that's got the hots for Donna.

Oh, God.

Oh.

Who is he?

Kel, it's Erik Budman, the guy we made the video deal with.

He wanted to hear the band.

I was just being nice.

Oh, there you go, Donna.

Just be nice.

I'm sure that's all he's after.

Whatever.

[doorbell ringing]

I'll get that.

Donna Martin?

That's me.

Sign here please.

Thanks. - Thanks.

Have a good day.

You too.

What's that?

Another birthday message for Steve?

I don't think so.

It doesn't feel like it.

It's from Dylan in London.

I didn't even know you got hold of him.

I didn't.

Nobody knew where he was.

[suspenseful music]

"Couldn't find a video camera, so I sent Steve this letter."

Wait, look at the return address.

This is where Brenda lives.

What are you guys whispering about?

Ah, just business.

Back to that, huh?

I'll be in the car, OK?

Donna, we should probably tell her.

She's going to find out tonight.

I don't think we should tell her.

I mean, we don't even know what's going on.

Why upset her?

Dylan being with Brenda is going to upset her?

Knowing Kel, yeah.

Yeah, I think it would.

There you go, Mr. Budman.

We hope you enjoy your stay aboard.

Thank you.

Oh, by the way, is my room anywhere

near Ms. Donna Martin's room?

You're right down the hall.

Excellent.

Here we are, kids.

All ashore that's going ashore.

I'm so glad it's not moving.

I really don't feel so well.

I think I better find a ladies room.

Why don't you guys check in, and I'll go with Joanie?

OK. Thanks, Susan.

Is she going to be OK, pal?

Yeah, she's been working hard.

She's just tired.

Can I help you?

Yes.

Uh, do you have a reservation for Walsh?

And Bussichio?

You and your guests are with the Sanders party?

That is correct.

It's all in order.

First class state room, and everything is taken

care of courtesy of your host.

He is a prince of a man, isn't he?

Oh, Mr. Walsh, I have a message here for a Ms. Keates.

Uh-huh.

Would you happen to know where that area code is?

202?

Yes, I believe that's Washington, DC.

Washington, DC.

Home of the president and her husband.

Thank you.

How are you feeling?

Oh, I'm OK, Nat.

Don't worry. I'll be fine.

Let's just go get settled.

OK.

We're right up there.

So, are we all set?

Yeah, yeah.

There was a message for you.

Who's in DC?

Oh, probably just this woman that

works with the presidential campaign I met at that editors

convention last week. - Mm-hmm.

And what does she want?

Who knows?

Who cares?

Why don't we go find our bed in our room?

Alrighty.

[knock on door]

Uh, just a second.

Hi.

Um, hi.

Ms. Malone?

Yes, can I help you with something?

Actually, I'm here to help you.

Jonesy sent me.

Richard Ballard, FBI.

Oh.

Can I come in?

Um, yeah, sure.

Here for this party?

That's right.

But you've got something else on your mind.

Didn't Jonesy tell you anything?

Colin Robbins.

Male. Caucasian.

5' 9".

150 pounds.

Last known address, 1954 Main Street, Venice, California.

Fugitive from justice since May 15, 1996.

And you were left holding the bag?

Very good.

Can you find him?

I haven't missed yet.

Good morning.

Morning.

Where's Steve?

Uh, he'll be right out.

Did you have a nice night?

Yeah, it's beautiful here.

Did you know that your mother and mine

were on one of its last transatlantic crossings?

Really?

Before we were born.

I have an amazing photo of them standing

by the railing on the aft deck.

My mom never told me about it.

I'd love to see the picture someday.

Well, it's back home, but I'll have it sent over.

OK, great.

Ahoy, mateys.

Hey.

Hey, good morning.

Well, hey, you two enjoy.

I have to head over to the stable

and get ready for tomorrow's match.

Never been to a polo match.

- Huh, you'll love it. - I'm looking forward to it.

- I'll see you at dinner. - Bye.

- Take care, man. - All right.

Hey, Clare, what do you suppose you're supposed

to wear to a polo match?

Well, I'm sure you'll wear your royal cufflinks.

Would you give that a rest, please?

I'm sorry, OK?

I just-- I can't believe it's your birthday party,

and the guy expects us all to go and watch him play polo.

He's throwing a huge brunch for us afterwards.

And besides, everything else he's doing for us here.

You should cut the guy a break.

It's not the same Carl you knew when you were 10 years old.

Whatever you say.

The police seem to think that Colin's

already out of the country.

Maybe.

But he need false identification for that.

And it would have to be very good.

That costs a lot of money.

Any idea whom he might go to?

I don't know.

I've been over this with the police, his parents,

his old drug connections.

No one's turned up anything.

Any old girlfriends?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's Kelly Taylor over there.

You should grill her.

Do you mind asking her to join us?

No.

It'll be my pleasure.

Hey, Kelly, can you come over here?

I want you to meet somebody.

Hi.

Richard Ballen.

FBI.

Please sit down, Miss Taylor.

Is this about Colin?

Yes, it is.

I understand that you were involved with him.

Is that true?

Look, I told him to turn himself in.

I washed my hands of him completely.

Did he come to you for money?

It was for more personal reasons than that.

Any idea who he might have approached for money?

I don't know.

His parents, maybe or his old art dealer.

Who's that?

Claudia Van Eyck.

She owns the Belmont Art Gallery in Manhattan.

She was his sugar mama.

Try her.

Claudia, huh?

She was the lady who came out here and set up his show.

He was diddling her while he was going out with you?

Isn't that precious?

Am I through here?

Thank you very much.

She was very helpful.

Oh, I'm glad you think so.

I won't let you down.

I appreciate that.

[bell dinging]

Hey, where are you off to?

Donna's.

Really?

Is she expecting you?

Of course, not.

Where's the magic in that?

You know what, man?

She just got out of a relationship.

You might want to give her a little space.

David, are you implying you don't

think I have a chance with her?

Yeah, I don't think you have a chance.

All right, man.

Whatever you say.

[bell dinging]

By the way, she hates champagne.

[knock on door]

Erik.

Hi, Donna.

I was just in the neighborhood.

Thought I'd drop by.

Can I come in?

Uh, yeah, sure.

Um, I was just about to go downstairs and meet friends.

There's no hurry, right?

Do you like champagne?

Oh, mm, actually, my record with its not so great.

Mine either.

Doesn't stop me.

[phone ringing]

Oh, excuse me.

Hello.

Hey, just tell him you're late for dinner

and your friends are wondering where you are.

Right. OK.

I'll be right down.

OK, thanks.

I'd like to drink to that wonderful smile of yours.

Oh.

I'm sorry. You know what?

I got to go downstairs for dinner

because my friends are waiting.

Oh, I thought maybe you and I could have dinner tonight.

Um, well, I suppose you could join us.

Really?

I mean, if you don't mind being with a bunch of strangers.

Of course, not.

I'm easy.

So I'll just leave this here.

Great.

For later.

OK, let's go.

[laughter]

OK, everyone.

Hang on.

I need your attention, please.

Oh, Bran, you're not going to make a toast, are you?

Well, I was thinking about it, Steve.

I had a little something prepared.

But for your sake, I'll keep this simple.

Thank you.

I love you, man.

[laughter]

Well, thanks, Bran.

I know you put a lot of time and effort

into preparing that speech, so I appreciate that.

Yeah, I did.

Hear, hear.

Happy birthday, Steve.

Now, let me pass the torch over to Dave and Donna.

I think they have a little surprise for you, young Steve.

Yes.

Steve, Donna and I, uh, did a little searching

and put this little video together for you.

You didn't.

We did.

And now, you're going to have to sweat

through what we lovingly call The Celluloid Salute to Steve.

Lights, please.

Oh, no.

Who did that?

Ah, you dug deep.

Oh.

Where'd you guys find this stuff?

Aw.

Nice teeth, huh?

Hey, Steve, as we say in Hong Kong, [chinese]

What?

What'd he say?

MAN (ON VIDEO) Which means happy birthday.

Happy birthday.

We love you. Bye, bye.

Bye, bye.

Happy birthday.

Hey, bro.

It's your 21st birthday.

Yeah, and how come we weren't invited?

I mean, was it because of that whole liquor thing?

Because if it was, you know, we have that under control now.

I mean--

Yeah, well, in honor of you, drinking milk.

And I'm drinking toxic waste, so it's all OK.

I want to be just like you.

Grow up big and strong.

Mean and vicious and ooh.

Yeah, right.

Anyway, happy birthday, bro.

Happy birthday.

Keep drinking.

[laughter]

Uh, excuse me.

Can you direct me to the Steve Sanders dinner party?

Thank you.

That's enough advice, son.

Hope you and your friends to come and have

one incredible weekend.

I love you, pal.

Steve, sweetheart, happy birthday.

And I want you to come and see me in New York for a couple

of weeks this summer.

And don't forget, your mother loves you very much.

And I think about all the time.

Hey, I know I'm in the room with you right now,

but that doesn't stop me from reading

this letter to you, Steve.

It arrived this morning from Dylan McKay.

"I couldn't find a camera, so the words

are going to have to do.

Have a great birthday, bud.

If anyone knows how to celebrate it, you will.

Miss you.

Miss everyone.

Dylan."

Happy birthday.

I love you.

(SINGING) Happy birthday

To you

Happy birthday

To you

Happy birthday

Dear Steve

Happy birth--

- day to you

[clapping]

You guys went to a lot of trouble.

I appreciate it.

Nicely done, guys.

Hey, did I-- did I miss anything?

Andrea.

Oh!

Oh, this is the best surprise yet.

Oh, are you kidding?

I couldn't stay away.

David called, asked me to do the video.

And I wouldn't-- I didn't want to miss anything,

so I just caught the first plane out here.

Hi.

How are you doing?

It's awesome.

Ah.

Here comes the cake.

ALL: (SINGING) Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

[laughs] You got to be kidding me.

(SINGING) Happy birthday, dear Steve

Happy birthday to you

[clapping]

Thanks guys.

Make a wish.

Blow them out.

Make a wish.

You can do it.

Blow harder.

Oh.

[clapping]

[angelface, "come with me"] Destiny

can light the path faster as he leads us with a different route

Floating in a cloudless sky

We're alive

Let it flow - Steve, Steve.

It's almost midnight.

Your birthday's almost over.

Give the man a drink.

All right.

A toast.

No more bribing bouncers.

No more fake IDs.

This is the last drink of the first day

of the rest of my life.

This is as best as it gets, my friend.

Don't forget it.

Cut him off, OK?

Andrea!

Steve!

Hey, I am so glad to see you.

Oh, are you kidding?

I knew your 21st birthday would be the wildest

party I'd ever been to.

You know it. Can't miss it.

Hey, I want you to meet somebody.

Carl! Carl!

Carl!

Come here.

That's my friend Andrea.

I've known her since high school.

I know you, maniac.

We met before at dinner, remember?

Andrea came all the way from New Haven, Connecticut.

Hey, you threw a hell of a party there, Carl.

Thank you.

Hey, did you see Clare?

She's missing all the festivities.

Hey, it's your party, and I'll go find her, all right?

OK.

Thanks, man.

So when did you talk to Dylan?

I didn't.

Then where did the letter come from?

Look, Kel, I'm sure this is bugging you,

but I'm telling you the truth, all right?

I sent email to Brenda asking her to do the video message

for Steve's birthday.

And the letter came back from Dylan.

And nothing from Brenda?

It's weird.

Brandon said she's not in London.

I don't know.

I just-- thought you might get upset.

No, I'm not upset.

It was good to hear from him.

Yeah, it was.

Look like Donna needs my help once again.

Will you excuse me?

- What is it? - I'll be right back.

I got a phone call at the front desk.

Oh, you know what? That's OK.

I'm going to go to bed. - No, no, I'll be right back.

OK.

Ah.

Well, it's like the life raft arrived just in time.

That was you?

Yeah, that was me.

Well, let me tell you, it couldn't have come any sooner.

What am I going to do with that guy?

I don't know.

You're the one who invited him.

Ha-ha.

Hi.

How come you're not out there having

a good time with your friends?

I don't have a lot to celebrate.

Well, I think I got some cause for cheer.

Do you know where he is?

No, but I reached one of his patrons.

Sterling Penn.

Do you know him?

Yeah.

I can't believe I didn't think of him.

Well, that's my job.

So what did he say?

He spoke to Colin two days ago.

Colin was looking to sell some artwork.

Penn wasn't interested.

He let me look at his phone records.

The call came from LA.

So there's a pretty good chance that Colin

might still be around.

Should I get my hopes up?

No.

But you should try and have a good time.

Yeah, well, I'll try.

Um, would you-- would you like to dance?

No, I never dance when I'm working.

Have a nice night, Ms. Malone.

You too, Mr. Ballen.

Guys, I think I've had it.

I'm sorry, but I'm still not feeling very well.

Ah, come on, sweetheart.

You gave it a good shot.

We'll see you in the morning.

- Sleep well, guys. - Bye.

Good night.

So, are you having a good time?

Mm-hmm.

Aren't you?

Yeah, but you seem a little preoccupied.

Did you ever get a hold of that woman from Washington?

Oh, we've been playing phone tag.

You want to dance?

Sure.

I want to see more pictures of baby.

Hey, can I have some of the birthday boy?

Hey, you can have more.

Oh, what's the matter, Steve?

Aren't you getting enough for a share, huh?

Oh, he takes a good care of me.

Don't you, honey?

The best.

Ah, you see, I knew eventually someone would nail

Steve's feet to the ground.

Well, I just keep on pounding.

Hallelujah.

[laughter]

Wow, I feel a lot of love in this group.

Oh, well, you should, because I love you.

And I love you. And I love you.

And I love you.

And I love everybody.

MAN: I love you--

[groans]

All right.

Here we go. - OK.

Come on.

Oh.

There you go.

Got him?

Yeah.

OK, buddy, you're going down.

[groans]

The man certainly knows how to have fun.

Well, we'll see how much fun he has in the morning.

What time are we leaving for the polo match?

Uh, the bus leaves at noon.

Great.

Thanks for everything.

You're welcome.

You know, um, not everyone can pull

this off without looking like the royal jerk that you are.

Another famous Arnold compliment.

Thank you.

No, I mean it.

You've been a really great friend.

[soft music]

Look, I was thinking about taking a walk around deck.

Would you like to join me?

[snoring]

I better not.

Sure?

It's a beautiful night.

Yeah, I'm sure.

OK.

Well, uh, good night then.

Night.

I can't thank you guys enough.

This is shaping up to an unforgettable weekend.

You know, it's getting pretty late.

We should probably turn in.

Don't stay up on account of us.

We're doing fine.

Yeah, it's OK, David.

You can go to bed.

All right, you guys have fun.

See you in the morning.

Night.

Donna, the night is young.

Yeah, um, you know, Erik, I think there's something

that I should tell you.

I know.

You just broke up with your boyfriend.

You need a shoulder to cry on, I got a great set.

Right.

No, actually.

Um, I'm-- I'm not the girl for you.

What, are you, gay or something?

No, even better.

I'm a virgin.

What?

Yep.

I'm going to wait till I get married.

You're kidding.

Oh, no, no, that's--

that's something you definitely don't joke about.

Wow.

Actually, it makes my life a lot less complicated.

I just wanted to tell you, you know,

so you didn't get the wrong idea.

Hey, nice night, huh?

Hi. Beautiful.

Mm.

I'm going to head to bed, OK?

Bye.

Goodnight.

Well, look, since we're not really on a date here--

Right.

You know, like I said, I want you to have fun.

Excellent I'll see you in the morning.

OK, right. Night, Erik.

Hey, Kel.

Want a nightcap?

Here you go.

Oh, I can't believe how much I danced last night.

Oh, that is so adorable.

Yeah.

How old is she here?

Mm.

That was Christmas.

She was a year and a half.

She's going to be two years old next week.

How come you didn't bring her?

Oh, please.

A crazy trip, 36 hours.

You have never flown on an airplane with a two-year-old.

You're right.

How's Jesse?

How are you guys doing?

Ah, he loves his work.

Oh, that's great.

You sound happy.

Oh, yeah.

I heard you had a tough year.

Andrea, I made some horrible choices.

I ended up in rehab.

I had to take an incomplete on my whole semester.

I just feel like my life is going nowhere.

Kel, everybody makes mistakes.

You got to give yourself some time.

Be good to yourself.

That might help you make the right choices.

Hey, you guys, gotta make a move.

The bus is loading.

Mm.

OK.

We'll drop it off on the way.

Hi, I'm Susan Keith.

The operator told me I had a fax.

Yes, it's right here.

Great. Thanks.

You're welcome.

[tense music]

Susan, come on.

We're going to be late.

Guys.

We're here.

We gotta get a move on.

Where are Joan and Nat?

Uh, Nat called.

Joan's still not feeling well.

Ow, don't bite my hand. - Where's Valerie?

Relax.

She said she'd be right out.

So we meet again.

Shall I save you a seat?

Oh, no. That's OK.

I'm sitting with my friend Andrea.

I accept that as long as we can sit together for lunch.

OK.

What-- how do I-- what do I do with him?

Just tell me you're a virgin.

Worked for me.

Will you be reachable today?

Uh, no, I don't think so.

But I'll be back later this afternoon.

Good.

What are you doing today?

Waiting.

That's what a lot of my job is.

Well, I hope Jonesy's paying for your room.

Oh, he is.

Well, since you're not doing anything but waiting,

why don't you come with us?

Mm.

You do have a beeper, right?

Yeah, yeah, I do.

I should probably stay by the phone.

What does it take to crack your ice anyway?

I'm just looking out for your interest.

[music playing]

Good.

Then you're going.

COMMENTATOR: The Prince lofts a beautiful drive

that's picked off right out of the mouth of the goal

by Sanchez.

Folks, that just may be the defensive play of the match,

if not the entire tournament.

There's a back shot.

Now, a big bump by Prince Carl who kicks it over

to his defensemen who picks it up and sends the ball

upfield to the charging receiver Swegel with a beautiful approach

but now gets ridden hard.

Tries to tap it in at a difficult angle

while he's being bumped.

That was beautiful concentration.

Yes!

Go, go go!

COMMENTATOR: Team Santa Barbara will take control

as Dean picks it up off side.

Excellent hook by Norman.

Whoa, the pony rears its head, and it looks like Dean

may have gotten lost in there.

Well, it looks like Erik finally lost the scent.

I just told him the truth.

Let me guess.

He asked if he could be here first.

COMMENTATOR: Wait a minute.

The ball is hit over the end line.

Who's that, uh, that babe with Val?

An FBI agent who's supposed to be finding Colin.

Looks like he's hard at it, huh?

[scoffs]

I'll be right back.

I'm going to use the ladies' room.

COMMENTATOR: Way off the board, and he finds it at a good angle.

Sorry we didn't get to spend more time together last night.

Well, we have all weekend, don't we?

Yes we do.

COMMENTATOR:--with a pass up the field.

Charging hard on goal.

But he's written off by Sanchez. [beeper beeping]

And the ball goes out of bounds.

The umpire will quickly throw the ball in.

Excuse me. I need to make a call.

This could be something about our boy.

I hope so.

COMMENTATOR: -on the clock.

And the score all knotted up here in this last chucker.

We could be in for another spectacular finish, folks.

And now--

Wow, I, uh, got hold of that woman in Washington

while you were in the shower.

Oh, yeah?

What'd she have to say for herself?

Mm.

This.

A job offer?

Yeah.

Youth advisor.

Campaign '96.

Starts this summer, though, and I'd have to drop out of school,

move to Washington till after the election, and it's--

it's not for me.

Good.

For a second there, you had me worried.

Don't worry.

I'm not going anywhere.

COMMENTATOR:--that dangerous, folks.

And the Prince takes control.

There he is.

Look at that horse go.

Sanchez throws a nice hook, but the Prince barrels down high

and pops a beauty through the uprights

with a nice off side shot, giving

him a hat trick for the day.

Outstanding.

With an assist from Mr. Ed.

Is this great?

I think I'm going to take riding lessons.

What do you think?

Oh, Lord.

Hey, Clare, did you see Carl this morning?

No, did you?

Yeah.

We had coffee earlier.

He's really in a bad mood.

Hardly said a word to me before he left for the field.

He probably just had his game face on.

Mm.

No, I don't think so.

Something's bothering him.

Did anything happen last night after I fell asleep?

No, we just said goodnight, and he went for a walk.

Clare, you didn't give him a hard time?

No, I didn't.

Don't worry about it.

It'll be fine.

[BACKGROUND RACE COMMENTARY ON PA]

I have a lot of friends here that I've

known for a long, long time.

You all know how much I love you.

But we all have a new friend in town.

Here's to the party pooh-bah.

Prince Carl of Montmartre.

Hear, hear!

Absolutely.

Cheers.

Thank you, Steve.

Everybody, bon appetit.

Hey.

Important call?

I think so.

Your friend Kelly's help paid off.

I just got word that this Claudia Van Eyck

called a payphone in the port district of San Pedro

this morning.

Well, that's just on the other side of the harbor.

What does it mean?

Well, if you were trying to smuggle

yourself out of the country, that's

where you might leave from.

I got a call into Mrs. Van Eyck.

You know, when you told me Jonesy sent you,

I was sure there was something wrong with you,

but you are good.

Very good.

Right.

So Cal, any band you want to see, just say the word

and get front row to anything.

No, actually, I'm concentrating on my studies.

Well, there's always time to have fun.

Why don't we go out next week?

Look, I'm going to be honest with you.

I'm three months out of rehab, and my ex-boyfriend

was busted for possession and flight from justice,

so I'm pretty much recovering right now.

Wow.

Tell me more.

I'd like to get to know you better.

You would, huh?

Yeah.

[music playing]

[groans]

Ooh.

Oh, I'm sorry, I must have dropped my fork.

Excuse me.

Bye, bye.

Carl, are you all right?

You seem a little off today.

Well, there is something on my mind

and there's no easy way to lead up to this,

so I'm just going to come right out and say it.

- Shoot. - I'm in love with Clare.

[chuckles] Come on.

When you think about it, it makes sense.

I mean, we're good friends, so of course,

we'd fall for the same girl.

I don't know what to say about that, Carl.

Listen, you told me you had no definite plans with her

for the future, and you were serious, right?

Yeah, but--

So all I want is the opportunity

to express my feelings to her.

And I'd like your permission.

You know, it's not like you're asking to borrow my basketball,

Carl.

I'm asking for a favor, Steve.

Give me the chance, and may the best man win.
