The wedding night does have a certain appeal to me, if you know what I mean. I

know exactly what you mean. This wedding's gonna make the front page a

man.

God, I'm sorry, Miss Grant. I'm kind of in a rush. Yeah, I noticed. I was just

getting into the number. And I wasn't? No.

I heard he found her with another guy. Hey, she pushed him. Oh, yeah, well, he

turned on her. She used him. That's right.

Danny Amakulo?

Me? Thank you.

big dream.

Chris.

Chris,

you want to cool the schmaltz?

Sorry, I always get carried away at weddings. This is just a rehearsal.

So I'm rehearsing getting carried away, all right?

I don't know. Maybe I made a mistake putting you in charge of entertainment.

Hey, you think your own cousin's going to let you down? This wedding's going to

make the front page a variety, man.

Hey, guys, what's happening?

Vincent, meet the finest talent in New York City. A compliment like that will

get you nowhere. Hey,

we're dancing at the wedding for sentimental reasons.

That's right, the all -you -can -eat buffet.

Vin? Honey, the minister's ready.

Coming, lovebug.

Isn't she something?

Straight A at City College.

Incredible. Yeah, but she's dropping out to work at Penny's until, you know,

first baby lovebug comes along.

Vincent, what a couple, huh?

Grandpa Donovan, how's it going?

Is this the little chickadee? No, no, no, no, no. She's my little chickadee.

When are you going to make a nice woman out of her?

Grandpa Donovan, I'm so obsessed with you.

Best man?

Good old Vince, he's got the right idea.

Dinner on the table every night, and after that, no more begging for dessert.

Chris, will you get up here?

Well, as soon as the ceremony's over, we're on.

Hey, just think about it.

Next time we play this hall, it'll be for Jesse and Nicole.

You know, I just think of worse games.

I'm sorry, Miss Grant.

I'm kind of an erotica, I noticed. Miss Beckett!

Miss Beckett!

Heard a bank is thirsty as soon as put a police escort.

And breathe.

And arch.

Good. One, two. Open and split.

Good. Together, ladies.

Oh, that's good, Janine. Good, Thelma. You're on time. That's good. Sorry.

Hold it, fellas.

Hold it.

Hip.

Hip. Turn.

Go ahead, Jesse. Don't be late.

Strike.

for lunch. Good.

Watch the back line, ladies. Looking good.

Come on, Jet.

Keep that knee up, Ken.

Y 'all should be closer together when you come down.

When you walk up, you should be closer together.

Hip. Go hip, ladies. Good.

Something I can help you with, officer?

No.

Which one is it?

McIntyre.

That new girl, Becky?

What do you want her for?

What do you think of her dancing?

Dancing? That's a crime?

Well, the talent.

That's my little girl.

She's, uh...

She has some problems.

Yeah, she sure does, doesn't she?

Switch sides.

Jesse, that's too fast.

That's way too fast. What are you doing?

Wrap. Other side.

Wrap.

The flag. The flag. The flag is late.

Hold it. Hold it, everybody.

Thank you very much. That's a wrap for today.

Just rehearse and relax.

No problem.

I really don't have to keep checking up on you. I'm not checking up on you.

I'm checking up on you. It's just it makes my heart glad to see you so happy

here. I know, and I appreciate it, but it's sad.

Okay, hon.

Now you better go to your next class.

It's math, isn't it?

You know my schedule better than I do.

Bye -bye, hon.

Oh, girl, this is the most romantic thing I've ever been involved in.

you ever been a part of a wedding before? Only in my dreams.

You know, I bet they're racking a fortune in gifts.

Boy, is that all you can think about? I'm a too low as money.

Let me tell you something.

The wedding night does have a certain appeal to me, if you know what I mean. I

know exactly what you mean.

Hey.

I don't know, you can call me sentimental, but that part about living

ever after, it gets me every time.

Chill, we're old and gray, right, Mickey?

I'll meet you guys at Lowe's. All right.

Jeffrey's been there every night this week. We should rehearse. We'll rehearse

at rehearsal. What time are you coming? I'll see you around seven, man.

Right. I hate it when you do that. So do what?

Cut me off and just make plans for me. That's two things.

It's my Latin macho upbringing. What do you want from me? I see you and I want

to make like Tarzan. Well, I'm not Jane.

Yo, lighten up. Maybe I don't want to lighten up.

All right, listen. You don't want to go to Luz? Fine, don't.

I want to spend my night alone with the guys for a change. Forget it. Forget I

said anything.

I'll meet you at least.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

I'm looking forward to it.

Love means never having to say you're sorry a lot.

To Audrey from Vince.

Talk about profound.

You didn't mean that up?

More or less.

I'm a real slob to love.

Lou, do you think Vince is going to like this?

I mean, you got it engraved, and the guy hasn't even seen it yet. Hey, the

prices I'm talking, he'll like it.

Now, if he wants a deal in the area, look at this.

Laura, have you seen Nicole?

Sorry, Jesse, no. Was she supposed to be here? Yeah, I thought so.

Well, that is hot.

Hot what?

I'd melt if a guy gave me something like this. How many times do I tell you,

don't talk dirty in front of the customers, huh?

How much is that?

For you?

No, for Nicole.

Same price.

Someone got a guilty conscience or what? Love is expensive, huh?

Come on, for last. That ain't like you.

On Nicole's birthday last year, you gave her a back rub. And then you wanted one

back in return.

That's not the way it goes. You're bad.

You guys are bad.

Bad, bad, bad.

It's bad, but not as bad as this jewelry.

Now, since when has this become a solo number?

Anyway.

How you doing? You all right?

I think I'm just a little bit restless.

I know what you mean. I get the way myself sometimes.

Fortunately, I don't move around with some slow number. I usually put on

something crazy.

Uh -huh. Wow.

Does it help?

Well, it works for me. It straightens my head out every time when I give it a

try.

I'll try anything.

I'll do it first. You're

crazy.

Come on.

Sure? Nicole, don't do this to yourself.

I mean, if you have something inside, you should let it out. You shouldn't

it in like that.

You really happy with me, Jesse?

Yeah, sure.

I mean, all the time.

Well, I mean, I wasn't exactly happy when you stood me up last night.

I'm not talking about last night.

Oh, you mean in general.

I mean, people aren't happy all the time, but when you're in a relationship,

stick that stuff out.

Well, you don't.

Are you still mad at me?

No.

Is that... I don't know.

Whatever it is, forget about it.

Nothing's so bad that I can't make it better.

No, Jesse.

Come on, you don't even know what it is. Please just put it away.

Why? I mean, you're always saying to me that a guy should get his girlfriend

gifts. Things change.

Some things, yeah.

Baby, I'm changing.

You're still my little Nicky. Still your little Nicky, Jesse. Like a little love

bug, like a little chickadee.

Is that what this is all about?

Vincy's wedding?

Things haven't been right for a while, Jesse. The wedding just brought it home

for me.

It's not our wedding.

I don't think it's ever going to be our wedding, Jesse.

Why do you say things like that?

Look.

You know that I love you.

And I know you love me too.

I do.

You?

Then what's the problem?

i just don't think that i love you enough please don't make me

hurt you it's over

Did you see that?

The new girl, Jillian? I'm

telling you, I think this is it for me.

How can you talk about it after what happened to Jesse and Nicole?

I heard you found them with another girl.

I heard you found her with another guy.

Did she really break the news to you on top of the Empire State Building?

Hey, sit down.

How you doing, Jeff?

Just hanging in there.

You sure you're all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Hey, it's unbelievable the way you're holding up.

Yes, you all right?

$2 .45, please.

$2 .45.

You sort of make your day, Jesse boy. Not to mention mine and Emma Toodle's.

The guest of honor, Vinny Faster Park.

Imagine that sweet thing jumping out of a cave, huh?

I'd rather not.

Just aren't you forgetting something?

This is a co -ed bachelor party. Me too. I got somebody for the girls.

Don't look at that body and have to get in line and take a number.

Hey,

I'm all right. Look, Jesse, you know what?

You can jump out of the cake. It's cool.

Thanks, Chris, man, but I'm fine, man. I'm just fine.

Jesse, Jesse, we've always been looking all over for you.

Are you okay? I'm all right. I'm great.

Is that when you used to be able to handle dancing with Nicole at the

Yeah, why not?

Hey.

Hey, man, did it ever occur to you that I might want to be a single guy? That I

might like it this way?

Hey, the guy's right.

You know, chicks aren't all they cracked up to be, Jeff.

Yeah, you know, I was just telling Vince it's not too late to back out. That's

right, I heard you.

Save his life.

No.

No.

You didn't really mean what you just said, though. Did you?

Hey, man, let me tell you, breaking up is not the big deal that you're thinking

of. No?

How come you still got a picture in your lap?

I'm dying, man.

I'm dying.

Hey, come on.

No.

Hey, I've got to get her back.

I guess you can't do this to yourself, man.

How would you like to come to the bachelor party room?

The thing is, it's my father.

He expects you to pick me up on time and have me home by 11 o 'clock.

Well, look, that's no problem.

Can I ask you if you drink?

I don't.

Or if you ever smoke?

I haven't.

How about Jaywalk?

Well, he's a little strict, isn't he?

Not for a good Irish cop.

Oh, great.

Well, I look forward to meeting you.

Okay?

All right. Bye.

You think it's easy for me? I think twice before I let that one go.

Next.

May the rivals take a pleasant line, please.

Tyler?

What are you doing?

What do you think I'm doing, man? I'm getting in line.

Are you crazy?

Let me tell you something. If you're really serious about this girl, I advise

you to go for it.

kind of dumb.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I mean, we can't just keep avoiding each

other.

Not if we're going to dance to the wedding together.

So how about, you know, we get together tonight to rehearse?

Whatever the meeting, the guys that lose.

I think I can pass on that.

Next.

I'll catch up with you later tonight.

Danny Amatulo?

Yeah.

Danny Xavier.

Well,

you can keep that Xavier business to yourself, okay?

I'm here to check you out.

Me?

Why? I don't get it.

You do want to take out Julian Beckett.

Hey, wait a minute. You can't be her father.

Dad don't even know you got a date yet.

I'm her brother.

Yes.

What's the matter?

I think they must have covered a note.

Well, what's your hurry?

No hurry.

I think I just want to take a walk before I get home.

So is she to me.

You know, maybe we can...

Stop over at the bistro for some coffee first, you know. That's not a good idea.

Okay.

You can hang around here, you know.

Talk, fool around, whatever.

This isn't a date, Jesse.

Okay, okay, look.

If you want your space, I'll give it to you, all right? I can drop the macho

bit. You know, I don't expect your whole world to revolver on me, but you've got

to give me a chance.

I can make it work, I swear it. It wouldn't be Jesse Valencia. I don't

I don't care, Nicky. I'd still have you. Jesse, you always have me. You have me

now as a friend.

Come on, this is really difficult for me. You think this is easy for me?

It's so hard for me. I have to be strong enough to just come back to you because

it's comfortable. I don't want to go back. Are you meeting somebody else? Is

that why you're in such a hurry?

Go ahead. Throw away everything that we had. I'm not throwing away everything

that we had. I still care about you. No, the only person you care about is

yourself.

Where are you going?

Come on.

I've spilled my guts to you.

I've done everything but beg. What more do you want from me?

Now, what is this, World War III or basketball?

There's no way around it. Vincy already invited both, Jesse and Nicole. That's

it. Well, he better uninvite one of them fast.

It's got to be Nicole.

Mm -mm, Jesse.

Come on, no contest.

Hey, look, you can't leave out Nicole.

This thing is crazy.

This is love, and that's what happens to God. I don't want nothing to do with

this. Hey, she pushed him. Oh, yeah, well, he turned on her. She used him.

That's right.

It's time for her to move on. Ah, let them both come to the party. Work out

things for themselves.

Not that anyone asked me.

Ah, young love.

I wouldn't go through that again if they put saxophone reeds under my

fingernails, a trumpet in my ear, forced me to listen to motley crew records.

Mr. Swierowski, where's your sense of romance?

You might say I left it somewhere in Heidelberg.

Frieda Schmertz broke up with me and told the entire conservatory I kissed

a groundhog.

I think that's bad.

I broke up once with a girl named Mary Lou, and my mother decided that she

her better.

So Mary Lou kept coming over to the family dinners, and I ended up eating

burgers.

I just hope Jesse doesn't end up as bitter as the two of us.

Who's bitter?

My mother never could make a decent French fry.

And I know that I'm letting you down by dropping out of the dance.

I'm sorry, man. I just can't do it.

I just can't do it to Nicole, you know?

When I saw that look in her eyes, man, when I pulled out the handle...

I'm not gonna put her through this, too, you know?

You want advice for the love loan. That's not my style.

What I can do is tell you what I told him.

My other lead dancer when he came to see me about the same thing It's too late

for you to back out now you've got a commitment. I really expect you to honor

Did Jesse really offer to drop out for me?

Yeah

I heard what you tried to do for me today.

Thanks.

Leroy turned me down.

Yeah, I heard that too.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay.

No. No, it isn't.

I acted like a real jerk.

It's not just you, Jesse. It's both of us.

We're going to have to find a way to get along.

I don't know how.

I guess you heard Jess and I broke up.

You'd have to be living in Missouri, not this.

I really hoped that when two people split up, they could keep the back part

what they had, you know?

I didn't think it would be this hard.

You miss him already, don't you?

A little bit.

Hey, baby, two years is a long time.

I started feeling like I was in a corner.

I'd move away a little bit, and Jesse would call me right back. He expected so

much all the time.

Well, sounds like you did what you had to do.

I think I did.

Most of the time.

But then once in a while, I'd see him.

I'm sure he'll be hanging in his face at a certain angle.

Or remember his laugh.

I know I gotta keep myself from just running over there and saying, Justin,

thank me back.

I made a mistake.

How do you know?

Billy Waters, my first boyfriend. Billy Waters? Girl, breaking up with him was

the scariest thing I ever did.

Did it hurt?

Oh, did it ever.

That was the first boy I even talked to. The first boy I even kissed.

But when that little thing went off in my head and said it's time to move on, I

knew it could hurt just as much to hang in there.

Just tell me one thing.

When did it start hurting?

It took a long time for me.

But maybe it'll be different for you.

The only thing I can promise you is that it will run its course. And every day

it'll get a little bit easier and a little easier.

And then you'll meet somebody.

Will I meet someone that's special?

No guarantees about that.

Did you?

What a dance, Nicole.

No, not really.

But thank you.

Well, hope you have a good time.

I love you.

I'm sorry my folks didn't make you feel more comfortable.

Hey, I've been around.

I can handle overprotective parents.

Of course, I was a little surprised when you fought Tristan.

He usually calls it quits after the breathalyzer test.

Hey, Dan.

Careful, Lou.

Enjoy yourself.

Alone at last.

Excuse me, she's taking it.

Hey, look, bud.

Mr. Bud. You know, a guy can get the wrong idea watching the two of you dance

like that.

Like what?

Sean, what are you doing here?

You know this guy?

This guy's my brother.

Another one?

Two and a half hours, kid.

I'm sorry, Danny.

Hey, we'll go to the bright side.

At least not every guy in your family is a cop.

No, she's a Marine.

Grab a glass.

Got one?

How about you?

Hey.

A toast.

To Audrey and Vinci.

To love.

For better or worse, they still ain't invented anything that could top it.

Grit, you're a regular poet.

To Audrey and Vinci. To the happy couple.

It's a mistake.

I think I might have made one.

Um, Dan.

I don't understand either, Jesse. All I know is I want you.

Please.

Love me tender, love me true.

All my dreams fulfilled.

Oh, my darling, I love you.

And I always will.

Plastic. Man, I thought this was going to be a classy wedding.

It is.

No one's wearing plastic in this dance number.

Can't get much classier than iridescent, huh?

All right, all right, forget about it. Forget about it. Hey, y 'all look great.

This is going to be a great wedding. Trust me. Great.

We got lamps playing the accordion. Okay, check it out. We got Lou catering.

Oh, we got our lead dancers back together again. What do you think? No, I

thought for a minute that they wouldn't get back together.

I love Greg.

He stores my faith.

No, no, no.

Lou, you gotta pause.

Come on, Nicole, you're messing up the count.

Jesse, I'm just trying to make it work. Come on, both of you guys, please, take

it easy.

I'm sorry, let's be having an off day.

No, it's just that we have to have this thing together by tomorrow night. Don't

worry about it, Leroy, we'll get it together, okay? I hope so. Can we have

from the top?

Yeah. From the top, that's right here, yeah.

Danny, I'd really love to go to Lucy, but... Hey, hey, I understand.

You've got to run it by your family.

I really am sorry about the other night.

How do you think I feel, sir?

You know, I walk by a post office and I check to see if my picture's on display

yet. Come on, it's not that bad.

Come on, Brett.

The boys and I figured that would surprise you.

I'm trying to, right?

Yeah, come on, the car's out in front. Let's go.

Come on, let's get a move on, Julie.

Hey, the Knicks are on TV tonight, huh?

Yeah, Mom's got dinner on the stove.

Uh... Maybe you guys better go home without me.

What for? English was your last class today, wasn't it, Dad?

It's Thursday, right?

This is crazy.

You know, I'm the only girl at SOA who has an armed bodyguard to and from

and a Marine escort to my party.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was an FBI file out on every guy that ever

smiled at me.

That Amatulo kid, he was clean, by the way.

Stop it. It's not funny.

Wait a minute.

What's this all about?

Daddy, I'm not coming home with you tonight.

I'm going to lose with my friends.

Now, listen, it's a dangerous world out there. Now, your brothers and I know

that. I know.

For 17 years, you guys and Mom have been everything to me, but I'm growing up.

Just once, I want to act like a normal kid if you would just have a little

and let me.

If you don't want to do that, go ahead and put me under arrest. Jillian. Tell

Mom to save some dinner for me. I won't be home late. Jillian!

Have a good time.

You

don't

really want to go, do you?

Listen, if I can't count on you to be straight with me, who can I count on?

no big deal, Jesse.

Yes, it is. It is to me.

Okay.

You really want to know what I want to do?

Yeah. Promise you won't get mad? I promise.

I just feel like taking a walk by myself.

Okay, that's cool. I mean, we don't have to be together every minute of the day,

right? You really don't mind? I said I didn't.

Okay, why don't I meet you there later tonight?

All right.

Yeah, sure.

I'll get it.

Are you sure Lou said this came from me?

Yeah, read the note.

What note?

Oh, that's right.

really great idea, Nicole.

Well, it would have been if it hadn't rained.

Listen, I was just kidding.

At least there's no ants.

Maybe if you caught roaches.

Roaches? I'm just kidding. It's a joke.

Okay. Come on. Sorry.

You want some chicken?

No, no. It's good.

I know it looks really good, but, you know. You ate pizza at Lou's, right?

Right. I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

Maybe you want to dance?

Okay.

This isn't exactly what I had in mind.

I know what you mean. I'm sorry.

You know, it just seems like we're really trying to force something here,

know? Jesse, I don't know what else to do.

It's like I've got to try so hard to... See, that's just it, though. That's just

it. We're not supposed to try.

I mean, it's either there or it's not.

It's not, is it?

No.

I used to think when you were in love with somebody, that was it.

It wasn't even a question of what I wanted.

I just figured it would be you and me forever and ever.

But you're right.

Things change. People change.

I guess it just took time for me to see for myself.

Do you remember the time you got so mad at me when I told you that I just wanted

to be friends?

You had to bring that up, huh?

Well, I meant it then.

I really did.

But I don't think we could do that now.

I think we care about each other too much.

Just not as much as we used to.

Or not in the same way.

Huh? You know?

It's crazy.

I don't think they have a name for that kind of feeling.

No?

Breaking up didn't work.

Getting back together didn't do the trick.

So where do we go from here, huh?
