Hey, Bren, what you doing?

Homework.

Do you have any idea
what's going on downstairs?

Yeah, Mom and Dad
are throwing a party

for Chick Schneider.

Who's Chick Schneider?

CS Schneider?

CS Pacific?

He's like the King Kahuna
of beach fashion.

He makes all those great
wipe-out pants

that Dylan always wears.

Oh, right.

So he's like Dad's new client.

He wants to give us
loads of freebies at the party.

That's great, but what does that
have to do with Anna?

I think Mom's gonna let Anna
cater the party.

I don't think so.

I think she's being fired.

Brandon! Brenda!
Could you come down here?

I want you to meet
Anna's cousin,

Richard Rodríguez.

Brandon? Brenda?

Finally I get a chance
to meet you.

Anna's been telling us
how terrific you are.

Well, we think
she's pretty terrific too.

- Isn't that right, Mom?
- Oh, absolutely.

Is everything all right?

Everything's fine.

I'm not sure
I know where to begin.

Oh, here,
let me try, Mrs. Walsh.

Your parents
are being very kind.

Anna has a niece that attends
one of the local high schools

that's been having some trouble.

Yes, Karla's very smart.

She's a straight A student,

but with the gangs and drugs,
it's terrible.

And it's depriving her
of the opportunity

to get the kind of education
that she deserves.

So your mother and I
wanna let Karla use our address

to enroll in West Beverly.

You'd do that?

Not normally, no.

But under the circumstances,
I think it can be justified.

Fine with me.

If you don't have
a problem with it,

I don't have a problem with it,

- Then it's all settled.
- Thank you.

We could show her around
if you want.

You can try, but Karla
doesn't like to attract

a lot of attention to herself.

I understand.

Good morning,
MC Hammer's office.

Hi, how are you?
Is he in for David Silver?

For who?

David Silver,
broadcasting live and direct

from the tree-lined campus
of West Beverly High.

- Beverly High?
- West Beverly High.

- Mr. Hammer knows you?
- Not yet.

But he will
once you put the call through.

Hello?

Hello?

I'm sorry, but David Silver
is out there.

Too bad. He used to be
a sweet little freshman geek.

Steve's favorite mascot.

So I can get you wipe-out pants
in all different colors,

but you have to look at me
when I talk to you.

- Dylan!
- Huh?

Are you telling me
the fax machine went down again?

The fax machine went down again.

This school is falling apart
right before my very eyes.

Can I help you?

This isn't the new building?

No, you have to go
back out through the quad

and past the science labs.

Which way is that?

It's through the double doors.
I'm going, I'll show you.

Great. And stick me
with your typos?

What typos?

You forgot
the "a" in "recreational"

and you failed
to capitalize "Sacramento."

That's because Sacramento
doesn't deserve a capital.

Hey, cheap shot.
I was born in Sacramento.

We'll try
not to hold that against you.

Hi, I'm Andrea Zuckerman.

I'm the editor
of the school paper.

- Hi, I'm Karla Montez. I'm--
- Karla!

I'm Brandon Walsh.

You know, Jim and Cindy Walsh?

Hello, Brandon.

So, Anna's your aunt.

More like a friend
of the family.

Yeah, she's the best.
She's always so cheerful.

My mom really loves her.
We all do.

There was never any question
of us doing whatever we can

to help you out.

That's very kind.

Listen, Brenda and I
know what it's like

starting at this school
from scratch.

We could introduce you
to people,

answer any questions you have
or whatever.

Thanks.

So, what are you taking?

French, Tech,
and American Literature.

You're in practically
every one of my classes.

Is that good or bad?

I think that's good.

I think that's very good.

Listen,
just one word of caution.

Don't be too put off if the kids
are a little more competitive

than you're used to.

I'll keep that in mind.

Putting aside the music
of My Fair Lady for a second,

when I read Pygmalion,
I couldn't help but think

that Shaw
was a total misogynist.

Fiber optics can't depend
on an internal light source

unless you can differentiate
between the filters.

Anna said you were smart,

but she didn't mention
you were a genius.

I just like to participate
in class discussions.

You mean dominate them.

Hey, all I want to do
is get into a good college.

You won't have any problem
getting a scholarship.

What are you saying?
A Hispanic can't get

into a top college
without some special assistance?

I didn't say that.

No, not in so many words.

But if you bring up
a minority scholarship,

it's pretty obvious what kind
of stereotypes you carry around.

Who said anything
about a minority scholarship?

I was talking
about financial aid,

something everyone can use,
including me.

So excuse me if I didn't realize
you were independently wealthy.

- Brandon...
- I've gone out of my way

to make this place
a little less strange,

and you bite my head off.

If you want to be alone,
why don't you just say so?

- It's not that.
- Then what's going on here?

It's just...

very complicated.

I'd love to hear
all about it someday,

but I got to be at work
in 20 minutes.

You work?

Yeah, I work.

Or doesn't that fit whatever
Beverly Hills stereotype

you're carrying around
these days?

- Touché.
- Olé!

So where do you work, muchacho?

This is Kelly. That's Donna.

The guy back there is Steve,
and this is my sister Brenda.

- Hi, nice to meet you.
- This handsome devil is Nat,

Mr. Beverly Hills
chichi himself.

- The same.
- He might be ugly,

but he serves great pie.

It's from an old family recipe.

Right out of the box.

- So, she's related to your maid?
- I'll tell you later.

We can have anything
in this catalog that we want?

Yeah, just tell me the color,
the size, and it's yours.

Oh, wow.
These baggies are so trendoid.

Hey, Brenda, you think Karla
could place an order too?

Sure, if you like
Chick Schneider's stuff.

I love Chick Schneider.
Who's Chick Schneider?

Oh, cute stuff.
I'll take one of each.

Oh, our kind of girl.

I like this.

She's into you, Brandon.
Listen to me.

I can feel it.

Here you go.

- Compliments of the house.
- Thanks.

Enjoy it.

I plan to.

So is this part of town
considered East LA?

Well, it's not Rodeo Drive.

Where are they coming from?

- Work.
- Where?

Anywhere.

The trucks come in the morning.
That's the worst, seeing them

chasing the trucks
down the street.

All for hard labor
and very cheap pay.

Who would just pick people up
off the street?

How do you think
the pools and tennis courts

in Beverly Hills get built?

This is where Anna lives?

What did you expect,
a deluxe condo?

Are you this defensive
with everyone

or do I just bring out
the best in you?

You and your friends

have so much
that you take for granted.

- You can't appreciate it.
- Can't appreciate what?

The language lab,
the media center,

the safe, clean classrooms.

Wait a second, those are
your classrooms now too.

With your brain,
you'll be able to do

whatever you want
with your life.

Yeah, I'd like
to believe that too.

But then I go to the Peach Pit
and I see those guys

looking at me like I'm a traitor
for being on the wrong side.

Who are you talking about?
Manuel and Pepe?

- I don't know their names.
- The busboys?

Two guys in the little hats?

Yes.

'Cause they're not like that.

If they were looking,
it's because you're pretty.

Not because you're Hispanic.

I hope you don't take this
the wrong way,

but I think a lot of this
is in your head.

Because I don't see it.

You're very perceptive, Brandon,

and very sweet,

but my life is so complicated
right now.

So what can we do
to simplify it?

I can't decide
if you're for real

or just a real smooth operator.

Guess you'll have to
find that out, won't you?

Thanks for the ride.

- See you at school tomorrow.
- Definitely.

Sorry I'm late.

You better be careful, girl.

That's all I have to say.

- Uh-oh.
- What's wrong?

You've got that look
this morning.

What look?

That "C'mon, baby,
light my fire"

- kind of a look.
- What?

That "Hey, Karla, how ya doing
this morning?" kind of a look.

- Get out of here.
- People are starting to talk

about you guys.

What are they saying?

Just that ever since
we moved to LA,

every girl you meet

becomes your next true love.

That's not true.
What about Andrea?

That doesn't count,
she's your editor.

You have
a professional relationship.

And a platonic relationship
with Karla.

For how long?

If it stops being platonic,
you'll have a problem with it?

You think I'm hung up
because she's Hispanic?

A lot of people get really weird
when it comes to race.

Well, not me, and I'm offended
that you'd even bring that up.

As far as I know,
people are people

no matter who they are
or where they come from.

Except maybe St. Paul.

Okay, Anna, now,
explain this to me.

We're going to start off
with the corn tamales,

the rellenos,
and the guacamole with... tapas?

Tapas. Finger food.

- Hello.
- Hey, beautiful, big guy.

So, you have
the CS Pacific catalog?

Yes, I do.

Here's the catalog
and our wish list.

I can't get over how generous
Chick is being with the kids.

With the dough he's raking in,
believe me, he can afford it.

Anna, I was thinking,
the days that you work here,

could Karla come in with you?

That way, Brenda and I
could give her a ride.

She wouldn't have to get up
early to catch the bus.

We'll see.

What?

I didn't say anything.

- MC Hammer's office.
- Hi, MC Hammer, please.

Who's this?

Well, if I tell you,
do you promise not to hang up?

Yo, Sam!

Sam.

- Me?
- Come here.

- I'm... I'm Scott.
- Whatever.

What's going on
with him and MC Hammer?

David wants him
to play at the prom.

MC Hammer's not going to play
at any school dance.

You know that, and I know that,
and MC Hammer knows that.

But unfortunately,

somebody forgot to tell David.

Hey, I'm gonna need more graphs
on the Coach Cass profile.

Fine.

I... I need to ask you
something, okay?

Shoot.

What's your relationship
with Karla?

Have you been talking to Brenda?

No. I just happened
to be in the registrar's office,

and Karla's file just happened
to be on the counter

with... her address showing.

Andrea...

I'm sorry. You know how I am.

You just forget
what you saw, okay?

Already done.

Good.

I just need to know,

is she living at your house?

- What do you think?
- I think you better watch out.

- You're one to talk.
- That is precisely my point.

If anybody is found
living out of district,

it could cause a chain reaction.

I'll tell everyone
to be careful.

Great, that's all I'm asking.

That's all you're asking?

Oh, well,

since we're on the subject...

Okay, for the record,

yes, I'm attracted to Karla,
I'd like to know her better.

I'm very happy for you,
but that wasn't my question.

What else do you want to know?

Well, I hear
that she's very smart,

and I wanted to know
if you knew what her GPA was.

Hi. Remember me? Brandon Walsh?

I drove you home
a couple days ago.

I knew you from somewhere.

From somewhere
other than school.

How you dash out of class
when the bell rings,

I'm starting to get a complex.

I'm sorry, when I'm at school,

I just tend to shut
everybody out.

Then I'll have to see you
outside of school.

You're a really nice guy, but--

Wait, no "buts."

Tonight, 7:30.
Your place. I'll pick you up.

Brandon, I can't.

Okay, all right.

Tomorrow, 7:30.
Your place. I'll pick you up.

I might be working
tomorrow night.

How about Sunday?

I go to church on Sunday.

All day?

I have to go.
Say hi to Brenda for me.

So... what's new, Brandon?

Excuse me, ma'am,
did someone order

an express shuttle?

You don't know
when to quit, do you?

Hey, I just go
where my dispatcher tells me.

Besides, you can't rely
on buses in this city.

They're never running.

And with me, you're guaranteed

first-class, courteous,
door-to-door service.

So what do you say?

So, do you miss your old school?

I miss my old school
in Minneapolis.

I had a lot of good friends
back there.

I have friends here too,
but it's not the same.

Anna mentioned something.

Some trouble at your old school,
something to do with drugs?

Brandon, this isn't
what I want to be talking about.

I'm sorry, what do you want
to be talking about?

You're not making
this very easy, are you?

Making what easy?

You don't know
anything about me.

And you're not being any help
in that area, Ms. Montez.

It's an age-old story.
Boy meets girl. Boy likes girl.

Boy gets girl
if girl gives boy half a chance.

One chance.

Do you like to dance?

Is this my chance?

Oh, this is great.

You really get to see
the whole skyline from up here.

I don't get downtown too much.

You have to see Olvera Street.

The pueblo
of la Reina de los Angeles,

founded in 1781.

Well, you'll have to show me
that sometime.

I think that can be arranged.

Is that a promise?

This is what I wanted
since the first time I saw you.

I can't believe
it's only been a week.

Cindy,

you pulled off dinner parties
without batting an eyelash.

Back home, not the first one
in Beverly Hills.

The guys from the rental company
are here.

They need to know
where to set up the chairs.

Why don't we stack them
in the living room for now?

And get Brandon to help.

Brandon's not here.

Where did he run off to?

I think he had to work all day.

He was awfully late
last night, wasn't he?

I don't know, Mom.
I fell out early.

You know who he went out with
last night, don't you?

- I have an inkling.
- Maybe we should tell the kids

the truth about Karla.

I don't think we can.

Brandon?

Did someone order room service?

We got pan dulce,

an apple quesadilla,
café en casa ,

the whole enchilada.

The guy at the pastry shop

promised me this was good stuff.

Yeah, but this isn't
a good time.

- Why? Is Anna still asleep?
- She's on her way to your house

to get ready for the party.

Then this is a great time.

We could pick up
right where we left off.

I don't know about you,
but I didn't get much sleep.

Yeah, I was up for a while.

So, can I come in?

You'd better go.

Why? What's wrong?

Well, if it isn't Brandon Walsh.

This is a nice surprise.
How are your parents?

Fine, thanks.

Good, say hello for me.

Did you come
to give Anna a ride?

No, actually, I came
to take Karla to breakfast

in Beverly Hills,
and I brought you some pastries.

Oh, no, none for me.

I don't think Karla has time

for breakfast this morning,
do you?

I can't today.
I'll talk to you later.

I just don't trust him.

- What's his name?
- Richard.

He's Anna's cousin
or uncle or something.

Every time I ask her
about her family,

she changes the subject,

like she's embarrassed
or ashamed.

Well, weren't you with her
last night?

Come on, Walsh.

Whoa, if it isn't Dylan,
the wild surfman.

Don't tell me
it wasn't cold out there.

No, it was happening.
Waves were breaking.

- They missed you.
- That's the same shirt I ordered

from Brenda's catalog.

I'm supposed
to get baggies tonight.

The party's still on?

The social event of the season?

- Is Karla going to be there?
- I wish.

- You invited her, didn't you?
- She didn't give me a chance.

Besides, she said she probably
had to work tonight.

Hey!

- Oh, hi, Karla.
- Hi.

Anna tells me
you enjoy West Beverly

more than you thought.

I do. Thank you.

She never stops reading,
this one.

She's going to be a lawyer.

Really? That's great.

Maybe. We'll see what happens.

By any chance, do you have
any rings or some ribbon

to tie a bow around the napkins?

Now, why didn't I think of that?

Yes, I have some napkin rings.

They're in the dining room,
the top drawer.

She is such a talented girl.

This must be a nightmare
for her.

It is.

Hi, Mom. Hi, Anna.

- Hey.
- Hi.

How are things going
here at party central?

Everything's under control,
thanks to Anna and the gang.

Smells a lot better here
than it did at the Pit.

- Oh, come on.
- Ah, be my guest.

Brandon.

Hey, Karla!

This is great.
I thought you had to work.

I am working.

One of Anna's servers got sick,
so she asked me to fill in.

Well, I was going to invite you
tonight as my guest.

I wanted to introduce you
to my parents.

I met them.
They're both really terrific.

Of course I'm not surprised.

After last night,
how can you work here?

I'm just helping out.

What's the big deal?

- I have to do this now.
- No, you don't.

I don't want Karla to work here.

Why not?
She's doing a great job.

I don't feel right
about having friends serve me.

Honey, you serve your friends
at the Peach Pit all the time.

That's different.
That's a place of business.

This is in our house.

I just don't see the difference.

Fine.

Take me off the guest list.

- Brandon!
- Anna, if you need

an extra pair of hands,
I'm available.

Hey, Brandon,
the clothes came.

Chick sent us stuff
that's not in the catalog yet.

They are so rude. I love them.

Which did you order?
The green or the orange fuchsia?

I don't know, Brenda,
and I don't care, okay?

- What's with you?
- I can't believe Mom

would hire Karla to work here.

Why not? Mom doesn't know
how you feel about her.

- That's not the point.
- Yes, that is the point.

You don't tell Mom how you feel
and she doesn't tell us

why she and Dad
were willing to lie

in order to get
Karla into school.

They did it so she could get
a better education.

That's what they say.

What's going on?

You got bent out of shape
over nothing.

It's not nothing, Dad.

This is where I say adios.

You don't understand.

No, you don't understand.

CS Pacific is the first
gold star client

I've picked up
since we moved to California.

For me to be working
with Chick is a major coup.

Now what I need from you

is for you to be
a gracious and happy host

who'll make sure
that all of our guests

are having a good time.

Do you think
you can do that for me?

Good evening.
Welcome to casa de Walsh .

Can I interest you
in a cocktail?

- The margaritas are going fast.
- Thanks, that sounds great.

Cindy, you remember
Becky and Alan Wilerson?

Oh, yes, hi. How are you?

You have a lovely home
and such a handsome bartender.

- Oh, thank you.
- Well, enjoy.

At least he's being pleasant
to our guests,

even if he's not speaking to us.

Just two more hours
and it's over.

Yeah, just keep on breathing.

Mom, do you know
where the camera is?

Chick wants to take
pictures of us.

He says he wants to use us
in his next catalog.

Well, I don't blame him.
You girls look...

What's the hip word?

Def? Dope? Rad?

Oh my God.

Foxy?

- Do you want another one?
- These tacos are great, Karla.

I've never tasted
a taco like this.

That's because they're flautas.

You didn't know
that either, Kelly.

Have you tried these, Mr. Walsh?

Thanks, Karla.

Can you see if Mr. Schneider
needs anything?

You have got to remember

when we started surfing
in North Shore,

those boards still weighed
2,000 pounds.

If you got clunked
with one of those monsters,

you were one dead tuna.

Can I get you anything else?

Oh, thanks, sweetheart,

but I think I'll slurp
another one of these.

Preferably with you...
in the dark.

Good thing
Walsh didn't hear that.

Yeah.

He's flipped for her
in a major way.

Karla, could you help me
bring some extra chairs

down from my parents' room?

I said I was sorry about before.

I didn't mean to embarrass you.

You're the one who's
embarrassed, not me.

Seeing you just caught me
by surprise, that's all.

Why are you still
being so cold to me?

Look, I'm just trying
to be conscientious.

Where are the chairs?

This isn't your parents' room.

- Nope. This is my room.
- Brandon, what are you doing?

Nothing, I'm tired of watching
you be conscientious.

What do you want, Brandon?

What do you think?

Are you happy now?

- What's the matter with you?
- I don't like being told

how I should feel
or what I should think.

Tell that to Richard,
he's got something on you.

I don't need you to protect me.

I don't want to protect you.

I just want it to be
like it was last night.

That was last night, Brandon.

Tonight I'm working
at a fancy party

in Beverly Hills,
and I would appreciate it

if you would let me go
downstairs and do my work.

It's not what you think.

Richard told you
to stay away from him.

- It's not my fault.
- I don't care whose fault it is.

Show some respect
for these people.

I have respect for them.

Then show some respect for me.

Is everything all right?

Yeah.

Okay, everybody.

Oh, Brandon, smile.

Kelly, tickle him.

Okay, just one more.

Oh, that was great, thanks.

You've got beautiful kids, Jim.

One more beautiful
than the next.

They especially look good
wearing your spring line.

Thanks, we expect
big things this season.

We just opened
a new factory in Mexicali.

We should've done this
ten years ago.

Yeah, well,
there is a language problem,

but those people work hard
and they work cheap.

How much do you pay them?

Why? You need a job?

No, thanks.

I have a job
that pays a fair wage.

I just don't like to hear
about people being exploited.

Brandon.

I'm sorry, Dad.

The people
who make his swimsuits

ought to get something out of it

so their relatives won't chase
the work trucks in East LA.

Brandon, you apologize
right now!

Hey, there's no need for that.

Who knows? He's probably right.

Let's eat.

Karla, wait.

Brandon, you were right.

It wasn't a good idea
for me to come here.

This was a big mistake.

Leave her alone, please.

Please, let her go.

Again, thank you so much
for everything.

Oh, thank you.

- Good night, Anna.
- Good night. See you on Tuesday.

- Good, bye-bye.
- Bye.

So, should we do this again
next week?

Why wait? Why not tomorrow?

Hey, great party, you guys.

Well, I think
it was a rousing success...

with one minor exception.

Well, I'm going to bed.

Wait, I'll come with you.

- Good night, Brenda.
- Good night.

Need any help?

No, I got it.

Are you okay?

I don't know.

You ever had one of those days
where you wish you could

turn the clock back
and start all over?

I mean, everyone in the world
is furious at me.

Mom, Dad, Anna, Karla.

You.

I'm not mad at you, Brandon.

Thanks for sticking by me, Bren.

But I do think you've been
unbearably obnoxious

this whole past week.

- Thanks.
- What do you want me to say?

You've been totally consumed
with Karla.

You've lost your sense of humor
about her and everything else.

Tell me how I'm supposed
to yuck it up

when the girl I'm falling for
walked out the door

for no reason.

Maybe she had a reason.

Maybe there's stuff going on

you don't even know about.

- Like what?
- Like why her uncle Richard

was parked outside
while the party was going on.

- He was?
- Yeah, Dylan saw him.

And when Karla
tore out of the house,

she went straight to his car.

That Richard guy is bad news.

I'm going to find out
what's going on.

Can I talk to you?

You mean there's a chance
we can be on speaking terms?

Oh, come on, Dad.

I apologized to you.
I apologized to Chick.

I know I was out of line.
What more can I do?

We're just lucky the man
has a great sense of humor.

I don't get it.

Your behavior tonight
was so unlike you.

Well, I'm confused, Dad.

And I guess
it really burns me up to think

there are things going on here
that are being kept from me.

Brenda says
you weren't the kind of people

who would lie
to help someone's niece

get into a better school,
even someone as sweet as Anna.

So what's the story, Dad?

You been keeping
something from us?

We like Karla very much.

No, not as much as I do.

I've never felt this way
about anybody before.

You got to tell me
what's going on.

We can't tell you, Brandon.

We made promises
to these people.

We have to keep our word.

I'm sorry, honey.
It just never dawned on us

that you and Karla
might get together.

Yeah, well, we did.

At least we were trying to
until tonight.

If we'd known
it was going to cause you

this much grief,

we would have said no.

No question about it.

Can you at least tell me
who Richard is?

I think you better talk
to Karla.

Hi, Anna.
Can I talk to Karla?

No, she's not here, Brandon.

Can I wait for her to come back?

She's not coming back, Brandon.

Is she in trouble?

No, not anymore, thank God.

She's gone back to her family.

I know she'd like
to see you again.

If only to say goodbye.

Don't eat too many of those.

Here you go. Anything else?

If you can't give me
another chance,

can you at least
give me an explanation?

Have you ever heard
of Víctor Montez?

- Is he famous?
- To some people.

He heads the Department
of Hispanic Culture

at the Kenmont Colleges
in Pomona.

He's also my father.

So why do you live with Anna?

I don't. I just moved
to East LA last week.

- Why?
- Anna was my babysitter.

I live with my parents
and sisters at the university.

But I also do volunteer work
at the projects near Dogtown,

which is where I saw
two lowlifes,

named Ruben Benequez
and "Sleepy" Saloman

drive by a house three times

before they pulled out
their guns and opened fire.

You saw that?

And I saw the bullets
ricochet into the brain

of a four-year-old boy
on his way to a birthday party.

Oh my God.

And when Ruben let it be known

that whoever came forward
to testify against him

would not live
a long and prosperous life,

Richard thought
I should disappear

until the case came to court.

Maybe for a year.

And that's when Anna mentioned
your folks might help me out.

So Richard's a cop.

Prosecuting attorney.

I was his star witness.

No wonder
he was always dogging you.

Not anymore, Sleepy broke down
and confessed last night.

So you're off the hook?
You don't have to testify?

Yeah, and now I can go back home
and to my old school.

And you like it out there?

- Brandon...
- How far out is Pomona anyway?

It's on the other side
of the world, Brandon.

What are you saying?

That I'm not expecting anything
from you.

What if I want you
to expect something?

What? That you'll pledge
your undying devotion to me

and that I should do the same?

I'm not a poor girl
from the barrio

who's looking
for a white knight.

Is that how you saw me?

Being with you is like a dream,

like a fairy tale.

But now it's over.

And I have to go home now.

Why?

Oh, Brandon,
I said it was complicated.

I disagree. I don't think
it is that complicated.

I don't think you and I
are that different.

I agree.

And that's what scares me
the most.

With you,
it would be so easy for me

to forget who I am,
where I come from.

I don't want that to happen.

I really didn't know you
at all, did I?

Oh, you knew me
better than you think.

Yeah, well, maybe sometime
when you come into town,

you could meet me
on Olvera Street.

I'd like that.

I really would.

Take care of yourself, Brandon.

Yeah. You too.

I distinctly told you
number 169-B, remember?

I pointed it out to you
in the catalog.

169-B. I told you.

Well, you know
pink's my favorite color.

So new clothes, new earrings.
What else is new?

Dylan, I saw that.

Oh, no, Brenda,
she looked at me first.

Oh, yeah.

You know that piece
you did on Coach Cass?

Yeah, I know it. I wrote it.

I didn't change a comma.

I think
it's your best piece yet.

Thanks, Andrea.

Don't thank me.

You wrote it.

I wish it could be
like this with everyone.

- Like what?
- How we are with each other.

Easy, comfortable, real.

Yeah, that's nice.

I'm glad we're not attracted
to each other romantically.

So we can always be friends.

Good friends.

Just friends.

It's great.

Yeah.

Okay, don't hang up.
Just don't hang up.

Now, this is David Silver,
the voice of West Beverly High.

I really don't care
if he doesn't want to come

to our homecoming dance.

Or that MC Hammer

is one of the top recording
and video artists.

But at least
you could put my call through

one time without hanging up.

Having said all that,
can I please talk to MC Hammer?

MC Hammer?

Sorry. I think you have
the wrong number.

Bye.

Debbie Gibson?

Debbie Gibson?
Look, this is David Silver.

I've been trying to reach you
all week.
