I thought Emily was gonna
be joining us for this cruise.

No, she's staying in Fresno
to work on our wedding plans.

Vicki, I'm sorry
you couldn't come with me

to meet Emily's relatives.

Oh, you know how hard
it is for me to get away, dad.

I mean, I had to finish
the ship's newsletter.

And somebody had to feed
your goldfish,

or they'd be belly up by now.

Well, you would've
loved the family.

We really hit it off,
except for uncle Alvin.

He's a little strange.

He wears his underwear
outside of his pants.

Sounds like a lot of fun.
Sorry I missed it.

I had an aunt once
who thought

she was seeing visions
in her living room.

She never quite understood
what television was.

[ Chuckles ]

Swimming pool,
a gym, a casino.

And they pay you
to work here?

I'm the featured
performer here.

As soon as we get
beyond that 3-mile limit,

I'm the star.

Well, I'm glad
you invited me along.

And I can't wait to see
your suite.

[ High-pitched voice ] Ooh!

Oh, oh, and I want you
to speak to that couple

in, uh, 244 on aloha deck.

They're complaining
they don't have a bathtub.

Well,
what am -- what am I gonna say?

I mean -- I mean, nobody
on that deck has a bathtub.

Maybe that's
what you should say.

Oh, yeah. Right.

You know,
gopher, I can do this job.

I can do this job.

Here I am.
Let the good times roll.

Spencer, you are
an assistant cruise director

on this ship.

You are supposed
to be wearing your uniform.

You mean now?

I thought that was for
official things like parties.

Spencer, boarding
is an official function,

along with everything else.

You mean, I have to wear
the uniform all the time?

No, you can take it off
when you shower.

You would know this,
Spencer,

if you read
the employees handbook.

[ Sighs ]

Go to your room, Spencer.

Man's got a real chip
on his shoulder.

The man is your boss.

Like I said,
some people look good

with chips
on their shoulders.

♪♪

I saw him with, uh,
b.B. King.

-No kidding?
-That's right.

"Hatchet man" hatcher!

You know me?

Oh, you know him? How?

I followed your career
for a year.

-All-American in college...
-Yeah?

First round draft pick,
rookie of the year.

Ooh.

Whatever happened to you?

Two operations on my knee,
separated shoulder,

broken wrist.

I spend more time
in the hospital

than I do
on the playing field.

Now I'm fighting
for my job.

Oh, you're afraid they're gonna
cut you from the team, huh?

Well,
Amanda dailey's on the cruise.

She's the new owner
of the friars.

I, uh, I have to convince her
I can still play.

Well,
how you gonna do that?

Romance, wine, dine, a little
dancing under the stars.

But I don't want her
to know who I am

until I have her
where I want her.

That's the stupidest idea
I ever heard.

I didn't think she'd believe
I was her long lost brother.

You're right.
First idea's looking better.

And this is Emily's sister
and brother-in-law,

jan and John Remington.

They own a vineyard
up north.

Oh, wait a minute.
The hudstons own the vineyard.

The remingtons are
in the sporting goods...

I think.

Anyway, one of them
is gonna supply all the wine

for the wedding reception.

I just hope it's the one
that owns the vineyard.

That's nice, dad.

Listen, since Emily
isn't along this cruise,

why don't we spend tomorrow
in mazatlán together?

You mean you wanna spend
the whole day with your father?

Yeah, it'll be fun, just
the two of us like old times.

-I think that's a great idea.
-Yeah. Oh, I know.

Listen, why don't we go
to Felipe's by the sea?

We haven't been there
in ages.

[ Sighs ] Well, I was there
a week ago with Emily.

You took Emily
to our restaurant?

Now, Vicki,
it is a public place.

Other people do eat there,
you know? [ Chuckles ]

Well, maybe we could go
to the Plaza and go shopping.

You didn't take her there,
did you?

No. It's a good idea.

Consider it a date.

[ Laughs ]
Now, this is my favorite one.

All of Emily's relatives
with all their pets.

Who owns the sheepdog?

Oh, that's not a sheepdog.

That's uncle Alvin.

Look at the underwear.

♪♪

Oh, excuse me.
I don't mean to be rude.

But you seem to have
the wrong idea here.

Oh?

Yes, most people take a cruise
to get away from it all.

You seem to have
brought it all with you.

[ Chuckles ]

This is the only place I could
find to get away from the press

since I started my new job.

I own the friars.

You own a religious order?

[ Chuckles ] No, a football team
in San Jose.

Oh, those friars, yes.

I inherited it
from my grandfather,

and now I have to learn it
from the ground up.

-I'm Amanda dailey.
-John Jackson.

Must be great
to own the team.

They don't play your rules,

you can take your ball
and go home.

[ Chuckles ]
I'll remember that.

I'll let you get
back to work

if you'll consider having
dinner with me tonight?

All right.

Maybe you can explain
what a y out pass pattern is.

Oh, I wouldn't know that.

Bowling is my game.
I'll see you later.

C-414.

I think
we're getting warmer.

I think it's the heat
from the engine room.

C-416.

[ Sighs ]

This is it,
our own romantic hideaway.

[ Chuckles ]

What do you want?

This ain't no lover's Lane.

Ah, um, obviously,
I have the wrong cabin.

You my new roommate?

I had to get rid
of the other one.

Uh, uh, you did, you did?

Yeah.

He tried to bring a woman
into the cabin.

Ah, um, thanks
for seeing me off, mom.

This is your mother?

Um, yeah, yeah,
plastic surgery.

-Looks great, doesn't she?
-Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Well, uh, come on, mom.
I wanna get you ashore.

Oh, yeah.

-Phew.
-What are you doing?

You know that man
is in our suite.

-You should tell him to leave.
-You're right.

You're right.
We should be in there,

and he should be out here.

I'll tell him.
You wait here.

If I lose control,
I don't know who I'll hit.

[ Imitates punching sounds ]
Ahh.

[ Blade scraping ]

-Now, look, I think --
-people usually knock.

I didn't?
I'm sure that I did.

You didn't.

I'm sorry.

It'll never happen again.

Look, I'm Spencer.

I'm one of the performers
on the ship.

And, um, do you do
a knife-throwing act?

I'm a cook.

And there's nothing worse
than a dull knife.

Don't I know it.

-Um, look here, um, um...
-Bubba.

Right, right.
Original name.

Um, there's been, uh,
a mistake.

See, um, uh, I'm supposed
to have a cabin of my own.

I'm a ship's officer.

What's the matter?

You don't wanna room
with bubba?

Um, it's not
that I don't want to, okay?

Um, it's that I'm not allowed,
all right?

Um, um, see, it's the law
of the sea that, uh,

ship's officers have to have
their own cabins, you see?

And we wouldn't wanna mess
with the law of the sea,

would we, you know?
Um, I think, uh, I --

uh, what's that?

Oh, John. [ Chuckles ]

And thank you,
but it'll spoil my appetite.

Oh, won't matter.
You've already missed dinner.

What time is it?

9:00.

Maybe your team could chip in
and buy you a watch.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

I just got so involved in trying
to make these personnel changes.

You don't wanna
do that on an empty stomach.

I know a place where we can get
a little late-night snack

and then maybe do
some dancing.

That sounds great.
I could really use a break.

You know, I just found out
that a lot of these players

sneak out after curfew?

No, really?

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Hi, Judy, gopher.
Been looking all over for you.

Spencer, where have you
been all day?

You were supposed
to be at a staff meeting.

Oh, um,
I didn't know there was one.

Spencer,
there is one every day.

You guys have that much
to talk about?

That is where we
get our work assignments.

I don't understand.
What work?

Basically, I came on board
to perform.

Basically you came on board
to perform

as an assistant
cruise director.

That is a full-time job.

Entertaining
is only part of it.

And you are still
not in uniform.

Uh, I couldn't change.
You gave me the wrong cabin.

I'm supposed
to have a private one.

No, you're not.
You're not a ship's officer.

Oh, um,
what am I gonna do about Pearl?

I can't have my girl
bunking with me and bubba.

You brought a girl
onboard?

Yeah, you should see her.
She's a real knockout --

Spencer!

Wait, let me see
if I can squeeze her in

with one of the mermaids.

Thanks, Ms. McCoy.

I don't get it.
If I'm not a ship's officer,

I'd find a singer.

-I can't.

Because my father
has this policy.

to perform in the lounge.

No problem. I'll have
a little talk with him,

and I'll straighten it out.

Oh, oh. [ Laughs ]

Oh, I think the feeling's
coming back to my knees.

I can almost feel
where the cartilage used to be.

You climbed all 368 steps
to that aztec temple?

Oh, this will all be worth it
if I can keep my job.

So, what's your next move?

Are you gonna tell her
who you are?

Or do you go to training camp
with a bag over your head?

Timing, my man, timing.

-Hello.
-Hello.

I'll take over.

Wow. Oh, that feels good.

Ah, well, I guess
you don't need my help.

[ Door closes ]

I hope our little tour
didn't do you in.

I noticed you limping.

Just a knee injury
acting up.

Hmm. Was that the one
from the Dallas game of '79

or the Pittsburgh game
of '84?

Game's up, hatchet man.

You know, if you hadn't
been so deceitful,

I wouldn't have run you
all over puerto vallarta.

You knew.

So, what was this, John?

"I'll romance
the new lady owner

so I can have a good laugh
with the team" type thing?

No, no, it was more like
"I'll romance the new lady owner

so I can -- I can stay
with the team" type of thing.

Well, since you seem to be
so concerned about your contract

for next year...

-[ Sighs ]
-You can have it.

[ Door closes ]

Spencer: Pearl, wait.

Pearl, don't be
angry with me, okay?

Why should I be angry?

Just because you took me
into puerto vallarta

and paid no attention to me?

Wait. How can you say that?

I took you to every nightclub
in town.

You took me
to every clip joint in town.

You know, nightclubs
don't open in the afternoon.

That's why they're called
nightclubs.

Well, at least you got to see
places most people --

most tourists
never get to see.

Spencer, I saw places

most vice cops
don't get to see.

It's business, Pearl.

I was trying to find a singer
for Judy.

Those joints only have
strippers in them.

I thought some of them
would start singing.

-[ Sighs ]
-Look, try to understand.

If I'd found a singer,

it would've made
a big impression on gopher.

He'd see I could be a good
assistant cruise director.

I hope you made
a good impression on him

'cause you're making
a lousy impression on me.

We hope you enjoyed your stay
in puerto vallarta.

Our next stop is
the port of Los Angeles.

[ Knock on door ]

Yes?

[ Door closes ]

Dad?

Sir?

Vicki.

I just wanted to apologize.

I've been very rude to you
and Emily the past few days,

and I'm sorry.

Thank you for saying that.

It's just that I see
how happy you are with Emily,

and...

I was just afraid of...

Afraid of what?

Of losing me?

[ Sighs ]

Yeah.

Sounds pretty selfish,
doesn't it?

No.

I can understand
how you might think that.

You can?

Well, then can you explain
it to me?

Why would something that makes
you so happy make me so sad?

Sweetheart...

Parents are used to seeing
changes in their children,

their first day
in school, their first step,

their first date.

And as much as we wanna
keep our children

4 years old forever,

we know that someday they're
gonna grow up and leave home.

I guess that's kind of hard,
isn't it?

Mm-hmm.

Now, the hardest part
is for

the children to accept
their parents

for the changes
in their lives.

They want us
to be predictable.

You know, you're right.

I always thought of you
as...

Predictable.

[ Chuckles ]

I mean...

[ Sighs ]

Well,
it never occurred to me

that you'd be
getting married again.

Well, it never occurred to me
either. [ Chuckles ]

Oh, Vicki,
I'll always love you.

And I'll always be there
for you.

I wish we'd had this
conversation two weeks ago.

So do I.

It's all my fault.

I was so swept away
by Emily,

I didn't stop to think about
how all this was affecting you.

I'm really sorry.

I'll be okay.

Maybe it'll be better
once I get to know Emily.

I know it will be.

And just so you know,

I haven't forgotten
how to be your father.

Who were those four college boys
in mazatlán?

[ Chuckles ]

Well, actually,

it was a minister
and his wife from Indiana,

and they gave me a lift
in their station wagon.

This one -- this one
pops right back in.

Oh.

Look, I've got something
I'd like to say.

Now, please, don't beg.

I am not here to beg.

I'm here to apologize.

I've always thought I could
charm my way into anything.

Now I know why they call
football a boy's game --

'cause of guys like me
who never grew up.

I wanted so desperately to stay
in the game,

I lost track
of everything else,

including other people's
feelings.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry
I wasn't straight with you.

[ Door closes ]

In your face!
The kid is hot! Yeah!

Ace, modesty.

Oh, give me a break.
She won the last seven games.

That's enough for me.
Thank you for the match.

Oh, sure.

Quit just when I've found
my rhythm, huh?

Emily?
Do you have a minute?

I've got a few things
I'd like to say.

That's fair enough.

I guess I did all
the talking the last time.

I've been giving a lot
of thought to what you said.

And I've decided that if
anybody's gonna marry my father,

I'm glad it's gonna be you.

Well, thank you.

Under the circumstances,
that's a hearty endorsement.

Well, I admit, it took me
a while to get used to the idea.

That's all right.

I didn't expect cartwheels.

We'll just
take it nice and easy,

and hopefully we'll become
great friends.

I'd like that.

By the way, when am I gonna
hear you sing in the lounge?

When chickens wear mukluks.

My father's got
this longstanding rule.

So I can handle
your father.

You just tell me
when you're ready.

Are you serious? Uh, now!
I could sing tonight!

But you're never gonna get
my father to budge on this one.

We'll see.

Just make sure you've got
something to wear tonight.

Is this the sweater
that I bought you?

Yeah.

Good grief,
what was I thinking?

You could get a rash
from a thing like that.
