[jazzy music]

Claire, we're finalizing
our wedding plans
and you want me to go alone?

[Claire]
There's just a few
minor details left.

A few minor details?

[Claire]
The reservations
are at the plaza.

All you have to do is follow
the schedule I've laid out,
answer yes or no,

Gold or silver, Jazz
or big band, and you're done.

Why can't we do this
next weekend?

[Claire]
Charlie, please.

I owe you big time.

Uh-huh. Yes you will.

Thanks. I know
once you start to write
your book, it's gonna be great.

At the rate I'm going,
it's gonna be a great pamphlet.

I have to go pack.

[music continues]

Hi, I'm checking in,
Charlie Hudson.

What about this?

I have you in room 417
with a park view.

-Great.
-Front?

Thank you.

-[indistinct chatter]
-Sorry.

-Um, I have a reservation
for Penn.
-Thank you.

-Anna Penn.
-[clerk] Welcome to the Plaza
Hotel, Miss Penn.

Thank you.

[clerk]
Okay, I've got
your room right here.

Please take Miss Penn
to room 517.

-Certainly.
-Great, thank you.

-Enjoy your stay.
-Let me grab this for you.

Oh!

Right this way, sir.
Sir, this is your floor.

-Enjoy your stay.
-Thank you. You too.

-Here you go. Thanks.
-Thank you, Mr. Hudson.

-It's Charlie.
-Well, thanks, Charlie.

Your welcome.

-It's beautiful, isn't it?
-Yes, it is beautiful.

You know the steps there
by the fountain?

They kind of remind me
of those famous steps in Rome.

-The Spanish steps.
-Right. You ever been to Europe?

-No, but I've always
wanted to go
-Well this weekend,

take a walk in the park,
have a glass of wine
by the fountain,

-and I guarantee you'll feel
like you're in Europe.
-Thank you.

I might just do that.

-Here you go.
-Thank you very much.

-Enjoy your stay.
-Thank you.

[phone rings]

-Yeah.
-[Charlie] Henry.

Hey, Charlie,
you guys make it in okay?

Yeah, but it's just me.

Yeah. Where's the general?

Uh, she went to London.

-Drug smuggling?
-[chuckles] No, publishing.

That's too bad. I could've
locked her up for a while.

Very funny. Hey, you want
to meet me for dinner?

Oak room, 8:30.

The oak room?
I hope you brought steak money.

I've got steak money. Actually,
I have Claire's credit card.

I'll be there.
I'll see you at 8:30.

All right, Henry. Bye.

[chuckles]

[smooth jazz music]

-Can I get you something?
-Uh, yeah.

-Rolling rock, please.
-Rolling rock coming right up.

-It's good to see you, buddy.
-Hey, it's good to see you too.

-You're looking good.
-Yeah, what you gotta do
is smoke, drink

and eat everything the doctor
say will kill you and you can
look this good too.

-What will you be having, sir?
-I'll have what he's having
in a bourbon chaser.

-All right.
-It's good to see you
let up on the hard stuff.

Hey, this is the first drink
I've had since I got out

-of the camp.
-So, what are we drinking to?

To you getting married
and not me.

[both] Cheers.

Bartender,
you gave me an empty glass.

Sorry, it won't happen again.

Let me tell you
something, Charlie.

I may not like Claire, but I do
believe in the idea of marriage.

-You do.
-Absolutely.

And if ever I meet a girl who
drinks bourbon and shaves,

-I'll marry her in a minute.
-You know, I can recall
seeing you with a few women

-that needed a shave.
-Yeah, but they didn't drink.

-Which reminds me,
did you go last week?
-Yep.

That's a start. I'm proud
of you. So how'd it go?

Great. I stood up,
said, "Hello, my name is Henry.

I'm an alcoholic, told
my story and then I sat down."

Yeah. What was it like?

Well, the story I told is a hell
of a lot more interesting

-than my life.
-No, you didn't.

Couldn't resist. They ate it up.

-Then What happened?
-Nothing. We all
went out for a drink.

-You're the devil.
-I know.

Oh, man, look at this beauty.

Hi.

Um, table for one, please.

Yes, thank you.

What's that about?

Oh, we-- we took
the elevator up together.

That's it, that's the big juice?

What do you want me to say?

Oh, okay. She's--
she's a spy and we're both
planning on making

love before
we're assassinated by the CIA.

-Works for me.
-Gentlemen, your table is ready.

[chuckles] Nice.

[smooth piano music]

Thanks.

Thank you.

Can I get you gentlemen
anything to start?

-Just keep this stuff coming.
-Very good.

-And for the other gentlemen.
-He'll have the blonde.

I'm afraid I can only offer you
dishes from the kitchen.

Very funny guy.

I'll just have
another beer please.

-And we'll split a shrimp
cocktail. He's buying.
-Very good.

You know, if I was lucky, she'd
really turn out to be a spy

and you'd get shot
while making love to her,

-and then I'd write the story.
-You?

Yeah, I bet you I could write
that romantic thriller crap just
as good as the next guy.

Tell you what? Forget about her.
I'll shoot myself and you can

write my tragic biography.

Yeah, you think it would sell?

Okay.

Okay, let's see here,
shrimp cocktail, porterhouse,
cheesecake.

Hey, I'm already breaking 100.

-Here's your key,
enjoy your stay.
-Thank you.

[indistinct chatter]

Sorry I can't help you out
tomorrow, pal.

I understand, someone's
got to protect us civilians.

Yeah, I miss having you
out there, partner.

Yeah, well,
that was another life.

You were the best out there,
Charlie.

You both know what
happened that day, Henry.

Yes. You risked your life.

You did your job.
That's what happened.

Okay. I'll drop it.

You know me, if I'm not
drinking, I'm talking.

[chuckles] Night, partner.

[gentle music]

Hey, look, we're still on
for Cha Cha's on Sunday?

-Yeah, Cha Cha's, Sunday.
-All right, good.

Hey, Charlie,
I'll keep a warm cup of coffee

and an extra donut
for you just in case.

Oh, can you hold that
for me please.

-Thank you. Hi.
-Hi.

Um, you need to take your finger
off the door open button.

-Oh, sorry.
-Mind pressing five?

Thank you.

-So, did you have a nice dinner?
-Yeah, it was great.

Thanks. How was yours?

Great. It was great.

I recommend
the Washington salmon.

I'll remember that.

-You know, Washington's
our 20th largest state.
-Really?

Average rainfall of 32 inches.

Ranked 23rd in suicides.
Most people think it's first
because of all the rain

but it's not.

Oh.

Okay. Well, goodnight.

[chuckles] Goodnight.

[sighs]

[rain splattering]

This is great.

Front desk. This is Juliet.
How can I help you, Mr. Hudson?

Yeah. Can you tell me
what's above my room?

Above... That would be room 517.

-Why?
-Yeah. Well there's a leak
coming from up there.

You better send someone.
I'm gonna need a rowboat.

I'll find someone
immediately, sir.

[knocking on door]

Oh, is this your room?

No, I'm in the room below.

Oh, I've been banging
on the door here, you know.
[clears throat]

Hi, I'm so sorry.

I fell asleep in the tub,
the water's all over
the place.

Oh, well, that's all right.
It's all right.

-It's happened before.
-Really?

Excuse me.

So, um...

[door closes]

So, are you--
you're on this floor now?

Uh, no.
Actually, I'm right below you.

Oh, no.

-Did the water
come down in your room?
-It was just a trickle.

I mean, I was a little concerned
so I called the front desk.

I'm so embarrassed.
I never ever sleep in the tub.

It's just
I was listening to Sinatra
and I just dozed right off.

-You like Sinatra?
-Oh, I love Frank.

Yeah, me too.
I have a bunch of his albums.

He has 21 gold, two platinum
and one multi-platinum.

-Really?
-Yeah.

-You really do love Frank.
-Yeah.

[door opens]

Okay, we're cleaning up
the water.

-I got a heater set up in there.
-Thank you so much.

No problem. My pleasure.

-Well, let's go down and check
out your room, okay?
-Yeah.

-Okay. Right.
-Well, goodnight.

-I'm Charlie
-Anna.

-Yeah, goodnight, Anna.
-Goodnight.

-Thank you.
-Mm-hmm.

-Right.
-Hmm.

[traffic humming]

-Mr. Hudson?
-Charlie.

-I'm Madeline.
-Charlie?

Anna.

Well, ain't this something,
you two date in high school?

No, um, I flooded
his room last night.

-Really?
-Did the heaters work?

Felt like a piece of toast by
this morning. Did the bed dry?

Yeah, I sort of
slept sideways.
So you're getting married?

-I am. And you are too.
-Yeah.

You two want to look at towels
or go right to bed linens?

Towels, towels sound like
a good place to start.

Do you prefer to register
alone by the way?

Oh, no, no, no, no.
The towels are great.

You can never
have enough towels.

So... you like?

[whimsical music]

-Good. What color?
-I like white. [chuckles]

-Charlie. What about you?
-Well, actually, I'm kind of
partial to white too.

Really?
Why doesn't that surprise me?

My mother always said that--
that white was
the easiest to keep clean

-because it was the easiest
to see getting dirty.
-Cute.

You remember laundry anecdotes.
Now, for your first

year of marriage, you'll be
spending a lot of time

in the bedroom. So you want
your sheets to feel great

and look like they are begging
you to be made love on.

So, where do you spend your
time after the first year?

Your lawyer's office. Look,
when it's all said and done,

marriage is the one institution
that has lasted
since the beginning of time.

Well, marriage and prostitution.

I'm sure that's just
an ironic coincidence.

So, I recommend that we go
with the Egyptian cotton.

Hey, did you know
that the United States produces
one fifth of all the cotton

-grown in the world?
-No, no, I didn't.

In the china section,
we contemplate.
In the house-wear section,

we just list the most expensive
one when we can't decide.

-Okay?
-Okay.

Yeah. Makes sense.

Please. 57% of the couples

that come here that
I register ends up lasting.
Pretty good, huh?

Now, there are over 60 different
designs you can select from.

You want to take a minute
and look these over?

I'm gonna go
take a powder with coffee.

And I'll be back
in a few minutes.

[music intensifies]

I never-- I never knew
there were this many designs.

I have my grandmother's silver.

Oh, so it's just me
who has to decide.

Oh, no, my--
my fiancée doesn't like it.

Why?

Because it's-- it's old and,
you know, she-- she likes new.

I think some things
get better with time.

You know, when I was a little
kid, every Sunday night,

we'd have this--
this family dinner
and what I really loved

was watching my grandmother take
every little piece and polish it

and clean it, and then put
it back in a little wooden box

she kept everything in.

[gentle music]

Well...

...it's not my place to say...

...but I'd say you have
no need for new silverware.

Yeah, I guess not.

[sighs] I'd never make it as
a pioneer. So, how we doing?

Uh, well, actually,
it's all a little overwhelming.

Yes. Very.

[chuckles] Hey, nobody ever
said this was gonna be fun.

I think maybe, you know, Anna
and I could use a lunch break.

Definitely,
a lunch break would be great.

Lunch! Absolutely.
Hey, I'd love to join you two.

Unfortunately,
I'm on strict Jenny Craig.
So I brown bagged it.

So, what do you say we meet
in one hour, is that good?

Great!

One hour. Great.
We'll see you in an hour.

Yeah.

See you then.

So, who are you
marrying, Charlie?

Claire Parker, November 22nd.

Oh, you're getting married
a week after me.

Well, you'll have to call me
and tell me what
married life's like.

Okay, deal!

-Who are you marrying?
-I'm marrying David Allen.

-He's an advertising executive.
-Executive.

So, so where is David on
this most auspicious occasion?

He actually got stuck in Paris
closing a deal on a new client.

An airline.

-How about Claire?
-She's-- she's in London
with Edward Rogers.

-Edward Rogers, the writer?
-Yeah, she's an editor.

Wow, she must be good.
He's such a great writer.

Yeah, she's-- she's
very good at what she does.

-What about you? What do you do?
-I'm a writer.

Great.
What name do you write under?

-Charlie Hudson.
-It's a great name.

-When I write a book,
I'll put it on the cover.
-Are you writing a book now?

Yeah.

What's it about? How long is it?

Well, I'm on page six and right
now it's about six pages long.

[laughs]
So you just got started?

No, I've actually been
writing it for about six months.

Oh. [laughs] Sorry.

-Oh, nice. Very, very nice.
-I'm sorry.

You know,
I have friends who laugh at me.

I don't need to reach out
to strangers for this.

I always thought
I'd get married here.

-What made you change your mind?
-David. He thinks
it's for tourists,

-but I think it's romantic.
-Yeah, it is.

How would you like to be the guy
who changes the bulbs?

-Must be thousands of them.
-Actually 500,000.

Please don't tell me that
you counted them all.

No, silly. I read that.

Who do you think I am, Rain Man?

[both laughing]

I just hope you'll think
of me on your next wedding.

-Excuse me.
-Just joking.

A little bridal registry humor.

Oh, thank you, Gail.

If you need anything else,
just call me.

I'll be here waiting for Mr.
Right to walk through the door.

[traffic humming]

Huh, looks like we got rain.

You know Central Park recorded
120.7 rain days last year?

No, I-- I didn't.

-Now you do.
-Um, Hey, have--
have a great wedding.

Thank you. You too.

-Thanks.
-And good luck with your book.

-[chuckles]
-I'm so sorry about laughing.

It's okay.

-You have a nice laugh.
-I've always thought my teeth

-showed too much when I laugh.
-You have nice teeth.

34. That's two more
than average.

That's a plus. [chuckles]

Well... I better go.

-So...
-Yeah, me too.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Okay, bye.

[door buzzes]

[chuckles] Rickie Valentino
at your service.

-Charlie Hudson.
-Hudson?

You don't remember me?

No, I'm sorry. I don't.

You arrested me
in the Gershwin robbery.

The jewelry store in Waverly?

That's the one.

You know, that-- that was
a pretty impressive attempt.

You almost pulled that off.

-Thank you.
-So, how did you get this job?

It's my cousin's shop.

I'm watching it while he's away.

So, when's he coming back?

Eight to ten years.

So, what can I do you for?

Well, I'm looking for some
wedding gifts for groomsmen.

-Who's the sucker
who's getting married?
-Me.

Oh, congratulations.

Thanks. So what do you suggest?

I suggest you don't get married.

But if your mind is set,
get them these here,

-gold plated cufflinks.
-Gold plated?

Believe me, no one can tell
they ain't real gold.

They say gold plated
right here on the back.

I got an engraving gun.

Just rub out the work plated.

Did you have anything else?

Pens. Everybody loves a pen.

I could cut you a real good deal
with these here pens.

-Not bad. How much?
-For you?

-Ten bucks.
-That's all? Do they work?

I guarantee them.
And if I ain't around,
just remember they're just $10.

Besides, once this wedding is
over, you're never going to see

-these guys anymore anyway.
-What makes you say that?

Look, all I know is that every
guy I know who ever got married

ended up never finding
the time to do all the stuff

he liked to do
before he got married.

-Like-- Like what?
-I don't know, stuff.
Playing poker,

shooting pool, going to
the track, picking up broads.

-You know, stuff.
-Can you wrap the pens?

Absolutely. I can wrap them
up for you in a few hours.

Uh, you want to leave a deposit?

No.

[traffic humming]

-Hello.
-Hi.

-May I help you?
-Sure. I'm looking for

-a maid of honor gift.
-Oh, who's getting married?

I am.

Is it your first?

-Yes.
-How nice.

Well, let me see.

Perhaps that
display case over there.

[mellow music]

No, no. No, no.

First marriage. First marriage.
How close are you to her?

Oh, Tracey.
I've known her my whole life,
when we were little girls--

So, a long time.

-A long time.
-How about this beautiful
pair of earrings?

Those are beautiful, wow.

-Mm-hmm.
-How much are those?

$4,000.

That's a bit steep.

I see. Perhaps a key chain.

Wow, that's beautiful.

That's a nice choice.

Tracey would love that.

$1,700.

I'll take it.

Fine.

Francesca, this will
need to be wrapped up.

[music continues]

Run the card.

So how'd you hook him?
Pardon the expression.

we met at an auction?

How much you go for? [laughs]

[laughs]

It was an art auction.

Of course.

[both speaking Italian]

Well, there you go.
Thank you for shopping
at Bulgari and good luck.

Good luck to you too.

Hey, how'd it go today?

-[sighs] I'm starting
to contemplate a little bit.
-Oh, no, that bad?

I think a prerequisite
for anyone in the wedding

businesses is to hate
the concept of marriage.

Hey, listen, you know what?
I think I'm gonna have to take

a rain check on dinner, had a
little technical malfunction.

-What happened?
-Mrs. Goldberg came in for her
usual color today, right?

And Chico unplugged the timer.

So I'm like sitting there
for the next hour and a half

wondering why
the damn buzzer never went off.

What happened to Mrs. Goldberg?

She won't need her roots
done for about ten years.

She's got frosted brain cells.

Oh my God.

No, no, no.
Mrs. Chavez, it's okay.

Trust me. [speaking in Spanish]

So, these guys,
they were real jerks. Huh?

Yeah.

-Everyone except for Charlie.
-Excuse me, who's Charlie?

Oh, he's getting married
about the same time as me
so we shopped together.

Really?
And what does Charlie look like?

-Well, he's kind of cute.
-Ooh, cute means hot.

Cute means cute.

He's a nice person.
At least he seems to be.

-And so?
-And so what?
We went shopping together!

What do you think happened?
Don't answer that.

[sighs] God, girl,
you are getting married.

He's getting married.
I mean, what's the danger?

A little fun on the 11th hour.

You are so bad.

What?

I gotta go.

Hey, we still on for tomorrow?

Yeah, we're still on.

[indistinct chatter]

Oh. Mr. Hudson,
I have a fax for you, sir.

-Thank you.
-Your welcome.

[Claire]
Charlie, I hope the arrangements
are going well.

Sorry, I missed your call.
Edward Rogers has been
giving me a full tour of London.

-Hi.
-Hi, how'd you make out
with the rest of your day?

[sighs] I'm exhausted.

I'm gonna go up,
get some dinner,

-take a hot bath
and hit the hay.
-A bath.

[laughs] I promise I won't
play Frank this time.

Yeah.

-Goodnight.
-Anna?

Um, you know,
I was just wondering, um,

well, since we both have to eat,
if maybe, you know,
you wanted to join me

for dinner. I mean--
I mean, here in the hotel.

Um, I think I'm just going to
get something sent up, actually.

Oh, sure.
Okay. Maybe some other time.

Thanks, Charlie.

-Goodnight.
-Night.

-[voicemail] You have
one new message.
-[dial tone]

Uh, hi, Anna, it's David,
I guess you're at dinner.

Everything's going well here
in Paris, it's just really late.

I'm gonna get some sleep.
I hope to be home by Monday

and I hope the wedding plans
are going well, goodnight.

Oh, I love you.

[dial tone beeps]

Oh...

...and I love you too.

[classical music]

-Is the invitation still open?
-Yeah, please, sit down.

[Anna clears throat]

-Enjoy your meal.
-[both] Thanks.

-What made you change your mind?
-I figured the bath idea

was too risky. So...

Thank you.

Wow. It's beautiful.

Yes, it is beautiful.

-Can I pour you some wine?
-Yeah. Please.

A toast to our weddings,
and to you both, Charlie.

-And to my book,
if I ever finish it.
-Okay, cheers.

-Good?
-Very good.

So, Charlie...

...how did you know
that Claire was the one?

Well, I've-- I've known
Claire for-- for five years.

And when we first met,
I was just entering the academy.

She had this-- this energy,
this-- this ambition.

And it was-- it was infectious.

Sometimes I feel that with
David, he's also very ambitious.

I mean, he thrives
on the challenge
of getting a new client.

And for me, it's just,
for me, it's always been

the joy I receive
from my students.

-You're a teacher?
-Mm-hmm. I teach fourth grade.

-[laughs]
-What?

Well, that explains
why you've been filling me in

on all these--
these unusual statistics.

-Have I been doing that a lot?
-Yes.

[sighs] When you're
around kids all the time,

I mean, they ask
every question imaginable.

[laughs]
After a while, you tend to know
more information than necessary.

David doesn't always understand
how important it is to me.

I guess, compared to his career,
it must seem pretty trivial.

You know, I mean, he gets
an airline and I teach kids

how many cows
are left on the farm
after you subtract the sheep.

You know, I always thought
that it was unfair
that the sheep

were always the ones
being subtracted.

-It's not easy being a sheep.
-Apparently.

And the two trains
that leave the station

-in opposite directions?
-They arrive at their
destinations at the same time.

So what you're saying,
basically, is that this is all

-designed to torment
nine year olds.
-It's a plot.

Come on now.
Just one little kiss.

Just a little one
right there on the cheek.

Come on. I've been asking
for all night over here.

[upbeat music playing
in the background]

Oh, come on.
You're breaking my heart.

Goodnight, Miss Right.

Batting a thousand, huh, Henry?

-I was born 100 years too late.
-500 years too late.

Whenever it was when men ruled
and women listened.

[bartender]
I don't believe there ever was
a time like that, Henry.

You're a good friend, Barney.
Now go away.

[Barney chuckles]

Hello there.

And what can I get you, miss?

-Drunk.
-Okay, what's your poison?

-Bourbon.
-Bourbon.

Put that on my tab, Barney.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

-You mind?
-You earned it.

-Not yet. But I'm working on it.
-Listen, I've got to warn you,

-I'm way past the wooing stage.
-Wooing?

[chuckles] Oh, no.
Who said anything about wooing?

I was thinking more about
sweeping you off your feet.

I'm already off my feet.

See how good I am?

Yeah.

-Just some strawberries please.
-Strawberries,

-I thought you said
we were gonna go for it.
-Oh, right I'll walk

on the wild side.
Slip a little cheesecake
under those strawberries.

-Now you're talking.
-[waiter] Cheesecake it is.
Very good choice.

-Ooh.
-And then there's
the fruit tart.

I don't know. [chuckles]

Oh.

-Enjoy.
-Thank you.

-Mm.
-Good?

-Better than sex.
-Really?

-I can't believe
I just said that.
-Probably having sex

with the wrong guy.
The cheesecake is good but--

-Charlie!
-What? You started it.

Behave yourself.

Mm.

[romantic music playing
in the background]

Henry...

What do you do that affords you
the luxury of fine bourbon?

What I do doesn't afford
fine bourbon.

-How do you pay your bar tab?
-I don't.

And just how do you
get away with that?

-I'm a cop.
-I didn't know they let
cops drink for free.

They don't, but I'm kind of
a good luck charm around here.

I've been coming here
for ten years, and in ten years

-they've only been
robbed five times,
-They've been robbed five times

and for that
they let you drink for free?

That was the only five nights
I wasn't drinking here.

[both laughing]

So, Charlie, you quit
being a cop so you could write?

No, I live for another reason.

-But I wanted to write.
-what was the other reason?

Well, I started out
in the robbery division, but
my last few years on the force,

I was a negotiator.

A negotiator...

I spent a lot of time
on ledges talking people in.

One night... Henry and I,
we took a jumper call...

...and, um...

...she was just a kid.

Yeah.

I talked to her all night.

[somber music]

She wanted out.

-I'm sure you did all you could.
-No. No.

All I could would have
brought her in.

The review board was satisfied
that I did it right,
but I wasn't.

So, I left.

And when I thought
that maybe writing about it,

I'd figure things out.

They say that if you write
about events in your life
that you can't control...

...it helps
to make them bearable.

-I hope it does, Charlie.
-Yeah, me too.

[Tracey]
So, now I'm her maid
of honor. Right?

But no matter
how hard I try, I just,
I can't be happy for her.

Well, that's something else
we got in common besides

the bourbon, because my best
friend is getting married too,

-and I don't like
his choice one bit.
-So, what do we do?

I don't know what you can do,
but I can shoot him.

[both laughing]

I had a great time tonight,
Charlie.

Yeah, me too.

It's been a long time since
I had dinner with a man

other than David.

That's why I turned it down
at first. It just felt weird.

-I just didn't know
if it was right.
-I understand.

And now... did it--
did it feel right?

Yeah.

Yeah, it felt right.

Um...

It's getting kind of late.
We should go.

-Yeah.
-Yeah. [chuckles]

So, what's on
your agenda for tomorrow?

I'm listening to bands.

[sighs] We still haven't
picked our band yet, actually.

Well, you're welcome to come
and listen to them with me

and see if there's any you like.

Okay. Promised my friend Richie
that I'd give his cousin

-a chance, so.
-Sounds like fun.

[romantic song playing]

Well, Henry... [chuckles]
we're at that weird hour.

Yep. I'm weird.

So, uh, where we going?

Mm.

I should get some sleep.

Now, Henry, you don't really
think that we should go home

together now, do you?

I don't know. Do I?

No.

'Cause, you know, I'm a lady.

And you're a lamb. Right?

I'm a lamb.

That's right.

You're a lamb.

[chuckles] I won't be home.

Okay.

* I've got nothing to say, no *

* Yes, can't you see? *

* To feel better than I do *

* There's nothing in my life *

This city ain't safe at night.

It is now.

* Oh *

* It's been so long *

* So long *

* Oh, I forgot what love is *

* Yeah *

* Been *

* Been so long *

* Babe *

* I, I forgot *

* What love is *

[music fades]

[dance music playing]

Hey, how's it going?

I'm Bobby Love.

I'm Charlie, Richie's friend.

-This is Anna.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Richie's friend,

Richie's friend.
Um, so, where's the kid?

-The kid?
-The Bar Mitzvah boy.

No, there must be
a misunderstanding.
It's for a wedding.

Look, look, don't worry
about it. They play
the same music at weddings.

So, this must be the lucky lady.

-Nice.
-[chuckles]

-Actually, we're just friends.
-She's getting married too.

So I thought
she could listen in.

Hey, no problem. Look,
you guys pick the same band,

-I'll give you a discount.
What do you say?
-No, actually...

-[clears throat] I'm just, um,
I'm helping him today.
-Nonsense, nonsense.

Look, you come back
to the Love Lounge,

I'll hook you guys up real
good, all right? Come on back.

All right.
Let's get started here, guys,
with the best of Bobby Love's

Love Lounge Collection.
Let's go.

[chaotic rock music]

-These guys are good, right?
-They've got quite
a stage presence.

Hey, your friend
has a good eye for music.

-That's real polyester,
you know.
-That's okay.

-Do you have any other bands?
-Absolutely.

[off-pitch singing]
* You'll be a part of me *

Oh, now, this guy I can get
you a good deal on.

He used to be a dentist.
Look at those teeth, huh?

He puts his patients out
without anesthesia.

You have anybody, you know,
who plays like the popular hits?

-This was popular.
-I think what he's trying to say
is like something more Top 40.

In 1940 this was Top 40.

Let me fast forward here.

[chaotic rock music]

-[tape fast-forwards]
-[funk music]

* You stole my dog *

* Traveling crazy
crazy, crazy *

[singing loudly]

To it!

[women singing loudly]

[Bobby]
There she is. Brenda
and the Bodacious Tatas.

-She's lovely.
-Don't encourage him.

* Goodbye, my Coney Island... *

[Bobby]
And here's another way to go.

These guys never took a lesson.
They just picked it up

-on their own.
-Wow, they're good.

I'll give you guys
a copy of their 8-track
to take with you.

Hey, just make sure to tell
Richie I took good care of you.

Don't worry, I'm gonna take
good care of Richie.

[sniggers]

Next time I see Richie,
I'm gonna shoot him.

Hey, it could have been worse.
He could have recommended
the caterer.

Oh, yeah. Claire would
love that. I can just see
all her South Hampton

socialites eating
hot dogs and ice cream bars.

Hey, I like hot dogs
and ice cream bars.

Well, Richie will take
really good care of you then.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean
to waste your morning.

You didn't, really, it was fun.

Besides, I missed out
on that whole disco scene, so.

I didn't. To this day,
just the sight of polyester
sends me into a seizure.

[chuckles] Well, I'll make sure
I'll let you know
if I see any coming our way.

Usually by the time
you spot polyester
it's a little too late.

Help the homeless, Street News.
Street News,help the homeless.

Street News.
Help the homeless, Street News.

Street News,help the homeless.

-Mickey?
-Charlie.

-Mickey, what the hell
are you doing?
-Cynthia cleaned me out.

She called the IRS on me.

And that was that.
So, uh, what's new with you?

Well, I'm getting married.

[laughs hysterically]

That-- that was something.

I have to stop
in this church for a minute.

-You want to come with me?
-Going to confess?

No. Father Fitzpatrick's
been my priest since childhood.

-He's performing the ceremony.
I just want to say hello.
-Sure. Okay.

[church-bell ringing]

Charlie. [chuckles]

It's so good to see you.

I was so glad
to get the message
that you might be coming by.

[chuckles]
It's been way too long.

I've known him
since he was just a little lad.

He would sneak
into the girls' locker room

through the air vents,
and take photographs here.

-[both laughing]
-Yeah, sit, sit, sit, sit.

Oh, look at the two of you.

Such a beautiful couple.

Now, let me just check on that
date, November 22nd. Right?

-Yes, Father, but--
-Yes, the 22nd.

I haven't been performing
as many ceremonies as I used to.

Everybody lives with each other
first these days,

and then they decide
not to get married.

Father, let me explain.
We're not getting married.

Now, now,
everyone gets the jitters.

You don't understand.
We're practically strangers.

Well, we're all strangers
at first, Charles.

It takes a lifetime
to really get to know someone,

that's the beauty of marriage.
Each day you discover
another reason

why you chose the one you love.

Charlie, may I?

Father, um,
we're marrying other people.

You've fallen for others
during your engagement?

[grumbles]
Let me tell you a little story.

A man walked for miles in
the desert having lost his way.

Oh, no, no.
That's the one for adultery.

Uh...

-...you two haven't
slept together, have you?
-No, Father!

-So that one won't apply.
-Father, this is Anna.

We-- we met
by chance this weekend.

Um, Claire is my fiancée.

Really?

Oh. [chuckles] I apologize
for the sermon.

-[both chuckle]
-You two just seemed
like a couple to me.

-So I assumed.
-No, Anna and I
are just friends.

Friends.

I usually have
much better instincts.

Well, Father,
we don't want to keep you.

I just wanted to see you.
And it means a lot that you'll
be performing the ceremony.

I wouldn't miss it. Huh?

And it was
a pleasure meeting you, Anna.

-We have three masses a day.
Come visit us.
-Thank you. I will.

Confession is at 7:30, Charles.

But come early.
There's quite a line.

Thank you, Father.

You know... time...

...is something
that nobody seems
to want to take anymore.

The heart that loves
will stand the test of time.

It has the strength to wait
because it has no fear of time.

It knows only that it loves
and that it will do so forever.

You two, take the time to enjoy.

And I'll see you on the 22nd.

Thank you, Father.

[gentle music]

I gotta go, Charlie.

Yeah, me too.

I'll see you later.

See you later, Anna.

I don't like it
when you call my fiancé a nut.

Darling, the man comes
to my house for dinner.

I come back from the bathroom,
he's vacuuming the living room.

He's anal-retentive, not nuts.

I don't know
what the technical terms are,

but by me I know that
there's something wrong.

He's getting better.
People are not perfect.

Darling, you are about
to make the biggest
commitment of your life.

I don't want to see you
make the biggest mistake
of your life.

-David loves me.
-Yeah? Well, let me
ask you something.

When is the last time
that he sent you flowers?

Or-- or bought you
a hallmark? Huh?

He does other things instead.

-I forgot he dusts.
-Cute.

Listen, sweetheart,
whatever problems he has now

are only going
to escalate later.

-What makes you say that?
-When I met your father,
God rest his soul,

he had this little habit
of scratching his head.

It was no big deal.

He just did it
when he got nervous.

Well, we come home
from the honeymoon

-and you don't want to know
what areas it spread to.
-Mother, please.

[chuckles] When you were
a little girl, you used to say

that someday a knight on a white
horse was gonna sweep you away.

And I used to tell you, settle
for a guy in a white Cadillac.

Well, I was wrong. Don't settle.

Mom...

...you're gonna have to trust
that I know what's
going to make me happy.

-Whatever you do,
I'll be there for you.
-Thanks, Mom.

Even if it tears my heart out.

-[laughter]
-[Henry] Hey, look who's here?

Hey! Chalu!
Sit down, sit down.

[kisses]

Long time. What, you forget
about your friend Cha Cha?

-No, never.
It's good to see you, Cha Cha.
-Same here.

Sit down. I'll get you and this
bum some of Mama's tiramisu.

[upbeat music playing
in the background]

-Well, there he is.
Right on time.
-I'm sorry.

I've had six double espressos,
so don't let it throw you
if I drop down

-and do 1,100 push-ups.
-I went to see Richie's cousin
this morning,

-Bobby Love.
-That maniac?

-So you know
what my morning's been like.
-Enough said.

-If it hadn't been for Anna...
-Anna? Who's Anna?

The spy, remember?

-The one
from the restaurant? You dog.
-No, no, no.

It's not like that,
she's getting married too

and we met at Bergdorf's. We've
just been shopping together.

-What?
-You meet a beautiful
woman on an elevator.

You spend the weekend with her.
I'm out hunting every night.

I sleep with my cat.

-Look who's coming. [laughing]
-Behave yourself.

Oh, hello, darlings. [kisses]

Oh, I am so sorry I'm late.
Anna, darling, you look great.

Thank you. And it's good
to see you too, Judith.

-Well, have I missed
any nice girl talk?
-No, Mrs. Ellen.

Oh, call me mom.
If that's okay with you, Judith.

-Of course.
-You can even pay
for the wedding. [laughs]

[laughs] Oh my God!

I mean, that is hysterical.

-[both laughing]
-May I take your order.

[chuckles] Why don't
you go first?

Oh, thank you, dear.

I would like
the vegetarian salad,

the vegetarian dressing,
and the vegetarian soup

-with a glass of carrot juice.
-And for you?

I'll have a hamburger, rare.

-And a scotch.
-[waitress] Very good.

-And what would you like?
-Just some Pellegrino please.

-You're not eating?
-I'm not hungry.

[Judith]
Well...

-[chuckles]
-Well, there we are.

You can't be too careful.

Now, I'm just going to run
to the little girl's room

and I'll be right back,
daughter. [laughs]

-What are you doing?
What are you doing?
-[blabbering]

Infecting her.

So, tell me, what's she like?

She's... she's fun.

She's easy to talk to.

She's smart. She's a teacher.

-Oh yeah, what grade?
-Fourth.

Hey, you should ask her
about the two trains.

-I did, they arrive
at the same time.
-I knew it.

Let me ask.

Um... do you believe
in love at first sight?

-You mean the Cupid theory?
-Cupid theory?

Yeah, that's what they call it.

Let me ask you something.

Why do you think
Cupid uses an arrow?

Not a feather or a cotton ball
or the back of a soft bedroom
slipper, but an arrow.

I don't know.
It's... it's metaphoric.

It's-- an arrow
gets your attention.
It makes you feel something.

No, it's because an arrow
blinds you or kills you.

-So you don't believe in it.
-Yeah, I do believe in it.

I think you find love
and then the arrow pokes you
in the eye and blinds you.

Then you spend the rest
of your life bumping into things
hoping to see again.

I'm starting to understand
why women tend to avoid you.

Actually,
men tend to avoid me too.

You are not going
to make me wear this, are you?

It looked better
on the mannequin.

Well, have her wear it
down the aisle.

Just try the cream, okay?

Thanks.

So you just met this guy
and you think you're in love?

No, I'm telling you,
he's not like any other guy
I've ever met before.

-Why?
Because he's never done time?
-Mind yourself, honey.

Let me ask you something.

Do you believe in love
at first sight?

I don't know. I just wonder

how many love at first sights
really last, you know?

-Or turn out to be true love.
-Yeah, you know,
every time I thought

I found it, it turned into mush.

How many times
have you thought you found it?

I don't know, like ten or 11?

You're selective.

So, you don't think that there's
only one person in the world

-you're supposed to be with?
-I think there's two.

The first one takes all
your money when she leaves you.

Then a year later, you meet the
second one. Since you've got no
money left for her to take,

she just rips your heart out
and then she leaves you.

So what I'm saying is,
there's probably two out there.

-You're a real happy guy.
-Show me a happy guy,

I'll show you a guy on Prozac.

-Where do you get
all this hostility from?
-Talk Radio.

What's with
all the Cupid questions?

Nothing.
Just something to talk about.

Uh-huh.

-You can't ignore this.
-Ignore what?

-Listen, this is important.
-So is this.

You really like this guy.
I can see it in your eyes.

In nine months
I'm marrying David Allen,
whom I love and adore.

-Who you respect and appreciate,
you don't love him.
-How can you say that?

Listen, kid, I've known you
nearly all my life,

you know, and I couldn't live
with myself if I wasn't honest
with you.

Do you know that for the past
two years I haven't seen you

laugh as much as you have today?

You know, he may be a great guy,
but I'm your best friend.

And you know what?
Maybe there is such a thing
as love at first sight,

but you gotta
have your eyes open to see it.

My eyes are open.

What about looking
at this guy, Charlie?

Charlie is getting married.
I'm getting married.

Exactly!
You're perfect for each other.

-You both know you already
want to get married.
-Stop. Tracey, stop.

Okay... just stop.

I'm sorry, Anna, you know,
I got a big mouth, just...

It's not you.
I'm just a little emotional.

I think lunch with my mom
and Mrs. Allen did me out.

I check into the plaza
for one week and my whole
life turns upside down.

[chuckles]

What?

You really
do like this guy, don't you?

Haven't you heard
a word I've said?

Yes.

I've been listening.

And I haven't seen you get this
worked up since Danny Richards

took Betty Delvecchio
to the prom instead of you.

Oh, thanks for reminding me,
I slept all night

in that damn taffeta dress.

[both laughing]

[sighs]

[gentle piano music]

I just want what's best for you,
you know?

-I know.
-I want you to know
what love feels like

in the pit of your stomach.

What crazy love feels like
even if it's just for a moment.

-Crazy love.
-Yeah.

You ever feel it?

Yeah, once.

-Tommy O'Casey?
-Yeah.

I remember when we used to walk
through the neighborhood,

you know, and... [sighs]
I wish the whole world
could see us together.

We'd stop at Ray's Pizza
and I couldn't even eat.

I'd just stare at Tommy sucking
down his Coke and two slices.

Then he'd take me into
his uncle Tony's butcher shop.

Then he'd lean in,
press up against me.

And before our lips
would touch...

...my lips were just quivering.

-Quivering?
-Yeah.

Yeah. My stomach,
you know, would ache,

my heart would pound.

I mean, I've been with lots
of guys since, but I have not
felt crazy love again.

-What's Tommy doing now?
-Mm. He gained 50 pounds.

He's working in Jersey City
selling lawn furniture at Sears.

[chuckles]

[sighs] Okay.

I know you don't like David.

I know he's not Mr. Romantic.

But he's good to me.

I finally feel like I don't
have to chase after someone.

It's not complicated.

He's not complicated.

All my life I've waited for
this thing you call crazy love.

I'm just willing
to accept the fact
that if I can't feel crazy...

...then at least
I want to feel happy. Okay?

I'm gonna marry David Allen.

I need you to be there.

[sniffles] Okay?

Yeah. I'll be there.

Thank you.

You're my best friend, right?

[chuckles]

So, partner, have a safe trip
back to the burbs tomorrow.

I will, take care of yourself.
See you in a couple of weeks.

Yeah, good. And we'll have
a couple of beers

-and I'll teach you
more about love.
-Okay.

Hey, if you even think
you love her, tell her.

I can't stop thinking about it.
I mean, I'm just thinking crazy.

Could be. What if she ends up
being the one that got away?

-Thanks, Henry.
-For what?

-For always knowing what to say.
-Just don't let on
that I'm an old softie

or I'll have to shoot you
where you stand.

I got a reputation to protect.

Your secret's safe with me.

Good luck
with the bourbon lady, huh?

I'm telling you, Charlie.
If I find out she shaves,
it just might be a wedding.

[laughs] See you.

Take care.

[phone ringing]

-Hi, David.
-No, it's-- it's Charlie.

Oh, um, I just
thought it was David. Hi.

Hey, Anna. Can you--
can you come down
to the front of the hotel?

-Now?
-Yeah, I mean, just for a while,
it-- it's our last night.

Our last night, Charlie?

Anna, please.
Um, I'll be in front.

Okay.

[warm music]

-I don't know what to say.
-Well, say you'll
join me for a ride

with Max and Freddie. Freddie's
the one with the blinders.

How can you resist
Freddie, right?

What are we celebrating?

I'm celebrating meeting you.
Care to join me?

That's very sweet, Charlie.

I have the sneaking suspicion
this isn't the first
bottle you've opened tonight.

It isn't. The first bottle
was to get up the nerve
to open this one.

Okay, to meeting me.
And a toast to meeting you.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

So, did you have a good time
today with your friend?

Yeah, yeah.
We, uh, we met at our old
favorite hangout, Cha Cha's.

Oh. I love his espresso
and his mother's tiramisu.

-You know Cha Cha's?
-Yeah. I lived nearby
in MacDougal for a long time.

-I lived on MacDougal
for 20 years.
-That's incredible.

[chuckles] I moved out to
Old Brook for a year ago because
that's where David lives.

But I still-- I still
travel an hour by train

-every morning,
so I can still teach at--
-Bedford Street Schoolhouse.

-How did you know that?
-I just knew.

I mean, I used to walk
by that place every day
on the way to the precinct.

That's so strange, Charlie.
I mean...

...we must have walked
by each other 1,000 times.

No.

I never walked by you.

I would have stopped.

What?

I would have stopped.

I would never
have kept on walking.

[suspenseful music]

[warm music]

When does Claire get back?

Um, tomorrow night around seven.

-How about David?
-I don't know. He's probably
left a message at the hotel.

We should probably go back.

Yeah.

Back to the Plaza please.

-Claire...
-Surprised?

Yeah. Very.

I closed the deal
and caught an earlier flight.

I missed you.

I am sorry, darling, for leaving
you here with everything.

What's wrong?

Nothing. Nothing.
I just-- I had--
I had a really long day,

a lot of-- a lot of flowers
and a lot of bands.

A lot of decisions to make.

Well, I'm here now and we'll
make the rest together.

Make love to me?

What?

Make love to me.

-Oh, I'm sorry, darling.
Did I wake you?
-No.

-Where are you going?
-I got a call from Peter.

-Oh, I didn't hear
the phone ring.
-It vibrates, silly.

I had it under my pillow.
He wants me to jump
on the Rogers contract.

So I figured since
I'm already in the city
I'd look them over with him.

You know, Peter, he's such
a stickler for details.

Wait... I thought he wasn't
expecting you in until tonight.

I left a voicemail for him
when I got in last night.

Okay. I'm off.

I will see you home by six,
I promise.

[Claire chuckles]

[kisses]

What, Charlie? What is it?

Ever think about
when I was a cop and you
were writing ads for Macy's?

-[chuckles] God, Macy's.
-We'd order pizza
and sit on the floor

and watch TV
and we'd stay up all night.

Figure out ways to advertise
toasters and pillows.

I haven't thought about
those days in a long time.

It's those days
that got us to this day, Claire.

What's this all about, Charlie?

I guess I just miss
those times a little.

Well, I don't.
I was making 25,000 a year,
working 70 hours a week.

I'm talking about the pizza
and the TV.

Well, I'll tell you what,
this weekend I earned more money

than I did all year at Macy's.

So, when we get home tonight,
I'll have Mercedes

make us some Salvadorian pizza.

I like just plain John's pizza.

Well, they don't have
John's in the Hamptons.

I gotta go, Charlie.

[gentle acoustic guitar music]

* Did you know
the world is lovely *

* Thoughts of you inside *

* La-like *

* When I think of you *

* The world turns in to cue *

* Visions of me and you *

* Whoa *

* Well, the truth
is that I'm scared *

* Oh, the words
start coming back *

* What if you're the one? *

* Yeah *

Hey, you know,
you two look good together.

-She's getting married.
-When?

-Nine months.
-Hmm. You still have time.

There's a catch,
I'm getting married too.

Yeah, I thought Doris being
a catholic was a problem.

-Doris?
-Yeah, Doris is my wife.
26 years.

So, so, it worked out,
it was meant to be?

Mm. You gotta make it
meant to be.

-What do you mean?
-Anyone worth
spending your life with

is worth fighting for.

You feel something
for the tub lady, Charlie?

Yeah, Mel, I do.

Have you told her?

I tried. I think she thinks
I'm some kind of a heel.

I mean, what kind of person
would tell her, "I love you"

on the weekend
she's planning her wedding.

Did you ever watch
The Jerry Springer Show?

[chuckles] Last night
I almost became his next guest.

Look, Charlie.
You can take a chance
that she'll think you're a heel.

Or you could spend
the rest of your life
wondering about her.

I love, Claire.

But I'm in love with Anna.

-I'm not making any sense.
-Charlie...

...pull up a chair, sit down.

I was a sailor
on a three day leave in Hawaii.

I walked into this pub and I met
the most beautiful woman

in the world. She was a naval
nurse on a three day pass.

And we spent
the next two days together,
and all we did was laugh.

When it was time to leave...

...my heart was so broken.

I couldn't even get
the strength to pack my things.

So I just left everything
right there in the hotel

and went back to my ship.

And I stood on that deck...

...and I realized
that I just couldn't

live my life without her.

You-- you and Doris
have been together ever since?

No. Her name was Cara.

My ship sailed out
for another six months
and I stood on that deck.

You know, I watched that
island get smaller and smaller.

I tried tracking her down
but I could never find her.

I love my wife.

But a day doesn't go by
that I don't wonder about Cara.

[melancholic music]

* These bones we claim *

* Strange to think
they're holding us up *

* Underneath the skin *

* Electric face *

* Marrow making
life inside the darkness *

* Of our lands *

* Standing upright *

* Some small town girl *

* Knows in her heart *

* That this is *

* Heaven *

* And ooh, there he is *

* Back here *

* Oh *

* Love *

Don't you know it's not safe to
close your eyes in Central Park?

-Charlie. [chuckles]
-I'm sorry. I didn't mean
to startle you.

Closing my eyes probably
wasn't the smartest idea.

Have a seat.

[chuckles] The bellhop
at the hotel told me if I...

...I came to the fountain
with a glass of wine
and closed my eyes,

I'd feel as if I were in Europe.
So I thought I'd give it a shot.

Did it work?

I don't know.
I was halfway over the ocean
once you showed up. [chuckles]

-Maybe I should go.
-No, no.

Maybe we can try it together.

That is if you're game enough
to close your eyes.

I'm willing to live
on the edge a little.

I don't have another glass,
but you can drink
from the bottle.

-Just my style.
-I thought so. [chuckles]

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

[both laughing]

[both laughing]

[romantic accordion music]

-[Charlie] Have you landed yet?
-[Anna] Yeah, it's beautiful.

-Where are you?
-Rome... Spanish steps.

-Where are you?
-Paris, Eiffel Tower.

City lights below are amazing.
You should see it.

I've always wanted
to go to Paris.

Then come with me.

What?

Come with me.

With your eyes still closed.
Come with me.

I'm here.

How does it look to you?

I'm scared.

I've never been up
this high before.

I have you.

I won't let you fall.

I can't, Charlie.

Yeah.

There have been
moments in my life...
I wish I could have done over.

When I saw you sitting here...
I decided that

this was not going
to be one of them.

So, no matter what happens...

-...at least I know
I told you how I feel.
-Charlie...

...can you imagine what our
lives would be like together?

I would always be
the woman you left Claire for.

And you'd always be
the man I left David for.

Either way, happy or sad.

I'd wonder about them.

Anna, do you believe
there's only one person

we're meant
to spend our lives with?

Yeah.

Then how can you be
in love with two people?

I don't think I am.

* Have you ever
loved somebody so much *

* It makes you cry? *

* Have you ever
needed something so bad *

* You can't sleep at night? *

* Have you ever tried
to find the words *

* But words
do get you in your heart? *

* But you don't know
what to say *

* And you don't know
where to start *

* Have you ever loved somebody
so much it makes you cry? *

* Have you ever
needed something *

* So bad
you can't sleep at night? *

* Have you ever tried
to find the words *

* But they don't
come out right? *

* Have you ever? *

* Have you ever? *

* Oh *

Hello, everybody.
My name is Henry.

I'm an alcoholic.

Hi, Henry.

It's not my first time
at the rodeo, but today,
by the grace of God...

...I've got 30 days.

[all clapping]

* Only to find that one *

Hi, I don't know
if you remember me,

I was in here a few months ago
with a guy named Henry Taylor.

-Yeah. Yeah.
-Yeah. We were having drinks.

-Have you seen him?
-No, I haven't seen Henry
in a while.

-You haven't seen him.
-No.

-Okay.
-Sorry.

* Have you ever
loved somebody so much *

* It makes you cry? *

* Have you ever
needed something so bad
you can't sleep at night? *

* Have you ever
tried to find the words *

* But they don't
come out right?*

* Have you ever? *

* No *

* Have you ever? *

* Have you ever loved somebody
so much it makes you cry? *

* Have you ever
needed something so bad
you can't sleep at night? *

* Have you ever tried
to find the words
but they don't come out right? *

* Have you ever? *

* Have you ever? *

* Have you ever? *

[music fades]

How you doing, Mindy?

[softly cries]

Hi.

What you reading?

Oh, Anna.
It's the sweetest story.

I started reading it last night.

I just can't put it down.

What's it about?

It's about this guy...

...he meets this woman...

...and he falls so
in love with her.

That's not exactly
a groundbreaker, Mindy.

Yeah but they meet
on the weekend they're both
planning their weddings.

What did you say?

They fall in love
during the weekend

they're both registering
for their weddings.

What happens at the end?

I don't know.
I'm dying to find out.

Only six pages left.
Hey, Anna, what are you doing?

Though it was only a weekend.
It might as well
have been a lifetime.

What are you, crazy? I just read
200 pages. You're killing me.

What I gained from knowing her
was believing in myself again

and realizing that in fact...
there was only one person

I was meant to spend my life
with and that was... Anna.

[gentle music]

Anna.

Is it you?

[chuckles]

-You gotta cover my last class.
-You know,
what you did was cruel.

-I know, but I'm gonna
make it up to you. I promise.
-Okay.

-Go!
-Thank you.

Hey, you took my book!

This color
is so much better than mine.

Hey!

School out early today?

[warm music]

He never married her.

-Who?
-Charlie.

He never married Claire.

How do you know?

He wrote the book.

-He wrote about
the whole weekend.
-Yes.

-What do I do?
-What do you want to do?

-I want to find him.
-Wait, I'm gonna go with you.

Let me get my coat.

Mrs. Goldberg. Mrs. Goldberg.

Listen, I've gotta go,
Chico's gonna rinse you out

when the buzzer goes off. Okay?

-Yeah.
-Hi.

-Oh.
-Oh!

-Mrs. Goldberg.
-Mrs. Goldberg?

You know what?
She's gonna be all right.
Leave her. We gotta go!

Hi, I'm looking
for a police officer.

Well, this is where
you'd find one.

Uh, I mean he used to be
a police officer. We lost touch.

And I'm sort of looking for him.
His name is Charlie Hudson.

Detective Hudson is on a call.
If you want to leave him a note,
I'll be happy to put it

in his mailbox for you.

You mean he's back
working here again?

Yeah, that's why
he gets a mailbox.

Captain, where's he on call?

That would be sergeant.

Really? You look
more like a captain.

[laughs] Really?

He, uh...

-...he took a jumper.
-A jumper, where?

Broom... Sixth.

Sixth, Broom.

Thank you very much.
Okay, come on.

[police sirens]

[dramatic music]

[officer]
Keep moving, people. Back!

Okay, boys, relax.
Batman and Robin are here.

-About time, guys.
-Yeah, if the Subways
were safer,

-we would have got here sooner,
but we drove.
-Come on.

-What do we got?
-Got a young girl.

Her parents are split up
and she's scared.

[crowd murmuring]

-Excuse us.
-Excuse us.

You bring her in, Charlie.

[helicopter whirring]

[indistinct chatter]

-[police siren]
-[officer] Give me a break, huh?

[crying]

[light dramatic music]

-Oh my God, that's him.
-Where?

That's Charlie right there.
He's right next
to the little girl.

Yeah, I'm Detective Hudson.

My friends call me Charlie.

Well, we can stay
up here all day together.

I'm okay with that.

You ever wonder
what makes a rainbow?

[crying]

Probably has something
to do with the moon.

It must be a mile wide.

It's reflection from the sun.

It is?

Mm-hmm.

You learn that in school?

I bet you have
a lot of friends in school.

I bet you're somebody's
best friend.

Yeah.

You want to sleep over
at her house tonight?

It's okay.

Okay. It's gonna be okay.
Just take my hand.

Okay? Just take my hand.

-Oh my God.
-It's okay, Anna.
It's going to be fine.

I just want to take you inside
where you'll be safe.

Will you let me take you inside?

Mm-hmm.

[Charlie]
Give me your hand.

-Oh God.
-I got you.

-[all gasping]
-Oh my God.

[suspenseful music]

[Henry]
Come on. Come on!

Bring her in.

That's it.

[crowd cheering]

[uplifting music]

[Charlie]
I got her. I got her.

-It's okay.
-Thank you.

It's okay.

-Welcome back, Hudson.
-Go with him, sweetheart.

Okay.

You got to let us through.
Detective Hudson's
a friend of ours.

-Please.
He-- he would let us through.
-Will you let us through?

-Come on.
-Thank you. Thank you.

I'm gonna get you
two donuts for this one.

Come here.

[applause]

[man]
Good job.

Well, what do you know?

Yeah. This is Taylor.
I got a young female.
97 H to ST. Vincent's.

[police radio chatter]

-10-4.
-[police radio chatter]

Tracey...

-Uh, how you been?
-Suicidal for a day,

you know, then fine.

-I don't know what to say.
-How about I'm going to do
the right thing

-and take cyanide.
-No, no, no, it's not like that.

-I really had a great time
that night, I just--
-Caught a bad case of schmuck

-and you forgot my number?
-No, I know your phone number.

-I looked at it 1,000 times.
I just got scared.
-Bullshit.

You know,
I'm ashamed to even say this.

But I went back to that bar
where we met to look for you.

You said you drank there every
night. Was that bullshit too?

No. I don't go there anymore.

-I'm sober.
-Yeah, I...

...I did hear
they got robbed a few weeks ago.

I just wanted to get
myself straightened out.

Before I gave you...

[sighs]

You know, I picked up the phone
100 times to explain.

I just...

I wanted to say
something romantic.

Yeah? Well, here I am.
So give it your best shot.

-What, here, now?
-Yeah, now.

-Romantic?
-Romantic. Let's go.

[romantic music]

Um, in the deep of night...

...a star began to light...

...my darkened world.

That star...

...that star I know was you.

That's nice, Henry.

That's real nice.

When it doesn't rhyme
it means more.

Yeah?

-Okay. Get up.
-What?

Up, up. Get up.

[clears throat]

-So, why are you
so out of breath?
-Chasing after you.

[laughs]

I gotta get you into shape.

What do you do chasing
after all those criminals?

Don't chase after them.

I shoot them.

[mimics gunfire]

["At Last" by Etta James]

[applause]

You're the best. We missed you.

* At last *

* My love has come along *

* My lonely days are over *

* And life is like a song *

* Oh, yeah, yeah *

* At last *

* The skies above are blue *

My heart was wrapped up
in clover *

The night I looked at you *

* And I found a dream *

* That I could speak to *

A dream that I *

* Can call my own *

* I found a thrill *

* To press my cheek to *

* A thrill
that I have never known *

* Oh, yeah, yeah *

* And you smile *

* You smile *

* Oh, and then
the spell was cast *

* And here we are in heaven *

* For you are mine *

* At last *
