(Dove coos)

(Birds chirping,
dog barking in distance)

-(Cooing, wings flapping)
-Thats odd.

Huh.

White rock dove,
laurelhurst park, 7:30 A.M.

Man (over earphones):
Your strength flows

from your self-confidence;
You can do anything.

My strength flows
from my self-confidence.

I can do anything.

(Phone rings)

-Yeah.
-Man (over phone): Dennis.

-Whats up?
-What are you doing?

-Oh, hi, im jogging.
-Jogging?

-Yeah, three miles a day.
-(Bird chirping)

(Man speaking indistinctly
over phone)

Western meadowlark?

Huh?

No, nothing, nothing.

Yeah, so whats the story?

Uh-huh.

No, no, no.

Okay.

Monica:
So, what do you think?

Well, it could be
a western meadowlark,

but it would be unusual
for the area.

The bird is not
your assignment, Gloria.

He

is.

What have you observed
about Dennis?

Oh. Well, he likes birds.

And he jogs three miles a day.

And what else?

He listens
to self-improvement tapes.

Yes, so what does that tell you?

That he wants to... improve.

Yes.

Dennis loggins has spent

a long time trying
to make changes in his life.

Well, good for him.

Not necessarily.

Hey, Mr. Watson.

You got anything for me today?

Oh, I might have a thing or two.
All right.

Ah, great.

-Thanks. Ill see you tomorrow.
-You have a good one.

(Engine starts)

♪

Somethings changed.
What happened?

Hes just been invited to his
ten-year high school reunion.

Oh, that sounds like fun.

Seeing old friends,
reconnecting with your past.

If I had a past,
ID like to reconnect with it.

He wont be going for fun.

He wont?

No.

Hes going for revenge.

Man (over earphones):
Youre the best that you can be.

Youre unstoppable.

Dennis:
I am unstoppable!

(Dove coos)

Oh! Geez!

-Oh, dear! Im so sorry.
-Uh, its...

Forget it. I wasnt looking
where I was going either.

Hydrogen peroxide will get
that stain right out.

Oh, uh, darn the luck, I left
the peroxide in my other pants.

-That was a joke. -(Laughing):
Oh, yes, of course it was.

Uh, there are other methods
for removing coffee stains.

Any mild, non-alkaline,
non-bleaching detergent,

or e-even common
household vinegar will do.

Right. Its the...

Both:
Oxygenation process.

Monica:
Her very first assignment

all by herself, solo...

Alone.

Im sure shell do fine, really.

Are you telling or asking?

Im praying, actually.

And blotting.
Blottings very good, too.

Very important.

Right.

Well, uh, I got
to get to work now.

Yeah, me, too.

Or at least I hope I do.

I have an interview
this morning.

-Oh, well, good luck.
-Thank you.

And I am so sorry
about your shirt.

-Uh, dont worry about it.
-Okay.

(Monica sighs)

(Phone ringing)

According to Kenny, theres been
a-a rusty blackbird showing up

pretty regularly
over at carsons farm.

Kind of early, though, Dennis.

Like sunrise early.

Oops.

Wrong room.

O-Or maybe youre
in the right room,

but you just joined
the wrong club.

What club is this?

Ornithological society.

Uh, bird-watching.

Oh, I didnt know we had
a bird-watching club.

Oh, yeah, but as you can see,

were very selective
with our membership.

We are?

You, however, have met
all the criteria for joining.

What criteria is that?

Youre here.

(Laughs)

Well, maybe ill stop by
again sometime,

but right now im supposed to be

at a homecoming
committee meeting.

Oh, uh, Mr. Tanners
biology classroom.

Thank you.

Dennis, right?

Right.

See you.

Kenny:
Wow.

Melissa dunnigan knows
your name.

(Chuckles)

(Computer beeps, Dennis groans)

Tess:
Is there a problem, Mr. Loggins?

Oh, sorry.

Im just trying to figure out
a way to access

these football stats faster

with this new program
im designing.

That is ambitious.

Yeah. Itll be my legacy

to whoever takes over the
play-by-play after I graduate.

Oh, I see.

I just know theres a better way
to do this, though.

Oh, youll work it out, baby.

Youll work it out.

Melissa:
Hey, Dennis?

Can I ask you a question?

You know a lot
about birds, right?

Uh, yeah, sure.

What do you want to know?

Well, I have to do this project

on mating rituals
in the animal kingdom.

Any ideas?

Um...

Well, you cant beat
the display ritual

of the black-crowned
night heron.

Um, the males do this thing
called the song and dance.

Its kind of like this...

(Clicking, hissing)

(Chuckles)

What are you doing, dork?

-Aah!
-Knock it off, Ricky.

(Laughter)

What? I thought the kid was
having a seizure or something.

Very funny, Ricky.

No, whats funny is you hitting
on my girl, man.

She just had a science question
about birds.

Melissa:
Would you leave him alone?

Im just messing with him.

What, you think im worried
about a little four-eyed geek

with secondhand clothes, huh?

Come on. You dont want
to hang out with this loser.

Why do you have to be so mean?

Ricky: Im just protecting
your rep, baby.

Come on, we got a homecoming
meeting in ten minutes.

Thanks, Dennis.

Ill see you.

Hey, watch this.

(Imitating bird call):
G-g-g-geek, g-g-geek.

(Laughter)

Its the mating ritual

of the pencil-headed geek bird.

Thatll be enough
out of you, Mr. Jessup.

Out.

(Whistle blows)

Dennis:

We

d like to thank

the copper hills grizzlies

ma

rching band

for the halftime entertainment,

and it looks like
the cheerleaders

are ready to take US
into the second half,

so lets hear some
Jaguar spirit out there.

(Chanting):
Jaguars! Jaguars!

Dennis: Jaguars lead
the grizzlies 21 to nine,

thanks to Emory Taylors
82-yard punt return

and quarterback Ricky Jessups
two touchdown passes.

Oh, by the way, tonight Ricky
set a new league record

for completed passes
in a single season.

Way to go, guys.

-(Knock at door)
-Hey, loggins.

What are you doing up here?

Coach wanted me to come tell you

that Dantes gonna
be wearing 27.

He, uh, ripped his Jersey.

You came all the way up here
just to tell me that?

Yeah, actually, I volunteered.

I kind of wanted to talk to you
about something else, too. Um...

You know, today
in the library...

I just kind of...
I-I got out of hand, you know?

Uh-huh.

I didnt mean anything by it.

Well, thats okay.

Hey, congratulations
on the new record.

Oh, yeah. Thanks, thanks.

You know, its kind of tough
to celebrate right now, though.

What do you mean?

Well, things arent so great
between me and Melissa.

Oh, really?

Well, th-thats too bad.

Yeah, and, you know,
I know how much you like her

and she kind of likes you, too,

so I guess I just got
a little bit crazy.

And, hey, if you repeat
this to anybody,

I will kick your butt
from here to mount hood.

What do you want?

I need your help, man.

Look, I love Melissa

and I just dont know
what to say to her.

(Conversing indistinctly)

Well, so... what do you
need me for?

Youre, like, smart and good
with words and stuff, you know?

I just figured maybe youd give
me a little bit of something

to get me going,
to get her back.

Please, man, I mean...

Just tell me what
I got to say to her.

Cheerleaders:
Stand up and shout!

Hey, hey, hey!

Stand up and shout!
Hey, hey, hey!

Dennis: Well, just...
Just say what you feel.

You are the light of my world.

When you look at me...

Your eyes see right
into my soul.

One glance from you and im
transported to unspeakable joy.

(People laughing)

Melissa dunnigan...

I love you.

(Laughter continues)

I love you.

(Applause)

(Whistle blowing)

(Band plays rousing song)

Oh, loggins,
you just make it so easy, man.

(Laughs)

Cheerleaders:
Stand up and shout!

Hey, hey, hey!

Stand up and shout!

Hey, hey, hey!

(Intercom buzzes)

Woman: Mr. Loggins, your dinner
with Bill Gates

has been moved to 7:30,
and your 10:15 has arrived.

-Show them in.
-Right away, sir.

Whos the loser now, Ricky?

Hi.

What are you doing here?

Im the one youre waiting for.

I guess its too late
to make a good first impression,

but you can
hardly see that stain.

Yeah, blotting was the key.

So, uh, why dont you tell me
about yourself, Gloria?

Oh, okay.
I type 134 words a minute

on a standard typewriter,

200 on a computer.

Im proficient

in all word processing
and finance software programs.

Ive used
your loggins search engine,

which I find
to be very practical,

uh, though not as efficient
as it could be.

You dont like my search engine?

Oh, no, I find it very useful,
but it occurred to me

that you could increase
its efficiency considerably

by narrowing the parameters
of the subroutines

to require
more specific correlations

with the subject matter.

(Chuckles)

All right, Gloria,
ill give you a tryout.

Im starting a, uh,
special project,

and I need somebody
to do the footwork.

Oh, i-im not
a very good dancer.

What? Whatd I say?

Youre gonna fit right in
around here.

Now, I want you to find out

whos setting up this reunion
and arrange a meeting.

Oh, and I want you to find
a football player for me.

-A football player?
-Yeah.

Pro quarterback
named Ricky Jessup.

Started out in Seattle
a few years ago.

Find out who hes
playing for these days.

Okay.

I got the job!

I knew you could do it, Gloria.

And, look,
I got my first assignment.

Well, you better get busy.

(Giggling):
Okay.

(Door opens)

Ive contacted
your event coordinator

for the class reunion,
and you have

an appointment
with her tomorrow morning.

Good.

Her name is Monica,

and heres all the information

that I have
on Ricky Jessup so far.

But I do have a question.

Whats that?

Well, im just a little curious.

Didnt you make
your first million dollars

designing a program that

tracked statistics
on football players?

Yeah. So?

So, then, why dont you already
know everything

about Ricky Jessup?

Well, I never really cared
about football.

Oh, look at that.
Her names Melissa.

-So? -Melissas
your computer password.

I never gave you
my computer password.

Well, its right there.

Isnt that code for Melissa?
You applied

a basic replacement pattern
substituting letters for numbers

and values for letters
above "k"?

Uh, yeah.

Melissa must be very special
to you.

Why do you say that?

Well, something happens

to your face every time
I say that name Melissa.

(Chuckles)

(Giggles)
See?

I dont know much about love,
but something tells me...

Melissa was just about
the only person

in high school
who was nice to me.

Dennis?

I, I got to lock
this equipment up.

I think what you said was
really sweet.

Im an idiot.

No, youre not.

Its always nice
to know that somebody likes you.

Youre so smart and youre
so talented, Dennis.

Youre gonna be
totally successful someday.

You just cant let Ricky

or anybody else stand
in your way.

Okay?

Okay.

Good night.

Gloria:
Where is she now?

I dont know.

I havent seen her
in a long time.

Melissa?

Dennis!

This is so great!

(Both chuckle)

How-how have you been?

Good. Very good.

Just graduated from u of o and
got my bachelors in poli-sci.

Of course, I dont know
what im gonna do with it.

Well, run for governor.
Ill vote for you.

(Laughs)
Well, maybe I will.

What are you up to?

Last I heard, you were heading
the deans list at mit.

Uh, working towards my masters
in computer information systems.

Oh, naturally.

I dont know what im gonna do
with it either,

but its interesting.

Boy, you...

You really look great.

Thanks. You, too.

So, uh, you ever hear anything
from Ricky?

Hey, hey, ID recognize
that dorky voice anywhere.

Look at you, man.
You look exactly the same.

-Hey.
-Did you tell him the good news?

No.

You probably heard I got drafted
by Seattle.

Signed a monster contract
last week, man.

I mean... its right-- its
all going on, man, its huge.

Oh, well, congratulations,

but I, I really dont follow
football anymore.

Yeah, you mean you dont follow
the cheerleaders anymore, huh?

Melissa:
Ricky, dont start.

Ricky:
Oh, come on, the kid used

to trip over his tongue
every time you walked by.

Didnt you, loggins?

Did you tell him
the other good news?

Were getting married
on September 30.

Oh.

Well, thats, thats great.

Really, I, uh, I hope,
I hope youre happy.

Thank you.

Boy:
Hey, mister,

are you Ricky Jessup?

Yep, thats me.

Never met
a first-round draft pick before.

Can I have your autograph?

Ricky:
Of course you can, kid.

Loggins, give me that pen.

Here you go.

All right, now go long, man.

(Chuckles)

Come on, baby. Lets go.

Anyway, I-I-I got to go, so...

Have a nice life.

Well see you, Dennis.

Theres always reunions, right?

Yeah, I-I guess.

Bye.

Gloria:
So they got married?

Yeah, and Ricky got traded
a couple of times,

then I lost track of him.

Why didnt you just look him up?

I already knew
what I needed to know,

but now theres this reunion,

and a lot of things have changed
since high school.

So, whatd you find out
about Ricky?

Oh, well, I searched all
the sports sites I could find

and I downloaded
all of his stats and interviews.

Its all here chronologically,
beginning with when he started

with Seattle,
then he moved to Pittsburgh,

where he broke his shoulder,
and then...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Gloria,
just tell me where he is now.

Oh. Hes playing for
the Los Angeles condors.

In fact, theres
a nice article in here

about how they expect him to
turn the team around this year.

Hmm, the condors.

Well, thats all
I needed to know.

Hmm.

Dennis:

We

ll, heres the deal, Monica.

Dennis:

We

ll, heres the deal, Monica.

I think we need to change
some things about the reunion,

do a little upgrading.

Oh, well, I was given a very
specific budget to work with.

Right. Well, the budget just got
a lot less specific.

Now, heres what I want:

Instead of the elks lodge
in gershwin,

I want you to rent
the Chadwick country club,

and not just the dining room;
I want the whole club.

If its already booked,

let me know
and ill get it unbooked.

Oh, and tell the chef none
of that chicken and potatoes.

We want steak, lobster,
and champagne.

But the invitations have already
been sent out.

Well, you have a list of
everyone thats coming, right?

Yes.

Okay, well,
then give me the list

and ill have my assistant,
Gloria,

send out a memo
with the changes.

Look, Monica, you only have

a ten-year class reunion once,
right?

And I want this
to be... very special.

Now, here. This...

Should get you started.

Look, Jeffrey, $386 million is
chump change and you know it.

Just do it.
Were running out of time.

(Over phone):
Im doing my best, but...

You have that graph I need?

Yes. I reconfigured the search
database to include travel

for wives at away games
and assigned ticket usage

for family members, and then
I converted that into this.

Huh. Melissa slowly
stopped going

to Rickys games over
the last couple of seasons.

Now she doesnt go at all.

And you know what that means.

Not really.

If shes not going
to his games anymore,

that means their marriage
is falling apart.

Look, I know, I... thank you.

I know, Marty,
its just, im here

at my ten-year
high school reunion.

-(Over phone): Right now?
-Yeah, right now.

Look, itd just be like making
everything come full circle

if we can get him
to make it official tonight.

Marty: All right,
ill see what I can do.

All right, great,
so youll give me

a call a little later?

-You betcha.
-All right, cool, thanks, man.

Look, Jeffrey,
I need this done now,

so throw in another million,
whatever it takes.

They dont want to sell,
so theyre asking for the moon,

so surprise them
and give them what they want.

Jeffrey: The club is only worth
$390 mil tops.

Well, its worth it to me,

so do it, and call me
when its done.

-Jeffrey: All right.
-(Phone beeps)

(Indistinct chatter,
rock music plays nearby)

Remember, this isnt a date.

Oh, of course not.

Im simply accompanying you so
people wont get the impression

that youre alone,
even though you are.

I wont be after tonight.

Not if everything goes
according to plan.

Hello, Ricky.

Remember me?

Im Tess.

I was only here for part
of a semester,

but I remember you.

(Laughs)

Hey, Ricky.

-You made it.
-Hey, yeah.

How you doing, kev?
Good to see you, man.

Good, man-- uh, a bunch
of the guys are inside.

Weve been waiting for you.

Cool, well, give me a minute.

-Ill be right in.
-All right.

Okay.

Is your wife coming?

Um, yeah, im not sure actually.

She, um, shes thinking

about it, so... so, thank you.

(Phone rings)

Tell me something good.

(Over phone):
All right, heres the deal.

Hi.

Gloria, you look beautiful.

Thank you-- you dont think its
too low-cut, though, do you?

Uh, baby, maybe
you got it on backwards.

Or not, or not.

So hows it going with Dennis?

You know, im not sure,
and did you know

Andrew was right outside?

Andrew?

Yes, and he didnt look
very happy.

Oh, dear.

Whats Dennis planning?

I think he wants to harm Ricky.

You dont think he would want
to kill him, do you?

Dennis:
Monica.

What time are
they, uh, scheduled

to announce the king and queen
of the reunion?

9:30.

-Okay, make the call at 9:29.
-(Over phone): You got it.

Monica.

Youve done a great job--
everythings perfect.

Just perfect.

Dennis loggins.

Kenny, Kenny adler.

I knew it was you, although I
never would have recognized you

if I hadnt seen your picture
in

Forbes

magazine

a few months ago--
very impressive.

Youre not fortune 500-- youre,
youre like fortune five.

Seven.

(Laughs)

(Quietly):
Gloria, go.

Oh, yes, okay.

There he is.

Y-You know, I heard
there was a replica

of the Portland skyline
made entirely of cheese

over at the hors doeuvre table.

Oh, yes, look, over here.

Well, feel free to check it out.

But dont you want to see it?

Its cheese shaped
like buildings.

You may never have
an opportunity like that again.

Tonights all
about opportunity, Gloria.

Mines standing
right over there.

So im literally supposed to get
that call, like, any minute.

Well, you shouldve been
the starter a long time ago.

Yeah, well, you know
what they say.

Those that can, do.

-Those that cant, coach.
-(Men laugh)

Look at him-- puffing
himself up like hes

still the cock of the walk.

Gloria:
Well, is he puffing

or preening? Because, you know,
those are two separate things.

It doesnt matter.

The more he stands there
self-aggrandizing,

the more im going
to enjoy this.

But, uh, wheres Melissa?

Well, maybe because Rickys
here, shes not here.

Oh, of course.

Yeah, why would
they come together

if theyre having trouble
with their marriage?

Ah, it just wont be the same.

It wont?

It would be so much
more humiliating

if she were here to see it.

What would?

I just bought Rickys team,

and at 9:29 tonight,

not only is he going to find out

that hes not starting
on Sunday,

hes also going to find out

he doesnt even have a job.

Where are you going?

To talk to him.

Now?

Yes.

Whats wrong with you?

Nothing.

Its just, uh...

Please dont do this.

(Scoffs)

Dennis:
Hello, Ricky.

Hey.

You dont even know
who I am, do you?

Um... no, no.

Let me refresh your memory.

G-g-g-geek, g-g-g-geek.

Its the pencil-headed
geek bird.

Dennis, Dennis loggins.

You got it.

Wow, man, you look great.

So, what have you been up to?

I heard you made
a ton of money and...

-Yeah.
-Good for you, good for you.

Hello.

-This is Gloria.
-Hi, Gloria.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you, too.

Well, I got to hand it
to you, man.

It looks like they shouldve
voted you most likely

to succeed, not me.
(Laughs)

This guy was always
the smart one.

What a nice thing to say.

Isnt that a nice thing to say?

Gloria, why dont you
go get US some cheese?

Well, im not really
a fan of cheese.

It was just the architecture
I was interested in.

Well, ID like some cheese.

And ID like you
to go get it for me.

Shes a nice girl.

Dennis, im really
glad to see you here.

Well, I got to say, Ricky,

im feeling exceptionally good

about being here tonight, too.

But, uh, wheres Melissa?

Oh, shes, um... you know what?

I-I dont think
shes gonna make it.

Oh, really-- why?

Well, shes, uh...

No, im wrong.

Here she is.

Melissa?

Ricky:
Hey.

What are you doing
out of bed, baby?

Well, I was talking to Andrew.

And I decided
I needed to be here.

Andrew:
And she took all

of her medication and, uh,
her vitals are better,

so we decided
to catch up with you.

Im so glad you did.

And you look beautiful.

Thats Melissa?

Dennis.

Hi.

Look at you-- you look great.

Thanks.

Uh, so do...

-Melissa...
-I know.

You dont have to say anything.

ID give you a hug, but...

Oh, that-that-thats
all right, I...

I-Im so glad to see you, I...

Im just...

Woman:
Melissa. I cant believe it.

We heard you werent coming,
but here you are.

-Were stealing her away.
-Andrew: Okay.

Bye.

Woman: So, you made it?
You wont believe whos here.

So, um...

Where did you get that cheese?

Oh, around the corner.

Show me.

Oh, right.

Ricky:
She is really something.

What does she have?

Its cancer.

It started in her liver,
but it spread.

Oh, man.

Yeah, shes been pretty
incredible, though.

She made it to all my games
right up until last season.

Lifes funny, huh?

Funny?

Yeah, I mean, im finally
gonna get my first start

on Sunday, and you know what?

Shes more excited
about it than I am.

I just cant keep traveling
all over this country.

I need to be with her right now.

So dont tell anybody,
but im quitting football.

What?

Yeah, if everything
pans out on Sunday,

my first game as a starting
quarterback in the NFL,

its gonna be my last.

Its... its enough.

Well, what about your contract?

I dont know.

Ill figure it out.

Dennis, man, im sorry I was

always such a jerk to you.

I was just young
and stupid, you know.

Its like one of those things--
when something happens to you

that you cant change,
you just start thinking about

all the things you couldve
changed and didnt.

The way I treated you
in high school, its, uh...

Its one of those things.

So im sorry.

You know, life just
takes its turns, huh?

I, uh...

I got to get a drink.

Ill be right back.

Gloria, its time.

Now?

Baby, youre going
to do just fine.

Oh, I-I dont know.

Maybe its too soon.

Andrew, maybe you could...

No, Gloria.

This is your assignment.

Youre the one he knows.

And youre the one
that hes gonna listen to.

Whos gonna listen to an angel
with her dress on backwards?

Monica:
Gloria?

Go-- you know
what you have to do.

And guess what.

Dennis knows
what he has to do, too.

He just needs
a little push, okay?

I wish you hadnt said "push."

Are you all right?

No.

Well, thats okay.

Because you know what?

Im an angel.

Oh, that was a little abrupt,
wasnt it?

Really not in the mood
for jokes right now, Gloria.

Oh, good,
because I dont know any.

But I-I do think I can help.

The pool light
is doing some weird things.

Its not the pool light.

Its god.

I really am an angel.

You serious?

Oh, my god.

Now, granted,
im not as experienced as some.

Well, most.
Well, all the angels, actually.

But god chose me to talk to you.

So theres got to be a reason.

Maybe he doesnt think

im worth wasting
an experienced angel on.

(Sighs) Oh, no,
I dont think its that at all.

I think its because
you and I think a lot alike.

What, I-I think like an angel?

(Chuckles):
No.

No, I think like a computer.

Or sort of like a computer;
I analyze things.

And so do you.

You think a plus b
always has to equal c.

You think if you make
a lot of money

and youre successful,
then youll be happy.

And you think
if someones hurt you...

Then you have to get revenge.

But people arent computers.

And relationships
arent equations.

And if someone hurts you,
revenge isnt the solution.

You fell in love with someone
who wasnt meant to be yours.

Thats not true.

Oh, Dennis... it is true.

If Melissa was
meant to be yours,

she wouldve been
in love with you, too.

And I know
it hurts to hear that,

but think of everything
thats happened

because you wouldnt believe it.

You took the wonderful,
positive dreams that you had

and used them to create
a cruel fantasy of revenge,

to force a happy ending

on a story
that was never meant to be.

Well, you have the power
to make it happen now.

Is it making you happy?

Ricky dreamed of being
a football star once.

And now all he can dream of

is to just have his wife
for one more year.

Theyve lost their world.

All their dreams have changed.

And yet, in it all...

Ricky has found his soul.

While youve come so close
to losing yours.

In ten years, who has
truly become a successful man?

(Sobbing):
Oh, my god.

I wasted so much time.

Oh, but god can
redeem time, Dennis.

God created time.

Just as he created you.

He loves you.

And hes given you all
the time that you need right now

to do the right thing.

Will you do it?

I think god knows
what hes doing.

(Sniffles)

Because he sure sent me
the right angel.

(Quiet chatter)

Hey.

Hey.

You know, I always did have
a little crush on you.

Really?

Yeah.

You were so smart and nice.

And strong.

No matter what anybody dished
out, you never even struck back.

I wish I was as...

Good a person
as you seem to think.

You are.

I always knew there was
something special about him.

Would it be a terrible thing...

If I told you that I loved you?

That ive always loved you.

Its a wonderful thing, Dennis.

Its always nice to know
that somebody cares about you.

I seem to remember
you telling me that once before.

Thanks for being you.

Melissa, tomorrow im gonna
make some phone calls.

I-I can get ahold of the-the
best doctors in the business.

Spare no expense.

Thanks, Dennis.

I dont know what difference
itll make now,

but youve made
such a difference already.

(Silverware tapping on glass)

Tess:
Hey, everybody, listen up!

Come on over!

Come on!

Come on in on the dance floor!

Everybody, come.

Come, come, come.

Gather around, gather around.

Listen, do you know
what time it is?

What time is it?

9:29.

Its time to crown

the king and queen
of the reunion!

(Crowd cheering)

(Cell phone ringing)
