Hello.

It's down the steps
And to the right.

Hi, can I help you
With your cabin number?

32.

Oh, I'm sorry.
We don't have a cabin 32.

Oh, no, no, no.

32 is the number
Of letters in the sentence,

"Hi, can I help you
With your cabin number?"

It's a --
It's a little game I play.

I'm lowell mandell.

Oh, of course.

You won this cruise

In the tribune puzzle contest,
Right?

Yeah, that's right.

And I'm a real
Crossword-puzzle nut, you know?

When I die, I want to be buried
Six down, three across.

[laughs]

Man: great.
Thank you.

Oh, excuse me.

Could you help me find
The aloha deck?

Sure, it's right through
Those doors and to the left.

-thank you.
-wait a minute, that voice --

Don't I know that voice
From somewhere?

It's possible.

I usually take it with me
Wherever I go.

I think I got it.
Say, "Is the caller there?"

That's phil donahue.

I'm, "Line 2,
You're on the air."

Dr. Dorothee davis,
The radio psychologist!

Oh, you take away
All the joy of discovery.

I would have gotten it.

Dr. Davis, I was thinking
Of psychology as a career.

Do you have any advice?

I'm not sure
I'm the person to ask

About something
So important.

-hi.
-hello.

Where is he?

Come on.

[chuckles]

Leo: he's so neat.

I'm leo halbert.
How do you do?

And where do we go?

Well, welcome aboard.
I'm captain stubing.

[grunts]

[both laugh]

And this is
Purser smith.

[clears throat]

Pbht!

I guess
He outranks you.

I grew up watching
You two on tv.

Leo and tanny, right?
-right.

And you must be
His wife.

No, tanny's not married.
I'm leo's wife.

Well, I'm sorry.

This is my wife, mary.

Oh, you know something?
I will never forget

That old western routine
You guys used to do.

Tanny, bang!

[groans]

Isn't he supposed to fall down
When I do that?

Hm? Oh, yeah.
But he's no fool.

He knows your finger
Wasn't loaded.

[laughter]

[ship horn honks]

[cheering]

Then, when I found out you
Were gonna be on this cruise,

I knew you could help me.

I'm the chief purser
Around here,

And lately, nobody seems
To be taking me seriously.

Well, maybe it's
Your nickname -- "Gopher."

No, that's not it.
I think it's my childhood.

I had a lot of rejection
As a child.

Whenever I played hide-and-seek,
Nobody would look for me.

Do you think
That's significant, doctor?

It's difficult to say.

I hardly know you.

Well, that's no problem.

What I'll do is I'll put
All the thoughts in my childhood

Down on paper,
And I'll get back to you.

This is great.

This is more feedback
Than I've had in months.

Thank you.

[flatly]
Mm-hmm.

Isaac: ladies and gentlemen,
Lowell is gonna do this

Within 20 seconds,
Blindfolded.

So, are you ready, lowell?

Ready!

Okay, go!

[spectators cheering]

Five seconds.

I find brilliant men
Incredibly attractive.

I think the sexiest part
Of a man's body is his mind.

Isaac: 10 seconds!

15 seconds!

[spectators cheering]

Ta-da!

[cheers and applause]

Now, folks,
You are not gonna believe this.

But lowell has told me
That he can tell

The day of the week
Of any date in history.

That's right.

[spectators murmur]

No, no, okay, all right,
Do we have any volunteers?

How about you?

Yeah, that's right.

Um...What's
Your birthday?

July 2nd, 1960.

July 2nd.

You said july 2nd?
-mm-hmm.

Isn't that something?
That's really amazing.

You know, this wednesday,
Your birthday will be

Only 148 days away.

[laughs]

So, uh, come on,
I'll buy you

A 148-days-
Before-your-birthday lunch.

But the food
On the ship is free.

Oh, well, in that case,
Order whatever you want.

Ooh, hi, isaac.

Hi, dr. Davis.
What can I get you?

-how about a margarita?
-a margarita, coming right up.

You know, dr. Davis,
In a way, you and I are

In the same business.

Oh?
How's that?

Well, people are always telling
Their troubles to a bartender,

Except my clientele does not get
Your professional expertise.

Hm, well, my professional
Expertise is highly overrated.

Besides, your clients get
Something mine don't.

What's that?

Fruit on a toothpick.

Hey, dr. Davis.
Isaac, how you doing?

-hello.
-fine.

Listen, I've got kind of
A sticky problem.

I could use a little
Professional advice.

Well, fine.
Isaac's free.

[laughs] No, I wanted
To talk to you.

I know it's kind of
An imposition,

But it's really,
Very important to me.

Okay, shoot.

Yeah.

Well, I've got
This friend named elaine

Who I broke up with
A couple months ago.

Now, I just learned that she's
Planning on marrying this guy

Who I know is
A real womanizer.

Now, should I warn elaine,
Or should I just stay out of it?

I think you owe it to elaine
To level with her.

Maybe you can prevent
An unhappy marriage.

I think you're right.

I still have
An obligation to her.

I mean, she's still
My friend, right?

-mm-hmm.
-okay, I'll send her a cable

Right away and let her know
What a big mistake she's making.

Thanks a million.
-[chuckles]

Boy, you really know
Your stuff.

I would have told him
The exact opposite.

What do you mean?

Well, fool that I am,
I would have told him

To stay out of it.

He'd already broken up
With her,

So it was really
None of his business.

But that's
Why you get the big bucks.

All right, red.

This here deck ain't big enough
For the both of us.

Go ahead, red.
Show him how tough you are.

Leo.

This here six iron
Is loaded.

You're gonna eat
My dust.

Bang!

Hey, he's
A real character isn't he?

[laughs]
Uh, mary, listen,

Why don't you take a picture
Of gopher, tanny, and me, huh?

Yes, all right.

Oh, leo, this will be
One for my grandchildren.

Of course, I have to have
The children first.

-smile, everybody.
-okay.

Shoot.

[camera shutter snaps]

[groans]

Leo, I've got
A great idea.

Why don't you and tanny
Do your show tonight?

Uh, that --
That sounds like fun.

Oh, that's terrific.
I'll make the arrangements.

Okay.

Leo, let him rest.
He's had a long day.

It's okay.
He's fine.

He's not fine.

He hasn't been fine
For a long time.

[sighs]

Lowell: so, anyhow, once,
In college,

I finished
This english exam early.

So I was getting
A little bored.

And, uh, to kill time,
I started counting

The number of letters
In words and sentences.

And it was so much fun that
I've been doing it ever since.

I never once in my life
Finished a test early.

My teachers practically
Had to arm-wrestle me

For my test papers.

[chuckles]

Where'd you go to college?

Uh...Well, you know,
Back east.

Where back east?

[sighs]

Harvard --
I went to harvard.

You went to harvard?

I would have given anything
To go to an ivy league school.

What was it like
At harvard?

36.

36 --

Letters in,
"What was it like at harvard?"

No, of the number
Of letters in,

"How would you like
To have dinner with me tonight?"

I'd love to.

[video game buzzes]

[video game beeping]

[chuckles]

You know, this has been
A great day for me.

Not only do I get
A date with a beautiful woman,

But, uh, I just saved
The universe.

[water rushing]

Come on, tanny.
You're gonna be late for dinner.

[grunting]

Oh, don't forget
To floss.

[grunts]

[laughs]

I can't believe you're thinking
Of doing the act.

He hasn't worked
In over a year.

You saw him
Up on deck today.

Oh, come on, mary.
He missed a couple of cues.

That's all.
-[sighs]

"A couple" of cues?

He messed up
Every bit you tried.

[sighs] Face it, leo --
He's over the hill.

No, he's not
Over the hill.

He'll be fine
Out there.

He's a trouper, mary.

Leo, listen to me.

Let me tell gopher
That he can't do it.

Uh, I'll say that he's,
Uh, seasick or something.

Leo, do you know
How embarrassing this could be?

My roommate in college
Didn't have the courage

To ask his girlfriend
To marry him.

So, I rigged the scoreboard
So that, during half time,

It would read, "Betty,
Will you marry me?"

[laughs]
Did it work?

Oh, yeah.
It worked great.

Uh, four bettys got engaged
That weekend.

How did you learn
To do that?

Well, I had
A professor at m.I.T.

Who was a real
Practical jokester.

M.I.T.?

I thought you said
You went to harvard.

Oh, well, you know, I-I did,
For my bachelor's degree.

But then I --

Then I went on to m.I.T.
For my master's, you know?

You went to harvard
and m.I.T.?

Well, yeah, you know, me
And thousands of other guys.

And I had the best body.
Go figure.

Uh, did you know
That, uh, the density of saturn

Is lighter than water?

You could float that sucker
In a bathtub.

Of course, you'd have to have
A bathtub the size of jupiter.

[chuckles]
Waiter?

[laughter]

[grunts]

Yeah,
He loves the movies,

Especially
"The three stooges."

That's where he gets
His timing.

Pbht!

[laughs]

You know, leo,
All the kids on board

Will be disappointed if they
Don't see you and tanny perform.

Well, I, uh...

-[slurping]
-oh, come on, leo,

Just one show?

Both: please?

I told you all the kids
Would be disappointed.

Well, sure.
Sure, yeah.

We can do
A little show for you.

How about that, partner?

[groans]

[laughter]

He'd love to.
[laughs]

Thank you
For asking me to dinner.

Oh, my pleasure.

It's been a long time
Since I've had an official date.

I suppose, with your schedule,
It is difficult.

It's not that.

It's just that I'm going
Through a divorce.

Oh, I'm sorry.

If you want to talk about it,
I'm a good listener.

Good evening.

Oh, gosh,
Look at that prime rib.

That looks great.

What do you want,
Gopher?

Doctor, I realize
Your time is very precious.

So I've tried
To condense

Some of my thoughts
On my childhood.

Oliver twist didn't have
that much of a childhood.

Ah, good evening.

Well, the prime rib
Looks great.

Why don't we get
A couple of extra forks?

You can eat off our plates.

[laughs] No, thanks.
I can't stay.

Oh, that's too bad.
Good-bye.

[chuckles]

Uh, listen,
I-I just wanted to tell you

That I took your advice,
And I sent a cable

To my friend elaine.

And I told her
That if she married that jerk,

She would be making
The biggest mistake

Of her entire life.

Whew!
What a load off my mind.

Um...Maybe you shouldn't
Have done that, ace.

What?

Well, I-I-it's just
That, sometimes --

I don't know.

Maybe it's better
That people find out

These things for themselves,
Don't you think?

Are you telling me
I should send another cable?

Is that
What you're saying?

Well...

Yes, p-perhaps
You'd better.

I tell you --
Life can be a handful.

Oh, I got this research grant
From stanford.

-but --
-you went to harvard,

M.I.T., and stanford?

[sighs]

That's incredible.

You know, there's a name
For people like you.

"Lowell"?

[sighs]

"Prodigy."

You're a prodigy.

Boy, what I wouldn't do
With your brains.

I'd invent things.

No-run pantyhose --

That would give me
A nobel prize for sure.

[laughs]

You know, you only talk
About your past.

I want to know
What you're doing now.

Oh, you do, do you?

Well, right now,
I'm standing in the moonlight

With the most attractive woman
On this ship.

[both laugh]

Oh, hi, guys. Hey, listen,
We're on our way to the casino.

You want to come?

They don't want
To go to the casino.

-casino?
-yeah.

Listen,
I'm on a losing streak,

And I never quit
When I'm behind.

Gee, I-I don't know.

Well, actually, that sounds
Kind of interesting, brenda.

Come on.

Lead the way.
-right on.

-oh, I like this.
-mm.

A nice, quiet table
Away from all the activity.

And all the people asking
For free advice.

Excuse me.

Would you please put
These two chairs

Where nobody can find them?

-[chuckles]
-thank you.

[sighs] Everybody thinks
I have all the answers.

It's an occupational
Hazard.

I get it all the time.

As soon as people find out
I'm a doctor,

They drag out
All their aches and pains.

Well,
How do you handle it?

I tell them my lawyer won't
Let me say anything

Till after
The malpractice trial.

They usually leave me alone
After that.

Uh-oh.

Doctor, bad news --

I found out that elaine
Received the first cable.

Now what should I do,
Play dumb?

I think
You can handle it.

Did I tell you
I'm an only child?

Do you mind?

Now, should I risk sending
A third cable

To explain the first
Or just stop with the second?

Couldn't that explain
My difficulty sharing?

I don't know.

I can't help you.
I can't help anybody anymore.

I quit my job two weeks ago.
I'm through handing out advice.

Oh, dr. Davis, listen --
I was just looking

Through some catalogs
From ucla.

And I was wondering
What you thought

Of the psychology
Department.

Will everybody just
Please leave me alone?

Was a happy marriage,

That other woman happened to be
My best friend.

Ooh.

About how guilty she was
Over the affair she was having.

You had
No way of knowing.

Anybody
With an ounce of sense

Could have seen
What was going on...

But not dr. Dorothee.

I even talked her
Out of feeling guilty.

So let's face it.

I'm not in the position
To give anybody advice.

They need you in the infirmary
Right away.

Tell them to pack it in ice...
[sighs]

And I'll be there
In a day or two.

Did you hear me?
She broke her ankle.

Yes. You expect me
To leave my deathbed

For a lousy broken ankle?

[grunts]
She's young.

She'll heal.

You can't be serious.
You're a doctor.

How can I take care
Of someone else

When I can't even take care
Of myself?

That is nonsense.

Now, you listen to me,
Adam bricker.

Even if you are sick,
You can't just sit around

And feel sorry
For yourself.

You have a responsibility
To your patients.

You're
Absolutely right.

A doctor must always put
His patients' problems

Ahead of his or her own feelings
Of inadequacy.

Isn't that
What you're saying?

Yes.

Oh. Oh, wait.
Wait a minute.

What --
What about vicki?

Fake call.

[sighs]
Hmm.

I should be so mad
At you.

But I'm too charming,
Right?

You know, there's
A clinical term

For what you just did
To me --

Self-pity
Reduction therapy.

Mm.

we hope you had fun
in puerto vallarta.

you can exchange your pesos
in the purser's lobby.

I feel like
A walking souvenir shop.

I think we went
A little crazy.

Well, that's the educational
Thing about traveling.

It teaches you
To spend money in a hurry.

Yeah, but
On a musical donkey?

[laughs]

[ melodic tune plays]

Well, all right, okay.
I'm an animal lover, all right?

Thanks for the ring.

It's beautiful.

Thanks for spending
The day with me.

First thing, I'm gonna slip
Into a nice, hot shower,

And then into a nice,
Cool pinña colada.

Well,
That works for me.

Meet you in the lounge
In an hour?

-10.
-10?

Letters in,
"I'll be there."

Bye-bye.
-bye.

Go ahead, tanny.
I'll follow you.

Watch yourself, now.

I'll never forget
The first time we saw tanny.

Color television was
Just getting big.

And leo saw
That little red ball of fur.

And he thought
Tanny would be a natural.

It's hard
To believe it's --

It's been
Over 20 years.

It's hard when an end
Of an era comes.

Now, don't worry,
Tanny.

They're gonna take
Good care of you.

A-and when you get there,

A lot of people will come
To see you.

And I'll come to see you.

I promise.

[whines]

I'm gonna miss you,
Partner.

[whimpers]

I'll never forget you.

[whines]

[whimpers, whines]

Boy, a lot of kids are
Gonna miss him.

I guess they're not
The only ones.

good evening, passengers.

we invite you to spend
your last night at sea

dancing in
the international lounge.

[mid-tempo music plays]

You know, leo,
This music reminds me

Of the first time we met.

Feels like we're starting
All over again.

Mm-hmm.

[song ends, applause]

[upbeat music plays]

I love you, leo.

And I think it's wonderful the
Way you're handling all this.

Are you, uh, thinking
What I'm thinking?

Yeah.

I'm thinking tanny's
Already checked in,

Met the other residents,

Getting used to walking
Around without clothes on.

[chuckles]

Oh, I almost forgot.
Here.

Ace printed up
Some shots of tanny.

Here's tanny
At the swimming pool.

Here's tanny in the casino.
[laughs]

Boy, he sure knew
How to play a crowd.

[chuckles]

8 black.

-he's still at it?
-I'm afraid so, sir.

Lowell.

Do you realize
You missed dinner?

Oh, really?

I wound up eating
Alone.

They served buffalo.
You had to shoot it yourself.

Lowell?

Oh, hi.
Uh, sorry.

Have you had dinner yet?

18 red.

[spectators cheer]

Lowell,
I'd like to go dancing.

Are you coming or not?

Not.

You know,
For someone so smart,

You're acting
Awfully stupid.

Listen, brenda,
Get off my case.

I mean,
So what if I'm smart?

You know, I am sick
And tired of doing

What other people expect me
To do.

All I expect from you is
A straight answer.

Every time I ask you what
You're doing with your life,

You change the subject.

All right, all right,
You want to know

What I'm doing with my life?
I'll tell you.

Nothing.

Zip.

What about stanford,
The research program?

Oh...

I dropped out of that
Two years ago.

How do you live?

I take odd jobs.

I play games --
All kinds of games.

Every once in a while,
I win something.

Now, you may not think
Much of it,

But it's my life,
Okay?

So butt out.

You're right, lowell.
I don't think much of it.

Here.

You may need to hawk
This when you gamble
Away all your money.

Well, what do you think
You'll do now?

I'll go back
On the radio

And try to find
A new best friend.

And a new husband?

Are you applying
For the job?

Uh, I'm afraid
I have a lousy track record

In that department.

Well, why don't you start
As a best friend

And work your way up?

I'd like that.

Uh, I hope
I'm not interrupting anything.

No, we were hoping we wouldn't
Be left all alone out here.

Uh, I-I just wanted
To tell you, doctor,

That I received a cable
Back from my friend elaine,

And she's gonna go ahead
With the wedding.

Even after she found out
The man's a cheat?

Well, it turns out
That he's very, very rich.

And frankly,
She's very, very shallow.

Thanks for your help.
-mm-hmm.

Where were we?
-let's see.

Uh, you were kissing
Your best friend,

And I was working
My way up.

Beautiful night.

Oh, yeah.
Yeah.

So, how did you make out
In the casino?

Well, I, uh...

I had a change of luck there
Towards the end,

And came out ahead.

Ah.

All's well
That ends well.

Not really.

Brenda won't talk to me.
I...

I tried twice to go
To her cabin to apologize.

She won't even open
The door.

Well, I guess tonight
Was pretty embarrassing for her.

I can't believe
I yelled like that.

You know, ever since I-I hit
Those gambling tables,

I-I've been a little nuts.
It's --

It's almost as if they had me
Hypnotized or something.

I know what you're
Going through, lowell.

I have a problem
Somewhat like yours.

Really?

Yeah.

I'm a recovering
Alcoholic.

Alcoholic?
Well --

Well, I'm not
An alcoholic.

People who gamble too much
Are just like people

Who drink too much
Or play games too much

Or work too much
Or do anything too much.

They're all compulsive
Behaviors.

Oh, now,
Wait a minute here.

I mean, you think
Because I spent two nights

At a gambling table
I'm a compulsive gambler?

No.

But you could be headed
In that direction.

Lowell, when compulsive people
Get hooked on something,

It's their way
Of escaping pressure.

You've been under pressure
All your life to be number one.

So you escape
Into your games.

Everyone expects
So much of me.

I want to change...

But I'm afraid.
I-I don't know if I can.

Look, you don't have
To do it alone.

There are organizations

Where people
With the same problem

Get together
And help each other.

And it works.

I know.

I don't know.
I-I...

I'm gonna have
To think about this.

Well,
If you're interested,

Drop by my office
Tomorrow morning.

I'll have some names of places
You can call for help.

Thank you, captain.
Y-you're very kind.

Someone was kind
To me once.

All right, mary.
Let's talk about it.

You already got what you want.
Tanny's gone.

He may be gone,

But apparently he's still
Number one in your life.

What are you talking
About?

[sighs]
Oh, leo.

After 20 years,
I'm just tired

Of playing second fiddle
To an orangutan.

"Second fiddle"?

I can't believe
That you'd think like that.

I always thought of us
As a family.

Well, this part
Of the family didn't get

Very much attention.

Well, why didn't you say
Something about this years ago?

Because I knew
What the act meant to you.

And besides,
What was I gonna say?

"Excuse me, leo.
I'm jealous of your monkey"?

Of course,
Tanny meant a lot to me.

But he never meant more to me
Than you do.

But you never said that.

Well...I always thought
You knew.

[sighs]

Now, listen closely,
Mary.

I don't want you
To miss a word.

I love you.

You're the most important thing
In my life.

You always have been.

And I'm not gonna let
A day go by

That you don't know it.

[ melodic tune plays]

Lowell: you were right,
Brenda.

For somebody who's supposed
To be so intelligent, I...

I've been acting
Awfully stupid.

I-I'd like to try and put
My life back together again.

And when I do...

I want you to be
A part of it.

[sighs]

Eight.

Eight?

Letters
In "I'd love to."

[chuckles]

Of course, that's not counting
The apostrophe.

What's the rule
On that?

[chuckles]

Oh, vicki.

And if you do decide
To go into psychology,

Please let me know.

I'd be happy
To recommend some schools.

Oh, thank you,
Dr. Davis.

I'll be listening
To your radio show.

Oh, adam.

How am I ever going
To thank you?

Watch my lips.

Gopher said every time
They stop at puerto vallarta,

He's gonna look in
On tanny.

Well, I don't think
That will be necessary.

Hmm?

Partner!

I called the zoo
Early this morning

And had him flown in.

Yeah, but I-I thought
You said --

Well, it's one thing
To break up an act.

It's something else
To break up a family.

You want to know the truth?
I missed him, too.

Sweetheart,

You've just secured
Your position as number one.

[laughs]

[grunts]

I heard
You were back in town.

Oh, he hated the zoo.

All the good tire swings
Were taken.

Hey, tanny, think fast.

Bang!

[laughter]

[grunts, chatters]
