All right, everyone,

thank you very much. Thank you.

You can help yourself to some coffee if you'd like.

I want that in Billboard, the CVC Report and all the trades

Monday.

Usual copy: "Excited to ink new music-video producers

Martin and Silver for collaboration with our artist."

You know the drill.

Right.

Um, Erik,

you know we didn't actually read the contracts

before we signed them.

Actually, you just signed for two turkeys on wheat

and a chicken salad.

The Legal's got the real contract.

It's long distance, line two.

Uh, great.

Budman here.

Hey, what's up?

Oh, man, I never realized

they managed all these artists.

Who do you think they're going

to give us for our first video?

Who cares?

This is like the Hall of Fame.

Look at this.

BUDMAN: Are we go for this weekend?

Great. Thanks, buddy.

I knew this was going to be magic.

We just signed this amazing band.

You're doing their video.

I've been trying for weeks to set up a showcase for them,

and the minute we lock you,

the club calls with an open date this weekend.

(laughs) That's great.

Saturday night at the Peach Pit After Dark.

It's on Olympic.

Yeah, we know it.

Actually we, we kind of know the owner.

See? It's karma.

Who's the group?

Nobody yet.

But they are so hot.

Especially the singer.

Plays great guitar, writes all the material.

Drop-dead sexy, this guy.

They're gonna be huge.

Guy's name is Pruit. Ray Pruit.

BRANDON: So, you sure you don't want me to drive you

to the airport? No, I am fine.

Looks like you have your hands full.

Clare could use all the help she can get.

(muffled): Where are you going?

Washington.

National College Newspaper Convention.

Mm-hmm. (horn honking)

Oh, there's my shuttle.

Bye, Clare.

CLARE: Oh, bye.

Feel better, Steve.

(Steve murmurs)

And you, this is for you.

(both moaning)

I'm gonna miss you.

I'll miss you, too.

Mm-hmm. Where's my bag?

Don't miss your plane.

Okay. Bye.

(door opens)

(door closes)

All right, kids.

Today I refuse to watch Montel or Oprah or Geraldo

or any other one-named talk show host.

Hold on. What have we here?

STEVE: Is that Vega$?

Yes, sir,

that is Vega$.

The surfing stops here.

Vega$? Why?

Why? Why?

Come on, Clare. Why Vega$?

(chuckling): We're talking about Dan Tanna,

the guardian of Sin City.

The coolest of the cool.

What a car. What a car.

He's got a great car.

Is it just me, or is there something unseemly

about 20-year-olds being nostalgic?

I don't know.

God bless America.

Robert Urich!

Wasn't Bart Braverman in this show?

Bart Braverman!

DAVID: Well, there's always a bright side.

At least they didn't stick us with the, uh...

Charlie Manson Band for our next video.

Don't joke about this.

I am freaking out here.

I cannot work with Ray.

Donna, we have to at least have this meeting, all right?

We owe

that much to Erik.

Well, what am I supposed to say to Ray?

I can't, David. Donna, relax, all right?

It's over between you and Ray.

Besides, he's not going to want to do this video with us

any more than we want to do it with him.

I mean, if Joe finds out about this, he is going to flip out.

You know what? It's none of my business,

but I don't think you should say anything to Joe.

How can I not? Donna, we're gonna have

this meeting, then the whole thing is going to be over.

You think so?

Yes.

Why cause any more problems?

Fine.

You're right.

I won't tell Joe.

JOE: Tell me the truth.

You're doing fine.

All the equipment's working just the way it should.

Here, see for yourself.

Yeah, like I know what I'm looking at. (chuckles)

Yeah, well, you go and you have a great life.

Well, thank you. Sure.

Thanks for everything. Sure.

Just don't forget.

Reserve my Rose Bowl seats now.

(chuckles)

Actually, Dr. Martin, I don't know

if I'll be playing football next season.

Why not? Your health is fine.

You don't have to give up football.

Oh, I'm not going to give it up.

I'm just not going to play.

I'm gonna go back home and coach high school ball.

Pennsylvania?

That's right, Beaver Falls High School.

That's where my dad used to coach.

Both my brother and I played there.

They lost the coach

and they asked me to come out and help for the summer.

Oh, well, it's just for the summer then?

No.

In the fall, I'm gonna take over the program full-time.

Does Donna know this?

Not yet.

She's going to be heartbroken that you're leaving.

She cares a lot about you.

And I care a lot about her.

So can I ask you a favor?

Yeah, sure.

Don't say anything to Donna,

just for a while.

When do you plan on talking to her?

I don't know.

Soon.

I don't know how to break this to you, Kel,

but if that's your homework, it's late.

School's out.

No, not for me.

I have a lot to make up.

Summer semester, huh?

If I'm lucky.

Hey, Nat, uh, can you come next door?

The bondsman's waiting.

Ugh, that guy gives me the creeps.

He's all right.

He's a snake.

Well, then you ought to get along with him

just fine, Valerie.

It's nice to see you, too, Kel.

Enjoy school.

Thanks. I will.

Mr. Carr.

Ms. Malone.

This is my partner Nat Bussichio.

Well, any partner of Val's is a partner of mine,

technically speaking.

Can I get you a cup of coffee or a beer or something?

No, thanks.

Technically speaking, where exactly do we stand here?

Luckily, we still have some time.

180 days to be exact.

Cut to the chase.

Where does that leave us?

Well, according

to your partnership papers, your equity helped

to secure the money necessary to build this club.

Therefore, I have the legal right

to attach you to any debt

I'm trying to recover from Ms. Malone.

That is, of course, if Colin doesn't return.

I'm sorry, Nat.

It's okay.

Couldn't we hire someone to find Robbins,

like a, a bounty hunter or a detective?

They usually take 25% of the bond,

and that cost would have to be underwritten entirely

by you.

That's $25,000.

Well, there's always one last option I tell my clients.

What's that?

Put the prisoner's picture

on a milk carton and hope we get lucky.

(quietly): He's a snake.

I love Las Vegas.

(both laughing)

Great, great show.

Yeah. Great writers.

Yeah, great writers, great writers.

I-I never would have thought that the hooker...

Uh-uh. ...was fixing the roulette wheel

to pay for her mother's operation.

(doorbell rings) Go figure. What a heart.

Heart, heart, the girl had heart.

Don't get up.

TV ANNOUNCER: Now, stay tuned for Matt Houston

as our 24-hour Macho Marathon continues.

Matt Houston, now, isn't that it?

Too easy.

Clare, you look great.

Oh, thanks.

Aw, you shouldn't have.

I didn't, actually. They're for Steve.

Uh-huh, of course.

How thoughtful.

Come in. STEVE: Is that Carl?

Come on in, Carl. Hey-hey.

The boys are involved

in a, uh, hormonal drivel-fest here on TV.

Well, I don't watch much TV, but...

Oh, for me, flowers?

These are for you.

Oh, you're a prince of a guy.

(laughter)

Clare, would you take care of those somewhere in...

(mocks mumbling)

So how are you feeling? (sighs)

Yeah.

Hold on, tell me this isn't Matt Houston?

You know it? Oh, this is my favorite show.

I watched it all the time as a kid.

I've seen every episode.

I even tried to convince my parents

to let me commute to school by helicopter.

Me, too. Well, join us, brother.

You're in good company.

Oh, this is the one where the gourmet chef

is found murdered in the bowl of Jell-O.

Clare, come here. You have to see this.

No, I don't.

What's the matter with her?

Hmm, she's bored.

Bored? Look,

you want to make me feel better?

(chuckles)

Get her out of here.

Clare, why don't you get dressed?

I'm taking you

to dinner-- anywhere you want.

Good, as long as it's not with him.

(growls)

Don't worry, Steve. She's in good hands.

I'll bring her home in one piece.

Hey, um, do you want something to drink while you wait?

No, sit down.

Just point me in the right direction.

It's o-over there. Good.

Well, Carl sure jumped at the chance to take out Clare.

Ah, they're old friends.

Okay, just checking.

Relax.

You shouldn't have run, man.

The rest of us all got off on illegal search.

They dropped the charges

while you were doing your, uh, O.J. imitation.

(laughs)

It's pretty funny, actually.

Yeah, that's hilarious, isn't it?

I don't know.

Maybe you should just do the deuce.

Get it over with.

What are you, nuts?

It ain't happening, man.

Your call.

So, uh, what's your plan?

My plan is to get out of this country.

My plan is to hit the border as fast as I can. Wow.

You got any ID?

You know, the kind that doesn't say "Bust me, please" on it?

No.

So, can you help me out?

(clicks tongue)

You're talking some major cash.

That's great.

First I get popped because of you.

Now you want to rip me off?

Hey, hey, hey!

I'm sorry about what went down, all right?

But the scratch ain't for me.

It's for the paper.

(whispers): I'm sorry.

This whole thing has me all wound up.

All right, no worries.

All right, I'll do my best, all right?

Here.

Take this.

I just fired one of my delivery boys.

I'll beep you when I got what you need.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I take it Steve's not the easiest patient. I love him,

but, um, if you hadn't

have gotten me out of there tonight,

you may have found him dead in the morning. (chuckling)

Well, to be honest, if Steve hadn't suggested

I take you to dinner, I would have done it anyway.

You can't wait on him hand and foot.

Even a prince like Steve needs

to fend for himself every once in a while.

And what about a prince like you?

I'm very self-sufficient.

Oh, yeah, I forgot, when you, um,

moved out of the palace, you learned how

to order room service all by yourself, didn't you?

Tease me all you want. I did it to you long enough.

Mm-hmm. Well,

at least your mother always believed in me.

She knew I had potential.

She did? Yes.

Do you remember your tenth birthday party? Yeah.

My mom let us drink champagne out of her glass.

And she told us whatever we wished for

that night would come true.

So, what'd you wish for? To tell you the truth,

I don't remember,

but I do remember your mom had lots

of plans for you.

Do you know what she told me after you went to bed?

No. She told me that you and I

would be married someday.

She wanted you to grow up to be a princess.

My mom was a hopeless romantic.

And you?

I think I stopped believing

in fairy tales the day she died.

You must miss her very much.

Yeah, I do.

ERIK: I have such an amazing feeling about this.

I mean, what are the odds

of you guys knowing Ray?

We fast forward past the whole "getting to know you" thing.

It's gonna be great.

You know, Ray's pumped, too.

What, uh... what did Ray say?

Just that he couldn't wait to see you again.

There was a lot of lost time to make up for.

So look, you guys talk, genius to genius,

and then we'll all go to the Eclipse

and have some dinner on me.

You okay?

No, not really.

As long as you guys all know each other, don't let me

get in the way.

Hi, Donna.

Hi, Ray.

Small world, huh?

Look, Ray, we all know the chances

of this working are slim and none, so

why don't we just tell Erik that we had

creative differences and go home.

Do you feel that way, too, Donna?

I don't know.

Look, I've given this a lot of thought.

Number one,

I loved what you guys did with the Powerman video.

I thought it was amazing.

And number two... you guys know me,

and you know my music... and this song

I wrote, "Reckless," uh...

well, it's kind of about who I was,

and nobody knows that person better than you, Donna.

Ray, please. Look, I'm talking

about second chances,

a chance to show you all

that I'm a pretty decent guy.

I know it's a lot to ask for.

WOMAN: Ray?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Excuse me. I'll just come back when you're done.

No, it's okay, Wends, come on in.

Uh, David, Donna, this is Wendy Stevens.

Uh, we're kind of engaged.

Uh, it's nice to meet you.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Um, I mean, congratulations.

Uh, Ray didn't tell us. Oh.

Well, Ray told me a lot about you guys,

especially you, Donna.

It's a real pleasure meeting you.

Well, listen, I'm sorry I barged in.

I'll just come back when you guys are done.

No, it's okay, um...

we're finished.

No, we're not.

Um, when do we get

a chance to listen to the new material?

Well, we have a show tomorrow night.

I hope you like it.

So, you guys cooking with gas?

Uh, yeah, yeah, we're getting warmer.

Enough percolating. Come on, everybody.

It's time for dinner.

Donna, you don't know how much this means to me.

I think I do.

I'm really happy for you, Ray.

Thanks.

My life's kind of working out okay, isn't it?

Yeah, looks like it is.

BRANDON: Bad night?

Only if you think sleep is a good thing.

Only on Mondays and Tuesdays.

You know, I can't believe I let Colin do this to me.

How stupid... how stupid was I?

Brandon, you've got to help me.

Anything.

Well, I was thinking. I mean, Colin

only had one friend, and that was his dealer, right?

Danny V.

Yeah, maybe he went there.

I mean, maybe we ought to look him up.

Good idea. We'll look him up in the yellow pages.

I'm sure he's listed

under drug dealers, or we could just go down

to the corner of Crack and Eightball.

I'm sure he'll turn up there eventually.

No, I think Kelly knows where he is.

I was thinking maybe you could ask her.

Sure, yeah, I could do that...

but, um, you gotta go with me.

Never mind. Val,

you and Kelly can't keep going around and around like this.

You want to ask her for her help.

Do the right thing.

All right.

All right, I'll go.

Donna.

Hi.

Hey, you. Hey.

Um, you know, I tried to call you last night.

Your line was busy for, like, hours.

Yeah, I was on the phone with my mom.

Oh, really? How's she doing? She's fine.

Sends her love. Great.

So how'd it go?

You guys gonna do another music video?

Yeah, we sure are.

Great.

You like the music? Yeah.

Yeah, I really do.

I... I think it's gonna be a great project.

Cool, what's the name of the band?

Um... (sighs)

you know, you're not gonna believe this,

but, uh... it's Ray's band.

Ray?

As in Ray Pruit?

Yeah.

And you're gonna do this?

Joe... After what he did

to you? You know, I... I think

he's really changed.

I mean, he's doing great. He's engaged.

Okay, it's your decision.

Come on. Don't be like that.

Don't be like what?

Have you ever heard of the word "loyalty"?

You know, that is not fair. I am loyal.

I mean, this is business, nothing else.

Well, I guess you'll do whatever you have to do.

(sighs) Joe.

Wait a second. I mean, can't we even talk about this?

Talk about what?

Sounds like you already made your decision.

(sighs)

There she is.

Kelly... hi.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Actually, looking for you. Oh.

What's going on?

We came here to ask for your help.

Oh, well,

if it has anything to do with her,

you can forget about it.

You know, I knew this was a mistake.

She doesn't care about anybody but herself.

I certainly don't care about you, Valerie.

Ladies, ladies, ladies, neutral corners, huh?

(nervous chuckle)

Listen, Kel, this doesn't only have

to do with Valerie, all right?

If we can't find Colin

and Valerie loses the After Dark,

then Nat could lose the Peach Pit,

so will you listen to this, for Nat's sake?

Yeah, I'll listen.

For Nat's sake.

CARL: I think that you need to get out of this house.

Clare said that an old friend of yours

is playing at the After Dark tonight.

Mm-hmm. We're going.

Whatever you say.

And when are you getting that wire out of your mouth?

Tomorrow.

Good, 'cause Clare and I are getting tired

of this routine, and we've got

big plans for you, you and your birthday.

What plans?

I'm not gonna tell you and ruin the surprise.

Okay, well, just tell me one thing.

Sure, what is it?

Why are you doing this?

I mean, I'm a plebe, a peasant, a commoner, man.

Why... why are you being so nice?

That's one thing I love about being a prince.

I don't need a reason.

Now, go get ready.

We're gonna hear some music.

Right on.

Hey. Hey, Brandon.

Come on in, man. How you doing? Good, man, good.

You're looking well. Thanks, thanks. Hey, this is

my fiancée, Wendy Stevens.

It's nice to meet you.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Uh, just wanted to come up and tell you to have a good show.

Hey, thanks. I'm gonna try.

Thanks for everything, Brandon.

What do you mean?

Well, a while back, you were honest with me

when I needed to hear the truth.

And I'm just really glad I listened to you.

Looks like things are working out pretty well for you.

Yeah, yeah, well, I'm trying real hard.

Cool, hey look we'll see you at the Pit later, huh?

You got it. All right. Okay.

Nice to meet you.

WENDY: Nice to meet you. See ya.

It's a nice night.

Well, you're a very nice guy.

You know, I have a confession to make.

You're giving me credit for something that, uh,

I really don't deserve.

(chuckles)

I don't understand.

Well, the reason why I'm not interfering

with Ray's video is that,

I'm hoping that it's your last one.

My last one?

I thought you supported me.

You and I--

we're such completely different people.

Our lives.

Our families.

Where we grew up.

How we grew up.

Our dreams.

Yeah, but...

but we share a lot, too.

That's true.

You've done so much for me this year.

I'll always be grateful.

Joe, what are you saying?

It's just that...

I have a new dream that I haven't told you about yet.

What? What is it?

Everything that happened--

my heart,

not being able to play ball,

changed me.

Well, yes, of course.

But it's made you even stronger.

Maybe.

But all I can think about is

what Steve Young told me on my birthday.

When he talked about figuring out

what to do with my life.

I think I figured it out.

What I'm gonna do.

What is it?

I want to go back home.

Back to Beaver Falls.

And I want more than anything

for you to come with me.

I know it's a long way from the fast track in L.A.

to being the...

the wife of a high school football coach

in Beaver Falls.

But I love you.

Will you marry me?

Say something.

I don't...

I don't know what to say.

Say you love me.

Say yes.

Is this the place?

Yeah, this is where Danny V lives.

It's a couple of houses that way. All right.

If you're not out in five minutes, I'm coming in.

(knocking)

Kelly. Hi.

Come on in.

Are you alone?

Yeah.

Hey, I'm not gonna bite.

Unless you ask real nice.

I mean, is your roommate here?

Who, Kirk? Oh, no, no. Yeah.

Uh, after you banged him over the head with a wine bottle,

he went a little dingy. I had to get rid of him.

Come on.

So, uh, I was kinda surprised you called.

Really? Yeah, well, you know, uh,

last time you left

parting wasn't any kind of, uh, sweet sorrow.

You know what I'm saying?

Well, I was... messed up.

Yeah.

But you're okay now, huh? Yeah,

just a little hungry, if you know what I mean?

Oh, you're hungry?

Mm-mm. Ah, right.

All that rehab talk doesn't exactly fill the empty nights.

You can say that again.

Hmm?

No, I'm fine.

So what can I do you for?

Um, well, I'm kinda worried about Colin.

Have you heard from him?

Uh... Colin.

Yeah, yeah, he's-he's gone.

I know I hurt him, but I can't let him go without me.

He's my whole world.

I really love him.

You really mean that, don't you?

Here.

Come sit.

So, you think he's still in L.A.?

I don't know why I'm gonna tell you this.

I'm gonna tell you though.

Yeah, he's still in L.A.

I don't know where, but, uh,

he's got a beeper.

I'll give you the number.

Great.

Oh, thank you.

So, what can I get you?

I can go by weight.

Um, just a gram.

Gram, you sure? Yeah.

That's not much.

I gotta tell you, this stuff is primo.

Why don't you have a taste with me?

No, actually, I have to go.

I-I'm meeting my mom somewhere.

All the better.

Maybe some other time, huh?

I'll just take that gram for now.

All right.

That's it. I'm going in.

Don't leave me here.

I know how to find him.

Great. Let's get out of here.

Did you buy anything?

Yeah, I had to.

Give it to me.

Brandon, I'll take care of it.

Give it to me.

Donna?

What are you doing sittin' in the dark?

Just sittin'.

Are you okay?

I don't know.

What's wrong?

Joe, uh...

Joe decided to move back East.

And he wants me to go with him.

He asked me to marry him.

What?

Oh, my...

wha... what-what did you say?

I didn't say anything.

Wow.

Beaver Falls sounds beautiful and all,

but let's face it,

I'm an L.A. girl.

Do you love him?

Yeah.

I do. Well, then

what's there to think about?

Joe wants me to change my whole life.

I just...

I don't know if I can do that.

Well, when does he want an answer?

He wants to know right away.

Well, if you want, I can stay up with you tonight, you know.

No.

Thanks, but, um,

you go to bed.

Okay.

Night.

You know I've been

having my own brush with destiny.

Really? I've been thinking

a lot about my mom lately.

You know, what kind of dreams she might have had for me.

Being with Carl again brings that

all up.

He really loved my mom, you know.

It must be nice to have someone to share that with again.

It is.

Carl keeps, um,

bringing up the old memories.

He told me that, uh,

my mom told him

she wanted us to have a royal wedding one day.

Wow.

She really did have big dreams for you, didn't she?

Yeah.

It's funny 'cause later that night

when she was putting me to bed, she told me the same thing,

only Carl doesn't know.

Are you gonna tell him? No.

I don't want him to get the wrong idea.

So, you sure you're okay?

Yeah.

Would you, uh, just turn out the light though?

Yeah.

Don?

Yeah.

Remember when you were a little girl

and you used to fantasize about your wedding day?

Of course.

Every little girl does.

Those fantasies are all

becoming a little too real, aren't they?

They sure are.

Good night.

Night.

Why don't you try and page him again?

I've already paged him three times, Brandon.

Maybe he doesn't know it's you.

KELLY: Valerie, I think he's called my car phone

enough to know that it's my number.

Oh, that's right. He's in love with you.

I, I forgot.

BRANDON: Guys,

he's probably not even in L.A. anymore, okay?

KELLY: What if he is?

What exactly do you plan on doing?

Are you gonna ask him to politely turn himself in,

or are you just gonna charge right in there,

take care of things?

I'm not afraid of Colin.

Oh, and I am? BRANDON: Ladies,

we're on the same side on this, okay?

If he calls, I say we set up the meeting,

then we call the police and let them do their job.

You know, it's late.

Maybe he just turned the beeper off and went to sleep.

Yeah, maybe we should call it a night

and try this again tomorrow, huh?

(cell phone ringing)

Well, answer it.

Okay.

(beep)

Hello.

Kelly, it's me.

Colin,

I'm so glad you called back.

I've been paging you all night.

You alone?

Yeah, yeah.

Um, where are you?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I've had to do a lot of moving around.

Look, I, um, I have to see you.

I don't know, Kelly.

It's-it's not safe.

Please.

All right.

But not tonight.

Look, I'll call you tomorrow, okay?

Yeah.

I love you, Kelly.

I need you.

I need you now more than ever.

I need you, too, Colin.

Bye.

(beep)

Hey, Donna.

Hi, Wendy.

You guys loading out?

Yeah, we have a show in, uh, San Luis Obispo tonight.

Oh, don't think I got a chance to tell you,

but the show was great last night.

And I love the new song.

You know, he wrote that for you, Donna?

Yeah, I was, I was wondering about that.

WENDY: Hey, Donna,

thanks for being so nice to us.

It was really great meeting you. You made this

a real special homecoming for Ray.

DONNA: Well, we're all real happy

for you guys. Thanks.

Uh, I'm gonna go see what's left in the dressing room.

Okay. Okay.

See you later. Okay.

Wendy, Wendy's great.

Yeah, I know, she is.

Look, I owe you a lot, Donna.

Well, let's just make a great video together

and call it even. (chuckles)

You got a deal.

I just hope you're as happy as I am.

Nobody deserves it more than you do.

I hope you have all the happiness

in the world, Donna, I mean that.

Especially after what I did to you.

Thanks.

I, uh, I really needed to hear that right now.

(phone ringing)

Hello.

It's me.

I'm at the Palm Court Motel.

It's, uh, it's in Reseda.

I'm in room 106.

I'll be waiting for you here.

Hang on, hang on, let me write it...

Okay, the Palm Court,

106.

Yeah. Look, how long will it take you to get here?

Uh, a few hours.

Is there a problem?

Yeah. Just come right now.

I can't, Colin, I have a-a few things I have to finish up here.

Like what?

Uh, I-I have a doctor's appointment.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

Just hurry.

I will.

Kelly.

What?

Can I trust you?

Of course you can.

See you soon.

And to show my gratitude to the two of you

for bearing with me through my mumbling time,

I'd like to pay for lunch.

I thought I heard the familiar sound of gums flapping!

Yeah, they're mine.

Do me a favor: set us up with three mega burgers, okay?

You got it, pal.

Thanks.

Okay, let's give those lips a try.

Think that's wise? STEVE: Yeah,

the kisser's still a little sore.

I'll be the judge of that.

Okay.

Mmm.

Is that where it hurts?

Yeah, but I think we're back in business.

KELLY: I hate this.

I feel like such a snitch.

Come on, Kel, it's not like the guy cheated on a test.

I thought you didn't care about him anyway.

I don't, but still.

Here we go.

DANNY: Hey!

RENDELL: We'd like to talk to you.

Hey, lock my door.

Wait, that's not Colin.

RENDELL: Take it easy now.

You have the right

to speak to an attorney.

DANNY: I don't need to hear my rights.

What'd I do?

RENDELL: What were you doing in that room, huh?

I'm staying here.

Check the register.

Danny Fivinsky, all right?

If you don't let go of me,

you're gonna have a lawsuit on your hands.

I want you to know that.

Where's Colin?

Who's Colin?

What are you talking about?

Who are these people?

You know this guy? KELLY: Yes.

He-he's a drug dealer.

That's how I got Colin's beeper number.

I never seen this girl before in my life.

RENDELL: You're coming with us, pal.

Fine, no problem.

I got nothing to hide.

Colin knew.

He saw right through me.

Danny told him and set us up.

Now, you can bet if Danny was in that motel room,

Colin ain't far off.

Well, maybe the police will have some luck

when they put the pressure on him.

No way.

He knew we had nothing on him.

This was our one chance, and we blew it.

What did you say to Colin anyways?

You couldn't have been too convincing. Val, she did her best.

I don't need you to defend me, Brandon.

Let's go.

I didn't get much sleep last night.

No, neither did I.

The one thing...

that I know for sure...

is how much I love you.

And I love you, too.

But there's a "but" coming.

I'm just not ready yet.

I mean, we're both so young.

My mother was 19 when she got married.

Yeah.

My mom was young, too.

She got pregnant.

She...

She had to get married.

She lost the baby.

And even though her and my dad worked things out...

I know she still wonders

what she could have done with her life.

It wouldn't be that way with us.

Maybe not.

But I...

I'm not ready to leave my friends,

say good-bye

to my family...

give up the few years of freedom

we all have left before we have to grow up.

I mean, I still have

so many dreams that I haven't even tried

to make come true yet.

And I don't want to go with you

and wonder what my life might have been like.

You'd wind up hating me.

Can you understand that?

Yeah.

I still wish I could change your mind.

Well, maybe I can change yours.

I mean,

if I asked you to stay here, here with me, would you?

Uh... no.

I can't.

I've got to chase my dreams, too.

So when are you gonna go back home?

They asked for me to be out of the dorm by the end of the week.

(sniffles)

I'm gonna miss you, Donna.

I'm gonna miss you, too.

This is the part that I'm not really sure

what we're supposed to do.

(chuckles)

It's over; I guess this is where we say good-bye.

No.

It's just the beginning.

For both of us.

(chuckles)

Can I kiss you one last time?

You don't have to ask.
