? Than where you come from ?

Hey, you're up.

I have been since you started packing that weekend bag five hours ago.

New York weather is freaky.

I want to be ready for anything.

Like Denise Huxtable?

Yeah, and hook up with my homies.

And hook up with Denise Huxtable.

Catch a couple of shows.

- With Denise Huxtable. - She's gonna be so surprised, Ron!

You haven't told her you're coming?

Her letter said, "When you're in the city, drop in."

She wrote that. She didn't mean it!

Girls don't like to be surprised.

You could catch them with that goop all over their face,

fluffy little slippers with the animal faces

and Hair by Cuisinart.

Denise could never look bad.

I realized I missed her,

I never realized how much, until I got her letter.

She is fine.

Plenty of girls are fine.

Denise has something special.

She's like a beautiful spirit that just shines through, you know?

Well, you wouldn't be so happy

if that spirit was shining through

the face and body of Jabba the Hutt.

True, but then she wouldn't be Denise.

I'm telling you, I'm ready for her this time.

The question is, is Denise ready for you?

Yes, and I have proof.

"Africa has changed me in ways I can only tell you face-to-face."

"I feel like my life has started all over again."

You see this?

"Face-to-face."

"Started over again."

Don't touch the letter.

Well, that's true.

That could mean that Denise is ready to come back to you and Hillman,

or that she fell off an elephant and thinks she's Shirley MacLaine.

I'm telling you, she's coming back,

we're gonna graduate with honors� together.

Ron, you see, I'm good for her.

I anchor her.

She makes me fly.

That's beautiful.

It reminds me of me and Whitley.

Yeah, I could see how it would, Ron.

They're predicting snow all weekend.

Even the weatherman doesn't want Daddy to marry Monica.

Come on! The wedding is not gonna be fun,

but it will be over before you know it.

That's easy for you to say.

Your daddy isn't about to totter down the aisle

with some 24-year-old funeral parlor heiress from Teaneck.

Come on, you said yourself she's not so bad.

For some cheap little chippy on the side.

I didn't know he was going to marry the floozy.

Would you feel differently if she were older?

Freddie, age is not the point.

She's a gold-digging sadist!

"Sadist?"

Sadist.

Exhibit "A."

My bridesmaid gown.

Do you think she picked this emerald city creation

to complement my beauty?

I'm gonna look like a refugee from the Wiz.

If you don't like these people, why do you care about how you look?

Who let her in here?

I think that this is wonderful.

He has a chance to start life anew,

have more children�

Your father wants to marry Monica. Think of his happiness.

I'm going to tell the congregation that Monica was a man.

You really wanna leave the church in a straitjacket, don't you?

It will look better on me than this dress.

Get dressed. Dwayne is gonna be here in a half an hour.

I know.

I'll just talk to Daddy.

I've always been his special girl.

He'll listen to me.

He has to!

What if that doesn't work?

How icy is the Hudson River this time of year?

Don't even think about jumping.

Jumping?

I'm talking about pushing.

- Hey, Jaleesa, is Whitley ready? - Yeah, she'll be right down.

You're looking forward to seeing Denise, huh?

I couldn't sleep last night! Instead of counting sheep,

I counted the reasons Denise didn't take me seriously. Got it down to 20.

I was too eager, too goofy-

You talk too much.

That's 21 reasons.

Uh-huh.

You were her roommate. Did she talk about me much?

A fair amount.

- Tell me what she said! - No, my lips are sealed.

- Jaleesa, it's been a year-and-a-half! - All right, all right! Um�

Once, she said that you were geeky and immature,

but that one day, you would be something.

And that day has come.

I'm gonna show her the suave, sofisticado Dwayne Wayne.

You're crazy.

What's the matter?

Haven't you seen anyone dressed for a wedding before?

Mush, Dwayne.

Where's your daddy getting married, Transylvania?

Dwayne.

Hi, Mrs. Huxtable. I didn't mean to drop in.

Well, I did, but if now's not a good time-

You better get in here and give me a kiss! Look at you!

- How are you? - I'm fine.

And who told you you could grow up?

Is Denise home?

Is that your way of saying you did not come to see me?

No, I really did come to see you, too-

Don't lie.

Denise,

there's a man that's come to sell you some insurance.

I didn't�

Hey, Dwayne!

It's so good to see you.

Can I have another hug?

I'm not trying to get fresh, Mrs. Huxtable.

I just wanna make sure she's really here.

- I'll mind your tomato sauce. - Thanks, Mom.

Dwayne! I can't believe it.

Your note said if I was in town, I should drop in.

Glad you did.

Denise�

you're like the cosmic caterpillar.

Am I supposed to say thank you?

It was my favorite ride at this amusement park.

It never let me down. It had my heart pounding every time,

just like being here with you.

- That's really� - That's really goofy, I know.

Trust me, I don't say things like that anymore.

No, I was going to say that's really sweet.

Gosh!

So much has happened!

You're telling me. You wouldn't recognize Gilbert Hall, it's gone coed.

- Really? Wow! - Yes!

But I don't hang out there much. Got a place off campus.

When you come back� Well, if you come back,

I could get you a place in my building.

I don't think I'm coming back to school, not any time soon.

That's okay.

'Cause the apartments in my building don't go fast.

A lot of the things that have happened, I� I just couldn't put them in the letter.

Honey? Your lasagna noodles are ready.

Okay, thanks, Mom.

- I'll be right back. - I'll be right here!

Here we go.

Do fish sleep?

Not if you keep bouncing them around like that, miss bugaboo.

- Hello. - Hey, how you doing?

All right.

It's good to finally meet you! Denise told me so much about you.

- I'm Dwayne. - Dwayne Wayne?

Yes!

Hey, man, how's it going?

- Denise has told me a lot about you. - Yeah?

Do fish sleep?

I don't know. I never asked one.

You must be a friend of Rudy's.

Yes. She gives me toys.

This is Olivia.

Well, aren't you a little sweetheart?

Uh-huh!

So� you all met.

Remember, you kept saying,

"When you see Theo, you'll like him right away?"

And you're right. I like him right away.

Um�

This isn't Theo.

Alvin!

Dude, I'm sorry!

Man, forgive me!

This must be one of the twins.

Dwayne?

This is Martin Kendall�

My husband.

Your who?

And my daddy.

Yeah.

Martin and I, we got married in Africa.

Wow!

This is great!

Denise's husband, that's you!

Man!

Congratulations.

Mazel tov!

Welcome to the family.

So� you met in Africa.

12 million square miles of continent,

and you two bump into each other!

Yeah, I bet you never expected to see her end up with an engineer.

Not in my wildest dreams.

�so then he married Monica. Can you believe it?

Hello, everyone.

Denise?

Let me look at you, girl!

Lots of sea shells.

Well, I'm sorry I'm so early.

What a fiasco that wedding was�

but you just have to laugh.

You weren't supposed to be here for another two hours.

Who conducted the ceremony, Evelyn Wood-speed preacher?

When Daddy put Monica's bridal veil on his head

and started singing "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing,"

it made me feel like leaving.

Would you like something to eat?

No, thank you.

You should have seen this wedding.

The bridesmaids were barely out of their teens,

and the ushers were well into their dentures.

In that, I had the only youngster in the whole bunch.

It was Tito, Monica's little brother.

He summers as a pallbearer in the family funeral business.

Well, he walked like he had a casket on his shoulder.

I said, "Put some pep in your step, Tito."

"This is a wedding, not a funeral."

Who are you?

My daddy.

Are you Glinda, the Good Witch?

She's just Whitley.

Whitley, this is my step-daughter, Olivia.

And, my husband, Martin Kendall.

How do you do?

Oh, my.

I thought all you were gonna bring back from Africa

were some wooden salad bowls.

What are you doing?

I'm just putting the trash out.

Good. That dress was ugly!

Next time Monica gets married,

she should have you design the dress.

Who's Monica?

Just some woman who was born to be a second wife.

Meat's not good for you.

Thank you for telling me.

Where does Mrs. Huxtable keep the bread?

In the bread box.

Ah-ha!

Hallelujah, just what I needed.

You know, Olivia, I have had some day today.

Now, you saw the dress I had to wear.

Ug-ugly.

Then when I got there, all these little squirmy kids-

Hungry?

No, not really.

Leave some bread for me.

What can I prepare for you to eat?

Nothing, really.

Salami and cheese with Dijon mustard,

lettuce and tomato and pickles.

Little itty-bitty french ones, if you have them.

I believe we do.

You know, I don't usually make commando raids on my hostess' pantry.

It's just that I'm not quite myself.

That's understandable. It's difficult when your father takes a new bride,

especially one so young.

I'm over that.

I always say, as long as Daddy's happy.

That's a very mature attitude.

You just have to laugh.

I'm really worried about my mama.

Really?

All the other wives always hated my mama

because their husbands couldn't wait for her to show up in her tennis skirt.

Today at the wedding,

her best friend, Louise Sujay, that graceless cow,

had the nerve to say to me,

"I'm sorry your mama couldn't be here today."

"Please send her my best."

We all know what Louise Sujay looks like in her tennis skirt.

A cow.

And if your mother's anything like her daughter,

she will tell that graceless cow where to go and how to get there.

Mama always says she's better off without him.

But I don't think she means it.

This must be very painful� for your mother, I mean.

But it sounds to me like she's a very strong woman, she'll�

go on with her life and she'll be fine.

I just can't believe my daddy traded me�

Ha! You just have to laugh!

No need to cut it.

It looks delicious.

I always get so famished when my mother's upset.

They shouldn't rent ice skates to just anybody.

You should have to get a license.

Yeah, that little girl that knocked you down was a speed demon.

Would you like me to sew up your split for you-

It's not where anybody will see it.

How about I make some hot chocolate to warm ourselves?

- That would be great. Yay! - Yay!

Yay!

That would be great.

He's a great guy.

If I were a girl, I'd marry him, too.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Dwayne�

I'm sorry. I didn't want you to find out about Martin this way.

A letter seemed so cold, man.

It's been a year-and-a-half. Didn't know how you felt.

No apologies necessary. We were buddies, right?

So one night we went out for Japanese food and we kissed.

It was a great kiss.

Yeah.

But it was a year-and-a-half ago.

I was just one of many guys who had a crush on you.

Listen to you. You were never just anyone!

Come on.

When everyone was telling me I was the worst student in history,

you were always encouraging me.

You always made me feel special and smart.

You were never just anything.

I think maybe you could sew up my pants.

I'm starting to feel a little breeze in here.

I'll miss you.

I have that same effect on my family.

It's after I'm gone, they realized they liked me.

Come here, you.

? Memories ?

? Like the corners of my mind� ?

- Hey. - Hey!

Take good care of my girl.

It's a promise.

Well, you all have a safe trip.

- Here's a little snack for you. - Thank you.

Salami and cheese.

Yes, and some little french pickles.

Thank you� for everything.

Bye, Witchley!

Isn't she a living doll?

Witchley.

Bye, Martin.

How did you like Denise's vegetarian lasagna?

I didn't sample that culinary delight.

Too bad. It was the perfect blend of tomato, pasta and tofu.

Tofu?

She's not gonna hang onto Martin cooking like that.

Why, damn it?

He doesn't seem like your typical bean curd lover.

How could her parents let her go to Africa?

They should've known she'd hook up

with some good-for-nothing Annapolis lieutenant engineer in the navy!

I hate Annapolis!

Dwayne,

the boy is cute, but he is a bit of a dullard.

A laxative wouldn't do him any harm.

That dullard got the only girl I ever loved.

The only woman I ever almost,

could've maybe fallen totally and completely in love with.

Surely,

on the face of God's great earth, there�

She's not the only one

that you could fall totally and completely in love with.

If there's another one, I haven't met her.

She tried to tell me, you know?

But I wouldn't let her.

"I'll get you a place in my building."

What a Class A fool!

Lots of women would be thrilled to have you act so foolish over them.

Is he better looking than I am?

No, not at all.

In fact, the only thing he has over you,

is a few layers of muscle tissue.

Thank you.

You know, if I ever meet cupid, I'm gonna wring his neck.

Finally!

I had to walk two miles.

Are we gonna die in here, or are they sending help?

Someone should be here in a half hour with your new tire.

Can't believe you threw out the spare.

Well, I didn't want that nasty thing in my trunk.

It's freezing in here!

Thank you for going for help.

You're welcome.

It's freezing in here.

Whew!

Gosh.

Here.

When Monica and Daddy come back from their honeymoon

they'll move into their new house.

It's got four big bedrooms,

and plenty of room for a jungle gym.

I guess they're planning a large family.

The best part of it is,

Daddy said they're putting a fold-out bed in the den,

just for me.

He said, "You can be our guest from time to time, honey."

That's when I left.

Sometimes happiness makes people a little selfish and very dense.

I walked down that hallway as slowly as I possibly could.

I just knew my daddy was going to follow me.

But the last thing I heard as the elevator door slid shut

was his laughter.

It won't be like this forever, Whitley.

No.

Then they'll have other children.

And they'll say, "You can't sleep in the den."

"That's the kids' TV room."

"But the dog house is all yours."

The man's in the clouds right now. He'll come back down.

Maybe.

All I know is I'm never getting married�

Ever.

Ever?

No.

I'm just going to have poodles.

They're dependable.

We should hook up because I'll be 95 years old,

sitting on Denise's porch,

talking all about, "Why wasn't I the one?"

So it's a date?

Uh, what?

Saturday night, November 20, 2049,

Bingo at the Free Will Baptist Church.

Okay, it's a date.

Good.

I'm glad you're here.

So am I.

What are we doing?

I don't know.

Can we do it again?

- See you at Bingo. See you at Bingo.
