300 points. But you were close, though,
Lisa, with 149.

Well, at least I used real words. You
got 75 points for majornly.

So, it's an adverb. They're allowed.

Okay, then tell me what it means.

To act in a majorn -like fashion.

Oh, can I borrow that meditation book
that Molly gave you at support group?

sure. Did you like it? Oh, I loved it.
Are you kidding?

Boy, without it, we would have had a
tippy table.

You know, if you actually read this
book, it would help you to sleep.

Well, I already have a book to help me
sleep. I'm reading Colin Powell's

autobiography. I'm on page 210, and he's
five.

Murphy, this was so much fun.

Yeah, I had a good time, too. You know,
just when you think you're too old to

make new friends, you do.

Yeah, I know. Wait a minute, you're not
that old. Well, I'll have you know I'll

be 30 on Tuesday.

Oh, well, that's kind of a big deal.

Tell me about it.

When I was in high school, I thought
that by the time I was 30, I would be

married. Mrs. Wally Tuttle.

Who?

He was the captain of the football team.

He's this big, adorable lug.

Well, what, did he take you to the
senior prom or something?

Well, how could he? I never talked to
him. Not that I talked to my prom date,

either.

Why didn't you talk to Wally? I mean, a
guy named Wally couldn't have been that

unapproachable. Well, he was three years
older than me, you know. I mean, the

high... school food chain thing or
Fathomor having a crush on a senior.

He had a Mustang convertible. I had
headgear.

Insurmountable odds.

Anyway, thank you so much. Well, I had a
great time.

You know what, Lisa?

I'm going to take you out to lunch on
your birthday.

Yeah? Okay, cool.

But no singing waiters.

I can't promise.

No birthday tiaras or mylar balloons. No
gorillagram.

We'll see.

And no expensive presents. That I
promise.

So then, where do we put Murphy's John
Glenn piece?

First.

First? Why should she go first?

Hola, mis amigos.

I am back from Cuba.

So, how'd it go?

You know, the promo department is
champing at the bit. Frank Fontana's

Cuba. Oh, I'll tell you something. It
was amazing. The food, the music, the

people. And you know what?

Castro himself took us around the
island. Yes, yes, yes, Frank. But what

about...

What was that, Jim? Nothing, Frank.

I think what Jim means is, did you bring
back any Cuban contraband, you know, of

the cigar family? Oh, but that would be
wrong. Oh, yes, terribly wrong. So,

Frank, may I see you in my office after
the meeting? I have this thing that you

wanted to see.

Oh, you two are so bad at this, Frank.

Just give him the cigars.

Well, actually, I have got them right
here.

Very clever.

And it's taped to your chest.

Frank,

did you bring me something nice back
from Cuba? I have to give my friend Lisa

birthday present.

Yeah, actually, I did. I got you this
pen.

When you turn it upside down, Castro's
pants fall down.

Hey, hey, hey, that's disgusting. I'm
confiscating this.

idea what to get her. Oh, you're talking
about Lisa from your support group?

Yeah, and she turns 30 on Tuesday.

She had dinner at your house the other
night. What did you two talk about?

Sometimes people drop subtle hints.

Well, let's see. We played Scrabble, and
then we played that game I made up, Six

Degrees of Rodney McDowell. She really
wasn't very knowledgeable.

And then she talked about this guy she
had a crush on in high school.

Well, if she can't have the pen, it's
mine.

I know.

She's going to love this.

See, Lisa missed her chance with that
guy in high school.

And I'm going to find him.

I'm going to find Wally Tuttle.

How do you know she wants to see him?

Well, of course she does.

I mean, when I was in my high school
production of The Music Man, I was cast

one of the pick -a -little -talk -a
-little ladies. I was, in fact, quite

In my high school, we did Oklahoma.

I was curly.

Jim, I'm talking.

Anyway, this incredibly handsome guy
named Dennis played The Music Man, and I

had such a crush on him. So I know what
it's like to have unrequited love. In

our production of 808, he was played by
a lovely girl, Lois Bedini.

I heard she got heavy.

But Lisa would love it if I could find
this guy for her.

The Wally Tuttle search begins now.

Where's Wally?

You know, every now and then I do
believe that this whole experience with

cancer... has had a positive impact on
Murphy's personality.

I agree. I mean, look at this.

She's actually going out of her way to
do something nice for someone she hardly

even knows. You know, I actually saw her
hold the elevator for someone the other

day. Oh, that's so sweet.

Before we get all misty -eyed, let's
remember that this is the very same

who hollered at a Salvation Army Santa
just because the kettle was blocking the

entrance to the donut shop.

You know what we should do? Yes, get
back to work. No, we should find

lost love.

What? Well, I think she made it pretty
clear that she wants us to find that

music man of hers. You know, I think
she's right.

And let's face it, she's had a tough
year. She deserves something special,

And besides, it would be fun, kind of
like a scavenger hunt. I'll contact her

high school. I'll call her father. I'll
dig through the archives.

While you're out there, why don't you
sit here and find me a job? Because when

people tune in on Wednesday night, I'm
going to need one because there won't be

any show.

Just got to get those grades up, right,
buddy?

Wally Tuttle?

Murphy Brown.

Wow, Murphy Brown, this is great.

Boy, I had a tough time tracking you
down.

Tracking me down, you did.

Do you have a moment?

Ah, geez, you know, now's not really a
good time. I've got to get to practice.

Well, this is the thing, sir. Look, Miss
Brown, maybe after the season.

Wally? Hey, hey, you can't come in here.

Don't look at me like that. I have a
son.

Stay away from me.

From that FYI show, whenever you track
down somebody at work, they always end

in jail. That's not why I'm here.

Is that you?

Get back in the shower. You're not done.

Look, look, look, look. If this is about
Ricky Markham, he's 7 '1", and he's

only a freshman.

Wally. Okay, I bought him socks.

You want to go after somebody, go after
Macy's. They charge $11 for sweat socks.

Wally? Yes?

You remember a girl from high school
named Lisa Barlow?

Cheerleader. Three years younger than
you.

So, Kate, did you find anything good on
Murphy yet? Did you know she was the

biggest baby ever born in the state of
Pennsylvania?

There was a movement.

To put it on the license plate.

Welcome to the Keystone State, home of
the biggest baby.

Her parents got a year's supply of free
baby food. She ate it in a month.

This isn't good dirt.

You know, we can use this against her. I
mean, if we have to.

Which we will.

So why don't we think of this sooner,
Frank?

Have you found anything yet? Yeah.

This is my copy of G .I. Jane.

I gave this to her about 11 months ago.
She's supposed to return it. This is

going to cost me like 100 bucks.

All right, Jim, what took you so long?

I smoked that Cuban cigar.

I got dizzy, couldn't drive, took 45
minutes for my head to clear.

Do you have any more?

Never mind that. Did you get it?
Affirmative.

Murphy's sophomore yearbook.

Give me, give me, give me. Oh, quick,
look in the back. That's where the

extracurricular activities are. Ah,

there it is. The music man.

Harold Hill, played by Dennis...

Ah, he is cute.

See if they have his parents' address in
the back. No, no, wait, wait, wait.

Let's do what Murphy looks like. There
she is.

Oh, look at that sweet little face.

How is it someone that angelic could
turn into Murphy Brown?

Wait a minute. That's not her.

That's her.

Oh.

Are you kidding? Phil's is famous for
his food. You've never heard of it? Oh,

no, I've heard of Phil. My nutritionist
goes on and on about it.

Was there really a Phil?

Well, there was.

Unfortunately, he died.

So, all of the things on the menu, the
little hearts by them are the healthy

choices.

Fried shrimp, fried zucchini, peanut
butter cheesecake.

Whose heart is this, Phil?

Harvey, thank you for taking me out on
my birthday.

My pleasure.

Uh, so why don't we order? The food
really is pretty good. Oh, waiter?

Oh, darling boy, I need some bubble
water.

I'll tell your waitress. You be my
waiter.

So, any big birthday plans tonight?

Oh, no. Just probably a movie with some
friends.

I'm not really big on birthdays.

Go away. We're not ready to order.

I am.

I'm not going.

Can I take your order?

Oh, we're not ready yet. Yes, we are.
I'm starving.

What?

Winger, do you have any specials today?
My friend here is particularly

interested in something on the healthy
side.

Oh, that's okay. I'll just order off the
menu. Listen to the specials. Waiter,

what are the specials?

Uh, it's, uh, p -p -p -pumpkin soup.

I'll have that. No, don't have that.
That's what kills Phil.

Don't you have any other specials? You
have a nice speaking voice, doesn't he?

Have a nice speaking voice. Yeah, I'll
have a salad.

You know what? We're not ready to order
yet.

Murphy! We'll just be a few more
minutes. Why don't you tell us your

then when we're ready, we can call you.

Wally.

Wally.

That's a nice name, Wally.

What's your last name, just in case
there's another Wally?

Wally Tuttle.

That's funny. I knew a Wally Tuttle.

How's your grilled snapper?

Hi, Lisa.

You're a waiter?

Oh,

no, no. I found him. This is your
present. Happy birthday. Sit down,

Hi.

Hi.

So, Lisa, aren't you happy to see Wally,
to talk to Wally?

Happy to see you, Orangey. Tell Lisa
you're happy to see me.

You look great, Lisa.

Well, thanks. You're partial to the
gypsy look.

Actually, I am. I get to see your eyes.

I've always liked your eyes.

You did?

Well, I'll let you two catch up.

Thank you.

Happy birthday.

Oh, great, great. You're here. You're
here.

Frank, Frank, look, I got Wally and Lisa
together. I did that.

That's my handiwork.

There. Now you've been touched by an
angel, too.

That's great.

That's really great. But look, we've got
to leave here right away.

Well, why? Why, Frank? Where are we
going?

We're going to Delaware. It's urgent.

Well, Delaware is never urgent.

Well, it is when Joe Biden is going to
announce that he's running for president

and he wants to do it live on FYI. But
more importantly, he's going to announce

Gephardt as his running mate. Is
Gephardt taking my advice and dyeing his

eyebrows? Even a little pencil would
help.

No, no, no. Oh, this doesn't sound
right. It seems like a publicity stunt.

Okay, fine. You stay here. I'll go get
the story. It'll be just great.

Wait a minute. You're leaving something
out, aren't you? You're downplaying the

story because you don't want me to go.
Well, well, I... I'm a little more

than that, Frank.

Next time, try to be a little less
obvious.

Busted. She fell for it.

We're going to wait now. Someone's going
to have to drive. I rode my Harley.

What made it?

I don't see them. Where are our
newsmakers, Frank?

Someone put us up to this, you know. The
same people who straightened Paula

Jones' teeth are behind it. I know it.

Come on. Come all this way. Let's just
give them another few minutes. Come on.

Come on.

Want to miss your interview with Joe
Biden?

Or Dick Gephardt.

Every jerk's supposed to show up, but
I've got news for you. He'll be

sooner than one of those other two.

What are you guys doing here?

We hear they have really good beer
soaked.

All right, knock it off. What's going
on?

Ladies and gentlemen, our next performer
has performed up and down the eastern

corridor from Connecticut.

to parts of South Carolina and as far
west as Ohio, to please give a warm

Wilmington welcome for the musical
stylings of Mr.

Dennis. Hey!

Hey, little girl, comb your hair, check
your makeup, and we will walk through

that door.

Don't take the puzzle with a wing on
your finger.

You needn't try any...

Remember that guy from the music, man?
Hey, who's touched by an angel now, huh?

Of all the things you've ever done for
me, this is the one you're going to

regret the most.

It was Corky's idea.

A little girl, comb your hair, check
your makeup, soon

it's...

guest in the house tonight, someone who
needs no introduction, but I'm going to

give her one anyway.

Murphy Brown.

Never my leading lady, but she was
always in the room.

Come on up on stage, will you, Murphy?

It's so great to see you again.

Come on.

There you go, right there.

Oh, you still got it.

Murphy, we met a long, long time ago.
Why don't you tell the people where that

was? No. Come on.

I picture this.

He's a... Billy, could you give me a
little back then music, okay?

Yeah, here we go.

All right,

where were we? I'm sorry.

I was just leaving. No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no. Picture this, picture this.

He's a high school senior, star of The
Music Man.

She's an apple -cheeked sophomore,
member of the chorus.

She carries a big torch for him.

Can you guess who this cast of
characters was, ladies and gentlemen?

got it. They got it.

And, of course, the crazy part was that
he never knew until her friends called

him just a few short days ago and told
him her secret and begged him to receive

her.

He's going to kill us. Not me. I've got
a passport and a fake mustache in the

car.

I've written this special medley just
for you.

Here you go, have a seat.

But I'm dedicating it to all the lonely
ladies out there who are dreaming of

finding their unrequited love.

Because if Murphy Brown can find me,
believe me, nothing's impossible.

I want to be in a room that's crowded
and well -lit. Right. Let's go.

Thank you, Murphy. That was the money
shot.

Boy, I can't believe you're just as
pretty as you were in high school.

It's good to see you again. It's a real
kick, you know?

Yeah, yeah, it's a kick.

Well, it's been an evening. See you.

I was thinking, of all our classmates,
we're the only two who really made it.

prize was in your graduating class.

Yeah, for chemistry.

I should really be going.

Murphy, Murphy.

You happy?

No, but I will be as soon as I get on
the turnpike.

It's always good to go home, isn't it?

Murphy, can a senior talk to a
sophomore, give her a little piece of

As long as you don't sing it.

Gotta save the pipes.

I've got nine shows tomorrow.

I want you to be happy.

And here's my prescription.

Get on with your life.

For God's sake, stop living in the past.

Now, you've done very well for yourself,
as have I.

Are you comparing our careers?

Okay, okay, that was unfair.

People pay to see me. People can watch
you on TV for nothing, but... I think

what I want to say... Yes, Dennis?

What do you want to say?

Because then I'll... say what I want to
say.

I'm a married man.

I don't wear the ring in the act
because, well, it's all about dreams,

It's time to wake up, Murphy Brown.

Are you finished?

I'm so glad you came here tonight.

You know, I bet you look around you and
you think, yeah, he's always had it this

good.

Well, I'll tell you what. I was flying.
I was sitting on top of the world.

And then the bottom dropped out.

I had a heart attack.

Man, do they hurt.

So I was thinking, was this heart attack
a wake -up call?

Was the big man, or chick, telling me...

And then your friends call me out of the
blue.

And you show up here, loving me.

And it's pretty clear I'm not supposed
to pack it in.

Yet.

So what did you want to tell me, Mary?

You... were really good in that
production

of The Music Man.

And...

That's the way I'll always remember you.

Well, you know what I'll always remember
about you in high school?

Me.

Standing on that stage, singing my show
-stopping tune, and you watching from

the wings.

Young lady, I'm going to take you back
to a time when that was all still

possible. Bill, play that tune the
ladies like so much, will you?

Seventy -six trombones.

Me and Mrs.

Carter Shepley.
