Monday, Monday, happy days. Wednesday, Wednesday, happy days. Thursday, Friday,

happy days.

The weekend comes, a cycle hums, ready to race to you.

These days are ours, happy and free.

These days are ours, share them with me.

Goodbye gray sky, hello blue. There's nothing can hold me when I hold you so

right. It can't be wrong.

Rocking and rolling all week long.

Five, four, three, two, one.

She is exactly one hour late. Now I'm mad. Yep, it's official.

Joanie's made a fool out of you again. Yeah, well, I'll tell you, it's not

to happen again.

I am not going to let her take advantage of me anymore.

I hear you, Judge.

That's right. This is where I draw the line. Yeah, and it's about time.

That's right. I don't let anybody step all over me. Like a piece of gum on a

ballroom floor. I am fed up with this college stuff.

Know what I'm going to do?

When she gets here, I am going to lay down the law.

That's right. You know, you got to be firm.

Sure. You bet I will.

You know, and I'd love to stay here and see the kid in action rights.

But I got to pick up my girl.

From five minutes late, she'll change her phone number again.

Hey,

Bob,

you see a 3 -D movie?

No, why? You lose one.

No, see, what happened was, I went to the eye doctor to check my eyes, you

Then they put them drops in it. It only got wet dark glasses. I don't want to.

So that's so that you don't, you know, memorize the chalk until afterwards.

That's what I'm talking about.

What? What happened to Tommy?

He just left. Can you see? I can see fine.

My vision is perfect. I can see things at 200 yards people haven't even heard

yet. Are you kidding me?

Chachi was an hour ago.

Now it's, Chachi, forgive me, I was thoughtless.

All right, Chachi, listen, I'm sorry I'm late, so don't start up with me, okay?

I waited forever to get my student ID and found out I was in line to touch the

Maharishi.

No, I guess I should be honored that you showed up at all. Come on, Chachi, we

have to have the same argument over again. All right, all right, forget it,

okay? Look, I'm late already, so let's go.

Where are we going?

What does it look like?

Joanie, it's Tuesday. I have a softball game tonight. Come on. No, no. I start

my new class tonight.

You're going to miss one of my games?

No. I'm going to miss all of your games. My class is every Tuesday night.

Oh, great.

Great! Why don't you yell a little louder? They can't hear you in the

lot. I don't care.

Well, you should care.

Joanie, you never used to miss my softball games.

I mean, you'd sit... in the stands and keep my stats.

We would have a great time.

Chachi, it's just a ball game.

You know, you've changed. I have not. You have to.

You used to hate school and now all you think about is this college stuff.

So I'm a bad person because I don't hate school? Is that what you're saying?

I see what you're doing now.

What? Now you're taking what I'm saying and you're twisting it around, aren't

you? Is that what they teach you in college?

Chachi, you're obviously out of your mind right now, so I think we should

about this some other time. No, no, no. I think we should talk about it right

now. No. Yes.

You're no fun anymore, Joanie.

You don't come to my softball games.

You don't listen to me play my music.

You don't even come with me to buy my clothes anymore.

Now, I want the old Joanie back, and I want her at my game tonight.

You're nuts.

And you haven't hit a home run in three months.

Fonz, I got a problem with Joanie.

Do you know that she's not coming to my softball game tonight?

No. Yeah.

Well, I told her I wanted the old Joanie back. You know what she told me? She

said I was nuts.

She's right, you know.

whole life. What do you give her? Nothing. Hey, hey, last week I gave her

game ball. You gave her the game ball.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Let me ask you a question, huh?

Do you think that Joanie's maturing? Huh? Yeah, that's right, she is.

She's going to college now. What do you do?

Huh? She finds out that she likes college and you make fun of her. You

put her down for going to classes, right?

Right, right.

You're not going to make points with her by showing how much you hate her.

You've got to show her how much you love her.

That's beautiful.

Yeah, isn't it?

I'm going to start keeping a journal.

Wait a minute.

I think I can see shapes.

My place, you and me.

What do you think, huh? I was just, you know, having fun.

That's all.

I'm cool.

Thanks for picking me up, Dad.

Why is it, honey? What's the matter?

Dad, it's me and Chachi.

Oh, again, huh?

It's just no good.

All we do is yell and scream and make each other miserable.

And I don't know what I'm going to do about it.

Idiot, get off my tail!

It seems I don't have time for Chachi anymore.

You know, we used to be inseparable.

You know, he was in the background of my first driver's license photo.

The trouble is, he wants me to be what I was when I was 17.

That girl on the beach was wearing Chachi's jersey.

Listen, I know just how he feels.

Sometimes I still wish you were that little girl I used to bring home from

school.

You know, I thought Chachi and I would go on forever.

I never make this life.

Now, before I see him, I get this big knot in my stomach. Because I know we're

going to fight.

Everything that's good in my life is making him miserable.

I think the best thing that I could do for both of us is to break up with him.

Dad, the light's green.

Well, look, maybe you ought to sleep on it for a while. Come on, Dad, that's not

going to do any good.

I'm going to tell him tonight.

We're going to break up.

All right, all right, I'm moving over.

These firemen think they own the road.

to drive Joanie home from her class.

Oh, well, I guess I can wait. Well, sit down, dear.

Would you like to talk to me?

Nothing personal, Mr. C., but I need to talk to the father of the daughter, Mr.

C. I see.

Or this is men's stuff.

Football, locker room talk.

This and that.

Oh, no, not exactly.

Okay, well, I won't pry.

You want to borrow Howard's car, is that it, dear? No, that's not it. Of course

that's not it. It's none of my business. Is it money? It's money.

I need to talk to Mr.

C. Well, I understand.

All right, I'll tell you.

Joanie and I have to get married.

Joanie. I want to marry Joanie. I love her.

Oh, oh, Tasha.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, a wedding. Oh, that is such good news.

Oh, Joanie must be so happy.

Well, she doesn't exactly know yet.

You see, I came to ask Mr.

C's blessing first.

Well, listen, dear, I'll take care of Howard.

You just take care of Joanie forever and ever. I will.

Amen.

I've only been gone for two hours.

Well, two hours can sometimes be the turning point in a young woman's life.

You've been making rum cake again, Mary?

I've been chatting with Chachi, dear, dear Chachi.

Chachi, I'm glad you're here. I wanted to talk to you.

And I want to talk to you, too.

It's kind of personal. Can we be alone for a minute, please? Oh, yeah, Howard,

they want to be alone. Come on.

Come on, you can sit on my feet while I do sit -ups, huh?

Oh, Howard, this is the most exciting night of my life.

Right, you can do it again tomorrow.

Jody, I, uh... So, how was your game tonight?

I went 0 for 4.

Oh.

But I don't care.

Jody, will you sit down for a second?

I think it's pretty obvious to the both of us that we can't go on the way we're

going.

Absolutely. I've given this a lot of thought, and even though we may have

difficult times in the beginning, I think it's time we made the big move.

Wow.

This is amazing.

I was saying the same thing to my dad on the way over here.

I'm so glad I didn't have to be the one to bring it up.

Yeah, well, I can see how it would be kind of embarrassing for you to ask.

Are you sure about this? Yes, yes, Joanie, trust me. It's the only thing we

do.

Well, then this is it.

It's time we got married.

You've got to

help me, Franz.

You've got to get me back into her life. How do I do that?

Maybe you don't.

Okay.

All right, Josh, look.

If anything is going to work, it's got to be big and romantic. You know, like

the man who comes in on a horse in those movies and sweeps the girl off her

feet, you know, before she turns into a pumpkin.

I'm going to sweep Joanie off her feet like Tarzan did to Jane.

I'm going to take her to the top of the Empire State Building like King Kong did

to Fay Wray.

We are going to live happily ever after, just like Romeo and Juliet.

See, this is embarrassing.

I mean, my cousins don't even know that Juliet died from eating a poison apple.

Do you mind if I'm very upset?

question. Yes, Miss Cunningham.

It didn't say in the catalog, but will this class help us prepare to teach in

high school?

Nothing will prepare you to teach in high school.

However, I will say that we've had a very good first day of class.

When we meet next time, I'd like you to turn to page 176 and...

Chuck, this just isn't like you.

Oh, what you mean is, this isn't like the Chachi you broke up with yesterday.

Oh, forget that guy.

And say hello to the new Chachi. He's going to make every day a romantic

adventure.

Oh, I have to admit, what you're doing is very sweet.

I'm glad you think so.

Because I got one heck of a rope burn.

Chachi, this isn't going to change anything.

Wait.

me down now.

Are you just going to be angry with me again?

Why? What are you going to do?

The things I've been doing and things that make you angry and frustrated make

feel guilty and make us fight.

Touch, I'm not the girl for you.

You look a hell of a lot like her.

Joey, what happened?

It was so perfect.

You know, and... We thought that nothing would ever come between us.

We were 17 then.

And now we're not.

We can still be friends. No!

Don't say it.

This is the part where you tell me how much you want to be my friend.

I...

make it better or worse.

But the time we spent together was the best time of my whole life.

You begged me to stay, but I said, look, you know, I got to move on.

I understand.

It was horrible.

Plus, how did you let me go out there and make a fool of myself?

If I said it wouldn't work, would you have believed me?

No.

I can help you in so many ways, Chachi. I'm telling you, there's some things you

got to learn on your own. I learned, all right.

All I got to show for today is a rope burn.

And a court order telling me to stay off campus.

I need those words now more than I've ever needed them in my life.

Can you please get me on my feet again?

Jack?

Yes?

Life is funny.

That's all you got to say?

Oh, come on.

Anything I say now is going to sound like diddly, right? Try it anyway.

It's like a knife right here.

Every song that you played on the way over here reminds you of her. Yes.

Every girl you see looks like her. Yes, but not as pretty.

And you are convinced that the miserable feeling you've got now is going to stay

with you for every day of your life until you are dead.

I hope the part where you help me is coming soon.

It will pass.

I mean, yes, all right, right now, the pain is bigger than you are.

But every day, it's going to hurt a little bit less.

And then you are going to be bigger than the pain.

Until then, will you come to my softball games?

These days are ours.

Share them with me.

These days are ours.

Happy and free.

These happy days are yours and mine.
