There is more to life than what's your lip. Take a chance and face the wind.

Open road and a road that's hit. Brand new life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

Found a trail.

At the end was you.

There's a path we take and a path not taken. The choice is up to you, my

The nights are long, but you might awake to a brand new life. Brand new life.

Brand new life around the bend.

Hey, Wally. Huh?

Did you catch that new girl at the juice bar?

Wow!

Yeah.

She looks just like my wife, Peggy.

In your dreams.

And by the way, she's your ex -wife.

I mean, you've been divorced six months. Don't you think we should stop talking

about it? You're right, all right, I agree.

My analyst degrees, my dental hygienist degrees.

I just can't help thinking that...

Peggy's going to be coming back to me.

Wally, she's remarried.

Marriages break up, you're no -minded.

Come on, Wally, you've got to get out there. You've got to start circulating.

It's easy for you to say. You were born irresistible.

I wasn't born irresistible.

I had to work at it.

I don't know.

Women just don't seem to find me very attractive.

Peggy must have told me that at least a million times. Would you forget about

Peggy? Peggy is not all women. She is to me.

She was my first girlfriend.

And between us, Tony, she's the first woman I ever... Well, you know, and I

her only man. You mean Peggy Putnam?

Party time.

I want you guys to evaporate, huh?

See what I'm telling you? You got to get out of your shell, start circulating.

How about that girl at the juice bar? No. She was too aggressive, too forward.

Well, if she had to ask you what you wanted, she's the waitress.

You got anybody else?

I got it. I got it. Angela.

She's my boss.

She's real nice. She's smart.

And she is really not bad looking.

Well, why would she want to go out with me then?

Hey, I could talk her into anything. Don't worry.

Well, she's so great.

How come you don't go out with her?

She's got a weak heart.

I can't believe I'm doing this. I hate blind dates. Oh, come on, Angela. You're

going to have a great time with Wally. Hey, he's a prince of a guy. And

underneath it all, he's got a great personality.

Well, you look really warm, dear.

Where's he taking you, Norway?

No, Mother, we're going to play miniature golf.

What kind of lame -o comes up with an idea like miniature golf?

Actually, that was my idea.

Does that answer your question?

Mother, it's a perfect blind date. You're always on your feet, and if the

tries anything funny, you've got a club in your hand.

Hey, listen, guys, listen. You know, Wally's kind of rusty at this date and

stuff. I don't think he needs a reception committee. Come on. Oh, come

We just want to check him out. Yeah, we won't say anything.

We just dare.

Come on, let's go. Let's hit it. Let's move it. Let's do it. We'll go.

We'll go.

Oh, golly. Well, I mean, you can't have any fun around here.

Tony, would it be too late to call Wally and say I died?

I guess so.

Yeah, no, no, no, no. Come on, come on.

This is going to be really good for Wally, going out with a woman like you.

A woman like me?

Most guys would have fixed him up with a dog.

Thank you, Tony.

Sort of.

Hey, Wally.

Hey, y 'all, right on time and looking really beige.

Come on in.

Wally, this is Angela. Angela, this is Wally. Hi.

Hi.

She doesn't want to go out with me.

Of course I do.

Okay. Here.

Oh, thank you.

Oh!

A wrist corsage!

I know that flowers aren't exactly right for miniature golf, but Peggy, that's

my wife. Ex -wife.

Right. You're absolutely right. My ex -wife. The greatest woman I've ever

in my entire life. She just loved flowers.

I can't believe she's gone.

Uh, Wally.

Wally? Huh?

Uh, if you would like to call this off, I really would understand.

No, no, no, no, no. He's raring to go. He's raring to go. Right, right. I won't

let you down.

I will get you for this.

Thank you. I had a wonderful time. Good night.

You said wonderful.

That's the exact word I was going to use.

Wonderful.

There it is again.

From now on, Angela, that's going to be our word.

How sweet.

Thank you and good night. Wait a minute.

I was wondering, when can I see you again?

I mean, tomorrow?

Friday? Saturday? Sunday? Monday? Tuesday? Wednesday?

You know, this is a time when you should be seeing a lot of women. You're still

recovering from your divorce. No.

You are the one for me.

I haven't felt like this since the night I met and proposed to Peggy.

Wonderful.

Wonderful.

Hey,

Angela, how'd it go?

Not wonderful.

Oh, how was it? Pretty bad. Did you have a good time?

Horrible. Hi, Mom.

It was awful, okay? It was the worst night of my life.

I'm wondering about the miniature golf.

Oh, come on, Angela. Couldn't have been that bad.

You're wrong.

I'm sure he's a very nice guy, but he's just a little too pathetic.

I mean, he is so desperate. One date and the guy thinks he's in love with me.

That is desperate.

Angela, come on. Angela, wait. He needs another chance.

It's like a guy who fell off a horse. He's having trouble getting back in his

saddle. Well, you know what I mean.

That's right, dear. I mean... What is one more bad date in your life?

No.

No. Never again.

Absolutely not. Forget it.

I think she's coming around.

Oh, yeah.

Wally? All right.

Wally. Is Angela gone?

Yeah, she just left for work.

Did she tell you anything at all about her date?

Well, she filled me in on the highlights.

Tony, it was magic.

We were made for each other.

You sure you two are on the same date?

Hey, Tony?

Yeah?

Is it Angela's toast?

I think so.

I can hardly wait to kiss her. Now, come on. Sit down and tell me everything

about her. Everything.

Well, all right. Look, she's five foot seven. She's a Gemini.

And she never wants to see you again.

I figured, you know.

Peggy was a Gemini. Oh, but you're just fucking with Peggy. Good morning, Tony.

Oh, sorry.

I didn't realize you had company. Mona, this is Wally.

Yeah, Wally, this is Mona, Angela's mother.

You're Wally? Yeah. Well, my goodness, I've heard so much about you.

All of it terrible, I'm sure. Your daughter just dumped me.

Oh, come on, Wally. Don't take it so hard.

Listen, I've got to run down to the cleaners.

You want to take a ride with me?

No, I couldn't be in the same car with Angela's clothes.

I'm just going to go home and watch my wedding on videotape. No, no, no, no.

Not that.

Not that. Look, stay here with Mona, okay?

That's right. You really should not be alone at a time like this.

Stay and have a cup of coffee. Finish your toast. Mona, thank you. Hey, buddy,

see you later, all right? Yeah, yeah.

You know, I should have expected this.

Why would a woman like Angela be interested in a loser like me?

You're not a loser.

Stop playing with your food.

Wally, you have a lot of...

Potential. I do?

Yes. Trust me.

Wally, you are a diamond in the rough.

I'm a lump of coal.

Oh, Wally, don't worry. You're gonna be great.

Because you got the best coach in the business.

Hi, Tony. Hi, Angela. Listen, before you say another thing, I'm real sorry about

last night. I never should have made you go out with Wally.

Oh, Tony.

You know, it's funny.

All day I'm at work with confident, good -looking men who say the right things

and wear the right clothes. And you know what?

It got me thinking about Wally.

Our Wally? Yeah.

Yeah, you know, he's nothing like those men.

You can say that again.

And, Tony, last night... Last night wasn't so bad.

I mean, the wrist corsage, although totally inappropriate, was rather sweet.

I was the only one at Put -In -Palace wearing one.

And when he stepped in the water hazard, I mean, most guys would have quit.

He hung his socks on the windmill and he played on through.

I mean, the guy has a certain... Nerdy charm?

Exactly.

Well, Angela, you know, he was here this morning, old Wally, and...

And he's wild about you. He would die for you.

Really?

Oh, there's something sort of appealing about that.

And, you know, I do know what he's going through. It's very, very tough dating

again after a divorce. Yeah, yeah. That's why you'd be so perfect for him.

Anza, this time, could you try to be a little more, um, fun?

Huh?

I'm fun.

Yeah.

Hey, Wally, what's up?

I am, Tony. I'm walking on air.

Well, I can see that, eh? I like the new threads.

Yeah, oh, yeah. Well, I'm trying to change my image.

Well, good change.

Very good change.

Oh. Hi, Angela.

Hi, Wally. Hi.

You know, Wally, as it turns out, I'm going to be free on Saturday night.

Or even tonight, if you'd like to do something. Oh, yeah. Well, actually,

tomorrow would be a lot better for me, because tonight I...

I have plans, okay?

You... You have plans?

Well, there you are, gorgeous.

Wait a minute.

Hey, Wally, now you're going out with Mona?

Yes, isn't life strange?

I didn't realize you two even knew each other. You know, the Tony introduce

the... What?

I said Mona, this is Wally. Wally, this is Mona.

You called that an introduction?

Could I have a word with you, sir? Sure, what's on your mind? Inside.

Wally, what is going on?

What, you thought I said date lots of other women? I didn't mean in the same

house.

Mother, what... be prying too much to ask you why you stole my date.

I didn't steal him, dear.

I thought you didn't want him anymore.

Really? Who would ever give you that idea?

You did.

You said that it was the worst night of your life. I thought I was doing you a

favor. Oh, thank you, mother.

But I've decided to go out with Wally again.

Oh, well, that's nice, dear.

Don't wait up.

You bet. And it won't be the worst night of my life.

Come on, Wally. Let's blow this pop stand.

Good night,

Tony. Good night, Angela. I'll see you tomorrow.

Can you believe my mother?

Poor Wally.

Poor, vulnerable Wally.

Shattered by a divorce, on the rebound from me, he falls right into her

clutches.

That's one way of looking at it.

Is that Grandma leaving with Wally? Yes, boy.

You're right, Sam.

Wally dumped Mom for Grandma.

That's just another way of looking at it.

We'll just see who gets dumped.

Oh, what are you going to do? You're going to break the date with Wally?

No. I'm going to keep the date with Wally.

I'm going to take your advice.

Now you're talking. Take my advice.

What advice was that?

You said I should be more fun.

Well, I'm going to be so damn much fun, Wally's not going to see straight for a

week.

Good evening.

Check it out?

I hope I grow into that.

Angela,

that ain't a dress. That's a weapon.

Sis, just grab the first thing I saw in the closet and throw it on.

You've been getting dressed for an hour and a half.

The zipper was stuck.

Hello, dear.

My goodness, you look nice.

Oh, your dress is ripped.

Oh, Mother, what a lovely sweater you have clinging to you like a long -lost

relative.

Yeah, you know, you do. You both look terrific. Really, terrific.

Mother, did you come over here to show off your sweater?

Or is there something you want? Well, I borrowed Wally's jacket last night.

Late last night, and I just thought I'd bring it over and thank him.

I can thank him. I don't think you can really thank him the way I can.

Girls!

Ladies!

How about if I thank him and he gets it in one piece? Now, what is going on

here? Well, my mother has clearly set her cap for Wally, and I'm afraid she's

going to be disappointed because it's obvious that he is quite interested in

After last night, I doubt that he even remembers her.

And after tonight, I doubt he'll ever forget.

Hey, uh, you want me to get that or you two want to duke it out?

Hey, Wally. Hi, Tony.

Hi, Wally.

Hi, Angela.

Hello, Wally.

What a pretty dress.

Well, thank you.

Hi, Wally.

What a great sweater.

All right, look, you two have a good time. Go ahead. Did you see that

Well, it's just you and me tonight. Let's party.

Well, before you go, wouldn't anyone like a drink?

I would.

Well, it is parody. I mean, let the good times roll.

Well, Angela, you dropped him. I picked him up.

Finders, keepers, losers, weepers. Oh, well, that's real mature, Mother.

I saw him first, and I've got dibs.

What is going on here? Come on. I mean, Wally's a nice guy, but there's plenty

of fish in the sea. And anyway, isn't Wally the type we usually throw back?

Wally is not a fish. He's a sweet, vulnerable man.

That's right.

And all he needs is a little help to get over his divorce. And that's why he

needs me, because I've been through it and I understand his pain. And that's

he needs me. So he can have some fun and forget the pain. He needs me. He needs

me. Hey, you.

The only one that knows what Wally needs is Wally.

Why don't we leave it up to Wally?

Fine. Good.

And may the best woman win.

She would stoop to blatant sexuality.

I'm Nigel Amisalia.

Wear the camisa, boys, when you need them.

Tony, you're not going to believe this. They want me to choose between them.

I know.

How did this happen?

I don't know.

Maybe what I've been telling you all along is true, that underneath it all,

you're a terrific guy.

You just needed some confidence.

And now I got it.

Thanks to you, dude.

Give me five.

You know, I've been thinking this over.

I mean, why should I have to choose between them?

Maybe there's a lot of other women out there who want to crack at Wild Wally.

Now you're Wild Wally?

You like it?

Listen, I don't want to hurt their feelings. Tony, could you do it for me?

Come on.

All right.

All right, wild man.

Go ahead. Go break some locks. Break some locks for me. Thanks. All right.

know, I wish I was still married to Peggy because I could dump her, too.

That's great, huh?

Oh, John.

Where's Wally? Yeah.

He has to make a decision.

Yeah. Well, Wally made the only decision he could make. He decided to leave.

Why?

Well, uh, he was overwhelmed.

Overwhelmed with the thought of having to choose between two such loving and

caring ladies such as yourself.

He asked me to tell you that and hoped you would understand.

Oh, we understand all right.

Really? Yeah.

We both got dumped.

Finger.

Tony.

Just for the sake of argument, who would you have chosen?

Just for the sake of not arguing, I won't say.

Well, you know, Mother, I think he would have chosen you.

Because you're fun and you're vivacious and you're outgoing.

Well, that's true.

But I think he would have chosen you because you're sympathetic and you're

understanding.

And you are sensational in that dress.

Thank you, Mother. You are stunning as usual. Thank you.

Friends again. I love it. Friends.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I'm sorry, too, darling.

I'm sorry I stole your boyfriend.

Oh, Mother.

You steal my boyfriend.

We all know if I wanted to, I could get him back like that.

In a pig's eye.

I get the mug. You get me bikinis. We'll settle this like we should.
