There's a time for love and a time for living. Take a chance and face the

An open road and a road that's hidden. A brand new life around the bend.

There were times I lost a dream or two.

And found the trail that at the end was you.

There's a path you take and a path not taken.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

Not so long, but you might await me to a brand new life.

Brand new life. A brand new life for ground to be.

Whoa, Angela.

You look fantastic.

And you look... Is that what you're going to wear?

What? The socks are on?

I knew it.

No, I just thought a jacket and tie were required at Les Toiles. Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't mention it, but I canceled that reservation and made one at the Boar's

Head Pub.

The Boar's Head Pub for a blind date? No, I chose Les Toiles because of it.

Ambience. Well, the boss head pub is loaded with ambience. You can throw your

peanut shells right on the floor.

Sounds charming. I hope they have spittoons.

Oh, yeah. Real ones. Brass.

Now, Angela, now, wait a minute. Now, wait a minute. We have to give Lyle and

Christy a good example. We've got to make believe that we get along.

I sure hope this works. You think fixing them up was a good idea.

Are you kidding me? Your cousin? My old buddy?

It's in the bag. Watch out. Okay.

Just a little nervous about tonight. You know, we've never done anything like

this before.

Well, look, look, look. If sparks fly, that's terrific.

But if they don't, hey, at least we gave romance a shot, eh?

And it's about time, too, after three years of heavy breathing.

On my part.

You two crazy kids!

I want you both to know that you have my approval.

What do you mean? Us? Oh, you thought we were going out?

No.

Well, I should have known better.

Angela, you better not wait too long. You're going to be out of warranty.

Your information, Mother, we're fixing up Tony's friend Lyle with Christy.

Lyle?

Christy? Oh, wait a minute. What's wrong with Christy? What's wrong with Lyle?

He's such a fungus.

Fungus?

I ever talked about is sports and medicine.

Well, maybe that's because she's a sports doctor.

What a lame excuse.

You think he's bad? Wait till you see Christy. She's 30 and had three dates.

That's a date a decade.

A decade?

Mother, how could you insult her like that? She's a member of our family.

Well, so are you, dear.

Guys, it'll work out.

You know what they say.

Nerds of a feather.

Now, wait a minute. This is her first date in the 80s? It's her second date.

didn't have any dates in the 60s.

Oh, great. She's on a roll.

Some people are a little discriminating about the kind of fungus they go out

with.

Fungus. Fungus.

Fungus. Hey, Doc, how are you? Come on in here. All right, Angela, I want you

meet Dr. Lyle M .D .P. PhD, and all -around fun guy.

Fun guy.

So I've heard.

So, Lyle, come on, sit down. How was your day? Tell me about it. Oh, it was a

killer. It's the playoffs.

I had to repair four defensemen and two goalies, although the last game was

rather interesting.

I mean, the player was diagnosed as having a sprained patella posterior,

After careful examination, I realized what he had was a hairline fracture in

metatarsal. All right.

Amazing. I wonder who that could be. I heard

great things about this gal. This is her decade.

Christy.

You look great.

I do? Yeah. Hi, Christy. I'm Tony. Nice to meet you, and I want you to meet...

Come here. Come here, Doc.

I want you to meet Lyle Everett, world -famous jock doc.

You kidding me?

Hi.

Hi. Are they getting along or what?

I'm sorry I'm late. Oh, no, you're not late. As a matter of fact, you're a

little early. Oh, my too early traffic was light. I'm sorry.

No, no.

It's okay. Look, relax. No problem. I'm apologizing too much, aren't I? I'm

sorry.

Well, okay.

Okay. Look, hey.

Hey, we still got some time before we have to leave. So why don't we sit down

and have some more laughs, huh?

Tony. Tony.

Maybe we should let Lyle and Christy sit there. It's more conversational. Oh,

yeah. Good point. Go right ahead. Sit down.

So, Christy, you know, Lyle here is one of the foremost physicians in sports

medicine, and he had a very fascinating day. Tell us about it, Lyle.

A guy had a busted foot, and I fixed it.

Isn't this great? This is fabulous.

Isn't this fun? Good fun, good conversation, and a nice good beginning.

What are you doing up so early?

Well, I got enough sleep last night on the date.

Oh.

Come on.

It wasn't that bad.

I saw the way he put his arms around her.

Angela, that was the Heimlich maneuver.

She was choking on a mouthful of mutton.

Well, he maneuvered her very tenderly. Tony, if you looked closely, you could

see they were really connecting.

What connecting? Are you kidding me? They said three things to each other all

night. Hello, goodbye, and I'm choking.

We've got something we can't wait to tell you. But if this is a bad time, we

come back later.

Come in, come in.

Go ahead, Lyle.

Tell them. No, no, go on, you tell them.

Okay.

You better tell them. No, no, you tell them. Hey, why don't you guys flip a

coin? No, would you just please tell me?

Well... Whoa!

Those are some serious carrots.

Oh, just a couple of ligament operations.

He braced me up.

I knew it! I knew it! I just knew I was right!

Oh, gosh, you guys really move fast here.

Come on, sit down. Tell me about it. What happened, Doc?

Oh, something wonderful.

Something magical.

She sprained her ankle.

Was that when you tripped on the spittoon? No, not that time. In the cab

home, my foot got tangled up in the seat belt.

Sounds like Kismet.

No, Kismet was three hours later when her ankle swelled and she called me.

he made a house call.

Well, well, well.

Then what'd you do, buddy?

Well, I applied a cold compress, and then I elevated her leg. Now, Lyle,

mean, between you and Christy, what happened?

Oh, we just started talking and laughing, and we stayed up all night. We

know each other, and, oh, she's a great schoolteacher.

She's just, she's got finger -painting antidotes that'll slay you.

Oh, gosh, congratulations.

Welcome to the family, cousin.

I knew deep down inside, I knew this would work out.

Well, very deep down, I had a feeling.

All right, here we go now. Smile, dear.

I am smiling.

You are a lovely bride.

Thank you.

Mother. Oh, yeah, ditto.

So, dear, do you have any questions for your Aunt Mona about what happens after

the wedding?

Oh, no. No questions.

Lyle and I have a book.

Oh, good.

Does it have pop -up pictures?

A minute 30 and he

gets nailed?

What's going to happen now? I think it's going to be a mad rush to the bathroom.

It's a commercial. Thank God.

Well, here is the official photographer.

Ready to preserve all of those precious memories.

You want a picture of me and my best man?

No, later. Here, take a picture of me and my hockey players.

Jean -Claude and Pierre, ooh la la.

All right, stay free.

Free.

Thank you.

It's time to begin.

As I was saying, the bride is ready. It's time to begin.

Maybe she's right. Hey, how can we start? The organist isn't even here yet.

Hi,

I'm the organist. Good, you're just in time.

uncomfortable right here.

All right, Ants. All right, Ants. It's over. It's over in four. In three,

Oh, no! He scored!

He's a fucking death!

Tough luck, Mom.

Your wedding is being delayed because of a hockey game.

Oh, Laya loves hockey.

It's okay.

No, it is not okay.

Well, he is giving up the Rangers game at the garden tonight.

I think it's the most important day of your life.

Well, that's true.

It should not be put on a back burner because of some Neanderthal sport that's

played with a puck and a stick.

I never thought of it that way. Well, think about it. If you want me to.

Christine, Lyle is taking you for granted.

You have got to stand up for your needs. Sudden death is no way to start a

marriage. Maybe you're right.

Of course I'm right. This is your wedding day.

Men know how to take the romance out of everything and we let them get away with

it. Why do we do that? I don't know.

Well, we shouldn't. Good girl.

Christine, where are you going?

To give Lyle a piece of my mind.

Now?

No, you do that after the wedding.

You call that a body check?

Well, it's not my way of doing it.

Would you stop?

Christy.

Oh, oh, hey, that's a high -stakes rep. Did you see that?

Lyle, I'm ready to get married now.

Me too, sweetheart, me too.

Oh.

Okay, sweetheart.

Oh, McPhee!

McPhee can really take it.

What? What?

Kyle, you're ignoring my needs.

Sudden death is no way to start a marriage.

Honey,

honey, can we just wait till this is over?

Come on.

It's over.

Oh!

It's just a little... delay. Don't do anything you're going to regret.

Angela, he's putting the most important day of my life on the back burner for

this Neanderthal sport.

Goodbye.

And thank you for a lovely afternoon.

Poor guy.

Hope he's alright. He'd look so depressed when he left. You ain't

wouldn't even stay for the post -game show.

Maybe he really wasn't meant for marriage after all.

I guess maybe it runs in his family. You know, his mother wasn't married either.

Hey, wait a minute. If she wasn't married, then where'd he come from?

St. Louis.

Oh.

I just can't get over it. I mean, one minute...

Christy was a shrinking violet. The next minute she was Sigourney Weaver.

It's really weird.

When I left her alone upstairs there with Angela, she just seemed...

We

should have known. I tried to light a fire under her. I didn't think she'd

explode. Well, you can thank your lucky stars my sister is dead.

Otherwise, you'd have a lot of explaining to do.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing.

What did you say?

Nothing.

But now that you mentioned it, Angela, I would be remiss if I didn't say that

I'm a bit disappointed in you.

You're disappointed in me?

Yes. Yeah, I mean, well, for someone who loves romance so much, you certainly

clubbed it to death.

Me? I mean, I'm the one who planned this entire wedding.

And I was looking forward to a beautiful day where we could share the joy of

sending two people off on a wonderful life together.

And what happened? What happened? I'll tell you what happened. You tore them

asunder.

Tony, if anyone tore them asunder, it was you and that dumb hockey game.

Tony.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but you have become totally

insensitive.

Well, how can I take that the wrong way?

All I know is you've changed.

You're not the same man who used to bring home flowers.

Not for me, for the house.

Well, that was back in the days when you were much more considerate. Like, you'd

be late and you'd call me. I mean, 20 minutes is nothing to you, but it means

lot to a roast.

the last time you baked me chocolate chip cookies with walnuts. You know

my favorites.

I make them all the time. You just eat too fast to notice.

Well, how would you know?

You're always running off to some athletic event or some parent's

meeting. And what about you? With all the work you bring home, I mean, you

hardly have any time left to talk to me.

Well, excuse me for being a professional. Well, excuse me for being

You're excused. Thank you. You're welcome.

Hey, look what I found.

Did I come in a bad time? Yes.

I can come back later. No, no.

Come in.

I have to talk to Lyle. Well, you could if he was here.

Oh, no. He left?

I love that man.

I have to tell him. I've got to tell him fast. Otherwise, he's liable to find

another woman.

I think you've got a few minutes.

I didn't know that hockey was so musical. It's like the ice capades. Oh,

yeah, yeah.

You see that person out there with no teeth? That's Dorothy Hamill.

There he is.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Now, now, now, wait a minute, Angela.

Wait a minute, pal. You know what happened last time you tried to help?

let me handle this. You stay right here.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Sorry, I ain't allowed to say.

Oh, I'm sorry. There's no more empty seats. Oh, here's one.

Lyle, I think we have to have a talk. Yeah, now look, Lyle, listen to her,

because this could be the most important conversation of your whole life. And by

the way, what's the score?

Ranger, 3 -1. All right, Rangers!

Lyle, I'm sorry I walked out on you.

You're sorry?

No, no.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry? Look, look, you're both sorry, okay? Angela, could you shift

weight just a little bit? Sorry.

I really appreciate you coming down here and everything.

Oh, my pleasure.

Can we get married now?

I don't know. See, I've been thinking.

I think maybe it's better that the wedding is off. I mean, I'm an essential

sports junkie.

You can do a lot better. Believe me, I can.

Oh, my.

I've been alone all the years. Maybe I should stay this way. No, no, no, no,

no. Alone is bad. Together is good. Angela, could you give me a little room

here? Oh, what Tony is trying to say is that living under the same roof with

someone special just makes life better.

Well, not always.

I mean, sometimes you have a fight.

But then you wake up in the morning and they're there for you.

Unless they left early.

But maybe they left you a note on the refrigerator.

But even if they didn't... Would you please bottom line this, Angela?

Alone is bad. Together is good.

Are you just saying that? No, no.

I mean it.

Yeah, yeah, we both mean it.

Maybe we should leave them alone.

Oh, unless, of course, you want to watch the hockey game.

No.

I can do that anyhow.

Let's go read the book.

Jesus.

Jesus. Jesus.

It's not necessary when you're going to be four minutes late.

Well, four minutes can mean a lot to a roast.

What is this, June and Ward Cleaver?

No, Mona. We're just trying to be a little bit more sensitive to each

needs. And not take one another for granted. You know, Mother, it wouldn't

if you took other people's feelings into consideration once in a while.

Why?

You made these for Angela? Oh, thank you.

Stay tuned for a show filled with sibling rivalry, love triangles,

and dashing airline pilots.

Cheesy primetime drama?

No. Modern classic sitcom.

Wings is next, right here on Nick at Night.
