Dear diary, boy, are we in a heap of
trouble. It started last week when my

friend Tony Maselli was enlisted to
fight Medicare cutbacks.

Me in Washington? You know, a young man
like you representing us would really

shake Washington up. Tony was so nervous
about his speech to Congress, he lost a

whole night's sleep.

Make that two nights sleep. Tony
Maselli, get in this bed.

Unfortunately, it made him kind of
ornery. The point is, you've all become

bunch of selfish fat cats who've lost
touch with the people.

And a little loony.

That's all, folks.

And he hasn't woke up since.

Shouldn't we wake Dad?

He's been out for 18 hours.

If I slept that long, he'd be checking
me for my vital signs.

Turn off the television and come have
breakfast. But I want to watch Tony.

How do you care? He's still sleeping.

No, he's not. He's tap dancing on TV.

And there I am.

Oh, my Lord, my fly's open.

Oh, wow.

Good morning, everybody.

It was a cloud with the two left feet.

Wait a minute. What am I doing on TV?

thief ban. They cover Congress. And the
occasional hoofing buffoon.

There's one more thing I have to say.

Angela and I did not sleep together last
night.

Please, could you change that? It was
bad enough the first time.

Angela, yo no dormimos juntos anoche.

Boy, when I mess up, I really do it big,
eh? I mean, first I make a fool of

myself and worst of all, I let down all
the senior citizens.

I thought you were great, Tony.

Really? Well, thank you, Billy.

I didn't know you could speak Spanish.

Jonathan. I got it.

I got it.

Hello?

Yes, it is. May I ask who's calling?

Dad, it's Senator Weber.

I don't want to talk to that guy. He's
just going to tune me out about my

speech. Well, what do I say?

Say anything.

He went to France.

Yeah, I could take a message.

You thought his speech was terrific?

That he was a beacon in the night?

A giant among men? Give me that. Give me
that. Bonjour.

Beacon speaking.

That's very nice of you to say, Senator.

I think you got the wrong guy.

Really?

Thank you, sir.

Yes, sir. I'll be here, sir.

Yes, sir. Thank you. Bye -bye, sir.

His aide's on the way up. They want me
to help them lobby against the Medicare

cuts. They want you. Are you sure
they're on our side?

Tony, I think you should work with the
senator.

Oh, come on. I'll probably just do more
harm than good. Tony, your country needs

you. Oh, please.

My country needs me.

Hello. I'm Christine Morrison, and I'm
from Senator Weber's office. And I hope

we can persuade you to work with us.

My country...

Country to the beat.

The choice is up to you, my friend.

Come in, please. Come in. Come in.
Christine, this is Angela. Hello. And

her mother, Mona. And that's my
daughter, Samantha.

Oh,

and this here is Chappy.

I'm a Scorpio.

Really?

Mr. Maselli, your speech touched a lot
of people, including me. You really made

an impression.

So did his face when it hit the floor.

Mother, please, won't you sit down?

Overnight, you have become the Medicare
media darling.

You're kidding.

My grandmother knitted you this.

It's very nice. I'll wear it proudly.

Actually, it's a toilet paper cover.

Good, because, you know, if there's one
thing I hate, it's cold toilet paper.

Tony, we would love to have you on our
team.

There's a strategy luncheon today,
congressmen, lobbyists, and hopefully

Me at a power lunch?

I wouldn't know what to say, you know.
I'm just an ordinary housekeeper from

Connecticut. I would hardly call you
ordinary.

A junior at Ridgemont College, student
teacher, volunteer fireman.

Played for the St. Louis Cardinals for
two seasons minus two weeks for a pulled

groin muscle May 73.

Hey, you know, that's all healed now.
Look, it works good.

Hey, Tony, you have natural charisma. Am
I right?

Oh, yeah.

Now, I have a limo downstairs, and I can
brief you on the way. Wow, a limo, huh?

Really?

Oh, but I can't. I can't because I
promised Andrew and the kids I'd take

the Smithsonian.

Well, I guess it's just you and me,
Christine.

Did I mention I'm an Aquarius?

Tony, you have to. You have to. It's why
we came here.

You think so? Dad, it's a chance of a
lifetime.

Oh, okay. Hey, I'll do it. I'll do it.
Great.

Oh, after you, after you.

And, Angel, look, I'll meet you at the
Smithsonian at 2. Right by Fonzie's

jacket. Okay.

A limo. You know what I like best about
a limo? What? I don't know. I've never

been in one.

Bye -bye.

Bye, Sam.

Bye -bye.

Bye.

Oh,

you're damn cute.

I feel like I walked 400 miles.

You think we're in bad shape? Those
dinosaurs were alive when they started

tour. Here, give me alpaca. Oh, but
carefully sticky.

Okay, I'll hose them down. Oh, wait. Got
it? Yeah.

Oh, my beautiful new blouse.

Broke my heel.

The end of a perfect day.

Are there any messages?

No, I don't see the light flashing.

It's not like Tony not to call. I hope
he's doing okay.

Oh, Chrissy, you're such a nut.

Well, it looks like he's doing okay to
me.

Tony, where were you? Oh, I'm sorry,
Angela, but I was such a hit at the

that they invited me to this private
club.

He was fabulous.

And guess who I got to meet?

General Colin Powell.

And guess what he called me?

Tony.

Imagine that.

Those are new clothes, aren't they? Yes,
I took Tony shopping for a power

outfit. It was incredible, Angela. It
was like a whirlwind of jackets, ties,

shirts. I felt like Pretty Woman.

Oh, that's probably the office
confirming our meeting for tomorrow.

Busy, busy, busy.

Yuppie, yuppie, yuppie.

Tony, you're meeting with Christine
again tomorrow?

Oh, yeah. She invited me to this very
important meeting. It's about the

cuts, and the press is going to be
there.

Tony, they approved your helicopter
ride. Oh, boy! A chopper!

Hey,

wait a minute. I better go mousse my
hair. You know how I look when I get out

a convertible.

I'll be back.

I have to tell you, Tony is a breath of
fresh air.

Yes, isn't he?

You don't meet a lot of people like him
up on the hill.

Everyone is so jaded jumping from one
glamorous affair to another.

You're so lucky you don't have to go
through that.

You know, it's very hard to be glamorous
with kids around.

wanted to have a family, but with my
career, there's no way.

Not everyone can handle having both, but
I have a family and a big ad agency in

New York.

Works out great.

Well, I'm sure I could handle that, too,
if I had a guy like Tony.

Oh, hey.

Let's get that bird in the air.

Oh, and if Senator Vassell happens to
call...

Here's the number for my portable phone.

Thank you.

Hey, Angela, Angela, look.

I'll try to get the pilot to buzz the
hotel, okay?

Go by the window. Go by the window. Oh,
okay.

Yes.

Angela, who are you calling?

I'm sending a hundred pizzas to her
purse.

This is only one. of three White House
kitchens.

And it's not unusual to find President
Bush himself grabbing an occasional

from the refrigerator.

Look, it's him. It's President Bush. Oh,
no way. I have to get a picture.

Dad. Hey, Dad, what do you say? Small
world, huh? Hey, come on in. Make

yourselves at home.

Oh, it's okay. You go there with me.

Come on in.

Tony.

What are you doing in the presidential
kitchen?

Well, Christine had a great idea, you
know? I mean, I'm a housekeeper, right?

what better place for a photo shoot than
the presidential kitchen?

I'm hungry. Oh, you are, are you? Well,
that's good, because right over there in

that other freezer are some terrific
pudding pops. Go ahead, go have some.

Quail won't mind.

Tony, you're having your picture taken
with President Bush?

Close.

Millie.

The president's dog?

Yeah, that's right, that's right. Millie
will get me publicity.

And when Tony Maselli gets publicity,
Medicare cuts get publicity.

Watch this great trick I taught her. You
ready? You ready for this?

Millie. Millie.

Democrat.

Big girl, big girl.

Oh, hi.

Look who's here.

Invited the whole family down, did you?
No, actually, we were on the tour, and

we'd be happy to get out of your way.

Let me put my chair down.

Here, let me help you with that. Oh,
sure.

Too tight?

No siree.

Tony, we're going to go back and catch
up with the rest of the tour.

Bye, Dad.

We'll see you back at the hotel for
dinner.

Remember, we've got dinner right after
that interview tonight.

Be right back.

What dinner?

What interview?

Christine got me booked on the Capital
Group.

Oh, the TV show. Yeah, yeah. And then
there's this big dinner afterwards. And

guess who I may finally get to meet?

Diane Sawyer.

Well,

that's great, Tony.

I guess you'll finally have an
opportunity to discuss the Medicare

the TV show. Yes, yes, definitely,
definitely. Although, you know, they

to talk about myself, you know, growing
up in Brooklyn, playing pro ball.

Hey, you know what? I'll do them. I'll
tell them that story about when the guys

put my supporter in the freezer.

I still get chills.

I don't believe it.

Oh, that's because you're not a guy.
It's cold.

You've completely forgotten why you've
come here.

You adopted the same fat cat. That
mentality that you were railing against

Congress. That's ridiculous, Angela. I
still have the values of a common man.

Ooh, pate, my fave.

Oh, oh, excuse me. What was I thinking?
Pate, my fave. Photo shoots, fancy

dinners, riding around in Christine's
limo. Sounds pretty common to me.

So that's what this is all about, huh?
You just can't stand the fact that I'm

spending all my time with her. Oh,
please, Tony, I don't trust her. She's a

user. She's manipulative. I don't like
her, and that's all there is to it.

Oh, well, if you don't believe me, you
don't believe me, you are nothing but a

Democrat.

No, no, Millie, no.

I'm a Republican.

Angela, you're not ready.

I just think I'm going to stay and I
have a little something planned for

Angela, Angela.

What? Oh, yeah, this is a good way to
lure Tony away from Christine.

Gain 150 pounds.

I'm hungry, okay?

Angela, you are regressing. You have not
pigged out like this since your

divorce. I wasn't that bad.

You ate your settlement.

Not the answer.

Believe me, when Matt and I broke up, I
tried eating.

And, oh, sure, it made me feel better
for a little while.

But eventually, I had to deal with the
fact that I would never see him again.

You want those fries?

Come here, Miss Tons of Fun.

Sit down.

Angela, let me be blunt.

This Christine is young, gorgeous, sexy,
and smart.

I feel so much better. You can go now.

Angela, if you don't want to lose Tony,
you better do something. Oh, please.

This is not the first time some pretty
girl has flirted with him. He always

comes back.

And what are you going to do if one day
he doesn't come back?

Angela, when was the last time you told
Tony how you feel about him? I don't

have to tell him. He knows.

Wrong.

You do have to tell him.

And then you have to show him.

And after that, you have to tell him
what you just showed him.

Come on, let's face it, dear.

Men are stupid.

Oh, thank you.

How you doing, Tony?

Nervous? No, no, you're kidding. I'm...
Oh, wow.

Nice threads.

And very few of them.

It's just my regulation party uniform.

Oh, yeah? Well, gee, where do you hang
the campaign?

Mr. Maselli, may I borrow your face for
a minute?

Oh, yeah, sure, sweetheart. But, uh,
hey, listen, go easy on that dark blush.

I've oftentimes been told I'm an autumn
person.

Yeah, I see the leaves are starting to
turn.

But he's a comedian.

Okay, here are some clever ad -libs the
staff wrote up for the interview. Oh,

okay, good, good. Let me see here. Oh,
oh, that's good.

I'm funny, I'm funny. That's good,
that's good.

Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute. Tony
Maselli would never say something like

this. Give this back to the staff, tell
them to punch it up, and tell them,

remember, common man, common man.

Oh, sweetheart, one second.

I think you could pluck my eyebrows
right in here, please.

Right there, yeah.

Let's see what else we got here. Uh
-huh. Oh, that's good.

Oh, that's real good.

Oh, wait a minute. Now, this sounds like
I'm for the cuts.

Well, you are.

What? Ow!

Would you mind moving it a little bit?
Yes, and could you leave my eyebrow?

Oh, Jimmy.

Christine, what's going on here?

Senator Weber owes another very powerful
senator a favor.

So we're repaying that favor by changing
our vote.

What do you mean? We're just going to
flip -flop just like that?

That's politics.

Well, that stinks.

I mean, don't you care about all those
senior citizens out there?

Of course.

But we'll find another way to help them.

If you just play the game.

Remember, one hand washes the other.

Yeah, well.

At least when my hands wash each other,
they're clean.

Tony, if you don't go along with this,
you'll be throwing it all away. The

limousine. I don't care.

The helicopter ride. Big deal.

Diane Sawyer. No Diane Sawyer?

Tony, I like you.

And I think we work great together.

And I'm not just talking professionally.

Oh, and, uh...

I guess I'd be giving that up, too, huh?

Well, I'm sorry, Christine.

Me, too.

Tony, you're off the show.

Let me guess.

You're here on a tour.

No.

I'm here to see Tony.

I've got a newsflash for you, Christine.

I know you're after him.

You're not going to get him.

Tony and I are good together, and
nobody, especially you, is going to get

way.

Do I make myself perfectly clear?

You can have him.

I just told him I'm never going to see
him again.

Oh.

We changed our vote, and he wouldn't.

So I had to play hardball.

I see.

What are you doing?

Playing hardball.

It's for you.

Hi.

Hi, Angel.

It's all over.

I heard.

You must be pretty upset.

It shows, huh?

Yes.

Your mascara's running.

You were right.

I let it get to my head.

I mean, you tried to warn me, but I was
seduced by the glamour, the power, the

limos. The legs.

I didn't even notice.

She has knobby knees. No, she doesn't.

I'm sorry you're not going to get to be
on the TV show.

Well, hey, it's life in Washington, you
know. But I'll tell you something. I'm

not going to stop fighting the Medicare
cuts. I'm going to write a letter to

every one of them senators.

That's the Tony I didn't sleep with.

Come on, Angela. Let's get out of here.
I've had my fill of the hill.

Uh, Tony.

Yeah. This, um... Well, one thing. I
know, I know. Too much blush. I look

Um... You... You know how I feel about
you, don't you?

Oh, yeah, yeah, sure. You know, you know
how...

How do you feel, you know? Yeah, sure.

How do you feel?

Well, I like you.

That's good, Angela, because I like you,
too.

Oh, good.

Well, I just figured I hadn't told you
in a while.

Oh, good.

What was that for?

Well, I told you, and now I'm showing
you.

Oh, I get it.

It's like that game, show and tell.

That's good, because I like that game.

Me too.

Maybe we should play it more often.
