We're going to find our way

Together,

taking the time each day

To learn all about those things you just
can't find.

To build a home together, you have to
get good.

You should just go over there and talk
to her.

I don't want to bother her. Come on. See
that uniform?

She goes to the Eastman Academy.

So? It's an all -girls school.

You know what they say about those
girls.

Yeah.

What?

No.

All day, every day, without men.

They're really lonely.

If you know what I mean.

Then I'd better get right on over there.

Hi.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing. Nothing. I was just trying
to... Hey, forget it. I'm sorry. It's

going to happen again.

Hey, wait a minute.

I'm sorry. Come on, sit down.

My name's Jeannie. What's yours?

Rick.

I'm really sorry that I'm being rude,
but, you know, a lot of guys, they have

this idea that if you go to an all
-girls school, that you're an easy

What?

No, that's disgusting.

You know, I've seen you in here before.

You remembered me, huh?

It was hard not to. You sat on my
girlfriend's pizza.

Hey, don't worry about it. I thought it
was kind of cute.

Well, that's why I did it.

Oh, gosh, I gotta go.

Maybe I'll see you around sometime.

Yeah, listen, I was just going myself.

Can I walk you home?

I guess I'll be okay.

Great, I'll be right back.

She wants me to walk her home.

Wow.

Must be lonelier than I thought.

Let's go.

Excuse me, sir?

Uh, this is Lyle. He's our chauffeur.

Hello, Lyle.

Does he drive the cars or carry them?

Hey, hey, Dax, what's the good news?

Your company is about to collapse.

Hope you don't have any bad news.

The picket line goes up tomorrow.

What? It's not definite yet. The union
said they won't go lower than 10%. I

them they'd have to settle for 6%. And?

They told me to blow it out my
briefcase.

I swear, I've never met such a bunch of
uncouth, unreasonable, uncivilized...

Well, Dexter, I know the union's tough
to work with sometimes, but, you know,

there was a time when the workers didn't
have any protection at all. Bad working

conditions, exploitive bosses.

Yeah, the good old days.

We'll have Kate go down and talk to
them. Last time this happened, she did

well. You just have to know how to
approach them.

Appeal to their sense of fairness. Treat
them as equals.

And wear a sexy blouse.

Works for me.

All's fair in love and labor disputes.
I'll go get changed.

I'll get some coffee.

Hi, Kate.

Boy, did you guys look outside?

I mean, really, look. It's gorgeous.

Bright blue sky, big bubbly clouds. What
a day.

New girlfriend, right?

Dexter, not just the girl. The girl I've
asked to the prom.

You've known Jeannie four days. You're
going to take her to the prom?

Yeah, if it's okay with Lyle. Who's
Lyle?

Her chauffeur.

He's more like a bodyguard than a
chauffeur. You see, when I walk home

school, he drives that limo ten feet
behind us the whole way. A Rolls Royce

doing five miles an hour.

Maybe he needs a tune -up.

I've got to go. I've got a date with
Jeannie. And I hate to keep Lyle

Bye. Have a good time, son.

Listen, Edward, you better go over these
papers with me. Yeah, let me get my

notes.

So, who is this girl that she has on
chauffeur? Her father must be loaded.

Name's Bolins. Joe Bolins, I think Rick
said. You know the name?

Oh, my Lord.

What's with you?

Bolins. I do know that name. He bought
the old Kimberley mansion.

Edward, there are rumors going around
that he may be connected.

Connected?

To what?

You know.

What's that?

He's got ties to the mob.

Oh. Come on, no way. I'm telling you, I
heard rumors.

Oh, these rumors from the same source
that told you that Lonnie Anderson was

actually a man?

That has yet to be disproved.

Do you remember Charlie Younger, the man
who owned the big wine meatpacking

plant? Charlie Younger? Yeah, I remember
reading something about him. Joe Bolins

made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
Now it's the big B meatpackers, and no

one's seen Charlie Younger since.

Well, Dex, maybe he just...

Left the country.

You can believe what you like, but I
know I'm never eating another hot dog

as long as I live.

Come on, Rick. Here's your grape. It's
your turn.

This is stupid.

Alfonso did it.

Yeah, I wrecked my case.

Come on, please.

All right.

Sorry, Lyle.

Isn't it kind of creepy to have him
follow you everywhere?

You'll get used to it.

Yeah, he's great at the beach in case
you want some shade.

Come on, don't pick on Lyle. I mean, he
helped me choose my dress.

Lyle.

I bet it's beautiful.

You know, it is. It's all satiny with
lots of ruffles and it'll look great

your black tux.

No, I'm wearing a plaid tux.

Plaid? Yeah, it's going to be a real
goof.

Goof? Yeah.

I don't want to look like some geek
that's serious about dressing up. Oh,

saying I'm a geek.

Oh, come on. I'm talking about guys.

Girls are supposed to get crazy about
that stuff.

Crazy? Oh, so now I'm crazy.

Jeannie, you know what I mean.

Yeah. You think this problem is all a
big joke and that my feelings don't

matter. No, not at all.

Good. Then you'll wear the black tie.

Boy, you don't give up, do you?

Isn't this embarrassing?

This is good.

You know, you do this a lot. What? Tell
me what to do. I do not. Yes, you do.

Every time we go to the movies, you've
got to pick it. We've only gone to one

movie. And who picked it?

Shattered Hearts and Broken Dreams.

I like that movie.

And so did Lyle.

Well, maybe you should get him to wear a
black tux.

Look, if it's too much trouble, you
don't have to take me.

That's right, I don't.

Well, don't.

Okay, I won't.

That's fine with me. Me too.

Fine. Fine. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Now, Fred, if the strike should happen,
and it won't because Kate's going to

handle it, but if worse comes to worse,
how long do you think Eddie Toys could

hold out?

Fred, this isn't a laughing matter.

Hi, Dad. Oh, Rick, good. I need to talk
to you.

Can I please wait? I'm not in the mood.
Well, this is kind of important.

What is it?

Well, son, you know I'm not one to
meddle in your private affairs. Oh, no.

But sometimes a parent has to speak up.

Take, for instance, Jeannie.

Dad, you can forget Jeannie. We've
broken up. We're through.

Really?

I'm sorry to hear that.

Yeah.

So what about her?

I just wanted to say that sometimes I
have to meddle.

And this isn't one of them.

I hope you don't feel too bad.

No, no, no. I don't feel bad. I feel
good because I did the right thing.

Good for you.

And now I'm going upstairs and getting
myself another date for that prom.

That's my son. Get right back up on that
horse.

I'm going to call Sheila Becker. She'll
go with me. Good idea.

Wait a minute, Rick.

This Sheila, what does her father do for
a living?

He's a florist.

Perfect.

Have a nice day?

First, they were rude.

Then they were obnoxious. Then they were
impossible.

Oh, I know those guys can be pretty
difficult. What guys?

To send a woman in to negotiate for
them.

Blouse didn't work, huh?

I'll get it.

Hello?

Yes, this is Mrs. Stratton.

Oh, hello, Mr. Bolins.

What? Jeannie came home crying?

Because Rick wouldn't take her to the
prom?

Uh -oh.

Well, what makes you think it was his
fault?

What? You're being ridiculous.

Oh, you would, would you? Well, that
would be just fine.

That would be even better.

What would be even better?

Joe Bowens is on his way over to talk to
you.

What? What?

Sheila Becker is going to the prom with
Brad.

So you don't have another date yet?

It seems like every girl in this town
has taken.

Except Jeannie.

Wait a second, Dex. Dexter.

Well, it's not a very good one. I don't
know.

Maybe it's not so bad if I wore regular
black tux. Black tuxes are so nice.

Jeannie really was looking forward to
that prom, guys.

Well, who wouldn't? Proms are so much
fun.

Isn't that right, Kate?

I don't know. I always thought they were
boring.

Oh, what do you know?

I guess I could go see her and try to
patch things up. Well, I don't know,

No, no, no, no. Dad, I made up my mind
now. I'm going over there and

apologizing.

That was close.

Why should I apologize?

I wasn't wrong. She was.

Detailed. Detailed.

Dexter, I wasn't the one telling her
what to wear or how to act.

Well, that's true, but... That does
sound awfully pushy.

If I go over there now, she'll think she
can just walk all over me. So?

Dexter, it's her fault as much as mine.
Why isn't she apologizing to me, right?

Well, yeah.

Thanks, Dad. I'm glad you agree.

I'm dead.

I know.

Thanks for your support.

You have my complete support, Edward. I
mean, after all, at times like this,

friends have got to stick together.

Oops, sorry, got to run. It's out.

Fair weather, friend.

Come on, Kate.

Stratton, father of Rick. Well, of
course I'm Rick's father. I'm sure as

not his mother.

Hello there.

Who are you?

Joe Bowens. How you doing? Good to see
you.

Oh!

I thought you were him.

I guess a lot of people make that
mistake.

No.

Of course not. Why would they?

Toy business.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, it looks like the toy business is
a good business to get into. Oh, yeah,

it's a pretty terrible business.

Kids don't like toys anymore.

Last year was a terrible year, almost
worse, as bad as this year.

You know, I heard you were having some
labor problems.

Massive labor problems. Big, big labor
problems.

Well, I wouldn't worry too much about
that. You know, those things have a way

of... working themselves out.

They do?

Take my word for it.

The main thing here, the main thing is
to be reasonable.

Now, I'm sure my genie would feel a lot
better if she knew that Rick was willing

to make the first step here, which I'm
sure he'll be willing to do once he gets

the proper guidance and advice in this
matter, if you follow what I'm saying.

You want me to order Rick to apologize
to her?

I know we could talk.

Well,

maybe not.

Mr. Bolins, I think we have a problem
here.

Edward, could I speak to you?

And this is Mrs. Stratton.

That's right.

We spoke on the phone.

Nice blouse.

Mr. Bolins.

I don't think you're going to want to
hear this.

Excuse me.

Yeah, hello.

For you.

Thank you.

Hello?

Yeah, hi, Lenny. How you doing?

Hold on.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to have to take this.

That's okay. I need to speak to Edward
anyway. We'll be in the kitchen.

So you sell the boat?

What do you mean he wants to take it for
a ride first? He can see that it

floats, can't he?

I just talked to our union
representative.

They're ready to settle. The last thing
I need right now is that they are.

They agreed to 6 %?

You know, I'm even better than I
thought.

Can I have a raise?

Honey, that's great!

Ha! That's right.

No, it isn't. It's terrible.

Terrible? Why?

He forced the union to settle.

Who? Bolins.

I thought it was me.

Well, how do we know he's not just
looking for a free boat ride?

Yeah. Of all the unreasonable,
ungrateful.

Well, listen, if that's how he feels,
you're going to have to take him for a

little ride.

Yeah, the East River's as good a place
as any.

Where were you?

Oh, you were saying?

Saying? Yeah, yeah, you were saying
something that I wasn't going to like

hearing.

That's right. You tell him that word.

What? Well, we have had it up to here
with your arrogant attitude.

Honey. I mean, who the heck do you think
you are anyway?

Going around acting like some sort of
godfather. Kate!

And that goes for you, too.

What's with her? I'm just trying to fix
things for my kid.

I have a little problem with your line
of work.

What are you, a vegetarian?

I mean, you have something against
meatpackers? What?

Meatpackers? Meatpackers don't take
people for rides up the East River.

Well, how else am I going to sell my
boat?

Boat.

I got it.

Oh, Rick.

I am so sorry. I just have this really
bad temper, and I just let it get to

for me.

I was about to say the same thing.

Dad.

Dad?

Well, now, Princess, I can explain.
Don't, Princess, me.

You promised you wouldn't meddle
anymore.

Well, you know, I wouldn't actually call
this meddling. Well, I would. I mean,

don't you think you're enough trouble
with Mom for selling the boat?

Boat? She knows.

Yes.

And you know what she told you about
butting into my personal life.

Listen, you think maybe we could, you
know, talk about this later?

So, this is how things work at your
house, huh?

Don't push it.

Dad,

who's that?

How can I make it up to you? You just
tell me what to do and I'll do it.

Well, you can start by apologizing to
Mrs. Stratton.

Look, I have no idea what's going on
here. And I'm not sure I want to.

I just have one question. Are we going
to the prom or not?

Now, how could I turn down an invitation
like that?

All right.

I better reorder your corsage.

We'll use the phone upstairs.

Stay.

Yeah, you guys.

Why don't you guys wait outside?

Listen, I'm sorry I came in like this. I
was just looking out for my kid.

Well, I think we both were.

Yeah.

Well, I better get home to face the
music.

Before you go,

do you mind if I ask you a question?

Do you remember when you said that my
strike would end?

Well, it ended.

I thought that you ended it.

You didn't end it, did you?

Are you kidding? Last year, the union
nearly broke my back with a four -month

strike. That's great!

I mean, really?

Honestly, honestly.

Well, that just goes to show you you
shouldn't believe rumors, huh?

Oh, hey, can I ask you something else?
Boy, you know, you ask a lot of

questions. Whatever happened to Charlie
Younger?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe he just got nosy.

You know, Edward, it's kind of nice with
Rick at the prom. We got the whole

house to ourselves.

Hello there.

Soft music, candlelight, chocolate moon.

Getting ideas, Edward?

Me?

No.

Me neither.

Oh, Jeannie and I had a little fight.

Again? Boy, you two are like oil and
water.

Actually, we're more like gasoline and
matches.

What happened?

She didn't like my outfit.

Why not? You look great.

Yeah, I thought the shoes were a real
nice touch.

Me too.

The woman has no taste.

Don't answer that.
