There's no place like home.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to roam. Cause there's no place

home.

Times are changing every day.

We won't get by with those same old
ways.

Pulling together, we'll make it right.

No place like home.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to roam.

Cause there ain't no place like. There
ain't no place like. There

ain't no place like.

There's no place like home.

I mean no place like.

It's no big deal. It's just another
track meet.

Hey, no red carpet?

You only won four in a row.

Five. Excuse me?

Actually, it was six. You were the
fastest crawler in preschool.

Alexandria, did you see when I crossed
the finish line, the entire team picked

me up and carried me across the field?

Must have been quite a load, you and
your ego.

You know, if I were you, I'd sleep with
my eyes open tonight.

Well, there's no stopping you now,
sugar. Next week, the semifinals. Go get

them. And after that, on to the city
championship.

And then the world's record.

And someday, who knows?

Someday, you could even become a gym
teacher.

Thank you, Calvin.

The thrill of victory. And the agony of
denounce.

Who won? You mean, how much did she win
by?

Not the trophy. Congratulations, Brenda.
Pretty soon she'll have as many as I

have.

She got hers for running. I got mine for
getting caught.

Well, Brenda, that must be your coach. I
invited him over for some coffee.

Probably wants to sign me to a lifetime
contract.

John, glad you could make it. How you
doing? Hey, Coach. Hey.

Everybody, meet John Smith. He trained
two gold medalists at this year's

Olympics. And he's Brenda's track coach
on loan from UCLA.

Oh, where do I go to apply for one of
these loans?

The line forms behind me.

I'm Rose Holloway. How do you do, Rose?

Brenda, look who's here.

Hey, Willie.

Hi, Brenda. And everybody, this is one
of my athletes, Willie Amachi.

He's an Olympic runner from Ghana.

Oh, hi, Willie.

Well, hi, Willie.

Listen, everybody, why don't you make
yourselves at home? I made some coffee

cookies.

Oh, well,

what's that all about?

I said, welcome in is native language,
Fonty. And what did you say?

And I said, That's what I thought you
said.

John Smith, that's a famous name, you
know.

Oh, you mean the Pocahontas story?

No. I mean the man who's registered for
more hotel rooms than anybody in

history.

Don't mind her. She's always flirting.

I, on the other hand, am a sensible,
reliable, good housekeeper, great cook,

a sheer delight for any single man.

Sorry, ladies, but I'm a married man.

Take it, Sandra.

So, Willie, it must have been quite a
thrill for you to be competing in the

Olympics. Yes, but I put a hamstring,
and I had to drop out.

but I hope to make it in the next one.

This is why I'm helping Willie raise
funds, so he can stay in this country to

train. And I wanted to start in
Washington because it is the sister city

hometown, Kumasi.

All right, a brother from a sister city.

Well, Coach, is there anything we can do
to help?

How about a car wash?

How about selling T -shirts? Hey, that's
a good idea, but I got a better one. I

bet we could raise a lot of money with a
neighborhood race.

You mean like a mini -marathon?

Yeah. Right, we get the local
businessmen to sponsor the runners.

You know, Willie, I think Mary's found
your answer.

Yeah, and I have a friend who might
help.

Good. Guess who it is.

Oh, it doesn't make any difference who
it is, Tal. Just bring them. We can use

all the help we can get.

Marathon, this is going to be fun. I've
been dying to get out the old college

track shoes.

Yeah, and I've been dying to get back to
my old college body.

But it's for a good cause.

A neighborhood marathon.

All right, then can I speak to your
mommy?

Hello?

Hello?

Kids.

So how's it going?

Not good.

I'm just not much of a salesman. I
called seven people and six of them said

Well, what about the seventh one? They
tried to sell me some encyclopedias.

What nerve.

Yeah, the first volume's coming
tomorrow.

Well, hang in there. Help is on the way.
Willie told his friend to meet him

here, and they should be here any
minute.

Anybody want any cake?

Brenda, what on earth are you doing
home?

I thought you were out at the track
practicing for the semifinals. Mom,

worry. Not only have I already won the
meet, but I got the two -year

scholarship, too. So you and Dad can
just take that college money you saved

and buy me a car.

Well, now, don't get too cocky. I know
you're good, but something could happen,

you know.

Don't worry, Mom. I got it.

Okay. You know, there's a medical term
for people like you.

Yeah, what is it?

Nauseating.

I'm going to call Reverend Davis and see
if I can get him to mention the

marathon during a sermon.

Great idea. That's a good way to spread
the word.

Yeah, and if that doesn't work, I'll
just tell Sandra it's a secret, and then

the whole neighborhood will know.

I'll call you right back.

Well, come in. Come in.

Hi. I'm looking for Willie Amache. I
can't believe it. Flojo.

Yes, that's my name.

So then you must be Mary Jenkins.

Why, yes, I am.

And I'm her daughter, Brinkley. And I'm
Calvin Dobbs, a neighbor.

And I'm about to faint.

Oh,

Calvin.

Calvin, my goodness.

Let her catch her breath.

Go get the camera.

What's this commotion going on out here?

Florence, Griffith, Johnny.

Mary, go get the camera. Go get the
camera.

Please, relax.

I'm just one of the folks here to help
out with the marathon.

Right. I mean, everybody calm down.

They get so excited.

Okay, smile, Mom.

Oh, wait.

Hey,

I want to be in the picture, too.

Hey, I want to be in the picture, too.

Me, too.

Here, I'll do it.

I was so much simpler when I was a
hairdresser. I know what you mean,

I'm sorry.

But, you know, it isn't every day we get
a gold medalist in the house.

Oh, I understand.

Since the Olympics, I get this
everywhere I go.

Well, child, you will not run into it
here. So just sit down, kick back, and

relax. Girl, that's music to my ears.

Come on, everybody, give her some air.

There she is! There she is! Oh, I told
you that was her!

I always wanted to meet the second
fastest woman in the world.

Lawrence, you were wonderful at the
Olympics.

I mean, I was glued to the set every
day.

But I still don't know how you do it. Do
what?

Those nails, girlfriend.

Well, first I paint them.

Then I run 100 meters to dry them.

I used to roll when I was your age.

Really?

Uh -huh. I broke a 16 -minute mile.

Were you ever interested in track and
field?

Mm -hmm, when I was in high school.

While my boyfriend was on the track, I
played the field.

But, Mr. Peterson, look, we really need
your support in this marathon.

Oh, business has been pretty slow, huh?

Did I tell you Florence Griffith joining
was participating?

Oh, thank you, Mr. Peterson. I'm happy
to hear that business just picked up.

Well, I got another one. That makes 12
out of 12.

Florence, you are really doing a good
job, honey. Me? I'm just sitting here

having coffee.

Yeah, but your name is working like mad.

Success sure must have its rewards.

Yes, but it can be a bit overwhelming
sometimes.

But I must admit, I really enjoy walking
down the street being noticed.

Me too.

Don't you enjoy those whistles too,
girl?

No, I can relate to what you're talking
about. Ever since I've been winning

races, kids always want to hang around
me now, and the school paper wants to do

an article on me. Guys always want to
drive me home.

Well, I guess that's the heavy price we
champions have to pay, huh, Brenda?

But you know something, ladies? In spite
of all the little inconveniences, I'm

going to enjoy it while I can, because I
know someday somebody new will come

along, and they'll be standing in the
limelight.

Yeah, someday.

Somebody knew.

This is truly a wonderful moment. Center
stage on the Olympic podium, Florence

Griffiths Joyner, winner of the gold
medal.

Wait a minute. What's going on here?

The judges must have recounted the
scores. They're actually changing

What an incredible turn of events.

The new gold medal winner is Brenda
Jenkins of the USA.

Look at that face.

She's positively beaming. You'll see
this young lady on cereal boxes all over

the country.

Brenda, have another donut?

Yeah, I'll have a gold or a silver.

There,

everything's ready.

Now, as soon as they get here, we're
going to yell, surprise!

Three cheers for Brenda.

Okay. That's very original, Rose.

Oh, Brenda, this is very exciting.

Brenda's going to win those semifinals,
and then she'll be one step away from

the city championship.

I am coming. Get ready.

Well, shouldn't we hide?

Well, we got permission to be here.

Surprise! Hey, Beth! Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Ooh. I guess she doesn't like surprises.

She lost the race.

For she's a jolly good fella. For she's
a jolly good fella. Put a sock in it,

Pearl. I feel bad, sugar. We've all had
our losses at one time or another.

Yeah, but not like this. How can I ever
show my face in school?

She's right.

Alexandria, losing is nothing to be
ashamed of. Of course not.

Well, you know, I remember the first
time I sang in my high school talent

I was horrendous. I mean, I was so bad,
I brought tears to my own eyes.

year and competed again. Did you win?
No!

That was a very inspirational story.

Well, that's nothing.

I was in a pie baking contest one time.

And not only did I lose, my rhubarb pie
made all the judges sick.

But you still make that pie. And it's
still making people sick.

Can we change the subject, please?

No, no, Mary. I got a great loser story.

I was 17. I was in love with the captain
of the high school football team.

I did everything I could to attract him,
you know, within reason.

All I wanted was for him to ask me to
the junior prom, but so did Susie

She was a cheerleader. Rich, you know.

Had her own convertible. Knew how to use
it, you know.

Well, you can imagine what happened.

Uh -huh. He took Susie to the prom.

No, he took me to the prom.

And then why were you the loser?

I wasn't the loser.

Susie was.

That's why... the great loser stuff and
ignoring that

what we're trying to say honey is that
everybody has had losses and moved on i

hope you learned something from all this
yeah i've learned something all right

i'm not running in the finals next week
i'm quitting track

Hey, babe.

Oh, hi, honey.

So, how's Brenda today?

Well, she's in the kitchen now, but it
was the same as yesterday. Came in

straight from school, went to her room,
refused to take any calls, and has

ordered me to take the word run from my
vocabulary.

Frankly, I like the peace and quiet. I'm
getting a lot more work done.

Alexandria, you know, you're not exactly
helping. You could try to cheer her up.

Hey, Brenda.

How about some ice cream? Race you down
to the store. Last one buys.

I guess I didn't cheer her up. You sure
did cheer me up.

Well, I guess I better go talk to her.

Well, I see you haven't changed your
mind about quitting track.

Yeah, we've already been through this.
I'm just not getting it.

That's not true, and I don't like you
giving up so easily.

I've never known you to be a quitter.

Dad, do you know how humiliating it was
walking around thinking I was so good

and then to lose in front of all those
people?

Look, let me tell you a story.

Is this going to be about the time you
took Porkchop Hill?

No, it's about the time I fumbled the
football during the regional playoffs.

We're in head the entire game, and then
because of my fumble, we lost by a

touchdown. Oh, Dad, you must have felt
terrible.

Guess messing up runs in the family.

Well, maybe.

But quitting doesn't.

By the next season, I lost my
confidence.

I wasn't even sure I was going to go out
for the team.

But I did.

Then I wasn't sure whether I'd make the
team.

But I did.

And then I was sure I'd fumble in the
first game.

And I did.

Is this supposed to cheer me up?

The point is, I hung in there until I
got my confidence back. By the end of

next season, even too tall Jones
couldn't have got that football out of

It's a very nice story, Daddy, but I
just don't think this is the same thing.

I don't think it's exactly different,
either. And I wish you would think it

over. I thought it over, and I just
don't want to go through that again.

Okay.

Daddy? Yeah?

Thanks for trying.

What are pops for?

30 minutes into the race, and it's for a
good cause.

Friends, neighbors, celebrities,
everyone is out to help get Willie

the next Olympics.

Hi, I'm health, and I'm Sandra Clark.
Way to camp. I want to show everybody

gorgeous I look.

This is radio, and we're having people
phone in and make pledges.

Oh, well, then to all you people that
call in, whoever pledges the most amount

of money obviously has the most money
and will win a dinner for two with me on

death at the most expensive restaurant
in town.

Oh, that's generous of you. Anything for
gold.

Here comes Flojo, running a ceremonial
lap.

Flojo, can I get a moment?

I know this is definitely different from
running in the Seoul Olympics.

Yeah, in Korea I was running for gold.
Here, I'm running for heat.

Can we take a few shots?

See you, Brenda.

All the attention you get when you're a
big track star.

Yeah, but nobody remembers the girl that
came in third.

Florence, this was a great idea you had
for this marathon.

Well, actually, it wasn't my idea.

It was the brainchild of a very given
woman named Mary Jenkins.

Speaking of giving, here she comes now,
giving it all she's got.

Excuse me, Mrs. Jenkins, may I have a
word with you? Oh, child, take as many

words as you want. I could use the rest.

How many times have you been around the
block?

Oh, about $22 and 10 cents.

I must admit, this is a great idea.

But what do you think the results will
be?

Well, I'll tell you, child.

Willie may be able to run in the
Olympics, but I don't think I'll be able

walk for a week.

Well, I got to go. My meter's running.

Only 300 more times to go, Pearl. What's
up?

How you doing? I need water.

Let me rephrase that. I need a drink of
water.

Oh, rankling, salt -free a spot.

Surprise me.

What's the matter, Leslie?

Tired already?

Oh, Rose, go on. I already left you
three times.

Only because I stopped for lunch.

I've given up on running. It's not part
of my life anymore.

But everyone tells me how good you are.

That's what I thought until I came in
third.

Brenda, everyone loses sometimes.

My time is over. I'm finished.

You know, I had to lose a lot of races
before I became the fastest woman in the

world. If I had quit every time I came
in third, the closest I would have

to Korea was watching Madge reruns.

Think about it, Brenda.

And it looks like a gentleman who's
sponsored by the government.

How many laps have you completed, sir?
This is my first one. Just one?

Well, I'd be a lot faster, but I'm
delivering the mail at the same time.

And here comes a young man sponsored by
the D .C. Pet Shop. I'm Calvin Dobbs,

and I'd be winning the race if I didn't
have to stop at all the fire hydrants.

Flag line.

Fifty dollars to talk to Flojo.

This is Flo -Jo.

And here comes a pretty little girl.

And who's your sponsor, sweetheart?

I'm still looking for one.

Oh, that's a shame.

Hey, how about your radio station?

Well, we're not usually in the business
of sponsoring. Oh, you're against

marathons and helping people in the
Olympics. We pledge $50. Good. Nice

business with you.

I want to show you this outfit.

What do you think?

Very interesting.

I designed it myself. I want to put it
on the market. I think you're the

person to endorse it.

Well, Sandra, I don't know.

Now, come on. Now, this is the ultimate
in high fashion running tops.

A necessity for a woman who meets a good
looking man while she's out on that

jogging trail. You know what I mean?

Versatility is the key factor here.

Especially if he's taking you from the
running track to an exclusive

You are now elegantly dressed for a
night on the town. Florence!

Florence! What do you think?

You might have something there, but let
me get back to you.

Florence, now I think it's obvious. With
my talent and your name, I mean, we

can't lose!

expensive goods there.

Calvin, you're going the wrong way.

To the door!

They have $2 ,000 to go, and it's
getting pretty cold down here.

Mary, I think this is your last pit
stop.

Sal, you got that right.

This is it for me.

I'm gonna get a warm bath if I can make
it up these steps.

Oh, Mary, I'm glad you're here. I hate
to run, but I've got a plane to catch.

Well, child, if anybody can catch it,
you can.

And thank you for making me feel so at
home.

It was easy with you.

Yeah, thanks for the talk.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Bye -bye. Bye -bye.

Mom,

you did good. Thank you.

Well, you know, there's still time for
you to do a few laps.

I'm busy here.

Oh, still don't want to run, huh?

You know, Brenda, I think you're being
silly, not to mention selfish.

We'll be running for a good cause.

Mom, I told you I don't want to run.

You know, coming in third is nothing to
be ashamed of.

What happened to if at first you don't
succeed, try, try again?

Oh, never mind.

Uh -oh, this is an unexpected
development.

It looks like it's starting to snow.

Sondra, we're supposed to be collecting
money, not men.

Hazelwood, Bartley, and Daly merged with
Miller, Hawkins, and James.

It's really coming down now.

I guess it's back to the studios.

Home, James!

And Miller and Hawkins and Bartley did
it again.

No pitching now, fellas.

Willie, you've got to come inside. It's
freezing.

Everybody quit hours ago.

But I must continue until I reach the
goal. By yourself?

Yes, if I must.

I know how you feel. You really want
that Olympic medal.

Medal would be nice, but that's not the
important thing.

It isn't? No, competing is important.

Well, don't you care if you win?

Oh, Brenda, I always win, as long as I
do my best. In my heart, I feel like I'm

a winner.

I think I understand.

I must go. I'm running by myself, so I
have 200 more laps to go.

No.

Only 100.
