[theme music playing]

[Steve] Well, I know what all you guys are thinking.

Yeah, you're thinking that Steve-o is a little crazy,

a little cuckoo, a little whacko.

Well, it wasn't until I nailed

that half-court shot at the Laker game...

[Brandon] Here he goes again.

[Steve] That I realized that

it was a once in a lifetime phenomenon.

Like us graduating from high school will never happen again.

Listen, Steve, I may not get to graduate

if I don't go back to the library soon, okay?

I've got two more final exams I have to take tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah, and I've still gotta get Mrs. Teasley to sign off

before I can graduate, but that doesn't stop me

from wanting to do something special, with you guys.

Look, Steve, what you're proposing here

is an inspired idea, I'll give you that.

But I just don't think we have the time to pull it off.

Brandon, don't worry, I'll get the van,

I've already got the paint and the canvas,

so all I need to do

is to consult with Donna about the design.

Well, I'd like to help, but couldn't we get in trouble?

What, like getting arrested for trespassing

and defacing private property, that kind of trouble?

Andrea, don't you want people to know that we were here?

Don't you want people to know that we mattered?

I say we do it.

I'm in.

Well, then, do we have a pact?

Do we go for the gold?

Ah, I didn't want to get any sleep on grad night anyway.

[All] Yeah!

["Pomp and Circumstance" playing]

[laughter, indistinct conversations]

[music swells]

I can't believe I have known some of these people

for, like, 12 years.

It's definitely time to meet some new ones.

Come on, are you a little bit nostalgic about graduating?

Yes, I am,

but I just want to get this stupid rehearsal over with.

I mean, what's the big deal?

They call your name, you go up, you get your diploma,

you sit down, you go home.

Well, for someone who almost had to stay home

and miss the whole thing,

they can rehearse me all they want.

Down, set... hike.

Yeah!

[laughing]

Did you see that, Bren?

Did you see that?

You're supposed to be the secondary.

Come on, stick 'em!

Dylan, the teams aren't exactly balanced, man.

They're about to be a little more unbalanced,

'cause I'm outta here, babe. Cover for me, all right?

Hey, where you going bro? I'm meeting a guy for lunch.

Hey listen, you guys cover for me, too.

I gotta go to the Blaze and see if the senior wills

- have been turned in. - Later. Later.

[feedback]

[Andrea] Testing, testing, one two, three.

Testing, testing, testing.

Okay, okay, that's fine.

You want to practice your speech?

No, thanks. I'd rather not over-rehearse.

Well, uh, public oratory tends to be most compelling

when the confluence of language is unfettered

with the constraints of excessive repetition,

if you know what I mean.

Yeah, that's fine, Andrea. That's fine.

Hey, hey, young David,

feeling a little burned out, brother?

Who me? I love taking six finals in three days.

What's my name again?

Just be glad it's not Steve Sanders.

Read any good books lately, bro?

That's not very funny, Brandon.

Come on, Steve, look on the bright side.

It's the last day of school.

Mrs. Teasley cannot make you go to detention,

after you graduate.

- If I graduate. - Steve...

No, why else would she release everyone

from detention but me, huh?

Maybe 'cause you're the only one who broke into the school

to try to change your grades with that stupid legacy key.

You didn't see the way this lady looked at me

when she told me to report to her office after school.

- Why are you so paranoid? - I'm telling you,

I can read this lady like a book.

She's got a hidden agenda here and I know it.

Otherwise, I'd be at the graduation rehearsal right now.

[Jim] What do we got here?

Bacon cheeseburger for you,

and cottage cheese and fruit cup for me.

Is that what I have to look forward to?

Only if you eat too many of those.

So, how do you liked Berkeley?

Well, I could definitely see myself living

in a little place overlooking the bay,

assuming that I can get in.

Well, there's always California University.

Brandon's very excited about going there.

I won't be goin' anywhere until I get those test scores back.

You know, I think it was a very wise decision

to take those SAT's again.

Well, it was like my dad said,

the only way to prove to those bastards that I didn't cheat

was to take the test again and raise my scores.

Did I tell you I've been writing about him?

No. Your mom did.

How is Iris?

Oh, she's... Iris.

She is concerned about

what you're going to do with all your money.

What does she think?

I mean, does she really think that I'm gonna blow it all?

Does she really think I can't handle my own affairs yet?

No, that's not it.

So, why doesn't she just say a mantra, or whatever she does,

and have her accountant cut the check already?

She did.

Really?

That's it right there?

Better wipe your hands.

You don't want to get grease on a check

with this many zeroes in it.

That's a lot of money.

Yes, it is.

[sighs]

[bell ringing]

[Eric] Hello, West Beverly.

This is Eric Ruben.

I've got only one thing to say...

school's out for summer!

[rock music playing]

Hey, how'd it go?

I blew it. I flunked.

It's over.

He says this after every test. It's like a little ritual.

There were a hundred multiple choice questions.

With two minutes to go,

I realized I had been misnumbering

since around the mid-50's.

Well, chemistry's hard for everybody.

Yeah, right.

Who's that?

It's the new voice of West Beverly.

[Teasley] I've warned you time and time again

until I was blue in the face.

And that's why I called your parents!

So, don't even think about coming in here

looking like that next year!

You are so lucky to be getting out of this place.

[knocking]

Come in.

Mrs. Teasley, am I catching you at a bad time?

No, not at all. Come on in.

Mrs. Teasley, before we start,

- can I say something? - No.

You know, Steven, it's been my experience

that every class has at least one unredeemable student.

A student whose values are so warped

that punishment has no effect.

Is this your way of telling me

that I'm not graduating tomorrow?

May I finish, please?

Sure. Knock yourself out.

And I realized early on

that you were the member of the Class of '93

whom I would have to write off,

until I realized I'd misjudged you.

You had?

Your grades since December have improved.

No doubt due to the extra study time in detention.

But the real awakening came when I found out

that on the day after

you had won $10,000 for making a half-court shot

at the Laker game,

someone doNated $10,000

to the Alvarado Street Summer Camp Fund.

Really?

Someone whose return address

happened to be The Hartley House.

What a coincidence.

What a wonderful thing to do.

[Steve] Bro! Bro!

Mrs. Teasley's actually gonna write me a letter

of recommendation to any college I want to go to.

Do you know what this means?

This means that I get to go to any college I want to.

I'm gonna go to

California University with you, man.

Steve, Steve, if you kiss me, I'm gonna slap you.

And you didn't think she liked me, did you?

She loves me, love.

She loves me, 'cause I'm...

For a year I wanted to do that to you!

Yes!

Oh, hey, the Senior Wills are finally here. How do they look?

I haven't had time to check them out.

I'm sure they're fine.

Still working on your speech, huh?

I'm just fine-tuning it.

Mm-hmm, Andrea, you've been fine-tuning it for a week now.

I'm sure it's as fine-tuned as it's gonna get.

It's still awful.

Andrea, come on.

No, I mean it.

It's pretentious, trivial, wishy-washy.

I don't even know what I can do with it anymore, Brandon.

Would it help you to run it by me later?

Brandon, you're great.

I love you.

The best.

["Louie Louie" playing]

Donna, wake up your boyfriend

and tell him to put on his dancing shoes!

No! Shh! With all the studying and rehearsing

for the Senior Breakfast, he's completely drained.

He's missing the Last Day

of the Peach Pit Party right here!

[Nat] Last day at the Peach Pit?

Last day of high school.

It's the last day of high school.

Nat, don't worry, because we're not gonna abandon you

just because we're graduating!

[whooping, shouting]

Greetings, graduates! Big boy! Big boy!

Where's Andrea?

Ah, she had some last-minute worries to take care of.

So, how are the Senior Wills looking?

Outstanding.

Did you bring us our advance copy?

Negative, young Kelly, you're gonna have to wait

to get yours at the Senior Breakfast

just like everyone else.

How come I don't get to leave anything in the Senior Will?

Yeah, and Nat ought to be an honorary member of the class.

Okay, Mr. Bussichio, what would you like to leave?

Well, I know what I'd like to leave your father.

[laughs] That karaoke machine

that almost put me out of business.

So, Nat, what would you leave me?

Uh, that singing group that came in here to serenade you.

Color Me Badd.

- What about me, Nat? - Oh, that one's easy,

Laverne.

Wait, who's Laverne?

[Steve] She's that crazy chick who used to work for Nat.

[East coast accent] Sir! Welcome!

I'm Laverne. Charmed, I'm sure.

[Nat] I don't get it.

What is it, Halloween?

Hey, don't you worry, pops.

You'll get no trick-or-treats with this little lady.

I'm strictly a class act.

A 100% U.S.certified hostess with the mostess.

The special plate for today is spaghetti.

It has meatballs on it, with a red sauce

um, I think it's tomato.

And the soup is vegetable with beefy beef.

Very tasty with saltines.

And for dessert, we have pie.

We have peach pie, cherry pie, apple pie, pecan pie,

lemon pie, cream pie and honey pie.

But if you want pizza pie, you gotta go across the street.

Ask for Guido-- he'll take care of ya.

So what will it be?

Maybe we could get Laverne to make an appearance

at the Senior Breakfast.

Oh, I don't know, if you're nice to her.

[Brandon] Hey, Jordan!

Mr. Grad-u-ate. Congratulations.

Andrea told me your valedictorian speech

was very eloquent.

Thanks. But I think she's exaggerating.

Is she around?

No, she said she had some stuff she has to take care of.

I guess she forgot I was coming.

Well, tell her I stopped by and wish her good luck.

I will. Hey, Jordan,

um... do me a favor.

When you guys go back to New Haven,

don't let Andrea drive herself too crazy.

I won't, if she ends up going there.

What are you talking about? She's been dreaming

about going to Yale since she was born.

She didn't tell you?

She's having a lot of second thoughts about going.

Well, maybe she did mention something.

Did it ever occur to you

why she's having second thoughts?

[crickets chirping]

[Brenda laughs]

[laughs] Hi, guys.

Hey. What's wrong?

You got an envelope from the admissions office

of the University of Minnesota.

Thick or thin?

Very thick.

Looks like we've been admitted.

What do you want me to do with these?

Oh, God, relics from the bimbo era.

I'll take those if you don't want them.

You don't know how much room you're going

to have in the new place, wherever that is.

I was assuming you both would be living in a dorm.

Perish the thought.

I haven't even been accepted anywhere yet.

Well, I guess I'll put these in the "maybe" pile.

God, talk about change.

New house, new school, a new life.

Hi, froggy.

I know, it's like you work so hard to get to the end

of something, and all of a sudden it starts all over again.

Yeah, but not from square one.

I mean, you're actually cool now.

Nothing compared to what you used to be.

Wait, are you saying that I was once a geek?

Well, I remember what you were like

when Mel and Jackie started dating.

Hey, Kel.

Hi.

I heard your mom and my dad

had a pretty swinging time last night.

That's not what I heard.

No, seriously.

I think they already set up another date for this week.

Wouldn't it be cool

if we ended up step-brother and step-sister?

[eerie music playing]

[shower running]

[water stops]

David, get out of here!

Mom!

I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in here.

Get out of here, now!

I-I'm sorry...

Oh, my God.

[groans]

Okay, I've apologized for that numerous times already.

I know, I know.

Living with you actually turned out to be kind of fun.

I just wish Mel and Jackie's marriage had worked out.

Yeah, well, at least you got a baby sister out of it.

And a brother.

Anybody want some more fudge?

- I think we're fine, Mom. - No.

Okay, on the plus side for Minnesota,

it has an exceptional drama department,

you can take your junior year abroad--

You can do that through California University, too.

Not in Paris.

You've already been to Paris.

Brandon, what is it with you?

Look, I understand why you applied to Minnesota,

but seeing as everyone's getting along so well now,

California University is rated as a much better school.

Not to mention the fact-- Dad, you'll appreciate this,

it's also a much cheaper school.

[Brenda] Brandon, just because I got in,

doesn't mean I have to go.

Fine, then I guess it's settled.

Well, I don't think we should be too hasty about this.

I'd like to keep my options open.

[Jim] Well, another plus for California University,

aside from being a great school.

Thank you.

All your friends are here.

And we're here.

I don't have to make my decision right now, do I?

[Brandon chuckles, doorbell rings]

I'll get it.

Sorry, Mom.

Listen, Brenda,

this going away to school, um...

it doesn't have anything to do with Dylan, does it?

Mom, this is the '90s.

What kind of insecure wuss chooses a college

based on where some guy is going?

Hi!

What are you eating?

"And so, as we travel the unfathomable paths

"which weave before us, we do so with the clarity

of our vision and the certainty of our stride..."

Wait, do you think that that should be

the "strength of our convictions"

or the "strength of our certainty"?

I'm still back on "the unfathomable path."

It's the worst, isn't it?

No, no, no, it's not the worst.

It just seems like you're trying to conform to some image

of what you think you should be saying

instead of deciding what it is you want to say.

You're right.

You are absolutely right, but what am I supposed to do?

If I throw this out, I will have to do

a page one rewrite by tomorrow.

I can't do that, I will be a basket case.

I don't even know what I would write about.

- Andrea. - I mean, how do I know that

that speech would be any better than this speech?

- [Brandon] Andrea. - You know what?

I may as well tell them I have laryngitis

because at this point, Brandon, it would not be so far

from the truth, my throat is killing me, I don't even--

Andrea, get a grip on yourself, would ya?

Look at yourself, relax.

You're having a panic attack.

The speech is not that bad.

It just needs a little fine-tuning.

In fact, I'll help you with it for as long as it takes, okay?

Brandon...

how am I going to get through college without you?

I'm sure you'll manage.

You know, the day you walked into that newsroom,

I knew... knew that you were special.

You thought I was tripe the first time you met me.

Yeah.

But that all changed after you followed me home

to my parents' house in Van Nuys.

That is the day that I knew that I could trust you.

And so began a beautiful friendship.

Well, it hasn't been just a friendship, has it?

I guess you could say our relationship's

had its ups and downs.

So what's the big surprise, huh?

Well, I've, uh...

I've got a going away present for you.

Well, what is it?

Uh, well, um...

[giggles] Ta-da...

What?

The carousel, the horse, what?

No, I'm...

I'm giving you the person on my horse.

Uh, if you'll take her.

What?

Look, Brandon, we may never see each other again and I...

I want good-bye to be a moment we both remember.

Oh, my God!

I know exactly why this speech isn't working.

Why?

Because it's not coming from the heart.

It is exactly like you said.

I am trying to live up to this image of being a Yalie,

when I know deep inside I should probably

just stay in town and go to California University.

Andrea, you've got to go to Yale.

You can't give that up because of me, I'm not worth it.

Brandon... It's true that we challenge

and support each other and all that, it's very true.

- Brandon-- - But we just don't have

the kind of relationship

that you should give up your life's dream for.

Just hold it, okay, Brandon.

You are starting to sound like me.

- I am? - Yes.

If I don't go to school back East,

it's because I don't want to be in hock for the rest of my life.

I mean, do you know how expensive Yale is?

I think I have a pretty good idea.

Sorry I jumped to conclusions.

It's okay.

[knocking]

- Hey. - Hi, Smush.

Kel, if you tell anybody that I let you call me that

I'll kill you. [TV playing]

Well, my lips are sealed.

That's the way I like them.

What are you watching?

Oh, I'm not really watching.

I was just sort of reading about California University.

- Oh, really? - Yeah.

I think we'd have a good time here.

You think so, huh?

Well, my dad was real high on the idea

of me going to college, so...

I don't know, I figure I'll check it out

for a little while.

I suppose, but the thought of going back to school

for four more years is just overwhelming.

Well, at least we'll be overwhelmed together.

You've used that line on me before.

Have not. Yes, you have.

When?

The night in the pool.

[Kelly] This was a good idea.

I'm full of good ideas.

[Kelly laughs]

Don't do that if you don't mean it.

I mean it.

Well, you're in trouble now.

Dylan, what if Brenda had come tonight?

[laughs]

She didn't.

So is that how you made up your mind?

'Cause she's not here?

Maybe.

Mel and my mom are breaking up because he was fooling around.

I just can't feel that great about being the other woman.

Look, it was you two who gave me that dumb ultimatum.

You said choose.

I chose and I chose you.

I want you.

I've always wanted you.

[doorbell ringing]

Why does this always happen to us?

[sighing] Don't move.

Who is it?

[xxx] Dylan, it's me.

It's my mother.

[huffs]

Unbelievable.

Hi.

[sighs]

What a pleasant surprise.

Did you really think I'd miss your graduation?

You missed practically everything else in my life.

Oh, you're in a snarly mood.

Aren't you the least bit tickled to see me?

I'm stunned actually.

Can't you pick up the phone like a normal person

and call and let me know that you're coming?

Because I was afraid you'd tell me to stay home

and I was hoping we could spend a few days together.

Besides, half the fun is catching you

with a girl in the bedroom.

Did I, did I catch you with a girl in the bedroom?

No, no, you didn't, we were on the couch.

- Kelly! - You're still with Kelly?

You know, you barge in here,

you expect me to welcome you with open arms

when the fact of the matter is when I needed you,

you were unreachable.

I was on a trek in the Andes.

Oh, yeah, I was just at my father's funeral.

And I called you as soon as I heard.

Right. What'd you expect?

It was bad timing, you and I, huh?

[clears throat]

Hi, Kelly.

I would love to stop and chat, but apparently this visit

is going to be shorter than I thought.

What's it going to be? The Hilton or the Bel Age?

- That will not be necessary. - It's on me.

So I see I've outlived my usefulness

now you're a full-fledged millionaire.

[Dylan] Yeah, reservations, please.

Did he rush right out and get a Gold Card?

Hi, this is Dylan McKay.

I need your best suite for Iris McKay.

Make sure it's non-smoking.

I'm sorry.

No, don't apologize, dear.

Just be careful.

Money changes people.

[Dylan] Yeah, my account number:

6-4-2-8-0-0-6-1-3-7-7-4-4-4.

[piano playing]

Andrea, Andrea, you knock it off already?

Your speech is already a hundred times

better than it was.

Since I started off in the negative column,

that just puts me back to zero, doesn't it?

I give up, I give up.

Bran, some of these senior wills are hysterical.

Tell Andrea, would you?

Try to lighten her up a little bit.

It's my specialty.

Get on it, brother.

Okay, Zuckerman, time to get in the Senior Breakfast mode.

Can I have the pad back, please?

Not until you acknowledge what I left you

in the Senior Wills.

Great, an egg.

Are you implying that that's what I'm gonna lay

when I give my speech?

Andrea, don't you remember

when we went to exchange the egg?

We drove around all night

looking for that underground club?

- Hmm? - Right.

- Don't you remember that? - The egg exchange!

Come on, that lady in, in that store?

Hi, I'd like to exchange an egg.

You want to exchange an egg?

Do you have a receipt?

No.

Do I need a receipt?

I mean, is that part of the thing?

It's customary to have a receipt

when you want to exchange something.

I think we're in the wrong place.

No, no, this is all part of the deal.

Watch.

I want to... exchange an egg.

[Andrea] Look, Steve, let's go.

What's wrong with the egg?

Nothing.

But you want another?

[chuckling] No, I don't want another egg.

I want information.

Look, I don't know what you kids are on,

but I'm calling the police.

You know, I think we're in the wrong place.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hey, what's so funny?

You had to be there.

Brenda, forget it.

You cannot leave me the double date from Hell

and not tell me what their names were.

Okay, I'll give you a hint.

Wayne.

- And Adam. - [All] Ugh!

- Wayne and Adam? - Don't you remember?

My mom set these guys up on a blind date with the two geeks.

Right, the men, bro, from Princeton.

This is Wayne and this is Adam.

This is Brenda and Kelly.

Oh, wow.

Thank you, God.

You guys don't really go to Princeton, do you?

Yeah, yeah, we do.

We go to the Princeton School in Encino.

Yeah, making boys into men.

Brenda.

Uh, see, we thought that you were college guys.

Oh... okay.

Well... we don't have to go out if you don't want to.

[Cindy] No, no, of course you're going out.

We are going to have so much fun.

I can just feel it.

[sighing] They took us to a video arcade.

That had to be the funniest night I had all year.

Are you sure about that?

- Did you see what I left you? - What?

Cervelle de veau?

[laughs] Oh.

- What's that mean? - Je ne sais pas.

Okay, you guys have got to remember

that was our first night in Paris, right?

Awful plane ride.

All we wanted was a really, really, really good meal.

[speaking in french]

Oh, here.

Whoops.

Bren, this is all in French.

Oh, um, oh, God.

[enunciating] I don't want fish.

[laughs nervously]

One, one sec.

This, please. S'il vous plaît.

- Cervelle de veau, très bien. - What's that?

Veauis veal.

Ooh, that sounds good.

Garcon, make that two.

Très bien.

You see, that wasn't so hard, was it?

Bon appétit.

Cervelle de veau.

[scoffs]

Wait a second.

I ordered veal.

Me oui, cervelle de veau.

Bon appétit.

Okay, it looks weird,

but I'm sure it's edible.

You're right.

About now I could eat just about anything.

It's very, uh... French.

It's, uh, it's kind of mushy.

It's brains.

How could you do that?

Donna, Donna, we're on soon.

We've still got to get into costume.

- Okay, let's go. - Break a leg.

[Brandon] How could you order veal anyway?

[Steve] I like veal, I like veal.

[all talking]

Au revoir, Mademoiselle Donna.

- Have fun. - Me oui.

That's a pretty funny bit with the cow brains.

Yeah. [chuckles]

What's the matter?

I really loved being in Paris,

but I can't help wondering what would be

if I hadn't gone.

Does anybody else know you've been accepted to Minnesota?

Okay. Get this.

Some people would rather live in Beverly Hills

- than here in Aurora, Illinois. - No way.

And they actually say that it's kind of cool

to go to West Beverly High.

- No way. - Way.

- No way. - Way!

And these same people also say...

[together] Live from West Beverly High,

it's the Senior Breakfast!

[crowd cheering]

[Steve] It's the Senior Breakfast with

David Silver, Donna Martin,

Mrs. T. and the class of '93,

special musical guest the Wildcat Singers.

And here he is now...

David Silver!

Thank you, thank you. Thank you, Steve.

Could you please come up here for a minute?

Come on.

Now, somebody found something

and they, they thought it might belong to you.

Oh, yep, it's a legacy key.

They say it unlocks every door

to every boys' bathroom in the entire school.

[crowd cheering]

Aren't you late for detention, Steve?

Let's hear it for Steve.

[crowd cheering]

And let's hear it for my partner in crime Donna Martin.

Whoo, whoo, whoo!

Whoo!

Okay, now, I know most of you have seen

David's video yearbook,

but we thought you'd like to see some of the outtakes

that didn't make it on the reel,

starting with the camping trip

that some of us will never forget.

He's not going to show that.

[David on tv] It's a brand new morning here at Hukamuk Lodge

and as you can see,

some campers tend to be less bright-eyed

and bushy-tailed than others.

We've heard tell of some wild boar living in these parts.

[Steve on tv] Give me a break, okay?

Oh, isn't it a little early for this, David?

David, get out!

[Steve blowing nose]

[Brenda on TV] Steve, what are you doing?

[Steve on tv] Leave me alone.

[Kelly on tv] He's clearing his sinuses or so he claims.

[Steve on tv] It's true.

[Brenda on tv] I am starving...

Man, this is beautiful.

- Whoa! - Brandon!

- [grunts] - Brandon!

Where are you at, man?

- [straining] - Brandon!

Dylan, get back, man, the ledge is going to go.

All right, man, grab my hand.

I-I can't, man, I can't let go.

You gotta try.

Come on.

[grunts]

Don't look down.

Look up here. Look right here.

All right, come on.

[both grunting]

[applause]

[David] And for being so graceful on the gridiron,

your trophies.

Let's give it up for the Varsity Backfield.

You're dead, Silver.

Thank you, Tony.

And now, Brenda Walsh and Kelly Taylor, come on down.

- Uh-oh. - Hey, now.

Here goes nothing.

Now, you guys don't know this,

but Brenda and Kelly are the only students at West Beverly

to ever win a prize on a radio call-in show

and I don't think either of them will ever forget

the prize that they won.

Okay, everybody, watch the monitors.

I don't know, Kel.

This might have to be a solo mission on your part.

[Kelly on tv] Brenda, I couldn't do that to you.

You're my best friend.

I have to help you face your fears.

No, Kelly!

[both screaming]

This is so amazing!

Brenda, get me down!

[both screaming]

[cheering and applause]

Here's a little memento of that experience

for both of you.

- Ooh. Thanks. - But don't go yet

because I want you guys and Donna to turn the clocks back

and say hello to Hello Day.

[cheering and applause]

Wasn't that great, everybody?

Brenda and Kelly were up

all night writing and choreographing that one.

Good job, guys.

I just want you to know that was not my idea.

Hey, I'm not complaining. You want to get up there

and make fools of yourselves, be my guest.

Thanks for being here. It's been a great year and...

Not so fast, Davey.

What retrospective would be complete without an award

to West Beverly's #1 song-and-dance man, huh?

Hit it, Gary.

What's he doing?

You'll see.

[music playing]

[crowd cheering]

Oh, this is from the spring dance.

Yeah, the pre-Donna era.

You guys, this is great.

I missed most of it because I came late that night.

Yeah.

I missed most of it, too.

Dylan, this is so beautiful.

Do you know why I'm so lucky?

Why?

How many girls get to have sex for the first time

with someone they love?

I don't know.

I've never really taken an opinion poll.

Mm.

Dylan! Whoo!

Dylan, stop! Put me down!

[huffs] I'm sorry.

I just can't control myself.

Well, don't fight it.

We are in the room.

We certainly are.

[music playing]

[crowd cheering]

Th-th-th-that's all, folks!

You got a standing ovation.

Doesn't that count for something?

I just feel kind of burned out, that's all.

Well, of course you do.

I mean, anybody would

with the schedule you've been carrying all this year.

But it's over now.

[sighs] Yeah, it's over.

Now I can't figure out

why I've been pushing myself so hard

when I could have just stayed

and been king of the mountain for another year.

David, you wanted to be with your friends.

I didn't want to be left behind, but...

it's like everyone knows what they're gonna do except me.

I don't know. I just feel like the gang's breaking up.

Well, you still have me.
