Original subtitles

I love you for sentimental

reasons I hope you do

believe me

Are you feeling better yet?

Yeah.

You sure know how to make a guy happy.

This would be perfect if I wasn't afraid I was going

to lose an eye.

Oh, sorry.

I don't even know why fondue went out of fashion. Very dangerous.

I know. I think the last time I had is when my eighth grade girlfriend took me

for my birthday.

Yeah? Mm -hmm. I thought you said there were no girls before me.

No, what I said was there were no great loves before you.

I was sorry with your eighth great girlfriend.

But you were so adorable.

No, but then we'd be broken up by now.

I don't plan on ever breaking up with you.

And I don't care when we would have met.

Whenever we laid eyes on each other, we would have fallen madly in love.

You're a... hopeless romantic.

Admit it. It's true.

Right. Whenever we laid eyes on each other, we would have fallen madly in

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Say it like you mean it.

Whenever we laid eyes on each other, we would have fallen hopelessly, completely

in love.

All right, so why did it take you so long to find me, huh?

Perhaps because you were busy marrying someone else.

How could you let me make such a stupid mistake?

I didn't even know you. My point exactly.

You're right.

I'm sorry I should have found you earlier.

You should have.

Well, maybe I can make it up to you right now.

Oh, yeah?

Janie! What just happened in there?

Do you really think after everything I went through in my first marriage that

I'd be prepared to do it again?

Well, yeah, I hope so.

That was awful.

It was a nightmare.

Well, I'm not asking you to marry Doug, baby. I'm asking you to marry me. It's

all the same.

Sorry, I didn't mean it the way it sounded. It's just... It'll end with

someone's heart being completely shattered, and I can't sign up for that

What are you saying?

It's me. It's George, all right? I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

I want to be married, to be a family.

I want to be the way we are.

Please, baby, please. We've got everything already.

I don't have a wife, you don't have a husband, and we don't have married in

forever. You know that forever lasts a little under a year and usually ends in

divorce? Well, not if you marry the right person. Really? How can you be so

sure?

I've never been so sure of anything in my life.

I just... I don't have that luxury.

I don't want anybody but you. Nothing's going to change.

I don't want anyone but you either. That's what I'm trying to tell you.

Romance like ours should end in marriage.

Well, for an ad man, that's a great sound.

Marriage, where romance ends.

I want to be your husband. I want to spend my life making you happy. I am

I am.

I thought Doug loved me, you know?

But all he wanted was a wife who was smart enough to take to business dinners

and dumb enough not to know he was messing around all over town.

You love me, Janie?

Completely.

You want to be with me?

All the time.

And stop thinking about us as some other relationship you once had.

We're us.

We're meant to be together.

We were meant to be together a long time ago.

The ring's amazing.

Happy Monday, darling.

Happy Monday.

Those are gorgeous.

Oh, I know.

Can't resist them. Oh, dear Jane got a ton of mail today. It's all there.

There are a few juicy ones, I might add.

Hey, stop reading my mail. They say dear Jane, not dear Freddie.

And that brings us to Burger and Moss again. Congrats on the Nike campaign.

was fantastic.

I'm sure you can come up with something equally successful for our friends over

at Valet de Fleur.

Here's the new client.

Right. Diller and Kincaid, the BMW meeting's set for next Friday, so let's

waste any time, all right?

And lastly, Murray and Blinton.

After that razzle -dazzle job you did with Preparation H, a new assignment

be right up your alley.

All right, I think that's it.

Great.

Auto readers, tux, pads.

When did we become the hygiene kings? When that punt became VP.

There is one bit of business I'd like to clear up before you all leave.

You are no longer employees of Johnson Advertising.

What?

Welcome to Johnson and Harrington.

Partner? Partner?

Partner!

I can't believe this is happening. Wake up and smell the spring fresh sneaker

spray Harvey had just did, and I'm out of here.

He'd still be pushing a mail cart if it wasn't for me. I know. He stole your

sketches, presented the Mitsubishi campaign without you, and the rest is

history.

What?

When did you and George break up?

What?

Dear Jane, my mother -in -law is a very sweet woman and we've always gotten

along. In December, she's having surgery and my husband wants her to stay with

us for the holidays.

We usually stay with my family at that time of the year and I'm not sure how

they're going to feel about this.

How should I handle this situation without upsetting my parents?

Signed, a little mixed up.

Gear mixed up.

Divorce seems the only alternative.

Your husband's inconsiderate request shows that he puts his mother before

This is unacceptable.

Sincerely, dear Jane.

I can't print those.

They're like those whacked -out answers you wrote when you and Doug broke up.

All right.

Here it is.

George and I got engaged.

Might have inspired some of those responses.

You're engaged.

We got engaged.

Oh, my goodness.

Gorgeous. Yeah, I know. It's my grandmother's ring. He had it reset with

diamond. He knew I loved it.

I love that, George. Yeah, me too. Oh, and wasting no time, this is the invite

to the engagement party. My ecstatically happy mother is growing.

Oh, congratulations.

You okay?

Yeah.

I did this already.

Yeah, I know.

I was there. It was almost exactly ten years ago.

November 6th, 1999. A day that will live into infamy.

Well, look at the bright side.

At least your mother won't be sitting Shiva this time.

Thank you. Thanks for that.

My mother, the wedding coordinator.

So she cut out a few pictures of wedding gowns. A few pictures?

She's had a dang second wedding file before my first wedding.

Mary says I'm nervous now and I shouldn't be and I should have been with

wasn't.

She never liked him, did she? No. I always thought he was a jerk.

You know, I didn't even get it when he showed up half an hour late for our

wedding rehearsal.

Well, how could you know he was in the honeymoon suite doing it with the

coordinator?

Well, I don't know.

You know, I swear if I'm wink at her during the ceremony, I'm not kidding.

Well, as long as your mom's our wedding coordinator, I can pretty much guarantee

history's not going to repeat itself.

Very funny.

I love you.

You're sweet, yeah.

I love you too, baby.

Yellow light, make a wish.

Make it through.

Wish comes true.

Hey, you didn't make a wish.

I didn't want to be greedy.

Mine already came true.

Aw.

All right, you're right. You're absolutely right. This is going to be

It's going to be the best thing for me.

Starting tonight, I'm going to enjoy the fact that we're getting married.

You know, marriage is not something you enter into frivolously.

You know what I mean?

It involves a very sacred vow. The vows that I take with George, I will honor

all the days of my life.

My mommy says that your first marriage was a disaster.

And that $100 wedding gift was a big waste of money.

And daddy says he's not getting into that monkey suit again for anybody.

Not even you.

There's a special wedding rule.

Mommy has a whole year to get you a present, and this time she's going to

to make sure it sticks.

Okay.

Cheers.

Hey, Jane's dad wants to make a toast. Have you seen her?

Uh -oh.

Still the exits.

Look into that crystal ball of yours, would you, and tell me where she is.

Crystal balls are for amateurs.

I see a crowded room, celebration of some sort.

We're going to go find her.

Those are really nice.

Put that bottle down right now and get back to your party.

And leave my sweet, sweet nieces and nephew?

No, thank you, sir. While you're in here doing your best Who's Afraid of

Virginia Woolf impression?

That perfect little fiancé of yours is out there charming the pants off

everybody. Exactly. He's better off without me.

What are you doing? Nothing. You have to get back to the living room. Your

father wants to make a toast.

Okay, okay. I'm coming.

Uh, now?

Let's go.

Right now?

All right, all right. Give me one second.

Now? Okay.

Bye.

Sorry.

Jane?

Your mother and I have loved each other through it all for 40 years.

And we want to wish you and George a whole lifetime of the same kind of love,

joy, and devotion that we've shared.

Cheers, everyone.

Cheers.

Thank you.

I also, I just want to say a few words.

When I first met Jane, I...

I knew fate had played its hand and I was ready.

I remember when I called her.

She's a little old for another go around.

I hope she's not planning to wear white.

I don't think she should have worn white to the first one. You know what I mean?

Let's hope this one can wait until after the wedding to start cheating on her.

Or at least until after the rehearsal.

I knew she was the girl for me.

And I just want to thank everybody for...

for coming tonight and sharing this with us and feel so grateful that you could

all be here and so i want to give a toast to you and to sam and lillian

for throwing us this wonderful engagement party and to my beautiful

-be the woman i've been waiting my whole life for jane

Let's dance everybody.

Be married life starting already.

But unlike that ex of yours, I'm actually going to work. We're in a

a presentation due Monday.

Fine. I'm exhausted anyhow.

Go in, take a couple ass runs.

I'll call you before I go to bed, okay? Mm -hmm.

I really do love you.

Very much.

I want you to know that.

Of course I know that.

I love you too, sweetheart.

I'm going to marry you, aren't I?

That's the plan.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night.

This isn't working.

I'm getting punchy.

All I can think of when I think of hemorrhoids is, I don't want to think

hemorrhoids.

Yeah, and painful itching and swelling.

Yeah, that's not helping.

You know what we need to do?

I'm too tired.

It'll make us feel better.

All right.

And a five, six, seven, eight.

I bet you Fred Astaire never had hemorrhoids.

No, he wore a tux. He didn't use them.

Wait a minute.

Classy guy.

Hitting the road. Tux jacket swung over his shoulder.

Nothing holding him back.

He's suave.

He's debonair.

Have a tux. Will travel.

I like it. Hallelujah.

Okay.

What time is it?

Late.

Weird. Haven't heard from Jane.

Probably asleep.

She's gonna call.

You have one new message.

Hi, baby. It's me.

You're not here, and I've just been thinking about you and thinking about

I can't stop thinking about you.

I can't do this.

It's just too hard. I want to do it, but I can't.

I know it's not right to leave this on your machine, but I couldn't bring

to say it in person.

Oh, my God.

I'm messed up, baby.

You know it, and I know it.

If I can't marry you, I'd have to be...

I'm going to go away for a little bit.

I love you. I really do.

What? Jake's got cold feet.

All right, I'm going over there.

All right, I'll be back, Harvey. I'll be back.

I'll be here.

I wish I met Jane before she was married.

Hey, buddy.

Can you tell me your name?

Yeah, uh... George. George Murray.

Well, Georgie, you were in quite a little fender -bender here.

Sorry, man.

You know what happened?

Uh, I was driving through an intersection.

I don't know if something hit me.

Did you see it?

Not clearly, but I felt it. And I can tell you one thing, it was no smart car.

Right.

If it was smart, then it probably wouldn't have hit you.

Felt more like a Hummer.

A Hummer?

You a vet, George?

You having a flashback?

Huh?

How's the head feeling?

Felt better.

You know where you are, George?

Uh, Woodruff and Hill.

You know the date?

November 2nd.

How about the year?

2009.

Okay, George, listen.

We're going to get you in the ambulance in just a minute, okay?

Is there anybody you want us to call? Anybody you want to meet you at the

hospital?

Jane. Okay.

Yeah. Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, we'll call her.

You remember her number? No, you don't understand. I gotta go.

George, George, you sustained a blow to the head. You need to go to the

hospital. I gotta get out of here. I gotta go.

George, you're doing this against medical advice.

I don't care!

I'd go right now. Got it? No, this is Jane's door.

It's your door.

Welcome

to

the Twilight Zone.

This is your wake -up call.

What?

Your wake -up call, buddy. Time to move on.

What a night.

What a nightmare.

Really tied one on, huh?

It was an accident and a head injury.

The time you get when you hit the bottle too hard. Yeah.

Whoa, whoa now, Hobo Harry. Where do you think you're going? I'm going to my

office. Where in there?

Only for the last five years.

Uh, where's Harvey?

Uh, delivering the mail.

Very funny. Where the hell is he?

Relax, buddy.

He's up on two delivering the mail.

Okay, he's delivering the mail. Where's Johnson? Serving coffee?

Actually, he's right over there.

Oh, Mr. Johnson. Thank God. I was starting to think I was going crazy.

You look good, sir.

Thank you. And who are you?

Very funny. You know me.

Young man, I never forget a face.

The hygiene guy.

I hardly think so. No.

Kindly step aside.

What's going on?

What is going on here? Has everybody gone crazy?

Apparently, one of us has.

Let's continue, gentlemen.

Harvey! Thank God! You would not believe what's happened to me since I left you.

Do you know this man?

I've never seen this man before in my life, boss.

What? Harvey, it's me, George, your partner.

I didn't even know he was gay.

Hey, whoa, I swear, I've never laid eyes on him. Okay, everybody, I'm punked.

Come on, where's the camera? I want this man removed.

Yes, sir, Mr. Johnson.

Harvey, you've got to help me.

What are you guys doing? It's already been done. It's not I can't hear you.

can you hear me now?

What did you say?

Wait.

Can you hear me now?

Can you hear me now?

Can you hear me now?

Right that time.

Are you people trying to go out of business?

Why? What do you mean?

Does this look familiar?

Yo quiero Taco Bell.

This guy is amazing.

Come over here, John.

It's George, sir. Of course. Come over here, George.

We're working on a new beer campaign geared to the African -American

demographic. What's your reaction?

Well, sir.

What's up?

What exactly do you mean?

Uh, what's up?

What's that?

What's that?

I've heard enough.

Brilliant.

George, I want you to go down to personnel right now.

I already work here, sir.

That's right, George. You already work here. But would you mind doing a guy a

favor? Could you go down there and humor me by filling out some paperwork?

If you insist, sir.

Thank you, George.

And George, look.

Your friend Harvey can go down with you.

Don't let him out of your sight. He may be a kook, but he's an advertising thot.

And I want him.

George?

So, Mr.

Murray, you say you've been with us since 2004.

Yeah, spring 2004. And after two years, Harvey Blinton and I started our

partnership. You wouldn't mailroom Harvey?

Yeah, no, I mean, he wasn't mailroom Harvey. Look, my paperwork's got to be

there somewhere.

Okay, okay, Mr. Murray. It's just that I can't seem to find it right now.

So I'm going to fill out some new paperwork today at your start date. Do

think that would be okay, Mr. Murray? Yeah, sure, great. Makes about as much

sense as anything else.

So your new hire date will be...

November 3rd, 1999.

2009?

99. What are you talking about?

See here?

November 3rd, 1999.

Your new start date.

November 3rd, 1999?

Maybe I am crazy.

Can a concussion do this?

My wish, right before the accident, there was the yellow light.

1999.

What's the day?

November 3rd.

I wish I met Jane before she was married. That's exactly what I said.

married yet. The wedding's not until the 6th. I've still got three days.

I've got to get out of here. We can't leave. Mr. Johnson said... Didn't you

me? I've only got three days.

But Mr.

Johnson said... What's up?

laid eyes on each other, we would have fallen madly in love.

So today?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Then we'll definitely be there.

What are you doing here?

Excuse me.

Hi.

I thought you had to be at work.

I did, but I had an unstoppable urge to bring you flowers.

She doesn't even like daisies. I know.

Baby, thank you. I also wanted to tell you that I have to work late again

tonight, so I won't be able to meet you for dinner.

Really? Again?

Yeah, I know. I know I'm overworked, but just think, in a few days we'll be

married and then you'll never, ever get rid of me.

Really?

That's what you think. Are you parking a lot? Yeah.

Uh, may I help you?

Me?

Yeah. Uh, no, I'm, uh...

Yeah, is it the don't throw away?

Yeah. Yeah, I just wanted to say that I really like your paper.

It's got a great energy, practically vibrates right off the page. It really

does, doesn't it? Yeah.

You're here to tell me that?

Yeah, just came down to tell you that. Oh, okay.

Um, it's really so nice to have a fan. You know what? On your way out, why

you grab our next issue? It's the Y2K issue.

Actually, I'm here for the job.

Oh, we don't need any more freelancers. No, no, the paper delivery office job.

Well, that's usually reserved for someone who still lives at home with his

parents. You know, I always wanted to be in the newspaper industry, and I'm

willing to start at the bottom and work my way up.

Okay, but it's not Cary Grant and His Girl Friday. I mean, it would be like,

know, answering phones and errands.

Well, we would be your bosses.

Yeah. Hi, I'm Jane Gardner. Hi, I'm George Murray. I really want to work

and I had a very, very strong feeling when I walked in that this is where I'm

supposed to be. It just feels right.

Hey. How's it going out here?

Good. You finally got me exercising.

Finally? I mean, I'm finally getting my exercise.

Oh, I know.

Unfortunately, you're going to probably get more than your fair share today.

Here's a list of all the delivery locations.

Jane, Loverboy's on the phone. Oh, I'll be right there.

And here is the key.

That's it?

Yeah.

Loverboy's on the phone.

Doing a great job.

Whenever we laid eyes on each other, blah, blah, blah.

Jan,

I know we've only known each other for a few hours, but we're meant to be

together. Drop Doug and marry me.

Sure, I'll give up the guy I've been mad about since college to marry you, an

overgrown circulation engineer.

Jan, I'm not going to beat around the bush. I've come from the future where

we're in love, so we can fall in love in the past.

You must marry me.

That'll work.

Jane, marry me before I have a heart attack.

Yeah, I always found the sympathy approach works best, too. Harvey, what

doing here?

Jonathan sent me to bring you back.

I'm not going back.

After what the big guy saw you do this morning, he won't take no for an answer.

Harvey, that was a mistake. I didn't mean to do that.

What are you talking about? Your ideas are great.

That's the thing, Harvey. They weren't my ideas. They were a whole bunch of

other people's.

I don't like it when the crazy talk starts.

You should show them your ideas. Your ideas are great.

How would you know?

Crazy people know things.

Look, if you change your mind, call me anytime.

Don't you ever move.

I love writing my own horoscope.

All Pisces will be lucky in love and will make beautiful brides.

I'm channeling Pisces right now. Let me do it. Listen to this one.

Don't make any life -changing decisions this month.

And if you already have, stop.

It's all wrong for you. Look around the corner.

Something wonderful is about to... Hey, I'm back.

George!

ages. Yeah, those papers are heavy.

George, sit down and have some pizza with us.

I think there's a little left.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Here. Alright,

so that's it for horse clips, right?

On to predictions.

Okay, I did one of those too and I'm done. Do you want to hear it? Okay.

I predict and my angel guide assures me in the spirit of inclusion and

enlightenment that our next president will Definitely be a woman.

It's her 10 % success rate that gives her such confidence.

I know what you're into, I'm very accurate.

I've got one.

Okay, I predict.

Do you want to try one?

It's not like there are any rules or anything.

I don't think I'd be any good at it.

George, George.

If you want to be in the newspaper business, you have to take assignments

are given to you.

Come on, try one.

Just make it up.

Okay.

How about Paris Hilton does time in the big house?

Sorry.

How about Martha Stewart does time in the big house?

We're not the National Enquirer. I have to be able to print it.

Yeah, it has to be somewhat realistic.

You want to try again?

Okay, let's see.

Arnold Schwarzenegger becomes governor of California.

He doesn't get it. Yeah, it's all right. It's all right. You know what? I should

really get going anyway.

Ben's going to be off work soon, and there's so much to do. We've got a

Saturday. Are you coming in tomorrow?

Half day tomorrow, and then you won't see me slash the honeymoon.

Half day tomorrow, and you're gone?

But you're the only reason I knew what to do today.

Oh, well. Well, Mary can teach me anything you need to know.

Yeah, but I have to be able to get in touch with you. George.

She's getting married.

But work is important too, isn't it?

George, you just need to go home and soak in a hot tub. You look exhausted.

Yeah, that's a good idea. And I'll do that just as soon as I figure out where

I'm going to stay tonight.

You don't have anywhere to stay?

Well, I came into town unexpectedly, and I haven't had a chance to find an

apartment yet.

I have a couch in the back. You can crash on it.

Yeah, that'd be fine.

I mean, I'm not going to be able to take that hot bath that you recommended.

No, that would be okay.

Well, I mean, you can stay at my apartment.

I have a daybed. It's nothing fancy, but, you know, you're welcome to it.

Well, that would be great. Yeah, I mean, getting married. I'm never there

anyway. I'm usually here with Doug or, you know, doing last -minute wedding

stuff. Okay, great. Thank you. Okay, good. Well, I will give you a lift then.

Yeah.

Bye.

What?

You don't like my driving?

No, no, your driving's fine. Just remind me of someone.

God, I always get that.

I guess I have one of those faces, you know?

No, I don't think so. Your face is definitely an original.

In fact, I've never seen another quite like you.

Nope.

Hurry, there's the light. You've got to make it.

Sorry.

Your ticket's last year.

Oh, George, before I forget, I gave you my spare key.

It's going to be upstairs, number four, at the end of the hall.

Are you going to come up?

Oh, no, no, I can't. I've got to meet Doug.

Oh, well, thank you. You've been as kind as I thought you'd be.

Oh, no worries.

Make yourself at home. Take a hot bath. Get some sleep.

Oh, and help yourself to anything in the kitchen. Just check the expiration

date.

I know.

What?

I will.

Not this time around.

So, Doug sent me my very, very favorite flowers in the world.

Now, what do you have to say for yourself, huh?

I say they are beautiful.

And I say they're not from Doug.

Of course they are. Who else would they be from?

Morning, Jake.

Him?

Wait, you brought me flowers?

Oh, I just wanted to thank you for letting me stay at your place last

Did she tell you I love calla lilies?

Not guilty.

I love them, too. I couldn't resist.

Aren't they the most beautiful?

Thank you.

I got some pastries, too, here.

Oh, yeah? Yeah.

Oh, my God. I love these chocolate twisty things.

They're so amazing.

You should pop one of my favorite dinners, too.

Coincidence. Hey, did Doug call?

No. Not that I know of.

There's so much to do, I'm freaking out.

Like what?

Mike, I'm getting married on Saturday, and we haven't even gotten gifts for the

wedding party. As soon as he calls, we're going to go shopping. See ya.

Got your coffee, too.

Oh, you know what?

I'm really picky about my coffee. Sorry.

Double espresso, whole milk, three sugars? I hope that's okay.

people listen to anything I say?

You've got exactly two hours to come up with something fresh and original.

Anything that doesn't belong in a shredder.

Go! There you are. Well, where is he?

Mr. Johnson, I tried. I really did.

Can't anybody do anything right around here?

Actually, I know this may be a bit out of the ordinary, but I was thinking I

might have some sketches you might like.

Looking to get out of the mail room.

Are we? Is it everybody?

Tell you what.

Either you bring that genius back here in time for the two o 'clock meeting or

you can consider yourself out of the mail room permanently.

Understand?

Then why are you still here?

Hey, where are you going? Do you deliver your mail already?

I'm on some special assignment for Johnson. Such a jerk. Yeah.

Well, you want me to make your deliveries for you? You're kidding,

Yeah, sure. It's no problem.

Don't worry about a thing.

They don't throw away. Can I help you?

Yeah, let me talk to Jane. It's Doug.

Um, she's not here right now. Can I take a message?

Yeah, it's Doug. Tell her I'm ready to meet her.

Um, bad.

Can't.

Can't hear.

What?

Hello?

Hello?

They're beautiful.

I know, aren't they?

So sweet of him to bring them.

Well, that's why he's here. To bring you flowers and Danish and the perfect cup

of coffee.

He's here because he's a bit of an eccentric and he doesn't seem to mind

grossly underpaid.

Don't throw it away. Can I help you? Yeah, you can. I want to speak to...

Yeah. Hello?

I said tell Jane that... I can't hear you. Call back.

That was Doug. It was a really bad connection, but I think he said that he

completely unavailable and that you should go on without him, and then his

completely died.

Oh, no.

I have no idea what I'm going to get for these Usher gifts.

Well, I could help you. I've been an Usher before. I know what Usher's like.

And you could go with her and I will stay here and man the phones.

Really, would you? Oh, you guys, that would be great. That would be so great.

I'm going to get an advance from petty cash for you so that while you're out

shopping, maybe you could stop at the men's department and buy something new.

Huh.

See this one here?

Oh, the blue?

Yeah.

That's like one of our colors.

Here.

Oh. Okay.

It's, um... It's perfect.

I'll take three.

Do you wrap them? Sure.

Oh, that'd be great. Thank you.

Thank you for finding it. I owe you one.

Sure, now on to the usher gifts. Yes, and then we can get down to these

You found the perfect thing. I'm really pleased.

So now on to the usher gifts and everything... Oh, thank God I found you.

you have to come back to the agency with me right now. Are you following me?

No, your office told me where you'd be, and I've been looking everywhere for

you. Yeah, Harvey, I'm not coming back. I told you. Plus, I'm kind of busy right

now. Hi.

Uh... Jane, Harvey, Harvey, this is Jane.

Hi there.

Jane, I've only got three days.

Nice seeing you again, Harvey, but we need to get going. Jane, Jane, Jane,

you have to help me.

If I don't get him back to the office right now, my boss is going to fire me.

Oh, my God.

George, you should go. I can do the extra gifts on my own. No, no, no, no, I

want to help you. All you have to do is spend ten minutes astounding Mitsubishi

while I just...

bask in the glow of your heroism, and then you're out of there. Mr. Bishy,

today's the Mr. Bishy meeting?

Yeah, in like 20 minutes.

All right, we need to get there before someone puts their sticky fingers in

sketches. My sketches?

No, Johnson wants you at the meeting. All right. You guys seem like you're

really busy. I'm going to get going. No, no, Jane, Jane, could you come with us?

No, no, no, I have so much to do. We really, we need your help. Plus, it's

only one.

What? Come on. Are you sure it's going to be fast?

Oh, yes!

He came back.

Look, Johnson's on a tear.

He thinks he's going to lose some big campaign and he's blaming it all on you.

What? Yeah.

What do I do? Get the heck out of here. Don't show your face again until

tomorrow. Go.

I'll cover for you.

They're right where I left them. You didn't tell anybody I was here, right?

I did just what you told me to. Good.

These are, um... Awful.

Really? I mean, I know a few are... Oh, my God!

No, no, this... These aren't my... Oh, no!

No, these aren't mine. I would never draw the... Oh!

That's why Jack was so anxious to get rid of me.

He switched them.

How did you know?

Because I know that creep from a long time ago.

And he's finally about to get his.

You okay?

Oh, yeah. Thank you. You're welcome.

Is

Harvey

Blinton back?

Uh, no, sir.

Three martini lunch.

Yeah. Uh, I hate to say it, but I think he may be in need of your very generous

employee rehab program.

Well, in that case, I guess this is your lucky day. I guess so.

After

you.

No, please. I said no, please.

Arigato. That was some first -rate work, boys.

First thing tomorrow morning, see me in my office. The martinis are on me.

And so are the promotions.

Thank you, sir.

Promotions? I guess it went pretty well in there, huh?

Yeah, five, six, seven, eight.

Right, I haven't taught you that yet.

So I have to say, today felt very Mission Impossible.

It was fun.

But I still don't get how you knew what to do.

On Mission Impossible, I'm Mr. Phelps, and Mr.

Phelps knows what to do.

And you, you were an extremely attractive, highly intelligent, totally

distracting femme fatale.

Okay, but what can I get for you?

Oh, I, uh...

Okay, Dr. Bubula, what can I get for you? I'm going to have the burger and

fries.

Go ahead, Jane. You love burgers. Just get one.

Stop doing that.

Stop reading my mind. Oh, honey, don't scold them for the things they do right.

You know, my husband, he didn't care if I ordered a pizza, burger, or the dog

food platter. Oh, no, we're not married.

Well, hang on to this one, Toots. He's a rarity.

A man who wants to make you happy.

Thank you, Marianne. I will keep that in mind. But in the meantime, can I have

the cock salad, please?

Thank you for your wisdom, Marianne.

Yours was better.

I told you. I know. I should have had the burger.

Burger.

I got you something.

Wow. Thank you. You're welcome.

Does this mean I'm in the wedding now?

No.

Well, it's just when we found them for the ushers, you said you always wanted

one, so... Thanks.

That's really sweet.

Hi, Bubba Lynn.

Oh, thanks.

So, George, you can't really turn down that advertising job, can you? No.

Seriously?

To deliver papers?

Well, maybe I'll get a promotion.

Maybe you'll become the next Dear Abby.

Sounds good to me.

Right now, I wish I was a little more Elizabeth Barrett Browning, but... Why

that?

Sort of trying to write Doug a poem for the ceremony, and it's not going well.

Turns out it's a lot harder than one would think.

You know, he's not going to like it if it's too romantic or mushy.

Well, maybe I could help.

Really?

Okay, go ahead.

Something not too mushy for an unromantic groom. Okay, I didn't say

You know, not too much.

All right.

Roses are red.

Violets are blue.

I hadn't met my soulmate when I said I'd marry you.

Maybe a little mushier than that.

More mushier? Yeah, a little bit.

Well,

it may not be verse, but here goes.

If I was marrying the woman of my dreams on Saturday, I would tell her that she

is the only woman in the world with whom I could spend the rest of my life.

And that once I found her, we'd really have no choice.

But to be together, no matter the place, no matter the time.

Lucky girl.

But Marianne, boy, she had a lot to say, huh? She was the talker.

Where, uh, where did you find the light? Right here. Oh, right there.

Doug! What are you doing here?

Waiting for you.

Oh, I'm so sorry. Have you been here long?

Long enough.

Well, don't be mad. We were just... We found great gifts for the wedding party.

We got these great necklaces for the bridesmaids and these utility knives for

the ushers.

We?

Yeah. I went with George.

George from the office.

Well, we should get going anyway to your place, right, babe? I mean, we have to

finalize the seating chart and all that.

But let's get some dinner first. I am starving.

Oh, me too. I'm starving.

Well, thank you, George, for all the help. No problem.

And, you know, don't worry about work. You'll be fine.

Thanks, Jane. You've been nothing but kind.

We should be going.

Yes, of course.

Goodbye.

Bye, Jane.

Bye.

We've got our eyes on you.

Yeah. It's me, Jane.

Hold on.

What's going on? What happened? Sorry.

Oh, sorry. I feel so stupid coming here like this.

It's your apartment. I just, I didn't know where to go, and I was driving

around, and it just made me feel worse, so.

You know what? Sit, sit, sit.

Thank you. You want some water?

Wine, please.

Yep. In one of the bigger classes, please.

I'm sorry. This is so embarrassing.

What's going on?

Just Doug and I are fighting about everything.

Like what?

Like my letting you stay here.

He said you're trying to take advantage of me.

What did you say?

Nothing. I wanted to defend you, but I just... I just thought it would be

to let it blow over, you know?

To my assertiveness training.

And then in the middle of everything, he got beeped and had to go back to work.

You believe him?

I want to believe I'm not just such an idiot, you know? I mean, I always end up

apologizing anyway after we fight.

Can I have some more wine, please?

Sure thing, Janie.

Nobody... Nobody calls me Janie anymore.

I like it.

Here you go, Janie.

Is it with you?

Where did you come from?

I've never met anyone like you.

It's just me.

Okay, that doesn't mean anything. I want to know what your story is.

I mean, smart, funny, great -looking guy just waltzes into town with a shirt on

his back. Where did you come from? I'm a lost soul traveling through time trying

to pick up the pieces of my shattered life.

Oh, God.

Please, none of this new age crap. I get enough of that from Mary. Please, tell

me. In concrete, earthbound terms.

What are you doing here?

I got my heart broken. I skipped town.

Really?

I lost the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

After her first marriage to a guy that was completely wrong for her, she was

scared to death to do it again.

But I was so sure about us.

I convinced her she had to be my wife.

While I was off celebrating our engagement, she was sinking into a hole

know existed.

And one day she was gone.

Beautiful, smart, funny.

A little nutty.

No one ever made me feel the way she did.

So sad.

She broke my heart.

You're too sweet, baby. You are, bro.

a little better now.

Maybe you'll fall in love again.

I think so.

You're romantic.

I like that.

I do it.

Maybe I just had the most vivid dream.

Weird, too.

Hello?

Doug?

No, no, I... I just woke up.

No, I'm fine. I'm fine. I just...

I had a few glasses of wine last night and just fell asleep.

He went to a hotel.

You are?

No, I'm just surprised to hear you say that.

Well, I'm sorry, too. I'm so sorry. I really should have just stayed there

and waited for you last night. I overreacted.

I think I have the dinners, too. I can't believe it's tomorrow.

Okay, well, I'll just see you at the rehearsal at four, then.

Oh, no, shoot. I forgot to pick up my wedding shoes from the office, and I

really need them, and I... You can, really?

Oh, no, that would be so great.

Okay.

Okay, thanks so much.

All right, I'll see you then.

Yeah, you too.

Bye.

So that's it? One, I'm sorry and everything's fine?

Oh, come on, George.

Everybody fights before their wedding. That's just what happens. You know, he

said he was sorry. He said he had to work late and I believe him. Why do you

believe him?

Because we've been together a really long time.

What does that matter? You weren't so willing to believe everything last

Forget about last night. I don't want to forget about last night, Jane. Hey,

something was happening last night.

Okay, last night, you and I drank some wine, shot the breeze, and fell asleep.

That's it, okay?

I'm getting married tomorrow, and I really have a lot of things I gotta take

care of. You're not in love with him.

George, I... I really gotta go.

George!

Pick up the phone!

Then don't throw away.

Mary speaking.

Hello?

Uh,

George, when the phone rings, you're supposed to answer it.

I'm sorry, did the phone ring?

Uh, yeah, it was.

Are you okay?

I can't stop thinking about Jane.

I knew it. Is it that obvious?

Well, you see, with my psychic abilities, I could tell from the

you were deeply connected. In fact, I would say that you probably loved each

other very much in a past life.

Future.

Future? We love each other in a future life.

Future lives?

Why don't I know about these?

Sit down, Mary. You're going to be the first to hear all about it.

I knew that you were destined to be together.

In the past, I had doubts about my predictions.

But not anymore.

This is proof.

I can tell the future.

Well, you were right about Doug, too. Today, when he's supposed to be at the

wedding rehearsal, he's actually upstairs in the honeymoon suite messing

with the wedding coordinator.

I was right about him, too?

Oh, but that's awful. You know, Jane said she wished somebody would have

her upstairs and shown her who Doug really was before she got married.

Why don't you? Well, I don't want to break her heart. There's got to be an

easier way.

Well, does she know how you feel about her?

She couldn't miss it.

Did you tell her?

Well, I didn't tell her right out exactly.

She's due for a final fitting at Westwood Bridal.

Like, now.

All right, I'm going to tell her exactly how I feel about it. Yes.

You know what? If the wedding's not canceled by 4 o 'clock this afternoon,

could be my date to the rehearsal dinner tonight. Okay.

Okay? And then, together, we could take Jane up to the bridal suite and show her

that Doug started the honeymoon without her. Yeah. I mean, it'll sting.

But it's not going to sting as much as if she married that jerk.

Love will prevail. It has to. Yeah. And if it doesn't, the future is on your

side.

Woo! The future.

George.

May I come in?

Um, sir.

Excuse us.

What are you doing here?

I really wanted to see you.

Mary told me you'd be here.

I'm glad you came.

I wanted to see you too. I'm sorry I snapped at you this morning.

It wasn't fair.

You look incredible.

You think?

Yeah, like a picture.

I love my dress.

Have you been practicing your first dance?

Oh, no.

God, no.

Doug thinks it's torture.

You could practice with me.

We don't have any music.

I think of you every morning.

My parents used to dance to that song.

I used to think it was so embarrassing.

And darling, I'm never lonely.

Whenever you're inside.

No, I think it's romantic.

I love you for a fundamental reason.

I hope you do believe me.

I've given you mine.

You don't need any practice. You're a wonderful dancer.

Jane, I'm in love with you.

George, timing is everything.

You're not married yet.

I can't.

Maybe if we had met earlier or under different circumstances.

Marry me tomorrow.

I don't even know you.

You don't know me. I could never do that to Doug. Why not? Why are you so loyal

to him? He's a liar and a cheat.

That's enough. Please.

Please. You shouldn't even be here.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. I'm just absolutely certain that you are

making a very, very bad decision.

Look, Doug is going to be my husband.

And you are going to be that...

A really great guy I met right before I got married.

Okay, so stop making me miserable, please.

You're miserable because you know I'm right. You're miserable because you're

about to marry a guy who doesn't know you hate daisies or how you take your

coffee. You have to leave, George.

This isn't the marriage you dreamed of. We are.

George. I'm not going to sit by and watch you make a mistake.

You don't have to. You're not invited.

Go.

Please go.

I didn't realize my maid of honor was bringing a date.

I'm sorry to do this to you here now, but there's something you need to know

about Doug, and it just can't wait.

You just don't give up, do you?

Do you even know where Doug is?

He's running late. He'll be here any minute.

Jane, he's upstairs in the honeymoon suite with another woman.

You brought him here to tell me that.

Jane.

Doc is cheating on you. I didn't want to have to tell you, but you need to know

the truth before you get married.

I do know the truth.

Prove us wrong, then.

Let's go upstairs.

If you're so sure he's not upstairs with another woman, then come with us. I

mean, what could it hurt?

Fine. Fine. You want me to go up there? Let's get it over with.

Now, remember, Jane, you're not alone. We're right here with you.

Honey, you're ruining the surprise.

Surprise?

Your wedding present.

Oh, my God. You got me a present? I didn't get you anything.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, look. Your friends from the office.

Hey.

I think they were just leaving.

Honey, I'm so sorry, but I forgot to pick up the wedding party gifts from

place. Oh, no. We got to pass those out tonight. I know.

Oh, maybe George here wouldn't mind running over there and getting them for

Me? Yeah, you did pick them out.

Oh, I'm sure Jane would really appreciate it if you could do that for

Sure, whatever. It's fine.

That was so embarrassing. I don't understand what happened

unless somehow Doug knew we were coming.

Maybe he's from a little further into the future than you. Huh, George?

This is so sweet of you.

Let's see what we got here.

What is this?

An IOU?

Exactly. IOU, the wedding present of your choice. This way you can go out and

get whatever you want.

Now, don't worry. There'll be plenty of time for you to get me a gift, too.

Okay.

Well, we should probably get down there, huh? They're probably ready for us.

Yeah, why don't you go first? I should check in with the office before we

Okay?

Okay, but don't be too long, all right? I won't.

All right. See you down there.

Yes, hello, I'd like to report a robbery.

My girlfriend's keys were recently stolen and her neighbor just called

someone suspicious was trying to get into the house.

Just a minute, honey.

Yes, 1408 3rd Avenue, apartment number 4.

Exactly. Can you send a car over there right away, please?

honeymoons are you planning to have in here, darling?

Just as many as I can get, sugar.

Honestly, we don't have time for this.

They're all downstairs waiting. You don't want an uncoordinated wedding

you. I'll take my chances.

I know.

that George and I look like idiots up there.

But I'm telling you, Doug is nothing.

Where is George, anyway?

He didn't even come back with a gift.

I know. That's kind of late.

Maybe he was just too embarrassed to come back.

Well, he should be.

I mean, how could you believe something as ridiculous as Doug and the wedding

coordinator? George told me.

He is very intuitive. George knows things.

Well, he certainly knows you.

Well, he was wrong tonight, wasn't he?

Unfortunately.

So my maid of honor is sorry that my fiancé is not cheating on me.

You're fired.

Fired. Ah, what a relief. Now I don't have to hold my tongue.

Hold your tongue?

Every other word out of your mouth is some wisecrack about Doug.

Yeah, but I never really got to say what I needed to say because this whole maid

of honor thing tripped me up.

But now, George is here, and I'm fired.

So here it goes.

I know what it's like to be alone.

I know what it's like to want someone in your life.

I know what it's like to just take anyone because you just can't believe

anything better is going to come along.

Mary, you will find someone. I know you will.

We are not talking about me.

Don't settle for Doug.

Especially now that you've glimpsed a future in which there is the kind of

most of us will only dream about.

Doug! Jane!

You two should be up here practicing for tomorrow.

Oh, Daddy, you know Doug hates to dance.

And besides, I already practiced earlier at my fitting.

You and your dress danced together at the bridal shop?

No.

George was there, and I was in my dress, and the moment just sort of

took over.

Are you a good partner?

Yes, he is.

He can dance? Yes, he can.

And he's great to his friends, and he's...

Loyal and charming and kind and attentive and... Jean.

George loves you.

He really loves you.

And wherever or whenever he's from, there's no

denying that.

You and George are made for each other.

Fantasy, Mary.

George is a fantasy.

Doug is reality.

George is three days. Doug is five years. George is impulse and

intuition. And Doug is... Doug is what?

Oh, my...

Empty your pockets, put everything on the counter, please.

Jane rang.

And now, it's mine.

Hey, when do I get to make my phone call?

What about my phone call?

Where's my public defender?

Hey! Hey, man, I know my rights.

I've been in here two weeks. Could you get me a phone call?

Two weeks? I don't have two weeks. Hey!

Hey, somebody get me out of here!

Hey!

In a couple hours, she's going to be marrying this guy, Doug, okay? And she's

not in love with Doug, believe me. She's in love with me. So I've got to put a

stop to it.

Which is why I've got to get out of here!

Come on, man! Hey, big mouth.

Detectives want to see you.

Let's go.

Is it all right?

Mm -hmm. Is it centered?

Yeah. Hold on. Okay. Thank you.

Honeymoon suite.

Maid of honor speaking.

George?

What happened?

Where are you?

Jail?

Um, yeah, hold on. She's right here.

George? What is going on?

I got arrested for burglary. Somebody reported your apartment key stolen and

sent the police there just as I was walking out with the gifts.

Oh, my God. Who would do something like that?

Well, Doug is on the short list of suspects.

Look, George, I don't know what happened, but I'm so sorry.

I'll send someone to bail you out just as soon as the ceremony's over.

Jane, listen to me. I've got something very important I need to tell you now.

Okay, George, I'm listening.

You and I are destined to be together.

In ten years, we're going to be engaged.

George. The fiancé, the one I told you about, the one who broke my heart, she's

you.

gonna sound crazy, but I've come from the future where we're in love to stop

from marrying the wrong man.

Okay, listen, George, I really can't do this.

Before I came here, you told me Doug was having an affair with a wedding

coordinator. You even told me that he had the nerve to wink at her during the

ceremony. You ignored it then. Jane, please don't ignore it this time.

I'll send someone as soon as I can, okay?

Goodbye, George.

Can I make another phone call?

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Thanks, man.

Yeah, don't be nervous, y 'all.

Got it. Let's go. We gotta get to the wedding.

Okay, everyone, here we go.

Little flower girl, go on down. Okay, this is it.

Move along.

Brad May?

Listen, as soon as it's over, go to our chat.

I will take care of everything. Don't worry. Okay. Okay, goodbye.

You know what? I'm going.

Wait for me at the main entrance.

And thanks for bailing me out, buddy.

Hey.

Thanks for bailing me out of the mail room.

Jane, Doug, you're here today with your loved ones and your friends all around

you because you have decided to make your precious union a permanent one.

Did you get George arrested?

Did you get George arrested? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Is everything all right? Of course it is. Please, please go on. So you didn't

it then? Of course not. Why would I do something like that?

Okay, sorry.

All right, go ahead.

Okey -dokey, then.

I'd like you to turn to one another so that throughout the ceremony you can

into the eyes of the one with whom you have chosen above all others to spend

your life.

I'd like you to repeat after me as you put the ring on Jane's finger these

words.

With this ring, as a symbol of my undying love, I be wed.

With this ring, as a symbol of my undying love, I be wed.

What was that?

What?

You winked at her.

I had something in my eye. Oh my God, no, I saw you. You, you winked at her.

Jane! Stop.

Don't do it. George. George, you were right. He did it. He winked at her. I

something in my eye.

Oh, I love you, Jane.

Oh, God. I know this is completely insane, but I love you, too.

Jane Lucy Gardner, will you marry me?

Yes. Yes, a thousand times, yes.

Incoming!

Wait a second.

It's my grandmother's ring.

It's your engagement ring.

From the future.

That's it. I'm gonna kill him.

Okay.

Okay. Sorry, excuse me.

Arby, quick, Mickey.

Oh, thank you.

So I guess we've gotten engaged twice now. Yeah, talk about playing hard to

Bye.

Thank you.

Of course he did.

You can't stop faith.

Hold on.

It's time to finally lose that guy for good.

Careful, I've got the key.

What are you doing?

Yellow light, make a wish.

Make a wish?

I wish you wouldn't go through the light.

We're not going to make it.

You did it.

You did it.

Hold on!

George?

George, are you all right?

What?

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. I'm not the one who fainted.

What's going on?

Are you getting married? No, Jane, Jane, don't get married. It's wrong.

Wait a minute.

I'm the groom, aren't I?

I'm the groom. Baby, we don't have to do this if we don't want to. I think you

must have really bumped your head when you fainted. No, no, I'm feeling great.

I'm just getting used to it.

I'm George Murray.

We're at the Stonehouse Inn, and the year is 2009?

Okay. All right. No time like the present.

Okay.

Jane, George. Wait a minute. No, wait a minute. What? Jane, no. No, I have

something to say.

Before I met you, I didn't think a love like ours was possible.

And then there you were.

You told me our love was real and that it would last, and you were right.

I just want to say I have never loved anyone the way I love you.

So the answer to your question is I do.

And now George.

I do. I absolutely do. Does that mean we're married now? Of course you're

married, George.

And may I say I can't think of a more beautiful way for you to celebrate your

10th wedding anniversary than by this renewal of your vows. Thank you.

10 years?

10 years, baby.

You may now kiss the wife.

Feeling better? Much. Feeling great.

I want a foul renewal.

You too?

It's so great.

I've got a card from the office for you. I think almost everyone signed it. Even

Johnson? Not from Johnson's office, George.

It's from ours.

Blinton and Murray?

Blinton and Murray?

Harvey, that's fantastic!

Okay. Wow. Only one thing would make you stay more perfect.

Got the car all ready for the happy couple. Now it's right back to the

for me.

Mailrooms don't run themselves. Right, boss?

Right, right.

That was it.

Harvey. Sweetheart.

Good luck, George.

Pleasure. Bye, everybody.

Bye.

Thank you.

Janie, make all my wishes come true.

You're very sweet, you know.

Just in case.

I think I'll do the driving

Thank you.
