i expect you all to do me proud in Vegas.

One day down.
We're never gonna be ready.

We'll rehearse later.

- Let's have some fun.
- Steve, i didn't see your name

I wouldn't get your hopes up too high.
I've only had four lessons.

Hell, you only compete against your own level.
What are you scared of?

I'll have to talk
to Ruby about it.

Good.
You'll be going then.

Stefano, put on some music.

This is supposed to be a dance studio.
Grouch!

Cha-cha time! *

Let's go get you settled.

bye, Rafael.
Ciao, lovejoy.

Ciao. He's cute.

John, thank you
for helping me.

There wasn't much
to it.

Don't mention it.

I was really sorry
to hear about your mother.

She was
a beautiful woman.

So, is your father
still in Cuba?

No.
He is long gone.

Well, hell.
Roberta's son in Texas!

Truly amazing.

Bus stops at the corner.
It'll take you right to the studio.

Thank you.

Wow, what a big house!

It was
my parents' place.

Do you have
a family?

You just met 'em.

Enough whining and
carrying on goes on there...

To give me all
i ever want of a family.

Here's an advance
to get you to payday.

I'm gonna take the rent
out of your salary.

We'll both make out
better that way.

We should go
and have a drink together.

I'll take a rain check.
I gotta get back. Come on.

Bring your suitcase.

You'll be staying up there.

When my folks were around,
i used to go back there to be alone.

It's a great
little place.

You'll find
everything you need.

Lovejoy'll fill you in
about work tomorrow.

Just enjoy your first night
in the U.S. of a.

The lock's
a little sticky.

John. Thank you.

Glad to be of service.

And two, and three,
and kick.

Two, three.

And one, two, three-- back, and here,
and great, great.

And here, here--
right.

Sorry.

Michael.
I'm sorry.

It's okay. Let's do it again.
Crossover's here. Cross, one.

Two, three, four,
and one.

Ronde and three, four.

And three and four.

I'm sorry, are you all right?
That's the perfect place for it.

What, the step
or the butt?

Joke, joke.
And--

Okay, here.
One, two, pow.

Yoo-hoo! Michael Michaels!
Telephone, honey.

Thank god!

Get up here, lover boy.

Three times today.
Oh, jeez.

Hiya. Mm-hmm.

No, it's going all right.

No, I can just pick it up
on the way home.

Ruby, I'm going out
for a smoke.

Okay. You smoke
too much, baby doll.

How do you dance
with no music?

It's choreography.

I see.

Cha-cha.

That's cha-cha-cha?
Uh-huh.

I compete professionally
in the Latin dances.

I-I've never seen a Latin dance that looks like that.

Stick around.

How do you dance without music?
It comes from the music.

I'm sure that's why
you look so stiff.

You should play some music.
You would feel better.

I would?

Yeah!

And what do you know
about professional,

international-style
Latin dancing?

I'm Latin,
but I never heard of that.

Then I wouldn't talk to professionals about it.

*

keep your heads up.

John, finalists
from the u.S.D.C.

Thought you might want
to see.

Okay. Thank you!

See you next week.
Mm-hmm.

Eighteen.

I'll shut that off.

No, no.
I can handle it.

Maybe I'll steal
some of his moves.

You know, they broke up.

She's dancing
with gino now.

Couple number 33,
Julian Marshall and Melissa Dexter.

Good for her.

'Course, she hasn't won
anything since.

Son of a bitch has always been
too good for his own good.

Well, Michael is
really coming along.

Yeah, he's looking
better every day.

Julian Marshall
and Melissa Dexter.

Six years is a long time.
I gotta come back this year.

Did anybody see my 4:00?
Right here.

I'm gonna drop these in the
mailbox and make the deposit.

Will you order me some food?
No.

Let's go eat, gang.

Rafael, honey?

We could sure use some decoratin' for the party tonight.

There's some more stuff
in the closet.

It starts at 9:00.
Thanks, shug.

Hello?
Can anybody hear me?

Coming, Ruby?
No, I've got to run home.

Okay, see you later.
Good-bye, lovejoy.

Bye.
Let's go, let's go, let's go!

I'm coming, I'm coming!
I'm starving.

What's the special tonight?
I'm going to try the meat loaf.

The meat loaf tasted like dog food.
It was.Hey, Ruby.

Hey.

John, you would enjoy Nietzsche.
Oh, boy.

Who?
One of the great philosophers.

I've begun to study him.
Someone should study you.

Someone should.

God help us.
Someone should.

Oh, wow!

What the hell is this?

How fun!

Oh, my lord!

Who's responsible
for this?

Guess I am. I asked Rafael to decorate.
Oh, look at this!

What the hell
was he thinking?

This isn't Christmas, or Halloween,
or easter, for crying out loud.

Well, I guess you're gonna have to
take me out and horsewhip me now.

John, he's from
a different country.

Thanks, Ruby.
That's very helpful.

If people could just do
what they're supposed to do.

Magnificent!
It's just decorations!

I think it's beautiful.

Mademoiselle?

* Let's get lost

* lost in each other's arms

* let's get lost

* let them send out alarms

* and though they'll think us
rather rude

* let's tell the world

* we're in that crazy mood

* let's defy

* all the romantic myths how's your drink?
Is it all right?

* Let's get crossed

I love
your decorating!

It looks so beautiful!
Gracias.

I could be ginger Rogers tonight
in a big musical dance movie.

I'm bea.
Bea, I'm Rafael.

Hi!
It's a pleasure to meet you, ginger.

Oh!
Would you like to dance?

I would love to dance with you,
but I don't know this dancing.

Well, I didn't start
until I was 67.

Come on.
I'll show you.

I-i don't think I should.
I'm not a teacher.

You're not gonna hurt
my feelings, are you?

No.
Come on.

Excuse me,

Give me some space.
Come along. Here.

No, that's okay.
Okay.

Well, that was
a start.

Miss?
Hey, nice work, man.

Bea, it's me!
Oh, Michael!

We have these parties
every week.

Most of these decorations
are meant for holidays.

You understand?

The place looks nice.
You should keep it this way.

Your customers like it.

You know, your job
really ends at 7:00.

You don't have
to hang around.

I-i don't mind.

Hmm.

I bet you really miss her.

Were you ever married?

Once, for 10 days.

I didn't like it much.

Did your mother
keep singin'?

Just for enjoyment.

She taught english.

Boy, she could sing.

Did you know we worked
on an Italian cruise ship?

She packed the house
every night.

I'd give a little dance class,
but they were there to hear her.

Take one.

We'll have
some Cuban rum.

You were her first love.

She wrote a song.
She used to sing it to me.

A song?

She always did tend
to overdo things.

You're not gonna sing it,
are you? No.

I don't think so.

Salud!
Here's to ya!

Fish been runnin'
pretty good all week.

If I can beat this cold front,
i might get a couple.

I fished a lot
in Santiago.

Well, you'll like
Texas, then.

I'll smoke this
on the way to the coast.

Vroom, vroom!
Vroom, vroom!

Peter, sweetie,
not on my costumes.

That's daddy!

Hello?
It's me.

Who?

Me, Rafael.
How did you get this number?

Directory assistance.

What are you doing?
Hold on.

Oh, Mr. Sparkles,
what are you doing?

Here, look.
Watch your daddy, okay? Okay.

Uh, sorry.

You're not alone.
I'm sorry.

Um, no. I'm alone.

You know when you said
you owed me one?

Well, don't let it go
to your head.

Did you mean it
or not?

Uh, exactly what did you have
in mind?

I want you to take me dancing.
Tonight?

No! No, no.

Tomorrow. I don't like
to move too fast.

Too fast going where?

Hola. Que les traigo?
Dos mojitos.

Dos mojitos?
Si.

Sabes que hace tiempo que no he oido de esa bebida.
Usted es cubano.

Si, si.

Have you ever had
a mojito?

No.
I hardly ever drink.

Of course not.
You've never had a Cuban drink.

I've never had
a Cuban anything.

You did something different
to your hair?

What do you mean?
I-i-it's more... poofy?

Poofy?
Yeah.

Puffy?
Puffy, yeah-- puffy.

Yeah, like--
like a hat.

Are you kidding?
Yes, I am.

This way.

Your fly's open.

I bet it is.

Tu zipper esta abierto.

Shall we dance?

Okay.

Do you mambo?

You mean,
the way you do?

Well, yeah, mambo.
You-you are Latin, aren't you?

Yes, yes,
but i don't know what you do.

Well, I'll show you
the basics really quick.

You're gonna break on the two beat.
Break?

Yeah. Start with your left
on the two,

just a little
ball-change, okay?

One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four. One, two--

no, it's on the two.

You did the one.
Two. Okay.

One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.

Okay, wait.
You want to learn, or--

sure, sure, sure.

One, two, three, four.
One, two, three-- I'm sorry.

You know, I don't know
what you are doing.

You know-- why don't we take a break?

I'm gonna go to the ladies' room.
Okay.

Y ahora, damas y caballeros,
d.L.G.

Senorita, baile conmigo?

Dance, honey?

I need to go.
What?

I need to go now!
Why?

Hi.

I don't want to play games with you.

You wanted to go dancing,
you danced.

Just leave it at that.

It was a two-hour bus ride.

But I forgive you.

Oh, you forgive me, huh?
We didn't go together.

We had a date.
Oh, it wasn't a date.

We just went dancing and you
made me feel like an idiot...

'Cause you said you couldn't dance.
No, no, no.

I said I couldn't do
what you do.

I don't know what
change-ball means.

The music tells me
how to dance.

It's ball-change.

I'm Cuban.
Of course I know how to dance.

Here's your ticket.

I don't like people
laughing at me.

I've been left on my ass one too
many times to think it's funny.

Ruby, I didn't mean
to insult you at the club.

I apologize if I did.

I was--

I was just trying
to have fun with you.

A little rum, a little dancing,
a little jokes.

I didn't know
that would be so hard.

It will never happen again.

Ciao.

No, let me count, okay?
That's too quick!

One more day
closer to Vegas!

No, no.
You lead and let me count.

No, honey, no.
I need to start it because I have to lead.

You lead,
but let me count.

But I'll lead-- no, see, I have to start.
Then you start counting.

Stop!

Stop it!

Mr. And Mrs. Harrington,
i come from the blood of Spanish kings.

I am not a marriage counselor.
He stepped all over my feet.

No, sue, you stepped on mine!
No, no, no, no, no, no!

Dancing is fun.
Did you have fun at the party?

Kind of.
I did.

Who's fault was that?

Exactly. Dancing is always fun.
There are no mistakes.

Come, let me show you
something exciting.

Here we go, and
one, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.

Ooh!
One, two, three, four.

One, that's good! Yes!
We're good.

Yes!
I'm just supposed to rehearse by myself?

He'd rather go fishing!

How are we supposed to win
if we never practice together?

He's not the only game
in town.

You're right.
I say we burn the place down.

Any luck?

Wind shifted
with the front.

Mosquitoes everywhere.
Fish nowhere.

Can I ask you who's in charge
of the studio when you're gone?

What happened now?

Well,
Patricia was yelling,

the toilet overflowed,
and a mirror fell down and broke.

Seven more years
of shit!

I cleaned it all up.
Good.

Here.

If it fits, keep it.

Thank you.

It's cold today.
Gracias.

You bet.

That your truck?

What's left of it.

Two eighty-nine?

Yeah.

'Course, I added a holley carb and a hurst shifter.

Racing cam?
You bet.

She used to fly.

I could fix it.

Fix it?

Nah, I don't think so.

I used to love foolin' around
with this old thing, though.

I could make it
good again.

It needs some
major work.

Hell, the wheels
are even rusted through.

I've got the time.

So I take the number 12
to Jefferson?

Then, the number 6, okay.

I take that downtown
to what?

So when I get out of town,
i get off at county line.

How many blocks i need to walk?
Fifteen?

Think I don't know
what you're up to?

Is it working?

Where is your family?

I'm it.

Where did you grow up?
Nowhere.

My father was
in the army.

Ahh.

We moved around a lot.
Always the new girl in school.

This place has parts
for old trucks.

Here, here.
Seven-one-five, right here.

That's it? Si, yeah.
Give me one second, si?

Okay.

Beep, beep!

They must have gone
to eat.

If you don't mind,
we could wait a little while?

Okay.

Hey, burrito, chica?

I'm starving.

That's okay? *

Mmm.
Muy bien.

Mmm.
Mm-hmm?

Mm-hmm.

Is this anything
like Cuba?

No.

It doesn't feel
like an island.

Mmm.

You know, I've always wanted
to live by the water.

Mm-hmm?

It's a beautiful song.

Oh, yeah.

It's about motherland.
Home.

What home means.

I was never in one place long enough to
know what that's supposed to feel like.

He says,
"it is like an old tree.

"Like the love
of a newborn sister.

The hearts of those
far from home."

It's beautiful.
Yeah.

Is your family
still there?

No. My mother
passed away.

I never knew
my father.

They had an affair
on a cruise ship.

That was it.

Look! The door wasn't
even locked.

Let's go,
let's go!

Hello?

You both know each other?
No, no, no. He's from Cuba.

Yes, I'm Fernando.

Fernando, she's my friend,
Ruby, and I'm Rafael.

It is my pleasure.
My son will be back soon.

He'll help you
with your truck.

Good.
Please, come join us.

My daughter is promised today.
Congratulations!

Mira. Mita,
otro cubanito del campo.

Hola.
This is my daughter.

Hi.

This is my friends,
my family.

Please, come. Sit down.

What can I get you to drink?
Cafe.

Claro.
Cafe cubano?

And you, senorita?
Decaf would be fine.

Uh, water?

Yes.

Do we dare?

You just did
a ball-change.

I didn't mean to.

It must've been
the music.

Si, si!

Aye-yi-yi!

All right.
Let's do it. All right.

What do they get
if they win?

The professionals?
A career--

shows, competitions,
coaching.

That's where
the real money is.

Will they win?
Nah, it still takes two.

Michael! Look, I'm doin' the best I can,
all right?

Let's just try it again,
okay?

I don't feel that we're
getting high enough.

You'll never get the height
if you don't compress.

Well,
i don't feel you under me.

Try it again.
Okay. Ready?

Whoa, wait a minute. Wait a minute!
We miss this one sometimes.

Lately, it's all the time.
You'll do fine.

Will you?

Let's stop for today, okay?
Great.

Oh, I had fun
the other day.

Thanks for driving me.

- What about going to the club again?
- Oh, no, no.

Maybe... you're afraid
to dance my way?

Saturday.

Deal!

Whoo!

Wow, that was great!

What?
You missed it.

My mother made me take
a little ballet.

He can pick me up
anytime he wants to.

Take a number,
sister.

Don't loosen up too much.
Ooh!

It's crowded. What do you mean?
We have the whole floor.

Oh!
Weasel.

Wow!
You see?

Ah.
Whoo!

Ahhh!

You should've
let me drop you off.

Oh, it's close enough
to walk from here.

I should
see you home.

Thank you.
I had a good time.

I have an early
day tomorrow.

I had
a very nice time.

Okay.
Ciao, querida.

Ciao.

Oh, no!

Uh--

ohhh--

what are you still
doing up, pumpkin?

Oh, bravo! Bravo!

Oh, I'm sorry
about the sprinklers.

Oh, my god.
You are soaked.

Rafael, this is
my son Peter.

Hi, Peter.

Hi.

You'd better come inside
and dry off. Hmm?

Su--
yeah, sure.

We can't have
you getting sick.

Well, I'm on my way.

Good night, mister.

You had a good time, huh?
Yes. Thank you.

Uh-huh.
I know my men.

Uh, it's almost dry.

Why didn't
you tell me?

I would've.

Are you
still married?

Uh, we were
just partners.

You spend a lot of time...
With partners.

He was gone long before Peter was born.

He left you
pregnant?

Well, uh,
th-these are dry.

This is dry.

Wait. I can't.
I can't.

You're right.

You're right.

Well, I'll be damned.

There's always a way.

Shoot, I reckon.
It didn't look that good new.

Good job!

I set it according to specs,
but it still misses.

She always did like it
a little rich.

Give me some r.P.M.

Ain't that sweet?
We still need tie rods and a new flywheel.

I'll take care
of it soon.

I'm gonna have
to reimburse you for this.

And I tell you what.
We'll take her fishing up the coast this weekend.

There's a great pier
a couple of hours from here.

You can meet me
out there Friday night.

- What do ya say?
- Hey. I say, "yes."

I'll be damned.

Ya done
good work, son.

Hi.
Hi.

Got a minute?
Sure.

You used to love to dance.
Now, it's a chore.

He lifted me so easily,
and when he said he had ballet training--

I know that I'm just an amateur,
but I have put everything

and, if I think
i don't have a chance,

well, then,
I'd rather not go.

I see.

I don't know
how else to say it.

You said it fine.

Matter of fact, my back's
not arguin' with you at all.

One, two, here we go.
Yahoo!

Now, one, two.*

*one-two-three, one-two-three,
one-two-three.*

and, one-two-three. Very good, Marty.
One-two-three. And, one-two-three.

Yes! Support my arm.

Good. Now, go around one more time.
I didn't know he could do that.

He's been listening
to me, I can tell.

Oops. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Oh! Are you okay?

Yes. Are you okay?
It's just a little off.

Why don't we do
stuff like that?

We have to make sure
to get our timing together.

It's okay. We'll just try it again.
You ready? Yes.

* You put one over on me
yes.

* Okay. Here it comes. Yes!
Said I'm the only one *

oh, wow.
He's good.

* And now, I'm gone
yes! *

Si!
Hey, I want to do that too.

I gotta get
some water.

Heel, toe, heel, together.
Toe, heel, together.

There you are. Thank you.
I was wondering where I was.

These are all paid.

For las Vegas,
switch Rafael's name with mine on Patricia's entry.

I'm not gonna go.

And take Michael and Ruby
off the pro list.

Cancel all her lessons
till Vegas.

They're not competin'
and she's leavin' early.

- Why?
- I don't know. I just got a note.

By the way, I'll be
outta here tomorrow night.

You need
to talk to me?

I heard you're
dancing with Patricia.

I think it's great.

Who are you
dancing with?

You're going
back to him.

I'm going
back to dance.

I know he hurt you.

It doesn't matter.
Peter matters.

I'll-- I'll have a future dancing with Julian,
and Peter can see his father more.

I-i want him to feel
like he's got family.

Maybe he already feels
that... right here.

Good night.

What about
the night we danced?

That was different.
- That's my point.

This is not easy for me.

Of course it is.

That's why
you are doing it.

I don't want
to be in love.

Wanna ride one
of them ponies?

Yeah.
Hold on tight, cowboy.

Um, I'm glad you could make it.
What's up?

Uh, I just want you to know that it's
okay with Steve that I'm leaving early.

He's ready for Vegas.

And bea and lovejoy are going to be
taking care of Peter while I'm gone.

I'm meeting
Julian there.

I figured as much.
Throw me the ball!

A-and if we dance well--
which you will.

Then I'm movin'
to Chicago.

You're just scooting right
out of here, aren't you?

I've been here longer
than I've been anywhere, ever.

I'm gonna
miss you in Vegas.

Twenty years
of it was enough.

Another month or two,
you can find me up the coast.

You'll break a lot of hearts
when you close that studio.

What's going to happen
to Rafael?

It's not
my problem anymore.

How do you know him?
I knew his mother...

When we worked the cruise ships way back when.

You're-- you're the one
from the cruise ship.

Hey, John!
Brought you a friend. Mmm?

Hot night, ain't it?

Whoa!
That your only shirt?

Lucky tarpon shirt.
You know that.

Well, I'm gonna shut the kitchen down pretty soon,
so if you're hungry...

You better make it.

You ever cast
a long rod before?

I can do it.

Ow!

Some ice.

That kind of weight tends
to spool that line quickly.

Throw me a beer.

It's nice here.

I don't know what
you're up to, friend.

But I don't have a son.

She's too heavy.
If she spools that reel, she'll

kid, can you hold it?
Yeah.

Where the hell
is my knife?

The line is going!

Why did you
help me come here?

Did you feel guilty because
you left her without a word?

You and I both know she would
have told me about you.

You would've called
her a liar too?

My mother never lied.

Let me be real clear.

About a mile down the beach
there, I'm buyin' a place.

I've been waitin'
for this a long time.

The studio'll be history.

So, go to Vegas. Earn
yourself a nice little bonus.

Then be on your way.
You get me?

Claro.

Tell me,
what did your father think of my mother?

What did he tell her when
she called looking for you?

What did he tell the little communist
Cuban girl looking for his only son?

She did try to tell you.

But now that I know you,
i never would have.

One, step, turn. Swivel, toe,
heel. Swivel, toe, heel.

Swivel, toe, heel.
Swivel, toe, heel.

Step.

Two, three,
four, five, six.

And step, step--

step, step--
did you tell them?

No.

Rock, step.

Everybody,

Stefano has something he's
waited all his life to say.

In John's absence here and
in las Vegas, I am in charge.

So, if you have any questions,
please feel free to approach me anytime.

Thank you.

Where's the music?

This is supposed
to be a dance studio.

We have to rehearse,
so we can win!
