You start out life with a clean slate,

then you begin to make your mark.

You face decisions, make choices.

You keep moving forward.

But sooner or later, there comes a time

when you look back over where you've been...

And wonder who you really are.

Wow!

You like it?

I love it!

Honest?

Winnie Cooper and I knew who we were.

A couple... together, forever.

Look on the back.

"Love, Winnie."

In a world full of twists and turns,

we'd found our way.

Happy anniversary!

Oh, thanks.

What anniversary?

It is a year ago tonight that you wanted to ask me out,

but you didn't.

You don't remember?

Well...

Of course, we had our occasional misunderstandings.

Still...

Uh, sure I do!

It's just...

I thought that was, uh, tomorrow night.

No, tomorrow night is the anniversary

when you told Paul you really liked me.

Oh, right. I always get those two mixed up.

Somehow, we always managed to work things out.

Tell you what... we should celebrate.

How 'bout the movies, tomorrow night?

Great!

Yep, we were solid,

and nothing could come between us...

not time, not distance...

Not even raw temptation.

[ School bell rings ]

Madeline Adams.

On the first day of school, she kissed me...

unexpectedly and without provocation...

full on the lips.

Not that it bothered me, exactly.

Still, I'd made a point to keep my distance.

In fact, I hadn't said a word to her since.

Hi, Kevin.

Uh...

D...

at least, not an intelligible word.

[ School bell rings ]

Asseyez-vous, s'il vous pla�t!

Bonjour, la classe!

Bonjour, Madame!

Class, today, we're going to be starting a new unit in French...

LA cuisine.

Cooking! [ Class grumbling ]

Now, for your homework,

you and a partner will prepare

an authentic French dish at home,

then you'll bring it in here and tell us how you made it...

En Fran�ais!

Huh? C'est bien?

Say this for the teachers at R.F.K...

they never ran out of bad ideas.

Now, to keep it fair,

I've put all your names into this mixing bowl, huh?

We will be choosing our partners simplement au hasard.

Marcia?

Great. Homework wasn't bad enough.

Harold Gartner.

Cooking wasn't bad enough.

On top of it all,

we were being forced to put ourselves

entirely in the hands of...

Kevin Arnold!

Imminent disaster.

You dog!

She picked your name?

I don't believe it.

He gets all the luck.

Come on. It's just a homework assignment.

What's the big deal?

Are you kidding?

He's gonna be in her house, after dark?

Anything can happen.

Which, as it happened,

was exactly what I was afraid of.

Knock it off, will ya?

Look, Mitchell, for your information,

Kevin has a girlfriend.

He's practically married.

Yeah, right.

I want a full report, including details.

[ Scoffs ] Some guys!

What an imagination!

I know what you mean.

I mean, just because she is attractive,

and she has a nice figure, and she...

Paul!

I just don't see what the big deal is.

Of course, Paul was right.

It wasn't a big deal at all.

Certainly no reason to be concerned.

Except, for some reason...

Kevin?

I was.

You mind if I sit down?

Uh...

Well...

[ Stammers ]

I thought maybe we should talk.

Really?

Well, maybe this would clear some things up,

like about what happened that first day,

about why she'd kissed me.

- About... - About what to cook.

Cook.

I was thinking chocolate mousse,

if that's all right with you.

Uh, yeah.

Y-yeah, sure.

Except, you see...

Okay, since she wasn't gonna bring it up, I'd have to.

It's just...

That's a lovely I.D.

What?

Was it a gift?

Oh. Yeah. Kind of.

From my girlfriend, Winnie Cooper.

For our anniversary.

It's lovely.

She must be very special.

Yeah.

Yeah, she is, kind of.

So... You were saying?

Oh. That.

Well...

But suddenly, I felt foolish.

Here she was, complimenting my girlfriend,

and I was suspicious?

Shame on me!

Nothing. It's nothing.

Well, then, shall we meet tonight at my place,

say 7:30?

Uh, sure.

Sure. That'd be fine.

31 Vernon drive.

I'll see you then.

And that was that.

We'd had a good conversation, straightened things out,

cleared the air.

No problem.

Tonight?

One problem.

I thought we were going to the movies tonight.

Oh, my gosh.

Well, we are.

I-I mean, we were.

I mean... We are.

It's just this thing came up in French, and...

What kind of thing?

Well, it's cooking.

You know, I'll just cancel it.

Don't be silly. I won't hear of it.

We had the same kind of assignment like last week.

And I know a bunch of people are counting on you.

The thing is, she was being so sweet about it, so innocent.

Don't think you can fool me, Kevin Arnold.

I beg your pardon?

You'd do anything to get out of doing your homework.

But I think this is important.

You do?

Schoolwork comes first.

We'll just go another night.

I'm sure if I were in the same situation,

you'd say the same thing.

Wouldn't you?

Maybe so, maybe not.

What could I say, except, of course...

Okay. You win.

[ Crickets chirping ]

Winnie was right.

Love was love,

but school was school.

Kind of like the separation of church and state.

It was time to put social interests aside

and concentrate on academics.

It was time to study French.

Bonjour, Kevin.

In our underwear.

Uh...

Oh, this. [ Chuckles ]

I am sorry I'm such a mess,

but I really didn't have a chance to get fixed up.

Oh. Oh.

And since it is a school night and we will be cooking,

I just figured, why worry about clothes?

Oh. Well, sure.

Sure. That explained it.

Why worry about clothes?

Here!

You just stir and leave everything else to me, okay?

And even though a little voice inside

was telling me to watch my step...

Entrez.

I guess little voices don't speak French.

Le lait.

Le Sucre.

Le Sucre.

Besides, once we got started,

it was pretty clear what was gonna happen.

LA mousse.

C'est bon?

We were gonna cook.

[ Intro to "Hey, Good Lookin'" plays ]

? Say hey, good-lookin' ?

? Whatcha got cookin'? ?

? How's about cookin' something up with me-e-e-e-e? ?

? Hey, sweet baby ?

? Don't ya think maybe ?

? We could find us a brand-new recipe-e-e-e ?

? I got a hot-rod Ford ?

Yep, we were really getting to work here...

rolling up our sleeves, mopping our brows,

removing our bracelets.

Who would have thought that homework could be so fun?

? Hey, good-lookin' ?

? Whatcha got cooking? ?

And by the time the smoke cleared,

we were acting like old friends.

Well, it looks like this all turned out pretty well.

Oui?

Yeah, not bad.

The fact is, I was a little ashamed of myself

for having thought that...

Well, you know.

It's kind of funny, isn't it?

What's funny?

Oh, well, you know, that you and me were paired up.

It's kind of a... Coincidence, you know?

And then it happened.

What makes you think it was a coincidence?

Well, I mean, you picked my name and...

Uh...

I think I better go.

Oh, come on. We haven't even tasted it yet.

No, really.

I...

Mmm.

I...

Go ahead.

[ Echoing ] Taste it!

I...

I got to go.

[ Dog barking ]

Everything was a blur.

My mind was racing.

I wasn't quite sure what had happened.

All I knew was I'd gotten out of there just in time,

with nothing lost.

Nothing...

Aah!

[ Grunts ]

But everything.

There's nothing like an early morning bike ride

to clear your head.

I knew I was out that day looking for something.

It could have been my I.D. Bracelet,

except I already knew where that was.

So, maybe I was looking for something else.

Kevin?

Hi!

Kevin, what are you doing here?

II was just riding my bike.

Guess I got a little lost.

Which was true in more ways than one.

Uh, I-I was thinking about you.

Which was true, too.

Well, that's nice.

And it was nice.

It made me feel sure again,

made me feel brave.

So, how'd it go last night?

[ Echoing ] Taste it.

Made me feel like throwing up.

Uh, I-it went okay.

Just a lot of cooking, more or less.

What did you make?

Uh, nothing special.

Just, you know, chocolate mousse.

Oh, that sounds delicious!

Probably. But I-I didn't taste it!

Kevin, where is your bracelet?

And right about then, I had a choice.

I could be a man and tell her everything...

Uh, I never wear it when I'm riding.

Or I could be a worm and tell her nothing.

II wouldn't want anything to happen to it.

But you'll wear it tonight, right?

Tonight?

Our movie night.

Oh, yeah! Of course!

Great.

So, I'll see you then.

You're the best.

But I didn't feel like the best.

I felt more like...

Mousse au chocolat.

Voil�!

Wow.

And the worst thing was I was getting applause for it.

Tr�s bien!

You two obviously work very well together.

If only she knew.

[ School bell rings ] Merci, � bient�t!

Okay, then. No use dawdling.

Make this short and sweet.

Madeline?

I think I left my I.D. At your house last night.

Yes, I know.

It's just... I need it.

I have a date.

With Winnie.

At the movies.

Tonight. In town.

With Winnie.

Did I say, "with Winnie"?

Of course you can have it back.

There. A done deal. Over and out.

Only I'm afraid I didn't bring it with me.

Oh.

So, I guess we have a problem here.

Don't we?

What do you mean?

Well, you'll have to come over to my house tonight

and pick it up.

What time shall I expect you?

Behold the hunted, struggling against hope.

Behold the hunter,

mandibles dripping.

A sad and macabre dance of death.

Whatever can miss spider be thinking?

I wasn't sure, but I had a pretty good idea.

Kev?

You all right?

Sure. Fine.

But I wasn't.

I needed help, guidance.

I lost my I.D. Bracelet.

The one Winnie gave me.

I'm seeing her tonight.

You lost it?!

Well, I left it somewhere.

Where?

Just... Somewhere.

Heck, no need to delve into details

for a little crummy advice.

[ Sighs ]

So, what do you think I should do?

There's only one thing to do!

As if I didn't know what his answer would be...

be truthful, be honest!

Get another one.

What?!

Consider the alternatives!

Death, dismemberment.

Total extinction.

Excuse me, sir?

I need an I.D. Bracelet.

Do you have any?

Yes. Over here, please.

Now this was the ticket.

Why hadn't I thought of this before?

Solid sterling, hollow, or chrome plated?

Beveled, rounded, or squared?

How much are those?

$9.75.

That's the one.

Anything else?

Yeah, I need it engraved. Cheap.

Hey, it was only for one night, right?

Write down the name you want.

And finally, things were back to normal.

Sure, I made a few missteps.

But now everything was gonna be fine.

I'd acted in the Nick of time, covered my tracks,

reclaimed the good name of...

Kevin Arnold?!

A fungus in the petri dish of life.

Oh, my gosh!

I'd fallen victim to a fatal combination...

poor penmanship, haste, and a nearsighted jeweler.

Oh, my gosh!

Kevin Arnold?

[ Laughs ]

[ Squeaks ]

[ Laughs ]

Ya-ya-ya-ya!

Kevin Arnold! [ Laughs ]

And that's when I knew.

There was only one thing to do and only one way to do it.

The moment had come.

I was gonna ask,

and, if necessary, demand

that she give my bracelet back!

This was what I should have done all along.

Heck, I was no mold. I was Kevin Arnold.

I knew what I wanted.

I knew exactly what I was gonna say.

And I was gonna say it...

right to her front door.

No, but I'm out of runways.

Think of what this baby costs!

I'm thinking of that plane load of people.

This runway's the only hope they've got.

There's nothing that compares to a good movie...

the plot, the music,

the total darkness.

So far that night,

I'd kept Winnie from noticing the bracelet I wasn't wearing.

But I knew sooner or later...

Winnie?

I was gonna have to come clean.

Want another licorice whip?

Or delay as long as I could.

No, thanks.

How about some milk duds?

I'm fine. Really.

Okay, so I was chicken.

I needed time...

time to think,

time to plan.

Time to bid life goodbye.

Excuse me.

Sorry. Excuse me.

[ Breathing heavily ]

Kevin, are you all right?

Me?

You're all sweaty. Are you sick?

Well, I...

Well...

Maybe we should leave.

But at that moment,

I knew leaving wouldn't solve the problem.

There was no escape from this. I had reached a dead end.

Listen, Winnie, we have to talk...

About my bracelet.

You see, I-I kind of...

Excuse me.

I think you dropped this.

Thank you!

It's very nice.

I gave it to him.

Well, must be nice to have someone you love like that.

That was so nice of her, wasn't it?

Life is a series of twists and turns.

Things don't always turn out the way you expected.

Still, that night, I knew I turned a corner.

As for the future,

well, I wasn't worried.

I had my girl, had my good name back,

and I was gonna keep it locked on.

Forever.
