? What would you do if I sang out of tune? ?

? Would you stand up and walk out on me? ?

? Lend me your ears, and I'll sing you a song ?

? I will try not to sing out of key, yeah ?

? Oh, baby, I get by ? ? By with a little help from my friends ?

? All I need is my buddies ?

? High with a little help from my friends ?

? Ooh, ooh, ooh ?

Young love is really pretty simple.

? I may not always love you ?

It's about sharing little inside jokes

when the teacher isn't looking.

? You never need to doubt it ?

It's about passing notes in the hallway between classes.

? I'll make you so sure about it ?

It's about all the really stupid things you share.

It's about going through it together.

- You did not. - I did too!

I don't believe you.

Would I lie about something like that?

Winnie Cooper and I had been through it all...

good times, bad times, the ups and downs...

and we were still together.

Okay, you're right. Satisfied?

I knew it! You can't fool me.

I know that look on your face.

We'd known each other since we were kids.

And, to me, she was still the girl next door...

even though she didn't live next door anymore.

Hey, did you hear that patsy paddock

broke up with Jim Wicke?

Really? I didn't even know they were going steady.

Well, they are. I mean, they were.

Oh, then I guess it's too bad they split up.

Fact is, now that we were going to different schools,

there were a few obstacles to overcome...

things like basic communication.

Brian burns got suspended for two weeks

for smoking in the boys' room.

No kidding? [ Exhales sharply ]

Who's Brian burns?

Hey, Winnie!

Hi!

Who are they?

Just some kids from Lincoln.

Oh.

But even if our lives had changed,

we knew it didn't matter.

Winnie?

I'm sorry. What were you saying?

Never mind.

? Though life would still go on, believe me ?

We'd been together too long

to let time and distance come between us.

? So what good would living do me? ?

And if Winnie had her life, well, so be it.

After all...

[ School bell rings ]

I had mine, too.

Study for your English test?

Got it nailed!

Glad to hear it...

'Cause I'm gonna fail mine.

Life at RFK junior high...

it was hours of sheer boredom...

Kevin?

Hi.

Uh, hi.

Broken only by moments of sheer terror.

So, I'll see you in French class?

Uh, sure!

Madeline Adams... she was beautiful, smart...

Not to mention totally dangerous.

Kev?

Huh?

You gonna wear that to class?

Oh. [ Chuckles ]

Okay, so I was tempted, but that's all, nothing more.

I was a one-woman man, faithful forever.

Things grow old and die.

This week, we'll be continuing our study of paleontology...

specifically, the extinction of species.

Very sad.

Fact is, by the middle of 9th grade,

life had become routine... no shocks, no surprises.

Class, this week we will be conducting

a joint field trip with Lincoln junior high.

Just the occasional miracle.

We will go to the natural history museum

to gaze upon the bleached bones of animals

which have preceded us into extinction.

Scientifically speaking, it meant one thing.

Winnie gets to go with us!

Right! Cool!

It will be gobs of fun. [ Chuckles ]

It was the best news I'd had all year.

Me and my baby were going on a field trip.

[ School bell rings ]

- This is gonna be great! - Yes, sir!

Anything can happen on a field trip.

You know what I heard?

This museum is supposed to have an exhibit

of an Indian tribal village.

And I heard that a lot of the Indian women...

Aren't wearing any tops.

I just can't believe they're ever gonna let us see that!

Yeah? Well, I know something even better than that!

Better?

Better.

What could possibly be better than that?

Well, my cousin told me that, on the fourth floor,

they got a room the public isn't allowed into.

And in this room, they keep something you'll never believe.

You ever hear of that gangster John Dillinger?

Now, I think we all know

what Randy Mitchell was talking about here.

Anyway, they put it in a jar of formaldehyde and saved it...

But while he was peddling schoolboy legends,

I was thinking of more important things...

More romantic things.

This has been the best day of my life.

Mine, too.

Oh, Kevin!

Oh, Winnie!

And the great thing was,

I knew she'd be thinking exactly the same thing.

Did you hear? We're going on a field trip together.

We are?

Almost the same thing.

Yeah!

It's to the natural history museum.

It's a joint field trip with RFK and Lincoln.

- Are you sure? - Well, sure I'm sure.

Oh, it's gonna be great.

Yeah, that'll be fun.

You know what'd be perfect

is if we could get you to go on our bus.

I could see us now,

nestled together, locked at the lips...

Well, I'd hate to let down the kids at my school.

How do you mean?

You know, by not riding on the bus with them.

Oh, you'll see them at the museum.

Besides, you see them every day.

Whereas this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,

a plan made in heaven.

It was... Perfect, flawless.

But how will I even get on your bus?

Hmm.

Uh... [ Bus horn honks ]

I feel sick.

11...12.

What's that?

Maybe I'd better run and use the restroom, sir.

Can I?

All right, Mr. Porter.

But don't come back if you're really ill.

Crude... But effective.

Bingo.

Now we're cooking with gas.

Yep, all we needed now was a little split-second timing...

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Okay, well, I'll see you guys later, okay?

Bye.

And this whole thing was gonna work out fine.

Hi, Kevin.

Uh, Madeline!

Talk about your basic fly in the ointment!

I'm sorry. I was saving this seat.

Doug just snuck onto the Lincoln bus,

and Winnie will be here any...

Oh, my gosh.

So, Madeline, if you don't mind...

Sorry.

Wow!

You got them hanging all over you.

Maybe so, but the whole thing had been too close for comfort.

And I certainly didn't want anything

to spoil Winnie's good mood.

I'm not sure this is such a good idea.

Winnie, don't worry.

It's gonna be great.

Hi, Paul.

Hi, Winnie. How you doing?

Well, nervous.

I really hate doing this kind of stuff.

I'll tell you what.

Next time I'll sneak on your bus.

What are you doing?

Waving to some kids I know.

Well...

I'm really glad you're here.

Yeah, I'm glad I'm here, too.

And there it was... that smile, that magic,

the whole day ahead of us.

You could sense big things were gonna happen.

On the way to the museum that day,

there was the usual chaos.

But in the midst of it all,

Winnie and I were right where we belonged...

together.

No misunderstandings, no distractions.

Not many, anyway.

They lived in a world long forgotten.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls...

I give you species dinosaurus.

Behind me, camptosaurus and antrodemus.

They make a cute couple, don't they? Ha ha.

Still, standing there hand-in-hand with my girl,

it felt like the good old days.

For 150 million years,

the dinosaur was king of his domain.

Then, quite suddenly... pfft!... Fertilizer.

Not that there wasn't an educational side to all of it.

So, where are these jars with the you-know-whats?

Well, it's hard to tell.

I mean, this guidebook doesn't even say they have a fourth floor.

What, you think they'd advertise stuff like that?

We're gonna have to find it ourselves.

Keep your eyes open for unmarked doors.

Nope. The last thing on my mind was science.

I was here for just one reason.

What weakness, what vulnerability

unknown to the dinosaur...

Winnie?

Who are they?

Just some friends from Lincoln.

Oh.

That's Marsha and Sean.

Are you gonna spend all day waving at them?

Whoops.

I mean...

I just thought we were here together, you know?

I know. I'm sorry.

People, follow me to the next room, please...

no stragglers.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

And even though we'd gotten off to a bumpy start...

I knew, from here on out, it was gonna be smooth sailing.

I can't believe it. Eddie Wheeler really did that?

You should've seen it. It was gross.

By lunchtime, we'd sailed into a squall.

Instead of being alone, Winnie and I were surrounded.

He ate the whole hot pepper, even the stem.

Then he went to math class and sneezed for 20 minutes!

I bet Mr. Kroy must have had a fit.

Who knew? More to the point, who cared?

You see, Mr. Kroy's this really weird teacher...

[ chuckles ] I get it... Mr. Kroy.

So, what'd Kroy say?

It didn't seem fair.

I was stuck with a bunch of saps

from Lincoln junior high,

while over in my corner...

Never mind.

We're gonna go check out the gift shop.

You guys want to come?

Okay.

No, thanks.

Well, then, we'll see you guys later.

Bye.

Kevin...

It was pretty clear we needed to talk.

Yeah?

But for some reason, we didn't.

[ Glass clinking ]

Attention, students.

Please assemble back in the lobby.

What were you gonna ask me?

It's okay. Never mind.

Still, by the time we got back to fossils,

the whole thing was getting old.

Winnie?

What?

It was time to straighten this out, one way or the other.

I...

You have beautiful eyes.

Bingo.

The climate was warming.

Thanks.

And there it was... the old smile,

the old chemistry, the old...

So, see you guys in the ice age?

The old heave-ho.

Yeah, see you there.

Suddenly, temperatures fell.

Winnie, I don't get it.

What's so special about them?

I don't know.

They're just real nice.

Yeah, real nice.

They make a cute couple, but...

well, except they're not a couple.

Couple, not a couple... Winnie, who cares?

You don't see me talking to my friends, do you?

Hi, Kevin. Hi, Winnie!

New life-forms began to appear.

Okay, okay. Bad timing.

Uh... Hi, guys.

Great news... we found an elevator marked "private."

And it's got to be the way to get to the room on the fourth floor.

So, what do you say? You gonna come?

No... I can't.

Whoops!

I mean... No, thanks. I don't want to.

Okay, then. We'll let you know.

Come on.

While some life-forms flourished,

others were facing the inevitable.

We stood there for about, oh, six days...

the perfect couple.

And then she said

what I already knew she was gonna say.

Maybe you should go with them.

And then I said what I knew I shouldn't.

Okay.

And then there was nothing to do but...

Go.

So I went.

Welcome to the hall of fossils.

'Course, I got lost.

I'd been lost all day.

And the evening didn't promise to get any better.

I couldn't understand what was happening...

To me...

To Winnie.

Kevin?

Uh, Madeline.

What are you doing out here?

I was gonna ask you the same thing.

You look lost.

[ Scoffs ] Nah.

[ Chuckles ] Kind of.

It was uncanny.

This girl had a knack

for showing up at exactly the wrong time.

Must have been some kind of radar or something.

You want to talk about it?

About what?

About anything.

About love.

Uh, I'd better be going.

Or... Maybe about those stars.

They're changing, you know.

We think the stars are fixed in the sky,

but they're not.

I think sometimes we have to learn to give in...

To change... To new things.

Don't you think?

But the fact is, I didn't know what to think.

All I knew was, standing there...

With her... Under those stars...

I suddenly wondered...

Why was I resisting this girl?

And why was I such a heel?

Hello.

Winnie?!

Winnie?!

I searched for her through every climate on earth.

Winnie?!

But I couldn't find her.

[ Crickets chirping ]

Winnie!

Wait.

Can we talk about this?

I don't know.

Look...

I wanted to tell her that she was the only one,

that she'd always been the only one,

ever since we were little kids,

ever since she lived across the street.

I didn't know what to say to you.

Winnie, it's not what you think.

I never thought this could happen to me.

Believe me, nothing's happened.

Yes, it has.

[ Breathing heavily ]

Kevin...

I've met someone.

What?

Kevin... I'm sorry.

[ Sobbing ]

[ Engine turns over ]

[ The beach boys' "God only knows" plays ]

? I may not always love you ?

? But long as there are stars above you ?

? You never need to doubt it ?

? I'll make you so sure about it ?

? God only knows what I'd be without you ?

? If you should ever leave me ?

? Though life would still go on, believe me ?

Bad news, Kev.

We got shut out of the fourth floor.

Yeah, but before they kicked us out, I think I saw it...

the thing in the jar?

No, you didn't.

Yeah, I think that was it!

I told you we should've stayed with the group.

At least we could've seen the Indian women.

You okay, Kev?

Yeah. Sure.

Look, how do you know I didn't see it?

You don't even know what I saw.

Back there on our seat...

the ride home in the dark seat...

there it was...

the ring I gave to Winnie.

? God only know what I'd be without you ?

The one she was giving back to me.

? Though life would still go on, believe me ?

? The world could show nothing to me ?

? So what good would living do me? ?

I looked for her on the other bus,

but I couldn't find her.

She was already lost in the crowd.

I knew then

that the girl next door was gone.

And my life would never be the same again.

? God only knows what I'd be without you ?

? God only knows what I'd be without you ?

? God only knows what I'd be without you ?
