Kevin...

I've met someone.

What?

Winnie Cooper was my first real love.

She grew up in the house across the street.

She was the first girl I'd ever kissed.

And now...

She'd broken up with me.

But it wasn't until the next day

that I understood what it all meant.

This is all a mistake!

Huh?

What happened... with Winnie and me?

Oh, that.

It's just a big misunderstanding, right?

- Well... - She's probably just mad at me.

Don't you think?

Kev...

Yeah?

It's over.

What?

Well, I'm sorry, but that's what I think.

I mean, it's pretty clear.

She met this guy. She likes him better.

Who asked you?

Well, you did, remember?

- That's not the point. - Hey, Arnold!

Heard the super Cooper dropped you like a rotten egg.

Sorry.

Great.

One little tiff with my girlfriend,

suddenly I'm headline news.

Kev?

Maybe you should just... Accept it.

Yeah, well, I don't, okay?

Hey, I was 14.

Acceptance was not exactly

a major part of my emotional repertoire.

What I really needed was a little support,

a sympathetic ear...

Kevin?

A wolf in sheep's clothing.

Madeline!

I'm sorry about what happened with you and Winnie.

I guess breaking up is hard to do.

Yeah.

Well, we're not really broken up.

Oh.

I just thought...

Yeah. Well, it's not like that, okay?

We're just working it out.

Well, if you want to talk,

I'm always available.

Thanks, but I won't need that.

The whole thing's been blown out of proportion.

Hey, Arnold. Tough break.

My heart goes out to you, man.

Seemed pretty clear if I was gonna survive this,

there was only one thing to do.

[ Bell dings ]

I had to quell these rumors.

She's here.

It was kind of a big moment.

The first step towards making up always is.

Pretty well.

Winnie?

Kevin. Hi.

How are you?

Okay.

How are you?

Great.

Good.

And they said we'd split up.

- Kevin... - Hey.

Don't give it a second thought.

No sense dwelling on the past.

It was all behind us now.

Hey, Winnie, our pizza's ready.

Hey.

Kevin, you remember Roger.

Hey.

How you doing?

Okay.

I wanted to crush every bone in his hand.

Uh, it was good talking to you, Kevin.

Yeah.

Yep, great talking.

? How do you do? ?

? Uh-huh ?

[ Channels changing ]

Well, there was always home,

the last refuge from the slings and arrows

of the 9th-grade rumor mill.

Kevin, guess who I ran into at the grocery store today?

Doug Porter's mother.

She mentioned that you and Winnie

are going through some tough times?

Great, I'd made the big leagues...

the supermarket checkout line.

And worse, it was being broadcast in front of my Dad.

I'd rather not talk about it, Mom.

I understand.

You two have been together for so long,

I'm sure it will work out.

- [ Groans ] - Mom.

Why don't you just pick up the phone and give her a call?

It was the stupidest suggestion I'd ever heard.

[ Dialing ]

Don't do it.

What?

You're gonna call her, right? Hmm?

Darn!

I'd been picked up on my brother's misery antenna.

I wasn't gonna call her.

Good, 'cause it's a loser's move.

'Course, Wayne had been dumped

by every girl in the tri-county area,

so he did speak with a certain authority.

Okay, then what should I do?

Keep your distance.

Uhhuh.

- You make her suffer. - Uh-huh.

Otherwise, you're just some road kill

on the side of the highway,

waiting to get run over a second time.

Wayne, this is none of your business.

Fine. Do what you want.

But if you do call her back,

may as well hang a billboard up saying,

"Winnie, come back, please."

Or better yet, maybe you should throw a party for her.

[ Laughs ]

Ha! Talk about stupid.

[ Laughs ]

The very thought of a party... talk about ridiculous.

What would I do... invite her, get her alone,

work a little magic on her?

I'm having a party.

A what?

It seems like a good time.

What do you think?

Why are you having a party?

Well, I have a lot of friends I can invite.

Hey, no need to show all my cards.

Like Winnie?

Yeah, for example.

Frankly, Kev... It sounds a little obvious.

Uhhuh.

Well...

That's why we're gonna have it at your house.

What?!

Paul, if you're a friend, you'll do this.

Forget it.

- Yeah, I'd love to come. - Great, great.

It was a stroke of genius, planned...

By a mastermind.

Well, see you there.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

So, what'd she say?

She's gonna come.

Really?

And she thinks the luau theme is gonna be perfect.

What?

Do you have any good recipes for spinach dip?

Paul, did my name come up?

Oh, of course.

She asked if you were gonna be there.

Good. Good. Did she seem happy?

Yeah.

Yeah, she was happy.

I knew it.

Kevin?

Hi.

Uh, I'd better be getting home.

Got a party to plan!

[ Thud ] Ooh, sorry!

Paul tells me you're going to be at his party.

Well, yeah, yeah.

I'm gonna help him out with some stuff.

It was so thoughtful of him to ask me.

Well, I had a little something to do with that.

I just wanted to make sure it was okay.

Sure, it's okay. Yeah, it's gonna be a ball.

Yeah, everything was working out.

Just a matter of hours now

before we'd be together once again.

Then we'll see you there.

"We"?

Uhhuh.

Kevin, it's just so nice you invited us.

"Us"?

Uhhuh.

Either Winnie had become royalty overnight, or...

Winnie!

Bye.

I was going to be throwing a party

for the girl that I loved... And her boyfriend.

By the next day, I had figured out

a very workable solution to my problems.

Paul! -Kev, forget it. I'm not canceling the party.

Why not?!

Because everybody's coming.

My Mom already bought seven cases of cola,

eight bags of potato chips,

and four different colors of streamers.

Just like the guy... always thinking of himself.

Paul, you got to cancel it.

Hey, you're the one who told me to invite them.

I told you to invite her, not uh, what's-his-name.

Roger?

Sorry.

"Sorry"?

That's all you have to say is "sorry"?

How was I supposed to know that she was gonna bring him?

Well, I... you're the...

Kev, forget it. The party's happening.

Faced with a betrayal of this magnitude,

the line had to be drawn.

Okay, then, I'm not coming.

No way the guy was gonna throw the party without me.

[ Chuckles ]

Too bad.

You're gonna miss the party of the decade.

[Chuckles bitterly]

[ School bell rings ]

Still, at least I'd stood my ground...

For what that was worth.

Hi, Kevin.

Hey.

Did I hear that Paul Pfeiffer

is having a party at his house tomorrow night?

Well, sort of.

Kind of.

Anyway, I'm not going.

Well, that's a surprise.

What do you mean by that?

It's just I know you're one of Paul's best friends,

and I just expected...

Well, I decided not to go.

It's gonna be stupid and boring,

and there are gonna be a lot of people there

that I don't want to see, anyway.

Winnie?

I must have been as transparent

as a piece of cellophane.

Uh, no.

Uh, yeah.

She was thinking about coming by.

I could imagine that that would be hard.

What?

Going to a party alone that she's going to be at.

Now, wait a minute.

What was the girl saying here?

Why couldn't I go to my best friend's party?

And who said I had to go alone?

Madeline?

Yes?

Do you want to go to a party?

Cheeseballs?

Cheeseballs?

As the party started getting into gear, Paul was on edge.

- Do you want a soda? - Sure.

But I was a veritable pillar.

Whatever lay ahead, I was prepared.

? And I'm blue ?

? I need you ?

[Chuckles]

Not to mention I was armed

with the best-looking date at the party.

- Here you go. - Thanks.

Yep, I was feeling pretty confident.

I was ready for anything.

Look who's here.

And that's when anything walked in the door.

With Mr. anything.

Come on.

Where?

I want you to meet someone.

No sense putting this off.

It was time to fight fire with fire.

- Hi. - Hi, Kevin.

Have you ever met Madeline?

'Course, I knew it was a cruel blow.

Hi, Madeline.

Hi.

But I was merciless.

Madeline, this is Roger.

- Hi. - Nice meeting you.

Hey.

Hey.

And it was high time for them to turn tail and run.

Hi, guys. Glad you could make it.

Spinach dip is amazing.

Hi, Paul.

Oh, let me take your things.

Rats! Foiled by spinach dip.

It was time to call an audible.

Let's dance.

Good idea.

[ "Mustang Sally" plays ]

? Mustang Sally ?

The gauntlet was down.

I had no choice but to become the life of that party.

? Guess you better slow your mustang down ?

I danced with abandon.

? Oh, lord ?

I answered the question on everybody's lips...

"is there life after Winnie Cooper?"

You better believe it!

Kevin Arnold was a fun-loving guy with a beautiful date.

? Ha! ?

? Oh, yeah ?

No question about it.

[ Gasps ]

I was the center of attention.

Sorry.

Maybe it's time for you to take a breather, Kev.

Hey, is this a party, or what?

I don't get it.

[Scoffs] What was this guy's problem?

? Ride, Sally, ride ?

I wasn't hurting anybody.

? All you want to do is ride around, Sally ?

So, want to dance again?

- That depends. - What do you mean?

Well, are you going to be dancing with me...

Or her?

[ Laughs ]

What are you talking about?

Maybe it's time you made up your mind...

About Winnie.

Huh?

She's making a fool of you.

[ "You Are Everything" plays ]

[ Sighs ] Kevin.

Find me when you've made up your mind.

? Today I saw somebody ?

? Who looked just like you ?

? She walked like you do ?

? I thought it was you ?

? As she turned the corner ?

Thought I'd spend some time with the washing machine.

? I felt so ashamed ?

? When it wasn't you ?

Hi.

Hey.

Kevin, can we talk?

Talk about what?

[ Sighs ]

We shouldn't be acting like this.

Well, how do you want us to act?

I don't know.

Kevin, I care about you.

You mean a lot to me.

? How can I forget ?

? When each face that I see ?

I do?

And...

I need you...

I wanted to take her in my arms right there

and tell her how much I missed her.

To be my friend.

Your friend?

The words cut my heart out.

I couldn't have been more unprepared.

I said the first thing I felt.

I don't want to be your friend.

I-I got enough friends.

Kevin...

Look, Winnie, let's just do both ourselves a favor

and keep away from each other.

You really mean that?

'Course I really mean that!

I guess I was hurting her, but I just didn't care anymore.

I'll tell you another thing, Winnie.

This whole thing's stupid.

It's really not that big a deal.

And to tell you the truth,

our relationship didn't mean that much to me, all right?

It was the biggest lie I'd ever told.

And she believed every word of it.

? You are everything ?

? And everything is you ?

? Oh, you are everything ?

? And everything is you ?

? Oh, you are everything ?

So, how'd it go?

Fine, fine. Piece of cake.

I'm glad.

[ Chuckles ] I never saw what the big deal

about Winnie Cooper was, anyway.

Far as I could figure,

there was pretty much just one thing left to say.

Madeline, get lost.

Hey, Kev. Where you going?

[ Dog barking, insects chirping ]

[ Owl hooting ]

That night, I didn't feel much like going home,

facing the inevitable questions.

It was only 9:30, so I thought maybe

I'd hang out in the garage for a while...

Maybe spend the night there.

[ Rattling ]

Unfortunately, someone else

was already hanging out in the garage.

Dad?

Hey.

What are you doing?

I'm trying to get this damn mower repaired.

Need any help?

Nah.

How are things going?

Okay.

With, uh, Winnie, I mean.

Well...

Things are pretty much over with us, you know.

[ Tool clatters ]

[ Sighs ]

Guess it must hurt a lot, doesn't it?

I guess so.

I wish I could say it gets easier.

Can we go inside?

But I knew I wasn't gonna make it inside.

You just hang in there, now, huh?

[ Insects chirping ]

Love makes you do funny things.

Makes you proud.

Makes you sorry.

[ Sighs ]

[ Door opens ]

Hi.

Hi.

I'm sorry about what happened tonight.

[ Sighs ]

You cold?

No.

No, I'm fine.

I'm gonna go home.

I just wanted to stop by.

Well, I'm glad you stopped by, Kevin.

Yeah.

Well... What was I gonna do?

Never talk to you again?

[ Chuckles ]

Pretty stupid party, huh?

Yeah.

Pretty stupid.

That night, we talked...

About life...

About our times together.

Maybe we weren't the same two kids we'd once been,

but some things never change.

Some things last.

And even though I didn't know what was gonna happen to us

or where we were going...

I just knew I couldn't let her out of my life.
