STEVE:
Well, I know what all you guys
are thinking.

Yeah, you're thinking that
Steve-o is a little crazy,

a little cuckoo,
a little whacko.

Well, it wasn't until I nailed

that half-court shot
at the Laker game...

BRANDON:
Here he goes again.

STEVE:
That I realized that it was a
once in a lifetime phenomenon.

Like us graduating from high
school will never happen again.

Listen, Steve, I may
not get to graduate

if I don't go back to
the library soon, okay?

I've got two more
final exams

I have to take
tomorrow.
Yeah, yeah,

and I've still gotta get
Mrs. Teasley to sign off

before I can graduate,
but that doesn't stop me

from wanting to do something
special, with you guys.

Look, Steve, what you're
proposing here

is an inspired idea,
I'll give you that.

But I just don't think we
have the time to pull it off.

Brandon, don't worry,
I'll get the van,

I've already got
the paint and the canvas,

so all I need to do
is to consult with
Donna about the design.

Well, I'd like to help, but
couldn't we get in trouble?

What, like getting
arrested for trespassing

and defacing private property,
that kind of trouble?

Andrea, don't you want people
to know that we were here?

Don't you want people
to know that we mattered?

I say we do it.

I'm in.

Well, then,
do we have a pact?

Do we go for the gold?

Ah, I didn't want to get any
sleep on grad night anyway.

ALL:
Yeah!

(music swells)

I can't believe I have
known some of these people

for, like, 12 years.

It's definitely time
to meet some new ones.

Come on, are you a little bit
nostalgic about graduating?

Yes, I am, but I just

want to get this stupid
rehearsal over with.

I mean, what's the big deal?

They call your name, you go up,
you get your diploma,

you sit down, you go home.

Well, for someone who
almost had to stay home

and miss the whole thing, they
can rehearse me all they want.

Down, set... hike.

Yeah!

(laughing)

Yo!
Did you see
that, Bren?

Did you see that?

You're supposed to
be the secondary.

Come on, stick 'em!

Dylan, the teams aren't
exactly balanced, man.

Well, they're about to be
a little more unbalanced,

'cause I'm outta here, babe.
Cover for me, all right?

Hey, where you going bro?
I'm meeting a
guy for lunch.

Hey listen, you guys
cover for me, too.

I gotta go to the Blaze

and see if the senior wills
have been turned in.

Later. Later.

(feedback)

ANDREA:
Testing, testing,
one two, three.

Testing, testing, testing.

Okay, okay, that's fine.

You want to practice
your speech?

No, thanks.

I'd rather not over-rehearse.

Well, uh, public oratory
tends to be most compelling

when the confluence
of language is unfettered

with the constraints
of excessive repetition,

if you know what I mean.

Yeah, that's fine, Andrea.

That's fine.

Hey, hey, young David,

feeling a little
burned out, brother?

Who me?

I love taking six finals
in three days.

What's my name again?

Just be glad it's
not Steve Sanders.

Read any good books
lately, bro?

That's not very
funny, Brandon.

Come on, Steve, look
on the bright side.

It's the last day of school.

Mrs. Teasley cannot make
you go to detention,

after you graduate.

If I graduate.

Steve...

No, why else would
she release everyone

from detention but me, huh?

Maybe 'cause you're the only
one who broke into the school

to try to change your grades
with that stupid legacy key.

You didn't see the way
this lady looked at me

when she told me to report
to her office after school.

Why are you so paranoid?

I'm telling you,
Brandon,

I can read this
lady like a book.

She's got a hidden agenda
here and I know it.

Otherwise, I'd be at the
graduation rehearsal right now.

JIM:
What do we got here?

Bacon cheeseburger for you,

and cottage cheese and
fruit cup for me.

Is that what I have
to look forward to?

Only if you eat
too many of those.

So, how do you
liked Berkeley?

Well, I could definitely
see myself living

in a little place
overlooking the bay,

assuming that I can get in.

Well, there's always
California University.

Brandon's very excited
about going there.

I won't be goin' anywhere until
I get those test scores back.

You know, I think it was
a very wise decision

to take those
SAT's again.

Well, it was like
my dad said,

the only way to prove to those
bastards that I didn't cheat

was to take the test again
and raise my scores.

Did I tell you I've
been writing about him?

No. Your mom did.

How is Iris?

Oh, she's... Iris.

She is concerned about

what you're going to do
with all your money.

What does she think?

I mean, does she really think
that I'm gonna blow it all?

Does she really think I can't
handle my own affairs yet?

No, that's not it.

So, why doesn't she just say
a mantra, or whatever she does,

and have her accountant
cut the check already?

She did.

Really?

That's it right there?

Better wipe your hands.

You don't want to get
grease on a check

with this
many zeroes in it.

That's a lot of money.

Yes, it is.

TEASLEY:
I've warned you
time and time again

until I was blue in the face.

And that's why
I called your parents!

So, don't even think
about coming in here

looking like that
next year!

You are so lucky to be
getting out of this place.

(knocking)

Come in.

Mrs. Teasley, am I catching
you at a bad time?

No, not at all. Come on in.

Mrs. Teasley, before we start,

can I say something?
No.

You know, Steven,
it's been my experience

that every class has at least
one unredeemable student--

a student whose values
are so warped

that punishment has
no effect.

Is this your way of telling me

that I'm not graduating
tomorrow?

May I finish, please?

Sure. Knock yourself out.

And I realized early on

that you were the member
of the Class of '93

whom I would have
to write off...

until I realized
I'd misjudged you.

You had?

Your grades since December
have improved.

No doubt due to the extra
study time in detention.

But the real
awakening came
when I found out

that on the day after

you had won $10,000 for
making a half-court shot

at the Laker game,

someone donated $10,000

to the Alvarado Street
Summer Camp Fund.

Really?

Someone whose return address

happened to be
The Hartley House.

What a coincidence.

What a wonderful thing to do.

STEVE:
Bro! Bro!

Mrs. Teasley's actually
gonna write me a letter

of recommendation to any
college I want to go to.

Do you know what this means?

This means that I get to go
to any college I want to.

I'm gonna go to California
University with you, man.

Steve, Steve, if you kiss
me, I'm gonna slap you.

And you didn't think
she liked me, did you?

She loves me, love.

She loves me,
'cause I'm...

For a year I wanted
to do that to you!

Yes!

Oh, hey, the senior wills are
finally here. How do they look?

I haven't had time
to check them out.

I'm sure they're fine.

Still working on
your speech, huh?

I'm just fine-tuning it.

Mm-hmm, Andrea, you've been
fine-tuning it for a week now.

I'm sure it's as fine-tuned
as it's gonna get.

It's still awful.

Andrea, come on.

No, I mean it.

It's pretentious, trivial,
wishy-washy.

I don't even know what I can
do with it anymore, Brandon.

Would it help you
to run it by me later?

Brandon, you're great.

I love you.

The best.

("Louie Louie" playing)

Donna, wake up your boyfriend

and tell him to put on
his dancing shoes!
No! Shh!

With all the studying
and rehearsing

for the Senior Breakfast,
he's completely drained.

He's missing the Last Day of
the Peach Pit Party right here!

NAT:
Last day at
the Peach Pit?

Last day of high school.

It's the last day
of high school.

Nat, don't worry, because
we're not gonna abandon you

just because
we're graduating!

(whooping, shouting)

Greetings, graduates!
Big boy! Big boy!

Where's Andrea?

Ah, she had some last-minute
worries to take care of.

So, how are
the Senior Wills looking?

Outstanding.

Did you bring us
our advance copy?

Negative, young Kelly,
you're gonna have to wait

to get yours
at the Senior Breakfast

just like everyone else.

How come I don't get to leave
anything in the Senior Will?

Yeah, and Nat ought to be an
honorary member of the class.

Okay, Mr. Bussichio, what
would you like to leave?

Well, I know what I'd like
to leave your father.

(laughs):
That karaoke machine

that almost put me
out of business.

So, Nat, what would
you leave me?

Uh... that singing group that
came in here to serenade you.

Color Me Badd.

What about me, Nat?

Oh, that one's easy...

Laverne.

Wait, who's Laverne?

STEVE:
She's that crazy chick
who used to work for Nat.

(East Coast accent):
Sir! Welcome!

I'm Laverne.
Charmed, I'm sure.

NAT:
I don't get it.

What is it, Halloween?
Hey, don't you
worry, pops.

You'll get no trick-or-treats
with this little lady.

I'm strictly a class act.

A 100% U.S.-certified
hostess with the mostess.

The special plate for
today is spaghetti.

It has meatballs on it,
with a red sauce--

um, I think it's tomato.

And the soup is vegetable
with beefy beef.

Very tasty with saltines.

And for dessert,
we have pie.

We have peach pie, cherry pie,
apple pie, pecan pie,

lemon pie, cream pie
and honey pie.

But if you want
pizza pie,

you gotta go across the street.

Ask for Guido--
he'll take care of ya.

So what will it be?

Maybe we could get Laverne
to make an appearance

at the Senior Breakfast.
Oh, I don't know,
if you're nice to her.

BRANDON:
Hey, Jordan!

Mr. Grad-u-ate.

Congratulations.

Andrea told me your
valedictorian speech

was very eloquent.
Thanks.

But I think
she's exaggerating.

Is she around?

No, she said she had some stuff
she has to take care of.

I guess she forgot
I was coming.

Well, tell her I stopped by
and wish her good luck.
I will.

Hey, Jordan,

um... do me a favor.

When you guys go back
to New Haven,

don't let Andrea
drive herself too crazy.

I won't, if she
ends up going there.

What are you talking about?
She's been dreaming

about going to Yale
since she was born.

She didn't tell you?

She's having a lot of
second thoughts about going.

Well, maybe she did
mention something.

Did it ever occur to you

why she's having
second thoughts?

(crickets chirping)

(Brenda laughs)

(laughs):
Hi, guys.

Hey.
What's wrong?

You got an envelope
from the admissions office

of the University
of Minnesota.

Thick or thin?

Very thick.

Looks like we've
been admitted.

Ew.

What do you want me
to do with these?

Oh, God, relics
from the bimbo era.

I'll take those
if you don't want them.

You don't know
how much room you're going

to have in the new place...
wherever that is.

I was assuming you both
would be living in a dorm.

Perish the thought.

I haven't even been
accepted anywhere yet.

Well, I guess I'll put these
in the "maybe" pile.

God, talk
about change.

New house, new school,
a new life.

Hi, froggy.

I know, it's like you work
so hard to get to the end

of something, and all of a
sudden it starts all over again.

Yeah, but not from square one.

I mean,
you're actually cool now.

Nothing compared
to what you used to be.

Wait, are you saying
that I was once a geek?

Well, I remember
what you were like

when Mel and Jackie
started dating.

Hey, Kel.

Hi.

I heard your mom and my dad

had a pretty swinging time
last night.

That's not what I heard.

No, seriously.

I think they already set up
another date for this week.

Wouldn't it be cool

if we ended up
step-brother and step-sister?

(eerie music playing)

(shower running)

(water stops)

David, get out of here!

Mom!

I'm sorry, I didn't know
you were in here.

Get out of here, now!

I-I'm sorry...

Oh, my God.

(groans)

Okay, I've apologized for that
numerous times already.

I know, I know.

Living with you actually
turned out to be kind of fun.

I just wish Mel and Jackie's

marriage had worked out.

Yeah, well, at least you got
a baby sister out of it.

And a brother.

Anybody want some more fudge?

I think we're fine, Mom.
No.

Okay, on the plus side
for Minnesota,

it has an exceptional
drama department,

you can take your
junior year abroad...

You can do that through
California University, too.

Not in Paris.

You've already
been to Paris.

Brandon, what is it with you?

Look, I understand why
you applied to Minnesota,

but seeing as everyone's
getting along so well now,

California University is
rated as a much better school.

Not to mention the fact--
Dad, you'll appreciate this--

it's also a much
cheaper school.

BRENDA:
Brandon, just
because I got in,

doesn't mean
I have to go.

Fine, then I guess
it's settled.

Well, I don't think we should
be too hasty about this.

I'd like to keep
my options open.

JIM:
Well, another plus for
California University,

aside from being a great school.

Thank you.

All your friends are here.

And we're here.

I don't have to make
my decision right now, do I?

(Brandon chuckles,
doorbell rings)

I'll get it.

Sorry, Mom.

Listen, Brenda,

this going away to school, um...

it doesn't have anything
to do with Dylan, does it?

Mom, this is the '90s.

What kind of insecure
wuss chooses a college

based on where
some guy is going?

Hi!

What are you eating?

"And so, as we travel
the unfathomable paths

"which weave before us,
we do so with the clarity

of our vision and the certainty
of our stride..."

Wait, do you think
that that should be

the "strength
of our convictions"

or the "strength
of our certainty"?

I'm still back on
"the unfathomable path."

It's the worst, isn't it?

No, no, no,
it's not the worst.

It just seems like you're
trying to conform to some image

of what you think you
should be saying

instead of deciding what
it is you want to say.

You're right.

You are absolutely right,
but what am I supposed to do?

If I throw this out,
I will have to do

a page one rewrite by tomorrow.

I can't do that,
I will be a basket case.

I don't even know
what I would write about.

Andrea.
I mean, how do I know that

that speech would be any better
than this speech?

Andrea.
You know what?

I may as well tell them
I have laryngitis

because at this point,
Brandon, it would not be so far

from the truth, my throat
is killing me, I don't even...

Andrea, get a grip
on yourself, would ya?

Look at yourself, relax.

You're having a panic attack.

The speech
is not that bad.

It just needs
a little fine-tuning.

In fact, I'll help you with it

for as long as it takes, okay?

Brandon...
how am I going to get

through college without you?

I'm sure you'll manage.

You know, the day you
walked into that newsroom,

I knew... knew that
you were special.

You thought I was tripe
the first time you met me.

Yeah.

But that all changed
after you followed me home

to my parents'
house in Van Nuys.

That is the day that I knew
that I could trust you.

And so began
a beautiful friendship.

Well, it hasn't been
just a friendship, has it?

I guess you could say
our relationship's

had its ups and downs.

So what's the big
surprise, huh?

Well, I've, uh...

I've got a going away
present for you.

Well, what is it?

Uh, well, um...

(giggles):
Ta-da...

What?

The carousel, the horse, what?

No, I'm....

I'm giving you
the person on my horse.

Uh, if you'll take her.

What?

Look, Brandon, we may never
see each other again and I...

I want good-bye to be
a moment we both remember.

Oh, my God!

I know exactly why this
speech isn't working.

Why?

Because it's not
coming from the heart.

It is exactly like you said.

I am trying to live up
to this image of being a Yalie,

when I know deep inside
I should probably

just stay in town and go
to California University.

Andrea, you've got
to go to Yale.

You can't give that up
because of me, I'm not worth it.

Brandon...
It's true that we challenge

and support each other and all
that, it's very true.

Brandon...
But we just don't have
the kind of relationship

that you should give up
your life's dream for.

Just hold it, okay, Brandon.

You are starting
to sound like me.

I am?
Yes.

If I don't go
to school back East,

it's because I don't want to be
in hock for the rest of my life.

I mean, do you know how
expensive Yale is?

I think I have
a pretty good idea.

Sorry I jumped to conclusions.

It's okay.

(knocking)

Hey.
Hi, Smush.

Kel, if you tell anybody
that I let you call me that

I'll kill you.
(TV playing)

Well, my lips are sealed.

That's the way
I like them.

What are you watching?

Oh, I'm not really watching.

I was just sort of reading
about California University.

Oh, really?
Yeah.

I think we'd have
a good time here.

You think so, huh?

Well, my dad was real
high on the idea

of me going
to college, so...

I don't know, I figure
I'll check it out

for a little while.

I suppose, but the thought
of going back to school

for four more years
is just overwhelming.

Well, at least we'll be
overwhelmed together.

You've used that
line on me before.

Have not.
Yes, you have.

When?

The night in the pool.

KELLY:
This was a good idea.

I'm full of good ideas.

(Kelly laughs)

Don't do that
if you don't mean it.

I mean it.

Well, you're in trouble now.

Dylan, what if Brenda
had come tonight?

(laughs)

She didn't.

So is that how you
made up your mind?

'Cause she's not here?

Maybe.

Mel and my mom are breaking up
because he was fooling around.

I just can't feel that great
about being the other woman.

Look, it was you two who
gave me that dumb ultimatum.

You said choose.

I chose and I chose you.

I want you.

I've always wanted you.

(doorbell ringing)

Why does this always
happen to us?

(sighing):
Don't move.

Who is it?

Dylan, it's me.

It's my mother.

(huffs)

Unbelievable.

Hi!

(sighs)

What a pleasant surprise.

Did you really think I'd
miss your graduation?

You missed practically
everything else in my life.

Oh, you're in a snarly mood.

Aren't you the least bit
tickled to see me?

I'm stunned actually.

Can't you pick up the
phone like a normal person

and call and let me
know that you're coming?

Because I was afraid
you'd tell me to stay home

and I was hoping we could
spend a few days together.

Besides, half the fun
is catching you

with a girl in the bedroom.

Did I, did I catch you
with a girl in the bedroom?

No, no, you didn't,
we were on the couch.

Kelly!

You're still with Kelly?

You know, you barge in here,

you expect me to welcome
you with open arms

when the fact
of the matter is

when I needed you,
you were unreachable.

I was on a trek in the Andes.

Oh, yeah, I was just
at my father's funeral.

And I called you
as soon as I heard.
Right.

What'd you expect? It was
bad timing, you and I, huh?

(clears throat)

Hi, Kelly.

I would love to stop and chat,
but apparently this visit

is going to be shorter
than I thought.

What's it going to be?

The Hilton or the Bel Age?

That will not be necessary.
It's on me.

So I see I've outlived
my usefulness

now you're
a full-fledged millionaire.

DYLAN:
Yeah, reservations, please.

Did he rush right out
and get a Gold Card?

Hi, this is
Dylan McKay.

I need your
best suite

for Iris McKay.

Make sure it's non-smoking.

I'm sorry.

No, don't apologize, dear.

Just be careful.

Money changes people.

Garcon, make that two.

Très bien.

You see, that wasn't
so hard, was it?

Bon appétit.

Bon appétit.

Cervelle de veau.

(scoffs)

Wait a second.

I ordered veal.

Me oui, cervelle de veau.

Bon appétit.

Okay, it looks weird,
but I'm sure it's edible.

You're right.

About now I could eat
just about anything.

It's very, uh... French.

It's, uh, it's kind of mushy.

It's brains.

(group laughing)

How could
you do that?

Donna, Donna, we're on soon.

We've still got
to get into costume.

Okay, let's go.

Break a leg.

BRANDON:
How could you
order veal anyway?

STEVE:
I like veal, I like veal.

(all talking)

Au revoir,
Mademoiselle Donna.

Have fun.

Me oui.

That's a pretty funny
bit with the cow brains.

Yeah.
(chuckles)

What's the matter?

I really loved being
in Paris,

but I can't help wondering
what would be

if I hadn't gone.

Does anybody else know you've
been accepted to Minnesota?

Okay.

Get this.

Some people would rather live
in Beverly Hills

than here
in Aurora, Illinois.

No way.

And they actually say
that it's kind of cool

to go
to West Beverly High.

No way.
Way.

No way.
Way!

And these same people
also say...

BOTH:
Live from West Beverly High,
it's the Senior Breakfast!

(crowd cheering)

STEVE:
It's the Senior
Breakfast with...

David Silver, Donna Martin,

Mrs. T. and the class of '93,

special musical guest

the Wildcat Singers.

And here he
is now...

David Silver!

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you, Steve.

Could you please come up here
for a minute?

Come on.

Now, somebody found
something

and they, they thought
it might belong to you.

Oh, yep, it's a legacy key.

They say it unlocks
every door

to every boys' bathroom
in the entire school.

(crowd cheering)

Aren't you late for
detention, Steve?

Let's hear it for Steve.

(crowd cheering)

And let's hear it for my partner
in crime Donna Martin.

Whoo, whoo, whoo!

Whoo!

Okay, now, I know most
of you have seen

David's video yearbook,

but we thought you'd like
to see some of the outtakes

that didn't make it
on the reel,

starting
with the camping trip

that some of us
will never forget.

He's not going
to show that.

DAVID:
It's a brand new morning
here at Hukamuk Lodge

and as you can see,

some campers tend
to be less bright-eyed

and bushy-tailed than others.

We've heard tell of some wild
boar living in these parts.

STEVE:
Give me a break, okay?

Oh, isn't it a little early
for this, David?

David, get out!

(Steve blowing nose)

BRENDA (on video):
Steve, what are you doing?

STEVE:
Leave me alone.

KELLY:
He's clearing his sinuses
or so he claims.

STEVE:
It's true.

BRENDA:
I am starving...

Man, this
is beautiful.

Whoa!
Brandon!

Oh!

(grunts)
Brandon!

Where are you at, man?

(straining)
Brandon!

Dylan, get back, man,
the ledge is going to go.

All right, man, grab my hand.

I-I can't, man, I can't let go.

You gotta try.

Come on.

(grunts)

Don't look down.

Look up here.

Look right here.

All right, come on.

(both grunting)

(applause)

And for being so graceful
on the gridiron,

your trophies.

Let's give it up for
the varsity backfield.

You're dead,
Silver.

Thank you, Tony.

And now, Brenda Walsh
and Kelly Taylor, come on down.

Uh-oh.
Hey, now.

Here goes nothing.

Now, you guys don't know this,

but Brenda and Kelly are the
only students at West Beverly

to ever win a prize
on a radio call-in show

and I don't think either
of them will ever forget

the prize
that they won.

Okay, everybody,
watch the monitors.

I don't know, Kel.

This might have to be
a solo mission on your part.

KELLY:
Brenda, I couldn't do that
to you.

You're my best friend.

I have to help you
face your fears.

No, Kelly!

(both screaming)

This is so amazing!

Brenda, get me down!

(both screaming)

(cheering and applause)

Here's a little memento
of that experience

for both of you.

Ooh.
Thanks.

But don't go yet

because I want you guys and
Donna to turn the clocks back

and say hello

to Hello Day.

(cheering and applause)

Wasn't that great,
everybody?

Brenda and Kelly were up

all night writing and
choreographing that one.

Good job, guys.

I just want you to know
that was not my idea.

Hey, I'm not complaining.

You guys want to get up there
and make fools of yourselves,

be my guest.

Thanks for
being here.

It's been a great year
and, uh...

Not so fast, Davey.

What retrospective would be
complete without an award

to West Beverly's #1
song-and-dance man, huh?

Hit it, Gary.

What's he doing?

You'll see.

(music playing)

(crowd cheering)

Oh, this is from
the spring dance.

Yeah, the pre-Donna era.

You guys, this is great.

I missed most of it
because I came late that night.

Yeah.

I missed most of it, too.

Dylan, this is so beautiful.

Do you know

why I'm so lucky?

Why?

How many girls get to have
sex for the first time

with someone they love?

I don't know.

I've never really taken
an opinion poll.

Mm.

Dylan!
Whoo!

Dylan, stop!

Put me down!

(huffs)
I'm sorry.

I just can't
control myself.

Well, don't
fight it.

We are in the room.

We certainly are.

(music playing)

(crowd cheering)

Th-th-th-that's all, folks!

You got
a standing ovation.

Doesn't that count
for something?

I just feel kind of
burned out, that's all.

Well, of course you do.

I mean, anybody would

with the schedule you've
been carrying all this year.

But it's over now.

(sighs)

Yeah, it's over.

Now I can't figure out

why I've been pushing
myself so hard

when I could
have just stayed

and been king of the
mountain for another year.

David, you wanted
to be with your friends.

I didn't want to be
left behind, but...

it's like everyone knows what
they're gonna do except me.

I don't know. I just feel
like the gang's breaking up.

Well, you still have me.

KELLY:
Steve, this project
was a great idea.

STEVE:
Thank you.

Steve, Steve,
Steve, Steve, Steve,

try not go get your pawprints
on everything.

Oh, like you're one
to talk, huh?

You guys,
this is so classy.

DONNA:
Yeah, it's getting there.

Yeah, well, it would have gone
a lot quicker

if Zuckerman and Silver
hadn't flaked out on us.

Excuse me,
David needed some sleep.

Yeah, and Andrea seemed very
edgy at the senior breakfast.

Yeah, I would be, too,
if I had to stand up

in front of all those people
and give a speech like that.

Actually, she's a lot
more stressed out

about Yale than
anything else.

Yeah?

The pressures
of the Ivy League?

Actually, the pressures of
how to pay for the Ivy League.

She's seriously
considering staying here.

Man, that sucks. You know,
Yale is one of the best colleges

in the country.
If they accepted her,

she should go.

Well, maybe you should give
her some financial aid.

BRANDON:
Yeah, bro, you're going to be

a multimillionaire one day.
You know,

come to think of it, I
could use some aid myself.

So could I.

Yeah, couldn't
we all?

I'm sorry.

I was... just kidding.

We'll talk
about it later.

Oh, good,
you're home early.

Well, it isn't
every day

your kids graduate
from high school.

Isn't that the truth?

So where are
our scholars?

Oh, they're out back with
Dylan and Kelly and company.

The gang's
all here.

And she asked us
not to say anything

about Minnesota
in front of them.

Which means what?

I don't know... and
I don't think she does either.

(sighs)

They grow up so fast.

Remember the first time
we left them home alone?

(sighs)

How could I forget?

Ah...

Oh, this is heaven.

Honey, I see Trudy.

Where?
Over there.

Quick, let's duck down.

It's no use.
They're wearing robes.

They're coming this way.

Honey, we must be on
the same wavelength.

We have been looking all over
for you lovebirds to see

if you want to take a little
splish-splash with us,

and here you are,

right where we were
hoping you'd be.

How are you tonight, Cindy?

I'm fine, Bob.

How are you?

I'm game.

Speaking of games,

we've got a tennis
game tomorrow...

TRUDY:
Oh, come on now,

Jimbo, I've been waiting
all weekend to go around

the goosy-goosy,
ducky-ducky with you.

What's she talking about?

I don't know.

But, honey, Trudy and Bob
aren't wearing bathing suits.

Oh, my God.

(phone ringing)
If that's them,

I'm going straight
to the management.

Jim...
It's almost 2:00
in the morning, for God's sake.

(ringing continues)

Hello.

Mom, it's me.

Hi, Brenda.

Sorry I called so late.

What's wrong?

Brandon was
in a car accident tonight,

but he's okay.

Brandon was in
a car accident.

Brenda, what happened?

He was driving alone.

So I don't really know.

But he's all right.

Where's Brandon now, honey?

He's in jail, Daddy.

They arrested him
for drunk driving.

I'm really sorry, Dad.

That had to be the worst
night I ever spent.

Oh, and the next few days
afterwards were...

so tense around here.

That they were.

Oh, hi.

I was getting into this novel
your mom recommended.

Actually, I was hoping
we could talk.

Yeah, me, too.

'Cause... the other night

wasn't exactly the first
time I had a drink.

I figured as much.

How'd you know?

Believe it or not I
was your age once, too.

And you lived to tell about it?

So will you, Brandon.

I've always been a sucker
for happy endings.

Ozzie and Harriet alert,
left flank.

Steve, that's our parents
you're talking about.

Besides, what does that
make us, David and Ricky?

No, no, no, Mr. Walsh,
you can't look.

It's a surprise.

Forget about it, Dad.

The backyard is off limits
until further notice.

You're just gonna have to wait

with the rest of America
until we graduate.

Them's da breaks, Jimbo.

You know, the first time I met
you, you were just as filthy

as you are now.
Oh, yeah?

Mm-hmm, only it was from
the grease from Brandon's car.

Yeah, I asked you if
I could take a shower.

And I said yes.

(shower running)

Brandon, can't you ever
shut the door?

I mean, it's hot enough
in here already!

Sorry.

Uh, no, it's okay.

You, uh, keep
popping up on me today.

Yeah.

So you were saying you're, uh...
into videotape, huh?

Yeah, I like movies.

You ever see
Animal Crackers?

You know, Marx Brothers?

I think so, on TV.

Oh, it's so much better
on the big screen.

It's too bad
you're on duty tonight

or you could see what I mean.

Well, actually my
plans got poxed.

You want to come along?

Yeah.

(phone ringing)

CINDY:
Hello.

Iris!

Oh, it's so nice
to hear your voice.

Iris...

Tell her
I'm not here.

Well, yes, he's right here.

Um, just a minute.

Oh, what now?

It's for me?

I'll take it inside.
That's my cue.

Oh, no, you're not
bailing on us, McKay.

Come on, man,
it's a masterpiece.

You guys can handle it.
Later, bro.

I'm out of here, too.

Donna, you can't leave.

You're my inspiration for this.
Right.

I think everybody's gonna
bail on you at this point.

What time is your
hair appointment?

Brenda, where
are you going?

Steve, I'm walking my friends
to their car, is that okay?

All right,
all right, go ahead.

Your brother and I'll just wait
here till the paint dries.

In the meantime, I'm sure
he's gonna challenge me

to a game of all-world horse,
and in that case,

I'm just gonna
have to whip his butt.

Oh, yeah, oh yeah.

The form that made him famous!

So, what was that again?

It's between the legs,
spin in the air,

fade away jumper.

No handstands?
No cartwheels?

None of that,
I'm saving that all

for the playoffs, big guy.
Okay.

Bran, you know one
of the reasons

why you and I
clicked so well

is because you need
me to push you past

the bounds of the normal,
the ordinary, the conventional.

Straight into the cesspool
of corruption and depravity.

I wouldn't go that far.

Oh, no?

Do you remember the night
we went out trolling for chicks?

Steve?
What?

You remember those two
girls who were waiting

out in front of the club
when we were trying to get in?

One of them's wearing
a pair of biker shorts

with garter belts sticking
out under the stockings

and the other one's wearing
one of those tops that

looks like a bra, but isn't
a bra, but is a bra.

Yeah, they were hot.

They're coming this way.

Oh, I knew we were
gonna get lucky.

Hi.
Hi.

Hi.
Hi.

God, I love your car,
it's so hot.

So what're you ladies
doing this evening?

I don't know.

What are we doing?

I wanna drive it.

What?

Your car, I wanna drive it.

Sure, anytime.

I wanna... I wanna drive it now.

Now?

Um, everybody
out of the car.

Trina wants
to drive it.

Now?

Only for a minute, I wanna
drive around the parking lot.

(gears grinding)

Easy... she's
stripping my gears.

Had enough yet?

No. Come on!

What, what're you doing?

Where you going?

What's going on?

Steve, I don't think
they're coming back.

Brandon, shut up.
They're coming back.

We're gonna wait right
here until they do.

I can't believe
what a moron I am.

What's my dad gonna
say about this?

What if people
at school find out?

I'm gonna be totally humiliated.

You gotta swear.

You gotta swear you're not
gonna tell anybody about this.

Scout's honor.

What?
Scout's honor.

No one's ever said
that to me before.

Well, that's
the problem, Steve.

Things like this don't
happen to good Scouts.

Is it too late to join?

I never did make
a very good Boy Scout.

You've come a long way, Steve.

Even Mrs. Teasley thinks so.

Well, my abilities
as a scam artist

have certainly improved anyway.

You know that letter
of recommendation

Mrs. Teasley is
writing for me?
Yeah.

Well, she's only doing it
because of that $10,000

I won at the
half court shot.

Well, I anonymously
donated that

to the Alvarado
Street School.

That's not a scam, Steve.

That's a good deed.

Yeah, it is a good deed.

But I made sure that
my anonymous donation

was eminently traceable

to a Mr. Hartley
of the Hartley House.

I see, you wanted
to be found out

so you'd be rewarded,
is that it?

Bingo.

Still Steve, you took
a big chance with that money.

And either way, a lot
of kids from East L.A.

are gonna have a great
summer thanks to you.

Face it, Sanders.

Deep down you're
a Boy Scout, too.

And you're H-O-R-S.

Not for long, watch this.

All right.
Through the legs.

H-O-R-S,
through the legs,

turn around,
fade away jumper.
Ready?

Here we go.

Walsh!

David, do me a favor,
if you're going to mope,

would you do it
somewhere else, please?

You know, you're acting
like such a wet noodle.

You didn't even ask me how
it went at the Walshes' house.

Did you finish?
Yes, we did.

And it's incredible,
you should've been there.

Yeah, well,
the way things are going,

I'm not so sure
I'll be coming tonight.

What are you talking about?

We are graduating
for God's sake.

What, are you still upset

about misnumbering
your chemistry test?

Well, I figure if I flunk

they'll still let me
stay another year.

Why would you want to do that?

You already did high school.

I mean, just think about
how much you've done

since the ninth grade.

But that's the problem.

Every time I think
about being a freshman,

I think about Scott.

♪ Breaking up is hard to do ♪

♪ They say that breaking up... ♪

Hi.

Hey.
Hey, I...

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I didn't know the rifle
would weird you out.

You sure did change this summer.

I just went away for vacation.

I didn't change that much.

Well, maybe I did.

Yeah, you're a big man
around here now,

and... and I'm still a geek.

You're not a geek.

Maybe we can hang out next week.

Yeah, I'll call you.

Yeah.

Scott.

Cool it with the guns, will you?

Okay.

DAVID:
Scott!
(gunshot)

Why don't you just tell me
something about Scott.

Just some memory.

Just something that not too
many other people would know

and we'll leave it at that.

Well, he sucked his thumb
till he was eight.

Is that what you had in mind?

Come on, David,
we're putting out this issue

as a tribute to Scott.

Why?

So people can glance at it and
then throw it in the garbage?

No, so people can get some kind
of an idea as to who he was.

Look, he was a jerk, okay?
(microphone feedback)

He was a jerk who blew himself
away, that's who he was.

You don't know, you left early.

You missed out on the fun part
when he picked up a loaded gun

and twirled it around
like Wyatt Earp.

You weren't there
to see him goof up

and shoot himself
and bleed all over

his mom's Persian rug.

David, the microphone is on.

I don't care.

No one gave a rat's ass
about Scott until he died.

And I was the worst one of all.

He was my best friend
and I dropped him

because he wasn't cool
like you or Kelly or Steve.

David.

So they're looking at me.

So what?

They've been looking
at me for days, Brandon.

I can't even walk through
the hall without somebody

in my face trying to cheer me up
like they're my new best friend.

Well, what about
my old best friend?

It doesn't matter
what you write about him

in that paper, Brandon.

It doesn't matter
what you say

about somebody
once they're gone.

What matters is how you treat
them when they're still here.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Oh, hi, Donna.

Well, you can ask him yourself.

She wants to know
how you're feeling.

I'm starting to come around.

Just let me know
when you're done.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

KELLY (on phone):
Hi.

Hi, what's up?

Not too much.

I'm just getting ready to go out
for my manicure.

I wanted to check in.

Uh-huh.
I also wanted to say

that I'll never talk about
your bank account again.

It's no one's business,
especially mine.

I appreciate the call.

See you in a couple of hours?

With bells on.

Bye.
Bye.

(dial tone, phone beeps off)

So there I am sitting
at the Senior Breakfast,

and I'm thinking
about Minnesota.

And I wanted to say,
"Hey, everybody, I got in."

But something held me back.

Maybe you thought they would
try and convince you to stay?

Or maybe I was scared
that they wouldn't.

What do you want to do?

I'm torn.

My surefire remedy
in a case like this

is to just flip a coin.

Is that what you did
with me and Kelly?

Sorry, that didn't
come out right.

You don't have to answer that.

No, I want to.

Because what I think
you're really asking me is,

if there were no Kelly, would
you and I still be together?

The thought has
crossed my mind.

The truth is...

I don't know.

I loved you more
than I ever thought

I could love anybody,
maybe that was the problem.

It was just too intense
for both of us.

Yeah, I guess right
from the start it was...

it was just so volatile.

Look, do you wanna take a walk
on the beach or something?

Oh, yeah, check out the homeless
people? That'll be great.

Dylan, I don't know
what happened up there!

That's right,
you don't!

If you'd let me finish...!
Excuse me.

I have a knack for
interrupting things.

Dylan...
I'm real good at interrupting

because I've had just
about enough noise

for one night, okay?!

Excuse me, can you
get me a taxi, please?

Forget the taxi!

No, I want a taxi!

No, just come on, damn it!

Stop yelling at me!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Just let me go.

Brenda, I'm an idiot.
Please don't leave.

You're scaring me!

I'm sorry.

Dylan, what happened?

He just gets to me.

He always gets to me.

I don't know what
I'm supposed to...

(moans)

It's okay.

(sobbing)

We did have some
good time, though.

Like that week in Baja
when you taught me how to surf

and we danced all night.

Not all night.

Too bad my dad
couldn't understand

what we were all about.
Hmm.

Where is she?

She doesn't want to see you.

That's too bad.

You tell her to get her
things and come out here.

I'm sorry, I can't do that.

I'm not leaving, Daddy.

You get your bags young
lady, we're going home.

No.

Not until you accept Dylan
as part of my life.

We'll talk about it at home.

That's not good enough.

Brenda, you come out
here right now.
(door closes)

So what're you gonna do?

You gonna go down and drag
her out kicking and screaming?

That's what this has come to.

Dylan, whatever this
has come to,

it hasn't come to that.

I guess that was
the beginning of the end.

Yeah, for us to live
together at that point

was a huge mistake.

And you got so
incredibly offended

when I tried to clean
this place up.

Well, hey, dust adds
a little character.

I guess Kelly
doesn't mind it, huh?

I guess not.

Was that her
on the phone before?

Yeah.

Why didn't you
tell her I was here?

She didn't ask.

But I have a question
for you, Bren.

Why'd you come over here?

I guess I wanted
to say good-bye.

In private.

How private?

(doorbell chimes)

Ooh, saved by the bell.

IRIS:
Dylan, are you there?

It figures.

Is that Iris?
Who else?

Do you mind telling me
exactly what it is

you have against the telephone?

I'd rather you told me
what it is you have against me.

That was a very chilly reception
you gave me last night.

I thought it over,
and it's come to this:

my bags are packed.

And either the taxi takes me

straight to your
graduation ceremony

or to the airport.

It's up to you.

Mom, the graduation,
it doesn't start for 90 minutes.

I guess I'm still
on Hawaiian time.

Come on in.

Say hello to Brenda.

Brenda!

Iris, hi.
Good to see you.

Well, it's good to see you.

I hope I wasn't
interrupting anything.

No, actually
I was just leaving.

I just came to get some
advice from an old friend.

Bye. I'll see you in 90 minutes.

Bye.
Bye.

KELLY:
Mom.

Yeah?
I'm getting ready to head over.

Look for me in the "T's."

I'll see you there.

Oh, I'm so proud of you.

Thank you.

Are you proud of me?

Yes, you better be.

You know, she's
getting so big

and I have known you
your whole life, Erin.

Just think, if I hadn't
stayed here this summer

to help you with
the baby, then...

Dylan and I may have
never gotten together.

See, sometimes things
do work out.

Yep, although that
living together idea,

you don't have to
worry about it.

It's not in the cards.

What did he say?

I didn't even
bring it up.

I mean, I know he
cares about me,

but he really is a loner.

He reminds me of your father.

Let's just hope he
doesn't turn out to be

so much of an emotional
no-show.

Well, at least Dad called.

Yeah, he should've
been here.

Well, I think I know what
I'll major in in college.

Psychology.

I may join you.

I'll see you over there.

Bye.
Wish me luck.

BRENDA:
Why are you wearing a tie?

This is a very
solemn occasion.

I can't believe this
day has finally come.

Yeah, believe it.

It's time for the big sayonara.

Yeah.

We've been
through a lot together

over the past three years.

Ah, it's been a piece of cake.

(scoffs)

Maybe for you, Mr. Confident,
Mr. I've Got It Wired.

Come on, Bren.

When we first moved here,
I was pretty spooked.

That's not how
I remember it.

I miss Minneapolis.

No, you don't.

Yeah, I do.

Nothing was this complicated.

Brandon, are we going
to make it here?

Well, the houses are bigger,
the weather's warmer,

but it doesn't mean they've
cracked the meaning of life,

know what I mean?

Yeah, I know.

Yes, I always was a sage,
even as a wee young laddie.

You know what
else you are?

(laughs)

If you can't say
something nice...

Seriously,
Brandon.

Okay, Bren, what else am I?

No matter how crazed or bent
out of shape I ever got,

you were always there for
me and I'll never forget it.

You really are
my best friend.

Well, I hope
I always will be.

STEVE:
I can't believe my mom's
here signing autographs.

And there's my father.

You like
your dad.

Yeah, but did he have to bring
the Wicked Witch of the North

and the three flying
monkey children?

Well, at least he came.

Yeah, Steve,

just click your heels
together three times

and you'll be home
before you know it.

Yeah, well, speaking
of heels, big guy,

those are some
pretty kicking boots.

What did they set you back,
about 800 bucks?

Just a graduation
present.

Your mom get you those?

Steve, what does it
matter where I got 'em

or how much
they cost?

They're just
boots, all right?

So how are you doing?

I'm psyched.

I made some final adjustments
on my speech

and if my throat holds out,
I'll be great.

Good, good,
glad to hear it.

I'd better get some water.

I'll be right back.

KELLY (sing-songy):
Donna.

I just wanted
to wish you good luck.

What's the matter?

Well, when I think

if it wasn't for you and
Brandon and everyone,

I wouldn't
even be here.

I love you, too.

Hey, hey, hey, can I
get in on this action?

Well, that's
a major mood swing.

Yeah, well, I just
talked to Ms. Temaka

and it seems that I got
the second highest grade

on my chemistry exam.

The one you thought you flunked?

Guess that says something
for misnumbering.

Guess so.

Oh, come here,
you guys.

We're graduating!

Hey, Andrea, good
luck on that speech.

Thank you.

(chuckles)

I'm real proud
of you, son.

And if it takes the
pressure off, I just want you

to know that you don't have
to go to college on my account.

From here on out, you got
to do what's right for you.

drum roll

(fanfare playing)

It's show time!

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Break a leg, chief.

Thanks, ace.

Let's do it.

♪ ♪

(crowd applauding)

Ladies and gentlemen, may
I present the graduating class

of nineteen hundred
and ninety-three.

Andrea, what's the matter?

I lost my speech.

H-Hey, Andrea,
don't worry about it.

You've been over
it so many times

I'm sure you have it
memorized by now.

I'm glad that you're
so sure about it

because I am a complete
and total blank.

And so I am honored to introduce

valedictorian
of the class of 1993.

Ugh!

I'm seeing spots.

I am hyperventilating.

Maybe if you put your head
between your knees.

I'd rather put my tail
between my legs.

Andrea.

Brandon, I am going to be the
laughingstock of Beverly Hills.

Nobody is going
to laugh at you.

Right, they're just going
to throw things at me.

All right,
knock it off.

That's enough.

You're not going to wimp
out on me, you hear?

On you?

Damn right
on me.

I helped you work on
that speech for hours

and I've listened to
you agonize for years

over your grade
point average

and your
permanent record

and I'm not going
to let you blow this.

Now, you've practically
got a photographic memory,

so you get yourself
together, you get up there,

and you use it,
you hear me?

MEYERS:
As the faculty advisor...

Thanks, Brandon.

You're welcome.

Um, j-just one thing....

Do you remember
how my speech started?

And so without
further ado,

let us all welcome
Andrea Zuckerman,

valedictorian,

class of 1993.

Thank you...

(microphone feeds back)

...Mr. Meyers,

Ms. Teasley, uh,
fellow graduates,

ladies and gentlemen.

Uh, today we stand here united
as a class.

Tomorrow we go our separate ways
as individuals...

on our own... i-individually.

We...

we do this

to follow the paths...
unfathomable paths

which weave
before us...

Oh, no.

What's the matter?

She went back to
the old version.

Oh.
(chuckles)

We do so with the certainty...

with the certainty...

(sighs)

...that we don't have
the faintest idea

what we're doing at all.

(laughter)

(applause)

Which could be
a very frightening prospect

in a world where the...

in a world
where the boundaries of nations

and the balance of nature
can change overnight,

except that the years that
we have spent at West Beverly

have given us the foundation
to face that future.

We haven't just learned
facts and figures,

logic
and reasoning skills,

but we have learned the value
of friendship...

friendship, loyalty, and love,

which will not be diminished
just because we may not

end up together.

The memories that we have shared
will not go away

simply because we do.

So even if the future
does not always meet

our expectations

or the fates
are cruel

to us at times,

no one...

can ever take this moment
from me.

From me, from you,
from any of us.

No one can ever take away

this moment in time.

(applause)

COACH CHAPMAN:
Gary Achatell.

Michael Anderson.

Ross Anderson.

You know, they don't really
give you your diploma now.

It's just a blank
piece of paper.

So does that mean
you don't want it?

Are you crazy?

(chuckling)
Come on.

STEVE:
Look out, your dad just
took out the video camera.

DAVID:
Oh, you know how dads are.

Not really.

He didn't even have the
courtesy to call this time.

He had some woman who
claimed to be his secretary

call and leave
a message for me...

"Your father's very sorry,

but he'll make it up
to you next time."

Kel, you gotta believe
there'll be a next time.

Bradley Luganis.

(applause)

Denise Maplethorpe.
Donna's up next.

Donna Martin.

I don't intend
to sleep with you.

Oh, oh-oh-oh,
it's-it's too soon.

I can see that.

No, I'm not gonna do that

with anybody.

You mean ever?

Well, with my husband of course.

I mean, I'm not
entering a convent

or anything for God's sake.

It's just...

for right now, for me,
life is complicated enough

without getting involved
in a sexual relationship.

So I guess driving to Vegas
is out of the question?

Brian Mackelroy.

Dylan McKay.

What's this?

Oh, a little leisure reading.

Byron, The Collected Works?

Mad, bad and dangerous to know.

That was him and that's me.

Daniel Messlier.

Marissa Neimon.

Jim Neigrant.

Niku Rushdie.

Steve Sanders.

David Silver.

Kelly Taylor.

Janice Thall.

Thomas Thatcher.

Ronald Thindell.

Kelly, I never knew
you were so...

Schmaltzy?

"Sentimental" is the word
I was looking for.

No, you don't understand.

My father's here.

Where?

Doreen Vantine.

Elizabeth Walker.

Brandon Walsh.

Brenda Walsh.

You just got to
understand Brenda,

one minute you're my
little girl and then...

all of a sudden you're
taking pregnancy tests.

Things are moving kind
of fast for your old man.

Well, maybe I'm not
your little girl anymore.

You'll always be my little girl.

And last, but by no means least,

Andrea Zuckerman.

Congratulations, Andrea,

and good luck at Yale.

Thank you, Mr. Meyers--
I mean, Gil.

Ladies and gentlemen,
the Class of 1993.

(applause)

(cheering)

BRANDON:
Steve, Steve?

What time is everybody
showing up tonight?

Late, very late.

After 2:00.
Cool.

Dude, I am psyched.

It's grad night
and you graduated!

Yes! Yes! Ah!

CINDY:
Brandon, Steve.

BRANDON:
What?
Come on.

Come on, guys.
(shutter clicks)

Great!
Come on, everybody.

(all talking at once)

Okay, okay.

I'll be back.

Well, do you feel
any different?

Yeah, I do.

It's not because
I got a diploma,

and this will really
sound bizarre to you.

I'm all ears.

I had this
feeling all day,

very strongly, that
Jack was with us.

I could swear for a
minute that he was...

he was talking to me.

Well, maybe he was.

Let me get a picture
of you two.

May I take one
of the three of you?

Oh, we'd be honored.
I'd love it.

Hi.
Hey, how're you doing?

Good.

Guess where I'm going?

Dinner with your mom?

And my dad.

Your dad?

So that's
your dad?

Yep, that's him.

Now I know how I'm gonna
remember this day.

It's the day I saw
my mom and my dad

together in the same place.

(phone ringing)

CINDY:
Oh, let me guess.

It was Brenda calling
to say, "Don't wait up."

No, it was Dylan.

He's coming over.

Now? I mean, it's so late.

He's coming over
in three minutes.

He called from his
new cellular phone.

Nothing quite as
disconcerting

as the sight of a young
man with cash to burn.

DYLAN:
Did you ever notice

how people get
a little weird around money?

Money'll do that to you.

Yeah, I'm not talking about
the person who gets the money.

I'm talking about
the people around him.

Well, the biggest trap
that people fall into

when they suddenly
find themselves

in a higher
income bracket,

they start acquiring
a lot of new possessions,

and new people.

In the process, they kind of
lose touch with who they were.

Hmm... that's not
gonna happen to me.

I hope you're right.

And to be sure...

I want to give
my money back to you.

In the trust, like before.

You mean you spent
all that energy

trying to get the money
out of the trust

and now you want
to put it back?

I want the same thing,
you know, I mean,

where I get a check every
month for my living expenses.

I just, uh... I'd like it
to be a little more.

I can understand that.

And, uh,
I need a sizeable advance.

I think I'm gonna go bum around
Europe for most of the summer.

And what about college?

I don't know.

I mean, I'm coming back.

I suppose I'll get there
eventually.

I just,
I-I really need a break, Jim.

I think Jack would understand.

So...

you think the trust can be
reinstated?

I think we can work it out.

I must say
I'm pleasantly surprised.

I was afraid that you
might fall into that trap.

Well, if I ever do,
cut me off, all right?

Last thing I need
right now is deep pockets.

So...

if you'll excuse me,

I got a date
with some fools on the hill.

What are you guys
doing up there anyway?

(chuckling):
You'll find out.

You're as bad as Brandon.

I'll take that as a compliment.

Oh, boy.

Wow, look at the view.

Wait, are you sure
this is the way?

Yeah. We just gotta
be careful.

Of what?

Lions and tigers and bears.

(laughing)

BOTH:
Lions and tigers
and bears, oh, my.

Lions and tigers
and bears...

Uh-oh.

BRANDON:
Hey, munchkins, glad
you could make it.

We were about ready
to give up on you.

Well, we came
as soon as we could.

Yeah, we left this
great club to come here.

But we had to go
home and change first.

Let's go get started.

We already finished.

You finished without me?

Yeah, it wasn't so hard.

Especially when Andrea
went up the embankment

to set up the pulley.

Yeah, I never knew
you were so nimble.

Must be all my years
in the circus.

You were in the circus?

ANDREA:
No, I was kidding.

Though I did have a lot
of circus dreams.

Last fall when I kept having
to walk on that high wire.

Wasn't that when you
were waiting to see

if you got
accepted to Yale?

No, that was
right before I applied.

Are you still planning
on going, Andrea?

Yeah.

I won't be the first person
to take out a mortgage

on my future for a great
education...

even though I'll miss

going to California University
with the rest of you.

I'm not so sure that's
where I'm going myself.

You'd rather go
to Berkeley, huh?

I think I'll spend the
summer knocking around Europe

and then see what happens.

How cool, bro.

STEVE:
Very cool.

DAVID:
Yeah, I'll say.

What about you, Bren?
Have you decided yet?

Decided what?

Well, I'm not going to Europe,

but I'm not going to
California University either.

Gonna take some time off?

No, I'm going to go to the
University of Minnesota.

Are you kidding me?
When did you decide this?

Well, I've been
thinking about it

for a few weeks, but I really
only made up my mind today.

And then, during Andrea's
speech, I finally felt sure.

What did I say?

That even if we didn't
all end up together,

it would be all right.

The kind of friendships that
we have will last forever.

I sure will miss you.

Not more than me.

Not more than me,
guys, thank you.

Yeah, right. Well,
there are telephones.

And videophones.

Steve, you're gonna be
the first guy on your block

to have one.
I'm so proud of you!

Are you nodding off already?

No, I am not nodding off.

Bren, I can't believe
you're leaving?

KELLY:
I can't believe

you're leaving.

Why didn't you say anything?

I don't know...

I figure I'll start in
Norway, work my way south,

you know, maybe go to Paris,
jump over to London,

see some Shakespeare
country,

and just keep
going south

until I find
the nicest beach

in Greece.

You got a passport?

Why, do you want me to go?

No, I wanna borrow it.

Of course,
I want you to go.

Oh, I'd love to!

It's been a great ride
with you guys.

Hey, it's not over
yet, brother.

Aren't you tired?

No way.

Come on sleepyheads.

This is your wakeup call.

(chuckles)
What time is it?

Time to roll
outta here, let's go.

Where we going?

To get a better view
of our legacy.

Let's go, brother.
