I'm sorry about that. The assassination was horrifying.

Yes, it was.

And now you're in New York, working for the Organization for International Relief.

You've been well briefed?

I make it a habit to look at Mother's Seating Plan and research my dinner partner in case I'm going to move the place guards around.

Well, I hope I survive the cut.

Absolutely.

I also happen to know that you are very bright and that so far you've resisted the lore of Wall Street and you've never been married. Why not?

I haven't fallen in love.

I don't believe it.

You're right. It's a lie.

Actually, all the women I meet are too smart or too young.

What have you been doing?

I graduate from Vassar in June, major in economics.

Unlike you, I'm fascinated by Wall Street.

And I'm trying to persuade my father to take me on it the firm.

Don't you want to be married?

Oh, you sound just like Daddy.

Marriage is not the only thing I intend to do with my life.

It's possible you need to have your consciousness raised if you're not just Mr. Hill.

Hey, I've read the feminine mystique. I've even read Simone de Beauvoir.

Ooh, big points.

Could you recommend them to Daddy, please?

I'll tell you what, I'll hook up with a reading.

That's rather interesting.

I like this.

Hi, Jody. Hi, hon.

Oh, Crystal.

I got some news for you. Baba Seet.

I got a friend, Stan Forrest, who runs Bay City Record Company.

I asked him to come listen to you. He did.

He wants you to cut a single to follow me.

Larry? Oh, Larry? Thank you so much.

Crystal, this is just the beginning.

Thank you, Larry. Thanks for everything.

You're listening to San Francisco's most requested hit.

This week's pick to click, Crystal Liots, follow me.

I'll take my hand and I will fall into you.

Southampton is good.

I don't want to go back to New York.

Come out for a month this summer.

I have a job, remember.

So does my father and he manages to come out two months every year?

I'm not in your father's shoes.

Oh, but you could be so easily.

I'm beginning to think you don't want very much for yourself.

Untrue. Untrue. I want everything.

Good work to do.

Someone to love for the rest of my life, children.

Anyone can have those things.

People who have that are the lucky ones.

What do you want?

Achievement and recognition.

Lots of money and power.

I won't settle for mediocrity.

You won't have to.

I have the impression that you get what you want.

Hm. Every time.

Do you realize what extraordinary things we can do together?

Ah!

I have to perfect it.

Oh, leave something.

She can come for it next weekend.

Thank you.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here next weekend.

Thank you.

I love you.

I met what I said on the lawn.

I think we'd be a great team.

Elizabeth, I'm the one who's supposed to propose when I do it, you'll know it.

I know.

Count on it.

Hey, Spencer.

Hi.

Welcome back.

Thank you.

I thought you'd never get here.

I'm so glad to see you.

You must be freezing.

On the contrary.

I was thinking of you.

Ooh.

That was a long week.

I felt like a year.

I'm digging your wet.

I better get you out of this suit, huh?

I can't wait.

You're in love with me, Spencer.

You are.

What does it mean to you?

What we have right here, wonderful love, Megan.

Understanding, fine.

The whole world of opportunity helped me out to it.

I'll be alright.

I know I am.

You'd be a great person if you could just get a little self-care.

Get a little self-confidence.

Oh.

My self-confidence is one of the things you like about me.

You're right again.

Oh, this is so good.

Our families know it.

Everybody knows it.

We can plate each other.

Each one makes the other more.

Don't lose me.

Don't let me go.

Did you know when I did it?

I just want to talk.

Daddy, Spencer's just asked me to marry him.

Oh, my stomach!

We have your blessing.

Certainly I haven't happened sometime.

It's a very, very valuable news.

When?

Oh, as soon as possible.

Oh, my dear, I must tell you, I had the most wonderful experience last week.

I met the wonderful group of fighting court agents.

My name is Bonnie and she has a wonderful staff.

I'm so happy. I think I've waited for this my whole life.

That looks like a campaign headquarters in here.

What do you see what mother has lined up for the candidate in San Francisco?

San Francisco.

Half the families in San Francisco.

Darling, we plan four days with my sister and Elizabeth's cousins,

and then home to New York for the parties here.

And of course, there's rehearsal there.

You must take this.

I know it's grueling, but you're marrying into a bike with family.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Beautiful evening.

Good to meet you.

And I'll see you the day after tomorrow in New York.

So wedding rehearsal?

Absolutely.

Go on and walk around.

Yes, back to you.

Trust me.

Oh, wow.

I didn't want to do that.

All right, Jen.

Where do we go for night caps in San Francisco?

Some place fun and informal, please.

I have a perfect place.

Everybody depend on me.

I'll thank you at a good night.

All right.

Places that I'm going to choose.

Places where I've been.

To have you here beside me.

Do you know that girl?

Uh, no.

No.

Maybe look at me that way.

We will be at home.

Follow me where I go.

What I do and who I know.

Make it part of you to be a part of me.

Follow me up and down.

All the way and all around.

Take my hand and I will follow too.

I guess I'll see you for breakfast.

Yeah.

All right.

All right.

Oh, I'm so tired, Kristen.

I'm going to go home, take myself a nice, hot bath,

and go to sleep.

Okay.

You do that.

Crystal?

I'll see you tomorrow.

Okay.

I heard you sing earlier.

You were wonderful.

Thank you.

When did you get to San Francisco?

Two years ago.

My father passed away.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I think about you all the time.

I think about you too.

Really?

Yes.

I thought you'd forgotten me by now.

How could I?

I wear this all the time.

Are you happy?

Yeah, I am now.

When my dad died, it changed a lot of things for me.

Your mother saw the ranch?

No.

Tom runs it for her.

How's your little brother?

Jared was killed.

My God.

When?

What happened?

I'd really rather not think about it right now.

All this time I just imagined you happy on the ranch.

I used to dream about you.

Pretended that if you'd been there, things would have been different.

Crystal, we're locking up.

What?

I'll walk you out.

I want to tell you something.

What do I?

You go first.

When I think of you, it's always like a promise of what my life could be like.

If somehow someone like you were in it.

I love you.

Do you think that's possible?

I hope so.

You've been from the beginning a kind of truth that I measure other people by.

I know that doesn't make any sense, but that's the way it is.

Seeing you tonight has made me feel that maybe I made some choices that are wrong.

What do you mean?

My life has changed a lot, too, since the last time we saw each other.

I've got a lot of people depending on me.

I've made a lot of commitments.

Personal commitments to work.

I have some serious things to straighten out when I go back to New York.

I'm going to come back here.

You look so sad.

I'm just scared.

What?

That you won't come back.

I will.

I love you, too, Crystal.

God, I loved you the first time I saw you.

It seemed so unreal, so...impossible.

Nothing's impossible.

You're right.

That's right, I love you.

I love you.

Oh, you're beautiful.

Oh...

Oh, you're beautiful.

Oh, you're beautiful.

I love you.

I love you too.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I don't want to let you go.

Come in with me.

No. You have no idea how much I want to do, Dad. It's not fair. Not yet.

When do you go to New York?

Want one?

Will you call me? Of course.

Goodbye, Crystal.

No. Good night.

Good night.

You can't slow down a little. We do have two hours before the flight.

You didn't get much sleep last night. I was missing you, and I called your room at one.

I was walking. Thinking.

About this?

Hey.

I thought you liked erotic overtures. Something wrong?

I can't marry you.

Would you like to tell me why?

I could try.

If it hurt you unnecessarily, you still wouldn't understand. The bottom line is we just wouldn't be happy.

That's ridiculous.

I never thought you'd be a coward.

Coward?

You've got cold feet. You're afraid to face it and write it out.

No, Elizabeth.

Yes, Spencer. Everyone gets scared. Go out with your friends. Get drunk. Get it out of your system.

And let's pretend we never had this conversation.

You're even crazier than I am.

I've been telling you all along, we are the perfect man.

No, we're not. I am not what you want. I never will be.

I don't give a damn about money or power or achievement. In the end, you'd never forgive me for that.

What happened last night?

Go get absolution someplace else. It's bare me at the crease. The concierge. I'm not interested.

Try and get interested in this.

There seems to be a little bit of a disparity between what you and I want out of life.

Materially, you want much more than I ever will.

I will settle very happily for the violins, and I want the damn thunderbolts.

It doesn't exactly constitute a marriage made in heaven.

There's no such thing. Spencer.

So, grow up darling, and appreciate what you have here.

You're much crazier than I am.

Just more sure that this is a very good thing.

You're jet lag son. Take a couple of long falls of South Anthony.

I ran into an old friend in San Francisco last weekend.

A woman? Yes. I haven't seen her in years.

I don't know how I'm going to explain this.

You wound up in bed with her.

I wound up in love with her.

Well, sit in the circumstances. That could present a problem.

Rationally. I know it's impossible. Emotionally.

I know that this is the girl I'm supposed to spend the rest of my life with.

I told Elizabeth I can't marry her.

And what did she say to that?

She said nonsense. I have a classic case of cold feet.

She's probably right.

Tell me, who is this person?

She's a 19-year-old rancher's daughter from the Alexander Valley.

She sings in a nightclub in San Francisco.

Are you a kitty? No.

Come on, Spencer.

Elizabeth is a cultured practical young woman who loves and understands you.

She says everything's off of you and you, her.

Your mother and I think you've made a terrific choice.

But Dad, let's steal a reality here.

Now, you made a right decision and you can do the right thing.

Now, my advice is we play the hell on this back nine-hand.

We retire the bar. What are you saying?

Crystal, it's for you.

Saying God called yesterday.

Thanks.

Hello?

Crystal, it's Spencer.

Congratulations.

I just saw your wedding announcement in the paper.

I'm sorry. I tried to call you yesterday, but...

I know. Pearl told me.

Look, it's all right. You don't know me. Anything.

Crystal, stop. Just listen a minute.

I meant it when I said I love you.

I love you.

I left the other night and I told Elizabeth I couldn't marry her.

Well, I guess you both decided that you didn't mean it.

Well, I already made the commitment. It was impossible not to marry her.

Crystal, no one will ever mean to me what you do.

It had gone too far. I couldn't stop it.

Spencer, I don't want you to think about that anymore, okay?

I'm sure your wife is a wonderful person.

And I hope that you'll be very happy.

And I hope that you'll be very happy.

For what I want for you.

It's what I've always wanted for you.

I hope the same for you.

And, uh...

If there's ever anything I can do for you, I hope, uh...

You'll tell me.

I'll tell you anything else, okay, Spencer?

Don't call me.

It's alright me anymore.

Crystal.

Goodbye.

Massive destruction of power lines and communication systems limit reports

that sources familiar with this remote-regent fear

that a quarter million people have been left homeless without food or...

Hey, you're going early.

Praise and applause.

I just landed a multi-million dollar account this afternoon.

And even daddy was impressed.

Congratulations. What's the account?

You mean who?

Michael Wall.

Oh, Elizabeth.

Oh, what's your...

The science of fact that he promoted the hell out of the war.

The man minted money on defolions used in Vietnam.

Well, you're just going to have to put your political convictions aside this holiday weekend

because I accepted an invitation for us both to his place in Aspen.

Oh, I can't be there.

Nobody talking about it.

Radio report, you just turned off.

It's a 7.9 earthquake on the China-Burma border.

I mean, talking about 20,000 people dead.

I mean, with rain and flooding, that number could easily double.

It was a major disaster.

That's horrible.

What does that have to do with us?

Well, they've appealed for help. They're going to let us in.

Do you want a drink?

I'm head of the relief mission.

China, can't you get out of it, Spencer? Can't they get somebody else?

I don't want them to get somebody else.

I told you when I took this job, I could be called away at any time.

We've only been married eight months.

Elizabeth, I can't turn my back on this situation and live with myself.

When do you leave?

I fly out tomorrow morning. We're gathering supplies and personnel in San Francisco.

I've been walking around for an hour trying to figure out if this is a bad idea or not.

I just knew I had to see you again.

Where's your wife, Spencer?

In New York.

I'm on my way to China to head an earthquake.
