I'm gonna check your pulse.

Just take it easy.

That was quite a fall.

Happy birthday, Nickie.

What is this?

It's your birthday present.

I had to do something. You

were becoming such an a**hole.

Ladies and gentlemen. My

brother, Nicholas Van Orton.

Amazing. I just wanted

to tell you. Great job.

This was the best ever.

Thank God you jumped.

Because if you didn't,

I was supposed

to throw you off.

Thanks.

We have to head home. We

just wanted to say goodbye.

Rachel.

Sweet dreams.

Thanks, Mel, for coming. I'm

sorry about your car. I...

I think I left it at the zoo.

No problem.

Happy birthday, Nicholas.

I'll call you.

I really will.

Nicholas, I haven't a clue

what this is all about.

Your taste in champagne

is excellent as always.

It was a great entrance.

Yes, and I want you to know that

what happened on Sunday was...

Oh, no, no, please.

I've never been happier

in my whole life.

I thank you.

And my wife thanks you.

Thank you for coming.

Thank you, Sam.

What's this?

This is

the bill.

The bill?

Keep the pen.

Thank you, both.

You wanna split it?

Oh, God, yes, please.

I'll take you up on that.

Oh, my God.

Thank you, Connie.

What happened to that

waitress?

What was her name, uh...

Christine?

She said something

about catching a plane.

I just saw her out front

trying to hail a cab.

Christine?

I, um...

I didn't get a chance

to say goodbye.

Thank you. I...

You know, I never did

ask you your name, did I?

No.

It's

Claire.

So you catching a plane or...

Yeah, we have a gig starting

next week in Australia, so...

Gonna shear some more sheep.

Just a walk-on this time.

Well, when you get back,

maybe, you know,

we could have some dinner.

You don't know

anything about me.

No, I don't.

So you tell me.

Well, what...

Where you're from?

Originally,

Oklahoma.

Colorado?

I've been doing this

for way too long.

You know,

would you like

to have coffee with me

at the airport?
