Excuse me.

My grandmother throws

better than you.

Sprechen sie English, punk?

Yeah, that's what l thought.

Hey, where are you guys going?

Hey, watch it.

Hey, hey, hey.

Look who that is.

-No. No way.

-lt's Anna Foster.

-lt's Anna Foster, guys.

-Hey.

-No. No, l'm not Anna, okay?

-Where you going?

-Come on, Anna. Come on, precious.

-Excuse me. You've got the wrong person.

You're a bit far from the White House.

-What you doing here?

-l need to go.

-How about a date, babe?

-Don't touch me!

-Wanna party? You're far from home.

-Leave me alone. Just stop!

-Come on, Anna.

-Good God.

-Hey, that's enough. Let's go.

-Come on. Get out of my way. Who're you?

-Anna, let me help you get out of here.

-Thank you so much.

Hey, you want some real fun?

Come with us, sexy.

-Get away from me.

-Come with us. She's a princess.

Anna, it's okay.

You're safe.

-You all right?

-Come on, Anna. Let's go home.

Together we've been able to move

this humanitarian effort forward.

This has taken the cooperation

of all our allies.

But we are still confident

that these programs will benefit....

How's your heart?

lt's...

...a little bit broken.

Oh, Mom.

Something about a college campus.

lsn't there, Morales? You know?

-What do you mean?

-l mean, you know, the falling leaves...

...the promise of youth,

the smell of curricula.

l'm thinking we probably

gotta get new partners.

-l'm thinking l'm okay with that.

-Yeah?

-That so?

-Yeah.

-As long as your partner's an old fat guy.

-l love old fat guys.

-You do too. You do.

-l do.

-What?

-You're so silly.

You think?

You guys are in love, huh?

-Yeah, l guess so.

-lt's amazing. l'm at this great school...

...and there's not one course on love.

You can't learn about love in a classroom.

The dorms, maybe.

What? You can't learn about it

in a classroom.

Love is not always that easy, Anna.

Nothing worth getting ever is.

Have you tried to get chili fries

on this campus?

They sell chili. Oh, yes, and they sell the

fries. But they cannot put the two together.

You got a building

with engineering students...

-...but they--

-Just kiss me.

Okay.

Anna. Welcome home.

-Thank you. Happy holidays.

-Thanks. And you.

Hey, Phil. ls he busy?

Not for you.

-New shades?

-Yeah.

-Nice. Hey, Harper. New suit?

-No.

Hey, Buddy! Hi, Buddy.

How have you been? Hey.

-Hey, sweetie.

-Hey, Daddy.

You look....

You look collegiate.

Thanks.

-How's school?

-lt's good. Yeah.

-Good. Am l in any textbooks yet?

-No, not yet.

l hope you're taking some time

to have some fun.

-You do?

-Yeah.

Since when?

-Anna.

-No, Dad. You know what?

l know why you were so protective.

You didn't want me to get hurt...

...and you were right. l needed protection

because people can't be trusted.

l have learned my lesson.

l didn't want you to learn that lesson.

Too late.

God.

l love this house at Christmas.

We miss you around here, Anna.

So have you given any more thought

to that exchange study program at Oxford?

No, not really. Why?

Just always thought

it was a great opportunity.

Yeah, l guess.

Okay, well, l'll leave you to it

and l will see you at dinner.

-Do l smell cigar smoke? Dad.

-No.

-Come on.

-l don't think so.

-That's the story you're sticking with?

-Don't tell your mother.

You remember Agent Calder?

Ben.

-Dad.

-He's not an agent anymore. He quit.

-Really?

-Yeah, he's living in London now.

Maybe he found something

he's more passionate about.

Just a theory.

Yeah.

Thought you'd wanna know.

Okay.

Charlie, kill dimmer four and light one.

Yeah.

Hey, did you see who just walked in?

Have you seen who just walked in?

That's the president's daughter.

There's Anna Foster.

What are you doing here?

l'm a big Puccini groupie.

l'm studying for a semester at Oxford.

l came to find you.

-You did?

-Yeah.

l'm making the big gesture.

How did you know l was here?

l have connections.

-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah.

-So you got a little thing for me, huh?

-No.

Big thing.

-lf l kiss you, do you think they'll shoot me?

-No.

But l will if you don't.

-Please, can you help me get out of here?

-Yeah, why not?
