lions gate entertainment.

Man:
Yes. His time has come.

Now remember

what you've been taught.

Bring him home with love.

Have a safe journey, my child.

Woman:
Arrivederci.

Second woman:

Bonne chance, ma belle.

Man:
Allons.

Second man:
Good luck, kid.

Woman:
Sayonara.

Woman:
Albert,

just wait a minute.

I think I broke my shoe.

Albert:
Why are you

always stalling?

Come on. Let's move it.

Hup, 2, 3.

Oh...

Just a little. Thank you.

Now, what it comes down to

grace, is basics.

If your stepson

applies himself,

he can climb

that success ladder

just as quickly as I did.

See, there is no stopping

a man who is determined.

Isn't that right, Ben?

Oh, right. Ed was so right.

Man:
Wow.

Woman:
Whoo! Hi there, Patty.

Hi.

Oh, Patty, Patty,

oh, I'm so happy for

you and... I'm sorry.

Jim. Oh, yes. Jim.

Have you set the date yet?

Yes. Look at this girl.

Such a face.

I feel horrible

about this foul weather

ruining your engagement party.

Oh, well, it just brings us all

closer together,

don't you think?

Will you excuse me?

I seem to have lost my fiance.

Oh, Patty, get a good

hold on that one.

He's quite a catch.

Yes. I'd be afraid someone

would steal him away.

Like to see them try.

Woman:
Ah!

Hi. Congratulations.

Oh, thank you.

From what my daughter tells me,

your son has the makings

of a great salesman.

Now, that is long-term

security for the boy,

not this musician stuff.

Ah, here she comes,

daddy's little star.

Oh, have I showed you the

artwork for our new campaign?

Wait till you see this.

This is just something.

Oh, look at her.

Ohh... Ohh...

Here. Hold this up, Ben,

so everybody can see

my little, ethereal beauty.

So damn proud.

First, she becomes the face

for our new cosmetic line,

and then my one and my only one

gonna become a bride.

Mm.

Boy better treat

my little princess right, Ben...

Or else.

It's my little Patty cat here.

Ok. Enough.

Have you seen Jim?

I can't seem

to find him anywhere.

Sure. Last time I saw him,

old Al cirimele

was chewing his ear off

in the kitchen.

All is the best sales rep

we've got,

and Jim is gonna be

on his team.

Will you all excuse me, please?

Hello, Patricia.

Mr. Winston, sir.

Aldridge, what

are you doing here?

I know this isn't the time

to talk business, sir,

but gleason said

you did want to know

the marketing results of

the ethereal beauty line.

Oh, yes. I certainly do.

Well...

Pretty bad...

Sir.

Honey...

In case no one told you,

the party has moved inside

due to the bad weather.

That's funny.

Nobody said a word to me.

Think I should be offended?

This is embarrassing.

Everybody is gonna think

that I'm marrying a man

who doesn't have enough sense

to come in out of the rain.

Maybe everybody doesn't

know what they're missing.

This is called

a romantic interlude.

Come out and interlude with me?

Um...

You're making me mad,

and I'm going in.

No. Wait!

Sanders on first base.

Looks like he's

going for second,

and there he goes!

Sanders has stolen

second base...

And Sanders looks like he's

gonna go for third, but wait.

The play is to third base.

It looks bad for Sanders.

It's a pickle.

He's caught between

second and third base.

There's the base,

there's the toss,

and Sanders is safe at third.

You coming in or not?

Is Sanders coming in or not?

That seems to be

the question of the evening.

There's the pitch.

It's a perfect bunt

down the first-base line.

His fans are cheering him in.

"Go! Go! Go!"

They're going crazy.

They're on their feet.

They're at the window.

Uh!

Heh heh. Hi.

We'll be in in one second, ok?

I hope you have some way

of explaining this to them

because I don't.

We could tell them I start

spring training tomorrow.

No. Hmm...

You ok? You still

have that headache.

No. No. I'm fine.

Come on, slugger.

I'll dry you off and

get you some more aspirin,

but, Jim... I know. I know.

I know. What?

No more fun tonight.

Come on, honey.

Aah!

All right. Listen up, you scum.

Shut off that crap!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Ha! Smooth move, man.

All right. You've got

something we want.

If we get it, nobody gets hurt.

Ed:
What the hell is this?

You want a free demonstration?

All right. We want a hostage.

Take that guy. Get him.

Woman:
Oh, dear God.

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

Patty:
Aah! All right. Mmph!

Man:
Shut up, or I'll

grease your friends here.

Mmph! Mmph! Come on.

Come here.

You want to see

your friend alive again,

cooperate when we call.

Ben, do something.

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt.

I change my mind. Catch!

Pin!

Let's get the hell out of here.

What'd you do? Don't ask.

Just go. Go, go!

Aah! Aah!

Ed:
It's all right. It's all right.

Don't panic.

I'll get it.

It's probably them.

Yes?

Man:
Good evening, sir.

Can you tell me what sound

a rubber grenade makes?

Sorry. Time's up.

The correct answer is pbbt!

Ow! Ha ha ha! Whoo!

Ooh! Ha ha ha!

Come on, Georgie. Go, man.

Beautiful.

Jerks! Hey!

This is the worst thing

you ever done, George.

Worst? Why, I oughta...

For a nonprofit scam,

this was all-time.

All-time?

Do you have any idea

what you've done?

He's hot. He's hot. Cool him off.

Cool him off.

Fire!

Just wait till you

see the real party

we have going

back at casa hymie.

No. No. Yes.

Not at my place,

not the party ninjas.

It's your bachelor party.

Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

Come on, Sanders.

How's about a little

appreciation up here?

I'll give you some

appreciation, George.

Hey! Hey!

Aah!

Hmm...

Ohh...

Somebody! Anybody! Help!

Blanket.

Uh-huh.

Miss?

Miss? Hey, huh?

Oh, come on.

A phone. Phone. Phone.

Where's the phone?

911, 911, 911.

Great.

Wow.

Hi.

Oh. I'm sorry. I...

I didn't mean to be too-

can I get you something to...

how about something

for your... oh, boy.

Uh, maybe I should...

oh! Aah!

Ohh...

Ohh...

Oh, it's broken.

Don't worry.

We'll get somebody

to look at it.

I promise. I'll take

care of everything.

I'll just call a doctor or a...

Veterinarian.

Oh, no, no. No. I'm sorry.

I mean, I'm... Married.

Um, not married.

I'm engaged, which is...

you know, it's, uh,

just as bad.

I mean, I'm dreaming.

I mean, I must be dreaming,

and if I'm dreaming,

then there's nothing to

feel guilty about, right?

So, go ahead.

Knock yourself out.

Coming. Oh!

I don't believe this.

I know. I know. I overslept.

Hope you had pleasant dreams.

Well, as a matter of fact...

Jim, this isn't funny.

Daddy is furious

over last night.

Honey, I thought I explained

everything when I called.

Yeah. You also said

that you would be over

first thing in the morning

with an apology for him.

You're absolutely right.

I'm sorry. Sorry.

All right. Well, I should at least

call him and tell him that you...

uh, no, no, no.

Actually, the place

is a little messy

from last night.

Actually, more than a bit.

I don't think

you want to see this.

Ok. All right.

So, we'll see you

in half an hour.

Ok. Ok, and, Jim,

please, don't be late.
