OF SENIOR PASTOR.

OH, YOU DO?

AND WHY DO YOU THINK

IT'S A MISTAKE, MRS. TOMPKINS?

NOW, NOW, DEAR,

I'M JUST-- I'M JUST LOOKING OU FOR YOUR BEST INTERESTS.

YOU'RE FAR TOO YOUNG

AND INEXPERIENCED...

WE DON'T HAVE

THE RESERVES:

FOR THREE MINISTERS.

THAT'S WHY CASEY HERE

IS THE PERFECT SOLUTION.

IT WOULD TAKE:

ABOUT A YEAR, IS THAT RIGHT,

TO FIND A NEW PASTOR?

MAYBE 18 MONTHS?

WELL, THAT'S REALLY

UP TO US, CASEY.

WE JUST NEED YOU TO HOLD

THE FORT TO THE END OF THE YEAR.

WE DON'T NEED

A REAL SENIOR MINISTER

FOR THIS INTERIM.

AND I'M SURE

YOU CAN FILL BOTH CHAIRS

UNTIL WE FIND ONE.

I DON'T THINK THAT--

[AHEM]

I'M SURE

CASEY WOULD BE DELIGHTED

TO DO AS WE ASK.

SHE KNOWS WE CAN'T GET ALONG

WITHOUT HER.

WELL, THAT'S

SETTLED, THEN.

CASEY, I'M GOING

TO HAVE TO ASK YOU

TO EXCUSE YOURSELF

SO WE CAN STAR TALKING ABOU THE SEARCH PROCESS.

OH.

BUT THANK YOU FOR COMING.

OKAY.

RIGHT.

WELL, IF THERE'S ANYTHING

I CAN DO:

TO HELP WITH THE SEARCH,

YOU'LL LET ME KNOW.

OH, CASEY,

WOULD YOU BE A DEAR

AND BREW US:

A FRESH POT OF COFFEE?

OH, AND SOME OF

THOSE LITTLE COOKIES

LEFT OVER FROM:

THE FELLOWSHIP MEETING.

DECAF OR REGULAR?

HELLO, MY NAME IS CASEY.

I'LL BE YOUR SERVER TODAY.

[CASEY]:
I CAN'T BELIEVE

I LET YOU TALK ME INTO THIS.

ARE YOU SURE THE MOVIE'S

ACTUALLY SOLD OU OR IS THIS JUST A PLOY

SO YOU CAN SHOW OFF

YOUR CHOIR-BOY PAST?

OH, COME, ON,

ADMIT IT,

MY VOCAL STYLINGS

ARE WAY MORE ENTERTAINING

THAN A COUPLE:

OF MUSCLE HEADS:

BLOWING EACH OTHER UP.

WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT.

[SINGING OFF-KEY]:

OH, SUSANNA

DON'T YOU CRY FOR ME

WHEN I COME TO ALABAMA

WITH A BANJO ON MY KNEE

[ANNOUNCER]:

LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE LADIES

AND WELCOME OUR NEXT PERFORMERS

TO THE STAGE.

I TOLD YOU:

TO GET YOUR OWN.

OH. COME ON, SHARE.

NO.

OH, THAT'S US.

YOU DIDN'T.

OF COURSE, I DID.

COME ON.

I CAN' BELIEVE YOU.

WHAT SONG:

DO YOU CHOOSE?

I REQUESTED:

ANYTHING BY BON JOVI.

[JAZZ NUMBER PLAYS]

OKAY.

'CAUSE I--

[SCATTING]

I.... AIN'T GOT NOBODY

NOBODY:

CARES FOR ME:

NOBODY:

CARES FOR ME:

I'M.... SO SAD

AND LONELY:

WHOA! OH, LONELY

OH, LONELY

SO LONELY...

NOBODY...

CARES FOR ME:

NOBODY CARES FOR ME...

[CASEY]:
DEAR LORD,

HOW COULD I HAVE KNOWN DAVID

FOR EIGHT YEARS:

AND NOT NOTICED HOW ADORABLE

AND HOT HE IS?

IT'S DAVID.

MAYBE IT IS DAVID.

[SCATTING]

WHAT'S UP?

YOU'VE BEEN ACTING STRANGE

FOR A WHILE.

YOU STILL OWME:

A MOVIE.

DONE. I'M KIND OF

IN A MOOD FOR ICE CREAM.

OH, I CAN'T,

I'M PREACHING

TOMORROW, REMEMBER?

OKAY, BUT NEXT SATURDAY

AFTER THE MOVIE,

WE'RE GOING TO GE ICE CREAM.

NEXT SATURDAY'S

VALENTINE'S DAY.

I'M BUSY.

WHAT, YOU GO A HOT DATE?

YEP.

ALL RIGHT, CASEY!

WAY TO GO!

SO, WHO'S THE LUCKY GUY?

NO ONE.

WOW. IT MUST BE PRETTY SERIOUS

IF YOU WON'T SPILL THE DETAILS.

I DON'T WANT TO JINX IT.

HEY, CASE, IT'S NOT ONE OF

YOUR PARISHIONERS, RIGHT?

NO! I'M NO POACHING SHEEP

FROM MY OWN FLOCK.

[CASEY]:

I'VE BROKEN A CARDINAL RULE--

THE ONE ABOUT MIXING FRIENDSHIP

WITH ROMANTIC FEELINGS.

I CAN NEVER LET HIM

KNOW HOW I FEEL:

AND RISK LOSING HIS FRIENDSHIP,

BUT, MOSTLY,

I'M AFRAID OF WHAT I FEL IN THERE TONIGHT.

[CASEY]:
SLOW DOWN.

I CAN'T BREATHE.

I'VE BEEN

WAITING ON THIS:

SINCE THE FIRST WEEK

OF DIV. SCHOOL.

I KNOW, RONNIE,

BUT IT'S DAVID!

YOU MEAN SMART, TALL,

FUNNY, KIND DAVID?

THE KIND OF MAN THA WE'D GIVE OUR EYETEETH FOR?

I MEAN, LOOK,

IF THAT ZING OF ATTRACTION

YOU FELT FOR HIM WAS REAL,

THEN YOU NEED TO TELL HIM.

I WILL. I WILL!

AFTER I GO OU ON THIS DATE

ON SATURDAY NIGHT.

OKAY, LET ME

GET THIS STRAIGHT.

YOU'RE TURNING

DOWN A DATE:

WITH A MAN:

YOU'RE ATTRACTED TO

TO GO OUT ON A DATE WITH

A MAN WHO DOESN'T EXIST?

YES! EXACTLY.

EXCEPT FOR DAVID DIDN' ASK ME ON A DATE.

HE TOOK ME FOR GRANTED,

ASSUMING THA I WOULDN'T BE BUSY

ON VALENTINE'S DAY.

GIRL, THAT'S YOUR FAULT.

NOT ONLY DID YOU

GIVE HIM THE LICENSE

TO TAKE YOU FOR GRANTED,

YOU PRINTED IT, SIGNED I AND LAMINATED IT.

YEAH. YOU'RE RIGHT.

BUT I CAN'T LET HIM

KNOW THAT I LIED.

I CAN'T SEEM

THAT PATHETIC.

WILL YOU HELP ME?

I HAVE TO FIND A DATE

FOR SATURDAY NIGHT.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

WHAT ABOUT JAMES?

NO.

OKAY, DO YOU WANT ME

TO ASK MY COUSIN

TO TAKE YOU OU FOR VALENTINE'S DAY?

YES.

I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE

NOTHING FOR HIM,

AND IF IT AIN'T TRUE LOVE,

IT AIN'T WORTH IT.

RONNIE, PLEASE.

I HAVE TO SAVE FACE.

YOUR FACE NEEDS TO FIND

SOMEONE ELSE TO SAVE I BESIDES MY COUSIN.

[CASEY]:
YOU KNOW WHAT,

I'M SORRY,

I SHOULDN'T HAVE ASKED THAT.

I'LL HAVE TO FIND SOMEONE ELSE.

MAYBE SOME OF THE BARISTAS

WILL KNOW SOMEONE I COULD DATE.

FINE. I'LL ASK MY COUSIN.

HE JUST BROKE UP

WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND

AND I KNOW:

HE HAS NOTHING TO DO.

PLUS, HE OWES ME.

OH, RONNIE! THANK YOU!

YOU'RE THE BEST.

YEAH, YEAH.

I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW.

[FRIENDLY KNOCKING ON DOOR]

-HEY.

ANY MINUTE.

SO ARE YOU RUNNING BEHIND?

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING,

SO YOU'RE NOT READY?

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU LOOK FINE TO ME.

DO I LOOK FINE,

OR DO I LOOK NOT READY?

WHICH ONE IS IT?

UH, YOU LOOK...

TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST,

KIND OF WEIRD.

I LOOK WEIRD?

YEAH. YOU'RE ALL...

SEXY AND STUFF.

OH.

WOULD IT AMAZE YOU, DAVID,

TO DISCOVER THAT SOME MEN

ACTUALLY FIND ME

ALL "SEXY AND STUFF"?

DON'T ANSWER THAT.

IT WILL BE EASIER.

HI.

OH, WOW. YOU LOOK GORGEOUS.

[CASEY]:
OH, THANK YOU.

ON SECOND THOUGHT,

OH. OKAY.

THE LEAK ORIGINATED

ABOVE THE CEILING.
