It Takes Two Page #4

Really?

I made my money the old-fashioned way.

Pure dumb luck.

I doubt that.

I swear to God.

Twelve years ago, a cell phone

was something out of Star rreh.

But I thought it was pretty cool.

so I bought airspace.

Get out!

That's like money out of thin air!

You'll notice I don't carry one.

I hate them.

Excuse me.

Miss Kensington, boss.

She insists.

Excuse me. It's my--

Miss Kensington.

How you doing?

How am I doing?

Please, honey, look.

Do you have any idea

what your daughter has done?

-No, what?

-She spit--

Gum? In your hair?

Are you sure?

Am I sure?

Oh, my God! You should see it!

I'm certain it wasn't intentional.

Look, of course.

You've had a rough day.

Rough is a broken nail, darling.

What I've had is a train wreck!

Just try to calm down.

I'll speak to her.

I'm just going to go now.

Just one second.

One second, please.

What? Is there a woman

there with you?

Yes, there's sort of a woman here.

She's from the camp.

How delightful!

I'm in the middle of a crisis...

...and you're having a bachelor party!

I'm in a meeting. That's all.

It's just a meeting.

No, we're not going to have dinner.

There's nothing going to go on--

Please. I'll see you

at the end of the week.

Me too. Bye-bye.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry about that!

But she squeezed me so hard.

it just sort of popped out.

I don't think she likes me much.

She's been looking forward to

meeting you for months.

Do you know how much she loves kids?

No. Do you?

Well, you are the first kid

I've ever seen her with.

But I'm sure it's a bunch.

And you love her, right?

Like that ''Can't eat. can't sleep.

reach for the stars...

...over the fence. World Series''

kind of stuff?

ls that what the dictionary says?

You're marrying her

because Alyssa needs. I mean...

...I need a mother?

I think that's

enough questions for today.

Wait.

I only got one left.

Let's have it.

Who was that pretty woman

out on the patio?

The Roger Callaway?

On a white horse, no less.

So?

He comes riding up, saves my life.

He's probably worth billions.

Totally cute.

Oh, my God! He is so cute.

To top it all off...

...he's, honest to God, a nice guy.

I'm stupid enough

to think he's available.

-lsn't he?

-No.

ls too.

How would you know?

Was he wearing a ring?

Even if he was available.

he wouldn't be interested in me.

Don't put yourself down.

Guys like him like

girls with food names.

Cookie, Muffin...

...Candy.

They don't marry girls like me.

He did once.

ls this published somewhere?

Her name was Cathy.

She wasn't a food, but a teacher.

He's even more perfect

than I thought.

I'm cheating.

Give me one of those.

Give me that stick.

Vincenzo, do you believe in magic?

Like card tricks?

No, sparks between two people.

It happens when you least expect it.

Why do you ask?

No reason.

It's been so long since Cathy and....

I didn't think it'd happen again.

That Miss Kensington

is really something.

Well, actually...

...that's not who I meant.

I know.

You're my best man. You're supposed

to come up with words of wisdom now.

Why don't you go for a drive?

See where you end up.

Now, where's he going?

It's the home office.

The Butkises want Amanda.

The paperwork just went through.

Who the hell is this?

Diane Barrows, Since when does

your department okay an adoption...

...without the caseworker's report?

I know these people are nice.

Have you ever met those people?

These people collect kids.

They'll take anybody.

Where is Diane Barrows?

I think she's in the office.

Let me just run this by you

one more time.

Just hear me out one more time.

I know I don't make that much money.

And I know I'm a little bit single.

But I want to adopt Amanda.

Are you laughing at me?

He's laughing at me!

You stupid jerk!

What?

Oh, it's you.

ls this a bad time?

A bad time?

For a meeting?

No. I'm having a problem

with one of my kids.

Anything I can do?

You've already saved my life.

What can I do for you?

I want to apologize for yesterday.

It was very rude.

I shouldn't have taken that call.

I'd like to make it up.

Okay, then give me your car.

Perhaps we could discuss it

at a pizza joint I saw in town.

I'm sorry. I can't.

I understand.

Maybe some other time, then.

No, it's not like that.

I'm on duty today in the mess hall.

It's my kids' turn to serve.

Oh, I see.

If your heart's set on Italian.

you could join us.

We're having...

...macaroni and cheese.

And peach cobbler?

Oh, yeah, All you can eat.

Darling, Craig can meet

the preident on Sunday.

I need bridesmaids!

You must come.

Fabulous!

There's my other line.

Love you. Mean it. Ciao.

M.

Why do you keep bothering me

with numbers? It's my wedding.

Whatever it costs, just get it!

It's a cozy little spot!

When were you last here?

It must be 10 years!

Ten years?

Did you build the camp

and never come back?

No, it was my wife's idea.

She had a big heart.

Had?

She passed away when Alyssa was born.

Sorry.

I just never could come back.

Until now, that is.

Here you go!

Hey, Carmen. Where's Amanda?

I don't know.

One minute she's behind me....

Would you get her? I want to

introduce her to somebody.

I'm having the hardest time keeping

tabs on her. She keeps running off.

Tell me about it.

I got one just like her at home.

What are you doing?

I'm cleaning this window.

Look at it. It's filthy.

Diane wants to see you. Come on.

Hey, my hat!

Do something, Alyssa!

Here she comes.

My compliments to the chef.

Amanda, take that thing off.

Let her keep it on.

It might be the latest thing.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Did you just snort?

I suppose you think this is funny?

Well, maybe you'll get

a little chuckle out of this.

You wouldn't dare!

Food fight!

That was great!

I couldn't have done it better myself.

I almost had a heart attack.

I guess that's what they mean

by ''eat and run.''

We need doggie bags.

Oh, dear. Look at me.

I am covered in cobbler.

You look good in peach.

Leave it. I may still be hungry.

I can't believe you hit me

with the butter.

I didn't start it. You just talk

to that short-order cook of yours.

Oh yeah. Where is she, anyway?

Look at your head.

If you want to get cleaned up.

there's showers over there.

I've got a better idea.

Will you excuse me?

And maybe hold some of that?

Pardon me.

What's wrong with him?

Beats me.

I've never seen him act like this.

I think he's gone mental.

He's got a lot on his mind.

Don't you know

not to swim after you eat?

Oh, yeah, I forgot.

I got a cramp!

I can't swim!

No fair. I saved you.

It's too cold.

I'm not going in there.

Come on!

I don't want to save you right now.

All right, buster.

You better be worth it.

You're not funny.

Oh, my God!

Say...

...a guy could drown waiting for you.

Callaway, I'm going to kill you!

Bonzai!

Roger, I am going to kill you!

It's working.

Look at them.

Now that's more like it.

Roger, darling? Anyone home?

Miss Kensington! What a surprise.
