Making Mr. Right Page #7

OW!

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

DONALD!

AAH!

AAH!

[FEEDBACK]

I'LL GET YOU!

AAH!

OH!

AAH!

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WHOA!

AAH!

OH!

OH! OH!

ULYSSES!

OH, MY GOD!

OH, GOD!

ULYSSES!

IS HE DEAD?

OH, GOD!

OH, GOD!

OH! OH! OH!

MOVE!

CAN YOU FIX HIM?

OOH!

OOH!

[BEEP BEEP BEEP]

ALTHOUGH SOME OF THE STORIES

ARE SLIGHTLY EXAGGERATED,

THERE'S NO DOUB THAT ULYSSES' POPULARITY

IS SPREADING:

ACROSS THE COUNTRY

FROM MIAMI TO SEATTLE.

WE'LL TAKE A CLOSER LOOK

AT SOME:

OF THE REASONS WHY.

COMING UP AT 11:
00

AFTER NEW JERSEY.

STAY TUNED.

TRISH, WHAT'S

WRONG WITH ME?

LOOK, YOU'RE HAVING

A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN.

I HAVE THOSE:

ALL THE TIME.

JUST BECAUSE EVERYTHING

OF VALUE IN YOUR LIFE

HAS BEEN DESTROYED,

SO WHAT?

THERE'S STILL FOOD.

NEW JERSEY CONTINUES.

OH, WHY ARE YOU WATCHING

THIS IDIOTIC SHOW?

BECAUSE DON GETS

PUNCHED:

AT LEAS ONCE EVERY EPISODE,

AND I LIKE:

WATCHING THAT.

ADMIT IT, TRISH.

YOU STILL LOVE THE JERK.

AFTER WHAT HE DID

AT THE WEDDING,

YOU MUST BE JOKING.

NO! PLEASE.

I THOUGHT HE WAS

HAVING AN AFFAIR

WITH A TALL GORGEOUS BLONDE.

OH, HE ALWAYS

HAS TIME:

FOR A LITTLE:

SOMETHING EXTRA.

OH!

NO, MARISSA.

NO!

YOU SEE,

ISN'T THIS FUN?

YEAH, HE IS

KIND OF CUTE:

WHEN HE BEGS.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE

THE ONLY ONE I LOVE.

YOU COULDN' LIVE WITHOUT ME.

KILL HIM.

WHY?

BECAUSE YOU'RE WEAK.

[GUNSHOT]

AAH!

OH, MY GOD!

SHE'S KILLING HIM!

DON'T WORRY,

NOBODY EVER DIES

ON THESE SHOWS.

[PANTING]

HE'S DEAD!

UNLESS THEY'RE CANCELING

HIS CONTRACT.

OHH!

DEADER THAN A DOOR NAIL.

OH, NO! IT'S GO TO BE A MISTAKE!

HE'S SUPPOSED

TO BE A REGULAR!

10 YEARS AS

A STARVING ACTOR.

THEY CAN'T KILL HIM

AFTER 12 EPISODES!

IT'S NOT FAIR!

TRISH, IT'S NO YOUR PROBLEM ANYMORE.

HE MUST BE DEVASTATED.

WHY DIDN'T HE CALL ME?

TRISH, THINK A MINUTE!

THINK HOW HE TREATED YOU.

LISTEN, DONALD

IS NOT PERFECT,

I'M NOT PERFECT,

NEITHER IS STEVEN

NEITHER ARE YOU!

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

LOOK...

I DON'T KNOW!

MAYBE YOU SHOULD

GO BACK WITH STEVE.

LOOK, HE'S HANDSOME

AND HE'S FUNNY...

WELL, MAYBE HE'S NO ALL THAT FUNNY,

BUT HE HAS:

AN INTERESTING JOB,

AND HE EARNS HIS KEEP.

LOOK, I DON'T EVEN

LIKE HIM THAT MUCH,

BUT IT'S BETTER

THAN NOTHING.

I'LL JUST GO CALL

FROM THE OTHER ROOM.

COME ON, SNOWBALL.

[RUFF RUFF]

ULYSSES, YOU'RE NO CONCENTRATING. WHAT'S WRONG?

I DON'T KNOW. I KEEP

THINKING ABOUT FRANKIE.

I MISS HER, JEFF.

I THINK I'M IN LOVE.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

YOU WERE NEVER:

PROGRAMMED:

TO BE IN LOVE,

THEREFORE, YOU

CAN'T BE IN LOVE.

ULYSSES, I WON' ALLOW YOU TO SCREW UP

10 YEARS OF RESEARCH

AND HARD WORK:

BECAUSE YOU'RE MOONING

OVER SOME FEMALE.

I'M JUST NOT THAT INTERESTED

IN SPACE ANYMORE, JEFF.

DON'T SAY THAT!

PLEASE!

THIS HAS BEEN:

A DREAM OF MINE:

EVER SINCE:

I WAS A LITTLE BOY,

AND YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE

IT COME TRUE FOR ME.

ULYSSES, YOU HAVE

A GREAT FUTURE IN SPACE.

YOU'LL GO DOWN

IN THE HISTORY BOOKS.

YOU'RE TO BE ENVIED.

I DON'T WANT TO

BE ENVIED.

I WANT TO BE LOVED.

JEFF, I LOVE FRANKIE.

SHE IS A PERSON,

AND YOU ARE AN ANDROID!

WHAT HAPPENED:

BETWEEN YOU:

WAS RIDICULOUS!

RIDICULOUS,

AND SHE KNOWS IT.

SHE THOUGHT I WAS RIDICULOUS?

YES, ULYSSES.

I PROMISE YOU:

ONCE YOU'RE UP THERE

YOU'LL FEEL COMPLETELY

DIFFERENT,

BECAUSE WHAT YOU'LL

BE DOING IS TRULY

THE MOST EXCITING

THING IN THE WORLD.

GOOD MORNING, SOUTH FLORIDA!

WHAT DO YOU SAY, GUYS?

YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY

WITH THE BEARMAN THIS MORNING.

IT IS 7:
20.

IT IS GOING TO BE SUNNY

AND WARM AGAIN TODAY

IN SOUTH FLORIDA.

GREAT DAY TO GO OUT TO THE

BEACHES AND WORK ON YOUR TAN.

LET'S TALK A LITTLE BI ABOUT ULYSSES.

WE'VE HEARD ABOUT HIM

A LOT LATELY.

WHAT DO YOU THINK

OF ULYSSES?

WHY DON'T YOU CALL ME NOW?

ALL THE LINES ARE OPEN

IN DADE, BROWARD

AND THE PALM BEACHES,

BUT FIRST, COMING UP, A SONG

ULYSSES MIGHT LIKE,

PINK FLOYD'S

WELCOME TO THE MACHINE.

97 GTR.

THE BEST ROCK 'N' ROLL

VARIETY.

[HONKING]

[WHISTLE]

MY GOSH!

SNAZZY CAR!

SURE IS A WELCOME RELIEF

FROM THAT OLD WRECK

OF YOURS.

HI, STEVE.

OW!

YOU KNOW,

I'M REALLY GLAD

YOU CALLED.

IT WAS, UM...

A NICE SURPRISE.

YOU KNOW HOW MUCH

I WANTED TO GO:

TO THIS:

PRESS CONFERENCE

AND YOU LET ME:

TAG ALONG:

AND I REALLY:

APPRECIATE THAT.

WELL, AS A FRIEND

OF MINE SAID,

"ANY WOMAN IN MIAMI

WOULD GIVE UP:

A MONTH OF GOOD SEX

JUST TO SEE THIS BLASTOFF."

BUT I KNOW ONE GAL

WHO WON'T HAVE TO.

FRANKIE, HOW'S MY--

HOW'S MY HAIR LOOK?

UM...

IS IT OK?

IT'S FINE.

SURE?

STEVE.

OH, ALAN,

GOOD TO SEE YOU.

I HEARD:

ABOUT YOUR HAND.

THE ONLY THING AFFECTED

IS MY GOLF GAME.

STEVE, CAN YOU

EXCUSE ME:

FOR A MINUTE?

ALL RIGHT. YEAH.

YOU REMEMBER GUY,

DON'T YOU?

GUY, GOOD

TO SEE YOU.

JEFF.

YOU DON'T HAVE

ANY BUSINESS BEING HERE.

LOOK, JEFF,

I'M REALLY SORRY

ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

BUT I'M GLAD HE'S FIXED

AND EVERYTHING'S OK.

WHO SAID HE WAS OK?

THE PAPERS,

THE TELEVISION.

WELL, HE ISN'T.

HE DOESN'T WORK THE WAY

HE WAS PROGRAMMED TO.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

YOU DON'T EVEN REALIZE

THE DAMAGE YOU'VE DONE, DO YOU?

I HAVE SPENT YEARS

DEVELOPING ULYSSES

SO HE COULD FUNCTION

IN SPACE ALONE.

AND NOW, IN LESS THAN

ONE MONTH'S TIME,

YOU HAVE RUINED HIM.

TELL ME THIS--

HOW'S HE SUPPOSED TO

SURVIVE OUT THERE NOW

WHEN ALL HE THINKS

ABOUT IS YOU?

READY, HON?

WE ARE PLEASED YOU COULD ALL

BE HERE TODAY:

TO MEET THE ULYSSES ANDROID.

THE AWESOME DISTANCES INVOLVED

IN THE EXPLORATION OF DEEP SPACE

HAVE ALWAYS POSED

A SERIOUS DILEMMA.

HOW COULD A MAN:

WITHSTAND THE TERRIBLE ISOLATION

AND CONFINEMENT?

HOW COULD A MACHINE BE

OUR EYES AND EARS?

WE BELIEVE:

THE ULYSSES ANDROID...

IS THE ANSWER.

[APPLAUSE]

AND NOW,

LET ME INTRODUCE

ULYSSES HIMSELF.

HELLO,

I AM THE ULYSSES ANDROID

DEVELOPED BY DR. JEFF PETERS

AT CHEMTEC,

AND I AM HERE:

TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

[ALL SPEAKING AT ONCE]

WE'RE CURIOUS TO KNOW

WHAT YOUR FEELINGS ARE

CONCERNING YOUR IMMINEN DEPARTURE INTO SPACE.

I'M AN ANDROID.

I DON'T HAVE FEELINGS.

BUT IT LOOKS LIKE

YOUR PROGRAM:

CONTAINS A LO OF HUMAN TENDENCIES.

THESE MINOR TECHNICAL ERRORS

HAVE BEEN CORRECTED.

THE QUESTION EVERYONE'S

DYING TO ASK IS,

ARE YOU STILL LOVESICK?

NO. NEXT QUESTION.

AREN'T YOU FRIGHTENED

GOING UP THERE ALONE

FOR SEVEN YEARS?

NO.

THAT'S EASY. IT'S PEOPLE

WHO ARE FRIGHTENING.

THEY WALK AROUND HUR AND CONFUSED AND MORE ALONE

THEN I WILL EVER BE

IN SPACE.

PEOPLE CAN BUILD AN INCREDIBLY

SOPHISTICATED SPACE PROGRAM,

AND YET THEY CAN'T SOLVE

THEIR MOST BASIC PROBLEM--

HOW TO LOVE AND CARE

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE THEM.

SOMEDAY WHEN PEOPLE

HAVE FIGURED THAT OUT,

THEY MIGHT BE MORE

THAN JUST MACHINES.

[APPLAUSE]

JESUS CHRIST!

THIS GUY COULD RUN

FOR PRESIDENT.

WHAT ARE YOU:

DOING HERE?

I JUST WANTED TO TELL

ULYSSES GOOD-BYE.

I DON'T THINK

THAT'S VERY APPROPRIATE.

DO YOU?

NO.

PROBABLY NOT.

Man:

THIS EVENING MARKED THE DAWN

OF A NEW ERA:
