Yes!!

(2)Ian points to a wine on the list.
The Waiter goes. They look around. Turn back, smile shyly.
IAN:
Do you think Paris will go to a
college out of state?
Toula remembers what Aunt Voula said.
TOULA:
Thea Voula suggested we don’t talk
about Paris. How was your day?
IAN:
Um, good. What’d you do?
TOULA:
Worked, found out my parents aren’t
married. You?
IAN:
Your parents are swingers.
The Waiter pours their wine. They drink. Smile awkwardly.
IAN (CONT’D)
So wait, why can’t we talk about
Paris?
TOULA:
Right? I have to!
IAN:
Okay, how do we keep her from
moving away for college?
TOULA:
We could act like it’s okay with
us.
IAN:
Reverse psychology. Good. How
about a letter? Dear Admissions
Board:
I sure hope you accept mydaughter and her twelve piece drum
kit.
TOULA:
Add in, “do you have a Student
Lounge where she can sell pot?”
Toula laughs, Ian laughs. They lock eyes.

(3)Toula gets emotional.
TOULA (CONT’D)
I don’t know what I’ll do if she
goes...
Ian takes her hand.
IAN:
C’mon, hon. It’s our one night out
in forever.
Toula fights to not cry. Ian picks up a menu.
IAN (CONT’D)
It’ll be okay.
Toula sadly nods.
DISSOLVE TO:
I/E. MILLER CAR/PORTOKALOS STREET - LATER THAT NIGHT
The radio PLAYS. Ian drives as Toula looks out the window.
It’s tense; their date didn’t go well. Ian sighs.
IAN:
This is why Aunt Voula said don’t
talk about Paris.
TOULA:
But once you’re a parent, what else
do you want to talk about?
IAN:
I don’t know.
TOULA:
Thea Voula said to remember I was a
girlfriend before I was a mother.
Ian slowly smiles a bit at that.
IAN:
Yeah, you were my girlfriend.
Now Toula slowly smiles a bit.
Ian turns the corner.
They’re on their street. Ian points to the Portokalos family
home in the distance.
(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:
IAN (CONT’D)
Remember when we were dating, how
you wouldn’t let me drop you off in
front in case your parents saw me?
TOULA:
No, I didn’t want you to see the
house.
IAN:
How could I miss it?
Ian pulls over and parks.
IAN (CONT’D)
We used to park right here.
It’s dark. And quiet. Ian looks out the windshield.
IAN (CONT’D)
I remember those good night kisses.
Toula looks at him.
TOULA:
You do, huh?
Ian leans in.
IAN:
Yes.
They kiss. It’s nice. It keeps going. And going.
Really going.
The MUSIC swells.
And then -- a LIGHT shines into the car.
GUS (O.C.)
What are you doing?
Toula and Ian cover themselves, shield their eyes.
Gus shines a flashlight into the car.
TOULA:
Nothing, nothing, we’re going.
IAN:
Everything’s okay.

(2)Ian struggles to dress himself, Gus realizes what’s
happening.
GUS:
You don’t have a house to do that?!
Just then, Paris, Aunt Voula and Maria, walking the old Lab,
Socrates, round the corner. They see Gus.
AUNT VOULA:
Gus, what’s wrong?
Aunt Voula and Maria run up, realize it’s Toula and Ian, try
to push Gus’s flashlight away.
AUNT VOULA (CONT’D)
Gus!
Paris realizes it’s her parents.
PARIS:
(nuh-uh)
Perfect.
AUNT VOULA:
Parents deserve a sex life.
PARIS:
Said no one, ever.
IAN:
We’re just talking. By the way
Paris, we think you should go to
college out of state.
Toula nods her head as hard as she can.
MARIA:
What is that, reverse psychology?
AUNT VOULA:
That never works.
MARIA:
That never works.
PARIS:
That never works.
The nosy/cranky neighbor Mrs. White, walking her dog, sees
the commotion.

(3)MRS. WHITE
What’s going on, I’m calling the

Stop that, quiet!
MARIA:
He doesn’t speak English.
dog, subtitled)
Bite her tomorrow.
The Portokalos dog immediately sits.
Mrs. White suspiciously looks at them all as she leaves.
MRS. WHITE
I have pepper spray.
Gus turns back to Ian.
GUS:
Ian Miller, in the street?! It’s
not decent!!
Maria turns on Gus, furious.
MARIA:
What’s the problem? At least
they’re married.
GUS:
Maria....
MARIA:
Don’t Maria me. We’re not married.
Paris’s jaw drops.
MARIA (CONT’D)
You want decency? Tonight, you
sleep in another room.
Maria takes the dog toward the house.
(CONTINUED)
42
CONTINUED:
(4)GUS:
Fine!
MARIA:
No fine!
Neighborhood lights go on. Gus follows Maria in.
Aunt Voula leads Paris to the Miller house.
PARIS:
Uh, can I just ask....
AUNT VOULA:
Yes dear, your grandparents are
living in sin. Your Pappou won’t
propose-
PARIS:
I don’t get why Yiayia needs that-
AUNT VOULA:
Because you’re not a woman who has
lived with Pappou for 50 years.
SFX:
A door slams inside the Portokalos house.Inside the car, Ian and Toula look at each other.
TOULA:
I have to fix this.
Smiling, Ian moves in.
IAN:
Right, right. Anyway, where were
we?
Toula pushes him away, laughs.
TOULA:
We can’t....
They go back to making out.
From the dark Miller yard, Mana-Yiayia runs by, wearing the
red nightgown.
DISSOLVE TO:

Gus sulks. A PHYSICAL THERAPIST attaches weights to Gus’s
ankles.
PHYSICAL THERAPIST
You’re late today.
GUS:
(mumbles)
My wife wouldn’t drive me.
PHYSICAL THERAPIST
Pardon?
GUS:
Nothing.
PHYSICAL THERAPIST
Lift these, I’ll be back.
Gus lifts them to impress her. As soon as she’s out of
sight, Gus and the OTHER MEN stop working.
A swarthy man, KAVEH, 70’s, sits on the table beside Gus.
GUS:
You Greek?
KAVEH:
Iranian.
GUS:
So, Persian?
Kaveh nods.
GUS (CONT’D)
In 334 BC, Alexander the Great
conquered the Persian Army and
occupied the east. You are so
Greek, we’re probably related.
KAVEH:
We had civilizations in Persia 3000
years before you Greeks discovered
rocks.
Gus is stunned.
(CONTINUED)
44
CONTINUED:
GUS:
The Greeks gave the world
philosophy, democracy-
KAVEH:
In 2500 BC, we already had
instruments that measured weight
and money!
A Chinese man, PIM, 70’s, chimes in.
PIM:
The Chinese gave the world paper
and tea and medicine!
Another man, BAIRD, 70’S, chimes in with a Scottish accent.
BAIRD:
Without Scotland’s Alexander
Fleming, the world wouldn’t have
penicillin!
GUS:
Soon I’m going to have proof that I
am a direct descendant of Alexander
the Great!
The others now laugh HARD at Gus.
The Physical Therapist comes back, they lift their leg
weights.
Gus sulks.
CUT TO:
INT. DANCING ZORBA’S - DAY
From the counter, Toula watches as Gus still sulks in his
corner booth. Uncle Taki listens.
GUS:
I sleep with the dog. She won’t
give me my pills in the morning,
she won’t clean --
UNCLE TAKI:
Anarchy.
Gus looks over at a table near the counter: Maria whispers
with Aunt Voula.
