Roxanne Page #2

Yeah.

That's unusual. It's pretty.

There's a name for a galaxy.

Sorry, didn't mean

to wax rhapsodic.

I should go.

It's late, I've got a lot

of important things to do.

Okay.

Well, wish me luck.

- On?

- Just luck.

No, I don't believe in luck.

Wish for something to happen.

I know what you mean.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

So long.

- Are you okay?

- Oh, I'm fine. I'm fine. Goodbye.

So long.

Bye.

Roxanne.

It's a party town, maestro.

You'll love it.

- Gavanna Samana?

- What?

Weren't you Playmate of the Month,

June '85?

- Come on.

- No.

That's really funny...

...because I thought I recognized

your inner diameter slope.

What's that?

That's the part of the back of your leg

that curves into your inner thigh.

Works every time, maestro.

I'm calling you maestro...

...because that's what you are

with the chicks, right?

All right, men, let's go.

I'll take the top one.

Gotcha.

- All right, man, are you ready?

- Okay.

Right.

What?

What's going on here?

Training.

I want something

that says action with style.

- Kind of a GQ firefighter.

- Hey, guys.

Guys, this is Chris, our new pro.

- A real firefighter.

- Welcome aboard, Chris.

I'm Mayor Deebs.

We didn't expect you till Monday.

Thought I'd come in early,

get a good start.

He's a maniac with the chicks too.

Dean, Trent,

my personal tailor, Sam.

I'll show you your room.

What do you think?

Cuffs or no cuffs?

- I think you'd better get off that hose.

- Oh, right up here. A fire hose.

I think I'm gonna have trouble

getting my telescope up those stairs.

I'll ask C.D. To do it.

If I can tear him away

from his encyclopedias.

He reads encyclopedias?

He is an encyclopedia.

He's funny.

Oh, he's great.

Yeah, he's my godbrother.

This uniform works.

That's why I'm a volunteer.

- I can tell.

- Hey, hey, Carol.

Hey, what about your boyfriend?

What's his name?

Richard.

When's he coming?

He's not.

He's not coming.

What happened?

We just ran out of gas.

I guess I mistook sex for love.

Oh, I did that once. It was great.

Sandy's a very deep person.

Oh, my God, who is that?

She could certainly make my night.

- Who is she?

- Oh, God.

Sandy, Sandy,

come here, come here.

Who's that?

That's Roxanne.

She studies astronomy

or astrology or something.

There's a difference?

Look, look, look,

someone is checking you out.

Now, he could cheer you up.

If I was you,

I'd do something about that.

Maybe.

Maybe later.

Maybe not.

You are playing it beautifully.

- You don't mind if I give it a shot?

- You go right ahead.

Thanks, maestro.

- Hi.

- Hi.

You know, I'd like to invite you

to a Nelson tradition of hot tubbing.

Pardon me?

It's a tradition we have here

to consume some mulled wine...

...and enjoy

some outdoor hot tubbing.

Tradition?

When the settlers came here

a hundred years ago...

...they started hot tubbing?

What? Oh, yeah.

You are feisty. I like that, I do.

He's got an ego the size of Brazil.

I'm sorry,

I just have to stop talking right now.

Hey, well, that's okay, no problem.

Tell you what, I'll be right over there.

And you just start thinking about it.

And if you change your mind,

just come on over.

And I think you might.

Well, if I do change my mind,

you'll know...

...because my breasts will be heaving

and moist with perspiration.

So long, foxy.

- So long. Later.

- Later.

Look at this. He only gave us

enough money for one drink.

And this is what it's gonna be like

being single.

Oh, he's got a great ass.

Too bad it's on his shoulders.

- Oh, he's cute.

- He's a flirt.

I have nothing against cute.

I just wish I could meet someone

with half a brain this time.

Good luck.

He went up there before school,

and he just won't come down.

All right, all right, all right.

- I'll see what I can do.

- Thanks.

Hey, Dean, it's Bales. B-A-L-E-S.

- Right, Bales, yeah.

- I hope so.

I know that.

You're the chief.

He's not moving or anything,

but he did it once before...

...but he's never stayed

up there this long.

- It's gonna be all right, honey.

- You think so?

C.D. Will take care of it.

Hey, what's the trouble, Peter?

Come on, what's the matter?

They call me Porky at school.

Why do they have to do that?

Goddamn it.

I shouldn't say that in front of you.

Did you talk to your mother

about it?

Once, I tried.

But she said I had to clean up

my plate first.

Now, see? That's good.

You're way better than these guys

who make fun of you.

You're smart, and you're funny.

You can make things up.

I didn't make it up. It's true.

Bastards.

I shouldn't say that in front of you.

Do I have to get down now?

No.

No.

Let's just stay up here for a while.

- That's our new computer.

- Yeah.

We can pinpoint

any fire in town with that.

I can see that.

It's perfect for us, because, you know,

we're the fire department.

Yeah, well, that is perfect.

- Hi, I'm Andy.

- Yeah, good to meet you.

- How are you?

- Fine, fine.

Well, I just wanted to welcome you.

Okay, thanks a lot.

So okay.

- Hey, there is one thing.

- Yeah?

- Have you met the chief?

- No.

Oh, he's kind of funny-looking,

so I wouldn't mention it.

I wouldn't do that.

Yeah, I figured you wouldn't.

But sometimes, you know,

things kind of accidentally slip out.

And then, you know:

Watch it. Watch it on that stair.

Who designed these steps?

The Marquis de Sade?

Watch the mirror.

Why is this thing so heavy?

It's mostly air.

Yeah, and glass, so be careful.

I have an aunt who knitted one of

these. It was much lighter than this.

This secret of yours

relates to this thing, right?

Sort of, yeah.

What are you doing?

What are you doing, Charlie?

Charlie, I can't hold this by myself.

- You don't have to tell me.

- Charlie.

- Okay, okay, I'll tell you.

- All right, all right, all right.

Start talking. There we go.

Wait a second, get a grip.

Got it.

I think I discovered a comet.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- Hold it there.

- Okay.

It's no big deal, you know.

There's lots of comets.

But see, I was working on this paper...

Watch it.

- On the Oort cloud.

- The Oort cloud, yeah.

And I discovered

a mathematical irregularity. What?

God, I haven't climbed this many steps

since I went to see the maharishi.

Let's go, go on.

Well, I think that a series

of 10 comets...

- Yeah?

- Watch it around this corner.

- Come around here.

- I got it.

- Are the forerunner of a big comet

which is due back this summer.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

So you're gonna find it

with this thing.

No, this is too small.

My uncle's looking for it

in the big scope in Arizona.

Oh, so I've carried this up here

for nothing.

Not really.

Okay, put that counterbalance

on that arm with the key.

So, what do you get if you're right?

Nothing.

Well, I graduate, that's for sure.

And I get to name it.

Well, that's pretty good.

Sort of historical.

Yeah.

Comet Kowalski.

Kowalski? Why?

You've got a chance

to give it a beautiful name.

That's my name.

It is? Roxanne Kowalski?
