- But when we were younger, I think.|- Oh, God.
When I was younger, I was gonna|marry Boris Becker, wasn't I?
- Hey, guys. What did you think?|- Hey!
Well, I mean, was that last song|really inspired by my sister?
Every artist|needs his muse.
- Who wants to hear the good news?|- Hey, I pay you for the good news.
No. You pay me|to keep away the bad news.
- Bring it on.|- Lars' dates in Stockholm|sold out in eight hours.
Wow!
That means we're gonna|have to add some more shows.|So we'll bump Paris--
Sorry. I don't wanna|spoil anyone's party,
but Lars and I have|already set the dates|for our honeymoon and our wedding,
and I've told my patients|when I'm going.
Well, baby, your patients can do|without you for a couple weeks.
He's right, Sara.|I mean, a couple of extra weeks|in Europe aren't gonna kill you.
Caroline's just pushing you|to stay longer...
'cause she wants us|to house-sit for you guys.
Yeah, thank you.|I was going to ask her|when she was drunk.
- Actually, that's a great idea.|- Yeah?|- Yes!
Come on, Kip.|Let's get out of here|before Sara changes Lars' mind.
- I said something wrong?|- No, it's--
I've just got|a very detailed schedule...
and my patients|are important too.
- I don't like changing|the dates at the last minute.|- Excuse me. I'm sorry.
But I really need you to approve|these T-shirt designs forAustralia.
- Oh, no problem.|- You don't mind, do you?
- Can we do this later?|- Yeah.
She don't mind.
That's chamomile|for you ladies.
- Nice and hot. Very good.|- Thanks.
Sara, it was a movie poster.|It's no big deal.
It's peculiar though, right?|Don't you think?
Look, I thought you were through|with all this New Age bullshit...
like horoscopes and feng shui|and all the crap.
Eve, for someone|who owns a New Age store,|you are alarmingly earthbound.
Oh, yeah? And for|a shrink-in-training,|you are a little bit crazy.
- I'll tell you that much.|-[Woman] Excuse me.
- Do you carry the Casanova candle?|- As a matter of fact, we do.
Check on the shelf across|from the Caligula incense.
And they're on sale,|so today's your lucky day.
Great. You see,|that is what happens...
when people get hooked|on the New Age life.
They end up sitting at home|burning candles for Mr. Right...
when Mr. Good Enough For Right Now|is waiting at the corner bar.
- [ Giggling ]|- Hi. Oh, yeah.|She's a pain in the ass.
- And I gotta find her.|- I've been here three years,|so this is--
Yeah, I understand.|But your computer system|has been here for a long time.
- I think-- I think you're|just wasting my time, sir.|- No, no.
- Here's the thing.|- There's nothing I can do.
- It's very crucial.|- You cannot be over here.|You cannot come over...
- to this side of the counter.|- All right.
- Please don't cross this line.|Thank you.|- All I really need...
is if you can enter this|account number in the computer...
- and just tell me her name.|- Oh, I see.
When you put it|that way, no.
- Would 20 bucks help?|- It might if I was|a health inspector.
- Listen, this is really important.|- Oh, boy, did it again.
Crossed the line. You have to remain|on the other side of the register.
I don't wanna say it again.|Remain on that side. Thank you.
Let's bottom-line this, huh?|What's it gonna take?|I have to have the name.
Well, I was a little short|on myweekly sales draw.
- Were you?|- I'm just mentioning.
Okay. Um, I'm going|to, uh-- [ Muttering ]
- Uh-uh.|- Look where my feet are.
Allright?
- Lovely choice, sir.|- Thank you.
Account number|was 029351--
I thought you said you were gonna|help with my weekly draw.
The tie's worth $95.|We're still 700 short.
- $700? That's extortion.|- 700.
That's good|salesmanship, sir.
What do I need?
Ring it up.
- Well, we have a purple tie.|What would go with a purple tie?|- Mm-hmm.
I look like a magician.
All right,|you horrible little man.
I bought the entire spring line.|Okay, you happy?
- Now, look her up.|- I already did.
It was a dead account.|There's no information|in our computers.
- You give me that?|- Hey, chase me.
- Chase you? What? Are you insane?|- Don't cross the line!
- You crossed the line!|- Stop saying that|or I will cut you!
Now, you better find a way|to help me right now!
- I can suggest another option.|- Suggest it fast.
When our customers|apply for a credit card,
the hard copies go to our|storage facility in Queens.
All you need is the account number,|which you already have,
and you can find|her application.
However, you need|an employee to get you in.
You need an employee...
to get you in.
Crocodile.
Hal.
Halley.
A natural.
- Yeah?|- Yeah. Really natural.
- No, no, no. Cut, cut, cut.|- What's the problem?
The problem is you can't fend|off an army of blood thirsty|Vikings with a shehnai.
- It's illogical.|- No, see-- No, no.
You're lulling them|into submission with the music.
That's the whole point|of the song, really.|"Mystic Surrender."
You don't think he looks|like he hates the music?
No. Hey.
Hey, baby.
- Now, this guy, he's-he's like|Alec Guinness. So good.|- Yeah.
Star Wars.|Obi-Wan.
All right, right here,|what are they doing?|What's their attitude?
- Whatare they thinking?|Whoare thesepeople?|- They're in awe and speechless.
And they're just grateful.|Underfed. Underpaid.
Why don't they ask me to stay|in the village and have a feast?
Yeah. Sara, hey.
- Can we talk for a sec?|- Sure.
Okay, yeah, I'm going|to split, guys.
Lars, I'll tell you what.|I'm gonna talk to the director...
and I'm gonna have him|tweak that whole section.
- It'll be fine. It'll be fine.|- Tell him about the feast.
- What's going on?|- I lost my keys yesterday.
- Oh, that's a drag.|- And I've just|found them in the freezer.
I don't get it.|Is that a joke?
No, Lars,|it's not a joke.
I feel like|I'm losing my mind.
It's the wedding plans|and the tour and my patients.
It's just a bit|too much to deal with.
Okay, Sara, look. We're leaving|for Toronto in the morning,
- so don't fall apart on me now.|- I know, I know, I know.
And that's why I think|I need a little break.
What do you mean,|a little break?
No, not that kind|of little break.
I just mean a weekend away|to recharge my batteries|and clear my head.
Hey, this has nothing|to do with the other night.
I just need this.|I need it for me.
But I won't go|unless you say it's okay.
- It's okay.|- Thank you.
Okay. Where are you going?|Where are you going?
Oh, I don't know.|New York, maybe.
- Happy birthday.|- Oh, my God.
Are you serious?|Get out of town.
Yeah, that's the idea.
- Thanks. Talk to you soon.|- Okay.
This is unbelievable.
Sara, really, this is|way too generous of you.
Oh, come on.|Can't a girl do something nice|for her friend on her birthday?
There's no ulterior motives?
Well, yeah.
I'm getting married in a week|and I'd just like to have|one last fling...
with my best friend|before I walk down the aisle.
- It's so sweet. But, you know,|you're really not my type.|- Oh, thanks.
