Why make those people clap,

so we come out again?

You don't get it, do you, man?

Check out this review of our record.

Read it out loud.

'Once again, when Cliff Poncier sings-'

Wait a minute. I don't want

to hear anything negative.

Go on.

'He was ably backed by Stone,

Jeff and drummer Eddie Vedder. '

That's a good review.

A compliment for us

is a compliment for you.

No, man.

This negative energy

just makes me stronger.

We will not retreat.

This band is unstoppable!

This weekend, we rock Portland.

I know you're in love,

but are you sure you want to do this?

My mind is made up.

Want to read a magazine?

Thanks for doing this with me.

Didn't want you to go alone.

Tell me, what do you

really want from a guy?

When I first moved here from Tucson...

...I wanted a guy with...

...looks...

...security...

...caring...

...someone with their own place.

Someone who said 'bless you'

or ' gesundheit ' when I sneezed.

And someone who liked

the same things as me, but not exactly.

Someone who loves me.

Tall order.

I scaled it down a little.

What is it now?

Someone who says

' gesundheit ' when I sneeze.

Though I prefer 'bless you. '

It's nicer.

Sorry you had to wait.

This is my friend Steve.

Dr. Jamison.

Come on in.

Last chance.

Here we go.

I'm going to say something that

I haven't said to any patients...

...in 3 years of being at HMO.

I will perform the operation

but I don't think you need it.

I think you're perfect.

I think if your boyfriend doesn't

appreciate you the way you are...

...then you have to ask,

are you his Miss Right...

...or are you his Miss Maybe?

What's that mean?

Did my check bounce?

I really have a feeling about you.

Thanks but...

...I love my boyfriend.

I still feeI good about

saying what I said.

You should. It's good!

Can I say something to you?

Sure.

Your face wants a different part.

- You know, your hair.

- My hair?

There you go!

Now you look vaguely rocking.

I mean, come on.

You're a happening guy, you know?

You're Dr. Jamison.

You've got...

...nice eyes. And you've got those

great, trustworthy eyebrows.

And you're a surgeon, man!

Many, many babes are into that.

No, really!

Listen, I have friends

who would love you.

I don't know how to have fun, right?

I'm 33 years old and

I don't know how to have fun.

There.

Now was that fun or what?

Yeah. That was fun.

Doc?

And now with the operation.

I want Cliff to like me the way I am.

Thanks.

A few days later, she leaves the hive.

Now she's ready to mate.

So Portland, maybe it wasn't our city.

Where are the anthems of our youth?

What happened to music

that meant something?

The Who at the IKingdome

or IKiss at the Coliseum?

Where is the 'Misty Mountain Hop'?

Where is the 'Smoke on the Water'

or the 'Ironman' of today?

We're not going out tonight,

are we, honey?

Look at this. These bands are like

well-designed bottles of bleach.

It's beer-and-lifestyle music.

I mean, it's like the next world war

is going to be sponsored by...

I don't know. What?

We could just take a bath.

Just remember one thing.

We are loved in Belgium and in Italy.

The yellow jacket wasp

has come looking for food.

The alarm has sounded.

They pour into the European hive.

Hey, babe, don't get me sick.

I'm playing this weekend.

Wait a minute.

What am I doing?

I don't have to be here.

I could just break up with him.

I have always been able to do this.

Break up with someone

and never look back.

Being alone.

There's a certain dignity to it.

Did I overreact?

You know who this is?

We spent a couple

of great weeks together.

But my mind works in strange ways.

When things are at their best,

I wait for them to fall apart.

I can't figure out

if I do it to myself...

...or if life does it for me.

I'm a little late this month,

that's all I'm saying.

How late?

Late.

Steve Dunne.

Doug Hughley.

Mr. Deegan's class.

What is up, you old goat?!

- How you doing?

- Okay, man.

You know how much homework

I missed because of you?

I loved your radio show.

That was the best.

Thanks, man.

We're throwing down tonight

over on Aloha Street.

We got 2 bands.

It'll be insane!

Would you get up and do a little

'Wheels of SteeI'?

Are you sure?

You're the only one who can mix up

Elvis Costello and Public Enemy.

What's so funny about

Peace peace peace?

Love and under-

Death Row

What does a brother understand?

You're the best.

You are the king.

You are the king!

You've got to be there, man.

You must be there!

Of course, you may be busy.

Ten more minutes and we pour X into B

and if it's blue-

Then we have a big talk.

- I have some time right now.

- Then let's talk right now.

- My body knows it'll be blue.

- It won't be blue.

I've never gotten anybody pregnant.

It won't be blue.

I'm probably sterile.

A family trait.

Really?

Do you know where my other shoes are?

Maybe they're by the door.

That'd be wild.

- What?

- Having a kid.

- If you were pregnant.

- If I were.

Which I'm not.

And I wouldn't expect you

to deaI with it anyway.

I'd be with you.

We'd deaI with it.

To friendship.

That's bluish, right?

It's fairly blue.

Oh, well.

Wait. Put it against

something blue, though.

Wait. Let's try and put it

against something white.

- So what are you doing today?

- Not much.

I got to meet the deputy mayor

to see the mayor.

- Good. I have stuff to do too.

- So you can call me.

Call you or...

- And finally...

- Interesting!

...if we can get the single-car driver

onto the supertrain...

...we can change the city.

It's all in the proposaI.

Flirts with brilliance.

Wish it were up to me.

Let me get you 15 minutes

with the mayor.

Thank you.

So basically, that's kind of

what we're all about...

...give or take a little.

I'd like to just kind of

leave it up to you at this point.

I think that will be great.

I think you've explained it really well.

These are the men who want me.

But I'm more than just a good body.

Feelings, man!

I have a lot of

tender feelings which are...

...just waiting for the right woman.

It's hard to get it across

when you look like this, obviously.

My name is Spiro. I'm an artist.

As you can see, my painting

is displayed behind me.

I'm the kind of person that's really...

...meticulous in appearance,

and also very precise.

In fact, if two people

really believe in each other...

...that love can go around the world

and through each other's soul.

But love is a very delicate thing.

In fact, if you're both not careful

and nurturing, that love can...

I'm looking for a woman

who is unpredictable.

Someone who is complex.

Someone who is willing to experiment.

I like the way the world

looks from a bicycle.

I guess I'm just looking for someone

who feels the same way I do.

About a bicycle.

Am I coming off as too intense?

I can be intensely laid back too.

I am very...

...very...

...very lonely.

Who?

Definitely the bicycle guy.

The bicycle guy.

He's, like, your souI mate.
