kept in the dark on this?

Wannamaker took money

from Proctor, too.

Fortunately, Proctor

wanted our guy to win.

Thank you.

Have a nice evening, sir.

What am I doing?

I also wanna give a special thanks

to my press secretary,

a real trouper, Miss Julia Mann!

Oh, come on, Julia.

Come on out here and take a bow.

Come on. Come on.

She's a little shy, folks.

No se tu

Pero yo quisiera repetir

El cansancio que mi hiciste sentir

(over Tannoy) Uh, pardon me, Julia?

Kevin?

Can I talk to you for a second?

- Where the hell are you?

- Up here, on the balcony,

A little to your left,

A little more, Eight here,

- Hi.

- There he is, right up there.

Get rid of that guy! What the hell is this?

I've got a speech to finish.

I know all about Proctor, Lloyd. OK?

So stuff it. You're already finished.

Go ahead, Kevin.

You have something to say?

Here?

Look, I just... I think maybe

there's this tiny little possibility

that maybe we, uh...

we make sense.

Well, we did sleep together,

I'll give you that.

No, I mean we actually slept.

Sleeping slept.

I... I haven't slept like that

for a long time.

- Unlock the door!

- Look, Julia, let's face it.

We belong together.

Why?

God, I'm a writer.

I should be prepared for this stuff.

Uh... Because after all we've been

through, Julia, I mean, look at us.

We're still here, aren't we?

I mean, we're still together.

- Kind of.

- That's it? Can't do any better than that?

Can't do any better... Uh...

- Open the door, sir!

- Well, uh...

- Push it.

- Unlock the door, sir!

Wait right there.

No. Kevin.

- Get him!

- Oh, sh*t.

(cheering)

- Kevin!

- Julia!

- Tarzan!

- Jane!

- I love you, Julia.

- I love you, Kevin.

What did the lip tattoo say?

- Kiss me.

- "Kiss me"? Nah, you're making that up.

And turning now to

other key races around the country,

Ehode Island may end up

looking like a combat zone,

since relative unknown Julia Mann

announced her candidacy today

- in the heated congressional battle,

- Huh?

This campaign, which

many believe is a long shot,

was defended by campaign manager

Kevin Vallick as the right choice,,,

- Julia and Kevin?

- I give 'em six months.

A year.

Happily ever after.

Well, I bet you any amount of money

He'll be coming back to you

Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it

Sometimes life is funny

You think you're in your darkest hour

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

Ooh

House of love

Oh

You've been up all night

Thinkin' it was over

He's been out of sight

At least for the moment

But when something this strong

Ooh, gets a hold on you

The odds are 99 to one

It's got a hold on him too

Well, I bet you any amount of money

He'll be coming back to you

Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it

Sometimes life is funny

You think you're in your darkest hour

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

Now when the house is dark

And you're all alone inside

You've gotta listen to your heart

Put away your foolish pride

Though the storm is breaking

And thunder shakes the walls

Love with a firm foundation

Ain't never, never, never gonna fall

Well, I bet you any amount of money

He'll be coming back to you

Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it

Sometimes life is funny

You think you're in your darkest hour

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

In the house of love

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

Though the storm is breaking

And thunder shakes the walls

Love with a firm foundation

Ain't never, never, never gonna fall

Well, I bet you any amount of money

He'll come back to you

Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it

Sometimes life is funny

You think you're in your darkest hour

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love

Oh, I bet you

He'll come back to you, back to you

Oh, there ain't no doubt about it

Sometimes life is funny

You think you're in your darkest hour

When the lights are coming on

in the house of love
