It is very delicate.

I must bond.

I knoW you said an hour, but it's cold

today and I couldn't stay away.

- Tell me everything!

- HoW much?

I'll tell you What. We're going to

look out the living room Windows.

Why? Because I'll tell you Why.

Windows are the eyes of a room.

- So?

- Oh, Duarto.

The valance...

The valance is our eyebrows.

- The drapes are...

- I gotta pee.

You can't, you can't!

Where was I?

Oh, the drapes... are the eyelashes.

You said Windows Were eyelashes.

What do We do?

Where do We go?

The WindoW. Come on.

What do We do now?

We'll get into this WindoW

washing thing and ride it doWn.

- Annie...

- You gotta go doWn, honey.

- It's the only way out!

- I have a fear of everything.

- Come on, you're the neW Annie.

- Annie, watch!

I'm going in first.

I do all my oWn stunts.

Gimme the controls!

I can't do this!

I can't stand this!

Gotham's my inspiration.

The White of the snoW

pelting the trees of Central Park.

The yelloW of the taxis.

The blue...

But Who cares about blue?

No one feels blue With my design.

- Forget about that.

- What about those drapes?

The WindoW meeting is over.

It's time to consider the stairs.

- What about that dumb fountain?

- I rather like it.

I'd rather look at the WindoW.

Oh, my God!

- Is that Elise Eliot?

- Elise, you look great!

You look great!!

You want to go again?

- Oh, my God!

- I've never been so petrified.

No, really, really... except for

that one time.

- I'm not going to tell you.

- Why not? We Won't judge you.

We're your buddies. We cherish you.

We Would never ever make fun of you.

Ever! Would We, hon?

- No, no.

- OK.

All right. You remember

Cynthia's 21st birthday?

Her parents rented that big hall.

We wanted to do

something special for her.

Elise thought We should be

the entertainment.

We Were supposed

to sing to her like a girl group.

We sang that Leslie Gore song.

Remember? We Were a big hit.

I hated it. I can't sing.

I was terrified before all those people.

I'd ratherjump off that building.

- You Were Wonderful.

- But it was for Cynthia.

I remember that.

We Were a group.

We are a group!

We should do it and sing again.

- Let's do it again. I wanna sing.

- Why?

Why not? We'll blend.

We'll sing With you.

- We'll blend!

- All of us altogether, real loud, OK?

You're gonna sing With me, all right?

To Cynthia.

Happy birthday Wherever you are.

All right, I'm ready.

- Go!

- Pick a note!

You don't oWn me!

I'm not just one of your many toys

You don't oWn me!

Don't say I can't go With other boys

And don't tell me What to do!

And don't tell me What to say!

I sound horrible.

I hate you for this.
