The Wedding Pact Page #2

it's fiesta hour.

We got, you know,

free drinks.

- Uhh... But it's... ugh.

So what are you gonna do?

- Be honest?

Probably same thing

I've always done... nothing.

- Can I be honest?

That's stupid, man.

Come on... go after the girl!

- She lives a long way away,

and I am terrified of flying.

- Then drive.

- What about my job?

- You hate your job.

- What about my fish?

- I'll feed your fish.

- What about my plants?

- I'll water 'em.

- What if she

doesn't love me back?

- Well, what if she

love me back?

- All right.

You're an animal.

- Come on, man.

What if she does?

You'll never know unless

you get in this car

and go find out.

Yo, yo!

Thanks for the cocktails!

- Carl?

- Yeah.

- Douche.

- Douche.

- We're heading to val's.

You and your buddy wanna come?

- Yeah, Mitch, come on.

Come for a night cap.

- Yeah, Mitch.

Come!

- I'm gonna have to pass.

- What, do you got something

better to do?

- Yes, I do.

I'm going to San Diego.

Yeah! All right!

I'll come.

- Riding a narrow road

under skies so blue

hiding that I am

I'm searching for you

along the passersby

I keep looking in vain

day after day I ride

towards the setting sun

on the road traveled less

- Okay, so driving

across country

and just showing up

at her place with no warning?

Some people

might think it's crazy.

Or creepy.

But I think it's romantic.

toing and froing

gotta get 'em now,

gotta get your goal

gotta figure out what the hell

you know on your own

time to push the envelope,

runnin' out of rope

slipping down the slope,

looking for answers

I can't seem to find

- Bam.

Uh!

hey

- hey

I'm wastin' my time

get some more of the story

into the grind

gotta get 'em now,

gotta get your goal

gotta figure out...

- Wow, you're a long way

away from home.

Hey, there.

- Uh, hi.

- Where ya headed?

- Uh, San Diego.

- You look exhausted.

How long you been driving?

- Sheesh.

About 11 hours.

- What's your name,

patriot?

- Mitch.

- Hey, Mitch.

Nice to meet ya.

I'm Laura.

- Hi.

- You know, I run

a bed and breakfast

just up the road.

- Oh, well, uh...

That's okay.

- Come on.

I didn't meant to startle ya.

But you just look too cute

not to meet.

I got a nice bed

and a hot shower.

I was even gonna cook.

You like spicy?

Yeah, I don't know.

Mmm. Oh, my gosh.

That was fantastic.

Thank you.

- That's sweet.

There's more if you like.

- After 11 hours of driving

and three glasses of wine

and a meal like that...

Just point me to bed.

I am done.

- Mmm. Bed.

That sounds real nice.

Oh...

You really are cute.

Don't move.

- Wh...

- hello.

Oh, hey, Rudy.

It's my brother.

It'll just be a sec.

- Okay.

- Really?

That's kinda last minute.

But I have a guest here.

All right,

I'll see ya in a bit.

My brother and his friends

get together once a week

and they lost

their usual place, so...

He asked if he could

come here.

But I said he had to be

real quiet.

Um...

I'll just...

Probably...

- Okay.

Who is she,

and what's her name?

- What do you mean?

Uh...

Elizabeth.

I haven't seen her

since college,

and we made this pact

back then

that if we weren't married

in ten years,

we were gonna marry

each other.

So here it is ten years

later,

and, uh...

I'm gonna track her down.

- You made the old friend

college

ten-year pact?

- Sounds kinda dumb

when you say it like that.

- No, it is kinda dumb.

- Maybe, but...

I have to try.

- Are you sure?

- If I had a nickel

for every time a beautiful

woman like yourself

tried to take me to bed,

including right now...

- You'd have a nickel?

- Maybe a dime.

- Well, she's lucky

to have you,

even if she doesn't know it.

- Thank you.

- I would love to find

some guy

to take me away

from this life.

- You? I'm sure you have

plenty of offers.

- I seem to be attracted

to losers.

- Wait a minute.

Did she just call me a loser?

I haven't felt that awkward

since my first day of college.

- Here we go.

- Whoop! Yeah.

- College!

- All right!

Got in.

- Mitch.

- Oh.

I'm Dave.

- Hey.

Cool!

- Okay, all right.

This'll work.

Now that that's settled,

I'm gonna go take a whiz.

College!

- College.

O-ma-o-ma-my-ma...

O-ma-o-ma-my-ma...

- What the f...

Aah! Ohh!

Ohh!

Mitch?

A-are you all right?

- I'm fine.

Thank you.

- I thought I heard

a crash in there.

- Uh...

I just dropped

some change on the table.

I'm good.

- Honey, can you open

the door, please?

- Ohh...

Coming.

Ohh... Ooh.

See? All good.

- Actually,

I'm glad you're awake.

- Oh, really?

- My brother and his friends

are outside,

and he'd like to meet you.

- Your brother what?

- He'd like to meet you.

- Do you think

that's a good idea?

I mean, he seems...

Pretty busy with the boys

and all.

- Laura! Get your sorry butt

out here with your friend now.

- Rudy, don't push me!

Mitch is getting dressed

and will be out in a minute!

Sorry.

- That's okay.

- If you could...

If you could just get dressed

and come out with me,

it would be really great.

- I'll be out in a sec.

- Okay.

I'm dead!

- I knew about you

as soon as I met you.

- As did I you, sir.

- Sir.

- Sir?

Well, look out, everybody.

Here comes sir Rudy!

- Well, I gotta get going.

Got a long drive ahead of me.

- Hey, listen, we are gonna

be out in Zuma

in the next couple weeks.

If you need any help,

you call.

Deal?

- Deal.

- Ah!

- ah!

And thanks for

that all-American burger.

- You're welcome.

- I know he can be

an obnoxious jerk.

But he's my brother.

- It's family.

Hey, Laura,

thank you for everything.

And take care of yourself.

- You too, darling.

Now, go find Elizabeth.

Have your friend call me.

- Will do.

- So hot,

look at that body

ooh, girl

I'm gonna do

something naughty

Strawberries and cream.

If you know this...

Listen, babe, wait.

Yello?

- Hey, man.

- Oh, hey, man!

Where are you?

- Texas.

- Texas?

Only two things in Texas...

and you're not a steer.

- How's it going?

You got a number for me?

- Sorry, but you're really...

Not gonna like this.

- Aw, dude,

after the night I had,

it's not even gonna matter.

Just shoot.

Yeah, she doesn't

live in, um, San Diego.

She lives in Hawaii.

- Hawaii?

- Yeah, dude, Hawaii.

But look, you can do this.

- How am I gonna get

to Hawaii?

Is there a boat?

- No, dude.

Not unless you want to

spend $5,000.

But you can take a flight.

What the...

- I'll tell you what.

I'll tell you what.

I will book you... come here.

I'll book you a ticket.

Right there.

Perfect, baby, just...

- all right, look,

just book it.

And I got the number of

a smoking hot woman

I'll give you, okay?

- Oh, really?

One sec.

How hot?

- Just book the ticket.

- All right, okay.

Guess what.

All right, one second.

Ooh... Pow!

All right, mm-hmm.

You owe me $600.

- Fine.

- Call you back.

I'm in the middle of something.

Safe flight.

Ooh! Hit me one time.

- We got you in 21b.

It's a middle seat.

Apologize.

That's all we have.
