Worth Winning (1989) - full transcript
Taylor is a man who has no problems with women. So confident is he that he accepts a challenge from his friends: he has to secure proposals of marriage from three women of their choice.
Whoa! Now, that's
a fine animal!
Oh, yeah.
Great stud, I bet.
Now, the real advantage
of being here today
at Atlantic city racecourse
to bring you the weather
is that we've got
the real thing.
No boards, no mats,
no pretty computer graphics.
Uh-uh. The real thing.
We got the real sun,
as I predicted.
We've got
the real blue skies,
as I predicted.
Heck,
we even got real horses,
as I predicted.
[Laughter]
And speaking
of predictions,
hey, we even got
a real winner.
Ooh!
This is Taylor worth,
channel 5 news,
Philadelphia,
and I'll see you at 11:00.
And we're clear.
[Crowd talking]

10, 20, 5, 50.
Number 7,
moving marcelle, to show.
Come on, ned,
at least bet him to win.
Thank you.
Hi. $40, number 3,
my Charlie's angel,
to win, please.
Thank you.
My gambling fund's
a little low.
Gambling fund?
Gambling fund?
Yes.
Ned, what
happened to you?
What happened
to the kid
who bet his father's
golf clubs
on Cindy brownell's
bra size?
Hey, remember when I bet
my scholarship money
you'd flunk out
before midterms?
Yeah. What happened?
Daddy. Daddy. Daddy.
I settled down.
Come on, pumpkin.
Ned's actually
a terrific guy,
except he's lost his edge.
When we were 11,
he decided
we should get mohawks.
I shaved my head.
He laughed for a month.
You see this 50?
And you see that 50?
Yeah.
They're not the same.
They're not?
No. This is 3 days
of nursery school to me.
And what's that?
Champagne for 2?
Silk panties for Mona.
Mona?
Do I know Mona?
No. I haven't
mentioned her.
You're buying
silk panties for a girl
you haven't even
mentioned to me?
Ned, it's not important.
Don't worry about it.
There is no Mona.
Taylor?
Lizbette.
Don't sweet-talk me.
How are you?
How should I be?
You asked Wendy out,
my own roommate.
I know. You work
Tuesday nights.
Don't touch me.
She said no.
Well, of course
she did.
See?
No harm done.
He is my hero.
A hero should
accomplish something.
I mean, what has
Taylor accomplished?
We are happily
married men.
With curfews.
Yeah. I'd rather
be like Taylor.
Taylor doesn't know it yet,
but he'd rather be like us.
You should see him
with my family.
He really soaks it up.
Now, that's what
he really wants.
He just doesn't
know it yet.
Hey, I'm a shrink.
I know these things, right?
I'm worried about him.
Did you get
a load of her legs?
Yes.
Don't you understand?
He is dumping her!
Taylor is stuck in
a very destructive pattern.
They hit the 2-month Mark,
and he is running.
It's classic.
Reject them
before they reject you.
No. No woman is ever
going to reject Taylor.
That's too bad, because
that's what he really needs.
Well, that's what
every man really needs.
Without suffering,
you don't grow.
Forget it.
It'll never happen.
If only there was something
I could do for him.
If only I could pick
Taylor's next woman,
you know, someone
who will dump him first.
Someone who'll give him
the gift of heartache.
Someone with pms.
No. Someone
who's looking for
more in a man
than good looks.
And a great
sense of humor.
And a 6-figure income.
And glamorous job.
Yeah, but more than that.
Someone who'll torture him,
turn him inside out,
hurt him,
you know, like love.
Forget it.
She's not out there.
I bet I could find her.
I bet you couldn't.
I bet he could.
I got 10 bucks
says no way.
You're on.
You in, ned?
You are both
missing my point.
Taylor would
have to cooperate.
Oh, no. He'll want
in on this.
It's got to be bigger.
Bigger? 2 women.
10 women.
11 women.
That's not going to
cut it anymore.
You're going to
have to--
I know.
Stop seeing you.
Taylor.
Lizbette, I'm not
good enough for you.
You've made some
very valid points.
I ought to be able to
make a commitment by now.
Taylor, let's say
I never came here today.
No. No.
Let's just
forget everything.
No. Listen to me.
Your instincts are sound.
It's time to move on.
Lizbette,
I just don't think
it can be together.
Well, what am I
supposed to do?
You?
Soar.
Race announcer:
Ladies and gentlemen,
the horses are
parading to the post
for the next race
of the afternoon.
What?
We've got
a proposition for you.
You have 3 months
to get engaged
to 3 woman,
and I pick the women.
You're insane.
Chloe,
that's pretty.
Now, this is the dumbest one
they've ever come up with.
They're always trying to rope me
in on some stupid bet.
Then when
I take them up on it,
they drop like flies.
Watch.
What are
the stakes?
Your fishing cabin
against my Mercedes.
No. No, see,
I already have a car.
I want something else.
Name it.
I love
torturing him.
The Picasso.
The Picasso!
It's an original.
I can't bet that.
Fine. No bet.
It's Claire's.
Her grandfather
left it to her.
So?
You're on.
You're kidding!
This is for
your own good.
Announcer: It's moving marcelle
in a charging start,
with boo-boo,
Rachel's ride, and....
Boys, sorry
I missed the game.
That's ok.
Did you cripple
another quarterback?
Yeah. 2.
Bachelorette number 1.
Ice goddess!
I got 20
says he can't
even get a date.
40 says he can.
Guys, a beautiful
woman is one
of the loneliest creatures
on the face of the earth.
All I need is an opening,
a ticket of admission.
Bet. Bet.
Ned: No. No, Chloe.
Horsey. Horsey.
Chloe, do you see
that pretty blonde
lady right there?
I just bet
she would love
to see this picture
you drew.
That's pretty, honey.
Is it for me?
Yes.
Aw! Come here.
Gee, i'm
terribly sorry.
Oh, that's ok.
She's a doll.
How old is she?
3.
Let me get her
off your hands here.
Come on, Chloe.
Let's not bother
these nice people.
Oh, she is no bother.
I love kids.
Well, she's for rent.
She's got your eyes.
Don't let her father
hear you say that.
She's not yours?
No. I wish she were.
Is there any reason why we can't
have dinner Saturday night?
I don't even
know your name.
Erin. Erin Cooper.
Taylor.
Taylor worth.
Dinner will be fine.
Great.
Andre's, 7:00?
Ok.
See you, guys.
You feel free to make
the other two a challenge.
Well, so much
for the bet.
Child: How come you
can't get this point?
Maybe it's because you
don't know how to play.
Well, I don't know
why you don't like him.
Claire,
he was fluff.
His idol was
Geraldo Rivera.
Well, Veronica,
what did you see in him
in the first place?
He was the first guy
I dated in ages
who didn't own a VCR,
shop Brooks brothers,
or drive a BMW.
You just described ned.
What's different? You
and ned became yuppies?
Please don't tell ned that.
When I first met ned,
he had hair down to here
and he was growing
marijuana in the closet.
Ned?
Yeah, my ned.
Whatever happened
to Randy?
Ha ha! Gone!
He got way too
serious too fast.
I tell you,
the harder they push,
the bigger the flaws.
You and ned were lucky
to get married so early.
I know I was lucky.
Although sometimes
I wish I could just...
What?
Sometimes I wish
I could just...
There I said it!
Well, who doesn't?
Who are these men?
Who are these men?
Who are these men?
Veronica?
You're out of your mind.
Number 2 is a friend
of Claire's.
She's a musician.
You can't be serious.
This is exactly
the type of place
she can't stand.
These are exactly
the kind of people
she hates.
Hi.
And you're
one of them.
No. You can
count me out.
This bet's
totally absurd.
You should have thought
of that yesterday.
Afraid you'll lose?
Ned, have you considered
how this is going to affect
other people's lives?
My life, for example.
It won't
change that much.
You can come visit us
at the cabin anytime.
$50 Nassau.
10 for birdies.
The sandies
are greenies.
I feel lucky today.
So?
Sign.
Forget it.
Oh, so you're
chickening out?
Don't push me.
You're reneging
on our agreement.
Am I to understand
that your handshake
means nothing?
It's time to teach
this guy a lesson.
Don't you want to
know who Eleanor is?
Come on, aren't you
just a little bit curious
about number 3?
I am trying
to play golf here.
She's right over there.
Eleanor larimore.
You're going
to love her.
She's classy.
She's beautiful.
She's an alien,
right?
No. She's a human.
All 3 women are humans.
I have a heart.
She's married.
You're not playing
fair today, ned.
It's a bad marriage.
It's a bad marriage.
Trust me.
No. No, I don't.
I never have.
That doesn't matter.
I always win anyway.
You did read
the fine print, didn't you?
Because
I have to admit,
you're being
a great sport about this.
How will I know that
they accept your proposals?
Videotapes.
Weatherman: We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure--
We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure front
sweeping down--
We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure front
sweeping down--
sweeping down
from the north.
Sweeping down from--
I'm a perfectionist.
Hey, I don't try
to be this way,
and it's really rough
on the women I know.
It's like there's
this critic on my shoulder.
Trouble-shooter, really.
Example--
say she's a cat lover.
All I hear
is him screaming,
"say goodbye
to Navy blue."
Hey, don't get me wrong.
I don't want to
grow old alone.
I love kids.
I certainly love women,
but I'm no Casanova.
I'm just trying
to find a woman
to get past
the critic in me.
My housekeeper--
great cook.
Who knows?
Maybe one of ned's choices
might be the perfect woman.
Wouldn't it be great
if it was the blonde?
Good evening, sir.
Thanks.
Ok. Here we are.
Saturday evening, 7:00.
I've given Erin
a lot of thought...
But mostly about strategy.
I can't touch her
because if I touch her,
I'll jump her,
and if I jump her,
I'll lose her.
Every man wants to jump her,
so I've got to be different.
Erin.
Taylor.
This bet's
going to kill me.
Let's get you
back in your coat.
We're going on a picnic.
They flooded the zone.
Kosar threw underneath
the coverage to newsome.
Sciarra totally
wimped out!
Sciarra's my main man!
Sciarra tackles
like he's putting
his grandma to bed.
Oh, no!
Look, you may be
the eagles' receptionist--
yay, team!
But that does not mean
you know a good tackle
when you see one.
I not only know one,
I can do one.
Right!
Right.
Ok.
Come at me.
Come at me.
No. I believe you.
No, you don't.
Let me have it.
Come on.
Come on,
come at me.
Erin, really,
I don't want to hurt you.
Aah!
Aah! Ugh!
I think I'm in love.
See?
You call the plays.
Good-bye, Bryan.
See you next week.
Ned: See you
tomorrow, Lewis.
How are you today,
young fella?
Pow!
How's the bad seed?
We're making progress.
I still think you
oughta send him through
a metal detector
before you see him.
Mmm. Honey, can I
ask you a question?
Of course.
Why are you fixing
Veronica up with Taylor?
Who are you mad at?
I'm not mad at anyone.
Honey, Veronica
is a talented,
highly respected
concert pianist.
She's going to hate him.
He's going to hate her.
She's not nearly
vapid enough.
No, Claire.
As his best friend
and as an expert
on the human mind,
I think it's in
his best interests
to have an atypical
congregation
with a member
of the opposite sex.
You are pissed at him.
Yeah.
Anchorwoman:
The Philadelphia SWAT team
was still surrounding
a downtown jewelry store.
4 gunmen
had taken hostages.
As far as we know,
no one has been harmed,
and negotiations
are in progress.
The police said...
Where's Taylor worth?
Over there. Has been
for the past 2 years.
Novelist Ann Travers
died today
in a freak skiing accident
in Chile.
She had broken her leg
on the slopes
and was being transported
to safety
when the rescuers
lost control of her stretcher.
Miss Travers plummeted
1,500 feet to her death.
She's best remembered
for her 1979 novel
aren't I the lucky one?
And now, Taylor worth
with the weekend weather.
Ann Travers... A woman
whose luck ran out.
Let's see... How'd I do
yesterday?
Did rain last night. Ha.
Got that right.
It's still unseasonably cold
here on the east coast,
but I've been
saying that for days.
Uh-oh! Hurricane Brenda.
Yeah, right down there
in Florida.
Came ashore--woosh!
You want to talk rain!
They had to cancel
the eagles-dolphins game.
And I said
it was going to
stay out there
in the ocean somewhere,
so the joke's on me.
Here in
your tri-state area,
we have clear air quality
tomorrow in the Delaware valley.
Well, Cory, what have you
got on for the weekend?
I'm going to
the country, Taylor.
There you have it.
Cory chu,
outstanding in her field.
That's the news.
For Bob mayon
and Taylor worth,
I'm Cory chu.
Good night.
And we're clear.
Everybody have
a nice weekend.
You have a good
weekend, Jerry.
Good night, cookie.
Great show, Taylor!
Thanks, Paul.
Have a good
weekend, Irv.
Are you at least
a meteorologist?
This must be...
Veronica?
You just say
the weather?
It's harder
than you think.
It would have to be.
Look, Taylor.
I'm going to save us
both some time,
and for you,
a few bucks.
I'd like to give you
a little test of mine
to see if we're
psychologically compatible.
Shoot.
Imagine this.
You walk into a room.
You see a hole
in the floor.
You walk up to it
and look in.
What do you see?
A meteorologist.
Reliable
birth-control devices?
Perfect.
Thank you very much.
Good luck and goodbye.
Imagine this.
You walk into a studio.
You meet a guy.
You talk to him
for a couple seconds.
What do you see?
A man who reads
the weather
wearing a lot
of makeup.
Yeah. Doesn't that pique
your curiosity at all?
I mean, aren't you
saying to yourself,
"I wonder if
he wears more makeup
in the evenings"?
Let me take you
to dinner,
you can find out
for yourself.
I'll call you.
I've got your number.
742 minus 619...
123.
487 minus 356...
131.
663 minus 421.
142.
Maybe on Mars.
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha!
A woman with all this
should look
happier than that.
Ha ha ha ha!
It really
doesn't matter.
It really doesn't matter
what shoe you choose.
Any shoe would look good
at the end of your leg.
Maybe I can help you
make a decision.
Walk over there.
Let me take a look.
I really
can't tell anything
unless you stand up.
Nice.
How about
something like...
This?
No.
Please.
Allow me.
No...
How does that feel?
Fine.
Please.
Come with me.
How about...
This?
Try it on... For me.
Hmm.
Eleanor:
I can't come out.
It may take a while,
but Eleanor's
going to blossom.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Recording: This is Taylor worth.
Talk to me.
Woman: Hi, Taylor. It's leanne.
Hope you're having a good time
with your foster child.
Give me a call when
Kim su goes back to Korea.
You big softy.
Kim su.
She sounded hot!
Oh, she is.
What am I supposed
to do about it?
Between being
the perfect gentleman
every night with Erin
d the perfect stud
every day with Eleanor,
who has the time?
In or out?
Look, I'll be worried
when I see 3 tapes
with 3 proposals
and 3 yeses.
By then,
it'll be too late.
You'll have lost
Claire's Picasso.
Your marriage
will be destroyed.
Ned, look.
I'm your best friend.
You just say the word,
we can call off
this whole stupid bet.
Raise ya 5.
3 yeses, Taylor, and you
only got 2 months left.
Veronica will call.
So?
I see you 5.
I raise you 5.
Ned: Oh, shit,
it's Claire!
I... will...
See you.
Recording: This is
Taylor Worth. Talk to me.
Taylor, this is
Veronica briskow.
Ned and Claire are coming
to dinner tomorrow night.
Why don't you join us?
My number is 555-3299.
Bye.
Ned: Shit!
Oh, and, ned? Go home.
Double shit!
No, no, no, no, no.
It's legato. Legato!
Don't you understand?
Legato.
Here. Listen to it
again.
I've already listened to it 3 times.
Hmm?
No.
I don't know what
legato is.
Sounds like a boat race.
Boat race. Ha ha ha.
Taylor hates music.
Well, why don't you tell us
what legato means?
Nice sweater,
Taylor.
It's very
Brooks brothers.
Oh. Are you still
having trouble
with your BMW?
I can name that segue
in 5 words.
Name that segue.
Sweater. Cold.
Alps. Germany.
BMW.
BMW.
So... what did
your manager say
about the rehab center
benefit?
He hates it when I play
for free, but I'll do it.
Oh, great. Thank you!
I mean, if I can't play
for 15 minutes
to keep a bunch
of drugged-out teenagers
from stealing my car,
what kind
of citizen am I?
Yeah. A real
philanthropist.
No. I leave that
to Claire.
Mmm.
My tombstone's going to read,
"what's in it for me?"
Nothing, if you
marry Taylor.
Let's eat!
Taylor, you come join me
in the kitchen.
Claire, check ned's pockets
for hallucinogens.
If you can't speak English
with the rest of us,
I'm going to have to
send you home.
Mm-hmm. Come on.
I want to see
Taylor's reaction
when he sees
the painting.
You mean, you didn't
tell him about the painting?
No.
Ha ha ha. Let's go.
Why do you ask?
Just curious.
I can't stand
that term "new age."
I was doing it long before
it was ever called that.
I had a classical
background--
oberlin, Juilliard, the
whole competition circuit,
but it was basically
too rigid for me.
I mean, I really hate
that kind of stuff.
Remember the critic
that sits on my shoulder?
Well,
he just passed out.
I mean, what the hell
am I supposed to do?
This must be another one
of her psychological tests.
I tell you, if I hadn't
signed that damn contract,
I wouldn't put up with
this crap for a minute.
I thought the hole
in the floor was hard.
So the rest is history.
I'm having a little
trouble concentrating
on what you're saying.
So could you just
shut up?
Taylor!
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha!
Thank you so much.
Oh, I'm glad
you came.
How about a game
of monopoly?
Ned,
I'm a little beat.
Ned, turn around
and walk out.
Come on, Taylor.
Let's let the girl
get to bed.
Now!
Bye, ned.
Bye.
Oh, you know what--
Come on, Taylor.
Let the girl get to bed.
Um!
How about this?
Does that feel good?
It's fine. You're
crushing my bone.
Sorry.
That's ok.
Aah!
Oh!
I've had better times
taking out splinters.
I wish it was yesterday.
Hey, it happens.
There wouldn't be great sex
if we didn't have
awful sex.
Awful...
Mechanical...
Slightly painful...
Unsatisfying sex.
I'm going to
hop in the shower!
Could you let
yourself out, please?
Sure.
I love my lingerie.
Uh, Eleanor...
What do you say,
next time we just talk?
Why?
I don't know.
Romance?
I get to know you,
you get to know me.
I think we're getting to
know each other just fine.
Ahem.
Oh! Would you give me
a special signal
on the show tonight?
When you rub your nose,
it means you wish...
Thank god
it was just my nose.
Dinner at Erin's
will be a welcome change.
You know, I thought
I'd find you here.
I'm only going to
say this once.
Erin is a flower,
a rare and beautiful
flower.
And I don't know what she sees in a guy like you.
But if you mess with her
or lay a hand on her,
I'll rip your head off.
Seems reasonable.
Terry!
So glad you dropped by.
Can you stay for coffee?
Put Taylor down. He
doesn't know you're kidding.
Ha ha ha ha!
Oh, I get it now!
Uhh!
I'll be
in the living room.
Did you like him?
Isn't he great?
Yeah.
He seems very nice.
Oh, he is.
He's smart
and sophisticated
and really considerate.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
He won't even start
the car
unless we put on
our seat belts!
What a guy.
I've never gone out
with someone for a month
who didn't make a pass.
I never made a pass.
You're my friend,
silly.
It doesn't count.
See you, Terry!

Would you do

Anything.
On your show,

Taylor Worth. What's
happening, honey?
Oh, not much.
She left this, too.
Thank you.
It's good.
Ambivalence
I can work with.
Hate takes longer.
What are you
doing here?
Shh!
Guess who's
the head fund raiser
for the rehab center.
Hmm.
Come here.
Come here.
See ya.
Hi.
God, Eleanor, please.
Not here.
Oh, yes, here.
In the lobby.
In the middle
of the street.
In the cereal aisle
at the a&p.
Tell me
you're dying for it.
Tell me i'm
dying for it.
Tell me I'm the best.
You're the best.
Tell me I'm better
than the best.
You're better than
the best--ohh!
Bravo!
Bravo!
I haven't
had much chance
to get to know
your wife,
but she seems
like a real gem.
Yes.
I don't know
if I mentioned it,
but i'm
a psychiatrist.
Sometimes I can tell
a great marriage
when I see one.
It seems to me
that you guys have
a really strong,
close, good one,
am I right?
Taylor! Taylor!
Where are you running to?
Taylor?
Taylor Worth?
The weatherman?
That's right.
I love your reports!
You give the most
thoroughly detailed
weather reports!
I know.
Weather's
a hobby of mine.
Oh.
How about that storm
last march? Aiyee!
Was that a shock
or what?
Your fly is open.
Quite a shock.
And that flash flood
in Nebraska last may?
Whoosh!
How can she stand him?
Your fly is open.
Oh, honey!
Honey, look.
Taylor Worth.
Oh.
How do you do?
Your fly is open!
Well, it doesn't
make me deaf!
Uh, excuse me.
Got to run.
11:00 news.
You played beautifully.
Thank you.
Do you know
what time it is?
I know you just played for 2 hours,
but may I come in?
Just so you know
why I'm mad,
I hate it when my friends
run out of my concerts
without telling me
how wonderful I am,
and I really hate it
when guys come by here
unannounced
thinking it means
that I have to let them in.
How many you let
in there so far?
Imagine what she's
going to do to me
when I call off
our wedding.
Look, you got to admit
you sent me some
pretty mixed signals.
I mean,
"here's your watch
ecause I never want
to see you again,
"but here's a ticket
because
I want you to see
what you're missing."
Well, I saw, ok?
And you're magnificent.
I can't wait
to hear you again.
Call me.
Hello?
Veronica Briskow?
Yes.
Hi. It's Taylor Worth.
I know this seems silly,
but I can't help it.
It's such a pretty movie.
Enjoy the show!
I haven't seen it
since I was a little girl.
Really?
I've never seen it.
You haven't?
No. 2 please.
Wait till you see dopey.
He's the most adorable thing.
Hey, that's why
I'm here. Thanks.
Actually,
I had a different
sort
of day planned,
one that ends
in a proposal.
Hello.
Maybe if I toss in
a honeymoon
at Disneyland.
Come on!
It's so very beautiful.
They're so much in love.
What are you doing?
Filming our own
happy ending.
Can you move
a little to the left?
Whoa! Whoa.
Right there.
That's perfect.
Erin.
Taylor.
Erin, I think you
already know
what I'm going to
ask you.
And this may seem
inappropriate
because I haven't
known you very long,
but, Erin...
Taylor.
Dear Erin...
Will you marry me?
Oh.
Ohh!
I take it
that's a yes?
Can I hear
the word, please?
Can I hear that
precious word?
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
Take me, Taylor.
Oh, wild horses
couldn't stop me.
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm!
Ow! What?
Oh. Sorry.
Ned. Ned.
Not only am I 1/3 of the way
to teaching you a lesson,
but tonight, I will be
lying with the gods.
Erin,
I want you to know,
there is no one
I would rather be with
and nothing I would
rather be doing.
Mmm! Mmm!
Oh!
I'm so glad
I waited.
Oh, yeah.
I'm glad
we waited, too.
No. I'm so glad
I waited.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm glad that we waited, too.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
No, Taylor.
I'm so glad
I waited.
What?
Erin, I know this is
our first time, darling,
but you're not saying,
are you...
That this is
your first time?
Yes.
Ohh.
Mmm.
Taylor,
don't be upset.
I know it's not
your first time.
It's different
for men.
Oh, Erin, Erin, Erin.
You are very special.
You are. You are.
And--and--and you've waited
such a long time.
I want this
to be right for you.
Let's wait. Ok?
Let's wait till
after the wedding.
Are you sure?
Right now,
more than anything,
I want you
inside me,
to finally know
what it feels like.
Oh, god.
I'm sure.
You are so good at looking
at the big picture.
Oh, yeah. I'm looking
at the big picture.
Mmm!
What?
I'm not a monster.
Can I hear
the word, please?
Can I hear that
precious word?
Oh! Oh!
Oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
Take me, Taylor.
Oh, yeah.
Wild horses
couldn't stop me.
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Ow! What?
Oh, sorry.
Ned, ned.
Not only am I
1/3 of the way
to teaching you
a lesson
and winning
this bet,
but tonight,
I will be lying
with the gods.
[TV static]
I'll buy.
It's my idea.
Forget it.
I've been trying to
take you out for
a month. 2, please.
Thanks.
Guess it's the hot
ticket in town.
Hey!
Shh! Quiet!
Shh! Shh!
Mmm!
This is better than
primal therapy.
It's more cathartic.
Care for a drink?
We have Mai Tai
or Tequila sunrise.
♪ La da da da ♪
whoa, whoa, ho!
No, no. What did you
really think of the movie?
I thought it was great.
I'd love to lie there
till the right woman
came along.
You don't get it,
do you?
She leaves
everything behind--
her home, her little friends,
and for what?
For some handsome prince!
The whole ending
implies
that a woman needs a man
to bring her to life!
Veronica,
it is not real life!
It's a fairy tale!
Come on!
I mean, did you ever
read the frog prince?
In that one,
he stayed a frog
until she kissed him
and brought him
back to life.
Yeah, well, I've kissed
a lot of frogs,
and I haven't
met a prince yet.
U've been kissing
the wrong frogs.
It's hard to find
the right person.
It's a search,
a process.
I don't think it's
supposed to be easy.
Well, maybe
I misjudged you, Taylor.
Up until now,
I thought of you as just
a pleasant diversion,
but maybe there's
a well of compassion
and sensitivity in you.
Really?
Not a deep well.
More like a bucket
or a toy pail.
You can stop before
you get to Dixie cup.
You know, some say you
have to kiss a frog twice.
Oh, why did you ever
come into my life?
To make you happy.
To hold you
in my arms forever.
I'll never be able to
look my father in the face.
Look, let's get away--
let's get married immediately,
right away, tonight.
You mean elope?
That's what I mean.
But where would we go?
Guess what?
This Veronica?
She's real easy
to be with,
once she stops
busting your balls.
♪ Da da da da ♪
after she agrees
to marry me,
I'm going to
keep dating her.

And whenever
a young man--
and there have been
very nice ones--
hey! Hey!
I thought
we made a deal.
Whoever makes breakfast
gets to pick the station.
It's halftime,
and I don't care
what deal we struck.
I'm not watching
the eaglettes

Oh, come on. That's
their best one.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Ahh.
Announcer: I, myself,
have played here.
Ah. I admire
those women.
That's because their job
is more difficult than yours.
What in the world
is going on down there?
Looks like
the eagles cheerleaders
are unrolling a banner
or something.
"Congratulations
Erin and tay--"
Mmm!
Hello, miss Briskow?
This is Eleanor larimore
confirming the luncheon
tomorrow.
Please give me a call.
Thank you.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Bye, love buckets.
Piece of cake.
Veronica.
Hmm?
How about if tonight
I give you
a special signal
on the show,
you know, one that says
I'm thinking about you?
Oh, that's sweet,
but I watch channel 8.
That doesn't bother me.
Here in the tri-state area,
we have high winds
coming down from New York,
but we'll have
clear air quality tomorrow
in all the Delaware valley.
That's all for the weather.
Now back to
my favorite newscaster,
Cory chu,
right after this
commercial break.
And in local news,
Philadelphia city council...
Hello?
Hey, buddy.
Did you see the game?
Ned, I don't have time
to talk now.
Things are getting
a little close.
I am 15 minutes late
for a date with somebody,
and I don't even know who.
W that banner on TV.
Who knows who else did.
Hey, you know,
Veronica and Eleanor
are having lunch together.
I think this whole thing
is gonna blow up in your face.
Ned, one more thing.
Yeah, what?
This is getting ridiculous.
I've got to break up
with Erin.
Have you picked
the ushers yet?
Ushers?
No. I haven't.
Uh, see, Erin.
We have to talk.
At Teddy's tux, if you
have 6 or more ushers,
the groom gets
his tux for free.
I have a tux.
See, I didn't know that.
Erin, you're
a wonderful girl,
and I care about you
very much.
From a selfish
point of view,
I can't think
of anything
I would rather have
than you being my wife
for
the next 50 or 60--
what are these?
Swatches.
Swatches? For what?
For my dress
and the bridesmaids dresses.
What do you mean by
a selfish point of view?
I can't marry you.
What?
Look, I don't know
what I was thinking--
I guess that
we'd get married
and that
we'd be together
and we'd decide to
try to have a family.
And then we'd try
for a year or 2...
And then
we'd both be tested
and you would
realize that i'm--
you're saying
you're sterile.
Yes.
Oh, I knew
you'd understand.
Erin, you deserve
better than me.
Wait a minute.
You're saying that we'll
never have to worry
about birth control
and if we want a baby,
all I'll have to do is be
artificially inseminated.
I am sorry they won't
be yours, though.
It's not just
that I'm sterile.
See, I can't have...
An orgasm.
You mean you can just
stay hard forever?
No, goddamn it!
I mean I'm impotent!
Oh.
I understand. You
shouldn't be doomed
to a life without sex.
Now, don't rush me.
It's just a lot
to think about.
Could you give me
a couple of days?
Oh, of course.
Now, in the meantime,
which of these
do you like best
for my maid of honor?
2, please.
Thanks.
I had to bring her.
Hey.
Do you know about
our discount passbooks?
Come here!
You want it, huh?
Come on.
You be my little girl?
Oh! Yes.
Ooh! I'll be
your little girl.
Will you be my mommy?
Oh, yes!
Oh, oh,
I'll be your mommy.
Ahhh!
Will you be
my bride?
Oh! Yes!
No, no.

Yeah!
Marathon!
That's very good.
And the mouse Olympics continue.
Figure skating!
That's close.
Pair figure skating.
Very good!
And that's all.
Oh, no, no.
Do one more, please.
Please, please.
Ok. Ok. But this

This is an entirely

altogether.
AAA aaaa!
Aah!
Do it! Yes!
Ha ha ha!
Oh, I'm so happy.
Ha ha ha!
What is it?
Oh, thank you.
I haven't a clue.
Miss mouse America.
Ha ha ha!
Get out of here.
I feel great.
After today, I will
be through with this bet.
I'll have the cabin,
I'll have the Picasso,
but best of all,
I will have the girl.
I'm going to have to
write ned a thank-you note.
I'm not going to call off
the engagement with Veronica.
I'm not going to
rush it either.
A couple years
down the line
when a little Taylor
sounds like a good idea,
we'll tie the knot.
I really love this girl.
Ha ha ha!
Stop that.
Ah.
Let's sit here.
Yeah.
Ah.
Why do I have a feeling
it's time
for a serious talk?
You know me
pretty well.
See, it's just
that, um...
Aah.
Taylor,
you're nervous.
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
You're my favorite
person.
Oh, boy.
Oh, god.
Oh.
You know, all my life
I was convinced
I was responsible
for my own happiness.
I could never depend on anyone else to give it to me.
But I was wrong.
You've given it to me.
Come on.
Sit down.
Veronica,
marry me.
Marry you?
Ha ha ha!
I can't marry you.
I thought you wanted to
move in together.
I do! And have kids
and grow old.
Yeah, well, I'd want to
try it out first.
Live together for a few months,
see how we get along.
How we get along?
How we get along?
You do the mouse
Olympics with everyone?
I think there's more to marriage than mouse Olympics.
Yeah, so do I.
There's a lot more.
There's caring.
Veronica, I care
about you very much.
You make me laugh
at myself.
You know
what you have?
You have my heart.
And you know what?
I don't want you
to let go.
I want to have terrible
fights with you
and know that you're
not going anywhere.
Know that I'm not
going anywhere.
I want to pick
things out with you
and buy them!
I want a...
You know what,
I want a...
Aah!
I want a commitment!
Aah!
Make one with me.
Oh, my god.
I've been swept off my feet.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
Yes!
I want to
marry you now...
Today.
Well, how about
sometime this month?
I got to tell her
about the bet.
Pretty ironic, huh?
Same thing
that got me into this
could take it all away.
Poetic justice
doesn't feel so good.
That was nice.
We're here.
Veronica, I've done
some things in my past
I'm not proud of.
I don't want to
hear about them.
Yeah, but, see,
there's this one thing
in my very recent past,
something
I realize in retrospect
wasn't very nice.
Something that involved
a few innocent people.
Something that now
that my... Um...
Single days
are behind me,
I realize
was not very nice.
Are you planning on
doing it again?
No.
Are you a criminal?
God, no!
Then don't tell me.
There you have it.
However...
You better
marry me soon,
like before
I see your face
on the post office wall.
How about Saturday?
I have to be at Claire's
in 3 hours.
I'm meeting
that Eleanor lady.
I think I can squeeze in
a blood test.
Do me a favor.
What?
Let's wait. Tell ned
and Claire together.
You're right.
They'd probably never
believe just one of us.
Good weekend, huh?
Mmm...
Are we talking
girl in love here?
Yes, but I'm not
supposed to say
anything about it.
I promised him
I wouldn't.
Are you moving in
with him?
I can't tell you.
Are you getting married?
I'm not supposed
to tell you.
Oh, my god!
Is he a great lay?
Oh...
As a matter of fact,
he is.
Well, sold. Good.
I had a chance to marry
a great lay once,
but I didn't.
I married Howard sr.,
the richest, sweetest,
most appropriate person
I could find.
And for 12 years...
I managed to go through life
as if the rest...
Didn't matter to me.
And then I met this man.
How he ever found me,
I have no idea,
but he knew exactly
what I needed,
and he gave it to me.
And he still
gives it to me
and gives it to me
and gives it to me.
I can't think
of anything else.
Who knew?
Ha ha ha!
Enough about me.
What's your fellow like?
Oh... well.
Excuse me.
Give me it!
It's my tape!
It's mine!
What is
going on here?
She put a tape on,
and you said
we should never
do that.
I want to see
Mary poppins.
You do?
That's not
Mary poppins,
and you're going
to get a time-out.
You're going to get
a time-out, too.
Are not.
Are, too.
Are not.
Quiet, kids!
Go to your room.
Go to your room.
Erin: Taylor.
I knew we'd be
sent to our room.
Will you marry me?
Yeeea!
Is that a yes?
Can I hear
that precious word?
Oh, oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
That's my Taylor.
That's my Taylor.
Take me, Taylor.
That's her Taylor.
Ned, ned, not only am I
1/3 of the way
to teaching you a lesson
and winning this bet,
but tonight I will be
lying with the gods!
Ned.
What?
Wedding?
Wedding. St. James chapel,
2:00 Saturday.
Cigar.
Cigar?
Rocket,
you're not getting
the painting.
No tape, no painting.
Ned, I cannot believe
how immature you are being.
Do you expect me
to show you a tape
of the woman I love
accepting my proposal?
If you want
the painting.
Painting? Painting!
It's not about a painting.
It's about human beings.
It's not about
a stupid bet.
People!
I'm ashamed of that bet.
It's contemptible!
Really.
Playing with people's lives
that way.
You should all be ashamed,
especially you, ned.
Well, I never thought
you'd win.
Win?
That's not the point.
The point is,
I am out. Out!
You're serious?
Yes.
You're really
going to marry her?
Yes, I am.
Forget the bet.
Good man.
I still get my $400
though, right?
All bets are off.
What about Erin
and Eleanor?
I'll handle it.
Hey, Taylor.
How are you?
Hey, Ira.
Tracey. Thanks.
See you tomorrow.
It's Wednesday,
and everything
is working out just great.
Tomorrow, I'm going to have
one last lunch with Erin.
She'll call off the wedding
by dessert, trust me.
By Friday, Eleanor
should get this letter.
I told her it was time to put her
passion back into her marriage.
Marriage.
I'm getting married
to Veronica on Saturday.
Did you ever think it was
going to work out this well? Ha!
Hi, Taylor.
Hi.
Amy!
Do the station a favor,
and call this Eleanor back!
Thursday, 9:00 a.m.
"I want to see you."
9:15, "where are you?"
9:30, "I need you."
Et cetera, et cetera.
Here's a smart girl.
"Can't make lunch today,
how about Friday? Erin."
Man: It will be nice
to see you, too.
Thank you very much.
Hi. Worth. 1:00.
For two.
Yes. The young lady
is inside.
Ahh.
Sir, she--
Hello.
Taylor.
You can't make it?
I know we've got
a lot to talk about.
You said you'd make
your decision by now.
No, I can't wait
till next week.
It's got to be tomorrow
in the morning.
Uh, fine, fine.
Your house, 11:00.
Yeah, yeah,
thank you. Bye.
Hi, Taylor.
Where are you?
Why haven't you
called me?
You've been
very naughty.
Mommy's going to
have to punish you.
Hi.
Hello, Taylor.
I've made
my decision.
Whatever it is,
I'll understand.
Come on in.
I may have time for a haircut
before the wedding.
Surprise!
Surprise!
Mom and dad,
this is Taylor.
Son.
Mom: Oh, Taylor.
Erin, can I talk
to you for a minute?
Not right now.
Where is that party mix?
Welcome to
the family, son.
Hey, hi! I'm chip,
brother of the bride.
Oh, don't worry
about that.
You'll have plenty
of time
for talking
after you're married...
Like on your
wedding night.
Ha ha ha!
God, I love Erin.
She's my favorite niece.
You know,
it's just like her
to find somebody
like you to marry.
I mean, what a heart
on that girl.
Always bringing home
some limping puppy
or bird
with a broken wing.
Erin, Erin,
can I talk to you?
Have you tried
the stamp test?
The what?
The stamp test.
You take
a few stamps from a roll,
enough to circle your penis.
I'd say in your case...
About 5.
Put them on
before you go to bed.
Overlap them just enough
so you can lick one
to make them stick.
Now, if they break off
during the night,
your problem is up here.
You want to know why?
Why?
Erin!
You don't
have to yell, honey.
I'm right here.
Erin, how could
you tell everyone?
Huh?
This was supposed to
be personal.
Honey, I just talked
about it with my family
and some of the guys
on the team.
Some of the guys
on the team!
And the coach.
The coach!
Damn it, Erin!
They all seem to agree
that after the first
year of marriage,
sex isn't
that important.
Sex is the cornerstone
of intimacy.
Intimacy, schmintimacy.
I got a hunch
about you, Taylor.
I think your problem's
just with women.
I know you would
look good in Rose,
but Lillian would
look awful, you know.
We're not
getting married.
Erin, I can't
marry you.
You can, and you will.
I want to propose
a toast.
A toast!
Hey! Right!
No, stay there,
son. Today...
Is the happiest day
of my life.
My little girl's engaged.
She's got herself
a wonderful guy.
Of course, I'd be
a little happier
if he could function
as a real man,
but even so, it's
the happiest day of my life.
Hip hip!
Hooray!

Oh!
Hi, honey.
You're home.
Yeah. I'm home.
Where are you?
I'm home, too.
I know what's
bothering you.
No. No, you don't.
Sex.
No.
You're afraid
it's going to be routine
now that
we're living together.
It won't be.
I promise.
Look!
Oh!
Jesus!
Let's party.
Aah!
It's been
a really bad day.
You probably think
I deserve this, don't you?
Go ahead. Say it.
Who are you
talking to?
Aah!
Can you wash
my back?
Hey!
Hey, taxi!
Taylor! Need a ride
to the wedding?
Yes!
I'm just going to drop
these kids off, ok?
Mommy,
Jason hit me!
Tell Jason
you don't like it.
Jason,
I don't like it!
I don't like it!
Good.
Claire, can you
drop me off first?
Hi, Taylor! Hi, Taylor!
We're off!
Claire,
did you hear me?
Hey, pirate. Could you move
your ice cream a little?
Marvin dropped his
ice cream on Taylor.
Mommy,
I lost my balloon.
Can we stop?
No!
Sure we can,
sweetie.
The wedding was supposed
to start 5 minutes ago.
Taylor, they're not going to
start without you!
Left. Left!
Claire, left!
Turn left!
Whoa!
Relax! There's
nothing to worry about!
Oh, I'm getting carsick.
Now, that's something
to worry about.
Jason's
throwing up on me.
Tell Jason
you don't like it.
None of us likes it.
I have to get
to the wedding!
Stop the car!
You're so on edge!
Take a valium!
What's a valium?
It's like a nap.
Oh.
Bye, Taylor!
Bye, Taylor!
Bye, Taylor!
Oh, there he is.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the groom.
Where
have you been?
It's 31 flavors.
You look disgusting!
Here. Come on.
Let's get a shot here.
That's nice.
That's good.
Come on.
Get up there.
Go! Go!
God...
I can't believe it.
I'm walking down the aisle.
Hi.
Seeing you right now
made me realize something.
Deep down inside,
I didn't think you'd be here.
Thank you
for being here.
Let's get married.
Shall we begin now?
Yes.
Every couple
has its own story.
It's been my observation that
the more interesting the story,
the better the marriage,
and it looks to me
like Taylor and Veronica
are going to have
a wonderful marriage.
All of us
are gathered here today
to witness and support
that union.
Taylor worth,
do you take Veronica briskow
to be
your lawfully wedded wife,
to have and to hold,
for better
or for worse,
in sickness
and in health,
to love
and to Cherish
from this day forward,
till death do you part?
I do.
Veronica briskow,
do you take Taylor worth
to be your
lawfully wedded husband,
for better
or for worse,
in sickness
and in health,
to love and to Cherish
from this day forward,
till death do you part?
I'd never marry him.
And you
can bet on it!
Taylor...
Did she say
she was going to marry you?
And you believed it.
This was a setup.
I don't know.
I don't know
anything about this.
Ned.
Oh, god.
Claire...
Claire!
Claire? Claire?
Veronica... marry me.
I can't marry you. I thought
you wanted to move in together.
I do! And have kids
and grow old.
Ha ha ha!
I'd want to
try it out first,
live together
for a few months,
see how we get along.
How we get along?
How we get along?
Go away.
You do the mouse Olympics
with everyone?
There's more to marriage
than mouse Olympics.
Yeah, so do I.
There's a lot more.
I said, go away!
There's caring.
Veronica, I care
about you very much.
Aw, the hell with it.
You know what you have?
You have my heart.
You know what?
I don't want you to let go.
I want to have
terrible fights with you--
yeah?
Ned: It's me.
Go away.
Are you going to lock yourself in there another month?
I am not home, ned.
I've seen her.
Know that I'm not
going anywhere.
I want to pick things out
with you and buy them.
What'd she say?
She mention me?
Did she talk about it?
Huh?
Actually, I just watched
her get into Claire's car.
I want a...
You know, I want a...
Aah!
I want a commitment!
Aah!
Make one with me.
Oh, my god.
I've been swept
off my feet.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
Yes--
Give me that tape.
No.
Give me the tape!
I insist you get
professional help.
These are classic signs
of depression.
Furthermore...
No! Give me the tape!
No!
No!
Yes, ned! Stop!
Uh!
Aaaoooh!
Oh!
What?
What?
No! Let me go!
That's my bad ankle.
Ohh!
Ohh!
Uh!
Ohh!
Ohh!
Don't be an asshole.
There's
a real Veronica out there.
Who hates me.
You don't know that.
Ned...
I proposed to her
to win a bet.
Yeah.
That's pretty fucked.
It was your idea!
Well, yeah...
I'm sorry.
I just thought it would
be a good idea
for you to suffer.
Yeah? Well, here it is.
Take a good look.
Hope you're happy.
You hate me,
don't you?
You hate me.
No.
But you have
every right to.
But I assume,
since I'm not out
there on the street
with that tape, that
you've forgiven me.
Am I right?
Well?
Maybe Veronica could
do the same with you.
I think it's different
between a man and a woman.
Not as different
as you think.
Maybe that's been
part of your problem.
Did Claire forgive you?
Yes...
But I had to ask.
Well...
Beg, actually.
Beg.
Thanks.
Well, our next item
comes from our great
football team, the eagles.
Of course,
they're great now.
For those of you
who grew up here as I did,
you remember what they
used to be like.
They were
in last place so many years,
we used to read the sports
page upside-down
just to feel
what it'd be like
to see our team
in first place.
Well, we have here
a great item.
It's a Jersey
worn by our very own
Terry Childs here.
Yay!
Now, who's going to
start the bidding
on this Jersey?
$200.
Come on! The man
sacked elway twice
wearing this very Jersey!
Let's go!
$300.
Sold for $300!
Well, our next item
for auction
has to be the special one
of the evening,
and I expect the biggest
response to this one.
We all enjoyed miss briskow's
playing earlier this evening.
Well, she has
graciously donated
to the highest bidder
an evening performance
at a private party.
How's that?
Miss briskow,
would you come up?
Come on up.
Takes a lot of guts.
I'd never do my act
in a house.
See me at the kitchen--
"please don't eat that.
I have a chicken joke.
It's great.
Put down your sandwich."
Ok., now. Let's open up
the bidding at $200.
$200.
$400.
600.
6. Do I hear 7?
$1,000.
Woo! $1,000.
Going once,
going twice...
$2,000.
I heard $2,000.
2,200.
3,000.
3,200.
3,200.
Going once...
Going twice.
$4,000
and a fishing cabin.
A fishing cabin?
Taylor?
Look! It's our very own
channel 5 weatherman--
Taylor worth!
Look!
Ok!
Uh...
Do I hear 4,200?
4,200.
4,200.
Ok. Going once...
Oh...
Going twice...
Not so fast, David.
$4,200,
a fishing cabin,
and a public proclamation
of what a creep he is.
Ooh!
I'm a creep.
I'm a bastard.
He's a great
lay.
I knew it!
I don't deserve you,
I know that,
but I can't imagine
not loving you.
You're bold,
you're splendid,
you're intriguing.
You're a whole lot of things
I never knew mattered.
Oh! Oh!
Veronica...
Veronica...
Save me.
I beg you.
Marry me.
Is that all?
And a scrabble rematch.
Unlimited mouse Olympics?
I'll even become
a meteorologist.
Then kiss me!
Ohh! Ohh!
Sold for $4,200,
a fishing cabin,
a public proclamation
of what a creep he is,
a scrabble rematch,
unlimited mouse Olympics,
he'll become a meteorologist,
and a kiss.

a fine animal!
Oh, yeah.
Great stud, I bet.
Now, the real advantage
of being here today
at Atlantic city racecourse
to bring you the weather
is that we've got
the real thing.
No boards, no mats,
no pretty computer graphics.
Uh-uh. The real thing.
We got the real sun,
as I predicted.
We've got
the real blue skies,

Heck,
we even got real horses,

And speaking
of predictions,
hey, we even got
a real winner.
Ooh!
This is Taylor worth,
channel 5 news,

10, 20, 5, 50.
Number 7,
moving marcelle, to show.
Come on, ned,
at least bet him to win.
Thank you.
Hi. $40, number 3,
my Charlie's angel,
to win, please.
Thank you.
My gambling fund's
a little low.
Gambling fund?
Gambling fund?
Yes.
Ned, what
happened to you?
What happened
to the kid
who bet his father's
golf clubs
on Cindy brownell's
bra size?
Hey, remember when I bet
my scholarship money
you'd flunk out
before midterms?
Yeah. What happened?
Daddy. Daddy. Daddy.
I settled down.
Come on, pumpkin.
Ned's actually
a terrific guy,
except he's lost his edge.
When we were 11,
he decided
we should get mohawks.
I shaved my head.
He laughed for a month.
You see this 50?
And you see that 50?
Yeah.
They're not the same.
They're not?
No. This is 3 days
of nursery school to me.
And what's that?
Champagne for 2?
Silk panties for Mona.
Mona?
Do I know Mona?
No. I haven't
mentioned her.
You're buying
silk panties for a girl
you haven't even
mentioned to me?
Ned, it's not important.
Don't worry about it.
There is no Mona.
Taylor?
Lizbette.
Don't sweet-talk me.
How are you?
How should I be?
You asked Wendy out,
my own roommate.
I know. You work
Tuesday nights.
Don't touch me.
She said no.
Well, of course
she did.
See?
No harm done.
He is my hero.
A hero should
accomplish something.
I mean, what has
Taylor accomplished?
We are happily
married men.
With curfews.
Yeah. I'd rather
be like Taylor.
Taylor doesn't know it yet,
but he'd rather be like us.
You should see him
with my family.
He really soaks it up.
Now, that's what
he really wants.
He just doesn't
know it yet.
Hey, I'm a shrink.
I know these things, right?
I'm worried about him.
Did you get
a load of her legs?
Yes.
Don't you understand?
He is dumping her!
Taylor is stuck in
a very destructive pattern.
They hit the 2-month Mark,
and he is running.
It's classic.
Reject them
before they reject you.
No. No woman is ever
going to reject Taylor.
That's too bad, because
that's what he really needs.
Well, that's what
every man really needs.
Without suffering,
you don't grow.
Forget it.
It'll never happen.
If only there was something
I could do for him.
If only I could pick
Taylor's next woman,
you know, someone
who will dump him first.
Someone who'll give him
the gift of heartache.
Someone with pms.
No. Someone
who's looking for
more in a man
than good looks.
And a great
sense of humor.
And a 6-figure income.
And glamorous job.
Yeah, but more than that.
Someone who'll torture him,
turn him inside out,
hurt him,
you know, like love.
Forget it.
She's not out there.
I bet I could find her.
I bet you couldn't.
I bet he could.
I got 10 bucks
says no way.
You're on.
You in, ned?
You are both
missing my point.
Taylor would
have to cooperate.
Oh, no. He'll want
in on this.
It's got to be bigger.
Bigger? 2 women.
10 women.
11 women.
That's not going to
cut it anymore.
You're going to
have to--
I know.
Stop seeing you.
Taylor.
Lizbette, I'm not
good enough for you.
You've made some
very valid points.
I ought to be able to
make a commitment by now.
Taylor, let's say
I never came here today.
No. No.
Let's just
forget everything.
No. Listen to me.
Your instincts are sound.
It's time to move on.
Lizbette,
I just don't think
it can be together.
Well, what am I
supposed to do?
You?
Soar.
Race announcer:
Ladies and gentlemen,
the horses are
parading to the post
for the next race
of the afternoon.
What?
We've got
a proposition for you.
You have 3 months
to get engaged
to 3 woman,
and I pick the women.
You're insane.
Chloe,
that's pretty.
Now, this is the dumbest one
they've ever come up with.
They're always trying to rope me
in on some stupid bet.
Then when
I take them up on it,
they drop like flies.
Watch.
What are
the stakes?
Your fishing cabin
against my Mercedes.
No. No, see,
I already have a car.
I want something else.
Name it.
I love
torturing him.
The Picasso.
The Picasso!
It's an original.
I can't bet that.
Fine. No bet.
It's Claire's.
Her grandfather
left it to her.
So?
You're on.
You're kidding!
This is for
your own good.
Announcer: It's moving marcelle
in a charging start,
with boo-boo,
Rachel's ride, and....
Boys, sorry
I missed the game.
That's ok.
Did you cripple
another quarterback?
Yeah. 2.
Bachelorette number 1.
Ice goddess!
I got 20
says he can't
even get a date.
40 says he can.
Guys, a beautiful
woman is one
of the loneliest creatures
on the face of the earth.
All I need is an opening,
a ticket of admission.
Bet. Bet.
Ned: No. No, Chloe.
Horsey. Horsey.
Chloe, do you see
that pretty blonde
lady right there?
I just bet
she would love
to see this picture
you drew.
That's pretty, honey.
Is it for me?
Yes.
Aw! Come here.
Gee, i'm
terribly sorry.
Oh, that's ok.
She's a doll.
How old is she?
3.
Let me get her
off your hands here.
Come on, Chloe.
Let's not bother
these nice people.
Oh, she is no bother.
I love kids.
Well, she's for rent.
She's got your eyes.
Don't let her father
hear you say that.
She's not yours?
No. I wish she were.
Is there any reason why we can't
have dinner Saturday night?
I don't even
know your name.
Erin. Erin Cooper.
Taylor.
Taylor worth.
Dinner will be fine.
Great.
Andre's, 7:00?
Ok.
See you, guys.
You feel free to make
the other two a challenge.
Well, so much
for the bet.
Child: How come you
can't get this point?
Maybe it's because you
don't know how to play.
Well, I don't know
why you don't like him.
Claire,
he was fluff.
His idol was
Geraldo Rivera.
Well, Veronica,
what did you see in him
in the first place?
He was the first guy
I dated in ages
who didn't own a VCR,
shop Brooks brothers,
or drive a BMW.
You just described ned.
What's different? You
and ned became yuppies?
Please don't tell ned that.
When I first met ned,
he had hair down to here
and he was growing
marijuana in the closet.
Ned?
Yeah, my ned.
Whatever happened
to Randy?
Ha ha! Gone!
He got way too
serious too fast.
I tell you,
the harder they push,
the bigger the flaws.
You and ned were lucky
to get married so early.
I know I was lucky.
Although sometimes
I wish I could just...
What?
Sometimes I wish
I could just...
There I said it!
Well, who doesn't?
Who are these men?
Who are these men?
Who are these men?
Veronica?
You're out of your mind.
Number 2 is a friend
of Claire's.
She's a musician.
You can't be serious.
This is exactly
the type of place
she can't stand.
These are exactly
the kind of people
she hates.
Hi.
And you're
one of them.
No. You can
count me out.
This bet's
totally absurd.
You should have thought
of that yesterday.
Afraid you'll lose?
Ned, have you considered
how this is going to affect
other people's lives?
My life, for example.
It won't
change that much.
You can come visit us
at the cabin anytime.
$50 Nassau.
10 for birdies.
The sandies
are greenies.
I feel lucky today.
So?
Sign.
Forget it.
Oh, so you're
chickening out?
Don't push me.
You're reneging
on our agreement.
Am I to understand
that your handshake
means nothing?
It's time to teach
this guy a lesson.
Don't you want to
know who Eleanor is?
Come on, aren't you
just a little bit curious
about number 3?
I am trying
to play golf here.
She's right over there.
Eleanor larimore.
You're going
to love her.
She's classy.
She's beautiful.
She's an alien,
right?
No. She's a human.
All 3 women are humans.
I have a heart.
She's married.
You're not playing
fair today, ned.
It's a bad marriage.
It's a bad marriage.
Trust me.
No. No, I don't.
I never have.
That doesn't matter.
I always win anyway.
You did read
the fine print, didn't you?
Because
I have to admit,
you're being
a great sport about this.
How will I know that
they accept your proposals?
Videotapes.
Weatherman: We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure--
We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure front
sweeping down--
We have all
this rain up in here.
Then we have
this low-pressure front
sweeping down--
sweeping down
from the north.
Sweeping down from--
I'm a perfectionist.
Hey, I don't try
to be this way,
and it's really rough
on the women I know.
It's like there's
this critic on my shoulder.
Trouble-shooter, really.
Example--
say she's a cat lover.
All I hear
is him screaming,
"say goodbye
to Navy blue."
Hey, don't get me wrong.
I don't want to
grow old alone.
I love kids.
I certainly love women,
but I'm no Casanova.
I'm just trying
to find a woman
to get past
the critic in me.
My housekeeper--
great cook.
Who knows?
Maybe one of ned's choices
might be the perfect woman.
Wouldn't it be great
if it was the blonde?
Good evening, sir.
Thanks.
Ok. Here we are.
Saturday evening, 7:00.
I've given Erin
a lot of thought...
But mostly about strategy.
I can't touch her
because if I touch her,
I'll jump her,
and if I jump her,
I'll lose her.
Every man wants to jump her,
so I've got to be different.
Erin.
Taylor.
This bet's
going to kill me.
Let's get you
back in your coat.
We're going on a picnic.
They flooded the zone.
Kosar threw underneath
the coverage to newsome.
Sciarra totally
wimped out!
Sciarra's my main man!
Sciarra tackles
like he's putting
his grandma to bed.
Oh, no!
Look, you may be
the eagles' receptionist--
yay, team!
But that does not mean
you know a good tackle
when you see one.
I not only know one,
I can do one.
Right!
Right.
Ok.
Come at me.
Come at me.
No. I believe you.
No, you don't.
Let me have it.
Come on.
Come on,
come at me.
Erin, really,
I don't want to hurt you.
Aah!
Aah! Ugh!
I think I'm in love.
See?
You call the plays.
Good-bye, Bryan.
See you next week.
Ned: See you
tomorrow, Lewis.
How are you today,
young fella?
Pow!
How's the bad seed?
We're making progress.
I still think you
oughta send him through
a metal detector
before you see him.
Mmm. Honey, can I
ask you a question?
Of course.
Why are you fixing
Veronica up with Taylor?
Who are you mad at?
I'm not mad at anyone.
Honey, Veronica
is a talented,
highly respected
concert pianist.
She's going to hate him.
He's going to hate her.
She's not nearly
vapid enough.
No, Claire.
As his best friend
and as an expert
on the human mind,
I think it's in
his best interests
to have an atypical
congregation
with a member
of the opposite sex.
You are pissed at him.
Yeah.
Anchorwoman:
The Philadelphia SWAT team
was still surrounding
a downtown jewelry store.
4 gunmen
had taken hostages.
As far as we know,
no one has been harmed,
and negotiations
are in progress.
The police said...
Where's Taylor worth?
Over there. Has been
for the past 2 years.
Novelist Ann Travers
died today
in a freak skiing accident
in Chile.
She had broken her leg
on the slopes
and was being transported
to safety
when the rescuers
lost control of her stretcher.
Miss Travers plummeted
1,500 feet to her death.
She's best remembered
for her 1979 novel
aren't I the lucky one?
And now, Taylor worth
with the weekend weather.
Ann Travers... A woman
whose luck ran out.
Let's see... How'd I do
yesterday?
Did rain last night. Ha.
Got that right.
It's still unseasonably cold
here on the east coast,
but I've been
saying that for days.
Uh-oh! Hurricane Brenda.
Yeah, right down there
in Florida.
Came ashore--woosh!
You want to talk rain!
They had to cancel
the eagles-dolphins game.
And I said
it was going to
stay out there
in the ocean somewhere,
so the joke's on me.
Here in
your tri-state area,
we have clear air quality
tomorrow in the Delaware valley.
Well, Cory, what have you
got on for the weekend?
I'm going to
the country, Taylor.
There you have it.
Cory chu,
outstanding in her field.
That's the news.
For Bob mayon
and Taylor worth,
I'm Cory chu.
Good night.
And we're clear.
Everybody have
a nice weekend.
You have a good
weekend, Jerry.
Good night, cookie.
Great show, Taylor!
Thanks, Paul.
Have a good
weekend, Irv.
Are you at least
a meteorologist?
This must be...
Veronica?
You just say
the weather?
It's harder
than you think.
It would have to be.
Look, Taylor.
I'm going to save us
both some time,
and for you,
a few bucks.
I'd like to give you
a little test of mine
to see if we're
psychologically compatible.
Shoot.
Imagine this.
You walk into a room.
You see a hole
in the floor.
You walk up to it
and look in.
What do you see?
A meteorologist.
Reliable
birth-control devices?
Perfect.
Thank you very much.
Good luck and goodbye.
Imagine this.
You walk into a studio.
You meet a guy.
You talk to him
for a couple seconds.
What do you see?
A man who reads
the weather
wearing a lot
of makeup.
Yeah. Doesn't that pique
your curiosity at all?
I mean, aren't you
saying to yourself,
"I wonder if
he wears more makeup
in the evenings"?
Let me take you
to dinner,
you can find out
for yourself.
I'll call you.
I've got your number.
742 minus 619...
123.
487 minus 356...
131.
663 minus 421.
142.
Maybe on Mars.
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha!
A woman with all this
should look
happier than that.
Ha ha ha ha!
It really
doesn't matter.
It really doesn't matter
what shoe you choose.
Any shoe would look good
at the end of your leg.
Maybe I can help you
make a decision.
Walk over there.
Let me take a look.
I really
can't tell anything
unless you stand up.
Nice.
How about
something like...
This?
No.
Please.
Allow me.
No...
How does that feel?
Fine.
Please.
Come with me.
How about...
This?
Try it on... For me.
Hmm.
Eleanor:
I can't come out.
It may take a while,
but Eleanor's
going to blossom.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Recording: This is Taylor worth.
Talk to me.
Woman: Hi, Taylor. It's leanne.
Hope you're having a good time
with your foster child.
Give me a call when
Kim su goes back to Korea.
You big softy.
Kim su.
She sounded hot!
Oh, she is.
What am I supposed
to do about it?
Between being
the perfect gentleman
every night with Erin
d the perfect stud
every day with Eleanor,
who has the time?
In or out?
Look, I'll be worried
when I see 3 tapes
with 3 proposals
and 3 yeses.
By then,
it'll be too late.
You'll have lost
Claire's Picasso.
Your marriage
will be destroyed.
Ned, look.
I'm your best friend.
You just say the word,
we can call off
this whole stupid bet.
Raise ya 5.
3 yeses, Taylor, and you
only got 2 months left.
Veronica will call.
So?
I see you 5.
I raise you 5.
Ned: Oh, shit,
it's Claire!
I... will...
See you.
Recording: This is
Taylor Worth. Talk to me.
Taylor, this is
Veronica briskow.
Ned and Claire are coming
to dinner tomorrow night.
Why don't you join us?
My number is 555-3299.
Bye.
Ned: Shit!
Oh, and, ned? Go home.
Double shit!
No, no, no, no, no.
It's legato. Legato!
Don't you understand?
Legato.
Here. Listen to it
again.
I've already listened to it 3 times.
Hmm?
No.
I don't know what
legato is.
Sounds like a boat race.
Boat race. Ha ha ha.
Taylor hates music.
Well, why don't you tell us
what legato means?
Nice sweater,
Taylor.
It's very
Brooks brothers.
Oh. Are you still
having trouble
with your BMW?
I can name that segue
in 5 words.
Name that segue.
Sweater. Cold.
Alps. Germany.
BMW.
BMW.
So... what did
your manager say
about the rehab center
benefit?
He hates it when I play
for free, but I'll do it.
Oh, great. Thank you!
I mean, if I can't play
for 15 minutes
to keep a bunch
of drugged-out teenagers
from stealing my car,
what kind
of citizen am I?
Yeah. A real
philanthropist.
No. I leave that
to Claire.
Mmm.
My tombstone's going to read,
"what's in it for me?"
Nothing, if you
marry Taylor.
Let's eat!
Taylor, you come join me
in the kitchen.
Claire, check ned's pockets
for hallucinogens.
If you can't speak English
with the rest of us,
I'm going to have to
send you home.
Mm-hmm. Come on.
I want to see
Taylor's reaction
when he sees
the painting.
You mean, you didn't
tell him about the painting?
No.
Ha ha ha. Let's go.
Why do you ask?
Just curious.
I can't stand
that term "new age."
I was doing it long before
it was ever called that.
I had a classical
background--
oberlin, Juilliard, the
whole competition circuit,
but it was basically
too rigid for me.
I mean, I really hate
that kind of stuff.
Remember the critic
that sits on my shoulder?
Well,
he just passed out.
I mean, what the hell
am I supposed to do?
This must be another one
of her psychological tests.
I tell you, if I hadn't
signed that damn contract,
I wouldn't put up with
this crap for a minute.
I thought the hole
in the floor was hard.
So the rest is history.
I'm having a little
trouble concentrating
on what you're saying.
So could you just
shut up?
Taylor!
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha!
Thank you so much.
Oh, I'm glad
you came.
How about a game
of monopoly?
Ned,
I'm a little beat.
Ned, turn around
and walk out.
Come on, Taylor.
Let's let the girl
get to bed.
Now!
Bye, ned.
Bye.
Oh, you know what--
Come on, Taylor.
Let the girl get to bed.
Um!
How about this?
Does that feel good?
It's fine. You're
crushing my bone.
Sorry.
That's ok.
Aah!
Oh!
I've had better times
taking out splinters.
I wish it was yesterday.
Hey, it happens.
There wouldn't be great sex
if we didn't have
awful sex.
Awful...
Mechanical...
Slightly painful...
Unsatisfying sex.
I'm going to
hop in the shower!
Could you let
yourself out, please?
Sure.
I love my lingerie.
Uh, Eleanor...
What do you say,
next time we just talk?
Why?
I don't know.
Romance?
I get to know you,
you get to know me.
I think we're getting to
know each other just fine.
Ahem.
Oh! Would you give me
a special signal
on the show tonight?
When you rub your nose,
it means you wish...
Thank god
it was just my nose.
Dinner at Erin's
will be a welcome change.
You know, I thought
I'd find you here.
I'm only going to
say this once.
Erin is a flower,
a rare and beautiful
flower.
And I don't know what she sees in a guy like you.
But if you mess with her
or lay a hand on her,
I'll rip your head off.
Seems reasonable.
Terry!
So glad you dropped by.
Can you stay for coffee?
Put Taylor down. He
doesn't know you're kidding.
Ha ha ha ha!
Oh, I get it now!
Uhh!
I'll be
in the living room.
Did you like him?
Isn't he great?
Yeah.
He seems very nice.
Oh, he is.
He's smart
and sophisticated
and really considerate.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
He won't even start
the car
unless we put on
our seat belts!
What a guy.
I've never gone out
with someone for a month
who didn't make a pass.
I never made a pass.
You're my friend,
silly.
It doesn't count.
See you, Terry!

Hi.
God, Eleanor, please.
Not here.
Oh, yes, here.
In the lobby.
In the middle

In the cereal aisle

Tell me

Tell me i'm
dying for it.

You're the best.
Tell me I'm better

You're better than

Bravo!
Bravo!
I haven't
had much chance

your wife,
but she seems
like a real gem.
Yes.
I don't know
if I mentioned it,
but i'm
a psychiatrist.
Sometimes I can tell
a great marriage

It seems to me
that you guys have
a really strong,
close, good one,
am I right?
Taylor! Taylor!
Where are you running to?
Taylor?
Taylor Worth?
The weatherman?
That's right.
I love your reports!
You give the most
thoroughly detailed
weather reports!
I know.
Weather's
a hobby of mine.
Oh.
How about that storm
last march? Aiyee!
Was that a shock
or what?
Your fly is open.
Quite a shock.
And that flash flood
in Nebraska last may?
Whoosh!
How can she stand him?
Your fly is open.
Oh, honey!
Honey, look.
Taylor Worth.
Oh.
How do you do?
Your fly is open!
Well, it doesn't
make me deaf!
Uh, excuse me.
Got to run.
11:00 news.
You played beautifully.
Thank you.
Do you know
what time it is?
I know you just played for 2 hours,
but may I come in?
Just so you know
why I'm mad,
I hate it when my friends
run out of my concerts
without telling me
how wonderful I am,
and I really hate it
when guys come by here
unannounced
thinking it means
that I have to let them in.
How many you let
in there so far?
Imagine what she's
going to do to me
when I call off
our wedding.
Look, you got to admit
you sent me some
pretty mixed signals.
I mean,
"here's your watch
ecause I never want
to see you again,
"but here's a ticket
because
I want you to see
what you're missing."
Well, I saw, ok?
And you're magnificent.
I can't wait
to hear you again.
Call me.
Hello?
Veronica Briskow?
Yes.
Hi. It's Taylor Worth.
I know this seems silly,
but I can't help it.
It's such a pretty movie.
Enjoy the show!
I haven't seen it
since I was a little girl.
Really?
I've never seen it.
You haven't?
No. 2 please.
Wait till you see dopey.
He's the most adorable thing.
Hey, that's why
I'm here. Thanks.
Actually,
I had a different
sort
of day planned,
one that ends
in a proposal.
Hello.
Maybe if I toss in
a honeymoon
at Disneyland.
Come on!
It's so very beautiful.
They're so much in love.
What are you doing?
Filming our own
happy ending.
Can you move
a little to the left?
Whoa! Whoa.
Right there.
That's perfect.
Erin.
Taylor.
Erin, I think you
already know
what I'm going to
ask you.
And this may seem
inappropriate
because I haven't
known you very long,
but, Erin...
Taylor.
Dear Erin...
Will you marry me?
Oh.
Ohh!
I take it
that's a yes?
Can I hear
the word, please?
Can I hear that
precious word?
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
Take me, Taylor.
Oh, wild horses
couldn't stop me.
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm!
Ow! What?
Oh. Sorry.
Ned. Ned.
Not only am I 1/3 of the way
to teaching you a lesson,
but tonight, I will be
lying with the gods.
Erin,
I want you to know,
there is no one
I would rather be with
and nothing I would
rather be doing.
Mmm! Mmm!
Oh!
I'm so glad
I waited.
Oh, yeah.
I'm glad
we waited, too.
No. I'm so glad
I waited.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm glad that we waited, too.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
No, Taylor.
I'm so glad
I waited.
What?
Erin, I know this is
our first time, darling,
but you're not saying,
are you...
That this is
your first time?
Yes.
Ohh.
Mmm.
Taylor,
don't be upset.
I know it's not
your first time.
It's different
for men.
Oh, Erin, Erin, Erin.
You are very special.
You are. You are.
And--and--and you've waited
such a long time.
I want this
to be right for you.
Let's wait. Ok?
Let's wait till
after the wedding.
Are you sure?
Right now,
more than anything,
I want you
inside me,
to finally know
what it feels like.
Oh, god.
I'm sure.
You are so good at looking
at the big picture.
Oh, yeah. I'm looking
at the big picture.
Mmm!
What?
I'm not a monster.
Can I hear
the word, please?
Can I hear that
precious word?
Oh! Oh!
Oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
Take me, Taylor.
Oh, yeah.
Wild horses
couldn't stop me.
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Ow! What?
Oh, sorry.
Ned, ned.
Not only am I
1/3 of the way
to teaching you
a lesson
and winning
this bet,
but tonight,
I will be lying
with the gods.
[TV static]
I'll buy.
It's my idea.
Forget it.
I've been trying to
take you out for
a month. 2, please.
Thanks.
Guess it's the hot

primal therapy.
It's more cathartic.

whoa, whoa, ho!
No, no. What did you
really think of the movie?
I thought it was great.
I'd love to lie there
till the right woman
came along.
You don't get it,
do you?
She leaves
everything behind--
her home, her little friends,
and for what?
For some handsome prince!
The whole ending
implies
that a woman needs a man
to bring her to life!
Veronica,
it is not real life!
It's a fairy tale!
Come on!
I mean, did you ever
read the frog prince?
In that one,
he stayed a frog
until she kissed him
and brought him
back to life.
Yeah, well, I've kissed
a lot of frogs,
and I haven't
met a prince yet.
U've been kissing
the wrong frogs.
It's hard to find
the right person.
It's a search,
a process.
I don't think it's
supposed to be easy.
Well, maybe
I misjudged you, Taylor.
Up until now,
I thought of you as just
a pleasant diversion,
but maybe there's
a well of compassion
and sensitivity in you.
Really?
Not a deep well.
More like a bucket
or a toy pail.
You can stop before
you get to Dixie cup.
You know, some say you
have to kiss a frog twice.
Oh, why did you ever
come into my life?
To make you happy.
To hold you
in my arms forever.
I'll never be able to
look my father in the face.
Look, let's get away--
let's get married immediately,
right away, tonight.
You mean elope?
That's what I mean.
But where would we go?
Guess what?
This Veronica?
She's real easy
to be with,
once she stops
busting your balls.
♪ Da da da da ♪
after she agrees
to marry me,
I'm going to
keep dating her.

And whenever
a young man--
and there have been
very nice ones--
hey! Hey!
I thought
we made a deal.
Whoever makes breakfast
gets to pick the station.
It's halftime,

Looks like
the eagles cheerleaders
are unrolling a banner
or something.
"Congratulations

Mmm!
Hello, miss Briskow?
This is Eleanor larimore
confirming the luncheon
tomorrow.
Please give me a call.
Thank you.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Bye, love buckets.
Piece of cake.
Veronica.
Hmm?
How about if tonight
I give you
a special signal
on the show,
you know, one that says
I'm thinking about you?
Oh, that's sweet,
but I watch channel 8.
That doesn't bother me.
Here in the tri-state area,
we have high winds
coming down from New York,
but we'll have
clear air quality tomorrow
in all the Delaware valley.
That's all for the weather.
Now back to
my favorite newscaster,
Cory chu,
right after this
commercial break.
And in local news,
Philadelphia city council...
Hello?
Hey, buddy.
Did you see the game?
Ned, I don't have time
to talk now.
Things are getting
a little close.
I am 15 minutes late
for a date with somebody,
and I don't even know who.
W that banner on TV.
Who knows who else did.
Hey, you know,
Veronica and Eleanor
are having lunch together.
I think this whole thing
is gonna blow up in your face.
Ned, one more thing.
Yeah, what?
This is getting ridiculous.
I've got to break up
with Erin.
Have you picked
the ushers yet?
Ushers?
No. I haven't.
Uh, see, Erin.
We have to talk.
At Teddy's tux, if you
have 6 or more ushers,
the groom gets
his tux for free.
I have a tux.
See, I didn't know that.
Erin, you're
a wonderful girl,
and I care about you
very much.
From a selfish
point of view,
I can't think
of anything
I would rather have
than you being my wife
for
the next 50 or 60--
what are these?
Swatches.
Swatches? For what?
For my dress
and the bridesmaids dresses.
What do you mean by
a selfish point of view?
I can't marry you.
What?
Look, I don't know
what I was thinking--
I guess that
we'd get married
and that
we'd be together
and we'd decide to
try to have a family.
And then we'd try
for a year or 2...
And then
we'd both be tested
and you would
realize that i'm--
you're saying
you're sterile.
Yes.
Oh, I knew
you'd understand.
Erin, you deserve
better than me.
Wait a minute.
You're saying that we'll
never have to worry
about birth control
and if we want a baby,
all I'll have to do is be
artificially inseminated.
I am sorry they won't
be yours, though.
It's not just
that I'm sterile.
See, I can't have...
An orgasm.
You mean you can just
stay hard forever?
No, goddamn it!
I mean I'm impotent!
Oh.
I understand. You
shouldn't be doomed
to a life without sex.
Now, don't rush me.
It's just a lot
to think about.
Could you give me
a couple of days?
Oh, of course.
Now, in the meantime,
which of these
do you like best
for my maid of honor?
2, please.
Thanks.
I had to bring her.
Hey.
Do you know about
our discount passbooks?
Come here!

Oh! Yes.
Ooh! I'll be

Oh, yes!

but best of all,
I will have the girl.
I'm going to have to
write ned a thank-you note.
I'm not going to call off
the engagement with Veronica.
I'm not going to
rush it either.
A couple years
down the line
when a little Taylor
sounds like a good idea,
we'll tie the knot.
I really love this girl.
Ha ha ha!
Stop that.
Ah.
Let's sit here.
Yeah.
Ah.
Why do I have a feeling
it's time
for a serious talk?
You know me
pretty well.
See, it's just
that, um...
Aah.
Taylor,
you're nervous.
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
You're my favorite
person.
Oh, boy.
Oh, god.
Oh.
You know, all my life
I was convinced
I was responsible
for my own happiness.
I could never depend on anyone else to give it to me.
But I was wrong.
You've given it to me.
Come on.
Sit down.
Veronica,
marry me.
Marry you?
Ha ha ha!
I can't marry you.
I thought you wanted to
move in together.
I do! And have kids
and grow old.
Yeah, well, I'd want to
try it out first.
Live together for a few months,
see how we get along.
How we get along?
How we get along?
You do the mouse
Olympics with everyone?
I think there's more to marriage than mouse Olympics.
Yeah, so do I.
There's a lot more.
There's caring.
Veronica, I care
about you very much.
You make me laugh
at myself.
You know
what you have?
You have my heart.
And you know what?
I don't want you
to let go.
I want to have terrible
fights with you
and know that you're
not going anywhere.
Know that I'm not
going anywhere.
I want to pick
things out with you
and buy them!
I want a...
You know what,
I want a...
Aah!
I want a commitment!
Aah!
Make one with me.
Oh, my god.
I've been swept off my feet.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
Yes!
I want to
marry you now...
Today.
Well, how about
sometime this month?
I got to tell her
about the bet.
Pretty ironic, huh?
Same thing
that got me into this
could take it all away.
Poetic justice
doesn't feel so good.
That was nice.
We're here.
Veronica, I've done
some things in my past
I'm not proud of.
I don't want to
hear about them.
Yeah, but, see,
there's this one thing
in my very recent past,
something
I realize in retrospect
wasn't very nice.
Something that involved
a few innocent people.
Something that now
that my... Um...
Single days
are behind me,
I realize
was not very nice.
Are you planning on
doing it again?
No.
Are you a criminal?
God, no!
Then don't tell me.
There you have it.
However...
You better
marry me soon,
like before
I see your face
on the post office wall.
How about Saturday?
I have to be at Claire's
in 3 hours.
I'm meeting
that Eleanor lady.
I think I can squeeze in
a blood test.
Do me a favor.
What?
Let's wait. Tell ned
and Claire together.
You're right.
They'd probably never
believe just one of us.
Good weekend, huh?
Mmm...
Are we talking
girl in love here?
Yes, but I'm not
supposed to say
anything about it.
I promised him
I wouldn't.
Are you moving in
with him?
I can't tell you.
Are you getting married?
I'm not supposed
to tell you.
Oh, my god!
Is he a great lay?
Oh...
As a matter of fact,
he is.
Well, sold. Good.
I had a chance to marry
a great lay once,
but I didn't.
I married Howard sr.,
the richest, sweetest,
most appropriate person
I could find.
And for 12 years...
I managed to go through life
as if the rest...
Didn't matter to me.
And then I met this man.
How he ever found me,
I have no idea,
but he knew exactly
what I needed,
and he gave it to me.
And he still
gives it to me
and gives it to me
and gives it to me.
I can't think
of anything else.
Who knew?
Ha ha ha!
Enough about me.
What's your fellow like?
Oh... well.
Excuse me.
Give me it!
It's my tape!
It's mine!
What is
going on here?
She put a tape on,
and you said
we should never
do that.
I want to see
Mary poppins.
You do?
That's not
Mary poppins,
and you're going
to get a time-out.
You're going to get
a time-out, too.
Are not.
Are, too.
Are not.
Quiet, kids!
Go to your room.
Go to your room.
Erin: Taylor.
I knew we'd be
sent to our room.
Will you marry me?
Yeeea!
Is that a yes?
Can I hear
that precious word?
Oh, oh, yes, Taylor.
I will marry you.
That's my Taylor.
That's my Taylor.
Take me, Taylor.
That's her Taylor.
Ned, ned, not only am I
1/3 of the way
to teaching you a lesson
and winning this bet,
but tonight I will be
lying with the gods!
Ned.
What?
Wedding?
Wedding. St. James chapel,
2:00 Saturday.
Cigar.
Cigar?
Rocket,
you're not getting
the painting.
No tape, no painting.
Ned, I cannot believe
how immature you are being.
Do you expect me
to show you a tape
of the woman I love
accepting my proposal?
If you want
the painting.
Painting? Painting!
It's not about a painting.
It's about human beings.
It's not about
a stupid bet.
People!
I'm ashamed of that bet.
It's contemptible!
Really.
Playing with people's lives
that way.
You should all be ashamed,
especially you, ned.
Well, I never thought
you'd win.
Win?
That's not the point.
The point is,
I am out. Out!
You're serious?
Yes.
You're really
going to marry her?
Yes, I am.
Forget the bet.
Good man.
I still get my $400
though, right?
All bets are off.
What about Erin
and Eleanor?
I'll handle it.
Hey, Taylor.
How are you?
Hey, Ira.
Tracey. Thanks.
See you tomorrow.
It's Wednesday,
and everything
is working out just great.
Tomorrow, I'm going to have
one last lunch with Erin.
She'll call off the wedding
by dessert, trust me.
By Friday, Eleanor
should get this letter.
I told her it was time to put her
passion back into her marriage.
Marriage.
I'm getting married
to Veronica on Saturday.
Did you ever think it was
going to work out this well? Ha!
Hi, Taylor.
Hi.
Amy!
Do the station a favor,
and call this Eleanor back!
Thursday, 9:00 a.m.
"I want to see you."
9:15, "where are you?"
9:30, "I need you."
Et cetera, et cetera.
Here's a smart girl.
"Can't make lunch today,
how about Friday? Erin."
Man: It will be nice
to see you, too.
Thank you very much.
Hi. Worth. 1:00.
For two.
Yes. The young lady
is inside.
Ahh.
Sir, she--
Hello.
Taylor.
You can't make it?
I know we've got
a lot to talk about.
You said you'd make
your decision by now.
No, I can't wait
till next week.
It's got to be tomorrow
in the morning.
Uh, fine, fine.
Your house, 11:00.
Yeah, yeah,
thank you. Bye.
Hi, Taylor.
Where are you?
Why haven't you
called me?
You've been
very naughty.
Mommy's going to
have to punish you.
Hi.
Hello, Taylor.
I've made
my decision.
Whatever it is,
I'll understand.
Come on in.
I may have time for a haircut
before the wedding.
Surprise!
Surprise!
Mom and dad,
this is Taylor.
Son.
Mom: Oh, Taylor.
Erin, can I talk
to you for a minute?
Not right now.
Where is that party mix?
Welcome to
the family, son.
Hey, hi! I'm chip,
brother of the bride.
Oh, don't worry
about that.
You'll have plenty
of time
for talking
after you're married...
Like on your
wedding night.
Ha ha ha!
God, I love Erin.
She's my favorite niece.
You know,
it's just like her
to find somebody
like you to marry.
I mean, what a heart
on that girl.
Always bringing home
some limping puppy
or bird
with a broken wing.
Erin, Erin,
can I talk to you?
Have you tried
the stamp test?
The what?
The stamp test.
You take
a few stamps from a roll,
enough to circle your penis.
I'd say in your case...
About 5.
Put them on
before you go to bed.
Overlap them just enough
so you can lick one
to make them stick.
Now, if they break off
during the night,
your problem is up here.
You want to know why?
Why?
Erin!
You don't
have to yell, honey.
I'm right here.
Erin, how could
you tell everyone?
Huh?
This was supposed to
be personal.
Honey, I just talked
about it with my family
and some of the guys
on the team.
Some of the guys
on the team!
And the coach.
The coach!
Damn it, Erin!
They all seem to agree
that after the first
year of marriage,
sex isn't
that important.
Sex is the cornerstone
of intimacy.
Intimacy, schmintimacy.
I got a hunch
about you, Taylor.
I think your problem's
just with women.
I know you would
look good in Rose,
but Lillian would
look awful, you know.
We're not
getting married.
Erin, I can't
marry you.
You can, and you will.
I want to propose
a toast.
A toast!
Hey! Right!
No, stay there,
son. Today...
Is the happiest day
of my life.
My little girl's engaged.
She's got herself
a wonderful guy.
Of course, I'd be
a little happier
if he could function
as a real man,
but even so, it's
the happiest day of my life.
Hip hip!
Hooray!
♪ For he's a jolly good fellow ♪
♪ For he's a jolly good fellow ♪
♪ For he's a jolly good fellow ♪
♪ Which nobody can deny ♪
♪ Which nobody can deny ♪
♪ Which nobody can deny ♪
♪ For he's a jolly good-- ♪
Oh!
Hi, honey.
You're home.
Yeah. I'm home.
Where are you?
I'm home, too.
I know what's
bothering you.
No. No, you don't.
Sex.
No.
You're afraid
it's going to be routine
now that
we're living together.
It won't be.
I promise.
Look!
Oh!
Jesus!
Let's party.
Aah!
It's been
a really bad day.
You probably think
I deserve this, don't you?
Go ahead. Say it.
Who are you
talking to?
Aah!
Can you wash
my back?
Hey!
Hey, taxi!
Taylor! Need a ride
to the wedding?
Yes!
I'm just going to drop
these kids off, ok?
Mommy,
Jason hit me!
Tell Jason
you don't like it.
Jason,
I don't like it!
I don't like it!
Good.
Claire, can you
drop me off first?
Hi, Taylor! Hi, Taylor!
We're off!
Claire,
did you hear me?
Hey, pirate. Could you move
your ice cream a little?
Marvin dropped his
ice cream on Taylor.
Mommy,
I lost my balloon.
Can we stop?
No!
Sure we can,
sweetie.
The wedding was supposed
to start 5 minutes ago.
Taylor, they're not going to
start without you!
Left. Left!
Claire, left!
Turn left!
Whoa!
Relax! There's
nothing to worry about!
Oh, I'm getting carsick.
Now, that's something
to worry about.
Jason's
throwing up on me.
Tell Jason
you don't like it.
None of us likes it.
I have to get
to the wedding!
Stop the car!
You're so on edge!
Take a valium!
What's a valium?
It's like a nap.
Oh.
Bye, Taylor!
Bye, Taylor!
Bye, Taylor!
Oh, there he is.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the groom.
Where
have you been?
It's 31 flavors.
You look disgusting!
Here. Come on.
Let's get a shot here.
That's nice.
That's good.
Come on.
Get up there.
Go! Go!
God...
I can't believe it.
I'm walking down the aisle.
Hi.
Seeing you right now
made me realize something.
Deep down inside,
I didn't think you'd be here.
Thank you
for being here.
Let's get married.
Shall we begin now?
Yes.
Every couple
has its own story.
It's been my observation that
the more interesting the story,
the better the marriage,
and it looks to me
like Taylor and Veronica
are going to have
a wonderful marriage.
All of us
are gathered here today
to witness and support
that union.
Taylor worth,
do you take Veronica briskow
to be
your lawfully wedded wife,
to have and to hold,
for better
or for worse,
in sickness
and in health,
to love
and to Cherish
from this day forward,
till death do you part?
I do.
Veronica briskow,
do you take Taylor worth
to be your
lawfully wedded husband,
for better
or for worse,
in sickness
and in health,
to love and to Cherish
from this day forward,
till death do you part?
I'd never marry him.
And you
can bet on it!
Taylor...
Did she say
she was going to marry you?
And you believed it.
This was a setup.
I don't know.
I don't know
anything about this.
Ned.
Oh, god.
Claire...
Claire!
Claire? Claire?
Veronica... marry me.
I can't marry you. I thought
you wanted to move in together.
I do! And have kids
and grow old.
Ha ha ha!
I'd want to
try it out first,
live together
for a few months,
see how we get along.
How we get along?
How we get along?
Go away.
You do the mouse Olympics
with everyone?
There's more to marriage
than mouse Olympics.
Yeah, so do I.
There's a lot more.
I said, go away!
There's caring.
Veronica, I care
about you very much.
Aw, the hell with it.
You know what you have?
You have my heart.
You know what?
I don't want you to let go.
I want to have
terrible fights with you--
yeah?
Ned: It's me.
Go away.
Are you going to lock yourself in there another month?
I am not home, ned.
I've seen her.
Know that I'm not
going anywhere.
I want to pick things out
with you and buy them.
What'd she say?
She mention me?
Did she talk about it?
Huh?
Actually, I just watched
her get into Claire's car.
I want a...
You know, I want a...
Aah!
I want a commitment!
Aah!
Make one with me.
Oh, my god.
I've been swept
off my feet.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
Yes--
Give me that tape.
No.
Give me the tape!
I insist you get
professional help.
These are classic signs
of depression.
Furthermore...
No! Give me the tape!
No!
No!
Yes, ned! Stop!
Uh!
Aaaoooh!
Oh!
What?
What?
No! Let me go!
That's my bad ankle.
Ohh!
Ohh!
Uh!
Ohh!
Ohh!
Don't be an asshole.
There's
a real Veronica out there.
Who hates me.
You don't know that.
Ned...
I proposed to her
to win a bet.
Yeah.
That's pretty fucked.
It was your idea!
Well, yeah...
I'm sorry.
I just thought it would
be a good idea
for you to suffer.
Yeah? Well, here it is.
Take a good look.
Hope you're happy.
You hate me,
don't you?
You hate me.
No.
But you have
every right to.
But I assume,
since I'm not out
there on the street
with that tape, that
you've forgiven me.
Am I right?
Well?
Maybe Veronica could
do the same with you.
I think it's different
between a man and a woman.
Not as different
as you think.
Maybe that's been
part of your problem.
Did Claire forgive you?
Yes...
But I had to ask.
Well...
Beg, actually.
Beg.
Thanks.
Well, our next item
comes from our great
football team, the eagles.
Of course,
they're great now.
For those of you
who grew up here as I did,
you remember what they
used to be like.
They were
in last place so many years,
we used to read the sports
page upside-down
just to feel
what it'd be like
to see our team
in first place.
Well, we have here
a great item.
It's a Jersey
worn by our very own
Terry Childs here.
Yay!
Now, who's going to
start the bidding
on this Jersey?
$200.
Come on! The man
sacked elway twice
wearing this very Jersey!
Let's go!
$300.
Sold for $300!
Well, our next item
for auction
has to be the special one
of the evening,
and I expect the biggest
response to this one.
We all enjoyed miss briskow's
playing earlier this evening.
Well, she has
graciously donated
to the highest bidder
an evening performance
at a private party.
How's that?
Miss briskow,
would you come up?
Come on up.
Takes a lot of guts.
I'd never do my act
in a house.
See me at the kitchen--
"please don't eat that.
I have a chicken joke.
It's great.
Put down your sandwich."
Ok., now. Let's open up
the bidding at $200.
$200.
$400.
600.
6. Do I hear 7?
$1,000.
Woo! $1,000.
Going once,
going twice...
$2,000.
I heard $2,000.
2,200.
3,000.
3,200.
3,200.
Going once...
Going twice.
$4,000
and a fishing cabin.
A fishing cabin?
Taylor?
Look! It's our very own
channel 5 weatherman--
Taylor worth!
Look!
Ok!
Uh...
Do I hear 4,200?
4,200.
4,200.
Ok. Going once...
Oh...
Going twice...
Not so fast, David.
$4,200,
a fishing cabin,
and a public proclamation
of what a creep he is.
Ooh!
I'm a creep.
I'm a bastard.
He's a great
lay.
I knew it!
I don't deserve you,
I know that,
but I can't imagine
not loving you.
You're bold,
you're splendid,
you're intriguing.
You're a whole lot of things
I never knew mattered.
Oh! Oh!
Veronica...
Veronica...
Save me.
I beg you.
Marry me.
Is that all?
And a scrabble rematch.
Unlimited mouse Olympics?
I'll even become
a meteorologist.
Then kiss me!
Ohh! Ohh!
Sold for $4,200,
a fishing cabin,
a public proclamation
of what a creep he is,
a scrabble rematch,
unlimited mouse Olympics,
he'll become a meteorologist,
and a kiss.
