Morning.

Do you remember what you were doing
20 years ago today?

No.

Why, should l?

Oh, my mother's
making breakfast again.

We better get down there.

We'll be lucky to have a dish left
before she leaves.

l hope Brandon got to the airport
on time to pick up my parents.

You know how crazy they get
whenever anyone's late.

Don't worry, everybody will be
on their best behavior.

Well, l hope so.
Come on, let's get dressed.



Wait a second.

Come here.

What?

This is for you.

Jim, it's beautiful.

The jeweler said that 20
was our emerald anniversary.

lt's gorgeous.

So are you.

Hey.

Thanks for an incredible 20 years.

Yeah. Me too.

Grandma?

Oh, let me help you with that.

l don't know,
it just slipped out of my hands.



Don't worry about it.

So how many people
are coming to the party tonight?

l don't know, about 50 or so.

Then what does your mother
need a caterer for?

We could have
handled that ourselves.

l could've made my asparagus rolls,
a few big turkeys.

Well, Grandma, l'm sure that Mom
wanted you to be a guest, not the chef.

Well, your mother
never did like my cooking.

Grandma.

Well, in my day,
people didn't hire caterers.

Well, this is Beverly Hills,
not Minnesota.

And believe it or not,
they even have caterers in Minnesota.

As a matter of fact,
Grandma Beevis uses one all the time.

l'm sure she does.

Grandma, be nice.

Well, you don't have to tell me that.
l'm always nice.

l'll run right out
and get the rest of your bags.

- Thanks, Brandon.
- Thank you.

Hey, here we are.

Mom, Dad,
Grandma and Grandpa are here.

Grandma, Grandpa.

- Hi, honey.
- Hi.

- Hello, Bill.
- Georgette, how are you?

Arlene.

- Brenda, let me take a look at you.
- Georgette.

You know, l think you've grown.

Oh, you just saw me
two months ago.

So l did.
Well, come over and give me a hug.

- Hi, hi!
- Ready for a party?

Oh, you bet we are.
Let me take a look at you, sweetheart.

l think you've grown, you know that?

Oh, that would be Stuart.

l can't wait to meet him.

Brenda has a boyfriend, you know.

- Oh, is that right?
- A very wealthy boyfriend.

- Grandma.
- Mother.

- Hello.
- Hi, love.

How are you?

Well, you're just in time
to meet the family.

Stuart, this is Grandma,
Grandpa and Grandma.

- Stuart.
- lt's a pleasure.

- Nice to meet you.
- Hello.

Yes, now l see where Brenda got
her eyes and her smile

and her cute little nose.

Oh, how sweet.

Well, you're a big hit
with the grandparents.

Well, we have to go
on a last-minute shopping trip, so...

Yeah, l gotta go too. l'm tutoring
a basketball player in sociology.

ls he any good?

Not at sociology.

Mel, Erin,
what are you guys doing here?

Guess who rang the doorbell
all by herself.

Well, good for you.

So, what are you guys doing here?

Well, l've got a little situation,
l was hoping you could help me out.

What's wrong?

Well, Jackie wouldn't trade weekends
with me, so l've got Erin.

Which would be fine, except that Nina's
doing a photo shoot down in Cabo

and she's desperate for me to fly down
and spend the weekend with her.

Why don't you take Erin with you?

l love Erin, but l can hardly spend
a romantic weekend in Mexico

with a crib in the room.

l get it.

l've got Erin's regular babysitter
all lined up.

She'll handle everything.

All you have to do is just
sleep at my place for the weekend.

l don't know. You sure about this?

David, please.

l'd just feel more secure
knowing that you were there.

- All right.
- Thanks.

l knew l could count on you.

Yeah.

See?

l told you you had
a terrific big brother.

Are you reading?

D'Shawn, how much longer
is this gonna take?

Soon as l sink
20 free throws in a row.

l didn't realize
tutoring was a spectator sport.

Look, l won't be that long.

Why don't you catch a workout
while you wait?

Maybe white men
can learn how to jump.

Hi.

l hope you don't mind.
l usually work out with a friend.

- Do you mind spotting me?
- Sure.

Girl can pump some iron.

l try.

So how long you been doing this?

Couple years. Not recently, though.

l've been traveling places they don't
exactly have a gym on every corner.

Oh, yeah? Where's that?

Central America.

l'm a cultural anthropologist.

So you're a professor here?

Yeah, l wish.

No, l'm an ABD.

ABD?

Yeah, stands for
''all but dissertation.''

l'll be lucky if l get my doctorate

sometime before
the end of the millennium.

Here l thought
you were an undergrad.

Thanks for the compliment.

That's it for me.

Good set.

- So, what's your name?
- Brandon Walsh.

- Lucinda Nicholson.
- Hi.

Hi.

Listen, do you wanna
get a cup of coffee or something?

l'd love to but l gotta meet someone.

Your girlfriend?

No, actually, just this kid
that l'm tutoring.

So does that mean you're as smart
as you are good-looking?

Smarter, actually.

Listen, this may be kind of forward,
but could l call you sometime?

No, l don't think so.

But l'm here every morning at 7.

Okay.

See you.

See you.

Paul, bring it over here.

Okay, Steve, l will show you just how
to space the tables down here.

Put the tables over there,
under the trees.

That's fine
if you like leaves in your food.

Well, where else would you suggest
we put them?

Closer to the dance floor.

Well, fine. That way, everyone
can bump into each other.

Look, ladies, ladies,
make up your minds.

Or else you're gonna be
setting up these tables yourself.

- ls there a problem?
- Well, there really isn't a problem, l--

- The tables should be under--
- Ladies, ladies. No, no problem.

Not if you tell me
where you want everything to go.

Put half the tables under the trees
and the other half by the dance floor.

- That's what l said.
- That is exactly what l said.

lt's gonna be a long day.

Paul.

Heard you might be
in the market for some product.

Could be.

l'm Gus. Let's take a walk.

Okay, Gus.

So, what does a kid like you
need a gun for?

Questions always part of the deal?

No. Just curious.

l got carjacked.
Some punk put a gun to my face.

Fair enough.

So, what did you have in mind?

Let me see that.

A Walther.

You've been reading
too many James Bond novels.

You got any better suggestions?

You know, it's illegal
to carry a concealed weapon.

Are you a cop, Gus?

No, just taking an interest
in my clientele.

Well, l'll take my chances.

So, what do you think?

l think l'll take it.

l hope you're wearing sunscreen.

Always. Hi.

Do you ever actually listen
to your phone machine?

l've been calling you all day.

l wasn't home.

Well, one of my frat brothers
has given me two front-row tickets

to the Steely Dan concert
tonight at the Forum.

And there's no one
l'd rather ask than you.

l'd love to go,
but l have plans already.

Let me guess.

Dylan's having another crisis.

Actually, l'm going to a party,
thank you.

- Have a date?
- No.

Well, you do now.

lt's not that kind of party.

Brenda and Brandon Walsh's parents
are celebrating their 20th anniversary.

Okay. So l'll go with you.

l can't take you to the Walshes' party.

Why not? l have a nice suit.

l'll take a shower.

Kelly, l won't embarrass you.

lt's not that.

Dylan's gonna be there.

So? l'm not planning
to dance with Dylan.

You know what l'm saying.

l just don't think it's the right place
for us to make our first appearance.

So you're saying eventually we will
make an appearance together.

l don't know what l'm saying.

Okay. Then l'll say it.

l'm crazy about you, Kelly.

l can't eat, l can't sleep,
l definitely can't study.

All l do is think about you.

You feel it too. l know you do.

Yes, l feel it.

Then give into it.

l can't.

At least not tonight.

Okay.

l told you before, l can wait.

Because you're worth waiting for.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- What do you have there?
- A present.

- You'll see it tonight.
- Fine, l can wait.

Hey, you need a ride?
l could swing by and pick you up.

No, that's okay.
Dan's gonna give me a ride.

Dan Rubin?

You mean tonight l finally get to meet
the famous Dan Rubin?

Well, you can meet him right now
if you want.

Dan, come here. Come here.

Hey.

Dan, this is Brandon Walsh.

- How you doing, man?
- Hey.

- Well, where's your halo?
- Excuse me?

To hear Andrea talk about you,
you're one step from sainthood.

What kind of lies you been telling?

l said nothing of the sort.

Yeah, well,
l've heard a lot about you too, man.

- We can compare notes.
- Maybe l should skip this party.

- Oh, no, no, no.
- Oh, no. No way.

You just gotta accept the fact
that we're gonna tease you all night.

Mercilessly.

Hey, would you guys excuse me?
l got some stuff l gotta do.

- Okay.
- See you.

Nice to meet you.

- He's a nice guy.
- Yeah, l know he is.

So maybe we can have
that cup of coffee after all.

Well, well, well, we meet again.

- Have a seat.
- Thanks.

l can't stay long. lt's my parents'
20th wedding anniversary tonight.

- l got a lot to do.
- Good for them.

As a woman and an anthropologist,

l congratulate them on being able
to put up with each other that long.

No, l'm serious.

People are short on commitment
these days.

Some people.

ls that your way of saying
you're a one-woman man?

Maybe. Depends on the woman.

You want a cup of coffee?

Line's too long.

Well, here, share mine.

Thanks.

- Sweet.
- You don't like it that way?

To tell you the truth,
l don't like it any way.

l don't drink much coffee
unless l really need to stay awake.

- God, you're just a kid, aren't you?
- Just because l don't drink coffee?

What's the matter, you didn't read
Diet for a New America?

Okay. l can take it.

Tell me, how old are you?

- Eighteen.
- Eighteen.

Eighteen.

Gosh, l was 1 8 once too.

Come on, you make it sound like
you're ancient. How old are you?

l'm 27.

Twenty-seven is not old.

No, it's not.

Except when you're flirting
with an 1 8-year-old.

ls that what you're doing?

Maybe.

Good.

Yeah, it's open.

Hey, man. l'm just dropping this off.

- What is it?
- lt's my parents' anniversary present.

l don't want them to see it.

What did you get them?

We had their wedding picture
turned into a jigsaw puzzle.

lf they take it apart,
it'll take them a lifetime

to put it back together.

l haven't really figured out
what l'm gonna get them yet.

You don't have to get them anything.

After everything your mom
and dad have done for me? l do.

Okay.

- See you.
- See you.

David, which one should l wear,
the red one or the white one?

Let me see.

l think you'd look good in both,

but honestly, l'd really much rather
see you in nothing at all.

David.

- Hello?
- David.

l know that l told you
all you have to do is sleep over here,

but l got a little problem.

What's wrong?

The babysitter is late, and l
really don't wanna miss this plane.

Do you think you could just come over
here and hang out until she shows up?

- Yeah, l guess so.
- Great,

l really appreciate it.

- Bye,
- Bye.

We have to stop by Mel's
before we go to the party.

- Why?
- Just get dressed.

l'll explain it all later in the car.

Wait, which one?

- The white one.
- Okay.

Do you feel a little weird
or is it just me?

You know, l was just about
to ask you the same question.

l mean, how did they do it?

How did our parents
stay married for 20 years?

More importantly, how'd they stay
happily married for 20 years?

They are happy, aren't they?

They sure seem it.
l don't think it's an act.

Yeah, but how do they keep it alive?

They still lock their bedroom door
every Sunday night.

What do you think of Stuart?

l hardly know him.

Well, maybe he's the one.

Bren, you've only known the guy
two weeks.

Slow down a little, will you?

l mean, Stuart may be the one,
Stuart may not be the one.

You may not meet the one
until the year 2000.

You've got a lot of time,
you'll find him.

Yeah, well, life will be
awfully lonely if l don't.

What about you?

Hey, don't look at me.

The only relationship
l've had last longer than a month

was with that psychopath,
Emily Valentine.

l'm a long way from finding it.

Well, you will.

Can we stop with all this sappy stuff?
My skin's starting to crawl.

Yeah, what about the present?
l wanna set it up.

Oh, no, the present.

Don't tell me you forgot to pick it up.

No, l didn't forget.
l just left it over at Dylan's house.

Well, l wanted to give it to Mom
and Dad before the guests arrived.

l'm going to get it right now.
l'll be back in ten minutes.

Five if l make all the lights.

Now, Jimmy, you put that down.
That's for company.

Oh, come on, Mom, just one.

Oh, all right. Go on.

Good. Not as good as yours,
but good.

Thank you for that.

- l'm glad you're here.
- Me too.

Well, l just wish
your dad were alive today

to see what a wonderful man
his son has become.

And what a good husband
and father you are.

Thanks, Mom.

That means a lot.

What's this?

Those are the rings your father and l
exchanged almost 50 years ago.

You keep them.
Share them together.

lt's the best present
you could've given us.

And who knows?
Maybe one of your kids

will be getting married soon

and you can pass the rings
along to them.

- Bite your tongue, Mom.
- Why?

Yo, Dylan!

Dylan!

Dylan!

- l got a gun, man. Don't even move!
- Dylan, don't shoot, it's me, Brandon.

Oh, my God, man.
What are you doing here?

What am l doing here?
What are you doing with a gun?

l'm protecting my home.
Never heard of doorbell?

Yes, l've heard of a doorbell.

There was no answer.

l had to get my parents' present,
l didn't see your car, l came in.

My car's in the garage.
l was in the shower.

- l almost shot you!
- No kidding.

You ever hear of an alarm system?
lt might be safer for you.

Hey, if somebody ever comes up

and sticks a gun
through the window of your car,

- then you can tell me about it.
- Listen,

l know they stole your car.
l know it was scary.

l know your dad got blown away,
but this isn't the answer, man.

You're gonna kill somebody.
You almost killed me.

l'm sorry.

l don't know. l'm out of it, man.
l don't know what l'm doing here.

Just do me a favor, will you, pal?

Will you get rid of this thing?

Stop playing cowboys and lndians.

Yeah.

l will, l--

l just got one problem.

What's that?

- How do you get rid of a gun?
- You throw it off a pier.

- Take a ride tomorrow?
- Sure.

But tonight, we got a party to go to.

Come in.

You look better in that dress
than you did in the store.

Thank you.
How come you're here so early?

l could not stay away.

Besides,
l'm practically one of the family.

Well, you're just in time.
Will you help me?

Think your parents would mind if we
skipped the party and stayed up here?

Stuart, zip it up, not down.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Steve, l have someone
l want you to meet.

ls this the flying cannonball?

This is Dan Rubin. Dan Rubin, this is
Steve Sanders and Celeste Lundy.

- Hi.
- l can't believe it.

The Walshes have been married
for 20 years. Think about it, 20 years.

- That's gotta be a Beverly Hills record.
- lt's romantic.

lf you believe in marriage.

What, you don't?

Ask me in about five years.

- Nice meeting you.
- Bye.

Hey, Red.

Well, fancy meeting you here.

Why do you always look so good?

- To torture you.
- Consider me tortured.

So, what did you get the Walshes?

Candlesticks.

Oh, really?
No pearl-handled revolvers?

Kel, you don't have to worry about me.
No more guns.

- That's a relief.
- You were right.

l mean, being armed and dangerous
is not gonna solve all my problems.

Well, l'm glad
to hear you say that, Dylan.

Do you think anybody would get the
wrong idea if we walked in together?

Who cares?

This must be the present that
Brenda and Brandon got their parents.

- Yeah, l know all about it.
- Look how cute they look.

They haven't changed much
in 20 years.

l wonder where we'll be in 20 years.

l don't know where l'll be
in 20 minutes.

Hello. Hi.

Erin? What's Erin doing here?

- Erin is here?
- Mel had some babysitter problems.

Of course he did.

Come here, sweetie.
Mommy's gonna take you to a party.

- No.
- Yes, she is.

- No.
- Yes, she is.

No.

Looks like Brenda
finally found someone

who can keep up with her
on the floor.

Stuart. A real mover-shaker,
always has been.

How do you know him anyway, man?
He go to West Beverly?

No, just from the scene.

And what scene is that?

You don't wanna know.

So they serious?

l don't know,
they spend a lot of time together.

l'd keep my eye on him, bro.
l wouldn't want him dating my sister.

Look at your parents.

They really love each other,
don't they?

Yeah, they do.

You know, whenever l'm over here,
l feel like this is a real home.

A real family.

Not like the show my parents put on.

Well, your parents seem like
they're pretty happy.

lt's a business arrangement.

They gave up on romance
a long time ago.

That's too bad.

l believe in love.

Me too.

All right.

Well, if no one else is,
l'm gonna make the first toast.

- What?
- Don't worry, l won't embarrass you.

l wanna congratulate your parents.
Tell them how l feel. Come.

- Oh, be nice.
- Come on.

Be...

Hi, everybody,
can l have your attention, please?

Oh, l miss you.

l'm Stuart Carson.

l'm a friend of Brenda's.

And even though
l've probably known the Walshes

for less time than everyone here,

l can't tell you how much it means
to me to be with you all tonight

as we celebrate the love
of two very wonderful people.

So please, raise your glasses with me
to Jim and Cindy Walsh.

Let me be the first to congratulate you
on 20 years of marriage

and a lifetime of happiness to come.

Hear, hear.

Hear, hear.

Thanks.

- That was very sweet. Thank you.
- That was lovely.

- That was just lovely.
- Thank you , that was really nice.

That is quite a guy Brenda's got.

Who knows,

maybe we'll all be seeing each other
at a wedding soon.

Mother, please,
l'm having a great time tonight.

Don't ruin it.

Brenda is much too young
to be thinking about marriage.

- Thank you, Mother.
- Oh, l don't know.

He's rich, handsome, charming.
What more could she want?

- College education.
- A college education.

You were wonderful.

See, l told you
l wouldn't embarrass you.

Listen, can we go somewhere alone
for a minute?

There's something
l want to say to you in private.

Sure.

ls this private enough for you?

lt's perfect.

Brenda,
l've never met anyone like you.

You make me happier
than l have ever been in my life.

And somehow, l thought tonight
might be a good time to give you this.

- Stuart...
- l know this may seem fast.

But l want to marry you, Brenda.

l don't know what so say.

Brenda,

will you marry me?

We've only known each other
for two weeks.

Will you marry me?

Yes.

Yes.

- Hey, Kel. Taking a breather?
- Yep, just fixing my face.

Me too.

So l like Dan.
He seems like a nice guy.

Yeah, l guess he is.

- l thought you really liked him.
- l thought so too.

What's the matter?

l slept with him, Kel.

And the first time
was nothing like l thought it would be.

Well, life never is.

You wouldn't think that l'd be the kind
of girl to be so impulsive, would you?

Andrea, sometime you're not supposed
to think things through so much.

You just have to follow your heart.

Well, that's just it.

l mean, l thought
l might be in love with him, but...

l don't know.
l mean, he's more cerebral than l am.

He doesn't have
a romantic bone in his body.

And tonight,
when l saw the Walshes together...

l don't know, it just hit me.

l mean,
maybe he's the wrong guy for me.

How long is it supposed to take
before l feel the earth move?

Just give it some time.

What, practice makes perfect?

Maybe.

l don't know.

lf you don't have sparks
in the beginning of a relationship,

maybe there never will be any.

Well, you never know.
l mean, look at Dylan and me.

We have all the sparks in the world
and we still can't make it work.

- Oh, here, let me take her.
- Thanks, l'm starved.

Come here, sweetie.

There you go.

- David, l think she has a fever.
- No, it's just warm in here.

No, she felt warm to me
when you first got here.

But look, her face is flushed.

- Did Mel say anything to you?
- No.

Where's he? What's his number?
He did leave a number, didn't he?

- Of course he did. lt's just...
- What?

He's in Mexico.

- What?
- Jackie, don't get all excited.

l will get as excited
as l damn well please.

Right now, l am going to take
my daughter home.

You tell your father
he'll be hearing from my lawyer.

You can tell
she is in a real great mood.

Brenda, please say goodbye
to your parents for me.

Erin's not feeling well.
l have to go.

- Sure. Good night.
- Good night.

Bye.

Come on, let's find your parents
and tell them the good news.

Oh, l don't know.

l mean,
are you sure now is the right time?

Are you kidding?
What better time? lt's perfect.

Okay.

- What?
- l know this is sudden,

but we are in love.

ln fact, l was hoping we could make
the announcement tonight.

- Absolutely not.
- Why not?

l mean,
aren't you guys happy for us?

Of course we are.

But maybe tonight
just isn't the best time to tell everyone.

Tell everyone what?

- Grandma.
- Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, this is wonderful. l told you.

- Didn't l tell you?
- Yes, you did, Mother.

You make such a beautiful couple.
Come on.

lt would make me very proud if you'd
let me make the announcement.

- No, Mother, please.
- Oh, absolutely.

Brenda.

Brenda.

- Jim, do something.
- lt's too late.

Stop the music.

Ladies and gentlemen,

this is one of the happiest moments
of my life.

Not only because we are celebrating

my son and daughter-in-law's 20 years
of blissful matrimony.

But because tonight,

l have the honor
of announcing the engagement

of my granddaughter Brenda Walsh
to Mr. Stuart Carson.

- What?
- Don't look at me, bro.

Wait a minute.

- Brenda, you didn't tell us.
- l didn't know. He just asked.

- But isn't it incredible?
- lncredible is not the word.

- That ring is at least three carats.
- Three and a half.

Looks like it was a little more serious
than you thought.

- Did you know anything about this?
- Not a thing.

Has your sister lost her mind?

l don't know, Mom.
She's pulled some doozies

but this one certainly takes the cake.

Bren, are you sure about this?

Oh, Donna, l'm in love.
What's the matter with that?

Please, you guys,
please be happy for me.

We are.

You bet we are.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Cute. He is cute.

- Hey, Dylan, how's it going?
- Stuart, so you do remember me.

Yeah, of course, man.
lt's been a long time.

Long enough, l hope.

What does that mean?

lt means
l hope you cleaned up your act.

l have,
but why is that any of your business?

Well, it's Brenda.
She's very important to me.

l just wanna make sure you know
that if you ever hurt her in any way,

you'll have to answer to me.

Ladies and gentlemen,
it is time to cut the cake.

Come on, everybody.

- Let's go.
- Here we go.

Speech. Speech.

- Thank you.
- Thank you all for coming.

lt's been an incredible evening.

lt's been an incredible 20 years.

l just hope the next 20
are as wonderful as the first.

Cut the cake.

Listen, l'll get us some cake.

Why don't you go back and get us
some champagne, all right?

Great.

Hi, l'll have two glasses-- No.

One glass of champagne, please,
and a glass of punch.

Sure. Do you have some lD?

- Excuse me?
- l'm only kidding.

Good.

lt looks like a great party.

You know, my parents got engaged
at my grandparents' 20th anniversary.

Or so they tell me.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Maybe that's what makes me
such a sucker for romance.

l guess it's genetic.

l cry at everything:
weddings, christenings,

even television commercials.

- So do l.
- Bar mitzvahs, Fourth of July...

You've got a great smile.

lt lights up your whole face.

Thank you.

- What's your name?
- Jesse.

Hi, l'm Andrea.

That's a beautiful name
for a beautiful girl.

Thanks.

These are yours.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

l love you, Brenda Walsh,
soon-to-be Brenda Carson.

Brenda Walsh-Carson.

lsn't that what l said?

l love you, Stuart.

Excuse me, guys, could l cut in?

- You? You never dance.
- Thanks.

Well, l think in this case,
l might have to make an exception.

- Do you know what you're doing?
- Not completely.

But if feels awfully good.

- So does cashmere, but you're allergic.
- Brandon--

l just don't want you to do something
you're gonna regret, that's all.

l won't. l promise.

- Okay. l'm gonna hold you to that.
- Okay.

Well, great party, kids.

- Oh, thanks.
- Great party.

Your grandmother and grandfather
are in your room.

- lf you go in there, be quiet, will you?
- Okay. Good night.

Oh, wow, l'm beat,
so l'm gonna go to bed.

Trying to make a quick getaway?

- Mom, Dad--
- Honey, just go to sleep.

We'll talk in the morning.

- l bet you will.
- Brandon.

You know, l wonder what would
happen if l took out just one piece.

Well, at least it'll give us
something to do tomorrow.

Good night, Brandon.

What a night.

How serious do you think this thing
with Mr. Carson and our daughter is?

Well, l know one thing:

That's a pretty serious
engagement ring.

You don't think that's what
made Brenda say yes, do you?

Oh, no, no, no, l don't think so.

- l hope not.
- Well, if they do go through with it,

l hope he makes her as happy
as you've made me.

l have a surprise for you.

Remember
when we first heard this song?

- l'll never forget it.
- Do you wanna dance?

l'd love to.

So, what are we gonna do
about Brenda?

Well, as Scarlett O'Hara said,

''We'll think about it tomorrow.''
