Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990–2000): Season 7, Episode 25 - Heaven Scent - full transcript

Mariah Murphy, the young black girl whom Brandon met in Texas (from the 'Remember the Alamo' episode), who's now an aspiring writer, arrives in Los Angeles for a visit and her quick kinship with Kelly bothers Tracy. Meanwhile, Rob's new movie is released which earns great recognition for his performance, but bad reviews for whole movie which makes Rob wonder if the movie business is really for him, and Valerie worries that she'll lose Rob when he tells her that he wants to quit the entertainment business and move back to his hometown. Clare has a crisis when her computer breaks down while she's writing a term paper which leaves her no time for Steve who goes to Rob's movie premiere solo. Also, David goes nuts trying to plan a special anniversary dinner for Donna.

Man, this suitcase
is dang heavy.

"Dang"? Boy, it's a
good thing you left Texas.

It's good to see you, Mariah.

I've missed you. Oh, likewise.

I'm just glad you remembered me.

Of course I remembered you.

Meeting you was the
highlight of my summer.

Well, you made quite
an impression on me, too.

And to think if your car hadn't

have broken down, I
never would've met you.

We only must've spent,
what, 24 hours together, but...



we sure shared a lot
in such a short time.

We talked a lot about, uh,
my family and your family.

And you talked a lot
about a girl named Kelly.

It was quite a
day in Hadley City.

I think they're still
talking about you.

Well, honestly, Brandon,

I can't say that I would've
been able to have

gone to New York
and write my book

and bang down
my publisher's door

if it hadn't have been
for you crossing my path.

Oh, I don't know about that.

Wait a minute.

You're a happy man.

You must've found somebody.



Yeah, yeah I did.

You're back with Kelly?

No, no, I'm with someone new,

but, uh, I think you'll
like her just the same.

Ah, here they are. Hey, guys.

You guys are late.

Sorry, traffic was hell.

Uh, Mariah, this is everyone,
everyone this is Mariah.

This is my better half, Tracy,

the star anchorwoman
of CUTV. Hi, Tracy.

Hi. I guess we'll be
seeing a lot of each other.

I'll be covering the
New Age Festival.

And she has your
seminar schedule.

Oh, great.

"Discovering Your
Guardian Angel," huh?

Sounds interesting.

Hi, I'm Steve Sanders.

I'm the guy who left Brandon
last year, way out yonder.

But I had just cause.

Her name's Clare.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

I swiped your
manuscript from Brandon,

so if he hasn't read
it yet, it's my fault.

Oh. Well, have you?

I'm working on this major
term paper right now.

But it's next on my list.

I read it.

You're Kelly. Yes, hi.

And by the way,
I loved the book.

Did you? Mm-hmm.

You must be tired.

Do you want some
tea or something?

Yes, I'd love some tea.

Great.

Well, either Mariah
met Kelly in a past life,

or you poured
your heart out to her

in Lonesome City, Texas.

Just be an angel, will you?

Well, it's a big night tonight.

I'll say.

I can't believe how
many calls I've had

from crew members
I got invited tonight.

Well, what do you know?

Rob Andrews shows
a little excitement.

Well, now I know why everyone

wants to come to Hollywood.

Sure does feel like
the end of a rainbow.

No, it's just the beginning.

Valerie.

I appreciate you stepping
in as my manager.

And I appreciate your patience.

It's all new to me.

Well, you're doing
great. Thanks.

So any reviews
in the papers yet?

No, not yet. That'll
be tomorrow.

Stop worrying.

The buzz on you is wonderful.

And in a week, it's
going to open nationwide.

Well, at least Mom
and Pop will make sure

everyone in Indiana sees it.

Only once?

Morning.

Hi. I wanted to
surprise you guys,

but, uh, I was too late.

Kelly already lassoed Mariah.

They went to the beach.

Mm-hmm.

Well, that means I get
you all to myself then.

Mm. Breakfast included.

Why do I feel like I've
awakened at the Gaylian Ranch?

That's funny, I woke up
with Hong Kong on my mind.

Really?

Yeah, I just thought, you know,

getting away like we did,

and getting to meet your dad...

it brought us to a
whole new level.

Yeah. Yeah, it was a good trip.

Brandon? Mm-hmm?

I hope you know you can
always come talk to me.

You know, like
you did with Mariah.

It really bothers
you, doesn't it?

That I talked to... Talked to
a complete stranger? Yeah.

Well, Tracy, haven't
you ever had anyone

come out of nowhere
and just sort of help you

put your life in order?

That's what Mariah did.

She helped me...

put the past behind me.

Good. I'm glad.

What exactly did you talk about?

A little of everything.

Kelly? That, too.

Well, what did you talk about?

You know, Trace,

this all happened
before I met you.

Yeah, I know.

Look, Mariah and I
are just friends, okay?

Okay.

But you don't go in for all this

New Age stuff, do you?

I'm trying to keep an open mind.

A lot of people
find comfort in it,

so who am I to judge?

Yeah, well, I guess I'm
just a country girl, you know?

I mean, I don't need
to jump on some

pseudo-spiritual
bandwagon to know who I am.

What?

What?

Why are you looking
at me like that?

Like what?

Like this.

No, I'm not.

Fine.

Guess it was just an illusion.

Silly me.

Don, do you have
any blank discs?

I have to back up my files.

Um, yeah.

Actually, I might have
some in my laptop bag.

Let me check, okay? Thanks.

Mm-hmm.

If low values

of D-H imply higher
Baryon standards,

what's the amount of... Clare.

I could really use some advice.

What?

Donna and I are
going out tomorrow.

Tomorrow night's kind
of a special evening,

and I-I want to do
something nice for her.

Something she
wouldn't expect from me.

Take her to church.

That will throw her.

Ha. Ha-ha.

Okay, maybe this
will help you, all right?

Donna, Kelly, and I were
making dinner the other night

and we were having
this conversation about

men and their barbecues
and how the utensils

from a Freudian standpoint,
could be construed as...

Never mind.

Anyway, she said,
you don't cook.

Yeah, she's right.

I don't, I'm the
king of take out.

That's it!

I can cook for her.

Dinner, dinner in
a lifeguard tower.

At night?

You'll get arrested.

She's coming.

Clare, I don't have any discs.

Oh, it's okay.

Sorry.

What?!

What?

Wow, what an amazing coastline.

Y'all are so lucky to
live here all year round.

Well, I don't know about you,

but I miss New York.

That city just has the
most amazing energy.

Oh, well, then you'll
have to come visit me.

Well, you know I've
secretly been thinking

of moving there
for graduate school.

You talk about
your town in Texas.

Beverly Hills can be
a very small town, too.

How's that? You
know, same circle,

same people, same old regrets.

By any chance does
this have anything to do

with you and Brandon?

Did he talk to you about me?

Oh, girl, I spoke to him
about my ex-boyfriend, too.

Well, I would be
lying if I said that

Brandon wasn't one
of the reasons why

I needed to make a change.

Leave, you know? Like you did.

Yeah, it's important to
know that you're moving on.

Not just running away.

I think it's a little of both.

So tell me how, did you
get involved with angels?

My grandmother.

Since I was about yea high,
she loved to tell me stories.

But that's not how I got

the idea about
writing a book on them.

Oh, come on, do tell.

I was at the library,
end of my shift,

pushing a cart down the
aisle, when a big old book

fell off the shelf and hit me
square on my crown chakra.

It was The Lives of the Saints,

and it was a thick book,
because Lord knows

there's been enough martyrs
down through the ages.

Anyway, the publisher
was out of New York.

And it was the same house
that ended up buying my book.

Wow, what a coincidence.

Oh, there are no coincidences.

Where are you from?

Hadley City, Texas, ma'am.

Where the steers and the beers
outnumber the tears and fears.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you doing?

I got to keep my hands
busy or I'm going to go crazy.

Well you can use your
hands to try on this suit.

Hey, Jeannie Fix coming
at you here with no mercy.

Okay, Adam's Children

opens tomorrow;
let's talk about it.

It's got a hubba-hubba
new hunk in it, Rob Andrews.

And let me tell you
girls, this guy is hot.

Too bad he isn't
the entire movie,

because the rest
of it you can flush.

I mean, it sucks,

people! Ugh!

Did you hear that crap?

Honey, relax, okay?

She's a deejay.

She's paid to run
off at the mouth.

Yeah, but a lot of
people listen to her.

She loved you.

Valerie, there's more
to this movie than me.

Look, this week is
going to be really intense.

You've got to be tough.

Me? Come here. Take
a look at these hands.

What do you see?

Uh, a couple of scars,

a lot of callouses. Why?

I'm not as thin-skinned
as you think.

Well, good.

Because there's going
to be a lot of people

watching your
every move tonight.

A lot of press and...

even if they like the
movie, I mean, uh,

they're gonna be still
taking their shots at you.

So you've got be strong.

You've got to be smart.

Yeah, I know.

But I still think
it's a good movie.

Yeah. It is a good movie.

Now, come here.

Let's get these
clothes off of you.

Many people have their
most vivid angel experience

when their best
laid plans fall apart.

For me, it was about five
minutes after I got off that bus

at the Port Authority
in New York.

I was mugged.

There were three of them.

They took everything,
including my manuscript.

Then all of a sudden,
out of nowhere,

this big huge man
come toward me.

I mean, he looked like-like
a gargoyle or something,

but he had all my things.

I checked it out.

He said, uh,

"I believe this
belongs to you, miss."

He had my purse, my luggage,

my money, child, my work.

And when I turned around
to thank him, he was gone.

Now, later I realized there
was something missing.

It was a little angel pin that
my grandmama had given to me.

So I ran to the
phone to call her,

and I said, "Grandmama,
I'm sorry, I-I lost your pin."

And she said, "Child,

"you didn't lose
it, you used it.

That kind man was
your guardian angel."

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well, I'm all aflutter.

Pack it up, guys.

Hey, that was great! Hey!

Thank you.

Hey, I wanted to hear some more.

Oh, buy the book.

Nice job, Mariah. Thanks.

If you guys like that.
I got a row of tickets

to tomorrow night's
Lunar concert.

You should come.
Uh, you know me...

A little of this stuff
goes a long way.

Yeah, me, too.

Come on, you guys,

check out this flyer.

The C.U. Outdoor Theater,
Kim Robertson, harpist...

What's not to love?

Okay, fine, you
talked us into it.

Brandon, we have plans.

Plans change.

Besides, I wasn't
taking no for an answer.

Hey, Silver. Hey.

Hey. Say it isn't so.

What?

You is what.

You're playing chef
for Donna, right?

What's going on? Wait a
second, did Clare tell you this?

I told her not to tell anybody.

She didn't tell
anybody... she told me.

Come on, fess up, what
are you gonna cook?

I'm just... I'm planning
something nice, okay?

Nice? Nice nice, or nice-nice?

Nice, nice... special
nice. Special nice.

And very private, Steve.
Private, I love private.

Oh, great, and there she is.

Look, could you just,
like, take off for a sec?

Hello, boys.

Hey.

Hi, Donna.

Bye, Donna.

Steve, you don't have to go.

Well, I... Actually, he does.

Thanks, Steve.

See you later, man. You didn't
have to be so rude, you know?

I didn't mean to be...
I just... I wanted...

I wanted to talk to
you alone for a second.

About what?

Tomorrow night.

I just, I want to make
sure that we're still on.

You know what, now that
you mention it, I'm not so sure.

Why? You know how I've

been having so much
trouble with this teacher lately,

Professor Langely?
Donna, Donna, you'll be fine.

I don't know, I mean, I've been so
busy taking care of my dad lately,

I have so much
work to catch up on.

So do it tonight.

Rob's premiere is tonight.

So drop it.

I don't want to drop it.

I can't believe you're
getting so twisted up

in this stupid
fashion course thing.

Ah, see, stupid to
you, not stupid to me.

Why are you being
so weird about this?

What do you mean, weird?

I don't know, I just don't get

why tomorrow
night's so important.

We go out almost
every night, anyway.

You know, forget it,
forget it, never mind.

No. David, wait.

Fine, okay, I
will study tonight.

I won't go to the premiere,

and you and I will
go out tomorrow night.

Okay.

You happy now? Mm-hmm.

Good.

So, what was it like working
with newcomer Rob Andrews?

Oh, he was terrific!

He's a natural, and
a very good kisser.

Oh. Yeah.

Thanks.

Rob, everyone in this film

talks about how great
you were to work with.

Well, thanks man,
that's real nice to hear.

Those are the opinions
I really care about.

All right. Thanks, guys,
for stopping. Thanks.

Any doubts? About what?

About your future.

Come on, I just want to make
it through the night. Okay.

Oh, Brandon, Tracy, come here.

You-you haven't met Rob yet.

No, I haven't... I was
waiting for the right time.

Nice to meet you, man.
Nice to finally meet you.

I hope you like the film.
Thanks, I'm sure we will.

Tracy, you look great.

Thanks. So do you.

Excuse me.

Rob is so gorgeous. Oh, I know.

Well, your leading
man is no slouch, either.

So, um, who else is coming?

I mean, I know Donna
called and canceled.

Um, Steve and Clare.

I wouldn't count
on Kelly, though...

Brandon said she's over at
C.U. getting her aura read.

Really? Ah, she gets
her hooks into Mariah

and suddenly is
enlightened, huh? Mm.

Clare, where are you?

Lost in the ozone. Go away.

I am not hanging up this phone

until you agree to come
out and play with me.

I can't.

What do you mean, you can't?

This premiere is awesome!

You wouldn't believe
the people that are here.

It's like... it's like
Planet Hollywood!

Clint! I see Clint!

Good, honey. Go
say hi, okay? Bye.

D-Don't you hang up on me!

Clare, you need to take a break.

Under the laws of probability,
your paper will still be there

when you get back, right, honey?

Honey, you don't
understand, okay?

I'm on a roll here.

This term paper is due.

You were on a
roll eight hours ago.

Now you're on a death march.

Look, Clare, what you need to do

is take that number-two
pencil out of your hair,

get rid of that leaky
pen behind your ear,

get out of those
stinky, smelly sweats...

Just... quit harassing
me, okay, Steve?

I want you to walk
over to the bathroom,

go into the shower,
take a warm, quick one,

pin up your hair, put on
some of that sexy underwear

and that long black dress...

You know, the goddess gown?

The one with the sparkles on it?

You like that dress?

Like it? That's my
favorite flavor, honey.

Especially when you wear
those three-inch pumps.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I can't.

What do you mean, you can't?

You have to...
Somebody's got to show

all these Hollywood wannabees

what true glamour's
all about, and that's you.

You think so, huh?

Oh, I don't know...

Damn it!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God,

my paper!

It's gone!

Well, reboot it.

I tried that, you idiot!

Thanks a lot... Look
what you've done.

What did I do?

Honey...

you've been out here for
half the movie... what's wrong?

Did you hear them in there?

Those people
snickering in front of us?

Sweetie, don't let those
jerks spoil your evening, okay?

Come on.

Come back inside with me.

That Rob guy is great.

Yeah.

Hey, let's just
keep moving, huh?

It's pretty crowded.

We'll pay our respects
to Rob at the After Dark.

You like the movie
that much, huh?

Rob was fine, it's
just the rest of it

kind of dragged, you know?

Kind of like you and me lately?

What are you talking about?

Just... your head's
been in the clouds.

Since Mariah arrived.

I didn't say that.

You didn't have to.

Hey, Rob, great job!

You're going to be a big star.

Thanks, man. So
you liked the movie?

Honestly?

You've got a lot better
movies in your future.

What's wrong with this one?

It's too soft.

We're going to have to rethink

the nationwide release.

But it'll do well on video.

We'll be talking.

Don't worry, honey, okay?

I mean, to hell with the movie.

I mean, they loved you.

That's what matters.

Okay?

Come on.

I would have to drink my coffee

with cream and sugar.

Okay, maybe this
is a little extreme.

You sure you know
what you're doing, Clare?

No.

Can't you just call the C.U.
computer science department?

I mean, they must
have people there

who can retrieve lost files.

I did.

They didn't spring anyone.

They have some crisis.

Some mainframe went down.

Can you make more coffee?

Yeah, good idea.

I have some
studying to do myself.

Yeah, what?

Hey, sexy, how you doing?

You almost finished?

I'm at the Peach Pit After Dark.

The party is awesome.

Oh, yeah, I'm finished.

No thanks to you.

Well, I would've
loved to have helped,

but what do I know
about applied physics

other than the
principle of friction?

You know,

I loathe you right now.

I love you, too. Listen,
put that dress on.

You've gotta get down here!

The premier party
is about to begin

and Valerie's got
us a power table.

Are you completely clueless?

Do you have any idea what
you've done to me here?

I've spent the last two hours

in computer hell thanks to you
and your stupid interruptions.

Hey, calm down.

You backed it up
all on disc, right?

No, I did not.

Because I didn't
have any discs, okay?

So, now 75 pages of data,

referential equations,
and summaries are gone!

Gee, I'm sorry, Clare.

Gee, I'm sorry, Clare.

What is that, your mantra now?

Hey, you don't have
to get hostile with me.

Yeah, and you don't have
to call anymore, do you?

I had a great time.

I don't care what anyone
says about the film,

you guys did a great job.

We appreciate that, Rob.

See you on the next one, man.

Hey guys, will you excuse us?

Can't keep the press waiting.

Ah, forget it. I'm not
facing the firing squad.

Rob, listen to me
carefully, okay?

You don't have to
defend this movie.

You didn't have any control
over the outcome, okay?

Just tell everybody how exciting

the experience was for you

and you can't wait
to do another movie.

Just move on, huh?

Absolutely. Come on.

Rob, Rob!

Despite rave reviews
for your performance,

several critics have seriously

knocked Adam's Children.
You got a comment?

Yeah, they're wrong.

It's a great movie.

Come on, the film's a
dud and everyone knows it.

Do you think this
will hurt your career?

You know, I can probably
answer that for him.

I was addressing
the question to Rob.

Let me handle this.

You know what,
lady, the only thing

your bad mouthing is gonna do is

hurt a lot of good
and talented people

who spent months
putting their blood,

sweat, and tears into making it.

Well, blood, sweat and
tears doesn't really cut it.

I mean, the movie stinks.

Have you ever made a movie?

Have any of you?

I didn't think so.

You people are too
busy tearing things down

to make anything.

Can we quote you on that, Rob?

You can blow it... Rob...

Guys, I'm really sorry,

he's just really
not used to this.

I hope you can give him a break.

Didn't he already get one?

David, turn the
flame down for me...

Nat, please! Don't
help me, okay?

I want to be able to tell
Donna I did this myself.

I know, but, you know,
you've got so much...

The directions say if I
use a quarter cup of olive...

No!

No!

No!

What are you doing?!

Great, now you
ruined my eggplant!

Your eggplant? What do you
want to do... burn down my kitchen?

Turn the burner off.

Okay. Great.

David,

you're on your own.

Hello.

David, hey, it's me.

Hey, hi.

Hi, where are you?

At the, uh, the Pit.

Oh, are you all right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

just, uh, somebody smoking.

You know, they should
have a law against that.

There is a law.

Anyway, David, I'm really sorry,

but I'm gonna have to
cancel out on you tonight.

What? No, you can't.

I have to, you don't understand.

Clare's computer
blew up last night.

I spent half the night trying to
help her put it back together.

I got, like, no studying done,

and now I'm totally exhausted.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm kind of tired of this, too.

David, please
understand this, okay?

We'll just do it another night.

Yeah, all right.

David, I'm sorry.

Yeah, I heard
you the first time.

Bye.

Bye.

So, how do you like
the City of Angels so far?

Oh, it suits me.

And your friends are very nice.

How would you know?

You've been held hostage
by Kelly the whole time.

Well, maybe it's the
other way around.

You know, you two
are very much alike.

Really?

How so?

I just think that you both

try to be very noble

and do the right thing,
very grounded in reality

but deep down inside
you're being pulled elsewhere.

Elsewhere.

Like where?

I don't know.

Maybe towards each other?

Is this your intuition talking?

Loud and clear.

Look, Mariah, Kelly
and I had our chance.

It didn't work out, so
now we're just friends.

End of story.

And you accept that?

Yeah, and so does Kelly.

Doesn't she?

If you have to ask,

maybe it's not the
end of the story.

What is going on in that
little Texan head of yours?

What, I just...

Oh, I just had a feeling
about you, tonight.

Well, I hope Tracy
is included in that,

because she is who I'm
taking tonight, you know.

Oh, I know.

And I'm trying to make it work.

I know.

And Kelly and I never
made much sense

when you really
think about it anyway.

So, why don't you do me a favor

and get to know
Tracy? She's a good kid.

And stop trying
to stir things up.

What? Me?

Hey.

Hi.

What are you doing?

Trying to find somebody
who said the movie was good.

Honey, every review said

you're the one good
thing it had to offer.

There'll be other roles,
better ones, you'll see.

Even after my
performance last night?

Well, from what I
know of this town,

a bad boy image is
not gonna hurt you.

Yeah, well, I don't think I like
what this town is doing to me.

Well, you sitting here
obsessing about it

is not gonna do you any good.

You're right.

That's why I'm packing it in.

What?!

I'm just not cut out
for this business.

Oh, please.

Are you crazy?

No, just the opposite.

This is no time
for self pity here.

You've been given
a million-to-one shot.

Don't get me wrong, I
know how lucky I've been.

But I'm going back to Indiana.

Don't do this.

I'm sorry.

Rob, you can't do this.

You have a future here.

Forget it. Forget it?

Forget me?

Look, I'm just not happy here.

Can't you understand that?

Do you understand how much work

I've put into you for the
last couple of weeks? Right.

So you're just like
everyone else in this town.

Worried about your piece of me.

Wait a minute.

You asked me to be your manager.

I didn't volunteer.

I was completely
fine the way we were.

But I am telling you,
right here, right now,

we have a contract.

And I am holding you
to it for your own good.

You're not going anywhere.

I'm gonna make this
easy on both of us.

I'm leaving.

You're fired.

You know what?

Go to hell.

Hey, what's going on?

It's a total disaster.

I've started over,

with only a third of my notes.

I'm sorry.

What's wrong with you?

I'm just kind of
worried about David.

He's getting... What?

I don't know.

I hate to say it, I
hate to even think it,

but he's starting to
behave weird again.

Like plans change

or things get rearranged,
he just flips out.

David would do anything for you.

I wouldn't call that weird.

I'd love a little
of that right now.

You don't see Steve here
in my hour of need, do you?

You rang?

What are you doing here?

Uh, I'll just leave
you two to... whatever.

Relax, Arnold.

I come bearing gifts.

What? What is that?

This is a removable hard drive

and that is a disc
utilities program.

I spent the entire morning

with two geeks from the
intrafraternity computer club

learning how to
use this software

just so I can recover your file.

Now, what'd you name it?

Uh... "AP

"dash-Physics

"dot-Arnold."

Come to papa.

That's my term paper?

That's it.

Great.

10 weeks of slaving over
quantitative equations,

theoretical juxtapositions...

Just relax, okay
it's transcribing.

There, is that more
what you had in mind?

Oh, my God.

You did it. Yeah.

There'll be some
holes to fill in

but I'm sure you
can handle that.

Where are you going?

My work here is done.

You're leaving?

Yeah, that's right, Clare.

You know, I don't know
much about applied physics,

but I do know one thing,

you can find yourself
a new punching bag.

Hey, Chip, is Tracy around?

She went to get coffee.

Is that her editorial wrap-up?

Yep, cued up and ready to roll.

Thanks, bro.

What is our
administration thinking?

A New Age Festival?

Although I did enjoy hearing

the stories of angel
expert, Mariah Murphy,

I've still got to wonder why
anyone would buy into this.

What's next?

A new age studies program?

A Ph.D in psychic channeling?

Checking up on me?

I'm the news
director. That's my job.

You don't like it.

No, I don't.

I think you've gone
out of your way

to slam the festival and Mariah.

Brandon, I'm not
slamming Mariah.

What do you want me to do?

Slant it to bolster
her book sales

because she's your friend?

What kind of journalism
would that be?

I just think you've inserted
a little envy into it, that's all.

Envy? Over what?

I don't know.

Maybe all the time she's
been spending with Kelly.

Yeah, well, I don't trust
the two of them together.

Why not?

I think they're
ganging up against me.

Trace, aren't you being
just a little bit paranoid?

Oh, yeah?

Well, it wasn't so long ago
that Kelly told me right to my face

that she was still
in love with you.

Does that sound

paranoid to you?

Does, uh,

this mean you're
not coming tonight?

Right.

How's it going?

Good. I finished my paper.

I think it's actually
better than it was before.

See.

I think you owe Steve
a little apology now.

Why? He's just
gonna rub it in my face.

Clare, just apologize.

It's the right thing to do.

What, are you my conscience now?

Do I need to be?

Hello?

Donna, Donna, hey, it's me.

I'm at the club, I need you
to get over here right away.

David, the club?
It's closed tonight.

Yeah, I know, I know.

Look, I can't talk
about it, all right?

Just get over here.

And come by yourself.

David, are you okay?

Are you coming or not?

Yeah, okay, fine, I'm on my way.

Uh, Donna? What?

Drive careful, okay?

Okay.

What?

I don't know, it's David.

Clare, he's really scaring me.

I think he's...

Crazy? Yeah.

He's not.

Trust me.

Okay.

Hey, I thought you were
coming to the concert.

I was. Now I'm not.

Rob trouble?

You know, I guess
it's just not in my cards

to hold onto anything good.

I wouldn't buy into
that if I were you.

Well, it's really
hard not to, Brandon.

I mean, I really wanted things

to work out with me and Rob.

So what's the problem?

He's too nice. He's too nice?

Hmm.

All right, well,

why don't you come
with me anyway

because misery
does love company.

Really, what happened?

Tracy and I are having

a philosophical
difference of opinion.

Which means you had a fight?

Copy.

So, come on, get up.
Get dressed, let's go.

Maybe a little harp
and Tibetan bell music

will be just what
the doctor ordered.

No, I think I'm just gonna

wallow in my misery
for a little longer.

You go on without me.

Have fun.

Okay.

See ya.

Bye.

David? David, where are you?

Over here.

What is this?

Well, this is our beach.

And this is our dinner.

I cooked.

Come on, relax,
take your shoes off.

You did cook.

Oh, this is incredible.

Yeah, well, I hope you feel
the same way after you taste it.

We have Cornish game hen

stuffed with wild
rice and mushrooms

and a vegetable julienne.

David, I...

I have to admit,

I was kind of worried
that you were...

Yeah, I know, I know,
going a little crazy.

Well, I have to admit that, uh,

my nerves are shot.

I oversteamed the vegetables

and I put a little too much salt

in the scallop potatoes.

So, uh, what is this all about?

What, you don't remember?

April 9th.

Think about it.

Five years ago.

Where were we?

Okay, I'm thinking.

I'm thinking real hard.

Okay, then I'll give
you a hint. Okay.

It was spring.

Love was in the air
and my father was

about to marry Jackie Taylor.

And we took a walk on the beach.

That we did.

That's when you
told me you loved me.

The first time I ever said it.

Yeah, me too.

And I never stopped.

I think it's real important

to remember where we
started, where we are,

and where we're going.

I love you.

I love you, too.

♪ ♪

Hey, you made it.

Where's Tracy?

She's uh, she's
not feeling well.

Oh.

Where's Clare?

Who cares?

I hear she's been
a little ornery lately.

I have had it.

I've had it.

I think it's time for a
change of scenery.

Maybe the monkhood.

Everything's been out
of whack this weekend.

♪ ♪

Are you Mr. Sanders?

Yes.

These are for you.

Thank you.

I guess there can be

more than one jerk in
our relationship, huh?

Absolutely.

Now, that's what
I call an apology.

Can I come in?

So...

So, I'm sorry
things turned ugly.

Me, too, uh...

Look, Rob, I'm really
glad you fired me.

I don't want to be your manager.

I just want you to stay.

I hope you changed your mind.

About leaving?

No, I'm sorry, Val.

I'm packed and ready to roll.

Back to Indiana, huh?

It's where I belong.

It's home.

So, um,

when are you coming back?

I'm not.

What about us?

If I were just a carpenter,
would you be with me?

I don't know.

I'm really gonna
miss you, though.

Come here.

Just like in the movies, huh?

I can't believe Mariah
never showed up.

She said she was sorry.

She had an emergency
meeting back in New York.

Come on, I want you to
read my physics paper.

There's this gap in it

on the principle of friction.

Friction? Nice night, eh?

You cold?

Yeah, I wasn't thinking.

That's all right.

Here, take my jacket.

Thanks.

I'm sorry,

I shouldn't have done that.

No, um...

Um...
