When Jennifer's old college boyfriend comes to town, Jennifer wants Larry to finally tell her where their relationship is going. But Larry, thinking that Jennifer is a "woman of the 90's", ...
* Sometimes the world
looks perfect
* Sometimes you just
get a feeling
* Like you need
some kind of change
* Nothing's gonna
stand in my way
* This flame in my heart
* And a long lost friend
* Standing tall
on the wings of my dream
* Rise and fall
on the wings of my dream
* The rain and thunder
the wind and haze
* I'm bound for better days
* It's my life and my dream
* And nothing's gonna
stop me now *
Cousin. Cousin.
Try.
Everybody loved it.
Egg rolls?
Yeah.
Well, they look safe enough.
(CHUCKLES)
Balki, these are the best
egg rolls I've ever had!
Oh, go on with you--
No, I mean it!
Well, as my cooking teacher,
Mr. De Rigeur said
"Balki, cuisine is an art.
That's why we call it
cuisine-art."
What gives it that
sort of bittersweet taste?
Well, uh...
Cousin, you know, a chef
is never supposed
to reveal his secrets.
But I added a Myposian delicacy.
I didn't think you had it
in this country
and then I found it
down by the lake
in a grocery store
called Ned's Bait Shop.
"Ned's Bait Shop?"
Yeah. Ned had no produce at all,
but his meat case was stunning.
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
Oh, hi, Jennifer.
Hi, Larry.
BALKI:
Oh, Jennifer!
Jennifer! Can I...
Can I offer you some,
some egg rolls a la Mypoise
Oh, thank you, Bal...
No, no, no. No, no, no.
...ki, but I just ate.
Oh, okay. Maybe later.
They, they really should curdle
for about an hour.
Get back in there.
Stay.
(CHUCKLES)
Larry, there's something
I need to ask you.
Well, sure. What is it?
who wants to have dinner
with me Friday night.
But I'd be happy to say no
if you want me to.
No, don't be silly.
Have dinner with your friend.
What's her name?
Bill Madden.
That wouldn't be a guy,
would it?
Absolutely not!
Uh, so you have,
uh, dinner with a guy
who sat next to you
in zoology lab. Big deal.
Actually, I dated Bill
for four years.
No! No, no, no. No.
He's an old friend.
Have dinner with him.
I insist.
You wouldn't be upset?
Upset? Me? No, no, no. No.
Have a good time.
Say hello to Bill for me.
Well, okay.
Bye-bye.
(CRYING)
I wanna die...
I wanna die!
Cousin...
(SOBBING)
What's wrong with you?
What's wrong with me?
What is wrong with me?
Jennifer is going out
with her old boyfriend.
Oh, is that all?
No, that's a horrible thing!
I don't want Jennifer going out
with another guy!
But, cousin, cousin,
I don't get it.
I just heard you tell her
it was all right.
If you didn't want her to go,
why you don't just say no?
Balki, the woman I love
tells me she wants to go out
with another man
and you expect me to say no?
What? Do you think I'm stupid?
Is this a trick question?
No. No, it is very simple.
Jennifer is a woman
of the nineties.
Nineties?
I would have guessed
late twenties, tops.
Not a woman in her nineties.
A woman of the nineties.
And if you read any of those
women's magazines
you know that what she wants
is a man of the nineties.
Well, cousin, in 60 years
you'll be a man in your nineties
and all your problems
will be solved.
No, no, not a man
in his nineties.
A man of the nineties.
And a man of the nineties
isn't possessive or jealous.
And if I had told Jennifer
I didn't want her to go
on this date,
she would have thought
I was possessive and jealous.
And then,
she would have dumped me
But, but...she is going out
with another man
and you are miserable.
I know that.
But that's how you keep
a woman in the nineties.
Haven't you understood
a word I've said?
Let me explain it again.
Let me explain it. It's simple!
It's really very, very simple.
This little piggy
went to market.
This little piggy
stayed home.
This little...
(SIGHS)
Larry Appleton is a jerk!
It didn't go well?
I just asked him
if he would mind
if I had dinner
with another man.
Do you know what he had
the nerve to say to me?
"I insist. Have a good time.
Say hello to Bill for me."
I've been dating Larry
for over three years
and I still don't know
where our relationship is going.
Well, I think
you should just ask him.
I know what I'll do.
He'll have to say no to that,
and then I'll know really feels.
Thanks a lot, Mary Anne. You
always give me such good advice.
Glad I could help.
I'm ensuring that
she'll be mine forever.
Now do you understand?
some reference material
on the subject?
Balki, let me put it
another way, okay?
Please, any other way.
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
(GROANS)
(SIGHS)
Oh, hi! Uh, come on in.
Larry, there's something else
we need to talk about.
Balki, we need to be alone.
Cousin, you're right.
Jennifer, could you
excuse us, please?
No. Balki, Jennifer and I
need to be alone.
Well, then I should be
the one to leave.
Yes.
I don't know why you make
everything so complicated.
(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Larry, we've been seeing each
other for three years.
Yes. Yes, we have.
Cousin, we have to talk.
Balki, Jennifer and I
are in the middle
of a conversation.
I'll meet you at the lamp.
(GRUNTS)
I'm sorry.
(SIGHS)
What is it?
Cousin, I was just putting
my Silly Putty back in my egg
when I had a realization.
Now, I know that some things
are very personal
and there are times when
a person shouldn't interfere.
In fact, in Mypos
we have a saying...
(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Just don't be so dopey.
(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Exactly.
Literally translated, it means
"When a man is rinsing out
his underwear...
...don't drop by."
LARRY:
Is there a point to this?
Cousin, you should tell Jennifer
how you really feel.
Balki, Jennifer is a woman
of the nineties.
I am a man of the nineties.
Are you a man of the nineties?
Ah! Hah!
Okay?
Are you a man of the nineties?
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Are you? Are you?
Are you? Are you a man
of the nineties?
No. No, I'm not.
Then I suggest you
go to your room
and we'll talk about this
when you are.
That seems fair.
Now...where were we?
We've been seeing
each other for three years.
Yes.
about us dating other people?
Other people?
Well, uh...I guess
that would be...all right,
I guess.
It would?
Uh, maybe I'm not making
myself clear.
You see, I don't just mean
one date with one person.
It could be several dates
with one person
or one date with several people
or several dates
with several people.
There are several possibilities.
What do you think?
Well, um...
If you think
that's, uh, a good idea...
...so do I.
So, you're saying that
it wouldn't bother you
if we both dated other people?
Bother? Oh, no, no.
It wouldn't bother me,
if it wouldn't bother you.
Well, okay, how about this?
I don't think we should see
each other at all.
Goodbye, Larry.
I, uh, I know I'm just
a simple Mypiot boy
and...I may never
be a man in my Nikes but...
...from where I'm standing...
...you're lookin'
at tail lights, dude!
(CAR ENGINE REVVING)
Well, there they go again.
It's been fourteen days
You'd think by now
she'd be sick of gettin'
in and out of that Porsche.
Cousin, uh... What do you say
we go out and get a couple
of sky high sundaes?
No, I wanna be here
when they get back.
Cousin, enough. Is too much.
You've got to pull
yourself together.
Now, come on,
move it along, buddy.
Move it along.
Just keep movin'.
I have no reason to leave.
Life outside this apartment
is meaningless.
Life inside
the apartment is meaningless.
But my pajamas are here.
Okay, buddy, park it
on the couch. On the couch.
On the couch.
Move it, please.
Listen to me.
My mama done told me...
...there are two times in life
when you've got to tell people
what your true feelings are.
One is when someone is sticking
a sharp thing in your ear.
Then you say...
"Please, take that sharp thing
out of my ear."
The other is when you
love someone.
And then you say, "I love you!"
It's important
not to get the two mixed up.
But Balki,
if I tell Jennifer I love her
she'll just reject me again.
And I couldn't stand
that much pain.
Oh, cousin.
I-I-I've gotta stop thinking
about her or I'm gonna go crazy.
I've gotta try to forget her.
So if you're my friend
...nameless blonde woman.
Now who are we talking about?
Jennifer.
Jennifer?
No!
Just promise me, you won't
mention her name again!
Promise you'll never scare me
like that again!
Okay.
Okay.
I promise.
I promise.
Thank you.
I'll be in my room...
...destroying anything
that reminds me
of that nameless blonde woman.
(SIGHS)
I'll start by destroying
all her love letters.
Oh, God!
She never wrote me
any love letters!
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
Hi, Mary Anne.
Uh, Bill told me he's taking
Jennifer to Chez Fino tonight.
Oh, I love that restaurant!
They have those little snails
in puff pastry
and if you poke them out,
they go walking, walking...
Balki.
Bill is going to ask
Jennifer to marry him.
(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Oh! Pardon my Myposian.
I can't let this happen.
I...
I have to get cousin Larry
to that restaurant!
And then what will you do?
(SIGHS)
I don't know.
Maybe take in a movie?
(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(PIANO MUSIC)
Bartokomous,
party pf two.
Yes, sir.
Well, this is nice.
I'm glad you talked me
into this.
You're, you're a new man.
And maybe tomorrow, you
can tie your own shoes.
(LAUGHS)
Oh!
I have a table waiting for you
right over here.
Oh, well, why go that way when
we can take the scenic routes?
Cousin, look at this view!
Oh.
Well, this is magnificent.
Would you look at that view?
Fabulous, isn't it?
Lovely! And is...
Is that a real oil painting?
Yeah, that's, that's real oil.
There's a raw umber
in the foreground there.
It's fantastic. And look at
this, cousin! The desserts!
Look, they have your favorite,
"Lemon meringue pie!"
Mmm. Too much sugar for me.
Ha, ha, ha.
Gentlemen, your table.
Oh, cousin...
Yeah.
Cousin, uh, would you
I-I can't be looking at those
desserts, you know. I...
(SIGHS)
Well, here...
(CHUCKLING)
(SIGHS)
This is nice...
of that nameless blonde woman.
Except possibly for Jennifer
sitting over there
with her boyfriend.
(CLATTERING)
You're, uh...
Ha, ha.
I'm not gonna get annoyed.
Oh, that's good.
I'm gonna kill you.
Oh, that's bad.
I'm leaving.
No, cousin, you can't do that.
Well, you can't stop me!
(GROANS)
Cousin, you have to tell
that nameless
blonde woman how
you feel about her.
Balki, let me go.
No!
Oh, look,
is that Wayne Newton?
Wayne!
(THUDDING)
(PIANO MUSIC)
Who had the Cousin Larry?
Do you know these people?
I'm afraid so.
Cousin Larry has something
he wants to tell you.
Uh, we're in the middle
of a very private moment.
Eat your broccoli!
Cousin, go ahead.
Well...
Uh...uh...uh...
Jennifer, what he wants
to tell you is...
Jennifer, let me just say...
Balki. Balki.
Balki, Balki...
Let me just say it!
(BABBLING)
Uh, yes.
Well...
Uh...uh...uh...
Jennifer...
Please take that sharp thing
out of my ear.
Uh...
And I wanted to tell you
the first time I saw you
in the health club.
And then we started dating
and I wanted
to tell you again.
And, and then a couple of weeks
ago, when you came down
I really wanted to tell you.
But I didn't.
So, I'm telling you now.
(EXHALES)
What are you telling me?
You do?
Yes, I love you.
And I-I don't want you
goin' out with other guys.
Boy, he's fast.
Jennifer, if you say yes to me
you'll never
want for anything.
and...beautiful children.
Here's the ring, sweetheart.
It's yours, if you'll say yes.
Oh, my Lord!
Oh, my Lord!
Okay, cousin, you're up.
Take your best shot.
you've got two strikes
against you.
Go, baby, go,
baby, go, baby, go!
(PIANO MUSIC)
Jennifer, I can't promise you
a magnificent home.
Or all the money
you'll ever need.
And there's a good chance
our children will be short.
But I want you to know...
...nobody's gonna love you
as much as I do.
So I think it would be...
...just...really...good...
...if you married me.
Yes, Larry. I'll marry you.
You will?
Mm-hmm. Yes.
Larry, I love you.
Oh. Oh. Oh.
Oh, oh, oh. Oh.
(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Look, I know it was
a horrible night for him.
But Bill asked Jennifer
out to dinner
he should have paid the check!
Cousin, let it go.
You got the girl!
You're right.
(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Balki...
...this is the most wonderful
night of my life.
Jennifer loves me
as much as I love her
and I never would have found
that out if it weren't for you.
Oh.
Thank you.
Cousin, you're welcome.
I could not
be happier for you.
You are going to
be married to Jennifer
for the rest of your life.
Yeah, it's gonna be wonderful.
Well, it certainly is, because
cousin, just think of it.
Every hour of every day
for the rest of your life...
...you will have
the joy of knowing
you have someone
to take care of.
Every, every, every minute
of every hour
of every day
for the rest of your life
you'll have someone
who depends on you.
Someone who needs you.
Someone who's very happiness
rests in your hands.

This is nice...
of that nameless blonde woman.
Except possibly for Jennifer
sitting over there
with her boyfriend.
(CLATTERING)
You're, uh...
Ha, ha.
I'm not gonna get annoyed.
Oh, that's good.
I'm gonna kill you.
Oh, that's bad.
I'm leaving.
No, cousin, you can't do that.
Well, you can't stop me!
(GROANS)
Cousin, you have to tell
that nameless
blonde woman how
you feel about her.
Balki, let me go.
No!
Oh, look,
is that Wayne Newton?
Wayne!
(THUDDING)
(PIANO MUSIC)
Who had the Cousin Larry?
Do you know these people?
I'm afraid so.
Cousin Larry has something
he wants to tell you.
Uh, we're in the middle
of a very private moment.
Eat your broccoli!
Cousin, go ahead.
Well...
Uh...uh...uh...
Jennifer, what he wants
to tell you is...
Jennifer, let me just say...
Balki. Balki.
Balki, Balki...
Let me just say it!
(BABBLING)
Uh, yes.
Well...
Uh...uh...uh...
Jennifer...
Please take that sharp thing
out of my ear.
Uh...
And I wanted to tell you
the first time I saw you
in the health club.
And then we started dating
and I wanted
to tell you again.
And, and then a couple of weeks
ago, when you came down
I really wanted to tell you.
But I didn't.
So, I'm telling you now.
(EXHALES)
What are you telling me?
You do?
Yes, I love you.
And I-I don't want you
goin' out with other guys.
Boy, he's fast.
Jennifer, if you say yes to me
you'll never
want for anything.
and...beautiful children.
Here's the ring, sweetheart.
It's yours, if you'll say yes.
Oh, my Lord!
Oh, my Lord!
Okay, cousin, you're up.
Take your best shot.
you've got two strikes
against you.
Go, baby, go,
baby, go, baby, go!
(PIANO MUSIC)
Jennifer, I can't promise you
a magnificent home.
Or all the money
you'll ever need.
And there's a good chance
our children will be short.
But I want you to know...
...nobody's gonna love you
as much as I do.
So I think it would be...
...just...really...good...
...if you married me.
Yes, Larry. I'll marry you.
You will?
Mm-hmm. Yes.
Larry, I love you.
Oh. Oh. Oh.
Oh, oh, oh. Oh.
(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Look, I know it was
a horrible night for him.
But Bill asked Jennifer
out to dinner
he should have paid the check!
Cousin, let it go.
You got the girl!
You're right.
(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Balki...
...this is the most wonderful
night of my life.
Jennifer loves me
as much as I love her
and I never would have found
that out if it weren't for you.
Oh.
Thank you.
Cousin, you're welcome.
I could not
be happier for you.
You are going to
be married to Jennifer
for the rest of your life.
Yeah, it's gonna be wonderful.
Well, it certainly is, because
cousin, just think of it.
Every hour of every day
for the rest of your life...
...you will have
the joy of knowing
you have someone
to take care of.
Every, every, every minute
of every hour
of every day
for the rest of your life
you'll have someone
who depends on you.
Someone who needs you.
Someone who's very happiness
rests in your hands.
