The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990–1996): Season 5, Episode 24 - Love in an Elevator - full transcript

The guys are throwing a bachelor party for Will. On the way, Will, Carlton, and Jazz get stuck in an elevator. They recall past events for each of them, shown in flashbacks.

[instrumental music]

Well, I got a pair of
eights.

Ah, sorry about that, bro.
I got a Dolly Parton.

- What's that?
- A bigger pair. Whaa!

Will, I've got a surprise
for your bachelor party.

I booked the penthouse suite
at the La Peer Hotel.

Really?

Oh, man,
I could just kiss you.

I could just kiss you, too.

But, perhaps, my time would be
better spent learning a talent.

Hey, he isn't making calls
on your bachelor party, is
he?



I mean, that's my job.

I mean, you have told him
that I'm the best man?

Uh.. See, what had happened..

At first, but then..

...he had called..

Will...go tell him.

[sighs]
Tsk. Next time I'm gonna let
Jazz kiss you.

Hey, Jazz, listen, um,
we need to talk, man.

Yes, we do, the Strip 'N Trip
just wanna know

if the hotel
will furnish extension cords?

Oh, yeah, and tell Naughty
Nelvina and The Naked Drill Team

to wear coats or they'll never
get past hotel security.

Okay.

Now, what was it
you wanted to talk about?



You're the best, man.

[instrumental music]

Now, a-are you positive
you can't see anything?

Yes, I am positive.

Super. Ow!

Now how could I miss
that big square head of yours?

Oh, look, come on, Will.

Now I've spent a lot of time
decorating

for your bachelor party.

Now I just want it to be
a surprise.

Oh, no, not another
Scooby-Doopinata.

Pssh. I wish.

Look, no offense, Scrappy,
but it's gonna be hard

to top the parties
I've been to.

(all in unison)
Go, Will. Go, Will. Go, Will.

Go, Will. Go, Will. Go, Will.

[upbeat music on speaker]

Hey, no.

Girl, I'm sure glad
we got rid of that nut.

[instrumental music]

Ah. You can't hang,
can you, baby?

[indistinct chatter]

What do you two think
you're doing?

Oh, I, I was trying
to get up to my room.

Hey, Tom, what was you doing?

I was trying to be
in the video.

- Man, this party is dull.
- No, man, this party is stupid.

No, no, no, this party is crazy,
flat, dumb, dumb, doodie.

You're the man. You're the man.

- You're the man.
- You're the man.

[both screaming]

You just wait,
I've set you up

with one heck
of a wingding, Will.

You won't regret
makin' me the best man.

Oh! Oh, yes. Um..

That's one little thing I wanted
to talk to you about, see.

What?

You know, being best man
does have its perks.

That was it.

C..

Jazz is the best man?

Then what the heck am I?

Short.

Hey, hey, hey,
come on, come on.

Now, you guys are both
my best men.

Carlton, you're the best man
for the wedding.

And Jazz is the best man
for getting the talent

for the bachelor party.

Tsk. Ugh.

He got me Rowanda,
the Rubber Lady.

Look, I'll have you know that
Stan, the world's smartest duck

was this close
to getting on Leno.

[snorts]

What the heck does, ahem,
supposed to mean?

Listen, this is no time
to fight, alright?

(Jazz)
You're right, my brother.

Tonight, we salute the
passin'
of one of the greats.

Ah, yeah, let's have
a moment of silence

for all the girls
that have found me irresistible.

Mirror, mirror on the wall

Jean-Claude Van Damme,
I'm fine.

You are my man.

Amen.

Do you like it?

Wow.

I love it.

- Alright, now take it off.
- Oh, wait, wait..

You, you know,
if-if-if somebody

was-was to walk in here
right now..

...they, they might think
you was hittin' on me.

Trust me,
if I was hittin' on you

you'd know it.

Really? How?

Okay, you made your point.

Hey, you're not the only one
who had to fight off

the women, bub.

This is Tina. Tina,
this is my brother, Carlton.

- Hi, Tina.
- Hi.

Uh, I love your towel.

Thanks. Well, I gotta go prepare
for debate practice.

You're on the debate team?

That is so cool.

Which one of these losers
is my date?

That would be me.

Uh, this is my cousin, Carlton.

Where's the rest of him?

I may be short,
but you know what they say

about short men
and tall women, don't you?

No. What?

I don't know,
just making conversation.

Hey, small stuff,
you wanna come back here

and check out the rest
of my merchandise?

How can anybody with a sorry
list like that be the best man?

That's it.

We're staying right here
until you decide

who is your best man.

Look, Carlton,
would you stop playin'?

Now, move.

Minimart here is right,
who's it gonna be?

Me or him?

You know what, in one minute,
y'all two

can Jell-O wrestle
for the title, okay? Okay.

[electricity crackling]

Oh, man...didn't your
mothers
ever tell you

don't play with buttons?

[knock on door]

Hello!

They can't hear you, bro.
The music's too loud.

Can I throw a party or what?

I don't believe this.

There's a python
and some triplets in there

and I'm stuck in here
with Ren and Stumpy.

Oh, come on, guy, cheer up.

They'll have us out of here
in an hour, tops.

We're out of food.
We're out of water.

I mean, how long
can we survive like this?

We've only been in here
for five minutes, Carlton.

Get a grip.

Get off of me.

Let's just relax.

I've been in
plenty worse situations

than this. Trust me.

[yelling]
Earthquake!

Baby, it was just
a little earthquake.

Baby, no, listen. Listen, no.
The ground moved, okay?

The ground. The ground moved.

Nobody was bothering it,
it just moved, alright?

But it's over now
and we're fine.

I am not fine, alright?
I'm a grown man.

And I'm sittin' under the table
huggin' a teddy bear.

- I am not fine.
- Uh-oh.

Well, what's the matter?

Um, my water broke.

Oh, that's cool, we got another
one right here in the fridge.

[indistinct chatter]

And Dougie is a barn dog.

Unbelievable.
Will Smith apologizing.

My sisters,
welcome the newest member

of Kappa Phi Gamma, Lisa Wilkes.

- Alright.
- Alright.

Hey, wait, wait, wait.
Wait, whoa, whoa, hold up.

Wait, y'all-y'all just going
to leave me hangin' up here

like a piece
of Rotisserie Gold, huh?

Take my baby girl
to Palm Springs?

Oh, you've done it now, boy.

- 'I'm really mad now.'
- No, no, no, no!

[screaming]

- Oh!
- Oh, oh.

- The engine's dead.
- What?

Yeah.

Oh, so I, uh, I guess
we're going down, huh?

Faster than a bucket of chicken
at "Oprah's."

Oh, so I should probably
just confess

all the nasty things
I've done

with your daughter, huh?

Especially seeing as how,
in any second now

we're gonna be splattering

all over those mountains
down there.

Let me tell you something.
I'm from Philly.

You got to wake up pretty early
in the morning

to get me with some old..

[door slams]

Mr. Adams?

Mr. Adams?

Mr. Adams?

[engine rumbling]

[screaming]

And I came out of that
without a scratch.

So just calm down, alright?

Shh.

Listen.

I know that sound anywhere.

- What sound?
- A Wonderbra hittin' the floor.

Let me out! Let me out!

This is all your fault,
you finger-lickin'
ragamuffin.

Who are you callin' muffin,
Little Debbie?

Alright, alright,
stop it, stop it.

Come on, ain't no time
to tootsie roll, fool.

Fight like a man.

Alright, guys, guys.

[grunting]

[gasps]
Okay. Nobody move.

Ah..

- Ahh.. Ahh..
- Choo!

[all screaming]

[all screaming]

[chuckles]

We stopped.

[laughing]

We stopped! It's a miracle!

Wow! Gravity. What a rush.

- 'Hello, elevator repairman.'
- We don't have time to chat.

- We're stuck in here!
- Shut up, Jazz.

That's the elevator repairman.

Help!

(male #1)
'Just stay calm.
We'll get you out of there.'

'Can't guarantee it'll be
in one piece.'

Man, I'd rather be anybody
but myself right now.

Well, it certainly
wouldn't be the first time.

Okay, now, just remember,
you're from Connecticut

and you transferred
to Bel-Air Academy

and you row on the crew team.

Now, where did you
transfer from?

- Bend over.
- It's Andover.

We're going back home.

Ah. Mr. Banks,
did you forget something?

Uh, you know,
I'm glad you asked.

I forgot to give you the number
to my direct line.

Ah, look, I'm very flattered,
but I..

You know, that is an absolutely
intoxicating fragrance

that you're wearing.

Uh..

Come closer.

Hey-y-y.

That's a fake mustache.

No, it's not.

[gasps]
Yes, it is!

No, it's not.

Look, I don't know who you are,
but I'm calling your

real parents right now.

- Will.
- No, it's not.

Is that fat guy followin' us?

What fat guy? Come on.

Excuse me, is there some reason
why you're followin' us?

- Will?
- Well, it ain't Fat Albert.

[crying]
We've been in here for hours,
man.

I don't wanna die.

I wanna live.

Look, at least you got a chance
to live life to its fullest.

I only had one woman. One!

I don't want this to end.

It doesn't have to.

Will you marry me?

[laughing]

You are too adorable for words.

Can I give you a kiss goodbye?

Yes.

Tomorrow morning.

Well, what time
should I come back?

My life has been so
pathetic.

No, it hasn't.

Well, yeah, it has.

Who cares? It's over.

When the elevator was falling
and I thought we were gonna die

your life flashed
before my eyes.

If I only had your magic
with the women.

Come on, Carlton,
all these years, man

haven't you caught on?

I mean, half the battle is the
lyrics you toss at the honeys.

Girl, you look so good,
I wish I could plant you

and grow a whole field
of y'all.

Girl, I got to tell you.

That suit look like
a piece of good God

wrapped up
with some have mercy

with a side of oomph!

I think I've seen
your picture somewhere before.

Oh, yeah, that's right,
it was in the dictionary

next to "Ka-blam!"

- Two cappuccinos, please.
- Mm.

Well, I'm hoping
you like it dark

hot, sweet and, uh,
with a spoon in it.

Look, um, miss,
I'd just like to apologize

on behalf of my gender
for his rude behavior.

- That's okay.
- No, it's not.

He-he had no reason
to act like that.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Look, um,
could I call you sometime?

- Yeah...call me.
- Thank you.

Yo, baby, I know your feet
must be tired

'cause you've been runnin'
through my mind all day!

Come here, baby.

Oh, come, come, my brother.

You don't always leave
the party with a favor.

That's it, I didn't come all the
way here from Philly to hear--

- Oh, it's gonna happen--
- I've had it..

[clamoring]

- Excuse me! Excuse me!
- You need to shut up.

You know what?
You ain't never gonna change.

- Oh, give me the last word.
- Oh, give me the last word.

- Oh, no, you're not.
- Oh, no, you're not.

- Oh, yes, I am.
- Oh, yes, I am.

- Damn!
- Damn!

Yeah, sure,
bring up the one time

that a woman walks away
from me.

- One time?
- One time?

Hold, hold, hold it, baby, see,
now, I noticed you noticin' me.

So, I just want to put you
on notice

that I noticed you, too.

And?

And to let you know
that I might

consider letting you
be with me.

Is that what passes
for a compliment around
here?

- Look, baby, listen.
- No, you listen.

If you want a shot
at being with me

maybe you should try
talking to me

like a human being, okay?
Got it?

Actually, baby, you got it,
but I take donations.

You're so ugly, she tied
a pork chop around your neck

just so the dog
would play with you.

Well, you so ugly,
your mama had to feed you

with a slingshot.

You're so ugly,
that ain't a fade on your head

that's your hair runnin' away
from your face.

Well, now, you know that
Hank Farley is not your type.

I was saying, you-you strip away
the shoulder pads

and the muscles,
and the dimples

and what you got?

You.

Does this look like a place
to have fun?

I don't think so. Ain't nobody
going to have no fun up in here.

Not me, not you, not her.

And definitely not me.
Goodbye, Will.

Whoa, baby.
Oh, come back here.

What is her name?

[elevator creaking]

- Oh, no, no, no!
- Oh!

[all screaming]

Carlton, Carlton, man, I'm sorry
about all those short jokes.

You know, it really took
a big man to handle it.

And, well,
you tried your best, okay?

I love you, man.

I love you too, Will.

You too, man.

Somebody give me some love.
Please!

[breathing heavily]

Oh!

- 'We're goin' up.'
- 'We're gonna live.'

I'm gonna have one more
chance
to do the wild thing.

Get off me.

Whew! The guest of honor
is in the house.

Party over here.

[upbeat music]

Oh, oh, oh.

[indistinct chatter]

(Geoffrey)
Hey, good evening,
Master William.

Absolutely bumping party.

Oh, yeah.
Thanks a lot, Geoffrey.

Geoffrey?

But you told me
your name was Will.

No, I said I was Will-ing.

[chuckles]

(Philip)
'Hold the elevator.'

- Uh-oh.
- Going down.

(Will)
'Oh, no, no!'

'No!'

Tsk. My poor baby.

Your whole life
must have flashed

before your eyes.

- Kiss me.
- I'd love to.

Hello.

[chuckles]

Hmm.

Not really.

All I could think about
was you.

- Aww.
- Hm. Mmm.
