02:16Hello. Fine. Great. Wonderful. Terrific. Could we talk about this later?
02:25Hey, so we're having a little fight. Alright, it's a big fight.
02:34How big?
02:35Moderately big. I mean, we're not talking lawyers, we're just not talking.
02:39But it comes at a wonderful time, we're going to this mountain resort for a romantic weekend.
02:44Ninety dollars a day to argue in a pine forest.
02:48Why are you fighting? You have the perfect marriage.
02:51Oh, Vicky, honey. Every marriage has its problems. You work them out, that's all.
02:57Hey, don't worry. Why am I comforting you?
03:02Johnny Mathis. Born in San Francisco with long legs and a high voice, had a difficult choice to make.
03:10Between representing his country as an Olympic track star and a promising career as a solo recording artist.
03:16Aren't we glad he chose the latter? After all, John, chances are your chances were awfully good.
03:29Cassie, I'd love to take a chance with you.
03:33You're taking a big chance right now.
03:40Excuse me.
03:41Yeah, I'll be with you in one minute, sir.
03:43I don't believe it.
03:44Honest. One minute.
03:47Lois?
03:48Yeah.
03:50Frank.
03:51It is you.
03:52Oh, my God, Frank.
03:55Sorry. Excuse me.
03:57Please. You, you look just like you did in high school.
04:05And you look so good.
04:08Are you still married to, uh...
04:10Frank.
04:11Yeah, you're Frank.
04:12Bill, Bill. Yes, I'm married to Bill. I'm still...
04:15Lois.
04:16Hi.
04:17Hi.
04:18Uh, Lois, Table Six has a strange request. They'd like their appetizers before their desserts.
04:24Sorry.
04:25Lois, sorry doesn't feed the little monkeys.
04:28You're insulting the customers.
04:29I was referring to your children.
04:34Uh, if you'll excuse me, I'm just, uh, so sorry.
04:37Whenever I wear this outfit, they expect me to wait on the tables.
04:40Bill.
04:42I, uh, I looked for you at the reunion. I was really disappointed when you didn't show up.
04:46Oh, you would have been more disappointed if I had. I was about 14 months pregnant.
04:50I bet you looked great.
04:51I was a zeppelin.
04:53No, I would have, I would have loved to have been there. God, it must have been great to see everybody.
04:57Do you remember all that nonsense about you and me being the cutest couple on campus?
05:00Yeah, I love that nonsense.
05:03Well, I went to the reunion, looked around, and guess what? We got cuter.
05:09Or I could recommend the Beef Wellington.
05:14Okay, that's $89. Here's $90. The rest is for you.
05:18Gee, thanks. Looks like it's gonna be a merry Christmas after all.
05:23I'm sure you must be getting hungry, and I know I'm getting in trouble, so maybe you better order.
05:32I'll have the Beef Wellington.
05:33Beef Wellington. And would you like a house salad or a cream of watercress?
05:37Whatever gets you back here sooner.
05:39Cream of watercress.
05:43One cream of watercress.
05:44Who's the hunk?
05:45Frank?
05:46Oh, uh, just a guy I used to know.
05:48Just a guy?
05:49Where is my blush on?
05:51You don't need it.
05:52I don't?
05:53No, just seeing this guy makes your cheeks rosy.
05:55Cassie, he's just an old friend.
05:57Yeah, nice hair, nice face. Gee, I wonder how we can get him to stand up.
06:01I'll try whistling the Star Spangled Banner.
06:04What's going on?
06:05Oh, it's his old flame just turned up, and we let her climb the plank.
06:09What table is he at? Oh, never mind, I'll find him.
06:12Dot, Dot, good.
06:14Hey, this is no big thing. Frank is just this good-looking, fun-loving, kinda crazy, bright, warm, sensitive guy that I dated all through high school, and that I never quite got over.
06:30This is silly. I feel like a schoolgirl.
06:32Hey, we all love guys we never got over.
06:34I remember my high school English teacher.
06:36You know the type, tweed jacket, beard, wrote his own poems.
06:39His farewell to a lad from Barcelona knocked me out.
06:44But I don't think he knew I was alive.
06:46What'd you expect from a guy who writes poems to young Spanish boys?
06:51Well, girls, it's been very nice reminiscing with you, however...
06:54Lois, Lois, hot. He's hot stuff.
07:00By the way, there's one more thing I'd like to know. Did you and old Frank out there ever...
07:05Cassie, no, we didn't.
07:07Figures.
07:10I was 17 years old. I was saving myself for my husband.
07:15So you're the one.
07:18You ask how much I need you.
07:24Must I explain?
07:25Hey, I need you.
07:26Oh, my darling.
07:27You ask how long I love you.
07:31You ask how long I love you.
07:36Until you're true, until the twelfth of November.
07:39That song sound familiar?
07:41Yeah.
07:42Until you're true, until the twelfth of November.
07:45That song sound familiar?
07:47Not the way he sings it.
07:50The twelfth of never. Remember the spring fling?
07:52How could I forget? You had the band play it, what, ten times that night?
07:55It was the only ballad they knew.
07:57Then we drove up to your folks' cabin and you turned on the hi-fi.
08:01Started slow dancing.
08:02You turned the lights down.
08:04And you got in the car and locked all the doors.
08:07Oh, I was so naive.
08:08Yeah, so was I. I had the keys.
08:13You married?
08:14I was.
08:15Lois, if the walk is too far, I could have table five come out and get their own drink.
08:21Going.
08:22Good.
08:24How long are you going to be in town for?
08:27Oh, just until morning.
08:28Oh, that's too bad. We have so much to catch up on. It would have been nice to...
08:31I tell you what. I'm staying downstairs at this hotel, but I have to meet a guy for a drink.
08:35So, why don't you take this?
08:37And if I'm a few minutes late, just make yourself comfortable.
08:41Oh, Frank, I don't think I could. I mean, I wouldn't...
08:46If you can't make it, just leave the key at the desk. But I'd love to see you.
08:52We gotta talk.
08:53About what?
08:54Just walk.
08:58What? What is it?
08:59I can't talk to you in here. I'll talk to you in there.
09:01Excuse me. Do you think you can get this to the table while it's still food?
09:06In a minute, Mario. We've got problems.
09:08You know, I like waiters better. Sure, they drink, they gamble, they steal, but at least they don't have problems.
09:17Dot, you can't be serious.
09:19Yes, I am. I just saw Lois' old boyfriend slip her his room key.
09:24Oh, come on. Lois wouldn't go to a man's hotel room. She's married.
09:29Do you want to tell her or should I?
09:33Is there something going on in here that I should know about?
09:36Lois' old boyfriend's looking for a blast from the past.
09:41Huh?
09:42It's true. That hot-looking guy just gave Lois the key to his room.
09:47What are we all talking about?
09:48So you saw something that wasn't meant to be seen. This is really none of our business.
09:52Besides, Lois can take care of herself.
09:56Somebody call a strike and not tell me?
09:59Uh, Lois, can I ask you a question?
10:01Yeah, sure.
10:02Which would you rather have?
10:03A lifetime with a good, decent man or a night of cheap, torrid sex?
10:08She takes the first one. I'll take the second.
10:12Did I miss something?
10:13The room key.
10:15Uh, ladies, look, I appreciate your concern, but you're right. It is none of your affair.
10:19Affair. Interesting choice of words.
10:21Huh? Come on.
10:23Guys, leave Lois alone. She knows what she's doing.
10:26Right. We're just going to talk.
10:29Maybe she doesn't know what she's talking about.
10:34Lois, you really aren't going down there to his hotel room.
10:37Of course she's not.
10:39I don't know what I'm going to do, but I'll tell you, it amazes me that I was ever able to run my own life before I met you two.
10:45I think I hear my red snapper calling me.
10:48I think it's calling both of us.
10:57You guys are really something.
11:00Hey, he just wants to have a drink.
11:03Mm-hmm.
11:06We have a lot to catch up on.
11:08Mm-hmm.
11:11Well, we have to meet somewhere.
11:12Mm-hmm.
11:14Jan, if you have something to say, don't hum it.
11:17In this hotel, there are four restaurants, three bars, and two coffee shops. Why do you have to meet him in his hotel room?
11:24You think he wants more than just a drink?
11:25Mm-hmm.
11:28I don't know what he wants. What I care about is what you want.
11:32Well, I just want to talk to him some more, that's all.
11:35Maybe finish what you started in high school?
11:38Oh, Jan, come on.
11:39It happens.
11:40Just because I want to go to his room does not guarantee that something is going to happen.
11:44Look, Lois, I know this is none of my business, but I consider myself to be a good friend, so it is my business.
11:49Because what I have to say is for your own good, so when you hear it, just don't get mad at me or get annoyed or anything.
11:53Jan, what is it?
11:55You're playing with fire.
11:57That's it?
11:59That's it.
12:00That's what happens when you may get burned.
12:02I didn't want to lecture.
12:17Amy! Hi, honey. Yeah, it's Mommy. Is Daddy there?
12:21Oh, no, no, no. Don't get him out of the shower. Just tell him that I'm going to be a little late tonight, okay?
12:26All right, sweetie. Bye-bye.
12:30Bye-bye.
12:41Frank? Frank, it's Lois.
12:47Oh, great.
13:00Hi.
13:18Glad you could make it.
13:20So am I.
13:22You look even more beautiful with your clothes on.
13:25I do? Thank you. You look very nice, too.
13:28Thank you.
13:30That's the same suit you had on at dinner, isn't it?
13:32Right. Yeah. Haven't changed.
13:34Not a bit.
13:37May I come in?
13:39Here? Sure.
13:42See you two tomorrow. Don't stay up too late bobbing corn.
13:46See you tomorrow, Vicki.
13:48Okay.
13:50Hello?
13:52Lois? No, she's not here right now.
13:54Oh, hi, Bill.
13:56What? Bye.
13:58What?
14:00It's Bill. He's coming down here.
14:02So? Well, I'm sure she'll be very surprised.
14:04A lot.
14:06Oh, I'll tell her when I see her.
14:08Hey, and don't hurry getting down here.
14:10I mean, drive slowly and safely. Speed kills. Bye.
14:14What's going on?
14:16Bill's coming here to the hotel to make up with Lois.
14:18Oh, that's nice.
14:20That's not nice. Lois is in Frank's room right this minute.
14:23How do you know?
14:25Trust me, I know.
14:26You don't think Lois and Frank are...
14:28I don't want to know, but I'm sure I don't want Bill to know. Come on.
14:36Now, the first number on the key was six, so it has to be the sixth floor.
14:40All we have to do is find the right room.
14:43You mean you don't know what room it is?
14:46Dot, there are 50 rooms on this floor.
14:48And Lois is in one of them.
14:51You can't just knock on doors.
14:53Oh, Vicki, trust me.
14:54Vicki, trust me. I am an actress.
14:56Surprise!
14:58Sure is. I only ordered one of you.
15:05What do you mean?
15:07The boys won that volleyball game. I should know. I was the scorekeeper.
15:10That's why you won.
15:12Oh, come on. After all these years, you can admit it.
15:14Do you want some more wine?
15:16No, thank you.
15:18You know, I haven't been able to concentrate on anything since I saw you.
15:25Running into you after all these years, I just can't get over it.
15:29I couldn't either.
15:31You wouldn't believe how many times I've thought about us.
15:34Oh, yes, I would.
15:37And here we are again.
15:40Just like at the cabin.
15:42Only this time you don't have a car to run to.
15:48You always were a great kisser.
15:51You too.
15:54Lois, I want you to stay with me tonight.
15:59I think I will have that glass of wine.
16:02Does that mean you need time to think or does that mean you're thirsty?
16:10I'd be a liar if I said that I hadn't...
16:13I'd be a liar if I said that I hadn't thought about us, too.
16:18And?
16:21And I think I'd like to, but I think I'd better not.
16:27I mean, it's a good thing to think about, but maybe not so good to do, you know?
16:34You sure?
16:36Yes.
16:39Yeah.
16:40Yeah.
16:42Well, okay.
16:45You wanted another drink?
16:47No, no, thanks, I...
16:51You know something about getting older?
16:54Hearing you say no is just as hard now as it was then.
17:00Saying it hasn't gotten any easier either.
17:03Dot, we can't keep knocking on doors, it's embarrassing.
17:07Besides, what if we're too late?
17:09Don't say that.
17:10Well, how long do these things take?
17:12Depends upon how much time you've got.
17:24So that's how long it takes.
17:27Come on.
17:28So that's how long it takes.
17:31Come on.
17:32Lois!
17:33What?
17:34Bill, he's downstairs.
17:35Bill's downstairs?
17:36You'd better hurry.
17:37In the lobby, he wants to make up.
17:38Okay, thanks.
17:40What are you two doing here?
17:45Honey, I tried to get out of working this weekend, but I just can't.
17:48I know I promised...
17:49Ellen, baby, please, don't cry.
17:52I've tried, I've tried everyone.
17:54Look, tell you what.
17:55You want to wait up for me till I get home?
17:58Oh, okay, well, I'll see you in the morning.
18:00I love you.
18:01Bye-bye.
18:03Oh, Jan.
18:04Jan, when you come to work this weekend, do watch your posture.
18:07The chiropractors hate a slouch.
18:09What are you going to do?
18:10Hide.
18:13Cassie, I don't think this concerns you.
18:16It does if I'm working for Jan this weekend.
18:18Oh, Cassie, thank you so much.
18:20Can it.
18:21So you'll be covering for Jan.
18:24Well, you're a very good friend.
18:26And a chump.
18:29Oh, Cassie, how can I ever thank you?
18:31For not putting down my life?
18:33Oh, look, I never meant to...
18:35Look, you got a kid, I don't.
18:36But my free time is just as important to me as yours is to you.
18:39Cassie, anybody ever tell you you're very special?
18:41All the time, and I'm getting sick of it.
18:48Hey, baby, we're on.
18:50Rock and roll.
18:52It's your mother.
18:55We're going to the concert, right?
18:57Right. Bye-bye.
19:00Hi, you guys.
19:02What's with you two?
19:03Trouble on the good ship lollipop?
19:06Lois did it.
19:08Did what?
19:09Last night we saw her come out of Frank's room, and they were kissing.
19:12We followed her.
19:13What do you mean you followed her?
19:14Well, she went to the sixth floor, so we went to the sixth floor.
19:17I know what following means.
19:20How dare you?
19:21We were on a mission of mercy.
19:23Bill was coming here, and we were trying to warn her.
19:26To do what? Work fast?
19:29So what happened when she met Bill?
19:31We don't know. We went home.
19:32Well, for God's sake, if you're going to spy on her, at least finish the job.
19:38Hi, everybody.
19:40What?
19:42What? What? What?
19:44Okay, I'll start.
19:45How was it?
19:46How was what?
19:48Frank.
19:49Oh. Oh, it was nice.
19:51I mean, it was very nice.
19:53You're right. She did it.
19:56She told Bill.
19:57Told Bill what?
19:58That you spent the night with Frank for an hour.
20:02I did not spend the night with Frank.
20:04I mean, yes, I went to his room, and that's all.
20:06And that is exactly what I told Bill.
20:08And he understood.
20:09Eventually.
20:13Girls, I very much appreciate the fact that you were concerned that I may do something stupid and ruin my life.
20:19Or at least screw it up a lot.
20:21And, uh, for a minute there, I almost did.
20:24And then I thought, hey, you know, I have what I want.
20:27I'm not going to risk losing that.
20:29I'm glad.
20:31So am I.
20:32Me too.
20:33Good. Now that we've saved my marriage, let's work on saving our jobs.
20:41Okay, Lois, that was for the kids.
20:43Now, between me and you, what really happened?
20:47Cassie, I'll tell you, it was, uh, incredible.
20:50It was primitive, wild, and hot.
20:54Thanks.
20:57I know you're lying, but somehow it makes me feel better.
21:24It's a living!
