1
00:00:30,807 --> 00:00:35,101
A million and a half people
ride the El trains every day.
2
00:00:35,185 --> 00:00:40,061
Over 20 years. l've written wills
for about 8.000 of 'em.
3
00:00:41,066 --> 00:00:44,185
l've sat with 'em
as they've combed through their assets.
4
00:00:44,277 --> 00:00:47,563
figured out which kid
gets the painting over the fireplace.
5
00:00:47,656 --> 00:00:51,523
which one gets
the antique spoon collection.
6
00:00:51,618 --> 00:00:57,822
Last thanks. parting shots. confessions...
People try to fit it all in.
7
00:01:00,168 --> 00:01:04,247
And once l've finished.
another life has been summed up -
8
00:01:04,337 --> 00:01:08,003
assets and debts tallied.
then zeroed out.
9
00:01:08,091 --> 00:01:11,425
You initial here and there.
you sign at the bottom.
10
00:01:11,511 --> 00:01:15,343
Then. if you're like most clients.
you look up. smile.
11
00:01:15,432 --> 00:01:20,852
and you ask the question
l've heard for 20 years: ''ls that it. then?''
12
00:01:21,728 --> 00:01:27,517
''That's it for the paperwork.'' l tell 'em.
''The rest is up to you.''
13
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:34,570
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you
14
00:01:34,657 --> 00:01:41,823
Happy birthday. dear Dad

15
00:01:41,915 --> 00:01:43,574

All right. make a wish.
17
00:01:49,046 --> 00:01:50,954
Sorry. l just have to take this call.
18
00:01:51,047 --> 00:01:53,799
- Did you win?
- ''Take this call''?
19
00:01:53,883 --> 00:01:58,130
- She's 1 4. How can she be ''taking calls''?
- Jen. not now. Now's not the time.
20
00:01:58,221 --> 00:02:00,972
Remind me. why was it we agreed
to give her the phone?
21
00:02:01,056 --> 00:02:03,132
- Emergencies.
- Which this is. by the way.
22
00:02:03,226 --> 00:02:05,135
Serious problem over there.
23
00:02:05,228 --> 00:02:07,101
Get off. Jen. Now. please. Come on.
24
00:02:07,187 --> 00:02:08,930
- All right.
- Come on. get off.
25
00:02:09,023 --> 00:02:13,851
Yeah. my dad's just gonna blow out
about a million candles. Bye.
26
00:02:13,944 --> 00:02:17,442
All right. everyone.

27
00:02:21,742 --> 00:02:23,070

- Sorry about the bathrobe.
- What do you mean?
30
00:02:32,669 --> 00:02:35,623
l just had such a hard time
getting you a present.
31
00:02:35,714 --> 00:02:36,877
l love this bathrobe.
32
00:02:36,966 --> 00:02:40,169
l think the problem is
that you never really want anything.
33
00:02:40,259 --> 00:02:41,671
- That's not true.
- That's true.
34
00:02:41,761 --> 00:02:44,512
- Tell me one thing that you really want.
- What you gave me tonight.
35
00:02:44,597 --> 00:02:47,514
Evan coming home. everyone's at dinner.

36
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:51,893
Tell me one thing that you want
that comes in a box.
37
00:02:53,772 --> 00:02:55,978

38
00:03:07,285 --> 00:03:11,496
Yes. That's it. That's it.
That's what we needed.
39
00:03:16,377 --> 00:03:19,211
Good night. Mary.

40
00:03:19,295 --> 00:03:21,287

Hello. l'm home.
43
00:04:03,378 --> 00:04:05,537
There's a female bonding ritual

- What are they doing in there?
45
00:04:07,340 --> 00:04:10,708
Tattooing ''l love Satan'' on their foreheads.
piercing their bellybuttons. stuff like that.
46
00:04:10,801 --> 00:04:14,502
- Great. What did you say about that?
- l said. ''Don't get any blood on the couch.''
47
00:04:14,597 --> 00:04:17,597
l worry about Jenna. She's too beautiful.
That's your fault.
48
00:04:17,683 --> 00:04:19,225

49
00:04:19,308 --> 00:04:21,468

50
00:04:21,562 --> 00:04:24,267

Yeah. but it's the fundraiser
at Jen's school.
54
00:04:34,031 --> 00:04:36,782
So your dinner's in the oven
and the girls have already eaten.
55
00:04:36,866 --> 00:04:40,450
Can we go see a movie sometime?
56
00:04:40,538 --> 00:04:45,412
Yeah. Or at least we could
look at the ads in the paper together.
57
00:04:48,544 --> 00:04:50,752
How are you doing?
58
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,831
Fine.

60
00:04:58,262 --> 00:05:00,420
Don't wait up.
61
00:05:06,645 --> 00:05:08,802
Get out of here. Dad.
62
00:06:24,757 --> 00:06:28,838
Bev? lt's not true
that l don't want anything.
63
00:06:34,475 --> 00:06:36,467
Bev?
64
00:07:06,671 --> 00:07:09,341

Oh. my God. What are you doing?

- OK. don't do that.
- Do what?
74
00:08:11,315 --> 00:08:14,683
Stand there looking dumb.
lt's just not cute in a guy your age.
75
00:08:14,776 --> 00:08:16,935
Be a doll and help me carry my clothes.
76
00:08:17,029 --> 00:08:20,279
Come on. And stop lookin' at my ass.
77

85
00:08:52,977 --> 00:08:55,102
The sign said ''Feel free to watch.''
86
00:08:55,189 --> 00:08:57,561
Are you here for lessons?
87
00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,852

00:09:01,111 --> 00:09:03,567

00:15:48,485 --> 00:15:50,443
- Somewhere close.
- Yeah. l haven't got long.
171
00:15:50,530 --> 00:15:52,024
Anyway. you guys. don't go to Jim's.
172
00:15:52,114 --> 00:15:54,486
They got a bad roach problem
there around the corner.
173
00:15:54,575 --> 00:15:57,990
You're gonna go anywhere after class.
you come here. OK? Thank you.
174
00:15:58,078 --> 00:15:59,739
Why'd you guys decide to take dance.
anyway?
175
00:15:59,830 --> 00:16:02,368
- l'm gettin' married in September.
- Nice.
176
00:16:02,457 --> 00:16:05,079
Yeah. My bride said
she'd like to see me lose a few pounds.
177
00:16:05,169 --> 00:16:08,584
She thinks the dancing will help.
l said it won't.
178
00:16:08,671 --> 00:16:12,040
- l think you'll win that argument.
- l'm taking classes to impress the ladies.
179
00:16:12,132 --> 00:16:13,925
You know what they say
about guys who can dance. right?
180
00:16:14,010 --> 00:16:15,919
- That they're great in bed.
- Yeah. baby.
181
00:16:16,011 --> 00:16:19,462
- Where do you get that stupid crap?
- Everywhere. What do you think?
182
00:16:19,556 --> 00:16:23,091
Everybody knows a guy who can move
on the dance floor can move in the sack.
183
00:16:23,185 --> 00:16:26,802
Most guys. they can't dance at all. Guys
who can. they get their pick of the litter.
184
00:16:26,897 --> 00:16:29,434
That's why. when l'm done with this class.
babes will drop at my feet.
185
00:16:29,523 --> 00:16:31,563
They're gonna be droppin' dead
at your feet.
186
00:16:31,651 --> 00:16:35,898
When you took your shoes off in class
today. l had to run to the window for air.
187
00:16:35,988 --> 00:16:38,906
What kind of person says something like
that to somebody they don't even know?
188
00:16:38,991 --> 00:16:40,698
Man. l'm doin' you a favour.
189
00:16:40,784 --> 00:16:43,571
l'm telling you something obnoxious about
yourself that you might not be aware of.
190
00:16:43,662 --> 00:16:46,070
lf there's something obnoxious about me
that you don't think l'm aware of.
191
00:16:46,165 --> 00:16:50,031
y'all should feel free
to say something about it to me.
192
00:16:51,002 --> 00:16:52,958
Shooting fish in a barrel.
193
00:16:53,046 --> 00:16:55,963
- Where are all the ladies. anyways?
- l don't know what l'm talking about.
194
00:16:56,048 --> 00:16:58,799
The ladies. they all go and take the classes
down at Doctor Dance -
195
00:16:58,884 --> 00:17:03,048
that's. like. the hip place to go downtown.
Ditzy Mitzi's is only hangin' on by a thread.
196
00:17:03,137 --> 00:17:06,804
Only reason l go there is she lets me
rehearse whenever l want for free.
197
00:17:06,891 --> 00:17:10,141
l'm gonna compete
in the Chicago Taittinger Trophy.
198
00:17:10,227 --> 00:17:12,636
Soon as l find a partner.
199
00:17:12,730 --> 00:17:16,645
So. that leaves you.
200
00:17:17,819 --> 00:17:19,478
Leaves me? How? What?
201
00:17:19,570 --> 00:17:22,820
Leaves you as the only one here
who hasn't said why he's dancing yet.
202
00:17:22,906 --> 00:17:25,907
Well. l'm dancing for exercise.
like Vern.
203
00:17:25,992 --> 00:17:27,072
Bull.
204
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,996
Because l'm lousy in bed. like Chic.
There. l've said it.
205
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,828
- That is bull. l didn't say l was bad in bed.
- You didn't have to.
206
00:17:33,917 --> 00:17:35,910
Come on. why?
207
00:17:36,752 --> 00:17:39,456
ls there any pepper here?
Could l have some?
208
00:17:39,547 --> 00:17:41,918
That's what l thought.
209
00:17:42,006 --> 00:17:44,498
She was a Blackpool finalist. you know.
210
00:17:44,593 --> 00:17:45,589
Who?
211
00:17:45,678 --> 00:17:48,512
The princess. The other teacher. Paulina.
212
00:17:48,597 --> 00:17:50,719
What's Blackpool?
213
00:17:50,807 --> 00:17:53,049
Every year. all the best dancers
from all over the world
214
00:17:53,143 --> 00:17:57,092
go to England to compete there.
She was there last year with her partner -
215
00:17:57,188 --> 00:18:00,023
who they say was much more to her
than just her partner.
216
00:18:00,107 --> 00:18:02,775
Anyway. he dumped her. That's the only
reason she came back here to teach -
217
00:18:02,860 --> 00:18:04,936
mad at the world.
boo-hoo-hoo and all that.
218
00:18:05,028 --> 00:18:06,440
- Why'd he dump her?
- Yeah.
219
00:18:06,529 --> 00:18:11,238
How the hell should l know?
God. they say women gossip. Golly.
220
00:18:34,263 --> 00:18:37,513
Hello? l'm home.
221
00:18:55,909 --> 00:19:00,238
Great. Great. Vern.
Slow. The mambo is slow.
222
00:19:00,329 --> 00:19:02,072
Slide that hand
one inch south of the equator
223
00:19:02,164 --> 00:19:04,702
and l will bust you on your ass.
twinkle-toes.
224
00:19:04,792 --> 00:19:09,786
Let's get something straight. l don't like
the tropics any more than you do. OK?
225
00:19:25,394 --> 00:19:27,434
Five. six. seven. eight...
226
00:19:27,521 --> 00:19:30,807
Arms. And basic.
And cross over.
227
00:19:31,735 --> 00:19:33,061
Right.
228
00:19:33,151 --> 00:19:35,688
One more time. and walk around.
229
00:19:36,655 --> 00:19:39,608
- And basic.
- Watch out.
230
00:19:39,699 --> 00:19:41,858
And big ending.
231
00:19:50,626 --> 00:19:52,997
Look at you. John.
232
00:20:00,885 --> 00:20:05,298
- That was pretty good.
- You were really good.
233
00:20:33,623 --> 00:20:36,162
l'm sorry l'm late.
l'm gonna go up and change.
234
00:20:36,251 --> 00:20:38,244
Right.
235
00:20:38,336 --> 00:20:42,084
- Dad work late tonight?
- Yeah. looks that way.
236
00:20:44,384 --> 00:20:47,005
Guess whatever he's working on.
he must like it.
237
00:20:47,094 --> 00:20:51,092
- Why do you say that?
- He seems happier lately.
238
00:20:54,601 --> 00:20:56,677
Does he?
239
00:21:02,650 --> 00:21:03,765
l called the Halston people in New York.
240
00:21:03,860 --> 00:21:07,394
We're gonna have trouble getting more
stock in. Everything's on back-order.
241
00:21:07,489 --> 00:21:10,940
Look. Carolyn. l'm gonna need you
to go to New York and sweet-talk them.
242
00:21:11,034 --> 00:21:13,525
- Can you leave tomorrow?
- No.
243
00:21:13,620 --> 00:21:15,659
Why not?
244
00:21:15,746 --> 00:21:18,663
My husband is having an affair.
245
00:21:22,086 --> 00:21:23,994
How do you know that?
246
00:21:24,087 --> 00:21:26,838
l picked up the receiver last night
to phone a friend.
247
00:21:26,923 --> 00:21:32,046
not knowing that Greg was already
on the other line in the den.
248
00:21:32,135 --> 00:21:34,176
He was whispering.
249
00:21:34,930 --> 00:21:36,924
What was he whispering?
250
00:21:37,016 --> 00:21:39,091
l don't know.
251
00:21:39,184 --> 00:21:42,719
l was so scared l hung up
before l could hear anything.
252
00:21:42,813 --> 00:21:46,726
Well. there's lots of other reasons
why he could be whispering.
253
00:21:46,816 --> 00:21:51,230
l mean. maybe he didn't wanna
wake up the kids. Huh?
254
00:21:51,321 --> 00:21:56,944
Or he could be planning a surprise for you.
l mean. your birthday's coming up. isn't it?
255
00:21:58,994 --> 00:22:01,745
ln two weeks.
256
00:22:06,793 --> 00:22:08,869
That's it.
257
00:22:11,673 --> 00:22:15,966
Take a breath. go get yourself a brownie
in the kitchen. just chill. lt's gonna be fine.
258
00:22:16,051 --> 00:22:18,043
OK.
259
00:22:21,641 --> 00:22:24,011
You silly goose. you.
260
00:22:26,062 --> 00:22:28,682
She'll be divorced by Easter.
261
00:22:39,699 --> 00:22:42,734
Come on. John. Join the warm-up.
262
00:23:22,989 --> 00:23:25,989
- Jesus. l'm sorry.
- Watch your floorcraft. spasmo.
263
00:23:26,075 --> 00:23:29,526
What. you think you own this floor? l'll
have a bruise the size of Texas tomorrow.
264
00:23:29,619 --> 00:23:32,075
- Go away.
- Go away? You go away.
265
00:23:32,163 --> 00:23:35,034
Take your stupid music with you.
l can't dance to that crap.
266
00:23:35,124 --> 00:23:38,327
You just gonna stand there
and let that fat cow insult you?
267
00:23:38,419 --> 00:23:43,377
- l'm sorry. what did you say?
- Nothing. She didn't say anything.
268
00:23:53,975 --> 00:23:56,928
Sorry. These are the teeth
l wear for the Latin.
269
00:23:57,019 --> 00:23:59,937
lt gets your smile out there.
Just a little bit bigger smile.
270
00:24:00,021 --> 00:24:02,857
Bam. Gets the judges right in the eye.
catches the light.
271
00:24:02,941 --> 00:24:04,566
And then the make-up -
you know the make-up.
272
00:24:04,651 --> 00:24:07,688
''Swish-butt''. ''Fancy pants''. ''Pinky boy''...
273
00:24:07,780 --> 00:24:10,983
All these names. all these names l've been
called ever since l was eight years old
274
00:24:11,074 --> 00:24:14,159
and dancing around
to my mother's rumba records.
275
00:24:14,244 --> 00:24:16,996
You know what the worst of it is? Huh?
276
00:24:18,122 --> 00:24:22,370
l'm not gay. Can you imagine how much
easier my life would be if l were?
277
00:24:22,461 --> 00:24:24,535
l mean. a straight man
who likes to dance around in sequins
278
00:24:24,628 --> 00:24:27,333
walks a very lonely road.
l got news for you.
279
00:24:27,423 --> 00:24:29,331
Look. you're not gonna
tell anybody in the office. are you?
280
00:24:29,424 --> 00:24:32,876
No. no. no. l wouldn't do that.
Look. l'm in the same boat. aren't l?
281
00:24:32,969 --> 00:24:34,547
No. you're not. You're not.
282
00:24:34,638 --> 00:24:37,212
- Why not?
- Because people like you.
283
00:24:37,308 --> 00:24:38,966
You know what l mean? You're charming.
284
00:24:39,058 --> 00:24:43,139
l'm Linky Link. They would crucify me
if they found out.
285
00:24:43,230 --> 00:24:46,644
l'm the sports trivia king.
l'm the super sports fan. you know?
286
00:24:46,731 --> 00:24:49,898
- You don't like football?
- l... You know.
287
00:24:49,985 --> 00:24:53,021
Run three yards. fall down. pile up.
Run three yards. fall down. pile up.
288
00:24:53,113 --> 00:24:56,529
l mean. you know. four months of that.
l'm ready to put a gun to my head.
289
00:24:56,616 --> 00:24:59,783
- Fooled me.
- l know. l fooled everybody.
290
00:24:59,869 --> 00:25:01,696
You know what my dream is?
291
00:25:01,788 --> 00:25:03,615
What?
292
00:25:04,665 --> 00:25:10,288
My dream is to be able to dance
free and proud.
293
00:25:10,379 --> 00:25:13,463
Under my own name.
For all the world to see.
294
00:25:13,549 --> 00:25:15,754
That's my dream.
295
00:25:15,841 --> 00:25:17,634
Did l get it all?
296
00:25:23,642 --> 00:25:24,886
Andy. it's Bev.
297
00:25:24,976 --> 00:25:28,261
Look. l'm sorry to call you so late.
l was just trying to find John.
298
00:25:28,354 --> 00:25:33,977
Called the office at six and Betsy said
that he'd left for the day. and l was just...
299
00:25:34,067 --> 00:25:37,483
You got home by five?
How did you manage that. you lucky dog?
300
00:25:37,570 --> 00:25:40,773
There's the door.
OK. See you. Bye.
301
00:25:40,866 --> 00:25:42,573
Sorry l'm late. l got hung up at the office.
302
00:25:42,659 --> 00:25:45,445
l wish you'd call. cos we were looking
all over for your car keys forever...
303
00:25:45,536 --> 00:25:48,407
- l thought you were shopping with Jenna.
- That was weeks ago.
304
00:25:48,498 --> 00:25:51,332
l called the office
and Betsy said you left for the day at six.
305
00:25:51,417 --> 00:25:53,823
Yeah. l did - for a sandwich.
Then l came back.
306
00:25:53,918 --> 00:25:56,456
Well. l called your private line a few times.
nobody picked up.
307
00:25:56,546 --> 00:25:59,002
That's because l wasn't working
in my office. l was in Andy's.
308
00:25:59,090 --> 00:26:00,466
How is Andy?
309
00:26:00,550 --> 00:26:04,797
We're working
on a really big estate plan together.
310
00:26:04,887 --> 00:26:07,259
- So he was there?
- What?
311
00:26:07,348 --> 00:26:08,973
Was Andy there?
312
00:26:09,058 --> 00:26:10,801
Why are you asking me
all these questions?
313
00:26:10,892 --> 00:26:12,802
l don't know.
314
00:26:13,937 --> 00:26:18,149
Anyway. l stopped off for a bite
on the way home with Link Peterson.
315
00:26:18,233 --> 00:26:20,807
Remember him? lnteresting guy.
316
00:26:21,485 --> 00:26:24,190
Not what you'd think.
317
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,687
- How was your day?
- Great.
318
00:26:34,331 --> 00:26:37,866
One. two. three. four...
319
00:26:39,170 --> 00:26:41,540
One. two. three...
320
00:26:58,311 --> 00:26:59,771
Mom?
321
00:27:00,438 --> 00:27:02,765
Dad's acting weird.
322
00:27:10,573 --> 00:27:15,779
They met five years ago
in a chat room for gardeners.
323
00:27:18,163 --> 00:27:20,451
He says they're in love.
324
00:27:21,208 --> 00:27:23,496
He's moving out Saturday.
325
00:27:23,584 --> 00:27:26,585
He'll be back. He loves those kids.
326
00:27:26,671 --> 00:27:28,711
l thought we were happy.
327
00:27:28,798 --> 00:27:31,087
He seemed happy to me.
328
00:27:32,301 --> 00:27:34,793
l didn't know anything.
329
00:27:36,638 --> 00:27:38,298
l didn't know.
330
00:27:49,193 --> 00:27:51,231
Hi.
331
00:27:51,318 --> 00:27:56,360
l give free consultations
during my lunch hour.
332
00:27:56,449 --> 00:27:58,820
You sure you don't wanna come in?
333
00:27:59,701 --> 00:28:01,528
So he comes home late on Wednesdays.
334
00:28:01,620 --> 00:28:03,577
and when he comes home
his shirts smell like perfume.
335
00:28:03,664 --> 00:28:06,914
He's been seen making strange body
movements and you feel he has a secret.
336
00:28:06,999 --> 00:28:09,573
- That's correct.
- Ever think about just asking him?
337
00:28:09,669 --> 00:28:13,203
- Yes. l've thought about it...
- Mrs. Clark...
338
00:28:13,296 --> 00:28:17,591
things happen in long marriages.
To the best of people.
339
00:28:17,677 --> 00:28:20,593
And sometimes the thing that happens
doesn't mean anything.
340
00:28:20,679 --> 00:28:23,550
Doesn't need an investigator. just needs
somebody to look the other way for a while.
341
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,183
My husband is a serious man. Mr Devine.
lf he's having an affair. it is not casual.
342
00:28:28,269 --> 00:28:30,974
ln which case.
the sooner l know. the better.
343
00:28:32,650 --> 00:28:36,432
All right. Give me a moment
while l call in my associate. Mr Harcourt.
344
00:28:36,527 --> 00:28:38,520
Scottie.
345
00:28:39,905 --> 00:28:41,649
Scottie Harcourt. this is Mrs. Clark.
346
00:28:41,740 --> 00:28:44,113
She suspects
her husband's up to no good.
347
00:28:44,202 --> 00:28:48,530
''To catch a husband is an art.
To hold him is a job.''
348
00:28:48,622 --> 00:28:52,120
Simone de Beauvoir said that.
lt's very nice to meet you. Mrs. Clark.
349
00:28:52,208 --> 00:28:53,158
Same here.
350
00:28:53,252 --> 00:28:56,252
l think we can start this investigation
without too much cost to Mrs. Clark.
351
00:28:56,338 --> 00:29:01,461
Yes. Follow that husband around for a few
days. take some pictures. see what's up.
352
00:29:01,551 --> 00:29:03,293
But l have to warn you.
if it goes to trial it's gonna be...
353
00:29:03,385 --> 00:29:05,591
Trial?
354
00:29:06,889 --> 00:29:09,344
ln the event of a divorce.
355
00:29:09,433 --> 00:29:11,223
But we don't know if he's having an affair.
356
00:29:11,309 --> 00:29:16,552
l mean. he could just be involved with.
l don't know.
357
00:29:17,523 --> 00:29:20,478
people who get together to invest things.
358
00:29:20,567 --> 00:29:26,356
and the place that they invest things
is filled with potpourri.
359
00:29:26,448 --> 00:29:31,572
and that's why his shirts smell so sweet
when he comes home. lt's possible.
360
00:29:31,660 --> 00:29:33,951
Yeah. it's possible. lt's possible.
361
00:29:34,039 --> 00:29:38,664
lt's possible we could find your husband
neck-deep in potpourri. investing things.
362
00:29:38,751 --> 00:29:40,743
Not likely.
363
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,413
Look. this is what we'll do.
364
00:29:49,761 --> 00:29:52,050
We start out gently.
365
00:29:56,518 --> 00:29:58,510
We look for the potpourri.
366
00:29:58,603 --> 00:30:04,107
And if we find it. and it smells like flowers.
then 2.000 ought to cover my time.
367
00:30:04,192 --> 00:30:08,485
But if we find the potpourri and there's
something big and stinky in the pot.
368
00:30:08,571 --> 00:30:12,021
then you and l renegotiate. OK?
That sound good?
369
00:30:12,115 --> 00:30:14,108
OK.
370
00:30:19,955 --> 00:30:21,783
- Hey.
- Hi.
371
00:30:21,874 --> 00:30:24,115
- How you doin'?
- Good.
372
00:30:26,338 --> 00:30:29,207
- l can tell. you know.
- Tell what?
373
00:30:29,298 --> 00:30:32,050
That you've been dancing.
Your posture. it's a dead giveaway.
374
00:30:32,135 --> 00:30:34,291
- You're kidding.
- No.
375
00:30:36,304 --> 00:30:38,925
- How much you been practising. anyway?
- Just in class.
376
00:30:39,015 --> 00:30:42,929
No. Should be five to one.
Five-to-one ratio.
377
00:30:43,019 --> 00:30:46,886
Five hours of practice
for every one hour of class.
378
00:30:49,359 --> 00:30:52,561
Doctor Dance has an open dance party
every Thursday.
379
00:30:52,653 --> 00:30:56,068
Anybody can go and practice.
Even you.
380
00:30:57,657 --> 00:30:59,864
Ballroom is all or nothing. John.
381
00:30:59,951 --> 00:31:02,655
l'm draggin' your ass out of class
and onto a real dance floor.
382
00:31:02,745 --> 00:31:05,663
We'll go straight there after work.
383
00:31:05,748 --> 00:31:08,037
- Link?
- Yeah?
384
00:31:08,125 --> 00:31:10,532
Can you really tell?
385
00:31:10,627 --> 00:31:12,335
Yeah.
386
00:31:34,357 --> 00:31:36,515
Having fun?
387
00:31:36,609 --> 00:31:40,109
- What are you doing here?
- Spying.
388
00:32:07,304 --> 00:32:09,593
Excuse me. we were dancing together.
389
00:32:09,682 --> 00:32:12,433
Dude. she does not wanna dance with you.
Now back off.
390
00:32:12,518 --> 00:32:14,390
You know. l...
391
00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:22,938
Link always insists
on dancing with the youngest girls.
392
00:32:23,027 --> 00:32:28,319
l've never seen him with his perfect
partner. Not that those are easy to find.
393
00:32:28,408 --> 00:32:30,317
Have you ever found one?
394
00:32:30,410 --> 00:32:35,320
Once. He was my dancing partner
for 1 5 years.
395
00:32:35,414 --> 00:32:38,249
- We were husband and wife for 1 4.
- Wow.
396
00:32:38,333 --> 00:32:42,995
Yeah. He was my perfect partner.
Doesn't happen twice in a lifetime.
397
00:32:43,088 --> 00:32:46,042
l'm lucky it even happened once.
398
00:32:47,092 --> 00:32:51,754
At last. a song l know.
l love this song.
399
00:32:54,724 --> 00:32:59,302
Shall wwe still be together
With our arms around each other
400
00:32:59,395 --> 00:33:03,605
And shall you be my neww romance?
401
00:33:03,689 --> 00:33:08,268
On the clear understanding
that this kind of thing can happen
402
00:33:08,361 --> 00:33:12,607
Shall wwe dance. shall wwe dance.
shall wwe dance?
403
00:33:13,449 --> 00:33:17,197
lt's The king and i. Yul Brynner
and Deborah Kerr. Do you remember that?
404
00:33:17,286 --> 00:33:20,536
They held hands like this.
Come on. John. let's try it.
405
00:33:20,623 --> 00:33:23,244
- No. No. no. no. l can't. No way. l can't.
- Why not?
406
00:33:23,334 --> 00:33:28,374
- John. come on. Come on.
- l don't... No. l don't want to...
407
00:33:35,261 --> 00:33:37,586
Let go. John.
408
00:33:44,393 --> 00:33:46,386
That's it. John.
409
00:33:50,483 --> 00:33:51,479
Whoa.
410
00:33:51,567 --> 00:33:54,237
- Sorry. l wasn't watching.
- Hi. How are you?
411
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,270
- lt doesn't matter. We're finished anyway.
- What do you mean?
412
00:33:58,365 --> 00:34:00,404
No offence.
but l can't be your dance partner.
413
00:34:00,492 --> 00:34:02,235
- Why?
- You're too much of a freak.
414
00:34:02,326 --> 00:34:06,076
l mean. look at your palms. They're
bright orange from self-tanning lotion.
415
00:34:06,164 --> 00:34:11,751
Don't you know you're supposed to wash
your hands after you use that stuff?
416
00:34:17,007 --> 00:34:19,130
Excuse me.
417
00:34:44,574 --> 00:34:47,825
Miss Mitzi couldn't make it tonight.
so l'll be your teacher.
418
00:34:47,912 --> 00:34:49,535
l'm Paulina.
419
00:34:49,621 --> 00:34:54,661
And you're Chic and Vern and...
420
00:34:56,878 --> 00:34:59,961
- Tom.
- John. lt's John.
421
00:35:02,133 --> 00:35:04,457
What would you like to work on tonight?
422
00:35:04,551 --> 00:35:10,256
Well. in my opinion - Chic - l think since
we're beginners. a good idea would be...
423
00:35:10,348 --> 00:35:12,139
Waltz.
424
00:35:12,224 --> 00:35:14,384
Maybe the waltz.
425
00:35:17,521 --> 00:35:19,977
OK.
426
00:35:20,066 --> 00:35:24,394
l'll work with you one at a time
and you can be first.
427
00:35:25,405 --> 00:35:27,562
OK. All right.
428
00:36:10,070 --> 00:36:12,443
l'm sorry.
429
00:37:04,913 --> 00:37:07,747
So are you really
a reporter for The Times.
430
00:37:07,832 --> 00:37:10,323
or are you just pickin' up on her.
like everybody else?
431
00:37:10,418 --> 00:37:13,419
l'm a reporter.
Plus. she's not my type.
432
00:37:13,504 --> 00:37:17,168
l like a woman built for comfort.
not for speed.
433
00:37:18,466 --> 00:37:23,258
Really? Why don't you put the camera
down and take me out on the dance floor?
434
00:37:23,346 --> 00:37:27,425
Two reasons: l'm working
and this is not my type of dance.
435
00:37:27,517 --> 00:37:29,176
Well. how do you know
if you've never tried?
436
00:37:29,268 --> 00:37:32,518
Come on. put the camera down.
Come on. give me a shot.
437
00:37:32,604 --> 00:37:33,980
Oh. dear.
438
00:37:34,064 --> 00:37:36,140
Sorry. sorry.
439
00:37:38,734 --> 00:37:41,107
- l'm sorry.
- lt's gonna stain.
440
00:37:41,196 --> 00:37:44,694
Don't worry. l'll take care of it.
441
00:38:05,761 --> 00:38:08,334
- Would you like to use this?
- Excuse me?
442
00:38:08,430 --> 00:38:11,050
Just to wipe your coat. or...
443
00:38:12,557 --> 00:38:16,721
Go ahead. just take it.
Please. Go ahead.
444
00:38:16,812 --> 00:38:20,513
- lt's silly. but it's my favourite coat.
- l'm sorry.
445
00:38:20,607 --> 00:38:22,600
lt's vintage.
446
00:38:23,609 --> 00:38:27,145
But this part's real suede.
so now it's ruined.
447
00:38:27,238 --> 00:38:29,776
You sure? Maybe they can fix that.
448
00:38:29,864 --> 00:38:33,281
No. l know about stains. lt's...
449
00:38:34,286 --> 00:38:36,409
You know. l never understood that.
l never understood -
450
00:38:36,497 --> 00:38:40,790
live cows get dirty all the time.
they don't get stained.
451
00:38:40,876 --> 00:38:44,873
All that leather stands in the mud.
nothing happens. Go figure. What is that?
452
00:38:46,089 --> 00:38:48,165
Exactly.
453
00:38:50,342 --> 00:38:53,961
Get a little sauce on your coat and look.
454
00:38:54,055 --> 00:38:56,177
- Why is that?
- l don't know.
455
00:38:56,266 --> 00:39:00,214
We'll have to ask the next cow
that comes by.
456
00:39:10,277 --> 00:39:15,947
A man with a handkerchief. Wow.
l didn't know they made those any more.
457
00:39:21,788 --> 00:39:27,908
l haven't eaten yet. lf you haven't eaten yet.
maybe we can go and get a bite.
458
00:39:28,753 --> 00:39:31,208
Someplace close.
You know. l saw a Chinese over here.
459
00:39:31,297 --> 00:39:36,125
We could use chopsticks and drop
an endless variety of things on our clothes.
460
00:39:36,218 --> 00:39:39,586
l'm sorry.
l prefer not to socialise with students.
461
00:39:40,556 --> 00:39:42,215
OK. All right.
462
00:39:42,724 --> 00:39:45,844
l shouldn't have taken this from you.
l'll buy you a new one.
463
00:39:45,936 --> 00:39:49,553
Please. l didn't mean anything by that.
464
00:39:49,939 --> 00:39:52,395
l'll buy you a new one.
465
00:39:52,484 --> 00:39:54,476
Excuse me.
466
00:39:59,073 --> 00:40:01,778
Mr Clark. l take dance very seriously.
467
00:40:02,367 --> 00:40:05,486
Miss Mitzi's is a school. not a disco.
468
00:40:05,578 --> 00:40:08,034
And l hope you didn't join class
with me as your goal.
469
00:40:08,123 --> 00:40:11,159
because you'd be wasting your time.
470
00:40:11,918 --> 00:40:15,167
Don't dance if that's what you're after.
471
00:40:33,354 --> 00:40:36,355
Dance lessons?
My husband is taking dance lessons?
472
00:40:36,441 --> 00:40:38,848
Well. l've found a lot worse
hiding in the potpourri over the years.
473
00:40:38,943 --> 00:40:40,022
Consider yourself lucky.
474
00:40:40,111 --> 00:40:42,649
What's this beautiful young woman?
Who's she?
475
00:40:42,739 --> 00:40:45,823
His substitute teacher.
His regular teacher's a much older woman.
476
00:40:45,908 --> 00:40:48,233
Great legs. but older.
477
00:40:48,327 --> 00:40:52,953
Mr Devine. what would make a man who's
done the same thing for the last 20 years
478
00:40:53,039 --> 00:40:56,657
suddenly do something so completely
out of character just out of the blue?
479
00:40:56,751 --> 00:40:58,993
That's a question for a shrink.
l'm just a detective.
480
00:40:59,086 --> 00:41:03,831
l'm not asking you as a detective.
l'm asking you as a man.
481
00:41:09,428 --> 00:41:12,215
Scottie?
What would cause a man after 20 years
482
00:41:12,306 --> 00:41:14,384
to do something completely
out of character out of the blue?
483
00:41:14,477 --> 00:41:16,931
- Did l get that right?
- Yeah.
484
00:41:19,271 --> 00:41:23,317
''The mass of men
lead lives of quiet desperation.''
485
00:41:23,401 --> 00:41:26,236
Maybe the desperation
can't be quiet any more.
486
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,648
Bingo.
487
00:41:27,738 --> 00:41:30,063
That's a wonderful use of Thoreau. Scottie.
488
00:41:30,156 --> 00:41:32,363
Thank you. Hello again. Mrs. Clark.
489
00:41:32,451 --> 00:41:34,193
Hey.
490
00:41:35,412 --> 00:41:38,033
- Desperation.
- Well. that's a possibility.
491
00:41:38,123 --> 00:41:40,744
Mrs. Clark. the point is
your husband's dancing.
492
00:41:40,834 --> 00:41:42,493
he's not checking into hotel rooms.
493
00:41:42,585 --> 00:41:44,707
We can continue
to keep an eye on things for you.
494
00:41:44,795 --> 00:41:48,874
but my guess is your husband will hang up
his dancing shoes shortly anyway.
495
00:41:48,965 --> 00:41:53,543
- What makes you say that?
- Voice of experience.
496
00:41:53,637 --> 00:41:56,970
You give him some time.
He'll be home soon.
497
00:42:05,940 --> 00:42:10,896
''The rest is up to you.'' l tell my clients.
''The rest is up to you.''
498
00:42:11,695 --> 00:42:13,485
Every few years they come back.
499
00:42:13,571 --> 00:42:18,697
so l have these snapshots in my head
of how they've changed over the years.
500
00:42:18,785 --> 00:42:25,285
The ones who've changed the most finally
bought that boat. moved to that island.
501
00:42:25,374 --> 00:42:27,533
Those who haven't changed.
502
00:42:27,626 --> 00:42:32,204
l suppose they take comfort
in knowing what course their lives are on.
503
00:42:32,297 --> 00:42:36,129
They like to believe
they know what lies ahead.
504
00:42:39,138 --> 00:42:40,513
Shit.
505
00:43:05,037 --> 00:43:06,744
Dad.
506
00:43:06,829 --> 00:43:09,285
Evan. What are you doing here?
507
00:43:09,373 --> 00:43:12,789
Trying to meet up with some friends.
What are you doing here?
508
00:43:12,876 --> 00:43:14,370
Well. you know. work...
509
00:43:14,461 --> 00:43:17,912
l had to come to visit a client over here.
l had to come by and...
510
00:43:18,007 --> 00:43:21,091
- lt's really weird.
- lt is?
511
00:43:21,176 --> 00:43:25,256
Yeah. Because l've been wanting you
to meet this girl that l'm crazy about.
512
00:43:25,347 --> 00:43:29,806
and l'm going to meet her right now
at this bar with my other friends.
513
00:43:29,892 --> 00:43:32,892
So can you... Do you wanna go?
514
00:43:33,854 --> 00:43:36,855
Of course l do.
Lead on. my son.
515
00:43:52,370 --> 00:43:54,862
Come on. let's get out there.
516
00:43:55,916 --> 00:43:58,453
So. does your dad wanna dance?
517
00:43:58,543 --> 00:44:01,829
l don't know. Dad. you haven't danced
in. what. 90 years?
518
00:44:01,922 --> 00:44:05,456
You two go. Go.
lt's been a long day for me.
519
00:44:31,198 --> 00:44:33,190
Mr Clark?
520
00:44:33,701 --> 00:44:35,528
Mr Clark?
521
00:44:35,744 --> 00:44:37,867
Do you wanna dance?
522
00:44:41,083 --> 00:44:43,454
Yes. Yes. l do.
523
00:44:43,753 --> 00:44:44,747
OK.
524
00:44:44,835 --> 00:44:47,126
Could you say goodbye to Evan for me?
Thank you.
525
00:44:47,213 --> 00:44:49,170
Sure.
526
00:45:00,934 --> 00:45:04,518
- Sorry l'm late.
- Don't let it happen again.
527
00:45:07,066 --> 00:45:09,472
Join the warm-up. John.
528
00:46:14,002 --> 00:46:15,828
Come on.
529
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,912
Christ. Vern.
530
00:46:19,006 --> 00:46:22,374
You're soaking wet. man.
l already had a shower today.
531
00:46:22,467 --> 00:46:25,172
- Sorry.
- You're disgusting.
532
00:46:25,262 --> 00:46:27,171
You don't have to put it like that.
533
00:46:27,264 --> 00:46:29,934
Why not? lt's the truth.
And l prefer to tell the truth.
534
00:46:30,016 --> 00:46:33,930
unlike some people who make up stories
about nonexistent fiancees.
535
00:46:34,020 --> 00:46:36,427
What are you talking about?
He's getting married in the fall.
536
00:46:36,522 --> 00:46:38,561
Come on. What. are ya dumb?
537
00:46:38,649 --> 00:46:42,101
People who are engaged take the classes
together. or what the hell's the point?
538
00:46:42,195 --> 00:46:48,612
Come on. tell the people the truth.
You're not engaged. are you?
539
00:46:48,699 --> 00:46:50,692
Not exactly.
540
00:46:51,704 --> 00:46:55,830
- l haven't asked her quite yet.
- Thank you very much.
541
00:46:58,876 --> 00:47:01,961
Look. l was gonna lose some weight first.
542
00:47:02,046 --> 00:47:06,956
and then l was gonna take her dancing
somewhere romantic.
543
00:47:07,050 --> 00:47:09,803
And then maybe pop the question.
544
00:47:11,221 --> 00:47:15,634
But l guess if l'm sweating all over the
place. that wouldn't be too romantic. huh?
545
00:47:16,350 --> 00:47:18,592
She's a great dancer.
546
00:47:21,564 --> 00:47:25,348
Well. don't listen to me.
What. are you...
547
00:47:27,319 --> 00:47:32,480
C'mon. don't be a big baby. l didn't mean
to upset you or anything. Jesus. Vern.
548
00:47:34,326 --> 00:47:36,566
l said l was sorry.
549
00:47:38,330 --> 00:47:39,657
Bobbie.
550
00:47:41,081 --> 00:47:43,157
Somebody call a doctor.
551
00:47:43,250 --> 00:47:45,824
Are you all right? She's out.
552
00:47:47,588 --> 00:47:51,502
lt's her electrolytes. They get crazy
because she overworks herself.
553
00:47:51,591 --> 00:47:54,379
She's been in here twice before.
554
00:47:54,470 --> 00:47:56,959
And it's getting so boring. Mom.
555
00:47:57,054 --> 00:48:00,341
- Shut up. Tina.
- No. you shut up. God. she pisses me off.
556
00:48:00,433 --> 00:48:04,217
She pulls a 1 2-hour shift at Jimmy's Diner.
working five till five.
557
00:48:04,311 --> 00:48:07,098
and then she goes and cooks and cleans
for an old feeb in a wheelchair
558
00:48:07,189 --> 00:48:09,477
to earn extra money
for her crazy costumes.
559
00:48:09,566 --> 00:48:13,232
And then she plays Cinderella
every night at dance practice.
560
00:48:13,321 --> 00:48:16,689
- When you should be home. resting.
- l don't need rest.
561
00:48:16,781 --> 00:48:20,196
Right. You need to hang out and flirt with
the shy guy with the nice-smelling sweat.
562
00:48:20,284 --> 00:48:22,822
- She told me all about you.
- Shut up. Tina.
563
00:48:22,912 --> 00:48:25,450
l never said his sweat smells nice.
l never said...
564
00:48:25,539 --> 00:48:28,078
She said it was the best-smelling sweat
she'd ever smelled.
565
00:48:28,168 --> 00:48:29,282
OK. kill me now.
566
00:48:29,377 --> 00:48:33,623
lt's all right. Bobbie. l've smelled his sweat
and l agree. it's not bad.
567
00:48:33,714 --> 00:48:36,715
Well. l mean. it's no field of flowers
after a spring rain...
568
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,089
Yeah. l think we've talked
about this enough.
569
00:48:39,177 --> 00:48:42,878
Maybe we should all go home now
and let Bobbie get some rest.
570
00:48:42,972 --> 00:48:44,514
- Yeah.
- Bye. sweetheart.
571
00:48:44,598 --> 00:48:47,599
Thank you. Thank you.
572
00:49:01,364 --> 00:49:05,064
Bobbie needs a partner for the competition.
573
00:49:05,159 --> 00:49:07,366
Why not you. John?
574
00:49:07,453 --> 00:49:13,242
Me? Competition? No. no. l can't...
She'd never go for it anyway. Forget it.
575
00:49:13,334 --> 00:49:18,078
Why not? What are you talking about?
You heard her daughter - she likes you.
576
00:49:18,170 --> 00:49:21,671
And dance begins
with the dancers' feelings.
577
00:49:21,758 --> 00:49:25,590
l'll work with the both of you after class.
Two extra hours.
578
00:49:25,678 --> 00:49:29,757
The Miss Mitzi Special.
We've got three months.
579
00:49:31,058 --> 00:49:33,181
This is good.
580
00:49:39,357 --> 00:49:41,396
What do you think?
581
00:49:43,445 --> 00:49:46,648
l think you better stock up on deodorant.
582
00:49:54,329 --> 00:49:58,541
Anything a client says
in a lawyer's office is confidential.
583
00:49:58,625 --> 00:50:01,957
So l've gotten used
to holding onto secrets.
584
00:50:02,044 --> 00:50:04,452
They're usually nothing incriminating.
585
00:50:04,546 --> 00:50:08,960
but a lot of people have accounts
they haven't reconciled -
586
00:50:09,051 --> 00:50:12,337
things they're just not ready to share.
587
00:50:20,312 --> 00:50:24,061
l took the liberty of ordering for you.
Bombay Sapphire. three limes.
588
00:50:24,149 --> 00:50:27,316
l hired you to watch my husband.
You're not supposed to be watching me.
589
00:50:27,402 --> 00:50:30,238
lt's very hard not to. Mrs. Clark -
with all due respect.
590
00:50:30,322 --> 00:50:33,026
- Are you a married man. Mr Devine?
- l was.
591
00:50:33,116 --> 00:50:36,070
- What happened?
- Unfaithful.
592
00:50:36,951 --> 00:50:38,826
- She hired a detective?
- No. no. no.
593
00:50:38,913 --> 00:50:42,825
When she found out.
l was too far gone. so...
594
00:50:42,916 --> 00:50:45,287
You're smiling at me.
595
00:50:45,376 --> 00:50:47,950
You are on a strange journey
to redemption. Mr Devine.
596
00:50:48,045 --> 00:50:50,667
And a very long one. Mrs. Clark.
597
00:50:54,467 --> 00:50:56,592
All these promises
that we make and we break.
598
00:50:56,679 --> 00:50:58,968
Why is it. do you think.
that people get married?
599
00:50:59,056 --> 00:51:01,725
- Passion.
- No.
600
00:51:01,809 --> 00:51:06,766
That's interesting. Because l would've
taken you for a romantic. Why. then?
601
00:51:08,148 --> 00:51:10,686
Because we need a witness to our lives.
602
00:51:10,776 --> 00:51:15,520
There's a billion people on the planet. l
mean. what does any one life really mean?
603
00:51:15,612 --> 00:51:21,199
But in a marriage. you're promising
to care about everything -
604
00:51:21,285 --> 00:51:25,448
the good things. the bad things.
the terrible things. the mundane things...
605
00:51:25,539 --> 00:51:28,077
All of it. All the time. every day.
606
00:51:28,167 --> 00:51:34,287
You're saying. ''Your life will not
go unnoticed. because l will notice it.''
607
00:51:34,380 --> 00:51:39,172
''Your life will not go unwitnessed.
because l will be your witness.''
608
00:51:42,888 --> 00:51:45,593
You can quote me on that. if you like.
609
00:51:46,182 --> 00:51:47,463
l'm sure l will.
610
00:51:47,559 --> 00:51:50,311
Anyway. the reason
that l called you here today.
611
00:51:50,395 --> 00:51:54,973
to tell you in person that l won't
be needing your services any more.
612
00:51:55,065 --> 00:51:56,524
l think to continue
613
00:51:56,609 --> 00:52:01,401
would be an unwarranted invasion
of my husband's privacy and...
614
00:52:01,488 --> 00:52:04,108
Anyway. even though there was a reason...
615
00:52:04,198 --> 00:52:08,826
l'm sorry for what l've done
and l know enough now and...
616
00:52:09,662 --> 00:52:11,821
it's time to stop.
617
00:52:13,083 --> 00:52:16,367
Thank you for everything and goodbye.
618
00:52:16,460 --> 00:52:18,204
Bye.
619
00:52:21,214 --> 00:52:23,208
Mrs. Clark?
620
00:52:24,300 --> 00:52:27,255
l was right. You are a romantic.
621
00:52:36,646 --> 00:52:38,306
Bobbie.
622
00:52:38,398 --> 00:52:40,436
- A new costume.
- Yeah.
623
00:52:40,524 --> 00:52:42,931
l got it from this mermaid dream
l had in the hospital.
624
00:52:43,026 --> 00:52:44,899
Just floated up from my subconscious.
625
00:52:44,986 --> 00:52:48,071
Where. tragically. it did not stay.
626
00:52:49,617 --> 00:52:52,452
Come on. partner.
What are you waiting for?
627
00:52:52,536 --> 00:52:54,741
Divine intervention?
628
00:52:54,829 --> 00:53:00,036
You're a brave man. John Clark. Not
just anyone could take on the Bobbinator.
629
00:53:00,126 --> 00:53:01,158
Yeah.
630
00:53:01,253 --> 00:53:03,291
Good luck. man. We're with you.
631
00:53:03,379 --> 00:53:07,459
Somebody help me up. Please?
632
00:53:08,467 --> 00:53:10,425
John.
633
00:53:13,097 --> 00:53:19,180
OK. 55 days from today you two
are gonna win the novice competition.
634
00:53:19,268 --> 00:53:22,222
That means you're gonna
have to master five dances.
635
00:53:22,312 --> 00:53:25,266
l've asked Paulina
to videotape you tonight.
636
00:53:25,357 --> 00:53:27,730
so you can see what you're doing wrong.
637
00:53:27,819 --> 00:53:30,440
Let's start with a rumba.
638
00:53:56,429 --> 00:53:58,800
What? What is it?
639
00:53:58,888 --> 00:54:02,507
lt's the rumba.
lt's the dance of love.
640
00:54:03,642 --> 00:54:06,133
And he's just not giving me anything.
641
00:54:06,227 --> 00:54:09,145
What does she want me to do?
l'm doing it exactly the way l was taught.
642
00:54:09,231 --> 00:54:10,346
You think it's easy...?
643
00:54:10,441 --> 00:54:15,980
The rumba is a vertical expression
of a horizontal wish.
644
00:54:16,070 --> 00:54:21,906
You have to hold her like the skin
on her thigh is your reason for living.
645
00:54:22,786 --> 00:54:27,364
Let her go like your heart's
being ripped from your chest.
646
00:54:28,291 --> 00:54:34,873
Pull her back like you're gonna have your
way with her. right here on the dance floor.
647
00:54:34,963 --> 00:54:37,371
And then finish...
648
00:54:38,675 --> 00:54:41,462
like she's ruined you for life.
649
00:54:54,899 --> 00:54:57,650
See? Why can't you just do it like that?
650
00:54:58,651 --> 00:55:01,937
Anyone else care for a glass of water?
651
00:55:04,741 --> 00:55:05,771
Damn it.
652
00:55:05,866 --> 00:55:07,444
No. not you.
653
00:55:07,536 --> 00:55:10,452
Look. l have to call you back.
654
00:55:10,538 --> 00:55:12,696
No. he's not home yet.
655
00:55:19,504 --> 00:55:22,292
What was the score at half-time
in the NBA playoffs last night?
656
00:55:22,382 --> 00:55:23,247
Why?
657
00:55:23,341 --> 00:55:25,084
Why? You said you watched.
What was the score?
658
00:55:25,176 --> 00:55:28,213
- l forget now.
- You didn't forget. You didn't watch.
659
00:55:28,304 --> 00:55:31,719
You don't care about playoffs.
You care about dancing.
660
00:55:32,726 --> 00:55:34,183
l do not.
661
00:55:34,268 --> 00:55:36,094
Yeah? Then what's this?
662
00:55:36,185 --> 00:55:39,520
Give me that. No.
Give me that. Give me...
663
00:55:39,606 --> 00:55:42,143
lt's not even mine. lt's my mother's.
664
00:55:44,027 --> 00:55:47,063
At least. it was my mother's until l took it
to this wonderful alterations guy
665
00:55:47,155 --> 00:55:49,562
who had it tailored for me.
666
00:55:50,866 --> 00:55:54,200
Look. it's not like l've figured this out either.
667
00:55:55,204 --> 00:55:56,947
- Listen...
- What?
668
00:55:57,039 --> 00:55:58,534
- Come back to class.
- No.
669
00:55:58,625 --> 00:56:02,122
You could take over as Bobbie's partner
in the Latin dances.
670
00:56:02,210 --> 00:56:05,543
You've got those knocked already.
There's no way l could learn 'em in time.
671
00:56:05,630 --> 00:56:08,120
l'm not comin' back
as the Bobbinator's partner.
672
00:56:08,215 --> 00:56:10,672
We'll look like an olive
and a toothpick together.
673
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,966
Besides. she would never dance with me.
674
00:56:13,054 --> 00:56:14,844
Sure she would.
675
00:56:14,930 --> 00:56:19,308
Just the Latin dances.
l'll still do the waltz and the quickstep.
676
00:56:19,393 --> 00:56:21,220
She would.
677
00:56:21,645 --> 00:56:23,188
No.
678
00:56:23,271 --> 00:56:27,601
Not if he was the last bald. bad-breathed.
heterosexual sequin-freak on earth -
679
00:56:27,693 --> 00:56:29,981
which he probably is.
l'm not doin' it.
680
00:56:30,069 --> 00:56:33,404
You wanna win the Latin competition
or not? lt's up to you. l don't care.
681
00:56:33,490 --> 00:56:37,485
Link already knows the dances.
And he'll be a good competitor.
682
00:56:37,575 --> 00:56:39,569
Right. Link?
683
00:56:46,918 --> 00:56:50,002
So. finally giving up
on the underage bimbettes
684
00:56:50,088 --> 00:56:52,163
and gonna go for a real woman?
ls that it?
685
00:56:52,257 --> 00:56:57,879
Yeah. no more underage bimbettes for me.
Only real women from now on.
686
00:56:57,970 --> 00:57:03,592
Don't even think about coming near me
without a breath mint. You got that?
687
00:57:03,683 --> 00:57:06,517
And quit lookin' at my ass.
688
00:57:06,602 --> 00:57:08,975
We'll try.
689
00:57:09,063 --> 00:57:13,689
Vern. you know.
there's a joyful freedom in your Latin.
690
00:57:13,776 --> 00:57:18,734
And Chic. you have an innate sensuality
quite uncommon in a man.
691
00:57:19,740 --> 00:57:23,571
l've entered you both in the competition
along with John.
692
00:57:25,412 --> 00:57:27,321
Good. That's settled.
693
00:57:48,850 --> 00:57:51,222
You are the frame.
694
00:57:51,311 --> 00:57:52,721
l'm the frame.
695
00:57:52,812 --> 00:57:56,892
- She is the picture...
- She is the picture...
696
00:57:56,982 --> 00:57:59,058
..in your frame.
697
00:57:59,152 --> 00:58:02,603
Everything that you do
is to show her off.
698
00:58:03,239 --> 00:58:05,563
- You got that?
- l didn't hear that.
699
00:58:19,962 --> 00:58:22,370
Nice. lnvite the lady in.
700
00:58:23,215 --> 00:58:26,132
And make the connection.
701
00:58:29,847 --> 00:58:32,551
Projecting to the third balcony.
702
00:58:35,059 --> 00:58:37,301
91 1 . 91 1 . quick.
703
00:58:37,395 --> 00:58:39,766
Quick. 91 1 . 9...
704
00:58:42,524 --> 00:58:46,474
And start here
with an initial sweep past the crowd.
705
00:58:46,570 --> 00:58:48,563
Watch.
706
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,152
And contra-check.
707
00:59:04,461 --> 00:59:06,538
Excellent.
708
00:59:52,255 --> 00:59:54,332
Jesus.
709
00:59:54,425 --> 00:59:56,002
We wanted something unusual.
710
00:59:56,092 --> 00:59:57,421
- Are you OK?
- Yeah.
711
00:59:57,511 --> 00:59:58,839
- You sure?
- No. l'm good.
712
00:59:58,929 --> 01:00:02,095
But you guys look exhausted.
713
01:00:02,182 --> 01:00:05,716
l tell you what. why don't we call it a night?
714
01:00:05,810 --> 01:00:09,344
For your sake. John.
You look like you're toast.
715
01:00:09,437 --> 01:00:12,604
- And tomorrow's a big day.
- Yeah.
716
01:00:12,690 --> 01:00:14,519
- Get home safe.
- OK.
717
01:00:15,193 --> 01:00:17,270
- l'm wearing you guys out.
- No. No. no. no.
718
01:00:17,363 --> 01:00:22,190
lt's good. l like it when my feet hurt.
Takes my mind off my knees.
719
01:00:22,284 --> 01:00:26,363
l've just been getting carried away. you
know. working hard with the two of you.
720
01:00:26,454 --> 01:00:29,822
l guess l like it. Feels good. you know?
721
01:00:29,915 --> 01:00:31,873
For me too.
722
01:00:33,001 --> 01:00:36,371
All right. Well. l'm going home.
723
01:00:36,464 --> 01:00:38,620
Wait.
724
01:00:41,634 --> 01:00:45,797
l wanted to talk to you about that night
that you asked me to dinner.
725
01:00:45,888 --> 01:00:49,222
l'm sorry about how l treated you.
726
01:00:50,059 --> 01:00:53,225
lt's just. you know. that people
get the wrong idea about me all the time.
727
01:00:53,312 --> 01:00:56,347
Paulina. you don't have to explain
anything to me. ever.
728
01:00:56,439 --> 01:00:59,607
Well. l know l don't have to explain
anything to anybody
729
01:00:59,693 --> 01:01:01,566
because l don't care
what people think about me.
730
01:01:01,653 --> 01:01:04,109
Good. Good.
731
01:01:04,198 --> 01:01:08,064
- l mean it.
- Yeah. Good. Good.
732
01:01:17,751 --> 01:01:20,538
l'm sorry. l shouldn't be here right now.
733
01:01:20,628 --> 01:01:26,298
No. it's OK.
l think l'm just hungry or something.
734
01:01:30,179 --> 01:01:32,385
- Hungry?
- Very.
735
01:01:34,892 --> 01:01:37,465
- This is so stupid.
- No.
736
01:01:37,561 --> 01:01:40,764
No. not at all. No. no.
l cry too when l'm hungry.
737
01:01:40,856 --> 01:01:43,525
For French fries. usually. You?
738
01:01:44,860 --> 01:01:46,437
Cake.
739
01:01:51,031 --> 01:01:53,570
Careful. Don't spill it on your new coat.
740
01:01:53,660 --> 01:01:56,825
- Old coat. new colour. l had it dyed.
- Yeah?
741
01:01:56,911 --> 01:01:59,782
Yeah. my dad did it. He's a dry-cleaner.
742
01:01:59,873 --> 01:02:04,001
As is my mom. my brother.
my two older sisters and me.
743
01:02:04,085 --> 01:02:06,457
l told you l know about stains.
744
01:02:06,546 --> 01:02:11,373
- You're a dry-cleaner?
- Well. l was. Until l was eight.
745
01:02:11,467 --> 01:02:14,172
Actually. that's when l started dancing.
746
01:02:14,262 --> 01:02:16,931
l was helping out in the store
one day after school
747
01:02:17,015 --> 01:02:19,968
when my mom asked me
to go in the back and get an order.
748
01:02:20,059 --> 01:02:26,143
lt was this incredibly delicate sequinned
thing. held together by a gold thread.
749
01:02:26,230 --> 01:02:30,275
Well. l carried the costume
like it was gonna break.
750
01:02:30,359 --> 01:02:32,768
And then l saw the customer.
751
01:02:32,862 --> 01:02:37,440
She was the most beautiful woman
l had ever laid eyes on.
752
01:02:37,532 --> 01:02:43,238
She invited us to see her dance that night.
and my mother said yes.
753
01:02:45,625 --> 01:02:51,413
lt was like the whole world had suddenly
gone from black-and-white to colour.
754
01:02:51,505 --> 01:02:55,168
The beautiful woman and her partner
stopped right in front of us
755
01:02:55,257 --> 01:02:57,831
and did a waltz pose.
756
01:02:57,926 --> 01:03:02,054
She tilted her head back
and she winked at me.
757
01:03:03,141 --> 01:03:07,007
And l felt like she was trying
to tell me something.
758
01:03:07,101 --> 01:03:09,427
l took it as a sign.
759
01:03:09,521 --> 01:03:14,942
And from then on. l knew
that ballroom dancing would be my life.
760
01:03:20,448 --> 01:03:24,030
lt wasn't the kind of dream
my parents had in mind.
761
01:03:25,619 --> 01:03:28,074
What made you wanna dance?
762
01:03:28,705 --> 01:03:30,698
You.
763
01:03:32,293 --> 01:03:35,790
Looking out that window. right up there.
764
01:03:37,004 --> 01:03:39,875
You can see it from the train and...
765
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:46,838
every night l'd come home from work
and l'd look for you. your face.
766
01:03:48,598 --> 01:03:53,011
You looked on the outside
the way l was feeling on the inside.
767
01:03:53,103 --> 01:03:55,178
l was watching you too.
768
01:03:55,271 --> 01:03:57,512
From the window
l saw you practising on the platform.
769
01:03:57,606 --> 01:03:59,598
No.
770
01:04:03,946 --> 01:04:10,067
That night l said all those things to you.
l didn't think l'd ever see you again.
771
01:04:12,370 --> 01:04:14,908
But you kept coming back.
772
01:04:14,997 --> 01:04:17,036
l didn't want to.
773
01:04:18,126 --> 01:04:22,953
But l figured if l hadn't. you'd have been
right about everything you accused me of.
774
01:04:23,047 --> 01:04:26,582
Then l started dancing and l found
l really liked it. lt made me happy.
775
01:04:26,675 --> 01:04:28,798
Yes. it shows.
776
01:04:28,886 --> 01:04:34,424
l mean. l feel excited about something
for the first time in such a long time.
777
01:04:34,515 --> 01:04:36,094
- Aren't you?
- Excited?
778
01:04:36,185 --> 01:04:39,269
About tomorrow. The competition.
779
01:04:39,354 --> 01:04:42,355
No. no. no. l'm petrified. l'm...
780
01:04:43,148 --> 01:04:46,065
l'm gonna forget everything. l won't be able
to put one foot in front of the other.
781
01:04:46,150 --> 01:04:49,437
- l'll make a mess of the whole thing.
- No.
782
01:04:54,492 --> 01:04:56,949
Give me one hour.
783
01:05:04,711 --> 01:05:07,746
Leave it. Leave the light.
784
01:05:13,677 --> 01:05:17,128
Don't say anything and don't think.
785
01:05:19,850 --> 01:05:23,053
And don't move unless you feel it.
786
01:07:51,031 --> 01:07:53,319
Be this alive.
787
01:07:56,702 --> 01:07:59,453
Be this alive tomorrow.
788
01:08:13,676 --> 01:08:15,716
Thank you.
789
01:09:17,277 --> 01:09:19,601
God. l'm sorry.
l'm sorry. l lost my balance.
790
01:09:19,695 --> 01:09:21,403
That's OK. l lost my fiance.
791
01:09:21,489 --> 01:09:22,769
Lisa. Lisa.
792
01:09:22,865 --> 01:09:25,783
- There you are.
- Found the earring.
793
01:09:30,496 --> 01:09:33,414
John Clark. Photo op. Come on.
794
01:09:33,916 --> 01:09:35,411
Smile. everyone.
795
01:09:35,501 --> 01:09:38,205
Paso doble.
796
01:09:39,713 --> 01:09:42,630
- Good luck. everybody.
- Good luck.
797
01:09:43,217 --> 01:09:44,545
- Hey.
- Yeah.
798
01:09:44,635 --> 01:09:48,501
So what did l tell you?
Girls love guys who can dance. right?
799
01:09:48,596 --> 01:09:51,550
Even l got a partner. Check it out.
800
01:09:51,642 --> 01:09:53,551
Cute.
801
01:09:53,643 --> 01:09:57,723
- But who's the guy?
- That's her brother.
802
01:09:59,440 --> 01:10:02,311
Yeah. we play basketball together.
803
01:10:08,823 --> 01:10:12,868
Aren't they adorable?
They're gonna get slaughtered.
804
01:10:12,953 --> 01:10:14,945
Don't say that.
805
01:10:16,498 --> 01:10:18,490
Mr Clark.
806
01:10:19,500 --> 01:10:21,244
John?
807
01:10:22,212 --> 01:10:25,711
You look blue. Breathe.
808
01:10:31,220 --> 01:10:32,762
Thanks.
809
01:10:35,723 --> 01:10:38,760
Ladies and gentlemen. good evening.
810
01:10:38,851 --> 01:10:42,719
The Chicago Taittinger Trophy
Latin competition will now begin.
811
01:10:42,814 --> 01:10:47,439
Judges. this is a semifinal round
with 1 1 couples on the floor.
812
01:10:47,526 --> 01:10:51,441
And now. ladies and gentlemen.

813
01:10:51,531 --> 01:10:53,273
Music. please.
814
01:11:16,887 --> 01:11:19,294
Nice chasse. Vern.
815
01:11:49,417 --> 01:11:51,207
Whoa.
816
01:12:14,731 --> 01:12:17,056
Let's hear it for the cha-cha.

817
01:12:17,150 --> 01:12:21,230
Who's your favourite couple out there?
Let them hear their numbers.
818
01:12:21,321 --> 01:12:25,270
We danced like shit.
All you did was worry about that stupid wig.
819
01:12:25,366 --> 01:12:27,360
Well. what did you expect me to do?
You saw...
820
01:12:27,452 --> 01:12:29,693
l know. he's a pig.
But you know what? This is Latin.
821
01:12:29,787 --> 01:12:32,028
The judges are looking at your hips.
not your hair.
822
01:12:32,122 --> 01:12:36,121
So unless that thing
looks good on your ass. lose it.
823
01:12:36,709 --> 01:12:38,702
Fine.
824
01:12:44,425 --> 01:12:47,094
We love you. baldy.
825
01:12:47,804 --> 01:12:49,215
Thank you. dancers.
826
01:12:49,305 --> 01:12:52,970
Please take your positions for your second
and final dance of this competition.
827
01:12:53,058 --> 01:12:55,549
the paso doble.
828
01:12:55,644 --> 01:12:57,268
Music. please.
829
01:13:23,169 --> 01:13:25,743
Looks like he got rid
of a lot more than the wig.
830
01:14:33,985 --> 01:14:37,852
Ladies and gentlemen. l have
the final results for the Latin competition.
831
01:14:37,946 --> 01:14:41,860
Your finalists are couple 1 02...
832
01:14:43,077 --> 01:14:46,113
We did it. Lisa. we did it. we did it.
833
01:14:46,205 --> 01:14:47,947
Couple 1 04.
834
01:14:51,167 --> 01:14:54,501

835
01:14:54,879 --> 01:14:56,835

836
01:14:56,923 --> 01:14:59,329
Couple 1 1 0.
837
01:14:59,424 --> 01:15:01,465
And couple 1 05...
838
01:15:01,553 --> 01:15:04,222
has been disqualified.
839
01:15:04,305 --> 01:15:06,297
What?
840
01:15:11,310 --> 01:15:13,600
l thought Slick Willy was pretty good.
841
01:15:13,687 --> 01:15:18,017
Bad attitude. Ungentlemanly behaviour.
lt's a British sport. after all.
842
01:15:18,108 --> 01:15:20,315
- The man was working it.
- Well...
843
01:15:20,403 --> 01:15:22,478
lmmediately following.
the standard competition.
844
01:15:22,570 --> 01:15:23,734
Ladies and gentlemen.
845
01:15:25,490 --> 01:15:27,779
the Chicago Taittinger Trophy
standard competition will now begin.
846
01:15:28,285 --> 01:15:32,033
Judges. this is a semifinal round
with ten couples on the floor.
847
01:15:32,122 --> 01:15:35,122
They'll be dancing the waltz
and the quickstep.
848
01:15:35,208 --> 01:15:37,579
Now. ladies and gentlemen.
let's bring our dancers out
849
01:15:37,669 --> 01:15:39,542
with a nice big round of applause.
850
01:15:39,629 --> 01:15:42,381
Couples 1 1 5...
851
01:15:42,881 --> 01:15:44,755
Couple 1 1 6.
852
01:15:48,970 --> 01:15:51,010
Couple number 1 1 7.
853
01:15:53,308 --> 01:15:55,715
Couple number 1 1 8.
854
01:15:57,104 --> 01:15:58,810
Couple number 1 1 9.
855
01:16:00,188 --> 01:16:02,312
Couple 1 20.
856
01:16:02,901 --> 01:16:04,976
Couple 1 21 ...
857
01:16:08,239 --> 01:16:09,780
Wow.
858
01:16:11,325 --> 01:16:13,731
Come on. come on. we're gonna be late.
859
01:16:15,119 --> 01:16:17,077
You're not gonna
choke on me. are you?
860
01:16:17,164 --> 01:16:19,072
l think my feet are asleep.
l don't remember anything...
861
01:16:19,165 --> 01:16:21,406
Don't worry. You're great.
You look beautiful.
862
01:16:21,500 --> 01:16:24,121
And finally. couple number 1 26.
863
01:16:37,515 --> 01:16:41,097
- There they are.
- Yeah. They look nervous.
864
01:16:41,185 --> 01:16:43,344
No. not them. Them.
865
01:16:48,317 --> 01:16:49,976
You invited them?
866
01:16:50,068 --> 01:16:51,978
She said she wanted
to be a witness to her husband's life.
867
01:16:52,071 --> 01:16:54,110
l thought she should witness this.
868
01:16:54,198 --> 01:17:00,365
So you're a marriage counsellor now. But
could you at least bill Mrs. Clark for that?
869
01:17:01,287 --> 01:17:04,074
As our dancers take their positions
for their first dance.
870
01:17:04,164 --> 01:17:10,498
l'd like to remind the judges that you'll be
recalling six couples for the final round.
871
01:17:10,586 --> 01:17:14,917
Ladies and gentlemen.
your first dance is the waltz.
872
01:17:17,093 --> 01:17:19,419
Music. please.
873
01:17:45,662 --> 01:17:47,903
Well done.
874
01:17:56,338 --> 01:17:58,330
He's awesome.
875
01:17:59,049 --> 01:18:01,337
Dad is awesome.
876
01:18:32,872 --> 01:18:34,863
Spectacular.
877
01:18:36,208 --> 01:18:38,035
lt's spectacular.
878
01:19:08,738 --> 01:19:10,280
1 1 6.
879
01:19:20,457 --> 01:19:22,699
Way to go. Dad.
880
01:19:27,797 --> 01:19:29,920
Such a beautiful waltz.
881
01:19:30,007 --> 01:19:31,918
We weren't terrible. l can't believe it.
882
01:19:32,010 --> 01:19:34,797
Of course we weren't -
you were dancing with me. you big nut.
883
01:19:34,888 --> 01:19:38,718
..the second and final dance
of this competition. the quickstep.
884
01:19:47,357 --> 01:19:50,606
- ls your daughter here tonight?
- No. Why?
885
01:19:50,694 --> 01:19:54,311
l thought l heard someone
yell at you ''Go. Dad.''
886
01:20:18,093 --> 01:20:19,837
Yes.
887
01:20:35,944 --> 01:20:37,437
1 26.
888
01:20:37,820 --> 01:20:39,812
Go. Dad.
889
01:20:48,538 --> 01:20:50,365
Way to go. Dad.
890
01:21:55,474 --> 01:21:57,350
- Beverly.
- Dad.
891
01:21:57,435 --> 01:21:59,891
- Wait a minute. Wait. wait.
- Dad. you were terrific.
892
01:21:59,978 --> 01:22:02,730
Get in the car. Jen. Just get in the car.
893
01:22:02,815 --> 01:22:05,306
Beverly. how did you know?
894
01:22:05,401 --> 01:22:08,817
Because l hired a detective. Yeah.
l thought you were having an affair.
895
01:22:08,905 --> 01:22:12,355
- lt's ridiculous. l know. OK. l feel...
- Listen. that was really bad luck.
896
01:22:12,448 --> 01:22:14,488
Don't worry. There's always next year.
897
01:22:14,576 --> 01:22:18,786
''There's always next year.'' Thanks.
Well. l have a whole year to prepare for it.
898
01:22:18,871 --> 01:22:21,788
- Beverly. please. can we talk...
- No. there's nothing to talk about.
899
01:22:21,875 --> 01:22:25,125
Please. Will you please stay here...
900
01:22:28,421 --> 01:22:30,960
Stop. No.
901
01:22:31,049 --> 01:22:33,207
- Please. will you talk to me?
- lf you want to talk.
902
01:22:33,301 --> 01:22:36,919
you can start by explaining what was it
that l just saw in there? What did l witness?
903
01:22:37,013 --> 01:22:38,921
l'm not having an affair. There was no aff...
904
01:22:39,014 --> 01:22:41,471
What's goin' on?
905
01:22:41,558 --> 01:22:43,598
- Let's go.
- They're new friends.
906
01:22:43,687 --> 01:22:47,469
But you could've told me about it. couldn't
you? You just completely left me out.
907
01:22:47,564 --> 01:22:50,730
Why didn't you tell me. John?
You've gotta answer that.
908
01:22:50,817 --> 01:22:53,224
- l was ashamed.
- Ashamed of what? Of dancing?
909
01:22:53,319 --> 01:22:56,025
- Well. no. no...
- Well. then of what?
910
01:22:56,824 --> 01:22:59,111
Of wanting to be happier.
911
01:23:00,118 --> 01:23:02,525
When we have so much.
912
01:23:05,914 --> 01:23:08,453
And it's not your fault.
913
01:23:09,543 --> 01:23:12,877
Fred Astaire.
You're blocking traffic.
914
01:23:19,052 --> 01:23:21,294
Finally. Thank you.
915
01:23:37,068 --> 01:23:42,110
The reading of a will
can actually come as a kind of relief.
916
01:23:43,616 --> 01:23:48,527
After the initial shock wears off
about that trust fund for the family dog.
917
01:23:48,620 --> 01:23:51,953
or the opera seats left to the gardener.
918
01:23:52,041 --> 01:23:57,709
there is at least the sense
that everything is finally out on the table.
919
01:23:58,797 --> 01:24:02,380
This. you are not gonna believe this. guys.
Louis. Louis.
920
01:24:02,468 --> 01:24:05,137
''Link started dancing in 1 985.''
921
01:24:05,221 --> 01:24:09,298
''lt soon became his passion
and he started dancing six days a week.''
922
01:24:09,389 --> 01:24:11,347
''Lawyer by day and dancer by night.
923
01:24:11,434 --> 01:24:14,352
Link really lights up the floor
with all of his energy.''
924
01:24:14,436 --> 01:24:18,648
See? l told you. l knew it.
l knew Link Peterson was a freaky bastard.
925
01:24:18,732 --> 01:24:22,730
l think Linky Link might be batting
for the other team. you know what l mean?
926
01:24:23,569 --> 01:24:27,401
Could those pants be any tighter?
Look at his package.
927
01:24:27,490 --> 01:24:29,363
Somebody get a magnifying glass.
928
01:24:29,449 --> 01:24:34,445
There is nothing wrong
with ballroom dancing.
929
01:24:42,796 --> 01:24:44,788
Sorry.
930
01:24:57,977 --> 01:25:00,135
Fuck you all.
931
01:25:00,938 --> 01:25:03,263
And football sucks.
932
01:25:14,575 --> 01:25:16,116
- How you doin'?
- Hey.
933
01:25:16,201 --> 01:25:17,743
Surprise.
934
01:25:17,828 --> 01:25:20,070
- This is gorgeous.
- Yeah. it's a pretty spot.
935
01:25:20,164 --> 01:25:21,906
Thanks.
936
01:25:21,998 --> 01:25:23,742
John. look. we just wanted
to talk to you for a minute.
937
01:25:23,834 --> 01:25:27,333
Yeah. l just hope that you weren't
staying away from class on account of me.
938
01:25:27,419 --> 01:25:30,255
l'm not mad about you ripping my dress
or anything. Seriously.
939
01:25:30,339 --> 01:25:31,963
l mean. l know you always
wanted to look at my ass
940
01:25:32,049 --> 01:25:35,751
and l think you picked a pretty weird time
to do it. but l forgive you. John.
941
01:25:35,845 --> 01:25:38,051
- Thanks. Thank you.
- Honestly. OK?
942
01:25:38,138 --> 01:25:40,096
Come on. can we tell Miss Mitzi
you're coming back?
943
01:25:40,182 --> 01:25:46,101
l'm sorry. guys. l'm not coming back.
lt's... lt's... l'm done with that now.
944
01:25:46,187 --> 01:25:50,482
But thanks a lot for coming out here.
l really appreciate that.
945
01:25:50,566 --> 01:25:52,606
John. look...
946
01:25:52,694 --> 01:25:56,940
Paulina. you know. she's gonna
go to England to study dance.
947
01:25:57,030 --> 01:26:00,696
and we're havin' a little. you know.
going-away party for her
948
01:26:00,784 --> 01:26:05,945
and we'd love for you to come.
Really love it if you would come by.
949
01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:09,123
She gave me this to give to you. so...
950
01:26:13,921 --> 01:26:18,085
Anyway. we hope that we see you there.
All right?
951
01:26:18,175 --> 01:26:19,799
All right. come on.
952
01:26:19,884 --> 01:26:22,128
- Bye. John.
- Bye.
953
01:26:29,186 --> 01:26:33,017
''l hope you're not upset about
what happened with you and Bobbie.''
954
01:26:33,106 --> 01:26:36,142
''Because you were wonderful that night.''
955
01:26:36,233 --> 01:26:41,476
''l'd hate to think that what happened
would make you give it all up.''
956
01:26:41,572 --> 01:26:44,987
''You looked so graceful
and brave out there -
957
01:26:45,076 --> 01:26:50,745
a different person from the one
who first walked into Miss Mitzi's studio.''
958
01:26:50,830 --> 01:26:55,872
''But a lot has changed for both of us
over the last few months.''
959
01:26:57,753 --> 01:27:00,837
''When my partner and l
went to Blackpool last year.
960
01:27:00,923 --> 01:27:04,374
we were so excited
to make it to the finals.''
961
01:27:06,594 --> 01:27:09,512
''Everyone was convinced
that we were going to win.
962
01:27:09,597 --> 01:27:12,134
and we wanted to prove them right.''
963
01:27:12,224 --> 01:27:15,974
''We'd been together as a couple
for as long as we'd been partners.''
964
01:27:16,062 --> 01:27:22,562
''But we began training too hard.
pushing each other. expecting too much.''
965
01:27:23,943 --> 01:27:28,156
''Well. we didn't win.
Not even close.''
966
01:27:30,950 --> 01:27:35,198
''l came back
without my trophy or my partner.''
967
01:27:35,913 --> 01:27:39,364
''And all this time
l've been hiding out at Miss Mitzi's.
968
01:27:39,458 --> 01:27:43,788
angry at myself.
frustrated and embarrassed.''
969
01:27:46,048 --> 01:27:51,422
''But coaching you and Bobbie.
seeing how alive you were out there.
970
01:27:51,512 --> 01:27:54,631
made me realise
just how much l'd given up.''
971
01:28:20,330 --> 01:28:24,991
''And now.
for the first time in a long time.
972
01:28:26,418 --> 01:28:28,992
l want to dance again.''
973
01:28:31,298 --> 01:28:37,003
''So l need to thank you - thank you
for helping me to see this.''
974
01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:46,889
''l hope l get to see you and dance
with you once more before l leave.''
975
01:28:49,815 --> 01:28:51,807
''Paulina.''
976
01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:05,154
Thanks.
977
01:29:08,124 --> 01:29:11,289
By the way. l'm not going to this party.
978
01:29:11,376 --> 01:29:12,575
OK.
979
01:29:12,670 --> 01:29:16,038
But you're not giving up dancing. are you?
980
01:29:19,593 --> 01:29:23,043
You could teach me to dance.
981
01:29:26,014 --> 01:29:28,766
Beverly. l'm not dancing any more.
982
01:29:29,602 --> 01:29:31,476
Why not. Dad?
983
01:29:33,272 --> 01:29:36,688
Why don't you teach Mom how to dance?
984
01:29:55,834 --> 01:30:00,791
The one thing l am proudest of
in my whole life...
985
01:30:02,883 --> 01:30:05,837
is that you are happy with me.
986
01:30:05,928 --> 01:30:10,968
lf l couldn't... if l couldn't tell you
that l was unhappy sometimes.
987
01:30:11,057 --> 01:30:16,893
it was because l didn't want to risk hurting
the one person l treasure most.
988
01:30:19,898 --> 01:30:22,021
l'm so sorry.
989
01:31:56,238 --> 01:31:59,404
So. John. l'll see you at the party. huh?
990
01:33:20,106 --> 01:33:21,848
l like this palette. lt looks lovely.
991
01:33:21,940 --> 01:33:26,437
l just am now worried. though.
that these guys are too dark...
992
01:34:04,189 --> 01:34:06,394
lt's a silly rose.
993
01:34:06,482 --> 01:34:08,688
