Post by bunniefuu »

[Theme music]

Theme song: Love.

Exciting and new.

Come aboard.

We're expecting you.

And love, life's
sweetest reward.

Let it flow.

It floats back to you.

The love boat soon will
be making another run.

The love boat promises
something for everyone.

Set a course for adventure,
your mind on a new romance.

And love won't hurt anymore.

It's an open smile
on a friendly shore.

It's love.

Welcome aboard.

It's love.

[Music playing]

[Applause]

Isn't this fun?

Uh-huh.

I feel like we should
be sailing the coney

island instead of Mexico.

[Laughter]

Good work, Julie, booking
this carnival aboard.

Thank you, sir.

I thought the passengers
would enjoy something unusual.

[Applause]

What's unusual?

Merrill.

Well, if it isn't the king
of the carnivals himself.

How are you, you old sea dog?

Oh, never better.

Sea dog?

Vicki, long before
this character

started running carnivals,
we were buddies in the Navy.

Kyle cummings, this
is my daughter, Vicki.

- Hello, Vicki.
- How do you do?

I'm sure you've met Julie.

Yes.

And I must say our troop
couldn't be in more

capable or lovely hands.

Well, I could stand here
and listen to this all day.

But if I'm going to
earn those compliments,

I better get to work.

Would you care to join me?

Sure.

See you later,
you old sea dog.

[Chuckling]

Well, she's adorable.

Thanks.

Well, looks like life
is treating you well.

Oh, I can't complain.

And the ladies don't either.

Merrill: I see what you mean.

Well, if you've got
it, you've got it.

[Laughs]

Let's have a cup of coffee.

Yeah.

Excuse me.

Can you point me
towards aloha deck?

It's not polite to point.

Aloha I one deck up.

However, as it is on
my way to my office,

I'm Adam bricker,
the ship's doctor.

Aurora Adams.

[Honking]

[Laughs]

Thank you.

But I'm not ready
to go just yet.

My editor would never
forgive me if I didn't

capture some of this on film.

Well, since you're
a photographer,

this carnival should
be paradise for you.

Mm.

And there's one sh*t I've
waited my whole life to take.

Bye bye.

Bye.

Hello there.

I'm Scott pryor.

How do you do?

And this dazzling creature
is the magnificent Minerva,

palm reader extraordinaire.

[Chuckles]

My real name is Wendy.

Since Scott became
the carnival barker,

he turns everything into
a special attraction.

Wendy, mother nature made you
a special attraction, not me.

We were just married today.

Where is our cabin?

Well, congratulations.

Thank you.

Mr. Pryor, you're on the
promenade deck, cabin .

That's right up the stairs.

Thank you.

Come on.

Let's go.

Uh, miss, do you know
where the gift shop is?

The gift shop?

Uh, yes I need
to get something.

It's very important.

It's right over there.

But--

why don't you
just go on upstairs

and I'll meet you in the cabin.

Eh.

Please.

Ok.

Mm.

Excuse me.

I was going to say
that the gift shop

doesn't open until we sail.

I know.

I just can't go up to the
cabin right now with him.

Honeymoon nerves.

Well, don't worry.

A lot of brides get them.

It's normal.

Believe me, my
problem isn't normal.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm Chester o'brien from Ryan
& o'brien's trained bear act.

Mm.

Have you seen my
partner chip Ryan?

Chip: That's it, boys.
Keep a good hold on him now.

Now, watch out, folks.

He is dangerous.

[Growling]

He hasn't had his lunch yet.

And I'd prefer you weren't it.

[Laughs]

That's him.

Chip, where did
you get the bear?

I'll tell you later.

Folks, this is my
partner, Chester o'brien,

the single greatest bear
act trainer in the world.

Chester, show them your fingers.

See-- he still has
all nine of them.

About the bear--

oh, what a sweetie thing.

Hi, honey.

Forget about the bear.

What about that?

Yeah.

What about that?

Hi.

I'm chip Ryan.

And I'm Chester o'brien.

And that's our bear.

Oh, hi.

I'm dottie becks.

And I'm just crazy
about animals.

I love your bear.

I love you, dottie.

And after the cruise,
we'll pick out furniture.

Ignore him.

How about dinner and marriage?

Oh, come on, guys.

Give a girl a chance.

Look, I'll be at
the carnival later.

I'll see you there.

Forget it, chip.

She has eyes only for me.

The eyes are all yours.

It's the rest I'm interested in.

[Growling]

What is this bear doing here?

He's part of the carnival.

What happened to you?

I tried to pet
this guy on the dock

and he took a swipe at
me, dislocated my thumb.

This guy's a mani.

[Growling]

He sure looks mean.

What are you going to do
with a mean, -pound bear?

Put him in the cargo
hold where he belongs.

[Growling]

On second thought,
maybe we could find

him a nice available suite.

How about fiesta ?

You got a king-sized bed?

[Horn sounds]

[Chatter]

Honey, you can do that later.

Well, I just don't want
these costumes to wrinkle.

You don't have
to wear any for me.

Isn't it almost time
for the carnival to begin?

Shouldn't we be up on deck?

Now, Mr. Cummings
is not going to mind

if we're a little bit late.

After all, we're
on our honeymoon.

But Scott, he
hired us to work.

I just wouldn't feel right.

Mm.

But you feel just fine to me.

Uh, well, we haven't dressed.

And we haven't set up the booze.

Uh, and we have a lot to do.

Now, I thought we
got married to do it.

Oh, Scott.

But you know what they say--

the show must go on.

[Music playing]

Yeah.

Well, I was hoping the show
might be the newlywed game.

[Growling]

This is some replacement.

[Growling]

You sure that thing
is a trained bear?

Hey, Chester, I
did the best I could.

Old brutus came down with
a cold only two days ago.

You don't find animals
in the supermarket.

You obviously don't
shop in Hollywood.

Come on.

I got a good deal on this guy.

I got him cheap.

Chester: What did he
do, eat his last owner?

[Laughs]

Don't be so gruesome--

just his head.
- Goodbye.

Chester, wait a minute.

Wait a minute now.

We've got to fulfill
this booking.

Cummings bought Ryan &
o'brien's trained bear.

Hey, I couldn't
train that thing

with a whip and a bazooka.

The bear is not
going to do the act.

Step into my office.

Voila.

Voila.

I think that means Chester's
about to get it in the neck.

[Growling]

You want me to get
inside that bear suit?

Chipper, your brain is
going to silly putty.

We would never get
away with that.

Why not?

Chester, you taught
brutus all his tricks.

You know them.

You could pass yourself off
as a bear with no problem.

Uh-uh.
No way.

No way.

You ever been inside
one of those suits?

It's like a sauna with fur.

Chester, you've got to do it.

We're broke.

And there's no way we can
pay cummings back his $ ,

advance.

I know I'm going to hate
the answer to this question.

But why not?

Well, the bear costs $ .

Ok?

And the suit was $ .

And, uh, the rest went
on a horse that finished

last at Hollywood park.

[Sigh]

Ok.

Ok.

But only because i'm
allergic to debtors' prison.

Ah, what a trooper.

[Growling]

[Music playing]

[Drum roll]

[Cheering and applause]

[Music playing]

Woman (on pa): Ladies and
gentlemen, our carnival

is now in full swing.

So come up to the lido deck
for all those fun and games.

Man: Ladies and
gentlemen, who's next?

The magnificent,
maneuverable, amazing--

oh, I'm so glad you
brought your carnival aboard,

Mr. Cummings.

I'm having so much fun.
- Good.

Yeah, So am I, Kyle.

You know, I feel
like a kid again.

Well, kid, why don't you
take your youthful hand

and try one of our
games of skill.

Oh!

Come on.

Step right up and
show your strength.

Don't be bashful, gentlemen.

Here's your chance to touch
those muscles for the ladies.

Ah, captain, how about you?

Uh, well, no.

I, uh-- I don't think so.
I'm--

[coughs]

--A little out of shape.

Oh, come on, captain.

Come on.

[Applause]

Come on, dad.

Try it.

Maybe you will win me a prize.

Uh, ok.

For you, honey.

Step right up, captain.

[Applause]

[Chatter]

[Bell rings]

[Cheering and applause]

That's my dad.

Give the captain a prize.

And you young guys had better
stay away from his daughter.

[Laughter]

Never a moments doubt.

Mm hmm.

Come on.

Step right up and--

man: Hurry, hurry, hurry.

Three tries to dunk
the lovely lady.

[Inaudible].

Hey, this looks like fun.

Yeah.

So does the game.

Yeah.

I could probably dunk
her with one toss

if it wasn't for my bad wing.

Gopher, you're right-handed.

Technically.

I'll give it a sh*t--

see if the strikeout king of
the interns' baseball team

still has the old magic.

Uh, just one.

Man: Three tries to
dunk the lovely lady.

Step right up.

Step right up.

[Drum roll]

[Laughs]

Hey, doc.

That was great.

All right.

Man.

You keep the doll.

I just want to dry her off.

Isaac: Boy, was that good.

[Cheering and applause]

Man: Step right up and
try your hand [inaudible]..

Let the magnificent
Minerva read your palm.

Pardon me.

I'm a photographer.

And I couldn't help
noticing you have

a peculiarly photogenic face.

I don't know.

Is that a compliment, miss--

Aurora Adams.

Kyle cummings.

Could I steal
you away for a bit?

[Chuckles]

A more willing subject
you will never find.

Oh, Chester, I really
want to win a prize.

Go right ahead.

I've already won mine--

dotty becks.

Wind her up, and
she turns you on.

[Laughs]

Oh, I missed.

I don't you're
[Inaudible] win.

What you need, my dear,
is a little personal

one-on-one instruction.

What are you doing here?

Didn't they take your money
over at the kissing booth?

Just place yourself
entirely in my hands.

Watch out.

He's got three of them.

Shouldn't you rehearse
for tonight's performance?

Chester's our bear trainer.

Really?

Oh, you must be so brave.

Fearless.

I'm just dying
to see your act.

Oh, there is
your cue, Chester.

Come on.
Rehearsal time.

Let's go, big guy.
- All right.

All right.

But just imagine that I put a,
do not disturb sign, on her.

Ok?

He is just so nice.

Oh, he's a wonderful guy--

my best buddy.

Now, let's forget him and
concentrate on us, shall we?

Ok.

Here we go.

Tuck in that abdomen.
Here you go.

Nice, deep breath.

But remember,
just because I see

a man in the palm of your
hand, it doesn't always

mean you can keep him there.

Man: Ladies and
gentlemen, who's next?

The magnificent
Minerva will amaze you

with her astounding
predictions of the future.

(Whispers) My love,
I've fixed a cabin

rendezvous in minutes.

Think you can sneak away?

I don't know.

[Inaudible].

Well, if nobody
else wants to, I will.

Hi.

Hi.

Now, Julie, if i'm
going to read your palm,

you're going to have
to quit shaking.

Wendy, I'm not shaking.

You are.

[Laughs]

Sorry.

I guess I'm just a little
nervous about the honeymoon.

More than a little nervous.

[Soft music playing]

What is it?

I can't tell you.

I can't tell anybody.

[Music playing]

Honey.

Wendy: Don't come in!

I'm not ready yet.

Well, Wendy,
sweetheart, it's--

it's customary
for married people

to get dressed in the same room.

Wendy: I want to surprise you.

Mm.

Well, surprise me.

Ta da.

Oh, wow.

You look gorgeous.

Thank you.

Mm.

What do you say we have our
dinner in the cabin tonight?

Oh, honey, I was
looking forward

to going to the dining room--

a romantic table for two.

Oh, but we can have plenty
of romance right here.

Why don't we just
save it for dessert?

[Soft music playing]

Mm.

Bride two, groom zero.

Ooh.

[Light chatter]

Well, well, well, well, well.

If it isn't the Charlie
brown of lovers.

If you're thinking
about dinner,

the kitchen has takeout.

Do you two carry on
like this all the time?

No.

Only about minor things,
like women, money, life.

In case you haven't noticed,
uh, the table is set for two.

Perfect.

I'll keep dottie company.

The act starts very shortly.

We want to be sure
the bear is ready.

Yes, I know.

But I haven't eaten yet.

Uh, gee.

[Laughs]

Ok.

But I think I'll take a little
dessert just to tide me over.

[Chuckles]

Goodbye, Chester.

Here.

Let me clean that mess up.

[Chuckling]

Did you all have
fun at the carnival?

- Yes.
- Oh, yeah.

It was fantastic.

I had so much
cotton candy my mouth

is going to be dry for a week.

[Laughter]

I'm going to
throw away my scale

and try guessing my
patients' weights.

You know, Kyle, I think we all
have a case of carnival fever.

With all that's going
on, you must have gotten

some great pictures, Ms. Adams.

Well, I was fortunate enough
to have one particularly

fascinating subject--

a face filled with mystery.

I hate to disillusion
you, Aurora.

But there's nothing terribly
mysterious about me.

Oh, yes there is.

Like how gentleman
with your appeal

has eluded the
altar for so long.

I was married once
a long time ago.

Do you care to
tell us about it?

Not especially.

[Light chuckle]

Disappointed?

Oh, just a mild twinge for
the last who couldn't hold you.

You, know, I can't
figure you out.

And I like it that way.

Hmm.

Scott, isn't this
a beautiful menu?

Yeah, it's just mouthwatering.

Uh, we'll have to two
dinner salads, please.

That's all.

We're in a bit of a hurry.

Sweetheart,
we're going to miss

out on these wonderful dishes.

There is only one dish
here that interests me.

Sweetheart, we have
plenty of time for that.

Can't I just have a
nice dinner, please?

Well, what the heck.

Whatever the lady wants.

I'll have some pat ,
and, uh, the, um,

shrimp cocktail, and,
uh, the onion soup,

and a little minestrone.

And then I'll have the
Caesar salad and a lobster.

[Music playing]

[Applause]

[Carnival music playing]

Wasn't he incredible?

[Cheering and applause]

And now, ladies and gentlemen,
the cummings carnival

is about to present the
most amazing and amusing act

you'll ever see.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Ryan & o'brien,

and their trained bear, brutus.

[Cheering and applause]

[Carnival music playing]

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Uh, uh, a bit of
sad news tonight.

My partner, Chester
o'brien, is a little bit

under the weather--

back, brutus-- and won't be
able to be part of the act.

Crowd: Aw.

Uh, so just a word of
warning, there is usually

two of us handling the bear.

So please, not too close.

I know he looks very
cute and very cuddly.

But he's really quite ferocious.

Growl.

[Growling]

Down, big boy.

Down, big boy.

My, what an appetite?

[Laugh]

All right, ladies and gentlemen.

And now the
light-footed brutus--

may I have your hand?

Thank you, sir.

Light-footed brutus
will now perform

feats of [inaudible],, that
famous international star

of ballet.

Brutus, over here, please.

Down, big guy.

[Growling]

I barely got it
around his waist.

[Laughter]

[Growling]

Very nice.
[Light flute music playing]

A cane, sir.

All right, brutus.

Arabesque.

[Cheering and applause]
Look at that.

Look at that.

Graceful, isn't he?

And now, finally, a
pirouette for the finale.

Brutus, pirouette.

[Applause]

Yes.

Isn't that something?

Thank you.

And a very nice bow, brutus.

[Music playing]

[Growling]
Easy.

Back.

Back.

Back.

Isn't the bear cute?

Mm.

I can't wait until you
dance for me in nothing

but a t-shirt and too too.

Mm?

Chip: And now brutus
and I are going

to play a little game of catch.

[Drum roll]

Brutus, here we go.

Ok.

All right.

Very nice.

[Cheering and applause]

Ah!

Back.
Back.

Back, brutus.
[Growling]

Yes.
I know.

I know all about it.

All right all right.
[Music playing]

Ladies and gentlemen,
how would you

like to see brutus ride a bike?

[Cheering and applause]

All right.

Excuse me.

Pardon me.

Back, brutus.
[Drum roll]

Don't worry about a thing.

He's already eaten.

Ok, brutus.

Up on the bike.

Up on the bike.

Brutus.

Bike.

Here we go.

[Applause]

Very good.

Go around.
[Carnival music playing]

Around.

[Cheering and applause]

Come on, folks.

Aren't they good?

Now, if you want to
see a real wild animal,

let's go back to our cabin.

You look so gorgeous.

You're driving me crazy.

Wendy, where are you going?

Please, I just want
to be left alone.

What did I say?

Aurora, tell me what's
going on between us--

I mean, deep down.

You mean on the level that
men can never really grasp?

I think that's what is.

Well, so far, I think there's
more to you than meets the eye.

Mm.

Perhaps it has something to
do with that deep, dark past

you've so carefully
avoided talking about.

[Chuckling]

What am I going
to do with you?

Nothing so far.

I'm off to the powder room.

[Laughs]

I enjoyed the show, Kyle.

Thank you.

You, uh, seem to be
enjoying Ms. Adams.

Well, she's incredible.

She's strong, vulnerable,
smart as a whip.

One minute, she's delightful.

And the next, she's a cobra.

Mm.

Sounds dangerous.

In more ways than one.

Merrill, tell me-- truth.

Mm hmm.

You think I'm too old for her?

Kyle, if, uh, you have
that certain connection--

if it's there, well, the years
shouldn't stand in the way.

Thank you.

Good luck, old timer.

[Music playing]

[Laughter]

Chip, you were
so brave tonight.

Ah.

Oh, come on--
working with that

ferocious bear all by yourself.

Well, I had no choice.

See, Chester turned
chicken at the last minute.

But don't tell him
that you know that.

Ok?

It might embarrass him.

You're such a
good friend to him.

You ought to see how I am
with my really good friends.

You double-crosser.

I'm down there with a bear.
And you're up here with a honey.

Huh?
Chip: Hey, I'm sorry, champ.

But when it comes to
moonlight romance,

you've got to separate
the men from the boys.

Oh, yeah.

Well, how about I separate
your nose from your face?

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

You stay away from my girl.

Who said she was your girl.

She happens to be my girl.

Well, why don't we leave
that up to dottie, huh?

All right.
Fine.

Now look what you've done.

What I've done?

I was doing fine until
you came out here.

That's it.

I'm fed up with you
double-dealing me with women.

Every time I find a girl,
you try to steal her.

I quit.

You find yourself another bear.

[Music playing]

[Knocking]

Oh, just a second.

Oh, Julie, what
am I going to do?

Wendy, what's problem?

Scott thinks I'm beautiful.

And he wants to
go to bed with me.

Gee, life's tough.

Oh, you don't understand.

I'm a nervous wreck.

And if I go to bed with
him I'll ruin everything.

[Phone ringing]

Excuse me.

Hello.

Now Scott, please.

Calm down.

Wendy's here with me.

Not the Wendy
he's looking for.

Wha-- no, no.

Scott, we were
just, uh, talking.

Just talking girl talk.

Listen, Scott, Wendy
is very nervous--

so nervous in fact he's
coming apart at the seams.

I think it would
be better if she

stayed here with me tonight.

And then we could
talk things through.

I'm sure she'll be over
the jitters by the morning.

And then you two
can start fresh.

Of course she loves you.

And I'll tell her
that you love her too.

How can he love me?

He doesn't even know me.

Goodnight, Scott.

I am phony to the end.

[Music playing]

You mean even--

mm.

[Soft music playing]

Hey, so this is where
you've run off to.

I had some things
to think about.

I've been doing
some thinking too.

You know, Aurora, all I
expected from this cruise

was a working vacation.

But it's turned out to
be a great deal more.

It's a bit more
than I expected too.

I think I better
say goodnight, Kyle.

And I know just
the way to say it.

Oh, Kyle please.

Leave me alone.

Why, I'm sorry.

I'm stupid.

I-- definitely not
the right thing to do.

And I shouldn't have rushed you.

I'll, um-- I'll
see you tomorrow.

Ms. Adams.

Are you all right?

I was-- until I got
to know your friend.

Well, uh, maybe I can help.

I think I know Kyle a little
bit better than you do.

Sad, but true, captain--

sad because Kyle
cummings is my father.

[Music playing]

Hey, buddy.

I brought some toast for you.

I'll butter it for you.

I even brought a Kn*fe.

Put it in my back
along with the other one.

Oh, come on, Chester.

Let's put aside our difference
and keep doing the act.

Ok?

For old time's sake?

No.

Then for money.

Let's keep doing it for money.

We still owe cummings
$ , bucks.

Yeah, I know--

thanks to my pal.

I am your pal, Chester.

You steal every woman
I'm interested in.

You lose all our money.

And you double cross me
every chance you can get.

What are friends for?

[Laughs]

What are friends for, eh?

Eh, all right.

All right.

Ok.

Ok.

I'll do the act
on one condition--

you put on the bear suit.

Come on, Chester.

I don't know how to do those
bear tricks like you do.

Chester: I don't
mean in the act.

Look, dottie likes
the hero type, right?

So you put on the bear
suit later on tonight.

I'll tell her the bear
is loose and mean.

You show up.

I'll overpower you and
put you back in your cage.

Then I'll be her hero.

Now, wait a minute, Chester--

Chester: You do it or I quit.

And then you can change the act
to Ryan & his empty bear suit.

[Sigh]

Good morning.

Ah, good morning, Kyle.

Merrill, what's
the best jewelry

store in puerto vallarta?

Well, it depends what
you're looking for.

I want to buy a
gift for Aurora.

I, uh, got a little
carried away last night.

I want to make it up to her.

Kyle, do you think
it's wise to buy

her a gift at this stage?

Hey, what's happening?

Last night, you told
me to go for it.

Now you're telling me
to put on the brakes.

Well, I just don't
want to see you get hurt.

No one is going to get hurt.

You don't understand my
relationship with Aurora.

Just make sure you do.

[Soft music playing]

Hey, there he is.

Now remember Scott married
you for what you are,

not what you look like.

But you look adorable.

He didn't marry adorable.

He married a sex pot.

Well, he's a lucky man.

He's getting both.

Man (on pa): Attention,
this is the last call

for the breakfast buffet.

Hey, Julie I have been
worried sick about Wendy.

Where is she?

Well, I'm sure she's
up here someplace.

Thanks.

I'll have a look around for her.

Excuse me, miss.

[Soft music playing]

My own husband didn't
even recognize me.

Wendy.

[Music playing]

Woman (on pa): Buenos dias.

And welcome to
beautiful acapulco.

The temperature is a
glorious degrees.

So those of you going
ashore should have

a perfect day for sightseeing.

Enjoy your day.

Yes?

Who is it?

Captain stubing, Ms. Adams.

Yes.

Please come in.

Thank you.

I'm, uh-- I'm concerned
about you and your father.

Oh, don't be.

He never was.

Ms. Adams, your
father happens--

captain, my father
ran out on my mother

when I was six-months old.

I grew up believing he was dead.

My mother did her best.

But I grew up a very sad, very
lonely little girl, captain.

I always wondered what
I had done wrong to make

god take my father away.

Then later, when I found out the
truth, all I could think about

was the day that I'd find him--

and how I'd make him pay.

Then you knew who he
was when you came aboard?

Yes.

And he's going to know
who I am before I leave.

[Soft music playing]

Wendy.

Wendy, is that you?

I'm afraid so.

Um, but you--

Wendy, what happened to you?

I think the Wendy that you're
looking for is over here.

Does this look familiar?

Eyelashes.

Long, beautiful red fingernails.

And the rest is a
little bit embarrassing.

Well, I guess that
takes care of the Wendy

you've been looking for.

Wendy, I think
we have to talk.

Look, Scott, I don't think
there's anything to talk about.

I deceived you.

And to tell you the truth,
I don't know how I got

away with it as long as I did.

[Soft music playing]

So I'm letting you off the hook.

I'm spending the rest of
the cruise in Julie's cabin.

And when we get back
home, we'll just

get an annulment or something.

Wendy.

I'm sorry, Scott.

You'll never know
how sorry I am.

Bye bye.

[Music playing]

Chester, this is ridiculous.

I don't know how
to act like a bear.

And you sure know how
to act like a weasel.

Besides, if you'd
stayed away from dottie,

you wouldn't be
in this position.

Well, it doesn't thrill me
helping you make out with her.

Law of the jungle, pal.

You bear.

Me hero.
- Yeah.

Well, I'll do it.

But I won't like it.

No, you'll do it.

Because if you don't,
I'll quit the act.

And then you'll be back to
your previous occupation--

unemployed.

See you in minutes.

[Whistling]

Hey.

This is all your fault.
If I hadn't bought you,

Chester wouldn't
have to do the act

and I wouldn't have to wear
this ridiculous bear suit.

When I'm done with this, I'll
make an overcoat out of you.

[Growling]

[Music playing]

Kyle: Hi.

I just got your note.

I hope you haven't
been waiting too long.

Oh, a bit longer
than you can imagine.

Uh, you're still not upset
about last night, are you?

No, Kyle.

Ah.

I was hoping you wouldn't be.

Now, I went into port today,
and I saw something that just

screamed out to me, Aurora.

Oh.

Eh, I really blew it
last night, didn't I?

No.

Not last night.

You blew it a long time ago.

What are you talking about?

Last night, you said
you had been married once.

Mm hmm.

Aurora: But that's all you
said about your family.

Well, i--

Aurora: Tell me, how
can a father forget

to mention he has a child?

[Soft music playing]

How did you know
I had a child?

A daughter, I believe.

Are you a friend of hers?

About the best
friend she's got.

Well-- well, tell me.

How do I get in touch with her?

Where is she?

I believe she's taking a
cruise on the pacific Princess.

Oh, no.

Oh, yes, daddy.

[Music playing]

[Screaming]

The bear is loose!

[Interposing voices]

It's me.

Hey, the talking
bear is loose!

It's me.

It's chip.

What are you
doing in that suit?

Well, it's for Chester.

See, I'm supposed
to be the real bear

on the loose and scare dottie.

Then Chester subdues me.

And he's a hero in her eyes.

Are you out of your mind?

Not a chance.

You'll scare the
passengers to death.

I'm practically in my grave
just bumping into you.

Well, Chester is expecting me.

Well, tell him to
cancel the reservation.

If he wants an explanation,
he can come and see me.

There is no way in the
world I'm going to let

you up on deck in that suit.

Ow.

[Music playing]

[Carnival music playing]

[Inaudible].

How could she have
deceived me like that?

Ah, I don't blame
you for being upset.

I should have known that she
was just too good to be true.

Well, look on the bright side.

There are still a lot of very
voluptuous-looking ladies

over there.

I know.

But how many of them are
as warm as Wendy, or smart.

I'm telling you, Isaac,
she's really smart.

And what a sense
of humor she has.

No matter how down
I get, she can

always, always make me laugh.

We both want the same things--

kids and a house in
the country some day.

See, you do realize
what you just did?

Out of everything that
you've said about her,

you didn't once
mention her looks.

I didn't, did I?

No, you didn't.

And you know what else?

You sound like a man who
is very much in love.

You're right.

I am.

Thank you, Isaac.

Thank you very much.

Sure.

[Grunts]

[Ominous music playing]

Chip: Holy chimoly.

The bear escaped.

[Music playing]

Aurora, I have to talk to you.

Excuse me.

I have a plane to catch.

I'm going back to
London tonight.

Aurora, please.

A-- as a photographer,
you know how

a picture can change
when-- when you look

at it from a different angle.

Well, I can see this picture
from your angle, Aurora.

Please, see it from mine.

[Sigh]

Go ahead.

[Soft music playing]

Um, when you were born, i--

I was only , and
not a very mature .

All of a sudden, i--

I had this wife and
child to support.

And i-- I got scared.

I ran.

I enlisted--
anything to get away.

By the time I came to
my senses and went back,

my wife had taken the child--

you-- and gone to england to
be with your grandparents.

I wrote to her.

But all my letters
came back undelivered.

So you just gave up?

No, I went to england.

But by the time I got
there, you had moved away.

I tried tracing you.

But it was hopeless.

[Inaudible] Come here and make
a plead for your own daughter.

Aurora, I am so ashamed.

It's not all your
fault. I shouldn't have

dropped it on you like that.

No, you did it the
way you had to do it.

Please, believe me.

I understand.

I just want you to know
that no matter what happens,

I am proud of who my
baby girl grew up to be.

Thanks.

When you smile, you--

you have your mother's eyes.

She always said
that I had your eyes.

[Laughs]

You know, I named
you Katherine.

I like Aurora.

Yeah.

So do I.

It means, the dawn--

new beginnings.

Maybe that's what it
could mean for us.

I'd like it to.

Well, uh, then maybe I
could have a hug, daddy?

Mm hmm.

[Music soars]

Woman (on pa): As we
say goodbye to acapulco,

we set a leisurely course for
our home port of Los Angeles.

Enjoy your evening.

I'm really nuts
about you, dottie.

You stick with me,
I'll take care of you

and protect you all your life.

You're really
very sweet, Chester.

[Growling]

Oh!
Oh, my god.

The bear is loose.

[Music playing]

I'll handle this, dottie.

Good roar, baby.

Down, brutus.

I said, down, brutus.

[Growling]

Chip: Chester!

Chester, the bear is loose.

The real bear is loose, Chester.

Not now, chip.

Chip?

[Growling]

Oh, my god.

[Soft music playing]

- Brutus, hi.
- What?

No, no, no, no.
Stay away from him.

Don't go near him.
He's a k*ller.

Dottie: Good boy.

Now, you be real good.

And you come with dottie.

Ok?

Here we go.

Dottie is taking
you to your cage.

Good boy.

Good boy.

[Music playing]

[Soft music playing]

Scott: Wendy.

Hi.

Can we talk?

No, scratch that.

Can you forgive me?

Forgive you?

I never should have let
you leave the room today.

I've been selfish, and
shallow, and stupid.

Oh, Scott.

You didn't do anything.

It was all my fault. I should
have told you a long time ago

about the real me.

But I was just afraid to.

Why, baby?

Now, don't you know
that I love you?

I guess I wasn't sure.

Scott, when I was growing
up, guys didn't go for girls

that looked like I did.

They went for girls
who looked sexy.

And as soon as I figured
out how to look like that,

I never had the confidence
to just look like me again.

Can you understand that?

Yeah.

Well, I guess a lot of
boys are pretty dumb.

But this boy has got some
growing up to do right now.

I couldn't ask
for a better wife.

I hope you still want
me to be your husband.

You bet I do.

[Music soars]

Hold it.

What?

What do you say we go
down to the cabin and--

and?

--Order dinner in?

Yeah?

Yeah.

[Music playing]

Hey.

Ho ho!

Up.

[Applause]

[Yelling]

Hey, I'm sorry if we
caused you any confusion

on the trip, guys.

Well, it turned out ok.

We sure enjoyed your act.

Yeah, you looked adorable
in your bear suit and too too.

Uh, yeah.

Thanks.
Sorry about the [inaudible].

Oh, that's ok.

Next time, I'll just pet you
instead of the real bear.

[Chuckles]

Chip and Chester are going
to use this bear on their act

too and have asked me to
join the act because I'm then

only one who can handle him.

And I'm the only one who
can handle you, dottie.

Forget him.

He'll only break your heart.

I'm your guy.

The three of them
are crazy about me.

And I love it.

I love you.

I love you more.

[Growling]

Goodbye.

Together: Goodbye

oh, I want to thank
you both for everything.

We owe you a lot.

It was our pleasure.

Scott, you know
you're something else--

you come on board with one
beautiful woman, you leave

with one even more beautiful.

Well, maybe Minerva
the magnificent here

can find the secret in my palm.

Oh, yes.

Well, I see you have
a very strong love line.

Let's hurry home so
I can read the rest.

Ooh.

Bye.

Bye bye.

Bye.

Kyle, I can't tell you how
great it was seeing you again.

Your carnival was a big hit.

Thanks, merrill--
for everything.

I hope we can do
this again sometime.

Oh, me too so that my
father can have another chance

at winning me a prize.

[Laughter]

Vicki, no dad ever
won a better prize

than I did this trip.

And when it comes to prizes,
folks, I hit the jackpot.

[Chuckling]

- Bye.
- Bye bye.

Bye bye.

Bye.

You're my prize.

Oh.
