A HUNDRED AND FIF--
NO, JANE, THAT'S--
I'M GONNA ASK DADDY
TO GIVE YOU A RAISE.
BUT, JANE, I HAVEN'T EVEN

Sylvia Rutledge: JANE,
HONEY YOUR DIET.
MOTHER!
JANE, I'M NOT THE ONE
WHO INSISTED ON BUYING A
TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED DOLLAR
WEDDING DRESS TWO SIZES TOO
SMALL TO GIVE MYSELF A GOAL.
BUT THE WEDDING'S
THREE MONTHS AWAY.
JANE!
THERE'S PLENTY OF TIME.
[ ALAN SIGHS ]

GIVING ME THIS WONDERFUL
GRADUATION PARTY, SIR.
QUITE ALL RIGHT, ALAN,
BUT AFTER SEPTEMBER,
NO MORE OF THIS SIR BUSINESS.
YOU MAY CALL ME MR. RUTLEDGE.
[ INDISTINCT ].
DADDY... THERE'S SOMETHING
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT.
NOW, I'M NOT SURE THAT ALAN'S
STARTING SALARY IS REALISTIC.
I MEAN, JUST TO GET BY,
THE MINIMUM AMOUNT TO BUY A--
PRINCESS, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT MY STARTING SALARY WAS?
OH, DADDY, I--
EXCUSE ME, SIR,
BUT IF I COULD
JUST SAY ONE THING.
I'M SURE WE'LL BE ABLE
TO GET BY JUST FINE ON
WHAT YOU'VE OFFERED ME
TO START WITH.
HON, PLEASE,
NOW LET ME HANDLE THIS.
BUT, JANE,
I WANT YOUR FATHER--
I'M THIRSTY.
I THINK I'LL HAVE A REFILL

WELL... SURE.

[ MUSIC ]
UH, WELL, IT WAS VERY
NICE OF YOU TO PICK ME UP A THE AIRPORT, MR. REMINGTON.
Richard Remington: OH,
MY PLEASURE, ALAN.
AFTER ALL, YOUR AUNT AND I
WERE GOOD FRIENDS.
REMARKABLE WOMAN, CRAZY,
UNORTHODOX, AND NOT THE
WORLD'S BEST BUSINESS WOMAN,
BUT, OH, HOW SHE
LOVED THAT SHOP.
IS THIS YOUR FIRST TIME
IN CALIFORNIA?
YES, IT IS.
BUT, I'M AFRAID I CAN
ONLY STAY A FEW DAYS.
I'M STARTING A
NEW JOB NEXT WEEK.
[ LADIES LAUGHING ]
OOH, WHAT A PLACE TO LIVE.
IF I WERE ONLY YOUNG
AND SINGLE, LIKE YOU.
I'M ENGAGED.
OH!
[ MUSIC ]
EH, THIS WAS YOUR AUNT'S HOME.
YEAH, IDA WAS RATHER EXTRAVAGAN WITH HER PURCHASES.
YEAH, I'M AFRAID SHE HAD A
LITTLE TROUBLE KEEPING UP
WITH HER PAYMENTS.
WOW!
[ LAUGHING ]
WELL, ALAN, I THINK
I SHOULD TELL YOU NOW.
FIFTY ONE PERCENT OF
EVERYTHING YOUR AUNT OWNED
NOW BELONGS TO YOU.
YOU'RE KIDDING ME?
NO-- SHE FELT THAT WITH
YOUR BUSINESS EDUCATION,
THAT YOU COULD BE TRUSTED
WITH THE CONTROLLING INTERES IN HER ESTATE.
[ LAUGHING ]
SO WHO OWNS THE OTHER
FORTY NINE PERCENT?
Todd Finston: HOW'S IT GOING?
TODD?
HEY, LITTLE BROTHER.
ISN'T THIS A KICK?
[ LAUGHING ]
UHH.
OH, HI, COUNSELOR.
DO YOU WANT A BREW?
UH, PLEASE, DON'T GET UP.
I'D RATHER REMEMBER YOU
JUST AS YOU ARE.
ALAN, YOU AND YOUR, UH, BROTHER
ARE NOW THE SOLE OWNERS
OF YOUR AUNT'S ENTIRE ESTATE.
UH, WHY DON'T YOU GET SETTLED
IN, AND I'LL COME BACK IN A
COUPLE OF HOURS AND SHOW YOU
THE REST OF HER HOLDINGS.
THANK YOU.

OH, COME ON, MAN--
I'LL HELP YOU UNPACK.
I GOT IN YESTERDAY.
SO YOU STILL MAJORING
IN ACCOUNTING?
UH, TODD, I GRADUATED
A FEW DAYS AGO.
OH, I WAS GOING
TO SEND YOU A CARD.
AUNT IDA'S BEDROOM.
REMEMBER THE SUMMER SHE STAYED
WITH US, WHEN MOM AND DAD
WERE ON VACATION.
YEAH, TODD, I REMEMBER IT.
IT TOOK ME FOUR YEARS OF
PSYCHOTHERAPY TO GET OVER IT.
THAT'S PROBABLY WHY SHE
LEFT EVERYTHING TO US.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HI THE BEACH.
SAME OLD TODD.
SAME OLD ALAN.
SO TELL ME, TODD, WHA HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO LATELY?
WELL, I WAS UP
IN SEATTLE FOR A WHILE.
I FINALLY FOUND A BACKER FOR
MY SOLAR POWERED HOTDOG STANDS.
THEN IT RAINED FOR
SIXTY DAYS IN A ROW.
THE GUY BACKED OUT,
SO I'VE JUST BEEN TRAVELING
AROUND, STAYING WITH FRIENDS.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
TODD, I HAVE TAKEN THE MOS IMPORTANT STEP OF MY LIFE.
[ LAUGHING ]
YOU FINALLY GOT UP THE NERVE
TO ASK A GIRL OUT ON A DATE.
YEAH, AND I'M
GETTING MARRIED TO HER.
[ LAUGHING ]
YOU'RE KIDDING?
NO, REALLY, I'M ENGAGED.
HER NAME IS JANE.
HERE, LOOK I-I HAVE
A PICTURE OF HER.
UH, IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST.
WE MET ON A BLIND DATE,
AND THE NEXT THING YOU
KNOW, I'M MEETING HER PARENTS.
YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE
JANE SAYS THOUGH,
"WHEN YOU'RE SURE, WHY WAIT?"
BUT, ALAN, IT'S--
AND, TODD, I'D REALLY
BE HONORED, IF YOU'D
BE MY BEST MAN.
YOU REALLY LOVE HER.

GOOD-BYE, EVERYONE.
TODD, WOULD YOU MIND--

OH, SURE.
WE HAVE TO MEASURE THE STORE.
[ MUSIC ]
HI.
AAH!
WHAT A LIFE!
YOU AND ME, LIVING HERE
RUNNING A BIKINI SHOP.
IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.
OF COURSE, YOU AND JANE
CAN HAVE AUNT IDA'S BEDROOM.
I'LL GIVE YOU GUYS YOUR PRIVACY.
HERE, TODD, TAKE A LOOK
AT THIS FIGURE.
WELL, WHAT ABOUT IT?
WELL, BASED ON SOME
BALLPARK ESTIMATIONS,
THIS IS HOW MUCH YOU AND I
WILL DIVIDE WHEN WE SELL
THE BIKINI STORE AND THE HOUSE.
SELL THEM, ARE YOU NUTS?
IT'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH
MORE FUN STAYING RIGHT HERE.
FUN?
I'M A COLLEGE GRADUATE
NOW, TODD.
I HAVE MY FUTURE ALL PLANNED.
I HAD PLENTY OF FUN IN COLLEGE.
I'LL BET.
LOOK, ANYWAY,
AUNT IDA LEFT ME THE
CONTROLLING INTEREST, TODD.
SHE KNEW SHE COULD TRUST ME
TO DO WHAT WAS BEST FOR US.
BEST FOR YOU, YOU MEAN.
AS FOR ME, IT WAS ORDAIN
THAT I LIVE OUT THE RES OF MY DAYS, RIGHT HERE.
IT'S MY DESTINY.
WELL, YOU CAN LIVE OU YOUR DESTINY FOR ABOUT A WEEK,
TODD, 'CAUSE THAT'S HOW LONG
IT'S GONNA TAKE ME TO GE EVERYTHING TAKEN CARE OF.
IT'S, UH, IT'S
ALMOST OPENING TIME.
DON'T YOU, GIRLS,
THINK YOU SHOULD BE
GETTING DRESSED FOR WORK?
THEY ARE DRESSED
FOR WORK, ALAN.
SHOW HIM, GIRLS.
[ LADIES LAUGHING ]
OH, TODD.
ALAN, YOU CAN'T EXPECT TO
SELL THE MERCHANDISE, UNLESS
THE CUSTOMER KNOWS WHAT I LOOKS LIKE WHEN IT'S ON.
I DON'T HAVE TIME
TO ARGUE WITH YOU, TODD.
I HAVE TO GO OVER
AUNT IDA'S BOOKS.
ALL FINISHED, YOUNG MAN.
GOT TO HAND IT TO YOU.
IT'S A VERY CLEVER IDEA OF
YOURS, INSTALLING A TWO-WAY
MIRROR FOR SECURITY.
TOO MUCH SHOP LIFTING
AMONG KIDS THESE DAYS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU CAN'T BE TOO CAREFUL.
[ MUSIC ]
SO KEEP IT RIGHT HERE
ON K-T-N-E SANTA MONICA.
[ MUSIC ]
HELLO-- WELCOME TO
IDA'S BIKINI SHOP.
YESIREE, THE OLD SIZE FIVE RACK.
UH, YEAH, YOU CERTAINLY
ARE A SIZE FIVE.
THAT'S SOME MIGHTY FINE
ARTICLE OF SWIMWEAR
YOU'VE CHOSEN THERE.
HOWEVER, I THINK YOU MIGH FIND SOME OF OUR OTHER SUITS
TO BE EQUALLY WELL CRAFTED.
YUP, YUP, HERE IT IS.
THE GOOD OLD DRESSING ROOM.
OH, I HOPE YOU'LL
FIND IT COMFORTABLE.
UH, THIS NEW MIRROR,
WE RECENTLY HAD INSTALLED,
IS FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE.
UH, IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME,
I'LL, UH, I'LL JUST--
I'LL BE, UH, I'LL BE GOING.
[ LAUGHING ]
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, MAN.
THIS IS GOING TO BE SO GREAT.
I'M JUST GLAD THAT AUNT IDA
IS NOT AROUND TO SEE THIS.
OH, OH.
ALAN, IF I EVER GET MARRIED,
IT'S GONNA BE TO A SIZE FIVE.
TODD, YOU SHOULD BE
ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
I AM-- I'M ASHAMED.
I'M ASHAMED-- SURE.
MAY I HELP
YOU FIND SOMETHING?
I NEED A NEW BATHING SUIT.
HOW ABOUT THIS?
YOU MUST BE CRAZY.
HONEY, I WANT TO
GET SUN TANNED.
GET OUT OF MY WAY.
OH, MY GOD!
I'M GOING OUT THERE,
AND SEE IF SHE NEEDS ANY HELP.
AAAH!
IN CASE YOU'RE INTERESTED, TODD,
I FINISHED GOING OVER AUNT IDA'S
FINANCIAL RECORDS LAST NIGHT.
YEAH.
WHOO.
OH.
SEEMS THE BIKINI SHOP'S
BEEN DOING A DECENT VINE
OF BUSINESS, BUT IT'S BEEN
LOSING MONEY ALL THESE YEARS.
WHY IS THAT?
AUNT IDA SPENT MUCH MORE
ON HER EXTRAVAGANT PROMOTIONS
AND HER PARTIES THAN
SHE TOOK IN FROM SALES.
SHE HAD A LOT OF FUN,
BUT SHE DIDN'T KNOW
HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS.
CAN I BORROW YOUR HAIR DRYER?
DEFINITELY.
SO, ANYWAY, SHE PUT ALL
HER DIVORCE SETTLEMENT MONEY
INTO THE STORE.
WHEN THAT RAN OUT, SHE
RE-MORTGAGED THE HOUSE
TO THE HILL, JUST TO
KEEP THE BUSINESS GOING.
WELL, WHAT CAN WE DO?
WHAT IT MEANS, TODD,
IS THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO WORK AWFULLY HARD
TO SELL THE STORE.
YOU SEE, IT'S GOTTA BE TURNED
INTO A PROFIT MAKING BUSINESS
IN ORDER TO ATTRACT A BUYER.
NOW I FIGURE, IT'LL TAKE
A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO GE EVERYTHING TAKEN CARE OF.
IN THE MEANTIME,
WE CAN JUST LIVE HERE.
NOW YOU, TODD, CAN EITHER
HELP ME OUT OR NOT.
IT'S UP TO YOU.
NO OFFENSE, ALAN,
BUT I THINK LIVING WITH YOU
IS GONNA DRIVE ME CRAZY.
[ SIGHS ]
I SAID NO OFFENSE.
[ MUSIC ]
HI, RONNIE.
HI, RONNIE.
HI.
HOW WAS YOUR COOKING CLASS?
NOT SO GOOD.
YEAH, THE TEACHER
GAVE US A "D" ON OUR PROJECT,
JUST BECAUSE WE WERE
TRYING TO BE CREATIVE.
WHAT DID YOU MAKE?
PINEAPPLE INSIDE OUT CAKE.
YOU WANT TO TASTE?
UM, THAT LOOKS REALLY
DELICIOUS, BUT I JUST ATE.
MAYBE ALAN AND TODD
WOULD LIKE SOME.
UH, I BET TODD WILL.
[ LAUGHING ]
I THINK HE'S REAL CUTE.
YEAH, BUT ALAN'S
KIND OF A NERD.
YOU KNOW, HE'S SO
MR. BUSINESS MAN.
I THINK HE'S REALLY NICE.
CAN'T HELP IT IF HE'S SMART.
YEAH, WELL, IF HE'S SO SMART,
THEN HOW COME HE'S
GETTING MARRIED SO YOUNG?
GOD, I CAN'T IMAGINE
BEING MARRIED AT OUR AGE.
YEAH.
HE'S ENGAGED?
YEAH, YOU DIDN'T KNOW?
NO, I DIDN'T.
HEY, DOESN'T HE
NEED TO SIGN THIS?
NO, LET'S SEE.
THEY'RE NOT READY YET.
OH, YEAH.
SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW?
YEAH.
BUT, JANE I DON'T HAVE
A FAVORITE STYLE OF CUMBERBUND.
LOOK-- THE WEDDING
ISN'T UNTIL SEPTEMBER.
COULDN'T YOU JUST PICK ONE OU FOR ME, AND I'LL LOOK AT I WHEN I GET BACK?
OH, ALL RIGHT.
BUT I WISH YOU COULD
COME HOME SOONER.
DADDY SAYS HIS COMPANY HAS
CONNECTIONS IN CALIFORNIA,
AND IF YOU WANT, HE CAN
HELP YOU SELL THE STORE.
JANE, I'D REALLY LIKE
TO DO THIS ON MY OWN.
UH, BUT I'LL BE HOME
AS SOON AS I CAN.
YOU BETTER BE.
TALK TO YOU TOMORROW?
SURE.
KISSY, KISSY, KISS.
UM, KISSY, KISSY, KISS.
ALAN, YOU ARE IN LUCK, MAN.
I'VE BEEN DOING
SOME BRAINSTORMING.
I'VE COME UP WITH
SOME GREAT NEW IDEAS
FOR IMPROVING BUSINESS.
WELL, I'M REALLY GLAD YOU
WANNA HELP, TODD, BUT I'VE
COME UP WITH MY OWN IDEAS.
LESS EXPENSIVE MERCHANDISE,
NO FREE GIFT WRAPPING,
LONGER HOURS?
ALAN, DIDN'T THEY TEACH YOU
ANYTHING ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS
IN COLLEGE?
PEOPLE WANNA HAVE FUN.
THIS WOMAN'S NAME IS
BERTA HILGARD, AND I THINK
WE STAND A GOOD CHANCE
AT SELLING HER THE STORE.
UH, SHE'S HAD NO EXPERIENCE
IN RETAIL, BUT SHE'S ALWAYS
DREAMED OF OWNING A SHOP
ON THE BOARDWALK.
HUH, LET'S HOPE IT WORKS OUT.
THANKS A LOT FOR
YOUR HELP, MR. REMINGTON.
THANK YOU-- IT'S BEEN
A PLEASURE SERVING YOU.
THANKS.
WELL, LOOK WHO'S DRESSED
LIKE A GROWN-UP TODAY.

IT'S INTERESTING.
LISTEN, I REALLY THINK WE
WANNA EXAMINE THE BOOKS NOW.
BOOKS, SOL, BOOKS.
I DON'T THINK THAT'S NECESSARY.
THEY'RE DOING EXCELLEN BUSINESS HERE.
YO!
I GOT A DELIVERY HERE FROM
DOUBLE EXPOSURE SWIMWEAR.
UH, I'LL TAKE THAT.
GREAT.
WHEW.
[ LAUGHING ]
HEY, UH...
YES?
I NEED A CHECK.
IT'S A COD.
OH.

[ LAUGHING ]
[ LAUGHING ]
HOW ARE YOU?
[ LAUGHING ]
THANKS A LOT.
OH, SURE.
[ LAUGHING ]
SOL, MAYBE WE BETTER
LOOK AT THE BOOKS.
DON'T TELL ME
THOSE WERE BOOKS.
BECAUSE THERE WERE NO BOOKS.
IT WAS A DISASTER.
I JUST WANTED TO GE INTO THE CLOTHING BUSINESS,
LIKE MY BEST FRIEND, SISSY.
COME ON!
THESE PEOPLE SHOULD
PRAY FOR A FIRE.
OH, SOL!
THE WORST THING I'VE

HEY, LET'S DO BUSINESS.
[ WAVES CRASHING ]
UH, HEY, ALAN.
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO MAKE
FIVE HUNDRED EXTRA BUCKS,
THIS MONTH, THAT WE CAN PU BACK INTO THE BUSINESS?
SURE, TODD, HOW?
KATHY AND CINDY AND RONNIE
WERE TELLING ME HOW
THEIR RENT JUST WENT UP.
SO I THOUGHT, SINCE WE HAD
SO MUCH EXTRA ROOM,
WE COULD JUST--
THEY COULD MOVE IN.
WAIT A MINUTE, TODD.
THERE IS NO WAY THEY
CAN MOVE IN HERE.
NOW, FIRST OF ALL,
IT'S HARD ENOUGH JUS YOU AND I GETTING ALONG.
SECONDLY, WELL, HOW DO YOU THINK
JANE WOULD LIKE IT IF SHE KNEW
I WAS LIVING WITH THREE GIRLS.
YEAH, I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN.
OKAY.
THERE'S JUS ONE PROBLEM, THOUGH.
WHAT'S THAT, TODD?
[ DOORBELL RINGING ]
I ALREADY ASKED THEM.
[ LAUGHING ]
ALL RIGHT!

IT'S GONNA BE SO MUCH FUN.
RONNIE WILL BE HERE

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, ALAN?
WELL-WELL-WELL, JUST THIS.
WE COULD GET MARRIED,
AND THEN LIVE OUT HERE.
I REALLY ENJOY RUNNING
MY OWN STORE, AND YOU COULD

IT MAY NOT BE A WHOLE LO OF MONEY AT FIRST,
BUT AFTER A WHILE--
I CANT BELIEVE
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
I'VE WORKED SO HARD TO MAKE
THESE PLANS FOR US, AND NOW
YOU WANNA THROW IT ALL AWAY
ON THE BIKINI STORE.
I THINK YOU CARE MORE ABOU THOSE SHOW OFF SALES GIRLS THAN

I'VE DONE EVERYTHING
I CAN TO MAKE YOU HAPPY.
I KNOW THAT.
I-I-I KNOW, JANE.
PROMISE ME YOU'LL SELL

[ MUSIC ]
SO, MR. GREENE, HAVE YOU

WELL, THEN I WAN TO BUY IT BACK.
ALAN FINSTON, JUST WHAT--
SHUT UP, JANE!
MR. GREENE, HOW 'BOUT IT?
MR. FINSTON, I'M A
REASONABLE MAN AND NO WITHOUT SENTIMENT.
THERE IS ANOTHER LOCATION
AVAILABLE UP THE STREE WHICH MAY SUIT OUR NEEDS.
YOU KNOW, I THINK I'M GONNA
LET YOU BUY YOUR STORE BACK.
YOU ARE?
YES, AND I ESTIMATE
THE PLACE IS WORTH $66,000.
BUT THAT'S $6,000 MORE
THAN YOU PAID FOR IT.
PRECISELY, AND I'LL EXPEC THE 6,000 IN CASH TWO WEEKS FROM
TODAY, OR THERE'S NO SALE.
GOOD DAY.
WOW, ALAN, YOU WERE GREAT.
BUT WE CAN'T POSSIBLY
RAISE $6,000 IN TWO WEEKS.
YES, WE CAN.
WE'LL FIND A WAY.
ALAN FINSTON,
WHAT'S COME OVER YOU?
IF YOU INTEND TO GO
THROUGH WITH THIS IDIOCY,
YOU AND I ARE THROUGH.
JANE... YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU AND I ARE THROUGH.
[ LAUGHING ]

I DON'T KNOW.
I GUESS I JUST HATE AQUA.
HUH?

THE HONOLULU AIRPOR WAS SNOWED IN.
LOOK, TODD.
I KNOW I HAVEN'T GIVEN YOU
MUCH OF A CHANCE SINCE I GO OUT HERE, BUT IF YOU JUS GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE,
I'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN
ACCOMPLISH WHEN WE JOIN FORCES.
OKAY?
SURE, YOU GOT IT.
AND I JUST KNOW
IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF
THAT STUPID BIKINI STORE.
SON OF A BITCH-- YOU KNOW
WHAT I'VE SPENT ALREADY
ON THE CATERING ALONE?
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING
YOU CAN DO, DEAR?
YOU HAVE CONNECTIONS
IN CALIFORNIA.
YEAH.
UNFORTUNATELY, PROMOTIONS
COST MONEY.
WE BARELY MADE A PROFI ON THAT SUNTAN CONTEST.
DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY
BIKINIS WE'D HAVE TO SELL
TO MAKE $6,000?
I'LL GO GET THE COFFEE.
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH
BIKINIS IN STOCK TO BRING
IN THAT KIND OF MONEY.
WE COULD ORDER MORE?
NO, I'M AFRAID NOT.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY CREDIT,
AND WE DON'T HAVE THE CASH.
THE HOUSE?
AUNT IDA WORKED I TO THE HILL, JUST TO KEEP
THE BUSINESS GOING.
UH, MR. REMINGTON?
HE STOPPED RETURNING
MY CALLS.
HEY-HEY.
WHAT?
ALL WE NEED IS A
FANTASTIC NEW LINE OF BIKINIS
THAT EVERYBODY WILL WANNA BUY,
THAT WON'T COST US A DIME.
HEY, IF ONLY
ONE OF US KNEW HOW TO--
RONNIE!
WHAT?!
YOU ARE GONNA DESIGN
OUR NEW LINE OF BIKINIS.
BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN.
WELL, RONNIE, I THINK
IT'S TIME YOU FOUND OUT.
BUT YOU MUST FIND IT.
ONE OF YOUR SALES GIRLS
SAID SHE PUT IT AWAY FOR ME.
I KNOW, I'M LOOKING.
HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED
TO TIE THIS?
I'M NOT SURE.
WAIT FOR ONE MINUTE WHILE I--
DON'T YOU HAVE
ANY TOPS WITH DART?
DARTS?
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
WHERE ARE YOUR
SALES GIRLS, ANYWAY?
NO, IT'S STILL NOT RIGHT.
IT'S OKAY, RONNIE.
YOU'LL THINK OF SOMETHING.
YEAH, WE STILL HAVE TIME.
[ KNOCKING ON DOOR ]

HOW'D IT GO IN HERE?
WELL, YOU CAN'T RUSH
THESE THINGS, YOU KNOW.

CAN'T EVEN STAND STILL.
THANKS, BUT IT'S MY FAULT.
I HAVEN'T COME UP WITH A THING.
WAIT TILL YOU GUYS SEE THIS.
WE'RE ALL SET.
THIS HOSPITAL SUPPLY HOUSE
IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.
I GOT ALL THIS STUFF...
FOR ALMOST NOTHING.
SURGICAL GOWNS,
DOZENS OF THEM.
THERE MUST BE HUNDREDS OF
YARDS OF MATERIAL IN HERE.
WE CAN USE IT TO
MAKE THE BIKINIS.
LOOK AT THIS-- SURGICAL THREAD,
NEEDLES, SCISSORS--
EVERYTHING WE NEED.
WELL, I HAD TO SPEND
THE REST OF OUR MONEY,
BUT FROM NOW ON, THESE BIKINIS
ARE GONNA BE 100% PROFIT.
WHAT'S WITH HIM?
TODD, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WITH ALL THIS GREEN STUFF?

BESIDES, IT IS A GOOD
EXCUSE TO HAVE A PARTY.
JUST KIDDING.
AND NOW THEY'RE MAKING
THEIR OWN BIKINIS IN THE STORE,
SO THEY CAN RAISE $6,000.
I HAVE A CLIENT OUT HERE

A HUNDRED AND FIF--

QUITE ALL RIGHT, ALAN,
BUT AFTER SEPTEMBER,

YOU MAY CALL ME MR. RUTLEDGE.
[ INDISTINCT ].
DADDY... THERE'S SOMETHING
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT.
NOW, I'M NOT SURE THAT ALAN'S
STARTING SALARY IS REALISTIC.
I MEAN, JUST TO GET BY,
THE MINIMUM AMOUNT TO BUY A--
PRINCESS, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT MY STARTING SALARY WAS?
OH, DADDY, I--
EXCUSE ME, SIR,
BUT IF I COULD
JUST SAY ONE THING.
I'M SURE WE'LL BE ABLE
TO GET BY JUST FINE ON

BUT, JANE,

AFTER ALL, YOUR AUNT AND I
WERE GOOD FRIENDS.
REMARKABLE WOMAN, CRAZY,
UNORTHODOX, AND NOT THE
WORLD'S BEST BUSINESS WOMAN,
BUT, OH, HOW SHE
LOVED THAT SHOP.
IS THIS YOUR FIRST TIME
IN CALIFORNIA?
YES, IT IS.
BUT, I'M AFRAID I CAN

I'M ENGAGED.
OH!
[ MUSIC ]

YEAH, I'M AFRAID SHE HAD A
LITTLE TROUBLE KEEPING UP
WITH HER PAYMENTS.
WOW!
[ LAUGHING ]
WELL, ALAN, I THINK
I SHOULD TELL YOU NOW.
FIFTY ONE PERCENT OF
EVERYTHING YOUR AUNT OWNED
NOW BELONGS TO YOU.
YOU'RE KIDDING ME?
NO-- SHE FELT THAT WITH
YOUR BUSINESS EDUCATION,
THAT YOU COULD BE TRUSTED
WITH THE CONTROLLING INTERES IN HER ESTATE.
[ LAUGHING ]
SO WHO OWNS THE OTHER
FORTY NINE PERCENT?
Todd Finston: HOW'S IT GOING?
TODD?
HEY, LITTLE BROTHER.
ISN'T THIS A KICK?
[ LAUGHING ]
UHH.
OH, HI, COUNSELOR.

OH, I WAS GOING

AUNT IDA'S BEDROOM.
REMEMBER THE SUMMER SHE STAYED
WITH US, WHEN MOM AND DAD
WERE ON VACATION.
YEAH, TODD, I REMEMBER IT.
IT TOOK ME FOUR YEARS OF
PSYCHOTHERAPY TO GET OVER IT.
THAT'S PROBABLY WHY SHE
LEFT EVERYTHING TO US.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HI THE BEACH.
SAME OLD TODD.
SAME OLD ALAN.
SO TELL ME, TODD, WHA HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO LATELY?
WELL, I WAS UP
IN SEATTLE FOR A WHILE.
I FINALLY FOUND A BACKER FOR
MY SOLAR POWERED HOTDOG STANDS.
THEN IT RAINED FOR
SIXTY DAYS IN A ROW.
THE GUY BACKED OUT,
SO I'VE JUST BEEN TRAVELING
AROUND, STAYING WITH FRIENDS.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
TODD, I HAVE TAKEN THE MOS IMPORTANT STEP OF MY LIFE.
[ LAUGHING ]
YOU FINALLY GOT UP THE NERVE
TO ASK A GIRL OUT ON A DATE.

GETTING MARRIED TO HER.
[ LAUGHING ]
YOU'RE KIDDING?
NO, REALLY, I'M ENGAGED.
HER NAME IS JANE.
HERE, LOOK I-I HAVE
A PICTURE OF HER.

RUNNING A BIKINI SHOP.
IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.
OF COURSE, YOU AND JANE
CAN HAVE AUNT IDA'S BEDROOM.
I'LL GIVE YOU GUYS YOUR PRIVACY.
HERE, TODD, TAKE A LOOK
AT THIS FIGURE.
WELL, WHAT ABOUT IT?
WELL, BASED ON SOME
BALLPARK ESTIMATIONS,
THIS IS HOW MUCH YOU AND I
WILL DIVIDE WHEN WE SELL
THE BIKINI STORE AND THE HOUSE.
SELL THEM, ARE YOU NUTS?
IT'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH
MORE FUN STAYING RIGHT HERE.
FUN?
I'M A COLLEGE GRADUATE
NOW, TODD.
I HAVE MY FUTURE ALL PLANNED.
I HAD PLENTY OF FUN IN COLLEGE.
I'LL BET.
LOOK, ANYWAY,
AUNT IDA LEFT ME THE
CONTROLLING INTEREST, TODD.
SHE KNEW SHE COULD TRUST ME
TO DO WHAT WAS BEST FOR US.
BEST FOR YOU, YOU MEAN.
AS FOR ME, IT WAS ORDAIN
THAT I LIVE OUT THE RES OF MY DAYS, RIGHT HERE.
IT'S MY DESTINY.
WELL, YOU CAN LIVE OU YOUR DESTINY FOR ABOUT A WEEK,
TODD, 'CAUSE THAT'S HOW LONG
IT'S GONNA TAKE ME TO GE EVERYTHING TAKEN CARE OF.
IT'S, UH, IT'S
ALMOST OPENING TIME.
DON'T YOU, GIRLS,
THINK YOU SHOULD BE
GETTING DRESSED FOR WORK?
THEY ARE DRESSED
FOR WORK, ALAN.
SHOW HIM, GIRLS.
[ LADIES LAUGHING ]
OH, TODD.
ALAN, YOU CAN'T EXPECT TO
SELL THE MERCHANDISE, UNLESS
THE CUSTOMER KNOWS WHAT I LOOKS LIKE WHEN IT'S ON.
I DON'T HAVE TIME
TO ARGUE WITH YOU, TODD.
I HAVE TO GO OVER
AUNT IDA'S BOOKS.
ALL FINISHED, YOUNG MAN.
GOT TO HAND IT TO YOU.
IT'S A VERY CLEVER IDEA OF
YOURS, INSTALLING A TWO-WAY
MIRROR FOR SECURITY.
TOO MUCH SHOP LIFTING
AMONG KIDS THESE DAYS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU CAN'T BE TOO CAREFUL.
[ MUSIC ]
SO KEEP IT RIGHT HERE
ON K-T-N-E SANTA MONICA.
[ MUSIC ]
HELLO-- WELCOME TO
IDA'S BIKINI SHOP.
YESIREE, THE OLD SIZE FIVE RACK.
UH, YEAH, YOU CERTAINLY
ARE A SIZE FIVE.
THAT'S SOME MIGHTY FINE
ARTICLE OF SWIMWEAR
YOU'VE CHOSEN THERE.
HOWEVER, I THINK YOU MIGH FIND SOME OF OUR OTHER SUITS
TO BE EQUALLY WELL CRAFTED.
YUP, YUP, HERE IT IS.
THE GOOD OLD DRESSING ROOM.
OH, I HOPE YOU'LL
FIND IT COMFORTABLE.
UH, THIS NEW MIRROR,
WE RECENTLY HAD INSTALLED,
IS FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE.
UH, IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME,
I'LL, UH, I'LL JUST--
I'LL BE, UH, I'LL BE GOING.
[ LAUGHING ]
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, MAN.
THIS IS GOING TO BE SO GREAT.
I'M JUST GLAD THAT AUNT IDA
IS NOT AROUND TO SEE THIS.
OH, OH.
ALAN, IF I EVER GET MARRIED,
IT'S GONNA BE TO A SIZE FIVE.
TODD, YOU SHOULD BE
ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
I AM-- I'M ASHAMED.
I'M ASHAMED-- SURE.
MAY I HELP
YOU FIND SOMETHING?
I NEED A NEW BATHING SUIT.
HOW ABOUT THIS?
YOU MUST BE CRAZY.
HONEY, I WANT TO
GET SUN TANNED.
GET OUT OF MY WAY.
OH, MY GOD!
I'M GOING OUT THERE,
AND SEE IF SHE NEEDS ANY HELP.
AAAH!
IN CASE YOU'RE INTERESTED, TODD,
I FINISHED GOING OVER AUNT IDA'S
FINANCIAL RECORDS LAST NIGHT.
YEAH.
WHOO.
OH.
SEEMS THE BIKINI SHOP'S
BEEN DOING A DECENT VINE
OF BUSINESS, BUT IT'S BEEN
LOSING MONEY ALL THESE YEARS.
WHY IS THAT?
AUNT IDA SPENT MUCH MORE
ON HER EXTRAVAGANT PROMOTIONS
AND HER PARTIES THAN
SHE TOOK IN FROM SALES.
SHE HAD A LOT OF FUN,
BUT SHE DIDN'T KNOW
HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS.
CAN I BORROW YOUR HAIR DRYER?
DEFINITELY.
SO, ANYWAY, SHE PUT ALL
HER DIVORCE SETTLEMENT MONEY
INTO THE STORE.
WHEN THAT RAN OUT, SHE
RE-MORTGAGED THE HOUSE
TO THE HILL, JUST TO
KEEP THE BUSINESS GOING.
WELL, WHAT CAN WE DO?
WHAT IT MEANS, TODD,
IS THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO WORK AWFULLY HARD
TO SELL THE STORE.
YOU SEE, IT'S GOTTA BE TURNED
INTO A PROFIT MAKING BUSINESS
IN ORDER TO ATTRACT A BUYER.
NOW I FIGURE, IT'LL TAKE
A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO GE EVERYTHING TAKEN CARE OF.
IN THE MEANTIME,
WE CAN JUST LIVE HERE.
NOW YOU, TODD, CAN EITHER
HELP ME OUT OR NOT.
IT'S UP TO YOU.
NO OFFENSE, ALAN,
BUT I THINK LIVING WITH YOU
IS GONNA DRIVE ME CRAZY.
[ SIGHS ]
I SAID NO OFFENSE.
[ MUSIC ]
HI, RONNIE.
HI, RONNIE.
HI.
HOW WAS YOUR COOKING CLASS?
NOT SO GOOD.
YEAH, THE TEACHER
GAVE US A "D" ON OUR PROJECT,
JUST BECAUSE WE WERE
TRYING TO BE CREATIVE.
WHAT DID YOU MAKE?
PINEAPPLE INSIDE OUT CAKE.
YOU WANT TO TASTE?
UM, THAT LOOKS REALLY
DELICIOUS, BUT I JUST ATE.
MAYBE ALAN AND TODD
WOULD LIKE SOME.
UH, I BET TODD WILL.
[ LAUGHING ]
I THINK HE'S REAL CUTE.
YEAH, BUT ALAN'S
KIND OF A NERD.
YOU KNOW, HE'S SO
MR. BUSINESS MAN.
I THINK HE'S REALLY NICE.
CAN'T HELP IT IF HE'S SMART.
YEAH, WELL, IF HE'S SO SMART,
THEN HOW COME HE'S
GETTING MARRIED SO YOUNG?
GOD, I CAN'T IMAGINE
BEING MARRIED AT OUR AGE.
YEAH.
HE'S ENGAGED?
YEAH, YOU DIDN'T KNOW?
NO, I DIDN'T.
HEY, DOESN'T HE
NEED TO SIGN THIS?
NO, LET'S SEE.
THEY'RE NOT READY YET.
OH, YEAH.
SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW?
YEAH.
BUT, JANE I DON'T HAVE
A FAVORITE STYLE OF CUMBERBUND.
LOOK-- THE WEDDING
ISN'T UNTIL SEPTEMBER.
COULDN'T YOU JUST PICK ONE OU FOR ME, AND I'LL LOOK AT I WHEN I GET BACK?
OH, ALL RIGHT.
BUT I WISH YOU COULD
COME HOME SOONER.
DADDY SAYS HIS COMPANY HAS
CONNECTIONS IN CALIFORNIA,
AND IF YOU WANT, HE CAN
HELP YOU SELL THE STORE.
JANE, I'D REALLY LIKE
TO DO THIS ON MY OWN.
UH, BUT I'LL BE HOME
AS SOON AS I CAN.
YOU BETTER BE.
TALK TO YOU TOMORROW?
SURE.
KISSY, KISSY, KISS.
UM, KISSY, KISSY, KISS.
ALAN, YOU ARE IN LUCK, MAN.
I'VE BEEN DOING
SOME BRAINSTORMING.
I'VE COME UP WITH
SOME GREAT NEW IDEAS
FOR IMPROVING BUSINESS.
WELL, I'M REALLY GLAD YOU
WANNA HELP, TODD, BUT I'VE
COME UP WITH MY OWN IDEAS.
LESS EXPENSIVE MERCHANDISE,
NO FREE GIFT WRAPPING,
LONGER HOURS?
ALAN, DIDN'T THEY TEACH YOU
ANYTHING ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS
IN COLLEGE?
PEOPLE WANNA HAVE FUN.
THIS WOMAN'S NAME IS
BERTA HILGARD, AND I THINK
WE STAND A GOOD CHANCE
AT SELLING HER THE STORE.
UH, SHE'S HAD NO EXPERIENCE
IN RETAIL, BUT SHE'S ALWAYS
DREAMED OF OWNING A SHOP
ON THE BOARDWALK.
HUH, LET'S HOPE IT WORKS OUT.
THANKS A LOT FOR
YOUR HELP, MR. REMINGTON.
THANK YOU-- IT'S BEEN
A PLEASURE SERVING YOU.

IT WAS A DISASTER.
I JUST WANTED TO GE INTO THE CLOTHING BUSINESS,

COME ON!
THESE PEOPLE SHOULD
PRAY FOR A FIRE.
OH, SOL!

SURE, TODD, HOW?
KATHY AND CINDY AND RONNIE

THEIR RENT JUST WENT UP.
SO I THOUGHT, SINCE WE HAD
SO MUCH EXTRA ROOM,
WE COULD JUST--
THEY COULD MOVE IN.
WAIT A MINUTE, TODD.
THERE IS NO WAY THEY
CAN MOVE IN HERE.
NOW, FIRST OF ALL,
IT'S HARD ENOUGH JUS YOU AND I GETTING ALONG.
SECONDLY, WELL, HOW DO YOU THINK
JANE WOULD LIKE IT IF SHE KNEW
I WAS LIVING WITH THREE GIRLS.
YEAH, I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN.
OKAY.
THERE'S JUS ONE PROBLEM, THOUGH.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, ALAN?
WELL-WELL-WELL, JUST THIS.
WE COULD GET MARRIED,
AND THEN LIVE OUT HERE.
I REALLY ENJOY RUNNING
MY OWN STORE, AND YOU COULD
BECOME INVOLVED, TOO.
IT MAY NOT BE A WHOLE LO OF MONEY AT FIRST,
BUT AFTER A WHILE--
I CANT BELIEVE
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
I'VE WORKED SO HARD TO MAKE
THESE PLANS FOR US, AND NOW
YOU WANNA THROW IT ALL AWAY
ON THE BIKINI STORE.
I THINK YOU CARE MORE ABOU THOSE SHOW OFF SALES GIRLS THAN
YOU DO ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE.
NO, NO, JANE,
THAT'S NOT IT, REALLY.
I'VE DONE EVERYTHING
I CAN TO MAKE YOU HAPPY.
I KNOW THAT.
I-I-I KNOW, JANE.
PROMISE ME YOU'LL SELL

[ MUSIC ]
SO, MR. GREENE, HAVE YOU

WELL, THEN I WAN TO BUY IT BACK.
ALAN FINSTON, JUST WHAT--
SHUT UP, JANE!
MR. GREENE, HOW 'BOUT IT?
MR. FINSTON, I'M A
REASONABLE MAN AND NO WITHOUT SENTIMENT.
THERE IS ANOTHER LOCATION
AVAILABLE UP THE STREE WHICH MAY SUIT OUR NEEDS.
YOU KNOW, I THINK I'M GONNA
LET YOU BUY YOUR STORE BACK.
YOU ARE?
YES, AND I ESTIMATE
THE PLACE IS WORTH $66,000.
BUT THAT'S $6,000 MORE
THAN YOU PAID FOR IT.
PRECISELY, AND I'LL EXPEC THE 6,000 IN CASH TWO WEEKS FROM
TODAY, OR THERE'S NO SALE.
GOOD DAY.
WOW, ALAN, YOU WERE GREAT.
BUT WE CAN'T POSSIBLY
RAISE $6,000 IN TWO WEEKS.
YES, WE CAN.
WE'LL FIND A WAY.
ALAN FINSTON,
WHAT'S COME OVER YOU?
IF YOU INTEND TO GO
THROUGH WITH THIS IDIOCY,
YOU AND I ARE THROUGH.
JANE... YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU AND I ARE THROUGH.
[ LAUGHING ]

I DON'T KNOW.
I GUESS I JUST HATE AQUA.
HUH?

HEY, TODD.
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
THE HONOLULU AIRPOR WAS SNOWED IN.
LOOK, TODD.
I KNOW I HAVEN'T GIVEN YOU
MUCH OF A CHANCE SINCE I GO OUT HERE, BUT IF YOU JUS GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE,
I'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN
ACCOMPLISH WHEN WE JOIN FORCES.
OKAY?
SURE, YOU GOT IT.
AND I JUST KNOW
IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF
THAT STUPID BIKINI STORE.
SON OF A BITCH-- YOU KNOW
WHAT I'VE SPENT ALREADY
ON THE CATERING ALONE?
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING
YOU CAN DO, DEAR?
YOU HAVE CONNECTIONS
IN CALIFORNIA.
YEAH.
UNFORTUNATELY, PROMOTIONS
COST MONEY.
WE BARELY MADE A PROFI ON THAT SUNTAN CONTEST.
DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY
BIKINIS WE'D HAVE TO SELL
TO MAKE $6,000?
I'LL GO GET THE COFFEE.
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH
BIKINIS IN STOCK TO BRING
IN THAT KIND OF MONEY.
WE COULD ORDER MORE?
NO, I'M AFRAID NOT.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY CREDIT,
AND WE DON'T HAVE THE CASH.
THE HOUSE?
AUNT IDA WORKED I TO THE HILL, JUST TO KEEP
THE BUSINESS GOING.
UH, MR. REMINGTON?
HE STOPPED RETURNING
MY CALLS.
HEY-HEY.
WHAT?
ALL WE NEED IS A
FANTASTIC NEW LINE OF BIKINIS
THAT EVERYBODY WILL WANNA BUY,
THAT WON'T COST US A DIME.
HEY, IF ONLY
ONE OF US KNEW HOW TO--
RONNIE!
WHAT?!
YOU ARE GONNA DESIGN
OUR NEW LINE OF BIKINIS.
BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN.
WELL, RONNIE, I THINK
IT'S TIME YOU FOUND OUT.
BUT YOU MUST FIND IT.
ONE OF YOUR SALES GIRLS
SAID SHE PUT IT AWAY FOR ME.
I KNOW, I'M LOOKING.
HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED
TO TIE THIS?
I'M NOT SURE.
WAIT FOR ONE MINUTE WHILE I--
DON'T YOU HAVE
ANY TOPS WITH DART?
DARTS?
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
WHERE ARE YOUR
SALES GIRLS, ANYWAY?
NO, IT'S STILL NOT RIGHT.
IT'S OKAY, RONNIE.
YOU'LL THINK OF SOMETHING.
YEAH, WE STILL HAVE TIME.
[ KNOCKING ON DOOR ]

HOW'D IT GO IN HERE?
WELL, YOU CAN'T RUSH
THESE THINGS, YOU KNOW.
YEAH, I'M A LOUSY MODEL.
CAN'T EVEN STAND STILL.
THANKS, BUT IT'S MY FAULT.
I HAVEN'T COME UP WITH A THING.
WAIT TILL YOU GUYS SEE THIS.
WE'RE ALL SET.
THIS HOSPITAL SUPPLY HOUSE
IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.
I GOT ALL THIS STUFF...
FOR ALMOST NOTHING.
SURGICAL GOWNS,
DOZENS OF THEM.
THERE MUST BE HUNDREDS OF
YARDS OF MATERIAL IN HERE.
WE CAN USE IT TO
MAKE THE BIKINIS.
LOOK AT THIS-- SURGICAL THREAD,
NEEDLES, SCISSORS--
EVERYTHING WE NEED.
WELL, I HAD TO SPEND
THE REST OF OUR MONEY,
BUT FROM NOW ON, THESE BIKINIS
ARE GONNA BE 100% PROFIT.
WHAT'S WITH HIM?
TODD, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WITH ALL THIS GREEN STUFF?
YEAH, WHAT KIND OF
A LOOK WOULD THAT BE?
THE LATEST IN
HIGH FASHION HOSPITAL.

DON'T WORRY, WE CAN DO IT.
THIS IS GONNA BE THE BIGGES BEACH PARTY ANYBODY
AROUND HERE HAS EVER SEEN.
I DON'T KNOW, TODD.
IF THIS IS ANOTHER EXCUSE
FOR ONE OF YOUR BIG PARTIES.
HEY, I THOUGHT WE WERE
WORKING TOGETHER NOW?
YOU'RE RIGHT, WE ARE.
BESIDES, IT IS A GOOD
EXCUSE TO HAVE A PARTY.
JUST KIDDING.
AND NOW THEY'RE MAKING
THEIR OWN BIKINIS IN THE STORE,
SO THEY CAN RAISE $6,000.
I HAVE A CLIENT OUT HERE
WHO HOLDS A SEAT ON
THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
I THINK HE'LL BE ABLE
TO HELP US.
DON'T YOU WORRY, PRINCESS.
ALAN IS GOING TO MARRY YOU.
I DON'T EVEN
WANNA MARRY HIM ANYMORE.
I JUST WANNA RUIN HIS LIFE.
WHOA, THE JUNGLE LOOK.

[ MUSIC ]
OKAY, LOOK, WE STILL

SO, WE'LL STAY RIGHT HERE,
AND WE'LL SEW AS MANY
BIKINIS AS WE CAN BY HAND.
BUT WE WON'T BE ABLE
TO GET HALF AS MANY DONE
AS WE COULD HAVE.
WELL, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
WE'LL PROMOTE THE FAC THAT THEY'RE HAND SEWN,
AND WE'LL DOUBLE THE PRICES.
I JUST WISH YOU
TWO KNEW HOW TO SEW.
TELL 'EM, ALAN.
TODD.
