man of his energies,
don't they?
That's very perceptive
of you, Monica.
Very perceptive.
I hear we're having
Indian food.
I certainly hope so.
Chapatis, huh?
Well, I... I guess they've got
a few of those laid in.
Hello. Won't you
excuse us, please.
You happy, gorgeous flower?
We're having
a nice affair here.
Hi, how are you?
Nice to see you.
It's fine, but I'm... I'm
worried about the meal.
Wait till you see
the entertainment.
What?
Jasmine, enter.
Cheers!
Hi, Cliff.
Oh, my!
Oh.
Uh, she's... she's... she's...
She's terrific. Come on.
Oh, you're ready.
I'm ready.
Okay, you set?
Set.
All right. Fire!
Be careful now. Hold on.
There's a fire! Fire!
Don't panic!
What are you doing?
Stop it.
Clifford,
what are you doing, man?
Stop it, please. Cliff.
Leave the arrangements
to me, would you?
This shit is so unique,
they're gonna love it.
They're gonna love this shit.
I panicked, I'm sorry.
I panicked.
It's okay, it's okay. Just
none of us eat it, all right.
Your dinner is now served.
Come on, everybody.
Hmm. Not bad.
Beats fruit cup.
Isn't it marvelous having
so many educated talents
all in one place?
Is she Indian?
I think so.
Mahatma Gandhi
never had it so good.
Truly. Of course,
he wasn't that
big an eater anyway.
That's funny.
Oh, sahib,
follow me, brother.
This is great.
This is tremendous.
They're buying it.
You pulled it off.
I can't thank you enough.
Hey, no problem, Skridlow.
Thank me in the car, okay?
What do you mean
in the car?
We have to go in to town.
What? Not me.
I'm not going anywhere.
I haven't slept
in days, Diavolo.
Listen, Cliff, we don't have
much time, okay.
The word is on the street.
You have to
make an appearance,
because the Doctor goes public
in about one hour.
Are you crazy?
No, man, you're crazy.
You invented the dude,
not me.
So, I guess I'll catch you
in the car, brother.
Oh, come on,
everyone's talking about
how you stopped Mom.
Doctor Detroit has to be
on the scene, right?
He has to.
That's the end of it.
Uh, say, man,
put this shit on.
Props are in the bag.
Oh, terrific. Bag.
I must say, though, ladies,
you have given me
the most extraordinary week
of my life.
Oh, sweet.
Really.
Oh, man, you know,
you're gonna do good out here
in this city with
that wig and metal hand.
Lime-green pants.
Duty.
Honor.
And responsibility.
Hey, be the Doctor,
baby.
Doctor, my man,
give me five, man.
I'll give you $20 and then
you can keep the change.
See you at the Players Ball,
my man, huh?
All right. All right.
That was great.
What's the Players Ball?
Nothing, nothing.
Be cool, be cool.
I heard you wiped Mom out.
How did you do it?
You might say I
rearranged her front end.
You know, you'll be king
of the Players Ball?
Ain't no doubt about it.
You're beautiful. Terrific.
All right. What is
the Players Ball
they keep talkin' about?
It's tomorrow night, honey.
That's okay, I'll protect you.
Tomorrow night?
I have a prior engagement.
I can't go. I can't go.
Oh, no. Where is it?
Somebody picks the place
and we all show up there.
It's a subcultural event,
sweetheart.
It's our responsibility
to be there.
Oh, I can't be there.
I can't.
Yes, you can.
Grab him.
What is...
Dinner.
Come on, wake him up.
Give him air.
Tomorrow... Tomorrow night
is... is the college
alumni dinner.
Where?
At the Excelsior Hotel,
I have to be there.
I don't know where or what
your Players Ball is,
but I simply cannot be
in two places at once.
Yes, you can. Yes, you can.
We'll take care of everything.
Now, how are we
gonna do that?
Shh.
Loosen his belt.
Karen, get your mind
out of the gutter.
Oh, Jesus Christ, do you think
this is gonna work?
Sure, it'll work. Sure.
This is Ed here.
Your dime, go ahead.
Yo, Eddie.
Yeah.
What's happenin'?
This is Diavolo.
Oh, go ahead, Diavolo.
Listen, Eddie, if the Doctor
is king, he chooses the place
where he wants
to be
