## [Hums] [Gasps] Pancakes!
- Hi, kitty. - [Beeps]
- Hey, Ash. It's me, David. - [Gasps]
Uh, big art opening tonight at Station "A" Gallery.
- David Pennington.! - Meet you there at 7:00? Don't break my heart.
- [Beeps] - David Pennington. Another date.
- I'm not going. - Why not? It's a chance with a great guy.
No. It's a chance to get hit by a bus. Maggie...
your black cat is crossing my path.
Not good.
Come on, Pancakes. Don't be scared of the superstitious, mean lady.
I'm not superstitious, but it's true. I mean, it's bad luck.
[Sighs] Dane, how's my scope?
Leo. Leo.
- "Your moon is in Uranus." - Ooh.
Doesrt sound pretty.
He could have canceled. Isn't that proof enough...
that this whole bad luck thing is totally bogus?
[Chuckles] I don't think so.
Ashley, unlucky girls...
don't get asked out by one of Us Weekly's most eligible bachelors.
Unlucky girls sit and watch their more fortunate friends get asked out...
while they sit at home and watch Oprah and eat last year's Halloween candy.
- That's true. - You're right.
Of course I'm right. Go get ready.
[Sighs] You know what?
Maybe I'm not cursed. You know, I'm just looking at things the wrong way.
And these setbacks could just be opportunities.
- Of course. - Exactly.
- Because when one door closes... - Two others open.
Okay. I'm turning over a new leaf, and my good luck starts now.
Good.
It's okay.
Oh...
Did you just put that back in your eye?
- It was my last one, guys. - That's really gross.
Ow! My eye!
[Chattering]
But, you see, l... I'm on the list. I'm "plus one."
David Pennington, plus one.
- Hi, David. - There he is. See? There he is.
- Oh, hey. - David Pennington. There.
No, no, no. There. She's... She's with me.
Thank you. Oh!
Ooh.
I'm okay. Fine.
Come on. I got a surprise for you.
Oh, my God.
Would you look at that big, ugly...
- brown pile of... - Uh, Ashley...
It looked like it came out of the rear end of an elephant. [Groans]
- Ashley. - Huh?
Uh... [Clears Throat] Meet my mother, the artist.
- Hmm. - The artist.
Hi, Mrs. Pennington.
You know, you look so much younger in person.
Not that I mean you're old or anything.
David, if I'm going to listen to this, I'll need vodka.
Good idea.
- Waiter. - [Man] Yes, sir.
Sure. Hmm?
No, thank you.
David, darling, that awful man from the Times is here.
It's him.
- That son of a... - Excuse me.
Yeah? Oh, um, the waiter. He was just...
- More your type? I totally agree. - Wha...
- Mother, please. - Um, if you two don't mind, I'm gonna run to the ladies' room.
You! Finally.
- Excuse me? - You're gonna keep your tongue in your mouth at all times...
- 'cause this is strictly business. - What?
- Give me back my luck. Come here. - What the...
- Let go of me. - Just... Uh-oh.
## [Techno]
[Man On P.A.] From the bowels of this mortal coil come... the mud men.
- Kiss me, damn it! - Let me up! I'm in the show!
- [Man] I am a mud man. - [Woman] I am a mud woman.
[Group] We are mud people...
and he is our mud king.
- [Murmuring] - [Groans]
- Heart attack! I know C.P.R.! - I'm not having...
He's not breathing.!
He's totally breathing!
No, he's not. It's a cardiac reflex thing.
- I need to give him mouth-to-mouth. - [Muffled] I can't breathe.
[Both Moaning]
Mmm.
He's gonna be okay.
- Sorry. - Lucky you were here.
Lucky you know C.P.R.
Yeah. You know what? That's me. Lucky.
You know, I'm feeling kind of... Oh!
- [Gasps] - [Crowd Gasping]
Oh.
[Woman] Irreplaceable.!
[Man] It's ruined.
- [Shutter Clicks] - This is ridiculous. It was just mud.
[Clears Throat]
You must have met my twin sister. She was in here the other night.
She's the bitch. I'm the nice one.
- What can I get you? - Um, can I just have a glass of water?
No buy, no sit. See?
- Can I use the bathroom? - [Scoffs]
N-No buy, no bathroom!
Okay. Great. Fine. Fine. I'm leaving.
I'm leaving. Oh, are you all enjoying the show?
You know, the real me doesn't have days like this.
As a matter of fact, maybe I'm not even here right now.
This is all probably a... a dream that I'm having...
induced by a... a deep-tissue massage.
- Yes. A massage that I won at a charity raffle. - [Man] Shut up.
That looks good. Are you done with that?
No. That was a joke. I'm not gonna eat your scraps.
Gosh! Maybe just some bacon.
- [Crowd Groaning] - Mmm! Mmm!
I don't know what she's doing.
Mmm! Mmm!
Oh, my God. I'm like a coyote.
[Man Chuckling]
Perfect.
Oh, not the salt.
Just so everyone knows...
I think what I'm about to do is completely ridiculous, but it can't hurt, can it?
Come on.
- [Screaming] My eye! - Oh, my God!
Oh! Oh, my...
- It was an accident. I'm sorry. - Miss, I think it's, uh...
- time to go now. - Oh, my God. All right.
I'm sorry. It was an accident.
[Man Groaning]
- I think we're clear. - Thanks for that. Sorry.
- I couldn't help but overhear your, uh... - Oh, meltdown?
- [Chuckles] - Yeah. Broke. Jobless. And I just ate lejambon d'etranger.
- What? - A stranger's bacon. I thought it would sound better in French.
- Oh. - Guess not.
You looked a little hungry. I thought you could use this. Turkey on rye, extra mustard.
Oh. Yes. Thank you.
- Thanks. Um, nice to meet you. - Okay. Yeah.
I'm gonna...
Look. I know of a job... if you're looking for one.
[Chuckles] Really? What's the scam?
- No scam. - Well, do you want me to join your religion or something?
[Chuckles] No. No religion stuff.
It's just a job. You know, a bad job. Crummy pay for crummy hours.
That still doesn't answer my question. What's the scam?
Let's just say I know what it's like to be S.O.L.
- S.O.L.? - "Shit out of luck."
What makes you think I'm S.O.L.? Just because I spilt the salt back there?
Yeah.
Oh!
Look. Where you are right now, I've been there.
Been there? I lived there. I was kind of the mayor of there.
[Chuckles]
I'm Jake.
Ashley.
- Oh, God. - Yeah, yeah. No, you got it.
- Oh, my gosh. - Looks great on you.
Can anything else... I mean, to be honest...
I'm not really dressed for a job interview right now.
For this one I think you'll be fine.
- Okay. - Wanna check it out?
- Why are you so nice? - Why... Just... Look. I mean...
shit out of luck... That's my thing.
...put me in this position. - You're gonna love her.
- This is not fair. Listen. - She's great.
- I don't need another loser waitress here. - Okay, Mac. Okay.
- You won't be sorry. - [Sighs]
- I didn't get it. - No, no, no, no, no. No, no. It's not that.
You can have the job, but it's my old job.
So?
Well, see, l... I'd hoped he would hire you as a waitress or something.
My old gig was kind of a... like a janitor, food delivery person, toilet attendant.
I'll take it. I'll take it.
## [Man Singing]

[Muffled] Come on, boys. Move it or lose it. Let's go.
There we go.
## [Ends]
Before Phillips will release the album, he wants to see you play a larger space...
- like the Knitting Factory. - [All] Oh!
See if you can hold a big crowd for an hour, create some preheat. Huh?
- Yeah! When? - I don't know.
- Guys! Listen. Carley, turn the radio up. - ## [Radio: Rock]
- No way! - That's it! That's it!
## [Continues]
Let's celebrate. Burgers and fries on me.
[All] All right.
Hey, sweetie. You, uh, scamper up that ladder and... and fix that light.
- Well, I'm not so good with... - Thanks.
Heights.
[Radio: Man] That's McFly, a new British invasion band...
Phillips will tell us tonight. In the meantime, we have to focus on fine-tuning...
Whoa.
Track... See, that's not good.
She should have gone up without the bulb...
then brought down the old one, because now she's gonna be juggling...
Eh! Hey!
- You know where the broom is. - Yeah. I'll...
And she should have turned off the light first because now she's gonna be...
[Screaming]
Electrocuted.
- [Panting] Oh, my God. - Hi.
Hi.
So, other than, uh, you know, getting zapped, how's the job working out?
- Oh, I can't complain. - That's good.
No. I mean I'm literally not allowed to complain. I had to sign something.
Oh. I remember that.
- This is cold, so it'll help. - You're very handy with this stuff.
- Thanks. - Ah, that feels good.
- Is that toothpaste? - Yeah. It's an ancient Chinese remedy for burned fingers.
- [Chuckles] - Yeah. It pays to be prepared.
I've got everything in this backpack.
I have first aid, extra socks.
- Isn't that a bit defeatist? - No, it's being a realist. You've been out there.
[Chuckles] Hey. Let me see your cell phone.
Why?
- What the... What is this? - Oh. Flip it like that.
Like that.
Address book.
"Bergdorf's, Bendel's and sushi."
Are you nuts? Unlucky people need hospitals.
Also, never call 911. They take forever.
Fire responds. They're great.
National Poison Control Center. Ask for Lou. He's very good.
- [Chuckles] - [Chuckles]
You know what? Um...
this backpack has seen me through just about everything.
And...
I think it's time to pass it on.
- Oh. No, no, no. I couldn't. - No. No. Honestly, I think you should have it.
- Please. You need it more than I do. - Thank you.
- [Cell Phone Rings] - [Sighs]
Uh, I better take this.
- Oh, yeah. Sure. Of course. - Hey, Katy. How's my girl? What?
Your key? You checked the doormat? [Chuckles]
Um, okay. What... What if I pick you up, take you to the new place?
Yeah. You'll love it. It's huge.
Okay. We'll have pizza. It'll be fun.
- I gotta run. - Okay. Uh, yeah.
See ya, Ashley. Uh, it's just a... It's a girl. Yeah. No.
## [Singing]
- Hey. Guys. Guys. Guys. Come on. - ## [Stops]
- Hey, guys. Sounds good. - How you doing? Thank you.
- What's going on? - Look, Jake. The Knitting Factory fell through.
- What? - Oh, you're joking.
- That sucks. - But "Five Colours" has been gettir great radio play...
so I decided to book our boys at the new Hard Rock Cafe Times Square.
No way!
- Who's your boy, huh? This is big! - Beauty.!
- [Chattering] - This is... This is big. How's my follow-up coming?
We're... We're working on it.
- Uh... - All right. That's good. Don't let me stop you.
- Sounds good, guys. Congratulations. - All right. Have a good one.
So, um, Jake, when are we gonna hear this amazing follow-up?
- When you guys write it. - Right.
Hey, Jake. You got a delivery.
Over there.
[Man] Hey. Isn't that that bird from the bowling alley?
- [Man #2] Yeah. The electrocuted one. - [Man #3] Hey, Jakey.
Danny, let's work on your vocals for "Too Close for Comfort."
I think we're on the right track. Just tighten it up a little bit.
Okay. We're... We're gonna take it from the second verse.
- Hey. - Hey.
- Oh! I'm sorry. - It's okay.
- Thanks. Oh! - I got it. I got it. I got it.
## [Rock]
- I'm... I'm sorry about... - No. Don't worry about it.
Come on in. Check out this song.
## [Singing]
Sounds great, Tim.
- They sound good. - Yeah. Yeah. They do, don't they?
- Yeah. - So, did you hear we're playing the new Hard Rock?
- Wow. That's great. - Yeah. Well, besides the fact that it's a huge space...
I'm probably not gonna be able to fill it...
- and I'm kind of dead. - It's tough, but not impossible.
## [Singing Continues]
So, you think maybe, uh, you'd want to go to coffee later...
or something maybe?
Yeah, um... [Clears Throat] That'd be nice.
[Door Opens]
Oh. There she is.
- Oh. Is... Is that Katy? - Yeah. [Chuckles]
She's cute, huh? She picked out this jacket.
- Oh. Nice. - Yeah.
- Looks like a tramp. - What?
What? Camp. Camp. She looks like someone I went to camp with.
- Yeah. - Strange.
Weird.
You know, l... I better get going. Uh, Mac wants me to reset the rat trap.
So, should I call you tonight?
Um, yeah, about that... Oh, geez.
Um, yeah. Some other time maybe. I have other plans.
- If that's cool. Sorry about that again. - That's okay.
- Bye. - Bye.
[Door Closes]
Oh!
## [Ends]
- Thanks for the ride, Jake. - Yeah. Hold up one second.
Um, so I'll see you later?
Tell Aunt Martha I'm gonna send Bernie with the car to pick you up. Don't forget your homework.
- Yeah, yeah. I hear ya. Later. - All right. See ya.
[Door Closes]
Oh, no, no, no, no. Don't do that.
Don't open the umbrella. Not inside.
Very unlucky.
[Grunting]

Oh! Oh! [Yelps]
[Breathing Heavily]
- Bernie. - Yes, sir?
Back it up, will ya?
[Whimpers]
Oh, God.
You know, there's a poncho in that backpack.
I didn't even think to... to look.
Can I give you a ride?
I only live 29 blocks from here.
Uh, at least take my umbrella.
I already have one.
You know, I got a washer-dryer, uh...
microwave popcorn, satellite TV.
No. L... l... I really shouldn't.
Look. I don't do this for just anybody, but...
I'll even throw in some hot chocolate with those little tiny marshmallows.
I love the tiny marshmallows.
How about you toss the lightning rod and get in?
Oh.
Thank you.
[Thunder Rumbling]
- [Door Closes] - [Sighs]
- Nice place. - Yeah. Um...
We should get you some dry clothes. Here. Let me get this.
- Oh, thank you. - Laundry room's that way. Bathroom's right over there.
Uh, kitchers right here. Go whichever way you think you should go.
- Thanks. - Yeah. Sure.
[Sighs]
Mind if I throw some of my clothes in with yours?
No. Not at all. Wow. Laundry room in your apartment.
- As far as I'm concerned, that's when you know you've arrived. - Yeah. It's pretty cool.
[Chuckles] You know what? I should wash this too. Hold on.
Okay. [Sighs]
Oh. Oh, shoot.
- Toss this in for me, will ya? - Um, yeah. Sure.
- Thanks. - [Phone Rings]
- Oh. I should get this. I'll be right back. - Okay. I'll be in here.
- [Beeps] - [Groans]
Since when does a washing machine need an L.C.D. Screen?
- [Beeps] - Okay.
- [Beeps] - [Whirring]
[Sighs]
Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. What is going on?
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, no!
Stop! Please stop! Stop!
- [Beeping] - Um, off.
Off! [Groans]
What are you, possessed? Oh!

- Okay. - Oh.!
What is going on? Okay. Water off.
Water off! Oh!

[Gasps]

Hello?
Oh, my God. Oh!

I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I got it. I got it. I got...
- [Whirring Stops] - [Sighs]
- How'd you do that? - [Chuckles]
Uh, there's a... there's an off button on the L.C.D. Screen.
What can I say? I am a pathetic disaster, and I give up.
- You give up? - I give up. I don't care anymore.
You know what? It feels great.
[Yelps]
You know what? I gave up years ago. It's my secret to happiness.
Oh! Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
- Play fair. - Oh.
- Ow. - Oh, no.
- Oh, man. - Your eye?
- You're done. - I'm sorry.
No.
Oh, cool!
Oh, am I interrupting something?
- Hi, Katy. - Hi.
- Wait. You're Katy? - Last time I checked.
Hi. I'm Ashley.
No. No, that's not a problem. I'm on it. Yeah.
So, Jake tells me you're a loser.
What? I'm not a loser.
That's cool. I'm a loser too.
Anyway, it's just like a term of affection, not a permanent condition.
- Oh. - You just haven't had any good luck. That's all.
No, no. It's great.
I love these little marshmallow things.
So do I.
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. We'll talk later. All right, sir. Bye.
- [Chuckles] Oh, my God. - Hot.
- What's the problem? - Oh, Phillips wants the new song ready before the concert.
- And? - And we don't have shit.
[Gasps]
I mean shoot. We don't have shoot.
We don't have to tell Aunt Martha about this, do we?
Don't stress it. I'll write you a kick-ass song.
Oh, so you're a... you're a songwriter now? Very funny.
- You could be more supportive. - This is serious.
- This is my life we're... - Guy... Guys...
- No shoot. - No shoot. That...
Uh... I think I can help you out.
What do you have in mind?
Well, I have this friend...
## [Singing]
What a song.
I totally understand. If you don't want to use it, it's cool.
No. No, it's great.
Just a few little adjustments.
Hey, Harry. Double the tempo.
Danny, Tom, why don't you kick it off tight and rough it up a bit?
## [Rock]
## [Singing]
- Ashley. - Yeah?
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
[Screams]
Hey.
So I hear a rumor that, uh, you have another hit for me.
Well, it's, uh... it's rough, but I got a good feeling, sir. Yeah.
Sounds good. Positivity. That's what I like.
Oh, yeah. Congratulations on, uh, selling out.
Selling out?
You mean the Hard Rock? We sold out the Hard Rock?
- I BlackBerried you. - I don't have a BlackBerry.
- Tiffany, get him a BlackBerry. - Yes.
- There's a line around the corner of people just hoping to get in. - Ah?
Hey, hey, hey. I don't hug people, but, look, bro.
You saved my life twice. Once at the masquerade bash and... and now.
L... It was a great night for me too.
I mean, ever since then I've been about the luckiest guy in the world.
- [Chuckles] - Look. Come by my office later.
- It can't be. - I got some ideas.
- [Jake] Okay. - Geez.
Jake. Jake is the guy I kissed at the masquerade bash.
- Uh-uh. - Yes.
- No. - Yes.
Yes! That's great. He's hot.
You don't understand. If I kiss Jake...
it's hello, fabulous carefree life.
And that's a problem?
- Well... - Go.
## [Continues]
- Ashley. - No, no, no.
Um, I have to go now.
- ## [Continues] - Uh, now?
- Whoa! - Oh, my God.
## [Ends]
[Sighs]
- Taxi! - [Tires Screeching]
Sorry. I was just checking something.
[Gasps] Five dollars. Yes.
- Thank you, luck. - Ashley?
Miss Braden.
Listen. I am so sorry for...
- Antonio? - Hey, Ash.
- Hi. - How lucky that we ran into you.
I feel just horrible about those things I said to you.
No. Stop. You were right to blame it all on me.
Then let me blame you for bringing this sweet, wonderful, iron-tushed man into my life.
Yes. We're getting married, baby.
- No way! - It's true. I bought him the ring.
- Well, good for you guys. Congratulations. - Ashley...
I want you to come back to work for me.
- Are you kidding? - I can't lose you. You are my good luck charm.
L... I don't know what to say.
Well, we have a huge pitch tonight. St. Regis at 8:00.
So, say you'll be by my side...
and say you'll be wearing something appropriate to your new vice president title.
Oh, my gosh. Yes. Yes. Thank you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Oh! Yes! My luck is back!
Oh, my God.
- Hello. - [Maggie] Ash?
Anyone want some late lunch?
- Hi. - Hi.
Hey. I have some surprises.
Ta-da! Last one in stock, and just my size. Lucky, huh?
- Yeah. - And I went to Miyakami and got two orders of everything...
'cause I thought we could use a little celebration.
- That's nice. - Oh. Yeah.
What's wrong?
The band isn't gonna do Maggie's song.
What? Why not?
Phillips is superstitious.
- Come on. - He thinks that new groups...
should only perform music that they've written themselves.
- That's crazy. - No. It's just bad luck.
Look. I'm sorry this is happening. I didn't have anything to do with...
Ashley, stop. It's not your fault. It's life. Right?
Come on. We gotta get going. We gotta get there before they go on. I want to wish them luck.
- You're still going? - Oh, yeah. We have V.I.P. Tickets. Why waste 'em? You?
- Um, actually, I'm not. I have, um, a meeting. - [Door Opens]
- Job interview? - Actually, it's a funny story.
- Um, Peggy rehired me. - Ashley.!
I am so proud of you.
You totally stuck it out, and it all got better.
Are you sure you're gonna be okay?
Of course. What choice do I have?
If you dwell on all the bad things in life...
- you miss out on all the good things. - It's getting late.
- Well, have fun. - Good luck on your meeting, Ashley.
Thanks.
Bye.

Hello.
[Crowd Chattering]
And I, for one...
am not looking forward to going out here and telling this angry crowd...
that the band decided not to play.
Oh. That won't be me.
That's gonna be you.
Unless you get your boys out there now.!
Mr. Phillips, without a... a drummer?
- No way. - It won't work.
Hey, guys. I used to be the, uh, backup drummer for, uh, Whitesnake.
- [All Groan] - [Phillips] Whitesnake? Hell, yeah.!
- There you go. Here's your drummer. - Wait a minute.
- We're not gonna go out there without Harry. - [Tom] It's not gonna happen.
McFly doesn't play...
you'll be lucky enough to manage...
- a high school marching band. - [Ashley]Jake.
- Get out of the way. - We got a problem. We need a new band.
- Cancel the limo. - Get out of the way, please. All right. Now go.
Ashley, now's not a...
- What the hell is this? - [Together] Shh!
And in nine, eight, seven...
- Oh, no. - Who hit the smoke?
Five, four, three...
Whoa. [Coughing]
Two...
Whoa.
Is that... Is that Harry?
[Chuckles Nervously]
[Woman] Get started, baby.!
We're on. We're on.
- No way. The freak went on without us. - [Mouthing Words]
I don't believe it.
Hey. Do me a favor.
- Play Maggie's song. - Absolutely.
Hey. Let's kick it off with "I've Got You."
Yeah. Definitely. Come on. Let's go.
- [Doug] Phillips is gonna be pissed. - [Danny] Who cares?
- [Woman Shouts] - [Crowd Cheering]
Harry. Harry, we're playing "I've Got You."

Ashley. Thank you.
You're welcome.
- Are you okay? - Yeah. Yeah. I'm okay.
Oh, I'm proud of you.
## [Singing]
- Katy! - Yes!
- They're great! - It's good!
Danny! Whoo!
I thought I told you not to play this song.
Well, I guess I'm not superstitious.
But I am.
I should fire you, Jake.
But it works.
It works. Good job.
Thank you.
## [Singing Continues]
They're playing my song!
## [Ends]
- Whoo! - [Both] Whoo!
Is that the sound of them clapping...
- or my nervous system shutting down? - No. They're clapping.
Hello, Times Square!
[Cheering]
[Laughing]
- Congratulations! - Ashley, thank you!
- [Danny] Great to be here, everybody. - ## [Rock]
## [Singing]
Oh. Who wants to meet my friend Mr. Dom Perignon?
- That would be the '94? - Yeah!
- The '95.! Yeah, baby.! [Laughing] - Yeah. That's okay.
All right, guys. Champagne time.! Everybody.
McFly on three. On three. Champagne time.
One... Help me out. One, two, three!
- McFly! - [Groans]
[All Shouting]
All right. Danny. Everybody. Get over here. Come on.
[Phillips] Come on. Come on. Let's go, baby.
Ashley.
- Come on. Let's go celebrate. - Hey. Um, not now.
What's wrong with you? You look miserable.
[Chuckles]
[Sighs] Maggie, I think I've fallen for him.
[Shouts]
That's great. What's the matter with that?
I don't know. I mean, the feelings I have generally lead toward kissing.
So kiss him. Kiss him!
I can't.
Oh, Ash.
Please don't tell me you still believe in that stuff.
More than ever.
And I can't not kiss him.
- I gotta go. - What? Where are you going?
Grand Central.
I'm gonna visit my parents for a bit.
I have to sort things out. Give me a hug, you.
Have fun, okay? And be careful.
Okay.
Bye.
Gather round. Gather round.

[Man On P.A., Indistinct]
Of course.
[Jake] You waitirfor a train?
I'm just saying if you are, you might as well give up now.
- Jake, please. - With your luck...
there's gonna be an announcement that due to some freak accident all trains have been canceled.
Then you're gonna go outside and wait for the bus...
at which point the acid rain will commence... perhaps even acid hail. [Chuckles]
Listen, Jake. I can't see you. Okay? It's for your own good.
Luck changes, Ashley.
You know?
You know, l... I kissed this amazing girl at this masquerade party.
No. Listen. I swear I'm not crazy, okay? Our luck did get switched.
And it still is. Here. I dare you not to win.
So you think meeting me was unlucky?
No. God, I'm lucky to have met you.
Okay? But you deserve my luck.
- You put it to better use than I ever did. - Well, I don't want it anymore.
- Are you crazy? - I want you to have it.
- No. Go away. - It's been great...
but I'll be fine without it.
How do you know that?
Because I'll have you in my life.
A few bumps and bruises along the way are a small price to pay.
Tag. You're it.
[Chuckles]
Oh, no. You're not gettir away with it that easy.
- Oh, yeah? - Not a chance.
So now who?
[Mumbles] Who cares?
Ew! Gross!
You leave a kid sitting in a limo so you can make out?
You take me from a perfectly good party with really cute rock stars...
I pop a shoelace, swallow my gum...
and now I'm stuck here watching you two play tonsil hockey.
- Good grief! - Katy.
I am so glad you're here.
Why are you guys looking at me like this?
- Hold still. Mmm! Mmm! Mmm! - [Groaning]
[Groans] Oh, I've been slimed!
- Try this. You'll like it. - It's fun.
Cool.
- So, where were we just, like... - [Chuckles]
- Ow. - Ow.
Twenty-five bucks? No freakirway. I'm rich.!
Oh, yeah! I'm rich!
I'm taking the limo, okay? This I gotta show Grams.
I definitely hit the jackpot.
- Hey, Bernie.! - Thank you.
She deserves it.
- Pizza? - You're on.
So, you think you can adjust to life without luck?
- Right now I've never felt luckier. - Me too.
- Do you believe in karma? - Karma? Ash, you kidding me?
One time I helped an old lady across the street. Next day, I found a hundred-dollar bill.
- Ash, that's luck. - Karma.
- It's luck. - Karma, karma, karma.
- Luck, luck, luck. - It's karma.
- It's luck. - Get the door.
Why, thank you. [Chuckles]
Hey. [Chuckles] Quarter.
Hmm. Seems we still have our luck.
- Who cares? - Absolutely.
[Man] Hey! Shut the valve! The pipe is broken.
