In fact, I'm going to erase

your name from my diary.

You know, Judy, sometimes

I think you don't like me at all.

- Good evening.

- Oh, Mr. Cugat.

I thought maybe

I got in the wrong place, no?

Oh, no, this is the right place.

Come with me.

I'll introduce you around.

- There's some other old people here too.

- Oh?

Who's the young man Judy's with?

His name's Stephen Andrews.

He works at Scully's drugstore.

Nice-looking fellow.

Yes, I supposed one might say that he is.

I'm sorry my father isn't here tonight.

He promised he'd try to come.

Well, you know how businessmen are.

Sometimes it's very hard to find time

to go to a high school dance.

You always seem to find time,

Mr. Foster.

Oh, that's because I guess I'm curious.

I want to know what's going on.

I think it's very nice...

...having someone who wants

to know what's going on.

Just the opposite in our family.

My father never knows what's going on.

Of course, he's extremely busy man.

Oh, of course he is, yes.

Sometimes I wish...

Sometimes I wish he weren't so busy.

Will you excuse me?

I'm sure Ogden needs me.

Mr. Cugat, this is my mother and father,

Mr. And Mrs. Foster.

How do you do, Mr. Cugat?

Nice to meet you.

Hello, Mr. Cugat. Won't you sit down?

Thank you, I will.

My daughter, Judy,

is a great admirer of yours.

- So is her mother.

- Well, thank you, thank you.

That's a charming compliment

from two very charming ladies.

They're playing that especially for you,

Mr. Cugat.

Melvin.

Aren't you going to dance with me?

What? A man of my age get out there...

...and make a fool of himself

like those jack-in-the-boxes?

Well, you could do

a more dignified version, dear.

Dora, look, I've been a faithful husband

to you for 19 years, haven't I?

Twenty. It's our anniversary next week.

Remember, dear?

- A good provider?

- Yes.

- Satisfactory father to the children?

- Yes.

Then please don't ask me to rumba.

If you don't mind, Senor Foster...

...perhaps your wife

will do the rumba with me?

Oh, sure, go ahead and ask her.

You won't have to coax her.

Thank you, Mr. Cugat. I'd love it.

It's a shame

Mother has to dance by herself.

- Judy?

- Yes, Father?

I don't wanna hear another word

about me learning to do that rumba.

Yes, Father.

But I would like to hear who

the young man was you were dancing with.

Well, that's my dream man.

What about Oogie?

Oh, I just gave him up forever

for a little while.

- Oh, I see.

- Would you like to meet Stephen?

Well, I believe it's customary.

If you can get him away

from Mitzi there.

So that's what happens

when my back is turned.

Excuse me, Father.

Mitzi, dear, Oogie wants you.

Oh, well, tell him I'm busy right now.
