a question?Sure.

Does this ticket haveto be

for this afternoon?

That was prepared for anytime you want

to use it. Did you want to change it?

Well, i was just thinking,

it's so silly.

I-I've never been to paris,

and maybe i should do some sightseeing.

Sightseeing? In paris?

What a bizarre notion.

W-What do you got here?

What have we got here?Yeah.

You got anything?

We got some stuff.Yeah? Like

what kind of stuff?

Would you like to see

the eiffel tower?That's here?

He keeps delaying his flight;

he starts buying outfits.

He doesn't wanna leave.

I find it a lot

like new york,

But really,

totally different.

Did you always

wanna be a referee?

No, i started out as a player.

Oh.

What are you looking at?No, i just...

What, that i'm

vertically challenged?

The best place for me

to ref a game...

Is madison square garden

in new york.

Wasn't it a soccer game a few years

back where the referee got killed?

Yeah, see,

i'm against that.Good for you. Take a stand.

Do you ever get back

to the new world?

Every year i visit

my father in wichita.

I bet his name is red and he

caps oil well fires, right?

No, his name is arthur

and he owned a pet store.That was my next guess.

When you dream, do you dream

in french or english?French.

With english

You got kids over here, 2, 3 years old,

and they're already speaking french.

Rodin never said

what he was thinking.

I think he's thinking,

"Goddamn, rodin,

three drinks and i'm nude!"

What can you say?

It was paris.

You got great stuff.

Got it!

Hey, do you know

where we are?

Yeah, we're on the seine

This bridge

An american in paris?Gene kelly,

leslie caron.

This is the bridge!

This is very exciting for me!

Well, come on,

sing the rest.

Sing? No, i c...

i can't. No.

With my voice the cops will

come with those sirens...

They'll put me

in singing jail.

it's

very clear

our love is here to stay

not for a year

but forever and a day

in time

the rockies may crumble

gibraltar may tumble now you're going to tell me

you're leaving, right?

they're only made of clay

The season starts monday,

and i have to get back.
