Laurie and Alex seem made for each other and become engaged. When Barney comes into the picture to help Alex with some musical arrangements matters become complicated.

We used them just about an hour ago.

- [ Stephen ] What happened?

- Going through a red light.

[ Laughing ]

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

[ Stephen Narrating ]

The following morning...

I drop in on Stan to see how he's

getting on with "I Feel Good"...

a song which, by all accounts,

he seems to have really taken to heart.

- I feel nice -

- Like sugar and spice -

-- [ Continues ]

- So nice, so nice -

- Ive got you -

- - Yeah --

- -- [ Ends ]

[ Stephen Laughing ]

So, do you think you're in tune?

[ Clears Throat ]

Well, you tell me.

- -- [ Snare Drum Hit ]

- - I feel good -

- Nice. Nice.

- [ Chattering ]

- - Like I know I should -

- Nice! Nice! Sugar and spice.

- I feel good -

N ice! No, you see-

I think he's thinks Im telling him "nice."

"I feel nice. " Okay.

You caught me on a roll.

No, it's "I feel nice. "

[ Narrator]

"I Feel Good" is rapidly shaping up...

to be one of Bob's

biggest headaches.

Stans got the rhythm

but cant get the words.

- Dora knows the words but cant get the rhythm.

- You have the " I got you."

- I feel good -

[ Bob ]

- So good -

- - I need -

- Whoo!

[ Laughing ]

[ Bob ]

It's "So good, so good, I got you. "

I got you. Here, you can have that.

Ready? That was so close.

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

[ Man ] What do you love

about Young A t Heart?

- Or do you love-

- Oh, I do! I do. I wouldn't be here if I didn't.

Uh, I mean, this-

And this goes back to way before

we even started going to Europe.

I mean, that's a- that's icing on the cake,

but the cake was there before.

You forget all about...

the creaky bones and...

the knee, the hips,

the shoulders, the fingers.

- Shakespeare's sonnets.

- [ Stephen ] You're a bit of a

culture vulture, aren't you?

I guess you could

call me a culture vulture.

So what are you doing singing punk songs

and rock songs and God knows what?

Well, Im trying to-

[ Laughs ]

I don't know if this will do it,

but Im trying to expand my horizons.

Its kind of fun when you blend together

and you make that big sound.

Sort of makes you

feel good to be part of it.

What a nice bunch of people they are.

You know?

And I say to myself,

they are a caring group of people...

including our director, Bob Cilman.

It's, um, all keeping

your brain going, you know.

It's true-

If you don't use it, you lose it.

[ Sneezes ]

- [ Woman ] Bless you.

- Excuse me. Thank you.

That's the first blessing I get today.

[ Laughs ]

[ Stephen Narrating ]

Bob has come up with the idea...

of bringing back two former members

of the chorus for the show.

Both of them had to leave

because of ill health.

His plan is to give them the Coldplay song

"Fix You" to sing as a duet.
