What are you talking about? Don't you remember a few weeks ago when I asked you if you had a date for the prom, and you said, "No," and I said, "Great"? Don't you remember? There must've been a misunderstanding.

All I can remember is being in the back of the limo with Karen Uzelle.
Barbie Feldman.

All right.
For the reason of Of tiredness and it's been a very long journey.
So, then you want a bed.
Yes! Uh, but, I mean, it doesn't always have to be a bed.
We could do some dancing first.
So, will you want a king-size bed or two doubles? What What would you recommend for someone such as me? Well, have you ever been tired before? Uh, no, actually.
This is This is my first time ever being tired.
And exactly how tired are you? Well, let's put it this way.
If I don't get a room real soon, I may fall asleep right here.
Yes.
Well, we wouldn't want that to happen.
So, one room, one bed, one big night.
Yes.
Name? Why? I mean, why do you need that? I just need a name to put in the computer.
Any name.
Any name will do.
Oh, this is silly.

Just give me the card! Well, I Room 702 for the former Senor Quixote and currently Eric Matthews.
But I suppose a man of your ilk has many names.
Thanks, chief.
And now there are no more obstacles to Cory Matthews' big night.
Alan This is so romantic.
We haven't spent the night at a hotel since our prom night.
Well, we may not get a chance to do something like this again for a long time.
Which I couldn't be happier about.
Wait a minute.
I got a great idea.
You check in, then meet me in the lounge, and we'll pretend we don't know each other.
I'll be Shavaughn.
Ooh, you are bad! Well, I'll see you later, Shavaughn.
Quick, I need a room.
In a hurry.
Oh, the voice of experience.
My wife and I are celebrating.
We're having a baby.
I'm going to be a father.
Which I couldn't be happier about! Well, congratulations! Daddy Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Jack! Jack! My father just checked into a hotel room with a woman who is not his wife or my mother.
You're crazy.
Your father's happily married.
I just saw it with my own eyes! Prom fever.
What? Prom fever.
It makes every man go crazy on prom night.
We can't even remember our own proms 'cause we were so obsessed with what might happen after.
I got to save these kids.
And I got to save my father.
You are the best dancer.
I mean, you could be a professional.
All right, where do you think you're sneaking off to? The bathroom? Nice try.
I wasn't born yesterday.
Now get back in there to the only prom you're ever going to have.
I must say, Jack, you're a much better chaperone than I thought you'd be.
No one gets by.
Attaboy.
Good soldier.
Come on, come on, come on.
Yes! It works! I did it! Wait a minute.
What am I forgetting? The girl.
May I have your attention, please? It's time to announce your prom king and queen.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Cory Matthews and Topanga Lawrence! What a surprise.
Here we go.
Lovely.
You told them? Come on.
Come on.
All right, where do you think you two are going? So What do you want to do? Hello? Hotel man! Hi.
I need to know what room Mr.
Matthews is in, please.
Pronto.
I'm sorry.
We don't give out that kind of information.
Really? Well Perhaps my friend Mr.
Washington will help change your mind? Ooh! So You want to see something I've always wanted to do? Yeah.
So, what are you going to do? Hi, there.
Hi, there.
Don't hurt me! Listen, do you think it's rushing it if I take off my jacket? Because I won't take off my jacket if you think it's rushing.
Okay, okay.
Come here.
Topanga, I'm stuck.
I'm stuck.
Well, maybe if I unbutton this Wait, I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to see this part.
Topanga, put it back.
It's the vice squad! Okay! Don't do this! The tramp isn't worth it! Hey, Topanga.
Hi, Cory.
Good, you guys got here first.
Where's Dad? Eric, do you not see this? Wait a second.
The guy said this was the Matthews' room.
It is.
Now get out! It's just you and Topanga? Yes.
Alone in a hotel room? Yes.
On prom night? Yes! So What you doin'? Okay, that's enough.
Goodbye, Eric.

The other Mr.
Matthews, the cheating Mr.
Matthews I used to be proud to call my daddy.
What room is he in? What room is he in? What room is he in, huh? I'm afraid Mr.
Washington has received all the information that Mr.
Washington is going to get.
Now, if Mr.
Franklin were asking Ah.
Well.

Franklin isn't here, but how about two Mr.
Lincolns And a mystery bag? Maybe it's good.
Maybe it's not.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
Cory? What? Do you love me? I just came to tell you I won't be needing a ride home.
This is Jan from the Hertz Rent-a-Car counter.
She says I resemble her ex-husband Murray.
Quick.
Let's get this over with before Feeny gets here.
You want to get this over with? Oh, no, no, no! I didn't mean it like that.
I just mean We don't need any more interruptions, you know? We've been waiting for everything to be exactly, perfectly right, and now it is, so Maybe we need to be more spontaneous.
Not when we think we have to, like, one day on the way home from the library.
What, do you want a book? Here! Here! Here's a book! I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
And it's just starting to get dark, and you hold me because I'm cold.
And we look into each other's eyes and we just know.
Maybe that's when it happens.
When? When? When? Cory, I want to.
When? That's why we're here.
When? I'll do whatever you think is right.
When? I'm just so confused.
Listen, you don't have to be confused, okay? We're adults now, and adults do not get confused.
You're right.
We're adults.
Let's go.
Ow, my eye! My eye! Ow! Oh, God! Let me look at your eye No, don't worry about it.
I've got another eye.
Just do everything on my right side.
No, no, no.
You need to get some ice.
No! Come on Ow! Gosh! Cory, get some ice! I'm not going anywhere, and we have all night.
Okay.
Oh, and bring back a couple of sodas.
I'll be right back, Shavaughn.
Yes! Honey, I'm back.
Come on out.
Don't be shy, Shavaughn.
Let me see what's behind that door.
Yes! Honey? You like? Thought you can get away with it, didn't you? How could you do this to my mother? Uh, well, um Nobody planned this.
I mean, it wasn't something we planned on.
It just kind of happened, you know.
It was like one of those wonderful miracles that's happened to me three times before already.
You don't even live in the house anymore! It's not like I'm asking you to give up your room.
Wait a second.
You're moving her into the house? I can't do this anymore.
I got to know who's in there.
Come out! Now! Topanga? Oh, Daddy! How could you do this to Mom and Cory? Oh.
I am so out of the loop.
Wait a minute.
What are you guys doing here? Well We're celebrating! We were going to tell you tomorrow, but We're having a baby! You're having a baby? We're having a baby! They're having a baby! I'm going to be an uncle! So, you're having another kid? Yes, we are, and we're thrilled about it.
Is this something you planned? No, Cory, it isn't, you know.
It's like I told you before.
Sometimes things can happen in a minute that will change your life forever.
We're just lucky that for us, it came at a time when we can handle it.
Have a nice night, you two.
