Unstop...pable.
[ Clears Throat ] When she wakes up, I wanna see her.
Well, let's go for a coffee.
You know what's happening here? You're being colonized.
- What? - Colonized. It's like- It's like in the old days.
When the French and the English would go into Asia and Africa...
and they'd raise their flags and they'd impose their culture and they'd colonize.
It's like, Sarah, when you cutyour hair off because that guy liked short hair.
Wait a minute. I mean, you guys are married.
Isn't that a part ofit, accommodating each other?
You know, how many kids are we gonna have?
Where are we gonna live? Whatpizza place are we gonna orderfrom?
Doesn't it require some pliability?
Because maybe that's something I've been lacking in my life.
Isn't it affecting yourwork?
No, not so much.
You know what I just realized?
You're rooting for her relationship to fail.
- No. - What?
- That's right. - Whywould I do that?
Never mind.
No. No, come on, tell me.
All right. You and Lindsey are both very competitive, especiallywith each other.
- She's more competitive than I am. - I am not.
And when you were both starting out, you were the more successful one.
But now Lindsey's career has skyrocketed, so she's more successful.
But you've had the personal success, the marriage.
And if Lindsey gets that too, then she's definitely the winner...
soyou're rooting against her.

But between you and me, I was ready to wash his balls.
Yeah, see, that joke's not fun for me.
[ Giggles ] I'm sorry. Let me explain.
There is this European company that we're trying to make a deal with, okay?
And what they do- You know what?
The point is they're sending me to Paris to close the deal.
- Wow! - And I am taking vous.
- Moi? - Oui!
Taking me to Paris?
Oh, this is gonna be so great.
Okay, I'm gonna cash in my first-class ticket and get two seats.
All you have to do, Mr. Wrightman, is call in sick tomorrow...

- Mm-hmm. - This weekend? It's now?
Yeah, we'll fly back Sunday afternoon, but with the time change...
you'll be back at work on Monday morning.
Oh, yeah, uh, I-I gotta be honest.
This isn't the best weekend for me. I'm kind of swamped.
Oh, no. Doyou have a lot ofwork?
Uh, we're two games out offirst, with three weeks left.
Seattle's coming in this weekend, and, I mean-
This is when they need me.
They need you?
Wait a second. I was just thinking about it. That's all.
A tip, Ben. When your girlfriend says, "Let's go to Paris for the weekend," you go.
All right, all right. I'll go. I'll go.
You'll go? You know what? I have a better idea. I think I'll take him.
Hey.Just slow down a second, okay?
Just go and enjoyyour ball game.
You know, this is the second day in a row you've snapped at me.
- I'm late. - Fine. Go.
No, Ben.
I'm late.
How- How late?
Um, a week and a half.
Okay. That's not that late. Right?
No. It is for me.
Okay. Well, you know what? I mean, we're not the first people to-

- You know. - Deep breaths, Ben.
[ Clears Throat ] Yeah. Why-Why didn't you say something?
Why? So we could both freak out?
I mean, I wanted to wait for the right moment.
And then when this trip came up, I thought...
we'll go to Paris, and I'll tell you there...
because that did seem special.
But, no, you don't see us tangled up in the sheets with the Eiffel Tower in the window.
You see the Mariners are coming and Pedro's pitching Friday night.
[ Mumbles ] Saturday. Schilling's on Friday.
Look. I- I admit I should have reacted differently.
Ifl ever build a time machine, that's the first place I'm going back to.
I'll be like, "Paris, whoo! I'm in."
Uh, I- Really, I'm sorry.
That's all right.
[ Sighs ] But I have a 4:00 flight that I have to catch.
All right. I can pack my bags. We can put some stufftogether. We can make this.

IfI'm with a guy for 1 1 months...
and I think I might be having his child...
I'm gonna ask myself, "Is this the guy?"
Andifit is, "What's this going to be like?"
You know, ifwe're to be Mr. and Mrs. Ben and Lindsey, how's this going to work?
It's like Robin's birthday party.
The minute I got the invitation, I had to run to the refrigerator and check the Red Sox schedule.
And the Yankees are playing, so I know I 'm going stag.
And that's okay. I 'm fine with that. But how far does it go?
You know, "Grandma, don't die because...
"the Red Sox are going out on the road...
so please wait until they come back to die."
And, "Doctor, induce labor because the Oakland A's are coming in tomorrow."
Doyou remember last winter?
This is exactly whatyou likedabout me.
That I was capable ofhaving a passionate commitment with something. Uh, a devotion.
Yes, but you feel it for the Red Sox, and I was hoping that someday...
you might redirect that.

Since I... got pregnant.
[ All Gasp ]
- Molly. - I knew it!
- You did not. - Mm-hmm.
I told Lindsey. I said, "Her boobs look engorged." Was Steve excited?
Areyou kidding? He ran out and bought him- her-
- a little train engineer hat. - [Cell Phone Rings ]
- Oh, I'm sorry. - They do that, don't they? Little hats-
- Hello. It's Chris! - You gotta come with me.
- Molly's pregnant. - Mr. Myerson just announced you got the promotion.
- Oh, God! Sorry. - Oh, my God. Now my breasts are engorged.
- That was Lindsey. She got her promotion. - [ Carrie ] He's waiting.
He's holding champagne. Everybody's got a glass. I told him you're in the ladies' room.
Oh. Thankyou. Okay. [ Laughs ]
Well-Wait. I gotta- I'm so sorry. I gotta go.
Go, go.
- I gotta go. - Guess what Chris is doing right now.
He's buying Ben's baseball tickets.
What?
Ben is selling Chris his Red Sox tickets.
- Lindsey, please. Let's go! - Wait. You mean, like, um, for today.
No. I mean, like, forever. For 1 25,000, it better be forever.
Are you guys that rich?
Yeah.
Why don't you dress better?
Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Ben- my Ben- is selling his Red Sox seats?
To hell with the seats. They're holding champagne.
Come on.
- [ Crowd ] Let's go, Red Sox! - [ Clapping ]
Let's go, Red Sox!
You know, whatyou're doing is illegal.
That's right. Technically, ifyou give up your tickets...
you're supposed to give 'em to the Red Sox.
Hey. We're friends. Okay? They'll still be in his name.
They'll mail them to him, then he'll give them to me.
- Does the guywith the big squash always sit in front ofyou? - He's new.
I don't know. You want the tickets or not?
- Come on. Ow! - Shame on you.
Your Uncle Carl saw 3,000 games from these seats.
He's gonna come back and hauntyou for this.
- [Applause ] - [Man ]Speech!
Let's go. Come on.
Well, first, thankyou, Mr. Myerson.
Um- [ Clears Throat]
The truth is I- I like it here.
I like this work.
I know what I'm doing when I'm here.
I n fact, it's the only place...
where I know what I'm doing.
This is, uh, controllable.
It's safe.
Oh, my God.
He's selling his Red Sox tickets for me.
What have I ever given up for anybody that meant that much?
I'm sorry. I know this seems crazy, but I gotta go.
You realizeyou're sellingyourseats for exactly the same price theysold Babe Ruth for.
You said it yourself. Relationships come and go, but the Red Sox are forever.
I want my sponges back.
- Wouldyou be selling these tickets ifwe were winning? - I bet you wouldn't.
We're never winning. That's the point.
We're down three games to nothing. It's 4-3.
They got Rivera warming up in the bull pen. Look.
[Man On P.A.] Designatedhitter. Number 18.
John Olerud.
Look. If I keep these seats...
all I'll think about every time I'm here is-
is what I gave up for them.
[ Tires Squeal ]
[ Tires Screech ]
Excuse me. Is there a ticket window somewhere?
- Sold out, sweetie. It's the play-offs. - All right.
- Hey. Hey. You need tickets? - Oh. You too.
No, no. I got tickets.
- We-Then why the sign? - That's for the cops.
Everybody knows when you say you need tickets, means you have tickets.
- Okay. I need a ticket. - Calm down. I got two. 300 apiece.
- What? - Hey. The only reason they're that cheap...
- is because it's the eighth inning. - Fine.
- I'll take one. - I can't split 'em up.
- Thankyou. - Hey, hey. You know what?
Sinceyou only need the one ticket, I'll buy the other one back for, like, 50 bucks.
Oh, okay. That sounds good. Oops.
Enjoy the game.
- [ Cheering] - Ben, how do you know she'll even take you back?
It's- It's not just for her, okay? It's also for me, okay?
I gotta get mylife in order. Some perspective.
- Some balance. - Hey. We've got a deal.
I'll buyyour seats.
It's a real ticket.
Oh, it's a real ticket, but you're at the wrong entrance.
- You're way over in center field. - I just gotta get in for a minute-
- That's a ploy. I know it's a ploy. You're in center field. - Fine.
[ManAnnouncing] Groundball to the right side.
A race to the bag. Rivera is there.
And the Yankees are three defensive outs away from the World Series.
Into the ninth.
Excuse me.
Excuse me. Ooh. Sorry.
- Excuse me. - [ Woman ] Watch it.
Excuse me. Sorry.
- Can I borrow these for a second? Thank you. - Yeah.
Sure.
No.
Why don't you have a cell phone, you idiot?
Sign by the red tab. Initial by the yellow tabs.
What are you buying, the stadium? Look at that thing.
Floyd the Barber, we're not in Mayberry, okay? Thankyou.
Hey. Down in front. Come on, sweetie.
Hold your horses, buddy.
[ Panting ]
Robin. Wait. No. I can't talk right now.
Listen. I just need Chris's cell phone number.
[ Scoffs ]
- [ Cell Phone Rings ] - That's odd.
You're having a stroke. Good.
I don't want to talk now. I'm at the ball game.
- Chris! - [ Beeps Off]
Damn it!
[Sheri] Ben, come on.
- Don't do it. - This is crazy.
Think about it, Ben.
Check's all made out.
I'll inviteyou to some ofthe games.
I'm sorry, Uncle Carl.

- Yes. To stop you. - What?
- You're out ofhere. -Just give me a second, okay? Just give me a second. Please!
You gotta tell me. Wait. The outfield- the grass- is it spongy?
- Ben, focus. - Sorry.
These seats are important to you, okay? This is your summer family, your Uncle Carl.
- You love these seats. - No. I fell in love with this when I was seven...
because I had nothing else.
Now I'm in love with you. I don't need this.
I don't want this.
Wait. Wait, wait, wait.
You love me enough to sell your tickets.
I loveyou enough not to letyou.
What doyou say we try to do all ofit?
Let's try to jerk one out ofthe park.
That's the sexiest thing I've ever heard in my life.
Ma'am, you're gonna have to come with me.

[ Man Announcing ] Boston Red Sox have won the pennant!
[Al] So what am I saying? That it was all karma because Lindsey came back to Ben?
Look. All I know is, when the Red Sox went to St. Louis for the Series...
me and the girls andArtie told them...
"You two gotta be there to keep this thing goin'."
กำกำ [ Continues ]
And they went, and lo and behold-
[ Man Announcing ] Back to Foulke. Red Sox fans have longed to hear it.
The Boston Red Sox are world champions.
[Al Narrating ] And that night there was a blue moon and a total eclipse.
And those are the facts.

You know that little player to be named later?
