00:00:19A
00:00:21A
00:00:23A
00:00:25A
00:02:29That's me.
00:02:29My name's Melanie.
00:02:30My friends call me Mel.
00:02:33That's my sister Allison, a.k.a. Allison.
00:02:36And this is junior high, where we spend approximately 30% of our waking hours and 4% of our sleeping hours.
00:02:48And don't get me wrong, we study a lot of important subjects.
00:02:54For example, there's science.
00:02:57Say for yourself.
00:02:59It's true.
00:03:01Kelly has split ends.
00:03:03Then there's English.
00:03:04She was totally edging on my squeeze.
00:03:06So I dinged her with a bounce bounce in the numbers lab.
00:03:10And then, there's creative writing.
00:03:12And finally, that most important of important subjects, the staple of every 7th grader's education, social studies.
00:03:28Shane and Kyle, the most popular boys in Northwood Junior High.
00:03:33At least this week.
00:03:37Enter Helene and Darlene, cheerleaders.
00:03:41Enough said.
00:03:41I wish they'd ask us to the spring fling dance.
00:03:47Yeah, well, we can't get near them with Tweedledum and Tweedledummer around.
00:03:51Kyle, let's snack some lime slime.
00:03:53Dude!
00:03:57But, if you can't beat them, mess with their heads.
00:04:02It's super top secret.
00:04:06Come on, Mel.
00:04:07I promise not to tell anybody.
00:04:09Well, I heard five kids went home sick today after eating the meatloaf.
00:04:16The meat was so bad, it had E. coli and F. coli.
00:04:22Did it have those little white worms?
00:04:25No, those brown squishy worms.
00:04:28Like this one, over here.
00:04:35It worked.
00:04:37Hey, Mel.
00:04:37Hey, Mel.
00:04:39Hey, Allie.
00:04:40Hey.
00:04:41I'm Melanie, that's Allie.
00:04:42Oh, right.
00:04:45Warm?
00:04:46Gross out candy, cool.
00:04:48You guys are all right.
00:04:49Thanks.
00:04:49Thanks.
00:05:01Mmm, great dinner, Mom.
00:05:02Where's the fire?
00:05:04I have to call Hannah.
00:05:05After I call Jenna.
00:05:07Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on.
00:05:08Don't you guys have something else to do tonight?
00:05:10Besides talk on the phone?
00:05:13Like what?
00:05:14Um, a little thing we used to call homework.
00:05:17Oh, we already did it.
00:05:18Oh, we already did it.
00:05:20Swear.
00:05:20We do math homework during science.
00:05:22And science during English.
00:05:23And everything else during social studies.
00:05:25That class is so S&C.
00:05:27S&C?
00:05:30Snooze and cruise.
00:05:32Talk about a Boer War.
00:05:33It's totally...
00:05:34Shh.
00:05:36Shh.
00:05:36If we were running the world, there'd be no wars.
00:05:43That's for sure.
00:05:44There'd be so many pool parties, and everybody would be in a great mood.
00:05:48Nobody likes to fight in a bikini.
00:05:52Uh-uh-uh.
00:05:53Mine.
00:05:57Okay, who'd you rather kiss?
00:05:59Kyle or Leonardo DiCaprio?
00:06:03Get out.
00:06:04He does too shower.
00:06:05They're turning 13 next month.
00:06:08And their world is the size of a pinhead.
00:06:11I heard they're opening up a Mac store at the mall.
00:06:13Right next to Kenneth Cole.
00:06:14Well, I don't think QCC likes...
00:06:16I think a pinhead is bigger.
00:06:18Honey, I don't know what more we can expect from them.
00:06:21They're both getting straight A's.
00:06:23But it's not about grades, Jack.
00:06:26It's about life.
00:06:28And there's more to the world than call waiting and a day at the mall.
00:06:33It's up to us to show them.
00:06:35Okay.
00:06:37What do you have in mind?
00:06:40In 1805, Napoleon upgraded the sewers so that he could claim France had the most advanced water system in the world.
00:06:46The time between his escape from Elba to his ultimate defeat at Waterloo was called the Hundred Days because it took, well, a hundred days.
00:06:56In 1815, after his exile to Elba, Napoleon sadly disappeared from the world stage.
00:07:03Napoleon died on May 5th, 1821.
00:07:05Hmm, what have we here?
00:07:15Mel, how about Shane and me take you and Al to Spring Fling Dance?
00:07:20Hmm.
00:07:20Well, Melanie, what do you have to say for yourself?
00:07:28Definitely.
00:07:28Thursday, Margie's beach party.
00:07:37Friday, Hannah's pool party.
00:07:39And Saturday, Spring Fling with gorgeous Shane.
00:07:42And perfect Kyle.
00:07:44And that's still at least time for hanging at the mall.
00:07:47Why can't it be spring break all year round?
00:07:53Knock, knock.
00:07:53Now, wait a minute.
00:07:58You guys are supposed to say who's there.
00:08:02Uh, Dad, we're a little old for knock, knock jokes.
00:08:05Yeah, but it's so barmy.
00:08:07Then I guess you're too old for presents.
00:08:09No, presents!
00:08:10No, presents!
00:08:12Okay.
00:08:19Camera?
00:08:20Passport?
00:08:20Where are we going?
00:08:21Paris?
00:08:24We're going to Paris?
00:08:25You're going to Paris?
00:08:26We're going to Paris!
00:08:28When are we going to Paris?
00:08:31Next week over spring break.
00:08:33No!
00:08:39In 1815, after his exile to Elba, Napoleon sadly disappeared from the world stage.
00:08:45Napoleon also had plans to...
00:08:47We wanted to go to Paris.
00:08:48Really, we did.
00:08:49We were just majorly bummed about missing the dance.
00:08:53Anyway, we sent notes to Kyle and Shane, explaining why we had to bail.
00:08:58They were bummed too.
00:09:01For about a millisecond.
00:09:03They didn't even wait an hour before asking Helene and Darlene to the dance.
00:09:11Forget Kyle and Shane.
00:09:13I can't believe we even like those dorks.
00:09:15They couldn't even tell us apart.
00:09:17I guess.
00:09:19It's just that I thought that Shane was going to be my first real boyfriend.
00:09:22Wait, what if we don't get asked out again until we're like 20?
00:09:29We'll do what everyone else does.
00:09:31Blame our parents.
00:09:32Hey, hey.
00:09:39How's the packing coming?
00:09:43What can I say?
00:09:44We're teenagers.
00:09:49Grandpa is sending a car to pick you up at the airport.
00:09:51I can't believe we have to spend a whole week with Grandpa Edward.
00:09:55He's so strict.
00:09:56I know.
00:09:57You might as well just send us to prison.
00:09:58It's probably a lot cheaper.
00:10:00Look.
00:10:02I know your grandpa is not great with you girls.
00:10:04Mom, that's like saying the Titanic's not great with icebergs.
00:10:08Okay.
00:10:10Okay.
00:10:12Try to understand.
00:10:13Come here.
00:10:15Try to understand.
00:10:17Your grandfather is the ambassador to France.
00:10:21He's a very, very busy man.
00:10:24And he loves you both very much.
00:10:26He just sometimes forgets to show it.
00:10:32I'm sorry you're going to miss the dance.
00:10:35But there will be others.
00:10:36I promise.
00:10:40I love you.
00:10:41I love you too.
00:10:42Love you.
00:10:48I get window seat.
00:10:49No, you always get window seat.
00:10:51Do not.
00:10:51Do too.
00:10:52Mel.
00:10:53Mel, do you have the...
00:10:54Passports?
00:10:56Allie, do you have the...
00:10:57Tickets?
00:10:58Mom, don't worry.
00:11:00We're like 13.
00:11:01We're not kids anymore.
00:11:06You're on my side of the car.
00:11:13And lots are too.
00:11:14I'm worried.
00:11:16What about them?
00:11:18About Paris.
00:11:19It was a long flight.
00:11:28Welcome to American Airlines.
00:11:30Our flight today will be cruising at an altitude of 35,000 feet.
00:11:34Bienvenue sur American Airlines.
00:11:36Nous volons aujourd'hui à une altitude de croisière de 12,000 mètres.
00:11:39Allie and I talked most of the way.
00:11:45And then we fell asleep.
00:11:47By the time we woke up...
00:12:02Ladies and gentlemen, please pass in your seatbelts as we make our final descent into Paris.
00:12:07Mesdames et messieurs, veuillez attacher vos ceintures.
00:12:09Nous faisons notre accroche finale sur Paris.
00:12:13Look, the Eiffel Tower is on the power!
00:12:14Oh, look at that.
00:12:17Take a picture, ready?
00:12:18Yeah.
00:12:21This is Chantelize.
00:12:22This is where all the major shopping is.
00:12:25Oh, I still want to go here.
00:12:27Look how cute that boy is.
00:12:29Look at that car!
00:12:31Oh my gosh, it's so tiny!
00:12:35Arc de Triomphe!
00:12:37Take a picture.
00:12:37I get to practice my friendships.
00:12:42This is so cool.
00:12:44This is Notre Dame.
00:12:46Look at that building!
00:12:47Beautiful bridge.
00:12:50I wonder if Grandpa will have any time to practice.
00:12:53Hope so.
00:12:53Yeah.
00:12:54Yes, the ambassador is very interested in your position.
00:13:10I will have to get back to you on that.
00:13:12Au revoir.
00:13:12I'm Jeremy Bluff, special assistant to the ambassador.
00:13:18Their grandfather is just finishing up a conference call.
00:13:21Now, which of you is which?
00:13:22I'm Melanie.
00:13:23She's Allie.
00:13:23What a day.

00:13:29Oh, wow.
00:13:41Wow.
00:13:41Wow.
00:13:42For a civil servant?
00:13:44Grandpa's doing all right.
00:13:46Is that my granddaughters?
00:13:48Hi, Grandpa!
00:13:49Welcome to Paris.
00:13:58It's been far too long.
00:14:00Almost 15 months since I've been to the States.
00:14:03Oh, Francois!
00:14:04My granddaughters, Alison and Melanie.
00:14:07Charles de Mademoiselle.
00:14:11Oh, Henri!

00:22:39The coca light.
00:22:41I'm Brigitte.
00:22:46I'm Melanie.
00:22:47This is Allie.
00:22:49Hey, you're Brigitte.
00:22:51Oh, she just said that.
00:22:52No, the Brigitte.
00:22:53The supermodel.
00:22:54No, she's not.
00:22:57Is she?
00:22:58Are you?
00:22:59I'm afraid so.
00:23:00Oh, my God.
00:23:01You were on the cover of Trash Chic magazine.
00:23:03You were wearing that Jean-Paul Gaultier bathing suit.
00:23:06Oh, no.
00:23:07Don't tell me you spend all day with your nose buried in those fashion magazines.
00:23:11Well, not all day.
00:23:12She usually breaks it up with some boy scoping or some maltrolling.
00:23:16I was exactly the same at your age.
00:23:21So, is this the first time in Paris?
00:23:24Well, Paris is such a magical city, full of adventure and romance.
00:23:28Oh, and here is the world's best shopping.
00:23:32And the world's cutest boys.
00:23:34Do you have a boyfriend?
00:23:35Allie.
00:23:37As it happens, I travel a lot for work, and there's not a lot of time for boyfriends.
00:23:41Allie.
00:23:42Allie.
00:23:43Allie.
00:23:44Allie.
00:23:45Allie.
00:23:45Allie.
00:23:46Allie.
00:23:47Allie.
00:23:48Allie.
00:23:49Allie.
00:23:50Allie.
00:23:51Now, how do you think?
00:23:52Allie.
00:23:52Allie.
00:23:53Allie.
00:23:54Allie.
00:23:55Allie.
00:23:57Allie.
00:24:01Allie.
00:24:01Allie.
00:24:02Allie.
00:24:03Allie.
00:24:04I'm doing a photo shoot at Jardin de Luxembourg on Thursday.
00:24:09Well, nice to meet you, girls.
00:24:11And Ali, be careful how you use your French.
00:24:15Ciao, girls. Nice to meet you.
00:24:16And remember, this is Paris. Have fun. Ciao.
00:24:20All right, girls. Let's go.
00:24:23It's time to see the rest of the museums.
00:24:26Museums? As in the plural?
00:24:34Museums?
00:24:59Would you pass the salt, please, Mr. Ambassador?
00:25:04So, what did you girls learn today?
00:25:07Learned jinxing.
00:25:13Girls?
00:25:15What exactly is going on?
00:25:17Oh, I just jinxed her grandpa.
00:25:19Now she can't talk until I say her name.
00:25:21Gee, what a shame.
00:25:25Mr. Ambassador, sir, I was wondering
00:25:27if you've had the opportunity to review my physician paper
00:25:30on the Greenwater Treaty and Preparation.
00:25:32Melanie!
00:25:32Melanie!
00:25:33Melanie!
00:25:36Melanie!
00:25:37Melanie!
00:25:39As I was saying, sir, I believe...
00:25:41Jeremy, we've been over this before.
00:25:43Saturday night is not your concern.
00:25:45What's happening Saturday night?
00:25:47Well, the embassy is hosting a gala banquet
00:25:49for the French foreign minister and his wife.
00:25:51You girls will get the chance to see
00:25:53diplomacy at work firsthand.
00:25:55Sounds like Snorzilla, the sequel.
00:25:57Well, man, this country is weird.
00:26:01Grape juice with dinner?
00:26:02No, no, it is not grape juice.
00:26:04It is...
00:26:05wine.
00:26:10If I'm Bougelé, if I'm not mistaken.
00:26:12I can't believe Grandpa had such a cow over the wine spritzer.
00:26:22It was an accident.
00:26:23Why can't he be like other grandfathers?
00:26:25You know, the sweet old guy who sits in a rocking chair
00:26:28and brings us presents and tells us how smart and funny we are?
00:26:32Face it, we don't have a grandfather.
00:26:35We have an ambassador.
00:26:35The best thing that's happened to us since we've been here
00:26:38is nearly being run over by those two French boys.
00:26:43For once, you and I totally and completely agree.
00:26:49Maybe we can see them again.
00:26:51Hello, there's like a zillion people in the city of Paris.
00:26:54What are you going to do?
00:26:56Look in the yellow pages under cute Parisian boys driving mopeds?
00:26:59No, under les fleurs de chance.
00:27:04The flower shop.
00:27:06Do you prefer daisies or roses?
00:27:12Girls, we're going to lose our lunch reservation.
00:27:17Sparkles?
00:27:18Mmm, too risky.
00:27:20Hat?
00:27:22Mix, box your face.
00:27:24God, I'll hand it to you, Allie.
00:27:26If we pull this off...
00:27:27Showtime.
00:27:43Delivery for Melanie Potter.
00:27:45That's me.
00:27:48Livreçon pour Alison, Potter?
00:27:50Oui, je m'appelle Allie.
00:27:52Ah, vous parlez français?
00:27:54Oui, un peu.
00:27:55Comment vous appelez-vous?
00:27:56Uh, Michel.
00:27:58Jean, it is very nice to feed you.
00:28:03It means nice to meet you.
00:28:06Between his English and your French, I don't think you'll ever fight about anything.
00:28:11Hey, I have a great idea.
00:28:13Why don't you guys come to lunch with us?
00:28:16Eh, awful.
00:28:18It means awesome, I think.
00:28:22Girls?
00:28:23Can we please...
00:28:25Who are they?
00:28:27Jean and Michel.
00:28:30Is that supposed to mean something to me?
00:28:32Oh, it should.
00:28:33They're coming to lunch with us.
00:28:35I don't think that's a good idea.
00:28:36Come on, Jeremy.
00:28:37You don't think it's a reservation.
00:28:38Follow us.
00:28:39John's father owns a boutique du fleur, a flower shop.
00:28:50Eh, during spring break, we deliver flowers for him so we can make money to buy new instruments.
00:28:54That's so cool.
00:28:56Do you guys have a band together?
00:28:57Yes.
00:28:58Me and four as the guys.
00:28:59The video heads.
00:29:00Doesn't anybody drink regular water here?
00:29:06Like, come a think?
00:29:07Only if you want to be, how you say, talking to Ralph on the big white phone.
00:29:13Do you like your school?
00:29:16Eh, once the rain comes, I am sad.
00:29:20Uh, maybe we better stick to French.
00:29:22Uh, qu'est-ce que t'aime-nia?
00:29:24What?
00:29:25What?
00:29:30That's so cool.
00:29:32I can't believe you know the Dizzy Deans.
00:29:34I think the way they mix reggae and hip-hop is totally original.
00:29:37Their lyrics are like, uh, poetry.
00:29:40Totally.
00:29:42Excuse me while I visit the boys' room, please.
00:29:45Feeling kind of nauseous.
00:29:51Would the mademoiselle care to order?
00:29:53Uh, I'll have the chicken, blue poulet, with the sauce on the side, s'il vous plaît.
00:29:57Poulet de mid-œil.
00:29:59You cannot get the sauce on the side.
00:30:03Why?
00:30:03Why?
00:30:04Because Chef Zingaro will not allow it.
00:30:07Eh, comment z'ai tout palé à cette so-per-fille de cette façon?
00:30:11Eh, tu es laïe à tron des singes, voilà!
00:30:17Bravo.
00:30:21What did he say?
00:30:22Eh, Lucy translated it, he said, uh, how dare you talk to that beautiful girl that way?
00:30:28And, uh, he is a rear-end of a flying baboon.
00:30:34That's the nicest thing anybody's ever done for me.
00:30:37Eh, it was, uh, anything.
00:30:41What you are saying?
00:30:43This is not Paris.
00:30:45Come with us.
00:30:46We will show you the real Paris.
00:30:47Ah, the air, plus, plus, as you say.
00:30:53We're so there.
00:30:54Let's go.
00:30:55Eh, les gars, où sont elles?
00:31:08No.
00:31:09No.
00:31:10Meet you in front of the embassy at five.
00:31:11Remember, leave a good tip.
00:31:13No.
00:31:14No.
00:31:14Girl, wait!
00:31:17Wait!
00:31:18Girl, wait, wait!
00:31:20Think of my career!
00:31:23I hate kids.
00:31:28I'm with you.
00:31:29I'm with you.
00:31:32Your hands releasing me.
00:31:35Come on in, inviting me.
00:31:38This is the sweetest thing to do.
00:31:44That's why I'm with you.
00:31:47Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar, I feel my pain.
00:31:53Still gotta see my pain.
00:32:04You're killing me in much more power.
00:32:08Slide down, my side, and slide down, my side, and when it's done.
00:32:15That's why I know I
00:32:20Sugar, sugar, stick it to my bed
00:32:25Where do you play?
00:32:28Uh, yeah, for House Bombay.
00:32:30I love it!
00:32:31I, stick it to my bed
00:32:35Stick it to my bed
00:32:39Stick it to my bed
00:32:42Are you having fun?
00:32:44I have some laughs!
00:32:45I love it!
00:32:48Sugar, sugar, stick it to my bed
00:32:55Stick it to my bed
00:32:58Stick it to my bed
00:33:01Stick it to my bed
00:33:05We've been to so many museums, it's all a big blur.
00:33:18I probably wouldn't be able to tell the Mona Lisa from Lisa Simpson.
00:33:23Trace races low at 50 kilometers an hour.
00:33:27You can't appreciate anything that way.
00:33:29Better to see one panting and really see it than to rise by 100 in a blur.
00:33:35What? What's the worry?
00:33:40You'll see the artist uses light to capture the emotion of the city.
00:33:44It feels like these colors are what we wish we saw every day.
00:33:48Exactly. It's not supposed to be realistic.
00:33:52It's emotional.
00:33:54That's what artists will be about.
00:33:57How you feel when you look at the bent.
00:34:05It's beautiful.
00:34:09And this view is amazing.
00:34:12Paris is the most beautiful place I've ever seen.
00:34:18Now this is real breakfast.
00:34:20Joseph food you at the embassy, no?
00:34:23Oh, yeah, they food us, but nothing we can recognize.
00:34:26You're a funny girl, Ellie.
00:34:30You know, I can get used to this language barrier thing.
00:34:39This has been the coolest day.
00:34:41Yeah, thanks for showing us around.
00:34:43We've had the greatest time.
00:34:45Time?
00:34:46Oh, my God, what time is it?
00:34:494.45.
00:34:50We're supposed to be home at 5, we promised Jeremy.
00:34:52We're on the other side of the city, we'll never make it.
00:34:55Hey, you, making the scene, plotting the scheme, you know what's happening.
00:35:02Hey, you, damn for me care, passion and flare, me without this bell.
00:35:10And you, your care and see, your gasoline, your burn is happening, yeah, you.
00:35:18I'll never make it.
00:35:43Oh my god, that was so much fun.
00:36:03Do you girls realize that I've been worried sick about you all day?
00:36:07My career would be down the toilet if anything had happened to you.
00:36:11Jeremy, I didn't know you cared.
00:36:13You've left me no choice but to let the ambassador know what you've been up to today.
00:36:17Oh, good idea.
00:36:19I'm sure he won't be too upset when he finds out you let us run around town all day with two boys.
00:36:25French boys. Teenage French boys.
00:36:29See you at dinner, Jay.
00:36:41So what did you learn today, girls?
00:36:42Hmm, not much.
00:36:48Oh, except did you know Notre Dame has an excellent support system called the Flying Buttress?
00:36:53The builders practically invented the Gothic style of architecture in the 12th century.
00:36:57Could you pass this out, please?
00:37:00Yeah, most of the kings of France were crowned or married there.
00:37:04Did you know it took over 200 years to build?
00:37:06Guess they weren't in much of a hurry.
00:37:08Style dressing, please, Jeremy.
00:37:09Earth to J-Man.
00:37:14Hmm?
00:37:15Oh, dressing, right, sure.
00:37:17Dressing for you.
00:37:19Girls, you have indeed learned something today, haven't you?
00:37:22Yeah, and we owe it all to Jeremy.
00:37:24Jeremy, we're supposed to meet the boys at 2 o'clock tomorrow.
00:37:31How are we ever going to pull that off?
00:37:33Well, we can't keep ditching Jeremy.
00:37:35I'm just kind of feeling bad for the bonehead.
00:37:38What we need is a plan.
00:37:40A diversion.
00:37:40What we need is...
00:37:45I've got it.
00:37:58Perfect.
00:37:58Good morning, our favorite tour guide of ours.
00:38:04Good morning.
00:38:05Look, girls, I appreciate that you made me look good in front of the ambassador last night,
00:38:09but that does not give you license to tick me off today, okay?
00:38:13Who, us?
00:38:14What's the first stop of the day?
00:38:1510 a.m., the Rodin Museum.
00:38:19No?
00:38:20Jardin de Luxembourg.
00:38:22That's weird.
00:38:23Could have sworn.
00:38:24This park sure is pretty.
00:38:30Lots of beautiful things to look for.
00:38:32Let me add.
00:38:34Uh, Jeremy, isn't it a great day?
00:38:37I mean, to look outside in the nature and stuff?
00:38:40Yeah, it's terrific.
00:38:41My allergies are thrilled.
00:38:43Wait, wait.
00:38:46Ew.
00:38:47Ew.
00:38:47Look, Ali, it's Brigitte, the supermodel we met at the cafe.
00:39:00All right, you two girls are friends with the supermodel, and I'm having a good time.
00:39:05Ali, Melanie!
00:39:10What a nice surprise!
00:39:12Mm!
00:39:12Let's take lunch, everyone!
00:39:14Brigitte, this is Jeremy Bluff, special assistant to our grandfather, the U.S. ambassador to France.
00:39:20Oh, very nice to meet you, Mr. Bluff.
00:39:23Call me...
00:39:25Jeremy?
00:39:27Uh, Jeremy.
00:39:29Call me Jeremy.
00:39:30What a fascinating career you have, Jeremy.
00:39:33Foreign diplomacy has always been an interest of mine.
00:39:36Really?
00:39:37It's a very fascinating and complex field.
00:39:41Yeah.
00:39:41Really?
00:39:42That is why I did my post-graduate studies on international relations.
00:39:46Post-graduate work?
00:39:47Yeah, I did my master's dissertation on the Middle East peace talks.
00:39:52My first posting was in Saudi Arabia.
00:39:56Really?
00:39:56Yes!
00:39:58So the Saudi prince says to me,
00:40:00we will sign the accord if you teach us the Macarena.
00:40:05I can't believe she's even buying them, though.
00:40:07So what did you do?
00:40:08Well, you know.
00:40:09Eat, please.
00:40:13We better make a citizen's arrest.
00:40:15You know, hey...
00:40:16Okay, phase two.
00:40:18So there I am, all alone, with the Saudi prince and his barber.
00:40:22Uh, Jeremy,
00:40:23we thought it might be fun if you went to the south end of Pont Alexander at 2 o'clock?
00:40:28The Pont Alexander?
00:40:30You know, a bridge built for the 1900 exhibition.
00:40:33It presents Paris at its grandest.
00:40:34Well, at least that's what it says in the book.
00:40:39There wouldn't be two boys waiting at the other end of this bridge, would there?
00:40:43You met some boys?
00:40:45Wow, you girls don't waste any time.
00:40:47I'm sorry, it's not in the itinerary.
00:40:49But, Jeremy, if we don't show up, John and Michelle will think we stood them up.
00:40:53Then what will they think of Americans?
00:40:55Yeah, what kind of diplomat are you anyway?
00:40:58Yes, Jeremy, what kind are you?
00:41:01The kind of caves, apparently.
00:41:04Yeah.
00:41:04Okay, to the bridge.
00:41:15It's sad.
00:41:16You don't see your grandpa there very much.
00:41:18Yeah, well, I don't think he's too disappointed.
00:41:20He kind of thinks we're a nuisance.
00:41:23Nuisance?
00:41:24Uh, yeah, you know, a pain in the butt.
00:41:27Ah, oui.
00:41:29Paris used to have a swim competition here years ago,
00:41:31but it was canceled because the Seine was so polluted.
00:41:34That's why the Water Treaty is so important.
00:41:37Force each country to clean up after itself.
00:41:40You know, the regular...
00:41:41I'm rambling about water issues.
00:41:43Somebody get the hook.
00:41:44No, no, no, no.
00:41:45I think it's wonderful that you're so passionate about your work.
00:41:49Repeat after me.
00:41:51That geek is a total freak show.
00:41:55That geek is a total freak show.
00:42:00Great.
00:42:01A few more key phrases and you're ready for junior high in California.
00:42:05My father is a butcher.
00:42:07All he ever talks about is meat.
00:42:09Lamb chops this, pork chops that.
00:42:11He wants me to take over his business one day.
00:42:13He thinks my music is a waste of time.
00:42:16I'm afraid that disappoints him.
00:42:17But you can't stop playing if you love it.
00:42:20I told him it was important to me.
00:42:22He says, you know what's important?
00:42:24A nice filet mignon.
00:42:26That's what's important.
00:42:27Well, I guess it's the same in every country.
00:42:30Adults, they just don't understand kids.
00:42:34Modeling is fun, but it's just a job with a very short-save life.
00:42:38But next year I'm going back to grad school to get my PhD in international relations.
00:42:42A supermodel and a scholar.
00:42:46You're a very impressive person, Brigitte.
00:42:52American girls, they're different from the French.
00:42:55They like to laugh.
00:42:59Clear.
00:43:01Oh, you mean laugh.
00:43:03Oui, laugh.
00:43:04They are funny, like you.
00:43:07Parisian girls, they walk around like this.
00:43:15But they American girls, they walk like this.
00:43:19Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour.
00:43:22Oh my God.
00:43:31Ah, see.
00:43:35Paris is so romantic at any age.
00:43:37So you really speak four languages?
00:43:42Five, with Japanese.
00:43:44But I'm really not that fluent.
00:43:58Well, I have to get back to work.
00:44:00So dinner tomorrow night?
00:44:02Eight o'clock.
00:44:06Ciao, Jeremy.
00:44:07I'd say we've done you a pretty big favor, Dr. J.
00:44:12Wouldn't you?
00:44:14Finding you a supermodel girlfriend and all that?
00:44:17Yeah.
00:44:18I wonder how you'll ever repay us.
00:44:20Shh.
00:44:31Shh.
00:44:31Shh.
00:44:32Shh.
00:44:33Did you get it?
00:44:34I got it.
00:44:37It's in the back.
00:44:39Wait.
00:44:39Not so fast, Jamie.
00:44:41What?
00:44:42Make sure it's all there.
00:44:44Two large fries and two hamburgers.
00:44:50Wait.
00:44:51Where's my chocolate shake?
00:44:52Give me a break.
00:44:53I ran out of money.
00:44:55Ah, ha.
00:44:57Les voilà.
00:44:59Ah, thought so.
00:45:04Le Mickey Donalds?
00:45:05In my kitchen?
00:45:06I'm not afraid.
00:45:07I think I'm going to faint.
00:45:08We're sorry, Henri.
00:45:09You're just so hungry.
00:45:10Henri, have you ever even tried a fast food burger and fries?
00:45:14Moi?
00:45:15Je n'ai pas folle.
00:45:16I'm Henri.
00:45:16I was trained at the Cordon Bleu.
00:45:18I don't eat this fast food.
00:45:20You're too stuck in your own ways, Henri.
00:45:23You have to be more open-minded.
00:45:25Au contraire.
00:45:25Hey, it is you two who never want to try anything new.
00:45:29Americans are the most clothed-minded.
00:45:32Oh, just look at this one.
00:45:35Okay.
00:45:36We'll make you a deal, Henri.
00:45:38We'll try one of your concoctions if you try one of ours.
00:45:42We will.
00:45:45Bon.
00:45:46You have a deal.
00:45:50Well, eggs with Archie show.
00:45:52The hamburger and the fries.
00:46:04On the count of three.
00:46:06One.
00:46:09Uh.
00:46:11Two.
00:46:13Two.
00:46:16Wait.
00:46:18It's called a hamburger.
00:46:20You have to use your hands.
00:46:20Hamburger.
00:46:21Yeah.
00:46:22Oh, my God.
00:46:31One.
00:46:33Ah.
00:46:35Two.
00:46:37Two.
00:46:39Three.
00:46:40Don't cry.
00:46:46Mmm, not bad.
00:46:47Ah, Joella, I told you, French cuisine is the most exquisite in the world.
00:46:53Oh, he has a very refined palate.
00:46:55I don't understand how people eat this rubbish.
00:46:57It's junky.
00:46:59It's trash.
00:47:00It's rubbish.
00:47:02Here, Henri.
00:47:04Try it with this.
00:47:05Get up.
00:47:06Getz, getz.
00:47:07What?
00:47:07Trust me.
00:47:08Huh?
00:47:09Thanks for taking us out for the shakes.
00:47:20Oh, I kind of got a craving for one myself.
00:47:24Mmm.
00:47:24I forgot how good these things are.
00:47:26So, why do you always look so miserable, J-Man?
00:47:32Yeah, why do you stick around the embassy if you hate it so much?
00:47:35Well, I don't, I don't hate it.
00:47:36I'm just frustrated.
00:47:40You know, you know, I've been in embassy operations for three years.
00:47:43I can't seem to get your grandfather to take me seriously.
00:47:46You know, move me up to a policy position.
00:47:49That's rough.
00:47:51Sort of like when I wanted my mom and dad to move me up to a PG-13 movie.
00:47:55They wouldn't take me seriously.
00:47:57Until I proved to them that I was old enough to handle it.
00:48:01How'd you do that?
00:48:02Well, I acted real mature.
00:48:03And when that didn't work, I whined.
00:48:08A lot.
00:48:09They cracked like an egg.
00:48:12Jeremy, can I offer you some advice?
00:48:15Do I have a choice?
00:48:16Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures.
00:48:20Shoot.
00:48:21Okay, well, around us, you're always in control and bossy and stuff.
00:48:27But around Grandpa, you're a...
00:48:30A...
00:48:31Chicken.
00:48:32Thanks, that's it.
00:48:33All I'm saying is that you've got to stay enough of yourself and get a big mouth, like...
00:48:39Melanie.
00:48:40Yeah, like me.
00:48:43Wait, what?
00:48:44Gotcha.
00:48:45Gotcha.
00:48:45Gotcha.
00:48:46You're going to close, monsieur.
00:48:59Thank you, Francois.
00:49:11And tell the girls to turn that noise off.
00:49:12Yes, yes, monsieur.
00:49:13Your breakfast, monsieur.
00:49:24What it blazes, is this?
00:49:24French fry.
00:49:27The whole staff has gone baddy.
00:49:40Good morning, ladies.
00:49:53Morning, Jay.
00:49:54So, it's the itinerary for today.
00:49:56Itinerary.
00:49:57Itinerary.
00:49:57What do you want to do today?

00:50:07I don't do shopping.
00:50:09I do shopping.

00:50:31Oh, that's all!
00:50:39Oh, the rose!

00:51:33And then we turn.
00:51:35Attitude, attitude, attitude, always. Attitude.
00:51:39Like that.
00:51:41Très bien, Blumenau!

00:51:49Okay, let's go.
00:51:53All right?
00:51:55Attitude, always.
00:52:02The dinner menu, monsieur?
00:52:04The menu's fine. Thank you, François.
00:52:07And make sure the girls are on time for dinner.
00:52:10The mademoiselle are very tired and wish to be excused, monsieur ambassador.
00:52:16Mm-hmm.
00:52:19Cross-check.
00:52:21Yes.
00:52:22Jeez.
00:52:27We did it.
00:52:29Get out of here with your bed, mademoiselle.
00:52:33Look, they're coming.
00:52:37Remember the true test.
00:52:39Yep.
00:52:40Can they tell us apart?
00:52:41If not, it wasn't meant to be.
00:52:43Hi, Melanie.
00:52:45Ali.
00:52:46I'm so glad you were able to, how you say, sneak out.
00:52:49And you almost made it.
00:52:50Girls, where are you going?
00:52:51I'm so glad you were able to, how you say, sneak out.
00:52:55And you almost made it.
00:52:56Girls, where are you going?
00:52:57Uh, John and Michelle were just showing us where to pick up some tea for grandpa.
00:53:01See you later.
00:53:02Really?
00:53:03Well, I'll just call him and see if there's anything else you might need.
00:53:04I'm so glad you were able to, how you say, sneak out.
00:53:08I'm so glad you were able to, how you say, sneak out.
00:53:10I'm so glad you were able to, how you say, sneak out.
00:53:13And you almost made it.
00:53:15Girls, where are you going?
00:53:18Uh, John and Michelle were just showing us where to pick up some tea for grandpa.
00:53:25See you later.
00:53:26Really?
00:53:27Well, I'll just call him and see if there's anything else you might need.
00:53:31Okay, okay.
00:53:32John and Michelle invited us to dinner.
00:53:34Way to hang tough, Al.
00:53:36No.
00:53:37We didn't ask for grandpa's permission because we knew he'd say no.
00:53:40He just doesn't understand how important this is to us.
00:53:48Hello, Francois.
00:53:49This is Jeremy.
00:53:50Please tell the ambassador.
00:53:55That I have taken the girls out for an ice cream.
00:53:58Bonsoir.
00:54:01So where are you taking them?
00:54:03Uh, favorite restaurant.
00:54:05Secret place.
00:54:07Secret place.
00:54:08Secret place.
00:54:09Great, great.
00:54:10You'll be at the Place de la Concorde in three hours.
00:54:14Don't be late.
00:54:15I'm holding you too personally responsible.
00:54:17No excuses.
00:54:18Comprenez-vous?
00:54:20You have to worry.
00:54:22It means you don't have to worry.
00:54:24We promise.
00:54:25Thanks, Jay.
00:54:27Three hours.
00:54:28Toi, sir.
00:54:29Thought we were going to the Eiffel Tower for dinner.
00:54:31And so we are.
00:54:32This is amazing.
00:54:33It's beautiful.
00:54:34This is your secret place.
00:54:35You can see for miles.
00:54:36This is incredible.
00:54:37Mademoiselle.
00:54:38Mademoiselle.
00:54:39Welcome to restaurant.
00:54:40Jean-Michel.
00:54:41Jean-Michel.
00:54:42This is your secret place.
00:54:43You can see for miles.
00:54:44This is incredible.
00:54:45Mademoiselle.
00:54:46Welcome to restaurant.
00:54:47Jean-Michel.
00:54:48Zabel Fuffo.
00:54:49Angela and I were together for three years.
00:54:50I don't know if I was afraid of commitment, or if she was just the wrong person.
00:54:54But I buried myself in my work.
00:54:55Finally, she got fed up with me.
00:54:57She ran off with some guy she met at club med in the Bahamas.
00:55:01Violins, please.
00:55:02I'm sorry.
00:55:03Sorry.
00:55:04Oh, don't be.
00:55:05Don't be.
00:55:06I'm sorry.
00:55:07I'm sorry.
00:55:08Oh, don't be.
00:55:09No.
00:55:10No, no.
00:55:11No, no.
00:55:12No.
00:55:13No, no.
00:55:14No, no.
00:55:15No.
00:55:17No, no.
00:55:18No, no.
00:55:19No, no.
00:55:20No, no, no.
00:55:21No, no, no, no.
00:55:22No, no, no, no, no.
00:55:23So, what about you?
00:55:27What about me?
00:55:28Oh, please, come on.
00:55:30A well-educated, gorgeous supermodel, unattached.
00:55:36There's a story there.
00:55:39There was someone.
00:55:41We were engaged.
00:55:43Ooh, the plot thickens.
00:55:48He was a Grand Prix driver, traveling all around the world.
00:55:53And I was a fashion model doing the same.
00:55:56One day I saw a picture in the tabloid.
00:55:59It said we were the most romantic couple in the world.
00:56:03Doesn't sound so bad.
00:56:05We never even spent more than three days together.
00:56:09Some whole months.
00:56:12Neither one of us wanted to compromise our careers.
00:56:16So, here we are, two uncompromising workaholics.
00:56:23Who can't make a relationship work.
00:56:27You know what?
00:56:29Jeremy, the truth is that if a relationship is right, both people want to make it work.
00:56:36C'est comme ça.
00:56:37Tu sais?
00:56:40Ooh, the gelati looks delicious.
00:56:43Do you want to split the chocolat?
00:56:44Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:56:46I'm more of a vanilla kind of guy.
00:56:50I love chocolat.
00:56:55So, what shall we do?
00:56:59One chocolate gelati, please.
00:57:01To share.
00:57:02The lights of Paris are so unbelievable.
00:57:15It takes my breath away.
00:57:18Are you feeling sick?
00:57:20No, it's just an expression.
00:57:22Melanie, our band's video heads are playing tomorrow night at the dance.
00:57:30Yes?
00:57:32Would you like to go with me?
00:57:34Of course.
00:57:36That sounds awesome.
00:57:37I'd love to go to the dance with you.
00:57:40Oui, oui?
00:57:41Oui?
00:57:42We're happy for to go, you.
00:57:43I actually understand your English.
00:57:47Oui?
00:57:48Oui.
00:57:52What?
00:57:53Well, when we were nine, Allie and I went to Disneyland for the first time.
00:57:58And I thought this was the best day of my life.
00:58:02I didn't think life could get any better.
00:58:09Mmm, this chocolate eclair is très magnifique.
00:58:13What?
00:58:14What's so funny?
00:58:22Hey, les gamins, qu'est-ce que vous foutez là?
00:58:25What do you mean, off limits?
00:58:27There's no sign anywhere.
00:58:30C'est interdit ici.
00:58:31Vous savez pas lire?
00:58:32What does it say?
00:58:35Not trespassing.
00:58:37Their letters will be executed.
00:58:41Classicuted.
00:58:43I'm not sure which one is worse.
00:58:51Anything?
00:58:55I'd better call the ambassador.
00:58:58How could you be so irresponsible, Jeremy?
00:59:01Look, you want me to trust you?
00:59:04Where are my granddaughters?
00:59:05Sir, all I can do is apologize and say I am so sorry.
00:59:10I thought you were sorry.
00:59:11I don't know what came over me.
00:59:18How could I have been so stupid?
00:59:20It wasn't stupid.
00:59:21It was romantic and sweet.
00:59:23If anything happens to those girls...
00:59:25No, no, no, no.
00:59:25They're fine, Jeremy.
00:59:27That means intuition.
00:59:29Okay.
00:59:30Come on.
00:59:31Thank God.
00:59:43Guess what?
00:59:44We got a ride home.
00:59:46Um, are we in trouble?
00:59:48Yes, we are.
00:59:52Ellison, Melanie, I'm very disappointed in you.
00:59:57As United States ambassador to France, I cannot have my granddaughters being hauled into police
01:00:02headquarters, gallivanting around Paris with two delinquent little French boys.
01:00:06But Grandpa, you don't even know them.
01:00:08Sir, if I might say one thing.
01:00:10I will deal with you later.
01:00:12No, sir.
01:00:13No, sir, you'll deal with me now.
01:00:19Allie and Melanie don't deserve this.
01:00:21Your granddaughters are two terrific kids who came to Paris to have fun.
01:00:26And they met two boys who introduced them to the crazy, fun Paris that you once knew yourself, Edward.
01:00:33Allie and Melanie are so smart, so fun, so full of life.
01:00:40You could find that out for yourself, sir, if you would just take the time to get to know them.
01:00:47You are very close to insubordination, young man.
01:00:50Well, I'm about to get a little closer.
01:00:54I gave you my position paper on the water treaty a week ago.
01:00:57You have yet to read it.
01:01:00I have something to offer here.
01:01:03But I see now that my contribution is falling on deaf ears.
01:01:08So, Mr. Ambassador, with all due respect, I quit.
01:01:14What?
01:01:15Jeremy, you can't.
01:01:16Not because of us.
01:01:17No, no.
01:01:20Thank you both.
01:01:21You've given me the courage to do what I should have done months ago.
01:01:33Shall we?
01:01:40Girls, you are forbidden to see those boys ever again.
01:01:45Is that understood?
01:01:46But, Grandpa...
01:01:47End of discussion.
01:01:48Mel?
01:02:06Mel?
01:02:06I heard it.
01:02:07Sounds like a rock on the window.
01:02:15A rock on the window!
01:02:17Good morning, my crème brûlée!
01:02:26What are you doing here?
01:02:27How did you guys get past the cards?
01:02:29The Marines?
01:02:31Nice guys.
01:02:33Oh, we're very sorry for getting you in trouble.
01:02:35Don't worry about it.
01:02:37It all worked out okay.
01:02:39Except...
01:02:40We have some bad news.
01:02:43We can't go to the dance with you tomorrow night.
01:02:45But you guys should invite someone else.
01:02:49Never.
01:02:50Either we go with Melanie and Alipotter, or we go alone.
01:02:53Right, Sean?
01:02:54Right!
01:02:55Shhh!
01:02:56It's not just the dance.
01:03:03We can't see you anymore.
01:03:05What?
01:03:06You can't see us again?
01:03:08Ever?
01:03:09Hello?
01:03:10Who is out there?
01:03:12Guys better go.
01:03:12We don't want you getting in any more trouble.
01:03:21Come on, Mel.
01:03:22Goodbye, beautiful girl.
01:03:26Don't forget us.

01:07:56schools i trust

01:08:06boeuf melanie
01:08:12uh-huh
01:08:12Mmm, c'est délicieux.
01:08:18A truly unique creation.
01:08:20Bravo, Henri.
01:08:37Grandpa was doing his best to convince the foreign minister
01:08:40that France should spy in the clean water.
01:08:42But he wasn't having much luck.
01:08:49Those arguments, Edward, are excellent.
01:08:52But we're not convinced to finance it.
01:08:56We're dying here.
01:08:57He doesn't think his government should sign.
01:08:59We've got to do something to help Grandpa.
01:09:04Prince Waps!
01:09:05I understand your concerns, Mr. Foreign Minister,
01:09:18but we believe the treaty benefits both of our countries.
01:09:21I would like to be able to help you, my friend,
01:09:24but we are unconvinced that it is in our national interest.
01:09:29So, we will speak no more about it.
01:09:37Edward, what is the meaning of this?
01:09:40I'm certain.
01:09:41I have no idea, Mr. Foreign Minister.
01:09:44Who is responsible for this?
01:09:46We are.
01:09:48You better have an explanation, young ladies.
01:09:51We do.
01:09:52And it's a very good one.
01:09:53Take it away, Mo.
01:09:55Me?
01:09:57You watch all those legal shows?
01:09:59Time for closing argument.
01:10:04Well, sir, France has always prided itself
01:10:07on being at the cutting edge of water technology.
01:10:11And, uh, stuff.
01:10:15Napoleon Bonaparte built aqueducts
01:10:17and a modern sewer system
01:10:18so France would have
01:10:19the most happening water system in the world.
01:10:21I had no idea.
01:10:23And still, what do sewers have to do with anything?
01:10:27Uh...
01:10:28Well, it's not so much the sewers,
01:10:30Monsieur Dubévois,
01:10:31but what they represent.
01:10:33Napoleon understood national pride,
01:10:35and the Parisians used to drink out of fountains
01:10:38and swim in the Seine for fun.
01:10:39But, not anymore.
01:10:41Every time we ask for water in Paris,
01:10:44it comes in the bottle.
01:10:45I mean, hello?
01:10:47Is this the kind of world we want to live in?
01:10:49Is this the kind of water we want to drink?
01:10:53Where the mercury content is 27 parts per billion?
01:10:56And it makes you glow in the dark?
01:10:58I don't think so.
01:11:00Jinx!
01:11:02Uh, Allison?
01:11:05Melanie?
01:11:05Thanks.
01:11:06So I ask you, ladies and gentlemen,
01:11:09what cost is too high
01:11:10when your health
01:11:11and your place in history are at stake?
01:11:13Edward?
01:11:23Edward?
01:11:25I am sorry to report.
01:11:27Your granddaughters are more persuasive
01:11:30than you are.
01:11:30Oh, bravo, young ladies.
01:11:36Your esprit, your elan,
01:11:38your spirit,
01:11:39we do not have this kind of passion
01:11:40amongst our young people these days.
01:11:43Salut.
01:11:44Oh, zut.
01:11:47Edward,
01:11:49I have decided to reconsider.
01:11:51I will petition my government
01:11:53to sign on to the Clean Water Treaty.
01:11:55Thank you very much,
01:12:07Mr. Dubois.
01:12:08Not a great, mademoiselle.
01:12:10François!
01:12:12Water for everyone.
01:12:13It was a wonderful evening,
01:12:20Edward, my friend.
01:12:21Thank you for the most entertaining evening
01:12:23I have had in years.
01:12:25And these girls,
01:12:26they are gems,
01:12:28both of them.
01:12:29Come, madame de Beauvoir,
01:12:31before I come to my senses
01:12:33and change my mind.
01:12:35Mademoiselle.
01:12:36Au revoir.
01:12:37Au revoir.
01:12:44Where are you two off to
01:12:45in such a hurry?
01:12:46Oh, we still have a lot of packing to do.
01:12:49Really?
01:12:50Oh.
01:12:52Because I was under the impression
01:12:53you had a dance to attend.
01:12:55Unless you're too tired.
01:12:56No!
01:12:58Hey, hey, grandpa.
01:13:00Let's go get ready.
01:13:02Hurry, girls.
01:13:02I'll take you myself.
01:13:04Come on, grandpa.
01:13:04Let's take our heads out the top.
01:13:06Now, girls, as an ambassador,
01:13:07I cannot ride around
01:13:08with my head stuck out of a...
01:13:10Oh, I'm down.

01:13:34Bonsoir!
01:13:36Bonsoir!
01:13:37Bonsoir!
01:13:58Bonsoir!
01:13:58Jeremy? Brigitte?
01:14:13Hey!
01:14:14What are you guys doing here?
01:14:15This is Jeremy's last chance to chaperone before he starts his new job.
01:14:20Job? What new job?
01:14:21Senior policy advisor to the American ambassador.
01:14:25Seems I've been rehired.
01:14:26And promoted.
01:14:27Give it up for the J-Man.
01:14:28Woo!
01:14:31Hi, Melanie.
01:14:31Hi.
01:14:32Hey, are we?
01:14:33May I have this dance?
01:14:39Oh, I'm not very good at this.
01:14:40Oh, yes you are.
01:14:54I don't know when I'll see you again, Melanie.
01:14:56Well, when the video heads get famous, maybe you'll tour L.A.
01:15:02I'll email you every day.
01:15:04I'll email you twice a day.
01:15:07Three times a day and that's my final offer.
01:15:09I miss you, funny girl.
01:15:13I miss you, too.
01:15:22When you said we'd see the real Paris, I know you meant the police headquarters.
01:15:26I wish you didn't have to leave tomorrow.
01:15:28I wish you didn't have to leave tomorrow.
01:15:36To be young and in love.
01:15:39Oh, but I am, Mademoiselle.
01:15:41I wish you didn't have to hide out, so we're on the way tonight.
01:15:44Waiting for the highest to catch us, to take us on this flight.
01:15:50As we wave goodbye, our love won't be forgotten.
01:15:56Pride is there to take, but our souls cannot be broken.
01:16:00We sail along these shores, still I gaze into your eyes.
01:16:06Lord, catch me as I fall, oh.
01:16:12We sail away, we sail for the moment.
01:16:18Allie, Melanie, you don't want to miss your flight.
01:16:20I've specially prepared a patty as an appetizer and guiche Lorraine as an entrée for your flight.
01:16:30It's just eggs. You like it.
01:16:32Thank you, Henri. Yeah, thanks.
01:16:34Now you tell them, my guiche Lorraine must be served at precisely 114 degrees centigrade or...
01:16:40All is lost?
01:16:42Well...
01:16:43I will certainly miss your food projectiles, Mademoiselle.
01:16:58A tout à l'heure, girls.
01:17:01A tout à l'heure, François.
01:17:02A tout à l'heure to you, too.
01:17:06Well, girls, we better get going.
01:17:08That's all right, Jeremy.
01:17:09I think their grandfather ought to take them to the airport, don't you?
01:17:14I'll wait for you in the car, girls, all right?
01:17:15Entend.
01:17:19Morofua, I will miss you.
01:17:23We're going to play.
01:17:27Sandy?
01:17:35So, uh...
01:17:37Well, uh...
01:17:40I guess you guys, uh...
01:17:44Got to hit the...
01:17:46Jamie, I'm not going to get all mushy-gushy on this, are you?
01:17:49Yeah, the last thing the State Department needs is a mushy-gushy diplomat.
01:17:53That could kill you up big time.
01:17:57Thanks for everything.
01:17:59We're going to miss you, you know.
01:18:04Get over here.
01:18:04Let's see you back in the States.
01:18:11Okay.
01:18:12I promise, okay?
01:18:13Okay.
01:18:13We better get going.
01:18:16I miss you guys.
01:18:18Bye.
01:18:18Bye.
01:18:19Take care of them, Mr. Ambassador.
01:18:21I'm very proud of you girls.
01:18:23No, I mean I'm proud of you ladies.
01:18:27Thanks, Grandpa.
01:18:28You're welcome.
01:18:29Hey, come on.
01:18:30We've got a plane to catch.
01:18:32We've?
01:18:32I'm taking a vacation.
01:18:43I want to spend some time chillin' with my totally A++ family.
01:18:49Awesome!
01:18:51Jinx!
01:18:51Oh, Callison!
01:18:57Callison!
01:18:58Zeleny!
01:18:59Zeleny!
01:19:00Oh, it's going to be a nice, quiet, quiet home.
01:19:04Oh, don't worry.
01:19:10Grandpa did finally unjinx us.
01:19:12So, that was the end of our Paris vacation.
01:19:17And boy, we came home with some great memories.
01:19:20We're only gone for a week, but we changed for a lifetime.
01:19:48And we rode through Paris on the back of their moped.
01:19:52And their band played at this really cool dance.
01:19:55Okay, not everything changed.
01:19:59But hey, Rome wasn't built in a day.
01:20:02It says here that Rome's streets are paved with the history of civilization.
01:20:07And AFCA's grasslands have some of the world's largest herds of elephant, giraffe, and zebra.
01:20:12So many amazing places in the world.
01:20:15How are we ever going to see them all?
01:20:19Hey, Allie.
01:20:20Hey, Melanie.
01:20:21Oh, hey, Kyle.
01:20:21Hey, Shane.
01:20:23Oh, that's Kyle.
01:20:25I'm Shane.
01:20:26You guys want to get some fro-yo at the mall?
01:20:31Thanks, but we've got homework.
01:20:34Maybe some other time.
01:20:37Now, where were we?
