"I Just Want to Have Fun"

Kristina: That couple from Denmark just returned their wave runner. Here's the key and the credit card slip.

Michael: Oh, thanks.

Kristina: I can't believe how we lucked out. This has to be one of the best resorts in Cancun.

Michael: Yeah. Who knew being an American would work in our favor?

Kristina: And with your Spanish and my French, we should be able to communicate with most of the guests.

Michael: You're just happy to be by the ocean wearing a bathing suit on the job.

Kristina: It's better than slaving away on some Veracruz fishing boat. And I know the room we rented is small, but it's close to work, and it's a lot more comfortable than that motel we stayed in.

Michael: See? I told you we could do this.

Kristina: Are you sure Jerry won't come after us?

Michael: Don't worry about Jerry.

Kristina: What about home? I mean, the police aren't going to stop looking for us. Neither will our families.

Michael: Right now, I don't want to think about that, okay?

Kristina: No, I just want to have fun.

Michael: Hey.

Kristina: I've got to remember not to judge people too quickly.

Michael: You?

Kristina: Look at that blond Woman on the wave runner.

Michael: Wait. The one staying close to the shore?

Kristina: Her son was so excited to get out on the water, he grabbed the first wave runner he saw, while I spent half an hour with the mom while she fusses over the selection, trying to pick an easy one for herself.

Michael: Well, he's having a great time.

Kristina: While the mom is gripping onto the handles for dear life.

Michael: Well, you gotta give her credit for going out there.

Kristina: My mom's like that. She's totally risk averse. Her idea of outdoor sports is floating in the pool, lifting a glass of iced tea. Molly and I would beg her to go ice skating and skiing and tobogganing. She finally agreed, despite her terror of us all dying. [Chuckles] The look on her face when she snowplowed down that bunny slope was priceless.

Michael: Yeah, well, my mom's the opposite. She's up for anything. Especially if she hasn't done it before. She's always the first one to put her hand up in the air on the roller coaster, the first one to let the weird insect crawl up her arm at the zoo. I hope Mom's okay.

Kristina: I hope mine is, too.

Michael: I never met so many obnoxious people.

Kristina: Some of them give a whole new meaning to "ugly Americans."

Michael: And then there's the stupid ones.

Kristina: [Sighs] Maybe it's all the rum. That one guy was too smashed to sign his credit card receipt.

Michael: [Laughs] I'm wiped. You know, if one more person is rude, I'm afraid I'm gonna lose it. You know, I still can't control a rage even if I know it's coming on.

Kristina: You want to take off?

Michael: No, I'll stick around and keep you company. But... the next person who walks through that door is yours.

Kristina: Deal.

Woman: Excuse me. Is this the place to rent the wave runner?

Kristina: It is.

Woman: I hope you can help me.

Michael: So do I.

Michael: This is the part you gotta remember not leaning too far back, you know?

Woman: I will try to do better tomorrow.

Michael: No, you were great.

Woman: I kept tipping over. We spent most of our time in the ocean.

Michael: Well, that's what it's there for.

Woman: What is the charge for the lesson?

Michael: Uh, the first one's free with your first rental.

Woman: There must be some way to repay you.

Michael: No, it's okay, I mean, it's part of my job. Uh, I mean, I had a really good time.

Woman: Perhaps dinner.

Michael: With me?

Woman: Because you're such a wonderful teacher.

Michael: [Laughs] I don't know, I mean...

Woman: Tonight at 7:00. I will meet you here.

Michael: I have a date. What am I supposed to do?
