(BLOWAWAYPLAYING)
(SINGING) One of us is gonna be here
And one of us is gonna be runnin'
Off alone into the great unknown
You're not me You're a model of freedom
All you need are your kicks when you need 'em
Come and go Caught that slow all right
With one hand off the side
We get farther away in the blink of an eye
And it's the time we waste
Swallowed into space
It's the time it takes
To blow away
CARL: Grace!
Carl?
- Order's up! - Thank you.
Here, let me top you off there, Jimmy.
I've got that sausage coming right up for you, Dale.
- Enjoy your meal. - Thank you.
Fran, I am digging that new hair.
Did you see her hair?
GRACE: Oh. Terrific.
You want me to take it?
My section, I've got it.
- Hi, Amanda. - Hi.
Guys.
So we made it. Graduation.
Do you mind if we order?
(SIGHS)
Yeah. What can I get for you guys?
(WHISTLING)
EMMA: And what can I do you for?
Let's just see here. You got any specials?
I sure do.
And I saved you a slice.
Hmm.
Hey, Owen.
Grace, how you doing?
Two more days, just two more days.
(PEOPLE APPLAUDING)
Well, we made it!
BOY: Yeah!
(ALL CHEERING)
It's going to be so hard not to look back on these
as the best four years of our lives.
But there is a whole world out there just waiting for us...
(DOOR OPENING)
Sorry. Hi.
Dad, I thought you were gonna wait for me outside.
- AMANDA: A world... - They started.
A whole world just waiting for us to make our mark.
Gandhi once said,
"You must be the change you want to see in the world."
(SQUEALS) Congratulations, kiddo. You did it.
You are finally free.
(SIGHS) This place!
You know, I haven't been here since I didn't graduate.
I was nearly homecoming queen.
And long may you reign. Mama!
What?
Nothing.
Just, uh, there are children here.
Well, it's nice to see you too, Meg.
Mom, what is she doing here?
It's sweet. She wanted to be here.
Oh, come on. You made her come.
ROBERT: Why don't we take a picture?
I'm okay, Robert. I'm fine.
Yes, come on, come on.
Mom.
This is yours.
ROBERT: Everybody get closer.
Closer, Meg, move in.
Scoot in.
Dad, just take the picture.
Pam, I don't want you worrying a bit about Grace on this trip.
I'm going to take good care of her.
That's just great, Emma.
No, thank you.
Mmm. Fine.
Suit yourself.
More for me.
You guys, this is great. Thank you for this.
Don't thank us just yet.
Voilà!
Wow.
What, you don't like it?
No, no, I love it. Thank you, Robert.
That will take you to Paris and straight to NYU in the fall.
It's a Hartmann.
It's nice.
It's a Hartmann.
They're very expensive.
ROBERT: And that's not all.
The next thing is for both my girls.
Got to get used to saying that.
Robert and I were talking and we thought...
BOTH: Yeah?
Well, you and Emma are both heading off to Paris tomorrow.
They are not gonna know what hit 'em.
PAM: And Meg is free for the summer.
And we thought, you know, uh,
why not kick this new sister thing into high gear?
What are you talking about? Do you know what they're talking about?
No, I do not.
Meg is going to Paris, too. (CHUCKLES)
And I'm upgrading everyone!
You would've said no.
No?
No to the sisterhood of the traveling to France?
Are you crazy? Who could pass that up?
Honey, you don't have to do that.
In fact, all through high school, all I could think,
on the few occasions Texas Barbie managed to make it to class, was,
"When I finally do go to Europe,
"I want it to be with Emma Perkins."
Meg.
I don't even know why she's going.
She'd be just as happy at Six Flags on beer night.
Come on. It'll be fun.
I'm not Grace's babysitter.
And I'm not her sister, no matter what
you and Pam do with your lives.
(SIGHS) Why are you doing this to me?
Because I don't know how to make this any better.
You're 21.
You have one year of college left.
You've stayed in every weekend since the funeral.
You should be going out there, with friends.
Going to parties,
living your life.
That's what Mom would've wanted.
Of all the places she traveled,
she always said Paris was her favorite.
EMMA: I guess, on the bright side, is that we are being upgraded.
Not that it's gonna make much of a difference anyway.
Everything is so much better over there already.
OWEN: Everything?
Yeah, they got the clothes and the shoes.
Everything, huh?
Are you not coming in?
Don't go.
It's a week, Owen.
- Just stay here. - You'll be fine.
And marry me.
Yeah.
Owen.
Yeah, I mean, we been real serious for a while,
and I've been thinking about asking you this.
- And where's the ring? - The, uh...
- The ring. - The ring. Uh...
Let me ask you something.
Do you think you'd be asking me to marry you tonight
if I wasn't headed off to the City of Love tomorrow?
I think you mean the City of Lights.
Something big is finally about to happen for me.
And you choose the night before I leave to ask?
Emma, I got everything I want right here in this truck.
Now, how about you?
I've never once been outside of Texas.
Not once.
Well,
you go on, then.
Have yourself a real nice trip.
Owen?
(ENGINE STARTS)
(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO)
Fine.
I will.
And I'll send you a postcard.
Yeah, you do that.
Yeah, I said I will.
I might not be here to get it.
Well, where are you gonna be, huh?
Your "City of Lights"?
PAM: I love Emma. I love her zest.
But you just don't want me to go to Paris alone with her.
No, I don't.
Look, I know you two have gotten close at work, but...
Mom, Emma is my friend.
I appreciate that, Grace,
and I appreciate that Meg is not your first choice,
but knowing that you'll be with a responsible adult...
Meg is whatever comes after adult.
Be generous.
You've seen me.
Mom, I have been saving for this.
This is what's gotten me through the last four years
of pep rallies and cheer squads.
Imagining myself walking along the Seine
and standing on top of the Eiffel Tower.
And having it all just
make me different.
Honey, it's not magic.
It's not going to turn you into a whole different person.
Thank goodness. I'm kind of partial to the one I've got.
Mom, you've found a whole new life with Robert.
And I'm happy for you.
Just let me go find mine.
Without Meg.
Nobody wants you to find your life more than I do.
I have to get to the hospital.
Mom.
Take the upgrade, don't take the upgrade.
That part's up to you.
(CHEERFUL FRENCH SONG PLAYING)
TOUR GUIDE: Welcome to Paris.
MEG: In five days. We're never gonna get to all this stuff.
GRACE: I know it's a lot, Meg,
but there's a lot to see. It's Paris.
Ten, 11, 12 stops tomorrow.
You can't do the Louvre in 20 minutes.
EMMA: It's their museum. I think they know how long it takes.
Now, on your left
was Notre-Dame,
one of the masterpieces of...
I'm sure we'll circle back.
Mmm.
(CHEERFUL FRENCH SONG CONTINUES)
That way. Thank you.
Sacre-Coeur. Let's go. Up.
(LA VIE EN ROSEPLAYING)
Nobody pinch me.
(WHISTLE BLOWING)
Miss! Mademoiselle! That way.
How are they all moving so fast?
Well,
they're not wearing four-inch hoochie heels, for starters.
Let me tell you something about shoes, Meg.
They ain't hurtin',
they ain't helpin'.
Ow! Ow! Ow!
Whew! Much better.
Thank you very much.
No problem, any time.
Oh. Australian.
Mind your step.
Precious cargo.
Good day.
Oh, no more wine. Sorry. Finished, finished. No more.
What is that?
(PROTESTING IN FRENCH)
Eat soon. Quick.
- No, I can't eat that. - WAITER: Pardon.
Uh, I need a fork.
- Well... - TOUR GUIDE: Eat quickly, please.
Uh, I need a spoon.
TOUR GUIDE: Quickly, please. Okay. Thank you. On your right.
You have no luggage?
EMMA: "The Junior Ambassador Suite
"offers luxury accommodation, sumptuous decor,
"and oozes charm."
Oozes.
Guys, the room doesn't matter.
Well, there has to be some kind of mistake.
Oh, yeah, why don't you just toddle downstairs
and sort it all out, en français?
Can we just please make the best of it?
I mean, we'll hardly ever be here.
Look, I'll take the cot.
(EXCLAIMS)
MEG: Oh, look.
I found the spa facilities.
Oh, great. Now find an outlet,
because my phone is dying
and I don't want to miss when Owen calls to apologize.
And when he does,
I need you guys... Oops.
You guys to act like we're having a really good time, okay?
We are having a good time.
No one is having a good time.
How can you complain?
I get it, it's your thing, but come on, we're in Paris.
Ah, bonjour!
EMMA: Got it!
TOUR GUIDE: Everybody off.
(BOTH SPEAKING FRENCH)
Okay.
EMMA: Wow.
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
We're up real high.
You okay?
Yeah.
GRACE: Do you have any change?
EMMA: Meg has got some.
(MEG SIGHS)
Hey, Meg, who's that guy?
What guy?
Dude, that guy clocking you.
That guy, right there.
Wow. You can see everything from up here.
There is the Grand Palais,
Les Invalides.
There's our bus.
GRACE: Oh, yeah. Huh.
Hello, again.
Hi.
Look, there's Madame Valerie.
I saw you at Sacre-Coeur yesterday, didn't I?
EMMA: Wait a second.
Are they...
They're leaving.
My name's Riley. What's yours?
GRACE: Meg, the bus is leaving!
Excuse me! Excuse me!
EMMA: Oh, God.
(KEEP YOUR HEAD PLAYING)
(MEG GROANS)
Wait, the elevator's right here.
We don't have time! Excuse me!
No, wait!
(SINGING) Ten minutes to go
Go, go, go!
Yeah, I've got to go home
Ten minutes to go
Hurry!
Everybody disappear
You're in it on your own
Ten minutes to go
You know you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go
Yeah, you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go...
Emma, come on!
(WHIMPERS)
(EXCLAIMS)
- Stop the bus! - Wait!
Excuse me.
- Don't leave! - Wait!
Excuse me! Excuse me! Wait!
Wait! No! No!
- No! - Come back.
This tour
is ass.
Okay, Meg, it's a disaster! Are you happy?
Hey, it's okay.
No, it's not.
What is the matter with you?
I'm just being honest.
She's right.
I single-handedly chose the worst tour in all of Paris.
How did you choose it?
Meg, I'm not quite up to reviewing my process right now.
So let's just say that I'm sorry, okay?
I'm sorry.
Emma, I'm sorry that you wasted your savings.
No, you got us here.
I'm even sorry that you got dragged into this
and that I'll have to hear about it every
Thanksgiving and Christmas
for the next however many years.
Grace.
But most of all,
I'm sorry that I ever thought I was the kind of person that could come to Paris.
I'm sorry. Can we just leave it at that?
(EMMA SHRIEKS)
(EMMA GROANS)
How far is our hotel?
Wait, where you going?
Inside.
She's here. Cordelia!
Cordelia, please!
Grace, wait!
What?
What in the heck was that all...
Oh, nice and big.
MEG: There she is.
No ticket? No itinerary?
I am sorry, but there is nothing.
And how do you propose I travel to Monte Carlo in the morning?
(CRYING)
Hey, Grace, it's okay.
Yeah, yeah, Grace, you just got to pull it together.
Okay, don't!
Don't be sweet
and don't be whatever it is that you are.
Just don't talk to me.
(DOOR SLAMS)
Meg.
These are cloth.
Mademoiselle Scott, Mademoiselle Scott... No, Miss Scott,
I explain to you.
I have checked and there is nothing. No sign of package.
(EXHALES)
Does anyone here speak English?
This is not English we are speaking?
It's me, Cordelia.
Yes, I'm still in Paris.
Mother's forcing me to go to some charity thing to repair my rep.
I don't know. Polar bears, hungry people.
Where are you?
Majorca! Hmm.
If I leave now, I can catch a flight
and be on the beach by the morning.
No, I won't even check out.
Mummy will think I'm off doing her errand.
By the time she works out that I'm not there or here...
Let me call you when I get to the airport.
GRACE: Emma.
It may take a while.
It appears to be raining...
GRACE: Can you hand me a towel?
...quite hard.
(SIGHS) Thanks for nothing.
Who was that head case?
Who does she think she is?
(SIGHS)
EMMA: I'm telling you, trust us.
GRACE: You guys, easy.
Look at this. Look, with her hair pulled back.
(GASPS) You look just like her.
I look nothing like her.
You didn't even see her.
I heard her.
Yeah, that's the same thing.
That's crazy.
- Look this way. - You guys are like twins.
Stop it!
Scowl. (GROWLS) Do it.
If only you were British.
(IN ENGLISH ACCENT) Poor me.
Mummy wants me to help people, poor people.
But I hate poor people.
How are you doing that? That's really creepy.
Who cares?
It kind of sounds like a mean Mary Poppins. I like it, do more.
Okay. I want to go to Spain.
I want to see my friends. I want a golden goose.
Excuse me, Miss Scott. Good news.
The courier successfully located your package.
(IN NORMAL VOICE) Oh, no, I'm not...
She's not...
No. No, there has been a mistake.
Yes, yes, we know.
We are so, so sorry.
Your package will be here in the morning.
In the meantime,
we have found, as you requested,
a 26-pound langouste.
(IN ENGLISH ACCENT) I shall take it in my room.
In the room.
(SIGHS)
Can you imagine having a room like this and not even staying in it?
Yeah. So, we're not staying here.
Meg, you watching?
Great, now we have to make the bed.
GRACE: Meg, can you just...
EMMA: Relax. GRACE: We're just resting.
Oh!
Chocolate.
Mmm!
It's like money.
Meg, come on, it's been a really long day.
Let's... Let's bond.
Fine.
(SIGHS) Okay.
Just until it stops raining.
(PHONE RINGING)
Hello.
Oui?
Oui, oui?
What time is it?
Oui, oui?
Meg.
Meg! Hey, wake up.
Oh, frak! Who fell asleep?
Oui!
What did they say?
I'm not a hundred percent sure,
but I think my car is here.
MANAGER: Oh, Mademoiselle Scott!
Just keep moving.
Miss Scott.
Miss Scott!
Miss Scott, your package. Your package has arrived this morning.
Take it. Just take it.
Merci.
Let's help you to your car.
No! We're fine.
MANAGER: Oh, yes, please! GRACE: Thank you, again.
Miss Scott.
(ALL CLAMORING)
Your car is waiting.
No, thank you. But we'll walk.
But you cannot walk to the airport.
- Airport? - Yeah.
Airport. Thank you.
No! No, we're not...
Au revoir!
MEG: They really do think you're her.
(STAMMERS)
What? I want to know where we're going.
We're going back to our crap tour.
We are going to Monte Carlo.
Wherever that is.
Hilarious.
Grace, what does "privé"mean? Is that an airline?
Let me see this.
See, Grace wants to go.
Forget it.
The trip is paid for, whether Cordelia takes it or not.
And she is a million miles away.
It's stealing.
It's seizing the moment.
We will get caught.
And then you'll get to say, "I told you so."
Like you're going to pass that up.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
Warm nuts.
I am never flying commercial again.
I shouldn't.
Oh!
Hello. Let's read all about you.
Wait a minute, that's her?
I don't look anything like that.
No, no, she has a better nose.
It's a better slope.
Mmm!
"Jet-setting heiress Cordelia Winthrop Scott..."
You're an heiress.
"...was caught by paparazzi in Reykjavik when she..."
Oh.
- Escandalo. - What?
Cordelia, you are a bad, bad girl.
Give me that.
What did I do?
What didn't you do?
(THANKING IN FRENCH)
(APOLOGIZING IN FRENCH)
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
- And I'm here. - Late.
I still made it before the little monster arrived.
Look, here it is.
Miss Scott!
On behalf of the Marchand Family Foundation
and Save the Children,
it's my pleasure to welcome you to Monte Carlo.
I am Bernard Marchand and my son, Theo.
Miss Scott.
And you've brought some friends?
(IN ENGLISH ACCENT) Uh, yes, this is Emma Perkins and Meg Kelly.
Friends from the States that I picked up somehow.
Just follow my lead.
Beaujolais! How do you do?
(IN FRENCH)
It's pleasure to meet you.
I hope we're not disturbing you.
- Meg speaks French. - Yeah, I just got that.
BERNARD: Let's get you settled
and Theo will be back to pick you up this evening.
Yes, I will escort you to the ball.
This keeps getting better and better.
I'm sorry, the what?
The ball.
Ball?
The Prince's ball. The one being thrown in her honor.
Oh, that ball.
Yes, that ball.
- Perfect. - THEO: Come on, please.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
MEG: Thank you. Merci.
Thank you. Thank you.
Merci. Thank you. Thank you.
We've got to get out of here.
Why?
This is all paid for. You never leave when it's paid for.
What are they teaching you in college?
Emma, Meg is right. This is too crazy.
You guys.
You don't take somebody's private jet to Monte Carlo...
But you made us!
...find out they're throwing you a ball in your honor
and then go, "Oh, no, I couldn't possibly!"
You go.
Is this a real conversation?
Emma,
we are way out of our league.
They're going to see right through me.
Grace, you'll be fine.
Just keep up the accent and look down your nose.
I'm sure Meg can help you out with that.
You know, I'm out, okay?
This was never part of the plan. I'm out.
(SIGHS) The plan.
You know what the problem is with you two?
It's that you are exactly alike.
- We are nothing alike. - We are nothing alike.
Hmm.
Okay, fine, you kids want a plan?
Here is the plan.
We go to that ball,
real Cordelia gets to play hooky for a few days,
Frere Jacques gets his charity girl,
and we
all get the vacation that I deserve.
(SIGHS) How's that for a plan?
(GASPS)
All right, I'll tell you one thing right now, heels are a no.
Grace Bennett
in an Oscar de la Renta.
Oh, I just did my make-up.
Save the tears for the police.
Can you just for one minute...
Nice, Meg.
Thank you.
Y'all, I think mine is on backwards.
Or maybe the other me has a little more going on upstairs.
Just feels like something...
Is missing?
Maybe two things.
No. Just one.
(BRIGHTLIGHTS BIGGER CITY PLAYING)
You're late.
He's so mean.
Are you coming?
Thank you.
So ding-dangy delicious.
(SINGING) So I guess I'll have to wait and see
How is Owen?
But I'm just gonna let something brand new happen to me
And it's all right
It's all right It's all right
Bright lights and the big city
Belong to us tonight...
(ALL CLAMORING)
Say, Owen.
Hey, man, how you doing?
What are you hearing from the girls?
Nothing much.
Paris, man, that is far out.
Yeah, how so?
We don't call it the City of Love for nothing.
It's the City of Lights.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
(GROANS)
Hello.
Hello, who's this?
Who's this?
- It's Owen. - (GIGGLES)
Is that Emma? Is Emma there?
She is...
She's what?
Not available to you.
Not available to me.
Yeah, well, we'll see about that.
(CAR ENGINE STARTING)
EMMA: Would you relax? She is with French fry.
I thought you were keeping an eye on her.
No, no, no.
We need to stay focused.
Why?
MAN: Hello.
Focus, Meg.
You're ridiculous.
(WHISPERING) Why do people keep staring? Is something slipping?
It's the necklace.
Your donation for Friday's auction.
For Friday's auction.
On Friday.
Because I'll be here
all week.
Oh. My father says we can build 20 schools
with the money we will raise.
That's amazing.
That's a lot of futures you're changing.
It almost makes dressing up worth it.
Well, people are maybe looking at your necklace,
but me, I have been admiring the boots.
- Theo. - Dom, how are you?
Good. You?
This is Cordelia Winthrop Scott.
Prince Domenico da Silvano.
Oh, uh, how do you do?
Fine, thank you.
Hello.
- Hey, how you doing? - MEG: Yeah, hi.
Hey, Cordelia, you were supposed to wait by the door.
I was, but then he had me working the room.
DOM: Would you care to dance?
No, thank you, Dom.
He's not talking to you.
Enchantée.
My father is very grateful to your aunt.
She persuaded your mother to donate to our charity.
My aunt?
MEG: Alicia Winthrop Scott was married to your late Uncle William.
How do you know that?
Well, hello, it's called HELLO! magazine for a reason.
He died two years ago on safari.
Who? What?
Okay, you were born in Shropshire, parents divorced.
Schooled at Le Rosey, but you were expelled
because you set your roommate's hair on fire
in her sleep.
Cordelia!
Aunt Alicia! Oh.
Well, don't you look lovely.
I'm so glad to see that you're here.
Well, where else would I be than here,
in Monte Carlo, where I'm supposed to be?
At my ball, Aunt Alicia.
(CHUCKLES)
Yes.
I just wanted to come and verify your presence for myself.
Some peace of mind for your poor mother.
Well, lovely to see you. Now if you'll excuse me.
There's something different about you.
Different?
Yes. Yes, I can't quite put my finger on it.
People do change, Aunt Alicia.
Well, here's hoping.
I'm bored.
You can report back to Mother that I'm doing as told.
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I want to dance.
Excuse me.
Well, you two seem very close.
Mmm-hmm.
Everything is okay?
I'm so worried about Cordelia.
(LOVE TODAYPLAYING)
(SINGING) I've been crying for so long
Fighting tears just to carry on
How long are you here in Monte Carlo?
As long as possible, Dom.
Really?
Emma. We got to go.
No, I'm good.
Emma!
Dom is a prince.
Okay, my aunt is here.
Aunt Brenda?
Where?
Aunt Alicia,
here to see her favorite niece, Cordelia.
Oh. That's bad.
And we have to stay here till Friday.
Oh, that's good.
She totally bought it.
You see? We're good.
Meg, come on.
No, I'm telling you, she thinks you're Cordelia!
- You were just crazy enough! - DOM: Excuse me,
I'm going to dance with her. Sorry.
It was thrilling.
Hello.
Hi.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
- Uh, excusez-moi... - Bonjour.
I'm looking for a taxi.
- Taxi? - Yeah.
Okay, you have a taxi station just over here. Straight on.
- Merci. - You're welcome.
WAITER: Mademoiselle Scott?
Oh, thank you.
Mmm.
(SIGHS) This is so nice.
(ALARM BEEPS)
Time to flip.
You have to rotate every three minutes for optimal coverage.
It's a science.
Biology is a science.
Hey, Meg.
Classy.
You know,
I picked out a dress for you.
I fixed your eyebrows.
Why are you picking a fight with me?
I'm not.
Always. Little digs.
I know what you think of me.
You have no idea how little I think about you.
You see, Grace, she's just not happy
unless everybody around her is miserable.
- Emma. - Trust me,
I forgot about you the minute you left high school.
(SCOFFS)
And so did everybody else.
Yeah, right.
And who quits high school for a catalog shoot in Dallas?
I was on the cover.
Of a Clip 'n' Save. You are so delusional.
Okay, you know what this is? We had a big night last...
You know what your problem is? It's that you are just jealous.
Jealous? You're a waitress.
Your best friend is an 18-year-old girl.
- Excuse me? - And your boyfriend...
Okay, who died and made you such a...
Emma!
That's not what I meant.
(SIGHS)
If you'll excuse me.
- Meg, she didn't... - Nice friend.
Okay.
Ma petite-amie. Emma. You answered her phone.
Come on, help me out. She's my fiancée. Here, take a look.
Have you seen?
Yeah, you know her. Where did she go?
- But she's gone. - Oh!
Well, yeah...
But where?
(SIGHS)
Hey, Meg.
Riley?
Hey.
Hi.
You're not following me, are you?
Following?
No. No, I didn't...
You okay?
I'm good. (CHUCKLES)
So, where's your bus?
It left us behind a long time ago.
Stupid bus.
Cordelia!
Oh, hey. What's up?
You're late.
Late for what?
- Are you... - What?
You sound... Something different.
Chip-chop, spit-spot, come on, let's go!
Off we go! Quickly, come on!
Let's go.
Okay.
Did somebody get flowers?
Meg?
Grace?
Me.
(EXHALES) "Emma, please allow me the honor..."
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da...
"I'll pick you up at 8:00. Domenico."
(SNIFFING)
Cheers, thank you.
- Okay, all right. - Yeah?
All right, this is what you've been waiting for.
Bring it on. I want to see this.
I mean to just...
(LAUGHS)
- All right, I'll have a go. - All right.
You want to? Go?
Ready?
Go ahead.
- There we go. That's it. - You actually know how to do it.
That's good.
Bonjour, Lucille, this is Mademoiselle Scott.
Lucille will take care of you, she'll show you to your room.
Where are you going?
I have to go change.
- Change? - I'll see you on the field.
ALICIA: Cordelia!
There you are.
Ah, Aunt Alicia.
I'd love to stay and chat,
but I must change, so...
Really!
Merci.
Polo, how hard can it be?
Hey! I think we are going the other way.
Oh, right. See, at home they usually just bring the ball to me.
Right. The other way. Okay.
Go right. (CLICKS TONGUE)
Your niece plays with spirit.
Usually with more finesse than spirit.
(PEOPLE APPLAUDING)
(I WANT THE SKYPLAYING)
(SINGING) I'm ready, ready to run free
That's a nice one.
Thank you.
I'd like to know what lies beyond the blue sea
You live once, so drink the honey
(WHOOPS)
I learn my lessons from the birds and the bees
I want the sky to open wide
Illuminate this fire inside
I want the sky
So, you just go wherever you like?
Yeah, that's the idea.
For how long?
I'll let you know when I'm done.
And your parents are okay with this?
I think they were just happy to see me walk out of there, you know?
What, did they say you'd never walk again or something?
I was never much good at being told what I couldn't do.
But I was in hospital for a year just flat on my back.
I hate hospitals.
My teammates would come and visit in the beginning,
but after a while,
I was just a reminder of what could happen to them.
Bad fall,
get hit in the wrong place, never play rugby again.
Anyway,
trekking around for a while
just seemed like the best way back.
You miss your mum.
I can't find my way back.
I went to the hospital to see her every day she was there.
Almost two years.
That's a long time.
Not long enough.
(SIGHS)
Everyone was so nice, and understanding, and comforting, and...
I just wanted to scream.
Do it.
Go on. Scream.
Just do it.
Look, I won't even listen. I won't listen.
I can't.
(LAUGHS)
(RINGING)
Come on, hit the ball. Cordelia!
- What? - The ball. Take it!
This is Cordelia.
Hello?
(SPECTATORS APPLAUDING)
Who is this?
Is it all right if I take her? I'd love to brush her down.
- Really? - Yeah, I've got her.
Odd.
You've never been one to clear up after yourself.
A new leaf, a new me.
It appears you've made a friend.
I know. Isn't she a beauty?
Remember that darling pony you had as a girl?
What was its name again?
My childhood, please! You know I never look back.
Oh, you remember the black one
with the little white star on his forehead.
Yes. Uh...
The one with the star.
I called him Blaze.
Blaze?
I really should get her back to the stables, so...
The resemblance is astonishing.
But Cordelia rides English saddle.
And you, if I'm not mistaken, were taught to ride Western.
Heaven forbid.
I'm just a little out of practice, that's all.
Well, this is a new low even for Cordelia.
To hire a look-alike to stand in her stead
at a charity event organized just for her
while she's off partying.
I don't know if it's the champagne
or the sunlight that's got to you.
Oh, I will call security immediately.
No, you can't. The charity!
Look, I promise you
that I will do whatever is expected of Cordelia tomorrow.
I'm not about to stand in the way of helping those kids.
Are you?
BERNARD: Alicia.
No one must ever know. Is that clear?
Crystal.
Here you are. What a wonderful match.
I was just congratulating Cordelia.
The ambassador is ready for us.
Oh. Shall we?
If you muck this up, you will have me to answer to.
Both of you. Pass it on.
Oh.
(SIGHS)
Bling, bling, bling, bling, bling, bling, bling...
Who are you hiding from?
Hey.
You ride very well.
It's one of the two things my father taught me.
And the other?
(WHISTLES)
(HORSES NEIGHING)
(LAUGHING)
It's actually more handy than you might think.
(BLOWS)
No, here. Put your fingers like this
and now curl your tongue like that.
Now you try.
(SPUTTERING)
(LAUGHING)
That's terrible.
Well, I'll work on it.
I think you should.
You're not what I expected.
No?
You're different.
Different?
Different is good.
Is it?
You make me think it is.
You make me feel different.
Sorry.
Why?
Mostly I always feel the same.
Same people, same conversations, same parties.
None of it means anything.
But you help people.
I mean, you're raising money, building schools.
I wish I were part of something that important.
But that's my father. That's not me.
I do nothing.
I've never been to those schools.
I've never been to Africa, to Romania.
I'm only faking my way through.
GRACE: I know what that feels like.
But there is nothing fake about you.
I want to show you something.
(MOUNTAIN AND THE SEA PLAYING)
(SINGING) You call me a mountain
And I call you the sea
You can move me if you want to...
Thank you.
And then we're gonna go meet his friends
and then we're gonna go dancing!
Meg, what has gotten into you?
I know.
(SIGHS)
I'm sorry.
Me, too.
Oh. (LAUGHS)
Hey, mate.
What?
The necklace.
There's the Meg that I know.
What were you thinking?
Stay classy, Meg.
RILEY: You good?
Yeah. I'm perfect.
(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
First class.
(TAKE IT EASYPLAYING)
(SINGING) Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you
Relax, take it easy
(LAUGHING)
(ALL CHATTERING IN FRENCH)
Jerome.
Merci.
Excuse me.
There are people for that.
Yeah, I know.
THEO: Give me your hand.
GRACE: Thank you.
Wow.
THEO: I'm trying to impress you.
GRACE: Mmm. So far, so good.
When I was little, I had a snow globe of the Eiffel Tower,
and when you wound it up it played
La Vie En Rose.
(LA VIE EN ROSEPLAYING)
And when I shook it, the snow inside sparkled.
(HUMMING)
LOUIS ARMSTRONG: (SINGING) When you kiss me, heaven sighs
It was magical.
Just like this.
I see la vie en rose
Just wait.
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak
Look at this one.
Angels sing from above
Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
This is amazing!
(LAUGHING)
And life will always be
La vie en rose
I had a lovely time tonight.
Me, too, Cordelia.
Theo, I need to tell you something.
- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS) - Yeah, sure, please.
Hi, good evening.
Maybe tomorrow.
All right, then tomorrow.
I'll see you at the auction, all right?
Bonsoir.
(CHATTERING IN FRENCH ON TV)
Emma?
I'm in here.
- GRACE: Hey. - Hey.
Domenico?
Mmm-hmm.
What are you watching?
Grace Kelly.
(SIGHS)
You know how on Hastings Avenue,
how all the houses are set way back?
With the front walks and big lawns and driveways.
I always wondered about the kind of people that lived there.
You know, the kind of people with
the dimmer switches on their lights.
I thought Owen and I were gonna
live in a house like that one day.
(SIGHS) It's crazy.
It's not crazy.
So stupid.
I don't need a fancy house.
I just need Owen.
Grace, what if I blew it?
Emma...
Oh, hey.
Hey, don't you worry about it.
Okay?
We'll work it out.
We always do.
I know. I know you will.
Then what?
I just...
I finally meet a guy who likes me for me,
and I'm not even me.
But I feel like I am when I'm with him.
If Theo finds out, he's gonna hate me.
Grace, trust me.
Once he knows the real you,
the Grace that I know,
he's just gonna know how lucky he is.
You think?
I knew it from the minute I laid eyes on you.
(SIGHS)
You're going places, kid.
Wait.
Where's Meg?
Close your eyes.
(LAUGHS) Do it.
Where did you find that?
For you.
Hmm.
Now, run.
Hey!
(PROTESTS IN FRENCH)
(PRODDING IN FRENCH)
- Bonjour. - Bonjour.
(SIGHS)
This is me.
Back up to the old Grimaldi Suite.
You're staying here?
Yeah. Sort of an upgrade.
Offer stands, Meg.
It's not as posh as this.
There's a place in Tuscany.
You just pitch your tent right on the beach.
And
the company is good.
I wish I could.
The train leaves at noon if you change your mind.
Change your mind.
(SIGHS)
Have a nice trip.
You, too, Meg.
GRACE: Meg? Meg?
Hey!
Where have you been?
Will you relax? It's okay, she is right here.
The article said millions, Emma.
Yeah, I heard you the first hundred times.
On my neck.
I'm not going to relax until that thing is back in its case.
What is going on with you two?
Can you please just give her the necklace?
What necklace?
Oh! Riley!
It's in his backpack. I put it in his backpack to be safe!
GRACE: Backpack? Wait!
Wait! What?
Whose backpack?
Riley's.
Okay, so Riley has it. Where is he staying?
He's not. He's gone.
He stole the necklace?
No, Emma, he didn't steal anything.
He's getting on a train to Italy.
Are you kidding me?
At noon.
How far is the train station from here?
PHOTOGRAPHERS: Cordelia! Cordelia!
Oh, hey, what's she doing here?
Oh! Mademoiselle Scott.
Room key.
Faster.
(KEYS RATTLING)
Sorry.
Pillow, there.
Now the blankets.
Nobody in Majorca knew...
Cordelia?
Right.
Cordelia.
(SIGHS) Hold on, Victoria.
Yes?
Good morning.
Forgot how I hate the French.
Do not even think about it.
(SHRIEKS)
Shanghai?
Well, can you wait for me?
I just have this tiresome auction I have to deal with.
I suppose it...
(INVITING IN FRENCH)
Well, let's just...
I was meant to have a suite.
Put those in there.
Wait. Wait.
Stavros is supposed to be here, isn't he?
I don't see his boat.
He's in Mykonos.
PORTER: Mademoiselle?
Hold on.
Yes?
If you have finished, you may go.
- Emma, go. - No, I can't move.
- Move! - You have to go!
Do it! Go.
(EXHALING) Okay, okay.
Oh, God.
- Don't look down. - I'm sorry.
I looked down.
Okay.
EMMA: I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe.
Emma, stop it. It's over!
Calm down. Shh!
(RATTLING DOORS)
It's locked.
Come on.
It's locked, too!
Oh, no.
No, no, no. Meg!
Wait, no!
Wait!
No, no, no! Wait!
No! No!
- The train. - The necklace.
Riley.
Yes, I'm here, Mother.
So unfair. I never get to see my friends.
I never do what I want.
When is it going to be my turn?
Ugh!
(SCREAMING)
You know what?
Let's just get on a train and go.
I can't.
I pretended to be that girl and now I lost her necklace.
You didn't lose her necklace.
I did.
No, I did.
Well, I lied
to Theo, about everything.
I have to go back.
- What? - I have to fix this.
Or at least try.
Okay.
Okay, we go back.
We'll explain. Maybe she'll understand.
Fat chance.
Could you be a little positive?
One night out and look at you.
Cheers, mate.
Excuse me, excuse me.
I was wondering if you could tell me
where the Grimaldi Suite is, please.
- (PHONE RINGING) - Pardon.
Hello?
This is Cordelia Winthrop Scott.
I've been robbed. Call the police.
Robbed! I will call securité.
No, I said police! Call the police!
Yes, securité.
No, I said police! Call the...
Oh, forget it! I'll do it myself!
Securité.
(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)
Securité.
Mademoiselle Scott?
GRACE: Hello, Francois. EMMA: Hi.
You still need securité?
ALL: No, no, no.
You're still robbed?
No, no, no.
- MEG: That's crazy. - Yeah!
Police? I'm calling to report a robbery at the Hotel de Paris.
This is Cordelia Winthrop Scott.
Someone has been robbed?
No, nobody.
Theo! Nobody has been robbed. We're all right.
But you...
How are you?
Are you teasing me?
Teasing you? No.
Well, because this feels like a game.
(IN NORMAL VOICE) It's not a game. Not to me.
But I do need to tell you something.
And she will.
Later.
But the auction!
Back in 10.
Oh.
I'll be right back.
Okay?
It starts in five minutes. Ladies, five minutes.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
I don't understand women.
RILEY: Perfectly good pear.
(EXHALES)
Grimaldi.
(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)
Riley!
Meg!
The necklace!
Do not touch that bell!
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
Bonjour.
Hi. I need to find this girl.
Have you seen her?
Oui.
You came back.
I found your necklace.
Thought it was a pretty good excuse for a second shot.
Wait for me in the lobby.
You got it.
- Don't leave. - I'm not going anywhere.
Pardon me.
Hold on one second there, boss.
You're telling me that Emma is staying here?
I told you this. Mademoiselle Scott's friend.
Now, pardon.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
(INQUIRING IN FRENCH)
(DOORBELL CHIMING)
Finally...
We can explain.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
(RESISTING IN FRENCH)
- GRACE: Listen... - Save your sorries for the police.
Wait, wait. The police?
Oh, please!
But it's right here. I have it.
Exactly! You have it!
MEG: Look, this wasn't planned.
It's just a case of mistaken identity.
It's impersonation and it's a crime,
one I'm putting a stop to this instant.
- But the auction... - Oh!
Let me assure you that there will be no auction now.
Hey! People are counting on her!
(STAMMERING) Or on you... What?
That's not my problem.
Don't touch the phone.
Or what?
I promise you it is a false alarm.
She said everything was fine.
Quoi?
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
But why am I speaking English?
CORDELIA: No!
You let me up.
Now what do we do?
- Cordelia? - RECEPTIONIST: Mademoiselle?
Help! Mmm!
(SQUEALING)
Mademoiselle, open the door!
GRACE: Just a minute.
Give me the...
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
Bonjour.
- Hello. - Hi.
Mademoiselle.
Excusez-moi. We had a call. There was a robbery?
Oh, no. A misunderstanding.
You see?
MEG: Yes, she couldn't find her necklace.
What? Where is she?
I'm right here.
RECEPTIONIST: There she is.
Bonjour, mademoiselle.
Bonjour.
Theo, could you help me?
I can't quite manage the clasp.
But tell me, we heard a scream.
Oh!
When she found the necklace,
right now, she was so, so happy.
(WHISPERING) What's going on here?
Relieved.
Oh, really?
Yes, I'm very sorry to have wasted your time.
Well,
allow me to escort you, mademoiselle, you know, as a precaution.
Would you? I'm afraid I'm already late.
Right, Theo? Theo?
Coming, Meg?
Yes.
Right behind you.
(RECEPTIONIST THANKING IN FRENCH)
How's it going in here?
Oh, we're good.
Just getting acquainted.
We will...
We'll let you go as soon as the auction is over.
Be right back.
MEG: Oh, come on.
Come on.
(WHISPERING) Promise
that whatever happens,
you'll think of the girl you showed the fireworks to.
That was me.
Grace? Meg!
Owen! What are you doing here?
What's with... Where's Emma?
She's upstairs.
Meg, is everything all right?
Yeah, everything's fine.
Where upstairs?
Trust me, you don't want to go up there.
- (IN ENGLISH ACCENT) Meg? - Yes?
- Are you coming? - Coming.
Why is she talking like that?
(GROANS) She's not.
Please, both of you, just stay here.
Hey, mate.
Third floor. Grimaldi Suite.
What did you tell him?
It's fine, he's waiting with Riley.
BERNARD: (ANNOUNCING) Miss Cordelia Winthrop Scott.
We've got this.
I'm really glad you came, Meg.
I wouldn't miss this for the world.
(APPLAUSE)
You will never get away with this.
Honey, we've been getting away with this for days.
(DOORBELL CHIMING)
You... What?
Don't mess with Texas.
(EXCLAIMS)
Emma.
Owen?
- What are you... - What are you doing here?
(STAMMERING) What am I doing here?
What am I doing here? I've been
running all over Paris looking for you.
Hi.
BERNARD: 1,000,000 euros.
1,500,000.
We have a bid for 1.5.
1,700,000.
Marvelous!
1,700,000.
Do I hear two?
You went all the way to Paris for me?
I don't want to lose you, Emma.
Maybe I was trying to fence you in a bit.
Guess I was just worried
that once you saw everything there was to see here,
you wouldn't come back.
Owen...
And look, I'm sorry for that,
because I don't ever want to keep you from something better.
Emma, you deserve the best.
But I already have the best.
Yeah?
Yeah.
(THUD)
What was that?
(GRUNTING)
So, Paris. It's pretty awesome, right?
What was that?
- What was what, honey? - You heard it.
- No, I didn't. - Is someone in there?
What? Is someone in here? No.
Emma, what's going on?
Oh, shoot.
OWEN: Grace?
(LOUD APPLAUSE)
BERNARD: We have a bid for 2.5.
Who will bid 3,000,000 euros?
Anyone?
(IN NORMAL VOICE) It's too much.
Mesdames et messieurs, who will take us to 3,000,000?
Can I have...
Please, I'm sorry.
But,
my dear, what is wrong?
It's okay.
There's something I need to say.
Of course.
What is it, Cordelia?
Gandhi once said...
Gandhi?
...that you must be the change you wish
to see.
This necklace isn't mine.
(ALL MURMURING)
CORDELIA: No, it's mine.
Arrest her, she's an imposter.
Arrest her.
It's true. I'm not Cordelia Scott.
There, you see?
I'm just a regular girl from Texas.
I'm no one special,
but I had the chance to be,
even if it was only for a minute, and I took it.
We all did.
And we're sorry.
I know what I did was wrong
and I don't expect you to forgive me.
But it wasn't all a lie.
I thought you were different.
- $3,000,000. - (ALL GASP)
Owen.
We're from Texas, we go big.
He doesn't have any money.
Look at them, none of them do.
- Arrest them. - It's okay.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean...
Look, you all came here to help those kids.
Please don't let my mistake get in the way of that.
I may not deserve your help,
but they do.
ALICIA: 6,000,000 euros.
(ALL GASPING)
I would like to bid 6,000,000 euros
for the necklace...
Aunt Alicia?
...on that young woman's neck,
whomever she may be.
What are you doing?
I'm doing precisely as she has asked.
I'm helping.
Sold for 6,000,000 euros to one Miss Scott.
(CHUCKLING) Yeah!
No! But?
Thank you.
Why are you just standing there? Arrest them!
For what? They seem very nice.
They stole my necklace.
But the necklace is here, no?
Well, they kidnapped me and they tied me up.
And yet, you too are here.
I see no problem, everybody is very happy.
Excuse me, but I am not happy.
Hmm.
But this I can do nothing about.
So, where to?
Let's go home.
GRACE: I don't know, Meg. Have you really thought about this?
No! No, not at all.
But what did you tell your dad?
Well, I told him I'd call and check in every day,
that I won't tell him everything I'm doing,
that I'll be back in August,
and then
I hung up very quickly.
(LAUGHS)
You,
take care of my sister.
RILEY: Precious cargo.
My driver will take you to the airport.
Bye, you two lovebirds.
Please tell Theo I said goodbye.
I will be sure to.
And that he was right.
I am different.
He knows that.
But I'll tell him.
Thank you.
Bye.
- Au revoir! - See you later.
Au revoir.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Hi, Mom.
Yeah, we had an amazing time.
(CHUCKLES)
(BOTH SCREAMING)
(RILEY WHOOPING)
(BOTH LAUGHING)
Just like that.
Try it out.
Hey, Grace, I need somebody to run to the post office.
I'll do it.
ARCHITECT: That was it.
Yes, all right.
Now I am going to show you the foundation of the new stadium,
which is possibly to be ready by the end of the month.
We will have new lighting for each classroom,
and the computers will be here by September.
Superbe. Fine.
Thank you very much.
ARCHITECT: So, what do you think?
THEO: Well,
it's amazing.
This follows the same model as you saw it in Rajasthan.
This is the dormitory?
Yes, for about 100 children.
And on the other side we have the garden.
Excuse me one moment.
Grace!
(MUFFLED) Grace!
Grace!
(WHISTLES)
Theo.
What are you doing here?
I'm working.
What are you doing here?
I'm volunteering.
I don't think that we've properly met.
I'm Grace Bennett.
Theo Marchand.
It's nice to meet you.
(BLAME ITON THE GIRLS PLAYING)
(SINGING) He's got looks that books take pages to tell
He's got a face to make you fall on your knees
He's got money in the bank to thank and I guess
You could think he's livin'at ease
Like lovers on the open shore What's the matter?
When you're sitting there with so much more
What's the matter?
While you're wondering what the hell to be
Are you wishing you were ugly like me?
Blame it on the girls who know what to do
Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you
Blame it on your mother for the things she said
Blame it on your father but you know he's dead
Blame it on the girls
Blame it on the boys
Blame it on the girls
Blame it on the boys
Blame it on the girls
Blame it on the boys

(SINGING) Wouldn't wanna be anybody else, hey
You made me insecure
Told me I wasn't good enough
But who are you to judge
When you're a diamond in the rough
I'm sure you got some things
You'd like to change about yourself
But when it comes to me
I wouldn't wanna be anybody else
(VOCALIZING)
I'm no beauty queen
I'm just beautiful me

Who says you're the only one that's hurting
Trust me That's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty
Who says you're not beautiful
Who says?
It's such a funny thing
How nothing's funny when it's you
You tell them what you mean
But they keep whiting out the truth
It's like a work of art
That never gets to see the light
Keep you beneath the stars
Won't let you touch the sky

I'm no beauty queen
I'm just beautiful me
