Justin: We both know why we're here
I see it in your eyes
I guess it calms my fear
To know it's not a surprise
I thought one look at you
Looking like a dream come true
Would leave me speechless like you always do
But now we're wide awake
And we've got some plans to make
Let's take some action, baby
So, baby, give me your hand
Dakota put her hand in Justin's.
I've got some dreams to make true
I've got the future all planned
It's time to get serious
Time to get serious with you
Dakota smiled lovingly.
Dakota: I never thought that I- -
"Uh, honey, I'm not finished."
"Oh, sorry!"
Justin: Since I was two or three
Dakota: (Mm-hmm)
Justin: My life was planned out neat
Dakota: (Mm-hmm)
Justin: I'd get my law degree
Dakota: (Yeah)
Justin: And then win my senate seat
Dakota: (Mm-hmm)
Justin: A big white house back east
Dakota: (Uh-huh)
Justin: All of the amenities
Dakota: (Yeah!)
Justin: Three kids
Both: At least just like the Kennedys
Justin: Here's where our lives begin
Dakota: (Our lives begin)
Justin: But just where do you fit in?
Dakota: Fit me in!
Justin: I'll break it down now, baby
So, baby, give me your hand
Dakota: (Here's my hand! Here's my hand!)
Justin: I've got some dreams to make true
Dakota: We both have dreams to make true
Justin: I know that you'll understand
Dakota: Oh, yes, I understand
Both: It's time to get serious
Time to get serious
Justin: With- -Serious
Dakota: (Serious)
Justin: Gotta wake up and take our journey
Serious
Dakota: (Serious)
Justin: I'm telling you as a future attorney
Dakota: (Ahh)
Justin: You want the moon and sky?
Then take it, don't be shy
Dakota: (Ok!)
Justin: Baby, that's why you and I...
Dakota: (You and I!)
Justin: ...should break up!
Dakota: Yes, baby, I'll give you my hand
We- -WHAT?!
Dakota stared at Justin, wide-eyed.
"You're breaking up with me? But I," she tried to contain herself, "I thought you were, proposing."
Justin helped her sit down.
"Uh, um, yeah, I, uh, I did talk to my parents about that, pooh bear, but they- -"
Dakota wailed when Justin got down on his knee like he was proposing.
Justin stood back up and tried to explain to Dakota.
"But they expect a lot from me, I-I'm going off to Harvard Law School a-and my brother's at Yale Law and so is his new wife and, she's a Vanderbilt, for Christ's sake."
Dakota looked up at him.
"Oh, so am I not good enough for you?," she frowned, "Justin, I'm from Malibu, I'm not exactly trailer trash here, Richard Simmons is are neighbor!"
"Dakota, if I'm gonna be a senator when I'm thirty, I'm gonna need somebody..."
Justin: Serious!
Less of a Marilyn, more of a Jackie
Serious
Somebody classy and not too tacky
"What?!"
Ok, that came out wrong
Dakota sobbed.
Baby, let's both be strong
She sobbed again.
I mean, we've known all along...
"Just shut up."
Dakota got out of her seat and looked at Justin sadly.
"What does that mean, I'm not a Jackie? I'm not serious? But I am seriously in love with you."
She cried softly as she walked to the front door.
Justin watched her leave, sadly.
Baby, my future's all planned
I've got some dreams to make true
She looked back at him one last time before walking out the door.
I thought that you'd understand
It's time to get serious
Time to get serious
He called for a waiter.
"Check please."
