Just give me a minute there… one reader at fanfiction commented me that I should have made Helga know Arnold's last name. Thus, I apologize, since I followed the said episode and forgot that Arnold said his last name to Anne Hathaway. Also, to the person who told me in a review for my story about "why would Anne Hathaway go to P.S. 118 to teach", mind you, it's only fanfiction, so don't contradict this story, it came from a dream.
This chapter shows Arnold and Gerald preparing for Arnold's "date" with the said actress (By the way, she lives in an apartment temporarily for this episode), and also, the said "date".
Now, shall I continue?
Sunset arms boarding house, Arnold's room, at 5:00 pm
Arnold and Gerald were discussing about how to make Arnold's date good and without embarrassment. Gerald said, "Ok, Arnold, we have to start preparing for your first date with an actress." Arnold said, "Why do I have to do this, Gerald?" Gerald said, "Because you have to! If not, she'll be angry at you for not showing up."
Arnold commented, "Why do I have to dress up like this?"
Gerald replied, "Because, clothes make the man! Now, do the walk."
Arnold starts walking around the room and said, "What walk? You mean walk-walk?" Gerald stopped Arnold and corrected him, "No, Arnold, not that way! You have to walk like you're a gentleman! Just to make things better, you better memorize three things: Clothes, Food and Duds." Arnold asked, "Duds?"
Gerald continues, "Duds, meaning mannerisms. If she does these three things, that means she likes you that much!" Arnold said, "Ok, but how?" Gerald told him, "First, she puts these napkins in a neat order. Second, she lights up the candles. And third, she puts in sappy music." Arnold said, "OK, so how will that notify me?"
Gerald said, "Ok, Arnold. Let's practice that walk, and say this: 'you set out a beautiful table my fair senorita, (purrs)'" Arnold asked, "Why do I have to purr?" Gerald said, "Because chicks dig the purr! Now, let's see you do it!" Arnold then practiced his walk and he said, "You set out a beautiful table my fair senorita, (purrs)" Gerald said, "Excellent! Now, one last thing, in case you need me, just call me in this walkie-talkie. But beware, she might enjoy this night and you'll never make it out ok."
Miss Hathaway's residence, 7:30pm
Arnold arrived at the door of Miss Hathaway and he was nervous. He decided to ring the doorbell, and he looked to his right and saw Gerald hiding in a bush, who smiled and gave him a thumbs up. Arnold had his eyes fixed on the door again, and now, Miss Hathaway opened the door, and Anne had opened the door. She was surprised and she said, "Arnold, what are you doing here?"
Arnold interrupted her and said, "Well, am I late or did I went here to early? If I went too early, should I go away and be back after a few minutes?"
Anne said, "Well, I-" Arnold interrupted again and he said, "Wait, I have something for you. Here!" he then showed her a bunch of flowers that he bought from Mrs. Vitello's flowers shop. Anne said, "Oh, thanks Arnold." Then she continues, "Arnold, it's getting late. You should go home now." Arnold said, "Um, you don't understand, Miss Hathaway, you sent me here." Anne said, "Well. Come in. I was just cooking."
Anne said, "Well, it's a good night tonight. I'm preparing for this date so much… It's my greatest day ever." Arnold said, "Um, Miss Hathaway, I didn't know that you put so much effort in this one." Anne said, "That's fine with me, it's a special one, too."
Anne continues, "I baked bread, a Chicken klief (I don't know how the sub teacher said that in the actual episode- Author.), and a lemon pie." Arnold was impressed and he comments, "Wow, you do really put it all together yourself." Anne said, "Yes, this was really special. Well, I must check the pie now." Arnold then said, "You set out a beautiful table my fair senorita." and Anne said, "Muchas gracias." And Arnold answered in a fake sentence: "Oh, enchilada!" Then, Anne said, 'Well, I always like it when I put these napkins in a special way."
Then, all of a sudden, his walkie-talkie just went on (It was Gerald who's trying to contact Arnold) and Anne noticed it. Arnold explained, "Um, Miss Hathaway, you know, my pants, they talk sometimes." Anne giggled while Arnold rushed to her bathroom. There, Gerald asked him,"Did you purr?" Arnold said, "No, I didn't." Gerald complained, "Man, you have to! Did she have light up the candles?" Arnold responded, "Not yet, I'll check. Call you later." Arnold then left the bathroom.
Anne saw him and said, "It's getting late. You should go home now-" Arnold immediately said, "You, You set out a beautiful table my fair senorita, (purrs)" Anne giggled and said, "uh, yes. Thank you. Now, I must light up the candles." Arnold was shocked and he immediately got away and called Gerald.
Arnold said, "Gerald, she's lighting up the candles!" Gerald asked him, "No music yet?" Arnold then heard some sappy music and said, "Did you hear that?" Gerald responded, "Oh yeah, it sounds like Bolero. Looks like she going to terminate!" Arnold said, "Gerald! What am I going to do?" Gerald asked again, "Did you purr?" Arnold yelled, "Gerald, you're not helping! You got me into this mess!" Gerald just said, "It's your problem now." Then Gerald felt something, like he was attacked by more creatures. He panics, "I've got to go! I'm- oh man!" after that, he was no longer heard.
Anne then heard a doorbell and she said, "Coming!" she opened the door and Arnold was shocked to see the real one… the one that Anne is really dating.
Anne introduced, "Arnold, I'd like you to meet my fiancé, Arnold Schelter. We're engaged for seven months now. We'll be getting married." Mr. Schelter said, "Nice to meet you Arnold." Arnold said, "So… you're Arnold." Anne was surprised and Arnold continues, "I'm sorry for the mix-up here. I just thought-" Anne shushed Arnold (McGuire) and said, "Oh, that's ok. I like Arnolds." Arnold said, "Ma'am, I got to go now." Anne said as Arnold walked out of her apartment, "Don't stop being Arnold."
Arnold saw Gerald with a dog and Gerald saw Arnold, meaning it's time to go. As they both go home, Mr. Schelter said, "You set out a beautiful table my fair senorita, (purrs)".
