263: INT. PAISLEY PARK (STUDIO) DAY FADE IN: 

One month later, Valentines Day, 1991. Rachael is back in the studio working on her next album. 

RACHAEL: You know, it's really shitty that you're making me work Valentines Day. 

PRINCE: Oh relax Rach, we'll be done in no time, plus, I've got a date tonight! 

RACHAEL: Ooh! Who with? 

PRINCE: One of my new backup singers, Mayte. 

RACHAEL: Maybe we can double date sometime! 

PRINCE: Yeah, sure, get in the booth. 

RACHAEL: (gets in the booth) 

PRINCE: All right, let's do "Sweet, Sweet Smile." (plays the track) 

RACHAEL: (starts singing)
You're always in my heart
From early in the morning till it's dark
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
When I wake up in the morning and I see you there
I always whisper a little prayer
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
I got to know that you love me
And that you want me
And that you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
And I got to feel your arms around me
And that you need me
And you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
If my times are bringing me down
You're the only one that I want around
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
And if I'm all strung out
You're the only one who can straighten me out
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
I got to know that you love me
And that you want me
And that you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
And I got to feel your arms around me
And that you need me
And you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
I got to know that you love me
And that you want me
And that you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
And I got to feel your arms around me
And that you need me
And you'll always be there
I got to know that you care
You're always in my heart
From early in the morning till it's dark
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day
I got to see your sweet, sweet smile every day! 

MICHAEL: (smiles lovingly) And I will always be there! 

RACHAEL: Michael? Hey sweetie! (hugs him tightly) What are you doing here? 

MICHAEL: I had an early day at the studio today so I figured I'd come pick you up! 

RACHAEL: Awww! You're so sweet! (kisses him) 

MICHAEL: You ready to go? 

PRINCE: Not so fast Mikey, she's got two more songs to record, at least until Mayte gets here that is. 

MICHAEL: Mayte? You got a girlfriend? 

PRINCE: Yep! 

MICHAEL: Well, good for you man! 

PRINCE: Thanks. (turns to Rachael) Rach, get back in the booth. 

RACHAEL: (rolls her eyes and gets in the booth) 

PRINCE: Ok. "Man Smart, Woman Smarter." (plays the track)
