- Mary Beth: [narrates] I said we'd be best friends forever, and I will never forget you. Of course, I haven't seen any of them since that night, except for Sunshine. Sunshine remains my best friend today, and I'm the godmother of her 25-year-old son, whose name is Pirate. Pirate never made it to Route 66; he was drafted into the Army and killed in action in the Mekong Delta. Babette hung out and toured in the music business for ten years; today, she produces a successful rock-n-roll show. Calvin graduated from Princeton and became a successful lawyer; in 1982, he was elected to the United States Senate. Poor Tracy, she was married three times and in and out of the Betty Ford Clinic; she was still seeking her own salvation. Stick won a Bronze Star for valor in Vietnam; today, he owns a surf shop in Laguna Beach called Stick's Paradise. The most popular course on campus at UCLA is called "The Road to Freedom"; it's taught by Michael Finnegan. As for me, I said I'd never forget you, and I meant it. So I wrote a book about the last night of Paradise, and I dedicated it to all of you. It's called: "There Goes My Baby."
