Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker (Johnny Depp) and has his eyes set on Allison Vernon-Williams (Amy Locane). This is a problem, because Allison is a Square and Cry-Baby is a Drape. Those two just don’t mix, but Cry-Baby is determined to sing for Allison at Turkey Point.

When Cry-Baby comes to pick Allison up on his new motorcycle, Baldwin, who sees himself as Allison’s boyfriend, decides that something needs to be done about Cry-Baby and all the Drapes, so he and his cohorts, The Whiffles, head over to Turkey Point to teach them a lesson.

When Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) receives the hundred-year-old telegram from Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) at the end of Back to the Future Part 2, telling him that he’s alive and well in the Old West, it also has another tidbit of information – that he’s hidden the time machine in an old cave outside of town. But Marty needs some help getting it running.

So he returns to town just in time to see himself leave to go back to the future for the first time, and he surprises the original Doc (the 1955 Doc), and tells him all about what’s happening. Or at least, enough so that he doesn’t know anything about his future, because Marty doesn’t know that Doc has read the note that he gave him, telling him about the terrorists in the original Back to the Future.

With Doc on board, he gets some help getting the DeLorean back up and running, and using the Mr. Fusion to generate the power, Marty heads back to 1885 to see if he can rescue Doc and head back to 1985 – which will hopefully be the same as they left it!

Raymond Avilla (Andy Garcia) is the newest officer to join the Internal Affairs Department, and he and partner Amy Wallace (Laurie Metcalf) are investigating Van Stretch (William Baldwin), who they suspect of using drugs, among other things. It appears that his spending habits don’t match up with his income levels, and they want to know why.

Along the way they encounter Van’s partner, Dennis Peck (Richard Gere), and it seems that Van isn’t the only one with something to hide – but Peck may be a whole lot better at it.

Private First Class Franklin Fairchild Bean (Charlie Sheen) is ready to get out of the army. When he learns that his father dies, he’s had enough – though it’s never really explained just why he’s had enough. Perhaps he did it for his father, and now he’s ready to get out. We do see that he was forced to go into the military, or at least to military school, and perhaps now he’s ready to get out. In any case, he wants out and he wants out now.

It would seem that the prevailing knowledge at the time (this is in the sixties) is if you have “tattoos that show”, you will get kicked out. So Bean finds a tattoo artist that will do the work and gets a couple of 8 balls (the kind you play pool with) on the back of his hands – one on each. Then he gets drunk and gets thrown out of a bar window. Needless to say, his superiors aren’t happy. But it seems that he isn’t going to get out as easily as he had hoped, either.

When a renegade Russian submarine captain (Sean Connery) disappears into the North Atlantic with Russia’s latest technical marvel, it is at first assumed that he intends to start a war. That is, after all, what the Red Octoberwas designed to do. But at least one person, Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin), believes differently.

He has studied Marko Ramius, and he has even met him once before, and he doesn’t think that he would do something like that. In fact, Jack thinks that he’s trying to defect. There are just two problems with that. First, anyone with a multi-billion dollar war machine may do just about anything that they want. And second, this machine just happens to have a super-secret caterpillar drive that means they can’t be tracked in any traditional way, so finding him is another thing entirely.
