Description: On their first date, Victoria Tambini said she'd never been ice skating, so Tony offered to take her the next day. Tony's neighbor knew how to ice skate and offered to go with them as a double date. Victoria had assumed that Tony knew how to skate, but both of their ice skating skills were poor. After the rink, they walked around the park talking about the World's Fair, drove to Chinatown in Manhattan for dinner, moved to Little Italy for dessert, and went uptown to 72nd St. to see Magnum Force at the movies. Afterwards, they went out every weekend and Tony showed Victoria around New York.
