The Favor is a 1994 American romantic comedy film directed by Donald Petrie, and written by Sara Parriott and Josann McGibbon.

It stars Harley Jane Kozak, Elizabeth McGovern, Bill Pullman, Brad Pitt and Ken Wahl.

As their 15-year reunion comes up, Kathy cannot help but wonder what would happen if she ever got together with her high school sweetheart, Tom, whom she had never slept with.

At Elliot’s art exhibition, Emily breaks up with him because he's too young for her and she's ready to find someone who will commit.

Going to see Kathy, Elliot convinces her that she was hasty in breaking up with him and never gave him a chance to “audition” for a deeper relationship.

Elliot has a show in Denver, and Kathy ends up on the same flight, telling him Emily’s baby is actually Tom's.

Kathy helps Emily plan her wedding with Elliot, while Peter is reassured things are back to normal.

The Favor was filmed in 1990,[2] but went into wide release in the United States and Canada on April 29, 1994, owing to Orion's bankruptcy in 1991.
