"We have my mom's ranger, we have a perfect alibi as I go to this comic book convention every year and we also have my entire life never doing anything wrong." "Which completely allows my parents to give a false sense of trust." "And you want to give that all away for Summer in a wet t-shirt doing body shots." "Sorry, I thought that was a rhetorical question." "Yes, Ryan, yes." "On the last weekend before school, one goes to Tijuana, it is tradition, it is a right of passage, and you know what else ?" "What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico." "What happens in Mexico ?" "I don't know, because it stays there, that's why we must go." "I don't know about lying to your parents." "Okay, I can respect that." "I will lie to them." "Why can't we just go to Comic-con ?" "Comic-gon is just a bunch of pathetic virgins ogling some porn star dressed as Cat Woman." "I thought you went every year." "Listen, Tijuana's a big town, I bet you won't even see Marissa." "I don't care about seeing Marissa or not seeing Marissa." "Okay, therefore you should have no problem coming to Mexico." "Won't you be hanging out with Summer ?" "No, because she'll probably be shacked up with Luke." "Yeah, I'm sorry." "That's probably a bit painful." "Hey ya, fellas." "You all excited about Comic-con ?" "Seth's been going since he was ten." "It's the highlight of his year." "Thanks, highlight's a bit overstated." "Check you out, big pimpin'." "Yeah, I got a meeting with a private law firm today." "Why, you suing one of their clients ?" "No, it's a job interview." "Which he'll never take." "They like to flatter him every once in awhile." "But I go for the free meal." "But I mean, you'll still be a public defender, right ?" "After 15 years ?" "There's no way he's selling out." "It'd have to be one hell of a free meal." "And that's what they call a call-back in comedy, Ryan." "So, how soon until you two are leaving on your trip ?" "I don't know." "How soon ?" "Tomorrow." "Don't you mean Manana ?" "Looks good." "I don't wear hats." "Ryan ?" "You mean sombreros." "You really need to brush up on your Spanish." "There's over 500 useful phrases." ""May I please see a lady's worsted nylon bathing suit ?"" "Yeap, but did you know that one ?" " What's this ?" " Our iteninary for our trip." "Seth, it's over 12 pages long, we're going for two days." "Right." "If you're going to get over Marissa, somebody needs activities." "I don't need to get over Marissa." "I'm over Marissa." "Look at me, this is me here, okay ?" "Amigo." "Now I know you're hurting, and I think you need to unburden your soul." "Anytime, I'm here to help." "My soul is fine." "Marissa and me..." "It's just..." "I don't know, it never would have worked out." "No kidding, it is so much better this way." "He's all like, brooding, wounded, somebody save me." "I thought you liked that." "It is just too hot to save anyone." "Speaking of hot, I can't believe you and Luke..." "That you guys did it !" "You have to tell me everything, I've been waiting for this forever." " You have ?" " You've seen it before." " C'mon." " Touched it ?" "Summer !" "It's a secret act between two people." "It was a letdown, right ?" "Kinda hurt ?" "Totally awkward ?" "It's not like I had anything to compare it to." "So ?" "Do it again, it is way better the second time." "I'm supposed to go over to his place this afternoon." "Trust me, Coop." "Get back on that horse." "You got to giddy up !" "My dad's home !" "You're right." "I don't understand." "You promised me that the apartment will be ready tomorrow." "Yeah." "I'm moving out this weekend." "Where am I supposed to stay ?" "You don't have to apologize, it's just that..." "You know what ?" "Thank you." "Forget it." "Bye." " Dad ?" " Hey, girls." "So, Summer and I are going to..." "Oh right, you're going to Palm Springs." "Yeah..." "We're not leaving until tomorrow... for Tijuana ?" "Oh yeah, right." "That's it..." "You okay ?" "Because I was going to go over to Luke's." "But if you want, could stay here." "I'm fine, sweetie." "Yeah, go to Luke's." "Luke's great." "Isn't he, Summer ?" "He's a really good kid." "Sure." "Anyway, I gotta..." "Right, I know, yeah." "Is now a bad time ?" "I don't know why you come to me in the first place." "I'll call my realtor, Gloria." "I'm sure she'll be able to help you find something." "Thanks, you know." "Yeah, thank you." "So, how did the girls take the news ?" "Julie and I decided to... to table that conversation until Monday." "You haven't told them yet ?" "Julie's at her mom's with Caitlin and Marissa's going to Mexico this weekend so, we thought'd it'd be easier, cleaner if we did it that way." "They come back, I'm gone, and then we tell them." "I'm not so sure about this." "Neither am I but, the thought of having them watch me move out, it's hard enough as it is." "I'd never thought I'd be that guy that... that divorced guy." "When we go to Tijuana, it's going to be so romantic." "It's kind of gross there." "So what, we won't leave the hotel room." "I don't know." "It'll be way better the second time." "No, I don't know about Mexico." "TJ." "I don't think I'm going to go," "I fell like my dad's having a meltdown." "You're thinking about your dad right now ?" "C'mon, babe." "I don't know if I can leave him alone." "Marissa, he's like 40." "We can go to like Mexico whenever." "I feel like I should be with him right now." "Okay, fine." "Gotta go meet the guys anyway." "Is she looking at me ?" "Still no." "You know what she's doing ?" "And it's textbook." "She's playing hot and cold, trying to pretend our little kiss didn't happen." "There were no witnesses." "I didn't see anything." "I guess I'll just have to make magic happen again, won't I ?" "How you've been." "Haven't seen you in awhile." "Yeah." "Well, the last time I saw you, you kinda had your hands full." "Coop, c'mon !" "Don't let me keep you." " I won't." " Good." " Hey Coop." " Hey Holly." "You don't make those freshmen watch real donkey shows, do you ?" "Sandy Cohen !" "How'd you get pass security ?" "How are you, Rachel ?" "You look great !" "Being a slave for the Man agrees with you." "Six seconds until the first insult !" "You're getting soft !" "Still surfing' ?" "Every morning, it helps me keep a clear mind, that and not working at a joint like this." "Yeah, decent hours, appropriate compensation." "I don't know how I ever left the DA's office." "If I remember correctly, you kept losing." "None of this roguish brilliant..." " Conceited." " That's right." "It was me." "So, what are the good folks at Parcher and Con doing." "I gotta tell ya' you made some noise with that Jimmy Cooper case." "Ah, I didn't do anything." "You still got your work cut out for you." "But heading the fed's office for a pass, negotiating a restitution deal, calling in a high powered security attorney in the spend of a weekend." " God, damn, I'm impressive." " And conceited." "So you keep saying." "Truth be told, no one was going to touch that guy." "The fact that you did, made the partners think and made me think." "Is sandy cohen really ready to come down off his high horse ?" "Is he finally getting tired of being a martyr ?" "I was just hoping for a free meal." "Sorry to disapoint you." "All you're getting is a really good sales pitch." "Sounds delicious." "What are you..." "Eavesdropping, I hear like a wolf." "What do you mean you're not going ?" "I just..." "I don't know Summer." "I can't." "But how am I supposed to get there ?" "The guys are going down tonight for that stupid freshmen hazing." " Holly's car is full." " I'm sorry." "I'm totally stranded." "What happens in Mexico stays in Mexico." "Holly, I can't." "Me and marissa are back together." "I'd give it a week." "You'll miss me." "C'mon babe." "Let's get you out of here before the road trip starts." "Hello Summer." "Seth Cohen." "I believe you remember." "Nothing ?" "I heard you needed a ride tomorrow." " Remember all the numbers ?" " Yes, I remember our phone number." "Did you get any water ?" "Extra batteries ?" "Did you get some air in the tires ?" "Did you put gas in the tank ?" "It's amazing I turned out so normal." "Hey !" "Let me get that." "Hey, Summer." "Sandy Cohen, I'm Seth's dad." "I had no idea you were into comic books." " Comic books?" "Ew." " She goes for the anime." " Anime..." " I'm going to say bye to Coop." "Don't touch my stuff." " This is going to be awesome." " She's hot stuff, son." "And now, it's ruined." "I can't go." "C'mon Coop." "I got us a ride, just grab some stuff and let's go." "Hey, what are you guys still doing here ?" "I thought I'd stay home this weekend." "What, why ?" "I thought you were looking forward to this trip." "I was, but you know, I thought that we could spend some time together." "We can't, I'm sorry." "I thought you were going so, I made other plans." "I was, I just..." "I mean, are you sure ?" " Cuz' I thought maybe we could." " Look, please c'mon." "I can't take care of both of us." "Okay." "I'll go pack my stuff." " So, who's going with us ?" " You'll see." "Great news !" "I got Coop to come along." "Vamanos !" "We're going to TJ !" "I can't believe you convinced me to do this, we could've brought somebody in." "Where's the fun in that ?" "It only took us a couple hours to paint my dorm room, remember ?" "Your dorm room was the size of a prison cell." "We might be painting one of those as well." "Sorry." "Thank you so much." "I was thinking about being home when Julie and the kids come back." "You haven't told them yet." "Not exactly, I was going to tell Marissa, but then, it seemed so impossibly hard." "Because it is !" "Jimmy, Marissa isn't a little girl anymore." "And if she comes home and finds you gone, she'll never forgive you." "Call her, she'll still love you." "I promise." "We should be there in, like, 3 hours ?" "The GPS says the ETA's three and a half." "That's because someone drives like an old woman." " I'm going 70 in a 65 zone." " 80 is the new 70." "What ?" "Who talks like that ?" "Who gets passed by a van full of nuns ?" "Oh wait, who ?" "Cohen does." "They have God on their side, okay Summer ?" "I'm not going to beat jesus." "I'm going to call Holly and see how far ahead of us she is." " And she's a girl." " That's weird being insulted here." "Not as insulting as being here with you." "Point taken." "No, thanks." "I'll take it." "I'm so dehydrated." "What is up with the AC ?" "My hair is frizzing out, I look like Howard Stern !" "See ?" "Strangely, I think my JewFro benefits from this." "You're Jewish ?" "Yes, that's why I feel so comfortable in this desert heat." "This is a nightmare." "I'm sweating to death, driving 10 miles an hour, on like a rickshaw listening to this... music." "Hey, do not insult Death Cab." "It's like one guitar and a whole lot of complaining." "This reminds me of someone else who's doing a whole lot of complaining, Summer." "You." "Listen to me, I am driving this vehicle, and I will drive at the speed I feel comfortable, okay ?" "It's my music, it's my snacks..." "Kudos and goldfish ?" "What are you, 8 ?" " Ryan, Marissa, say goodbye to Summer." " What are you doing ?" " I'm dropping you off." " No you won't !" "Don't touch the wheel." "It's not exactly the honeymoon suite." "It's only for one night." "Until the axel's fixed." "That's nothing to brag about." "Sweet, do we have to pay extra for the pubes ?" "This is so gross, I can not stay here." "Unless you feel like hitchhiking again." "No thank you." "I've had enough time in a truck full of chickens." "We're really lucky that guy stopped for us." "Well, we'd be even luckier if Cole Trickle here hadn't driven us off the road." "Who the hell is Cole Trickle ?" "Tom cruise, Days of thunder ?" "Hey guys, can we try to be positive, here ?" "Okay, I am positive that this is Summer's fault." "I am positive that I am leaving this place with a rash." "So you're planning on making some extra money tonight ?" "Ew." "This bathroom is so... ew." "What happened to you ?" "Were you finger painting in the backyard ?" "I was at Jimmy's." "Helping him paint his new living room." "Julie kicked him out ?" "Is it okay that I'm helping him ?" "Yeah I guess..." "Whoa honey !" "You shouldn't have." "I didn't." "It washed up about an hour ago." "Who's Rachel ?" "She works at the law firm I met with yesterday." "Wow, the meeting must've gone well." "You never said." "You must've let them down, so they sent you a gift." "You know with a private practice, I could do more normal work than I do now." "Sandy, you're not seriously considering taking the job, are you ?" "The salary the offered me, it's outrageous." "Since when have you been swayed by a paycheck ?" "This family has all the money it needs." "Yeah, except of course, it's your money." " It's our money." " Not really." "Well, unless you want to bye the Lakers and own a Carribean island." "It's not about buying stuff, well it'd be nice, it's about contributing." "And I have an oppurtunity." "It's working for people that you hate." "You always referred to those places as evil empires." "Controlled by coprorate interest." "Owned by the Man." "Well, it goes with the territory." "But PD's office is your life !" "I don't want to see you give that up so you can buy groceries next week." "I don't believe this," "I think balance is important." " You don't think we have balance ?" " No we don't." "You have all the money." "And you have all the ideals." " You like that I don't make a lot of money." " What ?" "That's what makes us different from all the other families." "All these other women, you never wanted to be, married to their investmen bankers and CEOs, as long as I haven't sold out, you haven't sold out." "That's not true." "C'mon face it, the only reason that keeps you feeling from Julie Cooper is me." "But hey, it's just an offer." "So, I have to pick wisely, ding dongs and cheese sticks ?" "I don't know, pick whatever." "I don't care either, so..." "So I, guess we'll all just starve." "Are you ever going to stop being mad at me ?" " I'm not mad at you." " Right." "Well, why would I be mad at you ?" "Because you walked in on me with another girl ?" "Actually, I think she was a woman." "But why would I care about that ?" "I don't know." "Shouldn't be a problem." "There's no problem." "Cept' ding dongs or cheese sticks." "I don't care, Ryan." "I don't care about cheese sticks, I don't care about ding dongs and I really don't care that I walked in on you with some girl, or woman, whatever." "The only reason I was with her was because you were clearly back with Luke." "I was not back with luke." "But you are now right ?" " Right." " Good." "Great, so we'll just go to Mexico split up so we don't have to talk to each other over again." "Sounds like a plan." "By the way, you could've knocked first." "Did you ever wonder why I went to the pool house to find you ?" "Everyday." "Here's your chance." "Clear the air." "Tell me." "Cheese sticks, I hate ding dongs." "Hey static, that's awesome." "What're you doing ?" "Almost watching tv." "This is either Spongebob Squarepants or Jag." "Get off the bed." "The sooner I go to sleep, the sooner it'll be morning and the sooner this nightmare will be over." "I'm not sleeping on that couch." "It's stained and smells foul." "You sleep there." "After you made it sound so appealing, right, have fun, good night." " C'mon get off the bed !" " Nope." " Be like, a gentleman ?" " Chivalry's dead, sugar." "You make a move, I rip out your jugular." "Hey, pillow talk." "Hello ?" "Oh hey dad." "Hey." "You gotta a minute, kiddo ?" "Uh, yeah." "Is everything okay ?" "Well, no, not exactly." "Well, what is it ?" "This isn't easy to say." "When you get home," "I'm not going to be there." "Your mom and I are..." "You're going to get a divorce." "I just can't believe you're telling me this over the phone." "I was going to tell you, before you left, but then I'd knew you'd stay so and" "I just couldn't let you watch me pack up my life." "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, kiddo." "I didn't want to ruin your whole trip." "It's good... that you went." "I can sleep on the floor." "No, it's okay." "I'm sorry." "Thanks" " Sorry, I didn't mean to..." " I know." "You want to go home ?" "I just..." "I think I don't want to stay here." "I'm going to go take a shower." " So..." "Tijuana." " Yeah." "You think we should've woken up Ryan and Marissa ?" "No, they looked so cute together." "Vomit." "Hey it's a real sentimental streak you got there, Summer." "Trouser it, Cohen." "It's too early for your so called comedy." "You enjoy my comedy." "You know what else I think you enjoy ?" "Me." "That's because you're mentally unstable." "Be that as it may, I think that facts speak for themselves." "May I remind you of a little something I'd like to call, the time you kissed me by the pool at my grandfather's birthday party." "What're you talking about ?" "Okay, I know that denial is a very powerful coping mechanism." "But I just think that it's time that we paid lip service to our lip service." "Two words: no tongue." "Well, you did agree to take this little trip down to Mexico." " I needed a ride." " We shared the same bed." "I wasn't going to sleep on the couch, it smelled like these eggs" " You ate my toast, Summer." " I like crusts, Seth." "Face it, our chemistry is undeniable." " You know what else is undeniable ?" " What ?" "The pain this fork is going to cause when I jam it into your eye." "I suffer from rage blackouts." "I'm just... check." " Where's Coop ?" " Taking a shower." "I hope she's wearing shower shoes." "I brought you some breakfast and the chariots are prepared out front." " You ready to go ?" " I'm not sure we're going." "What ?" "Marissa's dad called." "Some bad news." "What's going on ?" "They're getting divorced." "Baby, I'm so sorry." "Whatever you want to do, Coop." "But if I may, speaking as a child of divorce, you do not want to be home right now." "And this is our last chance for freedom, we get back to Newport and it's all just school and reality." "Let's go to TJ, have fun." "Life will suck soon enough." "She might... actually be right." "There's got to be a first time for everything." "Rage black outs, got it." "I'll be in the car." "Let's go to TJ." "I still don't understand why we needed to get two rooms." "I'm going to leave you my key just in case you get lonely." "Or in case, I might smother you with a pillow while you're sleeping." "Whatever turns you on." "So everyone is probably at Boom Boom." "Oh, just let me run into the pharmacy." "You can get whatever you want without a prescription." "I need to make a pitstop for my stepmom." "I guess she's already taking all the painkillers available in Orange County." "I should probably pop in and get me some antihistamine...for me, allergies." "You know, you don't have to come with us, if you don't want." "Cuz' I'm going to go find Luke." "It's okay, really." "It's fine." "So where are the partners ?" "Oh right, I forgot, vampires hate the sunlight." " They didn't want to appear desperate." " So they sent you." "Desperation was always your strong suit." "And yours is..." "I'm drawing a blank here." "Look, the partners are pulling the offer first thing in the morning, unless they hear from you." "Tell them thank you very much for the surfboard, however, it did kind of freak out my wife a little bit." "You had her believing that I was actually considering this job." " Which you are." " Nah." "As much as I like to flatter myself and think you're here for the sparkling banter and crabcakes," "I know you're interested." "It's not gonna happen, Rachel." "I've been in the PD's office my whole life." "It's what I do" "And I'm giving you a platform to do it better." "The sand dabs are great here." "Don't you want to see what will happen if you really tested yourself ?" "Not just one more overworked, underpaid ADA ?" "I always loved being you." " You know why ?" " Why ?" "Cause' I was excellent." "Which is why I left." "I wanted to do more and so do you." "Clocks ticking'." " Sand dabs, huh ?" " Yup." "Of course she would be." "But telling her, you were totally right." "It'll take while." "I guess it'll take while to get used to this." "My swingin' new bachelor pad." "This is really the first time I've been a bachelor." "I went from you to Julie and the rest is..." "Let me ask you something." "Do you ever had any doubts ?" "About you and Sandy ?" "We have our issues." "Do you ever think about what it'd be like if you and I ended up ?" "Sometimes." "Ah, finished." "I should go." "I'm sorry that was totally wrong." "I'm sorry, just because my marriage is falling apart, it doesn't mean I should be bringing yours down, too, I'm sorry." " I'm gonna go." " I'm sorry." "C'mon Luke." "Rock that ass up." "Nah, that's cool." "Marissa's not even coming." "Come on, I love this song." "I love authentic mexican culture." " What are you doing ?" " I'm sorry." "What that you got caught ?" "Don't ever talk to me again." "You are such a bitch !" " Please, he hooks up with everyone." " Shut up !" "Freshmen girls, girls from moderday, girls from UCI.." "Is that true ?" "Marissa !" "Everyone knows !" "Everyone !" "Now you do too !" " You're so mean !" " Summer, I am honest." "Her parents are getting divorced, you stupid slut !" "She suffers from rage blackouts." " This isn't about you." " It is now." " Get out of my way." " You don't deserve her." " I'll go check the hotel." " I'll check the streets." "Call me, if you find her." "Thank god, Coop." "I slept with him." "I know, sweetie." "I gotta call the guys." "No, I don't want to see them." "I'm just so embarressed." "It's okay." "It's just..." "We'll go home." "I can't go home, my dad will be gone, my mom will be back, I have..." "I have no one." "C'mon coop." "Let's get out of here." "I'll grab our stuff." " Hey it's me." " Hey." " I found her." " You did ?" "She's at the hotel." " You guys have to get here fast." " Okay." "Hey Coop, you want to get some dinner ?" "What're you in the mood for ?" "Bad news, she's gone." "And she took my stepmom's painkillers." " Should we split up ?" " No, let's look together." " What happened at the suits ?" " You know, okay." " I can't believe summer's almost over." " Ah, I know." "It just goes faster and faster every year." "So if I did take this job..." "You've already taken it, haven't you ?" "I can still get out of it if you wanted me to." "To a new season."
