"Previously on The O.C.:" "Leaving me for a guy named George?" "I'm Paul." "I'm here for GEORGE." "GEORGE?" "Global Environmental Organization Regarding Greenhouse Emissions." "A guy came from GEORGE to recruit me." "You have to choose between me and GEORGE." "You haven't given me the green light on that proposal." "I love you." "The real you." "Julie's had enough of the old Bullit." "We can still play Ping-Pong." "Oh, my God." "Eggs." "Flour." "There we go." "Milk." "Okay, now, Ryan, fire up the griddle." "And, Sandy, beat until smooth." "Hey, Mama, have a seat." "ln the mood for crepes?" "You're making crepes?" "Yeah, Taylor sent Kaitlin a griddle from France." "With a long note about how I need to broaden my breakfast horizons." "She's 6000 miles away, still annoying." "Have you talked to her?" "Oh, no." "Haven't read her blog or her scrapbook." "It's over, I'm okay." "I barely think about her." "Even though you're living in her room?" "We've all had to make adjustments." "Especially Kaitlin, with the entire Cohen family taking refuge here." "Oh, it's been nice." "I mean, I perfected my Sandy Cohen." "Listen to this:" ""I'll schmear it for you."" "Well, you know, not bad." "I am very sexy." "Baby, stop mimicking Sandy." "Julie, crepe?" "I'm too nauseous to eat." "Morning sickness?" "Or wedding jitters." "Who can tell?" "Your fiancé is certainly excited about the nuptials." "Yeah, he's kind of become a broken record." "Over and over again, he keeps saying" "Hey, Sandy." "Bullit." "Ryan." "Peanut." "Hey, blondie." "And there she is." "The future Mrs. Gordon Bullit." "Weddings days can be nerve-wracking." "But just think, after tomorrow, you will be just another old married couple." "Just like that one living upstairs." "Hey, breakfast time." "Toaster Strudel." "Oh, you're the best cook ever." "Enough talking." "What do you wanna watch?" "I think you know what I wanna watch." "Ladies and gentlemen, Briefcase or No Briefcase!" "Premise is so simple." "Yet so compelling." "Can I come in?" "Hey, sure." "I know you don't like leaving, but the inspector's coming today." "I think everybody should be there." "But this chair is my home now." "Downstairs in 1 0 minutes." "And we waited six months for this guy?" "Oh, boy, his body language is very negative." "You think?" "Wait." "He just smiled." "I think it was more of a smirk." "Everyone keep your fingers crossed." "What's the good news?" "When can we rebuild?" "Well, I hate to say this..." "...but how about never?" "Excuse me?" "The structural damage is substantial." "But we can pay to fix it, right?" "Yeah, we've got insurance." "The cost of repairing the damage is more than the value of this house." "I'm sorry, but there's no saving your home." "Nice view." "Infinity pool." "Yeah, but no pool house." "Yes, well, 6 bedrooms, I think there's room for everyone." "Yeah, but it still just doesn't feel like home." "I'm not ready to leave the old place yet." "Yeah, I'll miss it." "Doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to Berkeley." "Berkeley." "Now, there was a house." "The minute we walked in, we knew we were home." "Wood floors, exposed beams." "That house had character." "And this house has none of those things." "Well, it's got a Viking range, granite countertops." "It's average and generic." "I couldn't agree more." "Let's go." "I think we should make an offer." "You do?" "You do?" "We've seen five versions of the same house." "Does it really matter which one we pick?" "I'll draw up the papers." "Whatever you want, honey." "Take a good look around, everything's about to change." "Actually, I have a surprise." "Look." "The floor plan to our apartment in Providence." "Hey, big screen TV, La-Z-Boys, hot plate." "Looks exactly like here." "Awesome." "Do you think our TiVo will keep its memory if we pack it?" "I don't know." "I should call the help line right now." "What?" "Nothing." "You know, I think I'm gonna call later when there's less phone traffic in India." "What?" "Isn't it awesome we get to live like this for the next four years?" "Okay, gotta run." "Hey, Atwood." "Hey." "Ryan." "Come in." "Sit." "Yeah, not gonna happen." "But I do need your help with a plan." "Does it involve leaving this room?" "lt involves leaving the city." "Welcome back from Paris." "You here for business or pleasure?" "That is an excellent question, sir." "The answer to which I spent the flight trying to determine." "Because it's not business, but it's not pleasure." "Because that would imply that seeing Ryan Atwood again is pleasurable." "When really, it's stressful." "And really surreal that we ever dated in the first place." "It's not like we have anything in common." "Not that we didn't try, because we did." "I stopped wearing shoes and learned Hacky Sack to fit in at Berkeley." "Then he learned French and learned the difference between a Brie and a Camembert." "Then he grew this little mustache in an effort to appear more French-like but he's fair-haired, and it was kind of an above-lip disaster." "And from there we just realized it didn't work." "You know, we didn't work." "And I left to escape the painful reality of yet another failed relationship." "And at least this time I didn't stalk him, though." "Because sometimes I do that." "Good thing I never fell in love with the president, huh?" "That would be bad." "Right." "Summer." "Hey, Taylor." "Hey." "Hey." "It's so good to see you." "You too." "Did you come alone?" "Ryan doesn't know that you're coming." "You told me not to tell him." "Who said anything about Ryan?" "We're so over." "I just-- I can't even believe we ever even dated." "I don't even think I would recognize him." "I just hope he shaved that mustache" "Did you get the rental car?" "Yeah." "You got the address?" "Ryan." "You found out I was coming and decided to surprise me?" "No, I didn't know you were coming back." "And I'm leaving." "Now I'm surprised." "Where are you guys going?" "Oh, not far." "We'll be back by tonight." "Yeah, it's a mission." "I'm gonna call you." "Okay, well, brilliant catching up." "It's good to see you." "That wasn't awkward at all." "No, no." "Why would it be?" "It's not like I'm still in love with her or anything." "Taylor, are you okay?" "No, I'm not." "I'm still in love with him." "I can't believe the Bullit's got 1 2 sons." "One from every major oil refinery in Texas." "I've always wanted brothers, and now I'm gonna have a dozen." "I mean, it'll be cool, if they're all like you." "Well, that's the thing." "Oh, there she is." "Bullits, meet the squirt." "Hi there, squirt!" "Squirt, meet the Bullits." "This is Austin, Dallas, Houston Lubbock, Odessa, El Paso, Amarillo Texarkana, San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Hanoi." "Okay." "Ain't that something?" "Now you got yourself a whole buffet of Bullits to love." "Well, I guess the apple really doesn't fall far from the tree." "Oh, not my apples." "The Bullit's DNA is bulletproof." "Not a recessive gene in the whole damn double helix." "Oh, lookie here, the wife-to-be." "What's the word, sweetie?" "It's a boy." "Lucky number 1 3." "Yes!" "This is it." "The Berkeley house." "Exactly how Sandy described it." "You ready for this?" "Hello." "Hi." "So we'd like to buy your house." "Don't shut the door, we'd like to buy your house." "And you're an adorable couple, but this house isn't for sale." "We should tell them everything." "Okay." "Right." "This is my house." "Shut the door." "No, it used to be his house." "Yeah." "Those baby handprints in the cement, those are mine." "Those hands are yours?" "Those are so cute." "I know." "Thank you." "My parents moved us to Newport when I was 2, which was a mistake on many levels." "But it did allow us to adopt a young ex-convict named Ryan." "Shut the door." "I'm not a convict." "Now our house is condemned due to an earthquake." "My mom's about to have a baby." "I feel there's this chance for our family to have a fresh start." "His parents always talk about the time they spent here..." "...being the best of their lives." "lt'd be like coming home." "Look, I hear you." "But this already is a home." "It's ours, and it's not for sale." "I thought I had them." "Me too." "We should call your dad." "Sure, no one can change somebody's mind like Dad, but he's not gonna leave Mom." "And the airlines won't let women fly in their ninth month of pregnancy." "What if she didn't fly on an airline?" "And you also sign here and here." "And this is your offer." "We'll live there for a year, get settled with the baby and then we can look for a house without feeling rushed." "I know we can't impose on Julie much longer." "I just wish...." "Oh, me too." "But wherever our family is that's home." "Drop that pen, amigo." "I'm kidnapping the both of you." "Come on." "The jet is gassed up." "ls he drunk?" "No, your boys called." "They're in Berkeley trying to buy back the old homestead." "Just need you two there to seal the deal." "I figured the least I could do is lend my jet since old Sanford here introduced me to my lady love." "I can't fly, I'm 9 months pregnant." "Amarillo is waiting at the plane." "He's a doctor for women's private parts." "Come on, sunshine's burning." "Let's go." "Not to pressure you but the owners are expecting other offers." "What the hell, blondie, I'll buy this house." "There you go." "There you go." "Thank you." "I'm not saying things will snap back to how they were but maybe we were too quick to give up." "So we'll be 6000 miles away." "I'll be in Newport for Christmas and the summer." "We'll make it work." "I should call him, don't you think?" "Real-life Jake broke up with real-life April." "What are you doing?" "I told Seth I wouldn't watch TV till he got home." "So I'm reading about The Valley." "That show's still on?" "Got picked up for five more seasons." "These teen dramas, they run forever." "Okay, enough." "This is insane." "Hey!" "When I left, you were a committed environmentalist." "You were passionate." "You engaged with the world." "You bathed." "I still care about things." "Like?" "Besides Briefcase or No Briefcase and the stars of The Valley." "Sweetie, tell me what happened." "I don't know." "Well, the earthquake happened and the comic-book store closed down." "And Seth's room was destroyed." "I didn't join GEORGE, and then he moved in." "We talked about everything there was to talk about." "And one day, we turned on the TV, and there it was:" "Briefcase or No Briefcase." "Suddenly, we weren't worried about the future or wondering who we were." "For the first time, we were really comfortable." "Maybe a little too comfortable." "You ever think about that?" "No." "Oh, my God, what is that?" "I don't know." "Pancakes had babies." "When did this happen?" "You didn't know she was pregnant?" "I didn't know he was a she." "Oh, my God." "I'm a bad crack mother." "Shouldn't we wait at the house?" "We got a little time till the Bullit is wheels down with the parents." "Take a look around, man." "In a few weeks, you'll have all these new faces to punch." "You getting nostalgic on me?" "Seriously, everyone's moving." "Newport's over." "This is the future." "And it's also possible you may meet another Taylor Townsend." "What was that?" "There is no other Taylor?" "There's only one and you're in love with her?" "You haven't said a word since we bumped into her." "Which means you can't stop thinking about her." "I'll get some coffee." "You love her, I know it." "Stop it." "I know it." "Join GEORGE." "Fight the industrial devastation of our planet." "Hey, are you Paul from GEORGE?" "No." "Tom from GEORGE." "You know Paul?" "No, my girlfriend, Summer Roberts, met him." "Yeah, Paul was really disappointed when she turned us down." "What's she up to now?" "Not much of anything, really." "Well give her this, would you?" "I hate to see someone like Summer just waste their passion." "Yeah." "She loves the otters." "Here you go." "Hello?" "Ryan, hi." "It's me." "This soap stings." "Well, that's because it's lye." "Sorry." "So I was thinking maybe we should get together and talk about things." "What?" "You don't want to?" "No, it's just I don't know when Seth and I are gonna get back from Berkeley." "Oh, why are you in Berkeley?" "Long story, but basically trying to get the Cohens their old house back." "The Cohens are moving to Berkeley?" "lf things work out." "So that would mean you wouldn't be coming back to Newport for Christmas or summer..." "...or ever." "Guess not." "Listen, we could talk after the wedding if you want." "Yeah." "Oh, yeah, I have to go." "You have a nice trip." "We finish this, and then we're done." "Unless there's anything else you need." "I'm all good." "I've got my shoes, my dress." "My cheat sheet with the names of all my stepbrothers." "How was that, meeting all of them?" "A little weird." "I mean, I love Bullit." "But one's kind of enough, you know." "You're telling me." "What are you talking about?" "You're about to spawn off the latest." "Well, maybe he won't be all that Bullitesque." "Don't count on it." "He'll come out with a cowboy hat telling the doctor:" "Or a wife-beater." "Why would he be wearing a wife beat--?" "Oh, my God, Mom" "Okay, honey, just relax." "You have to be kidding me." "I mean, does the Bullit know?" "Of course he knows." "Wait, you told him that the baby is--?" "Frank's." "Yes." "And when were you gonna tell me?" "Soon." "I'm sorry." "This isn't easy." "Well, what happened with you and Frank?" "I got pregnant and Frank couldn't deal with it, so I left him." "That's when Bullit came back." "I told him everything, and he still wanted to marry me." "That's the whole story." "Mom, do you love the Bullit?" "Yes." "I can't believe we're here." "Seriously, fellas, this is crazy." "You said it's where you were the happiest." "Every city needs public defenders." "Plus, I think my little sister deserves a shot at growing up normal." "Well, we can at least talk to them." "Can't hurt." "Hello." "Hi." "I'm Sandy Cohen, this is my wife, Kirsten, and we used to live here." "I'm Todd." "Patrick." "And, yeah, your sons already told us everything about the earthquake, hands in the cement." "But like we said" "You don't wanna sell, I get it." "But just being here again, I gotta say, it still feels like home." "Is the bathroom still in the same place?" "Do you mind?" "Why would I mind?" "Thank you." "I love what you've done with the decorating." "Any chance we could see the kitchen?" "Just to see if the Seth growth chart is still on the wall?" "It isn't." "We thought it was termites." "I hit 3 feet." "I mean, it was a pretty huge accomplishment." "Sir, while we appreciate your nostalgia, we have things to do" "It's all right, we'll be out in just a sec." "Sandy?" "Or not." "Sandy!" "I'm here." "Oh, my God." "Okay, this isn't the bathroom." "I'm sorry, I didn't make it." "My water broke." "Seth, call an ambulance." "There's no time for an ambulance." "Okay, this is so random, but I'm a midwife." "Good, because this baby's coming now." "Sophie Rose Cohen." "It's got a nice ring to it, huh?" "She's beautiful, isn't she?" "She will be in two years when she doesn't look like a squished meatball." "You just called your sister a squished meatball." "You should have seen what you looked like." "Oh, he was beautiful too." "Yeah, I was." "You looked like you went 1 2 rounds..." "...with Joe Frazier." "It's time for a feeding." "Oh, she's gonna" "Yeah, we should go." "No, thank you, Kirsten, I'm lactose intolerant." "What are you doing here?" "Aren't you getting married in a few hours?" "I know." "Couldn't get any damn airspace." "Those dot-commers up here with their jets." "Runway was busier than a bull in springtime." "It's fine now." "Hey, thanks for everything." "Give Julie our best." "And please explain why we couldn't make it." "Oh, I will." "And she'll be thrilled." "And when she pops out lucky number 1 3 I want you there." "Sophie Rose Cohen." "Kaitlin, what are you doing here?" "Wondering if you got an invite to the wedding, because you didn't RSVP which is really rude, considering my mom's pregnant with your baby." "So she told you, huh?" "How could you do that?" "Just walk away from her?" "I mean, she loved you." "When she told me she was pregnant I did kind of panic, and I know I let her down." "When I went to see her and tell her that, she was having dinner with Bullit." "For what it's worth, I really do love her, but she's made her choice." "I know better than to try to change her mind." "So you're just quitting?" "No, wait a minute." "lsn't this what you wanted?" "All I want is for my mom to be happy and for my brother to have his dad around." "But not if he's gonna be a coward." "You know, I thought Atwoods were good at fighting." "Hey." "Is Mom sleeping?" "Hey." "Mother and daughter are snoring soundly." "How you feeling?" "Like I landed in a time warp." "Your mother, me, a new baby, this house." "It's almost 20 years later, I feel like no time has passed at all." "Well, you look like it too." "You got that full head of hair." "If I look half as good as you in 20 years, I'll be a happy man." "Thanks, but I'd like to see you being happy right now." "Seems the last couple of months, you've landed in a bit of a rut." "Or at least a La-Z-Boy." "Well, I sort of have but being up here and seeing Ryan's new life meeting my new sister I get that change is happening whether I want it to or not." "Nothing lasts forever." "But you and Summer still have each other." "You'll be heading off to Providence together." "Yeah." "Except I'm not so sure that us being together is bringing out the best in either one of us right now." "But I'm afraid to let her go, so...." "Well, things have a way of coming back around." "I mean, look at us." "Hey, maybe I should go try to find Julie and see if she needs any help." "Sure, Summer, just abandon me too." "Maybe I'll strike up a casual romance with one of the Bullits." "Okay, who do you think is hotter, El Paso or San Antonio?" "Yeah, I'm gonna have to think about that." "Hanoi has a certain charm." "Thanks for filling in for Kirsten." "I hope she shows up soon." "You look so beautiful." "Thank you." "And you, it's nice to see you looking so showered again." "Well, I figured it was about time." "Yeah." "Is everything okay?" "I guess." "I don't know, you're with the same someone for so long I guess you start to get a little comfortable." "I wouldn't know." "Do you think that Seth and I are making a mistake?" "Living together right after the earthquake and then getting an apartment together?" "Well, you know, I got married so young that I never had a chance to find out who I was or what I cared about." "I mean, I never went to college or learned any real skills." "And now, here I am, 20 years later, still knocked up on my wedding day." "Julie." "Summer, you're a great girl." "And the world deserves to know you." "You deserve it too." "Don't settle for comfortable." "I got you something." "I know she would have wanted to be here today." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Crap, my makeup." "My makeup." "It'll take hours to fix." "Hours?" "We don't got hours." "We're getting married now." "Now?" "Is Kirsten here?" "About that, she dropped child up in San Fran." "But lucky for her there was a hell of a midwife standing by." "Kirsten had her baby?" "Yeah, she said she was sorry she couldn't be here." "Now, are you ready to get hitched?" "I can't get married without Kiki." "She's my best friend." "I'm sorry, but I'm not doing it without her." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "One of you two wouldn't be a wedding planner, would you?" "Actually...." "Let me see my flower girl." "Julie?" "Are you a runaway bride?" "Kind of a runaway wedding." "Wait a minute, does that mean that everybody came with you?" "Can I talk to you?" "Do you have a minute?" "Okay, Ryan, what do you wanna talk about?" "I realized that when I talked to you yesterday on the phone..." "..." "I may have been a little insensitive." "You?" "Never." "I also realized that if the Cohens do move to Berkeley, we" "We may never see each other again." "Hadn't really thought about it." "And when we do say goodbye, I wanted it to be as friends." "Friends." "Sure." "Ryan Atwood, mon ami." "Sounds terrif." "I'll sew those back on for you." "Yeah." "Okay." "Okay." "What is it with you people?" "We're grandparents?" "Wow, that's" "That's amazing." "Congratulations to the Pancakes." "Yeah." "Don't you think it's weird we didn't know Pancakes was pregnant?" "Well, we're not gonna win any parenting awards." "I mean, we must have been pretty out of it to not even notice or care." "I think we've been in kind of a" "Rut lately?" "Yeah." "Do you really think that we can spend the next four years like this?" "Well, look, I'm a pretty skeptical guy." "I don't really believe in signs but this one's pretty easy to read." "It's very easy to read." "It's big letters." "GEORGE?" "You gotta go, Summer." "But what about us?" "This is for us, okay?" "It's for both of us." "I, Julie Cooper, take you, Gordon Bullit...." "I, Julie Cooper, take you, Gordon Bullit...." "Julie!" "Now, by the power vested in me by the st" "Oh, come on, squirt." "Frank?" "Frank?" "Hello?" "Kaitlin, hey, is your mom around?" "Yeah, she's getting married." "That's what I was afraid of." "Put me on speaker phone." "Took you long enough." "Julie?" "Julie, can you hear me?" "Frank, what are you doing?" "I love you, Julie." "I wanna be there for you and our son." "She's pregnant with Frank's baby?" "Who cares?" "This is so romantic." "Hello?" "Sorry, Frank, old buddy." "We're having a hard time hearing you." "Let's get on with the wedding." "I'm sorry, can I have a moment?" "Oh, that woman is like nailing Jell-O to the wall." "Mom." "Not now, Kaitlin." "Mom's trying to figure out who to marry." "I know." "Which is why whatever you decide just make sure it's what you want." "Because this is forever." "Okay." "So Todd and I were talking and" "You had a baby here." "You had a wedding." "Christened one of our bedrooms." "Clearly, you have a connection." "This is your house." "We're just living in it." "We'll have our lawyers call you, but" "We can't fight fate." "We'll sell." "You mean it?" "Thank you." "You in?" "Yeah." "The Cohens are moving to Berkeley." "Sophie, you're home." "Hey, sweetie." "You made up your mind?" "What are we gonna do?" "We got a lot of work to do." "Our kitchen is gonna be so empty." "I know." "I was kind of getting used to becoming a Cohen." "My Sandy imitation was killer." "Well, it's just the two of us now." "It's pretty awesome that you decided to stay single." "But do we have a plan?" "Yeah." "I was thinking we could go get mani-pedis, maybe a couple of mystics." "I was talking about, like, a real plan." "A life plan." "I know." "The truth is, I don't." "For the first time, I am going to figure out how to do this on my own." "You're not on your own." "I could work retail." "Part-time, at least." "We'll figure it out." "We're Coopers." "Oh, hey." "Summer forgot her books." ""Undergraduate catalog."" "All right, Roberts." "I'll see you." "All right, Atwood." "And thank you very much for Flapjacks." "I promise I'll raise him right." "Don't forget to clean his cage..." "...which shouldn't be for cage fights." "Got it." "I'm gonna miss you so much." "I know." "You can follow up with my political efforts on my blog." "And you can follow my personal efforts on mine." "You're the best." "You're the only girlfriend I ever had." "I'll miss you." "You too." "All right, we'll be in the car." "I don't know." "Some of these GEORGE guys, they look so idealistic." "You got nothing to worry about." "Just remember, this isn't goodbye." "You're my destiny, Cohen." "Go save the world, Summer Roberts." "See you in '08 after the New Hampshire primary." "Just go." "I'm gonna go." "Bye." "So you're going off to Berkeley, I am going off to Paris." "Who knows what's gonna happen, huh?" "Yeah." "Well, I think what's really important is what's already happened, which was this year." "Thank you, Taylor." "You saved me." "Oh, well, you may have helped me iron out a few issues of my own." "All right." "Come here." "All aboard." "Remind me why you're taking the train to Paris." "I'm taking a train to New York, and from there I'm taking a boat to Paris." "It's the strangest thing, but no airline would have me." "Oh, you better get going." "Oh, yeah, but" "Ryan." "I better do that." "Ryan?" "They're not gonna let you off the train." "Where's the next station?" "San Bernardino, I think." "It's an hour away." "We can do a lot in an hour." "I did book a sleeper car." "That's the last of it." "There you go." "Fly safe and we'll see you at Parents Day weekend." "All right." "Two months and 1 4 days away." "I'll be counting the days as well." "Oh, I love you." "Oh, I love you too." "Let's group-hug it." "All right." "Well, I guess we better get going if we're gonna beat the traffic." "You take care of yourself, okay?" "You got the directions in case we get separated?" "Yeah, you know what?" "I think I'm just gonna hang out." "As much as this house meant to you...." "Take your time." "I'll meet you at the rest stop in Santa Barbara." "All right." "Time to go." "Yup." "I can give you a ride." "No, no, this is better." "My new life of loneliness..." "...and isolation begins now." "You'll be fine." "I don't know about you, though." "I've been checking on your new roommate." "His favorite book and movie are Da Vinci Code." "He's no me." "You say that like it's a bad thing." "At least I leave you funnier than when I found you." "I'm a lot better off than when you found me." "Me too." "Should we hug?" "I know, that's crazy." "Come on." "Give me a shake, dude." "Okay." "All right." "All right." "Oh, feels good in here." "Oh, it felt really nice." "Felt really nice." "Yeah." "All right." "See you later." "Yeah." "I don't know what to say except that you totally had my back out there." "Hey." "Ryan 's gonna stay with us now." "I'll unpack later." "Good job, you guys." "Louder, come on." "All right." "I think you can pretty much imagine what I'm gonna talk about." "Law?" "That's right." "That's right." "I hope you know what I'm talking about." "All right." "Any volunteers?" "Yes?" "Miss Cooper." "X equals 24." "Thanks." "Yeah, I'm just leaving the site now." "Everything looks good." "We're on schedule to meet our target date." "Thank you." "Hey, kid." "Need any help?"
