"Hey." "I got some breakfast." "You just getting in?" "Yeah." "Good night." "I've barely seen you all week." "Man, this stakeout thing is wreaking havoc on my sex life." "All right." "Yeah." "Come on." "Come on." "Yeah." "Let's knock it out quick though, okay?" "Yeah, I'll pass." "Yeah." "Nick, can you move your gun?" "Just put it on the shelf." "Uh-uh." "Look, I told you I don't touch these things, all right?" "Look." "For real?" "Just put it away." "You know what you need?" "Go shooting." "Get familiar." "People fear what they don't understand." "I work in a hospital, Nick." "I understand perfectly what a gun does." "Come on." "Let me take you." "We can go at lunch." "It will be fun." "Listen up, we've got two Seton Hall students coming up from the ER." "They've just been diagnosed with meningitis." "Bacterial?" "Viral." "The better of the two." "It can still be fatal if we don't treat it early." "Handle with care." "I want you to know if we die, you were the best roommate I ever had." "Shut up." "We have midterms on Monday." "How long are we gonna be here?" "It depends on how well your bodies respond to the treatment." "You have a serious infection in the fluid around your spinal cord." "This isn't something we want to rush." "Get them started on acyclovir and check the PCR results." "How did we even get this?" "It gets in through your lungs, mucous membranes." "So, you could have gotten it through sharing a lipstick or a drink." "Or by making out at that warehouse party on Saturday night." "God, Lilly." "I love them." "Okay." "This is us." "So, Lilly, I have to ask." "Besides Samantha, have you been intimate with anyone else?" "Do I have to tell you that?" "If there is someone else, they can be infected." "Right." "Well, there's just Nathan." "Just Nathan." "And who's Nathan?" "He's my boyfriend." "He's Samantha's boyfriend." "Does she know about this?" "I don't think so." "I mean, I sure didn't tell her." "Sonia, this is Harold Pindus." "He's a failing hand transplant." "And the infection appears to be spreading." "Isn't this something that his transplant team should look at?" "Yeah, they're in Louisville." "Stipe Memorial." "I already put in a call." "Don't call them." "Well, we need to find out why your body is rejecting the hand." "I can shed some light on that." "I stopped taking the drugs." "Why would you do that?" "Because I don't want it." "Am I missing something here?" "You're one of, like, 30 people in the world who have this." "You should be grateful." "I was grateful to have a hand again." "I was so grateful, I wanted to thank the donor's family." "That's when I found out he had a record." "Two convictions." "Second-degree sex offenses." "On a child." "They gave me the hand of a pedophile." "Now, I want you people to cut it off." "Check out my latest tweet." "Aloud, please?" "Sorry, Angel." ""Six hours in." "Bleeding from our eyes and ears." ""Happy side effect." "Boobs have grown a full cup size." ""Will post pics if not dead soon. "" "You're going to cause a riot on campus." "Look who stopped by." "Hello, ladies." "Nathan!" "Oh." "How about that spinal tap?" "That sucked." "How are you feeling, baby?" "A little rough." "I thought this stiff neck was from spanking it or something." "3:00 a. m." "Rolls around, and I'm, like, blowing mud like a fire hydrant." "Gross." "Yeah." "What's up, Lils?" "Hey." "This is a courtesy visit." "Hospital policy is to keep you guys isolated." "So, I can't sleep in here with my girl?" "No." "You can't." "This is a hospital." "You need to rest in your own rooms." "Give your immune systems a chance to fight this off." "Ten minutes." "Okay, guys?" "Okay, Angel." "Okay, Angel." "Okay." "Okay." "That poor girl has no idea that her boyfriend is nailing her roommate." "I know." "Two-timing boyfriend, girls macking on girls." "It's like The Real World:" "Cancun." "Dummies." "I'm so glad I'm a grown-up." "Oh, my God." "Really?" "You're gonna tell me you don't see it?" "See what?" "That those three kids are a mirror image of you, Sands, and Ladypants." "Excuse me." "I'm not macking on Ladypants." "So, there goes your theory right there." "Yeah, not yet." "I'm not participating in this conversation." "But you are participating in a love triangle." "No." "I was participating in a triangle, with Mike and Chris, but it was dismantled." "So, now, I'm just, you know..." "I'm a dot." "I'm a dot." "A mature, responsible dot." "Gillian and Chris, they're a line." "They're a line, but that line has nothing to do with my dot." "So, you see, no triangle here." "Wow." "The fact that you got really defensive and weird really convinced me." "Good." "Good." "What about Can't Help Falling in Love?" "Elvis is good, right?" "It's fine." "Fine means you don't care." "Hi." "We have to choose a song for our first dance." "Craig is being difficult." "No, fine means fine." "Right?" "Actually, I think it means, "Stop talking. "" "How about I Got You Babe?" "That is a great idea." "How about no song?" "I shouldn't be dancing in public, anyway." "It's just embarrassing for everyone." "I understand that you fainted during your dress fitting." "I took a header right off the platform." "I'm good, but the Wang knock-off needs a few stitches." "Oh." "It's a medical pun." "Plus, I have, like, 8,000 things to do." "And Craig, here, still hasn't gotten his suit fitted." "Your blood work shows an elevated white cell count." "Okay." "Doctor time." "I mean, the high fever, coughs, aches, dehydration." "This is all consistent with the flu." "But I think we're going to keep you here overnight, just so we can keep an eye on you." "Okay." "Mystery solved." "I have to check on the florist." "Give me the binder." "Craig." "Are you having abdominal pain?" "Oh." "No, it's nothing." "I just am a little bloated from this new diet." "So..." "Bloated?" "Honey, you've lost, like, 20 pounds." "Why don't I just take a closer look?" "Excuse me." "Okay." "Let's see." "Well, we have a little fluid build-up." "Let's..." "Let's get you on an ultrasound." "I'd like to take a closer look." "Okay." "Fine." "But you are going to the Men's Wearhouse, buddy." "No excuses." "Your pressure has dropped." "The infection is getting worse." "You're gonna have to go back on your medication, Harold." "No, I don't." "If I want my hand to turn purple, wither and fall off, you can't stop me." "This is America." "We can't just amputate a limb just because somebody doesn't want it." "Oh, really?" "So, if somebody sewed Hitler's head to your body, you'd be okay with that?" "I really don't think that's the same." "Answer the question, Hitler head." "First of all, there's no such thing as a head transplant." "Second, if I'm really forced to continue taking this question seriously," "I think Hitler's head is decomposed by now." "Oh, but putting those two things aside, you'd be fine?" "Let me ask you a question, Harold." "Are you a child molester?" "No." "Well, there you go." "I read the police reports." "Harold." "Why would you do that?" "Because I had to know." "Look, I'm just a regular guy, okay?" "I don't think about, like, energy or whatever." "But I know this hand is bad." "And I lie awake at night, and I think about the things that it's done and the children that it's hurt." "And I imagine that it's infecting me." "Well, where's your wife in all this?" "What does she say?" "She didn't have to say anything." "I could see it in her face." "We separated three weeks ago." "Do you understand now?" "Yeah, I guess I do." "Then help me." "JELANl:" "Well, one is sleeping with the roommate's boyfriend." "The roommate has no idea." "The campus sounds like an absolute petri dish." "And the way they carry on, it's a wonder how anyone makes it out of that university with a functioning immune system, right?" "Yeah." "It's a real soap opera over there." "So, what about the girls?" "I heard that they were, you know..." "God." "Seriously?" "That's so predictable." "I got a patient walking around with the hand of a child molester." "I'm allowed the image of a girl-on-girl kiss." "If only to cleanse my mental palate." "Wow." "JELANl:" "Chris." "We are not at the stage yet where you can say slightly creepy things in public." "And I have to play along." "Believe me, sweetie, it gets a little creepier." "Guess who?" "Simone." "What are you doing here?" "Oh." "I was in the city with a couple of days to kill." "So, I figured I'd surprise you." "This is Simone, everybody." "This is my sister." "Oh, my God." "You must be Veronica." "I am so happy to meet you." "Oh, no, this is Gillian." "Dr. Jelani." "There's Veronica, right there." "Triangle." "Oh." "Oh, I am so sorry." "No, no, no, no, no." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm just on my way to go file some charts, but it is so good to finally meet you." "You, too." "So, I'm..." "Here I go." "Okay." "We were about to grab some lunch." "You want to join us?" "Oh, I would love to." "I am starving." "So, the beaches in Biarritz are amazing." "It is the surfing capital of France." "Chris, you have got to go." "I have got a job, so..." "Okay." "Do not let this whole responsible doctor act fool you." "He did time, you know." "Stole a car." "I didn't steal a car." "I rode in a car that was stolen by her." "Legally, it doesn't matter." "Because if I held up a liquor store and murdered a guy while you were waiting in that car, you would have gone down for murder, too." "I was engaged to a DA for a minute." "See, that's what she does." "She says a lot of stuff that doesn't make sense, and then all of a sudden, you're giving her 3,000 bucks, and she's gone." "So, Simone, what is your plan now that you're back?" "I took cooking classes while I was in Paris." "Really?" "I have always wanted to do that." "Ever since I saw Sabrina." "Right?" "Oh, my God." "Anyway..." "I had a total vision one night when I was walking along the Seine." "I'm going to open my own place." "Oh, come on." "Don't do that." "It's going to be good." "All right." "A pastry shop specializing in cupcakes." "Cupcakes." "Don't you think cupcakes are a little played out?" "Not mine." "I've got a different take." "Anyway." "Guys, this lunch, it's on me." "What?" "I just..." "You just watched me pay at the cash register." "Oh, right." "Right." "Thank you." "Hey, Chris." "Could I grab you for a sec?" "Excuse me." "Hey, what's up?" "JELANl:" "It's great to meet you." "So, let me tell you all about my brother." "I'm not gonna cut a guy's hand off." "Why?" "What's it to you?" "Because it's functional." "At least there's no reason to believe it wouldn't be if he would take his meds." "It's like this thing that he never asked for." "And it's got all this weird baggage." "And it's ruining his life." "And he doesn't want it." "Can't you understand that?" "Yes." "Yes, I can." "All right, screw it." "We'll cut off the sister." "The hand." "All right." "So, this is gonna be a little cold." "Sorry." "On the iliac bone." "Lower." "So, how many people are in your wedding party?" "Oh, God." "Like, seven." "Is that obnoxious?" "No." "Craig and I are from Arizona." "And everybody's coming in next week." "Great." "Show me the ovaries." "What color are your bridesmaids' dresses?" "Um..." "Apple green." "There." "I'm having second thoughts, though." "I mean, it's a really springy color." "What?" "What is it?" "What are you looking at?" "We're looking at several growths here." "Wow." "Is there any reason I shouldn't start freaking out right now?" "That means cancer, right?" "We don't know that." "We would have to do a biopsy to be sure." "Okay, let me ask you something." "Have you ever seen growths like this and had it not be cancer?" "I'm sorry." "Um..." "Maybe we should call Craig." "So, how was lunch?" "Great." "She's a lovely girl." "Hey, Lilly?" "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "Nothing to see here." "Good God." "They're mating." "Don't you guys, like, knock?" "What are you doing?" "You are both very, very sick." "We're sorry." "It's just that we're stoned." "You're stoned?" "How are you stoned?" "Once I have already said it, you can't say "shh," Nathan." "The words already happened." "Like these words right now are happening." "Hey, can we order falafel?" "Do you realize that your girlfriend is right next door?" "Quiet down, loud talker." "We just figured if there is a chance that we could die, we might as well go out with a bang." "JELANl:" "Maybe you should think about going out with a clear conscience." "Are these hospital cupcakes?" "Well, they are in a hospital." "Ooh." "Good one, stoner." "Where did those cupcakes come from?" "Uh-oh." "I know where they came from." "Buyer's remorse, huh?" "He has his reasons." "Scalpel." "Dr. Sands, stop." "Step away from the hand." "Harold, this is Mr. Hightower." "Mr. Hightower represents Stipe Memorial." "Oh, good." "Maybe he can explain why it's so damn important to them that I keep this monstrous hand." "You signed a contract to refrain from post-operative behaviors that would compromise their ability to track the efficacy of the procedure." "What are you even talking about, you pompous blowhard?" "You sewed a child molester's hand on me." "Chief among these banned behaviors is refusal to take your anti-rejection medication." "Fine." "Sue me." "Well, Harold, the thing is, they say that they're gonna sue the hospital, too, if we cut it off." "They can't do that, can they?" "Our lawyers are looking into it." "I think you're stuck with it just for the time being." "Well, they can't force me to take the drugs." "I'll go home, and I'll let the hand rot." "You could die if you do that." "I don't care." "Orderly?" "Just wait." "The patient has made a clear suicidal threat." "You are obligated to place him under a psych hold." ""Psych hold"?" "What does that mean, "psych hold"?" "It means they won't let you go home." "The results of your biopsy came back." "The cancer is late stage and aggressive." "I don't understand." "How could we have missed this?" "Ovarian cancer is very rare in women of Sharra's age." "It's easy to overlook." "Does this mean I can't have children?" "Probably so." "We wanted kids." "We talked about that." "What do I need a kid for?" "I mean, everybody says they ruin your life, right?" "Look, we'll adopt." "It's okay." "I just need you to get better, okay?" "Sharra, one of your tumors is impinging on your aorta." "If it continues to grow, it could be deadly." "I wanna have it removed." "What?" "You mean surgery?" "Well, the problem is your oxygen saturation is..." "It's 89% because of the flu." "It's very low." "It raises the surgical risk to an unacceptably high level." "Listen, I'm going to do everything that I can to clear your lungs and get your pulse ox up to 100." "As of right now, you're my only patient." "So..." "Take that stuff away." "We still need a song." "It's over!" "Okay, you may want to try, like, just a quarter of that, and see how it goes for you." "Hey." "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "What are you talking about?" "You said I could hang out." "Selling pot cupcakes in the hospital was not part of the deal." "Whoa." "Excuse me." "I am not selling anything." "These bad boys are samples." "Are you insane?" "What are you..." "Since when are you against a little weed?" "Those kids have meningitis." "This is no time for them to be getting high." "Okay, what am I, a doctor?" "No, which is exactly why you shouldn't be giving out drugs in a hospital." "Not to mention it's illegal." "I can't believe I actually have to explain this to you." "I was just trying to make people feel better." "Look, they're natural." "They come from the earth." "How much of your life comes from the earth?" "I have a lot of degrees, Simone." "But I have no idea how to answer that retarded question." "Okay." "Wait, wait, wait." "You need to go now." "Bye." "Well, could you at least recommend a good bar?" "Because these things make me thirsty." "What are you doing up here?" "I'm depressed." "I have a 26-year-old patient with late-stage ovarian cancer." "Oh, that's rough." "Yeah." "And she's lovely." "She's about to get married." "And she's my age." "We could..." "We could be friends." "Try and keep a little distance." "You'll be more help to her that way." "Also, if you don't cry every time you look at her." "I know." "I'm not crying." "I just..." "I just came up here to clear my head for a second." "And find out the latest on the show." "So, what's the latest?" "Well, they were totally doing it in there." "Nathan and Lilly?" "Oh, my God." "Poor Samantha." "I feel so bad for her." "Why?" "She's young." "She'll meet someone else." "Lilly and Nathan are meant to be together." "I mean, they met first during the presidential campaign." "They totally bonded going door-to-door for Obama." "Aw." "See, but Lilly hadn't broken up with her high school boyfriend yet." "So, Nathan didn't think that he'd ever get a shot at her again." "So, he ended up going out with Samantha, who turned out to be Lilly's roommate." "No." "I know, right?" "Well, I'm on Team Lilly." "Because, you know, she's you, right?" "No, she's not." "I am an adult." "We are all adults." "Chris, Gillian, everybody." "All adults." "Mmm-hmm." "All you need is little Mike, and then you've got the whole movie." "Hey, can I get a shot of bourbon with a beer back?" "Preferably something European." "Sure." "Serious order." "Yeah, it's been a serious day." "Serious life." "Can you get a shot for my friend, here?" "He looks like he could use one." "Put it on my tab, Jamie." "Drinks bourbon and speaks French." "My name is Simone." "Mike." "Good to meet you, Mike." "Likewise." "All right, those are the rules." "Let's all take a practice shot." "Veronica?" "You go first." "Yeah!" "Take that, zombie!" "That will teach you to come back from the dead." "Technically, you have to hit zombies in the head to kill them." "But whatever." "You're on the board." "Good work." "Basic training." "I can dig a latrine, too." "Good to know." "All right, Chloe, you're up." "I just want to say..." "Oh." "I just want to say that, like Sonia," "I'm very uncomfortable with guns, and I wish we'd have gone to the mall instead." "Thank you." "Duly noted." "Like this?" "Mmm-hmm." "Okay." "Okay, not bad." "You wanna..." "Whoo!" "Yeah, yeah!" "Whoo!" "Get some!" "Yeah!" "Oh!" "Whoo!" "Whoo!" "Oh, no, no, no." "I'm out of a clip." "I need some more ammo, stat!" "No, you need a therapist." "No, I need..." "I want to go again." "No." "Son." "No, I'm not feeling it." "She's crazy." "I'll do it." "No, no." "All right, Calamity Payne." "Come on." "We came here for you." "No, no, no, no, no." "We came here for you." "Okay, fine." "Then do it for me." "Come on, it's easy." "Look." "Come on." "On three." "Come on." "Nice and easy." "Just squeeze." "On three." "One, two, three." "It's 92." "It's still very low." "All right." "Well, we can't wait." "I'm going to schedule your surgery for tomorrow morning." "But you said it's too risky." "Her low pulse ox does make it more complicated, but with a good night's sleep..." "How complicated?" "Could this operation kill me?" "Shar." "Please, I just need all the bad news at once." "What are my chances?" "If I had to put a number on it," "I'd say 50%." "Oh, babe." "Let's get married." "What?" "Right now." "Why?" "Do you think I won't make it?" "No." "No." "Because we love each other." "And because you're scared, and I'm scared." "I want to be your husband right now." "Honey, how would we even do it?" "Nothing's ready." "We can do it here." "Don't worry." "We'll figure it out." "We'll do it here." "She's right over there." "Excuse me." "Sonia?" "I'm Amy Pindus." "You left me a message?" "I need to get him to accept his hand." "He won't." "The doctors said the hand would regain 70% of its functionality because of its muscle memory." "It doesn't forget the things it's done." "And neither can Harold." "Well, he seems to think that you can't either." "I don't know." "I'm certainly not happy about it." "Does that make me a bad person?" "No." "But I think you need to decide if you want to stay with him." "Of course I do." "Okay, well, these lawyers are gonna make his life miserable, whether they have a case or not." "And his life is pretty miserable enough the way it is." "So I think the easiest thing is for you to convince him that you can live with the hand." "And what if that's not entirely true?" "You tell him, anyway." "You lie." "Sometimes, that's what love is." "Hey." "Look who I found roaming the halls." "Amy." "What are you doing here?" "I was worried about you." "Well, you don't have to worry." "I've got my own babysitter." "They're not gonna take it off, Amy." "I know." "I don't care." "Of course you care." "I know you're repulsed, and you have every right to be." "I don't care where it came from." "It's just a hand." "It's your hand." "Just tell them that you'll take the drugs." "Come home, Harold." "Reverend Todd?" "Hey, Chloe." "Hey." "So, listen, I'm trying to throw the world's saddest wedding." "The bride's going into surgery tomorrow, and I don't think she's going to survive." "Would you perform the ceremony?" "Sure." "I'll try." "I'm a little backed up right now." "This marching band got into a bus accident." "Everybody's fine." "They're just a little shook up." "Marching band." "How long has this been going on for?" "What's going on?" "Lilly finally fessed up about Nathan." "I cannot believe you two!" "You should have told me!" "I was going to tell you!" "I swear!" "You liar!" "All right, all right." "Okay." "Calm down, you guys." "Okay." "Sam, come on." "It's not like you were totally faithful." "I mean, we hooked up." "Say..." "Say what?" "More than once." "All we did was make out and stuff." "The two of you had sex!" "Well, that was just..." "Hold on one sec here." "If you're into Lilly, and I'm into Lilly, then maybe we can make an arrangement." "That's a great idea, Nathan." "Why don't we all go back to our rooms and think that one over, okay?" "Sam?" "Sam." "Sam!" "Hey." "Get Gillian." "All right." "What's happening to her?" "Just give us some space." "Sam?" "Samantha, look at me." "Look at me." "Can you look at me?" "What's going on?" "You're at Mercy Hospital, Samantha." "You had a seizure." "Okay." "Yeah." "You're okay, Samantha." "Where am I?" "You're at Mercy Hospital." "Here you go." "Can you call my mom?" "I want my mom." "Yeah." "Yeah, I can call your mom." "Frankie is gonna take you back to your room, okay?" "Okay." "Come on." "Here you go." "Thank you." "Is she okay?" "She suffered some memory loss." "But that's normal after a seizure." "Yeah, it will come back." "That's good, right?" "Well, that depends on what she remembers." "Let's get you back to your room, Lilly." "I screwed everything up." "I guess I thought that me and Nathan were supposed to be together forever." "But that's not true." "I stirred up all this drama, and now, Samantha's really sick." "Excuse me." "Okay." "Now, Sharra, repeat after me." "From this day on," "I choose you, Craig Barrow, to be my husband." "From this day on," "I choose you, Craig Barrow, to be my husband." "To love and cherish, in sickness and in health." "To love and cherish in stage three ovarian cancer and in health." "For richer or for poorer, as long as we both shall live." "For richer or poorer as long as we both shall live." "By the powers vested in me, by the great state of New Jersey," "I now pronounce you man and wife." "Whoo!" "Sorry." "It was either this or the theme from Star Wars." "Thank you." "It's perfect." "Hey, hey, baby!" "Try and make me look good." "I want to know if you'll be my girl" "Hey, hey, baby!" "I want to know if you'll be my girl" "Hey." "Good cake." "Is there any marijuana in it?" "No." "I banished my sister from the hospital." "Ah." "She would totally do that, though." "She'd bake a pot cake, and then, she'd dose it to some unsuspecting doctors while they're on duty." "God, she's such a pain in the ass." "Chris, take it easy." "She's not even here." "Besides, you told me in Iraq you thought she was fun." "We were having an affair." "I didn't wanna seem like an angry guy." "Do you hear those sirens?" "Fifty bucks says she's involved." "She's probably driving the fire truck." "It's not all her fault, though." "Our house wasn't the easiest place to grow up." "I think..." "I think when I left for college, it was hard on her." "I wish I had been there." "Well, you're here now." "Right?" "Yeah." "Anyway, I will see you later." "Hey." "Hey." "Do you mind if I take this one for a test drive?" "That was nice, what you did." "It was nothing." "Is she going to die?" "I hope not." "Oh, Reverend." "Would you mind taking these beverages?" "No." "Chloe, would you like to dance?" "Oh." "No, no." "I don't know how." "Well, Chloe, I'm so good that you don't have to know how." "Besides, it's a wedding." "We should dance." "Oh." "Yes." "Yes." "I started life right-handed." "Took me a long time to learn to write with this one." "People can get used to anything, I guess." "I re-learned most things, but there was one thing I could never do." "It's kind of an overrated custom, don't you think?" "Thank you." "Hey, you think that wedding reception's still going on?" "I could eat an entire sheet of cake right now." "Probably gone already." "That marching band looked ravenous." "Yeah, probably." "It has been, like, five hours, and I can still smell that gunpowder on me." "It's in your nose." "It gets on the hairs in there." "Code Gray." "Orderlies." "OR 3." "Code Gray." "Stat." "What's going on?" "Some dude just locked himself in OR 3, and I guess he won't come out." "Harold, don't!" "Harold, don't!" "Please stop him!" "Harold?" "Harold?" "Harold, put it down." "Harold?" "Harold, stop it!" "Harold!" "How are you feeling?" "It hurts." "Even with the morphine, I can tell it's gonna be a bitch." "Haircuts and surgery." "Things we don't do to ourselves." "We'll get through it." "I had to do it, you know." "You could have bled out." "I thought I could be okay with it, but I couldn't." "Some things you just can't live with, you know?" "Yeah, I know." "Anyway, I've been mugged before, and I can take care of myself." "But my pepper spray was confiscated by Customs." "So, I maced the guy with this little bottle of Chanel that I got at the duty-free." "At least he smelled good." "Exactly." "So, you've really been around." "Watch it." "No, no, I just mean..." "I mean, I've barely been out of Jersey." "Grew up seven blocks from this bar." "Married my grade-school sweetheart." "Now, that's over." "What a waste." "You need to get out of here." "What I need is to figure out what I'm gonna do with my life." "Yeah." "Well, you're not gonna figure it out sitting here." "You need to go somewhere where you would never go." "Just get Jersey City out of sight, out of mind." "You need to go on a vision quest." "Vision quest." "Hey." "What's going on here?" "Hey." "How do you guys know each other?" "Oh, this is my brother." "Your sister is a real inspiration." "See you later, Simone." "Bye, Mike." "Did you have sex with him?" "No." "Why would you say that?" "Precedent." "Brad Longo, sophomore year." "I did not have sex with Brad Longo." "We did other stuff." "And anyway, what was that?" "Simone, why are you here?" "You mean besides money?" "Okay, it's money, but it's not my fault this time." "Remember I was living with that guy, Michel?" "Yeah." "The hedge fund guy." "Well, his fund, like our relationship, was a spectacular failure." "How much did you lose?" "You know, I don't know." "But it's manageable." "I'll just wait a couple weeks and hit up Mom." "I really liked him, Chris." "I'm sorry." "Yeah, well, you know, it's okay." "So, anyway, how are things with you?" "Good, you know." "I like my job all right." "And Gillian's great." "Mmm." "What?" "You don't like her?" "Oh, no, I think Gillian's great." "I do." "But she's not Veronica, is she?" "You don't even know Veronica." "Well, I feel like I do after everything that you told me." "And I'm sorry, but when you came back from Iraq..." "I don't know." "I've never seen you like that before." "You were glowing." "It was the malaria shots." "You came all this way for her." "And everyone else thought you were crazy, but I didn't." "I was rooting for you." "So, what happened?" "It's a long story." "How about you come back to my house?" "I'll tell you all the sordid details." "Really?" "Come on." "So, I can stay?" "Yeah." "Oh, goodie, goodie, goodie." "For a few days." "You can't stay forever." "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you." "I promise I'll behave." "Hope you're hungry." "I am." "Yeah." "Maybe one of us should learn how to cook." "Hey." "Hey." "Nick?" "Hmm?" "I hate your gun." "I'm serious." "But you kicked ass today." "I thought you were cool with it." "I lied." "I'm a cop, Sonia." "I need a gun." "I know." "You don't have to leave it lying around the house or the car." "Okay." "Yeah." "And maybe you can take it off when you hug me from now on." "How is she doing?" "The infection seems to have run its course." "The phenytoin should keep her free from any further seizures." "So, the other two left today?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Their parents came in and picked them up." "They're just dumb kids." "It's crazy, huh?" "Glad I'm not in college anymore." "If you're gonna make a play for Chris," "I'd appreciate it if you did it soon." "Gillian, wait." "Do you..." "I know that you're with Chris." "I just don't want a big soap opera here." "I want people to be adult and honest and say what they mean." "Is that too much to ask?" "Is it time?" "It's time." "I don't think they're gonna let you wear your rings." "Oh, right."
