"Previously on 90210..." "Dr Sukaly, I got my donor's signature giving up his paternal rights." "I really need to get my forms back." "I realized I made a mistake." "That's why we called the donor." " You forged my signature?" " Teddy..." " I can explain." " No, you can't." "I need to speak to one of your guests, Max Miller." "It's urgent." "WOMAN:" "I'm sorry." "Mr. Miller never checked in." "Mr. and Mrs. Miller?" "I'm wondering if you maybe heard from..." " Max." " DIXON:" "Do you think, just because you cheated on me that you'll be able to walk out of my new company?" "You signed a contract." "I own you." "Where's this coming from?" "No talking." "Dixon, we need to talk." "Seriously?" "I'm starting to take us, together, more seriously." "I don't know what to say." "I act like this whole wheelchair thing doesn't change anything, but I know that it does." "Eventually, she's either gonna feel like she can't take this on anymore, or that I'm holding her back." "Dr. Bronson, I've changed my mind." "I want to go through with the spinal surgery." "I'm not insane. (groans)" "ASHLEY:" "I'm doing this for you." "You'll be traveling in this." " You're gonna put me in a box?" " If you won't let me protect you, you leave me no other choice." "No!" "(gunshot)" "ANNIE:" "What you went through..." " I can't imagine." "Are you sure you're gonna be okay?" " Yeah." "Absolutely." "Have a nice day." "What the hell's wrong with you?" "And while I was busy trying to get Max's job back..." "Which I asked her not to do..." "Max was supposed to be in Iceland, at an international geek conference." "Instead, he was hiding at his parents' house, watching Star Wars in footie pajamas." "MAX:" "Thermal underwear." "The basement has a damp draft, so..." "I rest my case." "Look, I..." "I know that I shouldn't have lied about going to Iceland, but..." "she keeps trying to run my life." "This morning, I found a business card in my pant pocket for a spiritual advisor." "NAOMI:" "Who was single-handedly responsible for Madonna's comeback." "Max, your future affects me, too... we're married." "Marriage isn't about picking a... a single life course." "It's about being happier together while pursuing your own dreams." "Do you have a career, Naomi?" "Absolutely." "I'm an event planner." "She hasn't planned an event since my wedding." "My... my other wedding." "Is it possible you're overly-focused on Max because you're having a hard time establishing your own identity in this marriage?" "No, no, no..." "I'm not the one who ran away." "(scoffs)" "This is about Max." "I'm here to help." "I love..." "I love you, Max." "I..." "I want you to be happy." "In that case, it sounds like what Max needs is to be able to make his own decisions." "Okay." "That's fine." "WOMAN:" "Great." "Naomi, I suggest you spend some time focusing on yourself." "You may be surprised to find you need it as much as Max does." "Absolutely." "From here on out, it's all about me." "(laughs)" "Teddy..." "Hey." "Please stop." "Look, I'm sorry to ambush you, but I went to the beach house." "Dixon said you've hardly been there, and you haven't returned any of my calls." "'Cause I don't want to see you." "Look, when your Uncle Charles insisted that we destroy the embryos, yeah, I freaked out, and yes, I..." "I forged your signature, but I went to the clinic so that I could get the paternity rights waiver back." "I would never have gone through with it." ""It" meaning what?" "Silver, what exactly was your plan?" "Steal the embryos, get knocked up and run away, hoping I wouldn't hear about it?" "That's kidnapping." "It's a felony." "Just like forging my signature." "If I pressed charges, you could go to prison." "You're my best friend, and deep down, you know that we can work this out." "Otherwise, why are you still in town?" "Because my lawyers are drawing up a petition to destroy the embryos." "(techno musical intro plays)" "♪ 'Cause, baby, when you look straight into my fries ♪" "♪ You can't get away without a side ♪" "♪ 'Cause I'm a shake charmer. ♪" "(music stops)" "Okay, that's good." "Thank you." "Look, I went to your launch party, and I apologized for being late." "How much longer are you going to torture me?" "This isn't torture, Ade." "It's income." "I invested all the money" "Annie gave me into getting studio space and equipment." "Like it or not, you signed a contract giving me the rights to exploit you "in all markets""" "I can't release you till I'm out of the hole." "Well, I'll be singing denture jingles by then." "I promise you that every cent of my commission is going to pay off the label's debt." "If you don't believe me, you can call the accountant." "Morning." "Morning, babe." "Hey, Adrianna." "Nice to see you, too." "(sighs)" "Yeah, uh, don't worry about Ade." "She'll come around." "She's, uh, actually a nice girl... when she's not cheating on me, or trying to kill Silver, or pregnant and on drugs." "I just can't imagine why things didn't work out with you two." "Anyway, Adrianna's the least of my problems right now." "What do you mean?" "I just got my tuition statement for CU." "My dad didn't have life insurance, and there's no way my mom can pay for school." "Without a job or three," "I might have to move back to San Diego." "But hey, maybe we can be pen pals." "Whoa." "No, no, no, no." "We'll find you a scholarship or something." "No, I just came from the financial aid office." "They're trying, but even loans are hard to get this late in the year." "Okay." "Well, um, come work here for me." "Dixon, the label's in debt." "I'm not going to be anybody's charity case." " But I just want to help." " I know, but the best way you can help is just to stay out of it." "And I'm a big girl." "I can take care of myself." "Hey." "Here's, uh, another one, just in case." "I thought maybe you would..." "Awesome!" "This can be the smothering pillow." "Liam, I'm fine." "I told you." "Plus, I have finally uploaded the homecoming photos, so if I weren't feeling better already," "I definitely would be now." "Mm-hmm." "Ugh." "The one day I decided not to shave my legs. (laughs)" "Um..." "I must have missed that one." "You okay?" "I'm fine." "Yeah, I'm not the one that got shot by Ashley, right?" "I think I'm just gonna go to the gym." "I'll catch you later." "Hey, man." "How you holding up?" "I'm fine." "I'm fine." "Uh... pff!" " Well, hey." " Hmm." "I brought over some of your stuff from the beach house, where you could still stay and let me take care of you." "Thank you, but I feel like" "I should be here for Liam, you know?" "I'm worried about him." "Yeah." "He, uh, did it up with this whole nursemaid routine, huh?" "Yeah." "Actually, those are from Riley." ""To the cutest shooting victim I know."" "You guys must be getting really serious, huh?" "Yeah." "He is." "At Navid's Christmas party," "Riley basically said he was falling in love with me." "And you said...?" "Oh." " Oh?" " I didn't know what else to say!" "I mean, I really like Riley, but do I want to get serious?" "Guess I'll have to decide before he gets back from his family vacation." "Uh, Annie..." "Riley's not on family vacation." "Yeah, um, a few days ago, a trainer told me that Riley went out to the San Jose Spinal Center to get experimental surgery." "What?" "!" "Why didn't you tell me?" "You were kind of busy getting shot. (scoffs)" "And plus, I didn't know it had anything to do with you at all." "Look, around Christmas, Riley was worried that you weren't taking the relationship seriously because of his handicap." "And I basically told him that was true when I said I didn't know how I felt." "Oh, my God." "(sighs)" "Please pick up." "Damn it..." "San Jose Spinal Center?" "Hi." "Riley Wallace, please." "He's already prepping for surgery." "Well, uh, th... this is..." "Melinda from his insurance company, and we're having difficulty processing his claim, and we can't authorize the surgery, so can you just tell him to hang tight for a couple days?" "Thank you." "Annie, did you just lie to a hospital?" "He can't do this until I talk to him." "Let's go." "You're driving me to San Jose." "(groans quietly in pain)" "MAN:" "Hey, congratulations." "The bag's dead." "Had a rough couple of days." "I'm just trying to work off some stress." "Seen you a lot this week." "You don't talk much." " I'm not here to talk." "I'm here to hit stuff." " You ever think about hitting something that actually hits back?" "All the time." "Well, I got a fighter that could use a sparring partner." "If you're comfortable getting in the ring," " I'll pair you up." " Yeah, absolutely." "Rules are simple." "Rounds start and end with the bell." "No knocks to the head or the groin." "Carlos has a big match later and needs an easy warm-up." "Now, we're working on holding down his left, so I want you to throw low and right when you can." "Here we go, Carlos." "Touch gloves, fighters." "(bell rings)" "Good." "Keep it low." "That's good." "Good." "That a boy." "Good." "Keep it low." "Keep it low!" "That a boy." "Keep moving." "Watch your head!" "Watch your head!" "(grunts)" "Hey!" "What the hell were you thinking?" "I don't know." "(speaking quietly)" "(panting)" "(theme music playing)" "I was just throwing punches trying not to get hit too hard." "Before I knew it, the guy on his ass." "I mean, I feel bad for flooring him, but... man, it felt good." "Sounds like a better outlet for anger than hitting tennis balls." "Oh, am I glad to see you guys." "All these business school prerequisites." "Man, that last class was brutal." "Couldn't have been any worse than my conversation with Silver this morning." "Ah, sorry, man, spare us the details." "Silver's our friend, too, and things tend to get a little complicated in the Silver baby situation." "We're Switzerland." "We remain neutral." "Well, I don't blame you guys for wanting to stay out of it." "The whole situation is a nightmare." "Well, hey, if hitting tennis balls doesn't help, join me at the gym sometime." "Speaking of which, I got to run." "See you guys later." "He's pretty chipper for a guy who was almost shipped to Mexico in a crate." "Man, I wish my life looked so good." "I'm trying to make a comeback, after dropping out of Princeton." "Oh, so I applied for the honors business program," "Mm-hmm." "But they don't accept applications mid-semester." "Uh, so without some serious pull, my chances of getting in pretty much suck." "MAN:" "Teddy Montgomery." "No way." "I didn't know you were back on this coast, man." "Campbell Price." "Hey, this is Navid Shirazi." " What's up?" " Hey." "Campbell was" " an old classmate of mine from boarding school." " "Classmate"?" "That's cold, Monty." "We were partners in crime and, according to the Dean of Students, "total asses."" "Which I still don't think is very nice thing to call the two guys who sent a stripper to your mom's funeral, but..." " Ah, the good old days." " Uh-huh." "Hey, I'm head of Cronus now." "You should come to our next meeting." "Actually, I'm just in town visiting friends, so..." "Mm." "Too bad." "We're about to sacrifice a virgin." "(laughs) I'm kidding." "Like I know any virgins." "Yeah. (laughs)" "All right, man, good seeing you." " Good seeing you, too." " No!" "That's the Cronus Society." "Well, that's that secret elite group." "Well, basically the, uh, west coast version of Skull and Bones." "Exactly." "A bunch of douchey guys using their connections to get ahead." "Man." "That's exactly what I need." " What?" " Later." "Late..." "later." "DIXON:" "Okay, so, look, I'll be back tomorrow night, okay?" "I need you to unlock the door for the sound mixer... oh, and if Ade has any gigs, just tag along, rep the label." "It's glorified baby-sitting." "(laughs) There is nothing "glorified"" "about baby-sitting your ex-girlfriend." "She hates me." "Is this some elaborate trick to get me to work for you?" "No, no!" "Not at... look, I know you won't take any favors, but can you at least give one?" "I..." "I really need your help, Megan." " Please?" " Fine." "Only as a favor." "I'll see you when you get back." "Thank you." "Here." "We don't have time to stop for dinner." "You know, I really wish you would have told me about Riley when you first found out." "Look, I was just trying to protect you, okay?" "But, I guess just like everyone else, you don't want me to." "What are you talking about?" "Okay, look... when I first got into my accident, you broke down a wall in my house and moved in, okay?" "Wh... when I was addicted, you paid for my rehab." "When was the last time you let me do anything for you, Annie?" "So, what, you're mad at me for helping?" "I'm not mad at you." "I..." "I'm mad at Megan." "She can't afford her tuition and she might have to leave Los Angeles, and she won't let me help her." "Look, I..." "I know we barely started dating, but when you meet the right person, you just know." "And you'd do anything to keep them." "Yeah." "Like, uh, impersonating an insurance agent and driving all night, huh?" "Something like that, yeah." "Come on." "Let's go." "(Dixon sighs)" "♪" "(engine starts)" "Surprise." "I know it's not your birthday, but I am gifting you the Naomi Clark" "Makeover of the Century. (laughs)" "Now, strip." "Hi, Naomi." "Whoa!" "(chuckles)" "Are we going somewhere?" "Like a hooker convention?" "(laughs) Okay, look, my marriage counselor said" "I need to give Max some space, but I'm dying of boredom." "God knows, you have nothing going on, so I was thinking you could distract me." "Tut-tut, just because you're gonna be a mom doesn't mean you have to dress like one." "Actually, I'm not." "What?" "Going to be a mom." "Teddy changed his mind." "Oh, my God, Sil." "Are you okay?" "It's a lot to process." "But, actually, I'm almost relieved." "I've spent so many months not knowing if I would ever even have this baby, that... at least I finally have the answer." "Way to put a positive spin on it." "Besides, you know what?" "Teddy's not the only guy out there with sperm." "Maybe next time you can find a hot he who will inseminate you the fun way. (clicks tongue)" "Yeah, totally." "That could be my new project." "Step one: dress sexier." "You seriously don't have any better way to give Max space other than Project Baby Daddy?" "Actually, I have had quite a few job offers lately." "You know, they e-mail me... one of them was a beauty pageant that the director's fallen out of, and..." "I don't know, it's so plebian." "You know, they don't even have a celebrity judge." "Maybe you could help." "Oh, and why would I want to do that?" "Because once you see all those women in their bikinis, you will be reminded of all the baby weight you never have to lose." "Okay, when you put it that way..." " Yes." "Why not?" "I'm in." " Mm-hmm." " This one?" " No." "(chuckles) It's too long." "I know." "Why do you have my stuff?" "Sorry, but you can't train here anymore." "Carlos had to forfeit his fight this afternoon because he was seeing double." "Look, I didn't mean to hurt him." "He'll be fine." "But you're lucky it wasn't worse." "Come on, man, I'm sorry, I..." "I'll stick to the bag until I know what I'm doing." "This isn't about knowing the rules." "You clearly have some stuff you got to work out and I can't afford you're gonna work that out on one of my fighters." "I'm sorry." "(sighs)" "ADRIANNA:" "I'm doing this as a favor for my friend Naomi." "You really don't have to be here." "Trust me, I'd rather be at a dentist appointment, but I promised Dixon I'd represent the label at every gig you book." "I'll stay out of your way." "(gasps) Ade!" "Thank you for pitching in at the last second." "No problem." "So, which pageant is this?" "Oh, well, it's a funny story, actually... (girls screaming, squealing, shrieking)" "Little Miss Tinseltown." "And you forgot to mention that detail when you called?" "Look, if I knew what this was," "I would have never signed up for it." "But having said that, spending time with them, they're actually really cute." "(laughs) Oh, my God." "♪" "Look, Silver's helping out, too." "If she can stand to be around the little monsters, so can you." "(sighs) Okay, what do you need me to do?" "Just sing one teensy little song with them, and I promise, I will owe you one." "Am I even being paid for this?" "I'm sorry, but I can't let Adrianna work for less than her standard rate." "Plus the added risk of contact with germy little "prostitots"?" "We'll need hazard pay." "That's not really my call." "You can speak to the pageant officials." "Happy to." "As soon as you stock Ade's dressing room with her favorite..." " Cheese plate." " Cheese plate." "A... and fruit." "Okay." "I will have Silver go to that little stinky French place you like." "Okay..." " what was that?" " I'm pre-law at CU." "It's not too different from arguing a case with my contract law professor." "Except Naomi has better shoes and a smaller mustache." "(laughs)" "♪" "Hey, uh," "Campbell, hey." " Uh, Navid Shirazi." " Yeah." " We met yesterday." " Oh, yeah." "Good to see you." "Hey, uh, that's funny that we should run into each other so randomly." "(laughs) Teddy has been trying to convince me to join the Cronus Society, but, uh, you know, just because I'm a National Merit scholar doesn't mean I'm some sort of genius or anything." "I'm sorry, man, Cronus isn't really an academic club, so..." "Maybe give MENSA a shot, though." " All right?" " Uh, wait." "But I..." "I thought, uh, the Cronus Society was full of, uh, elite overachievers." "Yeah, it is." "Cronus has it all." "Except for fun." "That's why I wanted to get Teddy in." "I mean, his dad's a movie star." " Oh, yeah." " Hook us up with a little excitement, but it didn't pan out." "So... good seeing you." "Hey, uh, uh..." "I know movie stars, too." "Well, have you ever seen Corporate Invaders?" "♪" "Excuse me?" "I'm looking for Riley Wallace." "He's in room 14." "You go." "I'll park the car." "Thanks." "Annie?" "What are you doing here?" "I love you." "Well, I guess I should send flowers more often." "I..." "I mean it." "I love you." "I didn't know what to say at Christmas." "I mean, you're rude, and obnoxious," " and you make very inappropriate jokes..." " Whoa, slow down before I run off and try to marry myself." "But there's nobody like you, Riley." "And if you're getting this surgery because you think I can't love you exactly the way you are, then you're wrong." "Annie, I'm glad you came, but I sort of already had the surgery." "What?" "That's impossible." "I called the hospital and told them your insurance didn't clear." "That was you?" "Listen... number one, it's an experimental surgery, so it's not even covered by insurance." "And, number two... you're the first girl that's ever committed fraud for me." "Yeah, well, I guess the thought of losing you made me kind of insane." "But you didn't lose me." "I'm right here." "And, since I'm all drugged up on painkillers and being sincere:" "I love you, too." "I may be planning a mere kiddie pageant... please don't get me started about how horrible that is, but... it is going to be the best damn kiddie pageant" " anyone's ever seen." " Yeah." "What we need now are some cupcake bras." "Mommy, mommy!" "Sorry, she thinks you're the judges." "She's sucking up so she can win." "Come on, honey, let's go." "Silver..." "I'm fine." "I'm fine." "If you want to back out right now," "I will not be mad." "I'm fine." "Really and-and totally fine." "If anything, that was... that was an affirmation that I dodged a bullet." "Um, I got to go." "I have 75 corsages to make by tomorrow morning." "Sorry about that." "WOMAN:" "Hello, Naomi." "Rachel, what are you doing here?" "My best friend has a daughter competing." "And when I heard that you were running the show," "I couldn't resist stopping by." "(weak laugh) After all, I had to see what you gave up New York for." "Oh, no, no." "I didn't... give up New York for toddler pageants." "I gave up New York for love." "Oh." "I didn't realize it had to be one or the other." "The girl who I hired has done an amazing job with New York." "In fact, I'm sending her to Tokyo to open up our next offices." "Oh, that's so lovely." "Frankly, I'd always envisioned that kind of a future for you, but I'm so thrilled that you've found what makes you happy." "Of course." "I married the love of my life." "What more could I possibly want?" "Well, then... congratulations." "So good seeing you, Naomi." "(chuckles) Good to see you..." "Rachel." "NAVID:" "Hello!" " Ah, hey." " Hey." "What's this?" "Yeah." "Uh, I'm making kiddie corsages for Naomi's beauty pageant." "Wow." "Wow." "It'll be fun." "What's up with you?" "I was just seeing if I could borrow some shot glasses for a thing I'm throwing tonight." "Got a couple hours." "Need help?" "Definitely." "Yes." "Thank you." "Jump in." "All right, what do I do?" "Um, take a bunch like this." "(wire cutter snips) Just three?" "Wrap that around it." "NAVID:" "So, uh, how are things?" "It's been a while." "Everything's great." "Look at me, I'm a children's florist." "Yeah." "Nice." "Aah!" "Great." "All right, hold on." "Hold on." "Aw." "Aw." "There." "All better." "It's funny to think I'll never get to do this for my own kid." "I'll never get to do this... for my own kid." "(voice breaking):" "I keep saying that I'm fine." "I'm trying really... hard to be fine, but I'm..." " I'm not fine." " Hey, come on, Silver." "I know Teddy backed out." " We can still find someone else." " No, I can't." "The doctors said that I... (sighs)" "I can't do another IVF." "The hormones could kill me." "Those two embryos were my only shot at having my own kavi." "Does it matter?" "What I did to him was so messed up." "I don't..." "I don't think I'm ever gonna get pregnant or... ever have my own baby." "And it's all my fault." "So, I checked out of the hotel..." "Do you guys need a second?" "No, I should probably check with Dr. Bronson" " to make sure the lab's ready for you anyway." " Okay." "Hey, man, I'm, uh..." "I'm glad you're okay." "You're not gonna try to... kiss me, too, right now, are you?" "No, no, no." "But I will apologize." "When I told Annie about the surgery," "I wasn't expecting her to go crazy and call the clinic." "Well, can you blame her?" "I mean, I'm... kind of irresistible." "(chuckles) Okay, yes, your sister went temporarily insane, but she did it for the right reasons, you know?" "She thought that her... incredibly handsome boyfriend was gonna bite the bullet, so, sometimes in situations like these, the ends justify the means." "Okay, time to get poked with needles." "RILEY:" "Wait to be impressed with how manly I can be." "(grunts)" " RILEY:" "All right, man." " All right." "See you." "Uh, yes, is this the CU Financial Aid Office?" "Yes, yes, um..." "I'd like to set up an anonymous scholarship for one of your students." "MAX:" "You ever gonna reopen this place?" "'Cause I could really use a beer." "Help yourself." " They're cold." " Thanks." "Nice suit." "Yeah, I've been on seven interviews in the last 48 hours." "Do I go with the small start-up with huge growth potential or do I play it safe with the established conglomerate?" "My biggest decision today was whether or not to murder this alien with an ice pick or a crowbar." "♪ Crowbar." "That's my game!" " Our game." " Yeah." "(laughs) Look at... look at tiny strong Liam with his little shovel." "I'm supposed to be stocking the fridge for Navid's party, but I'm getting a strange satisfaction out of seeing" " how many ways tiny Liam can kill these aliens." " Mm." "You want to play?" "Yeah." "Don't... don't use the fire hose... it's a trap." "What's wrong with the fire hose?" "I already... (Liam groans)" "Yeah. (sighs)" "So pathetic." "MAX:" "Man, this is fun." "I mean, I spent so much time writing this game," "I never actually got the chance to..." " try the final product." " Yeah, well, sure beats polishing your résumé and talking to conglomerates." "(quiet laugh)" "You're absolutely right." "Dude." "Dude, dude, d... (groans)" "You let the oracle die." "I'm sorry." "Here." "Here." "You're better at it." "I got to go." "Yeah." "(sighs)" "Ade, you will enter stage left, and that will be right after the cotton candy clouds part." "Sounds great." "Not as great as Tokyo, but that little girl is probably a sad, lonely wretch who hasn't gone on a date in months." "What?" "Who?" "What?" "No one." "Huh?" "Oh." "The juice boxes need restocking." "Yay." "MEGAN:" "Oh, yes." "Thank you so much." "Good news?" "I just got a scholarship that will cover my tuition for next semester." "I was this close to selling fries, like you, except from behind the cash register with a tacky polyester uniform." "Not that you care." "At all." "Sorry." "Uh, sound check's in 45 minutes." "Thanks." "And congratulations." "The scholarship sounds great." "Thank you." "And..." "I'm sorry I have been such a bitch." "What happened with me and Dixon has nothing to do with you." "I know it sounds weird coming from his ex-girlfriend... but you're actually pretty cool." "Thanks." "You're not so bad yourself." "(knocking on door) Come in." "We need to talk." "(chuckles) Okay, look, I'm sorry." "I didn't realize this Cronus Society thing meant so much to you." "I'll call Campbell and put in a good word for you." "Yeah, that's, um, not why I'm here." "Do you have any idea what Silver's going through?" "No, and I don't care." "She's lucky I'm not dragging her ass to court." "She's your best friend, Teddy." "Do you really think she would've forged those forms if it wasn't her last chance at getting pregnant?" "What are you talking about?" "Silver can't have any more babies, okay?" "If you do this, she'll... she'll never have kids of her own." "Hey, I get that you're mad, but if you still go through with this, what you'll do to her... is so much worse." "ADRIANNA: * It's a game you're gonna lose *" "♪ 'Cause, baby, when you look straight ♪" "♪ Into my eyes" "♪ I got you in a spell" "♪ You're hypnotized" "♪ Don't try to run away from some of your lies... ♪" "Max, what are you doing here?" " Aren't you supposed to be off finding yourself?" " Yeah." "I, uh..." "I figured out what I want to do with my life." "Liam and I were playing the Corporate Invaders game, and it was fun; it was the kind of fun that I haven't had in a year..." "I mean, not since I..." "I gave up my whole life to... to think about stocks and mergers." "Well, we both gave up things that were important to us, Max." "Yeah, but why?" "Did we have to?" "I mean..." "I mean, I used to love working, when I was in my dorm room writing code because I wanted to, not because the-the shareholders needed a product." "What... so what are you saying?" "You want to go back to Caltech?" "N... no..." "MIT has this amazing program" "I've always wanted to be a part of and... and they're willing to take me mid-semester." " MIT?" " Yeah." " That's what you figured out?" " Yeah." "That's what I was giving you all this space for?" "That is... that's the grand life plan?" "!" "How can you be mad that I want to go back to school?" "(stammers)" "You don't want to go back to school!" "You want to... you want to go back to hanging out in your dorm room!" "You want to go back to exactly the way your life was before you married me!" " That is not true." " Yes, it is." "That's why you ran off, and went and hid out at your mother's house" " because you're acting like a child, Max!" " A child?" "!" "Yes, a child!" "I'm surrounded by children!" "If I'm acting like a child, it's because you're treating me like one." "Oh, my God!" "Hey, hey, thanks for the insight, Naomi." " Maybe you can cut the crusts off my sandwiches, too." " You know what?" "I am sick and tired of thinking about what Max wants." "Massachusetts?" "What am I supposed to do there, huh?" "Plan pilgrim dinners?" "I don't want to go there with you, Max!" "I don't want to go there!" "I want to go to Tokyo, and I want to be a princess!" "(wry chuckle)" "Wow." "Wow, well..." "I guess you should go." "NAVID:" "Cronus, welcome to the Offshore!"

"Uh, we have darts, we have pool, and a serious game of backgammon, so, uh, please, make yourselves at home." "Hey." "It's a great party, right?" "It's a little overcrowded." "What are you talking about?" "There's, like, 30 people here." "We had, like, twice as many people at the Christmas party." "Oh, shoot." "I'm sorry." "Uh, I forgot that was the day you were kidnapped." "Sorry." "Hey." "Liam Court, right?" "Oh." "Um, you mind if I get a photo?" "Whoa." "Hey." "A "no, thanks" would've done it." "(sighs) I'm sorry." "I..." " Dude, are you all right?" " I'm fine." "It's this party that sucks." "I'm bored out of my mind." "Bored?" "How can you be bored?" "Got all the darts and icy drinks we could want." "Shirazi," "I thought you promised something different." "Is just another bar, except without chicks." "That's what I'm saying." "Any suggestions?" "(stammers)" "Actually, I may have an idea." "Let's go." "Dude, what are you doing?" " Yo, guys, let's go." " We don't, we don't have to leave the bar, I mean..." "Come on." "(sighs)" "Teddy, what are you doing here?" "I talked to Navid." "Look, I didn't, I didn't ask him to talk to you and I don't expect anything that he said to... change your mind." "You shouldn't." "But I can't do it." "I can't take away your only chance to have a baby." "Oh, my God." "Thank you." "Don't thank me." "If I could find a way to go through with this so I would never have to see you again, I would." "But as much as I hate you right now," "I can't be as horrible to you as you were to me." " Teddy..." " Just... just be at my lawyer's office tomorrow." "What's this?" "The absurdly large check" "I squeezed out of the pageant officials." "I figured you deserve to be the one to present it to Dixon." "Remind me to tell Dixon how amazing you are." "Do... do you know where this brings our total?" "No idea, but I'll meet you out front in ten?" "Sure." "(gasps happily)" "(sighs)" "Hi, it's Adrianna Tate-Duncan from Unfaithful Records." "I just wanted to let you guys know that I just received a check for $15,000." "What does that bring our total to?" "What?" "How is that possible?" "We just got paid for that fast food jingle." "No, thank you." "I've heard all I need to." "NAVID:" "Liam, now, what if there's an alarm?" "Then we'll run real fast." "I heard clubs like yours usually have some kind of initiation or... ends with the new guy getting his ass kicked." "Like the cloak and paddle routine?" "That's not really our thing." "Well, maybe this will be your thing." "(chuckles)" "Think anyone can take me?" "I can." "Then, let's go." "Let's make this more interesting." "I'll put a grand on Court." "I know this isn't what you meant when you said you wanted excitement." "You're right." "This is better." "Being an upstanding pillar of society gets old quick." "The guys are dying to be a little bad, and your buddy Liam has just provided us with the perfect opportunity." "All right?" "Let's go, Court!" "(cheering and applause)" "MAN:" "All right!" "Yeah, whoo-hoo-hoo!" "Who's next, huh?" " You're back." " Yep." "So, uh... how'd everything go?" "It was great, actually." "Turns out, Ade and I make kind of a good team." "Mm!" "So, uh, does that mean you're reconsidering working for me?" "Not necessary." "The financial aid office called." "A last-minute scholarship came through and I got it." "Really?" "Wow, th... that's great, babe!" "Congratulations." "Hey, I was just telling Dixon how great you were up there." "Yeah, not as good as you were." "Tricking me into thinking we were friends so I'd humiliate myself for your tuition money?" "W... what?" "Yeah, what are you talking about?" "I worked my ass off, and you used that money to set up a scholarship for your girlfriend." "I talked to the accountant." "Oh, my God." "Ade, it's not like that." "I am such an idiot." "I can't believe I trusted you again." "Starting tonight, I will do whatever it takes to get out of your contract and out of your life." "Adrianna..." "Okay, look, um, I..." "I can explain, okay?" "I..." "I was..." "I was just trying to take care of you." "Okay, y... you're happy you get to stay, right?" "I mean, the ends justify the means." "How could you do this after I told you how important it was to me to take care of myself?" "Megan, I don't want to lose you." "It's too late." "I won't take your money." "I..." "I'm turning down the scholarship and I'm going home to San Diego." "No!" "W... w... wait!" "Why?" "Why is it so hard for you to let me take care of you?" "This isn't taking care of me, Dixon!" "It's lying to get what you want." "Megan..." "(phone line ringing over speaker)" "WOMAN (over phone):" "San Jose Spinal Center." "Hi, it's Annie Wilson for Riley Wallace, please." "Hi, Annie." "It's Dr. Bronson." "We met this morning." "Is everything okay?" "Well, late this afternoon, a clot traveled to Riley's lungs." "W... what are you saying?" "Riley's okay, right?" "I..." "I was just there." "He's fine." "I'm sorry, Riley passed away." "Hey." "Hi." "You came back." "To say I'm sorry." "You're right, I, uh..." "Well, I was acting like a kid." "I shouldn't have run away to my parents' house." "I love you." "But?" "(sighs)" "But I don't know if it's enough." "(sighs)" "Therapist said I... might have lost my own identity." "Maybe she's right." "I deserve to find out what I want to do with my life." "So do you." "MIT was always your dream." "Well, we're supposed to be supporting each other's dream." "All we seem to do is hold each other back." "I'm sorry that I, I can't be the adult that you need me to be." "That's not just you, Max; it's me, too." "I've been on my own since I was 16." "I've been pretending to be an adult so long, I..." "I'm not." "I'm not an adult." "And I was mad at you for acting like a child because..." "I never got to be one." "So... what do we do now?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "Hey, um," "I got your text message telling me to come right over." "What's going on?" "He's dead." "Riley... he's dead." "(sobbing)" "CAMPBELL:" "Court, Shirazi." "Senator Bravman called in a glowing recommendation for you, for the honors business program." "You should get your acceptance any minute." " I..." "I don't even know Senator Bravman." " Sure you do." "He's one of your brothers." "Welcome to the Cronus Society, gentlemen." "♪" "Hi, I'm Erin Silver." "I'm here to sign the custody agreement." "Where's Teddy?" "Please take a seat." "Uh, Mr. Montgomery thought it best that I handle the paperwork." "Sure, of course." "I am just so grateful that he's giving me this," "I'll sign anything." "Actually, custody can't be determined until the surrogacy paperwork has been filed." "I don't understand." "Mr. Montgomery has stipulated you hire a third party to carry the child." "What?" "No, that can't be right." "I'm sorry, but my client was clear about his intentions." "No, he can't." "The whole reason that I'm going through with this is because I want to carry my own baby, not have someone else do it." "Take as long as you need." "I'll be in my office."
