" Hi, Iowa." "How now, brown cow." " Hey, Dale?" " Yeah, yeah." "How's it going, Josh?" " It's okay." "It's okay." "Look, Dale, Sylvia seems to be M.I.A." " Well, that's not very professional." " No, no, it's not." " Damn unprofessional, if you ask me." " And I agree." "Any idea where she may be?" " Now, how would I know that, Josh, hmm?" "I'm not my weather girl's keeper, right?" "Right?" " Yeah, it's just that we're on in about 25 seconds, and I know you and she are close." "So if you have any idea where she may be..." " Josh, my personal life is my business." "Are we clear on that?" "[chuckles]" "Are we?" " Sure." "Mary!" " I'm going now." "[sighs]" "Ms. Miller?" "Um, Ms. Miller, everybody's waiting, and we're on in 20 seconds." "She's not answering." "I don't really" "I got her." "[indistinct conversation]" " Jesus Christ, Sylvia." " Not cool, Syl." "Not cool." " All right, we got her." " All right, ten seconds." " Rolling at her."

" You look great this morning, Sherry." " Oh, stop it." "You're making me blush." " No, seriously." " Oh." " You look great, seriously." "Doesn't she look great?" " Come on, you." " Let's say hello to our sassy weather girl." " Mmm." " Good morning, Sylvia." " Good morning, Sylvia." " [laughs sarcastically]" " Did we lose Sylvia?" " What?" "What's going on?" " She's not talking." " The rain is sure coming down out there, Sylvia." "How long is it gonna go on like this?" " Forever, Dale." "This is Seattle." "In case you haven't noticed, the weather here sucks." " [chuckles]" " Well, I think it's romantic, Dale." " Go to camera three, please." " ..." "A stroll in the rain with your sweetheart." " Oh, God, shut up." "Shut up, shut up, you squeaky little bitch." " Whoa, whoa, whoa." "We don't call her" ""our sassy weather girl" for nothing, folks." "Let's go to a commercial." " Okay." " You know what, Dale?" "Before we do that, there is something that I would like to share with our viewing audience." " Well, I don't think that's such a great idea, Sylvia." " I don't care what you think, you arrogant prick." "In fact, why don't you just sit there and look stupid." " [laughs]" " Whatever you do, do not cut." "Do not cut." " So this is a little segment that I like to call" ""behind the scenes of Seattle Morning."" " Oh, my God." " Many of you may not know, but from the moment that I started working here, our seemingly charming cohost Dale Waters has been all over me like a cheap suit." "Day after day, as I stood in front of this stupid map repeatedly trying to find new adjectives to describe the word "rain"..." " What do I do?" " I've been fighting off the infantile and often offensive advances of that guy." "That's right, ladies." "He's grabby." " Go to Dale." " But you know, for a plethora of reasons, not the least of which being I am 35, single, and, um, yeah, occasionally lonely," "I gave in to his advances." "And we had several, you know, what could only be described as disappointing encounters." "Sorry." "But despite the amateurish sex," "I somehow developed an attachment to the walking haircut sitting in that chair." "We moved in together and began to share a boring, stagnant, passionless life." " What the hell is she doing?" "George, help me." "Cut the lighting!" " No, no, no, no." "Do not cut anything." "This is good TV." " She has lost her mind." " That is, until this morning, when after Dale had already left for the studio," "I found these." "They're not mine." " You go, Sylvia." "There's our Emmy." "This is it." " Now, these are a pair of panties that I've unfortunately witnessed my exhibitionist cohost wearing on several occasions." "How long have you been sleeping with him, Sherry?" " All right, number four to Sherry, please." " Ah, well put, Sherry." "Well, I am now leaving this stupid, meaningless job, but before I go," "I just want to say to all of you out there, for the love of God, read a newspaper." "This is not news." "This is fluff." "This is tidbits for dumb people." " [chuckles]" " [sighs]" "On that note, I will say good-bye to Seattle Morning, and I will see you all in hell." " What has she done?" " Wow." "Let's do a commercial." " Go to commercial." " Go to commercial." " [sighs]" "That was great." "That was great." "[thunder crashes] [knock at door]" " [sobbing]" " Hmm." " Hey." " I know you, right?" "Wait, I know." "Aren't you that weather girl who committed career suicide in a very unsightly way before an audience of thousands this morning?" " Oh, God." " Oh, shit." "Okay, come on." "Come on in." "It's okay." "Come on." " Oh, oh, God." "What did you do in here?" "It's" " You want me to kick his ass?" " Yes." " Really?" " No, it's-- please, no, don't kick his ass." " All right, I don't think I could anyway." "You want a drink?" " It's 9:00 in the morning." "Yes." "Oh." "God, oh, wait, can I have a bloody Mary?" " Yeah, let me whip that up for you." "I'm going to enjoy an apple Martini." "You look like shit." "Oh, that's good." " Thank you." " No, I'm serious." "You--you look like shit." "This is, like, you look really, really" "This is, like, the worst I've ever seen you look." " Okay, is this supposed to be helping me?" " Syl, I'm your brother, and I'm really very fond of you, but I cannot be okay with you being this much of a wreck over that douche bag from the morning show." " Hey, can I have, like, five minutes here?" "I'm kind of upset." " I'm trying to help." " Well, you can help by shutting up." "What's happening here?" " Okay, you know what?" "If you want to get all upset over some stupid dude who I never liked, then go nuts." " I am well aware of your opinion, thank you." " Oh, well, then I guess I don't have to say," ""I told you so"" "Because I already did, like, 50 times." "I mean, this guy's an idiot, and my big sister's a wreck because of him." "It's embarrassing." " God, you are such an idiot." "Okay, it's not just him." "It's everything." "Two years, we were together." "Okay, two years." "We--we lived together." "We bought furniture together." "We talked about kids' names." "And where am I now?" "I" "I'm 35 years old." "I have no job, no insurance, no apartment," "$1,500 in a savings account, a car that I couldn't afford payments on when I was employed, and, um, what else don't I have?" "Oh, you know what else I don't have?" "I don't have a boyfriend." " Tell me about this savings account." " I don't know what I'm doing." "What I'm going to do?" "It's like I'm starting all over again." "Oh, my God." "I have to start all over again." "Oh, God, I'm such an idiot." "Why didn't I stick around?" "I could have hung around and gotten a job" "Or looked for an apartment or something." " Yeah, that's a great idea." "Just hang out and pretend that you don't know" "Dale's doing his cohost, a much better option." " I'm just trying to be rational." " God, you're so full of shit." "Let me just share with you one of your qualities." "All right?" "You couldn't be rational at the cost of your pride for anything." "You did just what you should have done and also conveniently what you had to do because of your love of conflict." " I don't love conflict." " It's your crack." "Now, shut up." "You're going to stay here." "You're going to get a job," "And everything's going to be okay, okay?" " You think so?" " Yeah, why not?" " Okay." " Well, I think we should cut his balls off." " Can you say that any louder?" " Oh, I'm sorry." "Am I embarrassing you?" "I was trying to be supportive of my friend." " Are you saying I'm not?" " I'm saying that maybe making passive-aggressive comments" "And trying to undermine me like you always do is not the best way to help Sylvia." " I undermine you?" "When have I ever undermine" " I don't know why I'm here." "I don't feel like being out tonight." "Why did I go out tonight?" "I should be at home." "I should be at home, sitting on the Couch, eating ice cream, and watching old movies or something." " What you need is a cocktail and your girlfriends." " Yes." " Hey, weather girl." " Hi." " Dale is such an asshole." "You go, girl." " Who says, "you go, girl"?" " Okay, yeah, no, I need another drink." " Honey, let me tell you something." "I am so proud of what you did today." " Yeah, me too." " You did exactly what I would have done." " Me too." " Gave it to him in front of everyone." " And the bitch." " The mousy bitch." " There is no way that frail little bitch is good in bed." "No way." " Well, thanks, you guys." "You know, I didn't plan it." "It just sort of-- blah, happened." " So what are you going to do now, love?" " Uh, send out my resume, I guess." " Oh, a weather girl resume?" "What?" "She's a weather girl." " I'm a broadcast journalist, Jane." " Jesus, Jane, she's a broadcast journalist." "What is wrong with you?" " I made a mistake." " Look, there are four other local news stations with morning, afternoon," "And nighttime news programs, right?" "So there's got to be something out there, I think." " Mm." " Mm-hmm." " Oh, incoming." " Hi." " Hi." " Excuse me for interrupting." "My friends and I over there, we had a bet." "Are you that chick that totally lost her shit on that news guy?" "[bottle fizzes]" " [gasps]" "Jesus Christ." " No, Byron, actually." " Who are you?" " I'm Byron." " And why are you here?" " I'm a friend of Walt's." " What?" "Wha-wha-what is that?" " Oh, that's you, actually." " What am I... what am I doing on the computer?" " Uh, you're freaking out." "Here, it's actually my favorite part." " But despite the amateurish sex," "I somehow developed an attachment to the walking haircut sitting in that chair." " [chuckles]" "I'm sorry." "I love it when you call him a haircut." "I don't know why." " Why--why am I on there?" " You're everywhere." "You're on a bunch of film sites." "I mean, just alone today" "I've gotten ten emails from people, and only one of them was from Walt." " Wait, Walt sent this to you?" " Yeah, Walt and others." "[door clicks open]" "Hey, Walt." " Hey." " Hey, Walt." " Hey." "What?" "I didn't do anything." "Hey!" "Ow!" "What" " Get in there." " What are you--why are you tugging on me?" " I am on the internet." " Well, yeah." "It was a pretty funny breakdown." "People like seeing others lose it." " I did not lose it." " Okay." " And who is this person?" " Byron." " Byron, okay, well," "I don't think that Byron should be here right now." "I'm kind of in a delicate state." "[knocking at door]" "Oh, my God." " Yo." "Hey, uh, you brought the beer in here?" " Oh, shit, sorry." "Look, I don't get it." "You just went out with all your friends." "Now you're all too distraught for visitors?" " Excuse me." "Hi, we are kind of in the middle of something here." "A little private, so..." " Did you really sleep with that Dale guy?" "I mean, why would you do that?" " I know, right?" " You're way too hot for him." " Who is this person?" " Byron." "What...?" " Byron." "It's just an opinion." "Um, do you guys want this door closed?" "Okay." " Thank you." " Yeah" " Really?" " Okay, look, I know you've had a rough day." "I'm sorry, but stop being a bitch, okay?" "This is my place, and that's my friend, and we're going to hang out and play some music." "You want to hang out?" "Rad." "You don't, there's a coffee shop down the street." "My house, my rules, Missy." " I cannot believe how callous you're being." " [sighs]" "Yes, you can." "Oh." "There it is." "[guitar twanging]" "Good." " Oh, listen to that one." "Ooh." "Both: [wailing]" " High "C." high "C!"" "High "C."" "Middle "C" - middle "C."" " High "C.""

"What are you doing?" " I'm trying to sleep." " No, I'm sleeping in here." "You're sleeping on the couch." " Are you out of your mind?" "This is my bed." " Well, I'm not sleeping in here with you." " Why not?" " Because it's gross." "Because you're my brother." "And I don't want you rolling over here in the middle of the night and touching me." "It's disturbing." " Oh, well, I'm sorry you find me so repulsive." "There's a sleeping bag in the closet." " Listen to me." "I've had a really, really shitty day, okay?" "And I haven't been sleeping at all because you and creepy have been playing in your little band" " Jamming!" " Oh, my God, okay." "Jamming." " Whoa, no, don't--don't--don't" "Don't condescend to me, Syl." "Don't call it "a little band."" " Why are you being such a dick?" "I just want to get some sleep." " Oh, my God, I'm not sleeping on the couch 'cause you don't want to share the bed with me." " Fine, I'm gonna sleep on the couch." " Fine by me." " Fine." " Oh, what?" "No, no." "Not cool." "No." "Ah, you asshole." " I'll take that." " Ow!" "[car horns honking]" " Oh, God." "Oh!" "God!" "[groans]" " Wow." " Ooh?" " You couldn't do that again in a million years." " Ow, ow, ow." " Ouch, ow." "Yeah, that smarts when you hit your knee like that." " Don't you have a home?" " Yeah, I live across the hall." " Don't you sleep?" " Not much." " Okay, why are you here?" " I build websites." "My computer is busted." "So I told Walt that if he let me use his," "I'll give him a cut of the profits." "It's kind of a win-win situation." "Brought you a coffee." " Well, do you have to be here all the time?" " Yeah, I have a strong work ethic." "It's a vanilla latte." "You strike me like a vanilla latte type." " Aren't you insightful." "Thank you." " So do you want to go out with me sometime?" " [coughs] Sorry." " Too soon?" " Um, yes." "Um, yeah, I've been single for 26 hours." "So it's a little bit too soon." " Well, the offer is on the table." " Okay." " So what's next for you?" " What do you mean?" " What do I mean?" "I mean, are you gonna get another job?" "You know, a TV job or something else, and what about a place?" "I mean, are you gonna find your own place eventually?" "'Cause let's face it." "Your brother's great, but he's a little bit messy." "How long can you live with him, right?" "And then, what about your stuff?" "You got all that stuff at your ex-boyfriend's place." "The haircut, I mean, you gonna let him keep it?" "What are you gonna do with it?" "You gonna move it into storage, or are you gonna move it in here?" "Although, I have no idea where you'd put it." "It's pretty crammed." "And then you've got your wardrobe, got these power suit weather girl things." "You're gonna need to probably do something about that" " Okay, you have to stop talking." "You're making my head hurt." " You haven't thought about this stuff." " No, I haven't thought about this stuff." "So I don't need you talking about all the things that I haven't thought about because I haven't thought about them yet." " I'm sorry." " I just woke up here." " I know." " And you're freaking me out." " Didn't mean to." " Well, you did." " You know, you're really attractive when you get all riled up." " Will you stop flirting with me?" " Okay, but you might want to put some pants on, because I can't be held responsible for what I'm saying when you're not wearing any pants." "It's just distracting." " God." " The kneesocks, though, I love it." " Okay." "Situation:" "Not good." "You need to fix this immediately." "You are a smart, capable woman." "And what you need-- oh, you know what you need?" "You need to make a list." "You need to make a list of priorities on how to get your life together." "You can do this." "You are strong." "You need something to write on." "Okay, I need some post-it notes." "What?" "What?" "What are you looking at?" "Do I have something on my face?" " Sis, are you familiar with a device called a DVR?" " This isn't a good idea." " What do you mean, like, TiVO?" " TiVO." " I would back off." "She's fragile." " We can digitally record a program" "And then watch it at our convenience." "Now, I've done exactly that with today's Seattle Morning." " Why?" " Fallout." " We thought there might be some fallout." " Yeah, I know." " You may want to sit down here." " Oh, my God." " Byron." " No, no-no-no." "I don't want to do it." " You must." " Go, Byron, go." " And now I feel we owe our viewers an apology." " Well, I think you're right, Dale." " Yesterday, one of our Seattle Morning team members had a bit of a, well," "I guess you could call it an episode." " An episode." "She did." " Oh, I don't like her at all." " She made a spectacle of herself." "She talked about things that are a bit of a no-no on morning television, and she used some terrible language." " Well, we have kids watching." " It's a morning show." "Families watch us." "They trust us." "We let them down." " We sure did." " Oh, stop it." " Sorry." " She also made some pretty terrible accusations against you, Dale." " Ah, yeah, she did." "She did." "It's true, but I can take care of myself." "Those kids out there, they can't take care of themselves yet, and that's where we failed them." " Oh, my God." " I'm not going to sit here and defend myself, my manhood, against someone who..." " And here he goes." " To say the least, is frankly unstable." " I would say that." "I would say that." "Well, you know what?" "I think that I speak for all of Seattle Morning" "When I say, good for you, Dale." "Good for you." " Thanks, Sherry." "You out there, our friends, our neighbors, we're sorry, Seattle." "We hope that we haven't lost your trust." " Oh, Seattle." " The end." "[jazzy percussive music]" "# #" " Think he's home?"

"What are you doing here?" " What is she doing here?" " Oh, you guys are already napping together." "That is so precious." " Hi, asshole." " Wow, this is a great apartment." " Oh, it's not an apartment." "It's a condo." " Oh, my God." "They're gonna kill us." " Yeah, that's right." "We're all part of an elite hit squad." " I'm Walt, Sylvia's brother." "Remember me?"

"The least you could do is talk to me for a minute." " Go ahead, you guys." "Go." "Go." " All right." "[grunts]" "On the knees." " What?" " This is not all my fault." " Oh, please." " No, "oh, please" you, Sylvia." ""oh, please" you." "Okay." "I made love to another woman." "I broke the rules." "Sorry." "But you pushed me to it." " I pushed you to it?" "How did-- how did I do that?" " You never loved me." "You never let me in." "You never respected me."

"You're cold," "Sylvia." "You are cold." "And that's why I did what I did." " Said he only slept with her because I didn't love him, and he said that I was cold." "Can you believe that?" "Guys?" "I mean, isn't that the craziest thing you've ever heard?" "That I'm cold?" " Well..." " Oh, my God." " You do sometimes have a little trouble letting people in." " I never thought you really loved him." " Oh, my God." "Me neither." " I don't think she's been in love since I've known her." " What about the lawyer?" " You mean the one she just stopped calling?" " Oh, right." " That guy was the most boring guy on the planet." " But he was a lawyer." "You could have given him a chance." " I don't believe this." "Are you telling me that I'm cold?"

"I just broke up with Dale, like, yesterday." " Okay, perhaps you think you have nothing but time." " You don't." " You don't, Sylvia." "You're in your late 30s." " Mid 30s." " You have a tiny window remaining." " Charles is an accountant." "He's stable." "He's not gay, and he's not not attractive." " Not not attractive." " This is your future you're playing with." " Yes, also a perfect opportunity to warm up that cold shoulder." " It wouldn't hurt if Dale heard you were dating." " No, wouldn't hurt at all." "Look, if you want to spend your few remaining moments as an attractive middle-aged woman being picky, go ahead." " Middle-aged?" "We are the same age." " Yeah, and I'm married, and Jane's in a serious relationship with a future." "And we both have careers and IRA accounts and our own apartments." " And I'm actually only 34." " Okay, look, all I'm saying is that we're in the major leagues, and you just got knocked back to the minors." " Is that a sports reference?" " I know, right?" "I just came up with that."

"You show up without that wine key and less than five pens, and I will send you home." "Of this you can be sure." "Simpatico?" " Yes." " Atta girl." " Hmm." " You get me some more coffee." " Hey." " Hey." "She here?" " Bathroom." "Listen, can I be a Dick?" "Kind of get into your business for a second?" " You don't know anything about brothers and sisters, Byron." " Okay, yes, granted, I am an only child." "I know nothing." " Exactly." " But as an only child," "I've always kind of envied this whole sibling thing that you have going on, you know?" "This whole sister thing's kind of cool." "She-- it's this whole other person that kind of knows everything about you." "She's been there for all of these really important moments in your life, these rearing moments." "And you know, I think that it's a pretty important relationship that" " Byron." " Okay, listen," "I'm not questioning your love for your sister here at all, okay?" "I'm in absolute reverence of it, but the fact is, she's a girl." "No, she's a girl that just got dumped, okay?" "Maybe cut her a little slack." " Shut up, dude." " Fair enough." " I think Byron's got a thing for you." " Yeah, I know." "He told me." " What are you, uh," "What are you all done up for?" " Well, I have a date." "I got a job today," "And you know, I thought I'd treat myself." " Treat yourself?" "Who are you going to treat yourself with?" " You're gonna make Byron jealous." "[knocking at door]" " Go." " Byron!" " Right now." "Right now." " Oh, I got her." " Oh, God, Walt!" "Ow!" " Yes?" " Uh, is Sylvia here?" " Sylvia?" "Hmm." "And who can I tell her is calling?" " Charles." " Ow." "Ow." "Ow." " Charles, you sure?" " Get off of me." " Sylvia, Charles is here." " Charles is here!" "Charles!" "I am Walt, Sylvia's brother and guardian." "I have heard so much about you." " She just raves on and on." " We hear you are quite the lover." " Top drawer, old man." "Top drawer." " Stop it." "Hi, Charles, sorry." "I'm Sylvia." "Nice to meet you." "Pay no attention to the morons in the doorway." "[sighing]" " It's, uh, nice to meet you too, Sylvia." "Wow, you are just as beautiful as you are on TV." " Mm, isn't she just?" " Just an image of loveliness." " Let's go." " Hey, don't you get fresh with her, now." "No means no, suit man." " Who was that guy?" " Hmm." "Fire escape?" " Fire escape." " I'm so sorry about them up there." " Oh, that's okay." "Men like to bust each others' balls on occasion, but you know, I can dish it out myself." " Oh, I bet." " So this is me." "She's a beauty, isn't she?" " Charles, can I just say nice ride?" "Classy yet understated." " What's the gas mileage on something like that?" "I'm just curious because you know that we do have a responsibility to the planet." " You know what?" "You know what?" "Cut him some slack, Byron." "That thing's a pussy magnet, am I right, huh?" " Can we go, please?" " Charles, buddy, am I right?" "Those seats have seen a little action." " He's being coy." "Come on." " Oh, there it is." " All right." " Who let the dog out?" " "who let the dog out"?" " So is it weird to be a celebrity?" " Oh, I'm not really a celebrity." " You totally are." "I mean, look, it's like everyone here is staring at us." "We're just, you know..." "Gives me goose pimples." " Okay." " So what would you like to do next?" "Talk show?" "Talk show." "I bet you would be great in that." "Um, uh, like the, uh, like the--the Sally Jessy but--but you know, hot." "[laughter]" " I don't know." "You know, I'm sort of exploring my options right now, I guess." " Can I be honest with you about something?" " Sure." " Emily told me about your walls." " M-m-my walls?" "What?" " The walls built around this." "Right here." "Well, well, guess what?" "Guess what, kid?" "I've got them too." "And they are tall and, you know, made of stone." "But, uh, since I met you, Sylvia," "You have torn down my walls." " Oh." "[stammers]" "I didn't mean to." " You know, and I think" "I see that yours are tumbling as well." "Am I right?" "Okay, okay, okay." "Let's just--let's just get down to business, Sylvia." "I want to fast-track this thing." "I want a family:" "A wife, two kids, a boy and a girl," "Lucius and Ariel." "I want to sell my townhouse and get a real home, a home with a woman's touch." " Okay, now you're just scaring me." " Yeah, that's-- that's what I'm saying." "I'm saying, you know, the future is scary." "But not if you've got someone to hold." "Okay, what I need is someone to complement me." "I want my friends to look at my girl and say, "Whoa, look at that hot babe with the 'C' man."" "Yeah, you know?" " Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know," "I think we might be looking for different things, Charles." " [chuckles]" "Let's not be coy here." "Neither one of us are kids." "I know what I want, and I'm putting it out there." "Do you know what you want?" " Hey." " [gasps]" "Jesus." "Again?" " Sorry." "Good date?" " [sighs]" "Well, yeah, he did propose." "He's also probably the creepiest person on the planet, so..." " That's so weird." "I mean, it seemed like you guys were such a good match." "So did the two of you do it?" " [giggles]" "No." "All right, I am going to bed." " I don't get it." " Get what?" " I mean, I just don't get how you could go out on some dumb date with some dumb guy when it's so clear that I have a thing for you." "I mean, if you want to, you know, get married or move in with someone then you're probably barking up the wrong tree, but I do think I'm a pretty good rebound guy." " Mm, and you are offering your services to me." " Yeah, something like that." "But I just think that I am exactly what you need at this crossroads in your life." " Do you?" "Wow, you're really fond of yourself, aren't you?" " Oh, come on." "Give me a break." "You're in love with yourself." "You think you might be," "Like, the most awesome person ever." " Okay, how old are you?" " 30." "Next year." " Hmm, okay, well," "Let me tell you something, 30 next year." "You don't know me." "You don't know anything about me, and you certainly don't know what I need in my life." " Mm-hmm." "You know what I like about you best?" " I don't care." " You're difficult." " Oh." " And you're very sexy but in this foreign film kind of way with the angles and the attitude." "I dig it." " [sighs]" "Go home, Byron." "[door clatters open]" "You know, you don't not have a point." " Everybody needs a rebound guy." " I mean, you know, why do I need to audition men for it when I know exactly what I need?" " That is exactly my point." " Somebody who's uncomplicated, convenient, totally wrong for me, and somebody who I could never in, like, a million years have any real feelings for." " Except for the ravenous animal attraction." " No obligations." "No complications." "No expectations." " That's pretty much how I live my life." "So..." " Okay, um, raise your right hand." " Raise?" "Okay." " Okay, repeat after me." "I, Byron..." " Oh, wow, you don't even know my last name?" "Okay, that's great." " I, Byron, promise to never fall in love with Sylvia, no matter how awesome she may be." " I, Byron, promise that if one of us breaks this deal, it's not gonna be me." " Oh, it's not gonna be me." " Yes, it is." " No, it's not." " Yep." " Okay, you gonna kiss me, or you gonna be clever?" " I'm going to kiss you." " Okay, soon, you think?" " I'm just building the tension" " Oh, my God." " # let's have some fun # # you can make, make, make, make # [metal crashes]" " Wow, okay." "[objects crashing]" "Wait, hold on, okay." "[loud crashing] [sighing]" "Okay, there's-- whoa, uh." " Oh." " Hmm." " Oh, no." " That looks really uncomfortable." " We can go back in there." " Okay." " Let me take this off." "[cabinet thuds] [objects clattering]" "When did I start wanting you?" " My guess is that you probably always wanted me and that you just forgot." " I don't really think so." " It's just at theory, really." "Yeah, there." "Unbutton, unbutton." " I can't." "Help me." " There." " Oh, wait." "Wait, wait, wait." " Wait, what?" " Don't tell Walt, okay?" " What?" " Oh, seriously, that's another condition." "You can't tell Walt." " What are you talking about?" "You want me to lie to my best friend?" "I can't, no, come on." " What?" "No, I'm lying to my brother." " Totally, totally not the same thing at all." "No, no, I'm sorry." "I can't do that." "I'm sorry." " Okay." " What?" " Okay." "That's a shame." " Yeah." "This could have been fun." " Could have." " Probably would have been." " I think so, yeah." " [sighs]" "Well, uh, I hope things don't get weird after this." " Well, nothing happened, so..." " Yeah, I'm sure." "Yeah, except that, but whatever." " Yeah." " Yeah, sweet dreams." " Okay." " Not telling him isn't necessarily lying." " It's like an omission." " Totally different thing." " Totally different." " Come here." " # dit, dit, ditty now hit and run # # you can dit, dit, ditty until I'm done # # come along dit, ditty # # till the boy's a broken thing #" " Oh, my God." "Okay, you two ready?" " Yeah." " I think I'll have the" " It's you." "Arthur, it's her." " Her who?" " Her, sassy weather girl, right?" "It's you, isn't it?" "Sylvia, what is it?" "Velasquez?" " Uh, no." "My name is Margot." " Ah." "Name tag says, "Sylvia."" "[laughter]" " You are so busted." " Sorry." "Oh, this is what you're doing now, huh?" "That is really sad." " So what can I get you folks?" " You couldn't get a job anywhere else?" " Well, it's not like there aren't a million people who can read the weather section and then ramble on about it on some morning show." " Arthur." " I mean, come on." "It's not exactly hard-hitting journalism or anything." " Well..." "Sorry." " Damn it." " I am so sorry." " You did that on purpose." " Oh, no, I did not do that on" "I am hurt by that accusation." " No, you're sassy." "Duh, everybody says so, and that was a very sassy thing for you to do." " You know, why don't I just get you guys a new server?" " Yeah, why don't you?" " Great, sassy." "Unbelievable." " Oh, smoking." " Oh." " Oh, whatever." "Do over." "Do over." " Advantage, Byron." " It's just-- it's a flick of the wrist." " Down in front." " It's a flick of the wrist, and it's just" " Oh, it's a save." " See that's-- and that's what happens." " You know what?" " That's what happens when you don't practice." "That's what happens when you don't practice." " Point." " Serve." " Serve it." " Oh, just lob it up there for me." " Just shove it down your throat." " A little side..."

" No, hombre, necesita un hombre como yo." " Para eso me tiene a mi." "¿verdad, mi amor?" "Va a ser mio ese culi" " Okay, give me my soup." " Ay, quiere su sopa..." "Cremosa, cremosa." " Oh, my God." "[laughter]" "The kitchen staff hates me." " Of course they do." " I'm sure they don't hate you." " They probably do." " They talk dirty to me in Spanish." " Oh, yeah?" "Is it hot?" "Wait, no." "I don't want to know." " But don't you speak Spanish?" " I don't want them to know that." " Why not?" " 'cause then they'll want to talk all the time." " No." "Yeah." " Snob." " I am a snob." " No." "You're a work in progress." " Think I can be a secret agent?" "BOTH:" "No." " Yeah." " Sorry." "Hey, guys, table 12's still waiting on their chicken." " Aqui tengo tu pollo, guerita."

"Walt's coming home in a half hour." " [scoffs]" "Have you noticed how much sex we're having?" " Is that a problem?" " No, of course not." "I love sex." "I'm glad that you love sex as much as I love sex because I, certainly, I do." "I love sex." " Well, let's look at it objectively." "I have a shitty job." "Mooch off my brother." "I have no place to call my own." "Pretty much, my life sucks." "So sex is the only thing I have to look forward to." "It's pretty much the only thing good in my life." " Wow." " Yeah, right?" "Too bad it's with an emotionally unavailable, financially devoid, Peter pan syndrome, rock star wannabe 12-year-old." " Ouch." " Yeah, but the sex is really good." " That is true." "[keys jingling]" " Oh, what the fuck!" "[screams] oh, fuck!" "What?" "Oh!" "Fuck!" "That's my sister, man!" "Come on, what the hell are you" "Oh, oh, come on." "That's my--I'm fucking blind."

"Fuck!" "So how long has this been going on?" " A while." " Not long." " I see." "And you didn't feel this was pertinent information to share?" " What I do is none of your business, Walt." " Interesting." "Because that was my bed that you were fornicating on, and that was my friend with which you were fornicating." "Huh." " Look, Walt." "I am sorry that I didn't tell you, man." "I'm sorry." " I am so not even talking to you yet." "Look, Byron's my friend, and now the only reason he comes over here is to see you." " That is not true." " Hey, the big kids are talking." "I don't know if you've noticed, but I don't really have an abundance of friends." "All right, so if you fuck up my only friendship," "I'm going to be pissed." " No friendships are getting ruined, okay?" "It's not like that." " And you, what exactly are your intentions toward my sister?" "'cause if you haven't noticed, she's kind of in a vulnerable place." " Oh, my God, Walt." " Okay, my intentions are honorable." " There are no intentions." "We're just messing around." "There is no commitment, no emotions."

" Well, you know, I still have to do my side work and stuff, and I'm kind of tired." " Oh, yeah, no." "I'm sorry." "Side work, of course." "Okay, in that case, then I'm going to start with the cheese sticks." "I hear they're really great here." "And then maybe just a Filet Mignon, no onions, well-done."

"You got the--you're still cute." "You got the pigtails." " What about Walt?" "He's the mean one." " No, Walt I have trouble imagining as a kid." " Okay, he was really, really ugly, and he had this huge head." "It was like-- he looked like a Walt puppet." " Well, I mean, he still has a pretty big head." "You're going to need to show me pictures of that, though." " No, no pictures." " Oh, come on." "You can't tease me with the big head and then not give me any evidence." "You call your mom right now, and you tell her to send pictures down." "I need evidence of big head stat." " Okay, so, uh... this is one of those things where I'm going to say something and you're going to feel like an asshole, but don't feel like an asshole, okay?" " Okay." "No promises." " My mom's dead." " I am an asshole." " No, you're not." "Well, you know, it was cancer." "I was 14." " Listen, I am so sorry." " No, that's okay." "I've had a lot of time to get used to it." "It's fine." " Wait, so your dad raised you?" " No, no." "My dad was a son of a bitch." "He didn't raise anybody." "He just sort of sat around on the couch drinking and cashing unemployment checks." "No, so Walt and I pretty much raised ourselves." " Huh." " Yeah, weird, huh?" "So what, is that the," ""Huh, now I know why she's so screwed up?" ""Deadbeat dad, dead mother."

" I'm sorry." "I'm just having a hard time with the logic here." " They are offering me a raise, and I get to coanchor." "You know what that means, Walt?" "It means I get to deliver the news." "Real news, not just the weather." "I mean, you know, I still have to do the weather, but I get to do other stuff too now." " All of that for the rock-bottom price of your soul." " Would you stop being so dramatic?" " Will you stop being such a sellout?" " Walt." " Sylvia, they fired you with prejudice." " They did not fire me." "I quit." " Oh." " Look, this is a real job, one where I never have to touch dirty dishes or leftover food again." "And if I take it, there's a signing bonus, which means I get to find my own place immediately and pay you back all the money I owe you." " I don't want your dirty money." "I want you to have some goddamn self-respect." " God, you are so self-important." " Think about what you're doing." " I want a life, Walt, okay?" "I am a 35-year-old woman, and I'm living like a college freshman." "I have no money." "I am waiting tables." "I have a roommate." "And I am sleeping with the guy across the hall." "Don't you talk to me about self-respect, Walt." "I'm doing this because I deserve better." " Oh, is that why you're going on a date with the guy who cheated on you and broke your heart?" " It is not a date." "It is a business dinner with a colleague." " Shut up!" " And I think "broke your heart"" "is overdoing it a bit, don't you think?" " You know what?" "I'm just going to say this, and then I'm walking." " Oh, I highly doubt that." " Oh, I'm walking just as soon as I say this one thing." "You ready?" " What?" " You ready?" " What?" " Mom would be really disappointed in you." "That's right." "I invoked Mom." " Mom would be really disappointed in me?" "Is that what you said?" " Yeah, that's what I said." " Oh." "Well, that's interesting, Walt," "Considering that Mom worked until she could barely stand up from the pain while our father sat on the couch all day doing nothing but pass judgments." "Wait a minute." "Who else does that, Walt?" "Let me think--uh-oh." "You know who else does that?" "You do that, Walt." "So while I may be a huge disappointment to our mother," "I take solace in the fact that wherever that son of a bitch is, he is probably really proud of the fine young man you've become." " [scoffs]" "Okay." "Okay." "You do whatever you want to do, Sylvia." "[glass shatters]" " Shit." " Hey." " Hey." " I just talked to Walt." "Are you okay?" " Yeah." "No, I'm fine, thanks." "It's just, you know." "You know me and Walt." "We're always bickering." " Yeah, that didn't sound like bickering." " Um, well, I'm kind of running late, so..." " Right, so you're going back to the morning show?" " Considering it." " And the guy?" "You're, uh, you're gonna go out with him?" " Mm-hmm." " The haircut?" " Yeah, I--can we talk about this later, please?" " Yeah, well, you will have already gone out with him later, so that talk will be moot." " Byron, don't act like this, okay?" " Act like this?" "Act like what?" "I'm not acting." "You're acting." "I'm just reacting here." " We had a deal, remember?" "We--no emotions." "No commitment, right?" "We're just-- we've been having fun." " Yeah, I remember the deal." "You don't have to tell me what the deal is 'cause I remember it, so..." " So what's the problem?" " It's not a problem." "The problem is that that deal was made, like, forever ago." "Right?" "I mean, this was before we knew each other and before we spent all this time together, and--and--and we liked each other, and we had fun, and--and it was before" "I picked you that stupid flower off the table." "Hey, hey." "We have a good thing here." "I like you." "I don't want you to see anybody else." "I just--I thought that we had kind of moved past the deal." " Well, um..." "I haven't felt that-- I haven't felt that way." " Oh, uh, well..." "That's different." " Look, Byron, listen, I..." " No, um, I was mistaken." "[laughs]" "Um, God, I just" "I feel so not cool right now." "I should go." " Listen to me." "Byron, I--look, I like you a lot." "I do." "I just" "We're too different, you know?" "And I need to be with a grown-up." " Right." "Somebody not me." "That's okay." "But I think that we should stop talking now." "Good luck on your date, though." " Sylvia?" " Yeah?" " Oh, God, hi, sorry." "Yes, please." "[wine splashes]" "Thank you." " Where are you?" " I'm here." "I just, you know, I have a lot on my mind." "That's all." " Yeah, I'll bet." "I'll bet you're overwhelmed." "I know certainly am." " Is that right?" " Feel like I've been given a second chance at happiness." " Wow, forgive me if I don't swoon." " [chuckles]" "I'm serious." "I'm very serious." "Sherry-- Sherry taught me something." "She brought perspective." "Sherry's, um, she's just a girl." "You're a woman." "And you're the one for me." " Well, I'm glad dating a psychotic, obsessive, self-loathing alcoholic made you appreciate what we had." " Listen, I know this, okay?" "I'm a fool." "But I'm trying to make it right." " Wait, no." "Oh, God, what am I doing?" " You're right." "You're right." "Let's take it slow." "I'll be here when you're ready." "I'm not going to screw it up this time." " She took the job." "Got a big bonus."

"I mean, just 'cause you're a complete idiot," "I don't know why I have to be." " Great, my brother's trying to pick a fight with me moments before I go on live television."

"What are you doing here, huh?" "What?" "Why did you take this job back?" "Why are you letting the guy who cheated on you kiss your head?" " God, stop it." "Don't even try to be the moral authority with me, Walt." "I know you." " And I know you." " Sylvia, you're on in two minutes." " Okay." " Look, you know, if you really wanted Dale the asshole, you wouldn't be feeling so Gross about all this." " God, this is my life here, Walt." " Come on." "That's why I'm here, Syl." " Sylvia, I'm sorry." "We really need you." " You know what?" "Just mind your business, all right?" "Look, I love you," "And I'm trying to stop you from making a huge mistake here." "You're not this girl, okay?" "You don't get bought off to return to a job that you never liked." "You don't go back with the guy who cheated on you, and you don't let the one guy you ever really cared about get away because he's not rich enough." "That's not you." "That's-- that's sassy weather girl." "I hate her, and--and so do you." "And hey, I'm" "I'm sorry I said that thing about Mom." "You know, it's-- it's not true." " No, I know."

" Getting ready to do countdown." " Four, three" " Remember, don't step on me." "[laughs]" "Good morning, Seattle." "I am so glad you tuned in today, because we have a very, very special show." "Today we welcome back a member of our Seattle Morning family and someone very special to me." "And even though I'm probably in for it, we are so glad to have you back, Sylvia." "Go ahead, Sylvia." "Come on." "Hit me with that acidic tongue of yours." "I can take it." "What?" "Cat got your tongue?" "[meows]" "Boy, that's a first." "Okay, look, why don't we take a break." "We'll go to commercial, come right back, and we'll be right here" " You know, Dale, returning to Seattle Morning is rather bittersweet." " Really?" " Really, Dale." "I mean, on the one hand," "I get to return to a demeaning position where my job is to giggle and look attractive and trivialize the day's news." "On the other hand," "I get to sit next to a self-important prick who believes himself to be God's gift to women." "I'm referring to you, Dale." " I figured." " Okay, I just want to be clear." "So let me just set you and the station and our viewing audience straight on a few things." "First of all, my title, "sassy weather girl,"" "is inaccurate." "I am not a girl." "I am a woman." "And I really hate the word "sassy."" "It's stupid." " Uh, go in tight on Dale." " I mean, yes, I have an attitude, but wouldn't you, if you had to listen to Dale Waters all day?" " Whoa, whoa, whoa." "We have a real responsibility to deliver the news here" " Shut up, Dale." "I am not finished." "You know, there was a time not too long ago where you sat here and apologized for me and my behavior." "And now it's my turn." " Go in tighter." " I am sorry," "Not for freaking out then and not for freaking out now, but for selling out, for coming back here, for even considering dating this horribly inadequate man." "When I--when I got the offer to come back here," "I compromised all of my ideals, and I left behind the only people who stood by me." "These friends were honest with me and wanted what I should have:" "To be better than I was." "They saw me as more than just a sassy weather girl, and I blew them off," "And I rationalized it all, and I am ashamed of myself, and I'm sorry." "Dale, you were right." "I never loved you." "I mean, I loved the idea of you, but the truth is, we have nothing in common." " Well, that was subtle." " Well, that's how I roll." " Some would describe it as sassy." " Okay, no, it's-- no." " Like, I'm-- I'm proud of you, you know?" " Thank you." " And you can crash with me again, you know, now that you're unemployed again." " Yes, that would be good." "I have a huge signing bonus to repay." "I could use a place to stay for a while." " Great." "You know, you couldn't possibly ruin my social life any more than you already have, so..." " You're a good brother." " I'm just trying to stop you from ruining the family name." " Could you have one serious moment?" " No." " Okay." " Okay." " Hey." " Hey." "Um, hi." "Hey, Walt." " Hey, Byron." " Okay, uh, Sylvia," "I really need to talk to you, and it's kind of important and potentially very embarrassing for me, so..." " Hey, I'll just wait outside, then." " Good." "Thank you." " Cool." " Hi." " Hi, um..." "I've been thinking a lot, okay?" "I've been thinking a lot about you and me, and I'm thinking that I just need to come out and tell you how I feel about" " I'm sorry." "I was such an idiot." "Look, the truth is," "I really, really, really like you." "I didn't mean to, but I do." "And you mean more to me than a rich guy or a grown-up guy or a guy with a job" " I have a job." " No, I know you do." "And that's not" "The point is, I" "You mean more to me than all of those things." "I think that, um..." "No, I do." "I love you, okay?" "I love you." "What do you think?" " You--you fully just stole my moment." " What?" " No, I'm serious." "I was ready to come down here and throw all my chips on the table, you know?" "Prepare to go down in flames, and then you go ahead, and you steal the whole thing." "You make that cool-- cool little speech, and then I'm left standing here like an asshole." " Well, you could make a speech if you want." " And follow that?" "That was a great speech." "I can't follow that." " Sorry." " It's okay." " So what do you think?" " I kind of feel the, um" "I love you too." " You do?" " You know I do." "Now, look, I am going to grab you, and I am going to kiss you." " Okay." " Okay?" "And I am going to take the lead, and you are gonna let me." "Here it comes." "All right." " You can do that now." " Okay." " In all, 15 peoples died in that horrible crash." "And I'm sure everyone here thinks that" "That that is terrible." "I mean, I'll keep a thought in my heart for, uh, those poor people-- family." " What a prick." "Go to commercial."
