"Previously on "Awkward"..." "If you don't have a plan to get this debt taken care of, you're not going back to NYU." "So what are you guys celebrating?" "I am moving in with Luke for the rest of the summer." "You said you wanted the world to know." "Not like this." "Luke!" "A moment?" "If you're happy with the work that I'm doing, then that's one thing..." "Publicly declaring my love for Luke was supposed to be an epic gesture, but had somehow turned into an epic fail." "And now he was in Lizzy's office running damage control." "He'd been in there for 26 minutes." "How much damage was there to control anyway?" "I had to wonder if there was more to Luke's relationship with Lizzy than he had told me." "You shouldn't have written that article without consulting me, Jenna." "It was a violation of trust." " And now Lizzy's really upset." " Yeah." "A little too upset, if you ask me." "What is she, jealous?" "She thinks I've been lying and secretive." "Well, you have been lying and secretive." "You have no idea how hard it's gonna be for me to smooth things over with her." "How do you plan to do that?" " Sleep with her?" " Grow up, Jenna." "I need some air." "Grow up?" " Grow up?" " You're acting like a child." "I am not, jerk!" "Lookit." "You're just pissed because Lizzy has a thing for you, and you wanted her to think that she's got a shot so that you can stay teacher's pet." "If that's what you think of me," " what are you even doing with me?" " Honestly, I don't even know." "I'm leaving." " So go!" " I am!" "But I know you need the car later." "So I am leaving as soon as the bus gets here. [door opens]" "Morning, beeyotch!" "I brought you a $5 cup of coffee in case you were homesick for New York." "You can't buy me back that easily." "After what you said to me?" "Your cuppa joe is a cuppa joke." "Are you seriously still mad about that?" "We had a little fight." "Real friends get past those." "Real friends don't say mean things in the first place." "You called me an annoying dumbass." "And you called me an ass[bleep]." "And I'm fine with it!" "I get called an ass[bleep] all the time!" "I'm going to have to do God-knows-what to get myself out of debt, and you don't even seem to care!" "What hurts the most is that I actually thought we were friends since New York." "Say what you want about Jenna, but she would never treat me that way." "Okay, that was way meaner than "ass[bleep]."" "So you're really not gonna forgive me?" "Lissa always forgives me when I treat her like crap." " It's kind of my thing." " I'm not Lissa." "And I don't understand why you would want to treat any friend like crap." "I will accept your coffee, but not your apology." "♪ Warm days gone cold ♪" "♪ Please say you... ♪" "As recently as yesterday, living with Luke made me feel so adult, so then why today did fighting with Luke make me just want my mom?" "Mom?" "Anyone home?" "Okay." "If I couldn't have my mom, at least I could have my mom's clean sheets." "Living with Luke had meant feeling grown up, but it had also meant going without the comforts of home." "♪ Last night when night fell ♪" "Three flavors of ice cream."

"Since when are we doing hydrangeas?" "They cost more than the lilies." "They cost a little more, but they last twice as long." "And some members were allergic to the lilies." "So I'm saving you money and cutting down on complaints." "Oh, well, you should have asked me." "If you want to go back to the lilies..." "No, it's fine." "They're already here." "I thought we could use the extra money towards new hand dryers in the bathrooms." "I don't pay you to think, Rosati." "Meet me in the snack bar when you're done here." "Rosa found a mouse skull in the popcorn machine." "[gasps] Pretty flowers, Jake!" "Hey, is there any way you could pick up Mrs. Taylor at her house?" "Her engine died and she can't make it to my class." "I don't have time for that." "I got a million things to do." "Well, we all have our crosses to bear, Jake." "Managing this club is a demanding job." "Why does no one appreciate that?" "No, literally, my new class is called "Cross Fit."" "We all bear crosses on our back while doing core exercises." "I already bought all the crosses, and if no one shows, I won't meet my profit goal." "I can't leave, but maybe I could record you teaching the class on my phone and then email the video to Mrs. Taylor." "Great!" "[giggles]" "Could you also send one to Mrs. Yoo, Mr. Churchill?" "Oh, and Selma Froder is in Florida, she might want one..." "Why don't I just upload it to YouTube, and then whoever who wants the link can have it?" "That is so smart." "That way I can reach so many more people." "Thank you, Jakey." "Good gosh, just think of what Jesus could've done if he'd had YouTube." "You are going to smile, and you are going to take this like the grown-ass woman that you are." "I know these heels are high." "I know this is degrading."

"She didn't even get a spray tan for the rehearsal dinner." "If you ask me, she deserved strep." "Well, now I have someone that I can order around, and I don't have to feel bad about it because I'm paying you." "Don't worry about a thing."

"Why get all nostalgic about it?" "But then I broke up with Sully and figured, "What the hell?"" "You broke up with Sully?" "Sorry." " Don't act surprised." " I liked her." "Once you realized she didn't hate you." "True." "Luke and I got in this huge fight this morning, and something about running around Camp Pookah cracked out on bug juice just seemed comforting." "Lot of good times here." "The past isn't all bad, Matty." "You want to do something after this?" "Misery loves company." "You know what misery loves more?" "Frozen yogurt." "With gummy bears and those mochi things?" "Mm-hmm." "We could get some and bitch about our lives." " Friends do that, right?" " They absolutely do." "Then let's absolutely do that."

"She just wouldn't go deep on an emotional level, you know?" "She's kind of closed off." "And that's a bad thing, correct?" "Yes, I want to be with someone who wants to really know me." "Oh, come on, you aren't exactly an open book yourself." "Getting you to "go deep on an emotional level"" "is sort of like like snorkeling when you really want to scuba." "Really?" "I'm that closed off?" "Was I closed off with you?" "It's gonna take something a little stronger than chocolate coconut swirl for me to answer that." "Luckily, awesome Sully left a bottle of peppermint schnapps in my truck." "Shall we get drunk and get real?" "We shall." "Ugh, tastes like lighter fluid and breath mints."

"I was very open to the fact that that was an awful joke." "I didn't say you're closed off about everything." "Just everything emotional." "It's just standard dude stuff, I guess." "I'm sorry, I don't want you to think I'm being super critical." "No, I don't." "It's actually nice." "With Sully, the deepest stuff we ever talked about was during Truth or Dare." "And 90% of the time, she chose dare anyway." "Okay, tell you what." "This is the hood of trust." "Everything we say here is safe." "You can ask me anything, and I have to answer truthfully." "Truth or truth?" "Truth or truth." "Okay, same goes for you." "And nothing leaves the hood." "Okay." "But can we really ask each other anything?" "Anything." "Okay, this is my first question, and I really don't want it to damage our relationship, but I just have to know." "Why do you have a dream catcher in your room?" "I made that in Webelos, jerk." "Hood of trust." "Okay, we're going there." "What was up with the side braid sophomore year?" "You never took it out." "One minor misstep in an otherwise flawless hair record."

"Amy's really sweet and really freaking pretty." "I'm so glad I got to meet her." "Thanks, but that's not why." "I'm glad we ran into each other because I always hoped we'd end up friends." "You were way too important to me to just fade away." "Yeah." "Me too." "Tamara, you knew I wanted to get married." "It's something I've wanted a long time." "But you weren't ready, and I get that." "I guess." "Okay, would you really want to give up NYU right now to move to a base in North Carolina?" "I guess not." "So, friend, what's going on in your love life?" " Actually, I'm dating someone." " Yeah?" "He's tall and sweet and rich, and most importantly, all about me." " Well, that's great." " Yeah, I'm doing good." "The only hitch in the giddyup is that I've been heavily lying to him about being rich myself when I'm actually $12,000 in debt, but, you know, in the grand scheme of things, it's no biggie." "Okay, it's a small biggie." "It's a biggie small." "Why do you always do that?" "I'm a wordsmith at heart." "Equipped to quip." "I can't help myself." "No, I mean lie to guys about yourself."
