"Previously on "Everwood"..." "I loved it when you used to tell me everything about your life last year." "But now that I'm dating you, it's different." "You need to develop a sensor." "I want us to be friends again." "Can we do that?" "I don't see why not." "Whatever happened with Reid?" "Did he call you?" "He's moving in this weekend." "I didn't tell you?" "Shut up!" "For real?" "Too bad he's gay." "What?" "Yeah." "Reid's a big homosexual." "I can't keep crying over you, Ephram." "Why can't we just go back to being friends like always?" "'Cause we were never friends." "We can still talk." "We just can't go back." "Whoo!" "Give me my hat back!" "You interested in photography?" "Um, yeah, actually." "I don't really know much about it, but I'm certainly interested in it." "That makes you a perfect candidate for our club." "I'm Maura, by the way." "Amy." "Nice to meet you." "Is there anything you don't do?" " Hi." " Hey." "How are you?" "I'm great." "How are you?" "Nursing your mom back to health, starting college, and saving the world?" "Guess you're one of those "I'll sleep when I die" types, huh?" "I like to keep busy and especially 'cause I'm used to 8 classes back at County." "Now I only have 3." "3 college classes amount to like 8 high-school classes." "Trust me." "And you're taking organic chemistry, which really makes it more like 10 high-school classes." "If you need help, come by." "I'll be home later." " Really?" " Yeah." "It'll be good for me to brush up on this stuff." "Plus it'll make me feel smart." "Which is something I really haven't felt since med school started." "Uh, speaking of which, I got to run." "I got to go meet my new best friend, Ed -- a.k.a. my cadaver." "Ooh, see, that's what I'm looking for -- friends who don't talk back." "Funny." "You're funny." "Whoop." "Excuse me." "He is so hot." "And gay." "Hot and gay." "All the good ones are." "Here." "Come by friday." "Meet everyone." ""A midsummer nights 'back anal.'"" "It's, uh, bacchanal, in honor of bacchus, the greek god of wine, women, and song." "So, is it a party?" "Yeah, it's a party, and we're going." "You think we need fake I.D.s?" " Wait?" "We?" " Yeah, we." "I love parties." "Since when?" "You're like a social black hole." "All light goes into you and dies." "It's not certain whether light is conscious, so it can't die." "Second, I'm going crazy." "No piano." "No Amy." "All I have is my lit homework, and I read all that in A.P. english last year." "Told you A.P. classes were a waste of time." "You didn't listen to me." "We're in college now." "It's time to unleash the new Ephram Brown -- party animal extraordinaire." "I just remembered." "I can't go." "Why?" "You got plans or something?" "No." "I got a girlfriend." "So?" "So you don't go to a party when you have a girlfriend." "It's like taking Ben  Jerry's to 31 flavors." "Parties are not just designed solely for hooking up with chicks." "Yeah, they are." "Okay." "Um, so, bring Hannah with you." "I'm sure she'd love to go to a college party." "Dude, have you met Hannah?" "Okay, fine." "So, you're not gonna go to another party as long as you live?" "I'm just trying to grow up here, okay?" "I'm sorry." "I'll try to support your new found maturity." "Turn this in for me, will you?" "Enjoy the party." "Hey, don't worry about me." "I'll be fine." "I don't need a wingman or anything." "Cool." "Uh-oh." "Tough call." "Vanilla swiss almond or chocolate macadamia nut?" "I know." "It sounds more like an ice-cream parlor than a coffee shop." "Who cares?" "Business is obviously booming." "I guess that's why I haven't seen much of you lately." "Yeah, I basically live here now." "Nina?" "Oh, sorry." "Gotta get this." "You know, I was thinking." "Maybe you guys should come over for dinner sometime." "I bet you're in dire need of a home-cooked meal." "Your cooking -- not exactly a selling point, Andy." "Hey, I took an italian cooking class this summer." "I now make a restaurant-quality bolognese sauce." "Would saturday work for you?" "Are these all the invoices?" "We got to get that tax info mailed out." "Andy." "My man." "How are you?" "Jake, hey." "Congratulations on this whole operation." "It's really amazing." "Well, blondie's the boss." "I just work here." "So, uh, what's saturday?" "Um, Andy invited us over for dinner." "He's making bolognese." "You guys, the kids." "I thought we'd do it family-style." "I love the bolognese." "Let me just check my book, okay?" " Great!" " Great." "Great." "Great." "Good morning." "Well, you're looking very dapper this morning, Harold." "I like the tie." "Thank you." "Went with the full windsor today." "It takes a little longer." "Is that italian roast?" "I know I haven't had coffee for months, but I woke up this morning with a taste for it." "Well, that is wonderful news, Rose -- meaningful, wonderful news." "I don't know what it means." "I'm just happy to wake up and smell the coffee." "What you're experiencing is nothing short of a cellular metamorphosis." "Well, that's nice." "What time will you be home tonight?" "Hmm... usual 6:00, I'd imagine." "Why?" "I thought maybe we should celebrate all this good news." "Amy's staying late at school." "And I was thinking about making a pot roast for dinner... and cheesecake for dessert." "Really?" "It's been awhile since we've had... cheesecake." "You sure you're ready for that?" "I feel ready." "What does Dr. Chow say?" "It'll be three weeks before I can even take this pet scan, so I'm kind of in limbo." "But while I'm waiting, she advised me not to deny myself anything -- butter on my popcorn, cream in my coffee, and cheesecake." "Well, we mustn't disobey the good doctor's orders." "I'll see you at 6:00... on the nose." "Do you really think Jack White's hot 'cause" "I'm looking at him here and I got to say I question his hygiene routine." "Yeah, but he's like dirty hot not like Reid hot." "Amy, Reid is unavailable." "Doesn't mean he's not hot." "You must move on." "I will, but for right now, it's perfect." "I get to practice my flirting techniques without worrying about getting rejected." "'Cause you've already been rejected?" "Hannah, my entire gender has been rejected." "I cannot take that personally." "Oh, my god." "Ephram's here." "Oh, yeah." "I meant to tell you." "You knew Ephram was going to be here today?" "More like I knew he was gonna be here every day." "What?" "Ephram moved in with Bright." "It was totally last-minute and I meant to tell you, but " "Hannah, Ephram moved in with Bright and you meant to tell me?" "That's like "Paul Revere get on your horse and ride" type information." "I'm really sorry." "Bright and I had all that stuff to work out, and I just kept thinking, "I'll tell you when I see you."" "But I never see you because you're always at school." "And I'm always over here." "I'm just a horrible human being." "No, you're not." "You're a girlfriend now, which means you have more important things on your mind." "I get it, and I'm so happy for you." "Then why do you seem so sad?" "I'm not sad." "I'm just really tired." "The campus is really big, and I got lost a couple times today." "The weird thing is, like, not really knowing anyone in the halls, 'cause I haven't met anyone yet." "But you know what?" "God, I'm just being a complainer." "I'm fine." "You can always complain to me." "Thank you." "It's all good." "I'll see you later." "You're not gonna come inside?" "I can't." "Why don't we go somewhere else?" "No, you go." "Be with your boyfriend." "I've got a lot of homework." "I'll call you later." "Okay." "So, how long have you been on antidepressants?" "About a year now." "I started taking them maybe 6 months after my brother Mike died." "My mom thought it would help." "I'm sorry about that." " You mind if I ask " " Car accident." "It was the summer before he was leaving for college that it happened." "I remember he said I could move into his room after he left." "And he gave me this 'cause he knew how much I wanted it." ""Colorado youth baseball champs."" "Cool." "It was his lucky hat." "Anyway, after it happened, I was pretty much a disaster." "I started sleeping all the time, cutting school." "My folks took me to a guy in Denver who put me on this stuff." "I see." "So, it's not working anymore?" "No, it works great." "I got my grades up and a girlfriend and everything." "Oh, terrific." "Then why are you here?" "The thing is my girlfriend and I are pretty serious now, and we're ready to take it to the next level." "So you need contraception." "I wish." "See..." "I can't, um..." "Oh, I-I got it." "Well, first off, I hope you understand that it's not your fault, Ethan." "Erectile dysfunction is a very common side effect of antidepressants, and your girlfriend should understand that." "I don't feel like telling Karen about the whole antidepressant thing." "It's not exactly great date talk." "Of course." "That's your choice." "But, so, I went on-line and read that viagra works fine with my meds and it would help me be normal again." "That may be, but you're 17." "So?" "It hasn't been clinically tested on anyone under 19." "Plus, you're a minor." "Yeah, but I'll be 18 in like 6 months." "True." "But until then, I can't write you a prescription without parental consent." " I could call your parents " " No." "You can't call them." "They don't need another thing to start stressing out over." "Trust me." "So, basically, I have, like, zero options." "No, no." "You have a few options." "They're just not options that you like." "Look, why don't you think about it, and I'm not going anywhere." "Ooh, El Sombrero looks good." "They give the chimichangas two muy-muys." "No mexican, Hannah." "Some of us have to live here." "Well, that leaves chinese and thai." "Thai." "I like it better than chinese." "There's a difference?" "Thailand has a large ethnic chinese population, which is why thai food has chinese flavors." "But there's also a lot of vietnamese and indian immigrants, so the food, like the culture, became a melting pot." "You learn that in med school?" "Food network." "Gay people." "He just knows so many things." "I never would have thought that you liked thai food, Hannah, which makes me wonder -- what else don't I know about you?" "How do you feel about -- I don't know -- parties?" " Do you like parties?" " I don't know." "I did the conga line with my mom on the cruise ship." "Dude, knock it off." "All I'm saying is you don't want to go because you don't think Hannah would want to go." "I think we should let Hannah decide for herself." "Go where?" ""A midsummer nights bacchanal."" "Yeah, it's just a party -- people letting loose, having fun, going crazy, whatever." "Wouldn't know 'cause I'm not going." " It might be interesting." " It's not gonna be." "Trust me." " Are you mad?" " No, I'm not mad." "It's just..." "We're not going, so let's drop it." "You're up early." "Did you sleep well?" "Like a baby." "Didn't realize how exhausted I was yesterday." "Must have been Carol Meyers' triplets." "Children do take it out of you." "What is it, Rose?" "You're lurking." "Nothing." "I was... just wanting to make sure you're okay." "I'm fine." "Good because these things do happen now and then." "You don't have to give it another thought." "I won't." "Thanks." "You know, Amy left for school already, so if you wanted to, we could..." "Well, unfortunately, I do have an 8:00." "Ruby Weaver's phlebitis is acting up, so..." "Well, maybe we could make a plan for tonight." "Rose, I am delighted that you are feeling amorous these days, but I'm not your personal gigolo." "I cannot produce passion like a prisoner scheduling a conjugal visit." "For me, spontaneity is half the delight of amore." "That's not to mention my medical reservations." "Lest we forget, you did just have spinal surgery." "Three months ago." "Yes, but we don't have the full results yet." "Till you get your pet scan, we don't even know if the chemo even worked." " Physically exertion may " " Never mind." "Just forget it." "Rose!" "There's a mature response." "Come back." "I'm merely trying to explain " "I do not need you to explain my cancer to me." "I have an oncologist for that." "Like it or not, this is complicated." "No, it's not." "It's simple." "If you don't want to have sex, just say so." "Fine." "I don't want to have sex." "Good." "Neither do I." " Fine." " Fine." "I could fill that out for you, Mort." "Save you the trouble." "I'm a federal employee, doc." "Would I tell you how to do a proctology exam?" "Hey, Jake." "How's it going?" "Andy." "$2.12." " Want insurance?" " No, thanks." "Keep the change, Mort." "Afraid I can't do that." "Let me get the change box." "Back in a jiffy." "So, you better bring your appetite on saturday." "One of my old patients has a butcher shop in little Italy." "He sent me this great " "You can drop the act, Andy." "It's just us." "Okay." "Nina told me what you did, that you kissed her." "Jake, I'm sorry." "What can I say?" "Well, nothing." "There's really nothing you can say, but I'm not gonna play this game with you anymore." "I'll do it around Nina because I know it's important to her, but you and I are no longer friends." "I don't like you, and I sure as hell don't trust you." "Did you manage to pick up my stamps?" "Dr. Seuss commemoratives?" "I requested the snowy egret." "Sorry." "Got distracted." "What are you still doing here anyway?" "Just going over some old journals." "My surgical certification's coming up." "Staying late to study surgical procedures you could doing your sleep or, uh, something happened between you and Nina that you don't want to talk about?" "No, it's not Nina." "Actually, I've been thinking about Ethan Harcourt." " Ah." "Boner boy." " Yeah." "I don't know why I became such a stickler for the rules." "Rules exist for a reason, Andy." "You did the right thing." "I remember when I was his age." "Her name was Melissa Hobbs." "I needed a pill not to have sex with her every second." " I remember one night, I couldn't believe " " Sex, sex, sex!" "I'm just sick to death of the subject." "Why did we evolve higher lobes?" "To pursue art, philosophy, science." "Instead, all anybody seems to care about is keeping that little part of our brain stem happy." "We would be better off as chimpanzees." "Something happen that you don't want to talk about?" "Your clinically depressed teenager has more passion than I do these days." "It's natural." "With everything that you and Rose have been through," "I don't think sex is the first thing that comes to mind." "One would think so, wouldn't one?" "Not my Rose." "Interesting." "So, you want me to write you the prescription?" "Honestly, I wish it were that simple." "All right." "Is it a conscious decision on your part or are you actually having some trouble?" "Oh, I don't know." "Conscious, I suppose." "In many ways, I've been trying to detach so that it might be less painful if..." "It's crazy, I know." "No, it's not so crazy." "You're trying to protect yourself." "That's natural." "Maybe." "It doesn't make it any less stupid." "Well, that's true, too." "Why don't you just talk to her?" "It might help if she knew how you feel." "Tell her how I'm afraid that she might die?" "The immune system thrives on hope, Andy." "The past 4 months, she has received a steady stream of bad news and worst-case scenarios." "That's been more corrosive to her spirit than the chemo." "Why would I want to add to that my own fears and anxieties?" "Because anything you're thinking about, she is, too." "Don't worry about the conversations you have, Harold." "Worry about the ones you could be having with yourself the rest of your life." "Those are the ones that kill you." "Oh, that place was so much better than I thought it would be." "I say we go back there tomorrow night and we get the other half of the dessert tray." "Or we could go to that party tomorrow." "I thought we talked about this." "Actually, we didn't." "You just made a weird decision about it." "But I think it sounds like fun." "It's not." "Trust me." "It's a bunch of drunk idiots slamming to some lame-ass' 90s cover band." "You would be bored out of your skull." "You don't have to do that." "What?" "Lie to me." "I know you want to go." "You just don't want to go with me." "What?" "Who else would I want to go with?" "Anyone." "Look, it's obvious." "You're embarrassed because I'm still in high school and I wear bad glasses and I dress like Laura from "Little House on the Prairie."" "Hannah, seriously, no, no, no." "It's not you." "It's me." "We're already at "it's not you, it's me"?" "We are so dead." "Sit down." "Seriously, it is me." "I don't want to go to this party because when I go to parties," "I get all sloppy and I act like a moron 'cause I'm drinking and I don't want you to see me like that." " Really?" " Yeah." "Man, this relationship stuff is like the hardest video game in the world." "As soon as I level up, there's a new robo assassin waiting to take me out 'cause I don't know the secret code." "What's a robo assassin?" "Wait -- am I the robo?" "No." "Remember what you said last week?" "Now that I have a girlfriend," "I have to think before I speak so I don't say something stupid." "Now when I don't say what I'm thinking, I'm thinking that you're thinking" "I'm thinking something that I'm not thinking." "I'm still confused." "I want to follow the rules here, but they kind of keep changing." "The whole thing's making my brain hurt." "Bright, there's -- there's only one code, and it's not secret." "You just need to be who you are not who you think I want you to be." "You want to go to the party?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'm generally a fan of parties." "Good." "That's what I figured." "Um, do you have to drink at the party?" "I could say no." "But I probably will." " Do I have to drink?" " No, no." "Of course not." "Then we should go." "I'll be the designated driver, and if I feel uncomfortable, I will tell you and we'll leave." "I think you might be the coolest girl in the world." "I know." "You're very lucky." "Check it out." "That's the R.A. in Rossmore, right?" "Second floor?" "Hey." "Maura, right?" "I'm Amy." "Oh, Amy." "Hi." "I'm glad you made it." "This is my friend Ellie." "Have you seen this guy?" "He's insanely hot." "He's gonna be at fig tonight." "Fig?" "Yeah, it's this underground party." "Happens every friday night." "It moves around so campus security won't bust it." "Camden Hall, fifth floor." "Starts at midnight." "It starts at midnight?" "Wait." "I don't know if you can get in." "Freshman don't usually go to fig unless they have I.D." "Do you have I.D.?" "Um, no." "I don't." "But I probably couldn't have gone anyhow." "You brought your gear." "Yeah." "Was I not supposed to?" "Uh, well, tonight was just sort of a meet and greet." "Didn't you get the e-mail?" "I put it on the network." "I'm not on the campus system." "I live at home for now." "At home?" "Oh, my god." "That's so harsh." "It's actually not that bad." "I mean, once you get past the harshness." "Hey, so, does anybody know the name of the R.A. in Rossmore, second floor?" "Let me see, let me see." "That's a hottie right there." "You busy?" "Oh, no, I was just doing some research." "I'm making the pasta from scratch tonight." "Do you prefer linguini or capellini?" "Uh, listen, about dinner, I don't think that we're gonna be able to make it, after all." "Oh." "I'm sorry to hear that." "Yeah, Jake woke up yesterday morning with a really high fever, and it's not pretty." "So, you know, maybe another time." "Listen, Nina " " Are you Dr. Brown?" " Yes." "What on god's green ear this the matter with you?" "You write a prescription for a 17-year-old boy without so much as a phone call to his parents?" " I'm sorry?" " Ethan." "Oh, Ethan." " So it's true." " No." "I mean, yes he did come to me and ask me to prescribe him something, but I didn't do it." "Oh, really?" "Then why is he in the cardiac unit right now?" "Oh, my god." "He woke up this morning with chest pains." "My husband took him to county, and now they're keeping him overnight for observation." "How do you explain that?" "I can't." "But I can assure you that I did not write that prescription, and I'm certain my partner didn't, either." "Perhaps he went to another doctor." " You can't be serious." " I didn't say it was Jake." "There's only three doctors in town, Andy." "Well, someone gave it to him, and it wasn't me or Harold." "Nina." "Where do you think the keg's at?" "Dude, you hate beer." "Yeah, "when in Rome," right?" "You want one?" "No, I'm good." "You sure?" "I can drive." "Yeah, yeah." "Maybe later." "I like these lights." "Yeah." "It's a bacchanal." "It's in honor ofthe greek god B.A. baracus, who's the god of beer and kickin' it and stuff, and so it's kind of his party." "So, this is it?" "The partying?" "Yeah." "Just kind of hang out, you know, talk to people and stuff." "Hey, what's up, man?" "Uh, I would like you to meet my girlfriend, Hannah." "Hi." "You got to check out my room, dude." "I've got a flat-screen and the new "grand theft auto."" "We're gonna play for shots." "You know, we're just gonna sit out here with the band." "You go." " Really?" " Mm-hmm." "Yeah, I'm gonna find a bathroom, anyway." "I'll just meet you back down here." "Hey, what are you doing home?" "What does it look like?" "Well, it's just that it's saturday night." "I assumed there'd be some college mixers to attend." "Oh, there are." "One of them requires a fake I.D., and the other one Bright's at, and he took my best friend and my ex-boyfriend." "But thank you for asking." "And when you say "mixers," dad, you sound, like, 90." "Well, I'm happy to see you." "Perhaps we could watch a movie tonight, like the old days." ""Sound of music," always a tonic for the spirit." "I really can't handle the Von Trapp family tonight." "Why don't you go torture mom?" "Well, your mother's out tonight, I believe." "Although where she is, I have no idea." "Oh, that's just great." "My mother, who has a lower cet-cell count than I do, has a better social life than I do." "That's just... awesome." "Who needs a frat party when we can have a pity party of our own right here?" "You want to quit sulking and tell me what it is that's bothering you?" " You really want to know, dad?" " Yeah." "Really?" "Okay." "I'll tell you." "My life sucks." "Hannah's in the lovey-dovey stage with Bright, which means she doesn't have time for me anymore." "Which I could deal with, except for the fact that I can't make friends at school 'cause I don't live on campus." "Not to mention, dad, that my classes are massive and a hell of a lot harder than I thought my fall-back school would be." "I've been kidding myself about transferring to Princeton." "So, here I am, it's saturday night, and I am watching mindless television by myself because no one wants to hang out with me, except you, who's legally obligated to." "Amy " "And if you tell me that I'm at the prime of my life again, dad," "I will hurl the remote control at you." " Where you going?" " Out!" "What do we play?" "Thumper!" "Why do we play it?" "To get messed up!" "You have to drink now." "Chug!" "Chug!" "Chug!" "Chug!" "Chug!" "Chug!" "Chug!" "You must be crazy-wasted by now!" "Actually, I'm drinking soda." "You too?" "I wasn't feeling the beer thing, either." "Yo, Ephram, what's up?" "You having fun?" "We're playing thumper." "You want in?" "So you're where all the beers went." "Thank you." "See you next time." "Man, this sucks." "We got four more kegs coming and the band's done." "Don't worry, dude." "I'll take care of this." " Where you going?" " I'll be right back." "All right, now, this party is not over!" "Hey, man, give me a beat." "Yo, AM, how you doin'?" "Oh, that was lame." "Are y'all having a good time tonight?" "!" "One more time, y'all having a good time tonight?" "Now, when I say "hey," you say "ho."" " Hey!" " Ho!" " Hey!" " Ho!" "When I say "pound A," you say "beer."" " Pound A!" " Beer!" " Pound A!" " Beer!" "Yeah!" "It goes -- it goes, "hello, AM..."" "You okay?" "I'm... fine." "I'm just... tired." "I, uh, didn't know parties lasted so long." "That's not a good sign." "What's he doing?" "Oh, he's fine." "He hasn't even taken off his clothes yet." "But he's only had, like, two beers." "I don't even think he's drunk." "B-b-bounce it!" "Bounce it, bounce it!" "B-b-b-b-b-B..." "Hey, you know, there's a midnight show of "Batman" at the melody." "If we leave right now, we can make it in time." "No, I " " I can't leave him." "You sure?" "I don't want to leave you like this." "I'm fine, really." "Um, hey..." "Is he always so..." "Much?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I think he is." "Good to know." "I'm sure if you told him that it was freaking you out, he could tone it down a little bit for you." "No, I don't want to ruin his fun." "I was just curious." "Sure you're all right?" "Yeah, I'm great." "Enjoy your movie, Ephram." "...Y'all say "ho."" " Hey!" " Ho!" " Hey!" " Ho!" "Now only the ladies." "Now scream!" "Now the dudes do this like me -- "whoo!" "Whoo!" "Whoo!" "Whoo!"" "Well, I have been calling all over town." "Where were you?" "The last place you'd ever look -- your mother's." "I went to see her honeymoon photos." "Here." "She called it Greek moonshine." "Ouzo." "Lovely." "Perhaps I can use this in the snowblower this winter." "Look, Rose, I was talking with Andy earlier." "I think we need to have a discussion." "It sounds like it requires ice cream." "Rose?" "Ooh, I bought some of that hard-shell stuff you like." "Why don't you grab it from the cupboard?" "Your spirits are rather high." "I thought we were fighting." "We were." "I don't remember apologizing." "You didn't, and I don't want you to." "For the last four months, Harold, you've treated me like I was one of your patients." "Yesterday, you finally treated me like I was your wife again." "It's the first time since all this horribleness began that I felt like us again." "I've missed us." "I have, too." "I need you, sweetheart." "I need to feel you beside me again." "It doesn't have to be in the bedroom." "A fight's good enough for me." "Just a little passion." "Anything to bridge this gap." "'Cause I can manage all of the chemo, but the distance between us is killing me." "Oh, my sweet Rose." "You wanted to talk to me about something and I interrupted." "I'm sorry." "It's nothing." "Nothing at all." "I am going to have extra topping, and if you'd like, we could argue about what to watch on TV." "I promise I'm not stalking you." "I'm here to see the Caped Crusader." "Uh, you -- you're probably here with somebody." "I can go if it's weird." "No, I'm..." "I'm not with anybody, unless you want to count my milk duds." "You, uh... you want to be alone right now?" "No, that's okay." "You can sit there." "But I should warn you I'm probably not really good company right now." "Did something happen?" "No, not really." "Going through the change?" "That'd be nice." "That'd mean I was, what, like in my late 50s, married, kids, job, totally comfortable 'cause there was nothing major left to stress about?" "Somehow I don't think that's true." "No, probably not." "But it'd just be nice not to have to worry about writing a thesis paper or getting invited to the right parties, you know?" "Sometimes I just wish I was a little bit more finished, with some of the big stuff, I mean." "You finished high school." "That was a big one." "At least it was for me." "You hated high school." "Not all of it." "Welcome to the Melody Theater." "As a courtesy to others, please refrain from talking during the movie." "Psst." "See?" "Sex really does kill." "I'm sorry for lying to my mom about you." "I didn't know what to tell her." "How did you get the pills?" "That's what I still don't understand." "You know all those spam e-mails you get about porn and viagra?" "Well, I finally opened one up." "Yeah?" "What happened?" "I learned that college girls really do go wild, and then I purchased some little blue pills." "All in all, very convenient, except for the whole "winding up in the hospital" thing." "I doubt you got the real thing." "It was probably some kind of speed or veterinary medicine." "That's why your chest started to hurt when you took it." "Yeah, that's what the doctors here say." "I feel like suing the website, except then I'd have to publicly admit I'm a moron." "You're not a moron, Ethan." "You're just trying to have some control of your life." "It's pretty human, actually." "But I messed everything up." "There's no way I can keep all of this from Karen now." "Why would you have to?" "What part of this looks cool to you -- the antidepressants I'm on or the horse pills I took thinking it was viagra?" "Well, you practically risked your life for this girl." "What's cooler than that?" "Football." "It's not that I really care about being cool." "I've never been cool." "I just don't want to lose the one good thing that's ever happened to me." "You know I've had a crush on Karen since fifth grade?" "But I never told her." "I never really had the guts to." "And then, when Mike died, everything changed." "Nothing seemed as awful as that moment, so rejection from a girl wasn't a big deal." "Except she didn't reject me." "What makes you think she will now?" "I don't know." "I just know I'm scared." "I'm gonna give you two pieces of expert advice." "The first one is very simple." "Never lie to the people you love." "Tell Karen the truth." "Ask her to be patient." "What if she says no?" "What if she can't?" "Then she doesn't deserve you." "What's the second piece of advice?" "Never buy medicine off a porn site." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "How's it going?" "Well, if these are the best years of my life, I might kill myself." "Uh-oh." "That doesn't sound good." "Want to sit down?" "Yeah." "It's just that, you know, everything that used to come natural to me... is requiring quite a bit of effort now." "The only thing that seems kind of normal is hanging out at the movies with my ex-boyfriend." "Oh, you and Ephram were hanging out again?" "Yeah, we bumped into each other." "And at first it was weird, and then I realized the only reason it was weird was because it felt so comfortable." "And now you want to get back together with him, right?" "Maybe." "I don't know." "It's just so easy to be with him." "And, truthfully, I could use a little easy in my life right now." "You know, it's not supposed to be easy." "You've only been here a week." "I'm generally a quick learner." "My dad's a carpenter." "He hangs doors for a living." "You know I'm the first person in my family to go to college?" "I busted my ass, got a full ride." "But I had to work in the dorm cafeteria to pay for food." "Every morning, I would go down, put on a hairnet, and serve all those kids who I sat next to in class." "Sometimes you just got to pretend like everything's going great, even when it's not." "Like, if you put it out there that you're kicking ass, eventually, people are gonna start to believe it, and that helps you believe it, too." " Hey, babe." " Hey." "Lexie, this is Amy." " Hi." " Hi." "We better get going or we are gonna miss the movie." "Anyways, you, um... you feel better, okay?" "Okay." " Ready?" " Yeah." "You're a dead man, Bright Abbott." "I'll get it, babe." "Andy." "Hey." "Is everything okay?" "Actually, no." "Can we talk?" " Um..." " Porch would be fine." "When you said you wanted to be friends, did you mean it?" "Of course I did." "Because we're not acting like friends, and I don't know why." "I mean, I think that I'm trying here, but maybe I'm not trying hard enough." "What do you think?" "I-I don't know." "I mean, it's a hard situation, Andy." "I like the idea of us all getting together, but maybe it's too soon." "I've spent the last three weeks trying to keep Jake from going over there and punching your lights out." "I don't need you to protect me." "If tiny Tim wants a shot, send him over." " Are all men 12 years old?" " On the inside, yes." "Look, I don't think a fist fight's the answer, either, but at least it would be real." "I mean, what we're doing now, I can't do it anymore." "I'm getting TMJ from all the phony smiles." "I know." "Listen, if we really want to get past this, if we really want to be friends again, we're gonna have to be straight with each other." "We're gonna have to have awkward meals until they're not awkward anymore." "I know you're right, but I don't know what to do." "I mean, Jake is just -- he's so " "Oh, he's angry." "I understand." "And if he can't forgive me, I can live with that." "But it's not his friendship I'm trying to win back here, Nina." "It's yours." "It's ours." "I miss you." "So, if you and Sam would like to come over and share a meal with Delia and I... whenever you're ready," "just let me know." "Don't bother." "We don't have anything but ketchup and soy sauce." "Man, I got to go to my folks' house." "It's like a free-foodware house over there." "Hey, where'd you go last night?" "I went and saw a movie." "Saw your sister there." "That's so typical." "I take you to the hottest party in Colorado, and you bail to be with your ex?" "I guess the whole "new you" thing's not working out, huh?" "It's a work in progress." "There's no need to shock the system." "You were something else last night." "Yeah!" "Thank you." "I didn't mean it as a compliment." "You were kind of an ass." " Anybody home?" " Hey." "Brought medical supplies -- burgers and ibuprofen." "Oh!" "So Hannah, settle something for us." "Captain scrawny here seems to think I was an ass last night." "True or false." "Be honest." "Um... false." "Definitely false." " You were... funny, funny." " I was funny." "Well, the defense rests." "Sorry, player hater." "Did you have a good time last night?" "I was worried you might have thought it was lame." "No, no." "It was just, you know, different." "Yeah." "Uh, is it good different?" "Yeah." "Fun different." "It was fun." "Nice." "Okay, well, I'm gonna head back to my crawl space." "You kids try to keep it down." "We're gonna be the party couple of the century, me and you." "There's a luau this friday." "You know what I'm thinking?" "Coconut bikini." "What?" "Kidding." "But you could wear a grass skirt or something." "That'd be pretty cool, right?" "We'll think of something." "This needs more ketchup." "Luckily, it's one of the two things I have in my refrigerator." "Except some funky thai food, but I'll toss that later." "Bounce, bounce, bounce." "B-b-b-b-bounce." "Uhh!" "B-b-b-b-b-b-bounce, bounce." "B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-bounce, bounce." "B-b-b-b-bounce." "Uhh!" "Bounce, bounce." "Yeah!"
