" Hey." " Hey." " Thought I was picking you up this morning." " Oh, I never said that." "Oh, I, uh, must have just figured." "Uh, want a coffee?" "Extra vanilla." "Mm, thank you." "So did you get my text message?" "I thought maybe we could order a pizza or something." "Ephram, I know I accepted your apology and I told you that I didn't wanna break up but I'm just not ready for this." "Okay." "Like this coffee, this coffee is desperate coffee." "Doesn't make up for the fact that you lied." "It doesn't make me forget what you did." "So just don't do it, okay?" " I was just trying to..." " It's not helping." "Amy!" "Oh, my God." " You're not gonna believe what happened." " What?" "Mrs. Baxworth just posted the list for "La Fille mal Gardée. "" "Any guess who's playing Lise?" "Me." "That good?" "Hello, it's the lead." " So it's good." " That's awesome, Pippi." "Congratulations." "It's only because you didn't audition this year, which was so cool of you." "Oh, that's not true." "You are super talented." "I totally suck, but my mom is gonna pass out when I tell her so I'm, like, forever in your debt." "Seriously, my first born, totally yours." "Oh, that's really unnecessary." " Thank you so much." " Oh, heh." "Wow, who knew you could make somebody so happy by not doing something." "Did you want that part?" "I didn't audition, so obviously I didn't want it." " Well, is she any good?" " She'll be fine." "Damn it, I gotta go." "My class is at the other end of the school." "Um..." "I can't carry this, sorry." "Okay, so I'll just see you never." "Our program is too demanding for a lot of patients and with such limited space we have to be very selective but Mr. Hayes' responsiveness is remarkable." "You say he was never capable of blink coherent responses before a month ago?" "Oh, there was nothing." "Not until Dr. Brown came into the picture." "Please, all I did was direct." "You and John did the heavy lifting." "Heh, Dr. Brown, your reputation is one thing, but this is beyond." "His progress indicates not only the right attitude and discipline needed to undergo our treatment protocol but also real potential." "His medication history, especially..." "Yes, that's why I asked you here." "To see him and to explain the treatment program to Mrs. Hayes." "Don't underestimate the aggressiveness of our approach but there's potential here." "Your husband could regain significant motor function, speech, movement." " How long would he be gone?" " Every case is different." "We've had patients discontinue care after as little as six or eight weeks." "Others continue to show progress for a year, or more." "A year?" "Uh, I'm not really sure it matters what I think." "It's not up to me." "Do you wanna do this?" "It could be horrible, it might not work at all." "But if it's what you want..." "Okay." "He's in." "What do we do next?" "We'll take care of everything." "We can have him transported to our facility within the week." "Okay, then." "Okay." "I know, I could've held back and left you more hot water, but sue me." " I like to floss in the shower." " It doesn't matter." "Hey, do you think you could pick up a fresh bag of salt at Ernie's?" "It's supposed to snow again and I don't wanna snap a femur on the way to the car." "Sure." "Hey, what's up with you?" "Don't tell me you're coming down with something." "I'm fine." "Just in no hurry to get up." "Hey, how about a nice quiet dinner tonight?" "Just you and me." "You can make that paella recipe you were bunker-busting about." "We spent 30 bucks on saffron, we might as well get our yellow's worth." "Pretty sure I could make it worth your while." "Aren't you gonna be late for work?" "Well, I could take 10 minutes for some quality time if you're up for it." "No, that's okay." "You go ahead." "So I have good news." "My mom said yes to the Sex and the City marathon, TBS version but I consider it a small win." "Can you still come tonight?" "What?" "Okay, so here's a question and I don't mean to cuss but what the heck is going on?" "What are you talking about?" "Nothing." "We've hung out the last three weeks almost every day, just the two of us." " I know I'm a huge party girl, tons of fun..." "Shut up." "But you have a boyfriend." "A cute one." "Goes by the name of Ephram." "I know and I see plenty of Ephram." "In the morning, lunch, between classes." "Sounds like real quality time." "Yeah, it's enough for now." "Besides, you need me more than he does." "Don't start." "I'm not starting." "It's true." "I know you don't like to talk about the whole Huntington's thing." "Someone's gotta make sure you're talking care." "Amy, let it go." "I either have the gene or I don't." "And you are avoiding the issue." " What issue?" " The Ephram issue." "Okay, you can either decide to forgive him or tell him you need more time to mull, but you can't just avoid him forever." "I know." "I know, I know." "I just..." "Every time I think about him going to see Madison I wanna punch him in the face." "Okay, well, maybe talking would be a better approach, certainly less violent." " You don't have to break up over this." " What if I want to?" " You don't." " How do you know?" "Because you wanna punch him in the face." "You don't bother punching people you don't care about." "Kind of wanna punch you in the face." " I know, that's because you love me." "Um, excuse me." "My appointment was for 10 minutes ago." "So?" "You wait longer than that to get your hair done." "Dr. Hartman will be with you as soon as he can." "Why call them appointments?" "They're more like approximations." "I told you the ETA." "The doc will lance your hemorrhoids in a minute." "So find a doughnut, sit on it, and approximate yourself out of my air space." "Edna, could you give me a hand here for a sec?" "I'll be right with you, Miss Wilkins." "So, Edna, how's it going?" "Good day?" " The lunch order come in okay?" " Dandy." "Sometimes they forget to bring dressing for the salad and there is nothing worse than a dry Cobb, am I right?" "I figured, seeing as how you just broadcast Miss Wilkins' ass update across the lobby you might be having a day." " You wanna tell me what's up?" " Nope." "I appreciate the concern, doc, but I'm not big on sharing." "That's cool." "You're a private person, I can respect that." "You'd be surprised." "A lot of people think I'm a great guy to talk to." "I'm all kinds of empathetic." "Do I look like I'm interested?" "Because I'm not." "You know, sometimes a hug breaks down the barriers of communication." " Don't even think about it." " I'll do it and keep doing it." "Feel the love." "No, it's Irv." "Ever since I came back to work he's been a heap of funk." "It's like waking up beside a banana slug every morning." "That sounds fun." "You think it's a serious depression?" "No, he's just bored out of his skull." "I pissed all over his world-tour retirement plan." "Now, he's a man without a mission." "So find another reason for him to stay." "I'll just go down to the hardware store." "I mean, you help him find his bliss." " His what now?" " What is he passionate about?" "What rocks his boat, gets him all revved up?" "You find what that is, and you bring it to Everwood." "But, hey, I'm just throwing linguini against the wall, seeing if it sticks." "You don't have to listen to what I say." " Hey, there." "Hey." "Everything okay?" "I should ask you that question." "You look like crap." "No, it was just a little heartburn, that's all." " So has John left yet?" " Three days ago." "First-class transportation." "The man looked like something out of Buck Rogers." "And are you feeling good about it?" "I think so." "It's a little strange." "He hasn't been out of my sight more than a few hours in five years." "I keep thinking I need to give him a drink or give him his pills." "Uh..." "Anyway, I, uh, just came by to give you my contact information in case you hear anything from the clinic or you just wanted to get in touch." " Where you going?" " Hawaii." "It's such a cliché but I've never been to Kauai." "Now would be a good time." "Charlie is gonna stay with my mom." "Well, good for you, you deserve it." "And Kauai is beautiful." "You'll love it there." "Hmm, so I've heard." "You wanna come?" "Kidding, heh." "I know, it was a mistake, it never should have happened." " I'm sorry." " No, no, no, I'm sorry." "I..." "Help us, we are an even worse cliché than Hawaii." "I know, I know." "Oh, Andy, we don't need to do this." "We're better than this conversation." " Definitely." " Good." "Uh..." "So I guess this is goodbye." " Well, I'll see you when you get back." " Not really." "I mean, why would you?" "Well, I mean, when John gets back from the clinic..." "But you're not his doctor anymore." "Your part's over, isn't it?" "There's really no reason to..." "That's true, I never thought of that." "I'll see you around, Andy." "So, what do you do all day here, dude?" "See those pamphlets right there?" " Uh, you wrote them?" " No, I file them." "And when the receipts come in from the printers, I file those too." "I'm noticing a trend." "Hey, it's what I do here, 9 to 5." "Except for the half-hour break to talk to my co-workers about how their filing is going." "You actually just made high school sound fun." " Heh." " At least you got cake." "Oh, yeah." "You sure you don't want?" "I'm not feeling very festive." " Amy still got you in the freezer?" " I can't get through." " Ever since I told her about Madison." " Which I told you not to do." "Which doesn't help, you reminding me of that every five minutes." "Anyway, it's moved beyond sucks." "It's like we talk, but we don't talk, you know what I mean?" "I know how her classes are going, but I have no idea how she's doing." " Tried buying her an expensive gift?" " Don't think that's gonna do it." "Maybe you and I have a different definition of expensive." "Look, Amy likes to hold a grudge." "When she was 12 I snapped her first training bra she acted like an only child for six months, through Christmas." "Great, only five months to go." " That's how long it's been?" " Yeah." "Okay, this is bad." "At least we know what we're up against." " Can I be honest with you?" " Sure." "I mean, talking, like, mean honest?" "Sounds like she's over it." "Okay?" "This is more than just pissed-off punishment here." "A girl does this and keeps it up for more than 10 days seems like she's phasing you out." " I know." "I know, you're right." "You're right, but what do I do?" "I mean, how do I phase back in?" "Face time." "Lots of it." "That's the problem." "I can't get an appointment with the girl." "Okay." "Here's the plan." "You come over for dinner." "Yeah, she's just dying to invite me." "No, no, you come as my guest, dude." "Okay?" "You're guaranteed to be at the table for the 20 minutes it takes to put away a roasted chicken." "You know, you chew with your mouth closed, you chat up the parents." "Do the perfect boyfriend thing and she's gonna be melting by Jell-O." "Yeah, I can do that." "You missed me, didn't you?" " Come on, a little bit?" " Shut up, dude." "I don't know why you just don't tell me what we're doing." "It's called a surprise, Harper." "Now, play along." "I know I threw a wrench in your phase three." "You had your heart set on going to the ends of the Earth to find the perfect place to write." "So I thought I would bring the perfect place to write to Everwood." "What the devil?" "It's not looking out over the Med, but I can bring you some hummus and pita bread." "Maybe even wear a mini toga." "Uh..." "I don't know what to say." "How about, "Thanks, you fabulous hunk of a woman you. "" "Look, you have been yakking about a place to write for years and the time to do it in." "Now you got nothing but time, I figured the least I could do is supply the place." " But how could you afford all this?" " Dipped into my savings." "That's what it's there for, right?" "I don't know what to..." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "Now, sit your butt down and crank out that great American novel." "That's an order." "You write them, I'll read them." "Just wonderful, dear." "Mm." "Mm-hm, really good." "This is excellent bird, Mrs. Abbott." "Thank you." "Would've made more had I known you were coming." "My bad." "I'm the one who invited him." " Sort of a spur of the moment decision." " That's right." " Kind of rude." "Like Hannah's not here every night." "Oh, now hush." "There's plenty of room for everyone." "This potato salad made a lovely addition to the meal, Ephram." "Yes, the perfect accompaniment to Chicken Cordon Bleu." "Thank you." "Amy loves it." "It's your favorite side dish, right?" "With sandwiches." "Mm." "Amy, I hear they announced the roles for the dance recital this year." "Mrs. Taylor came in bustling with excitement." "Lord knows why." "Her daughter can barely manage a two-step." "Let us know when the tickets go on sale." "Have to get some for Grandma and Pop Pop." "Don't bother, I'm not in it this year." "No?" "Why is that?" "Didn't audition." "Got a little consumed, and, uh, it doesn't matter." "You could still probably be in it if you wanted to, right?" "One of the swans or something?" "It's not "Swan Lake. "" "Oh, okay, I guess I just figured there were swans in every ballet." "Seems that way, right?" "You obviously haven't seen that many ballets." "Probably because you're too busy seeing rock concerts." "Damn, Amy, get over it already." "How many times does my boy have to apologize?" " "Your boy"?" "Whatever." " Apologize for what?" "Madison wasn't even there." "Besides, it wasn't his idea to go." "I'm the one..." "What about Madison?" "Me and Ephram went to see her band." "I left early so I could get to work." "Uber-responsible." " So it was your idea?" " Yeah, it was his idea." " It doesn't make it better, Ephram." " Oh..." "Seriously?" "No, because it was obviously this thing that needed to be discussed." "Which means it was important and wasn't some spontaneous bad decision but a premeditated bad decision." "Okay, obviously, you wanna be mad about it." "I don't want to be mad, I am mad." "There is nothing voluntary about my feelings." "You could volunteer to be cool." "You don't have to be such a chick about it." " Shut up, Bright." " Shut up, Amy." "Enough." " I'm glad you're friends again." "It's two idiots for the price of one." "Amy." " I'm trying, all right?" "I'm here." "I was trying to work it out, make an effort." "I didn't ask you to come here, so just go make an effort with Madison." "There's certainly no reason for him to do that." "At least you got face time, you know." "Did you know that Ephram went to see Madison a few weeks ago?" "And good morning to you too." " So did you know?" " Yes." " She wasn't there." " Yes, so I heard." "And did you also know in some twisted fit of guilt-fueled confessional reverie the boy actually told Amy about said indiscretion a fact which she found quite unpalatable." "I'm not interested in 20 questions." "What's your point?" " Why wasn't I informed about this?" " Because nothing happened." "You want me to e-mail every little thing that goes on to you?" "Yes." "Considering what you've dragged me into, I think I deserve every detail." "As long as our children remain involved, I want to know about anything that might affect the well-being of my family." "Or of this practice, for that matter." "Don't go there, Harold." "I saw Amanda Hayes in your office yesterday." "Were there problems with John's departure?" "She gave me her contact information." "She's leaving town for a while." "Why would you need that information?" "His consults with you are completed." "This has nothing to do with you." " Get out of my office." " It has everything to do with me." "Are you aware that any sexual conduct that occurs concurrent with a patient-physician relationship constitutes sexual misconduct and is unethical." "Not just in the eyes of God, but in policies developed by the AMA." "What are you more worried about, God or the AMA?" "I'm curious." "Oh, yeah, make jokes, doctor." "I lost my practice for lesser evils than yours." "You better believe that if the AMA does not object, this town will." "They will turn their collective backs on you." "Not to mention what they'll say about her." "Who the hell do you think you are?" "I brought you into this practice as a favor, you arrogant..." "Louise, call 911." "We need an ambulance." "Well, your H. pylori result is negative, so that didn't cause the ulcer." "And there's no indication of cancer in the area." "Have you been overdoing the insets lately for any reason?" "A few more aspirin, maybe." "Okay." "The scope looked good." "There were no compromised vessels, no clots." "So, well, you feeling more stressed out than usual?" "Define "usual. "" "If that's the case, you might make lifestyle changes to keep this from happening again." "I'll send a nurse later to talk to you about that." "No, no, I think I'll just..." "I'll just go and..." "Maybe not just yet." " Yeah." "Stick around for a few hours, make sure there are no more signs of active bleeding." " And you shouldn't drive." " No, I'll take him home." "All right, then." "I'll stop by again later." "Give a holler if you're in any discomfort." "Knock, knock." "Is there a doctor in the house?" "Oh, Lord." "I'll be on my cell phone." " Thanks, Harold." "How you doing, pal?" "I gotta tell you, when I heard the ambulance I figured it was one of your patients." "And when I saw it was you they were wheeling out my heart just jumped into my throat." " Well, that's very sweet of you." " So can I do anything for you?" "Run an errand?" "Walk your dog?" "Well, I'm currently dogless, so..." "Bummer." "You should think about getting one." "Pets have been proven to lower your blood pressure." "Oh, and yoga." " Yoga?" " Come on, deep breath in." "And say it with me:" "Om." "God, please let this be a hallucination from the drugs." "Om." "Om." "Hey." "Just gonna be a couple minutes to change and we can go." "We'll just stop by for a quick visit." "I talked to his nurse, doesn't sound too serious." "Good." " How'd it go at the office?" " Did you bang out a couple new chapters?" " I didn't go in." "Won't be going tomorrow either." "Why not?" "I thought you wanted to write." "I've never worked in an office a day in my life." "I can't figure out how you thought I'd want to start now." "Is that right?" "Well, why the hell didn't you say so in the first place?" "I was too shocked." "Mostly by how you just don't seem to get it." "Get me." "Not like I thought you did." "Well, you know what you can take a long walk off a short cliff." "I'm done." " Good." " There's just no making you happy." "You wanna be miserable, be miserable." "I gave you that place because I wanted you to have something special." " You don't want it, no skin off my backside." " I didn't ask for it." "I didn't ask you for a damn thing, but to go away with me and you couldn't do that." " And I explained why." "Sure, because you have everything you want right here." "A job you like, something to do every day, family but I'm just in a holding pattern for now and frankly, I don't know if it's worth it anymore." "Doesn't feel worth it to me." "Drive your own damn self." "Are you sure you don't want me to come get you?" "Okay, then I'II, uh, be here when Delia gets home from school." "See you tonight." "Feel better, Dad." "Hey." " My dad is in the hospital." " Oh, my God." "He's fine." "It's just an ulcer." "He should be home by tonight." "Oh, that's good." "Yeah." "Well, Hannah and I are studying for finals, so I should go." "Oh, do you wanna come by after?" "Um..." "Well, we're probably gonna be going pretty late, so I don't know." "Okay, um..." "If it's gonna be like this, you might as well break up with me." "I can't tell the difference." "You can't keep punishing me, Amy, I mean, you can but I don't know how much more I can take." "I know." "It was one mistake." "I know, but your one mistake made me realize all of my mistakes." "What do you mean?" "I gave up everything for this relationship, Ephram." "Did you know that I was gonna do paper this year?" "Mrs. Yarber wanted me to be feature editor and I also wanted to join youth and government and dance." "I really, really wanted to dance." " Well, why didn't you?" " Because I didn't think I could." "I didn't think I would have time to do all of those things and still maintain this." "Us." "I don't get it." "I didn't give up piano or..." "Exactly, but do you think that we'd be where we are now if both of us were trying to maintain the insane schedule that you keep?" "I don't..." "I don't understand." "One of us had to make a sacrifice and it was me." "I mean, think about it." "I study in your garage until you're done practicing and then we hang out." "I only applied to colleges around you..." "I never asked you to do that." "I did it myself because I thought it would be worth it." "I never thought that I would wind up resenting you for it." "Oh, but now you do?" "That's not my fault, Amy." "I never said it was." "But now, you're taking it out on me as if this is all something I asked you to do." "You didn't ask me, but you didn't mind either." "You must've noticed that 85 percent of our time, we spend in your garage." "But it was easier for you." "Guess you didn't bother to suggest anything else or at least I don't know, Ephram, thank me for it." " This isn't about Madison at all, is it?" " It is, though." "That one thing you did made me see the other side." "The side that you tried to tell me when you wanted me to apply to Princeton." "The "what if we don't work out" side." "And as it stands now, Ephram, if we don't work out I have nothing and you have everything." "I wouldn't have you." "Great." "Great." " I should go study." " Yeah." "Yeah, you, uh, do that." "Shouldn't you be lying on a beach right about now?" "I'm sure I'd still be on the plane at this point." " How'd you know?" " I went to drop off your CDs." " Louise filled me in on all of the drama." " Mm." " You don't do anything half-assed?" " Mm-mm." "You really shouldn't be here." "You should try and catch the next flight out." "I know." "It's funny, for the first time in five years I can leave town and for the first time I don't want to." "Did anybody see you come in?" "Don't worry." "I came in the back way disguised as a candy striper." "Cute getup, you'd like it." "I'm visiting a friend in the hospital, Andy not even Everwood is that starved for gossip." "Listen, Amanda, I..." "I haven't been able to eat, I haven't been able to sleep." "My head has been throbbing ever since..." "Now I'm lying in a hospital bed with a bleeding ulcer." " So, what is that?" "I did this to you?" " No, no." "Well, don't backpedal now." "Courage of your convictions and all." "We made a mistake." "Every time I see you all I want to do is make it again." "But I can't." "And if Dr. Abbott came by right now and saw you here..." "Got it." "Say no more." "I wanted to make sure you were okay, Andy." "That's the only reason I came by." "Hey." "You didn't have to come down here." "I know." "Delia is with Nina, who says, "Feel better. " And sent cookies." "I finished them on the way." " It's not what you think." " Well, I don't think anything." "She's married, right?" " Listen, Ephram..." " No, no." "Forget I said anything." "Not my business." "No, it's not that, it's just that I..." "I have nothing good to say." "I've never been one for do as I say, not as I do but right now I just..." "I don't wanna disappoint you." "Well, we can't disappoint each other, remember?" "New rule, no judgments." "So, what happened to you?" "You drove all the way to a hospital just to get out of the house." "Can't be good." "Amy's still pissed." "Ah." "You know, I think it might be over with us." "I seriously wish I was the one in a hospital bed right now." "Because bleeding ulcers are so fun?" "Because then I'd know where she stood." "You know, something like this happens and you can tell how people feel about you." "Hospitals really bring out the best in people." "Or maybe not the best, but the truth." "I mean, you see somebody you love like this..." "Huh." " And they forget they were angry with you." " Yeah, but more than that you remember how much they mean to you or you discover how much they mean to you." "When did you get so smart?" "I'm a senior, Dad." "It's time." "You've been sitting there for almost two hours." "You either read very slowly or you really like "Cathy. "" "Please tell me you guys aren't still studying." "It's not healthy." "We're not studying so much as analyzing and overanalyzing and crying." "She's doing most of the crying." "I'm all about being the shoulder." "They break up?" "Not yet, but they might, which means you and I should do something." "Oh, yeah, uh, like what?" "I don't know." "Stop them." "Good plan." "Impossible hanging from the ceiling part or?" "Maybe." "I'm still working out the details." "Why do you care so much anyways?" "I mean, yeah, it would suck for Amy and Ephram but they'd get over it eventually." "Then he'd be able to do stuff again without having to ask his wife for permission all the time." "Don't you ever wish Amy didn't have a boyfriend?" "I just want her to be happy." "The truth is they kind of give me hope." "I mean, what they have is kind of what we all want, isn't it?" "I guess." "Except for I kind of like going solo, you know?" "Keeps the options open." "But don't you wanna find someone special eventually?" "Someone that makes you feel like you knew each other before you even met?" "Like in a past life?" "I'm totally down with reincarnation." "No, I mean finding that one person that you click with." "That you belong with." "You find them and then when you're together it's..." "It's what?" "It's like Amy and Ephram." "Damn, that is a good-looking sandwich." " Let me have half." " Make your own." "Well, at least you made it out of the house today." "Come here." "We finally gonna make up?" "Because I'd rather do that upstairs." "I love you as much now as ever." "Me too." "I think we need a break." "We've been at each other for weeks now." "The rhythm is off somehow and I can't figure out how to put it back on track." "Not the way it is." "I don't wanna wind up resenting you, Edna." "Right now, I do." "So are we talking a temporary thing here or?" "Yeah?" " Hey." " Hi." " How's your dad?" " Oh, he's good." "He's fine." " I mean, he's back home." " Good." "So are we gonna do this now?" "Break up?" "Actually, I came by to say I'm sorry." "Oh." "Oh." "Yeah, you were right, you didn't ask me to do that stuff." "I did it by myself so now I have to undo it by myself." " Okay." "Uh, what does that mean, exactly?" "I need to get more of my life back." "See what happens with us when I do that." "There's still an entire semester of senior year left." " There's a lot I can do, right?" " Yeah, that sounds great." "But it's gonna change things." "You need to know that." "Um..." " What would it change?" " It's gonna mean less time." "You'd be shocked how much thought went into our free time." "You think it's been free?" "I have graphs in my room figuring how to maximize our together time." "I go to sleep two hours later than I used to." " Why?" " You think I can get real studying done when you're banging on that piano?" "Come on, now." " I guess you just made it look too easy." " Yeah, I'm good at that." "But I'm over that phase now and unless you can find more time in your schedule..." " I could do that." " We'll see." "I'm gonna do better, Amy." "I swear, I'm gonna pick it up on my end and do the graphs or whatever it takes because I don't wanna lose you." "Me neither." " I should go study." "Last final is tomorrow." " Yeah, you could study here if you want." "Or I could study wherever you want." "I'll call you later." "I only know one person as persistent as you and that would be me, so I have no right to judge." " I'm not here to apologize." " Oh?" "No, I've apologized about 10 times to you this week." "Really not my style." "Frankly, I'm over it." "So we have a situation here." "But what I need from you is a little more honesty and a little less bleeding ulcer." " Okay." "What do you wanna know?" " What do you got?" "Well, let's see." "I've become very fond of a married woman and it's bad enough that she's married, but..." "But her husband is a stroke victim." "And he was my patient, which makes it even messier." "So, what if he wasn't sick?" "What if he was well and kicking and able to beat you to a bloody pulp for stealing my heart away, then what?" "Well, it would still be wrong." "Duh, Andy." "Nobody's arguing that we've got the moral high ground but it wouldn't be so shocking, would it?" "Affairs happen, marriages end." "People fall out of love." "Not this way." "Wouldn't be a fair fight." "Nothing about my life is fair." "Listen I have been on the other end of this." "Julia had an affair when we were married." "Not that I didn't deserve it, but I know how it feels." "And I just..." "I just don't wanna be that guy." "I hate that guy." "In theory, I do too." "Only problem is, in practice I'm falling in love with the other guy." "So..." "So just strip it all away for a second." "I'm single, you're single, we met, we've done this dance that we've been doing." "What do you feel?" "How do you feel about me?" "Because if you don't feel anything, I'll go." "I will." "No more apologies, no more coming back." "But if you do..." "Do you?" "Yes." "I do."
