" Previously on Felicity..." " l care about your dad." "You're not going out or anything?" "No." "Wait!" "I love you." "I'm really starting to hate that word." "I've tried to understand why you do this." "Every time I think about you and Noel..." "I'm sorry. I just... I can't do it right now." "I just can't." "[phone rings]" " Hello?" " Hey." "It's Meghan." "This weekend, you and Ben are getting back together." " What are you talking about?" " I'm doing a spell." "Oh, my God." " Do I mock your beliefs?" " Sorry." " What's the spell?" " Unicorn root, pansy flower, your hair, Ben's hair, couple other things." "Uh-huh." "You're laughing, but you're gonna feel stupid when it happens." "This, I used to get the Spice Girls back together." " They're not together." " They will be." " What are you doing for Thanksgiving?" " When is it?" "Tomorrow." " [door opens]" " Hold on." " What the hell's that?" " A turkey." "I was the hundredth customer at La Food." "Sean just stole a turkey, so we're doing Thanksgiving." "Wanna come?" " Sure." " Okay." "Cool." " Felicity's in." " What?" " What about Ben?" " What about him?" "He's not gonna come if she's here." " He's right." " Then he won't come." "He lives here." "I just remembered the oven's broken." " lt is?" " You broke it making heated shoes." " Oh, right." " So, can we do it at your house?" "No. I think Sean's right." "It's just gonna make everyone uncomfortable, especially Ben." " Have you heard a word?" " Yes." "But I'm not thinking about getting back together." " Yeah, right." " l'm not." "But it would be nice to have Thanksgiving. lt is our last one." "You're gonna be there." "Ben's gonna be there." "This spell works." "I'll talk to you later." "Bye." "Mmm." "Mmm." "This is good." " Don't eat that." " What?" "(sing) Can you become" "(sing) Can you become" "(sing) A new version of you" "(sing) New wallpaper" "(sing) New shoe leather" "(sing) A new way home" "(sing) I don't remember" "(sing) New version of you" "(sing) I need a new version of me" "(sing) New version of you" "(sing) I need a new version of me (sing)" "There you go." "Yeah." "Nice." "Nicely done." "Yeah." "Well, I should've taken the train." "It is good to see a friendly face." " What's going on?" " Nothing." "Just..." "It's good to see you." "Here." "From Mom." " Strudel?" " lt's great." " l had a piece in Yonkers." " Oh, wow." " You should call her." "She's worried." " About me?" "You know how she is." "She's ready to send out the bloodhounds." " Just been busy." " How's that fancy new graphics job?" " lt's good." " Yeah?" "Yeah. lt's good." "So, can I... can I park here?" "Um..." "Monday..." "Thursday..." "Eight..." " Leave it." " Yeah?" " Yeah." " l'll leave it." "You should tell her this stuff instead of letting her think your life is a disaster." " My life is not a disaster." " So call her and tell her that." " He's gonna say no." " l'll get him to say yes." "How are you gonna do that?" "What?" "We're having Thanksgiving dinner." "You wanna come?" " Uh, yeah." "Sure." " That's it?" "It's a little more complicated than that." "We're having it at Felicity's." " Oh." " So I left out a few details." "I'm just gonna go to the hospital, see my dad." "We're gonna be hanging out, maybe open that case of imported beer." " Imported?" " New Jersey makes great beer." "It sounds good, but I was gonna go see my dad anyway." "What's going on?" "Uh, nothing." "I don't know if you guys have met my brother Ryan, but..." "That was Ben." "This is Sean." "Meghan." " Nice to meet you." " You, too." " Hi." " Hi." "So, you two have plans for the holiday?" "Yeah." "We're going to this place on Eighth." " We are?" " Yeah. lt's great." "That's cool." "We were gonna invite you to dinner." "Maybe we should just have dinner with your friends." "You came all this way, so I wanna spend some time with you." "All right." "We'll see you in a bit, okay?" " Have a good dinner." " You, too." "[Javier] lt was a calamity." "Because Samuel didn't want raisins in his stuffing?" "Because we fight all the time about raisins in the stuffing or who broke the butter dish." "Our home is like CNN, but instead of news 24 hours a day, it's bitching and moaning." "So I just needed to change the channel." "I took Mommy and we left the house." "She likes milk and two sugars." "Okay." "What are you doing for Thanksgiving?" "We're having a dinner at the place." " Can we put raisins in the stuffing?" " Sure." "You, I love." "See what Aunt Felicity made for you?" "She's a caffeine addict." "Hey." "Benjamin and Samuel should spend the holiday together." "I'll be right back." " Hey." " Hey." " You're not coming to Thanksgiving?" " Yeah." "Ben, look, I know you're angry, but..." "You shouldn't be alone on the holiday." "Who said I was gonna be alone?" " Oh. I..." "No. I just meant..." " No. I'm gonna see my dad.." " Oh." "Okay." " Okay." "[sighs]" " Trevor." " Hmm?" "This application is due Monday. I'm never gonna finish if you keep sighing." " Was I sighing?" " Yeah." "I'm sorry. I'm reading this book." "I have no idea what is happening." "You're not reading a book." "You're reading Cliff Notes." " Why do they make this hard?" " Cliff Notes?" "College." "This is English One, and it's harder than it was last time." " What last time?" " l failed it freshman year." "You failed English One?" "It wasn't my fault." "The books they assign are too long." "Five hundred characters." "They all have these Russian names that sound the same." "College is supposed to be the time of your life, but this sucks." " Hey." " [both] Hey." " This is Taffy and Gammy's room." " They're in Florida." "Thank God. I couldn't deal with them through dinner." "What dinner?" "Thanksgiving." "We're having it here." "You're invited." "To my own apartment?" "Thanks." " So are you." " Oh." " lsn't he?" " Yeah." "You should come." "Okay." "Thanks. I will." "But... first I have to go see if I can find Cliff Notes on these Cliff Notes." " Bye." " Bye." " Bye, Meghan." " Bye." "Why did you do that?" " What?" " Invite him." "Because I thought you liked him." "I do, but I don't know how smart he is." "is that horrible?" "The only thing worse than dating a dumb guy is dating a dumb guy who doesn't brush his teeth." " Give him the test." " What test?" "This thing I made up." "It screens out idiots." " l am not giving Trevor a test." " l'll bring it to dinner." "This is a weird holiday." "Cranberries?" "Pumpkin?" "Yams?" "Who thought up this stuff?" "Oh, and that is always a crowd-pleaser." "I can't believe how much better he's doing." " lt's like he's a different person." " l know." "What?" "I just wanted to say something." "It's Thanksgiving, so..." " What is it?" " Just..." "Thank you." " For what?" " Well, for coming here." "Not just today." "Yeah. lt makes it easier." "Yeah." "For me, too." "Do you wanna go to the cafeteria and get something to eat?" " lt's Thanksgiving." " l know." "They probably have turkey..." " No." "That's so depressing." " Yeah. I guess so." "I want a real Thanksgiving dinner." "My family throws one every year. lt's huge." "The whole neighborhood comes. lt's fun." "Don't you have one to go to?" "Yeah. I was invited, but I'm not gonna go." "Why?" "I don't know." "It's just gonna be kinda weird." "Let's go." "Oh, come on." "I don't mean to invite myself." "I don't know anybody else." "It's either that or I eat alone." "I swear I won't pick my nose or do anything to embarrass you." "It's not that at all. lt's gonna be at my ex-girlfriend's place." "If that's gonna be weird, then..." "Let's just go." " Yeah?" " lt'll be fine." " You sure?" " Yes." "Yeah." "Let's go." "[Lauren chuckles]" " Hey." " Hey." "The reservations aren't until 8:00, so we can do whatever you want." " lt's your call. I'm up for anything." " Okay." "Tell me about this job." "Truth is, I sort of got fired last week." "Why?" "What happened?" "Just this little thing with me and the boss's daughter." "I don't wanna talk about it." " ls everything okay?" " Yeah." "Everything's fine." "Because, you know, things seemed a little tense over at your place." " Do we have to talk about this?" " Noel, what happened?" "Nothing. lt's not a big deal." "[sighs] Felicity and I slept together." "What?" "Are you guys getting back together?" "No." "She was still with Ben when it happened." " Things are still pretty tense." " Well, I can see why." " What?" " Look." "Nothing. I..." "What?" "Say it." "You've been in love with her forever." "Okay?" "But I don't know. lt just... lt seems like you're not making the smartest moves." "You always do this." "You act like I'm an idiot and you have all the answers." " You asked me." " l didn't even wanna talk about this." "I wanted someone on my side." " l am on your side." " Okay." "I'm going for a walk." "I'll meet you at the restaurant." " Noel, come on." " l'm fine." "They give you a test before they let you drive." " Shouldn't it be the same with dating?" " Guys are different from cars." "[sighs] Not really." "Just checked on Mommy and she's fast asleep in your bed." " Oh." " ls that a problem?" "No." "Not at all." "I can't believe Ben hasn't shown." "I'm glad we're doing this." "It feels like we're a family." "A divorced family." " [doorbell rings]" " Who is that?" " Benjamin?" " l told you this spell is kick-ass." " Hi." " My friend Lauren." "This is Sean." "How are you?" "Who's that?" "I have no idea." " [Lauren chuckles] - [Sean] Hope you're hungry." "Lauren, this is Meghan." " Hi." " Hi." "And this is Javier." " Hi. I love your blouse." " Oh, thank you." " What?" " And this is Felicity." " lt's nice to meet you." " You, too." "Thank you for letting me crash your dinner." " Of course." " Guess you changed your mind." "Yes." "You wanna sit down?" "Yeah." "That'd be nice." "I am so sorry about the blouse comment." " lt's okay." " Who is she?" " She's in A.A. with Ben's dad." " Ben's dating a drunk." "She's a recovering alcoholic, and they're not dating." "Cross your fingers." "I invited Ben, not Ben and some woman from A.A." "It's nice that he brought her." "She has nowhere else to go." "Just admit you wanna wring her neck." "He's allowed to be with whoever he wants." "She's so strong, like Joan of Arch." "Here you go." "Hold on." "So, you're going with Dallas?" "They've got nobody." "I always go with the underdog." "Yeah." "So do I." "I love Dallas." "Their cheerleaders are hot." "Yeah." "Don't tell Meghan I said that." "Can I get you anything?" "No." "We're fine." "I'll be right back." "(sing) Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout what's goin' on with me" "(sing) If my life were a picture I wouldn't like what I'd see" "(sing) Seems like my dreams have become a thing of the past" "(sing) I've been losin' focus I've been fadin' real fast" "(sing) I woke this mornin' My mind felt so free" "Can I buy you a drink?" "Yeah." "Sure." "Sure." "I'm Dana." " Hi." " Hi." " l'm Noel." " Hi, Noel." "(sing) I'm on my way Gonna turn it around" "(sing) And I'm starting today (sing) [cat meows]" "Oh, Mommy." "Say hello to Benjamin." "Hi." " Hi, Mommy." " [meows]" " Your new girlfriend seems very nice." " She's not my girlfriend." "Uh-huh." " She's not." "But so what if she was?" " Uh-huh." "Hey, I don't owe Felicity anything." "Uh-huh." "is that all you're gonna say, "Uh-huh"?" "It's what I say when I don't have anything nice to say." " Oh." " Look, I don't wanna take sides." "I know you want to hurt her, but this is not the way." " l'm not trying to hurt her." " Uh-huh." "You can believe what you want." "I don't care." "[cat meows]" "Don't take his side." "I'm just trying to help." "Now I'm getting a silent treatment." "Fantastic." "So Ben tells me that his ex-girlfriend lives here." " ls that you?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "How long you go out?" "About a year and a half." " Hey." " Hey." "Lauren said that your dad's doing really well." "Yeah, he is." "I'm gonna help Meghan." "It was nice talking to you." "Yeah, you, too." "Just a sec." " Applications?" " Yeah." "What's up?" "Thought maybe you'd like to come join the party." " Oh." " Or I can... bring the party to you." "Oh, that's so sweet." "You." "[giggles]" "Wait!" "What are you doing?" "No!" "Oh, you!" "That's more like it." "Oh, hey, I finished those Cliff Notes, and War and Peace is actually pretty good." "What's wrong?" "Nothing. I..." "I'm just working on this essay." "There are a few questions I can't figure out." "Like what?" ""What planets are between the Sun and the Earth?"" "You have to know that to get into med school?" "I'm a dead man." "You know the answer?" "Yeah." "Yeah. lt's Mars and Venus." "I'm sure you can get it off the Internet." "Yeah, but that's not the point." "[sighs]" "Okay, what is the point?" "[dinging]" "Okay, before we begin stuffing our faces, I would like to say a few words." "It occurred to me while I was brushing Mommy's hair that this may be our last Thanksgiving together." "[sighs] Are you trying to bring down the room?" "I know." "Makes me wanna cry, too." "But we all know, especially now with all the craziness in the world, that nothing lasts forever." "Well, nothing but the love that we have for each other." "So forgetting all about our little soap-opera dramas-- and I'm not pointing any fingers-- let's all give thanks for each other." " Cheers." " [Elena] Cheers." " Did you give him the test?" " He's zero for one." "[Lauren] I went by that place that you work." "It was very funny." "I can't believe how much they charge." "Everything." "Eight dollars..." "Ben, could you please pass the gravy?" "Ben." "[Ben chattering, Lauren laughing]" "Hey, Ben!" " Yes?" " Pass Felicity the damn gravy." "Sorry." "Yeah. I'm sorry." "Thanks. lt's okay." " So what's the capital of Washington?" " Washington the state, right?" "I'm trying to remember it for this essay that I'm writing." "What's the damn capital?" "This end of the table's so boring." " Olympia." " Really?" "I was gonna say Seattle." " That's what everybody would say." " Well, not most people." "What about the sale at Barney's?" "Doesn't anyone care about that?" "Barney's." " You don't like it?" " No, I do. I guess I'm not hungry." " [Lauren] Thanks for having me over." " No problem." "Hey, Lauren. I'm sorry to interrupt." "Do you have a boyfriend?" "I have a great guy I'd love to set you up with." "No. I just got out of a long-term relationship." "You guys'd be perfect together." "He's in A.A., too." " What are you doing?" " What?" "You have no idea how difficult it is for women out there." "Actually, it's not that easy for guys either." "I've never had any problems." "Thank you so much for your interest, but I'm..." "I'm really not ready." "You seem ready to me." "Well, it was one of those really excruciating breakups." "I'd been in love with this guy since high school..." "Whoa." "That was a long-term relationship." " What's your problem?" " l think you know." " No. I don't." " Meghan, back off." " You're on his side?" " He didn't do anything." " Please!" " What did I do?" " Wanna play Yahtzee?" " You didn't do anything." "Except waste the last year and a half of my life." "Nice." "Yahtzee?" "I get it, okay?" "But I don't know how many more times I can say I'm sorry." " l am sorry." " Fine." "Obviously it's not fine." "is that why you came, to get back at me?" " Are you serious?" " Well, is it?" " No, it's not." " Then why?" "If you hate me so much... lf being with me was a waste of your time, why come?" "You're right. I have no idea." "Clearly, it was a mistake." "Let's get outta here." "[Lauren] Thanks." "[phone ringing]" "You've reached Blumberg Productions, home of Schmeghan Shirts." "Press "1" for Customer Service, "2" for Investor Relations, or "3" for Schmeghan-By-Mail." "[beep]" "Hey." "It's Noel." "Is anyone there?" "Ryan, are you there?" "Yeah. lt's me." "You're where?" " Ryan?" " Yeah. lt's me." "Hey." "Could you wait outside for a second, please?" " You live long enough, you see it all." " Thank you." "[snickering]" "Hey." " Thank you." " [both chuckle]" " Talk about embarrassing." " Yeah." " So, what happened?" " You don't wanna know." "Yeah, I do." "I waited around for you all day." "I know. I'm sorry." "I met this woman in a bar, and we came back here, and... and she robbed me." " [scoffs] - l know." "Can you believe it?" "What's the matter with you?" "I came here so we could spend Thanksgiving together." "And what, you're picking up some woman at a bar?" "[sighs] He's all yours." "[chuckles] Don't worry." "This won't hurt a bit." " [Ben] I am really sorry." " [Lauren] lt was my idea to go." "It wouldn't be Thanksgiving if there wasn't somebody fighting." "I thought your Thanksgivings were fun." "They were, but they always ended up with a brawl." "I have three immature brothers who also like to drink a lot." "You and Felicity still have kinks to iron out." " No, we don't." " Yeah." "You do." "But it's okay. I get it." "I really do." "Believe me." "You should call her." "Yeah." "Maybe I should." "Yeah." "I'll call you." "Happy Thanksgiving, Ben." "Yeah." "You, too." "I know one thing." "I'm putting a hex on Lauren." "Meghan practices Wicca." "It's earth science that's tied to cycles like the changing of seasons." "For example, the winter solstice." "Elena sounds like Jacques Cousteau without the accent or the underwater camera." " When is the winter solstice exactly?" " Hell if I know." " December 22." " There you go." "Wait a minute." "What are you doing?" " Sean, they're having a conversation." " Oh. [scoffs]" "The capital of Washington?" "The winter solstice?" " You're giving him the test." " Whoa." "Whoa." "What test?" "Meghan's got this test to see if guys were smart enough to date." " Which, clearly, you're not." " Oh." "Hey. I'm sorry about that, you guys." "You're okay?" "Yeah, but I don't think Mommy's feeling well." " She was making some weird noises." " Maybe it was all those sweet potatoes." "She does look a little peaked." "I'll take her home to Samuel." "If you want me to fire Benjamin, say the word." " l'm gonna go, too." "Thanks for dinner." " l'll be right back." "Oh." "We're going home." " Want some pie?" " Yeah." " Are you trying to prove I'm an idiot?" " No." "I'm sorry that I'm not as smart as you." "But why should it bother you?" " lt's not that." " What is it?" "Why is it important that I know when the winter solstice is?" "I don't know." "I was just trying to figure out if we were right for each other." "Oh." "Well, that's one question I do know the answer to." "[sighs]" "I hate Thanksgiving." " Sean, where's Felicity?" " Where's your brain?" "You moron." "You walk out..." "Meghan, shut up." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Yeah." "Sure." "My spell's gonna work." " You don't shut up when I tell you to." " 'Cause nothing you say matters." "I'm sorry I brought her." "I shouldn't have done that." " No. lt was a nice thing to do." " That's not why I did it." "When somebody hurts you, you wanna hurt 'em back." "But then I look at you, and no matter how mad I am... I want the hurting to stop." "[sighs]" " l'm gonna get outta here." " Stay." "Five minutes." "He had zero outta three right?" "Whoa." "That's sad." "[knocking]" " [shouting] I'll get it!" " Shh!" "Like they're paying attention to us." " Maybe he's right." " Sean hasn't been right in three years." " No. I mean Trevor." " He definitely hasn't been right." "What difference does it make if he's smart?" "He's fun, funny... lf fun, funny, dumb guys are your thing, go for it." " Are they really in there?" " lt's been over an hour." "Can't believe it, although it's so uplifting." "Do I need an uplift, and I'm not talking about my face." " Why?" "What happened?" " l left Samuel." " You leave Samuel every week." " This time, it's for good." "I brought Mommy home and told him she was sick." "He didn't bat an eyelash." "Then it hit me like a tsunami." "I'm with some guy who doesn't care that my cat is sick?" "I packed and we left." " lf you need a place to stay..." " You can't stay there." "So, they're really back together?" " Yep." " Oh, yeah." "Just gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling all over." " Doesn't it, Mommy?" " [meows]" "You're always warm and fuzzy." " l guess we got the signs wrong, huh?" " Fifty bucks." "Fifty bucks." "Look, I'm..." "I'm gonna call Mom." "I don't know what's going on." "I keep saying everything's great, but it's just not." "It's hard... when you're not with the person you love, and..." "Yeah, but that's not what this is." "I know what that feels like, and that's not this." "You know when we were kids... and Dad would shut off after the evening news... and, like, this black cloud would settle over the house?" "Yeah." "It wasn't just the news." "Maybe what you're going through isn't just your personal life or your job." "You know?" "It wasn't for me." "I don't know." "I..." "I think I got it from Dad." "Like my nose and the way I walk... and the way that... sometimes... I'm so depressed I can't even get outta bed." "Well, I'm..." "Well, I'm not depressed." "I know. I just..." "Now when I get that way..." "I talk to somebody." "And it really helps me." "You are a good person, Noel." "Yeah." "Well, look. I'm..." "I'm sorry I ruined your Thanksgiving." "Ah. I'll get you back someday." "I know you will." " l love you, Ryan." " l know." " Call Mom." " l will." "Hey." "Your roommates told me you were here." " l want you to look at this." " Another test?" "No. lt's my med school application." "3.8 G.P.A. Congratulations." "Look at the last page." ""Please list any extracurricular activities or interests that have had a major effect on you in the last four years."" "I've been trying to answer that question all week, and... I have nothing, because all I've done is study for the last four years." " Good for you." " No, it's not." "I spent so much time studying that I forgot to have a life." "You were right." "Stupid facts and making good grades isn't everything." "It's just... all I have." "I'm the stupid one, not you." "You should write about your tutoring." "You're really good at it." "You explain things clearly, and..." "you don't make people feel stupid." " l don't?" " Well, not usually." "Hey, I felt stupid way before I met you." "That's a good idea." " Thanks." " Sure." "Hey, I got another one." "You tutor me in chemistry, and..." "I'll tutor you in darts." " Come on." " What?" "Yep." "Come on." "Here you go." "Just hold it like that."
