I just heard you talking
in the bathroom at the bar.
I heard what you said about me.
- It's not what it seemed like.
- Yes, it is.
But that's fine.
It's how you feel.
I can handle it.
I'm so sorry. I don't
blame you for being mad.
I'm not mad. I'm embarrassed.
And mad, obviously. I'm mad.
That's why I said those things.
Obviously.
Don't be like that.
What I was trying to say
is that I don't get you.
I mean, you have so much
going for you. It's frustrating.
You're smart and you're nice.
And you're cute. You're funny.
I'm not funny.
Well, maybe not on purpose.
What?
Oh, hey guys.
Towel. On the bed.
That was a mistake.
No, I know. I'm really sorry.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Okay. I'll talk to you soon.
- Okay.
- Okay.
I don't normally do this
type of thing, you know?
No, i...
I don't usually either.
I'm sorry I said that stuff.
Did you ever go to
cooking school or anything?
Oh, I went to college,
but I never finished.
Why not?
Why won't you talk to me?
I was home for the summer
after my junior year.
And Ben and I were on our
way back from some party.
Don't remember what we
were talking about.
This car...
The headlights of this car
just came out of nowhere.
What happened?
Were you drinking?
No.
No. The girl who was
driving the other car was.
Julie Redding.
She just ran the red light,
and I tried to get out of the way
but I just couldn't react in time.
Was she okay?
It's...
It's amazing.
People say these things
happen so fast and they do.
One second you're living
your life and the next...
Nothing's the same. I don't even
Not really.
Think about myself back then, it's
like thinking about somebody else.
I tried to go back to school,
but I was all screwed up,
so I came home. And I was only
supposed to be here for a minute,
but one day became a week, week
became a month, a month became...
Yeah, it was the devil's deal.
I could have eternal comfort, but I had
to trade in all my drive. And I took it.
- It's not true.
- It is true. It is.
But it's okay.
I'm scared.
I'm scared.
You don't think I see what's
happening all around me?
Don't think I see the world
I'm terrified. I'm terrified
that I'm so content
and terrified that I'm so not.
Does that make any sense?
You know, I never told Brad
that I took that pregnancy test.
That's all right. I mean, it would
be one thing if it were positive.
Okay, but the point is I should
be able to tell him everything.
Especially something like that.
And I can't.
That's okay.
You told me.
I really like you.
I should go.
Where you been?
Out with Brad.
Well, that's funny. 'Cause he's been
calling here all night looking for you.
You leading a double
life, Pinocchio?
Aw, come on.
shady too, believe it or not.
So I've still been thinking
about your friend Heather.
Oh, yeah?
Can I get her number?
Well, I should probably
ask her before I give it out.
Don't be such a b*tch.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.
Oh, how's...
How's Amber?
That's funny. She asked the
same thing about you last night.
Oh, that is funny.
What did you tell her?
Said you were all right.
Crawling up my list little by
little every day, popcorn man.
Great news!
Charlie!
What's that number?
You drink a lot, huh?
You get sick all the time?
You're being rude.
No, I find it makes
me feel better.
All right, let's cut to the
chase. What's your story?
- My story?
- Yeah, your dude situation.
Okay, uh, well I'd say
pretty standard.
I've been in a whole bunch of dead end
relationships, et cetera, et cetera.
I'm a romantic.
But I think co-dependency
is pathetic.
So I just keep my distance unless
Noted.
How about you?
Uh...
I don't really date.
I was engaged a little while back but I got
left two weeks before the wedding, so...
Oh, wow. Really?
She said that some day I'd
understand and then she hung up.
Did you ever understand?
Nope. No.
Wow. I can't believe you were
Yeah. Well, close only counts
in hand grenades, right?
You ever speak to her?
Uh, no, sir, I do not.
That makes sense.
Well, I don't believe
in real closure anyway.
It's like having a last meal
before an execution.
What, you know that 'cause
you were executed?
Chris? Thank you.
No. I'm sorry.
I was being nice.
Okay, Jack, are we ever gonna
get to a point in the night
where you take down that "I'm obviously an
insecure a**hole" wall? Or should I go?
'Cause I know that
guys like you do this,
but you're making me wonder why
you called me in the first place.
Okay, um, I'm gonna go.
I'm sorry.
Hola.
"Hola" means "hello," d*ckhead.
Right.
Something on your mind?
Yeah, I'm just overwhelmed.
Is it Brad?
- Hi,
- hi.
How's it going?
It's good.
Can we talk?
So what's wrong?
Okay, here's the thing...
I'm going to school in a few weeks
and I have a lot to figure out.
- I know.
- Do you?
I never should've gotten myself into
this position in the first place.
I don't think we
should talk anymore.
Mmm.
I'm sorry. I have to go.
Amber...
That day, those keys
I said weren't mine...
I was just so nervous.
to my house for the last month.
Hey, fellas.
Steve-O. I have a question
for you. Don't lie to me.
- You like playing video games?
- Yeah!
- Is that arcade on government
still open? -Uh-huh.
All right, I want you two guys
to go on down there
and get some games in on me.
That job in New Orleans came through, and
I ran into a little bit of cash, so.
Okay, take it easy there, pal.
I just had this washed.
All right, go celebrate for me.
About time I made someone's
day around here, huh?
Yes! Come on!
What's wrong?
I'm just dealing with
Like what kind of stuff?
You know. Anxiety?
Rejection. Inferiority. Paralysis.
Character issues. Moral issues.
Life stuff.
I've never been
the bad guy before, you know?
But I love you.
I love you too, buddy.
- Ow! Jesus, Steven!
Come here, honey.
Charlie...
What happened?
I was out running errands,
and I came home to this.
Where's dad?
The neighbors said they saw him
our front with a moving truck.
Do you have any idea
where he can be reached?
No.
I'm sorry, mom.
It's not your fault, honey.
"Dear Chucky.
"I'll return it all.
You have my word.
"Just make sure your mother
doesn't get too mad.
I know deep down
she understands. I love you."
- What's your problem?
- Nothing.
All right.
Brad! You okay?
Charlie? What are
you doing here?
Oh, my god.
It's a bad fracture.
Shouldn't be career ending,
but his season's over.
What the hell happened?
Uh, it was an accident.
We were racing...
- you were racing? -We were,
you know... he was...
I was being an a**hole.
