Babysitter's Black Book Page #5

---

I--I just--we're both going

to different schools.

It seems crazy

to start something now.

If you're not into me, just

have the balls to say it.

I'm just--I'm just not

that much fun right now.

My parents are broke.

I--I'm working my ass off

trying to figure out how

to pay for college.

I understand.

But I'm not gonna give up.

I really don't want you to.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Rachel is busy that afternoon,

but I'm sending Louise.

You'll love her.

Okay. Thanks.

How could you be so stupid?

I just forgot

my pills. Okay?

Shoot me.

- Is Jack the dad?

- Back off.

If she knew, at least

he could pay for the abortion.

Whoa. Who says anything

about an abortion?

Are--are you retarded?

She can't have a baby.

Why not? What, 'cause

it's inconvenient?

Tons of couples

would adopt this baby.

Okay. W--will you clue in

Miss Naive?

Listen to me.

This is your decision.

Whatever you want to do,

I support you.

And what am I gonna

tell my parents?

They're gonna kill me.

Well, if you get rid of it,

you won't have to tell them.

Okay, Rachel. None of us

wanted this to happen,

but it did.

All right?

It may screw up your plans,

but you can make new plans.

This is a baby

we're talking about.

Dr. Davis, telephone, please.

Dr. Davis, telephone, please.

This is not how

it's supposed to be.

I'm supposed to be

in love or married.

I'm not ready to be

a mom, not like this.

I'm such a freakin' idiot.

This is not a choice.

This is a nightmare.

Stop beating yourself up.

You made a mistake,

but there are people

here you can talk to.

I know all the choices.

They all suck.

And where the hell

is Rachel?

I can't believe

she's bailing on me.

I totally can.

Woman:

Janet Moss.

Want me to

come in with you?

I love you, but I

have to do this alone.

How's Janet?

Huh. Like you give a damn.

Doctors' offices

freak me out. Okay?

I--I'll call her.

That'd be nice.

Ash.

Walter asked if

you're free this weekend.

Apparently he thinks

you're a hottie.

God, can't you just

give it a rest for a day?

Okay. I'm the only one

looking out for us.

Without me, neither of

you could pay for college.

Are you kidding?

This is the only thing

that you can think about.

I'm outta here.

Gilli.

Gilli, wait.

Gil--okay.

I got waitlisted

because of you.

I'm sorry?

You can't pay for it.

Everybody knows your family

is out-of-work losers.

Oh, that's weak, Harper.

That the best you got?

You'll never fit in.

You're not a Pressman girl.

What's a Pressman girl,

some stuck up rich b*tch

who couldn't get in

without Daddy's money?

Oh, that's right.

You didn't get in.

You pathetic loser.

A pathetic loser

who's going to Pre--

Oh, come on, ass hat.

Come on.

Let's go. Come on.

let's go!

You can't change who you are.

And so you'll always

be a miserable b*tch.

Better make me

look fabulous.

Ashley, meet Tiffany,

an old friend.

Walter, what's going on?

Let's take some

real pictures.

I'll talk to him.

It won't happen again.

Ugh. I feel dirty.

I don't want

to end up like her.

I want out.

You--you want out?

You--you want out of--

of what?

Pressman? Berkeley?

'Cause this is your ticket out

of your parents' broke-ass life.

Hey, I will find another

way to pay for school.

If I can't figure it out,

I'll go to community college.

But I can't do this.

Ash.

I thought, hey,

I'll get my degree.

I can forget about it,

just act like it didn't happen.

But, look, I can't--

I can't. I can't.

Okay.

It's--it's your life.

But promise me

you'll keep quiet.

Here they are,

my two star students.

Hey, Joe, you're gonna

have to build another shelf

to put this award on.

No kidding.

But you did it.

You worked your butt off.

You made sacrifices.

Good job.

- Oh.

- So proud of you.

Thank you, Daddy.

Look at this--

Ashley?

Hey, it's so great

to see you again.

What are you doing here?

Uncle Walter, Aunt Sharon's

been wondering where you were.

Walter:

Thanks, hon.

Mm-hmm.

God, it's hard to tell

who looks more terrified

back there, you

or Uncle Walter.

He's always had the hots

for young girls,

the old horn dog.

It was so great

to see you again.

Usually he buys

them fabulous gifts.

So what did you get?

You have an

overactive imagination.

We met at a meeting

of entrepreneurs.

We talked for five minutes.

That's it.

Do you know what would

be really amazing?

If he gave you cash.

You are so out of line.

I bet at the admissions

office at Pressman

would just get

a huge kick out of this.

Goody-goody Ashley's

a hooker.

You're disgusting.

You can't just make up crap

and spread it around.

Save it.

How about this?

Withdraw from Pressman,

I'll keep my mouth shut.

Don't, and I will tell

the school, the media,

basically the whole world.

Think about it.

Hey, here you go.

Hey, love the dress,

so cute. Here you go.

Mark?

Hey, hon, I, uh,

I have to stay late.

I'm working

the Rumson case.

I think you need

to come home.

Hey.

I assume you

read the article.

Yeah, yeah.

Nasty rumor.

Sad if it was true.

Does this, um, have anything

to do with you and Ashley?

What? No.

Honey, come--

Then why did she say

she had to leave by 5:00,

before you got home?

Mark.

Did you have sex

with Ashley?

Don't lie to me.

- Linda...

- Don't.

Don't touch me.

Linda, I thought

I was losing you.

Okay? I felt like old news.

Ashley, she thought

the world of me.

What? Are--are you trying

to blame this on me?

No.

It's on the years,

on the routine.

Honey, it's--

I just wanted to feel

powerful and exciting,

like the way Ashley saw me.

Oh, what am I supposed

to do with that, huh?

Go ahead, honey.

You know, feed your

vanity with a child.

Mark, she's a child.

Linda, I made a mistake,

but I love you. Okay?

What if someone did

that to our daughter?

Get out.

Get out of this house and

don't come near our children.

Trashy hoes.

Want to have

some fun later?

Sluts!

How about them old guys?

Hey, baby,

I got five bucks.

How about Joey's dad?

Skeevie hoes need to

stay away from our guys.

Is it true, what

Harper's been saying?

- Leave her alone.

- You shut up.

I'm sorry.

I was desperate.

Is that why you

won't sleep with me?

'Cause I didn't pay you?

No, no.

I really like you.

I just--I was afraid

I'd embarrass you

if this came out.

I'm s--I'm supposed

to be grateful that you

wouldn't sleep with me.

Daniel--Daniel, please.

Know what? Maybe you

should have paid me.

Girls from your high school

are turning tricks

to pay for college?

You're not a part

of this, are you?

Why?

My college fund was gone.

We needed money.

I didn't know what to do.

That's no excuse.

Ashley, you were not

raised this way.

Mark made it

seem so simple.

He'd pay for college if I...

Wh--if you what?

Made him happy.

I ought to kill him.

- He's got a daughter.

- I ended it.

I made a mistake.

Was he the only one?

Mark?

There was one other.

Okay. Okay.

I had so much

respect for you.
