Because I Said So Page #4
on you and everything about it.
I'm just sort of wondering, if maybe
you ought to button those buttons.
No, no, I like it like this.
Milly, you look like
you're asking for it.
I am asking for it.
Okay, all right, I'll pretend
I didn't hear that.
All right, what are you
going to do with your hair?
I already did it.
Oh, of course you did.
Sure you did.
And you're making cookies too?
That's about the sweetest touch.
No, actually, I just want the house to
smell like cookies when he gets over here.
Mom, it's 6:
49, look. And he'ssupposed to be here at 7:00.
You have to go, please, please,
please. Okay. I can take a hint.
It's not a hint. Mom, go.
All right.
Oh, he's here. He's here.
Okay, you gotta go.
All right.
You gotta go please, Mom, Mom.
All right.
But wait, sweetie. Just
have a good time. Okay.
Feel free to be yourself, but
remember... I love you, but you gotta go.
...don't be too, you know, forthcoming
with all your failed relationships.
Okay, I got it.
And sweetie, sweetie.
I love you.
Keep that mystery alive. I love
you. I love you for some reason.
Okay.
I'm going to pull my hair out.
What? What, what?
I know, I know.
Just one more little thing.
I don't know, Mom, I gotta go.
He's here. I want you to wear this.
Oh, my God. Grandma's diamond? Yeah.
Put it on me, put it on me.
I want to wear it tonight.
All right.
Okay.
I know. I know, he's coming.
Don't worry. Here we go.
Okay.
Mom, you never let any of us
wear this. It's so special.
So special.
Thank you.
What?
May it bring you luck with the architect.
Your sisters and I will expect a full report.
Okay?
Okay.
I'll give it to you tomorrow
night after I go out with him.
Tomorrow night?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm going out with
another great guy tonight.
He's taking me to Luna Station
to hear some music.
You are?
Can you believe that, Mom?
It's like I gave up,
I stopped trying
and the universe brought me
two amazing guys.
Great, right? Wow.
Whoa, that's so great.
It's one of those
amazing things, huh?
All right, sweetie. Well now, bye. Bye-bye.
Go, go.
Go, Mother, go.
Hi.
It was either this or roses.
Thank you.
Come on in.
Cookies?
Yeah.
Nice.
Really seem to have such a different
approach and attitude towards life
that people don't really
get here as much, I think.
Okay, don't worry. We're gonna
get a quick look at who he is
and then we're gonna go home
and finish watching Gary
Cooper in Love in the Afternoon.
Come on, man.
Okay. Yes. Yeah.
Okay. Go, go, baby.
Okay, okay.
Come on.
Coop, Coop, everything's okay,
sweetie. Where the heck am I?
God. Okay. Oh, jeez.
Okay. Let me just...
Okay, I'll turn this. Okay.
Welcome,
what is your destination?
Luna Station.
Your address is...
Is, okay, what?
...1242 Amherst Boulevard.
12...
So where is Amherst?
Continue north 2.4 miles
and then east.
Well, where is north?
The left?
Continue north
2.4 miles then east.
Give me a left.
Give me a right. Left. Right.
Something like...
Please. For God's sake.
You know what you are?
Continue north 2.4 miles...
I'll tell you what you are.
... and then east.
You are redundant.
Continue north 2.4 miles and then
east. And it's a horrible quality.
You awful machine.
Continue, continue...
And that's for you.
I'm sorry, command too loud.
Are you guys ready to rock?
Yeah.
All right.
Let's play something
for Milly over there.
A little blues in E, okay?
One, two, three, four.
Now we're coming up on the A.
Molly, that sounds terrific.
I feel really bad.
No, no, I would have done the same thing
if one of my staff had called in sick.
It's only gonna be
20 more minutes.
It's just that they memorized
an E progression
and that is a major feat
for them.
Okay.
Yeah, I'll be right back.
Go, Nicky.
Yeah.
A little bit harder
over there.
Strum a little bit closer,
up here.
That sounds really nice.
Really?
Well, thank you, teacher.
Actually, I love to sing.
My whole family loves to sing.
And when I was younger, I always
wanted to take piano lessons,
but my mom was struggling
so much supporting us all
that I just felt
way too guilty to ask.
Here.
What?
What?
Play what you were playing
before. It sounded really good.
Really?
Yeah.
I'm no good, but okay.
Try it.
Like that?
Yeah.
All righty.
I'll take it up here.
Okay.
We'll meet in the middle.
It's down there.
Sorry.
How about I come close to you?
I don't mind.
All right.
Why are there a lot of ducks
in Venice?
Ten ducks are swimming
down the canal
and one says,
"This place is quacked. "
That's terrible.
No, that's really cute,
actually.
It's very cute.
This is me. Come on in.
I love this. It's so cozy.
Thanks.
So comfy.
Yeah.
Three, two, one, blast off.
I'm in orbit. I'm in orbit.
Okay, Lionel, let's... All
right. Okay, come back here.
Let's start winding down
for bed, all right?
Who are you?
What planet do you hail from?
This is Milly from planet Milly.
This is Lionel from planet Johnny.
Hi, Lionel,
it's very nice to meet you.
You have a 'gina.
I have a what?
I have a penis.
You have a 'gina.
Okay, buddy, give me
a break here, okay?
Can I see it?
Hey.
Lionel. Lionel.
Lionel.
Dad?
Hi.
This is Milly.
Joe Dresden. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Sorry. It's moon dust.
It's okay.
Well, excuse me.
It's usually just us guys.
Johnny hasn't brought home a gal
in, God, I don't know how long.
Great, I'm getting it
from both sides.
Sorry.
Come on, buddy, let's you
and me go in the other room.
These guys are boring.
Nope, nope, nope.
What'd you have
for lunch today?
Baloney sandwich.
I'm not the baloney.
Yes, you are.
I think we got him. There we go. We got him.
We'll see you.
Night.
Oh, my God.
Mr. Grant. This way.
Hey, man, how you doing?
This is so amazing.
Yeah.
It's really unbelievable.
Yeah?
This is so great.
It's beautiful.
It's great.
I love this angle on the city.
I never knew this existed.
Gosh.
So what's good here?
Well, I hope you don't mind,
but knowing your love of food,
I didn't want you to
miss these.
Oh.
No, no, no, that's great
'cause I make decisions
all day long.
You know, the Gillespies'
daughter is allergic to chocolate,
but she wants a brown cake,
and...
My lease is up on my car, do I get a
hybrid? 'Cause I really believe in them
but I don't know if it's time
to switch insurance, it's...
What I mean is, it's very nice
to not have to think for a change.
Well, last time I was in Italy, I was
in Siena, and they make this wine there,
and this is the only place
in the city that serves it.
You've been to Siena, right? Oh,
well, of course, I haven't. No.
Are you kidding?
Wouldn't it be fun to drink
our way through Tuscany?
Lt'd be amazing.
God, this calamari is so...
Is that City Hall? God, I love old
buildings. You know, the attention to...
Not that I don't love modern
architecture 'cause I totally do.
It's so bold,
