Bite Page #2

- It's good to have you back, Casey.

- Thanks, Mr. Matheson. It's good to be back.

Well, you two go have fun.

And thanks for walking him.

Thanks. We will.

Come on, boy. Come on. Come on.

Come on, Cyrano.

I have to postpone the wedding.

I just...

I can't do it.

- I know. I know it's really hard.

- I can't do it.

- I'm not ready.

- I know, honey.

That's why you need to talk to him,

tonight. Tell him how you feel.

You owe it to him and yourself.

If you wait any longer, it will be

too close to the wedding to turn back.

And how...

Mom, please. Enough already.

I don't want to hear it anymore.

Well, you're going to.

Mom, Casey and I are getting married.

You need to start accepting it.

You're my son. The only good thing

I have in this wretched world,

and I will not just watch you

make the same mistakes I did.

For the last time, Mom, my fianc is not,

nor has she ever, cheated on me.

That's what I said about your father.

She's not good for you.

I've gotta go.

I'll see you later.

- You're late.

- I know. I'm sorry, babe. Work was...

Yeah.

Are you mad?

No. Come on, dinner's getting cold.

So Chuck looks at this guy and he says,

"What are you f***ing kidding me?

"Homeless Henry,

on 9th dresses better than you do."

Then, babe, I swear to God,

Chuck looks this guy right in the eyes,

and he says,

"Get the f*** out of my office,

"and don't come back

until you buy a decent suit."

Casey, you okay?

Yeah, I just...

I just must have caught

a bug or something.

Hey, where's your ring?

Oh, I wanted to clean it after the trip.

It's just soaking in the bathroom.

Oh, you know you've got to watch out,

what you put your ring in.

It's white gold, so...

Jared, we need to talk.

Okay.

I've been thinking a lot about the wedding.

- And about a lot of other things.

- I know.

My mom was telling me,

you're a little bit behind on the planning.

She said she's totally willing to help.

It's not that.

I just...

- Babe, are you sure you're alright?

- Yeah.

I just...

- Casey, you alright?

- I'm fine! I'll be out in a minute.

That didn't sound good.

Must be the food from the trip.

You know me.

Well, I guess we're done with dinner.

Sorry.

Come on, let's get you to bed,

get you some rest.

Okay.

Touchdown.

How you feeling now?

Better.

I'd like you to stay.

You know, when I got a place here,

to help my mom with the building,

I thought I was only gonna be here

for a couple months.

I couldn't wait to get back

to the upper east side.

And then I met you.

And I didn't want to leave.

Your mother won't know

if you stay the night.

Have you met my mother? She'll know.

- She hates me.

- What? That's not true.

She does. You won't even

sleep here because of her.

She's just a little old fashioned,

that's all.

Hey, listen to me.

I love you.

And next week,

you and I will be husband and wife.

And after that,

we'll leave this place, and we'll...

start our lives together.

She'll come around, you'll see. Okay?

Okay.

- Casey.

- Come on.

- Casey, we should wait.

- Shut up.

- Casey.

- Shut up.

- Casey.

- Shut up.

Casey?

I'm fine! Everything's fine!

What the hell was that?

I'm fine! It's just a small

bug bite from the trip.

Well, it looks infected.

Yeah, I have some cream for it.

Just gonna take a bath first, wash it out.

Really? So we're done here?

You have an early morning.

You should go before your mom notices.

Well, are you at least gonna say goodbye?

Good night.

Well, have a good night.

Where have you been?

Flake much?

Sorry. Rough night.

You too?

It is like the worst diarrhea ever.

I told Kirsten we shouldn't

have drank the water.

I know, right?

Well, look at you, miss Molly Homemaker.

He must've known something was up,

if you cooked for him.

So?

What did you say?

I didn't tell him.

You didn't tell him?

Jesus, Casey, the wedding is in a week.

I know. I know. I just couldn't tell him.

Last night, I couldn't tell him.

It's okay. It's okay

Honey, you know I love you, right?

- And I love Jared too.

- Yeah.

He's a great guy. He's established,

he's mature, he's good looking.

And he's ready.

But, honey, you're not ready.

If nothing else, our trip proved that.

Did he notice your ring is gone?

And you lied to him about it, I assume.

Oh, honey, it's okay.

Oh, it's alright.

You're gonna be fine. You'll see.

What?

One of my bites,

I think it's infected. It hurts.

Look, ever since

we came back from this trip...

Oh, tell me about it. Look, I'm covered.

But I went to the dermatologist yesterday,

and he gave me this cream.

- You need to use it. It helps.

- Yeah.

But I have to get to work, honey, okay?

I'll talk to you later?

Yeah, yeah.

Kirsten? Kirsten? Get up. It's Casey.

- Is she okay?

- I found her. I don't know. Let's go.

Casey? Casey, what happened?

Casey? Casey! Casey, wait.

Casey!

Oh, my God, Casey?

Did someone have a good time last night?

I don't know what happened.

I woke up naked on the beach.

Everything was gone. My clothes, my purse.

The ring, my ring is gone.

- Where the hell did you go?

- I don't know! I can't f***ing remember.

Jill, are you filming this?

What the f*** is wrong with you?

Turn it off.

- Morning, Casey.

- Hi, Mr. Matheson.

Dear, you're as pale as a ghost.

Yeah, I must have caught

a bug down south. I'll be fine.

You have to watch it down there.

They have all sort of weird critters.

Cyrano? Hey. Come on, let's go for a walk.

Hmm. Cyrano? That's very strange.

Cyrano, come. Come on, boy.

Come see Casey.

Come on, you lazy dog. Come.

Cyrano, come here.

Cyrano!

I don't know what's gotten into him.

I'm sorry, Casey.

Maybe he's not feeling well either.

Maybe he just wants to stay in today.

We can try it again tomorrow.

Yeah. Okay.

- I'll come by in the morning.

- We'd look forward to that.

- Hello?

- Hey.

- Hey, what's up?

- What are you doing?

Are you sure about this? About postponing?

When are you gonna tell him?

I don't know.

Tonight maybe.

You know,

why don't you just sleep on this?

It just seems a little impulsive.

Hey... have you been sick at all,

since our trip?

Yeah, I've been tired as a motherfuck.

I'm telling you,

I am never traveling again.

Why? Are you okay?

You know, you don't look so good.

Yeah. I don't know.

I can't eat anything.

I can't keep food down.

- Maybe you're pregnant.

- What? Don't even say that.

- Are you sure?

- Yes.

I'm not pregnant. I'm not.

I can't be. It's not possible.

Hi, Barker's After Hours Clinic.

Hi, I was in Costa Rica last week,

and I got bit by something in the water.

Okay, what did it look like?

I don't know. I didn't see it.

Are you looking at the bite mark now?

- Yes.

- And what color is it?

- Red.

- Does it look infected?

Yeah, and it hurts.

And there's this weird white liquid,

that just keeps coming out.

Okay, that's just pus.

Have you put any antiseptic on it?

- No.

- That's the first thing you should do.
