Celeste & Jesse Forever Page #2

There's nothing wrong with that.

There's nothing wrong with it.

I mean, what do you think?

Well, to be honest--

Oh, my God.

We're signing Riley Banks?

What the f***, Scott?

I just trashed her on TV.

That's why I wanted you to come in

It's a huge account.

We built this company so we didn't

have to sign accounts like Riley Banks.

You and I may not have a company

if we don't take Riley Banks.

I don't understand.

She's like a vagina and a hairdo.

She's releasing a new CD.

She wants us to do the branding

and merchandising.

Ugh. Fine.

I'm gonna go eat my feelings.

If you want my opinion,

I do think you should start dating.

Scott, I'm fine.

I have so much time. I'm not worried.

Do me a favor and get your f*** on

before you meet the next guy.

What is that? What are you doing?

Sorry. I was trying to be

your saucy gay friend.

Didn't feel good.

No. Don't. Mm-mm.

The economic climate

is real bad, man.

I think my business

is taking the hardest hit of all.

It's brutal. Is it just me

or is nobody talking about it?

You sell weed, Skillz.

Not for long, dude.

You seen those weed pharmacies

on every f***ing corner?

They're killing me.

I mean, I think I gotta branch out,

start working in methamphetamines.

Or teach preschool, you know?

I love kids, and l just, I don't know,

always wanted to do that.

Sorry, dude.

I know this is serious talky time,

but look at the f***ing seat on that girl.

That is a party.

I don't think it's over.

What? Her butt? No, it goes on forever.

No, man. Me and Celeste.

She's overwhelmed and confused,

but I think she's gonna come around.

Oh, no. Really, pal?

I mean, it's been a while, you know,

but I think it's time to accept that

and move on.

Call that dime Veronica.

No, dude. That was a one-time thing.

Celeste does not know about it,

so don't tell her.

I didn't know that was a hit-and-run.

It's not like you really liked her, so...

She was cool, but she's not Celeste.

Okay, but remember,

you can't reheat a souffle.

What does that mean?

It's L.A. There's Bettys everywhere.

It's good to remind Celeste

you can pull a little wool.

Make her sweat a bit.

Yeah, I guess.

- How are you?

- Good.

So, what do you want, man?

Maybe I just don't wanna start over.

No, I meant, like, what do you want?

Do you want yogurt?

Can I have a goji-berry-and-green-tea

swirl with yogurt chips and Cap'n Crunch?

Would you go out with my friend ever?

No.

Where's your wife?

You guys are here every day together.

We're actually separated.

Oh, cool.

I mean, bummer or whatever,

but, okay, I'll go.

Just like that.

Cool.

You want it swirled or side by side?

What?

I need to say one thing.

Then I'm not gonna say

another word about it.

I'm sorry I wigged on you at dinner.

But I think it's stupid you're not together.

I do. You guys are best friends.

That's the hard part.

Nothing else matters.

Beth, I love Jesse dearly

but he doesn't have a checking account

or dress shoes.

The father of my children

will have a car. You know?

Jesse will always be my best friend.

Okay. I said what I had to say.

Not gonna say another word.

I just needed to say that.

It's a huge mistake

that he's living in that guesthouse.

You are breaking his heart, slowly.

Jesse is fine.

He's fine.

Hey.

You're not working?

You're watching

the Beijing Olympics again?

And you're crying again.

Matthias' wife died

in a car accident last year.

Uh-huh. Hey, did you finish that artwork

for the Pop Form website yet?

No, it's not done yet.

I'm still working on it.

I think you're gonna like it.

Can you finish it tonight?

Um...

No. Actually...

Sit down for one second.

I wanna tell you something important.

Oh. Okay.

Does it have something to do

with the work you owe me

that's late

that we were just talking about?

Tonight I am going on a date.

And I'm gonna date people.

That's great.

It is?

Yeah.

No, Jess. Please don't cry again.

Good for you.

Huh.

Doesn't bother you?

No.

Okay. Yeah, it's yogurt girl

from Yogurt Yurt.

Yogurt girl. Yeah, she's cute.

She's really young, right?

Super young, yeah.

But her body is, like, all-time.

Okay, there's no need for that, but--

Wow, that's great. That's really great.

This is good.

You gotta crawl before you walk.

She's not gonna be wifey number two,

but whatever.

No. It's just a date.

Hey. Big move.

I'm proud of you.

Thank you.

Can I get up now?

Oh, yeah.

Okay.

You're gonna be great. Call me after.

Ew. No.

I was in school, but I dropped out

because I wanna work in fashion.

But it's really hard

to find a paid internship.

So I went back to school,

and now I work at Yogurt Yurt.

I'm looking to make money

doing something I love.

I'm sure the universe has my back.

The right thing will come along,

you know?

I mean, you get it, obviously, right?

Totally.

Oh, my God.

- Oh, my God, Jesse.

- Shh.

"Do It on My Face"?

This song is about being who you are.

Unless who you are sucks. Ha-ha.

Ugh. Ew.

Everybody shut up.

They said it would be in new releases.

Where is it?

No.

Now, that's what I call placement.

You shouldn't steal it,

even if it is your book.

I'm just rearranging some things.

There.

You can't do that.

Yes, I can.

An employee didn't pick you.

Doesn't matter.

Hey- Employee picks.

Congrats. That's awesome.

Thanks.

What happened?

Employee picks.

Wow.

Jesse?

Hey.

Veronica.

Hey-

He)'

How's it going?

Good.

Yeah?

Yeah. Um...

How you been?

I've been good.

How have you been?

Good.

You look great.

Thanks. You too.

What are you doing here?

Uh...

Checking out books.

Same.

Yep. Ha-ha-ha.

How's your clothespin collage going?

You remember that.

It's good. It's good. Slow but good.

Well, don't give it up,

because it's really unique and beautiful.

I hope that didn't sound too--

No, no. That's really sweet and--

Good.

Yeah, that means a lot. Thank you.

You're welcome.

I had so much fun with you that night.

I'm sorry I didn't call.

I had a lot of fun too.

Cool.

Hey.

Hi.

I have to find more places

to put my book.

Veronica, these are my friends.

Celeste.

Hi.

Beth and Tucker.

Hi.

- On. Hi.

- Hey.

How are you? Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

Oh, wow. You wrote that book.

I just read an excerpt online.

It's really compelling.

Thank you. That's very nice.

You're welcome.

Well, nice to meet you.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Bye.

See you later.

Bye.

Bye.

What was that?

Veronica.

Story?

No story.

Just a girl I met a little while ago.

She's pretty.

She looks like a young me.

Ahem. Excuse me. Hi.

Do you have any more copies

of this book Shitegeist

for me to give to my friends?

Because I heard ifs excellent.

No, no.

Just one second. Hey.

- Just got out of the show.

- How was it?

F***ing dope.

Hey, are you busy now?

No, I'm not busy.

Can you help me build this dresser?

Okay.

I can't do it alone.

All right, all right. Okay, bye.

Jesse, I need you.
