If things were different,

I would probably be

marrying you.

Yeah. Yeah.

I gotta get back inside.

[Laughing, Chattering

Wait a minute.

I want you

to promise me something.

Promise me that if you ever-

Because when you buy from Frank,

I will personally deliver

your new big screen-

I'm not giving up.

I spent too much time thinking

about Christy to walk away now.

[Frank Continues, Indistinct]

You think I'm insane for being

so hung up on her, don't you?

No, I think you; re a romantic,

and you're holding on to a dream,

even though the reality is

that Christy is a cheap slut,

and you deserve better.

You have the last cookie.

[Splashes In Water]

Okay. hat was a little blunt.

I just don't understand

what you're doing with her.

You should be

with somebody nice.

She just wants someone

to provide for her.

There's nothing wrong with that.

I just need some time

to get my game on, you know?

Just feel like

I'm playing catch-up.

What you did yesterday

was incredibly stupid.

In retrospect, perhaps.

Doesn't make it any less stupid,

just more understandable.

You're a really good painter.
