Um, excuse me?

Sorry. Excuse me.

Hey.

Well, it was really

nice to meet you.

Oh. Yeah.

Um, do you think that

I could call you?

S-sure.

- I mean...

- Do you have a pen?

Oh, sorry.

Oh, hey. Actually, I could just

punch it directly into my cell.

Oh, great.

Go ahead.

I, I can give you

my work number.

That's cool.

Actually...

home is fine, too. Or cell phone.

I mean, either way.

Um, well...

It's okay. Go ahead.

I'm ready.

Uh, nine...

Nine.

Six, five, one,

So much could happen

on a night like this

we can make the memory

of our first...

[Car alarm chirps]

Hi, Abe.

Did you have a nice time?

[Woman on TV] You said

you wanted me to look sexier.

Here you go.

Thanks, Justin.

Did you finish

the spreadsheets?

I'm on top of it, dad.

I need them done

by Monday morning.

I know. I said,

"I'm on top of it."

[Telephone rings]

- Need a hand?

- Thanks, Marie.

But, really, I can deal

with this on my own.

- How's it going, cuz?

- Fine.

Are you going to

see Tron Legacy?

The trailer looks pretty good.

Where are you going?

I have a meeting.

Oh.

Reach out for more

and make it better

than it's been before

today is gonna be

the perfect day

to step into your life

and make anything change

you can be who you want

you can be ...

[car alarm chirps]

Excuse me.

Oh, hi.

Can I help you?

Yes, I'd like to make a return.

Was there something

wrong with the item?

Well, I bought it here last

week, and when I opened it,

I saw that it had

a scratch mark on it.

Ugh... you opened it.

Yeah?

Sorry. Once you've opened a sealed

item, it's no longer returnable.

But it had a scratch mark on it.

I'm sorry. You opened it.

Can I speak to the manager?

He's not here right now.

Well, then,

when will he be back?

Oh, gee, I don't know.

He's on break.

I want his name

and his telephone number.

Well, I'm sure if you wait

just a few minutes...

I have no time for this sh*t!

You'll be hearing

from my attorney.

[Dice rattling]

Pff.

Oh! Do you

know what? Um...

I gotta go to the

bathroom, okay?

No, no, no, no, no.

I'm winning.

It's not a forfeit.

I'll be right back.

[Phone rings]

Hello?

Hello. Is this Miranda?

Who is this?

It's Abe. How you doing?

Abe?

From the wedding.

Oh, yeah.

How's it going?

Fantastic!

That's great.

How's it going with you?

[Instant messaging

chimes heard over phone]

Okay. Can you

hold a sec?

Hello?

Uh...

listen, sorry,

but I have to go.

Oh, uh, no problem. Would you

like to get together on Saturday.

Okay, bye.

I'll come by at 3:00.

Now is the time

to stand up and say,

to go my own way

to do my thing

now is the time

to reach for the sky

now is the time, now is ...

[car alarm chirps]

Hi, I'm Abe.

- Is Miranda around?

- No.

Was she expecting you?

Um, yeah. Uh, you know...

I probably got

the times mixed up.

I'm so sorry.

Do you know when she'll be back?

Uh, no. Not really,

I'm afraid.

That's okay.

Uh, I'll just wait in the car

if that's okay. Thanks.

[Car alarm chirps]

[Sighing]

[Panting]

Marie, what are you doing here?

Couldn't help myself.

I know how hard it is

for you to get things done,

and I didn't wanna see you get

in trouble with your dad.

Oh, Marie, really.

You didn't have to.

One thing, though.

Give up on the girl.

But, how did you know?

Please, Abe.

I wasn't born yesterday.

Forget about here.

She's too good for you.

You haven't got a shot.

[Door slamming]

Hey!

It's me, Abe.

What are you doing here?

We were supposed to, uh...

Oh, right. I'm sorry.

That's okay.

I got some reading done.

But, hey, uh,

I brought you some flowers.

Thanks.

Well, come inside, if you want.

Sure.

Mom? Dad?

[Woman] Hi.

I have a visitor.

Abe...

Abe Wertheimer.

So, can I get you something

to drink? Juice? Soda?

Uh, I will have

a diet coke if you have.

So sorry. I forgot

you were coming by. Really.

Oh, really. Don't worry about it. I

had some stuff to do in the area.

Really? What?

Uh, just some things

I had to check out, you know.

No. What?

Nothing interesting,

really. Work stuff.

Oh, okay.

Well, make yourself at home.

Um, sit down.

I'll be right back.

No problemo.

So what do you do for a living?

Got a company.

Work in real estate.

Property management,

commercial developments.

You mean, like all

those strip malls?

Mm-hmm.

Where there used to be parks

and mom-and-pop stores.

How'd you get into

that line of work?

My dad.

- You work for your dad?

- Yeah, but

he wouldn't have hired me

if I weren't up to the job.

He interviewed a lot

of people, so...

It's not like

it's nepotism or anything.

[Male on TV] That's inevitably causing

a buildup of the greenhouse gases.

Effectively, you can

say carbon dioxide

is about a third higher

in the atmosphere

than it was in pre-industrial

times, and it's just growing...

I really like the way you

named your dog "dog."

It's so ironic.

No, thanks.

I used to smoke.

It helps me relax.

Exactly. That's

why I smoked.

Then I started thinking

about cancer.

A friend of mine from high

school got testicular cancer.

Lost both his testicles.

Can never be a father now.

I mean, I guess he could adopt,

but it's not the same.

Not that I'm

anti-adoption.

[Sighing]

Sometimes, you know,

I feel like

I was born in the wrong time.

Like, if I was born

a hundred years ago,

I'd probably already be

married with five kids?

You could have a really
