Going The Distance Page #8
I missed you too, Dan.
I missed you so much.
- Dan.
Wait.
Just wait, wait, baby.
Wait a second, okay?
Okay. Can I be done waiting now?
- Listen, okay?
- What?
I just- I need a second.
I wanna look at your face.
And I've missed you.
Oh, my God, I've missed you too.
What is it? Something's wrong.
I am really, really getting tired of us
spending so much time apart.
I know. I know, but look,
we're here now, so-
Yeah.
And, um...
But there's a job.
What do you mean? What job?
Well, I interviewed
with the San Francisco Chronicle...
...and they offered me a job.
Wow.
That's great.
- Yeah.
- Are you gonna take it?
I don't know.
Oh. Man.
Wow.
What?
- Nothing.
- No, not "nothing. " What?
It's a little strange to me...
...because in one breath
you're telling me...
...that it's hard to be apart
and you're struggling with this.
And then in the next you're saying we
might be apart for a really long time.
No, I mean, I don't know yet, okay?
And my goaI is to be here with you.
But this is such a big opportunity for me
that we need to talk about it.
Yeah, let's talk about this huge bomb
you just laid on me.
F***, Erin, you didn't even tell me
you interviewed.
I didn't mean to keep it from you.
Well, you did.
What do you mean, you didn't mean to?
It's something you either do or you don't.
You make a choice.
You know, amazingly,
I'm not in the mood.
F***.
Erin, you know what?
Let's just go out. Let's just go out.
I don't know, I'm feeling sexy tonight,
you know what I'm saying?
I got a good feeling like I might be getting
laid by one of you ladies.
- Not it.
Not it.
Come on, Dan, just shoot pooI.
All right, okay. I'm just trying
to talk about how sexy I feeI.
I'm gonna go get another drink.
Well, if you need me
I'm right here
No matter what
I'm always near
Garrett.
- Hi.
- Hi.
What are you doing here?
Uh, Box invited me.
Of course.
- Do you wanna do a shot of Jger?
- Yes.
Hey, Christopher. Two.
This is so weird
to see you out of the off-
- You look great.
- Well, thanks.
Ahh. Thank you.
Hey. Um, I was just looking for you
because I wanted to- Hello.
- Hi.
Um...
Sorry, this is Erin, my, um...
GirI- Girlfriend.
This is Brianna, who I work with.
My friend.
It's so nice to finally meet you.
Garrett is always talking about you
and I hear your name all the time.
It's really nice to put a face to it.
- It's nice to meet you too.
Um...
So are you planning on moving out here
any time soon?
Ooh.
- Hell of a question.
- I don't know.
- I-
- She knows.
She got big news today that pertains
to that very question. Tell her.
Tell her your big news.
Tell her your big news.
Big news that I just found out about.
- No?
- It was nice to meet you.
- Yeah.
- Um...
I'm gonna go sleep at Brandy's
because it's obvious that you have-
I'm- Yeah, bye.
All right.
Here you go.
- Oh, good.
Well...
...cheers.
- Are you okay?
- Ha, ha. I am now.
Ha, ha.
- You have a lot of jingle jangles.
- Yeah, she does.
- Hi.
Hi.
- Garrett, introductions.
- This is Dan. This is Brianna.
- Hi.
- DanieI.
- Oh.
- DanieI von...
...Jgermeister.
Hello, DanieI.
I'm a very wealthy man.
Garrett, can you buy us some shots?
Ha-ha-ha.
- Come on, let's get a drink.
What the f***?
F***! F***! I don't know,
I don't know what I was thinking!
I got so drunk last night.
I'm sorry. I drank so much.
Ha-ha-ha. Hey.
Knock, knock, in there.
How you doing, huh?
Hey, last night, awesome.
Seriously, the best sex of my life, ever.
You wanna go for round two?
Do it again?
Dan, you threw up on me!
I did throw up on you.
I threw up on you a little bit
and I apologized...
...and I thought we were past that.
I was hoping we were.
You cried all night.
Crying is a part of feeling, all right?
Come on. You want some breakfast?
I'll cook you up some eggs.
I have a boyfriend.
That's not a problem for me.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
I should've just told you
about the interview, about everything.
You know, no matter what.
No.
You know, we'll figure it out.
We'll just figure it out.
I know that you keep saying
that we're gonna figure it out...
...but we haven't.
But we will.
But we haven't and we need
to make a decision right away.
Okay, well, uh...
Yeah, I know. Make a decision, then.
Why is this all on me?
What are you talking about, "why you"?
Your decision.
So it's all about whether
I move to New York?
What about you moving
to San Francisco?
You kidding? I've been calling music labels
there for the last month...
...every day, diligently.
I called a labeI that turned out
to be a kid...
...who's collecting demos from his friends.
He didn't want to hire me.
There's nothing. There are no jobs.
Trust me, I called them all.
I love that you're fine with me
moving to New York and waiting tables...
...but you wouldn't even think about
serving coffee in f***ing San Francisco.
- It's all about what's convenient for you.
- Wait.
And you hate your job.
Fine, I'll just make the decision
for both of us.
You can just totally leave it all on me.
I got it.
Look at me, oh, look at me
Is this the way I'll always be?
Oh, no, oh, no
Jesus, Harper.
Maybe be a little more subtle?
I'm checking out their packages.
They want you to look.
Oh, that's gross.
- It's not gross, actually. Strangely.
- Um, hello?
Hey, Erin. What are you doing?
- Hello?
- I can't hear you.
- Where are you?
- Huh?
- Where are you?
- Oh!
I'm at, like, this sketchy club.
It's girls' night out.
Oh, fun.
I can't hear you.
- Go outside.
- Hold on.
You guys save mine.
I gotta go outside and talk to Garrett.
He's an a**hole.
Tell him to move here already.
Hey, Garrett.
- It's Harper. How you doing?
- Hey, Harper.
Look, Erin can't come to the phone...
...because she's gonna meet a guy
who lives here and respects her...
...and she's gonna make out with him
and have his baby.
What?
I'm sorry.
You know, I shouldn't drink tequila.
Yeah, I know. It's okay.
No, it's just- You know Harper,
she's out of her f***ing mind.
- Why was she saying all that stuff?
- Look, don't worry about it, okay?
I told her about the fight, you know?
I had to, I'm sorry. I'm a f***ing girI,
that's what we do. We talk it out.
- Right.
- Do you get it?
Sure, I've seen Moesha.
CooI. Okay, what's going on with you?
Hey, listen. I know you're on a deadline
to make a decision about this Chronicle job.
I know that, and you were right, by
the way. You should not be in this alone.
I wanna help you
and we're in this together, right?
But that being said,
I gotta be honest with you.
I want you in New York.
But not just you in New York, I want you
and me in New York living together.
a place that you love.
A place that we can make our own...
...where we can put Tom Cruise
all over the walls...
...and get Tom Cruise bed sheets
and Tom Cruise toilet paper.
Or we could buy our own Centipede
