If you found out that,

that Charles had an affair,

would you forgive him?

I don't know.

Yeah, probably.

Then why would knowing

about it matter at all?

Because if I know about it, then, um...

at least I have a choice.

Or else, otherwise I just

feel like I'm a chump.

I know where we can take the hardware.

Where?

can you take this?

It's dripping on my ram.

I need a little help right now.

Why do you think he's having an affair?

Because he's just such a sh*t

me unless he's drunk

I just thought that

the whole, like,

the whole being in love part,

like, the whole, like, messy,

like, connected,together part,

that part would kind of just

keep going a little bit more.

I don't know.

I look at my girlfriends and they're not

All blissed out all day long

Sometimes they look

happy but most of the time

they look disappointed

But I do think that you

are looking desperate

Desperate is ugly.

Nobody loves desperate.

Right.

Right?

Right. Okay. But just

listen, just quickly...

He sent me this text,

he wants to see me

tonight, look at this.

hate texting, it's too short.
