-Nice meeting you.
Here, they already saw me.
I'm sorry.
-Who was she?
-Just somebody I know.
That was obvious.
-You want to stay?
-You tell me.
I'll take you home.
Who do you think you are?
Do you think
you're the only one walking here...
or the only one trying to get someplace?
-Talk to me! You goddamn owe me!
-Owe you? I don't owe you anything.
-Yes, you do.
-Why is that?
Because I love you.
Because you love me?
How the hell can you love me?
Like I met you. I crashed into it.
-Toby, you don't even know me.
-Who knows anybody?
What, is there a manual
I'm supposed to read on you?
Or can't I just figure it out as I go along?
-I wish it was that simple--
-It is that simple.
Not here!
-It isn't that simple here.
-I see.
I'm just some stupid Jersey girl
in some stupid dress, right?
Laugh with your friends
at what an idiot I am!
You're right, I am stupid.
My father bought me this dress
especially for tonight.
I had a dress. A simple, black dress.
But I thought it was more important
not to hurt his feelings...
than it was to impress you.
God, I guess I was wrong, right?
I don't know who I feel sorrier for:
you or me.
Get me out of here, okay?
I don't care where we go. Just get....
-What?
-I'm sorry.
Jersey feels so far away.
It's after 1 :
00.Are you hungry?
No, are you?
I'm starving.
-I guess I could eat if you could eat.
-Okay.
Let's get up.
No, I don't want to.
-You're very happy where you are?
-Yes, I am.
I see.
Are you happy with this?
I'm up!
You know, Sal, I got to tell you something.
This place looks like a hotel.
I mean, it's beautiful and everything,
but there's nothing personal.
Where are your family pictures?
Where are the souvenirs from the vacations?
-There's nothing of you here.
-I love you in my shirt.
What about family,
your mother, your father?
Yeah, I had one of each.
Really, you did? We usually do.
Where are they?
My dad, he....
He cut loose when I was about 10.
And a new guy took his place.
And I left when I was 14.
What about your mother?
Don't you see her?
Dolores?
I last saw her about four years ago.
She was in-between husbands...
and she needed some money.
What about you?
-What about me?
-Tell me about your parents.
Can we talk about your father
for just a second?
A little bit protective.
I think they loved each other,
but kind of in a sad way.
Sad? Why?
They always told each other
that they were lucky...
if a hammer didn't fall on them.
That's the most their lives were.
Nothing too awful happening.
And they were grateful for that.
But were they happy?
Yeah, very.
Then maybe that's all that matters.
-All right, I'll call you tomorrow.
-Okay.
-What time do you get up?
-Early.
Go.
I forgot to tell you
how beautiful you look in that dress.
-Did you come?
-What kind of question is that to ask?
Come on, Tobe.
I never do the first time I'm with a guy.
-And Dot, she never does.
-Shut up.
-It's true.
-It doesn't have to be public knowledge.
-So when can we meet him?
-Soon.
So, videos tonight, right?
Dot, get a comedy.
No more of this depresso bullshit.
-You don't like my wedding video?
-Yeah, it's as funny as a heart attack.
Fluorescent satin, cloth and foil.
I need three shipments of this.
I gotta call you back.
I'll call you back in 10 minutes.
Rosie, hold all my calls.
I don't have a white flag,
but will white lace do?
What, are you slumming again?
Or are you just bored with your people?
You're still mad.
Technically, I'm the one who should be mad.
I started a fight, you started an affair.
What is she? A girl
from the old neighborhood or something?
Or something.
You want to explain Kenneth?
Kenneth is a buyer from England
But I'm happy to see you were jealous.
What's this?
That's Carlos.
It's cute, but it's not very you.
Rosie, could you please
find a home for this?
-I'll take it. I need a pet.
-Thank you.
I understand distractions, Sal.
Until I met you,
that's all the men in my life were to me.
So I forgive you for what's-her-name.
-Tony.
-Toby.
Toby, yes.
It's really a hard name to remember.
I don't want you to remember it.
And I don't want to remember it.
You are so past something like her now.
Don't go backwards.
I know where you've come from,
and I know where you wanna go.
And I can help you get there.
I love you, Sal.
The door's open. Come on in.
Oh, my God, Sal. Hi.
How you doing? What are you doing here?
This is such a great surprise.
You want something to eat?
-I'll get you something to drink.
-No.
So what are you doing here?
Listen, Toby, we gotta talk about something.
Can you believe she won't let us meet him?
I know. What does she think we'll do?
Lift our legs and pee on him?
I don't know how to say this to you.
Just say it.
We can't see each other anymore.
-Why not?
-'Cause I need something different.
"Something"? What's "something"?
Toby, we come from different worlds.
What, Queens and Jersey are so different?
What's so different?
You gotta understand.
I can't go backwards. I can't.
I worked too hard to get where I am.
And I'm gonna hold you back? Is that it?
She's in here.
Aren't you gonna introduce us?
-Sal, these are my....
-Friends.
"Friends" is the word she was looking for.
We're her Jersey friends.
You know Jersey,
-No, Sal, you stay. They are going.
Outside now. Cookie, right now!
-What were you doing up there?
-I don't like him, okay?
How do you know?
You don't even know him.
No, but I know you,
and you are no longer you.
What is that supposed to mean?
That means, "I drink Corona now.
Hoops are out, diamonds are in."
Does that sound stupidly familiar?
Tell her what it means, Ange!
It means that if we didn't know you before,
we probably wouldn't like you now.
Why? Because I don't hang out
at the diner? Is that why?
It's because you look down on us, like
the city girls do. You're not from New York.
You're just a Jersey girl
trying to act like she's not.
Fine! Stay in your halter-tops!
And your purple eye shadow,
and your pink nails!
Stay in Jersey, because I don't give a f***!
-Don't you like being with me?
-Yes.
-Oh, God.
-Don't you like kissing me?
I love kissing you.
-I can't do this.
-Do what?
Toby, I don't wanna hurt you.
You know, I never wanted to hurt you.
-I just need more.
-But I can give you more.
Yeah, but I can't.
You understand?
I know where you are, I do.
I'm just not there anymore.
Don't.
God.
You owe more.
-Get out of here. You ate half my food.
-You ordered it.
Can I get a cheeseburger
and French fries to go, please?
We are not talking to her
unless she talks to us first.
What's the matter?
He doesn't feed you caviar for dinner?
Doesn't that make you guys happy?
-What, did he blow you off?
-Yeah, he did.
Why don't you buy yourselves
