Kilimanjaro Page #3

---

And i want to schedule a time that's convenient

to take off in either july or august.

I have some exact dates i could...

- How 'bout september?

Uh, sorry. My friend can't do september.

Well, i can't have you out in august,

and Ken's already taking time in july.

No, i spoke to Ken,

and our dates wouldn't overlap.

But you'd be out back-To-Back.

Why doesn't your friend just do september?

Well, his job... he has to take his

vacation before then.

Well...

I... I don't know what you're supposed to do.

Maybe talk to Ken about changing his trip?

I don't know, Doug.

Bill... i haven't asked for an

extended vacation in over three years,

And i'll work overtime to make sure Ken

has everything he needs while i'm away.

Stop.

Doug, you can't turn Ken into

you.

You're the lead guy here.

You're the one i depend on.

Well, thank you. I appreciate that.

I need you to be the point person

on the Javits thing, okay?

I don't even want Ken

talking to those people.

Well, i understand that,

but this trip is very important to me.

I don't know how it could work.

Well, i-I was thinking maybe...

Yeah?

No, i'm not doing anything.

Can you shut the door?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, that's a lot of money.

Ay, yi, yi. Sorry.

- Mm, fine.

My mom keeps asking me if i've

seen you.

We're discussing our differences.

I told her we were having dinner tonight.

Actually, i said you were making dinner.

and she joked that my dad hasn't

made her dinner in like 30 years.

Well, i'm on a budget.

Well, anyway, she's convinced that i've let

the best thing that ever happened to me slip through my fingers.

My parents say the same thing.

But in your case, they're right.

- Ha.

Oh. Mitch.

- Take it.

Oh, I have dinner. I call him later.

Oh, i just want to make sure it's still

okay for you to cover part of the rent.

Um, well, i feel like i need to help out Cara

a little bit. I mean, i'm living on her couch,

And, um, i'm sorry.

I just... i need to give her something.

Well, if you can't, you can't.

Thanks. I-I know it's not what we agreed.

How's work? How's Bill?

Bill's, um, Bill.

How's school?

- It's Okay.

Did you get your classroom

placement?

Yeah, Staten Island.

Yeah. It's not that bad.

Yeah, it's a borough.

Yeah.

Oh. Um...

i'll be right back, okay?

- Okay.

Hi.

Hey.

- Hey, man.

You get my message? -No.

I found tickets in august for $1.680.

Boom!

Awesome.

You know, i'll talk to Bill tomorrow.

What do you mean, tomorrow?

I ordered them.

I couldnt'tlet that price go.

Why didn't you talk to him today?

- It just wasn't a good time.

Whatever.

I mean, you're quitting there anyway, right?

No, i'm not quitting.

- You said you were going to. All right.

At least we got the tickets.

- Well, i was gonna put them on my credit card.

All right. Well, now you can pay me.

- O-Okay. Well...

Do you not have $1.600 in your checking account?

- I have the money.

I'll just write you a check.

- There's no hurry, so you can just pay me after.

All right. Well, thanks. I appreciate that.

I can't believe i found them so cheap.

That's awesome. All right. Um, i got to go.

Oh, you're busy? Tell her i said hello.

Mm. Mitch?

Yeah.

- I talked to him a couple weeks ago.

I heard. Yeah.

He told me that you were seeing a 19-year-old,

a model... that he set you guys up.

She was 20.

- Very funny.

Yeah. We didn't have that much in common.

It wasn't really working out.

You know, she didn't like to read.

- Did she know how to read?

It really wouldn't surprise me. I mean, we

break up, and then, suddenly, you're like a

Mountain-Climbing stud.

- Well, i haven't climbed any mountains yet.

So, technically, you're still just a stud?

- Yeah, exactly.

I'm really glad that we're having dinner.

It's weird, right?

Weird why?

- Not having dinner every night.

Not talking all the time, and, um, you know,

i just... there are nice things about it.

I'm sure you think so, too.

It's just a big change.

I mean, uh, at least

you have the apartment.

Are you mad at me?

No.

- Really? -Why would i be mad at you?

I don't know.

I mean, for breaking up with you.

We broke up.

For not giving you

more money for the rent and...

I'm not mad. I'm not.

- Okay.

Here. You have something in your hair.

Oh, thank you.

What happened?

- I was just saying you better show up on crutches.

I put the revised pages

from Gene Christopher on your desk.

- Thanks.

I need you to proof them and get them back

to him today if that's still possible.

No problem.

Are you okay?

- Yeah.

I have an appointment with

a specialist this afternoon.

Gene really needs those today.

I told him you'd be all over it.

Got it.

Yeah.

Ken, can you come in here?

- Da.

Yeah. He's really booked.

Yeah, i don't... i don't know.

Why don't i have the doctor call you back?

- Uh, hi.

I'm here to see dr. Patel.

Hi!

- Hi. You work here. -I do.

How are you?

- Uh, i'm... i'm good. How are... how are you?

Well, i've been better.

- Oh, my gosh. Yeah, i'll bet.

Um, i don't mean to laugh at your ailment.

- No, it's fine.

Why don't you take a seat and

i'll get you the forms?

Okay.

- Okay.

I'm planning... i'm hoping...

to climb Kilimanjaro this summer

with a friend of mine, so...

Cool. Kilimanjaro? K2?

Damn.

Sh*t. I have to answer that.

Uh, just... aah. I just

can't believe how crazy!

I mean, it's so f***ing funny

running into you again, right?

Ahh.

Lift your leg a little bit up...

a little bit up. I know it's going to hurt.

Yeah, i see the swelling there.

- Well, i'm hoping to climb mount Kilimanjaro this summer,

Is that out of the question?

- When is your trip? -My trip's in august.

Are you still gonna be... wait.

Okay. Okay, great.

Tuesday at 3:
30.

Okay, bye. Okay.

What did he say?

- He said i'm supposed to take it easy for two weeks

and see and see how i start

to recover, so

You'll be fine. Just stick to

low-Impact training, like swimming.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

- Does your gym have a pool? -No.

Um, there's this place in my old neighborhood

that i actually still belong to,

and they have a really nice pool.

I could get you in as

a guest if you wanted to check it out.

Uh, that'd be great.

- Yeah.

I mean, i can't tonight, but...

What are you doing tomorrow?

- Nothing. -Oh, okay.

Yeah? Okay. Okay.

- Dr. Patel's office. Yes. Can you hold, please?

Um, why don't you just, uh, write your

information down there and we'll make a plan,

Okay? Yes.

Phase 2 begins, okay?

Good to see you.

Hey.

Where's Douglas?

- Uh, Doug... Douglas... is running a little late.

He'll be here like five minutes, tops.

He... he saw a doctor today.

Said there was no question that he

should be able to do the trek, so...

That's not exactly what he said.

Well, yeah. I don't know the exact

medical terminology, obviously,

but that was the gist of it.

Uh, Douglas, we have a refund policy.

Let me get you the info, okay?

Okay.

- Are you serious?

Let's just see what he has to say.
