Laggies Page #8

I think we're gonna have to

paste in the Caribbean behind us

so our parents think we went further

away and couldn't invite them.

Who's that?

- I don't know. I got it.

- All right.

Hey-o.

Misty.

Uh, what are you doing here?

Well, I brought the stuff you

left behind from the crash.

- Here.

- Oh, thanks.

Oh, and by the way,

Patrick's dad wants you to pay

for his car repairs out of pocket.

Out of...

Nobody does that unless it's a scratch.

Yeah, well, he's a dick.

Oh, my God.

Anywho, um...

I'm also here to tell you

that you need to come to prom.

- Misty, I can't.

- I know.

You and Annika are having

a lot of issues right now.

But if you stop being

friends after this,

she's gonna become, like,

secretly tortured about it.

That's how she is.

I know she looks up to you.

That trip you got her to

take to her mom's was huge.

And all this time you've been

spending with us fucknuts.

- Hey.

- Hi.

Who's this?

Uh, I'm Misty.

- Hi, Misty.

- Yeah.

Megan's been mentoring me.

Right. At the seminar, she

was in the junior program.

- The junior program.

- Oh, wow, that's cool.

What was your animal?

I'm my own animal.

Ah.

Right. I like that. I respect that.

- Okay. Nice meeting you.

- Yeah, you too.

He's cute.

Thanks.

Well, we bought you a

ticket as Patrick's date.

Just come.

Attention, passengers.

Flight 514 has begun general

boarding to Las Vegas.

Please, line up to the

right of the podium...

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Here we go.

Okay. Wait. Hold on a second. I

know it's going to be bad quality.

- But I need to capture this moment.

- Right.

Of course. Of course.

All right. Just gonna

send this to the group.

They're over at the soft

open for the restaurant.

We've got to celebrate with

those guys as soon as we get back.

Why do you need to do that?

I'm not gonna send it to our parents.

I know that's a whole

other conversation.

And... Done.

Why did you need to do that?

Well, I figured 'cause

they can't be here,

it's our way of bringing them into it.

Oh, look, Allison already wrote back.

Oh, my God. I can't do this.

What? Oh, are you thinking...

You're thinking we need

to have a real wedding.

I know, and you know what?

That would actually make

me a whole lot more happy.

No. No, I mean that

we can't be together.

- Wait, what?

- Oh, my God...

Oh, my God, I think...

I think I might throw up

that I'm finally doing this.

Doing what? What are you doing?

Okay...

Um...

How am I gonna explain

this to you, right?

Right, the animal thing,

right? The animal thing, okay.

God, Anthony. That

could never be my speed.

But... But if it helps you to

understand what I'm trying to say to you,

then".

Anth, I'm a snake.

I'm a snake that's been dragging

my old skin around with me

for way too long. I'm a snake.

- No, you're not.

- No, no.

You have to see this about me.

I'm dropping out. I'm

dropping out of the group.

Okay, I mean, that's

okay, 'cause that's them,

and you can just cut down on

the amount of time you

hang out with them...

- 'Cause that's just them. That's not us.

- No.

No, you're still part of the group.

You and me, we're...

We're somewhere back there.

You know, we're in the past.

Holy sh*t, Meg.

All this time?

No, no, God, no.

- Not all of it.

- Well, however long.

Holy sh*t.

This is it.

Yeah.

This is what it comes down to.

Yeah.

Waking up in the morning,

and never being able to see your face...

Ever again.

No, we can still be

in each other's lives.

No, we can still...

We can still talk?

Yeah.

Yeah, right.

Sure.

Hey.

Hey. You came.

The smoky eye looks great.

Thanks.

Okay, what I did to your

dad was wrong. But...

I just really, really fell for him.

Annika...

I broke it off with my boyfriend.

Yeah, well...

I guess I know what it's

like to forget yourself

when you really, really like someone.

Okay, I'm gonna tell you two things

that I've gotten some perspective on

after being out of high

school for a while now.

The first is that a lot of

the math they're teaching you

that they swear you'll use

in your life, you won't.

You're never going to

need to use parabolas

and you really, really

don't need to know shapes

that have more than eight f***ing sides.

The second...

The second,

which I've only got some perspective

on recently, but it's this.

You can't keep putting aside what

you want for some imaginary future.

You've just got to suck

it up and go with your gut.

All right, guys. This is it.

This is the last song of your prom.

Make it good.

You gonna sit here?

All right.

F*** it. I'm gonna do it.

Good.

Hey.

Um...

I wanted to tell you, um,

I have serious feelings for you.

And I would like to cut in.

And also...

Junior, I'd like to be your girlfriend.

So you're saying that you

want to try and be together?

Yeah.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.

So...

Did you hear the one

about the grown woman

who fell in love with the

really pissed off lawyer?

Is it funny?

It's really funny.

Come here.

Close the door.
