Don't look.

I'm not, I'm not...

Okay, step, step...

Open.

What?

Where did you...

How did you...

Do you like it?

Are you kidding me?

I love it.

Thank you.

I've got to

try it out right now.

Try it.

I am.

This is perfect.

I can't believe

you got me another

record player.

Can you hear that?

You don't just

hear the music.

You can hear

their heartbeats.

Spencer, I...

Yes... yes.

Okay.

Laura?

Hello?

She went to

the cafe for lunch.

She's been working

very hard this morning,

she deserved it.

Well, great, thanks.

I hope that everything's

okay at the house?

Yeah, everything is...

It's great.

I really am sorry

about the mix-up,

with the bookings.

Are you kidding me?

This has been

one of the best things

that has ever

happened to me.

-Hey!

-Hi!

I'm not bothering you, am I?

No. no, no,

of course not.

But what's wrong?

Nothing.

Everything is very right.

I'm done.

"The Chemistry of Love"

is complete.

What?

Spencer,

that is fantastic.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Thank you, yeah.

I couldn't have gotten here

without your help.

You're just

being nice.

Well, you are going

to be paying

for the champagne, so...

Okay, I can do that.

Hey!

Laura, right?

Right.

We're sitting at the patio,

and I thought that was you.

Remember me?

Tyler! Friend

of Kenny and Rose's.

Tyler.

Spencer.

Nice to meet you...

Hey, so did you finally

get rid of that cat guy?

Cat guy?

Yeah, remember?

You were going to do

the baby shower thing.

It was great seeing you, Tyler.

Yeah.

Maybe we can

get a drink sometime?

Nice to meet you, Sandy.

It's not even...

I promise you,

Spencer, it's...

Gosh.

Spencer... Spencer!

Spencer!

Spencer, wait!

The baby shower

was a setup.

You did it deliberately

to mess with me.

Why?

Because...

Because you wanted me out?

No, I thought

you hated me.

Hated you?

No.

I don't hate you. I...

I never did.

I just, it was something

that I told myself.

Why?

So I wouldn't do this.

Spencer, we shouldn't...

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

[Needle hiss

hi, Frank!

I brought you a treat.

Yeah?

Spencer?

You home?

It's cold out here.

You want a blanket

or something?

Yeah.

Thanks.

You make this look

a lot easier than it is.

I can hardly

get the marshmallow

to stay on the stick.

Well, it comes

with practice.

Here.

I still can't believe

you never did this as a kid.

I told you,

my parents didn't exactly

do things by the book.

I guess that's why I am

the way that I am.

It's not so bad,

the way you are.

My mom and dad,

they traveled a lot,

for work.

They were

in the peace corps.

I didn't get to see them

that often,

but they were always

laughing and smiling,

and having all kinds of fun.

They must really

enjoy their lives.

They really did.

When I was about 12,

my mom, she got pretty sick.

It all happened pretty fast,

and then...

She was gone.

I'm sorry.

It was like

someone turned off a light

inside of my dad

and I just watched him

fade away over the years,

and then...

Then he was gone, too.

Spencer...

The doctors,

they said he had

a weak heart, but...

I just think that it was broken.

Is that why you did this?

"The Chemistry of Love."

Yeah.

I just thought

if I could find

some rational,

biological reason

behind the feelings of love,

and loss, and...

It might not happen again?

Yeah.

And then I met you,

and then for the first time,

I realized it's not just

a series of chemical reactions.

It's something so much more,

and it's real.

Great.

Just great.

I mean, there's

more marshmallows...

No, it's not about

the marshmallows, Spencer.

I don't like commitment, okay?

Whenever somebody

gets too serious,

I take a hike.

And you know why?

Why?

My parents.

They're divorced?

No, are you kidding?

They've been married

for 30 years.

I'm sorry, I don't

think I understand...

No, do you realize

the kind of pressure

that that puts on me?

Yeah, you don't want

to become your parents...

No...

It's not that I don't

want to become them,

it's that I don't think

that I can live up to them.

I'm afraid to even try.

Till you.

Laura...

You have a commitment,

you have a girlfriend,

and I won't be the person

to come in between

you and Susan.

I won't.

Goodnight.

Do you want

a piece of advice, Frank?

Never fall in love

with someone

that has a girlfriend.

What?

Fi made a mistake.

I admit it, okay?

Are you just going

to sit there

judging me all night?

What if I get you tuna?

Okay, now you can judge me.

Frank, I'm up, I'm up,

I'm up...

Spencer!

You sleep in?

Well, you snooze, you lose.

Goodbye.

Good...

Goodbye.

Goodbyes are hard.

Goodbyes are...

Goodbyes are not easy, and...

I don't like saying goodbyes,

but I wanted you to know

that I will always remember

our time here together

at this... at this house?

I just want you to know

that you've changed my life.

I want you to know that...

I don't want to say goodbye.

To who, Spencer?

Susan?

Hi!

Susan!

I rang, but no one answered.

Who were you talking to?

Nobody.

Myself.

I was working

on my presentation.

So good to see you.

What are you doing here?

I called you last night.

Didn't you get my message?

No...

I'm sorry,

I must have been sleeping.

I...

Well, that would explain

why you weren't

at the train station.

I hadn't heard from you

in two days,

and I was starting to worry

that something was wrong.

I thought I'd...

Come and see

how things were going.

Everything is...

They're going great.

I finished it.

That's so amazing!

Thank you.

Congratulations, Spencer.

That means we can spend

some time together.

This place

is really lovely.

Where are you going?

I was going to go look around,

is that okay?

Of course.

Of course, it is, yes.

It's just

a bit of a mess in there.

I'm sure I've seen worse.

Spencer,

I'm, surprised

you like this place.

It's not really you.

At all.

Stay.

Stay... in here

and just relax.

I'm going to go get Mozart.

Just, she missed you,

a lot.

Okay.

Laura!

Laura!

Where are you?

Laura!

Really?

Hello, Mozart.

Spencer, she's down here!

It looks like your daddy

has been a very bad boy.

Pizza, Spencer? Really?

Hello.

And who are you?

Laura!

Laura, stay in there,

don't come out.

Do not come out.

Spencer?

There's a dog in the house.

Yes, the dog.

What's it doing in here?

Whose is it?

All yours!

It's a funny story,

really, it...

I'm so sorry,

Spencer.

I tried to explain

the mix-up, but...

It's my fault.

I should have told her

from the beginning.

Why didn't you?

I don't know, I...

I guess I just

probably didn't want

to admit it to myself.

Anyway,...

It's been a very

interesting two weeks.

I'll never forget...

You.

Come on, Frank.

Say goodbye, Frank.

Well, we're just

going to make it.

Hey, I didn't have breakfast,

I'm just going to grab

something real quick.

Pizza? Seriously?

What? I'm hungry?

Come on.

Come on, Frank.

Let's go.

So anyway,

we finished the run,
