newsflash he's hurt because he

likes you, he loves you.

For Christ sakes,

don't you love him?

Hold that, I'm not giving it.

[running]

Wait Daniel, don't go,

don't go, please!

I want you to stay.

I love you.

I love you.

Too late Rusty, l

don't think you care,

I don't think you can care.

I can!

I do care!

Come on, I don't want you to go.

Well I'm not sure

that I want to stay.

I want you to stay.

That's not enough.

I want you to want

to stay then.

Say that again.

I want you to want

to stay with me.

Come on, come back

inside, come on don't go.

Come on.

I don't think I'm right for you.

You're wrong, you

are right for me.

You're perfect the way you

are, you don't need fixing up.

Yeah, but why now?

Huh?

Rusty you've been pushing me

away for so long that I'm not

going to go back to

the way things were.

Because I'm

learning what love is.

I know that I liked houses

because they can't reject me,

and I know that

sex isn't love

but it can be a

handy substitute.

And I know that love isn't love

unless it's returned to you and

I know that you love me.

And I love you.

That's why l

don't want you to go.

Come on.

Come on, come back

inside, come on.

Come on, you don't

really want to go do you?

ls this too corny

cause I kind of like it?

I love it.

You want to go back

to my place?

Yeah.

I'm starting to like

the tropical too.

Really?

No.

[laughter]

Good.

Good?

I just made a deal with

Mr. Howell over a martini.

lf I design a pool

house for his daughter,

I get a quarter acre

off of Mulholland.

A house?

For us.

So this is like a

lesbian moment right?

Definitely,

right, get the U-Haul.

So you want to get married?

Well, okay.

lf that's how you feel.

This is how I feel.

Where do you want to do it?

I don't know.

Wherever it's legal this week.

I'll look into it.

I'm not sure.

Just as long as it's this week.

No more premarital sex.

Yeah, I don't

know about that one.

Good.

I love you.

[music]
