Seven Girlfriends Page #5

- Bewitching?

- You heard me.

- You do, you look beautiful.

(blows nose)

And I love you.

- He actually says it.

(groans)

My cold.

- [Jesse] Hey.

I'll risk it.

(sneezes)

Ah!

- [Anabeth] (sighs) Sorry.

- Laura?

Hmm.

Hey, it's me.

I guess I missed you again.

Um, it's Saturday, you're

not at work are you?

Oh well.

Uh, I'm thinking about you.

And it's morning, so I'm thinking

about you in the morning.

And, uh, I should stop.

I'm really gonna get

myself in trouble here.

But, I can't stop thinking

about things, you know?

Like that little ooo

sound you used to make

when I roll over and let my fingertips

brush the top of your ass.

Oh!

Or the look on your face when

I'd roll over on top of you

and just slide ride in.

Ah, sh*t, Jesus Christ you scared me.

- Morning.

- Your car wasn't here.

- Actually it is, it's

just hard to see from here.

(laughs)

- I can explain.

- Oh no.

Don't explain.

It's none of my business.

- No, it's not what it

sounded like, really.

- No?

- No.

Well it is.

A little bit it is.

You have to know that is not me.

I am nothing, normally, nothing like that.

I, I'm, I think I should go.

Thank you.

(jazzy dance music)

- [Anabeth] Where are you going?

- I'm gonna take the Sunset Highway.

- [Anabeth] Why?

- Something I want you to see.

- What are you talking

about, we don't have time.

- We got time.

- [Anabeth] No, no, I don't wanna be late.

- It's not gonna take that long.

- Jesse, just turn around.

- [Jesse] Just relax.

- No, it's my mother.

You know how she gets when we're late.

- Trust me.

- Jesse, just go back.

- [Jesse] Just calm down, calm down.

- I'm not the one being unreasonable here.

- Calm down.

- What?

Jesse.

Don't screw up my funeral.

- How would I do that?

- [Anabeth] (scoffs) You're the expert.

(doorbell rings)

- [Jesse] Hi.

I'm here for Martha.

She knows I'm coming.

My name's Jesse.

- Jesse?

You're Jesse?

Well come on in.

- [Voiceover] Oh, baby's gonna love these.

- Hey everybody.

This is Jesse.

(all laughing)

- Oh my God.

I can't believe you're here.

You look like sh*t.

Doesn't he look like sh*t?

- [Voiceover] The elevation's better.

- Tape, go get the tapes.

- [Ladies] Tape, tape, tape, tape, tape.

- [Jesse] Hey, it's a

voice from your past.

It's Jesse.

Listen, um, I'm gonna

be in your neighborhood

on Friday or Saturday.

And uh, I'd like to stop in and see you.

If that's not okay for any reason,

gimme a call at 801-555-0133.

Otherwise, I'll see ya then.

Oh, um--

- Oh, this is classic.

- [Jesse] I hear you don't have any um,

man in your life.

(women laughing)

- [Voiceover] You heard right.

(women cheering and applauding)

- [Voiceover] Whoo hoo!

- Do you wanna stay? (laughs)

- Sure.

Yeah, I'll just stand in the corner

and light myself on fire.

- Oh come on.

Come on.

Stay, enjoy the party.

It'll keep us from talking about you

- Oh, no it won't.

Hi, I'm Naomi.

We uh, we weren't expecting

you 'til tomorrow.

- [Jesse] I'm thinking about you.

- Well, you better sit down.

- [Jesse] And um,

it's morning, so I'm thinking about

you in the morning.

And uh, I should stop.

I'm really gonna get

myself in trouble here,

but uh, I can't stop thinking

about things, you know?

Like, that little ooo sound

- [Ladies] Joan! Joan!

- [Jesse] you used to make

- [Ladies] Joan! Joan!

- [Jesse] when I roll over

- [Ladies] Joan! Joan!

and let my fingertips

brush the top of your ass.

- [All] Oh!

(laughing)

- [Jesse] The look on your

face when I'd roll over

on top of you and just slide right in

(clatter)

Ah, sh*t Jesus.

God you scared me.

- [Laura] Morning.

- [Jesse] Uh your car wasn't here.

- [Laura] Well actually it is.

Just hard to see from here.

(ladies laughing)

- [Jesse] Uh, I can explain.

I didn't turn off the phone.

- [Laura] Oh no,

don't explain, it's none of my business.

- [Jesse] No, it's really

not what it sounded like.

- [Women] No?

- [Jesse] No, well it is.

A little bit is.

But you need to know,

- [Jesse And Women] that is not me.

I am nothing, normally, nothing like that.

I'm, I should go.

(laughing and applauding)

- [Roman] This is wrong.

- [Hannah] I'm only taking what's mine.

- Let's see, we began this afternoon

with the words, Roman

let's do anything today

but talk about Jesse.

- [Hannah] Dammit.

- And what better place

to not talk about Jesse,

but Jesse's house.

- I am perfectly within my rights.

- In many fascist countries, yes.

(alarm beeps)

- Yes!

(playful Italian inspired music)

- Somebody had a bad night.

- Start with this.

- (exclaims) I gave him that frame.

- [Hannah] I don't want the frame.

- Thank you.

So, anything new in your life?

- Oh (laughs) same old stuff.

- I was so in love with you.

- I know.

- You broke my heart in a million pieces.

- Sorry about that.

- Ah, what is this?

What is this food?

Didn't I teach you anything?

- What?

Hey everybody!

Jesse doesn't like the way lesbians cook.

- [Women] What?

- That is not what I said.

- So, he's going to cook for us.

- [Women] Alright!

- Alright, I can handle this.

- But, you are not

allowed to use the oven.

(women laughing)

- I worship you.

- [Martha] You're welcome.

- Alright.

Anybody here have any

dietary restrictions?

- Oh me!

- Right here.

- No dairy.

(gentle music)

- (chuckles) Unbelievable.

Ship captain.

- Umm, it's too bad he can't use the oven.

I still have all these really great

pots and pans that he gave me.

- That I gave you?

Did I give bad gifts?

- You gave me cooking equipment.

Which one of us cooks for a living?

- Which one of us owns a

restaurant for a living?

- Would you leave that alone please?

- He cooks, she owns a restaurant.

It sounds like a good match.

So what's the problem?

- I don't know.

I mean, you know how hard

it is to be a couple.

Moonlight is shining

I want to call you

Then so we could

- Jesse.

Go walking

- Forget about Hannah.

What?

- [Roman] For your thoughts.

- He never let go of her.

- Objects in the rear view mirror

may appear closer than they actually are.

How 'bout a chance to redeem myself?

(cell phone rings)

- Hello?

- Hey, it's me.

- Jess?

Jesse.

(playful music)

Are you alright?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

Where are you, I called you at home.

- Um, I'm at Macy's.

Where are you?

- I'm at a lesbian baby shower.

(Hannah laughs)

Yeah, I'm in Boise.

Martha and Naomi are having a baby.

- [Hannah] Oh, who's the father?

- They are.

- I miss you.

- I miss you.

- I miss you too.

(cuckoo clock chimes)

(gasps)

- Where are you?

- Macy's, they're having

an all night clock sale

and I thought I'd buy one.

- Uh, Hannah listen.

About the proposal.

You were right.

I managed to turn something

that's supposed to be special

and happy into something selfish.

- One more time.

I think I lost the connection.

- Where are you?

What I'm trying to say

is, I behaved like a jerk.

And I wish you were here so
