The Rebound Page #5

They are there for your safety

you will obey them, is that clear?

Maverick!

Yes, sir, very clear.

I guess we ...

I. ..

was just a little over enthusiastic.

I guess you were...

Platoon!

Platoon!

Hey, oh bro, I'm so glad you made it.

I made it... I'm here.

..saw the whole thing.

Even your part.

Was that Top Gun? --You know it was.

We thought you were really great.

I loved your postmodern take on the whole thing

and it was creative how you acknowleged how derimitive it was.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

I told you guys...

I told you people would get it.

You gotta go party with us.

I guess in a tree house.

Outdoor shower.

Refrigerator --In a refrigerator?

All over it.

In the display case of the coffee shop where I work.

Don't do that..

The craziest place

I have to say...

on the surfboard, in the ocean.

Sesha buche.

It's really romantic.

Hello, Aram.

I've been thinking a lot about you lately.

Hi, Alice.

I have regrets about, you know, how I broke up with you

I found I have this problem with sex

because I just use it to get what I want and I really think that's what I did with you.

I would love to meet with you,

so we can talk and make some apologies to you.

-- Amends?

-- Yes, amends.

I'm really sorry.

You know, I should get going. I don't wanna keep my sister waiting.

What?

I'm so hot.

So? It was...

Long.

I know, I think that you went to a hotel or something.

Oh please.

Honey, what's with your hair?

What?

Okay, fine.

It was awkward and cute and tedious.

Did you just say cute and tedious?

I mean he's a kid and it was tedious.

Sounds like you didn't give him a chance.

-- Did you even kiss those young, soft lips?

-- We didn't get there.

We went to his friend's acting showcase and to this after party at The Loft

Acting showcase?

But now I need a bath.

Alright. My God

What?

Thanks for babysitting.

Okay.

-- Sorry you couldn't get laid.

-- Shut up.

Tedious. --Just to get rid of her.

It was or it wasn't itt?

Oh wait a minute, not quite so much tongue.

Oh, God.

That's gross.

-- Oh sh*t.

-- Oh, God.

Frank? What are you doing up?

Was Aram peeing on you?

No!

I would never do that.

Okay, are you sleeping over?

-- No.

-- No.

-- No?

-- Oh, well.

Don't forget your pants.

-- So does that mean you and mom are gonna have a baby?

-- No!

I don't get it you said that spern makes a baby.

Sperm. and it does.

Can we stop talking

about this, please?

I like your mother and I

think she likes me,

and it's all that's important.

You also work for her.

-- Who's turn is it?

-- Mine.

Okay.

Cmon Frankie, let's get off the doughnuts.

How is that possible?

So you like mom.

-- Are you two gonna date now?

-- I don't know.

You don't really know anything, do you?

-- I mean she's kind of your girlfriend.

-- Are you gonna be our new dad?

-- and you'll also be our nanny?

-- Yeah, and what do we call you?

Jesus, I'm not being nominated to supreme court here guys,

I just had sex with your mother.

When I say sex,

I I mean that I gave her

a nice massage.

With spern.

Oh, you caniving little liar. Oh is he

hiding in the hall?

My God, he was.

-- It sounds so dirty.

-- Dirty?

Ok, it's a little dirty

Well you got that out of your system. Now you're free to meet your next real guy.

What does that mean?

What, it means now when you meet a viable man

he won't have to be your rebound.

Coz your nanny was your rebound.

Gives you pleasure to say that, doesn't it?

I'm not sure of buying

that "The Rebound" thing.

Oh what, you're gonna date the nanny?

Was having one night stand with a nanny more dignified?

No, just more practical

Wait a minute.

You actually have feelings for this kid?

Feelings? I have feelings

for everyone.

That's the way the world works.

God, you're in serious justification mode.

Why do you have to be so cynical?

I mean, I don't judge your

blatant disregard's recycling.

This is not about judgment. This is about my friend.

and what is realistic and what is not realistic for her.

It's about me not wanting to see you get hurt.

Happy birthday ... --Thank you.

We get it.

You need anything?

Stop it.

Okay.

So did Aram tell you about this operation I'm having?

-- Harry?

-- No.

They're gonna give me a new a**hole.

There are children here.

-- Cool, like from a dead guy?

-- Sadie.

I think they're gonna have just passion ,

one out of something.

Hopefully, it's something elastic.

Awesome.

Excuse me.

This is so ... weird.

My dad telling you about his surgery?

Yeah .. I didn't know they can even do that.

You look really pretty..

No, no ...

-- We are in your parent's house

-- I know.

Where is everybody?

Just a little red, I don't think it's trapped.

Cake time.

This one is just from me.

Gummy bears and hand lotion.

Thanks, Dad.

Please. Open your mother's.

-- No, no, he'll open yours.

-- You're his mother.

Well, you're his employer. I insist.

You'll love it.

It's not fake poop, is it?

-- No.

-- That's for Christmas.

Oh, you have Christmas.

What do we got here.

A human totem pole.

Gotta get you up here next time

I don't think so.

This is great, thank you so much.

-- Good.

-- This is perfect.

Thanks Mom.

-- That was just from me.

-- So nice.

Where did you get these butterflies?

My grandmother gave that to my father and

I think it's time for you to have that.

The message applies all these years later.

Mother's love can never be replaced.

-- Never.

-- Never.

Thanks, Mom.

It's antique.

-- Whoa, that's cool

-- Beautiful.

-- I might throw up.

-- What's the chances?

Which direction?

At least you're, we're in your percentages.

Sing me a song.

No, you go to bed.

Sing me a song, or I'll blow up on you.

When you put it that way.

Let's see what I have in my repertoire.

Blow up.

Stay tonight.

Two Months Later

Are we sure this guy is real? I mean, has anybody met him?

He has no time to meet us, he has high school and all that homework...

Isn't he in a baseball team?

He's just running a little late.

Well, he's definitely responsible for an attitude change, because you

well, you can't just stop smiling.

-- She's glowing.

-- Well, he's doing something right.

I am sorry I'm late.

Babysiiter needs to be walked through everything.

Hi.

I'm Aram.

Sorry, this is Aram.

Would you like a coke or something?

-- Scott.

-- I'll take some wine..

So Aram, I've heard a lot about you.

I hope all good things.

That you're wonderful with children,

that you're a great cook ...

that you were born in 1983.

Jesus! I was pregnant

in 1983.

Let's just go on and get it out on the table, get it out in the open so we can enjoy our dinner.

Yes, I was born in the early 80s.

She also told me that you were very handsome and that seems to be true.

I think that it's great you guys are together.

In the words of The Bart:

"The heart wants what it wants."

You are so gay.

Sir, are you ready?

I can be.

Scott, right? Do you mind if I borrow your glasses?
