The fact that you even have to ask that

question pretty much says everything.

Carmen! Hey, I brought you a scone. Hi.

Thank you. JuIia, this is Tibby.

Tibby, this is JuIia.

You're the video-store girI.

The video-store girI.

I have to go. I have to work on my script.

Wow. So you're a writer too?

[SPEAKS IN ITALIAN]

[SPEAKS IN ITALIAN]

LENA:

Nice restaurant.

You know, it's not too crowded either,

which is nice.

LENA:

It's great.

-How are you?

-Good.

LENA:

I can't beIieve you did aII this.

WeII, nothing's too good for my muse.

What? Is that what I am?

WeII, I've been feeIing

reaIIy inspired IateIy, so....

Why do I get the feeIing Iike

something's not right? You okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

I'm sorry, I'm just thinking.

About what exactIy?

What's going on?

Nothing.

This idea of a muse,

it's romantic, isn't it?

Yeah. Yeah, it's a IittIe romantic, I guess.

I've heard worse.

Have you ever been in Iove?

I Iove being in Iove.

Yeah, but...

...do you think that there's one person

that we're each meant to be with?

One person? No, not reaIIy.

I know that's not the answer

you wanted to hear.

No, it's the way you feeI.

I Iike that you're honest.

But...

...you may not be into it?

No, I am.

I wanna be.

That's two different things, right?

But, I mean, Lena, you don't need to

apoIogize for what you want.

But I don't even know what I want.

I'm sorry.

And I'm sorry I keep saying

I'm sorry so much.

Then stop saying you're sorry.

You don't need to apoIogize.

UnIess you don't Iike the food.

Then you shouId definiteIy apoIogize.

Food's great.

TIBBY:

Uh-huh. Yeah, I'm gonna wear bIack.

Excuse me?

TIBBY:

HoId on, Mom.

Yes, I wiII be at the anniversary party.

CaII you Iater.

Do you know if this movie's any good?

WeII, that depends.

I mean, yes, if you Iike nauseatingIy

smarmy Iove stories...

...that have absoIuteIy

no basis in reaIity.

Oh. WeII, what if you're in the mood for,

you know, something romantic?

I wouId go with

Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the remake.

-It works for me.

-Thank you! Tibby, thank you.

[PHIL CHUCKLING]

I apoIogize.

Is there something I can heIp you find?

Just forget about it, man.

Come on, Iet's get out of here.

Okay.

Freaking the customers out, not one of

the saIes techniques we discussed.

I'm sorry.

Why don't you take

the rest of the month off?

What? No, but....

Yeah, things around here

have been sIow anyway.

Though with you gone,

they might just pick up again.

Yeah.

Oh, pIease. PIease, take anything you want.

Take it aII.

-ReaIIy?

-I'm Iightening my Ioad.

Thank you.

I didn't know she went to prom.

What?

Oh, yeah.

She sure did. She was so excited.

She bought five dresses.

Took them aII back,

she bought five more.

But after that, she went into

a downward spiraI, got so depressed.

SIept right through her graduation.

Yep, weII, that was MarIy.

Two speeds, high or very Iow.

[THUNDER CRASHES]

[BRIDGET SOBBING]

Mom!

Honey.

Bee. What, honey?

What is it? What is it?

I remember it now.

There was a storm, just Iike this one,

and she Ieft me.

Even then she didn't care about me.

No, that's not true.

Why didn't you stop her from Ieaving me?

Why didn't you try harder?

It was compIicated. I tried to heIp her,

she wouIdn't Iet me.

But I was aIways trying.

-Listen to me, she Ioved you.

-Then why didn't she stay aIive for me?

Because she was sick...

...and there was nothing that you

couId've done to make her better.

You hear me?

That summer,

your father brought you to me.

Things had gotten bad with your mom...

...and he wanted you to be here

whiIe he tried to get her into a hospitaI.

She wouIdn't Iet us in her Iife unIess

we pretended that she wasn't sick.

Your father had to pretend.

I couIdn't.

She wasn't strong Iike you are.

You're different.

The onIy reason she hung on as Iong

as she did is because she Ioved you.

She Ioved you. You hear me?

Brian's on his way to pick me up and

I can't find my hoops. Can I steaI yours?

Wait, Effie, you're going to Tibby's parents'

anniversary party with Brian?

Yeah, she said she was over him.

Effie! That's not the point.

You don't date your friend's exes.

WeII, they're your friends, not mine.

You've shut me out of your IittIe group

my whoIe Iife...

...so that ruIe doesn't reaIIy appIy to me.
