I feel for him.

Yeah?

(Ryan) Mm-hm.

(Music plays)

Bye.

Okay. Alright. I'll call you

when I get there. Thanks. Bye.

Ginger told me to tell you thanks.

For what?

She said you were kind to her last night.

Let's call Oliver.

We can't screw up again.

YOU can't.

I won't. I'm not going to.

We can't put him through that again.

We won't.

The girls all think

you're really attractive.

They do?

Well, what'd they say, exactly?

That you have sex appeal.

They think you're great. They love you.

What's the matter? What's wrong?

I'm sorry...

For what?

It's, just, I know I can

be short-tempered and...

Well, you get no sleep.

You're walking around

totally sleep-deprived.

And here you're trying to write,

and mastermind everything...

where the kids are going to go to school,

and what's the best

pediatrician for them to go to,

and whether or not they're

going to get flu shots...

You're an amazing mom. And I'm no help. I mean,

I'm lame. I don't do anything compared to you.

Thank you.

That's all I wanted to hear...

just the acknowledgement, you know?

We should go out. Once a week.

Just the two of us. I don't care

what it costs, we have to do it.

Okay.

Do you remember what Antonio Banderas said?

"A relationship is like a fire."

"You have to throw wood

on it to keep it going."

(in Spanish) Si.

(Ryan) I've been thinking about New York.

(Bree) Really?

Yeah. For a writer, it's

the best place to live.

You know, you overhear the most interesting

conversations that you would never hear in L.A.

I don't know. I know that

Manhattan is crazy expensive...

The air quality is terrible...

Right. But what if, deep down inside, you

believe that it's the only place to live?

Is that what you think?

Maybe.

Me, too.

Let's go. I mean, I could easily

leave, you know? I'm serious.

I mean, I love our friends,

but... I could walk away.

We can't move.

Yeah. Not yet.

I gotta be out here for meetings and stuff.

Dave and Michelle are

hosting the next dinner.

Should be fun.

Yeah. Should be.
