Don't you think you should get ready?

For your date?

It's your date.

You're meeting my old boyfriend.

If it's my date, how come you're going
to so much trouble for it? I'm not going

to any trouble.

A seven -course meal is no trouble?

They're not really courses. They're just
little servings.

Starting with this.

Do you like caviar, don't you?

I think you told me you did. And blinis?

I don't think you asked me.

I didn't?

Maybe that was Bert.

Yeah, maybe.

Anyway. This will still be cold if you
want to take a quick shower and put on

something nice like that cashmere
sweater I gave you.

Just curious, how much is this meal
costing us, not including the cashmere

sweater you bought me?

It's costing us about a third of what it
would be in a restaurant, which is why

I wanted to cook, to save money. Yeah,
all right, but if you ask me, you're

showing off in front of your old
boyfriend.

I love it when you're jealous.

I'm not jealous. You just seem to be
making every effort to make me jealous.

making every effort to make Bert
jealous.

I want him to see how wonderful we are
together.

Because? Because when I wanted to marry
him, he didn't want to marry me.

Well, I guess that's honest enough.

Are you sure you still have feelings for
him? I'm still a little angry with him,

yes.

But do I care about him?

I like him, but I love you.

And only you.

And I'd love you even more if you were
showered and wearing that new sweater.

Seven heavens, when I see their happy
faces smiling back at

me.

Seven heavens, I know there's no greater
feeling than the love of

family.

Where can you go when the world don't
treat

you right?

The answer is home.

7 -7 7 -7

Shouldn't we get that together?

Bert!

My little Rosa. How you doing, doll
face?

You look yummier than ever.

It is so good to see you. You look
great.

Well, thanks to you, and I mean that
sincerely.

Hey, how you doing?

Simon Camden.

Bert, Robert, Umberto, whatever you
prefer.

Umberto? Umberto Lanzo.

So, uh, would you like a bellini or some
caviar?

Oh, you remembered.

You're so cute. I love it.

Anybody call Ruthie today?

Like? Just anybody.

Well, no. Why do you ask? I just
wondered. You know, she has a cell

thought maybe somebody might call her.

Why's that?

Well, Ruthie's a very nice girl. I'm
sure plenty of guys have noticed that.

stop worrying. They'll call.

Hey, I hope I get a call, you know,
tonight's the night.

Tonight's the night? When Simon meets
Rose's old boyfriend.

Oh, I forgot.

I didn't.

Look, don't get your hopes up, okay?

Well, I don't know. I have a really good
feeling about this.

I think Simon made it very clear that
he's made up his mind not to let Rose's

old boyfriend get in the way of the
upcoming nuptials.

Okay, we'll see.

Why do you want to do this to yourself?

Why do I want to get excited about the
possibility that our son might not be

making the biggest mistake of his entire
life after all? Because I'm his mother?

All right, well, I guess we're just
going to have to play this one out.

What's going on? Nothing yet.

I'm going to go check on the boys while
you take the bread out of the oven.

Do me a favor.

If I ever do get engaged, and it's a big
if... Someday it'll happen, I promise.

Just let me know if you hate the guy,
all right? And I won't marry him.

Deal. You're not answering? I'm paying
for a cell phone so you can screen your

call? It's Kevin.

Again.

Again? It's a pity call.

He knows no one is calling me. The whole
world knows no one is calling me.

Have you tried giving people your phone
number?

What people?

I don't have a boyfriend.

I don't have any friends. I mean, I
don't know who I expected was going to

me. You have friends.

Uh, no, I don't. Well, you have friends.

No, I don't.

You see, I thought if you got a computer
and a cell phone that you could take

the time to make new friends or call
some old ones, then you and your friends

could call each other and email each
other and maybe just...

Maybe you could use the computer to do
some research and actually learn

something that you never knew before.
Take an interest in what's going on in

world. Be part of the world.

Live. Yeah, well, I thought so, too. But
as it turns out, all I've learned is

what I already knew.

I have no friends.

And I still don't have the computer.

How much more would it have been to get
it shipped overnight?

Twenty bucks.

There's...

There's no reason to pay the 20 bucks.
It'll get here, I'm sure.

Yeah, well, and when it does, I still
won't have any friends to email.

Kevin, you're not on the phone with
Ruthie, are you?

I'm right here.

I left Ruthie a couple messages. She
won't take any of my calls.

Well, um, it's nice of you to call her,
but I think you might be making her feel

worse.

What makes you say that?

Because she called and asked me to ask
you not to call her anymore.

All right, I can take a hint.

Someone wants to say goodnight to you.

Good night, sweetie.

I love when you say that.

We're really lucky. She's such a good
baby.

Aren't you, Savannah?

I like that babies have to learn how to
talk. They can't just say mommy and

daddy right away.

By the time they say it, they mean it.

It's like we've actually earned that,
Mommy and Daddy, over the past year, you

know?

Mama.

Or not.

Yeah, or not.

Good night. I love you, Savannah.

Good night, Mama.

That's Mama.

That's Samson.

And that's Delilah.

No, I'm Daddy.

I would have been happy to cook, you
know.

You've cooked enough for the past six
months.

That's kind of what I want to talk to
you about after dinner.

All right, but not during dinner? It
doesn't matter.

I've just been thinking about, you know,
us and our family and my work and, you

know, this new project and the way we do
things. You know, let's just talk about

it after dinner.

I can't call her. I waited too long to
call her, and now it'd just be like a

really big deal. Who cares if it's a big
deal? I care.

It's only a big deal if you make it a
big deal.

Well, I made it a big deal, so that's
what it is. It's a big deal.

What's the worst thing that could
happen?

I don't know. My girlfriend could find
out. What girlfriend? You don't have a

girlfriend. There's a girl that you
email and call sometimes, but you never

her. Still.

Still what? That's not a relationship.

Yeah, well, Ruthie's in love with that
Martin guy.

At least that's what everyone's telling
me. She's in love with him. The guy that

went away to take care of his baby that
he had with another woman?

Yep.

I don't believe it.

I don't believe she's in love with him.
Call her and ask her. I can't just call

up Ruthie and be like, hey, are you in
love with that Martin guy or not?

First you say, hey, Ruthie, how you
doing? I've been thinking about you.

you talk for a few minutes and then you
say, hey, whatever happened to that guy

who used to live at your house? What's
his name?

Mark?

Martin.

I know that, but if you act like you
don't know his name, it won't seem like

it's that important, okay?

I can't.

I practically owe Reverend Camden my
life. You have to do this for me, for

Why didn't you just tell him I had a
girlfriend?

Because you don't. Where am I supposed
to tell Ruthie I got her phone number

from anyways?

It's listed.

She doesn't have to know that her dad
called me.

Oh, so you want me to lie.

She probably won't even ask.

And if she does?

Tell her I gave it to you.

That's the truth.

I don't know.

Who pays for that phone?

You do.

Right. And your mother didn't think you
even needed a cell phone.

Remember?

Look, Martin.

I figure you're not here.

You've got a new life.

I've only got a couple of months of
school left.

What's it going to hurt if I just call
Ruthie and talk?

I mean, maybe Ruthie and I could be
friends.

You two were friends?

We could go to the movies or get a
coffee or something without either one

making it any big deal.

Right?

I've got no one to hang out with, so
call me.

And let me know how the baby is, huh?

I can't believe you're a dad.

Call me back.

I know, but...

If Ruthie wanted me to have her number,
I'm sure she would have given it to me

herself.

What should I do?

So, here's to a long and happy marriage.

This is the Chianti from your father's
vineyard that I love so much, isn't it?

You sent you a whole case. It's actually
in the car. An engagement present for

you and Simon.

Actually, I hardly ever drink. That is
so sweet.

I love your dad.

Well, not as much as he loves you.

His dad loves me.

Who doesn't?

I think we know who doesn't.

And your mom? She's well? Well, she
hasn't spoken to me since we broke up.

You mean since you broke up with me?

Well, that's what I mean. She hasn't
forgiven me yet.

Oh, neither has Rose.

I think I'll check on the lasagna.

The vegetarian?

The eggplant one?

Just like your mother makes.

You know, my mother never gave that
recipe to anybody outside the family

than Rose.

I thought you got the recipe when you
were at cooking school in Italy.

I did.

That's when I thought Umberto and I were
getting married.

It was his grandmother's school.

I want her back.

I'm just kidding.

No, no, no. Seriously, seriously. I'm
just kidding.

Yeah.

Kind of.

It's not done.

I don't understand. I've had it in the
oven for over an hour and a half.

Maybe we should start without the
chicken.

I don't care about the chicken.

We're starving.

Just let me put it back in the oven for
15 minutes. I'm sure you can wait 15

minutes.

I'm sorry. I thought I turned that off.
Oh, I'll just be a minute. Is that

Simon?

That's Simon. Pick up. Pick up.

Hello? Ruthie, are you alone?

No, I'm not alone.

Well, then get somewhere where you're
alone, because I need you to Google

someone, and I don't want anyone in the
house to know, okay?

Okay.

It's personal.

Hello?

Oh, Simon just called Ruthie. And?

And I don't know.

Simon just called Ruthie.

He's having dinner with Rose and her old
boyfriend tonight.

It's my brother. I'll call him back.

That's okay. I want to talk to my mom
for just a minute.

Hey. What's up? You're just sitting down
to dinner.

Who are you talking to?

My wife.

Why do I have to be your brother?

Lucy doesn't like me. I didn't tell her
I talked to you. What's the problem?

I don't know. I mean, what's the point
in calling, Ruthie?

I'm graduating.

I'm going to school in Florida.

I didn't ask you to marry her. I asked
you to call her.

I can't get him to call her. Maybe you
can get her to call him.

Why won't he call her?

Because he's made such a big deal out of
it. If she's not happy to hear from

him, he's going to need therapy the rest
of his life.

No, he won't, and she'll be happy to
hear from him. She'd be happy to hear

anybody. So my son's just anyone?

No, of course not. No, I'm just saying,
it's just a phone call.

Does he have a girlfriend?

Kind of. It's a cell phone email
relationship.

And calling Ruthie would be cheating?

I don't know. Does anybody know what the
rules are?

You know, Ruthie's just an old friend.

I know that.

Well... I'll keep trying.

Why couldn't he just send it overnight?

Twenty dollars more.

I would have sent you the twenty if I'd
known I'd be in this situation.

Well, what kind of situation are you in
exactly?

I mean, to have someone Googled.

This guy shows up. He's nothing like I
expected. Now I'm completely off my

Well, what were you expecting?

Not this guy.

Talk to me about what, Lucy? Just talk
to me now.

Oh, boy, would you get that, please?

Hello, Kansas resident.

Lucy, I'm your mother. Why can't you
tell me before you tell him?

Because he's my husband.

Everything okay?

Everything's fine.

Do we want to subscribe to the Glen Oak
Gazette?

No, we already subscribed to a
newspaper.

We already subscribed.

Okay, I'll call you back, but talk to
Kevin so you can talk to me. Well, wait,

just tell me first.

You know, if whatever you want to talk
to me about is about you and me, then

just tell me.

Does this have something to do with the
baby? Are you okay?

I'm fine. The baby's fine. Everything's
fine. It's just not a conversation to

have on a cell phone.

What conversation can't you have on a
cell phone?

Ooh, hang on.

No, I already subscribed to the paper.

I don't have time for this, okay?

Yeah, I'm a stay -at -home dad, so?

Ooh, hang on.

Hi, this is Lucy.

Oh, hi.

No, no, no, that's okay. I just didn't
want to commit to the property yet.

Yes, yes, no, it is the perfect
location, but we're on a budget, a very

budget, and I wanted to bring someone in
who has a little bit more experience

with that sort of thing.

You know, I'm afraid I'm going to have
to call you back.

No, I'm sorry, it's just that... Hold
on.

Hi, you called already. We subscribe.

Take us off the list, okay?

Look, do you always do this before you
call a girl? First time?

Pretty much, yeah.

And this isn't any girl. This is a girl
that I probably shouldn't call.

Because?

All right, let me get my computer on and
I'll take a quick look, but I can't

make the decision.

I've got another call.

Property for teenage mothers.

I'm sorry, I'll be right there.

But we should get a break because we're
paying cash, wouldn't we?

I need you to do me a favor.

Hang on, I'm on the other line. Let me
hang up.

Sorry, I would talk to my dad about
this, but my mom and dad are divorced,

didn't your dad die when you were in
high school?

Not my dad, Lucy's dad, Reverend Camden.
You call him dad?

Yes, I do, and would you quit making
such a big deal out of this and call

goodbye?

Sorry.

I did something stupid. I called Vic and
asked him to have Peter call Ruthie

because I thought, you know, maybe it
would cheer her up. I did the same

You called Peter?

No, I ran into Martin's friend back at
the promenade and gave him her number.

Oh. Well, uh, all right. I also might
have mentioned her phone number in

passing to that guy that she went to the
church social with, Sam.

I don't think she liked him.

Yeah, I know. But he seems like a nice
guy, and he passed by the car while I

waiting for her to come out of school.

What is it about these cell phones? I
feel like my brain has just been sucked

right out of my head. Nope.

Good can come from this.

Take it easy. It's just a cell phone.
You'll get used to it.

Well,

shouldn't she get back out there?

I did get back out there. Then I spilled
something on my sweater so I can get

back in here.

You know, I don't think she's just
trying to make me jealous. It's more

that.

Are you sure that I'm the person that
you should be talking about this with?

Weren't you just complaining all week
that nobody calls you? I'm having a

attack here. Okay.

Can you hold on a second?

Take a deep breath.

Hello? Hey, it's me, Mac.

I heard you got a cell phone.

Yeah, I do.

I'm on the other line with my brother.
Can I call you back?

Sure, call me back.

Hey. You don't think she'd actually
leave me for her old boyfriend, do you?

Sorry, can you hold on a second?

No, we already subscribed.

Thank you.

He's not even her type.

I... Hold on, I have another call.

Hello? Do you think it would be okay if
we eat the chicken?

What chicken?

Where is everyone?

They're on their cell phones.

Eat the chicken.

I've spent trying to get you. You owe me
an answer.

Are you in love with Martin Brewer or
not?

What difference does it make?

I mean, you said you didn't even want to
be friends with me.

I said I didn't want to be friends?

Yeah, you said that.

Well, maybe I do want to be friends.

But only if you're not going to go out
with me.

I'm not going to go out with you.

But I really do want to be friends with
you.

So, truthfully, is this about Martin
Brewer or is it about me?

It's about me.

All right, well, give me a call
sometime.

I can always use a friend.

Yeah, me too.

Bye.

Hey, I'm sorry. I was going to call you
back, but I didn't. Sorry.

Thought maybe you were worried about
Martin.

Just so you know, I called him to see if
it's okay if I called you.

But he didn't call me back.

You don't have to ask Martin's
permission to call me.

I didn't have to, but... Are you still
in love with him?

What's the point?

He's kind of taken.

Yeah, but when did that matter to
anybody?

I'm calling you, and you're taken.

Mentally, anyway.

Yeah, kind of.

So why are you calling me?

I don't know. Some guys find the
unattainable attractive.

You know what I mean?

No.

Did my dad ask you to call me?

Apparently he was handing out my number
at school today.

No, it was your brother -in -law.

I must be really pathetic.

You're in love with a guy who just had a
baby.

That's kind of pathetic, don't you
think?

In what way?

In what way?

I'm joking.

So what's going on in your life?

Oh, can you hold on a second?

I've got another call.

Hello? Hello yourself.

Peter? Yep.

It's me.

Can I call you right back?

Sure.

She's so lonely and depressed, no one
ever calls her. She's on the other line

right now.

Maybe she's talking to the principal of
her school or the president of the

United States.

I don't know.

Just because she's talking to somebody
else doesn't mean she's not excited to

hear from you. That's exactly what it
means. That she's talking to him and not

to me.

Me? She'll call back later.

Thanks.

What do you care?

You have a girlfriend.

Well, as you pointed out, she's not my
real girlfriend.

So what do you want to do?

I'll just wait for Ruthie to call me
back, and then if she calls me back, I

didn't call her, so technically it's not
cheating.

On the girlfriend you don't really have.

What if you talk to Ruthie in person?
What if we just drop by to say hello?

People don't do that. You can't just
drop by someone's house and say hi.

You have to call first.

They're Christians.

And? They have to let us in.

Just drop by?

No.

Sorry, I couldn't get off the phone.

I hate bad dogs, but I haven't fed them
yet.

Oh, I'm sorry. I just couldn't get off
my phone.

Where are the boys?

I'm sure they're around.

Where's the chicken?

Oh, hello there. What were you doing
outside?

Taking out the trash. We cleaned up
everything, just like you would if you

weren't on the phone.

And Happy helped.

Did you also put the leftovers in the
refrigerator, just like we would have?

There's no leftovers.

You didn't eat the whole chicken and all
the mashed potatoes and the peas and

the salad and the rolls, did you? We
shared.

We called Simon. He said we could eat
the chicken. So we did.

It was really good. Thank you. Well,
you're welcome. Did Simon mention

about how dinner's going at his house?

Okay, well, hey, thanks for cleaning up.

We were so busy on the phone that we
forgot to feed our children. I am so

ashamed of myself.

Me too.

And I'm so hungry.

Remember that time we got that car stuck
in an alley in that tiny little

village? Oh, yeah.

I probably couldn't even fit in that car
now. I probably couldn't fit in the

alley. I probably couldn't even fit in
the village.

I like a man with an appetite.

You always had a big appetite.

It shows you love life.

Yeah, but not as much as food.

I was hoping to lose a pound or 50
before the wedding. Are you getting

No, you are.

I'm just an usher or something, right?

If you can come all the way back out
here, we'd love to have you be an usher.

Wouldn't we, Simon?

Unless you want to be a bridesmaid.

Who was it?

No one.

Someone. Someone you don't want us to
know about.

You don't have a girlfriend, do you?

No. Actually, that was my mother.

She's probably just checking on how our
dinner is going. I'm going to go outside

and call her back.

Sorry.

His mother?

I doubt it.

Simon's very close with this family.

and I'm sure his mother is hoping that
you'll break up the two of us and the

wedding will be called off.

And, uh, what are you hoping?

I'm hoping that we don't still have
feelings for each other.

We don't, do we?

Are you insane?

I just wanted to know how dinner's
going.

Not that great, but I can't talk and you
can't call me again.

Oh, but I can.

Look, I'm getting married.

I'm really getting married.

From what you've told me, I don't know
why you're marrying this woman.

I was just blowing off a little steam
when I was talking to you, okay?

It's a stressful time in my life.

You're not handling it that well.

Maybe I can help you.

No, you can't. And please don't call me
again. I'm turning off my phone.

I have your home phone number. Would it
be better for me to reach you there?

I'm kidding.

What do you think I am, a stalker?

Well, you're not, right?

No, I'm not.

And I was just going to leave you a
message. I didn't know you'd actually

up the phone, Simon.

I'll see you around.

Bye.

Hello? One more thing.

I'm in the parking lot.

No, it's missing something.

I fried the paste with the oil to start,
but I don't know.

Simon, are you okay?

We're moving on to the pasta.

Just a second.

Simon, is everything all right at your
house?

Yeah, yeah, everything's fine.

I'm just feeling a little lightheaded.
I'm not used to the wine, I guess.

I'm sorry, Umberto. I don't mean to be
rude.

Actually, I think I need some fresh air.

If you two will excuse me, I'm just
going to go back outside for a minute

take a walk around the block.

You two go ahead with dinner. I don't
want to spoil your reunion or anything.

I'm just going to go get some oxygen.

We can all go if you want. We could all
take a walk.

No, no, no, no, no. That's not
necessary. You two stay here and catch

It's because your grandmother's tomato
paste is fresh instead of canned.

No, they're practically the same.

What the heck is going on?

What do you mean?

What I mean is something's going on with
this fiancée of yours, and I don't

think it has anything to do with his
mother.

You don't know his mother.

And really, it probably is the wine. He
can't drink.

Well, it's not such a bad thing as long
as he doesn't pursue it. But, hey, sure

you're happy with this guy?

I'm sure.

Okay.

Well, um... I want you back.

I'm just kidding.

Kinda. Do you still have feelings for
me?

I'm not getting left at the altar a
second time.

Kevin, uh... I'm not gonna take on this
project.

The home for teen girls.

Because? Because I'm 23 years old.

Just 23 years old. And I just started
working as the associate pastor at my

dad's church. And in order to do that,
you gave up your job to be a stay -at

-home parent.

And I'm glad I did, and I'll support you
in anything you want to do.

Why do you think that at 23 I still have
a lot to learn, Kev? I mean, I know

very little about acquiring property and
getting licensed and setting up a

facility to serve the...

pregnant teen population.

I mean, that's a huge task.

Huge. And, you know, I'm a young mother
and we've got a growing family.

I want to work, but I don't want to work
so hard that I don't have time for you

and Savannah and the baby.

You know, I want us to enjoy this time
in our lives.

It's such a wonderful thing to be young
and healthy and in love and have

children. And on top of all of that, I
get to work with my dad in a job that...

I love, you know, I don't know what
could be better.

So I'm going to back away from this
project.

I found someone to take over for me,
someone who has more experience than me.

I don't know. Last time I saw Peter, it
was a bit awkward.

It's always awkward seeing someone you
used to care about.

Did you ever care about me?

I mean, really care.

Okay, don't answer that.

If you didn't care about me, going out
with me wouldn't be awkward.

No, I did, in a way.

And I think it was caring about you that
made me realize that I could care about

Martin because we're the same age.

And then, of course, when Martin moved
out, he didn't seem so much like a big

brother. Okay, I see. It's my fault.

Well, I guess if you're thinking about
Martin, then you're not thinking about

going out with me.

Well, it's just I think Peter's more
appropriate for me to go out with.

He's my age.

What's a year or two?

Besides, it's about how you feel about a
person.

Peter isn't Martin.

I'm not Martin either, but I'm closer to
being Martin than Peter is.

I don't know.

I kind of miss Peter.

All right. Well, that's about all the
rejection I can handle for an evening.

You have my number if you ever want to
call me.

All right. Thanks.

Yeah, let me know how things go with
Peter.

Hey, Ruthie, you got company?

I didn't want to wait for you to call me
back.

I wanted to see you.

Me and my dad were at the prom now, and
so we just figured we'd drop by.

I know it's kind of rude to just drop
by, but I did try to call. I know. I

couldn't decide if I should call you
back.

I figured my dad had asked you to call
me, and you probably still had a

girlfriend.

Yeah, but we don't really see each
other. We just kind of talk on the phone

easier than this.

Yeah. Well, I've only had my cell phone
for a week, so talking to you face -to

-face isn't that hard for me.

That's how I usually talk to people,
face -to -face.

You really do have a pretty face.

Is this your first experience with cell
phones?

Oh, not really.

Uh, yes.

You were kind enough at one time to tell
me how I might improve my life.

So let me give you a tip.

When it comes to the world of teenagers
and cell phones and emails, it's a dark

pool. Do not swim in there.

Stay up on the shore, far, far away from
all the activity, lest you drown from

trying to keep your daughter from going
under.

That's quite an analogy.

Thank you.

Hey, you're not...

Still drinking?

No. Stone cold sober. Thank you very
much.

Good to see you. Really, it is. We've
missed you.

And Paris and Peter. And where's the
baby?

Oh, my God. Where is the baby?

Oh, that's right.

Oh, Paris has her tonight.

It's a boy's night out. A little
something I started with my son.

We go out once a week.

Talk face -to -face, something you might
want to consider as you move into the

world of endless, mindless, continuous
cell phone conversations.

Fortunately, I think we've gotten that
message quickly. We're only going to use

them when it's really necessary for
emergencies.

Don't kid yourself. There's no going
back.

Okay, we can go now.

Good night.

Good night.

Can we go the other way out?

Thanks for handing out my number.

And for the cell phone, of course.

Good night. Wait a minute, Ruthie. Are
you and Peter going to start seeing each

other again?

I don't know.

Maybe.

Or maybe we'll just be friends.

Cell phone friends.

Cell phone friends who make out
occasionally.

Yeah, I guess.

Rose is as excited to see her old
boyfriend. Oh, yeah, but what are the

of that?

It's Lucy.

Well, maybe you should take it.

Kevin?

Hello? Yeah.

I'm so sorry.

You won't believe what happened. I
actually got lost.

Simon, Umberto is telling me about
Positano.

No, let's find out what happened to
Simon.

No, please. I'm sure that Positano is
much more interesting.

Then can he last in the parking lot?

The parking lot?

I'm kidding.

Kind of.

Simon, you still look a little pale.

Maybe you should take another walk.

Yeah, okay. Yeah, I think I will.

You don't think anything's going on with
him?

Yeah, I think he's totally jealous and
nervous and a little intimidated.

And now that he sees you as a threat,
I'm absolutely certain he won't leave me

at the altar.

Well, what about you? Are you absolutely
certain you won't leave him at the

altar?

It's really scary when you're not sure
about what you're doing.

Maybe it'd be best just to admit that
you're having doubts.

That I'm not having doubts.

Okay, well, what if I said I really do
want you back?

And I'm not kidding.

Not even kind of.

You know, on second thought, I think I'm
fine now.

I know people in City Hall.

Jane's daughter is in Ruthie class.

And she said she'd help me, like, speed
through the building permits so that if

the bid does come through, we can start
renovation immediately in what used to

be a workout facility in this apartment
complex.

So we'll set up a nursery, a 24 -hour
nursery, so that these girls have

to watch their children. I mean, it will
give them many more options for their

work and for their school.

Go on.

Should I?

Yeah, no, it's really nice to hear you
so excited about something.

Okay, well, I think I can do it without
too many big changes around here.

You know, I have the time, or I can make
the time.

The twins are in school, and Ruthie's
16. She'll be off to college in two

I've always loved teenage girls, and I
know a lot about babies.

Absolutely. Is Lucy going to stay
involved?

She'll be involved only in the
counseling service part of it. She

to take any more on. She wants to take
life a little more slowly.

She'll be involved with you and the
church.

From her family and her work, she hopes
to gain the knowledge and the life

experience that will then allow her to
do something like this, but not now.

But she's convinced Mrs. McCafferty that
I'm the person for the job, and Mrs.

McCafferty is very impressed with Lucy.

Admitting that you don't know anything
is the beginning of wisdom.

Or the absence of an Internet
connection.

I think Lucy's going to be a very wise
woman. Just like her mother.

You know, you haven't mentioned Simon
and Rose for hours.

Did you ever find out why he was calling
Ruthie? You know, the funny thing is,

I've been so busy with my own life that
I've stopped worrying.

And like my daughter, I think I'm
learning that maybe I don't know

Like, I guess I don't know what's right
for Simon. I'd like to think that I do,

but maybe I don't. I mean, maybe he
should marry Rose.

I mean, maybe he could do better than
Rose, but then again, maybe he could do

worse.

Hello? Hi, is my wife there?

Do you think we would have been as close
as we are if we had relied on these

things instead of each other all these
30 years?

I don't know. I mean, I don't know if
the new ways of communicating are better

or if we're getting equal amounts of
misinformation with all of our new

information or if we're actually better
informed. I don't know.

I really don't.

But I do know that I love you.

And I love you.

Huh?

Hi, Ruthie. It's Benjamin.

Benjamin? Benjamin Bainsworth. I'm in
your English class.

Oh. Did my dad give you my number?

No. I found it.

Some guy wrote it on a piece of paper,
and it was blowing around the promenade,

and I picked it up.

I figured it was fate.

I've thought about calling you all year,
but I didn't think you had a cell

phone, and I didn't know about calling a
religious person's house.

My dad's a minister, but we're pretty
much like any other family.

Yeah, I guess now you are.

Yeah, because now we are.

Thanks, you don't have to do that.

I'll clean up. I cooked.

No, I've got it.

That was a really amazing meal.

You think?

Yeah, and Umberto seemed like a really
nice guy.

He is a nice guy.

It was good to see him again.

Um, how good?

How good?

Well, I was just wondering, you know.

I mean, you two seem to be really close.
Close like friends close. You know, I'm

not saying that you two are anything
more than friends, but... Do you still

any... Feelings for Umberto?

I thought I didn't, but honestly, I
don't know.

He's going to stick around for the week.

I'll be right back to help you.

Promise.

Hey, are you coming out to play again?

Simon?

Did you think about what I said?

Rose?
