I don't want that with you.

Jane, you're going
through something right now.

What do you expect me to do?
Just ignore it?

Yes.

I appreciate everything you're doing,

but this is about me.

It has nothing to do with you right now.

Yeah, except I'm dating you right now,

and I told you I want to be involved.

I don't want you involved.

Right.

I don't think it's working.
