- Can I be honest with you,
Matt?

- Sure thing, Lisa, go ahead.

- You know, I was expecting you
to ask me on a date

ever since med school started.

You took your time
until tonight.

- Actually I was only waiting
for a special occasion--

- But if you're trying
to impress me

with this expensive car,
then...

I think you might
just have the wrong girl.

- Oh, Lisa, I'm not,
seriously.

This was the only car
left at home.

- I'm sorry...I think
it would just be better

if you take me back home.

- Oh--Come on.

Lisa,
I had no choice about the car.

My mom is gonna kill me
when she finds out

I took it for this
three-day vacation.

[pop song continues

Lisa?

Damn it.

I'm just messing with you.

I'm sorry, Matt, it's just...

this car probably costs more
than the house I grew up in.

- I seriously doubt that.

- Oh, look, my dad's
calling from Toronto.

Maybe you want to ask him.

Hey, Dad, just a few hours

Do you already miss me?

you know I always do.

But right now I need to
know if by any chance

you left some cash here.

some drugs for my asthma.

But now I can't pay

to the ATM today.

Unfortunately,
the neighbors are out too.

But anyway,
I only need like, 10 bucks.

- Look, Mr. Murphy,
I gotta be on my way.

Just order again
when you can afford it.

Dad, let me talk to this guy.

Maybe there are a few dollars
in my bedroom drawer.

- All right, here.
My daughter for you.

- Uh...

Great, Lisa Murphy.

David Spencer, is that you?

Wow, we haven't talked since
you broke up with Katie.

Shame.

Listen David,
can I pay this online?

I've got this banking
app thing on my phone.

It should only take
a few minutes.

- Uh...nope.

Can't do that Murphy.

You know what?

You sound almost as desperate

- Funny, David.
Desperate is just

when I saw that video of you.

You know, the one where
you're drunk and naked

and tried to do it with
Katie's German Shepherd?

I mean,
thank God the poor animal

managed to get away in time.

you still got that video?

- Now I remember.

You weren't totally naked.

You were wearing those
yellow neon tennis socks.

Should get a few clicks

Uh...

Uh, Lisa, don't do that.

Uh, Mr. Murphy,

just forget

Merry Christmas to you, sir.

Just remember to refill
your medication, okay?

- Promise.
Talk to you on New Years Eve.

Take care of yourself, honey.

- You too, Dad.

- Remind me never to
tick you off.

an airport?

- Maybe.

- Don't worry, Lisa.

It's weird--somebody's
supposed to be here by now.

my parents

However, we do own a beach

Malibu to be precise.

Odin, are you

And since navigation's

not affected, we're in no
immediate danger, right?

- What is this TCAS
you were talking about?

- Uh, it stands for,
uh, Traffic Alert

and Collision Avoidance
System.

Every plane sends out a signal
that the other planes receive

letting them know when they
get too close to each other.

That way you avoid mid-air
collisions.

one thing's for sure--
the difference between

how far we must travel

We've all read
the radiation range

dramatically
decreases over water.

drops out of the air.

of your car going that speed?

Then you might know

Just like two yards away,
