All language subtitles for Party of Five s03e02 Going Going Gone

[soft music playing]

Hm. Romantic rendezvous,
five letters.

Uh, date?

Hey, check it out.

Camping in Big Sur.

Just, you know, quit your job--

Apartments, jobs, in that order.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It would have been
nice, though, huh?

Yeah.

Tryst. That's it. T-R-Y-S--

-Hey.
-Hm? T.

-[grunts]
-No. No!

-Come on.
-Stop!

[giggles] You're such a brat.

[giggling]

Stop.

[Byron] Okay. The bubbles
stopped bubbling.

So flip 'em, silly.

[Julia giggles]

[Claudia giggles]

I'm not ticklish.

Sorry.

Tsk.

Good to know, yeah.

Ah, here's one, on Potrero.
"Roommate wanted, two bedrooms."

How much?

Well, your couch
is a lot cheaper.

End of the week and
you're out of here.

He's looking, Charlie.

And pick up your crap in the living room.
I'm sick of tripping over it.

I think he's
starting to like me.

Keep looking.

Yeah, right. Got ya.

Wait.

Hold on. Wait. You've
got some newsprint

on your little-- There you go.

-Oh, do I?
-Mm-hm.

[Griffin speaking indistinctly]

Ta-da.

Banana and peanut butter
pancake sandwiches.

-What?
-You--

You've got peanut butter
on your nose, doof.

Heh-heh-heh. Oh.

Would you mind?

[theme song playing]

? Everybody wants to live ?

? Like they wanna live ?

? And everybody wants to love ?

? Like they wanna love ?

? Everybody wants to be ?

? Closer to free ?

? Closer to free ?

[Will] Will you listen
to his hobbies?

"Leather crafting,

"pot-- Pottery throwing

and bonsai cultivation."

Bailey, he's a freak. I
have to live with a freak.

Not before you have to drive
across country with him.

Excuse me for not
crying here, Will,

but you're about
to move to, like--

Like what? A totally
new time zone.

And me, for my big time
college adventure,

I get to drive, like,
two stop lights.

That's assuming I ever
get my jeep back.

Yeah, well, I get to
go straight to hell.

[man] Hey, is, uh--

Is one of you guys,
um, Will McCorkle?

Hey.

Tucker Blagdon,
your new roommate.

Hey!

Uh, this is my friend,
Bailey Salinger.

-Hey, how you doing?
-Good, how are you?

[indistinct
announcement over P.A.]

Is that all you brought?

Yeah, yeah. Like the poet says,

never own more than you can
carry on your back, you know?

Oh, hey, do you think
you could, um,

watch this stuff for
me for a second?

I gotta do some recycling.

"Like the poet says?" "I gotta do
some recycling?" What is that, Bay?

I don't know. He's from Seattle.

Hey, this is cool. He's got
a-- He's got a harmonica.

Yeah. And that's all
he's got, which means

he'll be using my stereo,
my computer, my blender,

and my hair-care products. I can't
live with this guy, Bay. I can't.

Hey, relax, Will. He's
only your roommate.

He doesn't have to
be your best friend.

[Kirsten] You can?
Really, you can?

Uh, no. Uh, no, no.

I'm-- I'm interested.

Very. Um, ah, wait.

Wait. I need to write this down.

[Charlie] What?

-Jeb Upner? Who--?
-No, no, no, no, no. No.

I mean, I'm-- I'm
thrilled that you called.

I'm-- I'll see you tomorrow.

Heh. Thank you. Bye.

What? Who--? Who's Jeb Upner?

Job offer, Charlie.
They offered me a job.

That's-- That's great, Kirsten.
But don't you already have one?

Do you remember that job
that I wanted so bad

and they strung me along and
they ended up giving it

to some guy with a
published thesis?

-The one in Seaside?
-Cal State Monterey.

Well, it turns out Mr.
Published-Thesis took another offer

and guess whose name
was left on the list?

Wow. That's-- That's fantastic.

It's Monterey.

What? You mean that it's far away.
I know.

It is. But, ah, the fact
that they called, Charlie.

I mean, this school, they
have a library annex

that's just for child
psychology and they want me to

to meet the department
head tomorrow morning.

So I'm gonna have to
get up at, like, dawn.

Okay. So we'll go to bed early.

Great. Oh, I'm gonna
check my notes.

I don't want to-- I don't want
to forget all their names.

[sighs]

Charlie, you're it.

[sighs]

[Julia] Hey, Claud, I'm up for laundry.
You got any--?

[sighs]

Man, who do I have to kill to get
a little privacy around here?

Well, I-I was just--

Um, you got any whites?

In the hamper.

So go get them.

You go get them. I-I'm busy.

You want them washed?

Heh. Hold that thought, Byron.

So.

Claud's told me a lot about you.

Trust me, she lies.

Actually, she's told
me you're pretty cool.

Well, she told me
you're pretty cool too.

You play soccer or
something, right?

Goalie.

Hm. Funny, I never thought
I'd see Claud dating a jock.

Um, not that there's anything
wrong with dating jocks,

es-- Especially soccer players.

I mean, soccer players are cool.

I-if I was gonna
date an athlete,

I'd-- I'd definitely
go with soccer.

You would?

Yeah.

Okay. Adios.

Great. Bye.

Bye.

Oh, hey, Julia, you, uh--

You dropped your--

Your thing.

Thanks.

[Julia] Will you tell
me where we're going?

-Nope. Close your eyes.
-Ugh.

I got it. You found a place.

That's it, right?

Come on, Griffin, is it big?

You'll see.

[giggles] Lots of windows?

You could say that.

[Julia giggles]

Okay. Open them.

Where is it?

Surprise.

It's a car.

Yeah. It's pretty cool, huh?

No. No. It's-- It's not cool.
What were you--?

Griffin, you were supposed
to get an apartment.

-Relax. I'll get one.
-When?

Griffin, Charlie is not kidding.
He's gonna kick you out.

So unless you bought
this to sleep in...

I bought it for you.

Me?

Yeah.

Because I hated seeing you
take muni all the time

and I got a pretty good deal.
So I just thought...

Look, you just, pull,

ugh, and lift here.

[door creaks open]

All right? See?

You hate it.

-No.
-I can fix the door.

No. I just, uh--

I-I can't believe it.

Well.

Ah, I, uh,

can fix that too.

[classical Indian music playing]

[Tucker] So I'm thinking if Will and
me book through Nevada and Utah,

we could make it to the
Kansas State Fair,

because this thing, man,
it's supposed to be crazy.

They got tobacco spitting,

hog calling, jerky pulls.

-Jerky pulls?
-Yeah, man.

If it lives in the dirt,
they got a contest for it.

Can I give you some
advice, Tucker?

Save the theme travel, really.

Will's not into it at all.

It's not supposed to be
educational or anything.

No. I know. I know. But
just take my word for it.

I tried it myself.

All it got me was a stolen car.

How could he not like a
spitting contest? Come on.

-Did you say spitting contest?
-Uh-huh.

No, when my cousin Rob
drove cross country,

he came across this thing. It's,
like, this state-fair thing.

Said it was the wildest
show he ever saw.

There was, like, ax throwing and log
rolling and-- and squash hurling.

Really? Because I was just telling
Bailey that if we booked real fast,

we could make it to the Kansas
State Fair on the way to Perry.

-Really?
-Uh-huh.

No. Because I'm awesome at
competitive pie eating.

I got, like, no gag reflex at all.
Seriously.

Well, if we drive, like, 10 hours a
day, we could make it there in time.

-[Will] I'm up for that.
-[Tucker] All right.

-Parker Patterson Press. One moment.
-[phone rings]

-Parker Patterson Press.
-[phone rings]

-One moment.
-Hey.

Parker Peterson Press--
I mean-- Hello?

Griffin, what are you--?

-[phone rings]
-Hold on. This is Julia.

Oh, Mr. Conklin. No. Just your wife.
Right.

-[line disconnects]
-You're welcome, jerk.

-Is that the guy with the, uh--?
-Comb-over, yeah.

Griffin, what are you doing here?
I thought you were supposed to--

[phone rings]

Parker Patterson Press.
I'm sorry?

-Uh-huh.
-I got you fuel pump fixed

which took care of the
gas smell in your car.

So I was thinking that, uh, maybe we
could take a drive up to Drakes Beach.

Uh, I'll transfer you
to Distribution.

Griffin, I-I work till 6:00.
You know that.

So cut out early.

I can't cut out early.
This is my job.

Okay, cool. Well,

I'll wait, then.

-[phone rings]
-Griffin--

Parker Patterson Press.

No, I'm sorry. She's
not in at the moment.

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Yeah, I-- I will. Thanks.

Don't play with it.

Sorry.

[sighs]

Here.

This was posted in the lounge.

One of the mail room guys
is looking for a roommate.

So go, call him.

Ah, I don't know.

You know, like today.

Now.

[Bailey] "Fifth-floor
double with partitions,

smoker preferred
but not required."

So-- So it's okay I don't smoke.

Mm. Lucky you. And how
much is this gonna cost?

I mean, like, 550 a month. So with a few
extra hours at the restaurant, I can--

You could share a basement
triple under dining hall.

"Breakfast just a hurl away.
Must love Jethro Tull."

I know all the words
to "Aqualung."

Okay. Or-- Oh,

"Premed suite seeking
roommate who sleeps days.

Do not apply if allergic
to formaldehyde."

I hear that stuff's
great for your sinuses.

Bailey, I-I'm-- I'm--
I'm a little confused.

[sighs]

Will-- Will called
me this morning.

And he asked if he could have my Dr.
Giggles poster for his dorm room

and I said no.

But you hate that poster.
It gives you nightmares.

Yeah. Which kind
of made me realize

instead of like--

Instead of stewing over not
having a full-college experience,

why not just get it together and
get a dorm room for myself?

Even if it means sharing a
bunk in Frankenstein's lab?

Well, how am I supposed
to meet people?

Like, leaning over in
some lecture hall?

"Hey, uh, I couldn't
help but notice,

but we use the same highlighter.
Bailey Salinger, total loser."

Okay. Okay. But can we at least find a place
where I can visit you without, you know,

needing a breathing
apparatus, please?

Yes.

This is Charlie's surprise
18th birthday party.

Only the surprise was he never showed
up because he got sick on tequila.

It was food poisoning, Claud.

Yeah, right.

Oh, whoa. Is that you?

Nope. I was only 5.
That's Julia.

Oh, I'm over here.
Check out the hair.

So if you were 5, then she was what?
10? 11?

Nine. Anyway--

Wow. She does not look 9.

And this was last Halloween.

I wore Julia's old cheerleading uniform.
Pretty lame, huh?

-Julia was a cheerleader?
-Yeah. For, like, 10 minutes.

And then she realized that she
had to smile a lot and quit.

Really? Julia?

[chuckles]

Imagine, hm?

What do you mean think about it?
It's perfect.

Did you see how dirty
that place was?

The guy's a slob.

Oh, Griffin, you're a slob.

Now, come on, I'm
getting tired of this.

Let's go back and
give him a deposit.

It's too expensive.

What? This is the cheapest
thing you've looked at,

and you've got over a
thousand dollars to--

Wait a second. You told me--

How much do you have left?

A couple hundred.

A couple of hundred? You
spent $800 on that car?

I got a great deal.
The guy wanted 15.

Griffin, you spent
all your money.

I mean, how are you
gonna get a place now?

Get a job.

It might take a while, but--

You don't have a while.
I told you,

you can't sleep on
my couch forever.

Why are you freaking out on me?

I was trying to do
something nice for you.

Yeah, I know. It's just--

God, you have enough
money to get a place

and you go blow it on
this junk heap and--

Okay.

Yeah, that's fine.

Maybe someday you can
tell me what I did wrong,

because right now I'm feeling
way too stupid to understand.

Griffin.

[Kirsten] Oh, God, the drive
home was a nightmare.

Plus, they want to dump
an extra tutorial on me.

And I have to buy my own
stationery supplies.

The whole thing

[yawning] is overwhelming.

I know. But it's okay. You
can always tell them that--

I'm gonna take it.

What?

Yep.

I'll call them
back to tell them.

I've got a meeting first
thing, grad school dean.

Even with the extra class and--
And the stationery and the drive?

I really want this, Charlie.

So bad.

And if I have to,

[sighs]

I'll commute.

Well,

okay, but, I mean,
are we gonna--?

Don't you think we
should talk about this?

Because this is--

This is--

Kirsten?

Kirsten?

Hey.

[sighs]

Four thousand dollars?
Are you crazy?

Will you listen to
me for a second?

You don't have to
have a cow about it.

I can pay for it with my own--

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, keep it down.

Kirsten's trying to sleep.

[Julia] Bailey's getting a dorm room.
Did you know about that?

No. He didn't--

Four thousand dollars.

I could cover most
of it by myself.

I thought we all kicked in part of
what we made for family expenses.

What happens to that?

Well, he put his college money
up for the restaurant, Jul.

Can't say he hasn't been
pulling his own weight.

His weight or your
weight, Charlie?

Give me a break. I
mean, really, Julia,

can you please give
me a break here?

Does it make that much of a
difference where you sleep?

Yes. Yes, it does.

-Why?
-Because.

Because, Julia, college--

It's more than just classes
and sports and stuff.

And whatever it is, it happens
at college. Not here.

This is important
to me, Julia, okay?

I know it is, Bay. I-I do.

But come on, $4000 when school
is just 10 minutes away?

With all the stuff that
we need money for.

It-- It just doesn't make sense.

[eerie theme playing on TV]

Oh, no, she's--? She's
going in there?

Oh, this is totally scary.
I can't watch.

[woman screams]

Man, I, uh--

[TV switches off]

I really should get going.

But you've-- You've got, like,
an hour before the next bus.

We could find something to do.

May-- Maybe we should, um--

Maybe we should just watch.

[Julia] Griffin.

Oh, I thought--

Nope, not here.

Hey, Julia.

Hey, Byron. Um,

I'm sorry. I didn't
realize you guys were--

No, no, no, no, no. We were
just, you know, hanging.

I, uh-- I sort of missed my bus.

Anyway, I, uh-- I
gotta get home.

My mom's car's in the
shop and she worries.

And I'm really wiped, so--

Do you want a ride or something?

Hey, you wouldn't mind?

No. Actually, I kind of
want to get out of here.

Well, that'll be cool.

-Great. Let's go. -Whoa,
whoa, whoa, wait a second.

You're not going anywhere.
I'm gonna take Byron home

and you can get your
chores done for a change.

The dishes are piling up and
the bathroom's a wreck.

I-I'll do it when we get back.

Hey, hey, it's okay.

We spent all day together. And
we're still on for tomorrow.

So, uh, I'll see you, okay?

-[engine sputtering]
-[Julia] Okay. 2121.

Is this--? Is this it?

-Yeah. Looks like it.
-Huh.

You know, you should really
learn your way around, Byron.

I mean, it-- It's a straight
shot right up Filbert.

All those side streets
take forever.

Okay. I'll remember
that next time.

Okay.

Well, bye.

Claudia's a really
great kid, huh?

What? I-- Y-yeah, I guess.
Listen, By--

And-- And a really great friend too.
You know,

that's kind of how I think
of her, as a friend.

I mean, after all, I-- I am
five months older than she is.

Whatever. Look,
Byron, I should go.

Julia, I had a really good time.

What?

Do you--? Do you
want to see my room?

What is the matter with you?

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

I-- I just--

I was just thinking earlier
about what you said

-about dating soccer players.
-Uh-huh.

Hey, I'm a soccer player
and I know there's--

I know there's the whole
age-difference thing

but I really think
you're great, so--

So get over it.

And get out.

Oh, God.

Wow.

You smell really good.

Out!

[groans]

[gasps]

God, you scared me.

You two have a nice time?

Excuse me?

You and Byron.

What did you do? Make
out on his front porch?

Look, whatever's going on between the
two of you, leave me out of it, okay?

So I--

I was right about you two?

Wow.

I can't believe you
would do this.

I can't believe that you
stole my boyfriend.

All right. Claudia, first of
all, that is absolutely insane.

A-and second of all, if you
want to get mad at someone,

-get mad at Byron, okay?
-I'm mad at both of you. I mean,

you don't know what it's
like to-- to grow up

in this stupid house with--
with everyone's boyfriends

and girlfriend parading
through here all the time.

I'm sorry, Claudia, but
I-- I didn't do anything.

Yes, you did. You know, I
finally had my own boyfriend

and it was finally my
turn and then, you just--

you walked in there with
your-- with your face on

and all of a sudden, he doesn't
even care about me anymore.

Oh, you scared me.

What time is it?

4:30. Go back to bed, sweetie.

I wanted to talk
about something.

I am running so late, Charlie.

Okay. Wedding.

Um, Mark and Jennifer's
in-- in Napa,

September, um, wait,

28th.

Do you want to go?

Can I--? Can I think about it?

But-- But wait,

uh, your sweater.

Um, oh, yeah,

the restaurant mosaic.

Um, I mean, I really loved your
idea and I'm meeting with the guy,

but we're gonna
have to decide to--

Yeah, um, I'm really glad you
mentioned that, Charlie.

I am. But you know what?

What?

I gotta go. I'm so sorry.

-Kirsten, come on.
-I know.

I know, I know.

But we'll talk about it
when I get home. Okay?

I love you. I love you.

[Sarah] Think about it, Bailey.
I mean, dorm room, okay?

Crowded, noisy, funky,

ugh, smelly.

Attic: quiet, peaceful.

Boring.

Home.

Hey, there you are.

Hey, where's Tucker?

He's out in my car learning how to drive
a stick. It's too painful to watch.

Ugh. I hope Gina's
not teaching him.

Last time she drove the jeep, she made
the gears sound like they were crying.

No. Gina's not teaching him.

Because, uh, Gina and me,
we kind of broke up.

What?

Why? What happened?

I don't know.

I'm sitting there watching her
mismatch an outfit, and it hits me.

Here's this girl
I'm crazy about.

So how can I go away and, like,
tie her to the telephone?

That's not what college
is supposed to be about.

It's supposed to be, you know, doing
new stuff, meeting new people.

Don't tell me you actually
said that to Gina?

Yeah, I said that
'cause it's true.

And it worked out for
Tucker, so I figured--

Tucker? What does he
have to do with it?

Nothing. He just did the same
thing with his girlfriend.

So since you guys are roommates,
you gotta dump yours too?

No.

I don't know. Maybe it's rough,
but it's the right thing to do.

What? That-- That
makes no sense, Will.

You know what, Bay? Shut up.

'Cause it's none
of your business.

God, even Gina took
it better than you.

[slurps]

[clears throat]

Don't get mad.

I-I picked them in
Golden Gate Park.

Um, I know how you get
when I spend money on you.

Where have you been?

Uh, I've just been
staying at the Y.

I just figured you really
didn't want me around, so...

Uh, listen, uh, can we--?

Can we just start over?

[man] Julia.

Did you pouch the Scarves
manuscript to New York?

[Julia] Yes, Mr. Conklin.
Six copies.

And did they have all the pages?

Because the copy you gave
me has only the odd pages.

What?

I--

You should've--

[Julia sighs]

God, I-I guess the--

This is very sloppy work, Julia.

We can't afford these
kinds of stupid mistakes.

Hey, she said she
was sorry, okay?

Excuse me?

-Griffin--
-She said she was gonna

take care of it, but you
keep ragging on her.

-Why don't you lay off, man?
-Who is this idiot?

Hey.

[Julia] Griffin.

Griffin, just go home.

Okay? I mean it.

Oh, hey, I got
news for you, pal.

You're not fooling
anybody with that hair.

I, um...

I'm glad I'm meeting him here.

I mean, he won't even look
at me when Julia's around.

So you're just gonna
dump him, huh?

Of course I'm gonna dump him.

Not until after I tell
him what a jerk he is

and throw his
jacket in his face.

[sighs]

Man, I wouldn't wanna be
in his shoes right now.

Look, he deserves what
he's gonna get, Charlie.

I mean, I'm just-- I'm gonna
tell him off and kick him out,

and there is nothing he can say
that's gonna change my mind.

Unless he's really,
really sweet.

And he begs,

like,

a lot.

[man on radio] Are you ready
to play our bonus round?

[woman] Ready as can be, Chip.

[man] There's $9500 for
playing today's game...

Hey.

Oh, you're home early. Cool.

Cool?

Okay. It's not cool.

You're mad?

What were you thinking?

I mean, what could possibly have
been going on in your brain

to think that it was okay to
talk to my boss like that?

What was I supposed to do, sit
there and watch him rag on you?

Yes. Yeah.

Well, no-- Nobody
treats you like that.

I don't care who he is.

Oh, Griffin, I got fired. Okay?

'Cause of that Xeroxing thing?

No. No, because of you.

Wha--?

So you got fired from some
lousy job you hated anyway.

Big deal.

You don't need to be
working for that jerk.

I needed a recommendation
from that jerk.

I needed this job for college,
and y-you ruined that for me.

I am so tired of this stuff.

I'm sorry, Griffin, but I am.

I used to think it
was cool, you know,

the way that you would show
up whenever you wanted

a-and be aloof and
create all these dramas.

I used to think that that made
you this really romantic guy.

What do you mean used to?

I love you, Griffin,

but stuff has happened to
me, and I am different now.

And there are things that I want.
Only you--

You're just--

[sighs]

You're just still
hanging around.

I mean, isn't there
anything that you want?

I want you.

No. I mean, out of life.

Yeah. You.

That's not enough.

He's not comin', huh?

I kind of doubt it.

What a coward.

Would you, um--?

Would you put this in the
lost and found for me?

Do you even know
if the thing runs?

Cop on the phone said
it was worth 200 bucks

to ship up north, so I
guess that's a good sign.

Well, we're gonna
be here all night.

Why don't I take the
next aisle over?

The guy said the jeep would
be in the first three rows.

So,

Tucker, you ever--?

You ever actually meet Gina?

I was just wondering, 'cause--

'Cause she's a great girl,
a really great girl.

I thought you didn't
even like her.

Will said you weren't a
fan, as a matter of fact.

Yeah, well, I was wrong, but
my point is you shouldn't--

You shouldn't have talked him
into breaking up with her.

Will's his own man. He
makes his own decisions.

Yeah, well, maybe everyone would be
better off if you'd just butt out.

Look, I'm just hanging
out with the guy.

I'm sorry if that
gets your goat.

Gets my goat?

What is that? What is that?
A-a Seattle thing?

Up there with hog calling and--
and-- and jerky pulling?

Oh, I'm sorry. It's not
pretentious enough for you?

Let me see, what was Will called
your little Mexican adventure?

A rite of passage? Now, that sounds just
about phony enough for a guy like you.

Hey, you don't know a
thing about me, pal.

And you know what? I'm happy
to leave it that way.

Damn!

Damn it!

-Look at this.
-[Will] Did you find it?

Big surprise, huh?

What?

-What did you say?
-What did you expect?

You go tooling around bad
neighborhoods in your prep-mobile.

-You're kind of asking for it.
-That's it.

Hey, hey, hey. What's going on?

What's the matter with you?

What's the matter with me?

-Don't know what his problem is.
-It's you.

This guy's a jerk, Will. A total jerk.
You know that?

Come on.

-What are you doing, Bay?
-What?

-Why are you doing this to me?
-What? He's the one--

[Bailey] Who-- What are you--?

What are you--? You're not
taking his side, are you?

You're taking his side?

What are you talking
about sides, Bay?

I gotta ride 3000 miles
in a car with this guy.

I gotta live with him. What
do you want me to do, huh?

What the hell am I
supposed to do?

You just got back?

It's 11:15.

A truck jackknifed.

It took 45 minutes
to go three miles.

Right.

And tomorrow it'll
be foggy again.

And the next day
it'll be traffic.

It'll always be something.

It's just-- This isn't
working, Kirsten.

No, it isn't. You're right.

It's not fair to you or me, which is why
I'm not gonna make the drive anymore.

I'm gonna take one of the apartments
they keep for non-resident faculty.

For a really cheap price, I can get
a room for three nights a week.

So you'd--? You'd live there?

I've gotten them to schedule my
classes Tuesday through Thursday,

which is great 'cause
it's part-time.

And then the rest of the week is totally
mine, and-- And I can spend it with you.

-Four days?
-Yeah.

That's, uh--

That's part-time too.

Wow. Heh. I thought
you weren't moving.

I just cleared out all
this crap I don't need.

Just old junk. What's that?

New junk. Heh.

I thought since the
dorm can't be your home

that maybe your home
could be the dorm.

I got you some empty beer cans,

swimsuit calendar, and, uh,

one of those Nerf
football thingies.

[both chuckle]

Cute.

Pathetic actually, but I
didn't know what else to do.

You know what?

Everybody else--

Everybody else is moving on.

I mean, that's what college
is all about, right?

Starting over and
all that stuff?

So that's what I'm gonna do too.

I never really settled in
up here, because I always--

I always thought it was
temporary, but now I'm here.

-Right.
-Absolutely.

So now it's out with the old--

What's the matter?

Nothing. Just, um,

this.

Will forgot his hat.

We said things would
never change, like--

Like, last week.

How stupid is that?

Nothing changes until
it changes, right?

You really need all
this stuff in Monterey?

I mean, this is all your CDs.

Three days ago you said this
stuff was a fire hazard.

All I'm saying is you don't have
to move everything you own.

I'm not, Charlie. And I'm
not forwarding my mail.

And I'm not gonna give out my number down
there, 'cause I still live here, okay?

[both sigh]

Oh, God, I still have a
bunch of boxes left.

Wait. Wait. Wait.
Could you just--?

Could we just sit for a minute?

You don't wanna get
this done first?

No. No.

All we ever do is
get stuff done.

That's not enough.

I mean, I-- I--

I actually-- I miss you.

These last few days I miss you.

Charlie--

And I don't get it. I--

I thought you said you were
happy with the way things were.

We both said it. That--

That things were really
clicking for us.

Yeah, they are.

Then why would you
change everything?

Because I really want this job.

And I want all of this too.

I want you.

Yeah, well, it's--
It's not that simple.

Okay. Then, we'll work on it.

We'll talk about
stuff, about problems,

and we'll figure it out, okay?

I just...

I keep thinking that none
of this would've happened

if we just decided
to get married.

I don't know. Maybe.

Maybe if we were married,

I would be able to look at the
job and say I can give that up.

But we're not married.

And-- And--

And that kind of sacrifice,
Charlie, I-I-I just...

This is who we are right now.
Th-this is where I am right now.

I-I know it's not perfect,

but I like it like this.

It's okay. I'm not
gonna yell at you.

I'm kind of tired
of yelling at you.

Yeah, that's good, 'cause I'm kind
of tired of you yelling at me.

So anyways, I-- I saw some stuff in
the paper that doesn't look too bad.

There's a messenger job downtown, so
you could ride your bike all day,

and there's a storage place that's
looking for a live-in manager, so--

I've, uh--

Yeah, sort of got that covered.

Oh, you do?

That's-- That's great.

Yeah. That buddy of mine, uh,

made a few phone calls, and, uh,

I'm gonna catch up with the
boat down in San Diego.

Wait, uh,

you're gonna leave?

Yeah. I-I've just been thinking
about what you told me

about needing something else
in my life that matters to me.

Yeah, but I-I didn't say
anything about leaving.

Griffin, I-I thought we were
gonna figure this out together.

And now you're just--
You're gonna run away?

I'm coming back.

I mean, that's the whole point.

It's just things are so
screwy with us right now.

It's kind of my fault.

I mean, you're
starting to hate me.

I don't hate you.

You know what I mean.

I mean, that's exactly what I was afraid
of, that I was gonna screw this up.

If I keep hanging around here,

it's only gonna get worse.

So it's up to me.

And I gotta do
something about that.

About me.

That make sense?

We do this a lot, huh?

Say goodbye?

Yeah. It's kind of weird.

Well, I fixed your mirror.

The door still kind of sticks.

Well, I'll think about you every
time I crawl across the front seat.

And, um, you can fix it

when you get back.

I found your pencil.

You know, the-- the
one you loaned me.

I just-- I thought you, you
know, might want it back.

You want some?

Yeah.

Jule, can I ask you something?

I mean, obviously, you've got a lot
more experience at this stuff.

It was really great
having a boyfriend.

And then it was just over.

And I can't help wondering, man,

what if this is, like, it?

It can't always be
like this, right?

It--? It does get better, right?

Nope.

Get used to it, Claud.
Guys can be a total drag.

Thanks for the, uh, sisterly
heart-to-heart. I'm just gonna go

lie down on the freeway.

No, wait, Claud.

That sounded...

Hmm. Come sit.

God, you know, I--

I wish I could tell you that
it'll be easier next time,

or it'll be forever. he'll be
"The One" in capital letters.

But the truth is,

you never know until you know.

So then what's the point?
I mean, it really--

It doesn't seem worth it.

You know that feeling you got
when you first met Byron,

and then whenever you saw
him or thought about him?

Yeah.

You mean, like--?

Like butterflies in my stomach?

[giggles]

Yeah. Exactly.

It's worth that.

You know, it's worth
the butterflies.

I told Owen that you'd
be home in a few days.

And he didn't get the concept, so I said
it was like 85 episodes of Muppet Babies.

[Charlie] It freaked him out.

Tell him I'll bring
him a present.

So did I get any good mail?

Um,

well,

you may have won a vacation
home in Guadalupe.

Ha. Great.

I'm still getting issues
of Modern Macram�

from the last time I almost won.

What's for dinner?

Kung Pao chicken with extra MSG.
You?

Um, aspartame and Red Dye No. 2.

So how'd it go with
the stucco guy?

Um, he wanted to make
it into a remodel,

but I eventually got him to
talk him out of his vision

and patch the hole.

[speaking indistinctly]

[car door opens]

-Hey.
-Hey.

So you're ready to roll, huh?

Yeah, in a few.

So, um, how's the--?
How's the jeep?

Ah, it drives.

It has a bit of a shimmy
if you get over 60,

but that's probably
a good thing.

That it?

I just wanted to say,

um,

you know, take care of yourself.

Yeah.

You too.

Okay.

So...

Later.
