Original subtitles

I don't know, Sarah.

it looks kind of

expensive to me.

what with the "frpl"

in the "bdrm"

and the "dishwr" and all.

what is this, a closet?

uh, no, actually.

this looks like a...

second bedroom.

second bedroom.

Sarah...don't you think

this is a little...

extravagant for

your first place?

unless...oh, duh.

you're planning on

finding a roommate.

actually,

I was hoping

that I'd already

found one.

me?

wait a minute,

you were thinking

that the 2 of us would--

yeah, why not?

look,

it would get me off

your family's sofa,

and it would get you

out of the house.

you know, I could

drive you around

until you get

your license back.

come on, it's

the least I can do

after what my father

did to you.

you know,

and if you can't swing

your half of the rent,

I can make up

the difference.

no problem.

I don't think that's

such a good idea.

yes, it is!

yes, it is.

of course it is.

don't you want

your own place?

well, sure, I do,

but...

You and me have

been doing this

"friend" thing...

pretty well,

and I think if

we lived together,

it just would

complicate it.

sleeping under

the same roof...

seeing each other

walk around

in our undies...

don't you think

that'd be...

well, weird?

no.

Sarah, come on.

you're the one who--

who drew the line.

I'm just trying

to respect it.

look...

Bailey, I haven't

done this before.

been on my own.

and I know I did

the right thing

by walking away

from them

after what they

did to you.

then it felt

like a big step,

and now it feels huge.

I know that, but

you shouldn't make

a move like this

out of fear.

you're gonna be ok.

we're gonna find you

some place great.

ok?

well...

apparently there's

a nice, clean, safe stud

on the third floor.

it's a studio, Bailey.

there's a studio.

Yeah...yeah...

yeah--no, actually,

it was August.

yeah. No, I have

the invoice right here.

August 12,

new transmission,

balance due.

that--that's ok.

just pay me the 600.

...and $89.

look, I don't loan out

money, all right?

so, next time you don't

feel like laying it out

up front,

put it on

your credit card.

now, look, this

is the fourth time

I'm calling you, man.

I'm not gonna

call you again.

next time, you're

gonna hear from my--

yeah, is this the pay up

collection agency?

yeah. I own

a small business,

and I need some help.

(knock on door)

that was

kind of rude.

who was that?

what do you

need help for?

that was, uh...

advertising.

I was, uh, thinking

about doing some

advertising, you know,

bus shelters and benches

and all that kind of stuff.

wow! That's...

that's really creative.

you're gonna be

like a mogul soon.

how's your day?

you first.

man, what's

the point of scheduling

appointments anyway?

calm down, would you?

it's easy for you to say.

it's easy for me?

hey, I'm the one

who's on probation here.

and it's like

you could have

a little bit of courtesy

'cause

I'm sweating this, ok?

I know. I know. Sorry.

but this is just

the worst possible day

for me, ok?

I got to drive you back,

then I got to go

to the restaureant.

I got to leave there

early, I got to go home,

jump in the shower.

you got to jump

in the shower?

yeah.

I got a date tonight.

a date?

Joe and franny

set me up,

and she sounds

perfect, you know.

really promising.

so, man, I need this to...

what?

is that a pimple?

bay?

is it?

woman: Mr. salinger.

I'm glad we could

make this amusing for you.

no time served...

no, ma'am. The judge--

I know. You're

in school. Sf state?

I'm a sophomore. Yeah.

where are you living?

at home, but--

that's good.

home is good.

well, I was hoping

to move out...

actually.

you're not going to

tell me that I can't--

can you afford

to move out?

well, I need to

get a job first.

a job's good.

and we're going to start

your community service

this week.

school talks...

you know

about this program?

we go in and set up

special assemblies.

then you talk to kids

about your experiences.

I understand.

the program is at...

Grant high school

this Friday.

You know,

these

chicken pot pies

aren't bad.

I can't find

her address.

she is gonna think

I'm such a flake.

I'm supposed

to pick her up

in 10 minutes,

and I can't find

her address.

well, where

did you put it?

gee, claud, if I need--

you want to

help me here?

(telephone rings)

hello?

oh, hi. Hi!

no. No. No,

he hasn't left yet.

he's, uh...Ha ha!

he's right here.

yeah.

it's her.

Lucy? Hey.

hi. I'm glad you called.

I'm actually running

a little late.

um, I wrote down

your address, and then

I couldn't read

my own writing.

good one.

what?

oh.

really? No kidding.

uh-huh.

well, I've heard

that the patch

is very effective.

huh?

well, you must be--

no, no. Of course.

I think you owe it

to him, too.

well, you've

got my number.

her ex-boyfriend

finally quit smoking

and agreed

to couples therapy

so they're going to

give it another try.

what a waste

of anxiety, huh?

Bailey: Hi.

my name is

Bailey salinger.

my--

hi.

some of you

may remember me.

my name is

Bailey salinger--

what are you doing?

um...

I have to give

this speech about

alcoholism at Grant

day after tomorrow.

you have to what?

I know.

I know, I know,

it's like

this horrible joke.

I mean, I thought,

"community service?

big deal.

how bad

could that be?"

well, is...

is my class

gonna be there?

the whole school.

can you even...

can you imagine

what that's gonna

be like for me?

for you!

hey, you know what?

I can use your help.

just like 10

minutes, tops.

just listen to me

read this speech

and stop me if

I start sounding

incoherent.

please.

ok.

Ok.

so...ok.

hi.

my name is

Bailey salinger.

some of you know me

because I was a senior

here 2 years ago,

and some of you may

know my sister Claudia

who's a fresh--

what?

does it suck?

it sucks. I hate this.

so don't do it

then, Bailey.

if you hate it--

I mean, making

you go back

to your own school,

that's like...

it's really

a crappy thing to do.

so? I don't

have a choice.

sure you do.

I mean, there's...

there's lots of

other schools out there.

you can...Tell them.

tell them you'll do

2 schools a week.

I think you should say no.

say no.

Listen, uh...

my date canceled.

(louder)

my date canceled.

oh, that's too bad.

so you guys don't have

to watch Owen or anything.

oh. All right.

oh, no,

actually, it's ok.

we're watching

on the waterfront

and Brando just

gave Eva Marie Saint

the most

incredible kiss.

mm-hmm.

man on TV:

come down here!

come down here!

we want to see you.

Charlie!

come on down!

second man: What do

you want with me?

Charlie, I think

he's in trouble.

woman: Be careful!

(movie music plays)

Charlie!

and I would be willing

to go to any other school.

or schools, even.

I could do more

than one talk a week

if you wanted.

anything. Just...

going to Grant...I mean,

my own high school...

that's...

character-building.

and--and I know that.

I don't have a problem

with that.

I mean, I've been

telling my story at

aa now for 6 months.

it's just...

god, Grant, I mean...

these are...

people you know.

people who know you.

right.

which means

your story's going

to have

significantly

greater impact on

everyone involved.

you included.

ok, but maybe if...

Mr. salinger,

you don't have

options here.

this is not

an elective you

can switch out of.

this is

a punishment.

it's humiliating,

is what it is.

yes. Well...

humiliation

can be a good thing.

hey! What is

going on in there?

just calm down.

no! I come

to pick up my keys,

and those people

are moving furniture

into my apartment!

it's not

your apartment,

sweetheart.

yes, it is my apartment!

sweetheart, they have

a signed contract.

no! I gave you $1,000

yesterday for first

and last month's rent!

unless you

have a contract--

we had a contract, ok?

we had a spoken, verbal,

whatever contract!

there's no such thing

in real estate.

you got to have a piece

of paper, sweetheart.

would you stop calling

me sweetheart, ok?

will you just give me

my money back?

what money?

why are you doing

this to me?

what are you

talking about?

sir, I gave you

$1,000 in cash.

where's your receipt?

where's your contract?

god, you're...

you are a horrible person,

do you know that?

that was all the money

I had saved.

well, you know what?

I am gonna

take you to court,

and I'm gonna sue you.

oh, jeez, no kidding.

you know what

the judge is gonna say?

"where's your receipt,

where's your contract?"

432.46...

who the hell

is francey montero?

who?

oh. Nobody. How did

that get in there?

you've got

an 8x10 glossy

of her?

it's called a head shot.

she's an actress.

what are you doing,

casting for

a girlfriend?

montero. What about

that name sounds...

Joey montero.

our meat guy.

it's his niece.

he thought

we'd hit it off.

you gonna call her?

nah.

what'd be the point?

I got pretty burned

last night.

I'm not ready

to put myself back

out there again.

remember when

I wanted to play

the paganini

in the west coast

young musicians competition,

only Yvonne Chang

picked it first?

what did you tell me,

huh?

find a new piece?

exactly. You told me

not to quit,

but to get over myself

and find a new piece.

and what did I do? Hmm?

you refused.

you stuck

with the paganini

and Yvonne went home

with the gold.

oh. Well...

that was an extremely

valuable lesson.

So what's

the surprise?

you find

that alternator

for my shovelhead?

is this what

I think it is?

'81 special edition sturgis.

oh, ho ho ho ho!

where'd

she come from?

actually, an estate sale

over in the east bay.

can you believe that?

I was literally driving by

and I caught her out

of the corner of my eye.

look, uh, the electrical

needed some tinkering,

but, uh, she's got

an amazing ride.

I'll bet.

all right, listen.

I laid out 9,800...

which tells you the

guy had no idea what

he had there, huh?

uh, and my costs

come to $700...

oh, and a buddy of mine did

a favor on the transport,

so that won't cost you

anything.

hey, you know what,

man?

I just got

the shovelhead

in July.

yeah. So?

well...I've kind of

filled my toy quota

for the year.

I'm out

of the market.

wait a second now.

you--you told me

to go out and

find you a sturgis

that was in

good condition.

yeah, I know,

I know, but, uh...

no, you specifically

told me to do that,

and that you were willing

to pay more than 10.5.

look, if it's the deal

that you say it is,

you shouldn't have

a problem selling it

to someone else.

I can't afford

to be shelling out

that kind of cash

without a guarantee

that I'm going to

get it back.

you're not listening,

kid.

I'm not buying the bike.

you didn't know

that you should

pay by check?

you had to know that!

I mean, who--

who hands over

a bunch of cash

to someone they don't

even know?

will you cut it out?

I know I'm an idiot,

ok? I know that

I really screwed up.

how much money

do you have left?

I had $1,700, and

I gave him 1,000.

that was all the money

I had saved

from my whole life!

you know, from all

my baby-sitting jobs,

from my graduation,

from 10 years

of allowance,

from every

birthday present

plus 5 saving bonds

that I got for

my sweet 16.

that is so pathetic.

I know.

ok.

you still have

$700 left, right?

right. Right. Great.

except I still

have to buy books

for all my courses

and eat,

and there's not

gonna be enough money

for a new apartment

after what I'll have left,

and I can't give a first

and last month's rent

plus a security deposit.

I can't do it.

well, then I guess

you're gonna have

to get a job, right?

yeah. Yeah. With

a lot of hours, too.

this--this is, like,

my first semester

at Berkeley.

it's supposed

to be great,

right? The time

of my life,

and I'm not supposed

to be spending it

as a cocktail waitress.

you--you have to be

a cocktail waitress?

they make a lot of money.

look, stop, ok?

stop!

I'm applying

for this job,

this...

ticket agency job,

and it fits in

perfectly with

my schedule,

so we'll

work it out.

I'll help out, and

we'll make it work.

ok?

Hey...

hello...

hi.

ohh...

aww. Did you

have a bad day?

I'm tired, all right?

just go away.

no, I don't want

to go away.

tell me

about your day.

Julia...

uh-oh.

something's wrong.

we've been married

less than 6 months,

and already

we're not talking

to each other?

very big problem,

Griffin.

we don't have

a problem.

then tell me

everything

you did today!

come on, tell me

everything you did.

Julia!

ha ha!

cut it out!

ok.

look, I just fix bikes

all day, right?

I just--i just fix bikes.

all right?

I'd rather--I'd rather--

why don't you tell me

how your day went,

all right?

you really want to hear?

yeah.

did you get

any good tours?

mm.

a bunch

of sixth graders.

yeah.

any of the little boys

get crushes on you?

maybe.

oh, really. Well,

let me at 'em, huh?

I want some names.

you know what?

I really love you.

for what?

well, because you're

being so great.

about...everything.

about my job.

and...

you're the one who's

working really hard,

making all the money

around here.

and all you do

is care about me.

that's true.

Salinger's, huh?

any part of the business

computerized?

no, it isn't,

but, uh...

but I'm really

comfortable

on computers.

well, not programming

them, but using them.

good, good, good.

that'll help.

good.

all right. If I

could just ask you

to fill out

a more detailed

application...

great. That'd be great.

and, uh...

I need to go down

a short checklist

with you.

ok, let's see...

you're a citizen?

yeah.

uh, would you be

willing to submit

to a drug test

if management were

to request it during

your employment?

(whispering)

they never do.

sure, yeah.

I'd be ok with that.

ever been convicted

of a crime?

"Have you ever been

convicted of a crime?"

well, yeah.

I'm sorry. "Yes"?

6 months ago, I was

involved in a d.U.I.,

but I've been

in a program ever since,

and I've been doing

community service work,

and, um...

and I'm really focused

on making up for

some lost time,

which is why

getting this job

really means

a lot to me.

and you should know

that I am

a huge sports nut.

I mean,

I practically know

every local team's

home and away schedule.

practically.

I'll be honest

with you, Bailey.

I can't hire someone

with a, uh...

with a record.

would--would

references help?

because you can call

any of the names...

I guess not.

(nervous laughter)

so...you're

probably thinking,

"typical actress,"

right?

"me, me, me"?

so...

Charlie,

tell me something

about you,

besides the fact

that you run

a lovely restaurant

and know your wine.

well, let's see.

um...

I have 4 kids.

I do.

I really do.

seriously?

yup. I'm, um...

I'm kind of

a single dad.

see, my parents

were killed in

a car accident,

and I've kind of

had to raise

my brothers and sisters.

god.

my uncle didn't...

4...

4, did you say?

yeah. And they're

really good kids.

um, Bailey's had

kind of a tough year.

he's on probation

at the moment,

but, um...

(footsteps)

oh. Ah...I guess

we should order.

do you know

what you'd like?

oh, my god.

what?

I just remembered

that I am supposed

to meet with

my scene partner

to rehearse this...

this one-act

that I'm doing

for this acting

workshop.

right now?

I totally

forgot to tell her

I'd made plans.

well, give her

a call then.

there's a phone

right behind the bar.

well, the thing

is--is...

we're supposed

to hook up,

like, right now

on the corner

of Noe and Castro,

and the only way

for me to get

in touch with her

is to go there.

I'll drive you.

no, no, Charlie.

that is so sweet,

but--ha!

but I'm just gonna--

I'm just gonna go,

and...

I'll be back

in a bit.

should I wait

to order?

Probably not.

and you know what?

it's like a whole

domino thing now,

because if

I can't get a job,

then I can't afford

my own place to live,

and I can't afford

my own place to live,

then I'm stuck waiting

in line for the John

until I'm in my late 20s.

hey.

no offense, man.

I'm just...

this whole thing has

got me so pissed off,

and my stomach is a mess,

I got to do this assembly

at claud's school--

hey, claud, what

is the holdup, huh?

I'm sick.

what's the matter

with you?

I've got a fever.

you don't have a fever.

and my--my throat--ahem!

my throat's killing me.

I've got this--

this throbbing pain.

it's just going

"wah wah wah,"

and, oh...

I don't think

I'm gonna make it

to school today.

all right.

get back in bed.

I'll bring you

up some aspirin

and some juice.

ok.

oh, Bailey...

I'm gonna miss

your thing.

mm. How to lose

job opportunities,

your license,

and your self-respect,

all overnight.

it's nothing you haven't

heard before, right?

feel better, ok?

you're kidding me!

Charlie,

what about that girl

that Jack the bartender guy

told you about?

Connie.

aren't you supposed

to be sick?

I'm not that sick.

you know,

the former dancer--

then go to school.

stop changing the subject--

who just moved back

from New York and...

was it...Kerry?

kerry?

honey, what are

you trying to do?

hmm?

I have been walloped

2 nights in a row,

all right?

2 strikes!

and

I am not shooting

for a third.

all right,

Mr. worst-foot-forward,

Mr. shoot-myself-

in-the-foot,

Mr. try-and-love-me-

when-I've-given-you-

every-reason-not-to!

Claudia...

I mean, who leads off

with their crummiest

characteristics?

"hi, I'm Charlie.

I have a frequent

body odor, a limp,

"and a tendency

towards violence.

you want to make that

dinner and a movie,

or just dinner?"

that's not what I did.

let's face it:

4 kids, one of them

on probation,

it's--it's not your

biggest selling point.

ok.

no one wants

a person with kids.

you bury stuff like that.

make a woman

fall in love with you,

and then

tell her the truth.

ok.

you talk to her about

your work with the homeless,

or...or your interest

in going back to school

to study architecture.

the feel of wood

in your hand

when you build

your own furniture.

what it was like

to reopen your dad's

restaurant

after he died.

You are just way

too good at this,

you know that?

just call her.

ok.

wait--whoa...

what...did

your prices go up

or something?

what are you gonna do?

talk to the Japanese,

right?

yeah, right.

uh, look, um...

how about

I take care of this

over the next couple

of months, all right?

yeah, sure.

I'm gonna do that

special for you,

even though

we've been doing

business,

what,

a whole 6 months?

right, ok. Look,

cancel the rings

and cut the pad and

lining order in half.

you having trouble?

no. It's--

you're expensive.

right.

it's a cash flow

thing, all right?

if I can just

get people to

pay up on time--

I don't think

this is gonna work out

for us.

what are you

talking about?

I'm getting

a fly-by-night

vibe here.

find yourself

another parts guy.

don't you think

you're overreacting

a little bit here?

uh-uh.

I know you startup guys.

one month

you write me a check,

the next day,

the good-bye sign

goes up.

check bounces,

you declare bankruptcy,

and I end up

with 50 cents

on the dollar.

I don't need a bad risk.

look, fine. Fine.

I'll just--

give me

the whole order

and I'll write you

a check today.

no. Half in cash.

half in cash...

Hey, we've got food

left over at the end

of the day.

why would

I throw it away

if I can give it

to somebody

who needs it?

well,

I'm sure most people

in your position

don't think that way.

they say, "why bother?"

well, I think it's great.

so, do you make furniture

for the homeless, too?

no. Just for myself.

good.

I think it would be

a little intimidating

to date a Saint.

oh, yeah.

so. Last stop.

so, um...

I had a really good time.

and I hope you call me.

I'll call you.

I mean...

I need you to teach

me to dance, right?

right.

Well...

any chance of me...

oh, I don't think--

no.

it's not about that.

no pressure.

it's just, uh...

it's early and...

I'm having

a really good time.

me, too.

but it's not a good idea.

I, um...

my boys are

upstairs sleeping.

I have 2-year-old boys,

2 2-year-old boys,

twins.

twins.

you're upset.

no, look, I understand

it's a lot to handle,

which is why

I don't usually...

(sighs)

How was possum practice?

guess it was just

one of those bugs

that lasts long enough

to miss fourth-period

assembly, huh?

saw you get on the bus

and go to school.

oh.

thanks for your support.

I do support you,

totally.

right.

I really

felt that today

while I was standing

in that auditorium

spilling my guts

to 500 gum-chewing,

nose-picking kids

who looked at me

like I was some kind

of pond scum.

but...

hey, that's not

your problem, right?

it is my problem...

'cause it's

my school now, Bailey,

and it's bad enough

that I have to go

back there tomorrow

with everyone

knowing that...

that was my brother

up there.

so you're ashamed of me.

go on, claud, say it.

you're ashamed of me.

no, Bailey.

I'm new there.

I'm new there,

and everyone's

still deciding

what--what they think

of everyone else,

and right now,

right now I'm this--

this violin-playing

possum girl,

which--which is barely

acceptable, and when--

when you add...

sister of a drunk-driving

alcoholic to that, it...

oh, come on, Bailey.

come on, Bailey.

I mean,

that--that's what you say

about yourself, right?

that's what you say.

it's like--like

your punishment,

saying that to the world.

only...

why should

I be punished, too?

Lousy, ok?

what, i--

my date.

I'm sorry.

let me tell you

something.

your, uh, your

best-foot-forward

strategy,

that really

worked for me.

it did?

yeah. Yeah.

I didn't find out

that kerry had

2 kids in diapers

until after

I forked out

the $45 for dinner.

(grinding)

who's downstairs?

(washing machine)

oh, for god's sake.

you two don't have

an apartment you can

do that stuff in?

you gotta

come over here?

what?

we were just--

or is it like

some sort of

personal goal of yours

to do it in every room

of this house?

Charlie.

now, wait a second,

Charlie.

Charlie, what is

your problem?

well, for starters,

your total lack

of consideration.

consideration for whom?

we were in the basement,

for crying out loud,

alone.

and what about you?

you could have knocked,

you know.

it's my house.

oh, and it's not mine,

is that your point?

I'm not welcome as long

as my husband and I

are showing affection

for one another?

no, the question is,

can you show anything else?

can you even be

in the same room

without your tongues

in each other's mouths?

well, I'm sorry if it

bothers you, Charlie,

but we're in love.

yeah, and obviously

working real hard to rub

everybody else's face in it.

wow. God,

what happened to you?

since when are

you like this?

Julia, this isn't

about me, all right?

you want

to behave like that,

go someplace else.

I mean, there are

children in this house.

yeah, who've had

to put up with

a hell of lot worse

than a pair of newlyweds

making out,

starting with their

brother sleeping with

his various girlfriends

and inviting them

down for breakfast

in the morning.

don't argue morality

with me, Charlie,

'cause you'll lose.

Griffin and I

have nothing

to apologize for.

You having

trouble sleeping?

yeah.

I keep having this

reoccurring nightmare

that I meet this

great guy, right,

and we fall in love,

and--and I'm really

happy until...

you track me down

and rip my head off

for kissing him

in the house.

what? Oh. Ok,

well, you know what?

you should just stay

out of this, all right,

because you don't

know the history.

yeah, I do.

you're on some kind of

anti-Julia campaign.

no, I'm not.

uh-huh. Ask anyone.

everyone talks about it.

Ross noticed it.

and the other day,

Owen said to me,

"why is Charlie

mad at Julia?

does she need

a time-out?"

you're making this up.

no, 'cause you've

been a jerk to her

ever since she got back

from Europe, Charlie.

I mean, starting--starting

with not even wanting

to come to the airport.

I was

trying to give them

some space, Claudia.

that is the lamest excuse

I ever heard.

that's just not--

and it's like,

they're married.

deal with it.

What's his problem?

I hate it when he

talks to you like that.

forget about it.

he's a jerk.

you know what?

we just won't go

by there for a while.

who cares?

nah, it's just...

is that a new dress?

hmm? Oh.

yeah. I told you I went

shopping yesterday.

I thought you meant

for like toilet paper

and stuff. I mean...

you bought clothes?

yeah. I really

need more wardrobe

for my job,

so I got this and

some other stuff,

oh, and

some boxers for you,

'cause that

waistband elastic

is a joke.

how much did you spend?

I don't know

exactly. Why?

nothing.

I just--i just--

I don't see why you

need a bigger wardrobe.

I mean, you lead

different tour groups

around every day, right,

so you could wear

the same dress for--

for like a week,

and nobody would notice.

heh. You're kidding,

right?

you just should have

said something, jul.

like what, "may I?"

well, maybe we could--

maybe we could

agree on a certain sum

each month or something.

what, y-you mean

like giving me

an allowance?

you want to give me

an allowance?

oh.

ok, I get it.

you're mad that

I spent money

when I'm not

making any, right?

no! No, it's--

yeah,

'cause I'm not pulling

my weight financially.

I'm just

a volunteer, right?

Julia--

no, y-you know

what, Griffin?

I'll take

the dresses back.

look, I didn't

even--

I didn't even

clip the tags

off yet, see?

no, come on.

come on.

look, uh...

you shouldn't have

to take them back.

I mean...

you got this new job

that you love.

of course

you need the right

clothes for that.

it's just I'm...

never mind.

I'm a jerk.

look, keep them.

please?

look, you can even

get some new shoes

to go with them,

all right?

Would it ruin

your lunch too much

if--if I talked to you?

what?

I know that you're

looking for a job,

and I know

that you're looking for

a place to live, and...

I know...

I know that you're

having a hard time.

I found this.

look, all you

have to do is manage--

manage this building

for--look--

"few hours a week.

no skills necessary."

and they give you this--

this whole free apartment

to live in.

you just don't

get it, do you?

what?

you know how you didn't

want to have anything

to do with me yesterday?

Bailey.

well, that's how

everybody feels.

you and the guy that

owns this building have

a lot in common, claud.

Bailey, i--

see, I go down there,

and I fill out

an application

and check off

that little box about

my criminal record--

ok, but maybe--

and there is

no way, claud.

there's no...

Bailey?

there's no way anyone

figures this out.

so, wait a minute.

I go down there

by myself, or you go

down there with me?

doesn't matter.

I'll go with you

if you want.

see, I'm just

the live-in boyfriend.

you're the one who's

applying for the job,

so you fill out

the application.

I don't know,

Bailey. I...

what?

what, Sarah? This,

it is the easiest

gig in the world.

all we have to do is

collect rent checks,

and if something

goes wrong, we call

the landlord.

yeah, but that's

not the point.

what happened to all

these great arguments

about how you and I

living together was

such a horrible idea?

it is a horrible idea.

I'm not

changing my mind.

I'm contradicting

myself.

I'm completely

backtracking here.

great.

Sarah, I loved plan "a,"

but plan "a"

doesn't work anymore.

you don't have money.

I don't have money.

you don't have time

to get a job, and

I can't get a job.

no, i--i know, but--

and besides, I told you

that you shouldn't live

with me out of fear,

and you're not living

with me out of fear.

you're living with me

out of desperation.

ok?

Griffin?

oh, hey. Howie.

uh, yeah.

l-l-listen, um--ahem.

I've been doing

some thinking

about the sturgis

and everything.

well, the deal is, uh...

you owe me 10 grand

for the bike, man.

that's all

there is to it.

I told you, Griffin.

not interested.

I know what you said.

it's not good enough,

all right?

now, you're

a businessman.

you know.

you gotta hold people

to their word.

otherwise, it's like

giving them permission

to walk all over you.

all right, now--

now, I'm just starting

out here, all right,

and I'm not gonna let

a couple of deadbeats

call the shots

on my business.

look, who are we

talking about here, kid?

it looked to me like

you had more bikes

lined up in there

than you could

work on in a week.

I do. I just...

I have some cash-flow

trouble, all right?

(sighs)

if i--i have to go

around collecting

all the time--

if what you're telling me

is that you've gotten

yourself in a little hole,

and you need some

help getting out,

it sounds

like 10 grand's the number

to make you stop sweating

and buy you some time

to do some volume business.

am I right?

wait a minute.

so you do want the bike?

nope.

well...

I'll tell you what.

instead of putting

my money into

a hunk of metal,

I'm gonna

invest it in you.

oh, you are?

mm-hmm.

really?

god.

no biggie.

so you'll owe me.

Hey, were do you think

a couch would go in here?

um...

over here?

on the--

on the diagonal, maybe?

this way?

yeah. Heh heh.

or you know,

maybe--maybe a big, old

armchair right here

so you could read

the paper and look

out the window.

"you could"...

meaning "I could"?

a person could.

you know, we could.

so?

so, um, did you see

that one of the bedrooms

has slightly less

disgusting carpet?

oh, yeah?

yeah.

I'll flip you for it.

Pizza delivery?

that was fast.

Charlie.

how'd you know I was--

I just ordered one,

and Griffin's

working late, so...

what are you...

everybody just bagged out

on dinner at home,

so I thought...

it's got olives.

you like olives.

and I hadn't seen

your new place,

so I figured...

right.

It's nice.

yeah. We love it.

everything's new--

the--the paint,

the plumbing,

the carpeting.

rent's a little steep,

but Griffin really

wanted us to have

a great place.

they kinda cheaped out

on those locks.

you might wanna

upgrade those.

ok.

hey, that wasn't

a criticism.

it was just

an observation.

it's kinda hard

to tell these days.

I don't understand.

I don't understand

why it's so hard

for you to accept

that Griffin and I

are in love.

I don't know.

maybe it's

'cause I'm not...

in love.

I'm not even close.

I keep trying,

but I don't even

have any prospects.

but that's

not my fault.

I know.

I know it's not.

but...

it doesn't help

that you're, like...

gone.

what are you

talking about, gone?

I'm over there

all the time.

yeah, to baby-sit

or to do laundry,

but, I mean, it's different

than it was before.

we used to...

just hang.

you know?

late at night

out on the swing,

or the first thing up,

we'd be reading the paper,

not even talking,

just trading sections.

and it's like...

I miss that.

it's like I...

miss you.

yeah.

I really miss you, Julia.

Mmm.

olives.

olives.

This one look good?

yeah. Thanks.

yep.
