- Previously on "You"...

- Everyone just
calls me Beck.

And you are Joe?

- Goldberg.

A guy needs to
protect himself,

and your name was
a glorious place to start.

The next thing our little
friend the Internet gave me

was your address.

[dramatic music]

- Professor Leahy.

- Professor Obvious
wants to sleep with you.

Your friends

Of course.

- What you really need is
someone to save you.

- Man,

Whatever you think
I did...

obvious hangover aside,
you are, too.

But I've read people wrong
in the past.

One day, I'll tell you
about Candace,

every red flag
I was blind to,

how destroyed I was.

What can I say?
We all have baggage.

But I feel like I'm dealing
with it the right way.

Just let me know
you're okay, okay?

That's all I ask.
This is really annoying, Benji.

[somber music]

- It is annoying.

You're not thinking about us,
you're thinking about him.

I kind of thought I took care
of that for you, Beck.

- Want to start off the class
this morning?

- Sure.
- Good.

My last T.A. was like
a little mouse,

afraid of public speaking.
- Oh, that's my job.

Sounds great, Ethan.

Hey, speed reader.

- Hi, Joe.

- What are you reading?

- This book about werewolves
the girls in my class

won't stop talking about.

It's more about love stuff
than werewolf stuff.

- There should be

Yeah, it's right here.
Here, try this.

- "Frankenstein"?

- Yeah, the monster is
really cool and scary

but also not really
the monster.

- What does that mean?

- Just read it.
You can tell me.

Ethan's got snacks.
Set 'em up.

Now!

- Settle down, Benji.

Let's talk.

Okay, granted I didn't think
too far ahead

when I swung
that mallet.

I just knew Benji was
the worst kind of poison,

the kind you know is bad
but can't stop taking.

So I did what I had to do
to help you, Beck.

And now, there's
an adult human male

in the basement
of this bookstore.

- Somebody!

- The basement's
soundproof.

- Aah!

- The owner loved to
read in peace down here.

I'm sorry.

- I told you,
I don't know who you are,

I don't know why I'm here.
I swear.

- Confession, I have no idea
what to do with him now.

- I'm gonna give you
my family lawyer's number.

He'll get you paid.

- Of course he thinks
I want money.

- You know
who my father is?

- Benjamin Ashby II,
hedge fund manager.

- We have a jet. We'll send
you anywhere in the world.

- Best case, that's somewhere
far away from you, Beck.

Worst case,
that ends with prison time.

Not an option.

- It's a poppy seed bagel,
extra schmear.

- Go to hell.

I don't eat gluten.

It's an allergy, okay?
That shit is real.

Gluten, dairy, if I ate
a peanut, I could die.

- Well, gosh,
whatever can I get you?

- I'd just like a bare burger
wrapped in chard.

Or I could do sushi.

- Sushi?

- My diet is limited.
Please?

Whoever you are,
you're not a killer.

- Oh, how I wish I was.

This would be
much less complicated.

- Let me out of here.

I won't say anything
to anyone.

- He doesn't even know my name.
I can figure this out.

- I'm claustrophobic.

My blood sugar's low.

[dramatic music]

- Is this sugar?

I found it in your wallet along
with three bars of Xanax,

Adderall, half a sheet of,
I think, acid, is it?

- Whatever.
It's not even for me.

I network.
I own a business.

- That's right,
Home Soda.

- It's artisanal.
It's gonna blow up.

- Is it?

Do your investors know
you do heroin?

Or your--your father?
How about your girlfriend?

- I don't have
a girlfriend.

Oh, shit!

That's where
I know you from.

You were in the cab!

Beck's cab!

She--she said
your name.

It's Jimmy. No.

- This is Joe.
He literally saved my life.

- It's Joe!

- Now,
that's a complication.

- Do not tell me that you're
doing this because of Beck.

She's not my girlfriend.

You can have her!

Take her!

- Careful, Benji.

Not winning
any points.

- If you knew her,

you would not be
putting me in a cage

and ruining your life over
Guinevere Goddamn Beck!

Benji's out of your picture.

- So it was just one of those
cheesy diaries with a lock,

but I couldn't
stop writing.

I just--I felt better having it
all down on paper, you know?

And then I did this little
creative writing assignment

and it just blew
my teacher's mind.

She acted like it was the best
thing she'd...[voice fades]

- Honestly, part of me thought
this date would never come,

and now it feels so easy,
so right.

This is how our story goes,
Beck.

- And here I am.

Sometimes you just,
you do things on instinct

because you have to, and
then you scramble, you know.

- Yeah, I kinda know.

- I totally didn't Google
you, but if I did,

I might discover you
aren't on social media.

- Fact, it renders you insanely
vulnerable with zero upside.

I'm an old-fashioned guy.

I like real life.

- What about your job?

- Bookstore manager or--

or international
super spy, which is--

- I mean,
is that your goal or--

- I know I'm in a city
full of people

with--with--with big, fat
neon sign aspirations.

And I know it's not cool to say
and it's not big and flashy...

but I love books,

and I want my life to be about
what I actually love.

- Yeah, I get that.

[cell phone rings]

Sorry, just a second,
okay?

- Yeah, go ahead.

- Hey.

Yeah, I know it's serious,
Peach.

I'm the one who told you
I was worried.

Okay.
Yes, I'm coming.

I'm sorry,
I have to go.

This friend, he just--apparently
he had to go meet someone

and never came back.

It's worrying.

- We can pick it up some other
time if you have to.

- All right, thank you.

- I hope your friend
is okay.

I thought
I'd done it,

gotten Benji
out of our way.

Looks like I have to
finish the job.

- To figure out what to do
with the poster boy

for white male privilege
in the cage,

I need to understand
who he truly is.

And to do that, I need to know
what he cares about.

- This is totally unfair.

If I knew you were
gonna quiz me,

I'd have put more recent
books on the list.

- So bottom line, you've never
even read "On the Road."

- It's very possible to
read a book

without having to read it
in the traditional manner.

You can read
about a book.

- Yeah, I get it.

You're a fraud.

- Here, give me
the stupid book.

I'll read it right now,
you sadistic prick.

Anything to
get me out of here.

- I do understand something
about you now, Beck.

You somehow think this guy
is all you deserve.

You're looking a little gray
and mealy in there.

- Yeah, no shit.
You stole my stash!

- I thought it
wasn't for you.

- Fine.

You happy? It's mine.

my bio professor.

It was fine.

the class.

Ovary up, girl.

to ovary up.

He could knock me
out of my housing.

it out and report him.

that way in the movies.

Maddie Johnson.
I'm Candace's friend.

- Great, a little soon
for you to hear this, Beck,

but here we go.

Wow, Maddie,
that's crazy.

It's so good
to see you.

This is Beck.

- Hey.

So I heard about
you and Candace.

- You know, I thought
we were pretty happy,

but she thought she could be
happier with some guy in Rome.

So you know, I get it.
She's following her bliss.

- It's just how she left
so suddenly.

I mean, we were all
kind of hurt.

- Would you excuse us?
My Uber is here.

It was nice
to meet you.

- Sorry. It was good
to see you, Maddie.

- I just felt like that
needed to be over.

- Let's get you home.

- Be here for Paco.

- What could he possibly
need from me?

- He needs someone who isn't
drunk, Ron, how about that?

What the hell is wrong
with you, punching a wall?

- I'm sorry.

- It's okay.

- It's not okay
to yell.

- Grown-ups do it
all the time.

- Grown-ups
are assholes.

[arguing continues]

Some people used to
yell at me, too, you know.

And I don't want to
be like them.

I got you something.
