- Being in a new relationship is great,

but everyone has a past.

And back when I was young,

technology had a way of bringing that past into the present.

- So, after I took the kid's phone, I turn around and said,

"Not on my school bus."

[loud, forced laughter]

- That is so funny! [laughs]

- Big laugh for a boring story,

followed with a little arm squeeze.

You guys are, like, really into each other, huh?

- Hello. Hello. Hello. [cheering]

Drushi!

- Oh, that's what we called Drew in college

because his dorm room always smelled like fish.

- I didn't know you were coming to town.

- Yeah, I convinced my attending

to clear my surgeries for the weekend,

so we could check out some wedding venues. - Mm-hmm!

Guys, I think we found the perfect venue.

Creation at Wicker Farm.

[impressed oohing] Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's this gorgeous hotel restaurant upstate.

We're gonna spend the weekend there, do a tasting,

and they told us we can invite two extra people. So--

- Yes! In! I am creating a road trip playlist as we speak.

Text me the route because I want Life Is a Highway

to kick in the moment we pull onto...

an actual highway? Huh?

- We were gonna ask Sophie and Drew.

- Sophie and Drew just started dating.

I'm not sure they're ready for a weekend getaway.

- They've been dating for a month.

- No, I know, I know. It's just that, you know, uh,

a weekend getaway's a big step,

and I'm sure these two don't want that just sprung on them like that.

- We're in!

- Oh great! - Good. Fantastic.

- Oh... good...

SID: Jesse,

this is like a couple's thing, you know? You're a lone wolf.

- Cool euphemism for pathetically single.

But, actually, you're way off, okay?

I just started seeing this totally awesome girl named Mia.

And I like her so much, I've even come up with one of those cute little...

punny... couple names for us.

Mia and Jesse. We're Messy.

- Hello, customers!

[overlapping greetings] I hope you all like beer...

because I forgot what you actually ordered.

- Hey, Charlie, here's a copy of your start papers and your passport.

No idea why I photocopied it

because you working here is, like, completely illegal.

- Man! You've been everywhere.

You were in Brazil six months ago?

- Yes. On a family trip.

- I dated a Brazilian once.

I didn't speak Portuguese, he didn't speak English,

so we had to speak with our bodies,

and those conversations went deep.

- Hoo-yeah! - [nervous laugh] Another charming tale.

I do love it when you casually work

your previous sexual exploits into conversation. It's such fun!

- Oh, Charlie!

First paycheck.

New job. New apartment.

I'm going to throw a lavish housewarming dinner party this weekend

to celebrate my many accomplishments.

Ellen.

You can invite that lucky lady who swiped your post-divorce V-card last week.

- What? [impressed oohing]

- No, no, no. I-I'm not inviting her.

Alright, fine. Just us then.

- Sorry to miss it. Sid and I

are actually taking a weekend trip with Drew and Stacey.

Sophie.

Sorry. - Oh. [scoffs]

It's okay.

Who is Stacey?

- My ex was named Stacey.

Uh, we hung out with Sid and Hannah a lot

when we were together, hence the mix-up. - Oh.

- Sorry. Won't happen again.

- Already forgotten about it.

I can't stop thinking about it!

Like, I need to know who this Stacey girl is,

but I have no idea how to find her!

- And I found her.

- What? How?

- Simple. Sid is friends with Hannah,

so I found her account, went to her tagged photos,

scrolled back until I found a pic of Hannah with a Staceycakes92

where both S's are dollar signs. But Staceycakes is obvi gay,

so I started looking for girls who comment on Hannah's posts a lot,

and found a Stacey Fletcher,

who always says Hannah's outfits are fire.

So, I clicked on her IG, scrolled back a couple of years,

and boomshakalakaboom.

Sophie meet Stacey,

or Stacey circa two years ago when she was dating Drew.

- How many boardwalks did they eat ice cream on?

This is not what I needed to see right before Drew and I

have sex for the first time.

- You haven't had sex yet?

So, that's why you nerds were so giggly about your romantic weekend.

- Yeah. And I like that we waited.

Plus, doing it for the first time in a bougie-ass hotel

is romantic as balls.

Now, I'm just gonna be comparing myself to Stacey the whole time

and thinking about how she can roller skate backwards in a sun dress.

- Soph, everyone has exes.

Do not get in your head about this.

Repeat after me.

I... am...

sex.

- [quietly]: I... am... sex.

- Louder.

I! Am! Sex!

- I! Am! Sex!

NEIGHBOR: We get it! You're sex! Shut the hell up!

- Voilà! A dining table.

[clattering]

- Ellen, are we eating on Amazon boxes covered in your unicorn bed sheets?

- Pottery Barn Kids is way cheaper than Pottery Barn regular.

Is that all the food?

- Unfortunately, yes.

I may have overestimated how far a bartender's paycheck would go.

- Why didn't you just buy cheaper stuff?

- Cheaper stuff? What do you want me to do,

serve chunks of pepper jack and pigs in a blanket?

This is the first dinner we're hosting, Ellen.

Tonight will set the tenor for our entire social lives.

- Dude, we're eating dinner with my brother and your girlfriend

on a table made of boxes.

[knocking] - Oh my god, they're here already!

Alright, Ellen. Remember, we are the hosts.

If we're having fun, they're having fun.

Ready?

[forced laughter] Hello!

Ellen was just telling me the most winning of anecdotes.

Come in! Come in!

- Uh, guys, this is Mia.

Mia, this is Charlie, and this is my sister Ellen.

Mia. Hi.

It is so nice to meet you. For the first time.

- Oh, is that real leopard?

- No, this is a shirt

with a design on it.

- Still, how would you feel if I had your skin printed on a shirt?

- Mia is an activist.

She's really passionate about her causes,

which I find to be really inspiring.

- Mia! I would like to give you the tour. [laughs] Uh...

This is the living-dining-kitchen- guest-bed-breakfast-nook-foyer-room,

[whispers]: Hello, Mia.

- Hello, woman who never responded to my many voice texts

after using me for sex.

- Shh... - Oh, it is you!

I was drinking an iced coffee,

and you shouted at me for using a straw even though it actually was made of paper.

- Shh! Look,

I think it would be best if Jesse doesn't find out...

we... - Oh, I'm not comfortable lying.

I leave that to the politicians.

- Please. He's coming off a really bad breakup.

If he finds out that the first girl he's been into since his ex

slept with his sister...

[whispers]: it'll scar him for life.

- Plus, this is our first social event together,

and a brother and sister having shared a lover is a bit unseemly.

- Fine. I'll keep your secret,

but only because I would never want to hurt Jesse.

You are lucky I'm an empath.
