Original subtitles

Hey, there's Alien vs. Predator at 515 at the Rialto 14.

They have stadium seating there.

Pam, why on earth would we want to go to see a movie when there's one right here

in front of us?

What movie?

It's called Life in the Fishbowl. And admission is free.

Can the ultimate player find love in just one girl?

Well, maybe that girl.

Is Johnny really interested in what's -her -name?

Or is he just drowning his sorrow?

Will my brother ever get over Sarah and find true love with the girl next door?

And final, can the most amazing friendship ever survive the breakup of a

beautiful partnership?

So, Johnny, what's -her -name seems to be fitting right in.

Uh, Courtney and I are a date and a half into something very, very nice.

Very, um, focused.

Focused is good.

I didn't say it wasn't. What happened to hoist the flags, mate? It's time to

rise.

It's called She Wasn't Where I Was. No, it's called Running Scared. From the one

no in your life, you're not ready to fail. I'm filling up the void with a

focus.

Top it?

Thanks, Ava. That looks delicious.

Welcome. Oh, my God.

Susanna, Brayden just told me that you're working with Anastasia Dubois.

How awesome. It would be if I knew what I was doing. I mean... Don't listen to

her. She doesn't start work until next week, and already Ms. Dubois has her in

charge of half of the Western Hemisphere.

Have another one.

It's Friday. Calories don't count. Okay, can you just knock it off? Just knock

it off!

Why don't you tell me what you're really thinking? You think I stabbed you in

the back. But you know what? I did not think my life was going to turn out like

this. I didn't think that I'd be starting a scary new job. Or that I

have time to date, let alone have a boyfriend.

And God knows, I didn't think I'd still be living with roommates!

Have another one. It's Friday. Calories don't count.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Flip mine over in ten.

I like it rare.

Frogman rising from the sea.

That's not a frogman. That's an ambassador from the court of Neptune,

the sea.

Oh, my God, Aunt Ava. Look

who it is.

Is that Dr. O 'Keefe?

He is so much cuter out of the office.

Nikki, I don't think you're supposed to say that about the principal of your

school. No, but you can.

Nikki.

Dr. O 'Keefe!

Oh, hi.

Can I just do that?

Hi! Good to see you. You too.

Are you hungry?

Would you like to join us? Oh, no, no. I wouldn't want to invade your party. Oh,

no. We're really informal around here.

Well, can I at least contribute?

You think it's fresh?

Hey there. How you doing, Doc?

Hey. Woo!

Let me get that beauty on the fire for you.

Hey, Derek, my friend.

Time to learn the art of... Grilling the perfect fish.

All right.

Come on, my man.

It's about ten minutes per side, six inches from the coals.

Sprinkle a little salt on the grill so it doesn't get sticky.

I think Johnny knows how to grill a fish.

I didn't say he didn't. Yes, he did.

Um, Simon, how would you like to try some of my famous Guadalajara -style

on the cob?

Ah, you know, I'd love to, but there's just a phosphorus that's driving the

Garibaldi wild, and I promised the lab I'd get some slides.

Oh.

But if anybody wants to take a dive, there's really something down there.

like a swarm, but with fish instead of a beast.

Well, that sounds amazing.

My gear is buried God knows where in the garage.

Not anymore. South wall, bottom shelf, box marked scuba gear.

Two minutes. Give me two minutes. Great. I have some food. Good luck.

When I see you smile, I know everything's okay. When I hear you

laugh, it's always a brighter day.

Get into my bed, forget to rest. As long as you're with me, we'll be alright.

It's a beautiful day.

It's a beautiful day.

What a beautiful day.

What about that guy?

He was definitely pretty cute.

There has to be a catch.

No, there doesn't. Go on. Ask him what time high tide is.

Wanted for mail fraud in North Dakota.

Collects cocktail napkins from around the world. Something.

There isn't. always a catch.

I feel like I'm in high school again.

Go on. Go say hi.

On the road to Mandalay.

Where the flying fishes play.

And the sun comes up like thunder.

Out of China across the bay.

Wow, I learned that in fifth grade. I can't believe it's still in there.

it's like music.

Music sticks.

You know, I don't think they allow people to sleep on the beach.

Well, worst case scenario, they ask me to move along.

After all, it's the plan.

The plan.

The plan being to have no plan.

What's your plan?

Funny you should ask that question.

Well, good luck with the sand police.

What's the plan?

Oh, how's the brooding teenager business?

Isn't that that friend of yours that helped you with Sarah?

Yeah, and that's her friend who hates my guts.

Wait, you could take that guy blindfolded. I still haven't talked to

that day.

Callie!

Hi!

Hey, come on. Come on.

If you let a little thing like that stop you, you are not the man I thought you

were.

That's my boy.

You want to see natural defenses in action.

Check out Mr. Buffalo Sculpin here.

And see how he's all speckled against the rock, and then dark green against

kelp.

Wow, that's amazing.

I've lived here for six years, and I've never noticed that.

And that snail?

That is cool. Oh, wait, I know that. I know that one. That's a murex.

That is what the ancient Greeks used to make the purple dye for the king's robe.

Fashion Institute.

Well, you know, we had exams. Just like real school.

You know, people want miracles?

They should look at a tide pool.

Organisms with all different kinds of backgrounds living together in perfect

symmetry. Are there any organisms that don't stay put in the same tide pool?

Swimming anemones.

Sophia Kachinia lifts himself out of the substrate and then floats out when the

tide comes in.

Because no tide pool seems like the right one?

Then there's Privenopsis Fernaldi.

He always knows who he is and what type he wants to be in.

Pachinias would probably like to meet Fernaldis for a change.

Usually they're just vibing in, other where the heck am I going Pachinias.

That's too bad.

Pachinias and Fernaldis, they have a lot more in common genetically than they

might think.

But if a Pachinia suddenly had little anemones to worry about.

A nice, stable tide pool might look like the right natural habitat.

Well, it would be a good day for the Fernaldis if evolution took that turn.

Meanwhile, if the Homo sapiens don't move before the tide comes in, they'll

sleeping with the fishes.

What are we, 12?

I wish.

Why can't life just stay this way?

Who says it can't?

I hereby declare us 12 years old. And the only things we care about are

out with our friends.

Beating the pants off Jefferson Middle School in basketball.

And getting grades that are just good enough that our parents don't ask any

questions.

Too well buried? Okay, coming right up.

Don't look at me that way.

What way?

The way I want you to.

Wait a second. Kelly.

How much of looking at me that way is like coming home from a really bad day?

And it all feels really homey and comforting.

But you're really still thinking about Sarah.

Kelly. No.

The truth.

It's complicated.

I need it to not be complicated for once.

See ya.

Kelly.

Kelly.

Hi.

Hey. As usual, my eyes were bigger than my tummy. Can I interest you in a

croissant?

Yeah. The all -fish -all -the -time diet has its limitations.

Thanks.

Hope, I'm not invading your cove.

Well, put yourself on the most beautiful beach on the coast if you don't want

someone to come join you.

Huh.

Wow, that's really beautiful.

Thank you.

Look, I have to ask. I mean, what... Okay.

It's the obvious question.

So?

You know New York City?

Yeah.

Big orange glass office building, Lexington and 38th, Cowan and Rovner

Headquarters. You ever seen it? You can't miss it.

They don't shoot me, but I designed that.

Like anybody would take credit for that monster if they hadn't. All right, well,

I'll have to shoot you. It's my duty to mankind.

You're going to have to get in line.

One day.

I was looking out at the incredible view from my office, and I thought, there's

seven continents out there. There's seven billion people.

Why does that have to be just a view?

So I put down the pencil I was holding.

I went down the elevator.

Can you make a living as a professional beachcomber?

Stuff comes up.

I washed dishes in Vera Cruz.

I taught English. Would you like some?

Riff would smoke sea bass?

No, thanks. I'm fine.

No, you're not.

I'm not. And I have every reason to be fine.

I just got in the up elevator.

Thing is, I left my best friend in the world on the first floor.

Just got in the elevator without her.

I have a terminal case of self -involvement.

It's no wonder I haven't had a date since the Jurassic.

Is that the problem?

Well, it's certainly not the problem.

You know what? I gotta scoot.

See ya.

Okay, and...

Oh, no, I can't put that there. Oh, man.

Hi.

I'm sorry to intrude. Oh, hey. Hi.

No, you're not intruding.

It's nice to see you.

I have read the state educational ethics guidelines backwards and forwards, and

given the fact that I can excuse myself for many decisions regarding Nikki's

academic activities at school,

There's no reason you and I can't each other.

Socially.

Is that your way of asking someone out on a date?

Yes.

You are one of a kind.

Okay.

Uh, Dr. O 'Keefe.

Yes.

That's my way of saying yes.

Um, good night.

Can I?

Sue, which way are you leaning?

Towards wishing the whole thing would go away.

Well, that's easy.

Call him and tell him that you just don't have time in your busy schedule

now. I picked up the phone ten times in the last half hour.

Wait. Excuse me.

I am supposed to be the advice -dispensing adult around here.

Well, it's upside down day to day. Want to read the papers?

I didn't get the early edition.

I don't know why this is so hard for me to decide. It's not like this is the

first time I've ever been invited on a date, for heaven's sake. Well, this time

is completely different.

Why?

Well, first of all, he's kind of... different.

In a good way.

Like, he's a bit of a dork, but he's completely comfortable with his

He's not a dork. You know what I mean.

Plus, he's a grown -up.

Knows who he is.

While somebody else who lives in this beach house and used to be my

Doesn't. And the second of all?

This time is different because it might actually count.

Might. That's all, Nikki.

Just might. And I barely know the guy.

Well, might is big.

And if it might count, if...

Saying yes might actually mean opening a door.

Should I go on, or am I taking this role reversal thing too far?

Go on.

Then it might mean closing one, which you've been keeping kind of half open

since before I was born.

But if somebody behind that door wanted it more than half open, he would have

opened it.

Hey, Callie around?

You don't know how bad Callie's been hurt in her life.

If you care about her, figure out what your trip with her is.

Hey, uh, think they'll bring Hal Jordan back?

They better.

He is the only Green Lantern who can take down Sinestro. All they have to do

have him come out of Kyle Rayner's ring.

Yeah, and then explain that the Renegade Guardians imprisoned him in the ring.

And then took the form of Hal.

Which does explain all the Hal kind of stuff that Parallax keeps doing.

Alright, if you think you're so hot, how about this?

Who's the Green Lantern of Ungara?

Even fewer.

You are actually a weirder person than I am. Okay, okay, how about this? Those

furball things that were rescued by Charlie Vicar. Yeah. What planet are

Um... Uh...

Uh, well, you give up?

Yeah. Axel Bob 4.

I've been defeated at Green Lantern Trivia by a surfer.

I need to go drink something green.

Callie, do you have any... Apparently we can keep Dean 12.

Yeah.

Except we're not.

Are you trying to get to me through my friend?

That was the plan, yeah.

Applying that could work.

Underline could.

I'm just not good with complicated anymore. Callie, I'm not good with not

hanging out with you just because my whole life, they'll twist it upside

Now, whoever made things complicated for you before, I'm not that guy.

I mean, you must have known that when you came up to me on the beach that day.

I did know that.

I am considering granting you one day's temporary probation.

Hmm. Under one condition.

Condition? What's that?

That you spend it with me.

Not the hazy figure in front of you that's cheering you up until the real

comes along.

Me.

Do you think you can meet that condition?

Yeah. Yeah, I can.

And what new adventure did you have in mind?

Oh.

Adventure, adventure, adventure. Lunch.

Person's got to eat. Let's do it.

It's been three weeks, so that's how it ends.

I've talked to my shrink and all of my friends.

I thought this love was great. I thought it would work.

But now I realize you're just a jerk. So thank you.

Thank you.

But never calling me back.

Teach little girls to play like that in Beverly Hills? No, they teach them to

play piano, and their mommies won't give them their allowance unless they

practice. So does that get them to practice?

No, because their daddies already gave them a credit card.

Of course.

I have a...

conference call at 10 o 'clock with someone in some godforsaken time zone

somewhere and suddenly the question of whether or not a sportswear line

successfully test marketed in Italy is going to fly in Spain does not seem like

the most important question in the world.

What are you doing to me?

I'm corrupting you.

Second time in two days.

Why did Johnny insist on staying in to see a movie with the what's -her -name

jour? Instead of going to see jazz at Sandy Bob's, which was the original

He's thinking, if Ava and Simon went to a 7 .30 movie, even if they stopped for

six ice creams on the way home, why aren't they home yet?

And why is the strange silent boy staring at them?

We'll see if it'll happen if he looks away.

The door slams.

Steps on the walkway.

Will they?

So much more tense and romantic when they don't.

Hey, everybody.

How was the movie?

Uh, movie?

Oh, uh, we didn't go to the movie. We just...

Walked around.

Where?

Promenade. And we just, you know, walked and talked and... Um, I'm starving. Is

there any food left?

What, it couldn't spring for dinner?

Johnny. Kidding.

Ava, I, uh, I just got a call.

I checked my messages and an old buddy of mine from UC San Diego... Hey,

everybody. Um...

He's running the annual reenactment of the Battle of San Pasqual, and he's

a couple of dragoons. Now, if you don't mind dressing up a bit and looking a

little silly, you get to fly our musket and almost lose California to the

Mexicans. Do you want to go down with me tomorrow?

Reenactment? What is that, like dress -up?

I always wondered who the people were who did that stuff.

Well, now you know.

I'm not sure. I have a lot going on here. Two days, total.

We get to sleep in an authentic replica of an 1846 army tent.

Not in the same tent, of course.

No, of course.

It's just, uh... It's a trip to the 1840s.

Can I let you know tomorrow?

Yeah. No, actually, you know, I can't leave till six anyway, so, um, yeah,

me in the morning.

Okay.

Will she take a wild chance at happiness?

Or will she bend to the pressures of guilt, obligation, and regret?

Good morning.

Hi.

Couldn't sleep either?

For an elaborate change.

You okay?

What are your thoughts on fighting Mexicans with a musket?

It's just we live in a fishbowl and the kids are watching.

All of a sudden if I want to go away overnight with a guy, it's a big deal.

Come here.

Let's just do that thing that we do where you don't think, you just answer

away, whatever comes in your head, okay? Okay.

Do you really want to go away with him?

Hold that thought.

Anastasia has me on a 24 -hour call. Good morning.

That's really fast, Monday night. Sure.

Well, yes, as long as my new passport gets here by Monday.

Absolutely. Okay.

Passport to where?

Oh, God, this ridiculously fast trip to go meet Anastasia's boring partners in

Paris. I mean, if you can call the inside of a taxi cab, a hotel, and

taxi, Paris.

Where were we?

Um, well, six o 'clock.

Derek wants to make pancakes this morning and I still have to go to the

and get the ingredients.

Time to start the day.

I put a good act on this conference call, but I just couldn't do it. I mean,

couldn't make myself.

cares about the Spanish changed to casual sportswear. I mean, it just

matter.

I mean, is that guilt or fear or what?

What do you think?

So now that you've seen a few of these continents, you ever think you'll get

back on the elevator?

You know, try it again, older, wiser?

No.

Hey, swim time. Why don't you join me?

Time to pace the day.

No, I meant join me as in...

I'm planning on taking a six o 'clock bus to San Francisco.

There's a shipping port there bound for Kuala Lumpur.

Sometimes I could use an extra hand.

Hey, Cook.

Join me.

You take care.

Ginger, mango, green, pepper, chutney?

Susanna's specialty. First rule of cooking in this house. Anything good

separately is also good together.

Like avocados and peanut butter?

Yeah.

Avocados and peanut butter. Second rule, you knock it, you try it.

I'll get that.

Hi, Bryden.

I thought that... I'm here for the weekend.

They let you do that in level one.

But you have to be the parent the whole time.

I was afraid if I called, you wouldn't come to the phone.

I really need to talk to you about everything that happened.

Can I come in?

Actually, Sarah, um, I was... It's okay.

I had a really great day, Brayden. No, Kelly. Just call me later.

Bye, Sarah.

You look good. Thank you.

Hey.

Oh, hi, guys.

Why don't you come in? I'm just going to borrow Brayden for a second.

Mickey? Yes?

Would you like some lemonade or something?

Please make yourselves at home.

Look, I think part of the problem here is you doing what you think you're

supposed to do.

Don't say anything to her that you don't really feel, okay?

Mostly, it's incredibly boring.

Group therapy, four hours a day, and there's about a million chores.

Oh, and no songs containing questionable material.

You get caught humming the wrong chili pepper song, that's three hours solitary

confinement on the handball courts.

Ouch. That's pretty messed up.

Maybe it's not.

I mean, I hate every second of it, but medicine never tastes good.

Even when it's saving your life.

I can't believe you're saying all this.

No physical contact with the opposite sex.

That's a level three privilege along with makeup and hair products.

God, I'm so bored with me.

So, tell me about you.

How are you?

I don't know.

Figuring it out.

Pretty good, I guess.

Better since I've been gone.

No.

Yes.

You're doing so great.

If I am, it's only because of one thing.

What's that?

You.

I would have died the first night.

And then this thought came to me that what you did, telling my parents, was

because you loved me.

And then it was like this horrible, dark room I was in was suddenly filled with

a million roses.

I can take knowing that I'm going to be locked away for the next year of my

life.

As long as I know that when I get out, whatever the amazing thing that happened

between you and me isn't going to be dead.

What?

Brandon, you have to say something.

Sarah, how am I supposed to know what I'm going to be feeling like in a year?

When...

I don't even know what I feel about anything right now.

What? So now that I'm not jumping your bones, the thrill is gone? That's not

And you know that.

You know I care about you. That thing we had.

I don't know.

Say it, Brayden, in English.

Whatever it is, I can take it.

I don't know if I feel for you.

What you feel for me.

I'm actually kind of happy we can...

Finally just tell each other the truth.

Me too.

Yeah?

When you break one of the rules on home visits, you're supposed to confess when

you're back and take the consequences.

I think that was worth three hours in the handball courts.

Hello.

Oh, hey, Simon.

You know, I'm still trying to figure it out. You see if I can clear the deck.

No, that would be great.

Okay.

Bye.

Simon, eh?

Oh, well, he said he could stop by around six, you know, on his way out of

and if I was up for it, I could grab a toothbrush and hop in the car.

You know, um, last week, before the fashion show, the person behind the half

-open door may have been wanting to open it.

I was here just as he left for the beach about ten minutes ago.

Oh, no.

I don't think so.

Hey, Ava.

You want to play some volleyball?

Come on, me and you. We'll take them on.

No, it's okay.

All right.

Hey, hey, don't cry. I told you not to.

Get the ball. I got it.

Everything okay?

No, I just came out to get some air.

Plenty of that out here.

Are we playing or are we play?

Here you go. Here.

Nothing.

Really. Go on. Go win one for Playa Linda.

I'm gone, you're still there.

I'm gone, you're still there.

I'm gone, you're still there.

Hi. It's not simple yet, Callie.

But it's getting simpler.

Getting?

Yeah.

I'll take getting.

Good.

Hey, Ava.

Dr. O 'Keefe is here. I told him that you're racing to get some rayon ready to

roll out to a retailer in Royalton.

Really? He said no problem. He'll wait out on the patio.

Bless you.

Not that you asked, but I think you should march into war.

I think we're leaning that way.

Come on.

Oh, hey, dear.

Hey. You playing Tom Sawyer?

No, I'm playing me carrying my beach gear on a stick over my back.

You ever read Tom Sawyer?

Yeah.

Yeah, I don't think any of us would know how to be American kids if it wasn't

for that book.

Millions of kids never read it. They do fine.

Hey, Derek.

Hey.

Did you see those crazy jet trails? Yeah, yeah.

Listen, my man, can you come with me for a sec? There's just something I want to

show you.

Sure. All right. Come on, my man.

I'm going to do this. A big part about being a man is fighting your best fight.

But an even bigger part is knowing when that battle's over.

There's something that your Aunt Ava wants to check out. But she hates to

of hurting the people she loves to the point that she would hurt herself just

keep that from happening.

You know what I mean?

That's her choice.

Wrong.

The ones with the choice?

You and me, babe.

Right here, is us.

And I've made mine.

I know that might be hard for you to hear, but... And I've made it.

You're the one she wants.

If that was true, I think she would have told me by now.

What do you want me to do?

You?

I want you to figure it out.

You're the man for it, right?

But you just better start figuring fast.

Come on, hit me.

Simon.

You know, it's... Dr. O 'Keefe!

Check out what I can make this thing do!

Check it out!

Wait, is that the model with the working spring suspension?

Oh, you bet it is. Look at how it handles, huh?

Oh!

That is awesome!

Look at that.

There we go.

You want to try?

We should probably hit the road if we don't want to lose California to Mexico.

So today, how about we go for some deviled eggs with strawberry jam and

licorice? You know, actually, I'm getting a little tired of that one.

Oh, you want to get that?

Is Sarah here?

What? I thought you were driving her to school at four. When I got to her room,

she was gone, along with the money I keep in the safe.

She took off, Brayden.

Do you swear that she isn't here?

I swear.

School thought it wasn't a good idea for her to see you so soon, but I'm just so

bad at telling her no.

What did you say to her?

I don't know.

Nothing.

Nothing. How far could she get?

She'll ask him back. You have no idea how much money there was in that safe.

Listen, if I see her, I'll call you.

I'm not sure what it all means.

I just want somebody to talk to.

Talk to me.

into the future This world is getting too deep

And I'm not sure if I really want to

And I'm not sure what this all means

I just want somebody to hold on
