I wasn't even expecting you.

How come you didn't
use your own keys?

Were you waiting out there long?

No, not very.

So anyway, we're
just sitting there

and he just walks in, like,
"Hello, I'm your grandfather."

And nobody knew what
to say, you know?

And I don't... I don't really
know what it means, that he...

that he showed up.

I mean, maybe...

Maybe I guilted him into
wanting to meet them.

But, then... Then,
can we trust him?

You know, is he
gonna stick around?

The guy's definitely got a history of
flaking out on people, that's for sure.

- Take off your jacket.
- I wasn't planning on staying.

Apparently, neither are you.

What?

Well, I ran into Warren
Danziger at the coffeehouse.

He had a message for you.

He said that he got into
Hampshire State, too,

and if you were looking
for a roommate...

And I said, "What are
you talking about?

You know, Bailey's not going
back East for school.

He's staying here
in San Francisco."

But apparently that's not what
your guidance counselor told him.

Okay.

Okay, look. First of all...

First of all, when I applied
to Hampshire State,

you and I, we weren't even...
we weren't even together yet.

And I never thought that I
would get into that place.

It was, like, this huge long shot.
Really.

Okay. Yes.

Yes, I got accepted.

But you're not gonna go, right?

- Well...
- God.

Sarah, listen, before
you get upset,

I-I know what you're
thinking, and...

And you have to know that
me going away to college

isn't gonna change anything
between us at all.

What are you talking
about, Bailey?

You're leaving. You're
going 3000 miles away.

You're going as far away
from here as you can get.

- That changes everything.
- Sarah, listen...

You're someone to be
talking about flaking out.

Okay. Okay, I'll remember.

Okay!

- Okay.
- Who's she talking to?

Jake.

Grandpa Jake. Sounds
kind of weird.

Yeah. Bye.

Okay. Bye.

- What did he want?
- I called him. Just to talk.

You let her call him?

It's a free country.
What's with you?

I was thinking about him all night.
And you guys...

I can't believe it. And
I can't believe that...

this is actually happening.

- You know, that he came back.
- Claudia.

You know, he's not exactly how I pictured
him. But, I mean, it doesn't matter.

It's just like, you know, all of a
sudden, we have a whole family.

- We already have a family.
- Well, yeah, no, I know, but...

I'd slow down a little, Claud.

We spent, what, two
hours with the guy?

Look at his track record.

So you're not even gonna
give him a chance?

Let's see if the guy sticks around.
That's the most important thing.

I bet he will. I mean, after
what he said last night...

What did he say? He
didn't say anything.

He asked a lot of
questions about Mom.

And he said that he
was a terrible father

and that he felt guilty
for leaving her.

Whoop-dee-doo. Like that was
hard to admit 30 years later.

Look, Jule, I'm
angry at him too.

I just... I want him around.

Yeah, well, I don't.

And we're doing fine. I don't know
what the hell we need him for.

We don't need him for anything.
I mean, that's not the point.

Anyway, we're doing something
together this afternoon.

- You are not.
- I am too.

No, you're not. We don't even know
this guy. He's practically a stranger.

You're not going out by yourself
with a stranger. Forget it.

Look, he's my grandfather.
I mean, you can't stop me.

Charlie, you trust this guy?

Then go with her, Jule.

Look, I am... I am just
going away to college.

People go away to college,
like, constantly.

Right, no big deal. That's
why you kept it a secret.

No! That's not... I
don't know, look...

I guess... Okay, I was
afraid of how you'd react.

- I didn't wanna upset you.
- Oh, God, don't give me that.

- What a load of crap.
- Okay, look.

I am a senior, right?

So didn't it ever occur to you that I
might think about going away to college?

No, it didn't, okay? It didn't.

And maybe it's because you never
mentioned that you were interested.

And you talked about state
schools all the time.

- I...
- Last week!

So, no. The idea that you'd wanna
leave me never occurred to me.

I don't want to
leave you, Sarah.

Remember these?

Key to your house.
You gave it to me.

And you said that that would be a place that
I could go, where I'd be safe and loved.

- Yes.
- Thanks.

Sarah, don't you think you're...

Don't you think you're
overreacting here a little bit?

Listen. There are...

There are tons of
school vacations.

There's Christmas break.
There's spring break.

And you can come visit
me whenever you want to.

And we'll talk on the
phone all the time.

And we'll get the e-mail thing,
so we can write each other,

like, four, five times
a day if you want.

Like that's even close
to the same thing.

Like 3000 miles away
doesn't matter.

Sarah...

Look, it's not like
I'm leaving tomorrow.

You know, I'm not.
We still have...

We still have six months.
That is a lot of time.

It's more time than
we've been going out.

- So, six months?
- Yeah.

Okay, so we can spend pretty
much every minute together?

Right. See? Exactly.

And I can fall even
more in love with you?

You could.

Yeah, and then, it'll hurt
that much more when you leave.

Call screening. It's gotta
have call screening,

because I cannot stand
talking to Wayne anymore.

Last week, what was it? Oh.

His skin was breaking
out from loneliness.

I mean, my God, we've been
apart five months now.

Enough already.

Can I get some help, please?

Get some help for Wayne.

Hey, you should look at
cell phones, Charlie.

It's getting impossible to track you down.
I call you at home,

they think you're at Salinger's.

I call you at Salinger's,
they say you're at home.

Nobody ever seems to know
where you are anymore.

Looking for a beeper?

No. Not really.

They're pretty
popular these days.

A lot of kids have them.
Big with doctors too.

High-profile business types.

Guys cheating on their
wives or girl...

Sorry.

How much did you say
these things were?

Well, if anything
strikes your fancy,

you just say the word.

Thanks, Grandpa.

The same offer goes
for you, Julia.

Um, no, thanks. I don't like
buying in places like these.

Really? Why not?

Well, just because
something's from the past,

everyone seems to think that it's
so precious and so valuable.

Most of the time, it's
just a big ripoff.

Of course, you never know, uh...

either way, unless you
take a really good look.

For instance, what do
you think of this?

- It's pretty cool.
- Yeah.

Well, let's buy this.

Wow. Thanks.

What do you think? Have you got
anybody in mind to put in there?

Mm, I don't know.

Then, I can help you with that.

Now, here

is your Mom

when she was about two
years younger than you.

Wow.

Jule, look at this. Look
what Grandpa bought me.

It's okay. I know exactly
what he's buying, Claudia.

I couldn't help but
notice that yours was...

Well, the hands were broken,
and the crystal was cracked,

and the strap was frayed, so...

- Wow.
- You like it?

Yeah. Yeah.

But it's not like there's
a special occasion.

It's February.

We're celebrating February.

The shortest month of the year.

I forgot to get you something.

It's okay. This is not
about even exchanges.

- Mm. You know what I could do?
- Hmm?

I could, uh, fix that
window in your bathroom,

the one where the sill's warped?

- Charlie...
- No, it's no problem.

I mean, I've got the
tools in my truck.

Charlie... I don't want
you fixing my windows.

Why not?

Because I have people
who can do that for me.

And that's not what
I need you for.

What is that?

I got a beeper.

The kids.

I didn't know what else to do.

I mean... And I know
you just saw one,

but I swear there are
at least two, and...

Ew, I may have to move!

Well, there was only one in the
trap, and we got rid of it, so...

I think you can probably
come down from there now.

Good. Good.

As long as I don't have to
spend a minute here alone,

then I promise not to be afraid.

Emily, uh, I don't know.

It's been kind of a...
a weird, long night.

- And I thought I'd just...
- Oh, no. Oh, no, you don't.

You've been bugging me about
this for a long time.

And now you're here, and
I'm here, and it's late.

And you are not going anywhere.

Okay?

- Okay.
- Good.

Um, here's the thing.

Could you carry me
into the bedroom?

Because I am not setting foot
on this floor ever again.

Okay.

- Not now. I don't wanna talk.

No. It's not about that.

Somebody that wants to meet you.

Hi.

I'm, um...

Yeah.

Yeah, I know who you are.

Last call, everybody.

We're out of here in five.

Hey, man.

Give them twenty more
minutes, would you?

Thanks.

Sarah. Hey.

I tried to call you last night.

Yeah, I was... I was tired.
I had the machine on.

So, wow, huh?

How did it go? I was thinking
about you all night.

It went okay.

Really? Just okay?

Because, I don't know,
it really seemed

like you guys were connecting.

What did you... What
did you talk about?

You know, stuff.

Stuff. Huh.

So, was it kind of
how you expected it?

You know, Bailey, I really don't
feel like blabbing about this.

Oh, okay. I just...

I just wanted to...
see how things went.

Are you gonna... Are you gonna
get together again, maybe?

Yeah, we are. We made plans.

- Really? What are you gonna do?
- Bailey, they're our plans.

Robin's and mine. In
fact, we're probably

gonna be spending a
lot of time together.

So, you're just gonna
have to get used to that.

What are you doing?

Sarah, what, are you...
Are you punishing me?

You're mad at me, so you're shutting
me out? Is that what you're doing?

Look, Bailey, you have stuff
in your life that's private.

Now I do too. What's
wrong with that?

You know, I was just thinking

how depressing it's
gotta be for him.

You know, to go home every
day to a lonely hotel room

and some dinky little fridge,

TV remote nailed to
the night table.

When he could be staying
in a real house

with his family.

Look, Claud, since
he hasn't asked,

I really don't see the
point in offering.

Yeah, but... You
know, I was thinking

it would be nice for us
too, to have him around.

I mean, to have him right
there, all the time.

Have who right where
all the time?

- Grandpa.
- What about him?

Claudia wants him to move in.

Really?

Move in with us? Really?

- I'm thinking no.
- What are you worried about?

I mean, he's gonna
steal the silver?

No. I just think we should
all give it some time.

I mean, technically,
yes, he's our family

but he's... he's
also a stranger.

- But he's trying not to be.
- He's right, Claud.

He's right. It's too soon. We
should give it some more time.

So, how long do we wait?

I mean, you really think
we're gonna get close to him

by seeing him a few times a week, all
dressed up, and on our best behavior?

You think that one
day, all of a sudden,

he's just gonna feel like
he's really our grandfather,

and that's when we
give him the key?

Claud, I'm not talking
about waiting a year.

- I'm just saying...
- Why wait at all? What for?

He's here, and he wants to
be a part of our lives.

And you know what?

He's not so young.

I mean, what if
something happens?

What if something happens before

we really get a
chance to love him?

These are so lovely. Thank you.

You're welcome. Yeah, is
it okay that I'm here?

I mean, do you need to
get ready or anything?

Oh, no. No, it's really
nice that you're here.

You know, there's this other
gal in the show. Big diva.

I mean, God help
anybody who knocks

on her dressing room door
while she's preparing.

I don't know. I
just go on stage.

I turn it on. Come
off, turn it off.

I know. I know. I do
that, too, with singing.

You know, no big process.
I just kind of do it.

- Exactly.
- Exactly.

Yep.

I'm really glad I'm getting
to see this before it closes.

So, do you have to look
for another job now?

Nope. Thankfully, the
producers like me enough

to keep me for the tour.

So, I will be dying
across America

for the next six
to eight months.

Oh, God! I just gave away the ending.
I'm sorry.

Sorry. Anyway, it's
a big break for me.

Thank God I won't have to be
auditioning all the time and...

What?

What is it?

You're leaving?

Well, not permanently. But
for a little while, yeah.

You know what? I'll
give you my itinerary.

Maybe we can do the pen pal bit.

I don't... I don't understand.

Why would come looking for me
if you were planning to leave?

What...

Well, I just... I
just thought...

We've made a great start, Sarah.

So it's not like we're gonna have to
begin all over again when I get back.

And, you know, to
tell you the truth,

it made it a lot easier for me
to know that you were out there

and wondering about us,
and wanting us to meet.

Wait, you knew?

Yeah. From Bailey.

- At the coffeehouse?
- No.

He tracked me down
about a month ago.

And I am so glad he did. I am.

Because I think it feels right that
we should be friends, don't you?

Yeah.

Yeah. Well, I should
let you get dressed.

Oh, I'm sorry. I assumed that you'd
all talk this over together.

Well, we didn't. No one
said a word to me.

Because I wouldn't have just
barged over here like this...

I better just go check
back into the hotel, huh?

- Yeah.
- Yes.

Yeah, I think that would
be a really good idea.

It was my mistake.

Just tell your sister I'll
call her from the hotel.

Claudia!

Claudia!

What, are you, like,
on fire or something?

Did you tell Jake that
he could live with us?

Yeah. Why? Why, is he here?

No, he is not here.
I sent him away.

He is not moving in with us.

Charlie and Bailey
said it was okay.

- I don't care!
- I don't have to listen to you.

You don't get to decide. Three to one.
You lose.

What is the matter with you?
Why are you being nice to him?

- Because he's my grandfather.
- No! He is not!

He is nothing to you!

He... He is just the man
who ran out on Mom.

So you're just gonna forgive him for that?
Is that it?

- I didn't... - God! What gives you
the right to forgive him for her?

- Julia... - Do you have any idea
what it was like for her? Do you?

Did she ever tell you
what it was like?

- No.
- Well, she told me.

She told me what it was like to have him
leave her without a goodbye or a note.

Without ever calling to say once

that he loved her or
thought about her.

And what it was like to think
that that was her fault.

And you.

Just because you want someone
to take you for ice cream

or to some stupid swap meet.
I can't believe you!

I can't believe how
selfish you are!

Why don't you just go to the
cemetery and spit on Mom's grave?

- Julia, that is... - 'Cause
that is what you're doing!

Come on. You're kidding, right?

Why on earth would anyone
hate foreign films?

- Um... subtitles?
- Oh...

Look, it's got great reviews.

And believe me, Charlie,
when you see this woman,

you won't care that
there are subtitles.

Now, go get in line.
I'll get the tickets.

- Charlie!
- Oh, hi.

Hey, hello. Hi.

Hi.

Are you, uh...?

- Are you here alone?
- What? Alo... No. Um...

Actually, I'm here with, um...
that... that woman,

you know, the... the
birthday that I catered?

That woman. It's sort
of a business thing.

She... She wants me
to do another party.

And she was thinking, like, this...
this Italian theme,

because, uh... because
her fiancée is Italian.

From Italy. Roberto.

Oh, really? She's engaged?

Yeah. Didn't I mention that?

Yeah, it's an engagement
party that she's planning.

And it's, um... It's a lot of
business riding on it for me.

- I really couldn't say no.
- They're sold out.

I know. You're devastated.

Good thing I got here early.

Hi. Emily. I think
maybe we met before.

Anyway, congratulations.

Charlie told me.

Oh. Yeah. Thanks.

Anyway, uh...

Well, if they're...
If they're sold out,

then, uh, we should
probably get going.

Yeah.

It looks like you're going in.

Oh. Yeah. I guess I should.

- She's an old friend.
- Hmm.

Jacob Gordon, please.

Oh, he's not?

Yes, this is Claudia Salinger.

Tell him...

Tell him that I'm not gonna be
able to get together tomorrow

like we planned.

No, he doesn't
have to call back.

Tell him not to call back.

Thank you.

- Oh, hey! I didn't expect...
- You know what? I would

I would really... I would
really like to know

why you think it's okay to
lie to me about everything.

Why is it okay to
treat me that way?

- What?
- You saw her, Bailey.

A month ago. You saw my mother,
and you never told me.

- Sarah, listen... - And it's like
every day a new lie with you.

Sarah, come on. What...

What was I supposed to do? Huh?

She said she didn't wanna see you.
Was I...

Was I really supposed to
come home and tell you that?

You can be mad at me
about a lot of things,

but you cannot be mad at me about that.
You can't.

You just... you just can't.

What?

She's going away.

What?

In two days she's going on
tour for a longer time.

I don't know. I'll probably
never see her again.

I didn't... I didn't know that.

And I'm so angry

at myself for being surprised.

Why... Why am I surprised
that people leave?

'Cause... 'Cause
that's what people do.

You know, people leave, right?

I gotta be more careful.
Remind me of that, okay?

- Hi. Are you waiting for me?
- Yeah. Yeah, I was.

Because I wanna know what
the hell you're doing.

Showing up one day, and
then taking off the next.

- Excuse me?
- So... So, what?

You met her, right? You got
her out of your system

- and now you're gonna walk away.
- Oh, God. All right.

First of all, you are
way out of line, kiddo.

And second of all, I'm not walking away.
I'm taking a job.

Yeah, well, that's not
how Sarah sees it.

- Well, that's too bad.
- Yeah, it is.

You know what? I don't have
to explain myself to you.

Look, I... I came to see her

to see what she looks like,
and to know that she's okay.

And to let her do the same thing with me.
And that's it.

Well, you picked a
great time to do it.

Two days before
you're leaving town?

It's like you're walking
out on her all over again.

- I am not...
- And you know what?

And this is the incredible part. I'm
the one who's getting blamed for it.

What are you talking about?

All I wanna do is go away to college.
That is it.

And that is not so much to want, right?
People do that all the time.

And I've been counting
on this for so long.

Only now, with you
skipping out on her...

Is that why you're here?
That's what your problem is.

- No.
- I get it. Now I get it.

No, you don't!

I am here because of Sarah.

Because... Because
it is so unfair

to just come walking
into somebody's life

without even thinking about
what you might mean to them,

or what it might mean to them
when you just walk away.

Well, I'm sorry, but I didn't
make her any promises.

Did you?

Claudia seems more focused,
more conscientious.

Her problem-solving
skills seem sharper.

Great. How late do you think
you'll have to be here?

She's maintaining
an A-minus average.

Because I thought maybe we
could get a bite or something.

And aside from a few late
homework assignments,

there's really nothing
else to report.

- Emily. - So, we can do this
again in a couple of months.

Emily! Enough with the
professional stuff.

Aside from that,

I never wanna see you again.

What?

You think I'm stupid?

I saw that woman touch you
and straighten your collar.

And I'm sorry, but you don't do this...
to your caterer.

Oh, God.

Can I explain?

Will you let me?

Sure. If you have
something to say

that's gonna make a
difference, you tell me.

Right.

Emily.

I was so careful
not to get hurt.

But, uh, what are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do, you know,

when you start to feel
something for somebody?

You gotta take a chance.

You have to admit, it's kind of
a sick joke that this happened

the day after I slept with you.

Anyway, um... I made
it a rule not to cry

at parent-teacher conferences,
so just get out of here, okay?

I'm sorry.

I never... I didn't mean
for this to happen.

I swear. And...

I know it doesn't
seem that way, but...

You could, um,

be a little more careful
of people, you know?

You could have been a
little careful of me.

Am I doing something
that is so terrible?

- No.
- No, I know I'm not.

You don't even have to answer that.
I know I'm not.

Okay, then.

Only now, I'm just
the next person

waiting in line to
disappoint her.

And I really don't
wanna do that.

So I'm, like, I'm trapped.

And it just... It
just feels like

that's how it's always been.

You know, and how
it's always gonna be.

Whenever I want
something for myself,

there's always somebody else
that I gotta take care of first.

Owen or Claudia.

Or Sarah.

Well, it's your life, Bay.

You're allowed to be a little
bit selfish sometimes.

Right.

Right.

It's unbelievable, huh?

The one time that I get a break.

Some jerk in the
Admissions office

probably lost his eyeglasses.

Misread my transcript.
And I get in.

And it's the best thing that has
ever happened to me in my life.

Maybe it's the second best.

Maybe Sarah's the best.

Ah, whatever I choose...

What a mess.

Just so you know, we had a pop quiz
in Miss Schrader's class today.

It was the first pop quiz we had

since the last time
you guys had a fight.

So, all I'd like to know is,
what'd you do this time?

Um, Claudia, you know what?

I'm not so sure that
now is the time to...

She found out, didn't she?

- About bachelorette number two?
- Hey, that is none of your...

Yeah.

- She kind of did.
- I knew it.

Listen, I was gonna
talk to you about it...

Save it, Charlie.

People don't change.

And given your record,
it was my fault

for thinking you'd do
anything but screw up.

It's my fault for thinking much more
of a lot of people in this family.

It's, like, I wish
that just once

you'd surprise me.

I'll see you guys tomorrow.

Bye.

Could you move, please?

It's gonna be pretty hard to see out the
windshield with me up here like this.

Look, Bailey, it's been
a really long night.

I'm exhausted, and I
just wanna go home.

Sarah.

Sarah, wait. Wait a second.

I've been thinking, and...

And I'm not gonna go.

I won't go.

You won't?

It's freezing there
this time of year.

Who needs that?

- I can't tell you that.
- What?

No, no, no.

Come on, Thurber.

Thurber, you lazy
good for nothing.

Okay. Fine, that's it.

Thurber.

That's it! I'm going myself.

What are you...

What is this? What
are you doing here?

Uh, this is a...

A letter that I've
written to all of you,

explaining why I'm
headed out of town.

Right.

There's not much
point in staying.

Doesn't seem to be a
future for all of us.

No. I think that's right.

This is my old... My
old pocket watch.

I used to tell your mother
that this had magical powers.

And, uh, she'd swing it back
and forth in front of my eyes,

pretending that she
was hypnotizing me.

I was going to leave it for her,

and I don't know why I didn't.

And then, over the years, I
was going to send it back.

But every time I'd sit
down to write a letter,

I'd get as far as, "Dear
Diana," and then I...

I'd like you to have it.

I don't want it.

Oh, please.

I don't want things from you.

- We're family.
- I don't care.

We don't have that many
people besides each other.

I don't care.

Someday you will.

Someday you're gonna
care very much.

And it may be too late.

You wanna avoid that

at all costs.

At all costs.

You wanna avoid letting
it be too late.

You waited thirty years. I
don't feel sorry for you.

I feel sorry for my Mom.

And I feel sorry for me, because
I should have had a grandfather.

I want to try.

I want to try with you,
Julia because you...

Well, standing there, you...

You're just like your mother.

I'm as close as I'll ever be

to seeing her again.

Please?

Okay. Okay.

I'm just trying to...

I wanna... I wanna be
really clear here.

I wanna know exactly what you mean by...
by "an old friend."

Jared got me started
in the news business

before he moved
over to corporate.

He and I see each other whenever
we're in each other's cities.

See each other how?

Because it sure as
hell didn't seem like

you were talking shop
downstairs just now.

Well, what do you want
me to say, Charlie?

Oh. I'm sorry you saw that.

It certainly wasn't my intention

to wave Jared's and my
relationship in your face.

Let me understand this.

You're sorry not that you're
sleeping with another guy,

but that I found out about it?

Please don't take the moral
high ground here, Charlie,

because, trust me, you'll lose.

And what's that
supposed to mean?

It means, I know about you
and your little friend.

Irma, Emma, Emily?

Well...

I... You...

That... that's over.

And I assume you broke it off

because you saw the
error of your ways?

Guess not.

Guess she found out and
ended it first, huh?

Your turn.

Okay.

Yes, look. I... I didn't
handle that well.

And I'm not saying that
what I did was right.

It wasn't right. It was wrong.
And...

But the truth is...

The... the difference is...

The difference is...

Yes, tell me what the
difference is, Charlie.

Well...

The difference is, is
that I feel bad about it.

And obviously, Kathleen,
you don't give a damn.

"'Excellent', said Mr.
Lion, who was perched

atop the toy chest with the
other stuffed animals.

'I've also taught
you how to roar."'

Yay!

- That was a good one, eh, Owen?
- Yeah.

Let's try some other
form of amusement.

- What about the slide?
- The slide.

There we are. It's a long
time since I did any of that.

Well, I'm gonna put some tea on.
You want some?

Yes, I'd love some tea,

as long as it isn't any of
that sissified herbal stuff.

Okay, you got it.

Who uses this? You or Charlie?

I don't believe you.

I don't believe you're
sitting out there with him,

all friendly and kissy-kissy
and everything.

I mean, after what you
said to me about Mom?

Claudia...

So, it's like I'm evil for even
talking to him, but you're allowed

to just change your mind. All of
a sudden, he's your best friend.

No, that's not it. Look,
Claud, I'm sorry.

Is that why you said
that stuff to me?

Just so you could have
him all to yourself?

- No.
- Then how come all of a sudden

you don't care about
Mom's feelings?

No, I do. I do, Claudia.

- Then why is he here?
- Because...

Because...

I've been trying to figure out
what she would have done.

I mean, what she would have done
if one day she opened the door,

and there he was,
standing on the doorstep,

wanting so badly to apologize.

And the thing is... he
hurt her so much, Claudia,

that she wouldn't
have forgiven him.

Well, then, why would you?

But I think she might
have been holding Owen,

or maybe you would have been
practicing in the living room,

or I would've been doing
my homework on the stairs,

like I used to.

And she would have
thought of us.

And she would have said to him,

"It's too late for
the two of us.

But you know what? I
have five children.

And maybe you can mean
something to them."

Don't you think she
might have said that?

I mean, doesn't that sound like
something she might have said?

Well, maybe this is too
big of an imposition.

I don't know. I mean,
you tell me if it is.

But, um... Amanda just
hates traveling with me.

I mean, stuck in that box
all day, who can blame her?

So, I was wondering
if you wouldn't mind

keeping an eye on her?

I mean, while I'm gone.

You're giving me a cat?

Just lending, actually.

Oh.

Oh, okay, so I guess
this is kind of like

a consolation prize, right?

- Lose a mother, gain a pet.
- Hey.

No, I mean, I guess I
should feel grateful.

You know, it's a guarantee
that you'll come back.

After all, you love your cat.

What do you want from me, Sarah?

I don't know.

Something.

I wanna know that
you care enough

not to just disappear when
we're getting started.

I wanna know that
I matter to you.

And the only way I can prove
that to you is by staying?

You can't make rules like that.

Why? Why can't I?

Because it's not fair.
That's why.

You know, you just can't dictate
what we're gonna mean to each other.

You have to let what's
gonna happen just happen.

Yeah. What if this is it?

I mean, what if this is
as close as we ever get?

Well, I... I can't
promise, Sarah.

I mean, I don't know
what's gonna be.

But, you know, you gotta trust

that all the ways
that we're alike,

and all the things
that connect us,

means that our relationship isn't
as fragile as you think it is.

It's not gonna disappear
over Poughkeepsie.

How you know that for sure?

Well, I don't know.

But you see, Sarah,
I'm okay with leaving

because I know I'm coming back.

Gotta have a little
faith, Sarah.

I don't know how Bay managed it.

'Cause she was dating Will, but
then he got her back and all.

Julia and Justin, they were,
like, so mad at each other.

Then, all of a sudden,
they were just, like...

I mean, like this... You have to
pry them apart with a crowbar.

Uh, I'm with the
family historian here.

Ah, you mention how many times
you've been grounded lately,

or did you conveniently leave
that part of the update out?

Hey. My life is an open book.

- Yeah.
- Well...

Wait a minute. Where are
you going with that?

Well, I was just gonna get it out of
your way. Take it down to the basement.

Well, it isn't in my way.

I think we ought to leave
it here for the time being.

- Why, you going somewhere?
- You only just got here.

Well, I will be
going out of town

for a couple of days
every now and then.

You know, I've got a lot of business
concerns in a lot of places.

In fact, next week, I'm gonna
have to go to Phoenix.

For how long? I mean...
you're coming back, right?

Oh, I'll be back. I promise.

And while I'm gone,

I want you to take
care of this for me.

I don't like to travel with it.

It's got a lot of
valuable stuff in it.

- What's this?
- That's a medal.

Got it in World War II. I
got that for being wounded.

Caught a piece of shrapnel.

Cool. Got a scar?

Sure I've got a scar.

- You have two wedding bands.
- Huh? What?

Two wedding bands?

Oh, yeah. Well, I'll
tell you about those.

Once I thought that
I'd lost mine.

And I was so afraid
that your grandmother

would have a fit
when she found out,

that I went out and I
bought another one.

You know what you
could do with that?

I've seen people wear them
on a chain around the neck.

Really?

Really.

Cool.

I, uh, can't stay.

Okay. Well, uh, thanks
so much for stopping by.

Here's the thing you
should know about me.

I generally like to
keep my options open.

Yeah, no kidding.

I haven't had many big
relationships, Charlie,

just lots of little ones.

Hey, I know the type.

Fill up on appetizers 'cause you don't
like the looks of the main course.

God, please don't be glib.

I don't wanna not give a damn.

I mean...

I don't wanna be the kind of
person who doesn't give a damn.

I mean, I could give a damn.

I mean, I do

give a damn.

About you.

Yeah?

Yeah.

So, uh...

What I was thinking is, and
this is just a suggestion,

how about you give me
your little black book,

and I give you mine,
and we just, sort of,

see what happens?

I meant that figuratively.

You actually have a black book?

Oh, no. Give that to me.

Oh, no.

- Wow.
- What?

I don't even get a star?

I can work on that.

Did I say I can't stay?

I... I can't stay.

I'm going.

I'm gone.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Application to State.

"Choose one word that
best describes you."

Hmm, I can think of a few.

But I don't think they'd
help you get into colleges.

Ha-ha.

Hey, guess what. I got a cat.

- You did?
- Yeah.

It's kind of on a loan, actually.
It's Robin's.

Can I see that?

Yeah.

Hey! What are you...
What are you doing?

Look, you'll get one
of those parka things.

Keep you warm.
