[male narrator]
Previously on "The O.C..."

You know what I like
about rich kids?

- Nothing.
- Let me meet you upstairs.

- Summer?
- Anna? Seth?

[Sandy]
Uh, the gruesome twosome.

You just spent the weekend
painting Jimmy Cooper's house

and I didn't say a word because
I knew nothing was going on.

Right, of course.

[groans]

Uh, do I have a fever?

I think I might have a fever
and/or the chills.

- Since when?
- Since recently.

- So you're not feeling well?
- No, I feel fine.

[coughs]
Just my head's
a little bit achy

and my stomach's kind of weird.
I'm okay.

Come here.

- Uh, you don't feel warm.
- What about cold or clammy?

Maybe you've got the Summer flu.

Yeah. It's November,
but it's possible.

Maybe you need
some Anna-biotics.

- Do you not wanna go to school?
- No.

No, dad, no,
I wanna go to school.

- Okay?
- Okay.

I'm just worried
about infecting others.

No, you're right.
We can't take a chance.

We should just take you
straight to the emergency room.

- Just to be sure.
- Okay.

Or I could stay home

and-and-and try
and sleep it off.

Or you could go to school

face Summer and Anna
and apologize.

First of all, uh, no.

Second of all, hmm, no.

Why would I?

Oh, the Summerflu.

I just got it.
That was good.

Hey, look, it's not my fault

that they both tried
to kiss me on Thanksgiving.

What was I supposed to do?
Uh, not kiss back?

'Say no, stop?
Risk hurting their feelings?'

Well, it seems to me you already
did hurt their feelings.

Yeah, perhaps I did, but
what about my feelings, okay?

Hello, I was the one
who was assaulted.

- I am the victim here.
- 'Hey.'

How come you're not dressed?
You're gonna be late.

And so are you,
or is that what ladies

are wearing these days
to Yogalates?

Taryn called to remind you
that today is the first day

of your Yogalates workshop.

Okay, mom, Yogalates?

Oh, I don't know
if I'm gonna go.

- I'm not feeling well.
- See? It's contagious.

You know, honey, you might
still be a little hungover.

- From what?
- Uh, gee, I don't know.

Getting drunk and passing out
on Thanksgiving?

Hey, I had two glasses of wine.

- Whoa.
- Three.

And I'm sure Julie Cooper
has spread word around town

that Kirsten Cohen
now has a drinking problem.

Which is why
you have to go to Yogalates.

'Cause you know those chatty
little Newpsies will just

assume that you're at home
sleeping off another bender.

And Summer and Anna will assume
you're too afraid to face them.

Hey, I'm not afraid
of Summer and Anna, alright?

- Well, I'm not afraid of Anna.
- So you're going to school.

- And you're going to Yogalates.
- You just like saying that.

Yogalates? I kinda do.

- Yogalates.
- Yogalates.

- You know what I wanna know--
- Yogalates.

...is why these two are so smug.

Because for once,
they didn't do anything wrong?

That's true.

- Here's to ya.
- Back at you.

Enjoy it, boys,
because knowing the two of you

it won't last long.

Yogalates.

Your class presentations
will account for one-third

of your final grade
along with your term papers

and of course, the final exam.

I'll be dividing the class
into two-person teams.

Each team will be responsible
for presenting

a detailed account
of a pivotal event

'or a period
in European history.'

'Now, I've already had quite
a few partnership requests.'

'However, in all fairness
to the other students'

I will select the teams
myself at random, okay?

Lauren and Kenny,
the French Revolution.

'Ryan and Luke,
the Spanish Inquisition.'

'Stephanie and Bobby,
the Protestant Reformation.'

'Stephanie, are you listening?'

'Stephanie?
Miss Savage, please.'

- You and Luke?
- I know.

Oh, holy unholy alliances.

See, this is why
I asked Mr. Bendis

a week ago
if we could be partners.

To avoid a situation like this.

Why? Who did you get?

Uh, Marcy Ross and I are doing

Cortez and the Aztecs.

Hey, I like Marcy Ross.

She's got a good smile on her.

It's innocent, but it's knowing.

You're going after
Marcy now too?

Hey, hey.
I'm the victim here, okay?

Don't tell me,
tell Summer and Anna.

And, hey, eventually, you might
wanna tell, uh, Marcy too.

Mm-hmm.
What are you and Luke doing?

That was me ignoring you,
by the way.

Spanish Inquisition.
I'm supposed

to meet him at his house
after school.

You're going into the belly
of the beast?

You're gonna go
into the heart of darkness?

Hey, it's not gonna be that bad.

I mean, who knows, you guys
might even end up being friends.

- Hmm.
- You think?

No, it's too weird.

I mean, my ex-boyfriend
hanging out with my boyfriend?

What are you guys
gonna talk about?

I can only think
of one thing.

So I talked to my guy
at the SEC and your clients

and they all agree that
if you make full restitution

by January 1.

But that means
selling the house.

Well, it also means avoiding
criminal prosecution

and jail time.

Look, I can't sell
the house now.

It's almost the holidays.

I can't do that
to Julie and Kaitlin.

They wouldn't have
to move out right away.

You know, just have the realtor
show the house

when Julie's out
and Kaitlin's at school.

'What if she says no?'

I mean, she's got a name
on the title too.

What if Julie won't sell?

What choice does she have?

She can't afford to live there
if you're in jail.

Now that she's got Caleb Nichol
in her pocket.

[Summer]
'You had lunch with him?'

[toilet flushes]
No, I had lunch with Ryan.

Seth was just, you know, there.

[Summer]
'I cannot believe you.
Coop, where is your loyalty?'

'What did he say?'

Nothing.
I'm not getting involved.

[Summer]
'Oh, that means
he said something.'

- 'What did he say?'
- Nothing. I told you.

[toilet flushes]

[Summer]
'Hello.'

- 'What did he say?'
- What did who say?

Seth!

Oh, it's you.

[sighs]

You're, like, flossing
at school.

Do you have any idea
how much bacteria

accumulates in your mouth
between lunch and dinner?

No, but the fact that you do
tells me everything.

Look, if you want him,
you can have him. I'm done.

Uh-uh. Thanks, but that's okay.

Right, because you couldn't
possibly be interested

in someone
that's interested in me.

No, because I couldn't
possibly be interested

in someone
who treats women that way.

Oh.

So how much bacteria?

Like a lot?

A lot.

Thanks.

Hey, I was hoping
I'd bump into you.

I wanted to..
H-hi, Summer.

And Anna hanging out together.

Wow. Wow, that's, uh,
that's awkward.

- Not really.
- Well, I meant for me.

Um, how are you guys?
You guys good?

- You guys getting along?
- Yes.

In fact, we were just
about to go to the library

to do some research.

We were?

- Yeah.
- Uh-huh.

- 'The library.'
- Mm-hm.

- For books.
- Books.

Yeah, and then we thought
we'd go shopping, right?

- Uh, South Coast Plaza?
- Sounds good.

- 'Okay.'
- Alright.

Okay.

That doesn't sound good at all.

♪ Come on now honey
bring it on bring it on yeah ♪

♪ Just love me well ♪♪

- Hey, guys.
- Kirsten, you made it.

How are you feeling, sweetie?

Julie told us you were under
the weather at Thanksgiving.

She did?

Oh, well, the holidays
can be so stressful.

I could go for a little hair of
the dog myself right about now.

We'll see you out there.

- Hey, wait up, guys.
- Julie.

Oh, Kirsten, you showed up.
How are you feeling?

So did you tell everyone
I was drunk at Thanksgiving?

Well, everyone was wondering
where you were, so..

I was at the office working.

Well, hey, it's okay.
I mean, we're all friends here.

Well, if we're all friends

why don't you start
acting like one?

[doorbell ringing]

[indistinct chatter]

Hi. Ryan, isn't it?

- Hi.
- Luke just got home.

- He'll be right down. Come in.
- No, it's mine!

- Give it! Give it!
- Stop!

- The head!
- Just give.

Guys, guys,
this is Luke's friend Ryan.

'Ryan, this is Eric and Brad.'

- Give it now.
- Stop.

- Who wants a snack?
- Me.

- Me.
- Ryan?

- Hello.
- 'Dad, you're home.'

Ha ha ha! There they are.
How are you doing?

So can we play
some ball later, please?

Uh, you know what, kids, I'm
just home to drop off mom's car.

Uh, one of the belts
was misaligned.

I had them change the oil too.
Sorry, fellas.

Hmm.

You remember Luke's friend Ryan.

'They're doing
a school project together.'

- Oh, yeah? What about?
- Uh, Spanish Inquisition.

Uff! Not one of Western
civilization's proudest moments.

I was a history major at USC and
now I sell cars for a living.

Oh, don't listen to him, Ryan.
He owns three auto dealerships.

God, mom. Brag much?

She's just being proud of me.

Come on, let's just do this.
We got a lot of work.

Yeah, me too.
Gus is outside.

I'll see you tonight. Ryan,
keep him on his toes, please.

Luke, SC Notre Dame
this Saturday.

Thought we'd drive up
about noon.

- Tailgate.
- Yeah, cool.

Ryan, I don't know
if you're a Trojan man

but it's gonna be a good game.

'You're more than welcome.'

- 'Come on, give it back.'
- 'It's not yours!'

Guys!

So how do you wanna do this?

Uh, I don't know.
I was thinking--

'Cause I got a bunch
of books from the library.

I pulled some stuff
off the web.

'Uh, I was thinking
we could do, like'

'a screen show on my PowerBook.'

My dad's got a film scanner
at the office

color LaserJet, PowerPoint.

We could just pull some stuff
here and then head over there.

You know or not.

No, no. That-that sounds good.

Yeah.

[dial tone]

- 'Hello?'
- Hey, it's me.

- Can you talk?
- Yeah.

I'm just packing up
some of Marissa's winter things.

I was gonna drop them by
in the morning

if that's okay with you.

Yeah, yeah. That's-that's great.

What's going on, Jimmy?

Look, I, uh,
I had a meeting with Sandy

and it looks like I have to pay
everything back by January 1.

Jimmy, it's the holidays.

I, I don't have
any other choice.

What are Kaitlin
and I supposed to do, hmm?

- 'Where are we gonna we live?'
- You live with your mother.

Or Caleb's.

No, no, we can't
and we shouldn't have to.

This is my house, too,
and Kaitlin's

'and we're not selling.'

Julie, I could go to jail.

Maybe you should, Jimmy.

Have you ever thought
about that?

'Maybe you deserve
to go to jail.'

[phone disconnects]

Dad?

Hello?

Dad, you here?

I don't know.
He must've gone home.

Nice, huh?
They're giving these away.

Oh, nice. It's in.
Check it out

450 horsepower, 8-cylinder.

[Luke sighs]

Dude, you have to get in

[exhales]
Wow, man.

[Luke]
'The stereo's insane.'

♪ She's not there ♪

♪ You always leavin' me alone ♪♪

Hey, is that your dad?

[Luke]
'Oh, yeah, and that's
his business partner, Gus.'

We should go say hey.

[indistinct conversation]

[music continues]

[alarm blaring]

- If you tell anyone--
- I won't.

- Go! Let's go!
- Luke?

No. Luke!

[sighs]
Sorry, I'm late.

- I slept through my alarm.
- No, it's okay.

How'd it go last night?
You didn't call me, so--

We were working pretty late.

Did you meet his mom?
She's really great.

Seemed nice, yeah.

And I'm sure his dad
was out of town?

Uh, no, he was there.

Really?
'Cause he's never around.

He's got these dealerships
in other cities

and he's always traveling.

What?

Nothing. Just, uh..

I need some coffee.

Okay. I knew you guys
were gonna talk.

So what did he say about me?

Nothing.

Fine. I'll go grab Seth.

'Wait.'

S-something h-happened
last night.

'But I told Luke
I wouldn't say anything.'

Is it, is he okay?

What is it?
Ryan, you can tell me.

You can't tell anyone,
not even Summer.

- Especially Summer.
- I won't. I swear.

Because I'm not
even telling Seth.

You can trust me.
I won't say a word.

I promise.

Well, apparently some of us
are on Central time.

Yeah, sorry.

So how was your date with Luke,
your new study buddy?

It was fine.
Some for the road?

Yes, I would like
something for the road.

It's called gossip.

Was there any, uh,
any cross burning?

Any, uh, goose-stepping,
small Taiwanese family

locked in the basement? What?

Not so much. Fruit? Bagel?

Uh, yeah,
a bagel would be good.

Yes, so would some information.

Dude, you went
behind enemy lines.

Come on, the parents.

What's the deal? Cyborgs?

Supremacists? Vegans?

We just ended up at his dad's
dealership, looking at cars.

You guys friends now?

First, Summer and Anna.
Now you and Luke.

They came out
of the bathroom together.

Then they went off
to the library together.

Together.

Stranger things have happened.

These are two people
who hate each other

brought together by their
even greater hatred of me.

It's like, it's like
Luke Skywalker

and-and Darth Vader teaming up
to destroy the Emperor.

- Hey, we should talk about--
- We got nothing to talk about.

- Our presentation?
- I'll finish it myself.

Alright.

What are you looking at, queer?

Somebody writing new material?

Alright, go with what works.

I, I gotta get to Spanish.

So I guess this means
you and Luke are not friends

which I find oddly comforting.

I promise.

Over there?

- Is this seat taken?

Cool.

So did you study
for the bio thing?

- Kind of.
- Well, I didn't.

Don't worry,
all you have to remember

is kittens prefer cream
or fish, generally speaking.

Excuse me?

Kingdom. Phylum. Class. Order.
Family. Genus. Species.

Wow. You're, like,
really smart, huh?

Compared to what?

Well, me.

Summer, you're smart.

Well, smart enough
to sit next to you.

'What was that kitten
thing again?'

Kittens prefer cream or fish,
generally speaking.

Or if you're not a cat person

King Philip comes over
for good sex.

- Definitely not a cat person.
- Right.

That's really good.
Thanks.

[laughing]

♪ A long time ago
we used to be friends ♪♪

I am so sore. Are you?

I'm fine. You must not
have stretched properly.

Are you okay?

Sandy told me about the house.

Nothing to tell.
I'm not selling.

Julie.

'Julie.'

If you and Kaitlin
need somewhere to live

I can find you a house.

My dad can find you a house.

Not according to him.

Not without compromising
our relationship.

He said that?

So I told him if that's true

we don't have to have
a relationship anymore.

So now we don't.

I had no idea.
I'm so sorry.

Well, you'd think
you'd be celebrating.

Go ahead, tell everybody
that Caleb Nichol dumped me

my husband's going to jail
and I have no place to live.

What are you waiting for?

'I told everybody
about Thanksgiving.'

'Now's your chance to get even.'

If you need anything,,
let me know.

[laughing]
Oh, my God!

You guys, I just ran into Betsy
on the elliptical trainer.

She was getting her car
serviced this morning.

Okay, come here,
come, come, come.

'Okay, you can't tell anyone'

but you are not going
to believe this.

[clears throat]
Okay.

I gotta tell you, Jimmy

I've never seen you
hit the ball like that.

- You crushed it.
- Creative visualization.

- Julie's head.
- Get a realtor, show the house.

- But she--
- Julie will change her tune.

Once word spreads that
the SEC is investigating her

as a possible co-conspirator,
she'll forget about it.

- They are?
- I can make a call.

Thank you.

- I'll get this one.
- 'Thanks.'

You know, I gotta say,
you've-you've just been

incredibly cool with me.

I, I, you know,
considering everything.

'You know,
I-I really appreciate'

you know, you just not
saying anything

and I know
you only heard it from

from Kirsten's point of view

'but I, you know,
I want you to hear it from me.'

Uh, that-that whole thing
was just a huge mistake.

'I'm really sorry.'

Jimmy, what the hell
are you talking about?

Kirsten didn't, didn't tell you?

Tell me what?

Um..

Um, you know

when, when Julie kicked me out,
I was lost

and Kirsten came over
to help me set up my place.

And, um..

...I..

...kissed her.

Now she was totally mortified.

I, you know, I..

And I apologized immediately.

She left, uh, faster
than that, I mean..

'And-and she didn't tell you'

'because she didn't,
she didn't wanna'

'you know,
she didn't wanna hurt you.'

'It-it meant nothing.'

'So she didn't wanna
hurt you over, over'

over nothing.

Which now..

...I've done.

Creative visualization, Jimmy.

I'm trying hard not to see your
head as something I should hit.

Look, I'm-I'm really sorry.

I, I, you know,
I just didn't want there

to be any secrets between us.

[cell phone rings]

Mission accomplished.

Hey.

I have some news,
but I'm only telling you.

Oh, my God. Coop, you are
not going to believe this.

Did you hear about Luke's dad?

I haven't heard
about Luke's dad.

Hey, I have crazy news for you.

It's about your woman problems.

No, it's definitely not.

I heard his dad's favorite
show is "Dawson's Crack."

I heard it was "Ever-woody."

Wait, Ryan.

- Hey, man, look--
- Hey. Who'd you tell?

Listen, I'm sorry.

You're dead.

Everyone knows.

- Yeah, well, who'd you tell?
- What?

- I didn't tell any--
- Was it Summer?

I asked you
not to say anything--

Why do you just
assume it was me?

Because I'm the only one
who knew

and you're the only one I told.

I didn't tell anyone.

I never should've told you
in the first place.

Probably not, since obviously
you don't trust me.

You know what,
find your own ride home.

Hey.

Hey.

It's amazing about the Wards.

How fast word travels.

Sometimes.

Well, I'd ask you
if everything's okay--

It's not. It's not.

Which leads me
to my next question.

Uh, it's well-covered
territory with us.

Jimmy Cooper.

I, uh..

You know, I wanna do my best
not to sound too, uh..

...high school, but, uh..

He kissed you.

He told you?

Well, he didn't want there
to be any secrets between us.

Apparently, you don't feel
the same way.

Of course, I do.

It's just that it meant nothing.

Putting my own skepticism
about that remark aside

for just a moment,
if it meant nothing..

...then why didn't you tell me?

Because I knew
it would upset you.

Thank you.

'Cause I feel much so better

having heard it
from someone else.

I'm sorry.

Well, all this time,
all this suspicion

and paranoia about me
and my co-worker

and-and you're sitting on this.

Sandy.

Sandy.

It means nothing.

It means something to me.

Okay, it's just that
after all the years

of Luke calling me gay,
I don't know

'I think it's great that
now the shoe's on the other..'

Actually, it's on his dad's foot

but you get the symmetry
I'm going for.

It's not funny.

It's the end of their marriage.

'The life as they knew it
is over.'

I heard Meredith's already
filing for divorce.

I was just over there.
They seemed really happy.

Yeah?
By happy, do you mean gay?

- Seth? Cut it out.
- Yes.

I mean, how can you be married
to someone for that long

and keep that kind of a secret?

Oh, you'd be surprised.

But eventually,
the secrets come out.

And some marriages can handle
the truth and some can't.

Yeah, well, I'm sure
everyone will be so accepting

seeing as we're such
a, a liberal, tolerant bunch.

And that was at the expense
of Orange County

not Luke's dad,
his big gay dad.

Did you see his arms?

What straight guy
has arms like that?

Not my husband.

Well, Charles and I went
to go see "The Lion King"

with the Wards
and Carson cried.

Wept.

[women laughing]

[female #1]
'All these years,
I've known him'

he's never once made
a pass at me.

I feel so much better.

[laughing]

I can't be here right now.

- Have you eaten?
- What do you have in mind?

- Fried food and beer.
- First round's on me.

Alright, if everyone would take
his or her seat, we shall begin.

Anyone seen Luke?

'Okay, let's open our books
to page 59'

'the Chesapeake and
the West Indian colonies.'

So you should come over,
like, at 4:00.

Yeah, um, I've got
lit mag after school

but I can come by after that.

Okay, yeah, the flash cards

should be done by then, so..

Hi, you guys. Can I speak to you
for, for one minute, please?

'Because I owe you both
an enormous apology.'

Actually, I guess, technically,
I owe two apologies

'each one tailored
to the specific wrongs'

'visited upon
the specific person.'

But since you two
seem to be

sort of a package deal
these days, I don't know--

- Cohen!
- Right.

Uh, I'm sorry. Okay?

And I'm sorry.

'I'm also sorry that
I apologized to her first.'

'It's just, you know,
chronologically, I'm trying--'

- Cohen.
- Right. Stupid, I know.

Well, let me start by saying
nothing in my life

nothing, prepared me
for the events of that

fateful Thanksgiving Day.

'But I'm not gonna make
any excuses for what I did.'

I just wanna say one little
thing in my defense, which is

you can't really blame me
for wanting

the company
of either of you two.

And I know that
I hurt your feelings

and I feel bad about that.

I do, but please
believe me when I say

that it wasn't
intentional, okay?

'Because I would never do
anything'

'to ruin our friendship'

'or ships.'

So, look, I know
I have no right to ask.

I just hope that someday
you can both forgive me.

Okay. So, yeah,
thanks for your time.

You know, I-I never really
liked flash cards.

They've never really
worked for me.

Oh, yeah, you know, I think
I study better alone.

Oh, that's good,
because I think

lit mag's gonna go
a little bit late.

Uh-huh, yeah,
maybe next test?

- Maybe.
- Uh-huh.

- It's like they enjoy it.
- Hmm.

Well, I can't exactly claim
that I didn't once see the fun

in witnessing the fall
of the rich and fabulous.

Then I became homeless
and suddenly not so funny.

I don't really think that my dad
would let you go homeless.

Yeah, well, uh, when I even
mentioned that I might have

to sell the house,
he went into a panic.

You'd have thought
I was asking for a ring.

That's so him.

And then when I tried
to explain--

- He didn't listen.
- Not a word.

- Can I ask you a question?
- Mm-hmm.

Do you like
that he calls you Kiki?

Hate it.

'Cause he kept calling me
Juju like that candy

that gets stuck in your teeth.

I begged him to stop.

Oh, when he gets
something in his head--

- It has to be his way.
- Always.

[chuckles]

It's just who he is.

He just can't spend longer
than three months

with the same woman
before he freaks.

Well, he freaked, alright.

And I just wish t
hat I could tell him

that I know what he's doing.

He's trying to replace my mom.

But he can't.

And I just wish that he would
stop trying and be happy.

But you can't talk to my dad.

No, I know.

And the important thing
is just that he finds someone

to share his life with,
enjoy these years.

I just don't know if he's
ever gonna figure that out.

Hi.

Hey.

So that apology

aside from being the first
I've ever received from a boy

was also the nicest.

Well, well, uh

I meant it, so, so, good.

So what are you doing Saturday?

- Hey. Seth.
- Hey.

- You going to lit mag?
- Uh, yeah.

- Wanna walk together?
- Uh, do you?

Yes. That was so sweet
what you said earlier.

And I could tell
you really meant it.

We both know sincerity
is not your strong point.

- I'm working on it.
- I'd like to help.

What are you doing
Saturday night?

Well, in the new spirit
of sincerity, um..

...I have a date with Summer.

Oh.

Yeah, so..

What are you doing Friday night?

What am I doing Friday night?

[doorbell rings]

- Hi. Why are you here?
- Same reason you are.

- Hey.
- You okay, man?

[Meredith sobs]

[man talking on TV]

Look, man.

I owe you an apology.

It wasn't you who said anything.

My dad, after we saw him

he, he came out to my mom

and she wigged
and called a couple friends

and then everybody
in Newport knew, so..

Don't worry about it,
I just

wanted to see
how you were doing.

Hey, mom.

Meredith, please.

Luke, could I, uh..

Luke, please.

[Luke]
'My entire life
has been one giant lie.'

Everything I thought
I knew about my dad.

I mean, all those
business trips he took.

Or how about when
he missed one of my games

because he was working late.

'I don't even know
if this guy was the first one'

or if there were others.

I can't even think about it.

Look, I know it's hard

'but after everything
I've been through with my dad'

we've never been closer.

'I mean, we're finally able
to be honest with each other'

'and talk to each other
and I don't know.'

'Maybe you could have that
with your dad--'

Now what he has to say,
I don't wanna hear.

I'm gonna go grab a jacket.

It's cold.

Well, even if he..

...wasn't honest with you

he still cared.

He did make it
to some of your games.

Whatever.
What does it even matter?

It matters.

Especially if you had a dad
who didn't make it

to any of your games.

Who didn't even know
what sport you played or cared.

Everything is just
so screwed up.

Isn't this romantic?
A couple of Harbor butt pirates.

Is there a problem

other than the fact that
we kick your ass every year?

No, dude. No problem at all.

Didn't mean to interrupt
your date.

Fag.

What'd you call me?

[male #1]
'Yo, dude,
keep your hands off me.'

Save that for your boyfriend.

Okay, let's just not do this.

How about a black eye
for the queer guy, huh?

Yo, why don't you
just run to your daddy?

Julie, hi.

I just had to come over
and say thank you.

For what?

I got home today, there was
a message on my machine.

"It's Caleb, call me."
Whatever.

- Well--
- I know.

But I called him, right?

Just in case
he's ready to apologize

which, P.S., he's not.

So he starts in again
with the excuses

and that he's feeling pressured.

Well, because it's all
about him.

Exactly, but then I remembered
what you said at lunch

so I let him have it.

- You did?
- I told him he's scared.

Life's too short. Spend it
with someone you enjoy.

- All that stuff.
- You did?

Don't worry, he doesn't think
it came from you.

He thinks I came up with it.

But the important thing is,
it worked.

How so?

Kirsten, he's buying my house

as an investment.

Jimmy's not going to jail.

Kaitlin and I
have a place to live.

And who knows?

Maybe some day
your next-door neighbor

will be your dad.

I don't know what to say.

Well, you might wanna
water that. Bye.

[Bugs on TV]
'Here, you look like a strong,
healthy boy.'

'Give me a hand.'

Hey, Seth.

Ask your mother
who was at the door.

Uh, mom, who was at the door?

Julie Cooper bearing gifts.

Julie Cooper, dad.

Ask your mother what she wanted.

Um, dad wants to know
who, what-what she want..

Uh, better idea.
Ask her yourself.

Come on.

Julie Cooper sold her house.

- Uh!
- To my father.

Oh.

Now that I wish
you hadn't told me.

- Hey.
- Oh, my God.

- Are you guys okay?
- I didn't do it this time.

[Kirsten]
I'm, I'm gonna get
the first-aid kit.

Well, have a seat.

Hey, what happened?

I guess bad news travels fast.

- Have you called your folks?
- No.

- 'I'll call them.'
- No, no, no.

I'd rather not call them
if-if it's okay.

It's alright. He can just stay
in the guest room.

Sure.

- I'm gonna call his dad.
- Okay.

So do you guys need a ride
to school in the morning?

You don't mind?

Yeah, well, you were pretty
great with Luke today.

I never should've told you.

Because I'll tell
everyone, right?

No, because he asked me not to.

But, see, the unwritten rule
of relationships

says you're allowed
to tell your girlfriend.

Because everything
you say to me stays with me

and vice-versa.

So then you didn't tell
anybody that I went off

on you yesterday
when I thought you'd told?

No.

Well, I mean, just Summer.

Will you tell Summer about this?

No, this will stay
just between us.

[Kirsten]
Carson, are you sure that
I can't get you anything to eat?

Some scotch? Xanax?

No, thank you.

- He's not coming down.
- Well, he's half asleep.

You know, maybe it would
be better idea

if you guys talked
in the morning.

He's not gonna wanna talk to me.

I lied to him.

I lied to everyone. I, uh..

The truth is I love his mom.

I always have.
And I love our family.

And I just didn't,
uh, wanna hurt anybody.

And now he's up there hurting.

Hey, if there's anything
we could do--

No, no, I've embarrassed
my family enough.

I think the best thing
I could do right now

is to just disappear.

No, I think that'd be
the worst thing you could do.

I mean, it's what you've been
doing all along.

You know, but coming out
and being honest with yourself

and your family in this town

it's the bravest thing
you could've done.

Look, it's just
my opinion, but..

...you're the kind of father
any kid would be proud of.

Well, I should go.

Dad.

Just let me grab my shoes.

I'll go with you.

So while we're being honest--

Oh, God.

There's more?

That was a pretty impressive
speech you made in there.

Well, you know, I'm prone
to impressive speeches.

Right up until that line, yeah.

So from now on, you're gonna
tell all your secrets?

- You gonna tell me all yours?
- No, I don't think I have any.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- You sure?
- I think.

Nothing from your past?

No secret fantasies?

No hidden porn stash
on the PC?

No, 'cause obviously
you already know about that one.

There's no way

you can know everything
about someone.

That's what
keeps it interesting.

Well, it hasn't been
uninteresting.

At a certain point, you have
to trust the other person.

- That's what love is.
- Okay.

So you'll have to trust
that you can tell me things

that, you know,
I may not wanna hear.

You know, we-we can handle it.

Like?

Jimmy Cooper kissed me?

Trust me.

[kettle whistling]

[Jet singing "Move On"]

- This is gonna be weird.
- Yep.

Everybody's gonna be
staring at me and talking.

Yep.
