"March 21, 1965.

"Students of acadia high
school embarked on a 4-Day walk

"To coincide with
martin luther king, jr.'S

"March for civil rights.

"The movement
was spearheaded

"By the unlikeliest
of candidates,

Band majorette and homecoming
princess laurel sullivan."

Cutie patootie,

Baton twirler,
and rebel rouser?

Laurel limoges, you have
been holdin' out on us.

Charlie, on voice mail:
hey, it's charlie.

Leave a message.

Just call and apologize
for being mean

So we can be
friends again.

Marco: you in here, my
little sunny side up?

Hey, marco.

You ever going
to tell me

What all the clickety
clacking is about,

Or am i going to have to wait
online at barnes and noble

With the rest
of the riff raff?

I told you,

It's bad luck to talk
about a work in progress.

But if i
ever get around

To cranking out
a manuscript,

I promise, you will be
the first to read it.

Oh, rose wanted me
to tell you

That she's done
with her reading

And she's ready for
your study session.

Great.
Was sage there, too?

Last i checked,
there were no reports

Of pigs flying or
hell freezing over.

You think
there's any chance

Of laurel paying off
half of my student loans

If i only get
rose into duke?

Right. No flying pigs.
Hell's still burning.

Miss baker.

How many times
have i told you

Never violate
the vinyasa.

I am sorry.

There's a patricia
kingston on the phone.

Shall i take
a message or?

Hello?

Is this
sage baker?

Speaking.

This is
patty kingston.

I was so delighted

When my office told
me that you called.

I'm so happy
you returned my call.

Well, you know,

Nigel barker is a
good friend of mine.

He's photographed
a few of my clients,

And when he told me

How fantastic you
and your sister were

At that photo shoot,

I thought to myself,

"I need to be in the
sage and rose business."

Well, have
a ton of ideas

Of how we want
our career to go.

But we need
someone to help us

Make the right choices
and meet the right people.

Well, you just met
the right people.

Look it, honey. You
sound smart and ambitious.

I like that.

Here's what
i was thinking.

I have to fly back
to new york

At 3:00 tomorrow,

But i would love to squeeze
you two in for lunch?

What do you say?

Absolutely.

We'll be there.

Oh, yes!

Thanks, geraldine.

You know my name?

Rose: i don't even know
how to start a thesis.

Well, you are in luck

Because yours truly
has saved every paper

That she's ever done.

Let me show you

The one that i did
on joan of arc.

Ok, i don't know
what's sadder.

That you keep
all your papers,

Or that you wear that
thing around your neck.

I brought this for you.

I'm not that big
of a fashion victim.

Although, it does kind
of match my cardigan.

Great.
You're here.

Oh, so nice of you
to fit us in to your

I didn't. I need
to talk to rose.

Anyway, you're not
going to believe this,

But we are having lunch with
patricia kingston tomorrow.

Who's patricia kinton?

Huge publicist.

Jessica alba was going to wear
this giant, ugly, purple thing

To the v.M.A.S
last year,

Patty kingston
was like, "no."

Jessica was,
like, "ok, cool."

How do you
know this stuff?

Oh, everybody
knows this.

What?! I cannot believe
she wants to meet with us.

It's amazing,
right?

I mean, once we
sign with her,

We are officially 9
- On our way to mega stardom.

Uh, don't forget
that you have

A history test tomorrow,
fifth period.

Right.

We're talking
an hour.

Yeah, but you
don't have mr. Carp.

He wouldn't even give
lisa lassek a hall pass

When she was choking
on her swedish fish.

Look, i probably shouldn't
miss this test anyway.

I cannot flunk out.

You're not
gonna flunk.

I mean, he'll probably
let you retake the test

Once you explain
the situation.

The situation, of course,
being that our dog died

And we had
to bury him.

We don't have a dog.

They don't
know that.

Listen, rosie.

When patricia kingston
says she wants to do lunch,

We do lunch.

Is this about her?

No, it's just that-

Look, i actually studied
for this test

And i think it would be
a complete waste

Just to skip it. Please,
don't be mad t me.

Ok, well,

I'm just
going to scoot

And let you guys
work this out.

So...

I can't believe you're not into this.

No, i am.

I can do it
any time after school.

Can't we just move it?

This is the only
time she can do it.

And i can't ask to
reschedule a meeting

With the biggest publicist
on the east coast.

It will look like we're blowing her off.

I guess i could
just go myself.

Would you hate me?

No. It's-

It's fine.

Well, hey, you want an ice
blended from the kitchen?

I can have marco
make us some.

Um, no thanks.

I have to e-Mail
patricia back now.

Ok.

"A contemporary feminist
perspective of joan of arc

By megan smith."

Oh, honey. Nerd much?

Laurel's biography?

What the hell?

I'm sorry, i'm sorry.

I went for a run and i
completely lost track of time.

Oh, no worries.
I got you covered.

Here, let me get that.

I tried to call, but.

Uh, you left your phone here last night.

I found it
behind the bar.

And that's pretty much
how my day's gone so far.

Which means it will
be better tomorrow.

So, we're still on
for dinner, right?

What's wrong?

Oh, nothing.

Um, megan called, but she
didn't leave camessage.

Oh, well, why don't
you just call her back?

We're not really
speaking these days.

It's a long story.

I'm sorry.

She's your
best friend, right?

It'll blow over.

Well,
i say call her.

Bust it open.

I think the world would be a lot better

If people could just stop
beating around the bush, you know?

Hi, um,
i thought that you

Were at the laffers for
leukemia dinner tonight.

It's stand up
for scoliosis.

And no.
That was last night.

Right. Um, ok.

Well, uh, sorry
for barging in then.

Actually,
i'm glad you did.

I need you to sign
my permission slip

For that lunch
i have tomorrow?

You think i'm going to give
you permission to skip school?

In what universe?

The one where i know

You didn't get permission
to do this.

Or this.

I hate
to break it to you,

But my grandmother is not
a very big fan of surprises.

I hope you didn't
spend too much time

Trying to plan
this one.

Uh, what do you think you have over me?

I don't know.
But i'm dying to find out.

Well, i will give you points
for style and delivery,

But just
so you know,

I was already planning
on telling laurel.

Oh, really?

Then you might
want to run.

You wicked little...

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Where's the fire?

I have to talk to
laurel. It's an emergency.

Ok, well, unless the sky
is falling, chicken little,

You're not going
to her in a panic.

You're right.

So, take a deep breath.

Talk to me.

Ok, you know how laurel

Is a veritable model
of classiness?

Yes.
Epitome of glamour?

Yes.
Beacon of success?

Still with you.

And how amazing is it

That a small town girl
from maine

Marries her
high school sweetheart

And then is left
to fend for herself

When hubby gets
shipped off to war?

Oh, and then
he returns,

They start up a small
door-To-Door operation

That she
eventually turns

Into a multi-Billion-Dollar
enterprise.

Oh, wait! Hold on!

I'm not even
getting to the part

Where he dies,

And then she's left to
raise their daughter alone

While she elbows her way

Through the ranks
of the old boys' club,

Shattering
the glass ceiling.

Pause. Rewind.

Why are you telling me
the story of laurel's life?

Because i want
to write it.

A biography.
I'm a writer, remember?

So you keep
telling me.

Look, part
of the reason

That i wanted
to work here

Was so that i
could meet people

That were worth
writing about.

And who's more accomplished than laurel?

I mean, don't
you think her story

Is the kind
of inspirational tale

That people want
to read about these days?

It depends. What does laurel
think of this magnum opus?

She doesn't
know about it yet,

Which is why i need
to talk to her pronto.

You're writing an unauthorized
biography of laurel?

What? No! No, no.

No, no, no. That is
exactly what i am not doing.

"Unauthorized"
conjures up images

Of kitty kelley
and dith regan.

Nasty, nasty gossip,

And i would never
do that to laurel.

Then, pray tell,
what were you doing?

I was researching
and writing a proposal

That i could present to
laurel when i was ready.

But the evil one
found my notes,

Completely raw
and unedited

And then e-Mailed them
to laurel

Before i got a chance
to explain.

Yes, i see it now.

How it's
a misunderstanding

With a very simple
explanation?

And laurel reads it
on her blackberry

While she's stuck in
an airport in tokyo.

Her meeting
got pushed.

She'll be back
tomorrow.

And you didn't think to
mention that to me earlier?

Because i wanted to hear
the whole story myself.

And, ooh! It's a doozy.

I...

Good luck with that
one, sweet pea.

Iced tea means
tea with ice.

So sorry.
Oh, no.

Um, i brought
some photos

If you want
to see them.

I've seen them,

And you were fabulous.

I mean, if the camera
loves you this much,

Can you imagine
what the public thinks?

Ok, so.
How can i help you?

Where do you
see yourself in 2 years?

I want to go
the distance.

I don't want to be the
hot, new thing one minute,

And then totally
burned out the next.

So, really, i want to
be doing something cool,

Something relevant
all the time.

Way beyond 2 years.

I love a client with some
chutzpah, some moxie, right?

Throw in some
good old fashioned gumption,

And we are
talking superstar.

Great! So, what's
the next step?

Well, as soon
as your sister arrives,

We can go over
the contracts.

Oh, rose isn't coming.

What do you mean?

She had a thing...

A- I'm not sure she's
ready for all this yet.

She's really obsessed
with school lately.

It's kind of annoying.

That's a problem.

I mean, i was
under the impression

I'd be working
with two of you.

Maybe i can start first.

No, no. You can't
start first.

This is a business.

It's about branding.

The olsens,
the-The hiltons.

That's a brand.

The baker twins.

That's a brand.

I'm sure
she'll get on board

As soon as she sees
what we're doing.

I hear what
you're saying, but...

Take the jonas brothers.
All right?

Can you really tell one
mop of hair from another?

No. They're
a package deal.

Listen, i-I'm sure
that there's a publicist

Who'll work with you
out there,

But i gotta tell you,

I don't have the time

To sell rose baker
as a solo act.

I'm sage.

My point exactly.

I'm sorry.

Oh, god.
I've gotta take this.

Will you call me when
your sister gets on board?

Patty kingston.

No, more ice.

That's quite an assortment
you've got there.

Marco told me about
the book situation.

How much
did he tell you?

Enough.

How are you with
a tranquilizer gun?

Come on.

It's not that bad.

How could
something so right

Seem so idiotic
all of a sudden?

This one time i put
tinfoil in the microwave.

Genius at the start.

Bad idea in the end.

Don't think i'm buying
your "i'm flawed, too" routine.

Look, if it's
any consolation,

I did
the samehing.

In fact, the first real
pictures that i ever took?

They're
practically illegal.

Ok, if this is going

To a naked
school girl place,

I don't want
to know about it.

Are you gonna let me
tell the story?

Sorry. Go on.

So, i was at a party at a
friend's house a few years back.

I mean, this place
was ridiculous.

We had drinks coming
out of our ears.

???It was bananas.

Every square inch
of this place

Was covered with hot
models and movie stars.

Naked movie stars?

So, word gets out

That the star quarterback
for f.S.U. Is there.

So, i sneak out to
the guest house-

Naked football players?

And there he is,

Holding court with all
these corporate bigwigs,

Just charismatic
as hell.

And i happen to have
my leica with me.

So, i just went crazy.

I started firing
shot after shot.

Ok.

Pictures
at a kick-Ass party.

A book my boss
doesn't know about.

See how they're
not the same thing?

Well, it's illegal
for a college player

To be seen with
a commercial sponsor.

And i had rolls
and rolls of this stuff,

Not to mention, i didn't
have permission to take them.

So, what
you're saying is,

You're one of the f.B.I.'S most wanted?

What i'm saying,

Is that your first work
is always your best

Because it says
something about you.

About what you see,
what you care about.

Well.

Love the big share,

But your ending
is way better.

I mean, at least you have some
cool pics to hang on the wall.

All i have is
a bunch of research

And a really
pissed off boss.

Well, i could frame
the research for you.

Look, you were inspired.

It's your first book.

Don't beat yourself
up about it.

Miss limoges is back.

She'd like to see you
in her office.

Thanks.

Is it too late
to jump off the balcony?

I'd be very sad
if you did.

Even though you are
on the ground floor.

Dead man walking.

Laurel, i just-

It's an interesting read,
to say the least.

I am so sorry.

Oh, i know how
sordid and sinister

And some other s-Word
this must seem.

Megan, megan.

You are aware
we have a privacy issue.

I know, but-

And this isn't exactly

How i would like
to have found out.

Believe me,
this is not-

Bup, bup.

How long have you
been working on this?

Pretty much since
i've been here.

And you never
felt a need

To discuss this
with me?

I was going to.

Absolutely, i was.

I just wanted
to get it right

Before i
ought it to you.

Well, you'll have
to explain that to me.

Your story is
amazing, laurel.

If i thought that i
could come to you d say,

"Hey, i want to write a book
about you," i would have.

But, you know,

I knew that i needed to
have something to back it up.

I wanted to do
my research.

Draw up an outline,
write a few chapters.

Show you what
i was capable of

So you would know that your
story was in good hands with me.

Well.

I always thought
that my story was worth telling.

And i have to admit

I'm thrilled
that you do, as well.

Really?

I see the creative spirit
in these pages

And, considering your way with
words and sur breezy prose-

You think i'm breezy?

I'm willing
to let you continue to work on the book.

Under my supervision,
of course.

If that suits you.

I- That
suits me awesomely.

I- It suits me well.

Really well. I-I
can't believe it.

Well, we'll
start tomorrow, then.

Ok.

Are you ok?

You seem
a little out of it.

I'm sorry, i'm just...
in a bad place right now.

Is this about
your besfriend?

Do you want to talk
about it?

No, it's...

This isn't really
fair to yo

So maybe we should
just walk away now.

No harm done.

Chock it up to bad timing.

Ok, we're
doing that.

Listen, mandy,
you're a great girl.

Dude, it's ok.

You don't have to do
the big speech.

I mean, we've only
been on, what, 3 dates?

If you're not
into me, it's cool.

It's really
a timing time.

Seriously, don't
worry about it.

But, um, can we
still finish dinne

'Cause my pie
is on its way,

And i was looking
forward to it.

Absolutely.

Ok.

All right,
so i've got to ask,

And since i got dumped
2 seconds ago,

I do feel like i'm entitled
to a straight answer.

What is really going on
with you?

'Cause this fight with megan's
got you really wound up.

I sort of...

You know.

You like her?

Pretty much
since high school.

End of high school,
actually.

So it's been-

6 years.
Oh.

And you're laughing?

Sorry.

It's just i had you pegged
as this chill abercrombie guy,

And you've got more drama
going on than a sorority house.

What is that
supposed to mean?

Nothing.
I just find it weird

That you've been in love
with this girl for 6 years,

And you haven't been anywhere
near her for 5 of them.

My you're not really
in love with her. What?

I mean, maybe the idea
of it works for you-

Keeps you from having to
get into anything serious

With other chicks,
makes your life easier.

- Well, that's not-
- And you still get to be a good guy

Because the only reason
you can't commit

Is because you're all in
love with someone else.

It's pretty slick,
actually.

I'm not slick.

Ok, ybe not
intentionally,

But come on,

If you were really
in love with her,

Don't you think you would
have found a way to tell her

I don't know,
it's just a thought.

Oh. Holy crap,
that looks good.

Oh, my god.

You've got to try th.

Um, i'm not-Ok.
Wow.

Hey, how'd the meeting go
this morning?

Not great.

Patricia won't
sign me by myself.

She'll only do it
with the both of us.

Look, i want to do it.

I do. I'll go tomorrow.

I told you,
she's gone already.

Maybe i can call her.

If you want.

She's gonna want you
to commit.

If patricia books us
a shoot in milan,

We have to go.

We can't turn down jobs
because of some history test.

This is the real deal.

If we're gonna do it, we
have to go all the way.

What do you mean,
drop out of school?

Of course not.

But if we want
to do this right,

It has to be our
number one priority.

I'm prty sure miley
cyrus and dakota fanning

Don't turn down movies
for some stupid test.

Well, yeah,
but i'm pretty sure

They probably don't want
to go to college anyway.

Neither do i.

What?

It's not like we need a
college degree for this.

What about all the studying
we're doing to get into duke?

That's why i've been
trying to get you

To chill out
over that stuff.

You think you're having
a hard time now?

College is only gonna
get harder.

I know, but...

Sage, i just thought we were
gonna go to duke together.

You know, we were gonna
get a house in durham,

Do all the things
that mom wanted for us.

I don't know that
she wanted that for us.

Maybe she would have
thought we were crazy

For passing up
this opportunity.

Yeah, but we talked
about this.

A million years ago,
yeah.

But the more i think
about it,

The more college just
seems like the thing

That's going to keep me from
doing what i really want to do.

Rose, listen,

This is our big chance.

If you hate it, you can
always bail out later

And go to school
without me.

But right now
i need you to sign on.

So what do you say?

Hello.

Sorry, am i late?

I had to take my dad to the
voting booth this morning.

No, you're
right on time.

I was just going
through it again

Before we sat down.

Oh, great.

I have to say,
i am really excited.

So am i.

I do have a few changes
to go through,

But don't worry,
i'll walk you through them.

Mm-Hmm. Ready.

We should open strong,

Put a few of my winning
moments right at the top.

The first deal that i made
with saks is a good one.

Also, the reward from
the women's business council.

No, no, no, no.
Landing on forbes list.

Now, that is a great one.

I want to hook
the reader in.

Am i going too fast
for you?

Uh, no.

So, i have
some wonderful news.

You know who
ronald kessler is?

Yeah, yeah, he wrote about
palm beach in the season.

I read it from
cover to cover.

He also wrote
the biographies

Of joseph p. Kennedy
and george w. Bush.

Anyway, i gave him a ring,
told him about our project,

And he's willing
to come on board.

On board?

Yes, i thought it best to bring
in someone with more experience,

So i sent him your notes.

He had a lot to say,

And i have to agree
with his assessment.

So if you have it
in front of you,

I will walk you through
our thoughts.

Uh, ok.

Yes, you see this paragraph
right here?

It needs to be more concise.
You have too many words.

You need to get
to the point soone5?

Ok.

You know what, just hand it
to me, would you?

What, this?

Yes, it'll be easier
if i go through it

And you look over
my shoulder.

Ok.

Now, i can understand why you wanted
to highlight the hardships i've endured,

But i don't know,
a lot of it just feels sappy.

It's just too sentimental.

And there's entirely too much
emphasis on my husband and family.

I'd like to step away
from that.

I was just, you know, trying
to put it into context.

Ahh, the whole thing
is feeling muddled.

I thought it was breezy.

After 35 years in business,

There is one lesson
that has never failed me.

When the road is treacherous,

Take a different one.

Voila.

We'll start from scratch.

It may look daunting now,

But, megan smith,
tomorrow is a new day.

Fresh eyes in the morning.

I mean, can you believe
the audacity?

"We'll start from scratch.
Fresh eyes in the morning."

I mean, 3 months
of research.

3 months of blood,
sweat, and tears,

And it's just
- She throws it all away in one click.

I know it's not
your ide

But think of it
this way,

You're working
with laurel on it,

Which means that you are
a hell of a lot closer

To getting your
first book published.

This isn't even
my book.

I mean, for all i know, she's gonna
hire some hoity toity writer guy

To write it instead.

She asked yoto meet up in
the morning to start over.

All right, obviously,
she wants to work with you

And your fresh eyes.

Question for you...

And promise
you won't hurt me?

Fine.

It's the story
of her life.

What's so different
about her version

And the one that you
want to do?

Uh, my version is cool.

I mean, she wants
the whole book

To be about her
business success.

She wants to get rid of
all the personal stuff.

Well, successful people e pretty
controlling about their image.

I'm not trying
to mar her image.

If anything,
i'm trying to put in

Events and relationships
in her life

That make her more real
and more relatable to people.

This book was supposed to
be my vision.

You know how e.E. Cummings didn't like
to capitalize? That was his vision.

I mean, i'm sure people were all
like, "hey, e.E., your grammar sucks."

But he didn't care.
You want to kn why?

Because he had
artistic integrity.

After you publish, you can have
as much integrity as you want.

Until then,
suck it up, yalie.

It's called compromise.

"Compromise" is a fancy word
for losing.

Megan, this is
a huge moment for you.

And i know it doesn't feel
like it right now, but it is.

And you're gonna make
the most of it.

I have faith in you.

Well, cut it out.

Hi, charlie.

If this is another scheme you
and your sister are cooking up,

We're kind of crazed
right now.

Oh, no, no,
it's not like that.

Look, ok, i just really
needed an objective opinion

From an older person,

And, well, you're like
the oldest person i know

Who doesn't work for me.

It's a weird little world
you live in, rose.

Look, i promise i'll
talk really fast, ok?

Ok, what's up?

Well, you didn't go
to college, right?

Uh, i did,
but i didn't finish.

So you-You don't think
college is such a big deal?

Oh, i didn't say that.

I think it's a really
big deal, actually.

Well, yeah,
i thought so, too.

And i really wanted to
go where my parents went,

But now sage is all
focused on her big career,

And i don't even know if
she wants to go anymore.

So?

So i thought me and sage, we
were gonna do everything together.

Ok, well, let's take sage out
of the equation for a minute

And focus on you.

What do you want?

I want to be with sage.

But you also just said
you wanted to go to college.

Yeah, but that's when i thought
sage was gonna be with me.

I get it.

I felt the same way
when megan left for school.

What dyou mean?

Well, we were practically
inseparable growing up.

Always in trouble
for some thing or other.

We broke into a zoo once.
It was awesome.

What?

I cannot picture megan
doing anything bad.

She's so... discipliney.

And she was then, too.

After i'd drop her off,
i'd go home and sleep,

But she must have stayed up
studying or doing homework,

Because all of a sudden
she got into yale.

And i was like,
how did that happen?

I thought we were
in this together.

So she just bailed
on you?

Well, it wasn't like that.

She was thinking ahead.

And i...

I wasn't thinking at all.

Maybe it's good that
sage is telling me

All this in advance,
you know.

Because i would be
way more screwed

If she just all
the sudden was gone.

Not that you're screwed.

Are you screwed?

You mean because i still have the
same job i had when i was your age?

It's possible.

I'm not exactly
kicking the world's ass.

But i don't know, man.

It's hard to figure out what
you want to do with your life.

I'd say you're ahead
of the curve.

At least you're
thinking about it.

Did you guys really
break into a zoo?

We were young,
we needed the money.

Oh, screw it.

Laurel limoges,

You will thank me later.

I'm gonna write this my way.

Charlie?

Hey, did i wake you?

No, no, no, i-

Wow, i overslept.

We need to talk.

But i don't want to
do it over the phone.

Can i come over
after my shift?

Yeah, i'll be here.

Hey, did you have
a good ride?

It was fine.

Ok, so i've been thinking
about everything.

And i'm just curious,

If-If i agreed
to sign on with patricia,

How do i still get
into duke?

Easy. If you get stuck, i'll
help you with your homework.

Yeah, but you always
go through everything so fast.

I never really learn
anything.

So you turn your assignment
in on time and learn it later.

Done and done.

Yeah, but...

What happens when it's time
for the s.A.T.S?

I mean, you can't just
take those for me, too.

Ok, you're acting like you
want to find a solution,

But clearly you don't.

No, i do.
It's just...

I don't know if i can do
all this and the publicity.

Are we gonna do this
again?

'Cause i am so sick
of you worshipping

At the altar of
megan smith.

What is that
supposed to mean?

You've been acting
all righteous ???

Why is it every time
i tell you

What i want to do,
you blame her?

Because you never
used to be like this.

And it is so sad watching
you play study buddy with her.

That girl is here for one reason
- To get paid.

I'm not gonna listen
to this.

She doesn't care
about you.

She certainly doesn't
care about me.

She doesn't care?
What about you?

All the sudden it's like
all you care about

Is this career thing.

I mean, screw everything and
everyone else, including me.

What are you
talking about?

This whole time i've been
asking you to do this with me.

Only because you can't
do it withoume.

Look, if patricia would
take you on by yourself,

You'd do it, wouldn't you?

Yep, that's what i thought.

God, and what sucks is that
you are completely cool with it.

You're practically dancing
your way out of here.

Éat is not true.

But obviously i can't change
your mind about college.

And i'm not willing
to give this up.

Yeah, but you're willing
to give me up.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, my god.

Sorry.

Doesn't anyone knock
anymore?

The door was open.

What's going on there,
jumpy?

I did something bad.

Something terribly,
inexcusably bad.

What happened?
What did you do?

I decided to go with
my gut on the book.

I figured laurel was
a strong-Minded woman

And she didn't get to where
she is by being a pushover,

So if i was going to
earn her respect,

I needed to speak up
and stand by my ideas.

Ok.

And since i still felt that the
book needed a little more oomph,

I decided
to do more research.

And?

I found something
that i shouldn't have.

What do you mean?

All of this time i thought
laurel wanted to stay away

From the personal stuff because
she thought it was too girly

Or sentimental or just because
she wanted to have it her way,

But i know something

That i am sure she does
not want anyone finding out.

What did you find?

I can't tell you.

Well, maybe you
shouldn't tell her.

Just pretend like
you don't know.

I'd feel guilty.

I mean, after all
that she's done for me,

All the opportunities
that she's given me.

I owe it to her
to be honest.

Megan.

Good luck.

Hey, geraldine.
Is laurel available?

She'll be back
later this afternoon.

I can squeeze you in before
her conference call at 4:00.

Oh, that'd be great.
Thank you.

I am so sorry.

I do not want
to fight anymore.

Me neither.

I have something
i want to say.

Is it ok if i go first?

Yes, of course.

So i've been thinking a
lot about what you said.

And you were right.

I have been pushing
you away.

Why?

A lot of reasons.

Some of which
i don't think ???

But part of it is,
you being back in town

Kind of made me feel
really bad about myself.

What? How?

You've been gone
for 5 years.

And in that time, you've
graduated from yale with honors,

You got a job
in new york,

You got another job
in palm beach,

Where you hang out
with all these-

Rich freaks?

Yeah, but they're pretty
important rich freaks.

You have your crap
together, you know.

And i'm still waiting
tables at the cb shack.

Same job i've had since
senior year of high school.

Come on, charlie.

You work your ass off.

I mean, harder than anyone i
know, and you love your life.

Sometimes.

But i probably could be
doing more with it.

I mean, if i hadn't dropped
out of college when i did,

Maybe i'd have a better
idea of what the hell i want.

I always wondered
why you didn't finish.

It made sense
at the time.

But now i just think i've been
coasting because it's easier.

No respo ???

Well, you're a guy, that's
perfectly normal behavior.

Yeah, well, i've been thinking
about going back to school.

Maybe finish my degree.

I'm ready to move on.

I'm sorry
i took it out on you.

So are we good?
We friends?

Always.

So, what's been
going on with you?

Uh, well, it's not good.

It's from me.

You don't have to open it
right now if you don't want to.

But i've been thinking a lot
about what you were saying,

And i just want you to know
that i'm scared, too.

What do you mean
scared?

Traveling the world, trying to
be this big star without you.

It could totally suck,
i don't know.

But right now
this is what i want.

And i don't ever want
to lie to you.

I don't want you to lie.

But i don't want you
to be mad either.

I'm not mad.
I was just...

It just seems like you've been
choosing megan over me lately,

And i just flipped out.

But wait, what?

Sometimes when i walk
in a room,

It's like
i'm not even there.

You guys have your own
secret language or something.

That used to be us.

Sage.

You are the most important
person in my life.

Why do you think i've been so
bummed about you taking off?

Serously?

Hello, obviously.

I don't want to stop you from doing
the things that you want to do.

And i don't want
to stop you either.

I love all the reasons
why you want to go to duke.

And i know mom would be
so proud of you.

So, what do we do now?

What f we sign
with patricia together,

But we don't take any jobs that
interfere with big school stuff,

Like finals or prom.

Oh, no, we definitely
cannot miss prom.

No way.

And then after
we graduate high school,

We'll take it
from there.

Ok, but we're not
leaving each other yet.

Not for a long-Ass time.

Ok, now you have to
open my present.

Ok.

Oh, my god, sage!

Do you love it?
Do you love it?

It's beautiful.

You got the shortboard out.

I could teach you
how to do an aerial.

Oh, you think
you can school me?

Probably not,

But how much would you like
to kick my ass out there?

All right, let's see
what you've got.

10 seconds.
Let me get my board.

I'll give you 5.

Megan, come on in.

Is everything
all right?

I, uh...

Whatever it is,
we can talk about it.

You want to tell me
what's wrong?

I was searching for
a few more personal anecdotes ???

So, um, i decided to search
for more material.

And the awful thing is is
that i didn't realize until now

How incredibly insensitive it is to
be thinking of your life as material.

But i did.

And...

I kept looking.

And now i know something
that i shouldn't.

What do you gow?

I know that after
you married robert

You moved to new york to start
your cosmetics company.

And then he was drafted
to the vietnam war

And you had to put
your plans on hold.

Robert was wounded

And he returned 3aback to
the states in december of '69.

And you gave birth to your
daughter carolyn the following july.

Only 7 months later.

Which means...

If i could turn back time and
unlearn what i learned, i would.

What do you want
from me?

I don't want anything
from you.

You've been incredibly
gracious to me,

Generous even.

And...

I don't know
what else to say

Except that i'm
deeply, deeply sorry,

And if you want to fire me,
i completely understand.

Well, i can't very well
do that, can i?

I mean,
how would it look

To the rest of my staff,
to my granddaughters?

Rose and sage are in the
middle of a school year.

How would that be fair
to them?

No, you're staying on.

You hold
all the cards now.

Let's see how honorable
you really are.
