Original subtitles

Steve,

of course Janet said no.

You didn't have a ring.

Yeah, you didn't get down on one knee.

I think she got the idea!

Hey, if you don't get down on one knee,

- the girl has to say no. - Steve,

you got to tell her.

I have actually been married, Steve... listen to me.

Supplication is the key.

She's lucky to have him.

They're lucky to have each other.

Remember that.

Ask, get ready to beg.

If she smells fear, you're through.

You clear on all this, Steve?

Oh, yeah. Real clear.

You guys have been a tremendous help.

Okay, how he asked you

was lame, but he asked you.

Steve's a great guy; he's the father of your child,

and he asks you to marry him, you say no, I don't get it.

Steve is a great guy, and I think that someday

he'll even be a great dad, but he's also ambivalent.

And I don't have time for that right now.

I think that's smart.

- Weren't you just leaving? - Marriage is

hard enough when both people are equally committed.

That's all I'm saying.

Your baby needs a dad.

All right, check this out.

- Ooh, nice! - Wow!

You don't think it's too much?

- No. - Nah, it's great, considering

it's been in your trunk all week.

Dude, what are you waiting for?

Well, she turned me down once.

Part of me thinks I should just leave it at that.

Nah, no way. Look, show-show us your proposal.

- I don't think so. - Yeah.

Noah, be Janet.

What?

Without my lip gloss?

- Steve, come on. - I'll give it a shot. Come on.

- Let's go. - Come on.

Janet, I know we've been through a lot,

and I know you're worried about my commitment...

but I think

you're the most incredibly... ugly...

hairy-knuckled...

- I'll never be able to fake... - That does not work at all.

- This... - Dude, you're horrible.

No, trust me, you're in there, Romeo. Yeah.

These are for you guys.

For you.

For you.

Lamaze classes, baby CPR classes,

baby proofing classes.

Sales at the baby store.

A to-do list: crib, bunting,

doctors' appointments...

The ultrasound, so I can find out the baby's sex.

You want to know?

Well, for organizational purposes only,

because then I can pick out sheets

and clothes and the color of the nursery.

Why aren't we talking about Steve?

Don't you see, you guys? I love Steve,

but I just have too much to do to worry about him.

So you turned him down because you're too busy?

If it were me, I'd take him back,

because I can handle his indecision.

A baby can't.

And that's why the answer's no.

I didn't realize you had such beautiful eyes, Steve. Really.

Well, thanks for nothing.

You know, Steve,

I expect to be the best man, right?

- Yeah. - Hey, I'm serious. Best man.

Okay.

She's gonna say no, isn't she?

Look, I don't see how she can want

your kid and not want you.

What if she does? Then what?

Brother, you're gonna be fine.

Thanks, D.

Hey.

Hi.

You were up awfully early this morning.

I called the house at 8:00, and Steve said you'd already left.

Yeah, I had an early meeting.

But she's late, as usual.

Could we try that again?

I had an early meeting, and she's late, as usual.

Now I know I'm in trouble.

Yeah. I was thinking

about what you said to Janet last night.

Has she decided what to do?

She is not going to be with Steve.

So now you're mad at me because I said marriage is hard?

She wanted to imagine that it would be awful,

and you helped her do that.

Matt, he threatened the babysitter

in front of the children.

And then he drove Mackenzie to kindergarten

in the front seat, with an airbag.

Okay, maybe we should go up to my office, okay?

Look, I want full custody. I don't care what it costs.

And if he comes to my house again,

I want a restraining order.

Okay, Judy, give me two minutes, okay?

Bop-bop-bop-bop-bop.

Perfect example of what I'm talking about.

Married 17 years to her high school sweetheart.

He was the quarterback, she was the cheerleader.

They both thought it was gonna be forever.

Nearly half of all marriages end in divorce.

That doesn't mean people shouldn't get married.

I didn't tell Janet not to marry Steve.

All is said was for her to be cautious.

Oh, that's a ringing endorsement.

My experience tells me not to believe in forever,

and that's all I was trying to say.

Well, you picked a bad time to say it.

My client's waiting.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I'm here to see Rick Miller.

And you are?

David Silver.

Uh-huh, the guy from the After Dark.

The one who says that all women secretly wish

to be one of Charlie's Angels.

Hey, there he is!

Number one with a bullet.

Hey, yeah, I'm doing pretty good, right?

Good? You, my friend, got guys calling in

by the truckload.

Hey, I wouldn't date a feminist if I were you.

But who would? You know what I'm saying?

Yeah. Uh, can I get a minute?

Yeah.

You know, I-I think you might have

- the wrong impression of me. - Oh, I know.

Because if I got to know you, I would see that deep inner pain

that causes you to be such a jerk on your show.

Exactly.

I have a meeting,

but, uh, if you write down your number,

I'll give you a call and...

then you can judge for yourself.

Plus, you've got

a little bit of a Jaclyn Smith thing going on,

and I kinda like it.

Oh, well.

We, uh, could have gone to your place...

Oh, that's okay.

There's a kids' clothing store down the street

I wanted to check out.

Uh, are you comfortable?

Can I get you anything to drink or...?

- I'm fine. - Okay.

But, uh, we might as well just get right to it

'cause I know you want to talk about Steve.

Actually, I don't want to talk about Steve.

I want to talk about you.

I think what you're doing is wrong.

I don't need this right now.

Hi!

Hi.

Oh, what a day I had!

So glad to be home.

- Hi. - Hi.

Could you give us a minute, please?

Oh.

Oh, right, sure.

Um, okay.

Sure.

Okay, nobody else would say this to you,

but I will.

I think you're being selfish.

- I'm looking out for my child. - How?

By pushing him away from his father?

Sorry.

I gotta tell you,

I wouldn't have blamed Steve if he ran away,

but he did not run away.

He stepped up, because you asked him to.

I have to go.

Janet, you got no right to do this.

And you have no right to do this.

Great. I'll have Noah Hunter call you to confirm.

Oh, please, Wayne's the one you should thank.

He never could stop promoting you.

Great. Thanks. Bye.

Janet, I love you. Marry me.

Oh, that's right, cheat on me.

You mind?

Hi.

Hey. Come on in.

I brought you something.

What's this?

- I got a demo. - Let's check it out.

I thought you might like it.

You need them for tomorrow night, right?

Wait a second. You already checked.

Well, I was just listening to the CD,

and I thought... Yeah, I did.

All right, thank you.

- Mm-hm. - I've got a great idea.

Why don't you and I go listen

to this right now, together?

I'd like that.

All right.

So how'd you hear about this band, anyway?

Oh, I-I think a customer mentioned it

at the store or something.

Anyway, try track four.

- It's the best one. - Four?

Yeah. Well, I think it's the best.

Okay, let's check it out.

Hello.

"Is this Gina Kincaid's room?"

Uh, well, Gina Kincaid is here.

Would you like to speak to her?

- Hey, Gina! - Hi. Oh.

It's for you.

Great. Hello?!

Oh, hi, Mom.

Yeah-yeah, this is the right forwarding number.

Mm-hmm. Oh, and things got a little cramped

at the beach apartment. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah, it's posh, right?

Uh, listen, I gotta go right now.

I'll call you tomorrow.

Okay. Bye.

Oh, Mom, the bathroom floor's heated.

Hi, gorgeous.

Oh. Hello?

Yes, it's heated.

Sorry.

- Sorry. - It's okay.

How you doing?

I'm...

Oh, you're working.

- Yeah, I'm-I'm good, I'm good. - Need help?

- Listen, no. You know what? - Oh...

You know how into you I am, right?

Mm-hmm.

And I'm-I'm very happy that we're together right now.

Right?

Right.

Well, there's just a little problem wi...

with the living situation.

There is?

Kind of.

Because, you know, we never really talked

about moving in together.

Oh. I know.

It just kind of happened. I mean, David kicked you out.

And Donna kicked me out.

And neither one of us had a place to stay,

and now we do.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, we both got kicked out, that's true.

But see, I-I do have a place.

This is my place, and-and I just...

Well, I don't know if...

if my place is-is big enough for two of us.

What?

Janet, I've been giving it a lot of thought.

No, that's a little too lawyerly.

Janet, I know we're in this weird position...

No, that's weird.

This is a very expensive ring and...

What does a guy have to do

to get a little privacy in his own...?!

If this is a bad time, I can come back.

No, no, I was, um, just reading.

- Maxim? - Yeah, well, you know.

Hey, I'm glad you're here.

There's something I want to say.

- Listen... - Uh, sit over here, sit over here.

Little better.

Yeah, that's better.

I want you to stop siccing your friends on me.

What are you talking about?

What we're going through is very personal and private,

and I don't appreciate being pressured.

Into making the wrong decision?

Into changing my mind.

Huh.

Well, I'm sorry if they overstepped.

This is for you.

It's a schedule.

- Schedule? - Mm-hmm.

You're the dad, so you should know...

Everything about the pregnancy is on there.

I see you have an ultrasound scheduled.

I want to know if it's a boy or a girl.

Oh, I don't want to know that.

Then you shouldn't come.

Because no matter what I want,

you're going to find out the sex, anyway.

Why am I not surprised?

You want to say something?

Yeah, I did very badly, but forget it.

- Hey, that's for you. - Thank you.

Mm-hmm. Yeah, I'll get that.

- Thank you. - You got it.

Would you get these doors for me?

Thanks.

Morning!

I got you coffee... Black, of course.

And... Oh, I got you eggs,

just the way you like 'em.

- And some... a little sausage. - Oh...

Careful.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Morning... Oh, I got you the paper, too.

There you go.

- Oh... - You can have the front page.

I'll read this.

I want to see about...

Oh, yeah, this is what I wanted to see.

There's an article on, um, New Year's Eve.

It's the millennium. What do you want to do.

Oh, here, you read it to me.

Go ahead.

This isn't going to work.

You're not trying, Dylan.

No, I am trying.

I... Look, I like the way things are with us.

I don't... I don't want to mess with it.

Oh, I see.

So you're kicking me out to prevent problems?

That and, you know, we're kind of on top of each other here.

Oh, so it's a space issue.

- It's a lot of things. - Like what, Dylan?

No, come on, like what?

Tell me the real reason why you're evicting me. Go ahead.

Well, I'm not evicting you.

- You're not? - No.

I...

- Look, Gina... - Just forget it.

- Hey... - Dylan, no don't e...

Just go to hell.

Got everything you need?

Yeah, a quick sound check and we're set for tonight.

All right, man, listen, you guys are doing a really good job.

Listen, I want to thank you for giving us a shot.

I'm making out on this deal.

Man, you guys are going to be huge... big stadiums,

- world tours, the whole works. - Yeah, I like the way you think.

You're crazy, but I like it.

Well, uh, maybe the world tours can wait,

but, uh... not the groupies.

There's a plus.

Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you'll manage.

Hey, if it was groupies I wanted,

I'd go into my cousin's line of work.

Chet, if it's groupies you want,

there is no other line of work, man, believe me.

Beach volleyball.

Your cousin plays beach volleyball, huh?

Yeah, one of the best.

His name's Wayne Moses.

That guy's your cousin?

Yep.

He dated a girl I know.

She say he was a major dog?

Yeah, you know, that's exactly what she said.

All right.

So, Steve wanted to propose?

Mm-hmm. Had the ring and everything.

But before he could get down on one knee,

Janet took his head off.

So, now they're farther apart then ever?

Maybe we should all sit down with them or something.

Yeah, skip matchmaking, go straight to intervention.

Well, it worked for me.

Of course, I was just an addict. Being a parent's a lot scarier.

- How dare you?! - Keep him away from me.

On our anniversary.

You stood up in front of our friends.

You said how wonderful I am.

Now all of a sudden, I'm a threat to you and the children?

Why don't you just calm down?

No, she's trying to take my children away from me!

The deposition ended an hour ago, Mr. Spencer.

Excuse me for taking some time getting over being called...

What was it... "volatile"?

I read the papers you filed.

The things you said about me?

You don't even know me.

I miss my boys.

I want you to go up to my office.

We'll wait until we know he's gone, okay?

- Yeah. - Want something to drink?

- Yeah, a coffee. - Coffee, okay.

Thanks.

Sorry about that.

One of them have an affair?

No, just change... drifted apart.

- Hmm. - Happens all the time.

Nothing lasts forever.

That's so depressing.

You have no idea.

Hey.

I hate men.

Well, that's an icebreaker.

They're just selfish and spoiled and... they never grow up.

Not all men, Gina,

just the ones you seem to be attracted to.

You know, Dylan could be so great.

Oh, oh, so that's... that's why you're with him.

'Cause he has potential to be great.

Yeah.

And he's extremely sexy.

I got to go do my show.

I'll see you.

Noah.

Hey, I'm expecting Janet.

Have you seen her?

I was checking I.D.s.

It's so funny, we're trying to get them together,

they don't even know about it.

Look, I'm a little busy right now, okay?

Well, wait, what do you think of the band?

They're great, right?

Yeah, yeah, they're fabulous.

Do I get, like, drinks on the house, or maybe,

oh, just a little,

"Thank you, Donna Martin," from the stage or something?

I know Wayne told you about the band.

So, what difference does it make?

What difference does it make? You lied to me.

Would you have hired them if I had told you the truth?

That is not the point here.

So, technically, yeah, I lied.

But you were in a tight spot.

I was just trying to help you out.

Well, next time, spare me the favor, okay?

Check this out.

You guys will like this. Watch.

Hello.

Robyn, hi, it's David Silver.

- How you doing? - I'm okay.

Uh, you're on the air. You okay with that?

No.

I was thinking maybe we could go out sometime.

You are so lying.

Everyone, say hi to Robyn, please.

Hi, Robyn.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no!

I will kill you. You do know this. I will kill you.

Well, you're gonna have to go out

with me first, all right?

What are you listening to?

FX reruns Quincy on Thursdays.

I was thinking maybe I could bring the popcorn...

- We can make a night of it? - You're weird.

Is that a yes?

Well...

I suppose it is.

Goal...!

Thank you.

I mean, Janet might have said yes.

Yeah, if I wanted her to... to dice my heart

into shish kebob-like slices.

No, you didn't show her the ring.

The ring is the money.

No, the only millions a girl wants from you

are those little tadpoles swimming inside your shorts.

All right.

The tadpoles are the money.

- Oh. Hey. - There you are.

I'm so sorry, the crib wasn't delivered.

And I waited for, like, ever.

And then I tried to call you

and tell you I wasn't coming, because...

I really can't handle this right now.

Janet, wait, I know you have a thousand things on your mind,

but, um... it's important.

It's about Steve.

Look, do you want to marry Janet or not?

Not if she doesn't want to marry me.

Forget about that.

What do you want?

I want to marry Janet.

Then ask her.

You know what, I'm going to do it.

I'm gonna ask her.

All right.

But not without the ring.

- The ring's the money. - That's right.

I need to practice.

Oh, Noah, people are going to start to talk.

Yeah, they are.

Janet, will you marry me?

You guys are great together.

I don't want to be with Steve.

Steve, hi.

Uh, Janet, look who it is, it's Steve.

I'm gonna be sick.

So you thought the way I asked Robyn out was rude?

It was disgraceful.

She said yes.

She's obviously very disturbed.

Listen to me, all right?

Women love jerks.

Take my friend Doug, for example.

He steals this girl away from his roommate.

Asks her to move in. She says yes.

He gets sick of her, kicks her out.

She loves him more than ever.

He wants service with a smile,

and guess what, she gives it to him.

Moron.

What the hell is your problem, huh?

You know, Dylan, a simple "thank you" would do, all right?

- For what? - I just turned you into a folk hero.

Tell you what, David, you do not discuss

my personal business on your little radio show.

You know what I just realized?

Me talking about what a jerk you are

is actually making me a star.

And I should be thanking you.

My God, Dylan, I'm sorry.

Thank you.

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... ♪

♪ All I want to do is dance with you ♪

♪ I just want to have a love that's true ♪

♪ All of my life... ♪

Oh, please! That's impossible.

I'd like to forget about her, but I can't.

Well, doesn't sound to me like you have

a lot of choice.

She's having my kid!

I didn't say forget about the kid.

I said forget his mom.

Look, Steve, you are going to be a single parent.

Now, the sooner you make peace with that,

the sooner you are gonna see that for the total

utter chick magnet that it is.

What?

Oh.

Why don't you tell Gina

I said good luck with the house hunting?

Right.

Janet.

I like neat.

I like a neat desk,

neat drawers.

I like charts and graphs and schedules.

I like order.

I thrive on order,

and, right now, I don't have order.

I have chaos. And I hate chaos.

Chaos just freaks me out.

And chaos is messy.

You are messy!

Ergo, I freak you out.

Completely!

Because I'm messy?

And unpredictable and unreliable,

and I am so completely in love with you, it terrifies me!

Janet...

Don't, okay?!

Just...

The thing is, Steve, is that you surprise me,

and sometimes that is so great.

And sometimes...

I'm sorry,

but I just can't be surprised right now.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Matt told me where you'd be.

Look, I-I want to apologize.

I'm sorry. I should have told you

how I knew about the band.

Okay, why didn't you?

'Cause I thought it would hurt your feelings.

It's a little late for that.

Look, I am so embarrassed

about what happened with Wayne.

It was stupid, and I wish it'd never happened.

Yeah? It did.

Yeah, and it did with you and Cherise, too.

I know where you ate, what you did.

I could, I could let this freak me out

or I can deal with it.

What happened with me and Cherise was after we broke up.

Okay? I wasn't unfaithful.

Well, it still hurts.

It's not even close.

I know.

Look, I know this is harder for you,

but they're out of our lives now,

and as soon as you and I can start focusing on us again,

the sooner we can move on with our lives.

This one, right here.

Two bedrooms, two bath,

hardwood floors, fireplace,

- Jacuzzi... - Oh, stop!

I don't want to hear about it!

They can make a death camp sound inviting.

Ugh!

We'll find something.

No, I'm gonna find something.

Just... You know what?

I don't, I don't need you.

I mean, I don't need your help.

Don't you think you're making a little much out of this?

Yeah, Dylan, I'm sure somehow it's my fault

that you don't want to live with me.

No, it's not anyone's fault.

It's just not... it's not the right time.

Or maybe I'm just not the right girl.

I really want to do this alone, all right?

Yeah, but I wanted to help...

I want to do this alone, okay?

Just go away.

So that's where your whole radio bit comes from?

Pretty much, yeah.

You as a loser?

Well, in high school, um,

I was five-four.

I had really big hair...

Much bigger than it is now... And an extremely high voice.

So you were the trusty, reliable best friend...

I just thought my listeners would appreciate

a few tips on avoiding

the "I love you, but I'm not in love with you" speech.

See, now, I just don't see anybody giving you that speech.

Oh, that's good.

You want to dance?

You know, is this part of the whole routine?

I mean, you know, rule number one:

"On first date, tell sob story."

No, rule number one is "Make her feel like a queen."

The whole dweeb story's optional.

Let's dance. Come on.

Yeah, dancing would be good, huh?

Thank you.

For what?

For going out with me tonight.

See? This is nice.

Just you and I.

You know I love you?

What?

I'm sorry. I-I just hate your attitude.

I had a difficult marriage.

My parents are divorced.

That just affects how I think.

You don't believe in happily ever after.

That affects how I think.

Just because I worry about our future

doesn't mean I don't think we have one.

Let's just... let's just forget it.

Great.

Isn't that your client?

Judy.

Looks like she's having a good time.

Know what? On second thought, I'd like to go home.

You want to go home just because Judy's having fun?

No, because Judy's divorced and you're divorced,

and practically everybody I know is divorced.

And Steve and Janet are getting divorced before they ever

- get married. - She's happy. I'm happy.

You're waiting to be unhappy.

It's like you're expecting it.

And the thought that I should be expecting it, too...

depresses the hell out of me.

You're a good dancer.

I'm sorry. What was that?

I said I like this.

The construction manual

says the spring goes between the rail and the bracket.

Rail and the bracket, of course.

The joys of single motherhood.

Matt could not annoy me more.

Sure he could. He could be Steve.

Or Noah.

Even a distant third could be quite disturbing.

He has this saying:

He doesn't believe in forever.

It's like the Hallmark card from hell.

Are you okay? -

I think the baby just kicked me.

Right here.

Ooh, I felt that!

Oh... Oh...

Steve's here.

Just tell him to wait a minute.

I'm okay. I'm okay.

I like messy.

Messy's good.

I thrive on messy.

Yeah, I know, and that's the problem.

No, the problem is neat.

It's tidy. It's meticulous.

I got news for you, Janet.

Life isn't about charts or graphs.

It's about dealing with disorder!

That's what life's about.

Everything that's on that list, Steve, is important:

doctors' appointments, ultrasounds, all confirmed,

all-all important, all scheduled.

Well, that must come as quite a relief for you.

You can find out the baby's sex

and paint the nursery accordingly.

Yeah, well, I care enough to find out.

I care.

I just don't feel the need

to prove my affections towards my child to anyone.

I know.

I don't want to know,

'cause I want to be surprised.

I want to stand next to you in the delivery room

and squeeze your hand when the doctor tells us

we're gonna have a boy o...

or a girl!

And then I want to come home,

and I want to trip over that kid's toys and...

clean up his mess.

His mess.

Our mess.

Mm-hmm.

Great. Yeah, i-it says wall-to-wall carpeting...

What is that, shag?

Yeah, it's lovely.

Listen, it says that it's sunny... is it sunny?

Yeah, you know what, just forget it,

I-I'll come down.

Yeah, yeah, I'm... I'm on my way.

Bye.

On my way to Reseda.

You know, I had a client that lived in Reseda.

Claimed her neighbor's dog was the reincarnation

- of her dead husband. - Oh, I don't deserve this.

Hi.

- Hi. - Judy, I'm glad you're here.

Uh, the next deposition is

in an hour, and I have a lot of questions for you.

Um, what I want to do is focus on your husband's temper.

You know, things he said in anger,

times he raised his voice.

He's a good man.

Yeah, I'm sure he is.

A good father, too.

Judy...

I will go in whatever direction you're comfortable with,

but this is a custody battle,

and custody battles tend to get ugly.

Your husband's lawyers are gonna try to rip you apart in court.

That's why we've got to be prepared for the fight.

We're talking about reconciliation.

Um...

all right, maybe... I had a few too many root beers,

but didn't I see you at the Peach Pit After Dark

last night, dancing?

Hmm? With someone other than your husband?

Frank Norton... divorced father of a friend of my oldest.

For years, I'd see him at school functions

and wonder, "What if...?"

Now I know.

First kiss... tongue from hell.

Judy, I was under the impression

there was more to your separation than that.

I mean, you sat right here and talked about growing apart.

You-You sat here and talked about

not knowing each other anymore.

I thought those were reasons to give up; I was wrong.

So now you want to stay together,

even though you admit that what you had didn't last.

What we had changed.

And like a lot of people, we didn't

see it happening, and we panicked

when we realized it had.

But it didn't end.

I don't think it ever will.

And now you think it's forever.

Yes, I do.

There's the head,

and the spinal cord, the feet and toes.

We can estimate the height and weight

and project what the baby will be at birth.

- Do you want to know? - Are you kidding?

I want to know everything.

Hi.

Sorry I'm late. How's my baby?

Doing great.

How's my girl?

Uh, I'm... not really sure.

You know, Janet, I was up late last night

trying to figure it out, and mess, no mess...

I don't care.

We could finish this later.

This isn't how I practiced it, but what the hell?

- What are you doing? - Janet...

would you do me the incredible honor

of being my wife?

Yes, all right!

I love you.

Oops.

Ooh.

There.

It's perfect.

How much longer, Doc?

The only thing left is the sex of the baby.

Do you want to know?

No, we don't.

It turns out there aren't enough surprises in life.

Hello?

- Hi, David. It's Robyn. - Robyn, hey. What's up?

Hi. I just called to wish you good luck with the show tonight.

Thank you very much.

Hey, can't wait to hear about the date.

What?

Hold on a second.

Huh? What are you talking about?

The date. The one you set up on the air.

I predict record numbers tuning to hear how it went.

Oh, well, people are gonna be disappointed,

'cause I'm not talking about it.

Uh-huh. Like they're gonna

let you talk about something else?

Sorry about that.

No problem. Listen, you're busy.

Um, I just called to let you know that I'd be listening.

Okay?

So, um... bye.

Bye.

Hi.

Hey. Thanks for coming down.

- I owe you. - Well, yesterday you thought

you owed Wayne.

You sure it wasn't the response

of them that made you change your mind?

Yeah, I'm sure.

I just don't like to be reminded all the time.

It's over, you know that.

I know.

It's this whole, uh, starting over thing.

- Yeah? - Exactly which part

would you like to start at?

What do you suggest?

I like this right here.

- Hm? - How about this?

I like that.

Mm.

All right, let's go to the phones.

Bill, you're on.

Hey! I want details on the date!

Lost you, Bill. Chuck, how you doing?

I got 20 bucks says you scored.

Did I win or lose?

Doug. What's up, buddy?

Doesn't feel good being on the other end, does it?

Having people talk about you.

Or are you just not answering questions

because the date was a bust?

Doug, I'm not answering questions

because it's nobody else's business.

In other words,

you crashed and burned, huh, tough guy?

- No. - So you scored?

Or is it a question of,

those who can do, and those who can't

just talk about it on the radio?

You guys want to hear about my date?

Fine.

Hi.

Hey.

You know, I, uh, I've been thinking about what you said,

expecting to be unhappy, and, uh, well, you shouldn't have to.

Then why do you?

Well, I didn't

before losing Lauren, and...

after, I guess it just made things easier.

Protected against the down side.

That's no way to live.

Uh, my client, the one we saw last night,

she and her husband decided to reconcile.

Really?

Mm-hmm.

Did you hear about Steve and Janet?

Mm, yes, I did.

Don't look now, but you are surrounded

by happily-ever-after.

I hope so.

It's Robyn.

I want you to know that I have never been more humiliated.

Asking me out on the air was one thing,

but talking about what we did and how we kissed

when you knew that I was listening to the show?

I'm sorry, but that is just plain cruel.

Hey, where you been?

I was trying to call you.

I have been in Reseda.

I actually rented an apartment in beautiful Reseda.

I put a first and last down in Reseda.

And don't give me the speech about

this is the best thing for me, because it's not.

Well, then luckily for me, I have a fallback.

- Oh, I could get violent. - Even if I said

I don't want you to live in Reseda?

My worst enemy wouldn't want me to live in Reseda.

Well, then how about if I said I want you to stay at the hotel?

What'd you say?

Will you pinch me?

- What'd you just say? - I want you to stay

at the hotel, and I've made all the arrangements.

Oh, my God, you...

Oh...

Oh, I just knew...

I mean, I didn't... I didn't...

I didn't know that you would come around,

but I just... I hoped that you would come around.

Oh, we'll have so much fun living together.

Yeah. Well, you know, it's not

- exactly together. - Yeah, you just said

- you want me to stay with you. - In the hotel.

- Oh. - See, I got you a room,

and it's one floor below, and just for kicks,

I entered you in as Mrs. McKay.

Wait, you-you signed me in as your wife,

but you got me a separate room?

Hey, you can kiss Reseda good-bye.

Yeah, along with my self-esteem.

You know, I-I thought you wanted to stay here.

Dylan, I... did want to stay here.

I wanted to stay...

here with you, you know, as your girlfriend.

Not down the hall like some concubine.

You make it sound cheap.

Well, it feels cheap.

- You want it or not? - No, I don't. What-what...

a separate room for services rendered?

I guess that's what you think I deserve.

I thought white would be good either way,

boy or girl.

We can get unisex stuff

and then fill in with the right color later.

I'm so sorry.

For what?

For pushing you away.

For saying no.

For being an idiot.

Come here.

Come here.

I was just so scared, you know?

That I'd let you get close to me

and that, one day, you'd leave me.

That you'd realize that...

you married me for all the wrong reasons.

That's not gonna happen.

I love you...

and like it or not, you're stuck with me.

I like it.

I have a surprise for you.

- You do? - Yes.

What is it?

I think it's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.

That's because this baby looks just like its mother.
