The Way We Were
1 I've got it good That's what they say But I'd rather be lucky I'd rather be lucky What's good is good And that's okay But I'd rather be lucky Be lucky with you Wow.
You seen this guy's car? Think Michael found himself a sugar daddy.
Remember.
No, I know.
I know.
Behave myself.
Um, can you Okay.
Ryan.
Kate.
Nice to meet you.
You've been practicing? Yeah.
I have a good teacher.
Ah, jeez.
Christ.
Why are you so sweaty? Because it's hot.
Hey, man.
You must be Danny.
Yeah.
Just leave the bags.
I'll get 'em later.
Let's drink.
Okay.
Rosé? I.
P.
A.
? Great.
Come on.
Oh, I'm Safari You're so far out I'm Safari, Safari, Safari, so far out Everyone's in black, and I'm Safari Jack I'm dressed in beige And all these strangers But somehow I still feel stranger Sweeter, so, baby, won't you comfort me? And pour your sweet, blond lies into my teeth Oh, I'm Safari This house is sick.
Thanks.
It's been my family's vacation home since the '70s.
I would love to have a house out here.
Pretty sure Kate would like it, too.
You know, you two should use this place whenever you want.
I'm barely here.
Really? Yeah.
That would be awesome.
And then when you're ready to buy your own place, I'm your man.
I actually just put in an offer on a house in L.
A.
Who's your Realtor? Will Hudson at Ah, that guy's a chump.
Right? And he always smells like Corn Nuts for some reason.
Yes.
It's weird.
So, uh, how good are you at signing now? Mm.
I really should be better.
I'm trying to.
Pro tip, practice, dude.
Like, practice in your car.
In traffic, just practice, practice, practice.
Oh, I'm Safari You're so far I'm Safari, Safari, Safari ["There Is No Hourglass, Only Sand" playing.]
This body I inhabit seems to feel like my true self But that ain't right No, that ain't right What? No! You're cheating.
Okay, I totally saw you signing up there.
You're signing Yes.
I Not fair.
You were signing.
I know the score.
Well, that score is inflated.
Why are we on a team together? I don't know.
Let's mix up the teams.
Let's mix it up.
Yeah? Cheers.
To the champs.
To the champions.
So the big move went well? Ah, it couldn't have gone better.
I mean, I've always loved that house, but now it's really a home.
He means I put stuff on the walls.
Oh.
I had stuff on the walls.
A Clippers schedule does not count.
Yeah, it does.
Thank you.
You see that game on Wednesday? Ooh, Crawford was so off.
I don't know who Rivers sent in to play, but it sure as hell wasn't him.
It's not a one-man show.
I mean, people depend on Griffin for that.
You're a basketball fan? I love basketball.
I used to go to the Georgia Bulldog games with my dad all the time.
You got yourself a keeper, man.
I know.
I go to the games.
Not really.
When the company gives us tickets for the box, I go.
When he gets the tickets for the floor, I let Paul take Danny.
That's true.
It's better for everyone that way.
Right.
Of course.
I mean, sometimes when you get too close, all the magic disappears.
Uh, I don't know if I agree with you on that.
Sweetie, come on.
At a distance, looks like they're glowing.
Then up close, you realize it's just sweat.
Mm-hmm.
Come on.
I like her.
Of course.
There you are.
Hey.
You okay? Yeah.
You sure? Yeah.
What's It's just it can get, like, a little tiring sometimes just trying to, like, keep up and read everybody's lips.
You know, but it's fine.
I'm fine.
I'm sorry.
No.
Thank you so much for doing this.
Of course.
He loves you.
No, he loves you.
Well, yeah.
I mean, of course he does.
I mean, well, I love you, so I love you.
Ah.
Yeah! Oh, yeah, daddy.
What? Wait.
What? Oh, my God.
They're having sex.
Oh.
That's sweet.
No, no, it's not.
Yes, it is.
They've been married for, like, so long.
Just they're still No.
She's saying, "Give it to me, Daddy.
"You're so big.
It hurts so good.
" Oh, my God.
Yeah, oh, my God.
She did not say that.
Yes, she did.
You're making that up.
Yes.
[yelling, moaning continues.]
Am I so big, it hurts? Not really, no.
I'm gonna hurt you for that.
Brilliant.
It's fucking brilliant.
Hey, why'd you make me wait so long to read it? And the publishers want a sequel? That is so fucking exciting.
Shut up.
Shut up, please.
Wait, wait, wait.
Never mind.
Forget it.
It's fine.
I want to watch us.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It'd be hot.
It's cool if you don't want to.
I want to marry you, so yeah.
Come on.
Yeah? Whoa.
Hey, hey.
Whoa.
You okay? I have no idea what you said.
No hearing aids, remember? I said you look very hot.
Okay.
You do.
Very hot.
Hey, guys.
Hey.
Front door was open.
I hope you don't mind.
Welcome.
This is Courtney.
Living my best life! Whoa! Ah, okay.
Oh, shit.
My phone.
Can you pass the salt? Could you say that again? The salt? Can you pass it? Oh, yeah.
That's great.
I'm, like, so bored.
I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
You want to come? I'm good.
Thanks.
I don't think that's something you have to worry about, all right? We had one of our best fiscal years last year, so that's gonna tide us over.
Right, right.
I know the company is gonna be fine, but what about all the positions within it? You know, how are we gonna absorb all this turnover? My job, I'm safe, right? I know that the newest executives are always the ones that get let go.
It's out of my hands.
But you've always been like a son to me.
You know that.
That's never gonna change.
That's good.
Right? Kate how's your salmon? Fine.
I much prefer when it's sous-vide.
Paul likes his cooked on a cedar plank.
Um What? What'd she say? Nothing.
It's an inside joke.
What was that? I'm sorry, okay? It was just it was really hard.
Everybody was sitting around the table, talking Okay, okay.
Don't worry about it.
I understand.
There's nothing to talk about.
Okay.
Are they having loud, weird sex right now? No.
It's totally quiet.
Oh, no way.
Yeah.
That's disappointing.
Could you not? Please? Yeah.
[indistinct dialogue.]
Hi.
So you're the one who finally tamed this guy, huh? Oh, wow.
You actually do know how to sign.
You weren't kidding.
Yeah.
Okay.
For this guy, of course.
I'm really happy for you guys.
Hey.
You good? Hey.
You coming to the hot tub? Yeah.
Yeah? Yeah.
What's up, man? Coming in? I just bought a ring.
Fuck.
Paul won't even call me back.
I don't know what to do.
It's gonna be okay, all right? I'll keep an eye out for some job openings, and I have friends at Weston and Mason.
You'll figure it out.
The ring, the mortgage I cannot tell Kate right now.
Ah, that is so cool.
Thanks.
Yeah, we just had it installed last month.
Oh, sweet.
[indistinct conversation.]
I'm turning it off.
[Adam speaking indistinctly.]
Hey.
Hey.
It didn't mean anything.
I can explain.
Just I I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Just listen.
Oh, shit! What the fuck? Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Chill out.
Danny.
You need to chill out.
You can't hold him like that.
Kate! You all right? Hey.
Hey, hey.
Hey, where are you going? I'm not leaving him here in this house with that fucker.
Are you kidding me? Whoa, whoa, whoa.
We don't even know the whole story yet.
I don't need to.
It's Michael.
Okay, so just blind faith, no matter what? What? Never mind.
Look, are you okay to drive? Yeah.
Can I get a kiss? Drive safe.
Yeah.
You seen this guy's car? Think Michael found himself a sugar daddy.
Remember.
No, I know.
I know.
Behave myself.
