I Can See Right Through Myself
1
[EVAN] This is Leo.
He was studying abroad last year.
Can I get your number?
- [SMACKS]
- [GRUNTS]
Fuckin' asshole.
It's Pippa, right?
So, why does the whole
football team hate you?
[PIPPA]
I broke the quarterback's heart.
Pippa! Out of the line!
[DIANA]
Found her half-dressed in that room,
and that guy Chris just
walks out of the bathroom.
- Hey.
- [DIANA] He acted like
he got caught doing something.
We're gonna get you home.
[SLOW, MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING]
- [BEEP]
- Um, do you
Thank you for helping her.
Do you remember anything?
Nothing with Chris?
I know that's your best friend's
little brother.
That does not matter.
I'm really sorry for hurting you so badly.
I probably eroded
any sense of dignity you had.
I can't tell Bree
who to be friends with, dude.
I break up with her,
she's just around all my friends.
[PIPPA]
You shared a cigarette with a teacher?
[BREE]
He reached over and took out my earring.
[LUCY]
Well, he was definitely flirting with you.
- I think I cheated.
- I'm done.
I met someone who actually listened,
and I could've gone home with him,
but I didn't.
Hey, Professor Banks.
Could I come by your office later?
[BANKS] This is Stephen DeMarco.
Your new TA.
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]
[CAR DOOR OPENS]
Never been to a joint
bachelor-bachelorette party before.
- [SOFT LAUGH] Me neither.
- [MUFFLED CLUB MUSIC PLAYING]
It's kinda cute though.
Thank you for coming with me.
You don't have to thank me.

We're supposed to be celebrating
your last days of being single!
[EVAN]
Well, I'm not single. I'm engaged.
You're not not single
until you're married.
- Stephen!
- [STEPHEN] Yeah?
- Please, back me up here.
- I No! [LAUGHS] I don't
I never really got
the bachelor party thing.
Like, why would I wanna get
a lap dance from a stripper,
when I can just have sex
with my hot fiancée?
- Lydia ruined you!
- [LAUGHS]
- [STEPHEN] Okay.
- Yeah, you're no fun!
No, I-I think I honestly
just got it outta my system.
Well, I believe in love and strippers.
Where is Lydia anyways?
Oh, she had a last-minute

She's gonna be at the wedding though.

They're bigger than my areolas.
What? Your areolas are a perfect size!
They're perfect!
[PIPPA] I know they're perfect.
I just said that your pupils are bigger.
[GIGGLES] I don't even know what I'm on!
Evan's cousin

Would you rather me be rude?
No.
Why does this guy
still bother you so much?
Look, if he'd been, like, abusive,
I'd obviously fuckin' kill him,
but he's just some
random asshole at this point.
Max, he's not he's not a good person.
I don't want him infecting this.
I don't want him infecting any part

No, I'm cold-stone sober!
- Oh, really? [LAUGHS]
- [PIPPA] Yeah.
[MUFFLED MUSIC CONTINUES]
I really wish you would've
come with me tonight.
- I know.
- [PIPPA] Yeah.
But that would require you
being seen in public with me,
which obviously isn't an option, so
You know that's not the reason
I didn't come. I just
have no interest in being
around those people again.
[PIPPA] Yeah, but it's not about them.
It's about me. You'd be doing it for me.

is for you to fuck off.
Okay, yeah.
Always good to see you.
- I'm fine.
- Oh, I didn't say anything.
Yeah, but I knew what you were thinking.
This is so weird, Pippa.
This is so weird seeing him be so nice.

Diana? Are you there?

I'm not sure what you want me to say.
Do you want me to tell you to leave him?

don't let people leave them.
They're the only ones
who get to do the leaving.
Listen, Mom. Dad loves you.
He can be harsh, but he takes
really good care of you.
He wouldn't do that if

I find that confusing, considering all
the shit you gave me
about her last year.
If that was actually nothing,
you probably woulda told me about it.
Okay.
She came at me, on campus.
She wanted to talk or whatever.
I don't know, I guess
she's still not over everything.
But, I just told her to fuck off.
It was honestly really sad.

Look, we both know
that Stephen is capable
of some fucked-up stuff.
I know you know that.
But I don't think you're aware
of how far it goes.
Something happened with him last year
and I didn't tell anybody
because I swore to him I wouldn't,
and, honestly, I was I was scared.
What?
Stephen was in the car
with Macy when she died.
They were sleeping together that summer,
before she even got here.
They're from the same town,
they were hooking up,
and they were together at
a house party during Welcome Week.
Macy got drunk,
she drove them home,
and they got in a wreck on the way.
And he was in the car when she died.
H-He saw her die
and didn't fucking do anything.
Didn't call for help.
He just fucking left her there.
And I thought you should know.
Yeah, okay. Thanks.
