Felicity s02e08 Episode Script
Family Affairs
Previously on "Felicity" Turns out Maggie Maggie's married, which is crazy.
I mean, what am I gonna do, break up a marriage? I just want to cut to the chase, if possible.
- What do you mean - I want to have an affair with you.
Before I met you.
I didntt even want to get involved with anyone and now I'm spending time with someone I really care about.
I don't know how this is gonna go between us but right now, we have a very good thing and I don't want to screw that up.
Neither do I.
- Hey! I thought you were at work.
- I blew it off.
Hi.
It's me.
I'm just leaving a message for my parents.
Come in.
Um, yeah, I was just checking on you.
Uh, call me back.
I love you.
Bye.
- I think they're mad at me.
- Why? What'd you do? Um, oh, I just, uh I told them I wasn't coming home for Thanksgiving that I had too much classwork, but I think that they think I don't really have that much classwork.
- Do you? - Not really.
So do you have plans? My only plan is to not go home.
'Cause if you want, we could hang out at my place get some frozen turkey dinners and have a non-crazy, pressure-free Thanksgiving.
Wait a second.
- What's going on? - Nothing.
Thanksgiving together is a great idea.
Oh, wait.
Oh, my God.
Meghan! - Oh, yeah.
So listen.
- We had a deal.
The Post-it on the door means do not come in.
- Yeah, but, listen, I have to - For once, you could respect my privacy.
God.
You finally get a little and now youre like some freaky sexaholic.
- Y- youre calling me a freak? - OK.
No need to get into For your information, nympho I barged in here as a favor.
- A favor? - I was going to let you know what I just saw down in the lobby, but since youre being such a bitch I'll let you find out for yourself.
What are you talking about? Come in! Mom! Dad! Dear Sally OK, so this is going to sound terrible but my parents came to visit, and I want them to go home.
I mean, of course I love them.
You know that, but I cut my hair, and I dropped Premed and I'm sleeping with a photographer.
I mean, there are these things about my life that they just know nothing about and I'm not really in the mood to share it with them.
So we wanted to surprise you.
Well, hey, it worked.
Your dad and I thought that if you werent going to come home for Thanksgiving we'd come here and have it with you.
So we got in late last night.
We got a suite at the Regency and we thought while you were studying we could shop.
See some shows.
And Hi.
I'm sorry.
Mom, Dad, this is David.
Nice meeting you.
Good to meet you.
I've heard a lot about you.
- Youre a student here? - A grad student.
Photography.
I'm sorry.
You can talk.
Grad student, Photography.
And you know Meghan, right? - Oh, yeah.
Hi.
- Hi.
Good to see you again, Meghan.
How are you holding up as an R.
A.
? Well.
The hardest part is making sure youre really helping the kids.
Oh.
Speaking of which.
I got to go.
I'm starting a recycling campaign.
So, honey, you pick the restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner and, in the meantime, your mother and I will get lost so that you can do all that studying that you said you had to do.
Actually, David and I were going to - We sort of - Had plans.
Um, yeah.
Only sort of, but, um Well.
Why dont you come along? No! I mean, no, right? You don't want to If I'm not intruding.
Of course not.
We are the ones who barged in here.
So, it's a plan.
OK.
Uh.
Benjamin um, how would you like to make a lot of money? Well, relatively speaking for you, of course.
- What, you want to give me a raise? - No, I'm not stupid.
This is for Thanksgiving.
- Youre not going away for the holiday? - Please say no.
- I need to hear no from you now.
- No.
No, I'm not.
OK, good.
So I will be thanking yor for giving me Thanksgiving a little bit of your time for this charity event here tomorrow.
Javier, I don't know.
I was just kind of hoping to kick back.
Kick back? Whatever happened to the little thing called work ethic around here? Javier, it's Thanksgiving.
It's a national holiday in this country.
Oh, really? Thank you very much.
I'll mark that in my calendar.
I'm desperate.
I can't find nobody to work.
OK.
I'll give you and any friend you can find to help Here you go.
- Double what you get now.
- Youre going to pay me double? In cash, over the table.
It's under the table.
- OK, that, too.
- All right, I'll do it, and I'll ask my roommates because they're staying in town, too.
Do you know why I like you? - No, why? - No, I'm asking.
Hi.
How you doing? You still havent told them yet? The Premed thing is not an easy subject with my dad.
- He'll freak, won't he? - Yeah.
I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't even tell them at all.
OK.
No.
No.
I'll talk to you later.
So Ruby can't make it back for Thanksgiving.
They extended her schedule in the movie.
Apparently the lead actress fell off a horse and pulled her patella.
Her patella? You can't pull a patella.
A patella's a bone.
What? Great.
So it's just the two of us for Thanksgiving unless Why don't you and your parents come over here? I'm making tons of food.
It'll be fun.
- Really? - Yeah, yeah.
Bring them over.
Um, David was going to come with us, so You guys are going to have your dinner with the parents.
That's You guys are getting pretty serious.
No.
I mean, not serious serious.
Well, if they all come over here it'll be like a party and less holiday pressure.
- Then I won't have to deal with just Noel.
- Thanks.
All right.
We'll ask them.
I got to go meet them for lunch now, anyway.
It'll be fun.
Yeah.
Thanks a lot, you guys.
Bye.
See ya.
- Patella's a bone? - Yeah, it's your kneecap.
- Because I'm going to call her.
- Call her.
- All right.
I think.
Hey.
Hey, maybe after this thing tomorrow we can do our own dinner at the loft.
- Oh, yeah, like a real Thanksgiving? - Yeah, as long as I don't have to cook.
No, no, I'll cook.
- Did you guys know you can deep-fry a turkey? What? Yeah, it's really dangerous.
Oh, thanks God you are here.
OK.
I just had two servers back down on me so thank you.
Usually when I seal up a deal I do it on a handshake, you know but the last time I did that all the waiters went home with the silverware a little gift with purchase so please, sign the bottom, please.
OK, I'm going to need an exclusivity clause, though stating that you agree to put Smoothaise on every serving platter, and then we're all set.
- Smooth who? - Smoothaise.
It's a new condiment Sean made up.
- It's not so bad.
- Not so bad? Hello.
Hey.
Javier, I'd like to go over the final plans for tomorrow.
Absolutely.
I was just getting the waiters together.
These are them.
Heh.
OK.
Come with me.
Great.
- Oh, this is her party? - I had no idea, believe me.
Why? Who's that? Her.
- Oh, that's her.
- Yes.
Shh.
So this is your college hang-out, huh? It's sort of a bar.
It's It's more like a cafe.
I mean, they have food here, so - Is your sandwich OK? - It's OK.
I'd call it sort of a pub.
So your hair is really It's a different look for you.
- I mean, I like it.
- I like it, too.
Thanks.
Hey, so David seems like a pretty nice guy.
How old is he? That's quite a bit older than you.
So how long have you two been seeing each other? Um, about a month now.
- Oh.
- What? Oh, nothing.
It's just you hadn't mentioned him, and then you said the two of you had made Thanksgiving plans so it seems youre moving pretty fast.
Are you keeping up with your studies? How's Biochem? Now, that's a hard course, right? Is it going OK? I dropped Premed.
What? When did this happen? My schedule was so full that I didn't have time to take anything else and I really wanted to take art courses which I'm loving right now and the truth is, I just I wasn't willing to give everything else up in order to pursue something I wasn't even sure about.
What's going on with you? Youve given up medicine, youre dating an older man Dad, he's not that much older.
You cut your hair and you don't even tell us about it? There are a lot of things about me you guys don't know.
Like what, sweetie? Nothing.
Like nothing.
Just forget it.
Where are you going? It's just a little overwhelming sitting here and being judged about my life.
I mean, this pub and my major and my hair and my relationship with David and I have to go to work anyway, so I'll just I'll give you guys a call at the hotel later.
So just write down the stuff you want, and I'll order it.
And get the stuffing without raisins.
I hate raisins.
I care.
Hey, Felicity.
Youre actually making dinner at the dorm? No.
I told some of these losers that were stuck here over the break that I would order something.
They said it counts towards my community service hours.
I don't want to talk about it.
Anyway, your boyfriend is in there again which is annoying.
Hey.
I was just leaving you a note.
What's wrong? I just experienced a time warp right back to high school.
Ah, lunch with your parents? Yeah.
- I thought you had prints to make.
- I did.
I do, but I was thinking about you.
I wanted to stop by, so I did.
Hmm.
That's sweet of you.
Um, I actually have to get to work, though.
OK.
Oh, and, hey, if it's all right we're going to have Thanksgiving at Noel and Elena's just to make things more confusing.
Ah.
Well.
Speaking of making things more confusing my mother, who usually travels over Thanksgiving has decided not to this year.
She'd love to meet your parents.
What? Youre right.
I'm telling her no.
Um, but, I mean, no.
She can't spend Thanksgiving alone.
- Have her come.
- Yeah? Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Why are you throwing a party where I work? - And hello to you, too.
- You have to move it somewhere else.
- You have to.
- Ben, I can't.
All the arrangements have been made and it was my husband's idea to have it at Dean & Deluca.
He had it there last year.
It just didn't mean anything to you then.
You know, I met him.
Yeah, I met your husband.
He ordered a cake for your anniversary and he told me how much you love butterflies and how youve been together for 3 years.
Maggie, he seems like a pretty nice guy.
Is that why you haven't called? I can't do this anymore.
Ben, I am so sorry.
I didn't mean for that to happen.
I never meant to lie to you.
It's just, my relationship with my husband is complicated.
Maggie, this party, it's going to be I know.
It's going to be weird but it would mean a lot to me just just for you to be there.
I mean, I miss you.
I do.
Mom! No! Youre Felicity's mother? - Yes.
- Ohh! Ohh! Oh, my God, at last we meet! Your daughter's an angel.
You have no idea how much I love her.
- I'm Javier, the manager.
- I figured.
OK.
This is so emotional for me.
OK.
If you need anything, anything let me know.
OK? It's on the house.
- Thanks, I will.
- OK.
Sorry about that.
Do you have a second? Yeah.
Of course.
Just, um sit down.
Let me clean this up.
David seems like a sweet guy.
I shouldn't have implied that you two were moving too fast.
I just You were right.
It's not my place to say.
Thank you.
I do want to get to know him better.
I'm really looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with him.
I got something for him.
I saw this at the gift shop at the Met.
You said he studies photography.
It's a collection of photographs from the 1940s.
Mom, you didn't have to do that.
I know.
But I'm I'm sure he'll love it.
So is Dad furious about the Premed thing? You should talk to him.
Professor Sherman coming here? Yeah.
I' m sorry I didnt mention it earlier.
I've just been a little distracted.
- Did you write down cranberry sauce? - Yeah, it's there.
- No, Professor Sherman cannot come here.
- What's your problem? Teachers should stay in school.
They should not come to my house.
Besides, you dont even know her.
She is this incredibly intimidating just force of nature! And youre supposed to give her a call and let her know what she can bring.
What? No, I'm not I'm not calling her.
I haven't even gotten my midterm project back yet.
I could've failed.
Youre not bailing out on me.
Youre the co-host.
Now, will you just go pick the stuff up? Of course I'll go pick it up.
I'm the co-host.
So how's David? He's good.
Good.
He did this really sweet thing today.
He stopped by twice out of the blue once in the morning and once in the afternoon and then he walked me to work.
So, what's the problem? - Do you think he's getting more serious than you are? - No.
Um I dont know.
Just today, it felt like I know that's really presumptuous of me.
I'm I'm sure I'm overreacting.
So how's he taking this whole parent Thanksgiving thing? He seems OK with it.
Well, just so you know, the normal reaction would be for him to be freaked out like you are.
My mom actually bought him a gift today.
Oh, well, if that doesn't freak him out, youre in real trouble.
- You think? - Oh, yeah.
A gift from your parents? That's like saying welcome to the family.
See how he takes the gift.
It's a good way to make sure youre on the same page.
Yeah.
I hope we are.
I mean, I really like him, but we're just starting out.
I mean, it's not that serious.
And this is where we set up the bar and everything like that, tequila, champagne and this is the blue water.
It's not really blue.
It's just the bottle.
- OK.
- Let me show you the desserts.
This is crazy.
How much food's gonna be left over by the time this guy Oh.
I know.
Well.
Why dont we sneak Guys, I know what youre talking about.
I just want you to know everything is going to be fine, all right? Actually, we were just wondering if we could take home any leftover food.
But we're glad everything's going to be fine.
Yeah.
That that's her husband.
- Really? - Her husband? She's married? Could you guys please, could you keep it down? Please? - Wow.
- I didn't know.
Yeah, I know.
I wasn't exactly advertising it.
Hi.
I' m Charlie Sherwood.
You guys are the wait staff for tomorrow evening, right? - Yeah.
- Hi.
There's going to be a lot of stuffy rich people here tomorrow evening so I apologize in advance for their behavior.
My wife's a caterer.
I don't know how she deals with these people.
- Great.
- I'm sure you guys know what youre doing.
Hey, youre the kid who sold me the cake last week, right? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Thanks again.
My wife loved it.
It was fantastic.
Thanks.
- Good.
Good.
- Yeah.
All right.
I'm ready for the pumpkin.
OK.
Thanks.
You know, I should warn you my parents are a little too excited about getting to know you.
I don't mind.
I really like them.
Really? Proof.
This is from my mom to you.
A gift? I know.
It's so crazy, but I got them something, too.
It's this book on New York, places to see.
Things to do for whenever they're visiting.
Wow.
That's so sweet of you.
David, you don't have to do this I mean, be so nice about my parents.
I won't be upset, like, at all if they drive you crazy and you just don't want to admit it.
You can tell me.
How could I not like your parents? They're part of you, the person I'm falling in love with.
Love? I mean, he said the word love? Wow! What'd you say? Nothing.
I mean, I I was just in shock.
Love.
I mean, I thought things were going so well.
We have a great time just hanging out.
I really like him, and I really like spending time with him.
Look at you, our little Felicity.
Oh, God.
All those people are going to be at my apartment any minute.
I told Noel that we needed more salad stuff but he never listens.
The thing is, I'm not in love with David and I thought the two of us felt the same way about that.
I thought things were just kind of casual.
He's the sweetest guy, and I've completely misled him.
- I'm a horrible, callous person! - That's a little extreme.
I mean, you didn't know how strongly he felt until last night, and he is moving a little quickly.
Oh, my God! I'm the Ben of this situation.
David has all these strong feelings, and I led him on.
- Come on.
Youre not Ben.
- I am.
I'm Ben.
That's a completely different thing.
Can you grab a couple of tomatoes? What am I gonna do? Eventually, talk to him but right now, help me get the rest of this stuff so we can feed those people.
Youre right.
I have to talk to him but I have got to talk to him right away.
Listen, you cannot talk to David tonight not during Thanksgiving at my apartment where I am hosting you, David, your parents, and his mother.
Promise me you won't do it tonight.
- Professor Sherman, hi.
- Hi.
Can I come in? I'm carrying 5 heavy bottles in these bags and I need to use the loo.
The loo as in the bathroom.
Yeah, of course.
Um, come in.
It's right over there.
Here.
Oh, thanks.
So, how are those midterm projects coming? Fine.
Thanks.
- Good.
Mr.
And Mrs.
Porter, hi.
- Hello, Noel.
- How are you? It's good to see you.
Um, you know what? You can put your jackets in the back room back there.
- Good to see you.
- How've you been? Good.
Felicity and Elena will be here any minute, OK? Hold on.
What about that sauce, huh? How is it? How about some water with that? Thank How's it going? Good.
Got to keep moving.
I really think their palates are adjusting to the taste of the Smoothaise.
- How's it going with you? - Uh, it's fine.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Sorry to interrupt all your chewing and talking but I just want to thank you all for coming to the Benefit for the Leroy Street shelter.
Our goal is to raise twice as much money as we did last year and thanks to your generous contributions we've done that.
Um.
So on behalf of the families at the shelter this really is a Thanksgiving.
Now, I'd personally appreciate it if youd all have a good time and enjoy the fine food.
Thank you.
Ben, I need you to go to the back and get some more of the dumplings.
- They're a big hit.
- OK.
- OK.
Thank you.
OK, and you need to keep moving, big boy, OK? Because the shrimp have to get to the people and not vice versa.
What are you doing back here? You want me to leave? Maggie, your husband is right outside.
What, do you think I'm gonna throw you right down to the ground here or something? Just wanted to say hi.
Hi.
Look, I'm supposed to be working.
I mean, I got to get back out there.
Well, I'm sure that it'll be OK if we just stay back here for a minute or two.
I hate to interrupt but I think you guys should probably get back out to the party.
Your husband's looking for you.
A little bit of vodka Oh, that's very nice.
And then put a little bit of sherry.
- You mix those together? - That's right.
And, of course, raspberry.
Oh, of course.
And it's just this wonderful Polish recipe.
Elena, Felicity, uh Hi.
Hey.
- Hello.
- What? Meghan! Oh.
I' m so glad you could come.
When I called for you yesterday and Meghan answered the phone I invited her to join us.
I guess I forgot to mention that.
Oh, this'll be great.
Annie is whipping up quite a punch back there.
It smells like pure alcohol.
Barbara, would you like some of this? Sure.
Mom's gonna get toasted.
This is gonna be great.
David called.
He's on his way, and he said not to worry.
From the moment I met you I knew you two would make a wonderful couple.
I was right.
Yeah.
I have to tell you, I haven't seen David this happy in such a long time.
Thank God you two found each other.
It's like he's come alive again.
I'm I'm glad.
Hey, uh, thanks for before.
Hey, no problem.
I always love helping out with illicit affairs.
So youre mad.
No, I'm not mad.
I just don't want to run interference for you anymore tonight.
I know, I know.
I'm sorry about that.
Is she really worth it? I don't know.
It doesn't feel right, not talking to David until tomorrow.
Have some of that It'll make you feel better.
Thank you.
Well, Felicity was telling me how much she loves your class.
- She's a wonderful student.
- Yeah? She's very committed to her drawing, as you probably know.
Yes, I do.
Oh.
Boy.
That looks good.
Her parents and his parents are actually getting along.
Isn't somebody gonna fight soon? Hey, whatever happened to that dinner you were supposed to do at the dorm? Oh, yeah.
I'm starving! - Hey.
- Hey.
Oh, I'm sorry I'm late.
I had a crisis with the pumpkin pie.
It's a long story.
Hey, David's here! - Hi.
Sweetie.
- Hello.
- Yeah.
Um, where should I put my coat? - Um, back here.
I'll show you.
Come in.
David.
Relax.
Your moms here.
OK.
Hi.
David.
I like David.
How are you? I'm good.
Fine.
I didn't mean to overwhelm you last night but I was telling the truth about how I feel.
Are you guys fighting in there? If you are, talk louder.
I guess we should go in there.
we can talk about it later.
OK.
You all right? Not really.
Look, if you want to talk sometime I mean, maybe we could go for, like, a coffee or something.
I mean, I know obviously not tonight, but Maggie, could you come here? Uh.
There's somebody I'd like you to meet.
Actually, I'd like you to meet someone, too.
This is Ben.
I thought you should meet the person I've been sleeping with.
Youre drunk, and this isn't the place for this.
What, youre the only person allowed to cheat, Charlie? So you weren't even surprised? Only that you didn't tell us.
I knew you were wavering a little bit last year and I hope you get past that but but seems like youre happy with your decision.
I am.
Can't say that I'm really thrilled about it but I'm glad that youre happy with your classes and with David.
I really do like him.
That's good.
And he and I were talking about the possibility of him coming out to Palo Alto for Christmas.
I'll be right back.
- Yeah.
- Annie, Annie.
- What's in the punch? - Noel, I'm not gonna answer that again.
- I already asked that? - Twice.
Oh.
I'm gonna go lay down for a second.
So what are you up to in Organic Chem? Um, right now we're studying stereoisomers and their subclasses.
Pretty tedious stuff.
I promise when youre in your residency the last thing youll have to worry about are stereoisomers.
Hi.
Sorry.
I didnt know you were in here.
No apologies necessary.
I was just getting that spinning-room sensation.
- I had to get out of there for a second.
- Yeah.
I'm feeling a little spinny myself.
What? Nothing.
I was just, uh, thinking about Thanksgiving last year.
Remember Javier and his turkey? Oh, and those exploding sweet potatoes.
God.
I cant believe that was a year ago.
Oh.
I know.
It feels like yesterday.
Really? Yeah.
I don't know.
For me, it seems like a million years ago.
I think I left my matches in my coat poc That was Professor Sherman.
- Mrs.
P.
- Thank you.
Actually.
I' m trying to stay away from carbohydrates.
Ooh.
The beans look good.
Everything looks so good.
Could I propose a toast? It is wonderful to bring two families together like this.
To have good friends here makes it even more special.
Thank you, Noel and Elena for hosting such a lovely dinner.
Thank you.
- That was very nice.
- Thank you.
- Could you pass the bread? - Sure.
- Thank you.
I'm really sorry.
I have no idea where that came from.
Me, too.
We should.
Uh We should talk - maybe when the punch wears off sometime in February.
- That'd be good.
Thank you.
Mmm, the turkey's delicious, Elena.
- Its really good.
- Thanks.
- Can I keep the bones? - Sure.
So, Annie, uh, I hope my daughter gets special treatment in class considering she's dating your son.
No special treatment.
But I' m working on it.
So.
Mom, you know if I can get that set up You know, it wasn't that bad a joke.
Can I talk to you a minute? - Uh-uh.
- Right now.
Look, David has already had his heart broken once this year.
I hope you have the decency to be honest with him and tell him about you and Noel.
You and Noel? We had a little too much punch, and it was just stupid.
We, uh, had this sort of this little kiss.
- You kissed Noel? - You kissed Noel again? - Again? - What? - What are you - What? I was just coming in to get my Lactaid out of my coat.
- Um, is everything all right? - Yeah.
Felicity and Noel were making out or something.
- Meghan! - Oh, wow.
Now.
That's really a misread of this situation.
- David, I'm sorry.
- Well.
You should be.
Annie, why dont you let them work it out? Mom, please.
It's not like Felicity and I are married.
It's very casual.
Its a terrible way to treat someone.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Don't talk to my daughter that way.
- Why not? It's my fault.
I'm the one who kissed her.
I had a little bit too much to drink.
And I just Youre supposed to be co-hosting David Can David and I just have a second alone? Just please.
- Of course.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- All right.
David, I'm sorry.
I I was gonna talk to you later, when we were alone.
Yeah, good timing all around.
I don't get it.
You said you were over Noel.
I am.
Look, this isn't about Noel.
It really isn't.
That's hard to believe right now.
David, it's true.
Last night, when you and I were talking It totally freaked you out when I said the word love.
I really like you.
The kiss of death.
No, stop it.
I just I guess I was being selfish because I assumed that you and I felt the same thing.
It's just that we said, you know no pressure, no expectations and I just broke up with Ben two months ago and I spent all last year following Ben or following Noel and no matter how much I like you I need to not be in a serious relationship right now.
I'm so sorry about everything.
You could have said something sooner so I didn't make a fool of myself.
I didn't know, and I'm so sorry.
- I hope you guys like this.
- This is great.
Yeah? No offense.
But this turkey tastes really weird.
Oh, that's because it's tofurkey.
- What? - Tofurkey.
Tofu turkey.
Well.
The guy promised me it tastes exactly the same but if you dont think so we can always slather it with Smoothaise.
No, no, no, no.
This is good.
This is good, right? Tofurkey is good as is.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
So, all in all, I thought tonight went really well, didn't you? Oh, yeah.
No, no, it was perfect.
A perfect evening.
You know what? Personally, I think you are better off without her because she's obviously crazy.
- Yeah.
- And I know youre not gonna believe this right now but it's good for everyone to get their heart broken at least once.
No, no.
My heart was not broken.
It was just, like, a fling, Sean.
No.
I know.
That's not what I meant.
I just meant that, um - You can probably learn something from this.
- Yeah.
To what, to never trust anybody again? How about this? Never work a party attended by your girlfriend and her husband.
Very good.
And this.
The next time an attractive blond ever wants to buy a lot of muffins from you, say no.
OK.
- Never date a caterer.
- Never date a caterer.
You guys are hysterical.
Youre a big help.
Well, we try.
Yeah, you do.
Thanks.
- What about a toast? - Toast.
To.
Uh.
Tofurkey.
- Tofurkey.
- Tofurkey.
Hmm.
The snow is nice, huh? Yeah.
OK, you guys can say something about what happened.
OK.
Gotta get the recipe for that punch.
God, it was such a disaster.
- I'm so embarrassed.
- Don't be.
Thanks for helping.
I wanted to hit your teacher.
Just didn't want to screw up your GPA.
It's true.
I practically had to hold her back.
I actually don't blame Professor Sherman.
I'm just not really looking forward to seeing her in class.
Do you guys want to meet for breakfast in the morning? That'd be great.
See you later.
So, uh, what's gonna happen with you and Noel? I don't know.
Feels so nice to be a part of your life again even if it's just for a moment.
* But any other way you choose * * Is a brick that weighs you down, so tell me * * What do I do with this backpack full of bricks? * * Sticks and stones and words that stuck to me like * * Ticks * * Let it go.
Let it be * * Brick by brick.
We can be free * * Of all the words we saved till we were * * Our own enemies * * Let it go.
Let it be * * Brick by brick.
We can believe * * In the person God intended us to be * * Let it be * * Oh.
Let it be *
I mean, what am I gonna do, break up a marriage? I just want to cut to the chase, if possible.
- What do you mean - I want to have an affair with you.
Before I met you.
I didntt even want to get involved with anyone and now I'm spending time with someone I really care about.
I don't know how this is gonna go between us but right now, we have a very good thing and I don't want to screw that up.
Neither do I.
- Hey! I thought you were at work.
- I blew it off.
Hi.
It's me.
I'm just leaving a message for my parents.
Come in.
Um, yeah, I was just checking on you.
Uh, call me back.
I love you.
Bye.
- I think they're mad at me.
- Why? What'd you do? Um, oh, I just, uh I told them I wasn't coming home for Thanksgiving that I had too much classwork, but I think that they think I don't really have that much classwork.
- Do you? - Not really.
So do you have plans? My only plan is to not go home.
'Cause if you want, we could hang out at my place get some frozen turkey dinners and have a non-crazy, pressure-free Thanksgiving.
Wait a second.
- What's going on? - Nothing.
Thanksgiving together is a great idea.
Oh, wait.
Oh, my God.
Meghan! - Oh, yeah.
So listen.
- We had a deal.
The Post-it on the door means do not come in.
- Yeah, but, listen, I have to - For once, you could respect my privacy.
God.
You finally get a little and now youre like some freaky sexaholic.
- Y- youre calling me a freak? - OK.
No need to get into For your information, nympho I barged in here as a favor.
- A favor? - I was going to let you know what I just saw down in the lobby, but since youre being such a bitch I'll let you find out for yourself.
What are you talking about? Come in! Mom! Dad! Dear Sally OK, so this is going to sound terrible but my parents came to visit, and I want them to go home.
I mean, of course I love them.
You know that, but I cut my hair, and I dropped Premed and I'm sleeping with a photographer.
I mean, there are these things about my life that they just know nothing about and I'm not really in the mood to share it with them.
So we wanted to surprise you.
Well, hey, it worked.
Your dad and I thought that if you werent going to come home for Thanksgiving we'd come here and have it with you.
So we got in late last night.
We got a suite at the Regency and we thought while you were studying we could shop.
See some shows.
And Hi.
I'm sorry.
Mom, Dad, this is David.
Nice meeting you.
Good to meet you.
I've heard a lot about you.
- Youre a student here? - A grad student.
Photography.
I'm sorry.
You can talk.
Grad student, Photography.
And you know Meghan, right? - Oh, yeah.
Hi.
- Hi.
Good to see you again, Meghan.
How are you holding up as an R.
A.
? Well.
The hardest part is making sure youre really helping the kids.
Oh.
Speaking of which.
I got to go.
I'm starting a recycling campaign.
So, honey, you pick the restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner and, in the meantime, your mother and I will get lost so that you can do all that studying that you said you had to do.
Actually, David and I were going to - We sort of - Had plans.
Um, yeah.
Only sort of, but, um Well.
Why dont you come along? No! I mean, no, right? You don't want to If I'm not intruding.
Of course not.
We are the ones who barged in here.
So, it's a plan.
OK.
Uh.
Benjamin um, how would you like to make a lot of money? Well, relatively speaking for you, of course.
- What, you want to give me a raise? - No, I'm not stupid.
This is for Thanksgiving.
- Youre not going away for the holiday? - Please say no.
- I need to hear no from you now.
- No.
No, I'm not.
OK, good.
So I will be thanking yor for giving me Thanksgiving a little bit of your time for this charity event here tomorrow.
Javier, I don't know.
I was just kind of hoping to kick back.
Kick back? Whatever happened to the little thing called work ethic around here? Javier, it's Thanksgiving.
It's a national holiday in this country.
Oh, really? Thank you very much.
I'll mark that in my calendar.
I'm desperate.
I can't find nobody to work.
OK.
I'll give you and any friend you can find to help Here you go.
- Double what you get now.
- Youre going to pay me double? In cash, over the table.
It's under the table.
- OK, that, too.
- All right, I'll do it, and I'll ask my roommates because they're staying in town, too.
Do you know why I like you? - No, why? - No, I'm asking.
Hi.
How you doing? You still havent told them yet? The Premed thing is not an easy subject with my dad.
- He'll freak, won't he? - Yeah.
I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't even tell them at all.
OK.
No.
No.
I'll talk to you later.
So Ruby can't make it back for Thanksgiving.
They extended her schedule in the movie.
Apparently the lead actress fell off a horse and pulled her patella.
Her patella? You can't pull a patella.
A patella's a bone.
What? Great.
So it's just the two of us for Thanksgiving unless Why don't you and your parents come over here? I'm making tons of food.
It'll be fun.
- Really? - Yeah, yeah.
Bring them over.
Um, David was going to come with us, so You guys are going to have your dinner with the parents.
That's You guys are getting pretty serious.
No.
I mean, not serious serious.
Well, if they all come over here it'll be like a party and less holiday pressure.
- Then I won't have to deal with just Noel.
- Thanks.
All right.
We'll ask them.
I got to go meet them for lunch now, anyway.
It'll be fun.
Yeah.
Thanks a lot, you guys.
Bye.
See ya.
- Patella's a bone? - Yeah, it's your kneecap.
- Because I'm going to call her.
- Call her.
- All right.
I think.
Hey.
Hey, maybe after this thing tomorrow we can do our own dinner at the loft.
- Oh, yeah, like a real Thanksgiving? - Yeah, as long as I don't have to cook.
No, no, I'll cook.
- Did you guys know you can deep-fry a turkey? What? Yeah, it's really dangerous.
Oh, thanks God you are here.
OK.
I just had two servers back down on me so thank you.
Usually when I seal up a deal I do it on a handshake, you know but the last time I did that all the waiters went home with the silverware a little gift with purchase so please, sign the bottom, please.
OK, I'm going to need an exclusivity clause, though stating that you agree to put Smoothaise on every serving platter, and then we're all set.
- Smooth who? - Smoothaise.
It's a new condiment Sean made up.
- It's not so bad.
- Not so bad? Hello.
Hey.
Javier, I'd like to go over the final plans for tomorrow.
Absolutely.
I was just getting the waiters together.
These are them.
Heh.
OK.
Come with me.
Great.
- Oh, this is her party? - I had no idea, believe me.
Why? Who's that? Her.
- Oh, that's her.
- Yes.
Shh.
So this is your college hang-out, huh? It's sort of a bar.
It's It's more like a cafe.
I mean, they have food here, so - Is your sandwich OK? - It's OK.
I'd call it sort of a pub.
So your hair is really It's a different look for you.
- I mean, I like it.
- I like it, too.
Thanks.
Hey, so David seems like a pretty nice guy.
How old is he? That's quite a bit older than you.
So how long have you two been seeing each other? Um, about a month now.
- Oh.
- What? Oh, nothing.
It's just you hadn't mentioned him, and then you said the two of you had made Thanksgiving plans so it seems youre moving pretty fast.
Are you keeping up with your studies? How's Biochem? Now, that's a hard course, right? Is it going OK? I dropped Premed.
What? When did this happen? My schedule was so full that I didn't have time to take anything else and I really wanted to take art courses which I'm loving right now and the truth is, I just I wasn't willing to give everything else up in order to pursue something I wasn't even sure about.
What's going on with you? Youve given up medicine, youre dating an older man Dad, he's not that much older.
You cut your hair and you don't even tell us about it? There are a lot of things about me you guys don't know.
Like what, sweetie? Nothing.
Like nothing.
Just forget it.
Where are you going? It's just a little overwhelming sitting here and being judged about my life.
I mean, this pub and my major and my hair and my relationship with David and I have to go to work anyway, so I'll just I'll give you guys a call at the hotel later.
So just write down the stuff you want, and I'll order it.
And get the stuffing without raisins.
I hate raisins.
I care.
Hey, Felicity.
Youre actually making dinner at the dorm? No.
I told some of these losers that were stuck here over the break that I would order something.
They said it counts towards my community service hours.
I don't want to talk about it.
Anyway, your boyfriend is in there again which is annoying.
Hey.
I was just leaving you a note.
What's wrong? I just experienced a time warp right back to high school.
Ah, lunch with your parents? Yeah.
- I thought you had prints to make.
- I did.
I do, but I was thinking about you.
I wanted to stop by, so I did.
Hmm.
That's sweet of you.
Um, I actually have to get to work, though.
OK.
Oh, and, hey, if it's all right we're going to have Thanksgiving at Noel and Elena's just to make things more confusing.
Ah.
Well.
Speaking of making things more confusing my mother, who usually travels over Thanksgiving has decided not to this year.
She'd love to meet your parents.
What? Youre right.
I'm telling her no.
Um, but, I mean, no.
She can't spend Thanksgiving alone.
- Have her come.
- Yeah? Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Why are you throwing a party where I work? - And hello to you, too.
- You have to move it somewhere else.
- You have to.
- Ben, I can't.
All the arrangements have been made and it was my husband's idea to have it at Dean & Deluca.
He had it there last year.
It just didn't mean anything to you then.
You know, I met him.
Yeah, I met your husband.
He ordered a cake for your anniversary and he told me how much you love butterflies and how youve been together for 3 years.
Maggie, he seems like a pretty nice guy.
Is that why you haven't called? I can't do this anymore.
Ben, I am so sorry.
I didn't mean for that to happen.
I never meant to lie to you.
It's just, my relationship with my husband is complicated.
Maggie, this party, it's going to be I know.
It's going to be weird but it would mean a lot to me just just for you to be there.
I mean, I miss you.
I do.
Mom! No! Youre Felicity's mother? - Yes.
- Ohh! Ohh! Oh, my God, at last we meet! Your daughter's an angel.
You have no idea how much I love her.
- I'm Javier, the manager.
- I figured.
OK.
This is so emotional for me.
OK.
If you need anything, anything let me know.
OK? It's on the house.
- Thanks, I will.
- OK.
Sorry about that.
Do you have a second? Yeah.
Of course.
Just, um sit down.
Let me clean this up.
David seems like a sweet guy.
I shouldn't have implied that you two were moving too fast.
I just You were right.
It's not my place to say.
Thank you.
I do want to get to know him better.
I'm really looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with him.
I got something for him.
I saw this at the gift shop at the Met.
You said he studies photography.
It's a collection of photographs from the 1940s.
Mom, you didn't have to do that.
I know.
But I'm I'm sure he'll love it.
So is Dad furious about the Premed thing? You should talk to him.
Professor Sherman coming here? Yeah.
I' m sorry I didnt mention it earlier.
I've just been a little distracted.
- Did you write down cranberry sauce? - Yeah, it's there.
- No, Professor Sherman cannot come here.
- What's your problem? Teachers should stay in school.
They should not come to my house.
Besides, you dont even know her.
She is this incredibly intimidating just force of nature! And youre supposed to give her a call and let her know what she can bring.
What? No, I'm not I'm not calling her.
I haven't even gotten my midterm project back yet.
I could've failed.
Youre not bailing out on me.
Youre the co-host.
Now, will you just go pick the stuff up? Of course I'll go pick it up.
I'm the co-host.
So how's David? He's good.
Good.
He did this really sweet thing today.
He stopped by twice out of the blue once in the morning and once in the afternoon and then he walked me to work.
So, what's the problem? - Do you think he's getting more serious than you are? - No.
Um I dont know.
Just today, it felt like I know that's really presumptuous of me.
I'm I'm sure I'm overreacting.
So how's he taking this whole parent Thanksgiving thing? He seems OK with it.
Well, just so you know, the normal reaction would be for him to be freaked out like you are.
My mom actually bought him a gift today.
Oh, well, if that doesn't freak him out, youre in real trouble.
- You think? - Oh, yeah.
A gift from your parents? That's like saying welcome to the family.
See how he takes the gift.
It's a good way to make sure youre on the same page.
Yeah.
I hope we are.
I mean, I really like him, but we're just starting out.
I mean, it's not that serious.
And this is where we set up the bar and everything like that, tequila, champagne and this is the blue water.
It's not really blue.
It's just the bottle.
- OK.
- Let me show you the desserts.
This is crazy.
How much food's gonna be left over by the time this guy Oh.
I know.
Well.
Why dont we sneak Guys, I know what youre talking about.
I just want you to know everything is going to be fine, all right? Actually, we were just wondering if we could take home any leftover food.
But we're glad everything's going to be fine.
Yeah.
That that's her husband.
- Really? - Her husband? She's married? Could you guys please, could you keep it down? Please? - Wow.
- I didn't know.
Yeah, I know.
I wasn't exactly advertising it.
Hi.
I' m Charlie Sherwood.
You guys are the wait staff for tomorrow evening, right? - Yeah.
- Hi.
There's going to be a lot of stuffy rich people here tomorrow evening so I apologize in advance for their behavior.
My wife's a caterer.
I don't know how she deals with these people.
- Great.
- I'm sure you guys know what youre doing.
Hey, youre the kid who sold me the cake last week, right? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Thanks again.
My wife loved it.
It was fantastic.
Thanks.
- Good.
Good.
- Yeah.
All right.
I'm ready for the pumpkin.
OK.
Thanks.
You know, I should warn you my parents are a little too excited about getting to know you.
I don't mind.
I really like them.
Really? Proof.
This is from my mom to you.
A gift? I know.
It's so crazy, but I got them something, too.
It's this book on New York, places to see.
Things to do for whenever they're visiting.
Wow.
That's so sweet of you.
David, you don't have to do this I mean, be so nice about my parents.
I won't be upset, like, at all if they drive you crazy and you just don't want to admit it.
You can tell me.
How could I not like your parents? They're part of you, the person I'm falling in love with.
Love? I mean, he said the word love? Wow! What'd you say? Nothing.
I mean, I I was just in shock.
Love.
I mean, I thought things were going so well.
We have a great time just hanging out.
I really like him, and I really like spending time with him.
Look at you, our little Felicity.
Oh, God.
All those people are going to be at my apartment any minute.
I told Noel that we needed more salad stuff but he never listens.
The thing is, I'm not in love with David and I thought the two of us felt the same way about that.
I thought things were just kind of casual.
He's the sweetest guy, and I've completely misled him.
- I'm a horrible, callous person! - That's a little extreme.
I mean, you didn't know how strongly he felt until last night, and he is moving a little quickly.
Oh, my God! I'm the Ben of this situation.
David has all these strong feelings, and I led him on.
- Come on.
Youre not Ben.
- I am.
I'm Ben.
That's a completely different thing.
Can you grab a couple of tomatoes? What am I gonna do? Eventually, talk to him but right now, help me get the rest of this stuff so we can feed those people.
Youre right.
I have to talk to him but I have got to talk to him right away.
Listen, you cannot talk to David tonight not during Thanksgiving at my apartment where I am hosting you, David, your parents, and his mother.
Promise me you won't do it tonight.
- Professor Sherman, hi.
- Hi.
Can I come in? I'm carrying 5 heavy bottles in these bags and I need to use the loo.
The loo as in the bathroom.
Yeah, of course.
Um, come in.
It's right over there.
Here.
Oh, thanks.
So, how are those midterm projects coming? Fine.
Thanks.
- Good.
Mr.
And Mrs.
Porter, hi.
- Hello, Noel.
- How are you? It's good to see you.
Um, you know what? You can put your jackets in the back room back there.
- Good to see you.
- How've you been? Good.
Felicity and Elena will be here any minute, OK? Hold on.
What about that sauce, huh? How is it? How about some water with that? Thank How's it going? Good.
Got to keep moving.
I really think their palates are adjusting to the taste of the Smoothaise.
- How's it going with you? - Uh, it's fine.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Sorry to interrupt all your chewing and talking but I just want to thank you all for coming to the Benefit for the Leroy Street shelter.
Our goal is to raise twice as much money as we did last year and thanks to your generous contributions we've done that.
Um.
So on behalf of the families at the shelter this really is a Thanksgiving.
Now, I'd personally appreciate it if youd all have a good time and enjoy the fine food.
Thank you.
Ben, I need you to go to the back and get some more of the dumplings.
- They're a big hit.
- OK.
- OK.
Thank you.
OK, and you need to keep moving, big boy, OK? Because the shrimp have to get to the people and not vice versa.
What are you doing back here? You want me to leave? Maggie, your husband is right outside.
What, do you think I'm gonna throw you right down to the ground here or something? Just wanted to say hi.
Hi.
Look, I'm supposed to be working.
I mean, I got to get back out there.
Well, I'm sure that it'll be OK if we just stay back here for a minute or two.
I hate to interrupt but I think you guys should probably get back out to the party.
Your husband's looking for you.
A little bit of vodka Oh, that's very nice.
And then put a little bit of sherry.
- You mix those together? - That's right.
And, of course, raspberry.
Oh, of course.
And it's just this wonderful Polish recipe.
Elena, Felicity, uh Hi.
Hey.
- Hello.
- What? Meghan! Oh.
I' m so glad you could come.
When I called for you yesterday and Meghan answered the phone I invited her to join us.
I guess I forgot to mention that.
Oh, this'll be great.
Annie is whipping up quite a punch back there.
It smells like pure alcohol.
Barbara, would you like some of this? Sure.
Mom's gonna get toasted.
This is gonna be great.
David called.
He's on his way, and he said not to worry.
From the moment I met you I knew you two would make a wonderful couple.
I was right.
Yeah.
I have to tell you, I haven't seen David this happy in such a long time.
Thank God you two found each other.
It's like he's come alive again.
I'm I'm glad.
Hey, uh, thanks for before.
Hey, no problem.
I always love helping out with illicit affairs.
So youre mad.
No, I'm not mad.
I just don't want to run interference for you anymore tonight.
I know, I know.
I'm sorry about that.
Is she really worth it? I don't know.
It doesn't feel right, not talking to David until tomorrow.
Have some of that It'll make you feel better.
Thank you.
Well, Felicity was telling me how much she loves your class.
- She's a wonderful student.
- Yeah? She's very committed to her drawing, as you probably know.
Yes, I do.
Oh.
Boy.
That looks good.
Her parents and his parents are actually getting along.
Isn't somebody gonna fight soon? Hey, whatever happened to that dinner you were supposed to do at the dorm? Oh, yeah.
I'm starving! - Hey.
- Hey.
Oh, I'm sorry I'm late.
I had a crisis with the pumpkin pie.
It's a long story.
Hey, David's here! - Hi.
Sweetie.
- Hello.
- Yeah.
Um, where should I put my coat? - Um, back here.
I'll show you.
Come in.
David.
Relax.
Your moms here.
OK.
Hi.
David.
I like David.
How are you? I'm good.
Fine.
I didn't mean to overwhelm you last night but I was telling the truth about how I feel.
Are you guys fighting in there? If you are, talk louder.
I guess we should go in there.
we can talk about it later.
OK.
You all right? Not really.
Look, if you want to talk sometime I mean, maybe we could go for, like, a coffee or something.
I mean, I know obviously not tonight, but Maggie, could you come here? Uh.
There's somebody I'd like you to meet.
Actually, I'd like you to meet someone, too.
This is Ben.
I thought you should meet the person I've been sleeping with.
Youre drunk, and this isn't the place for this.
What, youre the only person allowed to cheat, Charlie? So you weren't even surprised? Only that you didn't tell us.
I knew you were wavering a little bit last year and I hope you get past that but but seems like youre happy with your decision.
I am.
Can't say that I'm really thrilled about it but I'm glad that youre happy with your classes and with David.
I really do like him.
That's good.
And he and I were talking about the possibility of him coming out to Palo Alto for Christmas.
I'll be right back.
- Yeah.
- Annie, Annie.
- What's in the punch? - Noel, I'm not gonna answer that again.
- I already asked that? - Twice.
Oh.
I'm gonna go lay down for a second.
So what are you up to in Organic Chem? Um, right now we're studying stereoisomers and their subclasses.
Pretty tedious stuff.
I promise when youre in your residency the last thing youll have to worry about are stereoisomers.
Hi.
Sorry.
I didnt know you were in here.
No apologies necessary.
I was just getting that spinning-room sensation.
- I had to get out of there for a second.
- Yeah.
I'm feeling a little spinny myself.
What? Nothing.
I was just, uh, thinking about Thanksgiving last year.
Remember Javier and his turkey? Oh, and those exploding sweet potatoes.
God.
I cant believe that was a year ago.
Oh.
I know.
It feels like yesterday.
Really? Yeah.
I don't know.
For me, it seems like a million years ago.
I think I left my matches in my coat poc That was Professor Sherman.
- Mrs.
P.
- Thank you.
Actually.
I' m trying to stay away from carbohydrates.
Ooh.
The beans look good.
Everything looks so good.
Could I propose a toast? It is wonderful to bring two families together like this.
To have good friends here makes it even more special.
Thank you, Noel and Elena for hosting such a lovely dinner.
Thank you.
- That was very nice.
- Thank you.
- Could you pass the bread? - Sure.
- Thank you.
I'm really sorry.
I have no idea where that came from.
Me, too.
We should.
Uh We should talk - maybe when the punch wears off sometime in February.
- That'd be good.
Thank you.
Mmm, the turkey's delicious, Elena.
- Its really good.
- Thanks.
- Can I keep the bones? - Sure.
So, Annie, uh, I hope my daughter gets special treatment in class considering she's dating your son.
No special treatment.
But I' m working on it.
So.
Mom, you know if I can get that set up You know, it wasn't that bad a joke.
Can I talk to you a minute? - Uh-uh.
- Right now.
Look, David has already had his heart broken once this year.
I hope you have the decency to be honest with him and tell him about you and Noel.
You and Noel? We had a little too much punch, and it was just stupid.
We, uh, had this sort of this little kiss.
- You kissed Noel? - You kissed Noel again? - Again? - What? - What are you - What? I was just coming in to get my Lactaid out of my coat.
- Um, is everything all right? - Yeah.
Felicity and Noel were making out or something.
- Meghan! - Oh, wow.
Now.
That's really a misread of this situation.
- David, I'm sorry.
- Well.
You should be.
Annie, why dont you let them work it out? Mom, please.
It's not like Felicity and I are married.
It's very casual.
Its a terrible way to treat someone.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Don't talk to my daughter that way.
- Why not? It's my fault.
I'm the one who kissed her.
I had a little bit too much to drink.
And I just Youre supposed to be co-hosting David Can David and I just have a second alone? Just please.
- Of course.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- All right.
David, I'm sorry.
I I was gonna talk to you later, when we were alone.
Yeah, good timing all around.
I don't get it.
You said you were over Noel.
I am.
Look, this isn't about Noel.
It really isn't.
That's hard to believe right now.
David, it's true.
Last night, when you and I were talking It totally freaked you out when I said the word love.
I really like you.
The kiss of death.
No, stop it.
I just I guess I was being selfish because I assumed that you and I felt the same thing.
It's just that we said, you know no pressure, no expectations and I just broke up with Ben two months ago and I spent all last year following Ben or following Noel and no matter how much I like you I need to not be in a serious relationship right now.
I'm so sorry about everything.
You could have said something sooner so I didn't make a fool of myself.
I didn't know, and I'm so sorry.
- I hope you guys like this.
- This is great.
Yeah? No offense.
But this turkey tastes really weird.
Oh, that's because it's tofurkey.
- What? - Tofurkey.
Tofu turkey.
Well.
The guy promised me it tastes exactly the same but if you dont think so we can always slather it with Smoothaise.
No, no, no, no.
This is good.
This is good, right? Tofurkey is good as is.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
So, all in all, I thought tonight went really well, didn't you? Oh, yeah.
No, no, it was perfect.
A perfect evening.
You know what? Personally, I think you are better off without her because she's obviously crazy.
- Yeah.
- And I know youre not gonna believe this right now but it's good for everyone to get their heart broken at least once.
No, no.
My heart was not broken.
It was just, like, a fling, Sean.
No.
I know.
That's not what I meant.
I just meant that, um - You can probably learn something from this.
- Yeah.
To what, to never trust anybody again? How about this? Never work a party attended by your girlfriend and her husband.
Very good.
And this.
The next time an attractive blond ever wants to buy a lot of muffins from you, say no.
OK.
- Never date a caterer.
- Never date a caterer.
You guys are hysterical.
Youre a big help.
Well, we try.
Yeah, you do.
Thanks.
- What about a toast? - Toast.
To.
Uh.
Tofurkey.
- Tofurkey.
- Tofurkey.
Hmm.
The snow is nice, huh? Yeah.
OK, you guys can say something about what happened.
OK.
Gotta get the recipe for that punch.
God, it was such a disaster.
- I'm so embarrassed.
- Don't be.
Thanks for helping.
I wanted to hit your teacher.
Just didn't want to screw up your GPA.
It's true.
I practically had to hold her back.
I actually don't blame Professor Sherman.
I'm just not really looking forward to seeing her in class.
Do you guys want to meet for breakfast in the morning? That'd be great.
See you later.
So, uh, what's gonna happen with you and Noel? I don't know.
Feels so nice to be a part of your life again even if it's just for a moment.
