Party of Five s02e15 Episode Script

BAILEY: Mr.
Rosenthal, you wanted to see me? Yeah.
Come on in, Bailey.
Is there something wrong? If I could just find this file.
Is this about Hampshire State? About my acceptance? Yeah.
And I have to tell you-- Oh, God.
Did they change their minds? Did they find out about the C-minus in Physics? Because I can explain that.
No.
It's not about your Physics grade.
The C in Creative Writing because I got really hung up on haikus.
-No, no.
Just listen.
-It was the B-minus-- Bailey! A man named Garrett Williams came by to see me last week.
He wants to set up funds for grant seniors.
To make a long story short, he looked through the files of all our seniors already accepted into college, and he picked you.
Picked me for what? A college scholarship.
Ten thousand dollars a year.
For all four years.
Oh, my God.
That means That means that That I can go to college.
That I can actually pay for it.
Congratulations, Bailey.
You are our first ever Garrett Williams scholar.
Wow.
I, uh I never really thought of myself as a scholar.
Frankly, Bailey, neither did I.
[THE BODEANS' "CLOSER TO FREE" PLAYING.]
Everybody wants to live Like they wanna live And everybody wants to love Like they wanna love Everybody wants to be Closer to free-ee-ee Closer to free [BELL RINGS.]
SARAH: Who is this guy? Where'd he come from? I have no idea.
Mr.
Rosenthal might have said something about it, but I didn't hear a word he said after "$40,000.
" But I'm gonna meet him tonight.
He wants to take me to dinner.
God.
That is so cool.
Dinner with your benefactor.
I bet he takes you someplace great.
Oh, God.
You think? I don't do the fancy dining thing very well.
What if I screw it up? What if I dump a bowl of soup on my lap or something, and he wants to take his money back? He's not gonna do that.
He's gonna love you, and he'll wanna give you $40,000 right away.
Wow.
That's a lot of money.
UC schools only cost, like, $2000 a year.
Yeah.
So that leaves $8000 just to live on.
Uhyeah.
This is me.
I gotta go.
If I don't see you before dinner, it's big fork, main course, little fork, salad.
And don't tuck your napkin underneath your chin, okay? This is gonna change everything for you, you know that? Bye.
This whole breakfast-date idea is pretty foreign to me.
I'm not exactly at my best in the morning.
That's the point.
Everybody's nice at 8 p.
m.
You only find out what someone's really like at breakfast-time.
If I had had the sense to have a breakfast date with Wayne, we'd never have gotten as far as we did.
But this isn't, like, the new thing with you? I mean, we can still have dinners, right? Right.
Of course.
Truth is, I wanted to see you tonight, but I have my women's group, so I figured I could come by after.
It's gonna go late.
I can come by late.
I'll be in bed.
I could come by while you're in bed.
Probably better not.
Look, Charlie, ninety percent of the pain I've experienced as an adult has been the direct result of rushing things.
I really can't handle making any more mistakes.
You don't know this would be a mistake.
And you don't know it wouldn't.
JULIA: Damn it! Damn it, damn it, damn it.
Having fun over there? I promise you, at no point in my life will I need to know how to program a computer.
It's really not that hard, Julia.
Well, it is for me.
I don't get it.
And if I don't start getting it soon, I'm gonna fail.
I mean, fail as in F.
Why don't you let me help you.
No.
I don't think that's a good idea.
It might mess things up.
How's it gonna mess things up? What if you start lording it over me? What? You could give in to that little, tiny part of you that just loves being better at this than I am.
Are you serious? You really think I'm that competitive? I'm not saying it's a character flaw.
I'm just saying-- I can't believe you.
I would never do that.
You see what I mean? You're not even helping me yet, and already we're fighting.
Alright, fine.
What do you wanna do? Fail? No.
No.
No.
I'm gonna find a tutor.
Someone who's not you.
Someone who I don't care about [SLURPING.]
Did I hear you say you need a tutor? So how are things going with Ms.
Schrader? Fine.
Hand me those, will you? Thanks.
What's with the sudden interest? I'm just a little curious.
There's this TLC rockumentary on MTV today.
I kind of wanna watch it.
Only I have this math homework.
You're not using my relationship with Emily to get out of doing your homework.
What's the point of you dating my teacher if I can't get something out of it? End of conversation.
Hand me that menu.
Wow.
French? Must be a pretty special party you're catering.
Yeah.
Big TV producer's birthday party.
Some big shot.
Way too busy to come to the phone, so I've had to organize the entire thing over a series of phone calls with her assistant Rosemary.
Wow.
I bet dealing with people like that just makes you never wanna be like that yourself.
I bet it just makes you wanna help people, like, say, your Your siblings.
Claudia, one more try and I'll tell her to go harder on you.
Man.
Whose side are you on? Miller.
Hi.
Uh, my pen exploded.
Oh.
Ha-ha.
Okay, so here's my problem.
I can't get my head around this computer-programming stuff.
That's a nice blouse.
Oh, thanks.
Anyways, here's the program as I've written it.
It's supposed to alphabetize a mailing list.
You were wearing it in the yearbook picture last year.
Was I? Yeah.
Not in, you know, your individual one, but in one of the candids.
Oh.
Anyways, I don't know what I did wrong, but it doesn't run.
It was the one, remember, on page 84.
You almost couldn't tell it was you because Alice North with her big, old hair is standing right in front of you.
There's a much better one on 123.
Oh.
Okay, let's, uh, log you on and pull this program up.
Uh, I need your password.
Oh, it's my initials.
J-- Oh, JGS.
You know my middle initial? Gfor Gordon.
I don't know if you ever noticed, but those three letters together kind of spell out "jugs.
" [LAUGHS WRYLY.]
So that's when I realized I wasn't cut out for working for other people.
So I took the bull by the horns, and I started my own company.
You may have seen our product around.
Those little statues that say "World's Greatest Dad," or "I Love You This Much.
" You make those? Those are everywhere.
I don't make them anymore.
A couple of years ago, one of the big guns in the business came and bought me out.
Now I get to do things, like hunting people down who could use a little help, like you, Bailey.
Yeah.
Um Now, I hope I'm not opening up a can of worms here or anything, but, um why me? I mean, I'm not exactly scholarship material.
Mr.
Rosenthal told me what happened to your folks.
Do you mind talking about them? No.
No, not at all.
It's weird, usually people assume that I don't want to, but, actually, I kind of like thinking about them.
Were they warm people? Friendly? Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
They were always hugging us and And telling us to bring our friends over for dinner.
Or, at least, Dad was.
Everybody pretty much loved him.
What about your mother? Well people sort of had to prove themselves to her.
You know, she was She had a few more opinions.
What do you think her opinion would have been of me? Well, she would probably be very grateful to you for helping me out.
Oh, yeah, sure, but aside from that.
I mean, as a person.
Oh.
Um Well, I'm really not sure.
Uh She was someone that you kind of had to win over, you know? Maybe if you gave her one of those "World's Greatest Mom" statues.
Well, I'm sure they'd be very proud of you for getting yourself admitted to Hampshire.
I assume that you chose it because of that music program.
Uh, no.
No, not me.
Tin ear.
Really? Well, that surprises me, considering your mother's talent.
How'd you know about that? It was in your transcript.
It was? That's weird.
Well, I see a waiter bearing down on us, so we'd better-- Have you any idea what you'd like? Thanks again, man.
Hey.
Hey.
Nice party.
Mm.
I don't know.
I don't really like parties.
Looked like you were having fun.
Yeah? Well, smoke and mirrors.
Well, at least you got a lot of presents.
I did, didn't I? Why don't you open one up for me.
Me? Yeah.
We'll have a little mini birthday party, just the two of us.
[GIGGLES NERVOUSLY.]
"Happy birthday, from Rita.
" Afternoon anchor.
Cute, but dim.
Oh just what I needed: another sterling key ring.
You want it? No.
Why should I have your present? Because you're a sweetheart.
You don't know that.
Yes, I do.
I didn't order a cake, and you brought one, anyway.
Well every birthday girl should have a cake.
Yeah, well, um I'm billing you by the hour, so I should probably clock out.
Here's an idea.
Why don't you clock out but not leave.
Oh.
Um Wow.
I promise it'll be fun.
Uh Oh, yeah.
No doubt about that.
But, um, I'm, uh I'm-- Um, I'm I Well, that's a first.
I'm usually very hard to say no to.
Hmm.
[SIGHS.]
[HUMMING.]
Hey.
Hey.
Courier brought that by for you this morning.
What? It's got a note on it.
Kathleen, huh? Yeah.
She's, uh I did this job for her last night.
This catering job.
Of course.
What else? It's Armani.
You could sell it and buy a car.
What's she thinking? She's thinking you'll go to the reception tonight and wear this.
Invitation in the pocket.
Not worth going into the whole respect-for-my-privacy thing, huh? Save your breath.
I'm sure she meant it as, like, a tip.
Sure.
Some people give 15 percent.
Other people give evening wear.
Hey, it's not like that.
Oh.
Yeah, hi.
Rosemary? It's Charlie Sa-- Yes, I did and-- No, no, no.
Don't send over a tailor.
I'm calling to tell you that I can't go tonight.
Yes, I know how she gets.
I mean, I can imagine, but, um, I'm busy.
No, I can't.
Okay.
Right.
Bye.
Way to go, man.
Hold out for jewelry.
SARAH: Did you guys come here a lot? Hardly ever, really.
But last night, when we were at dinner, I realized that it's almost been two years.
And, I don't know, it just kind of made me wanna come.
It's weird.
We spent a lot of time talking about them.
I mean, he was asking about them.
Well, a little curiosity's normal.
I mean, it is a pretty weird situation.
Yeah, but this wasn't, like, usual, you know, people being fascinated by how we get the bills paid or who potty-trains Owen.
This was This was different.
He wanted to know about them.
Specifically.
Like, he asked if they were happily married.
Hmm.
That's a little weird.
That's what I'm saying.
This is it.
This is theirs.
It's nice here, Bailey.
Yeah.
I wanted you to come.
Thanks.
SARAH: Wow.
Those are pretty.
[SQUEALS.]
Ahh.
Oh.
Nothing like a good hard jog to make a girl feel pretty.
How's this hair? Is this working for you? I think you look great.
Oh, yeah, sure.
I mean it.
You look veryathletic.
We could take a cab back to your place.
No, thanks.
You sure? Am I sure? Yes, I'm sure.
I told you I was sure yesterday.
Yeah, but-- But what? You know, we have talked about this.
I've told you how I feel a few times.
But you keep pounding away at this-- I'm not pounding.
I'm justasking.
Why? Why do you feel this need to push things? Do you have a problem with the way things are here? No, I just It just seems a little arbitrary.
Waiting.
Actually, what's arbitrary is you saying that something needs to happen now, when all along I have said that I wanted to give this time.
Why is that so hard for you to understand? Little yellow ones-- Um, roses, I think.
You went.
I hate it when you go without asking me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
So it wasn't you? How could it have been? No one told me they were going.
JULIA: Nope.
Think harder.
Maybe you did, and you just forgot.
Bailey, I think I'd remember leaving flowers for Mom.
Hey, Char.
You wanna knock? Were those your flowers at the cemetery? No.
Yellow ones under Mom's name? I said no.
I wonder-- Well, wonder elsewhere.
Okay, wait, so the glitch has to be somewhere in here, right? Yes, that's right.
This would have been easier to do at the computer center.
It's all the same if you have a printout.
Yeah, I guess.
Okay.
So Oh.
The problem has to be here with the "go to" command.
Yes, that is right.
Andwhy? Why? Um Hmm.
Oh! Obviously because there's nothing for it to go to.
Congratulations.
You got it.
Miller, what are you-- Uh, just-- Ahem.
Stay here.
What is going on? What is this? You told them we'd be here, didn't you? Who? Me? Miller, what is your problem? I just Look, um I have a boyfriend.
We've been going out for a long time.
And since you obviously-- Clearly, there's an ulterior motive here, so So I just don't think-- I mean, I really think I should find a different tutor.
Charlie, I'll have to can Rosemary.
She said you were busy.
I was.
But? Like you said, you're hard to say no to.
Drink with me.
I haven't been able to rustle up a decent conversation all night.
Some of the 49ers are here, as you can see.
Very exciting.
The mayor, naturally.
Yutz.
And a cluster of folks who work for me.
Smile.
Ohway too bright.
Much better.
Come here.
[VASE SHATTERS.]
Whoa Sorry.
Forget about it.
You should never have anything you can't afford to lose.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
Yeah.
I'm coming.
Well, hi, Bailey.
Hi.
It's kind of late, but come on in.
I've, uh I've been thinking.
I know this might sound really weird, but But it's the only thing that I could figure, because this whole thing has seemed really strange to me.
The scholarship, and dinner and then today, I figured something out.
I figured out that That your name isn't Mr.
Williams.
Hmm.
It's Jacob Gordon, isn't it? You're my mom's dad, aren't you? You're my grandfather.
So why did you lie? It was probably guilt.
You probably felt really bad about how things went with Mom, about walking out on her when she was so little, and you thought that I'd be as mad at you as she was.
I didn't expect I'd have to go into any of this.
Or maybe you wanted to make a good first impression.
You know, make me think that you were a great guy before telling me that we're related.
Was that it? Or were you ever gonna tell me? I thought about it, and I thought you'd be better off not knowing.
Better off? Hey.
I have no parents.
Okay? So no, I wouldn't have been better off.
I guess this explains why you haven't come back before now.
You just thought we'd all be better off.
I came here looking for my daughter Diana, your mother.
I went over to the city hall.
I asked them to look her up.
I expected to get a new address or a new place of business, and the woman there came back and said, "The person you're looking for is deceased.
" Well, I didn't tell her that I was looking for my daughter, so I shouldn't have expected her to break it to me gently.
It-- It shouldn't really hurt, you know, losing something you never had in the first place.
So you don't even know what she looked like? As an adult, I mean.
Julia looks like her.
A lot.
You'll see when you meet her.
Oh, I'm not gonna do that.
What? I'm not going to meet Julia.
What do you mean? She's my sister.
I know who she is.
How could you not wanna meet her? Bailey, I'm not gonna meet any of them.
I came here looking for a grown daughter, and that's all.
Because when you get old, you wanna make amends.
But I found my daughter gone, and I found five kids instead.
Kids.
One of them's only a baby.
You all need things from a grandfather that I'm just not able to give you.
I can't handle five kids.
I can give you money to help you in school, but that's it.
Look-- If you're gonna go on talking about meeting the rest of them, don't.
That's not gonna happen.
Big night, huh? You and Ms.
Schrader? Yeah.
Um, I gotta You look nice.
I bet she really appreciated it.
Yeah, listen, Claud, I don't really feel like talking, so I'm just Well, were you, like, you know, nice to her? What? Well, I mean, obviously, you stayed over, so obviously, you You know, so I just wanted to know if you considered her needs.
What? Were you generous? What the hell do you know about generous? Well, I read Cosmo.
Well, you should stop.
Now go away.
For your information, I'm not that great at algebra, so I think I have the right to know how Ms.
Schrader's gonna react when she sees the name Salinger on my test.
Happy and fulfilled or hostile and frustrated? Well, you better have cuddled.
[COMPUTER BEEPING.]
I did everything you said.
Okay.
Here, just give it to me.
I'm not gonna learn anything by reading over your shoulder.
Just let me do it, and then I'll explain it to you, and then it'll finally get done, and it'll take less time.
Okay, fine! Go ahead.
Save the day.
Prove how much smarter you are.
News flash, Julia.
If I wanted to prove how much smarter I was, I'd just show you all the A's I've gotten in this class.
-I don't believe you.
-What?! That is exactly what I told you you'd do.
What? I'm just trying to help you.
You can't do it without shoving your superiority in my face.
All right! Fine.
You're right.
I'm the one with the ego problem.
I'm the one with all the hang-ups.
You were right from the beginning.
I'm just way too competitive for you.
So I think it's better that you just do it by yourself.
Mm-hm.
Okay, here's what I do.
I call him, I tell him I wanna get together for lunch or something.
And then I tell everyone else to meet me there.
And then when he sees us all together, when he sees Owen and when he gets to look at Julia, there's no way he'll be able to walk away.
They're his family.
He'll wanna talk to them, right? Yeah.
Yeah, maybe.
What if he doesn't, Bailey? I mean, what if he shows up, and he takes a look at all of you, and he still doesn't want you? Do you really want Claudia to see her grandfather walk away from her? Well I guess I guess that's a chance that I have to take, because he's our family.
You know? I mean, it's like we've been waiting for him for two years.
You have no idea how much he means to us, Sarah.
Actually, I do.
Yeah, of course you do.
So what's worse: getting to know someone and being disappointed, or never knowing them at all? I don't know.
Okay, so here's the thing.
I have a computer test this afternoon on which I cannot afford to do poorly.
AndGod knows why, but you are the only person who can explain this stuff to me in a language that I understand.
So what I wanna do is I wanna ask you to tutor me again.
I don't think so.
Come on.
Miller, please? I'll pay you.
Rather than looking at this as a purchase agreement, how 'bout seeing it as a barter? What? What are you saying? I give you what you want.
You give me what I want.
What do you want? A date.
No! No way! Uh-uh.
Fine.
Good luck on the test.
Okay, look, we can have coffee.
No.
A date.
Dinner, maybe some dancing-- Dancing? Miller, come on.
You're not gonna have fun.
Hey, that's my problem.
Okay, how about this: a date, but only if I get an A? How do I know you won't throw it? If I were willing to throw this, I wouldn't be here, would I? Good point.
Hope you're here as a friend and not as a disgruntled parent.
No, no.
I'm here as, uh Yeah, a friend.
In fact, um definitely as a friend.
Was there something weird about the way you just said "friend"? Maybe.
Yeah.
See you're great, but I think that you and I-- I think that we have different time-frames about all this, which Which is-- Is okay, but, I mean, timing is everything, right? So what I was thinking is-- I was thinking that we should just, you know, be friends.
So you just broke up with me? That's what that was? Yeah.
No, you can't.
You don't have enough information to break up with me.
I figured that the information that you gave me yesterday-- Oh, yesterday.
Oh, for God's sake.
Yesterday was a single woman's day from hell.
I mean, it started with this insane phone call from my ex-boyfriend Wayne, during which many tears were shed.
Not mine, I might add.
And many vicious names were called.
Those actually were mine.
So, of course, the idea of rushing to commitment or to bed was unnerving.
But if you were to ask me another time, like now, I'd say yes.
I'm sorry.
What just happened here? Your problem is that I said I had a problem moving forward here, and I'm saying I don't actually have that problem.
I am-- I am problem-free.
I am into this.
So unless you had another problem Umno.
Okay.
Yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yup.
Yupper, yup, yup, yup, yup.
Yup, yup.
Yupper.
That's right? You're sure? Julia, I wrote the test.
I'm sure.
Are you sure you wouldn't rather wait till I finished grading this? No.
I'm pretty curious about how I'm doing.
Well, no mistakes yet.
You're obviously doing very well.
Yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yupper.
No.
Wait.
That isn't right.
Sure it is.
That program will run.
Yeah, maybe it will, but look at all the extra steps I used.
It's not the most efficient way of doing it.
No, but it still works.
Yeah, but I shouldn't get a full credit.
The question clearly asked for the best program.
I'm not gonna take points off.
You have to.
I wasn't efficient.
I wasn't precise.
You want me to take points off? How else am I gonna learn? All right, five points off.
That drops you down to an A-minus.
Happy? Ecstatic.
Yup, yup, yup You're early.
I wasn't expecting you till 10.
Yeah, I was hoping that we could talk.
About? Well, it's, um I'm kind of in a weird situation right now.
Could you hang on a sec? I'm in the middle of some work here, Charlie, and I hate to be a bitch, but I've been going all day.
We both know how little sleep I had last night.
So I really don't have the energy for a heart-to-heart.
Is that okay? Okay.
Um, so should I leave? [SIGHS.]
Tell you what, give me 25 minutes to wind up this business, and I'll be all yours.
Pour yourself a drink.
Yeah, hi.
No, no, it's nothing.
Oh, hi.
I just, uh, called down for room service so that I-- What's the difference? Come on in.
Uh, uh-uh.
I don't want to.
And I don't want to take your money, and I don't wanna get to know you.
I mean, I do but there are five of us, and we all need you.
You-- You-- You can't imagine-- I mean, last year, Claudia needed a grandfather so much that she actually went out and tried to find you.
And-- And Owen My God, Owen never even knew our parents, so of course he needs you.
Only you just wanna know me, so I don't know what to do.
Do I lie to them and never tell them about you? Or do I tell them that I met you and that you're gonna send me to school, but that you don't want anything to do with them? That is-- That's an impossible choice.
I can't do either one of those things.
So what I'm gonna do is Is I'm gonna forget I ever met you.
You know Mom hardly ever talked about you.
Hardly ever.
And when she did she would just say that you were someone who made things worse.
And now I know what she meant.
No! No! No! No! No! No! The deal was an A.
I got an A-minus.
That's still an A.
No! It is not! An A is an A.
An A-minus is something else entirely.
Nonsense.
An A-minus is still a member of the greater A family.
You're changing the rules.
You're welshing on a deal.
I am not.
Are too.
What is wrong with you? You and I are never gonna have a relationship.
So why do you want this? Because, okay? Because what? Because! Because I really wanna have a date.
A good one.
With you.
Have you never had a date before? Is that it? No, I have had a date before.
One date with Gigi Sanchez.
I took her to see The Lion King.
She was very moved by the ending.
She seemed to enjoy the pizza as well.
So it went well, then.
I'm not done.
Um, I saw her safely to her house, said goodnight, thinking all was well.
Later, when I got home, I happened to look in the mirror.
Oh, no.
I had not one not two but three strings of cheese hanging off my face.
-Cheese? -From the pizza.
Yeah, I know.
But how? I don't know.
But there they were, and they'd been there all evening long.
And Gigi had said nothing.
Oh.
Wow.
I'm not stupid, Julia.
I know what everyone thinks of me.
I use the bathrooms too.
I see all the Miller West jokes they write up there.
I don't understand it.
I'm just like my parents, and they've always had a lot of friends.
And I know I say a lot of stupid things to you sometimes, but just 'causeyou know, I kind of like you, andyou're real pretty.
And I think if you decided to go on a date with me, you might find out that I'm not so bad.
And then maybe you'd tell your friends, "Guess what.
He's kind of nice.
" And then maybe the people who write all those jokes, they'd hear about it.
And they'd stop me in the hallway and they'd talk to me and they'd see they were wrong about me.
You know.
Maybe they'd realize thatI am different, butin a good way.
Claudia! Claudia.
Sorry.
I'm glad I caught you.
I made Charlie some chicken soup for that cold he has.
Any chance you could bring it to him? Umsure.
Oh, great.
Thanks.
Is he better today? No.
No, he's still bad.
Don't let him pass it on to you.
Don't worry.
I doubt it's contagious.
For your cold.
I don't have a cold.
Yeah, I know.
But, evidently, Ms.
Schrader thinks you do, which is funny because you seemed pretty healthy to me when you came home from her house at 8:30 this morning.
Damn.
You're darned right, damn! You weren't at her house, were you? You were cheating on her.
I am not cheating on her.
It's not like Emily and I are-- My personal life is none of your business.
It is too my business.
Ms.
Schrader is my teacher.
And she's really nice.
Now she's gonna be all upset when she finds out about this, not to mention what it'll do to my report card.
She is not gonna find out.
Just fix it, Charlie.
Whoever that other girl is, dump her.
That's pretty easy for you.
And go back to being nice to Ms.
Schrader.
What are you looking at? See, this is the one I like, but Eli, the drummer, he thinks he looks fat, so You sure you wanna look at these now? Oh.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
Which one did you say you liked? If there's something else that you'd rather talk about, I understand.
There's not that much to say.
You know? It's over.
And I'm fine.
Really.
I'm exactly where I was four days ago.
I didn't have the money then.
I was figuring I'd just take out a loan or get financial aid, and I can still do that, easy.
So So really, I'm no worse off at all.
He has a crooked tooth.
Like this one.
Overlaps the one next to it.
Mom had that.
And so does Charlie.
So how's the tickle? Hi.
Is it gone? Did the soup work? Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
The soup was amazing.
Good.
So, uh I was wondering what you were doing tonight.
Family dinner night.
Oh.
That's too bad, 'cause I-- KATHLEEN: No, thanks.
I see him.
Charlie.
I can't stay.
I have a car waiting.
Martin Rossmore from the other night.
He wants you to do his 40th anniversary.
I told him you were very hot, so be sure to put him on hold at least twice during your conversation.
I quoted him a hundred a head.
I know, I know, it's twice what you ask, but it's what you're worth, so don't argue, all right? Call him tonight, and then call me right after.
Um I don't have time for "ums.
" I'm late for a meeting.
Nice to meet you.
Bye.
No, really, the pleasure was all mine.
What was that? She's this woman that, um I catered.
The birthday lady? Right.
Ha-ha.
Yes.
Oh, scary.
[LAUGHS.]
Right.
Anyway, um you were saying Oh, right.
Okay.
So here's what I'm thinking.
After your family dinner, ice cream, hot fudge and a movie.
And if you wanted, you could bring a toothbrush.
A toothbrush? Well, yeah.
You won't necessarily need it, but you might if youwanted to stay over or something.
I know.
Go figure.
JULIA: I didn't realize you're such a good basketball player.
MILLER: Ahh, it's easy.
It's all angles and vectors.
Mechanical physics.
I never thought of it that way.
Everything is physics, Julia.
Not everything.
Yeah, everything.
The light reflecting off those windows: optical physics.
[SIREN.]
How that siren is barely audible? Acoustical physics.
The way that water will splash when a car drives through it: again, mechanical physics.
What about falling in love? That's not physics.
It can perhaps be rooted in thermodynamics.
The exchange of heat between matter.
Or maybe it's chemistry.
No.
That's just a myth perpetuated by the chemists.
[LAUGHS.]
Um I should just cut down this street here.
Oh.
I've gotta get to my family's restaurant.
I'm meeting up with them.
Wellthanks.
You know what? This was fun.
Well, good.
I'm pleased.
So You can give me a little kiss if you want.
Oh, that's all right.
No.
Really, I won't mind.
That's okay, Julia.
Okay.
I think a first real kiss should mean something to both people.
You're really romantic, Miller.
You know that? Yeah, I do.
Bye.
Hey.
Sorry I'm late.
It's okay.
We haven't even ordered.
Yeah.
What's with the service in this place? BAILEY: What's everybody having? I've eaten already.
CHARLIE: I can't decide.
CLAUDIA: Why don't you order two things, eat them both, but not tell them.
CHARLIE: Shut up, Claudia.
Uh, I hope you'll excuse me.
I wonder if, um I could introduce myself.
My name is Jacob Gordon.
I'm I'm your grandfather.
