Men in Trees s02e18 Episode Script
Surprise, Surprise
Previously on "men in trees" you seem like a happy couple.
We're not happy like you and jack.
He's been having a little sculptor's block.
U're going to live with her? Just gonna share an apartment.
This little divey place I keep near campus.
When I'm not there,jack can crash.
You're gonna fall in love.
One date,anI won't take no for an answer.
Guess I'm a little lost without mai.
If you can dig down deep I can get her back? Patrick: Oh,my god! I remember everything.
I got to get back to elmo! * There's a mouse in the cupboard that nibbles your crumbs * * and you talk to him every night * * you say,"hey,mr.
Whiskers,I'm bored,* * and I'm numb you can stay if you just treat me right" * * who do you need? * * Nobody you're lucky nobody's around * * I can pour my own drinks * * no,thanks,mister * * go on and get out of town * * and you're gorgeous in your evening gown * what? It's rough,right? I mean,I know I said I was done with my book, but it's only the first draft.
There's obviously a lot of editing and stuff left to do.
Just so you know,you don't have to say that you like it.
I can take the truth.
Good.
Because,uh I think it was amazing.
You did? Yeah.
Oh.
I'm kind of blown away.
You are? I just -- I can't believe how much you put yourself out there.
It's sohonest.
Well,you kind of have to be.
Being open is an essential part of the reader/writer relationship.
Or really of any relationship,if you want to get technical.
Spoken like a true relationship coach.
I -- I'm serious.
I-I really do believe that if people would be more willing to air their laundry, dirty or otherwise,the world would be a happier place.
I don't know about that.
Well,why not? That way,you wouldn't have to worry about any surprises springing up later.
What about good surprises? OhI wouldn't risk it.
Whenever you catch somebody off guard, there's always a chance that you're not gonna get the reaction you'd hoped for.
Like this! Stop! Stop it! Stop.
See? Now,that wasn't so bad,was it? That wasn't terrible.
But I meant what I said.
If there's anything that you want to know about me, you just have to ask.
That's okay.
I'm good.
Okay,then,seeing that you just read an entire book about me, I think it's only fair that maybe I should be able to ask you a few things.
Like what? I don't know.
Likehow many women have you been with? Three.
Three? So that would be me,lynn,and a girl from college.
Oh.
You don't want to ask me how many men I've slept with? Not really.
It's not like it's a scary number or anything, if that's what you're worried about.
I'm not.
I just don't need to know.
Seriously,how gorgeous is new york in the fall? I know we agreed to split the year in both of our native lands, but are we really sure we don't want to stay here a teensy bit longer? I'm sure.
I can't wait to get back to elmo and to stop wearing stupid ties and eating dinner in the middle of the afternoon.
It is not the middle of the afternoon.
It's 4:15.
And I was lucky to even get that reservation.
Blu is the place to eat right now.
I just like it when we order in and hang out together on the couch.
I know you do.
That's why I do it.
So,can't you get dressed up and go out every once in a while for me? I guess.
God,you look sexy in a tie.
I think this is the block,but I don't see the restaurant.
I don't see a sign.
There isn't one.
Just look for a blue awning.
Woman: Alex! Oh,thank you,sir! Oh,alex! You could have died! Are you okay? Sam,are you okay? This man's a hero! He saved this little boy's life! You're like an angel standing in front of those clouds.
Oh,really? Would an angel do this? Maybe we should slow things down.
Oh sorry.
Was that too much? I don't want to ruin this because we're going so fast.
That's a good line.
Line? What do you mean? I mean,I bet you say that to all the girls.
Trust me,uh,I do not.
You're very different from the other girls.
Different how? The way you carry yourself, like a woman who knows what she wants.
The way you listen with your eyes.
The way you make me feel when I stop kissing you.
When you stop kissing me? When I stop kissing other girls,I feel nothing.
A kiss is just a kiss.
But when I stop kissing you, I feel this,umthirst, like I am in the desert, and if I don't kiss you again,I might die.
Oh.
Do you know what I mean? Yeah.
I used to feel that way,and I think I'm beginning to feel that way again.
I think I'm still a little thirsty.
You gonna eat that? No,help yourself.
I think mrs.
Pancake went a little croatian-spice crazy with that number.
You got any more of those yummy biscuity-cakey things in there? Yes,and it's mine.
If I'm not mistaken, the palacinkes sent this thank-you care package to me and ben.
Unless you've suddenly decided to let ivan sleep at your house, in which case,I will gladly hand over the yummy biscuity-cake.
Geez,buzz,you might want to slow down.
Looks like you're eating your last meal or something.
May very well be.
I haven't eaten anything that didn't require a can opener since mai left.
Marin: Hi! Hey.
Hi.
Hey.
Howdy! Oh,those look good.
What are those? Spicy croatian meatballs.
You want to try some? Be forewarned.
This transaction ends with you having to sleep with ivan.
What? Ignore him.
Do you want me to fix you a plate? Uh,no,thanks.
I'm not much of a spicy person anyway.
I'm not either,usually,but I don't know what's gotten into me.
It's my third helping.
Well,could it be that you're eating for more than one person? No.
Oh.
And got to say,getting a little frustrated.
I'm doing everything right.
And every time I pee on that stupid stick,it comes back negative.
My ex and I were trying to get pregnant for a year.
It wasn't till we stopped trying that matty came along.
Well,babies come when you least expect them.
Lord knows patrick wasn't planned.
Neither was woodruff jr.
Were you,boy? Were you,boy? Were you? Were you? Booga-booga-booga-boo! Oh,good boy! That was mildly disturbing.
So what brings you out into the light of day? I thought you were gonna spend the whole week holed up at home,working on your book.
Yeah,no need.
Those days are Over,my friend.
My book is officially finito.
I actually wrote "finito.
" That's great! Thank you.
Congratulations! Did you and jack do something special to celebrate? Oh,we went on a nice long walk and then had champagne with dinner.
Sounds romantic.
Oh,it was.
It was nice to share the experience with somebody.
I'm usually much more self-indulgent.
Oh,yeah? Well,in new york,whenever I finished something, I would have a "me" day -- a full day of spa treatments followed by an evening of unbridled cookery.
Yowza.
Yeah,but now that I'm in elmo, I will settle for tea bags for my eye bags and a basket full of fries.
They got a great spa in anchorage.
You could go there.
Oh,yeah,but it's so far to travel in one day.
So? Spend the night.
You could stay at julia's and my place.
Really? Yeah,there's no one there during the weekend, and it has a full kitchen.
Hey,that's not a bad idea -- a little solo adventure.
Well,maybe I could take off right after the -- our radio show! Which I started hosting when I was 19, right after I read "the rest of the story" by radio legend paul harvey.
Surprise! Guess who got his memory back! It was like my brain exploded or something, and all these memories just came flying out! I can't believe you got your hand caught in a condom machine again.
Ma! Sweetheart! You got a new dog! Yeah.
I remember our old dog,ody.
He used to let me pull his ears back and pretend he was spock and I was captain kirk.
And I remember when I hosted my first academy award party, and you came dressed in your wedding tux.
And,mom mai,you made those awesome oscar dumplings! I just realized how much I missed you guys.
We missed you,too,son.
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna make my special dumplings today just for you! Family meal? That sounds awesome! What time should buzz and mai come over? Whenever.
Uh,great! H-how about 7:00? We'll be there.
Hey,marin.
Hey,give me a hug,you big lug.
Sorry for pulling all those moves on you.
That's not cool,especially when jack was,like,away and all.
What? It's -- it's all right.
You weren't yourself.
I mean,you're still,like,an attractive lady and all, but annie's the only one for me.
I know.
Hey,where is annie,anyway? Buzz: Uh I haven't seen her today, but I think she's still all wrapped up with this variety-show thing she's trying to do.
Variety show? Yeah.
Cool.
Oh I got to go.
I can't wait to tell her the news.
Well,welcome back! Just so you know,I'm making my dumplings with extra gluten, allergy boy,so don't come hungry.
Annie? Are you here? Annie? Annie! Patrick? What are you doing? I remember everything.
I love you so much.
I will never,ever -- Is somebody in the bathroom? Uh maybe? Patrick.
Hey,buddy.
I didn't know you were back.
Why are you,uh? Why is he? Wait,did you guys just? Oh,god! Patrick,please,let me explain! I -- oh,my god! Oh,hey,there! You doing the show today? I didn't expect you to come back so soon.
Yeah,neither did annie,apparently.
Oh,was she surprised to see you? Not as surprised as I was to see her and ivan together naked.
Ohno.
I didn't realize that they were seeing each other.
Oh,they were seeing each other,all right -- all of each other! Naked.
Oh,patrick.
Oh,I'm so sorry.
Oh,my god! I wish I had amnesia again.
How can I get over the sight of them together like that? Oh,well,in my experience these things can sometimes pull people apart, butthey can also make a bond stronger.
Oh.
You're on.
Hey,elmo.
Before we get started today,I want to wish a warm welcome home to patrick.
A lot has happened since he left.
We all know how unsettling change can sometimes be, especially when we learn something about a person we don't want to know.
Can knowing too much be a deal-breaker? What do you think,elmo? In a relationship,is it better to be an open book,or are some things better left unread? Jane: "If there's one thing we can say " about the people of this great city, "it's that we new yorkers know the real deal when we see it.
"Sam soloway is not only the real deal,he is a hero.
"So,if you happen to see him on the back of his trash truck "just doing his job,be sure to thank him,won't you?" Wow.
That's an amazing editorial.
I can't believe all this attention you're getting.
Sam: I know.
It's crazy.
Who was at the door? Only my dream come true.
Flat-screen tv.
Oh,that's a tv? It looks like a refrigerator.
Who's it from? It just says,"local businesses support local heroes.
" And where do these local businesses think we're gonna put that thing? I don't know,but I'm gonna find a plac if it kills me.
I swear,if this keeps up,we should stay in new york longer.
* There was a time when the sunshine * * played in your soft blond hair * patrick,please,I just want -- it's okay.
Annie,I -- I've been thinking a lot about everything.
I know you had every right to do what you did.
And even though it was really hard for me to see you with ivan I can get past that.
I just want to go back to the way we were.
K-kiss me.
What? Just kiss me now.
Oh.
* This would all go away * * but not today * you taste like blueberries.
I'm sorry,patrick.
Don't be sorry.
I love blueberries.
No,I mean I'm sorry I can't forget what's happened.
I can't go back to the way we were.
What? Why? I said I could get past the whole ivan thing.
But i can'T.
I've developed feelings for him.
Are you pulling my leg? Patrick,life didn't stop when you lost your memory.
You moved on.
And as painful and awful as it was for me,I moved on,too.
AndI don't think I can go back.
I'm sorry.
* With me,with you just a little more time * * with you and me * Oh,my god! Jim.
Marin,hey.
I'm sosorry.
I didn't mean to interrupt anything.
Jack told me the place was empty on -- on the weekends.
I didn't expect to see -- yeah,sometimes I use this apartment as Asecond work studio.
Oh.
Claudia's my sculpting model.
Hi.
Hello,there.
How are you? Good,thanks.
Good,good.
Umuh well guess I better get going.
Uh marin,look,I feel awful about this whole mix-up.
Oh,no,no.
Please,it's fine,really.
I was gonna head back out anyway.
Yeah.
Um,good to see you! Patrick,you're early.
No,I'Mlate.
Annie's moved on.
She'Swith ivan now.
Oh,dear.
Are you staying over? Mai: Hey! Why don't you buzz off?! And keep your lying hands off my dumplings! Buzz: I was just taking them in the other room.
I know how you operate.
And don't think you're staying past dessert.
Don't worry.
I'm not staying at all.
Uh,sorry to spoil your "welcome home" party,son.
Maybe we'll grab a beer later,huh? What's going on? Uh Mai and buzz are separated.
She's been living here.
Since when? Since buzz flushed our marriage down the toilet.
I can't believe you guys aren't together anymore.
You guys were,like,made for each other.
What happened to everybody? Nothing's the same! Well,that's not true,sweetie.
Come on.
Let's go have a nice no,I don't feel like eating.
I just want to go to my bed in my old room.
Ohyou know,you might be more comfortable on the couch.
* Hey,I don't love you,* * but I love,love,love you * * and I don't miss you,* * but I miss,miss,miss you * * and just as the roller coaster lifts * * I love your moments,moments anyway * jane: Honey,don't take this the wrong way, but I haven't had a chance to read your book yet.
Oh,that's okay.
It's been so crazy with all this hoopla over sam.
Not that I'm complaining.
We got invited to the mayor's house for dinner.
Wow.
I know.
Sam's suddenly become the new york "it" guy of my dreams.
Anyway,don't worry.
I promise I will get to your book A.
S.
A.
P.
Oh,that's okay.
I'm not calling about my book.
Um,I'm calling for advice.
I am in anchorage for a little post-writing r&r, and,long story short, I think I just caught julia's husband with another woman.
Shipwreck julia? Yep.
What should I do? Okay,first of all,"pretty sure" means "reasonable doubt," and if that's the case,you should absolutely butt-outsky.
Really? Honey,if you're not sure what you saw,you didn't see anything.
Oh,no.
I definitely saw something.
Jim was with a naked woman in jack and julia's apartment.
Apparently,he was sculpting her.
That's plausible,I suppose.
Don't you think I'm obligated to say something? I mean,I always wish I knew about graham and kiki earlier.
Look,if julia was a close friend, I'd tell you to say something, but you hardly know this woman.
I guess it cou have been as innocent as he said.
Sure.
He's a sculptor,after all.
He's probably seen a million naked women.
Yeah.
Hey,unlike jack.
What? I just found out that he's only slept with three people,including me.
Three? Including you? Mm-hmm.
Wow.
You didn't tell him your number,did you? He didn't ask.
Phew! Oh,what are you phewing? It's not like it's a scary number or anything.
Oh,sorry,honey.
Oh! Got to run! Our stretch just pulled up.
Okay.
Aah!Aah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you.
It's just I couldn't sleep.
Me neither.
Took me years to get used to sleeping with buzz snoring all the time.
Now I can't sleep without it.
Go figure.
You want some tea? Okay.
What? I remember this one time buzz took me fishing.
He kept nodding off in the boat, and every time he did,he'd start snoring,like -- It was so loud.
He'd wake himself up,and then he'd be all "what the hell's that?" And the best part is,when I told him it was him, he absolutely refused to believe me.
He always was a pigheaded horse's ass.
Yeah,he's pretty stubborn,all right.
He never once gave up on getting to know me, even when I didn't know myself.
He may have screwed up a few times, but I always knew his heart was in the right place.
What are you doing here? I thought you'd be with patrick.
So did I.
Guess we were all wrong.
What happened? I slept with ivan,and it kind of changed everything.
Well,sex definitely has a way of doing that.
It was always great th patrick,but wow.
Ivan really understands a woman's body.
Great sex can be great and all but the physical part gets real old real fast unless you have a deeper connection.
That's what surprised me -- our connection.
When I kissed patrick,all I kept thinking about was ivan.
This must be hard.
I feel awful.
Listen,people change.
In the end,you got to follow your heart.
Hey! How was your trip? Oh,it was,uhinteresting.
Yeah? Great.
Hey,I'm hungry.
Are you hungry? Yeah,I'm starving,actually.
I was on the road all day, and there's no good places to stop.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I should have made something, but I got caught up doing research and stuff.
Oh.
It's all right.
We can just to the chieftain.
Yeah? Okay.
Where did I leave my jacket? Okay,that's enough tv.
It's 4:00.
Time to get dressed.
Come on! Hop to! Oh,look at my big boy! Come to mama! Did you not get dressed today? Why should I? Obviously nobody cares what I do anymore.
What are you talking about? I don't belong anywhere.
That puppy's taken my place with you.
Ivan's taken my place with annie.
And it's all my fault.
I know I acted like a jerk when I lost my memory, and I pushed everyone away.
No wonder you both replaced me.
Don't be such a baby,patrick.
You're an adult,so start acting like one.
For the record,I am your mother, and I love you,and I always will.
And if you're so upset about losing annie,then do something.
Jack: Don't worry.
I'm 99% sure I left it at the post office when I came here earlier to pick up a package.
Well,good luck finding it now.
If jerome was anywhere near it,you can kiss that coat goodbye.
Surprise! What? Who is this for? It's for you,for finishing your book.
Oh! Oh "congratulations,author" what's that other little part say? Oh.
"Welcome back,patrick.
" We couldn't throw a big party without acknowledging the return of our favorite innkeeper.
This is so amazing.
I am so touched.
And,jerome,I am so sorry.
You know I was only joking about that whole coat thing,right? Well,I happen to have a very fair 24-hour rule when it comes to finders-keepers.
I am not a total barbarian,you know.
Cheers so did we really get you? Oh,I can honestly say I've never been more surprised in my whole life.
Congrats! Oh,mai.
Thank you.
Oh,marin,look.
Look who it is.
Surprise.
Sorry for being late.
I got lost.
Let me make up to you buying you a drink Um,ginger ale.
Marin? Uh,I' have a vodka on the rocks.
I am so happy to see you again.
You too.
I'm so glad that jack invited me.
Yeah.
I got to say,I really enjoyed it when jim and I stayed over.
I mean,not that you had much choice in the matter.
Oh,please.
It was fun.
Well,thanks again for everything.
My line of work's pretty man-centric, so I don't get the chance to make a lot of girlfriends.
So it was nice to have somebody to open up to.
Well,it was a pleasure.
You know,that night was like this great turning point for us.
I think you guys buying jim's piece really helped inspire him again.
He's been in one of these intense creative periods.
I haven't seen him like this in years.
Really? Well,that's great.
Yeah,yeah,it is.
He just sold three new pieces.
The only downside is he's been working so hard, I've hardly seen him the last few weeks.
Oh,that's good.
I mean,that -- that he's so busy and everything.
I-I guess he's working on something this weekend,huh? Actually,jim flew to portland on friday.
He's spending a few days with his mom.
She hasn't been well.
Oh.
Wow.
He is quite Aguy.
I was thinking,what if we skipped this thing tonight and cuddled up on the couch instead? But I promised to make an appearance.
I know,but we've been making appearances nonstop for the past few days.
Still recovering from that basketball thing we went to.
Jane,we had free floor tickets to a knicks game.
Do you have any idea how much those cost? No,and,frankly,I don't care.
I am tired of sharing you with the rest of the world.
Let's stay home and have a little playoff me of our own.
We can'T.
I'm the guest of honor.
Besides,it's a good cause.
I really think this whole "clean street" campaign's a great idea.
Of course you do.
You work for the sanitation department.
Now.
But who knows? All these little appearances may lead to some big business opportunities.
Isn't that the whole networking thing you're always telling me about? Since when do you listen to me? Come on.
It'll be fun.
And they're giving away free t-shirts.
Which one do you like? I thought you hated wearing ties.
Well,I got to look good for my public,right? Hey.
Hi.
Patrick,I just want to -- annie,listen,I -- you go.
I didn't get a chance to tell you earlier, but in spite of everything that's happened, I just want you to know, I'm really glad you're home.
Thanks for saying that.
I made something for you.
I've been taking a cake-decorating class in mitexi.
I used your favorite colors.
I guess someone must have eaten some of these already.
Hello,patrick ivan.
Delicious.
May have this dance,fair maiden? Umsure.
* First hits your hands touches your face * * though it's uncomfortable * can I steal this man? * Though it is awkward days leave the night * what's up,coach? I caught jim with another woman at the apartment in anchorage.
What? I wasn't gonna say anything because I wasn't sure, but th julia mentions that he was in portland with his sick mother, which is obviously a lie and incredibly low,if you ask me.
Man.
I didn't want to know this.
I had to get it off my chest.
Great,so now I have it on my chest.
What should I do? Do you think i should tell her? No.
You can't tell her.
It's none of our businesS.
Maybe they have an open relationship or something.
Marin: Why would he lie about being in portland? Jack: I don't know.
I don't want to know.
We should mind our own business.
Marin: You're right.
It's not our place to say anything.
Exactly.
* I don't know why he would talk to look away * * it must be something wrong with me * * there's nothing that i won't believe * Patrick: Hey,that's it,ivan.
I want you to leave my fiancée alone right now.
She's not your fiancée any more,patrick.
You sold her ring to go to new york and told me to go for her,remember? Patrick: I remember.
But now I take it bacK.
Ivan: Sorry,you can't do that.
Patrick: It's not fair for you to take advantage of her.
I know how you operate.
And annie deserves better than a player like you.
Ivan: I'm not going to give her up because you say so.
Patrick: Oh,yeah? Ivan: Yeah.
You're right not to challenge me.
My reflexes are much faster than any one.
The old me probably would have agreed with you but the now me doesn't really give a flying crap! Patrick,stop thiS.
If you want to stop,you're going to have to fight mE.
Come on,buddy.
No hard feelings,okay? You guy having fun tonight or what? Hmm? Sam: YeaH.
It's going great.
Yeah,great.
All right,all right.
Awesome.
Hey,i'll be right back,okay? Sam: Okay.
Jane: Should we slip out before he comes back? Sam: We can't leave yet.
The promotions guy is going to be right back.
Besides,i haven't gotten my free t-shirt.
Jane: I bet you they already handed them out.
Oh,yes,yes.
The time has come for the free t-shirt giveaway contest.
Let's give it up for our favourite local hero and guest judge,sam soloway.
now,ladies and gentlemen,the trashy cancans.
Get to judging.
What are you doing in here? Going through every one's pockets? Could you just leave me be,please? Just for oncE.
What's wrong with you? You don't look so good.
I'm finE.
You don't look fine.
You looK clammY.
Your face looks funny.
I'm fine.
FinE.
Why do you always have to be such a pig-headed horse's ass? What? Come on,old man.
Let's go home.
I'll make you some of my wellness soup.
Jane: You know what the biggest surprise is? It's not the hero parT.
No.
I always knew sam was a hero.
I just never knew he was a guy like every other guy.
I guess you can marry a person and till never really know them.
* When you wake up in the morning alone * * wish you had a reason * Get out of here.
Lions can mate up to 50 times a day? Jack: I'm not kidding.
I read it somewhere.
No wonder they're called kings of the forest.
Marin: Oh,god.
This cake is so good.
Does anybody want another piece? Actually,I don't know if it's all the mating talk or what but i'm suddenly feeling very warm.
Yeah? You want to get some fresh air? Yeah.
They're such a nice couple.
Jack: Yeah.
And I so feel for them.
The prospects of getting pregnant can be so daunting sometimes.
Jim and i are actually talking about trying sooN.
It just feels like the right time.
??? Jack: Marin saw jim with another woman when she was in anchorage yesterday.
Marin: I am so sorry.
I didn't know if i should say something or noT.
I don't know the situation and i wasn't sure.
God.
There I was going on and on and on about how great things are between us.
I feel like such an ass! Jack: He's the ass,not you.
Did she have dark hair? Marin: I guess.
I don't know.
I didn't really get a good look at her.
Yeah.
And what did he say,that he was sculpting her or something? Marin: I don't feel-- i-- i really think you should talk to jim about thiS.
Jack: Is it okay that i said something? I should have known.
And this isn't the first time jim's cheated on mE.
Or the last probablY.
I'm glad you told me.
I'd better get going bause,you know,i've got a long drive ahead of mE.
Jack: I'll walk you to your car.
I just threw up in the bathroom and i totally feel like crap.
I think I'm pregnant.
If that's the case,then buzz,jerome and i are pregnant,too.
I think we all got a bad case of mrs.
Pancakes meatball surise.
* the morning has grown and someone's going your way * Marin: What were you thinking back there? I thought we agreed not to say anything.
Jack: I know.
It just didn't feel right to know and not tell her.
It isn't fair to julia.
Marin: What about being fair to me? You made it sound like I was keeping this big secret when i wanted to tell her in the first place.
Jack: Sorry.
I thought it would be okay.
Then julia talking about being pregnant.
Marin: Suddenly you changed your minD.
Jack: She's been through so much.
I feel like i owed it to her to be honest.
Uh.
I don't want to ever end up like them.
Me neither.
Oh.
There's an old saying: What you don't know can't hurt you.
But is that really true? Or can the things not said today haunt you tomorrow? * life shows you something real * * you wish me there to see * * and that's what lovers feel * Everyone knows the truth can be painful.
but it can also set you free.
It's a risk you take whenever you open yourself up to something.
You're going to love it.
It's the place to eat right now.
Right.
Elmo or? Bust.
Let's drive to elmO.
Just the two of us.
Jane: But what about all those great opportunities you'll miss out on? Sam: The only opportunity I don't want to miss out on is you.
Jane: Thank god.
I'm so sick of new york.
* so to the garden we go * Marin: I,for one,think that honesty is worth iT.
* You know i love you for love's sake * Marin: What? Jack: Okay.
Tell me your numbeR.
Marin: Really? Jack: Yes.
Marin: Stop wincing! It's not like it's a scary number.
Marin: And who knows? You just might be pleasantly surprised.
* oh,oh,oh,oh *
We're not happy like you and jack.
He's been having a little sculptor's block.
U're going to live with her? Just gonna share an apartment.
This little divey place I keep near campus.
When I'm not there,jack can crash.
You're gonna fall in love.
One date,anI won't take no for an answer.
Guess I'm a little lost without mai.
If you can dig down deep I can get her back? Patrick: Oh,my god! I remember everything.
I got to get back to elmo! * There's a mouse in the cupboard that nibbles your crumbs * * and you talk to him every night * * you say,"hey,mr.
Whiskers,I'm bored,* * and I'm numb you can stay if you just treat me right" * * who do you need? * * Nobody you're lucky nobody's around * * I can pour my own drinks * * no,thanks,mister * * go on and get out of town * * and you're gorgeous in your evening gown * what? It's rough,right? I mean,I know I said I was done with my book, but it's only the first draft.
There's obviously a lot of editing and stuff left to do.
Just so you know,you don't have to say that you like it.
I can take the truth.
Good.
Because,uh I think it was amazing.
You did? Yeah.
Oh.
I'm kind of blown away.
You are? I just -- I can't believe how much you put yourself out there.
It's sohonest.
Well,you kind of have to be.
Being open is an essential part of the reader/writer relationship.
Or really of any relationship,if you want to get technical.
Spoken like a true relationship coach.
I -- I'm serious.
I-I really do believe that if people would be more willing to air their laundry, dirty or otherwise,the world would be a happier place.
I don't know about that.
Well,why not? That way,you wouldn't have to worry about any surprises springing up later.
What about good surprises? OhI wouldn't risk it.
Whenever you catch somebody off guard, there's always a chance that you're not gonna get the reaction you'd hoped for.
Like this! Stop! Stop it! Stop.
See? Now,that wasn't so bad,was it? That wasn't terrible.
But I meant what I said.
If there's anything that you want to know about me, you just have to ask.
That's okay.
I'm good.
Okay,then,seeing that you just read an entire book about me, I think it's only fair that maybe I should be able to ask you a few things.
Like what? I don't know.
Likehow many women have you been with? Three.
Three? So that would be me,lynn,and a girl from college.
Oh.
You don't want to ask me how many men I've slept with? Not really.
It's not like it's a scary number or anything, if that's what you're worried about.
I'm not.
I just don't need to know.
Seriously,how gorgeous is new york in the fall? I know we agreed to split the year in both of our native lands, but are we really sure we don't want to stay here a teensy bit longer? I'm sure.
I can't wait to get back to elmo and to stop wearing stupid ties and eating dinner in the middle of the afternoon.
It is not the middle of the afternoon.
It's 4:15.
And I was lucky to even get that reservation.
Blu is the place to eat right now.
I just like it when we order in and hang out together on the couch.
I know you do.
That's why I do it.
So,can't you get dressed up and go out every once in a while for me? I guess.
God,you look sexy in a tie.
I think this is the block,but I don't see the restaurant.
I don't see a sign.
There isn't one.
Just look for a blue awning.
Woman: Alex! Oh,thank you,sir! Oh,alex! You could have died! Are you okay? Sam,are you okay? This man's a hero! He saved this little boy's life! You're like an angel standing in front of those clouds.
Oh,really? Would an angel do this? Maybe we should slow things down.
Oh sorry.
Was that too much? I don't want to ruin this because we're going so fast.
That's a good line.
Line? What do you mean? I mean,I bet you say that to all the girls.
Trust me,uh,I do not.
You're very different from the other girls.
Different how? The way you carry yourself, like a woman who knows what she wants.
The way you listen with your eyes.
The way you make me feel when I stop kissing you.
When you stop kissing me? When I stop kissing other girls,I feel nothing.
A kiss is just a kiss.
But when I stop kissing you, I feel this,umthirst, like I am in the desert, and if I don't kiss you again,I might die.
Oh.
Do you know what I mean? Yeah.
I used to feel that way,and I think I'm beginning to feel that way again.
I think I'm still a little thirsty.
You gonna eat that? No,help yourself.
I think mrs.
Pancake went a little croatian-spice crazy with that number.
You got any more of those yummy biscuity-cakey things in there? Yes,and it's mine.
If I'm not mistaken, the palacinkes sent this thank-you care package to me and ben.
Unless you've suddenly decided to let ivan sleep at your house, in which case,I will gladly hand over the yummy biscuity-cake.
Geez,buzz,you might want to slow down.
Looks like you're eating your last meal or something.
May very well be.
I haven't eaten anything that didn't require a can opener since mai left.
Marin: Hi! Hey.
Hi.
Hey.
Howdy! Oh,those look good.
What are those? Spicy croatian meatballs.
You want to try some? Be forewarned.
This transaction ends with you having to sleep with ivan.
What? Ignore him.
Do you want me to fix you a plate? Uh,no,thanks.
I'm not much of a spicy person anyway.
I'm not either,usually,but I don't know what's gotten into me.
It's my third helping.
Well,could it be that you're eating for more than one person? No.
Oh.
And got to say,getting a little frustrated.
I'm doing everything right.
And every time I pee on that stupid stick,it comes back negative.
My ex and I were trying to get pregnant for a year.
It wasn't till we stopped trying that matty came along.
Well,babies come when you least expect them.
Lord knows patrick wasn't planned.
Neither was woodruff jr.
Were you,boy? Were you,boy? Were you? Were you? Booga-booga-booga-boo! Oh,good boy! That was mildly disturbing.
So what brings you out into the light of day? I thought you were gonna spend the whole week holed up at home,working on your book.
Yeah,no need.
Those days are Over,my friend.
My book is officially finito.
I actually wrote "finito.
" That's great! Thank you.
Congratulations! Did you and jack do something special to celebrate? Oh,we went on a nice long walk and then had champagne with dinner.
Sounds romantic.
Oh,it was.
It was nice to share the experience with somebody.
I'm usually much more self-indulgent.
Oh,yeah? Well,in new york,whenever I finished something, I would have a "me" day -- a full day of spa treatments followed by an evening of unbridled cookery.
Yowza.
Yeah,but now that I'm in elmo, I will settle for tea bags for my eye bags and a basket full of fries.
They got a great spa in anchorage.
You could go there.
Oh,yeah,but it's so far to travel in one day.
So? Spend the night.
You could stay at julia's and my place.
Really? Yeah,there's no one there during the weekend, and it has a full kitchen.
Hey,that's not a bad idea -- a little solo adventure.
Well,maybe I could take off right after the -- our radio show! Which I started hosting when I was 19, right after I read "the rest of the story" by radio legend paul harvey.
Surprise! Guess who got his memory back! It was like my brain exploded or something, and all these memories just came flying out! I can't believe you got your hand caught in a condom machine again.
Ma! Sweetheart! You got a new dog! Yeah.
I remember our old dog,ody.
He used to let me pull his ears back and pretend he was spock and I was captain kirk.
And I remember when I hosted my first academy award party, and you came dressed in your wedding tux.
And,mom mai,you made those awesome oscar dumplings! I just realized how much I missed you guys.
We missed you,too,son.
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna make my special dumplings today just for you! Family meal? That sounds awesome! What time should buzz and mai come over? Whenever.
Uh,great! H-how about 7:00? We'll be there.
Hey,marin.
Hey,give me a hug,you big lug.
Sorry for pulling all those moves on you.
That's not cool,especially when jack was,like,away and all.
What? It's -- it's all right.
You weren't yourself.
I mean,you're still,like,an attractive lady and all, but annie's the only one for me.
I know.
Hey,where is annie,anyway? Buzz: Uh I haven't seen her today, but I think she's still all wrapped up with this variety-show thing she's trying to do.
Variety show? Yeah.
Cool.
Oh I got to go.
I can't wait to tell her the news.
Well,welcome back! Just so you know,I'm making my dumplings with extra gluten, allergy boy,so don't come hungry.
Annie? Are you here? Annie? Annie! Patrick? What are you doing? I remember everything.
I love you so much.
I will never,ever -- Is somebody in the bathroom? Uh maybe? Patrick.
Hey,buddy.
I didn't know you were back.
Why are you,uh? Why is he? Wait,did you guys just? Oh,god! Patrick,please,let me explain! I -- oh,my god! Oh,hey,there! You doing the show today? I didn't expect you to come back so soon.
Yeah,neither did annie,apparently.
Oh,was she surprised to see you? Not as surprised as I was to see her and ivan together naked.
Ohno.
I didn't realize that they were seeing each other.
Oh,they were seeing each other,all right -- all of each other! Naked.
Oh,patrick.
Oh,I'm so sorry.
Oh,my god! I wish I had amnesia again.
How can I get over the sight of them together like that? Oh,well,in my experience these things can sometimes pull people apart, butthey can also make a bond stronger.
Oh.
You're on.
Hey,elmo.
Before we get started today,I want to wish a warm welcome home to patrick.
A lot has happened since he left.
We all know how unsettling change can sometimes be, especially when we learn something about a person we don't want to know.
Can knowing too much be a deal-breaker? What do you think,elmo? In a relationship,is it better to be an open book,or are some things better left unread? Jane: "If there's one thing we can say " about the people of this great city, "it's that we new yorkers know the real deal when we see it.
"Sam soloway is not only the real deal,he is a hero.
"So,if you happen to see him on the back of his trash truck "just doing his job,be sure to thank him,won't you?" Wow.
That's an amazing editorial.
I can't believe all this attention you're getting.
Sam: I know.
It's crazy.
Who was at the door? Only my dream come true.
Flat-screen tv.
Oh,that's a tv? It looks like a refrigerator.
Who's it from? It just says,"local businesses support local heroes.
" And where do these local businesses think we're gonna put that thing? I don't know,but I'm gonna find a plac if it kills me.
I swear,if this keeps up,we should stay in new york longer.
* There was a time when the sunshine * * played in your soft blond hair * patrick,please,I just want -- it's okay.
Annie,I -- I've been thinking a lot about everything.
I know you had every right to do what you did.
And even though it was really hard for me to see you with ivan I can get past that.
I just want to go back to the way we were.
K-kiss me.
What? Just kiss me now.
Oh.
* This would all go away * * but not today * you taste like blueberries.
I'm sorry,patrick.
Don't be sorry.
I love blueberries.
No,I mean I'm sorry I can't forget what's happened.
I can't go back to the way we were.
What? Why? I said I could get past the whole ivan thing.
But i can'T.
I've developed feelings for him.
Are you pulling my leg? Patrick,life didn't stop when you lost your memory.
You moved on.
And as painful and awful as it was for me,I moved on,too.
AndI don't think I can go back.
I'm sorry.
* With me,with you just a little more time * * with you and me * Oh,my god! Jim.
Marin,hey.
I'm sosorry.
I didn't mean to interrupt anything.
Jack told me the place was empty on -- on the weekends.
I didn't expect to see -- yeah,sometimes I use this apartment as Asecond work studio.
Oh.
Claudia's my sculpting model.
Hi.
Hello,there.
How are you? Good,thanks.
Good,good.
Umuh well guess I better get going.
Uh marin,look,I feel awful about this whole mix-up.
Oh,no,no.
Please,it's fine,really.
I was gonna head back out anyway.
Yeah.
Um,good to see you! Patrick,you're early.
No,I'Mlate.
Annie's moved on.
She'Swith ivan now.
Oh,dear.
Are you staying over? Mai: Hey! Why don't you buzz off?! And keep your lying hands off my dumplings! Buzz: I was just taking them in the other room.
I know how you operate.
And don't think you're staying past dessert.
Don't worry.
I'm not staying at all.
Uh,sorry to spoil your "welcome home" party,son.
Maybe we'll grab a beer later,huh? What's going on? Uh Mai and buzz are separated.
She's been living here.
Since when? Since buzz flushed our marriage down the toilet.
I can't believe you guys aren't together anymore.
You guys were,like,made for each other.
What happened to everybody? Nothing's the same! Well,that's not true,sweetie.
Come on.
Let's go have a nice no,I don't feel like eating.
I just want to go to my bed in my old room.
Ohyou know,you might be more comfortable on the couch.
* Hey,I don't love you,* * but I love,love,love you * * and I don't miss you,* * but I miss,miss,miss you * * and just as the roller coaster lifts * * I love your moments,moments anyway * jane: Honey,don't take this the wrong way, but I haven't had a chance to read your book yet.
Oh,that's okay.
It's been so crazy with all this hoopla over sam.
Not that I'm complaining.
We got invited to the mayor's house for dinner.
Wow.
I know.
Sam's suddenly become the new york "it" guy of my dreams.
Anyway,don't worry.
I promise I will get to your book A.
S.
A.
P.
Oh,that's okay.
I'm not calling about my book.
Um,I'm calling for advice.
I am in anchorage for a little post-writing r&r, and,long story short, I think I just caught julia's husband with another woman.
Shipwreck julia? Yep.
What should I do? Okay,first of all,"pretty sure" means "reasonable doubt," and if that's the case,you should absolutely butt-outsky.
Really? Honey,if you're not sure what you saw,you didn't see anything.
Oh,no.
I definitely saw something.
Jim was with a naked woman in jack and julia's apartment.
Apparently,he was sculpting her.
That's plausible,I suppose.
Don't you think I'm obligated to say something? I mean,I always wish I knew about graham and kiki earlier.
Look,if julia was a close friend, I'd tell you to say something, but you hardly know this woman.
I guess it cou have been as innocent as he said.
Sure.
He's a sculptor,after all.
He's probably seen a million naked women.
Yeah.
Hey,unlike jack.
What? I just found out that he's only slept with three people,including me.
Three? Including you? Mm-hmm.
Wow.
You didn't tell him your number,did you? He didn't ask.
Phew! Oh,what are you phewing? It's not like it's a scary number or anything.
Oh,sorry,honey.
Oh! Got to run! Our stretch just pulled up.
Okay.
Aah!Aah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you.
It's just I couldn't sleep.
Me neither.
Took me years to get used to sleeping with buzz snoring all the time.
Now I can't sleep without it.
Go figure.
You want some tea? Okay.
What? I remember this one time buzz took me fishing.
He kept nodding off in the boat, and every time he did,he'd start snoring,like -- It was so loud.
He'd wake himself up,and then he'd be all "what the hell's that?" And the best part is,when I told him it was him, he absolutely refused to believe me.
He always was a pigheaded horse's ass.
Yeah,he's pretty stubborn,all right.
He never once gave up on getting to know me, even when I didn't know myself.
He may have screwed up a few times, but I always knew his heart was in the right place.
What are you doing here? I thought you'd be with patrick.
So did I.
Guess we were all wrong.
What happened? I slept with ivan,and it kind of changed everything.
Well,sex definitely has a way of doing that.
It was always great th patrick,but wow.
Ivan really understands a woman's body.
Great sex can be great and all but the physical part gets real old real fast unless you have a deeper connection.
That's what surprised me -- our connection.
When I kissed patrick,all I kept thinking about was ivan.
This must be hard.
I feel awful.
Listen,people change.
In the end,you got to follow your heart.
Hey! How was your trip? Oh,it was,uhinteresting.
Yeah? Great.
Hey,I'm hungry.
Are you hungry? Yeah,I'm starving,actually.
I was on the road all day, and there's no good places to stop.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I should have made something, but I got caught up doing research and stuff.
Oh.
It's all right.
We can just to the chieftain.
Yeah? Okay.
Where did I leave my jacket? Okay,that's enough tv.
It's 4:00.
Time to get dressed.
Come on! Hop to! Oh,look at my big boy! Come to mama! Did you not get dressed today? Why should I? Obviously nobody cares what I do anymore.
What are you talking about? I don't belong anywhere.
That puppy's taken my place with you.
Ivan's taken my place with annie.
And it's all my fault.
I know I acted like a jerk when I lost my memory, and I pushed everyone away.
No wonder you both replaced me.
Don't be such a baby,patrick.
You're an adult,so start acting like one.
For the record,I am your mother, and I love you,and I always will.
And if you're so upset about losing annie,then do something.
Jack: Don't worry.
I'm 99% sure I left it at the post office when I came here earlier to pick up a package.
Well,good luck finding it now.
If jerome was anywhere near it,you can kiss that coat goodbye.
Surprise! What? Who is this for? It's for you,for finishing your book.
Oh! Oh "congratulations,author" what's that other little part say? Oh.
"Welcome back,patrick.
" We couldn't throw a big party without acknowledging the return of our favorite innkeeper.
This is so amazing.
I am so touched.
And,jerome,I am so sorry.
You know I was only joking about that whole coat thing,right? Well,I happen to have a very fair 24-hour rule when it comes to finders-keepers.
I am not a total barbarian,you know.
Cheers so did we really get you? Oh,I can honestly say I've never been more surprised in my whole life.
Congrats! Oh,mai.
Thank you.
Oh,marin,look.
Look who it is.
Surprise.
Sorry for being late.
I got lost.
Let me make up to you buying you a drink Um,ginger ale.
Marin? Uh,I' have a vodka on the rocks.
I am so happy to see you again.
You too.
I'm so glad that jack invited me.
Yeah.
I got to say,I really enjoyed it when jim and I stayed over.
I mean,not that you had much choice in the matter.
Oh,please.
It was fun.
Well,thanks again for everything.
My line of work's pretty man-centric, so I don't get the chance to make a lot of girlfriends.
So it was nice to have somebody to open up to.
Well,it was a pleasure.
You know,that night was like this great turning point for us.
I think you guys buying jim's piece really helped inspire him again.
He's been in one of these intense creative periods.
I haven't seen him like this in years.
Really? Well,that's great.
Yeah,yeah,it is.
He just sold three new pieces.
The only downside is he's been working so hard, I've hardly seen him the last few weeks.
Oh,that's good.
I mean,that -- that he's so busy and everything.
I-I guess he's working on something this weekend,huh? Actually,jim flew to portland on friday.
He's spending a few days with his mom.
She hasn't been well.
Oh.
Wow.
He is quite Aguy.
I was thinking,what if we skipped this thing tonight and cuddled up on the couch instead? But I promised to make an appearance.
I know,but we've been making appearances nonstop for the past few days.
Still recovering from that basketball thing we went to.
Jane,we had free floor tickets to a knicks game.
Do you have any idea how much those cost? No,and,frankly,I don't care.
I am tired of sharing you with the rest of the world.
Let's stay home and have a little playoff me of our own.
We can'T.
I'm the guest of honor.
Besides,it's a good cause.
I really think this whole "clean street" campaign's a great idea.
Of course you do.
You work for the sanitation department.
Now.
But who knows? All these little appearances may lead to some big business opportunities.
Isn't that the whole networking thing you're always telling me about? Since when do you listen to me? Come on.
It'll be fun.
And they're giving away free t-shirts.
Which one do you like? I thought you hated wearing ties.
Well,I got to look good for my public,right? Hey.
Hi.
Patrick,I just want to -- annie,listen,I -- you go.
I didn't get a chance to tell you earlier, but in spite of everything that's happened, I just want you to know, I'm really glad you're home.
Thanks for saying that.
I made something for you.
I've been taking a cake-decorating class in mitexi.
I used your favorite colors.
I guess someone must have eaten some of these already.
Hello,patrick ivan.
Delicious.
May have this dance,fair maiden? Umsure.
* First hits your hands touches your face * * though it's uncomfortable * can I steal this man? * Though it is awkward days leave the night * what's up,coach? I caught jim with another woman at the apartment in anchorage.
What? I wasn't gonna say anything because I wasn't sure, but th julia mentions that he was in portland with his sick mother, which is obviously a lie and incredibly low,if you ask me.
Man.
I didn't want to know this.
I had to get it off my chest.
Great,so now I have it on my chest.
What should I do? Do you think i should tell her? No.
You can't tell her.
It's none of our businesS.
Maybe they have an open relationship or something.
Marin: Why would he lie about being in portland? Jack: I don't know.
I don't want to know.
We should mind our own business.
Marin: You're right.
It's not our place to say anything.
Exactly.
* I don't know why he would talk to look away * * it must be something wrong with me * * there's nothing that i won't believe * Patrick: Hey,that's it,ivan.
I want you to leave my fiancée alone right now.
She's not your fiancée any more,patrick.
You sold her ring to go to new york and told me to go for her,remember? Patrick: I remember.
But now I take it bacK.
Ivan: Sorry,you can't do that.
Patrick: It's not fair for you to take advantage of her.
I know how you operate.
And annie deserves better than a player like you.
Ivan: I'm not going to give her up because you say so.
Patrick: Oh,yeah? Ivan: Yeah.
You're right not to challenge me.
My reflexes are much faster than any one.
The old me probably would have agreed with you but the now me doesn't really give a flying crap! Patrick,stop thiS.
If you want to stop,you're going to have to fight mE.
Come on,buddy.
No hard feelings,okay? You guy having fun tonight or what? Hmm? Sam: YeaH.
It's going great.
Yeah,great.
All right,all right.
Awesome.
Hey,i'll be right back,okay? Sam: Okay.
Jane: Should we slip out before he comes back? Sam: We can't leave yet.
The promotions guy is going to be right back.
Besides,i haven't gotten my free t-shirt.
Jane: I bet you they already handed them out.
Oh,yes,yes.
The time has come for the free t-shirt giveaway contest.
Let's give it up for our favourite local hero and guest judge,sam soloway.
now,ladies and gentlemen,the trashy cancans.
Get to judging.
What are you doing in here? Going through every one's pockets? Could you just leave me be,please? Just for oncE.
What's wrong with you? You don't look so good.
I'm finE.
You don't look fine.
You looK clammY.
Your face looks funny.
I'm fine.
FinE.
Why do you always have to be such a pig-headed horse's ass? What? Come on,old man.
Let's go home.
I'll make you some of my wellness soup.
Jane: You know what the biggest surprise is? It's not the hero parT.
No.
I always knew sam was a hero.
I just never knew he was a guy like every other guy.
I guess you can marry a person and till never really know them.
* When you wake up in the morning alone * * wish you had a reason * Get out of here.
Lions can mate up to 50 times a day? Jack: I'm not kidding.
I read it somewhere.
No wonder they're called kings of the forest.
Marin: Oh,god.
This cake is so good.
Does anybody want another piece? Actually,I don't know if it's all the mating talk or what but i'm suddenly feeling very warm.
Yeah? You want to get some fresh air? Yeah.
They're such a nice couple.
Jack: Yeah.
And I so feel for them.
The prospects of getting pregnant can be so daunting sometimes.
Jim and i are actually talking about trying sooN.
It just feels like the right time.
??? Jack: Marin saw jim with another woman when she was in anchorage yesterday.
Marin: I am so sorry.
I didn't know if i should say something or noT.
I don't know the situation and i wasn't sure.
God.
There I was going on and on and on about how great things are between us.
I feel like such an ass! Jack: He's the ass,not you.
Did she have dark hair? Marin: I guess.
I don't know.
I didn't really get a good look at her.
Yeah.
And what did he say,that he was sculpting her or something? Marin: I don't feel-- i-- i really think you should talk to jim about thiS.
Jack: Is it okay that i said something? I should have known.
And this isn't the first time jim's cheated on mE.
Or the last probablY.
I'm glad you told me.
