The O.C. (2003) s04e05 Episode Script
The Sleeping Beauty
Previously on The O.
C.
I am officially giving up men.
You can't live without a man, even for a week.
I will not bat an eyelash at a man, and you will stay out of trouble.
Solar panels on all our dormitories or we revolt.
I wanna give you room to do what you're doing, because it's pretty amazing.
If you don't hear from me, it's not because I don't love you.
It's because I do.
The only way to get a divorce is if one of us was unfaithful.
I didn't think you'd sign if you knew the truth.
Getting mixed up in other people's lives and helping them out of Jams seems to be what you do.
Bollywood, huh? I didn't know you're a world-cinema buff, especially at 2:30 a.
m.
- What are you doing up? - Had a dream.
Summer was marrying Ralph Nader.
I was playing the marimba.
- Good gig.
Why don't you call her? - I'm giving her space, remember? I promised myself I'd wait at least a week before calling.
- What are they dancing about? - This guy Just saw his girlfriend's ankle.
- You think it's time to talk? - Nobody ever died of insomnia.
Fine.
I'm in the mood for a chaste Hindu love story with lots of needless dancing.
Seth, go to bed.
No can do.
If you're awake, I'm awake.
- Come on.
Love is - Nice.
Thank you.
You know, you'd be a lot sharper if you didn't sleep on the couch.
You know, maybe you should invest in some less comfortable furniture.
Why don't you chew on that for a while? - Morning, all.
- Hey, how'd it go? I'll get it.
Five feet, glassy.
And I got that skinflint Sweetman to pledge 30,000 to the PD's Youth Outreach Program.
They are so lucky that you are organixing that event.
You are amaxing.
- What do you need? - I Just need a slogan for NewMatch.
So far, your son has come up with "Love is nice" and "Love, schmuv.
" Love is a smoke made with the fumes of sighs.
Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes.
Taylor, that's beautiful.
Shakespeare.
Old Bill's always good for a line.
Julie left this in my car.
I was in the neighborhood, thought I'd drop it by in case you needed it.
- Oh, thank you.
- I'm gonna go give Ryan some coffee.
I can do that.
Hello? Easy, girl.
Taylor, what are you doing here? I'm Just bringing Kirsten some papers.
This is for you.
Oh, thanks, but actually I'm kind of not drinking coffee right now.
Well, Ryan, I Just wanted to thank you again for helping me with my husband, and I am - You don't have to pay me back.
- Are you kidding? If it wasn't for you, I would be in France right now, trapped in a loveless marriage.
You saved my life and I am at your command.
Anything you want.
Anything.
Could hand me that shirt.
You Joker.
Here.
I'm serious.
You're not getting out of this so easily.
You know, in some cultures, they say that if you save someone's life you're bound to them forever.
Bye.
Here she comes.
You know, it's odd, but I never appreciated how funny Ryan is.
Life, such a Journey.
Well, have a nice day.
She said Ryan was funny.
Oh, my God.
- Wake up, wake up.
- What are you doing? It's 8:00.
Get out before my daughter wakes up.
Get up.
Oh, my God.
Are you my new daddy? Good morning.
I'm your mom's personal trainer.
We were doing a morning workout.
Oh, really? How much do you charge for that? - Well - Save it, okay? If my mom wants to club five nights a week, sleep till noon and hook up with some 25-year-old Bavarian beefcake it Just means she's got less time for me.
- The door's that way, Hans.
- Okay.
Kaitlin, you are having breakfast alone? Yeah, why? Who else would be here? No one.
Although my new personal trainer was going to come over.
You know, we single women have to stay in shape.
Well, I'm sure he'll give you a very good workout.
Oh, no.
- Seth.
Good, you're here.
- Actually, I was Just You might wanna sit down.
I have huge news and a favor to ask you.
You like Ryan, and you want my help convincing him to date you? You said he was funny.
It's a giveaway.
I know, it's craxy.
I mean, I've always thought, cute guy.
Good for a night of rough-and-tumble fun.
- It's not like we have anything in common.
- Ignore it.
It's Just gas.
When he helped me with my husband and kissed me it was like Dorothy landing in Ox.
Everything Just popped into Technicolor.
- You think I don't know what that means? - I said: Meaning, "That Taylor, she is so pathetic.
Someone's a bit nice to her, she becomes obsessed with them.
First me, and then her French husband when he lent her a subway ticket, now Ryan.
" - Well, you know, isn't it kind of true? - So what? Yes, I have a psychological predilection to become romantically attached to men who are nice to me due to the fact that I was raised by a mother who practiced emotional terrorism.
Does that mean that if love does come into my life, I should deny it? What kind of person would that make me? What kind of life? What do you want me to do? - Find out if he's ready to start dating.
- Okay.
- Hello.
- Hey, you're doing a great job.
- Thanks.
- You finish the movie? - Which one? - Are you ready to date again? - What? - Simple question.
I have no idea.
Why? Okay.
Cool.
He's not sure.
Listen, you don't wanna get involved with him right now.
He's slept, like, four hours in the last week.
He's a mess.
Really? Interesting.
Excuse me.
Can you not do that now? - Excuse me? - We're supposed to clean, buddy.
- I'm in the middle of something.
- What's this one's name? Don't touch that.
They're part of an experiment.
You're a Janitor? We could Just go, Betty.
We'll come back later.
Yes, Lou, we should go.
You're gonna hold the ball gently, like you're holding ice cream.
- I stopped eating ice cream.
- What do you eat? Nonfat non-dairy yogurt.
Fine, hold the ball like nonfat yogurt.
Okay.
But if I serve this one in, you have to go out with me.
Kaitlin, how many times I gotta say this? You're 15.
So a kiss is still out of the question? Just serve the ball.
There it is.
Over the net.
I was wondering if maybe you wanted to squeexe me in for a training session tonight.
Easy, girl.
Hold on a second.
Eye on the ball.
Come on.
Kaitlin, you didn't tell me you had a new instructor.
- Hi, I'm Julie Cooper, Kaitlin's mother.
- How are you doing? Spencer.
Your daughter, she's got a lot of potential.
- So you play? - Oh, no, I used to but I was actually thinking about getting back into it.
Hey, you're early.
I wanted to see the new place up and running and give you this.
- So Julie already took off, huh? - She had to pick up Kaitlin at tennis.
- It's a Wonder Woman paperweight.
- Seth gave me his employee discount.
Well, it may end up being a souvenir.
What are you talking about? That woman I told you about in Laguna that has a high-end dating service? - She's gonna retire, sell you her client list.
- She got another offer, four times ours.
We don't have enough money to counter which means that all of this could be short-lived.
What about taking on a backer? I could put you in touch with the donors.
I'm playing golf with Gordon Bullit.
- The oil tycoon? - Yeah.
Didn't he go to Jail for tax evasion? Yeah, but he's out now.
I had dinner with him last month.
He's really not a bad guy for being a total pig.
I don't know.
We Just wanted to do this ourselves.
Besides, having a silent partner, they always have an opinion.
It's my impression he's got a lot of fish to fry.
So I doubt he'd be involved in your day-to-day, but I could ask him.
Okay, thanks.
Clear! Did you find out what they were doing with them? Does it matter? If it wasn't evil, they wouldn't have to keep them locked in cages like animals.
- What's the plan again? - The plan? To set them loose and then lead them to the forest, the forest across the river.
- Lead them how? - I brought my flute.
Your flute? Like the Pied Piper? No, scientific study shows that music actually triggers a reaction inside the pleasure center of the rabbit's brain.
Check this out.
Feel his heartbeat, it's calmer.
It's Just to keep them calm, but trust me soon as they feel the free air on their face, they're gonna be leading us.
Hi.
You're a fat bunny.
Your name is Pancakes.
Did you know that? Your name's Pancakes.
Hey, come here.
When I open this door, we got about - Are you ready to do this? - Yeah.
Welcome to liberty, my friends.
Come on, Pancakes! - Taylor? - Ryan, you can't sleep, can you? - Oh, you poor thing.
- It's 3 in the morning.
Seth told me everything.
But lucky for you Junior year, I won the state science fair for my study in sleep disorders.
I can help you.
Well, that's really nice, but you know, I'm fine.
- Middle of the night, you're awake.
- So are you.
I never sleep more than four hours.
It's unproductive.
Ryan, don't you see? This is how I'll pay you back.
Yeah, you know what? Actually, I'm kind of tired.
Stop lying.
I want you to meet me tomorrow morning at 8 at the diner.
And I won't take no for an answer.
- Fine.
- Ryan? - Yeah? - Good night.
Good night, Taylor.
Indie 103.
1, "Swords of A Thousand Men.
" That is the guy that sings "Who Killed Bambi?" the song I can't play because there's way too many cuss words in it to take out.
I'll try it someday.
Right now Okay, Just relax.
Be normal.
You can do this.
- Good morning, Ryan.
- Hi.
Oh, you poor thing, you look exhausted.
Look, I don't know what Seth told you, but I'm fine.
- Really.
And I've got work, so - Did you sleep at all last night? - No, but - And how about the night before? Ryan, insomnia can go on for months.
What's the harm in letting me try and help you? - Fire away.
- Okay.
So first off, how much of this is related to Marissa? I'm really sorry to ask, but if that's what's going on, I think we need to know.
Well, I need to know.
It's not about her.
It started after Thanksgiving.
- Right after volchok turned himself in? - Yeah, I guess.
Why? - Ryan, I'm Just spit-balling here - Yeah.
but this is the guy you wanted revenge on, right? So you probably went to bed every night thinking, "I'll get him tomorrow.
" But now that purpose is gone.
So what's the point in going to bed if there's no point in waking up? - I hadn't thought about that.
- Oh, my God.
I am such an awesome sleep therapist.
And this is only our first session.
Yeah.
Listen, I better go.
- Yes.
- But thanks.
This was good.
- Well, my pleasure.
Yes.
Bye.
Ready? - Good shot, Julie.
- Thank you, Spencer.
This was supposed to be my tennis lesson.
Don't you think it's fun to do mother-daughter stuff? Oh, please.
Come on, keep your eye on the ball, Kaitlin.
Let's go.
There it is.
- Do you mind? That's the third time.
- Sorry.
You all right? This will help with the serve.
Right, I think I really strained it.
I'm strong.
You're strong.
I'm pretty impressed.
Perfect.
- Where's my racket? - Oh, that's weird.
I'm ready when you are.
Well, I get that she did a fine Job on that whole Middle East thing but I'm sorry.
Madeleine Albright? Not hot.
- Well, Gordon - I told you to call me Bullit.
Well, Bullit, call me craxy but maybe Madeleine Albright doesn't need to be hot.
That's an interesting point of view.
Your donation to the PD's Outreach Program was really generous.
Thanks.
You called at the right time.
I was in bed with those Arab fellas.
That's a metaphor.
Them boys cooked the books on me, so I sold out, left them high and dry.
They never should've messed with old Bullit.
Alrighty.
Look at that.
Shiite Muslim.
The point is, I'm cash rich right now and don't know what to do with all the stuff.
- Really? - Cigar? - No, thanks.
- They're Cuban.
Commie bastards do one thing right.
My wife started a business.
She and her partner are thinking of taking on investors.
You could talk to them about it at the benefit, get the details.
I don't think I'm going tomorrow, Sandy.
- See, my date went back to her husband.
- I'm gonna do you a favor.
You should talk to my wife, because that's the business she's in.
- And her partner is newly single.
- She hot? And I was into recycling way before it was cool.
Al Gore, he got half that stuff from a paper I wrote in sixth grade.
I Just don't make a stink because he's doing good work.
When are you allowed to call Summer again? - 10:03 tomorrow.
Am I driving you craxy? - No.
Hi, Seth.
Ryan, I need your keys.
I have to get your room ready.
- What? - I'm Ryan's sleep therapist.
Right.
That's your tacos.
- Because you can't.
- Why not? I didn't tell you about Ryan's sleep problem so you could use it for seduction.
- I'm not.
- Are you a sleep therapist? Are you certified? Do you have a little certificate from the American Institute of Sleep place? What if I help him? He wins, I win.
They call it win-win.
- It doesn't matter, you can't.
- Say what you're really thinking, Seth.
Everything okay? - Yeah.
- Great.
Could you go get me some pico de gallo? Yeah, sure.
- You don't think I'm good enough.
- That's craxy.
"She's so funny, what a kook.
But her and Ryan? Please.
" - You need help, do you know that? - "I mean, she's no Marissa.
" Exactly.
Here you go.
- Thanks.
I gotta get back to the shop.
- Yeah, I'd better go too.
- Hey, Amber.
Is it Seth? - Your boyfriend didn't call.
- I thought he was giving you space.
- He is.
Doesn't mean I can't call him.
Oldest trick in the book.
"I'm giving you space so you can call first and look like the needy one.
" - Seth isn't doing that.
- Of course not.
But the dean's office called.
They wanna see you tomorrow.
- What? Did they say what for? - Nope.
Hey, did you hear someone set free the bunnies in one of the science labs? Really? Well, maybe someone thought it was inhumane.
Maybe someone didn't know they were only being studied for their socialixation patterns and lived a pretty cushy life.
By the way, there's a rabbit under your bed.
- Che - I got the call too.
That scientist picked us out of Facebook.
The chiseled features of freedom, not that hard to recognixe.
- What are we gonna do? - Breathe, caterpillar.
It's all gonna be okay.
I went through this when they tried to frame me for flooding the trustee dinner.
- You did flood the trustee dinner.
- They didn't know that.
Flax and oats? - I don't think I can lie.
- Of course you can't no more than the wind could lie, or a tree.
I have to go write a song.
I Just came by to tell you that I'm with you until the end.
But Che, what if they kick us out? Then, in the words of the great Chief Aupumut: "I will sing my death song and die like a warrior going home.
" Pancakes? - I thought we were going to the beach.
- In a minute.
I Just want him to see me in my bikini first.
- You mean you want him to molest you.
- Shut up.
I have real feelings for this guy Oh, my God.
Looks like your mom has some feelings too, for that guy's butt.
Dude, why are you talking about that guy's butt? - Yo, shut up, man.
- You're so gay sometimes.
Oh, my God.
- Welcome home, Ryan.
- Taylor.
Taylor, Taylor, this Are you wearing paJamas? Oh, yes.
Many people sleep better with a warm body beside them.
But don't worry.
It's completely nonsexual.
Yeah, I gotta ask, though.
Is this? I mean, you don't like me, do you? - Yeah, I like you.
We're friends.
- No, I mean the My goodness, no.
No, no, no.
I Just, you know, I wanna pay you back.
And I happen to be really interested in sleep disorders.
- Okay.
- Great.
Shall we start with the massage? What the? Hey.
- What are you doing here? - Me? What are you doing here? Bringing Ryan coffee, and I live here.
Did you stay the night? No.
Well, yeah.
Kind of.
Can I Just have one of these? Did you put in any sweetener? I read aspartame can cause brain tumors quicker than you can say "Jack Robinson.
" - Hey - Taylor.
Well, I was Just helping Ryan with his sleep.
Have you seen him? He was gone when I woke up.
Hey, I went for a Jog.
- Yeah.
- This isn't what it looks like.
Totally.
- Yeah, you know - Well, kind of.
- We did sleep in the same bed.
- No, you slept in the bed.
I read in the chair all night.
This is too weird for this early in the morning.
I'm Just gonna Here.
Well, that was good.
So you really didn't sleep at all? Was it because I snored? Mom wanted me to get an operation for a deviated septum.
You didn't snore.
We should talk about what happened so I can adJust the plan.
Taylor, look, I appreciate everything you've done, I really do.
And I think you're probably right about volchok.
But I also think it's something I need to go through on my own.
So let's call it even, okay? - Okay.
- All right.
I'm gonna go Jump in the pool.
So, what, Sandy Just served me up like a piece of meat? How rich is he? Five o'clock would be fine.
- Hi, honey.
- You going on a date? Yes, I'm going to Sandy's delinquent benefit with a man called the Bullit.
Apparently, he owns Texas.
Well, that sounds like fun.
Do you think Mr.
Cohen would mind if I crashed? Yeah, I think that'll be okay.
I'll have to leave you some cab money.
Well, what if I invited a friend who drives? That works too.
It's nice to see you interested in charity.
That's me.
- Ms.
Roberts, the reason we called you - I helped free the bunnies.
I didn't know they were only being studied for how they interacted.
- I know it doesn't excuse it.
- Well, the board appreciates your candor.
Can you tell us who else was involved? No, I'm sorry.
I see.
There have been other acts of political activism this semester that cross the line of legality.
An incident at the Board of Trustees dinner - I wasn't involved in that.
- Do you know who was? Ms.
Roberts, the severity of your punishment will be influenced by how cooperative you are today.
Dean, other deans I really, really love Brown.
I have changed so much here.
But I'm afraid if I tell you who did those other things then I'd be betraying the new me, and I can't do that.
One final question.
- There is still one rabbit missing - I don't know anything about that.
Taylor, did you take my lip gloss with the bee pheromones in it? It's on the dresser.
- Are you okay? - Yeah, peachy.
Talk.
Okay, what do you do when you like a boy and he barely knows you're alive and you already pretended to be his sleep therapist and I'm out of options.
Okay.
Well, this may sound a little weird, but try dressing up fabulous and going to a place where you know you'll run into him.
- That's it? - That's it.
- That really works? - Almost every time.
And I mean, touching his arm when you guys are talking is always good and dancing and body contact.
And laugh at his Jokes.
I mean, even if they're not that funny.
I do that already.
Okay, what else? You could walk in front of him.
I mean, if he's a butt guy.
- I don't know if he's a butt guy.
- It can't hurt.
- I mean, girl, you got a great butt.
- You are such a sweetie.
Tell me more.
I Just wanna thank you again on behalf of the entire Public Defender's Office.
So please, drink, dance and have a great time.
Thank you.
Hello.
- This is wonderful.
- Thank you.
So how's Julie and the Bullit doing? See for yourself.
So there was this big white-tailed Texas deer coming across there so I wheel around like Dick Cheney and go: I got him.
- Hello, Ryan.
- Taylor, hi, you look I look nice? - Nice.
That's the word I was looking for.
- Well, so do you.
- Would you like to dance? - Actually, I'm not much of a dancer.
- It's probably shocking.
- Maybe the exercise will tire you out.
Not that this is therapy.
No, we're not doing that anymore.
It's Just, you know, fun.
- Yeah, okay.
- Okay.
Okay, Just - He wants to talk numbers Monday.
- Who? The Bullit.
He's getting drinks.
But he's in, Kiki.
He loves NewMatch.
- That's great.
- I know.
- Mom? - Kaitlin.
Look at who I brought with me.
What are you doing here? You said your mom told you to bring me.
- What's going on? - Is that your date? - You and I will talk later.
Bullit, this is - What the hell are you doing here, boy? - You know each other? - You're on a date with my dad? - What? - What? Oh, God.
- You ditching my party already? - I was thinking about calling Summer.
I'm not supposed to call her till 10:03 but technically, it is 10:03 on the East Coast, so that's not cheating, is it? Sorry, Seth.
That's a yeah, that'd be cheating.
Hey, did I see Taylor leaving the pool house this morning? Yeah.
She's pretending to be Ryan's sleep therapist so he falls in love with her.
Well, that's new.
That would explain the way they're dancing in there.
- I hope it works out.
- You're supporting this seduction plot? Well, you don't have to be a shrink to see that Ryan's still working through things.
You know, I think he could use the human connection.
Yeah, but those two, I don't know.
Well, they're not the most obvious couple.
But then, neither were you and Summer, once upon a time.
And Taylor thinks Ryan is funny.
- No, we did not hate you.
- Oh, you totally hated me.
You were probably the president of the We Hate Taylor Club.
- I was the secretary.
I took the notes.
- Ryan, you made a real Joke.
Well, a pretty bad one.
But I made a real Joke.
Thank you, but don't tell anyone.
You want a drink? - That would be nice.
- Okay.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Saw you dancing with Taylor.
- Is that look supposed to mean something? - Craxier things have happened.
- Nothing I can recall this instant - I don't think so.
Ask yourself why.
She's smart, she's funny.
Dude, Just forget about it, okay? I'm not gonna date Taylor.
I was Just Excuse me.
Taylor, Taylor.
Hold on.
Let me explain.
I think you were pretty clear, Ryan.
And yes, I lied when you asked me if I liked you, but What was I even thinking? I mean, you and me? - It's Just I must be totally craxy.
- You're not craxy, okay? Ryan, I pretended to be a sleep therapist to seduce you.
- That was craxy.
- Don't worry.
Next week, I'll be obsessed with a guy who gives me change for parking.
What I said has absolutely nothing to do with you, okay? It's Just What? That for the longest time all you could feel was your desire to kill volchok? Now that's gone, so you feel empty? Can't feel anything? Least of all anything for me? - How do you keep doing that? - Doing what? That.
You keep telling me what I'm thinking before I feel it.
Because I think about you.
You know, I want you to be happy.
And I think that, if you gave it a chance, you might feel something too.
Taylor Are you gonna tell me that you really like me as a friend? Maybe.
How does she do that? Do you have any idea what you Just did in there? Screwed up things with your boyfriend? You were all, "I'm off men.
- I'm gonna focus on the new business.
" - That was about business.
That man was going to give us money, money that we need.
Why did you have to hook up with Spencer? I mean, couldn't you see that I liked him? He's 10 years older than you.
And no, I couldn't see that.
- I was flirting.
- You flirt with everybody.
- So do you.
- You're 15 years old.
You're my mother.
I don't have to see guys sneaking down the stairs while I'm trying to eat breakfast.
It makes me wanna barf.
That is completely fair.
Oh, my God, honey.
What is wrong with me? I am so sorry.
It's okay.
Just try to pick one guy.
One that I don't like.
How did you know that Spencer was Bullit's son? - I didn't.
- It was Just coincidence? It's weird.
- Summer, hey.
What are you doing? - Waiting for you.
Have you been talking to the board this whole time? Summer, have I accomplished anything this semester? Are you kidding? Che, there would be no political activism at Brown without you.
- Oh, my God, are you getting kicked out? - No, no, but I think you might be.
- What? - Yeah, they needed a scapegoat.
You said yourself I'm too important to the movement, so - What did you tell them, Che? - Just that you flooded the trustees dinner.
And disabled the maintenance vehicles in October and Well, there was a whole list of stuff.
I was gonna say a couple, but I thought: "If Summer's going down anyways, may as well go down in style" Che, you did all of those things and I protected you.
I know.
And the movement will never forget Shut up about the movement, okay? This is not Cuba.
We are in college.
We have dining cards.
I'm gonna get kicked out.
- Caterpillar - Don't call me that.
Just stay away from me.
Well, fine.
Fine, you'll have your money tomorrow.
Senators.
Well, if it's not the little pot-stirrer.
Have you seen my idiot son? He's probably somewhere banging his head.
Dude, no one cares that he's your son.
You should invest in my mother's business.
Or what? You'll tell everyone what a meanie old Bullit is and I'm gonna have to sit alone at lunch? My mother is awesome.
She ran the Newport Group.
And when she broke up with her fiance, she got his house.
- She'll make you a lot of money.
- Already got a lot of money, squirt.
- Just thought it might be fun.
- Lf that's all you're in for then knowing my mother, it'll be the best investment you've ever made.
- Tired? - Exhausted.
Hey, how did it go with the Bullit? Well, as it turns out, Julie was dating his 25-year-old son.
- That's a weird coincidence.
- That sums it up.
Sandy, mind if I borrow your wife for a second? Come on, blondie, I won't bite.
- Hey, are you ready to go home? - Yeah.
Where's Spencer? I figured you would've made up and he'd be showing you his half volley.
I told him it's over and that if he ever came near you again, I would crush him.
Julie, we're back on.
Bullit wants to come by the office on Monday.
- What? - Apparently, Kaitlin can be quite persuasive.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Yeah, I got game.
- You wanna get some ice cream? - Well, I stopped eating What the hell.
The guy at the ice cream store is so hot.
That's my girl.
- Well, close enough.
- Seth.
Taylor, what are you doing in here? When I had really bad insomnia last year, a Chinese doctor gave me this herbal tea and I thought it might help Ryan sleep.
I would've given it to him before, but I was trying to seduce him, so So why can't you Just give it to him? Because I'm too embarrassed.
You were totally right.
Here I am, getting a divorce.
I'm living like a refugee at Julie's.
Ryan's nice to me, so I fall for him? It's Just totally pathetic.
Just please give that to him.
Wow, I never thought I'd see you quitting.
It's completely hopeless, Seth.
You heard him.
I know, Just you're rolling over like an old dog.
Not the Taylor I remember.
Are you seriously trying to Jedi-mind-trick me? Taylor Townsend, quitter.
I guess I'll Just have to get used to that.
Fine.
- Hello? - Hey.
Hey, Summer, I was Just about to call you.
- Oh, you were? - Yeah.
I wanted to call, but I didn't wanna seem needy.
Are you kidding? I've been wanting to call you all week.
- Seth, you still love me, right? - Of course I do.
What's going on? Well, I got a rabbit.
Okay.
What's its name? Wait, no, let me guess.
- Is it Cycletron? - No.
Are you lying? Is it? Is it Gorgon the Destroyer of Carrots? No.
- Is it Larry? - Larry? You're not Larry.
- Hi.
- Hey.
I brought you some tea.
I'm not trying to be your therapist again.
- I Just thought it might help you sleep.
- Oh, thanks.
- What am I doing? - Hold on.
Look, I gotta say something.
I think you've got this idea that you're this strange person that has to trick people into liking her.
It's not true.
You're amaxing.
- Oh, my God, you Just did it to me.
- Did what? Said exactly what I was feeling.
Well, except for the "amaxing" part.
Well, it's true.
And honestly, you know, I wish I did feel something.
- Kiss me.
- What? I think there's something there.
And I think that, if you kiss me, you'll feel it too.
- I think we already did that.
- No.
You kissed me.
I didn't kiss you.
Come on, Just If you don't feel anything, I will never mention it again.
That's the best deal you'll ever get.
Ask Seth.
Just one kiss.
One kiss.
- One kiss.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
I'm sorry.
Thanks for talking to me.
I really miss you.
- Get some sleep, I'll talk to you tomorrow.
- I love you.
I love you too.
Hey, I figured you'd be up.
C.
I am officially giving up men.
You can't live without a man, even for a week.
I will not bat an eyelash at a man, and you will stay out of trouble.
Solar panels on all our dormitories or we revolt.
I wanna give you room to do what you're doing, because it's pretty amazing.
If you don't hear from me, it's not because I don't love you.
It's because I do.
The only way to get a divorce is if one of us was unfaithful.
I didn't think you'd sign if you knew the truth.
Getting mixed up in other people's lives and helping them out of Jams seems to be what you do.
Bollywood, huh? I didn't know you're a world-cinema buff, especially at 2:30 a.
m.
- What are you doing up? - Had a dream.
Summer was marrying Ralph Nader.
I was playing the marimba.
- Good gig.
Why don't you call her? - I'm giving her space, remember? I promised myself I'd wait at least a week before calling.
- What are they dancing about? - This guy Just saw his girlfriend's ankle.
- You think it's time to talk? - Nobody ever died of insomnia.
Fine.
I'm in the mood for a chaste Hindu love story with lots of needless dancing.
Seth, go to bed.
No can do.
If you're awake, I'm awake.
- Come on.
Love is - Nice.
Thank you.
You know, you'd be a lot sharper if you didn't sleep on the couch.
You know, maybe you should invest in some less comfortable furniture.
Why don't you chew on that for a while? - Morning, all.
- Hey, how'd it go? I'll get it.
Five feet, glassy.
And I got that skinflint Sweetman to pledge 30,000 to the PD's Youth Outreach Program.
They are so lucky that you are organixing that event.
You are amaxing.
- What do you need? - I Just need a slogan for NewMatch.
So far, your son has come up with "Love is nice" and "Love, schmuv.
" Love is a smoke made with the fumes of sighs.
Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes.
Taylor, that's beautiful.
Shakespeare.
Old Bill's always good for a line.
Julie left this in my car.
I was in the neighborhood, thought I'd drop it by in case you needed it.
- Oh, thank you.
- I'm gonna go give Ryan some coffee.
I can do that.
Hello? Easy, girl.
Taylor, what are you doing here? I'm Just bringing Kirsten some papers.
This is for you.
Oh, thanks, but actually I'm kind of not drinking coffee right now.
Well, Ryan, I Just wanted to thank you again for helping me with my husband, and I am - You don't have to pay me back.
- Are you kidding? If it wasn't for you, I would be in France right now, trapped in a loveless marriage.
You saved my life and I am at your command.
Anything you want.
Anything.
Could hand me that shirt.
You Joker.
Here.
I'm serious.
You're not getting out of this so easily.
You know, in some cultures, they say that if you save someone's life you're bound to them forever.
Bye.
Here she comes.
You know, it's odd, but I never appreciated how funny Ryan is.
Life, such a Journey.
Well, have a nice day.
She said Ryan was funny.
Oh, my God.
- Wake up, wake up.
- What are you doing? It's 8:00.
Get out before my daughter wakes up.
Get up.
Oh, my God.
Are you my new daddy? Good morning.
I'm your mom's personal trainer.
We were doing a morning workout.
Oh, really? How much do you charge for that? - Well - Save it, okay? If my mom wants to club five nights a week, sleep till noon and hook up with some 25-year-old Bavarian beefcake it Just means she's got less time for me.
- The door's that way, Hans.
- Okay.
Kaitlin, you are having breakfast alone? Yeah, why? Who else would be here? No one.
Although my new personal trainer was going to come over.
You know, we single women have to stay in shape.
Well, I'm sure he'll give you a very good workout.
Oh, no.
- Seth.
Good, you're here.
- Actually, I was Just You might wanna sit down.
I have huge news and a favor to ask you.
You like Ryan, and you want my help convincing him to date you? You said he was funny.
It's a giveaway.
I know, it's craxy.
I mean, I've always thought, cute guy.
Good for a night of rough-and-tumble fun.
- It's not like we have anything in common.
- Ignore it.
It's Just gas.
When he helped me with my husband and kissed me it was like Dorothy landing in Ox.
Everything Just popped into Technicolor.
- You think I don't know what that means? - I said: Meaning, "That Taylor, she is so pathetic.
Someone's a bit nice to her, she becomes obsessed with them.
First me, and then her French husband when he lent her a subway ticket, now Ryan.
" - Well, you know, isn't it kind of true? - So what? Yes, I have a psychological predilection to become romantically attached to men who are nice to me due to the fact that I was raised by a mother who practiced emotional terrorism.
Does that mean that if love does come into my life, I should deny it? What kind of person would that make me? What kind of life? What do you want me to do? - Find out if he's ready to start dating.
- Okay.
- Hello.
- Hey, you're doing a great job.
- Thanks.
- You finish the movie? - Which one? - Are you ready to date again? - What? - Simple question.
I have no idea.
Why? Okay.
Cool.
He's not sure.
Listen, you don't wanna get involved with him right now.
He's slept, like, four hours in the last week.
He's a mess.
Really? Interesting.
Excuse me.
Can you not do that now? - Excuse me? - We're supposed to clean, buddy.
- I'm in the middle of something.
- What's this one's name? Don't touch that.
They're part of an experiment.
You're a Janitor? We could Just go, Betty.
We'll come back later.
Yes, Lou, we should go.
You're gonna hold the ball gently, like you're holding ice cream.
- I stopped eating ice cream.
- What do you eat? Nonfat non-dairy yogurt.
Fine, hold the ball like nonfat yogurt.
Okay.
But if I serve this one in, you have to go out with me.
Kaitlin, how many times I gotta say this? You're 15.
So a kiss is still out of the question? Just serve the ball.
There it is.
Over the net.
I was wondering if maybe you wanted to squeexe me in for a training session tonight.
Easy, girl.
Hold on a second.
Eye on the ball.
Come on.
Kaitlin, you didn't tell me you had a new instructor.
- Hi, I'm Julie Cooper, Kaitlin's mother.
- How are you doing? Spencer.
Your daughter, she's got a lot of potential.
- So you play? - Oh, no, I used to but I was actually thinking about getting back into it.
Hey, you're early.
I wanted to see the new place up and running and give you this.
- So Julie already took off, huh? - She had to pick up Kaitlin at tennis.
- It's a Wonder Woman paperweight.
- Seth gave me his employee discount.
Well, it may end up being a souvenir.
What are you talking about? That woman I told you about in Laguna that has a high-end dating service? - She's gonna retire, sell you her client list.
- She got another offer, four times ours.
We don't have enough money to counter which means that all of this could be short-lived.
What about taking on a backer? I could put you in touch with the donors.
I'm playing golf with Gordon Bullit.
- The oil tycoon? - Yeah.
Didn't he go to Jail for tax evasion? Yeah, but he's out now.
I had dinner with him last month.
He's really not a bad guy for being a total pig.
I don't know.
We Just wanted to do this ourselves.
Besides, having a silent partner, they always have an opinion.
It's my impression he's got a lot of fish to fry.
So I doubt he'd be involved in your day-to-day, but I could ask him.
Okay, thanks.
Clear! Did you find out what they were doing with them? Does it matter? If it wasn't evil, they wouldn't have to keep them locked in cages like animals.
- What's the plan again? - The plan? To set them loose and then lead them to the forest, the forest across the river.
- Lead them how? - I brought my flute.
Your flute? Like the Pied Piper? No, scientific study shows that music actually triggers a reaction inside the pleasure center of the rabbit's brain.
Check this out.
Feel his heartbeat, it's calmer.
It's Just to keep them calm, but trust me soon as they feel the free air on their face, they're gonna be leading us.
Hi.
You're a fat bunny.
Your name is Pancakes.
Did you know that? Your name's Pancakes.
Hey, come here.
When I open this door, we got about - Are you ready to do this? - Yeah.
Welcome to liberty, my friends.
Come on, Pancakes! - Taylor? - Ryan, you can't sleep, can you? - Oh, you poor thing.
- It's 3 in the morning.
Seth told me everything.
But lucky for you Junior year, I won the state science fair for my study in sleep disorders.
I can help you.
Well, that's really nice, but you know, I'm fine.
- Middle of the night, you're awake.
- So are you.
I never sleep more than four hours.
It's unproductive.
Ryan, don't you see? This is how I'll pay you back.
Yeah, you know what? Actually, I'm kind of tired.
Stop lying.
I want you to meet me tomorrow morning at 8 at the diner.
And I won't take no for an answer.
- Fine.
- Ryan? - Yeah? - Good night.
Good night, Taylor.
Indie 103.
1, "Swords of A Thousand Men.
" That is the guy that sings "Who Killed Bambi?" the song I can't play because there's way too many cuss words in it to take out.
I'll try it someday.
Right now Okay, Just relax.
Be normal.
You can do this.
- Good morning, Ryan.
- Hi.
Oh, you poor thing, you look exhausted.
Look, I don't know what Seth told you, but I'm fine.
- Really.
And I've got work, so - Did you sleep at all last night? - No, but - And how about the night before? Ryan, insomnia can go on for months.
What's the harm in letting me try and help you? - Fire away.
- Okay.
So first off, how much of this is related to Marissa? I'm really sorry to ask, but if that's what's going on, I think we need to know.
Well, I need to know.
It's not about her.
It started after Thanksgiving.
- Right after volchok turned himself in? - Yeah, I guess.
Why? - Ryan, I'm Just spit-balling here - Yeah.
but this is the guy you wanted revenge on, right? So you probably went to bed every night thinking, "I'll get him tomorrow.
" But now that purpose is gone.
So what's the point in going to bed if there's no point in waking up? - I hadn't thought about that.
- Oh, my God.
I am such an awesome sleep therapist.
And this is only our first session.
Yeah.
Listen, I better go.
- Yes.
- But thanks.
This was good.
- Well, my pleasure.
Yes.
Bye.
Ready? - Good shot, Julie.
- Thank you, Spencer.
This was supposed to be my tennis lesson.
Don't you think it's fun to do mother-daughter stuff? Oh, please.
Come on, keep your eye on the ball, Kaitlin.
Let's go.
There it is.
- Do you mind? That's the third time.
- Sorry.
You all right? This will help with the serve.
Right, I think I really strained it.
I'm strong.
You're strong.
I'm pretty impressed.
Perfect.
- Where's my racket? - Oh, that's weird.
I'm ready when you are.
Well, I get that she did a fine Job on that whole Middle East thing but I'm sorry.
Madeleine Albright? Not hot.
- Well, Gordon - I told you to call me Bullit.
Well, Bullit, call me craxy but maybe Madeleine Albright doesn't need to be hot.
That's an interesting point of view.
Your donation to the PD's Outreach Program was really generous.
Thanks.
You called at the right time.
I was in bed with those Arab fellas.
That's a metaphor.
Them boys cooked the books on me, so I sold out, left them high and dry.
They never should've messed with old Bullit.
Alrighty.
Look at that.
Shiite Muslim.
The point is, I'm cash rich right now and don't know what to do with all the stuff.
- Really? - Cigar? - No, thanks.
- They're Cuban.
Commie bastards do one thing right.
My wife started a business.
She and her partner are thinking of taking on investors.
You could talk to them about it at the benefit, get the details.
I don't think I'm going tomorrow, Sandy.
- See, my date went back to her husband.
- I'm gonna do you a favor.
You should talk to my wife, because that's the business she's in.
- And her partner is newly single.
- She hot? And I was into recycling way before it was cool.
Al Gore, he got half that stuff from a paper I wrote in sixth grade.
I Just don't make a stink because he's doing good work.
When are you allowed to call Summer again? - 10:03 tomorrow.
Am I driving you craxy? - No.
Hi, Seth.
Ryan, I need your keys.
I have to get your room ready.
- What? - I'm Ryan's sleep therapist.
Right.
That's your tacos.
- Because you can't.
- Why not? I didn't tell you about Ryan's sleep problem so you could use it for seduction.
- I'm not.
- Are you a sleep therapist? Are you certified? Do you have a little certificate from the American Institute of Sleep place? What if I help him? He wins, I win.
They call it win-win.
- It doesn't matter, you can't.
- Say what you're really thinking, Seth.
Everything okay? - Yeah.
- Great.
Could you go get me some pico de gallo? Yeah, sure.
- You don't think I'm good enough.
- That's craxy.
"She's so funny, what a kook.
But her and Ryan? Please.
" - You need help, do you know that? - "I mean, she's no Marissa.
" Exactly.
Here you go.
- Thanks.
I gotta get back to the shop.
- Yeah, I'd better go too.
- Hey, Amber.
Is it Seth? - Your boyfriend didn't call.
- I thought he was giving you space.
- He is.
Doesn't mean I can't call him.
Oldest trick in the book.
"I'm giving you space so you can call first and look like the needy one.
" - Seth isn't doing that.
- Of course not.
But the dean's office called.
They wanna see you tomorrow.
- What? Did they say what for? - Nope.
Hey, did you hear someone set free the bunnies in one of the science labs? Really? Well, maybe someone thought it was inhumane.
Maybe someone didn't know they were only being studied for their socialixation patterns and lived a pretty cushy life.
By the way, there's a rabbit under your bed.
- Che - I got the call too.
That scientist picked us out of Facebook.
The chiseled features of freedom, not that hard to recognixe.
- What are we gonna do? - Breathe, caterpillar.
It's all gonna be okay.
I went through this when they tried to frame me for flooding the trustee dinner.
- You did flood the trustee dinner.
- They didn't know that.
Flax and oats? - I don't think I can lie.
- Of course you can't no more than the wind could lie, or a tree.
I have to go write a song.
I Just came by to tell you that I'm with you until the end.
But Che, what if they kick us out? Then, in the words of the great Chief Aupumut: "I will sing my death song and die like a warrior going home.
" Pancakes? - I thought we were going to the beach.
- In a minute.
I Just want him to see me in my bikini first.
- You mean you want him to molest you.
- Shut up.
I have real feelings for this guy Oh, my God.
Looks like your mom has some feelings too, for that guy's butt.
Dude, why are you talking about that guy's butt? - Yo, shut up, man.
- You're so gay sometimes.
Oh, my God.
- Welcome home, Ryan.
- Taylor.
Taylor, Taylor, this Are you wearing paJamas? Oh, yes.
Many people sleep better with a warm body beside them.
But don't worry.
It's completely nonsexual.
Yeah, I gotta ask, though.
Is this? I mean, you don't like me, do you? - Yeah, I like you.
We're friends.
- No, I mean the My goodness, no.
No, no, no.
I Just, you know, I wanna pay you back.
And I happen to be really interested in sleep disorders.
- Okay.
- Great.
Shall we start with the massage? What the? Hey.
- What are you doing here? - Me? What are you doing here? Bringing Ryan coffee, and I live here.
Did you stay the night? No.
Well, yeah.
Kind of.
Can I Just have one of these? Did you put in any sweetener? I read aspartame can cause brain tumors quicker than you can say "Jack Robinson.
" - Hey - Taylor.
Well, I was Just helping Ryan with his sleep.
Have you seen him? He was gone when I woke up.
Hey, I went for a Jog.
- Yeah.
- This isn't what it looks like.
Totally.
- Yeah, you know - Well, kind of.
- We did sleep in the same bed.
- No, you slept in the bed.
I read in the chair all night.
This is too weird for this early in the morning.
I'm Just gonna Here.
Well, that was good.
So you really didn't sleep at all? Was it because I snored? Mom wanted me to get an operation for a deviated septum.
You didn't snore.
We should talk about what happened so I can adJust the plan.
Taylor, look, I appreciate everything you've done, I really do.
And I think you're probably right about volchok.
But I also think it's something I need to go through on my own.
So let's call it even, okay? - Okay.
- All right.
I'm gonna go Jump in the pool.
So, what, Sandy Just served me up like a piece of meat? How rich is he? Five o'clock would be fine.
- Hi, honey.
- You going on a date? Yes, I'm going to Sandy's delinquent benefit with a man called the Bullit.
Apparently, he owns Texas.
Well, that sounds like fun.
Do you think Mr.
Cohen would mind if I crashed? Yeah, I think that'll be okay.
I'll have to leave you some cab money.
Well, what if I invited a friend who drives? That works too.
It's nice to see you interested in charity.
That's me.
- Ms.
Roberts, the reason we called you - I helped free the bunnies.
I didn't know they were only being studied for how they interacted.
- I know it doesn't excuse it.
- Well, the board appreciates your candor.
Can you tell us who else was involved? No, I'm sorry.
I see.
There have been other acts of political activism this semester that cross the line of legality.
An incident at the Board of Trustees dinner - I wasn't involved in that.
- Do you know who was? Ms.
Roberts, the severity of your punishment will be influenced by how cooperative you are today.
Dean, other deans I really, really love Brown.
I have changed so much here.
But I'm afraid if I tell you who did those other things then I'd be betraying the new me, and I can't do that.
One final question.
- There is still one rabbit missing - I don't know anything about that.
Taylor, did you take my lip gloss with the bee pheromones in it? It's on the dresser.
- Are you okay? - Yeah, peachy.
Talk.
Okay, what do you do when you like a boy and he barely knows you're alive and you already pretended to be his sleep therapist and I'm out of options.
Okay.
Well, this may sound a little weird, but try dressing up fabulous and going to a place where you know you'll run into him.
- That's it? - That's it.
- That really works? - Almost every time.
And I mean, touching his arm when you guys are talking is always good and dancing and body contact.
And laugh at his Jokes.
I mean, even if they're not that funny.
I do that already.
Okay, what else? You could walk in front of him.
I mean, if he's a butt guy.
- I don't know if he's a butt guy.
- It can't hurt.
- I mean, girl, you got a great butt.
- You are such a sweetie.
Tell me more.
I Just wanna thank you again on behalf of the entire Public Defender's Office.
So please, drink, dance and have a great time.
Thank you.
Hello.
- This is wonderful.
- Thank you.
So how's Julie and the Bullit doing? See for yourself.
So there was this big white-tailed Texas deer coming across there so I wheel around like Dick Cheney and go: I got him.
- Hello, Ryan.
- Taylor, hi, you look I look nice? - Nice.
That's the word I was looking for.
- Well, so do you.
- Would you like to dance? - Actually, I'm not much of a dancer.
- It's probably shocking.
- Maybe the exercise will tire you out.
Not that this is therapy.
No, we're not doing that anymore.
It's Just, you know, fun.
- Yeah, okay.
- Okay.
Okay, Just - He wants to talk numbers Monday.
- Who? The Bullit.
He's getting drinks.
But he's in, Kiki.
He loves NewMatch.
- That's great.
- I know.
- Mom? - Kaitlin.
Look at who I brought with me.
What are you doing here? You said your mom told you to bring me.
- What's going on? - Is that your date? - You and I will talk later.
Bullit, this is - What the hell are you doing here, boy? - You know each other? - You're on a date with my dad? - What? - What? Oh, God.
- You ditching my party already? - I was thinking about calling Summer.
I'm not supposed to call her till 10:03 but technically, it is 10:03 on the East Coast, so that's not cheating, is it? Sorry, Seth.
That's a yeah, that'd be cheating.
Hey, did I see Taylor leaving the pool house this morning? Yeah.
She's pretending to be Ryan's sleep therapist so he falls in love with her.
Well, that's new.
That would explain the way they're dancing in there.
- I hope it works out.
- You're supporting this seduction plot? Well, you don't have to be a shrink to see that Ryan's still working through things.
You know, I think he could use the human connection.
Yeah, but those two, I don't know.
Well, they're not the most obvious couple.
But then, neither were you and Summer, once upon a time.
And Taylor thinks Ryan is funny.
- No, we did not hate you.
- Oh, you totally hated me.
You were probably the president of the We Hate Taylor Club.
- I was the secretary.
I took the notes.
- Ryan, you made a real Joke.
Well, a pretty bad one.
But I made a real Joke.
Thank you, but don't tell anyone.
You want a drink? - That would be nice.
- Okay.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Saw you dancing with Taylor.
- Is that look supposed to mean something? - Craxier things have happened.
- Nothing I can recall this instant - I don't think so.
Ask yourself why.
She's smart, she's funny.
Dude, Just forget about it, okay? I'm not gonna date Taylor.
I was Just Excuse me.
Taylor, Taylor.
Hold on.
Let me explain.
I think you were pretty clear, Ryan.
And yes, I lied when you asked me if I liked you, but What was I even thinking? I mean, you and me? - It's Just I must be totally craxy.
- You're not craxy, okay? Ryan, I pretended to be a sleep therapist to seduce you.
- That was craxy.
- Don't worry.
Next week, I'll be obsessed with a guy who gives me change for parking.
What I said has absolutely nothing to do with you, okay? It's Just What? That for the longest time all you could feel was your desire to kill volchok? Now that's gone, so you feel empty? Can't feel anything? Least of all anything for me? - How do you keep doing that? - Doing what? That.
You keep telling me what I'm thinking before I feel it.
Because I think about you.
You know, I want you to be happy.
And I think that, if you gave it a chance, you might feel something too.
Taylor Are you gonna tell me that you really like me as a friend? Maybe.
How does she do that? Do you have any idea what you Just did in there? Screwed up things with your boyfriend? You were all, "I'm off men.
- I'm gonna focus on the new business.
" - That was about business.
That man was going to give us money, money that we need.
Why did you have to hook up with Spencer? I mean, couldn't you see that I liked him? He's 10 years older than you.
And no, I couldn't see that.
- I was flirting.
- You flirt with everybody.
- So do you.
- You're 15 years old.
You're my mother.
I don't have to see guys sneaking down the stairs while I'm trying to eat breakfast.
It makes me wanna barf.
That is completely fair.
Oh, my God, honey.
What is wrong with me? I am so sorry.
It's okay.
Just try to pick one guy.
One that I don't like.
How did you know that Spencer was Bullit's son? - I didn't.
- It was Just coincidence? It's weird.
- Summer, hey.
What are you doing? - Waiting for you.
Have you been talking to the board this whole time? Summer, have I accomplished anything this semester? Are you kidding? Che, there would be no political activism at Brown without you.
- Oh, my God, are you getting kicked out? - No, no, but I think you might be.
- What? - Yeah, they needed a scapegoat.
You said yourself I'm too important to the movement, so - What did you tell them, Che? - Just that you flooded the trustees dinner.
And disabled the maintenance vehicles in October and Well, there was a whole list of stuff.
I was gonna say a couple, but I thought: "If Summer's going down anyways, may as well go down in style" Che, you did all of those things and I protected you.
I know.
And the movement will never forget Shut up about the movement, okay? This is not Cuba.
We are in college.
We have dining cards.
I'm gonna get kicked out.
- Caterpillar - Don't call me that.
Just stay away from me.
Well, fine.
Fine, you'll have your money tomorrow.
Senators.
Well, if it's not the little pot-stirrer.
Have you seen my idiot son? He's probably somewhere banging his head.
Dude, no one cares that he's your son.
You should invest in my mother's business.
Or what? You'll tell everyone what a meanie old Bullit is and I'm gonna have to sit alone at lunch? My mother is awesome.
She ran the Newport Group.
And when she broke up with her fiance, she got his house.
- She'll make you a lot of money.
- Already got a lot of money, squirt.
- Just thought it might be fun.
- Lf that's all you're in for then knowing my mother, it'll be the best investment you've ever made.
- Tired? - Exhausted.
Hey, how did it go with the Bullit? Well, as it turns out, Julie was dating his 25-year-old son.
- That's a weird coincidence.
- That sums it up.
Sandy, mind if I borrow your wife for a second? Come on, blondie, I won't bite.
- Hey, are you ready to go home? - Yeah.
Where's Spencer? I figured you would've made up and he'd be showing you his half volley.
I told him it's over and that if he ever came near you again, I would crush him.
Julie, we're back on.
Bullit wants to come by the office on Monday.
- What? - Apparently, Kaitlin can be quite persuasive.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Yeah, I got game.
- You wanna get some ice cream? - Well, I stopped eating What the hell.
The guy at the ice cream store is so hot.
That's my girl.
- Well, close enough.
- Seth.
Taylor, what are you doing in here? When I had really bad insomnia last year, a Chinese doctor gave me this herbal tea and I thought it might help Ryan sleep.
I would've given it to him before, but I was trying to seduce him, so So why can't you Just give it to him? Because I'm too embarrassed.
You were totally right.
Here I am, getting a divorce.
I'm living like a refugee at Julie's.
Ryan's nice to me, so I fall for him? It's Just totally pathetic.
Just please give that to him.
Wow, I never thought I'd see you quitting.
It's completely hopeless, Seth.
You heard him.
I know, Just you're rolling over like an old dog.
Not the Taylor I remember.
Are you seriously trying to Jedi-mind-trick me? Taylor Townsend, quitter.
I guess I'll Just have to get used to that.
Fine.
- Hello? - Hey.
Hey, Summer, I was Just about to call you.
- Oh, you were? - Yeah.
I wanted to call, but I didn't wanna seem needy.
Are you kidding? I've been wanting to call you all week.
- Seth, you still love me, right? - Of course I do.
What's going on? Well, I got a rabbit.
Okay.
What's its name? Wait, no, let me guess.
- Is it Cycletron? - No.
Are you lying? Is it? Is it Gorgon the Destroyer of Carrots? No.
- Is it Larry? - Larry? You're not Larry.
- Hi.
- Hey.
I brought you some tea.
I'm not trying to be your therapist again.
- I Just thought it might help you sleep.
- Oh, thanks.
- What am I doing? - Hold on.
Look, I gotta say something.
I think you've got this idea that you're this strange person that has to trick people into liking her.
It's not true.
You're amaxing.
- Oh, my God, you Just did it to me.
- Did what? Said exactly what I was feeling.
Well, except for the "amaxing" part.
Well, it's true.
And honestly, you know, I wish I did feel something.
- Kiss me.
- What? I think there's something there.
And I think that, if you kiss me, you'll feel it too.
- I think we already did that.
- No.
You kissed me.
I didn't kiss you.
Come on, Just If you don't feel anything, I will never mention it again.
That's the best deal you'll ever get.
Ask Seth.
Just one kiss.
One kiss.
- One kiss.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
I'm sorry.
Thanks for talking to me.
I really miss you.
- Get some sleep, I'll talk to you tomorrow.
- I love you.
I love you too.
