It's all just too much excitement.
I just need to stop for a minute.
Thanks.
Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay.
Are you okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
I cannot believe we did that.
I can't either.
We're crazy.
Yeah, we are.
Are we going to tell your dad we did this? I mean, he's babysitting John and I don't know what we're going to tell him.
Or anyone else.
For now, let's just keep it a secret.
Falling in love is such an easy thing to do Birds can do it We can do it Let's stop talking Let's get to it Let's fall in love Hello.
Finally, someone answered the phone.
What is going on there? Nothing.
Who didn't answer their phone? You.
Amy.
Ashley.
My entire family.
We text, we don't answer the phones.
We only did that when you were away.
Now that you're home, it's back to the usual.
You want someone, you have to text.
I don't want to text, I want a voice.
Human contact.
I don't want words on a screen.
I'm the mother.
I'm still the mother.
Still? What do you mean? I mean, my whole life just changed.
What happened? What happened? I told everyone that I'm gay and then I come home and then nothing.
No one calls me, no one's answering my calls.
Oh.
That's all? Nobody really cares.
It doesn't really matter that you're gay.
So what? So what? This is huge for me.
And Amy kind of came around in the end, but I don't know, I have the feeling that Amy is not happy with me.
Maybe not because I'm gay.
Maybe it's because of the way that I told her, or that I told Ashley first, I don't know.
It's just a gut feeling.
You're making too big a deal out of this.
Am I? Yeah.
All right, well, anything else, other than for us to answer our phones? George, I just feel kinda vulnerable right now.
And I want to stay with my family.
You were so supportive of my coming out.
I just really need with all of you.
All right, well, we'll try to do a better job of staying in touch.
Everything else okay? Yeah.
Pretty much, I guess.
Mimsy is doing okay, and Robie is good.
I don't know, I'm just feeling lonely.
I was thinking of asking Amy and John and Ashley if they wanted to come down here tomorrow and spend the night.
Hang out, talk.
Amy went somewhere with Ricky, they're coming back tomorrow, I'm babysitting.
Why don't you try texting Ashley? Ashley doesn't have her driver's license, so if she wanted to come here, I guess I'd have to go and get her.
Unless you wanted to bring her? You'd bring her if she wanted to come? Yeah.
All right.
Can you talk to her? Talk her into coming here? Yeah, okay, I'll give it a shot.
I realty miss her.
And Amy.
It's really important that I spend time with them right now.
All right.
So where did you say that Amy is? It's the last day of school, she and Ricky took off somewhere.
Where? I don't know.
It was a last minute thing.
They just wanted to take a drive, take a night off.
Well, so what if something happens to John? How will you get in touch with them? I'd text them.
Bye.
Bye.
What do you mean, that's my diploma? You're just going to Just like that? Well, school is out, and you've already required subjects and you've already gone to a graduation ceremony, so, yeah, that's your diploma.
Take it.
No.
What do you mean, "No?" I don't want it.
Well, not like this, a napkin or something.
I want special.
I could roll it up and tie a bow around it.
No, it's not that, it's just This isn't right.
This is not how it's supposed to end.
It's the culmination of thirteen if you count kindergarten and I count kindergarten.
I don't know what you want me to do.
We don't have a graduation ceremony for the summer school graduating class.
At least not this year anyway, because there's only three of you.
So we're graduating in summer school! What, if you prick us, do we not bleed? What? Shakespeare.
Merchant of Venice.
And I want some recognition for graduating.
There's no graduation ceremony.
How could you not know this? I thought today you were gonna tell me that it was next week or something, I thought you had to see if I finished my classes.
Do you know what hell I went through to graduate high school? Yes.
I know you've been through a lot, which is why I pushed to have you included in the other graduation ceremony with your friends.
I'm leaving for vacation and I want to get out of town before it gets dark.
I'm driving to San Clemente, and I'm going to the beach for two weeks.
I paid for it with my credit card points and I can't get those back.
So I am going to get packed up and get out of here.
What kind of a counselor are you? Oh.
I know what's going on.
You don't want to leave school.
Aw.
I want to leave.
I am definitely ready to get out of high school.
I just don't want to leave like this.
Why wouldn't I want to leave high school? Oh, I don't know.
Maybe because your boyfriend is going to be student teaching here? Omar? Say what? You are done here, Adrian, Omar or no Omar.
Actually it's "finished.
" It's not "done," it's "finished.
" You're a high school graduate.
Fine.
There's nothing special about it, it's just another day.
Goodbye, see ya.
Thanks for nothing.
Congratulations! Oh.
Oh.
I'll see you in a couple of weeks, cutie.
Whatever.
Bye, high school.
Just sign here, please.
Sign it Mr.
and Mrs.
I don't think we have to do that.
This is just a credit issue, not a morals issue.
They don't care if we're married.
We're on our honeymoon.
Kind of.
We eloped.
Which is why I don't have a wedding band.
Just an engagement ring.
He proposed to me at graduation.
You really don't have to explain.
Oh.
That's nice.
Why didn't you say something? We have a honeymoon suite.
Oh, well, we're kind of on a budget.
The whole world's on a budget, that's why we have so many rooms available.
You know, I'm going to give you an upgrade.
For the price of the room you can have the suite.
Our compliments.
That's so nice of you.
Isn't it Dear? Yes, dear, it is.
So what did you get your degree in? Child psychology.
Oh.
Well, that's interesting.
I suppose you're going for your master's now.
I suppose.
Oh, my God, isn't this is great? If you call lying great.
It's not lying exactly.
I don't have a degree.
Yeah, but you will someday.
My mother is texting me now.
She wants to know where we are.
Are you going to tell her? No, I don't want to deal with her today.
Today is just for us.
I don't feel like talking about her and her new life.
All right, but she'll probably keep calling or texting.
Yeah, well, my dad will text me if there's a problem with John, and that's the only person I'll respond to, is John, or my dad calling about John.
Which he won't.
You could just let her know where we are.
Your dad probably told her he's babysitting and she just wants to know.
That was almost her text exactly.
But really, I'm not calling or texting anyone.
It's our day.
And it's going to be our night.
Did you know that there was no graduation ceremony? Nothing.
I got handed a piece of paper in the counselor's office and that was it.
Done, over.
You didn't really think there was gonna be a graduation, did you? I mean, you went with everybody else when they graduated.
I would've thought that would've turned you off wanting too to another graduation.
Why's that? Uh, Ricky proposed to Amy.
Ugh! I don't care.
Okay, well My mom and Tom and Jacob are waiting for me.
So I should really go.
You say that like you're never going to see me again.
You're going to see me again.
I mean, we're still friends, aren't we? Just because we're no longer roommates and we're not going to the same school doesn't mean we're aren't friends.
I'm happy you brought that up.
Brought what up? Our friendship.
Because you know, if you think about it, you and I are really going our separate ways.
You're going off to college and I'm still in high school.
You're a whole year older than me.
Ten months.
You're going to have new friends and view life experiences, and Jack's going off to college, too.
Are you giving him this same speech? No, you're not.
Because you're trying to end our friendship because of that kiss, aren't you? You're not just here to say goodbye, you're here to say you don't want to be friends with me.
I just feel like it's the best thing.
For both of us.
Are you kidding me? I'm sorry.
Fine.
Go pack up the rest of your things and go home.
I packed.
Everything is in the car.
Goodbye, Adrian.
Good luck to you at school.
Yeah, and good luck to you getting another best friend.
Hey.
Oh.
Hey.
I just thought I'd drop by.
Why's that? Why just drop? Why not text or call or throw a rock at the window? You can't just drop by, Henry.
Oh.
I thought I could.
I've kind of been dropping by since the third grade.
Well, we're not in the third grade anymore.
Okay, but it's the last day of school, and we always do something together.
I tried to catch up with you after the last class, but it looked like you and Alice were in some kind of, I don't know, private conversation.
Ben, can I ask you something? What is this, some kind of interrogation? I just get the feeling that you and Alice aren't telling me something.
What wouldn't we be telling you? Something you don't want me to know? That was an intense conversation.
What is going on? Just tell me.
Okay, look.
Truth? I'm having a harder time being around you than I thought I would.
I mean I want things to just be the way they were, but You slept with Adrian.
Are we back to that? Back to that? Did we ever really get away from that? Uh, I thought we had.
Yeah.
Well, I'm trying, okay? I'm really trying, but I mean, that was a terrible thing to do, Henry.
And I know you're sorry, but sometimes it's just hard to look you in the face.
Shouldn't it be hard for me to look you in the face? It should be, but I guess it isn't.
But, Ben, I thought you forgave me.
I forgave you but I didn't forget about it.
I wish I could, but sometimes it just gets to me.
Like today, on the last day of school, when traditionally the three of us would get together.
The last last day of school, you slept with Adrian.
And I got to tell you, Henry, you lost some trust.
And over time, I'm sure I'll trust you again, but I'm not there yet, all right? And sometimes I just need to talk to Alice all by myself.
All right.
I understand.
Alice is great to talk to.
And I just really appreciate that you're willing to take the time to try and trust me again.
I'm here for you, if you need me.
And I'm sorry, again, I'm sorry.
I suck! Hey, Dylan.
Hey yourself, boyfriend.
You're smiling.
Yeah.
Haven't been doing much of that lately.
It's Friday night, school is out, so come over here and get me.
The last time we went out, something bad happened.
Ben, you worry too much.
Come on.
I haven't seen you all week.
Your dad still hasn't said anything? No.
He hasn't said a word, neither of them have.
You know he knows we were there.
I'm sure he does.
And I'm sure he's seen all the footage from all the cameras, from every angle, and that if he thought we actually burned down the building, he'd say something.
Believe me.
Maybe he just doesn't know what to say.
Or maybe he doesn't want to say anything.
Maybe he wants to keep whatever information he has to himself.
Like there's no evidence that we had anything at all to do with that fire.
Dylan, you and I both know we were in the lab with a Bunsen burner that we probably left burning when we left.
I doubt it.
What else could have happened? I don't know.
But the security guard let us in.
He could have let other people in.
He's an idiot.
Maybe he set the fire.
Just let it go.
Yore kind of scaring me with how cool you are about all of this.
That's because we didn't do anything.
I just wish we could be sure that we didn't do anything.
Ben, I know this all seems bad right now, but something good will come of this.
What? What possible good could come from this? You haven't heard? Heard what? It's going to take at least a year to rebuild the school, so they're leasing space from the city, and that space is your school.
We're going to be going to school together after all.
Ben? And you're not afraid that might be interpreted as motive? I'll talk to you later, my dad is here.
Hi, there.
Hi.
So Henry didn't stay long.
He just dropped by, but I was waiting on a call from Dylan.
And Dylan called.
I wanna ask you something that I've been wanting to ask you all week, and I already know the answer to this question, so I want you to answer it carefully and truthfully.
Did you and Dylan have something to do with that fire at her school? What? No.
Absolutely not.
That's your answer? That's my answer.
Your mother wants to know if you want to go to her place tomorrow.
No, why would she think that? I don't know, what are you doing this weekend? Do you have something better to do than going to see your own mother? I don't have any plans.
I just spent weeks running all over Europe with my own mother.
I've seen enough of my own mother.
I have a life, too.
Your mom needs you for emotional support.
You can't just hang out in your room forever.
It's very stressful being around this family.
Just saps all my energy.
I just got home a week ago and all hell's broken loose.
So do you mind if I take comfort in my bed in my bedroom for a week, maybe two weeks, and then I'll get out of your way! Oh, hey.
Sorry I'm late, there was an incident on the bus.
But I'm ready to watch John if he's asleep in bed with very little chance of waking up before you get back from Kathleen's.
Me and Moose ran him around the yard for an hour, he could hardly stay awake long enough to eat his dinner.
He should be fine.
All right, go, I got it.
Oh! By the way, um, where are Amy and Ricky? They went somewhere, I don't know.
I don't know.
School was over today and they wanted to go away for a night, what do I care? I don't care either, I'm just asking.
I'll see you later.
So how are things going with Kathleen? Who wants to know? Me.
We're not doing anything, we're just hanging out together having a good time.
Really? So you're okay being in a sexless relationship again? What again? I wasn't in a sexless relationship before.
Anne and I had sex and plenty of it! Hmm.
Would you two stop talking! I remind you, you and I were friends long before you and Anne were friends.
You were my friend first.
I know.
And I am still your friend, George.
But you don't answer your phone and neither does Amy or Ashley, and Anne is feeling very vulnerable right now.
So unless you want to talk to her No, no.
I know she's going through some stuff, but that's not my area, you talk to her.
Just not about me.
About her.
Goodnight.
So we don't know where Amy and Ricky are? They're not here, that's where they are.
Amy asked me if I would pick up John and I wanted to see him, so I picked him up.
They'll be home tomorrow by lunch.
They didn't go to Vegas or anything like that, did they? What if they did? Well, if they did go to Vegas for a night, then I'd say maybe they might be They might be getting married! Or they got married! Married? What? Why would they go away for the night? I don't know.
Because they live in a shack above a meat store and they wanted to get out? Don't jump to conclusions like that.
Like them getting married.
Married? Geez.
I don't know, that's just what came into my head.
Well, you got a weird head.
I know.
Married! And so what if they did? What do you mean what if they did? What if you and Anne and Margaret and Shakur and I missed seeing those two get married? They're living together and they have a child together, does it make sense to you to spend money on throwing them a big wedding? You know, I hope they did go to Vegas and get married.
But I seriously doubt it.
Goodnight.
And do not talk to Anne about this.
You still didn't tell him? No.
Not the right time.
He's going to find out sooner or later and when he does, he's going to freak out.
There is no right time.
Although before we did anything might have been better than after.
I don't really care.
It's none of his business.
And if he makes it his business, well I'm not afraid of him.
I am.
Well, don't be.
We don't have to tell him what we're doing, but I am not going to hide from him.
I don't care what he thinks.
He or my own mother.
Besides, he's too wrapped up with wife number one to even know that you're over here.
He's like a dog, he can only focus on one thing at a time and right now, he's focused on her.
I just don't want him to focus on me.
He's going to blame me for this.
Just don't worry about it.
Uh, that lady is at the door.
Oh.
Nora.
I got to ask you something.
Hi.
Toby.
Toby.
Do you have any idea where Amy is? Amy and Ricky? Their apartment? They went out of town for the night.
Your dad and I are babysitting John.
Wouldn't that require your being near the baby? I've got the Walkie-Talkie.
I know how to use it.
You don't think they would Like they would run off and get married or anything like that? I hope so.
I sure as hell don't want to be at that wedding.
Is anyone uncomfortable? I thought you might know something.
No.
All right.
I just have this gut feeling.
Why don't you just call Ricky? Oh, I don't know.
No, that seems rather intrusive.
And yet He won't care.
It's not like they'd be having sex for the first time.
Oh.
Geez.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Are you two like Us? No.
Not at the moment.
Does your dad know he's here? Toby.
And no.
He does not.
All right.
Well, I never saw you.
Wait a minute.
Does your mother know? This is none of my business.
No, it isn't.
Goodnight.
Carry on.
Or don't carry on.
Or, you know what, if you do carry on, be safe.
No judgment.
I'm just I'm gonna leave.
She's going to tell her.
No, she's not, she's an ex-con.
Oh yeah, I forgot.
Still.
This *** was such a great idea.
Well, I wouldn't have wanted to get carded over a bottle of champagne, since you already lied about how old we are.
I didn't want champagne anyway, so To us! To us! It's my mother again! Yeah, my mother keeps calling me, too.
You don't think my dad told them? My mom can get anything out of anyone.
Yeah, but he swore he wouldn't say anything.
Yeah, I know, but he's your dad.
Yeah.
I guess we should have called him when we left the chapel.
Yeah, we probably should have.
You could call him now.
No, no.
I said we weren't calling anyone so We can just explain to them when we get back.
Or we could explain now so they can leave us alone.
I said we weren't calling them so we're not calling them, or texting them, or anything else.
All right.
Room service.
Did we order anything else? I don't think so.
One second.
I have something for you from the manager and our staff.
We just wanted to say congratulations to the newlyweds.
That's so sweet! Thank you so much.
I'll just tip him.
Isn't she just the sweetest! And you will not tip me.
It was my pleasure to serve you.
We're just hoping you'll come back every year for your anniversary.
Please.
Take a twenty.
I'd feel better about it.
All right, well Thank you.
And goodnight now.
I'll put the "do not disturb" sign on.
What? We don't have to drink the champagne.
We can save it for later.
And this is coconut cake! Oh, my gosh! I love coconut cake.
All right, well, we should enjoy tonight because tomorrow is sure to be hell.
My mothers are no fun when they're angry and neither is yours.
Eh, I don't care.
Oh, Ricky, okay, pick up a piece of cake, like this.
Okay.
I'm gonna feed it to you and you're gonna feed it to me, okay? Okay.
And we're gonna do this.
Hey! No.
I hate that tradition.
I don't want anything smashed in my face.
I do.
Where have you been? Oh.
Hi, Grace.
What are you doing here? Hi, Grace.
What am I doing here? I live here.
Oh.
Do you? Are you back for good? Are you? Yeah, I am.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah.
"Oh.
" Please don't tell me you guys were out riding bicycles at this time of night.
I took your mother for a little spin on my bike, my motorcycle.
But we went very slow.
That was slow? You did what! Hey, George.
I didn't know you were here.
He took Mom out on his motorcycle.
What are you doing here? I live here! Oh.
You're back? Yeah, I'm back.
And I am not about to let our mother go around riding a motorcycle at night while she's still married.
Okay, Grace, maybe I won't be riding around on a motorcycle again, but I am getting divorced, and I will be going out with George again.
Will you take me out on your motorcycle? No, Tom.
That's not a good idea.
If it's not a good idea, what are you doing going riding on a motorcycle, Miss Mid-Life Crisis? Hey! Let me handle this.
Handle what? You two have literally both lost your minds, do you know that? Hey, Grace.
What are you doing here? I live here! I'll talk to her.
Oh, there will be plenty of time for that.
Who wants cake? I do! I do! Damn! Oh.
Sorry.
You don't curse, do you guys? I don't.
I do.
What's wrong? I have to go.
Nora says I need to come home.
Oh! Is everything okay with John? Yeah, he's asleep, she thinks Anne might be on the way up here.
Oh, hell.
Really? She'd get Robie up at this time of night and drive him all the way up here? I don't know, she might.
Sometimes we drive him in the car to make him sleep.
Yeah, but, driving him around and driving all the way from Palm Springs are two different things.
I mean, she wouldn't drive two or three hours just to put the baby to sleep.
What's going on? Oh, she thinks Amy and Ricky ran off and got married.
Oh.
Wow.
Did they? Is that where they are? I don't know.
But if they did get married, would that be so bad? Getting married is a good thing, especially if you did a bad thing and got pregnant first.
Not that there's anything wrong with two consenting adults having a child out of wedlock, if that's what they want to do.
Even if one of them was married at the time.
I have to go.
Don't forget the helmet.
No.
That's for you.
You keep that.
Aw.
Thank you.
Talk to you later, doll.
Okay.
Goodnight.
Damn.
Let's go tell Grace about Ricky and Amy.
No, no, no.
Let's not tell anyone anything unless we know for sure.
I have no family, I have no friends, no best friend, no boyfriend I give up! Okay? I give up! I am not meant to be a sinner! Forgive me Lord, I have ruined my life with sex! I could have been somebody! I could have been a contender.
Guys used to fall over themselves looking at me in the hallway.
I was the "it" girl of Grant High! I was the hot virgin that everyone wanted to have sex with! And then I had sex.
And now I'm just like every other girl in school! I've made my whole life about boys and sex, and And then I kissed Adrian! God! How could I kiss Adrian! How could I ask her to kiss me! She's my best friend! Now I just don't have a best friend! I am a giant loser! Because sex made me a giant loser! I don't want to be a giant loser! I don't want to have sex anymore.
From this point forward, I'm not gonna have sex anymore.
With God as my witness, I'm never gonna have sex again until I'm married! And this time I mean it, okay? I really I really mean it this time.
Is this a good time? Yeah.
Jack, actually, I want you to be the first to know.
I am going back to church.
Oh, good.
Yeah, my dad says attendance is really off this summer.
He was hoping to get things going again in the fall.
I mean, we weren't going to have sex anyway, were we? Well, I was still thinking about it, and then tonight, just now, it hit me.
I don't want to have sex again.
Unless I'm married.
All right, well, I don't think you need to get all Christian again just to have a reason not to have sex.
I mean, if you don't wanna have sex, you don't have to have sex.
What's going on? Lots of things, I guess.
With you.
Oh.
With me? Um Well You remember that girl that I made out with at the party, your old boyfriend's girlfriend? Daniel's girlfriend? The one who's friends with Ben's girlfriend? The skanky looking one? Or sexy.
However you choose to look at it.
What about her? I'm going to go out with her.
I've kind of been out with her.
Well, I'll pray for you.
All right.
Well, goodnight.
That was easier than I thought it would be.
Hey, honey.
You asleep? I think your mom might be on her way down here.
Although I texted her to wait until tomorrow morning.
- Oh, no.
- Shh! What are you doing in bed so early? Where did you get the two other feet? Whose feet are those? They're mine, sir.
What the hell is going on? Nothing's going on, we were just sleeping.
Right now.
We've had sex before, but we were just sleeping.
Don't kill me.
Please don't kill me.
I'm not going to kill you.
I might punch you.
You're not going to punch anyone.
Why are you getting so upset? No one is pregnant here.
No one is doing anything wrong.
We're safe.
God.
Ashley! What? What did you expect? We traveled across the country together.
Not "together" together.
This is new, we just started doing this.
You're not going to cry, are you? It's better than punching me.
I don't blame you if you do punch me, but it's okay for boys to cry.
I even feel like crying.
Well, don't.
Not if you want to keep doing what we're doing.
All right, just turn out the light.
Let's go back to sleep.
No, I know they did it.
That girl is evil.
Evil, I tell you.
She doesn't fool me for one minute.
Yeah, I know, Ben is stupid, but he's not evil.
And you want to have more children? With me? Well, yes, I do.
Sooner or later, they all get into trouble.
All of them.
Well, I'm sure you got into some trouble, too.
Yeah, but not this kind of trouble.
You don't even know what this kind of trouble is, you don't know what he did.
I don't think Ben even knows what he did.
Well, he could say that.
He could tell me that, but no, he lied.
I'm sure if Ben had something to do with that fire, it was an accident.
It was an accident that happened when they were illegally in the school, and had, apparently, lit a Bunsen burner.
A Bunsen burner? You left that part out.
Yeah.
What the hell were they thinking about? It takes one bad decision to ruin a life.
Just one.
And unfortunately he's made one after another after another.
Who is it? It's your dad.
Hi! What are you doing here? Hey! What are you doing with a bat? Well, I didn't know who was at the door.
Come in.
Uh, don't open the door to a stranger just carrying a bat, okay? Are those for me? Oh, yeah.
They're from your mother and me.
She missed a connection.
She was really trying to get here.
We both wanted to say congratulations.
Aw, thank you.
You didn't have to, it's no big deal.
Hey, listen.
It is a big deal.
And, look, truthfully, Adrian, your mom and I were just going to call you this weekend and maybe go out to dinner or something, but your counselor called.
Oh, so she's not so bad after all.
I'm very proud of you, and so is your mom.
And I came right over here with those flowers, hoping you weren't out for the night.
And hoping you weren't in for the night with Omar.
Oh, Omar and I broke up.
What? Why, I never even got a chance to meet the guy.
Yeah.
You'd like him.
I like him.
What happened? I don't know.
He's graduating from college and getting his masters, and he's very serious about life right now.
And, well, I'm very serious about school right now.
I'm really looking forward to starting college.
And I'm hoping to kind of leave behind who I was in high school, and be who I really want to be.
And who is that? The kind of woman my daughter would have been proud of to have as a mother.
Oh, Adrian.
No, it's okay.
I'm not so sad anymore.
I mean, I still think about her all the time and about what happened.
I just, I don't think I'm going to be ready to get married or have a family any time in the near future.
Did you tell Omar that? No.
I thought if I did, I might lose him.
And as it turns out, I lost him anyway.
Maybe it just wasn't the right time.
He's a really nice guy.
Look, you're going to meet a lot of nice guys when you get to school, but listen, stick to your plan, okay? Finish college, go to law school and then think about marrying Omar, or whatever guy you end up falling in love with.
And until then, you can count on me to lean on any time you need a guy to lean on.
I wasn't there for you growing up, but I am here now.
And I'm never too busy for you.
And I hope you don't get too busy for me when you go to school.
Thanks, Dad.
Anytime.
So, uh, you seen Ben lately? No, he's all involved with some crazy redhead from the private school.
What do you mean by crazy? Crazy because she smokes pot or something? Oh, I forgot I told you about that, about Ben and her smoking pot.
I don't know, she just seems crazy.
Like, she's nice on the outside, but not so nice on the inside.
I don't know, something is off with that chick.
Off? Yeah.
Well, she can't be too off if Ben likes her, right? Well, you know Ben, he likes us bad girls.
So you think you and Ben will ever get back together? Ricky and I have a better chance of getting back together than Ben and me.
Okay.
Good to know.
Hello.
We're doing my favorite thing again, sneaking around at night in strange places.
Isn't the park spooky at night? A little.
Dylan, I can't really live like this, I have to tell my dad what happened.
'Cause I think I recall your dad telling you that if you got into any trouble with me, you're on your own.
Yeah, but I mean, this is big trouble.
Or no trouble at all.
Ask your dad.
Please, ask your dad about it.
And just tell him we were there, and just see what he says.
I've got to know, Dylan.
Okay, Ben, I'll ask him.
Promise.
But that doesn't mean he'll tell me what he knows.
He can't.
Come on, what are we talking about this for? Let's talk about school.
I can't believe we're going to be in the same school.
Yeah, only if we're not in jail.
Oh, Ben, you're just so dramatic.
It'll be fine.
It will.
And even if it's not, even if we did accidentally burn down the school, our dads will take care of it.
Look, Dylan, I don't think that we should be seeing each other.
I am realizing that I am not as oblivious to the rules and And the law.
You are, and I'm I'm a worrier.
I'm a worrier, and I can't handle this.
Ben Boykewich, you are not breaking up with me.
Unless you don't want my dad to protect you, too.
What? I'm joking.
Oh.
I'm joking.
Are you? Ben, we got in this together, and we're going to get out of it together.
And we can't do that if we break up, now can we? I didn't say I wanted to break up, I just It's going to be fine.
Took you long enough.
You knew I'd want to come talk to you? Yeah.
How'd you know? Because you're a decent guy, and that's what a decent guy would do.
Which doesn't mean I approve of you sleeping with my little girl.
I didn't figure you'd be too happy about this, but Ashley wanted this and, of course, I wanted this.
And I love her.
You better love her.
And you better not love anyone else.
And you better not get her pregnant.
No, of course not.
That's how babies are made, you know.
I know.
But she's on the pill and we're using condoms, and No more details.
That's enough.
Is, uh, Anne coming here tonight because she knows we're sleeping together? How would she know? I didn't tell her.
That other woman might have told her.
Who? Nora? Nora knows you two are doing what you're doing and she didn't tell me? She just found out.
Tonight.
Oh, great! Then I think we can count on Anne coming here as soon as possible.
God, I'm in so much trouble! I thought I was the one in trouble.
Nah, you're just a stupid kid.
I told Ricky and Amy I'd babysit if they wanted to go elope.
I even paid for the hotel.
Because I don't believe in this, in two kids living together and doing what you're doing.
I'm not living with Ashley.
Can I go tell her this? No! Don't tell her anything.
Isn't it going to get out? Yeah, and when it does, you act surprised.
Yeah, okay.
But if Ashley and I didn't tell her You want to be part of this family? You learn to keep a secret!
