The Secret Life of the American Teenager s05e22 Episode Script

Previously on The Secret Life of the American Teenager Is your mother coming over? It's time for her to go.
Amy is going to summer school in New York? You can make the decision as to where you're gonna live.
Don't forget, I'm paying for it.
So you and some woman picked out a place for you and me? I might be interested in buying out your share of the furniture store.
I want a clean break.
I don't want to be tangled up with you anymore.
I just want to know where we stand.
Goodnight and goodbye.
I hope we can still be I can make you forget all about Amy Juergens.
Don't go back there.
I want to marry you and I want to sleep with you right now.
Maybe I'm anxious about getting married because I'm nervous about sleeping with you again.
I want to get married the day after I graduate.
Thank you, Kathleen, for inviting me to stay here and for allowing me to be a part of your new life.
I can't talk to my mother about this.
- I can't tell her I slept with Jack.
- We'll get together.
I think we should ask Amy if she wants to join us.
Oh.
Hi, Anne.
Hi.
I couldn't tell you why I didn't want to be with you.
Hey, it's me.
Ginger.
I knew you'd call me, toots.
I don't even want to graduate, I don't want to go to college, at least not any college around here.
And what's wrong with the colleges around here? It's not exactly easy to get into the college where Ricky and Jack and I go to, you know.
It's a very good school.
It's not exactly Harvard.
I can't believe Grant got into Harvard.
Grace, you just have to get over that, you got into a half-dozen schools, just pick one.
Yeah, but as soon as I pick one, Jack's just going to make plans to follow me there, like a puppy or something.
Um, you love Jack.
Remember all those months of crying in the hospital (SOBS) Please, just wake up Jack, wake up, I'll do anything if you'll just wake up.
I never said that.
Yeah, you did.
Yeah, you did.
Don't make me feel like a bad person just because I don't want to be obligated to some guy right out of high school.
Some guy? You've known this guy for four years.
Doesn't mean I have to marry him.
Uh, you're wearing an engagement ring.
So what! You're wearing a wedding ring and you're not even married.
Hey.
Calm down.
Oh, come on.
You don't want to get married any more than we do and you're wearing an engagement ring too.
I want to get married.
I just don't want to get married and go to New York.
Well, I do.
I do.
I want to get married and I'm going to get married, and I am leaving right after that and going to New York.
- Well, that's not married.
- Yes, it is.
No sex is not married.
Especially when you're living across the country from your husband and kid and going to school with your old boyfriend.
Oh, I'm not even going to see Ben.
Oh, please.
Ben is going to see you.
Okay.
Well, Ben's feelings for me have nothing to do with my feelings for Ricky.
Ben's a good guy.
Maybe in the end, you'll end up with him.
- Why? So you can have Ricky back? - I'm engaged.
Okay.
Well, you're not getting married so you're not really engaged.
I slept with him.
I slept with Jack because I somehow thought that would delay our getting married.
How? I don't know, I just I figured that's all he really wants, so if I give him that then maybe he'd just lose interest.
Not unless he's really not having a good time.
Oh, he's having a good time.
Okay, please, you know how I feel about talking about guys and how they are in bed.
- I don't want to hear it.
- They talk about us.
- Ricky does not talk about me.
- (SCOFFS) Yeah, what happened to him? He used to be hot, now he's just so so blah.
Why do you say that? Because he used to stand up for himself.
Now he just, you know, rolls over.
He's giving you everything you want, Amy, and in doing that, he's kind of lost his edge, he's not the bad boy anymore, he's just Old Man Ricky.
- (CHUCKLES) - ADRIAN: Same thing with Jack.
Neither of them have any guts anymore.
Oh, you're so right.
- No she's not.
- Yeah, she is.
I mean when they were the bad boys, we liked them so much better.
And when I was the good girl, I liked me better.
This is so screwed up.
I cannot seem to figure out a way to get out of it.
You just have to tell him that you don't want to get married.
What? I want to get married.
- No, you don't.
- Neither do you.
(CELL PHONE RINGING) - Hey Dad.
- I like that, your calling me "Dad.
" (CHUCKLES) Me too.
So I guess you're confident that all is well.
Yeah.
The three stooges look like they're cooking up something to me.
Don't worry about it, they all just like to complain.
Adrian will go to New York with Omar, Grace is going to go to school with Jack and she'll marry him and Amy is going to marry me and go to school in New York and we're all going to live happily ever after.
Yeah, we'll see about that.
* 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 So, wedding day, do we have some sort of schedule? Yes.
Yes, yes.
So, Jack's dad said five o'clock, if that's okay with everyone.
You know what, if everyone comes over here afterwards, we'll never get rid of them, so what I'm thinking is, why don't we have, like, a cocktail party, without the cocktails, beforehand, and then we'll go to the church, and say our vows and then we can come home alone, just us.
And we'll let John stay with my Dad and Kathleen or something.
Whatever you want, Amy.
Well, it should be what you want too.
I just want to be married to you.
I know, and I want to be married to you, but I want the day to be for the two of us, what we both want.
The party beforehand sounds perfect.
I'll get John up and dressed and I can drop him off, if you want.
I'm working this morning.
Leo's stopping by, he said he had an offer that might help us both out, so I'm hoping that means more hours for me or a raise or something.
That'd be great, but he's already helped us out more than either of our families, so I don't know, should we accept any more help from him? I don't know what it is that he's offering yet, I've been looking for ways to earn more money and he's made it pretty clear that he wants me to stay with this business, so I hope it's more of a business thing than just help.
And you don't have any classes today? This afternoon.
Then next week I have finals, then I'm finished with the first year of college.
One down and three to go.
The time will go fast, Amy.
We'll be okay with you in I in New York.
It's not going to be easy, but it's just a few years and we have the rest of our lives together.
Yeah.
I don't know if you realize but summer school starts the same day that band camp started four years ago.
(CHUCKLES) Perfect.
Hey! (EXCLAIMS) Oh.
Geez.
Sorry.
So when were you going to tell me? - Tell you what? - That you broke up with Kathy.
I didn't break up with her, we're just taking a break.
The difference being? We're friends and we don't want to be serious, so before things get serious, we're going to take a break and see other people.
What other people? That girl you were talking to on the phone at one o'clock this morning? Yeah.
Her.
- Her name is Layla.
- I don't like her.
(CHUCKLES) Why not? Because she was on the phone with you at one o'clock when you have school today.
She is at your school, right? Yes.
Are you having sex with her? - Honestly? - Yeah.
Are you having sex with her? I was thinking about it, all right? I don't know if it is all right.
Are you sure you're ready to have this kind of relationship? I've been ready for a while now.
I wasn't asking you if everything is functioning properly, I'm asking you if you're ready to be that intimately involved with a young woman.
Yes.
Then why not Kathy? Because she had a baby, she doesn't want to have sex in high school, ever again.
So because she doesn't want to have sex, you don't want to be her boyfriend? Um, well, it's not just that, it's that Layla does want to have sex so I want to be her boyfriend.
You are too young to have sex.
High school is too young to have sex, but I guess if you're going to have sex, you're gonna have sex.
- Do you have condoms? - No.
I'm too embarrassed to buy them, she said she'd get them.
You're too embarrassed to buy condoms, but not too embarrassed to have sex with someone you hardly know.
I think it's easier that way, to have sex with someone you don't know that ll.
I mean, if it were Kathy, I'd be kind of worried about her, but with Layla, I don't know, it's almost anonymous.
She says I should try it, it's not that serious, it's fun.
Unless you get her pregnant, - or you get an STI or - STI? Sexually transmitted infection? Oh.
Yeah.
But a condom should take care of that, right? Well there are things that can be transmitted orally.
All right, I hope we are near the end of our discussion.
Embarrassed again? Just say what you want to say.
Don't have sex.
And if you do have sex, use a condom, make sure that she's on the pill, but despite the condoms and pills, it still isn't safe because you can get your heart broken.
My heart really has very little to do with it.
I don't doubt that.
(SIGHS) So as long as you're safe, and as long as you have her parents' permission, then Permission? I'm not going to ask their permission.
Why would I ask their permission? All right.
I could call her parents and ask them if you don't want to ask them.
- Hey.
- Hey! You got something to eat, like something I can take with me? I have to get to school.
Are you and Jack having sex again? What! What are you talking about? Why would you ask me something like that? Because there seems to be a open, empty condom wrapper on your skirt.
Ew! How did that get there? That is so gross! Where did that come from? Oh, my God! I must've sat on an empty condom wrapper! - Grace.
- That is disgusting.
Do you have any gloves so I can get rid of it? It's just a wrapper, and my guess is, that you were the one who used the contents.
I did not.
Jack did.
Grace! I thought you decided you were going to wait until you got married.
Yeah, yeah, I was going to wait because I thought Jack would get tired of waiting and just go marry someone else.
But instead you slept with Jack? Yeah.
I slept with him.
But I take it, you don't want to marry Jack, you want him to marry someone else.
I love him.
It's just he's so needy.
And so irritating.
I wish I'd just stayed with Grant.
He's going to Harvard.
- So you slept with Jack? - I just said I did.
Good morning.
- She's sleeping with Jack.
- Mom! Well, at least you're using protection.
Would you throw that away, or do you want to go to school like that? She doesn't want to marry Jack.
All right then, don't marry Jack.
But she said yes, she's wearing an engagement ring.
And she's having sex with him.
Doesn't mean she has to marry him - if she doesn't want to marry him.
- Thank you.
Then she should tell him instead of trying to What are you trying to do, Grace? I'm trying to slow things down.
I don't want to get married out of high school, I don't even want to get married out of college, I want to get married when I always said I wanted to get married, when I get out of medical school.
Sounds like a plan to me.
All right, I'll be going now.
Wait, George, you're a guy, tell her that she needs to tell Jack her plans.
It's not fair to him, to take the ring, and to have sex and have no intention of getting married.
That's usually a guy move.
Mom, he's just been through so much, I can't tell him, I can't.
Maybe you could tell him.
Oh, no.
No, I can't tell him.
Sure you could, I mean, maybe he doesn't even want to get married.
I mean maybe he feels rushed into it too.
And maybe now that we're having sex, maybe that's enough for him.
And maybe he just wants to have sex with you the rest of his life.
I don't know.
But that's between you and Jack.
But you're so funny, and you're so good with people, and can't you just help me out, please, I'm begging you.
Grace, really, the most I can do is offer to give the two of you a free dinner, I can't get in the middle of this.
No, please, stepfather George, - please get in the middle of this.
- I can't.
Grace, you're an adult now, you need to tell your fiance that you don't want to get married right now.
And if you've told other people how you feel, then you need to tell Jack before one of those people tells him.
At least you can have that much respect for him.
All right.
Thanks a lot for your help.
She called me "stepfather.
" I think we're making progress.
- Hey Jack, did you just get home? - Yeah.
How are things going with Grace? Uh, better than expected.
Okay.
All right, just got to pick up some books, I'm finishing up some classes in the next couple of weeks so I can cash these in.
When you say "better than expected," what did you mean by that? It means I love her more than ever, Dad.
I see.
It's just, I somehow got the impression that it meant you and Grace are - involved physically.
- That too.
Is that how this engagement came about? You agreed to marry Grace if she would No, no.
That was her idea, completely her idea.
Was it a good idea? I'm all healed.
I don't think I'm going to hurt anything.
Your mother thinks that maybe you jumped into this a little too quickly.
Maybe you should have taken a little more time to recover before you made any big decisions like getting married.
Not that we don't love Grace, we love Grace.
I don't think Mom loves Grace.
No, she loves her.
She always thought Madison would be a better choice.
Well, there are lots and lots of choices out there that you haven't even met.
I don't want to meet anyone, I'm not interested in meeting anyone.
I want Grace and I've got Grace.
I gotta go, Dad, I've got class.
Okay.
Why are you saying all this now? No reason.
It's just that your mother wanted me to talk to you about your sudden decision to get married.
Although I don't think it was so sudden, she just got the impression that you and Grace had become close again and she wanted you to know, we both wanted you to know, that if you had rushed into anything, that you could always change your mind.
Dad, after all Grace did for me when I was recovering, how could you and Mom even think that there would be someone else for me? She's the one, Dad.
Grace is it.
And I can't wait to be married to her, whether it's next week, next month or next year.
I'm going to be with Grace the rest of my life.
Okay.
Just so you're sure about what you're doing.
Hey, maybe it's your mom and me who are having second thoughts.
You seem 100% certain you're doing the right thing.
- I am.
Bye, Dad.
- See you.
You're right, they're sleeping together.
Told you, I could tell from the look on his face he's happy, and not in a way I like him to be happy.
Still, we should just let him be happy.
No! His happiness is based on a lie.
He thinks she loves him.
She was going to break up with him! She doesn't love him, not at all.
She accepted his proposal, they're engaged! They're all hot for each other.
What makes you think she doesn't love him? Because I don't love her! I just didn't want her to break things off with him, I didn't want her to marry him.
I like Madison! It's not up to us, dear.
Jack loves who he loves.
I'm not so sure.
Hey, do me a favor, drop it.
I'm leaving.
All right? I'll see you when you get back! Adrian, do you have a minute before you go? I need to talk to you.
Uh, yeah.
I have a minute.
But what do you want to talk to me about that you couldn't have talked to me about last night? Last night, we weren't doing too much talking.
I know.
It was nice.
What's wrong? Why don't we sit down? Because I don't want to sit down.
If I sit down, I might hear something I don't want to hear.
Are you cheating on me or something? No.
I'm not cheating on you.
And I would never cheat on you.
But I've been thinking about us and about New York and about everything and there's just no easy way to say this Adrian.
I'm not sure that I want to be in New York and have my fiancée living here.
Oh.
So you're not going to New York? Because you should go to New York.
You have to go to New York.
This is one of those opportunities of a lifetime.
I know.
And I have to go, I want to go.
But I don't think I want to be engaged.
I want the ring back, and if it works out so that you love me so much that you want to be with me more than you want to live here by yourself and go to school, then we'll get married and live in New York.
What? I don't want to be engaged and living in New York alone.
- I don't want that.
- But that's how it is.
You are engaged and you'll be living in New York.
Adrian, I love you, I really do.
Let's just agree to go our separate ways this summer and see how that feels.
You know, why don't we just go ahead and do what we said we'd do this summer and see how that feels, okay? I'll go to school here and you'll fly back and forth from New York and sometimes I'll go there with you.
What's wrong with that plan? It's not what I want.
Yeah, well it's what I want.
It is! It's what I want! I don't think it's really what you want, you've got one foot in the relationship and one foot out, which leaves you in total conflict, so I'm going to ask you for the ring back and we can stay in touch with each other or we can take a break for a few months and see how we feel at the end of the summer.
It belongs to my family.
If I had bought it for you brand new, I'd just give it to you, but - I want it back.
- Why didn't you tell me this last night? You had sex with me knowing you were going to break up with me.
You've been having sex with me when you don't want to marry me.
What's the difference? There's a big difference! Okay, there's a big difference.
I wasn't sure I could do this, but I woke up this morning and felt I wanted to do this, so I'm doing this.
I'm sorry, Adrian, but I'm just not feeling it.
I'm not feeling that you love me and want to be with me, and I deserve better than that.
And you deserve better than to be obligated to a man that you don't really love.
Wait, wait what are you doing, Adrian? You trying to use sex to get something you don't want? I don't know.
I have to go.
I have to get to the airport, and you have to get to class.
Bye, Adrian.
CLEMENTINE: Hi, Ricky.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
So, you're back.
I am.
I didn't want to just run into you at the bookstore, after that stupid letter I sent you.
I can't believe I did that.
How embarrassing.
Proclaiming my love to you in a note like some middle school girl.
Oh my God, I can't believe I told you all that stuff.
Okay.
Well, did you mean what you said? Yeah, I did, but it was stupid, it was a stupid thing to do.
You didn't need to know how I felt and (CLEARS THROAT) I heard that you and Amy are getting married the day after she graduates.
Congratulations.
And, um, - I'll see you at school, I guess.
- Okay.
Thanks.
And, uh, that's Leo Boykewich so, I have to go.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
This is Clementine.
Clementine, this is Leo Boykewich.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
Well, I got to go, and, um Bye, Ricky.
- See you at school.
- Yeah.
So that was Clementine.
Yeah.
She took the semester off and she just got back into town.
She just stopped in to say hello.
You don't have to explain anything to me.
I didn't know she was coming, it was a complete surprise.
- Whatever.
- She heard Amy and I are getting married, she just wanted to say congratulations and all that.
She's an old friend.
If you keep talking about her, I'm going to think you have some interest in her other than friendship.
I want to talk to you about something before I talk to Ben and Amy about it.
I have a place for them to live.
Them? The two of them? I own property around the butcher shop in New York, I paid a family member to renovate the building for me and I let him live in it while he was doing the construction.
Well, the construction took about three years longer than it was supposed to take, but now I've got myself a three family building in Hell's Kitchen, which isn't too far away from where Ben and Amy are going to school.
I thought I'd offer her the basement apartment and Ben the top floor apartment for four years.
They've got four years to live there and graduate from school.
I figure if the two of them are going to get together, they're going to get together whether they're a floor apart or miles apart.
Do you mind if I ask you why you'd do this for Amy? It's near the butcher shop, and the apartment is bigger than this one.
And if you want to move to New York, there's room for you and John, and all three of you can live there together comfortably, and you can still work at Boykewich Butchers.
I don't want to lose you from the company, I've told you that before.
But, what if I don't want to go to New York and work at the butcher shop, what if I want to stay here? What I want is to get married and have Amy go to school in New York and have her come back here.
Then Amy can have a safe place to live in New York, and she'll be right under Uncle Eddie and he could keep an eye on her.
- And Ben.
- (CHUCKLES) All I do is provide opportunity.
What people do with that opportunity is totally up to them.
Thanks Leo.
If that's what Amy wants to do, then that's a very generous offer.
I don't know what I'm doing.
You have to go to college.
No, I don't.
College isn't for everyone.
It's for you! You want to go, you know you do.
Yeah, but if Henry wants to go to the Philippines and work in a hotel for a year, then good for you, Henry, that's life experience.
Booyah! Yeah.
Booyah! And it's money.
And then after a year, if I want to go to college, I'll have the money to go to college.
If you don't go next year, you won't go.
What are you getting so upset about? It's not like you and I were going off to college together.
We could have, you didn't even apply.
I applied to some colleges, just not to the colleges you're going to.
Right.
I did not apply to the University of the Philippine Partiers.
I think Alice is still in love with you.
No kidding.
She's trying to get me to sleep with her one last time.
Are you going to do that? - No.
- Why not? Because I'm going to go have fun in the Philippines and I don't want to feel guilty about it or be thinking about Alice.
I'm going to enjoy this next year and I'm going to make a lot of money.
How many pesos equal a dollar? Huh? The currency is pesos there, right? Henry, we've been friends since the third grade.
You're lying.
You're not going to the Philippines to work at a hotel, what are you up to? I'm not telling you.
So did you figure out the housing situation in New York? I'll tell you what I figured out.
I figured out that Ricky loves me and he's going to do everything possible to give me everything that I want.
But you, you're not like that.
Which means, I could never be in love with you and I would never marry you, even if there was no Ricky.
So Ben, don't waste your time going to Hudson University.
Go somewhere else.
Because this is never going to happen.
And I want my husband to be comfortable with my living in New York while I'm away from him.
He's not your husband yet.
And, you know, I don't think you should get everything you want.
I mean, after all, you always wanted Ricky and then you got him, and I suspect you don't want him.
And that's why I'm going to New York.
But you don't have to say anything.
How you really feel about getting married can be our little secret.
Hi, Sis.
Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting.
How's Ben? He's so annoying.
He just said I'm only going to New York because I don't really want to be married to Ricky.
- He knows? - No, he doesn't know anything.
And I was just venting when I was talking to you and Adrian.
I'm going to marry Ricky, I want to marry Ricky.
(CHUCKLES) I can't walk away from a wedding a second time.
(CHUCKLES) Hey, Ethan, you left your phone charger at my house.
- Here.
- That's not mine.
Oh, well, I thought it was, it's not mine, it's not my Grandmother's - Maybe it's Brian's.
- No.
It's not.
Are you sure that's even it's a phone charger? Oh no, (CHUCKLES) maybe it's not.
Maybe it's, like, for a tablet or something, sorry.
That's okay.
Okay, well, it was nice seeing you.
Yeah, nice seeing you.
So how was it? How was what? Sex.
Oh, we haven't done anything yet.
Oh, well, if you do and it doesn't turn out so well, then call me.
I would call you if I don't like having sex with Layla? You can.
I mean, I don't think you really care about her, and meaningless sex is meaningless, so you're a really thoughtful, intelligent guy, so you probably won't like it, and even if you do, you'll get bored.
So, yeah, call me.
I completely understand that you just want to try it.
So try it.
And then we can go back to being boyfriend and girlfriend? After I've had sex with another girl? No, no, no, no.
We can be friends, we can always be friends.
I have a boyfriend.
You know, it doesn't really serve you to talk about another girl that way.
Kathy's really nice.
And she's been through a hard time.
By her own choosing, she didn't have to get pregnant.
And hey, who says that's the only guy she had sex with, maybe she put the baby up for adoption because she didn't know who the father is.
Wow.
That's a really rotten thing to say.
I heard it from her two best friends.
And you're telling me because Because you practically called me a slut.
And if there's a slut here, she's the slut.
I didn't call you anything, I was just trying to tell you that Kathy really likes Ethan, and he really liked her until you came along, so if you don't really care about him, then don't break them up.
They're broken up, all right? I can't believe Henry screwed up our senior year, which I guess isn't as bad as him screwing up his life.
Because his life and my life should have been our lives.
We should be together, forever and always.
(CHUCKLES) He was the first guy I slept with and the only guy I want to sleep with.
I don't want anyone else.
Ever.
Alice, sometimes you just have to let go.
What! You're going to give me a lecture on letting go? You! You, who are about to follow a woman who doesn't love you all the way across the country to New York when she's about to get married? Well, sure, it sounds crazy when you put it like that.
But She's not about to get married, I'm sure she isn't.
I know her.
And I've waited four years to get her, and I'm going to get her.
Stop it! Just stop it! No, I'm going to finish it.
And you know why? Because she loves me.
I know she loves me.
That's why she hasn't married Ricky.
They could go get married any time, any day, but they haven't and it's because she's not in love with him, and it's not because she wants to be independent, it's because (SIGHS) She still holds out hope too that someday, she and I can find our way back to each other.
Ben, you need help.
No, I don't.
I know this, Alice.
I know it for a fact.
You didn't.
I did.
(WHISPERS) I hacked her computer.
She has an E-diary.
I've been dying to tell someone.
(SNIFFLES) Hey, Adrian.
(CLEARS THROAT) (SNIFFLES) You look like hell.
I feel like hell.
Did something happen? Yeah.
Yeah.
Something happened.
Did somebody hurt you? Because if someone hurt you, I'll get the campus police.
Or something.
- I'm just getting better or - No one hurt me.
Okay? No one hurts me.
Ever.
Unfortunately, uh, I had to hurt someone.
I had to break things off with Omar.
BOTH: Oh.
I'm serious.
It's over.
All right.
I gave him the ring back.
- What happened? - I just had to be honest.
'Cause that's who I am.
I'm an honest person.
And an honest person doesn't get married when they know it isn't right.
Omar has this wonderful job opportunity in New York, and he begged me to go to New York but I love this school.
I want to finish school before I get married.
I want to start a career before I get married.
I can't go to New York.
I don't want to go to New York.
I have to finish school.
Why can't you do that in New York? They've got, like, bunches of schools there.
RICKY: You know it's a myth that long distance relationships don't work.
That was before computers and cell phones and - You can make it work.
- ADRIAN: Look guys, I don't want you to be surprised, like Omar.
I mean, we had a perfectly nice night last night and, uh then, I knew when I got up this morning, I just I had to do it.
I had to break up with him.
(SIGHS) And Grace and Amy are going to break up with you.
We're friends, right? I mean, more than Grace and Amy and I are friends.
We're friends.
We slept together.
(SNIFFLES) Jack, Grace is just having sex with you, hoping that will buy her time.
Enough time to break up with you.
She doesn't want to get married.
She doesn't want you following her to school either.
She wants to go off to college by herself.
She doesn't even want to think about getting married until she graduates from medical school.
She sees herself marrying a really smart doctor or something.
- She doesn't picture herself married to an athlete.
- RICKY: Adrian! That's enough.
It's true.
Just like Amy doesn't want to marry you.
She loves you.
She just doesn't want to marry you.
You (SIGHS) you're just John's father.
That's all.
She needs you to take care of John so she can have the life that she's always wanted to have.
I'm I'm not I'm not trying to be mean here, they told me this.
And eventually they're going to tell you this.
Or they're not.
Which would be even worse, because you two would be married to them and they don't want to be married to you.
They just don't want to tell you that.
And now they don't have to.
(CHUCKLES) He broke up with you, didn't he? What? (CHUCKLES) Adrian, I've known you for years, and if you're miserable, you want everyone else in the world to be miserable and you don't care how you achieve that, just as long as other people don't have the love that you've always wanted.
So, as your friend, let me tell you, this was a really despicable thing to do, to say these things to Jack and me, whether or not they're true.
'Cause sometimes people say things to other people that they don't mean.
Sometimes people just need to say terrible things out loud, they need to vent.
But the safe place to do that is in therapy.
So why don't you go get some help and stop hurting people around you.
And then, maybe someone can love you.
(CLEARS THROAT) Sorry.
Hi.
Again.
Look Clementine, about that letter Oh, please, we don't have to talk about that again, do we? I don't want to embarrass you, especially after you were so willing to be vulnerable, but (SIGHS) it's never gonna happen between us.
Even if things don't work out with Amy, even if she breaks up with me and we don't get married, it's never going to happen between us.
(CHUCKLES) I have a lot of fond memories of you too, but if Amy Juergens doesn't marry me, it's going to take me a lifetime to get over it.
And I'll be satisfied just being the best dad I can be.
So, friends? Yeah.
So you're back.
Yeah, I'm back.
Don't believe what he just said.
If Amy Juergens doesn't marry him if she doesn't marry him before she goes off to New York, he'll come running to you, believe me.
George? I thought I saw you.
Oh, I thought I heard something.
Like your name? Oh, I dropped something, I was down on the floor, I, uh, I think Grace was looking for you.
She thought you were coming over for dinner.
Yeah, I kind of got hung up at school.
Talking to Adrian.
Oh? Nothing like that.
She, uh, she told me something I'm having a little trouble with.
You know if you have a problem with someone, you should speak directly with that someone, not with someone else.
Adrian said that Grace doesn't love me, she doesn't want to marry me and she wants to go off to school by herself.
Really? Yeah, which I find hard to believe since we're sleeping together again.
Should I know that? She's my stepdaughter, you know, which is pretty much just like my daughter.
Come on man, I need some advice here and I can't talk to my mom and dad because I don't think they like Grace.
- Why not? - I don't think they've ever thought that she cares that much about me.
- No? - No.
Well, maybe she does, maybe she doesn't.
Maybe some days she does and some days she doesn't.
Women.
They're moody.
They're one mood after another.
Do you think she doesn't love me? I think she loves you, Jack.
I just don't know she's ready to get married right now.
But I don't know.
I don't know anything.
Maybe she doesn't even know.
I mean, the end of high school is a very stressful time.
You're facing the unknown or something.
All right, well, I guess, I should go out there and talk to her, even though I don't wanna really hear what she has to say.
I don't know Jack, I think you should hear whatever she has to say.
Okay, well, thanks.
For nothing.
(SIGHS) (DOOR CLOSES) Hey! I saved you some dinner.
It's over there on the stove.
Where were you? Uh, talking to Adrian.
- Oh, at school? - Yeah.
Look, if you don't love me and you don't want to marry me and you want to go off to school on your own, you should tell me.
That's what Adrian said that you said.
Jack, that's just a ridiculous lie.
That's just a horrible, horrible, mean, vicious lie! That's what she said.
Why would she make up something like that? - Yeah, why would she? - Did she and Omar break up or something? Yeah, she broke up with him.
- Adrian broke up with Omar.
- Yeah.
Oh, I get it.
She's still in love with me.
She's in love with you? Yes, I never should have kissed her.
I'm telling you, she's in love with me.
And she broke up with Omar and now she's trying to break us up because she's still in love with me! Well, she must be in love with Amy too, because she told Ricky that Amy's not in love with him and she doesn't want to marry him.
Excuse me, I just want to text Tom.
I was in the middle of texting Tom when you came in.
Just one second.
(PHONE CHIMING) What's going on? Um, oh, just nothing, there's just this really you know, this ad for shoes.
It's just unbelievable sale.
(CHUCKLES) Must be.
You dropped your book.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I mean, it's really a sale.
Hey, do you want some like, uh, dessert or anything? (STUTTERING) Like some ice cream or something? I think we have some ice cream.
Yeah, but I don't really want anything to eat.
I think I'm going to go to bed soon.
I've got that final tomorrow.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We should just go to bed then.
Yeah.
We should.
If you don't need to study.
No, I studied, I'm ready.
Um did anything else happen at school today, other than Clementine coming back? Nope, nothing that I think would interest you, just school stuff.
All right, thanks again for telling me about Clementine.
I think it's really important for us to be honest with each other.
Yeah, especially with us getting married and your going away to school.
Yeah.
I love you.
I love you too.
Oh, geez, I did forget something.
Something big.
- What? - I can't believe I didn't tell you.
Leo came by.
Oh, oh, gosh, yeah, that's right, uh, - did you get a raise or something? - No.
He actually came by to tell me something that he wanted me to discuss with you, something for you.
Oh, really? What's that? He has a building in New York, a three family building.
He's going to offer Ben the top floor apartment and he's going to offer you the basement apartment, for four years.
It's big enough for the three of us if we decide we don't like being apart and John and I want to move to New York.
Ricky, what? That's crazy.
I don't want to live in the same building as Ben Boykewich.
I'm not worried about it, I think it's fine, I'm not concerned about you and Ben and it's a free apartment.
It's a safe place for you and you'll have people you know nearby if you need help, Leo's got family right there.
I don't know, there's got to be another way.
I don't know another way, and you want to be there, so what the heck? I don't know.
Maybe Leo is just trying to break us up.
I don't think Leo is that kind of guy.
I think he's just offering you an opportunity and you should take it.
I don't think there's any other alternative.
Well, my mom had offered her help but, then again, there's always strings attached when she or my dad offer their help.
So you really don't think it would be a problem? I don't think it would be a problem.
(CHUCKLES) You're going to be my wife.
(CHUCKLES)
