Well, I guess it's not a hit-and run if he missed us.
Oh, God, look at the time.
You want to go home? How often do we get a night off like this? And Charlie's already there with Owen and Claud.
Okay.
You're right.

Good.
So I don't feel guilty about doin' this.
-You moron! -Ow! You ran a red light! What were you thinking? It was yellow, man! It was yellow when we were still half a block away! It was a yellow light.
Forget it.
I'm gonna see how the other car is.

I lose my license.
My mom and dad would kill me.
Come on.
Bad idea.
Okay? See? You're the bad idea.
Hey.
Come on.
Let's get outta here.
Everybody wants to live Like they wanna live And everybody wants to love Like they wanna love Everybody wants to be Closer to free Closer to free Joe, are you sure we're gonna have enough room? Mom and Dad have so many friends.
Sweetheart, don't worry.
But everybody is RSVP-ing.
I thought with their 31st anniversary, there'd be some no-shows.
That's because you made a beautiful invitation.
What about Mom and Dad? You're sure they don't suspect? It's fine.
Hey.
I'm sorry we're late.
We got hung up lookin' for the place cards.
Where do you buy those things, anyway? At the store that I put on your list.
-The list.
-The list.
Haven't seen you around here in a while, huh? Hey, Joe.
How's it goin'? You know what, guys, why are we even meeting? I mean, everything I ask you to do you're gonna forget, and I'm gonna end up having to do it on my own last minute.
Why don't you just go home? And I'll take care of the party.
- Sounds good to me.
- Oh, come on.
Guys! Whoa! Wait, wait, wait.
Come on.
Everybody, calm down, take a breath.
We can do this.
Okay? I don't feel like gettin' yelled at for, like, 45 minutes.
Let's face it.
Why are we even doin' this? It's their 31st anniversary.
No one celebrates 31 years of marriage.
Do you really need to ask that, Charlie, after last year's debacle? No.
The party for their 30th was fine.
Pizza and beer on paper plates.
That was kinda lame, man.
You planned it with me.
We-- Charlie's right.
That wasn't that bad.
All their friends were there.
There was plenty of beer.
-Bailey, shut up.
You know, I don't get you guys.
-Shut up.
They do so much for you, and this is the gratitude you show? Hello! Hey! Hello.
I have been standing out there for hours.
Hey! -Hey.
-Hey, Claud.
Hi.
The front door's locked.
I tried calling the restaurant, like, 25 times.
What number did you call? We've been here the whole time.
This one.
Oh, no! No, no, no, no.
We changed this a year ago.
Where've you been? You mean where haven't I been.
Claud, what are you doing here? We had a plan.
You're supposed to surprise them.
I faxed you the details.
So my tour ended early.
I missed you guys.
Nice to see you, too, Joe.
No, I'm glad to see you, Claud.
It's just now we're gonna have to hide you for the two whole days.
So? I mean, somebody's gotta have some floor space for me, right? Besides Julia? Hey! Have you seen my poly-sci notes? How was your family meeting? Great.
Except my idiot brothers are suddenly acting as though the anniversary party was my idea.
Well, whose was it? That's not the point.
You are so dead! Give me that.
You didn't do the reading.
No, but my fiance did, and she's a genius.
Fiance.
That's kinda weird, huh? Well, we'd better get used to it, 'cause we're gonna have to announce it at the party.
I don't know.
I was thinking maybe we shouldn't.
I mean, it's their night, right? And we don't want to upstage them.
Well, we weren't supposed to know this, but Your mom told my mom that she's actually praying for us to get engaged before we all go to Italy this summer.
Mmm.
What? Nothing.
Just I don't know.
Sometimes I wonder if we're doing this for them or if we're doing it for us.
Well, just as long as we're doing it.
That's all I care about.
I'm gonna be late for class.
Mmm-hmm.
You are gonna be late for class.
- Hi.
It's us.
- Leave a message.
Julia? Hi.
It's Mom.
I just wanted to remind you to take the car into the shop today.
I told the guy you'd be there before 6:00, so Oh, and tell Justin your father and I made hotel reservations in Venice for the first week in July.
I think -Hello.
Yeah.
-Oh, you're there.
We're supposed to be in Siena that week.
Oh, right, the horse race.
You two will be alone No, no, no.
No, not at all.
Come on.
What, are you kidding? We love hanging out with you guys.
Yeah.
Home sweet home.
Ugh.
Wow, does Dad know you're smoking? Does your coach know? Those aren't mine.
Will, I didn't know you smoked.
That's because I don't, Claud, because I have a functioning brain.
Listen, it's no big deal.
I have a cigarette every once in a while.
But only when I drink.
Uh-huh-huh.
And judging from your pyramid here, you're up to, what, like five packs a day? Look, Claud, I know you disapprove.
Disapprove? No.
No, envy's more like it.
What? You're free.
I mean, you can blow off all your classes.
You can sleep till noon.
You can do whatever you want.
Now, me? Every second-- Every second's scheduled.
I mean, if I want to smoke or drink or You know, mash with some cellist from Holland, I have to drug Mrs.
Neinlieben first.
You think your life is all planned out for you? You know Dad's got me working at the restaurant three nights a week? So? That's free beer.
And the money you make doesn't go into some trust.
And as soon as I graduate, he expects me to work there full time, start training to manage the place.
so that in 4.
5 years, or whatever it is, I can take over and he can retire.
You ever tried saying no? It's not so easy, Claud.
Why not? You remember how ugly it got with Charlie? Well, don't worry.
Bailey'll find the courage.
Trust me.
-Will-- -I mean You have to, right? Not now.
What? What are you talking about? Nothing.
Nothing.
Hello.
Can I help you? Oh, hey.
I'm Salinger, Julia Salinger.
Salinger Let me see.
My mom called.
Oh, right.
You're the one that goes to Stanford.
Oh, God.
She actually told you that.
Yeah, she's very proud.
And she said that you had some engine noise? Oh, no, it actually-- It's fine.
It's just a squeak.
You know, when my CD player's on you can't even hear it.
She's She likes to panic.
Is it a squeal or a chirp? No, it's more like a I sound like the shower scene from Psycho.
I'm sorry.
No, you're not that scary.
Okay, so I'll call you? You'll call me? Yeah, how about I call you? Great, yeah, that'd be Okay, thank-- I'll see you.
Julia.
-If I'm gonna call you -Yeah.
I need a phone number.
Right.
Mmm.
How do you grill these so perfectly? Uh, well, you know, it's something my dad taught me.
He has a restaurant.
It has to do with getting the oven hot enough.
Mmm.
Thanks.
Okay.
So, where were we? You were telling me about your designs.
Right, right Well, as soon as I get some of the kinks worked out, I'm gonna build my own spec house.
Yeah, the painting and construction is just something I do to pay the bills.
Charlie-- I was up till, like, 3:00 in the morning trying to work out this whole ceiling problem-- Charlie I looked at your model a week ago.
Everything's still exactly the same.
The pencil's still clipped up on the kitchen wall.
The compass is pointing at the same direction Right at the bedroom.
What? It's okay.
I'm sure you'll be a big architect someday.
And even if not I didn't come here to make it with Frank Lloyd Wright.
I came here to make it with you.
Charlie.
It's me-- Felicia.
Your truck's outside, Charlie, I know you're here.
Just don't lose that thought.
It's not a great time, Felicia.
No, it really isn't, is it? Uh, is there any way we could talk about this later? I'll call you first thing in the morning.
I'm pregnant.
You're-- What? I was late.
I peed on a stick.
I'm pregnant.
Oh, man.
I'm gonna go talk to someone about it tomorrow, and I think you should be there.
Yeah, uh Tomorrow I'm a little jammed up.
Hmm.
Well, here's the address and the time.
I'd really like you to be there.
It's a digital scrapbook with my new album and press photos and stuff.
You know, all on DVD.
But that's why I have to sneak back over to the house.
I have to have the old scrapbook scanned before the party.
This is kind of Mom, right? It's silk.
No.
No, no, no, Julia.
This is like something Mrs.
Neinlieben would wear.
Mom's more vital, more sensual, more More this This.
Yeah, right, Claud.
And we could get one for Dad, too.
You don't think mom would look amazing in this? You know, Dad would really-- Okay, could we please not even conjecture as to their sex life? Besides, people don't really wear stuff like that.
If you say so.
What does that mean? Nothing.
Just You know.
You? No, Claudia.
I don't wear them all the time.
JustYou know, for special occasions.
Special occasions.
Like what? I don't know.
Like sex.
Wait You've-- You've had sex? Don't you even read my emails? I mean, I have been dropping some serious hints.
Well, yeah, but I mean That never occurred to me.
I mean, when? With who-- whom? What, you want, like, names and dates? There are names and dates? Relax, Jule, it's just You know, just A couple of guys.
Wait, I'm sorry You've had sex with different people? I've been on the road a very long time.
Oh.
Are you okay? Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just You probably did the same thing in high school, though, right? No, I was with Justin in high school, remember? Before that.
Really? Wow.
Oh, no, no.
Jule, that's That is amazing.
Yeah, I mean, you're just like Mom and Dad, you know.
You found your soul-mate early and You know, meantime we're just out here flailing around trying to catch up.
Not yet, not yet.
Now.
Oh, no, no, no.
Okay, we need to talk about this.
What? You know that the change comes on the downbeat.
Okay, you've done it a thousand times right.
But the last three times you're not there.
It was fine, Will.
Look, Bailey, don't lie to me.
Okay, I know what you're thinking about.
What? Whatever it is that kept you from telling Claudia.
Will, come on.
I tell Claudia and two seconds later, Mom and Dad know, too.
So? Don't they need to know if you're leaving school? Not yet.
Well, how could it have not come up? You're on academic probation.
Haven't they seen your transcript? Mom and Dad saw mine, like, weeks ago.
What? Bailey, you didn't.
You stood by the mailbox and waited? I just wanted to tell them myself.
Which you're planning for when? I mean, Bailey, We're hitting the road the day after tomorrow.
Well, not necessarily, Will.
We might not get the gig.
It's almost a lock.
Not if we blow the try-out tonight.
No, but you better not blow this on purpose so you don't have to face your old man.
Bailey, I don't get it.
This whole thing was your idea.
I know, Will, butbut really, think about it.
Being a roadie? Hanging lights and dragging drums around for these guys? I mean It's not exactly my life's dream, you know? It wasn't supposed to be.
It's a way to get out on our own, to find something that we want that matters to us.
I thought that's what you wanted.
Seattle, Chicago, Detroit.
Then, fly back to Munich.
But What? That sounds incredible.
I know.
I know.
I just This is the first time I've been home, you know, in almost a year.
I was just thinking, would it be such a terrible thing if You know, if I Stopped.
What do you mean? Stopped recording, stopped touring? Stopped everything.
Just for a little while.
Just for a year or two.
Claudia, a year or two? It's just a thought.
I don't understand.
This is what you've been working for your whole life.
I thought you were loving it.
I am.
No, I am.
But, Ross, I've been doing this since I was 11 years old.
I mean, I've traveled all over the world.
I've played with all these amazing people, but I miss my family.
It sounds stupid, but I miss dinners at the restaurant, everyone making fun of me because I order the same thing every week.
The manicotti.
Okay, maybe it's just a matter of slowing down.
But then again.
Maybe it's just time I came home.
We can help you, whichever you choose.
We can put you with couples who want to adopt or recommend doctors if you choose not to have the baby.
The important thing is Don't feel pressure.
It's up to you.
Take the time to think, talk to friends, and-- I'm sorry.
I thought the appointment was supposed to start now.
This is the father? -Mmm.
-Did I miss it? I'm sorry.
You want me to wait outside.
No.
You're just in time, really.
I was just about to get into the parents' responsibilities when the baby's carried to term.
Actually, you know what, I can just take these brochures-- Wait, wait, wait.
When the baby is You're thinking about keeping it? Well Putting it up for adoption.
Okay, look, um I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Well, Charlie, I'm not asking you to raise it.
But I mean, what if you have it and you change your mind? What if you suddenly decide to keep it and you need something from me.
I mean, money or something.
You're putting me on the hook if you do this.
You are already on the hook.
You had unprotected sex, and you conceived.
And frankly, I don't have a whole lot of patience for men who never think past their next conquest, who think they can have sex like that and just blow off the consequences.
Look, you don't know me, okay? We had sex that way twice.
And I'm not some sort of deadbeat dad here, so I don't need a lecture from you.
I'm not so sure about that.
You show up an hour late, probably on purpose.
And the second you hear your child's mother might not want to have an abortion-- Okay, look.
You know what? I-- I do not want to do this here.
Okay, I'm gonna take these pamphlets you gave me, and I'm gonna think.
Okay? Thanks.
You really helped me a lot.
Good.
Hi, can I maybe get some change for the pay phone please? Thanks.
Hi.
You're the guy from the garage, right? I'm Julia Salinger from last night.
With the Psycho squeak.
Right.
I thought my car might be done, but no, so I have to call somebody to give me a ride home.
I had to get some change for the pay phone, you know.
Thank you.
So have you been working on cars long? Since high school.
Really? Where did you go to high school? Grant.
Same as you.
Wow, really? Were you in some of my classes? 'Cause I don't-- I dropped out.
Oh.
How come? Oh, you know what, never mind.
I shouldn't None of my business.
I'm gonna get going.
Well, do you want a beer or something? Me? Oh, no, thank-- I don't You know what, I came to use the phone.
They wouldn't let you use the phone over at the shop? Uh No, he was on it.
The guy? What guy, Sergio? Yes, right, Sergio.
And what did Sergio say about your car? He didn't exactly, he He He was-- Well, nevermind.
Do you want to get out of here? My place is just right around the corner.
Oh, you know what? Thank you, but I really did come to use the pay phone.
It's over there.
Thanks.
I'm sorry.
-My My fault.
Sorry.
-Don't worry about it.
Come on, man.

I heard, Will! Plus, look at us, huh? We are standing behind the scenes of a cultural event that is touching the multitudes.
Will, relax, man.
It's just a concert.
No, no.
I will not let you minimize this, okay? You are refusing to let yourself love this because you're not sure you'll find the gonads to tell your old man-- No.
That's totally not what I'm doing.
Only 10,000 fans watching.
No pressure.
No sad story Heroes just Like Cassius Clay We're helpin' people Along the way Let's go! And we're bein' cool Because of that With all my fly boys got my back I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be Oh, won't you tell me No sad story No sad story No sad story What are you doin'? Get off the stage? No sad story You guys didn't screw that up so bad.
Really? Man, did you just feel that? Did you see the girl in the front row with the bouncy-- This is it.
This is it! Yes.
This plus the girl in the front row with the-- It's my life.
I don't need to talk to anybody.
I don't care.
Tomorrow, we get on that bus, and we're gone.
Yeah! I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be Is that your lunch? Very healthy.
Are you tryin' to sound like Mom or can you just not help it any more? Oh, that's nice.
Thanks.
Is Charlie here? He called.
He can't make it.
Some kind of personal crisis.
Hey, are these the yesses? What is it this time? No, don't tell me.
I'm better off not knowing.
God, I am sounding like Mom.
Hey, wait a second.
The McGraths can't make it? Mom and Dad are gonna be so bummed.
Don't worry.
They've got plenty of other friends going.
Yeah, I know.
I just really want them to be happy.
It's a party with all their favorite people.
What's going to make them unhappy? Nothing.
They just don't need any more bad news, you know? Oh, you mean, besides Claudia? Claudia? What's going on with Claudia? Well, about her dropping out of the tour.
What? She didn't tell you? No.
She's not going back.
She wants to come home for some reason.
Oh, man, that-- They're gonna freak.
Mom's gonna totally-- What? Well, at least we still have you and Justin.
What does that mean? To make 'em happy.
You guys will announce your engagement, and hopefully they'll forget the rest of this stuff.
No.
I am not-- Bailey, my life is not some party favor for Mom and Dad.
I'm not making a life decision so they can have a good anniversary.
The decision's already made.
We're just talking about the announcement.
You don't know that it's decided.
Well, isn't it? Well, I don't know, Bailey.
Well, I thought you and Mom and Dad-- Don't tell me what Mom and Dad want.
It's my life.
-Okay? -Julia-- No.
You and Charlie and Claudia get to do what you want And so can I.
They have a bad party, well, then tough.
Is that what you think, that I get to do what I want? I don't want to hear it, okay? Hi.
Kirsten Bennett.
We met yesterday.
Yeah.
Is she seeing the doctor? Look, I'm sorry.
I mean, getting angry at you.
It was I was way off base.
It's just a lot of cases I see, sometimes I lose objectivity, and I let my own issues get in the way.
Forget it.
That's fine.
I understand.
Well, you really You don't, but Anyway.
Why? Because you-- You think I'm this guy that's scared to death that I may be having a baby? Well, really, that's not me at all.
I mean, she's sitting in there right now, talking to that doctor About whether or not to abort, and you know what no one's saying? No one's saying, "Could he raise the child?" The father.
Which Frankly, is kinda sad.
'Cause that might be nice some day To have kids.
I don't understand.
Why can't you? There's no way.
Wouldn't know how to do it.
Of course you would.
Ask my parents.
They barely trust me to look after their other kids.
Your parents? Who cares what they think? Mine want me to marry the first guy who asks.
Sorry.
First doctor who asks.
Anyway How much do parents really know? They know somethin'.
They know more than me.
Wow! Mom did some redecorating.
Yeah.
It's very Martha.
We should be okay.
She's supposed to take Owen to piano after school, and Dad never leaves the restaurant before 3:00.
We're safe.
I'll just grab these scrapbooks before they find out that-- Well I guess they really needed the space.
Claud, if they knew you were coming home, I'm sure they would have-- No.
I know.
Yeah.
I just-- Well, we should find the scrapbooks.
They're probably here somewhere.
Hey, look, I'm sorry We can't wait for your friend.
He'll catch up with the tour in Sacramento.
Yeah.
I'm sure he will.
So I looked you up in the yearbook last night when I got home.
I remember you now.
Oh, you do, huh? Mmm-hmm.
You were a senior when I was a sophomore, and you were in a band with Brennan Brown and his little brother Kendrick, who was in my class.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
You played guitar.
And at the time, I remember thinking you were kinda cute.
At the time, huh? Yeah, well, you were a senior and in a band and drove a motorcycle, and I never thought that you would ever be interested in someone like me, so Yeah.
You were probably right.
At the time.
Man, I gotta-- I gotta close up if you wanna wait.
I don't wanna wait.
Why did Julia ask me to do this? I have horrible handwriting.
Punishment.
Yeah.
That's sounds right.
So you're gonna go to the party tonight, and then catch up with the tour in Sacramento? I don't know, man.
You know Dad would murder me.
So? So So, what, you're saying I should just be like you? Just go take off and do whatever I want and forget about who gets hurt? No.
Not at all.
No.
What I did was What I did was worse.
I mean, all I did all my life was do the opposite of what Dad wanted.
I mean, I still never made any of my own choices.
And you know what happened? I never got what I wanted, and now Dad and I hardly even talk.
No.
All I'm saying is, you need to figure out what you want, what you really want and do that.
Don't think about anything else.
Just Just figure it out I mean, what do you want? Hey! Hey.
Yeah, listen, I didn't want to interrupt.
I brought you some crullers and some coffee.
I don't know how you take it.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Uh Griffin, you know what? Last night was great, and I think you're an amazing guy-- Yeah.
Look Don't worry about it.
Car's out front.
It's ready to go.
No.
That's not It's just I have a boyfriend.
Uh-huh.
So, what, did you two get in a fight last night or something? No.
It's not that.
It's He's cheating on you, is that it? No.
He would never-- It's I was just-- I was trying to figure stuff out.
You know? Yeah.
Well, maybe you should've been tryin' to figure stuff out with him.
Oh, hi.
Mr.
Salinger, right? Charlie.
Yeah.
Are you here with Felicia? Uh, no.
No, actually.
Was there something that you needed? I just wanted to let you know how things turned out.

If you hadn't flaked when he asked you to work here-- Bailey.
Listen to yourself.
Man, what? First it's dad's fault, and now it's mine? Come on.
You wake up five years from now and you're not doin' what you want, don't go sayin', "If Charlie had done this or Dad had said that.
" Okay? 'Cause you'll have no one to blame but yourself.
Okay, everybody quiet.
They're coming.
-Here they come! -All right, buddy.
Surprise! All right! Thank you! Yeah.
We gotcha.

I had an accident.
I cracked up the Jeep.
Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay.
Was anyone hurt? No.
No one was hurt.
Bailey, what happened to you? Why did you suddenly-- Wait.
Charlie, wait.
Listen, you don't have to.
Okay? I mean I know.
I I saw it.
I saw it, and you were right, Julia.
Whatever's Missing Whatever my life is It's nobody's fault.
It's not Mom and Dad's fault.
Or anybody else's.
It's just me.
So, um So I'm gonna go get help.
I already made a call to a place.
There's This rehab place.
So I'm going.
When are you gonna go? Uh, now.
I'm gonna go now.
So I guess Do you need a ride? Yeah.
Yeah.
That'd be good.
I'll come with you.
Me, too.
If he hadn't swerved Look, he's leaving.
Well, I guess it's not a hit-and run if he missed us.
Oh, God, look at the time.
You want to go home? How often do we get a night off like this? And Charlie's already there with Owen and Claud.
Okay.
You're right.
Let's go.
Hey.
You okay, man? Yeah.
I'm okay.
Are you-- Are you okay? Are you cut anywhere? You got bruised by the seat belt? No.
I'm fine, man.
I'm fine, Will.
I'm okay.
Good.
Good.
So I don't feel guilty about doin' this.
-You moron! -Ow! You ran a red light! What were you thinking? It was yellow, man! It was yellow when we were still half a block away! It was a yellow light.
Forget it.
I'm gonna see how the other car is.
Oh, hey, hey, hey.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
-What? -They're fine, man.
Look.
They're okay.
-Nothin' happened to 'em.
-I want to make sure! Will, listen.
You go over there right now, they smell beer on your breath, they call the cops.
I lose my license.
My mom and dad would kill me.
Come on.
Bad idea.
Okay? See? You're the bad idea.
Hey.
Come on.
Let's get outta here.
Everybody wants to live Like they wanna live And everybody wants to love Like they wanna love Everybody wants to be Closer to free Closer to free Joe, are you sure we're gonna have enough room? Mom and Dad have so many friends.
Sweetheart, don't worry.
But everybody is RSVP-ing.
I thought with their 31st anniversary, there'd be some no-shows.
That's because you made a beautiful invitation.
What about Mom and Dad? You're sure they don't suspect? It's fine.
Hey.
I'm sorry we're late.
We got hung up lookin' for the place cards.
Where do you buy those things, anyway? At the store that I put on your list.
-The list.
-The list.
Haven't seen you around here in a while, huh? Hey, Joe.
How's it goin'? You know what, guys, why are we even meeting? I mean, everything I ask you to do you're gonna forget, and I'm gonna end up having to do it on my own last minute.
Why don't you just go home? And I'll take care of the party.
- Sounds good to me.
- Oh, come on.
Guys! Whoa! Wait, wait, wait.
Come on.
Everybody, calm down, take a breath.
We can do this.
Okay? I don't feel like gettin' yelled at for, like, 45 minutes.
Let's face it.
Why are we even doin' this? It's their 31st anniversary.
No one celebrates 31 years of marriage.
Do you really need to ask that, Charlie, after last year's debacle? No.
The party for their 30th was fine.
Pizza and beer on paper plates.
That was kinda lame, man.
You planned it with me.
We-- Charlie's right.
That wasn't that bad.
All their friends were there.
There was plenty of beer.
-Bailey, shut up.
You know, I don't get you guys.
-Shut up.
They do so much for you, and this is the gratitude you show? Hello! Hey! Hello.
I have been standing out there for hours.
Hey! -Hey.
-Hey, Claud.
Hi.
The front door's locked.
I tried calling the restaurant, like, 25 times.
What number did you call? We've been here the whole time.
This one.
Oh, no! No, no, no, no.
We changed this a year ago.
Where've you been? You mean where haven't I been.
Claud, what are you doing here? We had a plan.
You're supposed to surprise them.
I faxed you the details.
So my tour ended early.
I missed you guys.
Nice to see you, too, Joe.
No, I'm glad to see you, Claud.
It's just now we're gonna have to hide you for the two whole days.
So? I mean, somebody's gotta have some floor space for me, right? Besides Julia? Hey! Have you seen my poly-sci notes? How was your family meeting? Great.
Except my idiot brothers are suddenly acting as though the anniversary party was my idea.
Well, whose was it? That's not the point.
You are so dead! Give me that.
You didn't do the reading.
No, but my fiance did, and she's a genius.
Fiance.
That's kinda weird, huh? Well, we'd better get used to it, 'cause we're gonna have to announce it at the party.
I don't know.
I was thinking maybe we shouldn't.
I mean, it's their night, right? And we don't want to upstage them.
Well, we weren't supposed to know this, but Your mom told my mom that she's actually praying for us to get engaged before we all go to Italy this summer.
Mmm.
What? Nothing.
Just I don't know.
Sometimes I wonder if we're doing this for them or if we're doing it for us.
Well, just as long as we're doing it.
That's all I care about.
I'm gonna be late for class.
Mmm-hmm.
You are gonna be late for class.
- Hi.
It's us.
- Leave a message.
Julia? Hi.
It's Mom.
I just wanted to remind you to take the car into the shop today.
I told the guy you'd be there before 6:00, so Oh, and tell Justin your father and I made hotel reservations in Venice for the first week in July.
I think -Hello.
Yeah.
-Oh, you're there.
We're supposed to be in Siena that week.
Oh, right, the horse race.
You two will be alone No, no, no.
No, not at all.
Come on.
What, are you kidding? We love hanging out with you guys.
Yeah.
Home sweet home.
Ugh.
Wow, does Dad know you're smoking? Does your coach know? Those aren't mine.
Will, I didn't know you smoked.
That's because I don't, Claud, because I have a functioning brain.
Listen, it's no big deal.
I have a cigarette every once in a while.
But only when I drink.
Uh-huh-huh.
And judging from your pyramid here, you're up to, what, like five packs a day? Look, Claud, I know you disapprove.
Disapprove? No.
No, envy's more like it.
What? You're free.
I mean, you can blow off all your classes.
You can sleep till noon.
You can do whatever you want.
Now, me? Every second-- Every second's scheduled.
I mean, if I want to smoke or drink or You know, mash with some cellist from Holland, I have to drug Mrs.
Neinlieben first.
You think your life is all planned out for you? You know Dad's got me working at the restaurant three nights a week? So? That's free beer.
And the money you make doesn't go into some trust.
And as soon as I graduate, he expects me to work there full time, start training to manage the place.
so that in 4.
5 years, or whatever it is, I can take over and he can retire.
You ever tried saying no? It's not so easy, Claud.
Why not? You remember how ugly it got with Charlie? Well, don't worry.
Bailey'll find the courage.
Trust me.
-Will-- -I mean You have to, right? Not now.
What? What are you talking about? Nothing.
Nothing.
Hello.
Can I help you? Oh, hey.
I'm Salinger, Julia Salinger.
Salinger Let me see.
My mom called.
Oh, right.
You're the one that goes to Stanford.
Oh, God.
She actually told you that.
Yeah, she's very proud.
And she said that you had some engine noise? Oh, no, it actually-- It's fine.
It's just a squeak.
You know, when my CD player's on you can't even hear it.
She's She likes to panic.
Is it a squeal or a chirp? No, it's more like a I sound like the shower scene from Psycho.
I'm sorry.
No, you're not that scary.
Okay, so I'll call you? You'll call me? Yeah, how about I call you? Great, yeah, that'd be Okay, thank-- I'll see you.
Julia.
-If I'm gonna call you -Yeah.
I need a phone number.
Right.
Mmm.
How do you grill these so perfectly? Uh, well, you know, it's something my dad taught me.
He has a restaurant.
It has to do with getting the oven hot enough.
Mmm.
Thanks.
Okay.
So, where were we? You were telling me about your designs.
Right, right Well, as soon as I get some of the kinks worked out, I'm gonna build my own spec house.
Yeah, the painting and construction is just something I do to pay the bills.
Charlie-- I was up till, like, 3:00 in the morning trying to work out this whole ceiling problem-- Charlie I looked at your model a week ago.
Everything's still exactly the same.
The pencil's still clipped up on the kitchen wall.
The compass is pointing at the same direction Right at the bedroom.
What? It's okay.
I'm sure you'll be a big architect someday.
And even if not I didn't come here to make it with Frank Lloyd Wright.
I came here to make it with you.
Charlie.
It's me-- Felicia.
Your truck's outside, Charlie, I know you're here.
Just don't lose that thought.
It's not a great time, Felicia.
No, it really isn't, is it? Uh, is there any way we could talk about this later? I'll call you first thing in the morning.
I'm pregnant.
You're-- What? I was late.
I peed on a stick.
I'm pregnant.
Oh, man.
I'm gonna go talk to someone about it tomorrow, and I think you should be there.
Yeah, uh Tomorrow I'm a little jammed up.
Hmm.
Well, here's the address and the time.
I'd really like you to be there.
It's a digital scrapbook with my new album and press photos and stuff.
You know, all on DVD.
But that's why I have to sneak back over to the house.
I have to have the old scrapbook scanned before the party.
This is kind of Mom, right? It's silk.
No.
No, no, no, Julia.
This is like something Mrs.
Neinlieben would wear.
Mom's more vital, more sensual, more More this This.
Yeah, right, Claud.
And we could get one for Dad, too.
You don't think mom would look amazing in this? You know, Dad would really-- Okay, could we please not even conjecture as to their sex life? Besides, people don't really wear stuff like that.
If you say so.
What does that mean? Nothing.
Just You know.
You? No, Claudia.
I don't wear them all the time.
JustYou know, for special occasions.
Special occasions.
Like what? I don't know.
Like sex.
Wait You've-- You've had sex? Don't you even read my emails? I mean, I have been dropping some serious hints.
Well, yeah, but I mean That never occurred to me.
I mean, when? With who-- whom? What, you want, like, names and dates? There are names and dates? Relax, Jule, it's just You know, just A couple of guys.
Wait, I'm sorry You've had sex with different people? I've been on the road a very long time.
Oh.
Are you okay? Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just You probably did the same thing in high school, though, right? No, I was with Justin in high school, remember? Before that.
Really? Wow.
Oh, no, no.
Jule, that's That is amazing.
Yeah, I mean, you're just like Mom and Dad, you know.
You found your soul-mate early and You know, meantime we're just out here flailing around trying to catch up.
Not yet, not yet.
Now.
Oh, no, no, no.
Okay, we need to talk about this.
What? You know that the change comes on the downbeat.
Okay, you've done it a thousand times right.
But the last three times you're not there.
It was fine, Will.
Look, Bailey, don't lie to me.
Okay, I know what you're thinking about.
What? Whatever it is that kept you from telling Claudia.
Will, come on.
I tell Claudia and two seconds later, Mom and Dad know, too.
So? Don't they need to know if you're leaving school? Not yet.
Well, how could it have not come up? You're on academic probation.
Haven't they seen your transcript? Mom and Dad saw mine, like, weeks ago.
What? Bailey, you didn't.
You stood by the mailbox and waited? I just wanted to tell them myself.
Which you're planning for when? I mean, Bailey, We're hitting the road the day after tomorrow.
Well, not necessarily, Will.
We might not get the gig.
It's almost a lock.
Not if we blow the try-out tonight.
No, but you better not blow this on purpose so you don't have to face your old man.
Bailey, I don't get it.
This whole thing was your idea.
I know, Will, butbut really, think about it.
Being a roadie? Hanging lights and dragging drums around for these guys? I mean It's not exactly my life's dream, you know? It wasn't supposed to be.
It's a way to get out on our own, to find something that we want that matters to us.
I thought that's what you wanted.
Seattle, Chicago, Detroit.
Then, fly back to Munich.
But What? That sounds incredible.
I know.
I know.
I just This is the first time I've been home, you know, in almost a year.
I was just thinking, would it be such a terrible thing if You know, if I Stopped.
What do you mean? Stopped recording, stopped touring? Stopped everything.
Just for a little while.
Just for a year or two.
Claudia, a year or two? It's just a thought.
I don't understand.
This is what you've been working for your whole life.
I thought you were loving it.
I am.
No, I am.
But, Ross, I've been doing this since I was 11 years old.
I mean, I've traveled all over the world.
I've played with all these amazing people, but I miss my family.
It sounds stupid, but I miss dinners at the restaurant, everyone making fun of me because I order the same thing every week.
The manicotti.
Okay, maybe it's just a matter of slowing down.
But then again.
Maybe it's just time I came home.
We can help you, whichever you choose.
We can put you with couples who want to adopt or recommend doctors if you choose not to have the baby.
The important thing is Don't feel pressure.
It's up to you.
Take the time to think, talk to friends, and-- I'm sorry.
I thought the appointment was supposed to start now.
This is the father? -Mmm.
-Did I miss it? I'm sorry.
You want me to wait outside.
No.
You're just in time, really.
I was just about to get into the parents' responsibilities when the baby's carried to term.
Actually, you know what, I can just take these brochures-- Wait, wait, wait.
When the baby is You're thinking about keeping it? Well Putting it up for adoption.
Okay, look, um I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Well, Charlie, I'm not asking you to raise it.
But I mean, what if you have it and you change your mind? What if you suddenly decide to keep it and you need something from me.
I mean, money or something.
You're putting me on the hook if you do this.
You are already on the hook.
You had unprotected sex, and you conceived.
And frankly, I don't have a whole lot of patience for men who never think past their next conquest, who think they can have sex like that and just blow off the consequences.
Look, you don't know me, okay? We had sex that way twice.
And I'm not some sort of deadbeat dad here, so I don't need a lecture from you.
I'm not so sure about that.
You show up an hour late, probably on purpose.
And the second you hear your child's mother might not want to have an abortion-- Okay, look.
You know what? I-- I do not want to do this here.
Okay, I'm gonna take these pamphlets you gave me, and I'm gonna think.
Okay? Thanks.
You really helped me a lot.
Good.
Hi, can I maybe get some change for the pay phone please? Thanks.
Hi.
You're the guy from the garage, right? I'm Julia Salinger from last night.
With the Psycho squeak.
Right.
I thought my car might be done, but no, so I have to call somebody to give me a ride home.
I had to get some change for the pay phone, you know.
Thank you.
So have you been working on cars long? Since high school.
Really? Where did you go to high school? Grant.
Same as you.
Wow, really? Were you in some of my classes? 'Cause I don't-- I dropped out.
Oh.
How come? Oh, you know what, never mind.
I shouldn't None of my business.
I'm gonna get going.
Well, do you want a beer or something? Me? Oh, no, thank-- I don't You know what, I came to use the phone.
They wouldn't let you use the phone over at the shop? Uh No, he was on it.
The guy? What guy, Sergio? Yes, right, Sergio.
And what did Sergio say about your car? He didn't exactly, he He He was-- Well, nevermind.
Do you want to get out of here? My place is just right around the corner.
Oh, you know what? Thank you, but I really did come to use the pay phone.
It's over there.
Thanks.
I'm sorry.
-My My fault.
Sorry.
-Don't worry about it.
Come on, man.
I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be Did you hear that? I said, "Hey, man, great sound check," And he said, "Ya think?" I know! I heard, Will! Plus, look at us, huh? We are standing behind the scenes of a cultural event that is touching the multitudes.
Will, relax, man.
It's just a concert.
No, no.
I will not let you minimize this, okay? You are refusing to let yourself love this because you're not sure you'll find the gonads to tell your old man-- No.
That's totally not what I'm doing.
Only 10,000 fans watching.
No pressure.
No sad story Heroes just Like Cassius Clay We're helpin' people Along the way Let's go! And we're bein' cool Because of that With all my fly boys got my back I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be Oh, won't you tell me No sad story No sad story No sad story What are you doin'? Get off the stage? No sad story You guys didn't screw that up so bad.
Really? Man, did you just feel that? Did you see the girl in the front row with the bouncy-- This is it.
This is it! Yes.
This plus the girl in the front row with the-- It's my life.
I don't need to talk to anybody.
I don't care.
Tomorrow, we get on that bus, and we're gone.
Yeah! I don't know What it's like to be I don't know What it's like to be Is that your lunch? Very healthy.
Are you tryin' to sound like Mom or can you just not help it any more? Oh, that's nice.
Thanks.
Is Charlie here? He called.
He can't make it.
Some kind of personal crisis.
Hey, are these the yesses? What is it this time? No, don't tell me.
I'm better off not knowing.
God, I am sounding like Mom.
Hey, wait a second.
The McGraths can't make it? Mom and Dad are gonna be so bummed.
Don't worry.
They've got plenty of other friends going.
Yeah, I know.
I just really want them to be happy.
It's a party with all their favorite people.
What's going to make them unhappy? Nothing.
They just don't need any more bad news, you know? Oh, you mean, besides Claudia? Claudia? What's going on with Claudia? Well, about her dropping out of the tour.
What? She didn't tell you? No.
She's not going back.
She wants to come home for some reason.
Oh, man, that-- They're gonna freak.
Mom's gonna totally-- What? Well, at least we still have you and Justin.
What does that mean? To make 'em happy.
You guys will announce your engagement, and hopefully they'll forget the rest of this stuff.
No.
I am not-- Bailey, my life is not some party favor for Mom and Dad.
I'm not making a life decision so they can have a good anniversary.
The decision's already made.
We're just talking about the announcement.
You don't know that it's decided.
Well, isn't it? Well, I don't know, Bailey.
Well, I thought you and Mom and Dad-- Don't tell me what Mom and Dad want.
It's my life.
-Okay? -Julia-- No.
You and Charlie and Claudia get to do what you want And so can I.
They have a bad party, well, then tough.
Is that what you think, that I get to do what I want? I don't want to hear it, okay? Hi.
Kirsten Bennett.
We met yesterday.
Yeah.
Is she seeing the doctor? Look, I'm sorry.
I mean, getting angry at you.
It was I was way off base.
It's just a lot of cases I see, sometimes I lose objectivity, and I let my own issues get in the way.
Forget it.
That's fine.
I understand.
Well, you really You don't, but Anyway.
Why? Because you-- You think I'm this guy that's scared to death that I may be having a baby? Well, really, that's not me at all.
I mean, she's sitting in there right now, talking to that doctor About whether or not to abort, and you know what no one's saying? No one's saying, "Could he raise the child?" The father.
Which Frankly, is kinda sad.
'Cause that might be nice some day To have kids.
I don't understand.
Why can't you? There's no way.
Wouldn't know how to do it.
Of course you would.
Ask my parents.
They barely trust me to look after their other kids.
Your parents? Who cares what they think? Mine want me to marry the first guy who asks.
Sorry.
First doctor who asks.
Anyway How much do parents really know? They know somethin'.
They know more than me.
Wow! Mom did some redecorating.
Yeah.
It's very Martha.
We should be okay.
She's supposed to take Owen to piano after school, and Dad never leaves the restaurant before 3:00.
We're safe.
I'll just grab these scrapbooks before they find out that-- Well I guess they really needed the space.
Claud, if they knew you were coming home, I'm sure they would have-- No.
I know.
Yeah.
I just-- Well, we should find the scrapbooks.
They're probably here somewhere.
Hey, look, I'm sorry We can't wait for your friend.
He'll catch up with the tour in Sacramento.
Yeah.
I'm sure he will.
So I looked you up in the yearbook last night when I got home.
I remember you now.
Oh, you do, huh? Mmm-hmm.
You were a senior when I was a sophomore, and you were in a band with Brennan Brown and his little brother Kendrick, who was in my class.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
You played guitar.
And at the time, I remember thinking you were kinda cute.
At the time, huh? Yeah, well, you were a senior and in a band and drove a motorcycle, and I never thought that you would ever be interested in someone like me, so Yeah.
You were probably right.
At the time.
Man, I gotta-- I gotta close up if you wanna wait.
I don't wanna wait.
Why did Julia ask me to do this? I have horrible handwriting.
Punishment.
Yeah.
That's sounds right.
So you're gonna go to the party tonight, and then catch up with the tour in Sacramento? I don't know, man.
You know Dad would murder me.
So? So So, what, you're saying I should just be like you? Just go take off and do whatever I want and forget about who gets hurt? No.
Not at all.
No.
What I did was What I did was worse.
I mean, all I did all my life was do the opposite of what Dad wanted.
I mean, I still never made any of my own choices.
And you know what happened? I never got what I wanted, and now Dad and I hardly even talk.
No.
All I'm saying is, you need to figure out what you want, what you really want and do that.
Don't think about anything else.
Just Just figure it out I mean, what do you want? Hey! Hey.
Yeah, listen, I didn't want to interrupt.
I brought you some crullers and some coffee.
I don't know how you take it.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Uh Griffin, you know what? Last night was great, and I think you're an amazing guy-- Yeah.
Look Don't worry about it.
Car's out front.
It's ready to go.
No.
That's not It's just I have a boyfriend.
Uh-huh.
So, what, did you two get in a fight last night or something? No.
It's not that.
It's He's cheating on you, is that it? No.
He would never-- It's I was just-- I was trying to figure stuff out.
You know? Yeah.
Well, maybe you should've been tryin' to figure stuff out with him.
Oh, hi.
Mr.
Salinger, right? Charlie.
Yeah.
Are you here with Felicia? Uh, no.
No, actually.
Was there something that you needed? I just wanted to let you know how things turned out.
She's keeping the baby, you know, for adoption, but we're gonna try to find parents that'll let us keep track of the baby.
So Oh, good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're not gonna get back together, but I'm gonna make sure that she has everything that she needs.
Great.
I mean, we don't-- The clinic has no point of view on you two staying together.
Right.
Was there anything else? No.
No, no.
I just I just wanted to thank you.
So Thanks.
You're welcome.
All right.
Take care.
-Yeah.
Good night.
-Good night.
Let me buy you a drink, huh? One for you One for me.
Cheers.
Little liquid courage.
You gonna tell 'em tonight? Mmm.
I decided not to.
Why? Because of them? Because you're afraid they'll be disappointed? No.
It's just Look at them.
Look at them.
I mean, they've got their own lives now.
You know, they've moved away from home.
They've moved away from each other.
Like most families.
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah.
But in my head, it was Just the way it was when I left, you know? I guess I thought if I came home, I could just Have that back, you know? But that family That family doesn't exist any more.
I know.
I'm sorry, but before your parents get here, I just wanted to ask you something.
