Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990) s06e18 Episode Script

My keys Clare, have you seen my keys? Uh, yeah, they're by the phone.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, God, I am so late.
I'm supposed to meet my dad for breakfast.
When was the last time you saw Kel? I don't remember.
Actually, I don't think I've seen her more than a couple of times in the last two weeks.
Yeah, I know.
I called her at Colin's like five times they're not answering.
I'm worried about her.
Yeah, I know.
It's not like her.
What, you think Colin's still getting high? Yeah, I do.
And I think he's dragging her down with him.
No way.
Not Kel.
She would never touch that stuff.
Are you going to class? Uh-uh, I can't move.
Sure you can.
Mm.
Just don't make me go to school today, okay? Wouldn't think of it.
Slow down, Keats.
What were you restless in the womb? Well, I was born two months premature.
Yeah, well, do we have to get in shape all in one day? Look, if you even want to finish the Rock the Vote 10K, you're gonna have to put in the miles.
Susan, we have two months.
Yeah, and you've only jogged one block.
- Speed it up.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What happened? She lost control of her car and jumped the curb.
I saw the whole thing.
Man, that looks bad.
Are you okay? I-I don't know.
Wait, uh, my shoelace.
Hold on one sec, my shoelace is untied.
Yeah, right.
What's next, a broken fingernail? I'm serious, hold on.
You are a lollygagger.
Now come on, suck it up! No! Susan? Susan? People, can you just go about your own business? We have everything under control.
Just get me out of here, please.
- I don't feel very good.
- Yeah, yeah, sure, sure.
Come on, why don't we sit down right here, huh? What's the matter? My, um older sister was killed in a car accident.
Hit-and-run.
I didn't know you had a sister.
Yeah.
She was only 22.
She, uh she just finished Stanford and was on her way to Harvard Medical School.
What was her name? Kathryn.
You know, I really loved her, but everybody did.
She was the best.
You know, I always thought if I could be half as good as she was or half as smart.
Hey, you're doing pretty well.
I think she'd be very proud.
I hope so, 'cause, you know, everything I'm doing is because of her school, the paper, everything.
Hey, hey, you got new wheels.
Yeah.
My dad got it for me.
Gift for good grades.
- Wow, it's gorgeous.
- Thanks.
Gorgeous? I'd say it's cute.
Very cute.
I prefer sporty, actually.
Okay, cute and sporty.
Kind of like a Barbie-mobile.
Barbie drove a pink Corvette, Steve.
- Oh.
- I always knew that girl had class.
Well, it was a Corvette.
Yeah, well, I bet she never made the Dean's list.
Clare, you made Dean's List again? I did.
Even you couldn't drag me down, Steve.
Well, congratulations.
And drive in good health.
- I'm going back in.
- Thank you.
So you want to take it for a drive? Uh, not really.
I hear these cars are pigs.
You know, all styling, no performance.
Don't diss my car.
It's very peppy.
Yeah, for a chick's car.
But next to my Corvette, it kind of stands still, Clare.
Really? Well, I'll tell you what, Parnelli, I'll race my Barbie-mobile against you any time you'd like, okay? Please, don't make me laugh, Clare.
Is there a problem, Officer? License and registration, please.
You, too.
I know how this looks, but this is a real emergency.
I'm an organ donor recipient.
- My beeper just went off.
- Steve I'm late for dialysis, okay? Not okay.
I'm citing you for speeding.
Um, Officer, sorry to bother you, I know you're busy, but when you pulled us over, which one of us was ahead? Uh you were, Miss.
Thanks.
- You know what I was thinking? - Hmm? We should go shopping today.
For what? For presents.
For you, for me, for me, for you.
Well, my dad did say that I should buy myself something nice.
We could spend it all in one place.
- All in one day.
- All right, a goal.
You want to really have fun? Let's get a limo to take us around all day.
Mmm.
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, because neither one of us are exactly designated driver material today, are we? And we can make love in between purchases.
Hmm, what do you like better making love or shopping? It's a toss-up.
I'll get back to you.
I'll get that.
- You want to clean this up? - Oh, yeah.
- Valerie? - Hey.
- What are you doing here? - May I come in? Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Um, I've got some great news.
Hey, Kel.
Long time no school.
It's nice to know I've been missed.
I think you'll want to take a look at this.
It's from Sterling Penn, he's a collector.
He lives in Hawaii.
He's got one of the most famous contemporary art collections in the world.
Yeah, I know who he is.
He read about my mural in the L.
A.
Times, Kelly.
He wants to see more.
- He's flying in next week.
- That's great.
Yeah, that's, that's really great.
Having fun? Colin, what is this? Oh, must be left over from the holidays.
Yeah, must be.
Well, have a nice day.
Yeah, you, too.
Bye-bye.
Thanks for coming.
Think she bought it? Ask me if I care.
Do you care? No.
I just don't understand how you and Joe's other doctor can see things so differently? Honey, it's very subjective.
Medicine is like detective work.
You look for clues, then you try to find the culprit.
It's not an exact science.
And I have to admit what I saw when I looked at Joe's EKG was very subtle.
Sam Levin saw something else.
- Refill, Dr.
Martin? - No, thanks, Nat.
The check, please.
Well, in the meantime, what's the patient supposed to do? Normally, go for a third opinion or err on the side of caution.
Joe's not doing that.
I know, but give him time.
It is not easy to be in Joe's shoes right now.
I know, that Daddy.
But I'm worried about him.
I'm scared.
I understand.
Look, I've got to get over to the hospital right now.
But I want you to call me, all right? I really want to talk about this tonight.
Okay.
Good.
- Hey, Brandon.
- Hey, Dr.
Martin, how are you? - Good.
How's it going? - Good.
Good.
Good, - Hey, Donna.
How are you? - I'm all right.
Uh, get me some orange juice.
I'll be right back.
Yeah.
Donna? Yeah.
You all right? Yeah, I'm fine.
What's going on? Look, I'm, I'm just worried about Joe, Brandon.
My dad thinks there's something wrong with his heart.
What do you mean there's something wrong with his heart.
I don't know.
And the trouble is, Joe got a second opinion from a heart doctor the team sent him to.
The guy says he's fine.
Well, that's a good thing, right? Yeah, if the guy's right.
Look, I gotta go.
Yeah, listen, uh, if there's anything I can do, I'll be around.
Thank you.
Now, Silver, I know you know a certain ticket-fixer by the name of Eddie.
All I want is an introduction.
That's all, okay? I can't afford my insurance rates going up.
Steve, I told you.
I'd give you Eddie's number, but he just got busted.
I'm sorry.
Great.
Why don't you just go to traffic school? It's no big deal.
No luck.
Silver's guy is out of business.
Okay.
So what's it going to be? We have traffic school for Armenians, pizza lovers, chocoholics.
Oh, here's a good one.
Gourmet traffic school.
Ooh! We could watch gory movies of traffic accidents while we sauté porcini mushrooms.
How appetizing.
Works for me.
What do you think? I think we wouldn't be in this mess if it hadn't been for you.
Oh, don't blame me.
You just couldn't bear the thought that I might have beaten you.
You didn't.
Well, that's not what the cop said.
He said I was winning.
Remember? Wait.
You asked the cop? You two are in a class by yourselves.
Enjoy traffic school.
Now, this is the way to shop.
You are a showoff.
Oh, come on.
Don't you love it? I mean, growing up in Rochester, practically the only time you'd see a limousine was when somebody died.
You're kidding me, aren't you? No.
Not really.
I mean, the first time I was ever in a limo was my my high school prom.
My date practically threw up out the moon roof.
That's very memorable.
Yeah.
That was the good part.
In the morning, when I crawled home, there was this van outside my house from the VA hospital.
That's when I realized it was him.
Who? My father.
My real father.
You never told me about him.
Yeah.
It's not a great conversation starter.
Well, what's he like? He's blind.
He lost his sight in Vietnam.
Funny thing is, he's a better artist than I'll ever be.
How's that for poetic injustice? Why didn't you ever tell me about him? I don't know.
Never came up.
Who knows? You might meet him someday.
Hopefully, not.
He's a pretty scary guy.
So, how about you? When was your first time in a limo? Oh, well, I was practically born in one.
I was brought home from the hospital in one.
I went to my first day of school in one.
Whenever my dad was in L.
A.
, he had a stretch and a driver on payroll.
But there's one thing I've never done in a limo.
No way.
You're lying.
- No, I'm not.
- You are lying.
Uh-uh.
Well, there's a first time for everything? Oh So what traffic school did you guys finally decide on? - Comedy.
- Gourmet.
Comedy-gourmet traffic school.
Very interesting.
- Knock-knock! - Hi, guys.
- Hi.
- Don't get up.
- What's this? - Open it and find out.
- We had the most incredible day.
- Here you go.
- Thanks.
- Incredible it was.
- For you.
- Oh, thank you.
My dad gave me a little belated Christmas cash and told me to spend it any way I wanted, and I couldn't think of any better way to spend it than on all of you, 'cause we just love you.
That we do, but you know what? We're out of here.
Yeah.
Colin's taking me to Eclipse.
Ooh! Tres chic.
Yeah.
Give those to the others, would ya? Okay.
See you.
Bye.
Love you.
Bye! Bye! Well, that was strange.
Well, rumor has it the Three Wise Men didn't show up in Bethlehem till January.
Oh, man! Internet In a Box! I've been saving up for this.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Check it out.
How classy.
For the driving enthusiast.
Likewise.
Even matches my car.
What did you get, Val? "Mirror, mirror, on the wall.
" Aren't any of you the least bit disturbed by any of this? I mean, didn't you get a good look at them? Kelly and Colin? No.
The ghosts from Christmas Past.
Yes, Colin and Kelly.
I mean, you don't think this is manic behavior? You heard what she said.
Her father gave her some extra cash to blow.
She's having a good time.
What's the big deal? I don't know about you people, but I feel loved.
Well, they were blowing much more than cash.
What? You think Colin was high again? They both were.
Kelly high? - I don't think so.
- No way.
She's been all over Colin from the beginning about this.
That is kind of a far stretch.
I don't think she'd be using after what she went through with her mother.
Yeah.
And that whole intervention thing with Dylan.
Oh, guys, please.
Come on! I mean, all I keep hearing about is Dylan and Kelly's mother and David.
I mean, when does anybody learn anything from the lessons of the past? I mean, trust me.
These are guilt gifts.
Kelly's getting high.
Hi.
Don't you love this place? I brought my parents here last week.
For madame, the risotto with black truffles.
Thank you.
And, monsieur, our roasted rack of lamb with Tuscan beans.
Thanks.
I only order this 'cause I like the little booties.
Will there be anything else? No, no.
We're fine.
Thanks.
I don't even know how you can eat meat.
Easy.
With a knife and fork.
Baah! Baah! Baah! Baah! Stop it.
Go ahead.
Try your risotto.
I'm not really that hungry.
Yeah.
Me neither.
Okay.
My turn.
Where's our little power pack? It's gone.
I did it.
Gone? Come on.
You got to be kidding me.
- No.
- Kelly, there was enough left for both of us.
Look, you've been going through it twice as fast as I have.
You're crazy.
Why are you making such a big deal out of it? Why don't we just go get some more? We can't.
Not from Paul.
He's he's all tapped out.
Come on.
Let's split.
I don't want to sit here jonesing all night.
I'm certainly not going to eat.
It's not locked.
Hey, Brandon.
Hey, Joe.
You're on campus late.
Well, the news never sleeps.
Besides, I was kind of hoping I'd find you here.
Oh, yeah? What's going on? Well, we got this press release at the paper today.
I just kind of wanted to follow up with you on it.
What press release is that? You're quoted.
You should know.
Right.
The ankle thing.
Well, good news.
I'm fine.
Great.
Everything else okay? Knee? Back? Neck? Thyroid gland? What is this? A fishing expedition? Actually, let me take myself off the record here, Joe.
Donna told me that you went to see her father, and you may have some kind of heart condition.
She had no business telling you that.
She only said anything because she cares.
Come on, Brandon, you know how doctors work.
One tells you one thing, one tells you another.
I'm fine.
You sure? Let me tell you something.
When I was 16, I had a really bad accident.
I was rock climbing.
Fell off a cliff nearly 100 feet.
Check out these scars.
Doctor said I'd never walk again.
But I did, and here I am, California University's starting quarterback, and I'm taking the Condors to the Rose Bowl next year.
Every day of my life, I have dreamed of playing in the pros.
And if I had listened to those doctors, I'd still be stuck in that wheelchair.
Yeah.
I understand.
I wish you could get Donna to understand.
I'll see what I can do.
Oh, hey, Brandon.
Is this going to be in the newspaper tomorrow? No.
Like I said, this was off the record.
Thanks, man.
You got it.
I hear there's stuff coming through here.
Can you help me out? What kind of stuff? Like a blizzard.
Follow me.
You a cop? No, man.
That's funny.
I think I smell ham.
You're smelling 60 bucks if you get me what I need.
You stay right here.
Don't move.
I mean, don't move until I come back.
I'm not going anywhere.
- Spare any change? - I got nothing.
I got what you wanted.
Oh, man, took you long enough.
Thanks.
Watch your back.
This is a lousy neighborhood.
Did you get it? - Yeah, I got it.
- Give me some.
No, let's wait till we get home, all right? This whole scene gives me the creeps.
- Come on.
- Have some scotch.
- I don't want scotch.
- Just have a drink.
It'll make you feel better, take the edge off.
No.
Driver, back to Venice, Main Street.
Let's just get out of here.
What? Nothing.
I'm just really not in the mood, that's all.
Okay.
Is something wrong? Would it fall on deaf ears if it were? Uh, no.
Could've fooled me.
All right, I'm lost.
No, David, you're blind.
And I can't figure out why.
You've been down this road before.
You know the signs of drug use better than anyone.
Think about it.
When was the last time you saw Kelly before she waltzed in here acting like Santa Claus? - Not for a while.
- And when was the last time you saw Kelly come in here and shower me with gifts of love and affection? Face it, David, she was high.
So what should I do? I don't know.
But you're her brother.
You better do something.
Something's wrong, Colin this stuff tastes weird.
I'm not getting a buzz at all.
We got ripped off, Kelly.
I don't know what this is, but it sure the hell isn't cocaine.
Wh-What were you thinking? Didn't you taste it before you got it? Yeah, sure, right in the middle of a dark alley I'm gonna test the merchandise.
He could've had a gun, Kelly.
Congratulations, you just blew 60 bucks.
This stuff sucks.
Yeah, well, if you hadn't hoovered up the last of the stash, we'd be fine now, wouldn't we? Who are you calling? Paul.
It's Colin.
S.
O.
S.
, man.
I thought you said he didn't have any.
Just give us a pinch of yours until I'll pay double.
I said I'll pay double.
Outstanding.
I'll be right over.
Bye.
Go.
Hurry up.
Get get in a good stretch, because today we're up for a serious run.
Oh, of course we are.
We're serious people here.
So, you know that press release we got on Joe - from the athletic department? - Yeah.
Yeah, it's a snow job.
You mean there is something wrong with his ankle? No, not his ankle, his heart.
His heart? Yeah.
I talked to Donna off the record.
She said Joe may have some sort of congenital heart defect.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
But there are differing opinions.
Two doctors, two diagnoses.
Turns out one of the doctors is Donna's father.
And doc number two? Recommended by the athletic department.
Oh, man.
So, what's Joe going to do? He's listening to the guy that says he's fine so he can keep playing football.
How convenient for the athletic department.
So, when are you gonna interview Joe? I'm not.
We aren't covering this story.
Are you crazy? The athletic department is putting up a smoke screen around its star quarterback, and you're gonna do nothing? I told you, it was off the record.
Well, then go on the record.
Look.
Joe's my friend.
If we even hint that there may be something wrong with him, we could jeopardize his entire career.
No, Brandon.
Joe is doing that all by himself.
This sucks.
Yeah, it's penance for our sins it's supposed to suck.
Welcome jawbreakers.
Of course, I mean lawbreakers.
In case you're lost, this is the Last Laugh Traffic School.
My name is Lou Nebitts, but before you go calling me "Mrs.
Nebbish," let me remind you that I have control over your driving records.
So feel free to laugh whenever I say something funny.
That wasn't funny.
You're telling me.
Any comedian with talent is not gonna be headlining traffic school.
All right, then, who can tell me what is the cause of most moving violations? Speeding? - No.
- Illegal turns? - No, sir.
- Internal combustion.
Have you ever taken this class before? No.
Obviously not.
Because you don't know the first rule of Lou Nebitts' traffic school "Never be funnier than the teacher.
" But seriously, folks, the major cause of most moving violations is poor time management.
So, what'd they nab you for, Shecky? Oh, this is all her fault.
Yeah, you wish.
You know, I should've trusted my instincts and gone - to gourmet traffic school.
- Then why don't you just change your major to home ec? This seems like there's a little unresolved anger maybe you two should have gone to conflict-avoidance traffic school.
Then we never would have met you, Lou.
I don't know him, he's just Aren't they cute? The fighting Wallendas.
Tell me, do you fight in bed? - No.
- Yep.
It's none of your business.
And what are you laughing at? - Tough workout? - Mm-hmm.
Kelly dropped that off for you.
What is it? I don't know.
I'm waiting to find out open it.
- What's the occasion? - No occasion.
She and Colin came by giving gifts to all her friends me included.
It's a Mont Blanc pen.
A sterling silver Mont Blanc pen.
Do you know what that's worth? That's, like, over $600.
No way.
They must've been flying.
Either that or Kelly's gone completely crazy.
Wait a second, are you saying that Kelly was high? I don't think it, I know it.
I can't believe that.
You know what, you're like everybody else.
You can't believe that little Miss Perfect can do anything wrong.
The light is driving me crazy I can't get to sleep.
It's not the light that's keeping you up, believe me.
I feel like I haven't slept in days.
You haven't.
I can't keep doing this.
Aren't you gonna get that? No.
I don't want to talk to anybody.
All right, you called.
What's up? Hey, Colin.
Uh, it's me, Brandon.
Actually, I'm calling for Kelly.
Well, I guess I-I'm calling for both of you guys.
Thanks for the awesome pen, although I have no idea what I did to deserve it.
Just wanted to make sure you guys are all right.
People are starting to wonder.
Give me a call, Kel.
Bye.
Are we all right? - Never better.
- Wish I could say the same.
I got to get out of here I need some sleep.
You'll be fine once you crash.
Here, take some downers.
Makes for softer landing.
Lay down, and try to close your eyes, okay? No, I can't.
I want my own bed.
I'm gonna go home, okay? There's a war going on on the highways of our country, and innocents are being slaughtered by the drunken, the drugged, and those who just don't think.
What right do they have to endanger my life, to threaten my wife and my children? I mean, what right Great flick you took me to.
Enough already.
I'm sick of being blamed for something that you started.
- Shh.
- Shh! You're a big boy you could've just said no.
That's easy for you to say.
We hope you enjoyed our feature presentation of Red Asphalt III.
Siskel and Ebert gave this classic "two thumbs off.
" Good.
You're finally getting the picture.
Speeding is no laughing matter.
Now, why don't we take that bathroom break.
Some of you look like you could use it.
Yeah, it's Max.
How's it going? What? They didn't show up? But we tape in two hours! Um, yeah, look, um, don't worry, I'll figure something out, okay? Crisis on the set.
Hey, listen, uh, my name's Max Roman.
I'm here because I pulled a 180 on PCH, but I also happen to be a producer of Back Talk.
- Now, you ever watch it? - Yeah, channel nine, right? - Wrong.
Channel 11.
- Right, right.
You know, you two you two are dynamite.
No, no, look, I want you to come with me when we get sprung out of here, and I want you to tape a segment.
It's called "Tangled Up in Love.
" It's about couples who keep fighting all the time, and we'll do that whole love-hate thing, huh? Well, there's no love-hate here.
- Speak for yourself, honey.
- Ow! Now, it's not great money, but it is only gonna take a couple of hours.
So, what do you say, huh? Come on from one high-risk driver to another? - Sure.
- Forget it.
You're gonna be perfect.
Listen, um, I heard from the athletic department about Joe's heart.
You did? Yeah.
Um I really feel bad for him, Donna, and you, too.
Yeah, well, the worst part is, Joe's pushing himself even harder now.
You know your father is a great doctor.
- Yeah.
- Um, what exactly was his diagnosis anyway? I mean, I know it was some type of, um, congenital heart defect.
Well, I-I thought you talked to the athletic department they didn't tell you? Um, you know, actually, I got to go.
Um, maybe we can have coffee some other time.
Good luck.
Wait, Susan.
You're not gonna write a story about this, are you? I don't know.
Hey, Joe.
Hey, Susan.
Hi.
Hey.
What were you talking to Susan about? Uh, nothing.
Just like you were talking to Brandon about nothing? These people run the school newspaper, Donna.
These people are my friends, Joe.
Oh, yeah, until they think they've got a story.
Then they're nobody's friends.
That is not true.
You know what? I kind of hope they do write a story about you.
Because then maybe you'll pay attention to common sense.
If The Condor even suggests that there's something wrong with me, I'm damaged goods.
That ends all hopes I have for a pro career.
What kind of career are you gonna have if you're dead? Whose side are you on? Yours if you'd just open your eyes wide enough to see it.
David.
Hey.
What's going on? Nothing.
I'm just looking for Kelly.
Is she here? No, man, she got bored watching me work.
She took off a while ago.
Is something wrong? I don't know.
I haven't seen her in a while.
She's been hanging out here.
Actually, she hasn't been feeling that great.
I've been taking good care of her, though.
That's good.
Because I really care about her, you know? Yeah, so do I.
I'd do anything for Kelly, you know that.
Even share your drugs with her? Is that the line Valerie's been feeding you? She's expressed her concern.
I bet she has, and I bet you jumped all over it, too, didn't you? You and your girlfriend are way off-base.
Just stop, all right? I know when someone's using.
I can tell by looking.
Kelly's clean.
So am I.
Don't make me laugh.
You know what? I don't need you or any other 12-step convert coming into my house, telling me my business.
I don't care what you do, but if you don't stop giving your drugs to my sister, the only thing you're gonna find up your nose is my fist.
You finished? Yeah, Beverly Hills, please.
The number for a Dr.
John Martin.
What do you think you're doing? I'm just checking the facts.
Don't look at me like that.
You're building a story, one that I told you was officially off the record.
For you, maybe.
Look, I talked to Donna.
I talked to Kip Hardwick in the Athletic Department.
I talked to Dr.
Levin, the one who gave Joe that clean bill of health.
I've done it all on my own without involving or compromising you.
You're unbelievable.
Look, I don't even have to use Joe's name.
I can slant the whole story around the manipulation of the Athletic Department.
The religion of football, winning at any cost.
And what about getting a story at any cost? You're as bad as they are.
Joe is putting himself at risk by ignoring the advice of Dr.
Martin, a widely respected cardiologist, I might add.
That's Joe's decision to make, not yours.
Look, I know Joe is your friend, Brandon, but how much are you willing to risk for friendship? You mean to tell me if you found out Joe was point-shaving you wouldn't run a story on that? Now, you're comparing horseshoes and hand grenades.
Am I? Drop the story.
There you are.
Hey.
What's up? What the hell you trying to pull? Excuse me? Siccing your boyfriend on me? Real smooth, Val what other tricks can you make him do for you? Wait, I don't know what you're talking about.
Like hell you don't.
You sent David over to threaten me? Hey, I didn't send David anywhere.
He figured out what was going on with you and Kelly all by himself.
We all did.
Yeah, well, you're all out of line.
You and everyone else, leave Kelly and me alone, all right? Stay out of our lives! Colin.
Listen to me.
They wouldn't be in your life without Kelly, okay? They care about her, not you.
I'm the only one who does.
Just keep them off my back.
What the hell are we doing here? Why don't you tell me, Clare? I don't see the point, all right? This is the point.
I argue.
You bitch.
We fight.
Now we get to do it on national television.

So, Steve, who's guilty of all the bickering? Let me explain.
No, I'm not gonna let you.
No, not if it involves any more blame.
- Forget it.
- Blame? What's he blame you for, Clare? What does he bl? Okay, well, um street racing, getting busted, winding up in traffic school Okay, okay! I'm not blaming you anymore.
Thank you, okay? I want to thank you.
What? I'm a little lost here, Steve.
Me, too.
Well, don't you see? Don't you see where all this fighting and bickering and arguing has gotten us? On some dinky local talk show? No.
Behind the wheels of two speeding cars.
I'm glad we got caught.
Thank God we got caught, because I could've gotten you hurt or worse.
Well, it's not all your fault.
If anything ever happened to you or that cute little brain of yours, I don't think I could ever forgive myself.
Aw What? What do you mean, my cute little brain? It was an endearment term.
Oh, it didn't sound very endearing to me.
You know, you calling me cute, that's kind of what got us in this whole mess in the first place.
You remember? Would you prefer "sporty"? You got a cute, - sporty little brain? - You're impossible.
- I'm impossible? - Yeah, you're impos - Don't point at me! - The only point's on top of your head, but you tease your hair, - so it doesn't show.
- Don't point at me! I won't point at you, okay? I won't even talk to you? Kel.
God, am I glad to see you.
Hey.
You don't look so good.
Are you okay? Oh, yeah, yeah.
I'm just tired.
Oh, yeah.
I'm beat, too.
Joe and I have been on such an emotional roller-coaster the past few days, you wouldn't even believe it, Kel Kel? Hmm? Nothing.
I just, I thought we could talk.
Can't it wait? I came home to get some sleep.
Oh.
Yeah, I just, I haven't see you in so long, and I kind of needed your advice.
I can't do it right now.
I'm too tired.
He looks healthy enough.
What are you doing here? I, uh just thought I'd come by and tell you that I wrote the story.
"Medical Condition of Condor Q.
B.
Questionable.
Possible Athletic Department Cover-Up.
" I can't believe you're gonna run this.
I'm not.
That was some of the best stuff I ever wrote.
Then why'd you tear it up? I guess I started thinking about my sister.
And what she meant to me.
And? And I don't want to hurt Joe.
There's always another story.
Well, I appreciate that.
I'm sure Joe will, too.
What if he wasn't a friend? Would you run the story then? Yeah, I would.
I hope we're doing the right thing, Brandon.
What if there's something wrong with him? Don't even think it.
Buy you a martini? Sure.
I could use one.
Hey, you.
Hi.
Listen, I just came by to apologize.
I mean, it's your life, your body, your decision.
I love you, Donna.
And I'm gonna be fine.
Everything's gonna be okay.
I know.
Listen, why don't I finish up here and then I'll take you out for dinner? Okay, but only if you take a shower first.
- Deal.
- I'll pick you up at 7:00.
I'll be ready.
Whoa.
