[slow rock music]
(Irv) For many years now
this sliver of dust-covered rock has served as a haven
for the hope-filled
hormone-driven youth of our town.
You won't find it on any map
but everyone knows exactly where it is.
We call it The Point.
[music continues]
Give me a second. Oh, God. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- It's okay. - My elbow's a little pointy.
Yeah, only when it's hitting my jaw.
- That better? - Yeah.
- I was feeling woolly in that. - Okay.
[music continues]
- Hold up. Sorry. Hold on. - What? What happened?
No, nothing. It's just, that was new.
Oh, I'm sorry. Did I- - ? Did I freak you out?
No, no, don't apologize.
I just need to regroup here for a second.
I'm just not really used to that.
- Basically. - Okay.
- Oh, you mean you never? - No, no. Did you think I had?
Well, yeah, I mean, you know..
You always seem, so comfortable and together
with yourself, and I just--
- I assumed you and Colin had-- - No, we never had.
But that's very nice.
That's a big compliment, seeing as that's not how I feel.
Could've fooled me.
Hey, listen, I hope you know that, you know
I would never have done that if I knew.
I know.
- I'll not be like this forever. - That's fine. That's fine.
I mean, when you're ready, I'm ready. And you know what?
If you're never ready, you know, that's cool with me.
I don't care. That's not why I'm into you.
It's my winning personality, isn't it?
You know, that and the free Skittles.
On this uncharted piece of rock
many of Everwood's young people first discovered
their capacity for passion
and sometimes for love.
For them, the view from The Point will be
forever etched in their hearts and minds
A reminder of one special moment when everything changed.
[theme music]
[music continues]
[slow instrumental music]
- Is it a person? - Nope.
It has to be. There's nothing left.
- Is it a plant? - A plant is a thing.
No. Plants are alive, and things are inanimate objects.
- Well, then is it a plant? - No.
Well, we're here. To be continued, kiddo.
I'm just gonna walk Linda to her front door.
- Good night, Delia. - Night.
Oh, wait, wait.
Are cartoon characters, inanimated objects?
You're getting warmer.
And so begins the great thaw of 2004.
I think she's actually starting not to hate me.
Are you kidding? She gave you some of her curly fries.
She's crazy about you.
Which is why..
Which is why what?
Which is why I don't think she would mind.
Or anyone would mind for that matter.
I know that I certainly wouldn't mind.
You're doing that thing where you don't finish your thoughts.
I want you to sleep over at my house this Saturday night.
- Wow, that's a big step. - I know.
That's what I liked about it.
- Well, what do the kids think? - I'm sure they'll be fine.
Why don't you get back after you've had that conversation?
I have this picture in my head that just won't go away.
I see you and I.
We're sitting at the breakfast table in our pj's
sipping coffee, reading the Sunday paper.
Nice picture.
Then let's give it a try.
- I'm tired of waiting. - 'Is it Nemo?'
[slow instrumental music]
It defeats the purpose if you highlight the whole book.
[clears throat]
Did your underage boyfriend finish my fudgsicles?
I took one.
Does he not understand the concept of labels?
The Post-it clearly said "Carrie" right on the box.
Why don't you ask him directly, as he's sitting next to me?
He touches another one of my fudgy pops
I'm calling Child Services.
I was once mad at you for not introducing me to her.
Oh, she's not my friend, she's my roommate.
Are you stuck with her, or can you switch roommates?
Well, she's going to Boise this weekend to visit her boyfriend.
Which means he's either fictional or crazy.
But who cares? I'm just happy we have the place to ourselves.
- We? - Yeah, if you wanna come.
It would be nice to hang out without somebody walking in.
- Yeah. Yeah. - She leaves after 5.
- You can come by after. - Okay.
Hopefully I'll be done with my paper by then.
'I didn't really know what to think.'
- Did you want to? - I didn't not want to.
It's just, I didn't see it as a possibility.
In my mind it was never really on the menu.
And now it is?
Yeah, big-time.
Then, go for it. He's great, and you like him.
Yeah. I like him a lot.
- He knows what he's doing. - Laynie.
So out of curiosity, what is it exactly I'm supposed to do?
You don't have to worry about that part.
You can just sort of lie there at first.
Gee, it sounds so romantic when you put it that way.
It's not gonna be romantic.
It might be, and it could be.
But if you build it up in your mind as this thing
that's gonna change your life
you're gonna be disappointed, trust me.
The lower your expectations are, the better.
Maybe I'm not ready to do this after all.
Fine. Don't wait too long and end up like Rachel's sister.
What happened to her?
29 years old. Never did it.
She's petrified that she's gonna die a ***.
It's really sad.
- God. - Hello, girls.
- How's the studying going? - Oh, it's going great, Grandma.
- That's awesome. - I don't know.
She said, "My roommate's going to Boise for the weekend."
That's awesome.
Your girlfriend meant you have her place to yourself.
The whole place, whole weekend.
That's a major invitation to the big leagues.
- We haven't talked about sex. - Dude, come on.
I mean, don't you get it? She is signaling the pitch.
Don't use sports metaphors now. I need to understand.
Women do not speak English. They speak in code.
You've to translate everything.
Madison's not just gonna say
"Why don't you come over Friday and do me?"
- For many reasons. - So, she's gonna speak in code.
When a girl says, "Do you like my sweater?"
What she really means is, "Tell me how good I look."
When she says you get to spend "uninterrupted" time together
what she means is you wanna stop by the drugstore on the way.
She said, I should come as her roommate leaves.
Does lassie need to hit you over the head with a heavy object?
She's aching for some Brown loving.
- Serve it hot, my friend. - What should I do to prepare?
I don't know. Is there some special ritual Jewish kids do?
Or you just thank God and pray you don't screw up, like us?
Amy.
Sorry, but your grandmother's already gone for the day.
- Yeah, I know. - You okay?
[sighs]
Um, do you have a minute?
(Amy) So I know this is weird.
If there was anybody else that I could talk to, I would.
But seeing as there isn't
I was hoping that maybe we could just pretend..
...that we were fine.
I can do that.
I need to go on the pill.
- Birth control? - Yeah.
So, what do I need to do? Blood tests or--
Slow down for a second and let me catch up here, okay?
Are you?
Are you currently involved in a *** relationship?
Um, what do you mean exactly?
I mean, yeah, I'm in a relationship.
But, I mean, we haven't had--
It hasn't happened yet.
Okay, well, good. This is good.
- This is a precautionary step? - Yeah.
And you're thinking about having sex.
Well, obviously, or I wouldn't be here right now.
If this is too weird because of the family connections--
Doctors don't get weird.
Laynie told me about Planned Parenthood.
- Do I have to go? - You don't have to.
I'm happy to help, I just.
I wanted to make sure that you've thought about this.
Well..
I looked up all the possibilities on the net.
Norplant and all of that.
The pill just seemed like the right choice.
I'm talking about the decision to have sex.
Have you talked to anybody about it? Anyone other than Laynie?
Well, who would I talk to?
I know you're having some problems with your family
but I'm sure your father would help you.
Even if I wasn't in a massive fight with my dad
I still wouldn't talk to him about it, or my mom.
I think these things are private.
Well, what about your grandmother?
There's a lot of compassion underneath all that khaki.
I came here when I knew she wouldn't be here.
Does that answer your question?
Look, I'm 16, I'm thinking about having sex.
I wanna be safe if I decide to do it.
- Is that so wrong? - No.
No, it's not.
The pill doesn't protect you against any STDs?
I know. I have condoms.
Look, Amy, I'm sure I'm the last person on Earth
you want advice from right now, but I'm gonna give you a little.
Don't be afraid to make sure that everything is right.
You're never gonna get this moment back.
Well, I appreciate what you're saying, Dr. Brown
but I had the right person in my life.
Unfortunately, we ran out of time.
'I'm just being realistic.'
[slow instrumental music]
So will you write the prescription?
I'll have to take a medical history.
'Get blood and urine samples.'
If it all checks out, yes, I'll write the prescription.
Thank you.
[slow instrumental music]
- Hi. Bye. - Wait a second.
I need to talk to you and your sister. Delia!
Bright's having this all-night poker game with some guys.
- I'm gonna spend the night. - Sure. Great.
- What happened? - Just a family meeting.
- What did you do? - 'Nothing. Sit down.'
There's something I wanna discuss with the two of you.
Are we supposed to guess?
Okay.
Linda Abbott and I have been seeing each other regularly.
Not on any formal basis
but with a general and healthy evolution toward a relationship
which is a loaded term in and of itself.
Dad, you're not addressing the Senate.
Right.
Well, the point is, we've been dating for a while
and we really like each other and I thought it would be nice
if after she came over for dinner on Saturday night
that she could..
Well..
Stay.
- Forever? - 'No, no, no.'
Just for the night. You know, like a sleepover.
'Just a sleepover.'
I wanna make sure that you two are okay with that.
Not that there's any reason not to be okay with it, I mean.
I mean, it's no big deal.
The whole point is for it not to be a big deal.
I want Linda to be comfortable coming here from time to time.
And you two having her here.
Yeah, no, I mean, sure. That's fine with me.
Anyway, I gotta go. I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
- Poker game. Work with me, Dad. - Oh, right. Have fun.
So how about you?
What would happen when she's here?
Would I have to do anything?
No, not if you didn't want to.
If would be just like any other night
except we'd be baking those cookies
'that you've been wanting to make so much.'
- And? - Watching The Princess Diaries.
I'm still listening.
And cutting up Double Stuffed Oreos
to make Quadruple Stuffed Oreos?
I guess it'd be okay with me.
[chuckles]
[telephone rings]
Dr. Brown's office. Lab results?
Okay, just a sec, let me get the file. What's the name on it?
What do you mean, you didn't get a name?
Alright.
Give me the number he gave you and I'll find the file myself.
Okay, and the panel?
Okay, got it. Thanks.
What the hell?
[slow instrumental music]
What are you doing Saturday night?
I think I'm going out for dinner with Orlando Bloom.
Oh, no, wait, that's Friday.
I'm just kidding. Why, what's up?
Chris is having this cool party at his parents' ski chalet.
And I don't know, it's gonna be huge.
- 'Thought it might be fun.' - No, that sounds great.
- It sounds kind of perfect. - Perfect how?
It's a beautiful ski chalet, all snowy and fancy.
Sounds like it could be kind of romantic, doesn't it?
Yeah, yeah, I guess. Yeah.
I was thinking that it might be the perfect place to, you know.
Seriously?
Why not? It's better than doing it at The Point.
Yeah.
Yeah, it is. I just-- I mean, when did this happen?
I've been thinking about it. I think I'm ready for it.
Stop looking so shocked because it's freaking me out.
I'm sorry, I just-- I'm a little--
I'm a little taken aback here.
- The other night you-- - You took me by surprise.
But after careful consideration and visiting a doctor I--
You went to a doctor?
Yeah, if we're gonna do this thing, I wanna be prepared.
I thought you'd be happy.
I am. I'm totally happy. I just..
I don't want you to be forced into this unless you want to.
- You know what I mean? - I do want to.
Would it make you feel horrible if I told you
that part of me kind of wants to get it over with?
I mean, it wouldn't make me feel great, you know?
You see..
None of this is really happening the way I thought it would.
For as long as I can remember, I thought it would be Colin.
- Sorry if I hurt your feelings. - No.
I'm sorry. I totally missed it before.
And you know what? You're awesome.
You don't need to do this if you don't want to.
What time should I pick you up Saturday?
This better be some kind of bad joke.
- Where did you find this? - On your desk.
The lab called with her blood work.
You out of your mind?
What were you thinking putting my granddaughter on pills?
- She's 16, for crying out loud. - I know how old she is.
Is she having sex?
You must've asked her as part of the physical.
- Did you schedule something? - That's confidential.
I am her grandmother and her guardian.
Maybe. But in this office, you are her nurse.
- That's all. - Like hell.
Sorry, Edna, but there's nothing more that I can tell you.
If Amy chooses to discuss the matter with you--
She's not gonna discuss it with me.
I don't even wanna ' know about it now.
- When I tell Junior-- - Then, you're fired.
You can't expect me to keep this from him.
I know this is difficult. As a father, I feel for him.
But we have obligations in this office.
- Did you know she was on-- - 'Yes.'
There are no known connections between Zoloft and OCPs.
That's not the point.
The fact that she's even on drugs
proves she's not equipped to make this decision right now.
The girl isn't entirely stable.
Well, she had the good sense to come in and ask for help.
The fact is, if I didn't write that prescription
someone else would have.
Oh, don't give me crap and call it ice cream.
How would you feel if Ephram was running around
buying condoms behind your back and not telling you about it?
Well, fortunately, Ephram's not having sex yet.
- I'm sure when-- - How do you know he's not?
Because I just do.
Good luck with that.
Hi. I couldn't decide pizza or Chinese, so I called both.
But 5 bucks says the kung pao gets here first.
Although the pizza guy has a pretty souped-up Camaro.
You look nice.
So do you.
So the good news is that I blew my music theory paper
and the better news is I now have a makeup essay to write.
Well, I think I might know what will make you feel better.
- Hang on a sec. - Was that bad?
I'm just sitting on a book.
- What's with the mashing? - I'm just nervous.
- I don't wanna mess this up. - Mess what up?
Well, you know.
I've never been here before. You have.
I'm here now, which I'm very grateful for.
But I just don't know exactly what I'm doing.
Neither do I.
Oh, my God.
Did you think we're having sex tonight?
No. No, I didn't. No, of course not.
You said to come over because your roommate was going out.
- We all know what that means. - I don't.
I don't know where you get information.
When I say my roommate's going out, I mean the same. Period.
New information. Glad to have it.
Deciding to have sex is a big deal.
- Well, even for you? - Of course for me.
What do you think I am?
I thought it was only a big deal for first-timers.
After that it's an extension of your average make-out session.
You're officially not allowed to hang out with Bright anymore.
We work because you don't think like a "guy" guy.
- Now I'm not even a guy? Sweet. - No. You're better, okay?
It's a good thing. Trust me.
- You're trying again. - No. You said we should talk.
- We were talking. - Come on, it's time to go.
- What? - You're leaving.
- Are you kidding me? - 'No, I'm not.'
- Can I please just-- - No, you can't.
Okay, but I can spend the night. I already asked my dad.
You're done.
[slow instrumental music]
We have to wait till after lunch.
- Rules of the road, doctor. - Sorry, Harold.
So how are things?
Not the cavity-fest that you seem to be having, but fine.
You sure you have enough mint milanos?
They're Linda's favorite. We're stocking up.
- Tonight's movie night. - So I heard.
- Are you two in a fight? - Perpetually, child.
Brownies. Those are good frozen. Can we get some?
- I think not. - You can afford them yourself.
Ephram told me you cleaned him out in that all-night game.
- Said he was broke by 11. - Oh, right, yeah. It was rough.
- What was rough? - Bright's poker, he's a shark.
If it's regular, let me know, I'll lower Ephram's allowance.
- The guys were home last night? - Yeah, just a couple.
- With whom you played cards? - Right.
Who exactly was that who fell asleep on the couch
'watching Reba with your mother and I?'
It was after that. We were in the basement.
I mean, we were really quiet. You had already gone to bed.
Tell him I tried, okay?
I wouldn't slam that door if I was you.
If you do, I'm gonna wait out here.
You'll come to get the paper, I'll be out here shivering.
I brought a pillow.
- I'm not afraid to use it. - I hate it when you have props.
You have to know that when you get like that
it makes me think that you're not ready for any of this.
Sex isn't just having a place to yourself.
- I know that. - No, you don't.
I mean, I don't know why sex is so complicated, but it is.
It's something to talk about before it happens, not during.
And then there's you.
'You'll remember your first time for being wonderful'
or for being a disaster.
Which was it for you?
You got scarred?
Alex Braco.
We went to Camp Lenape together for 10 years
from the time we were campers, who'd hold hands
who'd lock themselves in the boathouse during free swim.
Our last summer, Alex told me
that he was waiting until he was in love to have sex
and that he was in love with me.
Nice one.
Anyway..
We met that night in the woods behind the tennis courts.
He brought this thin sheet for us to lay on.
It was so thin that I could feel every twig and rock beneath us.
This was a sharp branch.
The whole thing was crazy. It was..
I just remember being so excited before he came to pick me up.
My girlfriends were over, helping me pick what to wear.
It all seemed so surreal.
And then I was there, and it was happening.
And it was scary and uncomfortable.
Not just physically, but it was like.
It was like suddenly everything was different except for me.
I didn't feel different enough for that to be happening to me.
'That's exactly how it felt'
like it was happening to me, and I was watching
from someplace else, not actually being a part of it.
Finally, I just wanted it to be over, and it was.
That doesn't sound very nice.
Yeah.
It's funny, I haven't thought about that night in a long time.
Is it weird for me to say that I wish I was there?
Not in a freaky, you know
"I like to watch" kind of way.
But I can't stand the thought of you being unhappy.
Even if it is in the past.
You know what?
What?
My roommate is still out of town.
[slow instrumental music]
[hip hop music]
- 'See you.' - 'Go ahead, man.'
You have really good hair.
Thank you. Please don't puke on it.
There's gotta be another bathroom in this mansion.
I don't wanna lose my place. If you find one, scream.
Oh, tell Tommy, I'm still here?
- No problem. - Thanks.
[indistinct chatter]
- Here's the stuff. - 'What is this?'
'Alright, you wanted two?'
My arm. My arm.
I don't know what to do with my arm.
- Just leave it there. - No, no, it's asleep.
- Okay. - Yep, there we go.
Come back. Thank you.
Sorry.
- I'm having a little trouble. - Yeah.
- Sorry, weird belt. - No, it's.. Yeah.
- I got it. - Thank you.
- Did you buy condoms? - Yeah. My bag.
- You okay? - No, I can't do this.
- I can slow down. - No, I can't do this right now.
Oh, did you just?
- It's not funny, okay? - No, of course it's not.
- It's fine, sweetie. - Okay, I can't. I gotta go.
Is this enough frosting?
- If I see cookie, it's not. - Got it.
How you doing, Andy?
Gonna slap an ankle bracelet on him, call it house arrest.
He can say goodbye to that cell phone.
- He talks to himself sometimes. - Good to know.
- Well, it's about time. - Not now.
"Not now"? Try right now.
You wanna talk about last night's poker game again?
Because I had a very interesting conversation with Dr. Abbott.
Fine, I made it up.
- I came home anyway, so.. - 'You lied.'
- Upstairs? - Sounds good.
Ground me and get it over. I'm not in the mood.
Better get in the mood. We are gonna talk.
You are gonna tell me what the hell is going on in your life.
Starting right now.
- Where were you tonight? - Out.
That's not good enough.
- I was at Madison's. - Are you sleeping with her?
- Answer me. - No, I'm not sleeping with her.
I'm never gonna sleep with her or anybody else.
I'm gonna die a ***. That's my life.
Anything good that happens gets bad.
Anything bad gets even worse whenever humanly possible.
Does that make you happy?
- What happened? - Can I please just go?
[slow instrumental music]
[hip hop music]
Amy.
Can I talk to you? I think I lost my ring.
- What ring? - It's my mom's. It's real.
Can you just? Two seconds?
- I'll see you upstairs? - Yeah. Yeah, okay. Two seconds.
- What ring? - Don't sleep with him.
- What? - Trust me. Just don't do it.
I don't know what this is about. Tommy's waiting, I'm gonna go.
I don't think that he's being completely honest with you.
I mean, I know he's not.
I think he's still dealing.
First of all, Tommy never dealt. That was just a rumor. And--
I saw him in the bathroom with a bunch of people.
This is so stupid.
He was giving them these plastic baggies
with white pills in them, and they were giving him cash.
I don't know what you call that, but in my world, that's dealing.
I'm sorry.
You probably saw wrong. Maybe he was in the room, but..
That can't be. It just can't be.
- If you don't believe, ask him. - No, I can't just ask him.
I'm sorry that I saw it. But you know what?
Actually, maybe I'm glad I did. I don't know, I just..
You should not do something that you're gonna regret.
You don't want your first to be somebody--
Somebody who what?
Somebody you can't trust.
Amy.
You gotta see the view from the master bedroom.
It's unbelievable.
I'm coming.
[slow instrumental music]
Well, Delia's asleep.
She said that you were a really great froster.
I hope that means something to you because I got nothing.
- I gotta get going, Andy. - Going? Why?
I had a wonderful night, but I have--
I screwed up with the whole Ephram thing. I'm sorry.
I didn't have to make the whole night about that.
- Of course. It was important. - It was the yelling, wasn't it?
- It's not our best quality. - You were wonderful, really.
Then stay.
We still have that Sunday paper to read.
I gotta go. I'll call you tomorrow night, okay?
Bye.
[slow instrumental music]
It is pretty.
Yeah.
That's just what I was thinking.
- Wait. - Okay.
- You having second thoughts? - I have to ask you something.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. You can ask me anything.
Laynie said that she saw you earlier in the bathroom..
Yeah.
She said you were dealing.
If I tell you it's not what you think, you won't believe me.
Try me.
Okay. Alright. Alright, listen.
There's a reason that I know these guys, okay?
It's not like I'm a part of their inner circle or anything.
Bradley knew I'd know a guy that could hook him up.
I'm not even the point person on this, and I know it sounds bad.
When he asked, I told him I wouldn't do it.
And then what changed your mind?
A couple things, you know?
You have to understand that this guy offered me a lot of cash
just to make the connection.
More money than I make at the pharmacy in like a month.
And that's like rent for my entire family, okay?
Then you and I talked about coming here and what it means.
I knew if I didn't supply the stuff, they wouldn't let me in.
It didn't have to happen here. I would've understood.
I know. I know that. I know that now.
But I just.. I don't want you thinking of me like this.
I don't want you to think of me as the guy
who people call when they need, you know, whatever.
It's not a reputation I want but I have it, unfortunately.
And I guess I was just--
I was trying to keep that from you for as long as possible.
But I promise you, okay? Okay?
I will never, ever do anything this stupid again, okay?
I swear, Amy.
Alright, you know what?
Maybe we should just go.
- Yeah, I think so. - Okay.
Alright, I'll get our coats.
[piano music]
If our yelling didn't scare Linda that would've done it.
That fight scared her? Amateur.
Sorry about the lie.
Oh, yeah.
There was gonna be some serious grounding there.
Could've been years before you saw daylight again.
Well, you'd probably be doing me a favor. Seriously.
Yeah, I gathered that.
I got a feeling I can't compete
with whatever it is you're going through.
So I'm off the hook?
Well, call it an advance on my next screw-up.
But I do wanna talk about what you've been going through.
- No, you don't have to. - No, legally, no.
But I'm gonna take a shot at it anyway.
You and your friends are at an age
where you're deciding when or whether to have sex.
I can't tell you what to do.
A lot of parents try, and I respect the impulse
but you can't stop sex.
It's like trying to hold back the tide with a broom.
There's also a part of me that wants you to have a good time.
But what I can do is advise you.
Sex isn't as simple as it looks.
I got that part down, believe me.
Well, I just wanted you to know that you can come to me
and you can talk to me if you ever need to.
And I want you to know
that I really don't see that happening.
But thank you.
And there haven't been any new developments lately.
A couple discussions, but that's about it.
- 'I'm gonna go call Brittany.' - 'Okay.'
- Hey, Dr. Brown. - Come on in.
We can finish this discussion later.
You wanna go out for a little bit?
Sure, yeah. Yeah, sure.
- Dad? - Have fun.
[slow instrumental music]
When did you start drinking real coffee?
It's only half real. I mixed a bag of cocoa.
Gives it that mochachino effect, but it's cheaper than Starbucks.
You're a pretty smart cookie.
'A lot smarter than I was when I was your age.'
You know, I don't envy your generation.
You don't get much kid time, do you?
Gets pretty serious pretty quick.
Yeah, I guess.
I'm not good with metaphors, Amy.
So no birds, no bees.
I know you're thinking about having sex.
Or maybe you already have.
What makes you think that?
You're 16.
You've got a good-looking boy coming around the house always.
It all adds up.
I never had this talk with Linda.
and I never spoke with your dad
- Time to get it right. - Grandma.
It goes like this.
Sex
is special.
And sex with the right person at the right time
can be pretty darn wonderful.
If you don't have those ingredients--
It's not wonderful.
That's all I'm saying.
And that first time..
Well..
It only happens once.
And you..
My beautiful, lovely granddaughter
deserve to have that moment in your life
be the most perfect it could possibly be.
[slow instrumental music]
Thank you.
[knock on door]
I was just staring at the phone
determined not to leave you another message.
Come on in.
I don't know how to say this.
I was gonna write it in a letter
but everything I wrote sounded so clever.
And I don't wanna be clever right now.
Your kids, I knew how much a part of your life they are
but I didn't know how much a part of you they are too.
- I'm still lost. - 'It's not as simple.'
You're a dad. I can't jeopardize that.
We're being safe. We've been through this.
I think we made a mistake. We were being impetuous--
Wait a minute, hold on a second. Wait a minute. I mean.
You just sprung this, and I don't have prepared remarks
but I think I have a lot to say.
- No. - What?
No.
You don't get to put on the brakes or slow down
or otherwise call this relationship defunct.
- I veto. - I doesn't work that way.
Look, you may have just realized that I'm a dad, but I didn't.
It's been with me every single day since my wife died
and these two strangers were looking, wondering who I was.
- Andy-- - Bad things can happen.
If you don't think I know that after losing my wife
you have no business being my friend, much less anything else.
I know things can go wrong.
Which is exactly the reason why I think it's worth the risk
if I can feel this way again.
So no.
If you wanna break up with me, you better find a better reason.
Catch me messing around with a nurse.
- So I thought of a bright side. - Oh, yeah?
The *** didn't have a chance to break.
- You know what we need? - I still miss my pride.
We need a song.
I already wrote you a song. It didn't work well, remember?
I meant a radio song, dumb- ***.
That way whenever you hear it, you get this goofy grin
and you can go, "Oh, that's our song."
We never agree on music.
Fine, I'm putting on the radio. Whatever's on, that's it.
We could end up with a shaving jingle.
[country music]
- Okay, bad idea. - What are you talking about?
It's the perfect anthem for youthful misguided longing.
Best two out of three.
[slow instrumental music]
One more time.
[rock music]
- Give it up. - Never.
