I have put together the ultimate care package for Claudia.
I found those peanut butter pretzel she likes, you know?
And four paperbacks on young musicians in love.
Listen to this.
A veritable medley of gummi bears--
-Kirsten! -What?
-Listen to this. -[Answering machine beeps]
[On answering machine] Charlie, it's Daphne.
You gotta stop-- okay, you can't keep calling me.
I can't think. I'm just--
could you turn down the music? Please?
[Sighs]
Okay, you're making me crazy, Charlie. You gotta stop.
You gotta leave me alone.
Can you believe that?
I'm making her crazy.
She takes off, barely says a word to me...
Is camping out on some guy's couch that I don't even know,
and I'm making her crazy.
I'm gonna leave you alone.
What are you doing?
Daphne and I are gonna get a few things straight right now.
-I don't believe this. -What?
It's disconnected. She disconnected the phone.
Well... That was a stupid thing to do.
Man, I don't...
How do I know she's not gonna just take off and go?
For all I know, she's already gone. I mean, she could do anything.
She could leave the state. She could leave the country. Then how am I gonna find her?
Then I'm never gonna find her.

Yes, it's work study. No, it's not a free ride.
Punch in late, I'll dock you.
Don't meet your sandwich quota, I'll dock you.
-Forget your hat-- -you'll dock me.
Wow. I, I didn't know anyone could look good in these hats.
-Josh! -You two know each other?
-Yeah. -Not really.
I don't usually let friends work together. Too many distractions.
I've got my eye on you two.
[Giggles]
Looks like it's up to me to show you the ropes.
-Spears or chips? -You read the manual.
No. My family owns a restaurant.
Big mistake putting that down on my work study application.
That's not why you got the job.
I got a buddy in work study.
-And you... -Pulled some strings,
promised I'd write his term paper, and do his laundry.
Just for a month.
All to get me assigned next to you?
I just thought, you know, we're both writers,
we're both stuck in work study. Why not make it fun?
You know, spar over whether cordelia's really king lear's best daughter,
or just a pain in the butt who caused all his problems...
While we're chopping tomatoes.
But if you want me to go back to my buddy...
-Hand me some gloves. -You sure?
Speaking from a strictly feminist perspective,
it wouldn't have killed cordelia to be a little more proactive.
Don't help me out or anything.
Oh! Sorry.
Thanks. I got the rest.
Is this all there is?
That's about five days' worth...
On account of how this mailman,
can't seem to get down with how Reeves lives with salinger.
The guy's clearly a mental giant.
Hey, some of that might be for me.
What's the big deal with the mail anyway?
I haven't heard from my mother in two months.
Uh-huh. I see. So you're upset
because you haven't gotten one of her letters,
which when you do get, you just throw in a drawer anyway.
I've seen you. You don't even read them.
Yeah. Well, it's because I know what they're gonna say.
You know, how it was a bad idea for me to move in with you,
and how I hurt them. I mean, who needs to read that stuff anyway?
But it's not like I don't like to get them.
Look at this, "committee to save the attack rifle."
Why me? What makes them think I would fork over good money--
Bailey, I'm worried.
Don't be. I promise, not one dime.
Not about that. About my parents.
I mean, they could be sick or something. My dad's heart is not that great.
Really? You never told me that.
Yeah. His family has a history of heart disease.
Well, maybe you just... You know... Miss them.
No. No. I am worried. I told you.
Sarah, that's allowed.
You're allowed to miss them. I mean, they're your parents, right?
So, we figured once the baby was born,
if she couldn't handle being a mother...
I'd be the mother... And the father. I'd do it myself.
I see. And you have this agreement in writing, right?
Not exactly, but she knows that.
And Daphne knows how important this kid is to me,
and that's why... If she takes off, we just... We gotta stop her.
I mean, it's taken me a long time to figure out
what I want, how I see my life,
and being sick, having cancer,
kind of made everything come into focus.
I'm sorry. You had cancer?
Yeah. But, uh... I'm okay. I'm fine.
I got the all clear from my doctor like eight months ago, and it's totally behind me.
And, um, I'm covered, insurance-wise, through my brother.
Your brother? Well, why wouldn't...
[Sighs] Does your job not have health benefits?
Well...
See, uh...
I don't have a job right at the moment.
I was running our family business, but I am--
Charlie...
-I am doing some carpentry over there. -Charlie.
There's no point in my taking your case,
because I can tell you right now, we'd lose.
Now, I've been doing this a long time,
and I have never seen a judge award full custody,
to an unmarried, unemployed dad. It's just not gonna happen.
Look, either you go out and you find a job,
or the court is going to say that the baby is better off with its mother.

[Laughs] Oh, man, Dave...
You're, like, the best songwriter in the whole world.
Obviously, you don't get out much.
Not for about seven months.
[Dave plays a rimshot drum roll]
Man, Charlie won't even let me crank the stereo.
Oh, remember that time when you still lived upstairs from me,
and that guy across the hall called the cops on us?
Yeah! Oh, my god! That was my 21st birthday party.
You, Stan, and Isaac played me the Beatles' birthday song--
for, like, 12 hours straight.
Yeah! Oh, man... I miss those guys.
So, let's call 'em, get 'em over here.
Wait. Where are you going?
Uh, pay phone.
I sort of forgot to pay the phone bill,
and they kinda turned it off.
Dave?
Dave!
What do they do at a kiwanis meeting, anyway?
They could sacrifice a virgin, for all I know.
I bring the food, they pay the bill, and you get the leftovers.
Everybody's happy.
So, wow, dorm life. Not bad.
I could see living in a place like this.
Come on, you hated college.
The way I did it, yeah--
half in school and half at the restaurant.
You were just working too much.
Three hours a day is not so bad.
Three... What? You're working?
-Food services. Wanna see my hat? -Wait a second.
You shouldn't have to work on top of being a full-time student.
I can handle it.
Yeah, but you shouldn't have to.
This is Stanford. Jule, you gotta keep on the ball.
You gotta stay focused. If you're not in class, then you should be in the library.
Oh, gee, thanks, dad.
Or hanging out with friends. That's part of college, too--
having fun.
Well, the thing is, it sort of is fun.
Look, I know what's going on here.
You're worried about the money, right?
Well, don't be, because I would be really happy to help out.
-I'll just write you-- -Bailey, you don't have to do that.
-I know I don't have to. I want to. -But I'm telling you--
look, will you shut up and just let me do this?
Please? Really...
It'll make me happy knowing that at least one of us,
had a pure college experience.
Go tell them you quit.
[School bell rings]
I cannot spend another weekend held hostage at Hanover.
I mean, if we don't go to Boston, I'll die.
You think your doofus brother will drive us?
Boston, cool. That's, like, 50 miles from here, right?
Oh, I have just been dying to check out Harvard square.
Uh-huh.
My brother-- he has 28 unpaid parking tickets.
-Uh... -My dad took the car away.
Okay, let's start. Last night's homework,
question one, two substances, equal mass, unequal volume.
Which has the smaller density? Ms. Hamilton?
I don't know.
Ms. Brooks?
I don't know.
Ms. salinger?
I don't know.
Sounds like a trio.
Ms. Hamilton, think.
Hard.
Harder.
The one with the smaller volume?
Is that right, Ms. salinger?
Hmm. If I were to put that question on the test,
is that how you'd answer? Is that what you'd write down?
No.
What would you write down?
The one with the larger volume.
Right. And how do we determine that?
Density is the measure of a mass of a substance
which occupies one unit of volume.
Thank you.
Anyway, I was thinking, how many times
did you sit across from me at that bar at salinger's
and say, "Charlie, when are you gonna take the leap into--"
the career you always knew you wanted. Oh, you bet.
So, does the offer still stand?
-Welcome to the firm. -All right.
I can get you set up in the stock room in the morning,
then we'll move you from department to department so you learn everything,
and you get full credit for the work at s.F.
And, uh, what does that pay?
Well, it is an internship program, Charlie.
I mean, you didn't think you were starting at the top, did you?
You don't go to medical school,
and the first day say, "when do I operate?"
Right. It's just, uh...
Look, the program's not gonna work for me.
Is there any, any kind of real job that I could get?
Charlie, you've taken a couple of courses in college.
You design for a hobby.
You know how many people would kill for this chance?
In a couple of years--
i don't have a couple of years!
I'm sorry. I don't have a couple of years.
[Doorbell rings]
[Clears throat]
Okay, um... Do it again.
[Rings doorbell]
Nobody's home.
Nobody's home at 11 o'clock.
Okay, now I'm definitely worried.
So they went to the movies.
No. They're always home by now, watching nightline.
It's simple. We'll go in. All right? I mean, you've got a key, right?
You know what? We should go in.
That's what I said.
I can't.
Just... Tell me that everything's all right.
Hello?
Hello? Anybody?
[Phone ringing]
Why am I tiptoeing?
Hello?
[Answering machine clicks]
[Mrs. Reeves] This is 555-0161. Please leave a message.
[Beep]
[Man] Carol? Pick up if you're there. It's me.
Oh, means you're not home yet.
Well, you left your watch here, but that's not why I'm calling.
That's just an excuse.
I wanted to say I wish you could've stayed the night.
I know your husband's gonna be back in town,
but let me know if you get out of that thing with him tomorrow night, okay?
Okay. Thinking of you.
[Beeps]
Bailey? Is everything all right?
God, I feel like I don't even know where I am.
What planet I'm on. My mother...
Maybe you're just jumping to conclusions.
Did you recognize his voice?
Because maybe there could be another, like...
Spin to this if you knew who it was.
I know who it was.
It was a guy wanting to spend the night with my mother.
God, Bailey, who do you think it was, a watch repairman?
I just think...
My father gave her that watch.
Are you sure that she's not back there?
'Cause I called and I reminded her.
I'm sorry, Mr. salinger. Ms. jablonsky hasn't arrived yet.
But her appointment was a half an hour ago.
Don't you know where she is?
I've got an opening tomorrow at 2:00.
Do you think Ms. jablonsky will be rescheduling?
I have no clue what Ms. jablonsky's doing.
[Rock 'n' roll music playing]
Whoa, daph, you are lookin' fine!
Although, and don't take this the wrong way--
but that's some serious poundage you put on.
Yeah. Yeah, well, it's temporary.
Yeah. Mine, too.
Cut way back on the carbs. Stuff goes straight to my ass.
Isaac, do you think that you could,
like, turn the music down, you know, just a little bit?
Yeah, sure.
Hey, guys, open up! Pregnant lady's gotta pee!
I'm trying to tell you, he's not dead!
-He is, too, man! -Excuse me, guys.
He was in rehab. The man was clean.
Stan, I gotta go.
How do you explain the fact they're gonna tour without him?
The dead without Jerry--
like anyone is gonna be buying tickets to see that!
A little privacy, please?
Follow this, Dave. They're trying to create a demand, dig it?
So that when he resurfaces--
look, man, my bass player knows a roadie
whose old lady's shrink was in rehab with him.
I mean, he saw the body!
I know that, man!
I waited for an hour and a half, and she never showed up.
I mean, obviously, she's not taking care of this baby.
That's gotta give me some rights.
I know that! I know that.
I'm just asking you-- fine.
Fine. I said fine. I'll have a job by the end of the day.
-Hey! -Hey.
You weren't at work today.
Yeah, I know. I quit.
-You quit? -Mmm-hmm.
Uh-huh. Okay, uh...
-Got it. -No. You--
no, that's fine. Whatever you want, Julia.
I'll stop.
No. It's not what you're thinking. Why don't we-- Josh!
Why don't we get some coffee or something?
-What's the matter with you? -What?
Talk about schizophrenic. One day, you can't stand me.
The next day, you can't get enough of me.
I know. It seems kind of fickle, huh?
No. It seems kind of mean.
And manipulative.
And, I don't know, maybe that's the game you play with guys.
You pull 'em in. You push 'em away.
No. That's not... There's just... Stuff.
Josh, there's stuff you don't know.
Like what?
-Hi, Julia. -Who's that?
My boyfriend.
-Mr. kroop. -Ms. salinger.
I was wondering if I could, uh, talk to you.
You are talking to me.
Look, I really would rather you not call on me in class.
I mean, I know I'm expected to know the answers,
and I do. I mean... I will.
Look, I'll write every one of them down
next to the time you ask the question,
and I'll give it to you after class.
Look, I'll do extra credit, I'll correct homework, I'll...
Please, Mr. kroop...
Just don't make me talk to you in class.
I'll make you a deal.
Anything.
I won't tell you how to learn.
You don't tell me how to teach.
[School bell rings]
Oh, god.
Not exactly the person you wanted to see, right?
No. How could you think that?
No. I just...
I'd given up. I didn't think you'd ever be back.
Oh...
Sarah, I'm so glad to see you.
I came here last night.
Bailey and me, we came here.
I heard the message.
I know that you're having an affair.
What? No. Sarah--
-mom, I heard the message. -It's not an affair. It's...
A relationship.
You knew your father and I...
I wrote you how unhappy we were.
I, I don't understand.
We're separated.
We're getting a divorce.
Your father moved out two months ago.
After he moved out,
i didn't write you because I couldn't figure out how to ex...
I didn't even know you guys were having trouble.
I thought that...
I assumed you read my letters.
Why did you do that to me?
Were you just so intent on embarrassing me? Is that it?
I mean, how tough is it to say, "hey, I have a boyfriend"?
You could've mentioned that, oh, say, the first time I asked you out?
I didn't 'cause I'm-- I'm--
I'm kinda in this relationship right now...
And I'm... Also not.
I mean... It's over.
It's essentially over,
but I'm having a really hard time with that.
It's like... It's like I think about you...
And then I feel really guilty about leaving him behind.
You understand?
Not really.
Me, either.
An emergency teaching credential?
First the principal didn't want to give it to me,
'cause she said I was overqualified.
I kinda wouldn't take no for an answer.
Starting Monday... I'm gonna be a shop teacher.
Shop teacher?
Woodrow Wilson junior high.
The only thing is, I don't get paid for two weeks,
and this lawyer, she's the best, so she costs...
-And I was hoping-- -yeah, no problem.
Whatever you need till you're on your feet.
This, uh, this teaching gig.
That's just temporary, right?
Until you get this thing settled.
-No, bay. -Why not?
Because this is not about me just looking responsible
for the 15 minutes the judge is reviewing my file.
It's about me really making a commitment to something
that's gonna allow me to keep my kid.
So you're committing to being a shop teacher?
Come on, man. We used to make fun of those guys.
Remember Mr. sinclair... With the dandruff and the missing pinky?
It's a job, Bailey, and I needed a job.
So is being an architect. What happened to that?
Your whole life, that's what you wanted.
That takes time... And money.
I gotta be an intern, I gotta go to school...
-Okay, so I'll pay for that. -I don't want you to.
Look, I know how much you like to whip out the checkbook bay,
and be everybody's fixer, but you can't fix this one.
Okay? I gotta show the court that I can support my baby, me.
And not my little brother or anybody else.
And it doesn't matter what big plans I had to give up,
or what job I gotta take.
Whatever it takes, I'll do it. I don't care.
If it means I get to keep my baby.
Oh, come on. Jewel wouldn't even exist
if it weren't for joni Mitchell.
What do you mean?
"You were meant for me" is a classic in its own right.
Please! Blue, court and spark, ladies of the canyon.
You just like Jewel 'cause she's got big boobs.
I think she's genuinely talented.
What's wrong with big boobs anyway?
What do you think, Julia?
Hmm? You are not dragging me into your little lovers quarrel.
I've gotta get to class. Bye!
Bye!
You have the worst taste in music,
but you got such great taste in women.
I always thought her letters would be about me--
how wrong I was...
"Bailey's not right for you." "You don't know how to live your life."
And they're not?
Yeah, for a while, they were.
Then she just said, "come back."
You know? No matter what.
You know what? I should've.
'Cause it's like after I left, they had nothing to talk about.
They even stopped fighting for a while.
God, my mom, after I left, she just...
After you left?
Sarah, no.
No. They didn't break up because of you.
I mean, remember that. Remember how they pushed you away.
They pushed you.
Yeah, but if I had read these letters
like normal people do when they get mail...
-Sarah... -No, if I had read these and gone to see them...
You don't know that.
If I mix a mole of sodium with a beaker of h2o...
What do I get? Ms. Brooks.
I don't know.
It was in last night's homework assignment.
It's gonna be on the test.
Uh, the Dean needs me for a minute.
Ms. salinger...
Take over.
Me?
You did last night's homework, didn't you?
Yes.
So you know the reaction.
While I go down the hall, review it with the class.
[Giggling]
Miss salinger, miss salinger...
If I mix a shot of vodka with a pitcher of beer, what do I get?
[Class laughs]
Vomit...
Lot's of it.
[Class laughs]
But, uh...
But if you're talking about sodium and h2o,
you know, sometimes it-- it helps me to think of Melrose place.
You know, Amanda and Kyle,
how if they're apart,
everything's fine,
but you put them together,
and there's an explosion.
[Laughter]
Dave, I'm trying to sleep here!
Hey, Dave, think next time you go to the store,
you can maybe pick up something besides beer?
Damn it!
Oh! Dave, could you lay off those drums?
What's up with you? You used to like my music.
That was before I'd been up for, like, 24 hours straight
because my back is killing me from sleeping on this futon,
and before I lost the luxury of peeing in private,
which I have to do, like, every five minutes!
Whoa!
What is going on here? I, I mean, first Stan
tries to sell me that crap about Jerry Garcia, and now you?
I mean, what is this, "beat up on Dave" day?
[Sighs]
I'm sorry, I just...
Actually, I don't feel very well,
'cause I haven't-- haven't eaten any real food in, like, 2 days.
And the baby's kicking.
I'm scared I'm not taking care of it.
Well, what do you want from me?
I mean, I don't know anything about babies. [Scoffs]
I know.
I mean, you asked if you could crash, and I let you crash.
If you want service, find a hotel.
[Begins drumming]
-[Man] Sarah? -Dad.
Oh. Hello, sweetheart.
Oh, golly. Oh.
Listen, I know your mother talked to you.
This is new.
Yeah, well, you know,
fish swim, middle-aged divorced guys jog.
[Sighs]
Look, I came here because I wanted to--
honey, you don't need a reason. You're my daughter.
I'm glad you came.
-Come on, let's go in. -No, it's okay out here.
Okay.
This is really weird, you know, seeing you here,
thinking this is your home.
Oh, Sarah, it is all 100% weird...
But I'm better off.
Yeah, well, I'm not.
I can't help it.
You and mom, can't you do something?
You know, maybe-- maybe if you spent more time together,
you know, talked to each other.
You know, maybe if I were there...
Dad, I really need you guys to be together.
Sarah, honey,
i wonder if you can hear how selfish you sound right now?
No, wait--
honey, we all need, we've all lost, okay? I lost you, for one thing.
And then I lost, well, what I thought was a marriage,
but your, your mother lost something, too, you know.
None of us has a family anymore.
You want this to be all about you.
It isn't.
Honey, people change and people grow.
They change for sure, hopefully they grow.
Hey...
You grow, too, okay?
This is awfully cozy.
Josh, what's--
look, I know this is uh, none of my business,
but, uh...
I like this girl, even though she doesn't like me.
I like you, Josh.
Quiet! Now, I spent all day going back and forth on this.
I mean, what are you supposed to do,
when someone you really like,
is getting hosed and they're totally clueless?
-Tell them. -That's funny coming from you.
-What? I-- -you don't get a vote!
Hey, watch it, buddy.
No, you watch it! You can't treat Julia this way!
-You don't even deserve her! -Josh, cool it.
Julia, I saw your roommate kissing your boyfriend.
What?
-You were kissing Julia's boyfriend? -No!
-You've a boyfriend? -Not exactly.
Don't play innocent.
Hey, don't talk to her like that!
Watch it!
Come on!
Oh, god!
Oh, hey!
Hey, just stop it! Stop it!
Stop it!
-Stop! -[Grunting]
Wow! That's all they pay teachers nowadays?
Hey, you told me to get a job, I got a job.
No, no, no, no, this is good. This, this helps,
and it's a job working with kids, which looks great on paper.
Salary is not the most important thing,
unless you're gonna tell me that the baby's mother is an investment broker.
[Laughs] Daphne? Hardly.
Up until, uh, she got pregnant,
she was just doing, you know...
Stuff here and there.
Stuff? Can you be more specific?
Well, uh, let's see, when we met--
actually, it's how we met--
she was doing, um, singing telegrams,
stuff like that, you know.
Kids' birthday parties, bachelor parties.
Bachelor parties? Did she take her clothes off?
Well...
Yeah.
I mean, not all of her clothes, not everything.
But essentially, she was a stripper.
She supported herself by stripping.
I guess you could--
good, good. This is good.
Any arrests, solicitation, maybe?
Solict-- look, she-- she wasn't a hooker.
I mean...
Once, when she first moved here, she--
but that was totally not her fault. Look...
She was really young.
Do you want to win this case, Charlie?
She was dancing in some club, just dancing,
and I guess the manager was running some kind of escort service on the side,
and one night, the police made a sweep...
Okay. We can use that. Prostitution arrest.
Anything else?
[Owen] Charlie!
Man, that took forever.
I know it did, kiddo. I'm sorry.
We found a parking space,
which means we should probably just eat in the area.
Okay.
So, tell me.
[Sighs]
-It didn't go great. -No, it's, uh...
She thinks we're in pretty good shape, actually.
-Okay? -It's just...
I told her some stuff about Daphne,
things that I shouldn't have,
stuff Daphne told me when...
Well, you know when you're first getting to know somebody
and you want them to like you,
you, you tell them all your stories,
your worst moments, your biggest mistakes,
the things you can't believe you did.
-And you told your lawyer? -Yeah, I told her.
What? What are you thinking?
Nothing.
Jerry springer, actually. That's what I was thinking.
You ever watch shows like that,
where these crazy people just turn on each other,
and they reveal all this painful, private stuff?
And it's fun to watch, right, 'cause it doesn't seem real.
But you never actually think,
"god, that could be me up there.
I'm capable of that."
But, I mean, it's not like you had a choice, right?
Look, I...
Um...
I know you, you all hate me here.
I mean, you think I'm like this brainiac, geek.
And it's true. I can't change that.
I mean, I can't just, just forget what I know.
Well, so if that's the way it has to be, then so be it.
It's just the way it has to be.
Do you think we could go over tonight's assignment?
Sure.
Yeah. Uh...
Silver chloride.
What's it like? Um...
Ah, like new mascara,
smooth, liquidy,
but you know when it gets all old and clumpy?
Oh, I hate that. It flakes off.
Yes, that's the precipitate.
[Door opens]
What's a catalyst?
Got a lipstick?
Hello?
Hello!
Hey, man.
Aren't you even a little bit worried about a strange guy walking into your house?
Maybe you should get a lock.
-You a cop? -No.
Then no problem. [Scoffs]
Look, I'm looking for Daphne. I've gotta talk to her.
She's not here.
Not here? What do you mean not here? She's staying here, right?
She told me she was staying with you.
She took off this morning.
With who? Where?
What, you let a pregnant woman walk out of here alone with no questions, nothing?
Hey, man, don't yell at me.
She just left.
-Hey, you want some pizza, man? -I need to use your phone.
Uh...
Disconnected. [Scoffs]
Hey, man!
Do you think Maggie's mad?
[Laughing]
No. Uh, I think she just needs to meditate for a while,
regain her center.
[Sighs]
Why did you tell him I was your boyfriend anyway?
I don't know.
'Cause you were there and you were naked,
and it was either that or...
Or make this huge announcement about how I feel...
About guys.
Which is how?
Julia?
I'm married.
Whoa.
[Laughs] Yeah.
Actually, I'm-- I'm not even married, I'm separated.
And I can't--
I keep...
It's just so weird.
'Cause for, like, the longest time
I was completely wrapped up in this one guy--
Griffin, and, and now, all of a sudden...
There's this other guy, Josh--
and he's funny, and he's smart, and he's read king lear.
I get it.
No, you don't.
You and Maggie are--
you guys have this perfect
high school sweetheart, college sweetheart thing going.
Don't be so sure.
Uh, I mean, it's great.
We know each other better than anyone.
There's no surprises.
But you know what sucks?
No surprises.
I think if you're lucky enough to meet someone new, who you really like...
I think you kinda owe it to yourself to go for it,
even if you did spend high school in love with someone else.
Hey, there's three movies at cine-city
that start within 15 minutes of each other.
I vote we just show up and go to whichever one we're not late for.
I vote we go to the one where the world doesn't explode in every scene.
That could be tough, definitely tough, but we ought to get going.
You take a snapshot,
of your life the last time you leave someplace.
Then, I don't know, it's dumb, but you think it's never gonna change.
You figured you could go back any night at 11:00,
and they'd be watching nightline.
Yeah, you get this.
I've got snapshots, too,
with parents in them.
[Door closes]
[Charlie] Kirsten.
You know, I was all set to the take the high road here--
Charlie--
to see if maybe the two of us couldn't find some way to work this out,
-but screw that. -Listen--
i don't care what I have to do, I don't care what it takes,
-I'm not taking another second of her crap, Kirsten. -Charlie, stop.
This is Charlie salinger. I need to speak to Martha leviton right away.
-Daphne's disappeared. I don't know where the hell she is. -Charlie...
[Sighs]
You're back.
Yep...
No...
I guess.
Well...
I'm glad.
The thing is,
I don't really want to be here, Charlie.
You and me...
We're not right for each other, that's pretty obvious.
And if I could go someplace else...
But I can't.
You see,
I thought I could just walk away.
But no matter how faraway I walk,
the baby's still there.
I can't do this by myself.
So...
Here I am.
Come inside.
