Previously on The O.C.
- Hi, Theresa. - Hi, Marissa.
Hey. I'm looking for Theresa. We're, uh, engaged.
Engaged?
You look good. Luke, I'm Marissa's mother.
You're a student at the school.
You mean, it's over? No. See you tonight.
A friend of mine is in trouble. I want you to help him out.
Uncle Shawn, in that room
that you accidentally stumbled into,
were documents containing information valuable to Caleb.
Construction's a dirty business.
But my answer's still no. What about Kirsten?
She's complicit in this too.
Do you love her? I don't know.
Better be ready to fight for her.
I don't want you to go. Why don't I want to go?
SETH: But what-what kind of kiss was it?
I don't know, a kiss. My lips, Theresa's lips, a kiss.
Lips, now that's interesting.
Uh, was there tongue? I'm not answering that.
Why? You really want to know?
No. But just tell me this.
What sort of level of kiss are we talking about?
Was it like a Christina- Madonna peck,
or was it like a Brittany-Madonna sort of smooch?
Or was it full-on, like an Al and Tipper Gore lip lock?
It was just a kiss, okay? Okay, you guys a couple now? She's staying here?
If so, where is she going to live? And how? What's her credit?
What sorta lease is she looking to sign?
Are we talking about like a year?
Or a month-to-month, or is she looking to buy?
There's no lease, okay? Okay. So then what, she's going back?
And what'll you do? Are you going to commute from Chino?
Whose car? How will you pay for gas? How are you gonna do that?
What freeway? Are you gonna take the 55 to the five,
or the 91 to the 71? If you're gonna take...
Whoa! Just, just...Whoa. Okay. I'll just whoa.
You guys kissed, and you should've a plan, 'cause it's kind of a big deal.
No, it's not. You're making it. Really.
Really. I don't know when I'd see her again. Hi.
Theresa. Hey.
Hey. We were just discussing your plan.
What plan? Yeah. Exactly.
I had off. I thought you might need a ride to school.
Oh, yeah. Great. Yeah.
I hope it's okay, me stopping by. It's fine. Come on.
Yeah, sure. Why wouldn't it be? Okay.
(knocking)
Marissa. Hello.
Hey.
Theresa. Hi. I didn't think you'd be...
Staying? Yeah, well...
What's up?
Nothing. I thought you guys would need a ride to school.
Oh, thanks. Cool.
Well, I can go with Marissa and
Ryan and Theresa can go together.
No, no, Seth, really. It's okay.
Actually, it makes more sense if you take them.
Why? Because we go to the same school or because I live here?
I'll go with Marissa. And Ryan and Theresa can go...
MARISSA: Yeah. Sorry.
You know what? I should have called first. I should have called.
I'll just see you guys at school.
I shouldn't just stop by. I'm going to go.
No, wait, wait-- it's okay. Call me later.
Well, looks like we're hitchhiking.
(piano and acoustic guitar strumming gentle melody)
* California, here we come
* Right back where we started from *
* California
* California...
* Here in Come...
* California
* Here we come.
Morning, beautiful. Good morning.
Marissa.
Kirsten. Sandy.
Well, you're not going to believe who is
Riviera magazine's Man of the Year.
Theresa.
Mrs. Cohen. Mr. Cohen.
SANDY: Well, that's nice.
I mean she really deserves the award. Good kid.
It's my Dad.
My vote stays with Theresa.
Hey. Hi.
Hey, is it a good morning?
So, Ryan, a couple of your friends stopped by, briefly.
Yeah. We know. It was awkward.
So is Theresa staying? Yeah, looks that way. Looks that way.
I thought she was going home. No. Change of plans.
It's amazing. His lips don't even move.
Well, how long is she staying? Well, uh, uh...
You tell them.
We're... we're figuring it all out.
Well, is she, going to what, rent a place?
What kind of lease? Month-to-month? Year?
Can she buy? What'll she do? I am this way for a reason.
Yeah, I told you, it's only for the tennis tournament.
A job after that? What about her fiance?
Is she going back to school?
Well... uh... school. Bye.
Now, you know why I do all the talking.
We're going to need a ride. Thanks.
I'll take them. It's on my way to the office.
Is my dad gonna be in a good mood?
He should be. He's Man of the Year.
I meant the case.
Are you going to take it? I'm thinking about it.
It's just, we're going to host the reception here for my dad's award
and it'd be nice if Uncle Shawn could be here.
Not if we have to pay for the bar tab.
I'm thinking about it.
(playing mellow rock melody)
Hey.
Can I ask you something?
Yeah, sure.
When you and I broke up
and I started dating Ryan,
was it hard for you?
To see us together? Yeah.
But hey, we wouldn't have broken up if I hadn't...
deserved it.
I guess now I know what it feels like, huh?
To deserve it.
(sighs)
The sooner you realize that it's never going to go back
to the way it was...
...the sooner you can move on.
Okay. I'll see you guys later.
Hey, Ryan... I'm sorry about this morning. No, no, no. That's okay.
I just didn't realize she was gonna be there.
Yeah, there was a change of plans.
How long is she staying for?
I don't know. She's gotta find a job, place to live.
Minor details, huh?
Yeah.
Well, if you need any help.
Thanks.
Check out Gramps. He looks so angry. That's because he is.
I don't know why? He's on the cover of a magazine.
Can't believe that doesn't leave him happy and fulfilled, right?
Totally. I know.
Oh! I love the society page.
It's like suddenly all of the people we know are famous.
Wow. Diana Caan totally got a chin implant.
They have chin implants? Yeah. My dad does them all the time.
He says chins are the new nose. So did Picasso.
Really? What hospital does he work for?
Kidding! I'm not that dumb. Just shallow.
SETH: So, all this talk
of Newport and plastic surgery boring you, Anna?
No. Actually, I'm savoring it.
I won't be hearing it much longer.
I'm leaving.
You're getting desert? No. I'm going back to Pittsburgh.
What? I'm gonna go live with my aunt and uncle.
I just kind of had enough of Newport, so...
I'm moving.
Park ranger cadet? Full-time position available.
I wouldn't look good in the hat.
You get to put out forest fires.
Moving on...
Classifieds are, uh...
Depressing?
* You gave me
You'll find something. We'll figure it out. I know.
I'm glad you called me to come meet you.
Who knew being unemployed could be so much fun?
* ..and you bore a hole in
(bell ringing)
I got to get to class.
* What I am
* And what you are
* Some things just don't hold the way... *
It will be okay.
Okay.
* Oh, love doesn't feel so cold. *
Caitlin. Hi.
Hi, Luke. What's going on?
Well, I just finished school for the day, you know,
which is always a good thing.
I so know what you mean.
Luke, what are you doing here? We're talking, Mom.
Go get ready. Daddy's coming to take you to dinner.
So I'll see you soon?
Luke, you know not to come here. We meet at the motel.
I just thought that you needed help with your DSL.
Luke, as much as I want high-speed Internet access,
it's not worth Caitlin becoming suspicious.
(car door closes)
Jules.
Luke. Luke just came by to defrag my hard drive.
Okay.
Hurry along, Luke. Make it quick.
I'll make sure Caitlin's ready.
Hey. Should I put another piece of swordfish on for Theresa?
Or Marissa? Or any other ladies you plan on having over?
I was going to go pick up Theresa, so...
Done, and done.
So how's that going with you guys?
Uh... good.
Just trying to figure it out.
It being? Pretty much everything.
You want to know what I think? You're going to tell me either way, right?
Like my own son.
You're in high school. She should be.
You're both in way over your heads.
She's got no real job. She's got no place to live.
Don't ask if she can stay here. I wouldn't.
Good, you don't know what Kirsten did the last time.
Theresa's got family in Chino. She's got a life in Chino.
Running away is not the answer.
I know. It's kind of crazy.
No.
It's sweet.
It's totally misguided,
but, yeah, it's kind of charming.
You got to tell her.
It's time she faced the music.
Or at least the fiancée.
And you'll do that with the white lights in your backyard, right?
Of course, Dad.
Good. I love the white lights.
And no cilantro. I hate cilantro. You're Man of the Year.
I think they can make some food without cilantro.
I'll have to make a toast.
You got that '73 Dom in your wine cellar, yes?
I think you went through that on your birthday.
Hey, Kirsten.
Mr. Nichol.
Why don't you call him Caleb?
Congrats on your award. Ah, it means nothing.
They're lucky I agreed to pose for their front cover.
You should use that in your speech. Place for Theresa?
I'm gonna have to get back to you on that.
KIRSTEN: I'm going to go check on the Dom.
You know, I was thinking Chardonnay for dinner.
Nah, get the Pinot.
Do what you like. It's your house. I'm just making a salad.
SANDY: Man of the Year and still so modest.
I'm so glad to see it hasn't gone to your head, Cal.
The case. Have you made your decision?
I've decided what it'll take to make me decide.
You tell Kirsten everything.
She's better off not knowing. No, she's not. You are.
She is already implicated without her knowledge.
Then why worry her?
This may all go away, you know. It may not.
And I won't spend the next year lying to her,
so, if you want my help, you tell her everything.
(crickets chirping)
Hi.
Hey.
We should talk. I have news.
(anxious laughter)
You go first. I just got off the phone with Eddie.
And I told him I'm not coming home anytime soon.
You did?
He didn't take it well. But uh, now that I did it,
which I can't believe I did,
I feel so much more free
or something.
What did you want to talk about?
How do you feel about swordfish?
(sighing)
So she's leaving? No, she's staying.
What? When did you talk to Anna?
Anna? Yeah, she told me she's going back to Pittsburgh.
Anna's going back?
Well, uh, uh, not anymore, according to you.
I'm totally confused. She-- Anna-- is leaving.
She-- Theresa-- is staying.
Right. Got it.
(heavy sigh)
So she really is leaving.
That sucks.
Do you think it's 'cause of me?
(sighs)
I can't believe I caused a girl
to leave the state-- the county, maybe, sure.
You really think it's 'cause of you?
Well, I mean, we broke up,
she went back east, she had a great time.
She comes back, only to see me
standing on a coffee cart declaring my eternal love for Summer.
Or maybe she just doesn't feel that comfortable here.
Not everybody does. I know. I get that.
If it is 'cause of me, maybe I can talk her out of it.
It's just that I can't ask her
if it's 'cause of me without sounding totally self-absorbed.
I'm not self-absorbed, right, Ryan?
Me. Me. Me. Huh? Sorry.
Uh, just thinking about Theresa.
(heavy sigh)
She's staying. What am I going to do?
She's leaving. What am I going to do?
Hi, Kiki.
Thanks for meeting me. Is everything okay?
Yeah, just... why don't you have a seat.
Is it Uncle Shawn?
A hotel room that he accidentally
stumbled into the other day--
Joe McKuen was staying there.
Well, that's quite a coincidence,
since Joe McKuen is the leading lumber supplier
on the West Coast.
Not such a coincidence.
It's not the first time that he's accidentally
stumbled into a hotel room,
it's just the first time he's got caught.
I knew Uncle Shawn was a tough negotiator,
and yeah, well, he sent extra-nice Christmas presents
to certain Teamsters,
but breaking and entering, theft?
And what else: Blackmail? Racketeering?
Is he going to jail? Not if Sandy can help him.
Well, if he can't, are they going to go after you?
I'm afraid it's not just me.
Hey.
Catching up on Western Civ? Yeah. Spanish Inquisition. Lot of fun.
Yeah. Tell me about it. Could they give us any more reading.
Get up.
Eddie, Eddie, what's going on? You know exactly what's going on.
You sleep with her?
No. No. No?
Why'd she tell me she's not coming back?
Why'd she stay here? This isn't right time...
No! Don't touch me, man.
After all that I've done for you, at least be honest.
You be a man and you tell me--
Are you sleeping with her? No!
TEACHER: Excuse me.
This lounge is for faculty and students only.
(murmuring)
I'm not letting her go.
SETH: Anna.
Hi. Hi.
This is nice weather we're having.
Yeah. Yeah.
Did you hear the Lakers won? Did they?
They did. There's something else I wanted to talk to you about, actually.
I can't remember.
That's it. You're leaving.
Why the hell are you leaving?
I can't-- I'm late for class.
Yeah, you got at least three minutes. No, it's complicated than that.
Why don't you start with, one reason.
There's gotta be, you know, one main overriding reason.
Alright, fine, look-- I miss the seasons.
I miss fall foliage. I miss the snow.
I miss the first signs of spring.
You miss the seasons?
Yeah. And...
And?
And my little dog Swifty.
We left him with my aunt and my uncle.
And the Jimmy Stewart Museum
and peanut butter cup pies at Dingbat's.
The vinyl selection at Record Village.
And Sundays, the Super Flea flea market.
(laughs)
I guess I did get into three minutes, huh?
So that's it? There's not, like, one other reason?
Did I say peanut butter cup pies?
Yeah.
Then no.
Good. Excellent.
Um... tomorrow, we're having this thing
at my house for my grandpa.
Can't-- I'm leaving. You can't leave without saying goodbye.
I'll come say good-bye. Okay.
* Oh
* Oh...
Is there anything I can do to help? You, Theresa?
Yeah, sure-- she still needs
that job and a place to live, so...
Does she need a friend? 'Cause I could help out.
Why don't you invite her to party?
We could all hang out. Why the hell would you want that?
Look, I'm used to getting what I want,
which I know is not the most attractive quality,
but I also know that I can't compete with a girl
you've known your whole life.
Not after everything that's just come between us.
I don't think she has the clothes-- a dress for it.
But thanks.
* But I know it's too late
* I should've given you a reason to stay... *
Hey...How was the rest of your day?
I just wanted to get home and see you.
After the Heights, I knew that my dad wasn't above board,
but this is beyond anything that I could've imagined.
We're going to figure this out.
And you better believe I'll do everything I can to protect you.
No, I don't want you to.
I'm going to get outside counsel.
I do not want you involved.
When I asked for your help,
I had no idea what I was asking you for.
Oh, I know that.
But this is my mistake, not yours.
And I will not let you compromise yourself.
Not even for me.
And I called the caterers.
To make sure that, uh,
there's no cilantro for the Man of the Year.
(crickets chirping)
She's lying. I know it.
What?!
Who?
Anna.
You're thinking about Anna right now?
I just...
I just wish I could convince her not to leave 'cause of me.
You think she's leaving just 'cause of you?
Makes sense, doesn't it?
Well, yeah, but even if I thought it, I wouldn't say it.
I mean, that's a little self-absorbed, Cohen.
I just never wanted to hurt her feelings.
Maybe she just didn't like it here.
I hear there are a few people who don't.
It does rain sometimes, in January.
(gentle laughter)
I'm kind of... kind of hungry.
You want to eat?
Thanks.
Hi. Hey.
Are you good at foot massages? My feet hurts.
We... we gotta talk.
So no foot massage?
Oh. No. Listen. Listen.
I... I don't know what to do about us.
I can't get you a job. A place to live.
Shh. Shh. Shut up.
Shut the hell up. I don't need you to take care of me.
I can take care of myself. I know, I know.
I am not one of these Newport chicks
that needs a trust fund to survive.
But, the fact that you thought I needed you is really great.
Sweet.
Sexy.
What about Eddie?
I told Eddie that I can't marry him right now.
Just 'cause you're okay with it doesn't mean that he is.
I'm not okay with it, I just know it's for the best.
I'm here to be with you.
Why are we doing this?
It's not like we haven't before.
* You make me lose my buttons, oh, yeah *
* You make me spit
* I don't like my clothes anymore *
* We're spending time and money *
* Yeah, you're colder than yourself *
* Now we're moving, now we're taking control... *
(music continues)
(engine revs, tires squeal)
What's the matter?
It's not like home.
I got people that notice if I don't get back.
I had off. I thought we could to go to the beach
or to the pier? I have a thing.
A "thing"?
Yeah. Kirsten's dad is being honored by some magazine.
They're having a cocktail party at the Cohen house.
Do, uh... you want to come?
Do you want me to come?
'Cause I'm kind of getting the vibe that...
No. Yeah. No. Um, it's just, you know
what these things are like. People...
And it can be weird. The girl who serves food at the party is now a guest.
I wasn't saying that.
I feel you're not trying to invite me.
No, I do. I-I... I do.
I-I, I didn't think you'd want to go.
I know what these things are like for me.
I don't, I wanted to make sure you're not embarrassed to bring me.
I'm not.
Good.
I have nothing to wear anyway. Yeah?
But, come over after and we can both wear nothing.
(door opens and closes)
Well, if you keep looking up like that
all you're going to see is a bad shot.
Hey Hoades.
How are things at the DA's office?
Better since you left the PD's office.
My people seem to win a few more.
Well, that's why I left. I started feeling bad for you.
So why don't I think it's a wild coincidence
to see you here?
Well, you have trust issues.
That's why you've never been married.
Well, saves me a phone call.
We have a deal to offer your client.
Client? Shaughnessy.
Ah... he's not my client.
That's not what he said.
He's drunk most of the time.
Can't take anything he says very seriously.
We're taking what we think he has to say very seriously.
Just out of curiosity...
what kinda deal were you gonna offer him?
Curiosity? Yeah. Mild.
(chuckles): Okay.
If he were to cooperate,
let us know who signs his marching orders,
we'd consider pleading him down to a lesser charge.
Unless the plaintiff decides to drop the charges,
in which case Shaughnessy would have no reason to talk.
Except the plaintiff has no reason to do that. Right?
Let me tell you something, Sandy.
The Newport Group is Orange County's Enron.
You make this a little difficult for me,
and I'll come down on you as hard as I can.
Oh, wow. This must be a re-election year.
Oh, spare me.
You and I have been friends for years.
That's probably why Caleb Nichol hired you.
But it used to be Sandy Cohen's moral compass
wouldn't point him anywhere except the direction of truth.
No matter who he took down.
Ah, spoken like a man who's never been married.
I just can't hit it any better than that.
(wind whooshing)
Good to see you again.
SETH: Hey, man, where've you been?
Theresa's. Did your parents say anything?
No, I covered for you. But you shouldn't be doing this.
You're sleeping there now? That's serious.
I just fell asleep.
I heard some scary guy showed up at school.
He's called Eddie, is he? Yeah. He came down to talk.
Yeah? About how it's getting serious between you and Theresa?
Yeah. You and Anna have a talk? Don't change the subject to me.
I'm powerless not to talk about it.
I tried and she gave me a list of reasons why she's leaving.
You didn't make the cut? But she's lying.
I want her to know I'm sorry that I hurt her,
but she doesn't have to do this. She shouldn't be doing this.
Then just tell her. Just tell her, huh?
Simple, honest, direct. No wonder I never considered it.
Okay, fine. I will. I'll tell her tonight.
Have to have a little bubbly first though.
Veritas and vino, know what I mean?
Hardly ever.
(knocking)
Coming.
Hi.
Come in.
How are you? Good.
What's going on?
Well, there's this party tonight, and...
I heard.
Yeah, well, I thought maybe you'd want to go.
I can't. Um, I didn't really bring
any of my nice clothes with me.
Well, I have some options.
(instrumental music)
(cell phone rings)
Hello?
Hello? Hey, Joel.
Thanks for getting back to me. Huh?
No, actually now is a perfect time.
Come on, smile for your father, Kiki.
I'm smiling on the inside.
Veritas and vino.
Yeah. Then we have a deal.
Why spend a lot of money when you can make a lot of money.
Yeah. Caleb will be pleased.
Yes, Mr. McKuen, I'm fully aware.
We do what we must. Goodnight.
(peppy music)
Theresa coming? Nope.
Marissa? I doubt it.
(music continues)
Look. I get why you're doing what you're doing.
But she does really love you.
I know. It's just...
Yeah. The Oliver thing. I know. It was messed up.
But, hey, she dated Luke for years.
You can't always trust her judgment.
(laughs)
But she has a good heart.
(indistinct chattering)
Not your typical backyard barbecue.
Yeah, well, they never are.
You, uh... wow.
I had some help.
(laughs)
Coop.
Come on, Seth, get in the picture.
You are the future of the company.
Oh, something to look forward to.
You'll grow out of comic books at some stage,
and grow into wanting to be rich.
No, I won't.
Hey. Hi.
I just came to say goodbye. My plane is leaving soon.
You're really leaving? Yeah.
Well, you might not believe this, but I'm gonna miss you.
What's even more unbelievable is that I'm gonna miss you.
That's pretty unbelievable.
Bye, Blanche. See you, Rose.
(laughs)
Have you seen Molly Miller's boob job? They're huge.
Notice Robin's facelift? Wow.
Diane Kahn totally had chin implants.
They have chin implants?
Oh, yeah. Chins are the new nose. Haven't you heard?
Hey, Anna. Theresa.
Nice to meet you.
Came to say goodbye to Seth?
Yeah.
Could you give him this?
It's supposed to say everything that I couldn't say,
but now that I'm here I just... can't say anything at all.
Yeah, yeah. Of course.
See you, Ryan.
Thanks for teaching me how to waltz.
You have the best life. You deserve it.
(instrumental music)
Bye. Bye.
(woman laughing)
You look so hot.
Not here, Luke. Behave.
I know. It's just...
(sighs)
your ass.
Excuse me, guys. Thanks.
I saw the DA today. It didn't go what I would call, well.
I thought you were friends. You made deals all the time.
Well, it's an election year.
It seems you're not too popular with the people.
That's the best you could do? I've gotta make my toast.
I'll make this go away, but you'll have to give something up.
Joe McKuen is gonna need to be the chief lumber supplier
for the next big Newport group contract.
He won't be buying wholesale, but it will work.
I knew I could rely on you.
Not if you were Man of the Century.
What's the matter, Sandy?
You cut deals for your clients all the time.
Yeah, well, usually they're the ones that have broken the law.
Not me.
(chuckles)
Mr. Nichol, it's time for your speech.
Right this way.
SPEAKER: Ladies and gentlemen...
Hey, Jules.
James.
Forgive me. This can't possibly be happening, right?
I'm crazy, to even think it, right?
Think what? Okay, that's what I thought.
Because it would destroy Marissa.
And I think we both know she's been through enough.
Honestly, Jimmy, I don't know what you're talking about.
Now, shh, let him speak.
It really is a tremendous honor.
Few publications better represent
this great county of ours than Riviera magazine.
(applause and whistles)
(Caleb continues speaking)
I'll be right back. I'm gonna give Seth his letter.
Okay. I'll be here trying to spot chin implants.
(Caleb speaking indistinctly over P.A. system)
CALEB: Where would I be without my wonderful family?
My beautiful daughter Kirsten,
and my favorite-- well, my only-- grandson Seth.
Come join me.
What're you doing here? Can we talk for a minute?
I just want to talk...
Let's go somewhere and figure this... I'm not going anywhere.
(both talking at once)
Hey! You stay the hell away from me. Okay?
You're lucky I don't kick your ass right here.
Look, can we please... Just go. Go.
(thud)
(clattering)
Please, just... Okay?
(people gasping) (Eddie grunts)
(amplified): What the hell is going on?
You should leave now before the cops get here. You're dead!
SANDY: Alright! Right now!
Don't ever come over! You're dead, you hear me?!
Get off me, man!
(guests murmuring)
SANDY: That's gonna be quite a shiner, but they look good on you.
Yeah? Thanks.
I'm so sorry about everything.
Oh, it's okay, sweetie, it's not your fault.
Hey, I heard there was a rumble in the bedroom.
I'm gonna go break it up.
You okay? Mm.
(sighs): I can't believe Anna didn't show.
Uh, actually, uh...
You're just giving me this now?
I was a little distracted.
The ink's all smudged-- I can't even read it.
Is that a "V" or a "Q"?
Okay here, look, right there.
First sentence says "I love you."
But what's that word right there? Azerbaijan? Aztecs?
Aspirin. You think it's "aspirin"?
No. You're giving me a headache.
Coincidence? Confucius? What is this "C" word?
Confusing? It says "confusing"?
No, you're confusing me-- what do you care what it says?
Summer, Anna couldn't even say goodbye to me.
I think she's leaving 'cause of me.
I don't want it to happen. What's going on?
Last week you stood on a coffee cart declaring your love for me.
Now you're, like, "Anna's letter! I can't read it." Summer.
This isn't like that, okay?
She's just my friend, and I don't want her to leave.
Then go.
Stop her.
So, what're you gonna do?
I need to call Eddie, try and straighten everything out.
It's gonna be okay.
I'm sorry to interrupt, I need you to drive me
to the airport-- Gotta stop Anna from leaving. You can't drive yourself?
I've had, like, three glasses of champagne.
You know how it goes straight to my head. Please.
You should go. He needs you.
Thank you very much.
You're, uh, gonna be at the motel when I get back?
I don't want you to be late.
Hi, Ju-ju.
I was wondering if you're gonna ignore me all night.
You seemed busy.
Congratulations.
Thanks for coming. Can I drive you home?
I can walk down the driveway. Can I call you...
take you out on a real date.
Things have gotten a bit crazy. I know I didn't appreciate you.
I want to.
I want to make you feel appreciated.
Plan the perfect date, run it by me-- we'll see.
(peppy music)
Come on, man, her flight leaves soon.
I'm doing 75 in a 65, alright?
(mocking): I'm doing 75 in a... Everyone knows 80's the new 75.
What? Who talks like that? What is up with this AC?
My Jewfro's frizzing out. I look like Screech.
AC's fine. What is this music?
Do not insult Journey, alright?
(music playing loudly)
Hey.
How are you? Just embarrassed.
I can't believe they had this huge fight at a fancy party.
Actually, not the first time that's happened.
(chuckles softly)
Here. Um, I'm not gonna have time
to get it dry-cleaned before I go.
Before you go?
I've been fooling myself thinking this was gonna be easy.
I made a huge mess of everything, and...
I have this whole life to figure out, and so does Ryan.
So...
take care of him.
I'll see you.
I talked to my dad. He told me what you did.
Obstructed justice. Tampered with a witness.
So what happens now?
My guess is, not much.
Since it's an election year, the D.A. can't afford to lose.
And without their star witness, they don't really have a case.
If you're gonna go after the king, Caleb,
then you had better know that you can kill the king.
I told you I didn't want you to get involved.
I'll always do what's best for my family.
I'd rather go to jail than be responsible
for you being mixed up in this.
You're getting into bed with my father.
I promise you, I'd rather send you to jail
than get into bed with your father.
(upbeat music)
You do something like this...
there's no going back.
Yeah. It's kind of like prom night.
Believe me...
if anybody's gonna be putting you into handcuffs,
it's gonna be me.
(laughs)
(music continues)
* If you leave
* Don't leave now
* Please don't take my heart away *
* Promise me
* Just one more night
* Then we'll go...
Anna!
Anna, wait. Wait.
Seth... Hold on.
Seth, what are you doing here?
(panting): Okay. Maybe...
it's just the champagne talking, but I'm just gonna say it, okay?
Please do not leave because of me.
What?
You love me. I read it. And I get it.
And I'm so sorry if I did anything
to hurt your feelings... or cause this problem.
I don't want you to leave. None of us do.
Seth... I love you, as a friend.
What?
God, I love you as a friend.
It doesn't say "Azerbaijan"?
Look, I think you're an amazing guy.
A little self-absorbed maybe, but great.
But, if there's one thing our relationship taught me,
it's that... we don't have a lot of chemistry.
So you're not leaving because of me?
I'm leaving 'cause I need to leave.
But who knows, maybe one day we'll be perfect for each other.
I don't know.
I do know I have to go to Pittsburgh.
I'm moving, Seth.
I thought I could make this my home, but I can't.
Thanks for coming here...
saying goodbye.
* You've gotta say you will
* I touch you once
* I touch you twice
* I won't let go at any price
* I need you now
* Like I needed you then...
Anna, wait a second.
What am I gonna do without you? Who am I gonna play Jenga with?
You're so wise. All your sage wisdom.
What am I gonna do without that?
Confidence, Cohen.
(rattling)
Anna!
* I touch you once
* I touch you twice
* I won't let go at any price
* I need you now
* Like I needed you then
* You always said we'd meet again someday *
I'll be right back.
* If you leave
* If you leave...
SETH: What if the girl I'm supposed to be with
just went back to Pittsburgh?
What if she went back to Chino?
Why would Anna go to Chino?
I'm kidding, come on.
Nice one.
Well, at least we have each other.
Actually, I have Summer now...
but, uh, I'll put a little Seth-and-Ryan time on the books.
That's quality time.
Thanks, buddy.
I could always hang out with Luke, you know.
What do you think he's doing right now?
Um...
discovering fire? Mm.
Hunting and gathering?
Shaving his chest with a buck knife?
Ouch. You guys could do that together.
I do do that.
