- Okay, well, if we continue to move forward together, it's very doable to get pregnant in a matter of months.

But if you want to have a baby right away, it might be a good idea to take a look at the options we have to offer.

- Okay, um, I'll-- I have the pamphlets.

I'll look over those.

- Yeah.

We'll discuss it and we'll get back to you.

- Sounds good.

- Okay, thank you.

- Yeah, you guys take care.

- Thank you very much.

Bye.

- I thought it was good news, right?

- She said my uterus is "rapidly deteriorating."

- She didn't say "rapidly." Whatever.

Either way, whether it's IUI or IVF, either way, if she thinks we can have a baby--

- Yeah, but I'm the one that's in there getting poked and prodded-- - Yeah, and I wish I could take some of that off your plate, but...

It's good information.

- Yeah, it is, it's just-- now I'm late for school, and-- Can we just talk about it later?

- All right.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- Bye.

- Okay.

Have a nice day.

- You too.

- Ms.

Wilson, um...

- No, listen.

Um, yesterday was not okay.

- I get it.

No, I do.

That's what I wanted to talk to you about.

- I'm gonna find you a new tutor.

- I--I don't want a new tutor-- - That is not my problem.

- Okay, look, I'm sorry.

- No, no, no, if anyone-- if anyone found out what you did yesterday, I-- My life would be ruined.

- - I haven't told anybody.

- - - Look, I'm not-- I'm not going to.

I--I get it.

Look, I'm sorry.

I-- I should not have kissed you.

All right, I understand that.

It's my fault.

And it won't happen again.

- Good.

- Okay.

Okay, good.

You'll-- you'll still tutor me, right?

- No.

No, I'm sorry, I-- No.

- Claire.

Uh-- Ms.

Wilson.

I can't afford the classes that everyone else takes.

Please?

- Okay, well-- - I'm asking you, I-- - Can you help me?

- Listen, if I agree, then you need to promise me-- - I promise.

I promise.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- So then, um...

Saturday, then.

Before homecoming.

- Thank you.

- Yo.

- What?

- What's up with you and Josh?

- Nothing, he's just-- He's just a little pissed that I'm taking his sister to homecoming.

Who are you taking?

- Don't know.

- Dude, it's Thursday.

Dance is Saturday.

Your options are slim.

- I just don't think I'm gonna go.

- What?

No, no.

- Yeah.

No, dude, come on.

We're seniors.

- No.

- No, do--do not do this to me.

We only have so many, you know, chances to f*cking, like, make mistakes and sh*t.

Plus, I got some hotel suites for the after party.

Hey, you got Meadow to take your ass back, right?

- Yeah.

I just had to ignore her for a week.

It's depressing how much that works.

- Nah, people just want what they can't have.

It's human nature.

- Why don't you just take Alison, dude?

We both thought you guys were gonna get back together eventually, so-- - No.

- No, no, no, please.

Dude, I can't take another year of Alison spewing politics.

We get it, you're a feminist.

Heads up.

Okay, I feel like we haven't helped at all.

I'm swamped.

I've done nothing but help, I cannot give any more than I'm already giving.

- Okay, well, I'm gonna I don't know, like, organize these streamers.

- That is noble.

- Yeah.

No, you're right.

I was thinking of skipping the dance.

Unless, uh, Alison here would be kind enough to come with me.

Oh, my God, Eric.

All right, um, gotta get back to this.

- Can you pass me that?

- Sure.

Wait, so-- Is that a yes?

Or...

- Yes.

- You guys, what, talking politics?

- What's up?

- What up?

Got a date for the dance now.

- You didn't.

- I totally did.

- Yes.

- Woma n at the store said it was a very fruit-forward, very drinkable wine.

- Mmm.

- Very effervescent.

- Great.

- Cheers.

- Babe.

Cheers.

You think at all about what the doctor said this morning?

- Could we just talk about this another time?

- Yeah, sure.

I thought we were gonna talk about it tonight.

- I just started at Westerbrook.

I don't really wanna be pumped full of hormones right now.

- Yeah, I get it.

Okay, I'm just gonna say this one thing.

Whenever you're ready, we'll make it work.

I just really wanna start a family with you.

Okay.

I never will.

But I will keep getting you beers.

- Oh.

- Oh, sh*t.

What's up, Eric?

- What's up, man?

- What's up, dude?

Good to see you.

- Good to see you too.

The one you were parading around with last weekend.
