03x05 - Locked Out

[bunniefuu]

Previously, on
The I Word: Generation Q...

Oh, sh*t!

You should not be
f*cking around in here.

I'll just stay
out of your way then.

You kind of have a pattern.

Is that what you think about?

- When you think about me?
- Sometimes.

Contestant three, I choose you!

You're not regular.

- Yes, I am.
- Well, so am I.

There's a 45-foot
picture of you outside.

Guess who's
coming to town tonight?

Roxy!

She is into you.

Do you want to
go home with me?

I'm halfway
out the door, baby.

I just can't stop thinking
about this person.

When are you
gonna stop punishing me, Fin?

I don't want to be
your patient.

Mom, I don't mind.

I want to go live
in the nursing home.

- I want to have a baby.
- My mom

doesn't even
know we're dating yet.

So, who's the guy?

It's just the fact
that it's really new

and nobody knows.

- Okay.
- A secret boyfriend?

- Who are you?
- I can show you who I am.

Well, it's not a bad start.

As much as I'd like to,

I can't.

- f*ck you, Shane.

Yeah, I couldn't get
middle seats,

but I did get a row
where there's no one behind us,

so we don't have to worry about

people kicking our seats.

Yeah, yeah, that sounds good.

I'll just...

I'll find you guys
when I get there.

Oh, it's just us.

Um, Taylor's got to work.

But, can you please not be late?

'Cause you know how I like
to watch the previews.

I know that.

I know, I know, I know.
I promise.

I'm gonna be there
at 7:30 sharp.

Okay. I'm gonna get two
popcorns though, 'cause I don't

like to share. But then
sometimes I'm like, should I

- get a medium...
- Okay, okay, bye.

- Oh...
- Hi. How are you?

I just started
packing these for your mom.

Okay.

Are those...?

I-I think we should
talk about this.

I don't really have anything
to say to you right now.

All right. I just, uh...

- I don't know...
- Oh. Oh, my God!

- What?
- Is that a bee?

- What?
- Oh, my God. Go!

- Okay, okay, okay.
- Get it.

Okay, I got it, I got it,
I got it, I got it.

Well, don't k*ll it.
Wh-What are you doing?

- It's right there.
- Okay, yes.

Who said anything
about k*lling it?

- Hold on.
- Okay, well, just, I don't know.

They're just endangered
or whatever.

- Okay, good.
- It's fine.

I wasn't gonna k*ll it.

Fine.

Can you open the door?
Tess, do you want me

to release it
here in the kitchen?

- Okay, no, but just...
- Open the door. Come on.

- Keep... Wait.
- What?

Keep it away from me.

Come on, come on, come on.

How do you f*cking do this?

I know, I know, it sticks.
Just open it.

Oh, g*dd*mn it.

- No, don't get it near me.
- All right.

- It's all right.
- Okay, but just wait, let me,

let me close the door first.
Let me close the door first.

Okay.

Okay. Okay, go.

All right, it's gone.

Are you all right?
We survived.

- Whew.
- Are you allergic?

I just, I've never seen you
act like this.

I don't know. Maybe.
Those plants need watering.

What?

- What?
- This is locked.

No, it's not.

It's jammed.
It's not locked.

It's locked.

Oh, my God.
No, no, no, no.

Please tell me you have
your phone on you.

Do you?

No.

Are we f*cking trapped
out here together?

- Well, it's certainly feeling that way.
- Yeah.

- You're f*cking kidding me.
- Oh, my God.

Uh-uh, no. Hello!

What, um, what is his name?

- Harvey.
- Harvey!

The-the wife, the wife...
What is the wife's name?

Ellen.

Ellen!
Why the f*ck...

They are never home!

Mack. Mack. Mack!

Mack! Mack!

There we go. Come on.

Be the hero, Mack.
Be the hero.

Honey, up here. High-five me.
Come on, baby, high five.

- Paw.
- Oh, my God.

Paw, Mack, paw.

As if the dog can open the door.

Do you have a better suggestion?

Mack, come on, big boy.

Come on. Come on.

- Come up here.
- Oh, my God, is anybody

- gonna find us out here?
- Listen to your mom.

Mack, Mack. Mack...
No, Mack.

What? What happened?

Promise you won't judge me?

- I promise. Wh...?
- Um, okay,

So I was at the Lambda Chi house
and one of the baseball guys

- was eyeing me.
- Uh-huh.

I love how the booty looks
in those pants.

I'm not sure I can help you out
with that one but...

We started making out
in his room.

He had, like, no bedsheets,
by the way.

- Ew. I...
- Angie...

there's a condom stuck inside me

and you got to help me
get it out.

Please.

- No, that is not

a hot person's name.

No. No.

They're not hot.

Okay.

That actually makes me feel
a little bit better.

Okay, good. Good.

Um, how did you meet them?

Um, I-I met them on Hinge.

Hinge?
When did you join Hinge?

After you left rehab

and decided you were gonna stay
at sober living.

Up in the Bay.

I got lonely.

Uh, how many times?

How many times, what?

How many times
did you sleep together?

Once.

So, you had a one-night stand?

Basically.

- What does that mean?
- We...

we slept together once,
but we hung out twice.

Okay, so you liked them enough
to call them again.

I guess so.

Uh...

Why did it end?

Because I was in love with you.

And I told them that,
and then that was it.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Okay.

Right answer.

Why didn't you just tell me?

should I be of Grace?

No, she's...
she's totally into it.

- Come on.
- Oh, my...

- Should we celebrate?
- Sure.

You want to find a sperm donor?

Whoa, that is way better
than what I was going to say.

What were you going to say?

- Organize the Tupperware drawer?
- Oh, yeah.

Okay, well, maybe we
could be wild and do both.

There's nothing

- Okay.

Then I'll say nothing,
and then you'll say nothing.

And sure, yeah.
That sounds like fun.

Yeah, it does.

I know you're
thinking something.

I'm thinking that I'm an idiot.

- You're not an idiot.
- Oh, yes, I am.

Because I knew about you.

Your reputation.
Everybody does.

But what-what I don't
understand is this...

Is this really what you do?
Is this really who you are?

You know who I am.

I thought I did.

I also thought
that you loved me.

I do love you.

You have a really f*cked-up
way of showing it, Shane.

You're right. I do.

I understand that.

I didn't mean to hurt you.

I didn't.

Well, you failed miserably
at that then.

I do want to know why though.

Just an old pattern.

Yes, but why?

I don't know why.

Okay.

Then how about you
take this time

while we're locked out here
on your f*cking patio

and think about it.

Okay, so what
the website said to do

is to get into the position

that you would
to put in a tampon.

Okay.

Wait, that's how
you put in a tampon?

- How do you do it?
- Like this.

Oh.

Okay, and then it said

you need to, like, put your fi...

like a hooking,

like a hook, hook,
hooking situation.

I picked the wrong day
to get my claws done.

Ow! Okay, okay.

Just calm down.

Just calm down.

Ooh, big boss.
Big boss lady.

Can I tell you something

without you being
totally judgy?

- Uh, when have I ever?
- Okay.

I just kissed
this really hot person.

What?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

I'm thinking maybe
I'll have, like a,

like a hot girl autumn
or something?

Oh, my God.

I love this for you!

They saved my life.

- Did I mention that?
- No.

I was literally

like J.Lo
in The Wedding Planner.

Oh, my God, you get to be
J.Lo in The Wedding Planner?

I f*cking love that movie.

- Me too!
- Wait,

but also problematic
culturally...

Oh, yeah,

but everything in
the 2000s kind of was.

I know.

What, what?

She was playing
an Italian person.

- J.Lo is Puerto Rican!
- Right.

And what was that, the-the guy
with the shitty accent?

Oh, my God, what was his name?

Massimo!

- Oh, my God.
- So cheesy.

Oh, God, we loved Massimo.
Oh, my God, wait.

What did J.Lo say
when Matthew McConaughey

saved her f*cking life?
It was, um...

Oh, she goes, she goes,
"You saved...

...my shoe."

Wow, we have
a ton of options here.

Well, the, uh, the rock climber
sounded promising.

Eh, he's only five-seven.

Six-plus or bust.
We are not messing around here.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

- Are you serious?
- I mean,

why not?
If you have the option to.

My family are all shorties.

We have to average it out
somehow.

Right. Okay.

Okay, I definitely think

that we should go
with the athletic body type.

This is weird.
It's weird. It's weird.

Why?

- It kind of feels like eugenics.
- What?

- No! Ew, no.
- Come on.

I'm sorry but, you know,
choosing physical traits,

- it's-it's weird, right?
- No, it's not.

Look, we have a chance
to design the perfect baby.

Yeah, it's eugenics.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Um, also, this is insane.

Why do we have
so much Tupperware?

We have a problem.

Oh. Shane!

Psst, Shane!

Oh.

That's not Shane.

It makes sense, but, like,

this is like wax and sugar.
Is this good?

Oh, yeah, that's great.

♪ Intriguing music ♪

Sex always means something.

To me it really is... just sex.

So what, are you like proposing
we do ENM or something?

- I don't know what that is.
- Ethical Non-Monogamy.

It's like multiple partners.

No, no, no, no, no.
I just...

I wanted you.

Well, it does not
feel like that.

Are you an addict?

- I don't know.
- Because when I think about

your behavior like that, like,
it makes more sense to me.

M-Maybe I am.

O-Okay.

- Okay, then...
- It's not that simple though.

It's just, it's been a lot.

Hasn't it?

Admit that. Please.

Uh, okay.

When you moved in here,
it was great.

It was. And then,
and then your mom comes.

Oh, my God, that is not fair.

You said that you wanted her
to move in.

Wait, wait.
No, no, no, no, no.

Let me finish.

I'm glad she came here.

And I'm so happy
we could help her.

I don't regret that.

We also have Dana's.

And then you want a second bar.

And somewhere
within all of that...

...you changed.

And you stopped seeing me.

I'm not trying to blame you.

I'm just trying to explain this.

There was a disconnect.

Yes. Okay, yes.

Like, it's...
It's been hard.

But you know

what I did when I started
feeling like it was too much?

I wrote in my f*cking journal,

Shane.

I didn't go out
and f*ck the first person

that showed me
some kind of attention.

I know. You're right.

Yeah, no sh*t, I'm right.

Anyway, how's work?

- It's good.
- Yeah?

Yeah, um,
I'm actually throwing

Fletcher's album release party
in a couple of weeks.

Fletcher?

- Mm-hmm.
- Can I come?

- Yeah, everyone can come.
- Wow.

Yeah, I feel like things
are finally turning around.

Yeah.

Can you, can you play this one?

- I'll give you the signal.
- All right.

Oh, my God. That's them.

Dang, this mic is high.

Let me just...

There we go.

- Hi.
- Oh, my God.

I know, right?

Hey, everybody. I'm Dre.

That's... that's them.

That's, that's,

I slept with when...

No.

- Yes.

No.

- I'm not against it.

I know that you have been
through so much.

I try to remind myself of that

Yes, that you cheated.

All of us.

But we all don't hurt people

And that's nobody else's fault.

- I'm not saying it is.
- Okay, so you need to

take responsibility for that.

I am taking
responsibility for it.

- Have I been denying this?
- No.

You're taking responsibility
for it now because you feel bad.

So what happens when
that feeling disappears,

and you're not feeling
so bad about it?

Are you still gonna want to take
responsibility for it?

Because that's
what has to happen

in order for you to change.

- No shame.
- No, but, yeah.

- OMG, are you gonna do it?

- I want to but...
- But what?

Ask me anything.
I'm an open book.

I just don't even know
like how it starts.

Okay.

My experience is, like,

it will be super awkward
and quiet,

and then I'll lean in
and kiss whoever it is,

and then it sort of
just goes from there.

- Cool.
- With consent, of course.

Of course,
yeah, we love consent.

We sure do.
Then clothes come off.

You touch him.
He touches you.

Usually, they're,
like, a little off.

Off, how?

Hmm, they miss. They think

they're on your clit

It's hard to tell.

I can't...

I can't really tell from here.
Can you?

That's the most exciting thing

- anyone's ever done for me.
- Ooh.

Well, let's hope
they're not full-blood.

What the actual f*ck, Taylor?

- You're on a date?
- Alice?

What are you doing here?

Are you crazy?

Hey, hey.

You lied to me.

Sit down, lady.

Okay, this is just gonna
take a second, sir,

so just pipe down.

You told me you were working
and you're clearly on a date.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have lied to you
about having to work.

Yeah, no sh*t.

I thought we were,
like, a thing.

We are a thing.

And we can be a thing, too.
We just don't know yet,

because we're dating.

Yeah, we're dating.

Yes, this is dating.
We date each other

and we date other people.

Uh, since when?

Since the beginning of time,
as far as I know.

Well, I wish somebody
had told me.

Namely you.

I thought you knew.

And I definitely thought

you were dating
other people, too.

- Why would you think that?
- I don't know.

You're famous.

Who is she?

- Okay...
- Is it Ellen?

No. Okay, that is such
a bullshit excuse.

- I should just go.
- No.

- What?
- No, you should stay.

Alice...

It's not an excuse. Okay?
It's just a fact.

I like you.

But I also like my regular life.

And those two things
don't naturally go together

because we just live
in different worlds.

You with the reg...
Oh, my God, I'm normal.

I have normal friends.

No. You're not.

And you haven't been for so long
you can't even see it.

No. No, you know what?

I think you're looking for
things that are wrong

because this is right.

Did you ever think of that?
Did that ever occur to you?

That maybe this is about you
and not about me?

I just need to go slow.

You know, just turn
the heat down a little.

And I guess I just didn't know
how to tell you that.

Well, this way sucked.

- For all of us.
- Sit down.

- Oh, shut it, mister.
- Yeah.

You never had a little
dating drama in your life?

No.

I'm sorry... I lied to you.
I really am.

Yeah, I am, too.

You like her more than me?

Alice.

You didn't have to answer that.

Well, enjoy your movie.

By the way, he dies in the end!

Come on, lady!

Okay, okay, let's just think
of another way to pick a donor.

Right? Let's, uh,
not focus on perfection.

What are we looking for?

I guess you.

You have managed to both
flatter me and insult me?

Only you can really do that.

Oh, thanks.

Okay, so, who are you?

Uh...

Okay, me, uh...

Who am I? Um...

I am Chinese American.

- That feels important.
- Of course.

Uh, I don't know, I'm anxious.

You want our kid to be anxious?

No, no, of course not.
I'm just describing myself.

You like books.

That's true. I do.

But, I mean,
is there a section for that?

I see, uh,

favorites animal,
favorite person,

education, food. I mean...

This is really making me sad.

Yeah.

Yeah, me too.

You know, this was
supposed to be really fun,

and it's just
depressing, really.

I just wish we could
make a baby

that's part of you
and part of me and...

Yeah, me too.

Cis-heads can just get drunk
and do this on accident,

but we have
to self-reflect and...

Oh, cis-heads definitely need

to be doing some
self-reflecting, too.

- And there should be a test.
- Right?

There's a test for everything,
except to be a parent.

- Any idiot could do it.
- Oh, and they do.

All the time.

Okay, maybe we just have to

figure out
what we have in common.

So the baby, like,
fits in our family, you know?

Yeah.

- Yeah, I love that idea.
- Okay.

Okay. All right.

Well, let's see if
sh*t-talking is a category.

Oh, yeah, yeah, it's right here.

- Under religion.
- Wow.

I thought you were it for me.

Yeah, I never...

let myself think about
the future.

'Cause my mom,

she always made
all of these big promises,

every time she got a new gig,
or met a new guy.

And none of them
ever panned out.

So...

I just stopped
thinking long-term.

Yep.

And I've tried,

but I've never been able
to think long-term.

I let myself with you though.

I saw my life with you.

Us getting old together.

I've never been able
to do that with anyone.

But it can't happen.

Unless you really

try to figure out why it is
you do what you do.

Because if you don't,
we're just gonna end up

right back here
and I can't do this again.

It's just too painful.
Do you understand that?

I'm not happy, Tess.
