[SCOFFS] "We need to talk"?

It's never good. [CHUCKLES]

[TYPING]

- [THUDS]
- Dude. What... What the f*ck, dude?

[SIGHS]

Yes! There you go.

Just concentrate. Yep,
yep. Have it ready.

- [XAVIER] Yes! That's it! You got it!
- [SHAY CHUCKLES]

Love it.

[XAVIER] And again. Ready? Hit it here.

Good. That's right. Bottom.

[MUSIC DISTORTING]

[PIANO MUSIC RESUMES]

Excuse me? Can I help you?

[MUSIC ENDS]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

How about you stop treating
us like charity cases

and pay your damn taxes?

Once again, I'm here
with Adriana Washington,

who's running for Congress
in New York's th district.

Miss Washington, everyone
is up in arms over this clip

from your commencement address
that they say is socialism.

Yeah, well, I did quote
Shel Silverstein as well,

but nobody's watching that.

[CLICKS TONGUE] Of course not.
That would make you look human.

Right. Ari, when I said those
things, I was young, I was idealistic.

Uh, I watched a lot of
West Wing as well

and my understanding of these
issues was purely theoretical.

But then you get out into the real world

and you realize that it's
all much more complicated.

And as you know, your grandmother
was a frequent guest on this show.

- Mm-hmm.
- I, like so many,

- hold her in such high regard...
- Mm-hmm.

... but we've uncovered
some troubling information

that your grandmother paid you more
than the other aides in the office.

I wanted to give you a chance
to respond to that accusation.

Well, that's patently false.

My grandmother did
everything by the book.

Well, apparently not everything.

We actually have internal budgets

showing that you were paid more than
every other staffer at your level.

He ambushed you.

I'm running in and out.

Adriana, you are the
best person for the job.

And even if the accusation is true,
your grandmother did it. Not you.

- People won't hold you responsible.
- Well, apparently they are.

- Have you looked at Twitter?
- Hey.

Oat milk latte from Joe Coffee.

Don't worry. I won't let the people
know you drink such elitist coffee.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

Natalie's waiting for me in the car.

Right. Okay.

Thank you for the coffee.

Bye.

Of course.

[LACEY] Hey.

So the principal called me.

You cut out of school today?

I guess.

You guess?

I went up to the music room,
and I was thinking about playing.

I'm sorry I didn't ask you first.

That's great.

That's great that you're
thinking about playing music.

Maybe we can see if we
can get your Uncle John

to come set up the piano.

He can't do it.

It's a piano.

I mean, it nee... it needs to be tuned

and... and the soundboard
needs to be repaired.

- The movers destroyed it.
- Okay. I know.

[STAMMERS] I'm gonna
find somebody to fix it.

May I be excused?

You know, I know it
must be very hard for you

that your uncle moved out so suddenly.

Actually, I hardly knew him.

Edward, you know that...
you know the rules.

You can't eat food up in your room.

- [EDWARD] I know your rules.
- Edward?

- [EDWARD] Whatever.
- Edward!

- What?
- You can eat wherever you want,

but do not be rude to me and
treat me like I am invisible!

I'm a person, you know?
I'm a... I'm a person.

[BREATHES SHARPLY]

Eat your sandwich wherever you want.

If this was a way of avoiding
sending out the wedding invitations,

- I approve. [CHUCKLES]
- [CHUCKLES, BREATHING HEAVILY]

What came over you?

[BREATHES HEAVILY] What do you mean?

[CHUCKLES] That was just different.

Not that I'm complaining.

[INHALES DEEPLY] Uh, I guess I'm just

getting excited about the wedding.

I love you.

I love you too.

[SIGHS]

[PANTING]

[DAPHNE] What's that? [SIGHS]

Nothing.

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

[REALTOR] The owners
did such a wonderful job,

- as you can see.
- [CLIENT GASPS] Oh, my God. It's perfect.

[CLIENT ] Oh, sweetie,
you see the chandelier?

- [REALTOR] Amazing piece, isn't it?
- [CLIENT] Does it come with the house?

- [REALTOR] I will ask the owner.
- [CLIENT ] Okay.

Hi!

- Dee Dee, I didn't realize you were home.
- [CHUCKLES]

- How are you?
- [CLIENT CHUCKLES]

- I heard you asking about the chandelier.
- [CLIENT] Yeah.

Um, it is Murano glass.

My husband had it flown in from Italy.

- It is beautiful.
- Yeah. [CHUCKLES]

- We love your home.
- Yeah.

- Thank you so much.
- So, I...

I guess you guys are
deciding to downsize?

[INHALES DEEPLY] We...
Yeah, we already downsized.

- Oh.
- My husband d*ed. [CHUCKLES]

- Oh, my God.
- Oh, I'm so sorry.

Yeah, remember that
plane crash back in March?

[CLIENT] Oh, you mean
the one with the boy?

That's the one, yeah.

Charles was in seat C.

Oh, Jesus.

I'm so sorry.

What a tragedy. Dee Dee
is such a brave woman.

- Anyway...
- Hold on. Can I?

- Oh, um, uh...
- How far along are you?

- Five months. [CHUCKLES] Yep.
- Oh, my God.

- Wait a minute. It's a girl.
- [CLIENT CHUCKLES]

- Oh, actually we don't want to know.
- No, no, no.

I can tell it's a girl. You know what?

I was pregnant with my Zoe
when we bought this house.

- Circle of life.
- [DEE DEE] Yeah.

- We should get going.
- I mean, she grew up here.

We all grew up here, you know?
And it was... We were a family.

[SIGHS] And then it all goes away.

- Anyway, enjoy. [CHUCKLES]
- [CHUCKLES]

- There's a wonderful pool in the back.
- Go see the pool. Yeah, it's so good.

- [REALTOR] Thank you, Dee Dee.
- [CLIENT] Thanks.

[SIGHS] This is becoming a habit.

Um, this was in that atlas.

I'm pretty sure it's my
grandmother's soup dumpling recipe.

Okay.

Well, that's, um...

that's what Brent brought to me

the night I kicked him out of my office.

Oh.

- Last time I ever saw him.
- Steve...

[STEVE] I feel like my entire
life was a reaction to Brent.

He was a f*cking mess.

I always had to be the good son.

And after he d*ed,

I could feel... [STAMMERS]
... my mother crumbling.

Just... f*cking crumbling.

I couldn't watch it.

So I proposed to Daphne.

I can't stop thinking about you.

Well, you need to, Steve.

I know.

You're confused and it's f*cking me up.

You can't come here anymore.

Yeah. I know.

[AMANDA] I'm not f*cking
around. I mean it.

Okay. Mmm.

I'll, uh... I'll see you at group.

Uh-huh.

I yelled at Edward.

He was short with me,
and I snapped at him.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

Everything I'm doing is wrong.
He's a piano prodigy. You know that?

He's like a concert pianist,

but he won't touch his f*cking
piano because I broke it.

I hired the wrong movers,
and I broke his piano.

I broke it. It's broken.

I can't do it.

Oh, and John left. My husband.

My husband left me. He moved out.

So there's that. [BREATHES SHAKILY]

Lacey.

Lacey.

Oh.

- Hey.
- Hey.

If you want, I can help
you. I mean, not with Edward.

I don't know anything about being
a mom, but I can fix the piano.

- Really?
- Yeah.

It's going to be
massively expensive though.

- Oh...
- [CHUCKLES] Oh, my God. I'm just kidding.

- [LAUGHS]
- I'm just kidding.

And I'll be happy to help.

- Thank you.
- Of course.

This thing has gone viral.

I mean, I'm canceled.

Dozens of people and
organizations are calling

- for me to drop out of the race.
- And?

What would you do?

[SCOFFS] If someone
questioned my love of God...

- Yeah.
- ... and my service to my community,

I would fight to the
grave to keep serving.

Okay.

Let's be honest. This
is New York politics.

This scandal is only
the tip of the iceberg.

If you win this race,

you're going to be challenged
every single day until you retire.

So, I can tell you
what I hope you decide,

I can tell you how
capable I think you are.

I can tell you what a blessing your
service would be to this community.

But I can't tell you
how much you want this,

how much you're willing to risk.

I can't tell you what's in your heart.

Only you know that.

- I'm glad you came to me.
- [ADRIANA] Yeah.

- Eddie.

- Hi.
- Um, thanks for coming.

Yeah. You said you needed to talk?

Uh, let's go inside.

- You remember how to do it?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

I'm glad I met you, Eddie.

I'm glad I met you too.

Sometimes I see him.

[MAHIRA] I see him too.

[EDWARD] You do?

Yeah.

Do you talk to him?

Yeah. A lot.

He actually kind of won't shut up.

[CHUCKLES]

[EDWARD] You?

No.

When I see him, he just
kinda looks like he's praying.

- Weird.
- [MAHIRA] Yeah.

Well...

at least we have each other.

Eddie, I can't see you anymore.

What? I... I-I won't
touch you. I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have touched your hand.

No, it's not that. That's
what I had to tell you.

You... You had me come all the way here

just to tell me you
couldn't see me anymore?

I had to say it to Jordan too.

I can't see either of you anymore.

I... I have to leave this behind now.

[BREATHES SHAKILY] Good luck, Eddie.

No more texting, okay? [EXHALES SHARPLY]

Wait. I... [BREATHES HEAVILY]

- Hey. Hey. Eddie.
- [SNIFFLING]

[JORDAN] God, I told you. [SIGHS]

"We need to talk" is never good.

[CRYING]

[BECKS] Do I have to take a bath today?

Yes, my niece.

Can't we go to the park instead?

No... [CHUCKLES] ... my niece.

- Why?
- You didn't take a bath yesterday.

- What if I take two baths tomorrow?
- [LAUGHS]

- It doesn't work that way. [LAUGHS]
- Why not?

[CELL PHONE BUZZES]

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Hey.

- [STAFF MEMBER] Hey, Adriana.
- Hi.

- What is going on in here?
- How's Eric?

How do you know I saw Eric?

Because I live on this earth.

Did you shut down all your apps?

- Actually, yes. What's going on?
- [SIGHS]

Oh, my God.

Yeah, exactly. You guys are
the king and queen of Harlem.

We are not dating.

- Who cares?
- I care. And...

- Kojo?
- No.

- He's moving back to Ghana.
- Well, that's not the point.

This is a lie, and this
is all over the Internet.

First of all, it's good press,
which we desperately need.

Second of all, Eric
is a f*cking dreamboat.

- Oh, my God.
- He polls favorably with all genders,

all ethnicities, all
political affiliations.

People will vote for you if they
think you're going home to him.

So, first you wanted me to lie

and say that I don't believe
in my graduation speech,

and now you want me to lie
about having a boyfriend?

We are not lying. We're
just not confirming.

Adriana, the election
is less than a week away.

Let people believe
what they wanna believe

- for one week.
- Oh, my God.

This is f*cked up.

Child.

[BROKER] They just redid
the kitchen. New appliances.

You really can't b*at it for the price.

Huh.

- Well, I'll let you two discuss.
- [STEVE] Right, thank you.

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

Okay, if you don't like it,
there are others we can look at.

I know it's a different scale
and a different lifestyle,

but having financial security

will lift a huge weight
off your shoulders.

I'm gonna need to talk to Zoe.

- [STAMMERS] Your daughter?
- Yeah, I haven't...

I haven't told her any of this.

Nothing about the money,
her father's "life in LA."

I mean until I tell her...

[STAMMERS] ... nothing's
ever gonna change.

No, I think that's really smart.

- It is smart. It is. It is. Thank you.
- Yeah. Mm-hmm.

It's really smart. I need
you to be there, of course.

Wait, w... what are you...
what are you talking about?

- 'Cause of the financial stuff.
- But...

I can't... I can't do that.

I mean, that's what you do.

Like, that's... You're so impressive
when you talk about that stuff.

She will listen to you.

If I try to tell her about it, she
will just bulldoze right over me.

No, this really feels like
a mother-daughter type thing.

- You know? It's...
- We're doing better, you know?

It's better between us, but
it's still like this, um...

You know, it's like
the communication system

is still very delicate.

I feel like if you're there,
we'll behave like human beings.

Okay, this doesn't
sound like a great plan.

Let's do it tonight.
Can we do it together?

I need to just do this.
Like, seven o'clock tonight.

You come hungry, I will cook for you.

- Healthy. I know how you eat healthy.
- Yeah. No, I don't... [SIGHS]

I appreciate this.

Oh, my God. I don't know what I
would do without you, honestly.

So, what do you think
about the apartment?

Oh, I would wrench my heart
from my body and bleed out

before I would live
there, but thank you.

We're gonna think on it.

[CHUCKLES]

[SHAY'S FRIEND]
Take a picture. [INDISTINCT]

Yay!

[PIANO NOTES PLAYING]

Movers really f*cked this thing up.

Who are you?

I'm Amanda.

I'm a friend of your
aunt's from grief group.

Oh.

You lost somebody too?

My fiancé, Brent. D.

I don't remember him. I'm sorry.

Oh, don't worry. I wasn't gonna ask.

[CONTINUES PLAYING NOTES]

This is a really nice piano.

My brother used to say
the only reason to play

an instrument was to get girls.

[CHUCKLES] That's as
good a reason as any.

The only girl I'm into is my...
my dead brother's girlfriend.

Well, I'm crushing on my
dead fiancé's brother, so...

- Really?
- Yeah. Don't tell anyone.

- No.
- [AMANDA CHUCKLES]

This is a nice instrument.

It was my dad's.

- Was he your teacher?
- Yeah.

When I was really little,

he would play, and I'd
put my hands on top of his.

Mostly Chopin.

- The first one was Nocturne in E minor.
- Mmm.

But when I was around
eight, I got better than him,

so my parents got me a real teacher.

But it was... it was never the same.

[INHALES SHARPLY] Well, it's
gonna be all fixed and tuned up

just in case you ever
wanna play it again.

Choices, right?

Yeah, choices.

So, what are you going to do
about your dead fiancé's brother?

Hmm. Gonna ignore it.
Move on with my life.

Right.

That's exactly what Mahira said.

Even if you don't want
to go out with him,

I mean, the dude still lost his brother.

You know? Maybe cut him some slack.

[SIGHS]

[SIGHS]

[CHUCKLES]

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

So I asked Steve to come to dinner
so that he could help explain

some of the financial situation,
because it's a little complicated.

So, you know...

- Steve?
- Oh. Okay.

[INHALES SHARPLY, SMACKS LIPS] Um.

[SMACKS LIPS] Uh, for...
Well, for starters, uh...

[SIGHS] ... your father purchased
a condo in Los Angeles which,

unfortunately, was purchased
at the height of the market.

Well, real estate is the best
investment you can make. So...

Yeah, it-it often is,

but not when you're
unemployed and in debt.

[STAMMERS] We're not in debt.
And my father was not unemployed.

Well, um, honey,

he had lost his job.

He left Leighton?

I... I believe,
technically, he was fired.

He was number two in the company, Mom.

I know.

I mean, I don't know, because I...
I don't know the details either,

uh, you know? He didn't
tell me. He didn't tell me.

He didn't tell you.
[STAMMERS] It's shocking.

[INHALES SHARPLY] But I...
I don't wanna dwell on that,

because I really... I wanna...
I wanna move forward...

- You wanna m... move forward with Steve?
- ... into the future.

Some rando from your grief
group? Is that who... Really?

- S... No offense, I guess.
- No, uh, it's okay.

- But maybe I should leave you two alone.
- No, explain the numbers.

- Explain the numbers, Steven. Thank you.
- Okay. Yeah.

So your debt is
approximately $ million.

[SIGHS] But that number
will increase exponentially

- if it isn't addressed immediately.
- What?

But there's a... there's a plan.

Explain... Explain the plan.

Y-You can get back to solvency,

but it's going to take,
uh, some sacrifices.

Sacrifi... What kind of sacrifices?

First and foremost, you'll
need to sell the house.

- What house?
- [STEVE] This house.

Our house? That's... That's
your plan? Sell our house?

- Well, it's part of the plan.
- Oh, it's part of the plan? Okay.

You'll also need to
cut back on spending.

[ZOE] Cut back how?

On expenditures of all kinds.

Clothing, food, travel...
[INHALES SHARPLY] ... education.

Mmm.

- Education?
- No. Definitely...

- That has definitely not been decided.
- Wow.

- He's talking about college?
- We're looking at financial aid. It's not...

I mean, we can see what you'd
be qualified for but honestly,

it's gonna be rather challenging.

I'm just supposed to drop out
of Barnard, like, permanently?

No, no. I'm recommending you
transfer. The CUNYs are great.

- Brooklyn College, City College, Queens.
- Oh, my God. Do you know what?

- It's all within budget.
- f*ck this.

I am going on my trip
because I have plans too.

- I have plans to travel.
- No. Nobody's going anywhere.

Nobody's going anywhere.

f*ck you, Steve!

I told you Barnard was off the table.

Honey, I don't wanna let your father's

financial mismanagement ruin your life.

No, Mom. Don't put this on him.

Dad loved us. He loved us.

And maybe... maybe he spent too much,

but all of the extravagances were on us.

Your f*cking jewelry,
your... your shopping sprees,

our lavish vacations that you arranged.

He never did a single thing for himself.

Oh. [LAUGHS]

He never did a single thing
for him... That's funny.

- [LAUGHS] Really?
- Yes, really.

He was the f*cking sane one,
and now I'm stuck with you!

- And f*cking Steve!
- Oh!

He was the sane one
and I'm f*cking crazy?

- Yes, listen to you screaming!
- You know what, honey?

You need to look at this. Look
at these piles and piles of...

This is all bills.

- Bills that we can't pay.
- [STEVE] Okay.

And things that he's... That
your father spent money on.

You are unhinged.

- He spent $ . million...
- Shoving this sh*t in my face?

- Look at it.
- That's enough.

- You need to realize what your father...
- Ladies, that's enough.

[GROANS] Oh, sh*t.

- Oh, my God.
- f*cking hell.

- f*ck!
- Steve, are you okay?

- Oh, my God.
- [DEE DEE] Oh, no.

Oh, my God. I have to go. [CRIES]

Is it all right... Is it broken?

- Oh, my f*cking God. Motherfuck...
- Zoe! Zoe. Zoe!

["NOCTURNE NO. IN E
MINOR, OP. NO. " PLAYING]

Hey. Hi.

Actually, I'm gonna use the
bathroom before we head out.

[INHALES SHARPLY] Be right back.

What are you doing out here?

I came to pick up my paddleboard.

Sorry. I should have called first.

I just, um... That was, uh...

Amanda from group. She's
here to tune the piano.

Right. Is Edward playing again?

- I don't know, John.
- Okay.

You haven't been on
that board in five years?

[INHALES SHARPLY] Yeah, I know.

I just felt like maybe it's a
good time to start trying again.

Um, I got time

and feel like it could be meditative.

- And, um, I don't think...
- I...

... that a separation is
necessarily a bad thing.

I think maybe sometimes it's like
an old car engine that breaks down

and then to fix it, you have
to tear the whole thing apart.

So you're saying our marriage
is like an old car engine?

- That's not what I meant, Lacey.
- Then what are you saying?

I don't wanna give up on us.

You left me, John.

You left me.

I know.

I haven't seen that board in
years. I think I threw it out.

Yeah, okay.

[EXHALES SHARPLY] So I'll see you, Lace.

[SNIFFLING]

You okay?

I'm not okay. I'm not okay. No.

[SIGHS]

- It's Auntie Adriana! Uncle, look!
- [JOURNALIST] Once again, we are live

in the campaign office and it
looks like the press conference

- will begin momentarily.
- It's dinnertime. We will watch TV later.

- No way. We have to watch.
- [ADRIANA] Earlier this week, we confirmed

that my grandmother overpaid
me when I worked for her.

Overpaid me with your tax dollars.

It's hard to find out that someone
you idolize did something wrong,

especially when they're
no longer with us.

I'll never know what was
going through her head.

I can't tell her that I'm mad, that
I wish she wouldn't have done it.

But what I can do is
try to make things right.

I am going to publish my tax
returns from the years spent working

in my grandmother's office, and
I'm going to donate the overage

to local charities.

It is not a perfect
solution, but it's a start.

I think we have time
for a few questions.

- [JOURNALISTS] Adriana, Adriana, Adriana.
- Ian.

How long have you and Eric
Turner been back together?

Uh, that's not what I
came to discuss today.

- But you have dated in the past, correct?
- I don't see how that is relevant.

Can we stay on topic,
please? Uh, Zina, yes?

What is your response to
people calling you and Eric

- the king and queen of New York?
- [JOURNALISTS LAUGHING]

Zina, I have respect for
you and your newspaper,

but is this seriously
what you wanna ask me?

How about my plans to
address g*n v*olence,

homelessness and climate change?

Or better yet,

I just confirmed that my grandmother
did something highly unethical.

Where are your questions
about that? I am the candidate.

I believe in free public college,

rent control, wealth
tax, health care for all,

and I want to solve
the homelessness crisis.

Whether I am elected
or not, I will not rest

until everyone sleeping on the
street has a roof over their head.

I'm not a good politician.

I'm not slick or good at
playing the game, clearly.

But I will work hard for those
who have been disenfranchised,

because those are the
people that need it the most.

And I'm sorry if that
offends a certain tax bracket.

But if you don't like what I
stand for, don't vote for me.

[CELL PHONE BUZZING]

- Hey.
- [AMANDA] Hey. How was your day?

I met Dee Dee's daughter.

[CHUCKLES] Hmm. I met Miracle Boy.

You win. You go first.

[CHUCKLES] Um. Well, he plays Chopin.

[CHUCKLES] Chopin?

So... [CHUCKLES] ... he's
a miracle and a genius?

[CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

Hi.

- Successful press conference.
- Thanks.

So you are back with the minister?

We got lunch. I wanted
his advice, that's all.

Adriana, you don't
need to spin it for me.

I'm not a reporter.

This is ridiculous.
Why do I feel guilty?

You're the one prioritizing your
business over our relationship.

You knew I was going back to
Ghana when we got involved.

Yes, but I thought it
might change things.

Your idea of a relationship
is me following you to Ghana.

- It's so backward.
- It's not just my business.

It's my family, my home.

What about my business?
My family? My home?

- [SIGHS]
- Look, I don't wanna argue.

You need to be there.

And I need to be here.

And it's sad, but that's what it is.

[SCOFFS] Okay. Okay.

My grandmother infected
me with a fierce need

to find my own purpose in
this world. Blaze my own trail.

There are sacrifices
that come with that life.

Especially for a woman.

She d*ed an -year-old single woman

with a massive chip on her shoulder,

but she put me on this path.

And I have to follow it.

I'm sorry that the picture got out.

I'm sorry that it hurt you.

Eric and I aren't
together. I'm not his queen.

But I'm not yours either.

[BREATHES DEEPLY] I understand.

[SAM'S PARTNER] Ah. Oh, my God!

We're gonna have to
call the fire department.

- [SIGHS] Sam?
- Huh?

These pancakes are so burnt.

Now, why are the first
ones always a disaster?

Just give them to me.
I love burnt pancakes.

Is everything okay?

You've been really jittery all morning.

Yeah, everything's great.

Okay. [CHUCKLES]

[CHILD] Mommy, my shoes disappeared.

[SIGHS] And so it begins.

I'll go get her.

Geenie bean, where did you leave 'em?

Hello? Hello. Hello?

[JAKE] Dee Dee, you sitting down?

That couple's making an offer.

That was fast.

[JAKE] I know you said you weren't
sure, but they really want it.

If we counter aggressively, I think
we can get them well above asking.

[LAUGHING ECHOES]

Where you going? Mmm.

Stop squeezing me, Mommy.

I will never stop
squeezing you, my Zoeskies.

- I love you so much.
- I love you, Mommy.

I got you. [LAUGHS]

["AFRAID" PLAYING]

[JAKE] Dee Dee, you there?

- Uh-huh. I'm here, yeah. [SIGHS]
- [JAKE] So?

I'll need a -day escrow.

And the chandelier's coming with me.

[SIGHS]

["AFRAID" ENDS]

Hey. That was you, wasn't it?

The putting green?

Oh. Yeah.

Well, actually, um, Trent at
Home Depot cut the PVC pipe,

but, yeah, I... I-I did the rest.

Um, I'm sorry what I
said about your dad.

I'm really sorry, okay?

Edward, I'm changing.

Things are changing.

You can't sleep over anymore.

Why? [STAMMERS] Like, uh, ever?

I can't have a boy
sleeping in my room anymore.

Why not?

Do I really have to
spell this out for you?

Well, if you like me,
what's the problem?

I'm a woman now.

What were you before?

[CHUCKLES] I got my period.

Oh, I... I don't... I don't, uh...

I don't care about
that stuff. It's fine.

That's... This is just
the way the world works.

It's not personal.

Here's all your stuff.

Are we not friends anymore?

We can hang out sometimes.

[STAMMERS] It's gonna be okay. It's...

No. No, it's... it's not gonna be okay.

It's not gonna be okay for me.

You'll make new friends.
