05x09 - Property Not For Sale

[bunniefuu]

GRACE: Previously on The Secret
Life of the American Teenager...

Amy, Clementine is a friend.

She's just a friend,
a friend from my past.

I was fine until she
showed up and reminded me

that you're at college with
a bunch of good looking women.

I wish I was the father.

You don't want to be responsible

for my having a baby at 15.

What if I went out with Henry,

just to make my parents happy,

and then Henry and I could break up

when you and I can see
each other again. What!

He cheated. KATHLEEN: Jack?

After I talked to him
and his dad talked to him?

You need to have enough
self-respect to break up with him.

JACK: I've been trying to
get back with you for years.

And if all it takes for
you to take me seriously

is that I go back to church
and try to be a better person,

that's what I'm going to do.

Ben's still pining for you?

Yeah.

I'm trying to smooth things
over with you here, so...

So what? Nothing has changed.

I'm still standing
here getting a lecture

and I still can't go out with Dylan.

I wanted to rush off and get married

because I just thought that

I might be gay.

They're late, I can't
believe they're late.

They've never been late before.

It's not a good sign.

What do you mean?

I mean, people who are late are totally
selfish and have no regard for anyone else,

that's what I mean.

They should have more respect for you.

It wasn't easy to find a
couple that I liked, all right?

And do not get all judgmental

because I'm sure, like everyone
else, they have their flaws,

I just don't want to hear about them.

It was just an observation.

People who are late don't
respect other people.

Did you hear what I said?

I'm just looking out for you.

And her.

Well, who asked you to?

I can look out for myself.

Kathy!

Hi sweetie! We must have
missed you coming in!

And I don't know who you are, young man,

but you are absolutely right.

People who keep people waiting
have no respect for other people.

But just for the
record, we were on time.

Hi, I'm Jonathan,
this is my wife, Sonya.

So nice to meet you. Hi.

That's the idiot I told you about.

Ethan. Hi. And eavesdropping
is not cool either.

Uh, do you mind if we sit down?

Oh.

No, Kathy, please don't
get up. Stay right there.

So why can't you guys have kids?

(THUD) Ow!

And why can't you have manners?

He's a troubled youth.

I'm not that troubled, I'm
just looking out for her.

Oh.

And our infertility
would concern you how?

Maybe you're not meant to have kids.

Oh, God!

No, it's a fair question.

That's good. I'm glad
you feel that way, dear,

because about to punch this guy.

We carry the gene for Tay-Sachs,

so we decided to adopt.

Oh, I'm sorry about that.

I don't know what that
isbut it doesn't sound od.

No, it's not. You have
any more questions?

No, he doesn't.

Are you religious people?

I thought you weren't
concerned about that.

Um...

Jonathan's Jewish, I'm Catholic.

We always just check "none" on
any questions about religion,

but we are very spiritual
people. (TEXTING)

You don't have to answer his
questions, okay? He's just a kid.

He's got absolutely nothing to
do with this. Does he, Kathy?

Definitely not.

Are you financially stable?

Yep, I am. And you know what?

I'll give you a hundred
bucks to shut up.

Why? You hiding something?

(CELL PHONE BEEPS)

Hey Ricky, we've got a problem.

Why's that? Kathy wants
you to go get Ethan.

Did she specifically say
me? Because she texted you.

I'm already dressed for bed.

Yeah, but it's 7:00. So?

What's he doing that
I have to pick him up?

(CELL PHONE BEEPS) I don't know.

(CHUCKLES) But now
everything is in caps.

(READING MESSAGE)

Oh, geez. All right.

Why not? It's not like
I have anything to do.

'Cause, you know, college is
so much easier than high school,

I don't even have to study.

And I can cook and clean
up and put John to bed,

and hold down a job, no problem.

He's like your brother or something.

I took those two over there,

and he's supposed to have a ride home
with the couple adopting the baby.

I have my first English
lit paper due in two days

and I want to finish it tonight

so I can go over it
again before I turn it in.

Just go get him, okay?

Then you'll have the rest of
the night to do your paper.

Bye.

Okay, what do you mean,
"if I get transferred"?

(CHUCKLES) Like we wouldn't
take the baby with us?

You don't have to get
sarcastic, it's a valid question.

Ethan,

we're going to be good parents.

We love this baby.

Do you?

Shut up.

Okay, you know what? This is not a
healthy relationship for you. Okay?

Or for us.

You don't know anything
about our relationship.

I know you feel very protective of Kathy

and you're just asking us these
questions out of concern for her,

and out of love for her.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Ethan is my boyfriend.

Boy friend. Friend.

And you're my girlfriend.
And that's why I'm here.

Look, that's precious
cargo in that belly.

I'm just making sure it
gets to the right port.

(THUD) Ow!

That was me. (CLEARS THROAT)

That's our daughter
you're talking about.

Yeah, why don't you just quit talking?

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Mmm.

What?

♪ Falling in love is
such an easy thing to do

♪ Birds can do it We can do it

♪ Let's stop talking Let's get to it

♪ Let's fall in love

This is why Mom said you
shouldn't meet these people.

You don't know when to
keep your mouth shut.

Good thing I didn't. If these people
can't handle a few simple questions,

they shouldn't be adopting a baby.

It's none of your business.

I'm sure Kathy and her grandmother

all put a lot of thought
just the right coupleng

and then you went and screwed it all up.

I didn't screw it all up, they did.

No! You did! into a big argument.

Now the adoption could be in jeopardy.

Then maybe she'll just
She'd be a great mother.

Ethan, she doesn't want
to be a mother at 15.

She wants the than what she can provide.

What are you thinking, a dad at 15?ld be

(SCOFFS) You were.

Geez.

You are not the father. were the father,

I think Kathy baby to be adoptedhe

because the two of you
mature enough to be parents.

And I was 16 more mature than you.

Blah, blah, blah. what I'm capable of,

you don't know Kathy,
you don't know anything.

Yeah, I do. I know a lot.

And I know if I had it all to do
over again, I never would have...

Go on. You have to fix this.

You have to apologize to everyone.

And don't even offer an excuse
because there is no excuse.

This is a very serious matter,
this is the life of a child.

Exactly.

Ethan,

this is also about Kathy.

And Kathy's life. And Kathy's choices.

You have to have respect for her.

I think Mom already had
this conversation with you,

and maybe you couldn't
hear her, but listen to me.

Back the freak off.

We don't have to go all the way.

I'll settle for halfway.
to go all the way.

It's so hot, not having sex.

Yeah. Kind of.

Hey, guys! you to get home.r

Mom made some brownies.

Oh. Thank you, Tom,

you can just leave them on the table.

Yeah, thanks Tom. The table's fine.

What is wrong with you?

Why are you both out of breath?

Uh... We've been...

...running. We've been running.

Yeah, running, and now we need to rest.

Mind if I join you?

Uh, I just have a few minutes, buddy,

and I need while we're, um, resting.

Yeah, he needs to talk
to me. Private talk, so...

Goodnight. Yeah, yeah.

You cannot

spend the night.

We're not gonna do anything.

Hey, let's take another
look at that book.

No, that's enough reading for one night.

I don't know whose book that is anyway.

It's not a very nice book.

No, it isn't.

Let me stay over. Just sleep over.

Oh come on, we're going to sleep
together and not do anything?

Yeah. I don't think so. (DOOR OPENS)

TOM: Oh brother.

I'm gone two minutes. Look at you!

Get a room, will you?

Goodnight, George.

Goodnight, Kathleen. Call me.

I will. I'll call you and say goodnight.

Okay.

Mmm.

Let me know when you want more.

(LAUGHS) You are so juvenile.

Yeah, but you knew that when
you got into this relationship.

Mmm-hmm.

Well, I can't wait. You don't have to.

Get out of here. Goodnight.

I left my book.

What book is that?

Just my book.

That's your book? Fifty Spices?

Yes.

Tom, where did you get a book like that?

I fired someone for
reading that book at work.

And then you kept it?

I kept it, but I didn't read it at work.

I read it on the bus.

(SIGHS) Well, I threw it away.

No you didn't. It's right
there on the counter.

Tom, I don't think you should
be reading books like that.

Why not? I don't have a girlfriend.

A dirty book is not a
substitute for a girlfriend.

It's not dirty, it's sexy.

Uh, no, it's really not.

Tom, for people who
haven't had sex before

and are young, like yourself,

books like that create ridiculous
expectations about women.

And those kind of books, honey,
are very disrespectful to women.

Believe me, I'm getting
a new respect for women.

I had no idea women would
let you do things like that.

They won't. Oh, they will.

It's right there in that book.

What? I think we should
throw that book away.

It's not our book, it's my book.

(EXHALES) That was, uh...

That was frustrating.

But it was fun.

Yeah. Yeah, it was fun.

Wasn't it? Yeah. Yeah.

I love being back with
you, being a couple again.

Yeah, it's great. It's really great.

You're going to be late.

Oh, I know. I have to go.

(SIGHS) I wish you
could spend the night.

I don't think I could
make it through the night.

All right, well, maybe some other time.

Like maybe after a game when
you're really, really tired.

I don't know, Grace, I don't
think I'm ever gonna be too tired.

(CHUCKLES) Me neither.

Oh, right. Uh, I'm gonna go.

Goodnight. Goodnight.

(SIGHS)

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Where are you? I'm waiting for Ethan.

He's talking to Kathy's grandmother.

Kathy's not speaking to him.

I'm not surprised.

I still have to finish my paper tonight.

Or you could just get up early.

I think it's better if I stay
up all night at the library,

go to my classes then
come home and crash.

I'm going to ask Bunny if that's okay,

if I can take the afternoon off.

Bunny? Yeah.

You're going to ask
Bunny if that's okay?

Is there something wrong with that?

Yeah, you weren't asking
me if that's okay with me.

And it's not okay with me.

I don't feel comfortable with
your staying out all night.

Amy, you're going to have to trust me.

I don't have to do anything.

Anything like what?

(DISCONNECTS)

(SIGHS)

+

Just this.

Cash, huh? I don't have any change.

Can you wait while I run
up to the coffee shop?

Yeah, I guess.

Little credit problem? Hmm?

Lots of people pay with
cash if they have bad credit.

Bad credit? No. I have good credit.

I have excellent credit.

I just like to pay for things in cash

so there are no surprises
at the end of the month.

But that's none of your business.

Sorry, I was just going
to offer to help you out.

Oh. Well, I don't need your help.

I get it. Sorry.

I run my own business, I was
just thinking like an employer.

I'm always thinking that
way, about jobs and money,

who needs a job, who needs money.

I don't need a job or money.

All right, well,

if you ever do need to
earn a little extra cash

I may have something for you.

Or we could just go out and get
to know each other a little better.

You look like a smart
girl, and you're beautiful.

I don't need a job and I
don't want to go out with you.

Go away.

Hard to get, huh?

I'm coming, sorry.

Yeah, look, you left me standing
out there with some creepy guy.

What kind of guy do you find
creepy? I'm just curious.

A guy who was offering me a job

and trying to hit on
me at the same time.

What kind of job? He didn't say.

Are you okay? Did he scare you?

No.

Yeah. I got a bad feeling from him.

Is he still down there? I don't know.

Come on, I'll go with
you, I want to see him.

Call the campus police and
tell them to walk over here.

Hey, I thought you were
asked not to hang out in here.

What? What'd I do?

I'm just picking up a
book for my girlfriend.

Don't you mean some props
for your girlfriends? Get out.

Okay, what are you talking about?

Who is that? A pimp. I suspect.

Wait, a what?

A guy who sells women to guys.

He thought he was going
to sell me to guys?

I'm going to...

No, you're not going to do anything.

Just leave it to the campus cops.

That guy, other guys like him,

show up around campus
every once in a while.

They usually prey on freshmen,

guys who just want to get laid

or girls who are desperate

and can barely get by on
their loans or whatever.

Hey Bubba, we had an unwanted visitor.

What variety? Pimp.

I think he was in here
last year, I'm pretty sure.

Either of you get a picture?

No. No.

Alright, I'll take a
look at the security tape.

You know, I think I might just stick
around and have a cup of coffee.

Yeah, do that.

But we're closing in another hour
and Bubba will walk you to your car.

Thanks. And what about you?

I live on campus.

He'll walk me to my dorm
or I'll call a friend.

All right.

And good for you for paying attention
to your gut feelings about that guy.

Yeah.

I knew you'd be here.

I'm expected here.

I don't think Dylan is expecting you.

What, are you following
me now? I might be.

Well go home before I call your daddy.

Go ahead, call my dad. I don't care.

Because nothing is going to
keep me from seeing Dylan.

Except for maybe me.

Hello. What are you doing here?

Can't a guy stop by and
say hi to his girlfriend?

Uh, she's not your girlfriend.

Uh, she's not your girlfriend.

I'm nobody's girlfriend,

but my parents got delayed getting here

and it's getting late and they asked if

Henry wanted to come over and just
stay with me until they got here.

So, goodnight, Ben.

What?

Cecilia and Robert trust me.

Because unlike you, I'm trustworthy.

And I don't have any secrets
or lies that I'm keeping.

Well, of course not, everyone
knows you slept with Adrian.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah, and no one
knows that you slept with Alice

while you were leading Dylan on.

Uh, excuse me?

You slept with Alice
while we were dating?

It was an accident.

And it's very complicated.

And how the hell did you find that out?

How do you think?

Alice.

Let me just lock up and
we'll grab Bubba and go.

Hey, am I too late?

What are you doing here, Adrian?

Oh, sorry. Am I in your way?

Did you need to speak
to Clementine alone?

I just wanted to get some coffee.

I'm going to try to pull my
first all-nighter at the library.

You ready, Miss Adrian?

Yeah, I'm ready.

Is he bothering you?

No, he's not bothering me,

but come back in five
minutes, all right?

You got it.

What the hell is going on?

Oh, this creep hassled Adrian before.

What kind of creep?

Some pimp on a recruiting mission.

What? It's a college campus.

They know who their market is

and they know young girls are vulnerable

away from home for the first time

and a lot of college girls need
money, so they prey on them.

Did they arrest the guy?

He didn't really do anything.

They just chased him away and
they'll keep an eye out for him.

Well, you're not walking
back to your dorm alone.

Bubba will walk me. I can walk you.

No, you go to the library.

I don't want you to have to tell
Amy that you walked me to my dorm.

I like Amy.

I want Amy to like me.

Bubba will take me over, he
does that a lot of nights anyway.

I don't want to walk around
campus late at night by myself.

Then I'll walk you with Bubba.

Not necessary.

+

Thank you for finally
picking up the phone.

I'm picking it u up to tell
you to never call me again.

Never? Never.

But I was only looking
out for your best interest,

for the baby's best interest.

Uh, no. You were being a jerk,

and you have no regard for me or
my baby or for my baby's parents.

So do not call me again

and do not try to talk to me at school

or get to me by talking
to my grandmother.

I wouldn't have talked to your
grandmother if you had talked to me.

I don't want to talk to you!

I'm really, really angry with you and...

You know what?

I don't think it's good for the
baby for me to be angry with anyone!

(DOOR CLOSES)

(DRAWER OPENS AND CLOSES)

So I'm at the clinic,
as I told you I would be,

and Ricky calls to
tell me he took you home

but I didn't know you
left and neither did Shakur

since apparently he'd
left on an emergency call.

So you decided to go and
meet the adoptive couple

when I told you that was not allowed?

You ruined my night, Kathy's night,

the adoptive couples' night,

Kathy's grandmother's night,

Ricky's night and
possibly the baby's life.

The baby's life?

What if the couple
backs out because of you?

They're not going to back out,

but I wish they would.

Look, I don't think they're going
to make good parents. I don't.

I have a sixth sense about
these things. I'm street smart.

I know when people are bad people.

These are bad people.

He's the mayor of a small town.

A small town that was voted
the best small town in America.

Did your sixth sense tell you that?

Did your sixth sense tell you that

Jonathan has multiple advanced degrees

and has won awards for developing
environmentally safe products?

Did your sixth sense tell
you that the wife, Sonya,

operates a day care for free

for people that can't afford day care?

You don't have a sixth sense.

You don't even have any common sense.

No one told me that stuff.

And if Jonathan had allowed
me to keep asking questions,

I'm sure I would have found that out.

Sit down. (SIGHS)

I told you this is not your decision.

It is not your decision

who adopts the baby or
if the baby is adopted.

That's Kathy's decision.

You don't get toto decide that
because you're her boyfriend.

And I doubt that you are
her boyfriend anymore.

And you want to know why, Ethan?

You have no respect for her

and you have no respect for me,

because you didn't
listen to either of us.

And if you ever want to have a
decent relationship with a girl,

then you need to start

by having a decent
relationship with your mother.

For now, that would be me.

You need too quit sneaking around

and ignoring what I tell you to do.

And show some respect.

It's all about respect.

I respect you.

I'm afraid of you, anyway.

You're not that afraid of me

because you slipped out to
meet these people tonight

when I told you not to do that.

Kathy wanted me there.

Okay, I wanted to be there.

For her.

And I asked her if I could go.

Because you didn't
get your way last week.

Because you can't live with "no."

Learn to live with "no."

You're going to be hearing "no."

From me and from other
women in your life.

So now hear this.

No, you may not have your phone back.

No, you may not approach Kathy
at school or anywhere else.

No, you may not go
anywhere near that couple,

not even to apologize.

And no, you may not stay up
till all hours of the night

trying to figure out how to get
me to change my mind. Go to bed.

But... No!

What, were you jealous
that I'm dating Dylan?

Jealous that you were dating Dylan? No.

But now I'm jealous that
Henry's dating Dylan.

And the night I was with
you, I was still jealous

and angry that Henry
had slept with Adrian.

Oh, come on, you were not that angry.

What we did was not revenge sex.

It was stupid, careless
sex between friends

on a crazy night when neither of
us were thinking about anything

other than my going to jail.

You were thinking about
that. I never believed that,

that you would go to jail. And...

Sorry. I wanted to get back at Henry

and then I felt guilty about it,
really guilty, because it was wrong.

I just have to accept
that Henry doesn't love me,

and you have to accept
that Amy doesn't love you.

She does love me. She
had to marry Ricky,

just like I had to marry
Adrian. It's totally unfair.

You need to go back to Dr. Fields.

And you need a friend.

Two friends even.

We've got to apologize to
Henry, make it right somehow.

What, and just give Dylan to him?

What? She's not property.

Well, I know that,

but I still don't want him to have her.

Even though you'd give her up
in a second for Amy Juergens.

Yeah.

Ugh.

Goodnight, Jack. JACK: Goodnight, Grace.

Are you going to sleep?

I'm not ready for bed
yet, I'm wide awake.

You better get some sleep,
you have practice tomorrow.

I don't think I can sleep,
I'm still thinking about you.

Aw! That's so nice.

I'm still thinking about you, too.

I'm still thinking about
having sex with you.

Oh. Well, you should
stop thinking about that,

'cause it's just going to
make you more frustrated.

I can't. Yes, you can.

Now, I have to get some sleep.

I love you. Yeah, I love you.

Don't say it like that.

It's just... (SIGHS) Forget it.

Oh, come on, it's fun not having sex.

It's the anticipation
of it that's so exciting.

Anticipation may not be my strong suit.

Don't do anything
stupid, Jack, all right?

Just because I forgave you
for sleeping with Clementine

doesn't mean I'd forgive
you if you did it again.

I'm not going to do anything stupid.

Good. Yeah, all right. Goodnight.

Goodnight.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Hey, buddy, you're missing out.

The girls are here.
They're walking the halls.

What girls? Party girls.

There's a party? If
you've got the money.

Uh, I don't think so.

+

Yeah. I think he was.

Did you get a picture of him?

I didn't even understand
what he was doing

until Clementine explained it to me.

I just... I knew something was wrong.

Anyway, he took off and
then the campus police came

and I hung around with
Clementine for a little,

and then a campus cop
walked me to my car.

I couldn't shake the creepy feeling.

(SIGHS) Geez, Adrian.

Do you have any idea
how dangerous pimps are?

It's never just sex involved,

it's dr*gs, v*olence and
all kinds of other crimes.

And yeah, that stuff
does exist on campus.

I'm surprised you're so naive.

Hey, don't insult me!

Well, what were you
doing talking to this guy?

He was at the bookstore!

Quit trying to make this my
fault! I did nothing wrong!

No. No, you didn't.

I don't know where that
came from, I just got angry.

I just want to k*ll these guys.

The buyers or the sellers?

Because if no one was buying,
there would be nothing to sell.

Come here.

I'm staying over.

All right.

I think we should start
thinking about living together.

I can't live with you because
I'm afraid to live alone.

Can you live with me because
you love me and I love you?

Omar, (SIGHS)

look, I've got a long way to
go, I want to finish school.

You can't live with
me and finish school?

Come on, it's not something
we need to figure out tonight.

(WHIMPERING) (GEORGE CHUCKLES)

Chew your food. Then you can taste it.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

You're just now going to bed?

(SIGHS) Yeah. Did I wake you up?

No. I was watching the game.
What have you been doing?

Talking to Tom about
that book. It's his.

(SNICKERS) Tom's?

Yeah. And now he's filled with a
bunch of really, really bad ideas

about sex, and about women.

I'll straighten him out.

Well, I don't know if you're any better.

Me? I'm not into that stuff,
I've got two daughters.

You were reading the book.

I thought you just left it
on the counter as a starter.

No. I thought it was a cookbook

till you started reading it aloud.

All right, well, I'll talk to him.

The bigger problem is Tom needs friends.

You know what? He needs
someone to be his friend.

You sound like you're
feeling sorry for him.

(SIGHS) I am.

Don't feel sorry for
Tom, he's a happy guy.

He's got a lot on the
ball, he'll find someone.

Yeah, until then I just don't want him
substituting p*rn for a relationship.

You know, that was pretty
tame stuff he's reading,

I think he'll be okay.

If he starts looking
depressed or obsessing

over those kind of
books, then you worry.

And obviously, he doesn't see
anything wrong with that book

or he wouldn't have just
left it in the kitchen.

He's not hiding anything.

Well, I don't know why
people read those books.

Hey, sex sells. Each to his own.

(SIGHS) People should just
quit buying that stuff.

I don't buy that stuff.

But I have a girlfriend.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Busy.

Would you like some company?

Uh, no. Thank you.

Oh, come on, I've just
got to make 50 bucks

and then I'm done for the night.

Fifty bucks? I don't have 50 bucks.

And I'm not interested.

What, you got a girlfriend or something?

Yeah. And no offense, but
I don't want to get caught

with you in my room, you got to leave.

I'm not leaving. I need 50 bucks.

You have to leave and
I don't have 50 bucks.

If I scream, how much
can you come up with?

Don't scream, I'll see what I have.

You're not a very nice person.

Just trying to survive.

If I don't come back with my quota,

I get the crap b*at out of me.

By who? Who do you think?

My pimp? There's a quota?

Uh, yeah. It's a business.

If I don't come back with
so much cash every night,

I get the crap b*at out of
me, so hurry it up, will you?

I thought girls just did this
to make a little extra dough.

(LAUGHS) Freshman, right?

Yeah, I'm a freshman.
You work for a pimp?

All hookers work for pimps.

You think any woman sells herself?

I thought so, yeah. Well, wake up.

This is how it goes.

These guys trick girls into
going on dates with them,

then they throw you in a van at
some point, b*at the crap out of you,

do all kinds of horrible things to you.

Then they set you loose on the street,

and you don't come back with the money,

then, again, they b*at
the crap out of you.

Listen, I'm running out of time, so...

Is that what happened to you?

I wasn't exactly on a date.

I met a guy online playing a game.

We liked the same game.

I told him where I lived.

He parked around the
corner from my house,

told me to sneak out
and meet him. I did.

He took off with me.

How old are you? Twenty-one.

No, you're not. How
old do you think I am?

Sixteen maybe.

Good guess.

Come on. I got to go.

Why don't you just stay and
we'll call the police, all right?

You really are naive, aren't you?

You call the police and he'll k*ll me.

He'll get off and I'll be dead.

+

Morning.

I went to class, there was a
sign on the door, it was canceled,

I'm going to sleep until
the afternoon class.

Where have you been?

You know where I've been. I've
been in the library all night.

You sure?

You sure you weren't with Jack?

(CHUCKLES) Um, no. I was not with
Jack. Why would I be with Jack?

You know why you would be with Jack.

Amy, I'm really tired. From what?

From this conversation and from
staying up all night to write my paper.

I wrote my paper. I'm
really happy with it,

but I'm not happy coming home to this.

I didn't know there were
hookers on your campus.

Hmm? Oh, don't act like you don't know.

No, I do know. I saw
Clementine last night and...

Aha! So it wasn't a
prost*tute, you were with her!

No, I was not with her.

I got coffee before I went
to the library, I texted you.

And then what happened?

A hooker came in for coffee?

(CHUCKLES) What? No. But...

Some g had been in the bookstore
earlier and he scared Adrian.

And Clementine recognized him from
something that happened last year.

Apparently he's a pimp or something

so the campus police
walked Adrian to her car

and walked Clementine to her dorm.

You didn't put any of that in your text.

Did you also walk
Clementine to her dorm?

Yes.

Why didn't you tell me that?

Ricky, we've had sex practically
every day, isn't that enough for you?

Amy, of course it is.

There's nothing wrong
with our relationship,

other than you're a little nuts.

Well, I can't help it. You
shouldn't keep things from me.

I was going to tell you
about walking her over,

the cop was with us the whole time,

but if I had told you that last night,

you'd think I stayed
with her or something.

Did you kiss her? No.

I did not kiss her. And I
am not going to kiss her.

Where is all this coming from?

What?

(SPITS)

(GASPS)

What?

Oh. Mmm-mmm.

Oh, ease tell me Ben is not
involved in this somehow.

Let me see that.

When I'm done with it.

Jack? Jack is a Christian again?

(SCOFFS)

I don't know, but it's a good spin.

Wow. "Wow" what?

Fifteen-year-old-girl nabbed by
some guy, turned into a prost*tute.

She's been away from
her family for two years.

So she liked it? Liked it?

Are you that naive?

Well, if she didn't like it,
why didn't she just go home?

Oy vey.

Because her pimp would
b*at her up or k*ll her.

What girl would like being a hooker?

Uh... And don't say Betty.

Betty was brutalized.

I had no idea. That's
the story of your life.

You really do have no idea.

You have no idea of the indignities
and humiliation and intimidation

and disrespect that women suffer

because they're objectified by men.

How did you ever get the
attitude that it was okay to

have sex with women you
don't really care about,

because, on some level, that's like
treating a woman as if she's property.

You did not get that attitude from me.

I haven't even had breakfast.

Well, have some breakfast
and think about it.

And then go apologize to Alice

and then go apologize to Amy.

Because, somehow, you seem to think

because you were nice to
her while she was pregnant,

because you even fell in love
with her while she was pregnant,

that she belongs to
you. And she doesn't.

Okay.

Good morning, Tom.

Good morning. I guess it's official.

Jack is a Christian again.

What are you talking about?

(GROANS IN FRUSTRATION)

Jack! I didn't do anything.

Some pimp sent some prostitutes
into the athletic dorm.

When the cop came, I told
him to help this girl.

She was terrified she
was going to get k*lled.

By you? What? No.

And I swear, I didn't do anything.

I was going to give her some money

because she's required to
earn a certain amount of money

or the guy would b*at her up.

She's 15, Grace, she's a kid.

Oh.

Look, you can read the
police report in the paper.

I didn't do anything,

other than learn what idiots people
are when it comes to this stuff.

Myself included.

All right, well, don't believe me.

I've been up all night and
I got to go to practice.

(DISCONNECTS)

They make it sound like it's fun.

All right. Come on, bud.

Hey, we have to go. All right.

Well, I don't want to leave
when I know you're upset with me.

I think you're the one
who's upset with me.

Well, I was upse

I didn't want you to be gone all night.

I didn't sleep well.

And I hate myself
when I don't trust you.

You're the best husband in the world.

I'm not your husband.

Yeah. We have to do .

We are going to be
doing something about it.

Yeah, and soon. My mom
got home last night.

All right, well, let's
get the wedding going.

I think we're cracking
under the pressure.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah. Sorry.

I love you, Amy. I love you.

Bye. Iave to go.

Bye.

+

Waiting for me? Why, yes, I was.

Should we go find Henry?

I want to talk to you first.

Oh? I apologize, Alice.

I apologize for taking
advantage of you as a friend.

And as a woman. Okay.

I never should have suggested
that we do what we did.

I don't know how much
talking was involved.

Then we really should have
talked about it. I'm an ass.

You are, but you're my friend,

and I was an equal participant
for all the wrong reasons.

So, still best friends?
If you'll have me.

Well, well, well, if it's
not the two secret lovers.

Okay, we deserve that, Henry.

We really do.

And I apologize for what happened,

and I apologize for not telling you

and for making it look
as if I was avoiding you

because you slept with Adrian.

What are you up to?

He's up to, "the sooner we all
get over our mistakes, the better."

Uh-huh.

And if you want to go out with
Dylan, then all I have to say is

may the best man win.

Oh? You think Dylan
would ever go out with you

now that she knows about
you sleeping with Alice

while you were going out with her?

You told her? I wasn't going to,

I didn't on our first date.

I was going to take the high road.

And then you didn't. But then I didn't.

So game on.

Excuse me, do you not get
what objectifying women means?

Hey, how are you this morning?

Oh, I didn't have a good night.

Did you see this morning's paper? Yes.

So there are prostitutes on campus.

So what?

Ricky's not interested in
them. No, I'm sure he's not.

Are you being a smart ass?

No, no. I meant that. I'm sure that
Ricky is happy being married to you.

Why is that? Why are you so sure?

And why is it any of your business?

Okay, look. This isn't
going the way I hoped. Um...

I just wanted to say that

Amy, I'm sorry about the way I've acted.

I should have let go of the fantasy
of ever being with you years ago,

and, uh, now I really have to
because I'm wrecking my entire life.

All right. But, um...

Maybe in another life.

Ben. All right, never.

I just meant that...

I apologize for this notion I've had
that you should have belonged to me.

You belong to Ricky.

Well, I don't belong to
anyone. I'm married to Ricky.

That's what I meant.
Belong was the wrong word.

Yeah, wrong word.

So it really is over. It's
been over for quite a while.

I know. Sorry.

It's okay.

Look, let's not make
this weird or anything,

I'm still your friend,
you're still my friend.

No, let's not do that.

I can't do that.

Let's not be friends, not for a while.

Not for years even.

Okay.

Whatever you need to do,

because, Ben,

you're, like, a really nice guy

and if caring about
me wrecked your life,

then I'm really sorry.

So, Ben.

Henry and I had a very
nice time last night

and if you would like to
counter by asking me out,

you may do so. Would you like to go out?

I am free from any former entanglements

that may have kept me from giving our
relationship the attention I should have.

My parents still won't let me.

Otherwise, the answer
would have been yes.

(CHUCKLES)

Did you get kicked off the team?

No, I didn't, but any of the
guys that participated in any way

got suspended or kicked off the team.

The ones that participated on a level

that got them arrested,
got kicked off the team.

But you're not suspended or anything,
right? What are you doing here?

The word "Christian" in the headline

is causing too much
attention to me on the field,

so the coach told me to
take off and talk to you.

Oh. Well, I like that coach.

I do, too. And I like you.

Why's that?

Because you care about me,

and you care about
doing the right thing,

and people that care about
doing the right thing,

respect themselves and
respect other people.

So I want to apologize for being a jerk,

for sleeping with other women,

for trying to push you to do
something you didn't want to do,

and I'm going to be a better man.

So, you're not speaking to me?

I didn't think you were speaking to me.

I looked at you, I know
you saw me look at you.

You told me not to speak to you at
school, and I respect what you say.

Since when?

Since my mother what a jerk I am.

Yeah. You are.

But sometimes couple either.hat

I just have to suck it up,
to be good parents.lly going

They're just so perfect.

Yeah, I Googled them.

They're saints.
