08x23 - Little White Lies: Part 2

[bunniefuu]

You're sick?

But you were fine yesterday.

Maria's going to be
really disappointed.

She was looking forward
to seeing you at church.

She likes you.

Don't you think Maria wanting

to see me today is strange?

Maria doesn't
have a lot of friends.

She just got here.

She likes you and she likes me.

What's the problem?

I guess... I just
don't like her.

You don't like her? Why?

Can't we just leave
it at I don't like her?

You can leave it
however you want,

and you can also leave me alone.

What?

I think you're being
rude and insensitive,

and I'm hanging up.

MARTIN: Come in.

Just go away.

Come on, we're best friends.

I don't want to
lose you over this.

"Over this"? This isn't

just a this. This is someone
I care for, someone I love.

This is Cecilia,

and now, thanks to you,
I don't have this anymore.

Cecilia didn't break up with you
because of me and what I said.

Excuse me?

Cecilia has been
talking to Simon.

What?

I heard Cecilia talked to Simon.

When? Where? How?

And, and you know
about this because...?

I just know,

and if you don't believe
me, check it out yourself.

Hello.

I don't wanna talk about it.

Good morning, Maria.

Are you okay?

Please, I don't want to talk.

You were out all
night with Heather.

I don't wanna talk about it.

You should call Sarah.

She called last
night looking for you.

And you told her who I was with.

No, but Peter did.

(exasperated sigh)

He-he didn't mean
to, it just... slipped out.

He didn't know not to tell
your wife you had a date.

What's going on?

Oh... plenty,

but no one's talking.

Oh.

Is this smile for
me or for Simon?

Simon's coming home.

Only for the summer.

A mom can dream, can't she?

(Eric chuckles)

(door opens)

Oh, just call her.

You know you want to.

It's polite to knock.

Yeah, I know about knocking,

but sometimes if you
sneak up on people,

you get a lot more information.

So, you gonna call her?

Well, you better call
Kendal and ask her out

before I grow up
and b*at you to it.

One, I don't like

Kendal in that way,

and, two, even if I did,
she has a boyfriend.

(sniffs)

Do you smell that?

Gas?

No... chicken.

Ha-ha.

I'm going to church
with my family.

Fine. I'll go by myself.

And I think I'm gonna spend
the afternoon with my family.

Fine.

You know...

you're not allowed
to use "fine."

"Fine" is my word, not yours.

I do the “fine” thing,
not you. Got it?

Fine.

(snorts)

(sighs)

I can't believe this
is really happening.

I'm gonna be a father.

I mean, by the end of
today, I'm gonna a daddy.

You wife is doing great.

Uh, I'm not.

I mean, I need people.

I need my family here.

Her family here.

I mean, our families
should be here, right?

But no, Mary doesn't
want our families here.

It's okay.

You're okay.

You're all going to be okay.

(barks)

(ringing)

(ringing)

Still no answer?

No. Not at home.

Not on Carlos's cell phone,
not, not on Mary's cell phone.

I, I just

don't understand
where they could be.

Well, I'm sure Mary's fine.

I'm sure there's some
logical explanation

why we can't reach them.

Keep calling.

(door opens)

You missed a good sermon.

I'm sick.

I am.

(coughs)

Okay, so today was your last

sick-but-you-and-I-
both-know-you're- not- sick day.

So, I suggest that if
you can't talk to me

about whatever's bothering you,

you find somebody
you can talk to.

Uh...

You're here.

We need to talk.

I can't work with Jeffrey

if you have something
else in mind.

I see the way you look at me,

and you practically asked
me out on a date last night.

Well, you must
think a lot of yourself.

I do, but we're not
talking about me.

We're talking about you.

Apparently a very lonely you,

a you who is looking
for a girlfriend,

a relationship.

I can't be that person.

I don't like you like that.

So we don't have a
potential problem here?

No...

I don't like you.

Well, I don't like you either.

Okay.

So I guess I'll see you
and Jeffrey tomorrow.

(exhales loudly)

I got your message. What's up?

I don't know what
to do with Lucy.

She's acting nuts, but
more nuts than usual,

and it's not just that
she's been pushing me

to get promoted at work.

She's been acting
strange all week.

You called me out
here to talk about Lucy?

You aren't going to
ask what I've been doing

for the past several months,
what I was doing yesterday?

Hey, your life is your life.

If you want to tell me
something, you will.

If not, it's not my business.

It kind of is your business

because what I'm
doing affects both of us.

You're my partner,
but not for much longer.

I heard about you
going for detective.

I think it's great.

It's Lucy who has
a problem with it.

What?!

Lucy's upset that you might be
getting promoted ahead of me.

I know it's silly, but
she just won't let it go.

Kevin, I'm not
getting a promotion.

I don't want to be detective.

I don't even want to be a cop.

I think you better sit down.

I just got your message.
Mary's in labor?

Look, you need to go.

Mary doesn't want
to see any family.

She thinks that if she
has one family member,

then she's got to have
all family members...

Hers, mine... And
that's too many.

I need to go check on her.

Well, I can't just leave.

Well, you have to.

Will you do me a favor, though?

Name it. Can you call

Mary's parents and let
them know she's in labor?

They don't know?

I told you, she doesn't
want to see anyone.

So...?

So, Mary should never know
that we had this conversation.

But I can't call there.

I could get Matt, and I
can't talk to him right now.

Right.

Mary is having a baby.

So, I'll just put my

petty feelings aside
and do what I need to do,

even if that's talking
to my husband,

who I stupidly pushed
into seeing his old girlfriend.

Oh...

Your wife is asking for you.

Are you Sarah?

Matt's wife?

She wants you to go home

and don't call anyone,
and I think she means it.

(ringing)

(phone rings)

Hello?

Hi.

(dial tone)

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Cecilia?

Simon?

Hi.

How's the road?

It's good.

It's good. I'm just
taking a break.

I'm getting some gas.

I... I thought I'd call you.

Why?

Something's wrong.

It's me, isn't it?

It's my coming home.

You're, you're uncomfortable

with Martin and me
under the same roof,

right?

Everything's fine.

I'm fine.

You'll see when you get here,

but, really, I have to go.

Martin's waiting for me.

Okay, but you don't wanna...

(disconnect)

(dial tone)

Hello?

Hello!

Ce...?

Is everything okay?

No.

Cecilia won't talk to me.

I'll talk to you.

See, that's nice, but I-I
don't wanna talk to you.

I wanna talk to her.

Is Simon talking to Cecilia?

What?

Do you know if Simon's
been talking to Cecilia?

I don't know.

(door opens)

So...

I'm curious.

I bet you are.

The reason...

you weren't in church today...

it, it wasn't because
you couldn't face God

after spending the night
with your ex-girlfriend,

was it?

I can face God.

Can you face Sarah?

You know, I-I'd
love to stand here

and have you cross-examine
me, but I have a...

Y-You have a date?

What again? With Heather?

You can't have a
date. You're married.

Dad, just stay out of this.

I can't. I can't just stand by

and watch you throw
your marriage away.

Yeah, you can.

It's my life, my
marriage, my business.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I don't want to keep
Heather waiting.

What are you doing?

I think

I should go home.

To Mexico.

Yes.

No.

Peter doesn't like me,

and I don't want
to cause problems.

I really like you.

I don't care about Peter.

If he has problems,
they're his problems.

I should just go home.

No one likes me in America.

I'll talk to Miss
Simpson tomorrow.

(phone ringing)

Hello.

Hello?

Hello.

I need to speak to your dad.

Mary is...

Well, I need to
speak to your dad.

Uh, w-what's wrong with Mary?

Is she in labor?

Is there a problem? Talk to me.

I'm not authorized
to talk to you,

nor do I wish to talk to you.

Just put your
father on the phone.

We can fight later.

Look... I mean, if you're upset

about last night...

Or we can fight now.

So you were upset
about last night.

Upset?

Why would I be upset

that my husband had a
date with an ex-girlfriend?

Why would I find that upsetting?

I'm happy for you.

I mean, you waited
almost a whole day

before you started
cheating on me.

W... I-I'm not cheating.

Uh-huh,

So you two are what...
Bowling partners?

I thought that when
we got back together

we were really going to
try salvage our marriage.

Is this your idea of working
through our problems?

Dating other woman?

I can't talk to you
when you're like this.

You can't talk to me period,

which is why you ran
back home this summer.

Now, put your father
on the phone. Oh...

and make sure to tell Heather...

your wife says hi.

It's for you.

Reverend Camden?

Sarah, hi...

I need to talk to you.

About Matt?

No.

About Mary.

I'm not supposed to
know anything, but...

What make you think
Maria is in love with you?

She said that she
wanted me to help her

with her math homework.

She told Ruthie she likes me.

Well, if Maria is
in love with you,

why would she
tell your girlfriend,

and why would your girlfriend

be okay with
hanging out with her?

If she is in love with you,

I think that's something
Ruthie would notice.

I know she likes me,
and if she goes after me,

it'll just cause problems.

Goes after you?

What is she, a tiger shark?

She's a girl.

She gonna att*ck
you after gym class?

I'd say, Peter, you
sound a little nuts.

Okay, well, if you
think what you think,

why don't you just

talk to Maria and tell her
you're just not interested?

I heard she doesn't
take no for an answer.

You heard?

In gym class.

These guys were
talking about her.

About Maria?

What'd they say?

(clearing throat)

I'm sorry.

I tried,

but Cecilia won't talk to you.

Is she talking to Simon?

Well, is she?

Son, I don't know.

Look, uh, I was
just going to have

a sandwich. Have you
had lunch? Are you hungry?

I don't know why I came.

Because you still like me?

I don't think what I
feel for you is "like."

But you do feel something?

I'm here, aren't I?

Please, just sit

and let me beg and
grovel for your forgiveness.

I came prepared to do both.

So.

What do you want first,
begging or groveling?

What's the difference?

Groveling involves
a lot of kneeling.

What are you doing?

Shut up. Okay?

If you talk, I might
change my mind.

Change your mind.

But you have a boyfriend.

I know.

And you don't like me.

I know.

But, uh... Just shut up.

Okay.

What do you want?

I could go for a burger.

Oh, you mean... what do I
want out of this, you and me.

Uh... First,

is there a you and me?

Okay, well, let's just assume

that there's a chance
for you and me.

What do you want?

What do I want?

I want to start over.

I want to have not
married the man I did.

I want to have not wasted

the last three years of my life

in a loveless marriage,

and the last year of my life

in a messy and ugly divorce.

I guess I want a do-over.

So do I have a role in
your done-over new life?

Matt...

you're married.

I'm gonna ask
Sarah for a divorce.

So, now do you
see me in your life?

(door closes)

Lucy, I talked to Kevin.

I'm not trying to get
promoted at work.

I'm joining the Army.

I want to go Iraq.

(exhausted sigh)

What's going on?

Sarah called...

for Carlos.

And?

You guys should go get Happy,

and I'll help you
take her for a walk.

Okay?

Mary's in the hospital.

What?

She's gone into labor,

but she doesn't
want any of us there.

Any of us?

You mean you and me?

Yeah.

Ruthie isn't here.

I came to talk to you,

and Ruthie knows I'm here.

I'm sorry for the way
I've been treating you.

It's okay.

All the boys at school
treat me the same way.

Yeah, some of the guys at school

were talking about you

in the locker room.

In the locker room,

in the halls, in the cafeteria,

in the classroom,
the playground...

So who started it?

Jack Reed.

Yeah, he's got a
pretty big mouth.

He asked me out.

I said no.

I told him, I have a
boyfriend back in Mexico.

Well, the only thing bigger
than Jack's mouth is his ego.

So after I told Jack no,

I heard some other boys talking

about how Jack said I kissed him

and that I kissed
all these other boys,

and that I asked Jack out

but he said no, because I was,

well, I don't want to
repeat what he said I was.

None of what he said

was true... hurtful,
but not true.

If you had just
gotten to know me,

you would have seen that.

I didn't want

to date you, Peter.

I just wanted to be your friend.

Look, I was an idiot,

or a guy, which, in this
case, is the same thing.

So maybe we

could start over.

Could you give me
another chance?

Of course, to do that,

you'd have to stay in
Glenoak, which I hope you'll do.

RUTHIE: So,

are you staying?

So, um...

are you coming out
of your room today?

I'm really upset with Martin.

The sex thing?

Martin and I had
lunch. We talked.

About me?

You should talk to him.

Not after what he did.

And what exactly did he do?

Well, he told...

He told Mac the truth, right?

Yes, but he was talking

about us, about
our relationship.

But he was only

doing that to set
the record straight,

to protect your reputation,

which, you have to
admit was kinda brave.

I mean, the guys on the team,

having them think that you
and he had done something

made him seem
pretty cool, right?

So it seems to
me, that most guys

would just keep their mouth shut

and let everyone
think they were cool.

You know that
Martin is only guilty

of having a friend who
isn't quite as mature as he is,

and I think that you'd
rather be angry with Martin

than face what's
really upsetting you.

This is about Simon, isn't it?

I know Simon's coming
home for the summer.

What I don't know is
how you feel about it.

Wanna talk?

So, without the draft,

the armed services need
more people to volunteer.

They need m*llitary
police most of all.

Now that the w*r's over,

they need MPs to
back up the Army

and to help the Iraqi
people rebuild their country.

Iraq, Iraq?

The Iraq next to Iran,
over in the Middle East,

that Iraq?

So you just went out
and joined the Army?

I took the test yesterday.

If all goes well, I
should be leaving

for basic training next week.

You do know that President Bush

is commander-in-chief
of the armed forces.

That includes the Army.

So?

I thought you hated
President Bush.

I never hated him.

I just didn't agree with
his politics or the w*r.

Look, this isn't about politics.

This is about me,

and doing something
important with my life,

and I hope I have your support.

Hey.

Hi.

So, is Cecilia coming
over for dinner tonight?

Cecilia who?

She doesn't want to talk to me.

Or maybe

I don't want to talk to her.

Yeah, I don't think
I want to talk to her.

See how see likes
being shut out.

So, if she calls?

Okay, I want to talk to her.

Love stinks.

Is, uh,

Simon coming to dinner?

No, there's a traffic
jam on the freeway.

Hey, Martin, are you okay?

Do I look okay?

(dialing)

(line ringing)

Hi, you've reached Sarah...

And Matt.

We're not here right now...

So leave a message at the beep.

(both laughing)

(beep)

Mrs. Cain.

Uh, hi, it's Matt Camden.

I was wondering if you could
give Heather a message for me.

Hello?

You were supposed

to pick me up an hour ago.

The movies,

remember?

Sean.

Kendal.

Sean.

Reverend Hampton.

Wait.

You and him,

together?

But-but you said you hated him.

That he was
pretentious and annoying

and weird.

Well, I guess she
changed her mind.

You really want to be with him?

Yeah, I think I do.

Really?

Yeah.

I'm still in the room.

(clears throat)

This is so much
better than a movie.

What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

I need to talk to someone.

I'm really upset.

It's about Martin,

but not about the sex thing.

How'd you know where to find me?

I called your house
and your father told me

you were at the Promenade.

I can explain.

And I can

apologize, if you'll let me.

Let him.

He is sorry, he really is.

I know.

You do?

You forgive me?

Yeah.

Thanks.

Now, let's talk about what's
going on with you and Simon?

I feel badly for leaving.

Oh, Simon will understand,

and we'll see him
in a couple of days.

Yeah. He'll be home all summer.

Mary's gonna be fine.

Promise me she's
going to be fine

and the baby's going to be fine.

I-I know she'll be fine.

They'll both be fine.

Carlos, too.

Talk to God.

Have you asked Him
for anything recently?

Ask Him to watch
over Mary and the baby.

I already have.

Did you ask Him to
kind of slow things down

until we get there?

No, but I asked Him

not to let Mary react
badly when we do.

I just heard Mary's
having her baby.

Yeah.

Reverend and Mrs. Camden
are flying out to be with her.

Great.

Yeah.

Mac and Pam are back together.

Pam forgave him

for his momentary
slip of ethics.

And what about me?

Do you forgive me?

No.

I...

can't forgive you

because you didn't
really do anything.

I love you.

I know.

I think that's what
we need to talk about.

I took an opportunity

to be upset with you

because, well,

because it was easier

than facing some pretty
hard truths about us.

I want some space.

No, that's a lie.

I want to break up.

I knew it.

You knew it?

I know you talked to Simon.

How did you know?

Oh, I told Pam.

And Pam told Mac
and Mac told me.

Do you think it's
too much to ask

for Mac to just stay out
of our personal lives?

What lives?

You're breaking up with me.

Mac was just
trying to protect me.

He was just trying
to be a friend.

I'm not breaking up with you

because Simon's coming home. So,

you haven't talked to him?

You're not looking forward to
him moving back to Glenoak?

He called me last night.

He's not moving back,

He's just coming
back for the summer.

Just tell me the truth.

Tell me why you
don't want to date me.

I can handle it.

You love me.

You're breaking up with
me because I love you?

I... don't love you.

I mean,

I care about you,

but I don't love you.

I thought

I did, but I don't

and that became very clear to me

when all this talk
of sex started.

Wait.

I need to tell you something
and you need to hear this.

I don't want to
have sex with you.

Let me finish.

I made a promise
to myself a while ago

that I'm not gonna have
sex until I'm married.

So, if you think I'm going

to pressure you into something

or that all this talk
about us doing things

is gonna make me pressure
you into something, I won't.

I respect you and what we have.

I'm happy with things
just the way they are.

I'm two years older than you,

and I'm going away
to college next year.

So?

Come on, it's not
fair to either one of us

to take on a long-distance
relationship at our age.

You aren't

by any chance thinking of going

to the same school as Simon?

Even if I do,

I think it's best
for us to break up.

Sorry.

Thank you for
having me to dinner.

Thanks for calling
me about Peter.

Thanks for setting me straight.

Thanks for making

me finally feel
welcome in America.

So have you heard?

Did Mary have the baby?

Is she naming if after me?

Well,

Mom and Dad
haven't gotten there,

so I hope she hasn't
had the baby yet.

And I'm sorry,

but I don't think they'll be
naming him or her Vic, Jr.

Hmm.

So, Maria, tell me

how this foreign
exchange program works.

I will stay with the Camdens

for the remainder
of the school year,

and next year, Ruthie

will have the option of
going to school in Mexico.

For how long?

As long as she wishes,

I think.

I had a friend

who went to school in
France for an entire year.

Every school is different.

Every program is different.

Do you want to go
away for an entire year?

I don't know. Maybe.

Don't worry,

I haven't decided
about next year yet.

Can you come back here?

If my parents and
the Camdens agreed,

I could come back.

I would like to come back.

I like America now.

I hope you do come back.

So do I. So do I.

Mi tambien.

Sí.

Muy bueno, Sam and David.

De nada.

Hello, everybody.

Hey, Mom.

Paris.

Ruthie invited me.

Maria,

let's get the water glasses.

Los vasos de agua.

Sí.

So,

I take it that everything
that was wrong is now right?

Yeah, thanks to Dad.

Well, thank you, Dad.

What?

I took a job in Glenoak

and I found an apartment.

I'm moving in two weeks.

What do you think?

I think

that means she's okay
with your moving in town.

(laughs)

Okay,

who wants to help
me get something...

in the kitchen?

Yeah.

Ruthie let me in.

Cecilia broke up with me.

Really

broke up with me.

Man, I am sorrier
than you'll ever know.

I'm not.

I mean,

I loved her and she
obviously didn't really love me,

so

As my dad would say,
I'm better off without her.

So was it me or Simon?

It's not because of you.

Simon?

She says no, but I think yes.

So, uh, are we okay?

I'm . Trust me,
I will love again.

Do you want to hit the
batting cages after dinner?

You want me to stay for dinner?

Sure, why not?

Thanks for meeting me.

My mother said it was important.

Um... Mary's in labor.

Then what are you doing here?

She doesn't want
any of us there.

Why?

She's Mary.

So you're not going?

But I have a ticket
on the redeye,

and not just

to see my niece or nephew.

I need to talk to my wife.

I love her and I
don't want a divorce.

I don't want you to
get a divorce either.

I know how painful that is.

I'm sorry if I mislead you.

The last year of my
life has been so difficult,

that I have felt so
unloved for so long,

that when I saw you, it was
like taking a vacation from reality.

But it's time for me to
make a new life for myself

and for you to go
home to your wife.

I do love you.

And I love you.

If you ever need anything...

I know.

Dinner's almost ready.

Anything from Mary and Carlos?

Nope.

And I can't call
because they don't know

mom and dad are on their way.

Roxanne told me you
invited her for dinner tonight.

So you're okay with
her going off to Iraq?

No, but she's going.

So is there

something else
that's bothering you?

I want us to have a baby.

Okay, we can have
a baby someday.

Whenever we're ready
and it's the right time.

I wanna get pregnant now.

Maybe that's because
Mary's in labor.

Or maybe it's not.

I love you and I'm
going to finish school.

I'm going to finish
next December

if I go to summer school.
And I wanna have a baby.

Well...

Well, let's just try,
okay? I'm ready.

We don't have a house. We
don't have any place to put a baby.

We can get a house. We
can always get a house.

And I can start my career
and then take a break,

have babies, get
'em to a certain age

and then go back to my
career, but I don't want to that.

So now, it's babies.

Babies. I want a
family, a big family.

And I don't think it
would keep me from doing

what I want to do.

I'll find a way to
work with our church

or another church.

But I'm feeling an overwhelming
desire to have a baby

with you Kevin Kinkirk.

Then let's go for it.

But we've made this decision

before and then we backed off.

If we're going to do
this, let's commit to it

for absolute certain,
no turning back.

No turning back.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

You're not telling me this

because you're already
pregnant are you?

I am.

You are?

We are. We're
going to have a baby.

(body thuds)

We can't fix our
marriage long distance.

I know, that's, that's why I was
coming home tonight to stay.

I can get another job, you
want to retake that class

and the only place you
can do that is Columbia.

I love you.

I assumed that's why
you flew all the way here.

I'm, I'm sorry.

Did you do something
with Heather

that you need to be sorry about?

No, but I'm sorry anyway.

Me, too.

I feel like pizza.

Me, too. What
about you, Chandler?

Hey, I love pizza.

I'm sorry about the shiner.

Hey, if I were Sean, I would
have done the same thing.

Besides, it's a
small price to pay.

Price to pay for what?

For you.

(chuckling)

I should probably tell you.

I just found out I
got into Wharton.

They're not opening a
Wharton Business School

in Glenoak, by any chance?

No, it's still in Pennsylvania.

There are a lot of
churches in Pennsylvania.

Are-are you suggesting
that we follow you there?

I'm suggesting that
we all consider it.

Cecilia... hey.

Man, traffic was a nightmare.

I am so glad to
finally be off the .

I'm glad you're
the first face I see.

I knew something was wrong.

Where's Martin?

Upstairs.

You guys have a fight?

Yeah.

About me?

Yes... and no.

I'm sorry.

I mean, I really didn't want

to cause problems
between you and Martin.

I... I didn't want to
make you uncomfortable

when you were here with Martin.

I probably won't be here.

Why?

Martin and I just broke up.

Actually, I broke
up with Martin.

Me again?

No... but he thinks so.

Cecilia, what's going on?

I don't know.

Well, what do you want me to do?

I don't know.

Does this mean that...
we have another chance?

I don't know.

Well, do... do you want
us to have another chance?

I mean, do you still...
do you still want me?

Do you still love me?

Okay, so...

things aren't gonna
be uncomfortable

in the house for you.

They're gonna be
uncomfortable for me.

Well... (chuckles)

welcome home, Simon Camden.

CARLOS: Congratulations...

Grandma and Grandpa.

I'm a grandma.

I'm a grandpa.

They're bringing your wife

Thank you.

Thanks for everything.

chattering baby talk)

Oh, it's okay, baby.

ERIC: Hey, buddy.

So, have you and Mary decided

on, uh, a name

Charles Miguel.

For both our grandfathers
who have passed away.

Mary and-and mine.

(Annie sighing)

We-we need a picture.

Uh, yeah, right here.

CARLOS: Here we go.

Okay, on three.
