[sighs softly]

[Jeremiah] Morning, Bells.

Jeremiah, what are you...

Wait, Conrad, what are...

It's okay.

You and I are meant to be.

[Jeremiah] Belly, wait.

It's always been us.

How can you not see?

[Belly] Even my dream life
is complicated.


[sighs]

The truth is, everything's
gotten more complicated


ever since that kiss.

A kiss I can't stop
thinking about.


A kiss that's literally
invading my dreams.


It's invading everything.

[squawking]

Morning.

Morning, hon.
Hey, do you have a second?

Yeah.

Cleveland just called.
I got to go...

It'll just take a sec.

I want you to ask Belly to be
her escort to the deb ball.

Mom, I can't.

Why not?

Just tell Jeremiah to ask her.

Connie, you know how much
it'll mean to her if it's you.

You're her Prince Charming,
and we all know it.

No, that's not...

You've always been
so good to her.

Remember when
you were the only one

who'd let her tag after
you and the boys?

I just, uh... I want it
to go perfectly for her.

Please?

For me?

I'll think about it.

Okay, that's my Connie.

I didn't say I would do it.

Oh, and don't be late this
afternoon for the tournament

'cause we need help setting up.

- I know. I know.
- Play It Forward!

[Conrad] Play It Forward.

Uh, you know, it's, uh,
not too late to sign up.

Mom, no.

Maybe.

- Oh.
- Oh, sorry, um...

Uh, morning.

- Hi.
- [door closes]

- How'd you sleep?
- Fine.

Great.

[chuckles] No dreams.

[Steven] Excuse me.

Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me.

[door closes]

[Jeremiah] Hey, um,

you excited about
the volleyball tournament today?

[Steven] Belly!

Why do you keep leaving
your hair on the shower wall?

- Calm down.
- No. It is gross.

All right? If you do it again,
I'm leaving it on your pillow.

Steven!

I, uh, I didn't want
to rush you or anything,

but I would like to eventually

talk about what happened
the other night.

Y... uh, yeah, no, I mean...

But, uh, you know, with-with
Taylor coming into town

and the tournament
and everything...

- Gotcha. Yeah. Maybe after everything's...
- Yeah.

- [chuckles] Yeah. Sounds-sounds good.
- [chuckles]

- Okay.
- Great.

Okay.

Uh, I'm gonna... go get dressed.

I think your mom's
waiting for me.

- Yeah, yeah. See ya.
- [chuckles]

[Conrad sighs]

Yeah, it's wood rot.

Yeah, see how brittle it is
on the inside?

God, this is bad, man.

We have to pry off bits
until we reach clean wood.

[Cleveland sighs]

f*ck! Ow.

You're a little on edge,
my friend.

It's been a bad week.

Is your dad back in town?

No, other stuff.

How are things looking
with that girl?

Not good.

- [grunts]
- [wood snaps]

And this isn't
looking good either, man.

I mean, it just keeps
going and going.

The whole g*dd*mn thing is
infected, and I didn't notice.

It's everywhere,
and I didn't notice!

Conrad, whoa! Whoa.

- What is going on, man?
- [sighs]

My heart's b*ating
really fast, and, um...

[wheezing gasp]

[sniffles]

[whispers] It's really
hard to breathe.

Hey.

No, it's normal.
You're having a panic att*ck.

It's okay.

Okay, you look at me.

Deep breaths.

Okay?

In. [inhales]

Out. [exhales]

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

Let it out, man.

Conrad, what's going on?

It's my mom. She...

Everything okay?

Yeah. It's just hot today.

Just a little longer.

[sighs]

Don't you just love that dress?
[chuckles]

[sighs softly]

Yeah, I love it.

You excited for
the volleyball tournament?

Yeah, I can't wait.

I-I want to raise
the most money of anyone.

Mm, Steven's the only one
I'm worried about.

And which charity
are you representing?

The one you help with.

The homeless women's shelter.

[chuckles softly]

That's sweet.

Thank you, Belly.

Uh, sit still.

I just need a couple more
seconds with those frills.

There's a breathing technique
for anxiety att*cks.

Four seconds inhale
through your nose,

seven to hold, eight to exhale.

How do you know all this stuff?

It was when
my second book came out.

That's when I had my first
full-blown panic att*ck.

I went to the E.R. thinking
I was having a heart att*ck.

[chuckles] Learned
coping methods after that.

Wow.

Maybe you should
tell your mom you know.

Yeah, I know.

I want to. I swear.

But every time I try,
I don't know how.

I mean, she doesn't want me
or my brother to know.

Finding out would crush her.
It would ruin everything.

I feel like maybe if-if I...

I just keep it inside,
you know...

...maybe that's
what keeps her alive.

You're afraid
to step on a cr*ck.

You're afraid that you'll be
the one to make it real.

This isn't something
you can control.

This is happening whether
you say it out loud or not.

Conrad, it's not on you.

Okay?

It's not on me.

Hey, Belly.

Oh, hey.

What's that?

- My secret w*apon.
- Hmm.

Feeling good
about the tournament?

Yeah, I'm ready.

If you stay ready,
you won't have to get ready.

[chuckles softly]

Mm.

- That was cheesy.
- Yeah.

You try, you try coming up with

a motivational phrase
with no cheese.

[clicks tongue] Hmm.
I'm thinking.

- [chuckles]
- I'm thinking.

[laughs]

Belly?

Yeah?

I'm sorry.

For being cheesy?

For being a jerk the other day

and pretending like
I don't remember

when I remember everything.

I just keep replaying it
over and over again in my head.

I-I don't know what to say.

I know.

It's too little, too late.
I get it.

Um...

Can I take you to the ball?

What?

I mean, I already know
all the dances.

It's no problem.

[doorbell rings]

Uh, I'll-I'll think about it.

Think about it.

What have you gotten yourself
into, Cinderbelly?

- Oh, I'm so happy you're here.
- [sighs heavily]

- Where's my shirt, okay?
- [chuckles]

We're gonna kick
all of their asses.

[whispers] Yeah. Let's go.

[exhales softly]

[door closes]

- What's up, Taylor?
- Hey.

[quietly] What's the latest
with you two?

There's so much to go over.

You are kidding me.

Dead serious.

Was he cool about it
or was he nervous?

Or was he, like, begging?

Oh, my God, please tell me
he was begging.

He was not begging.

But he was
kind of nervous, though.

This just makes things
all the more exciting

because you get to tell him no.

Why doesn't she just go

Yeah.

Yo, did you see the car
in the garage, bro?

I think it's a Dino .

Liam's family loves to show off.

Dude, I can't imagine
growing up like this.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy, huh?

Whatever, man. You're rich, too.

Not like this. I mean...

I mean, these kids grew up
going to boarding school.

They saw their families
once a year.

That's why they're all
such assholes.

None of them are happy.

Come on, man.
You're such a buzzkill.

[cheering, whooping]

Oh, my God,
I knew my boy'd rally!

Yes!

[cheering continues]

Yes! [laughing]

Gimme some.

Yo, who's Jeremiah
hooking up with these days?

Uh, no one.

Oh, my...
No, actually, no, no, no.

Shayla has
this crazy theory, bro.

She thinks he's hooking up
with my sister.

Really?

Yeah, I know, man.
It sickens me, too.

That's... Wow.

But, uh, Shayla has a lot of
crazy theories, and Jere knows

I would k*ll him if he ever
touched my little sister.

- So, you know...
- Yo, boys! Hey, check it out!

It's an ice luge!
Come try it! Steven, come on!

Dude, I got to go.
I got to go. I got to go.

Uh, you mind?

Go for it.

[Gigi] Hey,

I do not want to have to pee

The other two girls missed out.

I know. I figured Dara wouldn't,
but Marissa?

- [phone chimes]
- Yeah, that's what I thought.

- [Gigi] Nicole.
- [Nicole] Yeah?

Conrad's texting you.

Okay, coming.

[laughter]

[sighs]

This is so nice.

Have to admit,
I like your friends.

I knew you would.

They all seem down with
you and Jeremiah.

Even Gigi,

I just realized something.

Hashtag Team Jellyfish-er.

- Jellyfisher.

Taylor, that is so dumb.

No, I'm serious. It's so cute.

I knew they were b*tches.

What's happening?

Wait.

Taylor, what's going on?

They took everything.

Except for your phone,

which has a really incriminating
text from Conbad.

Wait, what does it say?

"My mom did ask me
to ask you to the ball,

but that's not why I did it.

I did it because I wanted to."

Oh, my God.

- Belly, concentrate.
- [chuckles]

- What?
- Belly.

What? [stammers]
Okay, okay, okay.

W-Well, wh-what do we do?

I mean, we cannot
walk home naked.

It-it could be worse.

- Taylor. [chuckles]
- We're going.

What could be worse than this?

- [sighs]

Okay. Wh...

- What about that?
- [groans] No.

- [lively chatter,
laughter] - [♪ Virgin su1c1de: "Sedate Me"]

Hey.

What's up?

[sighs] Nothing.

So, hey, uh...

have you noticed anything
weird about Mom lately?

What?
What are you talking about?

Oh, she's just been
sleeping more.

Yeah, it's the summertime, Jere.

Our mom sleeps more
when she's on vacation.

Okay, all right. f*ck you.

And congrats on your win today.

I know how much
you hate to lose.

It's not about winning for me.

It's about doing things
the right way.

Okay, sure.

[dog barking in distance]

- This is so bad. So bad.
- I knew those girls were sh*t.

Okay, enough.

Okay, I get it. You were right.

Why can't we just call Jeremiah?
We're gonna be, like, m*rder*d.

No. Calling Jeremiah
would be too much drama.

I can't walk two more miles.

- Well, you're gonna have to.
- Oh, my God.

- [dog howling, barking]
- [imitating howling]

[chuckles]

[both laughing]

Shut up.

No, but this is why
Conrad's a disaster.

Like, he's hot and mysterious.

You know. I get it.

I know.

But everything he touches
turns to total sh*t.

[sighs]

Yeah. I-I don't know why
I keep letting him suck me in.

It's just like, today,
he was like the old Conrad

and-and everything,
it felt just like it used to.

- You know?
- He's got you back under his spell.

And then the spell broke,
and I realized I literally just

kicked Jeremiah
to the side for him.

Yeah, you kind of did do that.

Yeah.

I, um, I used to dream
about Conrad

and imagine what it would
be like, and I felt safe.

Because, you know,
it was never gonna come true.

He would never feel for me
what I feel for him.

When Jeremiah and I kissed,

it was real.

And real is-is, like... scary.

But isn't love
supposed to be a little scary?

Yeah, you're right.

I'm always right, like,
% of the time at least.

[both laughing]

[shushes]

[sighs] Okay.

- [phone beeps]
- Thank God.

- [lively chatter]
- [R&B music playing]

Conrad, I need to talk to you.
In private.

[Conrad] Okay.

Duty calls.

[phone vibrating]

Hey, Belly.

What?

[Conrad] What's up?

I was at Hopper's Cove,
and I saw your text to Belly.

You flat-out lied to me.

Like, actively
and passively lied to me.

Using me like a backup,
letting me think that

this could actually
be something,

making up
a whole-ass story about

how your mom is forcing you
to take Belly to the ball.

Nicole, I swear,
my mom really did ask me...

Just stop it already!

This whole summer, I've been
trying to figure this out.

Whatever this is.

But-but really, it's-it's always
been about Belly, hasn't it?

And I'm so annoyed with myself
for getting caught up in this

because I know better.

I never meant to hurt you.
I didn't...

Oh, please. You didn't hurt me.

You wasted my time.

There's a difference.

A lot of guys
want to be with me, Conrad.

I've got a hot-ass
college guy from Oxford

who's obsessed with me.

He actually knows what he wants.

Okay.

Okay?

I get it.

I led you on.

I f*cked everything up.

There's... a lot of sh*t
I've been dealing with,

and it's, uh...
That's not an excuse.

I'm sorry. Um...

It wasn't fair to you.

I'm sorry.

Your girlfriend and her friend
are gonna need this.

[engine starts]

- I'll raise .
- Hmm.

So, uh, how long
you guys been playing together?

Since freshman year at Choate.

Liam's president
of the Poker Society.

- Okay.
- Are you ever gonna play a hand?

[laughs]

- Yeah. Uh, yeah.
- [Liam laughs]

All in.

- Oh!
- [laughter]

Let's see if Steven from P.A.

can keep this
lucky streak alive.

[laughs]

Oh, sh*t.

f*ck yeah! [laughing]

Ah! [laughing]

It's all good, buddy. I mean,
we all hit a wall at some point,

- right? [laughs]
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Break?

[laughs]

And then, afterwards, like,

raise the antes, like-like,
another , yeah? [laughs]
