A Teacher (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript
Tensions arise as Claire and Matt explore pregnancy options. Claire chaperones the homecoming dance and Eric comes clean about his true feelings.
‐ Okay, well, if we continue
to move forward together,
it's very doable to get
pregnant in a matter of months.
But if you want to have
a baby right away,
it might be a good idea
to take a look at the options
we have to offer.
‐ Okay, um, I'll‐‐
I have the pamphlets.
I'll look over those.
‐ Yeah. We'll discuss it
and we'll get back to you.
‐ Sounds good.
‐ Okay, thank you.
‐ Yeah, you guys take care.
‐ Thank you very much.
Bye.
‐ I thought it was
good news, right?
‐ She said my uterus
is "rapidly deteriorating."
‐ She didn't say "rapidly."
Whatever.
Either way, whether it's
IUI or IVF,
either way, if she thinks
we can have a baby‐‐
‐ Yeah, but I'm the one
that's in there getting
poked and prodded‐‐
‐ Yeah, and I wish I could
take some of that
off your plate, but...
It's good information.
‐ Yeah, it is, it's just‐‐
now I'm late for school, and‐‐
Can we just talk
about it later?
‐ All right.
‐ Okay.
‐ Yeah.
‐ Bye.
‐ Okay. Have a nice day.
‐ You too.
‐ Ms. Wilson, um...
‐ No, listen.
Um, yesterday was not okay.
‐ I get it. No, I do.
That's what I wanted
to talk to you about.
‐ I'm gonna find you
a new tutor.-
I‐‐I don't want a new tutor‐‐
‐ That is not my problem.
‐ Okay, look, I'm sorry.
‐ No, no, no, if anyone‐‐
if anyone found out
what you did yesterday, I‐‐
My life would be ruined.
- ‐ I haven't told anybody.
- ‐
‐ Look, I'm not‐‐
I'm not going to.
I‐‐I get it.
Look, I'm sorry. I‐‐
I should not have kissed you.
All right, I understand that.
It's my fault.
And it won't happen again.
‐ Good.
‐ Okay. Okay, good.
You'll‐‐
you'll still tutor me, right?
‐ No.
No, I'm sorry, I‐‐
No.
‐ Claire.
Uh‐‐
Ms. Wilson.
I can't afford the classes
that everyone else takes.
Please?
‐ Okay, well‐‐
‐ I'm asking you, I‐‐
‐ Can you help me?
‐ Listen, if I agree,
then you need to promise me‐‐
‐ I promise.
I promise.
‐ Okay.
‐ Okay.
‐ So then, um...
Saturday, then.
Before homecoming.
‐ Thank you.
‐ Yo.
‐ What?
‐ What's up with you and Josh?
‐ Nothing, he's just‐‐
He's just a little pissed
that I'm taking his sister
to homecoming.
Who are you taking?
‐ Don't know.
‐ Dude, it's Thursday.
Dance is Saturday.
Your options are slim.
‐ I just don't think
I'm gonna go.
‐ What? No, no.
‐ Yeah.
No, dude, come on.
We're seniors.
‐ No.
‐ No, do‐‐do not do this to me.
We only have so many, you know,
chances to fucking, like,
make mistakes and shit.
Plus, I got some hotel suites
for the after party.
Hey, you got Meadow to take
your ass back, right?
‐ Yeah.
I just had to ignore
her for a week.
It's depressing
how much that works.
‐ Nah, people just want
what they can't have.
It's human nature.
‐ Why don't you just
take Alison, dude?
We both thought you guys
were gonna get back together
eventually, so‐‐
‐ No.
‐ No, no, no, please.
Dude, I can't take another year
of Alison spewing politics.
We get it, you're a feminist.
Heads up.
Okay, I feel like we
haven't helped at all.
I'm swamped.
I've done nothing but help,
I cannot give any more than
I'm already giving.
‐ Okay, well, I'm gonna
I don't know, like,
organize these streamers.
‐ That is noble.
‐ Yeah.
No, you're right.
I was thinking
of skipping the dance.
Unless, uh, Alison here
would be kind enough
to come with me.
Oh, my God, Eric.
All right, um,
gotta get back to this.
- Can you pass me that?
- Sure.
Wait, so‐‐
Is that a yes?
Or...
‐ Yes.
‐ You guys, what,
talking politics?
‐
What's up?
‐ What up?
Got a date
for the dance now.
‐
You didn't.
‐ I totally did.
‐ Yes.
‐ Woma
n at the store said it
was a very fruit‐forward,
very drinkable wine.
‐ Mmm.
‐ Very effervescent.
‐ Great.
‐ Cheers.
‐ Babe.
Cheers.
You think at all about what
the doctor said this morning?
‐ Could we just talk
about this another time?
‐ Yeah, sure. I thought we were
gonna talk about it tonight.
‐ I just started
at Westerbrook.
I don't really wanna be pumped
full of hormones right now.
‐ Yeah, I get it.
Okay, I'm just gonna
say this one thing.
Whenever you're ready,
we'll make it work.
I just really wanna start
a family with you.
Okay.
I never will.
But I will keep
getting you beers.
‐ Oh.
‐ Oh, shit. What's up, Eric?
‐ What's up, man?
‐ What's up, dude?
Good to see you.
‐ Good to see you too.
‐ You hanging out tonight?
‐ Nah.
Hey, you guys gotta get
some better fake IDs.
Little tired doing runs for you
and I'm missing the mixer
at the Delta Chi's house
to hang out with you fucks.
Yo. Next year.
You excited?
Omega Kappa Beta, baby.
‐ Yeah, man.
‐ You, me, killing it.
‐ Yeah, dude,
you know how it is.
If I even get in.
‐ Come on, you're getting in.
What are you even
talking about?
Dude!
You never told me.
How did it go with that chick?
The one you were parading
around with last weekend.
‐ Uh...
‐ What was her name?
‐ Wait, what?
You fucking tell my brother
before you tell me?
‐ No, it's no big deal.
I‐‐we just met.
Um, I met her at work.
Yeah, her name's, uh, Steph‐‐
Steph‐‐uh, Stephanie.
Yeah.
‐ Stephanie.
‐ Yeah, she, um‐‐
she came into
the diner one day,
we started talking,
we hit it off, and, uh...
She‐‐she goes to UT.
‐ It's true.
‐ Uh‐huh.
‐ Okay, well, how hot
are we talking, boys?
‐ Really hot‐‐you know, like
a sophisticated kind of way.
Smoke shop.
‐ Damn, dude.
College girl?
God, I love older women.
‐ That's why you're taking
- Josh's sister tonight, right?
- No.
‐ Hey, you know what?
Fuck you guys.
Fuck you guys. Age is just
a number, all right?
When are we gonna meet her?
‐ Well, I don't know.
She, uh‐‐
she's been a little hot
and cold recently, but...
You know me,
I'm working on it.
‐ 'Course you fucking are.
You're Eric fucking Walker.
Don't you forget it, baby.
Yo, Logan, give me a beer.
‐ I got you.
Here you go.
‐ Thank you.
You're a psychopath.
Cheers.
