Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990–2000): Season 7, Episode 29 - Mother's Day - full transcript

On the weekend of Mother's day, Clare still grieves over her long-dead mother and Steve cannot figure out what to do to increase her spirits. Kelly must share a shocking secret with Brandon when she thinks that she may be pregnant. Meanwhile, Valerie makes a pass at David as part of her latest scheme to get him to buy her share of the Peach Pit After Dark as part of a nefarious plan of hers to invest the cash in Kelly's father's business. Donna becomes stressed out in balancing time with David and studying for her final exams, and has another run-in with her cold-hearted business professor, Langley, who openly disapproves of Donna dating David because the professor sees him as a distraction to Donna's future.

Did you get it yet?

No.

Now I'm six and
a half days late.

That's not that bad;
I've been later than that.

Yeah, but you're
a virgin, Donna.

There's a big difference.

Yeah, thanks for reminding me.

Look, stop driving
yourself crazy.

It may not mean anything.

What if it does?

Just give it a little
more time. Why?



You're acting like I should
pretend like this isn't happening,

but what if I am
pregnant? What then?

I just think you should relax.

It's practically
impossible anyway.

You use a condom every time.

Right?

Oh, great.

Now do you see
why I'm so scared?

How could you take that risk?

I know, I know. No,
especially after Jimmy.

Kelly, he died of AIDS.

Didn't that teach you anything?

Donna, don't lecture me, okay?

I was tested.
Brandon was tested.



We were both negative.

I know there's still a
risk, but I was just sure

it was the wrong time
of the month, you know?

I don't know, I don't know.

It was just that
one time though.

Why is this happening?

It's gonna be okay.

Stress relief, huh?

Yeah, I think so.

Hey, bud, what're you doing?

Just packing some stuff up.

I hope my mom likes
her Mother's Day present.

It doesn't look cheap, does it?

I don't know. Was it cheap?

Hell no.

This aromatherapy
garbage cost a fortune.

Well, then she'll love it.

No, she won't.

My mother never
loves my presents.

She'll pretend she does,
but she's an actress.

And a professional one, no less.

The thing I always
liked about my mother

was that she always liked
my Mother's Day presents...

No matter how stupid they were.

When I was five, I gave
her a dead centipede.

She kept it in the
fridge for weeks.

Oh, that's the key to
your high self-esteem...

Unconditional motherly love.

Your mother loves you.

Yeah, in kind of a
critical way though.

I always feel she thinks
I could do things better.

Maybe you could
do things better.

She's not the only one

who thinks there's
room for improvement.

Let me guess... Clare?

Yeah.

Everything I do is wrong.

I buy her roses,
it's the wrong color.

Did you know that pink roses

aren't as passionate
as red roses?

Oh, yeah. Everybody knows that.

Since when?

Since forever.

Bro, what's with the two of you?

All you do is fight.

Ever since my mom broke
up with her dad, oh, it's bad.

She blames my mom,
I'm forced to defend her.

It's getting ugly.

Well, maybe it's time for
the two of you to break up.

What's the big
attraction anyway?

The make-up sex,
it's pretty righteous.

Please tell Kelly that
her father sends his love

and I cannot wait to meet her.

Sure.

Bottom line...

I'm more concerned
about your bottom line

than I am about your friend's

or my boss' daughter.

Well, uh, so how
is my bottom line?

Not as healthy as it could be.

Well, the club's doing great.

Oh, don't get me wrong.

You have a great place,

you seem to have
great headliners,

but you're tying
up your cash here.

For the amount invested

you could be getting
a much bigger return.

So you're saying I
should sell the club?

We'll talk about it over dinner.

No, no, no. Tell me now.

Valerie, from what I can tell,

you've only got
about ten grand liquid.

Now, even if you are
his daughter's best friend,

Bill will not talk to you unless

you're sitting on
at least 100 G's.

Well, the club is worth
much more than that.

Cash. In escrow
with the company.

Valerie, I'm not pressuring you.

You called us.

No, I know.

And I want to do this, I do.

It's just... I don't know
who'd want to buy the club.

It could take a long time.

Well, maybe your other partner.

David Silver?

Maybe, but I don't know why

he'd want to buy me out.

You have to make him want to.

Well, how?

There's always a way.

Think about it for a while.

I'll see you tonight.

Hey. Hi.

Glad I caught you.

I was looking all over
for you at the library.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I thought you were gonna
help me out at the club today.

Oh, God, I totally forgot.

I can't. I told, Kelly...

that actually, I have
to study for this final

in Langely's class.

I mean, you know she has it in for
me. You know, Donna, it's Saturday.

You might want to give
yourself a little bit of a break.

Hey. You ready to go home?

Yeah.

Ah. I thought you had to study.

I do. That's why

we're going home.

Oh.

But I'll see you tonight.

Okay. Am I gonna
see you tonight?

Yeah, Val, mentioned it,

but I think the less I
see of her the better.

Kel, come on,
this is a huge act.

I mean, this isn't just
Val's club, it's my club, too.

Okay. But can you
tell Val to stay home?

No, but I'll make sure

she's on her best
behavior. Thanks.

Bye. Bye.

Did you get it?

Yeah.

I can't believe that they
sell home pregnancy tests

right here in the student store.

I can't do this here.

Well, come on,
let's go home. Okay.

Clare, hey, I'm just on
my way out. What's up?

Is Steve home?

Yeah, he's upstairs
taking a shower. Go on up.

Actually could you, could
you grab him for me?

Sure. Thanks.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm just gonna wait
in the living room.

Hey, Steve, Clare's downstairs.

Tell her to come up.

I did. She doesn't want to.

This is gonna be
a bad day, isn't it?

That's me.

Hello.

Hi.

Hey, babe. What's
going on with Clare?

I don't know. I left
before she got up. Why?

I don't know.

She just looks kind of
sad, that's all. What's up?

Brandon, can you
skip the library today?

You don't have to,
but... What's going on?

You don't sound so good.

Just come over.

Is this about Valerie?

For once, no.

All right.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Just hurry.

I'm on my way.

What am I going to tell him?

Well, hopefully, you won't
have to tell him anything,

except that it
was a false alarm.

I know I said I wanted to know,

but now that I have this in
my hand, it's like a time bomb.

Up until the moment
I take the test,

I can just pretend like
none of this is happening,

but if this comes back
positive, there's no turning back.

I wish I could say I understand.

But how can I?

You're my best friend.

You're helping me.

Okay.

Well, it, uh, it almost
happened last week.

What did?

I almost had sex with
David in New Orleans.

But I didn't.

You're lucky.

You're never gonna have
to deal with any of this.

You'll get married,

and if you get pregnant, it
will be because you want to be.

I guess.

Sometimes, I just feel like

the oldest virgin
in the whole world.

Don't say that.

You're doing the right thing.

Sometimes I wish I had a
code to live by, you know.

No, that just seems
the easy way out.

You know, do as you're told

and then you don't ever
have to make a brave decision

your whole life.

I think you're the
bravest person I know.

Thank you.

Hey, I have an idea.

Why don't you put in a few
good words for me upstairs.

I'll make him a deal.

I'm not pregnant, and I will
become a practicing Catholic.

Nope, won't work.

God doesn't make deals.

Mm. Too bad.

But he does listen to prayers.

Well, I sure hope
he's listening to mine.

Hey, sexy.

What's going on?

Nothing.

You know what tomorrow is?

Sunday.

Mm. It's Mother's Day.

Ever since my mom died,
it's the worst day of the year.

Oh, honey.

I keep thinking that things
will get easier, you know?

That time will
heal, but it doesn't.

I'll tell you what.

Sunday we'll... go for a drive,

take your mind off
things, just you and me.

We'll drive up the coast.

A drive?

I'm talking to
you... about death...

I'm talking to you
about death here,

and you think taking a
drive is gonna get rid of that?

You know, I'm trying
here, Clare, I'm really trying.

It's kind of frustrating for me.

Whatever I say or whatever
I do, it's not good enough.

I can't believe

you're making this about you.

Why are you being so selfish?

You're the one who's
making this about me.

I'm trying to love you here,

but all you do

is criticize me.

Honey, I'm sorry you're in pain,

but if you didn't want my
help, why did you come here?

I don't know.

Listen to us.

All we do is fight.

When times are
good, times are bad.

It's not good.

We got to work through this.

You know, it's funny...

I come here to tell you

that I'm coming up on
the worst day of the year,

and you decide that it's time

to deal with the cracks
in our relationship.

You know what?
You deal with it, okay?

I don't have the
heart for it today.

Clare... Happy Mother's Day.

No. I'm not giving
you the last word.

Not today.

You might be the
smartest girl I know, Clare,

but right now you
don't sound too bright.

If we're gonna
make it through this,

you need to lean on me.

Lean.

Don't push.

I'm sorry.

You're right.

Maybe a drive up the coast would
be a nice way to spend Sunday.

Maybe.

But let's not wait till Sunday.

Let's get some fresh
air, get a fresh start.

Okay?

Okay.

Hey. I ordered extra
security for tonight,

just in case.

Well, you've got everything
under control, don't you?

Yeah. Yeah, I guess I do.

Why? You got

a problem with something?

No, not at all...
I'm just saying

that you're doing
a fabulous job.

Booking the talent and working

with the managers
and making deals.

All right, Val,
what do you want?

I hear it coming.

Nothing. Can't I give
you a compliment?

Sure. Yeah.

I'm just looking for
the strings, that's all.

David there's no strings.

It's just, you're doing
such a good job,

you hardly need me anymore.

What's that supposed to mean?

David, relax, okay?

I'm just saying I'm glad
that you're my partner.

That's all.

Donna, where's Kelly?

She's in the bathroom.
Wh-What's going on?

Just talk to her, okay?

Kel?

I'll be out in a minute.

What's going on?

Brandon, please talk to her.

Kel...

Oh, God.

What's going on?

What do you want me to do?

Nothing.

Um, I'm fine.

Just go meet...

David.

I need to talk to Brandon alone.

Okay.

Um, I'll call you later.

Are you all right?

That depends on
how you look at it.

I'm pregnant.

What?

I took a home pregnancy test,

and it came out positive.

But you're okay?

Yeah, but did you hear me?

I'm pregnant.

Yeah, yeah, I heard you,
and I understand, but...

when I heard your
voice on the phone,

I thought that something
was really wrong.

I thought you were
sick or something.

Brandon, what are we gonna do?

Well, we're gonna get you an
appointment with a real doctor.

We're not going to rely on
a drugstore pregnancy test.

And if a real doctor says that
you're really pregnant, then...

we'll deal with it then.

It's gonna be okay.

How can you say that?

What'd you expect me to say?

I-I...

called the doctor... she
can't see me till Monday.

That's all right. No,

we need to talk
about this now. Kelly...

I love you.

I love you, too.

Then trust me.

There's nothing we can do

until we know what's what.

Okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Well, I'm glad you came by.

Me, too.

Here we go... two
megaburgers, medium.

Thanks, Nat. Haven't
seen you around much

lately, Don.

I'm just trying to pass
my courses and graduate.

I haven't had any time
to breath, let alone eat.

Well, you got to eat.

Especially if you're studying.

You're starting to
sound like me, Silver.

Or better yet, my mother. Ha-ha!

So why the sudden
change of heart?

I mean, I'm-I'm
glad you came by.

I just thought you
couldn't make it today.

I know I said that, but...
I just needed to see you.

Uh-oh. What'd I do?

Nothing! I just needed
to see you and to kiss you

and to tell you in
person how grateful I am

you've had the
patience to wait for me.

To wait for what?

You know.

Donna...

I'm not waiting for you,
I'm waiting with you.

There's a big difference.

You really get it, don't you?

Yeah. Yeah, I
think I finally do.

Mm.

Your burgers are getting cold.

Thanks, Nat.

Taking a study
break, Miss Martin?

Hi. Professor Langely,

I, uh, I-I didn't know
that you came here.

Teachers do eat.

Nat's been feeding
me for years. Oh. Yeah,

I meant I-I've never see...

That's great. Must I remind you,

your final is in one week,

and your course grade
lies in the balance.

You might want to reconsider

your priorities.

But...

Good luck on the exam.

Or on the romance...
Whichever is more important.

She's cold.

I got to go.

I can't fail this exam.

Well, I'll-I'll see
you tonight, right?

Yeah. Okay, yeah, I'll try.

Donna... relax.

I can't relax.

Didn't you hear her?

I'll call you later.

Are you scared?

Sure I am.

Jesse and Andrea
made it... so could we.

Yeah.

But do you want to?

I don't know.

Think about it, Brandon,
this is the time in our life

when we're supposed
to be having fun.

Yeah. Yeah, it is.

But maybe it's time
to put something

or... somebody ahead of that.

Your mother did.

With Erin, you mean?

Yeah.

Well, she had an abortion
once, too, Brandon.

She said it was hard, but...

it was the right choice for her.

Well, what if we don't
make that choice?

I just don't think
it's the right time.

Is there ever a right time?

We could survive a baby, Kelly.

People do it all the time.

What if I decided to
end this pregnancy?

Could we survive that?

It's a wonderful room, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's pretty cool.

David, what went wrong with us?

I don't think this is exactly

the right time to
explore our past.

I mean, we have

a big night to get ready for.

You know, my mom
used to say that, um...

the past is history,

and the future is a mystery

and the present is a gift.

A gift.

Take it.

Val, don't.

What, don't you
ever think about me?

About us?

What's on your mind?

I think you know.

David, I think about you

all the time.

I can't help it.

Come on.

Stop it!

Fine. I just thought
you might want to feel

a woman's skin again.

It's not like you're
feeling much of Donna.

Or is she putting out a
little more these days?

I'll see you tonight.

Hello.

You've reached the
office of Derek Driscoll

at Bill Taylor Investments.

Please leave a message,
and I'll call you back.

Hi, Derek, it's Valerie Malone.

I think David Silver may
want to buy me out after all.

So why don't you
come by the club tonight,

and we can celebrate.

I'm so glad we did this.

You were right. I know.

See, I'm not a total idiot.

I'm the idiot.

Well, now that we've
established that,

I've got some
more advice for you.

What?

Well, Clare, your
dad's really the only one

who can relate to how
much you missed your mom

this time of year, so...

why don't you spend
Mother's Day with him?

No, I can't.

Why not?

'Cause he won't talk about it.

When she died, he put all her
pictures away, and that was it.

Maybe you can
get through to him.

I've tried.

You know, I think
you should just

stick to one good idea a day.

No, Clare you've
got to keep trying.

It'll be good for him, too.

He's still not over
your mom at all.

Why does he have to be?

Because he needs
to get on with his life.

Is that what your
mom told you? Yeah.

She gave me an earful about it.

She's a narcissistic snob.

I'm not doing this.

No, not this time.

Listen to you!

This is exactly what
I'm talking about, Clare.

You know what?

I can't change you,
but I could change me.

I am not fighting
with you anymore.

That's it.

If we're gonna stay together,

we need to fix this and fast.

I know.

I just don't know how.

Me, neither.

Thanks for giving
me a ride, you guys.

Ah, it's our pleasure, Donna.

Besides, with you here,
maybe Clare and I won't fight.

Don't bet on it.

You know, we don't

have to do this. We
could always go home.

No, I'm okay. All right.

As long as we're here,

let's have a good
time, huh? Okay.

You know, I just
want to tell you,

you're really being incredible.

I don't know what I
would do without you.

You don't have to
think about that, do you?

Oh, my mom is here.

David must have

invited everybody. Did
you tell her anything?

No, not yet.

I don't think it's a very
good Mother's Day present.

Hi.

Hi, honey.

Where's Mel?

Oh, he's at a conference
of oral surgeons

in Vancouver till next week.

I was supposed to go,

but I don't want to leave
Erin on Mother's Day.

Or you, sweetie. Aw.

Even though you're all grown up,

I'm still your mommy.

Let me order you
a Shirley Temple.

♪ Anything you want, baby ♪

Hi, guys.

Um, I thought you
weren't gonna make it.

Well, we weren't going to,

but David really
wanted Kelly here.

Sorry to disappoint.

Don't be silly.

We wouldn't have
missed it for the world.

Well, you guys have a
good time. Excuse me.

There's a Mr. Driscoll at the
door who says he's your guest.

Oh, uh, listen,

you can't let him in, okay?

Just-just, uh, just
tell him anything.

Just-just tell him
we're sold out.

Derek Driscoll cannot
come in here tonight, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Honey, are you all right?

I'm fine.

I don't know; you look pale.

Mom...

Brandon, does she
look okay to you?

Don't answer that.

Come on, Mom.

Let's go to the ladies' room.

I'm about to ruin
your Mother's Day.

♪ Sweet surrender
now that you are mine ♪

What am I gonna do?

Oh, honey.

I can't answer that for you.

No one can.

I know.

I had an abortion once.

I couldn't do it again.

But when I had Erin, I
was in a different place.

I was older.

It was my last chance.

Do you ever look back and
think about what might have been?

Yeah.

I do.

I don't like to.

Just never thought I'd
have to make this decision.

No one does.

What does the doctor
say? I don't know.

I-I don't see her till Monday.

I have to say, sweetie,
that of all people,

I-I can't believe you
could let this happen.

That's a nice reaction, Mom.

How?

You tell me.

You made the same mistake twice.

Kelly...

Or was I an accident, too?

We never really discussed that.

I'm sorry.

I know how traumatic it is.

No, I don't think you do.

I dreaded telling you,
and now I know why.

Kelly, please. You know what?

Forget it.

I'll figure this out on my own.

Kelly, don't do this.

Don't turn me into the bad guy,
not when you need me the most.

Well, what if I don't need you?

No matter what you decide,

whatever you do,

I will support you.

You will? Yes.

And by the way, you
weren't a mistake.

Not when you were
conceived, not ever.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Look...

why don't you tell Brandon
I was tired or something.

You guys don't need me
around on a night like this.

Okay.

Thanks, Mom.

I'm sorry I gave you
a hard time before.

You're entitled.

You're pregnant.

Remember, no matter what,

I'm on your side.

Look, can I talk to you
outside for a second?

Now?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's kind of important.

Okay.

Uh, you guys,

we'll be right back.

Sorry. Yeah.

I'm gonna go home. Honey...

I'm sorry.

It's a great show.

I know, I know.

It has nothing to do with that.

I'll just grab a cab
or something, okay?

Well, you know what,
I'll take you home.

No.

Steve, I'll be fine
by Monday, okay?

Until then, I just
want to be alone.

It'll be better for
both of us, okay?

Bye.

Hey, Derek.

Hey! I'm sorry it was

so much trouble to get in here.

I left your name at the door.

Don't sweat it. My uncle
Ben took care of that.

You gave my bouncer
$100 to get in here?

I'm impressed.

And he's fired.

No, don't do that.

I told him

you and I were friends.

Well, you must have
been very convincing.

So, where's this
famous Kelly Taylor?

I keep telling her dad
I'm gonna meet her,

and you never come through.

Yeah, I know.

She was supposed
to be here tonight,

but, um, you know,
I-I haven't seen her.

I don't know.

Huh.

Well, it's no big deal.
What does she look like?

Um, she's, uh, really tall

and has really long,
beautiful black hair.

You can't miss her.

Hey, Val.

Hey, Shelley.

Did she just call me Shelley?

I don't know. Did she?

Try to get some sleep tonight.

I will.

Bye, Mom.

Hey, where's your mom?

She was tired.

She went home.

You mean, she's
surprised, horrified, upset.

Mm, all of the above.

Is it my fault?

No, of course not.

So what's her vote?

Excuse me?

What does she
think we should do?

She didn't give me any advice.

She just said it
was my decision.

Your decision?

Our decision.

No, you were right

the first time; it
is your decision.

Can we just not talk
about this for awhile

and just listen to the music?

This afternoon, you
wanted to talk about it.

You wanted to get everything
settled in ten minutes.

Yeah, well, this isn't

this afternoon anymore, okay?

I'm tired of thinking about it.

I just want to forget
about everything

for a couple of hours,
and then I want to...

crawl into bed and go to sleep.

Whose bed?

Mine.

I understand.

What do you mean
she came on to you?

How?

Donna, you really don't
want to hear the details.

Yeah, I do.

I want to know everything.

All right, fine.

She kissed me.

That what you wanted to hear?

No.

I want to know, did
you kiss her back?

No.

Donna, that's why
I'm telling you this.

What do you want, a medal?

I thought you should know.

I mean, this is very
uncomfortable for me.

I didn't know what to do, and I
thought maybe you could help me.

But you know what,
I'm sorry for asking.

Never mind.

No.

No, I'm sorry.

Look, I can't tell you not
to sleep with someone else

when I won't give you the
option of sleeping with me.

I don't want to sleep
with anybody but you.

This isn't about sex.

This is about Valerie.

And you know how she
works as well as anybody.

What do I do?

You can't work together anymore.

We don't just work together.

I own this place.
Half of it, anyway.

Then sell.

There's other clubs.

It's not that easy.

I knew this wasn't over.

You know, I tried
not to worry about it,

but deep down, I knew
that Valerie wouldn't give up.

It just kills her to see
you with somebody else.

David, she's gonna try
again, and what if next time...

what if next time,
you're not that strong?

This is very simple.

Our entire relationship
is on the line here.

And if you don't get that, I
just can't explain it to you.

Silver, what are you doing here?

Hey. Is Valerie home?

Yeah, she's upstairs.

Thanks.

Val?

Well, hi.

So, does this mean

that you've had a
change of heart?

You amaze me.

You have absolutely no respect

for my relationship
with Donna whatsoever.

I can't take it.

Well, excuse me.

How am I supposed to respect
something that isn't there?

It's ridiculous.

What kind of relationship

is that?

David, I know you.
I've slept with you.

And maybe for a week

I could kind of see the appeal,

but how long are you
gonna live like a monk, huh?

It's really none
of your business.

I'm selling, Val.

Selling?

Just name the price, okay?

I can't work with you anymore.

Has no sex addled your brain?

Or are you just too
angry to admit the truth?

The truth? The truth is, David,

that the club means more
to you than it ever did to me.

You love it.

You love everything about it.

The crowds, the music,

late nights.

Maybe that's why you've
gone with no sex for so long.

You get the same
charge every night.

Well, I'll find it
somewhere else.

David, listen to me.

Let me sell the club to you.

The truth is,

it's way too hard
to be around you.

I think about you,

way too much to
see you everyday.

Especially you with Donna.

All right, fine.

Fine, draw up the contracts.

You're out of business.

I stopped to see your
father this morning.

You did?

Yup, bright and early.

You know he likes
poppyseed bagels, too?

Yeah, I know.

Yeah, well, um, we sat
and we had a nice long talk.

Two hours.

He showed me some pictures.

He thought maybe
you'd like to see them.

Oh, my...

You were

a very pretty
little girl, Clare.

You think so?

Yeah. Your mom was
absolutely beautiful.

Yeah.

Come on. There's
some great ones in here.

He looked at these?

He hasn't opened that
book since she died.

That's not true.

Your dad told me he looks

at a picture of your
mom every night.

He even talks to her.

He's never told me that.

You never asked him.

He thought you just didn't
want to talk about her.

But he did.

You know I was wrong
about your father, Clare.

He is over your mom.

As much as anybody can be
over somebody they really loved.

It's you, Clare.

You're the one who's
still not over her.

She was my mom, you know.

I miss her.

Well, then look at her.

Talk to her.

If you let her
back into your life,

she'll help you heal.

You ready?

I thought she was

the most beautiful
woman in the world.

I think you look just like her.

I do love this restaurant.

What a perfect choice.

I hope Kelly and
Erin get here soon.

The traffic was terrible.

Oh, tell me about it.

I was thinking
about walking here.

Oh,

there's David. I didn't
know he was coming.

Well, neither did I. I thought
this was a "ladies only" brunch.

Uh, me, too. Just
hang on a second.

Hi, sorry to interrupt.

This will just take a second.

Well, I wonder
what that's all about.

Oh, I'm sure everything's fine.

With David, you
can't always be sure.

What's going on?

Well, I was up all night

and I came to a decision.

I told Val I'm buying her out.

Oh, good!

Well, I guess
you like that idea.

Oh, yes, that is a great idea.

Uh, well, where are you
going to get the money?

Well, first I'll try the
bank and then my dad.

And if all else fails,

I was actually thinking
of asking your mom.

That doesn't matter.

All I know is how
much you mean to me

and how much the
club means to me.

And I don't plan

on losing either of them.

Good.

He really does love my
daughter, doesn't he?

That's something I'm sure of.

So I should have
the money very soon.

That's great.

Mr. Silver is a perfect buyer.

Let him have the headaches.

You'll have the cash.

So, Bill Taylor's that
good with money, huh?

He's better than good.

And he cannot wait to meet you.

When exactly is that gonna be?

As soon as he gets
back from Manila.

And until then,
what do I have to do?

It's simple, really.

As soon as you close the deal
on the club, we take the proceeds,

put 'em into an interest-bearing

money-market account
until you and Bill can

plan out a complete
investment strategy.

That sounds great.

This is a smart move.

You're going to
make a lot of money.

But more important, you're gonna

feel taken care of

by someone who really
knows what he's doing.

Well, I'm grateful.

I was definitely not
meant to be a club owner.

Maybe not.

But you were meant to be rich.

And I'm gonna see to that.

All right, so, uh,
to new beginnings?

And future success.

I'm glad you decided
to stay here tonight.

My bed felt awfully lonely.

I just need you to hold me.

You know, Kel,

whatever you decide,

I'll be here to love
and support you.

That's what you keep saying.

That's what everyone's saying,

that they'll support
me no matter what.

But I don't know
what to do, Brandon.

I don't want to make
this decision alone.

But it's your decision to make.

It's your body.

But it's our baby.

I need to know

how you feel
about this, Brandon.

How you really feel.

Okay.

At 22...

I don't know if I'm
ready to be a father,

but at 42...

I don't want to look back
and realize that we made

the biggest
mistake of our lives.

Neither do I.

But we're so young, you know?

We can have a house
full of children someday.

Yeah.

But one will always be missing.

This would be so much
easier if I didn't love you.

You're gonna do it, aren't you?

I don't know how I'm
gonna live with myself.

But I can't have
the baby right now.

I know.
