Angela: OH, MY GOD!

Jordan: WHAT YOU DOING?!

I'M SORRY!



SLOW DOWN, SLOW DOWN! HEY!

HELP ME! WHAT AM I DOING?!

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!

I DON'T KNOW!

STOP THE CAR!

HELP ME!

STOP THE CAR! STOP... STOP!

OOPS.

WELL, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE LET ME!

I TOLD YOU I COULDN'T DRIVE.

THIS IS ONLY LIKE
MY SECOND TIME...

BEHIND THE WHEEL.

I'M REALLY SORRY. I
COULDN'T FIND THE BRAKE.

HOW LONG ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO KEEP DOING THIS?



I KNOW.

I MEAN... WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

WELL, YEAH, I...

BUT WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?

I MEAN, I KNOW WHAT
YOU WANT ME TO DO, BUT...

DO YOU EVER GET OBSESSED
WITH THE REARVIEW MIRROR,

LIKE, WHILE YOU'RE DRIVING?

LOOK...

CAN'T WE JUST...

JUST WHAT? JUST...

DO IT?

RIGHT HERE IN A PARKING LOT?

WE'RE NOT IN A PARKING
LOT. WE'RE IN A CAR.

WHY, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO DO IT?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

HOW ABOUT IN MY ROOM TONIGHT

AFTER MY PARENTS FALL ASLEEP.

But we'll have
to be really quiet.

WHAT, YOU ACTUALLY, LIKE,
EXPECT ME TO CHOOSE A PLACE?

WELL, YEAH.

I BETTER GO TO GEOMETRY.

Rickie: LOOK AT THAT
CYNTHIA HARGROVE.

PLEASE, IT'S A PIERCED NOSE.

IT'S NOT LIKE AN ACTUAL
PERSONALITY OR SOMETHING.

WHO ARE WE TRASHING?

CYNTHIA HARGROVE'S NOSE STUD.

IT'S TOO SMALL! IT'S LIKE
A SEMI-PRECIOUS PIMPLE.

SHE IS SUCH A SLEAZE. YOU
ARE, LIKE, SUCH AN IMPROVEMENT.

TOTALLY.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

YOU MEAN JORDAN WENT
OUT WITH CYNTHIA HARGROVE?

WELL, WENT OUT...

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY

OUTSIDE LOCATIONS
THEY ACTUALLY WENT TO.

BUT SHE'S SOMEBODY
JORDAN USED TO... UM...

YES, JORDAN USED TO "UM" HER.

YOU KNEW THAT. YOU MUST
HAVE KNOWN THAT. I KNEW THAT.

I MUST HAVE BLANKED IT OUT.

IT'S OK, IT'S NO BIG DEAL.

I JUST DIDN'T QUITE KNOW
ABOUT CYNTHIA HARGROVE.

SO... NOW I KNOW.

THEY OBVIOUSLY
HAVEN'T "UM'D" YET.

Angela: I COULDN'T
STOP THINKING ABOUT IT,

THE, LIKE, FACT OF IT.

THAT PEOPLE HAD SEX.

THAT THEY JUST HAD IT.

THAT SEX WAS THIS
THING PEOPLE HAD,

LIKE A RASH, OR
A... A ROTTWEILER.

EVERYTHING STARTED
TO SEEM, LIKE...

PORNOGRAPHIC OR SOMETHING.

LIKE, MRS. KRYZANOWSKI HAS SEX.

SO DOES MR. KATIMSKI.

THEY BOTH HAVE SEX.

THEY COULD HAVE SEX
TOGETHER, LIKE RIGHT NOW.

I AM, LIKE, THE SICKEST PERSON.

ANYWAY, SO, YEAH, WE'RE
LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

MOM, IF YOU HAD THE FLU SHOT,

THEN HOW COME YOU'RE SICK?

HA HA HA! OK.

WE'LL SEE YOU FRIDAY.

I'M NOT SICK.

SOMETIMES THE FLU SHOT
MAKES YOU A LITTLE SICK.

THAT WAS HALLIE LOWENTHAL.

THEY ACCEPT.

GREAT.

WHO'S HALLIE LOWENTHAL?

SOMEONE IN DADDY'S COOKING CLASS

WHO WE INVITED TO
DINNER WITH HER FIANCÉ.

WHAT'S HER FIANCÉ'S NAME AGAIN?

UH, BRAD.

THAT IS SUCH A
PERFECT FIANCÉ NAME.

ISN'T IT?

ANGELA?

Angela: MOM, I'M NOT HUNGRY.

DAD, MOM SAYS I HAVE
TO HAVE A FLU SHOT.

DO I HAVE TO HAVE A FLU SHOT?

YOU KNOW, I KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

IT'S GONNA BE 10:00 AT NIGHT,

SHE'S GONNA BE POKING AROUND
IN THAT KITCHEN LIKE PRINCESS DI,

ASKING YOU TO
MAKE HER SOMETHING.

Angela: I HEARD THAT! AND
I WON'T BE HUNGRY LATER.

WELL, GOOD, BECAUSE WE'RE
NOT RUNNING A RESTAURANT.

LISA YAMAMOTO HAD A FLU SHOT.

AND IT WAS LIKE 3 INCHES LONG.

YOU KNOW, WE SAID
WE WANTED TO MEET

THIS JORDAN IF
THEY'RE GOING OUT.

ARE THEY? GOING OUT?

THEY'RE NOT GOING OUT.

I WOULD KNOW IF
THEY'RE GOING OUT.

DOESN'T HE DRIVE
HER HOME SOMETIMES?

WE DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHAT KIND OF A DRIVER HE IS.

NOT TO MENTION...

NOT TO MENTION...

WHAT ELSE WE CAN'T MENTION.

EXACTLY.

AND HE HAS A CAR. A CAR
HAS DOORS AND SEATS...

OH, GOD!

I MEAN, THEY MAY AS WELL
HAVE THEIR OWN APARTMENT.

SO DO I HAVE TO?

WE HAVE TO MEET HIM. WE
HAVE TO BE FIRM AND CONSISTENT.

GET A FLU SHOT!

NO! YES!

AHEM. YES.

HE AFFIRMED, FIRMLY.

UM, WHEN YOU SAID WHAT
ELSE THEY COULD BE DOING,

DID YOU MEAN LIKE FOREPLAY?

WHO'S THERE?

HEY.

HI.

Angela: IT'S A DREAM.

I'M HAVING A DREAM.

I'VE HAD THIS DREAM, ONLY
WITHOUT THE COLD CUTS.

WOW, FOOD.

WHAT... WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

IT'S LATE. IT'S REALLY...

MY PARENTS ARE RIGHT UPSTAIRS!

THEY ARE?

WELL, THEY LIVE HERE.

WELL, YOU SAID YOU
WANTED DO IT IN YOUR ROOM

WHILE YOUR PARENTS
WERE SLEEPIN'.

I WAS JOKING.

SERIOUSLY, YOU HAVE TO GO.

OK.

SO YOU KNOW THAT EMPTY
HOUSE ON CLOVER DALE?

SHH! WAIT A SECOND.

The one that's been
for sale, like, forever?

TINO FOUND A WAY TO GET IN
THROUGH THIS WINDOW IN THE BACK.

SO PEOPLE HAVE BEEN GOING THERE,

YOU KNOW, TO HAVE A PLACE...

TO GO.

SO YOU WANT TO?

FRIDAY NIGHT.

LIKE BREAKING AND ENTERING?

JUST...

ENTERING.

SO WE CAN...

YOU KNOW.

BE SOMEWHERE.

Patty: ANGELA!

MOM!

DIDN'T I PREDICT THIS?

DIDN'T I PREDICT THAT
THIS WOULD HAPPEN?

DIDN'T I TELL YOU
YOU'D BE HUNGRY LATER?

OH, YEAH. RIGHT.

MOM, UM, LISTEN...

LOOK, I'M NOT
TRYING TO INTERFERE.

BUT IT'S JUST THAT I
THINK IT'S IMPORTANT

THAT WE ALL EAT DINNER
TOGETHER, AS A FAMILY.

OH, NO, ME... ME, TOO. I AGREE.

ABSOLUTELY. AS A FAMILY.

OK.

WELL, FINISH UP WHATEVER IT IS

YOU'RE NIBBLING ON IN THERE

AND DON'T LEAVE A MESS
FOR ME TO CLEAN UP.

OH, AND DON'T FORGET WHAT
WE TALKED ABOUT TONIGHT,

ABOUT DADDY AND ME
MEETING YOUR FRIEND JORDAN.

OH... OH... I WON'T.

BUT... SWEETHEART, THERE'S
NOTHING TO BE EMBARRASSED ABOUT!

YOU LIKE THIS JORDAN. I
HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT.

WE JUST WANT TO MEET HIM!

OK.

SO YOU LIKE ME?

OH, SHUT UP.

I MEAN, YOUR MOTHER
SAYS YOU LIKE ME.

OH, SHUT UP!

SO...

FRIDAY NIGHT?

YEAH. RIGHT, THE HOUSE.

THERE ARE, LIKE, 8 BEDROOMS.

THAT MANY?

Angela: SHARON!

HI. Sharon: HI.

OH, I'M RETURNING YOUR
MOM'S CHAFING DISH,

AND YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO
TELL HER THANKS FROM MY MOM.

OK. SHE'S ABOUT TO
PICK ME UP ANY MINUTE

TO TAKE ME TO GET A FLU SHOT.

OOH, I HATE SHOTS.

WELL... SO...

YOU AND KYLE BROKE UP?

I MEAN, WAS THERE,
LIKE, A REASON?

I GUESS I'D HAVE TO
SAY... IT WAS MY BELIEFS.

I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE I
SHOULD GIVE UP MY BELIEFS

EVEN... EVEN FOR KYLE.

Angela: SO SHARON HAD BELIEFS.

SHARON HAD DECIDED
TO STAY A VIRGIN.

SO HOW DID YOU, LIKE, I...

YOU JUST TOLD HIM

THAT YOU DIDN'T
WANNA, YOU KNOW, LIKE,

HEH, HAVE, UM, SEX WITH HIM?

NO MATTER HOW MUCH
HE WAS, LIKE, EXPECTING IT?

OH, NO. OH, NO, WE HAD SEX.

I'M SAYING I HAD A BELIEF THAT HE WAS
BEING A BUTTHEAD, WHICH WAS TRUE.

YOU HAD, LIKE, INTERCOURSE?

LIKE, CONSTANTLY.

OK, COME ON. ANGELA'S NEXT.

I WAS LIKE, SO GET IT OVER WITH,

AND DR. SKOLNIK WAS
LIKE, I ALREADY DID.

SEE YOU OUTSIDE.

IT DOESN'T EVEN HURT THAT MUCH.

WELL, DON'T SAY
HELLO OR ANYTHING.

OH, HI, DR. SKOLNIK.

HELLO, ANGELA.

SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG.

YOU SEEM TO HAVE
BECOME 15 YEARS OLD.

SO DR. SKOLNICK, I
HAVE A QUESTION.

ABOUT, UM...

WELL, A MEDICAL QUESTION.

FOR A RESEARCH
PROJECT AT SCHOOL.

OH, SURE. WHAT'S THE QUESTION?

WELL, IT'S A QUESTION ABOUT...

PERCENTAGES.

OF WHAT'S NORMAL...

YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF
WHAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY DO.

I MEAN, PEOPLE MY AGE.

I JUST NEED TO SEE SOME...

STATISTICS.

SORRY.

ANGELA, LOOK, I THINK I KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO ASK,

AND AS SOMEBODY WHO HAS
KNOWN YOU FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW,

IF YOU NEED TO TALK ABOUT
ANYTHING, I'M ALWAYS HERE,

BUT AS YOUR
DOCTOR, I HAVE TO SAY,

AT THE RISK OF BEING INTRUSIVE,

I URGE YOU PLEASE,

USE A CONDOM AND A SPONGE.

NO, I DEFINITELY
SAID THIS FRIDAY.

Hallie: OH, LOOK!

NO, PATTY, THE POINT
IS, THEY'RE HERE.

THEY'RE IN OUR LIVING ROOM.

WELL, I... I CAN HOLD DINNER
FOR A LITTLE WHILE, BUT...

OK, OK.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT,
DON'T WORK TOO HARD.

I'LL SEE YOU AT 8:00.

HA HA! WELL, SOMEBODY
HAS TO TURN UP THE HEAT.

HEY, HEY!

WHY SIMMER WHEN YOU CAN BOIL?

SHE'S A TERRIBLE COOK,

BUT YOU MUST ALREADY KNOW
THAT AS HER COOKING TEACHER.

I MEAN, THAT'S WHY
SHE NEEDS YOU.

THAT'S NOT WHY I NEED HIM.

I NEED HIM 'CAUSE HE'S
GONNA MAKE US ALL RICH.

WHERE'S THE BATHROOM?

UH, IT'S JUST OUT
THERE TO YOUR RIGHT.

THANK YOU.

WHAT YOU MEAN I'M GONNA
MAKE US ALL... WHAT'D SHE MEAN?

Hallie: DON'T TELL HIM,
BRAD! I WANT TO TELL HIM!

IT'S THIS THING WE'VE
BEEN TALKING ABOUT.

SHUT UP, BRAD!

SHE WANTS TO OPEN A
RESTAURANT IN THE NEAR FUTURE,

AND SHE WANTS
YOU TO COOK FOR IT.

WHAT?

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

SHE WANTS TO OPEN A RESTAURANT?

WHY'D YOU TELL HIM?
OOH, I WANTED TO TELL HIM!

SO? WHAT'D YOU THINK?

SAY YES. SAY SOMETHING.

WELL, I... I DON'T
KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

LISTEN, LISTEN, I MAY
THROW LIKE A GIRL,

BUT I'M A FINANCIAL
WIZARD. REALLY, SERIOUSLY.

AND WITH BRADLEY'S
CONNECTIONS... SEE, HE'S LOADED.

SHE'S MARRYING ME FOR MY MONEY.

UH-HUH, I THOUGHT
YOU SOLD COMMERCIAL...

COMMERCIAL SPACE,
YEAH, I DO. I SELL SPACE.

YOU THINK I WANT TO
SELL SPACE MY WHOLE LIFE?

WELL, WE'RE NOT
SERIOUSLY DISCUSSING THIS.

OK. OK, WE'RE NOT, WE'RE NOT.

BUT IF WE WERE, COME ON!

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO...

PUT TOGETHER A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP,
MINIMIZE OUR PERSONAL RISK.

THAT'S PATTY.

I GUESS SHE FORGET HER KEY.

OH.

OH, BACK AT YOU.

IS ANGELA HERE?

ARE YOU JORDAN?

YEAH.

ARE YOU... HER DAD?

UH, YEAH.

YEAH.

YEAH.

SO, YOU GUYS ARE
GOING TO A PARTY?

IS THAT WHAT ANGELA SAID?

YOU MEAN YOU'RE NOT?

NO, WE ARE.

SO, DO YOU HAVE A MAJOR?

I DON'T THINK SO.

OH, YOU'D PROBABLY KNOW,

UM, IF YOU DID.

YEAH.

I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE GOTTEN,
LIKE, A LETTER OR SOMETHING.

Angela: DAD!

YEAH, THAT'S MY NAME.

Dad!

WELL, I MET HIM,

YOUR, UH, FRIEND.

HE SEEMS, YOU KNOW, UM...

WELL, I MEAN, WHAT DOES
MEETING SOMEBODY PROVE? RIGHT?

DAD, UM...

YOU WANT TO MEET ONE OF MY, UM,

COOKING STUDENTS AND HER FIANCÉ?

UM, NOT... NOT REALLY.

DAD, MAYBE I SHOULDN'T GO.

WHY?

BECAUSE. BECAUSE MOM'S NOT HOME,

AND SHE SAID YOU BOTH HAD
TO MEET HIM BEFORE I COULD...

OH, HONEY, NO, THAT'S OK.

UH, YOUR MOM WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE HOME BY NOW,

BUT SOMETHING CAME UP AT WORK.

NO, REALLY, IT'S OK.

THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE TIMES

WHEN YOUR MOTHER
AND I ARE NOT IN SYNC.

OH, 'CAUSE, I MEAN,
I'LL UNDERSTAND

IF YOU DON'T WANT ME TO GO.

HONEY, REALLY,

IT'S OK.

OH.

GREAT.

ARE YOU SURE WE WON'T
GO TO JAIL OR SOMETHING

IF THE COPS, LIKE, BURST IN?

THE COPS NEVER REALLY BURST IN.

THEY DON'T?

WHAT IF THE NEIGHBORS, LIKE,
REPORT US OR SOMETHING?

WELL, THEN WE'LL LEAVE.

IS THERE ANY MORE BEER?

Girl: ARE WE GOING UP?

Second girl: CYNTHIA,
THAT'S SO FUNNY!

SHE DOESN'T KNOW.

YEAH.

Angela.

THERE'S, LIKE, NO EMPTY
ROOMS RIGHT NOW, SO...

SO WHAT DO WE DO?

SEE, I WAS WRONG. THERE...

THERE'S ONLY, LIKE, 3 BEDROOMS.

OH.

SOMEONE TOLD ME
THERE WERE, LIKE, 8,

BUT...

THEY WERE WRONG.

RIGHT.

Angela: IT WAS EXACTLY LIKE WHEN I
WAS WAITING TO GET MY FLU SHOT,

ONLY I DIDN'T EVEN GET
A MAGAZINE TO READ.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

Rayanne: TINO, I'M COMING!

RAYANNE!

WOW, YOU'RE HERE?

WELL, YEAH! RAYANNE...

I'VE GOT TO GO! TINO'S WAITING
FOR ME, HE'S GIVING ME A LIFT.

NO, WAIT, RAYANNE...

NO, SERIOUSLY, HE'LL
LEAVE WITHOUT ME.

SO, YOU'RE WITH JORDAN?

THAT'S SO COOL! I'LL
SEE YOU TOMORROW!

KEEP YOUR SHIRT ON!

THERE'S AN EMPTY ROOM NOW, SO...

UM...

I'M KINDA WORRIED...

ABOUT RAYANNE.

WHAT ABOUT HER? I... I
THOUGHT I JUST SAW HER LEAVE.

EXACT... EXACTLY.

I MEAN... I MEAN, UM...

SEE... SEE, I KNOW HER.

I MEAN, I WAS THERE
WHEN SHE ALMOST ODed,

AND...

I JUST...

JUST NOW SHE LOOKED
PRETTY OUT OF IT. I THINK...

I... YOU KNOW, I JUST
THINK I SHOULD... I SHOULD...

SORRY. I SHOULD GO.

SO GO.

Graham: ARE YOU CRAZY?

Hallie: COME ON, ADMIT
IT, IT'S A GREAT IDEA!

I DIDN'T SAY IT WASN'T
A GREAT IDEA, I SAID...

HI! HI!

WHAT'S A GREAT IDEA?

BECAUSE, MY HAND
TO GOD, BRADLEY HERE

CAN FLIP THROUGH
HIS ROLODEX AND...

I AM SO SORRY, YOU MUST THINK

THAT I AM JUST THE RUDEST
PERSON ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET.

HARDLY, SINCE I
ACTUALLY HOLD THE TITLE.

HI.

HI. I... I... I'M SOR... I
REALLY HAD NO IDEA

I WOULD BE THIS
LATE. DON'T APOLOGIZE!

WE ATE EVERY SCRAP OF FOOD
AND LEFT LIKE 8 MILLION DISHES.

SHE'S KIDDING.

NO, IN FACT, THERE ARE
DISHES IN THERE WE GOT GREASY

JUST TO MESS WITH YOUR HEAD.

OH, HERE, HERE,

CATCH UP.

CHEERS. CHEERS.

MMM! SO, UM,
WHAT'S A GREAT IDEA?

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT
JORDAN CATALANO

WAS HERE AND I MISSED HIM!

OH, AND, HONEY, WE'RE
TALKIN' GORGEOUS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

I MISSED EVERYTHING!

WHAT IS HE LIKE?

OH, YOU KNOW...

NO! I DON'T KNOW!

THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING!

WELL, I DON'T KNOW.
HE'S A KID, YOU KNOW?

YOU'RE ASKING A
MAN... SORRY, SORRY...

TO DESCRIBE SOMEONE
WHEN I'M SITTING HERE?

HERE'S WHAT HE'S LIKE...

FAIRLY OUT OF IT,
NOT UNINTELLIGENT,

SORT OF, UM, STRAY PUPPY,

YOU KNOW, THE TYPE YOU'RE
ALWAYS TRYING TO EASE THEIR PAIN.

HE MAY EVEN BE A
HALFWAY DECENT PERSON,

BUT LET ME TELL YOU, TROUBLE!

WAY TOO GORGEOUS!

THANK YOU.

BYE! DRIVE SAFE!

BE CAREFUL.

SHE'S KINDA LOONEY, ISN'T SHE?

OH, SHE'S FUN.

THAT FIANCÉ IS SUCH A BRAD.

BIG TIME BRAD.

SO, UM, SHE'S NOT SERIOUS ABOUT
THIS RESTAURANT SCHEME, IS SHE?

OH, WHO KNOWS?

I KNOW I'M NOT GETTING
INVOLVED WITH IT.

MMM, SHE THINKS YOU ARE.

NO, NO, NO.

THAT'S JUST THE KIND
OF PERSON SHE IS.

I MEAN, DO YOU KNOW THE FAILURE
RATE FOR NEW RESTAURANTS?

IT'S LIKE THE RISKIEST
BUSINESS THERE IS.

PATTY, I JUST SAID
I WASN'T DOING IT.

OF COURSE, SOME NEW
RESTAURANTS MUST SUCCEED.

I MEAN, PEOPLE HAVE
TO EAT SOMEWHERE.

GRAHAM, IT WOULD BE GAMBLING
WITH WHAT PASSES AS OUR SAVINGS.

I MEAN, IN 3 YEARS,
ANGELA'S GONNA GO...

NEVER MIND. I'M JUST GOING
TO DROP THIS WHOLE SUBJECT.

WHAT, WITHOUT RUNNING
IT INTO THE GROUND? YOU?

VERY FUNNY.

MMM.

SO, ANGELA WENT
HOME SICK, I HEARD.

A REACTION TO A FLU
SHOT OR SOMETHING?

FAKE, FAKING.

SHE CAN'T FACE JORDAN CATALANO.

WHAT DID HE DO TO HER?

NOTHIN'. HE'S JUST MAD BECAUSE
SHE WON'T HAVE SEX WITH HIM.

YOU KNOW, IT'S SO TRAGIC

TO SEE HER MAKING
THIS WHOLE BIG DEAL

OVER THIS THING THAT'S,
LIKE, OVER IN, LIKE, 3 SECONDS.

WELL, I LIKE WHEN THEY
TAKE, LIKE, A REALLY LONG TIME.

WHO ARE YOU KIDDING?
YOU'VE NEVER EVEN DONE IT.

SO? NEITHER HAVE YOU!

WHAT I LIKE

IS WHEN THEY RUN THIS
ICE CUBE UP YOUR BODY

VERY, VERY SLOWLY,

UNTIL YOU THINK
YOU'LL LOSE YOUR MIND.

SOMEBODY SERIOUSLY
DID THAT? TO YOU?

MICKEY ROURKE DID IT.

SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT SHE'S,
LIKE, SCARED, TO HAVE SEX?

WHO KNOWS?

ALL I KNOW IS THAT
SHE'S HOT FOR HIM.

UM, MICKEY ROURKE?

DOES HE, LIKE, GO
TO THIS SCHOOL?

Woman on TV: BECAUSE INTIMACY
IS MORE THEN THE SEXUAL ACT.

INTIMACY FILLS EVERY
MOMENT OF YOUR DAY

WITH SENSUAL DELIGHT.

I'M DR. LINDA SHIELDS,

AND WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SHOW YOU

IS THE TRUE STORY...

Sharon: YEAH, YEAH, YEAH,
WE'VE ALL HEARD ABOUT INTIMACY.

AND THERE'S THIS WHOLE
BORING RELATIONSHIP STUFF.

OH, OK. HERE WE GO.

SHELLY AND MITCH, THEY
REALLY LOVE EACH OTHER,

BUT LATELY THEIR SEX HAS
BECOME ROUTINE AND MECHANICAL.

Angela: YOUR PARENTS
ACTUALLY WATCH THIS?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

THEY'RE HAD IT FOR, LIKE, YEARS.

YOU CAN KEEP IT
FOR A WHILE, THOUGH.

THEY WON'T EVEN NOTICE.

WHY WOULD I WANT TO KEEP IT?

I DON'T KNOW...

WHY WERE YOU ASKING
ME ALL THOSE QUESTIONS?

SO...

YOU AND JORDAN EVER...

Angela: THERE'S
THIS DIVIDING LINE

BETWEEN GIRLS WHO'VE HAD SEX

AND GIRLS WHO HAVEN'T.

AND ALL OF A SUDDEN
WE BOTH REALIZED

THAT WE WERE LOOKING
AT EACH OTHER ACROSS IT.

LOOK...

YOU'RE ALLOWED TO ASK ME THINGS.

WHAT THINGS?

SO DID YOU USE SOMETHING?

ANGELA, OF COURSE WE
DID! WE USED CONDOMS!

YOU HAVE TO! PROMISE ME YOU'LL MAKE
HIM WEAR A CONDOM IF YOU DECIDE TO DO IT.

OK!

LET'S STOP TALKING ABOUT IT.

SO HOW DID YOU, LIKE...

DECIDE, I MEAN...

LOOK, I TOLD KYLE

I WANTED TO WAIT
UNTIL I WAS READY.

AND THEN, ONE
NIGHT, I TOTALLY WAS.

THE ONLY STRANGE
THING IS THAT AFTER THAT,

HAVING SEX WAS,
LIKE... EXPECTED.

BECAUSE WE CAN'T, LIKE, GO BACK.

I MEAN,

IT KINDA STOPPED MATTERING

IF... LIKE, I WANTED TO.

Dr. Shields: SHELLEY AND MITCH
LEARN TO PROLONG THEIR PLEASURE

BY LINGERING OVER THE BASIC...

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.

OK, HERE'S WHERE
THEY FINALLY DO IT.

SO ARE YOU...

DIFFERENT AFTERWARDS?

THIS IS GONNA
SOUND STUPID, BUT...

AFTERWARD,

I LOOKED AT MYSELF
IN THE MIRROR,

JUST TO... JUST TO SEE
IF I LOOKED DIFFERENT.

DO YOU THINK I DO?

NO.

YOU KNOW, YOU
SHOULD TALK TO JORDAN.

BECAUSE...

YOU HAVE THIS... TENDENCY

TO SHUT PEOPLE OUT.

I KNOW.

Graham: HAS ANYONE
SEEN MY TENNIS SHOES?

UM, DAD,

WHERE'S THAT THING
THAT, UM, MOM TOLD ME

TO GIVE TO SHARON
TO GIVE TO CAMILLE?

UH, MAYBE WE SHOULD
CHECK YOUR ROOM AGAIN!

OK. OK.

Angela and Sharon: BYE.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

YEAH.

Sharon: HI.

UM...

DANIELLE TOOK MY BIKE
BECAUSE SHE HATES HERS,

AND I JUST... UM...

I'M SORRY.

WHAT?

I'M SORRY. I WAS GONNA ASK IF I
COULD BORROW YOUR BIKE, BUT...

FORGET IT. I'M
ALWAYS DOING THIS!

I'M ALWAYS ASKING
YOU FOR SOMETHING

THAT'S TOTALLY UNFAIR
FOR ME TO ASK YOU FOR.

IT'S LIKE A SICK HABIT.

AND JUST 'CAUSE YOU'RE POLITE
ABOUT IT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S RIGHT.

IT'S NOT. IT'S WRONG.

TOTALLY SELFISH OF ME, AND
I'LL NEVER DO IT AGAIN, OK?

OH! I'LL HAVE IT
BACK BY TONIGHT.

Dr. Shields: GUNTHER AND LIZ
LEARNED THAT NO HUMAN DESIRE

IS SHAMEFUL OR ABNORMAL.

I FOUND IT.

EXCUSE ME?

WHO'S YOUR FAVORITE COUPLE?

MINE'S GUNTHER AND LIZ.

EXCUSE... I...

I'VE NEVER SEEN
THIS TAPE BEFORE.

NOW, NOW, NOW, DON'T BE COY.

I'M SERIOUS!

WHY WOULD I GET
A TAPE LIKE THIS?

UH, BECAUSE OUR SEX LIFE HAS
BECOME ROUTINE AND MECHANICAL.

Dr. Shields: SOON, THEY
BEGAN TO TRUST EACH OTHER,

ENOUGH TO DIVULGE THEIR
MOST SECRET FANTASIES.

DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT?

THAT OUR SEX LIFE IS MECHANICAL?

OH, PATTY. WHOA!

THAT REALLY HURTS MY FEELINGS.

WHY DO YOU TAKE ME
SERIOUSLY WHEN I'M NOT SERIOUS?

I MEAN, HOW DO I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE SERIOUS ABOUT THESE DAYS?

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

I MEAN, ONE MINUTE YOU
DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE CLASS,

AND THE NEXT MINUTE
YOU'RE TEACHING IT,

NEXT THING I KNOW, YOU
WANT TO OPEN A RESTAURANT.

I DON'T WANT TO
OPEN A RESTAURANT!

WELL, THEN WHY THE
POINTED COMMENT

ABOUT THE MANY
RESTAURANTS THAT DO SUCCEED?

BECAUSE IT'S A FACT!
SOME OF THEM DO!

OH!

WHAT?

OH, WELL, YOU DON'T BELIEVE

THAT A RESTAURANT
THAT I COOKED FOR...

OH, HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?

THAT'S REALLY THE
PROBLEM, ISN'T IT?

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

Dr. Shields: HAVING SHARED THE MOST
SACRED LOVE A HUMAN BEING CAN KNOW,

SHELLEY AND MITCH
TALK INTIMATELY

OF THEIR SECRET HOPES,
THEIR FEARS, THEIR DREAMS,

EVERY MOMENT OF THEIR LIFE
BRINGING THEM CLOSER TOGETHER.

HI.

I'M SORRY ABOUT FRIDAY NIGHT.

I JUST HAD THIS
FLU SHOT, AND I...

QUIT LYING.

TINO TOLD ME.

RAYANNE GRAFF HAS BEEN
CLEAN FOR, LIKE, WEEKS!

SINCE THE NIGHT SHE ALMOST ODed.

RIGHT?

YES.

I MEAN, YOU CAN THINK
WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT ME,

I NEVER LIED.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

I LET YOU DRIVE MY CAR.

IT'S SO HARD TO EXPLAIN,

BECAUSE...

IT'S NOT GONNA SOUND
RIGHT, BECAUSE...

PART OF ME REALLY
WANTS TO, BUT...

THIS IS THE WHOLE REASON I DIDN'T
WANT TO START THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE!

WHY, 'CAUSE YOU KNEW
YOU WOULDN'T GET SEX?!

YOU'D JUST BE WASTING YOUR TIME?

'CAUSE YOU DON'T GET IT, OK?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO.

IT'S ACCEPTED, IT'S WHAT
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO.

UNLESS YOU'RE, LIKE, ABNORMAL.

OH...

HEY, PATTY, HAVE YOU SEEN MY...

I...

I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.

I JUST HAVE TO TURN THIS PERMISSION
SLIP IN FOR THE CHESS TOURNAMENT,

AND THEN GET A WHOLE
HALF DAY OFF NEXT WEEK.

HEY, CURLY, YOU'RE
ON MY BUS, RIGHT?

UM, YEAH. DID SOMEBODY
LEAVE THAT ON THE BUS?

NO, I'M JUST CARRYING
IT FOR MY HEALTH.

YOU KNOW WHO BELONGS TO IT?

ISN'T THAT ANGELA'S BACKPACK?

OH, YEAH, IT IS.

THANKS, CURLY.

MY PARENTS HAVE A VIBRATOR.
IT SOUNDS LIKE A LAWNMOWER.

I WISH I COULD GET AWAY
WITH BICYCLE SHORTS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU LET BRIAN
KRAKOW LOOK THROUGH MY BACKPACK.

I DIDN'T LET HIM.

HE WAS TRYING TO
CRAM IT IN HIS LOCKER

AND THE SEX TAPE FELL OUT.

IT'S ACTUALLY SHARON CHERSKI'S.

YEAH, RIGHT.

RICKY, I HAD SOMEONE...

TO BE WITH, YOU KNOW?

I KNOW. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE IT.

I FEEL SO STUPID.

MY ENTIRE RELATIONSHIP
WITH JORDAN CATALANO,

EVERY MINUTE OF IT
HAS COMPLETELY SUCKED,

AND NOW IT'S OVER.

I SHOULD HAVE JUST
HAD SEX WITH HIM.

WHY NOT? IT WOULD
HAVE BEEN SO SIMPLE.

BUT MAYBE IT SHOULDN'T
BE... SO SIMPLE.

I MEAN, NOT THAT I KNOW...

I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING
ABOUT OR ANYTHING,

'CAUSE I'VE NEVER, YOU KNOW,
EXPERIENCED THIS OR WHAT HAVE YOU,

BUT EVEN IF I DID MEET
THE PERFECT PERSON...

I JUST THINK IT SHOULD
BE LIKE A MIRACLE.

LIKE SEEING A COMET...

OR JUST FEELING LIKE
YOU'RE SEEING ONE.

SEEING THE OTHER
PERSON'S PERFECTNESS.

OR SOMETHING.

AND IF YOU DO IT BEFORE
YOU'RE EVEN READY,

HOW ARE YOU GONNA SEE ALL THAT?

NOT THAT I WOULD,
LIKE, KNOW OR ANYTHING.

WHAT YOU SAID...

THAT WAS, LIKE,

SO BEAUTIFUL.

BECAUSE THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT IT'S LIKE.

I KNOW WE DON'T,
LIKE, KNOW EACH OTHER

OR ANYTHING, BUT COULD I
JUST ASK YOU SOMETHING?

SURE.

DID YOU EVER WORK
AT BIG GUY BURGER?

YOU ALWAYS BUY THE
CAT NICER FOOD THAN I DO.

WE DELIVERED THE BROCHURES.

SO I THOUGHT I'D COME HOME

A LITTLE EARLIER, FOR A CHANGE.

HAVE A LITTLE TIME
BEFORE THE GIRLS GET HOME.

GRAHAM, I'VE BEEN THINKING...

I'VE BEEN THINKING, TOO.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

I GUESS I GOT CAUGHT UP IN...

BUT THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
WITH BEING CAUGHT UP, I MEAN...

NO, IT'S TOO BIG A RISK.

IT'D BE RISKING
OUR WHOLE FUTURE,

SO...

SO THAT'S IT.

BUT WHAT IF IT'S WORTH IT,

BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO HAVE,

YOU KNOW, WHAT
YOU WANT IN LIFE...

BUT I DO!

I DO HAVE EVERYTHING I WANT.

WELL, I MEAN, YOU KNOW,

NO ONE HAS EVERYTHING
THEY WANT, BUT...

BUT AS LONG AS WE
HAVE EACH OTHER...

WHILE NEW AGE MUSIC
SWELLS IN THE BACKGROUND.

SO DO YOU THINK
YOU ACTUALLY STORE

SEXUAL ENERGY BETWEEN YOUR TOES?

THE MACHINE'LL GET IT.

I WANT TO PICK UP.

WELL, THE TAPE IS PROBABLY FULL.

I'M THE ONLY PERSON
WHO EVER REWINDS IT.

OH, GOD, I DON'T WANT TO
TALK TO THOSE TERRIBLE PEOPLE.

WELL, HONEY, YOU KNOW IT
MIGHT BE HALLIE LOWENTHAL,

SHE WAS GOING TO TALK
TO A FRIEND OF HERS...

WELL, THEN, SHOULD YOU
PICK IT UP, MAYBE? I DON'T KNOW.

WELL, WHY, I'M NOT GONNA
GO INTO BUSINESS WITH HER.

WELL, I JUST, UM...

AHEM, ANYWAY,

IT'S TRUE, MOST
RESTAURANTS FAIL.

YEAH, BUT SOME OF THEM
HAVE TO SUCCEED, DON'T THEY?

I KNOW YOU THINK THINGS HAVE

GOTTEN OUT OF HAND AROUND HERE.

I MEAN, WITH ME. I
DON'T THINK THAT...

NO, THEY HAVE BEEN.

BUT I THINK,
ACTUALLY, IT'S GOOD.

I MEAN, I THINK
IT'S A GOOD THING.

NO, OH, SO DO I.

I MEAN, I MAY NOT KNOW
WHERE IT'S ALL GONNA LEAD...

I KNOW, BUT IT'LL WORK OUT.

I HAVE FAITH IN YOU.

AH, OH...

ARE YOU TIRED? YEAH.

I GOT, LIKE, NO
SLEEP LAST NIGHT.

YEAH, WELL...

I ACTUALLY HAVE LIKE
A MILLION THINGS I...

COULD BE DOING, TOO.

HI. IS, UH...

SHE'S UPSTAIRS,

PLAYING THAT SAME,
MUSHY, UPSETTING SONG

LIKE 50 TIMES IN A ROW.

OH, GREAT, WELL, HERE'S
HER STUPID BACKPACK.

YOU WOULD NOT
BELIEVE WHAT WAS IN IT.

NEVER MIND. FORGET I SAID THAT.

NOT TO MENTION THE FACT
THAT SHE STILL HAS MY BICYCLE.

SHE DOESN'T HAVE IT.

SHE LEFT IT AT
JORDAN CATALANO'S.

WHAT?!

WHAT DO YOU THINK, THAT I
DON'T, LIKE, NEED MY OWN BIKE

AND YOU CAN JUST, LIKE,
LEAVE IT ALL OVER TOWN?

I...

WELL, DON'T JUST TAKE IT.

YELL BACK AT ME.

I MEAN, DID SOMETHING...

I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY
SOMETHING HAPPENED.

NOTHING HAPPENED TO
ME PERSONALLY, I JUST...

I'M JUST KIND OF
SAD, THAT'S ALL,

ABOUT BOYS.

WHAT ABOUT BOYS?

JUST HOW THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT...

YOU KNOW, GETTING YOU
INTO BED OR SOMETHING.

I MEAN, DON'T THEY?

NOT ALL BOYS.

SO, IS THAT...

IS THAT, LIKE, A
PROBLEM YOU'RE HAVING?

MM-HMM.

I MEAN, I THINK ABOUT IT...

ALL THE TIME, BUT...

WAIT, YOU THINK
ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME?

BRIAN, YEAH! SHUT UP!

BOYS DON'T HAVE THE
MONOPOLY ON THINKING ABOUT IT!

THEY DON'T? NO.

OK. WELL...

I STILL WANT MY BIKE BACK.

SHE LEFT HER BIKE AT MY PLACE.

ACTUALLY, IT'S MY BIKE.

OH.

I DON'T NEED IT RIGHT
NOW. I'LL JUST LEAVE IT HERE,

IN CASE SHE NEEDS IT, YOU KNOW.

IS SHE HOME?

I'M NOT SURE.

I BROUGHT YOUR BIKE BACK.

OR WHOEVER'S IT IS.

SO ARE WE SUPPOSED
TO SAY SOMETHING?

LIKE, OFFICIAL, BECAUSE...

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY ANYTHING.

IT'S SORT OF LIKE WHEN YOU
WERE LETTING ME DRIVE YOUR CAR...

AND I LOVED IT, IT MADE
ME FEEL REALLY POWERFUL.

BUT ALSO REALLY TERRIFIED,

LIKE I WASN'T READY...

FOR THAT MUCH FREEDOM.

WELL...

YOU SHOULD KNOW...

I WON'T HOLD IT AGAINST YOU

IF YOUR NAME EVER COMES UP.

THANKS.

NO SWEAT.

BECAUSE IT... IT IS A BIG DEAL.

I MEAN, SEX MADE
YOUR WHOLE LIFE START,

AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT LIFE AS
LIKE A... A CIRCLE OR SOMETHING,

THEN SEX AND DEATH
ARE AT THE SAME...

LOOK, I'M NOT SAYING
THEY'RE THE SAME,

I MEAN, I'VE THOUGHT
ABOUT HAVING SEX WITH YOU,

AND, GOD, I'VE NEVER SERIOUSLY
THOUGHT ABOUT KILLING YOU...

OK!

OK.

AT LEAST...

YOU GOT IN SOME
DRIVING PRACTICE.

YEAH.

JUST, UH...

DON'T TAKE YOUR TURNS
TOO WIDE OR ANYTHING.

I'M SURE YOU WON'T.

Angela: SOMETIMES SOMEONE
SAYS SOMETHING REALLY SMALL...

AND IT JUST FITS RIGHT INTO
THIS EMPTY PLACE IN YOUR HEART.

YOUR HAIR...

IT'S REALLY SOFT.

LIKE IN THE BACK.

I'M REALLY GONNA MISS THAT.

YEAH?

WELL...

I GUESS THIS IS IT, SO...

GOOD-BYE.

BYE.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

Angela: PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY
HOW YOU SHOULD BE YOURSELF,

LIKE YOURSELF IS
THIS DEFINITE THING,

LIKE A TOASTER OR SOMETHING.

LIKE YOU CAN KNOW
WHAT IT IS, EVEN.

BUT EVERY SO OFTEN,

I'LL HAVE, LIKE... A MOMENT

WHEN JUST BEING MYSELF
IN MY LIFE, RIGHT WHERE I AM,

IS, LIKE, ENOUGH.
