The Secret Life of the American Teenager (2008–2013): Season 3, Episode 20 - Moving in and Out - full transcript

Ashley's upset that Amy and Ricky are moving in together. Grant and Grace are enjoying their decision to have sex. Amy has a conversation with Adrian and soon the entire gang is getting competitive over sex. Ricky has a talk with Ben and suggest that they both "be men" and be honest with their significant others.

?

I'm not getting married
while I'm in high school.

Admit it.
You're one step away from being
in the same boat I'm in.

My mom's going out of town
with my dad tonight.

We have my house
all to ourselves.

I just wanna
make sure you get
your college applications in.

Amy wants to go to college.
I'm gonna work.

This is Toby,
your new study buddy.
Toby, this is Ashley.

If you want what I have,
then do what I'm gonna tell you
to do. Move in with Ricky.

Maybe instead of coffee,
we could have dinner
or something?

Are you, like, actually
turning me down for sex?



If we do it, you're gonna want
some kind of commitment.

Since you offered me
your help and advice today,

I'd like to return the favor.

I'd like you to meet
my girlfriend.

[laughing]

This place is perfect
for the two of you.

I don't think
that this is the place.

I withdraw
my proposal of marriage.

But I'm still open to having sex
when the time is right.

So?
I liked it.

I love you, Grace.

I love you, too.

Sorry that took so long.

No problem.



Now you don't
wanna get married.

You wanna live together.
I just wanna be with you.

So you want me
to move in here?

Together. We were gonna
get through this divorce

and Mom
moving out together.

Do you not know
what "together" means?

Would you lower your voice?
I just put John down.

Why would you live with him?
He's not gonna marry you.

Yeah, well, he's not gonna
marry you either,
so why do you care?

Why do I care?
Why do I care?

Because you're leaving
me here with Dad.

At one point,
that was just what you wanted--
to live with Dad.

Oh, so what?
You know, at one time,
you wanted to live with Ben.

No, you wanted to marry Ben.
You did marry Ben.

I went with you to the wedding.
I was a witness.
I supported you.

Yes, you did,
and now I'm hoping

you'll support me in this--
in me moving in with Ricky.

Well, I won't.

Can't you just be
an independent woman?

Do you have to have
a guy all the time?

Can't you live without a guy?
Yes, I can live
without a guy.

But I don't want to.
That's why I'm moving in
with Ricky.

No!
What do you mean,
"no," Ashley?

I want Ricky and John and me
to try and be a family.

You're a junior
in high school, and...

No, you can't do this!

You are not my mother.
Stop yelling at me.

You have friends!

Where's your study buddy?
Where's Toby? Call him.

Or call Griffin.
Spend some time with Griffin.

They didn't make me a promise
to get through this together.

We're through this!

I don't even know
what "this" is.

Everything's going fine
if you ask me.

You going somewhere?

I'm not going anywhere tonight.
I'm going tomorrow.

I'm moving in
with Ricky this weekend,
but you know that.

What are you taking with you?
What are you packing in the box?

Oh, it's mostly
just John's stuff
I'll be taking.

I don't have to take
everything at once.

Just gonna take a few things.
Just some clothes

and, uh, maybe my pillow
and my blanket.

Don't take any bed things.
Because?

Because I don't like
that you're taking bed things

for a bed, for a guy,
a guy you're not married to.

No bed things.
Dad--

Amy, you're my daughter.

You're too young to be
moving out of the house,

and you're way, way too young
to be moving in with a guy.

It's not just me
moving in with a guy.

It's my son John and me
moving in with his father
and my boyfriend.

I love Ricky.
I wanna be with him.

Love. You're too young
to know what love is.

Maybe I am too young.
I don't know.

But my situation
has made me older than my age,

and I think I'm in love.

I wanna do this,
and I'm doing this.
Mom said I could.

Yeah, well, your mom
never should've said you could
because it's not right.

It's just not right, Amy.
It's a bad, bad, bad idea.

And I'll tell you
something else--
Tell me anything you want, Dad,

because I am listening to you,
but you are not listening to me.

What do you wanna tell me?

Ricky's only doing this
because he doesn't
wanna marry you,

and he feels pressure
to marry you because Ben
is marrying Adrian.

Okay, one, I have feelings,

d that kind of hurts
my feelings, Dad.

Yeah, well, sometimes
the truth hurts, Amy.

And two,
Ricky wants to do this.

He said he wants
to live with me.

He wants to live with you?

Yes. John and me.

Amy, this has no chance
of working out.

You're gonna move in
and get all sexually involved
with this guy,

and then he's gonna cheat on you
and break your heart, and you're
gonna come crying back here.

So just save yourself
the trouble

and don't move in and get
sexually involved with him.

Don't do it.
Call me crazy, Dad,

but I don't think Ricky's
gonna cheat on me.

I think he's always wanted
somebody to love him,

and I love him
and so does John.

I think he's finally found
what he's always
been looking for.

And I'm happy.
I'm really happy.

Please, just let me
be happy, okay?

You're not gonna
be happy for long.

You're gonna get hurt.
I just don't want you
to get hurt.

I got hurt, and I'm over it.

I'm even grateful for it.

Please, Dad.
Please just say it's okay.

Please say you understand
why I'm doing this.

Please say
you hope it works out.

Say something hopeful
and encouraging, please.

I can't.

I can't say something
I don't mean.

It's not okay, Amy.
It's just not okay.

Not with me anyway.

# Let's fall in love #

Like I told you before,
it's no problem.

It's fine with me if Amy
moves in here.

I thought maybe you'd
change your mind.

No.

Okay. Well, good to know,

'cause she is moving in here.

Maybe it'll give you
and Amy time to figure out

if you really wanna be together
for the rest of your lives.

Maybe. Maybe we do,
and maybe we don't.

And if you don't,

if it doesn't work out
with her living here,

then keep in mind
if you part ways,

then part friends,
because you're parents.

That doesn't sound
exactly encouraging.

Maybe I better think
about this a while longer.

I'm not encouraging.
I'm not discouraging.

It's your decision--
yours and Amy's.

I got nothing
to do with this really.

Maybe you should.

This is your family's apartment,

so if you don't want us
living up here,

it makes you uncomfortable
in any way, just say so,

and I'll just tell Amy no.

Why would I be uncomfortable?

This is where
your grandparents lived.

I mean, what would
your grandparents think

if they were alive
and they knew that Amy and I

are living together here
and not married?

They were very tolerant--
my grandparents.

My parents, too,
for that matter.

They didn't really
judge other people.

Oh.

What do your parents think?

They're okay with it.

And my mom, Nora,
loves the idea.

She loves Amy and John.

And do you love Amy?

I...

Yeah.

I guess I kind of love Amy.

You guess.

I've never said that to her.

I don't wanna say that to her.

I don't think I'm ready
to say that to her.

But you're ready for her
to move in here?

Are you just doing this
because you don't wanna

get married to her?

Yes.

Oh, boy.

No. I mean,

I don't not want
to marry her.

If I had to get married
to someone right now,

today,
it would definitely be Amy.

But I don't feel I have to
get married to Amy right now.

And I can't.
I just can't.

You don't have to
live with her either
unless you want to.

Yeah, I do.
Unless you say no,

I really don't have any reason
that she can't live here.

Well, you don't need me
to give you a reason.

It's reason enough
if you're just not ready

to take that step--
moving in together.

That's not a reason.

Yeah, it is.

Maybe you're not ready
because, uh,

there's some other things
you wanna do before you make
a commitment like this.

Like?

Maybe...

Maybe you wanna
go to college.

I'm not going to college.

I told the counselor
I'm not going to college.

Oh.

Wait. Did she call you
or something?

Is that what you wanted
to talk to me about?

Uh, she thought maybe
I could talk to you.

As your boss.
You know, as a businessman.

But you didn't go to college.

That's why I was hesitant
to even bring it up.

I didn't go to college,

but I've surrounded myself
with people who went to college.

Bunny went to college.

She has a business degree,
and it's helped her a lot

with managing the butcher shop.

And if I'm not ready
to move in with Amy,

college would be
a good excuse.

No. Not necessarily.

But if you wanna go to college,
if you wanna think about it,

whether Amy's
living here or not,

then now is the time
to do something about it.

The company gives away
scholarship money every year,

and I'd love to see
some of that come to you.

All right.
I'll think about it.

Right now, I'm thinking
it's too late.

It's not too late to get in.
You've still got time.

No. I mean, it's too late
to use college as an excuse

to say no to Amy.

I really wish you talked to me
about this sooner.

Well, you're not really
going into this move

with the best attitude.

But I wish you luck.

I hope it works out.

Yeah. Thanks, Mr. Boykewich.

You know,
I think it's about time

you started
calling me Leo, huh?

I feel like I've got
two sons sometimes,

you
and both o
are in over your head.

[door closes]

You can say that again.

We're not moving in
until after the wedding,

but we wanna have
everything set up.

You know, the baby
could come early.

Lots of first babies
come early.

Or-- Or late.

Uh, so if we had to do that--

You know, if the baby
does come early,
like before the wedding,

we wanna have everything
ready for her.

Interesting.

Yeah, so we thought
that maybe you two

could come with us tonight
and help us pick out
baby furniture,

and then maybe we'll all go
grab a pizza or something.

Why don't we meet you after
you pick out the nursery stuff?

Yeah, we don't know anything
about nursery stuff.

And we don't really want to.
No, we don't really want to.

Look, someday you'll
be getting married,

and you'll be buying stuff
for your baby,

and it'll be
a learning experience
for you both.

I mean, it's even gonna be
a learning experience
for Adrian and me.

We'd love to have your help.
It'll be fun.

How can we help you
if we don't know
anything about it?

Yeah, and how can it be fun?
I mean, for us.

It might be fun
for you and Adrian,
but it would not be fun for us.

We'll meet you afterward.
Come on.
You guys are my best friends.

It's really so sweet of you
to feel that way, Ben.

But you have
a new best friend.
Adrian.

Come on. You two will
always be my best friends.

Adrian is just--

The mother of your baby
and your soon-to-be wife?

Yeah. But, guys,

that's not gonna change anything
between the three of us.

Yeah, it probably will.

It already has.
That's the way life is.

Things change.
Things are changing, fast.

We can't be a part of everything
in your life anymore, Ben.

But you can be
a part of this.

Do you have something
better to do tonight?

Actually, yes, we do.

What?

You know what.

Okay, I know what,

but you guys can do that
whenever you want.

No, we can't.
Alice's parents
are going out to dinner.

When they get home from dinner,
we'll meet you for pizza.

Come on.

This is gonna be
one of those things

that we tell our daughter about
when she's older, you know?

"You see that crib?

Henry and Alice helped us
pick that out for you."

Look, we feel badly
that you're getting married

and you're having a baby
and you're moving into a condo

and you're buying baby furniture
and you're not having sex.

But we are.

I don't mind not having sex.

Adrian and I have our entire
lifetimes to have sex, okay?

And you do, too.

I'm happy not having sex
with my soon-to-be wife

who's having our baby.

I mean, it's all good--

the move,
the wedding, the baby.

Even the picking out
of the baby furniture.

I'm ready for it all.
Bring it on.

[together]
Really?

Yeah. Absolutely.

Come on.
You know, we'll go
to the baby furniture store.

We'll grab a pizza,
and then I'll drop Adrian off,

and we'll all come over here,
and you guys
can spend the night,

and it'll be like nothing
every happened.

For the next four weeks,

it'll be like
nothing ever happened.

Are you sure you're going
to go through with all of this?

Pretty sure.

Morning.

Morning, Adrian.

I'm happy
you're still here.

I wanted to say good-bye,
but your dad and I
stayed up talking,

and I got to sleep late
and then I got up late.

I'm gonna be away for most
of the next four weeks,
you know.

Yeah, I know.
But then I'll be off
for almost four weeks.

So I can help with the move
and the wedding
and when the baby comes.

Aw, thanks, Mom.
I really appreciate that,

but I think everything's
under control.

Oh. All right.

Well, if you say so.

Sounds like a lot
of life-changing events to me,

but if you have
everything under control...

What are you
gonna be getting married in?

What are you gonna be wearing?
I don't want you
to end up like I did.

Uh, I don't know.
I was just gonna look
for something bridal.

In a maternity store?

Well, I can't be the first girl
who ever got married pregnant.

I'm sure there's something
out there for me.
Don't worry.

Hmm. Photographer?
Are you gonna have
a photographer at the wedding?

Oh, I should
get a photographer.

Yeah. Yeah,
I think you should.

Did you order the flowers?
Uh...

Look, I've got four weeks,
and you're making this
awfully complicated.

It's just a tiny little wedding.

It's your wedding,

and you're gonna want
a wedding dress

and a wedding cake
and a wedding photographer,

I'm pretty sure.

Have you and Ben talked
seriously about finances?

Have you talked about
how you're gonna deal
with financial matters?

Are you two going to open up
a joint checking account,

or are you gonna keep
your money separately?

Is there a prenup?

You think he wants a prenup?

I would think he does.
Yeah.

Uh, okay, look.

You just go on off to work.
You're starting
to stress me out.

Okay. I don't wanna
stress you out, but...

Are you sure you don't
wanna change your mind?

It's not too late,
you know.

You can even wait
until the baby is older.

Like when the baby is 16?

Look, I haven't
changed my mind,

and I'm not going
to change my mind.

Okay. But if you do--

I won't.

You know where to reach me.

Call me if you need me.
Okay.

I love you.
I love you, too.

[door opens, closes]

[sighs]

I hope we know
what we're doing.

Don't help me or anything.

I'll help you.
I'll give you some advice.

Don't move into
Ricky's apartment.

It's too soon,
and you're not ready.

No, you're not ready.

But you'll never be ready,
so just try not to hate me
for moving.

Fine. Don't listen to me.
But you're gonna be sorry.

No, I'm not gonna be sorry.

Fine.
Then just move out.

I am. Tonight.

[sighs]

There must be some way
to stop her from doing this.

Yeah. I've been thinking
about that.

Maybe ere is.

Well, like you always say,

the world is divided into things
that you can do something about

and things you can't
do anything about.

Well, if this is something
I can do something about,
then I'll do it.

But I don't know
what that is.

Is there something
you can do about it?

Maybe. I'll have to think
about it some more.

[car door closes]

[engine starts]

Hi.

Hi, Adrian.

So I guess you heard
Ben and I got a condo.

Yeah, I heard.
I'm really happy
that worked out.

Yeah. So we're just
gonna have a small wedding.

A nice small wedding.

It's much nicer
than having people there

who aren't really happy
we're getting married.

Hey, if you're
talking about me,

I'm happy
you're getting married.

I'm really happy
you're getting married.

If you weren't
getting married,

I probably wouldn't be
moving in with Ricky.

That was some good advice
you gave me. Thanks.

I gave you some
pretty good advice, too.

Yeah. Thanks.

So it's-- it's definite.

You're moving in with Ricky.

Yeah, it's definite.

I'm moving in tonight.

When are you and Ben
moving into the condo?

After the wedding.

Our parents really want us
to be married first, so...

So...

And how's Ricky doing?

Oh, he's fine.

He seems kind of,
uh, excited.

Oh, yeah,
I bet he is excited.

I mean,
if you two live together,

I assume he'll cave
on the issue of sex.

I mean, he'll have to
have sex with you.

I thought
you knew about that.

Yeah, I think that's safe
to assume that he'll wanna
have sex with me.

Mmm. It's scary, huh?

Scary?

Well, I mean,
after waiting all this time

the expectations
must really be building
for you and for him.

As they are for you and Ben.

Well, yeah.

But, of course,
I've had sex more than once,

and I really like sex,

and I'm very comfortable
being in a sexual relationship.

So is Ricky,
I imagine.

Oh, yeah.
Take it from me.

He is.
But, I mean,

I'm sure once you two
spend a few months

or even a year or two together
like we did,

things will be great
between you two, sexually.

Mmm. I'm sure.

I'm sure the same is true
for you and Ben.

Oh, of course.
I mean, I can tell
just from that one time.

Yeah,

but at least Ricky and I
won't be dealing with a newborn.

They're a lot of work.
A lot of work.

You're gonna be really tired
for a long, long time.

And with everything
you have going on--

the wedding,
the moving in,

having a baby,

trying to get used
to Ben sexually...

I don't know how
you're gonna do it.
I'll do it.

You'll have to.
You'll be a wife and a mother.

I wonder if sex will change
for you after you have the baby.

I mean, your hormones
just go crazy.

Oh, and then
there's breastfeeding.
You are gonna breastfeed, right?

Yeah. Think so.

Mmm.

It's just so wonderful
and weird all at the same time.

And just a little painful
starting out, as I remember.

Of course, not as painful
as childbirth,

but it doesn't take long
to forget that.

Of course, I wasn't trying
to have sex with a new husband
while I was trying to forget.

Okay. Okay.

You know more
about all the babies.

But I know way more
about sex.

Why is it that no matter
what steps we take
to try and be friends,

we always end up
in some stupid competition?

I don't know.
Maybe because it is
a competition.

But, hey, you know,
we're both winners here.

You're moving in with Ricky
over the butcher shop,

and I'm getting married to Ben,

whose family owns
the butcher shop.

So what you're saying
is you win.

We'll just have to see,
won't we?

What do you mean by that?

I mean, that either one of them
can still back out.

Ben or Ricky.

And not getting married
is bigger

and much worse
than not moving in.

So you can still lose.

Ben would never back out.

Now, Ricky might back out,
but not Ben.

You never know.

No. You never know.

Do you? Do you ever think
about backing out?

Do you?

I have no reason to back out.

Neither do I.

I'm not telling you anything.

Because one,
it's my personal business

and not something
I wanna discuss with anyone,

not even my own brother.

And two,
you need to get back out there
and get a girlfriend,

because you should be more
interested in your love life
than my love life.

Good advice.

Now, tell me where
I can go and get a girlfriend.

I can't date the women
I work with.

Well, maybe instead of always
asking me and Jack
to drop you off at work,

maybe you can take the bus.

Maybe you would meet
somebody on the bus.

I want someone who has a car.

I want someone
who can drive me around.

Well, you can keep dreaming
about finding a girl
who's gonna drive you around,

or you can take the bus
and meet the girl
of your dreams.

All right. I'm desperate.

I try it just
for a week or two.

And you and Jack
are not off the hook.

Well, good. That's good.
Good for you for trying.

Yeah, yeah.
[taps counter]

[door closes]

Good morning, honey.
Morning.

How are you?

I'm not good.

Mom, it's gonna be fine.

There's no way the same thing's
gonna happen to Jeff

that happened to his brother
and your husband and my dad.

There's no way.

He'll be fine.

And he's flying commercial.
He's not flying his own plane.

And God just wouldn't
do that a second time.

Yeah, well, it's not God
flying the commercial plane,
honey.

It's a human being,
and human beings make mistakes.

I just can't help
but worry about him.

I mean, even if
the plane doesn't crash,

he's still got four weeks
in a remote village in Africa.

Something could happen
to him.

But he's a doctor,

and he's the type of doctor
who likes to help people.

You knew that
when you married him.
Yeah, I did.

Well, maybe this is
a good opportunity
for you to get back out there.

Yeah, maybe.
But then I'd be out of the house
a lot when Grant's here,

and I hate the idea
of the two of you
having sex in your room.

That's what's keeping you
from having a life?

Just so you know, Grace,

the first time may be fun,

but the second time
may be no fun at all.

Whatever. All I'm saying

is that it's not sex
that'll keep a guy around.

It's a commitment

and a desire
to be with each other

and have a life together.

I know.
You told me before.

Anyway, my second time

was definitely
as good as my first time.

Maybe even better.

Well, then, the third time
may not be as fun.

Go to school.

Mom, he'll be fine.

Can Grant sleep over?

[scoffs]

Grace, tonight?

Well, it's just we spent
last weekend at his house, so...

Yeah. Yeah, I guess.
It's fine.

Thank you. Thank you.

And I'll let you know
about the third time
and the fourth time

and the fifth time
and the thousandth time.

[door closes]

[Girl]
Wait up!

I just-- I don't know
if Ricky is really happy
about this.

I mean, he's letting me
move in, but is that
what he really wants?

Who cares? Is this
what you really want?

This is what
you really wanted.

When did you change your mind?
Yeah, when did you
change your mind?

I didn't.
I'm just saying
maybe I should.

Okay, what's going on
with you?

I lost my confidence,
that's all.

How'd you do that?
I don't know.

Maybe I'm over-thinking things,

but what if we're not
sexually compatible?

What if I move in,
and we don't click?

You'll click.
Yeah, I'm sure
you'll click.

You never know.

What if I'm not as good
as Adrian was?

That's ridiculous?
Is it?

Uh, yeah. I mean,

who can compete
with Adrian sexually?

Don't even try.
Just be comfortable

with who you are
and what you have to offer.

Yeah, well, Madison,
aren't you just a little worried

that you won't live up
to Jack's expectations?

Uh, come on.
[chuckling]
No.

The whole school knows
that Grace thought it was

the greatest
sexual encounter ever.

Well, no, it wasn't.
Not for Jack.

And, you know,
Grace couldn't have been

nearly as comfortable
with Jack then as I am now.

Yeah, well,
they're both religious.

And I heard
that religious people

get all filled
with the Spirit
and have crazy sex.

[chuckles]
Well, then, I'll convert.

And don't forget,
your new friend Frank
has quite the reputation, too.

Doesn't matter to me.

I have no intentions
of doing anything with him

or any other guy
in high school.

I don't wanna get involved
with any competitions
regarding sex.

I don't care
what everyone else does.

Yeah, well, you've been
dating him for about a week.

Amy, you cannot let
your insecurities about sex
get the best of you.

You know, there's no such thing
as being good in bed
or bad in bed.

If two people
really love each other,
and it's the right time,

then it's the right time.

Oh, jeez. Is that
what Jack told you?

I think you should wait.

You wait.
I'm going to.

The more I hear,
the longer I'm waiting.

[sighs]

My sister really doesn't
want me to move in with him.

She says I promised her
I'd get her through

Mom and Dad splitting up,
that we'd get
each other through.

Yeah, well, of course Ashley
doesn't want you
to move in with Ricky,

and it has nothing to do with
your mom and dad splitting up.

Yeah, and after what
she did with Ricky,

or what she tried to do,
her opinion doesn't count.

I don't know.
She's still my sister.

- Are you trying to think
- [door opens]

of an excuse to get out
of moving in with Ricky?

Oh, scoot.
I have to talk to Jack.

Your friends don't like me?
Oh, no. They like you.

I just have to talk to you.
Oh, not today.

Why do you always wait
till game day to talk to me?

I wanna go to church.

Oh, okay.
I'll take you to church.

I wanna go before
we do anything more
than what we were doing.

All right.
All right?

Yeah. Is there
some reason why or--

I just heard that people who
are filled with the Holy Spirit

have better sex.

Keep in mind
that's probably coming
from the same people

that say you should wait
to have sex
until you're married.

Okay, well, then,
I guess that won't work.

Never mind.
Well, why won't it work?

I don't want the sex
that you had with Grace

to be better than the sex
you have with me.

Who cares about that?
So you're saying you don't think
it'd be as good.

No. Madison, I've forgotten
all about that.

Oh, I doubt it!

I think all consensual sex
is good

between two people
that are old enough
to make that decision.

Although, some sex
is better than other sex.

And what makes it better
is how they feel
about each other.

How you feel about me
and how I feel about you.

And I think you're gonna
feel better about me if I stop
putting the pressure on you.

Oh, my God,
my dad got to you.

Actually, it was Emily,
your stepmom.

Really?
Yeah.

Well, I'm sure my dad
put her up to it.

And you're not pressuring me
into anything.

Just the same,
I said we'd take our time.

Well, it's not just
your decision.

I know that.

I wanna do it.

When I'm ready.

Hey, look who's here.

Yeah. And I'll be back
next week

and the next and the next.

How are you?
I've missed you.

Have you?

Yes, I have.
How's Peter?

He's great.

And, uh,
how's his friend...

Uh, what's her name?

You mean Hayley?
Mmm.

Why do you ask?
I don't know.

At one time, you and Peter
thought it would be fun
if the four of us hung out.

Yeah, at one time.

Maybe we should
hang out tonight.

Maybe you and Peter and Hayley
could come over,

and we could all do
something together.
What?

But if you and Peter
don't want us

hanging around with you,
I completely understand.

Oh, no, no.
It-- It's just

I don't think it's a great idea
to bring Hayley around

knowing what we know
about her and Ricky.

Well, Amy's moving in
with Ricky,

so she's probably
not even gonna be there.

And even if she is,
who's gonna say anything?

Uh, you?

I didn't know Amy and Ricky
were moving in together.

Yeah.

Is this some sort of plan

to sabotage Amy moving in
with Ricky?

Oh, no.
I'm not interested in Ricky,

so why would I care
if Amy moves in with Ricky?

Because she won and you lost.

Well, it's not a competition.

It was.

Well, it's not anymore.

I admit,
I don't want her to leave
because she promised me

we'd get through Mom and Dad
splitting up together.

But she wants to leave,
so she's leaving.

So you and Peter and Hayley
are free to come over.

I would love
for you to come over.

See you.

Hi.

Hi.

Did Leo come by?
Yeah.

Oh. I thout maybe
you'd call.

You don't have bad news,
do you?

I can't imagine
that he'd change his mind.
Did he change his mind?

No, he didn't.

Did you change your mind?

No. Did you
change your mind?

No.

Great. Well, uh, then,

when John and I
leave the nursery,

we will swing by the house

and pick up our things
and come on over.

What?
Nothing.

I just hope
this all works out, Amy.

It'll all work out.

I hope so.
Yeah. Me, too.

I might have
changed my mind

about having sex right away.

We don't have to
have sex right away,
unless you want.

I might want, yeah.

And I thought
that's what you wanted.

What's going on?
Nothing. That's fine.

It's fine, what?
Yeah, that's fine.

You don't have to do anything
you don't wanna do, Amy.

Neither do you.
What does that mean?

That you don't have to let me
move in if you don't want to.

No. I want you to move in.

Don't you wanna move in?
Yeah, of course.

All right.
Well, I'll see you later.

[sighs]

her's just trying. to discourage
us from doing it again.

It's not gonna get worse.

And it wouldn't be
the second time.
It'd be the fourth.

Oh, yeah. I forgot.

I didn't.

So what do you wanna do first?

Well, I think we should start
by making out.

Oh, you mean before
I come back to your house

and have sex with you
in the room next to where
your mom is sleeping.

I wish we had our own place
like Adrian and Ben.

I don't wanna be Adrian and Ben
or Amy and Ricky.

I wanna be the opposite
of Adrian and Ben
and Amy and Ricky.

I think we've got
about nine years of college

before we'll
have our own place.

You think we're still
gonna want our own place

after nine years of college?

After nine years
of having sex?

Oh, yeah. I think so.

Do you think so?
Yeah.

As long as we don't make
the whole relationship about sex

and have interests together
outside of sex.

That's what my mother said.

[chuckles]
We do.

We have--
We have interests in common
outside of sex.

I don't think
we have to worry about it
even if we don't.

But we do.

Doesn't matter.
Not to me anyway.

Hi, guys.

Hi, Adrian.
Hi.

I'll pick you up
at 7:00.

We'll find
a common interest.

Common interest?

His mom said
our relationship will last

as long as we have interests
outside of sex.

You just started having sex.

Are you already worried about
the relationship not lasting?

I didn't say we had sex.
It's me.

I can tell you had sex.

What, is that why you're worried
the relationship won't last?

Because you gave him
what he wanted?

It's not just what he wanted.

I also wanted.

And I'm not worried.

Or I wasn't, anyway.

I don't know. Don't you
worry about the relationship
not lasting with Ben?

Why, 'cause Ben and I
are getting married,

'cause we're having a baby?
Well, yeah, and--

And because we're not
having sex?

We're going to have sex.
Of course.

Jeez.

Since you brought it up,

what if things aren't that great
between you two?

I mean, you only had sex
that one time.

Well, so what?

Ricky and Amy only had sex
that one time,

and they're
moving in together.

Look, Ben and I are great.

Okay? We're great together.
We make a really good team.

And so what if he's
only marrying me
because I'm having his baby?

That doesn't mean we won't
have great sex together.

Okay.
What's going on with you?

You know what?
I'll tell you what's
going on with me.

I used to be the sexiest girl
in this high school,

and now I don't know
if I am anymore.

I mean-- I mean,
I probably am.

You know, but...

Well, am I?

Of course.

I'm still sexy.

Yeah.

[scoffs]

But I can't--

I can't move into a condo
and get married

and have a baby
with Ben Boykewich
when I'm feeling this insecure.

I've never
felt this insecure.

You know who made me feel
this insecure? Amy.

You wanna know why?
Because she has turned

this whole thing
into some sort of competition
between the four of us.

Amy did that?

Don't you think
maybe you did that?

I mean, didn't you sort of
start the whole competition

when you had sex with Ben
that first time?

Maybe I did.

You know what?

I'm gonna get my game on,

and I'm gonna finish it.

[sighs]

So you're
going through with it?

You're gonna let Amy
move in with you?

Yeah, I am. I want Adrian
to move in with me.

What?

I do.
I don't wanna get married,

but I'm okay
with living together.

You just said Adrian.

No, I didn't.

Yeah, you did.
You said,

"I want Adrian
to move in with me."

Why would I say that?

Because you're thinking that.

You're thinking you'd like
Adrian to move in with you.

Not Amy, Adrian.
Don't be ridiculous.

You said it. It might've
been a Freudian slip,
but you said it.

I know what
a Freudian slip is.

It wasn't a Freudian slip.
I didn't say it.

I don't wanna live with Adrian.
Do you wanna live with Adrian?

Yes, I do.

I wanna marry her,
live with her,

and be a parent
to our daughter with her.

Can you say the same thing
about Amy?

No, I can't.

I don't wanna get married.

So sue me.

I'm 18. I haven't graduated
from high school,

and I wanna go to college.

I wanna graduate from college
before I get married.

Since when?
Since your dad suggested
I go to college.

Oh, okay, I see.

It's not enough for us
to compete with Adrian
and Amy and our children.

Now we gotta bring
my dad into it.

You're gonna do
what my dad wants you to do

even if
you don't wanna do it?

And you're gonna do
what your dad
doesn't want you to do

even if
you don't wanna do it?

There is no way
you wanna get married
and move into that condo.

There's not.
There's no way you want Amy
and John to move in with you.

I know you.
And I know you.

I'm gonna do
what I think is right.

And so am I.

And what--
what is that, huh?

What do you think is right?

I'm gonna be honest,
and I'm going to admit

that I changed my mind.

Well, I can't.

Okay? I--

I might want to,
but I can't.

Yes, you can.

Neither of us is ready
for a lifetime commitment.

You might have to make
a lifetime commitment
to the baby,

but you don't have to make
a lifetime commitment to Adrian.

Not right now.
And I know you don't want to.

We've gotta be men here, Ben.

We've gotta admit we made a mistake
and we wanna change our minds.

Uh-huh.

So you hate upsetting
Dad and Ashley so much

that you'd change your mind
about moving in with Ricky.
Yes.

I'm sure Ricky would understand
if I change my mind.

Oh, he probably would,

but not if you put it off
on Dad and Ashley.

Maybe if you
told him the truth.

What's going on, Amy?

Why are you really
changing your mind?

You stayed over
at Ricky's last weekend.

Did you have sex
when you spent the night
with Ricky last weekend?

Was it uncomfortable

or awkward or disappointing
in some way?

This is uncomfortable.

No. We didn't do anything.

All of a sudden,

I realized I was about
to have sex with a guy

who's had lots of sex,
and I may not be any good at it.

Wow.

So you think
that sex is something

that you can train for,
like the Olympics.

I think sex is probably better
if you have some...

technical expertise
or some practice at it.

Oh, Amy.

It wasn't fun at all
the first time.

And it couldn't have been Ricky.
It had to have been me.

And I haven't
done it since, so...

So that's why
you have to be very particular

about who you decide
to have sex with,

because it's
a learning experience.

And it can be a lot of fun
and make you feel

really close and happy,

or it can be embarrassing
and awkward

and make you feel empty
and miserable.

[whispering]
Yeah, more of that.
[blow lands]

And do you think
that Ricky loves you

the same way
that you love him?

I think so.

Well, he's never told you
that he loves you?

No.
I'm kind of surprised.

I'm not.
I'm not.

Mom, he's never had
anyone in his life

he could really love or trust,

and I think he's afraid
of getting that close to anyone,
even me.

Well, maybe he's just as afraid
to have sex with you
as you are to have sex with him.

He's had lots of sex.

Not with women he loves.
He loved Adrian.

Yeah, well, maybe he did,
but that didn't work out.

And sometimes things
don't work out.

[knocking]

Oh, hi. I wasn't sure
if you were coming over.

You never called
or texted or anything.

I wasn't coming over,

but I wanted to talk to you.

What, before Peter
and Hayley get here?

I didn't invite them.

I wanted to spend
some time with you.

Especially if Amy's moving out,

I thought that you might be,
you know, kind of lonely.

And while you say
you're okay

with being alone all the time,
I don't think you are.

I am.

Were you really
gonna have me

bring Hayley over
and hope that she somehow

revealed that she slept
with Ricky?

Well, I wouldn't hope for that.

But if it happened,
it wouldn't be the worst thing.

Amy should know.

No, she shouldn't.

Hayley didn't mean
anything to Ricky.

She went to the butcher shop
and conned him into
having sex with her.

He tried to turn her down.
At least that's what she says.

Yeah. Whatever.

He didn't turn her down,

and he's not gonna turn her
or another girl down

just because Amy's
living with him.

You don't know that,
and I don't know that.

We can't know that.

We can't know
what really happens
in people's bedrooms,

so we have to stay out of it.

And, Ashley, I'd be
really disappointed if you
didn't stay out of this one.

Just leave it alone, okay?

Let Amy and Ricky do
whatever they're going to do

or not do.

Just forget about him, okay?

I mean, I'm surprised

your sister's
still speaking to you
after you kissed Ricky

and after you showed up
at his apartment, in his bed.

You don't wanna cause her
any trouble

by pointing out that Ricky
slept with Hayley.

[Amy]
Who's Hayley?

Thanks for talking to her.

You're really good
at talking to the girls.

Well, I am a girl.
Yes, you are.

Well, you're doing okay.
They just still need
their mother.

I'm doing okay?

I drove all the way up here
to beg you to intervene.

Well, Amy and Ashley
both have to realize

that they can certainly
make their own decisions

about almost everything
at their age.

But they also
have to realize

that those decisions
have consequences,

immediate and otherwise.

Let me write that down.

If anyone knows that,
you know that.

You don't need
to write it down.

Do you miss me?
Sometimes.

Really?

This isn't
one of those times.

[sighs]

Good night, George.

Good night, Anne.

[door closes]

[sighs]

[exhales forcefully]

[chuckles]

[laughs]

Well, we didn't get
the baby bed assembled,

but I feel so much better.

So much better.

Mm-hmm?
Mm-hmm.

I-- Yeah. I do, too.
[laughs]

So you liked it?
Uh, yes, I liked it.

Told you it wouldn't
be too weird.

It was not weird at all.
Really.

And it was fun,
wasn't it?

Yes.

Feeling better
about getting married

and spending
the rest of your life
with me and your daughter?

Mm-hmm.
Much, much, much better.

Totally ready. No anxiety.

[chuckles]
Me, too.

We're gonna get through
all this.
Yeah, we will.

I love you, Benny.

I love you, Adrian.

Mmm, this is gonna be
so fun.

A little challenging
getting married
and having a baby this young.

But still, fun.

[chules]
Yeah.

Wow.

Yeah. Wow.

I still got it.
[laughing]

[chuckling]

[knocking]

Where have you been?
I was getting worried about you.

Where's John?

Where's all your stuff?

John is totally
off his schedule,

so I thought I'd bring him by
tomorrow night.

And I wanted to talk.

All right. About what?

I don't think I'm ready
to move in with you
just right yet.

Really?

Really. Why not?

Can we sit down?

Oh, yeah. Sit, please.

Sit anywhere you want.

I'm really nervous
about moving in with you.

It's a big step-- moving in.

Yes, it is, Amy.

And I'd want you
to be comfortable.

Completely comfortable.

And I'd want you
to be completely comfortable.

I'd want you to really want me
to be here with you.

I wouldn't want you to feel
as if I'm pushing you

to let me live with you
just because Adrian and Ben
are getting married.

But you are kind of doing that,
not that I'm not okay with that.

Are you?

Because I'm being
completely honest with you,

so I hope you can be
honest with me.

You want me
to be honest with you?

Completely honest?

Can you be completely honest?

'Cause I suspect
that you left out a few things

that you did
over those four weeks
when I was in New York,

and you kind of just went along
with what I wanted,

apparently out of guilt.

Just a guess.

So, I was thinking

maybe I could spend the night
over here every once in a while,

and then maybe build up

to staying on the weekends
and eventually move in,

if we're both comfortable
with that.

Sounds good.

And if, uh,
[chuckles]

if we find out that we like
having sex with each other.

Why wouldn't we like
having sex with each other?

I don't know.

We're gonna like
having sex with each other.

I hope so.

I know so.

Well, I guess we'll find out.

I guess we will.

Good night.

Wait. Wait.

Since we don't
have John tonight,

maybe you'd like
to find out tonight.

No, not tonight.

Maybe another night.

I love you, Amy.

Really?

Or are you just relieved
that I change my mind,
you're off the hook?

No.

Really.

I love you.

I love you, too, Ricky.

Good night.

[door closes]
