01x02 - Making up for Lost Time

[bunniefuu]

Do you know who showed up at

your son's party last night?

Jill. And then they left together,

and pulled up outside the

house at 5:00 in the morning.

Last night was the first time

I saw her in months, okay?

We were just hanging

out. It's nothing serious.

Remember, you have had the

same dream for a long time:

sh**ting for "National Geographic."

So don't do something stupid, okay?

Oh. Mikey's back in town.

He'd like to see Stacey.

You know, I'll have to

ask if she's interested.

Do not let me fool around with him.

I have a boyfriend now.

I'm trying to be a good

girl for once in my life.

What about you, Tammy?

You seeing anybody?

Oh, no. I'm too,

um, busy with work and school.

So I don't really have time for that.

Last night was a mistake, Jill.

I haven't seen him in six

months. I was long overdue.

And I think that's

really sweet, you know,

because he's obviously

still in love with her.

Of course he's still in love with her,

and that's the f*cking problem.

Why are we starting

this thing back up again

if we know that our

futures aren't compatible?

I just wanna be with you now.

- Well, that doesn't make any sense.

- Why not?

Because I don't wanna

hurt you again! I'm sorry!

No! She's the friggin' drummer.

Will you just tell

her that writing lyrics

- Are you kidding me?

- isn't her thing? It's your thing.

You've been on the phone all morning.

- I need to make a call.

- Oh, you need to make a call?

I know. No, but that's what I'm saying.

Dad, can you tell Genie to

get off the phone, please?

Jesus, you sound like

you're back in junior high.

Why not just come out here, take a seat,

have a cup of coffee with your old man,

- and wait till she gets off?

- I need it for five minutes,

- and then she can have it back.

- What is so important

that she needs to get

off the phone for you?

Why do you think? He wants to call Jill.

No, I do not. I need to call Mikey.

Is this true about Jill? Because

I was under the understanding

- that that was over again?

- No, Dad.

He's called her every day this week

and leaves the most pathetic messages,

- and she never calls him back.

- Oh, my God.

Please tell me that

that is not true, James.

No, it would make you

sick to your stomach

to hear your first-born and

only son grovel like that.

You know what?

Forget it.

I don't need the phone.

Actually, Jimbo, hold up a second.

Now that I think about it,

Jill actually did call last night.

I thought maybe I mentioned it to you,

but it is entirely possible

that it slipped my mind.

Slipped your mind?

How does that happen?

Oh, I don't know. Maybe because

I have more important sh*t

to worry about, like paying the bills,

- checking my box scores.

- Really?

So you forgot to tell me,

or you chose not to tell me?

- I'm telling him now, aren't I?

- Yeah.

All right, Dad.

Thanks a lot.

- Greatest sister ever.

- Mm-hmm.

Great work, kid.

Are you still there?

Oh, my God. He is so pathetic.

[SPUTTERS]

[SIGHS]

I take it there's still no

news from law school, huh?

Trust me, if I heard, you'd know.

You know, if you don't get in,

they might just never tell you.

Did you ever think about that?

I'm gonna get in, okay?

Oh. You know what?

You left the car with

almost no gas in the tank so

I'm gonna add another five

bucks to what you owe me.

Fine, whatever. Just put it on my tab.

You know, you think I'm kidding,

but I am keeping track of all this sh*t.

And if and when you ever get a real job,

you're gonna start paying me back.

Okay, first of all,

I do have a real job.

- I f*cking rock.

- Oh, how are the benefits on that?

Shut up. And second of all, I told you

that the minute that

we get a record deal,

you are gonna get paid

back with interest.

Yeah, well, I won't hold my breath.

Wow. You're such an as*h*le.

Oh, well, I see you two

are getting along great.

- All right. I'm off to work.

- Mm, wait, Mommy.

Did you tell him yet?

I have not.

Tell me what?

Mommy has got a hot date tonight.

Is that true? You're going on a date?

Yeah. You know, I figured

it's time, you know?

Your father's been in and

out of a dozen relationships,

so I figured it's my turn.

Mom, his one-night stands do

not count as relationships.

- It's true.

- [SCOFFS]

My point exactly. I'm

entitled. Am I not?

Yeah, I mean, no one said you weren't.

In fact, I've been saying the opposite

for some months now, haven't I?

- Mm-hmm.

- It is absolutely time

for you to put yourself back out there.

So who's the lucky guy, huh?

Someone you met in the city?

Yeah, no. On the train.

See? [BEATS ON TABLE]

I told you going back to

work would be good for you.

So what's he do? He's like

a doctor, banker, lawyer?

You are not gonna like it, Nick.

Uh, why aren't I gonna like it?

[LAUGHING]

Oh, sh*t. Do I know

this guy or something?

God, and I can tell

from your face that I do.

- Who is it?

- [LAUGHING] I'm gonna give you a hint.

Ready? It's somebody famous.

I don't know anybody famous.

It's Louie Ross.

- BOTH: And you're gonna like it ♪

- Oh, sh*t.

I'm gonna see her tonight.

It's it's it's wrong.

[LAUGHING] I told you.

I told you he wasn't gonna approve.

- Of course I don't approve!

- [LAUGHING]

God, of all of the divorced

guys on Long Island,

you happen to choose

the one that I've known

since I'm in the first grade?

Okay, it's not your

place to approve, okay?

And he's a perfectly nice man, you know?

I mean, it's just dinner.

So don't go having a

full-blown conniption just yet.

Well, too late. The conniption,

as you so gracefully put it,

is already in my drawers.

- Wow.

- I'm out of here.

Nice. Lovely.

- What's your plan?

- You're looking at it.

And how was work this week?

Same old, same old.

I'm guessing you didn't take my advice.

What advice was that?

- To work on your accent.

- Oh. No.

Let me hear you say

something. Maybe I can help.

Just get out of my face, Ma.

Let me hear you say,

"Coffee, a soda, a daughter."

"Soda"? I don't say "soda" weird.

Why do I even bother talking

to you about this kind of stuff?

I'm just trying to be helpful.

You keep getting made fun of at work.

Why not try to improve yourself?

'Cause my accent is fine.

My boss is the one with the problem.

Oh, so you're gonna take

no responsibility in this.

- Oh, my God. Shut up, please!

- You know what?

There is nothing wrong with you

trying to improve your diction,

all right? You really wanna go

through life sounding like one of those

"deez, doze" dumb girls?

- You mean like you?

- Exactly.

And look where it got me.

And I never had the

opportunities you had.

But you know what? Do what you want.

You're gonna be the

[PHONE RINGING]

- Hello.

- Hey.

Jill, it's me, Jimmy.

Thank God, you called me back.

- I thought you were mad at me.

- Yeah, sorry about that.

My dad never gave me

the message. And I was

I was worried you were mad at me

or hated me or something when

I didn't hear from you all week.

I could never hate you.

I just, you know,

needed some time to myself

to figure some things out

before I called you back.

But I'm ready to talk now.

Okay. Great.

[EXHALES]

So you wanna go first, or

you want me to go first?

I'll go first. I wanna

talk about last weekend.

I'm sorry for the way that

I treated you at the bar.

I was not clear about what I wanted

or expected from you,

and it was not fair.

I'm sorry too. And I know it's

gonna be hard for both of us

when I leave, but

I don't know. After

seeing you last week,

I realized how much I

can't stand not seeing you.

I know, and I miss you too,

but I have some concerns.

What? That we don't have a future?

More that our futures just

don't line up. And, like,

it was so nice seeing you, Jimmy,

but I don't wanna do the whole, like,

serious relationship thing again, okay?

I don't want either one

of us to get hurt again.

Well and neither do I.

So [SIGHS]

Just tell me what you wanna

do, and I'll be cool with it.

You know, I think it's something

we need to discuss in person.

And my mom's gone for the day,

so if you wanna come over

To your house? Now? Y

yes. Yeah, yeah. [STAMMERING]

- I'll be right over.

Well, first of all,

You could take a shower here.

I can't.

I gotta get my stuff ready for

the barbecue later. You know that.

The f*cking barbecue?

I mean, come on. Didn't

you cancel that sh*t?

I didn't come here all f*cking

weekend to hang out with Pags,

- that's for sure.

- What do you want me to do, huh?

- Uninvite him?

- Yeah.

- [LAUGHS] Come on.

- Why the hell not?

I mean, I lied to my

boyfriend to be here.

Surely you could lie to him

and say you have other plans.

[LAUGHS] Oh, my God. Come

on. It's just a barbecue.

It's gonna be a few hours tops.

Besides, Tammy's gonna be there.

So you can hang out with her.

[CHUCKLES]

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

And why would Tammy be there?

Why wouldn't she be?

What? I saw her at the diner, and

I happened to mention it to her.

And she says she might

try to make it, so

[LAUGHS] What? Do you got

a problem with Tammy now?

[LAUGHS] No.

I guess I just figured

if I decided to stay

to spend the day with you, that

you'd wanna hang out with me, Mikey,

but you do what you think is best.

Of course I wanna hang out with you.

I just don't see why we can't do both.

Okay.

I'll see you there.

Well, you can see yourself out.

learn how to hit the ball?

Nick, what are your plans tonight?

Uh, I'm going over to

Mikey's. He's having a thing.

Then I don't know. Maybe we're

gonna go to the tavern after.

So you think you'd be

out pretty late then?

Yeah, I mean, not too late. Why?

Well, because I had a

slight change in plans.

So instead of going out,

I'm gonna cook at home.

So if you think it'd be too weird

to see Mr. Ross here later

I don't know maybe you

wanna stay out the night, like,

crash at your dad's.

Why? I mean, how late's dinner gonna go?

- Outside, one ball

- Ugh. No!

- sh*t. Really, Ma?

- What?

I just don't want you walking

in on something that, you know,

you would rather not see.

Okay, well now I'm seeing it.

I'm getting the visual, okay?

I really didn't need that. So thank you.

God where's Lizzie going, huh?

You send her off for the night as well?

She is staying at a friend's.

Maybe she's getting

lucky tonight as well.

What? "Lucky"? With who?

How is this the first I'm

hearing about any of this?

Why do you seem to think that

we need to check in with you

- about our sex lives?

- You both have sex lives?

Okay. Now I'm getting

sick to my stomach.

I'm out of here. Have a wonderful night.

Or maybe don't.

Yo, Pags. You still haven't told Stacey

about what's happening

next door, have you, huh?

Wait. Why do I get the

feeling I don't even wanna ask?

- [LAUGHS]

- Have you, um, talked to your father

- about his plans tonight?

- No. Why the hell would I?

Because something very

f*cked up is about to happen.

- What?

- Okay. What the hell is he talking about?

My mother is, uh

she's cooking dinner

for your father tonight,

at our house, next door.

He's probably there as we speak.

Yeah, I did just see

his car outside, so

What the f*ck is going on here?

You guys all know

something I don't know?

They're on a date, Stace.

Are you kidding me?

I know. It's disturbing, right?

No. It's not disturbing.

- It's f*cking disgusting.

- Hey, look.

He's probably sitting

at your table right now,

eating off your plates,

horndogging up to your mom.

You know, he's probably

got a hard-on right now too.

Hey. Watch your f*cking mouth.

That's my mother you're talking about.

Hey, I'm not talking about

your mother, all right?

I'm talking about Stacey's father.

Okay, well do me a favor and don't

say it about my father either.

But it's true. What if they're, like

what if you guys walk in

and they're, like, having sex

or something, like, in

the kitchen or, like

Tammy, what the f*ck?

Why would you even put that out there?

Because what? You don't think

that's on the agenda for tonight?

- I mean, they're right there.

- I mean, look. Just think of the picture.

Pags walks in to find Mr. Ross

Mrs. Pags on the kitchen table.

Jesus! Mikey, what the f*ck?

Now you're putting me in the room?

I can't get that f*cking

image out of my head now.

Yeah, honestly, even I'm starting

- to feel sick to stomach. Can we stop?

- Oh, my God.

They're just having dinner. That's it.

It's not like they're gonna

f*ck on the first date, right?

- Right?

- Well, my mom,

she did ask me to stay

at my dad's tonight.

But that doesn't mean anything, right?

[LAUGHTER]

- I'm sorry.

- What?

Pags, I'm sorry. Don't laugh.

- We shouldn't laugh.

- Oh, shut up!

So I got a confession to make.

[GROANS]

Relax.

I think I wanna quit my job.

What? What? Why? What happened?

'Cause I didn't go to

school to just answer phones

and get coffee all day.

And that's all I friggin' do

when I'm not getting

yelled at by my boss.

Yeah, well, what do you

think my job's gonna be like?

I'll just be carrying around

tripods and camera gear

and fetching lenses. And unlike you,

being in some swanky New York office,

- I'll be in 15 feet of snow.

- Oh, boo-hoo.

- "Boo-hoo"?

- At least they're not gonna be making fun

- of your accent up there.

- What?

Yeah. You know what they

call me? "Bridge and Tunnel."

They're like, "Oh,

hey, Bridge and Tunnel,

go get some coffee from the store."

"Oh, hey, B and T, could you

add 'tree' waters to that?"

- That's all I hear all friggin' day, Jimmy.

- Yeah, okay.

Who the f*ck are these

people making fun of you?

Is there somebody's a*s I need to kick?

- Give me names.

- No, it's just some girls

- in the department.

- Tell me who it is.

Their ring leader is this, like,

blonde b*tch from

Connecticut, my supervisor.

Ah, see, they're just, like,

so sophisticated and cool.

They all went to really good colleges.

I just feel like I can't

compete with them, you know?

- What?

- Yeah.

f*ck that bullshit. Of course you can.

You got a degree in design, right?

- From F.I.T.

- [LAUGHS]

That's a great f*cking school.

Who gives a sh*t what

these other b*tches say?

Honestly. I mean,

you just gotta stick

it out and outwork them,

'kay? But you can't quit.

Besides, I don't even

hear a f*cking accent.

- Yeah, neither do I.

- I don't know what the f*ck they're talking about.

- Thank you.

- Yeah.

- [MOANS SOFTLY]

whether we'll see you anymore.

scared her off a little.

- Why?

It's never gonna f*cking

happen, all right?

- You know what I gotta do?

- Hm?

'Cause I got another

interview coming up.

I got to stop by the café, talk to you,

and maybe you'll be my lucky charm.

- Hey.

- You wanna have some fun?

- Yeah.

- And that's my cue.

All right, Pags. I'm

gonna head out, okay?

Uh, you're more than welcome to stay

for "some fun," but I'm gonna go.

- Okay.

- Okay.

Huh.

Oh, hey. Tammy, hold up. Hold up.

enough of each other, huh?

Yeah. They're so cute, huh?

Oh, sh*t. Tammy, is that Mr. Ross's car?

[LAUGHS] Yeah, that's it.

You think that means he's still there?

I think there's a good chance that

that's exactly what that means.

Oh. Wanna go to the tavern?

k*ll a few hours, wait for him to leave?

Mm, I think you're on our

own for this one, buddy.

- [BEATS ON ROOF] But I love you.

- Wait. Really?

Not like that. Pags, have fun.

Where's Mr. Ross? His

car is still outside.

Did he walk home? Did he get too bombed?

- He's in the bathroom.

- Great. Look.

I don't wanna hear anything, okay?

No information, no details, no nothing.

So you don't wanna hear about what I saw

- when I walked in here tonight?

- [LAUGHS]

You two enjoy torturing me, don't you?

- It is kind of fun to watch you squirm.

- [LAUGHS]

And I think I got here just in time

because when I walked in,

she was already sitting on his lap

and her boots were off.

Okay. Didn't I just say

I don't wanna hear any details?

And you know what's even worse?

- I think she actually likes him.

- I do!

He's so charming.

And he even complimented my cooking,

which, you know, your father never did.

Oh. He complimented your cooking.

So when's the wedding?

You know what? I think I've had enough.

You two have a good night.

I'll see you tomorrow.

- Oh!

- Oh!

Oh-oh-oh! You gotta keep your

guard up at all times, kid.

you how happy I am to see you.

Come, take a seat with us. Join us.

is about to come on.

- You got channel nine on, right?

- Absolutely, yes. Come on, Nicky.

Come on; let's go. Whoa, whoa.

I wanna sit next to

your beautiful mother.

Huh? Come on.

- Right here.

- All right.

gonna really like this.

already started barking!

- Thank you. Thank you very much.

- That was so great.

Yeah. You know what?

I think I'm gonna head upstairs.

I got an early morning.

And I'm just gonna go up and,

I don't know, take a shower.

I'm just kind of feeling

like I need a shower.

Okay. It was good seeing you, Mr. Ross.

You too, Nicky boy.

We're gonna hang out,

me and you, just two of us.

- Okay.

- All right. Go get clean.

You know, I wrote that too.

- Wow.

- So great.

six months, though.

I know. Don't remind me.

We gotta enjoy these next three weeks.

Yeah, but what happens

if I get another job

that takes me someplace

else for another six months?

- Or another year?

- You go, 'cause that's what you should do.

And you shouldn't let

this interfere with that.

I don't even know what this is.

Okay, you want me to be clear?

I'm really loving hanging

out with you again

so much.

But I don't wanna do the whole

serious thing again, okay?

Let's just enjoy these next three weeks,

and when they're over,

we will embark on our separate paths.

Yeah, I like that.

And then after, when I go, what then?

Well, it's over.

You'll have your

freedom; I'll have mine.

I'll be living the glamorous

life of getting ragged on

by snotty b*tches in

New York in fashion.

And you will be living your dream,

working for "National Geographic."

[KISSING]

So do you think you can do that?

- What do you mean by "freedom"?

- Is that the only part that you heard?

No, no. I heard everything you said.

I'm just curious as to what you mean.

Okay.

When you leave,

this is over.

Why does it have to be over?

Ah, Jimmy, because it's just not

fair to make one person sit around,

- waiting for the other one to get back.

- Well, why why not?

Because, as much as I

want to be with you now,

- it's like, I still want my future!

- Your future?

What the f*ck does that mean? You

want to go out with other dudes?

N y you know what?

- Yeah, that's a part of it.

- What?

- It's not all of it, but that's a part of it.

- What? What?

I just don't wanna be tied to anyone;

I don't want to have, like,

a road map or a game plan.

I don't want to be beholden

to anyone not even you.

Let me get this real

f*ck' clear, right?

You wanna get back

together for three weeks,

knowing we're gonna f*cking

break up when I leave.

And then when I do leave, what? Do

you want to go out with other guys?

Like

[GROANS]

Like, the night I leave,

you might meet some guy.

[STAMMERS] And this

guy might ask you out

'cause you're f*cking gorgeous.

And you're you're gon

you're gonna go out with him.

You might even sleep with

him! And you want me to just

Hey! f*ck you!

That's not what this is

about! And hypothetically

you know what? Yeah, that could happen!

[GROANS]

[STAMMERING]

I'm sorry, Jill. I'm not

f*cking wired for that.

- I'm not.

- So you would rather not see me at all?

- Yeah.

- Is that what you're saying?

- Go ahead. Say it.

- Yeah. I I think so.

You're such a hypocrite.

- How so?

- 'Cause you talk all the time

about being this artist

and a f*cking dreamer

and you wanna go out

there and experience sh*t,

and you want me to wait here for you?

You wanna tie me down?

You don't want any of that freedom

for me, and that's not fair!

Don't be here when I get out.
