03x10 - Close to You

[bunniefuu]

[rock music playing]

[girl giggling]

Oh, please.

[Callie]
Oh, come on.

Hey, you know,
some of us have
to write a...

...paper.

[Callie]
Cut it out, okay? No.

Come on, I mean it.
I told you.

I don't want to do this.

Callie?

No! Oh, my God. Stop!
Stop!

-No! I said, stop!
-Callie?

-What the?
-Oh, my God.

-Bailey!
-Who the hell are you?

Get the hell off her!

-Bailey!
-You know what?

Get the hell out of here
or I'll k*ll you.

I swear to God,
I'll break your neck.

I swear to God.

Damn tease.

[door slams]

You okay?

Callie, are you okay?

Go away.

Callie.

Please, just go away.

[rock music playing on stereo]

Your mom called
about a half hour ago.

What'd you tell her?

Told her you were
in the shower again.

You said, "again"?

No, course not.

I thought again.

You know what, Bailey?
There's plenty of hot water left

if that's what
you're worried about, okay?

Yeah. That's what
I'm worried about.

Hey, Callie, wait a second.

Look. Okay. All right.
If it's about last night,

I'm really sorry. Okay?

The guy was just...

I don't know. You know, I mean,
I met him on the quad,

and we started talking
about music,

and he just came over
to play some stuff,

and I had no idea
he'd end up being--

Okay, what? Why are
you looking
at me like that?

What? I'm not looking
at you like anything.

Yeah, you're looking at me like
there's something wrong with me.

-No, I'm not.
-Yeah.

You've got, like, this whole
judgmental thing going on.

Callie, that is...

Okay.

Look, you obviously don't
want to talk about this.

No, I don't. Okay?

'Cause nothing
actually happened. All right?

And anyway, it's over.

Claudia?

Oh, hey, Stuart.

Check this out.

"I Claudia,
Advice to the Lovelorn"?

[laughs]
What is that?

This is a mock-up
of your new column.

I mean, it's all greeked in.

I had to use last year's
yearbook picture,

but we can take a new one
if you want.

Wait a minute.

I'm not...

You want me to write an advice
column to the lovelorn?

[chuckles]
I'm not a writer.

Well, sure you are.
I mean, I read those stories

you wrote in Medlock's class.

You read my homework
assignments?

Well, yeah. How else
am I gonna
find new blood?

And you're so insightful.

I mean, all that stuff about
your family, I wept.

Maybe.

Whatever. I mean, who am
I to be giving advice
to the lovelorn?

My one and only boyfriend
dumped me for my sister.

Did I see it coming? No.

Yeah, but-- But wait.
That means--

You see, that means
you have life experience.

Here. Wait.
I got a few sample letters.

Read them.

These people need you, Claudia.

You went to a lot of trouble.

Well, that's 'cause I can't
think of anyone

more perfect than you.

"I Claudia," huh?

It's kind of--

It's kind of cute. [scrubbing noises]

Sorry this is taking so long.

It's just these drawers, they've
been sticking for weeks.

I really think it was that roof
leak that caused it.

It's no big deal, really.

It's just a little elbow grease
and sandpaper.

Yeah.
I know. I have sandpaper too.

I just didn't know
how to do it exactly.

I mean, I know. I just
didn't want to,

you know, make a mistake.

Well, you might want
to take notes, then.

I know you're pretty serious
about your education.

You just want to see where
it's sticking and shave it

a little bit at a time.

See. See, me,
I would have sanded first

and asked questions later.

So you guys have been
working awfully hard lately.

[Sam mumbles affirmatively]
Got another job waiting.

I was supposed to start it
last week.

[Sam]
You're not complaining,
are you?

[Sam]
'Cause that would be
a definite first.

No.

It's just, I hardly
see you these days.

That's fairly smooth.

So this--? This new job,
is it something good?

[Sam mumbles affirmatively]

Listen, could you--? Is that the time?

Yeah. Why?

God, I've gotta start
wearing a watch.

I had no idea we were
up here so long.

I'm sorry.

Listen, I-I gotta go.

I'll pick
all this up tomorrow. Okay?

Okay.
Hey, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have asked you
to spend so much time.

Don't sweat it.

[Sam]
This was fun.

-[Sam] So tomorrow?
-Yeah.

That-- That'd be great.

So Tuesday.
That makes this the,

fourth day in a row
you've stopped by.

Yeah. So?
What are you saying?

You that unhappy to see me?

No.
[Charlie chuckles]

No. It's just this used to be
Xander's route.

That guy does some
amazing impressions.

[Charlie]
Have you ever heard him do
his Sylvester Stallone?

It's okay.

[chuckling]

Nice wrapping job.
What am I supposed to do?

Serve this off
the back of my truck?

Call it fettuccine flatbed?

You're right. I'm sorry.
What was I thinking?

Next time I'll have it wrapped
in aluminum foil swans.

So same time tomorrow?

We'll see.

[engine ignites]

What are you
in such a hurry for?

I have seven more runs to make.

Why?

I thought you might
want to fix that flat.

The-- Fix that...

...flat.

Yeah. Your right rear tire's
practically on the rim.

Oh, my God.
I can't believe I--

You got a spare?

No, no. We always take them out
to make more room for food.

[Charlie laughs]

You know,
I have a truck.

I could drive you
on the rest of your rounds.

I'm done here
for tonight anyway.

You don't want to do that.
It's another hour and a half.

I don't mind, really.

Might even be fun.

[thunder rumbling]

Julia!

Julia!
[door opens]

What?
What's your problem?

These letters are soaked,
and it's coming from your room.

That's...Ooh!

I thought those guys were
supposed to be fixing the roof.

The tarp--
They forgot to put the tarp on.
[rain pattering]

Oh, that-- That's great.

I mean, what kind of an idiot
forgets--

He's not an idiot.
I mean, maybe he didn't
think we needed it.

What? They've been saying
all day that it was gonna rain.

Well, maybe Sam
didn't see the news.

I mean, it's not
necessarily his fault.

Of course it's his fault.
He's the roofer. Duh.

Why are you defending him?

I am not defending him.

Yeah, you are.

No, I am not.

You are.
You are so weird.

I mean, it's like you have
a crush on him or something.

[Julia laughs]

A crush on him?
Shut up.

That is so-- That is
the stupidest thing I--

I can't believe you would--?

What?

Stuart was right.

I am pretty good at this.

You know what?
You know what?

I do not need this.
I am going back to my room.

Hope you've got a wet suit.

[jazz music playing on radio]

Hey, I love this song.

Hmm. Charlie Parker.

Family legend has it that
I was named after him.

So your dad named you
after a black man?

[laughs]

Don't get me wrong.
I still can't dance.

[laughs]

No one's perfect.

[Charlie chuckles]

Up here on the right.

What? Here?

What? Thought I lived
at the Fairmont?

No. I just--

You know what?

Forget it.
Let's drop it. Really.

[rain pattering]

So...

Speaking of dancing-- Were we speaking of dancing?

Yeah. A second ago you said--

[both chuckle]

Anyway, there's this party
I have to go to.

It's a Homeless Coalition thing.

It's no big deal or anything.

[Grace]
In fact, I wish I could
skip it myself.

When is it?

[metal clanging]

[rap music playing on stereo]

Get down.

What?

Scrootch down. Quick. Down.

[car engine revs, rain patters]

Yeah, man.

-Hey, what's up?
-Hey, man.

[excited chatter] [man]
Come on, baby.

[man]
I ain't play that, baby.
I don't play that.

You can get up now.

[sighs]

[sighs]

So...

Anyway,

this party is tomorrow night.

You free?

[chuckles]

[rain pattering]

Hey.

Hey.

Wh--? There.

My shoe.

You're going?

Yeah.

Bare-naked Ladies concert.

I'm meeting Sarah.

Don't you have to finish
your paper?

[Bailey]
I finished it.

Oh!

So I'll see you later.

Well, like, when?

I don't know.
Late probably.

Callie.

I'm sorry.

What? What's going on?

[sobs]
I'm just--

[sighs]

I'm just--
I don't want to be alone.

I know it's stupid 'cause
nothing's gonna happen, right?

Callie, it's--
It's just--

I'm meeting Sarah.

[Callie]
Right. Right.

I know you're gonna hate me,

but please don't go.

Bailey,

please stay.

[soft music playing]

You sure you don't want
anything?

Cup of coffee or something?

Coffee?

That would be--
No.

My heart's already--

If it weren't for this rib cage,
I'd be chasing it with a net.

[Charlie chuckles]

You're not--
That didn't freak you out?

I mean, even a little?
That drive-by thing?

It was just a couple of g*ng
kids checking each other out.

It happens every day.

Yeah. But you made us duck down.

Yeah, just to be
on the safe side.

The safe side?

That's, like,

nowhere near here.

Look, you made it clear you're not wild about
the neighborhood. So let's not--

No. I'm not slamming
where you live,

and I'm not saying that you
should move or anything.

I'm just saying that
if you want to be safe,

-you should--
-What?

Well, like,

[Charlie chuckles]
change that flimsy door lock.

And close your windows
when you're out.

You don't have to do this.

I'm not a damsel in distress.

I can--
I don't need your protection.

Don't worry.
I'm done.

Well...

I should get going.

Sure. Right.

So thanks for the driving.

Yeah. No problem.

And I'll see ya.

[door closes]

[door opens]

What time tomorrow night?

Eight o'clock.

Do you want me to walk you
to your car?

[chuckles]

[sighs]
I know what you're gonna say.

Yeah.

Look, I know you're mad.

Mad? No. Bailey,
mad is when
your car won't start.

Mad is when the alarm
doesn't go off
and you miss Trig.

-When you spend three hours
at a concert by yourself--
-Shush.

Don't shush me.

She's sleeping.

Okay? It took me hours to get
her to sleep as it is.

Who? Who are
we talking about?

Callie.

It took you hours
to get Callie to sleep?

[sighs]

Sarah, she was almost r*ped
last night.

Oh, my God.

She had some guy over,
some new guy.

And I came home, I heard
screaming from the bedroom,

so I ran in there,

and kind of intercepted.

Why didn't you tell me
about this yesterday?

She asked me not to.

And then tonight
when I was leaving,

I don't know, she started to do
this meltdown or something,

and there was, like,
no way I could leave.

[sighs]

[Bailey sighs]
Okay. Look, I'm sorry.

I'll make it up to you.
I promise.

Okay. Tomorrow, we can do
anything you want.

Okay? We can take a drive
out to Point Reyes,

spend the day,

or just drive to Sausalito and
get some dinner or something.

You know what, Bailey?

I can't believe
I'm about to say this.

But I think we should spend
some time with Callie.

[Julia]
It's not that bad, Charlie.

It just got some
of Claud's stuff wet.

Her ceiling is stained,
and your
floorboards could warp.

It was one rain storm,
and I caught most of it
with a bucket.

There he is.

Charlie,
just please be reasonable.

You see this tarp, Sam?

Yeah.

Something's wrong
with this picture?

Oh, no.

It rained last night.

Was there damage?

Not that much.

Claudia's ceiling needs patching
and repainting.

And if there's any buckling
in the attic floors--

[Sam]
I'll fix it.

And I'll only charge you
for materials.

Only charge me
for the materials?

Yeah. I'll cut you a break
'cause it was partly my fault.

-It was completely your fault.
-No.

Actually, your sister kept me
late doing some repairs.

Otherwise,
the tarp would have been on.

He's right, Charlie.
I asked him to work on my...

Something upstairs,
and that made him late for--

-For whatever--
-I don't give a damn.

The tarp should've been on.
It's part of the job.

It was after dark.

I'm not working up on the roof
after dark.

You should remember
to put it on before.

So, what are we gonna do
about this?

Sam's idea sounds fair.

I can tell you what I won't do.

I'm not paying
for any materials.

I'm not gonna pay
for a damn thing.

[Sam]
That's like 300 bucks worth
of work you're talking about.

[Charlie]
Is it? I'm sorry.

[Sam] Well, I'm not
working for free.

Then I'll get somebody else
to do it.

What? You gonna fire me?

Yeah. I guess I am.

Fine.

Fine.

I got other work I can do.

Fine? What do you mean, fine?
That's not fine.

You guys, can't--?
Can't you talk about this?

Can't you reach an agreement?

Charlie!

Sam!

Okay. One café latte

and one iced mocha thingy
coming right up.

So is this your first time out
since...?

[sighs]

Yeah.

It's gotta feel good to get out
of the apartment though?

I don't know, I guess.

I can't really...

I don't want to
hang around school,

you know,
because if I ran into him...

I know it's--
It's kind of cliché,

but you shouldn't let this
eat at you.

You ought to talk to somebody
about it.

You mean,
like some professional type?

Yeah. Or even some girlfriend.

I don't really have many
women friends.

You know, I always did better
with guys.

You can talk to me.

I know we don't know each other
that well, but...

I can't.

Okay.

Well, you can talk to Bailey.

I know he really cares
about you.

You know, and he'd be

really great and sensitive.

He's not like other guys.
You know that.

Yeah.

Just kind of proves

that not all guys
are caveman types, you know?

He told me that he wants to go
to the police station with you

if you decide to report this.

[Sarah]
How many guys would do that?

Okay. Here we go.

Thank you.

So, what are we talking about?

Just that not all guys
are bad.

Some are kind of worth trusting.

[chuckles]

You, for instance.

Right?

Right.

[Julia]
So...

Charlie, listen, good news.

I talked to Sam, and he
totally changed his mind.

I mean, that he said
he'll do the work and--

And for free and that he's
really sorry, and--

Really?

That's not how he sounded to me.

Well, you didn't hear it
this time.

'Cause after I talked it
through and made him
see it our way,

you know, he just--
He said

that he kind of didn't want to
admit it at the time,

but he knew he was wrong. And
now he wants to make it right.

Okay.

Then, good.

'Cause he should.

Well, he is, 'cause,

he's not a bad guy.

Wow.

You look nice.

It's a rental.

Can you tell?

Not at all.

[slow jazz music playing]

Hey.

Julia.

So here's what happened.

After you left,

Charlie thought about it and--

And he realized that it was
totally unfair to expect you

to work for--
You know, for nothing.

How'd you find me here?

I called your office.
They said--

Anyways here,

300.

Look at that.

So we're set?

Yep. I'll start up
again tomorrow.

Wow. That's...

You coming back to--
To the house, that's great.

It's great.
Isn't it great?

Sure.

Yeah.

[band playing slow jazz music]

[indistinct chatter]

But we've also got
to be able to say,

"Here's a place to live and
here's help finding a job."

Right. Right.

Hey.

You look nice.

You too.

I'm sorry. I was saying.

[laughs]

Grace, I am sold.

Now, talk to your boyfriend.

Oh, he's--
This isn't my boyfriend.

Well, I'll call you tomorrow.

Good night.

Sorry about that.

Don't worry about it.

Hey, you.

Hey, good turnout.

Very.

Marcia, Charlie.
Charlie, Marcia.

You're lucky.
I can't pay my boyfriend

to attend another one
of these events.

My turn.

We're not dating.

Too bad.

Do you want to grab some food
or something?

I could eat.

You'd think people would have
more to care about

than who I bring to a party.

You know what? As long
as they're talking...

[Grace laughs]

I thought you said
you couldn't dance.

I lied.

This...

This kind of thing
isn't exactly my sport.

I know.

You hate having
somebody else lead.

[Grace laughs]

Ha-ha.

[slow jazz music playing]

Can you believe this?
Can you believe this is me?

I'm, like, some stalker.

I can't believe you'd act this
way over a roofer.

Contractor.
General contractor.

He does everything.

I think about him all the time.

I dream about him.
The hokiest dreams,

like running through fields
together.

I mean, please.

And last period in Calc,
I wrote his name all over
my assignment

without even knowing it.
"Sam, Sam, Sam, Sam."

"Sam, I am."
Who are you?

Julia, do you really,

really want to go out
with the roof guy?

[in unison]
Contractor!

Excuse me, you're not exactly
gonna First Lady

dating my brother.

I'm sorry.

-[Julia sighs]
-Look,

forget it.
I totally understand.

You know, sometimes love
can make you weird.

Tell me about it. I spent $300
of my own money

to keep him on the job.

What?

Don't ask.

[Claudia]
Stuart, no, I told you,

I'm drying them
in the microwave.

No, I don't need you
to come over
here and get them.

Bye.
[phone beeps off]

Going somewhere?

Went. Last night.

In a tux?

How did I miss this?

[Charlie]
Beats me.

Grace had this,
fundraiser thing,

and she wanted somebody
to go with her. So...

Grace.

The same Grace that called you,
"a stupid white rich kid"

in the newspaper?

That Grace?

She didn't say stupid.

Is there something going on
with you two?

With me and Grace?

No.

-Why?
-Well, I don't know.

It's just--

It's just the way you smiled
just then

when I said that about her.

I didn't smile.

Yes, you did.

What about Kirsten?

Oh, man, Claudia, it's not--

Grace is just a friend.

Believe me.

Really?

'Cause you really did smile
just then.

And, well, I mean,
I'm getting pretty good

at spotting this
kind of stuff, so--

Look, Claud, she's just
a friend, and that's it.

Okay?

[Charlie]
Trust me.

It's like,

after everything, that's kind of
what I need right now.

And it feels good.

So if you're picking up on
something, that's all it is.

I promise.

So where did this event
take place?

In my room.

Your bedroom?

Well, it's,

-It's--
-It's shared off-campus housing.

Your room is your bedroom.

Are you her boyfriend?

No.

I'm just her roommate.

When the r*pe occurred--?

Well, it wasn't--

I mean, it wasn't a r*pe.

No. I mean, it almost was.
He was going to r*pe me,

you know.
But then Bailey walked in

and he stopped him.

How do you know, Callie?

What?

How do you know that he was
going to r*pe you?

Well, he--

He...

Officer, I was there.

The guy had his pants down.

He was pinning her
to the floor,
and she was screaming.

Believe me,
he was gonna r*pe her.

You don't believe me.

Well, I'm just trying to get
the facts down.

I don't want to
do this, Bailey.
Can we please j--?

Look, why don't you
just ask me
your questions, okay?

'Cause I was there too.

Or better yet,
why don't you bring him in

and ask him what
happened. Just leave her
alone for now.

I promise I won't distract you
on the job anymore.

I just-- I made these,
kind of a welcome back.

Walnuts. I'm deathly
allergic to walnuts.

Great. Now, you're gonna
think I'm trying to k*ll you.

Hey, listen, I want
you to know

that I think it's smart
you came back.

And I know the extra work's
gonna cost you a few bucks--

You want one of these?
They're really good.

But I'm gonna
recommended you now.

I'm gonna tell people that
you're a good businessman.

And a decent guy.

So it'll work out
for everybody.

Right.

That's very funky.

-You said he--
-I know.

I know. I just--

He's so stubborn, and it seems
so stupid the two of you not--

That money was--?
That was your money?

Your brother had--?
Had nothing to do with it?

Why would you do
something like that?

Because...

Because it's...

Look, it was kind of my fault.

And you-- You should be here
and do the job and get paid.

And what difference
does it make
whose money it is?

It's money.

You people are
a little strange.
You know that?

Don't I even get a thank you?

Thank you.

[Sam]
Dan, did you pick up those
tenpenny nails
that I asked you to?

And I figured I had
two choices: "Hey, Charlie,
can you come down

to this neighborhood
that you love so much

cause I got halfway through
installing this new lock

and I couldn't figure
out how to finish?"

And that didn't
sound great, frankly.

God, this is--

But, then there would
have been, "Hey, Charlie,
guess what?

I spent the entire night
without a lock on my door."

And I could just hear you
reading me the riot act, so...

[upbeat alternative
music playing]

You know what
I was thinking
about before?

How something good could just
drop into my lap

and I'd be completely oblivious.

Something's gonna be difficult
or painful, I'm there.

Like a magnet. I mean,
look what I do for a living. But the happy things...

Do you ever do that?

Do you ever--?

Something,

somebody is right there,

right in front of you,
and you don't--
[Door knob falls]

I'm sorry. Sorry.

Oh, what the hell.

[Grace]
Oh, huh.

I guess--

No. No, listen, you didn't.

-It's me. It's all right.
-God.

That didn't happen,
okay?

Is that--? Can we--?

Yeah. Yeah.

I'll, I'll just--

I'll be done here
in a little bit.

[sighs]

Yeah.

Okay.

[Callie]
No, I understand.

Okay. Thank you.

They brought him in
to talk to him,

you know, and surprise
surprise, he said
it was my fault.

Well, they don't--

He said I brought him up
to my apartment.

I came onto him,

and we were
gonna do it,
you know,

but then Bailey walked in.

I walked in and what?

[Callie]
He said that I--

That something was going on
between you and me,

and that when you
walked in, I got scared,

like I was cheating on you
or something.

So that's why I had
to make up
the whole story

about him almost raping me.

[scoffs]

That's crazy.
I mean, it's--

No one is gonna believe that.

Okay? I mean, Bailey will
just tell them you're
just roommates.

And he has a girlfriend.
And there's nothing going on

between you two, so he'll just
explain what happened.

Of course I will.

I mean,

I know I kind of go out
with a lot of guys and stuff,

and I pick up guys,

and I dress a certain way.

'Cause, I don't know.

I mean, I like
having guys look at me.

I like feeling sexy, but that--

That doesn't mean...

This time I didn't do anything.

-I swear to God.
-Callie.

I can't go back there, Bailey.

I just, I can't.

-God.
-Hey.

Nobody's gonna make you do
anything you don't want to do.

Okay?

Okay?

[Callie]
Promise?

[Bailey]
I promise.

Bailey?

Hi.

Yeah. I was just,
you know, browsing.

In the woman's issues section?

Hey, I'm in college now,
remember?

And I read.

What are you doing here?

I was just checking up
on the competition.

I'm writing an advice column
for The Sampler.

What kind of advice?

You know, love stuff.

Hey, don't laugh.

Turns out I'm
actually pretty
good at this.

I've got insight.

I can pretty much always tell
when something's going on.

Like with

you.

What about me?

Well, for starters,

you're acting weird.

I'm not acting weird.

Weird how? Confused weird.

Secretive weird.
Weird like when you were

falling-in-love-
with-Sarah weird.

[Bailey chuckles]

You're weird.

It's the dimples.

-What?
-Your dimples.

When something's going on,

they pulse.

No. You're nuts.

Wow.

Look at those dimples go.

So how's she doing, Callie?

Still kind of upset.

Spent the morning with her.
That seemed to help.

Oh, that's good.

Yeah.

So, I was--
I was thinking about Callie.

You know, I was thinking
that it's--

It's really great that she
has you to help her with this.

You know, I mean,
it was kind of
my suggestion, so...

But I don't know.

What?

I don't know. I just--

I just think maybe she relies
on you a little too much.

Aha.

I mean-- Well, I don't mean

that you should not be there
for her, you know.

'Cause obviously,
I mean, you're--

You're really
great and helpful,
you know.

But it's not like you know
about handling this stuff.

And there are
people who do.

I mean, not that you're not
doing exactly the right thing.

No, I think you're right.

-You do?
-Yeah.

She...

I shouldn't be
the only person
in her life.

You know,
there should be
some kind of--

I don't know.

Support group or something.

Exactly. Yeah.

I could look into that.

Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, that would--

That would be--

Yeah, I think that could help.

Yeah.

Well, what do you think?

They're great.

And my favorite one--
My favorite one:

"Go for it. Life's too short.

Force him to notice you.
Spill your guts,

and at least then you'll know
where you stand."

I mean, that's--
That's really good advice.

But do you think
maybe you could
expand on that

with some more ideas because,

you see, that's not so easy
for some people.

Well, Stuart, I mean,
that's up to the individual.

See, the point is,
just don't waste time.

If you like someone,
just say so.

I mean, what's the worst
that could happen?

I don't know.

So, you really like?

Like? No.

More like love.

Totally.

Cool.

Well, I guess
you were right.

I am pretty insightful.

I mean,
it's gotten to the point

where all I have to do
is look at someone

and I know exactly
what's going on. It's a gift.

Anyway, keep those letters
and cards coming.

See ya.

See ya.
[bell ringing]

[pop music playing]

[knock at window]

Listen, I'm kind of in the
middle of something here, so--

No. Just--
Just give me a second.

Listen I've been thinking
about what happened here

the last few days,
especially yesterday. And I don't feel
all that good
about the $300.

So,

here.

It's yours.

The money shouldn't come
out of your pocket.

Take it or I'm gonna feel
like I'm ripping you off

-or something.
-Forget it.

No. No.

Now, how about half?
Okay?

That's fair. I mean,
that's what your brother and I

should have done
to begin with.

Please take it.

Okay. Half.

Hey.

You're not strange.

I shouldn't have said that.

That was out of line.

And I should have
said thank you

without you having
to ask for it.

Really? Yeah.

'Cause you're sweet, Julia.

You--

You are.

And that was a nice thing
you did for me.

So

thank you.

You're welcome.

Don't tell me.
You were out sightseeing?

You didn't stop by today

and you didn't return
any of my calls.

Do you think maybe
that could mean something?

Can I?

Sure, yeah, come on in.

I can pour you
some Comfy Mint Curl-up Tea,

and we can sit here.

And you can tell me
that I am attractive,

and that one day
I'll meet the right guy.

And I'll nod
and say thank you.

And want to sh**t myself
in the head.

It'll be a hell of an evening.

That isn't...
[Charlie chuckles]

You are attractive.

I mean, really--

Let's not get into this.
Okay, Charlie? Please.

We had a good business
relationship before--

We're not-- It's not only
a business relationship, Grace.

I mean, come on, we--

We danced together.
I dipped you.

And then you dropped me
on my head,

metaphorically speaking.

[both chuckle]

See, that's the thing. I--

I laugh with you.

There's nobody else that--

It's been a long time
since I met somebody who--

Who I want
to hang out with and--

And do stuff with and talk to.

But that's it?

Yes.

But it has nothing to do
with you.

No. Wait. That--

That sounds wrong.
That's not what I mean.

God.

You could--

You could be all the things
that you are,

and I still couldn't.

I can't.

Why not?

It's a long story.

I have the time.

[guitar music playing]

I'm...

I'm waiting for someone.

Kirsten.

We've been together
for a while

and, um, well...

[speaks indistinctly]

Make radio contact
so we don't know

where the army's
gonna make a stand.

What are you watching?

I don't know.

Some old movie.

It's just on.

I...

I was thinking.

I think I'm gonna go back
to the police station.

I mean, I think it's
a good idea
that we went and I just--

I want to see it through.

Good. That's good.

And we should probably
start thinking

about what's gonna happen
after that.

I kind of gotta
start looking at things.

You know, at myself,

some of the choices I make.

[Callie sighs]
Like why it always seems,
no matter what I do,

I always go for the wrong guy.

Why do you think I do that?

I don't know.

What's that?

I went and--

And picked up some pamphlets
and brochures

and stuff about--
About your situation.

You know, like how you can--

You got those for me?

Well, yeah.

[sighs]

Bailey, that is just--

That is so great.

You think so?

Good.

Because I really think so too.

I mean, I've been looking
through this stuff,

and I think a lot of it
could be really helpful.

You're amazing.
You know that?

No.

[Callie]
Yeah, you are.

See, this is what I mean.

It's like, what is my problem?

You know?

I mean,
the world's an okay place,

but I just--
I keep ending up with these--

These losers and creeps

and I don't want that.

I don't want to be the kind
of person that wants that.

I just--
I don't know why I can't--

Why I just can't find someone
like you.

I just want someone like you.

[TV]
You all got families at home.

Wives, mothers,
and sweethearts.
