| [00:01] | Previously on “Felicity”… | |
| [00:02] | I was just, uh, thinking about Thanksgiving last year. | |
| [00:06] | – It feeIs like yesterday. – Really? | |
| [00:10] | Yeah. | |
| [00:16] | I think I left my matches in my coat poc… | |
| [00:22] | That was Professor Sherman. | |
| [00:35] | OK. Let’s open this up for discussion. | |
| [00:38] | Felicity. | |
| [00:41] | I’m not sure. Maybe the perspective is off? | |
| [00:44] | I can’t quite put my finger on it, but something feeIs wrong. | |
| [00:48] | Oh. There’s definitely something wrong here, but it isn’t the perspective. | |
| [00:52] | Is it the shading? | |
| [00:54] | Perhaps… | |
| [00:55] | or could it be the fact… | |
| [00:57] | that you are a manipulator and a liar? | |
| [01:00] | – Whoa. – What? | |
| [01:01] | Not to mention a bit of a slut. | |
| [01:12] | – Harsh. – Bruce. | |
| [01:14] | – You didn’t deserve that. – I know. Can you believe her? | |
| [01:20] | W-what are you doing? | |
| [01:23] | Why’d you push me away? | |
| [01:25] | I… I’m sorry. | |
| [01:26] | I didn’t mean to push you away. I was just… | |
| [01:29] | – Drunk. – Confused. | |
| [01:31] | Because you’re still in love with me. | |
| [01:44] | Dear Sally… | |
| [01:46] | So the dreams started Thanksgiving night. | |
| [01:50] | NoeI’s kiss… | |
| [01:51] | it’s just stirring up feelings I guess I’ve been trying to avoid. | |
| [01:56] | The monday after break, I could barely even look at him. | |
| [02:11] | – Hi. | – Hi. How’s it going? |
| [02:13] | Oh, I’m still recovering from my 200-proof hangover. | |
| [02:17] | Totally. | |
| [02:24] | Look. I just wanted to say about, uh, what happened… | |
| [02:27] | – The kiss. – Yeah. | |
| [02:31] | Uh… it was a really stupid drunken | |
| [02:33] | mistake that I totally regret. | |
| [02:36] | I feel guilty about it. | |
| [02:38] | Me, too. | |
| [02:40] | Yeah? OK. | |
| [02:46] | I mean, not to mention the trouble we’re in now with Sherman. | |
| [02:49] | Yeah. I know. But… | |
| [02:51] | I thought about it, and she’s a professional. | |
| [02:53] | She’s not gonna hold this against us. | |
| [02:55] | – Of course she will. – No, she won’t. | |
| [02:58] | She’s not gonna give us a bad grade because of what happened over Thanksgiving. | |
| [03:06] | OK. We’re dead. | |
| [03:07] | Dead. | |
| [03:51] | The three weeks since Thanksgiving have been unbelievably frustrating… | |
| [03:54] | and not just because of finals. | |
| [03:57] | Even though I decided against being in a serious relationship… | |
| [04:00] | my unconscious mind just wouldn’t cooperate. | |
| [04:03] | It wouldn’t let go of Noel. | |
| [04:07] | Noel… | |
| [04:11] | That kiss… that kiss has not only screwed up my sleep patterns… | |
| [04:14] | it’s put a giant curse on our art class. | |
| [04:18] | Felicity? | |
| [04:19] | Sorry. | |
| [04:20] | Pay attention, please. | |
| [04:22] | So we should all be getting our final projects ready. | |
| [04:27] | I want you to do two portraits of yourself. | |
| [04:30] | One as you see yourself and one as you | |
| [04:32] | think the outside world perceives you. | |
| [04:36] | Then pair off with a partner… | |
| [04:38] | and you’ll be doing each other’s portraits. | |
| [04:41] | I expect to see at least five of the techniques | |
| [04:44] | that we have worked with this past semester. | |
| [04:48] | Choose a face that you like. | |
| [04:51] | You’re gonna be spending a lot of time looking at it. | |
| [04:52] | If you want to use color. That’s fine. | |
| [04:54] | Just don’t get fancy. Keep it simple. | |
| [04:56] | You may want to use a mirror for the self-portraits. | |
| [04:59] | So let’s get your materials together, go for it… | |
| [05:01] | I really want to do this with you. | |
| [05:02] | Yeah? | |
| [05:04] | Well, I mean, unless… | |
| [05:05] | No. I want to. Of course. | |
| [05:07] | Good. OK. | |
| [05:15] | – Hi. | – Hi. |
| [05:19] | Noel and I are going to be partners. | |
| [05:21] | That’s OK, right? | |
| [05:22] | Yes, of course. | |
| [05:24] | Good, um… | |
| [05:26] | and we just wanted to let you know… | |
| [05:29] | that what happened at Thanksgiving, um… | |
| [05:32] | What you saw had nothing to do with David. | |
| [05:36] | That’s true. | |
| [05:37] | It was your punch that did it. | |
| [05:41] | I’m just leaving. | |
| [05:48] | Do you have a class-related question? | |
| [05:51] | I really admire you as a teacher. | |
| [05:53] | Obviously, I’ve learned so much from you this semester, and… | |
| [06:00] | I just wanted to make sure that what happened… | |
| [06:03] | isn’t going to affect our teacher/student relationship. | |
| [06:07] | I’m going to pretend you didn’t just ask me that. | |
| [06:10] | OK. | |
| [06:12] | I’ll see you on Thursday. | |
| [06:19] | Oh. My God. That’s just fantastic! | |
| [06:21] | I… no. Yes. I can bring samples over tomorrow afternoon. | |
| [06:26] | Uh… absolutely. | |
| [06:28] | Yes, sir. | |
| [06:30] | As much as you’d like. What… | |
| [06:33] | OK. | |
| [06:35] | Yes! | |
| [06:36] | What? | |
| [06:37] | I don’t believe this. | |
| [06:38] | What… what… what happened? | |
| [06:40] | OK, um, you know how… | |
| [06:42] | how I was giving away Smoothaise samples on Thanksgiving? | |
| [06:45] | Yes. | |
| [06:46] | Well, apparently, there’s this investor guy… and he, uh, totally flipped out. | |
| [06:50] | Total Smoothaise fanatic… | |
| [06:53] | and he wants to distribute it to restaurant chains. | |
| [06:56] | Oh, my God. | |
| [06:57] | – That’s amazing! – Isn’t that great? | |
| [06:59] | – Congratulations! – Thank you. | |
| [07:01] | You know, I’m gonna buy you a drink tonight at Epstein Bar. | |
| [07:03] | Oh, you’re playing? | |
| [07:04] | Yes, I’m playing. | |
| [07:05] | Wow! That’s great. | |
| [07:07] | You absolutely have to come… | |
| [07:09] | because I sent out, like, a million flyers… | |
| [07:11] | and there might be music people there. | |
| [07:12] | Oh, music people. | |
| [07:16] | – Hey. | – Hey. |
| [07:18] | What’s wrong? | |
| [07:20] | Nothing! | |
| [07:28] | My American Lit finaI’s due in 48 hours and I haven’t | |
| [07:30] | even started yet. That’s why I slammed the door. | |
| [07:37] | That’s why I’m gonna go slam it again. | |
| [07:40] | OK. | |
| [07:49] | I thought with time the dreams would stop… | |
| [07:51] | but they haven’t. | |
| [07:53] | In fact, they’ve just gotten more intense. | |
| [08:09] | I’ve missed you so much. | |
| [08:12] | I had her first. | |
| [08:14] | You can never take that away from me no matter how much you love her. | |
| [08:17] | I’m the one who really taught her how to make love. | |
| [08:21] | I’m her soul mate. | |
| [08:24] | No. I am. | |
| [08:28] | Lucky? | |
| [08:29] | Je m’appelle Chance. | |
| [08:31] | What are you doing here? | |
| [08:32] | I am a metaphor for your sexual | |
| [08:35] | ambivalence and confusion. | |
| [08:41] | You OK? | |
| [08:42] | Yeah. Yeah. I was, um… | |
| [08:45] | I was just… thinking about this dream I had. | |
| [08:47] | It’s nothing. | |
| [08:50] | No. Tell me. I want to know what you were dreaming. | |
| [08:52] | No. It doesn’t even make sense at all. | |
| [08:54] | I don’t even remember the details. | |
| [08:56] | It’s just stupid. | |
| [09:10] | I’m dreading doing this self-portrait, sitting in | |
| [09:13] | front of a mirror, studying every pore of my face. | |
| [09:15] | Yuck. | |
| [09:17] | Oh, I’m gonna have to disagree on that one. | |
| [09:19] | I mean, drawing you is… | |
| [09:22] | Well, “yuck” is not the word I’d use to describe it. | |
| [09:29] | How’s, uh… how’s Ruby? | |
| [09:31] | Still in I.A. She’ll be back in a couple of weeks, but she’s, uh… | |
| [09:34] | totally unimpressed with the whole Hollywood scene. | |
| [09:43] | You must miss her. | |
| [09:45] | Yeah. | |
| [09:57] | I was pretty sure I was making something out of nothing… | |
| [09:59] | that Noel wasn’t really sending out signals. I was just imagining them. | |
| [10:04] | But then something happened. | |
| [10:06] | Late Wednesday night, mid-final sketch… | |
| [10:09] | we took a TV break. | |
| [10:10] | I guess we were both exhausted because we passed out. | |
| [10:14] | When woke up | |
| [10:16] | I could feel his breath against my neck… | |
| [10:19] | and Noel had his arm around me. | |
| [10:24] | So what happened when you woke up? | |
| [10:25] | Nothing. I got up first, and | |
| [10:28] | he didn’t say anything about it. | |
| [10:30] | I don’t know if he did it on purpose. We just went back to drawing. | |
| [10:34] | What happened to “I don’t want to date anyone right now”? | |
| [10:36] | I know, but… | |
| [10:39] | when I said it to David, I meant it. | |
| [10:43] | Last year, I had a chance to be with Noel… | |
| [10:46] | and if I have the chance again… | |
| [10:49] | I just… | |
| [10:52] | I don’t want to make the same mistake again. | |
| [10:55] | I mean, unless this is all wishful thinking anyway. | |
| [11:00] | Are… are Ruby and Noel… | |
| [11:03] | you know, are they serious? | |
| [11:05] | I think he likes her. | |
| [11:07] | I mean, I don’t know. I mean… | |
| [11:10] | you guys have a history. It’s a whole different thing. | |
| [11:13] | Plus, she’s been out of town for weeks. | |
| [11:15] | – What does that mean? – I mean, how serious can it be? | |
| [11:20] | Do you think I should tell him about the dreams? | |
| [11:21] | You two have been dancing around this long enough. | |
| [11:25] | You might as well. | |
| [11:32] | I couldn’t take it anymore. | |
| [11:33] | My dreams, our nap… all these things were | |
| [11:35] | adding up to some pretty unmistakable conclusions. | |
| [11:38] | I had to confront Noel and I just have to live with the consequences. | |
| [11:42] | Hi. | |
| [11:44] | Ruby. | |
| [11:45] | – It’s so good to see you. – Uh, yeah. | |
| [11:47] | They rearranged my shooting schedule so I could come back for my Econ final. | |
| [11:51] | Come on in. NoeI’s in the shower. | |
| [12:12] | I… | |
| [12:14] | I’m thirsty. Aren’t you? | |
| [12:17] | No. | |
| [12:18] | OK. I’m just, uh… Portrait break. | |
| [12:21] | Good. I’m getting carpal tunnel. | |
| [12:25] | Can you believe it’s already Christmas? | |
| [12:26] | I mean, I swear that time’s going faster than it used to. | |
| [12:29] | I know. What happened to fall? | |
| [12:31] | It’s like it skipped and went directly from summer to winter. | |
| [12:37] | What’s this, Christmas shopping? How non-procrastinating of you. | |
| [12:41] | – Or is this Elena’s? – No. It’s mine. | |
| [12:44] | Oh, wow. Which teacher are you trying to butter up? | |
| [12:46] | Actually, that’s maybe for Ruby. | |
| [12:50] | Maybe. | |
| [12:54] | Yeah. I’m not sure. I can’t decide what the hell to do. | |
| [12:57] | No. I’m sure she’ll love it. | |
| [13:00] | I don’t know. Hey. Uh… | |
| [13:04] | is this better? | |
| [13:09] | Uh… that’s really pretty. | |
| [13:10] | Or… this. | |
| [13:17] | Too much? | |
| [13:19] | No. | |
| [13:23] | It’s too much, isn’t it? | |
| [13:24] | But is the Palm Pilot too impersonal? | |
| [13:26] | Because she’s always complaining about being disorganized… | |
| [13:28] | and my brother got one and said it completely changed his life… | |
| [13:31] | and that made me want one. | |
| [13:32] | So I just… What do you think? | |
| [13:35] | Noel, I… | |
| [13:37] | You can say anything you want. They’re all returnable. | |
| [13:39] | I can’t tell you what to give Ruby. | |
| [13:41] | No. I just want your opinion. | |
| [13:43] | I think they’re all really good. | |
| [13:46] | OK. Well, just tell me which one you would want. | |
| [13:53] | What? What’s going on? | |
| [13:56] | I could probably tell you what to give Ruby… | |
| [14:00] | if I didn’t have a personal interest at stake. | |
| [14:08] | I want to go out with you again. | |
| [14:11] | I don’t even know how serious you and Ruby are… | |
| [14:14] | or even if you’d be interested in dating me if you weren’t dating anyone else. | |
| [14:19] | Oh, my God. | |
| [14:23] | I’m reeling. I’m physically reeling. | |
| [14:29] | I know. This was, like, a bombshell. | |
| [14:34] | I don’t… I… | |
| [14:35] | I can’t really feel my legs. | |
| [14:53] | This is bad timing, what you’re saying. | |
| [14:59] | Yeah. | |
| [15:05] | I saw this guy on the news when I was a kid… | |
| [15:08] | a stunt guy… | |
| [15:10] | and he was. Uh… he was on a motorcycle… | |
| [15:13] | and he was doing this insane jump… | |
| [15:15] | over, like, 60 school buses or something ridiculous, you know? | |
| [15:19] | And he tried it, and he missed. | |
| [15:22] | He broke, like, 80% of the bones | |
| [15:25] | of his body on the roof of bus 59… | |
| [15:30] | and I remember they interviewed him from the hospital. | |
| [15:34] | He had bandages and gauze all over him. | |
| [15:36] | He looked up, and you could only see his eyes… | |
| [15:40] | and they asked him if he was gonna try it again and he said, “No.” | |
| [15:43] | And they said, “Why not?” | |
| [15:46] | And he said, “Because I really missed the first time.” | |
| [15:55] | You just said the perfect thing… | |
| [15:59] | and… thank you for being honest back. | |
| [16:05] | Now I feel weird. | |
| [16:07] | It’s like reverse reeling. | |
| [16:08] | No. Don’t. We should both feel really good. | |
| [16:11] | We just… got it out there. | |
| [16:14] | We certainly did. | |
| [16:17] | Now we can just move on. | |
| [16:31] | Give her the bracelet. | |
| [16:34] | You think? | |
| [16:37] | It’s what I’d want. | |
| [16:45] | * I know by now * | |
| [16:48] | * Better be this time * | |
| [16:51] | * Give me love. Give me life * | |
| [16:54] | * I’ve been traveling for so long * | |
| [16:59] | * Overdrive. Hundred miles * | |
| [17:02] | * I deserve a little bit of this life * | |
| [17:08] | * A little smile * | |
| [17:11] | * I deserve a little bit of you * | |
| [17:29] | – Good job, Julie. – Thanks. | |
| [17:32] | Hey. | |
| [17:33] | Hi. | |
| [17:35] | I found your flyer in my in-box, and I decided on a whim… | |
| [17:38] | to come check out your show, and I’m really glad I did. | |
| [17:42] | That was a great set. | |
| [17:43] | – Thank you. Thanks. – Welcome. I’m Eric Kidd. | |
| [17:46] | Julie Emrick. | |
| [17:47] | – Oh, you know that. You got the flyer. – Yes. | |
| [17:51] | I’m head of A&R at Pop Rocks Records. | |
| [17:54] | – I don’t… – Yeah. Well, we’re growing. | |
| [17:56] | You know, we have a lot of great acts and we’re really into developing new talent. | |
| [18:01] | So I was wondering, have you made any recordings? | |
| [18:03] | Me? | |
| [18:04] | – Yeah. – No. | |
| [18:06] | Well, I’ve made a couple of really cheesy tapes for myself. | |
| [18:08] | I borrowed a 4-track from my friend. | |
| [18:10] | There was, like, a dog barking in the background, but… | |
| [18:13] | I would love to hear it, canine backup and all. | |
| [18:15] | Maybe I could pass it along to my partners. | |
| [18:17] | Are you kidding? | |
| [18:19] | No. I’m dead serious. Really. | |
| [18:22] | Look. Can I buy you a drink or something? | |
| [18:24] | Oh, God. I would love to but I’m in the middle of | |
| [18:26] | finaIs right now and I should not even be here, so… | |
| [18:29] | – Hey! – OK. | |
| [18:30] | You were amazing. | |
| [18:31] | – Thank you. – Amazing. | |
| [18:32] | Sean, this is Eric. Eric, this is Sean. | |
| [18:35] | Be really nice because he’s from a record company. | |
| [18:38] | – Nice to meet you. – Yeah. You, too. | |
| [18:41] | Well, look, why don’t you give me a call? | |
| [18:44] | I would love to hear those tapes. Really. | |
| [18:47] | – Here’s my card. – OK. Thanks. | |
| [18:50] | No problem. It was nice meeting you. | |
| [18:52] | – Thanks for coming. – Nice to meet you. | |
| [18:54] | Yeah. | |
| [18:57] | Oh, my God. Pop Rocks. | |
| [19:07] | – What’s up? – NoeI’s the greatest. | |
| [19:11] | Um, Gwen, this is Felicity, my old lab partner. | |
| [19:14] | Felicity, this is Gwen, your replacement. | |
| [19:16] | It’s nice to meet you. | |
| [19:18] | Gwen, why don’t you continue with the assignment and I’ll be just a sec. | |
| [19:23] | I’ll go get… | |
| [19:25] | – The beaker. | – The beaker. |
| [19:35] | She’s the, uh, slow talker? | |
| [19:38] | She’s not the fast talker. | |
| [19:40] | What’s wrong? | |
| [19:42] | Noel just dumped me. | |
| [19:45] | Since when were you dating? | |
| [19:47] | I, uh… | |
| [19:50] | told him I wanted to see him again… | |
| [19:52] | and he said no. | |
| [19:55] | He likes Ruby. | |
| [19:56] | Oh, honey, I’m sorry. | |
| [19:58] | No, no, don’t be. | |
| [19:59] | I told him how I felt, and he made a choice. | |
| [20:08] | It’s weird. I, uh… | |
| [20:11] | I guess I should be miserable or something but… | |
| [20:13] | I really respect his decision. | |
| [20:19] | That only makes you want him more. | |
| [20:21] | Damn right. | |
| [20:23] | It sucks how that happens. | |
| [20:26] | Yeah. | |
| [20:47] | Merry Christmas. | |
| [20:48] | Oh, my God. What is this? | |
| [20:50] | Open it. | |
| [20:52] | I didn’t get you anything yet. | |
| [20:54] | – That’s OK. – OK. | |
| [21:04] | A Palm Pilot. I totally need one of these. | |
| [21:07] | Yeah? | |
| [21:08] | I’m so disorganized. | |
| [21:10] | Or unorganized? | |
| [21:12] | Whichever one’s right. | |
| [21:13] | You sure you like it? Because I have the receipt. | |
| [21:15] | – We can return it. – No. I love it. | |
| [21:17] | Yeah, here, let’s return it. | |
| [21:18] | Noel, stop. This is perfect. | |
| [21:22] | Really? | |
| [21:24] | Really. | |
| [21:26] | You’re the sweetest. | |
| [21:30] | – Good. I’m glad you like it. – Wow. | |
| [21:33] | OK. Please, now hook it up. | |
| [21:35] | Hook it up? Oh, that was nice. | |
| [21:49] | – Hey. – Hello. | |
| [21:52] | – You look great. – Thanks. | |
| [21:54] | Any special occasion? | |
| [21:57] | No. I was just dropping off my tape… to that record guy. | |
| [22:00] | – Who, Eric? – Mm-hmm. | |
| [22:02] | How’d that go? | |
| [22:03] | He seems really interested. | |
| [22:06] | Well, that’s great. You want a sandwich or something? | |
| [22:08] | No. Actually, I just had lunch with him in his office. | |
| [22:11] | He ordered a pizza. | |
| [22:12] | Really? | |
| [22:13] | Oh, God, I am so excited. | |
| [22:15] | OK. He’s thinking about doing this thing called a demo deal… | |
| [22:18] | where they pay to have, like, three or four songs recorded… | |
| [22:21] | and then if they like what they hear… | |
| [22:23] | they may actually sign me. | |
| [22:25] | But you didn’t sign anything with him yet, did you? | |
| [22:27] | – No. Why? – I don’t know. I just kind of got a bad feeling from him. | |
| [22:31] | – What? Yeah. I mean, to be honest, he just seemed like he was a | |
| [22:34] | little more interested in hitting on you than helping your career. | |
| [22:36] | – What are you talking about? – I’m just telling you what I saw. | |
| [22:39] | I don’t believe you. I’m standing here telling you something that just happened | |
| [22:43] | to me, and all you can talk about is how you think that he was hitting on me? | |
| [22:46] | OK. I’m sorry. Maybe I’m wrong. | |
| [22:48] | You know. When you told me about your stupid | |
| [22:51] | Smoothaise investor I was just happy for you. | |
| [22:53] | Wait a minute. Stupid Smoothaise investor? | |
| [22:55] | He’s got two partners. They own a record company. | |
| [22:57] | – The guy is legit. – The guy is a little slimy, OK? | |
| [23:00] | You don’t even know him. | |
| [23:02] | I don’t need to know him. I met him. | |
| [23:04] | You think just because I am a girl that he’s trying to scam on me… | |
| [23:08] | and I don’t have any business sense whatsoever. | |
| [23:10] | BEN. OK. OK. OK. | |
| [23:11] | I’m staring at a blank computer screen panicked, | |
| [23:13] | trying to write a paper on a topic I don’t understand. | |
| [23:16] | So, please, shut up. | |
| [23:19] | That’s fine because I’m leaving. | |
| [23:21] | No. Julie. Come on. | |
| [23:39] | I hope what I said earlier didn’t freak you out. | |
| [23:43] | No. No, no, no. | |
| [23:44] | It’s, uh… | |
| [23:46] | it was the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me. | |
| [23:48] | OK. | |
| [23:58] | So did you end up giving Ruby the bracelet? | |
| [24:01] | Actually, I gave her the Palm Pilot. | |
| [24:04] | Really? | |
| [24:07] | How did she take it? | |
| [24:08] | – Seemed to like it. – Good. | |
| [24:19] | – All right. You’re too hard. – Let me see it. | |
| [24:22] | No. I made you look like a really cute tomato. | |
| [24:29] | I think I finally got your eyes right. | |
| [24:35] | – Hey, can I try something? – What? | |
| [24:38] | Bruce, that guy from class… | |
| [24:40] | Yeah. You know, he was in a dream I had recently. | |
| [24:44] | Disturbing. Wow. | |
| [24:48] | Uh, anyway, he was telling me about this technique… | |
| [24:51] | where, before you draw, | |
| [24:54] | you get close and stare deeply into the other person’s eyes, like, nonstop. | |
| [24:58] | The eyes being the window to the soul, that kind of thing? | |
| [25:00] | Yeah. You know, sort of like looking for the inner essence of your subject. | |
| [25:05] | He says he does it when he gets blocked and I thought he was hitting on me at first… | |
| [25:08] | but then I met his girlfriend and realized… | |
| [25:10] | that it’s an actual artistic exercise, so… | |
| [25:14] | – do you mind? – No. | |
| [25:16] | OK. Uh, well, why don’t you come over here… | |
| [25:19] | and we’ll stare? | |
| [25:35] | MAN. * It must be true * | |
| [25:39] | * It must be true * | |
| [25:42] | * We belong to us * | |
| [25:48] | * And I belong to you * | |
| [25:54] | * Oh. We belong to… * | |
| [26:02] | What? | |
| [26:03] | You two were about to kiss, that’s what. | |
| [26:05] | – Elena. – It’s OK. Go ahead and get it over with. | |
| [26:09] | – We were not about to kiss. – It’s all right with me. | |
| [26:11] | It doesn’t have to be Thanksgiving. | |
| [26:26] | Last night’s dream was the most unsettling so far. | |
| [26:59] | Oh, no. | |
| [27:04] | I really wanted that bracelet. | |
| [27:07] | Me, too. | |
| [27:09] | You, too? | |
| [27:10] | Interesting. | |
| [27:14] | So, was this your idea? | |
| [27:22] | Sally. You know that feeling when you’re driving somewhere… | |
| [27:26] | and you can’t remember exactly how you got there? | |
| [27:30] | Well. I just took my French Lit final… | |
| [27:33] | and I have no idea what the question was. | |
| [27:53] | Hey, Roger Clemens, what’s your problem? | |
| [27:56] | Nothing. | |
| [27:57] | You know. I know what that’s like when you just want | |
| [27:59] | to throw a Hi-Lite across the room. That makes sense. | |
| [28:02] | American Literature. | |
| [28:04] | – Things You Learn In College. – No. It’s my final paper. | |
| [28:07] | – It’s impossible. – No, no. Final papers are a hassle, OK? | |
| [28:10] | Paying for life is impossible. | |
| [28:13] | I swear to God. If I could switch places with you, I almost would. | |
| [28:16] | No, thanks. What, you got money trouble? | |
| [28:21] | No. Nothing. It’s just R&D’s very expensive. OK? | |
| [28:24] | But when Smoothaise hits, which I know it will… | |
| [28:27] | no question about it I’m gonna look back on this | |
| [28:29] | period of my life and I’m gonna laugh about it. | |
| [28:31] | I’m already looking at this period of life and laughing. | |
| [28:34] | What’s your paper? | |
| [28:36] | It’s The Invisible Man. | |
| [28:40] | What? “Examine the theme that American society | |
| [28:43] | willfully ignores and oppresses African-Americans.” | |
| [28:45] | Yeah. In 5,000 words. | |
| [28:50] | See, all I can think about is that when this guy makes | |
| [28:52] | himself invisible it’s like some sort of a metaphor. | |
| [28:55] | – You know what I mean? – Metaphor. – Yeah. | |
| [28:57] | This guy comes in to Sidderbridge and he’s all dressed up in bandages… | |
| [28:59] | and everybody’s, like, “Hey, what a freak.” | |
| [29:02] | – H.G. Wells. – Yeah. | |
| [29:04] | So I’m thinking that that’s what it’s like for some people… | |
| [29:07] | but I have no idea. I feel like a total idiot. | |
| [29:10] | – I think you are an idiot… – Thanks. | |
| [29:11] | But not for the reason that you’re thinking. | |
| [29:12] | – Sean, come on, that’s not funny. – Oh, no, it’s not funny. | |
| [29:16] | See, you’re supposed to be reading… | |
| [29:18] | Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. | |
| [29:24] | There’s another Invisible Man? | |
| [29:26] | Two books with the same name, Sean? | |
| [29:29] | That is so stupid. | |
| [29:31] | No. That’s a metaphor, Ben. | |
| [29:33] | Shut up! | |
| [29:34] | You know what? I shouldn’t have told you. | |
| [29:36] | I cannot believe I read the wrong freaking book. | |
| [29:42] | Just so you know… | |
| [29:43] | Eric Kidd gave my tape to his partners… | |
| [29:45] | – and they loved it. – Who’s Eric Kidd? | |
| [29:47] | Oh. Just the guy who wants to get in my pants. | |
| [29:50] | What, so they’re signing you? That’s great. | |
| [29:51] | I know. Eric still has to hear from one guy… | |
| [29:54] | but once he does, he’s gonna draw up a contract. | |
| [29:56] | Well, congratulations. | |
| [29:59] | Thank you. Where are you going? | |
| [30:01] | – Bookstore. | – Bookstore. |
| [30:09] | I’m sorry. I, um… | |
| [30:11] | I was just being a little overprotective. | |
| [30:14] | I get to record my songs. | |
| [30:15] | I know. How much fun is that gonna be? | |
| [30:17] | Hey, if you need anybody to play the oboe… | |
| [30:19] | High-school band. | |
| [30:21] | I didn’t mean to be so… | |
| [30:23] | No. Hey, forget it. Come on. | |
| [30:26] | That was… | |
| [30:28] | The Smoothaise investor, OK, wasn’t actually the investor. | |
| [30:31] | He was a liaison, or a secretary, it turns out, so… | |
| [30:36] | Yeah. It totally fell apart… | |
| [30:38] | which is actually, you know, a good thing… | |
| [30:39] | because the guy was talking to me about signing | |
| [30:41] | over all the rights and I never would have done that. | |
| [30:43] | – Yeah, of course you wouldn’t. – No. | |
| [30:46] | I’m sorry. | |
| [30:47] | Yeah, well, whatever. | |
| [30:51] | Congratulations, though. Seriously. | |
| [30:55] | Thank you. | |
| [30:56] | I’m gonna go call my parents. | |
| [31:10] | – Sorry. – No. That’s, uh… Hi. | |
| [31:13] | I wasn’t just staring at myself. I’m actually doing a self-portrait for class. | |
| [31:17] | Oh, I know. Noel told me about the assignment. | |
| [31:19] | Do you have a second? | |
| [31:20] | Yeah. Yeah, of course. Come in. | |
| [31:24] | I’m sort of having a stupid crisis. | |
| [31:28] | Is it about finals? | |
| [31:30] | No. It’s about Noel. | |
| [31:33] | I wasn’t even gonna ask you, because you dated him… | |
| [31:36] | but then I realized that’s why I should ask you. | |
| [31:38] | All this does is show how lame I am with guys. | |
| [31:42] | You know I’m doing that movie, right? | |
| [31:44] | Right, which is great. | |
| [31:46] | I guess it is. | |
| [31:47] | It just seems sort of like it’s not me, but… | |
| [31:50] | So they’re giving me this thing called per diem, which is money. | |
| [31:53] | It’s, like, free money, on top of what they’re already paying me… | |
| [31:57] | so I’m thinking of getting Noel a ticket. | |
| [31:59] | What kind? A plane ti… | |
| [32:01] | Yeah. To come back with me to Los Angeles. | |
| [32:04] | The movie said they needed me for two more weeks… | |
| [32:07] | which is insane since all I do is sit around. | |
| [32:11] | Why I’m asking you is because | |
| [32:13] | it seems a little extravagant. | |
| [32:18] | Would it freak him out? | |
| [32:23] | I don’t know. I… | |
| [32:26] | I don’t think it would. | |
| [32:28] | So if you were me. You’d give it to him? | |
| [32:32] | If I were you… | |
| [32:38] | yeah. I mean, you know, but don’t really take my advice. | |
| [32:42] | – I mean, I don’t… – Oh, no, I’m gonna. | |
| [33:07] | Were you going to kiss me or not? | |
| [33:10] | Because it certainly seems like you were. | |
| [33:13] | – Last night? – Noel! | |
| [33:15] | Yes. I almost kissed you, all right? | |
| [33:18] | Well, what about Ruby? | |
| [33:19] | I know. God! | |
| [33:21] | You throw this insane curve ball at me, you know? | |
| [33:23] | You want to start dating again? Could you have chosen a worse time? | |
| [33:26] | I didn’t choose this time, and I only told you | |
| [33:27] | because I thought you were sending me signals. | |
| [33:29] | Well, maybe I was. | |
| [33:32] | OK. Wait a second. Two things. First of all… | |
| [33:36] | that is not fair to Ruby, and secondly… | |
| [33:39] | then what are you saying? | |
| [33:41] | I’m saying I’m a mess right now. | |
| [33:43] | Ruby and I are just starting out. She’s | |
| [33:45] | been gone longer than we’ve been together. | |
| [33:47] | Obviously, she doesn’t mean more to me now than you do. She can’t. | |
| [33:49] | On the other hand I didn’t just throw out that motorcycle story cavalierly. | |
| [33:54] | You know, I’d actually thought about that and on the other hand, I think I’m… | |
| [33:57] | I think I’m willing to risk it again and trust us… | |
| [33:59] | you again. | |
| [34:03] | Really? | |
| [34:10] | – So if Elena hadn’t walked in? – Yes. Yes. | |
| [34:13] | I would’ve planted a giant, undrunk… | |
| [34:17] | guilty kiss on your lips. | |
| [34:20] | God! I’m Ruby’s R.A. | |
| [34:23] | I’m her boyfriend. | |
| [34:29] | You said “I think”… | |
| [34:30] | that you “think” you’re willing to risk it. | |
| [34:33] | Yeah. It doesn’t sound very decisive, does it? | |
| [34:40] | So maybe we just think about it. | |
| [34:46] | Yeah, we can do that. | |
| [35:02] | I didn’t dream at all last night… | |
| [35:04] | not about Noel. Not about anything. | |
| [35:10] | Today was our drawing final. | |
| [35:11] | I woke up sort of energized… | |
| [35:13] | with a weird butterflies feeling I | |
| [35:16] | haven’t had since sometime last year… | |
| [35:19] | this exciting. Hopeful feeling… | |
| [35:22] | that maybe Noel and I were getting back together. | |
| [35:27] | Are you and Noel getting back together? | |
| [35:30] | What? | |
| [35:32] | See, the point is, is that I finally met a guy that I really like… | |
| [35:35] | someone I can trust. | |
| [35:38] | So, I get this ridiculous movie thing. | |
| [35:41] | I don’t even know what I’m doing… | |
| [35:42] | and I’m staying in this way-too-modern hotel with | |
| [35:45] | these GQ creepy guys in the lobby all the time… | |
| [35:48] | and the only thing that really gets me through it… | |
| [35:53] | are the packages Noel sends me. | |
| [35:57] | Noel sent you packages? | |
| [35:59] | Yeah. Really… just really great packages… | |
| [36:03] | with little stuff, little cute things… | |
| [36:05] | like toys and horoscopes and candy… | |
| [36:08] | and he… he made some | |
| [36:10] | cards on the computer… | |
| [36:13] | and… it sounds really stupid talking about it. | |
| [36:17] | I can’t tell you how much that meant to me… | |
| [36:20] | how much he means to me. | |
| [36:25] | Are you and Noel getting back together? | |
| [36:28] | Ruby… | |
| [36:29] | Listen. Maybe it’s just me being totally insecure but… | |
| [36:32] | when I gave Noel that ticket, you know to go back to Los Angeles… | |
| [36:36] | he was really touched, but he seemed sort of distant and, um… | |
| [36:42] | and he wasn’t sure if he could go… | |
| [36:44] | and I didn’t really know why. | |
| [36:47] | He didn’t give me an answer. | |
| [36:49] | He didn’t say that was because of me? | |
| [36:52] | No, but when he talks about you… | |
| [36:55] | or, you know, when you talk to him on the phone… | |
| [36:59] | he’s different. | |
| [37:00] | It’s hard to explain. | |
| [37:02] | I know you guys have been hanging out a lot… | |
| [37:04] | and working on your art final and… | |
| [37:09] | and the point is… | |
| [37:13] | I can’t compete with you. | |
| [37:16] | I know I just can’t. | |
| [37:24] | Of course I like Noel. I mean… | |
| [37:29] | But… | |
| [37:33] | you don’t have to worry about me. | |
| [37:35] | As complicated as it is… | |
| [37:40] | Noel and I are just friends. | |
| [37:43] | Really? | |
| [37:45] | Yeah. | |
| [37:46] | Oh, my God. | |
| [37:48] | That’s exactly what I wanted you to say. | |
| [37:54] | You don’t have to do this. You know. | |
| [37:56] | Actually, I like typing, so… | |
| [37:59] | You know what? This is a halfway decent paper. | |
| [38:01] | – Is it? – Yeah. | |
| [38:02] | I’ve been working on pure adrenaline but, yeah, it feeIs pretty good. | |
| [38:05] | – What time is it due? – Um, in fifteen minutes. | |
| [38:08] | Piece of cake. | |
| [38:09] | OK. Uh, you spelled “polarized” wrong. | |
| [38:11] | – All right. – Fix it? | |
| [38:13] | Yeah. | |
| [38:15] | – Let’s go. – We lost… we lost it. | |
| [38:16] | – What? – Joking. | |
| [38:17] | Ah, don’t do that. | |
| [38:28] | Hi. | |
| [38:31] | So Sherman’s gonna murder us today. You ready for this? | |
| [38:34] | Uh, not really. | |
| [38:36] | I mean it. This is the end of our educational careers. | |
| [38:42] | Ruby came to see me. | |
| [38:45] | She tell you about the ticket? | |
| [38:48] | Yeah. | |
| [38:49] | Yeah. | |
| [38:52] | I think you should go. | |
| [38:55] | Go with Ruby. | |
| [38:58] | When she came to see me, she had this tone in her voice. | |
| [39:04] | It was sweet and urgent and… | |
| [39:09] | a little familiar… | |
| [39:13] | and I realized where I’d heard it before. | |
| [39:16] | From me… | |
| [39:17] | last year when Hannah came. | |
| [39:19] | I was the new girlfriend, and Hannah was the old girlfriend. | |
| [39:24] | That was a horrible feeling. | |
| [39:25] | It’s a totally different situation. | |
| [39:30] | Really? | |
| [39:35] | But still, I think… I think you’re right. | |
| [39:40] | I’m gonna go with Ruby. | |
| [39:43] | Yeah, I… | |
| [39:47] | All I can say is, I understand. | |
| [39:50] | Of course I understand. | |
| [39:53] | OK. Let’s focus on the work. | |
| [39:57] | First up is Felicity Porter and Noel Crane. | |
| [40:01] | All right. Let’s see. | |
| [40:05] | Well. There are some problems here. A few obvious ones… | |
| [40:11] | but clearly for these thoughtful… and skillfully drawn pieces… | |
| [40:16] | the positives far outweigh the negatives. | |
| [40:19] | These two drawings were obviously drawn… | |
| [40:21] | by two people who could really see each other… | |
| [40:26] | who felt a certain… | |
| [40:28] | So it turns out, Sherman didn’t destroy us at all. | |
| [40:31] | She was actually… | |
| [40:33] | she was actually incredibly kind. | |
| [40:35] | That is a very elusive quality to have. | |
| [40:38] | Now. Over here. Uh… | |
| [40:47] | Excuse me. | |
| [40:51] | Uh… I… | |
| [40:53] | I just wanted to say thank you for, uh… | |
| [40:56] | the grade and the critique. | |
| [40:59] | It was really generous. | |
| [41:01] | I was only critiquing the art, not the artist. | |
| [41:23] | Ruby left a day early to get back to her movie. | |
| [41:26] | Noel flies out to meet her tomorrow night… | |
| [41:28] | the same night I fly back to Palo Alto. | |
| [41:32] | I leave from Kennedy and Noel from LaGuardia. | |
| [42:02] | Eh, you take this one, OK? | |
| [42:03] | – You sure? – Yeah. I’ll get the next one. | |
| [42:15] | Going to Kennedy. | |
| [42:17] | OK. | |
| [42:18] | Thanks. | |
| [42:20] | Thank you, sir. | |
| [42:30] | So… | |
| [42:50] | Have a good Christmas. | |
| [42:53] | You, too. |
