[about Ephram and Madison] Yeah, having sex with a rock goddess tends to have an effect on a guy.
They're sleeping together?
Whad'ya think they were doing this whole time, playing solitaire [pause] or some other two-person card game?
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
[to Ephram] I have your report card.
Run for it!
[voiceover] Sometimes we don't know our own strength. It can be hard to tell just how much weight you can safely bear, or how much will crush you. I'd like to think you can shoulder as big of burden as you believe you can -- that it's all a matter of will. Certainly a comforting thought. Other times it's hard to remember you had any strength at all. Then you can only hope to have someone to remind you, you were once fierce and able.
MMindy
I'm sure it wasn't as bad as you think. She really digs you, you know. She talks about you all the time.
Yeah.
MMindy
You kind of love her, don't you?
Yeah.
MMindy
You have that face. I remember when I had the face. Derek Senn. But we called him Demi-God. You know, 'cause he was basically god-like. I met him freshman year, we dated for like six months. It was the most amazing six months of my life. Then he decided he had to bike around South America, so he dropped out. We said goodbye at the airport and I never heard from him again. Pretty much the worst pain I ever felt.
Why does everyone feel the need to tell me how awful their first loves were? I mean, what's up with that?
MMindy
I don't know. I guess because they're always so awful... and amazing... and usually over before they start.
Let me just say that I'm sorry. I know that I kind of disappeared for awhile and that I wasn't the best friend in the world, but I want to change that...Try to work on things, you know?
PPaige
Wow, you're really desperate, you know?
OK, maybe I shouldn't have come.
PPaige
Or maybe you shouldn't have ditched us in the first place.
I didn't ditch you Paige.
PPaige
One day, we're talking on the phone all the time, and the next, Laynie's your new best friend and you won't even wave to me in the halls.
Well I didn't see you calling me. I didn't see any of you, pick up the phone or do one kind thing after Colin died. You just wanted me to keep on doing what I always did: plan all the parties, go to the mall, fight for the best dance costume. Well I couldn't, Paige and I thought you would understand that.
PPaige
I'm sorry. Were your druggie friends more understanding?
Just trying to get my life back.
PPaige
Well, you can't have it back.
TTommy
It's been two days. Didn't you want to make sure I was okay?
I called the hospital, they said you were released yesterday.
TTommy
So were you going to leave a forwarding address or just going for a clean getaway?
I'm just going home.
TTommy
It's good.
Yeah.
TTommy
Mmm, I'll give you a call later, let you get settled in.
No, don't.
TTommy
Look Amy, I screwed up. I never should have taken you to that party, we should never have done all that crap, but this whole thing has been a serious wake-up call for me.
I'm glad, I hope you get the help that you need.
TTommy
No Amy, I don't need help, I just...I just need you.
I can't be that person for you anymore Tommy.
TTommy
It was just a slip, one slip, one night, that's not who I am.
It wasn't one night, it was three months of lies.
TTommy
So what? I'm not good enough for you anymore? What are you gonna do? Gonna go back to Mommy and Daddy? Gonna go back to being little miss perfect, is that it? No you can't. You won't be able to, not after us.
I gotta go, take care of yourself, Tommy.
You're sad.
A little.
Something happen?
Madison and I broke up.
What? When?
About an hour ago.
Oh my God, the other day you said that everything was fine I thought...
Yeah I know, I lied a little bit. Don't ask me why.
Why?
I don't know. I guess I thought if I pretended that everything was great, actually it would be great.
I'm sorry if I have to put my foot down, but I should have done this six months ago. I knew how this was going to end back then. I told you both. I wish someone had listened to me.
What do you mean, "someone"? Did you talk to Madison behind my back?
It's just that... I love Ephram, too. And, since he's my brother, and we're related and everything, I have to love him more.
I understand.
And I think that when you're here, it makes him sad... really, really sad. I don't want to see him that sad any more. So, I'm going, going to have to let you go, Madison.
Okay.
Well maybe in two weeks we could do something, have one of those kick-off friendship lunches, or something.
No, no, I, ah, I could never do the "friend thing" with you. Let's face it, we were never really friends. We were just--
In love.
Yeah.
What's going on here? Delia: Ephram fired Mrs. Hammerhead.
Over the phone, this morning. Actually, it went pretty smoothly -- I've had some experience letting sitters go before, you recall... Everybody will be happy.
I'm not happy.
Oh, you will be.
You changed my life Madison.
Well contrary to proper belief, I am not interested in poaching their patients. You should be ashamed of yourself. In fact, all of you should. All right, come on, everybody out. Let's go. Everybody out. That's it. All of ya. Jumping ship on a good doctor. You outta be ashamed of yourselves. Go on. Out. Store's closed.
That's what you do, Harold. When someone comes after you, you argue. But when someone comes after someone you love, the minute you see blood, you go for the throat.
That's what you do for family. You fight, you go too far.
There's always something good on TV. It's been my motto since I was a little kid; I'm sticking to it.
