00:00:28 Can I get you
00:00:30 Okay. Here you go.
00:00:32 - Thanks.
00:00:38 Hi, Will. Package for you.
00:00:55 I don't think anyone ever imagines
00:00:57 they'll be part of the 46%
00:01:02 Will?
00:01:04 Just heard we got the Quaker Oats account.
00:01:07 Way to go.
00:01:10 Then again,
00:01:11 I never thought I'd spend my days,
00:01:13 weeks and years working
00:01:15 trying to figure out how to get kids
00:01:21 But Tuesdays and Fridays
00:01:24 I get out of work early, and I go
00:01:29 Now, it's a great feeling when you find
00:01:32 And today, I have found
00:01:37 Bitches, they can kiss my...
00:01:40 The other perfect song.
00:02:29 Thank you.
00:02:32 You're welcome.
00:03:57 But sometimes, no matter
00:04:01 there is no right track for what awaits you.
00:04:10 - Come on, come on!
00:04:13 Will, did you know there was gonna be
00:04:16 Aren't they kind of young?
00:04:17 - Yeah! It was a total disaster.
00:04:20 There's a book!
00:04:22 "The 250 million sperm are ejaculated
00:04:25 "and begin their treacherous journey
00:04:29 "One hundred million are wiped
00:04:30 I'm gonna find Maya.
00:04:32 Do you still have sex with Daddy?
00:04:34 - What are you talking about?
00:04:35 - You know, we will go home and talk...
00:04:37 - We will go home and talk about this.
00:04:41 Stop pulling on me! I am trying
00:04:45 We need to talk.
00:04:47 Which is when the man
00:04:51 and thrusts it into a woman's vagina...
00:04:52 Okay, but Mrs. Gallagher
00:04:56 - Yeah.
00:04:58 But what I don't understand,
00:04:59 Sammy Boigon's sister said
00:05:02 I mean, how do you accidentally
00:05:06 - Hey.
00:05:08 Stop saying "penis" and "thrust."
00:05:13 Something cute.
00:05:14 - Explain how Sammy was an accident.
00:05:18 - Penis! Penis.
00:05:21 Okay, they...
00:05:23 It's not like his dad slipped
00:05:27 The accident was that Sammy's mom
00:05:32 If they didn't want a baby,
00:05:37 That's a very good question.
00:05:40 I guess you could say
00:05:45 - Was I an accident?
00:05:46 - I was, wasn't I?
00:05:49 You were completely and totally on purpose.
00:05:57 I think you should tell me
00:06:00 Why do you keep saying "my mom"
00:06:04 Well, because now that
00:06:09 she's mine, not yours.
00:06:11 - Is that so?
00:06:13 And the real story, not the,
00:06:18 "and we decided to take all that love
00:06:21 "and make a family,
00:06:24 You know something?
00:06:27 of how me and your mother met.
00:06:28 - When I'm old enough.
00:06:30 - Look. I know love isn't a fairytale.
00:06:33 Really.
00:06:36 Did you have another girlfriend
00:06:39 Come on, tell me the truth.
00:06:42 I had two serious girlfriends.
00:06:44 And then some other,
00:06:47 You know.
00:06:49 What?
00:06:50 What's the boy word for slut?
00:06:53 They still haven't come up with one yet,
00:06:57 You a vegetarian this week or not?
00:06:58 - Yeah, I am.
00:07:00 I'm guessing
00:07:02 Maybe it was some nerdy guy,
00:07:07 Or maybe
00:07:09 you were friends for the longest time,
00:07:12 and then just when you were
00:07:15 into somebody else's vagina...
00:07:16 Okay. Good night, Maya.
00:07:17 ...you realized Mom
00:07:19 Bedtime!
00:07:20 You still have to tell me
00:07:23 I fell in love with her because
00:07:26 So now she's stupid and ugly and boring?
00:07:30 - Of course not.
00:07:32 - It's complicated, Maya.
00:07:36 I bet that if you just told me the story,
00:07:41 That you just love her.
00:07:44 I know this is tough for you,
00:07:47 That I'm gonna tell you this story
00:07:50 It doesn't work that way.
00:07:51 Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't.
00:07:56 No. Game over. It's time for bed.
00:07:59 No, it's not time for bed!
00:08:03 - Maya.
00:08:08 I need to know.
00:08:11 Fine! Fine!
00:08:14 I'm gonna tell you the story,
00:08:15 - but I'm not telling you who your mom is.
00:08:16 You're just gonna have
00:08:18 - Good.
00:08:19 and some of the facts,
00:08:21 - And then we'll see how smart you are.
00:08:25 - Great. Sounds good. You ready?
00:08:27 No.
00:08:31 - Take your time.
00:08:33 - I know you will.
00:08:35 - Princess pillow?
00:08:37 - You bet.
00:08:47 I'm ready.
00:08:48 Once upon a time,
00:08:51 before e-mails and cell phones
00:08:56 in 1992 to be exact,
00:09:01 there lived a young man
00:09:04 - Hey, Will, man, Happy New Year.
00:09:07 Now, this young man was deeply,
00:09:13 Let's call her...
00:09:14 - Emily!
00:09:16 Emily!
00:09:18 - Hey.
00:09:20 Ten, nine, eight...
00:09:23 Hey, guess who's gonna be the luckiest guy
00:09:28 You.
00:09:29 two, one!
00:09:31 Happy New Year!
00:09:33 They were a perfect couple.
00:09:35 Except to really understand
00:09:38 ended up marrying your mother,
00:09:40 that he had a very big,
00:09:45 All rise
00:09:48 for the President
00:09:54 William
00:09:55 Matthew
00:09:58 Hayes.
00:10:04 You wanted to be President?
00:10:06 I'm just, I don't understand why you have
00:10:09 Why can't you just work for him in Madison?
00:10:11 Well, because they don't need me here.
00:10:13 They need him, Em. Will's the man.
00:10:17 I mean, don't you know
00:10:19 Besides being incredibly hot,
00:10:22 which by the way, I totally respect.
00:10:24 - What if Charlie's right?
00:10:26 - He's functionally retarded.
00:10:30 - Change can be good.
00:10:32 So, we'll change together.
00:10:35 Okay? It's two months in New York.
00:10:38 Besides, we have a plan, right?
00:10:40 The other thing I can't believe is that
00:10:43 'cause I gotta tell you,
00:10:48 And I have absolutely no scruples.
00:10:53 Wait! I almost forgot.
00:10:57 She's the only girl I know in New York.
00:10:58 - I want you to meet her.
00:10:59 - Yes. Yes.
00:11:00 She was on my exchange program
00:11:02 and all the guys wanted to sleep with her,
00:11:05 Maybe you should mail it to her.
00:11:07 - That might be a better idea.
00:11:08 What is it?
00:11:09 Something I should have
00:11:13 I love you, William Hayes.
00:11:17 Okay. Go, go, go. Go be your brilliant self.
00:11:22 Emily sounds like she would
00:11:24 - I just don't know if she's my mom.
00:11:27 Everyone knows that the girlfriend
00:11:28 in the beginning of the story
00:11:31 Which means maybe
00:11:52 I'll never forget that day.
00:11:53 There I was, arriving in the city
00:11:57 to work on a campaign
00:12:00 And on top of that,
00:12:04 the campaign manager would realize
00:12:07 And then I'd be writing speeches,
00:12:09 and then I'd be coming up with strategy,
00:12:11 Will Hayes?
00:12:12 - Hey. Gareth Henderson.
00:12:14 - Hey, how are you?
00:12:17 I brought my C.V. and a sample of some
00:12:21 Fantastic. I cannot wait to peruse these
00:12:25 In the meantime, here's a sample
00:12:28 I'll need filled immediately.
00:12:30 Wait!
00:12:32 You want me to get coffee?
00:12:33 At some point in our lives, we all get coffee.
00:12:36 We're still walking, Hayes.
00:12:37 Have the coffee here by 10:00,
00:12:40 That means I'm gonna have to kill you.
00:12:43 - You should know that.
00:12:46 That is a cellular telephone
00:12:48 so I can get a hold of you wherever,
00:12:51 - Can somebody get me an aspirin, please?
00:12:54 Glad to have you aboard, Hayes!
00:13:00 - Hi.
00:13:02 Four weeks from now,
00:13:05 will select their next Democratic nominee
00:13:09 Now, if Bill Clinton wins,
00:13:11 I want you to all understand
00:13:14 of the commitment and the energy
00:13:19 And I mean that. That's just a fact.
00:13:21 Now, that's how important the work is.
00:13:24 That each and every one of you is...
00:13:30 What am I doing here?
00:13:33 It's the new guy.
00:13:37 - Hey.
00:13:43 - Can I get a pack of Morley Red, please?
00:13:47 3.25? These are $2.15
00:13:51 So go back to Madison.
00:13:53 - Don't forget to write.
00:13:55 Hold it! Stop. Stop right there!
00:13:58 You smoked?
00:14:00 No. Yeah.
00:14:02 But I didn't mean to tell you that.
00:14:06 Listen. I was young, and I was stupid,
00:14:11 I promise you.
00:14:12 Is there anything else you should tell me?
00:14:16 Probably not.
00:14:24 - Can I get 10 copies?
00:14:26 No, they're for Arthur.
00:14:29 So if you wouldn't mind...
00:14:31 You're the toilet paper guy.
00:14:33 Wait. Who's that?
00:14:37 Yes. I am, in fact, the toilet paper guy,
00:14:40 but feel free to call me
00:14:42 Or Todd in Accounting calls me Crystal,
00:14:47 - How many copies?
00:14:50 - These?
00:14:54 What made you become
00:14:56 I'm not. This is a money gig.
00:14:59 which is better than babysitting, which is
00:15:03 You're a Democrat, right?
00:15:05 Why does everyone have to be
00:15:08 I'm struggling with the copy machine.
00:15:09 No, hold on.
00:15:12 I am nothing.
00:15:15 Why do I have to have an opinion
00:15:18 I mean, really,
00:15:21 or Social Security, or the tax code?
00:15:23 What about civil rights or women's rights?
00:15:26 A woman's right to do what she wants
00:15:28 I do what I want with my body.
00:15:31 That's apathetic.
00:15:33 - I'm not apathetic.
00:15:35 I'm not. I just know that these bozos
00:15:39 they don't care about anything more
00:15:41 That's absolutely not true.
00:15:42 You think this guy, Bill Clinton,
00:15:45 - I do.
00:15:47 - Okay, that's where you're wrong.
00:15:49 You're wrong. He's gonna make
00:15:51 He's gonna make a difference with women.
00:15:53 - My God.
00:15:56 Read his plans on health care.
00:15:58 - Okay, or don't. You know, yeah.
00:15:59 - Yeah, I'm sorry.
00:16:00 - I'm really sorry.
00:16:02 Wake up to a new America.
00:16:03 - I believe you.
00:16:05 - Fine. You convinced me. You're nothing.
00:16:08 in front of all of you...
00:16:10 Hey! Listen up! Look up, everybody!
00:16:14 Yes, I was Bill Clinton's
00:16:17 Hey, somebody turn it up.
00:16:18 For the past two years, I have lied to the
00:16:22 The truth is, I loved him.
00:16:26 Now he tells me to deny it.
00:16:28 Well, I'm sick of all of the deceit,
00:16:35 Well, you're right about one thing.
00:16:39 - This has been fun. Yeah.
00:16:43 Bye, copy girl.
00:16:45 Oh, my God. It never ends.
00:16:47 They just keep playing it
00:16:49 - It's gonna blow over.
00:16:50 People don't really care about this stuff.
00:16:51 - That's the thing.
00:16:53 I've heard Bush has a mistress.
00:16:56 Everybody's talking about it, so why
00:16:59 She's trashy.
00:17:02 I mean, her hair alone
00:17:04 Big deal. Everyone has their weaknesses,
00:17:07 Those chubby redheads
00:17:10 - That's what Daddy likes.
00:17:12 Gareth, you are unfailingly repugnant.
00:17:14 Hey. That is a coincidence. I love women
00:17:18 You know what I love?
00:17:20 I love long-haired brunettes
00:17:22 I have no idea why.
00:17:24 I got that one, too.
00:17:26 I got a thing for guys
00:17:30 You might wanna look at that.
00:17:32 I am fine with that.
00:17:34 - To Bill and his weaknesses.
00:17:36 - To Bill.
00:17:44 Hello?
00:17:45 Hey! It's me!
00:17:47 - Is that Emily?
00:17:49 - Hi, Emily!
00:17:51 What's all that noise?
00:17:52 Nothing. That's just a couple of idiots
00:17:56 because they don't have a beautiful
00:18:01 You're drunk.
00:18:02 You're beautiful.
00:18:03 - You're horny.
00:18:07 Emily? Come to New York.
00:18:10 You'll love it here.
00:18:13 Whoa, did you just say "energy"?
00:18:17 What?
00:18:20 You're never coming back.
00:18:22 Hey, come on, now.
00:18:27 You're right. I'm sorry.
00:18:30 Did you call Summer?
00:18:32 No. I left her a message.
00:18:38 Hey. You okay?
00:18:41 Yeah. I'm just really lonely here,
00:18:43 and I miss you like crazy,
00:18:48 Yeah. I know what you mean.
00:19:12 - Hey. What are you doing up?
00:19:16 Come on, you've been staring
00:19:22 How was the rest of your evening?
00:19:24 Oh, my goodness. I'm in big trouble.
00:19:30 You know, that's usually a good thing.
00:19:32 It's hard enough to get elected
00:19:35 without having Julia Roberts
00:19:38 That is an impressive mental leap, Russ,
00:19:41 going from a one-night stand
00:19:46 Open it.
00:19:47 I know you're dying to know what's inside.
00:19:50 Just her name alone, Summer Hartley,
00:19:54 Look it! You got a tear right there! I see it.
00:19:57 Come on through. You can do it.
00:20:00 Thank you. Yes.
00:20:07 - It's a diary.
00:20:09 No! Stop! Stop right there.
00:20:14 " The boys' dorm is across
00:20:19 "The evenings are hot and sticky.
00:20:22 "We are all half-dressed,
00:20:26 "Some of us are bold. My new friend
00:20:30 "Emily is sweet
00:20:33 "and embarrassed by it all,
00:20:38 Don't stop! This is good stuff.
00:20:43 "It's our last night, and the plan has
00:20:47 "Emily and I are the last to leave,
00:20:49 "and as we reach the stairs,
00:20:54 "She looks up at me expectantly
00:21:00 - Do you?
00:21:02 Oh, my goodness!
00:21:05 What are you doing?
00:21:10 Wait a minute.
00:21:13 Is that your Emily?
00:21:15 Good night, Russell!
00:21:18 She is a freak!
00:21:20 Put the picture back!
00:21:36 Wow.
00:21:42 - Who is it?
00:21:47 You a Jehovah's Witness?
00:21:50 No.
00:21:51 Christ, you're tall.
00:21:55 Hi.
00:22:07 - Come in.
00:22:09 Close the door behind you.
00:22:12 Lock it!
00:22:14 Summer said to hang tight.
00:22:19 - What do you got in there?
00:22:24 Yeah. I'm her daddy.
00:22:41 - Drink?
00:22:44 Early. You're fresh off the boat, aren't you?
00:22:47 So tell me about yourself. What's your deal?
00:22:52 What are your dreams?
00:22:55 What do you want to be when you grow up?
00:22:58 - Sit down!
00:22:59 What do you do now? You...
00:23:00 Wait, don't tell me.
00:23:02 - No.
00:23:03 Wall Street. No!
00:23:04 You kiss ass to some fancy uptown law firm.
00:23:07 - Actually...
00:23:11 I'm working for Bill Clinton.
00:23:14 No.
00:23:16 I know who Bill Clinton is.
00:23:17 Yeah, in fact, I know more about Bill Clinton
00:23:20 - Really?
00:23:21 - What do you do?
00:23:24 I drink!
00:23:26 Drink!
00:23:28 Be a man.
00:23:32 There you go! Isn't that better?
00:23:36 Swallow!
00:23:39 So tell me about Bill Clinton.
00:23:44 Hey. Wake up.
00:23:57 You want some aspirin?
00:24:05 - You must be Will.
00:24:08 I see you drank my boyfriend
00:24:12 - He's not your father?
00:24:17 He's my thesis advisor.
00:24:19 Oh.
00:24:20 What else did he tell you?
00:24:21 He was telling me how to be a real man,
00:24:25 - boy-man I seem to be.
00:24:29 Yeah, there's a lot of drinking involved.
00:24:31 Also cursing and fighting.
00:24:34 - Sex?
00:24:35 Although that's not what we real men call it.
00:24:37 What do you call it?
00:24:40 I have something for you.
00:24:45 - Haven't talked to her in ages.
00:24:49 Uh-huh.
00:24:52 Oh, please! Daddy.
00:24:58 Oh, come on! No.
00:25:01 Oh, this is...
00:25:12 Did you read this?
00:25:15 I didn't.
00:25:20 - I read a page.
00:25:22 - Two pages at the most.
00:25:24 And the part about you and Emily
00:25:27 - Oh! That part, yeah.
00:25:33 You're a great writer. I mean...
00:25:35 I think you should keep it.
00:25:38 - I can't. It's your diary, so I can't do that.
00:25:42 I've already got it memorized,
00:25:44 Keep a hard copy.
00:25:49 I wonder why Emily gave it to you
00:25:55 Hampton?
00:25:57 - Hampton?
00:26:00 That's Hampton Roth.
00:26:02 - His book on the McGovern campaign is...
00:26:06 - You...
00:26:10 Look, have you ever actually
00:26:13 - I haven't.
00:26:16 Well, actually, I'm not judging. Look at you.
00:26:19 You're beautiful. You're sophisticated.
00:26:22 Thank you.
00:26:23 I mean, to please a woman like you,
00:26:26 - Real man.
00:26:28 - Hard to compete with that.
00:26:34 - Yep, nice to meet you.
00:26:38 I feel horrible about taking the...
00:26:53 Sorry.
00:26:56 I was just curious.
00:26:58 Hampton encourages me
00:27:03 He says it's the key
00:27:06 Yeah.
00:27:07 Summer! Daddy's hungry!
00:27:12 - Speak of the devil. Better go. Yeah.
00:27:14 Where the hell are you?
00:27:15 - Okay, bye.
00:27:17 Yeah, give us a call sometime.
00:27:21 I'd... Yeah, I'd love dinner.
00:27:23 - Yeah.
00:27:27 - Are you gonna call her?
00:27:29 - Well, what are you gonna do?
00:27:33 I'm gonna keep my eye on the ball.
00:27:37 Which may involve
00:27:39 Or foursome
00:27:42 You're not helping.
00:27:45 I never should have opened that diary.
00:27:50 What's a threesome?
00:27:52 - What?
00:27:56 That's a game that adults play sometimes
00:28:03 Whatever. So what happened with Emily?
00:28:06 Nothing. I wanted to wait
00:28:08 and then I decided to do
00:28:12 It was just one week
00:28:15 from bagels and toilet paper
00:28:23 Jesus! Mercy!
00:28:25 Hold, please.
00:28:27 What am I doing here?
00:28:33 Move over! Another foot!
00:28:38 Over, over, over!
00:28:45 Just want to let everyone know
00:28:48 They're looking good.
00:28:50 I wrote three speeches
00:28:53 How's high school?
00:28:54 He's from Texas. His name's George Bush.
00:28:58 Instead, he's the eldest son
00:29:01 and considered a key
00:29:03 Bryant, well, you forgot to mention
00:29:05 Oh, okay.
00:29:06 Man, if this guy's smart,
00:29:08 - No kidding.
00:29:10 - No.
00:29:11 Hayes! Where is Hayes? Hayes!
00:29:15 Is it true you graduated first
00:29:18 - Yeah.
00:29:20 - Come on. We're walking.
00:29:22 Here's a list of Madison graduates
00:29:24 These people earn 200 grand plus a year.
00:29:26 We have a $10,000-a-plate fundraiser
00:29:29 I can't have that, Hayes.
00:29:32 Hold on. No more coffee, bagels?
00:29:34 - We'll see how this goes, okay?
00:29:35 - What?
00:29:39 - Okay, Hayes.
00:29:41 - There's the desk.
00:29:46 Yeah, that's funny, the toilet paper.
00:29:49 That's good because it's ironic.
00:29:51 Yeah, that's right, everybody. My desk.
00:29:55 Right here, I got a desk, and I got a list.
00:29:57 And I have a phone. And this empty basket.
00:30:00 No, no, no, I really don't agree
00:30:02 that the Governor has a character problem,
00:30:06 Did you know that
00:30:08 marijuana use should be legalized?
00:30:11 Hello?
00:30:12 No, no, no, he wasn't a draft dodger.
00:30:15 Besides, did you know that
00:30:18 that the Vietnam War
00:30:22 Both legs.
00:30:23 Wow, I am sorry. You must miss them.
00:30:28 Yes, I understand your concern,
00:30:35 that the Governor comes from
00:30:39 And hope is exactly what he stands for, so...
00:30:43 No, no, I know it's corny, but I also think
00:30:46 that sometimes corny is exactly
00:30:52 That would be wonderful. No, thank you.
00:30:55 Two seats.
00:30:57 Okay, great. Thank you, Mr. Bishop.
00:31:01 Yeah, the dinner's next Thursday.
00:31:04 Yes, when I spoke with Hillary this morning
00:31:06 she said that she wanted to get to know
00:31:11 No, I think you'd definitely
00:31:14 Yeah.
00:31:17 An entire table? No, that is very possible.
00:31:20 I'll put you down for one table, then.
00:31:24 Okay, I look forward
00:31:26 Okay, thank you.
00:31:31 I just sold an entire table for $50,000.
00:31:41 That's my guy, Will. My guy.
00:31:48 Toilet paper guy! Toilet paper guy!
00:31:52 Good evening, gentlemen.
00:31:55 3.60. New tax and a new warning.
00:31:59 Christ.
00:32:01 Tell us the truth, my friend.
00:32:03 - Did that Clinton inhale or not?
00:32:06 That's like if your girlfriend catches you
00:32:09 "But we didn't do it."
00:32:11 - What, is that gonna matter to her?
00:32:14 - Hello.
00:32:18 4.25.
00:32:19 4.25? You pay $4.25
00:32:23 They don't put as many chemicals in them.
00:32:25 - So those are healthy cigarettes.
00:32:28 So if there's not as many chemicals in them,
00:32:30 they should cost less, not more,
00:32:33 They put saltpeter in your cigarettes,
00:32:36 which make them burn faster,
00:32:39 Which means, at the end of the day,
00:32:47 Copy girl,
00:32:50 is the picture of the eagle
00:32:53 Some reassuring idea about your lifestyle.
00:32:58 - You wanna bet?
00:33:00 - 20 bucks.
00:33:03 Easiest 20 bucks I ever made.
00:33:04 - Really?
00:33:05 That's funny.
00:33:07 Okay, we have to inhale at the same time
00:33:10 - Yep.
00:33:23 - It's my birthday today.
00:33:35 Why aren't you out celebrating?
00:33:38 My boyfriend, Lucas, was taking me out
00:33:42 But at last minute, he gets a gig in Philly,
00:33:56 Truth is he's far more interested in being
00:33:57 the next Kurt Cobain
00:34:01 Who's Kurt Cobain?
00:34:04 You're kidding me!
00:34:07 What?
00:34:09 Smoke.
00:34:16 Oh.
00:34:17 - Look at that.
00:34:25 - All right.
00:34:28 The satisfaction of me being right
00:34:30 and you being wrong
00:34:33 Well, I never welsh on a bet,
00:34:35 I'll take you out for dinner,
00:34:38 - What do you say?
00:34:40 No, I didn't mean it like that.
00:34:42 Like an "I feel sorry for you
00:34:43 "because it's your birthday
00:34:46 - You know, one of those.
00:34:48 You can take me to this party
00:34:51 because there's no way
00:35:01 Yeah, I'm gonna go head over...
00:35:05 Whoa.
00:35:08 I think I'm a little out of my league here.
00:35:10 Yes, you are.
00:35:17 So Emily is what, like,
00:35:20 - It's amazing how you do that.
00:35:22 The way you take the simplest statement,
00:35:24 and then you twist it with
00:35:27 - It's really, actually, impressive. I'm amazed.
00:35:30 - But I understand. I get it.
00:35:33 - See, you did it again.
00:35:34 - Yeah.
00:35:36 It's probably hard for you to imagine
00:35:39 without even the slightest hint of
00:35:43 Well, if your deal with Emily
00:35:46 then why don't you just marry her?
00:35:48 What's stopping you?
00:35:51 Nothing.
00:35:54 - Wow.
00:35:58 She gets it tomorrow. I made a reservation
00:36:00 at some fancy French restaurant
00:36:02 Oh, my God. You're doing it
00:36:06 - Yeah, I am. What's wrong with that?
00:36:10 What are you gonna say?
00:36:12 - I'm still working on it. I don't know.
00:36:15 You should practice with me.
00:36:19 I'm Emily, your college sweetheart.
00:36:24 - Emily...
00:36:26 No, I'm not getting down on my knee.
00:36:28 She'll like it.
00:36:31 - I'm not getting down on my knee.
00:36:36 - Emily.
00:36:38 Don't make me laugh. Emily,
00:36:41 will you,
00:36:43 um,
00:36:46 marry me?
00:36:48 - No.
00:36:52 Well, what do you mean,
00:36:54 I haven't seen you in weeks!
00:36:55 You don't look happy or excited
00:36:58 You're asking me to give up my freedom,
00:37:02 my joie de vivre
00:37:04 for an institution that fails
00:37:07 And why should I marry you, anyway?
00:37:10 Besides some bourgeois desire to fulfill
00:37:14 from an early age to promote
00:37:18 Oh, my God!
00:37:20 - You should've got on your knee!
00:37:26 Here.
00:37:28 I wanna marry you
00:37:31 that I want to look at
00:37:33 and the only one I wanna kiss goodnight.
00:37:36 Because the first time
00:37:40 I couldn't imagine
00:37:43 But mainly, when you love someone
00:37:49 getting married is the only thing left to do.
00:37:52 So will you...
00:37:57 Um...
00:38:01 marry me?
00:38:03 Definitely. Maybe.
00:38:07 I have to think about it.
00:38:11 Walk me home?
00:38:23 - Do you want a cup of tea?
00:38:30 Hey.
00:38:31 How come you have so many copies
00:38:33 - It's a long story.
00:38:37 It seems to be about 300 pages or so.
00:38:41 Seriously, why?
00:38:44 For my 13th birthday,
00:38:48 and instead my dad bought me
00:38:52 And inside, he wrote a beautiful inscription,
00:38:56 seeing as I was so pissed
00:38:59 which was tragic as it turned out 'cause
00:39:04 What do you mean?
00:39:06 He died three weeks later in a car accident.
00:39:09 Jesus. That's awful.
00:39:13 I'm sorry.
00:39:15 - Have you ever read it?
00:39:18 I read it every year or two.
00:39:21 It tells me different things.
00:39:24 Anyhow, when I went away to college,
00:39:29 and somewhere along the way,
00:39:32 Now, every time I pass
00:39:36 I look for the copy that my dad
00:39:40 I know I'll never find it.
00:39:41 It's stupid, but it's become this,
00:39:46 - It's not stupid.
00:39:50 What are all these?
00:39:52 Oh, these are the ones
00:39:59 "With love and hopes and dreams
00:40:07 What is this?
00:40:08 This is Kurt Cobain.
00:40:13 Yeah, I do.
00:40:16 You think it's ridiculous
00:40:19 - Yes.
00:40:21 No, no, I get the whole politician thing.
00:40:25 That's true. That's very true.
00:40:28 I just wonder if you want people
00:40:33 That's also true.
00:40:35 I should want them to hate me.
00:40:37 I'm gonna start working on that right away.
00:40:40 No, but you're off to a great start.
00:40:41 - Yeah?
00:40:43 Good.
00:40:44 What do you wanna be when you grow up?
00:40:45 I mean, you're too smart
00:40:48 - and babysitting.
00:40:49 - I don't know!
00:40:52 I don't know,
00:40:58 You know what I really wanna do
00:41:01 is I wanna go to all those places
00:41:06 I've been saving money.
00:41:08 But I can't even get it together to do that.
00:41:10 Probably because I'm stuck in a rut
00:41:12 You should dump him.
00:41:14 I know that's none of my business,
00:41:19 You are.
00:41:23 - You know what's really cool?
00:41:26 We can just sit here
00:41:29 - flirting or all the attraction stuff.
00:41:35 Very cool.
00:41:37 Yeah.
00:41:55 I got to go.
00:42:00 Dumbass!
00:43:07 - Oh, God.
00:43:09 - Told you he wouldn't be long.
00:43:13 - I took the red-eye!
00:43:17 I was just telling Emily how Arthur sent you
00:43:22 - Advance team.
00:43:24 - How'd it go? Man, it went great!
00:43:28 - Great.
00:43:30 - Are you okay?
00:43:33 - I ran up the stairs.
00:43:35 I'm going to the office. It's...
00:43:39 - And you.
00:43:41 Okay.
00:43:43 Good luck.
00:43:47 - Hi.
00:43:50 - Here.
00:43:54 Hey.
00:44:04 - It's weird. Your tongue tastes different.
00:44:08 It tastes different, your tongue.
00:44:09 - That is weird.
00:44:14 Maybe it's the tap water here.
00:44:17 Or the pH balance...
00:44:20 Told you New York was gonna change you.
00:44:24 - Could we maybe go for a walk?
00:44:27 - Just to get some air?
00:44:29 I would love that.
00:44:31 So, did I ever tell you...
00:44:32 - Oh, sorry. No, go.
00:44:35 I was gonna say, did I ever tell you
00:44:41 No.
00:44:44 Well, Dad was on his way
00:44:47 and he runs into his ex-girlfriend,
00:44:52 And they're talking,
00:44:55 and all these old feelings,
00:44:57 And he's thinking,
00:45:00 "I could run away right now
00:45:03 "be a happy man.
00:45:05 "All I have to do is kiss her."
00:45:07 But instead, he looks up,
00:45:13 and he sees my mom
00:45:17 And that moment he knows
00:45:21 You understand?
00:45:25 Am I Caroline Hopper in this story
00:45:30 Oh, my God! I'm your mom!
00:45:31 - Emily, when I saw you this morning...
00:45:33 ...I knew...
00:45:34 - Just stand up, Will. Stop.
00:45:36 - Wait, wait, wait.
00:45:37 - Let's think about this.
00:45:39 It's just like the day that my...
00:45:40 Will!
00:45:42 I slept with Charlie!
00:45:50 I thought we had a plan.
00:45:53 Well, you had a plan, Will.
00:45:57 - Pretty sure we both had that plan.
00:45:59 - that I want to be part of it anymore.
00:46:00 - when we made it.
00:46:02 How do you tell someone
00:46:03 that you don't want the same things
00:46:05 - they want anymore?
00:46:06 Definitely having sex with the roommate.
00:46:11 It was cowardly, and I'm sorry.
00:46:13 Oh, good.
00:46:22 You're killing me.
00:46:26 No, I'm not. I'm letting you go.
00:46:29 'Cause if we stay together, Will,
00:46:32 I'm gonna hold you back from all these...
00:46:33 - That's not true.
00:46:36 And then, eventually,
00:46:39 - No.
00:46:40 Will, I don't want that,
00:46:45 Trust me.
00:46:51 You're gonna be just fine, Mr. Hayes,
00:46:54 without me.
00:46:57 Wow.
00:46:59 Yeah.
00:47:01 Wow.
00:47:06 Good evening. Bill Clinton may have
00:47:09 but the big question tonight is,
00:47:11 Because, after all, he is the big survivor,
00:47:14 in the New York primary
00:47:33 Goes 'round the moon
00:47:36 I see the passion in your eyes
00:47:41 Sometimes it's all a big surprise
00:47:46 'Cause there was a time when all I did
00:48:04 Hey.
00:48:06 Congratulations.
00:48:08 I hear they asked you to stay on.
00:48:11 Yeah, yeah, he did, and I am.
00:48:15 Really? Why do I feel
00:48:18 And the staplers and those scissors?
00:48:19 I'll be fine. But this song,
00:48:23 I know. What about the dancing?
00:48:29 I'm sorry about the other night.
00:48:32 It's okay. I just didn't think
00:48:35 - Or Emily, for that matter.
00:48:38 Besides, you and me,
00:48:43 Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:46 - Oil and water.
00:48:49 - That's gross. That's just gross.
00:48:51 Yeah. No, thank you.
00:48:53 - I'd be honored.
00:48:54 - They were good together.
00:48:56 and then they couldn't even be friends.
00:49:00 - I think we can, at least, manage that.
00:49:07 - Enchanté.
00:49:13 - Come on, let's dance.
00:49:15 - Why?
00:49:23 You ready?
00:49:36 Guess that's it for Emily.
00:49:38 I can't believe that
00:49:43 - I can't believe it, either.
00:49:48 - Anybody else?
00:49:50 I was too busy working on the campaign.
00:49:52 Anyway, when Clinton got elected,
00:49:54 Russell and I started our own
00:49:57 and we worked on campaigns for everybody.
00:49:59 City council, state senate.
00:50:01 We even did one for the local dog catcher.
00:50:03 That's very interesting, Dad,
00:50:07 - What about Mom?
00:50:10 - But nothing serious.
00:50:14 Well, a week after Kurt Cobain died,
00:50:17 She went traveling.
00:50:19 She traveled all over the world,
00:50:22 And she says
00:50:26 that I said to her on her birthday.
00:50:28 Anyway, we started writing postcards.
00:50:31 And before I knew it, even though
00:50:34 we became great friends.
00:50:41 It was 1994,
00:50:44 More jobs, more money.
00:50:46 That was the start of the Internet.
00:50:50 had a cell phone.
00:50:51 Can you hear me now?
00:50:52 Which they never put down.
00:50:55 And then, our old boss, Arthur Robredo
00:51:01 - This just came for you.
00:51:03 I had finally made it inside the room.
00:51:07 - Gareth.
00:51:09 Good morning.
00:51:10 Hey, let's get this party started.
00:51:12 What's the word from upstate?
00:51:14 For the first time,
00:51:17 instead of the other way around.
00:51:19 "The most endangered species in our nation
00:51:22 "isn't a big woodpecker
00:51:25 "It's the tongue in our heads!
00:51:28 "Listen to the truncated
00:51:32 "The average vocabulary is a third
00:51:35 "Words fall out of our mouths
00:51:39 "The landscape of vocabulary
00:51:42 "and grubbed up by the dribble
00:51:46 "poisoned by lazy obscenity..."
00:51:48 Will?
00:51:49 "...infantilized by
00:51:51 - Hey.
00:51:53 It's my favorite man-boy.
00:51:58 Well, thank you, thank you. That's the aim.
00:52:02 - How's Emily?
00:52:06 She's starring in
00:52:09 Oh.
00:52:10 - How's the Professor?
00:52:15 - He's funny.
00:52:19 Told me it was for my own good.
00:52:22 Everybody seems to be
00:52:27 What have you been up to?
00:52:30 I'm writing these really dumb items
00:52:35 Waiting for my big break.
00:52:37 "And 'syntax' isn't
00:52:43 - I'm gonna go listen to the Professor.
00:52:45 Nice glasses.
00:52:46 "Listen to your kids if you can."
00:52:49 Thank you.
00:52:52 William Hayes!
00:52:57 From... Don't tell me!
00:52:59 Wisconsin! Yes, the Cheese State.
00:53:04 Very nice of you
00:53:06 - I'll have another, please.
00:53:07 Yeah. Summer tells me you're writing
00:53:12 - She tells me you're dating a sophomore.
00:53:16 which, on a good day,
00:53:21 Walk with me. Why would you
00:53:24 As I recall from our first encounter,
00:53:31 Don't tell me you're just another
00:53:35 You were wonderful, darling.
00:53:39 - Nice? Yeah, he can handle himself.
00:53:42 First of all, Arthur Robredo is not a hack.
00:53:45 He was a cop, an entrepreneur.
00:53:48 He's a putz.
00:53:52 Here. Read it. It's free.
00:53:54 Beauty, ideals,
00:53:59 - It's all about power and money.
00:54:02 and you're completely obsessed
00:54:04 That's because he doesn't have any.
00:54:06 Babe, I am about the love.
00:54:09 - As you know.
00:54:10 That's why you keep me around.
00:54:11 To keep that rampant,
00:54:17 I have a thought.
00:54:19 Why don't you use that newly acquired
00:54:24 to get Summer here
00:54:29 That way Summer gets a break,
00:00:03 I guess it's the love. More of the love.
00:00:07 More love.
00:00:09 - I knew Summer would be back.
00:00:11 You know what? At first,
00:00:13 But now I'm kinda liking her.
00:00:17 I wanted to, but I couldn't
00:00:42 - Wow. This is pretty good.
00:00:52 Are you sure
00:00:54 No, it's perfect. It's absolutely...
00:00:57 You know, there's one part, though,
00:01:01 "William Hayes,
00:01:02 "Robredo's chief speech writer,
00:01:08 - Boyishly? I mean...
00:01:11 You know, I originally wrote,
00:01:13 "William Hayes has seductive eyes
00:01:17 "whose clothes you wanna rip
00:01:19 but the editor made me change it.
00:01:22 There's just no room for truth in journalism.
00:01:26 Did you always want to be a journalist?
00:01:28 No. Until I was 16, I wanted to be an actress.
00:01:33 Wow. Really?
00:01:35 Yeah, really. Is that hard to believe?
00:01:38 Well, aren't actresses needy and emotional
00:01:42 That sort of thing.
00:01:43 What are you saying? That I don't need?
00:01:47 - I'm an incredibly needy person.
00:01:49 - I'm a very needy person.
00:01:50 I'm saying I would love to hear a song.
00:01:53 - I'm sorry?
00:01:56 - You want me to sing you a song?
00:02:00 - You have a favorite?
00:02:03 - You do?
00:02:07 Okay.
00:02:11 How glad the many millions
00:02:16 Of Timothys and Williams would be
00:02:20 - I'm a William.
00:02:23 To capture me
00:02:25 But you had such persistence
00:02:29 You wore down my resistance
00:02:31 I fell
00:02:34 And it was swell
00:02:43 Will you please put it on?
00:02:49 You know, it really isn't so bad.
00:02:51 You know what the funny part is?
00:02:56 I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
00:03:03 Frank Sinatra, Linda Ronstadt.
00:03:06 - Why?
00:03:06 Well, if you look on the back,
00:03:12 - I've Got A Crush On You.
00:03:15 - How's it going?
00:03:20 Yeah, me, too.
00:03:26 - Yeah, I'm about done.
00:03:28 The world will pardon my mush
00:03:34 'Cause I've got a crush, my baby, on...
00:04:08 Was I snoring?
00:04:16 You know what I've never done?
00:04:20 What?
00:04:22 I've never spent the whole day in bed
00:04:26 Me, neither.
00:04:28 I'm serious.
00:04:31 I always think of something
00:04:34 I'm a workaholic.
00:04:37 It's really bad.
00:04:43 Will you spend
00:04:48 We do nothing.
00:05:07 Hi, this is Summer. Please leave a message,
00:05:12 This is Dr. Levenstein
00:05:13 from the Columbia Presbyterian
00:05:16 Emergency room? Hello?
00:05:18 - Mr. Roth has had an aortal rupture.
00:05:22 Think of it like a tire blowing out
00:05:25 after going too fast for way too long.
00:05:30 How's that, Mr. Roth? Are you comfortable?
00:05:33 I make a living.
00:05:37 Come on, sweetheart, give me a smile.
00:05:43 Poor Hampton.
00:05:46 Summer's come.
00:05:51 - What's he doing here?
00:05:54 Hello.
00:05:58 One thing they've left intact.
00:06:01 No, no, no, no, no, no,
00:06:03 Don't mention osmosis.
00:06:04 It's killing me
00:06:07 Really? It's not the booze
00:06:11 - That has nothing to do with this.
00:06:14 Listen, I want you to know
00:06:19 except for one, which is for you.
00:06:22 - Sweetie, that's so kind.
00:06:27 My heart, stupid.
00:06:33 Please tell me you're not in love with him.
00:06:36 I can't do that.
00:06:42 Can I have a cigarette?
00:06:45 Not happening.
00:06:49 Nobody's dying.
00:06:53 What do you care
00:06:56 You're the one who set us up, remember?
00:06:58 Yeah, well, I kind of figured
00:07:01 You're such a sweetie.
00:07:06 - I read the Robredo piece.
00:07:11 The guy's been in New York politics
00:07:13 and all you can dig up
00:07:18 What are you saying, Hampton?
00:07:22 Do your job.
00:07:31 I can't believe
00:07:35 - Look at that.
00:07:38 We've come a long way
00:07:40 Thank you very much.
00:07:42 I don't believe it! I don't believe it!
00:07:44 Which idiot forgot to check the menus
00:07:47 There's no union seal
00:07:50 Are you serious?
00:07:51 The hotel workers won't let anybody
00:07:52 The Teamsters
00:07:54 Has anyone seen Robert Klein?
00:07:56 I was with him like an hour ago.
00:07:57 I think he was completely plastered.
00:07:59 How are we supposed to know
00:08:00 You're not gonna believe this,
00:08:03 Who cares about Chicago?
00:08:04 We do.
00:08:06 - Okay, okay.
00:08:08 Let me ask you a question.
00:08:10 - What? What are you talking about?
00:08:12 Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:08:14 Hey, deep breath, okay?
00:08:18 see if we can use the Internet connection
00:08:20 - I'll call Klein's agent.
00:08:22 Gareth, have a drink.
00:08:23 You, I don't know who you are,
00:08:26 Be great if you wore underwear.
00:08:29 Table seven's up. Six pasta. Two fish.
00:08:36 He may not be in your union,
00:08:38 but he still happens to be
00:08:41 Remember him? So if I was you,
00:08:42 - I'd get your men off that truck and in this...
00:08:44 You can't talk to a Teamster like that!
00:08:47 - This guy...
00:08:48 Look, look, check it out.
00:08:49 I downloaded a copy of the union seal.
00:08:51 If you could just please
00:08:52 make 500 copies, use a union shop.
00:08:56 Copies? You want me to make copies?
00:09:00 Well, at some point, we all make copies.
00:09:03 That's not funny, Hayes. That's very...
00:09:05 Yeah, that's real mature.
00:09:07 I'm walking! Back in half an hour.
00:09:10 What a dick.
00:09:14 - Yeah.
00:09:16 Speaking.
00:09:17 I'm watching you right now.
00:09:19 And I know all about you
00:09:23 In fact, I know so much,
00:09:26 Really?
00:09:29 Who am I speaking with?
00:09:30 Why don't we meet, and you'll find out?
00:09:33 - Where are you?
00:09:36 I don't have a lot of experience with
00:09:42 You're getting warm.
00:09:45 You're hot.
00:09:47 You're hot.
00:09:49 You are so hot!
00:09:54 I got you!
00:09:56 I thought you were gone
00:09:58 No, I thought so, too,
00:10:01 I mean, I was camping
00:10:04 with all these really cool people,
00:10:08 brooding and sexy,
00:10:12 One night I'm dancing with Paco
00:10:15 - an incredible, deep kiss.
00:10:17 - And what do I do?
00:10:20 I start crying.
00:10:21 I mean, tears are rolling...
00:10:22 - ...down my cheeks...
00:10:24 ...which he doesn't notice 'cause, of course,
00:10:27 which felt nice,
00:10:30 'cause in a flash
00:10:31 I saw our entire relationship,
00:10:35 I mean, the incredibly hot start, with Paco
00:10:40 - What are we doing here?
00:10:43 Just take a second.
00:10:44 And then the inevitable moment,
00:10:47 - Hello.
00:10:48 I don't know why it happens,
00:10:51 when all that love and admiration
00:10:53 and he'd find some way to hurt me.
00:10:56 I mean, sure, after, he'd be sorry.
00:10:58 So...
00:11:00 I decided to unlock his beautiful lips
00:11:03 remove his hand from my ass,
00:11:08 - and I walked away.
00:11:12 - I walked away, Will! From Paco!
00:11:14 - No one walks away from Paco!
00:11:17 And it felt life-changing.
00:11:19 And I realized I had to tell someone.
00:11:22 When I realized who that person was,
00:11:24 - it was so unexpected.
00:11:26 It's like when something is staring you
00:11:28 and it's like you're too blind to see it.
00:11:31 What's that?
00:11:34 I have some news for you, too.
00:11:43 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:11:44 Don't you think it's a little weird we've been
00:11:45 writing each other for however long
00:11:47 and somehow you neglect to tell me that,
00:11:49 A, you've fallen in love,
00:11:54 Disse-te que andava
00:11:55 - I told you I was dating someone.
00:11:56 You just bought
00:11:59 I'm sorry.
00:12:00 Why would you be nervous to tell me?
00:12:05 I don't know.
00:12:07 I love this girl so much.
00:12:10 I'd just really like you to be happy for me.
00:12:14 I can be happy for you.
00:12:22 Poor April.
00:12:23 She's like the character in the story
00:12:27 Then she realized
00:12:30 She wants to be the girlfriend,
00:12:33 What do you mean?
00:12:34 Weren't you listening?
00:12:43 There's union seals
00:12:46 The weather cleared in Chicago.
00:12:50 Where's Russ?
00:12:51 Gonna meet you and Arthur
00:12:53 I'm funnier over here.
00:12:56 I can't stop my leg
00:13:05 You're early.
00:13:12 Good to see you.
00:13:14 - You look great.
00:13:15 - That's a nice tie.
00:13:20 So, the magazine asked me
00:13:24 - Great.
00:13:28 It's...
00:13:31 You just read it.
00:13:33 - You already wrote it.
00:13:44 - He did this?
00:13:46 They actually got a friend an early parole.
00:13:51 You know what?
00:13:56 and you're way ahead in all the polls.
00:13:58 Yeah, see, I don't think that's gonna matter,
00:13:59 because he's the tough-on-crime Democrat.
00:14:02 That's...
00:14:04 When people read this...
00:14:09 Summer, listen to me.
00:14:11 If you hand this in, we won't survive it.
00:14:14 I think it'll be a big deal for about a week,
00:14:16 and then the storm will pass...
00:14:17 I'm talking about you and me.
00:14:21 "Candidate Brought Down
00:14:25 - Come on.
00:14:28 I didn't do it the first time around.
00:14:31 And if I didn't write this,
00:14:35 Let them.
00:14:37 Hey, don't hand this in, okay?
00:14:45 You already did.
00:15:03 Mr. Arthur...
00:15:06 Yeah, sure.
00:15:08 I really liked Summer.
00:15:10 I can't believe
00:15:11 - Heartbreaker?
00:15:13 - Opportunist? Double-crossing...
00:15:15 - Bitch.
00:15:17 How could she do that to you?
00:15:19 It's like she said. If she didn't write it,
00:15:23 And it was the truth.
00:15:24 So did she? Did she break it?
00:15:27 What?
00:15:34 What happened when the article came out?
00:15:52 You screwed up, man.
00:15:56 Please save it.
00:15:58 Whenever I figure out whatever
00:16:00 - I'll write you a letter!
00:16:02 So I lost my girl,
00:16:08 And for a long time,
00:16:13 But I wasn't the only one with problems.
00:16:15 I did not have
00:16:20 Miss Lewinsky.
00:16:22 I never told anybody to lie.
00:16:24 - Hello?
00:16:26 These allegations are false.
00:16:28 April?
00:16:29 Yeah, April. Who'd you think it was?
00:16:33 Of course I'm watching.
00:16:36 You think he did it, don't you?
00:16:38 I don't think, I know.
00:16:42 She's so his type.
00:16:46 So, what took you so long
00:16:49 I thought I lost you.
00:16:51 - Feels like years.
00:16:56 Yeah.
00:16:58 How are you? What's doing?
00:17:00 I got a new roommate, Olivia.
00:17:04 And I'm working at a bookstore.
00:17:06 But I've been thinking about
00:17:08 Cool.
00:17:10 Hey, did I tell you that I hate my job?
00:17:12 I used to love what I do,
00:17:15 - Are you seeing anyone?
00:17:20 In fact, I haven't had sex
00:17:23 Why bother? He's having enough sex
00:17:26 Easy. Easy now.
00:17:28 Hey, maybe you should
00:17:32 You know, it's funny
00:17:34 There's a fetching young intern
00:17:38 Great. Ask her out.
00:17:41 I should, shouldn't I?
00:17:43 But I don't think I will.
00:17:47 I want the real deal.
00:17:49 Forget about the real deal.
00:17:53 What does that mean?
00:17:56 It means that you get to a certain age
00:17:59 You know, you're ready for kids
00:18:03 - Sir.
00:18:04 - Table's ready. Okay.
00:18:06 You know what I mean?
00:18:07 And the person that you're with then,
00:18:11 So you're saying it's not who, but it's when.
00:18:13 - Exactly.
00:18:15 So there's never been a guy, ever,
00:18:19 "This is him. This is the one."
00:18:22 No.
00:18:24 Okay, then why aren't you out there,
00:18:27 I am.
00:18:28 - You are?
00:18:31 Right now I'm seeing this guy, Kevin.
00:18:34 - Kevin.
00:18:35 Who the hell's Kevin?
00:18:37 Where did... How come you never,
00:18:40 I'm mentioning him now.
00:18:43 Oh, God! They have fresh mint tea.
00:18:46 I love beer.
00:18:48 It depends upon
00:18:52 If it means "there is none"
00:18:55 that is a completely true statement.
00:19:04 Hey, this is April.
00:19:06 I want to talk to you about your birthday.
00:19:10 Hello. I hope this is the right number.
00:19:14 It's Emily!
00:19:17 I'm in New York, and I was thinking
00:19:20 maybe we could get a cup of coffee
00:19:24 My number...
00:19:27 Hey, it's April. I still need to talk to you.
00:19:31 I mean, don't make me come over there
00:19:36 Okay, I'm coming!
00:19:39 God, I'm coming.
00:19:42 Yeah, I get it.
00:19:47 What are you doing in there?
00:19:50 - Is this what you're wearing?
00:19:52 It's your birthday party.
00:19:56 Oh, Christ.
00:19:57 Five minutes, okay? Five...
00:20:02 - I'm down.
00:20:04 Yeah. I just need to lie here for a sec.
00:20:08 I see you've been eating noodles.
00:20:14 Hey, everybody, he's here!
00:20:22 Thanks.
00:20:24 Hi.
00:20:28 Oh, my God! I didn't think you'd be here!
00:20:31 I couldn't miss your birthday.
00:20:34 Happy birthday, gorgeous.
00:20:36 That is a beautiful woman right there.
00:20:38 You had your chance, pal.
00:20:40 Hayes.
00:20:47 Come on.
00:20:51 - It's great to see you.
00:20:54 Homeless, I know.
00:20:57 - Where's Kelly?
00:20:59 It's her first night out
00:21:04 Congratulations.
00:21:06 Iran-Contra. Arms for oil, no problem.
00:21:10 But a little "oralness"
00:21:15 - No politics!
00:21:18 Whoa, whoa, whoa! Wait! Did he say that?
00:21:20 Why not? I put my faith in him.
00:21:22 - We all did.
00:21:23 I thought he was gonna be different
00:21:25 but this guy,
00:21:29 What happens if they give him
00:21:33 - I'd vote for him again.
00:21:40 Will's a lot of fun.
00:21:41 Yeah, let's fill up the tub
00:21:43 That should be a good time.
00:21:48 Happy birthday to you
00:21:53 Happy birthday to you
00:21:58 Happy birthday, dear Will
00:22:02 - Where is he? Where's Will?
00:22:24 You missed your birthday cake.
00:22:27 - And I baked it.
00:22:32 Do you remember that song?
00:22:34 In your apartment?
00:22:36 Come as you are, as a friend
00:22:40 As a known enemy
00:22:42 - "Memory," not "enemy."
00:22:47 - Somebody had too much to drink.
00:22:51 I didn't, I didn't. I didn't.
00:22:52 - Yes, you did.
00:23:01 - God, you're beautiful.
00:23:07 What?
00:23:11 The thing is...
00:23:13 The thing is...
00:23:16 Is that I like you.
00:23:21 I've always liked you.
00:23:26 "Like."
00:23:28 That's pathetic. It's so puny.
00:23:33 "Love" on the other hand...
00:23:35 You'd run away from a word like that.
00:23:40 I love you.
00:23:45 I'm in love with you, April.
00:23:55 - Why didn't you ever tell me?
00:23:59 You know exactly why I never told you.
00:24:04 You're an idiot.
00:24:15 - Stop.
00:24:17 - Not like this.
00:24:19 Look at you, Will, you're a mess.
00:24:22 Why couldn't you have told me
00:24:25 - My shit is together.
00:24:29 You're a mess.
00:24:34 My shit is a mess?
00:24:37 That's interesting, coming from you, April.
00:24:41 You could do anything on earth,
00:24:47 What's that all about?
00:24:50 At least I tried. I went out there and I tried.
00:24:54 Look, I'm just saying this as a friend,
00:24:58 but maybe you should go out there
00:25:02 Go to rehab or life rehab
00:25:04 I don't even know if they have
00:25:07 Okay.
00:25:08 ...you know, you could be
00:25:10 I should go to "life rehab"?
00:25:11 Yeah.
00:25:16 Get off my front porch!
00:25:19 April?
00:25:44 You're right.
00:25:48 It is complicated, isn't it?
00:25:51 I mean, you're in love with April,
00:25:56 and then she fell in love with you,
00:25:58 who was always really in love with Hampton.
00:26:01 And now that you're in love with April,
00:26:06 And no one's in love with you.
00:26:09 That's complicated.
00:26:12 Yep.
00:26:14 Then what happened?
00:26:36 Jane Eyre, Random House, 1943.
00:26:39 It's a beautiful edition,
00:26:43 But there's a really nice dedication inside,
00:26:48 "To my darling daughter, April.
00:26:52 - "'In secret kept, in silence sealed...'"
00:26:54 "'The thoughts, the hopes
00:26:57 "'Whose charms were broken if revealed'
00:27:00 "From your loving father."
00:27:13 - Hi, Olivia.
00:27:16 - How you been?
00:27:17 I haven't heard any of your long
00:27:19 Those were delightful, weren't they?
00:27:22 - April here?
00:27:24 - School?
00:27:26 - She started grad school at NYU.
00:27:31 If you want to wait, she'll be home soon.
00:27:32 I'd love to.
00:27:34 Make yourself comfortable.
00:27:38 - Good luck.
00:28:03 Hey.
00:28:05 How you doing?
00:28:08 Kevin.
00:28:11 Will Hayes.
00:28:14 I'm just waiting for April.
00:28:18 Are you the same Kevin
00:28:22 I hope so. Unless she's collecting Kevins.
00:28:25 Kevin, phone!
00:28:27 Anyway, I'm pretty sure I am the only Kevin
00:29:10 Do you know what you want yet?
00:29:13 - No.
00:29:21 Will?
00:29:23 William Hayes?
00:29:25 God.
00:29:27 - It is!
00:29:29 You look beautiful.
00:29:32 Believe it or not,
00:29:37 - I'm pregnant.
00:29:39 - Really?
00:29:41 - Please, sit. Congratulations.
00:29:43 Who's the lucky guy?
00:29:45 - Sam Knowles.
00:29:46 But he's basically out of the picture.
00:29:49 - He didn't make the cut, huh?
00:29:51 Well, I don't need a guy. I never really did.
00:29:56 You were about the closest I ever got.
00:29:58 No, really, when I was with you,
00:30:03 But I screwed it up.
00:30:04 - No, you didn't.
00:30:07 Listen,
00:30:09 I'm having a little party Sunday.
00:30:14 - I want you to come.
00:30:16 4:00. No excuses.
00:30:20 Will you come? Please?
00:30:23 You know, I'll see if I can make it.
00:30:25 - I really want you to.
00:30:28 I want to make amends
00:30:30 And I figure it'll take about nine months,
00:30:34 which is perfect timing.
00:30:38 - And she's off. Bye.
00:30:42 William Hayes.
00:30:43 Dad, maybe this wasn't such a good idea.
00:30:46 - What?
00:30:49 this mystery love story.
00:30:52 What if I don't like who my mom is?
00:30:53 Of course you'll like who your mom is.
00:30:55 And you don't have to wait long to find out,
00:30:58 It's Summer, isn't it?
00:31:01 No wonder you didn't want to be with her.
00:31:03 Take it easy, Maya. It's just a story.
00:31:07 And this one has a happy ending.
00:31:10 How does it have a happy ending?
00:31:13 You and my mom, whoever she is,
00:31:18 What's the happy in that?
00:31:25 Okay, you know what?
00:31:27 No!
00:31:31 Then how about a nice cup of tea?
00:31:34 If you want, I'll still continue with the story.
00:31:37 - Maya?
00:31:45 Dad?
00:31:49 I can't believe you smoked
00:31:57 But I still love you.
00:33:02 Thanks.
00:33:03 All right. All right.
00:33:06 No, no. Don't eat it yet!
00:33:10 You're in a good mood.
00:33:11 Well, I think I discovered
00:33:15 - Really?
00:33:18 - Well, who is it?
00:33:22 So the last time we saw William Hayes,
00:33:25 he had just discovered that
00:33:28 was in love with another man.
00:33:31 I know. Shocking.
00:33:34 Meanwhile, he accepted an invitation
00:33:36 to the home of his ex-girlfriend,
00:33:39 who, if she does turn out to be my mother,
00:33:43 I'm not kidding.
00:33:52 - He died last year.
00:33:55 - You heard?
00:33:57 - Yeah.
00:33:59 God. Died in his office.
00:34:01 - Heart attack?
00:34:02 I always imagined
00:34:06 What they didn't say was he was
00:34:09 - Jesus.
00:34:12 Actually, he was completely alone and
00:34:19 - You want a drink?
00:34:21 - You must miss him.
00:34:25 These are for you.
00:34:26 - Oh, Will.
00:34:31 They're beautiful.
00:34:35 So are you.
00:34:38 - Summer.
00:34:40 Don't mess with me.
00:34:42 I can see where you're going with this.
00:34:43 In a second, you're gonna
00:34:47 - Really?
00:34:49 And then you're gonna sweep me off my feet
00:34:52 Can't a girl miss a guy?
00:34:53 And you know that's gonna end badly.
00:34:54 Yeah, she can,
00:34:56 but I just don't really have time for the pain.
00:34:59 So let's just skip all that, why don't we?
00:35:02 Okay.
00:35:04 Fair enough.
00:35:06 Can we be friends?
00:35:07 - Yeah! Yeah.
00:35:09 - Shake on it? Okay.
00:35:15 You know what?
00:35:19 There's someone here I want you to meet.
00:35:22 Yeah. Come with me.
00:35:25 They're an old flame of mine,
00:35:26 and I think you guys are really gonna,
00:35:35 Emily.
00:35:38 I'm gonna put these in some water.
00:35:44 - You look...
00:35:47 You look great.
00:35:50 - Why are you in New York?
00:35:53 I took a job
00:35:57 - I called you.
00:35:59 - I've been meaning to call you back.
00:36:02 - I had lost your number.
00:36:04 - No, it's true. You know what?
00:36:07 Okay, give me your number, right now.
00:36:09 I'm gonna put it in my cell phone,
00:36:14 My number is 212-664-7665.
00:36:20 Six, six, five. See? Now I got it.
00:36:26 - Oh, no, go ahead, go ahead.
00:36:28 - Hello.
00:36:31 I'm really sorry I lost your number.
00:36:35 I just had the weirdest flash
00:36:38 one that never, ever happened.
00:36:44 What did happen to us?
00:36:46 You slept with my roommate.
00:36:49 I'm sorry.
00:36:50 If I remember correctly,
00:36:53 - The plan. Remember that?
00:36:55 Who talks like that?
00:36:56 No, it wasn't the plan.
00:37:03 and then after we broke up, I just felt lost.
00:37:07 I still feel pretty lost,
00:37:13 Yeah.
00:37:16 Yeah, I've been... Me, too.
00:37:24 Did you ever think
00:37:28 that maybe we just needed a different plan?
00:37:32 Wait! Stop! Stop right there.
00:37:36 Okay, stop. Now go forward, slowly.
00:37:40 Now here it comes.
00:37:41 There! Right there!
00:37:44 That's it! That's how I figured it out!
00:37:46 That's what Mom does when I'm upset.
00:37:48 She fluffs up my hair
00:37:50 or shine like the sun,
00:37:53 - Sounds like a great mom.
00:37:56 So you're absolutely positive,
00:38:03 walking toward us right now?
00:38:06 Absolutely.
00:38:08 Is it?
00:38:11 - Mom! Mom!
00:38:17 I'm so glad it's you.
00:38:19 - Well, who else would it be?
00:38:22 - Good morning, Will.
00:38:26 Mom, can Dad come with us to the zoo?
00:38:28 Yeah, if Dad wants to come, sure.
00:38:32 You know, I love the zoo.
00:38:37 - Guess what, Mom?
00:38:38 We learned all about sexual intercourse
00:38:41 - Really?
00:38:43 Really.
00:38:56 I love penguins.
00:38:59 Me, too.
00:39:00 Me, three.
00:39:11 Did you know that penguins mate for life?
00:39:14 Although, Mr. Monell told us
00:39:16 that sometimes the husband
00:39:19 'cause of their migraine patterns.
00:39:21 - Migratory.
00:39:23 Well, sometimes they're apart for years,
00:39:32 Do you know
00:39:33 after they find each other after all that time?
00:39:37 Throw back their heads,
00:39:39 flap their flippers
00:40:28 Okay. All right, munchkin. Let's go!
00:40:35 Hey, monster, that was fun today.
00:40:42 See you later.
00:40:47 Dad!
00:40:55 - Thanks for telling me the story.
00:41:00 - I forgot to tell you the happy ending.
00:41:05 You.
00:41:17 - Hey, I love you.
00:41:20 Go catch up to your mom, okay?
00:41:25 Are you all right?
00:41:26 Yeah?
00:41:46 Mr. President! Hey, Mr. President!
00:41:48 Will Hayes, I worked on the '92 campaign.
00:43:20 Hi. I'm looking for April.
00:43:32 Check that they have
00:43:35 - Right.
00:43:45 I can't believe you're doing this.
00:43:46 - This is great.
00:43:47 - Still smoking?
00:43:48 Me, too.
00:43:50 - Still live in the same loft?
00:43:52 Always on the cutting edge.
00:43:54 - Dating?
00:43:58 - I got divorced.
00:44:00 I heard. I'm so sorry.
00:44:02 Why?
00:44:04 You always said marriage was overrated.
00:44:05 Yeah, and you never listened to me.
00:44:09 - Is that why you and Kevin never...
00:44:13 Something always seemed
00:44:15 I don't know.
00:44:17 It's weird. It was never quite right.
00:44:22 Yeah.
00:44:24 - It's good to see you.
00:44:30 I have something for you.
00:45:14 Thank you so much.
00:45:17 How did you find it?
00:45:22 That's the difficult part to explain.
00:45:27 This is gonna sound bad.
00:45:30 I've had it for a while.
00:45:33 How long?
00:45:35 Years.
00:45:37 Many years.
00:45:40 I meant to...
00:45:42 I meant to give it to you.
00:45:44 I just...
00:45:46 I couldn't. And I don't know why.
00:45:50 I dropped it off once. I mean, I tried.
00:45:54 Hey, there is no excuse, and I'm sorry.
00:45:59 It's inexcusable.
00:46:05 - I think you should go, Will.
00:46:09 I think you should go.
00:46:25 You never gave it to her? After all that time?
00:46:29 - I know. I know.
00:46:31 I know. I know.
00:46:33 And then you just left?
00:46:36 Yep.
00:46:39 How come you changed all the names
00:46:42 What do you mean?
00:46:43 In the story, you know,
00:46:46 and Summer's that Natasha lady
00:46:50 But you didn't change April's name. Why?
00:46:56 Why are you so concerned
00:47:00 Because I want you to be happy.
00:47:03 You know,
00:47:05 I'm happy.
00:47:08 Trust me, Dad. You're not happy.
00:47:24 Put your coat on.
00:47:31 - Taxi!
00:47:39 She said something was missing
00:47:41 which means
00:47:44 - which is good news, right?
00:47:48 Could be.
00:47:51 Did you know that 35 people try
00:47:54 Most because of broken hearts.
00:47:58 I'll keep that in mind.
00:48:17 - Hello.
00:48:20 It's me, Will.
00:48:24 April?
00:48:31 What are you doing here?
00:48:36 Go on, tell her.
00:48:38 Who's that?
00:48:40 That would be my daughter, Maya.
00:48:43 That's kind of cheating, isn't it?
00:48:45 What am I supposed to do now?
00:48:49 Well, you could let us in.
00:48:54 I don't think she's gonna let us in.
00:48:58 I think you're wrong.
00:49:01 Come on, let's go. Let's go.
00:49:03 A little while longer.
00:49:06 Okay, kiddo, here's the deal.
00:49:08 I'm gonna count to 30, okay?
00:49:11 And if she doesn't let us in,
00:49:13 and we're never gonna talk about this again.
00:49:15 - Deal?
00:49:17 Ready?
00:49:19 - One, two, three...
00:49:24 ...four, five, six...
00:49:29 ...14, 15, 16, 17...
00:49:34 If she lets us in,
00:49:37 - And then she'll know.
00:49:39 I can't explain. She'll just know.
00:49:42 ...25, 26, 27...
00:49:50 - Twenty-nine.
00:49:53 Twenty-nine and a quarter.
00:49:56 Twenty-nine and a half.
00:50:00 Twenty-nine and three-quarters.
00:50:04 What comes after that?
00:50:08 Time to go.
00:50:13 But this wasn't
00:50:15 - I know.
00:50:17 she would have heard through the intercom
00:50:21 or run down the stairs and say...
00:50:22 What story?
00:50:27 What story?
00:50:41 - I kept the book...
00:50:45 ...because it was the only thing
00:51:09 - You must be Maya.
00:51:17 So what happens now?
00:51:20 You invite us inside,
00:51:24 Okay.
