The Secret Life of the American Teenager S2E19 - English Transcript

Previously on The Secret Life of the American Teenager Did he call you? No, but we agreed we're not going to call each other every day. You think I'm a good kisser? Of course anyone can become a better kisser with practice. Is that true? I could practice with you. It's for the mother-daughter dance. It's sort of a ritual I like to do in the springtime. We always have a father-daughter dance. Mother-daughter dances are always interesting and usually fun. Did your dad remarry? She's not my mother. Yeah, I don't do anything with her. Grace, I didn't say when we were getting married. I said we were thinking about it. Well, I hope you do that. I hope you think about it, and when you do, I hope you realize that it's too soon. Ricky What? I know how you get when people get close. And you'll have a chance to go to counseling. Yeah, I don't really have anything to talk about to a stranger. That's not going to happen. I want you to want me, and I want to want you, but how are we going to do that, George? You have my word that I'm going to do the best that I can do. There has to be a reason why that Jimmy hasn't called her. Do you really think Ricky's going to dash over here and throw himself at Amy because she doesn't have a boyfriend again? Yes. Just close your eyes. Well? I don't know if I need you to go to a dance. I'd love it if you would go. I love you, Mom. I love you, too, Ashley. All right, I think John's down for the night, but I'll just stick around in case he's not. Yeah, why don't you? I didn't know you were coming over, but since you're here, feel free to stay. I told Amy I would be here when she gets home from the dance. Besides, I like spending time with John. He's my son. Is that some kind of remark to us, the other fathers in the room, about spending time with their children? You're not spending time with your son. You're spending time with his walkie-talkie. Okay, but I'm just keeping my word to Amy, and it wasn't a remark. Yeah, well, my wife and son aren't always here for me to spend time with, and that's not my choice, and he missed the first and that wasn't his choice. So I thought it was a remark. Excuse me. Okay, George, I don't think Ricky meant anything. You don't, huh? Something going on? Like? Are you upset with me for some reason? What makes you think that? No reason. I'll just be somewhere else in the house. All right, look, it's fine. Look, just sit down. We'll deal you in. That's okay. I'll watch TV or read or something in the other room. The prospect of playing poker with the two of us doesn't appeal to you? No, but it doesn't bother me if that's what you're asking. Hey, I'm just trying to Really, it doesn't bother you? Because if I was sitting across the table from the father of the girl I got pregnant and the father of the girl I'm now sleeping with George, do you mind? Sorry. It would absolutely scare the living All right, all right. If he doesn't want to play, he doesn't want to play, right? Whatever. It's up to him. What are the stakes? Just playing to play. All right, why not? I pretty much told you why not. You want another reason? Is there another reason? Is there? Never mind. Let's go. You kissed Amy? You kissed Amy? I guess he had to have kissed Amy. Recently? [baby crying] * ["Chicken Dance"] [scattered applause] Welcome. Welcome, everybody. I am so happy you could come out tonight for our first annual mother-daughter dance even if it's just me out here on the floor right now. I really just wanted you to have a night out together and have a little fun, and if dancing's not your thing, hey, just be a good guest at the ongoing party we call life. It's great to be alive, isn't it? So get out there, participate, communicate, celebrate. Dance, dance, dance. * [country] I think we can go now. No, we can't. Can we? We just got here. There's nothing going on other than a bunch of mothers and daughters standing around staring at each other. We can do that at home. Maybe step 1 is staring at each other, and step 2 is talking with each other, and step 3 is dancing with each other. Cha cha cha. Have we ever danced with each other, ever? We're not going to dance with each other. She's right. Oh, what do you know? I know as much as you do. Yeah, well, I know plenty. Well, I don't know what that means, but there's been something going on all week between you two, so what don't I know about now? Nothing. Nothing's going on, at least not with me. No, nothing's ever going on with you. [scoffs] You didn't have sex with Jimmy, did you? What? No. I just thought I know he hasn't called you. Hey, everybody. Hey, Amy, you want to get out there and dance? Come on. Okay, my journalistic gut tells me that this is some sort of social experiment. Really, what kind of social experiment? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure that it's going to affect our grades. So has he called you yet? Who? You know who. What do you think? I'm sorry. But if he does, this time I'll be ready for him. Where do you two think you're going? You are not leaving me alone to talk to my mother. You do realize that you just left your mother alone with my mother and all the other mothers. That's dangerous. It's dangerous for you. It's not dangerous for me. I'm not doing anything. Did Jimmy No, but if he does call, she's got condoms. What? You said you were prepared. I said I was ready. Big difference. And I didn't mean ready to have sex, just ready for, you know, Jimmy. And by the way, I do have a *** in my purse. No offense, but if he didn't call you because you're a bad kisser, he's not going to try to have sex with you, do you think? No. I'm not a bad kisser. No, of course not. Yeah, I'm sure it's something else. You can think whatever you want, but I'm not a bad kisser. I know I'm not. So why hasn't he called? I don't know. You know. Did she have sex with Jimmy? Mom, come on. She's not going to have sex with Jimmy. She's going to have sex with someone else? Hey, Ann. Hi, Ashley. Hi, Kathleen. It's good to see you. Well, how's the baby? Oh, thanks for asking. Hopefully he's fine. Robbie. He's home with George tonight. George is really good with children. Well, I mean, he was good to talk to Grace when Grace needed someone to talk to not that Grace is a child, but I don't really know if George is good with children. We didn't have children ourselves, but of course you know that. [giggles] Is it hot in here? Kind of. Hi. Cindy, Adrian's mom. Oh, right. Hi. I'm sorry. How are you? I'm terrific. Have you heard? I'm getting married to Adrian's dad, to Ruben. Did Grace tell you? No, she didn't. Yeah, married for the first time. Can you believe it? Well, I'm actually thinking about it myself, marriage. You are? Yes, I am. I mean, I know it's soon, but I want to be married. To anyone in particular? Of course. Funny. In particular Yeah, yeah, but you don't know him. I heard he's a doctor. Another doctor? Interesting. I mean, congratulations. [chuckles] Yes, he's an OB/GYN. Nice. Yeah. I mean, that's not why I'm marrying him. He's a brother of someone I knew know knew. How's the baby? Is anything wrong with Robbie. No, he's fine. He's with George tonight. With George and Ruben. They're playing cards and taking care of the babies. That's just Madison being Madison. She'll come around. That Dead Parents Club? It's given her a really great place to vent. She and Jack started a club for kids whose parents are, you know, dead. They meet all the time. Uh, that that's not true. They can't be. They might be meeting, but it's probably not about dead parents. It's probably about sex. Oh, I don't think there's a real club called the The Dead Parents Club, yeah. No, I don't think Madison would be in anything like that. Madison is having sex? Uh kind of. Uh-oh, I think I just got the stink eye. I told you this would happen. I really want to know what happened with Amy and that Jim guy. Who cares? I do. Maybe you should encourage Ben to go back with her. I'm not going to do that. I like Ben. Besides, even if I encouraged him, he wouldn't go back. He's really, really happy to be out of that relationship. Did he tell you that just before you had sex or something? We didn't have sex. We're just friends for right now anyway. Aren't you friends with him, too? There are friends, and then there are "friends. " Are you still friends with Jack, the "friend" you had sex with? Are you still friends with Jack? Didn't you have sex with him, too? Right, I almost forgot. Okay, no, I'm not still friends with Jack. I don't need friends like that. I'm in love with Ricky. Great, because I think Ricky is in love with you, too, so you should just forget about Amy and who she's with or not with. Yeah, well, I think he's in love with me, but I also think that there's something going on between the two of them besides just sharing the joy of parenthood. Look, I just don't think she's quite as innocent as everyone thinks she is. Maybe she had sex with Jimmy, and that was it, one time, and it was over. Sometimes guys just want to have sex to see if they can have sex. He had sex with her and then never called her again. It happens all the time. You are so negative and dramatic. I doubt that they had sex. Why? Why do you doubt it? Because I heard he thought Amy was a bad kisser, so I don't think that they had sex. A bad kisser? That's what I heard from my friend Jack, who heard it from his "more than a friend" Madison. That Amy's a bad kisser? Mm-hmm. I don't know. That sounds like some crazy Madison rumor. What kind of kisser is Ben? I didn't say that I kissed Ben. Okay, I kissed Ben, and I like the way he kisses. He kind of lets me kiss him, like he takes the cues from me. I like being the more aggressive one in the relationship. Yeah, I remember the stories you told me about your first time with Jack. Okay, but if Ben's a good kisser, then You must like him. Do you? Oh, hi, Alice. I just don't want to see him get his heart broken. Well, she doesn't want to get her heart broken, either. He was smitten with you the first day of school. I told him Amy was more attainable. Turns out she wasn't, but I'm still not sure about you. I don't think I would've been attainable back then. I mean, I just started dating, and I really, really like Jack I loved him even but now things are different. Ben Boykewich is an interesting guy, very interesting, and I really think there could be a possibility of a future there. We have a lot in common. I'll give you that. He is interesting Ben. A lot more interesting than I ever would have thought. Hey, did those two have sex, Ben and Amy? No, they didn't have sex. Are you sure? Yes. Yeah, I'm not so sure. I think she's having sex. The question is who is she having sex with? There's only one way to tell, isn't there? And let me tell you something. If Amy's having sex with Ricky, I'm having sex with Ben. But I like Ben. I just told you I liked Ben. I don't care. Go back to only one way to tell. May I join you? I'm Alice's mother. Um, I'm Fern. I'm Kathleen. Cindy. Ann. So who's going to Leo and Betty's wedding? Leo and Betty? Uh, I hadn't heard. We haven't been invited, but we really don't know them. I have a wedding of my own coming up. I'm getting married, too, to Adrian's dad. We were high school sweethearts. Kathleen's getting married. Mazel tov. Yes, thank you. He's Jewish. My husband passed away. Not even a year ago. Ann just had a baby. Oh, I thought it was your daughter who had the baby. It was both of us. Ah. Good for you. How's he or she doing? [together] He's fine. In case you're all wondering, I'm getting married, too, to my ex-husband, the father. Good for her, even if most second marriages to the same person never workout. I wasn't hiding. I couldn't get him back to sleep. Let's just play cards, huh? Did Amy tell you what happened, or were you spying on us? Oh, of course. Ashley. But what Ashley doesn't know is that Amy asked me to kiss her. It wasn't like we were really kissing. What was it like? I don't know. It was just her wanting to practice. Oh, geez, not that she wanted an excuse. She did, and I figured it would give her more confidence if she had more practice. Someone told her she was a bad kisser. Of course. You were just helping her out. No, you weren't. You figured you'd take advantage of her, and you know it. Amy's not that naive. She's not that easily taken advantage of. She knew what she was doing. I was just kissing her because she wanted to be kissed. She wanted to practice. It was a favor and not a favor that I wanted everyone to know about. What was I going to do, tell her no and make her feel that oh, sure, we had a baby but I don't even find her attractive enough to kiss her when she asks? Geez, no good deed. So she asked you to kiss her to practice with you? Who the hell told her she was a bad kisser? Not me. It wasn't me. It was her girlfriends. They planted that seed in her head. They told her that if Jimmy hadn't called, then maybe it was because she was a bad kisser. Then she came to me for help. I was just helping her. [baby crying] That wasn't Robbie. That was John. Should I go in there? Nope, I wouldn't. I can't believe Ashley told him. It was just a kiss. We weren't having sex. It was like kissing my sister. Is that what you're going to tell Adrian? Huh? That it was just like kissing your sister? I don't know what I'm going to tell her, but don't tell her. Please, don't tell her. I'll tell her, promise. Just let me tell her. It's not that big a deal. Uh, yeah, it is a big deal, and I know what this is about. This is about Adrian meeting your parents, isn't it? What? No. [baby coos] This is what happens when you have sex with a girl that doesn't know anything about sex, wasn't planning on having sex. Come on, John. What's the matter? Were we too loud in here? Let's go. I hope Adrian knows what she's doing. Oh, I think she knows what she's doing. She just doesn't know what he's doing. You going to tell her? No, I'm not going to tell her. I'll let Ricky tell her. I'm staying out of this. He told me there's no heat between them, him and Amy, and he ends up kissing her. So maybe she did ask him to kiss her. Maybe what he's saying is true. Whose side are you on? Truthfully, Adrian's. [buzzes] Hey, Madison. Hey, Jack. I was just thinking about you. Really? Me or us doing what we do? Madison, you know what? I was thinking that I've been totally wrong in the way I've been treating you, like I'm only going out with you for that reason or like I'm only going out with you because Grace and I broke up. Okay, I'm at a dance right now. I didn't really want to have a long discussion, but what? I like you. You're fun, you're smart, and you're really special, and if I ever made you feel like anything less than that, I'm sorry. I just think we should take things a little slower and maybe get to know each other a little bit better. Are you drinking again? No, Madison, I'm not. I I really like you, and I may have been having sex with you just to have sex with you at first, but I think it could be more than that. I want it to be more than that. But But? Are you breaking up with me? No, I'm not. Can I ask you a question? If you like me so much, do you have to be such good friends with Grace? I Yeah. I'll talk to you later, Jack. No. Wait, wait, wait. Not if you don't want me to be or if that's going to get in the way of our being boyfriend and girlfriend. Okay. Okay? Okay. Just don't be friends with Grace. [giggles] Bye. What just happened? I just don't understand. It's easy. There's too much counting. Besides, I just came over to talk about Grace. How's that going? Good, huh? Yeah, it's going fine. Look, with cribbage, once you get the hang of it, it comes second nature. You just I don't want to get the hang of it. I just want to hear about Grace. Then I want Alice to call me. Then I want to go over to her house and get the hang of that. [chuckles] Sorry. So if you were going to call someone right now, would it be Grace or Maria or Amy? I could call any one of them. I am friends with Grace and Maria and Amy. Uh-huh. It's Grace Bowman. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, guys, what's going on? I was just saying I can't wait till you get back. Let's go. Where are we going? Your house. For? For whatever you want. Why are you home so early? Did something go wrong at the dance? Yeah, my mom has no social skills. She tries, but But? Did you know Amy's parents were getting married again? No. I haven't talked to Amy. Wonder if she'll invite me to the wedding. Did you say that because you hope she will invite you to the wedding? Because I heard from Grace that she really likes you. Grace or Amy? Time's up. You don't really care about Grace. You're still in love with Amy. I'm not still in love with Amy. I care about her because she's Amy. Did you and Amy have sex? Adrian thinks you and Amy had sex. What? You told Adrian but not me? Us. I didn't have sex with Amy. I don't think I could have sex with Amy even if she wanted to have sex because it just wouldn't be right. I finally realized that it wouldn't be right. We're really not married, and she already has one baby, and what would happen if, despite the fact that we were very, very careful, she got pregnant again? First time we're hearing this. You broke up with her because you were afraid if you ever did have sex with her, she might get pregnant? I don't know. It's so complicated. That was part of it, I think. I mean, I wanted to have sex with her, and then I got kind of slightly afraid of having sex with her. And then, once I had doubts about having sex with her, I started having doubts about the way I feel about her, and that led to doubts that we should be in a relationship at all. Are you afraid if you have sex with Grace, she might get pregnant? Well, no. You see, Hank, Grace has been successful with birth control whereas Amy has not. [sighs] I guess. Yeah, I guess that's it. I know it's not logical, butyeah. Well, about a quarter of teenage mothers do have a second child within two years of the birth of their first child. By the same guy, not by the same guy? You are an idiot. Amy Juergens would never ever get pregnant again, not by you or Ricky or any other guy. Eureka. Hey, we're going to bed. Alice and Henry leave? I need to talk to you about something. Sure, sure, what's going on? You look upset. It's not that I'm upset, but I think I had kind of a breakthrough when I was talking to Alice and Henry before, about Amy. Oh, yeah? What kind of breakthrough? I realized that I'm afraid that if Amy and I ever did have sex that she might get pregnant. Well, that's certainly a possibility with any girl you might have sex with. Yeah, but I was afraid because Amy got pregnant before that she'd get pregnant again. A lot of girls do that. A lot of teenage mothers do that. I heard that. What are you getting at? I'm getting at that's not rational. A lot of fears aren't rational. Yeah, I know, but, you know, now that I've said it out loud, it sounds so stupid and ridiculous. I'm going to go over to Amy's and tell her, and I'm sure that once we've talked about it, that we can talk through it, that we can get to where we were before, not even to where we were before but a place that's better than that. I like Grace, and it was great kissing Grace, but it's not like kissing Amy, and I had fun with Maria, but, Dad, I love Amy. I don't like being apart from Amy. I don't want to be apart from her another day. Ben, why don't you just sleep on it, okay? Even if you thought your feelings were confused by this notion that Amy might somehow get pregnant again and this time with you God forbid, before you get out of high school that doesn't mean she's going to understand it or like it. It might not sound as good the second time you say it if you say it to Amy. You know what I'm talking about? Do you really want to tell Amy that you're afraid she'll get pregnant? I know, but it's just so stupid. Yeah, listen to me, son. It might be stupider to tell her. Sleep on it. Oh, geez, I can see you're not going to take my advice, so let me give you some more advice. Don't just sleep on it. Don't do it, even if you sleep on it. Just take your time. Feelings are complex. This is a complicated relationship. It's always been complicated. Take the time to make sure of your feelings. Amy's not going to trust you if you keep going back and forth like you have been for the past six months. Like I told you before, take it slow and don't tell her anything like you're thinking about telling her. Ben, please, just listen to me. You're not thinking this through. That wasn't the only reason you broke up with Amy, this irrational fear, was it? No, but I think that was kind of underneath it all. I really do. Well, think about it some more. Please do yourself a favor. Think about it some more. But you don't think Lauren would have sex just because Madison is doing what she's doing, do you? Girls in high school have sex for all kinds of reasons and for no reason at all. I just think it's difficult for Lauren to make the right choices for herself when she's surrounded by girls making the wrong choices. No offense. Did you have sex in high school? Me? Did you? Yes. I was a senior. You? No, I waited for the wrong guy, my first husband. Yeah, my first guy was the wrong guy, too. I couldn't help but overhear that, too, but I didn't know if I should interrupt. Yeah, what fun would that be? So how are you? Better for hearing that. I don't know why, but it helps to know that other women chose the wrong first guy. The wrong guy or the wrong time? That's an interesting question. So your mom told my mom that she and George are getting married again. Oh yeah. Yeah. Well, it was nice talking to you. Think I should get back in there. Ashley, where have you been? Mom wants to leave. I just heard from the daughter of wife number 1 that Mom said she and Dad are getting married again. What? Yeah. Why didn't she tell us that? Well, I don't know why she didn't tell us that. Why didn't she tell you, though? I don't know. Hi. Oh, Ashley, I need to talk to Amy alone if you don't mind? Sorry, Adrian, I do mind. We're actually kind of in a hurry to get out of here, so You can talk to me in front of Ashley. What's up? Oh, nothing, but I'm here with my mom, and Ricky's supposed to stop by when we get home, you know, after you get home, and I was wondering Do you happen to have a ***? As a matter of fact, I do. Thank you. Mm-hmm. Come on, let's go. [phone rings] Hello. Hi, Mr. Juergens. It's Ben. Hey, ex-boyfriend, we miss you around here. I miss you, too, all of you. Hey, I got my license, and I was going to pick up a pizza, and I just thought maybe I'd swing by. Maybe Amy and Ashley and Mrs. Juergens will be home by then? Yeah, yeah, you're welcome to come by, Ben. We'd love to see you. Oh, and I hear congratulations are in order. Oh, yeah? I heard you and Mrs. Juergens are becoming Mr. and Mrs. again. Say again? You're getting married. I am? That's what I heard. That's the news from the dance. I know it sounds childish, but I said it because I'm a little overwhelmed by all the responsibility right now. I said it because I don't know. I just thought that they were judging me. I feel like everyone here is just looking at me and judging me. Yeah, welcome to my world. You created your world. Would you just tell me what's going on between you two? Can we just go, please? We're leaving, so I just wanted to say thanks for the ***. Good night. Was that a ***? I think we should go now. We can go now. What's with the ***? Why do you have a ***? I made her take it. She didn't make me take it. I asked for it because I don't want to get pregnant again. So, Amy, you are having sex? With? Oh, God, is that why you kissed Ricky? You're going to have sex with him? What? It was only one ***, and she obviously hasn't used it. Whoa. [chuckles] It has been a wonderful evening, but it's time to say good night. [girls murmuring] Good night. Not so fast. I have a few things I need to say before we go. [girls moaning] My grandmother and her sister spent three years in a concentration camp when they should've been in high school, and they survived. They survived, they said, because every night, rather than sink down into the horrors of what was going on around them, they imagined that they were once again dancing in their living room while their father played the violin, and they found the courage and the will to live driven by the memories of dancing with their mother and wanting so much to have just one more dance. When they told me that story, I thought, Wouldn't it be great if I could get a bunch of girls together with their moms and dance, create some kind of special memory that might just get us all through high school? I mean, that's possible, isn't it? To take each other by the hand, mothers and daughters and dance away the pain of what goes on every day in our hallways? Granted, it's not a concentration camp and there's no war going on here, but there are wars, and then there are wars. If you've ever been made fun of or if you've ever made fun of another girl, join me on the dance floor, won't you? If you've ever wanted what another girl has and resented her for having it, join me. If you want to do what the other girls are doing because you don't want to feel insecure or left out or stupid or ugly or inferior, join me. If you've ever wanted a guy just because he was going out with some other girl and you wanted to hurt that girl, join me. If you've ever wanted a guy not because you're interested in him but because you want to beat out the other girls in some sort of bizarre race for the guys, join me. Join me, mothers and daughters. Join me in stopping the meanness and competition that goes on every day in our hallways. Not only do women have the power to unite and stop all the wars going on in the world and I believe we have that power but we have the power to stop the wars within, and there can be no peace until there is peace within. This is from my grandma Sadie and my great-aunt Pearl. * ["Hava Nagila"] Adrian, don't do it. [together] Whoo! Whoo! [knock on door] Coming. Coming. Ben, what are you doing here? I told you dad I'd bring some pizza over. Because Because I just wanted to see you as well as everyone else. Because Um if you heard that I kissed Ricky, it was just a kiss, all right? Good night. Good night, Ben. What did you go and do that for? What did I go and do what for? Well, Ben's a nice guy, Amy. He's good for you. Yeah, I know he's a nice guy, but I don't care if he's good for me. Well, Jimmy's a nice guy, too, and he'll call you, Amy. I know you kissed Ricky. I know why you kissed Ricky. Why? Because you were just feeling a little insecure, and guys were saying you were a bad kisser, but I'm sure you're not. Guys were not saying that. Girls were saying that. Girls were assuming that because Jimmy hasn't called me. I don't know why Jimmy hasn't called me, but it's not because I'm a bad kisser. Why did you ask Ricky to practice kissing if you didn't want to become a better kisser? Okay, well, when he first offered to help me, I was kind of having some self doubts, like maybe something was wrong with me. Then I started thinking about it, and nothing's wrong with me. Something's wrong with Jimmy and with Ben and with any other guy that doesn't like me, and if I wanted to, I could have the guy that every girl in school wants, if I wanted. And that would be Ricky. Mm-hmm. So when he came over here to help you practice, to build up your self-esteem, you just went along with that? Come on, Dad. He isn't just helping me. He wanted to kiss me, and I wanted to kiss him, and I'm glad I did. You know why? Because it wasn't quite as wonderful as I thought it might be. I was afraid that one kiss, and I would crumble, and then what, he'd marry me? He's not the marrying kind. He's been a good dad, and I think he'll always be a good dad to John, but he's not ready to be a good husband. He's not even ready to be a good boyfriend, obviously, or he wouldn't have kissed me. The thing is I never even thought about Adrian in all this. I never thought how she'd feel about it. I never even considered it. And Adrian's been really nice to me lately. She's been really nice to me because she loves Ricky, and you know what? Even though he kissed me, I do think Ricky loves Adrian. You want me to help you make up the sofa? Probably ready to go to bed, aren't you? Might be sleeping in the old bedroom tonight. Heard any rumors about me and your mom getting remarried? No. Come on. Dad Apparently, it's all over school. You know how things get around that aren't true. I think it's true. All right, well, if it is, then why don't you wait for her to tell you. Right. You're right. Boy, Amy, you really are growing up. Good night, Dad. Good night. Oh, you know what? If Adrian wants to be friends with you, then you let her tell you that. What? She has told me that. Well, let her keep telling you that. Good night. [phone rings] Hi. So glad you called. I was worried about you. Were you? Yeah, I didn't want you to do something crazy that you'd regret later. Ben's parked in front of Amy's. He's just sitting in his car. Really? By himself? Yep. I hope he's not getting back together with Amy. I really like him, Adrian. Oh, I doubt Amy wants to get together with Ben since she's obviously having sex with Ricky. I doubt it. I don't. Adrian, why else would Ben be over there unless he wanted to get back together with Amy? I mean, I don't want them to get back together, but you know how it is. You break up with Ricky. You get back with Ricky. You break up with Ricky. You get back with Ricky. Okay, what's your point? Ben and Amy are probably giving it another shot. They're probably trying to get back together. They're not getting back together because Amy is having sex with Ricky. Okay, if they're not getting back together, then what's Ben doing over there? I don't know. Well, maybe he heard she had sex with Ricky, and he's going to confront her, or he has confronted her. Or he's just sitting out there because he misses her. It could be something as simple as that. No, I don't think so. Adrian I'm going to go find out. I'm going to call him. No, I tried calling him. He's not picking up his phone. Maybe he'll pick up his phone for me. I mean, this could be the perfect opportunity to reach out to him. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. What? That this is a good time to reach out to Ben. For me to reach out, not you. I'm the one who's interested in him. Didn't you get anything out of the dance tonight? Yeah, I got that girls are mean and competitive and vindictive. But we don't have to be. You don't want to be the meanest, most competitive, most vindictive, do you? Are you kidding? If Amy slept with Ricky, yeah. You don't know that, and if you want to get back at Amy, get back at her with Ricky. Don't get back at her with Ben. He's still sitting out there. I'm going to go down and see what's going on. Don't. Just don't do it, Adrian, okay? Just walk over to Amy's and talk to her and work it out. You two are friends. You can do that. Oh, yeah, you see where that got me. I have to go. Maybe she just had a *** because she wanted to have a ***. It doesn't mean she's having sex. Yes, it does. No, it doesn't. I have a ***, and I'm not having sex. Just don't do anything until you know what really happened. I know what happened. No, you don't. Good night, Grace. [sighs] Hey, your mom said the dance was really interesting. Yeah, it was. So did you talk to Ricky? [sighs] He did come over here. No, it didn't come over here. Why? He was supposed to come over here. He said he was coming over here? Yeah, I saw him over at George's earlier. Well, you know Ricky. Yeah, I do know Ricky and guys like Ricky and guys in general, and, Adrian, I don't know if we should've asked Ricky's parents to be part of our wedding. We don't really know them. Someone has to be the witnesses. It might as well be them. We can't force a guy to bring you around his family if he's not ready for that. Yes, you can if you have to. You don't have to. You can wait until he really wants to because until he really wants to, he might be feeling pressured, and it might make him run in the other direction. Like next door? The guy's got a lot of issues. You know that. I know that, and thanks for talking about it, Dad. Well, if Ricky does talk about it, and I think he will, I'll be around if you need to talk some more, okay? Thanks. Good night, Adrian. I love you. Good night. Love you, too. Hi, Adrian. Hi, Ben. I saw you from my room. What are you doing out here? Just, uh, thinking about things. Could you use some company? You know, I could. [buzzing] [on voice mail] Hi, this is Adrian. You know what to do. [typing] [ringing]
