Kevin and Lindsey,

this is Mr. Persons.

He was nice enough

to give me a ride home.

What's he want, a reward?

You know what?

I really better get out of here.

Smart.

Hey, Nick?

I don't mean to be a pest...

...but I was just wondering if you could

give me a ride to work tomorrow.

- Of course.

- Oh, great. Thank you.

- See you tomorrow.

- Bye.

Mom, do you know what time it is?

Excuse me, I'm the mother.

Get in the house.

- Get in the house.

- It's raining.

- Get in the house.

- Who is this stud, Nick?

You're supposed to be in bed.

Nick, thank you so much for

helping me these past couple days.

- You are so sweet.

- Yeah, I know.

Hey, does this seem ripe to you?

I don't know. I don't eat food unless

it has an expiration date on it.

Nick, you are funny. You eat worse

than my 7-year-old son.

You kind of dress like him too.

What's wrong with that?

And do you know I have never

seen you without a hat?

- You don't need to see me without it.

- Let me see.

- What's under there?

- What?

- Come on, Nick.

- Watch out. Get back. Hold on.

- Get back.

- Give me that.

Hang on. Don't move.

There.

- Nick, wait.

- Right.

- Wanna go to my apartment?

- No, I can't. I can't.

I've thought about it. I really have.

But let's be realistic. I'm a single mom.

No, you're a sexy mama.

Do you know this whole time

we've been hanging out...

...you've never once asked me

about my kids?

- How they doing?

- I bet you don't remember their names.

Rudy and Theo?

Nick.

I think we should just be friends.

Next point wins. Let's go.

Hold on to your earrings there,

Yao Bling...

...because I'm gonna embarrass you.

And it's gonna hurt because I love you.

- Give me that.

- Hey, that's a foul.

- Come on, man, you hit my hand.

- No, I didn't.

Right here, baby. Right here.

Game time.

Yeah, baby. Yeah.

Bye-bye. Bye-bye.

Get off of me, Lurch.

That was a moving pick.

Let's run it again. Same teams.

Come on.

No. I gotta go, y'all.

What? We're tied.

Somebody has to lose.

- It's the American way.

- Hey, somebody did lose.

- You know I gotta go do that thing.

- What thing? What?

You know, I gotta take Suzanne

to the airport in the morning.

Take Suzanne to the airport

in the morning.

- You are stuck in the friend zone.

- Get out of here.

Listen to me. We've been friends

a very long time...

...and I am telling you,

you gotta dump this girl.

- What? We not even going out.

- That's the point, Nick.

Whatever it is you don't have

going on, it has got to end.

Okay, for all those who listen

to this clown...

...Nick Persons will never be

in the friend zone.

- Understand that and believe that.
