that he can afford this place?

He works for my dad

at Edward Jones.

Hmm. Well...

should we tune up?

Yeah, sure, yeah.

Jenny Jenkins

- I told you I'd be rusty.

- That's okay.

So you just wanna get your

finger off the top string,

so the top string

can ring out.

There you go.

Almost, almost.

You want it to sound like this.

You make it look so easy.

Well, it's years of practice.

Most people just give up.

I know.

- You want to try again?

- Yeah.

Is a check okay?

Oh, cash would be

so much better.

Oh, I don't have any on me.

I'm sorry.

Next time?

Sure, yeah.

So how are you

getting used to the Lou?

It must be weird

after New York.

It's fine, you know.

It's a lot cheaper,

so that's nice.

Is it hard to find other,

you know...

Gay people?

No, not if you know

where to look.

- But honestly, I am...

- Hey, honey, I...

- Oh, hi.

- Hey, you're home.

Yeah, your dad

let me out early for once.

Hi.

Oh, you remember Becks.

Of course.

Becks the Wreck.

- Heh heh heh.

- My mom said you were home.

- Yeah, it's been a long time.

- Yeah, it's great to see you.

And I know Dave is psyched

to have you back.

Becks and Dave were like

the ultimate, alterna,

we're-too-cool-for-you

couple.

ELYSE:
Really?

- Yeah.

- You and Dave?

Yeah. I was confused.

Hey, we're going to head to

P.F. Chang's. You wanna join?

Oh, I'm sorry. I can't.

I have another lesson.

Jupiter, Ceres,

Eris, Makemake.

LIZZY:
Why don't you go

play with your brothers,

and you let Mommy

talk to Grandma, okay?

He's really into

space stuff right now.

ANN:
Lizzy,

they're getting too big.

You have to tell them

to stop, okay?

Oh, Rebecca's here.

Honey, it's Lizzy,

come here, come here.

Your sister wants

to say hi real quick.

Hi, Becks!

- Hi, Lizzy.

- Wow!

Look who ended up back home.

Uh, not ending up here.

Just stopping by.

Well, I knew that Lucy

was bad news.

When you come from

money like that...

You know what?

You are so right.

Lizzy, it was really nice

to talk to you.

Text me when you have

another kid!

ANN:
Can't the two of you

at least try to get along once?

Sisters never get along, Mom.

Well, are you gonna

at least come and visit?

It's been over a year.

The kids are growing up.

I'm missing everything.

I know, but would you want

to get on a four-hour flight

with these maniacs?

Honey, Mommy is

talking to Grandma.

Tell you what. As soon as

the boys get a little bigger,

we will come out, okay?

Hey, Caleb,

put that down! Don't...

Mom, I gotta go,

I gotta go.

Do you want a time-out?

[guitar]

[guitar]

Oh, Daddy

Let me go

Up to the hills

Down to the shore

Nobody's crying around here

but you

Let me go
