and Dad called me and told

me that you were coming, that

he was meeting you here and that

I should come and surprise you.

Surprise! He flaked on us,

didn't he?

(Kate) Yes.

So how'd you two

make the connection? Hi.

You're

the famous Olivia?

My beautiful

sister, Olivia,

Olivia, my gorgeous

English man, Richard Haig.

- You look great.

- Thank you.

(Kate) So, me, my dad and my

mom are staying at this hotel

that we always stay at.

And my dad keeps running off,

saying he has like meetings

or appointments, whatever.

And finally my Mom gets fed up,

and she decides to tail him

one day to one

of his "meetings".

Ends up following him to

the other end of the beach,

where Livvy is

staying with her mom-

And all

hell breaks loose.

Our dad is

leading a double life.

Like raising two families

at the same time.

What a naughty boy.

(Kate) Right? Crazy.

Anyway, I take Kate to the

beach. I'm sitting there and I'm

trying to process everything,

you know? What my father did.

My poor Mom.

And the fact that I have

this little, lovely sister.

For me, I mean, I was stoked.

I always wanted a big sister.

And I decide the only

way we can protect each other

from this craziness is if

Kate and I make a pact.

No secrets.

Absolute honesty.

From this day forward, we would

tell each other everything.

Hm.

No matter what, always.

(Kate) And we have.

And we're like best friends.

So, Livvy,

how is your Allen?

What?

Ah.

Please, tell us about Allen.

He's great.

(Kate) Livvy's Allen is the

Allen Sloan, you know,

the romance writer?

- Really?

And Livvy edits his books

and they're totally in love.

Madly and totally in

love with a romance writer?

That sounds fascinating.

Well, no more than the

Romantics professor's passion

for his students, surely.

- Oh-

- Livvy. Be nice.

Yes, Kate.

Would either of you like

a little taste of my steak?

(Kate) No, thanks.

It's very tender.

You're unbelievable, aren't you?

Sorry?

Of course, on the verge

of graduating, going home,

she's the perfect catch

for you, isn't she?

- Hey!

- I get it, I get it.

He's hot and funny and smart

and he's got the suave accent!

But all I see is a Lothario

with an eternally wandering eye

who simply charmed the

pants off you. Literally.

Livvy, what

are you doing?

Kate, I know, this feels

like love, but no, no, no, no.

This is not love,

this is a fling!

How do you know?

What are you even saying?

Obviously, you are looking

for for a father figure,

but in our case, it

means a self-centered,

cheating womanizer

whose not to be trusted!

And you're just so

young, you can't see it.

Really? How young were you when

you ran off with Anwar, huh?
