I feel like everyone saw it coming but me.

Nobody saw it. It was like f***ing lightning.

- He didn't say anything to you?

- Never.

I mean, all he wanted to do

was have fun when we were out.

I mean, sometimes he'd pretend like he wasn't

in a relationship, but that's what guys do.

It doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Did he cheat on me or...?

No.

Hey, he would never.

I feel like men are always looking

for someone better...

...and women are just looking

for whatever works.

Well, I don't feel like that.

I just want to meet someone

I can hang out with all the time...

...eat bologna with, read sh*t to me.

- I had that person.

- Hey.

Do you remember that time when we did

mushrooms at your parents' country house?

Yeah.

And you made us go into

that swamp full of nasty sh*t...

...because you thought

we owed it to the plant life?

- The plants needed us.

- Right. And then you were convinced...

...that we wouldn't get out of there,

and I calmed you down...

...by singing that slow version

of "Girls Just Want to Have Fun."

We went back in the house and--

Do you remember this story that

I'm telling you again in great detail?

Yeah, it's the best worst night ever.

- What's your point?

- I get you out of swamps.

Hey, it's me again.

It doesn't have to be like this, Lo.

We could still talk

and be in each other's lives, you know?

Hey, it's me again.

You're killing me here.

At least let me know you're okay.

All your stuff is here.

Call me, please.

I haven't changed my underwear

in three days.

Listen, Mom, do you think you could go over

to his place and just pick up my stuff?

I can't do it. I just...

Yeah, just bring it back to my old apartment.

Yeah, use the key that I gave you.

Oh, thank you, Mom.

I love you too.

Okay, I'm gonna go elliptical. Bye.

Yeah, I'll be right there.

You go wild?

What?

- The salmon, did you buy wild?

- Oh.

No, it seems pretty tame to me.

I know there are more important things

to worry about...

...but when you buy fish,

you should try to pay attention to that.

Gotta honor your body, you know?

I'm Nick.

- Hi. Lola.

- Hi.

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

Bye.

Anything from Nova Scotia?

Do you shop here a lot?

I can't be picked up right now.

I appreciate the interest,

but I'm in a really bad place.

Gotcha.

I would love to cook you dinner sometime.

Something fresh-caught.

Well, not-- Not by me.

Fresh-bought.

Oh, I don't really like fish.

I'm just eating this because it's salty.

You know, I'm gonna--

I'm gonna give you my number.

You may use it, you may not.

If you do...

...I'm free...

...a week from Friday.

After 7.

But I could do 6:30.

Okay, Leo. "It's time to fasten
