We'll figure it out.

All right.

So...

So she lights that sh*t,

taps him on the shoulder,

She hands it to him right

before it's about to go off.

Oh, my God.

You should have seen

the look on his face.

It's like he just got

a live hand grenade.

Oh, my God,

I was laughing so hard,

I almost puked.

Look at you.

You're looking

a little wind-blown.

What are you talking about?

What was that

devious little smile?

What devious little smile?

I just...

You know, I had a nice

weekend is all.

Something is happening

with you,

and I don't know what it is,

and I need to know, Carol.

Joanie,

English Department only.

What already?

It's just, um...

I think Chris has like

a little crush on me.

Oh, my God,

that's hot!

No, but, wait. I'm worried that

it's gonna affect his re-entry.

- You know...

- No pun intended.

Ha ha ha.

Anyway...

So?

What?

How do you feel

about him?

I... You know, it's Chris.

You know, he's great, but he was

my student, so I can't um...

I mean, of course I'm fond of him.

I mean, 20 years...

You can't help but get

close, you know? But...

I don't know. It's...

Anyway, I'm married.

Maybe Chris could be a little

wake up call for Tom.

Hmm? Pull his head out

of the sand?

Yeah.

I tell you,

that's what I need.

I need a little 38-year-old ex-con

walking around my living room.

Chris is looking for work.

Carol!

- Oh, gosh! But...

- That's funny.

Awful thing to say.

I can't believe

I just said that.

It's not funny.

I told you I kept everything.

Even your tighty whities.

All right, man. Oh!

Here. Before I forget.

Present from Mom.

All right.

- You good?

- Yeah.

He was so close to success.

Alright? So close to saving his love.

So, why does he turn back?

Why does he ruin everything?

With all of his power

as a musician,

all the perfection

of his talent,

he's still only a mortal.

And mortals are flawed.

We are all of us,

cracked vessels.

Hold on once second.

I'll be right back.

Hildy.

Hildy!

Here.

I may pay you a

visit at your place of residence,

or your place

of employment.

Such visits need not

be precipitated

by advance notice

of any kind.

These are the stipulations

as to movement and travel.

You are to stay within

Snohomish County.

A lot of guys get out

and think they're free.

But you're not free yet.

Not by a long shot.

Ted?

Yeah?

Um...

I'm trying to print this thing

and it went away.

Where is it?

Over here.

You go up here,

to "file,"

and "print."

Thank you.

Good night.

The cellular customer

you are calling is not available.

Please leave your message

after the tone.

Hello.

Hey, it's me.

Oh. Uh...

Hello?

Yes. Hi. Hi, how are you?
