I'm close. I visit on and off.

Came back today

for Pete's poker tournament.

Yeah, he is awful at poker.

I destroyed him.

He's just so bad.

What about you? How's LA?

Dreams don't disappear!

No, they don't.

But...

people do.

Ouch! Is that directed at me?

No, no. Of course not.

Okay, maybe a little bit.

Hey, you ran off to Atlanta

for college, remember?

Yeah, but that's a close drive

compared to the Hollywood sign.

And where would an actress go

to get a career?

I'm not judging.

I'm just saying.

You've been missed around here.

A lot has changed

since you've been gone.

Hey.

I can see that.

Now I know what was taking so

long for you to get that wine.

Look at you two.

Together again at last.

So cute.

So... how long

have you guys been...

- Two months.

- Two weeks.

Two weeks?

And what were we doing

before that?

Two months. I meant two months.

Two weeks was, like,

officially became the...

Yep.

Two months.

Are you ready to go home?

Why don't we stay?

I haven't seen Clarissa in a while.

It'll be good to catch up.

Well, of course we want

to catch up with Clarissa.

Come on, let's go back

outside then, shall we?

Okay.

A lot's changed.

Great.

[Veronica] Clarissa,

you have to tell us.

Have you been dating

any celebrities?

Well, a lot of recurring TV guest

stars turn into non-recurring dates,

so, no, no one famous.

What did you call them?

"On-set romances"?

Showmances.

Wasn't there

that director, Zeke?

Yeah. That was a lifetime ago.

Yeah. And he dumped her

on her birthday.

We hate that guy.

I mean, in his defense, he

didn't know it was my birthday.

And I'm focusing on my career

right now anyway, so...

- It's fine.

- That's a good thing.

But by choice, because of course

all the guys just

adore her out there.

And I totally respect that you

just focus on your career.

And that takes

a lot of dedication.

And it sounds

like it's paying off.

You know, with this

big movie role and all.

You booked a film?

That's awesome! Congrats.

Yeah. Well...

[Graham] When does it come out?

You know, I don't know.

You know, my scene

could get cut, so...

Why would your scene get cut?

I mean, don't they

need you in the film?

Aren't you, like,

a lead character?

Well, I wouldn't

say that exactly...

Okay, guys.

You guys, it's complicated.

I mean, you know she has to sign, like, a

non-disclosure deal and all that stuff, so...

She's not even allowed

to talk about it. Right?

It's top secret.

Like, they shred

the script pages every day,

so, like, no one knows,

who's gonna die.

-[Maya] No one dies, babe.

-[cell phone chimes]

- It's a romantic comedy.

- Right. Yeah.

Wait.

Is that...
