Delicious.

Disgusting.

- Right?

- But delicious.

- So good.

- Mmm.

Have you heard

of Prophets and Outlaws?

Oh, yeah.

Southern country rock.

They had that song

"Soul Shop."

Yeah.

Yeah, bunch of great songs.

They're performing

tonight near campus.

Yeah? You want to go?

Uh, they don't go

on until 8:
00.

Well, I'll just push our

flights tomorrow till later.

Really?

Mm-hmm, sure. Yeah.

You just need to focus on

your interview right now, okay?

- Okay.

- Give me that.

- Mmm.

- Hey!

Canned cheese is

so much better.

So much better.

Agh.

Amazing.

Hey, how'd it go?

My interviewer had

amazing internships

and already has, like, three

job offers when he graduates.

That's awesome.

Come in.

I think I did pretty well.

He loves Family Buddies.

I can do this.

I mean, I'm terrified.

And the kids here

are way above me.

And if I don't

get a scholarship,

I don't have a prayer.

But I--I could see myself

here, thanks to you.

Oh, hey.

I just--I would never have

the guts to do this on my own.

You're happy?

Absolutely.

This is for you.

What?

It's for all your hard work.

Well, I haven't

worked hard yet.

Oh, you will.

Trust me.

Oh.

Mark, I--this is just...

Well, try it on.

Now?

Yeah.

Yeah, absolutely.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

Wow.

You look stunning.

Yeah?

Phew.

Ready to rock and roll?

Sure.

The guy recites poetry

while we're doing it.

I swear I had to

put my hand over his

mouth just to shut him up.

I--look, I told Jack

it's 750 for tonight.

So close your eyes and

dream of the bank roll.

Ugh.

Can you do that?

Okay. But any poetry,

and I am out.

Rain, rolling

down my window

Put a wrench

in everything I had today

And so I cancelled

all my plans

I'm gonna find a new

solution right away

When I'm down

head under water

To ease my woes

I sing out my sins with

the ones I love the most

You can find me

at the soul shop

Where my daddy

taught me how to rock...

Let's get out of here.

Hey, wake up,

sleepyhead.

We gotta get back.

I can't believe

we did this.

Linda is amazing to me.

She's like a second mom.

Listen, Linda's great.

I love Linda,

and I always will.

So what are we doing?

You want the Oprah answer?

The truth is we're more

friends than lovers now.

The magic's kinda gone.

Hey.

Hey, stop worrying so much.

Hmm?

You know what

I'm thinking about?

Hmm?

I can guess.

I'm thinking about your

first day at Pressman.

You're meeting new friends,

picking classes,

living away from home

for the first time.

You know what you

won't be thinking about?

What?

Room and board, tuition.

I am taking care

of everything.

You're my girl.

I got you covered.

Strong SAT scores.

You'll probably
