That's a good idea. The thing

will probably just fix itself.

Well, I can't seem to make her happy.

How can you love someone

so much and not know how...

how to love her?

So you do love her?

Yes, very much.

Yeah, well, that's all that matters.

She's going away tomorrow, for two weeks.

And she wants me to go with her.

What if she never came back?

What sort of a question is that?

Well, come on, picture it.

You wave goodbye at the airport,

she gets on an airplane...

you never see her again.

Could you live with that?

No.

No, I couldn't.

Well, you know what to do.

Appreciate her, and what you have.

Just love her.

It's not for another two blocks.

You can't show up empty-handed.

You know, if Ian bought a ticket

and if he's coming home with me,

that's really sweet. I mean

maybe he's coming around.

I hope so. You deserve it.

And if Ian doesn't know that,

he's nothing but a fuckwit.

You always know exactly what to say.

Now remember, you are the bee's knees.

It's a good thing.

Have a great time tonight.

Thank you. Bye.

Next, Melvina Walters will sing...

Juliet's waltz, by Gounod.

Hey. Thanks.

You ready?

Uh, yeah. I'll see you later.

Enjoy the great trip.

Oh, hey, Oliver, oh, you made it, hi!

Are you kidding? He wouldn't

have missed it for the world.

She was the best one.

I love Miss Andrews.

Everyone does.

If I was just a few years older...

You!

- This is for you.

- Oh, well... Thank you.

Ian, is this not just the cutest card?

Yeah.

We should go.

- Well, I...

- That's okay,

We need to go, too.

It was a disaster,

Dunbar passed, Trahern is pissed

and I'm screwed.

- God, Ian, I'm so sorry...

- Forget it.

So... What else is going on?

Lottie has an exhibit tomorrow.

Some bigshot gallery, the 'Zinc'.

And I went down there this afternoon

to help her...

Sounds like fun.

Wanna dance?

When have you ever seen me dance?

So where did you go this afternoon

after your meeting?

I called your cell like a zillion times.

Oh, I turned it off,

I didn't wanna hear from anyone.

I spent the rest of the day

walking around the city, thinking.

About?

About us, and whether

we were gonna make it.

No, I didn't mean that,

you don't understand.

You have to admit our morning was

not the greatest, and the meeting was...

Well, I was wondering what to do,

and then I met this cab driver, and we talked.

A cab driver, you talked...

Sounds weird, but it was good, really.

He made me realize that even though you

and I have problems, we share a lot, too.

We enjoy each other, and

I should appreciate that.

It's underneath everything

and despite this awful day,

I adore you.

I guess what I'm saying is, I...
