but what they're asking,

it's like they're forcing me

to say it.

Say what?

- Well, there's no nice way

of telling someone you love them

but you don't want them around.

- No, you don't have to explain

yourself to me. I get it.

If Mischa wanted

to move in with me,

I'd be like, "hell no, b*tch."

-Right?

- They're asking me to take on

a full-time job

when I'm about to be up to my

tits in eight shows per week.

And looking after her isn't

exactly a cakewalk, you know?

- I know. I remember how she was

in high school.

But she seems much better now.

-No, yeah, you're right.

She is better.

There's just a lot.

She's... a lot.

- Well,

then why did you invite her?

-Hi, Robbie.

-Hi, uh, Cynthia on my table.

-What was that, honey?

- I just said,

why did you invite her, then,

if you don't want

to deal with her all night?

- Well,

I had to cheer her up somehow,

and pancakes weren't exactly

doing the trick.

- I just... I don't... i-i

don't want you to keep an eye

on her the whole time is all.

- I got it covered, babe.

- Yeah, I know.

I just... I have a lot of

friends coming from work is all.

-So?

-So I'm just stressed.

Forget I said anything.

- Is that why you're wearing

a tie?

- You don't like this?

- I got to go get dressed.

Cynthia, bowl these.

- Okay.

- Stand clear

of the closing doors, please.

- It's such a...

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Good evening.

My name's Jane.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Good evening.

My name's Jane.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

You do know my sister.

Ugh.

- Oh, Bianca,

how's playing Titania?

- Oh, my god. Wait.

Is that the "midsummer"

directed by Harrison west?

- When did this happen?

How'd you get the part?

- Um, there was an open casting

call on backstage, and...

- didn't he direct "die hard 6"

or something?

- I think it is incredible

how he is making

the transition

from screen to stage.

-That's so amazing, b. B.

I'm, like, so happy for you.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

Just... can you

excuse me one minute?

Sorry, guys.

-Already a f***ing diva.

- Ew.

- So... -oop, oop, oop.

- So, yeah.

-Wait. When is the wedding?

- Uh, well, we haven't set a date

just yet.

- Well, are you thinking

a summer wedding?

- Uh, not sure. Uh, most of

my family lives in Boston now.

Most of hers are here.

It's just a question

of where to funnel them.

- I've always wanted

to get married someplace warm

like the Bahamas.

Nice digs, Robbie boy.

- Uh, thanks, my man.

We are very happy with it.

Uh, a lot less noisy

than the village was, you know?

Uh, low crime.

Subway's just two blocks away.

Came with this awesome swing.

- Relax, rob.

We're not looking to buy it.
