You had two weeks and you said nothing?

I know terrible right?

She's supposed to move in tomorrow.

She's going to get there

and I'll be gone.

Oh, so you two were uh...

No of course not.

Well unless you consider

cuddling cheating.

Oh gosh it was this song.

Song?

Yeah, Becca wrote this ballad about me.

About my arms and my eyes.

It was like "He looks at me,

and I want him to see,

the way those brown eyes melted me."

And then there is this whole part

that is like

"Huggably Handsome Hero."

Anyway you had to be there.

But she played it for me and

she said that I inspired her.

I was so excited, that I

didn't know what I was saying,

and I was like

"move in with me."

Wow.

She's gonna be crushed.

You're telling her.

Why?

She'll figure it out on her own.

Trent! Oh my gosh.

It's bad enough you lead her on.

You are not going to make her wait

with her stuff outside

your empty apartment.

I was going to leave her a key.

Why are you always mad

when I tell you things?

Ok, sweetie, listen.

You either, go and tell her,

or you're moving in with her.

Ok, I see how important this is to you.

I guess I'm surprising her

for lunch again.

You mind if I borrow that?

I want her to try it.

Thanks.

I'll call you after I tell,

and then, moving day.

No, it's not a game I'm

playing with you Elenore,

I'll get you a rough when I have one.

That would be the worst game ever.

Look, look my sister is calling.

Yeah, I'll get you something new soon.

Ok, bye.

Pregnancy hotline,

how can I help you miss?

You're not funny Marc.

I'm calling to remind you,

- are you wearing the shirt?

- Yes.

You're lying.

Marc, just wear the shirt,

and some cologne, and be nice.

Yeah, ok.

Thank you, I texted her address to you,

she'll be waiting outside her apartment.

That doesn't sound desperate.

Look, I know you hate this.

But trust me. I have

a good feeling about this.

You have too many

good feelings about me.

Thank you, and wear the shirt.

Yeah, I will.

No Daddy.

You sure? I could have your

brothers on a plane tonight.

And they can't prove anything

if they don't find the body?

No.

Put him in a wheel chair?

No one is flying out here.

What, you don't miss your brothers?

You don't need to fix it.

I know.

He may have been joking, I don't know.

I was just hoping to be done

with moving by now.

He's still moving in?

Jessie you've been out there

six months now.

I think it's time you came home.

There is this young guy at the firm.

No I'd rather die.

He was a wrestler in college

and he has great hair.

Please don't check out

any more guys for me.

I'm fine and Trent is sweet

and handsome and thoughtful, sometimes.
