I talked Wade into dropping

the restraining order,

and they've scheduled

a meeting with you tomorrow

at his lawyer's office.

With me?

Oh, that's good.

That's-I mean...

That's good, right?

Yeah. If you manage to control yourself,

you'll get your clothes back.

Aha! Hallelujah!

Eddie, I gotta call you back.

Yeah, but, De-

Hi, Calvin.

Hey.

- Everything all right?

- Yeah, this drawer just sprung

when I was trying

to clean up and all.

- It just popped open.

- Well, that's not good.

No, ma'am, it's not.

You worked hard here today.

The place looks nice.

Thanks.

Is your brother gonna be

coming back tomorrow?

Nah.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Yeah. Do you think maybe Paddy

would let me fill in for him?

I can make deliveries before

school and come back at 3:00.

I could do that for y'all,

if you want.

Plus, m-m-my family

could really use the money.

I think my dad

would be okay with that.

Yeah? Thanks.

- See you tomorrow.

- Yeah.

- Later, Mr. P.

- Good night, Calvin.

Hey, Dad, about Calvin...

- Oh, yeah, he's a good kid, isn't he?

- Yeah, I like him.

Whoa!

Paddy,

we gotta call that guy to fix the register.

It's popping open again.

Desiree, he lost the last hand,

so Dino has to cook dinner.

You're in luck. You know

I make a mean meatball. Hmm?

Oh, yeah, I know.

What game's playing?

The Sox. The Red Sox and the Yankees.

- You got a bet on 'em?

- No betting.

I already owe you a spaghetti.

Oh, it's hit deep to center!

It's going, it's going,

it's gone!

Let's get up and move

Dad!

- Morning.

- Morning.

I just killed my blow dryer.

Your what?

How am I supposed

to straighten my hair?

Have you seen the dress

I was wearing when I got here?

I washed it for you.

Here it is,

hot out of the dryer.

- The dryer?

- Yeah.

Oops.

Oh, no, no!

My Missoni!

Maybe we could

wet it, you know, and stretch it back out.

It's not a sea monkey!

It doesn't expand

when you add water!

What am I gonna do now?

I have a meeting with Wade

in two hours,

and I have nothing to wear!

Don't be ridiculous.

You got a whole closet

full of clothes.

Oh!

I know you think

I'm falling apart

But you rock my heart

Girl, you rock my heart

I know I should

be ready to go

But you rock my heart

You keep on

rockin' my heart

Just imagine

We could make up

and start our life over

This time I would

hold you in my arms

Till the stars

melted into the ocean

But I'll promise

I'll never look up

- Desiree?

- Ohh...

Lana.

Wow. I almost

didn't recognize you.

What happened?

Retro.

Okay. Well, can I just say

the '80s have come and gone.

Twice.

I was just in a meeting

with my business manager,

and he was telling me
