Short filmTranscript
00:00:01I used to live in a quiet, convenient world of thought spirals and internal panic.
00:00:07But when the pipe in my apartment broke, suddenly all the sounds I'd been drowning out came bursting to the forefront.
00:00:14The suffocating boyfriend, the heroic neighbor who saves me from spiders, and evidently the new role as his fake girlfriend.
00:00:23But what happens when an unexpected living arrangement turns into unexpected chemistry?
00:00:30And the walls you've built to protect yourself, begin to crumble at the touch.
00:00:48See? I told you I looked better here, didn't I?
00:00:51Yeah, yeah, you're right.
00:00:53Of course I'm right. I know what's best for you, baby.
00:01:00Oh, that's work. Gotta go.
00:01:04Oh, okay.
00:01:06What?
00:01:08Oh, um, nothing. It's just...
00:01:10I thought you said you took the day off so you could help me move in.
00:01:14Well, you know if I don't work, then I don't get paid.
00:01:16And if I don't get paid, how am I supposed to afford those fancy dinners I take you out on?
00:01:20Right. Speaking of, um, as of next week we'll have been dating a whole year. Maybe we could do something.
00:01:29Eh, well, we've been going out on dates for about a year.
00:01:35That's what I said.
00:01:36Well, that's not exactly what you said. I mean, you're not looking for anything serious, right?
00:01:41What?
00:01:43Well, I mean, I'm trying to start my business and you're waiting on a phone call from the library.
00:01:49I think that we're good as is.
00:01:51I mean, we don't have to put a label on anything, right, babe?
00:01:57Yeah, right, yeah.
00:01:59Okay, well, I gotta go, so I will see you later.
00:02:03Mm-hmm.
00:02:15Adam!
00:02:20Oh, shit.
00:02:25Perfect.
00:02:27Wonderful.
00:02:33Okay.
00:02:45Ma'am, I need you to stop what you're doing and put your hands in the air.
00:02:49Hands above your head.
00:02:50What the hell?
00:02:51Ma'am, if you don't cooperate, I'm going to be forced to grab you.
00:02:53No, no, no, wait, wait. I'm not breaking in. This is my apartment. I live here.
00:02:56Strike three.
00:02:58What are you doing? Oh, my God.
00:03:01I'm asking you for breaking and entering.
00:03:02Oh, my God. This is my apartment, you lunatic. I live here.
00:03:08Do you have documentation to prove that?
00:03:10Yeah, check my phone. The lease is in my email.
00:03:12All right, we'll see about that.
00:03:15Email, huh?
00:03:17Where do I look?
00:03:18What do you mean? It's right at the top.
00:03:21Huh.
00:03:22Oh, what'd you look like?
00:03:23Yeah. Okay, can you uncuff me now, please?
00:03:32For the record, credit card works better.
00:03:44Hello.
00:03:45Who are you?
00:03:46Jake. Apartment D.
00:03:48Nice to meet you, neighbor.
00:03:52And you are...
00:03:55Noel.
00:03:56Pleasure, Noel.
00:03:57Well, if you need a cup of sugar or a get-out-of-jail-free card, you know where to find me.
00:04:02How about an apology?
00:04:04For what?
00:04:06Protecting and serving? That's kind of my job.
00:04:09Oh, so your job is being an impulsive asshole who goes around cuffing innocent people?
00:04:13See you around, neighbor.
00:04:24You wish, asshole.
00:04:33Jerk.
00:04:34Who the hell does he think he is?
00:04:36You're under arrest.
00:04:38I live here.
00:04:43Hi, Aunt Shelley.
00:04:47Jakey! I'm so glad you answered.
00:04:48I just wanted to check in with you.
00:04:50I miss you.
00:04:51It's been so long.
00:04:53I miss you too, Aunt Shelley.
00:04:54Jake, I know these past few years have been hard for you, but your parents wouldn't want you to live this way.
00:05:00You're practically a recluse at this point.
00:05:03I'm fine, Aunt Shelley. Really.
00:05:04How about I come by?
00:05:05I can bring this lovely woman you need to meet.
00:05:07She's the daughter of my friend from Swim Aerobics.
00:05:10No, uh, don't do that.
00:05:11I'm actually seeing someone.
00:05:14You are?
00:05:16Yeah, I didn't want to say anything.
00:05:18Didn't know if it was serious, but she just moved in, so, uh, no need to set me up.
00:05:24Well, I can't wait to meet her. I'll pop by sometime.
00:05:26No, don't do that. She's, uh, shy.
00:05:28Nonsense.
00:05:38Aunt Shelley, I have to go.
00:05:41Let's go.
00:05:48What are you doing in here?
00:05:49I heard screaming. I thought you were in trouble.
00:05:51Well, it's okay for you to break in, but not me?
00:05:53Listen, I only came to help, but clearly you don't need me, so I'll just leave.
00:05:57Wait, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait.
00:05:59There's a spider.
00:06:07Uh, is that what all the festival is about?
00:06:11Yeah, I just can't.
00:06:13Here, I'll escort him out.
00:06:27The spider now lives in a tree outside your window.
00:06:31I thought you were gonna, um, thank you.
00:06:37Truce.
00:06:41Look, I'm sorry about earlier.
00:06:43Honestly, I thought you were trying to rob the place, and my training kicked him.
00:06:55Yeah, truce.
00:06:57You were right, though. I was being an asshole.
00:07:01Usually, when I'm cuffing the innocent, it's consensual.
00:07:09You're cute when you're flustered.
00:07:11I'm not, I'm not flustered.
00:07:13You're sure about that.
00:07:23Um, I'm seeing someone.
00:07:25Congratulations.
00:07:27Okay, yeah, so stop flirting.
00:07:29Me? Flirting?
00:07:31I'm just being friendly.
00:07:33Oh, we're friends now.
00:07:35I would say so, yeah.
00:07:37I saved your ass twice in less than 24 hours.
00:07:39Oh my god, however can I repay you?
00:07:41You want a loan? A kidney?
00:07:43Actually...
00:07:45Seriously? That was a joke.
00:07:47Would you pretend to be my girlfriend?
00:07:49What?
00:07:51Look, um...
00:07:53My aunt's coming to town, and I might have accidentally told her I'm seeing someone.
00:07:59So you lied?
00:08:00Potato, potato.
00:08:03So what do you say?
00:08:05I just told you I'm seeing someone, and you're a complete stranger.
00:08:07Why would I do this?
00:08:08But I'm not a stranger, though.
00:08:10I'm your neighbor.
00:08:12You're friendly.
00:08:13Handsome.
00:08:15Charming.
00:08:17Charitable.
00:08:18Lockpicking.
00:08:19Lockpicking, yeah.
00:08:24Look, you would really be doing me a solid.
00:08:26It's a long story about my aunt.
00:08:28She's really worried about me.
00:08:29She thinks I've given up on love or whatever.
00:08:32Have you?
00:08:35Well, that's not the point.
00:08:37Look, I just want to give her peace of mind.
00:08:39All you have to do is come over for one dinner,
00:08:42tell one little white lie, and that's it.
00:08:45You're not hurting anyone.
00:08:48Please.
00:08:49You'd be making a really wonderful woman very happy.
00:08:53She's like a second mother to me.
00:08:56I don't want to disappoint her.
00:08:58One dinner?
00:09:00One dinner.
00:09:04Fine.
00:09:06Great.
00:09:10Am I interrupting something?
00:09:17I don't know.
00:09:18No, this is my neighbor, Jake.
00:09:22Yeah, he was helping me with a spider.
00:09:25Babe, I told you a million times.
00:09:27Just kill it.
00:09:29If you need help, you can call me.
00:09:32Right.
00:09:34Well, I should probably go.
00:09:37That's a good idea, Jake.
00:09:45I'll see you later, Noah.
00:10:08Hey, Taylor.
00:10:09Reynolds.
00:10:11I'm Reynolds today.
00:10:13Why so formal?
00:10:15I reviewed your closing numbers, and they're not where they should be.
00:10:17We need you getting through more cases per month.
00:10:20I'm working as fast as I can, boss.
00:10:22No.
00:10:23You're fixating all your time on this robbery case, and the Chief told you to lay off it.
00:10:29It's not just one robbery case.
00:10:31There's a string of them, and I'm sure they're all connected.
00:10:34And proving that would make you feel like the big hero.
00:10:37It's not about my damn ego, Taylor. It's about justice.
00:10:39Well, I can't run a department that doesn't meet quota.
00:10:45Are you sure you're not singling me out for any particular reason?
00:10:48Excuse me? Are you implying something, Officer Reynolds?
00:10:53I'm not implying anything at all.
00:10:57That's what I thought.
00:10:59Now get back to work.
00:11:00Oh, my God, Jake. I am so sorry.
00:11:19You know, this building has gotten a lot more interesting since you moved in.
00:11:23Are you okay?
00:11:24I'm fine. Seriously, I'm fine.
00:11:27Um, I can get the coffee out.
00:11:31Don't worry about me.
00:11:33No, please, please, let me help. I'm really sorry.
00:11:36Just, uh, yeah, come to my apartment. It'll just take a few minutes.
00:11:42Whatever you say.
00:11:43Okay.
00:11:44You know, I can just bring this over to you after if you want to, you know, get changed.
00:11:59And this is the magic you're working? I don't think so.
00:12:02It's just baking soda, white vinegar, and water. Works every time.
00:12:06You work at a dry cleaners or something?
00:12:11No.
00:12:13I work in a bookstore.
00:12:16You know the one down on Main Street?
00:12:18How do you like it?
00:12:20Um, it's not exactly my dream, but, uh, it's close, I guess.
00:12:25What's the dream?
00:12:26I just got my MLIS degree to be a librarian.
00:12:32You want to be an archivist?
00:12:34Research how to print children's books at a university library.
00:12:38Specific.
00:12:42How do you get a job like that?
00:12:44Uh, turns out it's not easy.
00:12:47Hence the bookstore.
00:12:48Well, you have a change of mind about careers. You have an excellent future and stay in room mobile.
00:13:01You're flirting again.
00:13:04Can a friend compliment another friend?
00:13:14I think that's your door.
00:13:15Jake?
00:13:18Are you home?
00:13:20I should go.
00:13:25Thanks again.
00:13:45What are you doing here?
00:13:46Where were you?
00:13:48Why are you shirtless?
00:13:49Don't worry about it.
00:13:50What are you doing here?
00:13:51I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:13:53I know you had a rough day, and...
00:13:55Like I said, I can't keep you on that robbery case without the Chief's permission, but...
00:14:00Maybe I can help take your mind off of it. You know? The way I used to.
00:14:07Taylor, we can't do this.
00:14:10Sure we can. We have. Many times.
00:14:15Nothing strange. We tried.
00:14:18You're not right for each other.
00:14:20I can't give you what you want.
00:14:22You don't want me?
00:14:24I don't know what I want, Taylor.
00:14:26Never do.
00:14:27You're an asshole.
00:14:28I'm just being honest.
00:14:29Those are not mutually exclusive traits.
00:14:30You know?
00:14:31You can't close yourself off forever, Jake.
00:14:32One of these days you're going to wake up and realize just how lonely you are.
00:14:33Look, Taylor, I'm sorry. I really am.
00:14:34I hope we can still be professional about all of this.
00:14:35I hope we can still be professional about all of this.
00:14:36I don't know what I want, Taylor.
00:14:37You don't want me?
00:14:38I don't know what I want, Taylor.
00:14:40I never do.
00:14:42You're an asshole.
00:14:44You're an asshole.
00:14:45I'm just being honest.
00:14:46Those are not mutually exclusive traits.
00:14:48You know, you can't close yourself off forever, Jake.
00:14:52One of these days you're going to wake up and realize just how lonely you are.
00:14:57Look, Taylor, I'm sorry.
00:14:59I really am.
00:15:01I hope we can still be professional about all of this.
00:15:04Look, I know you don't want a relationship, Jake Reynolds.
00:15:08But I will be the girl that changes your mind.
00:15:10Just you watch.
00:15:34Hello, Mr. Saunders.
00:15:35Noelle, I need you to dust the top of the bookshelves today.
00:15:40Yes, sir.
00:15:44What an excellent use of my time and talent.
00:16:01Hi.
00:16:02Sorry.
00:16:03I just meant to take my over shirt off.
00:16:07Would you mind putting me in the direction of-
00:16:09Health and fitness?
00:16:11That great.
00:16:14I was actually looking for Toni Morrison.
00:16:17But it's good to know I come off as totally insufferable.
00:16:22Oh, my God.
00:16:23I am so sorry.
00:16:24I-I assumed.
00:16:26Has anyone ever told you not to judge a book by its cover?
00:16:31Uh...
00:16:33Toni Morrison is right there.
00:16:35Thank you. I appreciate it.
00:16:37I'll get it this way.
00:16:39Oh, sorry. Okay.
00:16:43Hey, what's up, babe?
00:16:45I got the book that she wanted.
00:16:46All right.
00:16:47I got the book that she wanted.
00:16:48All right.
00:16:49I got the book that she wanted.
00:16:51All right.
00:16:52Hello?
00:16:53Hey.
00:16:54Hey, sorry. I know you're at work, but, um...
00:16:56I just heard from the university.
00:16:57I'm sorry, Noel.
00:16:59I can't talk right now.
00:17:00I'm bad.
00:17:01Oh, no, no.
00:17:02Oh, no.
00:17:04Oh, no, no.
00:17:05Oh, no, no.
00:17:07Hello?
00:17:09Hey!
00:17:10Hey.
00:17:11Hey, sorry. I know you're at work, but, um...
00:17:13I just heard from the university-
00:17:15I'm sorry, Noel.
00:17:16I can't talk right now.
00:17:17I'm tired.
00:17:18But I'm sorry, Noel.
00:17:19Take me out.
00:17:20I'm sorry, Noel.
00:17:21I can't talk right now.
00:17:22Oh, no.
00:17:23I'm sorry, Newell, I can't talk right now, I'm busy.
00:17:26Right, yeah, okay, but maybe we could get a drink
00:17:29after work or something.
00:17:32I think it's gonna be a late night.
00:17:33Brain check?
00:17:38My God, I'm definitely getting a drink.
00:17:43Oh, fuck.
00:17:49What the hell?
00:17:53Oh, fuck.
00:17:57Bye.
00:17:58Okay.
00:18:06Seriously.
00:18:09Oh, come on.
00:18:19You're welcome.
00:18:23Why are you in my apartment?
00:18:32I'm trying to break in again.
00:18:33Actually, this is my apartment.
00:18:37Because I'm really tired.
00:18:38I cannot entertain right now.
00:18:39I know.
00:18:40We're gonna get you home.
00:18:41I am home.
00:18:43Not quite.
00:18:45Can I take you to your place?
00:18:46You smell good.
00:18:53Thanks.
00:18:55Come on, let's go.
00:18:56Oh, where are you going?
00:18:57Oh, I got you.
00:18:59Oh, my God.
00:19:01You're really strong.
00:19:02I try.
00:19:03Noelle, this is my apartment.
00:19:15You can stay here tonight, though.
00:19:19My hero.
00:19:21Okay.
00:19:22Okay.
00:19:23Okay.
00:19:24Okay.
00:19:25None of that.
00:19:27You don't want to kiss me?
00:19:29You don't like me?
00:19:30I do want to kiss you.
00:19:35Hmm.
00:19:36But not right now.
00:19:39Why not?
00:19:41Well, because you're extremely drunk, and also you have a boyfriend.
00:19:47I don't have a boyfriend.
00:19:50Boys don't boyfriend me.
00:19:53What about that guy I met?
00:19:54I don't have a boyfriend.
00:19:56I don't have a boyfriend.
00:19:58I don't have a boyfriend.
00:20:01I don't have a boyfriend.
00:20:03We don't think about it.
00:20:11Good night, Lola.
00:20:13We just fall into each other's arms.
00:20:18Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:48Oh, no, no, no.
00:21:18Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:21:28You've been really doing some great work.
00:21:33You should be proud.
00:21:34Keep it up.
00:21:35Damn it.
00:21:38What's got you so worked up?
00:21:39Um, nothing.
00:21:41It's nothing.
00:21:42Seriously, Jake, that case wasn't assigned to you.
00:21:45There's another robbery on Main Street.
00:21:46They've got to be connected, Taylor.
00:21:50Let me take a look.
00:21:58Did you check for prints on that banister?
00:22:00No, just the front door.
00:22:01I mean, they might match the ones from last week.
00:22:05Good catch, Taylor.
00:22:07I'll get someone around the prints.
00:22:10I'll do it.
00:22:12You get back to your caseload.
00:22:15Is this punishment for the other night?
00:22:17Punishment?
00:22:18We'll be reporting you to the chief.
00:22:20Now get back to work, Reynolds.
00:22:22You're assigned work.
00:22:33Who is it?
00:22:36It's me.
00:22:38Come on in.
00:22:41Hey.
00:22:42Hey.
00:22:43How are you feeling?
00:22:46So I'm just coming by to say that I'm sorry about last night.
00:22:52Don't worry about it.
00:22:54Yeah, I'm honestly not sure how I even got into your apartment, but thank you for letting
00:22:59me sleep on your couch.
00:23:01Anytime.
00:23:02For the record, I did try to get you back to your own apartment.
00:23:05Oh, my God.
00:23:05Oh, my God.
00:23:07That was a mess.
00:23:08You should have thrown me out.
00:23:11Actually, we're kind of cute.
00:23:16No.
00:23:17Oh, God.
00:23:17No way.
00:23:18No.
00:23:18So, you don't remember anything?
00:23:26No.
00:23:27No.
00:23:27God, isn't that embarrassing?
00:23:30Okay, so, um, I'm going to retreat to my apartment in shame now.
00:23:34Bye.
00:23:35Hey, I'm making burgers.
00:23:41Want one?
00:23:43Really?
00:23:44They're good hangover food.
00:23:50Mmm.
00:23:53Yeah, that's amazing.
00:23:55It tastes just like the ones my mom used to make when I was a kid.
00:23:58Is she a good cook?
00:24:00Yeah, she was.
00:24:01I'm sorry.
00:24:02Oh, it's okay.
00:24:06I mean, she passed about ten years ago, but before she got sick, she loved cooking.
00:24:11Burgers, yes, but she also made this pound cake and put this amazing fruit compote on
00:24:16it.
00:24:16Yeah.
00:24:17I'm sorry.
00:24:19I tend to ramble, as you've probably noticed.
00:24:22I'm just impressed you can talk about all this.
00:24:26That's a long time ago.
00:24:28Took a while, but, um...
00:24:31No, I like talking about her.
00:24:34Makes me feel like she's still here.
00:24:40I, um...
00:24:42Lost both of my parents as well.
00:24:45Both of them?
00:24:48Yeah, I don't talk about it much.
00:24:52You can tell me.
00:24:54If you want.
00:24:55It's, uh...
00:24:58It's, uh...
00:24:58Kind of, uh...
00:25:01Heavy story.
00:25:04It's alright.
00:25:05It's alright.
00:25:05Thanks for cooking.
00:25:19Um...
00:25:19Thanks for...
00:25:22Thanks for cooking.
00:25:24Anytime.
00:25:27Um...
00:25:28Would your, um...
00:25:30Would your, um...
00:25:31Would your pretty friend be okay with us having dinner?
00:25:34I didn't realize you met Taylor.
00:25:37Mm.
00:25:37Yeah, I know.
00:25:38I saw her in the hallway the other day.
00:25:41Um...
00:25:41She's beautiful.
00:25:43Yeah.
00:25:44Uh...
00:25:44She's your...
00:25:45Is she your girlfriend?
00:25:45No, she isn't my girlfriend.
00:25:48Mm.
00:25:48We just work together.
00:25:49Mm.
00:25:50Okay.
00:25:53We were...
00:25:54Friends with benefits.
00:25:57But...
00:25:58That was a long time ago.
00:26:06What about your...
00:26:07Guy friend?
00:26:09Oh, Adam?
00:26:12I gotta say, I don't love the way he speaks to you.
00:26:14Is he always so...
00:26:17Protective?
00:26:18I was gonna say, controlling.
00:26:20Especially for someone who isn't your boyfriend.
00:26:27It's complicated.
00:26:34What was that?
00:26:40Burst pipe.
00:26:42Oh my god.
00:26:42Get some towels.
00:26:44Yeah, it was crazy.
00:26:47The super says there won't be water or power for, like, at least a week.
00:26:50Maybe two.
00:26:51Jeez, that sucks.
00:26:53Do you need a place to stay?
00:26:54Yeah.
00:26:55Yeah, no, that would be great, Adam.
00:26:57A buddy of mine from work, he has a guest house.
00:26:59I'll give you his contact info.
00:27:02Right, right.
00:27:03Thanks.
00:27:03Of course, babe.
00:27:04I told you you could call me anytime you need help.
00:27:06I soaked up most of the water, but they're gonna need to completely rip out most of your plumbing.
00:27:20Can't get your break, huh?
00:27:22Do you have some place to go?
00:27:26Yeah, no, I'll figure it out.
00:27:27Um, don't, don't worry about me.
00:27:29I'm definitely gonna worry about you.
00:27:31You can't stay here.
00:27:32No, no, I'll be fine.
00:27:34Look, I don't want to be weird, but I have a second bedroom.
00:27:38Do you want to stay with me?
00:27:41Really?
00:27:43What are friends for?
00:27:49Here we are.
00:27:53I really hope I'm not imposing.
00:27:55Not at all.
00:27:57Seriously, make yourself a home.
00:27:58The place is all yours.
00:27:59The bathroom is right down the hall.
00:28:02Do you have everything you need?
00:28:04Yes, thank you.
00:28:11Can't believe you're coming to my rescue yet again.
00:28:25Can I go?
00:28:28Um, goodnight, Jake.
00:28:34Oh, sorry.
00:28:39I thought you were sleeping.
00:28:40All good.
00:28:42Need anything?
00:28:43Oh, yeah, I just wanted a glass of water.
00:28:47Want a beer, too?
00:28:50Ah, why not?
00:28:51What are you reading?
00:29:05Case files.
00:29:07It's been a string of burglaries.
00:29:08Hopper House.
00:29:10That's what we call it when a burglary happens when the home or business is occupied.
00:29:13This one actually happened at a clothing store on Main Street, not too far away from where you work.
00:29:20Oh, jeez.
00:29:21I really want to catch this guy before someone gets hurt.
00:29:25What are you going to do if you catch him?
00:29:28In the act, I mean.
00:29:30In the act?
00:29:31I don't know.
00:29:34Here, let me show you.
00:29:37Okay.
00:29:38If you're being attacked, the first thing you need to do is stay calm.
00:29:46Now, let's say your attacker has a gun.
00:29:51In that situation,
00:29:53you're going to want to do two things.
00:30:00First thing,
00:30:02and then get them all balanced.
00:30:04What?
00:30:08Good.
00:30:09That was really good.
00:30:10Yeah?
00:30:11Yeah.
00:30:12You're a quick learner.
00:30:14Oh, you're a good teacher.
00:30:19Sorry, I'm probably, um, crushing you.
00:30:22I don't mind.
00:30:25Right.
00:30:26Right.
00:30:28Mr. Complicator.
00:30:34Yes, thank you for the lesson.
00:30:36It's good.
00:30:38Okay, weirdo.
00:30:41You want another beer?
00:30:43Oh.
00:30:44No, I'm pretty tired.
00:30:46I think I'm going to go read a book in bed.
00:30:48Sure.
00:30:49Okay.
00:30:50Goodbye.
00:30:51Good night.
00:30:51Good night.
00:30:51Peace.
00:31:07I'm sorry.
00:31:07What are you doing here?
00:31:09I told you I'd pop by.
00:31:12Oh, you must be the girlfriend.
00:31:14Oh.
00:31:14Oh.
00:31:15That's me.
00:31:18Oh, I'm so happy to meet you.
00:31:21I thought my nephew was going to be alone forever.
00:31:24All right, Aunt Shelley, let her breathe.
00:31:26Oh, of course, of course.
00:31:28Silly me.
00:31:29Please, Aunt Shelley, take a seat.
00:31:31Can I get you a cup of coffee?
00:31:33Yes, please, dear.
00:31:34Okay.
00:31:35Hopefully your lovely girlfriend's manners will rub off on you, young man.
00:31:39Oh, believe me, I'm working on it.
00:31:41I like her already.
00:31:45So, Noelle, I want to know everything.
00:31:53What do you do, sweetie?
00:31:55I work in a bookstore.
00:31:56Don't be modest, babe.
00:31:58She has her MLS degree.
00:32:00That's so impressive.
00:32:02I'm looking for jobs at university libraries.
00:32:05I want to make a real contribution to my field.
00:32:07Ever since my favorite book went out of print when I was a kid,
00:32:09I've just been obsessed with researching and archiving.
00:32:13You don't have to explain it to me.
00:32:14Practically the whole family's in academia.
00:32:17You should have seen Jake's parents' library.
00:32:19It was enormous.
00:32:21Oh, what was the book called?
00:32:23The Runaway Sardine.
00:32:24I've been looking for it for a long time, but it's impossible to find.
00:32:27I love that book.
00:32:28I used to read it to Liam Oliver all the time when he was growing up.
00:32:32Oh, that's Jake's cousin, my son.
00:32:35You'll meet him at the wedding.
00:32:37Wedding?
00:32:37Jake, you didn't tell her about the wedding?
00:32:42Okay, well, this has been a very nice visit, but we have to go to work, so...
00:32:47Oh, of course.
00:32:48I'll see you after then.
00:32:49We can do dinner.
00:32:51What do you mean?
00:32:53Well, obviously I'm staying over.
00:32:55I came all this way.
00:32:56I'm going to stay a few nights with my nephew.
00:32:59Oh, don't worry.
00:33:00I won't crowd you, lovebirds.
00:33:13This is fine, right?
00:33:15Yeah.
00:33:17She needs the spare bedroom.
00:33:20Sorry.
00:33:23We can make a barrier.
00:33:30Great, yeah.
00:33:53So you think we convinced her?
00:33:55Yeah, definitely.
00:33:57Hey, lucky you.
00:33:58Didn't even have to kiss me.
00:34:00It wasn't so bad the last time.
00:34:03Last time?
00:34:15Oh.
00:34:17This is okay, right?
00:34:18I really like you.
00:34:46It's...
00:34:47Oh my god.
00:34:48No, no, I'm not rejecting you.
00:34:49I'm not.
00:34:52I like you a lot.
00:34:53You're smart, you're funny, and I'm really attracted to you.
00:34:57It's just...
00:34:58It's what?
00:34:59It's just that...
00:35:00I got a lot of complicated going on right now, and I don't want to mislead you.
00:35:08So I just want to be clear.
00:35:10If you're looking for something casual, I'm your guy, but...
00:35:13I can't give you anything else.
00:35:22Fuck.
00:35:22Fuck.
00:35:26Why does this always happen?
00:35:27What?
00:35:29Men like me enough to want to be with me, but never to commit to me.
00:35:36No, that's not it.
00:35:37I swear.
00:35:37Oh, let me guess.
00:35:38It's not you, it's me.
00:35:42Yeah, they always say that too.
00:35:43Good night, Jake.
00:36:04Detective Reynolds.
00:36:05I hate to admit it, but you might be right.
00:36:08What happened?
00:36:09There was another hit in a shop on Main Street.
00:36:11They robbed the shop and then went up to the owner's apartment.
00:36:13God damn it.
00:36:14Look, no injuries or fatalities.
00:36:16The owner was just shaken up, that's all.
00:36:19We've got to stop this asshole.
00:36:20I'll keep an eye on it for today.
00:36:22I need you to show face at Smith's fundraiser.
00:36:25I'm supposed to stop good police work to appease some politician?
00:36:27You're so naive.
00:36:29This is how the world works.
00:36:30I'm not naive.
00:36:32I have ethics.
00:36:33Jake, I'm your superior.
00:36:36So if you know what's good for you, you'll shut your mouth and do your job.
00:36:43I'm sorry that Jake isn't here.
00:36:45Oh, I'm not surprised.
00:36:46He works too hard.
00:36:48Weeks will go by and I won't hear from him.
00:36:51That's why I had to ambush him this weekend.
00:36:55What's he working on?
00:36:57Uh, there's been a series of robberies.
00:36:59Hot prowls, he calls them.
00:37:01Oh, no.
00:37:02No wonder he's so obsessed.
00:37:04What do you mean?
00:37:05Did he tell you about his parents?
00:37:09Well, he told me that they died.
00:37:14Someone broke into their home while they were asleep.
00:37:18My brother and his wife tried to stop them.
00:37:24Jake was the one that found them.
00:37:27Blood everywhere.
00:37:29He called 911.
00:37:31His poor parents never came back from the hospital.
00:37:37That's horrible.
00:37:39It was really tough on all of us.
00:37:41But especially Jake.
00:37:42I was so worried when he wanted to join the police force.
00:37:45It's such a dangerous job and there's a tendency to fixate.
00:37:51He's been through so much.
00:37:53Yeah.
00:37:55I'm just happy that he has you now.
00:37:57I was concerned that no one would understand him or he would avoid real relationships because
00:38:04of what happened.
00:38:08Now, what do you say we take a trip to the station and see our boy?
00:38:12Oh, uh, oh, I don't want to disturb him.
00:38:14You're his girlfriend.
00:38:15Of course he wants to see you.
00:38:17Um, you know, I've got some work I've got to take care of at the bookstore, but I can take
00:38:21you if you'd like.
00:38:22Oh, thank you, sweetie.
00:38:26Jensen.
00:38:27Could you pull up the file for me on the stolen semi-trucks, please?
00:38:31Oh, hello, Taylor.
00:38:33I'm sure you remember me from the office Christmas party last year.
00:38:36I'm Jake's Aunt Shelly.
00:38:37Of course I remember you.
00:38:39Hi.
00:38:40Aunt Shelly.
00:38:42What are you doing here?
00:38:43Oh, thought I'd come say hi on your lunch break.
00:38:45Noelle dropped me off.
00:38:47I love your girlfriend, Jakey.
00:38:51Yeah.
00:38:53Girlfriend, huh?
00:38:54You haven't met her yet?
00:38:58I haven't had the pleasure.
00:39:06Another rejection, of course.
00:39:09Hey, stranger!
00:39:11Adam!
00:39:12Hi.
00:39:12What do you think?
00:39:14Oh, yeah, they're beautiful.
00:39:17I know we've had a tough week.
00:39:19Figured you could use some cheering up.
00:39:21Thanks, Adam.
00:39:22My buddy said that you never reached out to him about the guest house.
00:39:26Oh, right.
00:39:27Yeah, um, I figured something out.
00:39:30Oh, yeah?
00:39:31Where have you been staying?
00:39:33Uh, with Jake.
00:39:36Jake?
00:39:37Your neighbor, Jake?
00:39:40Yeah, is that a problem?
00:39:42Are you serious?
00:39:43You're staying at another man's house while we're dating?
00:39:47Oh, sorry.
00:39:48Um, if I remember correctly, we're not dating.
00:39:52We're just going on dates, right?
00:39:54Noelle, see that's...
00:39:55No, no, no, you know what?
00:39:58I am done dealing with emotionally unavailable men.
00:40:02You can't give me what I want.
00:40:03And he can?
00:40:04No.
00:40:05No, but at least he's honest about it.
00:40:07Oh, I'm sorry.
00:40:28Oh, it's okay.
00:40:30All yours.
00:40:31Wait.
00:40:34I'm sorry about last night.
00:40:36It's okay.
00:40:38Really?
00:40:39Really.
00:40:40Helped me realize something, actually.
00:40:43What do you mean?
00:40:44You were right.
00:40:46I want a real relationship, and Adam was never going to give that to me, no matter how long
00:40:51I stuck around.
00:40:53You saw him today.
00:40:56Yeah, I ended things.
00:41:01How are you feeling?
00:41:03Honestly.
00:41:06Amazing.
00:41:07I can't see you.
00:41:09I can't see you.
00:41:15What a cute little star.
00:41:22Oh, hello.
00:41:24Noelle, right?
00:41:25I'm Taylor.
00:41:26Yes, yes.
00:41:27Hi, hi, Taylor.
00:41:28It's nice to meet you.
00:41:29Can I help you find anything?
00:41:33I've been wanting to read this forever.
00:41:36Oh, good choice.
00:41:39I saw Jake's Aunt Shelly at the station yesterday.
00:41:43Tell me why she called you Jake's girlfriend.
00:41:46Oh, um, maybe you should ask Jake that question.
00:41:51I did ask him, and he avoided the question.
00:41:53Kind of like you're doing right now.
00:41:54I'm not avoiding anything.
00:41:55Sorry, I don't think I feel comfortable talking about this with you.
00:42:03Your last name's Harper, right?
00:42:05How did you know that?
00:42:07I'm a police officer.
00:42:08I have resources.
00:42:09Oh, so you used taxpayer money to look into me?
00:42:13Perks of the job.
00:42:14Besides, you're moving in on one of my officers.
00:42:18I mean, it's only been a matter of weeks, and you're suddenly so friendly with his aunt
00:42:22and calling him a friend.
00:42:24Are you stalking Jake Reynolds, Noelle?
00:42:27Of course not.
00:42:28No, everything just sort of happened this way.
00:42:30Maybe you have a history of criminal activity, because I believe I received a report from
00:42:35another precinct about a Noelle Harper who was accused of embezzling from her previous
00:42:40job.
00:42:41Should I let your boss know about that?
00:42:43That's ridiculous.
00:42:44You can't just go making things up.
00:42:46Really?
00:42:48Is that your boss's office?
00:42:50Wait, why?
00:42:51Why?
00:43:00Noelle, what's wrong?
00:43:03Taylor came into the bookstore today.
00:43:05She accused me of stalking you.
00:43:08Yeah, she was acting like she was your girlfriend and that I was trying to get between you, and
00:43:11she got me fired.
00:43:15How?
00:43:16She pulled out her badge.
00:43:18She made up a story about a Noelle Harper who got in trouble for embezzling, and my boss
00:43:22believed her.
00:43:23I'll go down there, and I'll clear all this up.
00:43:25No, don't bother.
00:43:26I mean, he was looking for a reason to fire me anyways.
00:43:30I haven't heard back from any of the libraries, and I don't know.
00:43:34I think I might just have to move back home with my dad for a while.
00:43:38No, Noelle.
00:43:39You can stay here as long as you need.
00:43:44You really are a great friend, Jake.
00:43:47Friend?
00:43:49Yeah.
00:43:51Happy to help.
00:43:52Good morning.
00:44:01Morning.
00:44:03Oh, morning, Jakey.
00:44:05Good news for you lovebirds.
00:44:07I'm heading home on Friday.
00:44:08I know.
00:44:09It's devastating to you both.
00:44:10It is.
00:44:12We'll miss having you around.
00:44:13Aw, and I you, sweetheart.
00:44:15Well, thank goodness I'll see you both at the wedding soon enough.
00:44:18You're still going to come, right, darling?
00:44:22What do you say?
00:44:25I'll be there.
00:44:27Great.
00:44:28It's a date, then.
00:44:34Reynolds.
00:44:37A word.
00:44:38Don't start with me today, Officer Walters.
00:44:51Is that really a way to talk to your superior?
00:44:54Just leave me alone.
00:44:56Please.
00:44:56The robbery case file went missing from my desk.
00:44:58You wouldn't have anything to do with that, would you?
00:45:00You didn't run the prints like you said you were going to.
00:45:02Yeah, it's on my to-do list.
00:45:03Well, while you make your way very slowly through that to-do list, there's a criminal on the loose.
00:45:09If someone gets hurt, their blood is on your hands.
00:45:12Bullshit.
00:45:12Bullshit?
00:45:13You want to know what's bullshit?
00:45:15You getting Noel fired.
00:45:17I don't know what she told you, but she got herself fired.
00:45:21You abused police resources.
00:45:24I can't help Taylor.
00:45:27What is she to you anyway, hmm?
00:45:29She's my friend.
00:45:34Liar.
00:45:35You did want a relationship.
00:45:38Just not with me.
00:45:39Holy shit.
00:45:59What, is it too much?
00:46:01I was thinking about wearing this to the wedding.
00:46:04No, you look incredible.
00:46:07Bikini dance in those.
00:46:09My family's really big on dancing.
00:46:14They're never going to believe it's true love unless they see us dancing together.
00:46:18Okay, but your family's not here.
00:46:20Your Aunt Shelly's at dinner with a friend.
00:46:22I know that, but we could probably use some practice.
00:46:25Hmm.
00:46:29Just humor me.
00:46:37What's wrong?
00:46:37Nothing.
00:46:43I had a rough day at work.
00:46:45You want to talk about it?
00:46:47No.
00:46:50I don't know.
00:46:51Just dance with me.
00:46:52Why don't you?
00:46:53I don't know.
00:46:53Why don't you?
00:46:54Cause you're my home away from home, away from home, away from home, away from being alone.
00:47:02I don't know.
00:47:04Why don't you?
00:47:17Why don't you?
00:47:19Cause I did the same just for you.
00:47:25Well, why?
00:47:31Yeah.
00:47:35Really?
00:47:37Because you're right.
00:47:42I know this was a bad idea.
00:47:46Jake.
00:47:47Jake, you're a great guy.
00:47:49Like, the best.
00:47:51But you taught me not to settle for anything less than what I want.
00:47:56Right?
00:47:57And like you said, you can't give me what I want.
00:48:00Why?
00:48:01I'm sorry, I can't do this again.
00:48:03I can't keep letting other people dictate my love life.
00:48:08I think after the wedding we should take some time to burn.
00:48:12I think I need some space.
00:48:13Jakey, what's wrong?
00:48:34Trouble in paradise?
00:48:37You can say that.
00:48:38I'm sure whatever it is, you two will figure things out.
00:48:42I mean, you clearly love each other and...
00:48:44Aunt Shelley, Noelle and I aren't dating.
00:48:48What are you talking about?
00:48:49Of course you are.
00:48:51We're just pretending.
00:48:52I didn't want you to set me up, so I lied.
00:48:57No, it's just my neighbor.
00:48:59Convinced her to help me.
00:49:03But...
00:49:04I'm sorry.
00:49:06I fucked everything up.
00:49:09Look, I don't know what happened, honey, and I'm sorry if I put any pressure on you.
00:49:15But maybe there's something there.
00:49:17I mean, the connection between you two is undeniable.
00:49:20It doesn't matter.
00:49:22I can't give her what she wants.
00:49:24Jake.
00:49:26It's okay to be vulnerable with another person.
00:49:30I know how much it hurt you to lose the people you love, but that's not a reason to stop loving.
00:49:40It's too late.
00:49:41You can cancel that plus one.
00:50:07I'm told Aunt Shelley.
00:50:09What?
00:50:09You don't have to come to the wedding.
00:50:12No, Jake, you didn't have to do that.
00:50:14It's better this way.
00:50:16Pretending to be in a relationship with you is...
00:50:19confusing.
00:50:21Because I, um...
00:50:23I want...
00:50:26I want, um...
00:50:29What?
00:50:30What, Jake?
00:50:30What do you want?
00:50:32I don't know.
00:50:33Okay?
00:50:38You know what I think.
00:50:39I think you want to have your cake and eat it, too.
00:50:44I think you want everything that comes with a relationship, but you don't want a relationship.
00:50:49Jake, I know you have feelings for me.
00:50:52And if you're too scared to admit it, then yeah, maybe you're right.
00:50:56Maybe it is better this way.
00:50:57I want to...
00:50:58I want...
00:51:08Aunt Shelley, I'm so sorry.
00:51:09Stop it.
00:51:10No.
00:51:10We never should have lied to you.
00:51:12Shh.
00:51:12Look at me.
00:51:13I know for a fact my Jakey cares about you very much.
00:51:17He's just still dealing with his grief.
00:51:20The aunt in me wants you to wait for him to wake the fuck up.
00:51:24Pardon my French.
00:51:26But it's not fair for you to be collateral damage.
00:51:30You have a beautiful heart, and I want you to protect it.
00:51:36Oh, come here, sweetheart.
00:51:40Shh.
00:51:44No matter what, I'm always Aunt Shelley to you, okay?
00:51:50Oh.
00:51:57Hello, Mr. Saunders.
00:52:00Need to talk about getting my job back.
00:52:10Stand up.
00:52:13One sec.
00:52:16Stand up.
00:52:18Slowly.
00:52:20Oh, my God!
00:52:22Now don't go and try and do anything funny.
00:52:24What?
00:52:26Don't go and try anything funny.
00:52:31Sorry?
00:52:36Don't try anything funny.
00:52:40What do you want?
00:52:41I don't have a key to the safe.
00:52:43Oh, please.
00:52:44Put your hands in the air.
00:52:45Don't even work here.
00:52:46I'm no one.
00:52:47Hands up.
00:52:48Okay, okay, okay.
00:52:49I'm just gonna put my back down.
00:52:52Hurry up, baby.
00:52:53Okay, come on.
00:52:54Come on.
00:52:55Move.
00:52:56You're gonna show me where that key is.
00:52:57You could just let us all go.
00:52:58Please, you don't have to do this.
00:52:59Give me the key, or choose the hostage.
00:53:01I'm just gonna put my back down.
00:53:02I'm just gonna put my back down.
00:53:03Hurry up, baby.
00:53:04Hurry up, baby.
00:53:05Okay, come on.
00:53:06Come on, come on.
00:53:07Move.
00:53:08Move.
00:53:09Move.
00:53:10Show me where that key is.
00:53:11You could just let us all go.
00:53:12Please, you don't have to do this.
00:53:13The hostage.
00:53:22I'm gonna check it out.
00:53:25Hey, what's going on?
00:53:26Silent alarm at the bookstore on Main Street.
00:53:28You can't just run out so low.
00:53:29There's protocol.
00:53:30I need to send a unit.
00:53:31Send me.
00:53:32No.
00:53:34Reynolds.
00:53:36I order you to stand down.
00:53:38I'm going, Taylor.
00:53:39You can't stop me.
00:53:43Dispatch, this is Detective Jake Reynolds.
00:53:54Reporting to the silent alarm on Main Street.
00:53:56I've got eyes on the perch.
00:53:58He's armed and dangerous.
00:53:59Repeat, armed and dangerous.
00:54:01Copy, Detective.
00:54:02Proceed with sit-rep.
00:54:03Over.
00:54:04No civilians outside.
00:54:06Per numa is clear.
00:54:08Copy.
00:54:09Ten by for backup, Detective.
00:54:10How many civilians inside?
00:54:11Over.
00:54:12Oh, my God.
00:54:14What the fuck is she doing here?
00:54:16Detective, we've called for additional use.
00:54:19Do not proceed without backup.
00:54:22Detective.
00:54:28Please don't do this.
00:54:31Please.
00:54:32Please don't do this.
00:54:34Please drop your weapon!
00:54:37Drop the weapon.
00:54:39See, you drop it, asshole!
00:54:42Or I'm blowing her head off!
00:54:45Calm down.
00:54:47No one needs to get hurt, alright?
00:54:51You two know each other.
00:54:59Oh, well then you'll go ahead and drop the gun there, hero.
00:55:02Or your little girlfriend here dies today.
00:55:04I'm engaging the safety.
00:55:08I'm dropping the weapon.
00:55:09Kick it over!
00:55:16Whatever you want.
00:55:22Okay?
00:55:24No one needs to get hurt, alright?
00:55:25Keep your hands up!
00:55:26Keep your hands up!
00:55:28I get it.
00:55:30You didn't think we'd be on the scene this quick.
00:55:31You're desperate.
00:55:34Come on, no.
00:55:34You stay back!
00:55:35Just let her go.
00:55:37You and I can figure this out together, alright?
00:55:39You don't know anything about me.
00:55:41Or what I want.
00:55:44You see, she's my ticket out of here.
00:55:48Aren't you?
00:55:49Aren't you, sweetheart?
00:55:50And you...
00:55:53I don't need you.
00:55:57I don't need you.
00:55:59You asshole!
00:56:22You think you can take whatever you want?
00:56:25Jake, it doesn't matter if you hurt people!
00:56:31Jake, stop!
00:56:32Wait!
00:56:33It's okay!
00:56:34It's okay!
00:56:35He's down!
00:56:36It's okay!
00:56:38It's okay!
00:56:51It's okay!
00:56:52Jake...
00:56:58Noah!
00:57:02Noah!
00:57:06Noah!
00:57:08Noah!
00:57:10Noah!
00:57:12Noah!
00:57:14Noelle!
00:57:17Noelle!
00:57:20Noelle.
00:57:23Noelle, can you hear me?
00:57:41Get off me!
00:57:43If you're under arrest, you have the right to remain silent.
00:57:46Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.
00:57:49You have the right to an attorney.
00:57:51Get off me!
00:57:58Rivers run dry, dust sprays in the air.
00:58:06To dark days, do you have a tear to spear?
00:58:11Make a promise
00:58:17Noelle Harper, possible head injury.
00:58:19Please be careful with her.
00:58:21Just breathe in through this debate.
00:58:29Start a...
00:58:32Come on, start a riot.
00:58:35When they love you, do much know is fame, fake or even hate.
00:58:45Don't be scared when the weight paralyzes your state at the gate.
00:58:50Jake?
00:58:51No.
00:58:52It's me.
00:58:53Adam.
00:58:54What are you doing here?
00:58:55When I heard what happened, I rushed right over.
00:58:58How are you feeling?
00:58:59Um...
00:59:00My head hurts.
00:59:01Oh my God, wait what?
00:59:02You're lucky the bullet only grazed you and the concussion's mild.
00:59:05You'll be alright soon.
00:59:06You scared me, baby.
00:59:07Adam, I...
00:59:08No, hey.
00:59:09It's okay.
00:59:10I'm here.
00:59:11I'm never leaving you again.
00:59:12Adam, no, this doesn't change things.
00:59:13What are you talking about?
00:59:14Of course it does.
00:59:15That prick neighbor of yours almost got you killed.
00:59:16Jake saved me.
00:59:17Well, when are you gonna understand?
00:59:18He doesn't care about you.
00:59:19Not like I do.
00:59:20He's a cop.
00:59:21You're just doing his job.
00:59:22I don't know.
00:59:23You're just doing his job.
00:59:24You're just doing his job.
00:59:25What?
00:59:26Oh my God.
00:59:27Oh my God.
00:59:28Wait, what?
00:59:29You're lucky the bullet only grazed you.
00:59:30And the concussion's mild.
00:59:31You'll be alright soon.
00:59:32You scared me, baby.
00:59:33Adam, I...
00:59:34No, hey.
00:59:35It's okay.
00:59:36I'm here.
00:59:37I'm never leaving you again.
00:59:38Adam, no, this doesn't change things.
00:59:39What are you talking about?
00:59:40Of course it does.
00:59:41That prick neighbor of yours almost got you killed.
00:59:43Jake saved me.
00:59:45Not very well either.
00:59:51Forget about him.
00:59:53I want to take care of you.
00:59:56I want you to be my girlfriend.
01:00:02I spent a whole year hoping you'd say those words.
01:00:07So?
01:00:08Is that a yes?
01:00:09I told you we were done, Adam.
01:00:12And since you've never respected me, I can't say that I'm surprised you didn't hear me the first time.
01:00:16Noelle...
01:00:17No, it's over, Adam.
01:00:19Forever.
01:00:20Just, never being in the air.
01:00:23I'm still wearing hands for you.
01:00:28You sell me.
01:00:30Nothing means something with you.
01:00:36Really.
01:00:37Jakey.
01:00:38Jakey.
01:00:39Oh my goodness, your message scared me half to death.
01:00:42You okay?
01:00:44I'm fine.
01:00:46You didn't have to come.
01:00:47Of course I did.
01:00:49How's Noel?
01:00:52I'm not sure.
01:00:54I haven't seen her since the ambulance took her to the hospital last night.
01:00:58Jake, you haven't gone to see her?
01:01:02I can't go back to the hospital again.
01:01:05I just can't.
01:01:06Oh, you can.
01:01:07And you will.
01:01:10I almost lost her.
01:01:13I can't go through that again.
01:01:15I know you're scared, but if you don't go, you will lose her.
01:01:20And pushing Noel away will not bring your parents back.
01:01:26Excuse me.
01:01:27Reynolds?
01:01:28Can I speak with you?
01:01:29How fucking dare you?
01:01:46You really want to do this right now?
01:01:48Should I just fire you instead?
01:01:49Fire me?
01:01:51Are you kidding?
01:01:51You broke rank.
01:01:54You disobeyed orders.
01:01:55You ran into that bookstore with no plan and no backup.
01:01:59Tell me why I shouldn't tell all this to the chief right now and end your career.
01:02:01Don't bother.
01:02:05I quit.
01:02:10You really think you're going to get a job at any other station after I report you?
01:02:14What if I report you?
01:02:15What if I tell the chief that not only did you abuse police resources by letting your personal
01:02:21feelings about Noel cloud your judgment, you also knowingly hindered an ongoing investigation
01:02:26by telling an officer to stand down.
01:02:30Obstruction of justice is a very serious crime, Officer Walters.
01:02:34You're bluffing.
01:02:36You would never do that.
01:02:37You want to bet?
01:02:43That's what I thought.
01:02:46Excuse me.
01:02:56Knock, knock.
01:02:58It's chilly.
01:02:59How did you know I was here?
01:03:01Jake told me.
01:03:04Um, where is he?
01:03:05He's working.
01:03:09Right, right.
01:03:11Of course.
01:03:12I'm sorry.
01:03:13Hospitals are hard for him.
01:03:15But I come with good news.
01:03:17What is it?
01:03:18I spoke with a friend of mine and his school is hiring.
01:03:22They need a researcher for their librarian.
01:03:25I would love to help you get your foot in the door.
01:03:27Yes, no, no, I want it.
01:03:29I was hoping you'd say that.
01:03:31You have an interview on Monday.
01:03:32Aunt Shelley, I don't know how to thank you.
01:03:35Of course.
01:03:37You're family.
01:03:45Aunt Shelley, can I speak with Noel Lung for a moment?
01:03:51How are you feeling?
01:03:58Okay.
01:04:01Concussed.
01:04:02Well, I got you something.
01:04:07But...
01:04:07Maybe you should hold off to the headache where it's left?
01:04:12Mm.
01:04:13Nah.
01:04:13Oh, my God.
01:04:27How did you...
01:04:28My parents' library.
01:04:31Aunt Shelley wasn't kidding.
01:04:33I forgot how extensive it was.
01:04:34Seriously, it takes up a whole storage unit.
01:04:36You didn't have to.
01:04:43Yes, I did.
01:04:48Noel, I've...
01:04:49I've avoided my feelings.
01:04:54All my feelings.
01:04:55For...
01:04:56A very long time.
01:05:03When my parents died, I...
01:05:05I didn't know what I wanted.
01:05:12I just knew I didn't want to feel that pain again.
01:05:15I told myself I would do anything not to feel it.
01:05:17But last night...
01:05:23When I carried you out of that building...
01:05:26I felt that pain.
01:05:29Loving someone means living with the risk of losing them.
01:05:33And that scares the shit out of me.
01:05:41But so does the idea of living without you.
01:05:42I want to be with you, Noel.
01:05:50I love you.
01:05:54I'm in love with you.
01:06:03So what do you say?
01:06:07Do you want to be my girlfriend?
01:06:10Oh, my God.
01:06:11I have two offers in one day.
01:06:13I'm sure I tried getting concussed sooner.
01:06:17Two.
01:06:20Was that it me?
01:06:21Mm-hmm.
01:06:26What did you say to him?
01:06:30I told him to leave me alone.
01:06:33Forever.
01:06:37And what did you say to me?
01:06:38I need to think about it.
01:06:45Yeah, that's fine.
01:06:46Take your time.
01:06:49Okay, let's do it.
01:06:52Really?
01:06:53Of course, you idiot.
01:06:54I love you, too, by the way.
01:07:13I love you, too, by the way.
01:07:13I knew it.
01:07:14So I guess you are a relationship guy after all, huh?
01:07:21Oh, Taylor's going to be pissed.
01:07:26I quit this morning.
01:07:31What?
01:07:31No, Jake, I don't want you to have to choose between...
01:07:34I'm not.
01:07:37I became a cop because I wanted to help people.
01:07:41To protect and to serve.
01:07:45But all that department cared about was meeting quota and glad-handing donors.
01:07:49I mean, they didn't give a shit about good police work.
01:07:51So I'm going to become a private investigator.
01:08:00Not everything's about you, you know?
01:08:02Hey.
01:08:05Okay, all right.
01:08:05Well, maybe it was a little bit about you.
01:08:09Being a PI is just safer.
01:08:11And I want to be around for a long time for the people I love.
01:08:21I'm ready to go home now.
01:08:39I already am.
01:08:51Just remember
01:08:53There will come a day when it all works out
01:08:59And you'll let me know
01:09:01Howdy, neighbor.
01:09:02Go and find a way if you hold on now
01:09:06And remember
01:09:08The theory wears up from here
01:09:12Gotcha, smoker.
01:09:19Thanks.
01:09:20I showered.
01:09:21Oh, so those pipes are working well, huh?
01:09:24Yeah, better than ever.
01:09:27See you after work?
01:09:28Yeah.
01:09:29Swing by and make burgers.
01:09:31Oh, yum.
01:09:32See, there are perks to dating a guy next door.
01:09:37Unless we break up.
01:09:39Then it'll get real awkward.
01:09:41You'll have to move out.
01:09:42Ah, see, the thing about that is
01:09:44I was counting it first.
01:09:47I'm not leaving.
01:09:48I'm not leaving.
01:09:48Well, then, I guess we should never break up.
01:09:56Deal.
01:09:58Deal.
01:09:59So we'll find a way if you hold on now
01:10:02And remember
01:10:03And it's the only way you'll never be the only way is up from here
01:10:08Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:10:13Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
