Little White Lies (1)

Are your parents okay with that? What, studying? They're not studying.
Sure they are.
See? Their books are open.
Hey, what's up? Oh, they're studying.
With a great amount of enthusiasm, I see.
Where are you going? To study.
Don't worry, Dad.
We don't study like they do or as much as they do.
Aren't you gonna tell your dad what you did at school today? I will after dinner.
What? You know, if we studied as much as Cecilia and Martin, I bet we could make straight A's.
I already make straight A's.
I've decided to come out there.
You never know about due dates and first babies.
But if you come, then all my relatives are gonna want to come and I'm not really up for entertaining cousins I haven't seen since I was three.
Okay, okay, so I'm gonna keep calling, you know.
I'm not going to miss out on the birth of my first grandchild.
Love you Mom.
I love you, too, and tell Mary To call you, I know.
Bye.
Couldn't talk 'em into it, huh? You look worried.
You're not worried about Mary, are you? No, not so much Mary as Martin.
Unless he's pregnant, I refuse to worry about him.
Yeah.
Martin's pregnant? Not yet Great, now we can do my English report, my take-home math test and my world history homework.
Don't worry.
I'm not staying.
I just brought you dinner.
Hey, if you're not working tonight, maybe we could go the movies.
My treat.
I can't, I've got plans.
That's the third time she refused to hang out with me.
Where is she going? What plans? Is there a new guy, new friend? Something with her father? Something with work? I mean, you're working and she's not.
Kevin, hello?! Say something.
You don't have to retake the class.
You passed.
You're choosing to retake it.
But I don't understand it.
I just got by.
You can retake it in the fall.
Please, just take the jobs Hank lined up for us; go to Glenoak for the summer.
We need to be together, we need to be around family.
Don't rush me, okay, Matt? We just got back together.
Right, we just got back together and you're already okay with being apart.
I love you.
And I love you.
I've missed you.
And I've missed you, too, but Look, if you want me to stay No, I want you to go.
I want to retake this class and I want to do it now so I don't have it hanging over my head, and truthfully, Matt, I don't want the pressure of school and us this summer, so please go.
I'll go, but I think it's a mistake.
7th Heaven When I see their happy faces Smiling back at me 7th Heaven I know there's no greater feeling Than the love of family Where can you go When the world don't treat you right? The answer is home That's the one place that you'll find 7th Heaven Mmm, 7th Heaven 7th Heaven.
(barks) I'm on my way to the church.
I have to prepare for the end-of-the-month budget meeting.
We're cleaning the kitchen.
Oh.
It's fun.
Well, now that you're finished, why don't you go upstairs and see if Ruthie can clean you? We can clean ourselves.
Yeah, we're not babies.
Oh, your brothers are attempting to clean themselves up this morning.
So help them without making them feel helped? Got it.
Hey, Ruthie, I'm sorry, I got stuck on a phone call last night.
Did you need to talk to me about something? I do, but we can talk later.
What's going on? I don't know.
So, where-where are you off to? Uh, school.
Will you be seeing Cecilia at school? Yeah.
What's wrong with you? I've just noticed how much time you and Cecilia are spending together.
She's my girlfriend.
Okay, whatever.
Um I have baseball practice after school, and, uh, I'll be home after that.
See ya.
Yeah.
I just have this feeling that Martin and Cecilia's relationship is headed in a direction that neither of them is prepared for.
In English? I think they're gonna have sex.
(footfalls) The boys are mostly clean, and I think I'll just Bye.
Doesn't it bother you that your partner is keeping secrets from you? She's not keeping secrets from me.
Mm, so you know what she's doing? Lucy, really, leave it alone.
I have thought this through.
It's the right thing for me to do.
It's what I what to do.
It might be what I was born to do.
You think I'm nuts.
No, actually, I think this is about the sanest thing you've ever done.
Thanks.
I need all the support I can get.
Hello.
I should get going.
I-I didn't say anything.
Good, but I do need your help.
Not with Roxanne, with Jeffrey.
Jeffrey needs a tutor.
I know the perfect person.
What'd your parents say? Were they upset? You didn't tell them.
I'll tell them tonight.
You'd better tell them before Maria just shows up.
Probably.
Then again, once she's there, she's there.
Once they get to know her, they'll love her.
You don't even know Maria.
What's to know? I repeat, what's to know? We better get to class.
Why are you in such a good mood? Tonight is the night for me and Pam.
I think she's ready.
I know I'm ready.
Ready for? But you barely know her.
She loves me and I love her I think.
We're ready.
Pam's never had a boyfriend before.
I'm not forcing her.
We talked about it.
We both want to do it.
You both talked about it, but who brought up the subject? We can't just make out at my parents' house forever.
Okay, I can't just make out at my parents' house forever.
What's your problem? You want to be the only guy on the team doing it? Oh, please, Cecilia's a senior.
You guys are all over each other.
It's obvious.
Actually, you're a bit of a legend; not many sophomores are sleeping with seniors.
Mac Yeah? Cecilia and I are not doing what you think we're doing.
Wait.
You're serious? Really? (phone rings) Hello.
WOMAN: Carlos Rivera? Yes.
Your wife asked me to call you.
She's at the hospital, but Heather.
Hello, Matt.
PILOT: Maintenance has located the problem and they have assured me that we should be pushing back from the gate in about 45 minutes.
So, thanks for your patience.
I can't believe I, I ran into you here, of all places.
I know, it's weird.
But good.
Very good.
I though about calling you so many times.
I've thought about calling you, too.
Um, where's Sarah? She has to stay in New York this summer.
She has to repeat a class.
That's too bad.
It's difficult to be away from someone you love.
Oh, yeah, yeah of course, very difficult.
Good marriages aren't easy to come by.
No, they aren't, and Sarah and I have a great marriage-- just great.
I mean, I love being married.
Marriage is such a great thing.
What about you? Great.
Happy.
Couldn't be happier.
I love being married.
Yeah.
Nuts? Carlos? Sarah, what are you doing here? I work here.
What are you doing here? Is Mary here? So you're not going back to Glenoak with Matt? I wanted to retake a class which is clearly not important, if Mary is here to have the baby.
Is she here? What are you doing here? Well, I can't find her.
I've been to emergency and no one seems to know where she is.
What? Evidently, she thought she was in labor and she's not, and now I can't find her.
Do you want me to help you look for her? Oh, you can't.
She doesn't want anyone from either family helping out with anything.
So I'll help you-- she'll never know.
Let's just find her.
Are you serious? Very.
There's a test involved, isn't there? I'm taking it this afternoon.
Well, good luck.
Have you told Kevin? I don't really have anything to tell him yet.
Well, as soon as you know something, tell him.
I will, I will.
Come on, Pam and Cecilia are waiting.
Why is everyone staring at me? Oh, I told all of them that you've never done it with Cecilia before.
You what? I have to say that a lot of the guys were disappointed, but when I told them that you were a virgin, they were more understanding.
Are you looking for Kevin? Actually, I was looking for Roxanne.
You just missed her.
Is there something I can do for you? Thanks, but no.
Well, if it's important I think I know where you can find her.
I overheard Roxanne talking to Captain Michaels.
She mentioned she was taking a test later today, and the only test I know about is the detective's test.
They only give that twice a year.
Detective's test? She must be going for a promotion.
So, uh, we'll see you tonight? Dinner and then well, who knows.
Okay, what's with you and Mac? Nothing.
Try again.
Mac just said something to the guys and never mind.
What did he say? It's a long story, and I really don't want you to get upset.
Why would I get upset? Did Mac say something about me? He said something about us, which was a lie and then he told the truth and that was worse.
What are you talking about? Promise not to get upset? No.
(sighs) People in school and the guys on the team, including Mac, assumed that we were together.
We are together.
Not that kind of together-- together, together.
Everyone in school thinks that we're, you know, doing it, or at least they did until Mac told the team we weren't.
Why would you talk about something so personal with Mac? I didn't.
You did.
No, Mac talked to me.
And you talked back, and now people are talking about what we do or don't do, and this conversation is making me very uncomfortable and upset.
Don't get angry with me, I didn't do anything.
Apparently, that's the problem.
Why does it have to be a problem? I don't think it's a problem.
At least it wasn't a problem until you made it a problem.
Is there a woman looking for me? Yeah, she's looking for you and every guy in this place is lookin' for her, I mean at her.
She's, uh, she's right over there.
I like her.
That's the tutor? I like her! Yeah, we heard you the first time.
Wait here.
Hi, I'm You're late, that's what you are.
I have two jobs-- I don't have time to sit around all day waiting for you to show up.
Chandler.
I'm Chandler.
I assumed.
Well, you know what they say when you assume-- you make an ass out of you and me.
How old are you? How old is that line? I was just about to ask you the same question.
I'm 21, and you are? Twenty-five.
And I get it.
Look, you're-you're attractive Okay, okay, you're very attractive and I'm sure under different circumstances we could have fun together.
And it's sweet of Reverend Camden to try and find me a date, or find someone for me to date, but, uh I'm really just looking for somebody to help Jeffrey with his, uh You know what, Chandler, why don't you tell Reverend Camden thanks, but no thanks.
She's leaving? Why is she leaving? What did you do? What did you do? (sighs) (doorbell rings) Hi, Kate.
Annie, it's so good to see you outside the school.
(chuckles): Yeah.
You know, Ruthie's doing so well with her Spanish.
I'm so pleased at her progress.
Oh.
So, this is Maria.
From Mexico City? The foreign exchange student? Hola.
Welcome.
Gracias.
Oh Come in.
Why don't you wait for us in the living room.
Right there.
Now I just have a few forms for you and the reverend to fill out.
You know, it is so sweet of you to help the school and the program.
I-I could believe it when Ruthie told me.
Then again, I could because that's just the kind of people you are.
Oh Help the school? Certainly, this helps the school.
I mean, hosting Maria for the rest of her stay in the U.
S.
Well, it may even help the world.
What did you say to Kendal? She called; she's very upset.
I didn't ask you to get me a date.
I asked you to get me a tutor.
Quit trying to help me and just help me.
Kendal was valedictorian of her graduating class.
She graduated a year early.
She's got a 5.
0 grade point average.
She's been published.
She's a Rhodes scholarship finalist.
And she's really good with children.
I liked her.
So this wasn't one of your lame fix-ups? (sighs) I-I lied, and I have to tell you the truth.
Can this wait? No.
I'm-I'm not happily married.
I'm married, but it hasn't been exactly happy.
Sarah and I just recently got back together after a long separation.
Now who knows.
Being married and being in medical school is harder than I ever imagined.
I don't know if we'll make it or if I'll get through school.
Anyway, I just couldn't have you think that I was in this perfect marriage.
I've never lied to you, and I don't want to start now.
That's okay.
I lied to you, too.
You're having problems with your husband? Not anymore.
We got a divorce three months ago.
I'm going back to Glenoak to start over.
There's a sweet girl from Mexico City and your Spanish teacher in the living room, both under the impression that we're involved in the school's foreign exchange program.
See ya.
I can explain.
Good.
Maria was with another host family from our school, the Jenkins.
Anyway, there was this family emergency, and Mr.
and Mrs.
Jenkins had to go back east or something.
They couldn't take Maria with them.
They had to drop out of the program, and Maria was left without a family.
So our Spanish teacher asked if anyone from class could volunteer to finish out Maria's stay.
No one raised their hand, and she looked so sad, so I raised my hand.
Without talking to us? Well, I was going to talk to you.
I was just so sure you wouldn't mind, I kind of told everyone I did talk to you.
And then I ran out of time, and Ah.
I'm sorry.
I just didn't want them to send Maria home.
So why didn't you tell us? What did you think we'd object to? Well, since we're hosting Maria, her family can host me in Mexico when I start school next year.
I can go to school in Mexico.
Cool, huh? I've always wanted to go to Mexico.
(laughs) Uh (stammers) Does that mean yes or no? Uh (sighs) Found her.
Yeah, she's home.
Got tired of waiting for me and left.
Well, that's good, right? I mean, you found her-- she's safe, she's home.
You know, I don't think people understand how hard pregnancy is on the man.
On my way home, she wants me to stop by John's and get her a pizza with everything on it.
But not the John's uptown, no, no.
The one near Broadway.
All the way across town, and it's raining? Good luck.
Hey.
So, who's that girl downstairs? Uh, that's the newest member of the family.
It's a long story, but, uh basically, her name is Maria, she's a foreign exchange student from Mexico, she's in Ruthie's class.
Oh.
Okay.
Is something wrong? I had a bad day.
I think we need to talk.
About? Well, Annie tells me you have a date with Cecilia tonight.
You want to talk about Cecilia? Well, I want to talk to you about you and Cecilia.
Feelings you may have for Cecilia, uh, urges.
(laughs): Urges? (laughs) Martin, I'm a man.
I know what it's like to be in love.
Or to think you're in love.
Yeah? You and Cecilia seem very close lately.
She's my girlfriend.
Yeah.
You seem a little too close.
Reverend Camden.
Yes? I know where babies come from, and they don't come from kissing on the couch.
Ah, okay.
Have you ever thought about more than just kissing? Have you? I'm married.
Well, when you were my age you must have had a girlfriend.
When you were my age, did you ever have urges? Probably, yeah.
Yeah, I-I guess.
But we're not talking about me, we're talking about you.
So when you were my age you thought about doing more than kissing with your girlfriend? Well Did you ever act on those feelings? Did you do more than kiss? Or did you restrain yourself, realizing you weren't ready for more intense physical contact? Did you realize you were actually quite happy to take things slowly? I see your point.
Good.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm a little tired of talking to people about what Cecilia and I do and don't do.
People? What-What what people? There are some very tough anti-stalking laws in California.
I'm not stalking.
I'm apologizing.
Well? Well what? Apologize for being a pompous jerk.
I think you meant a pompous, uh Hey, I don't use language like that.
Look, I'm not pompous.
(gasps): Oh, let's see, you were arrogant, patronizing, condescending and presumptuous.
In other words, you were pompous.
Hm, and Reverend Camden said you were intelligent.
Yeah.
Don't let the miniskirt fool you.
Oh, wait, it did fool you.
Maybe I should have worn my smart clothes.
Ah, I guess I deserve this.
(chuckles): Look I just needed some help.
You need a lot of help.
But I guess you're referring to Jeffrey.
You know what? I came here to apologize, and I did.
So why don't we quit while we're ahead.
I can find someone else.
Thanks.
Oh, and, uh, once again, sorry.
Really? Well, I guess Jeffrey shouldn't have to suffer just because you're a pompous you know.
Thanks, I think.
Bring him by here at 6:00.
I get off from work then and I have a couple hours free.
Okay.
See you at 6:00.
Yeah.
Joe at the station told me you stopped by.
And it's a good thing I did.
I know what Roxanne is up to and when you find out, you're going to be very upset.
I told you to leave it alone.
She's trying to get promoted.
She took the detective's test today.
So? You've been a police officer a lot longer than she has.
If anyone deserves to be promoted, it's you, not her.
I've been a police officer longer, but we've both been working in Glenoak the same amount of time.
Why aren't you upset? She's trying to run right over you.
And after everything you've done for her, I've done for her I don't care if she wants to be a detective.
I mean, I wish she would have told me, but if she didn't, she must've had a good reason.
It's not fair! Yes, it is.
Don't you want to be a detective? Don't you want to wear a suit, make more money and Why don't you want that? One, I like being a beat cop.
I like working on the streets.
I figure, eventually, I'll move up, but when I'm ready.
And two, we, I don't need the money.
Maybe Roxanne does.
Maybe she's just more ambitious than I am.
It's doesn't matter.
And really, until she tells me about this detective stuff, I'm going to forget we had this conversation.
I need to talk to you about Mac.
Me and Mac and you.
And me? You and Martin.
PILOT (over P.
A.
): Well, folks, in typical L.
A.
fashion, we've run into a bit of a traffic jam.
Our gate isn't ready, so, uh, I'm gonna, I'm gonna shut down the engines and everyone should remain seated with their seatbelts fastened.
As soon as our gate opens up, we'll park the aircraft, turn off the seatbelt sign, and you'll be free to move about the cabin.
Today was the best day I've had in a long time.
I'm so glad I ran into you.
I forgot how easy things could be between two people.
I want to see you.
I want to see you.
What about tonight? I can't.
I mean, we shouldn't.
You're married.
Just as friends.
We could see each other just as friends.
Okay.
Friends.
Friends.
Dad.
You're here.
Yeah.
(chuckles) They said your flight was delayed.
But why didn't you call? I would have picked you up.
Uh, took a cab.
Well Welcome home.
So where is everybody? Oh, don't worry, they'll all show up when they start smelling dinner.
Yeah, your mother made your favorite: turkey, all the trimmings.
It's like Thanksgiving in May.
(sighs) You okay? I'm-I'm great.
But I have plans for dinner.
You just flew in.
What plans? Dinner plans.
With? Does it matter? Well, now it does, 'cause you're trying not to tell me.
Heather.
"Heather"? What, your ex-girlfriend? That Heather? Yeah, I ran into her on the plane, and we decided it would be fun to have dinner together, you know, to catch up.
So you were stuck on a plane most of the day with Heather and you didn't have time to catch up with her? Look, it's just dinner between friends.
How's Sarah? I don't need her permission to have dinner with Heather.
Right, right, have a good time.
Yeah.
Right.
So you're going to tell Sarah? I mean, if it's just dinner between friends, you'll tell your wife, right? Where's Ruthie? Downstairs.
Okay.
We have math class together.
Yeah.
Maybe you could help me with my homework some night.
Ruthie is actually better in math than me.
I'd rather you help me.
You're nice.
So's Ruthie.
Hey, you're here.
So everything's cool.
Mom and Dad are going to let Maria stay.
Isn't that great? Great.
Peter was just saying that he'd help me with my math homework.
Excellent.
I want us all to be friends.
Come on.
I'm not going to say it.
Say what? I'm not going to say, let's talk.
Why? Because I don't want to talk about it.
Talk about what? What you want to talk about.
The key to a successful marriage is communication.
No.
The key to a successful marriage is acceptance.
I'm sorry.
I can't accept that you don't want to move ahead at work.
I I don't understand.
Make me understand.
I shouldn't have to.
You should know me well enough to know what's important to me.
Your career isn't important to you? My career wasn't important to you until you found out Roxanne wanted a promotion.
I'm going out alone.
So you can be away from me? I'll be back.
(sighs) (sighs) Where have you been? I wanted to have fresh green beans, not frozen.
Matt loves fresh beans.
Hopefully, they'll keep.
Where you going? Out to have lots of sex with Cecilia.
We had a little talk.
Clearly.
You're late.
I almost didn't come.
Why? We both know that this isn't just dinner.
But you came.
So, um, what are we doing? I don't know.
Should we stay? I don't know, but I do know that I don't want to go.
So stay.
(chuckles) Kevin won't be joining us for dinner.
Why? Do you really want to know? No.
(phone ringing) Will someone get the phone? I got it.
Hello.
Hold on, I'll find out.
Where's Matt? He's, uh, out.
What do you mean he's out? Who's he out with? Heather.
Matt's out with some girl named Heather.
Who's on the phone? Sorry, who's this? It's Sarah, Matt's wife.
It's Sarah.
(sighs) I don't understand why they didn't want us to pick 'em up.
Cecilia was pretty insistent that they meet us here.
There they are.
Wish me luck.
Hey, what kept you guys? We missed the movie.
Oh, you're going to be missing a whole lot more than a movie tonight.
We've been talking.
About? What the? Cecilia, what's going on? What's going on is that I'm breaking up with you.
I don't know if Mac just made up what he told Pam or if it's something you two cooked up together, but what I do know is that I don't want to be around him.
Either you have bad taste in friends or you just have bad taste.
And, Mac, I may have been desperate when we met, but I will never be desperate enough to go out with you ever again.
Start talking.
I may have told a little white lie to Pam about you and Cecilia in my zest to get her to commit to taking our relationship to the next step.
I told Pam that you were sleeping with Cecilia so she would be more comfortable with the idea of sleeping with me.
But you knew that was a lie.
Yeah.
And you said it anyway? Yeah.
I think he's bored in school, not challenged enough.
I think he's gifted.
But his grades A lot of gifted kids make bad grades.
Well, what can I do? Well, I'll work with him this summer, try to come up with a game plan for everyone-- you, Jeffrey, the school something that will benefit everyone when he goes back to school next year.
Thanks.
Really, I feel very lucky to have found you.
You are lucky.
(chuckles) Jeffrey's a great kid.
I like him.
Hey I have an idea.
Um why don't you join us for dinner tonight? I can't.
Oh, right, uh, it'd be inappropriate.
Sorry.
No, no, I have a date, actually.
Chandler, Jeffrey, this is my boyfriend Sean.
Hi.
(clears throat) We should get going, huh? I'll see you tomorrow after church.
You like her.
No, I don't.
Liar.
Kendall and Chandler sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
(Chandler groans, Jeffrey laughs) (phone rings) Hello? SIMON (over phone): Guess who.
Simon? Good guess.
Wow.
Hi.
Hi yourself.
Are you okay? You sound kind of funny.
It must be the cell phone.
I'm great.
So So? You remember when I spoke to you last week? Yeah.
There's something I forgot to tell you.
I'm coming home.
For good? Just for the summer.
Oh.
Look, I'm gonna get right to the point.
You know I know about you and Martin, right? Yeah.
Well, I'm coming home this summer to my home, a home which your new boyfriend also calls home.
I just don't want there to be any weirdness between us when you're at the house or when you're with Martin.
Okay, I've accepted that you moved on.
I'm happy for you.
Thanks.
Are you sure you're okay? I am.
So when are you coming home? Tomorrow I'm driving down.
I guess I'll see you around.
Yeah, you will.
Okay.
Simon? He's coming home.
Hello? Yeah, my name is Carlos Rivera and my wife Mary is having a baby.
Yeah, yeah, it's the same Mary Camden Rivera that was there earlier today.
No, no, this, this time she's really in labor.
C-Contractions? I-I don't know.
No, I-I know what a contraction is.
I, I, I just don't know how far apart they are.
Look, she's in a lot of pain.
Yes, I am aware that childbirth is painful, but I'm worried.
Some-Something seems off.
W-Why didn't you say that in the first place? Yes, no, thanks.
(phone rings) WOMAN (over phone): What's your emergency? My wife-- she's pregnant, she's having a baby.
Can you please hurry?
