No, they´d feel good maybe,
but you´d feel better.

:42:05
I'd feel clean and calm.
:42:08
That´s what you´re looking for.
You wanna get ready to start again,
that´d be good foryou.

:42:13
Great, even.
:42:16
You´d give that big fi nal "good luck
and goodbye" to your all-time top five
and just move on down the road.

:42:24
Good luck. Goodbye.
:42:28
Thanks, Boss.
:42:31
Penny is as beautiful as she was in high
school and really grown into herself.

:42:35
She reviews movies for a living,
which is unassailably cool...

:42:38
even ifshe does make these little notes
with this little flashlight pen.

:42:42
We have a good time,
and we hate the same actors,
and everything´s going great.

:42:47
She tells me about her life.
l tell her about mine.

:42:50
We both get it.
We both relate.

:42:52
And then, with no real explanation,
l just launch into it.

:42:57
I tell her about how Laura
wanted to sleep with lan and not me...

:42:59
Charlie wanted to sleep with Marco
and not me...

:43:01
Alison Ashmore wanted Kevin Bannister
and not me.

:43:04
And you, you wanted to... you wanted
to have sex with Chris Thompson...

:43:07
and not me.
:43:09
And I was helping...
hoping you could help me understand
why this keeps happening...

:43:12
why, you know, I'm doomed to be left,
doomed to be rejected.

:43:16
Do you understand?
:43:19
Well, Rob, uh, I was crazy about you.
:43:23
I wanted to sleep with you one day,
but not when I was 1 6.

:43:27
You know, when you broke up with me...
:43:30
you broke up with me
because I was, I was...

:43:33
to use your charming expression,
tight...

:43:36
I cried and I cried and I hated you...
:43:38
and when that little shit bag
asked me out and I was too tired
to fi ght him off...

:43:41
it wasn´t rape, because I said okay,
but it wasn´t far off.

:43:44
You know I couldn´t have sex until after
college because I hated it so much?

:43:48
That´s when you´re supposed
to have sex, Rob... in college!

:43:52
And now you want to have
a little chat about rejection.

:43:55
Well, fuckyou, Rob.
