:15:00
It's just not.
:15:17
You know what
the entire student body...

:15:19
is talking about this morning?
:15:23
The Krispy Kreme truck
that got in a wreck
on Eighth Avenue.

:15:27
There's donuts
everywhere.

:15:29
It's a total free-for-all.
:15:30
Between the excitement
and the sugar buzz,
everyone's pretty much...

:15:34
forgotten everything
that happened
before 8:00 this morning.

:15:44
It could have been worse.
:15:45
Don't worry, it will be.
:15:46
It always starts the same.
:15:48
I mean, she starts out
hopeful, and then
when the perfect man...

:15:51
doesn't come around
in two weeks,
she gets desperate...

:15:53
and hooks up with some loser.
:15:55
Some guy who's not even
good enough to mop her floors.

:15:57
And then,
when it doesn't work out,
because it never works out...

:16:00
we pack up and move again,
and there's nothing
I can do about it.

:16:03
I can't even run away
because that's what
she does.

:16:05
I thought you said
you didn't mind
all the moving around.

:16:07
I didn't. I mean, I don't.
I just got here.

:16:17
The River Bistro.
:16:19
What are we doing here?
:16:20
I can't even afford to pee
in a place like this.

:16:23
Much less actually eat here.
:16:24
Relax,
it's under control.

:16:26
My uncle's the owner.
:16:29
Him?
:16:32
You've got to be kidding.
No, him.

:16:34
No, you didn't do that,
did you?

:16:37
Well, how long
did you keep her waiting?

:16:40
What? An hour?
:16:43
Of course she's mad.
:16:44
What? Hold on.
:16:46
This is Holly.
Hi.

:16:48
Hi, Holly.
Nice to meet you.

:16:49
Why wouldn't she be mad?
:16:51
Well, there's only one thing
you can do: Flowers.

:16:55
And you can't go cheap,
either. Nope.

:16:59
A dozen, long-stemmed.
