- Look how cute you were.
- Hmm, I know.
(mouth full)
Hey, I'm cute now too.
Gorgeous.
Oh, mm.
Hmm.
You know, one day I might
go out there and audition,
instead of just teaching.
Go to L.A.
Mm.
And do what?
(mimicking)
"Mm? And do what?"
You know what I mean.
Audition to become a dancer.
Get on TV, I don't know.
Audition.
How about you
audition for me?

I get that we don't know where
this is gonna go for me.
And I know that's scary,
but I have to find out.
And I thought of all people
you would understand that.
Understand what?
That this house is not
good enough for you?
That I'm not good enough?
That's not it
and you know it!
Why do you need
more than this?
Why can't you just
be happy with this?
Because I don't wanna
spend the rest of my life
regretting that
I never even tried.
Ben, please come with me.
Please come with me.
You know what, fine.
You wanna go?
Then go.
Go parade yourself in
front of a bunch of suits
hoping that they think
you're hot enough
to be some slutty background
dancer or something.
Stop it!
Why are you doing this?
Okay look, I am done.
But just you realize,
when you come back here,
I won't be waiting
when you finally realize
that it isn't you.
[loud crash]
Ben, stop! Please!
