Kyle XY

Previously on Kyle XY...

- The thought of you two living together - It's not like that.

She needs a place to live, a family.

- I know, but... - You're the only one for me.

- I never caught your name. - Jessi.

I'm Cassidy.

I've counseled a lot of teenagers over the years.

I have never given up on any of them.

I'm not giving up on you.

I heard you've been spending time with Lori Trager.

- We're just hanging out. - Not anymore.

There you are.

- I don't know how to say this. - Mark told me he won't date me

- because he's afraid for his future. - Good. He should be.

Why do you get to decide who I can go out with?

Because I'm your father and you live in my house.

I thought you'd be with Andi.

Her mom extended their vacation rental another 3 weeks.

I just really miss her.

With Kyle I'm just a sidekick.

But out here I'd sink 'em half the time with my eyes closed.

What did you do to Amanda? You put something in her head.

We might be able to disintegrate it. I'd like to help.

- You've done enough. - Kyle, that's it.

Pass the electricity through a kiss. You'll have to practice.

- Are you ready? - Just try to be gentle.

- Amanda, let me explain. - You are always trying to explain.

But there is no explanation for why you were kissing Jessi!

I can feel what's happening between you two.

But I can't be with you when I know I'm losing you to someone else.

- You can never lose me. - I already have.

The call it heartache,

a hurt so profound it becomes hard to breathe.

I had never felt it before,

and I wondered,

will it ever go away?

I know you're hurting over Amanda.

But you have to stop obsessing.

And I have just the distraction.

The allure of a new woman.

See? Many new women.

Two dimensional, yes, but still satisfying.

It's a safe, easy escape with someone you love.

You!

Let music be your relief, your way out.

You're wallowing in sorrow, you're depressed.

You're pining. You need A minor.

Come on, now. With more feeling. Commit.

Great.

Trust me, you're not the first guy to get dumped.

Think of it as a rite of passage.

Mine was tenth grade, Beth Ann Johnson.

Beautiful, adventurous, a gymnast.

Deadly.

Stick with me, now.

I'm ready.

What are you doing?

Wiping Amanda from Kyle's memory.

Could you give us a minute?

- But I'm all charged up. - Jessi, please.

Fine. I'll just go zap someone else, then.

I'm kidding.

She is kidding, right?

What you're going through takes time.

But it will take even longer

the more you lay around here and feel sorry for yourself.

It's time to get up, or man up, whatever the phrase is these days.

- Man up? - Out of the tub. Now.

Either that or fill it with soap and water because you stink.

Come on.

- We should go. - Sit.

I thought Amanda didn't work on Fridays.

You know her schedule?

That's so co-dependent.

I've been reading some of Nicole's books.

Like it or not, you're gonna see her. She lives next door,

so get used to it.

- If you want my advice... - We don't.

I can't believe he came in here with her.

- Who? - Please. I saw your jaw clinch.

By the way, don't grind or you'll get really bad TMJ

and have to eat creamed spinach the rest of your life.

- Do they look like a couple? - Pumpkin, don't torture yourself.

Just look over there and tell me.

I see a decided lack of chemistry.

Nothing like what Ky-manda exuded.

- She just looked over here. - She did?

Don't look back. She'll see you.

- Where should I look? - Anywhere. Here, look at me.

Yeah. Yeah, look deep into Trager's eyes.

That's not weird.

Kyle, look at me.

I don't think that's a good idea. As a matter of fact,

maybe you shouldn't be sitting next to me.

Maybe I should just sit at another table.

I'll make it easier for you.

Jessi, wait.

Feeling better?

Are you using your car?

What? I couldn't hear you.

Could I borrow your car, please?

For?

I want to go out.

Where to?

I'm not sure.

What, you just gonna drive around aimlessly?

Can I borrow your car or not?

Josh has it.

Josh has the car? Josh has a car.

His radiator's busted so he took mine.

You couldn't just say that in the first place?

And be straight with you? Like you were when you went to see Mark?

Passive-aggressive doesn't really suit you.

- You lied to me, Lori. - You gave me a good reason to.

Jessi, is that you?

Come on in. I was just looking at these colors.

Any preferences?

For the walls. Any preferences?

Not really. Any color's fine.

It's gonna be your room.

I want you to feel comfortable.

Something bothering you?

I'm sorry.

- I shouldn't... - Why are you sorry?

Habit.

Being in this room, I guess, trying to get people to open up.

Just know you can talk to me whenever you want to.

In this room or not in this room.

- I feel... - That daughter of yours!

This green's fine.

- I should talk to her. - Bad idea.

- I could explain. - What? Why you kissed another girl?

Right in front of her? You can't take that back.

You're finished, Kyle. It's over.

Way to lift his spirits, dude.

Come on. We're getting out of here.

- Where are we going? - I've got just the cure.

Good magazine?

If by good you mean trashy and trivial and

completely devoid of journalistic value, then yes, it's fantastic.

I'll leave you alone.

Wait.

You don't have to. It's not you.

Who is it?

My father. He's unbelievable.

He's got this bug up his ass about Mark.

A bug?

He's pulling this big power trip on me.

And now I am stuck here,

carless

with no place to go.

I wish I had a place of my own.

I do.

The apartment. I still have the keys.

What are we waiting for?

There's really nothing to do there.

It doesn't matter. It's not here.

Are you coming?

Is this spot OK?

It's fine. I parked here a million times.

Where are we?

Kyle, my friend, we're at a Seattle landmark.

Little-known watering hole, tradition passed on from generation

- to generation of teenagers. - What is it?

A bar that doesn't check IDs.

Isn't that illegal?

Tonight isn't about technicalities.

It's about letting loose,

it's about seeing how much fun life can be post-Amanda.

So, why are we at a bar?

You don't even have cable ?

I told you there's nothing to do here.

Hi, Jessi. How are you ?

How are you doing ?

What are you two ladies up to this evening ?

What did you have in mind ?

I was gonna go meet a friend for coffee. Any suggestions ?

Try the Rack.

God, no. It's totally lame.

Check out.

Actually, their lattes are amazing.

Well, we have to go.

Cool. Maybe I'll see you later ?

Maybe.

What's the matter with you ?

Ladies, looking good.

You want to take it down a notch ?

Ladies.

That girl keeps smiling at me.

- She likes you, dude. - She doesn't even know me.

She feels the heat.

See ? Everyone's having a great time.

I don't think so, little man.

- You're kidding me, right ? - Your dad would kill me.

You're our designated driver.

This sucks.

What are you doing ?

I just...

Are you calling Amanda ?

Dude, you're missing the point. Forget Amanda.
