00:01Hey. Hey, how are you?
00:03You know, I've been better.
00:07Eric, I know I've been a terrible sister.
00:10I'm just so happy to see you.
00:15Must be a lot of rumors while you're back.
00:16Yeah, but none of them mention you.
00:19Just like Mom wants, huh?
00:20What do I want, baby? For Serena to sleep in her own bed, possibly wearing pajamas.
00:25Morning, Mom.
00:26Hey, I was just about to ask the doctor if I could take Eric to breakfast.
00:29Want to come?
00:30Um, no.
00:33I think what I'll do is go get him a croissant down the street.
00:39Serena, don't.
00:42Let me guess.
00:42You told everyone Eric's just visiting Grandpa in Rhode Island.
00:45You're Aunt Carol in Miami.
00:47So you're actually hiding him?
00:48He tries to take his own life, and you're worried it's going to cost you Mom of the Year?
00:51Serena, you've been gone.
00:52Doing who knows what with God knows who.
00:54I told you, boarding school was not like that.
00:56You know what?
00:56As happy as I am to have you home, you have no idea what it's been like.
01:10Guess who's dad is cool.
01:12It's a trick question.
01:12Yeah, because it can't be ours.
01:14Ha ha ha ha ha.
01:15Look at this.
01:17Top 10 forgotten bands of the 90s.
01:20Check out his number nine.
01:21He's very proud.
01:22Hey, hey, way to be forgotten.
01:24But that's how you get remembered.
01:26Maybe you'd care if Dad's band was on Gossip Girl.
01:28What?
01:29Gossip Girl, it's lots for chicks.
01:31So that was in your laptop up into it last night, reading all about Serena Vanderwood.
01:35Rolling Stone?
01:35Wow.
01:36Let me take a look at this again, Dad.
01:37It's pretty cool.
01:38Looking hawk number nine.
01:40Hey, what are you working on?
01:41It's called the Kiss on the Lips Party.
01:43Everyone's going.
01:43You were invited to that?
01:45Well, no offense if I sound surprised, since I've never been invited.
01:48One of the girls in my art class saw my calligraphy, and she said that if I adjust all the
01:51invitations, that I could have one.
01:53Sounds very fair.
01:54Sweatshops could learn a thing or two.
01:55Dad, this is not a platform for any anti-capitalist friends.
01:58Yes, it is.
01:58Besides, you make us go to private schools.
01:59That's for your education.
02:00So we should just be anonymous losers, eat lunch alone, and never get invited to parties.
02:04Works for me.
02:05Mom thinks it's a good idea.
02:06And her judgment is always sound, right?
02:12Jenny, if you want to go to that party, you should go.
02:16The kids could eat some fun.
02:28Nate?
02:29Oh, hey.
02:30Your mom told me you guys were staying here at the palace.
02:33Yeah, we're renovating again.
02:35You know my mom.
02:35If it's not broke, break it.
02:40So what are you doing here?
02:41Oh, I just wanted to see how you were.
02:43You seemed kind of upset last night.
02:44I got to get going and change for school.
02:46I'm going to be late.
02:47Serena.
02:48No.
02:49No.
02:50But you're back now.
02:50I didn't come back for you.
02:53Look, Blair's my best friend, and you're her boyfriend, and she loves you.
02:57That's the way things are supposed to be.
