Épisode La vie à deux S04E02 - What I Like About You Saison 4

Holly et Vince sont toujours en Floride, ils se sont endormis sur la plage dans les bras l’un de l’autre. Vince aimerait aller plus loin avec elle, mais elle n’est pas encore prête.

A New York, Val ne sait plus comment agir avec Vic. Il a dormi sur le canapé, elle cherche donc un moyen de le réveiller, puis, exaspérée, elle hurle, la demande de divorce à la main. Ils sont dérangés par le téléphone : c’est Holly. Elle refuse de décrocher, elle a peur que sa sœur sente son erreur et refuse de lui avouer quoi que ce soit. Elle tente de mettre Vic dehors, sans y parvenir. Il décide de lui faire la cour, pour la faire changer d’avis, et afin de faire les choses dans l’ordre.

En Floride, Holly a du mal à se séparer de Vince et à rentrer : ils doivent rester trois mois sans se voir, le temps qu’il termine son contrat de travail, elle va devoir lui faire confiance. Vince la rassure : il ne veut pas d’autres filles qu’elle, il lui téléphonera tous les jours.

Gary vit toujours chez Tina pour se faire de l’argent en louant son appartement. Tina arrive furieuse au salon de thé, elle explique que Gary n’a pas verrouillé la porte et que ce n’est pas de cette façon qu’il la protégera du maniaque qui rôde. Il lui fait donc croire qu’il avait tout fermé mais que quelqu’un a dû entrer. Ainsi, Tina ne pourra pas se passer de lui et il pourra poursuivre son arnaque. Lorsque Lauren et Val arrivent à la boutique, Tina les met en garde contre le rôdeur. Elle explique que sa technique est simple : il coupe l’électricité, le temps de faire sortir les habitants à cause de la chaleur, et cambriole les appartements de cette manière.

Tout ceci donne une idée à Val : elle va faire couper l’électricité de son appartement. Etant donné qu’il n’y aura plus de climatisation, il aura trop chaud et fuira.

Plus tard dans la journée, alors que Tina a décidé d’inviter Gary au spa pour le remercier de son dévouement, Holly les retrouve dans le couloir de l’immeuble. Elle tient à raconter son histoire avec Vince. Mai elle commence déjà à se plaindre de la distance. Tina en profite pour conseiller à Holly de se méfier du rôdeur, qui coupe l’électricité. Tina et Gary partent au centre de soins, et lorsque Holly entre chez elle, il n’y a plus de courant, et elle entend une voix d’homme, Vic, annoncer qu’il n’y a plus de courant. Elle le frappe, ignorant qu’il s’agit de Vic, et s’enfuit.

En attendant, Val patiente chez Lauren mais elle en a assez de voir les anciennes vidéos de son amie. Holly téléphone à cet instant, Lauren décroche. Holly est paniquée : elle a surpris un homme dans le salon. Lorsque Lauren explique la situation à Val et parle de son mari, Holly entend tout. Elle les retrouve donc chez Lauren, et Val lui explique la situation. Holly n’en revient pas et est sous le choc. Qui plus est, elle trouve le plan de sa sœur de coupure d’électricité ridicule : un pompier ne craint pas la chaleur. Elle décide de prendre les choses en main.

Holly panique, et Lauren l’y encourage : Vince ne l’a toujours pas appelée. Lauren s’en amuse.

Plus tard dans la journée, Holly a donné rendez-vous au salon de thé à Vic. Elle lui demande de signer les papiers du divorce. Elle ne peut s’empêcher de faire un parallèle avec sa relation avec Vince, qui n’a toujours pas appelé. Vic lui explique que c’est son instinct qui le pousse à s’accrocher à Val. Il parvient à convaincre Holly. Il lui conseille aussi d’appeler Vince pour se rassurer. Mais alors qu’il décroche, il arrive derrière elle. Il ne voulait pas rester trois mois sans elle.

Alors que Holly et Vince s’enlacent devant le salon de thé, ils sont rejoints par Gary et Tina. Il panique à l’idée que son ami soit rentré avec trois mois d’avance. Il ne peut pas lui avouer qu’il a sous loué l’appartement à deux étrangers. Il invente alors une histoire de blattes et parle du rôdeur, et Tina lui propose instantanément de venir s’installer chez elle également.

De retour chez elle, Holly retrouve Val. Ne voyant pas Vic, cette dernière remercie sa petite soeur d’avoir réussi là où elle a échoué et de l’avoir débarrassée de son mari. Holly tente de s’échapper, car en réalité, Vic est là… Elle pense qu’ils sont faits pour être ensemble. Et Vic a une proposition : si dans six mois, Val ne veut toujours pas de lui, alors il acceptera le divorce.

Miami, on the beach

Vince : Hey.
Holly : Hey.
Vince : God, you wake up looking even better than when you went to sleep.
Holly : Do I? I can't believe we finally slept together.
Vince : Yeah. You do know, sometimes when people sleep together, they do more than sleep.
Holly : Yep. Just remember, good things come to those who wait.
Vince : And wait and wait and wait.
Holly : Vince, I told you, when I'm ready, you'll be the first to know.
Vince : Okay.
Holly : Where are you going?

Vince : I'm gonna go take a cold, uh ocean.

Val : Get up!

Vic : Aah! Oh. Oh, hey. Good morning, baby.
Val : Annulment papers. Remember? Sign.
Vic : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on there, girl. You really want this marriage to end? You haven't even experienced Vic's special breakfast frittata yet.
Val : Yeah, look, I sat up all night, waiting for you to sign these papers, so...

Vic : You didn't sit up all night.
Val : Yeah, I did.
Vic : You didn't sleep at all?

Val : Okay, well Maybe I dozed off here and there, but...

Vic : So you're comfortable enough to doze with me. That's beautiful, baby.
Phone rings

Val : Oh, God, it's Holly.
Vic : Oh, it's Holly? Hey, you know what? She is gonna be so excited we got married. Let me say "hi".
Val : No. No, and I can't say "hi" either, because she will sense in my "hi" that something is wrong, terribly, terribly wrong, like we got married.
Vic : Ooh, look at you. You're all feisty in the morning. I like that.
Val : Stop liking me.
Vic : Okay, look. Here you go.
Val : Just, please, make you go away. Right there.
Vic : I can't, "V."

Val : No, do not go having cute little nicknames for me.
Vic : Okay my little Valerina.
Val : You know what? Fine. If you're not gonna sign the papers, then just leave.
Vic : Well, I kind of can't do that, either.
Val : Yeah, you can. Remember how you came in? Reverse it.
Vic : Look, Val, what can I say? I mean, marriage is very important to me, okay? My mom and dad have been married for 42 years. My grandma and grandpa... and they're still in love. Val, I wouldn't have married you if I wasn't sure you were the girl I could spend the rest of my life with.
Val : That is very sweet, Vic. Really. But, uh, you see, people don't just get married after one night. They meet, they date, they woo.
Vic : Okay, well, we can date. What are you doing tonight?

Val : You want to woo?

Vic : Yeah, yeah.
Val : See, that's not how it works. 'Cause you've got to pick me up from elsewhere, which means you've got to go elsewhere. Go ahead, go elsewhere. Bye.

Vic : God, I just love how passionate you get, you know? You've got fire, and I'm a fireman. Mm-hmm. Fire.

Miami

Holly : Oh, this is so unfair. We're finally a couple, and we only have one day to spend together.
How are we gonna go three months without seeing each other? Oh, I'm gonna be so sad. So am I the only one who's sad here?

Vince : I'm gonna miss you. So-o-o much.
Holly : I'm gonna miss you more.
Vince : I love you.
Holly : I love you more.
Vince : Holly, I hate to say this, but I gotta go back to work, and you're gonna miss your flight.
Holly : I'll miss my flight more.
Vince : Bye.
Holly : Bye more. So, since I've been gone, I've been doing a little thinking. And we're gonna be apart for three months. I mean, are we still gonna be exclusive? I mean, just you and me?

Vince : Holly, I love you. There's nobody else I ever want to see, ever again. Just you and me...perfect.
Holly : Okay.
Vince : Go with God.
Holly : Nobody else?

Vince : Nobody else.
Holly : As far as us calling each other

Vince : I'll call you every day. That will work. There you go.
Holly : Perfect. Okay. Peace out. Listen. I don't want to sound insecure or anything, but, Excuse me, ladies...
Vince : Holly, I'm gonna think about you every second. At times, it may be tough, but I know our love is deep.
Holly : It knows no distance.
Vince : Yes, the days are gonna go on forever, and the nights even longer. At times, I may cry.
Holly : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Somebody's getting a little too attached.
Vince : Yes, this is your landlord.

New-York

Gary : Re: your message, I never said it had an air-conditioner. I said hair conditioner. And for $3,000 a month, go ahead and use all you want. Gotta go.

Tina : What up, roomie?

Tina : Gary, you left without locking the front door. If you're not gonna protect me from the prowler, just move back to your place.
Gary : No, no, no. I mean, Tina I locked the front door.
Tina : What? Oh, God, you can't move out.
Gary : That's what I thought.
Val : So now he won't sign the annulment papers, and he won't leave my apartment. He slept on the couch all night long.
Lauren : Is he hairy?

Val : Lauren ! A little in the center. Gary, you're pretending to work and listening to everything I'm saying, aren't you?

Gary : Mm-hmm.
Val : Then help me. How do I get Vic to leave?

Tina : Is Gary telling you about the prowler?

Val : How creepy is that? What prowler?

Gary : Um, the one that they're not writing about in the paper 'cause it was scaring the readers too much.
Tina : Yeah, this guy cuts off the electricity in the building. And with this heat wave, the tenants are forced to leave, and that's when he strikes. He's stolen, like, millions of dollars.
Val : That is genius.
Lauren : Yeah, I know. Forget about a doctor. I want to marry a prowler.
Val : No. I'm gonna sweat him out.
Lauren : What are you doing?

Val : I'm calling Con-ed and having my electricity turned off. It's perfect. He'll be in the apartment. It'll be, like, 900 degrees. He'll get all hot and sweaty.

Lauren : And all hairy. Remember, you said he's hairy.
Val : He won't be able to take it. That boy is gonna bake. He'll be out of there by tonight.
Lauren : Hey, he didn't have hair on his back, did he? 'Cause I like that, too.

Tina's hall

Gary : Okay, the coast is clear, Tina. You can come out. There's no prowler. Now we can leave safely for our facials.
Holly : Hey, I'm home!

Tina : Holly! Oh, I missed you.
Holly : Oh ! I have so much to tell you. Vince and I are in love.
Tina : Finally ! Oh, God, I'm so happy. So all the whining's over. Wait, he didn't come back with you, did he?

Holly : No. We're gonna be apart for three months. Oh, it's gonna be so sad.
Tina : And we're back.
Holly : No. No, no, no. I am not gonna go there. I trust what Vince and I have. We are in love. And he's gonna call me every day, 'cause we're exclusive. Our love is deep. It knows no distance.
Tina : Ooh, I'm sure it doesn't.
Gary : Okay, now, let's hang out later.
Tina : Because right now I'm treating Gary to a spa day because he's been so nice to me.
Holly : Hmm... Gary?

Tina : Yeah. There's a prowler in the neighborhood, so Gary's staying with me until he's caught.
Holly : Wait, what, there's a prowler?

Gary : Oh, well, don't worry. He, uh, he only turns off your electricity, and he waits till everyone's gone, and then he steals all your good stuff. He doesn't hurt anybody.
Tina : Wait. If he hasn't hurt anybody...

Gary : Yet. Move it, girl. I gotta get exfoliated.
Tina : Make sure you double-lock your doors.
Holly : Val, I'm back, and I'm in love! The lights don't work. Aah! Aah! Gary, Tina, the perp's in my house!

 

Lauren's

Lauren : Okay, so that's me at Camp Chubby-Wubby. How cute was I? Look at those dimples. Ugh.
Remind me to never pull my pants down on camera.
Val : Hey, do you think Vic's gone and I can go home yet?

Lauren : Wait, wait. You haven't seen me swallow a whole moon pie. It's like a snake eating a rat. Here ! Look at my neck. Look at my neck!

(Phone rings)

Val : Oh, God, it's Holly again.
Lauren : So answer it.
Val : No, I can't. I can't lie to her, and I don't want her to know about Vic. Here, you take it.
Lauren : Okay.
Holly : Hello.
Lauren : Hey, Holl, you're back. How you doing? Yes, Val is here with me, and nothing crazy happened at all while you were gone.
Holly : Oh, thank God she's okay.
Lauren : Well, of course she's okay. Why wouldn't she be okay? Nothing crazy happened at all while you were gone.
Holly : Because I just got home, and there's a prowler in the loft, and I might have killed him.
Lauren : Hey, good news, Val. Holly might have just killed your husband.
Holly : What?

Lauren : Nothing. Bye-bye.

Lauren's

Holly : Married?! I go away for 24 hours, and you have a husband?

Val : Now, Holly I know it sounds irresponsible, but try to understand. I was drunk. And what about you? You went to Florida without telling anybody.
Holly : Huh, let's see. A weekend away a descent into hell.
Lauren : Okay, come on. So back to Vince... Florida, loves you, tearful goodbye. Okay, so how many times has he called you already?

Holly : Lauren, not now. I'm dealing with Val.
Lauren : Oh, God. He hasn't called yet? No, I'm sure it's fine.
Holly : It is fine, okay? Now, what are we gonna do about Drunkie?

Val : Jeez! One night of booze and then getting married and everybody's all up in my grill.
Lauren : You know what? Maybe he sent you a text message. Vince loves you way too much to ignore you so soon. Oh, boy.
Holly : What is your problem? Vince said he would call today. It's still today. Okay, now, come on, Val. Let's go.
Val : No, no, we can't, not until Vic leaves.
Holly : And when is that gonna be?

Val : Very soon. I turned the electricity off. I'm sweating him out. Ha!

Holly : Val, he's a fireman. He's good with heat.
Val : Right.
Lauren : Okay, so back to Vince. I am sure it's as simple as his phone slipped out his pocket, fell into a swamp, and a gator got it.
Holly : Lauren! Vince will call! He will want to make sure that I got in safely. I mean, I only landed four hours ago.
Lauren : Okay, now, don't you go to that place, girlfriend. He loves you, and you love him. You two have a real love, not a drunk love like hers.
Val : Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. W-what if Vic never leaves?

Holly : What is happening to you? Will you calm down? There are other ways to get him out.
Val : No, Holly, I have tried everything. I begged. I reasoned. I even called the police, but they all know him, and they congratulated me. And, Holly, we are legally married. That son-of-a-bitch fireman's never gonna leave.
Holly : Will you pull yourself together? You do not want some guy to destroy your life. Now, give me the papers. I'll get Vic to sign, and, as for Vince, I am glad that he doesn't call me every two seconds. I am not one of those clingy girls. (phone rings) Shut up! It's him!

Lauren : Hello, angel girl.
Holly : Lauren!
Lauren : Yeah, I was just checking the line to make sure Vince can get through. It's bad news, honey.

Sugar Babies

Vic : Oh, hey, Holly.
Holly : Hey, Vic. Thank you for meeting me here. I'm here to discuss the matter of you and my sister. By the way, damn, you're still smoking.
Vic : And you. Look at you : all grown up and so beautiful.
Holly : Oh, really? Ugh, I feel like hell. I've been in a relationship all day, and we already need counseling.
Vic : I'm sorry.
Holly : Okay, don't try to charm me. I'm here to discuss my sister.
Vic : Hey, am I the luckiest guy in the world or what?

Holly : Enough chitchat! I need you to sign these papers, and then I need you to leave.
Vic : I can't.
Holly : Mm-hmm, uh-huh, oh-ho. You can, and you're gonna because, um let me tell you something that you may not know. Val is a lesbian.
Vic : Okay, um, Holly, let me tell you something you don't know. I know Val is the one for me. She knows it, too. She's just a little slow on the uptake.
Holly : Listen to me, Vic. I learned a very important lesson today. You can not make someone love you. Sure, you have one crazy night in Florida, Atlantic city. You get caught up in the romance, the palm trees, the pink sunset, the beat of the salsa. Then, all of a sudden, you kiss him goodbye, you land at Kennedy, he never calls you again, and everything else blows up in your face.
Vic : You want to talk about it, Holly?

Holly : We're talking about you, Vic, not me. Now, sign the damn papers.
Vic : Holly, haven't you ever done something without thinking because you knew in your gut it was right?

Holly : Yeah, pretty much everything.
Vic : Well, you see, every now and then, my gut is so strong that I have to listen to it. And the night I laid eyes on your sister again, my gut was screaming, "Don't let her go."

Holly : But hers is screaming, "Let me go!"

Vic : That's why she can't hear my gut. But you can. You're a gut-follower. I mean, isn't that what brought you to your crazy, salsa-filled night in Florida?

Holly : Maybe.
Vic : And I'm guessing it was a pretty incredible night.
Holly : Oh, it was the most amazing night I ever had. It was the most amazing kiss I ever had, the most amazing feeling I have ever had.
Vic : And if you didn't follow your gut, you never would have had that night. I don't want to miss my night in Florida, Holly. Do you want your sister to miss hers?

Holly : No! I mean, I want her to have everything.
Vic : So do I. That is why I can't sign these papers.
Holly : And you shouldn't! I don't want Val to miss her chance.
Vic : That's what I'm saying.
Holly : Oh, man. She is so lucky to have you. Don't you give up, Vic.
Vic : Oh, I won't. I won't, Holly. Thank you for talking to me.
Holly : Aww.
Vic : And can I just say, if you want to talk to this guy, just call him.
Holly : No, I can't. It's so pushy. It's one of those girl qualities that guys hate.
Vic : Well, I got to tell you : if a girl like you called me, I'd be thrilled.
Holly : Val is such a fool.
Holly call Vince

Holly : Vince, you answered! Holly. You know, the girl who woke up in your arms on the beach this morning. Listen, I know you're busy, and I know you're surrounded by beautiful women, and it's okay.I mean, if you forget to call...Vince!?

He's here

Vince : Hey, baby.
Holly : Hey! Oh, what are you Mmm.
Vince : doing here? How could I go three months without you? I missed you the second you walked out the door. Holly, we've waited so long to be together, there was no way I was gonna go another day without my baby girl.
Holly : I'm your baby girl? I'm your baby girl more.

Gary : Oh, my damn. Vince is home early, three months early! Vince! Yeah, yeah, well, what the hell are you doing home three months early? You didn't go to the apartment, did you?

Vince : No, I came straight here.
Gary : Oh, so you didn't go to the apartment. Good, good. You know, 'cause, um, w-w-we got bugs.
Yeah, so I've been staying with Tina at her place because there's a prowler loose, and I thought, "Wouldn't this be a good time to have an exterminator at our place?" You know, for the critters.
Vince : It's okay.
Tina : You can stay with us. My loft is huge.
Gary : With a ja-kwa-zee.
Holly : That would be perfect. We'll be right across the hall, just like Ross and Rachel.
Gary, to Tina : He got to do the chores. Can't nobody stay for free.

Val's

Holly : He's gone.

Val : Oh, he's gone. Thank you. I love you.
Holly : Oh, I love you, too. Oh, but I am super tired, so I'm gonna get some shut-eye. 'Night!
Val : No! Wait, wait, wait! What happened?

Holly : Oh, Vince missed me so much that he came back from Florida. That's why he didn't call. He was on the plane the whole time.
Val : See? You were all worried for nothing. 'Night!

Val : No, no, no! Wait! Holly, I am so happy for us. You are in a relationship, and I am out of one.
Wait W-w-w-what's with that face? Holly, where are my signed annulment papers?

Holly : Val, you are gonna have to start learning how to trust in relationships.
Val : What the hell's going on? What happened with Vic? What did you say to him? What did he say to you? I want my papers. Where is Vic?

Vic : Hey, honey. I picked up some raisin bran. We were out.
Val : The son-of-a-bitch fireman bought raisin bran.
Holly : We did need raisin bran.
Val : Why-y-you do understand that unless you sign these papers, it is gonna take six months to end this marriage?

Vic : I'll tell you what. In six months, if you don't love me (but you will)... I will leave.
Val : You are out of your mind.
Holly : Come on! Let yourself love! Take the deal.
Val : Just a minute.
