Brothers & Sisters S1E08

"Mistakes Were Made: Part 1"

It's painful. Especially when Scotty says "Congratulations" to Kevin, it's like a very strong heavy sarcasm. But basically it's Kevin's fault. He shouldn't have said to Scotty "If you not gonna support me, then shut up!" in the last episode.

Kevin: So do you have any plans for lunch?
Scotty: Lunch? Us?
Kevin: Yeah, I thought maybe we could celebrate with lunch. You could even buy now, since you're so flush. Since we're sort of equals.
Scotty: Me having money makes us equals?
Kevin: Only in terms of...
.
.
Scotty: I usually don't like to admit this, but I was completely wrong about you.
.
.
Scotty: It took me a long time to figure out how much I'm worth. (snip) It's taking you, let's see... two months, to make me feel worthless. Congratulations.

Scotty leaves Kevin's office with no money. I didn't feel happy with this scene, of course, but I expected something making out between them. Unfortunately my hope didn't become true. Anyway, the breaking up is so sad. When I watched this episode, I was really really disappointed.

Kevin: Hi Scotty, it's... emm it's Kevin, your least favourite Martian. Look, I've been on your planet for thirty-four years, and I still get a lot of things wrong. Like about money and work and people and life and... love.... Everything. Anyway, I just wanted you to know, I think you're amazing and funny and cute as hell, and I just hope that someday, maybe, I don't know, three Martian years from now, because our years are longer than yours. Maybe I could be worthy of your human love and respect, whether we're together or not. That's all.

Wow, his confession on the phone is absolutely fantastic. If I were Scotty I maybe forgive him. but...

Kevin: Please tell me this is the part where you let me off the hook.
Scotty: It's not.

Scotty: Could you please send me the check.
Kevin: I already did.
Scotty: Okay then, bye.
Kevin: Bye....(sniff)
