Dan：She probably thinks I hate her now. I've waited my entire adolescent life for a date with this girl.You know,

　　Serena van der Woodsen and I decide to close the evening with a wave.

　　Jenny：It was a nice wave.

　　Dan：At the end of a date? Come on, there's no such thing. And you only get one shot with a girl like Serena.I got mine, and I blew it.

　　Jenny：Which means you have nothing to lose.

　　Dan：No, nothing except my last shred of dignity.

　　Jenny：Oh, no. I think that's gone.

　　Dan：You're right.You know what? I'm just… I'm gonna go talk to her. I'm gonna apologize for the wave. I'm gonna tell her

　　how much I like her and I'm gonna ask for a second shot.No, I'm gonna get a second shot.

　　Jenny：Yeah, you are.

　　Dan: Yeah.

　　Jenny：Wait, wait, wait. I love the plan.But you need a better outfit.And maybe a shower.

　　**************

　　Serena：Whatever. It's probably for the best.The last thing I need in my life is a new guy.He was just so smart though and funny.

　　Eric：It sounds like you like him.

　　Serena：And really nice.God! Blair was so mean to me last night. I don't even know why. Whatever, I'm sure if we talk about it,we can work it out.Hey, maybe I should go over there.

　　*********************

　　Blair: Serena had better just stay away.Thank you, Dorota.

　　Kati：Yeah, thanks.We love sleeping at Blair's.

　　Blair: I don't want to see Serena at school and she better not show at brunch today.

　　Kati：You're really mad at Serena.

　　Isabel：Yeah, I hope you never get that mad at us.

　　Blair: Well, you would never do what Serena did?

　　Kati：No, never.

　　Blair: Of course not.

　　Blair: I wonder if Nate remembered brunch.It would be so wrong for me to show up without my boyfriend Whom I love and who loves me.

　　(cell phone beeps)

　　Nate：Mm.Hello?

　　Blair: Hi, sweetie. Did I wake you?

　　Nate：No, I'm up.

　　Blair: Well. Get some strong coffee and jump in the shower,sleepyhead. Chuck's dad's brunch for his foundation is today at the Palace.

　　Nate：That kid popped you pretty good, huh? Never mess with a guy's sister.

　　Chuck：And if i knew his name,I'd hunt him down and kill him

　　Nate：Why? 'cause you kill people now? You gonna strangle him with your scarf?

　　Chuck：Don't mock the scarf, Nathaniel. It's my signature.

　　Nate：I'm just saying.Death by scarf…Not that intimidating.

　　Chuck：He sucker punched me.I told you.Besides, better a broken nose than a broken heart.

　　Nate：What? I didn't even talk to Serena last night.

　　Chuck：Who said anything about serena?

　　Serena: Mom,did you borrow my Michelle Perrys? I can't find anything in here!

　　Lily：Well, it might help if you unpacked.Look, you're home now.It's your life.You should start living it.

　　Serena: This is not life.This is a hotel,which we're living in because you decided you didn't like the color of the walls

　　in our real home. Mom, I said I'd go to this brunch. What more do you want from me?

　　Lily：Sweetie, why are you being like this? You love parties. This is just not like you.

　　Serena: Maybe it is like me. Maybe you don't know what I'm really like.

　　Lily：Oh, okay, tell me.So did you and Dan have fun at the concert last night?

　　Serena: We never made it.We actually ended up at the kiss on the lips party.

　　Lily：Ah. Well,that must have pleased Blair.

　　Serena: Blair? Actually No, not that pleased,which is why I'm going to talk to her.

　　Lily：Well just be back in time for brunch, okay?

　　Serena: Mom.

　　Lily：Look, honey, I know how hard it is for you to be back but the more you hide yourself away, the more people are gonna think

　　you have something to hide.

　　Serena: Coming from someone who's keeping my brother in an institution.

　　Lily：That's different.I mean it. Don't be late.

　　Serena: Wait.
