Serena: So, how's your mom doing... with the divorce¹ and everything?

Blair: Great. So my dad left her for another man. She's lost 15 pounds, got an eye-lift. It's been good for her.

Serena: I'm really sorry.

Blair:Yeah, I could tell since you didn't call or write the entire time it was happening.

Serena:No, I know... I was just... boarding school... it's like...

Blair:I don't even know why you went to boarding school to begin with. Do you know how it felt, calling your house when you didn't show up at school and having your mom say: Serena didn't tell you that she moved to Connetticut?

Serena: I just... I had to go. I needed to get away from everything. Please just trust me.

Blair: How can I trust you when I feel like I don't even know you.

Serena:Let's fix that. I saw you at school with Katy and Is and I get it. I don't want to take any of that away from you. I just...

Blair: Because it's just yours to take if you want it?

Serena:No, that's not what I mean. I... I miss you. I just want things to go back to the way they used to be. You know, walking to school togheter, dancing on tables at Bungalow², the nights when we were at your mom's country house. You were like my sister... and with our families... we need each other.

Blair:Well, you missed some classic³ Eleanor Waldorf melt-downs. If it wasn't such a tragedy⁴ it would have been funny. Actually kinda was.

Serena:Well, I wish I could have been there.

Blair:You are now. I have to meet Nate. I kind of have something special and...

Serena:Well, I don't want to keep you but... I love you, B.

Blair:I love you too, S.
