Lily smiles: "Are you kidding? I used to live in a convent, okay? What's one phobic roommate who mumbles?" Nuns everywhere are taking umbrage. Well probably not. I don't think they allow TVs in convents. Speaking of mumbly roommates, Ginger is standing up now, mumbling and gesturing: "Mvmgmlsm tea?" Lily says she'd love some tea. Kevin doesn't want any. Ginger drifts off to the kitchen, which isn't where the cat went before, so I guess it was destroying one of the bedrooms. Kevin takes advantage of their momentary solitude to kiss Lily, but quickly breaks it off: "Wait, so she, like, never leaves?" Lily: "She left once last year. Fire drill." Ginger's got pretty short hair for someone who never goes out. Either she cuts it or Lily does. Kevin muses, "So I'm going to have to set a fire for us to be alone?" Lily asks if he's ever thought about getting his own place. He just keeps smiling blankly and doesn't say anything. Lily's surprised: "God, that was rhetorical, but you really haven't " Kevin: "Yeah, someday, sure, but there are practical things to consider." Lily just stares at him questioningly. He adds, "There are considerations that are practical." Clearly, she's already forgotten his endearing conversation on their first date. Lily smirks: "Like?" Kevin: "Money." Lily sputters, "You -- you make more money than I do." Kevin: "And other stuff." Lily shakes her head slightly, mystified. Kevin: "You're going to make me say it. Okay I have to have help." She says there are all kinds of county programs for in-home care. Really? Does she know for a fact that they're available to anyone other than the neediest of the needy? (And maybe not even that.) Because that's not what I hear. And I'm guessing private in-home care ain't cheap. Lily's still incredulous: "You seriously haven't thought about it?" Trying to be suave, Kevin puts his arm around her and cuddles her a bit, saying, "Well, I haven't had to before now." Because all the women I've been sleeping with live by themselves, is the part he doesn't add. Lily laughs a bit nervously and says he can't live with his parents forever: "I mean, it is very sexy and all, but I don't know " Kevin: "You are a very obnoxious nun!" Lily: "I know." They're smooching when Ginger comes back in, bearing a tea tray and looking a bit anxious when she sees what she's interrupted. She starts to turn around, but Lily notices her and mentions it to Kevin. Ginger puts the tea down: "Mnrgrmlrv "
