Luke was sitting on the couch in Central Perk, going through some patient files, when Jack walks in, with a chip on his shoulder the size of a boulder.
"Luke, we need to talk,"Jack says walking over to the couch where Luke was sitting.
"Funny, those are the exact words my last four girlfriends said right before they dumped me,"Luke says looking up from his work.
"You didn't have any right to go through my stuff, and decide what is worth keeping and what is trash,"Jack says as Luke sets the file onto the table.
"I only did it because your line between trash and keep is so fuzzy you can't even see it if your face is an inch above the ground,"Luke says standing up to face Jack.
"And yours is so huge they can see it from Mars, and do you know who they are,the Martians who want to know who the jackass is who doesn't see the need to keep anything but the clothes on his back and a pair of cheap hockey skates that were probably made before my Grandfather ran off with the pool boy and became a drag queen in Vegas,"Jack says as Luke looks at him confused.
"Drag queen, you know what I don't want to know,"Luke says turning away from Jack slightly.
"Yeah, you really don't, and you also don't want to come to Thanksgiving, that's just awkward,"Jack says before getting mad again,"Only I have the right to say which of my professions are worth keeping and goes in the trash, as long as you choose to live under my roof you'll live under my rules,".
"So it's your roof because I thought since we share the rent, it's our roof, so I'll live however I damn well please,"Luke says turning back to Jack.
"Well if you're going to live however you damn well please, then I will to, so all of my stuff stays,"Jack says laying down the law.
"Then I'll continue getting rid of anything I own that has no use,"Luke says putting his hands on his hips.
"Fine, do what you want, that's what you do anyway,"Jack says as Luke looks at him like he wants to strangle him.
"We've known each other a week, you know nothing about me, if you did you would know why I keep those skates and why I don't keep much else, so don't pretend like you do,"Luke says moving his hands when he spoke to emphasize his point.
"Oh I'm sorry, but maybe that's because the only thing you've told me about yourself is that your father is a famous actor, you were raised by a single mother and that you're a doctor. I haven't met anyone more secretive than my college roommate with the tattoos and the eyeliner, I didn't even know that his name was Steve until graduation,"Jack says as Luke picks up the files from the coffee table and his black leather coat from the back of the couch.
"Look, do what you want, just stop dragging my past into it,"Luke says as he leaves the coffee house,leaving Jack alone.
He thought that maybe Luke might be right, but he wasn't about to go talk to his sister about it, so he goes to go find the person who might be able to help.
Ben.
