Last time, Nate explained what he meant when he said he “broke it off” with Rose.

Transcript
Nate: It's just... We were moving too fast. It was going to be a disaster.
Steve (skeptical): ...If you say so.
(Close-up of Steve handing Nate his car keys)
Steve: Well, if you're not gonna get laid, take these. Nate: Your keys?
Steve: If you don't want this trip to be for nothing, you'd better go talk to your old store manager.
Nate: Fine, but they're probably not hiring anyway.
(Grocery store interior. Nate is in "job application" clothes, speaking to a man in a white shirt and black tie with a nametag that reads "Store Manager - Corbin")
Corbin: Can you start tomorrow?
