PREVIOUSLY ON ONE TREE HILL

ERIN: I got up and I sang at an open Mike the other night.

HALEY: I was there.

ERIN: What do you mean you were there?

HALEY: Well, Red Bedroom Records is my label. I think you're great. I would love to meet with you sometime.

CLAY: You're gonna be great at this. And Troy must agree with me because he wants you to be his Agent. Congratulations, you signed your first client.

ATTORNEY: So, you see, even if you were to liquidate all the company's assets, you'd only be able to pay back your investors 70% of what they lost.

BROOKE: What if I liquidate everything?

ATTORNEY: Are we talking about your personal fortune?

BROOKE: Everything I own.

BROOKE: Can I help you?

SYLVIA: Is my son here?

BROOKE: Oh, please, God, no.

JAMIE'S BEDROOM

Julian makes documentary about Jamie but he doesn't speak.

JULIAN: So, you think I could get a smile? Come on, man. Really? What, you're just gonna go the rest of your life without smiling? Well, what if I told you a joke? Or what if I made this sound? Blah-la-lu bloo-ba-do boo-boo-ba-do. Okay, well, do me a favor. Just smile for one second. And then you can live the rest of your sourpuss life in peace. How about it? I got to say, the braces aren't that bad, bro. I'm serious. I mean, maybe you could use a gold tooth or some bling, but overall, it's a good look.

JAMIE: I think it sucks.

AIRPORT

Clay brings Nathan to the airport.

NATHAN: This sucks.

CLAY: It doesn't suck.

NATHAN: It kind of does.

CLAY: It doesn't, and it won't.

NATHAN: It did the last time.

CLAY: Yeah, well, last time was different, all right? This time all the terms are in place. The contract's a good one. I mean, all you have to do is just fly to Atlanta and convince Troy to sign the contract.

NATHAN: There's that part that could suck again.

CLAY: Oh, come on, dude. It's me and you, fortitude. Let's hear some spirit.

NATHAN: Escalators are an incentive based on performance.

CLAY: It's a start. Just get him to sign the contract.

ATTORNEY'S OFFICE

Brooke signs some papers.

ATTORNEY: And sign here. Initial here. And sign here. Thank you, Ms. Davis. As of this moment, your ownership is terminated, and you are no longer affiliated with the Clothes Over Bros brand. May I have my pen?

JAMIE'S BEDROOM

Jamie looks at his dental apparatus. Haley comes to see him.

HALEY: Hey. What?

JAMIE: What's with the eye patch?

HALEY: Oh. It's pretty cool, huh?

JAMIE: No. How come you're wearing that?

HALEY: Um, I don't know. It's just something new I'm trying. Hey, what time is your baseball practice today? I thought I would come by and watch and cheer...Loudly.

JAMIE: Mom, no, you cannot wear that thing to my practice.

HALEY: Oh, yes I can. And as long you pout about your braces, mama's rocking the eye patch all the time, everywhere. Arrrr!

RED BEDROOM RECORDS

Chase brings the mail to Mia.

CHASE: This came for you and Haley. Just in case you wanted to slap me again, I thought I'd help you out.

CLUB TRIC

Mouth returns from the toilets, he meets Jerry, a former colleague.

MOUTH: Jerry?

JERRY: Mouth. How you doing, buddy?

MOUTH: Well, I have a plunger in my hand, and you're wearing a suit, so let's go with, "not as good as you."

JERRY: The station made me program director. You believe that?

MOUTH: Definitely not as good as you. I'm really happy for you, Jerry. You deserve it.

JERRY: Thanks. Dude, were you really just plunging toilets?

MOUTH: Yeah. We really got to stop serving tamales at happy hour.

JERRY: Well, you know how guys are, huh?

MOUTH: It was the girls' bathroom.

JERRY: So, listen... We all miss you down at the station. I'm gonna see what I can do to get you back, okay? I miss you, man.

MOUTH: Thanks, Jerry. I really appreciate that.

JERRY: I'll let you know, okay? I got to go.

MOUTH: Yeah, s-see you later.

BRULIAN'S HOUSE

Sylvia comes to see Brooke.

SYLVIA: Oh, Brooke, honey? I hope you don't mind, but I changed out those hand towels in the kitchen. Oh, and good news, I booked the banquet room at the Oaks for your reception.

BROOKE: I can't afford it.

SYLVIA: You know, I did have to pull a few strings, but it is so lavish. I wish I'd had my reception there.

BROOKE: I said I can't afford it.

SYLVIA: Well, you don't have to, dear. I told you, I'm taking care of it.

BROOKE: I started my clothing line in high school. Did you know that? I made a website, and I sold clothes online. And ever since then, that is who I've been. That's what I've been Clothes Over Bros... Until today.

SYLVIA: Oh, honey, I know you're hurting, but I really don't know what that has to do with the wedding.

BROOKE: When I took the line to New York, I had to attract investors. And what I realized very quickly is that when you take their money, you take their input. I don't want to take your input. I'm sorry. I don't like the Oaks. I don't really like any of it.

SYLVIA: Well, on your budget, there's always white-bread sandwiches and a box of wine.

BROOKE: I just want a small wedding that I can afford... One that feels like mine.

SYLVIA: Okay, you can have your small wedding. You know, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. You have been curt to me ever since I got here.

BROOKE: I have not.

SYLVIA: Yes, you have, and I have news for you, missy. Just because you're upset with your mother is no reason for you to take this out on me.

BROOKE: Just because your son is in love with me is no reason to take it out on my liquor cabinet.

SYLVIA: You're a spoiled little bitch.

BROOKE: Fine, drinky.

SYLVIA: Good luck with the backyard hootenanny.

BROOKE: Good luck with being old. And, by the way, I like my hand towels!

(Julian, hidden in the guest room, with very heard conversation)

ONE TREE HILL – CREDITS

BRULIAN'S HOUSE

Julian makes documentary about Brooke.

JULIAN: Has losing your company been the hardest thing you've ever had to face?

BROOKE: Yes. Clothes Over Bros was so many things for me, a creative outlet, a career, my identity. Losing it is definitely the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. Or second hardest. You haven't met my self-pitying, passive-aggressive future mother-in-law. Or maybe you have.

Julian talks with his mum.

SYLVIA: You should have heard the way she spoke to me.

JULIAN: Yeah, well, I'm sure you provoked her.

SYLVIA: How can you say that? She's poisoned you.

JULIAN: No one's poisoned anyone. Mom, come on. You know how you are.

SYLVIA: And how is that? Tell me.

JULIAN: You're just persistent. You want things your way.

SYLVIA: All I did was buy her these hand towels these perfectly nice hand towels. And did she thank me? No. She lashed out at me with vitriol and malice.

JULIAN: Well, I liked our old hand towels.

SYLVIA: My only son poisoned. Huh. I need a drink. Can you get me one, please?

JULIAN: Mom, you know I love you. And Brooke and I want you to be a part of our wedding. But it's our wedding. It's Brooke's wedding. It's not yours.

SYLVIA: Yes, of course it is, honey. But she wasn't even going to serve a sit-down meal. Hors d'oeuvres? Julian, what's next, a cash bar? The chicken dance?

JULIAN: People like the chicken dance, mom.

SYLVIA: She has poisoned you with her hoo-ha.

JULIAN: Okay. We're done here.

SYLVIA: Well, are you gonna get my wine? Julian? Honey?

RED BEDROOM RECORDS

Erin records her song, Haley and Mia look at her.

HALEY: She's great, right?

MIA: Really great.

HALEY: I know.

MIA: She reminds me of me.

HALEY: I want to work with her, but I think she feels really threatened by it, the idea of recording for a label.

MIA: Well, think about it, hales. I mean, when we first met, all I had were my songs.

HALEY: But I'm gonna protect her. She has to know that.

MIA: Well, I'm sure she hopes that's the case, but she probably just needs to hear you say it and see you mean it. I know I did.

HALEY: Yeah.

CLOTHES OVER BROS

Julian wants to enter the store but he receives a water balloon to his feet. he joins Brooke on the roof.

JULIAN: Nice sh*t. I saw you up here, so I walked as slow as I could.

BROOKE: Sorry. When Peyton was having a bad day, she used to come up here and throw water balloons at people to feel better.

JULIAN: And?

BROOKE: I scared a guy who almost fell. It was kind of fun.

JULIAN: I'm sorry about my mom.

BROOKE: I shouldn't have yelled at her. I'm just having one of those days, you know?

JULIAN: Yeah, I know. But I also know that you're gonna figure out what's next, and it's gonna be amazing.

BROOKE: You think so?

JULIAN: I do.

BROOKE: Thank you. But I still shouldn't be yelling at your mother.

JULIAN: Here's the thing about my mom, she makes people crazy. She doesn't mean to. She just does. But can I tell you a secret? I haven't seen her this inspired in a really long time.

BROOKE: Great. Now I feel even worse.

JULIAN: No, don't. Just understand that my dad wasn't around very much, so all she really had was me, and all I had was her. And now I have you, and I'm sure that scares her a little bit.

BROOKE: I should probably talk to her... And apologize. But first, do you think you could call her and ask her to come to the store so that I could hit her with a water balloon?

JULIAN: Yeah, I can do that. You want me to go back down and walk around so you can practice?

BROOKE: Would you?

JULIAN: Absolutely.

BROOKE: You really are the best fiance ever.

JULIAN: Yes, I am.

BROOKE: You want to hit me with that water balloon, don't you?

JULIAN: So bad.

BROOKE: Don't. Julian. Julian!

CLINN'S HOUSE

Clay tries to open one limps of preserve but he does not arrive there.

CLAY: You got this. No, no. Mm.

FOOTBALL STADIUM

Nathan and Troy arrive at the stadium.

NATHAN: Well, what do you think, Troy? Does this look like a place you could call home for a while?

TROY: This looks like a place I could call home forever.

NATHAN: I was hoping you'd say that. Come on.

NALEY'S HOUSE

Julian makes documentary about Haley.

JULIAN: So I think it's interesting that you had a career, a marriage, and a son while you were still a teenager. What's your life like now?

HALEY: Uh, well, now it's the best of both worlds. I still have a career and a marriage and a son. I still have my music. So... I'm happy, you know? I, uh, I'm really proud of being a good mom. And I'm proud of the work that I've done for Red Bedroom. Life is good.

(Jamie arrive)

JAMIE: Life is so not good. You're not supposed to laugh.

HALEY: I'm sorry. My life is good. My son, on the other hand, is wearing head gear. Come here. Let me see.

JAMIE: Damn it.

HALEY: Hey! Excuse, maybe you could cut out the "being a good mom" part.

CLUB TRIC

Chase and Mouth enter in a room.

MOUTH: Geez. I feel sorry for the guy who has to clean up this place. Which is me.

CHASE: I'll be back.

MOUTH: Oh, man.

JAMIE'S BEDROOM

Haley comes to see Jamie.

HALEY: Hey. Can I talk to you?

JAMIE: Sure.

HALEY: Well, your dad and I thought about it, and we decided you can get your braces off if you want.

JAMIE: I can?

HALEY: Yes, if that's what you want. Besides...You don't need no braces. I mean, look at me. I never got no braces, and I think I look pretty fetchin'. You want a kiss?

JAMIE: No.

HALEY: I brushed my tooth for you. Come on.

JAMIE: Okay, I get it, I get it, I get it, I get it. It's just... Chuck's gonna make fun of me.

HALEY: Well, I remember when I got my braces on, I was really worried about going back to school and seeing all my friends. Uncle Lucas was the first person I saw, and you know what he said?

JAMIE: What?

HALEY: He said "Cool." And everything was okay after that. And I think your braces look cool. And if you decide your braces look cool, then who cares what Chuck says?

JAMIE: Okay.

HALEY: Yeah.

JAMIE: Now you have to promise to never wear that eye patch again.

HALEY: Okay, I won't. But I might rock these. Oh, yeah. I'm gonna need these to find you at school with your friends.

JAMIE: No.

HALEY: See, braces don't seem so bad after all this, huh?

JAMIE: Uh, over here, mom.

HALEY: What? Huh? Where'd you go? Jamie? Jamie? Jamie? Hmm.

CLINN'S HOUSE

Clay tries to open soup.

CLAY: Okay. Ah, yes! Suck it, soup. Oh.

FOOTBALL STADIUM

Troy and Nathan see Tony Gonzalez to practice.

TROY: Check it out. It's Tony Gonzalez.

NATHAN: Guy's been in the league 14 seasons. First-ballot hall of famer, and he's putting in extra work. Take a break.

(Tony comes in)

TONY: Hey. How you doing, rookie?

NATHAN: I think he's talking to you.

TROY: I-I'm good. How are you, sir? Uh, Tony.

TONY: I'm better than you. And better than you. How's your back?

NATHAN: Oh, it's fine. Thanks.

TONY: Man, you b*at up on the hawks last year.

NATHAN: Yeah, I kind of did. Well, hey, we didn't want to interrupt. Just wanted to say hi.

TONY: All right. Well, it's nice to meet you. And you... This is a great team. It's an unbelievable organization. And I know you got to handle your business, but I'm telling you, you should be here with us.

TROY: Well, I hope to be real soon. It was an honor to meet you.

TONY: It's good to meet you guys, too. I'm gonna get back to work.

TROY: Dude, that was Tony Gonzalez.

NATHAN: That's pretty cool, huh? He's bigger than I thought he would be.

TROY: Yeah, and he's only a tight end. You should see the defensive line.

NATHAN: I'm so glad I played basketball. Guys are big, dude.

TROY: And fast.

NATHAN: Yeah. I hope you're faster. Seriously, man, what the hell were you thinking?

CLUB TRIC

Chase and Mouth talks together.

CHASE: I don't know.

MOUTH: So, let me get this straight, you have a rock star and a famous actress fighting over you, and you're not sure you want to be with either one?

CHASE: It sounds worse when you say it.

MOUTH: They do know you're a bartender, right?

CHASE: Bar manager.

MOUTH: Bar manager cleaning the storage room.

CHASE: Bar manager who doesn't have to help you clean the storage room. The thing is, they both kind of screwed me up.

MOUTH: So maybe you should move on.

CHASE: Or...Maybe I'm lucky enough to get a second chance.

CEMETERY

Clay will be collected on the tomb of Will Bennett.

CLUB TRIC

Julian makes documentary about Mouth.

JULIAN: Okay. So you were in Omaha. You had career momentum, and then you decide to come home. Why?

MOUTH: I had a job here... And a girl.

JULIAN: Then what happened?

MOUTH: Well, I guess the heroic thing to say is that I took a stand for what I thought was right. But the truth is... I think I took what I had for granted. All of it. I miss Millicent. And I told her that we were just hanging out, but when I saw her leave with that guy on Halloween, I thought, "that guy's leaving with my girl."

Chase and Mouth talk about this.

CHASE: You should tell her that. She likes you.

MOUTH: Yeah.

CHASE: What you got there?

MOUTH: Really good Tequila.

CHASE: Guess what I got.

BRULIAN'S HOUSE

Brooke joins Julian in his office.

JULIAN: Thanks.

BROOKE: Look how happy she is.

JULIAN: Both of us. At least that day. How's my girl?

BROOKE: Feeling a little untethered and disconnected.

JULIAN: I'll bet. I'd be worried if you didn't. Come here. So, I've been thinking about this whole "being happy" thing, especially since I've been doing this documentary. And I feel like people get lost when they think of happiness as a destination.

BROOKE: Like how do you mean?

JULIAN: Well, we're always thinking that someday we'll be happy. You know, we'll get that car or that job or that person in our lives that'll fix everything. But happiness is a mood, and it's a condition, not a destination. It's like being tired or hungry. It's not permanent. It comes and goes, and that's okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they'd find happiness a lot more often.

BROOKE: So, you think it's okay to be a little miserable every now and then...Even when you have great things in your life?

JULIAN: Is it okay to be a little hungry now and then?

BROOKE: Happiness is a mood, not a destination. I like that.

JULIAN: Well, for whatever it's worth, you make me incredibly happy, Brooke Davis. But we all struggle sometimes, you know?

RED BEDROOM RECORDS

Mia talks to Erin.

MIA: That's nice. You're Erin, right? I'm Mia.

ERIN: Hi, Mia. I love your music.

MIA: Thanks. I love yours.

ERIN: I hope you don't mind. The piano looked a little lonely.

MIA: I don't mind at all. Actually, it reminds me of a day a long time ago that Haley found me playing piano. And the rest has been life-changing in a really good way.

ERIN: How is she -- Haley? As a person, I mean.

MIA: Amazing... And caring... And strong-willed.

ERIN: Stubborn.

MIA: Like all of us. She really is one of the good ones.

ERIN: I want to believe that. But my songs are my life, you know? They're all I've got. To trust somebody with my music is to trust them with everything I have in the world.

MIA: Yeah. Haley understands that. We both do. Believe me. But if you decide we're not the right home for you, just know that your songs are good... And you're good, Erin. I remember what it was like to hear that, how important it was.

ERIN: It's everything.

MIA: Yeah, I know.

CIMETERY

Clay talks to Will.

CLAY: So, rehab sucks. And my right arm is still pretty much useless. Sometimes I just get so frustrated. And then I saw your picture. And I thought that if things were the other way around...I would be so pissed off at you for spending your days being bitter about this. So I'm not gonna do that. And I know that every day I'm alive is a day I have because of you. So I just wanted to say thank you. I'll do my best to earn this.

FOOTBALL STADIUM

Nathan talks with Troy.

NATHAN: You have to earn it. And last year, when my contract was up, it was hard to know what to do. And with negotiations being so public, it was easy to compare myself to what other guys were getting or had gotten. And then one day I found myself getting bitter about it because my signing bonus wasn't high enough or they'd only give me two years instead of three. I mean, we're athletes. You know, we're competitive. We want to be the best and have the most and win. But then I asked myself a real simple question, when you were a kid, what was your dream? What was your dream, Troy?

TROY: I wanted to be a power ranger. And I wanted to play football. I wanted to be a quarterback in the NFL.

NATHAN: And did that dream have anything to do with escalators or the highest signing bonus in league history?

TROY: No.

NATHAN: You're here, Troy. And the money is more money than you probably ever dreamed of. But, hey, if you think you're worth more, there's only one place to prove that, and it's down there every Sunday. You can't prove it from up here. You have to earn it.

TROY: Do you think it's a good deal, Nate?

NATHAN: I do.

TROY: Okay.

NATHAN: That was a good speech, wasn't it?

TROY: It was. The truth is, you ask any kid what their favorite time of year is, and they're gonna say Christmas or summer. For me, it was always the fall, because that meant football was back. This was the first time since I was 7 years old that the leaves changed color, the teams took the field, and I didn't. I want to play football. That was my dream when I was 7 years old, and it still is. I miss it.

NATHAN: I know the feeling.

NALEY'S HOUSE

Julian makes documentary about Nathan.

JULIAN: Athletes have a long history of overstaying their professional welcome. Why is it so hard to walk away from the game?

NATHAN: I-I can't really speak for anyone else, but for me, I'm only in my 20s. And I have to give up the thing that I love to do and the one thing on earth that I feel like I was born to do. And some guys, they, uh, they miss the lifestyle, you know, the travel and the celebrity. But none of that stuff ever really mattered to me.

JULIAN: What did matter?

NATHAN: The rhythm of the game, the competition, the self-accomplishment. And I wonder if I'll ever find that adrenaline or that feeling of self-worth in something else. And I wonder who I'll be if I can't.

CLOAKROOM OF FOOTBALL STADIUM

Nathan talks with Tony.

TONY: You miss it, huh?

NATHAN: Every day.

TONY: Man, but you did it. You took it as far as it can go.

NATHAN: Said the man in his 14th season.

TONY: Yeah, the man in his 14th season who doesn't want to leave without a championship.

NATHAN: I can respect that.

TONY: So, I hear the rookie's gonna sign his deal.

NATHAN: Yeah, I suppose he's got a little bit of an uphill battle ahead of him.

TONY: Nah. He'll be all right. And so will his Agent. Good luck to you, Nate.

NATHAN: Thanks. You too. Hey, Tony. I hope you get that ring.

TONY: Me too. A guy can't play forever. Take care.

CLUB TRIC

Chase and Mouth drink vodka.

CHASE: Did I mention Alex's smile? Alex has an astounding smile.

MOUTH: Advantage, Alex.

CHASE: But Mia is so kind. Like, insanely kind. Drink that.

MOUTH: Advantage, Mia?

CHASE: This is t*rture.

MOUTH: Especially considering how much you have left to do to clean this place up.

CHASE: Nice try. Go back to work.

MOUTH: Damn it.

BRULIAN'S HOUSE

Brooke wants to talk with Sylvia.

BROOKE: Sylvia, can I talk to you?

SYLVIA: Yes. I'm just putting back your old hand towels.

BROOKE: I want to apologize for the way that I spoke to you this morning. I am upset about losing my company, and I took it out on you, and I'm sorry. It wasn't fair.

SYLVIA: Well, I appreciate that. I assume that you haven't changed your mind about wanting my help with the wedding?

BROOKE: I haven't changed my mind about taking your money, no. It is a lovely gesture, but...

SYLVIA: But you want what you want. And I understand.

BROOKE: I love your son. And I know that the two of you have always been very close, so I know that the great qualities that I see in him and the things that I love about him came from you. You have done an incredible job.

SYLVIA: Yeah. Well, I will always be proud of Julian. Just like I'm sure your mother's proud of you.

BROOKE: I don't know about that one.

SYLVIA: How could she not be? You are a smart, strong, successful, beautiful woman.

BROOKE: Thank you.

SYLVIA: You simply have poor taste in hand towels, don't you?

BROOKE: Yes. You're right. I do.

SYLVIA: I'm kidding.

BROOKE: That is not fair.

SYLVIA: Well, you called me old.

BROOKE: I'm sorry.

SYLVIA: Get over here. It's all right. It wasn't even the worst part of my day.

BROOKE: Why? What happened?

SYLVIA: Some jackass hit me with a water balloon. Can you believe that? Oh.

BROOKE: What is wrong with people?

SYLVIA: I don't know.

BROOKE: Awful.

SYLVIA: Yeah.

NALEY'S HOUSE

Erin stops by meet Haley.

HALEY: I really appreciate you stopping by. Um, can I get you some wine or coffee or...

ERIN: How about a pint?

HALEY: Ah, Irish musician. Of course. I should have known.

ERIN: Cheers. Your house is so big. It's really nice.

HALEY: Thanks.

ERIN: I assume you didn't buy it this way?

HALEY: Uh...No. That was all me. I was going through some things.

ERIN: Wow. Are you sure you're qualified to work at a crisis center?

HALEY: I don't know about qualified, but, um, I've definitely been there. My mom passed away recently. And, um...She was pretty much my inspiration. So I kind of lost it. I felt like the world had let me down and God had let me down, and obviously, as you can see, one night, I thought music had let me down. And then eventually one day I wound up on the other end of a phone call with a girl that sounded a lot like me. So, yeah, it's a big house, but we're not that different.

ERIN: What turned it around for you? Can you tell me that?

HALEY: Just a lot of little things, stillness, the right song at the right time. This is probably not what you want to hear.

ERIN: The truth's always worth hearing.

HALEY: Yeah, it is. Just so you know, I hear the truth in your music. I do. I hear hope, and I hear a woman whose life can be anything she wants it to be.

ERIN: You hear all that?

HALEY: I do.

ERIN: You're good.

FOOTBALL STADIUM

Troy comes to talk with Nathan.

TROY: You're good. They told me it's done.

NATHAN: It is. You're officially in the NFL. How's it feel to be rich?

TROY: You tell me. I signed that for you.

NATHAN: Ah, thank you. You ruined a perfectly good football, though.

TROY: Uh, but, but seriously, thank you for your counsel and your clarity and all of it.

NATHAN: You're welcome. Now, you go play the game like you dreamed of when you were a kid and appreciate it. It won't last forever. Go get them. Hey, Jameson. How's it feel to be an Atlanta Falcon?

TROY: Like a dream come true.

NATHAN: It is.

CLINN'S HOUSE

Julian makes documentary about Clay.

JULIAN: So there's a theme of starting over that's running through all these interviews. But you're really starting over.

CLAY: Yeah. And I have to admit that it's been a struggle.

JULIAN: So, would you say this is the hardest thing you've ever had to face?

CLAY: Without a doubt. You know, but then I think that if I didn't help him, who will?

JULIAN: Uh, I'm sorry. Help who?

CLAY: Oh. You meant -- you meant the part about me getting sh*t. I thought that you were talking about Nathan becoming an Agent. 'Cause honestly, that's been about as easy as teaching a monkey how to read.

AIRPORT

Clay comes to recover Nathan.

CLAY: You sexy bastard.

NATHAN: Piece of cake.

CLAY: Yeah?

NATHAN: No. I need a drink.

CLAY: Done. I'm proud of you, buddy.

NATHAN: I still got a lot to learn. Ahh. Thank you, man. I mean it.

CLAY: Yeah.

NATHAN: What is this?

CLAY: Electric can opener.

CLUB TRIC

Mouth is calling, Chase comes in.

MOUTH(at phone): Oh, okay. Oh, of course. Hey, thanks anyway.

CHASE: You all right?

MOUTH: Yeah. It was a buddy of mine from the tv station. He was trying to get me back in there.

CHASE: And?

MOUTH: It's not gonna happen.

CHASE: I'm sorry, man.

MOUTH: Thanks. Hey, check it out.

CHASE: Dude. Strong.

MOUTH: I know, right? I'll see you tomorrow.

Julian makes documentary about Mouth.

MOUTH: Do I wish I was doing better? Yeah. But I'm not alone in that. A lot of people are struggling right now. All I can do is just keep trying, you know? Get up, work hard, pay the bills, hope for something better. I think there's a nobility in that. That woman or man who's waiting for the bus after a long day's work...The parents who come home tired and still find time for their kids that's who I'm rooting for. That's who I respect.

Julian makes documentary about Chase.

CHASE: Alex is smart and talented and beautiful. And Mia is smart and talented and beautiful. And if I had to choose...Right now, I'd choose...

JULIAN: Oh, wait. Sorry. I got to reload.

JAMIE'S SCHOOL

Jamie joins Madison.

MADISON: Hi, Jamie.

JAMIE: Hi.

MADISON: Did you get braces?
