-Haley: hey, does anybody know anything about this place we’re going to?

-Peyton: All Rachel said is that it’s some kind of cabin.

-Brooke: Does Rachel really have to come? Can’t we just leave her?

-Haley: Who’s Pete?

-Bevin: Fall Out Boy.

-Brooke: He’s Peyton’s imaginary friend.

-Peyton: Brooke, he’s not imaginary. You saw us together at the concert.

-Bevin: Skills, we are only gonna be gone for two nights. What is in that thing?

-Brooke: I don’t know. Maybe he’s like Tony Soprano. That would explain her personality.

-Lucas: Look, Rachel did a very nice thing by inviting us here. Maybe this would be a good weekend to take it easy on her.

-Brooke: But isn’t the point of this weekend for us to get back to normal? If Rachel and I aren’t back at each other’s throats, it’s like the t*rrorists have won. (Lucas is laughing). Look at you.

-Lucas: What?

-Brooke: Your smile, I’ve missed it.

-Lucas (leave to his pocket a letter) : Well, then, here’s something to make you smile. My latest letter.

-Mouth: Like I said, I’m good.

-Rachel: So, that’s how it’s gonna be?

-Mouth: You don’t think I know what this weekend’s about? This is about you trying to relieve your guilt over the time capsule.

-Lucas: Haley’s ring?

-Nathan: Yeah, I swiped it a couple of minutes ago. I need you to hold onto that for me.

-Lucas: Why?

-Nathan: Because I’m gonna ask her to marry me.

-Lucas: Okay, I’m sorry, but didn’t you already do that?

-Nathan: Yeah, but I was thinking about Keith and your mom and how they never got a chance to stand in front of their family and friends and tell everybody how they feel, you know?

-Lucas: Yeah.

-Nathan: And Haley and I never did that, either. So, now that we’re back together, I wanna do things the right way.

-Mouth: Dude, these things are awesome! I just sacred the hell out of some cows!

-Haley: Is that really important right now?

-Peyton: Okay, Haley. Calm down. Just stop. Hey, stop! We’ll find it. Think. Where did you have it last?

-Haley: I don’t know. I had it in the car rode on the way over here. And then I just started unpacking, and then I…I think…(Haley’s running to the bathroom). I think…I think I actually took it off when I washed my hands. Oh, my god, If I washed it down the drain Nathan is gonna freak out.

-Peyton: Haley, chill, okay? Even if it is down the drain, we can still get it back. Do you have a pipe wrench?

-Rachel: Oh, sure, in my purse next to the belt sander.

-Brooke: Did he say when he was coming back? ‘Cause I need him for something.

-Bevin: Anything we can help you with?

-Brooke: No, this definitely requires Lucas. I’m gonna take a nap before dinner. Bye.

Brooke’s running to house.

-Bevin: She was horny, right?

-Skills: Oh, yeah, definitely.

-Bevin: You ready to get in?

-Skills: Maybe for a couple of minutes. You know, the Hornets about to play the Rockets, and I really want to check out that big screen.

-Rachel: Brooke, I promise. I won’t say a thing.

Haley comes.

-Rachel: Haley, find your ring?

-Haley: Yeah, I know. Thanks, Brooke.

-Peyton: The bathroom’s a mess. (She’s trying to open a drawer). Are there any extra paper towels in here? Why is it locked?

-Rachel: Sorry, this cabinet’s off-limits.

-Brooke: Why? What’s in there?

-Rachel: It’s just private. You know how people don’t like private things revealed. -Peyton: So, look at the time. Hey, the guys from Sunkist called. They’re hosting this club night tonight not too far from here, so I thought maybe we could go?

-Lucas: Me, too. Apparently, not everyone else it.

-Brooke: I’ll be right back.

Brooke gets to Peyton who she’s alone.

-Peyton: If you’re coming over here to say “I told you so”, save your breath.

-Peyton: Okay, this whole finger quotes thing is starting to piss me off.

-Mouth: I’m sorry, Peyton.

-Peyton: It’s not your fault, Mouth.

-Mouth: No, not for that. I mean about what happened to you. You know, with your leg.

-Peyton: Well, that’s really sweet, Mouth, but it’s not necessary. Sometimes I forget to remember how really wonderful life can be. So, I’m trying not to do that anymore.

-Pete: I said I’d be here.

-Brooke: You guys are so adorable.

-Rachel: Hey, look, Pete from Fall Out boy. I’m Rachel.

Lucas came.

-Pete: Do we like her?

-Lucas: Pete from Fall Out boy. You showed.

-Pete: Didn’t anyone think I was going to show?

Brooke and Lucas go outside.

-Brooke: Okay, what do you wanna show me? It’s freezing out here.

-Lucas: This.

-Brooke: Are you proposing to me? Lucas, this is really Naley…

-Lucas: No, no, no. This is Haley’s ring. Nathan stole it. I’m just holding onto it till he proposes to her again tomorrow.

-Haley: Oh, my God! Thank you! Where did you find this?

-Lucas: It was on the thing next to the other thing.

-Bevin: So, that’s an oak tree. And over there, that’s a slippery elm. Or to use its Latin name, Ulmus rubra Muhl.

-Skills: Right, that’s great, baby. Look we been walking for a while now. Shouldn’t we drop bread crumbs or something?

-Bevin: Hey, look, badger droppings!

-Skills: Yeah, baby. Look, I’m not looking at that.

-Bevin: Skills, relax. I have an awesome sense of direction. I always know where north is.

-Skills: Right. North, huh?

-Bevin: Yep.

-Skills: Okay, I got a little experiment. Close you eyes. Now, open your eyes. Now, point north again.

-Bevin: There. North. Ha!

-Skills: Before, when you pointed, you pointed that way.

-Bevin: Uh-uh.

-Skills: Yes, you did. Before, when you pointed, those berries was on your left-hand side. Now which side they on?

-Bevin: Skills, I said I’m good with directions. Not this whole left-right thingy.

-Skills: Great, so we lost. I don’t know I let you talk me into this, man.

CUT TO:

[Rachel’s house-Day]

Peyton and Pete went to the swing.

-Peyton: So thanks for going on this walk with me, Pete. The doctor says it’s good therapy for my leg.

-Pete: No problem. You know, your friends are pretty cool, too.

-Peyton: Oh, God, well, you should’ve heard all the crap they were giving me before you showed up. I was starting to get scared you were gonna be my Snuffleupagus.

-Pete: Your Snuffa…What?

-Peyton: My Snuffleupagus. You watched Sesame Street, right?

-Pete: No, I was kind of more like, you know, like a Transformers kind of kid.

-Peyton: Oh, no, okay, well…Snuffleupagus is like this big, hairy, mopey, elephant thing that only Big Bird could see. And so, whenever he talked about him to other people, everyone thought Big Bird was just making him up.

-Pete: Right, so Snuffleupagus would just show up and start cooking everybody breakfast…

-Peyton: No! Okay, maybe something like that. So this is like…I don’t know, I just never would’ve pictured this. You know, a famous rock star showing up in the middle of nowhere to hang out with a girl barely knows.

-Pete: Actually, that’s not true.

-Peyton: What is?

-Pete: I mean, even though we just met each other, I feel like know you pretty well.

-Peyton: How do you figure?

-Pete: Well, I listened to your podcasts and your artwork, your dad, everything with Ellie, that Jake guy…

-Peyton: Okay, well, if you’re gonna put it that way, I guess I probably know you pretty well, too. I mean, I know all the lyrics to your songs. Like, “My pen is the barrel of the g*n. Remind me which side you should be on.”

-Pete: So a hot girl quotes me to me. Is that wrong if that turns me on?

-Peyton: Maybe a little. Since we know each other so well, I guess it’s okay if I do this.

Peyton kisses Pete.

-Pete: You know what? You’re right. This walk was a good idea.

CUT TO:

[On the lake-Day]

Nathan and Lucas are fishing for.

-Lucas: Okay, so it was a bad idea.

-Nathan: Why would you even show the ring to Brooke?

-Lucas: I don’t know. I was excited. You know how Brooke likes these kind of things.

-Nathan: The proposal’s ruined now, you know.

-Lucas: I mean, you don’t need a ring to propose. You know, you could just adjust your plan a little bit.

-Nathan: ‘Cause that’s all Haley and I ever do. Ever since we got married, nothing’s gone the way we planned it. Something always gets in the way. Like music or High Flyers or Chris, Dan.

-Lucas: But isn’t that just, well, life? I mean everything doesn’t have to be perfect.

-Nathan: No, but this does. Why couldn’t this one moment just work out the way I planned it? Just once, you know, for Haley.

-Lucas: You know what? You’re right.

-Nathan: What are you doing?-Lucas: We’re going to go get that ring back. You’re right, Nate. You and Haley deserve that perfect moment at least one in your life.

CUT TO:

[In the forest-Day]

Skills and Bevin are always lost.

-Bevin: Skills, what are you doing? We have to keep walking.

-Skills: For what? So we could get more lost than we already are? Look, baby, let’s just stay put. Once it gets dark, somebody will come looking for us.

-Bevin: Okay, I’ll make a campfire.

-Skills: With what?

-Bevin: Girl Scout motto, “Always come prepared”.

-Skills: Okay.

-Bevin: The fire will keep us warm and attract the rescue helicopters.

-Skills: Look at my baby. Look at the little Scout.

-Bevin: These matches are pretty old, but they still work!

-Skills: Okay, cool. Let’s see the fire. What?

-Bevin: That was the last one.

CUT TO:

[Rachel’s home-Day]

Brooke is reading a book and Lucas came.

-Brooke: So how mad was Nathan?

-Lucas: Not thrilled. But I told him I’d get the ring back.

-Brooke: Great, so get it back.

-Lucas: How? There’s no way Haley’s gonna let that ring out of her sight now.

-Brooke: Lucas, there’s always a way.

Brooke comes in the hot tub with Haley.

-Haley: Hey.

-Brooke: Hey.

-Haley: Cute.

-Brooke: You’re not seriously wearing your ring in here, are you?

-Haley: Yeah, why?

-Bevin: Where’s that light coming from?

-Skills: Come on.

-Lucas: Skills! Bevin! Skills! Bevin!

-Skills: Man, that is Lucas!

-Lucas: You guys coming dinner or what?

-Skills: You mean to tell me that house has been there the whole damn time?

-Bevin: I told you I knew where north was.

CUT TO:

[Rachel’s House-Night]

Girls are laughing.

-Haley: Yeah, I guess between me losing my ring and Bevin and Skills losing themselves, it has been a pretty eventful weekend.

-Lucas: Brooke’s working on it.

-Nathan: Yeah, well, you’re running out of time.

The group are in the living room.

-Bevin: Hey, guys, I got a idea. How about we play “I never”?

-Peyton: Oh, yeah, that always turns out great. Catfight with Nikki anyone?

-Bevin: Come on, it’ll be fun. I’ll start. I never had a gold record.

Pete’s drinking.

-Haley: Come on, that’s easy.

-Brooke: Drink up!

-Mouth: Okay, Pete, you do one.

-Rachel: Come on, Brooke, drink up.

Brooke’s drinking and Bevin too.

-Skills: Wait, hold on, Bevin. Why you drinking? You even know what that means?

-Bevin: I Brooke myself all the time.

-Skills: If she keep on talking like that, I might have to Brooke myself.

-Brooke Okay! Can we please stop calling it that?

Nathan go away.

-Brooke: That is not attractive on you. Stop it!

CUT TO:

[Outside of Rachel’s house-Night]

-Lucas: Yo, you okay?

-Nathan: Yeah. I was just trying to think of an “I never”, and I realized I never spent enough time with him, you know? Keith. But it’s weird. Even though he’s gone, a part of me just still feels really happy for the time that I did have.

-Lucas: Well, I think that’s what this weekend’s about. You know, not regretting our pasts, but appreciating everything that’s we’ve got now. Great friends, great memories…And you know what? I think it’s exactly how he would want it.

CUT TO:

[In the kitchen-Night]

Rachel clean the dishes.

-Rachel: Hey, Brooke. You here to give me a hand? Sorry. It just slipped out.

-Brooke: Yeah.

-Lucas: Any idea?

-Brooke: No, you? Wait a second.

-Lucas: You got something?

-Brooke: Yeah, but it’s not subtle.

Brooke stands up and spills her cup on Haley.

-Brooke: Oh, Haley. I’m so sorry. I tripped over the table. Here, here, let me…Let me soak this in club soda. You should go take a shower or…

-Haley: That’s not a bad idea, actually.

-Brooke: I’m sorry.

-Haley: It’s okay.

-Brooke: God, it’s terrible. This is really bad. Take care of that. I’ll be right back.

Brooke comes in the bathroom and she looks for Haley’s ring. She’s taking the ring and knocks down Haley’s watch in the toilet.

Pete and Peyton are at the Peyton’s bedroom door.

-Pete: You know, I had a really great time today, Peyton.

-Peyton: Shut up! Stop it!

-Pete: So what about you, Peyton? You got any tats?

-Peyton: I just have this dark angel between my shoulder blades.

-Pete: Right.

-Peyton: Speaking of which, how’s this supposed to work, anyway?

-Pete: What, me and you?

-Peyton: Yeah. I mean, we’re just in two totally different places. You’re this rock star. I’m just trying to pass AP English.

-Pete: I mean, I feel like answer’s to not overthink things. You know, we’re just having fun, right?

-Peyton: Yeah, sure.

-Pete: And then we’ll figure it out.

-Peyton: So, that’s your solution? We’ll just figure it out?

-Pete: Why not? Too easy?

-Mouth: Whatever it is, can you figure it out soon? I’m trying to sleep up here.

-Peyton: Mouth, how long have you been up there?

-Mouth: Since you guys came in and started making out.

-Peyton: Oh, my God! I’m so sorry. Mouth! Did you know he was up there?

-Pete: Totally. I thought you were cool with it.

-Peyton: Oh, God.

[In the bathroom-Night]

Haley go out of the shower. She saw her watch is in the toilet.

-Haley: Oh, crap.

CUT TO:

[In the hot tub-Night]

Rachel is in the hot tub and Mouth came.

-Rachel: Hey.

-Mouth: Hey. You’ve done a great thing, Rachel. Having everyone here like this.

-Rachel: Even if it’s all about me relieving my guilt?

-Mouth: I was wrong. People are healing. Lucas, Haley. Peyton’s really healing with that Pete guy.

-Rachel: Still doesn’t make up for me opening the time capsule.

-Mouth: You know, I never asked why you did it.

-Rachel: Mouth…

-Mouth: You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to. I just…I just want to understand why you opened the time capsule.

-Rachel: I don’t know. To mess with people, I guess. I thought if I opened it, it would reveal everyone for who they really were. You know, just, like, throw a wrench in the works and watch them squirm. I didn’t want anyone to die. I’m gonna tell everybody that I did it.

-Mouth: No, you shouldn’t.

-Rachel: And why not? At least then they’d have someone to blame.

-Mouth: Rachel, there was so much more going on with Jimmy than anyone knew, more than you could’ve known.

-Rachel: But the time capsule set him off.

-Mouth: And if it hadn’t, something else would have. I looked at the capsule, too, Rachel. And it was wrong. But people are healing now. Peyton and Lucas, the people who were hurt the most. It won’t do them any good to take them back there again. I say you bury it and keep it buried, just like the time capsule should’ve been.

-Rachel: What about you? Can you forgive me?

-Mouth: Only if you can forgive me. So, you want some company in there or…

-Rachel: I think I can probably squeeze you in.

Rachel pulls Mouth and he’s fall into the water.

-Rachel: I’m sorry, Mouth. I wish I could take it all back.

-Mouth: Yeah, me, too.

Mouth take it her in his arms.

CUT TO:

[In the living room-Night]

Brooke is in Lucas’ arms.

-Brooke: What’s that scar there?

-Lucas: From when I was six. When I went on this camping trip with my mom and Keith. It was the first time I’d ever gone fishing. And I accidentally hooked myself right through the thumb.

-Brooke: Ouch.

-Lucas: Yeah. Hurt like hell. Well, I started crying. So, Keith takes out his pocketknife and cuts his thumb, too, and said if we rubbed them together that we’d be “blood brothers”.

-Brooke: That’s sweet.

-Lucas: Well, mow whenever I look at that scar, I can remember that time and feel good. But what about my mom? You know, you said that everybody will heal eventually. But what if she doesn’t? I mean, she’s just so angry right now and tortured.

-Brooke: I know. But you’ve done everything you can. Everything, right? And whether she shows it or not, in her heart, your mom knows that you’re there for her. Promise.

-Lucas: So what do I do now?

-Brooke: I don’t know. Have faith that she’s gonna get better.

CUT TO:

[In town hall-Dan’s office-Night]

Karen arrived with a box.

-Karen: I was going though Keith’s belongings, and I found some things that I thought you should have. Things that might mean something to you. The adoption papers that Keith filed to father the child that you abandoned. Invitation to Keith’s wedding. His wedding to Julia, that is, or Emily or whatever the hell her name was. The wedding to the hooker that you hired to seduce your brother. Keith Scott Motors. He loved that place. At least, until you swindled him out of it.

-Dan: Karen!

-Karen: You k*lled him. You may not have pulled the trigger, but you let him go into that school.

-Dan: Karen, I had no idea Keith was going inside. I was trying to keep everyone safe. I had responsibility as the mayor.

-Karen: Responsibility as the mayor! What about your responsibility as a brother? What about your responsibility as a father? You had two sons in there, Dan! Where were you for them? While Keith was lying there, dying, where were you? I wish it had been you who d*ed I that school.

-Lucas: You look happy.

-Peyton: You, too.

Nathan and Haley are on the pontoon.

-Haley: oh, man, this view is so beautiful from the dock.

-Nathan: Well, you know docks are kind of special for us. Remember the time Dan busted us for drinking?

-Haley: Don’t remind me. Although I have to say I did kind of enjoy throwing up on him.

-Nathan: So, I couldn’t help but notice you’ve your hands in you pockets all weekend. What’s that about?

-Haley: I guess I can’t really hide it from you. I lost my ring. Twice. And I’m really sorry. You’re probably just really disappointed in me.

-Nathan: You mean this ring?

-Haley: Yeah. Where did you find that?

-Nathan: I kind of stole it. Twice. Haley…

Nathan’s kneeling down.

-Haley: Whet are you doing?

-Nathan: Over the past year, I learned so much about life end love. And even if I could, I wouldn’t take back all the bad stuff that’s happened between us, because I brought us here. This moment, this river. Marry me, Haley. Marry me again in front of all our friends and our family.

-Haley: Always. Always and forever.

Haley kisses Nathan.

-Haley: Oh, Peyton, don’t worry. He’s just leaving on a rock concert tour. It’s nothing to be concerned about.

-Peyton You’re funny.

-Lucas: Brooke, let’s go!

-Brooke: Sorry, I’m coming.

-Rachel: So, any chance you’ll be riding home with me?

-Mouth: Forget it.

-Rachel: Get your ass in the car.

They’re going away.

-Lucas: (v.o) John Steinbeck once wrote, “Change comes like a little wind that ruffles the curtains at dawn, and it comes like the stealthy perfume of wildflowers hidden in the grass.”
