02x18 - Why Don't We Get Drunk?

Post by bunniefuu »

Long-distance relationship are hard.

What am I supposed to do now?

Marry me?

Do you really see yourself moving to Dallas?

We have to stop fooling ourselves.

Lavon Hayes, this...

Please don't say over.

I know that you left the bar last night with another woman.

You are too good for Wade anyway.

You're much better off without him.

Some things that you left at my place.

This doesn't mean that I forgive you, but with time, we'll figure out a way to move on.

Annabeth, Mayor Hayes is totally into it.

It doesn't matter.

There is no world in which I could pursue a relationship with the man Lemon once loved.

This is worth fighting for.

I know you got your girl code, but I will wait.

(Screaming, laughing)



What... is... happening?

(Gasps)

Little help?

(Screaming)

Hey, morning, doc.

Beer?

Give you the locals' price.

Of course you're involved.

Yeah, they just kind of showed up in the pond this morning.

Cute, huh?

And your immediate response was to sell alcohol to underage students?

No, that would wrong.

That's why I never asked them their age.

Oh, my God.

Lavon: Morning.

I see you're enjoying Lavon's Pond Party this Spring Break.

When did Bluebell become Daytona Beach?

When its mayor, that's me, sold a college tour company on the Gulf Coast's best-kept Spring Break secret.

I mean, why should Cancun, Panama city, South Padre get all the tourism, money, publicity?

Alcohol-related accidents, civil disturbances, vandalism, sex crimes?

Yeah, when you put it in that tone, anything can sound bad.

Oh, my God.

Zoe: Seriously, I can't be the only one who thinks this is ridiculous.

I mean, since when is it fun to get super drunk and vomit all over yourself?

I'm just glad I sent Magnolia to Bible camp this week.

Hopefully, the only body sh*t she does is the body of Christ with a grape juice chaser.

(Brick chuckling)

Oh, good, Brick, you finally hired a hot nurse.

(Laughing) (Sighs)

You're still in town?

Don't worry, I'll be out of your hair soon enough.

Yep, just landed a surgical fellowship at Mount Sinai.

It's kind of a big deal.

But, hey, I'll be here for three more days, if you, uh, want to get all up in this.

That reminds me, we need to check our stock of antibiotics.

(Phone ringing)

Uh, I will get that.

Yeah, I figured you'd be in here.

I mean, since all the fun is being had out there.

Oh, really?

And what's fun?

The heat stroke, dehydration, alcohol poisoning?

That's fun.

You never did a Spring Break.

No, I used that time off to study.

And what good did that ever do you?

Hey, doc, I'm here for my appointment.

And there's your answer.

Wally, I'll be right with you.

All right.

Okay, so you're just coming off what seemed like a fairly painful breakup.

You could definitely stand to cut loose a little, so I'm going to make you an offer.

(Scoffs)

Spring Break, here, with me.

Clearly, you have already started drinking.

No, no and no.

Mayor Hayes.

Yeah.

Mayor Hayes, I cannot properly police this town without modern crime-fighting technology.

Well, we bought you a taser.

Where is it?

The Landry kid used up all the batteries trying to bring his cat back to life.

Man: Hey, hey, hey!

Hey, hey... you two.

Unless you're giving birth, right here, right now, in town square, nobody wants to see your privates.

Lavon: Sergeant Jeffries what?!

We-we talked about courtesy now.

(Scoffs)

Bill...

Oh. Sergeant: Hey, hey, get back over here.

Bill: Sergeant jeffries...

Whoa, Annabeth... Annabeth.

Hey, hold up.

Oh.

Hey, Mr. Mayor.

This is quite a party you're throwing.

Oh, I know.

I half expect my parents to show up and ground me.

(Chuckling)

So, how are things?

Things are good.

With Lemon?

A lot better, thanks.

Good.

Well, maybe you and I can...

Lavon, Lemon and I... just became friends again.

She's barely forgiven me for being with you in the first place.

I... I can't risk our friendship.

Not right now.

I understand.

Enjoy your day.

Wally, the results of your stress assessment aren't great.

These numbers put you at serious risk for high blood pressure, blood cots, arrhythmia.

Well, it's that time of year at work.

What time is that?

Every damn minute every day.

I think that you need a break.

Cut back on your hours.

You know, take some time off.

Doc, can I be frank with you?

I mean, doctor-patient and all...

I'm thinking about selling the Rammer Jammer.

Wow, but you love that place.

I know, I do, it's my whole life.

But that's the problem.

I mean, between the wife and kids and business, and yeah...

You know what my biggest regret is?

Not having done enough I actually regretted.

Huh, interesting.

Now I feel like my window to live is closing.

Look at them kids out there.

I keep thinking, why do they get to have all the fun?

Yeah, why do they?



Hey, Wally, man, you serious?

My wife may k*ll me, but I want to live.

Now, if you're worried about your job, I'll put in a good word for you with whoever buys it.

Me. I want to buy it.

(Laughing)

That's a good one.

You had me going, though.

(Laughing)

Annabeth, I have an idea.

Listen, I know that this place is a hole, but, with some new wallpaper and table cloths and a chef that can actually cook, we could do something with it.

We?

Yeah, oh, no.

If you want to buy the Rammer Jammer, go ahead.

But it's an opportunity I'm willing to give up for the sake of our friendship.

Well, it doesn't matter anyway.

I don't know where I'd get the money, so...

Mm, Brick would give you the money.

Yeah, but then that would be him buying the Rammer Jammer, and having a say in everything.

You were right, Annabeth, it is time for me to do something on my own.

With your help, of course.

Of course.



Mayor Hayes.

Ruby.

You-you're not here, you're supposed to be in Dallas.

My grandfather's being a pain again.

Sheriff Bill's going to lock him up if I don't watch him for a few days.

Were you gonna call?

I just... that might be weird.

You know, kind of like this.

It seems crazy our not having a cup of coffee at least.

Yeah, I agree.

Coffee tomorrow.

Okay.

All right.

(Quietly): All right. Bye.

Woodwork, that's what I'm going to do.

Mm.

Make things.

Wood things.

You know who was a carpenter?

Jesus?

Larry Winicki.

Well, that is, till he cut off the last two fingers on both hands.

Then he looked like a T-Rex.

Oh, crap.

Jonah Breeland.

I thought I had successfully avoided that jerk.

Jonah, I love that guy.

Why?

Why does everyone love that guy?

He is a disingenuous womanizer who always gets what he wants.

That's what we love about him.

Wally, my man.

Jonah.

(Grunts)

George.

I'm not a fan of yours.

I'm sorry.

I can say that now.

Okay, you were always Lemon's favorite cousin, so I had to be nice, but, I'm not with Lemon anymore, so I can say that now.

I do not like you.

George, your words, they cut.

Not like knives, because you're really dull, but more like the soft teeth of some leaf-eating mammal.

Well, I do not have to care what you think because I do not like you.

(Laughing)

George has always been jealous... always!

George: Jeal... (Scoffs)

Jealous of what?

Eh, you've been stuck in the same relationship for countless years while I have enjoyed the company of Alabama's finest young ladies.

Oh, yeah, like I would want to enjoy the company of any woman stupid enough to fall for your transparent load of crap.

Huh? Huh?

Hey.

Hey, George.

Okay, so, you were right.

I have had a crappy couple of months.

And I am ready to erase those memories with some trashy new ones.

Zoe: Brick is on call tomorrow night, so I am free to par-tay.

Are you in?

Spring Breakology is on.

Okay, pick me up at the office at 7:00 and don't say Spring Breakology ever again.

Hm, funny...

She doesn't seem stupid.

(Car horn honks)

(Seagulls calling)

Hart of Dixie 02x18
Why Don't We Get Drunk
Original Air Date April 9, 2013

Oh, wow.

Fanny packs are back?

And to think, I just gave mine away.

Well, I know it's not a fashion statement, but it is cute.

I'm preparing for tonight.

I have snacks, water, first-aid kit.

Spring Break is gonna be my bitch.

Yeah, well, be careful, all right?

Guys can be real dogs at those things.

Just watch out.

Wait a minute, guys can be dogs?

That is so good to know.

If only I had a time machine to take me back six months.

Yeah, well, you're already going back to the '90s, so, you know, you can just make a little pit stop along the way.

Happy Spring Break, doc.

(Cheering)

Yes!

(Laughing): Yes!

Hello, Jonah.

How predictable that I would find you at foam wrestling.

Ah, just supporting the advancements Title 9 has given us, Tucker.

Yeah, listen.

Jonah, I just want to say that Zoe Hart is a good person, okay?

And she has been through a lot, lately, so the last thing she needs right now is a sleaze ball trying to take advantage of her.

Wow.

Does she have a mental impairment of some kind?

No, she does not.

Then I guess she's capable of making sound decisions.

So if she wants to play doctor with an actual doctor, that would be none of your business.



Crowd (In unison): 35... 36... 37... 38...

So, how's Dallas?

It's good, it's good.

I've... you know, I've made some really good friends, the job is great... the malls are amazing.

Ah, malls.

See, I knew there was something in Dallas you couldn't get here.

Uh...

(Chuckles)

What up, Spring Break?

Y'all ready to party?

Then come on, jump on and we'll ride on over to Fillmore, home of the $10,000 beer pong contest.

Now, come on.

(Cheering) Come on, now.

Come on.

No, no!

Pay no attention to the cowboy with the bullhorn.

Yeah, come on, just...

I'll help you up.

Take you to a real city.

Who is that?

Todd Gainey, Sr.

Mayor of Fillmore.

I should've known he'd try to hijack my Spring Break.

Lavon: Why is everybody getting on the truck?

I-I'm sorry, I got to go fix this.

W-wait. You know what, maybe... maybe I can help.

You know, my company sponsored a "Hands On A Hard Body" contest last month, down in Corpus Christi.

Huge hit.

I can't pull something like that together so quickly.

You can't, but I can.

For real?

Yeah.

Why?

B-b-but if you offering, I'm saying yeah.

You-you get that going, and...

I'll get Sheriff Bill to impound the truck.

Okay...

Okay.

(Laughs)



(Insects trilling, crickets chirping)

Jonah: All right, Hart.

Time to party.

Oh.

Okay, I just need a few minutes.

Brick should be on his way back.

All right.

(Phone rings)

This is Dr. Hart.

Hey, Zoe, it's, uh, it's George.

Hey, George.

Hey, look, um...

Uh, Brick and I, we went out fishing and on the way back, we got a flat tire.

Well, when will you be back?

I don't know, I mean, it could be a few hours.

A few hours?!

But I have Spring Break.

I know. I know.

I... I am so sorry.

But we will be back as soon as possible, all right?

All right.

Ah, classic, classic George Tucker.

What are you talking about?

He's sabotaging our date on purpose.

You know, he already warned me to stay away from you.

I-I guess that wasn't blatant enough.

No, he didn't.

Why would he do that?

Well, maybe he doesn't want me doing it with the...

The girl he left his fiancée at the altar for.

Well, you are so, so far off base.

And who ever said that you and I were gonna have sex?

Well, it was kind of implied.

George would not sabotage our date.

George is good.

George is... you are not.

The town of Bluebell, Mobile Bay's hot new Spring Break destination, is really turning up the heat this week with its new hard body contest, "Palms on a Pleasure Craft."

Well?

How'd it go?

Well, I brought your idea to the Belle Investors' Fund, and they were very enthusiastic.

They all contributed something.

Oh!

That's amazing.

How much did we raise?

Six hundred and forty-eight dollars!

Annabeth, raising your voice high like that doesn't make it sound like more.

I thought it might.

No.

Well.

And there's more bad news: Ruby Jeffries is in town.

What? Why?

For some reason, she's sponsoring a hands on a boat contest.

(Scoffs) It's crazy.

That thing is worth, like, $50,000.

Say what?

Okay, now, when I give the whistle, you must put one hand on the boat and keep at least one hand on the boat, the winner being the last person with one hand on the boat.

So, if there are no other contestants...

Oh! One more.

(Clears throat)

Well, Lemon Breeland.

This is one contest you might actually win.

I'm not in it.

Oh, I will win it.

And I thank you in advance for giving me the money to buy the Rammer Jammer.

Oh, you have got to be kidding me.

Hmm.

Are you sure that I need this?

Yes, because when you win, you will be on TV.

Ow! Annabeth!

You just mascara'd my eyeball.

(Lemon sighs)

Poor Lavon.

We should pray for his soul.

He is clearly weak-willed as far as the Jeffries Devil is concerned.

But we cannot let ourselves get distracted by her.

We have a contest to win.

You're right.

Absolutely right.

Mm-hmm.

So, who you doing it for?

Oh, um... me, I guess.

I guess I'm doing it for my dad, even though he's not here to see it.

Hell, he probably wouldn't even want me having a boat...

Since he d*ed at sea.

Oh.

Well, it's whatever.

You know, I just figured, if I win it... and, I mean, what are the chances of that?

I'd put his name right up there on the stern and I'd sail to all the places he never got to go.

Because he d*ed... trying to save the dolphins.

Wade Kinsella, what are you talking about?

Your daddy is alive and drunk, right here in this town... are you trying to trick this poor girl into letting you win the contest?

No!

No, of course not.

I'm trying to trick her into sleeping with me.

Whoa!

Hello. Zinger.

(Laughs) Yeah.

Judges?

(Grunts)

You think you got what it takes?

Come on.

Did you see that?

Wade might actually have half a brain in his head.

We need to start culling the herd, too.

Zoe: Now, you're gonna keep that on for the next two weeks.

Oh, thank God.

That was the third idiot to jump from the Whippoorwill Blossom balcony into the pool.

Well, the Whippoorwill Blossom...

Doesn't even have a pool?

Yeah, I realize that.

But you're back now, so you can handle it from here.

Well, ah... not exactly.

Oh, no.

Yeah, yes, I hurt the darn thing trying to loosen a lug nut, and...

Why did you even go fishing today?

You knew how busy we'd be.

Well, I thought we'd be back in a couple hours.

You want to blame someone, it was George who insisted we take the scenic route home.

That's how I got lost and popped a tire to begin with.

It was George's idea?

Yeah, h-he said something about migrating ducks and how we couldn't afford to miss them.

Stay here.

Take this acetone into the exam room.

I'll be right back; I have a lawyer to k*ll.

Lemon: It's an affliction, is what it is.

Sometimes I just get so competitive that something clicks inside of me and I'm just not myself anymore.

I mean, that poor girl just... wanted to win prom queen.

She does walk straight upright again, and she was even in People magazine as one of those people who pressed on even after a horrible accident.

Well, well, well.

Look like we're the only ones left.

And you are sorely outmatched.

Why do you even want the Rammer Jammer, Lemon?

Buying that bar is my dream.

Well, too bad, it's my dream, too.

Hey, you two.

I just wanted to say thanks for trimming the fat around here.

Where'd you come from?

Oh...

I like to lie in wait.

Kind of like a panther.

(Throaty hiss)

(Gasps) Yeah, I do about 20 events on the hard body circuit every year.

Yeah, you think you're tired now, wait another 36 hours.

Your ankles swell, you sweat hot and cold...

But it's when the hallucinations kick in that you need to start to worry.

'Cause at that point, you are just one thin step away from brain damage.

Uh... hallucinations?

When you start to hallucinate... bail.

Otherwise your friends will be playing "Hands On A Casket."

Yours.

Yeah, I got that.

Great.

So, who wants to sing a song?

♪ Oh... ♪
♪ 99 bottles ♪
♪ of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer ♪

(Wade joins in): ♪ You take one down, you pass it around ♪
♪ 98 bottles of beer on the wall ♪

George?

Hey, Zoe.

Did you sabotage my date with Jonah?

What?

No.

Did you tell Brick to take the scenic route back from fishing?

And did you tell Jonah not to take me to Spring Break?

Yeah, George, did you?

Hey, Tansy.

Um...

Well, uh...

Yeah.

I did.

Why would you do that? Are you jealous?

That better not be it, 'cause we have been over that.

Yes, we have been over that.

Ba-baby, we have been over that.

I know.

I was here.

Okay, so, uh, no, not jealous.

Now, could it seem that these two events are related?

Zoe & Tansy: Yes.

Yes.

But... they aren't.

Okay? It was Brick's fault.

He was driving the car.

How could I predict that he would hit a tree trunk, and then get a flat tire, and then hurt his hand trying to fix it?

I'm not Nostradamus.

(Chuckles)

(Clears throat)

But, yes, as far as Jonah goes, I don't like the guy.

Okay, Zoe?

He's a player.

And he takes advantage of women, so, as a friend...

Whoa.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe I was taking advantage of him?

I don't know if you noticed, but I haven't been having the best time lately.

And if I wanted to cheer myself up with a little Spring Break fun, I am perfectly entitled to.

With or without your judgment.

So, now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to call my date, who hopefully will still talk to me after I defended you and called him a jerk.
Hello?

Oh, hey.

Hey, Brick, I just, uh... figured I'd bring your stuff back.

What... what you got there?

Oh, more of Shelby's stuff.

Uh, girl loves her hair products.

Hmm.

Well, it looks, uh, looks a little heavy.

Didn't think you'd be able to lift that after you smashed your hand up yesterday.

Oh! Oh, uh, yeah, right.

Well, you know, uh...

Well, the swelling went down, I took the splint off, and by golly, good as new.

Oh. And thank you for, uh, bringing all that stuff.

Yeah.

Of course, of course.

Uh, I should get... I should get going.

Um... yeah.

Hey, you know what, Brick?

Uh, I'm sorry.

If you are feeling better, maybe, uh... maybe you could give Zoe a call and cover the office for her so she could go to Spring Break.

Yeah, sure, uh, right...

I'll give her a call right away.

Okay.

All right.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Uh, I'll see you around, Brick.

Yeah.

Woman: Good morning, Mobile Bay!

It's Kitty Lyons continuing our live coverage of Bluebell's Palms on a Pleasure Craft contest.

♪ We will all go out to see her when she comes ♪
♪ We will all go out to see her... ♪

(Whispers): Psst. Wade. Hold on.

I want to hear what happens next in the song. Wade...

Wade, we either team up now and take this crazy lady down, or she'll go sailing off singing into the sunset on your boat.

Woman: ♪ She'll be riding six white horses when she comes ♪
♪ she'll be riding six white horses when she comes ♪
♪ She'll be riding six white horses ♪
♪ she'll be riding six white horses... ♪


Zoe: Listen, I'm sorry about last night. You were right.

It turns out George isn't exactly your biggest fan.

Yes, he told me that himself.

So when Brick called me and said that his hand was better and he could work, I figured it was my chance to make it up to you.

So, I looked up a list of the top ten Spring Break activities, but since most of them involved showing boobs, I looked up the second top ten.

I figured that we could do keg stands, jell-o sh*ts, and watch the best Booty contest before lunch.

Wow, someone's taking Spring Break by the horns.

Oh, yeah. That's right. I'm tight.

We should get a drink.

But not at a bar.

I want my drink funneled or luged.

Luged, right? You can get a drink luged?

Look, Zoe...

The whole point of Spring Break is just to... is just to be a little spontaneous.

Do the things that you've never let yourself do before.

How about we just... see where the moment takes us?

(Laughs)

(Chuckles)

Oh...!

Hey, Lemon, why don't you get your daddy, just go out and buy you a boat?

Go on, get out of here.

Give up.

Bad news, Kinsella... you need a license to drive a boat.

You never passed a test in your entire life!

Wade: Oh, I got a test for you.

How many Belles does it take to lose a $50,000 boat?

Oh, shut up.

You know, you're just scared because you know that I have a will of steel.

Whatever, Lemon.

Cucumber Plane Fairy Mojo.

Lemon: Watermelon overalls.

You're just a wood-chip zebra anyway, Rippy.

(Wade braying)

(Screeches)

Hallucination?

No... (Clears throat)

No, it's too soon.

Lemon: Surrender Dorothy.

Phone home.

No brain... no brain damage.

(Wade squeals, growls)

(Gurgles)

I'm out.

I'm not gonna wind up in the hospital.

(Grunts) Yes!

(Lavon chuckles) (Whoops)

Lavon: So that's why you wanted me to get Tom Long's lizard costume.

(Chuckles) That's just evil.

(Chuckles)

Yeah!

(Whoops, chuckles)

Alliance over.

Damn right.

Hi!

Hi. George, more of your past has come to visit.

Well, hello, Shelby.

You look nice.

Here to hit me again?

No.

I'm just being neighborly.

Now that I've moved in with Brick and all.

I brought you a chiffon cake.

Now, that is nice, but you will have your hands full baking cakes for every neighbor in Bluebell.

Okay, fine.

I have an agenda.

George: Mmm.

To hit me?

No.

It's about Brick.

I'm worried.

That he's too old for you?

No.

Sorry.

He just isn't acting himself.

He's a little... off, clumsy and getting a lot of headaches.

Come to think of it, he did have a headache yesterday when we were coming home.

Before he drove the car into the tree?

Yeah. Okay. Now, I have what some people would call "alarmist tendencies."

Like this one time I was convinced my mom was struck by the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues, when really she was just practicing her Chinese language tapes.

So I'm sure that... that Brick is fine, and I'm just overreacting.

Right?

Yeah.

Zoe: Spring Break!

Okay, just be careful.

This'll get you drunk super quickly.

Well, as a doctor, you should know that alcohol metabolizes at a fixed rate, so...

Oh, Zoe.

There you are.

Seriously?

Look, I'm sorry to interrupt.

Uh, but I need to talk to you.

Jonah: Of course you do.

Just as she happened to be having fun... with me.

Okay, this isn't about you, Jonah.

Zoe, I'm sor... sorry.

You are upside down.

Jonah!

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Look, it's about Brick.

Uh, Shelby said that he's been really clumsy lately.

And that he's been getting a ton of headaches.

And then there's this miraculously healed hand injury.

Wait, Brick would not fake a hand injury... no way.

That is not like him.

No, it's not.

Later, Tucker.

Okay, look, Shelby is worried.

Okay? And the more I think about it, when were driving home, that tree branch was in the middle of the road the whole time, but Brick swears that it came out of nowhere.

I really think something might be going on with him.

So, tripping...

I mean, that's balance.

Virus...

Maybe stress-related?

He's a doctor... if it was a virus, he would've rested up.

Unless he's covering up symptoms because he already knows it's something more serious.

We need to go see Brick.

Now.

George, thank you.

You did the right thing.

Bad balance, blurred vision and headaches...

Your symptoms are serious, Brick.

You are exaggerating.

Could be a migraine or nothing.

Or a thyroid problem.

Or a brain tumor.

(Sighs) We got to get you checked out, Brick.

You can't ignore this.

And frankly, I don't know why you'd want to.

We have to call your family and Shelby.

No! We are not calling Shelby.

Look...

Shelby and I... (Sighs) we just got together.

She just moved in.

I-I don't want her thinking she's saddled with some dying old man.

Brick, you're not dying, and you're...

I will call Mobile Presbyterian.

I'll set up an MRI for the morning.

But no one is calling Shelby or anyone else.

Whatever you want.

Zoe: I'll pick you up in the morning.

Good.

(Gulls squawking)

Oh, hey.

Can you believe this is still going on?

Yeah, they're not giving up, are they?

Oh... looks like you've got company.

Annabeth, I...

No... need to explain.

Enjoy your dinner.

(Sighs)

Hi.

(Chuckles)

You brought me a picnic?

Well, I figured you'd be hungry, so I... brought you your favorite... chicken pot pie.

Okay, uh, Ruby, what's going on here?

I mean, are you... did you come back here to try to win me back?

I didn't. Honestly.

I...

But after I saw you for the first time again, I...

I knew.

I love Dallas.

I love my life.

I love all of it.

Except the part where you're not in it.

Oh.

So, uh... what are you saying?

I'm saying I want you back, Lavon.

And I'm willing to do whatever it takes this time to make it work.

Just promise me you'll think about it.

Yeah. O-okay.

Okay.

Annabeth, are you okay?

Me?

(Chuckles)

I'm not the one who's about to stand up for another night.

I'm fine.

(Birds chirping)

You ready to give up yet, Wade Kinsella?

Why? Are you fading?

(Chuckles) Me?

(Singsongy): Never.

Yeah, well, me neither.

I'm surprised.

You always been so good at quitting.

Ooh. Burn.

Yeah, see, everybody already knows that, all right?

They're expecting it.

I got one more chance to prove to you and everybody else...

They bet wrong.

Why... of all times now?

Why don't you just let me have the damn boat?

Why do you even care so much, Lemon?

Go bake some cupcakes, okay?

Decorate a house.

Do something else.

Anything.

How, exactly, Wade?

Ask for help?

This... keeping my hand on this stupid boat...

Is the one thing I can do by myself.

It is my one sh*t at being a grownup.

Do something on my own.

(Sighs) Hey.

Doc? Are you a mirage?

Oh, no. She's come as a doctor to put us out of our misery.

You should go first.

Uh, what's going on?

Okay, Brick didn't want me to tell you this, and don't be alarmed, but I thought that you should know he's going to get an MRI this morning at the hospital in Mobile.

An MRI?

On what?

His cranial region.

On his brain?

Is he okay?

Probably. Yeah.

Annabeth, what do I do?

I have to go.

Contestants get one bathroom break per hour.

Lavon, hush!

Uh, it's okay.

We'll find another way to get the money.

Okay, I...

I have to leave.

It's a tie!

Praise Jesus!

Kitty: It's over!

Lemon, come on.

I'll drive you.

You can follow me.

Why did you just...?

Well, it's no fun to win like that, Lemon.

(Groans quietly)

Yup.

Anything?

Not yet. Soon.

Brick's skull is so thick, the MRI probably just needs a few passes.

A.B., you should go.

What?!

No! I am your friend.

I want to be here for you.

And you always are.

But I haven't been such a good friend to you.

I saw you looking at Lavon and Ruby.

I've been selfish, keeping you from him.

I was wrong.

And... I'm sorry.

Lemon, you don't need to...

Go.

Go fight for your man.

Go.

(Laughs)

Shelby? How did you know we were here?

Well, Brick was acting like a lead float in a parade leaving town this morning.

Forced me to use his phone tracking device.

(Scoffs)

Is he okay?

We don't know yet.

I hope no other patient's family has any need for this waiting room today, 'cause...

(Laughs)

Listen, I'm sorry for accusing you of being jealous of Jonah.

Oh, no... no, no.

No, that's okay.

I mean, because there were ducks, and that's why you took the scenic route.

Black-Bellied Whistling Ducks.

Yeah, they're in migration right now.

It's actually a rare sight to see.

Really? Whistling ducks?

What do they whistle?

Show tunes, mostly.

It's very annoying.

(Both laughing)

I'm glad that I missed that.

Yeah.

Um...

(Sighs)

But look, I guess th-there was a... part of me that did suggest to Brick to take the scenic route.

And it was just because I-I couldn't...

(Sighs)

Couldn't stand Jonah being with you.

Because?

Because he doesn't appreciate you, Zoe.

He's not capable of it.

He's, uh... he's not gonna see all that you... how special you are.

He just doesn't see you... that's all, that's all.

(Laughs)

That's nice.

Thank you.

Yeah, but as for being jealous in that other way?

No. Not at all.

Oh, I mean, come on.

'Cause we have been... (Scoffs)

Yeah, over that.

Over.

Many times.

Many, many.

Um, uh, it's a relief.

Okay, good, good.

However, I am not proud of the way that I act around him.

I let him get under my skin.

So, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna be better about that.

Look, I'm gonna get something to eat.

You-you want anything?

Oh, no.

I'm good, thanks.

Okay.

Want to see my closet-organizing app?

Yeah.

You almost done?

Almost.

Okay, well, I just... I just need that bag of potato chips, right there, so...

It's the last bag, and I...

You know, I was thinking about getting those myself.

No, you weren't.

Mm-hmm.

No, you weren't.

You heard me say that I wanted the bag of potato chips, and now-now, you want the bag of potato chips.

How about I get the bag of chips, and you can have my leftover crumbs?

How about you just... you just get out of the way, and let me have the chips?

I was here first.

George: Will you just give me the... give me... just...?

Get into shirts.

Daddy!

Are you okay?

What did they say?

Oh, uh...

No, I-I'm just fine.

Yeah.

The, uh...

The MRI was totally clear.

(Lemon whoops)

Lemon: Thank God.

Yeah, the doctor said it was an ophthalmic migraine, and it's entirely treatable.

Well, thank God.

I don't know what I would have done -if something was the matter with you.

Well...

Lavon: Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

You're here. Good.

Um, listen...

I know Ruby's back, and she's bringing you picnics and making googly eyes at you, but before you make any decisions, you should know I'm throwing my hat in the ring, too.

I don't have a picnic, or, at this second, a hat, but I can get both.

(Laughs)

So...

Anyway.

Yours is the only hat in the ring, Annabeth.

Ruby left.

See, uh, I told her I had feelings for someone else.

You did?

Yeah.

You do?

(Laughs)



So... we won a boat.

Yeah.

Listen, I know some guys down at the docks.

They'll give us a good price for it.

We'll both be 25 grand richer, and this place will turn into some horrible chain restaurant.

Unless... we were to pool the money.

And you invest in my restaurant?

No.

So...

You mean... we...

Us.

Together.

Lord have mercy.

Crowd (Chanting): Zo-e! Zo-e! Zo-e! Zo-e!

Zo-e! Zo-e! Zo-e! Zo-e!

(Cheering)

Yes!

Okay, you were right...

That does get you drunk a lot faster.

Let's do it again.

Oh, I wish I could.

I gotta catch a flight to New York in a few hours.

What?! You're leaving?!

Wuss.

Dr. Wuss of Wuss Medical School.

Sorry.

Come on, walk me to my car.

Okay. Help me.

(Crowd whooping)

You know, I'm just so glad that... that we didn't have sex or anything.

I mean, ick, yuck.

Right?

Ooh, I threw up a little.

Super duper yuck.

I'm not so sure you're a Spring Break kind of girl after all, Dr. Hart.

What?! You are so wrong.

Hmm.

Something tells me you're more of a take-the-scenic-route, see-the-ducks kind of girl.

What is that supposed to mean?

Well, have fun, doc.

There's more foam wrestling in about ten minutes.

(Engine starts)

Hey, Jonah!

Spring Break!

(Whooping)

Carry on.

Nothing to see here.
