04x05 - Everyone Wants Something

Post by bunniefuu »

Snake:
She'll hate the part
where the girls hug us.

Why? It goes so well
with the lyrics.

♪ everybody wants
something they'll never... ♪

Hi.

What?

Remember, our video?

Joey, no.

Oh, lucy, come on.

Just get someone
else to sh**t it.

We've got a brand-new
script-- just read it.

If you like it

Maybe you'll want
to sh**t the video.

I get script approval?

Sure.

Okay, I'll read it, but
I'm not promising anything.

No, no.

Get back to
us on that.

Thanks a lot.

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

...So I had to race
home and find it.

Joey:
There is $30 left over.

Let's have a party
after we film the video.

Excellent!

There's caitlin--
caitlin!

Guess what?

Lucy will probably
sh**t our video.

That's great.

Do you want to be in it?

Uh... I don't think so.

Do you want to go
out this weekend?

Um... I can't.

Sorry.

You have to tell him.

I know.

Chicks-- who can figure them?

So, what's with her?

She's moody,
that's all.

She's been like
that all term.

Everything's fine, all right?

Mind your own business.

Okay?

Sorry.

There she is.

There she is!

Did you read it?

Yes.

And?

Sorry.

You've got to be kidding!

I like the script, but
the part about the girls

Fondling you?

No.

But that's
the best part!

I told you she
wouldn't go for it.

We'll change
the script

And we'll have
another one for you

At the end of the day.

If you like it then,
will you sh**t it?

I'll think about it.

This isn't fair, man--
it's our video!

Let's find someone
else to sh**t it.

Who else has
a video camera?

What do we change?

We just have to change
the first page...

The second page...

The third page...

Did you see the looks
on their faces?

I know--
I love creative control.

It's great watching
them squirm.

Do you think you'll
ever sh**t the video?

Probably; it's good
practice for movies.

Since l.D. Isn't around,
maybe I could help you.

Sure.

Thanks!

I'm really
interested in video.

Since when were you
interested in video?

Since wheels
got interested.

Erica, he's nice.

He's not our type.

Different strokes for
different folks, erica.

Just because you're
not attracted to him

Doesn't mean I'm not.

Heather, come here.

"erica farrell
murders babies"?

Who keeps doing this?

What are they trying to prove?

It's so unfair.

What is wrong with them?

Everybody wants... What?

I got it-- good marks!

♪ everybody wants
good marks... ♪

It has to appeal
to the teen market.

A car.

Everybody wants a car.

That is good!

That's a good idea.

Thank you.

But who has a car?

We could ask clutch.

Yeah!

That lunch bag?

We can't trust him.

Remember when
he bought us
a case of beer

He took six
for himself?

Who else are
we going to ask?

Snake:
He's got a point.

Okay, then,
let's do it!

All right!

Everybody
wants a car!

♪ everybody wants
a... Car? ♪

Yeah.

Another meeting?

It's good to get involved.

Yeah.

I'll see you later.

Bye.

Bye.

How's your new boyfriend?

Claude isn't
my boyfriend.

You spend all day with him.

So?

Shouldn't you break up
with joey first?

You're stringing
him along.

You shouldn't treat
boys like that.

How would you know
about how to treat boys?

I'm sorry.

Maya, I'm sorry.

It's just you've
got it all wrong.

Claude and I are just
friends, that's all.

We've gone to movies, but
we're not seeing each other.

We haven't kissed or anything.

But you want him
to kiss you, right?

Joey's going to be
really, really hurt

When you dump him,
you know.

Well, who's going
to ask him?

Excuse me, clutch?

We've got this band
called "the zits"...

And we're
making a video.

Would you
like to help?

Why would I want
to help you guys?

Because it's
a worthwhile project.

It will be
a dynamite video.

And we'd like
to use your car.

Forget it.

But your car could
become famous.

We have some money...

I said no.

We're desperate,
man--

We promised lucy

A script by the
end of the day.

We could ask your
parents for their car.

Forget it.

How is lucy involved?

She's our cameraperson.

Would have been.

Okay, okay-- I'm a nice guy.

I'll let you guys use my car.

Really?!

Excellent!

Seriously?

As long as I'm driving.

Well, yeah.

Hey, it's your car.

All right, thanks!

Liz:
Let's go see emma.

Okay, sure.

Hey--

There's the m*rder*r.

Liz...

What?

That's all you ever
talk about anymore.

You believe in
murdering babies?

No, just in minding
my own business.

This is my business.

Right, so you're god

And you know
everything?

What's with you?

Look...

When my mom was
pregnant with me

My dad didn't want
her to have a kid.

He thought it was, like,
her fault or something

So he told her to
have an abortion.

But she wouldn't

So one day he b*at
her up so bad

She was put in hospital.

She was unconscious.

She never went
back with him.

I suppose if she had

I wouldn't be
alive right now.

Liz, I'm sorry.

I didn't know.

Joey:
Come on!

Lucy:
No.

Don't you like
the script?

It's not sexist.

Look, I like the script

And I'll even
sh**t the video--

But no clutch.

Why not?

That's none
of your business.

Look, we gave you
script approval--

Now you want casting
approval, too?

It's our video,
you know.

Fine, then make
it yourselves.

Lucy--

What's wrong
with clutch?

He's really
a great guy.

Look--
no clutch, okay?

Erica-- wheels!

Oh!

Lucy, uh...

Don't you think you're
being a little unfair?

You might as well
give clutch a chance.

Maybe he has changed.

It's a perfect opportunity.

He can't do anything
if we're all there.

I'll be there if
he does try anything.

You used to
really like him.

You said the video
is good practice.

What harm
could it do?

Come on, lucy.

You'll have fun!

Okay, you guys.

All right!

What are we
going to do now?

This is the worst
day of my life.

Maybe we could
change the script.

Snake:
Why is lucy being such a pain?

Okay.

I'll sh**t your video.

Did you just say what
I thought you said?

Yes, I'll sh**t your video.

With the car?

With the car.

With clutch?

With clutch.

Oh, yeah!

Thanks a lot!

We are going to
be famous, guys!

We're going to be rich!

All those girls!

Student on loudspeaker:
There is a volleyball meeting
in room 210 after school.

I hate that.

That's why I do it.

Here.

What is it?

It looks like a box.

Open it.

It's the other
one of these.

It's never been worn.

No.

Why not?

There's people around.

Come on; you're not
in junior high anymore.

I have a class.

Bye.

Maya:
Now are you going
to tell joey?

Bye!

"stop k*lling the unborn"?

That's really nice.

You did the graffiti too,
didn't you?

And the notes.

How can you be
so horrible?

You're the one
who's horrible.

You k*lled a baby.

How do you know?

And what's it got
to do with you?

I know what you did.

You don't know why--

Or what it was like.

I knew you
m*rder*d a baby.

m*rder*d a baby?

You m*rder*r.

I hate you!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Teacher:
What's going on?

Stop it!

Girls, girls--
stop it!

Teacher:
That's enough, come on.

You should be
ashamed of yourself

You disgusting m*rder*r!

You self-righteous pig!

Let go of me!

Let go!

Joey!


This is the greatest
day of my life.

Joey!

Oh, caitlin!

I'll see you later.

We're sh**ting
our video today.

Do you want to come?

No.

You can be in it.

Joey, I have
to talk to you.

What?

Just wait.

We haven't been
getting along very well.

I know--
that's my fault.

I've been so wrapped
up in this video

But when that's over,
I'm yours forever.

Joey, I still like you;
just not like before.

What do you mean?

It's nobody's fault--

We've just gone in
different directions.

You have your band, I like
politics and the environment.

You're fun and outgoing,
I'm quiet and boring.

So?

So... I think we should
stop seeing each other.

Is this because of
that claude guy?

( corrects pronunciation ):
Claude.

You're not going to go
out with him, are you?

Oh, man.

I'm sorry,
I had to tell you.

No, it's no
problem, really.

I'll see you at the movies
or something, all right?

Yo, clutch.

Snake:
The zits have arrived.

Thank you, thank you.

No applause,
thank you.

Just throw money.

Oh, would you take this?

Lucy:
So how's erica?

I went home with her

But she told me to
come back for the video.

I don't understand liz--

She can be pro-life, but
writing things on walls?

Hi.

Snake:
The people that make this all
possible-- the technical crew.

Give them a big
round of applause.

It will be
a long afternoon.

Heather:
Is the tape in here?

It's all set
and ready to go.

Okay.

So we just stand around
watching you guys look stupid?

We have to wait
for joey.

Look, it's almost 4:15--
where is he?

Don't worry, he'll show.

Relax.

Clutch:
I like your shirt.

Wheels:
Thanks, we like it.

Heather:
I wonder why joey's late?

Snake:
Who knows?

Maybe he got
stage fright.

Joey jeremiah?

No way.

Yes, it's joey jeremiah

King of the keyboard

Master of music.

You're late.

Do concerts ever start on time?

Come on, it's show time.
