02x15 - Perfect Day 2.0

[bunniefuu]

- Previously, on Andi Mack...
- Aah.

I just went into The Fringe

to get something that
made me think of you.

Some people just aren't
good at giving presents.

That was the wrong present,
but this... is the right one.

What is it?

It's a piece of rice,
with your name on it.

- See?
- You have to stop buying me presents.

Sorry, I'm just
trying to be a good boyfriend.

- Jonah, you're not my boyfriend.
- I want the label.

But now... I don't know if I want it.

I'm moving.

How soon do you have to leave?

We're leaving in days.

They're must be something we can do.

You can stay in my bedroom.

(SCOFFS) There isn't
really enough room, is there?

My old bedroom.

And I think that this
is a wonderful home.

But, baby, I don't want to let you go.

I don't want to let you go, either.

BUFFY: I'm sorry, guys.

Come on, guys, think, we only
have a week left with each other.

I know... (SIGHS) I don't
want to think about it.

It's the world's saddest countdown.

And at the end, we launch Buffy.

Which is why we need to make
every last day epic.

We don't wanna spend what little
time we have left with each other

doing the same thing we always do...

sitting at The Spoon
and having baby taters.

But it's hard to think of an epic day.

The best days we've ever had together...

have just kind of happened by accident.

That's it.

What is?

You can't just create
an epic day out of thin air.

So let's recreate one
that we've already had.

Our Perfect Day.

Great idea.

What day was that again?

Oh!

Remember when we went on that
bike ride a few years ago?

It was the day that
we discovered the Alpine Slide?

- Oh, the Alpine Slide.
- Oh, and on the way, we found that shop

with the hot apple cider
and the pumpkin donuts?

The pumpkin donuts.

Let's do it again, today.

- Yes.
- Do what again?

Uh, wait a second, before you eat.

These three, they're still too
hot or still need to thaw.

GET THIS: we are going
to recreate our Perfect Day.

Oh.

"Oh"?

That's all my brilliant idea
gets is "Oh"?

Well, in my experience, you
can't recreate the perfect day.

Why not?

I guess it's just never
as good as the memory.

It's like... bringing home leftovers.

You're never gonna love it as much
as you did at the restaurant.

It's always just gonna be reheated meat.

No. You're wrong, you have to be.

We have not had
our last great day together.

Come on, guys, we can do this.

Today will not be reheated meat.

It's a weird rallying cry,

but... I'm on board.

Me too.

So, our plan has a hiccup.

Three very old, rusty hiccups.

I haven't ridden my bike in years.

Me, neither. But at least mine

didn't have to time travel
here from the ' s.

I'm using Bex's old bike
because I sold mine.

But it's still totally rideable.

(BELL RINGS)

If I had known that there was a place

that would clean and service
your bike for you,

I would've been riding
mine all the time.

(SCOFFS) No, you wouldn't.

Nah, I wouldn't.

Ah, it's been a while since
old Skidboot looked this good.

Skidboot? You named your bike?

Shh. You're hurting her feelings.

Skidboot's a girl?

Okay, so you all have your helmets.

Do you have your phones
and two forms of ID?

Mom, stop being such a mom.

Okay, who's ready for Perfect Day . ?

And I have my phone, right next to me,

at all times, if you need anything.

Thanks, but we won't.

FIRST STOP: pumpkin donuts.

♪ ♪

Last one there buys the cider!

Whoa. Definitely been a while.

I forgot how to do this.

Huh. I guess riding a bike
isn't like riding a bike.

Don't read into this!

I'm trying not to!

- Do you see him?
- Not yet.

You think we need to worry about him?

Always.

(PANTING, GRUNTING)

Here he comes.

(PANTING, GRUNTING)

Sorry... (PANTS)
my bike only has one gear.

Oh, no, it doesn't.
Your shifter is right there.

Okay, that information
might've been more helpful,

like, three-quarters of a mile ago.

(SNIFFS)

Do you guys smell what I smell?

(SNIFFS)

(SNIFFS) Pumpkin donuts.

Let's do this.

Little help? Okay.

Get me a cider.

♪ ♪

The cider is better
than I remembered it.

I know, right? It's like they captured
my childhood, added cinnamon,

and put it in a biodegradable cup.

I think I want another pumpkin donut.

Me, too.

Who invented pumpkin spice?

Because I would like
to shake the hand of the person

who managed to improve sugar.

The real question is, why did we
wait five years to come back here?

Yeah, this was the perfect idea, Andi.

(PHONE RINGING)

(PHONE SPEAKER BEEPS)

Checking up on us?

BEX: No. I just want
to know where you are

and how you're doing, which is totally

different from checking up on you.

(ALL LAUGHING)

- Everything's great.
- The cider is fantastic.

So are the donuts.

You might even say
it's been a perfect day so far.

- Better than perfect.
- Perfect-a-mundo.

BEX: Sounds like you're having fun.
Carry on.

- Will do.
- (CHUCKLING)

(PANTING)

Hey, Jonah.

Jonah!

Are you okay?

I... I just ran here is all.

You're good. Just breathe.

You want some water?

No, I'll be... I'll be fine in a second.

Why were you in such
a hurry to get here?

Um...

To... to... to buy a guitar.

I needed to buy a guitar.

I didn't know you played.

I... I don't, I just...
I wanted to learn.

Oh, yeah? What inspired you?

Oh, you know... music.

Huh.

- I just need to sit down.
- Yeah.

This is a big day.

I remember when I got my first guitar.

Let's see...

My dad taught me everything he knew.

- Was he a good musician?
- No. Horrible.

He only knew three chords.

But he taught them to me,

so they're still my favorites.

Here, I'll show you.

All right, put these
three fingers there.

There you go.

That's a D.

(STRUMS CHORD)

- (STRUMS OFF-KEY)
- (BOWIE CHUCKLES)

Now an...

Those three right there.

This is an A.

(STRUMS CHORD)

(STRUMS CHORD)

Nice. Now, G.

Yeah.

(STRUMS CHORD)

(STRUMS CHORD)

Congratulations, you now know the
best three chords in the world.

(SIGHS)

This is kinda great.

I can show you some more if you want.

Now? Will the store owner mind?

Nah, he's my friend. We jam.

I've performed here a bunch.

You should...
come and check me out sometime.

I will.

Ready for your next chord?

- Bring it.
- (CHUCKLES) C.

Thanks again, Martha!

One of these days, I'll get
that secret recipe from you!

Oh, I hope the Alpine Slide
still has those T-shirts:

- "Whoosh you were here."
- (BOTH GIGGLING)

- I need one. (GIGGLES)
- (INSECT BUZZING)

Go away, bee! I can't get stung.

Are you allergic?

No, I just suffer from hating
things that hurt really bad.

(CYRUS WHIMPERS)

Someone stole my bike.

Someone stole my bike.

Mine's still here.

Someone stole your bikes.

(SIGHS)

Let's just call Bex.
Ask her to pick us up.

She'll take us to the slide,
I can get my T-shirt...

No. That's not our day.
We're recreating our day.

We're already in new territory.

We can still get back on track.

How?

This is kind of roomy.
I bet we can all fit.

And ride it all the way to the slide?

We should... at least try.

- I call basket.
- (SIGHS)

Anyone wanna trade?
I'm sorry I called the basket.

Okay, ready? Here we go.

One... two...

- Nope!
- Never gonna happen.

We are not these kids.

♪ ♪

How far have we gone?

We're almost to the slide.

- Are you lying to me?
- Yes.

Thank you.

At least I wore my adventure shoes.

You have adventure shoes?

They don't get out much.

- (BEE BUZZING)
- (SHRIEKS) The bee! He followed me!

"He"? How do you know it's the same one?

Trust me, it's him.

Bees won't ever leave me alone.

Aah!

My bubbe says it's 'cause
I have sweet blood.

Aah! But my doctor says it's 'cause
I sweat more than most boys.

Aah!

Serpentine! Serpentine!

(SCREAMING)

Help! I'm stuck!

(GASPING, WHIMPERING)

Help!

Cyrus, you could help a little.

(CYRUS GRUNTING)

(CYRUS PANTING)

Where is your shoe?

It belongs to the quicksand now.

For Pete's sake.

(SIGHS)

It's gone, like, literally disappeared.

How do these things happen to you?

If I knew? Well, for one,
I'd still have a shoe.

Well, now how are you gonna walk?

I guess someone's just gonna have
to give me a piggyback ride.

(CLEARS THROAT) Buffy. Or the
fireman's carry, I'm not picky.

Yeah, I'm not doing that.

(SIREN CHIRPS)

You guys okay? Need a ride somewhere?

Yes. You're a lifesaver.

Do you guys mind
if I'm dropped off first?

I survived quicksand.

- Citrus Avenue?
- The Alpine Slide!

Come on.

Thank you.

♪ ♪

(PLAYING CHORDS)

(CHUCKLES) You're really good.

- Sure.
- No, seriously. I've never seen anyone

pick up chords that fast.

Thanks.

This was really fun.

Where should I put this?

You're not gonna buy it?

You came in here to get a guitar, right?

Hey, what's really goin' on?

Nothing.

It's just sometimes I get kinda
stressed and... can't catch my breath.

No big deal.

Jonah, that kinda
sounds like a panic att*ck.

Yeah, that's what
Cyrus's dad called it, too.

And he's a doctor.

It's great you're seeing a doctor.

I'm not.

He was just there.

The way you were just here.

I really don't wanna keep having them,

but I guess it doesn't matter
what I want.

If there's anything I can do...

Yeah, there... there is.

Don't tell Andi.

Yeah, I won't.

I think she'd understand.
But... I won't.

Thanks.

Jonah, I know this is a
weird way to discover this,

but you've got a real talent
playing guitar.

Well, I know it's really calmed me down.

Well, maybe you should
think about playing more.

I can give you lessons.

I'll think about it.

Thanks.

Yeah, man.

(LAUGHING)

Okay. Ready.

Guys, look!

Our bikes.

Deputy Bartlett,
we'd like to report a crime.

Those bikes are ours.
Can you arrest them?

Probably not, but I can stop 'em.

WOMAN (ON RADIO): Unit from
Dispatch, could you divert

to a stolen car in progress

at th and Main? Respond Code .

Uh, Dispatch from Unit ,
I'll be - to that location.

Sorry, guys, I'm gonna need
to drop you off.

Buckle up.

- CYRUS: Can we turn on the siren?
- No.

- (SIREN BLARING)
- Well, that's upsetting.

She turned on the siren
for them, but not for us?

You know what's even more upsetting?

We left our bikes
and backpack in her trunk.

- Stop! Stop!
- Please stop!

- Please!
- Aah!

My phone was in my bag.

Mine too.

Luckily, I still have mine.

(LAUGHS)

You're only at two percent.

I took a lotta selfies
in the police car.

Turn it off. Turn it off.

We have enough for one call.

Call Bex. Tell her to come pick us up.

She's going to say "I told you so."

She did tell us so.

(PHONE RINGING)

BEX: That was fast. You're
at the slide already?

Yeah. We're real speed demons.

How was Skidboot?
She give you any trouble?

No. Skidboot was great.

Hey, I wanna apologize for me
doubting you could pull this off.

I know you guys. When you wanna
make something happen, it happens.

Bex...

We're about to get on the
chair lift, we gotta go.

- No!
- Bex!

- (GASPS)
- We're calling her back.

It's out of power.

They must have a phone in there!

Help! Help, let us in!

Hello?

Please, let us in!

We need your phone!

That's it, then.
We're never leaving here.

Why did you do that?

You heard what Bex said.

When we want something
to happen, we make it happen.

Live update, we did not
recreate our best day ever.

We still can.

I don't know how. I know
the odds are against us.

Severely against us.

But you're moving. And I don't
want you to remember us giving up.

I want you to remember us as
the kids that made it happen.

That's a very stirring speech.

I have to wonder if you'd still
make it if you only had one shoe.

'Cause I don't see how
this day could get any...

- (BEE BUZZES)
- Aah!

(SCREAMS) Curse my sweet blood.

- Yes?
- Your shoulder's digging into me.

Oh, I'm so sorry. Maybe it's
because your whole body

is digging into my body.

Point taken, carry on.

Bex?

It's Buffy, actually.

No. Bex.

Does someone need a Mack... sy taxi?

Sorry, it just popped
in my head on the drive over.

Had to say it to someone.

How'd you know to come get us?

Something sounded off
about your phone call.

Also, I thought I heard Cyrus
crying in the background.

Cyrus saves the day.

Not something you get to say very often.

Why do you only have one shoe?

And... zero bikes?

- Well...
- Never mind. You can explain later.

I'm just glad you're safe.

Thanks, Mom.
