03x07 - The New Girls

[bunniefuu]

Previously on Andi Mack...

Our no-breakup breakup. It works.

We're still pretty lucky to
have each other as exes.

Are you kidding?
We are the best exes ever.

And we'll always be able to hang out

no matter what buttons get pushed.

Even if it's the biggest
button of them all.

What button's that?

The one where one of
us likes somebody else.

Right.

Can you imagine what it's gonna
be like when that happens?

Sorry. I've gotta go.

Looks like I won't have to imagine it.

You're about to start
a girl's basketball team.

Hey, welcome. Glad you guys showed up.

I'm Buffy.

sh**t with one hand, not two.

Ease up. Don't drag your feet.

This is a nightmare.

They're terrible.

Hey! You made it.

You should see your face right now, bro.

- Do you know what's in that bag?
- Yeah.

I'm gonna go. I think you should too.

Cyrus, Office Wright has some questions.

- About?
- The g*n.

Am I in trouble?

Okay, Spikes.

Remember the drill we did yesterday?
The three-way weave.

You're one, you're two, you're three.

One passes to two, two passes to
three and three passes to one.

Come on. We just did it yesterday.

You girls are up next.

One pass to two!

You're two now. Pass to three!

That's it, okay.

Now, three pass to one.

Where are you one?

No, up here. It's a weave.

Pass to two.

New two, other two.

Now pass... Wait. Who's three?

Take five.

Breathe in, breathe out.

- Who is strong?
- I am strong.

- Who can do this?
- I can do this.

- How much longer
- 19 minutes.

See you in five.

It's a train wreck.

If we don't get better soon,

I'm afraid Dr. Metcalf
won't assign us a coach.

Be patient.

You're breaking new ground.

Exactly.

You think Michelangelo looked
at a block of marble and said,

"Ennhh, I just can't with this rock."

I can't chisel a winning
team out of these guys.

If I just had one player,

one who knows the game,

who's played on a team.

Is that too much to ask?

That was fast.

T.J.? Again?

You know what to do. Swipe, delete.

- Here's the thing.
- Cyrus!

He really wants to talk.

- Shouldn't I at least hear him out?
- No.

There's nothing he can say.

He hangs out with people who
play with their parent's g*ns.

We don't want anything to happen to you.

He obviously feels bad.

- He keeps calling.
- Then block him on your phone.

Right now.

While we sit here and watch you do it.

There.

Satisfied?

What could be more important than me?

Jonah. Like I had to ask.

Not Jonah.

Her.

- I knew there was somebody.
- Since when?

He had this look
on his face the other day.

Like he was trying to tell me something.

Oh, I know that look.

You just want to shake him
and say, "Spit it out, man!"

Well, it's pretty clear
what that look means.

- We're staring.
- This is rude.

We should stop.

Let's go meet her.

No! We need to wait
for Jonah to introduce us.

He's probably worried
about how I'll react.

If I do it now,

he'll know I'm totally fine with her.

I wouldn't...

Hello! Friend of Jonah Beck.

Excuse me. I'm just trying to say hi.

Hello?

Did you see that?

She wouldn't even turn around!

She just kept walking.

Let's give her a chance.

I just did.

Is this a good time?

For what?

For this.

I was cleaning out the garage and...

Do you know what we had down there?

I do.

Old phones, old computers,

fax machine, a slow cooker.

And that's why I asked you
to clean out the garage.

Well, I can't throw them away, Celia.

They're useless.

No, they're not.

I'm taking their parts and
making these little sculptures.

I'm calling them Creoples.

Oh, they have a name.

Yeah. Creature plus people.

- Creoples.
- Okay.

This is my first one.

What do you think?

- He's adorable.
- Oh.

Creoples are genderless.

- Hm. This is a fun fact.
- Uh-huh.

Andiman! Got any free time
in the next couple of days?

There's someone I want you to meet.

Would that be your new girlfriend?

I'm not sure about girlfriend.

You know, labels.

But yeah, her name's Libby.
I told her all about you.

She said you sounded cool
and wants to meet.

Well, that wasn't really
the impression that I got.

I saw you two this morning.

Okay.

After you walked away, I tried
to introduce myself to her.

I called out several times,

- but she iced me.
- She didn't hear you.

You weren't there.

And I know you want
everybody to be friends

but Libby clearly has
some kind of problem with me.

She's either jealous, or unfriendly,

- or stuck up...
- Andi. Libby's deaf.

Oh.

Let's just say there is
nothing more humiliating

than being 100% in the wrong.

There was that one time that I
wore my pants backward to school.

You were six.

And your pants had elastic waistbands.

The front looked like the back.

And yet, I'm still haunted by the moment

that I looked down and realized,

'Ello, pockets!

T.J.'s not sitting with his friends.

Wonder why.

Oh, look. It's "Taste of Paris" Day!

You know what that means.

The a Sloppy Joe is a Sloppy Pierre?

That's fun, right?

I'm just gonna do a quick
walk-by, make sure he's okay.

I'm feeling very managed right now.

That's how it's gonna be, huh?

Come on.

No? Not gonna play nice, huh?

Ugh! Why?

Here you go.

What's this?

I asked you to bring me a smoothie.

It is a smoothie.

It's called the Green Goddess.

What's in it?

Baby kale, spinach, cilantro...

I'm not hearing ice cream.

Ahh-ha!

Yes! Finally!

Ha-ha... Oh! Why?

I could fix that.

Why didn't you say so sooner?

I wanted to give you a chance.

Well, now you get
the chance to show off.

Well, hold my smoothie.

You know, I can see leaves in this.

If I can see plant life,

it, by definition, is not a smoothie.

Done.

Really? How did you...

Oh. I guess that'll work.

I guess so because it's working.

Hm. What's going on over here?

Oh, the hydraulics gave out.

I can fix that.

That's okay. We're gonna
call the manufacturer.

Why? I'm right here.

But we don't have any tools.
Not even a screw driver.

Eh. Who needs tools?

People who fix things?

Voila!

All we needed here was an extension
cord, which you'll never notice.

And this leg was wobbling.

Ha! Not anymore.

The rug was slipping.

And this is the easy one.

- I really like that brush.
- I know, me too.

Works like a charm, huh?

And is this the right height?

'Cause I can make it taller or
shorter, whatever you want.

You really didn't have to do all this.

- If there's anything else I can...
- No, no, no.

You got everything.

Okay.

Hey.

I'm Buffy.

Oh, yeah?

As in, "Into every
generation a slayer is born?"

Have you seen any vampires around?

You're welcome.

I guess you get that a lot.

Only since I was two.

I'm Kira, by the way.

You're new, right?

Day three. Just transferred
here from Monroe.

I've seen you play.

You're the sh**ting guard
for the Monarchs.

You've got a sick fade-away!

We could really use a sh**ting guard.

Jefferson has a girl's team?

Yeah, it's also new. This year.

Or... this week.

It was actually my idea.

That's why you're being so friendly.

Wait, no. I'm just friendly.

But... if you did join the team,

we could get a coach
and play other schools.

Even if you don't,
we can still be friends.

But it would be so cool
if you joined the team.

Please join the team.

I'm in, slayer.

No, you're the slayer.

When do I get to meet the team?

Heads up.

Uh, this team... Well...

I'm trying to find the
right words to prepare you

and all I'm coming up with is...

hot mess.

They can't be that bad.

Four of them tripped coming
out of the locker room.

Hey!

Andi, Libby. Libby, Andi.

We learned it in fifth grade.

But I only remember a few words.

My favorite was dolphin.

It's okay, you can text.

That's what we do.

But then aren't all
your conversations just...

Staring at your phone?

Everyone stares at their phone.

What?

I like your headband.

Thank you. I love yours.

Thanks. I made it.

Did you? I made mine too.

A necktie?

Yeah, I know. A necktie.
Not the most original.

But what is this?

Do you know what this is?

A headband?

Yes. But what is it made of?

Headband material?

Clueless.

Yeah.

Is this a popcorn bucket?

Did you make this from a popcorn bucket?

Looks good. It's yours.

Thank you. And you keep mine.

There is someplace
I really want to show you.

Is that okay? Can I borrow her?

Yeah. Sure.

Come on.

Say nice things about me?

Stole my date.

Spikes! Listen up.

This is Kira.

She was the sh**ting guard
for the Monroe Monarchs

and they were undefeated last season.

Now she's ours.

Hey. Happy to be here.

Come on, guys!

Let's take the Spikes to the next level.

Yeah!

Ready when you are.

Let's do this.

Yes! Nice one, Kira!

Keep up with Kira, guys.

Hit her pace.

Come on. What's gonna happen
when I'm not holding back?

Denied.

At least try next time.

Offense. Reset. Top of the key.

Hit me. I'm wide open.

That's it! Nice one, Maria.

Whoo, Buffy!

You were right. This team is a hot mess.

So what do you think of AndiShack?

This is beautiful!

Beautiful?

I know, right?

I could never be sad here.

Could never be sad?

Oh, well. I've been sad here.

About Jonah?

Is that how you say Jonah? J Dimple?

Why did you two break up?

We didn't really break up.

We just agreed we were
better as friends.

He's a really great guy.

I shouldn't say anything.

Please.

It was a non-event.

Please.

I can't. I really like Jonah.

We didn't have a lot to talk about.

He does prefer emojis.

He's very cute.

Cute!

Ooh! Try that one on.

I didn't know you were coming in.

Your father made this.

I need your honest opinion.

Huh.

Weird, right?

- It's...
- Weird.

He calls it a Creople.

And he's in the garage making more.

Maybe it's some sort of art
therapy he learned at the Ashram?

He didn't need
"art therapy" before he left.

Why would he need it now?

Oh, what's that?

I think it's trying
to tell us something.

She's making problems
where there are none?

Now I'm worried about you.

What happened here?

Bowie happened.

He offered to help out
with some handyman stuff.

And you let him?

Is that swing taken?

How'd you know I'd be here?

I've been stopping by.

Seeing if I could get you
without your bodyguards.

I'm not supposed to hang out with you.

- I should go.
- No, stay. I'll go.

Can I at least say I'm sorry first?

I didn't know Reed
was gonna bring a g*n.

I wouldn't have gone

and I definitely
wouldn't have brought you.

Now you hate me.

Classic T.J.

Anything good, I gotta ruin it.

T.J.

You said you were gonna apologize.

I just did.

Actually, you didn't.

Yes I did. I said I was...

Huh. You're right.

Well, sorry for not saying sorry.

So, you've apologized
for not apologizing.

But you still haven't apologized.

You can be a little annoying,
you know that?

Well, you can be oblivious.

Well, you can be very judgey.

Well, you can be intimidating.

- You know what else you are?
- What?

The only person I can talk to like this.

Okay if I stay?

So, what are we gonna do

to whip these slackers into shape?

That's not why I wanted to talk.

Then, what's up?

It's...

You are an amazing ball player, Kira.

Just between us,
that was barely my B game.

No doubt.

But I need you to adjust your attitude.

My attitude?

What's wrong with my attitude?

Well, you're not really
being a team player.

Excuse me? I am the team.

You just heard yourself, right?

Yeah, and I heard you too

when you called your team a hot mess.

That was a mistake.

I shouldn't have said that.

You're the one who needs to
adjust her attitude, not me.

This isn't going to work.

What's that?

I can't have you on the team.

That's pretty bold...

calling this a team.

You know, it seems more like a day camp,

where everyone gets a trophy
just for showing up.

- I'm sorry...
- Slayer?

What a joke.

Hey.

This one has yogurt in it, hm?

- That sounds promising.
- Yeah.

Blueberries, pineapple...

...beets.

- I'm out.
- Ugh.

What's going on here?

- Look, Bex!
- I see, Mom!

- It works!
- Thanks, Dad.

Sure thing, honey.

You said I did a great job.

I'm sorry.

I just didn't want to
hurt your feelings.

The truth is, is that,
you're great at improvising.

Which works for music,

Just not so much for cabinetry.

I just wanted to help.

Actually, you did.

Mom was a little worried that
even though Dad is back,

he still hasn't
completely found himself.

She doesn't look worried now.

What if I told you that that
was my plan all along? Hm?

I'd say...

I like your work.

You know what happened to Reed?

He has to do 100 hours
of community service.

And the police
are investigating his dad.

For what?

Negligent storage of a firearm.

Whoa.

Seriously.

I just want you to know it wasn't me

who told the police about the g*n.

I would've but they already knew.

Yeah. I told them.

Surprise! I did the right thing.

I wish I had an AndiShack.

Ooh, I like that, AndiShack.

AndiShack.

Well, my shack is yours.

You're welcome to come any time.

Thank you.

Jonah.

He's looking for us.

He's looking for us because we're late.

- For what?
- He's worried.

About what?

He's afraid I'm gonna say something

to make you break up with him.

- You did.
- I did?

Wait. What? When?

Back in AndiShack.

No, I didn't say anything.

What did I say?

"He's cute but he's boring."

I never said he was boring.

But you meant it.

Okay, even if that's what I meant,

you can't break up with him.

You did.

Yeah, I did. But that's
a whole other story.

Which we don't have time for.

Look, he is a really great guy.

Please, don't break up with
him because of what I said.

Sorry.

Don't! You can't!

Seriously, don't break up with him.

Please. Please!

Jonah. Hi!

What are you guys talking about?

Umm...

Next on Andi Mack...

- Agh!
- Three, zero.

It's a m*ssacre!

I just remembered,
I'm supposed to be somewhere.

Are you upset that I'm winning?

Ooh, I think he is upset.

That's because you're here,
if you want to know.

- What is it?
- Ask him.

What did you do?

It's been way too long
since we hung out.

This says tomorrow night.

I have plans tomorrow night.

With who?

Amber's taking me to a party.

I'm sure you could come.

I don't want to tag along

to a party I wasn't invited to.
