01x26 - Scarlett Larry

[bunniefuu]

Now, girls in the center with a right
-hand star.

This is so unfair.

How come Kate gets to dance with my potential boyfriend Ethan? Cause she asked him.

You could have.

But then I'd have to get the nerve to talk to him.

Come on back and honor your partner.

Now, allemande left.

Howdy
-do, corner.

Guess what? Somebody has a crush on you.

The things you learn in coed gym.

A crush on me? I'm the crushee, not the crusher.

Hey, someone's got a crush on me.


-Who?
-Give me a sec.


-Name, please?
-Oh, I can't tell.

That would be gossiping, and that's wrong, Lizzie.

She won't tell.

All in the center with a right
-hand star.

Well, maybe it's Quinn.

Boy most likely to play in the World Series.

Well, that's not so bad.

And a left
-hand star.

I heard you have a gentleman caller.

Yeah, whose name is? Mmm, haven't heard.

Maybe it's Winston,the transfer from Mali.


-Ooh.

Exotic.


-And he barely speaks English.

We don't have to worry about saying anything stupid.

All around with a left
-hand lady.

Maybe it's Ethan Craft! That'd be a crush return.

In what universe, Lizzie McGuire? Well, then who? Hi, Lizzie.

Larry Tudgeman?! Nerd times pi.

Now, all in the center with a great big yell! If you believe, we've got a picture
-perfect plan We've got you fooled 'Cause we only do the best we can Sometimes we make it And sometimes we fake it But we get one step closer each and every day We'll figure it out on the way Lizzie McGuire S01E26 Scarlett Larry Larry Tudgeman?! My first crush
-er!
-Oh, it's unfair!
-My condolences.

Yeah, tell me about it.

The guy hasn't changed his shirt since, like, second grade! Relax.

It's just a crush.

He's not going to do anything.

Yeah, we've had a crush on Ethan Craft for forever and we've never done anything about it.

I guess when you put it like that I guess the crush has been crushed.

Lizzie! There you are! Can Can I talk to you for a second? I I was wondering if maybe sometime you'd like to go out? Like on a date.

Like, Sunday afternoon? Um Never! No way! Not in a million years! Nu
-uh! Nope! Nix! Nyet! I, um Well, I kind of have this thing.

So, I can't.

Thanks for asking, though.

Lying is perfectly legal in a case like this.

Oh.

that, uh That's too bad.

So much for the crush being history.

Good thing he has algebra next.

That'll cheer him up.

I don't feel guilty.

All right, I feel guilty.

Take that! Mom's home.

Okay, that's it, guys.

Hi, honey! Hard day? No, I had a wonderful day.

Until I tried to park the car in the garage and couldn't.

Do you know why? Because you turned your wheel too early, then panicked and turned it the other way really, really fast.

I don't know what you're talking about.

The reason I couldn't park is because the driveway is filled with your junk.

And the lawn.

And where is that junk supposed to go? In the tool shed.

But it can't fit in the tool shed because the tool shed is so filled with your junk.

It's junk to you but to us it's stuff.

Well, the stuff has to go.

Now.

Party pooper! That's my job.

It's not messy.

Well, let's just move some stuff around so it looks like we did something.

That's still tight.

Keep that.

Mom I, uh, need your advice.

Really? You want to talk to me? Yeah, um.

I'm obviously desperate.

It, it's about a boy.

Ow! Boy trouble?! Oh, my God.

Oh, honey, at last! Come here, tell me.

No, no, no, no.

Forget it.

I'm sorry.

I really am.

Now really tell me what it is.

Okay.

Well, what do you do if a guy you don't like
-
- and never ever will like, like, in a million years like wants to go out with you? Well, how do you know you don't like him if you haven't given him a chance? So you mean go out with him? That's not the answer I was looking for.


-Hey, watch it.


-This can go.

Just a sec.

That's my soap box racer! What a beauty.

This thing? Lame
-o.

Grandma on my scooter goes faster.

Hey, you should have seen Grandma when she was in this thing! Hey, wait a second.

Scooters are on the way out.

We could shine this baby up make it Y2K compatible and voila! We've got the Next Big Thing! Hey, get out of there.

It's my turn.

Okay, let me rephrase the question, Mom.

What do you do if the guy you don't like is a total geek? You have to agree with me in this case, Mom.

I can't go out with him.

Mom, mom! Emergency! Dad's stuck in the soap box racer.

Okay, okay.

No, in that case you may have to marry him.

'Cause that's the McGuire Curse.

Jo! Honey! Help! Okay, okay.

You mean, this is my destiny? I don't know.

Maybe.

The one thing I know about boys, honey is that some of the best ones come in very strange packages.

Well, then Larry Tudgeman must be really amazing.

I can't tell you what to do about the boy who likes you that you don't like.

Yeah, but if I don't do the right thing, fast forward to the disappointed speech.

I'm just saying nobody likes to be rejected.

I know.

Boys are very sensitive creatures.

Especially our kind.


-Help!!
-Oh! Gosh, your dad.

Oops.

Thank you.

I wouldn't want Ethan Craft to shine me on the way I did to Larry.

Righteous thinking, Lizzie.

I was thinking the complete opposite, Gordo.

Have you lost your mind? She can't go out with Larry Tudgeman.

Tudgeman! Miranda, it's just one dumb date.

One dumb date for Lizzie but it's one giant date for every boy who has ever been dissed by a girl.

So she's a hero.

Suggestion: make sure Larry takes you someplace where no one will see you.

Especially Kate.

Miranda! Trust me, this could ruin your social status for, like, ever.

I didn't even know I had social status and now it's going to be ruined.

Hello? It's not too late to hang up.

Lizzie! Um, I have caller ID.

Oh great.

Sometimes I wish I lived in the Stone Age.

Um I just wanted to know if you were still available for that date this weekend.

Tudge rules.

Tudge rules! Okay, I guess that's yes.

Hello? I cannot believe I'm going to do this.

I'm going to go out with Larry Tudgeman! And you're going to have a great time.

What are you doing here? Oh, I wanted to make sure that you were actually going to go through with this.

Good
-bye! Cool racer!
-Larry?
-You look handsome.

Oh, I'm wearing my weekend shirt.

And these are for you.

Well, isn't that sweet? Way sweet.

He actually does look cute.

Is this The Tudge? I had to battle alien forces in my garden to capture them for you.

Yeah, it's The Tudge.

Hey, cool racer.

Tudgeman.

Hey, kids, have a good time.

Hold on one second there, Lizzie.

Dudes, if you remove the flanges in this area you'll get maximum acceleration.

Genius.

All right, Tudge! Oh, no, I don't want to get grease on my hands.

I'm going on a date.

Right.

You are going to love this place.

They have a Tesla coil.

Well, at least no one I know will see us here.

Isn't this the coolest place on earth? Yeah (Farrah
- I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend) Sitting here so close together So far we're just friends And I'm wondering whether I, am I just imagining You, do you really have a thing for me? I think I see you When I see you smile and the smile's for me I got to tell you Hey, you, I want to be your boyfriend I'm trying to say I want to be your number one Hey, you, I want to be your boyfriend Gonna make you love me I'm actually having a good timewith Larry Tudgeman at a science museum.

Have we entered some kind of alternate reality? Hey, Matt, get in.

I don't think it's ready yet.

Steer! Steer! Steer! I am steering! You okay? You didn't hurt the car.

Mommy! See, the heart looks nothing like a valentine.

It's actually the shape of an upside
-down pear.

And get this.

In an average lifetime the heart beats 2 and half billion times.

Wow.

Larry, you have all this knowledge and you explain yourself so well.

Well, I'm very intrigued about the world around me.

Hey, look, Lizzie, the mitral valve.

All right, icky interests but the thing about Tudgeman is for a dork, he's got a lot of self
-confidence.

See, I like what I like and I don't worry about what other people think.

I mean, boy bands are a trend.

The circulatory system is forever.

Who's the dork? I freak if I wear the wrong shoes.

Well, thanks for a great day.

Whoa.

I think he's having a heart att*ck.

You can barely stay awake through science class.

You couldn't have possibly had fun at a whole museum about it.

I said I had fun, okay? It wasn't that bad.

Larry's really nice.

I'm glad I went out with him.

Whatever.

Bonus
-
- it earned me some karma points to be redeemed with the boy of my choosing.

You went out with Larry.

Now you can go out with Ethan Craft.

Or at least have the nerve to talk to him.

Here's your opportunity.

Ethan's close enough to make it look like a chance meeting but not far enough to make it look like you've gone out of your way to bump into him.

Go get him, tiger.

Hey, Ethan.

Here you are, Lizzie.

Hey, Larry.

I can't believe you're my girlfriend.

I am the luckiest man alive.

Intercepted pass! I am not Larry Tudgeman's girlfriend.

Did you say something to make him think that you two are going out? I told him he was nice.

Well, there you go.

He's just used to being blatantly rejected.

Look, you can't keep avoiding Larry forever.

He's telling the whole school that you're his girlfriend.

We've got to nip that in the bud.

Deny, deny, deny.

It's such a Kate move.

It would only embarrass him in front of the whole school.

What if I did the opposite of Kate? What if I went out with Larry? I mean, pretend to go out with him? Hmm.

Go on, McGuire.

Yes, please, explain.

Okay, I'll fake go out with him for a day and then I'll fake break up with him.

Hmm, clever plan.

It completely eliminates the humiliation factor.

But if anybody finds out you're risking social destruction.

So I'll take the risk.

I just don't want him to get hurt.

You're not going to kiss him, are you? No! No! It'll be way over before then.

But you guys have to keep this quiet.

Today's announcements: Who's the school's hottest pair? Why, none other than Tudge and McGuire.

They're on fire.


-What?
-I didn't tell Kate anything.

Anymore, free too, You're through for sure Just go get on with your life Stop Acting like you're giving up Listen, I mean it (I mean it) There's nothing that he's worthy of He's just another player playin' in the name of love I've seen enough, now this must come to an end Get another, Get another, Get another boyfriend (Backstreet Boys
- Get Another Boyfriend) You know, if I didn't know any better I'd actually think that you and Larry were going out.

Yea, let's hope the breakup is just as convincing.

I don't want to lead him on any longer.

This has been the longest morning.

Ballroom dancing.

Ladies, pick your partners.

Of all the days to be fake
-dating Larry.

Ugh.

And one, two, three, one, two, three Ow! You're stepping on my feet.

Well, you're completely off tempo.

Hey, Larry, meet me at the lunch patio after school, okay? Can't get enough of me, huh? Uh, right.

We're the coolest couple here.

Hey, let's do that.

Wait! Make that next time! Oh, I'm so sorry, princess.

Now I've put my life in danger to do the right thing.

You're right, Gordo, this is the perfect hill to test the Samurai.

Hey, I'm the driver.

I'm working on getting us endorsements.

We're calling it The Monster Matt Machine.

Settle this later.

Right now we've primo wind conditions.

It's now or never for the Gordinator.

It's too bad your mother refused to be here.

I can't believe she didn't want to see this.

Heads up! Start the commotion (The Wiseguys
- Start The Commotion) Tie it up, baby.

Hey! Hey, guys! Hey, watch out! Watch out! Watch out! Watch out! Watch out! Sorry! Get up, put your body in motion Get up, get up Get up, put your body in motion Groovy! Hey! Honey? Hi, Jo.

Glad you could make it.

Well, I never would have forgiven myself if I had missed that.


-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm fine.

That was awesome, Dad.

I clocked you at 45 miles an hour.

How's the car? I'm sorry.

It didn't make it.

Oh, man, my race car's smashed to smithereens.

Oh, honey.

Listen What do you say I take you all out for some ice cream?
-All right!
-That'd be great, Mrs.

McGuire, yeah.

After you clean up the tool shed and the backyard, okay? I knew there'd be a catch.

Yesterday I was just the Tudge.

Today I'm Le Tudge.

I'm a boyfriend.

Yeah.

Stop before you break my heart.

You're awesome but, um I got to tell you the truth.

I don't really think that this relationship is working out for me.

I just don't think we have enough chemistry to go steady, you know? Prepare for waterworks.

You're right.

We're living a lie.

I mean, I need a girlfriend who's into astrophysics amphibian skeletal systems and rotisserie baseball.

You're right.

And I need a boyfriend who's into stuff stuff.

Maybe I should develop some interests.

Then I can join a club and meet a boy there.

You know, I truly mean this.

Today was the best day of my life.

And Lizzie McGuire, you are the nicest person that I know.

I never thought I'd say this.

My mother was right.

Great boys do come in odd packages.

Larry Tudgeman, out there there's someone really special for you.

Well, coming from my ex, I know that means a lot.

So, you think I have a chance with Miranda? Oh, perfect.

Sorry.

I want to talk to the stunt coordinator.
