03x14 - To Tell You the Truth

[bunniefuu]

Wow. You look nice. Yeah.

I'm going to go get van.

I've never picked up a
guy at the airport before.

It's gonna be so romantic.

Yeah, it's like
paris with nachos.

I am taking van to dinner to
celebrate his first away game. oh.

You know, this is the first time
he's ever come back from being away.

Hey, cheyenne. Can I go
with you to pick up van?

Oh, jakey, I don't
think you'd want to.

Why not? Well, when
van gets off the plane,

He's gonna see me, and I'm gonna
be standing there looking awesome.

And he's gonna drop his bags.
I'm gonna leap into his arms,

And we're gonna hug
and we're gonna kiss and...

All right.

Gross. You ruined it.

You really did.

Hey, hey, hey. I'm home.

Van! Oh. Hey, babe.

I was gonna come get you.

Well, I got an earlier flight,
and I wanted to surprise you.

- [Sighs]
- surprise!

You. Well, next
time you surprise me,

Tell me, okay? Okay.

At least we can still
go to dinner. Oh, sh**t.

I already got something on the
way home with my buddy who drove me.

That's great, van. You ruined
every romantic plan I had.

Well, mrs. Montgomery, mm-hmm?

I have some plans
of my own. [reba] go!

Go! Get off. [Babbles]

Go out to dinner before
you make me lose my appetite.

But I really am full,

And I'm not just saying that
like I do when you make dinner.

Well, you can just sit there
and watch me eat and talk to me.

You'd better be
entertaining. [doorbell rings]

Have fun.

Hello.

Hi. Is van here? Oh,
he just left. I'm sorry.

Oh, well, he left this in my car.
Could you give it to him please?

Thank you. Uh, whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa. Wait just a second.

Uh, are you the buddy that
van had dinner with? Yeah.

And you brought him home?
Yeah. I work for the team.

I'm kate. And you are? Worried.

[reba] ha, hey!

♪ my roots are
planted in the past ♪

♪ though my life
is changing fast ♪

♪ who I am is who I want to be ♪

♪ a single mom who
works too hard ♪

♪ who loves her
kids and never stops ♪

♪ with gentle hands ♪

♪ and the heart of a fighter ♪

♪ I'm a survivor ♪♪

So,

Tell me a little bit
more about van's jacket.

He left it in my car. Oh, so
you and I have a lot in common,

Because he left his
daughter in my house.

She's upstairs. She's a baby.

- [door opens]
- hey, mom.

- Hey.
- Hi, I'm kyra.

- I'm kate. I'm a friend of van's.
- A friend of van's?

What? Van can't have friends?

What's so weird and
suspicious about that?

We met on the
team. I'm in publicity.

And we had dinner because we're
thinking about doing a profile of van.

Oh, so you had dinner
with van and cheyenne?

I only ask because, as a
couple, they fascinate me.

Nope. Just van.

Just van. That naughty boy.

[Mouthing words]

Well, I better get
going. Okeydoke.

- Thanks for the tea.
- Mm-hmm.

All right. Bye-bye.

Bye-bye. Bye. Bye.

- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.

- I gotta go.
- Kyra,

Van had a business dinner
with a business associate.

Yeah, a hot one. [Scoffs]

Man, as soon as I move out, you
people decide to get interesting.

Maybe I could take the door off
and it would save you some time.

- Do you need somethin'?
- Where's van? Out to "sinner"?

Kyra said van went out
with some really cute girl...

Who returned
some of his clothing.

You never return the clothing.

I mean, what did cheyenne say?

- Well...
- She doesn't know?

- Well...
- He lied to my daughter?

Well, he didn't exactly lie.

He said he had
dinner... With a buddy.

Yeah, we heard. "A hot one."

- [door opens]
- I missed you more.

No, I missed you more.
I will be upstairs...

Brushing my teeth.

- So you guys had
a good time, huh?
- Yeah, it was great.

Except I bashed my face in
the salad bar sneeze guard.

My own fault. I sneezed.

Oh, must be nice to enjoy a meal
with your wife after bein' on the road.

Ahh, the road.

The lonely, open road.

Yeah, it must get
awfully boring...

Eatin' with your
buddies all the time, huh?

[High-pitched voice] I
don't know. You know.

- Does it?
- [Mutters]

[brock] uh-huh. well, then,
let's talk about the weather.

- Is it chilly outside?
- Yeah, it's all right.

Chilly enough you
might need your jacket?

[Normal voice] oh, hey, my
jacket. I thought I left it in...

In...

Oh.

Oh? Oh? That's all
you can say, oh?

Here's one for ya. Aha! Shh!

I... I told cheyenne I
left it on the plane.

She's right upstairs.
Would you please be quiet?

Buddy, if I were you, I'd be more
worried about where cheyenne's father is.

- [Mouthing words]
- me! I'm right here!

Okay, van. What's goin' on?

So I got a ride home with this
girl, kate. What is the big deal?

Well, the big deal is you made
kate sound like a brian or a tommy.

Or... Or a fred or a pierre.

Or a... Or alejandro.

I think you owe us
an explanation, bud.

Hey, we were talkin'
business, okay?

This profile could
really help my career.

- And that's it?
- That's it.

I mean, come on,
guys. You know me.

Do you really think I'd
do something like that?

- No.
- Sorry, van.

Okay, if it's all so innocent,

Why didn't you tell cheyenne
that kate brought you home?

[Scoffs] because cheyenne is really,
really jealous of other women.

In high school, I did this
report on margaret thatcher,

And she was like, "why don't
you have a baby with her?"

She's way more mature now, and I
think you should have told cheyenne.

- Well, is that how
you all feel?
- Yes.

Yes. No.

Well, all right, then. The
noes have it. Thanks mr. H.

How can you agree with him,
brock? He lied to cheyenne.

Yeah, to save
himself a huge hassle.

Oh. So you're okay with
someone lyin' to their wife?

Yeah. Are you comfy
with that, brock?

Look, I've never been
comfortable with lying but...

But sometimes women overreact, and
tellin' 'em stuff only makes it worse...

Uh... Except for you, honey.

- Lying in a marriage
always leads to trouble.
- She never has to find out.

[Scoffs] but because we
know about it, we're involved.

And there's no way I can look my
daughter in the eye and lie to her.

- Just put it
out of your mind.
- Oh.

Is that what you
do, brock? N... No!

Look, you're both
overreacting. It's over.

It was a jacket in a car. I don't
see how it's ever gonna come up.

It's a lie. It'll find a way.

Yeah? Well, it's still
their life, so butt out.

But... Out.

But... Out.

[reba] fine. china.

So van was just havin' a business
dinner and didn't wanna upset cheyenne.

That's all that
happened. [Sighs]

How did something so interesting
suddenly become so boring?

Hey, look. Van thought
he lost his jacket.

Interesting again.

- Who found it?
- Van's what? Huh?

Van's jacket.

What?

- Mom?
- Hey! That's van's jacket.

It came overnight
express from the airline.

They found it on the
plane and sent it over.

I signed for it and
tipped the guy five bucks.

So whenever you can get
that back to me, cheyenne...

Oh, sure. Thanks.
I'll go get my purse.

Wait a second. That's a lie.

And you came up with that
way too quick, little missy.

Okay, what is going on?

[Laughs]

Oh, this is silly.

And, uh, you're gonna
laugh your butt off. [Laughs]

Oh, you know, this didn't
come overnight express.

Oh. Yeah, uh, van's buddy
who dropped him off...

Mm-hmm. Uh, dropped this by
because, uh, van left it in her car.

Coffee?

her car? As in
"she"? As in a woman?

Well, I never thought
about it that way, but, yeah.

Wait, wait, wait,
wait. This woman,

Was she young and pretty,
or was she old and ugly?

Hey. Some older women
can be pretty too, you know.

Just answer me, mom.

Well, she was pretty young.

I mean, uh, not "pretty young."

I mean, she was
"young and pretty."

Well, wh-what did she
say? How does he know her?

Well, she works for the team.
But it's strictly professional.

Oh, my gosh. Does she sleep
in the same hotel as him?

Nothing good
happens in hotels, mom.

oh, cheyenne. I... I think
we're missing the point here.

What? Huh? The good news
is van got his jacket back.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah,
that is good news.

[disposal grinds] no, no, no.

[stops]

[Ripping]

Kind of gives it that rugged
outdoorsy look, don't ya think?

Oh, hey, mrs. H.

- Where's cheyenne? I got her some flowers.
- Oh, that's a good idea.

You might want to throw in a diamond
ring, a convertible and a beach house.

Well, I kind of blew all my
cash on the flowers, so...

Oh, wait! What for?

I don't know.

Uh, mrs. H, my flight
leaves tonight,

And, uh, don't make me say I wanna
spend some alone time with your daughter.

We know that both makes us
feel a little uncomfortable.

Yes, it does. Look, van.

Cheyenne knows that
kate brought you home.

What? I can't believe
you told her, bigmouth.

Ma'am.

I had to tell her.
I can't lie to her.

Well, what did she say?

Oh, nothin' much.

Well, I don't hear slamming. Are
my clothes all over the front lawn?

I don't know.

hmm. Maybe she's takin' it okay.

yeah.

Wait a minute.

I want your cheating clothes
out of this house. What? Why?

Because they're
your work clothes.

You wear them when you play
on your team, the gigolos. oh.

All right. All right,
listen up. Hold on.

Neutral corners.
Let's talk about this.

Oh, if he wants to talk about it, why
doesn't he just talk to... What's her name?

Kate. Mrs. H!

Kate. Why don't you just
talk to your buddy kate...

Over dinner with
your jacket off!

Okay. All right. All right,
look. Look, cheyenne.

I'm sure van is
sorry that he lied.

No, I'm not. Okay, well.

Talkin' didn't work. Let's
try some quiet time. Come on.

You know what? I was trying
to save myself from this.

And if I did anything
wrong, you made me do it.

Oh, so it's my fault?

Well, I know it's not
mine. I didn't do anything.

- And why am I supposed
to believe that?
- Why aren't you, huh?

I mean, I don't wanna
be with anybody else.

And I'm sick and tired of
feeling I have to lie all the time.

You know what? I'm glad you're
mom ratted me out like a mob stoolie.

- I'm relieved.
- Well, so am i.

Because I finally know that my
husband's a big fat lying fibber!

I can't talk to you
anymore. I can't talk to

You anymore. So why
don't you just get out?

Fine, I'm gone. Fine!

But only because I enjoy
taking long walks. Well, enjoy!

[Shouts] well, I will!

[Screams]

Seriously, I gotta
move back here.

I still think she should give
me the benefit of the doubt.

I mean, isn't it innocent
until proven guilty?

What she's doing is un-american.

Van, it's just 'cause
she loves you so much.

You know, when reba and I were
first dating, she was incredibly jealous.

once I didn't call her
for a whole week. Okay,

She never said anything about it, but
you could tell it really bugged her.

- Well, if she never said anything...
- No, no. You could tell.

Van, are you sure you don't
wanna go and apologize?

I mean, it's only a couple of
hours till your plane goes,

And you're gonna be
gone for three whole days.

No way, mr. H. I mean, I
need to make a stand now,

Or else I'm gonna be backing
down my entire marriage.

You told me that's how you
handled both of your difficult wives.

[Clicks tongue]

That's guy talk, van. You don't
do guy talk in a guy's living room.

Well,

There's the liar.

And the man
comfortable with the liar.

Okay, that stopped being
funny half an hour ago.

So what's for dinner,
sweetie? Oh, your favorite.

New york steak with baked potatoes
and homemade apple pie for dessert.

Oh, man. That
sounds great. Yeah.

Oh, I'm sorry. I lied. [Laughs]

We're havin' franks
and beans. Yeah.

See, I didn't wanna
tell you the truth...

Because you might
overreact and get hysterical.

Franks and beans? Oh, we're
having franks and beans?

[Mouthing words]

Hey, van.

I brought your clothes.

Thanks mrs. H, but I'm
already wearing clothes.

Cheyenne's
really upset. [Scoffs]

She's been locked in your
room ever since you left...

Watching the wedding
video over and over and over.

Now, doesn't that sound
like somebody who's hurtin'?

The wedding videos? Yeah.

I'm a little thirsty.

I'm worried, brock. If van
leaves with things unresolved,

This thing could
get out of control.

Well, if they won't get
together, we'll get them together.

Do whatever it takes to
get cheyenne to the airport.

You really think it'll
work? Well, it has to.

We don't want them to have
to go through the pain of...

Someone not calling
someone for a week.

And I think you know
what I'm talking about.

What? You remember.

Remember what? Come on, reba.

Oh, brock, we don't have time
for this. Let's go to the airport.

Man.

She's still hurtin'.
[Clicks tongue]

Thanks for the ride,
mr. H. But don't you think...

I should be gettin' on the
plane now? No. No, not yet.

Oh, look who's here. Oh.

Oh, so that's why you kept
me from gettin' on the plane,

Benedict... Judas.

Mom, we knew they were
here. That's why we came.

I came. I saw. Good-bye.

Cheyenne, you have a life
and a baby with that man,

And I paid eight
dollars for parkin'.

Now start talkin'.

My mom made me come
down here to say good-bye.

And I already said it, so bye.

There's an extra one for
the next time you go away.

Wow. That apology is so bad,

I'm startin' to
think it wasn't one.

i should not apologize to
you. you should apologize to me.

For what? I didn't do
anything. Van, you lied.

- About nothing.
- Shh, shh, shh.

I brought you down here
to make up, not to fight.

Now get over there and make up.

Yeah, and make it fast. They're
almost finished boardin'.

I don't know how I can make up with
someone who doesn't even trust me.

And there is no reason
for you not to trust me.

I didn't do anything
wrong. But you could.

No, I couldn't. Yes, you
could. Anyone could.

Cheyenne, why don't you
believe me? Because my dad did.

Reba, you like this shirt?

[No audible dialogue]

I'm sorry, dad.

Look, van, I just...

I mean, if it can happen to my
parents, it can happen to anyone.

Not to us. I will
never be like your dad.

Again, sorry.

Cheyenne, you're mad at your
husband for what your dad did?

Honey, I'm not even
mad at him anymore.

Really? [Sighs]

Don't get excited.
There's new stuff.

I just... I guess I saw what
happened to you guys,

And I was just trying to do everything
to keep it from happening to us.

I'm tellin' you, it's
not gonna happen.

Van, it's not that simple.

Okay, I want to trust
you. I... I do. I just... [Sighs]

It's not that simple.

I mean, I can't just stop
feeling the way that I'm feeling.

Cheyenne, believe me. You're
not gonna make our mistakes.

You're gonna make
a bunch of new ones.

Yeah. And forget about mine.

Honey, you won't even know
what half of your mistakes are.

Until one day, you're drivin' your
daughter down to the airport...

To make up with her
boneheaded husband,

Just to find out it was
somehow your fault.

And then we'll tell
elizabeth, "no, no, no.

It was grandpa's fault."

- Sorry, last time.
- Ah.

Hey, van, it's about
time to go. Hi, reba.

And you must be cheyenne.
I'm kate. It's so nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you too.

All right. Well, I'll see
you on the plane. Yeah.

Yeah.

Look, cheyenne.

This is my career
and everything,

But I won't go if
you don't want me to.

You won't? No way.

What happens to us is way
more important than our future.

Go ahead.

Yeah? Yeah.

So wait. Do you... Do you trust
me? Well, I'm gonna work on it.

Travel safe, and I'll be here
to pick you up when you land.

I love you. I love you.

Okay, let's go.

Huh?

[Laughs]

I couldn't fix it, so
I made it into a vest.

acme! [Coughing]
