[CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]
It's cooler each semester.
-Last semester, I regret.
-They're all making me mad.
It's totally true.
Your teachers are really cool. Trust me.
He did not. He did not say that.
[CHATTERING]
Girls, please.
Brittany, show Haley your shoes.
They're so amazing.
No way!
Those are so cute.
No way. I love those. Did you order them?
Those are so cute.
-You're so lucky.
-Those are so cute.
-Aren't they amazing?
-I am officially jealous.
I wish my mom would get me
something cool like that.
My aunt got them for me in New York.
They're one of a kind.
-Absolutely nobody here has them.
-You're so lucky.
Okay, Brittany, this is your stop.
BRITTANY: Uh, no it's not.
-Of course it is.
Not unless we got a new front door
and they changed the street numbers.
Are you sure?
Well, is this anybody's house?
-Nope. No.
-No.
[CHATTERING CONTINUES]
-See you tomorrow!
-Wait! It's almost 4:00!
-No. I'm sorry, but...
-Mom.
-Mrs. Hooper. Please, Mrs. Hooper.
-No. We're running late as it is.
Olivia, when I say no, I mean...
I'm home!
-Hi, Mrs. Aarons.
-Hi, Mrs. Aarons.
Hi, Mrs. Aarons.
Five minutes, and I mean it.
What's going on?
-Jordan.
-Ahh.
-Should've known.
-Mm. Yes.
-Move it!
-No way. I still have 3 levels.
Zap, zap. There. Done.
-Now move it.
-How did you--?
-It's taken me 3 months--
-Remote!

OLIVIA:
Yeah, yeah. Sorry.
[KNOCKING]
[HUMMING AND VIDEO GAME BEEPING]
Ow! Unh!
Heh, heh. I think you can safely cross
pop star off your list.
-Homework done?
-Yeah. Pretty much.
Ah, then this game is pretty much over.
-Mom!
-Better get started.
[SIGHS]
Jessie, homework check.
-You're kidding right?
-Humor me.
I finished 2 hours ago.
This is just extra credit.
It would be a lot easier to concentrate
if someone wasn't having
band practice next door.
[SINGING INDISTINCTLY]
Hmm.
♪ The door ♪
♪ The door is closed ♪
"The door is closed on."
The door is closed...
-Homework check.
-Um, my homework?
-Mm-hmm.
-Oh, it's fine. Really fine.
-Oh, the guitar.
-Mm-hmm.
Um, well, you see I was just
coming up with one of those, um...
pneumonic memory devices thingies
for my geography quiz tomorrow.
Hmm.
So what does "the door is closed on"
stand for?
♪ The door is closed on...? ♪
Well, that obviously stands for the States
that ratified the little known...
Beyoncé amendment.
Yeah, uh, door.
Delaware, Ohio, Oklahoma, r...
-Rhode island?
-Rhode island!
Yes. See? Exactly what I was going to say.
See how helpful this is?
Hmm.
"The door is closed on my dreams.
Life is being lived far away."
First draft?
I don't know what I'm more upset about,
The fact it's 8:30 and you still
haven't started your homework or...
Or that you really feel this way.
Brittany...
Are you really that unhappy?
Mom...
Uhh!
Must you be so dramatic?
It's just a song.
Ever heard of a little
thing called teen angst?
Please don't give me sad mom eyes.
Okay. Fine.
Do I want to be here where nothing
but nothing ever happens?
No. Or do I want to be out there where
exciting things are always happening?
Yes! Hardly a secret.
And yet I'm the one
accused of being dramatic.
If you want to do something with your life
why don't you help me
in my save Ashbrook House project?
So the complete opposite of exciting.
I recycled for you.
I sold candy to save the whales for you.
-I thought you did it for the whales.
-I don't know any whales.
Please don't make me help you save
a 100-year-old house that nobody wants.
Okay. Fine.
What if I promise to continue on with
my sad, dreary, boring, monotonous life
as if I'm completely thrilled by it?
Deal.
[BOTH PHONES RINGING]
[CHIMING]
Oh!
-Hello?
-Ah! Jordan Cahill's coming to town.
-He's filming his next video here.
-In the neighborhood.
Jordan's coming to town!
When did this happen?
How exactly do you know--?
Wow.
Bet you really wish you'd
finished your homework now, huh?
Heh.
[SIGHS]
-Let's go people!
-Don't forget. I have a rally at 3:00,
so you have to get Coo to karate
and soccer by 5:00.
And we have Jessie's science fair at 6:00.
Fairly light day.
Briefcase.
Oh, honey that looks so...
Complex.
Hardly, Mom. It's just recombinant DNA.
But I'm missing 3 nucleic acids.
Small, round, and something
you might use to play fetch with the dog?
Mom!
Hey, does this say, "Please, please,
put me in your music video"?
More like please,
please put me in a sweater.
Has anybody seen my brief--
Ha, ha. There's no way.
-Dad, please. Everybody's wearing--
-No. No!
A few teeth marks,
other than that good to go.
Oh, Mom, they're slobbery. Gross!
Have you seen what your daughter
plans to wear to school today?
Cute. I think she looks adorable.
Adorable? Ugh!
-Well played.
-Thank you.
-Check the counter next to the phone.
-Right.
-I can't find my karate uniform.
-Okay, check the dryer.
Mom, help! It's broken!
-Come on, come on. Cooper!
-But it's still wet!
Hang it out the window when I'm driving.
Come on we're gonna be late.
-Okay, guys, see you later.
SUSAN: Bye! Drive safely.
DAVID:
Okay. Remember your seatbelt.
Okay. I think this is definitely...
The one.
Hello? Oh, no!
Wait!
No. Kind of funny was the
first time it happened.
-Now it's just tragic.
-Welcome to the land of the middle child,
a couple miles west
of the Island of Misfit Toys.
-Brittany! Oh, my God, guess what?
-Jordan's here and we'll be in his video.
-No. Whatever.
-You said guess.
I went online last night
and found your shoes.
Uh, my shoes? You can't. See, they're only
from this one little store in New York.
That store has a web site.
They'll be here tomorrow.
I got 2 different colors.
I wanna get some too! We'll all match.
Brittany, isn't that so cool?
Yeah. The coolest.
[IN UNISON]
Good morning, Jordan.
My Cousin Minnie thought she saw him
eating at Doug's Diner.
-But I said--
-Excuse me. I'm 214.
-Cute. Is that your boyfriend?
-Ha. No. Not exactly.
That's Jordan Cahill.
Oh, right. Sorry. My bad.
Who's Jordan Cahill?
You don't know who Jordan Cahill is?
Afraid not. I've been living in Europe
off and on the last couple years.
Guess I'm not up with the latest trends.
Apparently ponytails are back.
I'll have to make a note of that.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
...so long story short.
But sports just aren't my thing.
I'll wait over there until you're done.
-Actually, sun's better there.
-You're on goal with Aarons.
-But I-- Could I please--?
-Hup. Hup.
Move it.
All right, let's go!
[BLOWS WHISTLE]
Hurry up, hurry up!
Line it up, kick the ball, let's go!
-Right through!
-You're supposed to try and catch it.
Yeah, right.
COACH:
Come on, let's go! Go! Get that!
Hi. I'm Brittany. You probably met
like a thousand Brittanys.
There's 7 in our class.
I was thinking of changing my name to
something more exciting. Paris or...
-Natasha.
-Right.
I don't know if I'm exactly a Natasha
I was thinking something like
maybe Arabella or Naomi or Francesca.
-Uh, no. Natasha's my name.
-Oh. I can see that.
It's nice.
What are my chances of getting out of this
with a dramatically twisted ankle?
Not good.
-Mrs. Dilamma's tight with the nurse.
-Color me shocked.
[WHISTLE BLOWING]
-So you really lived in Europe?
-Well, my dad works over there,
so summers, breaks, long weekends.
The rest of the time I'm with my mom.
-New York.
-New York City, New York?
I love New York.
Not that I've ever been there.
The whole concept.
I really see myself as more--
[GASPS THEN GRUNTS]
So what are you doing here?
I was horrible to someone in my past life,
my mother was transferred.
Ooh.
You're serious?
This whole athleticism thing
happens every day?
Yeah.
Oh, good. Only four and a half more years
until college.
Hopefully I'll get time off
for good behavior.
-So, what's the deal with this Jordan guy?
-Well, he's okay, I guess.
But everybody else is in love with him.
Well, who wants to be part
of everybody, right?
Right.
[SCOFFING]
I'm home.
Oh, good. You can help me
load this stuff--
Hello.
Mom, this is Natasha.
She's from New York.
Natasha, this is my mom.
-I'm just from here. Nice to meet you.
-Thanks.
-So, um, what's with the posters?
-Please don't even get her started.
She's trying to save
some old decrepit house.
I mean, local landmark.
We'll be upstairs in my...
Actually, why don't you let her
tell you all about it?
It is really kind of fascinating.
Natasha's socially aware. You are, right?
-You seem like it.
-She talks when she's nervous.
-I noticed.
-Okay. I'll be right back.

Hello.
Jordan's coming to Lafayette!
No way. That's just around the corner.
I'll be there in--
So...
Um, you remember that Jordan guy?
Well, he's filming just down the street
-and I know it sounds really lame, but...
-We should go.
Really?
I mean, you sure?
Yeah. Watching all of his crazed fans
make complete fools out of themselves
should be hilarious.
"Oh, Jordan, I love you!"
-Please.
-Right.
Jordan, I...
Love you!
-Wow, you're really good at this.
-Uh, thanks.
You know, I figure as long as we're here
we might as well--
There he is!
Love that hat. Picked out that hat.
The hat works. Am I wrong?
Jordan, hey. Perfect.
Exactly what I need you to do.
Check this out. Come on. Look.
You see your reflection.
You splash your reflection.
You turn to camera.
You strike a pose. You flip your hair.
You do that thing in the music video,
the girls join in, and boom! Big finish.
Next thing you know we're back
on the bus to civilization. You got it?
No, I don't got it, all right?
What does any of this
have to do with the song?
I said I don't want to do
any more strut-strut-snap
girls appear out of nowhere...
-Flip your hair stuff.
-I couldn't agree with you more bro.
That's why this time
we're keeping it real.

until after the hair flip this time.

Why don't you answer?
Oh, sorry my phone must be on silent.
Um...
Guys, this isn't my phone.
Has anybody seen my phone?

Everybody comfortable?
Arrgh! Why isn't he answering?
I just know that stupid roadie
who mowed me down has it.
He's not answering
because he's too busy calling China.
"Please hold." "Not a problem."
Not my phone.
Don't say that. My dad is going to lose it
if he finds out I lost my phone again.
Don't worry. He can't be hard to find.
He is on a bus with a national icon.
Well, they're staying at that swanky hotel
out by the freeway.
It's the only decent hotel around.
Where else would they be staying?
The only question is,
how are we going to get there?
I'm guessing a cab is out of the question.
True. But...
I've got the next best thing.

But he has to be.
No one by that name.
-No luck. He's not even staying here.
-Are you sure?
Yeah, that's what the guy said.
-Oh, please. Let me take care of this.
-What are you gonna do?
Just act like you belong
and don't take "no" for an answer.
-But what if the answer really is no?
-Excuse me.
-I just gave your friend an answer.
-But it wasn't an honest answer.
You've got photographers,
and reporters in the lobby.

My point is, one of his flunkies has
something of ours and we'd like it back.
So until we do we're not leaving.

I'm sorry to bother you, sir.
Yeah. Raisins get people fired.
Before you throw them out
give them a lovely parting gift.
They're only like the 1000th fan
to use that excuse to get
up here to see Jordan, okay?
Oh, we need Mayo too.
-Who was that?
-Some schmo at the front desk,
says a couple of girls were
trying to convince him that--
Convince him that what?
Hey, look! The thing! It fell!
Come on! I know you can
walk faster than that!
Oh, man!

You were in there forever.
Hey, stop those kids!

Doesn't matter though. He's here.

-I'm sorry. What?
-I'm sorry. What?
Heh, heh. You go first.
I'm sorry. What were you going to say?
I'm sorry for pulling that full-on
rock star act this afternoon.
Dude, you're a rock star.
It's what you do,
throw hissy fits, trash hotel rooms.
Do you think I was wrong?
That song is about nothing.
Yeah. But, I mean, it's got a good beat.
Something you can dance to.
you were singing in your basement.
I was backing you up.
Now you're singing in stadiums, man.
I'm backing you up.
-You got everything you ever wanted.
-Is this what I wanted?
Man, you are like the whiniest
rock star I've ever met.
Let me know if you want to change places,
-including dating Penelope.
-Penelope. Oh, thank you for reminding me.
Eddie...
Did you do something to your forehead?
This is a way nicer than mine.
You'd think somebody would want it back.
-I mean, TV, Internet access.
-You need a password for most of it.
-I had one like it when I lived in Madrid.
-You lived in Madrid?
My dad won't even let me have Spanish rice
because he thinks it's too spicy.
Whose phone is it?
What happened to your phone?
You're gonna be so busted
when dad finds out--
-Get out!
-Okay.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
It's you. I mean, it's your phone.
I mean...
-Here.
-Hello?
Thief, I want my phone back.
Return it and there will be no questions.
I didn't steal it.
I tried to bring it back and got yelled at
for being late for dinner.
-So if anybody is stealing, it's you.
-Whoa, hey, calm down.
I am calm.
I am calm.
I'm sorry. I guess I was just afraid
about it falling into the wrong hands.

All I want is my--
[PHONE CHIMES]
Um, hang on. I've got another call.
No, no. See, you don't have
another call coming in. I do.
Okay. Yeah, right. Sorry.
Do you really think it's her?
We'll call you back.
No, no. Don't, don't, don't...
Hello? Madonna?
It's her! It's her! It's her!
Hi! This is--
[LINE DISCONNECTS]
Hello? She hung up.
Maybe we shouldn't have
screamed like that.

don't you?
This is Jordan Cahill's phone.
Aah!
-I don't know why I did that.
SUSAN: Natasha?
Your mom's--
Here.
Brittany, yours is highly suspicious.
Thank you so much for letting me
stay over for dinner, Mrs. Aarons.
-Don't do anything till tomorrow. Promise?
-Promise.
-Promise.
-She promises.
Honestly. Let's go.
[GIRLS CHATTERING]
NATASHA: What part of reality
don't you understand?
All I'm saying is,
I just don't think you know Madonna.
That was me caring for one
second what you think.
Oh, but don't worry. I'm over it.
Natasha, you are so funny.
Isn't she funny?
[IN UNISON]
Yeah! Not.
Bye-bye.
Okay, first off you don't know Madonna.
You didn't even talk to her. I did.
And second, you can't tell anyone
about this phone.
It's like a total invasion of privacy.
I've been thinking about it all night
and we've got to give it back.
You really are impossible.
"Oh, Natasha, nothing ever happens to me.
Oh, Natasha, my life is so boring.
Oh, Natasha--"
Do I really say,
"Oh, Natasha..." that often?
The point, excitement falls into your lap
and you want nothing to do with it.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
It's him.
Pick up, pick up, pick up.
BOTH: Hello?
-Where have you been?
I called last night.
Why didn't you answer?
Sorry. Lights out at 10:00.
We know whose phone this is.
Listen, I am sorry for yelling at you
and I am sorry for taking your phone,
but can we please,
please just meet and trade phones?
Sure, no problem.
-But first we want to talk to Jordan.
-What?
[SILENTLY]
Yeah, fine, no problem. Sure.
Hey, Jordan, can you come here for a sec?
[IMITATING JORDAN]
"Yeah, here I come."
Hey, how's it going?
Okay, Jordan, just for security purposes
could we get you to sing a few bars of...
Your multi-platinum hit "Penelope."
The live recording,
not the dance version remix.
Yeah, sure, no problems.
♪ Penel-- ♪
Eh! Wrong.
They sweeten my voice in post.
[IN NORMAL VOICE] Look, you little twerps,
I need that phone back.
No Jordan, no phone.
For all intents and purposes I am Jordan.
I handle every aspect of Jordan's life.
Just give me back that phone.
Repeat after me, "No Jordan, no phone."
Fine. But can you at least
give me Gwen Stefani's number?
Jordan keeps asking for it.
[IN UNISON]
Gwen Stefani?
[SCREAMING]
SUSAN:
Save Ashbrook House!
Honk to save Ashbrook House.
This is what I get for not having
more after-school activities.
Well, this is what I get
for not having any other friends.
This place is so cute.
An island of hope in a sea of sameness.
Not exactly what I was going for.
Besides, unless my mom can generate
some serious community awareness,
next week it will be a gas station
and a coffee place.
Wait, isn't there a coffee place
two blocks over?
Yeah, but I could walk to this one.
Honk to save Ashbrook House.
Honk if you feel sorry for me.
[CAR HORN HONKS]
-Honey! Hey, good job, sweetie!
-Jordan's getting his hair done today.
SUSAN:
Okay, thank you.
-Highlights.
-So?
So...
[PHONE RINGING]
Hello, it's Louise.
NATASHA:
Oh, hello, Louise.
This is Natasha,
Jordan Cahill's personal assistant.
[WHISPERS]
Jordan's people.
-What are you doing?
-Yes, I'm sure you're very excited.
I'd like to go over ground rules with you.
Uh-huh.
Never look Mr. Cahill directly in the eye.
Always kneel before you speak to him.
And remember, he only eats raisins.
Got that? Oh, and, Louise...
he wants all of his hair cut off.
Yes. You want it all off?
That's right.
-Okay. Bye.
-Thanks. Bye.
No, no, no, not his hair.
We cannot cut Jordan's hair off.
Oh, relax. No one's gonna let her
cut Jordan's hair.
And voila!
Aah!
What have you done?
Raisin?
COOPER:
Thanks, Mom.
So I was like,
"There's no way I got one wrong.
Check it again."
And so he did, and I was right,
so he had to raise my grade
and lower everyone else's.
-Oh, honey!
JESSIE: I know!
I knew I didn't get one wrong though.
I mean, heh, you know?
-Dad, can I get a cell phone?
-No. Ask me in a couple years.
I want to get one of those new ones,
with TV reception and Internet access.
You know, kind of like that one
that Brittany-- Whoa! Whoa!
Are you all right? How many times
have I told you not to lean in this chair?
[PHONE RINGS]
-I'll get it.
-Sit. I'll get it.
[GIRLS SCREAMING OVER PHONE]
[GIRLS CHATTERING]
[SCREAMING AND CHATTERING CONTINUES]
Okay. From what I can tell
the world is coming to an end,
-and a boy named Jordan cut his hair.
-What?
And the golden mane is gone.
Let's hope his fans don't go with it.
No word yet from Jordan's
record company or management.
I can't believe we did that.
I can't believe they did that.
No, Penelope,
it really doesn't look that bad.
PENELOPE: Okay. I see it when I see it.
-That bad? Not that bad?
I am holding you personally responsible.
What did-- Me?
It's not Eddie's fault.
It's just hair. It'll grow back.
-Besides, this is how I used to wear it.
-Before you were famous.
Don't you get it?
The hair was the money.
Then dress it up
and make it sing your lousy songs.
Heh. Everyone has to have an image.
Part of yours was...
Oh.
Oh.
New song, new look, new image...
Heh. I'm a genius. Crisis averted.
"More Than Me" will be the premiere
of a whole new Jordan Cahill image.
We'll just have to have a
couple of days of reshoots.
Call Rolling Stone,
tell them if they give us the cover
we will give them the exclusive
on Jordan Cahill's new look.
You're still writing. You're now turning.
You're walking. Good. That's a start.
Cool.
So I guess I'm off the hook.
Eddie...
I know what really happened
this afternoon.
The salon said that someone called
from my personal cell phone.
Jordan, I can explain.
Thanks.
I mean, I was gonna tell-- Thanks?
All I ever do is whine about
wanting to make some changes,
but never do anything about it.
Half of my career has been about my hair,
and now it can be about me and my music.
Thanks for giving me the push I needed.
You're a good friend.
Well, yeah. Sure.
I mean, that's what I'm here for.
Oh, hey, can I get my phone back?
Yeah, sure.
-There you go.
-Thank you.
Um, it's not working.
Oh, man, my bad.
You know, after I called the salon,
and downloaded all your data
like I always do,
I must have forgotten to charge it.
I am such a fool.
Eddie. Eddie. Don't beat yourself up.
It's okay, all right?
-I'll call Penelope from the hotel phone.
-Thanks.
You know...
I really don't look half bad.
Whew.
[PHONE CHIMING]
He writes his own lyrics?
I can pummel you within an inch
of your life for being in my room again,
or you can help me break this password.
You know you've got dirty socks under here
that are older than I am.
Password.
-What's this guy's birthday?
-4-1-82.
[SIGHS]
You're in.
He uses his birthday?
Nah. He's over 14.
Everyone over 14 just uses
the factory setting.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
They're amazing.
They're moving and spiritual and sweet
about wanting to see the world,
live life...
They're about the same things
I write about.
You two were separated at birth.
See his version of "More Than Me"
is all about feeling trapped and isolated
and wanting to be different.
What are you wearing?
A little something I threw together.
-Cute.
-Thanks.
Anyway he misses his dogs
and his girlfriend
and he loves playing flying saucer golf.
Wait. What's that quaint little
expression you used before?
Oh, I remember!
Invasion of privacy?
Don't you understand?
See the Jordan we see
isn't the real Jordan.
-They're forcing him to do all this stuff.
-They?
I don't know "they." His people.
Like that guy who won't
give me my phone back.
-We need to help him.
-Why should we help him?
He didn't even call to thank
us for the fabulous haircut.

Well, not really. I mean
my grades were decent.
Thought you'd get away with this
and I wouldn't notice.
It wasn't us I swear.
-Remember I said I wasn't this smart?
-Mmm.
You gotta admit he seems happier.
Heh, heh, heh.
Oh, yeah. Warms my heart
to see him walk off the set
with a smile on his face.
Two years ago Jordan was a nobody
playing in a basement band
and you were nobody's friend.
One more surprise, just one more...
and back to the basement for both of you.
Do we understand each other?
Yes.
Excellent. Now I want you
to be a good little minion

[POUNDING ON DOOR]
NATASHA:
I loved it! It was great!
Did you really like it, Tasha?
It totally just came to me.
Serious. I loved it.
Usually it takes forever, but this--
No. I liked "through the open door."
It's a-- It's totally great.
Listen I think I hear a banana split
calling my name so I'll talk
to you tomorrow ok?
Bye.
SUSAN:
Oh, I know, I know.
How stupid am I to care so much
about a condemned old house?
DAVID:
It's not stupid.
A tad obsessive perhaps...
More sympathy less levity.
Hey...
Since when is it stupid to care?
You're fighting for
something you believe in.
It's one of the reasons I love you so much
and it's what makes you you.
Much better.
I just wish I could
make people understand
that that house...
Is the last thing that makes
our little corner of suburbia
the least bit unique.
An island of hope
in a sea of sameness.
You know the other day...
I pulled into the wrong driveway.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Really?
Well don't give up yet.
After the big rally on Saturday
-who knows what'll happen and...
-Oh, I know.
Seven people are scheduled
to attend Saturday's big rally.
Eight if I could get at least one
of my own children to show up.
Well I'd probably only count on seven.
Yeah.
It's all right.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
Okay, Brittany now it's my turn to talk.
This has got to end do you hear me?
I got a news flash, missy.
You're not helping Jordan.
You're destroying him.
Uh, this isn't Brittany.
I'm calling Brittany.
Who's this?
Uh, wrong number!
-You know him?
-I know Jordan.
Natasha I've got to talk to you.
I had the most brilliant idea.
-What's everyone--
-Do you really know Jordan Cahill?
[ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]
-Okay, you can tell me.
-Tell me.
So do you know Jordan or don't you?
Yes.
[ALL SCREAM]
I so wanted to tell you. I have his phone.
I know everything.
We made him cut his hair.
You did that?
Totally. Something had to be done
about that unruly mop.
-It wasn't even your idea. It was mine.
-The new clothes, the new look, all me.
I can make him do anything I want.
Oh, and I talked to Madonna!
So did I.
Can we meet him?
Please, please, please?
That's my brilliant idea.
Uh, wait. Where's Natasha?
Who knows? Who cares?
What's your idea?
You can all see Jordan tomorrow
at the save Ashbrook House rally.
[ALL GASP]
-Will he sing?
-If I say so.
[ALL SCREAM]
-What?
-That's the deal.
Jordan sings at the rally
and I give the phone back.
No. There's absolutely no way.
It's impossible.
He has to. I've already told people.
Well, that's not my problem.
But it has to be your problem.
Natasha where are you?
Okay, fine.
If Jordan's not there tomorrow
I'll erase everything on his phone.
Including his address book
his to-do list
-And all the songs he's written.
-No. You can't do that.
Those are the only copies.
I never downloaded them.
That's not my problem.
So 2:00, he'll be there?
-Yes. He'll be there.
-Excellent.
[PHONE BEEPS]
Whoops. Gotta go.
It's the girlfriend.
Hi, Penelope.
No. This is Brittany.
Let's just say I'm a friend.
Flying in on Saturday? Ooh, no.
Saturday's bad for Jordan.
I'm pretty sure he's already booked.
Okay. Bye-bye.
I just can't believe Jordan Cahill
-is really going to come to my rally.
-You can believe it.
We are so proud of you honey.
How'd you even pull this off?
This isn't really supposed to be
my night to clear.
Jessie, please.
Your sister's trying to tell a story.
[JESSIE SIGHS]
You just have to know
who to call.
I explained what it was for
and they were happy to help.
-I'm still amazed you even got through.
-I'm not.
You can be excused.
SUSAN:
Oh, I am just so excited!
This is going to be a real protest rally
with songs and speeches
and celebrities!
DAVID:
With all the press and publicity
the city will declare it
an historical landmark.
-Oh! This is going to be so much fun!
-I don't know if fun is the right word.
I'm guessing Jordan's gonna
be a little depressed.
-Depressed? Why would he be depressed?
-He broke up with his girlfriend.
Or actually they're saying
that she broke up with him.
No.
Do you sense we're not
getting the entire story?
Lately nothing seems to be going right
for the prince of pop.
He's now hairless loveless
and insiders tell us
his new video is behind schedule.
Is Jordan's reign finally
coming to an end?
No! We're supposed to be helping him.
Wow, you must feel horrible.
[GRUNTS]
[LAUGHS]
Hi, Brittany. I was beginning to wonder
if I would ever see you here.
Hi, um, is Natasha here?
I called a gazillion times last night,
she never answered.
She's in her room.
You can go on up.
-Thanks.
-Oh, Brittany...
I just wanted to tell you how happy I am
Natasha met you.
She is so shy,
sometimes it's hard
for her to make friends.
Shy? Yeah right.
By the way we're
going to have a barbecue
if you want to swing by tomorrow.
Natasha's dad's coming home.
Home? Here?
Of course here.
He's been traveling lately.
Paris? Rome? Madrid?
Actually mostly around Buffalo.
Stationery sales keep him
on the road all the time.
It'll be good to have him home.
Sure.
Been in Europe the last few years.
Rest of the time I'm with my mom.
Mom, this is Natasha.
She's from New York.
The city had a certain...
We went to tons of concerts
and the most amazing shopping.
I had one just like that in Madrid.
I-- I'm sorry, I just...
I don't know why but I thought...
Never mind.
[MUSIC PLAYING ON HEADPHONES]
-Hey!
-Why didn't you call me back?
We're in serious trouble.
Look, we're not in anything together.
Maybe I shouldn't have told people
Jordan would sing.
-But you've got to help me.
-Why should I?
So you can take all
the credit again?
You think I want the credit for
breaking up Jordan and Penelope?
Wow.
Is there anything you won't do
to be the center of attention?
Me... Me?
Your mom thinks you have no friends
because you're shy.
I know the real reason.
It's because you're a liar.
Me? Me?
What about you?
"Oh, I'm not really a Jordan Cahill fan."
Please. You love him.
"I lived with my dad in Europe.
I'm fabulous."
Your parents aren't even divorced.
Your dad is a salesman.
So? And I never said they were.
And I am fabulous.
It's the only reason you even talk to me.
I talked to you
because I felt sorry for you.
You talked to me because
you thought I was cool.
More like pathetic.
Okay, well if I'm so pathetic
how come you're so desperate
to be just like me?
Nice outfit.
Yeah. "I wanna be different.
I wanna stand out."
Well newsflash.
There's absolutely nothing
unique about you.
That's not true.
Calling me a liar?
Your life's a lie.
I should've never listened to you.
I should've just given the phone back.
Oh, like this is all my fault?
What is going on here?
Yeah. Have fun at your rally!

Do not yell at me!
I'm sorry that I kept the phone.
I am sorry that I said Jordan had to sing.
And I'm sorry that I threatened
to erase all of his songs.
I'm sorry for everything. I just wish
none of this had ever happened.
And I wish you'd told
me that an hour ago.
What?
Then I wouldn't have had to tell Jordan
the truth so he could sing at your event
then he wouldn't have found out his life
is being controlled by two teenage girls
then he wouldn't have disappeared.
Disappeared?
-What do you mean disappeared?
-That's it.
Okay. He ran away. He had enough.
And it's all your fault.
-Nice job--
-Wait! No!
This can't be my fault too.
-Was that him?
-Who? Jordan? No. He's long gone.
Okay.
Hey guys. We going somewhere?
Yeah. Going on a little field trip.
We're gonna find that
ungrateful little punk
before the press gets hold of it bring him
back here and talk some sense.
Just curious,
how do you expect to find him?
He has his phone on him?
Oh, yeah sure. Give him a call.
I already tried that.
I'm not going to call him.
I called the phone company,
activated global find.
High-end phones have global tracking
so you never lose them.
Well, there is a thing?
Did everybody know about this?
-Shut up and get in the car.
-Oh!
You got a minivan?
It's all they had.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
Did you find him? Is he ok?
I'm fine.
-Jordan?
-I hear you have my phone.
I am so, so, so sorry.
I never meant for you and
Penelope to break up.
Oh. Don't blame yourself for that.
We were breaking up with or without you.
Taxi!
And I love your songs.
I'd never erase them.
"More Than Me" is so beautiful.
-Yeah, right.
-No. The version you wrote.
I kind of might have accidentally
broken your password.
Not real big on boundaries, huh?
Again, sorry.
But why don't you record that version?
Well, that's the multi-million
dollar question literally. Taxi!
Uh, you're never gonna catch a taxi.
This is the suburbs.
Yeah. I'm starting to figure that out.
The record company owns
me and my next 6 albums.
If I want to record,
I have to record what Len says.
But you can't just give up.
You're Jordan Cahill.
-There he is!
-Hey!
What are you doing with Jordan's phone?
Chase her. Hurry up. Chase her.

Shut up. I didn't tell you...
-I talked to Jordan.
-What did he say?
He ran away. He's getting out of music.
-Because of what we did?
-Actually I think he loved what we did.
Except threats and extortion.
Pretty much everything else.
His record company.
They won't let him record
any of his wonderful songs.
That's so wrong.
Isn't he supposed to be singing
at the rally in an hour?
That's probably not gonna happen.
I was finally starting to like my life.
It could still happen.
But we've got to find him
and get your phone.
Not really worried about my phone.
No. I've got an idea.
Cooper!
-I'm never wrong.
-Later. Let's go.
Yes!
Jordan please just stay where you are.
We'll be there in like 5 minutes.

I hope it's something you'll pursue.
Someday if I ever get out...
[BOTH LAUGH]
You can be stuck anywhere,
you can't blame the location.
You can only blame yourself.
Suburbs are just
a state of mind.
[TIRES SCREECH]
Sorry.
-You sure you don't want me to maybe...
-I'm fine. I'm fine.
Thanks but if you could just not talk
that would be great 'cause I'm driving.
She has control issues.
SUSAN:
And legend has it
that President Truman
once used the bathroom.
And those are the 57 reasons
why Ashbrook House
is so important to me.
But it's already 2:3--
Actually I just thought of another one.
Ha-ha.
That brings us to number 58.
Where's Jordan?
Yeah. We want Jordan.
We don't care about your stupid old house.
Now just one minute.
This house is very important to me.
Jordan or no Jordan.
Did she just say "no Jordan"?
I knew it. We're so out of here.
Right. Like Brittany actually
knows Jordan Cahill.
CROWD [CHANTING]:
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
We want Jordan!
[CROWD CLAMORING
AND SCREAMING]
You're drooling on yourselves.
Hi. You must be Brittany's mom.
If you can give me just like two minutes
we're gonna try save your house.
Sure. Um, yeah. Just, uh...
It's that... Where you...
I'm Brittany's mom.
[CHUCKLING]
I know.
Congrats.
[TIRES SCREECH]
Uh-oh.
Trouble just arrived on the wings
of a tacky minivan.
Don't worry. I'll take care of it.
Isn't she fabulous?
Mmm. Not half as fabulous as you are.
Thank you.
-Mom...
-Mm.
Okay. Sorry.
MAN:
Ease up there young lady, ease up.
Thank you.
I'll take care of the press.
Exhaustion. Publicity stunts?
Ooh. Despondent over the
breakup with his girlfriend. Great
Sympathy factor.
Find Jordan, make sure
he doesn't go through with this.
Yeah. Uh... But how?
You're his best friend.
Should count for something.
Eddie, if you pull this off I'm prepared
to make you part of the organization.
Maybe even let you manage the tour.
-I'm on it.
-Mm-hm.
Come on Jordan.
The porch is this way.
Uhh. How can you be nervous?
You were on the Grammys.
Yeah. I know but this
is all about me.
It's... It's personal.
And it's a really good feeling.
-I'll be fine.
-Thank you.
No. Thank you.
Hang on just a second.
I forgot something.
I'll be right back.
Jordan...
-What are you doing?
-Just doing what I think is right.
You want to sacrifice everything
that you've been working for?
Everything that
we've been through?
You realize this could be the end.
Yeah, I realize that Eddie.
I'm sorry.
Fine. You do what you gotta do.
But I'm gonna do what I have to do.
Eddie wait!
Ladies and gentlemen, could I have your
attention for one second please.
This should explain everything.
I would like to introduce
my best friend in the whole world
Mr. Jordan Cahill.
No!
What is going on?
[CROWD CHEERING]
I'd like to thank everyone
for coming out here today.
I know this isn't the biggest cause.
It's not going to change the world.
But that doesn't mean it's not important.
We spend our whole lives
chasing after things.
"I'd only be happy if," dot-dot-dot.
But I think a lot of the time,
we forget what we're leaving behind.
Our past, our home.
What makes us unique.
This song...
is dedicated to what's
special in all of us.
It's not what's out there.
It's what's in here.

Things are pretty exciting around here.
Well we miss you too.
