Riley: Previously on Girl Meets World.

Maya: I like the way you used your fancy voice.

Riley: Thanks.


We have entered you in...

The annual mutton busting tournament!

You signed me up to ride tombstone the bull!

(Cheers and applause)

(Crowd groans)

You couldn't watch him...

Because you were afraid something would happen to him...

Because you like him.

You're my brother, Lucas.

And I'm your sister.

That's what you think we are?

How do you feel about him, Maya?

Brother and sister...

Riley and I are brother and sister now.

What does that even mean?

What does anything mean out the mouth of a girl?

I mean, I used to tell Vanessa, clear as day, "Vanessa, I'd buy you a house, and I'd be yours forever, and I'd buy you ice cream," you know what'd she say?

"I don't want you to buy me a house, I don't want your ice cream, and I don't like you."

How am I supposed to understand that?

I understand it.

Whoa. Gentlemen, look how lucky you are.

You treat 'em right.

Thank you, pappy Joe.

I see why you get homesick for Texas sometimes, Lucas.

I never knew that the sky had this many stars.

You know what else? I don't get nervous when I'm with you anymore.

We're doing the right thing.

Ah.

Remember when we couldn't even say "hi" to each other?

Remember how we'd go, "hi."

"Howdy." "Hi." Remember?

Now watch this. Say "hi" to me.

Hi.

Hi, Lucas.

What up, brah? What's up with you, man?

You good? You cool?

Hi.

Still got some catching up to do.

Riley, I... I don't even know what's going on right now.

What's going on is that we're gonna be the best of friends and care about what each of us has to say for the rest of our lives.

Yeah, I sort of thought we had that.

What does brother and sister mean?

It means... you know...

Poom!

Hey!

Ping!

Riley!

Ha, you said that just like a brother would.

Well, can I hit you back?

No.

Only you get to hit me?

Mm-hmm.

We're just like how you and Maya were.

Ha-hee.

You don't even do it right.

Oh! Maya, I thought you weren't talking to Lucas.

I'm not talking to him.

I'm talking to you.

Maya, are you seriously not gonna talk to me?

You could've gotten hurt on that stupid bull.

What do you think you getting hurt would have done to the people who...

Care about you?

I think you were gonna say "care about you."

I'm not talking about me. You think I'm talking about me?

Yes, I do.

I'm talking about everybody here.

All right.

Maya, Lucas is okay.

He didn't get hurt.

All of us are okay.

And we're gonna go spend our first night in Texas...

What should we do?

I've been reading about Austin, and they call it a music city.

They call it the live music capital of the world.

That's absolutely what we should do.

Show them the town and listen to some music.

Yeah! Anyone good playing tonight?

If I was a young buck trying to impress my friends, I might suggest chubby's famous barbecue pit.

Always good eats, always good music.

But barbecued foods aren't good for you.

Let me tell you what ain't good for you.

You're not gonna do anything to me because you know I'm a New York intellectual and you don't want to be a cliche.

Lucas, fetch me my shotgun.

Okay.

Lucas!

Okay.

Okay, I'll go to chubby's, I'll eat your food, I'll listen to your music, but don't expect a changed Farkle, hombre.

Coming with us?

Appreciate the invite.

I'm extremely busy...

As I found...

This chair won't rock itself.

(Country music plays)

While I understand barbecue is not your thing, Farkle, you do seem to have found a new appreciation for our hometown cuisine.

More.

Easy, cowboy. You need to calm down.

Oh, I have to calm down?

They make a big deal out of you riding a bull for four seconds.

Well, I ate him.

Riley: Maya...

Will you please say something to him?

I know that you care about him. It's okay.

I just don't want anything to change.

Hey, huckleberry...

Are we dancing or what?

Oh, we can do that? Is that part of the new rules?

This kind of dancing? Sure.

Maya, what's going on with you?

I don't know.

Do you know? 'Cause...

Help me.

Oh, you've done this before?

Never.

Then how are you so good?

Because I'm finally relaxed with you.

I'm not sure that's good news.

It is, Lucas.

I had no idea I would be in Texas just like I had no idea I would ever dance with a rodeo star.

The only thing I know is that I always want to be able to talk to you, and maybe that this is the best way to do that.

If that's what you want.

You know what I don't want?

I don't want to go out for a while and break up and not like each other anymore.

Isn't that what happens next?

Isn't that what people do?

I don't understand that, Lucas.

I always want you around and... Maybe the best way to do that is to be like brother and sister.

You didn't want him to get hurt because you care about him.

I care about all of us.

You care about him.

I care about all of us.

You care about him.

I will k*ll you.

I'm not gonna care about anybody for the rest of my life, all right?

I tried it once. Didn't work.

From now on, I like nobody.

Zay?

Unbelievable.

How's New York been treating you?

Good, yeah.

Just trying to fit in.

Making new friends...

Well, looks like you made some.

Wanna introduce me?

Yeah. Um, this is Farkle...

Texas lady.

And this is my friend, Maya.

You did not just do that.

What?

You did not just introduce your girlfriend as your friend.

(Scoffs) What?

Isaiah Earl Babineaux...

Your middle name is Earl?

No.

The next time you introduce your girlfriend as your friend, we are through. Do you hear me?

I mean, I hear you, but I...

Put your arm around me.

Twirl my hair.

Call me honey nugget.

Hi, honey nugget.

Hi, hunkalicious.

Vanessa?

Vanessa.

A little possessive, no?

Well, the good ones you don't let get away, you know what I mean?

With all the girls chasing him around New York City, you have to swoop right in or he'll be gone.

I said, "you have to swoop right in or he will"...

Isaiah Hank Babineaux.

No...

I don't care.

I only care that you don't let Maya get her hooks into you when you know you are mine.

This is my friend, Riley... now, how do you like it when he calls you a friend, Riley?

I like it.

No, you do not like it.

I do not like when you call me just "friend."

Well, what would you like for me to call you?

I would like for you to call me...

Cotton candy face.

Good girl. I know that was hard.

Zay, is it possible I've misjudged you?

It's possible, Vanessa.

How do you know my name?

Um...

Too much.

Too much.

Too much.

Too much.
Hey, everybody. Welcome to chubby's famous barbecue, home of the best ribs in Texas.

(Cheers and applause)

I grew up here!

Okay, well we're about to introduce two lovely ladies and one of them grew up here as well, about two hours down the road in sugar land.

Ladies and gentlemen, please help me welcome Maddie & Tae!

(Cheers and applause)

Well, it feels real good to be back home in Texas.

This first one's a love song...

All: Uh-oh.

And it's called no place like you.

(Cheers and applause)

(Chuckles)

You've just been sitting here, pappy Joe?

Oh, after you run around enough, you'll find that a comfy chair on your own front porch is your favorite destination.

Oh, by the way...

Lord Chesterfield's letters to his son.

What?

Lord Chesterfield had a son who traveled the world.

What is that? What are you doing?

It's a blackboard.

My daddy made you do this.

He's good people.

No, he's not.

Chesterfield writes him letters about how he should behave himself because a father knows...

The only way for a kid to really learn anything is to go out into the world and find out who he is.

My daddy is trying to teach us from beyond the grave.

Matthews wrote us a letter, didn't he?

He did.

(Chuckles)

"Dear my favorite children...

"Take care of each other. Enjoy the world."

I don't want this night to end.

What do you do around here when you just want to look at each other's faces a little longer?

Please do me the great favor of dousing these embers real good when you're done.

That house and me might be real old, but we ain't quite ready to b*rned down yet.

Well, I never thought I'd say anything like this, but...

I'm real sad I don't have a pappy Joe of my own.

Thank you, Maya.

I wish you'd consider me yours till the time I... I... you know... bleh.

Okay.

You guys were lucky.

How come?

To grow up out here...

To have this sky...

And the stars...

This has been the best weekend of my life.

Thank you.

Promise we'll always be friends no matter what.

Riley...

Promise.

No matter what happens, I am telling you that I will always be your best friend. No matter what.

Oh.

There's nothing I could do... no, there's nothing you could do, Maya.

Do you understand?

It's you and me until the time we...

You know...

Both: Bleh.

Zay.

Vanessa?

Pappy Joe told me you were out here.

You were looking for me?

I wanted to tell you I was sorry.

What'd you do?

I never really gave you a chance.

Now I'm too late because I could never steal you away from your new friends...

Could I?

Steal me from these people?

Hmph.

No. No, you couldn't.

What if I bought you ice cream?

(Sighs)

You know, Vanessa...

They're not really both my girlfriends.

Or either of 'em.

I think I knew that.

That's not what impressed me.

They're your friends who stuck up for you, so I must have missed something...

Or you must have changed.

Well, I've learned that people change people.

Hm, from beyond the grave, he's teaching us.

We're breaking up with you, honey nugget.

Let her buy you ice cream.

Vanessa, you made a mistake with this one.

He's pretty wonderful.

Well, let's go see.

Do you want me to buy you ice cream, Farkle?

What?

Do you want me to buy you ice cream?

Oh. Are you sure?

Yeah. Let's go.

Riles, where are you going?

You need to feel whatever you feel, Maya.

It's you and me forever.

There is nothing that you could ever do to change that.

Maya likes you.

Riley!

She's been hiding it all this time.

That's why she couldn't watch you at the rodeo.

What are you doing?

I saw you, Maya.

I saw how much you cared.

It's why she makes fun of you, I think.

Riley, what are we?

I told you what we are.

What if that's not what I think we are?

Well, then you better start thinking of us like that.

Riley, I...

Lucas...

We will always be there for each other.

You stepped back.

I know that you stepped back.

What's going on?

I don't know.

I'm her brother now?

Apparently.

You like me?

No.

Maya, why didn't you want me to ride in the rodeo?

Because I didn't want you to win and get all conceited.

I don't think that's it.

(Speaking with a drawl) I don't think that's it.

I don't talk like that. I just don't.

Why do you see me like that?

Of course I don't see you like that.

Can we just...

Can we just look at this fire, please?

Yes.

Stop.

Can we just stop?

I just want everything to stop.

It's been bad enough I've been keeping this secret from Riley all this time.

What secret?

You guys are so much alike.

I thought you were just like brother and sister, too.

Why?

You're at your best when you're just talking to each other.

Looking out for each other.

That's what I believed, but I kept it a secret.

And now the secret's out, so I don't have to carry it around with me anymore.

I just don't want to have anymore secrets from her.

So you don't make fun of me because you like me?

I'm just gonna watch this fire.

Maya, why do you make fun of me?

Because you're easy to make fun of.

Okay, then stop.

Because you're a huckleberry. Because you're a ranger... would you stop?

Look, if I had feelings for you, don't you think I'd just come right out and say it?

Well, I don't. So what I do say is har-har... why did you do that?

I don't know. I just... wanted you to stop.

Please don't tell my sister.

You couldn't think of another way to stop me?

Not at the time. No.

I'm sorry.

You don't have to be sorry, huckleberry.

Of course I like you.

You're a good guy.

If you got hurt, I don't know what I would've done.

I don't want to have any more secrets from her.

I need to talk to both of you.

You are gentle...

But when I first met you, I was scared of you.

I never told you that.

You wouldn't think that someone could be scared of you, but... I was.

And you...

Now, you always scared me.

You gave me nightmares from the day I first looked at you.

Then when I found out that I was gonna have a chance with you, well...

That was about the scariest moment of my life.

Anyway, I...

I want you to know that you're both an important part of my growing up.

I wouldn't be who I am today without either one of you, so...

Thank you.

But...

You guys are nothing...

Compared to Riley and Maya.

(Snorts)

(Bleats)

You ready?

Yeah.

Thank you.

For everything.

Good luck in the world, boy.
