[Miles clears throat]

"Roses are red...

Violets are blue...

This assignment sucks...

and Tristan also sucks."

You know, if you wanted
to be class president so bad,

-you just shouldn't have cheated.
-Just drop it already.

All right, all right.
Everyone just chill.

Uh, yeah, you're gonna redo that...

and I want it done tomorrow.

What? Why?

I asked you to write about
somethin' you care about,

not picking fights
with your classmates.

[bell rings]

Hey, let's get to the caf before
all the good slices are gone.

Floating in the pool
with a glass of single malt

is more what I had in mind.
You in?

Uh, I'm not skipping.
It's the second week of school.

Hmm, your loss.

[thudding]

Mom?

[Mrs. Hollingsworth inhales and giggles]

[kissing]

[Mrs. Hollingsworth laughs] Oh!

[Zoë] What are you talking about?

Scandal should totally
be your favorite show.

[chuckles] The computer stuff
is completely unbelievable.

But there's so much torture.
You love torture.

-[both chuckle]
-What will your life be like in 15 years?

That's what I want you to show me
in your first assignment.

In groups of two,
you're going to use

the animation skills
you've been learning

to create a short video about
what you think your future looks like.

-Pair up!
-[indistinct chatter]

Wonder who Maya and Zig
are working with.

[scoffs] I think they have seizures

if they're more than five feet
from each other.

[both laugh]

So, uh... did you maybe wanna be
my partner for this?

Of course, dummy!

I'll, uh, go grab a handout.

-That'll be fun.
-[both giggle]

So, how's that whole "just being friends"
thing working out for you?

Fine, why?

"Oh, Grace,
please be my partner.

I simply can't live without you."

-[scoffs]
-Give it up. You love her.

A little louder please. I don't think
the people in the back heard.

Life's better out of the closet, Zo.

-I don't even know if I'm gay.
-Right. [chuckles]

[Zoë] I'm totally fine
with just being friends.

Besides, friendship
is basically dating, without--

[Tristan] The good parts?

You need to make
your feelings known.

And if she's not into girls,
then sayonara.

[clicks tongue] Look at her.
That hair,

those piercings... [laughs]

There is no way she's doing that
to attract boys.

Shut up, please.

[sighs]

Okay... I'll watch Scandal
if you watch Battlestar.

Deal?

-Deal.
-[both laugh]

Don't worry, I'll help you.

-We'll just like, tutor, hang out.
-You sure?

Yeah, it's like hanging out,
except we--

Oh...

So, what do you think?

Uh... it's so... different.

-What's wrong with you?
-What do you mean what's wrong with me?

Changing your hair is a cry for help.
Everyone knows that.

And you've been different
since Winston broke up with you.

-I just wanted a new look for this year.
-[Lola] Are you sure?

Because you've been really sad.

I'm fine.

Why don't we go out tonight?
Maybe you'll meet a cute boy.

-I've got hats you can borrow.
-Thanks. [chuckles]

I've already got other plans.

So, how were they doing it?

I already told you.
I couldn't see the dude's face.

What does that even mean?

-Were they like...
-No! Stop.

I'm not gonna recount the details
of walking in on my mom...

doing that.

Hey, at least this means your mom's
not getting back together with your...

lousy dad.

You can say "abusive."
He's earned it.

Seriously.

After everything
he's put our family through, like...

I couldn't handle that.

So, maybe there's a silver lining
to walking in on your mom getting--

No! I think I have PTSD.

I want to murder
that random my mom was with.

Reasonable.

I think that cutting the brakes on his car

might really help me heal
from this trauma.

-That's what I'm talking about.
-Or maybe decapitation?

I have some antique swords
kicking around the house.

[laughs] Well, there you go.

I've also heard that bathing
in the blood of your enemies

-is very therapeutic.
-Hmm.

[buzzer rings]

Your turn for institutionalized torture.

So, are you gonna tell
your brother and sister?

Nah, if my mom is having a fling,

Frankie and Hunter
don't need to know.

I'm just gonna forget what I saw.
Or, you know... murder.

[whistle blows]

[Grace giggling]

What color do you think
your hair'll be in 15 years?

-[scoffs] No clue.
-What about those piercings?

Do you think they'll be
all stretched out and weird-looking?

-[scoffs]
-[laughing]

[coughs]

You okay?

Whoa, what'd you do?

[scoffs] I just made a dumb joke
about her piercings.

-[Maya] Uh-oh.
-What "uh-oh"?

Well, you just don't want
to get on Grace's bad side.

What are you talking about?
She's just a weirdo.

[Maya] I spilled soda
near her laptop once

and she didn't talk to me
for like, three weeks.

Nah, Grace is always going AWOL
for no reason. Just chill.

Okay, that is not chilling.

I'm just texting her.
Maybe it wasn't about what I said.

Who wants breast?

-[sputters]
-[Mrs. Hollingsworth] It's very juicy.

[sighs] I'm gonna eat in my room.

-Me, too.
-[Mrs. Hollingsworth] Sit down...

both of you.

We are going to have

a nice meal together
and we're gonna talk about our days.

So...

what'd everyone do at school?

I don't know why
you're in such sour moods.

I had a great day.
I tried a new Zumba class.

-I feel very invigorated.
-Why don't we talk

about Frankie's midlife-crisis hair?

Why don't you shove it?

Ugh, so much for a nice family dinner.

[cell phone vibrating]

Dude, what's your problem?
Your weirdo stat's been up today.

[chuckles]

[stammering] Look, well, this morning,
I-- I kinda--

[Mrs. Hollingsworth]
That was the school. Uh...

They want us to come and talk
to Principal Simpson tomorrow.

-[chuckles] What'd you do now, idiot?
-For once, I have no idea.

Apparently you threatened another student.

What?

[sighs]

I think I'm here.

And for the record,
this is a bad idea.

I have to explain the hand touch

wasn't a big deal
before she blows it out of proportion.

Yeah, showing up at her house unannounced
will totally send that message.

[sighs] Thanks for the pep talk.
Text you later.

-[sighs]
-[rings doorbell]

Hi, can I help you?

I'm Zoë. [chuckles]

A friend of Grace's.

Oh, um...
Grace isn't home.

-Do you know when she'll be back?
-Sorry. [chuckles nervously]

[Zoë sighs]

[sighs]

[sobbing]

[cell phone chimes]

[sniffles]

You're the only one who thinks so.

[chuckles softly]

[student on PA]
Attention Degrassi students.

If you haven't already done so,
please pick up your parking pass

here at the office.

You must do so
by the end of the week.

Thank you!

Hi. [sighs]

Oh, so now you want to talk to me?

[inhales deeply] I finished
the backgrounds for our project.

I'm sure you had lots of free time
at home last night.

Are you seriously just gonna stand there
and pretend like nothing happened?

[coughs]

[stutters] You don't know the whole story.

What's the whole story?

That you're such
an emotionally damaged psycho,

-you can't even handle one little touch?
-[coughing]

[continues coughing]

[Zoë] Oh, my God.
Is that blood?

-I'm calling 911.
-You don't have to call an ambulance.

[stutters] Can you just take me home?

[cat meows]

[Frankie] You really know
how to cheer me up.

[cell phone chimes]

[Frankie] My friends
don't understand like you do.

They want me to paste on a happy face.

But...

I feel like nothing will ever be the same.

[cell phone chimes]

That's so dark.

You guys catfished me?

-Crap.
-We didn't mean to.

Oh, okay, so you just accidentally
made a fake account,

and then accidentally
commented on my picture,

and then accidentally
had super-long conversations with me?

You wouldn't talk to us.

We wanted to know
what was going on with you.

You dyed your hair.

We thought you might...

kill yourself.

That is the stupidest thing
I have ever heard.

[Shay] We were worried about you.

We thought you didn't want to be friends
with us anymore.

Maybe I don't.

[sighs]

So is this about what I said
in English class?

Because Mr. Mitchell asked us
to talk about our feelings.

[Miles] ...cutting the brakes to his car

would really help me heal
from this trauma.

[Winston] That's what I'm talking about.

Maybe decapitation?

There are some antique swords
kicking around the house.

[Winston] There you go.

Where did you even get that?

Someone put it on Hastygram
and it was reposted hundreds of times.

-A student brought it to my attention.
-Why? [laughs]

Because people are concerned
about what you're saying.

I need to know
who you're talking about, Miles.

I can't make jokes
with my friend in a private moment?

Not about those things
and not on school property.

You actually think I'm capable
of murdering someone?

You were very upset
about what happened with the election.

-Were you talking about Tristan?
-No.

Well, if you won't tell us...
then I have to suspend you.

Oh, come on, Miles.

Just tell us who you were talking about.

-No, thank you.
-[Mrs. Hollingsworth] Really?

After everything
this family has been through,

you're gonna get in trouble again
because you won't own up

to your irresponsible behavior?

I was talking about the random guy
I saw you with at our house.

What were you doing home
in the middle of the day?

So, this seems like it's a family matter.

Um... maybe I should step out.

No, let me.
Maybe you two will hit it off.

[Mrs. Hollingsworth sighs]

-[sobbing]
-[door opens]

[door closes]

This room's occupied. [sniffles]

I need to practice.

-Well, I need to--
-Cry into your coffee?

Pretty sure you can do that anywhere.

Not that it's any of your business...

but my friends catfished me.

I don't care.

You know,
until I figured out it was them...

it was kinda nice
having someone who got it.

Okay, but that someone
was actually your friends.

-So... they do get it.
-No, they don't.

[sighing]

They just want me to go back
to who I was before.

Before what?

Before my whole life exploded.

I guess they just...
think I'm different now.

Are you?

Yeah, nothing's...
black and white anymore.

It's, uh... it's like
nothing makes sense.

[voice breaking] I think my friends like
the old me better.

Then get new friends.

I don't want new friends.

Then go talk to your old ones.

Either way, can...
can you get out of here?

[coughing]

-Deep breaths, sweetheart.
-[inhaling]

The nurse will be here soon.

[Zoë] What's going on?

It might be an infection,
but it might just be

because she's been a little lax
with her therapy.

Her therapy?

Oh, you don't know.
[takes deep breath]

Grace has cystic fibrosis.

Cystic fibrosis... But...
[chuckles nervously]

not the one that kills you, right?

[sighs] There's only one kind.

But there have been lots of advances
with the research.

But... when she's old, right?

Not like... soon, or now, or anything?

We're keeping an eye on it.

And we've got a great team
to make sure that Grace stays healthy.

Lots of people with CF
live well into their 30s.

And with more and more therapies
and medicines being developed...

there's no reason to believe
that she won't make it into her 50s.

By turning our backs on the dolphins...

we've really
turned our backs on ourselves.

All right!

[students laughing]

So... what'd you guys
think of Tiny's piece?

Dude likes his marine life.

Very astute, Winston.

What did it make you think about?

I mean, how did it make you feel?

-I want us to have these conversations.
-[muttering] Yeah, right.

Miles?

You got something to share?

It's just a bunch of crap.

You don't wanna know how we feel.

'Cause when people ask you
to "express your feelings,"

they don't mean your actual feelings.

They mean the feelings
that they want you to have.

Because people can't deal with
dark, or scary, or weird.

They want you to smile and say,
"Yeah, I'm fine. Everything's great,"

because then they can just go on
with their boring lives,

and never think about you again.

-[lone student applauds]
-[students murmuring]

You're gonna give me
two pages on anything.

Shock me.
Surprise me.

If it's anything like that,
you'll get yourself an A.

Okay, where's my feedback
on Tiny's piece?

So you got my text.
I thought we should talk.

[sighs] On the roof of the school?

I thought you'd want privacy.

-About yesterday--
-No need to explain.

I was up all night, researching.

If you ever want to talk about anything,
I'm here.

[sighs]

-What's this?
-Green smoothie

with ginseng, clove,
and cinnamon, all of which

are super anti-bacterial,
to help fight off those lung infections.

This won't do anything.

Have you heard about
that crazy new drug?

People with CF who take it
are living into their 70s.

It's for a different genetic mutation.
It won't work for me.

Well, there are lots of
alternative therapies.

I mean, I personally think
that hot yoga is disgusting, but--

Stop it!

-You say you wanna talk?
-[stutters] I do.

But not about
how I'm going to die before 35!

About how there's no point in anything
because I've got one foot in the grave!

With what you're up against,

it probably feels like
everything is pointless.

You're finally getting it.

So jump.

What?

You've already decided
that your life is over.

You could have 20 more years,
but you've already given up.

You're basically dead,
so you might as well just kill yourself.

[sighs]

You know...

I think you're right.

-I am?
-You've given me a new lease on life.

I think I'll go to med school
and dedicate my life to curing CF.

I was just trying to prove
that you've got stuff to live for!

Shut up!

My whole life has been people
telling me to stay positive!

Everyone wants to talk about
insane miracle cures,

but no one wants to talk about
how I'm going to die!

-Because maybe you won't!
-Because people can't handle it!

In middle school,
I was hospitalized for a month.

In the beginning, people came to see me.
But by the end?

Nothing.

-That's awful.
-This is why I don't do relationships.

Hard to commit when you're one
lung infection away from the end.

I've just accepted
that there won't be anyone at my funeral.

-Don't say that!
-Why not?

It's the truth.

People just can't deal.

I guess I thought you were different.

[speaking Spanish]

Hey!

See, I told you it'd work.

What did I tell you about
doubting my abuelita?

I'm sorry I freaked out on you guys,
but what you did was not cool.

We know and we're sorry.

It's just that this summer...
was a tidal wave of misery.

And then my friends,

the only two people
left in the universe that I trust,

go and catfish me.

You can trust us now.

It's just, we didn't know what else to do.
You weren't talking to us and...

you were doing some...
pretty self-destructive things.

Okay, well, I wanted to look different,

because after everything
I've been through,

I feel different.

But it's like you guys want me to go back
to the same as how I was before.

We want you to be happy.

But we're okay with you however you are.

-Right, Lo?
-Hmm.

[chuckles] It's okay.
I know the hair isn't working.

Oh! Okay, good,

'cause other than that,
I totally love and accept you.

How about hangouts after school?

We promise to listen.
Zero judgment.

And what do I do about this?

I already made an appointment
with my colorist.

[laughs]

[sighs happily]

So, as you can see,
this is me cheering Maya on,

as she headlines for Coachella.

So that makes you her groupie?

No, that makes him my number one fan,

-and maybe, personal chef?
-Oh.

So, your servant?

Oh, my God! [laughs]

All right, next up, uh...

Zoë and Grace.

So, we're taking an F on this?

Not quite.

The future is uncertain.

Who knows where we'll be in 15 years?

Statistically,
one person in this room

-will be in prison...
-[chuckles]

My money's on Zig.

...and two will be dead.

Given her bad-ass lifestyle,

I assume Grace
will be one of these people.

[thunder rumbling]

Here is me wearing vintage Valentino
at her funeral.

-[animated Zoë crying]
-[Grace scoffs]

Morbid much?

[Ms. Grell] All right, um...

thank you, Zoë.

Uh, while Carter's setting up
for his presentation,

I'd like to go over
the evaluation...

You don't suck as much
as most people.

[chuckles]

Thanks... I think.

There are, like,
five swear words in the first line.

You can't do that
in an English assignment.

Mr. Mitchell told me he wanted me
to "shock and surprise him,"

so I'm going for, like,
a Chuck Palahniuk kind of vibe.

All right.

[Frankie gasps]

I'm sure military school
is lovely this time of year. [chuckles]

All right, did you two come out here
just to bug me, then?

No, Mom wants to talk to us.

What's that look?

Nothing, just buckle up, man.

[exhales]

Is everything okay?

[sighs]

I've been meaning to talk with you guys
about this for a while,

but, uh, frankly,
it's not an easy conversation to have.

The truth is...

I've been seeing someone.

Who is it?

It's your father.

[Hunter] Is he moving back in?
[Mrs. Hollingsworth] No, but we...

-we're really working toward that.
-Screw this.

Miles? Miles, don't go!

[sighs]

[folk song playing]
