Original subtitles

Could it get any worse?

My love life is nonexistent.

My parents are having a yard sale to sell everything we own.

Being poor and horny is no way to go through life.

I'm Anna. You're Felix's sister, right?

I was thinking about this whole "friends with benefits."

Felix with Brooke.

F.w.b.

Dan has a heart condition known as "hcm."

It's a genetic mutation.

Say, boyfriend, want to sleep over?

[ Cheering, applause ]

Do you have any idea how many guys in the room

want to nail your wife right now?

Relax. it's cool.

Peyton and I did a couple lines the other night.

Isn't that right, Peyton?

* I don't want to be anything

* other than what I've been trying to be lately *

* all I have to do is think of me *

* and I have peace of mind

* I don't want to be anything

* other than what I've been trying to be lately *

* all I have to do is think of me *

* and I have peace of mind

* I'm tired of looking 'round rooms *

* wondering what I gotta do

* or who I'm supposed to be

* I don't want to be anything

* other than me

Brooke: someone once said, "it's the good girls who keep diaries.

The bad girls never have the time."

Me?

I just want to live a life I'm gonna remember,

even if I don't write it down.

If I had known your mom was gonna come home,

I never would have stayed the night.

Not that I'm complaining,

but since when do you spend the night?

That was a one-time-only bonus for you getting me home from the club.

Now, come here.

Whoo! uh!

Where the hell's my bed?

"Got a good price on the queen-size --

single bed on its way. Love, mom."

I still live here, you know!

You know...

We could always shag on the shag.

[ Scoffs ]

The moment's passed, pool boy.

Besides, i have to meet Haley.

Got to say good call, Nate.

Road-tripping to Charlotte.

Gotta love that NBA expansion.

[ Chuckles ]

Third row, floor, right behind the bench.

Anyway, so, you take the cds you're sick of, or you never should have bought,

and you bring them back and...

...and they give me cash? Yeah.

Maybe I can buy my bed back.

So, Nathan's going to Charlotte for the night with Lucas.

So this is my first night alone in the apartment.

We should have a slumber party.

We haven't done that since junior high.

I don't know. I haven't done that since...Never.

Haley?! i wasn't popular in junior high.

No! then we have to. This is a rite of passage.

When did you learn to put on eye shadow

and stuff your bra and make out? I don't know.

I'm calling Peyton. This is gonna be great.

I was looking forward to having a night alone in the apartment.

And I was looking forward to being rich, but we all adjust.

[ Both laugh ]

Hey, what's up?

All right, what do you got?

Here you go.

All right.

Crap. crap.

Crap. crap.

Lucky for you, crap sells.

[ Scoffs ]

Did you listen to my demo yet?

Yeah, I did. It's -- good. I know.

I'm working on this other song

I can really use some female vocals on.

Maybe you can come by the studio and lay something down for me.

Huh. a track -- lay down a track.

Yeah.

Okay. yeah. Sure.

That sounds fine. How's -- tonight.

Let me get you the address.

Hello? tonight -- slumber party?

I'm sorry. Um, I can say no.

No. it's fine.

I'll come over early and set up. What do you mean, "set up"?

You have no idea.

Oh, great.

Hey, you're awake.

I, uh, saw you were gone.

I thought maybe -- maybe it was a one-night stand.

[ Groans ]

But it felt good.

You can one-night-stand me anytime.

[ Giggles ]

Where'd you go?

Breakfast.

Oh! how'd you get back in? The door locks.

I jimmied it with a credit card.

I should be afraid, right?

[ Giggles ]

Ah, chocolate croissants.

Those are actually for me.

Uh, there are two. I know.

The energy bar's for you.

Trust me. You're gonna need it.

Oh, hey! You look beat.

I was up all night. First college paper.

[ Laughs ] what are you doing here?

Go home. Sleep.

We need to talk. Okay.

Haley told me about the drugs.

Opening night, this guy Rick was doing coke.

Oh, uh, yeah.

Why didn't you tell me?

I don't know.

I'm sorry.

Look, I know he's got a lot of music connections,

and I know how important that is to you,

but I won't have drugs in my club, Peyton.

Of course. And I don't expect you to handle everything on your own.

But you have to come to me

if anything like that ever happens again.

I will.

Promise. i promise.

Good.

You know you can always talk to me, Peyton.

[ Footsteps depart ]

Well, it's another mechanic stripper.

No, just Lucas.

Okay, i guess we're off.

All right! Well, go, whoever they are!

Bobcats, Haley. Well, I love bobcats. They're so cute.

You're such a girl. I know.

Can we go now?

You saw her. She's back.

Come on, man, look.

This is the first night we've spent apart since we got married.

Well...the girls are having a slumber party.

Really? oh, that's cool.

So, you won't be alone tonight. What are you gonna do until then?

Uh, I'm probably just gonna hang out with Brooke.

Right, Brooke?

Yeah. just us girls.

So, find anything good in the lost and found?

Not really.

Okay.

How wasted does one have to be to go home with one shoe?

At what point do you look down at your foot and say, "hmm."

Ew, I was thinking the same thing about the two thongs in here.

Ew! two thongs?

Now, that is what I call a successful club opening.

[ Cellphone rings ]

[ Laughs ] hello?

What's so funny?

Oh, hey, Brooke.

Are you missing any underwear?

What?!

Nothing. Anna's just helping me clean out tric.

Thanks for the phone call.

Did you really want to get up and work this morning?

Okay, good point.

Tonight, Haley doesn't have a husband.

I don't have a bed.

So we're having a slumber party.

Oh, how retro. I know!

You bring the music and ouija board.

I'm bringing the beauty arsenal.

How about Anna? Can I bring her, too?

Whatever. 9:00.

This car runs great, man.

Yeah, not bad, right?

The best part is, Dan had nothing to do with it.

[ Chuckles ]

We do need to replace this tape deck, though.

Oh, definitely.

But, for now, I got my trusty iPod and cassette adapter.

Nice. fire it up.

It's stuck.

What?

Are you telling me you didn't check the stereo before we left?

I was busy working on the engine.

[ Mid-tempo music plays ]

* holiday

* holiday

what is this?

I have no idea.

* ice-cream day

* I am only happy

* when I have

* holiday, holiday, holiday

I thought I was going to have to fail you.

I know. It's been one of those days.

You're all flushed.

I ran all the way from the parking lot,

and, um, I'm a little nervous.

About the paper?

That too.

Well, look... The paper's in now,

so, um, how about dinner tonight?

I know this great place,

and we're past the hot dog stage.

I like the hot dog stage.

I know. That's why I liked you.

I'm ready for an upgrade if you are.

Okay. tonight.

Where did you come from?

Me? yeah.

Durham.

Got a husband and three kids there.

I'm serious.

We never talk about you.

What can I say?

I'm from the midwest.

I like my parents.

I sell real estate now and again.

And, uh...

Oh, I have terrible taste in guys.

[ Chuckles ]

There is...

One thing you should know about me, though.

Very important.

Okay.

I'm starving.

[ Both laugh ]

Okay, that's weird.

Haley?

Oh, my god.

Okay.

I think you should know i have a bat!

And we dialed 911.

Yeah, that, too.

Okay, on the count of 3.

1...2...

3!

[ Gasps ]

Aah! aah!

Brooke! Peyton! Anna!

Oh, my eyes! I'm blind!

Oh!

Oh!

Hey. I'm looking for Karen.

That's me.

You're Rick?

Yeah. what can I do for you?

You can stay the hell away from tric.

You're not welcome here.

I won't have drugs in my club.

Yeah? well, you won't have any customers, either.

I control every major band on the circuit.

You cut me off, you're cutting off your talent.

We'll be fine.

And, by the way, the place was full of kids.

What's wrong with you?

[ Scoffs ] dumb move, lady.

Actually, it's the smartest move i made all day.

What do you want from me?

I have no bed, and rug burns are so last season.

I don't know, Brooke.

Backseats, hot tubs, closets.

You've never had a problem before.

We were horny, okay? Ew.

Just promise me you won't tell Haley.

You are so washing the sheets.

Yeah.

Okay, who saw me naked?

I said, "ew."

Sister in the room. Hello?

Huh.

Hey, is this gonna work for me?

'Cause I got that combination skin.

You have to go. Go!

All right. Whatever you say.

Give me a second to get my stuff.

[ Sighs ]

Hi.

I'm Brooke.

We haven't officially been introduced,

but you're dating my ex-boyfriend,

and I'm sleeping with your brother,

so it looks like we have a lot in common.

Yeah.

Brooke. and you're Peyton's new best friend.

[ Sighs ] sorry. I forgot that part.

[ Water running ] is that the shower?

Felix: * why do birds...

Unbelievable.

* ...Suddenly appear

* every time Felix is near?

* just like...

[ Rock music plays ]

* dancing where the stars go blue *

* dancing where the evening fell *

* dancing in my wedding shoes in a -- *

Haley, hold up. I'm just not feeling it.

[ Sighs ]

Hold up a second, okay?

[ Sighs ]

All right, Haley, listen.

A lot of girls can sing on key, okay?

I'm gonna need something a little bit more from you --

something a bit farther south than your brain.

Listen, it's not about technique.

It's about giving me something of yourself --

something that no one else gets to see.

You can't play it safe. I'm not gonna let you.

Okay, well, I'm trying. No, you're not.

Yes, I am! No, you're not.

You're really close to something.

You've got the talent, but for some reason, you won't go there.

If you won't go there,

maybe you're just wasting my time.

Okay.

Come here.

Play it back.

Put me in this time.

Just follow along, okay?

Okay. [ sighs ]

[ Rock music plays ]

* laughing with your pretty mouth *

try this one.

* laughing with your broken eyes *

okay.

* laughing with your lover's tongue *

* lover's tongue

* in a lullaby

stay with me on this one here.

* where do you go when you're lonely? *

* where you go when you're blue? *

* where do you go when you're lonely? *

* where do you go when you're blue? *

* where do you go when you're lonely? *

* I'll follow you

* follow you * follow you

* yeah

* yeah, when the stars go blue

[ oven door closes ]

[ Sighs ]

What the hell is Felix doing in there?

I don't know. Shaving?

What, his legs? He's been in there forever.

Yeah, 'cause your look is so wash and go.

Huh! huh!

[ Door opens ]

Hey, guys.

Oh. Haley. Hi.

Smells good. Where you been?

Nowhere. I'm just gonna go take a shower.

Um...um...

Haley? [ Haley shrieks ]

What? oh!

[ Sighs contentedly ]

I love slumber parties.

I'm not always late. I promise.

No worries. You're worth the wait.

Thank you.

Keith.

Karen.

Hi. hi.

So...this sucks, huh?

What the hell. I got first round.

Drinks? yes.

Yeah.

Charlotte bobcats, here we come.

[ Rock music playing ]

[ Crowd cheering ]

[ Buzzer sounds ]

Oh!

Up top. Knock it down, Steve Smith!

Yes!

[ Cheering, rock music continues ]

That could be you someday.

Well, actually, it could be me.

You're not good enough.

Oh! hoo-hoo-hoo! okafor is sick.

Did you see that?

You know, I'm just not clear on this.

So the shower at your house is broken,

and you had to have Felix come all the way over here and use mine?

Um...uh-huh.

Brooke.

Wait a second. You don't have a bed, do you?

Did you...

Tell me you didn't have sex in my bed, Brooke.

I'm already washing your sheets. Oh, my god!

Uh, Brooke!

They already yelled at me. What is the big deal?

First of all, you did not thank me for helping you with the cds.

Second of all, you had sex in my bed!

And third, you ate all the brownies!

Actually, i had a couple. That's not the point.

Haley's right.

The point is that I've been deceptive.

It's not so much that I lied to anyone's face.

It's more about what I didn't say.

Uh! okay.

There is a big difference between a lie

and a little white lie. Really?

Yeah.

What white lie?

Nothing. Haley lied to Nathan!

Not exactly. Yes, you did!

About what? Nothing.

If we're talking about bad behavior, you might want to sit this one out.

What is that supposed to mean?

Peyton's the one you should be looking at, not me.

Why? she's not the one acting like a perfect little Stepford wife.

Why are you picking on Haley?

She's throwing us a slumber party.

Actually, she was throwing us a slumber party.

You just butted in. Leave her alone!

What are you gonna do, snort her?

Listen, I didn't throw the slumber party for you.

You threw it for yourself, and you know it.

Well, at least I didn't lie to my husband

about hanging out with Chris.

Well, Peyton did cocaine with that Rick guy.

Haley! what?!

You had sex in her bed.

What is wrong with you, crack whore? Slut!

Liar! uhh!

Ohh! ah!

Man...

Tree Hill's got some drama.

That was awesome.

Yeah, it was, man.

You know, if you want to drive back tonight,

I'm so wired, I'm not gonna be able to sleep for hours.

No. that's cool.

Oh, come on. You can see hales.

I can...

Crash the slumber party.

We can't. We got to stay the night.

Okay.

Why?

This trip wasn't just about the game.

There's something else.

Sorry about dinner.

Oh, please.

I'm hoping to break bread with all your ex-boyfriends.

He wasn't my boyfriend.

And yet he asked you to marry him.

Interesting.

Seems like a nice guy, though. He is.

Wow.

You like?

What's not to like?

You know, i have this print, too.

It's not a print.

Oh.

Well, I feel like I'm back in Italy.

Yeah.

I have a house there, too. You want to go?

I could blow off school for a week.

Or not.

Is it my company?

Oh, no. God, it's the paper.

I kind of pulled an all-nighter.

Spoken like a true co-ed.

Since you mentioned it, though, come here.

Let's just take care of this right now, shall we?

Oh, boy.

Let's see.

All right.

Congratulations.

You need more wine. Stay put, get comfortable.

You know, I think i should probably go.

Why?

I just...

Karen.

You know about Dan's heart condition.

It's called "hcm," and it's genetic.

Which means we might have it.

Yeah. it's serious, Luke.

It's common among athletes, too.

What do we do?

First of all, if we have it,

that's it for basketball, or any sport, really.

What does this have to do with Charlotte?

The test costs a thousand bucks.

There's a hospital here

that does free student-athlete screenings once a month.

And that's tomorrow. Why didn't you tell me about this up front?

I don't know. I...

I didn't want to ruin it.

The game, the road trip, us hanging out.

We have appointments tomorrow morning.

Ah, come on. What are the odds of us having this thing, anyway?

It's 50/50.

One in two.

All right.

I'm sorry I freaked out on you about the bed.

At least I have one.

I'm sorry i called you a liar.

You fibbed to Nathan. It's not a big deal.

No, it is a big deal.

Okay, cease-fire.

Girl talk.

Come on.

I should have told Nathan that I was gonna be with Chris.

The words started coming out of my mouth,

and then it was just too late to take it back.

You don't have feelings for Chris, do you?

No. it's just the first time I've ever wanted something for me.

It's not for my parents, it's not for Nathan.

It's just for me, and Chris can help me get it.

So, what's wrong with that?

Exactly.

I don't know why I should feel embarrassed for saying that I know what I want

and I'm gonna go after it, like...

Like a guy.

Nathan never apologizes or -- or lies for what he wants.

I mean...I don't know why i felt like I had to.

Haley, trust me.

You can go after what you want and still be a girl.

I know. I totally know.

And that's why this is so stupid.

And talk about stupid.

[ Sighs ]

Cocaine, p. Sawyer?

I'm an idiot.

Well, you're not gonna do it again, right?

No! no! Um...

I don't want to.

But...

I'm not going to.

Okay.

I'm really sorry. I'm sorry I just blurted that out.

I should have talked to you about it at the club,

but I just didn't know how to handle it.

No, it's, um...

It's my fault.

But I just really want us all to be good enough friends

that we can talk about this stuff,

you know?

Even when it's ugly.

Especially then.

So just like that.

We'll get the test, find out if we can ever play again.

Yep.

What?

It's just Dan, you know?

Tell me about it.

I can emancipate myself all I want,

but the guy still finds a way to control my life.

Hey, emeka.

You played a great game, man. Thanks.

So, how does it feel to be out there, you know,

finally making it to the league?

Well, it's a dream come true.

It's what I was born to do.

You guys play?

Yeah.yeah.

We love it.

You got to bulk up a little bit if you want to play in the league.

Yeah, he's skinny.

You too.

Hoo-hoo.

Yeah, well, he's got no left.

You got no range. What?

Please tell me you guys aren't teammates.

No, it's worse. We're brothers.

Right, bro.

You guys, roll strong and hit those weights.

Thanks, man.

Okay, so, are we going to talk

about your little arrangement with Felix --

the "friends with benefits" thing?

Do we have to? It's kind of foul.

What's foul about it?

I mean, besides Haley's linens.

Ew! gross!

Ew!

Sorry.

No. but seriously.

I know you're gonna give me your whole

"i can have sex like a guy" speech,

but it's crap.

Why? you think I'm gonna let myself get hurt again?

I don't know, maybe.

At least I'm having sex.

With a guy that doesn't even respect you enough to have a real relationship with you.

Anna, I'm --

I'm really sorry,

but everything is on Felix's terms.

I gave him the rider, so they're my terms.

It was his idea!

Brooke, don't you want to fall in love?

I do.

Someday, okay?

Why not now?

Look, tutor wife, I love you, but if it was up to you,

we'd all be getting our marriage license with our driver's license.

I'm not talking about marriage.

I'm just talking about... Falling in love.

And I'm tired of feeling bad.

Okay? I'd rather feel nothing. It's better, it's easier.

No, it is not better, Brooke. Like...

It's not you, okay?

I admire you so much for the chances you take,

but this just doesn't seem like you.

It's less than you.

It's just about sex, okay?

We both know sex is never just sex.

I love my brother, but there is a double standard for girls.

And I'm saying, "screw the double standard."

That's good, Brooke. You should say it.

And so should i and every other girl

who is tired of playing their game by their rules.

"Don't be too fat

"or too thin or too dark

"or too light.

"Don't be too sexual

or too chaste or too smart or too dumb."

Be yourself. But make sure you fit in.

[ Telephone ringing ]

[ Beep ]

Hello?

Andy: whatever I did, I'm sorry.

[ Sighs ] look, Andy, I'm exhausted,

and I don't want to say something I might regret.

Obviously I already have. Let me come over.

No. it's -- it's late.

And by the time you get here -- no.

[ Knocking on door ]

[ Beep ]

I've been trying to figure out what happened,

and I've narrowed it down to this paper

or, I don't know, you're psychotic or something.

And I don't think you're psychotic.

You didn't even read it, and you gave me an "a."

In your bedroom. I did read it.

You should know it doesn't deserve an "a."

I banged this out in one night.

It is practically my first draft. Karen.

Look, Andy...

This is important to me -- going to school --

and I have to know that I can do this,

and I'm not gonna compromise it by seeing you. I can't.

Your paper is good, Karen, and your instincts are great.

So maybe you haven't memorized every stupid textbook principle,

but you already have two successful businesses up and running right now.

Yeah, but I was rushed. I was distracted.

So maybe it isn't gonna be as hard as you think.

Maybe being a mum and a businesswoman has prepared you for this

in ways you don't even recognize.

Maybe you just need to have a bit more confidence...

...in yourself and in me.

Now, I'll have one of my colleagues

grade that paper if that's what you want,

but you deserve that "a," Karen.

And I know how important that is to you.

I know.

I would never do anything to compromise that.

Is Lucas home? He's in Charlotte for the night.

Where's this print of yours?

It's in my bedroom. It's in my bedroom.

Some night, huh?

It was pretty great, wasn't it?No, it was awful.

[ Giggles ]

But somehow with you, it wasn't so awful.

Aw, you're such a sweetie.

I just -- i feel so much better,

lighter somehow.

Good. 'cause you're gonna need room

for my strawberry ice cream and cocoa pebbles.

Thanks.

Okay, I've never had a problem that ice cream couldn't solve,

and I've had some problems.

Okay, I've never had a slumber party,

so I'm gonna say this sob-fest is over.

What do you want to do?

Oh, it is on now!

Come here!

[ All shouting ]

Oh, my god!

You sleeping?

No.

I keep thinking about Haley.

She must be scared about all this.

I haven't told her yet.

[ Sighs ]

Till I get the test results and figure out what I'm gonna do,

I want to protect her.

She'll probably be pissed about that,

but I think it's for the best.

We'll do this first. Then you go for the blood test.

Just relax.

You okay?

Yeah. are you?

Yeah. I was just... Thinking about my life.

Basketball's such a big part, Nate.

I don't want to give it up.

I felt the same way before I got married.

Basketball was the most important thing to me.

It was the only thing.

But now Haley is.

And I owe it to her to find out.

Okay, go ahead and lie back.

You're next.

I'm sorry.

I don't want to know.

It's a big risk, Luke, not taking this test.

You know the odds.

And what about the risk of never feeling alive again?

As opposed to never being alive again?

[ Sighs ]

There's more to life than sports. Trust me.

After my accident, i promised myself

I wouldn't be afraid anymore.

Of dying?

Yeah. of dying.

And living, too.

Oh. oh, I'm sorry.

I'm not used to having someone else in my bed.

You sleep well?

Mm. like a baby.

What?

I don't know. You just --

you seemed more attractive last night.

It must have been the wine.

Is that right? [ Laughing ] Yeah.

Too bad. You're stuck with me. Ooh! [ Laughing ]

Oh, I hope so! Oh!

Okay, stop, thief.

A thief breaks in to steal.

I break in with treats.

Oh. well, I've got something for you, too.

I'm training you well.

Wow. a key.

You can use it to come see me

or burgle the place or whatever.

Big step.

Oh, well, it doesn't have to mean anything,

but it'll keep my landlord

from asking about the hot cat burglar

who comes and goes, so to speak.

[ Groans ]

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, do you think there's such a thing as a sugar hangover?

Hmm.

I think what you need is a little taste of the snake that bit you.

Ice cream for breakfast?

It's butter pecan.

All right.

So... weird night, huh?

Actually, it was fun.

Thanks for inviting me, Peyton.

I was really worried about not making any friends here,

but...

I think I might have made some good ones.

And if you ever need someone to talk to...

Thanks, Anna.

I'm glad you came.

Uh-oh.

So, neighbor girl,

it looks like we have a few things in common after all.

I'm sorry I was kind of a witch before.

That's okay.

It's hard to let new people in sometimes. I'm used to it.

Well, don't get too used to it.

You're with us now.

[ Laughs ]

What is this?

Oh!

You're a mess.

I know you don't understand what I'm doing,

but I need to ask you a favor.

Okay.

If my mom ever asks if I got the test, say I'm fine.

And the same goes for Haley, all right?

If that's what you want.

Thanks.

Good. really good.
