- My mom always says

that you can never make everyone happy.

Like, fine, okay, I hear you,

but what if I could?

Oh yay, you're here!

- Aw. (laughing)

- Okay, did you bring everything on the list?

- Um, let's see.

Apples, oats, and brown sugar.

Are we making a crumble? - Ooh, yum!

But no, let's pin that for later.

- I don't care if we spend the whole afternoon

scrubbing floors, okay?

As long as we get to spend together.

Just the two of us.

Lately, something or someone

has been getting in the way of that.

- Ugh, I know.

But I hate to break it to you,

it won't be just the two of us. - Seriously?

- What? Look, if we're going to be together,

you have to accept the fact that I'm kind of

part of a package deal.

- A package deal with who? (laughing)

- My horse Snooker Doodle.

(horse neighing)

- Like a horse, horse?

- Yeah. Why? Are you afraid of horses?

- It's just, they're so tall

and, you know, why are their teeth so big?

- To chew on the apples that you brought them.

Oh. (phone vibrating)

- Let me guess, Justin?

- Yeah, he has a few new ideas for a song

that he wants to share. - Hmm.

- I'll just tell him we're on a date.

Okay, now where were we? Um...

(phone vibrating)

He's worried he'll forget them

if he doesn't share them right away.

- So they can't be that good then, right?

- You don't like Justin.

- I don't trust him. I think Justin is interested

in a little more than just your songwriting ability.

- No, that's silly, are you kidding me?

He could have like any celebrity he wants.

- But you're the girl he's hanging around right now.

- Okay, look. I promise Justin will never come between us.

(horse neighing)

- Hey, Holly.

Thought I'd find ya here. Ready to get to work?

- Except maybe now.

- You hate it, don't you?

- No! No, not at all.

- It's about a guy who has feelings for a girl,

but she sees him as just a friend.

- Interesting.

And this is something that's happened to you?

- All the time. I don't know how it should end.

- I think that the boy should respect

that the girl has a boyfriend.

- Hold on, I never said she has a boyfriend.

You think this song is about you?

- What, ha! No! No, no, no, no.

That would be, that'd be silly.

- What's going on with you today?

You seem kind of freaked out.

- Oscar thinks that you want to kiss me.

(laughing)

Ridiculous, right? I know.

I haven't even thought of it once.

- Not once? - No. Have you?

- All the time.

- Like today?! - Yeah.

- Well, are you thinking about it right now?

- You're the one that brought it up.

- Well, stop it! - You're a very beautiful girl.

We've been working very closely together.

It would be weird if I didn't think about it.

You sure? Not once?

- Okay. Maybe once.

- When I was wearing that yellow shirt?

- Oh my gosh. - Brings out the gold flecks in my eyes.

(chuckling)

Don't worry.

As long as you can resist my immense charm,

our relationship will remain strictly professional.

Good for you?

Great. Now let's get back to work.

(sighs)

- Good. You can count on us.

Alright. Hey, hey, hey!

Uh, the gang's going to the park

to play an impromptu game of baseball.

It's a bit off-season, but not for us. Up top.

- I can't. I have a thing.

- What could be more important than baseball?

- Levi. He just got Intergalactic Space Warriors 4.

- Wow. - And we have to master it

before everyone else does, or else we'll never earn enough

stardust rubies to defeat the big boss.

- Wait, wait, wait. Doesn't Levi have

his dance class on Saturday?

- Well, he does, but they cancelled it today

because the teacher came down with Norwalk.

- Wow. Well, he could bring the game over here

and we could all play together like old times.

- I can't! Because it's, you know,

it's just a two-player game. - Oh.

- But maybe next time.

- Okay. - Sorry, Dad.

- What's in the duffle?

- Snacks. It's gonna be a marathon session.

Okay, bye. Love you. - Have fun.

(inquisitive music)

(exhales deeply)

- Justin does have gold flecks in his eyes, just like Amy.

- Really? Never even noticed them before.

- You can only see them in certain light.

- Okay, you know what, girls? You guys are missing the point.

Justin said he thought about kissing me!

- So? - What do I do?

- Kiss him back. - I have a boyfriend.

- Good point. You should break up with Oscar first.

- I am not interested in Justin in that way.

I just want to know if I should tell Oscar

what Justin said. - Oh.

See, now I understand the problem.

Okay, there is only one thing

to do in this situation.

- Tell him! - Don't tell him!

- It's important to be honest with the people you care about.

- Uh, not if the information is gonna hurt them.

- Oh my...

- Hypothetical. I found out that someone said something

terrible about you. Should I tell you?

- Yes. Absolutely!

- But it's gonna make you upset.

- I'd be more upset if I didn't know.

- Uh, but you'd never even find out.

I'd be like it never even happened.

- Okay, you know what, why don't we just call Piper

to break the tie? I don't care if it's like

3 a.m. in Paris.

- Holly, if you tell Oscar,

he'll start feeling uncomfortable around Justin,

which will make you feel uncomfortable.

And if you don't, everything's great.

- As long as you feel comfortable basing your entire

relationship on a lie.

- What are you gonna do?

- Finish setting up for this open mic.

Because if I don't, it'll be a failure,

which is pretty much the only thing I'm sure of right now.

(sighs)

- Oh, Dad. You've gotta try this red onion chutney.

I thought it would be delicious on barbecue chicken.

- Yeah. Yeah, totally. Thanks.

- You okay? (sighs)

- Have you noticed Heather's been acting weird lately?

It's almost like she's hiding something.

- What's your evidence? - Well, this morning,

I got a call to go to the park with the gang

and play some baseball.

She said no.

- And? - That's it.

When have you ever known Heather to say no to baseball?

- Dad, are you sure you're ready for this?

- Oh gosh, you know what's going on?

If it's bad, you have to tell me.

- I hate to be the one to rip the Band-Aid off,

but Heather is a teenager now.

And when young people hit those turbulent years,

they're less interested

in hanging out with their parents.

- Ugh, that's...

No, no, no. Not Heather.

Not my bestie.

No. No, if she doesn't want to hang out,

there is something going on.

(sighs) I'm gonna find out what it is.

(footsteps approaching)

- What are you doing going through my stuff?!

- I was worried! And obviously for good reason!

What is butt glue? - Get out!

Get out of my room! - Okay, okay!

But I'm taking this with me.

(scoffs)

(cheering, applause)

- Thank you guys so much for coming.

That's it for tonight. So, until next time, stay safe.

Excuse me.

Um, hey. Where's Oscar?

- He said he needed some air.

- So, you didn't say anything to upset him?

- Come on ,Hobbie, I would never ever do that to you.

- Okay.

- I just told him that there was nothing going on between us.

- Oh, no.

- I was worried you left.

- Should we invite Justin to save you the trouble

of filling him in? - Ugh.

I was being weird at our songwriting session

and he asked why.

- I don't trust the guy, okay? He's a huge flirt.

- If you came to one of our sessions,

you'd see that there's nothing going on.

Okay? We only talk about music.

Except last time. - Okay.

- Oh, o-okay what?

- From now on, I'll come to your sessions.

- All of them? - Yeah.

If I'm there, Justin won't try anything.

Plus, maybe I could be of use, you know.

I do know a thing or two about music.

(chuckling)

Unless you don't want me there? - No, no, no, no.

Of course I do. - Really?!

- Yes! It'll be great, okay?

You'll be able to see that Justin is just a nice guy

with good intentions and that there's nothing

going on between us. Who knows?

Maybe even the two of you will end up being friends.

(scoffs) Oh, this is going to be great.

- Okay, what is going on between you two?

- Dad was snooping in my room. - What?!

- I knew Heather was hiding something, and I found it.

- What is butt glue?

- Something Heather's been using behind our backs.

- You want to know what the big secret is?

I'm a dancer now! I dance!

And butt glue is for sticking your body suit in place

so it doesn't ride up when you move. Happy?

- What type of dance? - All types.

Ballet, jazz, lyrical, hip-hop.

- How long has this been going on?

- Since the beginning of the school year.

- And you knew about this? - Well, I did, but Heather,

she asked me to keep it secret until she was ready to share.

- Did something bad happen at baseball?

- No. - But dance is so girly.

- What?!

- I think that it is great

that Heather is trying new things.

- Thank you. - And what is wrong with girly?

- Well, nothing, if you're a regular girl.

But Heather is special.

- And by special you mean better?

- I didn't say that. - Um.

- You kinda did. - Yeah.

- Okay, this is exactly why I didn't tell you.

- And look, I'm just surprised, alright?

You like sports and video games. (clears throat)

- And those things are better because they're not girly?

- Yeah, you're on your own, Dad.

- What about eggs, huh? Are eggs girly? Or toast?

And sausage? I mean, these things, they must be girly

because, well, I like them.

- No. - Girls.

Why don't we take our girly breakfast outside?

Mom, you coming? - Oh, yeah.

It's gonna take so much work

for you to get out of this, babe.

(door opening and closing)

- Hobbie, I couldn't get any sleep last night.

I got this idea for a bridge that's gonna blow you away.

- Uh, okay, there's actually something

I have to tell you first.

- You've been thinking about

what we talked about last time?

You do want to kiss me! Okay, but just one.

Come on.

Okay, rip the Band-Aid off. - I brought snacks!

- Oscar thought that it would be super fun to sit in

on one of our songwriting sessions

to see how well we work together.

- He's right. This will be fun. Let's do this.

- Okay, great.

Oh, uh, Justin usually sits here.

- Be my guest.

- Okay, so you said that you wanted to talk about the bridge?

- That can wait. I just got an idea for another song.

Have you ever been in a relationship

where the person holds on so tight you feel crushed?

- No. (chuckling nervously)

♪ Everywhere that I go ♪

♪ I'll see you, I know ♪

♪ I can't breathe when you're here ♪

♪ Why are you so insecure ♪

What do you think, Oscar?

- Sounds a little too pop for me.

- Oh, I like that.

♪ You say I sound a little too pop ♪

♪ Why can't you stop ♪

♪ Putting me down just to keep me around ♪

- Uh... ♪ 'Cause without space ♪

♪ I can't grow ♪

♪ So if you care for me ♪

♪ Just let me be ♪

♪ Like a wildflower ♪

- Yes ,Holly, yes! That was genius.

- It was your verse that was the inspiration.

- This is why we make such a great team.

Oh, what if we made this a duet? We can record it together.

- Oscar, did you hear that? He wants to record with me!

- Yeah, I heard it. Can you take your hand off her?

- I'm sensing a little tension.

- You're trying to steal her from me.

- Oscar! - Steal her?

Is she your possession? - You know what? Um...

Why don't we just try and work on the next verse, okay?

- Not with this guy.

From now on, no Oscars allowed

at our songwriting sessions.

- Like I was going to leave her alone with you.

- Oscar! He was just frustrated

because you were at our session!

- So you guys wouldn't flirt.

Actually, what am I even saying?

Because that didn't stop you at all.

"Oh, Holly, that was such a genius idea!"

"Thanks, Justin, I love yours too!"

- Okay, you know what? You have to admit

the song is good! - He came up with it

to get under my skin.

And why did you tell him about our conversation?

- I already said that I'm sorry.

- I know.

I gotta go.

(sighs)

- There you are.

Have you recovered from

your gender essentialist meltdown?

- I bought her this glove

after we won the county championships.

- I know. I mean, you two,

you have a lot of good memories on that field.

- Why dance?

Why not lacrosse or soccer?

- Sweetie, kids are gonna like what they're gonna like,

and I really, I do not think that this is about dance.

- Well, I'm gonna lose her to all the girly stuff

like I lost Holly. - Okay, first of all,

you didn't lose Holly, and second of all, I mean,

why do people use "girly" as a word

that's synonymous with bad?

- I don't know anything about dance.

- Well, you learn. - Ugh.

- You see this picture?

You two smiling, this is not about baseball.

This is about you two being together

and her knowing that her dad has her back.

Right?

(soft music)

(knocking)

Hi! - Leave me alone.

I'm wallowing. - Well...

So sorry to interrupt,

but what kind of a mother would I be

if I didn't at least try to cheer you up?

- Ooh, are these s'more bars?

- Fresh from the oven. - I want this one.

Mm. So good.

- Feel better? - No.

(laughing)

But maybe if I have another one? - No, no.

Not until you tell me what's wrong.

- Really? You too?

Ugh. I'm so sick of everyone's stupid rules.

(sighs)

Fine.

Oscar feels jealous of Justin which I get,

because Justin can be... flirty.

- Okay. - So Oscar's solution

was to make a rule that he has to sit and watch

all of our songwriting sessions.

But Justin, for some reason,

feels like he can't work when Oscar's around.

And so, Justin decided to also make a rule

that he won't work unless it's just the two of us.

- Got it. - And I don't want to make

Oscar upset but I mean, I also don't want to lose out

on this opportunity with Justin.

(distant horse neighing)

And the worst part is, is that it's...

I mean, it's all my fault

because I decided to tell Justin that Oscar was jealous.

- I mean, if you have to change who you are

to be in a relationship...

It's not a good relationship.

- I need to talk to Oscar, don't I?

- Mm-hmm.

- I guess we need to talk about things.

(sighs)

- Oscar, all I want is a guy who is nice to me, respects me,

and supports my dreams.

- I still don't trust Justin.

- You don't have to.

You have to trust me.

And if you can't do that, then...

I'm not sure that we should go out anymore.

(birds chirping)

- I still don't like him.

- I know. (chuckling)

- But I trust you.

And I'm sorry if I made it seem like I didn't.

- Okay. (phone vibrating)

- Justin?

- Yeah, um...

I'm gonna go ahead and take this.

I've had some song ideas that I've actually

been wanting to talk to him about.

- Of course.

- Okay.

- Hey.

Yeah, no, I actually think that I had a breakthrough

with the pre-chorus.

(soft music)

- Hey! I wanna show you something.

- I have a lot of homework. - It'll only take a minute.

Come on.

So, there's nothing wrong with dance or girly stuff.

I was just worried I wouldn't have a place in your life.

And so, I got you something.

- A dance bar?

- I'd like to be involved.

That is if you...

want me to be.

- If you insist.

- Great.

First off, you gotta teach me a couple dance moves.

- This is what we did in class today, okay?

- Oh my goodness. - Okay? Yeah? Slower.

Five, six, seven, eight.

- Whew. - Three, four...

five, six... - Hmm? Oh.

- What did Oscar think of that?

- It's not just about him.

When you flirt with me, it makes me uncomfortable.

- I don't mean any harm. - I know.

But in this space,

where we work.

It has to be a no flirt zone.

And if you can't agree to that, then...

I'm not sure that we can work together anymore.

(scoffs)

- Okay. Is there a contract you want me to sign?

- Your word is good enough, I trust you.
