Original subtitles

Okay, please tell me it's April Fool's. You have science. Why can't I have

Christianity? Because adopting a new religion is a very big deal. Well, I was

searching for something, and this could be it.

So, becoming Christian has nothing to do with St. Luke?

Well, I'm sure he won't mind.

Jenna, I'm so excited you want to get baptized.

Oh, who said anything about getting baptized?

You told me you want to become Christian.

Baptism's the first step.

I talked to my dad, and if you want...

He could do that tomorrow's evening service.

Tomorrow?

Like, the day after today?

Uh, if you need more time to think it over.

I don't.

Great. I brought you my pocket Bible so you can study up. There's a test?

No, silly.

I just figured you'd like to know what you're getting yourself into. Right.

Because it'd be crazy to jump into something without knowing what you're

into, right, Becky?

Right.

Thank you.

All right, guys, let's take five.

Claire, did my heart love until now?

You don't like Shakespeare?

The whole school is tweeting what I say. I was obsessing over it at work, and

Asher caught me, and now he thinks I'm some stupid high school girl.

I don't even say any of these things.

One day you'll be serving me coffee.

Okay, I said that one, but it lacks context.

Are you really going to come to my sanctum and disturb me with that?

I was mad. Someone sat at my study table and started humming the Big Bang Theory

theme song. Claire, just ignore that enough.

What if it blows up? What if I become a huge joke and it ruins my rep with

Asher? Or it could just blow over.

You're right.

I will be Zen.

Don't tweet that.

That's great news.

So anytime today?

All right, I'll get back to you.

I have a job interview.

I have a job interview.

Well, you could barely handle a health assignment.

Good luck finding a roommate.

I don't want to live with that witch.

What? I thought Audra said you couldn't get a job.

I'm done letting her run my life. I want to feel good again.

And you think hawking cell phones is the answer?

Mr. Torres, I can't bad after class.

I know school isn't... Drew, come on. You

can't skip again. You're going to get in trouble.

I'm already in trouble.

I've been doing some research on Shakespeare's identity and some people

was actually a he.

Oh, no, am I boring you?

Oh, I was just looking for your brother.

Yeah, um, he texted me to say he was late, some hockey thing.

Cool.

Hey, did you mention my baptism film yet?

Not yet, why?

Just curious, what do you thought?

Jenna... I hate to ask you this, but are you sure you're becoming Christian for

the right reason?

I know I can be pushy sometimes, but it doesn't mean... Relax, Becky.

I'm not getting baptized for you.

For you?

Because I'd be your friend no matter what.

Hey, ladies. What am I... Just a minor Becky freakout.

I thought Jenna was getting baptized for me.

Hold up, you...

You're getting baptized?

So what do you think?

Well, I think it's divine.

How's that transcript coming, Newsy? Great. Five minutes, maybe.

Do you really love working for me? What? No, I mean, well...

Yes, but I didn't... Stuff Claire says is trending in Toronto right now.

That can't be easy.

Oh, God.

No. You know what?

Journalists face scrutiny all the time.

I can handle it.

I don't think the deputy mayor asked, did I flick a switch and erase you from

memory? I'm so sorry. I'll fix it right now. No.

You'll go home.

Come back when you're ready to work.

Hey.

Okay, I'm ready. Ask me anything.

Can you put this shirt on?

Um, okay.

Is this part of the interview? No, I do look good in a uniform.

Here at Coach Light, we don't do formal interviews.

We do test shifts.

Fuck a test.

Don't worry, you'll ace this one. Now, show me your salesperson savvy.

You know what? We'll work on your display skills.

Oh, no way.

This phone does, like, everything. My mom promised me one if I got my grades

Well, if we hire you, you can buy one. No mommy required.

It's like 500 bucks.

With salary and commission, you'll be making mad coin.

Like, a full -time first -year salesperson can make...

Up to 15 in commission.

1 ,500?

1 ,000.

On top of salary.

But you probably need a high school diploma, right? No, just mad people

Okay,

here we go. Show me your stuff here, old boy.

Hello, welcome to Coast Light. What can I do for you?

You don't need to set a place for me. I'm going out. Don't forget your curfew.

I'll be home in time, just meeting some friends. For a party?

It's more of a gathering.

She's not going to a party, Mom. She's getting baptized.

Allie, baptized?

It's just a small ceremony.

No big deal. It's a very big deal.

What inspired this sudden devotion?

Yes, Jenna, tell us what or who inspired you.

Well, lately I've felt like everyone knows where they're going except me.

And then I met this guy.

A boy.

He told me that God has a plan for everyone.

And if that's true, I want to know what his plan is for me.

That sounds really stupid when I say it out loud. I think it sounds beautiful.

Really?

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta 'ala has helped me through many difficult days.

I hope your commitment can help you, too.

I'm proud of you, Jenna.

Because I'm lost?

Because you're trying to get found.

Those who walk with the Lord never walk alone.

Jenna Marie Middleton, do you confess that you have turned from sin and placed

your faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord?

I... I do.

Then please step forward to be baptized.

I baptize you in the name of the Father, and the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Do I look

different? Because I feel different.

You look heavenly.

I'm serious, Allie. Honestly, you look like you just got back from a tropical

vacay. I feel refreshed, like all the baggage I've been carrying has been

away. Well, I wonder what St. Luke thinks.

Can't wait to find out.

Hey, missed you last night.

Yeah, sorry I couldn't make your baptism.

I had hockey practice.

Don't sweat it, Becky. You had my back.

You two are becoming close.

We are, but she's not the only baker I want to get close to.

I told you I didn't want a relationship.

Because I wasn't Christian. No.

It's because I don't want to be tied down.

Oh, so the I'm Christian, you're not thing was just a line.

I was trying to let you down easy.

You told me God has a plan for me.

How could it be so stupid?

Jenna, I didn't...

I got baptized for you.

No, I never asked you to do that. Just stop talking. That means scram, Bible

boy.

Ladies and gentlemen, before we start, players ask that everyone please put

their cell phones.

Mr. Townsend, fellow student, let's talk about the people of India.

People not bound by common language or religion. People who have overcome great

oppression.

Meet Amon Preet. Now, he is only 11.

Edward, what are you doing?

Illuminating the political struggle of the Indian underclass.

What happened to illustrating how and why a country joined the Commonwealth?

Yeah, well, we wanted to do that, but then Claire told us we couldn't. I was

trying to do something special.

But you and Adam were just too busy tweeting to help out. Only because you

too full of yourself to actually listen to us. Excuse me for having lost your

ambitions in some pedestrian high school assignment.

Pedestrian? Stuff Claire says.

At least you didn't blame me on my Asperger's.

I apologize for that. No, you didn't.

We can continue with Adam.

Miss Edwards, Mr. Torres, please take your seats.

We'll move on to the next presentation.

We could put itching powder in Luke's jockstrap.

We could cap his knee. I know a guy.

Actually, I don't, but I could find one. He can't play hockey if he's got a

busted up knee. Allie, stop.

Luke isn't my problem.

He's not.

No, I am.

Keep letting guys mess up my life.

Uh, hello.

Pregnancy scare, spoiler room, STIs.

I've done pretty stupid stuff for boys, too.

Ever get baptized for one?

Uh, no.

I got baptized.

Pretended to be Becky's friend.

All because Luke made me feel special for five minutes.

So you lied about everything?

I didn't lie.

Just left out a few details.

Do you know how many friends I've lost because my brother's a player?

Well, you don't have to lose me. We still have singing, Christianity.

You are not a Christian.

I was baptized.

You were there.

Being Christian isn't about one night.

It's about trying to follow Jesus' example, trying to be a good person

day.

And you, Jenna Middleton, are not a good person.

Drew?

Is that... Hey, what are you doing home?

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine, Mom.

Oh.

Well, then tell me you've been struck down with the avian flu, because that's

the only reason you should be skipping school.

Because I'm done with school.

Uh, you're what?

I got the job at the mall.

I start today.

Drew,

I thought we decided... No, you decided.

You start as junior salesperson.

If I do well, I can make manager in a year or two. You're not dropping out of

school for some job at the mall.

Think about your future. My future? Yes. I'm failing all of my classes.

At this rate, I won't graduate until I'm 50.

You exaggerate. I feel like crap every day.

It'll get better. You keep saying that, but it doesn't.

I'm 17. This is my decision.

I've got to go, or I'll be late for my first shift.

If you live in this house, you go to school.

Case closed.

You have to be freaking

kidding me. Did you flick a switch and erase me from your memory?

Did you ever love me at all?

If only it were that simple.

Well, excuse me for having lost your ambitions than just some pedestrian high

school assignment.

Do I really sound that ridiculous all the time?

No, not all the time.

I spoke to Townsend after class. He's going to give us another chance to

our project.

I'm really, really sorry.

Especially about the Asperger's comment.

You just need to think before you speak, Claire.

Will you forgive me if I take myself less seriously?

Yeah, but then we'll have nothing to tweet about. Thank goodness.

Can we watch the video again?

Well, excuse me for having loftier ambitions than just some pedestrian high

school assignment.

What are you doing here? What are you doing here?

I love working for Asher.

Are you there, God?

It's me, Jenna.

Can you please give Luke some disfiguring disease?

I don't care about that jerk.

Then why are you praying?

Ever since I gave up Ty, I felt lost and confused.

And you thought Luke would show you the way?

I need someone, too.

I'm sick of feeling this way.

Well, you have me.

Until the end of the year.

I need someone or something more permanent than that.

Like God.

Maybe.

When I got baptized, it was mostly for Luke.

The truth is, I wanted it to be true.

I'm sensing a but.

Luke lied about a lot of things.

What if he lied about God, too?

Well, I think that's where you gotta have faith.

Look, I know I've let you down, but I think we can make this work.

I have conditions.

Of course.

You pay half of everything.

No problem.

And you tell that girlfriend of yours no kissy -kissy when I'm at home. Okay.

Anything else?

Breakfast in bed every morning?

Easy there, Princess Fiona.

Welcome to Pat the Coin.

Take yourself at home.

Not that at home.

Shoes off the couch.

Excuse me.

Can

I

help you, Jenna?

Oh, Mr.

Baker.

Yeah?

Who were you expecting?

I could go. You're probably busy with, like, God's work and stuff. No, no, no,

no. Set, please.

And he probably has more important stuff to deal with than some messed up high

schooler.

Jenna, do you collect things?

Yeah.

Guitar picks from concerts.

You ever lost one?

Tim McGraw's.

I spent days looking for it. Okay, now didn't that pick become the most

important one in your collection?

Yeah. Yeah, well, that's how God feels when one of his own gets lost.

I must be very important to him.

This plan God has for me, any chance I could get an advance copy?

Afraid not.

Right. But, in my experience, he usually sends us a sign to let us know we're on

the right track.

Oh, better prepare for service.

I hope you'll stay.

I'm pretty sure we don't have a co -op ship booked for today.

I was hoping to make up for the one I missed.

You mean the one I sent you home from?

Yeah. It was pretty hard on you.

But I deserved it. You said people would judge you on everything you put out,

and you were right.

But despite my actions, I want you to know that I am dedicated to this

internship. I love working here.

I know. I read your Twitter feed.

Don't worry, Newsy.

I love working with you, too.

And so Jesus reminds us that those who seek forgiveness and those who give it

are blessed.

Are there any members of the congregation who have anything they'd

before we finish?

I do.

Hi.

I'm Jenna.

I'm new here.

Um, I joined because of a guy.

Crazy, I know.

But he promised God had a plan for me.

And I thought he was the key to that plan.

Turns out the guy played me.

Starting my life.

But I'm over it because now I know it wasn't the guy I wanted.

It was God.

And it took a special person for me to realize that.

A person I totally betrayed.

I'm sorry, Becky.

I wish I hadn't screwed it all up.

Oh, my God.

I just got screwed in church.

And, oh, my God.

I hope it's true. Christians are a forgiving bunch.

Thank you, Jenna.

Anyone else?

Well, then go in peace.

To love and serve the Lord.

Becky, I never... It's okay, Jen. I forgive you.

How could I not?

Just promise me one thing.

Anything.

Stay away from my brother.

Amen.
