All language subtitles for The Encounter s02e03 Answer 2.eng

(dramatic music)

For most of us many of the same

fundamental questions apply.

Who am I, where am I going,
how can I receive the love

that I need?

(upbeat music)

What perhaps nobody else to these questions

seem more primal, more intense

than for the American teenager.

(upbeat music)

(bell rings)

High School junior, Mandy
Abernathi is about to encounter

the truth that the best
possible answers to her questions

may also be the hardest to accept.

(speaks in foreign language)

(upbeat music)

That's it!
Chill Krissy.

You want me to chill? (sighs)

Why don't you chill, Cole.

(laughs)

Oh!
Oh my God!

(laughs)

I'm done, we are done.

Permission to go to the bathroom.

Granted.

So let's return to our narrative

what did the girl in the Spanish class want?

Mandy Abernathi what do you say?

What did the girl in the story want most of all?

You won't find the answers
you're looking for there Mandy.

(dramatic music)

I know I'm just a substitute teacher

but we are supposed to be
learning Spanish in this room

(speaks in foreign language)?

(speaks in foreign language)

You can retrieve this after second period,

I'll still be here.

(bell rings)

Class dismissed.

(speaks in foreign language)

Have a great homecoming weekend.

Here he comes, go for it

but don't make a scene like you were.

Lord, please help me.

Oh, geeze, sorry.

No, it was my fault.

(speaks in foreign language)

Cole (speaks in foreign language).

What, oh yeah, I'm just
a little embarrassed I guess.

Yeah, that was mental.

She was way over the line.

If you need anyone to talk to I-

I just need a little space right now, okay

Oh, of course, sure, sorry.

That was an epic disaster.

Too soon?
Way too soon.

(sighs) If it wasn't hopeless before it is now.

Don't say that dudette,
I saw the way he was smiling

at you in class.

Then before I turned myself into desperate girl

right before his face.

I've totally blown it.

Ow!
What is this quitter talk

I'm hearing?

Are you the captain of the girl's soccer team

or what?

This is so different.

No, it's only different in your mind.

Are you doing the Yoda thing again?

True it is.

It doesn't work on me.

This is impossible.

So, this impossible, huh?

Pretty much.

Snagging the cutest boy in school is not possible

for Mandy Apernathi?

Yeah, (speaks in foreign language).

Oh, well, it's a good thing you believe

in miracles, don't you?

Yes, yes, I do.

I have an idea, oh, I need my phone, though.

I'll text you when I get it back.

I'm gonna need you during the lunch break.

Are you in?

Who just gave you the pep talk?

Yeah, girl, I'm in.

You're the best.

(knocks)

(speaks in foreign language)

Hi, Mandy, come on in.

Please leave the door
open, abuse prevention laws.

Sadly the state of the world you live in today.

You have a big request, Mandy.

And I've got your answer.

It's not that big, just
want my phone back, please.

Certainly but I was thinking of another question

you had about a certain upper classman.

I don't know what Krissy told you

but I swear I didn't do
anything to make her blow up

and act all drama queen like that.

Don't worry nobody told me anything.

Then I'm not sure what you think you know.

Well, for one thing I
know how you met Cole Becks.

He was here in Spanish III.

This class is mostly for juniors

but Cole had to repeat it.

Your usual teacher, Mrs. Vargus,

she was introducing a new learning exercise.

Today ladies and gentlemen,
(speaks in foreign language)

we're gonna play a game.

(speaks in foreign language).

It's called Pyramid.

Maybe you've seen it on TV.

(speaks in foreign language)

Cole (speaks in foreign language).

My boy!

(speaks in foreign language) Mandy

(speaks in foreign language).

Okay, you know the rules,
no hand gestures, please

and no English (speaks in foreign language).

(speaks in foreign language)

(speaks in foreign language)

(speaks in foreign language).

No, no (speaks in foreign language).

(speaks in foreign language)

(speaks in foreign language)

(clapping)

In that moment you sensed a vulnerability

behind Cole's confident
exterior that melted your heart.

Ever since that day you and friend Roxanne

have been privately referring to Cole as Uno,

as in (speaks in foreign language) number one,

cutest boy around.

And since this morning's
incident you two have been

scheming up a way to manipulate
Cole into inviting you

to tomorrow's dance.

Those are just the highlights.

How do you like, know that stuff, who are you?

Who do you say I am?

I don't know the only people in the universe

that know that stuff are me, Rox

and (speaks in foreign language)

The way of life.

Your Spanish is really coming along well, Mandy

or commonly I'm called
(speaks in foreign language)

or sometimes (speaks in foreign language).

No, no way.

Way.

Okay, then when was I baptized?

On your 13th birthday.

How many goals did I score last year?

Who's my favorite member of Mumford and Sons?

You don't have one.

Get out.

But you invited me here.

I'm sorry, Lord, I, I did, how?

This is so crazy.

You've been making the same request to me

every single day for the last several weeks.

Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to bug you.

No, no, you're not bugging me, daughter.

In fact I've come to answer your question.

You have?

No.

I'm sorry, it kinda sounded like you said no.

That's correct, I won't help make Cole Bicks

your boyfriend, my answer's no.

Oh, well could you make him like me,

I can pick it up from there, okay?

Cole has plenty of reasons to like you already.

Then can you help him realize that,

just send his attention my way?

Make him forget that desperate girl move today.

No.

That's it, just no.

You don't even seem all that sorry about it.

Mandy I don't do things that I'm sorry about

not in the way that you mean it.

Well then you can't be the real

(speaks in foreign language) dude.

What makes you say that?

I go to Bible study, I pray all the time

and I even used to where one of those

what would Jesus do bracelets.

So, I know a little something about this

(speaks in foreign language),
the real Jesus helps people.

Mandy, we aren't done here.

I am, I have to get to Algebra

which you would know if you were the real Jesus.

Can I please have my phone back, you promised.

The real Jesus always keeps his promises.

Yeah, man, it's whatever.

I mean, really she's not even worth it man.

Bro-

Hey Mandy (speaks in foreign language).

(speaks in foreign language)

Cool, I just wanna say I was kinda rude earlier

so I-

I was invading your space

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

You're so shameless Cole Bicks.

What?

You said you didn't even know her you cheater.

I don't, I just-
I just ran-

Krissy, why do you even care?

You're the one who said we're over.

Couldn't even wait a day?

I just ran into her like-

Yeah, I just-

I'll see you later, Cole.

Hey Rox.
Hey drama much?

Did you see her acting all totalitarian?

I know after she dumped in public like that,

news alert Krissy it's a free country

and Cole is a free man.

Even that substitute wants
me to stay away from Cole.

What's with that?

The sub, Mr. Carmino, he
told you to stay away from Cole.

Well, not in so many words but that was the gist.

The guy's nuts, you wouldn't
believe me if I told you

what he said to me.

What about that idea you had?

Right, I'm gonna need
you by the gym during lunch.

Are you still in?
Always.

Thank you.
Okay.

(bell rings)

I will text you the dets.

Okay, got it.
Okay.

(dramatic music)

The hawk is in the nest.

(speaks in foreign language)

Don't say anything, I read in Cosmo

that whatever you do you have to let him

make the first move.

Hey, Mandy.
Oh, hey Cole.

Hey I was just sneaking home for lunch,

you won't tell anybody?

Everyone needs some time to get away.

Yeah, for me it's like everyday. (laughs)

Maybe you're more of like an introvert

than people realize.

Probably.

You have a ball, what position do you play?

Halfback, what about you?

Power forward.

I knew that, (laughs) I was kidding.

You're the top scorer for
power forward on the west coast

for high school.

No kidding pass me that ball.

No handsies.
Yeah, yeah.

So you've got some skills.

Yeah, I used to play AYSO
soccer as a kid, loved it.

Probably more than B-ball.

Actually a lot more than B-ball.

So then why aren't you on the soccer team?

My dad, he told me the scholarships

are better for basketball.

With my height, the potential on the court

is higher than on the field.

Well what would make you happier?

I don't know, you know
I don't really think anybody's

ever asked me that before.

Well, I'm not just anybody, I hope.

I don't know the kids I hang out with,

the guys on the team, the cheerleaders,

everybody thinks they know me.

They all want me to act a certain way,

be the basketball hero but-

They don't realize your hidden depths in stuff.

Yeah, hidden anyway.

You know you're really cool to talk to.

Thanks, you too.

Maybe, I don't know, who's
taking you to homecoming?

Nobody.
Nobody.

I was asked but I don't know.

I got tired of going with
my second or third pick, you know?

I've always gone to the dances with the boy

my parents thought I should, you know?

Yeah.

Why do you ask?

Mandy, Mandy, bogie's incoming, close the deal.

Mandy, Mandy?

Well, I was just thinking that-

Hey Cole, bro, hey get in,

we're gonna go to the liquor store to get a keg

for the after party tomorrow!

A keg?

Yeah, it's just, it's a guy thing.

Maybe later bro.
Dude, come on

we need your ID.
Okay, okay,

give me a second.

Hey, you wanna meet after school here?

Maybe I could get those digits.

My?
Your phone number

after school.
Okay.

Hey, you're the best, thanks.

(engine revs)

All right, what's your deal?

Could you be more specific?

Are you sabotaging me and Cole?

Cole Bicks joining his friends

to purchase a keg of beer
that they're not old enough

to drink, do you think that's apart of my plan?

Well, why didn't you do something about it?

It's not fair.

I think we've been through this already.

Besides, you've decided
that I'm not the real Jesus,

so how can I do anything?

Well, maybe I was wrong, maybe it is you.

And close the door, people will hear me.

As I explained the door has to stay open,

if you don't want people to hear you I suggest

you lower your voice.

Okay.

Mandy, you must know that I am the good shepherd,

that I know my flock.

Cole Bicks is not one of my flocks, sadly

and Mandy you are.

Why would you wanna date a boy who's off

following his own path?

Because I think he's like
really close to believing.

Don't you?

Well, I could like, minister to him

and help him accept you.

He's a really nice boy deep down.

Mandy I did not come to call on nice people.

Does a healthy man need a doctor,

you know the answer to that question.

I came to call sinners to turn and be healed.

But I could totally help with that.

I'm sure I can Emmanuelize him,

I've got the sinner's prayer memorized.

Do you know the depths
of Cole's sins and struggles?

No, but I know I can bring him to the light,

I'm sure of it.

Mandy, why do you believe
you need Cole Becks so badly?

What is it that's missing in your heart?

Well, you know 'cause
I'm good at sports and stuff

everyone's always treated me like I'm a boy.

But with Cole it's so different.

I just wanna be a girl with a boy who loves her,

a boy that she actually wants.

Is that too much to ask.

No, it's not.

Then why won't you answer my prayer.

I have answered your prayer.

(sighs) I know, I know, the youth pastor

always tells me God always answers,

sometimes yes, sometimes no, sometimes wait.

I like that young man.

But why do I always get answer number two

and girls like Krissy Corilian

always gets answer number one?

Mandy, if you only knew
you wouldn't switch places

with Krissy for the whole world.

If you say so.

Mandy, you've studied my book,

you remember the words of Isaiah,

for my thoughts are not your thoughts,

neither are your ways my ways declares the Lord.

As the heavens are higher than the earth

so are my ways higher than your ways

and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Mandy, if you know that truth,

why don't you shape your request to fit it?

What do you mean, like how?

Well, something like, Lord,

would you want me to date Cole Bicks?

Is he the best you have for me?

But how could he not be?

When I'm with Cole it feels so right.

Mandy who do you call Lord me or your feelings?

So, I should stop praying then?

No, no, I would never tell anyone to do that.

But you also told people
to ask and they would receive.

Yeah.

Mandy, if you ask your parents for a scorpion

would they give it to you?

Of course not, I wouldn't
be dumb enough to ask for one.

What if you didn't realize it was a scorpion,

should they still give it to you?

Mandy, my no is kinder than any yes

that the world can offer you.

Whether you accept it or not, that's your choice

but so are the consequences.

Mandy continue to pray
but seek first to do my will

and keep your eyes on the ball.

Dear Lord, this is the last time I'm gonna ask,

if it's your will, please let Cole ask me out.

Hey.
Hey.

Thanks for showing up, can I get those digits?

You don't know your own phone number.

626-555-4343, I never call myself.

(laughs) Right.

Cool, I'll call you ASAP, see you.

No, wait, Cole.

I don't think so.

Sorry, what?

Homecoming's tomorrow night,

a girl shouldn't be left hanging,

if you wanna ask me out now's the time.

All right, Mrs. Mandy would you care to join me

for a homecoming dance tomorrow evening?

I would be delighted. (laughs)

Cool, see you at six.
Text me and I'll send you

my address.
I'll see you around.

Not if I see you first.

Yes, thank you Jesus, I
knew you wouldn't let me down.

(upbeat music)

Give it up for your homecoming
queen, Mandy Abernathi!

(applause and cheers)

You go girl!

Mandy, Mandy, Mandy!

(upbeat music)

Hello?
What?

By the way, I think you forgot the corsage.

What are you talking about?

A flower.

Hey, I brought you here, all right.

Are you okay?

Do I look okay.

You look great but you're acting really weird.

Have you been drinking?

Ha, what makes you say that?

Well, your driving for one.

You've never ridden with me before.

And you smell like a bottle of cologne.

Are you gonna be like this all night?

What are you talking about,

why are you acting like this this is not-

What's up.
What's up.

You know I'm just checking out the scene.

My boy.

Hello, hottness 12 o'clock.

Krissy's here.
Yeah, yeah?

She's looking for you.

Tell her to get in line. (laughs)

(clears throat)

Are you okay?
No I'm not okay.

Then go get something to drink.

Which reminds me.

Oh, I gotta go make a pit stop.

Hey homecoming queen.

Is everything all right?

They should have taken each other to homecoming.

For real?

This is turning out to be a nightmare.

You guys just got here.

You're lucky you weren't here on the drive over.

I thought we were gonna die twice.

Lousy driver, huh?

Earth to Roxanna, he's been drinking.

Are you sure?

(laughs)

Pretty sure.

Listen, girlfriend, you need to relax

this is your night.

This isn't how I wanted it to be.

You're at homecoming with the most popular boy

in school Mandy, how can
it get any better than this?

He's not paying any attention to me.

Well, are you paying any attention to him,

don't blow all of our hard work.

What am I supposed to do?

Leave, now before things get worse.

Hey where's the flask at?

Dude, I don't know man,
you're the one who brought it

so it's your problem.
You're the one

who drunk all of it.

Wait you set this whole thing you,

remember you changed your mind.

No, I never change my mind.

You said yes.

My answer has always been no.

Then how did all of this happen?

You disobeyed me and made it happen.

Well, if you were the real God

then why didn't you save me?

I am saving you from it do you see that?

In a few moments things are gonna get worse,

the police will be called,
students will be suspended,

do you wanna be apart of that, Mandy?

Hey, look at Mandy Abernathi all blinged out.

Excuse me.

Cole has seriously lowered
his standards, don't you think?

Wait a second, you broke up with him.

And after he gets what he wants from you,

who do you think he's gonna come running back to?

Hey, enough.

Krissy, go, now, now.

That's not my problem.

It is when coach is gonna find it.

Dude, don't touch me.

Do it one more time see what's gonna happen.

Don't touch me man.

This isn't funny Cole.

Stop touching me, all right.

Oh stop touching me.
Chill out.

What are you gonna do, touch Mandy, Mandy.

Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight,

fight, fight, fight, fight,
fight, fight, fight, fight,

fight, fight, fight, fight, fight!

This is your last chance.

How do I get home?

Call your parents.

My parents?

Come on guys, come on
guys, break it up, break it up.

Yeah, you think you're so big now.

Come on buddy, come on buddy!

Yeah, you're gonna die!

I really messed up didn't I?

Those that have ears should listen.

Go.

(cheering and yelling)

(bell rings)

This is so unfair, I had
nothing to do with that fight

and now I have to stay after school for two hours

everyday until the end of the semester.

Sorry Rox.

How did you manage to escape?

It's a long story.

Well, aren't you the lucky one.

Believe me luck's got nothing to do with it.

Well, enjoy your freedom.

See you at practice?

Sure as soon as they unchain me.

I hope so, the team's not the same without you.

I hope you know that.

Here comes Uno.

Hey.
Hi.

I just wanna say how sorry I am about the dance.

The way I acted was very uncool.

Apology accepted.

Thanks and Krissy and I are over for real,

her parents grounded her on top of detention.

I'm sorry to hear that.

So, I was thinking maybe
I could make it up to you,

this Saturday you and me and maybe a movie?

Would you answer a question first?

Sure.

This might sound weird
how do you feel about Christ?

(laughs) What like Jesus Christ?

Right.

Honestly, he's not really on my radar.

I mean, like I know who he is and all

but religious stuff that's not really for me.

I mean, I'm cool with
it if that's what you're into.

Well, if that changes at all let me know

but until then this might not make sense to you

and it might sound a little mean

but it's really the most
kind answer I can give you, no.

Thank you for asking though.

(upbeat music)

We all have our questions.

Today Mandy Abernathi has encountered the truth

that the hardest answer to accept

can also be the best one.

(upbeat music)

(dramatic music)

? Something happened on the way ?

? When I was going to the place to make amends ?

? I couldn't make it out
between the black and white ?

? and gray even though I needed a friend ?

? Tick tock feet like flour on the floor ?

? A deafening silence that we can't ignore ?

? Tight tight grip as we saw today ?

? I tickle your ears 'cause I am afraid ?

? The stars tipped over the sky came closer ?

? Your words like fire sharp like lightning ?

? Chemicals captured in flight ?

? Dissolved in the night ?

? When the stars tipped over ?
