Original subtitles

(male narrator) Previously on "One Tree Hill.."

Maybe this means you're coming back soon?

No.

I'm not coming home, Lucas.

This is my life now.

Say goodbye to daddy, Bunny.

Forever.

- I have to go. - What, no. Don't.

Nicki found Jenny.

(Deb) I need to be stronger

for you and for myself.

So, while you're healing

from this, I'll be healing, too.

Whitey thinks he can get me back into High Flyers.

Look, I don't like to burden you with these things

but your mother's pill addiction started

when you moved out.

You don't lock your door at night.

No one can hurt me.

Nah, that's where you're mistaken.

- I have your ledger. - You're bluffing.

(Brooke) It's okay that you're into Peyton.

I've been avoiding it the whole trip

but I found the things in your closet

and it's fine.

You're leaving now?

It think it's best.

Hey.

- Need some help? - Nah.

I figure if I leave all my stuff here my parents

are gonna have to let me come back for senior year.

Look, are we ever gonna talk about Peyton

and the stuff you found?

It's not a big deal.

'Actually, I was'

kind of relieved.

Relieved?

I thought you might be into me.

And..

...that would've ruined everything

because we've become friends

and that's exactly what I needed

and it's exactly what I want.

'Yeah, but you seemed upset'

that I held onto all that stuff.

You still do.

Finding that stuff was kind of like..

...evidence.

'It reminded me of what happened'

and how it happened.

And I guess my heart just wasn't ready for that.

Uh, yeah, yeah, he..

I was hoping he'd bring Nathan.

[chuckles] Well, I lied.

I had one of the girls at the office

push him back an hour.

I thought you and I might

have a talk.

Any chance you could tap that thing?

Uh, sorry, we're closed.

Well, I hope so, because if this is open

you got problems.

Where you taking this?

I got it.

Uh, thanks.

No problem.

If I had a dollar for every

keg I've carried

I'd be a rich girl.

Uh, bartender?

Only when I'm not killing people

or saving the world.

Well, if you're looking for a job

I can put in a good word with the owner.

Actually, I'm looking for Peyton.

Oh, um.

I'm Peyton.

Oh.

I'm Ellie.

I write a column for Alternative Press.

- You know it? - Huh, know it?

I read it cover to cover.

Which column?

Actually, It's-it's a new one

but I heard some high-school girl got The Wreckers

and Jimmy Eat World to play her club night.

And I wanted to know more. What do you say?

I'd say, I'm really flattered but..

I think last night was my final show.

I assume there's a reason for that.

Yeah.

Sounds like the makings of a great story.

No, thanks.

But it was really nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you, too, Peyton.

[instrumental music]

"Luke, find the combination, and Dan is finished."

[dramatic music]

[sighs]

Hey.

What's up?

Nothing. You?

I thought you said you were done spying on him.

I am.

What's in the bag?

[scoffs]

Just bringing this back to you.

You gave me your word, Luke.

I know, and I'm done.

I promise.

[instrumental music]

[instrumental music]

(Deb) 'Giving up on your dreams?'

Mom.

My boy.

Oh, I have missed you.

It's gonna be okay now, mom.

Yeah.

So what's all this about?

Nathan's moving home, Deb.

[instrumental music]

We're gonna be a family again.

Welcome home.

Sadly no. Why?

Doesn't matter. What's up?

That's actually what I came to ask you.

Couldn't find you at the club last night.

Figured maybe you stayed in with Jake.

Jake's gone, Brooke.

Nicki has Jenny.

Oh! Peyton, come here.

- What happened? - Mm-mm.

I can't, 'cause if you hug me

then I'm gonna start

bawling again, so..

Some summer break, huh?

Well, I mean, he's coming back, right?

He'll find Jenny, and then he can slap Nicki

and then he's coming right back to you.

I just know it.

Thanks.

Okay. I'm sorry.

I'm changing the subject.

How was your road trip with Lucas?

Um..

...fine.

Fine?

Is this gonna get sexual?

I don't know, that's kind of up to you.

What?

It can wait, your head is spinning.

Brooke, considering you're leaving tomorrow.

It can't wait.

Spill.

Okay.

Um.

I was snooping through Lucas' things kind of on purpose

and found a bunch of your stuff that he saved

and I think he's still into you.

Huh.

Like I said, bad timing

seeing that Jake just left

or maybe good timing?

Brooke.

I'm sorry.

I know you have feelings for Lucas.

Phantom feelings.

Like when you lose a leg and try to scratch it.

Lucas was my..

...gangrene-infected amputated limb.

Really?

I was so insecure when I was with him, Peyton

and this whole thing just reminded me

that I don't wanna be that girl again.

I won't be.

Well, I guess I don't understand.

He was supposed to be there by now.

Well, can you leave him another

message in case he checks in?

Andy Hargrove.

Thanks.

[indistinct singing]

[dramatic music]

[door opens]

Karen?

Oh, my gosh. Deb.

- Welcome back. - Oh!

You look like you just saw a ghost.

Well, I think I did.

How you feeling?

Uh, good, great, actually.

I just, I need to keep busy.

Are you sure, I mean

You don't want to take some time?

Uh, no, no. Absolutely not.

Well, okay.

- Let's talk. - Okay.

[door opens]

You're not going away, are you?

Not this time.

That's a rad jacket.

Thanks.

I stole it from Courtney Love.

- Really? - Yeah.

She was being a bitch, so I took it.

Have a seat.

So the editors at Thud are thrilled about your story

and they say I have to talk to you.

Is it that bad?

Well, if there's no house of freaks at Tric

there's no story.

And what about the rest of your life?

Is it that bad?

What do you know about it?

Well, your eyes are puffy which

from experience, screams textbook crying eyes.

'You have your hair up so you probably not'

'planning on impressing any boys today.'

I'd say you're nursing a hell of a broken heart

and not the school girl-crush kind, the real thing.

'Um.'

Okay, uh.

Well, I mean, I started Tric

just to escape it all, you know

and to bring people together

let the music drown out the white noise in life.

Tell me about your life.

What is the white noise made of?

Oh, God, I mean, everything unnecessary

like cliques and greed

and popularity and harassment.

The song remains the same.

(Peyton) Yeah, as far as I can tell, it does.

'It looks like we're both getting better.'

You love this game, don't you?

Depends on what day you ask me.

Nah, you've loved it every day since you could hold a ball.

So why aren't you going to the camp?

You talked to dad?

I talked to Whitey.

He said you're staying because of me.

Whitey also drinks a lot, mom.

[chuckles] Then you'll go.

Look, uh.

Dad told me about the pills

about how you started taking them because--

Because what?

Because I moved out.

Is that what he told you?

I took the pills because you moved away?

Yeah.

That son of a bitch.

Nathan, listen to me.

You misunderstood me when I said that

I wanted us to be a family again.

I want us to be a family again

you and me.

Will you come with me?

Yeah.

But what are we gonna do about dad, huh?

He won't just let us go.

We're getting out, Nathan, together.

Your father can burn in hell for all I care.

[dramatic music]

Where's the combination?

[music continues]

[sighs]

[beeping]

Damn it.

[music continues]

[beeping]

[sighs]

Game over.

[knock on door]

[instrumental music]

Brooke?

Um, I found it while I was packing.

Just kind of felt like I should try it on.

[chuckles]

Can we talk?

Yeah.

I can't let you leave tomorrow

without saying this.

Lucas, if this is about Peyton I don't--

I love you.

Brooke.

And I know we're just friends, but..

...I need you to know how I feel.

[scoffs]

[instrumental music]

I can't believe I'm hearing this.

Brooke, don't go.

I can't believe

you would walk into my bedroom

formerly your bedroom, but that's besides the point

and knowing our history

blurt out that you love me?

'Cause I was hoping you would.

[music continues]

'Brooke.'

It took you long enough.

This has gotta be a dream.

Oh!

[groans]

[sighs]

[groaning]

Lucas, do not make me join you.

Uh, a little privacy here.

No. You have been in the shower forever.

By the time I even get in the water it's gonna be..

...cold!

Are you taking a cold shower?

- No, the hot water-- - Gross, you are.

You know what, next wet dream, tell Peyton I said hi.

Ew!

[door closes]

Mom, can we get a lock on the bathroom door?

Going somewhere?

Like New Zealand?

You know, Keith was right.

Well, uh, he once told me that I-I hide my heart

and I run from love.

And I did that with Andy.

Uh, I'm just being dumb.

We don't even have money for two plane tickets

to New Zealand, right?

We have enough for one.

'Look, mom, I love you'

but I'm a big boy now

and I'll be fine on my own.

[scoffs]

It's your journey to take.

[instrumental music]

If-if I thought he was coming back soon

I wouldn't consider it.

- I know. - But your..

Dan is pulling the strings, as usual.

Not for long.

[indistinct]

Lemme ask you something.

Are you not helping me move you because it brings back bad

memories or because you're a lazy pile of crap?

You mean bad memories like these?

Oh, God.

We started off the school year this way.

Yeah, don't remind me.

- You were never happier. - You were never hornier.

Oh yeah? You want some more of that magic?

- Don't. - Come here.

- No. - Come on.

Hey, stop it, aah!

- Nathan, will you stop? - Come on.

Well, well.

'First Lucas, then Jake, now Nathan.'

I guess slutty's in season.

And why is bitch being a Brooke?

I don't know, maybe because

I'm leaving for the summer

possibly forever

'and my best friend is off giving interviews'

and having pseudo-innocent foreplay

with kind of married guys.

'Okay.'

Hi. Alternative Press?

Editorial, please.

What are you doing?

I know that you are needy right now

and so I'm postponing the interview

until after my best friend is gone for the summer.

[squeals]

Hi, Ellie Harp, please.

Oh, okay. Um, maybe I have the name wrong.

She's doing an article on Peyton Sawyer

and the Nightclub Tric.

Oh, oh.

Are you sure? Okay.

- Thanks. - You okay?

The woman said, that she knows all the columnists at the

magazine, and she's never heard

of Ellie Harp or the story.

So maybe you have the wrong magazine?

Yeah, maybe.

[dramatic music]

Every transaction's listed.

The actual sale price and the price

Dan declared to the government.

He's done it 1,000 times, Deb.

It's a federal offense.

Prison?

So why are you bringing this to me?

He's my husband.

And he's my father.

But...I figured you could use it

to get away from him

to get out.

You'd do that for me?

Yeah, and for Nathan and Keith

and everybody else he's hurt.

So this is it?

This is the smoking gun

that can bring down Dan Scott.

Yep.

[dramatic music]

[beeping]

[sighs]

Looking for something?

[door slams]

- Where is it? - Where's what?

Don't play dumb with me! Where's the ledger?

Oh, you mean the ledger that exposes my husband's

illegal activities over several years?

Tell me that ledger doesn't exist, Dan.

You don't see the big picture, Deb.

Oh, I think I do.

Just give me the damn book!

You told Nathan that my addiction was his fault.

What are you talking about?

You knew I wouldn't come back

unless Nathan was living here.

Take another pill, Deb. You're delusional.

No, I was delusional

loving you, thinking you'd change.

But I, uh, I've got clarity now, Danny boy

and I finally see you for the pathetic

broken man you are.

Lemonade?

You know a guy like me works his entire life

trying to build something..

...trying to make his mark in the world

to provide for his family.

Working hour after hour to turn the seed of an idea

into a successful business.

A fraudulent business.

A fraudulent business owned by my wife.

[instrumental music]

You know, it's a shame that

ignorance is an excuse, Deb

because when you turn in that ledger

both of Nathan's parents will be felons.

Hell, you'll just go from one institution to the next.

Today the drunk tank

tomorrow prison.

You bastard.

No, Deb.

The bastard would've been Nathan

that is, if I wouldn't have married you

and made us also happy.

Where's the ledger, Deb?

[beeps]

[instrumental continues]

[telephone rings]

Hello?

(Ellie) 'You can run, but you can't hide.'

- Who is this? - 'It's Ellie.

Where'd you get this number?

'Well, I--'

Leave me alone and don't call me.

(Nathan) 'Mom?'

- Nate. - What's going on?

You sounded freaked out on the phone.

We're gonna have to stay here for a while.

- What happened? - Nathan, I'm so sorry.

It's just your father has done some things.

- What things? - Nothing that concerns you.

- But Lucas found something. - Lucas.

'He was trying to help us, but it doesn't matter now.'

'What does matter is that you remember'

I love you, and I always will.

We were gonna get out.

And we still are, okay? I promise you.

But for now, that has to be our secret.

I want you to go to High Flyers.

Forget it, I'm not leaving you here alone with Dan.

Nathan, I'll be fine you go to that camp

and don't look back for a second.

Do you understand me?

It has to end.

Yes.

It does.

[dramatic music]

Well, here we go again.

Don't mind me, I just need your measurements.

Alright, I'll play along.

My measurements for what?

For the pine box they're gonna put you in.

I'm about to bury you, Whitey.

You crossed the line, Whitey

talking to Deb, meddling with Nathan.

You know, I occupy a seat on the school board.

I think we're gonna make some changes next season.

Don't you threaten me!

Oh, it's not a threat.

You got some health concerns, don't you?

Bad eyes and all that coupled

with a first-round playoff loss.

- Which you coached! - Because you were ill!

You know, it's a shame you never won the state title

Whitey, because as far as I'm concerned

you're never gonna coach again.

You better be careful, son.

You mess with my livelihood, I'll mess with yours.

Speaking of threats.

You know, most people, when they go

they leave the world a little

lesser place, but not you.

No.

The world won't even blink.

Well, you'd know, wouldn't you, Whitey?

You're playing with fire, Danny

and you are about to get burned.

Bring it on, old man.

[pounds fist]

Okay, I've spoken with Deb

so she's gonna look after things.

And all my numbers are near the phone.

Oh, and if Keith calls--

Mom.

[instrumental music]

Go.

If you need anything..

...well, I'll only be half a world away.

[chuckles]

Go find happiness, mom.

I love you.

[Audioslave singing "Be Yourself"]

Nathan, look--

Lucas, you said you were done.

[sighs]

'Nate, you don't wanna do that.'

I wanted to tell you.

Nate.

I was just waiting for the right time.

You went to see her.

You're just full of lies, aren't you?

Nathan!

You don't wanna push this right now, Lucas, trust me!

[dramatic music]

So the prodigal son returns.

Looking for this?

Or maybe..

...you're looking for this.

Go on, take a closer look.

How stupid do you think I'd be?

Who keeps money in a ceiling

or a ledger of their criminal activities

or uses jersey numbers as a combination?

Although you did figure that out

so you're not entirely dense.

- Why? - Why?

To test your loyalty, Lucas.

You know what the shame is?

I would've given you the world, son.

I would've welcomed you in with open arms.

But you failed the test.

And for that, you get nothing.

For that, you are nothing.

[dramatic music]

So it's all a lie..

...the money in the ceiling, the bank account in my name?

No. The account was real.

I've built that since you were a boy.

But that's gone now, too.

So is your heart medication.

The game's over. You lose.

No.

You're wrong..

...because I can finally let you go.

I mean nothing to you?

You mean nothing to me.

I'm out.

That's where you're wrong.

You'll never be out..

...son.

We'll see about that.

[music continues]

[instrumental music]

Okay.

That is the last bag, box

or suitcase I schlep this summer.

Your cab's on the way.

- I don't wanna go. - I know.

And I don't want you to go, but life sucks like that.

But, hey, you are going to be back in no time

and then we'll be seniors

and oh, what fun we will have then.

- Like what? - Mm.

Like kidnapping

and getting married

and burning letters from guys

before we read them.

Speaking of, where is our boyfriend?

I don't know.

I guess he's not even coming to say goodbye to me.

I suppose it's a test of the new me.

I'm sure he will be here.

I, on the other hand, will not.

What?

I promised Karen I wouldn't sleep on Tric

and I've gotta return the keys to Deb.

I'm sorry.

I'm gonna miss you, Brooke Penelope Davis.

I'm gonna miss you, Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer.

[indistinct singing]

- Hoes over bros? - Mm-hmm.

Buds over studs.

[instrumental music]

I thought you weren't talking to me.

I'm not.

Going to High Flyers.

Well, Nate, that's great.

When I get back

all this brother stuff is over.

What?

You lied to me, Lucas

about my dad

and about going to see Haley.

I've got enough of that in my life.

Nathan, I was trying to help.

Yeah, well, you can stop that now.

All I need you to do for me is knock

down shots next year, that's it.

We're not brothers.

We're not even friends.
