All language subtitles for One Tree Hill S01E20 What Is and What Should Never Be

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

All I have to do is think of me and I
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
peace of mind.

I'm tired of looking around and
wondering what I got to do or who I'm

to be.

I'm your kind of

player

I had the weirdest dream.

There was this rapping at my window at 4
o 'clock in the morning, followed by my

boyfriend, who has his own apartment, by
the way, asking if he could crash in my

room.

Wait a second.

I had to get out of there.

Did I mention this is a recurring dream?
This is, what, like the fourth time in

two weeks?

Not that I'm complaining. It doesn't
have to feed the purpose of having your

place. Tim keeps bringing over all these
hot chicks, which is a problem because

none of them are you.

Oh, this place is like party central.

It's not even my party.

Well, maybe it should be. Oh, we should
throw our own party, like a take -back

-the -party party.

All right.

Let's do it.

How about this Saturday?

Sounds good. I'm free.

Done.

You got to plan it, though, and make
sure it's kind of low -key.

Just a few friends, you know?

Okay. Oh, so much fun.

Now crawl back out the window before my
parents wake up and hear you.

You want to hear what?

This?

Hey,

Peyton. What's up?

Nathan and I are having a little thing
in his place on Saturday.

Hayley James, party girl. Yeah, it's not
going to be that big of a deal, but he

said I could invite whoever I want. So
do you want to come?

Hell yeah.

All right, I'll see you then. Later.

Hey, Keith.

That's Mr.

Scott.

What, I can't call you Keith anymore?

I'm just trying it out.

What do you think of me as a teacher?

High school auto shop.

Well, I think you'd be great. Why?

Because I have an interview tomorrow at
a school in Charleston.

When you said you planned on leaving, I
didn't realize it would be this fast.

Well, no reason to wait, right?

Thank you.

Hey, Luke.

Tell me you're going to practice.

Therapist says I'm ready to go. Now
that's what I'm talking about.

You didn't tell him about my proposal,
did you?

I was kind of wrestling with that.

Should I tell him you plan on leaving
town?

No, I'll do it.

He's gonna miss you.

Keep shooting, man. It'll come.

See you guys later.

Well, the good news is I'm back.

The bad news is I suck.

You okay?

Yeah, a little tight.

Okay.

You're just resting.

Pretty soon you'll really suck, just
like before.

Better?

You know, I'd tell you two to get a
room, and you've already done that.

I'll stop talking to you, and you can
definitely stop talking to me. Okay.

I mean, we're not really friends
anymore, are we?

You know, for a fake blonde, you catch
on slow.

All right, I tried apologizing to you.
I'm done trying now.

Good.

I mean, it's really pretty pathetic.

Fine.

That's what you want?

Fine.

Hey. Hey.

I got everything but the drinks.

Make it B -Y -O -B or B -Y -O -T.

Get it?

Tim? T?

You know, if you need some cash, I got
some from selling the car.

No, this party's totally on me, but
listen, I ran into some extra people and

didn't really want to say no, but it's
gonna be low -key, I promise.

Okay. Okay.

What?

You're just lucky Tim's here.

Because they got a thing for girls named
Haley James.

Really? Well, you're lucky Tim's here,
too.

Tim, go home.

What?

Um, I got more stuff in the car, so go
play. I'll kiss you later.

All right.

Damn, she sure was a surprise.

It's like everything you touch turns
cool.

You're like King Midall or something.

Were you playing this whole time?

Yeah. Your team sucks.

Hey, Mr.

Scott.

Uh... I'm leaving. See ya.

How's my wife?

You want to tell me what some guy I've
never seen before came in to put a

security system in a new Mustang? A
Mustang I thought I'd given to you as a

gift? Because I sold it.

You had no right to do that. Ted, look,
I've got expenses now.

Like rent.

Uh -uh, no, you don't get that as an
out.

I'm offering you a home. You turn me
down, you're on your own.

I want the rest of the money from the
sale. I'll take cash or a check.

Or you can keep the money and come home
with me now.

Thanks for stopping by, Dad.

We should do this more often.

We're trying to keep it small, so don't
like advertising.

Oh, hey, our lists are sealed.

Thanks for the invite, Haley.

You rock. Sure.

Hi, friend.

Hey, Brooke.

So when's the party?

Well, um, it's Saturday night.

But don't worry. I'm not going to tip
off the paparazzi. Oh, I'm not worried.

We're just trying to keep it small.

Peyton said not to invite me. No, she
didn't. Not exactly.

All right.

You know, have your little party and
play your naked twister. Look, it's

just going to be a couple of friends.

Right.

But I'm not one of them.

How much experience do you have to have
to work in a mall?

I don't know. Some.

Okay.

You want a smoothie?

On me?

What do you want? A fruit frolic with
protein?

How about something with cash in it?

Actually... Food service?

And... Mason Scott.

Can we start now?

Yeah.

Well, that was easy.

Hey.

That's your blackout CD.

Gotta have it.

Thank you.

So you smell that?

What?

That scent in the air.

I think it's called guilt.

Brooke and I called it quits today.

That sucks.

Yeah.

Normally girls don't break up. We kind
of just bitch and bicker until we can

work it out.

I'm sorry, baby.

Yeah, me too.

I'm going to miss her.

Anyway, I'm glad you came by. I was
actually going to call you.

Hi, what's up?

Haley's party.

Are you going?

Yeah. I'm great at that. I don't think
Haley's ever thrown a party.

Do you want to go together?

Not like a date or anything.

Okay, how exactly does that work?

Let's see.

We don't make out, but we don't argue. I
think we kind of just have fun.

Look, we're friends, okay? And it would
really be great if we could just be

friends. What about Brooke?

Hang out with her, date her, whatever.

You know, you and I shouldn't have to
avoid each other.

Okay.

Haley's boarding.

Great. So, what are you listening to,
huh?

Actually, I want this big 80s metal
kick. I just picked up this Rat album.

It's outstanding.

Check it out.

Well, how does it feel?

Excuse me. Can I get a napkin here?

Yes.

Here you go, sir.

Sorry about that.

Thanks.

Customers first got hope.

What? P -U -L -P. Performance,
understanding, leadership, people. Hope.

and twisted way.

Is that what they used to call your mom?

Hot and twisted?

You might be a big star at school, but
here I'm your boss.

Will you go to Tree Hill?

I'm in your history class.

Okay, here's some more recent history.

Homecoming last year, you and a few of
your Ravens buddies kicked my ass just

for fun.

Ring a bell?

Kind of.

Sorry?

Who's the tie for?

For Keith.

He's got a job interview coming up.

You're thinking of moving, Luke.

Huh? Why?

You can't get a job here?

I don't think he wants a job here.

Mom?

He proposed to me and I said no.

Hey, Luke. What's up?

Okay.

I'm sorry, man.

That's okay.

Mom told me what happened.

Said you're leaving.

We'll see.

Why didn't you tell me?

Well, because as hard as it was, your
mom turned me down.

The thought of leaving you is even
harder.

I don't want to be the second Scott
brother to do this to you.

Yeah, but you know I don't feel... that
way.

Look, I know Mom said no, but does that
mean you have to go?

It's time for me to move on, Luke.

It's just something I gotta do, whether
I get this job or not.

But look, wherever I end up, you can
always call or visit.

I'll always be the guy you can turn to.

have what you want, you know?

But... I wanted you to be my dad, too.

Ah, they were so much simpler then.

You nostalgic for sleepless nights?

Well, let's see, my, uh...

My husband won't divorce me, but my son
didn't have to think twice about it.

Well, Deb, I'm sorry.

You know, I was sitting alone in that
big, empty house, and it occurred to

me that on my long list of dumb
decisions, turning down your partnership

was one of the dumbest.

Any chance it still stands?

Of course it does.

Good.

Then let's do it. All right.

Well, I'm off to tell Dan that he's got
24 hours to clear out his things or they

go to Goodwill.

Or else I could help you burn them.

You look nice.

Thank you.

Bye, Deb.

Bye.

I wanted to give this to you before your
interview.

Oh, thanks.

That's an employee daycare call.

Oh, that's great.

It's for good luck.

Get this off?

I already tied it up for you.

You know, Lucas came by to see me last
night.

Yeah, he said he was going to.

Yeah, it really meant a lot to me.

And I think he's going to be okay.

I mean, even if I do get the job, I'm
less than three hours away, so he can

always visit me.

Here, let me help you with that collar.

There you go.

There. That's better.

Perfect.

Well, I guess I should be going.

You're going to do great.

Thanks again.

Good luck.

How goes day two?

Oh, I'm off in Hales. And it'll look
cool doing it.

I said no cell phone. You got customers,
Scott?

All right, I gotta go. Goody calls.

Did you clean the blenders yet?

No, but... I told you to do that half an
hour ago.

Okay, relax.

I can't relax.

Unlike you, I actually need this job.

What does that mean?

It means that some of us don't have a
rich daddy waiting when things get

Look, if I want to go to college, I'm
going to have to pay for it. So if

just going to waste my time, you might
as well quit now.

That's not what I'm doing. Good, because
Jerry called in sick. I'm going to need

you to cover it until 10 o 'clock, then
we clean up a new inventory.

Look, I have plans tonight. All right,
then you're fired. Take your pick.

Well, selling the shop really, you know,
couldn't be avoided.

I'm curious why you quit so soon after
they hired you on.

Well, the new management was taking
things in a different direction.

And you had a problem with that? Well,
the new management was my brother, and

he's an ass.

I see.

Mr. Scott, you may be qualified from a
technical standpoint, but teaching

teenagers is a whole other thing.

Why do you want this job?

To me, it's not about teaching them to
change a spark plug.

It's about giving them the confidence to
do something that maybe they didn't

think they could do before.

And once you do that, you've earned
their trust.

And when you have that, you can really
have an effect.

My brother's an ass, too.

You know, Nathan's not even back from
work yet, Tim, so if you want to come

later... Somebody's got to kick this
mother off.

What up, nose?

It's mouth.

Wow.

You're kind of hot.

Yeah?

So, look, I know we're just hanging out,
but, um, I got you a gift.

Dude, you shouldn't have.

I know, but I did.

All right. Well, good.

Give it to me. I love gifts.

Well, I know how you're into this whole
80s metal thing.

Aw. So, I got you the first test of the
record.

This is sweet.

Um, I got you a high five.

Do you want it now or later?

Now's good. Okay.

No one's coming, I'm sure of it.

Most people don't want to be first at a
party.

Nathan Blake, too.

Oh, finally.

What's up?

Party days out.

Um, Pam?

Do you know any of these people?

No, not really, but it's a party here.
You want people to show up, right?

Um, yeah, sure.

Yeah, cool. Cool?

Okay.

Buy you a drink?

Okay, guy, I need him a clue. Here's
one.

Women send signals, and that was brush
off.

Before you dip into your shallow pool of
wit, let me paint us a picture and save

us both the trouble.

Here's your evening.

You are going to slink back off to your
buddies, laugh this off, get wasted, go

home, and make nice with yourself. But
don't be thinking of me, because even

your fantasy of me isn't interested in
you.

Extra points for style.

And you're around your Jake sex, right?

No, he's mine.

You got a tree hill?

So, what brings you out to the big, bad,
real world? Oh, anger, alcohol, and a

fake ID.

Oh, nice combo. Men, dogs.

Two of them.

Ex -boyfriend and back... Dabbing ex
-girly best friend.

Typical. If you got a strand of hair in
five minutes, I can show you a great

curse you can put on.

Okay.

Bring it on, witch.

Okay. What are their names?

Lucas and Peyton.

And where are they tonight?

They are at a party that I was not
invited to. Can you believe that? They

around like little mongrels.

I get removed from the A -list.

Can I get the ladies anything?

Yeah, two vodka.

And, uh, two for my new friend here.

Now you're talking, would you, Poop?

Mm -hmm.

Nice move, all -star.

You know what's a shame?

I have pictures of you in your first
bath, your first haircut, first time you

walked. Here it is, your first job and
me without a camera.

Of course, if I did have a picture of
you, Mom would most likely take it in a

divorce. But that probably sounds
better.

Dad, I'm trying to work here, okay?

I can see that.

But come on, Nate.

How long are you going to keep this job?
A month? A week?

Come home with me. This is embarrassing.

No, Dad. Watching you and Mom fight is
embarrassing.

This might be the ground floor, but at
least I'm doing it on my own.

Unlike some.

Meaning what?

I could just live off Mom's money like
you did.

Okay.

All right. You got a lot to learn, kid,
but go ahead.

Impress me.

Dad.

Yeah?

Have a pretzel.

It's on me.

Nathan's got Andrew an apartment. You
have, like, the best life ever.

Well, thanks. I mean, it's not my
apartment, but... Hi.

Annie, who are all these people? Who
cares? It's a party.

Sorry I'm late.

Hope nobody minds, but I brought a
friend.

Let the game begin.

if we just invited her?

It's not your fault, Hales.

Who is this Nikki person anyway? It's
Jake's baby's mom.

Yeah. She's the train wreck.

That's not sound good.

I like

a guy who can keep...

Working tonight.

Really?

Then we'll just have to have all the
fun.

Think I got a character on this plane?

Look, Nick, you asked me to do you a
favor, and I did, okay?

I didn't tell Jake what happened.

Now, it's your turn to do me a favor,
okay? Take Brooke and get her out of

before she starts something.

All right, my friend Haley, she doesn't
need this night tonight, all right? Need

what?

Just having a little fun.

I thought I smelled something.

Oh, that's a jank. And I think it's
coming from you.

Come on, Lucas.

You

don't

remember it, do you?

Homecoming.

I remember it.

I told you, I'm sorry.

What do you need this job so bad for
anyway?

You saw my dad, right?

If I can't show a judge that I can
support myself, you gotta live with that

Well, then you better hope I don't fire
you.

All right, here's the deal, man.

I'm gonna work hard because I need this
job, not because you're gunning for me.

So you can either let it go and accept
my apology, or you can just fire me

now.

All right, I'll let it go, but you've
got to do better, man.

I will.

Pull up all the way, man.

Okay, you can take off.

You're having a party tonight, right?

Well, everyone at school knows about it.

You can stop by if you want. Right,
right.

Fry your lips off my ass and get out of
here. I'll see you tomorrow.

Thanks, Gary.

Whatever.

It's not going to sell itself.

So you're hanging out with Nikki?

Sorry, do I know you?

Well, Brooke, just don't cause me
trouble tonight, okay?

Wait a minute.

You're that tallest lying person I used
to be friends with.

Why don't you go crawling back to the
boyfriend formerly known as Mike?

Okay, this whole not being friends with
you thing is getting so much easier

every time I see you.

you're late you're gonna divide those up
too and deprive you of your glory days

wouldn't think of it oh may i or should
i pour half back

why are we going through the charade deb
you're just gonna have to unpack that

stuff later time to move out of denial
dan me in denial you're the one sitting

here creating busy work for yourself
where our son gets a job at the mall A

direct result of your irrational need to
rip the three of us apart. I ripped us

apart?

You know, Dan, if I wasn't half -drawn,
I could tell you to go screw yourself.

Here they are.

Your trophies.

Congratulations.

So this is what we've come to.

Boxing up our lives, trading insults,
drinking cheap wine. Oh, no, the wine's

not cheap.

This is our wedding crystal.

Oh, no, that's yours. I broke mine.

I don't want to do this, Deb.

I don't want to divide up our lives. Oh,
Dan, you already did. You divided this

family a long time ago.

How? What? What did I do? What, by
working hard, by building up the

giving you a nice life, a car in the
driveway, clothes on your back? You know

what, Dan?

You know what? Keep it all. Here.

You want the car?

Take the car.

You want the house?

Take the house. Deb, stop. Here, you
want the clothes off my back? Here, take

the clothes off my back. Deb, stop.

Will you stop?

What?

What else do you want, Dan?

You.

I want you.

Don't say that.

You look like you could use it. What the
hell?

Whoa!

These two are playing games.

Watch out for them. They look like they
might cheat.

Oh, you're still here.

I thought you'd be running off to tuck
in my kid.

Someone's got to.

Yeah, well, hopefully it's not some
slutty boyfriend's date.

Well, I'll drink to that.

Look, why don't you just do what you're
really good at and get some peace?

You got a problem?

Whoa, Nikki. It's not worth it. Get off
me.

I asked you if you had a problem. Yeah,
I do.

Call you, bitch.

Lucas Scott coming to the defense of his
women.

Oh, but wait.

Shouldn't that include someone else?

Don't worry.

I can keep a secret, too.

Are you sure you're okay?

What does she mean by that?

Someone else.

She's the girl I met in the bar.

Lucas got the trail train all aboard.

And you called me easy.

Haley? Oh, my gosh.

I'm so sorry. Whose apartment is this?

It's not going to be that hard to figure
out, so why don't you just save us some

time? All right. It's mine.

Everyone else, get out of here before we
start checking IDs.

Wait, what are you doing? Writing a U
.S. citation.

Me? I didn't do anything.

Underage drinking, disturbing the peace.

Look, sir, he had nothing to do with it.
He just got here.

It's his department.

It's his responsibility.

Great, I'm impressed.

You learned that in detective school?

So, want to smart off?

Fine. You can do that for myself.

What? Hey, come on. You want to join
him?

I didn't think so.

Come on, let's go.

Do you remember Christmas break first
semester?

Oh.

Yeah, we stayed on campus.

Because I was afraid to tell my parents
I was pregnant.

Oh, we were in that dorm room for days.

Everyone gone.

It's quiet.

I remember thinking that maybe the world
wasn't out there anymore.

Maybe it's just the two of us.

And all the trouble outside's just gone
away.

Oh, wait.

Yeah.

That was the real world.

It's all out there.

I gotta go.

Bang up job, Nathan.

Every time I blink, you seem to sink to
a new low.

Part of me thinks I should have left you
in there.

Maybe you should have.

Well, this experiment of yours is over.

You're coming home.

Forget it.

Now. No way. Hey, I brought you into
this world. I promise I can take you

Let him go.

And the disappointments just keep on
coming. You stay out of this.

Haley?

Go get an officer.

Let me get this straight.

Your mom runs off and has a fling. I get
the cops to drop the charges, and now

I'm the bad guy here?

Dad.

You might want to think before you start
trying to make a case for what a great

father you've been.

What do you know about me being a
father?

Exactly.

You know what?

Why don't you shut up and go talk to
your mom?

Tell her you want to know what really
happened between us back then.

And you, you want to ruin your life? Go
ahead.

I'm done here.

We'll take you home.

Hey, what are you doing up?

You know I can't sleep until you're
home.

to Keith that you went to go see him.

Are we going to talk about that?

That's not really my place, is it?

You deserve to be happy, Mom.

I mean, nobody deserves it more.

But so does Keith.

And I just thought that you could be
happy together.

You know what? I love Keith very much.

I guess I never really let my heart
completely go there. In part because he

been a very good friend.

And sometimes romance confuses a
friendship.

Yeah.

Well, I can't tell you how to feel in
your heart.

Just sucks for Keith, that's all.

Don't worry about it.

I think I thought if many people would
actually show up.

Why?

Because why would they? I mean, it's
just me.

It kind of comes with the territory, you
know?

What territory?

Popularity.

This was just your coming out party.

Any teeter girl could throw such a
rager.

No.

Thanks for sticking up for me.

Nikki, it was kind of my responsibility.

It was probably a mistake to prayer.

You think?

Judgment impaired by rage.

Cocktails, I admit it.

I'm sorry.

I want to call troops.

We're all... friends again?

It's not an enemy thing.

I was thinking about Lucas.

Now he's just a guy.

He makes mistakes like all the rest of
us.

Maybe.

It just feels so much worse when you
expect more from somebody.

Yeah.

That Nikki bitch is crazy.

I think it's

possible you and me will never get back
to the way we were.

It doesn't feel like it sometimes.

Yeah.

Sometimes.

Me too.

Hey.

I got the job.

Oh, that's great.

Yeah. I knew you would. I am.

I actually think it was a tie.

I'm pretty sure it was you.

Ah, man, I'll tell you.

I have felt for too long like everyone
else.

It's not they're living their lives.

And when they told me they wanted me, I
just... I felt good.

So when do you start?

A couple of weeks.

Wow, that's soon.

Yeah, that's soon.

Weird night, huh?

You can say that.

You know, I was thinking this morning
that you should have this divorce.

What changed your mind?

I just realized the same thing I
realized in the dorm room.

The real world's always going to be out
there.

And there's no going back.

Even change it.

Well, I might try opening up. Sometimes

I can be angry and fight.

For doing myself like I've done it
before And I won't need

anyone's help I mean anyone's help But I
might

not learn how

to fix it Or even change

it Thanks. Hey.

Look, I didn't know about Nathan and
Jake until I met her.

So she was just some stranger in a bar
you slept with?

Lucas, you don't need to apologize,
okay? It's just that... After all the

that you and I have been through, where
my head and my heart were at, I couldn't

have gone and just slept with some
stranger.

You know, when you and I first met, I
was with Nathan.

And he was, um... He was a pretty bad
guy.

Do you remember?

Yeah.

I'm not doing that again.

Who knew you two would switch places?
