Original subtitles

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.

* 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 have 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 have peace of mind

* I'm tired of looking 'round rooms *

* wondering what I got to do

* or who I'm supposed to be

* I don't want to be anything

* other than me

hey.

[ Sighs ] 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.

How you feeling, Ms. Scott?

Coach! how you doing?

Well, I guess you're waiting for Danny.

Uh, yeah, yeah, he planned to pick me up.

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?

Over there by the...

I got it.

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.

[ Chuckles ] 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?

[ Chuckles ] know it? I read it cover to cover.

Which column?

Actually, it's a new one,

but I heard some high-school chick 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."

Hmm.

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.

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

[ 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 ]

I'm just bringing this back to you.

You gave me your word, Luke.

[ Sighs ] i know, and I'm done.

I promise.

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.

We're gonna be a family again.

Welcome home.

* I fight my demons every day

[ computer chimes ]

* come and go

* ebb and flow

* like the ocean

[ keyboard clacking ]

* you think you know me, and you know me *

* but you don't know

* how scared I am

Brooke: hi-ho!

Oh, god!

You scared the hell out of me.

You don't know anybody

who has the I.M. Name "watchmewatchu," do you?

Hmm. sounds pervy.

Sadly no. Why?

Uh, it 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?

Mnh-mnh.

I can't, 'cause if you hug me,

then I'm gonna start bawling again, so...

Some summer break, huh?

[ Sighs ] well, 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?

[ Chuckles ] I don't know. That's kind of up to you.

Oh, yeah?

It can wait. Your head is spinning.

Brooke, considering you're leaving tomorrow, it can't wait.

[ Groans ]

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 want to 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.

[ 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? You don't want to take some time?

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.

Your hair's pulled back,

which probably means you're not going to impress any boys today.

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

and not the schoolgirl-crush kind, the real thing.

Um...

Okay.

Uh, 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?

God, I mean, everything unnecessary,

like cliques and greed

and popularity and harassment.

The song remains the same.

Yeah, as far as I can tell, it does.

Deb: 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.

Okay, come on.

Where's the combination?

[ Sighs ]

[ Beeping ]

Damn it.

[ Beeping ]

[ Safe clicks ]

[ Sighs ]

Game over.

[ Knock on door ]

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 ]

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.

Brooke...

It took you long enough.

[ Chuckles ]

This has got to 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 is gonna be...

[ Gasps ] 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!

[ Sighs ]

[ Door closes ]

[ Sighs ]

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

Going somewhere...

Like New Zealand?

You know, Keith was right.

Uh, he once told me that i-i hide my heart,

and I run from love.

And I did that with Andy.

[ Sighs ] 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.

[ Chuckles ]

It's your journey to take.

[ Sighs ]

If I thought he was coming back soon, I wouldn't consider it.

I know. But your --

[ sighs ]

Dan is pulling the strings, as usual.

Not for long.

Let me 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.

Don't remind me.

You were never happier.

You were never hornier.

Yeah? you want some more of that magic?

Don't. come here.

No. come on.

Stop it! Aah!

Will you stop?!

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.

[ Speed-dialing ]

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. are you sure?

Okay.

Thanks.

You okay?

The woman said 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.

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?

Yeah.

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.

[ Beeping ]

[ Sighs ]

Looking for something?

[ Door closes, footsteps approach ]

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.

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'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.

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 happy.

Where's the ledger, Deb?

[ Computer chimes ]

[ Telephone ringing ]

Hello?

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.

Well, here we go again.

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

All right, 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...

Go.

If you need anything...

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

[ Chuckles ]

Go find happiness, mom.

I love you.

[ Audioslave's "out of exile" plays ]

I love you, too.

[ Sighs ]

* someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone *

what's going on?

Where is it?

Where's what?

Whatever it is you have on my dad -- where is it?

Nathan, look --

Lucas, you said you were done.

[ Sighs ]

Nate, you don't want to 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 want to push this right now, Lucas, trust me!

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.

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.

Okay.

That is the last bag, box, or suitcase I schlepp this summer.

Your cab's on the way.

I don't want to 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.

Hos over bros?

Mm-hmm. buds over studs.

[ Chuckles ]

I thought you weren't talking to me.

I'm not.

I'm going to high flyers.

Well, Nate, that's great.

And when I get back, all this brother stuff is over.

What?

You lied to me, Lucas --

about my dad, 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.

* ...Out of your skin

* there's dry blood

* on your wrist

[ car horn honks ]

"Well...

I'll see you, Brooke. Have a nice summer."

Oh, thanks, everybody. [ Scoffs ]

Talking to yourself?

What, is your summer job driving a cab?

[ Chuckles ]

I put your stuff in the car.

So I guess this is goodbye.

[ Exhales sharply ]

* looking at you now

* you would never know

[ chuckles ]

* I see it in your eyes

* I see it in your eyes

* you'll be...

Tell me that was a goodbye kiss.

I want to be with you, Brooke.

* I see it in your eyes

what?

I'm sorry.

I know we're friends. It's just how I feel.

But what about Peyton's stuff?

I keep that stuff

as a reminder of how badly i screwed up things...

With you...

To remind myself that if I ever had a second chance,

I'd never let you go again.

I don't know what to say.

I, uh...

[ Car horn honks ]

[ Sniffles ]

I got to go.

Brooke!

Do you think you could ever --

Lucas...

I'm sorry.

[ Sniffles ]

I got to go.

Bye.

[ Door closes ]

Have a nice summer, Brooke.

[ Veils' "lavinia" plays ]

[ doorbell rings ]

Jake.

* my sweet lavinia

I know it's late. I --

you're right. It is late.

As a matter of fact,

it's half past the crazy bitch, so leave me alone.

Peyton, I can explain.

Explain what?

That you're a stalker, or that you're insane,

and you've been sending me creepy e-mails?

I didn't send you anything.

Yeah, right. I called your supposed magazine.

They've never even heard of you.

My name is Elizabeth.

Great. so even your name is a lie.

Like your middle name...

Elizabeth.

It's where you got your middle name.

Who are you?

* my sweet lavinia

I'm your mother.

* my sweet lavinia

* my sweet lavinia

oh.

* my sweet lavinia

[ grunts ]

[ coughs ]

Oh, Nathan, i was hoping that was you.

I've been here alone all night.

I had something to do.

Oh, honey.

I know this is hard for you,

but, I promise you, we'll be free soon.

I know we will.

Do you need help with anything?

No, I just --

I have one more bag in the car.

Okay.

[ Music continues ]

Hi.

Looks like it's just you and me this summer.

[ Music continues ]

Lucas: Tennessee Williams once wrote...

"We all live in a house of fire.

"No fire department to call, no way out.

"Just the upstairs window to look out of...

"While the fire burns the house down...

With us trapped, locked in it."
