Previously on "One Tree Hill.."

Hey.

Who is that lady? Is that my wife?

Team's gonna party tonight, my parents' beach house.

And why are you telling me that?

'Cause I said "The team," didn't I?

It's for you. Don't say I never gave you anything.

I'm not gonna let him screw with me.

Whatever he dishes out he's gonna get back double.

You're tutoring Nathan, right?

Yeah, you know, he said he needed some help.

Just be careful, okay?

Do I think Dan and I will get married?

'Come visit us in ten years and see how happy we are.'

- 'Who's the girl?' - It's my mom.

At least their dreams came true for one of them.

Your brother just called.

Our responsible, disciplined kid

got into a hit-and-run last night.

- Is he okay? - Hey, where you goin'?

'What about Peyton?'

The car's registered in her name.

I could lose my license for this.

I didn't know what else to do.

- He just walked away. - 'What's all this?'

It's all the crap you've left here. Take it.

Peyton, is this about your car?

It's not about the car! It's about you.

I finally saw you clearly for the first time last night

the way you treated me, the way you treated your brother.

Don't call him that.

And the way you're playing that girl!

Tell you what? I'll call you when you're not so PMS.

Don't bother. I mean it. We're done.

'So get the hell out.'

You left that in Peyton's car.

Haley!

How long are we gonna do this?

Do what?

- Avoid each other. - You tell me.

You're the one upset.

And you're the one who lied to me.

I don't know what to say to you, Luke.

Just explain to me why you were with Nathan. Huh?

I mean, considering the past few weeks and what he's done.

I can't.

You know how I feel about him, Haley.

Lucas! Fine!

Yes, I know how you feel about him

but there is something that you don't know.

I promised him I'd tutor him

if he left you alone.

What?

I'm doing it for you, Luke.

So you and Peyton are history?

'Nah.'

I wouldn't count on that.

- No? - No.

This is what she does. She freaks out. We break up.

A few days later, we make up.

So why put up with that?

'Cause a few days later, we make up.

Hey! Ball!

I expect more of that at the father-son game

'cause we're gonna crush you guys.

Oh, yeah?

You can expect more of that.

Bring it on.

- Hey. - There you go.

I'm an idiot.

I know.

And I'm sorry.

I miss hanging out with you, Hales.

Yeah, I miss hanging out with you too.

Listen, I appreciate everything you did for me.

I do, Haley, but..

...how 'bout you let me handle the team from now on, okay?

- Okay. - Alright.

So you can stop tutoring Nathan now.

- Um, no, I-I can't. - Haley.

Lucas, I can't. I promised him.

If I break that promise, I'm just as bad as..

...you think he is.

Hey, Lucas, I'm looking forward to see you play

in the father-son game this year.

Good article about you and your pop.

"Who would have known that Dan Scott's basketball pedigree

would be inherited by his two sons, Nathan Scott and Lucas."

- You got to be kidding me. - That's great, dad.

We're all one big, happy family now.

Watch it.

I wonder what they're paying this reporter

to support his crack habit.

- How about some breakfast? - I lost my appetite.

Dan, the boy exists. He's on the team.

It's not exactly headline news.

No, Deb, apparently it is.

Well, how do you think Lucas and Karen feel about it?

Gosh, I don't know.

Maybe we should invite them over

for breakfast and find out.

Alright, look, if you guys are gonna argue

I'm out of here.

'We're not arguing'

and your breakfast is getting cold.

'Oh, that's okay.'

I'm just gonna grab something

at school with my brother.

You know, there is a chance

that Lucas and Nathan could get along

if their father encouraged it.

True, but there's also a chance

that hell could freeze over.

You're not still mad at me, are you?

I'm not mad.

We're just over.

Hey, cutie.

I saw your picture in the paper.

Personally, I didn't think it did you justice.

- No? - No.

Far too much clothing.

Hey, Lucas

that father versus son game's coming up.

You considered who you wanna play with?

- I figured I'd skip it. - Oh, come on, son.

I know it's hard

but it'll be worse if you don't play.

Besides, I thought you said

you were through hiding from Dan.

I am.

Well, wouldn't it be fun to dunk on him?

Here we go!

Ravens, let's score!

Wait, hold on. Peyton, you got the arms wrong.

It's not brain surgery, Brooke.

Okay, what's with the attitude?

What's with your life?

Seriously, aren't you embarrassed that the most

important thing in your world

is some stupid cheer?

Look, I'm really sorry things didn't work out

with you and Nathan, but don't go all Mariah on me, okay?

You think this is about Nathan?

You're not even close!

You're not even in the neighborhood of close!

Okay, then what's wrong?

What's wrong is how pointless

all of this is!

- Stop saying that! - No, because it's true!

What difference does it make if you sleep a popular guy

or you go to the right party

'or you know the moves to some moronic cheer'

to do at some lame-ass game I could care less about!

Hey, you're not working today.

Yeah, I have a favor to ask.

Uh, there's this..

...father-son charity basketball game.

You know, Whitey says I gotta play

so...you interested?

Yeah.

- Yeah? - Yeah, okay.

Of course, I might be, you know, a little out of shape.

Also not to mention the fact that I..

...wasn't worth a crap in high school.

Well, that's better for us, right?

Why don't you start coming down to the court with us?

Hang with a member of the Scott basketball dynasty?

So how are you doing with that?

What are you gonna do?

- It sucks for my mom. - Yeah, what about you?

Honestly..

I can't stand being connected to Nathan or Dan.

Hey, hey, big brother!

I was getting some cardio in, ran out of water.

- You wanna help me out? - Yeah, sure. Why not?

So, uh, you wanna buy some charity tickets

to the big father-son game?

Oh, well, you know, I could if I wasn't playing in it.

Luke invited me.

Oh, great.

Well, try not to soil the Scott family name while you're at it.

Yeah, that's everyday advice for you, huh?

Hey, kid?

Seems as though you have an obligation

to the family name too.

Don't blow it.

That article's a lie.

You're not my father and you never were.

You're right. It is a lie.

You should never have had the name in the first place.

Hey!

Dan!

Are you okay?

Look, I have no responsibility

to him or his name!

So, don't let him get inside your head, okay?

You know what. I don't plan on it.

You know as a matter of fact

I think it's about time

I get out from under this guy completely.

What's that supposed to mean?

Meaning I'm not gonna be a "Scott" anymore.

I'm gonna change my last name.

You're late.

I expected you this mornin'

after that article in the paper.

I understand Lucas has asked Keith

to play in the basketball game.

- You think that's wise? - Why not?

Well, Keith isn't exactly a father.

You're not the best father, either, Danny

and you're playing.

What about Lucas?

You have to know this would be embarrassing for him.

Embarrassing for him?

What about embarrassing for you?

Wait a minute.

This isn't about Lucas and Keith.

This is all about you, Danny

and that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach

when you see the son that you never claimed.

'You were a great player..'

...maybe the best I ever had..

'...but you can score 100 points in this game..'

...and that feeling's not gonna go away.

It'll be there

until you acknowledge that Lucas is your son

and you made a mistake.

Your Uncle Keith's been working hard getting ready for the game.

He mentioned that you're thinking of

uh, changing your last name.

I just don't want people to read these stupid articles

and think I play ball just 'cause Dan did.

I don't want you to have to read that stuff.

Well, you're in the spotlight now.

Articles come with the territory.

But I don't want you to run away from that.

I'd rather you face your problems head-on.

I just..

...figured it'd make you happy if I took your name.

When I found out I was pregnant

Dan already had a basketball scholarship

and nothing was gonna get in the way of that..

...but then something strange happened.

Right before classes started, Dan changed his mind.

He said he'd finish the semester

and we'd get married.

So when I went into labor

and you appeared..

...the nurse asked for your name and I said it was "Scott."

Keith was there..

...and when the nurse brought you in

she let him hold you.

Well, I've known Keith my whole life..

...and that's the only time I've seen him cry.

Your father never showed up.

So the hell with him.

I don't want his name.

Keith's a "Scott" too, you know?

I've never been ashamed of you, Lucas

not for a second or your name.

Then, I also never had to carry that name in this town

the way you have, so if you want to change it

you have my blessing.

But it's just a name, Luke.

What you do with it is up to you.

Brooke.

Hey, have you heard from Peyton?

Not since you two broke up and she went psycho on me

in practice. Why?

'Cause she's not at school

and she won't pick up at home or on her cell.

Well, maybe she's out kicking the homeless.

A lot of smokers in this place.

I don't really smoke.

I just figured since Nathan and I broke up

I've got room for a new bad habit.

You mind if I sit down?

She was quite a gal, your mother.

Yeah.

She used to lead cheers for my team too.

And you've got her looks.

I don't really remember her.

Oh, I do. She was a wily one.

Your old man didn't stand a chance.

So what are you doing here, making a reservation?

You better watch it.

No.

No, my wife, Camilla, is buried out here

right over beyond those trees.

I couldn't get in a word edgewise while she was alive

so I come out here and..

...visit..

...tell her about things.

Do you think she's listenin'?

Oh, yeah.

I know she's listening.

I lost my wife just about the time

your mother..

...passed away.

That always makes this week a tough one.

They're all tough.

Yeah.

The good news is you did better

and the bad news is better is a "D."

Yeah, I guess I didn't really give this one my best shot.

What's going on with you?

Well, you know me and Peyton broke up.

Peyton and I.

What, she broke up with you too?

I just...I didn't know she was gonna take it this hard.

She went off on Brooke at practice.

I'm kind of worried about her.

Well, maybe you should have worried about her more

when you were together.

I'm sorry, but come on, it's true.

No, you don't know

the first thing about Peyton and I.

- Me and Peyton. - Whatever.

Why do you do this?

If I were you, I'd get back out now.

Not until you tell me what's going on.

Come on, slow down, Peyton. Come on!

'Slow the car down!'

Peyton, slow the car down.

She was driving to school to pick me up.

She was late, so she ran a red light.

It was one light at the wrong split second

and it ended for her.

My mom ran one red light.

I run them all the time and nothing happens.

It's not fair.

No, it's not.

You can get out now.

Or I can stay if you want.

No.

You can't.

Hey, hey!

Hey, twice in a week.

That's got to be some kind of record.

Yeah, well, it's this father-son thing.

Yeah. How 'bout a frosty?

No, I'm in training.

It's just a game, Dan.

No, it's a public event.

I mean, what are people gonna think

especially after that article?

Oh, yeah.

About that..

...what in the hell's wrong with you telling Lucas

he never deserved the name "Scott?"

- Well, he doesn't. - The hell he doesn't!

- You fathered him, Dan. - That's right.

Which brings me to my original point.

What do you think you're doing playing in the basketball game?

I mean whatever you think you are to Karen and her son

you're not a husband or a father.

How much a suit like that cost?

'Cause it's gonna look like hell when I lay you out

all over that greasy floor.

- Come on, big brother. - That's right. Big brother.

And no matter what you did on the basketball court

a lifetime ago, no matter what you do now

'I'll always be your big brother.'

'So guess what, Danny boy?'

It was my name first. It's Lucas' name now.

There's nothing you can do about it.

Okay, Keith.

You know, you can be ashamed of me..

...and you can be ashamed of Lucas..

but what makes you think

we're not just as ashamed of you, huh?

Now get out of my shop.

Hey.

Hi.

Well, you never know who you're gonna see

in the boys' locker room these days.

Or what you'll see.

I thought maybe you could talk..

...unless you're too busy.

No, sure, we can talk.

You still in denial?

About what?

Missing her.

It's okay that you do.

What are you, my tutor or my shrink?

Whatever you need.

I treated Peyton pretty bad.

She had every right to walk away.

Okay, yeah, it was my fault.

I...I screwed up.

I just wish I had another chance.

Nice work.

That was the truth.

No, on your practice exam.

- Eighty one. - Oh.

You know, it's funny.

I think we've actually talked more than Peyton and I ever did.

"Peyton and I"...good job!

Yeah, you too.

Hey, are you comin' to the game?

Um, that depends on how you do on your English exam.

Anything less than an 81

I'm staying home and watching "The office."

- Alright. - Okay.

- Haley? - Yeah?

I know this hasn't been easy for you.

I just want to say thanks.

Good luck.

'My wife wouldn't let me smoke in the house'

so, uh, I got in the habit

of comin' up here to this bridge.

I'd offer you one

but I know you're trying to cut down.

How long have you been coaching?

Too long.

Do you ever wonder about it?

What?

I mean you spent your whole life

watching boys play a game.

Well, I'd prefer to think

that I was teaching them to play.

Yeah, sometimes I think

about the conversations that went unfinished

between me and my wife

holidays I missed because I was off coaching somewhere.

That's when I come the closest to thinking it was a mistake.

- Do you miss her? - Every day.

Peyton..

...it's hard to lose somebody.

I spent a lot of time searching for reasons

for answers..

...but you can't find what's not there.

It just happens.

So you gonna light that thing or what?

No.

I used to love cigars

but I haven't smoked one

since...I lost Camilla.

I don't even carry matches anymore.

I don't guess I've been much help to you

but I do know one thing.

Your mother's proud of you.

Take care of yourself, kiddo.

- Hey. - Hey.

I really don't wanna be like this, Luke.

How's that?

This, us skirting around each other.

I mean, we're friends.

You know, when you wanted to join the team

I didn't understand it and I told you that

but I supported you.

I know.

So, support me.

When I'm tutoring someone, and they get it..

...and that light goes on..

...I feel good, I feel worthy

the same way that you feel when you play basketball.

Besides, haven't things gotten better for you?

The team's left you alone, the hazing stopped?

Yeah, so..

...that's worth the risk for me.

What's not worth the risk is us.

We're friends and that is important to me.

You're just tutoring him?

I am just tutoring him.

That's it.

- Okay. - Okay.

Oh, game.

I think I pulled a kidney.

- You alright? - Yeah.

Yeah.

So, you, uh

decide on the name thing yet?

Well, I downloaded the forms.

Uh, mom's still got to sign off on them.

Mind if I tell you what I think?

I think you just did.

I know I'm not your father

and I'd never try to tell you what to do

but I just..

...I just wish you'd think about it.

I will.

And you know you don't have to play if you don't want to.

And why do you say that?

Well, I, I know I put you in a weird spot.

Dan and Nathan are your family too, right?

Hell, as far as I'm concerned..

...you and your mom are my family

as long as you'll have me.

'Now, Dan and I, we, uh'

we never seen eye to eye, even when we were kids.

And...Nathan's practically a stranger.

Besides, uh..

...I was honored that you asked me to play.

Good.

I was hoping you'd say that.

Listen, I'm gonna take off.

- 'Okay.' - Talk to you later.

See you.

Take care, alright?

- Hey, Keith? - Yeah.

- Thanks. - Yeah.

How's my boy?

Why?

Dad send you to spy on me, poison my drink?

You know, you'd think he organized

this entire game himself

just so he could get back on the court.

I know he's been tough on you lately, Nate

but I want you to know

things are gonna change around here.

I just wish he'd lay off, you know?

'I want to do good for him.'

He just gets so worked up about this stuff.

Well, if you don't wanna play, don't play.

He'll get over it.

You know that's a lie, mom.

Hey.

I've been thinkin' about you.

Try a cold shower.

Sorry.

You teed yourself up for that one.

Yeah, I guess so.

How you doin'?

Let's see.

Um, I broke up with my boyfriend

my mom's dead

and my dad's away on a job.

What's your dad do?

He captains a drudging boat.

He's normally here for this warped anniversary

but this year, he sent his sympathies in an e-mail.

I read your article.

It makes it seem like you guys are just one great

big, happy family.

Yeah, it's kind of ironic, huh?

You know, I would gladly erase my dad

if it could bring back your mom.

I wish I could change it for you.

Thank you.

I gotta go.

Hey, Peyton.

Don't ruin it, okay?

Excited about your game tomorrow?

Truthfully?

It's like Christmas eve.

And have you been naughty or nice?

Have I been naughty?

Well, which would you prefer?

Honey, I know this is important to you

and I-I know that Nathan is talented

but I think you push him

too hard sometimes.

Um, I worry

that he won't enjoy it anymore.

No, he enjoys it.

If he doesn't, he'll regret it when it's gone.

- Do you? - Every day.

There's nothing like it, Deb.

Walking into the arena

hearing the cheers of a sell-out crowd

knowing it's gonna be your night..

...and for an hour or two, the world is yours..

...and there's nothing they can do to stop it.

I wish I would have known you then.

I wish you could have been there.

No decisions to make, cars to sell

bills to pay.

Just the game..

...and I was good.

It's the best it ever was for me.

Better than your life now?

Better than knowing your son..

...or me?

It was different.

What do you call that?

"Love."

What do you want, Nathan?

It's what I don't want.

I don't want this for us.

Maybe you should have thought of that sooner.

Yeah, I know.

I've been thinking about how we were

when we started going out..

...like that day at Wrightsville Beach

or the nights here in your room.

We haven't been that way in a long time.

We could be.

Come on, Peyton.

I've been thinking about you.

I know you've been thinking about me.

I've actually had a lot going on lately.

Yeah, me too.

My dad's been going crazy about this father-son game

and my mom..

...it's like ever since she came back

she's been wanting to hang out.

I really can't hear this right now.

Alright.

Well, how about you come to the game?

Maybe we can hang out afterwards.

I miss you, Peyton.

I'll see you there.

I'll catch up to you later, man.

- Got a sec? - Hey, yeah. What's up?

Check that out.

An 84! That's so great!

Yeah, hey, congratulations!

'Hey, Dan the man'

are you gonna carry us tonight or what?

Oh, you know it, Bruce.

I'll carry the team, and Keith can carry my jock.

Keith, it's good to see you, man.

You too, Bruce.

I didn't know you had a son that played ball too.

Well, actually, I'm just a stand-in.

One of the boys doesn't have a father.

Luke! Lucas!

Hey, Scott!

'Good evening, ladies and gentlemen'

and welcome to the Tree Hill Ravens

father-son charity basketball game.

'Tonight, the fathers battle the sons'

and the winners get bragging rights.

Fathers!

Jumping center tonight

for the Ravens son is league MVP

'Nathan Scott.'

'And for the fathers, the all-time leading scorer'

in the history of Tree Hill

and a member of the state championship runner-up

put your hands together for Dan Scott.

Sounds like your old man got a louder applause than you did.

Are you sure your hearing aid's not turned up too loud?

- Okay. - Uh-huh.

You guys suck out there. It's embarrassing.

For you, maybe.

Come on.

You play with house with a girl

I get pregnant in high school

and I'm supposed to be embarrassed?

It's embarrassing because we're old men, Dan

playing horribly and that's the way it's supposed to be.

Not for me.

Enemy approaching.

That's right, enemy approaching.

You gonna bring your best game or what?

You're down by 30, dad.

No, I'm talking to you.

You bring your best game, I'll bring mine and then we'll see.

We'll see what?

We'll see who's the best

or maybe you'd rather not know?

Hey! Come on, relax, little brother.

This isn't your place, Keith.

'Well, it's not your place, either, Dan.'

It's their game now.

We should be proud they're so good.

Like you had anything to do with it.

You walk away, Danny.

Let's see what you got.

Any of you give me your best game and..

...I'm gonna hurt you.

Hey, you're doing fine.

'And welcome back to the second half, ladies and gentlemen..'

Lucas. Luke? Are you mad at me?

What's going on?

I don't wanna talk about it right now.

Okay, can you just tell me what I did, please?

- I saw you with him. - Nathan?

God! He got a good grade on a math quiz!

It was nothing!

I wanna believe you, Haley, I do

but I don't think you're telling the truth.

I am telling the truth, Lucas.

There's-there's nothing going on.

'...and in the charity basketball game coming up.'

Nice bracelet.

'Well, folks, an impressive showing for Dan Scott'

but the kids are just too much.

What do you say we make this interesting?

Let's make the score 0-0

'and the next basket wins.'

Alright, just give me the ball.

Alright, let's go, fellas.

Ravens on three. One, two, three!

Ravens!

'So the Ravens' sons have the ball and the next basket wins.'

Game over, dad.

'Nathan Scott to the tape.'

'He catches the ball in the wing. He rides to..'

'Lets hope the young man's okay'

You okay?

I couldn't give you the winning bucket, Nathan.

You want to beat him?

Yeah, but I wanna do it myself.

'Well, good news, folks.'

'Nathan seems to be okay.'

'And the Ravens sons still have a crack at it.'

'Lucas Scott hands the ball to Nathan.'

'He drives. Oh, he drops the ball.'

'It's moving. That will create a turnover.'

'The fathers have a crack at it.'

'Looks like its payback time.'

That was a sloppy turnover, Nathan. That's not like you.

That's because it was on purpose.

On purpose? Why?

Because you don't deserve my best game, dad.

Look, I could have beat you.

You know it and I know it.

And you know what? If you wanna win so bad, go ahead.

I'll give it to you.

You didn't beat me, dad.

You never will.

Good game.

What, are you kidding me?

I was by far the worst one out there.

That includes old Mr. Gutierrez and his wooden leg.

Oh, Keith, you know it was never about basketball.

And just so you know..

...what you did for Nathan..

...what you've done for me..

...let's just say I was proud to have you

as my dad for the night.

You know, I've been thinking about what you said

about the "Scott" name and..

...and I think I'll keep it.

I just hope I can wear it as well as you.

Thanks.

Peyton.

I'm glad you came. I knew you would.

I want you to know things are gonna be different for us.

Did you know that my mom died tonight..

...seven years ago?

You didn't know 'cause you never asked.

I didn't come here for you tonight.

Then why'd you come?
