Show: South of Nowhere - 2x11

Ashley, do you want...
Oh!
Hi, Spencer!
Sorry, I didn't know that you were here.
Oh, that's okay.
I just came over to surprise Ashley with some coffee and donuts.
But she's on the patio talking over something.
Do you want the other coffee?
Yeah, sure!
Who is she talking to?
Aiden, I think.
Sorry.
Whatever.
Why don't they just get back together and put us all out of our misery?
No!
Hello, I like being with her!
It's not what I mean.
I mean, it's just like all so incestuous.
Yeah well, it wasn't nearly as bad until you got here.
Is that my coffee?
Yeah, I'm sorry!
It must be really nice to have somebody bringing coffee and donuts in the morning.
Yeah, it is!
And what do you want?
I already told you I don't have your Kelly Clarkson CD.
Oh, I love Kelly Clarkson!
And I love you anyway.
I've got some fabulous news for you, girls!
Your father's band has been asked to do a tribute for him on some MTV awards show and they would like you two girls to be presenters!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Then I'll take that as a yes.
I will give the producer a call and have him bring over the information.
Oh my God!
I cant' believe it's real!
Oh my God, it's gonna be so cool!
I'll just call all my friends in Baltimore and tell them to watch!
And tell my mom!
Shut the door!
Oh my God!
This is so exciting for you guys!
No, you should come!
No, this is totally something for you and Kyla.
I mean, it's something special you can share for your dad.
I have something for you.
What?
What is this?
Open it!
I wanted to give it to you for our anniversary or whatever but I couldn't wait and you deserve it.
I deserve what?
Open it!
Me!
A full night of me!
Oh my God!
Good for one night of undivided attention and devotion from Ashley.
Oh my God, you're so lucky that I think you're cute and funny or else you’d be a complete egomaniac!
But I'm your egomaniac.
So, is everything okay between you and my brother?
Did he say something to you?
No, I just haven't seen you around, actually.
You know, we're fine.
It's just, you know, lots of stuff lately...
But how are things between you and Ashley and the fam?
Well, you know mom.
She's just gonna have to get used to it.
Hey!
At least, it's off of our face!
Thanks to my dad!
Well, that's good.
I'm glad it's better.
I know how hard it is when you feel that you don't live up to their expectations.
No, seriously though, how are you dealing with the bore of not having Aiden around?
Wait, Aiden?
Who's that?
Right!
You're not like much of an actress!
Oh my God!
You know, he did like how you pushed him into doing new things.
Did he tell you that somehow?
He told me that he likes you a lot!
Okay.
Really, I seriously should have never put my Spanish book in here!
How the hell do you find anything in this mess?
What, Kyla?
I have everything I'm needing right here.
My lip gloss and the car keys.
School books?
Homework?
I don't care.
Trust fund.
Okay!
Well, whatever, forget it.
I'll just share with the cute boy next to me!
Yes, I like that!
Back in the saddle!
Go, girl!
Yeah!
Oh, wait!
Hey!
We have that lunch together.
We have to get our MTV talk!
Yeah.
Okay!
Ms.
Davies, you're late.
Again.
Yes, ah...
Oh!
My sister ate my homework!
Study hall.
And you'll be making this class up after school.
I've no idea why my mom is so worried about me being with her.
So, do you think Ashley will give you a ride home today?
Sure.
Why are you asking?
A date?
Yeah.
With Narcotics Anonymous.
I am proud of you, Glen.
You know, you're facing it.
I'm sure you'll be okay.
Thanks.
It's weird, not seeing Madison around here.
That's what it is!
No Madison!
You know, I was wondering why it was all rainbows and sunshine around here...
She's been out of school for a while.
I hope she's okay.
So, I never see you anymore.
Yeah, but it's just...
I'm just so crazy with school, the play and everything.
Seriously, the other day, I actually dreamt that I was sleeping!
You know, me too.
I mean, I'm busy.
You know, with the training off season...
School...
Listen, Kyla.
I wanted to...
Okay, so I was kicked out of English lit.
Again.
So I sat to do some research.
You and I both need to look different, but awfully hot.
Why?
What's going on?
Me and this cute little child on TV on stage of the MTV awards honoring dad.
Waw, that's awesome!
I know!
Oh hey, and tips for the single one: You can hook up with the celebrities, its' cool, guitars, but never ever go home with a roadie.
Are you planning on hooking up at the Awards show?
No!
Maybe...
I don't know.
I'm just gonna be open to whatever, you know?
Open.
The whole future's ahead of you, sis.
And it's not going nowhere.
Thank you.
I really needed to hear that.
You and I have been friends for a long time.
Even before our boy showed up.
True!
Hey!
What's going on?
Hey, baby!
How do you feel?
I'm okay.
Still a little queasy.
Do you want me to get you some ginger ale from the canteen?
Oh no, I'm all right.
Hey Sean, can you give us a little second?
Sure.
I gotta go to chess club.
Linda sure gets me when I'm late.
Thanks.
Hey...
I've been doing some research.
All right?
I've got a list of adoption agencies.
Adoption agencies?
And just in case we decide we wanna keep it.
Keep it?
Maybe.
More books...
Hi.
My name's Glen and I'm an addict.
Hi Glen!
Hi Glen!
It started with pain killers for a knee injury.
But, pretty soon, I didn't really care about my knee or basketball or anything.
Just taking those pills.
I had a lot of opportunities that I had planned and worked hard for that I've let slip away.
I hope to get those back.
Thanks.
Thanks Glen.
Okay, everybody, let's take a quick coffee break.
Glen, right?
Huh, yeah, hi!
I'm Monica.
Hi.
You're a virgin, aren't you?
What?
No!
I mean, to the program.
You're new.
Actually, last week was my first time.
Here!
My first time here.
Right.
Yeah.
Well, I'm looking forward to getting to know each other better.
That is if you can handle my deep, dark secrets.
Deep, dark secrets are my new drug, so...
I really liked what you said about not letting go of everything you've worked for.
I totally get that.
Cool.
I'm glad I could be of service.
Well, hopefully I can return the favor sometime.
Sweet!
Hey, baby!
I got you message!
You sounded...
Freaked?
Yeah.
You okay?
I don't know, Clay.
I mean, that list of adoption agencies and that baby book...
I know, it's a lot to take in.
No, it's too much!
Yeah, maybe we'll just take this step by step.
We'll meet with some adoption agencies, maybe some young parents...
Clay, stop!
Okay, I've already made my decision.
I'm not having this baby.
I called the clinic and I go tomorrow at 5 PM.
I'm sorry, can you explain what's happening, please?
We're kids, Clay!
I cant' have a kid.
And I can't go on living my life knowing that I have a child out there that I just gave away!
So, you'd just rather...
I can't believe this.
Okay, you said that you would support me no matter what decision we made.
We didn't make this one.
You did.
I need to do this.
And I want you to be there!
I can't.
Hi!
My name is Spencer and I am an Aiden addict.
Okay.
So, we went, like, on two dates.
And then, the first one, I hurled and the second one I cried because I realized that I was more into his ex.
I'm Kyla.
And I'm and Aiden addict, too.
Hi, Kyla!
I crushed on Aiden until I found out that he got my sister pregnant and didn't tell me.
We dated anyway, until he dumped me because he thought that I was a two-faced whore!
You win!
No, Ashley does.
Oh, it's weird, though.
With their history, it's strange that they're still best friends, you know.
Wait, you think they're best friends?
I don't know.
The sideways glances, the inside jokes, finishing each other's sentences...
Come on, you're telling me?...
Hi, girls!
Okay, if you're gonna wear that, I'm definitely gonna have to wear something else.
Your dad let me in.
Can we talk for a minute?
I'm all talked out, man.
Yeah, I get that.
But I just saw Chelsea and she's a mess.
Sean, save your breath!
Look, Chelsea's decided, and that's that!
I haven't even talked to her since yesterday when she told me.
And because you don't like her choice, you abandon on her own the one that you love?
You're gonna leave her to face this?
By herself?
Yeah, way to show up, man!
Excuse me?
I'm not the one doing the abandoning.
She is!
Quit making this about your childhood, man!
Your experience with your mom.
This is about her childhood!
What's left of it.
I need you to step out, man, because right now your opinion is no longer welcome.
There's the door.
You'd better grow up if you wanna be a dad!
I won't be a dad!
Take it easy!
Are you guys kidding me?
What the hell is going on, here?
Sean's getting on with something that's none of his business!
Somebody has to.
This is not like you.
It's Chelsea.
Okay, Ronda.
You're gonna have to stop bringing these cookies.
I struggle with addiction, remember?
Duly noted!
Carrot sticks, next week.
I'll leave you two to chat.
Great!
So now, we can't even have our sugar high?
Sorry!
You know, you look so familiar.
Do you live around here?
Yeah.
Really?
Me too.
I live on Harper, right off Melrose.
Do you need a ride home?
Actually, my car is off commission.
So, absolutely!
These are all full!
Why don't I have any blank tapes?
Because you film everything?
This one doesn't have a label.
All right, let's watch it.
Fine.
I'll start.
What's this?
'I'm in love with you.
Forever.
' 'Say it again.
' Spencer...
Shut it off!
'No, not at the camera.
' '-The first guy?
Person.
' 'I don't believe you.
' '- I am in love with you.
I'm sorry, what was that?
' 'I am in love with you!
' Girls, the limousine is here.
We're all gonna be late.
Ashley, I know that everyone is wearing lingerie as evening wear to the MTV awards, but, honestly!
Relax, mom!
I'm not even done, yet.
Spencer, that tape is ancient, okay?
I made it with him when we were sophomores.
I'd totally forgotten I even had it.
Okay.
Well, I'm ready!
So I'm gonna go to the limo and play with the windows or something.
I'll see you around.
I'll see you at school, okay?
Bye, Spencer.
All right, you two need to leave now as well.
I'm turning on the security system.
You guys seemed so happy together.
I'm sorry that upset you.
Can we talk about this later?
Come on!
I will just call you from backstage, okay?
Hello.
Hey, Spencer!
It's Chelsea.
I need your help.
I'm at the Fairway clinic at Fairfax.
What are you doing there?
I'm getting an abortion.
I'm on my way!
Thanks.
So, jail was your wake-up call?
I'm mean, you can't really get much lower than that.
Oh yeah?
Try waking up on stage in an empty theater in your bra and underwear having no idea how you got there.
No way!
And instead of trying to figure out what's going on, I smoked a ball, swallowed some pills, washed it down with a fit of vodka...
That's intense!
Sort of.
Yeah, it was pretty haw when I threw up all over myself, you know what I'm saying?
I really like talking to you.
I like talking to me, too.
And, I like not talking.
No, stop!
What are you doing?
Well, I thought we both wanted to...
Yeah, that's a good idea.
When I've been thirty days sober and I'm hooking up with an addict.
I think we can help each other!
I mean, we can find something new to do other than just thinking about getting high.
No.
How old are you anyway?
I'm almost 18.
Get out!
Chelsea, why isn't Clay here?
Because he doesn't agree with the choice I'm making.
And I just couldn't wait any longer, so...
I feel really bad.
I'm putting you in, like, a terrible position.
No!
Chels, I wanna be here!
I love both of you.
Chelsea Lewis?
That's me.
Look, I don't need any more advice.
Chelsea's in the driving seat now, and I'm just along for the ride.
Are you?
Looks to me like you're still waiting on the curb for her to turn around and come back in your direction.
Cecily, did you bring those photos we talked about?
I did.
What photos?
Your mom thought you might like to see some of my early photos of you.
You kept photos of me?
Of course I did!
There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't look at them, or at least touch the envelope in my purse.
Say a little prayer for your new life.
There aren't that many.
I didn't have you for very long.
I figured out pretty quick I wasn't gonna be any good for you.
Thanks.
You look so young!
I was!
Fifteen.
Younger than you and Chelsea.
The only difference is I didn't have any real opportunities like you two.
Thank God, your mother and father were there to do what I couldn't.
We got lucky.
We did.
It makes me mad to think of her there alone.
Just waiting in that clinic.
That's the one thing you can change.
You know, it doesn't mean that your opinion has shifted.
It just means that you love her.
I do.
Clay!
Where is she?
She called me.
She didn't wanna be alone.
Where are her parents?
They offered to come, but she just didn't want them here.
They've been pretty tense since she told them.
I should have been there for her!
Don't beat yourself up!
You're here now!
Okay?
Okay.
I couldn't go through with this.
It's okay, it's okay.
We're gonna be okay.
This is Cecily.
Hi!
Hi!
Everything is gonna be fine.
I apologize.
Thank you for being on time, Miss Davies!
No problemo.
Hey!
I called you during the show.
Look, about the video...
It was real then.
But it's not anymore!
I know that.
It's just...
That was really hard to see.
I don't like feeling jealous.
I know.
I'm really sorry.
Thank you.
Listen, I don't wanna talk about that today.
I don't care.
I just...
We could be going through so much more!
I'm just glad that we have each other.
Really?
Okay!
Well then, I will talk about the plans for this week-end.
Okay.
Now, I wanted them to be a surprise but they're kind of elaborate and I don't wanna spoil it...
Ash!
I just wanna do something simple.
Just you and me.
Okay!
