Hellcats (2010–2011): Season 1, Episode 17 - Don't Make Promises (You Can't Keep) - full transcript

Hearing from Travis he's playing a song written by her late father, Marti confronts her mother for never having told her anything about her other parent. Red Raymond smooths some feather ruffled in the eventful previous episodes. Horrified, the Hellcats discover the sing they used for their national finals routine was promised exclusively to their captain, but also to the Memphis competitors, by a member each of the same obscure band. The boys make the teams woe them for binding exclusivity, but overplay their hand. Charlotte and her mother are shocked that her kid sister carries her ex Noah Cambell's baby, and he isn't even fully over her.

Previously on "Hellcats"...

Charlotte...
**** ***** sisters.

You're not the only one
with a complicated family.

I took a bunch of pregnancy tests...

And they all said positive.

Wanna tell me who the guy was?

That doesn't matter.

How's
Travis working out?

Best server I got.

Good roommate, too.

I'm sorry.



I'm sure all brides
get nervous on the day.

I just thought that
I had more time to be sure.

Is it Red Raymond?

I'm sorry.

That's Noah.

As in
ex-boyfriend Noah?

What about the connection we have?

We've always had.

I want to grow old with you.

I don't know what to say to that.

To beat Mem-Chris,
we have to pull off

the routine of our lives.

Zero margin for error.

The Lancer Hellcats win it!



We're going to Nationals!

5, 6, 7, 8.

Now we're
up to the chest.

Arms shake and make your head drop.

This is really tight or else there's
no point in doing it, right?

Last time.

5, 6, 7, 8.

Shake it.
7. Good. Pa-da-da.

That's a good track
right there. Who is that?

Some new band. Werewolf vs.
Unicorn. They play locally.

Alice found them.

It's pretty good.
"Pretty good"?

Very good?

It's awesome.

Werewolf vs. Unicorn
plays all the clubs.

I tracked down their
bassist, chatted him up,

bought him some drinks,
and scored our new song.

It's exclusive and unknown,

which makes it special.

Yeah. A fresh song
to give us the edge

that we need at Nationals.

Last year, Tennessee
and Fort Hill lost

because both squads used
the same Li'l Kim song.

Why would they use
any Li'l Kim song?

Don't be a hater, Marti.

Fine. Whatever.
I defer to my captain.

Hi.

- Oh, can I...
- Can I see...

Oh.

I think it's me.

I wanted you to be the first to know.

Look what just showed
up in my mailbox.

This is fantastic.

Fantastic and a little confusing.

Why did you apply to Lancer?

I filled out an application last year

in a moment of vocational crisis.

Why is this the first
time I'm hearing of it?

I got wait-listed
the first time.

I rolled the application
over this year and...

I don't know. I figured
I'd wait to see how I did

before I started advertising it.

- What?
- It's not every day

I get to see you
insecure about something.

I mean, give me a moment to enjoy it.

- You done?
- Not yet, no.

Ok.

Ok, now I'm done.

Mm. I'm really proud of you.

So what's your major gonna be?

Film. Assuming I
get into the program.

I thought you said you were in.

Well, I'm into the university.

The Film school has
an entirely separate

application process.

I gotta do an interview,
write a ton of essays,

and make a short film.

Wow.

But you know, if I don't get in,

I got my fallback all worked out.

I'll just become a Hellcat.

- You'll become a what?
- Yeah, I figure I'll...

I'll be a base.

I'll be your base.

I can count on you to
get me on the squad.

I don't know if I could...

Wink-wink. You pull
a few strings and...

I can't, like...

I'm joking.

Right. Yeah, I totally knew.

You didn't.

No, I didn't.

But please don't joke
about cheerleading.

It gives me a nervous stomach.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Wait, keep playing, please.

I was just trying...

No, no, Travis,
please. Keep playing.

I...

I had no idea my dad wrote songs.

Your mom was nice enough
to let me stay here.

I don't want to get
in the middle of this.

Where did you get this?

From your mom.

I had no idea you didn't know

or I wouldn't have brought it up.

Just...Just tell me
what you know. Please.

Uh...Last night your
mom and I had some wine.

We got to talking about
old times and old music

and she went into the bedroom,

she come out with that
and asked me to play it.

That's all I know.

I take it you guys
don't talk about him.

No. No. No. Ha.

And that's classic Wanda.

I spend my life taking care of her

and I get nothing.

Then you come in here, you
fix the garbage disposal,

and suddenly you're in
the inner circle. Huh!

How is that fair, Travis?

How is that fair? Huh?

I think you have to
talk to her about it.

Ah. Insightful.

Yeah, I can see why
she opened up to you.

Wait. Why are we stopping?

Quick detour. Two minutes.

I swear, if you make me late

for one more hair appointment...

Two minutes.

Dan can't afford nice film books,

so I want to give him all of these

to help him study.

Who uses books?

Anything he needs to
know is online. Come on.

Yeah, until technology fails us,

and then you'll be
begging me on your knees

for a glimpse of my
Coffee Table book.

Your two minutes are up, by the way.

Hey! I wasn't expecting to
see you till the weekend.

I've got an ultrasound to show you.

Uh-uh, Charlotte.

Now slowing your sister down.

I saw the heartbeat and everything.

Doesn't it look like he's smiling?

I think that's his bum.

- Mm. Really?
- Yeah.

I think you're right.

Are... are you having
a party downstairs?

Oh. No, that's my other news.

We got into Nationals.

How? You were
eliminated at Sectionals.

Burlington got busted for
illegal diet supplements,

so we're taking their spot.

Congratulations.

I'm not flying but
I'm still captain, so

some of the girls are downstairs
working out a routine.

Oh, my God.

What?

That song. It's cool,
right? It's a local band.

Werewolf vs. Unicorn.
I know.

Since when are you hip to music?

I hope you're not planning on
using this song for your routine.

- What do you care?
- Because it's the Hellcats' song.

Guys, this is bad.

We can't use the same
song, not in Nationals.

We have an agreement with the band.

- So do we.
- Prove it!

I've got nothing to prove to you.

Prove you didn't steal it.

Did you hear that? She
just called us thieves.

I hear outrage, nasty
Kathy, but no denial.

Stop calling me that.

Nasty Kathy.

Keep running your
mouth, Alice. I dare you.

- Or what, piglet?
- Oh, don't test me.

- Oh, nasty, nasty Kathy.
- Everyone calm down.

You out of all people have no right

to tell me what to do.

Neither team can afford to lose focus.

Battling with each other
is a waste of resources.

And why is that? Because
our pyramids are sloppy

and our tumblers are slow?

Oh, no. That's you.

You want to talk sloppy stunt work?

Shall we roll video
of one Charlotte Monroe

falling on her head at qualifiers?

Oh, come on.

Trash talk
all you want, Kathy,

but the fact is you have

less lead time than your competitors,

and you're already down a flyer.

And why are we down a flyer?

Because your sister
got pregnant by your ex.

Kathy!

I didn't mean that.

Char?

I say stupid things all the time.

Char!

We should get sandwiches, I think.

Come on, nasty Kathy.
I'm sure we can find

some live spiders for you to eat.

It was an accident.

So what...You
tripped and stumbled

onto my ex-boyfriend's penis?

Don't be gross.

No wonder you didn't tell
me who the father was.

And everyone else knew but me.

I mean, what's that about?

I was planning on telling you,

and nasty Kathy ruined everything.

Well, you should've told me first.

Before anyone.

I'm sorry.

Of all the guys in
the world, why Noah?

Don't say it like
that. "Why Noah?"

Just because he wasn't
good enough for you.

I've liked him since the sixth grade,

but he was always into you.

I was just the stupid, little sister.

Until he bought you
at that date auction

and you broke his heart.

He came on to me when
I was seeing someone.

Whatever. You gave up
any claim you had to him.

And he was sad, so I made my move.

So you gave him rebound sex?

You Lancer people have
a little judgmental term

for everything, don't you?

I'm sorry. I'm just
trying really hard

to wrap my brain around this.

He showed up at my window.

We stayed up till six

talking about our lives, our futures.

So this was that same night?

For the first time, he
was paying attention to me.

We fell in love.

And we're getting married.

When?

Soon.

We're looking for
apartments as soon as

Midterms are over.

The Cyclones said they'll help me

decorate the nursery,

and Sandy's sister
has this adorable crib

with adorable matching furniture.

Does mom know?

She thinks it's the
best thing for the baby.

And me.

And you agree?

Charlotte, do you agree?

Of course I do.

I love Noah. And he loves me.

You won't
believe the day I had.

The cherry was the phone call I got

from the Mem-Chris cheer coach.

Apparently, the girls are using

the same piece of music,

and now there's blood on the walls.

They got in a fight
over a song, really.

Don't get me started.
Alice said she's gonna go

talk to the band tonight to, I quote,

"flash them a little cleavage

"and straighten the
whole thing out."

That always worked for me, so...

Yeah, well, I'll be sure and tell

the new athletic director that.

That's assuming we even hire one.

The search committee's been looking.

No one's taking the bait.

Who'd want to be
the poor S.O.B.

Who has to clean up
Bill Marsh's mess?

You two look like you
could use a refill.

Thanks, Wanda.

On the house.

I am so sorry to hear
about you and Derrick.

How heartbreaking.

Yeah. It's... yes.
Thanks.

Would've been a lovely wedding.

They were talking to me
about doing the event.

Yeah, it's a shame that we
won't be working together.

Unless, of course,
there's another wedding

coming down the pike
sometime soon.

No. That won't be
happening anytime soon.

Who knows? I mean, ain't
none of getting any younger.

Oh, coach, I put a little
water in that whiskey.

You know, just in case you're asked

to suit up for the big game later on.

Very thoughtful.

We're never coming here again.

Ha ha ha! Relax.

It's just Wanda being Wanda.

Don't.

Ok.

I'm sorry. I don't
want to be that woman.

Which woman is that, exactly?

The heartbreaker.
The bitch. The slut.

Well, if they're so
determined to judge,

I say let them.

That's easy for you to say.

- Why?
- Because you're a guy.

Come on. Yeah, even in this

supposedly enlightened age,

there's a double standard.

Don't you find something
new would come between us?

What?

My mom.

She used to always say we...

We all carry around
our own hell with us,

like a turtle carries a shell.

Now, I can't speak for you,

but I've wasted a lot of years

and I've delayed a lot of happiness,

and I'm not gonna do it anymore.

Red...

Drop the shell.

I'm sorry. I have to go.

Hey.

Where's Travis?

Brought home some dead food orders.

I got a couple turkey burgers

and a greek salad that
looks pretty promising.

Travis wanted to give
us some breathing room.

So you and I can have
a little heart-to-heart.

Sounds serious.

Why does Travis know things
about dad that I don't know?

And more importantly,
why don't I know

dad wrote music?

Oh. I told you
he was a musician.

I know he played. I never
knew he actually wrote songs.

You think I wouldn't be
interested? Music is my thing.

Music is one of your things.

You're very versatile.

Now can we please
change the subject?

Talking about your
father... rest his soul...

Is very painful.

Uh-uh. No. No.

If you can talk about dad to Travis,

you can talk to me, too.

Well, talking to Travis is not like

talking to a real person.

What?

Talking to Travis is
like talking to myself.

It's like when people
come into the bar

and blub on and on about their stuff.

I do not judge because I do not care.

It's cheaper than therapy for them.

You think I'm gonna judge you?

Marti, everything
I have done in my life

has been for your benefit.

So if I don't walk to
talk about a subject,

you can assume there's a good reason.

He's not a subject.
He's my father.

Rex was a bad guy, ok?

And the only decent thing

that he has ever done in his life

is supply half of your DNA.

So the less you know...

The less I'll get hurt.

You realize you say
the same damn thing

every single time I ask about dad?

I didn't realize that
I was being judged

for originality.

It was a difficult time in my life.

I carry a lot of hurt.

Did you ever consider
where I fit into this story?

No, I don't even know what
story we are talking about.

I will not be yelled
at in my own home.

I will not be treated like a dishrag.

Not the persecution face.
I'm not falling for it.

- I'm going to a movie.
- Oh, yeah?

Give you a chance to calm down

from your hysteria.

Eat what you want.
The food is yours.

I don't see the band here yet, so

I'm gonna go to the bathroom.

Order me my usual?

Sure.

Excuse me. Hello. Excuse me.

Barkeep, two whiskey
and sodas, please.

What you drinking?

Orange juice.

And an orange juice for the lady,

my fine sir.

Thanks.

Wait a second.
You look kinda familiar.

Do we know each other?

Uh, do you go to All Saints Church
on Vance Avenue?

All Saints. No.

Not a lot of people
there that look like me.

Bald, right?

That is exactly
what I meant. Yes.

Anyway, I'm bad with faces.

Huh.

So you like these guys?

Werewolf vs. Unicorn?

Yeah. They're pretty cool.

I saw them open
last year for Chromeo.

At the New Daisy?

Yeah. Were you there?

Bought the bumper sticker.

Are you sure these are the
guys that opened for them?

Like I said...
bad with faces, but yeah.

Because I think I'd
recognize that name.

The band's been through a
bunch of different names.

Yet they still ended up with the name

Werewolf vs. Unicorn.

Well, the name they had before this

was "Salute the Fat Man".

- Oh, dear.
- And before that,

they were "Sticker Shock",

and for an unfortunate two weeks,

they were known as "Beefeater".

Ugh. That...Uh-uh.
No, that...

So here's to Unicorn
and... Werewolf.

Werewolf versus...
Unicorn.

All right.

Clink.

Mm.

At least they're danceable.

Yeah, and apparently they're good for

cheerleading routines, too.

You're into cheerleading?

I am one. I'm Lewis,
by the way.

Oh, no. What?

You're a Hellcat and
I'm officially an idiot.

Nasty Kathy.

I didn't realize
it was groupie night.

I would've left my bra at home.

- You two know each other?
- Mm-hmm.

And you're here to lobby
the band, aren't you?

Behind our backs.

Yup. But it's gonna
be much more fun

with you here, watching helplessly

as I take our song away from you.

Ok, ladies.

Oh, she's no lady.

Fraternizing with the enemy?

I don't believe in enemies.

- I am a lover of humanity.
- Whatever.

I never met a man I didn't like.

No longer listening.

Hug that little redhead.
I know you want to.

Excuse me. Simon. Hi.

You remember me?

Uh...

You gave my cheer team
permission to use your song

at our national competition.

Oh. Ha. Right.

Yeah.

And you gave me permission to use it.

Yeah, because I didn't know that Simon

had already given the
song to somebody else.

We're on opposing teams.
You can't give us both

permission to use the song.

Can't you share?

- It doesn't work like that.
- We don't share.

We're letting you use our song.

We're not charging you anything.

I don't see where the
attitude is justified.

This is a nationally
televised competition.

It is fantastic
exposure for your band.

Don't pretend it isn't

Ok, fine, but we don't
care about your politics.

Y'all figure it out for
yourselves. Flip a coin.

We could do that.

No. Simon...

You gave me permission,

permission which I
consider to be exclusive.

I have it in writing.

On a bar napkin.

I bought you 8 beers.
I want my money's worth.

Fine.

Here's where we rehearse.

We'll be there around 11:30.

When we're done our set tonight,
your squad and her squad,

you're gonna show up in your hot,
little cheerleader outfits

and you're gonna
put on a show for us.

Underwear optional.

Uh, we're not putting
on a show for you guys.

And I would never be able to assemble

my entire squad on two hours' notice.

Then you don't get the song.

Two hours? I can
make that happen.

- Ok, fine. Yeah.
- We'll be there, too.

Pleasure doing business.

- Come on, Simon.
- Underwear is optional.

Seriously.

Hey, Alice.

Good luck tracking down your squad.

Mine are all at the
same youth group meeting.

How'd it go?

We have to call everyone.

We need them in uniform
and ready to cheer.

I was messed up after that
night in the movie theater.

I needed someone to talk to,

and nobody knows you like Charlotte.

So you went to talk
to my sister about me,

and slept with her.

When you lay it out like
that, it sounds sketchy.

Gee, Noah, you think?

I'm not proud of what I did.

I strayed from my path, but
I deserve a little credit

for trying to do the right thing now.

Do you love her?

I offered to marry her.

You didn't answer the question.

I love you.

Oh, Noah, don't do this.

Everything I said in that
movie theater was true.

We can make it work between us.

I know we can. Stop.

I'm sorry.

I know my timing is really bad,

but I just feel like this
could be my last chance

to tell you how I feel.

I've never stopped loving you,

and I never will.

In 3 months, you will
have a wife and a baby.

I will be your
sister-in-law.

It doesn't have to be like that.

Noah, nothing will ever
happen with you and me.

Ok? That night in
the movie theater,

I obviously gave you false hope.

I'm sorry for that.

But the idea of us
running off together,

especially in light
of all this, well...

That's just an immature fantasy.

You're acting like a child.

I see.

Well, then all you have
to do is say the word.

The word? What word?

Tell me you want me to
marry Charlotte and I will.

Oh, my gosh.

Wow.

You got yourself into this situation.

You and Charlotte.

So whatever you decide to do about it

is your responsibility.

And trying to make
it my responsibility,

I'm sorry, Noah, but that's
a really crappy thing to do.

Savannah...

Good-bye, Noah.

I can't believe you
finally got into Lancer.

Hmm. Thanks for the
vote of confidence.

You know what I
mean. It's exciting.

You have any idea what the
film project's gonna be?

The assignment is to make a trailer.

I need a concept that's bold.

You know, something that
shows I can move a camera.

But I don't have any
money to work with.

Sounds like suspense or horror.

That's what I was thinking.

Best ones are done on the cheap.

You want to be in it?

Only if you promise me a
blood-soaked, gory death.

What are best friends for?

I want to see my own intestines.

Lower? Upper?

Lower. I've been
doing some sculpting

on my lower GI tract.

I want to show it off.

Vanity, thy name is woman.

Consider it done.

Who is that...
Your drug dealer?

Mm. Alice. Whatever
she wants can wait.

So dad's song...

How was it?

It was fine.

The sheet music displayed
impeccable penmanship,

which apparently I didn't inherit.

Well, God rarely
gives with both hands.

I've known you a long
time. You know that?

Obviously.

When you decide to
accomplish something, M,

you go after it.

Guns blazing.

You do.

If you wanted to know
about your dad, I mean,

Wanda's never been
capable of stopping you.

Your point?

And if this means so much to you,

why didn't you push harder?

That's a good question.

I was in eighth grade, I think.

And I asked why they split up.

She didn't want to talk about it,

but I kept pushing.

No matter what she said,
I wouldn't let it go.

She ends up in tears,
the bottle comes out,

she starts calling herself
a bad mom, blah blah blah.

Hitting herself in the face.

Finally, I carried her off to bed,

which is where she ended up staying

for the next week.

I had to call her work and make up

some B.S. Story about the flu.

At the end of the day, it just wasn't

worth the hassle, you know?

Yeah, I guess not.

She's known Travis
for two and a half minutes

and she's spilling her guts to him.

That hurts.

It's not Alice, is it?

It's Savannah.

She's looking for you, actually.

Says it's an emergency.

Is Charlotte here yet?

Not yet, but thank God you guys are.

Are you ready? Yeah.

You ladies wearing underwear?

You guys wearing a dunce cap?

You should be. You're
underdressed without it.

Touche.

That dude's stoned.

Why are we cheering
for these creeps again?

We have to.
Or we lose the song.

Li'l Kim's looking pretty
attractive right about now.

1, 2.

Great job, Hellcats. Yeah!

So what then?
Do we have a verdict?

Yeah. Sexy girls
with the bellies.

Y'all get the song.

Maybe it's just me, but

I think you guys
are a rare collection

of rude jackasses.

Lighting up. Getting drunk.

Whatever you guys have been doing.

It's incredibly disrespectful,

and I believe I speak for my squad

when I say you guys can just take

that old amateur-ass
song of yours

and shove it up whatever hole

you happen to have close at hand.

Do I speak for my squad?

Yeah.

Your loss.

Cyclones, y'all get the song.

Actually, Lewis speaks
for us, too.

When we beat the Hellcats,
it'll be fair and square...

Not because they
pissed off a pack of

pig-ignorant townies.

You may want to rephrase
that, little girl.

Intoxicated farm animals?

That work for y'all?

Wipe it up.

Wipe it up.

Bitch.

And proud of it.

Color me impressed.

Thanks.

So I guess I'll see you at Nationals?

Yeah. See you at Nationals.

What's this?

My number.

In case you ever want to
catch a show or something.

Bye.

Bye.

Ow. Get off me, you crazy...

What is your problem?

Stop! Let go of me!

Hey, hey. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa. What's going on here?

She is telling horrible
lies about my fiance.

Whoa, scrapper. Hey.

Let go. I'm leaving.

I can't even look at you.

You're not getting
anywhere near my baby.

I won't let you.

Great. Now I have
the freaking hiccups.

Ok, under
the circumstances...

I'm going.

- Char...
- Don't talk to me.

I guess you told her about Noah?

What was I supposed to do?

Let her marry him and make the
biggest mistake of her life?

Those two wouldn't be able
to keep cactuses alive.

It's cacti.

I come with open palms
bearing baked goods.

You can stay.

Must be my lucky day.

Listen. About yesterday.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push.

I deserved to be
pushed. You were right.

I shouldn't worry
about people gossiping,

and I'm not.

Not really.

What are you worried about?

I'm worried about the shame.

Yeah, I looked Derrick in the eyes

telling him he wasn't the one.

I hurt him. I hurt him so much

and I just felt evil.

Telling the truth is not evil.

You are not evil.

Well, I'm hardly admirable.

Red... have you ever wondered

what would've happened
if we never met?

- What do you mean?
- Do you think you'd

still be with Emily?

No. Not a chance.

Why not?

It wasn't... it wasn't right.

It never was right.

You didn't love her?

Sure. I loved her.

There just wasn't a cosmic pull.

You know, that
crazy-ass feeling

that makes you want to
cry at stupid love songs

and run around hotel
lobbies butt naked.

Oh, my gosh. I forgot
about that night.

We never did figure out
who called security on us.

No. Had to be front desk.

No, no way. He wouldn't
have ratted on us.

It was that woman with the chihuahua.

Oh, my gosh, yeah.
The one who looked like...

Barbara bush.

What about you?

If we'd never met, would you be

planning your wedding
with Derrick right now?

Maybe. But it would've
been a mistake.

He was wonderful,
he was good to me,

but there was some...

No cosmic pull.

No cosmic pull.

Vanessa?

Practice doesn't start till three.

I have some new music
choices I want you to hear.

Approved.
Come back in an hour.

Savannah?

Mom.

Is everything ok?

I suppose that is a matter of opinion.

You've probably heard by now that

Charlotte broke off the engagement.

No, I hadn't heard.

Mom, I'm sorry.

I didn't want to tell her,
but after what Noah said...

Don't beat yourself up.

It's for the best.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

And I want to thank you, by the way.

For what?

For having the courage
to tell Charlotte

what I couldn't.

I think that marriage was doomed.

It would've been two
children playing house

with a real live baby
and it most certainly

would've ended in tears.

Why are you looking
at me like that?

I thought you were gonna be mad.

I'm too tired to be mad.

You know, when you
were both little girls,

I used to think it would
get easier as you got older.

You'd be adults, you
wouldn't be dependent

on me and your dad for everything,

and I would actually get to relax.

But you know what they don't tell you?

What?

It never gets any
easier, being a mother.

I'm still just as invested.

I still worry.

Only now I don't get to control

the decisions you make like I used to.

Give me a 9-year-old over
a 19-year-old, hands down.

It's gonna be ok, mom.

I know.

So what's Charlotte gonna do now?

She's gonna stay with us.

I'm here for anything.

I know you are, and oh, boy,

am I ever gonna need you.

You are my strong one.

What's going on in here?

This is my dad's stuff, right?

Marti, I told you,

I don't want to talk about this.

Who's talking?

You got something to say?

No, ma'am.

Going back to prison.
It's safer there.

Let's eat.
