Huge (2010): Season 1, Episode 1 - Hello, I Must Be Going - full transcript

Willamina, aka Will, reluctantly begins her journey at weight loss camp, making quite an impression on her fellow campers at the "before" photo shoot, and later stirring up trouble by selling her stash of food to the other campers. What happens when Dr. Rand, the head of Camp Victory, finds out about Will's undercover dealings? Amber who, unlike Will, is excited about the possibilities that Camp Victory offers her, soon learns that things will be very different for her when she finds herself a part of the "popular" group - which is completely new territory for her. When she attracts the attention of Ian, one of her fellow campers - much to the dismay of Will -- it plants the seed for a romantic rivalry between the two girls.

- Yeah, over there...
- Smile. Great!

Can we, like, take a moment and
just ponder how sick this is?

Just get a bunch of fat kids,

stick 'em in bathing suits
and add cameras.

Um, excuse me...

They don't let you do
the picture with clothes on.

Oh, my God. I never would
have guessed that. Thank you.

You know, this could be
my summer to gain weight.

I feel like, inside me,
there's an even fatter person

just trying to get out.

It's not.



Can I say something?

It's not that bad here.
This is my second time.

I lost 26 and a half pounds.
Then I gained some of it back.

Basically, all of it.
But you meet people.

People hook up.

I mean, not everyone, but...

See, everyone's overweight.

So the playing field is...
more like, there is one.

That's somewhat cool.

OK...

...I guess it's not that
different from the real world.

What is she even doing here?

Hi, we hate you.

- Just kidding.
- Oh, OK.



Cute suit.

I tried that one
but it gave me back rolls.

Oh, my God, I know.

Hey, um...

Are you kidding?
You're so thin.

You're totally
the thinnest girl here.

That can't be true.
Look at me.

- Look at me!
- Look at me!

Do we have to take
our shoes off?

I think it's, like, optional.

Hi. It's good
to see you again.

Becca.
I gained the weight back.

Well, good for you
for coming back.

- And welcome... Willamina.
- I prefer Will.

Well, every camper must
be in their bathing suit

for the "before" picture, Will.

This is the start of
a very important journey.

And we ask that you begin

by taking an honest look
at yourself.

That sounds so great, but...
I lost my bathing suit.

That's no problem.
You can use the community suit.

[girl] Community suit...

Oh! This is weird.

I found my suit.
It was on my body!

Good.

Well...?

[imitates burlesque music]

Whoo!

- Whoo!
- [laughter]

- Whoo!
- [girl hooting]

[Willamina grunts]

- Whoo!
- [hooting continues]

- [whistling]
- [laughter]

[grunting]

- [continues imitating music]
- [laughter, cheering]

Whoo! Whoo!

[boy] Nice!

[cheering, applause]

Yeah!

- [boy] Yeah, that's it!
- [boy 2 chuckles] Yeah.

[boy 3] Nice.

I like that! [chuckles]

Well, who have we here?
I'm Dr. Rand.

[up-tempo music plays]

- [boy] Oh, man!
- [girl] I can't believe it!

- [boy 2] Whatever!
- [boy 3] She's crazy!

- Oh, my God. Why did I just do that?
- [boy 3] How embarrassing.

[giggles] OK!

Hi, I'm Poppy!

Welcome to the first day
of the rest of your lives!

So, find the bunk
with your name on it.

[squeals]

- [girl] This one OK?
- [girl 2] Yeah, all right.

[girl] Watch out.

You want the top?

You can have it.

[Poppy] OK... OK!

I'm gonna come around
and look through your bags.

If you have anything
that's not allowed,

just give it to me now,
no questions asked.

That means any kind
of food, even gum.

- What if it's sugar free?
- Is it gum?

Great! All right.

Everyone gets a journal.

It's so we can express
our feelings.

Don't have 'em.

Oh! This also includes:

cigarettes, breath mints,
lozenges,

certain forms of lip gloss...

Oh...

- What's that?
- Toothpick?

Is it flavored?

It's wood. Wood flavored?

OK, I guess it's all right then.
[laughs]

I also need you to relinquish

any phones, MP3 players,
video games, OK?

That's cool, Caitlin.

I always have it with me,

so it's the first thing
I see when I wake up.

[Poppy] Swish!

Can I borrow some tape?

[Poppy] Willamina!

Thanks.

These are her only friends.

They're thin-spiration.

What's this?

Cough drops count as lozenges.

Do you have a cough?
You can totally go to the nurse.

I'm fine.

Congrats, Willamina!
You're clean!

[girls chattering, laughing]

- I don't want to run.
- Come on.

- You have to try.
- [whistle sounds]

I'm Shay!
Your worst nightmare!

- [cheering]
- She lives to make people cry.

I love her.

You'll be packing in three hours
of exercise every day, minimum!

Team sports,
Tae-Bo, hiking, yoga,

hot yoga, waterskiing.

Be warned: I got me
a new assistant coach,

and he is tough as nails.

Give it up for George!

I can't do any more!

There is no "I can't."
Do you hear me?

Now get up off that rock
and give me 20 jumping jacks!

[indistinct chattering]

Good evening, campers!

Allow me to introduce to you

the newest member
of our Camp Victory family.

Chef Joe Salzniak!

[light applause]

No seconds.

[boy] Great.
Nice to meet you, too.

[laughter]

[boy] Who wants seconds
of this stuff anyway?

High-five. [laughs]

You're like the slowest eater
I've ever seen.

I chew every bite 30 times.

That's hardcore.

I've been dieting
since I was ten.

It's probably the thing
I'm best at.

- I might even skip my dessert.
- I'll take it.

You really think
that's a good idea?

Absolutely.

If I'm gonna gain weight here,
I need to fully commit.

It's your life.

[sighs]

[indistinct chattering]

Hey. Can I ask you
a personal question?

Are you holding?

Relax.

I'm not gonna bust you.
I want to buy some.

♪ Chase it down, turn around ♪

Are you trying
to get kicked out?

My parents said if
I get in trouble here

they'd send me
to one of those boot camps

you see on Jerry Springer.

So, trust me, I do not
intend on getting kicked out.

Nor do I intend
on losing weight.

I said "nor."
That's how serious I am.

[honking]

[panting]

[boy] You know how, like,
you can look in the mirror

in the morning, and say, like,
"OK. I look OK."

Just so you can, like,
get through the day?

Like in junior high,

I knew I was big.

But there was this kid,
Kyle Curtis.

And he was like
the fat kid at our school.

And I, like, clung to that.

Like, I'd look at him and I'd
think, "At least I'm not him."

Till one day after PE, we were
at the sinks at the same time.

I could see us both
in the mirror.

And I was as fat as him.
Maybe fatter.

Kind of shocked me.

Ian, thank you for sharing.

OK, who haven't we heard from?

Will?

Sorry... I'm down with my fat.
Me and my fat are like BFF.

[chuckling]

Everyone wants us
to hate our bodies.

Well, I refuse to.

No one here wants
you to hate yourself.

Our focus is on health.

Oh, right, health. You want to
tell me she's here for her health?

- Don't say what I'm here for!
- [Dr. Rand] OK, girls?

This is about listening.

No one's mentioned
what it's like

to be without
your favorite foods.

[scoffs]

[Dr. Rand] Caitlin?

It feels really good.

[laughter, indistinct chatter]

[guffaws]

I hate that sharing circle.

- I'm just gonna make stuff up.
- No, you should be honest.

People are really
supportive here.

At home, I have to pretend
I don't even care about food.

But my mom still locks the
cookies in the trunk of her car.

Like I'm a criminal
or something.

So next time we share,
you have to say

how you're in love with George.

- Hi, George! My name's Sandra!
- Shut up!

[geese hooking]

[man yelling indistinctly]

[acoustic guitar playing]

[humming]

- [Ian] Hey.
- Sorry, I...

Oh, no worries.

[Willamina] Pixies?

I saw them play in London last
year, the reunion tour.

What? Oh, I hate you.

I don't hate you. Um...

- That must have been...
- It was.

I got up front by pretending

I was with this guy
in a wheelchair.

That's awesome. [chuckles]

We were, like, rocking out
to Holiday Song.

Oh. r so long,
I thought it was:

"Here I am, with my ham."

- It's "with my hand."
- [Ian] Yeah, I know.

[chuckles]

So you've been to London?

I can't believe I was
scared to talk to you.

What?

No, I just thought you
were too cool, or whatever.

Why would you ever think that?

Well, you did that dance thing.

And I was like...

Hey, do you know that girl?

Yeah. Sort of. Why?

Just wondering.

Dr. Rand wants
to see you in her office. Now.

I've been in touch
with your parents, Will.

Actually, I've been
thinking about it,

and I prefer Willamina.

Anyone caught selling food
cannot remain at this camp...

...Willamina.

So I had to be sure
that your parents

would be able to make
other arrangements for you...

...should that become necessary.

Do we understand each other?

Yes, ma'am.

Actually, I prefer Dr. Rand.

And you're going
to owe me five dollars

in three, two, one, boom!

[grunting]

Where's my money?

Just ask!

[boy] Boom, right there.

- There it is.
- First down.

Hey, my friend is really
into this show Solaris X-38.

It's on in like three minutes.

- [boy] Not really.
- [Caitlin] There's this thing...

- ...that we seriously need to watch.
- It's serious.

Thank you.

[boy] Come here.

Come on,
best seat in the house!

Amber ratted me out to Rand.

Here.

- Thanks.
- The guys are super hot this year.

You don't understand.

Sitting on a guy's lap
is not something I do. Ever.

Remember last summer
when you sat on Mike Duffy's lap

- at movie night?
- He was gay. It didn't count.

And he was flirting, right?

I mean, that was flirting,
right?

Definitely.

So... was I OK?

Did I seem like
a normal person?

Sort of.

- Should I have flirted more?
- You were great!

Just... don't get tied
down the first week.

Remember, this isn't
like the real world.

You can seriously
have any guy here.

Oh, my God.
This is so huge.

I'm gonna need that back.

Caitlin, magazine?
Give, please.

- Do I look any thinner to you guys?
- I can't tell.

OK... "What Your Eye Makeup
Says About You."

"When you glam up for a night
out, do you reach for:

A: A thick eye crayon
in bad-girl black..."

Yes.

"B: A dewy shimmer,
hold the mascara or..."

Nah!

"C: Long false lashes,
the spikier the better!"

[Caitlin] Definitely "C."

OK.

So, Rand thinks
I'm selling food.

Well, aren't you?

Well, if someone has
a problem with that,

they should take it up with me.

You think I care what you do?
I don't.

None of us do. So...

...get over yourself.

I just feel like nothing's
happening.

Miley Cyrus walks her own dog.
That's...

She's so down to earth.

Look what I stole!
Amber's shorts.

But, wait...

This is too mean.

another friend ♪

♪ Is that what you want? ♪

OK, here we go...

- ♪ Looking for a song ♪
- How many?

I'll take the box.

So does your BFF Amber know that
you partake in the black market?

Yeah. She does.
But she's a good person.

She wouldn't snitch.

Even on you.

♪ You've been gone
far too long ♪

[boy] You got it!

[applause, cheering]

OK, guys, I'll be timing you.

[whistle sounds]

I'm having some serious
muffin top issues right now.

Please don't mention muffins.

- OK! On your mark, get set...
go! - [whistle sounds]

I can't be gaining.
That's not possible, right?

Maybe it's a metabolism thing.

'Cause you suddenly start
burning so much more calories,

maybe your metabolism,
like, got confused.

Is that a real thing?

I don't know.
I'm not a scientist.

[whistle sounds]

- [George] Come on, ladies!
- [whistles sounds]

[George] Yeah, get on top!
There you go!

Use your balance,
use your balance.

- [cheering] - Get the
rope, get the rope.

Don't worry. I've got you.
Here we go.

Wait a second!

- There you go.
- [grunts] Oh, God.

There you go.
One step at a time.

[stammers] Wait...

- [all gasp]
- Wait a minute! Let me down!

- [George] Lower your foot.
- No! No, let go!

- [George] Just lower your foot!
- [Amber] Let go!

- Let go!
- [George] My God, are you OK?

- [Amber] I'm fine!
- [laughter]

[George] Uh...
OK, you guys, just...

...head back
to your cabins, OK?

Sandra!

Wait! Sandra,
I'm so sorry.

Here, maybe...

...tie it around your waist.

Thanks.

Listen, don't be embarrassed,
all right?

Every person here has
had embarrassing stuff happen.

If I told you some of the stuff
that's happened to me...

Like what?

Uh. OK, uh...

Well, I'm deaf in one ear.

- Oh.
- Yeah, so there's stuff I miss.

Like, senior year,
I was at this party,

and this girl kept turning
around and looking at me.

And...

And finally she said,
"Do you wanna make out?"

And I was like,
"I mean... sure!"

And she gave me this weird look.

And it turned out she was
saying, "You're on my coat."

- Wow.
- Yeah.

So... you're not the only one.

Just remember, you're
a really cool girl, Sandra.

Thanks.

- I better...
- Yeah.

Shay's gonna freak
when she finds out

I sent those guys home early.

I'll see you later.

[sighs]

- [Poppy] I'm really sorry.
- [girl] Just let it out.

What is your problem?

[Chloe] You don't need Dr. Rand
to tell you what to say!

- No, you're not sorry!
- I'm sorry.

- What's going on?
- Caitlin's gone.

What?

I can't tell you guys details
yet. Dr. Rand's coming by...

Wait, is she OK?
What happened?

We have a right to know!

I found out
she's been throwing up.

I... had to go to Dr. Rand.

[Amber] They kicked her out?

I know this is upsetting,
and...

...but... let's wait
for Dr. Rand.

Just stay here, OK?
I'll get her.

I thought this place
was about helping us.

Couldn't they have given
her counseling or something?

They can't do that here.
It's too serious.

So... who told Poppy?

- Why are you looking at me?
- Wait, did everyone know she was...?

I didn't.

I thought, maybe.

I mean, the way her face
was always so puffy?

And brushing her teeth
every minute?

We were in the same
cabin last year.

You kind of couldn't not know.

So did you tell on her?

No, but I'm glad someone did.

Why? So she gets kicked out?

[Will] Cause it's
the right thing.

Didn't you ever think
you should say something?

- You're supposed to be her friends.
- I was being a friend.

You don't know anything.

Home is the last place
she should be.

You're the one who gave her
all that crap to eat.

What did you think
was gonna happen?

And you're the one who
made her stare at this crap!

Hey!

- [Willamina] Get off!
- Stop!

- [Amber] Stop it!
- [girl] Get her off of her!

- [Willamina] Get off of me!
- Oh, no.

What's going on here?

[Dr. Rand] What happened?

[panting]

I'm busting out of here.
Tonight.

[Ian] Will?

Hey. Just returning your mix.

- You can keep it for longer.
- Well, I'm leaving tonight, so...

- What? - Yeah.
I can't deal with this place.

I'm going to my uncle's.

Well...

- I'm on Facebook, so...
- Yeah. We'll talk.

Here, keep it.

Thanks. That's...

Thanks. I gotta go.

And that is why warming up
is so important.

Thanks, Piz.

I cannot stress this enough.

This is to avoid
pulling any muscles,

getting hurt, getting cramps,

or injuring yourself.

- OK...
- What's wrong?

Chafing. This is an issue
which affects a lot of you.

You want to make sure
to put baby powder

on the affected areas...

[panting]

[girls chattering indistinctly]

Becca?

Where's Will?

She ran away.
And it's partly my fault.

I told Rand about her stash.

I didn't want to get her
in trouble. I just...

I just couldn't take having
that stuff around anymore.

Look, she hated it here.

It's better that she's gone.

I'm a horrible friend.

No.

I am.

I told on Caitlin.

I didn't think that they could
kick her out for that.

I'm so stupid.

You can't tell anyone.

Neither can you.

- [door opens]
- [bell rings]

[indistinct chattering]

I'm gonna start with some fries
and a chocolate shake.

OK.

[bell dings]

That Beyoncé...
she's everywhere.

The first week's the hardest.

Well, they're all hard.

But you can come to me.

If you have any concerns or...

...or for any reason.

You don't need a reason.

Because...

...I really want this to work.

You know?

Dad?

I heard ya.

Hey, sweetie!
I got your fries here!

You want them or not?

She does.

So... what happens now?

I'll be in the truck.

- [door opens]
- [bell rings]

Funny...

Last train's come and gone.

There's no bus service
on Sundays.

So you were probably
planning on hitchhiking.

Which means you'd rather
risk your life than change it.

Not so much funny as sad,
if I may say.

Don't let your fries get cold.

- I don't want them.
- Go ahead.

You're not a camper anymore.

I'm not eating them
in front of you, OK?

And no, I don't want to change.
Why should I?

Just cause my parents are
ashamed of how I look?

- Listen to me, Willamina...
- Will.

I know why you're running away.
I know you're scared.

I'm not scared.

I just think everything
you stand for is crap.

No offense.

Check.

[Dr. Rand]
She's had a very long day.

I'm sure she'll want to
talk to you in the morning.

- [chattering]
- [Dr. Rand] Mm-hmm.

Absolutely.

Goodnight.

I remember the day
I carved this.

I wanted to go home so badly.

Your parents think it's best
if you stay with your uncle,

rather than place you
in a different camp.

They said we can call him now.

You know the number?

I wanna stay.

It was messed up
for me to sell food. But...

...I vow I will
never do it again.

Ever.

I said "vow."

So, can I... stay?

[Willamina sighs]

[Poppy] Will, yay!

Lights out in 15.

So, listen. She drags me
back here in this gross truck.

And she refuses
to call my uncle!

[muffled]
I'm so glad you're back.

Wow, Amber...
Your face really looks thinner.

- Really?
- [Chloe] Totally.

How about me?
Do I look any fatter?

These are never
gonna look right again.

Sorry.
I mean, that sucks.

Whatever.

George gave me his hoodie.

Got any more of those?

I've only been off sugar for about 3 hours

and I already feel like
defacing private property.

Tell me it gets easier.

Great.

Lights out, ladies.

***

It's not that it gets easier....

but...

you start wanting it.

I want it.

I'm so damn hungry
that toothpick made it worse.

Shut up!

I should have had that shake
when I had the chance.

I did double chocolate shake
right there in front of me.

Give me like extra large,

or double scoops of *** chocolate.

***

The icecream itself was like...

- Double.
- Ok, that's enough.

- What's the chocolate syrup?
- I'm asleep.

I know. I am too.
