One Tree Hill (2003–2012): Season 2, Episode 17 - Something I Can Never Have - full transcript

Previously on One Tree Hill:

-Take off the wedding ring.
-What?

-Let them think you're a couple.
-But we're not a couple.

Are you a couple in real life?

-Actually--
-You know, the music never lies.

Somebody bashed in
my car windshield last night.

I mean, could things get any worse?

You wanna ask me that again?

I fell in love with Keith for real.

I want him to know who you really are.

I'm sorry. She left.



I didn't do anything.

You sick bastard.

I found out about your arrangement
and I went to Jules.

And I threatened to tell the truth.

My dad got that job...

in California.

We're moving next week.

What are we gonna do?

I don't want to go.

What are you doing here?

Go get Haley. She's your wife.

Charles Bukowski once wrote.:

''There will always be something
to ruin our lives.

''It all depends on what
or which finds us first.



''We are always ripe
and ready to be taken. ''

Well, well, well. Isn't this the picture
of a perfect family?

What are you doing here, Nicki?

You mean, why am I not in Seattle? Right.

Some skank writes
a random city on a napkin...

and I catch the first flight out.

No. We had a court hearing
a few weeks ago...

and imagine my surprise
when you didn't show up.

I guess you didn't have
your mail forwarded to Seattle.

So since you didn't show...

the judge granted me
sole custody of my daughter...

which, for the brunette-impaired, means
that Jenny comes home to Mommy.

You're lying.

That's cute. She talks for you.

But I have a feeling that
a judge would have a problem...

awarding custody to a high-school dropout
who kidnapped his baby anyway.

How do judges feel about women
who abandon their children?

I don't know.
There was no one in court to ask.

So she's mine now. Hand her over.

Forget it. She'll never be yours.

I don't even believe you anyway.

You can not believe me all the way to jail
if you want.

She fights for you, too.

Fine.

We'll let the police deal with it.

See you soon, bunny.

Don't go.

I just needed to say it.

You have to stay.

We're finally friends again,
and now I'm leaving.

I really liked being
the girl behind the red door.

Mom.

What are you doing here?

I was waiting for Keith.

He never came home?

I guess not.

Yeah, he wasn't
at Jules' apartment either.

Any idea where else he might be?

If I had two guesses,
they'd both be at a bar getting drunk.

Why didn't you just tell me
what was going on?

'Cause I knew you'd tell Keith.

And I thought moving in with Dan...

was the only way to get him
to leave Keith alone.

You should have told me.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

You have no idea how hard this has been.

I have an idea.

So how did you find out
about Dan's arrangement with Jules?

What arrangement with Jules?

What arrangement?

Dan paid Jules to be with you.

So both of you knew about it
and you said nothing?

Keith, wait.

Let's talk about this.

Everyone I thought I cared about
lied to me.

What's there to talk about?

I'm not gonna need
a ride home after school.

I'm going to dinner with Peyton.

How romantic.

Is Velma picking you up
in the Mystery Machine?

She's not gay, Felix.

Everyone at school thinks she is.

Yeah, because you painted ''dyke''
on her locker!

Practically wrote itself.

-That's not funny.
-Look, whatever.

She's always jealous of me
hanging around Brooke.

-And you know she has a crush on you.
-That's not true.

Why did we leave our last school, Anna?

Because once the rumors started,
we couldn't stop them.

And no one cared if they weren't true.

You cried every day, remember?

Yes, Felix, I remember.

And I wasn't gonna let that happen again.

I knew if I painted ''dyke''
on Peyton's locker...

everyone would think she was gay.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

I was friends with her.

Really? I haven't seen you guys
hanging out as much since then.

You see, Anna? You're so predictable.

One well-placed rumor,
and you go running off scared.

Besides...

better her than you.

Little formal for work, don't you think?

Did you set me up?

Jules, the wedding,
was it just all a big lie?

What? Of course not.

We're brothers, Keith.
I would never do anything to hurt you.

Especially with the woman
you're gonna marry.

I'm sorry. I can't keep going.
It's just too good.

What can I say?

Of course I set you up.

How could you do that?

I just pictured you screwing
my wife over and over again...

thought about the heart attack it gave me,
and after that, it was easy.

Where is she?

I honestly don't know.

Check in the yellow pages
under ''W'' for whore.

No, wait. She's not that bright.
You better check under ''H.''

Get off him.

Come on.

Hey, calm down, man.

Get off me.

By the way, you're fired, too.

Do you believe that guy?

Congratulations, Dan.

I got nothing left to lose.

But you do.

Remember that.

I can't believe this is almost
our last time walking to class together.

I can't believe I'm getting weepy
about walking to class.

I feel like somebody needs to yell out,
''Dead girl walking.''

Band geek staring.

God.

I can't imagine what it would be like
to not have you to talk to every day.

I'm gonna get you a webcam.
That way it'll be like you're living with me.

Or I could just live with you.

-You could.
-Yeah.

You can. You spend most of your time
at my house anyway.

This is such a good idea. I'm so excited.

I'm gonna go find a phone
and call my mom.

Why not just use your cell?

My parents put me on
that pay-as-you-go plan.

I haven't paid.

Then go.

Go!

Hi. I have to tell you something.

AII right, tell me on the way to class.
I'm running late.

-It's gonna upset you.
-That seems to be the trend this week.

Are you leaving town
or here to steal a baby?

Felix is the one
who spray-painted your locker.

You know, I'm really not all that surprised.

I thought I saw him
goose-stepping down the hall.

I'm really sorry.

Anna, you're not the one
who owes me an apology.

I wouldn't hold your breath.
Felix isn't the remorseful type.

He owes you an apology, too.

He might have spray-painted ''dyke''
on my locker...

but he was talking about you.

He might not know that, but you do.

I know.

Haley, come on already.

We're gonna be late
for our own wedding reception.

Okay, just give me two more minutes.

Babe, this shower massager
has three speeds.

Yeah, and you have one: slow.

Quit complaining. I need the extra time.

Besides, people expect
the bride to look beautiful.

Yeah? What about me?

Don't be silly.
No one would ever expect that of you.

Okay. That does it.

If we're gonna be late,
we're gonna have fun doing it.

Give me that shower massager.

Mom, I wanna stay with Peyton.
I don't wanna leave school right now.

That is ridiculous.
You and Dad are never even home.

No. Mom.

You look about as happy as I do.

You okay?

I'll be fine.
I just have some things going on.

Nothing I can't handle.

Because it's totally unfair.

Yes, it is.

-Have you told her how you feel?
-No.

Anyway, she's moving.

At least she'd know. That's something.

You're encouraging me
to hit on your brother's girlfriend?

Yeah, I like you better.

I barely even knew her last year.

And now I can't imagine
life around here without her.

No, I hate you.

She's so sweet.

-They said no.
-Why?

Because this week
they've decided to be parents.

They said that since
you have no adult supervision...

it would be the same
as having me stay alone.

Are you kidding?

Charlie Brown has more
parental supervision than you.

-Yeah, they also think--
-What?

They think you're a bad influence on me.

Unbelievable.
Have your parents even met you?

Only briefly.

I can't believe
they won't let me stay with you.

My mom is being such a major...

bitch.

If it isn't the other woman
and my favorite travel agent.

Any other places
you'd like to recommend?

Yeah. Far away from me.

Unless you'd like your next period
to come out of your nose.

So, I showed up at Jake's this morning
with Tree Hill's finest...

and guess what, no Jake, no baby.

-Where the hell are they?
-Phoenix.

Are you even sure Jenny is your daughter?
Because she doesn't look like a bitch.

We'll see who the bitch is
once Jake spends some time in jail.

It'll still be you.

-Look, I'm tired of these games.
-Then leave.

You don't even care about Jenny, okay?
You're just doing this to get back at Jake.

You know, only someone
without a mother could think that.

You know, you'd better leave...

before Jenny knows
what it feels like to be motherless.

Wait, she already does.

Tell Jake that the longer he hides,
the worse it's gonna be for him.

Don't let her get to you, Peyton.

No judge is gonna side
with that psychopath over Jake.

Looks like they already did.

I don't even think Jake's
going to court to challenge it.

You think he's gonna run again?

He might.

If he thinks that Jenny
will wind up with Nicki.

-Damn it, I hate Mondays.
-Come on.

You wanted to see me?

Mr. Tagarro, close the door, please.

It's the one without ''dyke'' painted on it.

Haley, what's wrong?

My parents.

-What happened? Are they all right?
-Yeah, they're fine.

I'm just being stupid.

When they were here...

I spent all my time
at Lucas' house or with you...

and now that they're gone,
I just wish I could see them again.

Haley, they're in Georgia.
I'd hardly say they're gone.

Well, they're not here.

My house isn't even my house anymore.

It's like my whole family
just packed up and left...

before my high school graduation.

Not your whole family, Hales.

You still have me. I'm not going anywhere.

And your house is here, too.
It's just smaller and a lot more...

apartmenty.

Yeah, I know. I just....

I don't mean to be such a baby about this.

I just really miss them.

Pack your bag. We're going to Atlanta.

-Yeah, right.
-I'm serious.

We can't do that.
We're broke and we have to go to school.

I'm sure I could scrounge up
enough money for gas.

And screw school.

You're a year ahead of everybody
and there's no way I'll flunk.

I married my tutor.

That's really sweet. It's not that big a deal.

Yes, it is, all right?

Now, listen.

I may not always be able to give you
everything you want, but I can do this.

Come on. Let's go see our family.

Thank you.

You know, as long as I have you,
I have everything I want.

But we're still going.

You brought it on yourself, Felix.

I can't believe you.
Do you know how bad this is?

Mom and Dad will have
to buy the school a new wing...

to get me out of this.

You are missing the whole point.
Everything is always about you.

You never stop to think
about other people.

And you do?

Did you consider what would happen
to me when you turned me in?

You totally screwed me over...

when I was the only one
looking out for you.

You were looking out for yourself.

You couldn't handle anyone thinking
your sister was a lesbian.

Whatever. The whole thing
would have blown over...

if you would've just
kept your big mouth shut.

No one's gonna even care
when they find out I did it.

Even Brooke?

Can I help you with something?

Hi, I'm Charlotte.

My parents are looking at the house.

It's cute, I guess, for the sticks.

The sticks?

You live here. Right. Must be a huge drag.

Like, what do you do for fun
without cute boys or good parties?

Well, well.

We have a nightly banjo duel,
and then there's the cousin swap...

and on Friday nights
we all take baths together.

Look, I'm really sorry.
I didn't mean to insult you.

I guess I'm just bitter about this move.

Yeah, I know the feeling.

Maybe Tree Hill's not so bad after all.

Well, see you.

Who was that?

The new me.

-Any word from Keith?
-No.

You think he's gonna be okay?

Not for a while.

Keith was right.

I should have told him.

You thought you were
looking out for him, Lucas.

Your heart was in the right place.

It might take some time,
but eventually he'll understand that.

So, when are you moving home?

I'm not.

Like hell you're not.

What reason on earth
could you have for staying?

If Dan could do this to his own brother...

who knows what else he could be up to.

I'm his one weakness. I gotta stay.

Hi, you've reached the Scotts.
My wife and I are--

Your wife?
What, do you, like, own me now?

Yeah, I do. So stop cutting me off.

Hi. This is Nathan and Haley Scott.
Please leave a message, or not.

That's the worst thing I've ever heard.

-Shut up. It rhymed. I like it.
-Message has been erased.

Fine, let's just do one together, okay?

Wait a minute. Isn't that something
only really cheesy couples do?

Yeah, well, we are
a really cheesy couple, mister.

-Good point.
-Okay.

-Hi, you've reached Haley.
-And Nathan. I live here, too.

Yes, Nathan lives here, too,
because we're married.

And we can't get to the phone right now
because we're....

Having sex.

-I mean, we're having really hot sex.
-Okay.

We're still on. Leave a message.

And we'll get back
to you when we're done.

This is crazy. I don't want
to get anybody else in trouble.

I should just go.

Jake, you need to be smart about this.
And running isn't smart.

You need legal help. Settle it that way.

Especially if Nicki's already done that.

I can't afford a lawyer.

I can. I got a great attorney.

I can't ask you to do that.

You're not. I'm offering.

Thanks.

I mean, I appreciate it...

but cost aside,
there's no guarantee that I'll win.

It's true. But at least this way
you get a chance.

-Let me make a call.
-Okay.

So that's great news.

But if there's even a chance
that Nicki could get custody of Jenny...

I can't take it.

Keith, I'm so sorry.

Yeah, me, too.

Wait. Please.

Karen, haven't you already done enough?

I wanna help.

I didn't know about Jules
until right before the wedding.

And the only reason I know anything
is because I was worried about Lucas.

So Andy and I hired a private investigator
to look into Dan.

I had no idea
that he was involved with Jules.

It doesn't really matter anymore.

-Does it?
-Of course it does.

If she truly loves you...

couldn't you still love her?

I don't know.

I guess I'd at least like a chance to....

I guess I'd at least
like to find out the truth.

Her real name is Emily Chambers.

Everything in that file is what
the investigator found out about her.

Emily.

Dan is a monster.

But he gave me Lucas.

And despite his worst intentions...

I have the one person
I love most in the world.

Maybe you can, too.

You know, TV might be more entertaining.

There's nothing on TV I want to see.

Talk to me.

My whole world's
being ripped away from me.

So is Jake's.

And yours.

AII I can do is sit here
and watch it happen.

Tell you what, let's change that.
I'll kill Nicki for you.

No, really. At least that way,
Jake would stay here...

I'd be sent to a prison in North Carolina
and be close to you...

and Felix could come
and give me multiple conjugals.

That was a joke.

Brooke, you know how they say,
''Misery loves company.''

There's something
I got to tell you about Felix.

We are finished.

-Let me explain.
-No.

I cannot believe you would be
such a hateful scumbag...

as to write ''dyke'' anywhere,
let alone on my best friend's locker.

Brooke, wait.

I am so glad I am moving.

I had no idea I was
a Grand Wizard's next-door neighbor.

And you actually had me starting to think
you were a decent guy.

I was trying to protect my sister, Brooke.

Like I did at the night at the dance...

when Peyton and I argued
and you dumped me.

-I wasn't thinking.
-Well, what a surprise.

I was in a dark place
and I took it out on Peyton. I'm sorry.

Yeah, you're right. You are sorry.

So why don't you crawl back
into your dark, little place and die there?

Coming in to say goodbye?

Actually, I think I'm gonna stay.

At least for now.

Look, as messed up as it was...

you did keep your promise
to leave Keith alone.

So I need to keep mine.

And you're also paying
for my HCM medicine...

and since I really don't want
to die anytime soon...

I need it.

What about your mom?

She's not too happy
with me right now, I think.

Besides you, I'm currently
her least favorite person.

I'm sure that's not true.

But I'm thrilled to have you.

Thanks.

Nathan, I'm slipping.
You're gonna drop me.

Drop you? lf I wanted to,
I could shoot you like a three-pointer.

-Want me to try?
-Don't you dare.

Well, we're gonna do this the right way.

Now, since I couldn't get
the fancy honeymoon suite...

I figured I could, you know...

at least carry you across
our one-bedroom threshold.

Oh, my God!

I wanted everything to be perfect.

I know you didn't get your dream wedding
or dream honeymoon.

-I got my dream guy.
-Yeah, you did get that.

Honeymoon suite, huh?

Listen, we don't have to do anything,
all right?

That's not why I married you.

You gotta be kidding me.

What have I got myself into?

I'm here for Haley Scott.

Haley who?

Haley James.

Are you on the list?

I'm her husband.

That's great. You have to tell her I said hi.

Nathan. Oh, my God.
What are you doing here?

I wanted to see you.

I needed to see you.

I'm so glad you did. I miss you.

Listen, I asked you to marry me
because I want to spend my life with you.

I still want that.

-I love you, Haley.
-I love you, too.

So I came here for you,
and I'll be here no matter what.

I'll go with you on the tour.
I'll wait for you.

Whatever you want me to do.

I'm not giving up on us.

I'm not giving up on our marriage.

I don't know what to say.

No, Chris and I aren't together.
I promise you, it's never been about that.

You're not wearing your ring.

I love you.

I do.

But I feel like
maybe we rushed things a little bit.

Maybe I rushed things a little bit.

We're so young,
and I wasn't ready for all this.

You and the music...

and now it's all happening at once...

and it's really hard.

I don't know if I can be
who you need me to be.

AII I want you to be is my wife.

Is that too much to ask?

We're ready.

I have to go.

God. Can you just wait here
and I will meet you after the show...

and then we can talk. I don't even....

I'm really happy that you came.

I love you.

Please welcome back.:
Haley James!

Mom and Dad are sending me
to military school.

At least there won't be any lesbians
to scare you.

Brooke dumped me, too.

You know, no matter
where we moved or how we fit in...

you always had my back,
and I always had yours. AIways.

Now you turn your back on me...

because I wrote ''dyke''
on some stupid chick's locker?

She's not stupid.

Peyton has been more of a friend to me
than you have.

And she didn't do anything
to deserve you tagging her locker.

-Who cares?
-I care.

It's a hate crime.

-It's just a word.
-It's not just a word.

It's who I am.

Peyton isn't gay, Felix.

I am.

So you want to spray-paint
''dyke'' somewhere?

Do it on my walls. Spray it on me.

What are you talking about?

You know what I'm talking about.

The rumors.

They weren't rumors.

They aren't.

Shut up, Anna.

No, I won't shut up.

You think I've been running from this?

I haven't. I have been carrying it around.

And if you think what you've been doing
is protecting me...

then you're wrong.

You have been making me
afraid to be who I am.

Well, I won't be afraid anymore.

Now you know the truth.

I'm gay.

So do you still have my back?

I'm sorry about you and Felix.

You okay?

It's just every time I see something
in Tree Hill, it's probably the last time.

So I feel like I have to take
mental pictures of everything, you know?

Make sure you make me look good
when you take my picture.

So what are you gonna miss
most about me?

I can only choose one thing?

Yes, and it has to be something good.

Not how much you'll miss
hanging out with me or how hot I am.

-Neither one of those, huh?
-No.

Damn it.

I'd miss the girl behind the red door.

Come on.

This is all my stuff. I don't understand.

I had my mom talk to your parents...

and they said you could stay here
till the summer.

They didn't want to, Brooke,
but my mom can be really convincing.

You did this for me?

I wasn't ready to lose you yet.

So, you gonna stay or what?

Yeah, of course.

I wasn't ready to be lost.

Thank you.

So much for painting
happy, little trees, huh?

I think you might want
to start locking your door...

if a man with a baby
can take you by surprise.

If every surprise
is this man with this baby...

then the door stays unlocked.

I was worried you skipped town again.

No, I want to stay.

Look, I said when I came back in town,
I wasn't gonna run anymore. I meant it.

If Nicki's ready to fight for custody,
then so am I.

What if she shows up tonight?

I locked the door, just in case.

Look, Peyton, I know this is hard.

I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
It's just...

the last time I left town,
it was me and Jenny.

And now it's me, Jenny and you.

You guys have been great.
Chris Keller's up next.

-Dinner's in ten minutes.
-Okay.

Thank you, Karen.
You know you saved my life, right?

Don't thank me yet, Brooke.

Sit down.

Now, I know your parents
are a lot more hands-off.

But I'm not gonna make it easy on you...

and sometimes
you're not gonna like me for it.

When you're in my house,
you live by my rules.

There will be no staying out all night...

no boys sleeping over, no....

It's just like having a real mom.

-AII right.
-Okay.

Keith, are you leaving?

Look...

I know I made the wrong decision
in not telling you about Jules and Dan.

And I'm sorry.

But you got to know Jules loves you.

You mean Emily?

You should've told me the truth, Luke.

I've always been honest with you.

I thought we meant more to each other.

But maybe I was wrong.

Keith, where are you going?

Don't know.

You coming back?

For the first time in my life...

I don't know if I have anything
to come back for.

Good show, Haley.
