One Tree Hill (2003–2012): Season 4, Episode 8 - Nothing Left to Say But Goodbye - full transcript

This is Peyton's brother, Derek.

Who would have guessed
Peyton's brother was a brother?

- I'm your new English teacher, Mr. Chavez.
- Nick?

Well, I don't know who I hate more,
Mr. Chavez.

You, for being a lying bastard,
or me, for believing your crap.

- I'm gonna ask you out.
- Like on a date?

Just wanted to let you know.

There's nothing going on
between me and Peyton.

And there's nothing going on
between us, either,

so why are you still here?

Give me your hand.



I'm gonna get her back.

You can't help who you love, Peyton.

- I wanna go to Duke with you.
- Oh, Haley.

Daunte, I don't have your money yet.

I could forget the amount.

Ravens are favored to win
by 10 points tonight.

I think we're a lock
to win by a lot more than that.

Well, not if you want
your debt to go away.

The Ravens have won by nine!

They're heading
to the State Championship!

I wanted to say thanks.

I know how hard it was for you
to throw those points away.

You know I'll always be there for you.

But never again.



There's no reason you guys
should be here anymore. We're done.

Hear that, Bear? The kid says we're done.

Maybe we should leave.

Look, I made sure that we won
by less than 10 points.

That was the deal.

Yeah. Well, I thought about it.
I think I'm gonna extend our partnership.

What are you talking about?

State Championship. A lot of people think
we're gonna win tomorrow night.

Those people are right.

No, they're not.

I'm not gonna lose that game.

Think about next year, Nate.

You're gonna be a Duke Blue Devil,
get to play on TV.

Wonder what Duke would do
if they found out

that their star recruit shaved some points
in a high school basketball game.

- Like anybody would believe you.
- I got proof.

Your last game
was your worst game of the year.

Eight turnovers?

Hell, you missed three lay-ups
in the fourth quarter.

I mean, even Bear
thought that was a bit much.

All it takes is a whisper,
and your future's over.

Would you risk your future
and the future of your pretty little wife

for a meaningless trophy?

Yeah. That's right.

Think it over.

I'm sure you'll do the right thing.

"F" me.

- Hey, stranger.
- Hey. Brooke, what are you doing here?

I thought maybe
we could ride to school together.

- You gonna invite me in?
- Yeah, yeah. Come on in.

Sorry.

Lucas, I miss you.

Okay, I guess I thought
you were gonna say you miss me, too.

Brooke, of course I miss you.

I'm just a little confused.

You know, you show up on my doorstep
out of the blue

after ignoring me for the past month.

I've just been thinking a lot
about you and us,

and I thought that was enough.

Brooke, I don't know.

Because of Peyton?

You're never gonna let that go, are you?

For the last time,
Peyton and I are just friends, okay?

Just friends?

Well, at least you're enjoying the benefits.

It...

Cutting it kind of close, huh?

- I overslept.
- No, you didn't.

Are you forgetting?
We sleep in the same bed.

Oh, well, I know one person
that's not gonna forget it anytime soon.

Brooke. Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

- That must've been really weird for you.
- It's okay.

I actually have bigger news to report.

They caught him.
Derek, or whatever his name is.

He's in jail. It's over.

- Oh, my God. Oh, that's great, Peyton.
- Thanks.

Hey, look,
you can sleep in your own bed now, huh?

Lucky me.

Why did Brooke come over this morning,
some kind of morning-dew booty call?

She said she misses me.

- Do you want her to miss you?
- I don't know.

Look, I know you can take care of yourself.
Just be careful, okay?

What happened to you this morning?

I kind of went to see Lucas.

- Should have seen that coming.
- Should have seen what coming?

Well, it's obvious
that you're rebounding from Nick.

It's perfectly normal to wanna
re-tap an old keg after a breakup.

That is not what this is about,
and I don't even like beer.

I just worry that
I might have screwed up a good thing.

You know, I do miss him.
What if I made a mistake?

Trust me, Brooke, you didn't.

How am I supposed to be sure?

I mean, what if I only broke up with him
'cause I was mad at Peyton?

What if you just realized
you didn't love him anymore?

Okay, look, what you need to do is focus.

You are organizing
tonight's basketball awards banquet.

I can't wait to get out of here.
I'm so excited graduation's coming.

Yeah, for some of us.

Hey, don't forget that you promised
to help me decorate for the banquet today.

Yeah, remind me
to quit making drunken promises.

I'll meet you there after school.
I gotta deal with something.

- Okay.
- Hi, Mouth. Bye, Mouth.

Hey, Rachel.

Gigi, hi. Didn't see you coming.

- I'm sneaky like that.
- Good to know.

I just wanted to tell you
that I had a great time on our date.

So did I. It was definitely not boring.

- Walk me to class?
- Yeah.

- You wanted to see me, Coach?
- Yeah. Come on in, Nathan.

Have a seat.

I just wanted to tell you

that you're getting
the Most Valuable Player trophy

at tonight's banquet.

I'd like to ask Lucas to present it to you.

Okay.

I also found out the alumni are giving me
some kind of a lifetime achievement thing.

Coach, that's great. You deserve it.

I don't know. Lifetime achievement?

Sounds like an obituary to me.

It still hasn't sunk in

that tomorrow night's game
is the last one I'll ever coach.

Yeah.

Can you keep a secret?

I really want this championship.

Here, take Mr. Kelly's English quiz
down to the tutor center and file it.

Then bring me back my key, okay? Thanks.

Miss Gatina?

A little early for you to be at school,
isn't it?

Kind of. Quick question.

If someone was failing calculus
this late in the year,

what would that mean?

Well, calculus is a part of
the school's core curriculum.

So if one were to fail it, that student
would not graduate with their class.

That's what I thought. Thanks.

Can I give you some advice, Rachel?

It's no secret you flirt your way
through high school.

You're a pretty girl,
and you can bluff a lot of people.

But you can't bluff math.

Study for your final, okay?

And graduate with your friends.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You know, some people actually eat lunch
during their lunch break.

Well, good for them.
Unfortunately, we need money.

I just figured I'd pick up
a few extra shifts at the caf?.

It might give us some
extra breathing room. Check this out.

- What is this?
- Breathing room.

- You made all this today?
- Yeah, on one table.

That's them leaving now.
Hey, guys! Please come again.

Count on it.

- Hey, I'll see you back at school.
- Okay.

- Bye.
- See you.

Hey!

This is over.

Stay away from me,
stay away from my wife,

and forget about
the State Championships.

It's not gonna happen.

You can tell Duke whatever you want.
Now we're done.

You really think
all we're gonna do is tell Duke?

- Come here!
- What? No!

You want to mess around?

Hold his leg up.

Wait! No!

- Come here!
- No!

Say goodbye to basketball.
You won't play anywhere.

Hell, you'll be lucky to walk again.

- It didn't have to come to this.
- No!

Here's my final tip to you.

Lose that game.

You sure about the color?

Because this is starting
to look like that scene in The Shining

with those creepy little twins.

Oh, am I boring you?

Just say the word,
and I can stop painting your room.

I'm sorry.

I'm just dealing
with some stupid high school boy drama.

- Lucas, huh?
- Is it that obvious?

- Only to everyone.
- Everyone except Lucas.

So make it obvious to him.

I don't understand
why you're so afraid of your own feelings.

Well, those feelings are what destroyed
my friendship with Brooke,

and I don't want to lose Lucas, too.

What have I been trying to teach you?
You can't live in fear.

Life is about taking risks,

not being afraid
to go after what you want.

I'm just not sure this is the right time.

It never is. That's why it's called a risk.

You got that banquet tonight.
Ask him to go with you.

Maybe I should.

Well, look, I gotta get back to school.

But the room really is
looking so much better.

Tell you what.

I'll promise to have this room done
by the time you get home

if you promise to take a risk today.

Deal?

Okay. Deal.

All right.

No fear.

Hey, Nate.

Luke, not now, okay? I'm not in the mood.

Look, Whitey asked me to present you
with the MVP award at tonight's banquet.

Well, if you have a problem with that,
then just say no.

No, I'll do it, but before I do,

I need to know
if I'm presenting Nathan Scott, the MVP,

or Nathan Scott, the point-shaver.

Lucas, I don't need another lecture, okay?

I didn't ask you to miss those free throws.

If you don't want to give me
the stupid award, then just don't.

You told me this was over, Nathan.

Just promise me that it is.

Peyton, I brought you something.
Thought you could use it.

Am I missing something?

It's a to-go box, you know,
since you're screwing my leftovers.

Really, Brooke?

You seriously went through the trouble
of bringing me an actual to-go box?

- At least you're a dedicated bitch.
- Says the dedicated slut.

For the record, I'm not screwing Lucas.

I know you have trouble comprehending

two people in bed together
actually just sleeping.

Remember, Peyton, I gave Lucas to you,
and I can take him back whenever I want.

Brooke, are you listening to yourself?

If you decide to get back with Lucas,
you better mean it,

'cause he deserves to be
with somebody who loves him.

Someone like you?

Luke, can I talk to you?

Well, that depends.
You gonna bite my head off?

Sounds like fun, but there's probably
too many people around for that.

- Look, about this morning...
- Listen, you don't have to explain.

It's none of my business.
I shouldn't have interrupted.

Well, you weren't interrupting anything.

Peyton's been sleeping over 'cause
that crazy stalker guy's been missing.

But they finally caught him,
so she's safe now.

- So she won't be sleeping over anymore?
- No.

But even if she was, you know,
why would you care?

Luke, the reason
that I came over this morning

was to ask if you wanted to go
to the banquet with me.

- You mean, like a date?
- Or as friends.

We should be able to be friends, right?

Yeah, I kind of remember
asking you that same question once.

And you were right, okay?
I know that now. So what do you say?

Yeah. I'll go to the banquet with you.

Okay. I'll see you later, then.

In case you were wondering,

the nurse's office is still the best place
to treat a venereal disease.

That's good to know.

Actually, I was looking for you.
I need you to tutor me.

Oh, God, she's serious.

I'm failing calculus, and if I don't pass,

I won't be able to graduate
with my friends.

Remind me who your friends are again.

Look, Haley,
I know we've had our differences...

You think?

I've seen what you can do with some
of those brain-dead losers at our school,

and I'm actually smart.

I've just skipped too many classes,
and I can't catch up on my own.

Well, if you're really committed to this,

I will be happy to recommend
another tutor to you.

But I can't help you personally.
It's not possible.

Oh, I figured you'd be all booked up.

No, no. I have plenty of time.
I just can't stand you.

Five visits in one week.

I think you've just become
my most loyal customer.

What can I get you?

Actually, I came by to see if you were
going to the awards banquet tonight.

Yeah, I wouldn't miss it.

Well, in that case,
how about we go together?

Not as a date, just two people
attending the same event,

riding in the same car,
possibly sitting at the same table.

Look, Dan, I appreciate everything
that you've done for me lately, but I can't.

- I'm sorry.
- No, I understand. I'll see you there.

Hey, Sawyer.
Thanks for ditching me at lunch.

Sorry. Derek's repainting my room.

I figured the least I could do
is keep him company.

You two are getting pretty close, huh?

I guess so. He's still annoying as hell.

Seems to have an opinion
about everything.

- Remind you of anyone?
- Lf you mean you, then yes.

So, look, I was wondering,

do you want to go to the banquet tonight,
like, together?

I'd love to, Peyton.

But I know that
there's some weirdness going on

between you and Brooke right now.

What does that have to do
with us going to the banquet together?

- I already told Brooke I'd go with her.
- Oh.

I feel bad. I mean, it'd just be great
if we could all go together, you know?

No, no, it's cool.

Really, it's not a big deal.
I just didn't know you two...

No, no, no. I don't know if we are.
I mean, I guess I'll find out tonight.

Wish me luck.

Look at this thing. These are ugly.

Yeah, they're pretty ugly. Who cares?

I do. I don't want tacky flowers
sucking the energy out of the room.

Why are you so concerned
about this stupid banquet?

'Cause I asked Lucas to go with me.

Brooke, what are you thinking?

Go sleep with him if you're horny.
Don't go to the banquet with him.

- What you're feeling isn't real.
- Well, maybe you're wrong.

These are wrong.

You know what this means, don't you?
You have a date for tonight and I don't.

Well, you may not have a date,

but you have a seating chart
you can help me with.

Well, you've got a problem.

Do you realize
who you have sitting at this table?

I know exactly
who I have sitting at that table.

- Then we are in for a fun night.
- Yeah.

Hey.

Oh, Mouth, I need you
to be my date for the banquet tonight.

I'll pick you up at 6:00,
and don't wear the Drakkar.

Sorry, Rachel, I'm going with Gigi.

In fact, I better go home and get ready.

But the room looks really great, you guys.
Those flowers are awesome.

Okay, we are losing the flowers.

And it looks like you're going solo. Sorry.

Or not.

Hello?

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. I understand.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Are you kidding me?

This place looks great!
I can't believe you finished.

Just holding up my end of the bargain.

- Question is, did you?
- Yeah. I took a risk.

Are you gonna leave me hanging?

He's going to the banquet with Brooke.

I'm sorry, Peyton.

At least you put yourself out there.
I'm proud of you.

Thanks.

So I kind of need a favor.

Will you go with me? And I'm not sure
I can handle another "no."

I'd be honored to.

Cool.

You got a special place for this?

I used to. I don't think I need it anymore.

- Hey.
- Hey!

I heard you're presenting Nathan
with the MVP award tonight.

That's awesome. Do you need a ride?

We can swing by
and pick you up on the way.

Actually, I'm going with Brooke.

Rewind. When did this happen?

She asked me today.

- Are you back together?
- You guys think I'm crazy.

- No, I...
- I don't think you're crazy, Luke.

I mean, maybe Brooke thinks
she's made a mistake.

Everybody deserves a second chance.

I agree.
I think you guys were good together.

Oh, hey, Rachel asked me to tutor her.

- You're tutoring Rachel?
- Hell, no. I said she asked me.

Wait, wait, wait.
What happened to second chances?

Rachel's had plenty of second chances,

and every time
she's proven her true colors.

I'm just saying.

Look, people make mistakes,

but if they're willing
to put the past behind them,

then maybe we should, too.

Right, Mom?

Right.

Right.

It's not a date.

Wow! D?j? vu.

Dan Scott and Karen Roe, together again.

I hear you're pregnant, too.

It is just like our high school prom.

Shari, is your son Tim
even on the basketball team anymore?

Actually, Timmy is doing really well.

He's at a private institution
that focuses specifically

on each student's strengths
and weaknesses.

Just say he's slow, Shari.

Rachel, are we at the same table?

Sort of.

I think there's been a mistake.
Where's Gigi supposed to sit?

Oh, Gigi, I'm sorry.

You were a last-minute add,
so I had to seat you at another table.

That's okay, 'cause now I've got
the best seat in the house.

Let me get you a chair.

We're at table five.

No fear.

Everyone,
for those of you who don't know,

this is my brother, Derek, the real one.

- Hey.
- Nice to meet you.

- How you doing?
- Nice to meet you, buddy.

Hey. Nice to meet you.

- What's up?
- Hey.

Hey.

So, guys, is Tree Hill gonna win
the State Championship this year?

I don't know.
Hey, Nathan, are we gonna win tomorrow?

We're gonna try.

Anybody else need a drink?

Well, he seems nice. Derek.

Yeah, he's a good guy.

- You should really get to know him.
- What's the point?

Besides, tonight's about us, right?

How's Haley doing?

She's grown into a strong woman.

I can't believe she's gonna be a mom.

It seems like yesterday
that she was coming

and asking Lucas to come out and play.

You know, they're definitely young,

but at least they have each other.

Nathan's gonna be a great father.

Karen, I realize you have no regrets,
but I do.

I just need you to know that.

Good evening, everybody.

Tonight I've been asked to present

a very important award
to a very important person.

The Most Valuable Player award honors
not only the best player on the court,

but also a true leader off the court.

An MVPleads a team
not only in points or rebounds,

but also leads by example.

And we are very proud
to follow in the footsteps of our leader

and our most valuable player,
Nathan Scott.

You're our leader, Nate.

I'm not very good at speeches,

so I just wanted
to thank my teammates, guys,

and, most of all, Coach Whitey Durham

for giving me a year
that I'll always remember.

Thanks, Coach. Appreciate it.

Thanks.

- Hey, proud wifey.
- Hi.

Did Nathan look nervous to you at all?

Well, he looked like the star
of the basketball team.

- Yeah, he did, didn't he?
- Yeah.

Okay. Rachel told me
she asked you for tutoring help

and you turned her down.

Yeah. Can you blame me?
She's been hitting on Nathan for a month.

I know. I know. She has flaws, big ones.

But, deep down, I promise you
she's a really good person.

Oh, my God, you and Lucas
with your second chances.

- I cannot help her!
- Okay.

I'm not saying you have to tutor her.

I'm just saying
she's been really good to me lately.

So think about it, okay?

- Hey, Private, you hanging in there?
- Trying my best.

Thanks for coming with me tonight.

Without you,
I would have left a long time ago.

Peyton, I need to tell you something.

- My unit is deploying in 24 hours.
- Deploying?

I take it that's Marine for "you're leaving"?

I leave for assignment tomorrow.

How long have you known?

I got the call today.
I was waiting for the right time to tell you.

I'm supposed to be back
at the base by now.

- Why aren't you?
- Because my little sister needed me.

I guess I should have let you
hang that drawing.

As most of you know, tomorrow night
is Coach Whitey Durham 's final game.

And to show our appreciation
for his dedication and excellence,

we present him tonight
with a lifetime achievement award.

So, without further ado,
I give you your coach, Whitey Durham.

You do realize
we have one more game to play?

Let me tell you,
this award means an awful lot to me.

I might have given a lifetime to this team,

but the players,
the players have given me so much more.

You know, basketball was my first love.

And, as most of you in here realize,

you don't forget your first love.

My only regret is that
I can't share this wonderful moment

with the other love of my life,

my late wife, Camilla.

Camilla was the only person
who ever fully understood me.

Being with her made everything else
seem less important.

The moment I met her,
I knew that I was looking at my future.

And I knew no person
could ever come between us.

I know Camilla would have liked
this group of boys.

I want to thank them,

and I want to thank all of you

for allowing me to spend a lifetime

with my first love.

Thank you.

Hey, Dad, I need to talk to you.

Excuse me.

I'm in trouble, Dad.

- How bad is it?
- Bad enough that I need you.

I borrowed some money from these guys
and I couldn't pay them back,

so they asked me
to shave a few points in the last game.

Tell me you didn't do it.

- How could you be so stupid?
- I came to you for help!

I needed you, and you said no!
I didn't have a choice!

And now they want me to throw
the State Championship tomorrow night.

You gotta help me, Dad.

- Tell me their names.
- Daunte and Bear.

Damn it, Nathan.

Go back inside. I'll take care of this.

Dad,

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Karen.
Something urgent came up. I have to go.

That's okay. I can find another ride home.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah. I'll be fine.

It's not like this was a date
or anything, remember?

If you say so.

I just have one question.

What, no props?

If you're sleeping in Lucas' bed,
why haven't you told him how you feel?

Brooke, I told you
I was not gonna say anything to Lucas

until it was over between the two of you.

And so, yes, if you had moved on,

then I probably would have
said something by now,

but you haven't dated anybody
since Lucas.

You had your chance, Peyton.
You should have said something.

It doesn't matter now, does it?

Looks like the two of you
are getting back together.

I was mad at you when I asked him
to come with me tonight.

- So you invited him out of spite?
- No, not at first.

Now I don't know anymore.

Mayor Dan Scott.

Are we sitting at your table, Danny?

I understand you've had
a little misunderstanding with my son.

Now, we're all businessmen,

so how much is it gonna take
to make this all go away?

Take a hike, bitches.

Daunte?

All right. Go on. Go on.

Let me ask you a question, Mr. Mayor.

Where the hell do you think you are?

You think you can settle this
with a checkbook?

Not unless you're prepared
to write a check for all the money

that the gamblers stand to win
tomorrow night when your son loses.

Or, rather, your sons.

You don't scare me.
You're just a couple of punks.

Now, this is what's gonna happen.

You stay away from my son,
whether I give you money or not.

Do you understand?

It's awful comforting having
so many people close to you, isn't it?

For example, your ex-wife,
your cute little daughter-in-law...

A couple sons.

Oh, and let's not forget Karen Roe
and her baby.

Be an awful shame
if the ground next to your brother Keith

started getting real crowded,
don't you think?

Here's a tip for you, Mr. Mayor.

Bet against the Ravens tomorrow night.
Make yourself some money.

Get the hell out of here.

I'm so proud of you.

God, I wish people would stop saying that.

Why?

What is going on with you?
You've been so distant all day.

- Is it the game?
- No. I'm fine.

I'm just...
I'm feeling a lot of pressure lately, I guess.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, you know what?

For the first time in a while,
I think everything's gonna be okay.

Good.

- So I gotta ask your advice on something.
- All right.

Rachel asked me to tutor her.

Wow.

And I just wanted to know
what you thought I should do.

Well, I remember not too long ago
I needed a tutor,

and you set aside your feelings
and agreed to help me.

Do not compare yourself to Rachel.

Well, we all make mistakes, all of us.

Look, you do what you wanna do.

But I think you should know that,

when I was freaking out
about the whole pregnancy thing,

Rachel was the one
that got through to me.

Oh, God.

I'm gonna have to tutor Rachel, aren't I?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I better get back to the base
before they think I went AWOL.

Oh.

I'll drop you off on the way.

It's actually a really beautiful night.
I was thinking maybe I'd walk.

- You sure you want to do that?
- "No fear," right?

I haven't walked by myself since
Psycho Derek disappeared. The other one.

It'd be nice to walk home by myself.

Peyton Sawyer, wanting to be alone.

Look how far you've come.

It's because of you.

So I'm kind of a pro at this next part,
the "goodbye" part.

"People always leave," remember?

You'll be careful, right?

Don't worry about me.
I won't go trying to be a hero or anything.

Sure you will.

Come here.

I'll be back, Peyton.

I believe you.

Thanks.

Lucas, don't hate me, okay?

But I think that this was a mistake.

So do I.

- You do?
- I...

I missed you so much
when you broke up with me, Brooke.

I mean, I spent every day hoping
that maybe we'd get back together.

But listening to Whitey
describe his life with Camilla,

- I just realized...
- He wasn't describing us.

- Do you think that even exists anymore?
- What?

A love so strong
that no person can come between it.

I sure hope so.

Yeah.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

So where does this leave us?

Friends?

Friends.

- Rachel?
- Haley.

Look, I will tutor you on three conditions.

The first one is that you have to work
around my schedule.

I'm working a ton of hours right now,

and I really don't care
if it disrupts your social life.

The second is,
if you miss one session, it's over.

- Got it?
- Got it.

So what's the third condition?

No matter how nice I seem,
you have to remember

that I can't stand you.

Okay?

- Did you talk to them?
- Yeah.

What are we gonna do, Dad?

You're gonna lose
the State Championship.

Now, this is more like it.

Listen, I just wanted to say I'm sorry

that we didn't get to spend
more time together tonight.

How'd it go with Brooke?

I realized tonight
that it's over between me and Brooke.

And she realized it, too.

I love you, Lucas.

I love you, too, Peyton.

You don't understand.

I've been holding this in
for a really long time,

and you just need to know.

I love you.

I'm in love with you.
