One Tree Hill (2003–2012): Season 8, Episode 11 - Darkness on the Edge of Town - full transcript

Jamie subtly pretends not to know the word 'entrepreneur' so his friend Madison can win. While they are driven home by their teacher, a storm knocks down her car. Because Nathan has a flat, the first to pass by is Brooke, who meanly somehow blamed Julian and his ma for her choice making a move to L.A. logical. Meanwhile Quinn, home alone, must fight for her life, over and over against Clay's viciously vindictive ex Katie Ryan, who madly enjoys dueling. Brooke can't cope, but Julian rides to the rescue even before a second hit and run turns the situation desperately.

Previously on One Tree Hill...

So, what's up with this need
for sudden male bonding?

I need to find a best man
for my wedding.

"Deficit"!

D-e-f-I-c-I-t.

"Deficit."

Very nice!

Okay, next one.

You ready?

"Fiduciary."

Nate, there's something
that I've never told you.



I used to be married...

Before you and I met.

Her name was Sara.

And she died.

Sara! Hey!

I'm gonna get that Agent.

As it turns out...

I'm his type.

What are you doing here?

Honey, it's Sara.

Don't say that.

Clay...

Sara's dead.

And she's not
coming back.



And neither are you.

All right?
Do you understand me?

Don't ever
come back here.

Out.

Why do you have a photo
with her?

Because it's not her.

It's Sara.

You'll never be Sara.

Neither will you.

We'll see about that.

Quinn?

Well, it's rainy, and it's
windy, and it's cold out there,

and at this point,
i would advise everyone

to batten down the hatches
and get inside

because we are fast approaching
one serious storm.

Madison,
your word is "Tsunami."

"Tsunami."

T-s-u-n-a-m-I.

"Tsunami."

That's correct!

Jamie, your word is
"entrepreneur."

Ohh.

No, no, no,
he's got this.

He corrected this
on my last paper for class.

Really?
Mm-hmm.

"Entrepreneur."

E-n-t...

R-e-p...

R-e-n...

...U-e-r.

"Entrepreneur."

Yes!

I'm sorry.
That's incorrect.

Ooh.

Madison, if you spell
this next word correctly,

you will be...

Tree Hill grade school
spelling bee champion.

The word is
"entrepreneur."

"Entrepreneur."

E-n-t-r-e-

p-r-e-n-e-u-r.

"Entrepreneur."

That's correct!

♪ Is it ever
gonna be enough? ♪

You did great, Madison.

Thanks, Jamie.
You did great, too.

Congratulations.

Congratulations!

Great job.

♪ Is it ever
gonna be enough? ♪

Well, second place.

Also known
as the first loser.

You should be ashamed
of yourself, you know that?

As a matter of fact, why don't
you walk home in the rain

and think about how badly
you screwed up?

Grampa Dan?

Nice call.

You killed it up there,
buddy.

I am so proud of you.

Thank you.

Oh, and by the way,

Clay said he's sorry
he had to miss it.

He's out checking in
with some clients,

and he couldn't get back in time
because of the storm.

That's all right.

But I know he's gonna be
proud of you.

Now, what do you say
we get out of here

before this storm
gets us, too?

Actually, I was hoping

that I could go back to town
with Chuck and Madison.

Ms. Lauren said
she'd take us.

Hi, buddy!

Ooh, you did so awesome!

Okay, thank you, mom.

Thank you. Thank you, thank you.

Jamie wants to go home with
Ms. Lauren and his friends.

Oh. Well, uh...
I mean, I think the storm's

really bad out
tonight, hon.

So? Chuck and Madison
are going.

Chuck's mom
is an alcoholic.

Mom, come on.
I'm not a baby anymore. Please.

I know you're not
a

Okay,
I'll give you a choice.

You can either ride home
with Chuck,

who's probably standing behind
me right now making fun of you,

or you can go with your mom
and dad who love you,

and we'll stop by and see
aunt Quinn who's all alone.

It's your choice.

Thanks. See ya.

Fine. Go,
you little dork.

You're the dork.

Ohh!

Who took my baby and replaced
him with that monster?

I told you we should've
sold him to Brooke

before she lost
all her money.

You do realize
we live here, yes?

Yeah, I understand that.

What I don't understand
is why we live here.

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe because
it's my home?

Oh, well,
my home was in Los Angeles --

a home I gave up
to be closer to you,

because your work
was here.

And was that
so horrible?

No, but at least acknowledge
that it was a sacrifice,

one that I was happy
to make for you.

But your work
isn't here anymore.

That's mean.

I'm not saying it
to be mean.

I'm saying it
because there's got to be

so many more
opportunities

for you in Los Angeles --
I don't --

and there's definitely more
opportunities for me there.

I suppose this was
your mother's idea?

Come on, don't drag my mom
into this, please.

Oh, how am I not
supposed to?

She drags herself into every
other aspect of our lives.

I said "please."

You know, it all makes
perfect sense to me now.

You wanted me to lose
the company.

What's that supposed to mean?
It means...

You encouraged me
to give it up,

because it makes it
so much easier

for you to move us
to Los Angeles!

That's ridiculous. I --
is it?

I tho--
Brooke, look at me.

I thought you would be
happy there,

but if you don't want
to move there, that's fine.

We'll just...

We might have to spend
more time apart.

It's not that big
a deal.

Brooke, where are you going?
There's a storm outside.

It is a big deal!

Brooke!

Damn it!

So you won't be back
till tomorrow.

No, I-I'll be fine.

Although I do
totally hate storms.

They really freak me out.

Clay?

Clay, you still there?

He's fine.

It's really bad out here.

Maybe I should just call Lauren
and check.

And, what, distract her
while she's driving in this?

He's fine, Haley.
You heard him.

He's not a baby anymore.

Yes, he is.
He will always be my baby.

Are you okay driving?

Yeah. I actually
like it like this.

We've had a lot
of interesting moments

in the rain, you and I.

Mm, interesting.

Hello?

Where are you?

I don't know.
I'm just driving.

Brooke,
you need to come home.

There's flooding
everywhere.

They're saying that
the levee might break,

and on top of all that...

I'm sorry.

And I love you.

Please come home.

I don't know if I can,
babe.

I can barely see
the road.

Okay, well, I'll come
and get you. Where are you?

What? Ok-- I'll get you.
Where are --

I can't hear you!

I said, where are you?

Just stay put,
and I'll come get you.

I'm right here.

Aunt Brooke!

Jamie?!
Are you okay?!

I think so.
I'm stuck.

Ms. Lauren won't wake up.

Uh, okay.
It's gonna be okay.

You're Madison,
right, sweetie?

Are you hurt?

No. I don't think so.

Okay.
Will you stand up for me?

Come to me.
I'm gonna help you out.

Can you do that?
I can do it.

I know you can.
Go on.

Hang on.

Okay.

Jame, I'm coming.

All right.

Here.
Let me get under here.

I can't get it, buddy.

Is Ms. Lauren
gonna be okay?

Yeah. We're all
gonna be okay, Jamie.

I promise.

Come here.

Hey. Are you okay?

I've been better.

Still no signal?

No.
I got to say...

I'm kind of down
on this rain thing right now.

Yeah.

Raining pretty hard.

Hey, if I wasn't pregnant,

we could have sex
in the backseat.

Well, now I'm kind of down
on the pregnancy thing, too.

Sorry.

Madison, sweetie,
hand me my purse.

It's in the front seat.
Okay.

The phone won't work,
and...

I don't think
Chuck's doing so well.

Chuck...

Buddy, I need you to stay awake
for me, okay?

Yeah.

Okay.

Madison,
keep trying the phone.

Hey, honey, it's me.

I'm surprised I got through.

Anyway, I think
I'm gonna crash out early

and try to stop my mind
from imagining things.

So I just wanted to say
good night

and that I can't wait
to see you.

And I love you.

Uh...

How you doing, Jame?

Okay, I guess.

How 'bout you, Lauren?

I'm okay. I think the air bag
just knocked the wind out of me.

How are the kids?

Uh, I think Chuck
has a concussion,

and you've got a really good
gash on your head.

Don't worry about me.
Just take care of them.

Is help on the way?

The phones are down,
so for now it's just us.

I really don't want
to move you,

but all things considered,
I think that we should.

Do you think you can
crawl out of here?

Um, I-I don't know.
I could try.

Okay.

I'm gonna put this
over you.

There might be
some glass.

You okay?

All right.

Jamie, I'm gonna get
Ms. Lauren out,

and then I'm coming back
for you, okay?

I'll be here.

Okay, honey,
just try to crawl to me.

Just give me your hand.
Ohh.

Brooke, it's Chuck!

Go, go, go!

Okay.

What is it, sweetie?

He won't stay awake.

Okay. Okay, you go help
Ms. Lauren, okay?

Chuck!

Hey. Hey, buddy, I need you
to stay awake for me, okay?

I can't.

I don't want to.

Okay.

Hey, guys?
Chuck needs a doctor.

I can take him.
Lauren, I don't know.

Your head's really bad.

No, no, I'm gonna be fine.
But what about Jamie?

He's stuck
in there pretty good.

It might take me some time
to get him out.

Are you sure
you can drive?

Yes, I am fine.
I promise.

Okay.
You take the kids,

and I'll stay here
with Jamie.

Just send somebody back.

All right. I will.
Okay.

Hey, Brooke.
Huh?

Be safe.

You too.

Hey.

Okay.

Are they leaving?!

It's okay, buddy.
They're gonna go get help.

Now, let's get you
out of there.

All right.

Can I help you?

Yeah.

You can help me
by getting back in the car,

you pregnant goof.

Please? I feel really bad.
This storm is terri--

oh! Oh!

This is so
"Christmas story."

Back in the car,
Ralphie.

Sorry.

Okay.

Rise and shine.

Hide and seek.

I love this game.

No!!

Aah!!

Well, well. Déjà vu.

Except for the part
with the knife in my leg!

Then again...

Bullets didn't work on you
the first time, did they?

Okay.

Knives it is.

I love this game!

Come on!

Are you serious?

I think this is
gonna work, buddy.

Ow.

Hey, whatcha got there?

My ribbon
for the spelling bee.

Second place.

You got second place?
That's awesome!

Madison got first.

She spelled
"entrepreneur" correctly.

Wow.

Second place
is still really good.

So, where were you
going anyway?

What do you mean?

When you found us.

I was just driving.

In a storm?

Easy, 20 questions.

Yes, I was driving
in a storm.

Sorry.

It's okay.

I got in a fight with Julian
over something dumb.

And I got mad because...

Because I'm stubborn
and I'm stupid sometimes.

You're not stupid.

Mm...

I was about this.

Uh...

How about you spell
some words for me?

Like...How about...

"Elusive"?

"Elusive."

E-l-

you...Are...Something.

You really think
I won't find you?

Like you think if I didn't know
you were watching me...

With your camera...

And your anger!

Where's that anger now, Quinn?!

It must be hiding
with the rest of you.

♪ It's the same thing ♪

♪ right or wrong ♪

I knew how to spell
entrepreneur.

I said "u-e,"
and I knew it was "e-u."

Did you get nervous?

No, I missed it
on purpose.

Why?

Because I wanted Madison to win
the spelling bee.

Why?

I like Madison.

I think she's pretty cool.

Yeah.

You know,
she asked about you.

She asked me
if you were okay.

What'd she say?

It's not what she said,
exactly.

It's more
how she said it.

Trust me.
Girls know these things.

So what's the first thing
you're gonna do

when you get out of here?

Tell my mom and dad
I love them.

What are you gonna do?

Tell Julian I love him.

And I love you, buddy.

Your leg's stuck
under the steering column.

No problem.

I just need a crowbar
or something.

I had a crowbar.

I put it in the car
after I got Lauren out.

We just got to find it.

Hey, best man, you want to
help me find that crowbar?

I wish.
