One Tree Hill (2003–2012): Season 8, Episode 20 - The Man Who Sailed Around His Soul - full transcript

As Nathan, Julian and Clay coach Jamie's first little league game, the situation regarding the accident comes to a head. Meanwhile, Chase asks Alex to take a drug test for him, and Quinn gets an offer to shoot in Puerto Rico.

The outlook wasn't wasn't brilliant
for the Mudville nine that day.

"The score stood four to two,

with but one inning more
to play."

"So upon that stricken
multitude grim melancholy sat,

"for there seemed
but little chance

of Casey getting to the bat."

Whoo!
Okay.

Everybody settle down,
listen up.

Coach Baker has something
he wants to say.

Uh, so I know
this is our first game,

but it's the last game
for me.



You see, Brooke and I
are moving to New York, so --

Play ball!

I know this is gonna
hurt some...

I like ginger ale.
It settles the stomach.

What's going on, Nate?

When the Wagoneer
hit Lauren's S.U.V.,

where was it coming from,
north or south?

It was coming from the south,
heading north.

We got the wrong Kellerman.

It wasn't August.

It was Ian.

But he confessed.

You said Professor Kellerman
came to the Rivercourt

and said
that he did it.

He lied.

The bottle I found
in the Wagoneer was Phidian's.

And then
tonight at the bar,

Ian ordered shots of bourbon
to toast Lydia.

Phidian's.

Said it's all he drinks.

All right. So, maybe
it's a family thing.

It doesn't really
prove anything.

There's more.

At the Rivercourt,
when Kellerman confessed,

he said he was coming from
a dinner that night in Raleigh.

So?

So, he was coming
from the south.

Raleigh's north.

All right, well, look,

don't beat yourself up
over it just yet.

I mean, you could still be wrong.
Maybe.

But if I'm right,

August Kellerman just ended
a 30-year career because of me.

Yeah.

And his son let him.

And he's our client.

So much

You played guitar.

Wasn't fair.

Oh-ho-ho!

I'm gonna go ahead and need you
to play guitar again right now.

Quickly.

Man.

Strike one!

Yeah!
Let's go, Sharks!

There we go! Nice one!
Go, Sharks!

Let's go, Sharks!

Uh...

What happened to Quinn?

Uh, she's just busy.
She'll be here.

Attaboy!
Two more just like that!

Way to go, Sharks!

Yeah, way to go, Sharks!

Baby!

Guess where I'm going?

Please don't say
South Africa.

I got an offer to shoot a job
in Puerto Rico.

We're saying
at the El Conquistador.

It's next week.
Do you want to go?

I would, but I have
training camp.

Oh. That's too bad.

I guess I'll have to do

the whole supermodel
bikini shoot without you.

Puerto Rico sounds awesome.

I mean, pfft.

Supermodels in bikinis?
Have you seen my baby?

Nice try.

Yeah.

But I do have camp.

Uh, maybe you can
invite the girls?

Haley can't go,
but Brooke and Alex.

Maybe I will.

By the way, I leave the day
after Jamie's game,

so you might want
to come straight home

because it's my last night,

and my man
is looking very sexy.

Careful, I'm sweaty.

Yes, you will be.

All right,
here we go, Sharks!

Three up, three down!
Let's go, let's go!

Moving right along!

Attaboy, Jamie!

Yes! Very nice!

Now hustle in!
Real quick! Real quick!

All right,
first up we have Chuck,

which seems like a bad idea.

Then it's Madison, Jamie,
and Daniel.

All right,
let's get some hits.

All right!
Let's go, Sharks!

Chuck! Come on, buddy.
You're up.

Whatever.

Ahh.

Oh, I meant
to tell you --

we have a game
on Friday.

Think you could come?

What time is the game?

4:00.
It's okay if you can't.

I just thought
it might be cool if you could.

Hmm.

I've got some stuff
going on,

but I'll be there.

4:00.
Wouldn't miss it.

♪ ...Changed ♪

Hello!

I have come
to offer you a trade.

Last remnants of Karen's café
for Lydia -- straight up.

Oh, I don't know.
That's tempting.

I'll throw in my car.

And my sunglasses.

Car has new tires,
but that's it.

Hmm. What do you say?

Say "no deal."

Say yes!
"No deal! I like it here!"

Sorry.

Fine. You can
have the sign anyway.

I know Karen's
meant a lot to you, too.

Oh, thank you so much.
I always wanted that.

Yeah. Hi!

I'm getting so sad today.

Why?

I was thinking about
the Rivercourt,

and now this sign.

I just feel like

it's the end of something
really good, you know?

Makes me sad.

Well, on the upside,
Lydia and I talked,

and she told me

that she wants to spend
every weekend in New York,

shopping and seeing plays...

...And hanging out with her Aunt Brooke.
Ohh.

Huh?

Yes.

I am gonna miss you,
Brooke Davis,

like you can't imagine.

Of course I can.

I'm gonna miss you
the same.

I love you.

You too.

What if I throw in
Julian's truck?

Not gonna happen.

Ahh, it's a good deal.

Tell your mommy she didn't even
have you a week ago.

Oh, no!
She didn't even have you a week ago!

Ohh!
I know!

It wasn't you.

It was Ian.

It doesn't matter.
I resigned.

To cover for your son.

Why?

Because he's my son.

But your career.

30 years,
Professor Kellerman.

Well, Mr. Kellerman now.

And you asked
why I did it,

not whether or not
he was worth it.

I haven't had a drink
since my wife died.

We're fathers, Nathan.

This is what we do
for our sons.

It just is.

Strike three!

All right,
buddy, here we go!

"It knocked upon the mountain
and recoiled upon the flat,

"for Casey, mighty Casey,
was advancing to the bat.

"There was ease
in Casey's manner

"as he stepped into his place.

"There was pride
in Casey's bearing

and a smile on Casey's face."

Strike one!

That's all right,
Jamie.

You can do it!

Make sure it's your pitch,
buddy.

Let's go, bud!
This one's yours!

There she is --
Alex Dupré.

I want you
to meet someone.

Oh.
You must be Chuck.

I've heard
a lot about you.

And you're Alex.

I saw pictures of you
on the Internet.

Naughty, naughty.
Hey!

So are you guys,
like, doing stuff?

What kind of stuff?

You mean like
going to the movies,

talking on the phone,
and holding hands?

'Cause we totally
do that kind of stuff.

Gross.

Or maybe awesome.

I don't know.
I got to go to the bathroom.

I told you
about that root beer.

Don't make me tell Alex
about the camping trip.

Shut up!

Stinking drag-leg Laura!

What?

Sorry.

No, it's okay.
He's cute.

Kind of.

So, what's up?

I need a favor.

You ever
taken a drug test?

Why, are you taking one?

Have you?

Dude, if they drug-tested me,
I would never work again.

I'm kidding.

I know everything there is
to know about drug tests.

Ask me anything.

All right.

How long does it take
for a couple hits off a joint

to clear your system?

When did you get high?

Um, I didn't, really.
Not on purpose.

You remember
the Kid Cudi show?

♪ Town ♪

More beers for you guys.

Have a good show.

No one leaves
without hitting this.

Is he serious?

Yeah.

That's amazing.

How long?

I don't know. I mean,
it's different for everyone.

Can you risk it?

No. I need a favor.

Huh?

Quinn?
Hey, Quinn!

Holy cow.

Don't say cow.

I want
to go to Puerto Rico.

I mean it. Forget
about training camp.

Puerto Rico is absolutely
the only place

I can possibly be
this weekend.

You're sweet,
and I love you.

Maybe on our date
after Jamie's game,

I can wear this
in the hot tub.

Or...

...Not wear it.

I saw him as Dan.

I thought Ian Kellerman
was like me

and his father
was like Dan.

I guess
I'm still not past it.

Your father.

Yeah.

I'll never be able to understand
or accept what he did,

so I guess
I just...avoid it.

Because if I don't avoid it,
what's left is so dark.

It's like...

It's like Lydia growing up

and someday standing
a few feet from Jamie

and taking his life.

And that's impossible and horrible...
Mm.

...And that's exactly
what my father did.

And then I feel guilty...

For keeping Jamie
from seeing his grandfather

and for making it
to the NBA

and knowing that I never could
have done it without my father.

And for letting him live alone
and die alone

because that's what
I have to do.

Maybe you should just
go to that diner

and tell Dan everything that
you're thinking and feeling --

all of it.

You think
he deserves that?

No.

But I think
you deserve it.

Hey, didn't you already
work out today?

Yep.
I'm doing two-a-days.

Oh. You're worried about
being around all those models.

Mm, actually,
that's not it.

I'm worried about
security at the airport.

I got to look good

Hello?

Hi, Mr. Adams.
I'm calling from the clinic.

We need you to come back in
and retest as soon as you can.

Why?
Is there, uh, a problem?

Yes.

Actually,
it looks like the lab

had a mix-up
with your urine sample.

Okay. Are you sure?

Well, unless you're pregnant,
we're pretty sure.

Yay, Madison!

Let's go, Sharks!

Dude,
what happened to Quinn?

Uh, she had a few last-minute
things to take car of.

I think she wanted
to get a spray tan.

She'll be here.
Nice one, Madison!

Way to go!

I'd like
the panther, please.

Actually, the panther
is our darkest shade.

I really wouldn't
recommend that for you.

Oh, that's okay.
I'll be fine.

Just one panther, please.

Okay.

She'll be here.

But you know
who won't be here?

Ian.

We got to talk to Ian.

I know. I'll do it.

It'd probably be better
if I talk to him.

Why?

'Cause you're bad cop
and I'm good cop.

Why am I bad cop?

Real-- it -- okay.

Might be the, uh,
the bar fights,

the shouting matches
in public,

the murderous father.

Weak.

Maybe Julian
should talk to him.

Why not me?

Because you're not good cop.

You're more like
officer friendly.

Julian nearly lost Brooke.

He should talk to him,
if he wants to.

Where we going, anyway?

Just taking
a little drive.

"They saw his face
grow stern and cold,

they saw his muscles strain."

"And they knew that Casey

wouldn't let that ball
go by again."

Strike three.

You're out.

All right, this is it.

We need one run to tie,
two to win.

I say we win it right here.
No extra innings.

No extra innings.
Definitely no extra innings.

Now, you all know
I'm moving to New York

my only game.

I mean,
he's just a kid.

I was so sure

I couldn't see you
any other way.

Well...

Then that makes us even.

I was so sure
you were like my son

that I couldn't see you

you turned out to be.

"A" student?

Really?

"A" minus.

I understand you're no longer
representing my son.

That's right.

Admit it --
when I asked you not to,

you thought it was because

I felt you weren't
good enough for him.

But maybe I thought he wasn't
good enough for you

and that agency you have
with your partner, the Muppet.

Clay Evans.

Fortitude.

Integrity
as a mission statement.

Not bad.

I promised my wife, Catherine,
I'd do this someday --

sail off to nowhere.

No lectures,
no papers, no clocks.

Actually, I promised her
we'd do it together.

Time gets away
from you.

You know, I don't speak
with my father.

Sometimes I feel guilty
about that,

but I know in my heart
that's the way it has to be.

So, one of these nights,

when you find your corner of
heaven or your sliver of peace

and you're feeling guilty

about the distance
between you and your son...

I don't know.

Maybe it just...helps to know
that you're not the only one

going through
something like that.

Well, there's no time
like now

to start
the rest of your life.

um, Mr. Kellerman.

But listen, there's something
I forgot to tell you about today

that I should have.

It's just a game, okay?

Grandpa Dan always
used to make me feel

like it was life or death,
but it's not.

Now, you got a couple
good strikes coming,

we're good.

All right?

Okay, coach, let's go.
All right.

Go get 'em, Jamie Scott.

Okay.

Hey, handsome.

Hi.

I turned down the job.
In New York? Why?

When I was living there
and running Clothes Over Bros,

my office looked out
on this building nearby,

and on the rooftop
was a playground

where all the grade-school kids
would have recess.

And some days
when things were crazy --

which was most days --

I'd look out, and I'd watch
those kids run around,

and I'd think,
"that's no way to play."

I mean, I love New York,

but living in constant fear

of losing the kickball over
the roof of your playground

is kind of a rough way
to grow up.

So you turned down
the job

because the schools
have playgrounds on the roof?

I turned down the job
because I don't want our child

to have a playground
on the roof.

Unless it's the roof of my store
here in Tree Hill.

Tree Hill...
Okay, you're losing me.

Chase had to take
a drug test,

but a guy in Kid Cudi's posse
made him take a hit of a joint,

so he asked Alex to pee in a cup
for him because she's sober.

Except Alex
isn't really sober

because she accidentally ate
some of Quinn's pot brownies,

so Alex came over
to ask you,

because her and Chase
are getting closer,

and she wanted to be the one
to help him,

but you weren't home,
so Alex asked me.

And the lab called Chase
and said that he's pregnant.

What?

So Chase told Alex,

and Alex told me,

and I took
a pregnancy test.

We're pregnant.

Baby!

I knew you could do it.

All right, come on, Jamie!
You can do it, son!

That somewhere is right here.

Because Casey
might have struck out,

but Casey's last name
wasn't "Scott."
