The Fosters (2013–2018): Season 2, Episode 7 - The Longest Day - full transcript

Previously on The Fosters...

Her name's Sophia. That's my half sister.

Can we hang out again?

- You told Emma about Hayley?
- Yes,

why would you tell Hayley
you're a couple, and not Emma?

That's none of your business.

This is about you trying to
be like all those other girls.

- Are you OK?
- Not really, no.

I ate a pot brownie, and I'm freaking out.

It's OK. You made a mistake.

- I slept with Dani.
- Dani?



I haven't told you. I was raped.

I thought I put it behind me,

but it turns out I still have some stuff

I have to work through.

Take as long as you need.

Is Lena gonna be OK?

Yeah, now, but she lost the baby.

Sometimes I'm afraid that
they're not gonna love me

as much as I love them.

Biology or not,

everybody's afraid that our children

won't love us the way we love them.

What's taking so freaking
long? Did you fall in?

- I'm about to leak.
- Go downstairs.



Jude's in the bathroom don't
want me to come with you?

'Cause I, I don't mind.

No, I know.

I think it's better if
it's just me and Jude.

I want him to get to know Sophia,

so he doesn't feel so,
you know, threatened.

And I don't think he's gonna
do that if you're there.

OK.

And have you decided about
what you're gonna tell Robert

- about the college fund?
- I'm going to say thanks,

but I don't want anything from you,

and that includes your money.

- You do know how to swim, yes?
- Yes.

Mom, Mariana's way past her time.

Well, you're old enough to work it out.

I'm not getting involved.

Let's go, your 15 minutes
was up like 15 minutes ago.

What the... ?

Fine, I'll finish in my bedroom.

Don't say I never did anything for you.

Thank you, you're a real saint.

Ooh, quite the fashion statement, Judicorn.

Have you seen my other flip-flop?

Nope, sorry.

Uh, no flip-flops, Jude.

- Sneakers?
- Sneakers.

All right, everybody,
taxi leaves in two minutes.

Let's hop to it.

Jesus, Mariana, Callie, Jude. Let's go!

- I just need to get my...
- Gym bag?

Took the liberty of
washing your wrestling gear.

Lesson learned: You can't just
let that stuff rot in there.

Yeah, OK.

Yo! Go! Now! Come on,
one, two, three, four!

All right, I'll see you
later. Where's, um, Brandon?

What's he up to?

Oh, I think he's still
sleeping. I'll check on him.

OK, maybe give him a little incentive

to get out of the house?

You and I could use a
quiet afternoon at home,

just the two of us.

OK?

- Thank you, I love you.
- Love you.

Good morning.

Hey, morning.

How you feeling?

Oh, as good as could be expected, I guess.

You?

So you got any plans for the day?

Um, no, probably just
gonna work on some music.

That's about it.

Well, the kids are all out of the house.

So I think it's time.

We need to tell.

Good shove.

Good defense! Wedge her! Wedge her!

Watch it! Watch it!

Break!

Match to Jesus. Hey, great footwork.

And Emma, nice escape, but
you lost focus. It cost you.

Right, got it.

All right, let's clear the mats.

And the ladder, I'll see you all tonight.

All right?

Nice match.

That's it?

What? What do you want, Jesus?

I don't know. I just...
I just want us to be cool.

I am such an idiot.

I was stupid enough to think

the first words out of your
mouth would be "I'm sorry."

I am sorry.

I should have never let
Mariana open her big mouth

about me and Hayley.

But don't forget, you broke up with me.

And you waited like five
seconds to replace me.

Makes me feel like a real winner, Foster.

How was I supposed to know you
wanted to get back together?

I'm not doing this anymore.

Everything's cool, OK?

We never should've
dated in the first place,

I mean, if Hayley's what you want, well,

I think we both know
she's everything I'm not,

and nothing that I want to be.

But I do think it's time
that you find a new tutor.

Hey! You're here early.

What was that all about?

Some team stuff.

Hmm.

You OK?

We are so happy you guys could make it.

Soph's been talking about it for days.

- Dad, shut up.
- Sophia.

Sorry.

I'm just... so excited
to finally meet you, Jude.

And for you to finally meet our dad.

I mean...

Yeah, Jude and I already have a dad.

His name's Donald.

Right. Yeah, I know.

Sophia, why don't you
come help me put out lunch?

You guys really do look
alike, even more in person.

You think?

I guess, a little.

So which side is port?

Uh... this one.

Why don't you just say "left?"

Well, you don't want there
to the opposite direction,

or if something goes wrong.

Come on.

Lena, I'm home!

I'm in the living room.

- Hi.
- Hey, honey.

What's going on?

You expecting someone?

- Hey.
- Hi, what's up?

Lena called, said you wanted to talk?

I do?

What's going on, love?

Is this about the surgery?
You changed your mind?

No, this isn't about his hand.

Uh, Brandon has something
something important,

and I'd like everyone to promise
that no one leaves this house

until we all agree how
to handle this together,

OK.

OK, so... what's with the buildup?

What are we talking about?

It's about Dani.

I knew it.

I knew you had a problem with her, Brandon.

No, no, it's...

B?

This is hard for him to
say, just give him a minute.

Brandon, please, tell me that
this isn't what I'm thinking.

What are you thinking?

Brandon, what happened?

- Did Dani do something?
- Excuse me?

Brandon was in a vulnerable position...

No, no, no.

I want to hear it from him.

Um...

the night you kicked Dani out of the house,

she came back to get her stuff,

and I...

... I had a few beers.

And my audition for
symphony was the next day,

so she, uh...

told me to go to bed, sleep it off,

so she helped me undress...

... and...

... and it just sort of happened.

What happened?

We had sex.

What the hell do you mean, you had sex?

Obviously he was seduced.

No, I was... I was drunk,
and I wasn't thinking.

It's my fault.

Drunk? You were drunk? Did
Dani give you the booze?

No, no, I was upset and...

Oh, my God, I can't believe you
did not break up with that woman

when you had the chance.

You knew that she could not be trusted,

- but you are so pathetic!
- So this is my fault?

I didn't say that it was your
fault, but I'm just saying...

That was exactly what you said.

You said that I didn't break up with her.

I can't believe that
I let you have custody.

God, I never should have told you.

- Brandon!
- Brandon!

- Brandon! I'm so...
- Let him go.

What the hell is wrong with you guys?

Stef, why are you acting
like this is Mike's fault?

And Mike, I know that you are hurt

and this is confusing as hell,

but can't you see what
this is doing to your son?

Hey, I'm taking off.

Am I seeing you tonight?

Oh, no, remember?

I have that dinner at Coach's house.

- Dinner?
- I told you.

The one where he gives out
all the goofy awards and stuff?

And somebody is getting
"Most Improved," right?

That's the rumor.

Is Emma gonna be there?

This is a team dinner,
and she's on the team.

OK, let's go!

- Call me later?
- Promise.

Competition season starts this month,

and we are not losing this year.

We need to talk dollars.

Our first competition is in L.A.,

and the truth is, we don't have
enough money for everyone to go.

We don't?

At least one of us, and
maybe even two, can't go.

Well, what if we have like
a car wash or something?

We're not allowed, remember?

Clubs and teams can't do
any "extra" fundraising.

So, if you're planning
on holding anything back

in rehearsal today... don't.

All right, let's get started.

Hayley, you lead the warm-up.

Callie, you wanna try?

- No?
- Mm-mm, no.

Jude, how about you?

Come one! Get in here!

What are you gonna hit, an iceberg?

Get up there.

There you go.

Feels good, right? Steering the ship?

Oh, look out! I'm kidding.

I was kidding. I was kidding, relax.

How do you know where you're going?

Oh, I have this GPS right here.

Have you ever gotten lost?

Ah, once, yeah, when I was sailing.

Really?

Yeah, I got lost in
some really rough water,

but actually between us,
it was pretty awesome.

Sounds pretty terrible.

No, no, it was an adventure.

I mean, was I scared? Yeah, I was.

But, you know, sometimes
you just have to let go,

give up control, turn it over to the stars.

You know?

Hey, Jude...

Listen, I know learning
that Callie had this

whole "other family" has been crazy,

but I don't want you to be scared.

I'm not gonna lie to you,
I wanna get to know Callie.

And you, too, if you're open to it.

But I'm never gonna try
and replace your father.

And no matter what, you
and Callie still share that,

OK? And you always will.

Hey, back row?

Try and land that floor work clean, please?

You look like you're having a seizure.

Ignore her, she's just stressed.

OK, let's take it from the
top of the second section.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Mariana, can you come here, please?

Tia, can you show her how
to do the floor work, please?

That is how you do it.

If you can't lay it like that,

then you're not going to competition.

OK, take five. And
"five" means five, people.

Hey, look, it just takes
time. OK, you'll get it.

I don't want to get cut from the team.

Well, I mean, I happy to...
you know, work on it with you.

If you want.

Yeah?

OK, so it's...

it's just drag, hands,
sweep it to the floor.

OK, but you gotta trust. OK, try it.

No, see, you gotta go for it.

OK, you're holding yourself back.

I don't know. I guess...

... all the contemporary and the
hip-hop we've been doing lately

doesn't come as natural to me.

- Excuse me?
- You know what I mean.

Uh, no, I'm afraid I don't.
Do you care to explain?

Well, I mean, you're just so good,

you make the rest of us look bad.

Well, there's nothing I can do about that.

Well, I mean, you could try to blend in.

This is a dance team, you know?

What? Should I dye my hair?

You know what?

Um, why don't you just
work it out on your own.

Good luck.

B?

I'm glad you told us.

I'm not.

You understand that Dani was
the adult in this situation.

- And that you're a minor.
- Yes.

And that means that what
happened was illegal.

- Mom...
- You're the victim here.

I'm not a victim.

Honey, I handle a lot of these cases,

and it is common that the boys
don't think they've been raped.

The difference is that
I'm not one of your cases.

I was there. I know what I did.

And I'd appreciate it
if you'd stop telling me

how I should feel about it.

I get that you might not
see it this way now...

... but Dani broke the law
and she needs to be prosecuted.

Well, I'm not gonna cooperate.

I'll say you're lying or that I made it up.

This is... completely humiliating.

I'm not telling the police,
and you can't make me.

- I love your jeans.
- Oh, thanks.

I wanna get some like those, Mom.

OK, we'll see what we can find.

So, tell me about your school. It's
so cool you guys are by the beach.

Archfield's so... uptight.

Uptight? What does that mean?

You know, the uniforms
and rules and everything.

It's a lot.

Well, yeah, even though it's on the beach,

it's not really a day at one.

It's actually pretty tough,

definitely the hardest
school I've ever been to.

I've been to a lot, you know?

How many?

Um, seven, I guess, all together.

Wow, I feel like such a nerd right now.

I've only been to one
school my entire life.

- But you love Archfield.
- Not really.

- Since when?
- Since forever.

Well, I think Archfield sounds really cool.

Why?

I don't know. You were talking about

the trips you guys go on every year?

- Where'd you go last fall?
- Barcelona?

Right, Barcelona. We're not
doing that at Anchor Beach.

Well, all we did was walk around the street

and go to museums and stuff.

What about all those
beautiful photographs you took?

You take pictures?

Me, too.

Still, I think you're really lucky.

I'd love to go to Spain.

It seems so cool and artsy and romantic.

It might be. There weren't any boys.

Archfield's all girls.

And we're a little
young for romance anyway.

You know, Callie has a boyfriend.

Really?

His name's Wyatt. He's super hot.

Um, yeah, we're just taking
a little break right now.

How come?

Callie, you gotta come see the engine room.

It's crazy. It's like something
out of The Golden Compass.

Cool. Excuse me.

I understand you're
trying to impress Callie,

but being rude to your mother
is not the way to do it.

B never liked Dani.

Maybe... maybe he's
trying to get rid of her.

You know? I mean, he could be lying.

He's not lying, Mike.

Where are you going? Mike?

I just want to talk to her.

I just wanna find out what
she has to say for herself.

Mike, you promised that you would stay here

and figure this out with us together.

So Brandon won't... he doesn't
want us to press charges.

Well, that's not really surprising, is it?

Wait, wait, wait. Press charges for what?

For statutory rape.

You think Brandon was raped?

You think Dani raped Brandon?

Mike, you... you know the definition...

- of statutory rape.
- Come on, Stef! He knew what he was doing.

- So, he's not an adult.
- He's 16!

Trust me, Dani didn't force him.

I know how a 16-year-old boy thinks.

- That is not the issue here.
- I can't... I can't...

Mike. Mike! You promised.

I need a minute. I'll be out back.

So was your mom bummed when she
was passed over for principal?

No, um, it was for the best.

I mean, she already has a lot on her plate.

Um, wait, Lena's your mom?

- Lena the vice-principal?
- Yeah, I'm adopted.

Oh, um, nice.

You're lucky. I wish I was adopted.

But what about your real parents?

I mean, do you know anything about them?

Stef and Lena are my real parents.

Right. Sorry, but you know what I mean.

No, it was a closed adoption.

I don't know anything about them.

That would drive me crazy
wondering who they are.

Yeah, don't you want to find them?

You know, at least to
see if you look like them?

Um, you know what I was thinking about?

How we don't have any
money for the competition.

Let me talk to my mom
and see what I can do.

I mean, the new principal
hasn't started yet,

she's still in charge, right?

I think... I think I'm gonna stay here.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I feel a little seasick.

You guys go ahead.

We're just going to the
ship's store across the marina.

I'll keep him occupied.

Yeah, great. Come on, let's go.

Well, we won't be long, I promise.

All right. Callie, you wanna drive?

- Yeah!
- All right.

Turn the key.

- All right?
- Yeah, go back.

Oops! A little bit. Just a little bit.

- Perfect.
- OK.

Nice.

I'm in neutral, right?

Yeah, now turn it around
to the right a little bit.

There you go. OK, that's cool.

- And forward?
- Yeah.

There you go, looking good.

Nice and slow.

Put it in reverse.

Just for a second. There you go. Perfect.

Ah, there we go. All right.

OK.

- Tie it on for us.
- Here we go.

Look at that, huh? She's a natural.

All right!

All right.

- I'm gonna get a few things.
- OK.

I'll be back in a flash,
and don't rock the boat.

He is such a nerd.

He seems like a good dad.

Yeah, he is.

You know, it must be weird for you,

just being here.

Kind of like seeing what
would have happened if

our dad would have stayed with your mom.

Well, kinda, yeah.

But, you know, everything
happens for a reason.

If you think about it,

if your dad would have stayed with my mom,

there'd be no Jude.

And there'd be no you.

Yeah, might not be such a bad thing.

Sounds like you and Callie
found a wonderful home.

Yeah, I mean, we didn't
grow up together but...

the Fosters really feel like
our brothers and sisters.

- And Callie's happy?
- Yeah.

As happy as Callie can be, anyway.

So, um, why did she run away?

She thought they might not
want to adopt both of us.

Why did she think that?

I don't know.

I mean, it's not true, right?

They still want to adopt her, right?

Oh, yeah. Totally.

They're just... waiting on you guys.

Why not?

Because those are the rules, Mariana.

People were taking advantage

and using things like
bake sales and car washes

to funnel a ton of money
into their own kids' programs,

and the parent board
decided that it wasn't fair.

But can't you, like, bend
the rules, just this once?

I mean, aren't you the acting principal?

But how would that look if
I start making exceptions

for my own kids?

The answer is no. Period.

- Fine, thanks for nothing.
- You're welcome.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you doing at school on a Saturday?

Band practice.

"Someone's Little Sister"?

No, uh, the other one. Nerd band.

You?

- Dance team.
- How was it?

Well, um, we have competitions
coming up in a couple weeks,

so Kaitlyn is on a rampage.

And we don't have enough money
for everyone to go to L.A.,

so I asked my mom if she
would help us raise some money

but she said no... and I
just... I love being on the team,

I just feel like they're gonna cut me...

Hey, whoa. Slow down.

Why are you looking for a backup plan?

What does that have to do with dancing?

I'm not as good as everyone else is.

So work harder.

But I'm never going to
be as good as they are.

Well, not as long as you
believe that you're not.

Why are you always up in my grill?

"Up in your grill?"

How about I tell you this Friday night?

Hmm, sounds fun. A movie and a lecture.

Yeah, how about we don't.

Uh, so, no movie then?

I can't believe that Mike thinks that

Dani is gonna have some
miraculous explanation for this,

some "side" that he needs to hear.

- Stef.
- What?

You're acting like Mike is to blame here.

Do you honestly think, if he had
any inkling this was going to happen,

that he would've have asked her to move in?

Can you imagine how humiliated he must be.

I can only imagine how
many red flags he ignored.

He has terrible taste in women.

- He married a lesbian.
- And you married a man.

We all have our blind spots, Stef.

Just don't be so hard on him.

There's only one person here to
be angry with, and that's Dani.

I'm... you think that I'm hard on him?

- Stef.
- What?

The only person in the world

you're harder on than Mike is yourself.

Any time the kids make a mistake or, hell,

anyone you love makes a mistake,

you take it all personally,
like you failed us,

like you think you should've
been able to protect us

from ourselves somehow.

And I think that that extends to Mike.

But with Mike, it's even worse,

because on top of everything
else, you feel guilty.

About?

About leaving, about hurting him.

Well, don't I sound like an ass.

You're not an ass, honey,
not even a little bit.

You just... love hard.

- That's a good thing.
- But that's why Brandon came

to you about this, right?

Because I'm so hard on everyone?

Hey, what are you still doing here?

Practicing.

Yeah, like you need to practice.

Look, I know...

I know you think these
moves come to me naturally

because I'm black but...

I'm just kidding.

Look, I'm sorry about earlier.

So could I...

Would you... help me?

Yeah.

Let's do this.

Right, let's do this.

Are you OK?

- No.
- Me neither.

At least we agree on that.

I still don't understand
how this could happen.

How I could let it happen.

But you're right about one
thing, this is my fault.

It's not... it's not your fault, Mike.

I love you, Mike, I do,

and I'm really sorry that
I've been so hard on you.

It's a...

Thanks but it wasn't exactly
easy being married to me.

The problems in our marriage
were not all your fault.

I wasn't exactly Mrs. Brady.

You had her hair, remember?

Right after we got married, the mullet?

Oh, I beg your pardon,
that was not a mullet,

that was a blunt, layered flip.

Yeah, you keep telling yourself that,

but I have photographic evidence.

I don't blame you for the divorce, Stef.

And we can't blame Brandon
for what happened with Dani.

He made some bad decisions,
like drinking for one.

I hope to God I didn't pass that on to him.

But he's sixteen.

What if this were Mariana?

She's almost sixteen.

What if she "agreed" to have
sex with a teacher at school?

Would you blame her?

- I mean, what would you do?
- I'd lock him up.

So why is Brandon any different?

Hey Jude!

Get her to show you a sheet
bend, she needs the practice.

Mm.

I took those the summer we met.

I can't believe you held onto them.

So... Stef told me that
you had some concerns

about accepting the college fund.

You don't need to feel guilty, OK?

I don't need a consolation
prize or a parting gift.

I have my own plan.

That's why I'm working,
to save up for college.

Well, that's great.

It's great but, you know,
it's hard to work and study.

And it's gonna take you years
to save up for a semester.

Your mother would have
wanted you to go to college.

You know, she was always talking about...

finishing her degree.

Do you know if she ever went back?

Uh, she took a couple night classes.

Don't you think she
would've wanted this for you?

Let me do this. Please, Callie, for her.

I owe her that much.

At least to help make her
dreams for you come true.

Can I keep this one?

You can keep any one you want.

I'm sorta jealous you knew her then,

when she was young and had
her whole life ahead of her.

Yeah.

It must've been hard to lose her so young.

Thank you.

For being so welcoming with Jude.

And... for the college fund.

I'd be stupid to turn that down, right?

I think it's time we took the kids home.

Yeah, OK. I'll get Jude.

Thanks for coming, it
was a really nice day.

Tommy's here. See you later, Moms!

Don't be out late!

Hey, what's going on?

It's my parents.

What's wrong? Is everything OK?

They're getting a divorce.

I'm so, so sorry.

I just don't want to be alone tonight.

Um...

You know I have that, um, team dinner.

Oh, I forgot. I'm sorry.

Of course I can't ask you to skip it.

I'll be OK.

Wait, wait, wait. I'll come with you.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Just tell the guys that they
don't have to come pick me up.

Thanks.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

I'm so sorry.

I wish I could take it back.

Or at least tell you why I did it.

I want you to be very careful
when it comes to drinking, Brandon.

I don't want you ending up like me.

God knows, I've made a lot of bad decisions

when I've been drunk.

Dad, I know how excited
you were to start over...

... how much you wanted
to make a life with Dani.

And I ruined it.

No, Brandon, Dani's the adult.

She had the responsibility to stop it,

no matter how it started.

And you might not feel this way,
but what she did was illegal.

And we have to do something about it.

- Jesus, come in here.
- Hey.

So, how'd it go? The wrestling thing?

Did you win "Most Improved"?

- I didn't even go.
- What? Why?

Hayley stopped by. She was a total mess.

Her parents are getting divorced.

- Well, she was really upset.
- About what?

About the fact that her
parents are getting divorced.

Why are you being so mean?

Hayley's known about this for months.

No, no. Well, it seemed
like they just told her.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, I'm sure.

_

- Hey.
- Hey.

How was the boat?

Um, it was pretty fun.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

How was your day?

Long.

So... moment of truth.

What'd you think?

To be honest...

I wish you'd never found out about them.

Well, thank you for telling me.

That wasn't that hard, was it?

Yeah, I don't have to see them again...

Wait, I'm not done.

I wish you never found out about them,

but that's not gonna change anything.

It sucks that I have to share you.

But I guess if I learned how
to do it with the Fosters,

then I can do it with Sophia, too.

And... Robert and Jill,

they seem pretty nice.

- So did you have fun today?
- It's the best day ever.

You know, I wish we could adopt Callie.

Well, technically, we
wouldn't have to adopt her,

but she's already got a
family. A family that loves her.

Yeah, I know. But she's only
been with them for a few months.

Maybe if she knew us longer,
she could learn to love us, too.

Danielle Kirkland?
