The Fosters (2013–2018): Season 5, Episode 8 - Engaged - full transcript

Brandon throws a party which turns south when secrets are revealed. Mariana and Jude try to convince the students to vote against their school going private.

Previously, on The Fosters...

If you still think about Gabe,

he still thinks about you.

How do you know that?

He said that you were the only
woman that he's ever loved.

I have something for you.

I wanted to give it to
you as a promise ring.

He gave her a ring.

LENA: A ring? An engagement ring?

We just got an invite
from Eminent Power.

They want us to be, like,
ambassadors for them.



WADE (OVER PHONE): We already
have plenty of girl gamers.

We're just looking for some gay-mers...

you know, G-A-Y-mers.

You should, uh, throw your
dad's engagement party here.

- Really?
- Yeah.

SEAN: If our university will
not block Shiloh McCullen

from spewing her hateful
speech, then we will.

Are you saying there's a
chance we could get arrested?

Getting arrested is the goal.

- Under the Sea?
- Masquerade?

- Ooh.
- JESUS: Mardi Gras?

Okay, you all have a very
low opinions of prom committee

if you think we're that unoriginal.

Take it easy.



I remember the theme of my prom.

It was "Right Here, Right Now."

The Jesus Jones's song.

Nobody?

Wow, I'm old.

Anyway, we moved prom up this year,

so we don't have to compete for venues,

but now we're way behind.

So I was hoping my lovely
family could pitch in.

- (MOCKING LAUGHTER)
- Anyone?

Can I even go to prom?

I'm probably not gonna go.

Aaron's in college.

- Yeah, same here.
- LENA: Hey, I'm home!

Wait, you have to go. You're seniors.

This could be ABCC's last prom ever.

(GASPS) That is a good theme.

"The Last Dance."

Well, I wouldn't count on that.

Because Monte and I just
met with a board member

and it took some convincing, but...

she offered to give her
vote to the students.

- STEF: Wow!
- That's amazing!

The students are 1,000 percent
gonna vote against going private.

Hopefully, we are one vote
closer to saving Anchor Beach.

Uh, so now that you both are here,
I know this is kind of last minute,

but Mike and Ana's engagement party

has to be this weekend.

Uh, uh, that's awfully fast.

- BRANDON: Well, the wedding's in a month.
- STEF: What's the rush?

I guess AJ's turning 18 and
he's moving into Ana's apartment,

so Ana's moving in with Dad,

and the Gutierrezes would
prefer they aren't, like,

living in sin.

And this is the only weekend
that works for everyone.

So, Mom, could you help
me run some errands?

Oh, no, that is your deal, Brandon.

Yeah, we'll help on the
day, but you're the best man.

Uh, can Emma come?

Come on, it's been a week.
So I can see her, right?

Honey, it's a family party,

so no girlfriends or boyfriends.

(SCOFFS) Uh, Emma's
not just my girlfiend.

Right. She's your fiancée.

- STEF: Mariana.
- I'm done.

Hey, could you please ask to be excused?

Yeah. Can I be excused?

- Yes, you may.
- Thanks.

Is he ever gonna be normal again?

Mmm. Thanks for the food.

Yeah, it would have gone bad anyway.

So, we're having a party on
Saturday for Mike and Ana.

I know. Ana invited me.

Yeah. Well, you gonna go?

I don't think Mike would want me there.

I know her parents won't.

But they wrote you the letter

to get you off the sex offender list.

It will get awkward, trust me.

Why? Because you still love her?

- I never said that.
- Yeah, you did.

You said that she's the only
woman that you've ever loved.

Okay, but she's marrying Mike, so...

Because she doesn't know
how you feel about her.

- Maybe, I...
- Well, neither do I.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't
make a difference, anyway.

They're getting married in a month.

So, just...

if you figure it out...

don't wait until it's too late.

How long are we gonna let
Jesus think that he's engaged?

I mean, I say we go in there right now

and tell him that he's
not getting married,

and he is going back to
school or I will arrest him.

That's not gonna work,
trust me. I've seen it.

The more we demand, the
more defiant he gets.

Besides, does it matter
what the motivation is

if it gets him back to school?

Well, what does Emma
think about all this?

Well, you said yourself she's
got a good head on her shoulders.

And for all we know, with Jesus's TBI,

this whole thing could be in his head.

I seriously doubt she
agreed to marry him.

Well, I think that we should find out.

(EXHALES)

MARIANA: Save Anchor Beach.

Protect our public charter.

Anchor Beach Academy is fascist.

So, have you talked to your moms?

Um, yeah.

They're letting me play as
long as my grades don't slip

and I put some of the
money away for college.

Well, then, we're good to go.

Have you heard back from Eminent Power?

When do we start?

Um, no, no. I haven't yet.

Keep Anchor Beach free.

Do you think Noah's gonna be okay

with you playing video games every day?

Guys, stay focused.

Hey! Don't be fooled by empty promises.

Can we count on your vote?

I don't know. Have you seen the model?

What model?

- JUDE: Holy...
- MARIANA: Crap.

- BOY: So legit.
- GIRL: Right?

BOY: Seriously?

(CLEARS THROAT) You wanted to see me?

Oh, Emma, hi.

How are you?

Fine. Is... everything okay?

Yes, everything is fine.

Um...

We just wanted to let you know

why you haven't been
allowed at the house.

I... I get it. I told him he
shouldn't have gone to that party.

Well, we didn't want you to think
it had anything to do with you.

And we are so grateful for how
supportive you've been of Jesus

and his recovery.

And thank you for convincing
him to come back to school.

Honestly...

we don't know what he'd do without you.

I... I'm happy to help.

Whatever it takes.

We're very happy you've
chosen to apply to UCSD.

And your essay really set you apart.

I had no idea how
vulnerable foster youth are

when they age out of the system.

Most people don't.

Well, I see you're
interested in the art school,

but can I be perfectly frank?

Sure.

I think you'd have a better chance
of getting into the university,

if you chose a less competitive major.

I mean, based on your background,

and the fact that your
portfolio isn't finished,

I think you'd have better
luck if you applied for, say,

Social Work, or Psychology.

Just... give it some thought.

Callie? Callie!

- Hi.
- Hey.

- Are you...
- Interviewing? Yeah.

For the art school.

Wait. You're not mad?

Why would I be mad?

I've got to live-stream two
hours a day, six days a week.

Yeah, for money.

Okay, it's a totally different thing.

This is a job.

Taylor must be psyched.

Now she gets you every day.

Yeah.

They only wanted me.

Oh! Damn.

I...

How did she take that?

She doesn't know.

I don't know how to tell her.

Okay. Um...

Look, all you gotta do

is tell her that you
really want to do it

and that it's a great opportunity,

but you won't do it if
she doesn't want you to.

What if she doesn't want me to?

Look, she'll be glad that you offered,

but she'll feel too guilty and
she'll tell you to go ahead.

Trust me.

Look, it works on my mom every time.

I had no idea you were doing
anything other than comic book stuff.

Why would you?

But, yeah, I decided I wanted
to try some different things,

show the schools a wider range.

CALLIE: It's all really amazing.

Thank you.

So, what major are you applying for?

Um...

Social Work, I think.

Cool. You'd be great at that.

MAN: AJ Hensdale?

Good luck.

Thank you.

Oh. I'll see you at the party?

Um...

- Mike and Ana's?
- Right.

Yeah.

Chips, salsa, pizza, cookies.

Is this a birthday party
for a five-year-old?

All you need is a clown.

That's what I'm saying. I mean,
I don't know how to throw a party.

- Yeah.
- And I want it to be, you know, nice.

- All right, let me help you.
- Thank you.

It's just, Mariana's part of
the prom planning committee,

and... I mean, I'm sure
you don't want to go.

Well, of course I want to go.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Homeschooled. Never had a prom.

But, I mean, if we go,
we have to do it right.

I want the whole dress
and corsage, and...

You know, you can ask
me when you're ready.

Well, I... thought I just did.

Yeah. Whenever you're ready.

Uh, okay. Well, Grace,
would you want to go

Take your time. Whenever you're ready.

Or into the law program I'm in.

I mean, you'd be amazing.

Um, speaking of,

(CELL PHONE CHIMES)

(SIGHS)

I guess the protest is on.

I, uh, won't tell you to be careful.

Well, I appreciate that.

- Hm.
- Hm.

I'm so pissed off. I mean, you
should see this stupid model.

It's a total fantasy. I can't
believe people are dumb enough

to actually fall for it.

- CALLIE: You all right?
- Yeah, sorry.

Just a rough few days.

What's going on?

It's just my dad.

He's trying to update our family plan.

Like for cell phones?

Like if, uh, any of us get deported.

Oh.

You know, we've had
this plan for years now.

But...

with the current political situation,

he's putting everything in my name.

And I'm gonna be Poppy's
legal guardian now,

if, you know, if
anything happens to them.

And they already told us,

no matter what,

they want us to stay here without them.

That's awful.

It's so messed up

that they're tearing
families apart like this.

Plotting to overthrow the world, are we?

If that's what it takes.

So, Emma is not wearing the ring.

I called her into my office today

just to check in, and, you know,

thank her for supporting Jesus.

Well, did you happen to
ask if they were engaged?

I didn't want to embarrass her.

But she seemed perfectly fine,

and everything between her
and Jesus seems status quo.

I really just think this
engagement thing is all in his head.

All right, good.

Oh, also, I invited her to
Mike and Ana's party tomorrow.

- Oh?
- If she's the one keeping Jesus on track,

I really don't think keeping them
apart is the best idea, do you?

I guess not.

(CLEARS THROAT)

- STEF: All right!
- (CLAPS HANDS)

Put me to work, boss.

Where shall I set up the bar?

Uh, well there is no bar.

What?

Well, for one, Dad and
Ana are in recovery.

Okay, but your father has never
minded if other people around him...

And two, I can't buy alcohol.

And I asked for your help,

but you didn't want to
run any errands, so...

you can help me roll
these into these napkins.

- Yeah, I'll grab the ribbon.
- Thank you.

- Sure.
- Love you.

Hey!

So, did you ask Grace to prom yet?

Well, I thought I did, but
then she told me to take my time

and ask her when I'm ready.

- What does that mean?
- She wants a promposal.

An over-the-top invite.

- A grand gesture.
- STEF: Oh.

Like a flash mob, or...

Like, in the vein of a flash mob,

but definitely not a flash mob.

I'm so glad I'm not in high school.

(SIGHS)

Wow!

Kids did a great job setting up.

Where's the, uh... where's the bar?

There is no bar.

It's a good thing you always tell
us we don't need alcohol to have fun.

Come in.

- I missed you so much.
- I missed you, too.

- You look amazing.
- (LAUGHS)

Oh. You're not wearing the ring?

Oh, yeah. I was...

worried about your moms seeing it.

Don't be. They know
we're getting married.

And they're totally cool with it, too.

Really?

Yeah.

Come on.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Oh, AJ, that's wonderful.

- Oh, God.
- LENA: Wow!

STEF: Very nice job, AJ.

Thanks, you guys, for
doing this. Really.

No, we didn't do anything, truly.

Yeah, it was all Brandon and AJ.

Better go say hi to my future in-laws.

STEF: Yes, you should.

- Hey, Elena.
- Hi.

- Hey, is that, uh...
- Yes.

ELENA: What's he doing here?

Oh, good. Gabe decided to come.

Stef and Lena are letting him live here

while he helps Jesus
with his school project.

Please be nice. You, too.

- I am nice.
- Mm-hmm.

- Victor.
- Come on!

- You're family now.
- (LAUGHS) Okay.

Sorry! Official
photographer of the night.

Get together.

- MIKE: It's good to see you.
- VICTOR: Welcome to the family. Congratulations.

Hey!

- VICTOR: Look at this guy.
- ELENA: So handsome!

Oh, hey Brandon. Where's the bar?

There is no bar. Jeez.

But there's soda and water
in the cooler on the patio.

(ANA LAUGHING)

Look at you, beautiful.

ADRIANA: Come take a picture. Picture.

Grandma's got to be in front.

(MUFFLED CHATTER, LAUGHTER OUTSIDE)

(EXHALES)

Emma. Hi, honey.

- How are you?
- Good.

Good to see you. Thanks for coming.

Oh!

The... That's, uh...

the ring that Jesus gave you?

- Yeah.
- Oh.

That's, uh... Wow. That's very pretty.

Thanks.

So, AJ, how are your
college applications going?

Good, good. I'm running
out of humble brags...

- It's a nice party.
- Thank you so much.

Brandon and AJ, you
know, they did it all.

- Try some of the hors d'oeuvres.
- Ooh, I think I will.

- Okay.
- LENA: Where are you applying?

Mostly UCs.

Hopefully I'll get into UCSD.

I just had my interview
for the art school today.

Oh, you did? You know, Callie is
applying to the art school as well.

She's auditing an art class there
this semester. Did you tell him?

What is wrong with you?

Ah. Oh... Oh, sorry, honey.

I just, I have, uh... I think
I have something in my eye.

- It really...
- Okay.

I'm so sorry.

Why didn't you tell me?

Like, your work is so good.

I mean, there's no way I'm gonna get in,

so, what's the point
of even saying anything?

Why would you assume that?

You got asked to audit
a class. That's huge.

Yeah, just because the art teacher

saw my senior project at Anchor Beach.

I only have three
pieces in my portfolio.

That's not enough, and I don't
even know if they're any good.

Well, can I see them?

Just to make sure they're
as bad as you think they are?

- She's wearing it.
- What?

The ring. The engagement...

It's... it's out of Jesus's head

- onto her finger.
- (SIGHS)

Maybe she doesn't think it
means what Jesus thinks it means.

(SCOFFS)

What are you... What are you doing?

There's not enough to
share and we need this.

This is a new low.

I think that we need
to ask her, directly,

are they engaged?

Right now? In the middle of a party?

No, not now, but soon. Very, very soon.

(ANA LAUGHING)

- Hey!
- Hey.

Did you talk to Ana yet?

What? No.

No, and I'm not going to, Jesus.

This is her engagement party.

Maybe that's why she invited you.

So that you'd realize
that this is happening

and you would say something.

Come on. What is the worst
that could happen? She says no?

- Say something.
- Oh. (CLEARS THROAT)

- Hey! I'm glad you came.
- Hey.

Yeah, I'm not so sure
your folks feel that way.

Oh, they're fine, I promise.

I am gonna go grab some food.

Bye-bye.

So...

where's, uh, where's Isabella?

We finally got her to
sleep. Can you believe it?

(CHUCKLES)

She likes you.

- What's there not to like.
- (LAUGHS)

All right, let's take
a birth family photo.

Come on.

JESUS: Come on.

Okay, everyone get close.

Ready?

They are a beautiful family.

ADRIANA: Three, two, one...

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

Perfect!

Aw, it's so cute.

You ever think maybe we made a mistake,

pushing Gabe out of her life?

These are great.

I love this one.

Yeah, you're the only one.

You should have heard the
critique my class gave me.

Oh, the hell with them.

No, I mean, maybe I should
apply to another program,

do something that can make a difference.

- You don't think art can make a difference?
- You know what I mean.

No, I don't.

Art raises awareness.

It changes opinions and politics.

It overcomes cultural divisions.

It can move people to move mountains.

I hope you said that in
your interview yesterday.

I'm serious, Callie.

- But yes, I did.
- (LAUGHS)

There's a lot of ways
you can make a difference.

Maybe there's an easier way for me.

Don't do that.

Don't give up on what you really want

just to do what's easier.

Do what makes you happy.

What inspires you?

Shiloh McCullen. She is the devil.

She's speaking at the
university tomorrow.

We're gonna block her.

Oh, yeah?

You want some backup?

Okay, everybody.

Hi, everyone. Can I get
everyone's attention, please?

Okay, so, as the best man, it is
my job to give the first toast.

I'm sorry there isn't any champagne,

but there is plenty of
ginger ale, so go nuts.

Anyway, um...

instead of a toast, I decided
to write this for you, Dad.

- Hi.
- Hi.

By the way, that was
beautiful, Grace and Brandon.

Anna, I just wanted
to say congratulations.

I'm so happy that you found
Mike. He's an amazing guy.

- Told you.
- And...

you guys are totally soul mates, so...

I'm so happy for you.

- STEF: Hear! Hear!
- (CHEERING)

- Uh, yeah.
- (LAUGHING)

So, I, um...

Well, I guess I never really...

thought that I'd be at an
engagement party for my birth mom.

I never really thought that
we'd have a relationship...

with you.

Or you, Gabe.

But, um...

one thing that I know...

is that it's never too late.

Even if you think it is.

So, yeah, that's pretty
much what I wanted to say.

(LAUGHING, CLAPPING)

- All right, Jesus!
- Woo!

- What the hell was that toast?
- What do you mean?

This is my dad's engagement party!

VICTOR: There is so much to say, mija.

We are so proud of you.

- VICTOR: It takes such strength and faith...
- Okay. Look, Brandon.

If Gabe and Ana

still have feelings for each other...

It's none of your business!

Do you really want your dad to
marry Ana if she still loves Gabe?

- (ALL LAUGHING)
- Good on the grill!

You're unbelievable.

Just stay out of it, okay?

- To Mike and Ana!
- ALL: Mike and Ana!

Hey.

What are you doing in here all alone?

Sorry, I was just taking a break.

Honey, are you all right?

I really want Jesus to get better

and go back to school,

but I'm not ready to be engaged.

Gabe.

Got a minute?

Mr. and Mrs. Gutierrez.

Gabe, this is, um,

hard for us to say.

We're sorry.

For what we did to you.

We thought we were doing
the best for our daughter.

And...

who knows what might have been

if we had handled things differently.

Oh.

Thank you.

Way to make your old man cry, huh?

Well, that was what I was going for.

This is a great party, B.

Thank you.

(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

Everything okay?

Brandon, thank you
so much for the party.

Yeah. Sure.

Um, Dave's leaving, so if
you want to say goodbye.

Oh, okay.

Um, excuse me.

(LAUGHING)

(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

- Hey.
- Hey.

Jesus's recovery is
not your responsibility.

It's his.

And it's mine and it's Stef's.

And I'm so sorry that
I didn't think about

the burden I was putting on you.

So, you're not okay
with us being engaged?

No.

No, of course not.

I... I...

Honestly, honey, we just thought that

maybe it was all in his head.

- We should have asked you.
- It's okay.

I think it sort of all is in his head.

I never said that I would marry him.

We'll talk to him, okay?

Would it be okay if
I talked to him first?

Yeah, yes, of course.

Come here.

(CRYING)

Thank you.

(VOICE SHAKING) Hey.

Maybe my mom was right.

About indulging Jesus.

I can't take the path
of least resistance

just because I'm
afraid of the outbursts.

Hey, there's no "I" in
this. Okay, it's "we."

It's "we."

We're not giving up, okay?

We're not giving in to
this thing with Jesus.

We're gonna fight to get our boy back.

Whatever treatment it
takes, we'll try them all,

until something works, okay?

- When are we gonna see that doctor in LA?
- In a couple weeks.

Okay. So, in the meantime,
we take away that tree house,

and whatever else we have
to, to get his attention.

(SIGHS)

I know, baby.

Have a good night, Brandon.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

(DOOR OPENS)

What's up?

Why... why did you cry...

when you told me you were marrying Mike?

It was, uh, just something Jesus said.

That I still had feelings for you?

Yeah. Yeah, it just...

He has this crazy idea

that you and I could still be together.

What if we could?

Look, I know I blew it.

When I got out of prison...

instead of feeling sorry for myself...

I should have found you.

And the twins.

And we should have been a family.

We... we still can be a family.

I could be a father to Isabella.

What if it's not too late?

(SIGHS)

Because...

I still love you.

You have no idea

how many times I've dreamed

of you saying this.

How long...

I've wished you came back.

But it is too late.

I love Mike.

And I can't wait to marry him.

(KNOCKING)

(CHUCKLES) There you are.

Shall we, uh, shall
we shut the door, or...

I love you.

But...

But I can't wear this if it
means what you think it does.

Wait. Um...

Are you breaking up with me right now?

No, I'm not.

But we're too young
to be engaged, Jesus.

And I can't be your only reason

for wanting to go back to school.
You need to do that for yourself.

Wait, I'm sorry. So,
that's why you said yes?

I never said yes.

Well, if that's how you...

if that's how you feel, then
maybe we should break up.

- Jesus!
- I'm not a charity case.

I never said that you were!

What, you think that I
can't survive without you?

- That's not what I meant!
- You know what, Emma?

I don't need you.

Yes, you do, Jesus.

She's stuck by you this whole time!

She's been, like, the
best girlfriend ever.

Oh, and now all of a
sudden, you like her?

You guys are friends
again? Well, that's great.

But you know what?
Leave me the hell alone.

- Jesus.
- I mean it, okay? Let's just call it.

- Don't do this.
- You need to stay out of this.

And you, if you don't want me forever,

then I don't want you at all.

So just go!

Just get out, Emma!

You're so stupid.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(DOOR OPENS)

Emma!

He doesn't mean it.

I know.

He's gonna get better. He really is.

When?

I miss him, too.

(CRYING)

- You don't have to do that.
- I don't mind.

Ana's getting Isabella.

She really loves you, Dad.

Yeah, I know.

MIKE: Hey.

I gotta get my bag.

Okay.

- Thank you, again.
- Thank you.

(CHUCKLES)

Hi.

(KNOCKING)

Protest is tomorrow, huh?

Yup.

I'm proud of you.

You know that? Taking a stand.

But?

You're not a student at UCSD yet.

You really want to do something

that could jeopardize
your chances of getting in?

So, I should just not express my beliefs

- 'cause I'm scared?
- Mm-mm.

No. No, it's just, uh,
just something to consider.

A lot of these campus protests

have been getting violent lately.

- We're gonna be peaceful.
- Yeah, I know.

It's not you that I don't trust, Cal.

There are people who sometimes
like to take advantage

of these emotionally charged
situations, create chaos.

So, are you saying I can't go?

No.

I just want you to promise me...

that if things do start to
get out of hand, that, uh...

you will make the right call.

Okay. Promise.

You know, Stratos doesn't even care

about Anchor Beach Academy.

He just wants revenge against
Anchor Beach 'cause of Nick.

I mean, it's crap. If anyone
deserves revenge, it's you and me.

- 'Cause of what Nick did to us.
- You're right.

I heard back from the
people at Eminent Power.

And?

They only want me.

But we're girl and gay guy.

I know, and that's what I told them.

And, you know, even though
I really want to do it,

and it's an amazing opportunity,

I told them I won't do it without you.

If you don't want me to.

Y... you did?

If you really don't want me to.

Well, thanks.

Screw them, right?
We'll do our own thing.

I... I got to go to the bathroom.

- (GASPS) My God.
- Oh! I...

Uh, hi. I'm Brandon.

Grace's girlfriend. Boyfriend.

Well, I'm her mother.

(LAUGHS)

Uh, well, this isn't
what you think it is.

Oh?

It's... it's kind of a joke, actually.

A few weeks ago, Grace...

Never mind, it's not important.

I'm sorry you have to
be meeting me this way.

You know, Grace has no
business having a boyfriend...

let alone going to prom, so.

Uh, hey...

- Uh, Mom, this is Brandon.
- Yeah, we've met.

Well, I'm just gonna...

go.

Hey, um, the answer's yes, by the way.

Prom.

Well, I wish you would have
told me that the first time.

(LAUGHS)

Hey, how did it go? Did
you get the posters hung?

- Yeah.
- No one was there. It was perfect.

Great.

(VIBRATING)

- Hello.
- DREW: I need you to come to the school now.
