00:00:00Is that my seat?
00:00:08What is this?
00:00:23Morgan, we share a class, it's fate.
00:00:25I can't wait to take you on a date.
00:00:27Your secret admirer?
00:00:31P.S. I'm not some random weirdo I told Liam who I am.
00:00:36Mm-mm. I'm not gonna tell you that'd ruin all the fun.
00:00:40But, speaking of fun,
00:00:43happy birthday.
00:00:45Oh, pencil case.
00:00:48How pragmatic.
00:00:50Thanks.
00:01:00I...
00:01:01We got yours. Mm.
00:01:02What is new?
00:01:03Can you share mine?
00:01:10So you're seriously not gonna tell me who my secret admirer is?
00:01:13I'll give you a hint.
00:01:15It is one of the three boys that you are always talking about.
00:01:23We share a class.
00:01:26We share a class with all three. That doesn't narrow it down.
00:01:28Well, then I guess you're actually gonna have to talk to them.
00:01:34I can't do that.
00:01:36Why not?
00:01:37Because I'm too shy.
00:01:39You are never shy around me.
00:01:41It's different.
00:01:42I'm only shy around guys with romantic potential.
00:01:44Okay?
00:01:54Jesus!
00:01:55Whoa!
00:01:56We've known each other since we were six years old.
00:01:58How are you this startled by my appearance?
00:02:00I wasn't. I'm not.
00:02:01Morgan, I am worried about you and the shy talk.
00:02:06How are you gonna find a boyfriend if you can't even talk to a guy you like?
00:02:10Maybe I don't want one.
00:02:11Maybe I just enjoy daydreaming about it.
00:02:14Daydreaming about him?
00:02:26What does he always say about him?
00:02:32Oh my god, he's so cute.
00:02:34And he's artistic.
00:02:36And he's just so deep.
00:02:38I, I, stop.
00:02:40Stop.
00:02:41Well, if you go talk to him.
00:02:44Life is about taking chances, right?
00:02:47Live a little.
00:02:49That's very inspiring.
00:02:52Have you ever considered becoming a life coach?
00:02:54As a matter of fact, I have.
00:02:57Now.
00:02:59Go.
00:03:01Get up.
00:03:03Antoine?
00:03:05Do you want to get lunch together sometime maybe?
00:03:08Sorry, what?
00:03:10I asked if you wanted to grab lunch.
00:03:13Like, later.
00:03:14Today.
00:03:15I have to practice with my band over lunch period.
00:03:20The dreadnoughts.
00:03:22Oh.
00:03:23Right.
00:03:24No problem.
00:03:27You can come if you want.
00:03:29Really?
00:03:32I'd love to.
00:03:34Cool.
00:03:35See you there at noon.
00:03:57So, Morgan, right?
00:04:01What kind of music do you like?
00:04:03All kinds.
00:04:04But my friend Liam and I have been really into the splinters lately.
00:04:07You listen to that pop trash?
00:04:10Well, it's not like it's my absolute favorite or anything.
00:04:15Um.
00:04:17What about you?
00:04:18What do you listen to?
00:04:19I'm very particular when it comes to my sound, but lately I've been into lowercase.
00:04:24Oh, cool.
00:04:26Never heard of lowercase, but I'll check them out.
00:04:28It's not a band.
00:04:29It's a musical genre.
00:04:30It's all about ambient minimalism taken to the extreme.
00:04:35Oh.
00:04:36Let's start with monster zone.
00:04:37All right.
00:04:38One, two, three.
00:04:42All right.
00:04:43Stop, stop, stop.
00:04:44Jeff, you're out of tune.
00:04:45And Danny, you're at least three beats behind.
00:04:46All right, okay.
00:04:47Come on.
00:04:48Can you please get your crap together?
00:04:49Seriously.
00:04:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:51Okay.
00:04:52How many times have we practiced this?
00:04:53All right.
00:04:54Let's do it again.
00:04:55Again from the top.
00:04:59Danny what are you doing?
00:05:00Come on, can you please get your crap together?
00:05:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
00:05:04How many times have we practiced this?
00:05:06All right, let's do it again.
00:05:07Again, from the top.
00:05:19Davey, what are you doing?
00:05:21Man, that's...
00:05:24It's like this.
00:05:26One, two, three, one, two, three.
00:05:29All right, all right.
00:05:40Hey, where are you going?
00:05:43We haven't even gotten to my best riffs yet.
00:05:45I've heard enough.
00:05:47Besides, I've got to get to class.
00:05:51Don't you want to listen to some good music for once?
00:05:55Good music?
00:05:57My taste may be basic, but I'd take the splinters over this noise any day.
00:06:07Again?
00:06:08Again.
00:06:09Oh, Mr. Rush.
00:06:25Oh, Mr. Rush.
00:06:27Sam.
00:06:28I'm sorry, I didn't see you.
00:06:29Can I have my phone back?
00:06:39Oh, sure.
00:06:40I mean, only if...
00:06:41Only if you want to get ice cream?
00:06:45Or something after school?
00:06:47I mean, of course you can have your phone back.
00:06:49Here.
00:06:50I mean, I'd love to get ice cream with you, but why not right now?
00:06:59Oh!
00:07:00Um...
00:07:01Because we have class?
00:07:02So?
00:07:03Skip.
00:07:05I've never skipped class before.
00:07:06There's a first time for everything.
00:07:07You know what?
00:07:08Why not?
00:07:09Why not right now?
00:07:10Oh!
00:07:11Um...
00:07:12Because we have class?
00:07:13So?
00:07:14Skip.
00:07:16I've never skipped class before.
00:07:17There's a first time for everything.
00:07:19You know what?
00:07:20Why not?
00:07:21Nothing wrong with a little misbehavior.
00:07:22Now and then, right?
00:07:23That's my motto, too.
00:07:26After you.
00:07:27See?
00:07:28I've never skipped class before.
00:07:29I've never skipped class before.
00:07:30There's a first time for everything.
00:07:31You know what?
00:07:32Why not?
00:07:33Nothing wrong with a little misbehavior.
00:07:34Now and then, right?
00:07:35That's my motto, too.
00:07:37After you.
00:07:42See?
00:07:43Skipping school can be fun.
00:07:44Almost as fun as those two red lights you ran through.
00:07:45Morgan.
00:07:46With a car like this, you trade comfort for speed.
00:07:47I miss comfort.
00:07:48Comfort?
00:07:49I thought you wanted to misbehave.
00:07:52I don't know why I said that.
00:07:53Sounds like you're a bit different.
00:07:54I'm sorry.
00:07:55I'm sorry.
00:07:56I'm sorry.
00:07:57I'm sorry.
00:07:58I'm sorry.
00:07:59I'm sorry.
00:08:00I'm sorry.
00:08:01I'm sorry.
00:08:02I'm sorry.
00:08:03I'm sorry.
00:08:04I'm sorry.
00:08:05I'm sorry.
00:08:06I'm sorry.
00:08:07I'm sorry.
00:08:08I'm sorry.
00:08:09I'm sorry.
00:08:10I'm sorry.
00:08:11I'm sorry.
00:08:12Sounds like you want to try something different.
00:08:15Something dangerous.
00:08:26Come on.
00:08:27I'm bored.
00:08:28Let's go find some tracks to jump.
00:08:30You can't just drop that there.
00:08:32What do you sound?
00:08:34Humanitarian?
00:08:35Well, I don't litter, if that's what you mean.
00:08:38Hold this.
00:08:40So the hot good girl decides she wants to be bad for a day.
00:08:53I like that.
00:08:55God, my girlfriend would be so pissed if she caught us like this.
00:09:11You have a girlfriend?
00:09:13Someone who wants to misbehave definitely knows that.
00:09:17Miss Mahava's in skip class.
00:09:18Live a little.
00:09:19Kiss a guy with a girlfriend.
00:09:20Morgan.
00:09:21Morgan.
00:09:22So that's a no on the ride back?
00:09:24Open.
00:09:25How to go with Antoine?
00:09:26How that bad, huh?
00:09:27Horrible.
00:09:28Though not as bad as my date with Sam.
00:09:30Wait.
00:09:31Did...
00:09:32Did you skip class?
00:09:33No.
00:09:34No.
00:09:35No.
00:09:36No.
00:09:37No.
00:09:38No.
00:09:39No.
00:09:40No.
00:09:41No.
00:09:42No.
00:09:43No.
00:09:44No.
00:09:45No.
00:09:46No.
00:09:47No.
00:09:48No.
00:09:49No.
00:09:50No.
00:09:51No.
00:09:52No.
00:09:53No.
00:09:54No.
00:09:55No.
00:09:56No.
00:09:57No.
00:09:58No.
00:09:59No.
00:10:00No.
00:10:01No.
00:10:02No.
00:10:03No.
00:10:04No.
00:10:05No.
00:10:06Who are you and what have you done my best friend? I wish I had just stuck to daydreaming about these guys
00:10:14Real dating sucks
00:10:20What can I do to make you feel better I
00:10:24Need a wipe today for my memory
00:10:27Let's go to your treehouse and listen to the splinters all night
00:10:31By the way, the splinters are pop trash
00:10:33I've been informed
00:10:36First of all screw whoever said that
00:10:40Second
00:10:42Before you give up on dating just yet
00:10:46I think there's something you should see
00:11:03Who are those from?
00:11:04Ah, don't you want your big rom-com moments?
00:11:16Liam, I...
00:11:18So there were three guys you had crushes on
00:11:21And you told me you went on a date with two of them today
00:11:25So
00:11:27By process of elimination
00:11:31Wait, you're telling me my secret admirer is Derek?
00:11:36Ding ding ding
00:11:37Derek captain of the football team?
00:11:39Derek our class president?
00:11:41Derek the guy every girl in school has been head over heels in love with since like sixth grade?
00:11:47Every girl might be an exaggeration
00:11:49Sorry, every girl with eyeballs who's interested in guys
00:11:53And he did all this for me
00:11:55So apparently he has great taste in women
00:12:01Derek wants you to meet him at that fancy new french restaurant in town
00:12:04That's what this note says
00:12:12Look, you can
00:12:14Either join me in our
00:12:16treehouse tonight and we can listen to our favorite band like we always do
00:12:20Or you can go on a date with the most popular guy in high school
00:12:25It's up to you
00:12:29It's up to you
00:12:33Yeah
00:12:34I guess you're right
00:12:38Maybe third time's the charm
00:12:44So any tips on what I should wear tonight life coach?
00:12:49Sorry ladies fashion is the limit of my expertise
00:12:55Have fun
00:12:56I'll let you know how it goes
00:13:04I'm sorry i'm late happy birthday morgan
00:13:25I've been looking forward to this for weeks
00:13:32Uh, thank you for the balloon and the flowers
00:13:37No one's ever done anything this romantic for me
00:13:39I thought you'd like it
00:13:40I don't know what it is
00:13:42And every day is looking forward to this for weeks
00:13:55You look beautiful tonight
00:14:04Thanks
00:14:04Could you take a picture of us?
00:14:06Yeah, no problem.
00:14:10One, two, three.
00:14:16What was that for?
00:14:17So I can Instagram the first date that I had with the girl that I plan to take to prom.
00:14:22The prom is still months away.
00:14:24How do you know you still want to date me, Den?
00:14:26When you know, you know.
00:14:29But we don't know each other.
00:14:31Not yet.
00:14:33But there's still plenty of time before prom.
00:14:36Oh, right.
00:14:39Oh, wrong table. Sorry, we haven't ordered yet.
00:14:41Well, I actually ordered for us. It's the best things on the menu.
00:14:45Well, I actually ordered for us. It's the best things on the menu.
00:14:59Is something wrong?
00:15:00It's just, I don't eat fish.
00:15:04Oh.
00:15:05I'm sorry.
00:15:06No, it's okay. I can send it back.
00:15:08Can we swap this for a steak?
00:15:11Actually, could we get some menus, please?
00:15:14I'd like to decide for myself.
00:15:16Oh, okay. No problem. I'll remember that for next time.
00:15:19It just might sound weird, but what do you like about me?
00:15:30Well, besides the fact that you'd look gorgeous on my arm in photos.
00:15:35Um, I mean, you seem really easygoing. You're always so calm and quiet.
00:15:42I'm not quiet.
00:15:45Maybe I'm a little shy at school, but around people who really know me, I can be really loud and opinionated.
00:15:52Look, don't you want to be here? I thought girls love all this attention.
00:15:57You know, the romantic gestures.
00:15:59I thought so too.
00:16:02Now I'm not so sure.
00:16:04I need to leave.
00:16:06Don't!
00:16:08Look, I'm gonna look like such a loser if you don't stay.
00:16:11That's no reason to stay.
00:16:14We're wrong for each other, Derek.
00:16:16If you knew me at all, you'd get that.
00:16:25Well, damn.
00:16:41How'd it go?
00:17:06How'd it go?
00:17:09I left early.
00:17:16Why?
00:17:18I thought Derek was everything you ever wanted, Mr. Popular and Romantic.
00:17:24I thought so too.
00:17:28But then I realized, romance isn't about all that stuff you see in the movies.
00:17:33It's about knowing someone.
00:17:39Really knowing them.
00:17:43It's about liking all the same music and laughing at all the same cheesy jokes.
00:17:50It's...
00:17:56It's...
00:17:59It's how I feel about you.
00:18:03Look, I know you don't feel the same or you never would have helped Derek, but...
00:18:09I had to tell you.
00:18:10I had to tell you.
00:18:16Yeah.
00:18:18Morgan.
00:18:20The reason I helped Derek plan the secret of Myra thing is because I wanted you to be happy.
00:18:25to be happy you're always talking about these guys you have crushes on creative
00:18:34badass talented guys guys guys who are nothing like me Liam you are the most
00:18:43creative badass talented guy that I know you were right in front of me the whole
00:18:51time
00:19:06oh I got holes in my shoes and I got dirt on my hands y'all take care of you better than
00:19:15any other man you're gonna have to get a little less pragmatic with presents though
00:19:27what do you mean a pencil case really did you look inside
00:19:36did you get us tickets to see the splinters live next month what yeah I did
00:19:46I'm
00:19:58Hi, why aren't you in class?
00:20:21Oh, I said I had to go to the bathroom.
00:20:25I'm just checking in on the patient.
00:20:28I'm fine. Just not feeling any better and wishing I was in school.
00:20:34You are the only person I know who'd rather be at school than home binge-watching Netflix.
00:20:39I like school. And you know I'm not going to binge-watch anything without you, because then we can't talk about it.
00:20:45Good point. I like that we watch shows together.
00:20:50Me too.
00:20:51I don't think your dad loves it, though.
00:20:53He's just convinced we're making out the whole time.
00:20:56He's not entirely wrong.
00:20:58So, what did I miss in English? Did she give us any new chapters to read before next week's test?
00:21:07No, the reading hasn't changed, and I took notes for you on everything, so knowing you, you probably won't need them.
00:21:14Anything good happen at lunch today?
00:21:17Besides Anika and Derek getting back together for the tenth time?
00:21:19They did? When? How?
00:21:22He made a big show of it in the quad. He even got the entire acapella group to come serenade her.
00:21:27Ugh, I'm missing everything.
00:21:30You've been gone for two days.
00:21:32Yeah, and that's enough time for me to fall behind on my schoolwork and my social life.
00:21:37Well, it'll be here when you get back. I promise.
00:21:40But in the meantime, I'm going to come over after school.
00:21:43I am going to bring your homework and bring your favorite soup.
00:21:46And then we are going to binge watch every episode of Outer Banks.
00:21:50And I promise I'll actually try to pay attention this time.
00:21:53Or we could just make out and prove your dad right.
00:21:57Hang on a minute.
00:22:04You have no idea how much I would love that, but I can't.
00:22:33I really don't want to get you sick.
00:22:36What if I sit on the opposite side of the room?
00:22:38Let's just keep it on FaceTime for a couple more days, okay?
00:22:42That way I'll feel better sooner and I'll be back in school.
00:22:46I understand.
00:22:49I just wish you were here.
00:22:51Me too.
00:22:54Well, I better get back to Trig.
00:22:56Don't forget to...
00:22:57I'll take very detailed notes.
00:23:01Thanks, Liam.
00:23:03Feel better.
00:23:03Feel better.
00:24:04Sam, we have a group project due next week.
00:24:08Yeah, and I'm sure you're doing a great job with that.
00:24:11I am not doing the project by myself.
00:24:14You need to help.
00:24:15You and I both know that me helping would only slow things down.
00:24:19The project would be a lot better if you do the work.
00:24:22That is completely unfair.
00:24:24It's your grade, too.
00:24:25Yeah, and with you, I know my grade is in good hands.
00:24:29Yes.
00:24:38What?
00:24:38Sam Hitchens, you better help me with a stupid project, or so help me, Beyonce, it will key
00:24:43that stupid car you love so much.
00:24:45Whoa, don't threaten, Rhonda.
00:24:47I'm completely serious.
00:24:49All right, fine.
00:24:53Meet me at DQ and we can talk about the project or whatever.
00:24:55I can't meet you anywhere.
00:24:57I'm sick.
00:24:59You have to come to my house.
00:25:00And why would I come to your house if you're sick?
00:25:03Because your grade depends on it, and I really don't care if I give you a fever.
00:25:08You already do.
00:25:17Better be on your way over here.
00:25:19What?
00:25:22I, Liam, I thought you were-
00:25:24Coming over?
00:25:25I totally can.
00:25:27I just need, let me just get like a few things for you, okay?
00:25:30No, I don't think that's a good idea.
00:25:33But I thought you just said-
00:25:34I know, I think the flu medicine is making me delirious.
00:25:39Okay, uh, well, I just got home, so if you change your mind, just send some smoke signals
00:25:46out the window.
00:25:50Hang on a minute, okay?
00:25:51Okay.
00:25:57Sam, I changed my mind.
00:25:58Don't come over here.
00:25:59You're joking.
00:26:00I just made myself available for this, and you're canceling?
00:26:03I just made myself available for this, and you're canceling?
00:26:07I know, but today isn't a good day.
00:26:09I'm sick.
00:26:10Yeah, you keep saying that.
00:26:11Right, so you wouldn't want to come over anyway.
00:26:14Nope.
00:26:15Sorry.
00:26:16Already on the way.
00:26:16Wait, Sam.
00:26:18Sam.
00:26:19Sam?
00:26:21Uh, what about Sam?
00:26:23He, uh, I need to talk to him about homework.
00:26:28Are we talking about the same Sam?
00:26:30Sam?
00:26:33Wait, what?
00:26:37Morgan, listen, we have...
00:26:39Oh, what up, Liam?
00:26:41Were you intrigued today?
00:26:42I could really use some notes.
00:26:44Uh, yeah, I was.
00:26:49Um, you need notes from today?
00:26:52Or, like, the whole semester.
00:26:55I'll take whatever, honestly.
00:26:57Sam, this really isn't a good time.
00:27:01Yeah, I thought about it, and you're right.
00:27:03I can't be hanging out with a sick person, so it's probably better if I don't come over and you handle the project.
00:27:10You're coming over.
00:27:11Well, I was.
00:27:13Morgan doesn't care that it's completely irresponsible to invite somebody over when you're sick.
00:27:17That is not what happened.
00:27:19Uh, kind of is.
00:27:22Anyways, there's this new hottie working the counter at DQ, and she's off in 10, so I gotta go.
00:27:27What?
00:27:27What about our group project?
00:27:29Just let me know where you need me to initial or whatever.
00:27:31That is not how group projects work.
00:27:35Gotta go.
00:27:36Bye.
00:27:36Oh, and Liam.
00:27:39What's up, Sam?
00:27:41Maybe keep taking notes from me and Trey.
00:27:48So you were going to have him come over?
00:27:51Just to work on our project.
00:27:53You know how important that grade is to me.
00:27:56And you know that taking care of my girlfriend when she's sick is important to me.
00:27:59Why would you let him come over and not me?
00:28:07I thought you hated that guy.
00:28:08I don't hate him.
00:28:09I just don't like him.
00:28:14Three weeks ago, you thought you might want to date him, and now you're inviting him over to your house.
00:28:21Look, it just feels like you don't want to see me.
00:28:24I do.
00:28:26It's just...
00:28:26Honestly, I don't want you to see me.
00:28:34Not like this.
00:28:36Morgan, we've been through every awkward phase imaginable together.
00:28:41I don't care how you look.
00:28:43I know, but things are different now.
00:28:46I don't care if Sam sees me sick and gross, because it's Sam.
00:28:52But with you...
00:28:55I guess I'm just a little more self-conscious.
00:28:59Morgan, I still feel like I'm playing out of my league here.
00:29:03There's literally nothing you could do to ever change the way I feel about you.
00:29:06I'm sorry I even considered letting Sam come over and not you.
00:29:17I'm just overthinking it.
00:29:20And I really would feel terrible if I got you sick.
00:29:23I know.
00:29:24But it's for me to decide whether it's worth the risk or not.
00:29:28And it definitely is.
00:29:32You know I'm still going to make you watch Outer Banks, right?
00:29:35Yes.
00:29:36Totally.
00:29:36It's actually why I'm coming over in the first place.
00:29:41Or we can do homework.
00:29:42I have all your notes from class.
00:29:45That's better than flowers.
00:29:48It is so cute that you think so.
00:29:50Morgan, from where I'm sitting, you look beautiful.
00:30:05Okay, I'm going to come over now.
00:30:20You are a sight for sore eyes.
00:30:36It can't be that sore.
00:30:37You're staring at the Italian coast every day.
00:30:39That's true.
00:30:41It's beautiful here.
00:30:42But not nearly as beautiful as you.
00:30:46I wanted to look nice for a date.
00:30:49Well, you always look nice.
00:30:50Happy three months.
00:30:55Happy three months.
00:31:00So, how was your morning?
00:31:02Boring.
00:31:04Nobody's in town.
00:31:05While you're off gallivanting in Italy,
00:31:07I think I've read every book the library has to offer.
00:31:11Well, Summer's been reading.
00:31:12That sounds like your dream.
00:31:14Yeah, well, even that is losing its luster.
00:31:18What about you?
00:31:19Are you fluent in Italian yet?
00:31:21Si.
00:31:22Ciao, Bella.
00:31:23How are you?
00:31:24How are you?
00:31:25How are you, Paolo?
00:31:26Not bad.
00:31:27Oh, I'm working on it.
00:31:30Still got another month to nail it.
00:31:33Another month I don't get to see you.
00:31:35I know.
00:31:36I miss you so much.
00:31:38I didn't think an entire summer apart would be this bad.
00:31:41I know.
00:31:42Me neither.
00:31:43I actually wanted to talk to you about that.
00:31:45I kind of wanted to talk to you about that, too.
00:31:50You go first.
00:31:51What did you want to say?
00:31:52Uh, Morgan, can you just give me one second?
00:31:58Sure.
00:31:59Um, hi.
00:32:09Oh.
00:32:10Hi.
00:32:11Uh, sorry.
00:32:12I didn't know this was on.
00:32:14Liam just went to the other room for a minute.
00:32:16Liam just went to the other room for a minute.
00:32:20Oh.
00:32:21You're Morgan.
00:32:22That's me.
00:32:28Why didn't you tell me she was on right now?
00:32:31It's okay.
00:32:32She doesn't know anything yet.
00:32:33Well, you better tell me.
00:32:36Hey, sorry about that.
00:32:41Everything okay?
00:32:44Um, yeah.
00:32:47I think so.
00:32:48You?
00:32:49Yeah.
00:32:50There's nothing.
00:32:51Um, I wanted to talk to you about...
00:32:57Liam, I, uh, I, I'm actually feeling kind of funny.
00:33:01Do you think we could pick this up later?
00:33:05Of course.
00:33:06Um, yeah, are, are you alright?
00:33:08I'm fine.
00:33:09I just need to lie down or something.
00:33:13I'll call you back later, okay?
00:33:16I'll call you back later, okay?
00:33:19Okay.
00:33:21Hey, I'm not here right now.
00:33:50God, is everybody gone for the summer?
00:33:59What do you want, Sam?
00:34:00Morgan!
00:34:01What up, girl?
00:34:02How's summer?
00:34:04Painfully boring.
00:34:05That's cool.
00:34:06Listen, I need some help.
00:34:08I need some help.
00:34:10The thing is, I'm stuck doing summer school.
00:34:14Turns out, skipping all of my classes wasn't the best idea,
00:34:16and my parents took away my car until I get my grades back up,
00:34:19which is honestly so uncool.
00:34:23Anyways, I was thinking about how you're pretty smart,
00:34:26and we did okay on that group project last year,
00:34:30so what if you helped me out and tutor me or something?
00:34:34You're joking, right?
00:34:36You want me to tutor you?
00:34:38Yeah, why not?
00:34:39You love learning.
00:34:41Wait, those aren't the same thing.
00:34:43Oh, come on.
00:34:44You know what I mean.
00:34:45Fine, I'll help you.
00:34:50That's what I'm talking about.
00:34:52You're the best, Morgan.
00:34:53But I want something in return.
00:34:57Oh.
00:35:00Well, fine.
00:35:02Name your price.
00:35:03I need a girlfriend.
00:35:08I need a girlfriend.
00:35:10Well, well, well, Morgan.
00:35:11I had no idea.
00:35:14Most of the ladies that I'm acquainted with
00:35:16don't necessarily lean that way,
00:35:18but I think I know a few who might.
00:35:21No, that's not what I meant.
00:35:24I mean,
00:35:24I need a friend.
00:35:27A sounding board.
00:35:30I need you to give me advice.
00:35:34Advice?
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:38Okay.
00:35:39Hit me.
00:35:40What's the problem?
00:35:41Okay.
00:35:42So,
00:35:43Liam is away for the summer
00:35:45with his family in Italy.
00:35:46Italian babes?
00:35:47Oh.
00:35:49Dope.
00:35:49And we were FaceTiming earlier
00:35:52and there was some girl with him.
00:35:54I don't know who she was
00:35:55and he didn't say anything about it,
00:35:57but, I mean,
00:35:58they seemed like they knew each other well,
00:35:59like they were pretty close.
00:36:00And I don't know,
00:36:01I guess I just have this, like,
00:36:02weird feeling about it.
00:36:04Damn.
00:36:05Liam, my man.
00:36:07I honestly didn't even think he had it in him,
00:36:09but you go to a foreign country
00:36:11and all bets are off.
00:36:14So,
00:36:15you think I should be worried?
00:36:18No.
00:36:19Absolutely.
00:36:21Morgan,
00:36:22a man doesn't go to Europe for the summer
00:36:23and not want to taste the local delicacies,
00:36:26if you know what I mean.
00:36:28Can you blame him?
00:36:31Well, what did you guys discuss before he left?
00:36:34Nothing.
00:36:35Nothing?
00:36:37You never said,
00:36:38Liam, you're going to a foreign country
00:36:40where you're going to be surrounded
00:36:41by beautiful and exotic women.
00:36:44Please don't cheat on me.
00:36:45I didn't think I had to.
00:36:47We're not mind readers, Morgan.
00:36:50Ugh.
00:36:54Morgan, where do you go?
00:36:58So,
00:36:59should I come over to study?
00:37:02Or,
00:37:02even better,
00:37:03can you come to me?
00:37:04It's kind of hard getting around without a car.
00:37:07I'll talk to you later, Sam.
00:37:09I have to handle this.
00:37:10Wait, Morgan,
00:37:11you said you would help me.
00:37:11Oh,
00:37:12Hey, you feeling better?
00:37:25Are you cheating on me?
00:37:28Are you cheating on me?
00:37:30What?
00:37:31Listen,
00:37:32I get it.
00:37:33We've been apart all summer
00:37:34and you're in Italy,
00:37:35which is probably really beautiful
00:37:37and really romantic
00:37:38and here I am,
00:37:39just bored and lonely.
00:37:41How can I compete with that?
00:37:43But,
00:37:44if you met someone else,
00:37:45just tell me
00:37:46because I've spent my summer missing you
00:37:48and if you're just off having a blast
00:37:50with some other girl,
00:37:51I have a right to know.
00:37:53Morgan,
00:37:54where is this coming from?
00:37:58I,
00:37:58I don't know.
00:38:00I saw that girl on her computer
00:38:02and then I was talking to Sam
00:38:04and...
00:38:04You talked to Sam?
00:38:06I don't really have anyone else to talk to.
00:38:10Everyone's gone for the summer
00:38:11and it's lonely here.
00:38:14Well,
00:38:14just a thought,
00:38:15but you can always
00:38:16talk to me.
00:38:19Okay.
00:38:21Who is that girl?
00:38:24That was my cousin.
00:38:26She's in Italy
00:38:27with my family for the summer.
00:38:29Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:33But why was she...
00:38:35What did you want to talk to me about?
00:38:38I wanted it to be a surprise,
00:38:40but I talked to your parents
00:38:43and they gave me permission
00:38:46to fly you out here for a week.
00:38:48They gave me permission
00:38:50to fly you out here for a week.
00:38:52Italy's just,
00:38:53it's so beautiful.
00:38:54And,
00:38:54and I,
00:38:56I want to share it with you.
00:38:59It's just not special without you here.
00:39:01Oh my God.
00:39:02Liam.
00:39:04I'm sorry.
00:39:06I don't know what I was thinking.
00:39:08Well,
00:39:09I know what I'm thinking,
00:39:10which is that you need to stop
00:39:12taking advice from Sam Hitchens.
00:39:14Loneliness must be really getting to me.
00:39:16I just...
00:39:17I really miss you.
00:39:20And Sam got in my head,
00:39:23and...
00:39:23That's okay.
00:39:25but do you want to come to Italy?
00:39:31Well,
00:39:32it's funny you should ask.
00:39:36I begged my parents,
00:39:37and they actually got me a ticket
00:39:38to come see you.
00:39:39That is why it was so easy
00:39:42to get them to say yes.
00:39:43Um,
00:39:44when,
00:39:45when do you get here?
00:39:46I arrived next week.
00:39:48The world's apart,
00:39:49and we're still on the same page.
00:39:50Let's keep it that way.
00:39:52Deal.
00:39:52I'm Morgan.
00:39:59I,
00:39:59um,
00:40:01I miss you.
00:40:07I miss you too.
00:40:22I miss you too.
00:40:52Hey,
00:40:53how's it going?
00:40:54How's your summer?
00:40:55Well,
00:40:56I went to Burning Man,
00:40:57which was pretty transformative.
00:41:00Is that like a seance or something?
00:41:02Burning Man is a movement.
00:41:05For some people,
00:41:05it's a lifestyle,
00:41:06but I wouldn't expect someone like you
00:41:08to understand that.
00:41:09Oh.
00:41:11I'm sorry.
00:41:12That was harsh.
00:41:14Let's start over.
00:41:16Hey,
00:41:17Morgan.
00:41:17How are you?
00:41:19My summer was good.
00:41:20Thank you for asking.
00:41:21What's going on?
00:41:22I was actually kind of hoping
00:41:24you could help me with something.
00:41:27I'm trying to write a song
00:41:28for Liam's birthday,
00:41:29only I'm having a hard time
00:41:31with some of the chords.
00:41:32I was hoping you could give me a lesson.
00:41:34You want me to teach you guitar?
00:41:37Yes.
00:41:37It's just,
00:41:38you're really good.
00:41:40Last time I checked,
00:41:41you weren't a fan of my music.
00:41:42I was being unfair to you.
00:41:44I'm sure you have a lot of incredible songs.
00:41:46Thanks.
00:41:47I appreciate that.
00:41:49I do have a lot of really incredible songs,
00:41:51but that's the thing,
00:41:53Morgan.
00:41:54I'm an artist.
00:41:56I'm not a teacher.
00:41:57Teaching is something that artists do
00:41:59once they fail,
00:41:59and I have no intention of failing,
00:42:02so I can't help you.
00:42:03Try Guitar Center.
00:42:04Wait.
00:42:05I really can't afford Guitar Center.
00:42:08I can't even afford a birthday present for Liam,
00:42:11which is why I'm trying to write the song.
00:42:13There's something else you could help me with.
00:42:15Okay.
00:42:17You're on student council, right?
00:42:19I am.
00:42:21So then you know this girl,
00:42:22Devin?
00:42:24Devin, like our school vice president?
00:42:26Of course I do.
00:42:28I want to ask her out on a date,
00:42:29but I need an intro.
00:42:32If you can get her to talk to me,
00:42:33then I will help you with guitar lessons.
00:42:36Let me give her a call,
00:42:37and I'll call you back, okay?
00:42:38Okay.
00:42:39Yeah.
00:42:40Oh, and Morgan,
00:42:41if you want me to teach you any of that pop trash,
00:42:43I won't do it.
00:42:44If you're going to learn to play,
00:42:46you're going to learn to play the good stuff.
00:42:48Whatever you're willing to teach me.
00:42:51Let me know what she says.
00:43:02Hey, what's up, Morgan?
00:43:05Hey, for the reading assignments in English,
00:43:07what chapters are we supposed to be doing?
00:43:09Chapters 1 through 7.
00:43:11I'm ready on chapter 13.
00:43:14Gatsby is such a narcissist.
00:43:16I don't know why this is considered required reading.
00:43:18Totally.
00:43:19I'm not that far yet, but I've seen the movie.
00:43:22Only Leo can make that character remotely interesting.
00:43:26Anyway, is that it?
00:43:28I need to get back to warming up before class.
00:43:31I, uh, actually, do you, uh...
00:43:34Do you know Antoine?
00:43:37The scrub with the long hair who's always making a mess in the music room?
00:43:41Uh, yeah.
00:43:43Well, he, uh...
00:43:45He kind of likes you.
00:43:47he likes me like like he wants to take you on a date look I'm sure he's a nice enough guy but
00:44:00I'm not really interested in dating right now between extracurriculars and college prep I don't
00:44:07really have the time I don't really have the time besides I doubt he and I have anything in common
00:44:13that's not true you you have a lot in common oh really so he's also on the Ivy League track well
00:44:21no but he's an artist so you are too you dance dance is athletic it's fitness but it's creative
00:44:34when you're dancing how does it make you feel it makes me feel free
00:44:43like all of the stress from SATs and GPAs and all of that stuff sort of just melts away I can just lose
00:44:51myself in the music and be me exactly that's art you're passionate about dance and he's passionate
00:45:00about music all I'm saying is give him a chance first impressions aren't everything all right fine you
00:45:10can give him my number really yes really but you better side with me the next student council
00:45:17meeting whenever Derek gets another one of his crazy ideas I will and you won't regret this I'll see you
00:45:25later Morgan it's time to go embrace my art so she told me to give you her number for real yes oh this is

00:51:29I'm not you're taking this wrong
00:51:31then explain it better
00:51:37Sam's calling me
00:51:39can you ignore it?
00:51:40I'd rather talk to him than keep fighting with you
00:51:43please don't
00:51:45Morgan!
00:51:47thank god you answered
00:51:49I knew you would
00:51:51oh good you brought backup
00:51:53hey Sam
00:51:55you guys are such good friends
00:51:57what's going on?
00:51:59it's bad
00:52:00can you tell us about it?
00:52:02it's really bad
00:52:03can't help if we don't know what happened
00:52:06it's just really hard to talk about
00:52:09this kind of thing has never happened before in my whole life
00:52:13and I don't know what to do with all of these feelings
00:52:16just try
00:52:18this is a safe space
00:52:20Katie dumped me
00:52:22she just dropped it on me out of nowhere
00:52:26like goodbye
00:52:28we're done
00:52:29have a nice life
00:52:31how could you do that to me?
00:52:34we've been together since middle school
00:52:36have you?
00:52:37I wasn't even positive you guys were dating
00:52:40well
00:52:42we've taken a lot of breaks
00:52:43or whatever
00:52:44but
00:52:45the love has been there the whole time
00:52:47we were going to grow old together
00:52:50that really sucks
00:52:52nobody likes getting dumped
00:52:53but you know
00:52:54you're only 17
00:52:56there are plenty of other fish in the sea
00:52:58I don't want fish Morgan
00:53:00I want Katie
00:53:02I think what she's trying to say
00:53:04is that it hurts now
00:53:06but
00:53:07you'll find someone new
00:53:08and it won't feel so bad
00:53:10you really think so?
00:53:12yeah man I know so
00:53:14right now
00:53:15it feels like my heart
00:53:16has been just torn into two
00:53:20she was the love of my life
00:53:23you're literally hitting on a different girl
00:53:25every other day
00:53:26what did you expect?
00:53:27I have a flirty personality Morgan
00:53:30Katie actually understands that
00:53:32yeah but no girl wants to feel like she's competing for your attention
00:53:35no girl wants to feel like she's competing for your attention
00:53:38but you also shouldn't have to change who you are in order to make a girl happy
00:53:42it's not about changing who you are it's about making her feel special
00:53:45girl wants to feel like a priority
00:53:47well not every guy can live up to all that pressure and expectation
00:53:50so
00:53:51I should be myself but also be who she wants me to be
00:53:55since when is being romantic a lot of pressure?
00:53:57it's part of being in a relationship
00:53:59so is doing what the other person wants to do
00:54:01sometimes
00:54:02okay I think I'm lost
00:54:05are we still talking about me?
00:54:07Sam when you have a girlfriend you shouldn't be trying to pick up other girls
00:54:11plain and simple
00:54:12if you want Katie back you're gonna have to stop flirting with everyone else
00:54:17oh so now this is my fault
00:54:19Sam I think I know what you need to do
00:54:22you do?
00:54:23you do?
00:54:24you do?
00:54:25yeah
00:54:26but
00:54:27Morgan I'm gonna have to pause you for a second
00:54:29Sam and I need to talk about this guy to guy
00:54:31seriously?
00:54:32trust me
00:54:33what?
00:54:34what?
00:54:35what?
00:55:06What did you guys talk about?
00:55:14Just guy stuff.
00:55:15I gotta go find Katie.
00:55:17Liam, I cannot thank you enough.
00:55:20You ever need anything, I'm your guy.
00:55:23You got yourself a good one here, Morgan.
00:55:25Hang on to him.
00:55:27Thanks.
00:55:27I will.
00:55:36So, guy stuff, what did you guys talk about?
00:55:41I just told him that when you meet the right person, whether you're 12 or 17 or 30, you
00:55:50have to man up and make sure she knows how much you value her.
00:55:54Because the right person doesn't just come along every day.
00:56:01And when you love someone, you have to make sure that they know that.
00:56:08Oh.
00:56:10I love you, Morgan.
00:56:13Oh.
00:56:13And I don't want to go any longer without saying it because it's true.
00:56:19You are the most important thing to me.
00:56:20Not the drive-in, not Sam Raimi, not Sam Hitchens for that matter.
00:56:24Just you.
00:56:26So, if you want to go to our first dance as a couple together, I'd be honored to take you.
00:56:31That means a lot to me.
00:56:36Although, while you guys were on the phone, I did a little digging.
00:56:41We'd have to miss the first movie, but if we go to the dance first and cut out early,
00:56:47we're going to make it for the last three.
00:56:50So, you mean the Evil Dead, Sam Raimi, and I get to see you all dressed up?
00:56:58That's a date.
00:56:59Perfect.
00:57:01Too bad we had to get in a fight to figure that out.
00:57:04You know, we don't fight enough.
00:57:06Maybe we should do it more.
00:57:08No, thank you.
00:57:13Alright, I should let you go.
00:57:15I know you're normally in bed right now.
00:57:18Good night, Morgan.
00:57:20Hey, Liam?
00:57:22Yeah.
00:57:25I love you, too.
00:57:31What's up?
00:57:38Hey, what you doing?
00:57:41Baking cookies.
00:57:43Baking?
00:57:45What?
00:57:46Nothing.
00:57:46Just, you don't usually bake.
00:57:48It's for the bake sale.
00:57:51Oh, cool.
00:57:52I'm sure it'll be a big hit, then.
00:57:53Shouldn't you be at soccer practice?
00:57:56Yeah, so, uh, weird thing.
00:57:58Practice was canceled today and the rest of the week because apparently the football team
00:58:02needs the field.
00:58:04What?
00:58:04That's not fair.
00:58:05Yeah, I know.
00:58:06It sucks.
00:58:07The coach won't tell us much more and, I don't know, maybe we'll just have to practice in
00:58:11the park or something.
00:58:12You guys deserve your practice space.
00:58:14Let me call Devon and see what I can find out.
00:58:16That would be awesome.
00:58:19Call you back.
00:58:20Okay.
00:58:20Bye.
00:58:21Hey, girl.
00:58:32How's the baking going?
00:58:34Really great.
00:58:37Listen, do you know what's going on with the field?
00:58:40Liam said soccer practice was canceled because of football.
00:58:43Oh, you haven't heard?
00:58:45Heard what?
00:58:46Heard what?
00:58:47Derek is getting the football team to double up on practices.
00:58:51to get them ready for their big game coming up against the Trojans.
00:58:54So what?
00:58:55He's just canceling soccer practice?
00:58:57He doesn't own the field.
00:58:59I know.
00:59:00It's a total abuse of power.
00:59:02But when you are captain of the football team, class president and teacher's pet,
00:59:08apparently you get whatever you want.
00:59:10But what is the soccer team supposed to do?
00:59:13Look, this isn't the first time that Derek has done something like this and it won't be
00:59:18the last.
00:59:18It's male privilege and he thinks he can get away with it.
00:59:23But we don't have to let him.
00:59:26What do you mean?
00:59:28I mean, I want to run for president this year and unseat him.
00:59:32You're a VP.
00:59:33A VP has never run against a sitting president.
00:59:36And yeah, not yet, but I like making history.
00:59:41And I think it would be cool if you consider running with me.
00:59:45As secretary?
00:59:47No, as my VP.
00:59:49Two women in charge.
00:59:51Think about it.
00:59:52I just wouldn't want to do anything to lose my spot in student council altogether.
00:59:57You're thinking about this all wrong, Morgan.
01:00:00We won't lose.
01:00:02You know how persuasive you can be.
01:00:04You convinced me to go out with Antoine and now for the cutest item in school.
01:00:09Besides you and Liam, of course.
01:00:11Just tell me.
01:00:14You'll think about it.
01:00:15I will.
01:00:17Right now, I need to talk to Derek.
01:00:20Good luck with that.
01:00:27Morgan, how's it going?
01:00:29Um, great.
01:00:30Just making cookies for the bake sale.
01:00:33Oh, I'm sure they're going to be amazing.
01:00:34You're such a good baker.
01:00:35Am I?
01:00:36I don't think you've ever seen me bake.
01:00:38Well, you're good at everything, so I guess I assumed.
01:00:43So listen, I was calling about the whole practice field situation.
01:00:47Oh yeah, have you heard how good the football team is this year?
01:00:50Haven't you guys lost every game?
01:00:52Well, yeah, but that's why we're doubling down on our practices.
01:00:55So we can kill it next weekend when we play the Trojans and make the school proud.
01:00:59But Derek, with all your extra practices,
01:01:01you're taking time away from the soccer team.
01:01:04I'm not doing anything.
01:01:05Principal Lee approved it, and the soccer team can practice anywhere.
01:01:08We need to be on that field.
01:01:11But so do they.
01:01:12Soccer and football have their practices worked out for a reason,
01:01:15so that it's fair to everyone.
01:01:17It's just, I was talking to Liam.
01:01:19Oh.
01:01:20Liam?
01:01:20You guys are still together then?
01:01:22Yes, we are.
01:01:23How are things with you and Anika?
01:01:25I ended things.
01:01:27For good this time.
01:01:29She just doesn't get me, you know?
01:01:32Yeah, sorry to hear that.
01:01:34I thought you called because you wanted to be friends, Morgan.
01:01:37After everything that happened last year,
01:01:39it's always been kind of awkward to be around you.
01:01:42It's disappointing to know that you're only calling so you can help out Liam.
01:01:45Derek, we are friends.
01:01:47I'm just trying to make sure everything's fair.
01:01:49That's what student council does.
01:01:51We represent the student body.
01:01:53Represent the student body, not pull special favors for our boyfriends.
01:01:57You're pulling special favors for yourself.
01:02:00That's different.
01:02:01If the football team wins, the whole school wins.
01:02:04These extra practices aren't everyone's best interest.
01:02:07Unbelievable.
01:02:08Devin was right about you.
01:02:10Devin?
01:02:11What does Devin have anything to do with this?
01:02:13There's a hierarchy to student council, and she answers to me.
01:02:16For now.
01:02:17Well, but if people are unhappy with your leadership, don't get too comfortable off the top.
01:02:23That's absurd.
01:02:25Nobody unseats a sitting president.
01:02:27Besides, she wouldn't dare.
01:02:29I need this for my college applications.
01:02:31Everyone needs it for their college applications.
01:02:34You're not the only one who cares about this stuff.
01:02:37Morgan, do you know how hard it is for a South Asian male to get into Harvard?
01:02:41It's practically impossible.
01:02:44Did you know that Derek isn't even my real name?
01:02:47It's Del Pinder.
01:02:48No one named Del Pinder gets elected student body president.
01:02:52But I have to do whatever it takes to stand out from every other guy from a small town with
01:02:57immigrant parents.
01:02:59How many of those guys do you think are captain of their football team?
01:03:01Huh?
01:03:03Zero.
01:03:03It doesn't matter if our team sucks, or that I don't even like football.
01:03:08It gives my application an edge.
01:03:11There's only so many spots at Harvard for someone like me, and I plan to secure one.
01:03:14And I won't let anyone take that from me.
01:03:18That really sucks.
01:03:20Feeling like you have to change who you are in order for anyone to take you seriously.
01:03:24I just have no idea the pressure that I'm under for my parents, school.
01:03:28Everyone expects something from me.
01:03:30Everyone wants something from me.
01:03:32And you're the first person to ever reject me.
01:03:35I never even knew what that felt like, because I was so used to pleasing everyone all the
01:03:40time.
01:03:40Oh, well, you're welcome, I guess.
01:03:44Even though you were the one person that I didn't want to disappoint.
01:03:48Look, I understand being under a lot of pressure.
01:03:51But if you don't want to disappoint everyone, let the soccer team have their practice time
01:03:55back.
01:03:56Being a captain isn't just about winning, it's about leadership.
01:04:00And the soccer team needs your support.
01:04:03You're right.
01:04:04I wasn't being fair to those guys.
01:04:07I'll call the principal and tell them that I want to switch the schedules back.
01:04:10It's the right thing to do.
01:04:12And I know everyone will appreciate it.
01:04:15Or, shall I say, Del Peder?
01:04:18Wow.
01:04:19No one ever calls me by my real name.
01:04:21I like hearing you say it.
01:04:25You should try it out sometime.
01:04:26It's cool to be unique.
01:04:28People might surprise you.
01:04:31Yeah.
01:04:32Maybe.
01:04:33I'll see you at school.
01:04:36How was Mr. President?
01:04:53I know he can be a bit much, but we should cut him some slack.
01:04:58He's got a lot on his plate.
01:05:00And he let the soccer team have their practice time back.
01:05:04He so got you.
01:05:06What do you mean?
01:05:07That Derek charm.
01:05:09It's how he gets what he wants.
01:05:11But I got what I want.
01:05:13The soccer team has their practice time back.
01:05:15Yeah, and he got what he wants, Morgan.
01:05:18You think he's a decent guy again.
01:05:20He's good.
01:05:21I'll give him that.
01:05:23Always a politician.
01:05:25But it's not like he did all of that on purpose.
01:05:28Maybe.
01:05:29Maybe not.
01:05:31But politics means getting people to see what you want them to believe.
01:05:35Whether it's the truth or not.
01:05:39I already made up my mind that I'm running this year.
01:05:42And I could use a smart, creative woman
01:05:45with interpersonal skills like you on my ticket.
01:05:49You don't have to say yes, but I really think you should.
01:05:54Okay.
01:05:55I'll think about it.
01:05:56Do that.
01:05:58Oh, and Morgan?
01:06:00Uh-huh.
01:06:01Maybe scrap those for the bake sale.
01:06:04They don't look too appetizing.
01:06:07Later, girl.
01:06:15Yo, I just heard soccer practice was back on.
01:06:33How'd you pull that off?
01:06:35I'm a smart, creative woman with interpersonal skills.
01:06:38I use my political prowess.
01:06:40Oh.
01:06:40I never, uh, I never thought of you as a politician before.
01:06:44Of course I am.
01:06:45I'm on student council.
01:06:47Yeah, but, you know, secretary.
01:06:48I mean, I thought organization was more your speed.
01:06:53Whoa, did you make those?
01:06:54Those look amazing.
01:06:57Uh, yeah.
01:06:59Cool.
01:06:59I'm going to have to come over after practice and try one, though.
01:07:01Sounds good.
01:07:03Have fun.
01:07:04All right.
01:07:05Bye.
01:07:05Politics means showing the people who want them to believe whether it's the truth or not.
01:07:30We got classic wood stain, bold blue.
01:07:35Neon yellow.
01:07:36Yeah, I don't think that little thing's going to stretch around the treehouse, but it would definitely get people's attention.
01:07:41I vote wood stain.
01:07:43It's a classic.
01:07:44But whatever we do, it's going to have to wait.
01:07:48I'm jumping on a call with a new student in a few minutes.
01:07:50But it's a Saturday.
01:07:51Shouldn't you be doing that during school hours?
01:07:54Well, Principal Lee specifically asked me to take Ashley under my wing and make her feel welcome.
01:07:59I've been texting Ashley all week, and she seems really cool.
01:08:02We have so much in common.
01:08:05I'm excited to meet her.
01:08:06That's cool, yeah.
01:08:07I'm glad you're getting along.
01:08:08What do you think?
01:08:10It's bright.
01:08:12Well, you have fun, and we will paint the treehouse when you're done.
01:08:16I've got my overalls ready.
01:08:18Perfect.
01:08:18I was looking for Ashley.
01:08:28Is she, um, is she there?
01:08:30Oh, man.
01:08:32You know this always happens?
01:08:33What always happens?
01:08:35Well, people always get confused when your parents give you a girl's name.
01:08:38Oh.
01:08:40You're Ashley?
01:08:41Yep, the one and only.
01:08:43But you can call me Ash.
01:08:44Oh.
01:08:46Um.
01:08:47Hi, Ash.
01:08:49So, how did the nail color work out?
01:08:52Neon yellow is a bold choice.
01:08:54Um.
01:08:56It's bright.
01:08:57I love it.
01:08:58It's way better than that pink pearl.
01:09:00This makes a statement.
01:09:01Why do you know so much about nail polish?
01:09:04I have three older sisters.
01:09:06It comes with the territory.
01:09:09Hey, you didn't tell me you played the guitar?
01:09:10Oh, yeah.
01:09:12Well, kind of.
01:09:14I'm still learning.
01:09:16This guy, Antoine, has been giving me guitar lessons.
01:09:19He's the guy who's dating your friend, Devin, right?
01:09:21Right.
01:09:23Good memory.
01:09:24Well, when you're always moving around and starting new schools, you get really good at keeping track of names.
01:09:29Yeah, that must be hard.
01:09:31Never staying in the same place for too long.
01:09:34You can be.
01:09:35But luckily, my family's really tight.
01:09:37Plus, now I have friends all over the place, and that's pretty cool.
01:09:41Yeah, that is cool.
01:09:43Everyone I know grew up in the same town.
01:09:47So, do you have any siblings?
01:09:49I don't.
01:09:50I always wished I did, though.
01:09:52Although, I did grow up as friends with my next-door neighbor, so there's that, I guess.
01:09:57That's cool.
01:09:58Are you guys still tight?
01:10:01Mm-hmm.
01:10:01Well, now that I know you play the guitar, maybe we can jam some time.
01:10:07I've been trying to teach myself to play the drums.
01:10:11How do you teach yourself to play the drums?
01:10:14Oh, it's easy.
01:10:15I've just been watching a bunch of YouTube videos.
01:10:17Drums are all about rhythm, and I've got plenty of them.
01:10:23Well, the dance team is going to love you.
01:10:25Oh, I don't know about that one.
01:10:29Dangers scare me, you know?
01:10:32Why?
01:10:34Anybody with that much discipline is just waiting to boil over.
01:10:37Or they're incredibly free because movement is their outlet.
01:10:41Huh.
01:10:42You're a glass-half-full kind of girl, aren't you?
01:10:44I try to be.
01:10:48That's cool.
01:10:49Me too.
01:10:49So it's in the middle of the night.
01:11:15The car breaks down on the side of the road.
01:11:16My mom is in a panic, my dad's trying to solve everything,
01:11:19and my little brother has his headphones on.
01:11:21He can't even be bothered.
01:11:23But nobody has signal, so it feels like the end of the world, right?
01:11:27Of course.
01:11:28So I'm freaking out, you know?
01:11:30I'm starting to think, like, we really might be in trouble here.
01:11:33And then this car pulls up behind us with no headlights on.
01:11:36Everyone starts to panic.
01:11:37So my dad tells my mom, get back into the car.
01:11:40Meanwhile, I'm ready to fight this guy.
01:11:42Then he walks out into the light, and, uh...
01:11:45And?
01:11:46And it's my dad's new boss.
01:11:48It turns out we were a quarter mile from town
01:11:51if we had just looked through the trees.
01:11:54No!
01:11:55Yes.
01:11:56They sent out a big group to search for us
01:11:58because they threw this welcome party, and we never showed up.
01:12:01Oh, my God.
01:12:03Well, was it a good party?
01:12:05Well, after thinking we were going to die on the side of the highway,
01:12:08yeah, it was great.
01:12:10No way.
01:12:10I bet you and your dad could have held off any highway killers.
01:12:14Oh, you know we would have.
01:12:15I didn't realize what time it was.
01:12:25We've been talking for over three hours.
01:12:28Have we?
01:12:29You didn't even notice.
01:12:31Do you have somewhere to be?
01:12:32No, I just...
01:12:33I was supposed to help Liam with this project, and...
01:12:36Oh, who's Liam?
01:12:37My, uh...
01:12:38My neighbor.
01:12:40Oh, that's right.
01:12:41The best friend.
01:12:41Yeah, and also my boyfriend.
01:12:46Oh.
01:12:48Lucky guy.
01:12:50Uh, well, we wouldn't want to keep Liam waiting any longer.
01:12:55Um, I've already taken up too much of your Saturday.
01:12:57No, it was nice.
01:13:00You're so easy to talk to.
01:13:02Well, you too.
01:13:04Um, hey, look.
01:13:07Uh, my family gets into town next week.
01:13:09I was hoping maybe you'd want to have coffee with me.
01:13:13Uh, meet in person before my first day of school.
01:13:16That is, if it's okay with Liam, of course.
01:13:19Of course it would be.
01:13:20I'd love that.
01:13:23I can show you around downtown.
01:13:25I was hoping you'd say that.
01:13:27Just let me know when you get here.
01:13:30Okay, awesome.
01:13:30I can't wait.
01:13:32Once I start school, everyone's going to be wondering how I'm already friends with the
01:13:35prettiest girl on campus.
01:13:39See you soon, Ash.
01:13:41See you around.
01:13:50What am I doing?
01:13:57What am I doing?
01:14:02Hey, where have you been?
01:14:04I thought we were going to do the treehouse.
01:14:06I'm so sorry, Liam.
01:14:07I totally lost track of time and I wasn't looking at my phone.
01:14:11Can I come over now?
01:14:12Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
01:14:13How did it go with Ashley?
01:14:14Is she your new BFF?
01:14:16Oh, um, funny story.
01:14:18Ashley, Ashley is actually Ash.
01:14:22She's a he.
01:14:23Oh.
01:14:26That's cool.
01:14:27Yeah, um, he seems nice and you guys would totally get along great.
01:14:33Maybe you could introduce him to the soccer team.
01:14:35Yeah, yeah, we could always, uh, use another good player.
01:14:40Well, I'll be over in a minute, okay?
01:14:43Cool, I'll be in the backyard.
01:14:48I'll be in the backyard.
01:14:50I'll be in the backyard.
01:14:53I'll be in the backyard.
01:14:55Holy shit, boy.
01:15:16I don't know.
