00:00:00Hey, Ava Darling.
00:00:16Declan, what are you doing?
00:00:17That's a beautiful name.
00:00:19Ava Darling.
00:00:22Makes sense, I guess.
00:00:24Beautiful name for a beautiful girl.
00:00:28Right. Did you, like, hit your head or something, Declan?
00:00:31You do know how beautiful you are, don't you?
00:00:41You are so not good at that.
00:00:44What?
00:00:45Is that like your first kiss or something?
00:00:48Got him.
00:00:50Oh, my God.
00:00:51I can't believe she thought a guy would actually be interested in her.
00:00:55There's a reason you're a virgin, loser.
00:01:11You guys really need to find new shit to laugh about?
00:01:14Hunter, what the fuck?
00:01:18You good?
00:01:19Enough, everyone.
00:01:24Let's get to class.
00:01:26Go learn something.
00:01:30Hunter.
00:01:32Just a man I wanted to see.
00:01:33Oh, practice ran late.
00:01:43I didn't have time to study.
00:01:45Life lasts longer than the duration of a soccer season.
00:01:49You need to start thinking about your future.
00:01:52And you deserve a future, Hunter.
00:01:55I know you're better than this.
00:01:57One more F, and you're off the team.
00:01:59And finally, please remember there are Narcon injectors available at the front office.
00:02:07Stay safe and study hard.
00:02:10Don't you know it's not enough to be smart anymore?
00:02:13You're going to have to be willing to play dirty, too.
00:02:16Is that why you keep cheating your way to valedictorian?
00:02:19Just because you're the frontrunner now
00:02:21doesn't mean you won't have a little accident for the school years out.
00:02:25You know, it was so easy to get you alone with my cousin this morning.
00:02:32You know, he's not afraid to beat up a girl.
00:02:36You should keep that in mind.
00:02:37You should keep that in mind.
00:03:07Ava, can I talk to you?
00:03:13It's Hunter.
00:03:14I promise you're safe.
00:03:15Why do you carry around travel-sized lotion-infused tissues?
00:03:35So I can help damsels in distress like you?
00:03:43No, I'm kidding.
00:03:44My little sister gets nosebleeds, so I just keep them with me.
00:03:51Look, I wanted to ask you if you'd ever consider starting a study group with me.
00:03:54Like, I think we could be a good team and you could call it, I don't know, payback for helping you out earlier?
00:04:02Thanks, but no thanks.
00:04:04I can take care of myself.
00:04:07Really?
00:04:07You know, I heard what Jessica was saying to you out there.
00:04:13I could, um, I could offer you protection.
00:04:18For a couple of those days, you're always getting.
00:04:21And how would you protect me?
00:04:23I think Jessica and Declan would, you know, stop bothering you if they thought you were my girlfriend.
00:04:33But aren't you and, um, Jessica...
00:04:36Fuckin'.
00:04:37No, not anymore.
00:04:40Right, but why not just friends?
00:04:43Because Jessica and Declan think guys and girls can't, you know, just be friends.
00:04:51So, you want to be my fake boyfriend for protection in exchange for me giving you all the answers to everything?
00:05:00Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
00:05:03I mean, I think it sounds like a good idea.
00:05:05Would you ever be, I don't know, interested in something like that?
00:05:08You're such a man, boy.
00:05:14You know what, Hunter?
00:05:15Why don't you take your offer and shove it up your ass?
00:05:18You run?
00:05:48There he is.
00:05:54My best salesman.
00:06:05I didn't come here to watch you grope your jailbait girlfriend.
00:06:09Fuck off, Hunter.
00:06:10Hey, Drew, you want me to show this kid his place?
00:06:13That fuckin' mouth of yours.
00:06:22I pay all your bills, and you give me shit?
00:06:26You could stand to be a bit more grateful, you know?
00:06:29You're the one who came to me with that pathetic sob story about your little sister.
00:06:32Please, Mr. Carter, you don't understand.
00:06:36She's sick.
00:06:37I need the money.
00:06:38Little bitch.
00:06:41I'd kick your disrespectful ass if my business partners weren't so pleased with your numbers.
00:06:46Remember that.
00:06:47Speaking of, we're throwing a party here this weekend to invite all your little high school friends.
00:06:56I want a big crowd.
00:06:57I got a new shipment of pills coming in, and I need my best salesman to be there to push them.
00:07:04Am I clear?
00:07:07Mm-hmm.
00:07:08You told Hunter Black to do what?
00:07:24Ava, you need to go back to him, apologize, and accept the deal.
00:07:28Why would I do that?
00:07:29Because if Jessica can't mess with you outside of the classroom,
00:07:32that means she'll have to beat you for valedictorian the old-fashioned way.
00:07:35And we all know that'll never happen.
00:07:38You gotta stop with those.
00:07:44Lauren Cabot overdosed on those last year.
00:07:46Because she was partying, cutting it with other drugs.
00:07:49You don't see me doing that, do you?
00:07:52I still think there's a better way to focus.
00:07:54And I still think you should take Hunter up on his offer.
00:07:58If you hurry, you could catch him after soccer practice.
00:08:01You know what?
00:08:02It's a great idea.
00:08:04Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
00:08:08Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
00:08:08What about me?
00:08:10Hey Brewer?
00:08:14I don't know.
00:08:17Lori?
00:08:17Oh.
00:08:18Jackie Spider is about there always.
00:08:20It's different when I getbooks to go on.

00:08:25When I was a king for Whoa1varoo Pantheon,
00:08:26I stayed for a braucht.

00:15:44so
00:15:46um
00:15:48how long do we have to stay in here in order to sell it
00:15:52about an hour i'd say
00:15:56is that how long you stay with girls you actually like
00:16:00i don't bring girls in here
00:16:02but this is like the
00:16:04prime time like hookup spot on campus
00:16:06yeah but like you i actually have standards
00:16:10you
00:16:12can i ask you a question
00:16:14are you a virgin
00:16:18you don't have to answer that i'm just
00:16:20you know i'm curious because
00:16:22you're a pretty girl and i
00:16:24figure you could
00:16:26get a boyfriend like a real boyfriend
00:16:28if you wanted one
00:16:30i'll get lucky at college next year
00:16:32i'll find another
00:16:34engineering student and he'll help me
00:16:36change the world for the better
00:16:38also
00:16:40dabble in some regency romance novels
00:16:42and
00:16:44look like a young timothy chalamet
00:16:46so the exact opposite of me
00:16:50what about you then
00:16:52plenty of hookups
00:16:54no real girlfriends
00:16:56you really a man whore
00:17:00you wanna find out
00:17:02what if i do
00:17:12do you really think that line would work
00:17:14huh
00:17:28did on jessica
00:17:30let me guess your situation shift ended so bad that you swore off real dating forever
00:17:36no
00:17:38no
00:17:40no
00:17:42no i mean it was bad like definitely bad but
00:17:44i think it's uh
00:17:46i think it's more to do with
00:17:48with uh with money
00:17:50i'm at this school on scholarship and
00:17:52i lose a scholarship
00:17:54i lose the opportunity to play in front of college scouts
00:17:56and if i lose that opportunity
00:17:58i can't go to college because obviously
00:18:00you know i don't have a college fund
00:18:02even though i work a bunch of jobs
00:18:04but it's like at the end of the month
00:18:06when the bills come in all my money's just gone
00:18:08so i guess my point is that i can afford a girlfriend
00:18:20for the record
00:18:22the right girl won't care about money
00:18:24she'll just want someone who cares
00:18:26and
00:18:28you know not to
00:18:30give you a bigger ego than you already have
00:18:32but
00:18:34i think you'd actually make a pretty
00:18:36okay boyfriend
00:18:38come on
00:18:52dish already tell me what happened in the nurse's office
00:18:54i mean

00:19:04we just talked
00:19:06really
00:19:08but
00:19:10it was nice i guess

00:22:56these can help visually impaired users do everyday tasks
00:22:58see this part right here
00:23:00see this part right here
00:23:02it provides a color recognition
00:23:04and if the user presses this button here
00:23:06it uses a voice app to say out loud the color of the objects in their hands
00:23:10best of all
00:23:12the user can help recognize the value of money if the user wants to use cash to buy something
00:23:16and it can even help with self defense
00:23:18it can really do all that
00:23:20well it should
00:23:22these are just prototypes and i'm still working on the voice app but
00:23:24it should be finished by the time the all-state science fair comes around
00:23:28prize money's like 15k
00:23:30damn i gotta get into robotics
00:23:32the money can help expand my work
00:23:34and i'll start college next year off with an edge

00:27:23A trick of the trade?
00:27:27Oh, soccer's too important to be hungover all the time.
00:27:31Doesn't it get annoying?
00:27:32Pretending all the time.
00:27:34Pretending to drink.
00:27:35Pretending you're not as smart as you really are.
00:27:38Pretending you're not a total softbee.
00:27:41Don't want my cover?
00:27:42I used to hate being unpopular.
00:27:46It gets lonely sometimes.
00:27:50But at least I can never pretend to be anything but me.
00:27:55Hunter, there you are.
00:27:58Drew wants a word with you.
00:28:00Fuck.

00:28:24You work when I tell you to work.
00:28:27Understood?
00:28:28Yeah.
00:28:29Now, stay here.
00:28:33My boy is coming with some dope.
00:28:34Then we're heading right back out there to push.
00:28:36I still got pills.
00:28:37I can get them all out tonight.
00:28:38No.
00:28:39Fresh shipment just came in.
00:28:41New suppliers, new shit.
00:28:44Saw it that you brought a girl, by the way.
00:28:47Pretty little thing.
00:28:49She's not gonna be a problem now, is she?
00:28:52No, she doesn't matter, no.
00:29:00Good.
00:29:22What, did the cops recruit you or something?
00:29:24Are you here to narc on us, get us all arrested?
00:29:27I'm here with Hunter.
00:29:29So that's how you've been keeping up with me.
00:29:42I'd say eat a dick, but we both know no guy would ever touch you.
00:29:49Hunter can dress you up all you want.
00:29:53But everyone at this party knows you'll always be below us.
00:29:57Hunter accepts me just fine.
00:30:00And he wants to touch me.
00:30:03Please.
00:30:06You barely even know him.
00:30:09Where is he?
00:30:10Right now?
00:30:13That's what I thought.
00:30:16He's already gotten bored of you.
00:30:18Gone back to his own kind.
00:30:20Where do you think you are going?
00:30:27What the hell are you doing?
00:30:31Reminding you of your place.
00:30:32No.
00:30:39Go ahead.
00:30:41Do you mind?
00:30:42I can't believe you're bleeding all over me.
00:30:45I don't want to catch whatever diseases you have.
00:30:48What the hell is wrong with you?
00:30:54Just proving a point.
00:30:57You're too delicate.
00:30:59Too weak to be with someone like Hunter.
00:31:01Ava, darling, huh?
00:31:27Those high school girls, man.
00:31:33They'll get your ass in a lot of trouble.
00:31:36Which reminds me.
00:31:38Do you remember that girl that Declan started to bring around the warehouse last year?
00:31:43Lauren Cabot?
00:31:43Yeah, Lauren.
00:31:46Sweet girl.
00:31:48Too bad she didn't know how to keep her mouth shut.
00:31:52Heard her asking way too many questions.
00:31:55And then that overdose.
00:32:00What did you do?
00:32:02All I did was offer her a couple pills.
00:32:05How was I supposed to know that she was going to be mixing them?
00:32:09Word of advice.
00:32:11Keep your shit separate.
00:32:13I would just hate to see your new girlfriend getting way over her head.
00:32:35Holy shit, that's going to take forever to move.
00:32:37You got two weeks.
00:32:39That's impossible.
00:32:40It better not be.
00:32:43Good.
00:32:50Now you get this done before the next shipment comes in.
00:32:53And there's a bonus with it.
00:32:55The powers that be are interested in expansion.
00:32:58Big time.
00:33:00And that means taking care of my guys.
00:33:03Hey!
00:33:04So you left me to hang out with your asshole friends?
00:33:06We're supposed to be dating, remember?
00:33:08I know, I know, I just...
00:33:11Because I'm keeping up my end of the deal.
00:33:13Doing all your work.
00:33:15I had to, okay?
00:33:15You just don't understand.
00:33:16Yeah, meanwhile, I just got eaten alive in there.
00:33:18And look at what your psycho ex just did.
00:33:20Fuck.
00:33:22I'm sorry, Ava.
00:33:23I wish I could have been in there.
00:33:24I really do.
00:33:24Could you just go, please?
00:33:26Somewhere else?
00:33:27Anywhere else?
00:33:28Is there a problem over here?
00:33:32Who the hell are you?
00:33:34None of your fucking business, sweetheart.
00:33:38I thought you said she didn't matter.
00:33:42Oh, I know.
00:33:43I hurt you.
00:33:48Go inside and wait for me.
00:33:49You do what I say.
00:33:54Attaboy.
00:33:54We're done.
00:34:04It's over.
00:34:04What? No, Ava, that was...
00:34:05What the hell am I getting out of the deal?
00:34:07You won't even protect me from your own friends.
00:34:09I'm trying, okay?
00:34:10You just don't know everything.
00:34:11I know what I see.
00:34:13And it's bullshit.
00:34:16Just like one of your assignments.
00:34:18Something you start but can't finish.
00:34:21Ava, don't.
00:34:24What the hell am I doing?
00:34:41What the hell am I doing?
00:34:44What this?
00:34:44Red. Apples. Only.
00:35:14What? Where have you been?
00:35:38Does it matter? I'm here now.
00:35:40It's too late. I've finished the test and I have to get to first period.
00:35:44Then what do you want from me, Ava?
00:35:47What is wrong with you?
00:35:48I'm just so tired of you judging, judging, judging all the time.
00:35:53Thinking you're so much better than everyone else. Better than me.
00:35:56I've never thought that about you.
00:36:02Lily, you're really worrying me.
00:36:06Save it. Worry about yourself.
00:36:10I know you don't want to talk to me.
00:36:26Just so I can, you know, keep up my end of the deal.
00:36:33After the whole Jessica thing, I just want you to be able to protect yourself.
00:36:37Ava.
00:36:49I'm really sorry.
00:36:50I, uh, I, I did the reading.
00:36:58You read Their Eyes Were Watching God.
00:37:01Okay, maybe I listened to the audio book.
00:37:03But remember that part after chapter eight, like, just after Joe dies?
00:37:08It got me thinking about how sometimes you don't realize you're treating someone like shit until after it's too late.
00:37:14And, you know, you wish you could have realized sooner.
00:37:16And I guess I just realized, you know, or I, I, I wish I realized sooner.
00:37:22Well, better late than never, I guess.
00:37:33Do you want to go eat lunch?
00:37:37You know, I'm going to be alone, and I thought maybe you are going to be alone, or actually, maybe you're not.
00:37:43I'm sorry.
00:37:43I'm just going to go.
00:37:44What is it with all the people I care about just suddenly forgoing basic self-care?
00:38:06So you care about me?
00:38:08Don't get a big head about it.
00:38:11You're like a stray dog that looks tough, but really just wants a belly rub.
00:38:16Does this mean we can be friends?
00:38:19Sure.
00:38:20Friends.
00:38:27I don't have many friends that look at me like that.
00:38:30No, I, I wasn't.
00:38:31But, um, anyways, um, I didn't finish your assignment, but I did tell you how to finish it yourself quickly, too, so it doesn't take up too much time away from your soccer practice.
00:38:56Oh.
00:38:59That's really nice of you, Ava.
00:39:01You know, I think we, uh, we better get to class before we're late.
00:39:11You know, because I'm really into that kind of stuff now.
00:39:13You know, I think we're going to be like, oh, it's just a little weird, and we're going to be like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:39:18Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:39:24You know, I know.
00:39:25Oh.
00:39:26Oh, oh, oh.
00:39:58Lily?
00:40:04Lily?
00:40:11Lily!
00:40:13Lily!
00:40:15Lily!
00:40:15Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Lily, Lily!
00:40:18Okay, come on, Lily, stay with me, please.
00:40:20Oh, my God.
00:40:24God, Lily!
00:40:25Lily, hey, hey, hey.
00:40:27Come on, stay with me.
00:40:28Stay with me.
00:40:30Lily, Lily, Lily.
00:40:32Stay with me, please.
00:40:33Hey, hey, hey, hey, stay with me, girl.
00:40:34Stay with me.
00:40:36Come on, please, Lily, please.
00:40:38Hey, hey!
00:40:40Lily.
00:40:45Please, send an ambulance.
00:40:46My best friend, she took something and she's not waking up.
00:40:50Help!
00:40:51Help, please!
00:40:52Please!
00:40:52I don't know.
00:41:22I don't know.
00:41:52I'm going to take this.
00:41:55What do you mean?
00:41:56I got you.
00:41:56I'm going to take this.
00:42:26It's terrible.
00:42:27Is she okay?
00:42:29She will be.
00:42:30I just talked to her parents, but...
00:42:33God, if I would have given her the Narcan any later...
00:42:37She has to go to some sober high school or something, and...
00:42:42I'll have no one.
00:42:43I'm so sorry. I had no idea.
00:42:52There's a silver lining, at least.
00:42:55I made an anonymous call to the principal.
00:42:58They're doing a drug search of Declan's locker first thing tomorrow morning.
00:43:13It's clean.
00:43:17All right, everyone. Foss and Lyle. Let's move it along. Back to class.
00:43:23Do you know how much my parents donated to this school when I got in?
00:43:28You'll be getting a call from them very soon.
00:43:37When I find out who did this, and I will find out.
00:43:43You are going to pay.
00:43:58Oh, damn it.
00:44:01Gotta win it for the both of us now.
00:44:10When did you get out of the hospital?
00:44:12How old?
00:44:12About an hour ago, a 72-hour hold let up. I just came to school to pick up my stuff.
00:44:20Look, I know I ruined my life, but I...
00:44:24That's not true. It's always possible to start over.
00:44:29And you still have me?
00:44:31Yeah. Thanks for saving my life, by the way.
00:44:34Just don't make me do it again.
00:44:35I should go. My mom and dad are waiting.
00:44:40See you soon.
00:44:41See you soon.
00:44:57That was soon.
00:44:58You know what they say about snitches, right?
00:45:04I warned you, didn't I?
00:45:13I told you to keep your shit separate.
00:45:29If we didn't orchestrate the drug search, come on, bro.
00:45:33Right.
00:45:34Now, if you didn't bring in that shady shipment, none of this shit would have happened.
00:45:39Fentanyl? I never agreed to sell that shit, bro.
00:45:41Keep your fucking voice down.
00:45:43If you don't like it, you can leave.
00:45:46Yeah, I'll leave. I want out.
00:45:51That's fine.
00:45:53You can go.
00:45:54I'm not tripping.
00:45:56Just as soon as you pay me back for what you ever sold.
00:46:00What?
00:46:03That money's got to come from somewhere, Hunter.
00:46:06You or your customers.
00:46:08I'll let you decide which.
00:46:10And don't worry.
00:46:12I'm not gonna touch Ava.
00:46:14I'm letting the girls figure it out themselves.
00:46:19Don't worry, Ava.
00:46:32I don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:35And I'm getting really tired of you insulting my intelligence.
00:46:40Fine.
00:46:50I did it.
00:46:51I called in the drug search.
00:46:53Happy?
00:46:55Oh, you're not going anywhere.
00:46:58You're going to pay for what you just tried to do to my family.
00:47:02And hey,
00:47:03maybe this will take you out of the valedictorian race, too.
00:47:07I'm going to kill you, Ava, darling.
00:47:15Ava!
00:47:18What happened?
00:47:19Are you okay?
00:47:20I'm fine, I'm fine.
00:47:20I am going to kill you, Ava, darling!
00:47:23I'm fine.
00:47:25Come on.
00:47:35We can hang here without anyone asking questions.
00:47:39My mom and my sister are in Arizona again.
00:47:42It's better than my place.
00:47:45My parents would ask a million questions.
00:47:49I thought they trusted you.
00:47:50They do.
00:47:54But I'm never home this early from the lab.
00:47:56They'd know something was wrong.
00:47:57Why are your mom and sister in Arizona?
00:48:09Oh, just a...
00:48:11Like a trip they go on every few weeks.
00:48:15It's because she's sick, right?
00:48:18Your sister, Leah?
00:48:19How do you...
00:48:23How do you know that?
00:48:26I found this in your mom's jacket.
00:48:36It's from her first hospital visit.
00:48:37I don't know why my mom keeps this stuff.
00:48:44I get it.
00:48:47Sometimes painful things are important to hold on to.
00:48:54She has leukemia.
00:48:58She's had it since she was a kid.
00:49:01And, you know, it went away, but a couple years ago it came back.
00:49:04And I guess since then everything's kind of just falling apart.
00:49:12Like, uh, my mom can only work a part-time job
00:49:16because she's got to take Leah in for all of her treatment,
00:49:19so we're stuck in the Section 8 department.
00:49:22And, you know, I...
00:49:23I offered to drop out of school and work full-time.
00:49:29But my mom refuses.
00:49:30She says Leah's going to grow up on her.
00:49:32And, you know, she's going to need a role model.
00:49:41Some role model I am, you know?
00:49:43You're a good guy, Hunter, but your friends...
00:49:46Your friends are psycho.
00:49:48Why do you even hang out with them?
00:49:52Loyalty.
00:49:53Nostalgia, I guess.
00:49:54I don't know.
00:49:55I mean, we were close when we were kids.
00:49:56But, you know, I guess I feel like you a lot of the time.
00:50:02You know how you said if you didn't have Lily, you'd have no one?
00:50:06Yeah, I...
00:50:09I don't know.
00:50:09I feel like I'm alone.
00:50:13Most of the time, honestly.
00:50:15Well, I guess it's good we have each other, then.
00:50:29Wait, I'm...
00:50:54I know you said nothing physical.
00:50:56What?
00:50:56When?
00:50:56Sounds like your first rule, no?
00:51:00Our deal is off, anyway.
00:51:02Oh, yeah, I forgot.
00:51:04Besides, I think we might have just broken your rule, too.
00:51:12Unless...
00:51:12You're not feeling the same things I'm feeling.
00:51:20Um...
00:51:21Right.
00:51:22Okay.
00:51:23My mistake.
00:51:25Emotions are running high today.
00:51:27You're being nice, and I shouldn't have read into that.
00:51:30Ava.
00:51:31Make signals much?
00:51:44I'm sorry, I'm just...
00:51:45I'm just really bad at talking about this stuff.
00:51:48But I promise you there's feelings.
00:51:51You make me feel brave enough to feel them.
00:51:52You make me feel brave, too.
00:52:14If you don't want to talk, that's okay.
00:52:19Why don't you show me...
00:52:22I thought you said you wanted to wait.
00:52:25Hunter,
00:52:26I trust you.
00:52:29Who knows when that will ever happen again.
00:52:35And I always want to be someone you can trust.
00:52:40Always.
00:52:41Always.
00:52:41We'll go slow, right?
00:53:05Mm-hmm.
00:53:06Slow as you want.
00:53:07And we can stop anytime.
00:53:12Okay.
00:53:13I'm ready.
00:53:22Mm.
00:53:24This feels good.
00:53:25I mean, it, like, tickles, but in a good way, you know?
00:53:31Should I...
00:53:32Should I take off my clothes?
00:53:34You know, because...
00:53:35Ava.
00:53:35Ava.
00:53:36Yeah.
00:53:38I think that's awesome.
00:53:40Bye.
00:53:43Right.
00:53:44Bye.
00:53:45Bye.
00:53:53Bye.
00:53:53Bye.
00:53:54Bye.
00:53:54Bye.
00:53:55Bye.
00:53:55Bye.
00:53:56Bye.
00:53:57Bye.
00:53:57Bye.
00:53:58Bye.
00:53:58Bye.
00:53:59Bye.
00:54:02See you next week.
00:54:02Bye.
00:54:03Bye.
00:54:04Bye.
00:54:04Can I say something?
00:54:30Has anyone ever stopped you from saying something?
00:54:35Hey, you like that about me?
00:54:37No, I do. What do you want to say?
00:54:40I'm really starving.
00:54:47Okay, why don't we go on a real date then?
00:54:53See a show and go to a dinner?
00:54:57A show?
00:54:58Okay, like a movie at the discount theater.
00:55:02Are you getting all lovey-dovey on me, Hunter Black?
00:55:05Are you saying yes?
00:55:08I'm saying of course.
00:55:11Okay, I admit, when you said dinner, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind.
00:55:21Not that I mind an affordable option. It's just, this is where you work and I don't want your mind to be on work all night.
00:55:32Trust me, my mind's gonna be on something else. I just have to drop something off. Something I should have dropped off a long time ago.
00:55:44Alright. Are you okay? You seem nervous.
00:55:58I don't know. I've just, I've never been on a real date before.
00:56:02Can I just come with you?
00:56:04Do you still trust me?
00:56:16I still trust you.
00:56:18I believe you?
00:56:20Go.
00:56:22I am so sorry.
00:56:24Good morning, everybody.
00:56:28I have to do it.
00:56:30I am so sorry.
00:56:34I am so sorry.
00:56:39Hey, who's there?
00:57:09Jesus, dude.
00:57:21You scared the shit out of me.
00:57:26What are you doing here?
00:57:39Hunter, where are you?
00:58:00I was worried you'd do something stupid, told me to watch the place.
00:58:07I guess he was right.
00:58:12Please, let me explain in the car.
00:58:23I tried giving you the benefit of the doubt, but of course you were involved with this
00:58:27the whole time.
00:58:27No, Ava, Ava, we can't be here right now.
00:58:29Did you sell them to her?
00:58:30The drugs slowly overdosed on?
00:58:32No, I didn't.
00:58:33I promised you I didn't.
00:58:34As soon as I found out the pills had fentanyl, let them stop.
00:58:37That's why I'm here.
00:58:37I'm giving everything back.
00:58:39Ava, I can't do this shit anymore.
00:58:41I don't want to do this shit anymore.
00:58:42You showed me that I can be better, Ava.
00:58:48I want to trust you.
00:58:51You still lied to me.
00:58:54Okay, I'm not asking you to trust me right now.
00:58:56I'm asking you to give me a chance to prove that you can.
00:58:58Because I love you, Ava.
00:59:02Don't, don't say that if you don't mean it.
00:59:10I mean it.
00:59:22I love you too.
00:59:23As long as I have you, I don't care what happens to me next.
00:59:36You know what we have to do, right?
00:59:38We have to go to the cops now.
00:59:44Look who we have here.
00:59:46Two for the price of one.
00:59:53I told you I wanted out.
00:59:57You really thought it was going to be that easy?
01:00:02I, I, I, where do you think you're going?
01:00:08Hey, let her go.
01:00:09Ah!
01:00:23Trust me, that next shot won't be in the air.
01:00:35To the warehouse.
01:00:37Now.
01:00:50Move.
01:00:51Hold, Hunter.
01:00:55The hell is wrong with you guys?
01:00:56This is crazy.
01:00:57No.
01:00:58This is survival.
01:01:02Look who it is.
01:01:11Hit her, baby.
01:01:14Ava!
01:01:15That's my girl.
01:01:18Tie her up.
01:01:21Hunter!
01:01:24Fucking let her go.
01:01:25Inside!
01:01:26Now!
01:01:37Come on, man.
01:01:38Don't do this.
01:01:39Oh.
01:01:43Declan, you killed Lauren.
01:01:46Her OD wasn't an accident, man.
01:01:48He's a monster.
01:01:49I know.
01:01:52You know, what are you...
01:01:53Aren't you fucking angry?
01:01:55Of course I'm fucking angry.
01:01:56What am I supposed to do about it, huh?
01:01:58If they go down, they're going to take me down with them.
01:02:08Shit.
01:02:09We have to do something.
01:02:15They can't pull this shit again.
01:02:17Don't worry, baby.
01:02:19I know just what to do.
01:02:20I know just what to do.
01:02:20You're afraid, aren't you?
01:02:36Fuck off.
01:02:37You are.
01:02:39You're always afraid.
01:02:40Not just now.
01:02:41That's why you have to crawl and scrape and bite for power every chance you get.
01:02:48Deep down inside, you're more afraid than anyone else.
01:02:54And now you've shacked up with this psycho.
01:02:56Just because you don't have to do this, you can still...
01:02:58I said shut up!
01:03:00Gagher.
01:03:03What am I supposed to do?
01:03:04What am I supposed to do?
01:03:05Ava's a good person, Declan.
01:03:26She doesn't deserve it.
01:03:28She saved me, man.
01:03:29She showed me that I'm not alone.
01:03:32That's what I thought, too.
01:03:34About Lauren.
01:03:35Thought I finally found someone who had my back.
01:03:41I really loved her.
01:03:51You know, these are the pills your friend, Lily, took.
01:03:56The same pills that caused the OD you saved her from.
01:04:02Too bad she isn't here to return the favor.
01:04:04Wait, what?
01:04:09What are you doing?
01:04:11I'm doing what needs to be done.
01:04:14Drew, you can't do this again.
01:04:17Then why not?
01:04:18I got away with the last song.
01:04:23Please, Declan.
01:04:24Don't let them, don't let them hurt Ava.
01:04:25Don't let them hurt Ava like they hurt Lauren.
01:04:28Do you have a better idea?
01:04:40Do you have a better idea?
01:04:40I'm going to have a lot of fun making sure you choke this down.
01:04:54Baby!
01:04:57Baby!
01:04:57Come here, Rexca!
01:04:58Shoot her!
01:05:00Do you have a better idea?
01:05:04Did you kill them?
01:05:06They're just electrocuted.
01:05:07Unconscious.
01:05:08Well, I have to kill you.
01:05:10Jessica, please.
01:05:11Please, please, don't do this.
01:05:12You don't have to do this.
01:05:13Jessica, please.
01:05:13Don't let them hurt you.
01:05:14Don't let them hurt you.
01:05:15Don't let them hurt you.
01:05:16Hunter?
01:05:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:05:38Ava, no, don't do this to me.
01:05:40Come on, Ava, don't do it.
01:05:42Don't do this to me, bro.
01:05:46Hunter, what are you doing?
01:05:55Yeah, 911, I need help.
01:05:57Cops?
01:05:58Hunter, you can't do that.
01:05:59I don't fucking care.
01:06:01I'm at 5246 Pine Lane.
01:06:03You gotta hurry.
01:06:09Come on, come on, come on, come on.
01:06:11Go, get out of here.
01:06:13Come with me, man.
01:06:14If they find you, they'll arrest you.
01:06:16You'll go to jail.
01:06:18Yeah, would you have left Lauren?
01:06:27Run.
01:06:29Run!
01:06:38Don't do this to me.
01:06:39Come on, don't do this.
01:06:40There she is.
01:06:59You flew in for my graduation?
01:07:00Great speech.
01:07:07Wasn't a dry eye in the house.
01:07:09They're all just impressed because I got shot.
01:07:12Can I see the scar?
01:07:16Went straight through.
01:07:18Didn't even hit a nerve.
01:07:20Doctor said it was a miracle.
01:07:21You're such a badass.
01:07:22You're such a badass and a total genius.
01:07:31So, how about we talk about the elephant in the room?
01:07:35Why haven't you seen Hunter?
01:07:36I heard he just got out of prison.
01:07:41He knows you gave the science fair prize money to his family, right?
01:07:45I'm assuming someone told him.
01:07:48Are you mad at him?
01:07:50No.
01:07:51He gave up everything for me.
01:07:53Of course I'm not mad at him.
01:07:56He saved my life.
01:07:58More than that, he probably saved a bunch of lives.
01:08:01You know, his testimony sent Drew and Rex away for life.
01:08:05And Jessica got ten years.
01:08:06And his cooperation got him a shorter sentence.
01:08:08So, you pay him back by completely ghosting him?
01:08:14I didn't know what to say.
01:08:17It's been six months and you always know what to say.
01:08:19How have you not figured out what to say?
01:08:21I don't know, because thank you for saving my life.
01:08:24I'm sorry everyone's yours.
01:08:26Doesn't exactly have a romantic ring to it.
01:08:30So, you do still like him.
01:08:36Hunter's got a lot going on.
01:08:38He hasn't seen his family in six months.
01:08:41I'm sure I'm the last person he's thinking of right now.
01:08:43I'm pretty sure that's not true.
01:08:50I should go.
01:08:51I can't even be alone for five minutes without my parents sending out a search party.
01:08:56So, last day of school tomorrow.
01:08:58We still on for our annual tradition of rom-coms and cookie dough.
01:09:02Chocolate chips, Heath Ledger, and no bras.
01:09:05Who needs drugs when you've got action like that?
01:09:09Kidding.
01:09:12I love you, you know.
01:09:14I love you too, Lilz.
01:09:15I've got good news and even better news.
01:09:26Chloe?
01:09:49Chloe?
01:09:50Lily?
01:09:56Hey.
01:09:59What are you doing here, Hutch?
01:10:02I'm gonna kill Lily.
01:10:04Please don't. She was actually a really good wing woman, apart from her wanting me to sing you a Frankie Valli song.
01:10:11I thought it was a bit too much, and you know, I can't sing for shit.
01:10:20You look good.
01:10:22So do you.
01:10:27I'm so sorry. I know I don't deserve your forgiveness.
01:10:30Stop. Look at me.
01:10:33You saved me, honey.
01:10:35You saved me.
01:10:37No, we saved each other.
01:10:40If it wasn't for our fake relationship, I never would have gotten out of that life.
01:10:45You're welcome.
01:10:47So, what now? Are you gonna re-enroll next fall somewhere, or?
01:10:54I actually managed to get my GED while I'm in prison.
01:10:57What?
01:10:58Yeah.
01:10:59That's incredible, Hunter.
01:11:00Mm-hmm. Well, the smartest girl I know taught me how to study, so it wasn't too hard.
01:11:04Mm-hmm.
01:11:06I think I'm just gonna do some independent study next year, reapply to colleges at the end of that.
01:11:11And I can do that from anywhere, so.
01:11:14You know, things are actually looking good for my life.
01:11:18But there's still this one thing I feel like I'm missing.
01:11:22Mm-hmm.
01:11:23If that's where you come in, you know, I could really use a good tutor.
01:11:30That could work.
01:11:34Really?
01:11:36Cuz...
01:11:38I could really use a boyfriend.
01:11:41It's come here already.
01:11:46No!
01:11:47Yeah, I just wanna be forever young.
01:11:51Yeah, I just wanna be forever young.
01:11:56I love the ground, no one can stop me now.
01:12:01Yeah, I just wanna be forever young.
01:12:04I love you.
01:12:05That's all right.
01:12:06Yeah, I love you.
01:12:07I love you.
01:12:09I love you.
01:12:11When you're a place, you have a place to be forever young.
01:12:19I love you.
01:12:21I love you.
01:12:23I love you.
01:12:24I love you.
01:12:26I love you.
01:12:28I love you.
01:12:29I love you.
