00:00:00Hey, Ava Darling.
00:00:15Declan, what are you doing?
00:00:17That's a beautiful name.
00:00:18Ava Darling.
00:00:21Makes sense, I guess.
00:00:24Beautiful name for a beautiful girl.
00:00:27Right. 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.
00:00:49Oh, 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.
00:01:14You guys really need to find new shit to laugh about?
00:01:17Hunter, what the fuck?
00:01:21You good?
00:01:22Enough, everyone.
00:01:27Let's get to class.
00:01:29Go learn something.
00:01:33Hunter.
00:01:34Just a man I wanted to see.
00:01:36Oh, practice ran late.
00:01:46I didn't have time to study.
00:01:48Life lasts longer than the duration of a soccer season.
00:01:52You need to start thinking about your future.
00:01:55And you deserve a future, Hunter.
00:01:57I know you're better than this.
00:02:00One more F and you're off the team.
00:02:02And finally, please remember there are Narcon injectors available at the front office.
00:02:10Stay safe and study hard, students.
00:02:12Don't you know it's not enough to be smart anymore?
00:02:15You're going to have to be willing to play dirty, too.
00:02:18Is that why you keep cheating your way to valedictorian?
00:02:20Just because you're the front runner now, doesn't mean you won't have a little accident before the school year's out.
00:02:29You know, it was so easy to get you alone with my cousin this morning.
00:02:35You know, he's not afraid to beat up a girl.
00:02:38You should keep that in mind.
00:02:39You should keep that in mind.
00:03:09Ava, can I talk to you?
00:03:15It's Hunter.
00:03:16I promise you're safe.
00:03:17Why do you carry around travel-sized lotion-infused tissues?
00:03:37So I can help damsels in distress like you?
00:03:46No, I'm kidding.
00:03:46My 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.
00:03:57Like, I think we'd be a good team and you could call it, I don't know, payback for helping you out earlier?
00:04:04Thanks, but no thanks.
00:04:06I can take care of myself.
00:04:09Really?
00:04:09You know, I heard what Jessica was saying to you out there.
00:04:15I could, um, I could offer you protection for a couple of those days you're always getting.
00:04:24And how would you protect me?
00:04:25I think Jessica and Declan would, you know, stop bothering you if they thought you were my girlfriend.
00:04:35But aren't you and, um, Jessica...
00:04:38Fuck you.
00:04:39No, not anymore.
00:04:40Right, but why not just friends?
00:04:46Because Jessica and Declan think guys and girls can't, you know, just be friends.
00:04:53So, you want to be my fake boyfriend for protection in exchange for me giving you all the answers to everything?
00:05:02Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
00:05:04I mean, I think it sounds like a good idea.
00:05:07Would you ever be, I don't know, interested in something like that?
00:05:10Oh, you're such a man whore.
00:05:15You know what, Hunter?
00:05:17Why don't you take your offer and shove it up your ass?
00:05:19Oh.
00:05:40You're right.
00:05:54There he is.
00:05:56My best salesman.
00:05:57I didn't come here to watch you grope your jailbait girlfriend.
00:06:10Fuck off, Hunter.
00:06:12Hey, Drew, you want me to show this kid his place?
00:06:14That fucking mouth of yours.
00:06:23I pay all your bills and you give me shit?
00:06:27You 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.
00:06:35Please, Mr. Carter, you don't understand.
00:06:38She's sick.
00:06:39I need the money.
00:06:41Little bitch.
00:06:42I'd kick your disrespectful ass if my business partners weren't so pleased with your numbers.
00:06:48Remember that.
00:06:48Speaking of, we're throwing a party here this weekend.
00:06:55So invite all your little high school friends.
00:06:57I want a big crowd.
00:06:59I got a new shipment of bills coming in.
00:07:01I need my best salesman to be there to push them.
00:07:05Am I clear?
00:07:06Mm-hmm.
00:07:09You told Hunter Black to do what?
00:07:25Ava, you need to go back to him, apologize, and accept the deal.
00:07:29Why would I do that?
00:07:30Because if Jessica can't mess with you outside of the classroom,
00:07:33that means she'll have to beat you for valedictorian the old-fashioned way.
00:07:36And we all know that'll never happen.
00:07:39You gotta stop with those.
00:07:45Lauren Cabot overdosed on those last year.
00:07:47Because she was partying, cutting it with other drugs.
00:07:50You don't see me doing that, do you?
00:07:53I still think there's a better way to focus.
00:07:55And I still think you should take Hunter up on his offer.
00:07:59If you hurry, you could catch him after soccer practice.
00:08:02You know what?
00:08:03It's a great idea.
00:08:06Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
00:08:09It's a great idea.
00:08:11It's a great idea.
00:08:12But hopefully I feel like he's even better off of someone like that.
00:08:27If you haven't let violence, then I don't know.
00:08:29I'm just kidding.
00:08:29I'm kidding.
00:08:31Hey, you changed your mind yet?
00:08:56No, I have not.
00:08:58Oh.
00:09:01What is that?
00:09:02Is that Grease?
00:09:03It is Grease.
00:09:04From the robotics lab.
00:09:05It's where I just was.
00:09:07Oh.
00:09:08Okay.
00:09:09Ava, I get it.
00:09:10Alright, academics, that's your thing.
00:09:11Just like soccer is mine.
00:09:13And you know, normally I wouldn't ask you to help me cheat on anything.
00:09:16But this is temporary.
00:09:17I just gotta...
00:09:18I gotta get through soccer season into spring semester with my scholarship intact so I can graduate.
00:09:23Spring semester?
00:09:25Too late for Jessica to catch up with me.
00:09:27Hmm.
00:09:30For valedictorian.
00:09:32Yeah, I know.
00:09:38If we're gonna be in a fake relationship, we have to discuss parameters.
00:09:41Set up some ground rules.
00:09:42Deal.
00:09:43Shall we seal it with a kiss?
00:09:46Rule number one.
00:09:47Nothing physical.
00:09:49Well, come on.
00:09:50I mean it, Hunter.
00:09:51Our clothes are staying on.
00:09:54I can think of plenty of things we can do with our clothes to on.
00:09:56I mean we have to at least kiss if we're gonna look like a real couple.
00:10:01Maybe even a few trips to the nurse's office.
00:10:06Fine.
00:10:07Which leads me to rule number two.
00:10:09Hmm.
00:10:10No other hookups.
00:10:11If we're a couple, we're into each other and only each other.
00:10:14Yeah.
00:10:15Alright.
00:10:16Then rule number three, no catching feelings.
00:10:19I don't want you getting all lovey-dovey on me.
00:10:21No problem.
00:10:22No.
00:10:24And I think, you know, if you're gonna be my girlfriend, you gotta, you gotta look the part.
00:10:29What?
00:10:30You gonna give me a makeover or something?
00:10:34Something like that.
00:10:39Hey, Jessica.
00:10:40I heard your ex is now dating that pick-me-prude Ava.
00:10:44Like anyone would ever date Ava.
00:10:48Have you seen her?
00:10:50She dresses like a troll.
00:10:52With a personality to match.
00:10:53Yeah.
00:10:54Total boner killer.
00:10:56Exactly.
00:10:57Damn.
00:10:58Who's that?
00:11:10Is that...
00:11:11Ava?
00:11:27What?
00:11:28Are you doing charity work now?
00:11:42Nice jacket.
00:11:43It's his mom's.
00:11:44Hmm.
00:11:45Shame to see such a great outfit go absolutely wasted.
00:11:47Even with the new clothes, you're still so painfully...
00:11:48Mid.
00:11:49Don't listen to him.
00:11:50You look gorgeous.
00:11:51Don't listen to him.
00:11:52Don't listen to him.
00:11:53Don't listen to him.
00:11:54You look gorgeous.
00:11:55You look gorgeous.
00:11:56You look gorgeous.
00:11:58You look gorgeous.
00:11:59Huh.
00:12:00Huh.
00:12:01You look gorgeous.
00:12:02Huh.
00:12:03At least when I win valedictorian.
00:12:04I'm valedictorian.
00:12:05You're really good.
00:12:07With the new clothes and I don't get a deal.
00:12:08You're so good.
00:12:09You look...
00:12:10I am.
00:12:11There you go.
00:12:12Don't listen to him.
00:12:15You look gorgeous.
00:12:31At least when I win valedictorian,
00:12:34you'll be used to my sloppy seconds.
00:12:42Adorable.
00:12:45Now, if you will please excuse us.
00:12:49Hunter and I have some very important business to attend to.
00:12:53Drew needs us.
00:12:55Right, yeah.
00:12:56Business? Who's Drew?
00:13:00Um, just a soccer thing.
00:13:03I'll see you later for tutoring, though, yeah?
00:13:12You're fucking lying to me?
00:13:16Fucking lying to me?
00:13:19Cody, that's enough, man.
00:13:21Yo, we don't like doing this shit to you, man.
00:13:22We don't like it, okay?
00:13:23Just pay us the money.
00:13:25Yeah? You know who you work for?
00:13:27No, Drew Carter.
00:13:28You want to piss him off?
00:13:29I promise you.
00:13:30I heard he used a knife on the last kid.
00:13:31You hear that, Hunter?
00:13:32I did hear that.
00:13:33You want to try your luck with Drew?
00:13:34No, you don't.
00:13:35You got one week.
00:13:36You got one week, okay?
00:13:39That means get the fuck out!
00:13:42What's up, sweetly?
00:13:57You guys on the road yet?
00:14:00You think you left it on my bed?
00:14:03Okay, just, um, just hang tight.
00:14:06I'll be there soon.
00:14:07Okay, yeah.
00:14:12Lily, you need to eat something.
00:14:24The pills always kill my appetite.
00:14:27Hey, come eat lunch with us?
00:14:41Need I remind you, you're supposed to be protecting me from those people, not throwing me into the lion's den.
00:14:46Yeah, well, we have to keep up the ruse somehow.
00:14:48Well, speaking of, fuck her up, buttercup.
00:15:00Babe!
00:15:02Not here.
00:15:03Okay, let's go to the nurse's office.
00:15:05The nurse's office.
00:15:14Okay, I'll be there.
00:15:18Okay, let's take it.
00:15:21Okay, let's go to the nurse's office.
00:15:25Okay, let's go to the nurse, let's go to the nurse.
00:15:31when do you think this place will be done with renovations hopefully never
00:15:40so how long do we have to stay in here in order to sell it about an hour i'd say
00:15:55is that how long you stay with girls you actually like i don't bring girls in here
00:16:00but this is like the prime time like hookup spot on campus yeah but like you i actually have standards
00:16:08can i ask you a question are you a virgin you don't have to answer that i'm just you know i'm
00:16:19curious because you're a pretty girl and i figure you could get a boyfriend like a real boyfriend
00:16:26if you wanted one i'll get lucky at college next year i'll find another engineering student and
00:16:34he'll help me change the world for the better i'll also dabble in some regency romance novels and
00:16:40look like a young timothy chalamet so the exact opposite of me
00:16:44what about you then plenty of hookups no real girlfriends you really a man whore
00:16:55you want to find out
00:16:59what if i do
00:17:11do you really think that line would work
00:17:25huh
00:17:26it did on jessica
00:17:29let me guess your situation shift ended so bad that you swore off real dating forever
00:17:37no no i mean it was bad like definitely bad but i think it's uh i think it's more to do with
00:17:45with uh with money i'm at the school on scholarship and if i lose a scholarship i lose the opportunity
00:17:53to play in front of college scouts and if i lose that opportunity i can't go to college because
00:17:57obviously you know i don't have a college fund even though i work a bunch of jobs but it's like at
00:18:03the end of the month when the bills come in all my money's just gone so i guess my point is that i
00:18:10can't afford a girlfriend
00:18:11for the record
00:18:19the right girl won't care about money
00:18:22she'll just want someone who cares
00:18:24and
00:18:26you know not to
00:18:27give you a bigger ego than you already have
00:18:31but
00:18:32i think you'd actually make a pretty
00:18:34okay boyfriend
00:18:35come on dish already tell me what happened in the nurse's office
00:18:51i mean
00:18:53nothing really
00:18:56and i'd believe that if you didn't have these cute little stars floating around in your eyes
00:19:01we just talked really but
00:19:05it was nice i guess
00:19:07you know he's shockingly an okay guy
00:19:10well
00:19:11i always knew that
00:19:13what are you talking about
00:19:15sophomore year my car got a flat tire in the student parking lot
00:19:19everyone who was there started laughing at me because i couldn't change it
00:19:22except for hunter

00:19:39i asked my teachers for some extensions
00:19:50they were all actually pretty cool about it
00:19:54you know high school gets a lot easier once you realize the teachers actually want you to succeed
00:19:58yeah well they gave me all these assignments to redo for a better grade
00:20:02how long do you think it'll take you
00:20:05why

00:27:18A trick of the trade?
00:27:21Oh, soccer's too important to be hung over all the time.
00:27:24Doesn't it get annoying?
00:27:26Pretending all the time?
00:27:28Pretending to drink?
00:27:29Pretending you're not as smart as you really are?
00:27:32Pretending you're not a total soft bee?
00:27:34Don't want my cover?
00:27:35I used to hate being unpopular.
00:27:40It gets lonely sometimes.
00:27:44But at least I can never pretend to be anything but me.
00:27:49Hunter, there you are.
00:27:52Drew wants a word with you.
00:27:54Fuck.
00:27:54Right now?
00:27:56Please, don't leave me.
00:27:59Just hang here.
00:28:00I'll be back in a minute.
00:28:01Okay?
00:28:02I don't like to be kept waiting.
00:28:13I didn't know I was on the clock tonight.
00:28:15Wash the attitude, kid.
00:28:17You work when I tell you to work.
00:28:20Understood?
00:28:22Yeah.
00:28:22Now, stay here.
00:28:26My boy is coming with some dope.
00:28:28Then we're heading right back out there to push.
00:28:29I still got pills.
00:28:30I can get them all out tonight.
00:28:31No.
00:28:32Fresh shipment just came in.
00:28:34New suppliers, new shit.
00:28:37Saw it that you brought a girl, by the way.
00:28:40Pretty little thing.
00:28:42She's not going to be a problem now, is she?
00:28:46No, she doesn't matter, no.
00:28:53Good.
00:29:15What, did the cops recruit you or something?
00:29:17Are you here to narc on us, get us all arrested?
00:29:20I'm here with Hunter.
00:29:22So that's how you've been keeping up with me.
00:29:35I'd say eat a dick.
00:29:37But we both know no guy would ever touch you.
00:29:42Hunter can dress you up all you want.
00:29:46But everyone at this party knows you'll always be below us.
00:29:50Hunter accepts me just fine.
00:29:52And he wants to touch me.
00:29:56Please.
00:29:58You barely even know him.
00:30:02Where is he?
00:30:03Right now?
00:30:06That's what I thought.
00:30:09He's already gotten bored of you.
00:30:11Gone back to his own kind.
00:30:13Where do you think you are going?
00:30:14Where do you think you are going?
00:30:21What the hell are you doing?
00:30:24Reminding you of your place.
00:30:25Go ahead.
00:30:34Do you mind?
00:30:35I can't believe you're bleeding all over me.
00:30:38I don't want to catch whatever diseases you have.
00:30:41What the hell is wrong with you?
00:30:47Just proving a point.
00:30:50You're too delicate.
00:30:52Too weak to be with someone like Hunter.
00:30:54Ava darling, huh?
00:31:20Those high school girls, man.
00:31:25They'll get your ass in a lot of trouble.
00:31:28Which reminds me.
00:31:30Do you remember that girl that Declan started to bring around the warehouse last year?
00:31:35Lauren Cobbett?
00:31:36Yeah, Lauren.
00:31:39Sweet girl.
00:31:41Too bad she didn't know how to keep her mouth shut.
00:31:44Heard her asking way too many questions.
00:31:47And then that overdose?
00:31:52What did you do?
00:31:54All I did was offer her a couple pills.
00:31:58How was I supposed to know that she was going to be mixing them?
00:32:01Word of advice.
00:32:03Keep your shit separate.
00:32:06I would just hate to see your new girlfriend get in way over her head.
00:32:27Holy shit, that's going to take forever to move.
00:32:29You got two weeks.
00:32:31That's impossible.
00:32:32It better not be.
00:32:33I don't know.
00:32:36Good.
00:32:40Good.
00:32:42Now you get this done before the next shipment comes in.
00:32:45And there's a bonus way.
00:32:47The powers that be are interested in expansion.
00:32:50Big time.
00:32:52And that means taking care of my guys.
00:32:55Hey!
00:32:56So you left me to hang out with your asshole friends?
00:32:58We're supposed to be dating, remember?
00:33:00I know, I know, I just...
00:33:03Because I'm keeping up my end of the deal.
00:33:05Doing all your work.
00:33:06I had to, okay?
00:33:07You just don't understand.
00:33:08Meanwhile, I just got eaten alive in there.
00:33:10I mean, look at what your psycho ex just did.
00:33:12Fuck.
00:33:13I'm sorry, Ava.
00:33:14I wish I could have been in there.
00:33:15I really do.
00:33:16Can we just go, please?
00:33:18Somewhere else?
00:33:18Anywhere else?
00:33:19Is there a problem over here?
00:33:23Who the hell are you?
00:33:25None of your fucking business, sweetheart.
00:33:29I thought you said she didn't matter.
00:33:33Oh, I know.
00:33:35I hurt you.
00:33:39Go inside and wait for me.
00:33:41You do what I say.
00:33:41Attaboy.
00:33:54We're done.
00:33:55It's over.
00:33:55What?
00:33:55No, Ava, that was...
00:33:56What the hell am I getting out of the deal?
00:33:58You won't even protect me from your own friends.
00:34:00I'm trying, okay?
00:34:01You just don't know everything.
00:34:03I know what I see.
00:34:04And it's bullshit.
00:34:07Just like one of your assignments.
00:34:09Something you start but can't finish.

00:40:37Help!
00:40:39Help, please!
00:40:55I went to a cat.
00:41:09I did it!
00:41:11I got her!
00:41:13Oh, my gosh.
00:41:19I did it.
00:41:20I got her.
00:41:21You got her.
00:41:22I got her.
00:41:38Mm-hmm.
00:41:39Are you going to leave?
00:41:40Yeah.
00:41:40One sec.
00:41:42I can take this.
00:41:44What you need?
00:41:45I got you.
00:41:56Whoa, what the hell?
00:41:58Did you know all your friends are dealing drugs?
00:42:00What?
00:42:01I called one of their little numbers and Declan picked up.
00:42:05Lily overdosed.
00:42:07The paramedic said that she had traces of fentanyl in her system.
00:42:10Fentanyl?
00:42:11Yeah.
00:42:11That's, um, that's, that's terrible.
00:42:15If I'd, is she okay?
00:42:17She will be.
00:42:19I just talked to her parents, but God, if I would have given her the Narcan any later.
00:42:26You know, she has to go to, like, some sober high school or something, and I'll have no one.
00:42:31I'm so sorry, but I, I, I had no idea.
00:42:41There's a sober lining, at least.
00:42:42I made an anonymous call to the principal.
00:42:46They're doing a drug search of Declan's locker first thing tomorrow morning.
00:42:49It's clean.
00:43:05All right, everyone.
00:43:06Boss and Lyle.
00:43:07Let's move it along.
00:43:08Back to class.
00:43:08Do you know how much my parents donated to this school when I got in?
00:43:16You'll be getting a call from them very soon.
00:43:24When I find out who did this, and I will find out,
00:43:28you are going to pay.
00:43:45Oh, damn it.
00:43:48Gotta win it for the both of us now.
00:43:54Mom.
00:43:54When did you get out of the hospital?
00:44:00About an hour ago.
00:44:0172-hour hold let up.
00:44:03I just came to school to pick up my stuff.
00:44:07Look.
00:44:09I know I ruined my life, but I...
00:44:11That's not true.
00:44:13It's always possible to start over.
00:44:16And you still have me?
00:44:18Yeah.
00:44:19Thanks for saving my life, by the way.
00:44:21Just don't make me do it again.
00:44:24I should go.
00:44:26My mom and dad are waiting.
00:44:28See you soon.
00:44:44That was soon.
00:44:45You know what they say about snitches, right?
00:44:51I warned you, didn't I?
00:45:14I told you to keep your shit separate.
00:45:16If you didn't orchestrate the drug search, come on, bro.
00:45:18Huh, right.
00:45:21Now, if you didn't bring in that shady shipment,
00:45:23none of this shit would have happened.
00:45:25Fentanyl?
00:45:26I never agreed to sell that shit, bro.
00:45:28Keep your fucking voice down.
00:45:30You don't like it, you can leave.
00:45:33Yeah, I'll leave.
00:45:34I want out.
00:45:38That's fine.
00:45:40You can go.
00:45:41I'm not tripping.
00:45:41Just as soon as you pay me back for what you haven't sold.
00:45:47What?
00:45:49That money's got to come from somewhere, Hunter.
00:45:52You or your customers.
00:45:55I'll let you decide which.
00:45:57And don't worry.
00:45:58I'm not going to touch Ava.
00:46:00I'm letting the girls figure it out themselves.
00:46:02I don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:21And I'm getting really tired of you insulting my intelligence.
00:46:25Fine.
00:46:36I did it.
00:46:37I called in the drug search.
00:46:39Happy?
00:46:41Oh, you're not going anywhere.
00:46:44You're going to pay for what you just tried to do to my family.
00:46:48And hey.
00:46:51Maybe this will take you out of the valedictorian race, too.
00:46:53Ava.
00:47:05What happened?
00:47:05Are you okay?
00:47:06I'm fine.
00:47:06I'm fine, bitch.
00:47:07I'm going to kill you, Ava, darling.
00:47:11Come on.
00:47:12We can hang here without anyone asking questions.
00:47:24My mom and my sister are in Arizona again.
00:47:29It's better than my place.
00:47:31My parents would ask a million questions.
00:47:34I thought they trusted you.
00:47:36They do.
00:47:39But I'm never home this early from the lab.
00:47:42They'd know something was wrong.
00:47:43Why are your mom and sister in Arizona?
00:47:55Uh, just, uh, like a trip they go on every few weeks.
00:48:01It's because she's sick, right?
00:48:03Your sister, Leah.
00:48:04How'd you, how'd you know that?
00:48:12I found this in your mom's jacket.
00:48:21It's from her first hospital visit.
00:48:24I don't know why my mom keeps this stuff.
00:48:26I get it.
00:48:32Sometimes painful things are important to hold on to.
00:48:39She has leukemia.
00:48:44She's had it since she was a kid.
00:48:46And, you know, it went away, but a couple years ago it came back.
00:48:51And I guess since then everything's kind of just fallen apart.
00:48:57Like, uh, my mom can only work a part-time job
00:49:01because she's got to take Leah in for all of her treatment,
00:49:04so we're stuck in the Section A department.
00:49:07And, you know, I, I offered to drop out of school and work full-time.
00:49:14But my mom refuses.
00:49:15She says Leah's going to grow up on her and,
00:49:19you know, she's going to need a role model.
00:49:21You know, some role model I am, you know.
00:49:29You're a good guy, Hunter, but your friends,
00:49:31your friends are psycho.
00:49:33Why do you even hang out with them?
00:49:37Loyalty.
00:49:38Nostalgia, I guess.
00:49:39I don't know.
00:49:40I mean, we were close when we were kids.
00:49:43But, you know, I guess I feel like you a lot of the time.
00:49:47You know how you said if you didn't have Lily,
00:49:49you'd have no one?
00:49:52Yeah, I, I don't know.
00:49:54I feel like I'm alone.
00:49:59Most of the time, honestly.
00:50:00Well, I guess it's good we have each other, then.
00:50:14Wait, I'm, I know you said nothing physical.
00:50:40What, when?
00:50:42That was like your first rule, no?
00:50:43Our deal's off, anyway.
00:50:47Oh, yeah, I forgot.
00:50:49Besides, I think we might have just broken your rule, too.
00:50:55Unless you're not feeling the same things I'm feeling.
00:50:59Um, right.
00:51:07Okay, my mistake.
00:51:09Emotions are running high today.
00:51:11You're being nice, and I shouldn't have read into that.
00:51:15Ava.
00:51:15Make signals much?
00:51:28I'm sorry, I'm just, I'm just really bad at talking about this stuff.
00:51:32But I promise you there's feelings.
00:51:35You make me feel brave enough to feel them.
00:51:36You make me feel brave, too.
00:51:40If you don't want to talk, that's okay.
00:52:00Why don't you show me?
00:52:06I thought you said you wanted to wait.
00:52:09Hunter, I trust you.
00:52:13Who knows when that will ever happen again.
00:52:15And I always want to be someone you can trust.
00:52:24Always.
00:52:24Always.
00:52:24Always.
00:52:45We'll go slow, right?
00:52:49Mm-hmm.
00:52:50Slow as you want.
00:52:52And we can stop anytime.
00:52:55Okay.
00:52:57I'm ready.
00:53:07This feels good.
00:53:09I mean, it, like, tickles, but in a good way, you know?
00:53:12Should I, should I take off my clothes?
00:53:17You know, because...
00:53:18Ava.
00:53:19There you go.
00:53:19I mean, it, like, tickles, but in a good way, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you
00:53:49Can I say something?
00:54:15Has anyone ever stopped you from saying something?
00:54:17Hey, you like that about me?
00:54:20No, I do.
00:54:21What do you want to say?
00:54:24I'm really starving.
00:54:32Okay, why don't we go on a real date then?
00:54:37See a show and go to a dinner.
00:54:41A show?
00:54:42Okay, like a movie at the discount theater.
00:54:44Are you getting all lovey-dovey on me, Hunter Black?
00:54:49Are you saying yes?
00:54:52I'm saying of course.
00:54:53Okay, I admit, when you said dinner, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind.
00:55:15Not that I mind an affordable option.
00:55:20It's just, this is where you work and I don't want your mind to be on work all night.
00:55:25Trust me, my mind's gonna be on something else.
00:55:28I just have to drop something off.
00:55:33Something I should have dropped off a long time ago.
00:55:36All right.
00:55:38Are you okay?
00:55:39You seem nervous.
00:55:40No, I've just, I've never been on a real date before.
00:55:44Can I just come with you?
00:55:46Do you still trust me?
00:55:59I still trust you.
00:56:00Okay.
00:56:16I still trust you.
00:56:46Hey, who's there?
00:57:03Jesus, dude.
00:57:07You scared the shit out of me.
00:57:08What are you doing here?
00:57:08What are you doing here?
00:57:10Hunter?
00:57:28Where are you?
00:57:30Drew was worried you'd do something stupid
00:57:44Told me to watch the place
00:57:46I guess he was right
00:57:50Ava
00:58:00Please, let me explain in the car
00:58:04I tried giving you the benefit of the doubt
00:58:07But of course you were involved with this the whole time
00:58:09Ava, we can't be here right now
00:58:10Did you sell them to her?
00:58:12The drugs slowly overdosed on?
00:58:13No, I didn't
00:58:14I promise you I didn't
00:58:16As soon as I found out the pills had fentanyl in them, I stopped
00:58:18That's why I'm here
00:58:19I'm giving everything back
00:58:20Ava, I can't do this shit anymore
00:58:22I don't want to do this shit anymore
00:58:24You showed me that I can be better
00:58:26Ava
00:58:27I want to trust you
00:58:31You still lied to me
00:58:34Okay, I'm not asking you to trust me right now
00:58:37I'm asking you to give me a chance to prove that you can
00:58:40Because
00:58:40I love you, Ava
00:58:43Don't
00:58:46Don't say that if you don't mean it
00:58:49I mean it
00:58:57I love you too
00:59:05As long as I have you, I don't care what happens to me next
00:59:14You know what we have to do, right?
00:59:19We have to go to cops now
00:59:20Look who we have here
00:59:26Two for the price of one
00:59:28I told you I wanted out
00:59:37You really thought it was going to be that easy?
00:59:43I, I, I
00:59:44Where do you think you're going?
00:59:46Hey, let her go
00:59:50Trust me, that next shot won't be in the air
01:00:11To the warehouse
01:00:17Now
01:00:18Hold, Hunter
01:00:34The hell is wrong with you guys?
01:00:37This is crazy
01:00:38No
01:00:38This is survival
01:00:39Look who it is
01:00:43Hit her, baby
01:00:52Ava
01:00:55That's my girl
01:00:57Tie her up
01:01:00Hunter
01:01:04Fucking let her go
01:01:06Inside
01:01:06Now
01:01:07Come on, man
01:01:18Don't do this
01:01:19Declan
01:01:23You killed Lauren
01:01:25Her OD wasn't an accident, man
01:01:27He's a monster
01:01:28I know
01:01:30You know, what are you
01:01:33Aren't you fucking angry?
01:01:35Of course I'm fucking angry
01:01:36What am I supposed to do about it, huh?
01:01:38If they go down
01:01:39They're going to take me down with them
01:01:41Shit
01:01:48We have to do something
01:01:55They can't pull this shit again
01:01:57Don't worry, baby
01:01:58I know just what to do
01:02:00You're afraid, aren't you?
01:02:15Fuck off
01:02:17You are
01:02:18You're always afraid
01:02:20Not just now
01:02:21That's why you have to crawl
01:02:25And scrape
01:02:25And bite for power
01:02:27Every chance you get
01:02:28Deep down inside
01:02:29You're more afraid
01:02:31Than anyone else
01:02:32And now you've shacked up
01:02:35With this psycho
01:02:36Just because you don't have to do this
01:02:38You can still
01:02:38I said shut up
01:02:40Gagger
01:02:42Ava's a good person, Declan
01:03:06She doesn't deserve it
01:03:07She saved me, man
01:03:09She showed me that I'm not alone
01:03:11That's what I thought, too
01:03:13About Lauren
01:03:15Thought I finally found someone
01:03:18Who had my back
01:03:20I really loved her
01:03:23You know
01:03:32These are the pills your friend, Lily, took
01:03:35The same pills that caused the OD
01:03:38You saved her, friend
01:03:39Too bad she isn't here
01:03:43To return the favor
01:03:44Wait, what?
01:03:49What are you doing?
01:03:50I'm doing what needs to be done
01:03:52Drew, you can't do this again
01:03:56And why not?
01:03:58I got away with the last song
01:03:59Please, Declan
01:04:03Don't let them hurt Ava
01:04:05Don't let them hurt Ava
01:04:07Like they hurt Lauren
01:04:07Do you have a better idea?
01:04:20I'm gonna have a lot of fun
01:04:32Making sure you choke this down
01:04:33Baby!
01:04:36Oh, Rexha, shoot her
01:04:38Did you kill them?
01:04:45They're just electrocuted
01:04:46Unconscious
01:04:47Well, I have to kill you
01:04:49Jessica, please
01:04:49Please, please
01:04:50Don't do this
01:04:51You don't have to do this
01:04:52Jessica, please
01:04:52Hunter
01:05:07No, no, no, no
01:05:12Ava, no, don't do this to me
01:05:18Hunter, what are you doing?
01:05:34911, I need help
01:05:35Cops?
01:05:36Hunter, you can't do that
01:05:37I don't fucking care
01:05:38I'm at 5246 Pine Lane
01:05:41You gotta hurry
01:05:42Come on, come on, come on
01:05:49Go, get out of here
01:05:51Come with me, man
01:05:52If they find you, they'll arrest you
01:05:54You'll go to jail
01:05:55Yeah, would you have left Lauren?
01:06:06Run
01:06:06Run
01:06:08Don't do this to me
01:06:17Come on, don't do this
01:06:19There she is
01:06:36You flew in for my graduation?
01:06:43Great speech
01:06:45Wasn't a dry eye in the house
01:06:46They're all just impressed
01:06:48Because I got shot
01:06:49Can I see the scar?
01:06:54Went straight through
01:06:55Didn't even hit a nerve
01:06:57Doctor said it was a miracle
01:06:59You're such a badass
01:07:02And a total genius
01:07:05So
01:07:10How about we talk about
01:07:12The elephant in the room?
01:07:13Why haven't you seen Hunter?
01:07:15I heard he just got out of prison
01:07:17He knows you gave the science fair prize money
01:07:21To his family, right?
01:07:23I'm assuming someone told him
01:07:25Are you mad at him?
01:07:28No
01:07:28He gave up everything for me
01:07:31Of course I'm not mad at him
01:07:33He saved my life
01:07:35More than that
01:07:37He probably saved a bunch of lives
01:07:38You know, his testimony
01:07:40Sent Drew and Rex away for life
01:07:42And Jessica got ten years
01:07:43And his cooperation
01:07:45Got him a shorter sentence
01:07:46So you pay him back
01:07:49By completely ghosting him?
01:07:50I didn't know what to say
01:07:54It's been six months
01:07:55And you always know what to say
01:07:57How have you not figured out what to say?
01:07:59I don't know
01:07:59Because
01:08:00Thank you for saving my life
01:08:02I'm sorry everyone's yours
01:08:03Doesn't exactly have a romantic ring to it
01:08:06So you do still like him
01:08:10Hunter's got a lot going on
01:08:15He hasn't seen his family in six months
01:08:17I'm sure I'm the last person he's thinking of right now
01:08:21I'm pretty sure that's not true
01:08:23I should go
01:08:28I can't even be alone for five minutes
01:08:30Without my parents sending out a search party
01:08:32So
01:08:33Last day of school tomorrow
01:08:35We still on for our annual tradition of rom-coms and cookie dough
01:08:39Chocolate chips, Heath Ledger, and no bras
01:08:42Who needs drugs when you've got action like that?
01:08:46Kidding
01:08:46I love you, you know
01:08:50I love you too, Lowe's
01:08:52I've got good news
01:09:02And even better news
01:09:04Chloe?
01:09:28Chloe?
01:09:28Chloe?
01:09:34Hey
01:09:34What are you doing here, Hutch?
01:09:40I'm gonna kill Lily
01:09:41Please don't
01:09:42She was actually a really good wing woman
01:09:44Apart from
01:09:45Her wanting me to sing you a Frankie Valli song
01:09:48I thought it was a bit too much
01:09:50And
01:09:51You know
01:09:51I can't sing for shit
01:09:53You look good
01:09:58So do you
01:10:01I'm so sorry
01:10:06Like I know I don't deserve your forgiveness
01:10:07Look at me
01:10:09You saved me, Hunter
01:10:12You saved me
01:10:14No, we saved each other
01:10:16If it wasn't for our fake relationship
01:10:19I never would have gotten out of that life
01:10:20You're welcome
01:10:23So
01:10:27What now?
01:10:28Are you gonna re-enroll next fall somewhere?
01:10:30Where?
01:10:31I actually managed to get my GED
01:10:32While I'm in prison
01:10:33What?
01:10:34Yeah
01:10:35That's incredible, Hunter
01:10:37Well, the smartest girl I know
01:10:38Taught me how to study
01:10:39So it wasn't
01:10:40Too hard
01:10:40I think I'm just gonna
01:10:44Do some independent study next year
01:10:46Re-apply to colleges
01:10:47At the end of that
01:10:47And I can do that from anywhere
01:10:49So
01:10:49You know, things are actually looking good
01:10:52For my life
01:10:53But there's still this one thing
01:10:56I feel like I'm missing
01:10:57That's where you come in
01:11:02You know, I could really use a good tutor
01:11:04That could work
01:11:08Really?
01:11:13Cause
01:11:14I could really use a boyfriend
01:11:17It's come here already
01:11:23Yeah, I just wanna be forever young
01:11:27Yeah, I just wanna be forever young
01:11:32I'm off the ground
01:11:36No one can stop me now
01:11:38Yeah, I just wanna be forever young
