Previously on One Tree Hill.
You just became a Raven.
I'm having money problems, Dad. I need your help.
Right now, you're not an investment I'm interested in.
I am the majority owner of Tric, which means you can get the hell out.
You wanna take your seats? I'm your new English teacher, Mr. Chavez.
Nick?
We really can't do this, right?
I'm not leaving here till I get my damn pills.
It's either the pills or me.
Leave me alone!
Who are you?
I guess I'm your brother.
I know that was a lot of money, but I'm gonna pay you back.
Every cent.
Take your time.
How you doing?
He's with me.
-What are you doing here? -I came here to wish you luck.
-Somebody might see you. -No one here knows me.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with a teacher coming up
to check on his most promising student.
His most promising, sexy, irresistible student.
Brooke, where do you want these?
Over there is fine.
Thank you again for helping me out today.
-I'd be totally lost if it weren't for you. -Oh, it's cool.
Plus, it gets me out of geography.
It's a good thing you're Student Council President.
So, what do you need me to do next?
I need you to take these body jewels and paste them on Tia.
I want them on her neck, her thighs and her cleavage.
Mouth.
Breathe. And paste. Okay.
Hey, come on.
Hey, I'm getting that!
You shouldn't be straining yourself. You can't risk falling and stuff.
Relax. I'm pregnant, not elderly.
Anyway, I'm glad you're up.
Are you kidding me?
With the semi-finals tonight, I could barely sleep.
and it just made me think about what I want.
And what I want is to make you happy more than anything else in the world.
-So I want to go to Duke with you! -Oh, Haley.
You've been so supportive of me and my dream for music.
And I just... I wanna be supportive of you and your dream for playing at Duke.
So I want to do this for us, okay?
How did I get so lucky?
-It helps that you're hot. -Well, thank you.
We're gonna be so happy there.
Oh, yeah, I gotta go 'cause I'm meeting Skills and Lucas for an early workout.
Okay.
-What's all this stuff for, anyway? -Babysitting.
I thought the extra experience and money couldn't hurt.
Besides, I just really don't wanna be one of those moms that's, like,
completely overwhelmed and unprepared and always screaming at her kids
the way my mom used to be.
It was crazy. Anyway, the kids are coming by after school and...
You know what? You should stop by and say hi!
Nah, I'll pass. I don't really like kids.
-I'll like our kid. -Yeah, get out of here, you bum!
Big hands. Nice.
I'm so, so sorry. I'm...
I'm just not used to working this close to a girl, well, I mean, a woman,
who is, like, this hot.
Oh, my God! You're so cute I could eat you!
Please tell me you're a virgin.
Oh, my God, I'm totally eating you up!
I'm just gonna go kill myself now.
Oh, no!
It's so hard to find cute virgin boys.
All my friends would love you!
We're getting together tonight at the bar. You should totally join us.
Me? Join you and your friends?
Well, let's just say there's a pretty good chance
you won't wake up a virgin tomorrow.
So, is that a yes?
Peyton.
-How did you get in here? -Question is, how didn't I get in?
I popped open the back door,
the basement window and the window near the porch.
Given your history,
I thought you'd pay more attention to home security.
Okay, what are you doing here?
I thought you weren't interested in sticking around.
I'm not.
I just wanna make sure you're safe before I go back to my life.
Well, I slept great last night, alone. So mission accomplished.
That why you haven't been to school in over a week?
Lot of seniors skip class.
They skip school to do fun stuff, not hide in their room all day,
-afraid to step out onto their own porch. -That's not what I'm doing.
Well, if you're really over getting attacked by that psycho,
then there's no reason you shouldn't be at school.
Unless you'd rather hang out here, not feeling sorry for yourself.
Fine.
If it'll get you out of my house, I'll go to school.
-Fine, I'll drive you. -Fine.
Get moving. It's 0800!
I liked the other Derek better.
Scott, 20 in a row. The boy is on fire.
You ready for tonight?
It'd be a lot better if I had you watching my back the whole time.
I know, but I promised my mom not a second more than 15 minutes.
Man, it don't matter. It ain't like it's gonna
take us half the time to beat the chumps we playing tonight anyway.
Then we're going to State! So, you know what that mean.
We about to be VIP around here, dog, I'm telling you.
I'm about to have all the females getting my name tattooed all over they body.
I'll be right back.
Daunte. Hey, man, I don't have your money yet.
I tried to get a loan from my mom, and it turns out she's not doing so good.
-I know it's 10 grand. -Fifteen.
What?
You don't make your payments on time, juice keeps running on the money.
You said I could pay you back whenever.
Goes without saying, but there's a price for that.
This is the streets, Nathan.
We're not Bank of Tree Hill.
What am I supposed to do?
I can't come up with that kind of cash overnight.
Well, I could forget the amount.
Ravens are favored to win by 10 points tonight.
Lot of people are betting on it.
I think we're a lock to win by a lot more than that.
We're gonna blow those guys out.
Well, not if you want your debt to go away.
Look, Nathan, you can win the game, just don't win it by more than nine points.
-No way. -Nathan, I'm not asking you to lose.
Ravens will still win and go to the State Championship.
You'll be debt-free.
The way I see it, everybody wins.
Look, Nathan, I'm trying to help you out here.
Before you get yourself in trouble, take the offer or have my money tonight.
You know those guys?
Not personally, but I heard they into a lot of bad stuff though,
so anything they want with Nate can't be good.
You look amazing.
You look perfect.
This looks really, really good.
And you look lost.
-The plus-size show's next door. -Very funny.
Let me ask you, if I am so fat,
-why am I on the cover of Maxim? -What?
For the first time ever, Maxim put a hometown hottie
on the cover. And that hottie is me!
Oh, my God!
Okay, let's celebrate tonight after the game.
I can't. I have plans tonight.
Let me guess. You're going out with Mr. Chavez.
-I don't know what you're talking about. -Don't play dumb.
I saw you sneak out last night and meet him.
You claimed it was over.
And you claim you're not a slut, and that is such a lie.
I never claimed I wasn't a slut.
You know, you need to worry less about my love life
and more about your own with, like,
every guy in America because you are so hot in this spread!
I know!
Hey, hey, what's wrong?
Oh, come on. Let's get you home.
I don't know what's wrong with me. My back problems just won't let up.
Perhaps physical therapy could help.
Or those... Those pills you gave me the last time,
they fixed me right up.
Yeah, to be honest with you, Deb,
I am not comfortable prescribing you more medication.
Okay, this is awkward.
I guess we both know I don't actually have back problems.
My issues are far more complicated.
I've lost my son, my husband,
and I've realized that without my family,
dysfunctional as it was, I'm a failure.
Deb, I'm sure these pills are making you feel better,
but they are not the answer.
You need to get your life in order, starting with therapy.
You're right.
I will make the appointment for you.
Hey, Rachel, just one for my brother.
I got three brothers.
Okay, everyone settle down.
Rachel, you are so hot.
People!
Magazines aren't allowed in class.
And you, stop making a spectacle of yourself.
What's the matter, Mr. Chavez?
I thought you liked high school girls.
After school, Miss Gatina.
Next, we present the latest line from Clothes Over Bro's
by designer Brooke Davis.
Mouthy!
Can you come over here and help me put on my shoe?
I don't wanna chip my nails.
You're up.
Thanks.
Tia, you're up next.
Now I know why they call you Mouth.
By the way, I'm really excited for tonight.
Hey, you! I heard you're helping out with Brooke's show.
Yeah!
-Came to check it out? -Came to check you out.
And I had to ask you a question.
Which do you like better, red or blue?
Red, I guess. Why?
I was trying to figure out what to wear tonight.
On our date?
Right, our date, tonight.
-Well, red it is. Okay, see you tonight. -Yeah.
Tonight.
Hey, guys! Come on in!
Good to see you! Oh, I'm so excited to have the kids.
Listen, I don't want you to worry.
I... I've read all the latest childcare periodicals,
and I'm CPR certified, and I've stocked up on organic snacks
and some really fun learning games for the kids.
So, if you have any questions, feel free.
Just one.
Do you have the numbers for the local authorities?
-Oh, yeah, of course. Yeah. -Super. I'll see you later.
Okay.
Hey, kids! What do you wanna do first?
Kids?
I'd say nice spread, but that's probably inappropriate for a teacher.
Bet you wouldn't have a problem saying it to Brooke.
Aren't you her teacher, too?
I get it.
You like to be the center of attention, get a rise out of people.
-It's the hallmark of insecurity. -Wow.
You're an underpaid high school teacher, sleeping with a student, and I'm insecure?
Yeah, okay.
You seem to be in the driver's seat, Miss Gatina.
-So, what do you want? -Just one thing.
I think we should close the door for this.
Hey. Peyton, you have a visitor.
I have to go to the café before the game,
and I don't want you to be alone, so I called him.
-What happened? -Nothing.
I don't know. I had a panic attack, I guess.
So you weren't fine, but you went to school anyway,
just to prove me wrong.
Okay, fine.
I learned my lesson and now I'm a mess.
You got what you wanted, I guess.
What I want is for you to admit you have a problem, so we can deal with it,
instead of hiding and pretending everything's fine.
Everyday, people all over the world get beat down.
They lose their families, they lose their friends,
and every day, those people fight like hell to put their lives back together.
They don't curl in a ball and give up.
Okay, look, you need to back off. She's had a rough day.
It won't get easier with you babying her every step of the way.
You think you can protect her, but you can't.
The sooner both of you realize that, the better.
You know when the world backs off, Peyton?
-When you make it back off. -Fine.
Then back the hell off.
Okay. I guess I'm done wasting my time.
I think I liked the other Derek better.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have called him.
No, it's fine.
He's a pain in the ass, but he's right.
You should go, too. I'll meet you at the game.
No, you can come with me.
I can't keep letting you save me.
Got to learn to get by on my own.
I'll be fine. Got my watchdog.
Yeah, it's kind of disturbing.
Keeps the monsters at bay.
-Hey! -How's it going?
Amazing! Buyers have been coming up to me all day,
saying they want my line in their stores. And I'm so psyched, I'd pass out,
but I have another show in an hour.
What's the matter?
I wish my timing was better on this,
but there's something you need to know about Nick.
What?
Well, he kept me after school today and when we were alone,
he hit on me.
You can't see him anymore, Brooke. He's a bad guy.
Do you understand that?
I understand that you don't have a boyfriend right now,
and maybe you're feeling a little jealous. It's normal, but...
All right. You don't believe me.
You know what? Never mind. See you later.
What's the holdup?
I think there's a mistake here.
It looks like your doctor has prescribed three different sedatives?
I have a complicated condition,
and I'd appreciate a little sensitivity.
Well, I'm still going to have to confirm this with your doctor's office.
Listen, little man!
I don't know what your problem is, but I don't have time for this crap.
How hard is it to fill one lousy prescription?
Just walk your midget little legs back there,
put the pills in the bottle and hand them over to mommy.
Can you do that, stumpy?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Fine.
Randy, sweetie?
You've been in there a long time.
I have some snacks!
Is this for me?
Thank you, sweetie.
What is that?
Dirt and water.
Dirt and water?
I don't know if you're supposed to...
Oh! Gosh!
-Wow, that's a cool costume! Hey! Hey! -Slash her, Randy!
Slash her! Slash her, Randy!
-Slash her, slash her. Slash her, Randy. -Hey, that hurts.
Sorry, Mom. I'll pay you back. I promise.
And in local news, Mayor Scott's ex-wife, Deb Scott, was arrested today
after attempting to purchase drugs using a falsified prescription.
Her arraignment is scheduled for tomorrow morning.
Damn it, Mom.
She's expected to be charged with prescription fraud.
lf convicted, Mrs. Scott could face up to 10 years in prison.
She is currently at Tree Hill County Jail awaiting bail.
Guess Deb won't be making the game tonight.
Principal Turner, they told me you wanted to see me,
but I'm kind of in a rush, so...
Miss Davis, there are allegations that our newest teacher, Mr. Chavez,
has been having sexual relations with a student.
We're told that student is you.
That's not true.
It's a serious matter, and until it's cleared up,
Mr. Chavez is suspended.
If it comes to light any part of the allegations are true,
he'll be fired.
But they're not.
And whoever said that to you is lying! Who would do that?
I would.
I got suspended today.
I know.
Did you also know that Rachel's a conniving bitch?
I thought she was a friend of yours. Why would she go to the principal?
Because she said you hit on her.
Brooke...
-Is it true? -How can you even ask that?
Especially since she hit on me.
She made some snide comment about us in class. It got me worried.
I tried talking to her, but she started coming on to me.
Said she thought older guys were hot.
Can't believe she'd do that, not to me.
Brooke, people talk about her, even the teachers.
I get the sense that this behavior's pretty typical for Rachel.
Yeah, but I'm her friend.
Hey, I'm sorry about this,
but I think you know me. I hope you do.
How well do you know Rachel?
Hey, Brooke?
Sorry if I'm interrupting,
but do you mind if I borrow this dress tonight?
I'm heading into town with my girls and I got to look fierce.
Sure. You know, why don't you keep it?
Really? Thank you!
Hey! What do you think?
-Bitching, right? -Definitely.
Okay.
That's some dress.
What do you think my chances are of getting such an amazing,
talented designer to kiss me?
So, which one of you whores is my ex-wife?
Oh, right. The old one on the end.
You came all the way down here just to rub it in my face?
Yes.
But I also have a proposition.
I can get you out of this fix,
but you have to sign Tric back to Karen.
-Go to hell. -No, I don't think you understand.
You see, I can bail you out
and use my clout as Mayor to have the charges dropped.
Hell, I'll even throw in a couple of painkillers for your ride home.
Or you can risk spending the next two to four years in prison
as some con's cell bitch,
instead of the regular old bitch you usually are.
You make this go away and I'm not going to rehab.
OD for all I care, Deb,
but you're signing Tric back over to Karen.
I'll see you on the outside, boozy.
God!
Mrs. Dunbar? Hi.
Yeah, everything's great. I was just wondering
when you might be able to come pick up the kids.
Well, it's just that I was expecting you over an hour ago.
Well, no, I can't because my husband's got...
Hello?
Hey!
Who wants to go for a ride?
The crowd is electric tonight.
One more win and the Tree Hill Ravens
will make the State Finals for the first time in 18 years.
More than ever before, all eyes are on Nathan Scott.
Hey, Coach. I thought you should know, I made the call to Duke.
I'm gonna take the scholarship.
-What about Haley? -She's gonna come with me.
Congratulations, son.
You're doing the right thing, but more importantly,
you're doing it the right way.
Thanks, Coach.
Hey, what are those guys doing here?
How should I know?
Well, I saw you talking to them on the River Court.
Mind your own business, Luke.
Nice outfit, Brooke.
I'm so jealous of it.
Oh, wait, look! I'm wearing the same thing.
I am so freaking full of jealousy.
Yeah, I know something else you're full of.
I didn't make it five minutes in there. Go ahead, call me a baby.
I didn't come to call you a baby. I'm here to apologize.
Look, if I promise to quit being a damn jackass,
you think you could forgive me?
I don't know.
I was kind of getting used to the yelling.
Look, I know this psycho's still out there, and I know what he did to you,
but you have a choice. You can let it destroy you,
or you can get up and fight.
And if it feels like I'm beating up on you,
it's only because I want you to get so pissed off
you start swinging back.
Well, I don't know if I'm strong enough.
You feel like you're not strong enough, you fall back on me.
Because I'll be here. Okay?
I'll be here as long as you keep trying.
You said you didn't want that.
I know.
It's just that I haven't let many people in, Peyton.
So maybe I was the one who was scared.
Five minutes, huh?
-Tomorrow, it'll be six. -Yeah, okay.
All right.
Keep your eye on the ball, Scott!
Come on, Nate. Get the ball out, man. What's up?
Sorry.
What is going on out there?
Can somebody explain to me
why we're only four points up when we should be
blowing them out of the water?
It's like you guys are trying to give away points!
Get out there and shoot around. You need it!
-Hey, Nate. What's going on? -With what?
The way you're playing tonight. It's not nerves. I know you.
You don't know anything.
Well, I know you were having money problems,
and I know Dan didn't help you out.
Then suddenly you're talking to those guys out there on court,
and now you're playing like crap.
What do they want you to do, Nate? What, lose the game?
Betray your teammates and your coach for a couple of bucks?
All right, listen to me.
Take the self-righteous attitude and shove it.
Until you're drowning in debt, you got a wife and a kid on the way,
you can't begin to understand what I'm going through right now.
Well, you better help me understand or I'm going to Whitey.
All right, listen. I'd never lose the game, okay? We're still gonna win,
just by less than 10 points.
Lucas, don't, okay?
The only reason we've gone this far is because of me.
Besides, all anybody cares about is winning.
Nobody cares if I gave it my all or not.
You really believe that?
Yeah, okay? I have to believe that.
I got no other way out.
Unless you got 15 grand lying around.
Is there a problem here?
No.
Gee, I really need to stop being roommates
with boyfriend-stealing skanks, Peyton.
Oh, I mean, Rachel.
-What are you talking about? -I talked to Nick.
He told me what really happened.
You went in, shoved your magazine spread in his face and hit on him.
I wouldn't do that to you.
Really? Let's go over the list of things you have done to me.
You tried to seduce Lucas when he was my boyfriend,
take my spot as cheer captain,
and two weeks ago you told the entire school that I was pregnant.
I was just beginning to think you were a real person,
but you're just a slutty lying liar who lies.
Give me, give me, give me, give me!
Guys, that's not polite. Guys, here. Thank you. Sorry. Sorry. Hey, hey!
You guys! Now, don't throw popcorn. Hey! Hey! That is not a nice thing to do.
Hey, Haley! How's the babysitting going?
It's horrible. Listen, these kids are driving me crazy.
The game's already started. I'm completely stressed out.
It's everything I can do to keep from choking the life out of them.
-Karen, what am I doing wrong? -You want the truth?
-Yes. -Nothing.
-You just gotta hang in there. -No, no, no, no! Don't...
Glad you could make it.
-What's this? -Ownership papers to Tric.
It's all yours.
Dan, what did you do?
Oh. I just beat some sense into Deb. I'm kidding.
I caught her at a rare sober moment,
offered to get her some help in exchange for Tric.
Look, accepting an old crib from you is one thing, but this is too much.
You'd rather Deb have it?
You saw the news, she can barely take care of herself.
Look, no matter your feelings for me,
this is the right thing to do for you and the baby
and for business.
Tell me I'm wrong, I'll take it back.
Okay. It's definitely the strangest gift I've ever gotten.
I'm not sure that I'm Million Dollar Baby material.
Trust me, if we share any genes, you've got some fight in you.
Where'd you learn to box?
My dad... Our dad started me really young.
That was before he left my mom and me.
You know, guess that's why I didn't want to meet you.
You know, I always hated him for leaving and meeting Ellie
and having you, even though I didn't know you.
That kind of anger used to eat me up, you know?
But then I started punching it out,
you know, taking the pain head-on, driving it back.
Now, I'm hoping you can do the same. Okay?
The world backs off when you make it back off, right?
Yeah.
-I don't... I don't know if I can. -I do. Come on.
You want to use your whole body. All right?
You want to lean on this foot here, all right?
Okay.
Yeah.
With time winding down in the fourth quarter,
the Ravens have a seven-point lead.
Now, nine points! And the Cats have called time-out.
-Nathan. Take a seat. -What? Why?
'Cause we're up by nine and I'm not gonna expose my best player to injuries.
Coach, we only got a couple of seconds left.
It only takes one to blow out a knee. Now, sit down.
Luke, come here.
Look, they're gonna be looking to foul.
You're our best free-throw shooter,
and I want you to go in there and ice this thing.
One, two, three. Ravens!
If Ravens score one more point,
Nathan Scott doesn't leave this gym in one piece.
So, Lucas Scott checks into the game. Ravens are up by nine.
Just five seconds stand between them and a trip to the State Championship.
Three seconds now... Oh!
And the Ravens pick up a quick steal and that's gonna ice it.
With two seconds left on the clock,
the Ravens are headed to the State Championship.
All that remains is for Lucas Scott to seal it.
What's his free-throw percentage, Gigi?
Well, he's 92%% from the line and 100%% hot.
If Luke can make this free throw, the lead will be 10 points,
and that would be the Ravens' eighth double-digit victory of the season.
The shot's up and it's no good!
The Cats rebound. The buzzers down, so this one's over!
We won!
The crowd storms the court, and this place is going crazy!
The Ravens have won by nine,
and they're headed for the State Championship, baby!
Yeah!
Yo, Mouth! Great job on the play-by-play, dog.
But now that we going to State,
I kind of wanna pump up my profile a little bit,
so I was thinking maybe you could start
referring to me as the "Mad" Skills Taylor?
Everything cool, man?
Actually, I need your advice.
If you had to choose a date between a super-hot model and her model friends,
or a nice girl who's kind of odd, who'd you pick?
That's an interesting dilemma.
I say pick the girl that's the most beautiful on the inside.
Man, is you crazy?
Look, first of all, models ain't just walking around,
handing out party passes to no too-short, no-ass kids like you.
No disrespect. I'm just saying,
don't blow it.
I mean, opportunity only gonna knock once,
and if you don't answer, I will.
Sorry. Have you guys seen a little boy and a little girl?
Blond hair, blue-eyed, really loud and...
Great.
Nice!
All right.
Whoa, that was awesome! When I grow up, I wanna be just like you.
All right. You try.
-Brooke. -Hey. Do you mind if I stay here?
After all that stuff that happened with Rachel today,
I just can't stay with her tonight.
Sure, but I was just heading out to get something to eat.
-You want to? -Yeah.
Yeah, I'm starving. Let me just put my bag down.
Brooke...
Well, I don't know who I hate more, Mr. Chavez.
You, for being a lying bastard, or me,
for believing your crap and betraying my friend.
Regret comes in all shapes and sizes.
Some are small, like when we do a bad thing for a good reason.
Hi, friend.
Some are bigger, like when we let down a friend.
You were right.
I'm sorry, Brooke. I wish I wasn't.
Some of us escape the pangs of regret by making the right choice.
Hi. I'm glad I picked red.
You look beautiful.
Thank you. Goodbye.
That was actually kind of sweet.
Or not.
You still think you like kids?
I'll like our kid.
Some of us have little time for regret
because we're looking forward to the future.
Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past.
And sometimes we bury our regret by promising to change our ways.
I wanted to say thanks.
I know how hard it was for you to throw those points away.
Look, I'll make it up to you and the team at State, okay?
The point shaving was just a one-time thing.
It's over now.
But our biggest regrets are not for the things we did,
but for the things we didn't do,
things we didn't say that could have saved someone we care about.
Nathan.
You know I'll always be there for you.
But never again.
Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way.
