Previously on
<i>The Lying Game...</i>

2
00:00:03,027 --> 00:00:04,894
She was asking a lot of questions about
her mother this summer, right?

3
00:00:05,174 --> 00:00:07,108
I told her what
I always tell her.

4
00:00:07,542 --> 00:00:08,776
(exhales):
The woman is dead.

5
00:00:08,810 --> 00:00:09,877
What are we gonna
tell her when

6
00:00:09,911 --> 00:00:11,412
she finds out
that isn't true?

7
00:00:11,446 --> 00:00:12,580
You didn't steal anything?

8
00:00:12,614 --> 00:00:13,547
You brought me love;

9
00:00:13,582 --> 00:00:15,516
just returning the favor.

10
00:00:15,550 --> 00:00:17,418
(camera shutter clicking)

11
00:00:17,452 --> 00:00:18,419
EDUARDO:
<i>We can't do this.</i>

12
00:00:18,453 --> 00:00:19,420
You should go.

13
00:00:19,454 --> 00:00:20,521
CHAR:
<i>When did</i>

14
00:00:20,555 --> 00:00:21,756
this happen?

15
00:00:21,790 --> 00:00:23,858
Since the first moment
I saw her.

16
00:00:23,892 --> 00:00:26,527
When Sutton gets back,
Ethan, what happens?

17
00:00:26,561 --> 00:00:28,462
You're Sutton's boyfriend.

18
00:00:28,497 --> 00:00:29,630
I know.

19
00:00:29,665 --> 00:00:31,732
THAYER:
<i>We're gonna get a read</i>

20
00:00:31,767 --> 00:00:33,434
on that water tower
behind your mom and Emma.

21
00:00:33,468 --> 00:00:35,503
SUTTON:
<i>Oh, my God, this is amazing.</i>

22
00:00:35,537 --> 00:00:38,606
That's my room.
My crib was right on that wall.

23
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,474
I can't believe I'm
standing in the place

24
00:00:40,509 --> 00:00:41,542
where our mother lived.

25
00:00:41,576 --> 00:00:42,543
We used to fall asleep,

26
00:00:42,577 --> 00:00:43,611
staring at those stars.

27
00:00:43,645 --> 00:00:45,646
Wait, there's something there.

28
00:00:45,681 --> 00:00:48,783
Our mother's name
was Annie Hobbs.

29
00:00:48,817 --> 00:00:51,652
KRISTIN: <i>Everything looks great,</i>
<i>Phyllis.</i>

30
00:00:51,687 --> 00:00:54,455
I have to say, we've really
outdone ourselves this year.

31
00:00:54,489 --> 00:00:56,457
The kids are going
to be blown away.

32
00:00:56,491 --> 00:00:57,658
It gets bigger every year.

33
00:00:57,693 --> 00:00:59,794
Back in the day, ours
were just as big.

34
00:00:59,828 --> 00:01:01,495
(sighing):
Back in the day...

35
00:01:01,530 --> 00:01:03,531
I keep telling Char
to enjoy these things,

36
00:01:03,565 --> 00:01:04,598
these events.

37
00:01:04,633 --> 00:01:06,767
They all happen
so quickly.

38
00:01:06,802 --> 00:01:09,470
Wish I could get
my Char to run.

39
00:01:09,504 --> 00:01:10,805
Certainly has the time now.

40
00:01:10,839 --> 00:01:12,773
♪ ♪

41
00:01:42,938 --> 00:01:45,906
Somebody's been practicing.
Oh, don't stop <i>my</i>   account.

44
00:01:52,614 --> 00:01:53,914
You had to be asked.

45
00:01:53,949 --> 00:01:55,683
(chuckles):
Come on.

46
00:01:55,717 --> 00:01:58,586
Like guys weren't hitting
on you all the time.

47
00:01:58,620 --> 00:02:02,790
Unless you count my pervy
foster brother, Travis, no.

48
00:02:02,824 --> 00:02:04,658
My friend Lexi and I would
just go to the movies.

49
00:02:04,693 --> 00:02:05,860
I'm guessing...

50
00:02:05,894 --> 00:02:08,396
you're not going.

51
00:02:08,430 --> 00:02:09,563
Good guess.

52
00:02:09,598 --> 00:02:11,399
Yeah, you're right,

53
00:02:11,433 --> 00:02:13,734
these high school dances,
they're just so lame.

54
00:02:13,769 --> 00:02:15,503
You kind of looked like you were

55
00:02:15,537 --> 00:02:17,438
having a real good time
a second ago.

56
00:02:17,472 --> 00:02:18,606
That?
Yeah.

57
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:21,409
Yeah, no, I was
just, I was just...

58
00:02:21,443 --> 00:02:22,777
I don't really
know what that was.

59
00:02:22,811 --> 00:02:24,412
(chuckles)
Yeah.

60
00:02:24,446 --> 00:02:25,546
Yeah.
Uh-huh.

61
00:02:25,580 --> 00:02:26,714
Okay, fine, I admit it,

62
00:02:26,748 --> 00:02:29,417
I do want to go to
this thing, but...

63
00:02:29,451 --> 00:02:30,651
it doesn't matter
what I want.

64
00:02:30,685 --> 00:02:31,852
What would Sutton want?

65
00:02:31,887 --> 00:02:34,722
Is she anti-Homecoming, too?

66
00:02:37,459 --> 00:02:38,826
KRISTIN:
<i>You are going to make</i>

67
00:02:38,860 --> 00:02:40,795
a beautiful
Homecoming Queen.

68
00:02:40,829 --> 00:02:42,430
I am?

69
00:02:42,464 --> 00:02:43,831
I know talking about it
jinxes it,

70
00:02:43,865 --> 00:02:46,600
but you'd better get
some posters up--

71
00:02:46,635 --> 00:02:47,701
I've seen Nisha's
everywhere.

72
00:02:47,736 --> 00:02:49,503
And what about those
catchy slogans

73
00:02:49,538 --> 00:02:51,439
you and Char
came up with?

74
00:02:51,473 --> 00:02:52,873
Oh...

75
00:02:52,908 --> 00:02:56,677
we... have to work out
some of the kinks.

76
00:02:56,711 --> 00:02:58,679
What is this?

77
00:02:58,713 --> 00:03:00,781
The school has
asked for photos

78
00:03:00,816 --> 00:03:02,483
from past years' dances.

79
00:03:02,517 --> 00:03:03,751
(both laugh)

80
00:03:03,785 --> 00:03:05,820
You look beautiful.

81
00:03:05,854 --> 00:03:07,488
Thank you.

82
00:03:07,522 --> 00:03:09,457
Your dad and Alec,

83
00:03:09,491 --> 00:03:11,492
they were big men on campus.

84
00:03:11,526 --> 00:03:13,394
- (chuckles): Oh-ho...
- Kind of cheesy.

85
00:03:13,428 --> 00:03:14,829
Yeah, that hair.

86
00:03:14,863 --> 00:03:16,630
Oh.

87
00:03:16,665 --> 00:03:19,533
There's you.
Two days old.

88
00:03:19,568 --> 00:03:20,768
Hmm.

89
00:03:25,674 --> 00:03:27,775
(whispers):
So sweet.

90
00:03:37,486 --> 00:03:39,587
(thunder rumbling in distance)

91
00:03:40,689 --> 00:03:43,624
(water drips into can)

92
00:03:46,595 --> 00:03:50,464
Guess how many Annie Hobbs
there are in the world.

93
00:03:50,499 --> 00:03:53,434
523 in the continental
U.S. alone.

94
00:03:54,836 --> 00:03:56,804
How did you find these?

95
00:03:56,838 --> 00:03:59,673
(sighs): Uh... you don't
want to know how easy it is

96
00:03:59,708 --> 00:04:01,675
to steal Social Security
numbers off the Internet.

97
00:04:01,710 --> 00:04:03,644
You did this when
I was in the shower?

98
00:04:03,678 --> 00:04:05,546
No. Last night.

99
00:04:05,580 --> 00:04:07,781
I couldn't sleep,
so it was either that

100
00:04:07,816 --> 00:04:09,750
or watch the
Hoarders marathon.

101
00:04:09,784 --> 00:04:11,652
So what's next?

102
00:04:11,686 --> 00:04:13,721
We need to cross-reference
with DMV records

103
00:04:13,755 --> 00:04:17,458
state by state, see if we can get
a picture off a driver's license.

104
00:04:17,492 --> 00:04:19,627
Okay. Well, Emma was in
foster care in Nevada,

105
00:04:19,661 --> 00:04:21,462
so let's start there.

106
00:04:21,496 --> 00:04:23,797
(thunder rumbling)
Okay.

107
00:04:25,667 --> 00:04:27,801
SUTTON: How long is
this rain gonna last?

108
00:04:27,836 --> 00:04:30,604
Day or two.

109
00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:33,841
The roof leaks, but...
it's kind of cozy, right?

110
00:04:35,544 --> 00:04:37,545
I guess.

119

Doesn't that mean I'm
grandfathered in or something?

120
00:05:16,718 --> 00:05:18,686
You're not going to
the dance, period.

121
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,761
He's running for Homecoming King--
he needs my support.

122
00:05:20,762 --> 00:05:22,296
What he needs
is a miracle.

123
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:23,757
- He's new at school, right?
- Yes.

124
00:05:23,792 --> 00:05:26,627
And don't you always say
we should root for the underdog?

125
00:05:26,661 --> 00:05:28,395
You can root from home.

126
00:05:28,430 --> 00:05:30,731
Mom, you know how important
Homecoming is.

127
00:05:30,765 --> 00:05:32,433
I think your father's right.

128
00:05:32,467 --> 00:05:33,701
You stole your
sister's laptop.

129
00:05:33,735 --> 00:05:35,769
You tried to blame
an innocent kid.

130
00:05:35,804 --> 00:05:38,505
You can't expect us to pretend
like it didn't happen.

131
00:05:38,540 --> 00:05:40,407
So unfair!

132
00:05:41,743 --> 00:05:43,544
So?

133
00:05:44,646 --> 00:05:46,614
Parole denied.

134
00:05:46,648 --> 00:05:49,350
(groans):
Oh! I was hoping...

135
00:05:49,384 --> 00:05:50,618
What, you were worried
I was going

136
00:05:50,652 --> 00:05:51,685
to miss your acceptance speech?

137
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,621
Right. Acceptance speech.

138
00:05:53,655 --> 00:05:55,522
Hey, Laurel.

139
00:05:55,557 --> 00:05:57,791
You've done

140
00:05:57,826 --> 00:05:59,793
so much for me and Ethan,

141
00:05:59,828 --> 00:06:02,463
you know, the whole
laptop confession...

142
00:06:02,497 --> 00:06:04,565
I... can't go without you.

143
00:06:04,599 --> 00:06:06,433
It wouldn't be fair.

144
00:06:06,468 --> 00:06:08,502
- You'll get over it.
- No, I won't.

145
00:06:08,536 --> 00:06:10,504
I won't. So I'm
not gonna go.

146
00:06:10,538 --> 00:06:11,672
I'm gonna skip the dance.

147
00:06:11,706 --> 00:06:13,540
Sister solidarity.

148
00:06:13,575 --> 00:06:15,776
Right? And...
we'll stay here,

149
00:06:15,810 --> 00:06:18,545
we'll do makeovers,
eat junk food...

150
00:06:18,580 --> 00:06:20,547
And what about the grand plan?

151
00:06:20,582 --> 00:06:22,516
Sutton Mercer wins Queen
junior year,

152
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:23,717
wins again senior year.

153
00:06:23,752 --> 00:06:25,552
By the way, you pull that off,

154
00:06:25,587 --> 00:06:27,688
and you'll get your own shelf
in the trophy case.

155
00:06:27,722 --> 00:06:29,556
Right now you're more important.

156
00:06:29,591 --> 00:06:31,592
Seriously, if you
hadn't come forward

157
00:06:31,626 --> 00:06:34,395
like you did,
Ethan would be in jail.

158
00:06:34,429 --> 00:06:37,364
(sighs)

159
00:06:38,366 --> 00:06:40,501
Well, I suppose you do owe me.

160
00:06:40,535 --> 00:06:41,635
Exactly.

161
00:06:41,670 --> 00:06:43,537
So girls' night, it is.

162
00:06:47,542 --> 00:06:49,610
MADS:
<i>What are you doing here?</i>

163
00:06:49,644 --> 00:06:51,845
I missed you
at rehearsal last night.

164
00:06:53,581 --> 00:06:55,716
I tweaked a hamstring
in gym class, so...

165
00:06:55,750 --> 00:06:57,818
I thought I'd
give it a rest.

166
00:06:57,852 --> 00:06:59,420
So you're okay, then?

167
00:06:59,454 --> 00:07:00,754
I mean, after what happened.

168
00:07:00,789 --> 00:07:03,590
I kissed you;
I shouldn't have done that.

169
00:07:03,625 --> 00:07:07,294
Look, Mads, I think you are
an amazing dancer, and...

170
00:07:07,328 --> 00:07:09,463
I don't want things
to be awkward between us.

171
00:07:09,497 --> 00:07:10,731
Not with the recital
coming up.

172
00:07:10,765 --> 00:07:13,367
I came over to see if
there was a... a problem.

173
00:07:13,401 --> 00:07:15,636
You could have told me
all that over the phone.

174
00:07:15,670 --> 00:07:17,705
ALEC (calls):
Mads, I'm home.

175
00:07:17,739 --> 00:07:20,374
(quietly):
You stay in here.

176
00:07:20,408 --> 00:07:22,309
Why? We weren't
doing anything.

177
00:07:22,343 --> 00:07:24,745
You know my dad--
if he finds me with you, he'll freak.

178
00:07:24,779 --> 00:07:26,480
Hey, Dad.

179
00:07:27,482 --> 00:07:28,749
Hey, honey.

180
00:07:28,783 --> 00:07:31,752
Hey. I thought you didn't
get back until tomorrow.

181
00:07:31,786 --> 00:07:33,520
Uh, the conference
wrapped up early,

182
00:07:33,555 --> 00:07:35,389
and I took
an early flight home.

183
00:07:35,423 --> 00:07:37,558
- Oh.
- You okay?

184
00:07:37,592 --> 00:07:39,393
- Mm-hmm.
- You feel a little warm.

185
00:07:39,427 --> 00:07:40,527
(smacks lips)

186
00:07:40,562 --> 00:07:42,596
Might be coming down
with something.

187
00:07:42,630 --> 00:07:45,499
- Yeah, there's a lot of stuff going around.
- Yeah, yeah, I hear.

188
00:07:45,533 --> 00:07:48,335
- You good enough to go to school?
- Uh, yeah.

189
00:07:48,369 --> 00:07:49,636
All right, go get ready.

190
00:07:49,671 --> 00:07:51,538
I got some calls to make.

191
00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:03,717
(phone rings)

192
00:08:03,752 --> 00:08:05,519
Hello?

193
00:08:05,553 --> 00:08:07,554
Dr. Hughes, it's Alec Rybak.

194
00:08:07,589 --> 00:08:09,656
Did you check
Annie Hobbs day log?

195
00:08:09,691 --> 00:08:11,692
Yes, and she hasn't had
any visitors

196
00:08:11,726 --> 00:08:13,761
since the last time
you were here.

197
00:08:13,795 --> 00:08:15,529
You're absolutely certain?

198
00:08:15,563 --> 00:08:17,531
Our security's airtight.

199
00:08:17,565 --> 00:08:19,666
For what I'm paying,
it'd better be.

200
00:08:19,701 --> 00:08:21,668
This visitor
you're concerned about,

201
00:08:21,703 --> 00:08:24,438
will it be a man or a woman?

202
00:08:24,472 --> 00:08:25,639
It's a girl. Teenager.

203
00:08:25,673 --> 00:08:27,508
She calls herself Sutton Mercer.

204
00:08:27,542 --> 00:08:28,675
Now, I'm guessing

205
00:08:28,710 --> 00:08:30,511
she's looking
for a payday.

206
00:08:30,545 --> 00:08:32,579
She's gonna be making
a lot of crazy claims.

207
00:08:32,614 --> 00:08:35,415
I can send you a picture,
if that'd be helpful.

208
00:08:35,450 --> 00:08:36,517
Got it.

209
00:08:36,551 --> 00:08:37,618
Sutton Mercer.

210
00:08:37,652 --> 00:08:38,786
Thank you, Doctor.

211
00:08:48,496 --> 00:08:51,398
Keep an eye out
(rustling from other room)

212
00:08:52,467 --> 00:08:54,368
Mads?

213
00:09:08,485 --> 00:09:10,918
Your sister's pulling out.
Why should I?

214
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:12,686
For the exact same reason.
Well, because...

215
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,588
because, because I should
totally be dating

216
00:09:14,622 --> 00:09:16,590
the Homecoming King.

217
00:09:16,624 --> 00:09:19,726
<i>Oh.</i> The truth
finally comes out.

218
00:09:19,761 --> 00:09:21,762
Let me put it
another way.

219
00:09:21,796 --> 00:09:24,832
This is the social
equivalent to...

220
00:09:24,866 --> 00:09:26,834
winning the Masters.

221
00:09:26,868 --> 00:09:28,836
But instead of getting
a green jacket,

222
00:09:28,870 --> 00:09:32,439
you go from transfer student
to Arroyo's hottest bachelor.

223
00:09:32,473 --> 00:09:35,509
Mm. But...

224
00:09:35,543 --> 00:09:37,444
I'm taken.

225
00:09:37,478 --> 00:09:39,613
Taken?

226
00:09:39,647 --> 00:09:43,450
God, that does have a
wonderful ring to it. (chuckles)

227
00:09:43,484 --> 00:09:44,918
Look, you do realize
the guys from the team

228
00:09:44,953 --> 00:09:46,820
put me on the ballot
as a joke, right?

229
00:09:46,855 --> 00:09:48,922
General pop
doesn't know that.

230
00:09:48,957 --> 00:09:51,725
All they know is that you're
new and cute and interesting.

231
00:09:51,759 --> 00:09:53,493
Now...

232
00:09:53,528 --> 00:09:56,897
what you need is a good
campaign manager...

233
00:09:56,931 --> 00:09:59,533
and luckily, my services
are available.

234
00:09:59,567 --> 00:10:00,801
(laughs)

235
00:10:00,835 --> 00:10:03,804
First order of business...
visibility.

236
00:10:03,838 --> 00:10:05,806
LAUREL:
Vote Justin for Homecoming King.

237
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,542
(whispers):
Vote for him.

238
00:10:13,848 --> 00:10:16,917
Hey, I can't believe you're
dropping out of the race.

239
00:10:16,951 --> 00:10:18,852
Nisha's got virtually
no competition,

240
00:10:18,887 --> 00:10:20,654
and if she wins,

241
00:10:20,688 --> 00:10:21,989
I can't even imagine.

242
00:10:22,023 --> 00:10:24,524
Okay, well, if it means
that much to her,

243
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:25,626
maybe we should just...

244
00:10:25,660 --> 00:10:27,761
Let her win.
Are you kidding?

245
00:10:27,795 --> 00:10:29,830
We'd be creating
a monster.

246
00:10:29,864 --> 00:10:31,765
I'm doing it for Laurel, okay?

247
00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:34,668
She's so bummed that
she's missing the dance.

248
00:10:34,702 --> 00:10:36,737
Hey, guys. I'm gonna hit
the plaza after school.

249
00:10:36,771 --> 00:10:38,805
Shop for a Homecoming dress--
who wants to join?

250
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,775
For you, I'm thinking purple:
very regal, very Kate Middleton.

251
00:10:41,809 --> 00:10:43,610
Sutton's not running.

252
00:10:43,645 --> 00:10:45,545
Right. So, like I was saying,
something totally royal,

253
00:10:45,580 --> 00:10:46,813
with just a hint
of the unexpected.

254
00:10:46,848 --> 00:10:50,751
Char, no, really,
I'm sitting this one out.

255
00:10:51,686 --> 00:10:53,854
I don't get it.

256
00:10:53,888 --> 00:10:55,889
We've been planning your
campaign since eighth grade.

257
00:10:55,924 --> 00:10:57,858
I'm the Pippa
to your Kate, remember?

258
00:10:57,892 --> 00:10:59,593
I've got four campaign
posters in the works.

259
00:10:59,627 --> 00:11:02,496
My mom saw them and said,
why don't I run?

260
00:11:02,530 --> 00:11:03,764
Well, why <i>don't</i> you run?
Sutton,

261
00:11:03,798 --> 00:11:06,500
I told you a million times,
I'm a behind-the-scenes girl.

262
00:11:06,534 --> 00:11:07,935
Ladies, looking lovely.

263
00:11:07,969 --> 00:11:09,870
Save it, Nisha, we're
not voting for you.

264
00:11:09,904 --> 00:11:11,605
Like I even
need your votes

265
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:13,840
now that it's basically
a one-woman race.

266
00:11:13,875 --> 00:11:15,943
Was up for the competition,
Sutton, but

267
00:11:15,977 --> 00:11:18,912
I'm sure you have your
reasons for not running.

268
00:11:18,947 --> 00:11:21,548
And I assume you're bringing
your new boy toy to the dance,

269
00:11:21,582 --> 00:11:23,517
or is that

270
00:11:23,551 --> 00:11:24,685
still on the DL?

271
00:11:24,719 --> 00:11:26,586
Actually, I'm
going solo.

272
00:11:26,621 --> 00:11:27,754
But why don't
you ask Eduardo?

273
00:11:27,789 --> 00:11:29,523
Went so well last time.

274
00:11:29,557 --> 00:11:30,891
Please, the
dude is cute

275
00:11:30,925 --> 00:11:33,794
but hardly my type.
- Mm-hmm.

276
00:11:35,763 --> 00:11:38,865
Um... you're dating Eduardo?

277
00:11:38,900 --> 00:11:40,867
For, like,
six months.

278
00:11:40,902 --> 00:11:43,704
I guess I wasn't the only one
in the dark on this one.

279
00:11:43,738 --> 00:11:46,740
I just said I was to
save face with Nisha.

280
00:11:46,774 --> 00:11:48,709
Because
she likes him, too.

281
00:11:48,743 --> 00:11:52,679
And you know how she gets when
there's a trophy on the line.

282
00:11:55,917 --> 00:11:59,686
THAYER: No matches in
Nevada or Utah.

283
00:11:59,721 --> 00:12:01,588
Moving on
to Idaho.

284
00:12:01,622 --> 00:12:02,856
(typing)

285
00:12:02,890 --> 00:12:06,860
I was thinking,
what if Annie Hobbs is hiding

286
00:12:06,894 --> 00:12:10,530
from us, from me?
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

287
00:12:10,565 --> 00:12:13,700
Have a little faith
in the ones and zeros.

288
00:12:13,735 --> 00:12:15,702
Okay, we are going
to track her down.

289
00:12:15,737 --> 00:12:17,738
What if she just
doesn't want to be found?

290
00:12:19,607 --> 00:12:21,675
Emma was right-- I should
just go back to Phoenix.

291
00:12:21,709 --> 00:12:24,578
I have wasted enough
of your time.

292
00:12:24,612 --> 00:12:26,580
You should really be working
on your app.

293
00:12:26,614 --> 00:12:30,584
Look, at least we have a decent
chance of finding Annie.

294
00:12:30,618 --> 00:12:31,718
Okay?

295
00:12:31,753 --> 00:12:32,953
As for me
creating

296
00:12:32,987 --> 00:12:35,822
the next Angry Birds,
look at me.

297
00:12:35,857 --> 00:12:39,726
I'm living in a leaky apartment,
taking handouts from my sister.

298
00:12:39,761 --> 00:12:41,995
(soda fizzing)

299
00:12:42,030 --> 00:12:45,599
Not exactly feeling
like the next Steve Jobs.

300
00:12:45,633 --> 00:12:46,900
Are you kidding?

301
00:12:46,934 --> 00:12:50,537
You are going to be
a huge success.

302
00:12:50,571 --> 00:12:52,939
- Sutton.
- No, seriously, really.

303
00:12:52,974 --> 00:12:54,641
You are super smart,

304
00:12:54,675 --> 00:12:56,943
and you are
the most dedicated guy I know.

305
00:12:56,978 --> 00:12:58,678
Honestly,
if it weren't for you,

306
00:12:58,713 --> 00:13:01,782
I would have given up
on this search so long ago.

307
00:13:01,816 --> 00:13:04,684
You have been amazing.

308
00:13:04,719 --> 00:13:07,554
I mean that, really.

309
00:13:08,589 --> 00:13:10,791
(thunder rumbling)

310
00:13:12,593 --> 00:13:14,561
Thayer, uh...

311
00:13:14,595 --> 00:13:16,596
(beep)
(thunder rumbling)

312
00:13:16,631 --> 00:13:21,601
Uh, I should go find
that circuit breaker.

313
00:13:26,707 --> 00:13:28,708
I'm starting to think

314
00:13:28,743 --> 00:13:31,912
that my dropping out of the race
is a big mistake.

315
00:13:31,946 --> 00:13:33,513
No, you're doing
the right thing.

316
00:13:33,548 --> 00:13:34,748
But no one
seems to buy

317
00:13:34,782 --> 00:13:37,551
that Sutton would give up
the chance to be queen.

318
00:13:37,585 --> 00:13:38,618
Because she wouldn't.

319
00:13:38,653 --> 00:13:39,753
So you're saying I should run?

320
00:13:39,787 --> 00:13:40,987
Personally, I
never understood

321
00:13:41,022 --> 00:13:43,557
why she was so into it
in the first place.

322
00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:48,695
Maybe I should just
ask her what to do.

323
00:13:48,729 --> 00:13:49,930
Every day

324
00:13:49,964 --> 00:13:53,667
I am here,
it's like I am losing

325
00:13:53,701 --> 00:13:55,535
a little piece
of myself.

326
00:13:55,570 --> 00:13:57,003
You're not.

327
00:13:57,038 --> 00:13:59,940
You're still Emma, and you're
never going to be Sutton.

328
00:13:59,974 --> 00:14:02,943
Gee, thanks
for the encouragement.

329
00:14:02,977 --> 00:14:05,812
I wasn't saying it
as a bad thing.

330
00:14:08,883 --> 00:14:10,817
Nice.

331
00:14:10,852 --> 00:14:13,520
Really, you think so?

332
00:14:13,554 --> 00:14:15,789
Definitely. Where'd you
learn to draw like this?

333
00:14:15,823 --> 00:14:18,592
Just kind of always
been able to do it.

334
00:14:18,626 --> 00:14:19,926
You're lucky.

335
00:14:19,961 --> 00:14:22,929
Only thing I was born with
was my dad's right hook.

336
00:14:22,964 --> 00:14:25,699
Oh...

337
00:14:25,733 --> 00:14:27,534
Oh, that's it.

338
00:14:27,568 --> 00:14:28,602
What, what's it?

339
00:14:28,636 --> 00:14:30,704
What if I got this
from my mother?

340
00:14:30,738 --> 00:14:35,609
No, Sutton found that mural
in my bedroom of the night sky.

341
00:14:35,643 --> 00:14:36,877
Those stars
weren't stenciled,

342
00:14:36,911 --> 00:14:39,613
They were painted
by my mother.

343
00:14:39,647 --> 00:14:40,981
She even signed it.

344
00:14:42,650 --> 00:14:45,752
What if Annie Hobbs
was an artist?

345
00:14:51,619 --> 00:14:53,787
Okay, that's all for today.
Thank you, girls.

346
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:55,260
Hey, about this morning...

347
00:14:55,294 --> 00:14:57,328
We can't talk here.

348
00:15:01,934 --> 00:15:03,935
Mr. Rybak, what
a nice surprise.

349
00:15:03,969 --> 00:15:07,172
Hi, Nisha, I didn't
know you took ballet.

350
00:15:07,206 --> 00:15:08,973
I don't; just
dropping off a check

351
00:15:09,008 --> 00:15:11,176
for a few private lessons
I took with Eduardo.

352
00:15:11,210 --> 00:15:13,044
You must be so proud

353
00:15:13,079 --> 00:15:15,213
of Mads, having the lead
in the recital.

354
00:15:15,247 --> 00:15:16,537
Yeah.

355
00:15:16,562 --> 00:15:17,802
Between you and me,
I never believed

356
00:15:17,817 --> 00:15:19,851
the rumors
about her and Eduardo.

357
00:15:19,885 --> 00:15:22,821
What rumors?

358
00:15:22,855 --> 00:15:24,989
Oh.

359
00:15:25,024 --> 00:15:26,257
Whoops.

360
00:15:26,292 --> 00:15:27,959
Nisha.

361
00:15:27,993 --> 00:15:30,261
A rumor-- probably nothing
to it, nothing at all.

362
00:15:30,296 --> 00:15:31,830
I mean,
that's why

363
00:15:31,864 --> 00:15:34,165
they call them rumors, right?

364
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,167
Right.

365
00:15:38,938 --> 00:15:41,172
What did she want?

366
00:15:41,207 --> 00:15:43,141
Nothing.

367
00:15:43,175 --> 00:15:44,976
No, she was just talking
about some crazy rumors

368
00:15:45,010 --> 00:15:46,277
about you
and Eduardo.

369
00:15:46,312 --> 00:15:48,246
She is so...

370
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:49,981
I've already told you,

371
00:15:50,015 --> 00:15:52,117
there is nothing going on
between me and Eduardo.

372
00:15:52,151 --> 00:15:55,053
He's an amazing choreographer
and he's a perfect gentleman.

373
00:15:56,155 --> 00:15:58,223
Honey, it's
my experience,

374
00:15:58,257 --> 00:16:02,827
there is no such thing
as a perfect gentleman.

375
00:16:05,965 --> 00:16:07,866
Hey, you want
something to eat?

376
00:16:07,900 --> 00:16:09,768
No, I'll get
something later.

377
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:12,036
Come on, sit down,
I made some steaks.

378
00:16:19,145 --> 00:16:22,847
So listen, uh...

379
00:16:22,882 --> 00:16:24,883
about the laptop,

380
00:16:24,917 --> 00:16:25,950
I'm sorry, you
were right,

381
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:27,752
I should have
trusted you on that.

382
00:16:27,787 --> 00:16:29,854
Can't say it
surprises me that

383
00:16:29,889 --> 00:16:31,790
Laurel Mercer was behind it.

384
00:16:31,824 --> 00:16:33,825
Those sisters are
nothing but trouble.

385
00:16:33,859 --> 00:16:35,760
You don't know
anything about 'em.

386
00:16:35,795 --> 00:16:37,829
I know that I was almost
suspended last year without pay

387
00:16:37,863 --> 00:16:39,230
because of one
of Sutton's little lying games.

388
00:16:39,265 --> 00:16:41,099
She's different now.

389
00:16:41,133 --> 00:16:44,068
She cares more about people,

390
00:16:44,103 --> 00:16:48,039
about her family... about me.

391
00:16:48,073 --> 00:16:50,875
Is she still keeping you
a secret from her friends?

392
00:16:50,910 --> 00:16:52,877
So what if she is?

393
00:16:52,912 --> 00:16:55,180
I know that the last
thing you want to hear

394
00:16:55,214 --> 00:16:57,215
is my opinion.

395
00:16:58,818 --> 00:17:00,785
But I've been there.

396
00:17:00,820 --> 00:17:02,754
If someone's trying
to hide the fact

397
00:17:02,788 --> 00:17:03,955
that they're
with you,

398
00:17:03,989 --> 00:17:08,126
it's not
a real relationship, man.

399
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,128
Girls like
Sutton Mercer--

400
00:17:10,162 --> 00:17:15,066
you can park their cars,
but you just can't date 'em.

401
00:17:18,070 --> 00:17:20,772
Come on, Sutton, where are you?

402
00:17:20,806 --> 00:17:21,906
(knocking)

403
00:17:21,941 --> 00:17:23,041
TED:
Hey, sport.

404
00:17:23,075 --> 00:17:24,776
Hi.
What are you doing?

405
00:17:24,810 --> 00:17:25,877
(clicking, beeping)

406
00:17:25,911 --> 00:17:28,813
I was picking out

407
00:17:28,848 --> 00:17:31,783
pictures of your Homecoming

408
00:17:31,817 --> 00:17:33,218
to send over
to the school.

409
00:17:33,252 --> 00:17:35,854
They're doing some sort
of display or something.

410
00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:39,023
(chuckles)

411
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:42,961
Who talked me into a pink tie?

412
00:17:42,995 --> 00:17:45,897
Oh, wait, oh, that was me.

413
00:17:45,931 --> 00:17:47,031
Nice.

414
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:48,166
(laughs)

415
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,902
Live, you learn.

416
00:18:00,045 --> 00:18:02,113
Hmm.

417
00:18:02,147 --> 00:18:04,916
I love this picture.
Hmm.

418
00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:06,050
Who...

419
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:07,785
took it again?

420
00:18:07,820 --> 00:18:09,721
I don't remember
what you had told me.

421
00:18:09,755 --> 00:18:12,857
The guy
from the adoption agency.

422
00:18:12,892 --> 00:18:16,194
Oh, right, right,
the baby broker.

423
00:18:16,228 --> 00:18:17,829
Baby broker?

424
00:18:17,863 --> 00:18:19,163
Honey, we used
an adoption agency.

425
00:18:19,198 --> 00:18:22,133
Okay.

426
00:18:22,167 --> 00:18:26,104
Hey, did the adoption
agency ever tell you

427
00:18:26,138 --> 00:18:28,873
what my birth mother
did for a living?

428
00:18:28,908 --> 00:18:31,009
Honey, we've been
over this.

429
00:18:31,043 --> 00:18:35,813
I know, just-- I don't know,
she could be anything.

430
00:18:35,848 --> 00:18:38,917
She could
have been, um,

431
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:43,087
a doctor or a
waitress, artist.

432
00:18:43,122 --> 00:18:45,857
(phone ringing)
You'd better get that.

433
00:18:47,026 --> 00:18:48,993
(dry chuckle)

434
00:18:49,028 --> 00:18:51,930
(phone rings)

435
00:18:59,038 --> 00:19:01,039
Hello?

436
00:19:04,009 --> 00:19:05,977
(Emma gasps)

437
00:19:06,011 --> 00:19:10,014
Easy there, tiger, it's just us.

438
00:19:10,049 --> 00:19:12,050
(singsongy):
Check it out.

439
00:19:13,052 --> 00:19:14,185
Isn't it
fantastic?

440
00:19:14,219 --> 00:19:16,020
Char got the guy
at the copy shop

441
00:19:16,055 --> 00:19:18,022
to do the layout
for free.

442
00:19:18,057 --> 00:19:20,220
Had to show a little leg,
but it was totally worth it.

443
00:19:20,245 --> 00:19:21,336
Guys.

444
00:19:21,337 --> 00:19:23,027
I know you want to
stay home with Laurel,

445
00:19:23,028 --> 00:19:25,897
but Nisha crossed a line,
saying something to my dad.

446
00:19:25,931 --> 00:19:27,732
If that's the only reason--
because of Nisha--

447
00:19:27,766 --> 00:19:30,101
I think maybe it's time
to just try and make peace.

448
00:19:30,135 --> 00:19:32,003
Again?
Please.

449
00:19:32,037 --> 00:19:33,871
CHAR: You have to do
it, Sutton,

450
00:19:33,906 --> 00:19:36,040
for us, for me.

451
00:19:36,075 --> 00:19:37,875
I've already started on
the acceptance speech.

452
00:19:37,910 --> 00:19:40,011
MADS: See, we've done
all the leg work.

453
00:19:40,045 --> 00:19:42,981
Now all you have to
do is just radiate.

454
00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:00,880
- Good morning, sweetheart.
- Morning.

455
00:20:01,561 --> 00:20:04,529
So I wanted to talk
to you guys about something.

456
00:20:06,666 --> 00:20:08,667
It's about Laurel.

457
00:20:08,701 --> 00:20:11,503
I was kind of hoping
you would reconsider

458
00:20:11,537 --> 00:20:13,438
letting her go
to Homecoming.

459
00:20:13,473 --> 00:20:15,507
Did your sister put you
up to this?

460
00:20:15,541 --> 00:20:18,310
No, no. She has
no idea I'm out here.

461
00:20:18,344 --> 00:20:19,544
KRISTIN: I just don't
understand.

462
00:20:19,579 --> 00:20:23,682
She stole your things,
blamed your boyfriend.

463
00:20:23,716 --> 00:20:26,618
I know, and I was really mad,

464
00:20:26,653 --> 00:20:30,355
and she told me why she did it,
and it...

465
00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:34,359
Look, I know in the past,

466
00:20:34,394 --> 00:20:37,696
I haven't been
a great sister to her,

467
00:20:37,730 --> 00:20:41,466
but I just want
the chance to fix it.

468
00:20:42,702 --> 00:20:46,371
Please, for me?

469
00:20:47,373 --> 00:20:49,374
For us?

470
00:20:51,477 --> 00:20:54,379
Everyone take one,
pass them around.

471
00:20:54,414 --> 00:20:56,682
Vote for Sutton.

472
00:20:56,716 --> 00:20:59,351
You've obviously got the jocks
and cheerleaders on your side,

473
00:20:59,385 --> 00:21:00,552
but we need to
build your base.

474
00:21:00,586 --> 00:21:02,487
Now, today's sche--
vote Sutton.

475
00:21:02,522 --> 00:21:03,622
Whatever you
say, Char.

476
00:21:03,656 --> 00:21:05,324
Who's that?

477
00:21:05,358 --> 00:21:08,193
Couple classes together,
definitely fringe.

478
00:21:08,227 --> 00:21:09,661
Another group we
need to work on.

479
00:21:09,696 --> 00:21:11,496
So your schedule
for today:

480
00:21:11,531 --> 00:21:13,532
12:00-- lunch with
the yearbook staff,

481
00:21:13,566 --> 00:21:16,301
2:00 p.m.-- hand out cupcakes
to the marching band.

482
00:21:16,336 --> 00:21:18,403
Cupcakes, really?

483
00:21:18,438 --> 00:21:20,505
Um, Nisha's got
a big lead.

484
00:21:20,540 --> 00:21:23,608
If we want to beat her,
we have to dig deep.

485
00:21:23,643 --> 00:21:25,377
Don't be late
to the lunch.

486
00:21:25,411 --> 00:21:28,380
Okay.

487
00:21:30,683 --> 00:21:32,651
So much for sister solidarity.

488
00:21:32,685 --> 00:21:35,002
Sutton Mercer,
back in the race.

489
00:21:35,003 --> 00:21:35,882
Laurel...

490
00:21:35,907 --> 00:21:37,389
Just when I thought
there was actual

491
00:21:37,390 --> 00:21:39,624
hope for us.

492
00:21:39,659 --> 00:21:41,259
Laurel, stop.

493
00:21:41,294 --> 00:21:44,396
You can go to the dance.

494
00:21:44,430 --> 00:21:45,664
What?

495
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:48,467
Since when?

496
00:21:48,501 --> 00:21:50,402
Since I worked

497
00:21:50,436 --> 00:21:51,703
my magic with
Mom and Dad.

498
00:21:51,738 --> 00:21:53,705
I mean, technically,
you're still grounded,

499
00:21:53,740 --> 00:21:55,340
but they said they'd spring you

500
00:21:55,375 --> 00:21:56,475
for the night.

501
00:21:56,509 --> 00:21:59,411
Now...

502
00:21:59,445 --> 00:22:02,514
go tell your candidate
the good news.

503
00:22:02,548 --> 00:22:04,216
(grunts happily)

504
00:22:04,250 --> 00:22:06,251
(both laugh)

505
00:22:07,253 --> 00:22:08,387
- Hi.
- Hey.

506
00:22:08,421 --> 00:22:10,589
Um, I can go
to the dance.

507
00:22:10,623 --> 00:22:12,290
JUSTIN:
To-to the dance?

508
00:22:12,325 --> 00:22:14,226
(phone ringing) Mm-hmm.
All right.

509
00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:15,560
What's with
the text?

510
00:22:15,595 --> 00:22:18,230
So, I guess this means
you're running.

511
00:22:18,264 --> 00:22:19,531
Got to say,

512
00:22:19,565 --> 00:22:21,533
I'm surprised
Sutton's cool with it.

513
00:22:21,567 --> 00:22:24,369
I keep trying to reach her,
but I can't get through.

514
00:22:24,404 --> 00:22:26,671
You know, this campaign
has taken on a life of its own.

515
00:22:26,706 --> 00:22:28,373
Char has me booked back-to-back,

516
00:22:28,408 --> 00:22:30,242
schmoozing
voters and,

517
00:22:30,276 --> 00:22:33,245
you know, to be honest,
I'm not really a people person,

518
00:22:33,279 --> 00:22:34,646
not like Sutton.

519
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,381
Just be yourself.

520
00:22:36,416 --> 00:22:37,582
I can't be me and her

521
00:22:37,617 --> 00:22:39,484
at the same time.

522
00:22:39,519 --> 00:22:43,355
I'm playing this part,
and it has its perks.

523
00:22:45,425 --> 00:22:49,428
But... okay, listen,

524
00:22:49,462 --> 00:22:52,230
I know

525
00:22:52,265 --> 00:22:54,266
that you're not
into high school functions,

526
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:56,334
but it's gonna be
a really crazy night,

527
00:22:56,369 --> 00:22:58,670
and it would be really great
if I had my boy...

528
00:22:58,704 --> 00:23:00,572
my one

529
00:23:00,606 --> 00:23:03,375
real friend there.

530
00:23:03,409 --> 00:23:07,579
Sutton has made it pretty clear
she doesn't want people

531
00:23:07,613 --> 00:23:09,581
to see us together.

532
00:23:09,615 --> 00:23:12,651
I'm her secret boyfriend,
remember?

533
00:23:12,685 --> 00:23:16,621
Well, we don't have
to go... <i>together,</i> together.

534
00:23:16,656 --> 00:23:18,557
I mean, we can...

535
00:23:18,591 --> 00:23:22,394
You can stay on the other side
of the room if you wanted to.

536
00:23:22,428 --> 00:23:24,529
I... Just knowing
that you're there and

537
00:23:24,564 --> 00:23:28,600
close-- I think it would
help me pull it off.

538
00:23:28,634 --> 00:23:32,304
Please?

539
00:23:33,439 --> 00:23:35,440
I can't.

540
00:23:37,677 --> 00:23:40,612
I can't.

541
00:23:45,551 --> 00:23:48,320
KRISTIN:
<i>Close your eyes.</i>

542
00:23:49,422 --> 00:23:52,290
Okay, open.

543
00:23:52,325 --> 00:23:53,692
I thought it might come in handy

544
00:23:53,726 --> 00:23:55,594
while you're getting ready
for the dance.

545
00:23:55,628 --> 00:23:58,330
You can try it
with different hairstyles,

546
00:23:58,364 --> 00:23:59,598
see which one looks best,

547
00:23:59,632 --> 00:24:01,700
and you've always had
such beautiful hair.

548
00:24:01,734 --> 00:24:04,269
I-I think... I think
you should wear it down.

549
00:24:04,303 --> 00:24:05,470
- Mom?
- Or up.

550
00:24:05,505 --> 00:24:07,372
Up is fantastic.

551
00:24:07,406 --> 00:24:09,341
(laughs quietly)

552
00:24:09,375 --> 00:24:13,512
I know you're really happy
that I'm running for queen.

553
00:24:13,546 --> 00:24:15,547
What if I lose?

554
00:24:15,581 --> 00:24:18,617
I just...
I don't want to let you down.

555
00:24:18,651 --> 00:24:21,353
It's not possible.

556
00:24:30,463 --> 00:24:33,365
I got to go get
dinner ready.

557
00:24:33,399 --> 00:24:35,367
Okay.

558
00:24:35,401 --> 00:24:37,602
(computer chirping)

559
00:24:43,342 --> 00:24:45,477
Hey. Oh, I am so
glad you called.

560
00:24:45,511 --> 00:24:48,280
So, I have this theory

561
00:24:48,314 --> 00:24:50,582
that Annie Hobbs was an artist,
and I figured it out when...

562
00:24:50,616 --> 00:24:52,651
Excuse me.

563
00:24:52,685 --> 00:24:54,653
Is that my my mom's tiara?

564
00:24:58,257 --> 00:24:59,457
Homecoming is coming up.

565
00:24:59,492 --> 00:25:01,459
And, what, you're running?

566
00:25:01,494 --> 00:25:04,429
I've been trying to tell you,
but I just couldn't reach you.

567
00:25:04,463 --> 00:25:07,332
Well, the power's been down.

568
00:25:07,366 --> 00:25:09,367
I wanted to pull out
of the race,

569
00:25:09,402 --> 00:25:11,536
but people were starting
to get suspicious.

570
00:25:11,571 --> 00:25:14,472
It's really honestly the only
reason why I am doing this,

571
00:25:14,507 --> 00:25:16,274
because I have to.

572
00:25:16,309 --> 00:25:18,376
Well, you can say no, okay?

573
00:25:18,411 --> 00:25:20,178
I tried.

574
00:25:20,213 --> 00:25:22,147
You don't understand
what it's been like...

575
00:25:22,181 --> 00:25:23,315
I know what
it's been like.

576
00:25:23,349 --> 00:25:24,516
Just don't try

577
00:25:24,550 --> 00:25:26,218
and pretend like...

578
00:25:26,252 --> 00:25:30,222
like... you don't
really want this.

579
00:25:30,256 --> 00:25:32,290
I've never thought
that I would be able

580
00:25:32,325 --> 00:25:35,527
to run for something like this
and actually have a shot.

581
00:25:35,561 --> 00:25:39,598
And to have parents
and a family--

582
00:25:39,632 --> 00:25:43,368
it's truly a gift.

583
00:25:43,402 --> 00:25:45,437
More like a hand-me-down...
from me.

584
00:25:45,471 --> 00:25:48,406
Look, I know
that this is your life...

585
00:25:48,441 --> 00:25:50,242
Yes, it is.

586
00:25:50,276 --> 00:25:53,545
And just remember,
it's not you they care about.

587
00:25:53,579 --> 00:25:54,613
Sutton...

588
00:25:54,647 --> 00:25:56,281
Have fun at the dance.

589
00:26:00,155 --> 00:26:02,022
SUTTON: I'm working my butt off
here in L.A.,

590
00:26:02,060 --> 00:26:04,488
and Emma is-is totally
out of control.

591
00:26:04,710 --> 00:26:06,477
She's messing up my plan.

592
00:26:06,512 --> 00:26:09,380
She is stealing my life,
one yearbook page at a time.

593
00:26:09,415 --> 00:26:10,815
She's really trying.

594
00:26:10,849 --> 00:26:12,717
Of course. No, you're right.

595
00:26:12,751 --> 00:26:15,486
I-I'm... I'm sorry. I...

596
00:26:16,855 --> 00:26:19,791
I'm just...
I'm really missing you.

597
00:26:19,825 --> 00:26:23,528
I would give anything
to be on the back of your bike,

598
00:26:23,562 --> 00:26:26,431
wrapping my arms around you.

599
00:26:26,465 --> 00:26:27,799
And what about Homecoming?

600
00:26:27,833 --> 00:26:31,502
We'd meet up after,
go for a ride.

601
00:26:31,537 --> 00:26:32,737
Or I could come with you.

602
00:26:32,771 --> 00:26:34,472
Please. You wouldn't
be caught dead

603
00:26:34,506 --> 00:26:35,506
at a high school dance.

604
00:26:35,541 --> 00:26:36,741
Maybe I'd be willing

605
00:26:36,775 --> 00:26:38,409
to make an exception.

606
00:26:38,444 --> 00:26:40,645
Well, I'm stuck in L.A.

607
00:26:40,679 --> 00:26:43,481
So, don't have to worry
about that.

608
00:26:43,515 --> 00:26:46,551
But if you were here...

609
00:26:49,555 --> 00:26:53,357
You still don't want anyone
to know about us?

610
00:26:53,392 --> 00:26:56,694
I thought we felt the same way
about this.

611
00:26:56,728 --> 00:26:59,597
You were never planning
on taking us public.

612
00:26:59,631 --> 00:27:01,666
I mean, that's the reality here.

613
00:27:01,700 --> 00:27:04,435
- Ethan...
- No. Stop, all right?

614
00:27:04,470 --> 00:27:06,370
Forget it.

615
00:27:10,409 --> 00:27:12,610
It's all real clear.

616
00:27:15,447 --> 00:27:18,616
(dance music playing,
loud chatter and laughter)

617
00:27:38,704 --> 00:27:40,404
Thanks.

618
00:27:40,439 --> 00:27:41,739
No matter who
you voted for,

619
00:27:41,773 --> 00:27:43,841
Sutton says it's just
important that you voted.

620
00:27:47,613 --> 00:27:49,514
X goes to Sutton Mercer.

621
00:27:49,548 --> 00:27:50,781
What does that get me?

622
00:27:50,816 --> 00:27:53,484
A cupcake... but
not much else.

623
00:27:53,519 --> 00:27:55,353
(laughs)

624
00:27:55,387 --> 00:27:57,488
See you, Derek.

625
00:28:04,796 --> 00:28:06,531
EMMA:
Hey! Hi.

626
00:28:06,565 --> 00:28:08,366
Hey, great game!

627
00:28:09,668 --> 00:28:11,575
Oh, my God, thank
God you're here.

628
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:12,670
Hi.

629
00:28:12,671 --> 00:28:15,373
We thought the queen might be
late for her own coronation.

630
00:28:15,407 --> 00:28:17,341
I feel like I'm on display.

631
00:28:17,376 --> 00:28:18,643
In this game,
that's a good thing.

632
00:28:18,677 --> 00:28:20,444
According
to the latest exit polls,

633
00:28:20,479 --> 00:28:22,613
I'm up by 40 votes.

634
00:28:22,648 --> 00:28:24,682
Oh, well, did you stuff
the ballot box yourself,

635
00:28:24,716 --> 00:28:27,351
or did you have your friends
do it for you?

636
00:28:27,386 --> 00:28:29,353
Game's over, Sutton.

637
00:28:29,388 --> 00:28:32,623
The only thing you're going
<i>repeat</i> is remedial French...

638
00:28:32,658 --> 00:28:35,493
in summer school.

639
00:28:35,527 --> 00:28:37,395
I can't wait to see her face
when Sutton wins.

640
00:28:37,429 --> 00:28:38,596
- It's going to be epic.
- Mm-hmm.

641
00:28:38,630 --> 00:28:42,400
Mads, what's your dad
doing here?

642
00:28:42,434 --> 00:28:44,702
Chaperone. He lives
for this stuff.

643
00:28:44,736 --> 00:28:47,672
Gets to work the floor,
relive his glory days.

644
00:28:47,706 --> 00:28:49,640
CHAR: Hit on the
single moms.

645
00:28:49,675 --> 00:28:52,710
What? It's true.
He knows my mom's

646
00:28:52,744 --> 00:28:55,479
still married to
my dad, right?

647
00:28:58,684 --> 00:29:01,652
I was tidying up
Sutton's room, and

648
00:29:01,687 --> 00:29:04,622
found something... strange.

649
00:29:07,232 --> 00:29:09,508
Did you know she
could draw, like this?

650
00:29:11,078 --> 00:29:12,344
I had no idea.

651
00:29:13,732 --> 00:29:15,466
Some of these are pretty good.

652
00:29:15,500 --> 00:29:17,301
Maybe we should
encourage her,

653
00:29:17,336 --> 00:29:19,637
see if she wants to take a
class at the college, or...

654
00:29:19,671 --> 00:29:22,340
Yeah. It's a good idea.

655
00:29:22,374 --> 00:29:23,708
I was thinking...

656
00:29:23,742 --> 00:29:25,610
Do you think
one of her biological parents

657
00:29:25,644 --> 00:29:27,712
could have been an artist,
and maybe if we contacted

658
00:29:27,746 --> 00:29:29,480
the adoption agency
and just asked...?

659
00:29:29,514 --> 00:29:31,749
So they can tell us what
they told us 17 years ago--

660
00:29:31,783 --> 00:29:33,718
Sutton's mother was
a troubled young woman,

661
00:29:33,752 --> 00:29:35,753
she didn't even know
who got her pregnant?

662
00:29:35,787 --> 00:29:38,489
Maybe. I'm...

663
00:29:38,523 --> 00:29:41,626
I'm just starting to
think we made a mistake,

664
00:29:41,660 --> 00:29:44,762
telling her she died.

665
00:29:44,796 --> 00:29:47,598
I mean, if I was adopted,

666
00:29:47,633 --> 00:29:49,500
I'd be curious
about my birth mother.

667
00:29:49,534 --> 00:29:50,768
I'd probably want
to meet her.

668
00:29:50,802 --> 00:29:52,770
- It's only natural.
- The woman had severe

669
00:29:52,804 --> 00:29:54,672
emotional problems
and a history of drug abuse.

670
00:29:54,706 --> 00:29:56,774
For all we know,
she probably is dead.

671
00:29:56,808 --> 00:29:59,610
Okay, and even if she's not,
call me overprotective,

672
00:29:59,645 --> 00:30:02,380
but I don't want
to see Sutton get hurt.

673
00:30:04,416 --> 00:30:06,384
I suppose you're right.

00:37:55,516 --> 00:37:57,283
CHAR:
Okay, this isn't

808
00:37:57,317 --> 00:37:59,252
really happening, right?

809
00:37:59,286 --> 00:38:01,254
Okay, Char, I...

810
00:38:01,288 --> 00:38:03,523
know that you're not crazy
about Ethan, but...

811
00:38:03,557 --> 00:38:05,425
he's a really great guy.

812
00:38:05,459 --> 00:38:08,227
To sneak around with, maybe,
but to actually date?

813
00:38:08,262 --> 00:38:10,430
How long has this
been going on?

814
00:38:12,433 --> 00:38:15,368
Almost... a year now.

815
00:38:15,402 --> 00:38:18,471
And you never thought
to tell your best friends?

816
00:38:18,505 --> 00:38:20,506
What is with
all the secrets

817
00:38:20,541 --> 00:38:22,508
around here?
Maddy.

818
00:38:23,577 --> 00:38:25,578
Can I talk to you
for a second?

819
00:38:28,615 --> 00:38:31,451
Yeah?

820
00:38:32,653 --> 00:38:35,321
ALEC:
What is this?

821
00:38:35,355 --> 00:38:36,556
I thought you said

822
00:38:36,590 --> 00:38:38,357
there wasn't
anything between

823
00:38:38,392 --> 00:38:39,559
you and Eduardo.

824
00:38:39,593 --> 00:38:42,395
I... told you,
there's nothing going on, Dad.

825
00:38:42,429 --> 00:38:45,465
That was... we were in the
middle of rehearsing a scene

826
00:38:45,499 --> 00:38:47,366
for the recital...
Maddy, I've got

827
00:38:47,401 --> 00:38:50,503
a pretty good ear for lies;
you want to try again?

828
00:38:51,672 --> 00:38:55,241
All right,
it wasn't a rehearsal.

829
00:38:57,311 --> 00:39:00,379
I kind of threw myself at him.

830
00:39:02,249 --> 00:39:04,450
But he didn't want anything
to do with me, so...

831
00:39:04,485 --> 00:39:07,587
Was he there when I got
home the other morning?

832
00:39:07,621 --> 00:39:10,490
Was he in the house?

833
00:39:10,524 --> 00:39:12,592
Yes, but it's not what
you're thinking. He...

834
00:39:12,626 --> 00:39:15,328
Wait, Dad, where
are you going?

835
00:39:15,362 --> 00:39:19,398
Don't ask questions you
already know the answer to.

836
00:39:24,571 --> 00:39:26,472
(crickets chirping)

837
00:39:37,518 --> 00:39:40,286
You keep doing that,
you'll break it.

838
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:41,621
- Where are you going?
- Out.

839
00:39:45,292 --> 00:39:46,592
(picks up keys)

840
00:39:46,627 --> 00:39:48,461
What if you stayed?

841
00:39:48,495 --> 00:39:50,429
Why should I?

842
00:39:57,471 --> 00:39:59,238
Whoa, hold on, hold on.

843
00:39:59,273 --> 00:40:01,574
Are you sure
about this?

844
00:40:01,608 --> 00:40:05,311
Okay. Never mind,
forget I said that.

845
00:40:20,260 --> 00:40:21,527
(chuckles softly)

846
00:40:38,478 --> 00:40:42,415
(upbeat music playing)

847
00:40:48,622 --> 00:40:50,456
Mr. Rybak.

848
00:40:50,490 --> 00:40:52,558
You expecting someone else?

849
00:40:52,593 --> 00:40:55,528
Listen... I never
laid a hand on Mads.

850
00:40:55,562 --> 00:40:57,530
I know, I know.
You're not stupid.

851
00:40:57,564 --> 00:40:59,565
Actually, that's
not why I'm here.

852
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,201
(knocking)
I don't understand.

853
00:41:02,236 --> 00:41:03,502
Let me get it.

854
00:41:05,472 --> 00:41:07,206
(door opens)

855
00:41:07,241 --> 00:41:10,509
- Maddy, why don't you go home.
- No, Dad.

856
00:41:10,544 --> 00:41:13,246
(whispers):
I've got this.

857
00:41:41,575 --> 00:41:43,576
♪ ♪

858
00:41:55,522 --> 00:41:57,556
Hey.

859
00:42:00,327 --> 00:42:02,194
Hi.

860
00:42:02,229 --> 00:42:03,562
I got your text.

861
00:42:05,232 --> 00:42:07,266
What's going on?

862
00:42:08,468 --> 00:42:10,369
Um...

863
00:42:10,404 --> 00:42:12,371
our birth mother,

864
00:42:12,406 --> 00:42:14,473
Annie Hobbs,

865
00:42:14,508 --> 00:42:17,476
she's from Scottsdale.

866
00:42:17,511 --> 00:42:19,478
I think this is her...

867
00:42:19,513 --> 00:42:22,448
with Ted and Alec.

868
00:42:29,489 --> 00:42:31,257
Martin.

869
00:42:33,527 --> 00:42:35,394
Do not let this girl

870
00:42:35,429 --> 00:42:37,430
anywhere near
Ms. Hobbs.

871
00:42:37,464 --> 00:42:39,198
- Understood?
- Got it.

872
00:42:39,232 --> 00:42:41,467
And make sure the rest
of the staff knows as well.

873
00:42:41,501 --> 00:42:43,402
Mm-hmm.

874
00:42:49,443 --> 00:42:51,577
