"Previously on "The Nine Lives of Chloe King"..." "You have to learn to control your gifts." " Happy pre-birthday." " No singing." "I'm not the singer." "That was your dad's" "Left over 10 years ago." "I'm good." "My mom supposedly was killed in a mugging that went bad, but parts of it just never made sense to me." "Now I'm here and I'm staying till I figure it out." "I know this isn't the life you were expecting." "It's not all bad." "The whole world is coming for you." "Then let it come." "Hi." "Can I help you find anything?" "Just looking." "You have so many cute things." "Is this your store?" "No, I just work here." "I love this." "I know, right?" "I totally covet it." "Then you should get it." "It's perfect for you." "Not exactly my style and no place to wear it, so..." "How old are you?" "16." "Hmm, you seem older." "Nope, just 16." "I remember 16-- so many changes." "Chemistry?" "Yeah." "You're not really supposed to be back there." "We're actually getting ready to close." "And I still have so many questions." "You weren't born here, were you, Chloe?" "How do you know my name?" "Everybody knows who you are." "We just flew 6,000 miles to meet you." "Well, you've met me." "Now I think you should go." "Nikki was right-- this would look perfect on you." "♪ Nine Live of Chloe King 1x05 ♪ Girls Night Out Original Air Date on July 12, 2011" "♪ Another night to come alive ♪" "♪ when worlds collide ♪" "♪ I come alive. ♪" "== sync, corrected by elderman ==" "There are parades every day." "I think I danced for 24 hours straight." "I've always wanted to go to Carnival." "Come next year." "You can stay with us." "Our parents would love to meet you." "I wonder if there's a world that exists where my mom would even consider that possibility." "What?" "So is it true that you were raised by humans?" "Just one, and she is about as human as it gets." "There's something so perfect about that." "And no one back home will believe it." "I still can't believe we're actually talking to the Uniter." "your life must be amazing." "If by amazing you mean nonstop training," "Mai history lessons and people trying to kill you, then you're right-- super glamorous." "Well, that is going to change, at least while we're in town." "You need to learn how to party the Mai way." "And maybe we can start with a little dancing." "How's tomorrow for you?" "Chloe, we were supposed to meet a half-hour ago." "Look." "Sorry, I figured you all have Mai-dar or something like that." "Lilah and Nikki, this is Jasmine." " Jasmine" " Lilah and Nikki." "They're from Brazil." "Valentina's daughter?" "Do you all know each other?" "Just by reputation." "You didn't tell anyone you were coming." "And ruin the surprise?" "But it seems we got here just in time." "This girl's been having no fun at all." "Well, we have been dealing with an unwanted visitor or two." "It'll be nice to do something teenagery again." "They're taking me dancing tomorrow night." "Come, please." "It'll be fun." "I wouldn't miss it." "Really?" "Uh, that's great." "I was so ready to beg." "So tomorrow then." "This city won't know what hit them." "Can't wait." " You ready?" " Yeah." " I'll be right there." " Okay." "What are you really doing here?" "The Uniter belongs to all of us." "Why should you have her all to yourself?" "Chloe, are you home?" "Whoa, exploding closet." " Hope no one was hurt." " A few minor casualties." "But it's official-- I truly have nothing to wear." "Clearly." "Going someplace special?" "Just out with Jasmine and a couple of friends." "Any of these friends named Brian or Alek?" "Try Lilah and Nikki." "They're from Brazil." "So no Amy?" "No." "She doesn't really know anyone and I didn't want her to feel" "Oh, it's okay." "Not judging, just asking." "And it sounds like fun." "Mom, I was thinking-- not that I like to discourage thinking, but-- midnight just so screams 15." "Ah, and what does 16 sound like these days?" "1:00 has a nice ring to it." "12:30 and we'll see how it goes." "Best mom ever." "I never get tired of hearing that." "That one looks nice." ""Hannah Hannity held on tight as the red and gold cable car started its flight..."" "Aah!" "Don't do that." " Something's wrong." " With who?" "With you and Paul." "You're totally frustrated about something." "No, I'm not." "Everything's-- oh my God, you did not just do that freaky" "I-know-what-people-are- feeling thing on me." "No, I'm just your friend." "And I'm not wrong, am I?" "You know how we went from friends to more than friends?" "Well, sometimes there's a little bit too much friends and not enough more than." "I mean, the only thing that's really changed is the occasional making out." "I just want a little romance, some excitement, a real date, something that-- you know, something that takes planning and maybe a reservation." "We are talking about Paul." "I know." "Maybe you should just tell him." "Which kind of takes the woo out of wooing." "Take it, take it." "Hey." "I just figured out how you beat me at bowling the other night." "Better hand-eye coordination?" "Good guess, but no." "It was the mental game." "90% of bowling is having your head in the right place." "And where was yours?" "Watching you, which pretty much made it impossible to focus on anything else." "Sorry to be such a distraction." "Did that cross the just-friends line?" "Teetering on the edge, but you're good." "So I'm hiking Mount Tam tomorrow." " Any interest?" " If we go early." " I work in the afternoon." " Perfect." " I'll text you in the morning." " Okay." "Bye." "Bye." "We're going hiking." "I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I am totally jealous of your non-kissable boyfriend." " He's not my boyfriend." " Yeah, tell it to someone who hasn't known you since forever." " Come dancing with us tonight." " Me and the Mai?" "You can be our token human." "Please?" "I don't know what those sisters said to you, but I haven't seen you this happy in weeks." "You know how they say things get worse before they get better?" "I think I'm finally getting to the better." "Come in." "You have time to grab some dinner tonight?" "Unfortunately I'm booked." "Close the door." "We need to talk." "That doesn't sound good." "I had to make a few calls, but I got the university to agree to take you back mid-semester." "Why?" "Why would you do that?" "And how about you start with asking me if I agree?" "That would imply that you had a choice." "I should never have agreed to let you take a semester off to begin with." "I'm not going back." "I just got here." "What exactly are you doing here that you can't do there?" "Don't they have girls and gyms back east?" " I'm just working on some stuff, okay?" " No, it's not okay." "Maybe if I thought I saw even the slightest bit of initiative..." "I'm sorry, Brian." "You're just gonna have to trust me on this." "Dad-- this really is for your own good." "You leave on Monday."

"So tonight there's no school, no job, no boring Mai history lessons." "Tonight you get to be primal." "I'm not exactly sure what that means, but I'm willing to give it a try." "Come on."

"Okay, totally hydrated and ready to go back in." "I'll catch up." "I need to find out what trouble Nikki is getting into." "Okay." "What do you think?" "She's young and impressionable." "That should make things easier, but we need to get her alone." "You didn't make a mess, did you?" "No more than usual." "Two minutes to spare." "I'm impressed." "Have a good time?" "Oh, the best." "Exhausted." "Going to bed." "Not so fast." "What?" " New dress?" " You like?" "Wish there was a little more of it." "Mom, do not prude out on me." "I'm not." "I just feel like I dozed off and missed five to 10 years of your life." "Are those my shoes?" "In my defense, they match perfectly." "Where exactly were you?" "Dancing." "Swerve-- it's a club on Folsom." "So you went clubbing?" "And you assume that was covered under the broadly-defined "Just out"?" "I was with Jasmine and her friends, like I said." "It was fine." "We had a good time." "Nothing happened." "But I really am tired, so if it's okay, I'm gonna crash." "Crash away." "You really do look beautiful." "Thanks." " 'Night." " 'Night." "Does "Hannah Hannity Held on Tight"" "mean anything to you?" "Uh, yes." "Hang on." "Give me a minute." ""As the red and gold cable car started its flight."" "Where in the world did that come from?" "It just popped into my head." "What is it?" "Well, it's from those stories you and your dad made up together" ""Hannah Hannity and Her Magic Cable Car."" "Dad made it up?" "God, you couldn't have been more than three or four." "He wrote them." "You drew the pictures." "And the two of you would read them together every night before you went to bed." "I can't believe you don't remember." "Neither can I." "It was a long time ago." "'Night." "Not that long." "Okay, I am seriously starting to take this personally." "I have to be included in all regularly-scheduled adventures from now on." "It was girls' night out." "With emissaries from a vicious and warlike pride of rival Mai." "Seriously, where do you come up with this?" "I had to piece it together from what Amy told me, which, oddly for Amy, was not a lot." "Well, then maybe you should have come." "I know." "That's what I've been saying." "I meant then maybe you should go, you know, dancing with Amy." "She just went dancing." "And what does that have to do with anything?" "Okay, huge, giant cone of silence." "Sealed and locked." "You've got to step it up." "Really trying, but still not following." "With Amy-- get out a little more, do a little more." "We've been kind of busy with other things." "Paul, just making out every day after school is not really a solid basis for a relationship." " She said that?" " You're a couple." "You've got to take it to the next level." "She needs a little wooing." "Uh, I think I'm on the wrong side." "I think I am too." "You're leaving?" "When?" "Monday." "I'm sorry to just drop it on you like this." "It's not your fault." "I just" "I know." "I had to cancel this morning to take care of some stuff, but I wanted to tell you in person." " What happened?" " With my dad?" "Who knows?" "Do you think he found out you're looking into your mom's death?" "Maybe, but I don't know how." "I honestly don't know what to do." "I've accomplished nothing." "Too many distractions." "No no, not too many." "Just the right amount." "If there's anything I can do-- look something up, find information..." "I don't know what else there is to find." "I've gone to all the banks my dad uses, everywhere I could think of, but" "I don't want to talk about this." "We need a proper going-away dinner-- just good memories." " Tomorrow night?" " Tomorrow night." "I'll meet you at the bookstore around 7:00." " Maybe we'll get some Italian." " Sounds perfect." "Okay, so I'll see you then." "Are you okay to get home?" "Yeah yeah, I'm good." "Don't do that!" "Sorry." "Problem?" "It's-- it's complicated." "Nothing in life should ever be that complicated." "Welcome to my life." " Get on." " Yeah, I don't think so." "You, my little kitten, need to learn how to relax." "Don't worry." "We won't bite." "♪ You wanna call the shots, you wanna talk the talk... ♪" "Wow" "♪ you want to ask for luck and never lose your spot ♪" "♪ you're going all the way, what a daily chore ♪" "♪ you've got to walk the walk, you've never walked before ♪" "♪ you want all the cake and push it in your mouth ♪" "♪ it's gonna choke your throat, you'd better spit it out ♪" "♪ you wanna play again and say it's all for love, yeah. ♪" "I gotta go." "The perfect brother's in town with the perfect wife and perfect kids." "The perfect mother is not going to be happy when the other, very imperfect son is an hour late." "This is where you say something like" ""You're perfect to me."" "Sorry." "Say hi to your brother." "So maybe tomorrow night?" "Your dads are going out, right?" "I've got a lot of studying." "That's too bad." "I kind of had something special planned." "Really?" "But if you're busy" "I'm not... busy." "What is it?" "Don't tell me." " Tell me." " I gotta go." "Paul, honestly, you really are pretty perfect." "A Martini." "You got it." "You feel better, right?" "It's amazing how few problems you have at 1000mph." "But if my mom finds out, the Order won't need an assassin." "The rest of my lives will be gone just like that." " She doesn't know about--?" " No." "It's very weird lying to her." "I wish you had appeared in Sao Paulo first." "We would have been ready for you, taught you to enjoy who you are, embrace it." "Valentina is doing that." "At least she's trying." "Not in the same way." "The Uniter should have no fear, particularly of humans." "The one thing Valentina hasn't taught you about them-- they're inferior to you in every way." "Are you serious?" "Is that what you really believe?" "You'll come to find out it's true." "You have so much potential, Chloe." "So thanks again for the ride." "It definitely cleared my head." "Come to Sao Paulo with us." "Come and see how much better life can be with a truly powerful pride." "I don't really speak Portuguese, so probably not the best option." "We were sent here to bring you home with us." "Well, tell them you asked and I said no." "What's she doing?" "Enjoying herself." "But he's not Mai." "Not, it's definitely human." "Rumor has it you already killed one yourself, so don't be so quick to judge." "Sorry, it slipped." "What's the matter with you?" "So disappointing." "She can't really be the Uniter." "There's only one way to find out for sure." "She was going to kiss that guy." "She could have killed him." "They probably were doing it just to see how you'd react." "If they were, I don't think that was the reaction they were hoping for." "I knew those girls were bad news." "I mean, who visits another pride and doesn't announce themselves?" "No one?" "Exactly." "I talked to my mom." "She said the Sao Paulo Pride has been getting a lot more aggressive." "They've severed ties with neighboring prides." "Vicious, warlike pride of rival Mai?" "How does Paul know this and I don't?" "I put out an alert." "As soon as we find them, they'll be on the next plane home." "How can they just hate all humans?" "That's ridiculous." "Mai have been hunted and killed for thousands of years." "Sometimes it's hard not to hate the people who hate you." "Is that why you don't have many human friends?" "I have friends." "It's not like I don't see you at school every day-- the hot girl who doesn't talk to anybody." "It's hard to get close to people, especially when you can't share so much of who you are." "It's probably a good thing Brian's going back to school." "When I was about 12" "I fell madly in love with this kid on the third floor." "As we got older, the feelings only got stronger." "What happened?" "I started to transform, so there weren't many options." "Where is he now?" "Still on the third floor." "I see him in the elevator sometimes." "Can't you be friends?" "You can't be friends with somebody you're in love with." "I'm sorry." "I don't know what else I could do." "♪ Didn't know just what you were ♪" "♪ when you walked into my door ♪" "♪ if you think of me ♪" "♪ some spotted memory... ♪" "Hey." "Hey." "And miraculously 16 again." "Mm." "I haven't been able to get that image of you in that dress out of my head." " It was just a dress." " Mm-hmm." "This whole single mother thing-- it's not always easy knowing when to be friend and when to be mother." "Did I do something wrong?" "No, it's not that, unless there's something you want to spill." "No spillage." "Continue." "I've just noticed a lot of changes the last few weeks." "You know, some we've talked about, some we haven't-- late nights, going out more, boy issues." "And I just really hope you know that you can talk to me about" "Wait, is this the sex talk?" "Are we actually having another sex talk?" "Well, the others were all theoretical." "I'm just afraid, wondering, curious if maybe we need to have one that's more practical." "You know, if you want to talk about birth control" "Mom, no." "Trust me when I tell you that having sex is not even close to being on my radar right now." "Me, sex-- different parts of the planet." " Really?" " Really." "And if it makes you feel any better, the only remote possible candidate is heading back to college on Monday." "So much for the well-publicized statement that you're just friends." "Mom, the point-- no sex, no nothing to worry about." "How long were you in your room thinking about this?" "An hour, maybe four." "I see you have some serious aggression issues." "I'll take that as a compliment." "Are you all packed?" "I'm not going." "Damn it, Brian, it's not an option." "I want to come work for you." "Maybe when you're done with school." "You said you wanted to see some initiative." "Well, this is how I'm doing it." "You dropped out." "I've heard this story, like, a million times." "And I get it." "We're different people." "So here's my proposal:" "Just give me three months." "If I can't handle it, if I screw up, if I'm an embarrassment to the fine Rezza name in any way, then I'm out of here, no complaints, and I won't be back until I have a diploma in hand," "promise." "You know, I'm not quite as charming a boss as I am a father." "I think I can handle it." "I've had years of practice already." "Three months." "Hey." "You want to get changed and go a couple rounds?" "I can't." "I gotta go meet someone, give them the good news." "Jasmine's right." "I should break it off cleanly" "Brian problem solved." "Why?" "You'd be the poster couple for long-distance dating." "No chance of kissing, no problem to solve." "But is that fair to him?" "I'm just saying keep your options open." "So you totally put Paul up to this whole night-to-remember thing, didn't you?" "Yeah, I might have given him just the smallest of hints." "I was kind of hoping you would." "Have a good time with Brian tonight." "You too." "Mwah." "You're so funny." "Brian." " Hi, Chloe." " You're so lucky." "I'd kill for a boyfriend like Brian." "Hey" "You look comfortable." "I met your friends." "They're friendly." "Among other things." "Well, thanks for keeping me company and the invitation to Carnival." "I guess maybe I'll see you the next time you're in town." " You're not leaving, are you?" " Chloe and I actually have plans." "Well, maybe we'll tag along." "We'd love to get to know him better." "I don't mean to be rude, but we have a lot to talk about" " Actually we really don't." " Actually we really do." " I just" " Brian, look," "I think we should just skip this going-out-to-dinner step." "There's really no point." "I mean, we're not dating and it's pretty clear that we never will." " Can I get a word in?" " I'm just trying to be honest." "I know how this is gonna go." "We're gonna promise to call and email each other, but we both know it's never gonna happen." "The truth is, we're probably never gonna talk to each other again." "Are you serious?" "Is that what you think?" "Look, it's your last night in town." "You should go out and have a good time." "This just seems like a better way to end it." "Sounds like you got it all figured out." "I'll see you around, Chloe." "Well, you don't like killing them, but you don't mind breaking their hearts-- almost as much fun to watch." "He has nothing to do with this." "You're a little more ruthless than I thought." "You'd be surprised." "The true Uniter would understand that humans are worthless." "Fine, let's say I'm not the Uniter and you can scamper home and we'll just forget we ever met each other." "We've got strict orders to bring you back with us." "If you really are the Uniter, which I'm beginning to seriously doubt." "You'll just have to take our word for it." "You are such a party crasher." "Can't you tell when you're not wanted?" "We're out of here." "Chloe's under the protection of Valentina." "Come on." "What's taking you so long?" "Almost ready." "I don't know what Chloe said to you, but I wasn't complaining at all." "I love all our time together." "I just need a night like this every once in a while, that's all." "Fantastic." "Okay." "Oh my God." "Oh my God." "Oh my God!" "What are you doing?" "Taking it to the next level." "Get out." "What's wrong?" "Chloe said that" "Just go." "Amy, can't really talk right now, but how's it going?" "Disaster of monumental proportions." "I'm so sorry, but I really gotta go." "Run!" "Come on." "It's you they want." "Just go." "First blood's mine." "Enjoy it." "We had hoped you'd come willingly, that you'd understand how much we have to offer." "Something got lost in the translation." "You're coming with us, after I prove that you really are the Uniter." " Aw, you broke a nail?" " I hate it when that happens." "Chloe, quick!" "Please, we shouldn't be fighting each other." "Fighting is what makes us strong." "Nikki!" " She's dead." " No!" "No!" "What have you done?" "She did this to herself." "You will pay." "I swear by Bastet, you will both pay." "I thought the Uniter was supposed to bring peace." "Chloe, you have to understand, whoever controls the Uniter controls the fate of the Mai." "No one controls me." "Hey." "I didn't know if you'd come or not." "Neither did I." "Please sit." "I got you a double-shot latte." "Of course that was a while ago." "Look, you don't have to forgive me, but I just couldn't let last night be your last memory of me." "Somehow I got it in my head that the easiest thing to do, the thing that would hurt the least, was just to make a clean break..." "Say goodbye, walk away like it never happened." "And I don't know if we really will ever talk again, but I do want you to know that I care about you and I love spending time with you and that I'm" "I'm really gonna miss you." "There." "I think that's everything." "Well, that's good to know." " Except there's only one problem." " What's that?" "I'm not leaving." "And you just let me ramble on endlessly?" "Come on, you kind of deserved it." "So does this mean you forgive me?" "Most definitely." "I gotta say, last night was almost worth it to hear the apology this morning." "So you were really gonna miss me?" "Are you really gonna make me say it again?" "Yes." "I really was gonna miss you." "Chloe, even when I was leaving," "I was never leaving you." "How long ago did you order this?" "Well, I have been waiting a while." "So how did your dinner with Brian go last night?" "Not as well as my breakfast." "That was totally not meant to sound the way it did." "Dinner kind of got canceled and we ended up getting coffee this morning instead." "He's not leaving." "She said, barely able to contain her smile." "You know how kung pao chicken always does that to me." " Uh-huh." " And we're just friends." "Chloe, nobody believes you." "Oh, I almost forgot-- you know that book you and your dad made?" "I found it in a box in the attic." "I thought you might enjoy seeing it again." "You two were always so happy curled up together, reading." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
