"Previously on One Tree Hill:" "I'm the one who did it." "I broke her windshield." "When I got off the bus, I saw Haley kissing some guy." "He was kind of scrawny, had a guitar case, sort of pelty hair." "I took the test." "We'll know in a couple of days." "Thank you." "I'm tired of running, Peyton." "Come with me." "Let's bring Jenny back home." "Something happened tonight." "I asked her to marry me." "You and I are the only ones who know the truth about Jules." "And I'm willing to keep it a secret." "What do you want from me?" "I'm sure we can work something out." "I think the Latin book's upside down." "Like I could read it if it was right-side up." "How long is it gonna take you to get these fliers done?" "Just gotta download the pics to my computer." "You got a slogan in mind?" "Yeah. "Brooke Davis for President."" "Short enough for even the stoners to remember." "You gonna leave Keith and Jules alone?" "I'm thinking about it." "Keith's happy for once." "He's getting married." "Don't screw that up." "They're getting married?" "I'll tell you what." "I'll leave them alone... if you give me a chance to prove I can be a good father." "How you gonna do that?" "I get a lobotomy?" "No." "You move in with me." "Haley, we seriously have to hide the matches from your pyro sister." "Be grateful it's just candles." "When we were kids, I set fire to our bunk beds." "Where is Haley, and does she know that you're wearing her shirt?" "At school." "And no." "I needed a beach cover-up." "I borrowed some cash for beer." "I hope you don't mind." "And she left the computer on." "Love having you, Taylor." "Come visit anytime." "Hey, Luke." "I'm taking a poll for the next issue of the paper." "What is your biggest concern for the upcoming student government election?" "Having to answer polls." "If it isn't my favorite two voters in the same place." "You two can be the first to know I'm running for president." "Do I have your support?" "Do I have any choice?" "Let me think about that." "No." "If you're doing your newspaper gig, Mighty Mouth..." "I'll give you an exclusive on my campaign." "Yeah." "We should set that up." "Good." "Have you guys seen Haley?" "I think she's tutoring." "You okay?" "I gotta go." "AII right." "No way." "Is that Jake?" "What?" "Hey." "When did you get back?" "A couple days ago." "How's Jenny?" "Hey." "Hi." "She's great." "She's getting bigger every day." "You're getting scrawny." "Better hit that weight-room before camp." "Will you still be here then?" "Yeah." "I'm back for good now." "I've got some messes to clean up." "I gotta get a lawyer to see if I can keep Nicki away." "But I'm done running." "Good." "We need you here." "Thanks." "Jake, I'm so glad you came back." "You can still vote here, right?" "You good?" "Yes." "Thank you for calling him." "You're a good friend, Luke." "Hey." "I heard you were out of town." "Fill me in on all the dirt." "I think you're the only one who has any." "I have to ask you something." "Yeah." "Did you kiss Chris?" "How did you know about that?" "That is seriously not important." "It was like a goodbye kiss." "With tongue?" "Haley, what's going on with you?" "You know how ugly everything got with me and Brooke and Lucas." "There were no wedding rings in that scenario." "Look, he just." "He just kissed me." "And I let him." "And it was a really stupid thing to do." "But... it didn't mean anything, you know." "A kiss always means something." "I never thought I'd see you darken my door again, Jaglieski." "Yeah, I wasn't so sure myself, Coach." "Where the hell have you been, son?" "Just looking for a safe place in an unsafe world." "Did you find it?" "I don't think it exists." "So I figured I'd just have to create it myself." "How's your game?" "I haven't had much cause to use it." "How about your grades?" "I've been working a lot of hours just to keep me and Jenny afloat." "So, I sort of stopped going to school." "That's a damn fool plan." "Jenny deserves a whole lot better than a high-school dropout for a father." "I know." "That's why I'm here." "I was hoping that you could speak to Principal Turner on my behalf because... he wasn't really happy the last time I talked to him." "You gonna disappear again?" "I don't plan on it, Coach." "We've got a faculty meeting tonight." "I'll corner Turner and see what I can do." "I appreciate that." "About that safe place you're building." "Don't do it alone." "There's a lot of people here ready to help." "You talk to your folks lately?" "Yeah, actually my mom sent me an e-mail... said Daddy's dragging them all over Wisconsin... looking for, like, the Gouda Museum or something." "What about Chris?" "Did you go through my e-mails?" "What is this, Haley?" "Nothing." "I sent him one e-mail to say good luck on your music." "It looks like more than one e-mail to me." "Taylor must've sent these on my account because...." "Look at the dates." "They all start after she got here." "And this one was sent when I was at the cafe." "So you didn't kiss Chris?" "Taylor is just stirring up trouble." "Like always." "Okay." "I'm gonna tell her to leave then." "That cool with you?" "Yeah." "She should go." "Good afternoon, folks." "Welcome to the first student government information session." "I'm gonna pass out these sign-up sheets for the various offices... and once you fill these out, we'll talk about scheduling." "Hi." "Erica Marsh." "I never pegged Brooke Davis for student government." "I am captain of the cheerleading squad and a former homecoming queen." "It can't be that different?" "Actually, government is a lot more than a just a popularity contest." "Everybody in this room has at least a 3.8 GPA and a ton of outside interests." "Take me." "I'm president of the National Honor Society... head of the French Club, and co-chair of Tree Hill Big Sisters." "Wow." "You do all of that and yet you still have time to talk to us little people." "Maybe I can help you, Brooke." "Have you thought about running for secretary?" "Nobody serious ever wants that job." "Actually, I'm running for president." "President?" "I've been president since 7th grade." "Really?" "What was your name again?" "Erica Marsh." "No, doesn't ring a bell." "Don't worry." "It will." "Game on, Vivica." "Erica." "Whatever." "Hey." "Hey." "You're a lifesaver." "Deb's out of town, and I'm backed up on deliveries." "Okay." "No problem." "I'll pack up the car." "But first." "The test results came." "I don't have HCM." "Keith's okay, too." "Thank God." "I don't think I could take it if anything were wrong with you." "I know." "We should celebrate." "Anything you want." "I want to move in with Dan." "Right." "And I want to drive metal spikes into my eyes." "Look, I know it sounds crazy, okay." "But college is gonna start in a few years" "You're serious?" "Yeah." "I want to move in with Dan." "Over my dead body." "What's this really about, Lucas?" "What's going on?" "Nothing." "I know this comes as a surprise to you, and I'm sorry, Mom... but it's what I want, okay?" "You're late." "Where the hell were you?" "I stopped by to check on Jules." "You should have called." "Your office." "Right now." "Surprise." "Congratulations, big brother." "I hope Jules makes you as happy as Deb has made me." "How did you know?" "Good news travels fast in this town." "A toast." "To Keith and to Jules." "Two people lucky enough to find each other." "And I hope your lives together are filled with many more surprises." "This is just about the number of people we're inviting to the wedding, so...." "What are you talking about?" "You know, we're just gonna do something small." "Out of the question." "You deserve a big blowout." "No expense spared." "It's my gift." "I wanna give you a day you'll remember for the rest of your life." "Besides, it's not for you." "It's for Jules." "Every woman deserves to be a queen for the day." "What the hell are you doing with Lucas?" "So he told you?" "Only he's moving in with you." "Not the real reason why." "He wants to get to know his father." "That's crap, and we both know it." "You're manipulating him somehow." "I'm letting him make a choice." "He's a big boy, Karen." "He needs something more than just his mommy." "Don't you dare walk away from me." "We are nowhere near finished...." "What's going on?" "It's a little party to celebrate Keith's engagement." "Champagne?" "Hey." "Hey." "So, Nathan found out that I kissed Chris." "You told him?" "No." "My idiot sister has been e-mailing Chris under my screen name... because the drama in her own life isn't enough." "And Nathan found the e-mails." "How'd he take it?" "I just told him Taylor made it all up." "So you lied to him again?" "Yeah." "And I felt awful about it." "What's the point of telling Nathan?" "Chris is out of my life, okay?" "Nathan would feel worse if he knew the truth." "What is the truth?" "That Chris and I are connected through music." "He understands that part of me in a way that Nathan doesn't." "Okay, Haley, if Chris were in town would you be into him?" "Because, I mean, you kissed him." "I know I kissed him, and it was a mistake." "This whole connection is strictly music?" "That's all it is." "I love Nathan." "So I guess congratulations are in order." "I'm sorry about this morning." "That's not how I wanted you to find out." "Why didn't you just tell me?" "You know, for as long as I can remember, Karen..." "I wanted to be with you." "And then I proposed." "Keith." "No, really." "It's okay." "When you turned me down..." "I thought I'd never have any love in my life." "But now I've found the love of my life." "Jules is a lucky woman." "I guess I didn't tell you because I needed to say this first." "I'm glad I loved you all those years, you know, even if it didn't work out." "My heart knew what it wanted." "So I was ready when Jules came along." "Did you guys set a date yet?" "No." "It'll be soon, though." "Lucas has already agreed to be my best man." "Really?" "I didn't know." "We haven't talked about anything but Dan since Lucas asked to move in with him." "Hang on, what?" "There's something going on that he's not telling me." "Hey." "Hey." "Like my new campaign posters?" "I have never seen you looking so" "Presidential?" "Funereal." "Funny word coming from you, Miss Happy-Goofy-Grin-Queen." "What's going on with you and Jake?" "I don't know." "Stop." "We're playing it by ear." "Is that all you're playing?" "Fine." "Don't tell us." "I'll just keep my fingers crossed and expect juicy details later." "Who did that?" "ln our great democracy, anyone can run for president." "But you deserve a leader you can trust." "I have evidence that Brooke Davis stuffed the ballot box... to win homecoming queen." "I knocked it over by accident." "I was just putting the ballots back in." "And that might not be all she stuffs." "Please." "I haven't stuffed since puberty." "I can't believe that little bitch went negative." "I can't believe she beat you to it." "This election, choose honesty." "Vote for me, Erica Marsh." "Little frosty in here today, no?" "You here to eat or give a weather report?" "Okay, what's going on?" "I thought Lucas took the HCM test and was fine." "Yeah, but now he wants to move in with Dan." "I haven't been able to get him to budge, so I'm gonna get Keith to try." "Keith?" "Who's getting married to Jules." "Wow, that's great." "Is it?" "I mean, how well does he know this girl?" "What if he's just blinded by a pretty face and a hot body?" "Some would say the same about you." "You can't let Erica get away with smearing you like that." "You leave this unanswered, it becomes the truth." "So, what do you think I should do about Erica's ads?" "Are they true?" "Some of them." "Don't deny it." "Politicians always get caught when they lie." "That's brilliant, genius." "Stick to slinging hash." "Look, people like you, Brooke." "Just be who you are." "Okay, it's official." "Michelle Branch and Jessica Harp are playing at Tric tomorrow." "No way." "Yes." "That's awesome." "That will be perfect for my campaign launch party." "Yeah." "Wait." "What?" "Hey." "Can you zip me up, brother?" "You're busted, Taylor." "I'll take that for a no." "Where the hell have you been?" "I met some people at the beach and we partied all night." "What's your problem?" "I know you pretended to be Haley and e-mailed Chris." "What kind of a sister does something that twisted?" "The kind who's hoping the baby of the family doesn't screw up like she did." "Right." "Is that why you made up all that stuff about a kiss?" "You think I made it up?" "I talked to Haley." "There was no kiss." "Make whatever phone calls you need to find a place to crash." "You're out of here." "I was beginning to think you'd skipped town and left all your stuff." "What do you care if I haven't been around?" "You're kicking me out." "Drop the attitude, Tay." "You know you brought this on yourself." "You've pulled a lot of crap over the years." "But e-mailing Chris as me...." "I can't believe you'd be such a conniving little bitch." "Hey." "You're the bitch who's kissing a guy who isn't your husband." "You need a scapegoat." "Let Nathan think that this is all on me." "But you and I both know the kiss happened." "Hey." "Have a bear claw, brother." "We're celebrating." "I'm leaving tonight." "Upgrade." "I'm Dan." "And I'm out of your league." "Wanna bet?" "What are you doing here?" "That's the last of your stuff." "I need to make some room." "Lucas is moving in." "Lucas is moving in with you?" "Yeah." "Guess I'm not the devil after all." "Enjoy your breakfast." "Are you implying that I cheat for my 4.0?" "Absolutely not." "Just like you weren't implying that I have a double-digit I.Q." "Hey." "Hey, Nate." "What's going on, man?" "It's true you're moving in with Dan?" "Yeah." "Great." "What happened to "He can't make me a substitute Nathan"?" "It's more complicated than that." "Whatever, man." "Lucas." "Hey." "I've to write a killer platform speech if I'm gonna win this election..." "but I have no idea where to start." "Why don't you ask Felix?" "Because Whitey told us to read speeches by world leaders... then he mentioned this Charles de Gaulle guy who..." "I thought was that exchange student that's always smelling his fingers in class." "So obviously this is your area of expertise and not mine." "Will you help me?" "How about tonight right before Tric?" "You're the best, Lucas." "Thank you." "Maybe I should do a contest." "You know, vote for me and win a date... or offer a makeover." "You don't need a gimmick, Brooke." "Just... tell me why you want to be president." "I am who I am." "No excuses." "But I'd like people to know there's a lot more to me than just some party girl." "This is from a speech by John F. Kennedy." "I think it could work for you." "This is all about courage." "Nobody's gonna believe this coming from me." "I would." "Hey." "Hey." "I brought you some campaign buttons." "Wow." "Thanks, Felix." "These look great." "You wanted me to pick you up before Tric." "Is it that late already?" "I totally lost track of time." "We're done anyway." "Everything you need to say is already in your heart." "We're gonna go out to Tric." "You gonna be here when we get back?" "No, my ride's coming tonight." "Where are you gonna go?" "I met some guy who's starting a surf shop down in the Keys." "I'll crash there for a while." "And then what?" "I don't think that far ahead." "Maybe you should." "Like, having a plan has worked so well for you." "Listen, it's not much but here." "It's all I've got." "I want you to have it." "Thanks." "But this won't make you feel any less guilty about Chris." "Are you kidding me?" "D.J. Bobo?" "Where are the X-ecutioners or the Chemical Brothers or anything?" "Peyton." "The D.J. has got this under control, okay." "The night's gonna be great." "Come on." "Hey." "Hey." "Welcome back." "Where's Nathan?" "Karen needed help with some boxes." "I'll go help him out." "I've been wanting to say hi to Karen, so." "Good to see you." "Hi." "Hi." "Okay, this is gonna sound really weird and groupie, I'm a Michelle Branch fan." "I was wondering if you'd introduce me." "I will introduce you." "Hey, guys." "I'm sorry." "Hey." "I wanted to introduce you to my friend." "Michelle Branch, Jessica Harp, this is Haley." "Haley James?" "Haley James-Scott, actually." "You know what?" "We've heard a lot about you." "I don't think that's possible." "No, our opening act gave you rave reviews." "Didn't you?" "I said she was okay." "So you're the opening act?" "Not for long." "I'll be headlining soon." "So, Haley, Chris played us your duet, and it sounds really great." "You should join him on stage tonight." "Thanks." "I don't think...." "I'm gotta head out, but it was really nice to meet you guys." "Nice to meet you, too." "What the hell are you doing?" "Giving you the biggest break of your life." "You're welcome." "No." "You did not do me any favors, okay?" "I'm busted my ass to get them here." "Yeah, but I sealed the deal." "Why?" "So you could see Haley?" "I know that you kissed her." "Listen, it takes two, Curly, okay?" "She didn't exactly push me away." "You're wasting your time, you know." "She's over you." "Then you've got nothing to worry about." "Hey, you guys." "Thanks a lot for coming out tonight to check out the Wreckers." "We've got a lot of great music coming your way." "And we also have Chris Keller." "What's he doing here?" "I didn't know he was coming, I swear." "You guys still aren't ready for this." "But I'm in a forgiving mood." "This one's for you, Haley." "Have you told Brooke about the windshield?" "I'm working up to it." "Vote for me." "Maybe we should go." "No." "I'm gonna waste that guy." "I thought you weren't coming." "My ride's running late." "Who's the stud?" "Chris." "This evening just got interesting." "Thanks a lot, guys." "You've been acceptable." "The Wreckers are up next." "Looking for an autograph?" "No." "Actually, I was looking to kick your ass." "But then I realized, why bother?" "There's nothing here for you." "Haley sees what you really are." "A pathetic poser." "I just wanted to let you know." "You're wrong." "You're just trying to silence that voice inside your head." "Yeah, you know the one." "It's growing louder every day." "It's saying "We're drifting apart." "I'm losing her."" "Actually, it's saying "Shut this guy up once and for all."" "Okay." "Maybe I'm wrong." "Maybe she does love you." "She does." "What if that's not enough?" "Okay, you guys." "The wait is over." "Please join me in welcoming to Tric..." "Maverick recording artists Michelle Branch and Jessica Harp." "The Wreckers." "Hey, thanks, you guys." "It's so great to be here in Tree Hill." "And vote for Brooke." "Hey." "I have a confession to make." "I'm jealous of Jules." "Every since I had Lucas, before that even... you've been the one person I could count on." "It's gonna be hard to lose that." "Karen... we'll still be in each other's lives." "That'll never change." "I know." "It's just taking some getting used to." "Hey." "You played a really great set." "Yeah, I know." "AII right... good luck." "You want to know about it, don't you?" "The tour, the music, it's all happening for me now." "I could still happen for you, Haley." "It will someday." "Someday's here." "I talked to Michelle." "She wants you on the tour." "What?" "People love the duet." "It's real." "Jessica started off as Michelle's back-up singer." "Look at her now." "The difference between wannabes and successes is grabbing opportunity." "Our tour bus leaves in a couple hours, and you know you should be on it." "You brave enough?" "Now that Taylor's leaving we'll have enough hot water for our own showers." "Haley, what's wrong?" "Michelle Branch likes my voice." "She thinks I could be a singer." "A real one." "Chris said that she wants me on tour." "I'm so far ahead with classes and I'd be back in time for finals." "So says the great Chris." "No, this isn't about him, Nathan." "This is about opportunity." "I have my entire life been the reliable one, and the dependable one." "And I have always done precisely what's expected of me." "Until we got married." "Exactly." "And then I finally did something for me." "Something that I wanted." "And the world didn't end." "And I have that chance again." "If you leave me" "This is not the end for us." "This is my shot to find out if I am good enough to have a life in music." "Or if nights at Tric are all I get." "And this has nothing to do with Chris?" "No." "Absolutely not." "Then why haven't you asked me to come with you?" "Did you kiss him?" "Yes." "I'm sorry." "You have to believe me." "That's not what this is about." "Nathan" "Haley, listen." "If you want to go, you should go." "But if you do... we're done." "Unpack." "I can't." "I said unpack." "No." "Lucas." "If you'd tell me what Dan has said or done, we could fight him together." "No, we can't." "Go back to sleep." "I've got her." "Hey, Mouth." "You're just in time." "I am so buzzed from the reaction to my campaign... that I'm gonna practice my speech." "I'm the one who threw the brick through your car window." "I was drunk and..." "I was angry." "Angry about what?" "Being a little brother to you and everyone else." "I'm not sure we can be friends anymore, Mouth." "Me, neither." "It's too hard." "I thought I knew you." "But I guess it's easier to see what we want... than to look for the truth." "You think you know me, but you don't." "And that means you don't know what I can do." "You see me as someone who's popular and has all the answers." "That's not true." "I know what it's like to search for something more, Haley." "That's why I'm always running." "But then, I've never had a Nathan to come home to." "I may not always know what I'm doing." "But I'll try to make things better." "It's for you." "Come on." "Don't say I never gave you anything." "And when I make a mistake." "Because, face it... we all do." "He left." "And I don't know what to do." "I promise I'll ask for your help." "Haley?" "I'm sorry, Nathan." "She's gone." "I can't do this alone." "But if you'll take a chance on me, we can do great things together." "I promise if you believe in me, I'll find the courage to reach for your every dream." "You got everything you need?" "Yeah." "Listen, thank you for paying for my medication." "I don't want my mom to know, so I need you to keep footing the bill." "Sure." "It'll stay our secret." "But tell me something." "How did you convince her that you didn't have HCM?" "I used Keith's negative-results letter." "Really?" "I wouldn't have pegged you as being so duplicitous." "I guess I'm your son after all." "John F. Kennedy said the courage of life... is a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy." "A man does what he must in spite of personal consequences... in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures." "And that is the basis of all morality." "English"
