"The 15-hour flight?" "That was you?" "That was me." "Thank you, jack, but I've got this covered." "I figured, principal's office," "A boys needs a parent or a guardian." "Parents being dead--sorry, chuck--i'm the closest thing," "So what seems to be the problem?" "I found charles smoking marijuana on school property" "It was hash, actually." "I find it gives a softer high." "Right." "The evidence seems questionable." "Would you stop?" "I think we can all agree" "That charles has been through an ordeal." "He's clearly out of his right mind" "And can't be held responsible for his actions." "It's temporary insanity." "Headmistress," "No court of law could find him guilty of a crime." "How can we?" "Mr. Bass has been through a lot." "Do you promise me" "That nothing like this will ever happen again?" "Pop quiz--what do you get when you cross chuck bass," "A billion dollars and bart cold in the ground?" "For you, headmistress..." "Anything." "Free fall" "Everyone..." "It has been a pleasure." "So what kind of suspension are we looking at?" "Hey, dan." "Morning, jen." "Okay." "What's with the cold front?" "Nothing." "Eat your breakfast." "Dad doesn't want me dating serena." "Wait." "What?" "You guys are back together?" "How did I not ow this?" "I'd rather we didn't discuss this right now." "Dad, serena's, like, the best thing" "That's ever happened to dan." "I mean, she's smart," "She's funny, and she's, like," "Nine levels hotter than him." "Thank you." "But she's right" "Come on." "Get onboard." "Dan, serena." "Dan, serena." "Whoo!" "Okay." "Dad is not into cheering." "Am I really supposed to pretend like this has nothing to do" "With what happened between you and lily before" "Christmas?" "Wait." "What happened with him and lily" "What happened between you and lily?" "It's none of your business." "Oh, so you can tell me not to date serena," "But I can't say anything about you and" "Lily?" "Him and lily what?" "Somebody, please" "I think you need to leave for school." "Oh, you're not gonna walk me today?" "I'm heartbroken." "Okay, dad." "Seriously?" "You're gonna be late." "No, I'm not." "Yes, I am." "Dan, wait up." "Nelly has put in a full year of loyal service." "She should be allowed to leave without reprisals." "For example, people breaking into her locker" "And smashing her glasses." "I see." "Rebuttal?" "First, there has been a long tradition" "Of newer members being subjected to more..." "Attention," "Some of the things I had to do?" "Disgusting." "Oh, I remember." "I made you do them." "But more importantly, once people find out you can quit," "The girls at the steps will be finished." "Come on, blair." "What's your decision?" "Tonight I'm hosting the selection committee" "Of the colony club." "You're getting into the colony club?" "They never take girls from high school." "I know." "I was surprised, too." "That's not entirely true." "The point is, enough of this high school nonsense." "Nelly or no nelly, who cares?" "I have enough going on already." "God!" "Blair's leaving us behind." "It's like the end of an era." "We're more than any one member," "And the only way nelly is leaving is in a body bag." "God, p., tone down the crazy." "When I left for argentina, my mom acted like she and your dad" "Were riding off into the sunset together," "Then three hours later, he tells you it's over." "We were so happy for ourselves." "We--we never asked what happened between them." "And so--so what do we do?" "I don't know, but we have to do something, dan." "I need to talk to you." "Yeah, I'm" " I'll see you later." "Have you seen chuck today?" "No." "Why?" "Did he come home last night?" "No, blair, I don't know." "What's wrong?" "Yesterday queller caught him smoking hash at school." "There was a meeting," "And to say it went badly would be an understatentnt." "I'm worried." "Blair, it's chuck." "He's somewhere blowing off steam." "It's what he does." "He'll show up in a couple days" "Minus a few million brain cells and some liver tissue." "That's true." "He always disappeared." "Marrakech, prague." "And he always came back," "Tie perfectly knotted." "But this time," "When I looked in his eyes..." "I couldn't see him anymore." "You're really worried." "Okay, um, okay." "Uh, just give it till tonight," "And if he hasn't shown up, we'll help you." "I gotta get to class." "I'm sorry." "Dorota, is everything ready for the colony ladies?" "No, not yet." "I have somewhere to go first." "Ow." "Watch it!" "Sorry." "Oh, my god." "They've got our table." "Here they come." "Just let me do the talking." "I think I'm gonna be sick." "Yeah, try not to do that." "Isabel's gonna count to three." "If you've not vanished by then, I will not be responsible." "One..." "Actually, I'd grab a table." "They're filling up pretty fast." "Sit anywhere, guys." "The tables belong to everyone." "Two?" "You're gonna pay for this, jenny humphrey." "I promise." "You will pay." "So should I keep counting?" "Oh, shut up, is." "Daddy?" "I need you to call headmistress queller." "There's a girl bullying me." "Hello, chuck." "I thought I'd find you here." "Blair." "Ladies, could you give us a moment?" "I thought you sold this place." "I bought it back last night." "Owner took me to the cleaners," "But some things are worth the price." "You should go home." "Lily, serena, eric" "That is not my home or my family." "Fine." "Go to the palace." "Just get out of here." "Well, that would be rude" "Since I'm throwing a party here tonight." "I just posted it on "gossip girl."" "Maybe you'll grace us wi a aanan." "Chuck, stop." "All this doesn't help." "It isn't you." "Wrong." "Bart may have been a bastard," "But he saw me better than anyone." "I'm simply living up to my potential." "It's time to let go of your fantasies." "I don't believe you." "That's your business." "Now is that it," "Or were you going to tell me you love me again?" "Why did you even come back?" "Dad?" "Dad?" "So what are we looking for again?" "Uh, notes, messages, anything that seems tied to my mom." "I don't--i don't see why I had to come." "He doesn't want me here." "I figure he's less likely to murder me with witnesses." "Yes." "That makes sense." "Oh, my god." "He asked my mom to marry him, and she said no." "That's why he's angry." "Yeah, that's my mom's ring." "She gave it back to him before christmas." "It was a-- it was a good theory, though." "Oh." "£¨BlairµÄ¶ÌÐÅ£©" "It's blair." "She--she needs me." "I have to go." "Call me if you find something." "And what if he tries to kill me?" "South boston adoption agency." "New year, schmoo year." "Nothing ever changes." "The darkest secrets" "Are the ones buried closest to home." "Hello?" "Miss blair, where have you been?" "The colony club ladies will be here." "I just need ten minutes." "What happened?" "Penelope and the girls" "Got their parents to call queller." "They say I'm bullying them." "Wow." "Oh, my god, i--th-that is kind of genius." "She wants me to try to handle it by myself," "Which basically means, roll over and take it." "I don't even understand." "Why won't penelope just let you quit?" "She's probably afraid" "I'll tell people she's sleeping with her dad's junior partner." "I mean, the things I know..." "No." "Penelope would kill me..." "Literally." "Yeah." "We'll see." "How much do you know?" "Dan, if you're here to argue-- what were you looking for in boston?" "I-i know it's not a painter and I know it's not a sculptor," "Or--or whatever story it was you couldn't keep straight." "H-hold on." "How do..." "Uh, did, uh, chuck bass say something to you?" "Chuck ba--what?" "Wh--so wait, y-you're telling me" "That chuck bass knows something about our life," "And I don't know?" "I can't talk to you about this right now." "You know, if it was just your lif I would say fine." "But it's not." "It's--it's mine, and it's serena's." "I think we have a right to know." "I agree, but there are other people involved" "Let me take a wild guess and say lily." "Just give me a day." "There's a right way for all of us to talk" "About this." "Yeah." "Well, we're--we're past that" "Hey, b., is everything okay?" "I came as fast as I could." "Fine." "False alarm." "Wait, what happened?" "Chuck." "He's holed up at victrola" "In some jim morrison downward spiral." "Sai a way." "Luckily, it's not my concern." "Thank you for coming." "Dorota!" "I think my guests from the colony club are here!" "Wait, if chuck is really in trouble," "Then we need to help him." "He doesn't have any brothers and sisters." "We are all he has." "You are all he has." "He doesn't want my help." "Oh, hello." "Please take my jacket." "So that's just it?" "You're gonna abandon him for a bunch of society matrons?" "Those matrons, as you call them, are helping me build a life." "All chuck can do is destroy one." "I'm not abandoning chuck." "I'm just saving myself." "Now if you'll excuse me..." "Hi, ladies." "Glad you could make it." "Come on in." "That's the problem with an open invitation." "You can't keep out the hoi polloi." "What do you know about my dad and lily?" "So the cat's out of the bag." "I-i found some numbers." "My--my dad was supposed to be in boston looking for an artist." "He was, uh..." "Apparently visiting some orphanages." "How dickensian." "Chuck, I need to know this." "You know, the funny thing is," "I was going to keep lily's secret." "You buried the arson story on my dad." "This makes us even." "You're not the first-born humphrey," "So if you were planning on inheriting the family estate," "I'd make other arrangements." "Um..." "That--that-- that's not possible." "I mean, my dad-- lily and her mother kept it a secret," "Gave the kid away." "I imagine your dad just found out." "And now there's only one more person to tell." "Of course, as soon as you do, it's over between you, isn't it?" "Sharing a sibling?" "It's a bit much, even for me." "Spotted-- lonely boy at the victrola," "And Chuck Bass, having a heart to heart" "What or who do they talk about?" "And will serena be the last to know£¿" "I've always felt" "The colony club exemplified the highest ideals of character." "Public service" "I frequently feed the ducks in central park." "And read to blind children." "Impressive." "However, for better or worse," "We are known by the company we keep." "Tell me," "Was that serena van der woodsen who came earlier?" "Yes." "She's an old friend." "I see her quite a bit on page six." "And..." "Quite a bit of her." "Well, when I said she was an old friend," "It was..." "Habit." "I don't" "Can't approve of how she lives her life." "And her mother married bart bass." "The man was all new money and models." "If you ask me, that car hitting him was a mercy killing." "I hear bass junior is a piece of work." "You wouldn't have anything to do with him, would you?" "Well, i..." "Blair, the answer is "no."" "Yes." "I mean, no." "I have to go." "That "piece of work"-- chuck bass--needs me." "And serena and her mother are wonderful, kind people." "Blair..." "Do you know what you're doing?" "I thought I was leaving high school behind." "I guess you never do." "Dorota will get your coats." "Welcome back." "How was thailand?" "I honestly don't remember." "You should come home, chuck." "I think I'll take the view from above." "It was nice having you as my little brother." "£¨JennyµÄ¶ÌÐÅ£©" "Eric, where's little j.?" "I imagine busy cleaning out her locker." "Actually..." "I just got done writing a "gossip girl" post," "Saying how, penelope, for the past six months," "You've been having an affair with your dad's junior partner." "And, hazel--you got drunk" "And hooked up with your cousin..." "Twice." "Oh, my god." "And, isabel..." "Do I even have to say?" "No." "Those things were told to you in confidence!" "No, more like stupidity." "And unless you get your parents to back off" "And you start leaving nelly alone, I hit "send." duh, you win." "I know." "So what are you gonna do about the collegiate party tomorrow?" "What?" "What are you talking about?" "Don't play the innocent." "You wanted queen, you've got it." "Wait." "That's what you think I did all this for?" "Didn't you?" "No." "No, not at all." "You're telling me this was just a good deed?" "Oh, my god." "I'm so bored." "Okay..." "Big miscalculation." "See, I kind of thought, coming back to school," "You did wanna be queen." "Oh, that's not good." "And I was never gonna move past hazel and is," "But I thought maybe if there was a new regime-- wait, you played me?" "You..." "Nelly yuki?" "And now she wants to go to the collegiate party." "I'm sorry, jenny." "Penelope!" "Really, though?" "So everything..." "Is exactly the same." "Nothing changed." "Everything but you." "Okay." "Hot chocolate?" "Let me get my coat." "Yeah." "Rufus." "Your message said it was urgent." "Has something happened?" "Dan knows, or..." "He doesn't yet," "But I think he will soon." "And then I imagine he'll tell serena," "And..." "I thought you should know." "Rufus, wait." "What will they think of me?" "Who, serena and eric?" "Well, it's not my problem." "We're each on our own, remember?" "Look, you already hate me." "What if they hate me, too?" "I gave away their..." "Their brother." "I wasn't ready." "I was young and scared..." "Heartbroken over you." "And cece kept pressuring me." "But the truth is, I wasn't ready to have a baby." "And it's been a hole in my life ever since." "I understand" "Why you gave him up." "But it's that you didn't tell me." "Oh, rufus, please..." "I don't hate you, lil..." "As much as I want to." "Neither will your kids." "But you've had 20 years to make peace with this." "It's gonna take me some time." "What do you wanna know?" "Hey." "What are you doing here?" "Uh, weirdly enough, i-i came to see chuck." "Me, too." "Is everything okay?" "Did you find something in the loft?" "Kind of." "Uh, can we--can we go to--somewhere to talk..." "Privately, without all of..." "This?" "Okay." "Blair!" "Aren't you a little old to be here?" "Hmm?" "I heard my nephew is throwing the first big party of the year." "And I have to say, he does the bass name proud." "I can see you've been a wonderful influence on him." "Oh, hey, eric." "Have you seen chuck?" "Uh, a while ago." "He said something about wanting to take in the view from above." "He probably meant upstairs." "Clearly, you don't know chuck." "He has a thing for rooftops." "Enjoy." "One thing about being on top of the world" "It gives you a long, long way to fall." "Chuck!" "No!" "God, you idiot!" "You don't surprise someone" "Standing off the edge of a building!" "Chuck, come away from there." "Let's go down and join the party." "I was at the party." "I'm not really that into it."
