"It's the oldest story in the world." "One day you're 17 and planning for someday... and then, quietly, and without you ever really noticing... someday is today." "And then someday is yesterday." "And this is your life." "If you had a friend you knew you'd never see again... what would you say?" "If you could do one last thing for someone you love... what would it be?" "Say it." "Do it." "Don't wait." "Nothing lasts forever." "And cut." "That's great." "Good work, everyone." "Let's move on." ""Nathan and I will be together again."" ""I will live in a big house with a beautiful son and daughter."" "Oh." ""I'll find bigfoot."" "There's still time for that." "Dude." "Chris Keller is on the lam." "Unh, come here." "Well, hello, everybody." "Hi, Haley." "Love that." "Hey, let's hear it one more time for Blind Pilot." "As most of you know, tonight is a very special night for us... so I'd like to take a moment to thank you all for being here." "The time that we've spent together over the years has meant so much... and without you, we would not be here tonight." " Thank you." " Yeah." "This night is yours." "This night is ours." "And it's full of all kinds of surprises." " Dude, you can't surprise a guy like that." " I'm sorry." " What's with the beard, anyway?" " I told you, I'm on the lam." " From who?" " From professional killers." "I've been laying low for months." "Didn't you notice I was gone?" "I just thought you were on tour or something." "On tour?" "Dude, I'm a fugitive." "They arrested everybody, Chris." "Man, it's been done for a long time now." "What?" "You could have called me." "When Haley sees me, she's not gonna know who I am... so you should probably just tell her I'm an old friend or something." " I'll tell her you're a bum who was hungry." " Cool." "Actually, I am kind of hungry." "Chris." "Whoa, why are you hugging a stranger, lady?" "Thank you for helping to bring Nathan home." "You're welcome." "Anything for you." "I can't believe I didn't get to thank you before you left on tour, heh." "Um..." "I was on the lam." " You okay?" " It's from Dan Scott's estate." "It's a check." "Why?" " Marvin, this is for $500,000." " I know." " Again, why?" " I don't know." "Well, what does the note say?" "It says, "What you do matters."" "Wow." "Looks pretty good, huh?" "It's like a time capsule." "I could tell you stories about nights spent in this room." "I'll bet." "Easy, pervy." "I did a lot of growing up in here." "Wishing and dreaming." "Figuring out who we were gonna be, you know?" "Check it out." "Your boyfriend wish lists." "I kind of had to bump Peyton's dad off the list." "Yeah." "You are doing so great." "I'm so proud of you." "I'm proud of you too." "Those nights you were trying to figure out who you're gonna be?" "However you got there, whatever it took, you made it." "And I'm so in love with the girl you became."

"Chase Adams, bar owner." "Remember where you were the night this place opened?" "Yeah, uh, Brooke got drunk, I took her home, and then Felix got all the credit." " Who?" " Doesn't matter." "Well, uh, speaking of getting drunk, try this." "You forget I worked here." "No, thank you." " It's my 10th anniversary shot, man." " Damn, she's good." "Hey, man, there's a super-powerful A and R guy here and I need a drink." "Oh, done." " Never do that again." " Ow." "That tasted like the devil's ass." "All right." "A and R guy." "You can do this, Chris Keller." " Hey." " Hey, Clay Evans." "How you feeling?" "Good." "Knock on wood." "Chase." "Tenth anniversary shot." " Oh, come on." " Awful." "Hey, Wolverine, you got a second?" "Okay." "So listen, buddy, you know Quinn and I are getting married." "Nice hookup on the engagement ring." "Strong." "Anyways, I wanted to talk to you about something." " You're pretty happy here, right?" " Yeah." "Well, you know when I wandered off and you stayed with Grandma and Grandpa?" "Well, the state, they kind of gave them custody of you... and I just said "custody" to a 6-year-old." "Uh..." "How come you're acting so weird?" "Because I'm a weird dude." "An odd duck." "You'd be a funny duck." "When this funny duck was gone, your grandma and grandma... became your mom and dad, until they could find him." "Right." "But now that I'm back, I was wondering what you think about... me being your dad again?" "I mean, for good." "You're already my dad, Dad." "All right." "Good talk."

" Well, well..." " Heard you were on the lam." " I was." "Unnecessary, I'm told, but does anyone text Chris Keller?" "Apparently not." "Hey, Nate, listen, I'm sorry to hear about your dad." "Yeah." "I appreciate that, man." "Anyway, uh, I didn't get a chance to say thank you... so this is just a small way of saying it now." " Open it up." " What?" "No way, dude." "This looks just like the guitar I sold to get Haley her masters back." "Well, it's not just like the guitar." "It is the guitar." "What?" "You found Haley James?" "Oh." "You named your guitar after my wife?" "No, no." "Um, I named it after the porn star." "This is... wow, come here." " Whoa." " Ha, ha." " All right." "Okay." "All right." " Yeah." "You're welcome." "Hey, good luck tonight." "I heard there's some big-shot label guy here, so..." "Yeah." "Frank Parks." "Could be a big night." "It already is." "Hey, Nate." "I'm really glad you're okay." "For Haley, I mean." "Thanks." "Hey, do you remember the first time we met?" "It was right here, like, 10 years ago." "It's been all downhill from there, huh?" "Well, well, Chris Keller usually waits until after his show... but I'll give you the early bird special." "Francesca Parks." "What?" "You're Frank Parks from the label?" "Frankie Parks." "Too bad for you we're not looking to sign balladeers who sing about breakfast foods." "We're looking for rock acts." "Sucks for you." "House band." "Blues riff." "F-sharp minor." "Let's go."

"Hey, little boy, can I kidnap you?" "Oh, wait, you've already been kidnapped." " So have you." " Exactly." "We go to say good night and you're missing." "Your mom starts freaking out." "You realize we're the Scott family, right?" "I sent you a text." "I just needed to practice." "Okay, weird son of mine." "What are you doing practicing your shot on the Rivercourt in the middle of the night?" "I saw yourjersey on the wall at the high school." " So?" " So people expect me to be good." "Come here, buddy." "When you were younger, it was easy to tell you... that you can be whatever you wanna be." "Of course that's true." "But you're old enough to understand that people are gonna expect you... to be really great at sports." " Because you and Grandpa Dan were?" " That's right." "Now look, the important thing to remember... is that you don't have any responsibility to any of those people." "Not to them, not to me." "You have to find what makes you happy." "Be a good man while you chase whatever that is... but whatever it is, is up to you." "I like playing sports." "Thank God." "That's my boy." "No, but seriously, play sports for you, not for anybody else, okay?" " Right." " All right." "Let's get home." "I'll have to figure out how to talk your mom into not grounding you." "Oh, maybe we could say I was kidnapped again." "Ah, It's a little played out." "Hi." "Good afternoon." "Can I help you?" "Yeah, hi." "My name is Clay Evans." "I'm supposed to sign custody papers today for this knucklehead." " Hi." " Hi, cutie." "That office went to lunch." "Come back in an hour, we can help you then." "Okay." "You're Bevin, right?" "I'm Quinn." "We went to high school together." "Of course." "Haley's sister." " How are you?" " I'm good." "I just got engaged." "Oh, congratulations." "I was married for a while but I really hated my husband." "Anyway, one hour and we'll fix you right up." " Good." " Okay." "Thanks." "Okay, we got an hour to kill, buddy, what do you wanna do?" " What are my choices?" " You could help me plan the wedding." " Okay." " Oh, no." "What is happening to him?" "Oh, brother, he's fuguing." "He probably has no idea who you are or anything about weddings." " Weak." " What's that, huh?" "Oh, fugue Logan wants to sneak into court and watch crackheads get sentenced." " Cool." " He's back." "Thank God." "We should go." "Nice dodge on the wedding stuff, dude." "Seriously." "Hey, Haley." "It's me." "Um, I just wanted to talk to you about the dresses... and some ideas that I had for the wedding, and then, um..." "Oh, I wanna see if we can make, like, mini banana cream pies for every table... so, um... oh, let me get you the name of the bakery." "Hold on." "Mom." "You coming?" "It doesn't matter how you plan it." "It doesn't matter how you envision it." "I'll call you back." "Without even knowing it, sometimes life has a way of finding you... with exactly what you need." "Come on, let's go." "Or exactly who you need." "Five hundred thousand dollars?" "Now that's a spicy meatball." "Huh?" "It was Jimmy's catch phrase." "Mine was "whammo kablammo."" "Oh, my boy was such a dork." "He left a note too." "It said, "What you do matters."" "Yeah." "What you do with half a million dollars does matter." "I thought he gave his money to charity when he did that show in the school." "He did." "But Nathan said he told his lawyers to give some of it away after he died." "I remember seeing Dan not long after I got fired... for refusing to report the rumors about Nathan and the pregnancy allegations." "I said it didn't matter that I took a stand on the air." "He said it did." "That's a hell of a thank you." "There's more to it than that." "I just don't know what it is yet." "Maybe it has something to do with the hallway." "Two people died there that day and you knew both of them." "So did Skills." "And Nathan." "Why me?" "Because you did the right thing." " What are you doing?" " I love them." "Who?" "The twinterns?" "You can't, they're mine." "Don't look." "Hey, stop." "Quit being so selfish." "There's two of them." "Wait." "They're looking." "They're like robots." "Like hot ninja robots." "They're not like robots." "They're angels." "Angels smile." "You ever seen them smile?" "Robots don't smile." "I wonder what they're like at home." "Hold still." "All right." "Do you see them?" "Dude, just hold still." "Oh, wait, wait, wait." "I see them." " Oh, my God." " What?" "Are they naked?" "Yes, Chris, they're naked." "They're just hanging out naked." " I knew it." " They're not naked." "They're watching a movie." "What movie?" "It's The Notebook." "Wait, one of them is crying." "No, wait." "They're both crying." "They're not robots?" "Not only that, but they're like girls." "Like girly girls." " Wait." "They saw me." " Chris Keller's work here is done." "No." "Chris, come on." "Dude, wait." "No." "Hey." "What you doing?" "I used to love that Karen had books here, so I thought I'd bring it back." "Oh, this is great." "Speaking of bringing things back... did you hear there's a new tenant moving in across the street?" "No." "Um, hope they're nicer than the last one." "Mm." "I think they'll be okay." "Little place called Baker Man." "No way." "Oh, my God." " Congratulations." " Oh, thank you." "It'll be our own little corner of the world, you and me." "And my suddenly gross parents." "Remember what you were doing 10 years ago when TRIC opened?" "Yes." "I was raising money for the needy." "You were raising money for yourself." "Your parents had lost their income and you wanted a new dress." "You ended up selling your own blood." "Not my proudest moment." "Look at you now." "Two businesses on the corner of Front and Grace... and your parents, though they may be gross... are finally acting like your parents." " I'm proud of you, Brooke Davis." " Thank you." "I like that our street is called Grace." "I've never known anybody with as much of it as you." "It'll be a nice corner." "It'll be our corner." "Yeah." "Well, well." "You were saying?" "Fine." "You're good." " And we're interested." " I know." "But I'm not." "Sucks for you." "You cannot help yourself, can you?" "Feels so good." "I'm gonna hate myself in the morning, though." "Chris Keller feels like Chris Keller's dates sometimes." "You come down here to run the label, you hire the Sisters Grimm..." " you do not good work." " Come on." "What bands did you hire?" "None." "I'm the one that had to find our next new artist." " I gotta let you go, Chris." " Why?" "Because you're the next artist I found." "Your music's great." "Your live show is great." "What are you running from?" "Well, professional killers until this week." "I don't know." "I didn't like the version of me then." "The first time." " You're not that guy anymore." " Yeah." "Actually, you're still pretty much that guy, but you're working on it." "Points for that." "Good talk." " Hi, everybody." " Hi, Brooke." "That never gets old." "How's everybody's night going?" "Well, it is about to get a whole lot better." "Please welcome Gavin DeGraw."

"Mm, I always loved that house." "It deserved better." "It deserved a family." "Why do people waste so much time fighting?" "And where does it get us?" "It's funny how our past frames us." "How the person we used to be never lets loose of the person we are." "Past failures and disappointments... even victories take hold of us." "They haunt us like ghosts or visit us like old friends." "This week, we launch a new program... that will explore the world of sports from a human-interest point of view." "For a preview of that program, here's the host, our boy, Marvin McFadden." "The name Jimmy Edwards will always mean something to this town." "He's remembered as the confused boy who took a handgun to school... and then took his own life." "The name Keith Scott was also enshrined that day... as a would-be hero who tried to intervene." "This is how time remembers them." "It's not how I remember them." "I knew them as friends, as did Antwon." "And I knew them as sports fans." "Both believed that at their best, sports and athletes can be transcendent." "They can remind us that an underdog can still find glory... and that there might still be magic left in David's sling." "So today, I'm proud to announce... the Edwards-Scott Memorial Scholarship Program." "A scholarship program for college-bound students... who plan to pursue any sports-related majors." "Coaches, trainers, coordinators and, yes, broadcasters." "It's not my intention that one day this scholarship fund will erase the past... but it is my intention that one day it might eclipse it... and remind a new generation of sports fans that what you do matters... and how you do it matters." "I'm Marvin McFadden." "Whammo kablammo." "That's a spicy meatball." "We'll be back after this."
