THE HOSPITAL
Brooke and Peyton arrive at the hospital with Angie
PEYTON : Okay, tell me again why Angie's surgery is so last-Minute.
BROOKE : 'Cause it's all done on a volunteer basis. Surgeons donate their services, so it depends on when they have an opening and the right medical and everything. I just didn't think it was gonna be today.
PEYTON : Well, what can I do?
BROOKE : You're doing it. Thank you. But would you mind calling Lucas for me? He's just gotten so attached to Angie, and I think he's gonna want to know.

LUCAS : Nothing just... I haven't heard from Lindsey in a while, you know, maybe a week, and I... I mean, it's one thing for her to give me the key back, but... I mean, she's still editing my book. I think she's ducking me.
SKILLS : Nah, she's ain't ducking you, bro. She's probably just busy.
LUCAS : Yeah. I just wish she'd call, you know?

While Peyton is in the hallway, she walks by another room where Dan is with his doctor, but she doesn’t see him
DOCTOR : Over the next couple of months, you're gonna start to feel sluggish. It's important not to push it. There is some good news, though.
DAN : What? I've got seven months to live instead of six?
DOCTOR : ‘cause your physical size and blood type you're number two on the donor recipient list for a compatible heart. Wear this pager with you 24 hours a day. If a heart becomes available, we'll have about six hours to place it.
DAN : Number two, huh? What's it gonna cost for me to get to number one?
DOCTOR : Well, I'm pretty certain reverend Carter isn't willing barter with his life. He's in pretty bad shape. Good man, too.
DAN : Good man? What's that supposed to mean... "Good man"?
DOCTOR : We're not allowed to discriminate when it comes to saving lives, Dan. If the heart fits, my job is to place it into whoever needs it.
DAN : Oh, I see. It doesn't matter if they're miracle workers or murderers.

HALEY : I feel like I should go by and see her.
PEYTON : No, no, no, I already told you, you are under strict orders not to go anywhere until you have recorded at least one song.
HALEY : All right, fine. Even in a crisis she is bossy
(We hear a voice from a microphone)

Mia comes out of the booth to hug Haley
MIA : This is so great, you guys. Look at you go, Peyton.
PEYTON : Me? Look at you . You've sold nearly 100,000 copies, dude.
MIA : Well, hey, man, that's you and Haley and that creepy label guy from LA. That you have some sort of weird sexual tension with.
PEYTON : Ew. No, I don't.
MIA : You kind of do.
HALEY : What about you, rock star? You got any flings we can scold you about while secretly wanting to hear more?
MIA : No, you know how it is, Haley. It's a different city every night and press in the morning. I can't even imagine having a date, let alone an actual relationship.
(Haley seems sad and nostalgic)
PEYTON : Uh, well, you have plenty of time for boys. You are, what, like 18 years old? Oh, speaking of... Do you want to do a psa for rock the vote?

NATHAN : Well, Jamie got tired.
DEB : Hmm
NATHAN : Okay, fine, I got tired, but that's not the point, mom. What were you doing?
DEB : I met someone online.
NATHAN : Ugh. Who?

DEB : He's very romantic. He's sensual. We're arranging to meet soon.
NATHAN : Come on, mom. This is just weird.
DEB : What is so weird about it?
NATHAN : You don't think it's weird that you're hiding in my spare bedroom flashing some webcam?

DEB : I knew what you were doing.
NATHAN : Mom.
DEB : You were in there all the time.

BROOKE : Yeah.
LUCAS : So, um, what's going on with you and Owen?
BROOKE : Nothing, apparently. What's going on with you and Lindsey?
LUCAS : Nothing, apparently. I don't know. We... haven't spoken for over a week. She hasn't returned my calls.
BROOKE : That sucks, Luke. I'm sorry. You should get out of here. You've got that game tonight.
LUCAS : I'm okay for a little while longer.
BROOKE : Okay.
LUCAS : I'll go get us some coffees.

JAMIE : I just wanted him to know that he still had a friend, everyone should have a friend.
(They look at the sky)
JAMIE : That big cloud looks like a sheep dog.

CLOTHES OVER BROS
Peyton arrives at the store. Then we see her on the roof, where Haley is, near the edge, with a water balloon in her hand
PEYTON : Haley, don't do it! You've got too much to live for! Dude, Millicent calls says you're depressed-looking, you're headed to the roof. I get all freaked out. What's going on, foxy?
HALEY : I found my 5-Year-Old son walking alone on the street today. You know why? 'Cause I lied to him.
(After a blank)
HALEY : I'm worried I'm wasting your time with this record, Peyton.
PEYTON : No, Haley, the record's gonna be great.
HALEY : Well, I hope so, but what about after that? Mia said that her life is so nomadic that she can't even imagine having a family, a let alone a serious relationship. I have a husband and a son who need me, and a classroom full of students.
PEYTON : Okay, Haley, it's not wrong for you to want what you want, and you’re not Mia.
HALEY : But I used to be. Do you remember how hard that was on my relationship?
PEYTON : All right, so this time it won't be. This time you'll do it differently. And this time I'll help you.
(After a blank)
PEYTON : I like your water balloon.
(They both chuckle)
HALEY : Yeah, Lucas and I used to come up here and throw some off the roof on a bad day.
PEYTON : What? On who?
HALEY : Little kids, mean people, you know. You'd be surprised at how good it makes you feel.
PEYTON : Well, speaking of mean people...
(They both look down to the street and see Dan grabbing a news paper)
HALEY : We were just kids then, right
PEYTON : Yes, you’re too mature to be doing that stuff now... But I'm not.
(Peyton grabs the water balloon and throws it. We see the same seen as the beginning of the episode)
(Peyton and Haley hide)
HALEY : Dude, the guy’s gonna have a heart transplant. He's gonna drop dead.
PEYTON : You didn't tell me that! But you were right it really really was fun.
(They both laugh)
HALEY : Oh my god.

LUCAS : Yeah, well, pick it up, or I'll find someone that wants to play!
SKILLS : Luke...
LUCAS : Unbelievable. Time-Out!
(All the players come around Lucas)
LUCAS (angry) : All right, look. I know you're tired, okay? But nothing in this life comes easy, you hear me? Nothing. So suck it up. Now, we got 3 minutes left, and we're up by 9 points. Finish it! You hear me? We are not gonna lose this game.
QUENTIN : "Ravens" on three.
LUCAS : No. "Bear creek sucks." 1, 2, 3...
ALL TEAM : Bear creek sucks!
(On the other side, the other team)
OPPONENT COACH : You hear that? They're taunting you. And they're right. Their point guard only has one hand.
PLAYER : Yeah, but it's a good hand, coach.
OPPONENT COACH : All right, then, here's what we're gonna do. Whenever he gets the ball, you foul him. He'll either miss his free throws... or we'll break his other hand. All right, let’s go "four-nine" on three. 1, 2, 3...
ALL TEAM : Four-Nine!
(The game starts again and one of the Bear push Quentin)
LUCAS : Ref, that's flagrant
REFEREE : No, sir. It's one and one.

(Ronnie hits Quentin in his wrist)
REFEREE : Out of bounds. Warrior ball.
LUCAS : What?! You're kidding me. On the street, that's assault. You're not even gonna call that a foul in here?
(It’s the same scene as the beginning of the episode)
REFEREE : Technical foul.
LUCAS : Oh, you're gonna "t" me. You blow the call, and you're gonna "t" me up?!
REFEREE : You're gonna get tossed, son.
RONNIE : You need to throw his dumb ass out.
(Lucas grabs Ronnie and starts a fight)
LUCAS : How do you like it, punk?
NATHAN : Jamie, you stay here with Mouth.
REFEREE : You’re ejected, coach
(Nathan grabs Lucas and they leave the field)
Lucas and Nathan enters the locker room. Lucas is really angry
NATHAN : Luke, what the hell happened?
LUCAS : That kid intentionally tried to hurt "Q," and you saw it.
NATHAN : I know, but, Luke, you grabbed him, man.
LUCAS : I should have knocked him out! God!
(Lucas sits, trying to calm down)
NATHAN : This is really bad, Luke.
(After a blank)
LUCAS : She's seeing someone else. Lindsey. She called at halftime... I can't believe it. She's supposed to come back to me.
NATHAN : Luke, I know you don't want hear this, but... What if she doesn't? What if she's not going to? You can't wait around forever. Maybe it's... Maybe it's time to move on.
