(Marissa walks out of the room & Oliver walks around her living room, he picks up a photo of Marissa & Ryan, looks at it then puts it behind one of Marissa & Jimmy, hiding it)

Theme Song - California by Phantom Planet

Cohen's backyard - Sandy and Seth are trying to teach Ryan golf.

Sandy: alright knees bent (Ryan bends his knees) not quite that much, back straight eyes right over the ball, feet a little closer together (Ryan moves his feet) just off your left foot there you go, not quite that close together but (Ryan moves them apart again) that's ok alright just let it hang like a pendulum, nice an easy (sways his hands back and forth like he's going to swing) nice an easy keep breathin, nice an easy (Ryan looks at him) nice...ill stop ill s- ill just go right over here

(Ryan looks down and hits the golf ball, he is meant to be putting it into a cup. but it bounces straight into the pool)

Seth: (jumps up from the pool, with the ball) I got it! (goes back under the water. Ryan sighs and looks like he's had enough)

Sandy: alright one more

Ryan: no, no more

Sandy: oh come on you were so good at the driving range

Ryan: I don't play golf (holds the club out)

Seth: (in the pool) not true buddy, you just don't play well

Sandy: and you know there's plenty more to do in Palm Springs other then play golf you can spa

Ryan: no I don't spa

Sandy: you don't play golf (shrugs) you don't spa what'd you do

Sandy: (now he's copying) very good with the ladies

Ryan: (not impressed) he's standing right here holding a golf club!

Sandy: yeah but you don't know how to use it (takes it from Ryan)

Ryan: right which is why I'm not goin ta palm springs

Seth: hey yes you are going to palm springs ok listen to me (Ryan rolls his eyes) ya did something nice for Oliver now he wants to repay you by taking us to his mansion in palm springs without you there is no deal why cant you understand that

Sandy: this kid Oliver has a mansion on a golf course

Seth: yeah he's also got a ski chalet in mammoth

Sandy: wow I guess sometimes it's good to be Oliver

Seth: sometimes it's great to be Oliver (to Ryan) but you or I don't care about those sort of things do we (Sandy putts the ball into the cup) or Marissa I don't think she cares either

Ryan: you think (Sandy smiles)

Seth: I don't know but even if she's a little bit impressed look over there (points) huh who's got himself a pool house

Sandy: with ocean views, here come on take another shot (Ryan takes the club) nice an easy (to Seth) so (crouches down near Seth) Oliver's parents are gonna be there?

Oliver: am I trying to hard with him, all I want is to be friends an I jus feel like he hates me

Marissa: (laughs) c'mon on lets go (they drive off)

(Ryan & Luke get in their golf cart and aren't far behind. we see it switch between Luke & Ryan, then Oliver & Marissa all driving and having a great time - we see Marissa & Oliver coming over a hill & Luke & Ryan are at the bottom of it heading up. Ryan, Luke & Marissa are smiling/laughing. Oliver has a serious/determined look on his face and keeps going, just before they are about to hit head on Ryan swerves to miss them)

Oliver: this always happens (Ryan looks worried) Natalie, my friends at pacific, an now you (yells and hits his head) I'm so stupid!

Ryan: its ok you just talked to him

Marissa: (trying again) that was twenty minutes ago (on the phone) (urgent) hi Marissa Cooper for Oliver Trask please

CUT TO: Oliver in the pent house, with a glass of alcohol, he's dancing very energetically, pleased with himself. in the background you can hear 'Its not unusual' playing on the stereo and the phone ringing, which he ignores. He puts his drink down and sits on the couch, there are 5 bottles of pills in front of him on the table, still moving to the music he opens one bottle and tips them out on the table, he throws the empty bottle over his shoulder

CUT TO: Ryan and Marissa still in the car

Ryan: (worried) I thought you said he was ok

Marissa: (still trying to reach Oliver) he said he was, he said he spent the last hour in the bathroom getting the pills out of his system but...if that's true...

Ryan: what?

Marissa: (upset) why isn't he picking up

CUT TO: Oliver, the phone is still ringing, he is emptying more bottles of pills out on the table, he throws the containers in all different directions, and he is smiling. phone is still ringing. he gathers the pills together then looks over at a clock ornament thing, it has a removable lid. he picks it up and takes the lid off. he slides the pills into the ornament, puts the lid back on and puts it back where he was on the side table. he picks up his drink and lies back on the couch. he takes a sip, the look on his face borders on psychotic! its very freaky

CUT TO: Cohen house - Kirsten is in bed reading and Hailey comes in, angry

Hailey: (yells) what the hell did you say ta dad, I know your behind this

Kirsten: (sitting up) Hailey we had a conversation, an we both agreed

Hailey: (still angry) how convenient that the one thing you two agree on is how'ta screw me over (Kirsten looks down, not saying anything)

(next thing we see is Hailey coming down the stairs with her luggage. Kirsten is coming down behind her)

Kirsten: oh Hailey, you don't have'ta do this

Hailey: (upset) I thought this was what you wanted, me on my own not taking dad's money not taking up room in your house

Kirsten: I never said that you couldn't stay

Hailey: (stops & turns around) no you said you wanted me to live my own life, be on my own, be independent an then you went behind my back an sabotaged my relationship with dad

Kirsten: what relationship with dad? you take his money an then you take off

Hailey: my relationship with dad is between me an dad...was between me an dad

Kirsten: (sincerely) I jus don't wanna see you get inta anymore trouble

Hailey: well now you wont have to

(they both look at each other, hurt. sound of a horn)

Hailey: there's my cab (gathers her things and walks to the door)

Kirsten: (worried) ooh Hailey where are you gonna go? ya don't have any money

Hailey: yeah well who's fault is that, ill find another way to get by

Kirsten: (sighs) you could stay here an work for dad

Hailey: why, so I can be as independent as you are, living off his money in the mc mansion he built you...I'm sorry...but you were right I need ta have my own life and the only way that I can do that is to get as far away from dad, an as far away from you...as I can (Kirsten looks at her. horn again) ill see ya (walks out)

(Kirsten just stares, helplessly)

CUT TO: The pent house - Ryan and Marissa are banging on Oliver's door desperately

Marissa: (upset) Oliver open up...please...its me (to

Ryan) we have to call security

Ryan: you alright man?

Oliver: yeah a little embarrassed

Marissa: so what did you take exactly

Oliver: uh I don't know...bunch'a sleeping pills, some pain killers

Marissa: well how many

Oliver: (sighs) I don't remember (walks over to Marissa) but I got em all outta my system, I promise

Marissa: (concerned) well did you drink any water cause your probably dehydrated

(Oliver sits on the couch)

Marissa: y'know what we should call room service, you want any ginger ale or gatorade

Ryan: maybe we should take him to the emergency room, I mean he swallowed all those pills

Oliver: if they were in my system I'da felt em by now

Ryan: yeah but I mean why take any chances I mean we can take ya now

Oliver: the thing is...if we go to the emergency room (Marissa sits next to him) they'll put me under suicide watch for seventy two hours, they'll call the cops an then they'll call my parents in Zurich, I mean the truth of it is I'm fine, really I jus wanna jus crawl into my bed and forget this day ever happened

CUT TO: The Cohen house - Kirsten is on the bed reading and a drunk Sandy tries to sneak in. he slowly shuts the door, unbeknownst to him Kirsten is watching, amused. Sandy turns away from the door and ends up next to the dresser, he's confused

Marissa: what're you talking about
