(Basketballs bounce)
(Van idles quietly)
Audra: Yeah, goodbye!
I'll pick you up when you're done.
You don't have to follow me around!
Really?
Well, think about that the
next time you sneak out
to go to a concert!
Bye, mom!
(Van rumbles away)
(Sighs)
How are you feeling?
I'm sore, but I'll live.
I may need help planning my
escape from parental Alcatraz.
What's wrong?
We have bigger problems than your mom.
(Drew gasps)
Bianca: It's him.
Drew: "Rushed to hospital
with head injuries,
Anson Wells was declared
dead on arrival."
(Gasps fearfully)
Oh my God, what do we do?
Okay, slow down, we
don't need to panic.
Really?
We need to go to the cops!
Drew, we need to relax
and think this through.
Oh my God,
I can't believe this!
A guy tries to rape you!
We did the only thing we could!
We have to live our lives
like nothing happened.
(Police car rumbles)
Why should we turn ourselves in
if no one's looking for us?
(Sighs heavily)
(Car door slams)
(Keke Palmer song,
"the one you call" plays)
You do know she wrote that song
before she met you, right?
I just can't get over it.
I met Keke Palmer.
And now she's gone.
She was never here!
In the sense of actually
being in your life.
Yeah, but she invited me to her show.
She even pulled me up on stage!
That's gotta be something, right?
She did seem bizarrely into you.
I have to see her.
Well, did you get her number?
(Sighs)
Well, that was poor planning!
It's not like I could ambush
her at her hotel, right?
Who does that sort of thing?
Groupies, stalkers---
I should change.
No, it's fine, go!
(Laughs)
Officer Turner:
After you finish with this,
you come home,
help me in the garage.
Then you can head out
tonight, okay?
Dave: Okay.
Drew: Dave!
Hey, so I guess you patched
things up with Bianca
after the Keke show?
Yeah, it was a big
misunderstanding, my friend.
Bianca:
He's so paranoid.
Hey, did you guys hear about
that guy who got killed
like a block away from us?
Yeah, it was another murder
in the club district,right, pops?
Oh, it was a murder?
We don't know that for sure.
Yeah, but people don't usually
smash their own heads in.
You guys have any, like, leads?
We're working on it.
I gotta run, son.
Okay. Bye, pops.
Later.
(Car starts)
(Door slams)
You know, it's probably
gang stuff or something.
Oh yeah, no doubt.
Dave: Yeah, they'll probably find
the guys who did it
like dead next weekend.
(Laughs)
All right, guys,
let's shoot around!
Maybe Charlie won't recognize me.
Fifi, all you did was lie to Charlie
about having a plumbing emergency,
and it was... Very smooth.
(Groans) I know!
Just maybe I should avoid---
Charlie!
So, how's the plumbing?
Great.
It's great.
Uh---
Just some backed up pipes.
So boring.
Charlie: Right--- Um, I didn't
see your scooter out there.
Okay, I lied.
I don't have one.
Why lie?
To impress you?
I'm lesbian.
A-a lesbian?
It's a recent revelation,
in case you haven't noticed.
I wondered, I admit.
Ever since I came out, I
haven't really hung out
with any non-straight
type girls, women, uh---
People like us, I mean, if you are.
Charlie: Oh, okay.
Breathe.
(Takes a deep breath)
I am.
Um--- Everyone's gotta
start somewhere, right?
You're doing great!
(Both laugh)
(Kids holler and laugh)
Drew: It'll be okay.
We're gonna get away with this.
We just need to stick together.
(Sighs)
(Gasps)
Where's your bracelet?
I-I don't know.
Last time I wore it--- I-I
wore it to the concert!
Then?
Your name is engraved on it!
If the police find it
in the alley- I know!
We need to go.
(Sirens wail)
Sav: Hey, Keke.
Can I get an autograph?
Should I get rid of him?
Oh, one autograph, it's fine.
What are you doing here?
Um--- not stalking you?
(Both laugh)
Obviously, you're really busy.
I have to get out of here.
Excuse me? - Every second
of my life is scheduled.
I haven't had a moment to myself.
It never stops.
Okay, um--- What are
we supposed to do?
(Sighs)
Run.
What?!
Run. Now!

Fiona: So now what?
Coffee?
I have dialysis.
Rain check?
Sure.
Charlie: So, you have a girlfriend?
Oh, Holly J?
Um, uh---
In the platonic, non-lesbian sense.
(Both laugh awkwardly)
(Sighs)
So what's it like?
You've never ridden one?
Lucky for you, I carry an extra helmet.
Do you give a lot of girls

Mmm---
Only special ones.

Vince:
Sorry I couldn't help you.
Maybe we should
just turn ourselves in,
tell the cops everything.
No!
I can't.
I have a record.
What kind of record?
I beat up some girl at a club
and I'm still on probation!
But this was self-defense!
He attacked you -
You know that!
I know that.
But the cops are already
talking murder.
(Car engine starts)
(Police car rumbles)
(Sighs)
Then let's find your bracelet.
(Cars rumble,
horn honks)
Nice and chill, good coffee.
Your hangout's the business!
Yeah, The Dot's normally
infested with high schoolers,
but during spring break,
ghost town central.
I'm glad you showed up.
Can I ask you something?
Why me?
You seem nice.
But for real though.
I mean---
You're this famous singer
and I'm just a regular guy.
You're special, Sav.
Please.
I'm no jet-setting, club-rocking,
hit-making super diva!
It's just nice to get a coffee
with a down-to-earth guy,
once in a while.
(Sighs heavily) That was quick.
Stupid GPS phone.
Bodyguard: Yeah, I'll
get her to rehearsal.
Ms.

I guess this is it.
At least you have my autograph.

Two more minutes, just to be sure.

Looking for something?
Vince:
The name's Vince.
And you are Bianca L. Desousa.
That's not my name.
Vince: You shouldn't put so much
personal info online, Bianca!
And you must be
the boyfriend, Drew.
So you two go to Degrassi, huh?
What do you want, man?
You gonna go to the cops?
You got no idea what
you got yourself into, do you?
Next time I see you,
payback.
(Gasps)
There's a guy out there with a gun.
What if he comes after
my family or my friends?
Or you?
I can't live like this!
Drew, please!
We can't go to the police.
I know.
That's why we need to
find that Vince guy.
So he can shoot us?
No. So I can talk to him!
I don't think Vince is the type
of guy who listens to reason.
It's the only way to get out of this!

I know a guy who can track him down.
Thank you.
I hope you know what you're doing.
Me too.

Holly J:
What's the emergency?
Fiona:
Isn't it pretty?
Holly J: Oh, right.
Your new obsession.
Charlie took me for a ride
and it made me feel free.
So I'm getting my licence
and picking it up tomorrow!
(Holly J laughs)
Not to be a bucket of water,
but you sure you and Charlie
are gonna scooter off
into the sunset together?
Well, she certainly enjoys my company;
she's coming to my place.
Oh?
What are you gals gonna do?
Sketch.
Just the two of you?
Alone?
Oh my God--- What if
something happens?
You wanted a spring fling, right?
(Sighs happily)
(Fiona and Holly J laugh)
(Sirens wail distantly)
(Crickets chirp)
You're sure he's coming?
That's what I hear.
Any hints about what you're gonna say?
I don't want you trying
to change my mind.
(Dog barks)
Vince:
What's up, dead meat?
This better be worth my time.
Drew:
Then I'll make it quick.
Look, I get the whole
eye for an eye thing.
But you have to understand,
this was purely self-defense.
And I'm really, really sorry for
what happened to your friend.
Anson wasn't my friend;
he was useful.
He helped me get paid.
So now you owe me.
No!
It's okay.
Vince:
I could use somebody like you.
Squeaky clean, popular
high school dude.
Lots of potential customers.
Like for drugs?
This was your plan all along.
Well, if you and your boy
wanna keep from getting shot.
Fine, I'll do it.
First, you gotta prove
I can trust you.
You want me to shoot someone?
You in or you out?
(Gun clicks)
Vince:
It's gonna go down tomorrow.
I'll call you with the name,
and where to find him.
This is your one chance, bro!

Nice pad you've got here.
Fiona:
It's comfy.
So, what should we draw?
Fruit?
Another banana?
Fiona, I've taken levels
of still life classes.
Where do you want me?
Oh!
Uh--- You're gonna model?
Charlie:
Yeah!
I model for you,
you model for me.
Okay.
(Laughs awkwardly)
(Sighs)
(Laughs)
Are my shoulders really that pointy?
Fiona:
Oh no, you don't like it?
No, I do.
I love it.
What are you doing in there?
When I found out my spring
break trip was cancelled,
I thought I'd never get
a chance to wear this.
The suspense is killing me.
Fiona:
(Laughs)
Do you like it?
It's cute.
So now it's your turn to sketch.
Where do you want me?
(Sighs)
Right there.
Like that.
The way the light hits
you, right there,
that has to be one of the most
beautiful things in the world.
I'm sorry, uh--- Can we just sketch?
I'm really sorry.

I'm gonna need you to stand still.

Hey, sounds great!
Is that Keke?
No, it's me!
Alli:
You're writing songs again?
Does this mean you're not bummed?
No, I-I'm not deluded, Alli!
I was one degree from Keke Palmer!
That could've been a
whole semester of cred!
You know what the best part is?
I haven't thought about
Holly J for a whole day.
(Computer chimes)
Whoa--- what's this?
Whoa! Hey!
Sav?
Keke!
How did you find me?
I have people.
You okay?
Yeah, I mean,
I'm-I'm keeping busy,
working on songs,
and working on my demo.
Keke: I've been working
on something too!
Sav, I'm sorry I had to run.
I hope you didn't think
I was playing with you.
Sav:
Nah, it's fine.
It was fun while it lasted.
Truth is, I needed the pick me up.
Keke:
So did I.
Sav: So, can I hear it?
Your new track?
Well, it's just a melody,
but I can wing it.
Well, that would be awesome.

Sketchy?
If humiliation had a

What happened?
We kissed.
Holly J:
Fiona Celestine Arabella Coyne,
you naughty little minx!
So, are we talking spring fling,
or should I make new plans
for chick TV night?
Well, I kissed her, and then she
kissed me, and kept kissing me,
and then I totally chickened out.
Rejection is harsh.
Followed by the most
awkward hour of sketching
since the invention of charcoal.
(Fiona sighs nervously)
Are we skipping art class?
No, I have to face this.
Hey, Charlie.
Look, if you hate me, I get it.
Last night, I might have moved
faster than I should have.
I like you, it's just---
This is all so new to me,
and I just wanna make
sure we're friends.
Friends first, benefits maybe later.
It makes sense.
We'll only go fast on the street---
If a friend can give
another friend a ride.
I don't see why not.

Well, I hope the brakes on your crush
