My Life with the Walter Boys (2023) s01e06 Episode Script
Baggage
[upbeat music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Olivia] Am I gonna have to see
Alex and Jackie all over each other
at the bonfire this weekend?
God, I hope not.
They've been sickening since Thanksgiving.
Hey, did you wanna get ready at my place
on Saturday? We could ride together.
You aren't riding with Cole?
Aren't you guys a thing again?
I'll see him there.
Besides, I kind of want you
to do my hair with that wand thing.
Oh, yeah. [chuckles]
- Hey.
- Hey, what's up?
Um, I brought something for you.
I put some music on here
that I thought you might like.
You know, just like bands and playlists.
Uh, plus, there's an extra song
for you at the end.
Music from a musician? I'm honored.
Something like that.
I can't wait to listen.
Thanks, Nathan.
[chuckles]
Hey, Walter. We still on for Catan later?
For sure.
Catan today, beer pong on Saturday.
Oh, we need to find a third, though.
Marcus bailed again.
- Again?
- Yup.
[bell rings]
What? Is there something in my hair?
No. Nothing in your hair.
Okay, I'm out.
- I'll find someone to sub.
- Mm-hmm.
Beer pong?
Oh, it's a bonfire thing. You'll see.
Still, it's insane to me
that you've never been to one.
I don't think a giant open flame
on the Upper West Side
would go over so well.
That's a really good point.
It's a very big deal around here.
Oh, and there's this rock formation thing
I wanna take you to.
Something about the acoustics
makes it feel like you're miles away
from the bonfire, or anyone really.
And it's super dark,
so the stars are all you can see.
It's just us and them.
Hmm.
Just us, huh?
How fun for you two.
Planning your spontaneous date night.
What are you, 40?
Shut up, Cole.
I happen to like plans.
And if it makes us happy, then who cares?
We are happy, aren't we?
Totally happy.
How's that for spontaneous?
It's it's whatever.
- Whatever.
- Erin.
Wait up.
There you are.
Hey.
Let's, uh, circle back
to that just-us thing. Yeah?
[upbeat sentimental music playing]
So, tell me about this bonfire thing.
- I heard it's kind of a big deal here.
- Okay. Try a huge deal.
- Seriously.
- You're going with Alex, right?
Yeah.
Do you think you guys are gonna
You know.
[Skylar chuckles]
What? No. No. Why would you think that?
- Tons of people hook up at the bonfire.
- Like, everyone.
- Yeah, it's, like, a thing.
- Well, no, not us. We're not there yet.
Like, we're not even close to it.
- What?
- Yeah, right.
Are you sure about that?
You guys do seem pretty close.
Yeah, and if that's how you are
in public, in private, okay.
[Skylar chuckles]
Okay, Alex has got to chill on the PDA.
Are you not into it?
Because if you're not
No. No, it's
it just feels a little extra.
Right? In public?
- Way public.
- True.
He was not like this at all
over winter break,
or when we're at home.
Really? 'Cause he wasn't like this
with Paige either.
He wasn't. I was just about to say.
- I've never seen Alex like this.
- Wait, what?
Alex and Paige used to date?
Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty sure
she was Alex's first.
Girlfriend! First girlfriend.
[pensive music playing]
- I don't know why he didn't tell me.
- Probably because of Cole.
- What about Cole?
- Um
- You know
- Well, they hooked up, right?
So I'm sure Alex is just trying
to prove something,
especially now you guys are together.
I'm not following.
- Cole and Alex, they fought over Paige.
- Fought over?
[Skylar] Grace, maybe we should
Well, it wasn't, like, fighting per se.
It was more like, uh,
Cole stole Paige right out from Alex.
Cole did what?
Ladies, please.
- [Jackie and Grace] Sorry.
- Sh.
[sighs]
[Grace] If it makes you feel any better,
you're way less problematic than Paige.
[Skylar] That's true.
[indistinct chatter]
Hey, did you do the history reading?
Uh, no. No. Not yet.
I am gonna fail the quiz tomorrow.
Can't keep all these treaties straight
Alex, there's something
I really need to ask you about.
- In the library, um
- [Kiley] Hey.
- Hey. Found our third.
- Hi.
Cool. Thanks, Jackie.
Sure.
[Alex] Hey, so did you do
the history reading for tomorrow?
Jesus Christ.
Just ignore them.
Board games?
Seriously?
Are you guys actually middle-aged?
Leave, Cole. Go back to your fan club.
What, are you afraid I'd beat you?
By all means.
[Erin] Cole.
Come on. I don't wanna play
a boring-ass game. No offense.
None taken.
- Actually, yeah. Offense taken.
- Cole.
- Are you coming?
- No.
I'm playing.
Hey, thanks for meeting me.
What's going on, Hayles?
[sighs]
I just don't know
what to do at this point with Will.
Things are still so weird between us.
Weird how?
We're just not
connecting, you know?
I mean, Will is working these crazy hours.
I'm, like, a month behind on my thesis,
so we hardly ever see each other.
And then when we finally do have
a moment alone, we fight.
I mean, this is the longest
we've ever gone without,
I don't know, fixing it.
And now I'm just worried that we'll get
to a place where we can't anymore.
You guys?
No way.
You'll for sure get past this.
You think?
Yeah, I do.
And, I mean,
all relationships go through bumps.
Yeah.
You know what?
You just need a little work-life balance.
Nik and I had to do the same thing.
We have very specific ground rules.
Yeah? Like what?
Like, once we hit the parking lot,
there is no more talk of teenagers
or grades or Silver Falls High.
Yeah.
- That helps?
- Oh, yeah.
[both chuckle]
You guys seem really good.
Yeah, we are.
I'm kind of surprised just how good.
Yeah.
I'm really happy for you, Tar.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- Wait. Why don't we all go out together?
- Oh.
Yeah, no. Nik and I were gonna try
that new swanky place in Lockwood.
You guys should come.
No, we wouldn't wanna crash your date.
Please. It is not crashing.
It'll be so fun.
You and Will can reconnect.
Nik and I can leave
the apartment for once.
Wha Do you ha
- I mean, stop.
- [chuckles] Sorry.
[Haley chuckles]
So? What do you think?
- Yeah, whatever.
- Yes! Yes!
No, I think a night out
sounds pretty fantastic.
- Perfect. I'll make a res.
- Yeah. Okay.
Now, I need you to actually tell me
because you keep talking about it.
How good is the sex?
[exhales]
- I regret asking, immediately.
- [laughs]
- Let's just go.
- Okay.
[indistinct chatter]
[rock music playing faintly over speakers]
I'm gonna buy a settlement.
Another settlement, that is.
You can't build a settlement.
Those are Kiley's roads.
So?
So you can't build a settlement
that's not connected to your own roads.
The rules say
The rules are meant to be broken,
'cause this is the Wild West.
Unless, of course, you're afraid
to go rogue. Scared of a little danger?
I'm not scared. That's cheating.
Scared to play the right way,
in case you don't win?
I didn't take you for such a prude.
I didn't take you for such a coward,
Colorado. And I'm not a prude.
Sure. Sure you're not.
But this is fair game, right?
Like anyone's looking at you
as the gold standard for fair.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Erin] Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Is he flirting with her?
[Olivia] What?
Cole hooks up with everyone.
Who's he hooking up with?
I I don't know.
I mean, I thought
Aren't you guys just,
like, hanging out, like always?
No.
I mean
I mean, I don't know.
Whatever.
- Hey, babe.
- Hayles, what are you doing here?
Oh, I was just trying
to get in with the sexy bartender.
I heard he's quite a hot ticket.
I think we can arrange that.
I brought dinner.
Oh, I'm so sorry. We're swamped right now,
and I have inventory tonight.
I thought I mentioned it.
[Haley] No, no, you totally did.
Dinner is for you, not for us.
Thought you could use
a break from bar food.
You are a godsend.
I swear, I can't have
another zucchini fry for the rest of ever.
Yeah, I get it.
Well, there's no zucchini in the pad thai.
I promise.
- I triple-checked.
- Great.
Also, um,
I was wondering
if you had any plans Saturday night.
Oh, I have a shift.
Right.
What did you have in mind?
Nik and Tara invited us on a double date.
I know it's super last minute.
I just thought with the last few weeks
being what they were,
I thought I don't know. [chuckles]
- So, it's dinner?
- [Hayley] Yeah. Yeah.
They do this, um, date-night thing
where they don't talk about school.
It's this Lockwood restaurant.
And we'd get dressed up.
And honestly, their sex is great.
Wait. What?
I think this could be really good for us.
No distractions.
Just fun with friends.
I think we could use some of that,
you know?
Let's do it.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
I mean, I'm not all business all the time.
And who would I be
to say no to my sexy fiancée?
I know, right?
So it's a date, then.
Oh, yeah, it's a date.
Yeah.
[knock on door]
- [Jackie] Come in.
- [door opens]
[sighs]
I had no idea you were so competitive.
I have reading to do,
so unless you have a point
If I had known beating you
was gonna be this fun,
I would've played
your dorky game a long time ago.
First of all, you didn't beat me.
And second of all,
you didn't seem to think it was dorky
when you were bragging about ore supplies.
And third of all, just because
I want to actually follow the rules
doesn't mean I'm super competitive.
Just means I believe in right and wrong.
[scoffs]
What are you talking about?
I believe in right and wrong.
Oh, really? Would Paige agree with you?
I don't know what you mean.
Your secret is out, Cole.
I know you stole Paige from Alex,
so stop acting all high-and-mighty.
[somber music playing]
Okay, first of all, you don't know
what you're talking about.
Second of all, I didn't steal anyone.
And third of all,
if anyone acts high-and-mighty, it's you.
Excuse me?
You walk around here
like you're some saint or something,
accusing me of cheating.
But aren't you the one
with me by the fire one day
and then making out with Alex the next?
Wait. I forgot.
You're totally happy with him, right?
I may flirt around a bit,
but at least I'm honest about it.
The only one pretending
to be something they're not is you.
[door closes]
[horse whinnies]
[rooster crows]
[Mato] Jeez, you're trying to kill me?
I'm not used to
those Walter breakfasts anymore.
I may have to go to the gym later.
You know, if you put in a full day of work
here at the farm, you could skip the gym.
[scoffs] Rather you than me.
[chuckles]
[sighs] Well, I gotta get going.
- Thank you for breakfast.
- Sure.
Hey, Mato.
Hang on a second.
Um [clears throat]
[horse nickers]
Yeah, I lied to you before
about the ranch. We're not doing well.
We are drowning.
- How many months behind are you?
- Eight.
[sighs]
[somber music playing]
- I don't know how I let it get this bad.
- Hey, you didn't do anything wrong.
There's lots of places
going through the same issues.
- Stan mentioned something, but
- But nothing. This is not your fault.
It's just life.
You know, I went down
and talked to Daryl at the bank.
I even made a couple of phone calls
to try to pick up a graveyard shift.
- What?
- The dairy, the mill.
- You can't do that.
- I gotta do something.
[sighs]
Hey, um
You think there's any way that you could
Damn it.
- [Mato] George, I'm sorry.
- Forget I said anything.
You know I would lend you every dime
I have without a second thought.
But I just helped out Stan
and the Youngbloods' place.
- I don't have anything left.
- I understand.
I shouldn't have said anything.
- Just forget it.
- George, doesn't mean I'm not gonna help.
Let me think about it, okay?
- We'll figure something out.
- No, it's gonna work out.
We'll be good.
Come here.
- I appreciate you.
- [Mato] Love you, brother. Okay?
[indistinct chatter]
- Hey.
- Hey. What's up?
Um, I was just wondering
if you've heard any cool music lately.
Oh.
Uh, sorry, I haven't got
a chance to listen yet.
Oh. No. No no pressure. Um
It's been like a day,
so, you know, you're busy.
You're It's no biggie.
But I'll catch you later.
You're going to the bonfire, right?
Totally.
[bright music playing]
[students chattering]
What happened to chill, Nathan? Be chill.
[upbeat music playing on radio]
[tools whirring]
Hey, you wanted to see me?
I was about to get on the floor.
Yeah, I do.
Something's been up the past few weeks.
You've been distracted.
Late for work. Come on.
You're making mistakes
you don't normally make.
Jeez, Tony. You're killing me.
How much trouble am I in?
[Tony] Just come on in here.
Look at this.
You forgot to put the top up.
Raccoons got into Mr. Tan's convertible,
ripped it up.
Sorry, Tony.
Look, I thought I'd double-checked.
- I can call him, and I'll make it right.
- I already talked to him.
He was very understanding,
as long as we take care of the damage,
which is coming out of your paycheck,
by the way.
[somber music playing]
Cole, look at me.
I don't need to know
what's going on with you,
but you need to pull your act together.
Understood?
- Understood?
- Yes. Understood.
Good. Now get on the floor.
Got a couple of engines
you need to look at.
[tool whirs]
"Love looks not with the eyes
but with the mind."
No, no, no.
[sighs]
"Love looks not with the eyes
but with the mind."
Hey. Hey. Sorry. I'm sorry I'm late.
Hey. It's okay.
Thank you for helping me
with this Juilliard application.
I would love
to get into their summer program.
No, I, um I wanna help.
There's so many things
I didn't know how to do when I moved here.
You know, like, how to muck out a stall
or make up excuses
for why I can't muck out a stall.
But this is something
that I can help you with.
So just let me put
my fancy school skills to use. Okay?
[pensive music playing]
No. No, come on, guys.
- Find another ride.
- Come on, Cole.
I mean, things are
just starting to get good with Skylar.
I wrote him a song,
and he hasn't said anything about it yet.
Today, I was so weird.
I could not have been less chill
Okay! Okay. Fine.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, this is my jam.
[rap music playing on radio]
You can't be serious.
Okay, yeah, I'll just ask Dad to take us.
I'm sure he'd be cool
with the keg and the beers.
Do any of you have friends?
Why do we need friends when we have
such a sweet brother like you?
- Dude, please, just one time.
- You know the rules. In the back.
One day I'll be the oldest,
and you all can bite me.
You won't be the oldest.
That's not how age works.
[Isaac] Shut the hell up.
Are we almost ready back there?
- [Isaac] Yes.
- We're ready.
[Danny] Let's go!

Like, if you're really into him,
just plant the seed
and let him come to you.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah. You're right.
You're right. Yeah.
- Hey, what are you doing?

You know what, Alex?
I know about you, Paige, and Cole.
Whoa, wait. What?
- Who told you?
- Why didn't you?
Just tell me this.
The PDA?
This this whole relationship.
Are you interested in me?
Or is this about getting back at Cole?
[Alex] Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
[heartfelt music playing]
Maybe I got carried away with Cole.
And I definitely
should've told you about Paige.
Why didn't you?
Because because I was embarrassed.
Because I go to bonfires
to play beer pong
and you're from the Upper West Side
and I'm into fantasy novels.
And you're so far out of my league
it's not even funny.
Alex, you know I don't care
about any of that.
I know that. I do. It's just
It's just sometimes
it's really hard to believe it.
Hey, that's not an excuse.
I promise you.
The way I feel about you
has nothing to do with my brother
and nothing to do with Paige.
Okay?
Okay.
[heartfelt music playing]
- Who wants to play beer pong?
- [Grace] Definitely me.
Wait. How's your aim?
How's perfect?
[chuckles]
Told you.
- Do you wanna play
- Kiley, wanna be with me?
Yeah, I'm down.
- Then she jumps off the bed.
- I did not jump. That's not true.
- And the lizard goes flying.
- It was off the love seat.
[Nikhil] It was the first time
I ever heard her curse.
[Tara] That is not true. I'm an angel.
- Hey, babe.
- Hmm?
Everything okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
Just sending one last
Done. Sorry.
Okay. All good.
- So
- Are you spying on me?
Dean?
What? Do you work here?
- Actually
- [Will] Wait.
I knew this place looked familiar.
Guys, this is Dean. We were
in the same business class freshman year.
Dean, this is Nik,
Tara, and my fiancée, Hayley.
- [Dean] Fiancée. Hayley.
- Yes.
Such a pleasure to meet you.
Nice to meet you all.
- How are you enjoying everything?
- Oh, it is divine, honestly.
Oh, so good. We love it.
Thank you.
It's been quite the labor of love.
- So this is yours?
- Yeah.
Really?
Dean used to talk all the time
about this restaurant
he was gonna open.
I mean, down to the chandeliers.
[Dean laughs]
Do you have a second?
- Yeah. Of course.
- Pull up a chair.
- I own the place.
- [Will] Yeah.
[Nikhil] This place is so impressive.
You say that now. Did you see
the hoops we had to jump through?
What kind of hoops?
Well, the whole concept is that everything
is organic, free-range, and seasonal.
So it took a minute
to find the right suppliers.
Then, two weeks before opening,
our head chef quits.
- Oh no.
- [Dean] Yeah.
I had to fly out to Milan
to persuade Paulo to join us.
- I'll bring him out. You'll love him.
- What? [chuckles]
[Dean] We get our wine from
this organic biodiverse vineyard in Italy.
It takes forever to clear customs.
The import duties are way more
than I expected, and
[chuckles]
- And I'm boring you.
- Oh God, no. No, no, of course not.
- Not at all.
- Sorry.
[Dean] Yeah, thanks.
Just give me one second, y'all.
Please, enjoy.
Thank you so much.
You know, Hayley and I are
in the restaurant business ourselves.
Well, temporarily, actually.
[Dean] Really?
I don't remember
you mentioning anything before.
I didn't. [chuckles]
It's new, actually,
and a bit overwhelming.
But I mean, look at this place.
If we could make ours even half
of what this is, it would all be worth it.
I can show you around if you want.
Take a look behind the scenes.
As long as your fiancée
doesn't mind if I steal you.
No. No, no, sorry.
Yeah, of course. Go have fun.
- Is that okay?
- Yes.
- Awesome. Yeah.
- [Dean] Amazing.
- I will be right back.
- Okay.
Yeah. Okay. [chuckles]
[bittersweet music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[teens] Oh!
I'll be right back, okay?
[pop music playing over speakers]
I know. I'm just warming up.
Hey.
Hi.
Uh, listen. I wanted to talk to you
about the game the other night.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm really sorry about Cole.
He ruins everything, so
Cole didn't bother me.
- Oh, yeah?
- You did.
[somber music playing]
The other night was
supposed to be about me and you.
And you brought Jackie along again.
Do you not like Jackie?
Oh my God. It's not about Jackie.
I miss hanging out.
Okay? Just just us two.
You're so caught up in her.
I feel like I barely see you anymore.
I I I
I'm sorry. I didn't realize.
Yeah, I know you didn't.
Sorry for your loss.
Who knew Grace was
such a killer at beer pong?
Beer pong's not really my thing.
So, am I your thing?
'Cause at first, you act into me,
and now you don't seem so into me. So
You wrote me a song.
- Okay.
- Dude, come on.
We're not even dating.
You have to know that's too intense.
No, I don't know that.
So, you were
What? Just gonna ghost me?
If I hadn't asked,
would you've even mentioned the song?
Right.
You know
[scoffs]it's not lame that I like you.
Or that I like you and I told you.
If you can't handle that,
that's your issue.
But I'm not gonna feel bad
for being honest just because you're not.
[sighs]
[Kiley clears throat]
How much of that did you hear?
A bit more than nothing.
Well, I'm right.
Aren't I?
Maybe.
It's kind of nice to have someone
who cares so much about you.
I wouldn't walk away from that so easily.
[sighs]
[cheering]
- Boo!
- Hey, Jackie and I got next game, okay?
Hey, good luck this round.
But I'm guessing next game goes to me.
- Are you serious right now?
- I was just talking about beer pong.
- Just because you're jealous
- You think I'm jealous of you?
Yeah, right.
You know what, Cole?
Why don't you just run back
to Erin or Paige or Olivia
and leave me and Jackie out of it?
- Okay?
- Olivia?
Yeah, I don't think I will.
Matter of fact, I don't think
I have to do anything because
if I just wait long enough,
I think they'll
all come to me anyway, right?
[teens] Oh!
[Jackie] Alex.
What are you doing?
Something I should've done
a long time ago.
Remember when you said
it wasn't about Paige?
I guess that's not the case, huh?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Okay.
Jackie, wait.
- Erin
- [Erin] No, I don't wanna hear it, Cole.
I spent all this time worried
about you and Jackie,
how much time you spend together
and seem to like her.
- What does it matter? She's with Alex.
- Yeah, I know that. Do you?
I could handle the flirting
and the casual hookups.
We had an understanding,
and I was fine with that.
But you hooked up with Olivia?
My best friend.
It's over.
We're done. For good.
- Erin.
- Oh, absolutely not.
I'm done!
With all of this. With both of you.
[girl] That's totally the worst.
[somber music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Danny] Here.
- Let's go.
- [Cole] Thanks.
I'm starving.
I didn't get a chance to eat.
How cool is that place, though?
And it's exactly the vibe
I've been going for.
And Dean.
I mean, I can't believe
he actually did it.
How great was that place?
Yeah, pretty great.
[Will] You okay?
- Are you really asking me that?
- Yes.
[Hayley] Okay.
Well, then, no, I am not okay.
I am mad.
I am very, very mad.
- Please tell me this is not about
- About work?
We were supposed to have
one night without it, just one.
But instead, that is
literally all you talked about.
- It's not all I talked about.
- Mmm.
It's not my fault Dean came over. Okay?
What was I supposed to do,
just ignore him?
No, of course not.
But you did not have to go
on a two-hour tour.
I don't understand why we keep having
this conversation. I mean,
I like working at the Lark.
I'm good at it.
Look, that would be fine
if it wasn't taking over everything.
- Your obsession with this job now is
- [Will] It's not an obsession.
I'm doing this for us, for our future.
What's wrong with that?
Babe, okay. What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with wanting a better life?
I'll tell you what's wrong with it.
That is not the life that I want.
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you ashamed of me or something?
Is a café not good enough for you?
Don't do that.
Please, do not do that.
Look, I went to Berkeley to
Got it. So I'm not smart enough for you.
Wow.
[scoffs] Okay.
I was saying that I went
to Berkeley to be that person.
The person who works all hours of the day
and hardly sees their friends
and skips parties to make deadlines.
But then I came here, and I realized
that not everybody lives that way.
That you don't have to live that way.
Don't make it seem like
I'm some weird workaholic, okay?
I'm trying to make something of myself!
And instead of supporting me
or maybe being proud of me,
it's like you resent me for it.
I don't resent you.
I just
Will, we're 25.
I wanna be 25.
I wanna go on a road trip.
I wanna stay up all night dancing
or learn French. I don't know.
I'm not ready to skip this part.
It's not worth it to me.
Well, it is to me.
[solemn music playing]
Wow, okay.
I thought this was just, like,
a small bump that we're gonna get over
and just gonna fix it. But it's it's
it's more than that.
What are you saying?
We want different things, Will.
You have to see that.
I want you.
When I saw you with Dean tonight
that is the happiest
I've seen you in months.
I cannot be the person
that takes that from you.
But I can't just give in either.
Okay? That's not good for us,
not in the long run.
This isn't
This isn't what's supposed to happen.
Look. Maybe it wasn't the
the money or the job
or the wedding that was the problem.
Maybe it's us.
[door opens]
Hi. Did you guys have fun Whoa.
Cole, what happened?
You should see the other guy.
Hang on. Hang on. Whoa.
What happened to your brother?
- [door closes]
- Hello?
Uh, I plead twin.
I plead no snitching.
Seriously?
- Someone's gotta tell me something.
- Hey, guys.
- Can you give your mom and I a second.
- [Katherine] Are you okay? Honey.
[gasps]
Mato just called.
He thinks he has a solution for us.
Well, that sounds fantastic.
Mmm.
Why do you seem like
you don't think it's fantastic?
Because he's not offering us a loan.
Okay.
He's got a developer friend
who wants to buy our land.
[sighs]
Sorry. I know this is your bathroom.
I was just trying
to avoid another encounter.
It's fine.
Done in a sec.
About before
Can we just not?
There's no point
in cleaning just one side of it.
Here.
Ow.
Hold still.
So you wanna tell me why he hit you?
Cole.
Jackie.
I think I can take it from here.
Actually, I think I can take it from here.
Thanks, Jackie.
Oh.
Cole, honey.
This area around the eye,
it's really delicate.
So you gotta treat it just right.
Otherwise, it's not gonna heal properly,
and it could scar.
And those kinds of scars
Those wounds, they're not so easy to hide.
Or easy to fix.
Do you know what I'm saying?
I don't know if it's that easy this time.

[Olivia] Am I gonna have to see
Alex and Jackie all over each other
at the bonfire this weekend?
God, I hope not.
They've been sickening since Thanksgiving.
Hey, did you wanna get ready at my place
on Saturday? We could ride together.
You aren't riding with Cole?
Aren't you guys a thing again?
I'll see him there.
Besides, I kind of want you
to do my hair with that wand thing.
Oh, yeah. [chuckles]
- Hey.
- Hey, what's up?
Um, I brought something for you.
I put some music on here
that I thought you might like.
You know, just like bands and playlists.
Uh, plus, there's an extra song
for you at the end.
Music from a musician? I'm honored.
Something like that.
I can't wait to listen.
Thanks, Nathan.
[chuckles]
Hey, Walter. We still on for Catan later?
For sure.
Catan today, beer pong on Saturday.
Oh, we need to find a third, though.
Marcus bailed again.
- Again?
- Yup.
[bell rings]
What? Is there something in my hair?
No. Nothing in your hair.
Okay, I'm out.
- I'll find someone to sub.
- Mm-hmm.
Beer pong?
Oh, it's a bonfire thing. You'll see.
Still, it's insane to me
that you've never been to one.
I don't think a giant open flame
on the Upper West Side
would go over so well.
That's a really good point.
It's a very big deal around here.
Oh, and there's this rock formation thing
I wanna take you to.
Something about the acoustics
makes it feel like you're miles away
from the bonfire, or anyone really.
And it's super dark,
so the stars are all you can see.
It's just us and them.
Hmm.
Just us, huh?
How fun for you two.
Planning your spontaneous date night.
What are you, 40?
Shut up, Cole.
I happen to like plans.
And if it makes us happy, then who cares?
We are happy, aren't we?
Totally happy.
How's that for spontaneous?
It's it's whatever.
- Whatever.
- Erin.
Wait up.
There you are.
Hey.
Let's, uh, circle back
to that just-us thing. Yeah?
[upbeat sentimental music playing]
So, tell me about this bonfire thing.
- I heard it's kind of a big deal here.
- Okay. Try a huge deal.
- Seriously.
- You're going with Alex, right?
Yeah.
Do you think you guys are gonna
You know.
[Skylar chuckles]
What? No. No. Why would you think that?
- Tons of people hook up at the bonfire.
- Like, everyone.
- Yeah, it's, like, a thing.
- Well, no, not us. We're not there yet.
Like, we're not even close to it.
- What?
- Yeah, right.
Are you sure about that?
You guys do seem pretty close.
Yeah, and if that's how you are
in public, in private, okay.
[Skylar chuckles]
Okay, Alex has got to chill on the PDA.
Are you not into it?
Because if you're not
No. No, it's
it just feels a little extra.
Right? In public?
- Way public.
- True.
He was not like this at all
over winter break,
or when we're at home.
Really? 'Cause he wasn't like this
with Paige either.
He wasn't. I was just about to say.
- I've never seen Alex like this.
- Wait, what?
Alex and Paige used to date?
Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty sure
she was Alex's first.
Girlfriend! First girlfriend.
[pensive music playing]
- I don't know why he didn't tell me.
- Probably because of Cole.
- What about Cole?
- Um
- You know
- Well, they hooked up, right?
So I'm sure Alex is just trying
to prove something,
especially now you guys are together.
I'm not following.
- Cole and Alex, they fought over Paige.
- Fought over?
[Skylar] Grace, maybe we should
Well, it wasn't, like, fighting per se.
It was more like, uh,
Cole stole Paige right out from Alex.
Cole did what?
Ladies, please.
- [Jackie and Grace] Sorry.
- Sh.
[sighs]
[Grace] If it makes you feel any better,
you're way less problematic than Paige.
[Skylar] That's true.
[indistinct chatter]
Hey, did you do the history reading?
Uh, no. No. Not yet.
I am gonna fail the quiz tomorrow.
Can't keep all these treaties straight
Alex, there's something
I really need to ask you about.
- In the library, um
- [Kiley] Hey.
- Hey. Found our third.
- Hi.
Cool. Thanks, Jackie.
Sure.
[Alex] Hey, so did you do
the history reading for tomorrow?
Jesus Christ.
Just ignore them.
Board games?
Seriously?
Are you guys actually middle-aged?
Leave, Cole. Go back to your fan club.
What, are you afraid I'd beat you?
By all means.
[Erin] Cole.
Come on. I don't wanna play
a boring-ass game. No offense.
None taken.
- Actually, yeah. Offense taken.
- Cole.
- Are you coming?
- No.
I'm playing.
Hey, thanks for meeting me.
What's going on, Hayles?
[sighs]
I just don't know
what to do at this point with Will.
Things are still so weird between us.
Weird how?
We're just not
connecting, you know?
I mean, Will is working these crazy hours.
I'm, like, a month behind on my thesis,
so we hardly ever see each other.
And then when we finally do have
a moment alone, we fight.
I mean, this is the longest
we've ever gone without,
I don't know, fixing it.
And now I'm just worried that we'll get
to a place where we can't anymore.
You guys?
No way.
You'll for sure get past this.
You think?
Yeah, I do.
And, I mean,
all relationships go through bumps.
Yeah.
You know what?
You just need a little work-life balance.
Nik and I had to do the same thing.
We have very specific ground rules.
Yeah? Like what?
Like, once we hit the parking lot,
there is no more talk of teenagers
or grades or Silver Falls High.
Yeah.
- That helps?
- Oh, yeah.
[both chuckle]
You guys seem really good.
Yeah, we are.
I'm kind of surprised just how good.
Yeah.
I'm really happy for you, Tar.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- Wait. Why don't we all go out together?
- Oh.
Yeah, no. Nik and I were gonna try
that new swanky place in Lockwood.
You guys should come.
No, we wouldn't wanna crash your date.
Please. It is not crashing.
It'll be so fun.
You and Will can reconnect.
Nik and I can leave
the apartment for once.
Wha Do you ha
- I mean, stop.
- [chuckles] Sorry.
[Haley chuckles]
So? What do you think?
- Yeah, whatever.
- Yes! Yes!
No, I think a night out
sounds pretty fantastic.
- Perfect. I'll make a res.
- Yeah. Okay.
Now, I need you to actually tell me
because you keep talking about it.
How good is the sex?
[exhales]
- I regret asking, immediately.
- [laughs]
- Let's just go.
- Okay.
[indistinct chatter]
[rock music playing faintly over speakers]
I'm gonna buy a settlement.
Another settlement, that is.
You can't build a settlement.
Those are Kiley's roads.
So?
So you can't build a settlement
that's not connected to your own roads.
The rules say
The rules are meant to be broken,
'cause this is the Wild West.
Unless, of course, you're afraid
to go rogue. Scared of a little danger?
I'm not scared. That's cheating.
Scared to play the right way,
in case you don't win?
I didn't take you for such a prude.
I didn't take you for such a coward,
Colorado. And I'm not a prude.
Sure. Sure you're not.
But this is fair game, right?
Like anyone's looking at you
as the gold standard for fair.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Erin] Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Is he flirting with her?
[Olivia] What?
Cole hooks up with everyone.
Who's he hooking up with?
I I don't know.
I mean, I thought
Aren't you guys just,
like, hanging out, like always?
No.
I mean
I mean, I don't know.
Whatever.
- Hey, babe.
- Hayles, what are you doing here?
Oh, I was just trying
to get in with the sexy bartender.
I heard he's quite a hot ticket.
I think we can arrange that.
I brought dinner.
Oh, I'm so sorry. We're swamped right now,
and I have inventory tonight.
I thought I mentioned it.
[Haley] No, no, you totally did.
Dinner is for you, not for us.
Thought you could use
a break from bar food.
You are a godsend.
I swear, I can't have
another zucchini fry for the rest of ever.
Yeah, I get it.
Well, there's no zucchini in the pad thai.
I promise.
- I triple-checked.
- Great.
Also, um,
I was wondering
if you had any plans Saturday night.
Oh, I have a shift.
Right.
What did you have in mind?
Nik and Tara invited us on a double date.
I know it's super last minute.
I just thought with the last few weeks
being what they were,
I thought I don't know. [chuckles]
- So, it's dinner?
- [Hayley] Yeah. Yeah.
They do this, um, date-night thing
where they don't talk about school.
It's this Lockwood restaurant.
And we'd get dressed up.
And honestly, their sex is great.
Wait. What?
I think this could be really good for us.
No distractions.
Just fun with friends.
I think we could use some of that,
you know?
Let's do it.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
I mean, I'm not all business all the time.
And who would I be
to say no to my sexy fiancée?
I know, right?
So it's a date, then.
Oh, yeah, it's a date.
Yeah.
[knock on door]
- [Jackie] Come in.
- [door opens]
[sighs]
I had no idea you were so competitive.
I have reading to do,
so unless you have a point
If I had known beating you
was gonna be this fun,
I would've played
your dorky game a long time ago.
First of all, you didn't beat me.
And second of all,
you didn't seem to think it was dorky
when you were bragging about ore supplies.
And third of all, just because
I want to actually follow the rules
doesn't mean I'm super competitive.
Just means I believe in right and wrong.
[scoffs]
What are you talking about?
I believe in right and wrong.
Oh, really? Would Paige agree with you?
I don't know what you mean.
Your secret is out, Cole.
I know you stole Paige from Alex,
so stop acting all high-and-mighty.
[somber music playing]
Okay, first of all, you don't know
what you're talking about.
Second of all, I didn't steal anyone.
And third of all,
if anyone acts high-and-mighty, it's you.
Excuse me?
You walk around here
like you're some saint or something,
accusing me of cheating.
But aren't you the one
with me by the fire one day
and then making out with Alex the next?
Wait. I forgot.
You're totally happy with him, right?
I may flirt around a bit,
but at least I'm honest about it.
The only one pretending
to be something they're not is you.
[door closes]
[horse whinnies]
[rooster crows]
[Mato] Jeez, you're trying to kill me?
I'm not used to
those Walter breakfasts anymore.
I may have to go to the gym later.
You know, if you put in a full day of work
here at the farm, you could skip the gym.
[scoffs] Rather you than me.
[chuckles]
[sighs] Well, I gotta get going.
- Thank you for breakfast.
- Sure.
Hey, Mato.
Hang on a second.
Um [clears throat]
[horse nickers]
Yeah, I lied to you before
about the ranch. We're not doing well.
We are drowning.
- How many months behind are you?
- Eight.
[sighs]
[somber music playing]
- I don't know how I let it get this bad.
- Hey, you didn't do anything wrong.
There's lots of places
going through the same issues.
- Stan mentioned something, but
- But nothing. This is not your fault.
It's just life.
You know, I went down
and talked to Daryl at the bank.
I even made a couple of phone calls
to try to pick up a graveyard shift.
- What?
- The dairy, the mill.
- You can't do that.
- I gotta do something.
[sighs]
Hey, um
You think there's any way that you could
Damn it.
- [Mato] George, I'm sorry.
- Forget I said anything.
You know I would lend you every dime
I have without a second thought.
But I just helped out Stan
and the Youngbloods' place.
- I don't have anything left.
- I understand.
I shouldn't have said anything.
- Just forget it.
- George, doesn't mean I'm not gonna help.
Let me think about it, okay?
- We'll figure something out.
- No, it's gonna work out.
We'll be good.
Come here.
- I appreciate you.
- [Mato] Love you, brother. Okay?
[indistinct chatter]
- Hey.
- Hey. What's up?
Um, I was just wondering
if you've heard any cool music lately.
Oh.
Uh, sorry, I haven't got
a chance to listen yet.
Oh. No. No no pressure. Um
It's been like a day,
so, you know, you're busy.
You're It's no biggie.
But I'll catch you later.
You're going to the bonfire, right?
Totally.
[bright music playing]
[students chattering]
What happened to chill, Nathan? Be chill.
[upbeat music playing on radio]
[tools whirring]
Hey, you wanted to see me?
I was about to get on the floor.
Yeah, I do.
Something's been up the past few weeks.
You've been distracted.
Late for work. Come on.
You're making mistakes
you don't normally make.
Jeez, Tony. You're killing me.
How much trouble am I in?
[Tony] Just come on in here.
Look at this.
You forgot to put the top up.
Raccoons got into Mr. Tan's convertible,
ripped it up.
Sorry, Tony.
Look, I thought I'd double-checked.
- I can call him, and I'll make it right.
- I already talked to him.
He was very understanding,
as long as we take care of the damage,
which is coming out of your paycheck,
by the way.
[somber music playing]
Cole, look at me.
I don't need to know
what's going on with you,
but you need to pull your act together.
Understood?
- Understood?
- Yes. Understood.
Good. Now get on the floor.
Got a couple of engines
you need to look at.
[tool whirs]
"Love looks not with the eyes
but with the mind."
No, no, no.
[sighs]
"Love looks not with the eyes
but with the mind."
Hey. Hey. Sorry. I'm sorry I'm late.
Hey. It's okay.
Thank you for helping me
with this Juilliard application.
I would love
to get into their summer program.
No, I, um I wanna help.
There's so many things
I didn't know how to do when I moved here.
You know, like, how to muck out a stall
or make up excuses
for why I can't muck out a stall.
But this is something
that I can help you with.
So just let me put
my fancy school skills to use. Okay?
[pensive music playing]
No. No, come on, guys.
- Find another ride.
- Come on, Cole.
I mean, things are
just starting to get good with Skylar.
I wrote him a song,
and he hasn't said anything about it yet.
Today, I was so weird.
I could not have been less chill
Okay! Okay. Fine.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, this is my jam.
[rap music playing on radio]
You can't be serious.
Okay, yeah, I'll just ask Dad to take us.
I'm sure he'd be cool
with the keg and the beers.
Do any of you have friends?
Why do we need friends when we have
such a sweet brother like you?
- Dude, please, just one time.
- You know the rules. In the back.
One day I'll be the oldest,
and you all can bite me.
You won't be the oldest.
That's not how age works.

just plant the seed

You know what, Alex?
I know about you, Paige, and Cole.
Whoa, wait. What?
- Who told you?
- Why didn't you?
Just tell me this.
The PDA?
This this whole relationship.
Are you interested in me?
Or is this about getting back at Cole?
[Alex] Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
[heartfelt music playing]
Maybe I got carried away with Cole.
And I definitely
should've told you about Paige.
Why didn't you?
Because because I was embarrassed.
Because I go to bonfires
to play beer pong
and you're from the Upper West Side
and I'm into fantasy novels.
And you're so far out of my league
it's not even funny.
Alex, you know I don't care
about any of that.
I know that. I do. It's just
It's just sometimes
it's really hard to believe it.
Hey, that's not an excuse.
I promise you.
The way I feel about you
has nothing to do with my brother
and nothing to do with Paige.
Okay?
Okay.
[heartfelt music playing]
- Who wants to play beer pong?
- [Grace] Definitely me.
Wait. How's your aim?
How's perfect?
[chuckles]
Told you.
- Do you wanna play
- Kiley, wanna be with me?
Yeah, I'm down.
- Then she jumps off the bed.
- I did not jump. That's not true.
- And the lizard goes flying.
- It was off the love seat.
[Nikhil] It was the first time
I ever heard her curse.
[Tara] That is not true. I'm an angel.
- Hey, babe.
- Hmm?
Everything okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
Just sending one last
Done. Sorry.
Okay. All good.
- So
- Are you spying on me?
Dean?
What? Do you work here?
- Actually
- [Will] Wait.
I knew this place looked familiar.
Guys, this is Dean. We were
in the same business class freshman year.
Dean, this is Nik,
Tara, and my fiancée, Hayley.
- [Dean] Fiancée. Hayley.
- Yes.
Such a pleasure to meet you.
Nice to meet you all.
- How are you enjoying everything?
- Oh, it is divine, honestly.
Oh, so good. We love it.
Thank you.
It's been quite the labor of love.
- So this is yours?
- Yeah.
Really?
Dean used to talk all the time
about this restaurant
he was gonna open.
I mean, down to the chandeliers.
[Dean laughs]
Do you have a second?
- Yeah. Of course.
- Pull up a chair.
- I own the place.
- [Will] Yeah.
[Nikhil] This place is so impressive.
You say that now. Did you see
the hoops we had to jump through?
What kind of hoops?
Well, the whole concept is that everything
is organic, free-range, and seasonal.
So it took a minute
to find the right suppliers.
Then, two weeks before opening,
our head chef quits.
- Oh no.
- [Dean] Yeah.
I had to fly out to Milan
to persuade Paulo to join us.
- I'll bring him out. You'll love him.
- What? [chuckles]
[Dean] We get our wine from
this organic biodiverse vineyard in Italy.
It takes forever to clear customs.
The import duties are way more
than I expected, and
[chuckles]
- And I'm boring you.
- Oh God, no. No, no, of course not.
- Not at all.
- Sorry.
[Dean] Yeah, thanks.
Just give me one second, y'all.
Please, enjoy.
Thank you so much.
You know, Hayley and I are
in the restaurant business ourselves.
Well, temporarily, actually.
[Dean] Really?
I don't remember
you mentioning anything before.
I didn't. [chuckles]
It's new, actually,
and a bit overwhelming.
But I mean, look at this place.
If we could make ours even half
of what this is, it would all be worth it.
I can show you around if you want.
Take a look behind the scenes.
As long as your fiancée
doesn't mind if I steal you.
No. No, no, sorry.
Yeah, of course. Go have fun.
- Is that okay?
- Yes.
- Awesome. Yeah.
- [Dean] Amazing.
- I will be right back.
- Okay.
Yeah. Okay. [chuckles]
[bittersweet music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[teens] Oh!
I'll be right back, okay?
[pop music playing over speakers]
I know. I'm just warming up.
Hey.
Hi.
Uh, listen. I wanted to talk to you
about the game the other night.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm really sorry about Cole.
He ruins everything, so
Cole didn't bother me.
- Oh, yeah?
- You did.
[somber music playing]
The other night was
supposed to be about me and you.
And you brought Jackie along again.
Do you not like Jackie?
Oh my God. It's not about Jackie.
I miss hanging out.
Okay? Just just us two.
You're so caught up in her.
I feel like I barely see you anymore.
I I I
I'm sorry. I didn't realize.
Yeah, I know you didn't.
Sorry for your loss.
Who knew Grace was
such a killer at beer pong?
Beer pong's not really my thing.
So, am I your thing?
'Cause at first, you act into me,
and now you don't seem so into me. So
You wrote me a song.
- Okay.
- Dude, come on.
We're not even dating.
You have to know that's too intense.
No, I don't know that.
So, you were
What? Just gonna ghost me?
If I hadn't asked,
would you've even mentioned the song?
Right.
You know
[scoffs]it's not lame that I like you.
Or that I like you and I told you.
If you can't handle that,
that's your issue.
But I'm not gonna feel bad
for being honest just because you're not.
[sighs]
[Kiley clears throat]
How much of that did you hear?
A bit more than nothing.
Well, I'm right.
Aren't I?
Maybe.
It's kind of nice to have someone
who cares so much about you.
I wouldn't walk away from that so easily.
[sighs]
[cheering]
- Boo!
- Hey, Jackie and I got next game, okay?
Hey, good luck this round.
But I'm guessing next game goes to me.
- Are you serious right now?
- I was just talking about beer pong.
- Just because you're jealous
- You think I'm jealous of you?
Yeah, right.
You know what, Cole?
Why don't you just run back
to Erin or Paige or Olivia
and leave me and Jackie out of it?
- Okay?
- Olivia?
Yeah, I don't think I will.
Matter of fact, I don't think
I have to do anything because
if I just wait long enough,
I think they'll
all come to me anyway, right?
[teens] Oh!
[Jackie] Alex.
What are you doing?
Something I should've done
a long time ago.
Remember when you said
it wasn't about Paige?
I guess that's not the case, huh?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Okay.
Jackie, wait.
- Erin
- [Erin] No, I don't wanna hear it, Cole.
I spent all this time worried
about you and Jackie,
how much time you spend together
and seem to like her.
- What does it matter? She's with Alex.
- Yeah, I know that. Do you?
I could handle the flirting
and the casual hookups.
We had an understanding,
and I was fine with that.
But you hooked up with Olivia?
My best friend.
It's over.
We're done. For good.
- Erin.
- Oh, absolutely not.
I'm done!
With all of this. With both of you.
[girl] That's totally the worst.
[somber music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Danny] Here.
- Let's go.
- [Cole] Thanks.
I'm starving.
I didn't get a chance to eat.
How cool is that place, though?
And it's exactly the vibe
I've been going for.
And Dean.
I mean, I can't believe
he actually did it.
How great was that place?
Yeah, pretty great.
[Will] You okay?
- Are you really asking me that?
- Yes.
[Hayley] Okay.
Well, then, no, I am not okay.
I am mad.
I am very, very mad.
- Please tell me this is not about
- About work?
We were supposed to have
one night without it, just one.
But instead, that is
literally all you talked about.
- It's not all I talked about.
- Mmm.
It's not my fault Dean came over. Okay?
What was I supposed to do,
just ignore him?
No, of course not.
But you did not have to go
on a two-hour tour.
I don't understand why we keep having
this conversation. I mean,
I like working at the Lark.
I'm good at it.
Look, that would be fine
if it wasn't taking over everything.
- Your obsession with this job now is
- [Will] It's not an obsession.
I'm doing this for us, for our future.
What's wrong with that?
Babe, okay. What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with wanting a better life?
I'll tell you what's wrong with it.
That is not the life that I want.
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you ashamed of me or something?
Is a café not good enough for you?
Don't do that.
Please, do not do that.
Look, I went to Berkeley to
Got it. So I'm not smart enough for you.
Wow.
[scoffs] Okay.
I was saying that I went
to Berkeley to be that person.
The person who works all hours of the day
and hardly sees their friends
and skips parties to make deadlines.
But then I came here, and I realized
that not everybody lives that way.
That you don't have to live that way.
Don't make it seem like
I'm some weird workaholic, okay?
I'm trying to make something of myself!
And instead of supporting me
or maybe being proud of me,
it's like you resent me for it.
I don't resent you.
I just
Will, we're 25.
I wanna be 25.
I wanna go on a road trip.
I wanna stay up all night dancing
or learn French. I don't know.
I'm not ready to skip this part.
It's not worth it to me.
Well, it is to me.
[solemn music playing]
Wow, okay.
I thought this was just, like,
a small bump that we're gonna get over
and just gonna fix it. But it's it's
it's more than that.
What are you saying?
We want different things, Will.
You have to see that.
I want you.
When I saw you with Dean tonight
that is the happiest
I've seen you in months.
I cannot be the person
that takes that from you.
But I can't just give in either.
Okay? That's not good for us,
not in the long run.
This isn't
This isn't what's supposed to happen.
Look. Maybe it wasn't the
the money or the job
or the wedding that was the problem.
Maybe it's us.
[door opens]
Hi. Did you guys have fun Whoa.
Cole, what happened?
You should see the other guy.
Hang on. Hang on. Whoa.
What happened to your brother?
- [door closes]
- Hello?
Uh, I plead twin.
I plead no snitching.
Seriously?
- Someone's gotta tell me something.
- Hey, guys.
- Can you give your mom and I a second.
- [Katherine] Are you okay? Honey.
[gasps]
Mato just called.
He thinks he has a solution for us.
Well, that sounds fantastic.
Mmm.
Why do you seem like
you don't think it's fantastic?
Because he's not offering us a loan.
Okay.
He's got a developer friend
who wants to buy our land.
[sighs]
Sorry. I know this is your bathroom.
I was just trying
to avoid another encounter.
It's fine.
Done in a sec.
About before
Can we just not?
There's no point
in cleaning just one side of it.
Here.
Ow.
Hold still.
So you wanna tell me why he hit you?
Cole.
Jackie.
I think I can take it from here.
Actually, I think I can take it from here.
Thanks, Jackie.
Oh.
Cole, honey.
This area around the eye,
it's really delicate.
So you gotta treat it just right.
Otherwise, it's not gonna heal properly,
and it could scar.
And those kinds of scars
Those wounds, they're not so easy to hide.
Or easy to fix.
Do you know what I'm saying?
I don't know if it's that easy this time.
