Greek s01e08 Episode Script

Previously Greek: I've been through an awful lot, in the past year.
And, sometimes, it's not enough.
Evan, are you about to Your letters.
Casey got lavaliered by Evan.
That was supposed to be a secret.
I thought this was just a fling.
I realize that I really like you.
And I don't know what that means.
I would like to find out.
Travis isn't exactly quality glue.
You need to dump him.
But I thought everyone liked Travis.
It doesn't matter what your sisters want or what I think.
No, you love who you want to love.
If that's a problem, you just keep your private life private.
Friends tell each other the truth.
What you did to me sucks.
Sometimes you outgrow the people you love.
Uh! I saw that first.
Oh, look, going after something else that's mine.
It must be Monday.
It's tough to avoid when you think everything is yours.
Is it? Speaking of yours.
Is that Jen K.
wearing your skirt? Now, to prepare you.
I was talking to this girl in my Spanish class.
And she says she knows this guy who worked on "Laguna Beach" second season, and he says that it's not really real, which, if you think about it, makes a little bit of sense.
Reality just isn't that good.
What do you think? Whatever.
Ash, I know breaking up sucks.
You and Travis had a long history.
But it'll help if you just get your mind off things.
Forget about him.
I'm fine.
So, National just called asking about our philanthropy hours, which we have very few of, thanks to an ex-sister/philanthropy chair named Libby.
Yeah, the last thing we need is National on our backs.
The good news is Libby did set something up with an after-school program called the Bible Bunch.
The bad news is she didn't follow through, and we need to set something up pronto.
No worries.
The dynamic duo are on the case.
Thank you.
I can't help.
You can do this.
It's just what you need to get over Travis.
You handle wardrobe.
Think charitable, non-profit.
I'll call Bible Bunch, set up a meeting - No, really.
I can't.
I have a paper to write, a project.
I'm also growing out my bangs, which requires extra sleep.
But I need you.
And it will take your mind off things.
Come on.
We're Mary-Kate and Ashley.
Sorry, I just have a lot going on right now.
Uh-oh, looks like Mary-Kate lost her Ashley.
Oh, basic scuba.
That'd be fun.
Or not.
- It's your elective.
It could be our elective course.
Do you think we should take a class together next semester? Why didn't I think of that? - I don't know.
You're such a smart guy though.
I bet you're full of good ideas.
My boyiend from high school never thought of anything like that.
Your high school boyfriend? Grady.
He never initiated, especially in the romance department.
Like what? Like our first date, our first kiss.
Ignore it.
You were saying? Well, I was the one who was always pushing things forward.
You know, and then finally I broke up with him.
Right, not like ours where we held hands, we kissed the first night.
Exactly.
It's funny because before you mentioned it, I was thinking we should take a class together.
Who is SkynyrdAngel501? Dale, I'm right here.
I promised I'd leave you guys alone until 10:00, but look, here it is 10:20.
I do not appreciate you taking advantage of my good nature.
My interpretation was that you'd actually leave the room.
There's two names on that door.
Go read 'em.
- It's fine.
I actually have to meet somebody downstairs.
Will you walk me to class in the morning? I was just gonna suggest that.
Yes, I was going to suggest that.
Stop IM-ing me.
GREEK 1X08 "Separation Anxiety" You're cleaning? - The house is a mess, spitter.
Have you seen the surface build-up? There's mold growing on mold.
It never bothered you before.
Oh, the keg explosion of '06.
Good-bye, old friend.
I actually came to get your advice on something.
I think I'm ready to use the L-word with Jen.
That's a pretty bold move.
What makes you think she's a lesbian? And is that a deal-breaker for you? Not that L-word.
I want to tell her I love her.
Look, if you need to say "I love you," call your mom.
All right, listen, young Padawan.
Love was invented by women to rob men of their reason for living and their manhood.
Love is a vicious trap.
It's an e-ticket ride straight to the depths of hell.
It can't be that bad.
- Yeah, until it's over.
And you're curled up with a pint of ice cream watching "Never Been Kissed" and writing in your journal.
So just kick back, relax.
Don't ruin everything by making it all serious and mushy.
You're wrong.
I need to make a move, a bold move.
Standing still's the worst thing I can do.
You're defying the master? Be careful, spitter.
You remember what happened to Anakin.
Cap, I'm ready.
Yeah, but you've only been dating her for three weeks.
When you know, you know.
And I'm gonna tell her.
My big bro's gonna be happy for me.
Well, I'm worried for you.
Does that count? Excuse me.
Um, I'm looking for the director of the after-school program.
That'd be me.
Hi.
Casey Cartwright, Zeta Beta.
I'm here about volunteering.
- Rusty's sister? I'm his roommate, Dale Kettlewell.
You're the confederate flag guy.
Thank you.
Boy, you don't look anything like your brother.
Thank you.
I, uh, I pretty much gave up on you guys after I never heard back from Libby.
Let me assure you, that is not the Zeta Beta way.
I just chalked it up to the unreliability of organizations whose sole purpose seems to be personal pleasure, bodily self-destruciton, and the relinquishment of all virtue.
So what's a nice girl like you doing in a place like that? Oh, our sorority is all about philanthropy.
How can we help you all? Immediately? Well, let's see, uh, the basketball court needs repainting.
Uh, the gym floor needs waxing.
You could hose bird feces off the building exterior with a pressure washer.
It's more fun than it sounds.
So many to choose from.
This is a great room.
It'd be perfect for a party.
Or I know, a show.
A show.
Something for the kids.
We have the perfect thing.
It's called "Leading A Good Life.
" it is a catchy title.
It sounds positive.
Oh, it is.
It's an "edu-taining" musical that covers everything from dental hygiene to menopause.
Well, these kids could use some old-fashioned values.
It would be perfect.
I don't know.
The Bible Bunch kids are serious at-risk youths.
I mean, some of them are gang members.
Some are even atheists.
All right, I mean Let's Yeah, let's give it a shot.
Yes! Amen.
It was nice to meet you.
Yeah, you too.
Waiting for Godot? More like, waiting to go home.
I didn't think it was that bad.
What? You liked it? No.
I thought it was kinda slow and a little pretentious, but at least we tried something new.
Why can't we do something old that we know is fun? Like bowling? Again? Look, you can only enjoy it so many times before you start to understand why it's not a real sport.
- Okay.
Okay, this is dumb.
Go grab some ice cream? Actually I'm pretty beat.
You know, and I got that chem lab in the morning.
So Sure.
Right.
Probably wouldn't be bad to get a decent night's sleep.
Yeah.
I'll see ya later.
Ash, you should have been there.
The outfit worked like a charm.
And he loves "Leading A Good Life.
" Great.
You think Frannie'll be Marie Antoinette again? I need to find a replacement for the fuzzy bunny.
Any ideas? Are you listening to me? Yep! Fuzzy bunny.
G'night.
If you're not gonna help with the show, the least you can do is talk to me about it when I come home.
Is that too much to ask? I had a hard day too.
But you didn't ask me about that, did you? Right, sorry.
How are those bangs coming? Okay, I've apologized, like, 50 times for being part of the anti-Travis mob.
Even though I still think dumping him was the right decision.
Now, you need to stop moping and move on.
It's not about travis.
This is about you not supporting me.
I am supporting you by supporting what's best for you.
What's best? According to who? Maybe you're just too close to the situation to have a healthy perspective.
Maybe you don't know everything.
Look, I did what everybody else wanted me to do about Travis.
At least let me feel how I wanna feel afterwards.
Fine, I mean, if you wanna brood and withdraw and blame me.
Where are you going? I'm moving on.
If you find my behavior so annoying then I'll spare us both and sleep downstairs.
Fine? - Fine! Jen, I love Chimichangas.
Have you ever noticed how the majority of the dishes are made from the same three ingredients? Every dish is meat, cheese, and tortilla.
I know! It's in everything.
Burritos, tacos, enchiladas.
It's all the same basic combo.
Did you do something with your hair? What? No.
Well, I really love It.
I Thanks.
Anywho, so I used to work at this little mexican restaurant for, like, a week.
And they had five or six big pots on the stove.
And no matter what you order, it came out of those pots.
That's crazy.
I know, and there was a sauce for the taco I love you.
Thank you.
Hey! What the hell are you doing? Sorry, I didn't expect anyone to be sleeping on the couch.
Three-second rule.
What are you doing down here? Don't tell anyone, but the cook stashes cheesaritos for me behind the paper towels in the pantry.
It's a little trick I learned in my father's townhouse.
He always said fat was a bad photo op.
I guess that explains why the cook's fingers are always slightly orange.
I just thought it was some weird skin disease.
My dad said that about our cook too.
So why are you down here? I couldn't sleep.
Was that before or after your gigantic fight with Casey? I'm right next door.
It wasn't a fight.
It was a disagreement.
She just always thinks she knows how to manage my life.
And a lot of the time, she does.
No, I get it.
Friends fight.
What? - I just never thought of you as a person with Friends.
I have several.
Like my best friend in D.
C.
She and I used to fight constantly.
We always made up though.
I really miss her now.
Would you prefer I drop them on the ground first? No.
Cap? In here, spitter.
You're still cleaning? Dirt works 24-7.
So my dinner with Jen K.
was a disaster.
I'm not going to say, "I told you so" but you completely screwed up by not taking my advice, didn't you? You were right.
It was horrible.
I said it, and she thanked me.
I mean, do you say, "you're welcome" to something like that? Then we just sat there for the next hour.
Eatin' dinner, complete awkward silence.
Well, at least she's polite.
Maybe it'll just blow over, and she won't even notice.
Maybe I just need a break from girls for a while.
Well, your instincts aren't all bad.
I have a surefire way to do that, if you can trust me.
I'll never doubt you again.
Good.
Then it's off to The lunch buffet.
Here's your toothbrush.
Why does it taste like corn chips and feet? Don't you worry about that.
You just worry about what you're gonna order at the lunch buffet.
No! - Ah! I have class! - Come after.
Send out the bat signal to all interested parties.
At least he stopped cleaning.
Good job.
- Wait! What's the lunch buffet? Caitlin will be playing the role of dental floss.
Eva, you will be the pine cone.
And frannie will direct and embody the beautiful, yet powerful, Marie Antoinette.
I know, right? Actress, director Double threat.
So, Case, uh, what about you and Ashleigh? Actually, Ashleigh seems to have a lot of stuff going on right now.
I thought Jen K.
Could sub in.
Sub in for Ashleigh? Are you okay with that, Ash? It's fine.
I'd prefer a dance with a little more freedom anyways, so I'd love to pair up with a new partner.
Like who? Rebecca.
Rebecca who? We have some amazing ideas for the sweet tooth number.
Maybe we'll dress up as cupcakes.
You have the body for it.
Let's get to work.
Okay, great.
Yay.
Hey.
Uh, you guys haven't seen Heath, have you? I just need some notes from class.
I haven't seen him since yesterday.
Oh, I'll just get the notes later then.
Hey, you care to join us for lunch? We're going to get our minds off girls.
All I know is "lunch buffet.
" Man's gotta eat, right? Uh, sure.
Why not? Welcome to the second happiest place on earth.
Let me show you guys around.
You expect a strip club would be bigger Cleaner.
I can't say I've had too many expectations on the subject.
This is the lunch buffet.
Complimentary I might add.
Huh.
They serve casserole.
No, no, those are buffalo wings.
Minced meat pie? Warm taco meat.
- Okay, enough of "Name That Tray.
" what, you don't like tacos? Uh, that, and I'm about to puke.
Don't worry.
All right? The food gets better after a few rounds.
Huh? Fake.
Fake.
Oh, I bet she has back problems.
Look where she's puttin' those bills.
Which'll go right back into circulation.
You know, by the enf of the week, it could end up under some kid's pillow from the tooth fairy.
Lunch is on me today, guys.
Three beers.
What do you guys want? Uh Coke.
Uh, excuse me, miss, do you, uh Do you take student health insurance? Yes, I do.
How'd you get wrangled into this? What's the worst thing you can imagine? This.
Try telling your girlfriend "I love you," and getting a "thank you" back.
Ouch.
Hey, man, don't Don't panic, you know.
I'm having trouble with my he-friend too.
That's dating.
It's all about communication.
Maybe I should call her.
Hmm, face-to-face is usually better in these situations.
She said, "thank you" to my face.
Right.
Probably better to call.
Hello? Rusty? Say something! - Rusty? I feel like we could have planned that better.
In less than 24 hours I went from boyfriend to moron to stalker.
Are you okay? Just scouting out the other acts.
Maybe I should just stand, and you could dance around me.
Trust me, you'll be fine.
There's a great dancer in all of us.
Yeah, buried deeper in some than others.
But they don't have me as a teacher.
All right.
Let's go.
I'm okay.
Um, I don't want to put any pressure on you, but the show is tomorrow.
I know.
I'm just a little preoccupied.
Rusty said "I love you.
" Aww.
Oh.
After three weeks? What did you say? Thank you.
At least you were polite.
You don't feel the same way? - I don't know.
I mean, he just kind of took me by surprise, you know? Just know Rusty's new to all this.
I was just in the neighborhood.
I thought I'd come by and see how our show's doing.
Really, really well.
Oh, you.
Hello.
I'm just gonna go Away.
Well, uh Thanks for stopping by.
Oh, um, this is for you.
It's just some guidelines I typed up last night.
You know, content control.
"All lyrics should be printed and presented prior "to performance for approval.
"Please ensure there is no nudity during any part of the performance.
"Or implied intercourse.
"Side-breast and buttocks crack is also prohibited.
"Displays of anti-social behavior, gang activity, "vulgarity, or the occult are prohibited.
" Okay See next page.
I'm sure we can handle this.
Great.
Um, oh, also, uh, one more thing, I-I have great news.
Uh, I want my band to play.
You have a band.
We call ourselves "Darwin Lied.
" That I'm sure I'm sure is awesome, but we can't break the continuity of the show.
See, the dental hygiene section, it It comes before table manners.
- Oh, well, we'll come on afterwards.
You know.
Really go out with a bang.
Our show is more of a sunny experience.
Well, I admit "Darwin Lied" has a punishing sound, but we're pretty positive too.
They're my purity pledge brothers.
Hey, maybe Maybe you can work the lights.
You know, maybe we'll just scrap the whole show, just use the band.
Okay.
I guess you're in.
Great.
Trust me, you have no idea how hard we rock.
Good to see Your first lap dance.
I remember when Egyptian Joe treated me to my first, and 17 through 20th.
Do you like? Huh? She had Jen K.
's watch.
Spitter, what possessed you to ignore my advice? Have I ever led you afoul, like, really afoul? Like, of the law? I did it because of a law.
- Which one? And together we'll fight it.
Newton's first law of motion.
It deals with inertia.
In an isolated system, a body at rest Your love life Will remain at rest unless disturbed by an unbalanced force, you and your L-word.
You were a physics major for a while.
Bingo.
Yeah, I thought she was telling me if I didn't take control of the relationship and keep it moving forward, then I'd lose her.
Okay.
Relax.
You see how we make rash decisions when we disregard medical advice? What you need is more lap dances, stat! Hey, should we get a lap dance? You know, just to say we experimented through college? What are you doing here? Rusty invited me.
Don't worry, I'll try not to hit on you too hard in front of your brothers.
Relax.
It's fun.
- It's not that.
It's, um After I saw you last night, I met this guy.
We hooked up.
With who? It doesn't matter.
I was I was mad at you.
It was stupid.
It'll never happen again.
No.
It won't.
I'm leavin'.
Why? What's wrong? Relationships suck.
Wait! What Beav, uh, lunch today was great.
Time to round 'em up.
Let's go.
I think Cappie's gonna be a while.
Did you finish it already? Yeah! So it looks like your plan's working.
Casey's definitely sitting up and taking notice.
Yep.
Is it just me, or is there, like, this weird vortex in this house? Casey's at the center of it, and we're all defined by our relationship to her.
You're the sidekick.
I'm Satan.
Uh, I think you've done plenty to earn the Satan name.
But that's not all I am.
Any more than all you are is her sidekick.
Could we please not use that term? Exactly.
We should be defing our own terms.
Casey's still my friend.
I just don't want her to keep seeing me as What you said.
- Exactly.
Look, just 'cause you and I shared a snack food and a dance doesn't mean we're friends.
But we don't have to be enemies either.
Just because of who we are to Casey.
For what it's worth, I was appalled by the way our sisters, Casey included, ganged up on you to dump Travis.
Why would you care? Because I've seen it before.
My dad almost divorced my mom because she didn't poll well.
But there was a four percent margin of error, so they're still together.
They're bringing the check now, so we can go home.
We are home.
We got everything we need right here.
Not everything.
You still hung up on that little minx? After all this? I had a little minx once.
She was the fairest of all the forest creatures.
But I let her get away.
Bad cappie.
All this and the cleaning, that was about a girl? We better get going.
No, no.
I'm not leaving! I can I can sleep in the booth.
I can live off the casserole, and I'll dance on the stage to work off the casserole.
It's been nice knowing you, spitter.
Take care.
You and your family.
Oh! There's something definitely wrong with him.
He's fine.
I hear you, but drunk and sloppy Cappie is way better than mop and scrub cappie.
Your friend's credit card was rejected.
I hope for your sake that you've got some cash.
$275? He said he was buyin'.
None of you have any money to cover Cappie? Cap.
Cappie! Well, lucky for you I am an amazing boyfriend.
Yeah, by the way, why couldn't Ashleigh play the lizard? Yeah, we're kinda in a fight.
She's bummed about her break-up with Travis, and she's taking it out on me because I didn't like him.
So I thought I'd give her some space.
And she said thank you by pairing with Rebecca, which is fine by me.
I'm not her punching bag.
Yeah, you seem fine.
- Yeah.
So if Ashleigh asked you to dump me, would you do it? I It wasn't just me.
It was Frannie and the standards board too.
Yeah, but you know how much your opinion matters to her.
She's been your biggest fan since, like, freshman year.
During rush I was actually close to taking a bid at Tri-Pi, and Ashleigh found out that one of the girls hated me and was gonna ding me out two weeks later, and she keyed the girl's car.
Well, you never told me that.
Someone keyed my car this rush.
But like I was saying, we totally know each other.
We share the same opinions and feelings about stuff.
We were always so in sync.
Now it's all weird.
No, listen, listen, if you're that much in sync, then I'm sure she feels the exact same way.
Yeah, she probably misses you too.
Yeah, that's you.
Hello? Whoo! Check out the sexy librarian.
Ooh, I'd like to check you out and get a late fee.
I'm not a stripper.
Good work, guys.
Save us, wonder woman.
It's for "Leading A Good Life.
" - Yeah, I bet it is.
Guys.
My sister.
You want me to bail you dorks out or not? Yes.
Please.
Your girlfriend doesn't say "I love you" after dating three weeks, and you end up in strip club? She told you? We're in a sority, not a secret society.
That's what we do.
What'd you guys do? Taser him? Come on.
Let's go.
That better be a 20, bro.
Yeah, yeah, right here, yeah.
He's messed up.
I think some girl dumped him or something.
This is so typical Cappie.
What are you not saying? Um, cappie and I may have revisited our history recently.
Things kind of escalated.
Escalated how? We kissed.
That's it.
It was a big, stupid lapse of judgment.
You're his minx.
His what? I thought it was over between you guys.
Just because we stopped dating, doesn't mean all the feelings were gone.
So you've been dancing around this for two years, and when he finally tells you how he feels, you dump him for Evan? Eh, surprising, right? - You led him on, Case.
He probably thought all he had to do was make his move.
And then when he finally opened up and said something monumental, you broke his heart.
Did you at least thank him? We weren't right for each other, and he knew it.
Evan and I have plans, goals, ambitions.
Cappie has Kappa Tau.
What about love? Do you love Evan? Of course I do.
But love isn't simple, Rusty.
And considering what you're going through right now, you of all people should appreciate that.
Hey, spitter.
- You're psychic? Waxed floors, remember? I know that depressed shuffle anywhere.
What's with this welt on my head? Did I enjoy it? Absolutely.
Although yesterday's excursion has opened my eyes to the perils of women.
It's just a bump, spitter.
No, I mean relationships.
They suck.
I never wanna go through what you did with Casey.
I think I missed something here.
She's the one who bailed us out and took us home.
She told me About you two.
I should have taken your advice in the first place.
But you were right, spitter.
I was wrong.
What about? Saying the L-word.
I said it, but I'm not even sure if I meant it.
At least you said it.
By the time I came clean to the pretty Cartwright, the Evan train had already left the station.
So how do you know when you mean it? I don't know.
I guess it's a kind of burning, itching sensation.
But, you know, in a good way.
So you think if you would have told Casey how you felt sooner, you two would be together? Maybe.
Maybe not.
Maybe she just would've said, "thank you.
" The point is, it's not some law or equation.
You can't predict the outcome.
Then why go through with it if all you know is if it doesn't work out, you'll be destroyed? Because what you get before it ends, no matter how it ends, can rock.
The truth is I wouldn't trade my time with Casey for anything.
Even a night with the naughty nurse? That would explain the stethoscope.
Two minutes! Let's go, ladies! I need Casey's eyebrow pencil.
It's the perfect color.
You know what? I'm fine, thanks.
Jen K, why aren't you dressed? Come on, everyone! Come on.
Please! Find that phone! Give me that! Who didn't turn off their phone? It's mine.
I turned it off.
Sorry.
Ok.
Let's go! We're on! Hey.
Hey.
You left without saying anything.
Probably better you didn't hear what I had to say.
I messed up.
I know.
We should have talked about it first.
Talk about it? Before you cheated on me? I'm not sure I even really cheated on you.
I mean, this isn't exactly a traditional courtship.
You always said you wanted to keep things loose.
So now you can be free to play the field.
If you want.
- Oh, yeah.
Totally.
Heath! I guess I'll see ya around.
Rusty? I don't love you.
What? I only said it because I wanted to prove that I wasn't like your ex.
That I could take the initiative in the romance department.
I just I took it a little too far.
So you don't love me? - No.
I mean, not yet.
Well, maybe I do.
I don't know.
I'm not sure.
Look, here's what I do know, I just I want an experience that I wouldn't trade anything for, and I want that experience to be with you.
Thank you.
Uh Me too With you.
Can you What the hell was this show? - I'm stuck.
Not all angels are in heaven.
This song's for you, Casey Cartwright.
There once was a young lad who dreamed of a girl with a pretty, pretty smell.
She forced him through the valley of a shadow of doubt, and their slumber felt like heaven.
But they woke up in hell Heathens be warned, you better listen to me, or it's fire and brimstone, for eternity.
Repent all you sinners, 'cause your life is at stake, you better pray the Lord, for your soul to take.
Heathens be warned, you better listen to me, or it's fire and brimstone, for eternity.
Repent all you sinners, 'cause your life is at stake, you better pray the Lord, for your soul to take.
Travis says he's sorry he had to cancel your visit to Providence next week, but he misses you A lot.
So now what? Now I apologize.
First for judging your love life.
I'm in no position to be judging or organizing anyone else's.
Do you wanna talk about it? Is it that bad? No, Ash, for once we need to talk about you.
We think alike so much, I just assumed that applied to everything.
I quit checking in on what you need.
That's the second apology I owe you.
Accepted.
I know you want what's best for me.
Yeah.
I missed my Mary-Kate.
I missed my Ashleigh.
I love The cottage cheese on the ceiling.
I love This song.
I love my comforter.
I think I might love you.
And we could talk I think I might too.
But the words would come out wrong, and there is no We can still move our relationship forward.
If you want to.
I'd love that.
And you're never gonna be the same, from this moment you'll rise to a height only gained by compromise, share the glimpse of a new beginning.
And now you've changed
