High (School) on Sex (2022) s01e08 Episode Script

1
Harmon High, I want to serve you.
This is not something you'll get
through on your own.
I won't be on my own.
You'll be here, right?
Who are you dating?
Is it that slut, Issa?
Do you prefer her over me?
Yes, fine!
Issa!
I think you should break it off with Gibo.
Why?
Are you jealous?
Are you really just messing with me?
You want to ruin my life?
Answer me!
I wonder where you're hiding…
Wes!
Help! Emergency!
Let's break up!
Yes, Aunt Margaux.
Thank you for remembering me.
Yes, ma'am.
We'll take care of Karla, okay?
Ciao!
Am I really stuck in this
hospital for today's video?
I've been called back here
over and over.
You were here earlier?
Yes! Aunt Carmi!
It's your honorary son speaking.
Yes, ma'am. Yes!
Overnight with Gibo?
Yes, yes! Okay, Auntie.
Love you. Bye!
And go. Spill.
Nothing. They were talking
then Karla just fainted.
Seriously?
Fine!
I said something I shouldn't
because Gibo's so clueless
he doesn't know he's being duped.
So he got angry at Karla
and yelled at her.
That's when Karla suddenly fainted.
Wes, I don't
Calm down. Calm down.
Shit! Is this on me? What the hell is
going on? Why'd she fall all of a sudden?
She's not the only one who fell, is she?
What about you?
Okay, we can't do anything anyway
because we can't go in there.
We won't be able to drink, eat, sleep.
So I suggest we get some
rest and get our strength back.
Okay? Let's just go.
Let's say goodbye.
Okay.
Gibo, we'll go ahead.
All right, come on.
Bye.
Bye. Take care.
Students, you all know very well
how we value life in this institution.
All forms of life.
Lord please forgive me,
I have one exception.
I hate
And you can quote me here
I hate rodents with a passion.
So whoever took that guinea pig,
if you could please return it this instant.
We don't want an infestation.
Lord, deliver us
Deliver me from this cursed vermin!
Whoever did this, better confess now.
Or not. I'm getting the CCTV checked
and I will find the culprit soon enough.
And I will make sure of that.
By the way,
our Foundation Day's
coming up! It's jubilation.
- Hurry up!
- I'm going as fast as I can.
It stinks!
You're so fussy.
Loop, it stinks, right?
I'm getting anxious.
I can't take this.
Okay, fine. We're gonna deal with it.
Yeah, and I can't have
a stinky locker!
I don't like this, bestie.
I said we'll deal with it.
So we're going to commit guinea-cide?
Not you, this person.
- Why me?
- Just do it.
After class. Clear?
Okay.
Let's go.
Wait, I need to lock it.
Hurry up!
Vanguard, we are pleased to announce
No, to confirm the expected,
give it up for our new
batch rep, Mavic Lagdameo!
Yeah!
Congrats!
Thanks, guys.
So, when's the victory party?
Let's wait for the official announcement.
Mads says she'll proclaim
the winner on Foundation Day.
Look your best, guys.
And by the way, congrats again, Mavic.
Thank you. Thanks, guys.
We did it!
High five!
Congrats!
Congrats! Congrats!
Super proud.
Luke, thank you.
You deserve it, Mavic.
Thank you.
Guys, congrats.
But since Mavic won,
we need to be consistent.
So now would be the best
time to discuss our future plans.
Right?
Karla. How are you?
How are you feeling?
I'm okay.
Good morning. We've identified
the reason behind your fainting spell,
why your anemia's getting worse,
and your low energy.
Ms. Sanchez, there is
a parasite in your body.
What?
Yes, but don't worry. I think
it's going to come out cute.
This is for confirmation.
It will probably be out of your system
in about six or seven months.
Doc, sorry. What are you saying?
And you must be the father.
- Doc, does that mean?
- Yes.
She's pregnant. Congratulations.
I'll leave you to it.
Are you sure it was taken?
Maybe it escaped?
The cage is missing, too, sister.
That's why you shouldn't
have experiments like that.
Stop.
Pause there.
Right there.
Isn't that them?
This one looks like
they're carrying something.
But it's blurry.
It could be a cage, right?
Who are they?
Suspicious.
They entered the building
after class hours.
Issa, have you seen any seniors that
stay behind aside from you and Gibo?
No, Mads.
But this one looks familiar.
I just can't remember
where I've seen him.
Sorry, Karla. I shouldn't
have been rough with you.
And don't worry, I'll face Auntie.
And your Papa.
I'll take responsbility.
You don't need to do that.
I need to.
And this time, you won't
be able to stop me, Karla.
Yes, I can.
Gibo, don't get ahead of yourself.
Why?
Karla, what's the matter?
Are you made of stone?
Are you a robot?
Why doesn't this seem
like a big deal to you?
Don't you know how major this is?
I'm missing a medium?
I think you're a size small.
I always keep an extra just in case.
For allowance.
Want some?
Crisis? Karla, what's
really going on with you?
Don’t ask. Something.
I'm just scared.
I'm scared that this time,
if I get it wrong,
nobody will be there to catch me.
Sorry.
But I can adjust for you.
I'm pushing you away
because I don't like you.
There's someone else I like.
Get it now?
How long have you known?
A while.
If it isn't mine, whose is it?
You'll find out soon.
He's on his way.
Why are you here?
This is my spot.
I was just joking, hey.
Sorry.
I just don't like crowded places.
Okay, you can crash here for now.
So, you still good?
I'm not sure.
I don't even remember
the last time I smiled.
No, I do. When I picked flowers for you.
From the neighbor.
And I barely escaped their dog.
No, no, I mean…
that was for a project.
Hunter, I already know.
And thank you, because I get
my strength from your letters.
Thanks for your neighbors' flowers, too.
For the record, are you
courting me or just showing off?
I don't know. I just found myself
going back to that memory.
When we were at the rooftop.
I keep wishing,
that I make you happy the way
you made me happy that time.
What about you, what's your wish?
I wish we find Cheesy soon.
Hang on, any updates on that?
We saw people wearing
matching hoodies in the CCTV.
But hello, everyone's twinning
and three-ning these days.
So it's not much of a lead.
Wait, check your IJ.
Just try it. Go on.
Go to Gia's page.
Okay, so she bought
the same brand of hoodie?
- So what?
- Not that.
Not that. Try her story.
Under Clique highlights.
Same hoodie!
I told you I was right.
Jude has it, too.
Excuse me?
Sir Lem?
Thank you for what you did.
I know you have a lot of questions.
But can we hold it off for now?
Let's think about Karla's condition first.
I'll take it from here. Okay?
You may go.
"You may go"? Are we in class?
Like "you're dismissed"?
But fine. Karla chose you.
Issa, I need your help!
Help me with Mavic!
Hold on. I'll help you, I promise.
Just give me a sec.
What are you doing?
Contact tracing.
We're looking at the
suspects who took Cheesy.
Ah, the petnappers.
Shit, there's no tag.
What's with that hashtag?
Work at the faculty room?
No, no, no. Werq at work.
The What's that called?
The workshop at the back.
Where the ciggie gang hangs out.
There's such a place?
Yeah.
Let me see.
Stop already.
Take another one.
- It's blurred.
- Hurry up!
Can I see, Loop?
- I'm not cute there!
- She's not cute.
One more.
Hurry up.
- Okay.
- Perfect.
Okay, Jude. You know what to do.
Are you sure about this, Gia?
We might make a mess
then the blood overflows!
My God, ew!
Did you bring a plastic or something?
Sure, Gia.
I mean look at me.
I woke up like this.
And I thought, I'm going
to kill a rat today.
I should bring a plastic!
Why, of course!
I got nothing.
What if we just flush it down a toilet?
No. It's just going to clog.
Let's just do it.
Now.
Whoa!
- What the hell?
- Cheesy!
Don't hurt Cheesy!
And why not?
You took Hunter.
I take your rat.
Sounds fair, right?
I didn't take him from you.
We're not a thing!
You're not?
Then why are you always together?
What, you just became instant BFFs?
What could Hunter possibly
need from you?
Shit, no reaction.
Look at you.
You can't even defend yourself, Issa.
- Jude.
- Yeah?
Issa saw me being harassed by coach!
Mr. Nolasco.
What are you doing?
You startled me.
Sorry I was just trying to make you smile.
Obviously not effective.
Are you all right?
My teacher got my first love pregnant!
I'm totally fine
Of course not!
I was embarrassed to tell you.
Feelings are whirling inside me
and I want to explode, but…
I'm afraid that if that happens,
I might not recover.
There, you just shared what happened.
If this hadn't happened to Cheesy…
I'm sorry, Hunter.
I'm so sorry.
You're not disgusted?
Never.
Guys, if there's someone
who deserves to be drilled,
it's not the guinea pig,
but that pig of a coach, Coach Tanyag!
We need to charge him!
Let's start a movement.
Hashtag I Am Hunter.
Why? Why?
Will it be that easy?
I think he'll be able to deny it.
Jude's right.
We need a strong evidence.
Where are we gonna get that?
Honey, honey. Dirty people,
they always leave some dirt behind.
Yes.
Guys, are you sure about this?
If it doesn't work,
you'll be dragged in this.
We don't mind!
Hunter, I won't let him
get away with this.
If it comes to that, so be it.
Right, girls?
I choose violence.
You're gonna make an effort for me?
Of course!
We'll do it for Gia.
Guys, this is for Hunter.
Let's put in goodie points for heaven!
- For Hunter!
- For Hunter!
Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!
Quit fooling around!
I just got carried away, girl!
This is for you.
Coach better be ready.
Pregnant?
She's known it for a while.
That's what she meant when
she said she was just using me.
A front. A cover story for her secret.
I thought back to
everything that's happened.
All the signs were there.
I was just too stupid
not to notice any of them.
Gibo.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
The worst thing about this is,
I kept choosing Karla
even if I knew it was wrong.
Even if someone else
was getting hurt by it.
Because I was so blind.
What I utterly regret is.
I turned my back on the person
who was always there for me
in favor of someone who
treated me like I was nothing.
Then say sorry.
Let her hear all of these.
How important she is,
how broken you are, or how wrong.
I know her.
I'm not sure she'll let me
into her world again.
But you know yourself more.
You know that
not making it up with Issa,
will haunt you forever.
If she cares for you as
much as you do for her,
Issa will forgive you.
I hope so. I hope she
gives me another chance.
Because after all that she's been through,
I want to be the one
to be there for her.
What is it?
You sounded just like
you did back then.
And you were saying
the same words back then.
But about your ex.
Really?
Yes. Did it not resonate?
If that's the case, I guess you're
over your ex even before you knew it.
All these just made it clear.
Heartbreaks, lies,
cover-ups, a pregnancy…
It's Issa you're feeling for, Gibo.
Okay, so is this the setup
of what happened?
Yes.
Okay, wait a minute.
Issa, help me with the framing.
Like that. Wait, go a bit higher.
Like that. That's it.
Hunter, could you please
tell us what happened.
I was standing like this,
leaning against the table.
Coach was seated in front of me
holding down my legs.
And then?
Then he slowly pulled down my shorts.
All right, all right.
Loop, please check the door.
Make sure no one gets in.
Jude?
Nobody's snooping?
Can you play coach?
Ah, me as coach?
Okay, sure.
Issa, please check the frame again.
Yes, that's right.
I'm up for this. Oh my gosh.
- How should I do? Like this?
- Hey, stop playing.
Jude.
No, Jude. That's not it.
- How about this?
- Kneel. Kneel in front of him.
Jude.
You have to be kneeling.
- The other way, shithead.
- No. You.
Ah, me?
Okay, just keep going.
Issa, how's this?
He was slowly pulling my shorts down.
Jude, do what he says
so we can see it on frame.
Shit.
There. And then?
That's it. Then I saw coach's head moving.
Jude! Move your head!
Okay. Go on, Issa.
So that's the frame, and the lighting.
Did you hear any sounds?
It was in the office, right?
Yeah, but it was a bit dark in there.
All right. I've got an idea.
I know what we'll do.
I've got it.
Jude.
Jude.
I know how we're going to
catch coach with his pants down.
Me and the whole alter world.
Okay? Come, let's huddle.
Come on, let's huddle over here.
Issa, let's talk please.
Hey. Where are you?
Ah, shit.
Going down on boys is his favorite kink.
He likes to take secret
videos of him doing the deed.
And the elements are always the same.
It's always dark, and after he blows them,
he stands up with his back on the camera,
goes around his victim
and licks their nape.
Presenting guys, the
new spawn of Mang Kanor.
Papa Blink!
Will that be enough?
In all the videos,
we can't see his face.
Right.
No, it's not enough but
we can still catch him using a trap.
A decoy.
Decoy being me.
- You?
- Yeah.
Wes, don't do it.
You can't do that. I don't want
someone else to go through that.
Well, they won't work.
Coach isn't into girls.
Jude?
Sorry, but you're not
a great fit either.
Guys, don't worry about me, okay?
We're going to hang him
upside down. Okay?
For Hunter.
For Hunter.
For Hunter.
For Hunter!
We can do this!
Thank you, guys.
You're welcome, dude.
Bye!
We said we'd go at the same time!
Just go ahead!
We said no going ahead.
Issa, I'm here!
Shit!
Shut the hell up!
You're making a racket.
How's Cheesy?
He's fine. I'm taking him home.
At least nobody will hurt you
at home, right, Cheesy?
You're welcome there
and people like you.
What if I like her too?
We've been together for hours.
Shouldn't that be the
first thing you tell me?
I was feeling dizzy earlier.
And I guess I was
just happy to see you.
I mean, they already know…
Wes, Issa, Gibo.
I don't know what to do
or what will happen.
But Lem, raising your voice
isn't helping so please, don't.
Who else knows about that?
And when did you find out?
After summer?
A month, maybe two?
Shit
Sorry.
I'm just shocked as you are.
I'm not in the right state of mind either.
But Karla,
forgive me.
Sorry.
I'm here for you. Okay?
Thank you.
I'm sorry about that.
I'm here for you until we
get this dealt with, okay?
Dealt with?
Yes, I'll go with you.
To abort the baby.
You like to what?
I want to make it up to you.
To take care of what we've started.
I want to make up for all the times
I said the wrong thing.
The times that I…
took for granted.
I was too focused on
chasing after the past,
I didn't notice how beautiful,
and how valuable the
one that's in front of me.
You talk too much.
Fine, we can take turns caring for Cheesy.
You can come visit at home anyway.
Like I live so far away.
Huh?
Hotdog.
Come on.
The heck did she say?
After I bared my heart to her, that's it?
- I don't get a reaction?
- You're a dumbass, Issa.
Just an egg… or hotdog, rather.
Did she turn me down?
I don't get it.
I wanna go down.
What?
I want out.
Out of this relationship!
Out of your gaslighting,
your manipulation!
You're a giant red flag
I should have noticed long ago!
I'll take care of myself!
Of the baby!
Where the fuck are you going?
Karla!
Karla! Fuck!
Ah, good evening, sir.
Well, Max, good evening to you.
What brings you here?
Man, you're really handsome!
I remember when I was your age,
I looked exactly the same!
Who are you here for?
Is Mavic here?
Ah, yes. Hang on.
Mavic!
Mavic, darling!
Mavic?
Daddy.
Here she is.
Okay, dad, could you leave us for a while?
Sure. Take your time.
Okay, sir.
I just wanted to say congratulations.
And I wanted to say sorry.
Mavic,
when I said it's me,
not you, I was serious.
Nothing's wrong with you,
nothing missing.
Actually, you're great.
You're the most generous,
kindest person who came into my life.
I'm the one at fault.
I'm the one with broken parts.
You know what Max,
you're not broken.
It's not a defect,
it's just your gender.
Still, it hurt you.
You and Wes. I know how
special he is to you and you to him.
And he's right. He's innocent.
I'm the one
I'm the one with feelings for him.
And I'm the one who made a move.
It's the first time I
freely expressed myself,
to follow how I feel
and this happened.
So please, Mavic.
If you cannot forgive me,
at least please, forgive Wes.
I don't want to ruin
what you guys have.
I don't want you to lose someone special.
That's not me.
Goodbye, love.
Mavs? I'm sorry.
Hi Papa Blink!
Looking for gig, message me
for full video, or meet up!
Teaser
I left right away, of course.
It was awkward.
In my mind, he was my cool teacher.
It's a little weird to think
he's the father of Karla's baby.
How's Karla?
She was still a bit faint
when I left.
Same old Karla.
Quiet.
I can't imagine what she's
going through, you know?
I mean, it's so sad.
She's feeling so vulnerable.
And if you think about
how Sir Lem is treating her.
So you should be
a good friend to her.
Do you really mean that?
Aren't you always against her?
This is different, duh.
This is a big deal!
At least you have me.
She needs a real friend
now more than ever.
Guys, the thirst trap is set.
Wait, what did you say
just now? Say it again.
I said she needs
a real friend right now.
No, before that.
Hello, Wes.
Bro, bro. Where are you?
Home. Why?
Check out Karla's post. Sounds like
she's gonna do something. Hurry!
He said I should look at her post.
Gibo!
Is everything okay?
The help says there's an emergency.
What is it?
And why are you here this late?
Everything's okay, Auntie.
I just needed something from Karla.
Huh? Okay.
If it's that important.
Just make it quick.
Before her daddy gets home.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Okay.
Thank you.
Gibo.
So you weren't planning something?
No.
What's with your goodbye post then?
I just said goodbye to my small uniform.
Next week I'll need to start using medium.
Because of this.
I'm glad you didn't consider
Does Auntie know?
I don't know how to tell her.
I don't know if I have the strength to.
Gibo,
I don't know if I can do it.
If you feel weak,
just stay on your feet.
I'll hold you up.
Why? Why are you so kind to me?
I did nothing but hurt you.
I told you, didn't I?
I'll take responsibility.
Ma, I'm sorry.
Gibo…
Sweetie
Why?
Why?
Come here.
Come here.
Max.
Finally called me by my name, Dad?
Does Mama know?
What you saw
A man who lost a fight a long time ago
and is still losing.
Dad,
it doesn't have to be this way.
It has to.
Even if it hurts?
Even if I go through the same thing?
What if we go easy on each other?
Try to be at ease.
You're not my superior.
I'm no soldier.
We're family, Daddy.
And I am more than happy
that the rodent has been found.
I just have an announcement.
Mr. Lemuel Cordova will no
longer be part of the faculty
as he will be indisposed indefinitely.
But on a happier note, our student
council elections was a success.
So let's all welcome our
new batch representative,
Ms. Maria Victoria Lagdameo.
Thank you, Mads.
Hi, guys!
First of all, thank you everyone
for your trust and support.
You're the best!
You have no idea how grateful I am because
even though I made a mess of my speech,
you still understood what I meant,
recognized the sincerity
and sense in my words.
Things may have been
weird for me last time,
but today my heart and
mind are happy and at peace.
I promise, it's all good from here on out.
I've recovered and ready to fight for you!
Go, Mavic!
Should we keep everyone waiting?
It's time to party!
Hey.
What are you doing there?
Why aren't you joining
the festivities outside?
Nothing, just tidying up.
My work here is done.
We have a new batch rep.
What do you mean by 'done'?
We still have lots to do, right?
Yep.
But you'll be busy with the council.
And I'll be focusing on recruitment.
Luke, I'm worried.
Why?
I'm not sure if I'm ready to be on my own.
Of course you are. You can do it.
Besides, you have Max, right?
Oh, I get it.
Sorry.
It's okay.
If you're not together anymore,
are you open to be
Yes.
Shit.
Oh, shit. Here I go again. Sorry, sorry.
I know you were going to say
something else but I interrupted you.
Oh, shit. Can I do this? Oh my gosh.
Let's rewind, all right? And
I was saying
Are you open to be my girlfriend?
Sorry if I'm too straightforward.
I take my chance to win whenever possible.
Sorry if I'm going too fast.
You think that's fast?
Mavs?
Impossible.
Meet me? This is for real.
Where?
At the jail booth.
I surprised you, didn't I?
Surprise me later.
You won't regret it.
Don't get too excited, Papa Blink.
Yes.
Stop it.
You have big muscles.
Sports does that to you.
Let's play later.
Somebody might see this.
Let's do it in the office.
Office? So kinky.
But I don't play like that. Bitch.
Papa's finished.
You're done. The whole school
knows you're PapaBlink
because you are the star for today's video!
What the hell is this?
Hey, uncuff me.
What the hell. Get me out of here.
Okay.
There.
You know what, forget it.
You asshole.
I hate you.
Mr. Tanyag, you'd better come with us.
Sir.
Okay, I'm innocent.
This is just a set-up. Okay?
Okay, bye-bye.
I don't need to be cuffed.
I don't need handcuffs, okay?
I'm innocent
Hey!
I'll sue you!
I'll sue you! You little shit.
Solid.
Eternal damnation.
Okay, guys. Everything cool?
Enjoy?
Come on. Let's go!
Let's go!
Enjoy! Foundation Day!
You mad at me bro?
Did you do that?
Wow.
Is that a new thrill for you?
No.
I did it because that's
what you would have done.
Even if it was dangerous
or I'll look crazy,
I know you'll do it because
it's the right thing to do.
Okay, that's me. That's me, Wes.
What about you?
Me?
You know what,
honestly,
I'm still getting to know myself.
I know that the best parts of me
are the parts that are good because of you.
Okay? You're rough around
the edges, blunt and tactless,
and I'm so sorry, but you are.
You're honest, sometimes too honest,
and money's not an object
not because you're rich or you
have a lot of it or you're privileged,
but because you're humble.
And Maria Victoria,
the best part about you is that…
you love without fear.
I can't fully trust myself
to make a choice,
but right now, I choose… you.
I choose to do everything for you
to forgive me and take me in again.
Oh my gosh.
That's crazy.
You're going to make me bleed out.
Could you say it like I'm five?
Yeah!
Okay, what I mean is,
I, this young, handsome, beautiful thing,
standing in front of this
crass lil girly with a big heart,
I'm asking you to love this
gender-fluid beautiful person
in a platonic, non-sexual,
forever kind of way.
Mavic, Bes… I love you.
How can I not forgive you?
Give me a kiss first.
I love you, too, Bes.
Hey, where are you taking me?
Where you belong.
You deserve this.
Thanks, man.
Hey.
For you.
Issa, about what I said last night,
I wasn't talking about Cheesy.
I mean it wasn't just Cheesy,
it's about you, too.
No. No, I was talking
about you, not Cheesy.
Ah, shit. Sorry, it's confusing.
Issa, I just want to tell you that…
What?
- Tell me what?
- Issa, I like you.
Possibly for a long time now. When we were
kids riding those bikes down our alley.
The road was difficult and long,
and because I was impatient,
I rode past you.
But now, I've found
the way back to you, so
I hope you can still accept me.
I hope we can still do this together.
Gibo,
I never left.
You said we'll do it together.
I stuck by that.
I never strayed.
I promise, I won't leave you behind again.
Okay. Gibo, Issa, do you take this
Yep.
Okay, you may now
Excited much?
Fine, then you're married.
