Ride (2016) s01e10 Episode Script

1 SALLY: Now more than ever we have got to take that Cup.
We need to give Juniper House a kick in their backsides! Is that clear? (HORSE WHINNIES) No pressure, though.
We won't worry about Anya.
Not today.
Alright? She's just fine.
She's chosen to leave Covington.
It's that simple.
We'll miss her, of course, but we have got a team of very strong riders.
For the most part.
SALLY: That's enough, Elaine.
Now whose turn is it to take home the Covington House Cup? Juniper House! Now girls, are we confident? Yes.
Are we confident? Yes we are! Now, you're riding for league standings against students from all across the UK.
The house with the highest points takes home the Covington House Cup, which I hear is a bit of a big deal.
Let's take it back from those girls, huh? Huddle up, count to three.
Ready? One, two, three, Juniper House! (CHEERING) The boys are going down! (GROANS) SALLY: Oh dear! What in the world is happening? ELAINE: You! I told you not to bring that horrid smoked salmon into the cottage.
Who else ate the fish? (GASPS) Oh dear.
I ate it and I'm fine.
This is surely the curse of the missing horseshoe.
It happened once before when I was in the fifth form.
Joannie got a hoof in the head, Bets' horse escaped and was gone the whole day.
And my horse, Sadie, she stopped right before the jump, and I continued flying over, and I fell in a heap, and I chipped a tooth.
Respectfully, Miss.
Warrington, it's a horseshoe.
No.
(GROANS) Oh dear! Oh no! We'll have to dip into our list of reserve riders.
Right.
Right.
Dear me.
Who do we have? Who else rides Jumper? Um, Kiki Welch? No? Alright, Jilly.
Jilly Jones.
Poor Jilly.
Babe Scarrow? (GROANS) Oh.
(VOMITING NOISE) That leaves us with you, Peaches.
Tack up for the jumper course.
You know I only work on the flat.
I'm afraid of heights.
I'll do it.
I can.
I think.
Mm-hmm.
I've been practicing.
You know I have.
I know the course inside and out.
It's worth a shot, right? Well, it's worth a thought, certainly.
Respectfully, Miss.
Warrington, it's worth nothing.
I've been training Kit.
I should know.
She's simply not ready.
Hey, where were you? You missed my stirring and brilliant pep talk.
Yeah, well, they've got me ushering.
You're still part of my team.
We could have used your smiling face in there.
Well, your could be smiling face.
Occasionally smiling face.
Yeah, well this is an important job.
I've got to get the corners straight.
Sorry you're not riding today in the Cup.
I wish you were.
But you'll still get your scores for the All-Schools League.
Just not today.
Right.
Yeah, because riding alone for the judges on the make up day is just as much fun, isn't it? You'd rather ride in front of the crowd? Yeah! The horses get excited.
And everyone's cheering, and competing is just this thrill of when you make a jump, and it matters.
And everyone sees that it matters.
Miss Warrington was about to let us compete, and then Elaine had to jump right in there with, "Respectfully, Miss Warrington.
" She wouldn't even give me a chance.
(HORSE SNORTS) I hear ya! Well, we'll just have to go out and kill it in the dressage circle.
Just really crush it.
(HORSE WHINNIES) Whoa! You look super swag! I've come to wish you all the best on the field today.
You, too.
Thank you so much.
I couldn't have done it without you.
The sticky notes.
They made all the difference.
My sticky notes? What notes? ANNOUNCER: All first round dressage competitors to the ring.
Wait, you're joking, right? Isn't it part of the whole secret admi- secret advisor dude thing? (LAUGHS) Concentrate on your ride.
Go be stellar.
Ah, Mr.
Jasper-Eaton.
Lovely to see you.
I love your tie.
You must have a look at our new media room on your way out to the grounds, and thank you so much for making that happen.
LORD CHATFIELD: Lady Covington! LADY C: Ah, Mr.
Chatield.
Our request for the front row was submitted eons ago.
Our Nelly deserves to see her parents, who travelled all the way from Fife, in the front row! Of course she does, and there you are, Mr.
Chatfield.
Lad - I am insulted.
You have seated me in the back row with the pigeons.
Mrs.
Andrada, you're right there in the front row.
No, I'm not! I'm with the pigeons! The competition is about to begin, and if I miss my Navarro's first round due to the utter incompetence of your little operation here - Queiro sepas que Bibianna, Serena, Miguel - I would - And Navarro.
It's insulting.
(CROWD CHATTING) MRS.
ANDRADA: No, hello, wait! No, you have to all move over.
RS.
ANDRADA: The back row.
Yes, ack there.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) No, you're not sitting here.
It is simply ridiculous that I'm not in the VIP section of the VIP section, next to the VIP's.
(LAUGHS) Before today, the woman didn't even know what a back row was.
(CROWD CHATTERING) Uh-oh.
What's with all the drama? Ask Will.
Best of luck with that mess.
I've got a race to win.
Uh-oh.
Does he know about our bet, dude? Because I just can't wait to beat him and get your nice room for myself.
Not now, Josh.
I've already voodooed Nav and performed my never-fail, pre-race ritual.
Tune in, bro! Yeah, okay.
ANNOUNCER: Riding our jumpers course for Rose Cottage, Elaine Wiltshire.
(CLAPPING AND CHEERING) That's how you do it.
Well done, Miss Wiltshire.
Hey! Hey, have you seen Kit, buddy? Uh, sure.
In the stables.
Coolness.
I'm just kind of worried about him.
You know, our friend.
Who? Mr.
Bridges? No, Will.
It's just he's so bummed about not being able to race in the Cup, and now he's going to catch it for the whole seating catastrophe thing, too.
I just think he could use a little cheering up, right? And Kit, right, being such a decent person, you know.
She's going to be all over making him feel better.
Well hey, good luck today.
You know, big day.
Looks good.
ANNOUNCER: Navarro Andrada, Juniper House, takes the course, riding on Prince.
RUDY: You've got this kid.
Pull it back.
(CROWD GASPS) (CLATTER) (CLAPPING) ANNOUNCER: And I'm afraid Mr.
Andrada has accumulated two faults.
That will cost his standings.
(SIGHS) Peaches, you're going the wrong way.
If you need to go to the toilet, you should have thought about that earlier.
Oh, you look flushed.
Actually, you look rather like a piece of smoked salmon.
I feel absolutely ace.
Peaches.
(GASPING) It was the fish.
(WHIMPERS) I believe.
I believe.
I believe in the curse.
(WHIMPERING) I didn't do it on purpose! Honestly! The seating chart was the wrong way around.
Lady Covington was not pleased.
You don't say.
What do we do? I just want to go and hide in my room, and give her some time to calm down.
Tack up.
What? What? You heard me.
But Lady Covington said - I'm the stable master, and I'm telling you to tack up, and get out there.
ANNOUNCER: Katherine Bridges, please report to the outdoor dressage ring.
Katherine Bridges.
We're good.
We've got this.
If you nail it, I promise you like a thousand carrots.
You'll have to do your dressage later.
You're up right now.
For jumpers.
What? I know.
Not ideal.
Okay.
ANNOUNCER: Riding our jumpers course for Juniper House, Josh Luders and Whistler.
ANNOUNCER: A clear round for Josh Luders.
Nicely done.
(CLAPPING) Yes! Good boy! Good show.
Thanks, dude.
(CLAPPING) I cannot believe that I'm going to run the jumper course.
It's a good thing I don't have too much time to think about it, because the best/worst list could go on for hours.
(HORSE SNORTS) WILL: (CLEARS THROAT) (HORSE SNORTS) These were you? Uh, maybe.
Is that a good thing? So good! I, I, um, I didn't think you'd ever forgive me after the whole Guy thing.
Well, I do.
I'm so glad for you that you get to ride today.
ANNOUNCER: William Palmertston to the jumping ring.
William Palmerston.
That's me, so - Yes, it is.
Well, break a leg.
Yeah, we don't say that.
You're going to be amazing out there.
You always are.
Thanks.
(HORSE SNORTS) ANNOUNCER: William Palmerston and Wayne are really putting on some speed today.
(CLAPPING) ANNOUNCER: Moving up to the top of today's standings, William Palmerston.
Yeah! (CHEERING & CLAPPING) Best time yet.
Thanks.
And thanks for letting me.
Yeah, speaking of that just lay low.
Will do, sir.
(CROWD CHATTING) Man, bro killed it! Dude, he beat us both! Hey, it's a good thing he's from the same house though.
Kind of takes the sting out of coming in third place, eh? (LAUGHS) (LAUGHS) Oh, man.
ANNOUNCER: A novice jumper attempting our course today.
Katherine Bridges will be riding TK on behalf of Rose Cottage.
I need the ugly brooch.
Oh, jeez, I wish I had thought Oh! You knew.
You knew I'd need it.
Well, I've known you for a long time.
Head up, core tight.
Don't mess up.
Don't let the curse of the horseshoe get to you.
You need to make every jump.
You'll be fine.
You're Elaine trained.
Surely something stuck.
One, two, three.
(HORSE SNORTS) (PANTING) (HORSE SNORTS) (HORSE SNORTS) (HORSE GRUNTING) Come on, TK, not now.
This isn't a hip hop class.
Come on, buddy, enough already.
(HORSE WHINNIES) Come on! TK.
I need a minute.
Okay, back up.
Again.
We are doing it again, and we are going to go over that jump.
Come on, buddy, there is no getting out of this.
(HORSE GRUNTING) No.
Don't you dare try to argue with me.
We are doing this.
RUDY: It's alright, kid.
You tried.
Just bring him in.
No! This is so not over.
Okay, back up.
There you go.
There you go.
Okay, great.
Whoa.
(HORSE GRUNTS) (HORSE WHINNIES) (GASPS) It's okay, it's okay.
Come on.
Get up.
Here we go.
It's alright, it's alright.
You did just fine.
It's okay.
Get them off the field now.
IT: What happened out there? We racticed.
I got on a horse.
That was impossible just a few weeks ago.
My cottage lost the whole thing to the boys, and you! You! What was that? Elaine can take that up with you.
(HORSE WHINNIES) No.
Don't you dare try to talk to me right now.
I'm too mad.
Sometimes you really are a donkey.
You don't look so hot.
You okay? Certainly.
Nothing to fret about.
Why don't you let me help you up? Not until you give me the horseshoe.
What? I've got half the girls of Rose Cottage cramming the toilets, and I, I can't seem to move.
So unless you want to play nursemaid - No, I - It was just a joke.
I'm sorry.
Truly.
I would watch yourself, Mr.
Bridges.
And stay away from the fish.
(KNOCK ON DOOR) KIT: I'll save you the trouble.
Yes, I totally made a big mess, we lost to the boys, and I let you down.
I get it.
I'm probably even responsible for us losing Anya.
I will report to Lady C and beg her to take me off the roster so I don't ruin the rest of your life.
Look, everyone has a bad course.
Even when they're experienced.
Even me.
But you did it.
I didn't do anything except argue with that impossible four legged nightmare.
Do you know what you did wrong? Yes, please make me a list.
Start with packing up, and coming to this school, and driving away the best friend I ever made.
You didn't listen to your horse.
He was trying to tell you that he couldn't handle it, but you weren't hearing him.
You just cared about what you wanted to do.
Oy! What are you doing in my room? You did not beat me.
You could not beat the master.
Get out.
Au contraire, my friend.
You see, the bet was to beat Nav, right, which I did.
Stuff's all ready.
Enjoy rooming with Leo.
I would invest in some ear plugs, though.
That dude snores like a chainsaw.
Whoa.
You can go.
(HORSE WHINNIES) I am so sorry.
I promise I will never do that, ever again.
Does that mean you forgive me? Because it would be terrible if we were fighting.
I don't know what I would do without you.
Can I help you? RUDY: Will's a kid who needs to ride.
He should be given credit for all the hours he spent helping Kit.
Look, if I'm stable master, I've got to have some say in all this.
I am talking about Katherine.
How could you let her put herself in danger? Oh, that's rich.
It was your schedule that pushed her so hard.
She could have been hurt.
I know, but you've been telling her for weeks that her inability to ride is some sort of moral failure.
Threatening to take TK away.
What do you think that was teaching her? This will not happen again.
You are on probation.
I was right there.
She's my daughter.
Don't you forget that.
Well, you'd better go and see her.
She'll need you more than ever now.
Why? (HORSE WHINNIES) Stop! TK! No! No!
