October Road (2007) s02e13 Episode Script

I can see it in the way you look at me.
You're thinking,"I don't agree with the choices that you've made,hannah.
How could a young woman make such a muddle of her own life? " And that's your right to think those things.
But it's also my right to insist, in this moment,that you hear me o.
You punched me in the face,bitch.
I did.
in front of my children,in front of my ex-husband,in front of your own son.
And for that,I was wrong.
You and ray are welcome to go down whatever primrose path you choose.
But I'm the mother of his children, and I'm not gonna let you take my boys with you.
You see,that is where you're wrong,christine,? te equivocas porque because your boys are a part of this.
How can they not be when I'm marrying their father? This is an invitation to an engagement party for me and ray.
It's this saturday, and don't worry about R.
S.
V.
P.
, Because I already have you down,plus two--jasper and casper.
Because no matter what we may think of each other deep down, and no matter how agonizing this scenario is for the both of us, ***quietly endure.
Thank you for your time,christine.
See you on saturday.
eddie,it's me.
Where are you? I tried you,like,six times.
We need to talk.
All me.
I don't know about you,but I am spent.
It's not like either of us got much sleep last night.
Stop it,rooster.
Tired though I may be,I feel invigorated, a happy stupor,bleary-eyed and wobbly boned, but energized to stumble into the great tomorrow with my new lady love.
you slept with another guy's girlfriend.
That's not something either of us should be gloating about.
Mae that should factor somewhere into your stupid stupor.
Copy that.
Understandable.
We'll move right past it.
hello.
Hi,nick.
What? janet's on her way.
thanks,buY.
Eddie said that ikey's the one that brought him to the hospital, showed up right after the beat-down.
He had to know it was coming.
Hey,maybe he was trying to stop it.
I'll tell you one thing.
Ray taldo has officially stepped into the wtang.
We don't know th ray had anything to do with this.
Matt lauche is his boy.
There's no way you're gonna deny me unleashing the wu-tang.
No way.
I get to call the play on this one,owen.
I'm calling a stand-down.
And we got all the time in the world for retribution.
how is he? Well,his spirits are tter than his jawbone,so.
there's that.
Happy up,people.
"Freddy venetta was carved out of greek marble with inexpensive scotc flowing through his veins.
Stratton,you gotta stop quoting the book.
I'm just saying he'll get good quick.
I'm just saying,it's-- hey,did you tell eddie? It wasn't the right time.
Really? When is the right time? When is the precise moment that you let your best friend business partner know that you're fixing to bail on everything and everyone you finally got good with again? Aubrey.
When is the right time? You should really,really have an answer,nick, because you're still gonna have to tell your family that you're not gonna be around while your dad is trying to beat cancer.
I'll only be gone for five months,okay? I'll be back.
You know the thing about those five months? They will be the worst five months ever.
They will be for your dad,they will be for eddie, they will be for all of us who re naive enough to believe that you were finally starting to find your soul.
Proudly Presents Season 2 Episode 13 Are you in pain? So long as my,uh,bone,skin and muscles don't count, I--my hair and nails never felt better.
there's somethin' I need to tell ya.
There's,um,something I need to tell you,too.
I-I get to go first,okay? 'Cause I've been laying here,trying to build up the courage.
- Eddie,maybe we should just w - no,wait.
Wait,wait.
An old friend of mine came back into town-- an old girlfriend,actually.
Rory dunlop-- do you--you remember her? I should have told you from gate, but it just started stirring up all this stuff for me, and--and I just-- I didn't want it to get in the way of what we got going on here.
and last night,in a moment of just supreme stupidity,we kissed.
You kissed her and.
and that was it.
It wasn't even really a good kiss, 'cause the moment that our lips touched, I-I-I realized that this wasn't the girl that I wanted to be ssing, and--and I stopped it.
Wait.
You--you stopped cause of me? Look,I know it's not much consolation, and--and you got every right to be creased,but just.
you're telling me the truth.
I have to go.
she's not creased,not creased a bit.
Perfect.
What up,guys? so,uh,I got some good news.
That job--I decided.
I'm gonna take it.
It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,and I'll only be gone for five months, so I'll-I'll be back,you know,if,uh.
wait.
You're leaving? Just for five months.
Now? Yeah,they need me by monday.
Well,that's a twist.
or not.
Ronnie.
What? I don't understand.
You-- look,dad,I'm onlgonna be a phone call away,okay? So if you need anything,I'll just buy a ticket,and-- You're doing the right thing.
I am? 'Cause I-I wasn't sure.
absolutely.
There's nothing like-- be better to lift my spirits than.
knowing my eldest is out there living his dream.
storming eden in the garrett nameright,leslie? Yeah,that's right,robert.
You re about this? Go,son.
Create some memories.
Drink those irishmen to the snot,okay? Yeah.
Everything goes out back.
If you go outside,you'll see.
if this is what it takes to do an eagement party, I will give you anything to plan my wedding.
I will give you sam.
how did this happen? It was a misunderstanding.
Eddie lied to you about his ex coming to town, and you misunderstood.
Lay it out like that.
But you should see him,all bruised and weak in that hospital bed.
that was a stupid thing to do.
You wanted to see me,ray? I did.
I heard you took latekka to the hospital.
What,you went there to stop it? That's right.
Yeah,well,I love you for that.
Truly,I do.
No matter what kind of beef we have with eddie latekka,we don't draw fists.
It's--it's beneath us.
You'll find three weeks of matt's salary in your next paycheck.
What? No.
Come on,ray.
That's all wrong,man.
Hey,you don't gotta do that,ray.
Yeah,of course I do.
See,matty's a hockey player,forgets he's not wearing his skates on the reg.
Besides,you deserve to be rewarded for spreading the name of cataldo builders in such a positive light-- something I'm sure you'll continue to do in the future.
Thank yoid dav.
why you always wanna walk? Why you always wanna take a limo? It's 'cae I can.
You know what I need? I need a beverage.
Hannah anna.
How's knights ridge's hottest jailbird doing on day like today? Pretty good.
I heard about your dad.
How is he? He's good.
Yeah,I mean,if there's anyone who can lick it, it's the commander,right? Once that cancer gets a good look around at all those grumpy bones, it'll be like,"peace out,yo.
This ain't no place to raise no family.
" You all have a chat.
I'm gonna go over there and,uh,check out that park bench.
I collect park benches,hannah anna.
Sorry.
Look,if you need anything,um,anything at all,just.
Will you tell your dad that our prayers are with him? I will.
Are you gonna be around on saturday? Yeah,I think so.
Why? There's an engagement party for me and ray at the house.
We would love to have you.
That won't be weird.
Ray's borderline psychotic ex-wife is invited.
Oh,so why not just invite your borderline psychotic ex-boyfriend? Yeah,something like that.
And maybe your dad will want to come out.
You should ask him.
Ronnie,aubrey,the guys-- it's a--it's a come one,come all thing.
I'll think about it.
Think about it.
You know what I'm thinking? What's that? That maybe this is why you came back to the ridge.
without even knowing it.
Hannah,I came.
oh I came back to teach a class.
Maybe.
Or maybe the universe brought you back so that you could be here, in this moment,with your dad,to help him heal.
Maybe you had to go away then so that you could be here now.
Maybe.
I'll see you,nick.
surprise visitors.
I love it that I have friends who are robots.
We come to wish you well.
"We"? That's right.
Greetings,buddy.
How you holding up? There was no keeping me away.
You are one resourceful shut-in.
Yes,he is.
Are you okay? Well,I'm hanging in there.
let me bring you up to speed on things here at home.
Yeah,the toaster's on the fritz.
Blackened bagels abound.
And there's brown water coming out of the upstairs ll bathroom.
Oh,and a program note-- marisa tomei's on leno tonight.
And we all know how you burn for her,so you probably want to tune in.
News from home-- isn't it a comfort? Can we go see eddie? What,baby? I want to go see eddie.
Well,that's really sweet of you to want to do, but I don't think eddie would want you to see him in the state that he's in.
So why don't you let him heal up,and then we'll see him after? Did big cat know what matt was gonna do? Well,you know ray.
What do you think? I think he hates eddie.
He doesn't hate eddie.
They're just not friends.
And,sam,ray would never allow somebody to get hurt without stepping in.
Why don't you go clean your room? Because we got a party to throw.
Are you gonna let him get away with this? all right,what happened? What happened is your son decided to leave.
He found out his father was sick,and he's gonna cut and run.
Well,what's he gonna do here? Watch his old man puke in the john and eat soup? You know,how you manage to hide behind your pride every time someone's about to break your heart, robert,is something to behold.
Stand up for yourself,for crying out loud.
Nick's a grown man.
He can do what he wants to do.
Yeah,and he's your son, and it's your job as his parent to let him know that you need him.
I am not going to beg him to be somewhere or someone he doesn't want to be.
How long you been sitting there? Didn't wanna wake ya.
Watching another man sleep,ikey,that'S.
that's a bit weird.
Nah.
It's,h,it's what they do in the westerns.
When the gunslinger's been shot, the drunken sidekick stays by his side in case the bad guys return.
And there he remains until the gunslinger's healed.
Right.
Only you've lost your sidekick privileges as of late,huh? I brought you somethin'.
Scotch and water with a pop of pepper sauce.
Old school.
That might not gtoo well with the painkillers,gabby.
Yeah,good catch.
Well,since I went to all the trouble of making it.
I tried to stop it,you know.
Yeah,I got your messages.
One clobber in too late,but.
I got 'em.
Sit down,goofus.
Sit.
Drink.
Don't talk.
Just.
just stay.
How are you holding up? Well,the internet's not helping.
The more I learn aboumy dad's cancer,the more my head wants to explode.
I always say,if information is power, I'd prefer the weak bliss of ignorance.
But that's just me.
I wish I didn't know anything.
I mean,I don't-- I don't know many things,but the things I do know.
I hate 'em.
Nick told youhe was leavin Wish I didn't know that.
And I wish I didn't know that my dad was sick and that eddie got clobbered.
I wish I didn't know that on this night,murph closes his sub shop early, so I can't get the one thing that always makes me feel better-- you know,roast ef on pumpernickel with chipotle mayo and black olives,dash of salt.
Wanna know what I wish? What? I wish you could remember what it was like before you knew all these things.
Les call it.
back wn you were.
happy? Exactly.
Now I can't account for your dad,bono or roast beef,but.
I don't see why that happiness can't find its way back to you very,very soon.
I'll see you later.
Hey,what do you think of this bouquet? I think.
it reminds me of eddie's bside, which is something I don't care to think about.
You still haven't come clean? I'll talk to him.
I will,soon.
Do we have any more lilies to accent? Still alive? Jeez,enough already.
Don't you have a business to run? Hey,I closed out the invoices on the parker account,thank you very much.
It's,uh,it's kinda what I wanted to talk to you about.
Well,I don't like that look.
look,man,I,uh,I gotta leave town for ahile,just a couple months.
I got a job opportunity.
U2 wants me to go with them on tour,write a thing.
U2? Yeah,but this won't be like the last time.
I mean that.
I'm just gonna go,collect the cash and come back.
What about the shop? Well,it's up to you.
I mean,I was kinda hoping that you'd keep it goin'.
We're in a pretty solid place now.
Ronnie's catching on quick.
And the commander? I wish things were different,but.
it is what it is.
That it is.
u2,huh? U2.
God,can I come with? I'll ask bono.
Touring with u2,huh? I mean,I hate music,but even i like u2.
You hate music? Who hates music? I'm just saying,that is.
touring with u2,that--that-- it's like a dream.
Hey,I'll be back.
Parting gift? Ikey stepped up.
He tried to warn me matt was coming.
Just thought owen should know.
Did ikey say whether ray knew? He wasn't sure.
Don't worry about it,man.
I can handle the big cat.
did you know what they were gonna do to eddie? The hell's wrong with you,garrett? the only,thing,ray, the only thing stopping me from cracking at smug smirk off your face is hannah and sam.
I wouldn't do that to them.
Slow it downrambo.
I'm leaving town for a while,ray,but I know.
I know.
I know the things you've done to hurt me and hurt the people that I care about, but believe this.
I'll be back,and if I find out that you hurt any of these people in any way again, I'll bury you,kid,bury you gone.
Now don't you think you're letting your imagination get ahead of you,paperback writer? 'Cause,yeah,you are damn straight that I tried to sour your return to the ridge.
You were coming after my woman.
Your woman,huh? So tell me,who's the villain in that tale,hmm? And then we come to the latekka beat-down.
Now you know how much I despise that clunk.
So ask youelf,if there was a chance for me to get in on his pouncing, would anything have stopped me from taking that first punch? Would I have missed that for anything in the world? Now I may be many things that you don't like-- the man who's engaged to the woman that you love being front and center on nicky's list of wrongs.
But the one thing that I am not is complicad.
D of story.
It better be the end.
Oh,it is.
oh,and,garrett, you're still a skinny little turd, and even though you might wanna give me a pasting, that doesn't necessarily mean you could.
hey,ikey.
Hey,hannah.
You gettin' excited? Um,yeah,I think-- I think it's gonna be fun.
ikey,can I ask you a question about ray? Of course.
Actually,forget it.
I don't want tput you in any kind of position.
Hannah,I know we ain't always been tight,but we go back almost 20 years, so you got somethin' you gotta get off your chest about anything,you get it off.
Come here.
Do you think that ray had anything to do with eddie getting jumped? Because if he did,then I don't know what no.
He didn'T.
How do you know? 'Cause I walked into ray's office while he was chewin' out matt for gettin' after eddie.
He docked him three weeks on his paycheck, gave it to me for taking eddie to the hospital, so by my own eyes and ears,straight up, you don't got nothin' to worry about.
Thanks,ikey.
Yeah,no problem.
hey,lukey.
Luke,come move this.
everything all right? I need to tell you something.
I knew it.
You said you were okay with me and rory, but,oh,man,I knew there was more to come.
All right.
Fire away.
Um,I'm new at this thing,eddie-- being in a relationship-- and you've been really good at holding my hand along the way.
Aw,come on.
We've-- we've held each other's hands.
I.
in a way,I'm-- I'm new at it,too.
the other night,I came to see you.
I knew rory was in town and you weren't telling me, and I came to see you,but what I saw was you and her kissing.
you saw us? I did.
I didn't stick around long enough to see how it ended, but I saw,and I misunderstood.
"Misunderstood.
" You--you thought-- I thought that I was witnessing the beginning of something, and I was devastated.
I felt like someone had pushed me off thledge of a-- a super tall building,and I looked for something to grab onto, and I,uh,I did something terrible.
What did you grab onto,janet? Rooster.
You grabbed on.
to rooster? I did.
And by "grabbed on," you mean.
I slept with him.
With rooster russo? Yes.
I care forou so much,eddie, and these past months have been the most magical time of my--my life, and--but no matter how wonderful you treat me-- and you do.
You do-- I amnever gonna stop feeling like the chubby girl who gets rejected by the captain of the football team, and I needed something to hold on to the way you've made me feel, because I was so sure that I was losing that,that I was losing you.
I am so sorry,eddie.
you know the funny thing about being laid up like this? It has been a revolving door of people walking in here and pouring their hearts out.
Itakes sense.
I'm in a weakened state.
I guess the rgiveness has been flowing.
but what you just told me,janet-- that you would have sex with another man instead of asking me what goes on.
hell,all I can say to that is.
get the hell out of my sight.
no,eddie-- and go find somewhere to rot.
please,just-- because the captain of the footballeam,janet,is rejecting you.
Get--g out of my room.
Get.
get out of my room! boys,say hi to the davises.
ray,hannah,congratulations.
I hope you both find happiness together.
Thank you,christine.
Well,you'll forgive me for not having my present on hand.
Colaint withdrawals are hard to gift wra what's gotten into you? Are the twins getting this? they are.
Good.
I still hate you both like chlamydia, which I'm quite sure one of you knows a thing or two about and can only hope the other one doesn'T.
yet.
what was that about? Let's just call it a new chapter.
Oh,here's to that.
Right there.
I never was part of your coffee klatch, owen,but we all lose our footing,don't we? It's how you step up in a grungle by which you should be judged, and word on the spit is,ikey stepped up for team latekka.
See you later.
That is the word,rooster.
Th is the word.
hi,mr.
Garrett.
I'm so happy you came.
Well,happy to be here,hannah.
You met the dean,uh,obviously.
Yes,whe uh,when sam was in the hospital.
Right.
Congratulations,hannah.
Thank you.
How's,uh,how's this guy doing? Ah,he's a stubborn old mule,but he'll outlive all of us.
Here,re,here.
Is nick coming? Nick's gone,hannah.
He's gone--gone where? Well,he--he left.
He--he just went away.
He did not.
He did.
He took a job.
He's,uh,leaving town right now as we speak.
No,he wouldn't do that.
It's true.
I mean,it's--it's okay.
No.
You're wrong.
I don't think so.
Sometimes it takes him ten years.
or ten hours or ten minutes,but nick always does the right thing.
I mean,he always did,and he always will.
You just have to have a little faith.
there was no chipotle mayo, so I threw a pepperoncini on there for a kick in the pants.
You made me my happy sandwich? Hopefully it is up to your discriminating standards.
You de my happy sandwich.
ronnie? I'm in love with you,aubrey.
I've been in love with you ever since nick brought you home on taco tuesday on that wednesday, and I-I know it's weird,because he's my brother, and-d--and you guys are dating, but,uh,since he's leaving,I have to tell you that.
I love that when you talk,you--you flap your hands, or sometimes you use big words that make no sense to me, and I love that no matter what room you'rin,the light attaches itself to you, and most of all,I love the way that I feel when I'm near you.
oh,boy.
I'm staying,dad.
- Nick? - No,it's done.
I want to be here.
Aw,this better not be on account of me no,it's-- it's on account of.
I mean,this is where I want to be-- with you guys, and look,dad,you're gonna be fine,all right? I know it,okay? It's just--it's where I'm meant to be right now, and I'll--I-I'm sorry if I lost that-- sight of that for-- we're gonna lick this thing,kiddo.
I know.
We're gonna lick it.
Did you talk to eddie? Yeah,we talked.
Is every--everything cool? Everything's great.
Good.
Congrats,hannah.
Thanks.
Perfect timing.
I'm stickin' around.
I have to apologize to both of you.
You know,I'm just-- I'm an idiot most of the time.
I'm sorry.
It's just.
I have this thing I have to attend to, but I'll catch you guys later? I love you,bro.
let's take a drive,ikey.
I didn't have nothin' to do with eddie getting beat up.
Yeah,we know all about you and eddie.
So let's take a drive.
Where to? It's 3:00 on saturday,moosh.
Where you think we're goin'? Come on.
Yeah? I heard you weren't feeling well, so I got you this.
thanks,sam.
'Cause I think you're a cowboy.
so about what I said earlier,I was emotional.
I mean,my dad's sick,and ray's marrying hannah, and eddie's beat up in the hospital.
There's no more harry potter books.
I mean,there's just a lot going on that I-- dorks.
Matt's ere.
I'll handle this,okay? You gottgo.
What are you talking about? Well,we gotta keep up appearances.
Spirit of marital bliss.
All right,but you owe me.
You know,latekka-- if he decides to press charges, I could get all kinds of jacked up.
Well,just put it on my bill,slick.
knights ridge,baby! Ain't that america?
