Andi Mack (2017) s02e16 Episode Script

Truth Or Truth

1 Previously, on Andi Mack We only have a week left with each other.
- I know.
- It's the world's saddest countdown.
Which is why we need to make every last day epic.
BEX: We saw you at mini-golf.
BOWIE: You saw me there with Miranda.
BEX: And her daughter.
I guess that means she thinks it's serious.
Are you? BOWIE: I don't know what to say.
Jonah I know you're trying to help, but you're just making it worse.
I'm sorry, I'm just trying to be a good boyfriend.
Jonah, you're not my boyfriend.
I told you at the bar mitzvah, I changed my mind.
I want the label.
But now I don't know if I want it.
I don't wanna go to school today.
How come? I'm just not feeling it, you know? You just wanna lie around all day and do nothin'? You kinda need a day like that every once in a while, right? I believe that, yes.
Great! I'm going to go back to bed.
No, you're not.
You're goin' to school.
What? You just said I could take today off.
No, I did not.
Instant replay: Me: "You need a day off every once in a while.
" You: "Yes, you do.
" A day, not to-day.
I don't get to pick the day? No, you have to ask for it.
May I please skip school today? Hmm For what reason? I'm not feeling it.
No, you may not.
What? What if I were to (GROANS) groan, very loudly, and say I have a stomachache? I'd like to think you wouldn't lie to me.
Well, I would like to think I wouldn't have to.
Andi, I have a really hard time saying no to you.
Please don't make this any harder? Please just go get dressed? (PHONES RINGING) BOTH: Hello? - It's the school! - Power failure! BOTH: School is canceled! Yes! You can say no, but the universe will not be ignored.
Thank you, Universe! Hey, you're making me look bad.
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING) I'm standing on the edge And everything I kno-o-ow Has blown away Life is upside down But any way it go-o-oes I'll work it out Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Here we go One, two, three! I'm ready for tomorrow Tomorrow starts today There ain't no map to follow But I'm with you all the way - I'm ready for tomorrow - Hey! - Tomorrow starts today - Hey! There ain't no map to follow Hey! But I'm with you all the way Hey! All the way - What are you doing? - I need these.
- For what? - I'm making you a bed! I have a bed.
This one's better.
Come see.
Oh! You like it? I can't believe it's real! Can I go inside? Of course! But your phone can't.
It's a phone-free fort.
(PHONE BUZZES) Important? No.
Don't you wanna be like us? Don't you wanna be like us? Oh! I live here now.
(LAUGHS) Catalog girl Don't you wanna be like us? Don't you wanna be like us? - Hey! - Buffay! What's the game plan today? Game plan? We have been given a free day.
The world is our baby tater.
Well, Andi went back to bed for a while.
Said she'll text when she gets up.
And I've got homework.
Whoa, Buffy, Buffy, Buffy.
Yes, yes, yes? You're doing schoolwork today? My new teachers sent assignments so I can be all caught up when I get to Phoenix.
Bad enough being the new kid.
I can't afford to be behind.
Listen, you woke up this morning thinking you were going to school.
But by a beautiful twist of fate and some outdated circuitry, you're not! Let's live on the edge.
Let's face our fears.
Let's play the game that shall not be named.
Nope.
Come on, you probably don't even remember why you don't like it.
It looks like an innocent board game, but it's a soul-sucking vortex of greed and pain.
It turns good people bad! That game is toxic.
But aside from all of that, like, pretty fun, right? I will never play that game again.
Didn't wanna have to do this.
Do what? "I promise to play the game of your choice and not get mad and flip the board.
Signed Buffy Driscoll.
" I can't believe you kept this.
It was my Hanukah gift from you when we were eight.
As you can see, no expiration date.
That's on you.
I am cashing it in.
Aren't you forgetting? You need at least three people to play.
I'm sure Andi's up already.
- (LINE RINGS) - Hi, it's Andi.
Please leave a message.
Hmm.
She's not answering.
- (BEEPS) - Aw, that's too bad.
I guess we can't play after all.
Hey, guys.
What's the plan? - Okay, okay, okay.
- Aah! - No, no, no, okay.
- (WHIMPERS) Scared.
Aah! (BOTH LAUGHING) Ah.
Hmm.
Ooh.
Gross! No, this is gross.
Oh! And it's lint.
It's lint.
(LAUGHS) Oh, not on me! - Oh! Eww! - (GROANS) (LAUGHING) So, should we play Truth or Dare? No.
Besides, what dares could we really do in here? What about Truth or Truth? That's just a conversation.
I want to do this quiz.
"Find out everything about your BFF.
" Sure, let's do it.
Okay.
"She or he is your best friend forever, right?" Right.
"But how well do you really know them? Ask them these questions and find out!" First question.
"Describe your dream home.
" BOTH: This! - Ah, jinx! - Jinx, jinx! No! I said it first! From sunup, sundown Makin' money, money, money, money You can say what you want Everyday, makin' money, money, money, money The deed, please? Either of you heard from Andi? CYRUS: It's your turn.
(SIGHS) I'm losing already.
Oh! So that's why you don't like this game.
You don't always win.
Nobody wins.
We just become a wolf pack and turn on each other.
Technically, a wolf pack sticks together.
See? I'm already getting that urge to turn on you.
I'm having fun.
Let's play.
Cyrus, do we really wanna do this to him? This upbeat, optimistic person, whose mind has not yet been poisoned by this demon game? We're just preparing him for high school.
That's what you're afraid of? Things with holes? Wait, you love donuts and donuts have holes.
They have one hole.
I don't like things with lots of holes.
A lot of small, icky, mysterious holes.
Like, coral? - (SHUDDERS) - Aerated chocolate? - Aah.
- Honeycomb! - Okay, next question! - (GIGGLES) All right.
"What is your relationship like with your mother?" That's easy.
Perfect.
Oh - And you? - You know what? The answer to this question is getting better.
- Yay.
- I'm enjoying this quiz.
Me too.
All right, next question.
"What do you most regret not saying to someone, and why did you not say it? This is a good one.
I'm not gonna answer that question.
Why not? Because it's a quiz in a magazine, and I don't have to answer a question if I don't want to.
Okay.
Fine.
You don't have to answer the question in the magazine.
Thank you.
Now it's me asking you the question.
Please don't.
What do you most regret not saying to someone, and why did you not say it? I'm not gonna answer that question.
Why not? I'm not gonna answer that one, either.
Huh.
I'll buy it.
CYRUS: That's your third set.
- (DINGS) - BUFFY: I'm going to build some condos.
No, you can't do that after you roll.
You have to do it before you roll.
As long as it's my turn, I can buy condos whenever I want.
It's in the rules.
Show me where.
It's in here somewhere.
Or it's not.
And that's why you can't find it.
Dude, just let her buy the condos.
Oh, I see.
You two have an alliance.
And now you're gonna bleed me dry, and you're gonna love every minute of it, aren't you? I mean we might as well.
I thought we were done with secrets.
This isn't really a secret, it's just something I don't wanna say out loud.
- To you.
- I think you just defined "secret.
" And you and me, we don't have a great track record with secrets.
You are not gonna let this go, are you? We are BFFs.
This is about trust, friendship, family.
I'm your daughter.
Okay.
Here it is.
I regret not saying yes to Bowie when he proposed.
Say something.
You're mad? I'm not mad.
Why would I be mad? Really? I'm not mad.
I'm thrilled! I thought this was the best day ever before, but now it just got even better! Come on, you need to call Bowie and tell him! - Now! - I am not gonna do that.
You mean, you're not gonna do that now.
I mean, I'm not gonna do that ever.
And neither are you.
Noooooo! One hundred and sixteen dollars, please.
I have no money.
I can't pay the rent! You must pay the rent.
I can't pay the rent! I'll pay the rent! Here.
I thought we had an alliance.
We do, but I can have an alliance with him, too can't I? Jonah, you can't be friends with everybody in this game.
You have to pick a side.
You can go with the money-grubbing land baron determined to wipe the rest of us out or you can side with the little guy.
And together, we will both go down in flames, we can't beat her.
We can try.
The game's not over yet.
You have to.
You have to tell him.
Why won't you tell him? It's complicated.
I am so tired of hearing adults tell me it's complicated.
It is only complicated because you make it complicated! Look, it all just happened too fast.
He proposed to me before I was ready, and now it's too late, and he's moved on with his life.
Wait.
Are you saying this is my fault? I'm the reason you two aren't together, because I pushed Bowie to propose? That is not what I said at all.
But it's what you think.
Isn't it? What I think is it's complicated.
That's not a no.
I can't be here.
Ugh! It's over.
How much? You're on Buffy's beachfront resort, with three condos.
It's over.
I'm talkin' to Buffy.
I'm not talking to you.
How much? Six thousand dollars.
And I already owe you, what? Twelve thousand, five hundred and thirty-five dollars.
Not including the six thousand.
The only way you're gonna win now is if you borrow money from another game.
CYRUS: Accept it, buddy.
It's over.
It's not over! Now it's over! You know what I realized? We just had our first big fight as mother and daughter.
Doesn't it feel good to get it out of the way? Hello? I'm comin' in.
Here I come.
I'm right here.
Come on.
We had the best day.
I don't want it to end like this.
Well, we don't always get what we want.
Do we? I was never gonna tell you about Bowie.
But when we were in that fort, I felt like I could tell you anything.
It's very hard being your mother when I also wanna be your best friend.
If you can be so honest with me, why can't you be honest with Bowie? Because he's moved on! I don't wanna stand in his way.
I just I'm afraid I could ruin his life.
That's very considerate of you.
Being so worried that you might ruin Bowie's life.
But what about my life? - Andi - I know, you're sorry.
And for the record, we're still having our first big fight.
Jonah, it happens to all of us.
It wasn't you, we know that.
It was the game.
It wasn't the game.
It was Andi.
- Andi? - She hasn't answered any of my texts, and my calls are going straight to voice mail.
Is she avoiding me? - I don't think so.
- Why would she? Where is this coming from? I know she tells you everything.
What has she said to you? - Nothing.
- About what? Is she breaking up with me? Jonah We have no idea what you're talking about.
- How could she break up with you? - Are you two even together? I told her I wanted us to be a couple.
- You did? - Whoa.
Clearly, she doesn't tell us everything.
The way you kept saying to me during the game, "It's over, it's over, its over," all I could think about was Andi.
Why isn't she getting back to me? She isn't getting back to us, either.
We haven't heard from her all day.
Whatever's going on with her, it isn't about you.
Oh.
You think it's about that guy she met at the bar mitzvah? Which guy? The one she was dancing with? Has she said anything to you about him? You know what's funny? We usually have these conversations with Andi about you.
Why is that funny? Not like funny ha-ha.
More like funny wah-wah.
I have something, um, a problem.
- It's hard to explain.
- Oh, just say it! The suspense is killing me.
What do you do when your teenage daughter hates you? Mm - Mom? - Shh! I'm savoring this moment.
This moment? What moment? The moment when your daughter realizes what it was like to be her mother.
Andi isn't nearly as bad as I was.
Which is lucky, because I would not have been able to handle me.
So what happened? I told Andi I wish I had said yes when Bowie asked me to marry him.
Oh! It's not too late! Yes, it is! No, no, you can call him, call him right now.
(LAUGHS) No! That's what Andi wants, too.
What neither of you seem to realize is that I've already caused enough havoc in everyone's lives.
I'm trying to reduce my havoc quotient.
Okay, that's admirable, - but this is your - Mom, one problem at a time, please! Andi refuses to speak to me.
Or even look at me.
Ooh.
Well, let's be honest.
It's not like I ever really got this right with you.
I know.
But you were Andi's mother for 13 years.
I think you're the mother Andi needs right now.
Oh mm.
Mom? Savoring another moment.
Andi? It's CeCe.
Can I come in? Just me! You can talk to me.
Okay, comin' in.
Andi? BEX: Mom, she's gone.
Andi? Do you wanna tell me what you guys fought about? Does she know where you are right now? I'm gonna have to tell her.
So, it's okay? I can stay with you? Of course.
For as long as you want.
Okay? Can't stop the feeling that the walls are coming down on me Sometimes I walk on the water Sometimes I sink like lead When it all gets too much I never give up ANDI: Next on Andi Mack I'm taking you to one of my favorite art galleries.
ANDI: You have a painting in an art gallery? Wow! I'm being serious.
That's why I brought you here.
I just wanted to see how you were doing.
You know, with your thing.
You're not going to tell Andi, right? They won't let me play basketball, because I can't do some stupid equations.
STUDENTS (CHANTING): Buffy! Buffy! Buffy! TJ: Buffy's been right all along.
I shouldn't have told you about that.
- I'm dead.
Aren't I? - You are so dead.
