A Very Inconvenient Truth

No, no, she's fine, I gave her a little something, and she slept like a baby.
Tell them I'm sorry, tell them I suck.
I think I hear her standing, let me call you back Ethan.
You're not making this any easier.
Yeah, you're the one who talk.
Come on, we're in L.
A.
now, everything is beautiful.
Yeah, except everybody thinks that I'm a total fraud.
Not anymore, they don't.
I'm afraid to ask.
Dr.
Avery went on "Access Hollywood" this morning and took full responsibility for what happened.
Who is Dr.
Avery? You don't remember Dr.
Avery? The ear, nose and throat specialist who examined you in New York City and insisted you do nothing to strain your vocal cords? - No one's going to buy that.
- Ashley bought it.
I'll be back.
Damn! Hey, I can do that.
I know you're still mad at me.
And I don't blame you.
I should have told you that I was lip-synching before we went onstage.
Damn right, you should have.
You're speaking to me, that's encouraging.
Look, I'm not happy that our debut was ruined.
I'm actually furious.
But I know you were sick and it could have been a lot more worse.
You could have pulled a Lindsay Lohan and flash everyone your business.
I can't sing.
Yes, you can, Kyla.
You have so much potential, look at what you did with the single.
Don't worry, our next show will be perfect.
No, it won't.
Because that wasn't me on the record.
What? They they dubbed in someone else's voice.
- Who did it? - Don't make me answer that.
- Ashley - Stop Here's what's going to happen.
You are going to come clean about your charade to everybody, and I mean the entire planet, because if you don't, I will, do you understand? - Yes, I do, I, can I just - That was my dream.
It was everything I ever wanted and you just trashed it.
I know.
Can I just say one thing to ? - No.
- Please? No.
Because I honestly couldn't care less what you have to say right now.
From here on now you're on your own.
- Where are you? - On the road to oblivion? I know, I'm so sorry.
I keep getting this call about the show.
Spencer, please, can we just never talk about the show again? I hear you.
I really need somewhere to hide from the media and just resist the temptation to strangle Kyla.
Well you're in luck.
My dad and Glen are going camping and my mom's doing a duple shift.
Place to ourselves? Ok, well, yay, now we have our own little fiesta.
We can do whatever we want.
This is so cool.
I mean, is not wonder that judges picked your design.
Thanks.
You know, I would have jumped from competition if wasn't for you.
Yeah, but I'm bailing on you when you need me the most.
Oh my gosh, you're going to love camping in the Sierras.
I don't know.
There was supposed to have a big mosquito infestation this year.
Why are you being so silly? Clay said that you guys used to go fishing together all the time.
No, they would go fishing together all the time.
And hiking.
And all that other boy scout-y stuff.
I'll just sit in the tent playing Tetris.
Glen, would you be positive? Father son bonding, supposed to be a good thing? Yeah, you're right.
He did reach out to me.
I mean, something.
Means you're going to have a great time.
Now we need Two propane canisters coming up.
- Right, in the garage next to - I know, dad.
I know.
You told me exactly where they are.
Alright, great.
I'm sorry.
Hey.
You're just going away for the weekend or you checking in the Himalayas? Hey, I'm just bringing the basics.
- Hey.
Here you go, sir.
- Thank you, young man.
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr.
Robbie Knievel.
Where's everybody going? Oh, no, not everybody.
Just the boys.
Dude, I came by because I thought that we were going to the gym.
I forgot, man.
I'm sorry.
We're huh we're going camping.
We're going fly fishing in the Sierras.
Cool.
You know, my uncle fishes on his boat in Catalina but you know, I never really learned How to cast the line.
You want to come? I bet you'll be pitching like a pro in 2 hours.
Really? Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back.
It's tempting, but Just go.
Look, I don't want to intrude or anything.
Intrude? Are you kidding me? I've got plenty of room, I've got extra gear and inside this ice chest I've got prime filets that have been marinated in ponzu sauce for 36 hours, strike me dead.
I'm in, ok? I'm in.
You don't mind, do you? Hey, as long as I don't get choked out, it's all good.
Fine by me.
Great.
Well, next stop: Current River.
Let's go! - Hey.
- Hi.
This is going to be so good.
Oh, it's going to be better than good.
It's going to be out of this world.
- I meant the food.
- Oh.
Look at you.
You are you wearing my robe.
I know, I always wanted to be naked in the Carlin home.
Without being stopped and pulled out by my hair.
Who's that? - Remember me? - Of course.
Come in.
Sure.
Thanks.
So listen.
Lily was telling me that you were going to get into documentaries, so I thought I'd bring over my personal favorites.
I hope it's not weird me stopping by like this.
- Hi.
- Oh.
You totally have company.
- Oh, no, no.
- I'm going No, no it's fine.
Ashley, this is Jonica.
Jonica is actually friend of Lily's.
Jonica? That's different.
Yeah sort of a typo, but it stuck.
I'm thinking about changing my name to Fred.
- Did you like want to stay for a bit or something? - For a minute? Sure, thanks.
Cool.
I'm just going to go upstairs and change into something less comfortable.
Come in.
Alright, I will.
Ethan wants you to know he still loves you.
Oh, I'm glad somebody does.
Somebody need a little mood enhancer? No, that's what got me into trouble in the first place.
Tell you what: why don't you do your most chill yoga routine and then No, no, listen to this, ok? Look.
"Kyla is a pile of you know what.
" Or oh, look at this.
"She's a bogus, no talent a la Ashlee Simpson.
" Or Doesn't matter.
They didn't have Ethan Marks doing damage control.
It's way too late for damage control, Jake.
If my fans aren't buying into the spin, who will? Believe me.
The second you get back up on stage, bam, you'll smack back into everybody's hearts again.
Yeah, and then I'll have to lip sync again.
Why are you being so negative? This is L.
A.
your support network is here.
Ethan had everybody sign off.
Ashley signed off? Ashley, unlike you, actually likes performing.
I told her that my voice was dubbed, Jake.
I had to tell.
She's family.
I don't care if she was the damn Pope, you don't confess to anything unless I give you permission.
Come on, can we talk about this? What's there to talk about? Our little P.
R.
problem is a raging disaster, thanks to you.
Anytime, Glen.
You know, I said I wasn't sure.
We could have gone back.
Dude, we're here now alright? You misread the map, it's not big deal.
I missed one turn.
And I spent the last hour twisting a mile road with the sun in my eyes.
Something stinks.
The skunks are very territorial so No, no, no, like, one died in the trunk.
Oh, oh, God.
The steaks are rotten.
Glen, how could you didn't put the ice in the chest? Oh.
Was I, was I supposed to do that? Ashley? That's why you look familiar.
You are Ashley Davies, aren't you? With a naughty sister? Oh, can we not go there? Yeah I was going to say the same thing.
Sorry.
I wouldn't seem to piss people off whenever I'm in this house.
You've been in this house before? Yeah.
And her grandma freaked when I flirted with the birthday girl.
I'll may get dinner.
We're back in the game.
I can fix this.
Look, I know I was out of line before.
I was mad at myself for not staying hardly covered, but now I know how to make your fans emotionally attached to your life again.
What if you were to disappear.
Or you were to be kidnapped.
Your mental state is precarious, people get caught up in the drama.
Are you safe? Are you hiding? Are you the victim of a play? Well, which one is it? See, it doesn't matter.
It's all about manipulating perception.
Wow.
I really can't believe that I trusted you.
Wait until you hear they found you.
I do not need to know.
I'm going to have a press conference, and I'm going to tell everybody the truth.
and that is how people are going to discover who I am.
See, you do that, and you'll be on your own, little girl, and I'll have nothing to do with you do you understand? Jake, I do not need you.
I thought I did for a second, but I don't.
You don't want to get on my bad side, Kyla.
Madison tried to warn me and tell me that you were a slizz.
I should have listened.
You should listen now.
If you go to the press and you will deeply regret it.
The only thing that I regret, is the time that I wasted on you.
Nothing quiet like sitting around the can fire eating peanut butter jelly.
We could have grilled the steaks.
Grilled them? They smelled so bad we couldn't even get near them.
How could you not check to make sure there was ice in the ice chest? Well, I put the ice in the freezer so it wouldn't melt.
If you put the ice in the ice chest it wouldn't melted.
Maybe next time bring hotdogs? Next time do what I ask you to do.
Maybe next time if there ever is a next time.
- Who's hot for another PB & J? - Why not.
Not really hungry.
Thanks though.
Well, for most people being in mountains increases their appetite.
Well I guess I'm not most people then.
So what's on the game plan for tomorrow? Reel early and often.
Check out these fly's that I tied.
Sweet! When we get home, I was thinking in a lemon tart glaze.
You know what'll be better? How about It was so nice meeting you, Ashley.
It was nice meeting you too, Fred.
Give a Lily a hug from me.
Goodbye.
Bye.
Wow.
Come on.
You kinda liked her.
Not as much as she liked you.
Ash Look, she had a crush on you, it's blatant.
I should have Aiden keep an eye on you while I was in New York.
Well, who kept an eye you? Wait.
Are we fighting? No, come here.
That's ok.
No, it's Kyla.
Oh my God, she's holding a press conference.
Thank you all for coming.
I I wanted to set the record straight before too much time had passed.
I was not sick in New York.
That's not the reason why I was lip synching at the concert.
You see, that's not even really my voice, on that track.
I tried to fool everybody, including my own sister Ashley, who knew nothing about my deception.
It was all my doing.
I'm responsible for everything.
And I am embarrassed and ashamed and I wanted to apologize.
First, to my sister Ashley, who unlike me, seriously talented and my best friend in the whole world and, to my father, Rafe.
I'm so sorry, dad.
Your music deserves so much more.
Finally, to all my friends on the web and anybody else that I let down.
I hope that you can find a way to forgive me.
Ok guys, we've made it.
Everybody else set? Alright, lights out.
Wait.
I should go take a pee.
Ok, take the flashlight don't go too far from the tent.
Glen! That's it.
I'm done, I had enough.
I don't even know why I'm here.
I hate camping.
I hate fishing.
And I hate stinking tents.
You didn't even want me here.
You do not relate to me.
You don't even want me as your son.
Just adopt Aiden.
- Glen? - No.
Forget this.
I thought that, you checked out for the nigh.
I came back.
So you saw that? I saw.
And? I'm so sorry.
I really blew it.
Hey.
How long you've been up? A while.
Me too.
I didn't sleep so well.
I'm thinking about what you said last night.
Where's this coming from? You want to talk about the family history? Walk the Carlin family timeline? If mom wouldn't never gotten pregnant with me you would have been able to finish medical school.
That's not the only reason I dropped out.
No, but it played into it.
When Clay was alive he was your go to guy.
When he died I started thinking.
Go on.
No, I don't want to be analyzed.
We're having a conversation.
I mean, you've always been able to talk to me.
I started thinking, at least I'll never be compared to Clay again.
I'll be number one by default.
And now you have Aiden.
Don't blame Aiden.
I don't I'm not.
Aiden is my boy, we're cool.
It's you and I tha I know.
And it scares me.
Since we moved to LA you've dropped out sports, give an strike on painkillers, fired from two jobs you're not in school, and you're showing no sense of direction.
Tell me something I don't know.
Ok.
There is something that you may have forgotten.
Back in Ohio before you blow out your knee, you were a star athlete.
Watching you play was like poetry.
You volunteer on weekends.
Or get straight A's, you were pulling down solid B's.
The first on the field, last on off.
All the other kids looked up to you.
That didn't come from me or your mother.
It had nothing to do with camping.
It's something you made it yourself.
You did it.
Something special.
What happened to that Glen? I don't know.
I guess he's been in the slump lately.
You tell him it's time to break out of that slump.
Not for Clay, or for me But because he is one of the most incredible people I know.
And when he does, tell him his old man will be on the side lines cheering for him.
Will you do that for me? It never ends.
- What? - Check this out.
"Kyla's Midnight confession.
" God, it must be the press conference.
No, it says it's brand new.
I hate on having to lie about him.
Rafe Davies was a drugged out absenty loser of a father who never gave a crap about his kids, and now I have to sing a crappy song by him.
What a joke.
Oh gosh, and then there's Ashley.
Uh! love Ashley.
Not in like a gay way or anything because obviously we're sisters, you know? But, not that it would really stop her because she's such a whore.
I'm just kidding.
Fool! Gosh No, but seriously, she is kind of though.
She's got girlfriends, she's got boyfriends, she's got friends with benefits She even did it with our producer, I swear to God.
I don't know what to say.
You've said enough.
