Austin and Ally s03e12 Episode Script

I guess now is the time where I ask What are you doing? Practicing my parade wave.
Since Dez is a cheerleader, he's gonna be on their float in the homecoming parade.
So what's the theme of the cheerleader float this year? Funny you should ask.
I'm the one building it.
The theme is gonna be "the ocean world or habitat, if you will of our mascot, the majestic Marino High manatee, sometimes referred to as the sea cow.
" Ally, I have some big news.
I just got off the phone with Ronnie Ramone.
He wants you to write a song with Gavin Young.
Gavin Young, that hot new country singer? No, Gavin Young, that hot new I'm gonna try to steal him as a client, country singer.
I don't know.
I'm not sure if I want to work with him.
- Why not? - I'd be doing all the work.
He's just some pretty boy who probably knows nothing about music.
You don't know that.
We happen to know a guy who's proven that being pretty doesn't mean you're not talented.
Thank you, Trish.
I was talking about Austin.
- Oh.
- Thanks.
And Trish is right.
I think you should work with Gavin.
Really? You don't mind me writing with someone else? No.
It's only one song.
And it'd be good for your career.
You're right.
Okay, Trish.
Tell Ronnie I'll do it.
Great, I'll call him.
While you do that, I'm gonna practice my parade wave.
Oh, are you working on yours too? No, I just want you to leave.
Bye-bye.
Hey.
You want to work on a new song? I can't.
I have that meeting I have a feeling I'll be writing his songs while he just sits there styling his hair.
How does he get it like that? He uses a texture cream.
It's healthy for your roots and has great hold.
I mean, that's just a guess.
Everyone, I'd like you to meet Gavin Young.
Gavin, meet Austin and Ally, my two most successful clients.
We're your only clients.
Shh! It's nice to meet you, Ally.
I'm sorry I'm late.
I came across a sign for a lost basset hound and I couldn't not look for it.
Aww.
And then when I finally found Barnaby, I couldn't return him without giving him a bath first.
And then I brushed his teeth and bought him a new chew toy, and well, y'all know how that goes.
Yeah, I helped a hurt squirrel once.
Then it bit me and I had to get a dozen rabies shots.
Stupid squirrels.
Anyway, great to meet you.
Uh Texture cream? Yeah, I can't believe you noticed.
I noticed that about you when I saw the magazine.
Okay, guys! Ally and Gavin have to get to work.
See, that's the kind of manager I am.
Sign with me and I'll keep you focused.
Uh, thanks, but I already have a great manager.
And it'd just break his little heart if I left him.
Ugh, do you really want to be repped by a sensitive crybaby like that? Okay, Gavin.
Songwriting can be complicated, so I'll keep it simple for you.
What's with all them black dots and lines and stuff up there? Oh boy, it's worse than I thought.
I know that's a major pentatonic scale.
I've been studying music theory since I was three.
Okay, wow.
Then this is gonna be fun.
I've never written with anybody who knows as much about music as I do.
What about me? You okay, Austin? You ought to get that cough checked out.
Kimmy, you're gonna love my float design.
It's called "the ocean world or habitat, if you will, the majestic Marino high manatee, sometimes referred to as the sea cow.
" Wow, that's a long title, but I love the float! Yes! I'll start building it.
Not so fast, red.
What are you doing here, Chuck? I've got some Float designs of my own.
Bunnies, really? Wrong page.
I just like drawing bunnies.
Since homecoming revolves around football, my float's gonna have a quarterback that hurls footballs as far as the eye can see.
Ooh, I like that.
A football themed float is perfect since homecoming revolves around football.
Yeah, that's literally what I just said.
But Kimmy, I thought we decided on doing "the ocean world or habitat, if you will, of our mascot, the majestic Marino high manatee, sometimes referred to as the sea cow"! I don't care what you two do, as long as we win best float.
Well, let's get started on my manatee float.
It's clearly the winner.
I don't think so.
My float's such a winner, when people win the lottery, they'll say "Congratulations, you are the lucky Chuck's float.
" Oh yeah? My float's such a winner, it'll win the Oscar for best picture, best supporting actress, and Oh yeah, best float.
My float's such a winner, they'll have parades in its honor.
My float will have floats.
Whoa.
That sounded good, Gavin.
You know what would make it sound better? A new manager! I owe it all to Ally.
She's such an amazing songwriter.
Me? You're the one who came up with that awesome melody.
I couldn't have done it without your suggestion to do it in "e" flat.
Did you hear about that story of when "e" flat, "g" flat, and "b" flat tried to rent a car? The guy behind the counter said "I'm sorry.
I can't rent to minors.
" Well, of course not.
He'd get in "treble.
" What did you do, Ally? He was so cool when he walked in here.
It was nice meeting you, Gavin.
Ally, you ready to work on my song now? Ooh, can we do that tomorrow? Gavin and I are gonna work on another song.
It's a duet.
Another song? I thought you were just doing one.
Well, we make a good team.
We're really in "tune" with each other.
Oh, Gavin.
That's so "clef" -er.
Ooh, I got one.
You know you can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish! Come on, Austin.
Let's get you out of here.
I think their dorkiness is rubbing off on you.
They were supposed to do just one song.
Now they're doing another? Where will it end? Well, hopefully it'll end when Gavin finishes his album, wins a grammy, and thanks me in front of a billion people for being his manager.
But if she keeps writing with him, where does that leave me? I wouldn't have a career without Ally.
Don't worry.
I won't drop you.
Even the biggest managers have small clients.
I can't believe Ally missed another team meeting.
I haven't been able to work with her all week because of Gavin.
I'm losing my writing partner.
It only feels that way because she's spending so much time writing with Gavin and no time with you.
Uh, yeah.
You have to help me steal back Ally from Gavin.
Why would I do that? I'm trying to sign him as a client.
That's not gonna happen.
He's already got a hotshot manager.
You're not gonna sign Gavin, and you're gonna lose Ally too.
What do you mean? He took her from me.
It's only a matter of time before he takes her from you.
"Hey, Ally.
Why don't you meet my hotshot manager, and you can borrow my pen to sign a new contract.
Actually, keep the pen.
'Cause I'm just that nice.
" Oh no.
A power outage.
You can't write songs in the dark.
Guess you'll have to stop.
Man, that stinks.
I was really having fun.
Wait.
I think I have some candles.
Candles? Oh, I like it.
It's kind of romantic.
Yeah.
It sets the perfect mood to write our duet.
Lights on, lights on! Sorry to interrupt, but I really need your help, Ally.
Um, can't it wait? No, this is really important.
I'm trying to finish the melody to a song that we were supposed to write together.
Should it go "bum bum bum bum" or "Bum bum bum boom"? You're hitting the same note.
You're just saying "boom" instead of "bum.
" And that's why I need you.
And I need you To leave.
Hey, when I'm done with Ally, I'll help you, buddy.
I'm good.
Here comes Ally.
Act like it's a real emergency.
- Just don't overdo it.
- Don't worry.
I'll make it natural.
Don't you give up, Austin! You have too much to live for! What's the emergency? I came as soon as Trish called.
I have a splinter.
That's the emergency? That's not even a splinter.
You just drew on your finger.
It's like half football theme and half manatee.
This has no chance of winning best float.
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho.
My half will.
When I push this button, the manatee's gonna flip his tail and yell "go manatees!" Saboteur.
I don't know what you're talking about, red.
Seriously.
I don't know what "saboteur" means because I don't speak French.
Check out my side, darlin'.
The quarterback's gonna throw footballs and yell "touchdown!" You're the saboteur.
I thought you didn't speak French.
I lied.
You're gonna pay for this, red.
Or should I say Enough! You two better build a new float or you're both off the squad.
Bye.
I don't want to be kicked off the team.
Me neither.
We're gonna have to learn to work together.
No more fighting, no more one-upping each other.
Deal.
Ally, can I see you for a second? What is it this time? Your back itches and you want me to scratch it for you? That's not what I wanted to talk to you about, but now that you mention it Guess that's a "no.
" Ooh.
Anyways, I need to talk to you, but it's kind of private.
Oh, that's fine.
I need to go call some fans, wish them a good night.
You know how that goes.
No one knows how that goes.
Austin, what's up? You tell me.
We need to work on my music, but you never make time for me anymore.
I can't just leave Gavin.
You wouldn't like it if I left you I wouldn't mind if you left writing with me if it was to write with me.
That makes no sense.
Look.
You have to decide.
Is it gonna be "Austin and Ally," or "Gavin and Ally?" You're not seriously asking me to choose between you and Gavin, are you? Yeah.
I guess I am.
Ally's still upset.
Why did you make her choose between you and Gavin? I don't know.
Why did the waitress make me choose between a soup and salad? Because all entrees come with one side.
You know what I think? You still want to be with Ally, and Gavin's getting in the way.
What are you talking about? Ally and I agreed to just be friends.
Look, this is a simple case of boy meets girl, boy doesn't want girl until boy sees girl with another boy, then boy wants girl back.
Then boy one goes to boy three.
You're boy one, I'm boy three.
I thought it was supposed to be simple.
Is this about more than just work? I guess so.
I realized I still like Ally.
And I want to get back together with her.
Here we go again.
Are you sure you want to go down that road? 'Cause it was awfully bumpy last time.
And we all got a little carsick.
I'm sure.
I'm gonna go talk to her.
That was sweet.
But I'm still mad at you.
I'm really sorry, Ally.
You don't have to choose between me and Gavin.
Look, there's something I want to tell you.
One decaf iced mocha with half soy milk, half low-fat milk, with light whip and caramel drizzle.
Aww, you remembered.
Lucky guess.
Ally, I need to ask you something.
Oh, sure.
In a sec.
Austin just wanted to tell me something first.
I can do it later.
Oh, hey, Austin.
So I carved you a back scratcher.
Seriously? Listen, I was thinking.
How would you like to perform this duet with me? Really? That would be great.
We could try it out at the homecoming pep rAlly.
Perfect.
All right, listen.
What I wanted to ask you is Will you go on a date with me? Whoa, really? Spending all this time with you makes me realize how much I like you.
I don't know what to say.
Oh, I shouldn't have sprung all this on you.
Why don't you take some time to think about it? Gavin, wait.
Yeah? Could you leave my mocha? Great job, guys.
We'll definitely win best float.
Just bring it out to the track and I'll see you at the parade.
Go manatees! I told you we'd make a great team.
Yeah.
I got to have my football launcher, and you were able to have your manatee.
A perfect compromise.
Yeah, we're both geniuses.
People won't look up words in the dictionary.
They'll look up words in the "Dez and Chuck-tionary.
" We're so smart, students with straight "A"s won't be called valedictorians.
They'll be called "vale-Chuck-and-Dez-atorians.
" Good one.
Now let's get this float out to the track for the parade.
Whoo! Did we ever discuss how we were gonna get this thing out the door? Nope.
Hello, Marino high! Whoo! I'm absolutely furious the cheerleaders don't have a float, but this is a pep rAlly, so I have to be peppy! Whoo! Anyway, we have a surprise.
Our very own Ally Dawson, and special guest, country star Gavin Young! Whoo! Hey, y'all.
Thanks for having me.
To be singing with this beautiful, talented young girl right here.
Thanks, Gavin.
This song is called "me and you.
" Ally, you guys were awesome up there.
Thanks, Austin.
I'm glad you liked it.
Hey, there's something I want to tell you.
Me too.
You go first.
No, you go first.
Okay, I'll go first.
That I'm not gonna be working with Gavin anymore.
Yes! I mean, aww, why? I thought you guys wrote so well together.
But I just don't want it to complicate things.
How would it complicate things? Because Gavin and I shouldn't work together if we're going to date.
Wait.
You guys are dating? He asked me out.
So I'm gonna go on a date with him.
Oh, man.
I should have gone first.
That's great.
You guys will have fun.
So you're good? So how'd it go? We're not getting back together.
She's going out with Gavin.
I'm really sorry, Austin.
So you don't happen to know if Gavin mentioned anything about me becoming his manager? We're really sorry for messing up this year's homecoming float.
But before you kick us off the squad, let us show you our idea for next year's float.
This better be good.
Trust us.
I don't get it.
I thought we were supposed to be corn dogs.
People love food on a stick.
No, we agreed to do bunnies.
People love Fluffy things that hop.
- Corn dogs.
- Bunnies.
- Corn dogs.
- Bunnies.
- Corn dogs! - Bunnies! - Corn dogs! - Bunnies! - Corn dogs! - Bunnies!
