Holly Hobbie (2018) s04e05 Episode Script

My mom always says
that you can never make
everyone happy.
Like, fine, okay,
I hear you,
but what if I could?
Oh yay, you're here!
Aw.
(laughing)
Okay, did you bring
everything on the list?
Um, let's see.
Apples, oats, and brown sugar.
Are we making a crumble?
- Ooh, yum!
But no, let's pin that
for later.
I don't care if we spend
the whole afternoon
scrubbing floors, okay?
As long as we
get to spend together.
Just the two of us.
Lately, something or someone
has been getting
in the way of that.
Ugh, I know.
But I hate to break it to you,
it won't be just the two of us.
- Seriously?
What? Look, if we're going
to be together,
you have to accept the fact
that I'm kind of
part of a package deal.
A package deal with who?
(laughing)
My horse Snooker Doodle.
(horse neighing)
Like a horse, horse?
Yeah. Why?
Are you afraid of horses?
It's just, they're so tall
and, you know,
why are their teeth so big?
To chew on the apples
that you brought them.
Oh.
(phone vibrating)
Let me guess, Justin?
Yeah, he has
a few new ideas for a song
that he wants to share.
- Hmm.
I'll just tell him
we're on a date.
Okay, now where were we? Um
(phone vibrating)
He's worried he'll forget them
if he doesn't share them
right away.
So they can't be
that good then, right?
You don't like Justin.
I don't trust him.
I think Justin is interested
in a little more than just
your songwriting ability.
No, that's silly,
are you kidding me?
He could have like
any celebrity he wants.
But you're the girl
he's hanging around right now.
Okay, look. I promise Justin
will never come between us.
(horse neighing)
Hey, Holly.
Thought I'd find ya here.
Ready to get to work?
Except maybe now.
(scoffing)
You and me

Living like a ghost ♪
You hate it, don't you?
No! No, not at all.
It's about a guy
who has feelings for a girl,
but she sees him
as just a friend.
Interesting.
And this is something
that's happened to you?
All the time. I don't know
how it should end.
I think that the boy
should respect
that the girl has a boyfriend.
Hold on, I never said
she has a boyfriend.
You think this song
is about you?
What, ha! No! No, no, no, no.
That would be, that'd be silly.
What's going on
with you today?
You seem kind of freaked out.
Oscar thinks that you
want to kiss me.
(laughing)
Ridiculous, right? I know.
I haven't even
thought of it once.
- Not once?
- No. Have you?
All the time.
- Like today?!
- Yeah.
Well, are you thinking
about it right now?
You're the one
that brought it up.
- Well, stop it!
- You're a very beautiful girl.
We've been working
very closely together.
It would be weird
if I didn't think about it.
You sure? Not once?
Okay. Maybe once.
When I was wearing
that yellow shirt?
- Oh my gosh.
- Brings out the gold
flecks in my eyes.
(chuckling)
Don't worry.
As long as you can resist
my immense charm,
our relationship will remain
strictly professional.
Good for you?
Great. Now let's
get back to work.
(sighs)
Good. You can count on us.
Alright. Hey, hey, hey!
Uh, the gang's going to the park
to play an impromptu game
of baseball.
It's a bit off-season,
but not for us. Up top.
I can't. I have a thing.
What could be more
important than baseball?
Levi. He just got
Intergalactic Space Warriors 4.
- Wow.
- And we have to master it
before everyone else does,
or else we'll never earn enough
stardust rubies
to defeat the big boss.
Wait, wait, wait.
Doesn't Levi have
his dance class on Saturday?
Well, he does,
but they cancelled it today
because the teacher
came down with Norwalk.
Wow. Well, he could bring
the game over here
and we could all play together
like old times.
I can't!
Because it's, you know,
it's just a two-player game.
- Oh.
But maybe next time.
- Okay.
- Sorry, Dad.
What's in the duffle?
Snacks. It's gonna be
a marathon session.
Okay, bye. Love you.
- Have fun.
(inquisitive music)
(exhales deeply)
Justin does have gold flecks
in his eyes, just like Amy.
Really? Never even noticed
them before.
You can only see them
in certain light.
Okay, you know what, girls?
You guys are missing the point.
Justin said he thought
about kissing me!
- So?
- What do I do?
- Kiss him back.
- I have a boyfriend.
Good point. You should
break up with Oscar first.
I am not interested in Justin
in that way.
I just want to know
if I should tell Oscar
what Justin said.
- Oh.
See, now I understand
the problem.
Okay, there is only one thing
to do in this situation.
- Tell him!
- Don't tell him!
It's important to be honest
with the people you care about.
Uh, not if the information
is gonna hurt them.
Oh my
Hypothetical. I found out
that someone said something
terrible about you.
Should I tell you?
Yes. Absolutely!
But it's gonna
make you upset.
I'd be more upset
if I didn't know.
Uh, but you'd never
even find out.
I'd be like
it never even happened.
Okay, you know what,
why don't we just call Piper
to break the tie?
I don't care if it's like
3 a.m. in Paris.
Holly, if you tell Oscar,
he'll start feeling
uncomfortable around Justin,
which will make you feel
uncomfortable.
And if you don't,
everything's great.
As long as you feel
comfortable basing your entire
relationship on a lie.
What are you gonna do?
Finish setting up
for this open mic.
Because if I don't,
it'll be a failure,
which is pretty much the only
thing I'm sure of right now.
(sighs)
Oh, Dad. You've gotta try
this red onion chutney.
I thought it would be delicious
on barbecue chicken.
Yeah. Yeah, totally. Thanks.
You okay?
(sighs)
Have you noticed Heather's
been acting weird lately?
It's almost like
she's hiding something.
- What's your evidence?
- Well, this morning,
I got a call to go to the park
with the gang
and play some baseball.
She said no.
- And?
- That's it.
When have you ever known
Heather to say no to baseball?
Dad, are you sure
you're ready for this?
Oh gosh, you know
what's going on?
If it's bad,
you have to tell me.
I hate to be the one
to rip the Band-Aid off,
but Heather is a teenager now.
And when young people hit
those turbulent years,
they're less interested
in hanging out
with their parents.
Ugh, that's
No, no, no. Not Heather.
Not my bestie.
No. No, if she doesn't
want to hang out,
there is something going on.
(sighs)
I'm gonna find out what it is.
I can't help it,
I can't stand it ♪
The way it feels
when you look through me ♪
(cheering, applause)
Great job Justin,
thank you.
Um, next up is me.
(cheer from crowd)
And I'm going to be singing
a song that I wrote
a long time ago
but that I still love.
It was me, it was you ♪
All the things ♪
- This is a great bop.
- Yeah? We wrote it together.
- Cool.
All our dreams,
everything that we hoped ♪
Listen, I know you don't like
Holly and I working together.
I don't know why
you would think that.
She told me.
Yeah?
What I have ♪
What else did she tell you?
I get why you're jealous.
But don't worry.
As long as Holly wants
to keep our relationship
professional,
that's how it will stay.
Anything with you ♪
Okay, I'm gonna go
get some air.
I know I could do
anything with you ♪
Anything with you ♪
Yeah ♪
(inquisitive music)
(footsteps approaching)
What are you doing
going through my stuff?!
I was worried!
And obviously for good reason!
What is butt glue?
- Get out!
Get out of my room!
- Okay, okay!
But I'm taking this with me.
(scoffs)
(cheering, applause)
Thank you guys
so much for coming.
That's it for tonight.
So, until next time, stay safe.
Excuse me.
Um, hey. Where's Oscar?
He said he needed some air.
So, you didn't say anything
to upset him?
Come on ,Hobbie, I would
never ever do that to you.
Okay.
I just told him that there was
nothing going on between us.
Oh, no.
I was worried you left.
Should we invite Justin
to save you the trouble
of filling him in?
- Ugh.
I was being weird
at our songwriting session
and he asked why.
I don't trust the guy, okay?
He's a huge flirt.
If you came
to one of our sessions,
you'd see that there's
nothing going on.
Okay? We only talk about music.
Except last time.
- Okay.
Oh, o-okay what?
From now on,
I'll come to your sessions.
- All of them?
- Yeah.
If I'm there,
Justin won't try anything.
Plus, maybe I could be of use,
you know.
I do know a thing or two
about music.
(chuckling)
Unless you don't want me there?
- No, no, no, no.
Of course I do.
- Really?!
Yes!
It'll be great, okay?
You'll be able to see
that Justin is just a nice guy
with good intentions
and that there's nothing
going on between us. Who knows?
Maybe even the two of you
will end up being friends.
(scoffs)
Oh, this is going to be great.
Okay, what is going on
between you two?
- Dad was snooping in my room.
- What?!
I knew Heather was hiding
something, and I found it.
What is butt glue?
Something Heather's
been using behind our backs.
You want to know what
the big secret is?
I'm a dancer now! I dance!
And butt glue is for sticking
your body suit in place
so it doesn't ride up
when you move. Happy?
- What type of dance?
- All types.
Ballet, jazz, lyrical, hip-hop.
How long has this
been going on?
Since the beginning
of the school year.
- And you knew about this?
- Well, I did, but Heather,
she asked me to keep it secret
until she was ready to share.
Did something bad
happen at baseball?
- No.
- But dance is so girly.
What?!
I think that it is great
that Heather
is trying new things.
- Thank you.
- And what is wrong with girly?
Well, nothing,
if you're a regular girl.
But Heather is special.
And by special
you mean better?
- I didn't say that.
- Um.
- You kinda did.
- Yeah.
Okay, this is exactly
why I didn't tell you.
And look,
I'm just surprised, alright?
You like sports and video games.
(clears throat)
And those things are better
because they're not girly?
Yeah, you're on your own, Dad.
What about eggs, huh?
Are eggs girly? Or toast?
And sausage? I mean,
these things, they must be girly
because, well, I like them.
- No.
- Girls.
Why don't we take
our girly breakfast outside?
Mom, you coming?
- Oh, yeah.
It's gonna take so much work
for you to get
out of this, babe.
(door opening and closing)
Hobbie, I couldn't get
any sleep last night.
I got this idea for a bridge
that's gonna blow you away.
Uh, okay,
there's actually something
I have to tell you first.
You've been thinking about
what we talked about last time?
You do want to kiss me!
Okay, but just one.
Come on.
Okay, rip the Band-Aid off.
- I brought snacks!
Oscar thought that it would be
super fun to sit in
on one of our
songwriting sessions
to see how well
we work together.
He's right. This will be fun.
Let's do this.
Okay, great.
Oh, uh, Justin usually
sits here.
Be my guest.
Okay, so you said that you
wanted to talk about the bridge?
That can wait. I just got
an idea for another song.
Have you ever been
in a relationship
where the person holds on
so tight you feel crushed?
No.
(chuckling nervously)
Everywhere that I go ♪
I'll see you, I know ♪
I can't breathe
when you're here ♪
Why are you so insecure ♪
What do you think, Oscar?
Sounds a little
too pop for me.
Oh, I like that.
You say I sound
a little too pop ♪
Why can't you stop ♪
Putting me down
just to keep me around ♪
Uh
'Cause without space ♪
I can't grow ♪
So if you care for me ♪
Just let me be ♪
Like a wildflower ♪
Yes ,Holly, yes!
That was genius.
It was your verse
that was the inspiration.
This is why we make
such a great team.
Oh, what if we made this a duet?
We can record it together.
Oscar, did you hear that?
He wants to record with me!
Yeah, I heard it.
Can you take your hand off her?
I'm sensing a little tension.
You're trying to steal
her from me.
- Oscar!
- Steal her?
Is she your possession?
- You know what? Um
Why don't we just try and work
on the next verse, okay?
Not with this guy.
From now on, no Oscars allowed
at our songwriting sessions.
Like I was going to leave
her alone with you.
Oscar! He was just frustrated
because you were at our session!
So you guys wouldn't flirt.
Actually, what am I even saying?
Because that didn't
stop you at all.
"Oh, Holly, that was such
a genius idea!"
"Thanks, Justin,
I love yours too!"
Okay, you know what?
You have to admit
the song is good!
- He came up with it
to get under my skin.
And why did you tell him
about our conversation?
I already said that I'm sorry.
I know.
I gotta go.
(sighs)
There you are.
Have you recovered from
your gender essentialist
meltdown?
I bought her this glove
after we won
the county championships.
I know. I mean, you two,
you have a lot of good memories
on that field.
Why dance?
Why not lacrosse or soccer?
Sweetie, kids are gonna like
what they're gonna like,
and I really, I do not think
that this is about dance.
Well, I'm gonna lose her
to all the girly stuff
like I lost Holly.
- Okay, first of all,
you didn't lose Holly,
and second of all, I mean,
why do people use "girly"
as a word
that's synonymous with bad?
I don't know anything
about dance.
- Well, you learn.
- Ugh.
You see this picture?
You two smiling,
this is not about baseball.
This is about you two
being together
and her knowing that her dad
has her back.
Right?
(soft music)
(knocking)
Hi!
- Leave me alone.
I'm wallowing.
- Well
So sorry to interrupt,
but what kind of a mother
would I be
if I didn't at least
try to cheer you up?
Ooh, are these s'more bars?
- Fresh from the oven.
- I want this one.
Mm. So good.
- Feel better?
- No.
(laughing)
But maybe if I have another one?
- No, no.
Not until you tell me
what's wrong.
Really? You too?
Ugh. I'm so sick
of everyone's stupid rules.
(sighs)
Fine.
Oscar feels jealous of Justin
which I get,
because Justin can be flirty.
- Okay.
- So Oscar's solution
was to make a rule
that he has to sit and watch
all of our songwriting sessions.
But Justin, for some reason,
feels like he can't work
when Oscar's around.
And so, Justin decided
to also make a rule
that he won't work
unless it's just the two of us.
- Got it.
- And I don't want to make
Oscar upset but I mean,
I also don't want to lose out
on this opportunity with Justin.
(distant horse neighing)
And the worst part is,
is that it's
I mean, it's all my fault
because I decided to tell Justin
that Oscar was jealous.
I mean, if you have
to change who you are
to be in a relationship
It's not a good relationship.
I need to talk to Oscar,
don't I?
Mm-hmm.
I guess we need
to talk about things.
(sighs)
Oscar, all I want is a guy
who is nice to me, respects me,
and supports my dreams.
I still don't trust Justin.
You don't have to.
You have to trust me.
And if you can't do that,
then
I'm not sure that we should
go out anymore.
(birds chirping)
I still don't like him.
I know.
(chuckling)
But I trust you.
And I'm sorry
if I made it seem like I didn't.
Okay.
(phone vibrating)
Justin?
Yeah, um
I'm gonna go ahead
and take this.
I've had some
song ideas that I've actually
been wanting
to talk to him about.
Of course.
Okay.
Hey.
Yeah, no, I actually think
that I had a breakthrough
with the pre-chorus.
(soft music)
Hey! I wanna show
you something.
- I have a lot of homework.
- It'll only take a minute.
Come on.
So, there's nothing wrong
with dance or girly stuff.
I was just worried I wouldn't
have a place in your life.
And so, I got you something.
A dance bar?
I'd like to be involved.
That is if you
want me to be.
If you insist.
Great.
First off, you gotta teach me
a couple dance moves.
This is what we did
in class today, okay?
- Oh my goodness.
- Okay? Yeah? Slower.
Five, six, seven, eight.
- Whew.
- Three, four
five, six
- Hmm? Oh.
Don't tell me
how to play my guitar ♪
When I'm playing my guitar ♪
Come on, are you seriously
trying to school me ♪
Boys will be boys,
that's what they say ♪
To look the other way ♪
Well, these rules
ain't working for me ♪
They need updating ♪
One, don't tell me
what I already know ♪
'Cause it makes you
feel smarter than me ♪
Two, don't call me
those names ♪
And tell me how thick
that my skin should be ♪
Three, come on,
you don't have to be a jerk ♪
You can just be friendly ♪
Don't put us down

Sing with me ♪
This one's for the boys ♪
Who put away the toys ♪
Stand up and make some noise ♪
Hey yeah, for the boys ♪
Yeah ♪
What did Oscar
think of that?
It's not just about him.
When you flirt with me,
it makes me uncomfortable.
- I don't mean any harm.
- I know.
But in this space,
where we work.
It has to be a no flirt zone.
And if you can't agree
to that, then
I'm not sure that we can
work together anymore.
(scoffs)
Okay. Is there a contract
you want me to sign?
Your word is good enough,
I trust you.
(Holly): Turns out Mom
was right.
The only emotions
you control are your own.
I mean, plus,
who wants to be in charge
of someone else's emotions?
Mine take up
enough time as it is.
(laughing)
This one's for the boys ♪
Who put away the toys ♪
Stand up and make some noise ♪
Hey yeah, hey yeah ♪
It's time to lead the guys ♪
Who never get it right ♪
