Felicity s04e19 Episode Script

Previously on Felicity.
I thought it was one time and now I find out it was a month.
I wish I could go back to that night.
On the roof.
The night that I slept with Noel.
Oh, my God! I don't even remember coming up here.
I must have blacked out.
Meghan, you did a spell on me and it worked.
So what does this mean? Are we? Yeah.
Dear Sally.
Okay, you're not gonna believe this, but remember last week when I told you I was stuck in the past? Well, I'm still here and now something's happening which makes me wish I wasn't.
As you know, Noel and I started going out.
And the thing is it began really well.
Don't stop for me.
I've seen this domination-submission thing before.
- We were doing laundry.
- Watching TV.
Whatever.
I don't judge but only because I don't care.
- Do you wanna get out of here? - Yes.
Given the awkward situation, we felt like we should try and be discreet.
So we started going places where we wouldn't run into anyone we knew.
This is the famous fried dough.
You need to try it.
You'll thank me.
- Okay.
- First time.
All right.
Here we go.
It's actually good considering it's called fried dough.
The irony is in avoiding all of our friends, we ran into someone else.
Noel! - I'm sorry.
Noel! - Hanna? Someone who's become kind of a problem.
I was thinking about you the other day.
How are you? I'm great, yeah.
Wow, it's been like - It's been like three years.
- Yeah.
Hey, Hanna.
You remember Felicity? - Of course.
It's good to see you.
- You too.
- You got just a little bit of sugar - Oh, my God.
Sorry.
It's from the thing.
- So what have you been up to? - I'm just I'm looking for a job.
- Yeah.
Me too.
- You're teaching.
Which is great.
When I get a chance.
I spend most of my time begging for students.
Looking for work is so hard.
Sometimes I think it's the only thing I can do.
Come on.
You should see the websites he designs.
They're incredible.
Really? Maybe you should do one for me.
I could get students off the Internet.
Yeah.
Sure.
- I mean, I'd pay you, obviously.
- I'd do it for free.
Well, look I have to run.
You should definitely call me.
Okay.
Well Do you have a pen? - Her number's on the flyer.
- There it is.
- Okay, yeah.
Sure.
- I'm so glad I saw you.
Yes.
It's great.
Great.
And then Hanna hugged me.
Okay.
That's not exactly the truth.
I hugged her.
I felt so stupid standing there.
I had to do something.
- Hey.
Well, see you guys.
- Okay.
- That was weird.
- No.
That wasn't weird at all.
* Can you become * * Can you become * * A new version of you? * * New wallpaper * * New shoe leather * * A new way home * * I don't remember * * A new version of you * * I need a new version of me * * A new version of you * * I need a new version of me * I don't think we can hang out here.
I just ran into Sean and we had the most awkward conversation we've ever had.
Okay, tomorrow doesn't work.
What about the weekend? No? You are the busiest unemployed person I've ever known.
- Is that Hanna? - Right.
Yeah.
He lives here? Didn't he like go into the army or something? Right.
Yeah, that works for me.
It'll take like an hour.
Okay.
I'll see you then.
Yeah.
You too.
Bye.
- You called Hanna? - No, Hanna called me.
She had some ideas about the website.
Wow.
She didn't waste any time.
It'll be good practice, you know that.
- You don't want me to do this, do you? - No.
I just - This just wasn't supposed to happen.
- What does that mean? You haven't seen her since your freshman year and all of a sudden she's right there.
Where did she come from? She didn't "come from" anywhere.
- We ran into her in the street.
- I know that.
I just - I wasn't expecting her.
- Neither was I.
I know.
Sorry.
- Look, if you don't want me to - No.
I do.
It's fine.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Please do it.
Seriously.
I cannot believe he's doing it.
- I thought you told him to.
- Yes, but I didn't mean it.
This is not how this was supposed to happen.
- Hanna wasn't here before.
- Before? Yeah.
Before.
Last time around.
She wasn't here.
What is she doing here now? Have you never heard of the time-space continuum? You change one thing, everything changes.
- Choosing Noel changed everything? - Yes! And so does eating cereal and watching crappy daytime TV.
It's all different.
The ripple effect.
One little decision is not just one little decision.
Oh, my God.
You're right.
This is my fault.
Last time we didn't go to the street fair.
We went today to avoid Ben.
- Who you were going out with last time.
- The ripple effect.
Next time be a more responsible time traveler.
By the way, are you ever going to class? - Why? I already graduated.
- I forgot.
You might check with UNY, make sure they accept time-travel credits.
Unless you brought your future diploma.
Otherwise you could be screwed.
You're right.
Maybe I should go.
Meghan, all this time-space continuum stuff you're talking about.
Does this mean you actually believe me? What, that you actually traveled back from the future? No.
I might be weird.
I'm not a freakshow.
- Excuse me, Mister Serious Student.
- Sorry.
I'll get back to work.
Forget the work.
I need a favor.
Okay.
I have decided to audition for Man of La Mancha, which, you have to admit, I'm perfect for.
- What's Man of La Mancha? - You're kidding? No, I'm not kidding.
It's one of the greatest musicals of all time.
It's the story of a man who thinks he's Don Quixote, the great Spanish knight who believes in love and dreaming impossible dreams.
Never mind.
It's not important.
I need your help.
I don't know about acting.
You're not my first pick.
I already asked Felicity, but I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to say the F word.
Javier, you can sayher name.
It's fine.
Okay.
All I need you to do is listen to my monologue and tell me what you think.
Okay, but I'm not gonna be any help.
Of course you are.
Okay.
Here goes.
"Dear God! Oh, it is she.
Sweet lady, fair virgin" There's a customer.
"I dare not gaze full upon thy countenance lest I be blinded by beauty.
" "But I implore thee, speak once thy name.
" - Well? - Yeah, that's good.
- "Yeah, good"? - Good job.
That's your criticism? Were you listening? Yes, but I want to help the customer now.
I hope you're more help to her than you were to me.
Enjoy your mochaccino.
Sorry.
Sharon Wilkins from the Homeowners' Association called three times.
Right.
Thanks.
Congratulations.
You got your own stalker.
Hey, things with you and Felicity are pretty good, right? - Yeah, they're fine.
- I thought so.
No, wait.
What does that mean? You thought so? - I wanna call Julie.
- Julie? - Julie Emrick? - Yeah.
That's the one.
It's just that ever since this thing happened with you and Felicity, I can't stop thinking about her.
- Wow.
I didn't know you guys talked.
- Yeah.
We email.
And I've had her number in my wallet for months.
And I've always had this thing for her.
You know how those things go.
They never go away.
And Julie's I mean, she's interested? I don't know.
I think When she writes she says she wishes she had someone like me in her life, so Who wouldn't want you in their life? You're great.
You're smart.
You're funny.
- You're scaring me.
- You dress well.
Sorry.
Anyway her number's just sitting in my wallet.
Waiting.
It's the break-up box, isn't it? Yeah.
I haven't seen Tracy since we decided to call of the wedding.
I thought he should have his stuff.
It's the saddest part.
It's like a little grave for your love.
I was wondering if I could ask you a favor and if it's a bad time because you're in heartbreak hotel, I understand.
- No, I'm fine.
What do you nedd? - I want to audition for Man - of La Mancha, and I need feedback.
- Okay.
It won't take long, I promise.
It'll take your - mind off your troubles.
- Javier, I said yes.
Really? Wow, I gotta start listening better.
Okay.
I just need some help with this scene.
- What's your song? - Impossible Dream.
- And your dance? - What dance? I don't have a dance.
You want the lead, don't you? To do that you have to be a triple threat: Actor, singer, dancer.
Wow.
Do you really think I can get Don Quixote? It doesn't matter what I think, you have to know it.
So come back here tomorrow and wow me with a complete audition.
Song, scene, dance.
You do that, Don Quixote will be yours.
Wow.
This is fantastic.
You're like Sancho Panza, his faithful sidekick.
I'm nobody's sidekick and don't you forget it.
Okay.
Right.
I'm just gonna go practice my dance moves.
No, Dad.
I'm not kidding.
Yes, I'm pre-med now.
I'm excited too.
Right.
I was thinking about that as well and unless you're uncomfortable paying for it That would be great.
The great thing about time travel is that it's easy to solve a lot of old problems.
Like tuition, for example.
But then again it doesn't solve everything.
- Organic chemistry? - You just made it.
Door locks on the hour.
Take a seat.
Books away.
We're starting with a quiz.
The structure and bonding of molecules.
What are you doing here? I haven't had a chance to tell you.
I'm pre-med now.
- Since when? - I know it's confusing.
Ben, organic chemistry's a requirement.
- But you had to be in this class? - I didn't know you were in here.
Eyes front, people.
This means you.
Books away.
Hey.
I'll change classes.
Good.
I knew I'd done the right thing, breaking up with him, but, still, it's hard.
We were together so long and maybe it's like Maybe it's like in chemistry how certain elements are attracted to each other.
No matter what the conditions.
Wow.
Last time I was here was, what, three years ago.
I swear that's the same bottle of ketchup.
That's what they taught us in music school.
Condiment conservation.
It's preparing for being a starving artist.
Everything just takes a little longer than you think.
What is this? That is That is my demo CD.
- You made a CD? - Yeah.
Hey, you know what's on there? That piece you helped me with.
- Remember? The fugue.
- Yeah.
Turned out really well, all things considered.
I can't believe you and Felicity are still together.
I think it's great.
Yeah.
It's not "still.
" It just happened a couple of weeks ago.
It sort of came out of left field.
But you're happy about it? It's what you want.
Definitely.
What about you? You've gotta be with someone.
No.
Not anymore.
I was engaged, but it didn't work out.
I'm sorry.
His loss.
Seeing you it's just like home.
- We have this history.
- Yeah, we do.
We do.
I think about you a lot.
I think about you too.
Wow.
I should go.
- No.
I'm sorry.
- No.
- I shouldn't have said anything.
- No, it wasn't I just I have this place to be.
I just gotta go.
So l'll call you, okay? - Okay.
- Yeah? Bye.
I spent an hour filling out forms at the registrar's office only to find out that I can't change the class.
I have no choice.
It's going to be so awkward.
No matter where I sit I'm gonna be feeling Ben avoiding me.
- You don't think I should take it? - No.
I wasn't thinking about that.
- What were you thinking about? - About last night.
I think Hanna wants to get back with me.
- What? Did she say that? - No.
Not those exact words.
- What were the exact words? - She said I'd been on her mind a lot.
On her mind a lot? She's unbelievable.
What else did she say? She wondered if I ever thought about giving us another chance.
God! Every time she's here she does the same thing.
It's like a flashback within a flashback.
- What did you say? - Nothing.
I left.
- Why didn't you tell me last night? - Because it's stupid.
So why are you telling me now? Because I realized I didn't want to keep anything from you.
Is it because you secretly want to be with Hanna? No.
No.
I don't.
I don't wanna be with her.
I want to be with you.
And I'm not even gonna do her website.
Because I've just come too far for you to end up with Hanna.
Okay? Okay.
Good.
Hey.
No.
This is not a conversation that starts with "Hey.
" What the hell is going on here? I don't know if you know, but you're supposed to do the floors every six years and I haven't done it ever, so I figured this was a good time to do it and they've got to remove all the furniture.
- You're the worst liar in the world.
- That's not fair.
- You're not doing the floors.
- I could be.
- Are you? - No.
- So? - So Okay.
The truth is that - I'm in a I'm in a financial bind.
- How much? - They had to repossess some furniture.
- How much? - 50,000 dollars.
- 50,000 dollars?! - That's not the response I wanted.
- How can you spend 50,000 dollars? Stop saying "50,000 dollars"! - I know the number.
- When were you gonna tell me? Were you hoping I wouldn't notice there was no furniture? I didn't have a plan.
I was embarrassed.
And I knew that you'd make me feel bad.
It's 50,000 dollars, you should feel bad.
- See? That's what I'm talking about.
- I don't understand.
Exactly.
You don't understand.
- Now you're mad at me? - I don't think you wanna understand me.
You know what I want? I want to sit down.
But there's no chairs here so I'm going to my apartment where there are chairs.
Why don't you call me when you stop being a jerk? Hey.
It's not 50,000 dollars either.
It's 55,412 dollars.
I rounded it down.
With a couple of exceptions, the performance on this quiz was dismal.
Do better or there's gonna be some empty chairs in here very soon.
Good afternoon.
Nice work, Miss Porter.
Keep it up.
Thanks.
I talked to the registrar.
They won't let me change.
It doesn't matter.
I'm dropping pre-med.
What? - What's with the culture? - What's with the furniture? Okay.
Fair question.
I's a money thing.
I'm going through a personal economic downturn.
Is that what all the messages were about? Exactly.
- Can I help? - No.
No, it's under control.
Thanks, though.
- This classical stuff isn't bad.
- Yeah.
It's Hanna's.
Wow, she's good and cute.
I forgot how cute she was.
I know.
So I did it.
I called Julie and it was a great conversation.
Amazing.
And she's coming down next weekend.
- Really? - Yeah.
This is my time, right? That I should be out there, exploring.
I got the rest of my life to be tied down.
- What? You think I made a mistake? - No.
I mean I don't know.
I was thinking about Hanna.
She wants to get back together.
What? You're not considering that, are you? - No.
- Okay.
Good.
No.
I mean, things with Felicity and I are I don't know.
- What? - Well She's acting a little strange.
Have you noticed that? Yeah, but everything's strange right now, don't you think? Yes, that's true.
Two weeks ago, if you'd told me that I could be with either Felicity or Hanna, I'd have said you were out of your mind.
What about me? Suddenly I've got Meghan and Ju - I don't have Julie, but it's possible.
- It's weird, right? Yes, it is.
Perhaps you and I are just more attractive than we thought.
- That's weird.
- Yeah.
Probably not.
I'm going to seize this opportunity.
My experience has been this kind of thing does not last.
Five, six Five, six, seven, eight.
- Why do you look like that? - It's terrible.
- What is? - You, the dance, everything.
What shall I do? The audition's tomorrow.
Forget it.
You're never gonna get that part.
You have dance dyslexia.
- I can't work with you.
- But I thought you said That's before I knew what I was dealing with.
- I can't be that bad.
- You're worse! - Now you're just being mean.
- No.
I'm being honest.
I'm saving both of us a lot of time and problems.
You should be ashamed to call yourself an acting coach.
What's going on? Nothing.
He's in his room.
Ben.
Ben, listen to me.
About Hodges' class.
I know you don't believe me, but you can get an A.
- I can't tell you how sure.
- Well, I'm not.
I'm not kidding.
I know you can do it.
I really know.
If you want someone to study with ever I could help you, if you want.
I don't think that's such a good idea.
Hey.
Hey.
I didn't hear you.
- What are you listening to? - I'm listening to Hanna.
It's her CD.
You bought her CD? Yeah.
No.
Well, she dropped it off.
She left it at the door.
Is that her? You're working on her website? - Yeah.
Yeah.
I was just - You said you weren't going to do that.
I know, but I had a couple of good ideas and I'm not spending much time on it and I wasn't sure why I shouldn't be doing it.
Plus it's good practice.
So And I guess I'm I'm a little confused.
Confused? Are you going back to Hanna? God, this can't be happening! - Calm down.
- I am pretty calm considering.
You and I spent the summer together and it was incredible.
Everything we did, we just clicked.
I know we click, that's why we're together.
But since that night on the roof I don't know who you are anymore.
- What do you mean? - I mean everything's been weird.
The way we got together was weird - The way you've been acting is weird.
- How have I been acting? Like you're in a race.
Like your head's about to explode.
- It's freaky.
- So I'm freaking you out? - Yeah.
You're freaking me out.
- I will stop freaking you out.
The way you said that still freaked me out.
Do you want to slow things down? I can do that.
- Slow down, yes.
- Okay.
- I will do that then.
- Good.
- What? - You're still freaking me out.
No.
I promise I'll stop.
I can't believe I've come this far and all I'm doing is freaking him out.
- What do you expect? - Now he wants to slow things down.
You know what you should do? Go over to Hanna's place and kick her ass.
I'm not going to kick anybody's ass.
Think how good it would feel.
A good old-fashioned ass kicking.
She was in amazing shape.
Isn't that the point of this psychotic adventure? To do things differently? No, the point was to do the things that I wanted to do.
Then just go over to her house and give her a piece of your mind.
Tell her to back off your man.
Yeah.
That'll work.
If I had a CD, there's no way I'd put my picture on the cover.
Seriously go kick her ass.
Good.
Let's try the next key.
Hanna I didn't really come here to take piano lessons.
Yeah.
I kind of figured that.
I just wanted to talk to you about Noel.
What about him? Well this is a little hard to explain.
I've been through a lot, and I mean a lot, to be with him and I just really want to give this, us, me and Noel, a chance.
But you know how guys get when ex-girlfriends reappear.
No.
How do they get? Well, they get confused.
I just don't want that to happen to Noel.
- He's confused? - No.
No.
I don't want him to get confused.
I just don't know how much time I have.
- God, are you sick? - No, no, no.
I'm not.
No.
I just really wanna be with him.
- Okay.
- Okay, really? - If you and Noel are together - We are.
then I don't wanna get between you.
Hanna, thank you so much.
I knew you would understand.
Here you go.
No rush.
No.
No.
I don't want to hear any more about how terrible I am.
- Javier, I'm sorry.
- For what, huh? Being a windmill that chopped my dreams into tiny pieces.
Careful, it's hot.
Look, I know it is no excuse, but I got really bad news.
I got a letter from Tracy.
He went to Zambia on a church mission.
That's so far away.
Yeah.
So I was upset and I took it out on you and I'm really, really sorry.
- So if you want to try it again - No.
You were right.
I'm not gonna make it as an actor.
What? So you're just gonna quit? You said yourself I'm terrible.
I can't sing, I can't dance.
I have an accent, some people say.
I'm not even a single threat.
You can't just give up.
I mean, that was one criticism.
You've gotta be able to take more than that to make it.
It's your dream.
You've gotta follow it.
Don Quixote would.
- You really think so? - Yeah.
- Can you operate complicated machinery? - Why? I have an audition to get to.
I know.
How great am I? You're in debt, you felt bad, I was mean.
I understand.
- Wait.
You did this? - Technically my father did it, but he doesn't know all the details.
All right.
I can't accept it.
Okay.
We'll tell him the truth.
What's the difference? Furniture, Greenpeace.
No.
I can't accept your money.
Not from you, not from your father.
What's the big deal? You'll pay me back.
I know where you live.
You can make it up by taking me out to dinner.
I don't wanna pay you back.
I don't wanna have to pay you back.
What is your problem? My father does something nice and you act like this? This is a rare event.
You should take advantage.
No, I don't want to take advantage.
That's the whole - I can't accept your money.
- Fine.
Fine.
If you give me one good reason why you can't accept it.
Okay.
Fine.
I'm gonna go get changed.
You figure out where you're taking me to dinner.
He could have been more appreciative.
I saved his couch.
- At least he's taking you to dinner.
- Yeah.
It was my idea.
- It's always my idea.
- You have good ideas.
Going over to Hanna's was the best thing I could have done.
- She backed right off.
- You should have kicked her ass.
I'll get it.
I'm leaving anyway.
Who is it? - I didn't know you were coming.
- You went to Hanna's apartment? Yeah.
To take piano lessons.
Felicity, tell me the truth.
Are you dying? - What? - Hanna thinks you have some terminal illness.
- Oh, my God.
I told her I was fine.
- Are you? - Yes! - Because that would make sense.
- No.
I'm not sick.
- She said you told her not to see me.
- She said that? - You didn't tell her that? She said it was okay.
She said she understood.
What did you think you were doing? I just want to give us a chance to be together, to see if this works, and we'd only had a week together and Hanna shows up.
We'd only had a week because the week before that you were in love with Ben and the three years before that.
Do you realize how many times I've waited for you to decide who you wanna be with? Okay.
I made a mistake and I'm sorry.
But I saw what was going on, I didn't want to stand by - and let it happen.
- Felicity, you're supposed to wait! Just like I waited.
You wanna be with Hanna.
- I don't know! - But you might.
I have to go.
Dear Sally.
Okay, you're not gonna believe this, but remember last week when I told you I was stuck in the past? Well, I'm still here, but now something's happened which makes me wish I wasn't.
- Is this a bad time? - No.
What's going on? You know you said before that you'd help me? Yeah.
Is that? - You haven't changed your mind? - No.
- Why don't you come in? - I was thinking we could go to the lab.
Sure.
I'm just gonna go grab my coat.
Okay.
- What the hell is this? - A check for 50,000 dollars.
Where did it come from? Did you sell your organs? No.
Noel gave it to me.
- Noel has 50,000 dollars? - Yeah.
It's part of the marriage settlement with Natalie.
This lawyer showed up and Noel didn't want it - It doesn't matter.
Noel loaned it to me.
- Let me get this straight.
You won't take the money I offered you? No.
I told you, I can't do that.
But you'll take it from Noel? I don't get that.
I'm your girlfriend.
- I called Julie.
- Who's Julie? Julie.
Julie Emrick.
- Okay.
So what are you talking about? - Oh, God.
This Meghan, you and I Right now, you and I are not good.
Right? We argue all the time.
I'm not blaming you.
It's not your fault and it's not my fault.
It's just I don't know.
Julie understands me.
Oh, my God.
You and Julie? I have no idea what's gonna happen.
It's just that now's the time if I'm gonna I'm sorry.
This is not the way I wanted to tell you this.
I didn't want to hurt you.
It's the last thing that I wanted to do.
I'm not the one who's gonna get hurt.
You are.
An ionic bond is between a positively charged atom and a negatively charged atom.
So it's an "opposites attract" kind of thing? Yes, exactly.
And then there are these covalent bonds, which are a little bit more - Platonic? - Yeah.
Platonic.
- Can I ask you something? - Yeah.
When I came by your apartment tonight, you just seemed kinda sad.
- Are you okay? - Yeah.
You and Noel are Fine.
You don't want to talk about it.
No, it's not that.
It's just, uh You don't wanna hear it.
We'd probably end up here all night.
That's okay.
I'm gonna get a drink.
Do you want one? Er, no.
I'm all right.
Thanks.
Okay.
- I like the funny little guy.
- Good.
Good.
He looks like you.
He's cute.
So I'm sorry about Felicity coming over here.
It's okay.
- We got in a huge fight about it.
I hope I didn't make things worse.
No.
No, no.
I told you this whole thing sort of came out of left field.
I just told her that I needed some time to figure things out.
Figure what out? I don't know.
I guess I guess what I want.
I know you didn't want one, but I got you one anyway.
- Thanks.
- Sure.
So where were we? Er we were talking about molecular bonds.
Right.
How opposites attract.
Right.
