Austin and Ally s04e20 Episode Script
Duets & Destiny
Ally! Austin! It is so good to see you, I missed you so much.
Me, too.
I can't believe it's been four months.
How's school? Hard, but amazing.
How's the tour? It's been fun, but also really lonely.
And, it kinda got me thinking.
About us.
I didn't know at the time, but The day I walked in the music store was the greatest day of my life Because it's the day I met you.
There's so much about the future I don't know, but the one thing I'm sure of is, there's no way I can make it without you.
So, Ally Willow Dawson Will you make me the happiest man alive and, marry me? Austin.
I can't Believe you're really asking me to marry you! Yes, yes, I will! Wait.
That never happened.
First of all, Ally's middle name isn't Willow, and more importantly, Austin never asked Ally to marry him.
I know, but what happened in real life is too sad.
So, when I was putting together my rockumentary, the Austin and Ally story, I used a little editing magic to make it look like Austin was proposing.
Here's the original footage.
Whoa, what kind of bug is that? Hey, I got him.
Come on.
Touch him, he's fuzzy.
Austin, I can't Even look at it.
Ew! Ew! Gross! No audience wants to see what really happened.
You mean that Austin and Ally actually broke up and haven't talked to each other in years? Uh, yeah.
I can't end my movie like that.
It's all so sad.
You know, Ally's coming home this weekend, and I tried to talk her into going to Austin's show with us, she said she doesn't even want to see him.
Austin said he doesn't want to see her either.
It's so weird that after all they've been through they can't even be friends.
Tell me about it.
We're friends and we hate each other.
I know, I hate you so much.
I just know that if we can get Austin and Ally in the same room, once they see each other, everything will be fine and we can all go back to being friends.
I think I know just how to do it.
Wait a sec.
Is your plan an elaborate scheme that involves lying, trickery and deceit? Of course.
Then count me in! Whoo! And then, after I finished my tour with the lion queen, I got cast as Maggie in the musical, Maggie and the magic overalls .
Overall, I'd say you're doing really well.
Wow, it feels so weird to be back here.
So many memories.
You mean like meeting Austin? Writing songs with Austin? Falling in love with Austin? I see what you're doing and I don't want to talk about it.
Austin is the past, I am all about the future.
Now that I'm done with college, I'm just excited to focus on my music again.
I'm really glad to hear you say that, because guess who booked you on the Helen show this Friday? Wait, the Helen show? That's amazing! Your fans are dying to hear new music from you.
Wait.
I'm supposed to do a new song? Ah.
I gotta warn you.
School kept me so busy, my songwriting is a little rusty.
Ally, you've never written a bad song in your life.
Let's hear what you got.
Oh, boy.
I just wrote that at the airport because the airline lost your luggage.
Yeah, I get it.
And then Atlanta tonight and tomorrow, and then I'll be back in Miami for my show this weekend.
Can't wait to see ya, buddy.
Me, too.
What up? - You okay, buddy? - Ooh.
Ah, still there? Hey, so you know how Trish booked you on the Helen show this Friday? Yeah.
It's gonna be fun to go back on the Helen show .
It's kinda where it all started for me.
Well, I finally finished my film, the Austin and Ally story, and I was kinda hoping you guys would bring me out to show a clip.
You guys? Ally's not gonna be there, is she? What? No! I said, "you guy.
" I was hoping you guy would bring me out.
You.
Guy.
But, out of curiosity, would it be a big deal if Ally was there? I mean, she's not.
But if she was? Dez, you know how hard the breakup was for me.
It's still really painful.
There's no way I'm ready to see Ally again.
Hey, Dez, look who's here.
Ally! That was close.
Welcome to the Helen show! Austin moon, you're on in 10 minutes Is something I was supposed to tell you nine minutes ago, so, you got one minute.
Okay, buddy, just treat this like any other talk show appearance.
There's no reason to freak out or be nervous.
Why would I freak out? See, that's exactly what I'm talking about! Calm down! Oh, Trish, thank you so much for booking me on the Helen show, you're a really great friend.
I am.
But, remember, no matter what happens out there on the show today, just know that I'm always trying to be the best possible friend.
The best friend possible.
Best.
Okay Ally Dawson, you're on in one minute.
Is something I was supposed to say 55 seconds ago, so you're pretty much on now.
Oh, okay.
We have an amazing show for you tonight.
I could not be more excited to have these special guests.
On stage for the first time together in years, Austin moon and Ally Dawson! Feel the love! Together! It feels right.
All right! Welcome back to my show, Austin and Ally! - Uh-huh.
- Yep.
Yeah! It is so great to have you here! Now let's have some fun! So why did you break up? - Ah, we just - Um, I I don't really Ally, is it true that Austin showed up at your dorm room at Harvard and spelled out, "I'm breaking up with you," in pickles? Ah, no.
That's just weird.
Austin? Is it true that Ally's dad paid you a million dollars to stay away from her? - A million dollars? - Mm-hmm.
No way! Do you know how cheap Ally's dad is? Are you making this stuff up? Actually, yes, I am.
Since you two have never spoken publicly about the breakup, all we can do is make horrible guesses as to what happened.
Look, the real story isn't that interesting.
I was constantly on tour, Ally was busy with school, and we never had time to see each other.
Aww.
It was frustrating and it was painful to not be able to be together, so, we decided that the best thing to do was take a small break.
Mm.
Then a small break turned into a long break.
Then a long break turned into a really long break.
Then a really long break turned into is this really anybody's business? Well, the important thing is is that you're both back on my show again.
And who can forget Austin and Ally's first appearance on the Helen show eight years ago? Roll the clip! L-let's hear it for Ally everybody.
I doubt anyone will ever see a talk show appearance more uncomfortable than that.
Today's pretty close.
This is going great! Are you kidding me? This is a disaster! Austin and Ally are having the worst time ever! Oh, I know.
I just meant this is the best episode of the Helen show that I've ever seen.
Riveting! We gotta do something.
I have an idea.
So, how hard is it for you two to see each other right now? Is it awful? Whoo! Thank you.
Thank you.
No, no, no.
Thank you.
- Dez? - What are you doing? Creating a distraction.
I'm sorry, who are you? My movie? Thanks for asking.
I would love to talk about my movie.
It's called the Austin and Ally story .
Roll the clip! She was a boring, shy songwriter with no real purpose.
Then he appeared an incredibly handsome, not boring rocker with nothing but a corn dog and a dream.
Oh, and also a totally awesome best friend.
Oh, and I forgot, the shy girl also had a friend.
She was lazy and rude.
She wrote, he rocked.
They loved.
I love you, Ally.
I love you, too, Austin.
Together, they made it.
Coming soon from the director of claws dun dun dun .
Wow! Look how in love you two were.
Such a tragedy.
Tell me about it.
I've been reworking the ending of my movie for years trying to make it less depressing.
Oh, powerful stuff.
Stay tuned, after this commercial, Ally's gonna perform a brand-new song.
I'm sorry, I-I can't do this.
Ally! You should really have me on your show more often.
We have great on-screen chemistry.
Whoo! Welcome back to my Austin and Ally reunion special.
Which I guess is now just me And their weird friend.
Thanks, Helen.
I would love to show you an exclusive interview with the director of my movie, the Austin and Ally story.
- Well, that's not what I - Roll the clip! Welcome to Dez on Dez.
Hi, I'm Dez.
With me, I have Dez, renowned director.
I gotta say, you're looking good, Dez.
Thank you, Dez.
As are you.
It's an honor to be here.
Now tell me, at what point did you first realize that you would become one of the world's most prestigious and respected directors? From day one, really.
I even directed the video of my own birth.
I saw that umbilical cord and I yelled, "cut!" Ally, wait.
Why did you do this? I'm sorry.
I just miss you.
And Austin.
And even that red-headed doof.
I just wish things could go back to the way they used to be.
I know.
I get it.
But I told you I wasn't ready to see Austin, it's still too painful for me.
I'm sorry I tricked you, but this is your big comeback, you have to go out there and sing your new song.
It's not actually a new song.
I lied when I said the only songs I had were about shower shoes and lost luggage.
I wrote a bunch of other songs, too, but they're all about me and Austin.
And there's no way I can go out there and sing one on TV now, especially not in front of him.
You can't just leave.
You have to sing something.
I mean, the luggage song wasn't that bad.
Ally, we need to talk.
Ah, yeah.
Probably should.
And I probably should give you some space.
More space than this? Got it.
Well This isn't exactly how I pictured seeing you again.
Me neither.
You look pretty.
Thanks.
You look pretty, too.
Thanks.
I've been using a new all-natural moisturizer.
- I miss you.
- I miss you.
It's been weird not having you around.
We used to share everything.
Well, at least I still have your songbook.
It's almost like having you with me.
You still keep it with you? Always.
Look, I heard what you said to Trish about not wanting to perform.
It's Hard to go out there and perform Feeling the way I do right now.
You know, we always used to be able to lean on each other to get through anything.
What if we sing your song together? As a duet? Really? Uh I think This one might be Good.
It's perfect.
Aww.
Still too close? So then I, grabbed the umbrella, and gave it back to that walrus.
Ha, ha, ha.
Why are you still here? Hey.
Sorry to interrupt.
Oh, great, another uninvited guest.
Do we have any security here at all? Anyone? I just wanted to let everybody know that Ally is ready to perform, and Austin is gonna perform with her.
Oh! That is amazing! But you know, I like to introduce the guests on my show.
- Oh, sorry.
- Yeah.
Ladies and gentlemen, on stage for the first time in years, - Austin and Ally! - And Ally! Ally, I still love you.
I never stopped loving you.
I never want to be apart from you.
I want to be with you, too, but how? No matter how much we love each other, we always seem to be headed in different directions.
Then Why don't we head in the same direction? We can write, record, perform and tour together.
You mean like an official duo? Yes.
What do you say? Now this is what I hoped would happen.
Man.
Now I have to change the ending of my movie.
But it's so beautiful.
Ho, ho! Auslly fans, rejoice! Whoo! Austin and Ally are back together, as a couple, and as an official singing duo.
Whoo! And Ally, thanks for making it through the whole show without destroying my set this time.
Well, ha-ha Your new set does seem a lot sturdier than the old one.
Aah! Austin and Ally, everybody.
Whoo! And people were so excited about us getting back together, that our appearance on the Helen show actually got a billion hits.
After that, we went on tour together, and when we were in Paris your father asked me to marry him.
Guess who made it to Miami! Hey, go give a hug to your aunt Trish and Uncle Dez.
- Aunt Trish! - Uncle Dez! We came straight from the set of claws dun dun dun: Eight .
Okay, come on, kids.
The studio gave us a private jet.
Trish is amazing in the movie.
I really think she's gonna win a best actress award.
The four I've won are plenty.
Ah, who am I kidding? I want five.
- Ah, there's my wife.
- Where? I'm talking about you, Carrie.
You're my wife.
Phew.
For a second I thought you married someone else.
Where's Darrie? He went away to college.
Didn't we tell you? College? But he's six.
Ah, yeah.
Our son is officially the world's smartest kid.
The scientist guy said darrie had a 300 q.
I.
It's I.
Q.
Spelling's not really my thing.
Point is, our kid's the best.
Not so fast, red.
With little touches of gray.
Hey, wifey-poo.
Hey, Chuck-a-licious.
Trish and I have the best kid, and Princess Magnolia Rose has the "little miss preschool America pageant" trophy to prove it.
Guess who won "little miss preschool.
" It's so amazing to be back here.
Where it all began for the four of us.
I am really glad we're all here together.
No matter where our lives take us, we'll always be best friends.
I love you guys.
Wow.
It's all still here.
It's like we never left.
Yeah.
Even the old piano.
Okay, we've got 18 hours to write the greatest song ever.
Remember this one?
Me, too.
I can't believe it's been four months.
How's school? Hard, but amazing.
How's the tour? It's been fun, but also really lonely.
