Épisode Les conversations gênantes S03E15 - The O.C. Saison 3

Marissa et les autres personnages pleurent la mort de Johnny, qui entraîne également à l'arrivée de Sadie, la cousine de Johnny.

Avant l'enterrement à la plage, Summer confronte Seth au sujet de son mensonge à propos de la marijuana trouvée dans son bureau. Elle n'est pas particulièrement dérangée au sujet de l'utilisation de drogue illégale, mais du mensonge impliqué dans sa dissimulation.

En attendant, Sadie rencontre Marissa au wagon-restaurant lui présente un cadeau de Johnny - il avait demandé à sa cousine de faire un collier destiné à sa petite amie supposée, Marissa, pour la Saint-Valentin. Sadie fait une bonne impression à Ryan lors de la veillée, et il peut voir qu'une certaine attraction commence à se former entre Ryan et cette nouvelle arrivante.

Le lendemain soir, Kirsten et Julie accueillent une soirée dansante pour la Saint-Valentin. Marissa choisit de ne pas être accompagnée de Ryan parce qu'elle pleure toujours de la mort de Johnny ; Seth compense ses mensonges précédents avec une note pensive ; Sandy danse avec sa belle épouse pour qui il a acheté de la lingerie sexy ; le Dr. Roberts demande à Julie d'être sa Valentine ; Kaitlin part au milieu de la nuit pour retourner à l'école avec Justin ; et Ryan aide Sadie à ranger les affaires de Johnny. Volchok vient rendre visite à Sadie, et aperçoit son rival Ryan dans la maison.

MAISON DES COHEN

SUMMER: Vous savez ce qu'on dit, pas de nouvelles, bonnes nouvelles.
SETH: Je ne suis pas sûr que ce soit vrai pour un sévère trauma crânien.
MARISSA: On devrait être à l'hôpital.
RYAN: On ne peut rien faire là-bas. Les docteurs nous ont bien dit de rentrer, de dormir.
MARISSA: Ouais, mais je ne peux pas dormir, et je n'ai pas faim.
KIRSTEN: Vous avez faim ?
SANDY: Allons, tout le monde doit manger. Votre ami Johnny devra aussi le faire à son réveil.
MARISSA: Si il se réveille.
RYAN: Marissa...
MARISSA: Tu étais là.
RYAN: Ouais.
SUMMER: Les gars, il va probablement s'en tirer. Trey a été inconscient des mois, et il s'en est tiré. On lui a tiré dessus.
SETH: On a attendu pour un certain OD à TJ.
MARISSA: Je vais voir... Kaitlin dans le pool house.

____________

SANDY: Comment ça va, Ryan?
RYAN: Elle a raison. La manière dont les docteurs parlaient était claire. Ils n'ont pas voulut nous donner d'espoirs.
SUMMER: Les docteurs sont des idiots.
SETH: Tu l'as dit à ton père ?
SUMMER: C'est leur travail d'être négatif. C'est pour gérer les attentes des gens. Donc notre boulot est d'être positif.
RYAN: La mère de Johnny.
SETH:  Tu crois pouvoir...?
RYAN: Je ne sais pas.
SANDY: Tu veux que je le fasse ?
RYAN: Non, ça va aller. Mlle Harper ? Bonjour, c'est Ryan.
KAITLIN: Que s'est-il passé ?

GENERIQUE

MAISON DE JOHNNY

 MARISSA: Salut.
CHILI: Merci d'être passée.
MARISSA: Je suis heureuse que tu aies appelé. Où est Gwen?
CHILI: J'ai enfin réussi qu'elle s'allonge. Elle parle déjà de l'enterrement et elle se perd, tu vois ?
MARISSA: Elle veut faire quoi ?
CHILI: Qui sait ? Elle a dit pas de prière, pas de corps, rien de déprimant. C'est des funérailles, c'est censé être déprimant, non ?
MARISSA: On pourrait faire ça la journée. Peut-être vers l'eau. Personne ne portant de noir.
CHILI: Ou de chaussures. On dirait ce qu'il aurait voulu. Je dois porter ça à Mlle H.
MARISSA: Je vais le faire.
CHILI: Merci.

MAISON DES COHEN

RYAN: Ca semble irréel, mec.
SETH: Ecoute, tu peux pas t'en vouloir, tu as essayé.
RYAN: Ouais, et j'ai foiré.
SETH: Ne t'en flagelle pas. Ryan Atwood contre lui même est un match en cage sanglant.
RYAN: Je vais me doucher, essayer de dormir.
SETH: Je suppose que t'as plus à te soucier de Johnny se mettant entre toi et Marissa parce que... Sudoku, sympa à dire, sympa à faire... Trop tôt, bon. Trop tôt.

PLAGE

KIRSTEN: Ca semble faux. Les enfants traversent cet horrible moment et on organise le bal de la St Valentin.
JULIE: Raison de plus pour qu'ils se concentrent sur de bonnes choses. On  ne peut pas l'annuler, même si on le voulait. Même si l'idée m'est venue.
KIRSTEN: Il ne t'a pas demandé ?
JULIE: Qui ? Dr Neil Roberts ? Pourquoi, non. Tu penses qu'il prévoit quelqu'un d'autre ?
KIRSTEN: Non.
JULIE: Je suis pas une matérielle pour la St Valentin ?
KIRSTEN: Julie.
JULIE: Juste un bon coup, sans chocolats, fleurs, et belles lingeries.
KIRSTEN: Sandy n'apprécie pas la St Valentin. On devrait se concentrer sur cet évènement, et s'inquiéter de nos amours quand ce sera fini.
JULIE: Ou je pourrais inventer une fausse excuse, allez chez lui pour avoir des infos.
KIRSTEN: Julie, la dernière fois que tu étais incognito, tu as renversé le plateau à dessert.
JULIE: Ouais, mais j'ai attiré son attention.

MAISON DE JOHNNY

SADIE: Merci. Salut. Tu es une amie de Johnny ? Je suis sa cousine, Sadie.
JOHNNY: Salut, je suis contente que tu sois là.
SADIE: Ma mère a pensé que ce serait une bonne idée que je vienne et que je reste chez ma tante un moment. Comment va t-elle ?
MARISSA: Pas bien, mais elle s'est enfin endormie.
SADIE: Tu as l'air d'en avoir besoin aussi.
MARISSA: Je... Je vais bien.
SADIE: Ouais ?
MARISSA: Ouais. Je dois partir, j'ai des choses à faire.
SADIE: Tu es Marissa?
MARISSA: Ouais.
SADIE: J'ai aimé d'autres circonstances, mais je suis ravie de te connaître.
MARISSA: Moi aussi.

CAMPING

KAITLIN: Justin, que fais-tu ici ?
JUSTIN: Les vacances d'hivers sont presque finies. J'ai  pensé que tu aimerais rentrer.
KAITLIN: Tu aurais du t'économiser de l'essence.
JUSTIN: C'est un hybride. Il a un bon kilométrage, donc l'essence n'est pas un problème.
KAITLIN: La dernière fois, tu voulais me faire arrêter.
JUSTIN: C'était mon frère, et j'espérais qu'on pourrait parler. Sur notre relation ?
KAITLIN: Notre relation ? C'est pas le bon jour.
JUSTIN: Un autre jour serait mieux ?
KAITLIN: Je veux que tu partes maintenant.
JUSTIN: Kaitlin, ça va ?

NEWPORT GROUP

SANDY: A plus tard, merci.
MATT: Patron.
SANDY: Salut.
MATT: Tu voulais me voir ?
SANDY: Ouais, j'étais au téléphone avec Dr Griffin, il m'a dit que le conseil avait mis son véto sur le projet de Brea, ils veulent mettre un frein à l'extension. Mais je vais les revoir. Tu pourrais appeler Maya?
MATT: Avec quelques précautions ? Dis.
SANDY: Ne ment pas, ne l'encourage pas.
MATT: C'est bon. La raison pour laquelle je l'ai appelée, c'est que je l'aime bien.
SANDY: Le  gars aime les filles. La fille influence son père. Le patron du gars doit avoir le contrat. Ca a tout d'une grande romance. Je suis heureux que tu l’aimes bien.
MATT: Je l'appelle. Je te tiens au courant. Salut, Marissa.
MARISSA: Salut.
SANDY: Marissa. Tu tiens le coup ?
MARISSA: Je vais bien. Je me demandais, ce sont des papiers pour l'hôpital, et, la mère de Johnny ne peut pas s'en occuper maintenant. Pas besoin d'avocats ni rien...
MATT: Je connais le gars parfait pour ce travail. J'ai presque majoré en paperasse.
MARISSA: Ca ne vous dérange pas ?
SANDY: Quand on a des papiers abrutissants, Matt est un as.
MATT: Je croyais que vous ne remarquiez pas.
MARISSA: Je devrais rentrer, me doucher. Je suis dans ces fringues depuis, vous ne voudriez pas savoir.
SANDY: Tu t'en sors bien, petite.
MARISSA: Merci.

CHAMBRE DE SETH

SETH: Salut.
SUMMER: Salut, tu fais quoi ?
SETH: Rien.
SUMMER: Si c'est rien, ça te dérange pas que je regarde ? C'est pas un porno.
SETH: Mes DVD de Yakuza par ordre alphabétique mais aussi par directeur. Faire mon inventaire, c'est un de mes trucs, comme se masturber ou se passer du fils dentaire, Et même quand tu sais que je le fais, j'espère que t'en es pas sûre.
SUMMER: Cohen... J'ai trouvé quelque chose dans ton tiroir.
SETH: Tu n'es pas énervée ?
SUMMER: Si, je suis énervée, je suis furax. Pas pour l'herbe, parce que c'est que de l'herbe ! Et avec Marissa on en chauffait dans la voiture de Luke, tu étais à la maison à nourrir Captain Oats hors de son étable. Tu étais tardif, j'ai compris, mais, Cohen, tu m'as menti un millionard de fois, sur des choses importante.
SETH: Summer, je ne sais pas quoi dire, à part que je ne vais plus te mentir et ne pas mentir, tu dois me croire.
SUMMER: Et bien je te crois pas. Tu devrais penser à autre chose.

CAMPING

MARISSA: Qu'est il arrivé à la cocotte ?
KAITLIN: Je l'ai cassé.
RYAN: Salut.
MARISSA: Salut.
KAITLIN: Je vous laisse un peu d'intimité.
RYAN: C'est bon, tu n'as pas...
MARISSA: J'ai essayé de lui parler.
RYAN: Laisse lui du temps. Comment tu vas ?
MARISSA: Tu sais ? Bonjour, Mlle Harper. Pardon, salut. Ouais, je crois, bien sûr.

CAFE

MARISSA: Salut.
SADIE: Salut. Merci de me rencontrer.
MARISSA: Bien sûr, sans souci. Alors tu es en vacances ?
SADIE: Ouais, je viens de Ashland, dans l'Oregon.
MARISSA: Tu  prends une pause avec la fac ou...?
SADIE: Non, en fait, je suis diplômée. J'ai monté ma société de petits bijoux... Je voyage, je cherche des magasins pour les distribuer.
MARISSA: J'ai besoin de rejoindre mon copain.
SADIE: Ton copain ?
MARISSA : Ouais, Ryan. Il était avec moi, avec Johnny, quand c'est arrivé.
SADIE: Ouais, ma tante m'a parlée d'un autre jeune. J'ai juste cru... c'est idiot, j'ai pensé que Johnny était ton copain.
MARISSA: Pourquoi tu penses ça ?
SADIE: La dernière fois qu'il m'a appelé, il m'a demandé de te faire un truc. Pour la saint Valentin. Je l'ai amené avec moi. C'est un porte-bonheur, le sien, et au milieu, un ange.
MARISSA: Un ange ?
SADIE: Il avait peur que tu penses que ce soit de la pacotille, mais il a dit que c'était ce que tu étais pour lui.

PLAGE

SADIE: Donc Johnny avait un pyjama de Power Rangers qu'il refusait d'enlever. Il se levait le matin et il s’habillait sur son pyjama. Et il y a aussi le jour ou il a porté deux couches.

_________

MARISSA: Ryan, Kaitlin est là. Je devrais...
RYAN: Non, c'est bon, je vais le faire.

_________

RYAN: Salut, qu'est ce que tu fais là, toute seule ?
KAITLIN: Je dois faire quoi ? Je vais là-bas, et je me présente ? "Salut, je suis Kaitlin. La fille qui l'a tué."
RYAN: Tu ne l'as pas fait escalader, ni tomber de ce rocher.
KAITLIN: C'est vrai... c'était toi.
RYAN: Je ne ferais pas ça avec toi. Tout le monde est affligé, viens.
KAITLIN: Non, tu sais quoi, Ryan? Tu peux pas arranger ça. Gardes tes discours pour ma soeur, ok ?

MAISON DES COHEN

SANDY: Bon, on commence. C'est ton bonus de quatrième temps. La prochaine fois, je choisis le sport. Tu as contacté Maya?
MATT: Mais j'aurais préféré que non. Quand je ne l'ai pas rappelée, elle a pris ça pour du mépris. C'est une fille futée, maintenant, elle est aussi énervée.
KIRSTEN: Pas  d'erreur. J'ai besoin de 10 000 Mon Chéri, les laissez pas durcir. Merci.
SANDY: Chéri, les enfants sont là ?
KIRSTEN: Non, ils vont au Bait Shop pour la veillée. Salut, Matt, comment ça va ?
MATT: Des problèmes avec les femmes.
KIRSTEN: Peut-être que je peux jouer à Cupidon.
SANDY: C'est une très bonne idée.
KIRSTEN: Vraiment, Sandy? Qu'as tu dis de la St Valentin ? Que c'est niais, un pur produit commercial ?
SANDY: Nous avons besoin de niaiserie, de choses commerciales, et ce sera une de ces fois.
KIRSTEN: Quel est son nom ? J'ai une invitation à donner.
MATT: C'est Maya Griffin.
KIRSTEN: Dont le père dirige le conseil des médecins ? Je sais pas.
SANDY: Si quelqu'un peut le faire, c'est toi.
KIRSTEN: Elle n'a pas besoin de mon aide pour un rencard, ça marchera pas.
MATT: Kirsten, ne vous inquiétez pas. On peut s'en sortir autrement.
KIRSTEN: J'amène Maya à la fête, si tu profites et accepte cette fête. Sans pleurnicherie, ni sarcasme. Sucreries, bougies, lingerie. De la jolie lingerie, rien de rouge, transparent, ou appétissant.
SANDY: Pas un peu transparent ?

BAITSHOP

SETH: La mort et la St Valentin. Voilà une combinaison imbattable.
RYAN: La première où je suis avec Marissa. Ca devrait être toujours ça.
SETH: Je dois tenir mes promesses. Summer a trouvé ma planque.
RYAN: Tu n'as pas d'ecchymose. Elle t'a eu aux genoux ?
SETH: Je préfèrerais.

__________

SUMMER: Toi et Atwood fêtez la victoire ?
MARISSA: En fait, on en a pas parlé.
SUMMER: Vraiment ? C'est votre première St Valentin sans dispute ou une autre fille. Ca pourrait être spécial.
MARISSA: C'est spécial. Je dis que la St Valentin devrait être annulée cette année.

__________

KEVIN: Salut, Sadie.
SADIE: Tu veux quoi ?
KEVIN: Je veux voir comment tu vas. Je le pense, ok ?
SADIE: C'est quand la dernière fois où tu étais sincère ?
RYAN: Il y a un problème ?
KEVIN: Salut, mec.
RYAN: C'est une fête privée.
SADIE: C'est bon, il partait.
KEVIN: Ouais.
RYAN: Alors, tu le connais ?
SADIE: Avant.
RYAN: Sadie, c'est ça ? J'ai aimé ton discours à la plage.
SADIE: Merci. Parler aux funérailles, c'est une spécialité. Rien à se vanter.
RYAN: Personne proche de moi n'est... jamais mort.
SADIE: Vraiment ? J'ai l'impression que tous mes proches le sont. Pas tout le monde, mais mon père... cancer à 14 ans. Mon chien Rocky, un mois après. Ma meilleure amie l'été dernier.
RYAN: Je suis désolé. Pour ton cousin, aussi.
SADIE: Je vois ça. C'est des funérailles. Les gens disent "désolé" avant bonjour. Mais t'es sincère, alors merci.
MARISSA: Ryan, tu es là.
SADIE: Salut, Marissa.
MARISSA: Salut. Seth et Summer te cherchais vers la voiture. Prêt à partir ?
RYAN: Ouais, bien sûr. On se reverra peut-être avant que tu partes ?
SADIE: Bien sûr.

MAISON DES ROBERTS

JULIE: Je pense l'avoir peut-être laisser ici à l'anniversaire de Kaitlin.
NEIL: Je n'ai vu de couteau à gâteau nulle part, pas que je sache à quoi ça ressemble. Vous allez vraiment cuisiner ? Vous n'avez pas votre fête de la St Valentine demain soir?
JULIE: Neil, je suis surprise que vous vous souveniez de mon bal de la St Valentin. Vous êtes de permanence ce week-end ? Vous êtes un homme si occupé.
NEIL: Non, j'ai pensé rester ici, et rattraper de la lecture.
JULIE: Vous êtes en retard au boulot. De nouvelles techniques tous les jours. Faut suivre.
NEIL: Non, je pensais au Da Vinci Code. Vous l'avez lu ?
JULIE: J'attends le film. Bien, je ne vois pas de couteau. Je devrais partir.
NEIL: C'est toujours un plaisir, Julie. Je vous raccompagne.
JULIE: C'est bon. Je connais le chemin.

CAMPING

JUSTIN: Salut. Joyeuse St Valentin. J'ai pensé que tu aurais besoin d'un câlin. Au moins, si tu le jettes, il cassera pas. Des problèmes à la maison ?
KAITLIN: Etonnamment, non. C'est un garçon. Pas comme ça. Il... il est mort. Et j'étais avec lui. Et j'ai aidé à ce que ça arrive.
JUSTIN: Tu veux dire quoi ?
KAITLIN: On est allé à la plage, on a bu, fait un feu, J'ai cru que ce serait bien. Mais il était bouleversé. Et quand j'ai appelé pour de l'aide, c'était trop tard. Il a glissé, il est tombé sur des rochers.
JUSTIN: Alors, c'est un accident.
KAITLIN: Mais les accidents n'arrivent pas par hasard. Les gens les laissent arriver.
JUSTIN: Je comprends pourquoi tu penses comme ça, mais s'il était là, il serait le premier à en assumer la responsabilité, et il te remercierait pour avoir voulu l'aider.
KAITLIN: Tu es comme un adulte.
JUSTIN: Mes parents sont thérapeutes. Ils sont ennuyeux, mais intelligents.
KAITLIN: Merci. Je te revois à Santa Barbara ?
JUSTIN: Ouais.
KAITLIN: Ok.
JUSTIN: Au revoir.
KAITLIN: Mec, je te vois.
JUSTIN: Mec, ouais.

MAISON DES COHEN

SANDY: Salut. Comment était la cérémonie ?
SETH: On parle d'autre chose ? Pourquoi tu lis le catalogue de Victoria Secret ?
SUMMER: En parlant de sous-vêtements, j'ai du sable dans le mien. Pardon.
SANDY: Non, ta mère me l'a donné avec des articles et la taille entouré.
RYAN: Tu acceptes la St Valentin cette année ?
MARISSA: Je  vous croyais contre.
SANDY: Non, un accord avec ta mère, et je tiendrais ma promesse.
SETH: Mon dieu. Je veux dire, à quoi bon ? Je devrais emprunter ça plus tard. Merci.
SANDY: On verra.

MAISON INVITES

RYAN: Tu veux faire quoi ?
MARISSA: Je le fais.
RYAN: Je veux dire pour demain, la St Valentin.
MARISSA: On peut parler de demain, demain ?
RYAN: Pas si tu veux faire quelque chose.
MARISSA: Je ne veux rien faire.
RYAN: Tu ne veux rien faire de spécial, ou tu ne veux rien faire du tout ?
MARISSA: Ryan, tu n'as jamais aimé la St Valentin. Ok ? Ne fais pas comme si c'était ta fête préférée.
RYAN: Non.
MARISSA: C'est dur pour moi, d'accord ?
RYAN: C'est dur pour moi aussi.
MARISSA: Je ne peux pas l'expliquer.
RYAN: J'étais là, Marissa. Qu'est-ce que je comprends pas?
MARISSA: Je vais partir.

________

RYAN: Entrez.
SETH: Ta copine a annulé la St Valentin ? Petite ville, très bonne téléphonie.
RYAN: Hier, ça semblait un bon jour.
SETH: Aux funérailles ?
RYAN: Pas une bonne journée, mais on était bien. Et elle a paniqué.
SETH: Une mort brutale peut faire des trucs bizarres aux gens. Tu te souviens ma mère à la veillée de Caleb ?
RYAN: C'était le père de Kirsten.
SETH: Johnny était l'ami de Marissa.
RYAN: Un bon ami. Trop bon.
SETH: Il est mort, Ryan. Tu peux donner à Marissa un week-end de récup.
RYAN: Elle m'a dit qu'elle était épuisée, elle veut pas me voir.
SETH: Ignore la, elle était folle de fatigue et de chagrin.
RYAN: Elle semblait plutôt lucide.
SETH: Crois-moi, mec, aucune fille ne veut être seule pour la St Valentin.
RYAN: Et tu le sais parce que...?
SETH: Parce que sous mon apparence virile bat le coeur d'une fille de 14 ans.

CAMPING

MATT: Salut. Sandy m'a donné ton adresse. J'ai pensé que tu les voulais au plus vite.
MARISSA: Merci. Je suis sûre que la mère de Johnny appréciera.
MATT: Ouais. On te voit à la fête avec Ryan ce soir ?
MARISSA: Je pense pas. On s'est disputé. Je me suis énervée, c'était ma faute.
MATT: Je suis sûr que Ryan acceptera tes sincères excuses.
MARISSA: J'allais plus lui donner de l'air un moment.
MATT: Si tu as besoin d'autre chose, appelle-moi.
MARISSA: Merci.
MATT: Bonne St Valentin.
MARISSA: Toi aussi.
REPONDEUR: Salut, c'est Ryan. Laissez un message.

RESTAURANT

KIRSTEN: Comme je l'ai mentionné au téléphone, mon amie Julie et moi proposons des rendez-vous. Merci. Nous organisons une soirée ce soir.
MAYA: Comme je l'ai dit, je n'ai pas besoin qu'on me trouve des rendez-vous.
KIRSTEN: Je sais. Nous avons besoin de vous. Ca représente beaucoup d'avoir quelqu'un comme vous jeune, active dans les affaires de Newport et dans la vie... fasse partie de l'évènement. Bien sûr, si vous avez déjà des projets...
MAYA: Vous voulez parler de Matt Ramsey? Je connais votre mari, Kirsten. Je doute sérieusement que cette invitation de dernière minute soit une coïncidence.
KIRSTEN: Maya, je suis désolée.
MAYA: A quel point Matt veut sortir avec moi ?
KIRSTEN: Vous n'êtes pas énervée ?
MAYA: Je l'étais, mais j'ai réalisé pourquoi vous appeliez. Mais j'aime Matt depuis le lycée. Et même si je ne veux pas lui avouer, j'étais déçue qu'il ne m'invite pas après notre repas.
KIRSTEN: Bien, il regrette sa décision.
MAYA: Bien, j'irai.

MAISON DES COHEN

SANDY: J'ai vu que tu avais pris quelque chose pour ta femme, moi pour la mienne.
SETH: Ta femme, c'est ma mère, donc je veux pas en parler.
SANDY: Les sous-vêtements féminins se sont compliqués. String, bikinis, boxer... Qui pensait que les culottes seraient une telle poudrière.
SETH: Ne dis pas culotte.
SANDY: Alors ? Toi et Summer, ça va ?
SETH: On ira bien.
SANDY: Tu as fait quoi cette fois ?
SETH: Je n'ai pas joué franc jeu, et mes omissions ont été découvertes.
SANDY: Elle a su que tu mentais.
SETH: Une coquille, mais je vois pas pourquoi elle en fait un plat. Ce n'est pas une première.
SANDY: Peut-être qu'elle pense que tu es un homme plus un enfant. Les enfants mentent tout le temps, l'homme ne vaut que par sa parole.
SETH: Summer mérite un homme bon.
SANDY: Summer a un homme, un bon.
SETH: Vraiment ?
SANDY: Ouais.
SETH: Pourquoi tu ne m'as rien dit ? Depuis quand tu le sais ?
SANDY: Montre lui. Je dois aller chercher 2-3 choses pour ta mère. Je lui ai promis sa meilleure St Valentin.

MAISON DE JOHNNY

RYAN: Salut. Je peux t'aider.
SADIE: C'est bon, merci. C'est toi ? Que fais tu là ? Tu veux quoi ?
RYAN: Je devais passer. Présenter mes condoléances. Je n'ai rien pu dire à Mlle Harper hier.
SADIE: Je sais qu'elle veut te remercier pour avoir essayer de l'aider. Elle est à l'intérieur, si tu veux.
RYAN: Non, laisse moi t'aider.
SADIE: Je l'ai, c'est bon. Pas bon. Merci.
RYAN: De rien.
SADIE: Je pense que c'est un réflexe. Tu déplaces de la nourriture ou des affaires, on te propose de l'aide c'est sympa de répartir le poids quand tu portes un futon sur trois étages. Mais le pire c'est d'être mal à l'aise sur la discussion ? Et ils te font une fleur, tu dois être sympa.
RYAN: Etre sympa, c'est difficile pour toi ?
SADIE: Ouais, quand je transporte un futon sur trois étages.
RYAN: C'est pour quoi ?
SADIE: Je déménage la chambre de Johnny... pour que ma tante n'est pas à le faire.
RYAN: Fini ?
SADIE: C'est fini. Je vais devoir revoir ma théorie sur le fait de ne pas accepter l'aide d'étrangers. A l'étage.
RYAN: Ce n'est pas gênant ?
SADIE: Pas du tout.

CHAMBRE DE KIRSTEN ET SANDY

SANDY: Pour toi. Dommage que tu sois déjà en robe. J'espérais que tu portes ça.
KIRSTEN: C'est le noir avec du beige ou le beige avec du noir ?
SANDY: Découvre le.
KIRSTEN: C'est un fantasme dont je n'avais pas conscience. 
SANDY: Je n'ai pas acheté ça.

CHAMMBE DE SUMMER

SETH: Je n'ai pas acheté ça, je peux t'expliquer.
SUMMER: Tu résous le problème avec de la lingerie ?
SETH: Non, même si c'est très sexy, et que c'est écrit sur l'étiquette. J'ai fait une erreur, je vais la corriger.
SUMMER: Cohen, notre problème ne peut être réglé avec des sous vêtement pas même des sous-vêtements adaptés avec le bon bonnet.
SETH: Comment te prouver que je ne vais pas faire, ce que j'ai dit que je ne ferais pas.
SUMMER: Tu avais la pression, tu venais avec l'idée révolutionnaire et bouleversais mon monde ! Je pense que la St Valentin est fini.
SETH: Bien. Je t'ai fait une carte.

CAMPING

TELEVISION: Fait avec, Ramon. Death Cab avec Cutie joue au Smog Shop, et Jake m'a invitée.
KAITLIN: Jouer Death Cab dans Valley ? Ne plus les écouter.
MARISSA: Je sais. Tu as l'air bien. Maman te force à sortir ?
JULIE: J'ai aiguisé mes bambous. Mais aucune force n'était nécessaire.
KAITLIN: Je suis heureuse de sortir de cette caravane.
JULIE: Marissa, chérie, ce n'est pas trop tard pour changer d'avis. L'air frais, palourde à volonté.
MARISSA: C'est tentant, mais j'ai besoin d'être seule.
JULIE: Bon.
MARISSA: Salut. Je t'attendais pas. Um... salut.
RYAN: Salut. J'espérais te convaincre de venir avec moi à la fête.
JULIE: On vous verra peut être.
RYAN:Ouais.
JULIE: Bonne soirée.
RYAN: Bonne soirée. J'ai quelque chose pour toi.
MARISSA: Il est magnifique.
RYAN: Ouais, bien, mets le, et habille toi. Ou non, d'accord, on reste là.
MARISSA: Je sais que tu veux bien faire. Mais, j'ai besoin de temps.
RYAN: D'accord, je comprends. Mais il y a plus, je veux dire on est sorti quand pour la dernière fois ?
MARISSA: Quoi, tu veux dire sans Johnny ? Tu es heureux qu'il soit parti, hein ?
RYAN: Je répondrais pas à ça.

FETE

SANDY: Alors Summer t'as rendu le sac ?
SETH: La conversation est partie dans un autre sens après ça. Pas de Marissa ?
RYAN: Ouais, pas de Summer non plus ?
SETH: Non, elle est là-bas, avec son rencard.
SANDY: La St Valentin. Trop de pression. C'est Matt. Je me demande si son rencard est venu.
SETH: Bien, un autre mec. Je dois faire un truc.

__________

KAITLIN: Tu vas faire comme si c'était une coïncidence ?
JUSTIN: Plus... maintenant. Je peux t'offrir un verre ?
KAITLIN: Je sais pas, tu peux ? T'as toujours ces faux papiers ?

__________

SETH: Bonne St Valentin, monsieur. Je me demandais si je pouvais vous emprunter votre fille un moment ?
SUMMER: Cohen. Je suis là, tu veux quoi ?
SETH: Je t'ai écrit quelque chose.
SUMMER: Une serviette en papier ?
SETH: C'est une confession. Lis la.
SUMMER: "A qui cela concernerait. Mon nom est Seth Cohen et j'ai un peur de voler."
SETH: C'est un mensonge, le stylo a bougé.
SUMMER: "J'ai menti sur bien des sujets ces dernières années. Les plus récents mensonges mais non exhaustifs sont :"
SETH: Il y a une liste complète derrière. Tous mes péchés, détaillés.
SUMMER: Cohen, je sais tout ça.
SETH: Si je remerde encore, donne ça à mes parents.
SUMMER: Plutôt intelligent. Tu as changé mon monde. T'aurais pu marquer un point avant la fin du jeu.
SETH: C'est une métaphore sportive, je suis pas.
SUMMER: Je porte le string.
SETH: Ouais, c'est à ma mère.
SUMMER: Beurk !

PLAGE

MARISSA: Tu fais quoi ?
CHILI: Je me saoul. Toi et moi, Marissa. On est les seuls à comprendre ce qu'on traverse ?
MARISSA: Tu as sûrement raison là-dessus.
CHILI: Cette connexion émotionnelle sera un support pour notre relation physique.
MARISSA: Je ne sortirais pas avec toi, Chili.
CHILI: Ce n'est plus Chili. Je vais revenir à Dennis. Johnny n'a jamais aimé ce surnom.

FETE

SERVEUR: Des huîtres, madame ?
JULIE: Non, je ne fais pas dans les huîtres. Si je veux déglutir quelque chose de dégoûtant autant que ce soit pour moi.
KAITLIN: Salut, maman.
JULIE: Salut, bébé, comment ça va ?
KAITLIN: Je pensais repartir.
JULIE: Je te reverrais à la maison.
KAITLIN: Non, je veux dire, quitter Newport. Revenir à l'école, ce soir. Justin, il m'a proposé le voyage.
JUSTIN: Bonjour.
JULIE: Julie Cooper Nichol. La mère de Kaitlin.
JUSTIN: Vraiment enchanté de vous connaître. Vous avez une fille adorable. Je ne dépasserais pas les limites, vérifierai qu'elle a bouclé sa ceinture, m'arrêterai au café régulièrement...
JULIE: Merci, Justin, j'apprécie. Je te reverrais au week-end des parents, et promets que tu reviendras.
KAITLIN: Promis. Tu me verras plus souvent.
JULIE: Kaitlin, je suis désolée que ce voyage ne t'ai pas apporté ce que tu voulais.

NEIL: Vous êtes radieuse, ce soir.
JULIE: Merci.
NEIL: J'espérais qu'on pourrait parler.
JULIE: Neil, vous ne devez pas vous expliquer.
NEIL: Je pense que si.
JULIE: Tous ces aller-retour, être ensemble, s'écarter de... Il y a une raison. Nous ne sommes pas du même monde.
NEIL: Nous avons des vies très complexe, cela compliquera les choses.
JULIE: Qui cherche à se compliquer la vie... Vous avez dit "compliquera" ?
NEIL: Je suis navré d'avoir tardé à vous le demander. Mais j'ai perdu mon calme et perdu mon instinct. Mais Julie, voudriez-vous être ma Valentine?

KIRSTEN: Seul ce soir. Je pense que c'était à prévoir vu les circonstances.
RYAN: Marissa et moi, nous nous sommes beaucoup disputés, beaucoup sur Johnny qui n'était qu'un ami ou...
KIRSTEN: Ou si c'était plus.
RYAN: Elle dit que non, je ne pense pas qu'elle mente, mais elle peut se mentir à elle-même. Maintenant, il est parti, comment on passe ça, si ?
KIRSTEN: La nuit n'est pas finie. Tu peux faire un crochet en rentrant.
RYAN: Ouais, en fait. Merci.

SANDY: Comment va Ryan?
KIRSTEN: Très préoccupé comme d'habitude.
SANDY: Matt et Maya semblent s'entendre.
KIRSTEN: Tu crois qu'ils parlent affaire ?
SANDY: Ouais ! Je crois qu'il dit que nos designers imaginent plus d'espaces pour les soins, et les services.
KIRSTEN: Je pense qu'elle est plus préoccupée par la rampe d'accès pour le hall.
SANDY: C'est une sainte.

CAMPING

MARISSA: Tu pars ?
KAITLIN: Ne crie pas.
MARISSA: Je sais que ce n'était pas tes meilleures vacances, mais je suis vraiment désolée pour tout.
KAITLIN: Ne le soit pas. Comprends tout ça.
MARISSA: Comprendre quoi ?
KAITLIN: Ce que tu ressentais pour Johnny.
MARISSA: Quelle importance ?
KAITLIN: Tu continues de te dire ce que tu veux, mais qu'importe.
MARISSA: Je suis ravie que tu sois venue.

SADIE: Dans ce cas, s'il te plait.

KAITLIN: Tais toi. Même si ça sonne bizarre, cet endroit va me manquer.

MAISON DE JOHNNY

SADIE: Tu penses à quoi ?
RYAN: J'aurais pu dire ou faire quelque chose.... qui l'aurait sauvé.
SADIE: Des choses sont dures à accepter. Que la vie est incontrôlable. Mais tu étais là pour lui à la fin de la journée. C'est le maximum que vous puissiez faire, tu sais ? Etre là. Je serais dans la cuisine si tu as besoin de moi.

SADIE: Va t'en.
KEVIN: Je veux te parler.
SADIE: Il n'y a rien à dire.
KEVIN: Tu ne serais pas venue si tu voulais pas me voir.
SADIE: Ca n'a rien à voir avec toi. Tu devrais partir avant que je crie aux flics.
KEVIN: On sait que tu ne feras pas ça. Putain, que fait-il ici ?
RYAN: Tout va bien ?
SADIE: Maintenant. Tu veux du thé ?

Opening scene - Cohen family room - Seth, Summer and Ryan are sitting together on the couch, Marissa is nearby in a chair. they all seem very worried and pre occupied
Summer: ...well you know what they say no news is good news

Seth: I'm not sure it’s true about severe head injuries

Marissa: we should'a stayed at the hospital

Ryan: nothin we could do there (Marissa closes her eyes) doctors told us to go home (raises eyebrows) sleep eat

Marissa: yeah except (rests head on hand) I cant sleep an I’m definitely not hungry

(Kirsten and Sandy walk in, in their robes, carrying food)

Kirsten: hungry (puts bowl down on the coffee table)

Sandy: come on everyone needs ta eat, your friend Johnny’s gonna need you when he wakes up

Marissa: (looks at Sandy) if he wakes up

Ryan: Marissa (looks away)

Marissa: you were there

Ryan: (looks at Marissa) yeah I was

(Seth and Summer look over at Ryan/Marissa. worried. Marissa looks at Ryan and then down)

Summer: you guys he’s probably gonna be fine (Seth looks at her) Trey was unconscious for like months an he was fine, he was shot

(Marissa doesn’t look convinced or comforted)

Seth: yeah we waited around like this once before after a certain OD in TJ

(Ryan looks over at Marissa)

Marissa: I’m gonna um go check on Kaitlin (stands) in the pool house

(Marissa goes outside. Sandy looks at Ryan worriedly)

Sandy: how're you doin Ryan

Ryan: she’s right, I mean the way the doctors were talking you could tell, they didn’t wanna get our hopes up

Summer: yeah well doctors are idiots

Seth: you tell that to your dad

Summer: it’s their job to be negative, its called managing expectations, that’s why it’s our job (shrugs) ta be positive

(we hear a cell phone ring and the camera pans down to show it sitting on the table. Ryan leans forward and picks it up to look at who is calling)

Ryan: Johnny’s mom (looks at Seth/Summer)

Seth: d'you think you ought'a (motions with hand)

Ryan: I don’t know, I don’t know

Sandy: d'you want me to

Ryan: no no it’s alright (stands)

(Ryan sighs and then answers the phone as he walks towards the door)

Ryan: Mrs. Harper, hey it’s Ryan

(Ryan suddenly starts walking slower and we can tell something isn’t right. Ryan looks up towards the pool house just as Marissa comes out. she stops suddenly and looks at Ryan as he hangs up. Marissa looks at him with a very helpless and sad look, as if she knows without him having to say anything. Ryan rushes over to Marissa as tears start to well. he pulls her to him and she buries her head in his shoulder, aww. we then see that Seth, Summer, Kirsten and Sandy are standing near the door watching. Summer sadly rests her head on Seth’s shoulder/chest and Kirsten touches Sandy’s shoulder. we hear the sound of a door opening and then see a close up of Ryan rubbing Marissa’s back. we then see Kaitlin walk out of the pool house in a Berkeley sweatshirt, she looks at Ryan and Marissa)

Kaitlin: what happened

(Ryan looks at Kaitlin. Kaitlin frowns)

Theme song - California by Phantom Planet

Johnny’s house - the first thing we see is a guy surfing which then fades to a shot of Marissa outside of Johnny’s house. she stops and looks towards the house, then walks to the front door and knocks. inside we see Dennis walking towards the door and then he opens it

Marissa: hey

Dennis: thanks for comin by

Marissa: I’m glad you called

(Dennis motions for Marissa to go in. Marissa goes in and shuts the door behind her. Dennis goes to the kitchen where there is a teapot on the stove. Marissa follows him)

Marissa: where’s Gwen

Dennis: I finally got her to lie down an she-she started talkin about the funeral an just lost it you know

Marissa: well what'does she wanna do

Dennis: who knows, she said no priest (sighs) no body nothing depressing, I mean it’s a funeral you know isn’t it suppose'ta be depressing

Kirsten: it just...feels wrong, the kids are going through this awful thing an we're planning a Valentines Day dance

Julie: all the more reason for them ta focus on something good (looks at Kirsten) I mean its-its not like we can cancel this dance now if we wanted to, although (stops walking) the thought had crossed my mind

Kirsten: (looks at Julie) he hasn’t asked you

Julie: who, Dr. Neil Roberts, why no he hasn’t (almost disappointed) d'you think he has plans with someone else

Kirsten: no

Julie: that I’m not Valentine material

Kirsten: Julie

Julie: that I’m just a fun hang not worthy of chocolates, flowers an nice underwear

Kirsten: well Sandy’s no fan of Valentines Day either, so I guess we should just concentrate on hosting a great event (Julie nods) an we'll worry about our love lives when it’s over

Julie: or I could invent a fake reason to go to his house an fish for information

Kirsten: Julie, last time you went on a stealth mission you toppled a desert tray (walks away)

Julie: (calls) yeah but it got his attention

CUT TO: Johnny’s house - we see a glimpse of a cab, girl’s feet and a brown bag. the camera pans up to show a young woman and the cab driver

CUT TO: The trailer - we see Kaitlin lying on the couch looking very down, we then hear a knock at the door. Kaitlin gets up slowly and opens it. Justin is standing there

Kaitlin: Justin, what're you doing here

Justin: winter break is almost over (smiles) I thought you might want a ride back to school

Kaitlin: should've saved your gas money

Justin: it’s a hybrid (looks at the car) gets pretty good mileage so uh (looks back at Kaitlin) gas isn’t an issue

Kaitlin: last time you came to town you wanted me arrested

Justin: that was my brother and I was thinking uh I was hoping that we could talk (Kaitlin looks at him) about our relationship

Kaitlin: our relationship (Justin slightly nods) (goes to shut door) today’s not a good day

Justin: is there another day that will be better

Kaitlin: I want you to leave (raises eyebrows) right now (closes door)

Justin: (worried, frowns) Kaitlin are you ok

Matt: you know what (Marissa looks over) I actually know just the guy for the job, I’m practically majored in paperwork

Marissa: (looks at Matt) are you sure you don’t mind (Matt nods)

Sandy: well when it comes to mind numbing bureaucratic busy work Matt is an ace

Matt: an here I thought you never noticed

Marissa: why would you think that

Sadie: because last week he called me an he asked me if I would make something for you for Valentines Day (Marissa looks at her) here I brought it with me

(Sadie pulls out a necklace with an angel pendant, and a few symbolic stones)

Sadie: that there is your birthstone an that’s his, an in the middle there’s an angel

Marissa walks away and then we see Dennis walk over to where Summer, Seth, Ryan and Marissa are standing together. Summer touches Dennis' chest comfortingly. Dennis looks over at Marissa, Marissa looks at him. we then see Gwen and Sadie walking towards the altar together, they stop briefly and Gwen looks over at Marissa, Marissa looks at her and then down. Gwen and Sadie keep walking. we see a close up of Ryan then of Marissa. the shot changes and we see Ryan and Marissa's hands just as Ryan takes hers in his, aww. we then see Gwen placing flowers down with the rest of them. someone puts their hand on her back comfortingly.

Sadie: Johnny an I were pretty close growing up, a couple years ago...

Gwen covers her mouth with her hand, overwhelmed. we see another shot of Dennis, Summer, Seth, Ryan and Marissa watching sadly. Sadie is standing at the front near the flowers talking about Johnny)

Sadie: Johnny had this pair of power ranger pajamas that he absolutely refused to take off I mean (Marissa laughs) he would literally wake up an in the morning an put his clothes on top of his pajamas an go about his day wearing his two layers of clothing...

(we see Gwen looking completely lost while Sadie talkes, and then a shot of Volchok smoking near his van, watching the funeral from afar. this changes to Dennis and another guy carrying Johnny’s signed surfboard towards the water. we then see everyone leaving the beach. Volchok is still by his van. Marissa and Ryan are at the range rover. Volchok looks over at Ryan)

Sandy: (looks down) well sometimes we all need a little vacuous commercially driven diversion (looks at Kirsten) an this would be one'a those times

Kirsten: (smiles) mm (to Matt) what her name, ill have a ticket to the party delivered

Justin: I figured you could use something to hug

(Kaitlin pulls out a cute little teddy bear with a red ribbon around its neck. she glances at Justin)

Justin: or at least if you throw him he wont break

(Kaitlin half smiles then sits down, holding the teddy in front of her on the table)

Justin: trouble at home

Justin: then it was an accident

Kaitlin: yeah but accidents don’t just happen, people let them happen

(Justin looks at Kaitlin, Kaitlin looks at him and then away)

Justin: I understand why it probably feels that way, but I’m sure if he were here he'd be the first to take responsibility and he'd...thank you for trying to help him

(Kaitlin looks as though she’s thinking)

Kaitlin: you’re like an adult (smiles)

Justin: my parents are therapists (smiles) there annoying but pretty smart

Kaitlin: well, thankyou (stands) (Justin stands) so I will see you back in Santa Barbara (puts teddy back in the bag)

Seth: well Johnny was Marissa’s friend, her good friend

Ryan: too good

Seth: well, the guys dead Ryan I think you can cut Marissa at least a weekends worth of slack

Ryan: (raises eyebrows, sniffs) she told me flat out she didn’t wanna see me today (moves forward)

Seth: ignore her, she was out of her mind with exhaustion an grief

Ryan: (raises eyebrows) seemed pretty lucid to me

Seth: trust me man (stands) no girl wants to be alone on Valentines Day

(Ryan follows Seth towards the open door)

Ryan: an you know this because

Seth: because inside of my manly exterior beats the heart of a fourteen year old girl

CUT TO: The trailer - we hear a knock at the door and then we see Marissa open it. Matt is standing there

Matt: hi (points) Sandy gave me your address (holds out papers) I thought you'd want these as soon as possible

Marissa: thanks, I’m sure Johnny’s mom will appreciate it

Matt: yeah (nods) so are we gonna see you an Ryan tonight at the party

Marissa: oh I don’t think so, we got in a fight (Matt looks at her) (closes eyes) I got in a fight it was my fault (raises eyebrows)

Matt: oh well I’m sure that Ryan will accept your heartfelt apology (smiles)

Marissa: I was more gonna give him a cooling off period

Matt: well, hey if you need anything else paperwork related or...just to talk let me know

Marissa: thanks

Matt: happy Valentines Day

Marissa: you too

(Matt leaves and Marissa shuts the door. she looks at the paperwork and then puts it down next to her cell phone. she opens the phone and dials a number, we hear the ringing sound in her ear and then a voice message

Msg:
Ryan: hey its Ryan leave a message

Marissa hangs up without saying anything)

CUT TO: NB Yacht club - Kirsten and Mia Griffin are there together

Kirsten: well as I mentioned on the phone my friend Julie an I (sits) (Mia sits) have a dating service, and uh (to waiter) thankyou, we're having a party tonight (smiles)

Mia: and as I mentioned on the phone I don’t need a service to get a date

Kirsten: oh I know, it’s us who needs you, it would mean alot to have someone like you who’s young an active in Newport’s business an social life to be apart of the event, of course (shakes head) if you have plans with someone special

Mia: you mean someone like (frowns) Matt Ramsey (Kirsten looks at her) I know who your husband is Kirsten (smiles) an I seriously doubt this last minute invitation is a total coincidence

Kirsten: Mia I’m sorry

Mia: so just how badly does Matt wanna go out with me

Kirsten: (suprised) you’re not upset

Mia: I was, when I first realised why you were calling, but I’ve liked Matt since college and as much as I wont admit it to him (bites lip) I was disappointed he didn’t ask me out after our dinner

Kirsten: well he regrets his decision (smiles)

Mia: fine, ill go

CUT TO: Cohen kitchen - Seth is sitting at the kitchen tables by himself drawing a red heart. Sandy comes in carrying a pink Victorias secret bag

Sandy: I see you've picked up a little somethin (points) for your lady an I for mine

(Sandy puts his bag down on the left side of Seth’s identical bag which is already sitting on the table)

Seth: uhhh your lady’s my mother an I really don’t wanna talk about it

Sandy: (looking in the bags) women’s underwear has gotten very complicated thongs, bikinis, briefs (Seth looks at him, almost grossed out) who knew women’s panties were such a minefield

Seth: (frowns, still drawing) don’t say panties

Sandy: (sits across from Seth) so, you an Summer good

Seth: we will be

Sandy: what'd you do this time

Seth: a certain circumstance was not (frowns, thinks) fully disclosed and my omission was discovered

Sandy: you got caught in a lie

Seth: in a nut shell yeah but I don’t see why she’s makin such a big deal about it, it’s not like it’s the first time

Sandy: well maybe she thinks of you as a man (Seth looks at him) not a kid, kids lie all the time but a mans only as good as his word

Seth: well Summer deserves a good man

Sandy: Summer has a good man

Seth: she does

Sandy: yeah

Seth: why didn’t you tell me, how long have you known

Sandy: just show her (Seth looks at him) well I gotta pick up a few more things for your mother, I promised her the best (stands) Valentines Day ever

(Sandy grabs the Victorias secret bag on the right and then leaves. Seth gives him a wave and looks as though he is thinking)

CUT TO: Johnny’s house - we see Sadie taking some boxes out of a car and the range rover is behind her, Ryan gets out and goes over

Ryan: hey, let me give you a hand

Sadie: (puts boxes down on the grass) no I got it thanks (Ryan smiles) (laughs) its you, what're you doin here, what'do you want

Ryan: uh thought id stop by, pay my respects, I didn’t really get a chance to say anything to Mrs. Harper yesterday

Sadie: I know she wanted ta thankyou, for tryin'a help him (Ryan nods) (points) she’s inside if you wanna go in

Ryan: no, uh let me help you

Sadie: (waves Ryan off) I got it, its cool

(Sadie drops some boxes and they fall out of the car, Ryan picks them up)

Sadie: not cool, thankyou (smiles)

Ryan: you’re welcome

Sadie: (picks up box) I guess that’s kind of an automatic reaction, your carrying groceries an moving some things an someone offers to help, an sure its nice to share the heavy lifting when your carrying a futon up three flights of stairs (puts down box and heads back to the car) is it really worth enduring the awkward conversation, and there doing you a favour so you have'ta be all nice

Ryan: ah so being nice that’s an effort for you

Sadie: (lifts flattened boxes) kinda yeah, when I’m carrying a futon up three flights'a stairs (gives Ryan them)

Ryan: what're these for

Sadie: packing up Johnny’s room, so my aunt won’t have to (shuts the boot)

(Ryan watches Sadie, Sadie looks at Ryan)

Ryan: done

Sadie: all done

(Sadie looks at Ryan, Ryan looks at Sadie

Sadie: you know I might have'ta rethink my whole position on not accepting help from strangers (Ryan looks down almost embarrassedly) ok (motions to stairs)

Ryan: yeah

Sadie: stairs, this isn’t awkward, this isn’t awkward at all

(Ryan follows Sadie towards the house)

CUT TO: Cohen bedroom - Kirsten is in there by herself and Sandy comes in with the Victorias secret bag and a beautiful bunch of flowers. Kirsten is suprised

Kirsten: ooooooh

Sandy: for you (kisses Kirsten)

Kirsten: mm

Sandy: too bad your already dressed, I was hopin you'd wear this (holds up bag)

Kirsten: (gasps) is it the black one with the beige trim or the beige one with the black trim

Sandy: (points) find out

(Kirsten lifts a coat hanger out of the bag and on it hangs a bright pink bra with the wors pink, kisses, Victorias secret, and love hearts over it, and the panties are white with pink hearts all over them. Kirsten turns it towards Sandy and Sandy looks shocked)

Kirsten: mm, this is a fantasy I’m not aware of

Sandy: (looks at Kirsten) I didn’t buy that!

CUT TO: Summers bedroom - the very first thing we see is Summer slapping Seth, hard.

Seth: aaah, I

(we now see the reason for the slap. Summer is holding up a black lacey teddy, obviously Sandy’s gift to Kirsten)

Seth: I didn’t buy that I can explain (touches teddy)

Summer: you think the situation can be fixed with lingerie (raises eyebrows)

Seth: nooo, not even if it’s...very sexy an it says so right here on the tag the point is I made a mistake I will fix it

Summer: Cohen, our problem cannot be fixed with underwear, not even age appropriate underwear with the right cup size (holds up bra section of the teddy)

Seth: how can I prove to you that I’m not going to do something I say I’m not gonna do

Summer: well the pressure was on, an you needed to come with a revolutionary idea an rock my world (Seth looks at her frustrated) I think Valentines Day is off

Seth: fine (starts to leave then stops and points, softly) I got you a card

(Summer looks at the Victorias secret bag and pulls out the card. on the front it says "I Cannot Tell A Lie..., underneath there is a red heart, the one Seth was drawing earlier, and over the heart is a Pinocchio looking character which resembles Seth, its very cute. inside it says Valentine, I Love You!, Seth. Summer looks at the card almost touched)

CUT TO: The trailer - Marissa is sitting on the couch watching TV, she looks kind of bored and still down, we can hear the familiar sound of The Valley. Kaitlin comes in from the back of the trailer

Kaitlin: ugh (screws up face) there playing Death Cab on The Valley, never listening to them again

Marissa: I know, you look nice (Kaitlin looks over) mom forcing you to go out

(Julie comes in from the same back)

Julie: well I-I sharpened my bamboo sticks, turns out no force was necessary

Kaitlin: (laughs) I’m just glad to get out of this trailer

(Marissa rolls her eyes)

Julie: you know Marissa, honey its not to late to change your mind, fresh air all the baked clams you can eat

Marissa: yeah that sounds...tempting but, I think I just need to be alone

(Kaitlin looks down, sort of like she can relate)

Julie: (nods) ok

(we hear a knock and Ryan comes in)

Marissa: (suprised) hey (Ryan goes inside) (sits up) I wasn’t expecting you (stands) um, hi (kisses Ryan on the cheek)

Ryan: hi, I was hoping I could convince you to join me at the party

Julie: well, maybe we'll see both of you

Ryan: yeah

Julie: good night

Ryan: alright, good night

(Julie and Kaitlin leave. Ryan looks at Marissa)

Ryan: I got you something

(Marissa looks at Ryan, then at the small white box he is holding out to her, she takes it and opens the lid. inside is a beautiful silver necklace with a few dangly beads hanging off of it)

Marissa: (looks at Ryan, touched) it’s beautiful

Ryan: yeah, well, put it on, get dressed

(Marissa closes the box and looks at Ryan)

Ryan: or not (takes off jacket) or not uhhh fine, forget it (sits) jus hang here

Marissa: look I know you’re only trying to be nice (sits) but uh I really need some time

Ryan: its fine I get that...but is it more than that I mean (Marissa looks at him pointedly) I mean when’s the last time we actually hung out together, alone

Marissa: (looks at Ryan) what you mean without Johnny (Ryan looks at her) (glares at Ryan)...your glad he’s gone aren’t you

Ryan: no I’m not even gonna answer that (frowns)

(Marissa blinks and Ryan leaves. the next thing we see is Marissa opening a drawer that has some clothes in it, she lifts a white top and underneath it is the angel necklace from Johnny, she puts the box she just got from Ryan down next to it and puts the top back over them both and closes the drawer)

CUT TO: Kirsten and Julie’s party - we see a beautifully lit walk way and then we see a gorgeous neon sign near the entrance. it’s a huge silver shell with the NewMatch logo and the word "presents" underneath that in blue neon is Sea-Sand-Stars and then down the bottom of the shell there is "Valentines at the Beach". we then see people dancing and having a good time. and then Sandy and Seth walking together

Sandy: did Summer give you back the bag

Seth: uh the conversation kinda went in a different direction after that

Sandy: oh

Seth: (to Ryan) hey, no Marissa

Ryan: yeah no Summer either

Seth: uh no she’s over there (points) with her date

(Ryan looks and we see Neil and Summer together)

Sandy: Valentines Day, it’s too much pressure (motions) there’s Matt I wonder if his date showed up

(we see Matt by himself at the bar thing)

Seth: oh cool another dude, I gotta go do somethin

(Seth walks away. the next thing we see is Kaitlin by herself, then Justin by himself, looking for her. after a few seconds he sees her, and she him. she half smiles and Justin gives her a huge smile back. aww. Justin makes his way through the crowd and over to her. Kaitlin shakes her head and half laughs)

Kaitlin: you gonna try ta act like this is a strange coincidence

Justin: not...anymore (Kaitlin laughs) can I buy you a drink

Kaitlin: (looks at Justin) I don’t know, can you (Justin smiles) still got that fake ID

(Justin smiles and holds his arm out, Kaitlin links hers through his and they walk off together - we then see Seth go over to Neil and Summer)

Seth: happy Valentines Day sir (Summer almost smiles) I was wonderin (sighs) if I could maybe borrow your daughter for a moment

Summer: (closes eyes) Cohen, I’m right here what'do you want

(Seth goes over to Summer and pulls her a little away from Neil)

Seth: I wrote you something

(Seth holds out a napkin with his writing on it. Summer takes it)

Summer: (looks) a cocktail napkin

Seth: it’s a confession, read it

(Summer looks at Seth frowning and then looks down at the napkin)

Summer: (reads) to whom it may concern, my name is Seth Cohen an I have a problem with flying

Seth: it says lying, eh- pen shook

Summer: (looks at Seth then continues to read) I have lied about many things over the years (Seth nods, watching) the most recent an troubling lies include but are not limited to the following-

Seth: an there’s a complete list on the back'a the napkin (Summer looks at him) all of my sins very detailed

Summer: Cohen I know (raises eyebrows) all of this

Seth: I know but if I ever screw up again (motions) you give that to my parents

Summer: (nods) hm, that’s pretty smart (looks at Seth) you may have just rocked my world (Seth smiles) I was hoping you'd come up with the half court shot at the buzzer

Seth: is that a sports metaphor I don’t...follow (smiles)

Summer: (grins sexily) I’m wearing (raises eyebrows) the thong

Seth: (screws up face) yeah that's-that's my moms

Summer: (screws up face) eww

CUT TO: The beach - we see Marissa walking by herself and she notices a bonfire, we then see that Dennis is sitting by the bonfire getting wasted, he looks up at Marissa

Marissa: what're you doing

Dennis: gettin wasted (Marissa nods) (looks at Marissa) you an me Marissa (Marissa looks at him) we're the only people who understand what we're goin through you know

Marissa: you might be right about that (sits)

Dennis: you know this emotional connection might be a really good platform (raises eyebrows) for a more physical one

Marissa: (laughs) I’m not gonna make out with you Chili

Dennis: (looks down) it’s not Chili anymore, I’m goin back to Dennis (Marissa looks at him) Johnny never liked that nickname anyways

(Marissa looks at Dennis, Dennis looks at her and then down sadly. Marissa puts her arm around Dennis and pulls him to her so his head is on her shoulder. aww. we then see them sitting together by the bonfire from a distance)

CUT TO: Kirsten and Julie’s party - we see Julie by herself

Waiter: care for some oysters ma'm

Julie: oh no, I don’t do oysters, if I’m gonna swallow something that disgusting there better be something in it for me

(the waiter walks away and Kaitlin and Justin walk over)

Kaitlin: hey, mom

Julie: oh hey baby, how are ya (hugs Kaitlin)

Kaitlin: um I was...thinking about leaving

Julie: oh, well then ill see you back at the house

Kaitlin: no I mean...leaving Newport an going back to school (Julie looks disappointed) tonight, Justin (motions to Justin) he offered to give me a ride (smiles)

(Justin walks over)

Julie: (looks at Justin) hello, Julie Cooper-Nichol Kaitlin’s mother (shakes Justin’s hand)

Justin: very nice ta meet you, you have a lovely daughter (Julie smiles, nods) ill drive under the speed limit, make sure she buckles her seatbelt (Julie looks at him then Kaitlin, Kaitlin looks at her) stop for coffee several times

Julie: (nods, smiles) thankyou Justin I appreciate that (Justin smiles) (to Kaitlin) well ill see you at parents weekend an promise me you are definitely coming back

Kaitlin: promise, you'll be seeing alot more of me

Julie: Kaitlin, I’m so sorry if this trip wasn’t everything you hoped for

Kaitlin: I’m a Cooper mom, ill survive (smiles)

(Julie and Kaitlin hug. aww)

Kaitlin: (softly) ok bye

(Justin and Kaitlin walk off together. Julie looks almost sad. she turns around and sees Neil drinking by himself)

Neil: hey

Julie: hello there

Neil: you look radiant tonight

Julie: thankyou (smiles)

Neil: I was hoping that we could talk

Julie: Neil you don’t have to explain

Neil: no I think I do

Julie: all this back an forth, coming together pulling away again, I think it’s...happening for a reason (Neil looks at her) we just don’t belong together

Neil: we both have very complex lives which (Julie nods) will make this...very complicated

Julie: right, I mean who’s looking to make life any more complicated (Neil looks at her) did you say will

Neil: I’m sorry it’s taken me this long to ask you this (Julie looks at him) but I lost my nerve when I wasn’t trusting my instincts, Julie uh...(looks at Julie) would you be my Valentine

(Julie smiles at Neil - we then see Kirsten walk over to Ryan standing by himself)

Kirsten: all alone tonight (Ryan nods) well I guess that’s to be expected under the circumstances

Ryan: Marissa an I have ben fighting alot...mainly about whether Johnny was just a friend (motions)

Kirsten: or if it was more than that

Ryan: she says it wasn’t, I don’t think she’s lying to me...I think she might be lying to herself...(raises eyebrows) an now that he’s gone I don’t know, how do we move forward, or if

Kirsten: well the nights not over, maybe there’s a little pit stop you could make on the way home

Ryan: (thinks) yeah actually there is, thanks

(Ryan leaves and Sandy goes over to Kirsten)

Sandy: how’s Ryan

Kirsten: oh, he has alot on his mind as usual

Sandy: (nods) o oo oo oo (Kirsten looks where Sandy is) Matt an Mia seem to be gettin along

(we see Matt and Mia laughing together at the bar. Kirsten is now closer to Sandy, they are almost in a hug)

Kirsten: d'you think there talking about business

Sandy: yyeah, I think right now he’s saying how ? now offers more space for emergency care an-an comp patient services

Kirsten: (smiles) I think she’s more concerned about wheel chair access in the lobby (looks at Sandy)

Sandy: aww she’s a good soul

(Kirsten puts her hands on Sandy’s shoulders just as a heart frame lights up gradually, it starts at the bottom and follows the heart shape till both sides reach at the top. there is smoke and pink fairy lights which are all up the inside and outside of the heart shape, its really pretty and well done)

CUT TO: The trailer - Kaitlin is packing inside and Marissa comes in. Kaitlin looks at Marissa, Marissa looks at her

Marissa: are you leaving

Kaitlin: yeah, don’t cry or anything (half laughs)

Marissa: look I know this wasn’t the best vacation you've ever had but (Kaitlin looks at her) I really am sorry for everything (sits)

Kaitlin: don’t be (shrugs) just figure it all out

Marissa: (frowns) figure what out

Kaitlin: what you really felt for Johnny

Marissa: (looks at Kaitlin) what'does it matter now (looks away)

(Kaitlin looks at Marissa, Marissa looks at her)

Kaitlin: well you keep telling yourself whatever you want, but it does matter

(Marissa closes her eyes and stands)

Marissa: I’m really glad you came back

Kaitlin: (looks up) I’m...kinda...sorta...maybe (thinks) might be ? (raises eyebrows)

(Marissa smiles and hugs Kaitlin)

CUT TO: Johnny’s house - we hear a knock at the door and then see the door open, Ryan is standing there. Sadie is the one who opened the door

Ryan: hi

Sadie: (suprised) hi

Ryan: I was uh was wondering if I could give you a hand

Sadie: (frowns) no no I got it thankyou

(Sadie looks behind her then back at Ryan)

Ryan: ok ill jus (goes to leave)

Sadie: I mean, really

Ryan: yeah yeah figured you could use the help (Sadie looks at him) if you want I could make the conversation a little more awkward

Sadie: well in that case please (raises eyebrows, smiles)

(Ryan goes inside and Sadie closes the door)

CUT TO: The road - Justin and Kaitlin are in the car. Kaitlin looks over at Justin with tears in her eyes, Justin looks at her

Justin: ok, I think there’s something in your eye, it couldn’t be, is that a tear

Kaitlin: (looks away, smiles) shut up (shakes head)

(Justin looks back at the road and Kaitlin looks out of the window. we can see that she is holding the teddy from earlier to her chest. aww)

Kaitlin: you know as weird as it may sound (looks at Justin) I think I’m actually gonna miss this place

(Justin looks over at Kaitlin again. Kaitlin looks back out of the window, the camera zooms in on her face and then we see the car drive past. the car disappears out of the shot and we see a sign that has Long Beach 24, Los Angeles 43 & Santa Barbara 137 on it

FADE TO: Kirsten and Julie’s party - we see Matt and Mia dancing together then this fades to Sandy and Kirsten kissing in each others arms, dancing. aww, that then fades to Neil and Julie by the water together, no one else is around. Neil has his hands on the small of Julies back and Julie has her hands on Neil’s shoulders, this fades to Seth and Summer making out on a towel on the sand, it’s possibly more but the shot is so dark I can’t tell, sorry. there is definitely heavy making out, this then fades to Marissa opening the drawer from earlier, she lifts the white top but this time Ryan’s and Johnny’s necklaces are side by side, she looks away then back down. we see her hand reach in and pull out the angel necklace. she closes the drawer and sits on the bed sadly looking at it, we see a shot of the necklace sitting in the palm of her hand then she closes her hand tightly and starts getting teary, she lies down on the bed curled up and looks at the necklace, upset

CUT TO: Johnny’s house - Ryan and Sadie are in the middle of packing Johnny’s room into boxes, it looks pretty bare. Sadie puts some books into a box that already has some surfing trophies in it. Ryan sits down and looks around, Sadie sits down and looks at him

Sadie: ...what're you thinking

Ryan: if I could've uh done or...said anything it wou- (sighs) would'a saved him

Sadie: (looks down) hm, well um (looks at Ryan) I think its a hard thing to accept, that life’s completely out of our control (Ryan looks at her) but you were there for him (Ryan frowns) at the end'a the day its all we can really do for each other y'know, just be there (Ryan looks at her) (smiles) an ill be in the kitchen if you need me

(Ryan looks up, blinks. Sadie stands and leaves the room. we see a close up of Ryan’s face and he sighs. then we see Sadie in the kitchen and hear a knock at the door, Sadie answers the door and Volchok is standing there)

Sadie: go away (tries to shut the door)

Volchok: look I jus wanna talk

Sadie: there’s nothin'a say

Volchok: you wouldnt'a come here if you didn’t wanna see me (smiles)

Sadie: its got nothin'a do with you an I think you should leave before I start screaming for the cops

Volchok: (leans forward, almost smugly) look we both know your not gonna do that

(Ryan comes and stands behind Sadie, Volchok notices him. Ryan looks at Volchok)

Volchok: what the hell is he doin here

(Sadie slams the door in Volchok's face)

Ryan: everything ok

Sadie: (looks at Ryan)...it is now (Ryan looks at her) you want tea

(Sadie smiles and heads back to the kitchen. Ryan looks out the window and we see Volchok heading towards his car, he stops and looks towards the house. Ryan looks away from the window and then back. Volchok looks straight at him and then keeps walking) - fade out
