One Tree Hill

Previously on One Tree Hill...

You are heading down a dangerous pass.

You don't have a job.

Your honor...

She does have a job.

She works for me.

How did we get the funding for the movie?

My father and I put up the money, because I believe in you.

All day long I've been trying to figure out

how to get past the you-and-Alex thing.

Maybe right now, you need to work on you,

and I need to work on me.

Goodbye, Brooke.

Hey, Tay.

You remember...

I prefer to call him my new boyfriend.

Haley, stop!

Sorry.

Just trying to wake Taylor and David.

I'm sure you did,

Along with the rest of the neighborhood.

How long have you been up?

Since I dreamt that my sister

was screwing my other sister's husband.

Ex-husband.

Did you dream that too that's so weird.

Did I kill them in yours?

No, actually, you played it cool.

Well, then you really were dreaming,

because there's no way to play this cool.

This is the most uncool thing Taylor's ever done.

Morning, kids.

Good morning, slut.

You can get your things and go now.

What's wrong?

Are you still mad about me and David?

That's so last night.

You like that outfit enough to get buried in,

or you want to go put something on?

Why? It's nothing he hasn't seen before.

But if you insist.

Come... are you gonna say something?

"I love you"?

Good morning!

Oh, hey, I almost forgot.

We're late for the video-game shoot.

Better get going.

Have a good day, Hales. Love you.

Bye, mom.

This house is perfect for the movie.

How were you able to get it for free?

What can I say? I'm a great producer.

No, it's Lucas' house. He said we could use it.

How's rehearsal going with Alex Dupre?

I see she and Peter are...

I think it's important for a director and actor

to establish boundaries early on.

I know he's a little high-maintenance,

but the guy's talented.

Besides, the clock was ticking,

and we didn't have much of a budget.

Alex.

Alex Dupre, this is my father, Paul Norris.

It's nice to finally meet you, Paul.

Nice to meet you, too, Alex.

I've seen you in the trades.

I've seen you in the tabloids.

That was the old me.

Good... I shouldn't have to tell you

how important this film is to both Julian and myself.

You don't have to worry about her, dad. She's here to work.

Yep. I'm a professional.

You're certainly dressed like one.

Oh, thank you.

I picked it out myself since we don't have a wardrobe person.

- Could we get to work, please? - Bye.

I haven't hired a costume designer yet.

Why not?

The person I wanted didn't work out.

Dare I ask what's in the box?

You're staring at it like someone sent you a severed head.

It's Julian's stuff.

He broke up with me last night.

Oh, honey, I'm sorry, dear.

A head would have been an improvement.

I want to take it to him,

but I just don't think I can see him right now.

And I really don't want to see Alex.

Even if her head were severed?

Stop talking about severed heads!

Okay, how about I take care of the box?

Okay?

I mean, we run a multimillion-dollar company.

I'm sure we can afford a courier.

There's no need for unnecessary drama.

Before I forget,

Millicent is working with us again.

Shall be in this morning.

So much for our security deposit.

Sorry about the mess.

I'll clean it when I get back from work.

I'm not worried about the place. I'm worried about you.

Are you okay?

Not really, but I'm trying.

Have you thought about going back to rehab?

Yeah, I've thought about it.

Well, lemme know if there's anything I can do to help.

How long are you staying?

I'm not sure. Maybe... a day or two?

But you'll be here when I get home?

Yeah.

That helps.

Come on.

You cannot expect me to honestly believe

that this... thing between the two of you

is anything more than some sick joke.

What's so sick about it?

David's a great guy.

Quinn couldn't see it. I can.

Can't you just be happy for us?

You know what would make me happy,

is throwing you out a window.

But I'm gonna settle for you using the front door.

That's no way to treat your sister

and possible two-time brother-in-law.

Good morning, Haley.

"Good morning." Yeah, don't "morning" me, David.

You will have to forgive my sister.

She's cranky this morning.

Hopefully, she'll be in a better mood tonight.

David and I are cooking dinner for everyone tonight.

No, that's not happening! You can't...

That's not happening... not tonight, not ever.

Why not? Quinn already agreed to it.

I'll see you tonight.

David!

How can you do this to Quinn?

It's no worse than what she did to me.

I told them we slept together.

What?

So, now you want me to go to dinner with your ex,

who probably wants to kill me,

and your sister, who's obviously insane?

Yeah, it's okay.

You don't have to come if you don't want to.

I just... I don't get it.

I know why David wants to hurt you,

but why would your own sister go along with it?

You have to know Taylor.

When we were kids, she tried stealing my boyfriends.

And now she's after my ex-husband.

So, I guess she never grew up.

And that doesn't bother you?

A little, but not nearly as much as that does.

See, how cool is your dad?

I mean, not now, of course,

but he is gonna look great in this new video game.

When do I get to play?

Well, the game won't be ready for a month,

but we shod be able to get you a prototype to play tonight.

You look good covered in balls.

Now I know how Taylor feels.

Hey, speaking of, I, uh...

Take it you heard about this dinner tonight?

Yes.

I got a very angry text message from my wife.

You coming?

No, I, uh, think I have some work to catch up on.

Quinn's okay with that?

I mean, if Haley's this pissed,

I can't imagine how upset Quinn must be.

It's strange, but she seems okay.

She was more upset by Kylie showing up

for a swim in my pool this morning.

Who is Kylie?!

Some chick who took a whore bath in Clay's pool this morning.

My God, Quinn, that's awful.

Must just make you want to rip David's head off

and punch Taylor right in her fat face.

You shouldn't let them get to you.

How are they not getting to you?

David has a right to be upset with me,

and Taylor's always been a bitch.

So what do you want me to do?

Uh, I don't know, say no when they invite you to dinner.

Clay makes me happy, Haley!

Why shouldn't David be happy?

I mean, I can't imagine that Taylor is the one for him,

but if she is, I'll deal with it.

Just like that?

If they want to throw their relationship in my face,

I have to let them know it doesn't bother me, right?

No! Not right! And let me tell you something.

If Nathan and I got divorced

and he and Taylor showed up playing kissy-face,

not only would I never see them again,

nobody else would, either.

So you're saying I should kill them.

I mean, it's a little extreme, don't you think?

No, you're right.
