00:00:00Hey, Ava Darling.

00:00:21Declan, what are you doing?

00:00:22That's a beautiful name.

00:00:24Ava Darling.

00:00:27Makes sense, I guess.

00:00:28A beautiful name for a beautiful girl.

00:00:34Right, did you like hit your head or something, Declan?

00:00:36You do know how beautiful you are, don't you?

00:00:46You are so not good at that.

00:00:49What?

00:00:50Is that like your first kiss or something?

00:00:53Got him.

00:00:55Oh, my God.

00:00:56I can't believe she thought a guy would actually be interested in her.

00:01:01There's a reason you're a virgin, loser.

00:01:03You guys really need to find new shit to laugh about?

00:01:19Hunter, what the fuck?

00:01:23You good?

00:01:24Enough, everyone.

00:01:29Let's get to class.

00:01:31Go learn something.

00:01:35Hunter.

00:01:37Just a man I wanted to see.

00:01:38Oh, practice ran late.

00:01:48I didn't have time to study.

00:01:51Life lasts longer than the duration of a soccer season.

00:01:54You need to start thinking about your future.

00:01:57And you deserve a future, Hunter.

00:02:00I know you're better than this.

00:02:02One more F and you're off the team.

00:02:04And finally, please remember there are Narcon injectors available at the front office.

00:02:13Stay safe and study hard.

00:02:15Don't you know it's not enough to be smart anymore?

00:02:18You're going to have to be willing to play dirty, too.

00:02:21Is that why you keep cheating your way to valedictorian?

00:02:23Just because you're the frontrunner now doesn't mean you won't have a little accident before the school year's out.

00:02:31You know, it was so easy to get you alone with my cousin this morning.

00:02:37You know, he's not afraid to beat up a girl.

00:02:41You should keep that in mind.

00:02:42You should keep that in mind.

00:03:12Ava, can I talk to you?

00:03:18It's Hunter.

00:03:19I promise you're safe.

00:03:20Why do you carry around travel-sized lotion-infused tissues?

00:03:40So I can help damsels in distress like you.

00:03:45No, I'm kidding.

00:03:49My little sister gets nosebleeds, so I just keep them with me.

00:03:54Look, I wanted to ask you if you'd ever consider starting a study group with me.

00:03:59Like, I think we'd be a good team and you could call it, I don't know, payback for helping you out earlier.

00:04:06Thanks, but no thanks.

00:04:09I can take care of myself.

00:04:12Really?

00:04:12You know, I heard what Jessica was saying to you out there.

00:04:18I could, um, I could offer you protection for a couple of those days you're always getting.

00:04:25And how would you protect me?

00:04:30I think Jessica and Declan would, you know, stop bothering you if they thought you were my girlfriend.

00:04:38But aren't you and, um, Jessica...

00:04:41Fuck you.

00:04:42No, not anymore.

00:04:44Right, but why not just friends?

00:04:49Because Jessica and Declan think guys and girls can't, you know, just be friends.

00:04:56So, you want to be my fake boyfriend for protection in exchange for me giving you all the answers to everything?

00:05:05Yeah, yeah, pretty much.

00:05:08I mean, I think it sounds like a good idea.

00:05:10Would you ever be, I don't know, interested in something like that?

00:05:14Oh, you're such a man whore.

00:05:19You know what, Hunter?

00:05:20Why don't you take your offer and shove it up your ass?

00:05:26Oh.

00:05:44You're right.

00:05:58There he is.

00:05:59My best salesman.

00:06:00I didn't come here to watch you grope your jailbait girlfriend.

00:06:14Fuck off, Hunter.

00:06:15Hey, Drew, you want me to show this kid his place?

00:06:18That fucking mouth of yours.

00:06:27I pay all your bills and you give me shit?

00:06:31You could stand to be a bit more grateful, you know.

00:06:34You're the one who came to me with that pathetic sob story about your little sister.

00:06:38Please, Mr. Carter, you don't understand.

00:06:41She's sick.

00:06:42I need the money.

00:06:45Little bitch.

00:06:46I'd kick your disrespectful ass if my business partners were so pleased with your numbers.

00:06:51Remember that.

00:06:52Speaking of, we're throwing a party here this weekend to invite all your little high school friends.

00:07:01I want a big crowd.

00:07:03I got a new shipment of pills coming in and I need my best salesman to be there to push them.

00:07:09Am I clear?

00:07:10You told Hunter Black to do what?

00:07:29Ava, you need to go back to him, apologize, and accept the deal.

00:07:33Why would I do that?

00:07:34Because if Jessica can't mess with you outside of the classroom,

00:07:37that means she'll have to beat you for valedictorian the old-fashioned way.

00:07:40And we all know that'll never happen.

00:07:47You gotta stop with those.

00:07:49Lauren Cabot overdosed on those last year.

00:07:51Because she was partying, cutting it with other drugs.

00:07:54You don't see me doing that, do you?

00:07:57I still think there's a better way to focus.

00:07:59And I still think you should take Hunter up on his offer.

00:08:03If you hurry, you could catch him after soccer practice.

00:08:06You know what?

00:08:07It's a great idea.

00:08:10Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.

00:08:13and I'm今回's going to have機.

00:08:18And then I'm going back.

00:08:19In the meantime, I'll show you how to cheat.

00:08:24I actually see all these different things.

00:08:28No more than a knife.

00:08:41hey you change your mind yet no i have not oh what is that is that grease it is grease

00:09:08from the robotics lab it's where i just was yeah okay if i get it all right academics that's your

00:09:16thing just like soccer is mine and you know normally i wouldn't ask you to help me cheat on

00:09:20anything but this is temporary i just gotta gotta get through soccer season into spring semester

00:09:25with my scholarship intact so i can graduate spring semester too late for jessica to catch up with me

00:09:31for valedictorian yeah i know

00:09:38if we're gonna be in a fake relationship we have to discuss parameters

00:10:01i mean we have to at least kiss if we're gonna look like a real couple

00:10:07maybe even a few trips to the nurse's office fine which leads me to rule number two

00:10:14no other hookups if we're a couple we're into each other and only each other

00:10:19all right then rule number three no catching feelings i don't want you getting all lovey-dovey

00:14:50not throwing me into the lion's den

00:14:52yeah well we have to keep up the ruse somehow

00:14:54speaking of

00:14:57pucker up buttercup

00:14:59babe

00:15:07not here okay let's let's go to the nurse's office

00:15:11what

00:15:23what

00:15:32When do you think this place will be done with renovations?

00:15:46Hopefully never.

00:15:51So, how long do we have to stay in here in order to sell it?

00:15:59About an hour, I'd say.

00:16:01Is that how long you stay with girls you actually like?

00:16:05I don't bring girls in here.

00:16:07But this is like the primetime hookup spot on campus.

00:16:12Yeah, but like you, I actually have standards.

00:16:19Can I ask you a question?

00:16:21Are you a virgin?

00:16:24You don't have to answer that.

00:16:25I'm just, you know, I'm curious because you're a pretty girl,

00:16:30and I figure you could get a boyfriend, like a real boyfriend, if you wanted one.

00:16:36I'll get lucky at college next year.

00:16:39I'll find another engineering student, and he'll help me change the world for the better.

00:16:44I'll also dabble in some Regency romance novels and look like a young Timothee Chalamet.

00:16:50So, the exact opposite of me.

00:16:55What about you then?

00:16:58Plenty of hookups.

00:16:59No real girlfriends.

00:17:01You really a man whore?

00:17:05You want to find out?

00:17:06What if I do?

00:17:30Do you really think that line would work?

00:17:33Well, it did on Jessica.

00:17:39Let me guess.

00:17:40Your situation shift ended so bad that you swore off real dating forever.

00:17:46No.

00:17:47No.

00:17:48I mean, it was bad.

00:17:49Like, definitely bad.

00:17:50But I think it's more to do with money.

00:17:55I'm at this school on scholarship, and if I lose a scholarship, I lose the opportunity to play in front of college scouts.

00:18:02And if I lose that opportunity, I can't go to college because, obviously, you know, I don't have a college fund, even though I work a bunch of jobs.

00:18:10But it's like at the end of the month, when the bills come in, all my money's just gone.

00:18:14So, I guess my point is that I can afford a girlfriend.

00:18:23For the record, the right girl won't care about money.

00:18:31She'll just want someone who cares.

00:18:32And, you know, not to give you a bigger ego than you already have, but I think you'd actually make a pretty okay boyfriend.

00:18:43Come on, dish already. Tell me what happened in the nurse's office.

00:19:01I mean, nothing, really.

00:19:05And I'd believe that if you didn't have these cute little stars floating around in your eyes.

00:19:10We just talked, really.

00:19:13But, it was nice, I guess.

00:19:17You know, he's shockingly an okay guy.

00:19:19Well, I always knew that.

00:19:23What are you talking about?

00:19:24Sophomore year, my car got a flat tire in the student parking lot.

00:19:28Everyone who was there started laughing at me because I couldn't change it.

00:19:31Except for Hunter.

00:19:33He actually got down on the ground and showed me how to do it.

00:19:38Speak of the devil.

00:19:43I'm making myself scarce.

00:19:46I just realized how much I need to pee.

00:19:48I asked my teachers for some extensions.

00:19:59They were all actually pretty cool about it.

00:20:03You know, high school gets a lot easier once you realize the teachers actually want you to succeed.

00:20:08Yeah, well, they gave me all these assignments to redo for a better grade.

00:20:12How long do you think it'll take you?

00:20:13Why?

00:20:14So you can academically hit it and quit it?

00:20:29Seriously?

00:20:30You can't even pretend to be an exclusive relationship?

00:20:33This is our first fight?

00:20:36What's up, Leah?

00:20:38Who's Leah?

00:20:39You're a smart girl, Eva.

00:20:40I'm sure you can figure it out.

00:20:43Of course I got time.

00:20:44What's going on?

00:20:57Hey.

00:20:58Still mad at me?

00:20:59Why didn't you finish this?

00:21:05That was, uh, that was due day of the rivalry game.

00:21:08It's really good.

00:21:11Holden Caulfield is traumatized.

00:21:13I always thought that just explained why he's such an asshole.

00:21:17But you went a step further.

00:21:20Yeah, I thought that's why he was protecting his sister.

00:21:23I never would have considered it that way.

00:21:27I was impressed.

00:21:28Wow, that's, uh, that's high praise coming from you?

00:21:32But you're lazy.

00:21:34It's honestly such a waste.

00:21:36You know, if you just finished what you started...

00:21:38You have no idea what you're talking about.

00:21:42I'm not lazy.

00:21:44I mean, I just told you how busy I always am.

00:21:46And it's not like it matters anyway.

00:21:49Like, academics isn't going to pay for my college.

00:21:52But you know what will?

00:21:53Soccer.

00:21:54So I spend my time playing soccer when I'm not trying to survive.

00:21:58Okay, okay.

00:21:59I get it.

00:22:00No, you don't get it, actually.

00:22:02If I'm not playing soccer, I'm, you know, worried sick to death about my sister helping my mom out.

00:22:07Your sister.

00:22:11Your sister.

00:22:12Leah.

00:22:14I'm an idiot.

00:22:17No, you're not an idiot.

00:22:18It's just...

00:22:19You only have to worry about school.

00:22:22Of course, you're going to be good at it.

00:22:26I'm sorry.

00:22:28For what I said.

00:22:31Okay, I, um, I gotta go to work.

00:22:34Do you want to come with me?

00:22:36You know, we could study there.

00:22:37How do you make money around here?

00:22:50I mean, there's not really anyone here to tip.

00:22:53Yeah, well, you know, soon I won't be able to make money anywhere because of those robots you're making.

00:22:58Hey, I build robots to help people.

00:23:01Okay.

00:23:01These can help visually impaired users do everyday tasks.

00:23:05See this part right here?

00:23:06It provides a color recognition.

00:23:09And if the user presses this button here, it uses a voice app to say out loud the color of the objects in their hand.

00:23:15Best of all, these can help recognize the value of money if the user wants to use cash to buy something.

00:23:21And it can even help with self-defense.

00:23:24It can really do all that?

00:23:26Well, it should.

00:23:27These are just prototypes and I'm still working on the voice app, but it should be finished by the time the Allstate Science Fair comes around.

00:23:33Price money's like 15K.

00:23:3415K.

00:23:35Damn, I gotta get into robotics.

00:23:37The money can help expand my work.

00:23:39And I'll start college next year off with an edge.

00:23:41Gotta admit, this, uh, this nerd shit is actually pretty cool.

00:23:47I am impressed, David, darling.

00:23:50Hmm.

00:23:50Okay, um, you know what?

00:24:04I think we should make a public appearance tonight.

00:24:06Gotta make this convincing and that means hanging with a couple of my friends.

00:24:09But it's a school night.

00:24:13Eva, I think you'd get less shit from people if you just broke the rules once in a while.

00:24:17They have been leaving Lily alone since she's been popping pills like every other person here.

00:24:22I'm not saying you gotta do that.

00:24:24I'm just, you know, maybe you should pretend to fit in.

00:24:29Come on.

00:24:30This is a party.

00:24:48You ever been to one of those?

00:24:48I was sixth grade at the arcade count.

00:24:53You just gotta show them you're one of them.

00:24:56How am I supposed to do that?

00:24:57Every time I open my mouth, I manage to insult someone.

00:25:02You know what?

00:25:05I'm talking on the dance floor.

00:25:06I'm talking on the dance floor.

00:25:31Great.

00:25:32They see a hot guy talking to me and assume it's another prank.

00:25:35You think I'm hot?

00:25:38You know what you look like.

00:25:42I think I know a way to make them believe we're actually dating.

00:25:47What's that?

00:25:50You trust me?

00:25:56I trust you.

00:26:05I trust you.

00:26:29Anyone recording now?

00:26:55Who cares?

00:26:59Look at this, now you're already on your second.

00:27:28A trick of the trade?

00:27:32Soccer is too important to be hung over all the time.

00:27:36Doesn't it get annoying, pretending all the time?

00:27:39Pretending to drink?

00:27:40Pretending you're not as smart as you really are?

00:27:44Pretending you're not a total softbee?

00:27:46Don't want my cover?

00:27:48I used to hate being unpopular.

00:27:51I get lonely sometimes.

00:27:55But at least I can never pretend to be anything but me.

00:28:00Hunter, there you are.

00:28:03Drew wants a word with you.

00:28:05Fuck.

00:28:06Right now?

00:28:07Please, don't leave me.

00:28:09Just ain't here.

00:28:11I'll be back in a minute.

00:28:12Okay?

00:28:13I don't like to be kept waiting.

00:28:14I didn't know I was on the clock tonight.

00:28:27Watch the attitude, kid.

00:28:28You work when I tell you to work.

00:28:32Understood?

00:28:33Yeah.

00:28:36Now, stay here, my boy is coming with some dope.

00:28:39Then we're heading right back out there to push.

00:28:41I still got pills.

00:28:42I can get them all out tonight.

00:28:43No.

00:28:44Fresh shipment just came in.

00:28:46New suppliers, new shit.

00:28:49Saw it that you brought a girl, by the way.

00:28:52Pretty little thing.

00:28:54She's not gonna be a problem now, is she?

00:28:57No, she doesn't matter, no.

00:29:05Good.

00:29:11What, did the cops recruit you or something?

00:29:29Are you here to narc on us, get us all arrested?

00:29:32I'm here with Hunter.

00:29:42So that's how you've been keeping up with me.

00:29:47I'd say eat a dick, but we both know no guy would ever touch you.

00:29:55Hunter can dress you up all you want.

00:29:58But everyone at this party knows you'll always be below us.

00:30:02Hunter accepts me just fine.

00:30:05And he wants to touch me.

00:30:09Please.

00:30:11You barely even know him.

00:30:14Where is he?

00:30:15Right now?

00:30:19That's what I thought.

00:30:21He's already gotten bored of you.

00:30:24Gone back to his own kind.

00:30:26Where do you think you are going?

00:30:33What the hell are you doing?

00:30:36Reminding you of your place.

00:30:38Go ahead.

00:30:39Do you mind?

00:30:40I can't believe you're bleeding all over me.

00:30:41I don't want to catch whatever diseases you have.

00:30:42What the hell is wrong with you?

00:30:43Just proving a point.

00:30:44You're too delicate.

00:30:45Too weak to be with someone like Hunter.

00:30:46You're too weak to be with someone like Hunter.

00:30:47You're too delicate.

00:30:48Too weak to be with someone like Hunter.

00:30:52No.

00:30:53No!

00:30:54No!

00:30:55No!

00:30:56No!

00:30:57No!

00:30:58No!

00:30:59Just proving a point you're too delicate too weak to be with someone like hunter

00:31:29Hmm

00:31:31Ava darling, huh?

00:31:36Those high school girls man, they'll get your ass in a lot of trouble

00:31:41Which reminds me do you remember that girl that Declan started to bring around the warehouse last year?

00:31:47Lauren Cabot? Yeah, Lauren

00:31:51sweet girl

00:31:53Too bad she didn't know how to keep her mouth shut

00:31:55Heard her asking way too many questions, and then that overdose

00:32:05What did you do?

00:32:07All I did was offer her a couple pills

00:32:10How was I supposed to know that she was gonna be mixing them?

00:32:14Word of advice keep your shit separate. I

00:32:18Would just hate to see your new girlfriend getting way over her head

00:32:25Oh

00:32:39Holy shit, that's gonna take forever to move you got two weeks. That's impossible. It better not be

00:32:46Good

00:32:54Now you get this done before the next shipment comes in and there's a bonus way

00:33:00The powers that be are interested in expansion

00:33:03Big time

00:33:05And that means taking care of my guys

00:33:08Hey, so you left me to hang out with your asshole friends. We're supposed to be dating. Remember

00:33:13I

00:33:15Know I know it's because I'm keeping up my end of the deal doing all your work. I had to okay

00:33:20You just don't understand. Meanwhile, I just got eaten alive in there

00:33:31Somewhere else anywhere else

00:33:34Is there a problem over here?

00:33:37Who the hell are you?

00:33:39None of your fucking business sweetheart. I thought you said she didn't matter

00:33:47Oh, I know I hurt you

00:33:53Go inside and wait for me. You do what I say

00:33:58Atta boy

00:34:06We're done

00:34:09It's what no ava that was what the hell am I getting out of the deal?

00:34:12You won't even protect me from your own friends. I'm trying. Okay. You just don't know everything. I know what I see

00:34:18And it's bullshit

00:34:21Just like one of your assignments

00:34:23Something you start but can't finish

00:34:26Ava don't

00:34:36mean

00:34:36You're done

00:34:37I know

00:34:38It's bullshit

00:34:40You're right

00:34:41I know

00:34:45I know

00:34:46I know

00:34:47I know

00:34:47Well, what?

00:34:48It's bullshit

00:34:49I know

00:34:50But the

00:34:51Is that bad?

00:34:53I know

00:34:53I can't think of this

00:34:54I know

00:34:56I know

00:34:57I know

00:34:58I know

00:34:59I know

00:35:00It's insane

00:35:02I know

00:35:03I know

00:35:04Red. Apples. Only.

00:35:34What? Where have you been?

00:35:43Does it matter I'm here now?

00:35:46It's too late. I finished the test and I have to get to first period.

00:35:49Then what do you want from me, Ava?

00:35:52What is wrong with you?

00:35:54I'm just so tired of you judging, judging, judging all the time.

00:35:58Thinking you're so much better than everyone else. Better than me.

00:36:01I've never thought that about you.

00:36:04Lily, you're really worrying me.

00:36:11Save it. Worry about yourself.

00:36:27Hey.

00:36:28I know you don't want to talk to me.

00:36:30But just so I can, you know, keep up my end of the deal.

00:36:38After the whole Jessica thing, I just want you to be able to protect yourself.

00:36:42Ava.

00:36:55I'm really sorry.

00:36:59I, uh, I did the reading.

00:37:01You read Their Eyes Were Watching God.

00:37:06Okay, maybe I listened to the audio book, but remember that part after chapter eight, like just after Joe dies?

00:37:12It got me thinking about how sometimes you don't realize you're treating someone like shit until after it's too late.

00:37:19And, you know, you wish you could have realized sooner.

00:37:21And I guess I just realized, you know, or I wish I realized sooner.

00:37:27Well, better late than never, I guess.

00:37:39Do you want to go eat lunch?

00:37:43You know, I'm going to be alone, and I thought maybe you are going to be alone, or...

00:37:47Actually, maybe you're not. I'm sorry.

00:37:49I'm just going to be...

00:37:49What is it with all the people I care about just suddenly foregoing basic self-care?

00:38:12So you care about me?

00:38:14Don't get a big head about it.

00:38:15You're like a stray dog that looks tough, but really just wants a belly rub.

00:38:21Does this mean we can be friends?

00:38:24Sure.

00:38:25Friends.

00:38:32I don't have many friends that look at me like that.

00:38:35No, I wasn't, but...

00:38:37Anyways, I didn't finish your assignment.

00:38:41But I did tell you how to finish it yourself.

00:38:46Quickly, too.

00:38:47So it doesn't take up too much time away from your soccer practice.

00:39:01Oh.

00:39:04That's really nice of you, Ava.

00:39:06You know, I think we, uh, we better get to class.

00:39:14Before we're late.

00:39:16You know, because I'm really into that kind of stuff now.

00:39:18I don't know.

00:39:43Lily?

00:40:13Lily!

00:40:16Lily?

00:40:19Lily?

00:40:19Lily!

00:41:42What you need, I got you.

00:42:12Woah, what the hell? Did you know all your friends are dealing drugs? What? I called one of their little numbers and Declan picked up. Lily overdosed. The paramedic said that she had traces of fentanyl in her system. Fentanyl? That's, um, that's, that's terrible. If I'd, she okay? She will be. I just talked to her parents, but God, if I would have given her the Narcan any later.

00:42:42You know, she has to go to, like, some sober high school or something, and I'll have no one.

00:42:51I'm so sorry. I, I, I had no idea.

00:42:58There's a sober lining, at least. I made an anonymous call to the principal. They're doing a drug search of Declan's locker first thing tomorrow morning.

00:43:12It's clean.

00:43:22All right, everyone. False alarm. Let's move it along. Back to class.

00:43:28Do you know how much my parents donated to this school when I got in?

00:43:30You'll be getting a call from them very soon.

00:43:42When I find out who did this, and I will find out,

00:43:47you are gonna pay.

00:43:50Oh, damn it.

00:44:06Gotta win it for the both of us now.

00:44:07Why didn't you get out of the hospital?

00:44:17About an hour ago.

00:44:1972-hour hold let up.

00:44:21I just came to school to pick up my stuff.

00:44:25Look,

00:44:25I know I ruined my life, but I...

00:44:29That's not true.

00:44:31It's always possible to start over.

00:44:33And you still have me?

00:44:36Yeah.

00:44:36Thanks for saving my life, by the way.

00:44:39Just don't make me do it again.

00:44:43I should go. My mom and dad are waiting.

00:44:45See you soon.

00:44:46See you soon.

00:44:46That was soon.

00:45:07You know what they say about snitches, right?

00:45:09Right?

00:45:09I warned you, didn't I?

00:45:32I told you to keep your shit separate.

00:45:34If you didn't orchestrate the drug search, come on, bro.

00:45:38Right.

00:45:39Now, if you didn't bring in that shady shipment,

00:45:42none of this shit would have happened.

00:45:44Fentanyl?

00:45:44I never agreed to sell that shit, bro.

00:45:46Keep your fucking voice down.

00:45:49You don't like it?

00:45:50You can leave.

00:45:51Yeah?

00:45:52I'll leave.

00:45:53I want out.

00:45:56That's fine.

00:45:58You can go.

00:45:59I'm not tripping.

00:46:01Just as soon as you pay me back for what you ever sold.

00:46:05What?

00:46:05That money's got to come from somewhere, Hunter.

00:46:11You or your customers.

00:46:13I'll let you decide which.

00:46:16And don't worry.

00:46:17I'm not going to touch Ava.

00:46:19I'm letting the girls figure it out themselves.

00:46:21But where is Ava?

00:46:37I don't know what you're talking about.

00:46:40And I'm getting really tired of you insulting my intelligence.

00:46:54Fine.

00:46:55I did it.

00:46:56I called in the drug search.

00:46:58Happy?

00:47:00Oh, you're not going anywhere.

00:47:03You're going to pay for what you just tried to do to my family.

00:47:07And hey,

00:47:08maybe this will take you out of the valedictorian race, too.

00:47:20Ava!

00:47:20What happened?

00:47:24Are you okay?

00:47:25I'm fine.

00:47:25I'm going to kill you, Ava, darling!

00:47:29Okay.

00:47:30Come on.

00:47:31We can hang here without anyone asking questions.

00:47:44My mom and my sister are in Arizona again.

00:47:48It's better than my place.

00:47:50My parents would ask a million questions.

00:47:54I, uh,

00:47:54I thought they trusted you.

00:47:57They do.

00:47:58But I'm never home this early from the lab.

00:48:01They'd know something was wrong.

00:48:11Why are your mom and sister in Arizona?

00:48:14Uh,

00:48:15just, uh,

00:48:16like a trip they go on every few weeks.

00:48:21It's because she's sick, right?

00:48:23Your sister, Leah?

00:48:25Oh.

00:48:25How do you,

00:48:28how do you know that?

00:48:32I found this in your mom's jacket.

00:48:41It's from her first hospital visit.

00:48:42I don't know why my mom keeps this stuff.

00:48:46I get it.

00:48:52Sometimes

00:48:53painful things are important to hold on to.

00:48:59She has leukemia.

00:49:04She's had it since she was a kid.

00:49:06And, you know,

00:49:07it went away,

00:49:07but a couple years ago,

00:49:09it came back.

00:49:09And I guess

00:49:12since then,

00:49:13everything's kind of just falling apart.

00:49:17Like, uh,

00:49:18my mom can only work a part-time job

00:49:21because she's got to take Leah in

00:49:23for all of her treatment,

00:49:24so we're stuck in the Section A department.

00:49:27And, you know,

00:49:27I,

00:49:28I offered to drop out of school

00:49:31and work full-time,

00:49:32but my mom refuses.

00:49:35She says Leah's going to grow up on her,

00:49:37and,

00:49:38you know,

00:49:40she's going to need a role model.

00:49:46Some role model I am,

00:49:47you know.

00:49:48You're a good guy, Hunter,

00:49:50but your friends,

00:49:51your friends are psycho.

00:49:53Why do you even hang out with them?

00:49:57Loyalty.

00:49:58Nostalgia, I guess.

00:49:59No.

00:50:00I mean,

00:50:00we were close when we were kids.

00:50:02But, you know,

00:50:03I guess I feel like you

00:50:05a lot of the time.

00:50:07You know how you said

00:50:08if you didn't have Lily,

00:50:09you'd have no one?

00:50:11Yeah, I,

00:50:13I don't know,

00:50:14I feel like I'm alone.

00:50:18Most of the time,

00:50:20honestly.

00:50:20Well, I guess it's good

00:50:33we have each other then.

00:50:34Wait, I'm,

00:50:59I know you said nothing physical.

00:51:01What, when?

00:51:01Sounds like your first rule,

00:51:04no?

00:51:05Our deal is off,

00:51:06anyway.

00:51:07Oh, yeah,

00:51:08I forgot.

00:51:09Besides,

00:51:10I think we might have just

00:51:11broken your rule, too.

00:51:16Unless

00:51:16you're not feeling

00:51:19the same things

00:51:19I'm feeling.

00:51:20Um,

00:51:26right.

00:51:27Okay,

00:51:28my mistake.

00:51:30Emotions are running high today.

00:51:32You're

00:51:32being nice,

00:51:33and I shouldn't have

00:51:34read into that.

00:51:35Ava.

00:51:36Make signals much?

00:51:49I'm sorry,

00:51:50I'm just,

00:51:50I'm just really bad

00:51:51at talking about this stuff.

00:51:53But I promise you

00:51:54there's feelings.

00:51:56You make me feel

00:51:56brave enough to feel them.

00:51:59You make me feel brave, too.

00:52:01If you don't want to talk,

00:52:20that's okay.

00:52:24Why don't you show me?

00:52:26I thought you said

00:52:28you wanted to wait.

00:52:30Hunter,

00:52:31I trust you.

00:52:34Who knows

00:52:35when that will ever

00:52:36happen again.

00:52:40I always want to be

00:52:41someone you can trust.

00:52:45Always.

00:52:56We'll go slow,

00:53:09right?

00:53:10Mm-hmm.

00:53:11Slow as you want.

00:53:13And we can stop anytime.

00:53:17Okay.

00:53:18I'm ready.

00:53:26This feels good.

00:53:31I mean,

00:53:31it like,

00:53:32tickles,

00:53:32but in a good way,

00:53:34you know?

00:53:36Should I,

00:53:37should I take off

00:53:38my clothes?

00:53:39You know?

00:53:39Because...

00:53:40Ava.

00:53:40There you go.

00:53:56Ava.

00:54:13Ava.

00:54:18Ava.

00:54:19Can I say something?

00:54:37Has anyone ever stopped you from saying something?

00:54:40Hey, you like that about me.

00:54:42No, I do.

00:54:43What do you want to say?

00:54:44I'm really starving.

00:54:54Okay, why don't we go on a real date then?

00:54:59See a show and go to a dinner.

00:55:02A show?

00:55:04Okay, like a movie at the discount theater.

00:55:07Are you getting all lovey-dovey on me, Hunter Black?

00:55:10Are you saying yes?

00:55:12I'm saying, of course.

00:55:34Okay, I admit, when you said dinner, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind.

00:55:38Not that I mind an affordable option.

00:55:42It's just, this is where you work, Em.

00:55:45I don't want your mind to be on work all night.

00:55:47Trust me, my mind's going to be on something else.

00:55:53I just have to drop something off.

00:55:56Something I should have dropped off a long time ago.

00:55:58All right.

00:56:00Are you okay?

00:56:01You seem nervous.

00:56:02No, I've just, I've never been on a real date before.

00:56:07Can I just come with you?

00:56:19Do you still trust me?

00:56:21I still trust you.

00:56:24Okay.

00:56:24I still trust you.

00:56:54Hey, who's there?

00:57:13What?

00:57:26Jesus, dude.

00:57:30You scared the shit out of me.

00:57:31What are you doing here?

00:57:31Hunter? Where are you?

00:58:01Drew was worried you'd do something stupid. Told me to watch the place. I guess he was right.

00:58:16Ava. Please, let me explain in the car.

00:58:28I tried giving you the benefit of the doubt, but of course you were involved with this the whole time.

00:58:32No, Ava, Ava, we can't be here right now.

00:58:34Did you sell them to her? The drugs Lily overdosed on?

00:58:37No, I didn't. I promised you I didn't.

00:58:39As soon as I found out the pills had fentanyl in them, I stopped. That's why I'm here. I'm giving everything back.

00:58:44Ava, I can't do this shit anymore. I don't want to do this shit anymore.

00:58:48You showed me that I can be better, Ava.

00:58:53I want to trust you. You still lied to me.

00:58:59Okay, I'm not asking you to trust me right now. I'm asking you to give me a chance to prove that you can.

00:59:03Because I love you, Ava.

00:59:09Don't. Don't say that if you don't mean it.

00:59:14I mean it.

00:59:16I love you too.

00:59:35As long as I have you, I don't care what happens to me next.

00:59:39You know what we have to do, right? We have to go to the cops now.

00:59:48Look who we have here. Two for the price of one.

00:59:52I told you I wanted out. You really thought it was going to be that easy?

01:00:07I, I, I, where do you think you're going?

01:00:12Hey, let her go.

01:00:13Let her go.

01:00:34Trust me, that next shot won't be in the air.

01:00:36To the warehouse.

01:00:41Now.

01:00:55Whoa.

01:00:57Hold, Hunter.

01:00:59The hell is wrong with you guys? This is crazy.

01:01:01No.

01:01:02This is survival.

01:01:06Look who it is.

01:01:15Hit her, baby.

01:01:19Ava.

01:01:20That's my girl.

01:01:22Tie her up.

01:01:27Hunter!

01:01:29Fucking let her go.

01:01:30Inside! Now!

01:01:42Come on, man. Don't do this.

01:01:47Declan, you killed Lauren.

01:01:50Her OD wasn't an accident, man.

01:01:52He's a monster.

01:01:54I know.

01:01:56You know, what are you...

01:01:58Aren't you fucking angry?

01:02:00Of course I'm fucking angry.

01:02:01What am I supposed to do about it, huh?

01:02:03If they go down, they're gonna take me down with them.

01:02:13That's it.

01:02:18We have to do something.

01:02:20They can't pull this shit again.

01:02:21Don't worry, baby.

01:02:22I know just what to do.

01:02:24I know just what to do.

01:02:38You're afraid, aren't you?

01:02:40Fuck off.

01:02:42You are.

01:02:44You're always afraid.

01:02:45Not just now.

01:02:48That's why you have to crawl and scrape and bite for power every chance you get.

01:02:53Deep down inside,

01:02:55you're more afraid than anyone else.

01:02:58And now you've shacked up with this psycho.

01:03:01Just because you don't have to do this, you can still...

01:03:04I said shut up!

01:03:06Gaggar.

01:03:07Gaggar.

01:03:09Gaggar.

01:03:29Ava's a good person, Declan. She doesn't deserve it.

01:03:33She saved me, man. She showed me that I'm not alone.

01:03:35That's what I thought, too.

01:03:38About Lauren.

01:03:40I thought I finally found someone who had my back.

01:03:45I really loved her.

01:03:47You know, these are the pills your friend, Lily, took.

01:04:01The same pills that caused the OD you saved her from.

01:04:07Too bad she isn't here to return the favor.

01:04:09Wait, what?

01:04:13What are you doing?

01:04:15I'm doing what needs to be done.

01:04:19Drew, you can't do this again.

01:04:21Then why not?

01:04:23I got away with the last song.

01:04:27Please, Declan.

01:04:29Don't let them hurt Ava.

01:04:31Don't let them hurt Ava like they hurt Lauren.

01:04:32Don't let them hurt Lauren.

01:04:44Do you have a better idea?

01:04:45I'm gonna have a lot of fun making sure you choke this down.

01:04:59Who?

01:05:02Baby!

01:05:03Jessica, shoot her!

01:05:09Did you kill them?

01:05:10They're just electrocuted.

01:05:12Unconscious.

01:05:13Well, I have to kill you.

01:05:15Jessica, please.

01:05:16Please, please, don't do this.

01:05:17You don't have to do this, Jessica, please.

01:05:33Hunter.

01:05:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:05:43Ava, no, don't do this to me.

01:05:44Come on, Ava, don't do this.

01:05:46Don't do this to me, come on.

01:05:53Hunter, what are you doing?

01:06:00Yeah, 911, I need help.

01:06:01Cops?

01:06:02How did you kill them?

01:06:03I don't fucking care.

01:06:05I'm at 5246 Pine Lane.

01:06:07You gotta hurry.

01:06:14Come on, come on, come on, come on.

01:06:16Go, get out of here.

01:06:17Come with me, man.

01:06:19If they find you, they'll arrest you.

01:06:20You'll go to jail.

01:06:22Yeah, would you have left Lauren?

01:06:32Run.

01:06:33Run!

01:06:43Don't do this to me.

01:06:44Come on, don't do this.

01:06:45There she is.

01:06:46You flew in for my graduation?

01:07:00Great speech.

01:07:01Wasn't a dry eye in the house.

01:07:02They're all just impressed because I got shot.

01:07:03Can I see the scar?

01:07:05Went straight through.

01:07:06Didn't even hit a nerve.

01:07:07Doctors said it was a miracle.

01:07:08You're such a badass.

01:07:09And a total genius.

01:07:10How about we talk about the elephant in the room?

01:07:25said it was a miracle. You're such a badass. And a total genius. So, how about we talk

01:07:38about the elephant in the room? Why haven't you seen Hunter? I heard he just got out of

01:07:43prison. He knows you gave the science fair prize money to his family, right? I'm assuming

01:07:51someone told him. Are you mad at him? No. He gave up everything for me. Of course I'm

01:07:59not mad at him. He saved my life. More than that, he probably saved a bunch of lives. You

01:08:06know, his testimony sent Drew and Rex away for life. And Jessica got ten years. And

01:08:12his cooperation got him a shorter sentence. So you pay him back by completely ghosting

01:08:18him? I didn't know what to say. It's been six months and you always know what to say.

01:08:24How have you not figured out what to say? I don't know, because thank you for saving my

01:08:29life. I'm sorry I ruined yours. Doesn't exactly have a romantic ring to it. So you do still

01:08:37like him. Hunter's got a lot going on. He hasn't seen his family in six months. I'm sure I'm the

01:08:47last person he's thinking of right now. I'm pretty sure that's not true.

01:08:50I should go. I can't even be alone for five minutes without my parents sending out a search

01:08:59party. So, last day of school tomorrow. We still on for our annual tradition of rom-coms

01:09:06and cookie dough. Chocolate chips, Heath Ledger, and no bras. Who needs drugs when you've got

01:09:11action like that? Kidding. I love you, you know. I love you too, Lils. I've got good news

01:09:30news, and even better news.

01:09:54Chloe? Chloe?

01:10:00What are you doing here? I'm gonna kill Lily. Please don't. She was actually a really

01:10:12good wingwoman, apart from her wanting me to sing you a Frankie Valli song. I thought

01:10:18it was a bit too much, and, you know, I can't sing for shit. You look good. So do you.

01:10:30Hey, I'm so sorry. Like, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness.

01:10:36Stop. Look at me.

01:10:37What?

01:10:38You saved me, honey. You saved me.

01:10:43No, we saved each other.

01:10:46If it wasn't for our fake relationship, I never would have gotten out of that life.

01:10:51You're welcome.

01:10:52So, what now? Are you gonna re-enroll next fall somewhere, or?

01:10:59I actually managed to get my GED while I'm in prison.

01:11:03What?

01:11:04Yeah.

01:11:04That's incredible, Hunter.

01:11:06Mm-hmm. Well, the smartest girl I know taught me how to study, so it wasn't too hard.

01:11:09I think I'm just gonna do some independent study next year, re-apply to colleges at the

01:11:16end of that. I can do that from anywhere, so. You know, things are actually looking good

01:11:21for my life, but there's still this one thing I feel like I'm missing.

01:11:28Mm-hmm.

01:11:30That's where you come in. You know, I could really use a good tutor.

01:11:33That could work.

01:11:40Really?

01:11:42Because I could really use a boyfriend.

01:11:51Just come here already.

01:11:52Yeah, I just want her before I'm ever young.

01:11:57Yeah, I just want her before I'm ever young.

01:12:02I'm off the ground, no one can stop me now.

01:12:07Yeah, I just want her before I'm ever young.
