00:00We'd been dating for three years, when I found tons of intimate photos of Chase and his first love on
00:05his laptop.
00:07March 25th, 2020. First birthday with Serena.
00:10May 8th, 2020. First movie with Serena.
00:14June 9th, 2020. The day we fell in love.
00:17September 27th, 2021. The love of my life is moving to New York. This is killing me.
00:28Serena?
00:30Still talking?
00:31Figures. No wonder he bolted. Left his laptop, left his watch, left those pictures up like a billboard.
00:38He ran off to see Serena, the love of his life.
00:47Chase, pick up! What are you doing?
00:54Wait.
01:01I snagged a near-impossible rez at a Chinese spa tonight. Wanna go?
01:05Chase! I'm flying back from New York to LA tonight.
01:08Great! Let's grab dinner on Melrose. That fringe place we used to hit.
01:12Perfect! I'll wait for you.
01:16Heads up. Rain's coming. If you head out, grab an umbrella. Okay? Don't get soaked.
01:21Forecast says rain. Stay inside the terminal. I'll pick you up right after training.
01:26I always told myself you weren't a texter, but it turns out you just weren't texting me.
01:38Hey, my girl. What happened?
01:41Bella, before I transferred to Whitney High, what's Serena and Chase's story?
01:47Well, they were legends.
01:50Serena was two grades ahead. Drop-dead gorgeous.
01:54Chase was a freshman. Tall, build, racking up sports trophies.
01:58They were childhood friends, too. Everyone said they were endgame.
02:03Then Serena left for college in New York, and poof!
02:06The whole long-distance thing just fizzled.
02:09So it really ran that deep.
02:12One more thing.
02:14If they were that in love, why did he pick me back then?
02:17Don't bite my head off, but rumor has it, Chase has been trying to get over Serena,
02:23but you kind of look like her, look like her, look like her.
02:28Three years loving you, I gave you everything.
02:35Turns out I was just a replacement for your first love.
02:39You never loved me.
02:44Dad? I'll do it.
02:46Next month, I'll move back.
02:47I'll transfer to a university in New York and start an internship at the family company.
02:52That's wonderful, sweetheart.
02:53You finally came around.
02:56Chase, next month I was going to take you home.
03:00Introduce you to my parents.
03:02Tell you who I really am.
03:04But...
03:05Didn't expect the anniversary countdown would turn into a breakup countdown.
03:17Three years ago, I transferred to Whitney High.
03:25No!
03:31Great.
03:32Now I have to track down Mr. Smith and get another signature.
03:35He's such a jerk.
03:40Hey, Mr. Folder?
03:56So much easier.
03:57Mr. Folder?
04:05This yours?
04:06Y-y-yeah.
04:10What's your name?
04:11I'll thank you properly another time.
04:13Chase Donovan.
04:14Don't worry about it.
04:18Chase.
04:20Yeah.
04:22He moves like he's bracing the clock.
04:26I'll thank him later.
04:27Class first.
04:29Let's welcome to the 2022 High School League Men's 100-yard Freestyle Champion...
04:38Chase Donovan!
04:46It's him.
04:47Oh my god, I finally get to see Chase in person.
04:50He is so hot.
04:51Chase!
04:52I love you!
04:53Who ever ends up as his girlfriend, Lucky doesn't even begin to cover it.
04:56I think that's me.
05:02You?
05:03A nerd?
05:04Keep dreaming, babe.
05:05He's our campus heart dog.
05:06And the line to date him stretches from LA to New York.
05:10Bella, you think I can actually land him?
05:13Aria, are you out of your mind?
05:16No.
05:17I'm not.
05:19I'm not.
05:19I can't say he's this.
05:35I can't say he's this.
05:35I don't know.
05:39I think what happens he's this.
05:40He's the one who's coming.
05:40I'm not.
05:40I don't understand.
05:49Bella, are you sure he'll like this?
05:54Full proof, trust me. This is the move.
05:58You've chased him for a year, babe.
06:00Attempt 15. Stick to landing.
06:15You look just like her.
06:17Like who?
06:19Nothing. Forget it. Be my girlfriend.
06:25Okay. Yeah.
06:31From day one, I was just the replacement.
06:34Time to wake up from this pretty lie.
06:38Chase, I don't regret loving you.
06:40But I'm taking that love back.
06:49Babe, thanks for getting my laptop and the watch.
06:52I rushed to practice last night, totally spaced.
06:56Mm-hmm. Practice is very important.
07:01A countdown? Big thing in 28 days?
07:04Bought it yesterday. Have something due in 28 days.
07:08Cool.
07:13How's the fit?
07:15It's Saturday. We said we catch the sunset at Lover's Peak.
07:18You planning on wearing that to a lookout?
07:22Uh, actually, I kind of got called in last minute. Coach needs me. Can't make that sunset.
07:30Okay.
07:31But hey, don't be upset, okay? Next month I'll be free. We'll go then.
07:37Coach needs you. In a suit? Please. He didn't even bother with a decent lie.
07:43Next month? By then, I'll be gone.
07:47I'll swing back by later with some truffle chocolates. Get some rest, yeah?
07:56Oh, I'm craving trouble chocolates.
08:00So the chocolates are for your high school sweetheart. I'm just an afterthought.
08:08Wait, Serena has the same cat lamp?
08:12Well, I'll take you down now.
08:17It's all for knockoff.
08:19The lamp, the mud, the notebook. I'll just promise on your Serena remake.
08:30Not anymore. I'm done playing the stand-in. Time to go.
08:37It's me, Chase.
08:44Your desk looks different. Is something missing?
08:49It just tells some stuff I don't need.
08:52Yeah. Useless stuff. Probably best to dump it.
08:56Those were your gifts. You didn't even notice.
08:59Figures. Your eyes are all Serena now.
09:02Oh, Arya. Know anywhere I can get a hand-knit scarf?
09:07Getting cold. Wish I had a special scarf.
09:11Hand-knit? Not many people can do that.
09:16Right.
09:18Oh, wait. You used to knit, didn't you?
09:23You really want a hand-knit scarf that bad?
09:26Of course, Bae. You're so good with your hands.
09:30Knit one for me, please.
09:32It's freezing out, and I could really use one after practice.
09:40You're the best.
09:41Okay. Sure.
09:45You're the best. And stitch two letters on it. C and S, please.
09:49C and S, Chase and Serena.
09:56Okay.
10:07Ace, I've always said yes.
10:10This is the last time.
10:15Whoa. This is perfect.
10:17Thank you, Arya.
10:19You must have spent so much time on it.
10:21Don't mention it.
10:22If you like it, that's enough.
10:28He is rushing to see her.
10:33Consider it my last gift.
10:35Before I go.
10:42Arya, we're throwing a pool party.
10:44Chase is hammered. Can you come grab him?
10:46Chase is drunk?
10:48His coach doesn't even let him near alcohol during the season.
