00:29:53Well, at least I tried to write it.

00:29:56Well, see ya.

00:30:15It's not terrible.

00:30:18You know, that's the nicest thing you've ever said about me.

00:30:24Wait, you actually read her favorite book?

00:30:26Yeah, I did.

00:30:27Yeah, very romantic, very gushy, a lot of stargazing, and just a lot of feelings in general.

00:30:37Yeah, that's called literature, Brad.

00:30:41Well, I see why she likes it.

00:30:46You really like this girl, huh?

00:30:48You know, everybody says that they don't care what other people think about them, and it's not true.

00:30:54You know, but Chloe really just, she does her own thing.

00:30:59You know, she's focused on something other than herself, and I don't know.

00:31:03Well, I think that's really cool.

00:31:08That one's perfect for you.

00:31:13Isn't this a movie with Leonardo DiCaprio?

00:31:16Yeah, yeah, that's the one.

00:31:18Well, why do you think this is perfect for me?

00:31:24Because you're always chasing your green light.

00:31:30Hey.

00:31:31Hey, you are.

00:31:33I'm looking for you.

00:31:35Well, that's my cue.

00:31:53Hey.

00:31:58I've been thinking about you.

00:32:00Really?

00:32:02Must be hard with Samantha's tongue so far down your throat.

00:32:05What?

00:32:07Hey, babe, look at me.

00:32:09Hey, I promise.

00:32:11Look, you are the only person that matters to me.

00:32:15Okay.

00:32:16Why?

00:32:18Why what?

00:32:20Why do I matter?

00:32:22What are you into?

00:32:24I'm into you, of course.

00:32:28Okay, but why do you like me?

00:32:33You're really pretty.

00:32:35And, like, you weren't always this pretty.

00:32:39Like, I'll be honest with you.

00:32:41I didn't even realize we were in the same class for a while.

00:32:46Hey, but now, you were, like, really hot.

00:32:51Yeah.

00:32:59Okay, wait.

00:33:02You're beautiful.

00:33:03Oh, you already said that.

00:33:14You know, everybody says that they don't care what other people think about them, and it's not true.

00:33:21You know, Chloe really just, she does her own thing.

00:33:25I think that's really cool.

00:33:29I wish you saw me the way you see her, Brad.

00:33:32Oh, my God.

00:56:37I don't care about any of that.

00:56:39Then what do you want?

00:56:40I want the truth.

00:56:41Why is Brad always with you?

00:56:47I need to tell him about Samantha.

00:56:52Hey.

00:56:53Hey.

00:56:53You look beautiful.

00:56:57How was your class?

00:56:59Ready for practice tonight?

00:57:01Yeah.

00:57:01Hey, Mia.

00:57:03Mia.

00:57:05Hey, I've been looking everywhere for you.

00:57:07I am Chloe.

00:57:09This is Mia, my good friend.

00:57:12And Mia, this is Chloe, my girlfriend.

00:57:17Hi.

00:57:18Brad talks about you all the time.

00:57:20Yeah, same.

00:57:24I actually had something to tell you.

00:57:26Yeah, what's up?

00:57:29I...

00:57:31I broke up with Dan.

00:57:33Oh, really?

00:57:35Well, that's great.

00:57:35He's a total moron.

00:57:38Yeah, I'm sure you deserve much better.

00:57:40Yeah.

00:57:41Well, I'll see you guys around.

00:57:43Hey, Mia, why don't you come to the gateway?

00:57:46Yeah.

00:57:47I'll sit with you if you want.

00:57:48Yeah, it'll be great.

00:57:49Yeah, maybe.

00:57:51See you guys around.

00:57:52Okay, I'll see you there.

00:58:14Hell of a love story, isn't it?

00:58:17Shame, it's all a lie.

00:58:19I figured out why you were writing those letters.

00:58:22Shut up.

00:58:23Here's the deal.

00:58:24You tell Chloe the truth,

00:58:26that you're the one writing all those sweet little letters,

00:58:29or I do.

00:58:30And if I do,

00:58:31the prince will get your whole file.

00:58:37Now.

00:58:54Go on.

00:58:55Okay.

00:59:01Sorry.

00:59:02Excuse me.

00:59:02Just coming through.

00:59:03Sorry.

00:59:08Hey, Chloe.

00:59:09Oh my God, hi.

00:59:10I'm so glad you're here.

00:59:11Yeah.

00:59:12It's a good game.

00:59:14I need to tell you something.

00:59:15I need to tell you something.

00:59:17Oh my gosh.

00:59:18Ron, are you okay?

00:59:23I'm okay.

00:59:25Are you okay?

00:59:25I'm okay.

00:59:26I'm okay.

00:59:28I'll be back.

00:59:29Good luck.

00:59:29I got this.

00:59:35Um, what were you going to say, Mia?

00:59:39Um, I need to tell you.

00:59:41Um, I've been.

00:59:43Go on.

00:59:44Tell her.

00:59:51I, oh, I knew you'd chicken out.

00:59:54But I didn't write those letters.

00:59:57What?

00:59:57Our little ghostwriters here did.

01:00:00Every word.

01:00:01They were just messing with you.

01:00:03Both of us.

01:00:04Chloe, it's not like that.

01:00:06At all.

01:00:07So, everything was a lie?

01:00:09It wasn't a lie.

01:00:11At all.

01:00:12I, oh, Chloe.

01:00:15Wait, I, no.

01:00:22Where are you going, man?

01:00:23What?

01:00:28I'm fucking believable.

01:00:31All this work.

01:00:33Captain Love's story.

01:00:35Did you sit in?

01:00:37Got some stupid girl.

01:00:41God.

01:00:43They've been fucking desperate.

01:00:45A new chick found out.

01:00:50No, actually, I heard she's been screwing Professor Luke for her grades.

01:00:56Probably half the faculty.

01:00:58It's a shame that, uh, a pathetic whore cost us the game.

01:01:04What the hell did you just say?

01:01:07Relax, man.

01:01:11If you're into leftovers, that's your call.

01:01:27What the hell is your problem?

01:01:29Don't you ever talk about her like that again.

01:01:32What the hell is your problem?

01:02:00Oh, my God.

01:02:02Oh, my God.

01:02:05Get up.

01:02:07Sorry about your boy toy, princess.

01:02:10Hey, hey.

01:02:12Hey, boy.

01:02:13Hey.

01:02:15Sorry, Brad.

01:02:19Let's go.

01:02:20Come on.

01:02:21Oh, my God.

01:02:22Brad.

01:02:23Brad.

01:02:24Oh.

01:02:25Hey.

01:02:26It's okay.

01:02:27It's okay.

01:02:28No.

01:02:29It's okay.

01:02:31Okay.

01:02:38It's going to be quick.

01:02:40Don't trip.

01:02:40It's okay.

01:02:41Hurry.

01:02:45Okay.

01:02:46Okay.

01:02:52It's just driving.

01:02:56Okay.

01:02:58You're going to make it Brad, okay?

01:02:59Stay with me.

01:03:01Okay.

01:03:12I'm so sorry this happened.

01:03:15It's all my fault.

01:03:19I wish you would have never asked me for help.

01:03:24I wish I would have just stayed invisible to you.

01:03:29None of this would have ever happened.

01:03:37I would have never fallen for you.

01:03:54Oh.

01:03:56It's you.

01:03:57Chloe.

01:03:58Hear me out, please.

01:04:06what do you want me for you to know the truth yeah brad lied okay but he didn't mean to

01:04:13hurt

01:04:13you it's not up to the liar to decide whether the lie hurts or not i know i know he

01:04:20he just

01:04:21fell for you so hard he didn't even know how to act like himself i mean look at everything he's

01:04:26done to make you happy has anyone in the school ever done anything like that for anyone

01:04:44you think he really cares about me

01:04:48i know he does and i know you do too i only came because i got scared when i found

01:06:05so

01:06:40Yeah? Where are you going?

01:06:49She's currently the professor Luke. That's why she gets straight A's. Some people are just desperate.

01:07:14What do you want? I did what you asked. Except you didn't. And now it's time to pay the price.

01:07:23No, I told her the truth.

01:07:25You chickened out. And now Brad's still with her. Not me.

01:07:29It's not my fault that he hates you.

01:07:31Please. If it weren't for your little love letters, he wouldn't even know she exists.

01:07:36You're seriously blaming this on me because he doesn't want to be with you?

01:07:41You need help.

01:07:45Give it back.

01:07:46Excuse me.

01:07:47What are you doing?

01:07:49You know, all this from homework?

01:07:51What are you doing? Give me my phone.

01:07:53Oh, just call it interest for fucking up, my love.

01:08:07You're going to regret that.

01:08:10Help! Help!

01:08:12Please, she's attacking me.

01:08:15May it works. Please respond to the principles of this immediately.

01:08:23Any other student will be expelled for this.

01:08:26But give me your academic record to reach suspension.

01:08:31Effective immediately.

01:08:32What? Principal Matthews, you can't do this.

01:08:35I need to be at school. I have nothing else.

01:08:37She stole my money.

01:08:39What money? Where would someone like her even get money?

01:08:42That's all, Mia. You can go.

01:08:43No.

01:08:47I said you can go.

01:08:48Sorry.

01:08:51She's...

01:08:51I said you can go.

01:08:57Samantha.

01:08:59Samantha.

01:09:01Please.

01:09:02I need that money for my mom's surgery.

01:09:04Not my problem.

01:09:05Can you just take what's not yours?

01:09:08Isn't that exactly what you did with Brad?

01:09:14At this rate, it'll take me a decade to earn the money back.

01:09:19Oh my goodness.

01:09:22Death rats slinging wieners and beef.

01:09:26That's a pretty bad point.

01:09:27Leave me alone.

01:09:28Why?

01:09:30You got any footlongs here or is that pro bono just for the faculty?

01:09:35Get out of here.

01:09:36What are you doing?

01:09:42You know, this is your penis.

01:09:44Hey.

01:09:45It's all downhill from here.

01:09:47It's gone.

01:09:48Oh my God.

01:09:49What the hell is going on?

01:09:51It wasn't me.

01:09:52I swear.

01:09:52This comes out of your paycheck.

01:09:54What?

01:09:55I...

01:09:57I'm so sorry.

01:10:02I'm...

01:10:12You're lucky she got you to the hospital in time.

01:10:16Who?

01:10:17Mia.

01:10:19She drove you.

01:10:20No.

01:10:21No, Mia can't drive.

01:10:24She did that right.

01:10:27You are my everything.

01:10:31Jackson, you looks like you were about to meet Jesus back there.

01:10:35This part's my favorite.

01:10:36The way they realized they loved each other all along.

01:10:40Right.

01:10:41After three conversations and a kiss in the rain.

01:10:44Very realistic.

01:10:47It's romantic.

01:10:53You don't have to watch with me.

01:10:56No, I want to.

01:10:58I want to.

01:10:59I'm sorry.

01:11:01I'm sorry.

01:11:02Okay.

01:11:24Hi, Dad.

01:11:32I wish you were here.

01:11:36Did you know how to fix this?

01:11:41Mom's really sick.

01:11:44She's really sick.

01:11:47And I can't save her.

01:11:51And I've tried so hard.

01:12:03Why did you leave?

01:12:07Oh, my God.

01:12:08Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

01:12:10I got you.

01:12:12You okay?

01:12:14Hey, hey.

01:12:16It's okay.

01:12:20I'm so sorry.

01:12:31It's all over.

01:12:33All the money is gone.

01:12:38Even if I worked every second, it wouldn't be enough.

01:12:43You know, when I came out here and I saw you, I got so scared.

01:12:53It's a man that took everything.

01:12:55I know.

01:12:55Every cent.

01:12:57And she knows who I am.

01:12:59She knows about me.

01:13:01And I'm paper hearts.

01:13:03Well, then we will do everything that we can to make sure that she gives it back.

01:13:07How?

01:13:09How?

01:13:09She has all the cards in her hands.

01:13:11If she exposes me, I'm done.

01:13:13No school.

01:13:14No future.

01:13:15Nothing.

01:13:17You know what?

01:13:24Let's turn the tables.

01:13:29Keith, let's go.

01:13:40You called for me, Principal Matthews?

01:13:46Yes, come in.

01:13:47Have a seat, please.

01:13:54Hi, Samantha.

01:13:57So, Principal Matthews.

01:13:59Mia did not lie about everything.

01:14:01Samantha was the one that stole everything.

01:14:03Everything from the car wash.

01:14:04Everything that Mia worked so hard to get.

01:14:07Even if that were true, which it's not, how would a charity case like her have thousands just lying around?

01:14:14Here's your proof.

01:14:17Every single cent went right into Samantha's bank account.

01:14:20Mr. Matthews, they're just trying to blackmail me because I know the truth about Mia.

01:14:24You know what, Samantha?

01:14:24This is exactly why I broke up with you.

01:14:27Because you lie.

01:14:28You lie and you manipulate and you don't care who gets hurt along the way as long as you get

01:14:33what you want, right?

01:14:34You want to play a back game?

01:14:36Fine.

01:14:36You want to talk about liars?

01:14:38Here's your perfect straight A student running a whole cheating empire under your nose.

01:14:43Paper hearts.

01:14:44That's her.

01:14:46And when I found out, they threatened me.

01:14:49And she attacked me.

01:14:51She told me that if I told anyone, she would kill me.

01:14:54So, I just couldn't hide it anymore.

01:14:57Is this true?

01:15:00This is ridiculous.

01:15:03No, it's not.

01:15:04Because I run paper hearts.

01:15:07I always have.

01:15:08And Mia has never had anything to do with it.

01:15:11Do you fully understand the consequences of your confession, Brad?

01:15:16Yes, I do.

01:15:18So, you expect me to believe a student like you, who's barely turned in a completed essay his entire high

01:15:26school career?

01:15:27Well, that was exactly the point.

01:15:29No one would ever suspect it was me.

01:15:31You didn't.

01:15:33But yes, I ran paper hearts.

01:15:35I hired people to write the essays.

01:15:37I ran the app.

01:15:39I handled all the finances.

01:15:40And I made sure that it would never get traced back to me.

01:15:44Mia is a great, very hardworking student.

01:15:47And she would never do anything like this.

01:15:50She had nothing to do with it.

01:15:51I promise.

01:15:52Well, where did Mia get the money?

01:15:54Frankly, sir, I have no idea.

01:15:56But honestly, however much money is in Mia's bank account is really, well, none of our business.

01:16:02Brad, you expelled.

01:16:05Effective immediately.

01:16:07Samantha, so are you.

01:16:09What?

01:16:10Now, I'm willing to keep this quiet and not involve the police.

01:16:14But if you want to press your luck, theft of this amount will put you behind bars for five years.

01:16:21Now, maybe your daddy's attorneys and lawyers can shave it down one or two years.

01:16:27It's your choice.

01:16:35Thanks, sir.

01:16:37Thank you, sir.

01:16:53Well, well, well, looks like Deserat is out of job.

01:16:59You know, maybe you should look at the corner.

01:17:04And by the way, word of advice, I heard it pays better if you don't use protection.

01:17:09Oh, that's for every piece of shit thing you've ever said to me.

01:17:15Oh, God.

01:17:18Remind me the next place you want.

01:17:20You already do.

01:17:22Thanks.

01:17:22Yeah.

01:17:23Well, let's go to the hospital.

01:17:25Yeah.

01:17:26Oh.

01:17:27Oh.

01:17:31We have the money.

01:17:32Please, where's my mom?

01:17:35You're two hours late.

01:17:36We couldn't wait any longer.

01:17:38We had to move on to the next patient.

01:17:43Well, doctor, can you move her back into the room?

01:17:46That's not how this works.

01:17:48Well, it is tonight.

01:17:49Hey, Brad.

01:17:49Hey, it's okay.

01:17:51Listen, doctor.

01:17:52Grab every single doctor, every single nurse, every person that you need to make this operation happen

01:17:56so we can save this beautiful woman's life tonight.

01:18:04A late year.

01:18:10Hey.

01:18:11Hey.

01:18:12We're too late.

01:18:13We're not too late.

01:18:14It's going to be okay.

01:18:16I promise.

01:18:30They're thinking so loud.

01:18:32I can hear it.

01:18:36You're just glad you're okay, Mom?

01:18:40That's not all.

01:18:52Mom, how did you know you were in love with Dad?

01:18:55We were at this terrible karaoke bar.

01:18:59Oh, thanks.

01:19:01Neither one of us could sing to save our lives.

01:19:05But he got up anyway.

01:19:07Sang horribly.

01:19:10Just to make me laugh.

01:19:15Everyone was staring.

01:19:18But all I could see was him.

01:19:23That's it?

01:19:27Love isn't some big moment, sweetie.

01:19:30It's the little ones.

01:19:33That make you feel seen.

01:19:36Safe.

01:19:37You don't have to be anybody but yourself.

01:19:41Yeah.

01:19:45Mom, I think I'm going to mess everything up.

01:19:50Good thing you're the best fixer I know.

01:20:04Why did you do all of this for Mia?

01:20:07I don't know.

01:20:07Because she's my friend.

01:20:10I think you do know.

01:20:27We're too different.

01:20:31But you and her,

01:20:34you always made sense.

01:20:41Write your own words this time.

01:21:04Write your own words this time.

01:21:44not to write this moment for myself i want to talk about love love isn't some perfect story

01:21:55with a guaranteed happy ending it's confusing terrifying it makes you mess up over and over

01:22:06and over again because suddenly

01:22:12someone else's happiness matters more than your own and sometimes the scariest part isn't even

01:22:18falling for someone it's letting them see you all of you and trusting that they won't walk away
