1 Previously, on Andi Mack Your mom thing, that's so awesome.
It is? Uh, we're gettin' away.
We could have a party! Gangway, everybody! (cheering) My friend thinks you're cute.
She wants to meet you.
I'll introduce you.
Bex! Bex! Bex! Bex! And what about Andi's new dad? We'd love to meet him, too.
Bex: I'm just not sure how many more life-altering blows she can handle.
"Your dad doesn't even know you exist.
" - He knows she exists.
- Who told him? I did.
- Dad.
- Bex.
- Dad! - Bex Dad, you you saw him, you talked to him? You said, what? What did you say? I didn't say anything.
Andi! Look! It's Andi! I was just wondering if I could have the disco ball? Sure.
Oh, you mean right now? Tell you what, honey.
We're gonna take it down, and we'll bring it up to you.
Or you could take it down right now, and I could bring it up to me.
We're gonna do this my way.
Good night, Shnoo.
How does he know about her? I post pictures of her on my Facepage.
He thinks I'm her father.
(sighs) He should know that he is.
I - This is his email.
- No.
I don't want to write him.
His daughter wants to know him.
And he should know his daughter.

I'm ready for tomorrow Tomorrow starts today There ain't a map to follow But I'm with you all the way I'm ready for tomorrow Tomorrow starts today There ain't a map to follow But I'm with you all the way All the way So, what happened after the party? Did you get in trouble with your mom? - Grandma.
- CeCe.
That's what she wants me to call her.
If she ever talks to me again.
So what? You've got Bex.
She's a cool mom.
She lets you have parties.
She makes me have parties.
Don't get me wrong, it was a great party that I said we shouldn't have, and now we're in a lot of trouble for.
It just feels like she's still my sister and I'm still the responsible one.
Guys, guys, guys.
Wanna see something amazing? Hey, Jonah! Hey, Cyrus! Did you see that? Jonah Beck sayin' hi to me? Like, wha-evah, no BD, we're friends.
- Dude, I need to talk to you.
- Why? What'd I do? I'm sorry.
- Over here.
- Okay.
- Hey! - Hey.
- Hey.
- Fun party.
Thanks.
Your girlfriend seemed nice.
(sighs) Listen.
She feels really bad.
It's okay.
I just want you to know, whatever it is that I did, I won't do it again.
(laughs) You crack me up.
Why are you so nervous all the time? Uh, probably because both my parents are shrinks.
Oh, man, that that's rough.
Who got divorced and then remarried to two other shrinks.
So I'm being raised by four mental health professionals.
Passover's fun.
There once was a boy Why is it so hard to stop liking someone when there's a zero percent chance he'll ever like you back? Because if we could, there'd never be any country and western music.
Oh, that boy with the Frisbee has made my heart numb But he'll never know it 'cause he's kinda dumb - (laughs) - Hi.
- Hi, Gus.
- What's up? I think you're in trouble.
- I am? - Uh, not you.
Why? What'd I do? I don't know.
The vice principal wants to see you.
What did you do? I don't know! - Come with me? - Sure.
Yeah.
So so dude, Iris likes you.
That's great.
Who's Iris? Amber's friend.
You met her at the party.
Oh.
Wow, that's awfully nice.
Please convey to Iris that I enjoyed meeting her as well.
Dude, I don't I don't think you're following.
They wanna hang out this weekend.
You cool with that? Yeah! Yeah, who wouldn't be cool with that? (laughs) Yes, my man! Oh.
Oh Just Ha You that was I see what you were goin' for there.
You wanna You wanna try that again? - Nah, I'm good.
- Aah, okay.
So, you're going on a double date? It's not a date.
It's a hang, according to Jonah.
What's the difference? I don't know.
I was hoping you could tell me.
How would I know? I'm not allowed to date until I graduate high school.
Of course, with Bex in charge, that rule's no longer in effect.
Well, then, that's good, right? I don't know.
It turns out, I like boundaries.
I don't wanna get out there and be bold and live life.
I just wanna stay in my room, and read a book.
- So, what was it? - What'd you do? You are not going to believe this.
I have to change my hair.
What's wrong with your hair? Ms.
Dullridge said it was too big.
Apparently, somebody claimed they failed a pop quiz because they couldn't see around my hair to read the board.
That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.
I know! That's what I told Ms.
Dullridge.
Using words that wouldn't get me suspended.
I just wish I could talk to my mom.
But she's overseas still, right? Yeah, for at least six more months.
Well, you can't change your hair.
People know us as the group with really good hair.
I've never heard anyone say that.
I just started it, spread it around.
So what are you gonna do? I don't know.
But I have to figure it out by tomorrow.
(knocking on door) Bex: Andi, you in there? Andi? Andi! She's in her room reading.
I just looked there.
You didn't look hard enough.
Hey, Shnoo.
- Heh.
- What are you doing? Playing hide-and-seek.
We've been doin' it for years.
I know all the spots.
Hey, I was looking for you to hang out.
Didn't you hear me calling you? Okay.
Yeah, I get it.
You did hear me.
That's why you're hiding, you're hiding from me.
That's silly.
You don't wanna hang out, just say, "I don't wanna hang out.
" I don't wanna hang out.
See how easy that was? No Bex.
You two havin' a problem? No.
I just miss having a mom.
And it's looking like I'll never have a dad, either.
Well, you still got me, if that's good for anything.
Do you know who my dad is? I uh - You do, don't you? - I Yes, but Who is he? Where is he? Can we call him? What's his name? You don't think I have a right to know? (crickets chirping) What are you gonna write? Nothing with you standing over my shoulder.
- I will leave you alone.
- That'd be great.
(sighs) Okay.
Come on, you can do this.
There's something still, like magic Ugh, no.
At the bottom of the garden My bio lights and spirits At the bottom of the garden Hey, so, you have a daughter I never told you about.
Lead me out Lead me out Take me in your arms Lead me out Lead me out Lead me out Still nothing? Nope.
I've texted her 40 times.
- (text bloops) - Forty-one.
Whoa.
Is that her? Where? I don't see her.
Wow.
You straightened your hair.
I see that "Wow" and I raise you a "Yowza"! I know, right? Vampires aren't the only thing this Buffy's slaying.
So, is this gonna be your hair from now on? Well, maybe.
Don't you like it? I do! I do.
I just like your curly hair better.
Well, I'm trying this.
And I think I look great.
So get on board.
(school bell ringing) Andi, don't you know anything about women? You can never tell one you don't like their hair.
- He wrote back? - Yeah.
What'd he say? I don't know.
I'm too scared to open it.
Are you kidding me? It's bad? That's it? After 13 years, "Hey"? That's outrageous.
That's unforgivable.
That's what I wrote him.
- It is? - Well, what would you say to someone right before you blew up their whole life? If you wanna tell Bowie he's a dad, have at it.
Be my guest.
Okay, I will.
Fine.
(keys clacking) Read to me what you have so far.
Bowie Hey.
Where's Buffy? Why isn't she here? I don't know.
But she always comes.
Then she's coming.
But I have to go.
Then go, you'll see her tomorrow.
But I was supposed to see her now.
Okay, relax, have a baby tater.
Focus on me.
Okay.
I bought a new pair of shoes for my double hang with Jonah tomorrow, and I need to know what to wear with them.
How would I know? I have visual aids.
Okay.
So.
Khakis.
Corduroys.
Khakis, take your time.
Corduroys.
Khakis.
Okay.
Now.
Green khakis? - Or khaki khak - Khaki khakis.
- Okay.
- I'm out.
Okay, I I'll text you my sock options.
- Do that.
- Okay.
Okay.
Try to explain How I feel I'll grab my keys And go - So we're good? - You were never not good.
I just missed you.
I'm really sorry.
I didn't realize Bex and I had been talking so long.
It felt like five minutes.
What were you talking about? I don't even remember.
Well, I remember what I was talking about.
But I'll spare you.
Thank you.
'Cause I gotta go.
What do you mean? Aren't we going to the flea market? I can't.
I have homework.
Well, then we won't stay long.
I just want some new supplies.
Andi Shack is feeling way too "been-there-beaded-that.
" You should stay as long as you want, and find a lot of great stuff.
And then, call me later, and tell me about everything you got.
(playful screaming) Cyrus? Iris? (both laugh) Well, the good news is we already have a mash-up name! Cyrus with an I! You're so clever! (both laugh) What are you two giggling about? Private joke.
I love it, you're already such a cute couple.
So, games, food, rides? What are we doin' first? I'm not fussy.
Well, I'm a little fussy.
Me too! So cute.
My dad has those shoes.
(cheering) What the? What the? No one's what they appear Check it in, check it out Everyone on the floor - It's okay.
- What the heck are you waiting for? - Come on! - Sometimes you gotta improvise To find out what you really like 'Cause what you think you know Could I try it? 'Cause everybody's got another wild side now - Who you wanna be? - Uh-huh That's right His name is Cirus, with an I.
Everybody say, "Opah!" - Who do you see? - Come on - See what? - Underneath When you look in the mirror, kind of a shock Jonah, ride with me.
We're not getting on those horses, are we, dude? I probably shouldn't.
I don't do well with up and down.
Or side to side.
Or round and round.
I need to get off.
Seriously, who do I talk to? Are you okay? Stop the ride! Please! Please, stop the ride! It's an emergency! Please! Please, I beg of you, stop the ride! (retching) Cyrus, it stopped.
He's not going to make it.
(retching) Okay.
Hello! Is anyone home? What's going on? I'll tell you later.
I wanna know now.
You couldn't spend the day with me because you were spending it with her? And when I don't wanna hang out with you, you're just gonna move on to my friends? Andi! (sighs) This is not about you.
Not everything is.
I'll give you two a chance to talk.
I didn't tell you everything that's been going on with me and my hair.
Like what? Like I gave myself a bald spot.
What? I burned my hair.
And some fell off.
Why didn't you tell me? I was embarrassed.
Now, I'm embarrassed.
That was so selfish, what I said.
You didn't know.
So, tell me now.
I flat-ironed my hair, and I overdid it.
I couldn't talk to my mom, and you weren't using yours.
But I would have been here with you! I wish I'd been here.
You wanted to go to the flea market.
You know you're more important than the flea market! Well, you better know that.
I liked having straight hair.
I like having curly hair.
I like being able to change it whenever I want, not when someone else tells me I have to.
Like Dullridge? What are you gonna do about her? It doesn't matter.
Curly hair, don't care.
Oh, it is a story that Iris's grandchildren will tell their grandchildren.
It will never die.
And the most painful part is, that's over.
He'll never speak to me again.
Hey, Cyrus! Hey, Jonah! See? So, what happened? Turns out, the people who were distracted by my hair just Jacob Szabo.
Who doesn't even sit behind me.
Jacob Szabo? That kid lies about everything.
Apparently, in another class, he said he failed a test because he was overwhelmed by dry-erase fumes.
They should've sent him home, not you.
His mom is the something-something of the school district, and she made a stink.
But now Jacob the Liar's suspended, and I got a personal apology from the principal.
And so ends another adventure of the Good Hair Crew.
We're not the Good Hair Crew.
Yes, we are.
The T-shirts have been ordered.
- (both laughing) - Oh my gosh.
Bex! Bex! (clearing throat) (laughing) Thank you for helping my friend.
- Cookie? - Mm-hm.
- Aw, I only got half an animal.
- (laughing) - I got the other half.
- (both laughing) So you have to look where you want it to go Okay.
and then use your wrist so that it's Sorry.
Oh my gosh.
At least let me finish the instruction! Andi: Next, on Andi Mack I saw Amber in the park with someone else.
You're the fastest girl.
Meaning what? There's a faster boy? - Yep.
- Who? Hi, Marty from the party, nice to meet you.
- Hey! - Amber Alert! Amber Alert! I had to show Jonah why you were lying.
Andi, I I feel really bad.
Do you really think that I lied to you? Just go.
