Austin and Ally s04e19 Episode Script

Musicals & Moving On

Are you guys reading books? Since Austin's world tour starts in a week, I'm helping him learn some foreign languages.
I can ask, "where are the pancakes?" In fifteen different languages.
French Mandarin Even pig Latin.
"Ere-whay are-ay e-thay ancakes-pay?" You guys are a couple of oof-days.
What's with the animal print pillows?Ú I'm turning the practice room into my new office.
What gives you the right? Dez, calm down.
She'll be running the music factory while I'm at school and Austin's on tour.
What do you care anyway? You'll be finishing film school and hanging out with Carrie way on the other side of the country.
Oh, I can't wait.
Aw, I'm going to miss you too.
I'm going to miss all you guys.
Well, no matter where life takes us, we'll always have this place to bring us together.
And luckily, we'll have Trish to take really good care of it.
And I promise to make the school my top priority.
Trish, it's so great that you're taking this so seriously.
Nothing means more to me than than the A&A music oh, my hot tub! What? It's for my new office.
It'll fit.
I just got to get rid of the piano And all that music junk.
I was thinking.
Since we won't be together for a lot of the holidays this year, we should celebrate all of them this week before we leave town.
Great idea.
We can do our anniversary, Christmas, Valentine's day.
There's only one problem.
I'm actually leaving for my tour in a hour.
What? April fools! Cross that one off the list.
I got her the audition.
The play is directed by my mentor and hero, Spike Stevens.
He's also starring in it.
But I thought he only did movies, like the one I starred in.
You know? The pilot and the mermaid.
Based on the book, the mermaid and the pilot.
Oh.
You ignorant fools.
If you knew anything about Spike, you'd know his first love is musical theater.
And now, he's come home.
This could be huge! I read about it online.
Well, if I get the part, I'd have to do a little juggling between running the factory and doing the play.
But who am I kidding? It's a long shot.
A very long shot.
But I know what Spike demands of his actors.
I can help you.
Watch And repeat.
Happy.
Sad.
Happy.
Sad.
Come on, you're not doing it.
Happy.
Sad.
Happy.
Sad.
Ooh, mad! Nice.
Happy easter-versary.
Oh.
I bought you an anniversary present.
It's hidden inside an easter egg somewhere in the restaurant.
Aw, thanks.
I'll hunt for it after we order.
I can't believe we only have a week left.
I'm really gonna miss you.
But we'll still talk all the time and write songs together over the phone.
Actually, I don't know how much time I'll have for songwriting.
I've been doing a lot of thinking, and I've decided to put music on hold for awhile.
Seriously? You're not gonna make music? Well, Harvard's gonna keep me really busy.
It's very competitive.
I'll be taking a lot of hard classes with a lot of super smart people.
Wow.
You're gonna be meeting all kinds of smart Harvard people, doing all kinds of smart Harvard stuff, eating smart Harvard food.
Well, I'm not sure food can really be smart.
Sure it can.
I just saw this thing on TV about celery that can sing babies to sleep.
Are you talking about that diaper commercial with the singing celery? Oh, maybe.
You're so cute.
Happy easter-best-friend-aversary! Trish told me we're celebrating a year's worth of holidays, so Here I am.
Uh, no.
We're celebrating.
That's what I said "we're celebrating.
" And Austin, I found the gift you hid for me.
How did you know my favorite letter was "a"? Spike, thank you so much for this audition.
Don't thank me, impress me.
Rooftop scene, go! What happened to us, jazzy McGee? We used to be best friends.
You were the mustard to my hot dog.
Well, trixie, that was before you left me in the dust when you hit it big.
Your record may be gold, but your heart sure ain't.
I cross over here.
I turn, and then you say I learned it from you.
You destroyed what was most precious to me.
And now, I'm gonna do the same to you.
Now we fight over my saxophones.
Struggle, struggle, struggle! I fall backwards and hang from the ledge while you sing.
That Was I know, Spike, she did nothing.
I brilliant! I taught her everything she knows.
Trish, I have chosen you to be the star of my production of the singer and the sax player! Based on the novel, the sax player and the singer.
I can't believe it.
Really? Jennifer Lawrence wanted it.
But you know what? She can't hold a candle to you.
In fact, according to her people, she refuses to hold a candle at all, so it never would have worked out.
Because of the big candle holding scene in act two.
Pack your bags, we're taking this show on the road! On the road? I thought we were performing in Miami.
We open in Miami, and then we're performing all around the country.
Oh, no.
I'm sorry, Spike, but I already made a commitment to stay here and run the music factory.
I can't let my friends down.
Nonsense! Stick with me, and your name will be in lights on Broadway.
Can you see the sign? "The singer and the sax player.
"Based on the novel the sax player and the singer.
"Starring Trish" Whatever your last name is.
It's beautiful.
"Starring Trish beautiful.
" I see a sign too.
It's in front of the music factory.
It says, "closed forever.
" Oh, there's another sign.
It says, "going out of business sale.
"Trumpets, 70% off.
" Oh, it's actually a pretty good deal.
What a beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky.
The perfect battle stations, giant baby duck attacking on the port side.
Quack, quack.
Ah! Oh, the humanity! Dez! What are you doing in my hot tub? Uh not peeing.
That's for sure.
Anyway, since you're gonna be off doing the play, this is no longer your office, or your hot tub.
Don't get too comfortable.
I haven't decided if I'm taking the part.
Well, you've just got to ask yourself, do you want to be the captain that keeps the factory afloat? Or do you want to be the duck that flaps its wings and flies off to Broadway? I think I want to be a duck.
But that means having to close down the factory.
Well, you need to do what makes you happiest, like me.
The store clerk said I could never pull off horizontal stripes, That's not the word I would use.
All I'm saying is we'll support you no matter what you decide.
Thanks, Dez.
I know we have our differences, but when I really need a friend, you've always been there for me.
Aw.
I'll miss you too, Trish.
Oh, Dez! You're getting my clothes all wet! Shh! Don't ruin this.
Oh.
Happy new year! And also, happy Thanksgiving.
I put a top hat and tails on the turkey.
Huh.
Did you know the first new year's celebration was held 4,000 years ago by the baby-lonians.
Uh, I think you mean "babylonians.
" I know what I mean.
I'm a smart guy who says smart things like "indubitably," "post-modernism," and "Mozambique.
" There's a lot more to me than performing and perfect hair.
I know.
Come on, let's just enjoy new years.
It's almost fake midnight.
Pfft, you're right.
Sorry.
Five, four, three, two One.
Happy new year! Ooh! Let's share our new years resolutions.
All right.
This year, I want some more alone time with my boyfriend.
Ugh, boring.
Guys, I'm sorry to interrupt, but I have some really important news that can't wait.
After thinking long and hard I've come to a decision.
Austin, Ally, I Ugh, what Trish is taking forever to say is that she's gonna go on tour with Spike's musical, so we're gonna have to shut the music factory down.
- W - Happy New Year! Sad new year.
Happy new year! Sad new year.
Happy new year! Sad new year.
Happy new year! Guys, I'm really sorry about this, but I can't pass up this opportunity.
I love being onstage, and Spike says this could lead to a career on Broadway.
Trish, if acting is your passion, you have our full support.
Although you did kind of promise you'd stay here and run the factory.
Well, I don't see you canceling your tour to stay here and run it.
This stinks.
Without the factory, we'll probably never talk to each other again.
What? Why would you say that? Let's face it, you're going on tour.
You'll probably replace me with a new offbeat, redheaded best friend.
What about you? You'll go to L.
A.
and replace me with another pop star best friend like Justin Bieber, or Justin Timberlake, or some other Justin.
Come on, you guys are being silly.
Are we? What about you, quacking off to Broadway.
You'll find a whole new flock and forget all about us.
You're the one who told me to be a duck and follow my dream.
Oh, that was this morning! Wait, does this mean you're gonna be too busy to manage me? What are you even talking about? Everyone calm down, this is ridiculous.
Oh, so I'm ridiculous now.
No one ever said you were ridiculous.
Ally, just because you're going to Harvard doesn't mean you're qualified to tell people when they're not ridiculous.
Yeah, if we wanna be ridiculous, we don't need your permission.
You know, ever since you got into Harvard, you can't stop talking about how excited you are to hang out with smart people, like we aren't good enough for you anymore.
What? I never said that! You didn't have to, it's in your tone.
Yeah, you're going to smarty-pants school with smarty-pants people, it's just a matter of time before you find a new boyfriend with really smart pants on.
Wait, is this what the baby-lonians thing was about? Isn't it "babylonians"? If I want to pronounce it "baby-lonians," then that's how I'm going to say it! Baby-lonians, baby-lonians, baby-lonians! You know what, if you're all gonna act like this, maybe it's best we're going our separate ways.
Yeah! Dez, separate ways.
Right! I hope this place officiated enough for you.
I know you Harvard types love your theater.
Well, at least I know theater wasn't invented by the baby-lonians.
Will you two keep it down? I'm trying to watch the play.
It hasn't even started yet.
You're staring at a curtain.
Nothing I do is good enough for you.
What happened to us, jazzy McGee? We used to be best friends.
You were the mustard to my hot dog.
Well, trixie, that was before you left me in the dust when you hit it big.
Your record may be gold, but your heart sure ain't.
I learned it from you.
You destroyed what was most precious to me, and now I'm gonna do the same to you.
Give me that saxophone! Never! Ah! Go ahead, take your revenge.
We lived as friends, but we'll part as enemies.
Maybe we can work this out.
We can still be friends.
Uh no.
Nope.
Pretty sure it's time for you to take your revenge! We've been too close too long to allow one little tiff to come between us.
Stick to the script! Well, I forgive you anyway, because that's what friends are supposed to do.
Friends are supposed to be there for each other, no matter what.
Just sing the revenge song! Actually, I have something else in mind.
We're sorry, Trish.
Let's never fight again.
Can we group hug now? Really hate to break this up, but could we please do our closing number? I'm so glad that we're not fighting anymore.
That was so silly.
Well, clearly the fight was a manifestation of our fears of losing each other.
What Dez means is our fight was merely the byproduct of our sadness and heartache rather than any true animosity.
Look who's wearing the smarty-pants now.
Mozambique.
Ally, I'm sorry for acting so jealous.
I was just missing you already.
I feel the same way.
And you don't have to worry about me falling for some brainy Harvard guy.
I love you for you and I always will.
I love you too.
And Trish I'm good.
I also have a going away present for you.
Actually, it's a going away/birthday/ groundhog day present.
Your songbook? You're letting me touch it? I'm letting you have it.
It's full of memories.
And I wrote some new songs for you to use while I'm at school.
Ooh, can I see it? Don't touch my book! Ah, there's my star! Now, Trish, are you ready to take this show on the road? Actually, Spike, I'm not.
I've decided I want to stay in Miami.
Uh You can't do that.
What about following your dream? Yeah, I thought you loved the theater.
I do.
And that's why I want to stay and open up a musical theater program for kids here at the factory.
I'm afraid you leave me no choice.
Fine.
Spike, I'll be your gorgeous jazz lady.
- No.
- Aw.
Trish, I, Spike Stevens, refuse to do the show without you.
Therefore, the singer and the sax player will remain in Miami! Really? Oh, thank you! I can't believe it.
We get to keep the factory, I still get to star in the play.
And best of all, hot tub.
Whoo! Hot tub.
Cannon ball! Whoo-hoo! Whoo! You guys look hilarious.
Let me get a picture.
Aw.
- Ally! - Austin! It is so good to see you.
- I missed you so much.
- Me too.
I can't believe it's been four months.
How was school? Hard, but amazing.
How's the tour? It's been fun but also really lonely.
And it kind of got me thinking About us.
I didn't know it at the time, but the day I walked into the music store, was the greatest day of my life.
Because it's the day I met you.
There's so much about the future I don't know, but the one thing I'm sure of is there's no way I can make it without you.
So Ally Willow Dawson, will you make me the happiest man alive and Marry me? Austin.
I can't.
