That's So Raven (2003) s03e16 Episode Script

On Top of Old Oaky

1 Man, you guys, I can't believe they're gonna cut down my favorite tree.
Did you hear they're gonna get rid of old oakey.
The school nurse? Man! Well, her eyesight was going.
Last week, she gave my backpack a flu shot.
Rae! It's not the nurse, ok? Old oakey is right outside our window.
Hello.
Chelsea, girl, I cannot see anything.
That big ugly tree is all in the way.
What you talking about? Old oakey is the tree Outside.
Ok! I really hate to say this, but sometimes you guys are just a little bit slow.
I can't even believe you guys.
Old oakey's been here for, like, hundreds of years, ok? He's provided shade and beauty.
Ok? And without trees, we destroy our entire ecosystem.
Yes! Thank you.
Who are you? I'm Jake.
I just transferred in from Jefferson.
I'm Chelsea.
Hi.
At least somebody gets it.
Sorry I'm late, class.
My potbellied pig was having babies.
It turns out Ramon is Ramona.
Siéntanse.
That means sit down.
Third year Spanish.
Hey, Chels, why don't you sit next to Jake? I can't, ra.
This is Eddie's seat.
You need to see-an-tan-tan-tay right here next to Jake.
Yep, that's me.
Hey, girls.
How was school? I got a "B" on my Spanish quiz, and guess what Chelsea got? A boyfriend.
No.
Don't listen to her.
Jake and Chelsea tryin' to save a tree k-i I-n-g Who's Jake? He's this boy.
This really cute boy.
Well, he's kinda cute.
I mean, kinda.
Sorta.
In a really cute sort of way.
Actually, Jake's gonna help us save old oakey.
Mom, and for your information, that's a tree.
Not the nurse.
I just don't really know how I'm gonna get people to actually care.
Well You could have kids sign a petition.
That is such a good idea, Mrs.
Baxter.
Rae, we should start tomorrow.
Yeah.
I'd love to.
But, see, there's a monster sale at the shoe shack tomorrow.
Ok.
What's more important, Rae, shoes or trees? See, I know the answer that you want me to say.
However, it's the shoes.
Monster sale.
Fine.
I bet Jake will help me.
I bet he will.
What is that sorry sound? That's Cory's band.
They're practicing for the benefit at the Chill Grill for the music program.
Well, let me be the first to contribute.
I will give you $5.
00 to shut up! Yeah! That was great, guys.
I don't want to toot my own horn, but Guys, we rock! We need a singer.
A singer.
Yeah! Then we'd rock hard with a singer! We could hold auditions.
But it's got to be a girl.
A cute girl.
A girl! Yeah! Then we'd rock hard with a singer who's cute.
A girl? Girls make my mouth dry.
C- come on.
Easy, William.
I'll handle the ladies, and you handle the music.
Now, let's jam.
All right.
A- one, a-two, a- one, 2, 3, 4.
Save old oakey! Free the tree! Yeah! Yeah! A friend in need is a friend who used to be a seed.
Thank you so much for signing.
And remember, there were no trees harmed in the making of this petition.
Chels.
Hey, this is really starting to fill up, although I think you could use a few more right over here.
That's my tickle spot.
I mean If there were more people like you, this planet would be a better place.
Really? Yeah.
Well, how do you feel about animals? I love 'em.
Me, too.
I'm a vegetarian.
Me, too.
Get out! That is so cool.
Wait.
So, you would never eat an animal? Don't speak of meat.
I'll be right there.
So, what are you guys looking at? You know.
Ok, ok.
Jake's perfect, you guys.
I mean, he's funny, he's sensitive, I mean, he cares about the environment, and most importantly, he's a vegetarian just like me.
Well, girl, if he's so great, why are you talking to us? Get over there.
It's so nice to see Chelsea so happy.
Jake seems like the perfect guy for her.
These are the best ribs in town.
Rae, what did you see? It was ugly.
Jake Wait, wait, wait.
What're you talking about? Jake's no vegetarian.
He was grubbin' on a rack of ribs.
There was meat flying everywhere.
So, you mean Jake lied to Chelsea? Let's just say she's lucky her neck is not smothered in barbecue sauce.
We got to tell her that Jake is a fake, right? We can't do that.
She's crazy about this guy.
Well, we're gonna need proof if she's gonna believe us, ok? Did you see which restaurant he was in? No, but he did say, "these are the best ribs in town.
" Well, we gotta catch him in the act.
I don't even know if it was tonight.
Well, we'll go every night, then.
Do you know how many rib joints there are in San Francisco? 47, so let's bib up, because we gonna check all of them.
For Chelsea.
Right.
Everybody knows that when push comes to shove nothin' feels better than feelin' the love Ok.
The truth is, I wasn't even feelin' it, dog.
Who's next? Tonya Baxter.
What? Ton Mom, mom, mom, what're you doing? I'm auditioning for your band.
Now, I just want to do my part to help the music program.
Besides, I think it would be fun to have a band with your mom.
Yeah, it would.
So, why don't you start one With grandma? Ok.
Fine.
All right.
You'll be back.
And grandma rocks harder than all of you.
Francesca, you're next.
Can you sing feelin' the love? Sure.
Good.
Because it's the only song we know.
Can you feel it? Can you feel the love? Nothin' feels better than feelin' the love everybody knows that when push comes to shove nothin' feels better than feelin' the love Next! What? Man, you weren't feelin' it.
I can't feel anything.
My head's numb.
Guys, she is exactly what we're looking for.
Trust me.
I know music.
And that wasn't it.
Seriously, guys, I can't feel my head.
What's the name of this band? Cory and the boys.
Exactly, boys.
Let Cory take care of this.
Ok? Congratulations, Francesca.
You're in the band.
What? Man, we hit every rib joint in this town, and there was no sign of Jake.
Maybe you ate him.
Now, look here, Rae, we cannot just walk into a rib place and not order a slab, ok? It could blow our cover.
Bottom line is that we still don't have any evidence that Jake lied to Chelsea.
What up, guys? What up, Jake? What's up wit' it, Jake? Jake! What is he doing here? Wait.
Your father does not serve ribs, and I would know that.
He does tonight! Eddie, he does tonight.
Where was he sitting? Where was he? Over there.
All right.
Over there.
Dad, dad, the guy who was eating those ribs Is he the one that just left? I'm sorry.
I can't reveal that.
Customer/chef confidentiality.
Dad, we're blood, ok? Tell me.
Look, I got a reputation.
I don't want to lose my street cred.
Hi, you guys.
I turned in my petition, and they shot me down.
They're still going to cut down old oakey.
What? But your shirt was covered with signatures.
Yeah.
I knew I should've filled in that tickle spot.
I'm sorry, Chelsea.
You know what? Jake's gonna be so crushed.
Yeah, speaking of Jake Do you know where he was tonight? Yeah.
He was at the health food store picking up food for his family.
Actually, I bet he's having a tofu burger right now.
Or sucking some pork out of his teeth.
What? Listen, Chels, we don't want you to get mad, but I had a vision that he was eating ribs.
No, that's ridiculous, Rae, Jake's a vegetarian.
Chels, he just walked out, and look what the special is.
He was covered in barbecue sauce, and there was a big pile of ribs on his plate, girl.
Well, did you actually see him eating the meat, Rae? No, but in my vision Your vision? Rae, sometimes your visions don't always come true.
I mean, I really like this guy, and you want me to break up with him just because you kinda, sorta see into the future.
Hey, wait a second, Chels.
Ok.
What I saw was your boyfriend sorta, kinda grubbin' on a baby back rib, that's what I saw.
Yeah, yeah.
And I don't know too many vegetables with bones.
Ok, now you guys are really starting to make me mad.
You cannot get mad at us, girl.
He's the one who's a phoney.
Yeah, and if he's lying about this, what else could he be lying about, Chels? I can't believe you don't trust us.
Why should I trust you, Rae? Why? You don't care about old oakey, ok? You don't care about my boyfriend, and you know, I don't even think you care about me.
Raven, Edmond It is Edward.
Whoever.
You should be happy I said your name at all.
Chels, we are just trying to help you, I mean, if Jake's a liar, you could end up getting hurt.
What are you doing? I'm moving into another locker.
Where are you moving to? I'm moving into Jake's locker until I can find a place of my own.
I can't believe you're lockering up with some guy that you just met.
Well, unlike you two, he's 100% committed to me and old oakey.
Good-bye, Raven.
Good-bye, Edgar.
It is Edmund! Edward.
Whoever! Can you feel it? Can you feel the love? Nothin' feels better than feelin' the love everybody knows that when push comes to shove nothin' feels better than feelin' the love Bye-bye, Cory.
Bye-bye, Francesca.
Bravo! Bra-vo! Great.
I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Ok.
Man! Just when you think she can't get any better.
Cory We want you to hear something.
What is this? It sounded like 2 cats fighting over fish guts.
It's Francesca.
We just recorded it.
No way.
She sings like an angel.
She looks like an angel.
She sings like a buzz saw.
Cory, don't you see what's happening? You're blinded by love.
Technically, he's deafened by love.
I'm sorry you're not feeling well, Jacob.
It's not contagious, is it? No.
I think it was just something I ate.
Good.
Adios.
You think he's really sick? This wouldn't be the first time he lied.
Ok, class Qué hora es? Anyone? I know, I know! I hear a voice, but I see no hands.
Out here! The answer is son las dos.
Chels, what are you doing up there? Well, not that you care, but this is my protest, Rae, ok? Jake and I are going to stay up in this tree until they promise not to cut down old oakey.
Jake? Chels, Jake is on his way to the nurse.
Yeah, Rae, that's all part of the plan.
Ok? The nurse is gonna send him home, and then Jake's going to come right up here with me.
You'll see.
You know what, Chels? If you want to sit up in some tree with your rib-eating boyfriend, go ahead and go.
Do it.
Fine.
Thank you so much for being here.
We got some really great acts coming up tonight.
Music is so important to children, so please, give generously.
Man, I feel really bad about leaving Chelsea up in that tree all by herself.
Yeah, you never know, Rae.
Jake could've climbed up there after school.
Yeah.
Maybe my vision was wrong.
We never saw Jake actually eating the ribs.
Yeah.
Until now! Look at him greasing on those baby backs! These are the best ribs in town.
My vision was right! Come on.
You lyin', rib lickin' Trying to eat my daddy's ribs! Raven, what's wrong? That is Jake.
He lied to Chelsea, because he eatin' ribs.
You don't eat ribs, homey.
Raven, wait.
Calm down.
This is exactly why I don't give out the names.
So, 'sup, Jake? Why aren't you up in the tree with Chelsea? No, I mean, come on, bro.
Chelsea's cute, but She's not tree-climbing cute.
So, you really weren't down for the cause.
You lied to her? You're a guy.
You know how it is.
You want to get with the ladies, you got to tell them what they want to hear.
You tell them what Right! I got it.
You got barbecue sauce all over your shirt, man.
Dude, no I don't.
Now you do, ok? Now get on! Get on before you get hickory smoked somewhere.
Yes, you rib-licking You ain't gettin' no ribs! That was my best customer.
Come on, Eddie.
You know what we got to do, right? Yeah.
I'm with you.
Let's go.
Man, how can something that looks so good sound so bad? Something must be done.
Cory, I have a confession.
I have stage fright.
I can't sing in front of all these people.
That's great! I mean That is great that you shared that with me.
You don't have to sing tonight.
Thank you, Cory.
That's ok.
But I'm letting the band down.
No! No! That's ok.
That's ok.
That's ok.
But wait a minute here.

Jake? What are you guys doing here? Chelsea Jake's not coming.
Yeah, I guess I kinda figured that when I saw the nurse go home.
I'm really sorry, Chels, but we saw Jake at the Chill Grill eating ribs.
Yeah.
And this time, we saw him with our own eyes.
It's my own fault.
I mean, you guys tried to warn me.
It's just I was just so excited about finding a guy I had so much in common with.
I should've listened to you.
I'm such a jerk.
No.
He's the jerk.
Yeah.
And he missed out on a great girl.
You guys Hey, is it all right if I get my old locker back? Yeah.
It's right there waiting for you.
So, this is old oakey? He ain't so bad.
