That's So Raven (2003) s04e22 Episode Script

Where There's Smoke

Dad, don't worry, ok? Just enjoy the utensil convention.
Are you really surprised that no one showed up for the ladle-palooza? Seriously.
Dad, I know.
I know.
Listen, the casserole is in the oven.
Yes, yes, yes.
You take it out, you let it cool, you shampoo it, you rinse it, repeat it.
I'm just playing with you, daddy.
Hold on.
Let me call you right back.
I love you, too.
Bye-bye.
Excuse me! Where do you think you're going? To the library.
With a basketball? Dad put me in charge.
I need you to respect me enough to give me a decent lie.
Sorry.
I was in a rush.
Cory, you're not going anywhere until you finish your chores.
I did 'em.
So you cleaned your room? Yes.
You picked up the laundry? Yes.
You picked up fresh milk? Yes! You may go.
Thank you.
Yep, when it comes to little brothers, you've just got to show 'em who's boss.
Cory! Yep, that's me.
Hey, Cory.
Hey, Cindy! Come on in.
I'm glad you called.
We haven't hung out in a while.
I know.
I had a completely free weekend And, you know, I wanted us to hang out.
Yeah.
Nice socks.
You know, they make those for girls, too.
So, yeah, how's your new school? Well, it's a lot different from our elementary school.
Yeah, yeah.
I miss naptown, too.
But I am making some cool new friends.
That's good.
That's good.
So, is your dad home? No.
Good.
Mind if I smoke? Yeah, sometimes you got to what? Tell me those are candy.
Cory, you're so cute.
Yeah.
What are you doing? Having a cigarette.
Want one? No, I don't want one, and you don't want one, either.
Cory, what's the big deal? Lots of my new friends smoke.
It's cool.
No, it's not, ok? I can't believe my sweet, innocent Cindy is a smoker.
Well, actually, I only tried it once, and I coughed my brains out.
So why would you do it again? Well, my friends say you have to do it a few times to get used to it.
Well, your friends are idiots.
No, they're not! Cory, you're stressing me out.
I need a cigarette.
Wait.
Wait.
Fine.
Who are you? Look, if your parents ever found out Cory, please promise me you won't tell my parents or anyone else about this.
Please? All right, I promise.
But look, your smoking days, they're over, ok? Give it! You ain't getting these back.
I thought you were my friend.
Cory! I am your friend.
That's why I'm taking these.
Remember, you promised.
Cory, how come you're not in there doing the laundry? I'm gonna do it in a minute, ok? Ok.
You need to take that 2-day-old shirt you got on.
That smells nasty.
Yes, thank you.
All right, look.
I'm gonna do it in a minute, ok? Just get off my case.
I got a lot on my mind.
All right.
And you know what? You need to take off my socks.
Hey, Rae.
What's up? Hey.
What's that? Wait a minute.
Is that your dad's famous vegetable casserole? Yeah.
I'm gonna need you to stop sniffing, ok? You're gonna suck all the flavor out of it.
When can we eat some? You can't.
It's special order for the mayor's birthday banquet.
The mayor? Fancy! Yeah.
Somebody from his office is coming by later to pick it up, so I don't mean to be rude, but I got a lot of chores, you guys.
What can we do to help, Rae? You can do the dusting, you can do the vacuuming, you can pick up the laundry.
Anything we can do from right here? Actually, yeah.
When the casserole is finished, the timer will go off.
I need you to put it on the counter and let it cool.
And Chels, can you remember to put on your oven mitts this time? Right.
I used to have the cutest fingerprints.
Yeah.
And make sure Cory's grubby little hands don't get all up in it.
Don't you worry about that, little missy.
'Cause anybody that gets near this, they got to come through me.
Right.
Well, all right.
Let's just wait for the ding.
That can't be too hard.
Yeah.
Right.
I can't take this endless waiting.
It's ready.
Hot.
Man, it looks delicious.
I wonder if it tastes as good as it smells? Hey! You heard Raven.
This is for the mayor.
Right.
It's for the mayor, Chelsea.
It's for the mayor.
Yes.
Oops.
Little piece fell off right there by accident.
Shame to let it go to waste.
Eddie, now look at it.
It's all lopsided.
We We We should even it out.
Right.
Hey, Eddie.
You think Raven's going to notice? Yeah, she's gonna freak.
Don't panic.
Don't panic.
We'll just look up the recipe that Mr.
B made, and make another one before Raven even gets here.
Right.
Right.
But if we're gonna make a new one, won't we need an empty pan? Right! Right! Cory, I'm home.
I hope you got the Laundry.
Cory Lazy Non-working Good-for-nothing Cigarette Cigarette smoking? No.
Cory! What's all the screaming about? I was in the middle of a power nap.
You haven't even heard screaming yet.
What is this? I don't know anything about it.
I found it in your shirt.
I was holding it for a friend.
I thought you said you didn't know anything about it.
That was before I knew you found it in my shirt.
Do you want to try another lie? That's not my shirt? Cory! Don't you know how dangerous cigarette smoking is? Of course I do.
Then why did I find one in your shirt? And you'd better tell me the truth.
Listen, listen, listen.
The truth is I have never smoked a cigarette in my life, and I never will.
And you're just gonna have to believe me.
God, I don't know what to believe.
It's a good thing Raven didn't find these.
He told me he cleaned up this place.
He also told me that wasn't his cigarette.
Pssh.
He's a liar, a smoker, and a slob.
I gotta find that pack of cigarettes and bust him big time.
Yah! Yeah, Larry.
Did you get it? Yeah, baby.
Yes! Drag Race 3000.
Look at that race car tearing up that track.
I know, man.
Let's go pop this sucker in.
Wait.
I forgot the laundry.
Raven has really been on my case, man.
I gotta take care of this.
You're gonna wash it now? No, I'm gonna hide it now.
Come on, man.
I know those cigarettes are in here somewhere.
My visions are never wrong.
Even I gotta laugh at that one.
Come on, Larry.
Let's fire it up.
Fire it up? Perfect.
Now I can catch him in the act.
What was that? Maybe someone dropped a coconut.
Yeah.
This is beyond nasty.
Ok, let's start dragging.
Yeah.
Larry's smoking, too? I knew that kid was a bad seed.
What's that smell? I guess this dirty laundry's getting a little ripe.
More goofy socks.
All done.
There we go.
Yeah.
You ready? Let's do it! Might as well kick off your shoes and get comfortable.
Man.
Puke.
This wasn't the best hiding place.
Man, these things are getting expensive.
But what can we do? We're hooked.
Yeah.
All right, I get the first drag.
You know you're just gonna choke.
No, not this time.
I've been smokin' 'em at the arcade.
What is wrong with this thing? It's not lighting up.
You know what? This pack must not be fresh.
Don't worry about it.
I always keep a fresh pack at my house.
Let's head over to your house.
My house just ain't working out.
Let's head for your house.
One second, Larry.
I forgot to do something.
It's a good thing Raven didn't find these.
Got 'em! He is not gonna lie his way out of this one.
It's ready! Yes! Over mitts.
Right.
Thanks, man.
Ok, close that.
Close that.
Man.
Smells great.
Looks great.
Let's see if it tastes great.
No, we can't! That's how we got into this mess in the first place.
I know.
It's just that it tastes so good.
What are you guys doing? Nothing.
Just, like you said, waiting on the mayor's casserole to cool down.
Yep, yep, yep.
That was hours ago.
My goodness.
It's hot.
Like it just came out of the oven.
Well, you know that old saying: A watched casserole never cools.
Yeah, I heard that.
Yeah.
Look, whatever.
I have bigger problems.
What? Well, Rae.
Come on! Whatever the problem is here, smoking is no solution.
I don't have the problem, Chels.
Cory is the one smoking.
Cory? Are you sure? What? Cory's too smart to be smoking.
Yeah, I thought so, too, but I found a cigarette in his pocket, and I found this pack in his room.
Yeah, that sounds bad to me.
And then I just heard him and Larry that they were gonna take a drag and light it up and smoke it and Wait a minute.
Are you sure they just weren't playing Drag Race 3000 and you misinterpreted everything you heard? Chels, come back to earth.
Ok.
I'm back.
I have to do something about Cory.
Are you gonna tell your dad? If I have to, but I want to talk to him myself first.
Come on, Rae.
How are you gonna do that? I have an idea, but I'm gonna need your help.
You know we got your back, girl.
I know.
I'm just gonna make a couple calls.
Ok.
Speaking of calls Something is calling me.
Eddie, come on, dude.
No.
Look, we can't.
But we must.
Ok.
We can always make another one.
Right.
Cindy.
Thank goodness.
Come on in.
Raven, I got your message.
What's the problem? Join the group.
Here's the situation.
Someone that we all know and love is Smoking.
It's Cory.
Cory? Yeah, and you know what? Of course he denied it, you know? Saying he was holding it for a friend.
The most transparent of all alibis.
See? I just can't get through to him.
But if all of his friends step up and show him how concerned they are, maybe he'll listen to reason.
See, everyone, I think that Cory just needs a little bit of, you know, Patience Understanding Get him! Ok, what did I do? You know what you did, Cory.
The lying stops right now.
What? Look, I was just at Larry's house, ok? I'll do the stupid laundry.
I'll do everybody's laundry.
No, it's not about the laundry.
We need you to calm down, ok? All right? You're in a safe place.
Now, I just wanted to talk to you about this disgusting smoking habit.
Listen, how many times have I told you? I do not smoke.
I found these in your room.
You went in my room? I thought we had rules about that.
The rules are null and void when it comes to your health and safety, Cory.
Now sit down.
Your friends have something to say.
William.
I'm just gonna give you the facts, Cory.
1: Smoking gives you bad breath.
Bad breath.
And what girl is gonna want to be with you if you smell like an ashtray, Cory? Look at Cindy.
Gagging already.
Think she gonna kiss your nasty mouth? 2: Smoking is gross.
Turns your fingernails yellow, and your teeth brown.
Your fingernails yellow and your teeth brown.
Is that what you want, Cory? And 3: Every cigarette you smoke destroys your lungs, weakens your heart, and shortens your life.
Bad lungs, weak heart, and short life.
Look, I know, I know, I know.
Then why are you doing it, doing it, doing it? What about secondhand smoke, Cory? I mean, it's one thing to ruin your own body, but why does everybody else have to breath that poison? You know what? I don't know anything about that.
And you know why? Because I don't smoke.
Cindy? What? We can't get through to him.
You need to talk to him.
Right.
Yeah.
Cory I'm sorry.
We all are, Cory.
Listen, we care about you.
I mean, I remember when you were just a little kid.
First learned how to use the potty.
And now look at you.
You're throwing your life down it.
Get it together, man! Get your head out of the toilet! You know what? Fine.
Don't believe me.
I'm out of here.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
Hey! Going somewhere, smokey? The Juicer.
Sorry, Cory.
I had to bring in some muscle.
All right, sit down.
Now you're gonna listen, and you're gonna listen good.
Ok.
All right.
Cool.
Now, your sister wanted me to make a little speech about how much you mean to me as a friend, but I don't really do speeches and you're not really my friend.
But you have been growing on me, and I decided if any harm is going to come to you, Cory, it's gonna come from me.
Now, the first step in solving any problem is admitting that you have a problem.
For instance, I have a problem.
I love squeezing kids' heads.
But at least I admit it, Cory, and you need to admit you're smoking.
So we're gonna pool our problems together.
I'm gonna squeeze your head until you admit you're smoking Or juice comes out.
Whichever happens first.
I don't really care.
So, without further ado, place head here.
You know what? Fine.
Just do it fast.
No, wait! Cory's telling the truth.
I'm the one who's smoking.
Cindy, do not take the blame for Cory's problem.
No, it's true.
Come on.
I mean, are we supposed to believe that sweet little innocent Cindy here is the one smoking? Actually, Eddie, a lot of girls nowadays are smoking.
That's a nasty little habit you've got going on.
I know, and after what I've heard today, I promise I'll never do it again.
You promise? I promise.
Ok.
And I'm sorry for getting you in trouble.
That's ok, Cindy.
Sounds like you got the message.
All right.
That's great.
Now excuse me.
Today I heard you and Larry saying, like, smoking and lighting it up.
What was that about? Hey, guys.
I see you're in the middle of something.
Weeny, get in here.
Yes, your juice-ness.
Were you smoking with Cory in his room today? No.
We were up in his bedroom playing Drag Race 3000.
Hey, I pitched that like an hour ago, ok? That's all I'm saying.
So you were telling the truth, Cory.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, if you weren't lying all day maybe I would have believed you.
Ok, I'm sorry.
I guess that did make things worse.
Come on! I took the bus all the way over here.
I don't get to juice anything? Be my guest.
Yeah! Gross! Still got it.
Well, better on the floor than in your lungs.
That's for sure.
Hey, why don't you go clean that up.
What? All right, the laundry's done.
You know, Raven, I'm sorry I gave you such a hard time.
Yeah, and I'm sorry I almost got your head juiced.
Yeah, you should be sorry.
Well, since everyone's saying sorry, we kind of have to say sorry, too.
Yeah.
We sorry that we ate your daddy's casserole.
What? I told you guys that was for the mayor.
They're coming by right now to pick it up.
But don't worry about it, Raven.
Don't worry about it.
We got the recipe, we made a new one, and it came out perfect.
Thank goodness.
Then we ate that one, too.
What? Yeah, we got a little hungry.
But look, you know, it's all right, because we made another one, and it's right in there on the counter cooling down right now.
Thank you.
Man.
You guys tried this casserole? What! What! What! One more time.
Man!
