Make It or Break It (2009) s02e06 Episode Script

Party Gone Out of Bounds

Previously on "Make it Or Break it" Your friend just stole Emily's routine.
- How could you do that? - She stole my choreographer.
- So I stole her choreography.
- I can't tell you I love you because you do stuff like you just did to Emily.
I was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime.
- On a date.
- Yes.
Promise rings.
We promise to focus on nothing but gymnastics and forsake the biggest distraction of all: boys.
Why do you like everybody to think you're such a party boy? It's part of my image.
Your game isn't working on me.
Can't blame a guy for trying.
[dialing.]
[dialing.]
[Chloe.]
I can't believe we fell asleep! I can't believe I'm letting you leave without an encore of last night.
Stop! What if Lauren catches me sneaking out of your house like? - A common tramp? - What are you doing up this early? I had a bad dream and now I've woken up to a nightmare.
I should get home to my kids.
I'm sure they're used to you cattin' around all night.
That's enough.
I'll talk to you later.
So does this mean I can sneak boys into the house to have sex with? It certainly does not.
I'm an adult, and you better not have sex with anyone until you're at least 18.
You have nothing to worry about.
I'm a virgin and I plan on staying one.
Well, I'm very happy to hear that because girls who win gold medals aren't interested in boys.
They're only interested in winning.
[# Day Of Fire: Cold Addiction.]
# Cold addiction rising up # # Inside And I wanna get out of here # [beeping.]
# Staring through a hole Blind eyes ashamed # # The river of excuses I've been drowning in # # Lost my head again # # Like I want to # # Cold addiction Screaming in my mind # # I wanna get out of here # # Line by line I run from it all # Oh, boy! Did I sleep well last night.
- How about ya'll? - Fine.
- Good.
- You were out like a light when I got home last night.
You didn't even notice me come in.
I did, however, hear you cursing when you climbed through your bedroom window this morning.
We don't care that you spend the night at your boyfriend's.
We also don't care that you're having sex.
- Wh - Just make sure you're being safe.
Whenever you start sleeping with someone new make sure both get tested for any STIs.
All right.
You Come on! We're gonna be late! Come on! Hurry! Oh [laughing.]
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- How - How - Go ahead.
- Oh I was just gonna ask how was your evening? Very nice.
How was yours? Great.
I mean, it could have been greater, if I'd have spent it with you.
Um So, to avoid any more lost opportunities for greatness, would you like to have dinner with me tonight? I would love to have dinner with you tonight.
Great.
- Oh, and I think it would be best if we didn't - Tell anyone.
- Just because - People talk.
- And it's Exactly.
- None of their business.
I'll pick you up at six.
Great.
[rock music plays.]
OK, so we have a National practice in a few days, and next week the National Committee is picking the team for World.
So I think that we should run up Bear Peak every morning before practice.
- I'm in.
- Uh, what time are we talking? - 5:30.
- Are you insane? Oh, Lauren, don't worry.
I don't expect you to have the discipline to drag yourself out of Carter's bed at 5:30.
I dragged myself out of his bed this morning at 5:00.
[Kaylie scoffs.]
Whatever.
Extra conditioning is gonna give us an edge over the other National Team girls.
And remember, only six of the 12 will make the World Team.
Hey.
Are we talkin' Worlds already? That's months away.
- What do you want? - Just to invite you lovely ladies to a party at my new lake house this afternoon.
It's right after practice until the beer runs out - or the cops bust us up.
- This guy, he doesn't give up.
Well, we regret to inform you that even if we wanted to go to your frat party, which we don't, we can't because we have practice in the morning and we need to get to bed early.
Too bad.
Some of my co-Olympians would dig meeting the Rock Rebels.
- What Olympians? - I don't want to drop any names.
- Drop away.
- Just Bode, probably Shaun, maybe Evan.
- Shaun White? - Evan Lysacek? - Bode Miller? Yum.
- We're not going.
Speak for yourself.
- I'll be there.
- [Austin.]
Bring your suit.
- Or not.
- [chuckles.]
- I got a Jacuzzi.
- Of course you do.
Goodbye.
You so want to go to his party.
- You know you do.
- I would love to meet Shaun White.
Hello? Remember the last time we went to a party? Things got totally out of control.
As I recall, you got totally out of control.
- Who, "Keg-Stand Kaylie"? - Oh, and let's not forget who lost their virginity.
- To my boyfriend.
- Shh! Sasha's coming.
Good morning, ladies.
As you all know, the selection for the team going to Worlds is three weeks away and the six girls who make that team will of course pave their way to the Olympic Team in 2012.
So this next week is critical.
You will have to train harder than ever before.
Ten hours a day, seven days a week.
So I want you to take tomorrow off.
Rest your bodies, have some fun, relax, because Monday, boot camp begins.
Gee, how could we relax, have some fun? Kaylie, any ideas? Sub By YesCool Make it Or Break It Season 2, Episode 06 - Party Gone Out Of Bounds You Know Shace, Whan ever He Said Relex, Have Fun! What He really means is, "This is a test and you better get your butts in the gym and impress me.
" When has Sasha ever said to relax and have fun? - It's true, this is a first.
- He seemed like he meant it.
Look, whether Sasha meant it or not, we could all use the extra practice.
Emily, you're not sticking your vaults consistently.
Lauren, you need to raise your DOD on bars, and Payson Well, let's face it.
You're struggling with level seven and eight skills.
Gee, thanks.
Look, I'm sorry.
But as the team captain, it's my job to make sure everybody's on top of their game.
Oh, I thought that was Sasha's job and he seems to think our "game" is good enough to warrant a day off.
I could care less what you do.
Emily? Payson? Yeah.
I'm always up for more practice.
Sure.
And that's why we have promise rings, and you don't.
And that's why I have a boyfriend and you don't.
I don't want a boyfriend, Lauren.
Really? You wouldn't wanna hook up with Austin? Because, if you don't nab him soon, someone else will.
Emily? [laughs.]
- Good morning.
- Good morning! You look awfully cheerful this morning.
Sasha's taking me out to dinner tonight.
- That's great! - But we don't want anyone to know, - so don't tell him I told you.
- Consider it in the vault.
But maybe you could find out where he's taking me, you know, just so I know how to dress.
You know, I think, since we're all working together, it might be a good idea if I didn't get in the middle.
Of course.
You're right.
Don't tell Sasha I asked you.
I'm gonna go sneak out for a mani-pedi.
- [laughs.]
- [Summer.]
Oh! - Oh, hey.
- Hi.
- [both.]
Sorry.
- Good morning.
You look awfully cheerful this morning.
- Yeah, I asked Summer out to dinner tonight.
- Oh, really? Mm.
But we don't want anyone to know, so don't tell her I told you.
- Consider it in the vault.
- Um, do you think she'd like Le Privilege? - I've heard it's the best restaurant in town.
- Me, too.
I'm dying to eat there, but Mark says it's too pricey.
So you think I shouldn't take her there? I think since we're all working together, it might be a good idea if I didn't get in the middle.
Right.
Of course.
But don't tell her I asked you.
It's in the vault.
[rock music plays.]
[exhales.]
So, what happened to you last night? I didn't think you'd expect me after our fight.
- What fight? - About Emily? I don't suppose you even considered apologizing to her for stealing her choreography? - What do you care? - I care because frankly your behavior is a turnoff.
Well, speaking of turnoffs, Mr.
Nice Guy who always finishes last around here isn't exactly a turn-on.
Emily is my competition, but if you can't understand that maybe some of the Olympians at Austin's party will be turned on by a girl who actually wants to win.
Ooh! [mumbles inaudibly.]
Hey, how you doing? What's up? Emily and Brian know I didn't come home last night.
- What did they say? - They don't care.
The only thing they care about is that we get checked out for STIs.
- What happened to STDs? - Apparently they've changed "diseases" to "infections.
" - Well, I don't have either.
- Neither do I.
But they're right, we do need to set an example for practicing safe sex.
Not that we want our children to be having sex.
I told Lauren if she has sex before she's 18, I'm cutting her off.
And believe me, she won't let anything come between her and my credit card.
So why don't we have a romantic dinner tonight and go back to my place and not worry if we fall asleep? - And what about Lauren? - I'll deal with Lauren.
And in case you've forgotten, it's our three-month anniversary so I made a reservation at Le Privilege.
- Oh, that's so sweet.
- I just want tonight to be very special.
[up-tempo music plays.]
# In the middle of the night When the disco's dark # # In the middle of the floor # I think you should know my feelings are deeply hurt.
Why? # Somebody strike a look # [music continues indistinct.]
Because I heard Sasha gave you guys the day off tomorrow, so there's no reason you can't come to my party except you must not like me.
I like you.
[grunts.]
But Commandant Cruz does not.
Look, Kaylie's the team captain - and she's just - Trying to control everyone? Is that her job? To nip at your heels like a little border collie herding her sheep? Yip, yip! I'm sorry your feelings are hurt, but I just can't come.
[up-tempo music continues.]
I would really appreciate it if you stopped trying to pressure my girls into going to your stupid party.
Why are you so scared of your girls having a little fun? Or is it that you're scared of having a little fun? You might loosen up, drink a beer, do a keg stand? - How do you know about that? - I can't reveal my source.
But the old Kaylie sounds like she was a lot more fun.
Yeah, well, the old Kaylie wasn't the National champ or the team captain, and it's my job to keep a grip on my teammates.
Hm How much you want to bet they slip through your grip and come to my party? How about a week cleaning the girls' mats? Make it two.
And who knows, you might even slip through your own grip and make an appearance.
Believe me, Austin, I wouldn't be caught dead at your party.
Hey.
So listen, I was thinking we could head over to my house and watch last year's Worlds on DVD again.
- How riveting! - And then Emily and Payson, you both could spend the night and we can wake up early to run before practice tomorrow.
So that Kaylie can make sure Emily doesn't sneak off to Austin's party.
I can't tonight.
My mom's going out for her three-month anniversary.
- Gag me.
- I wish.
And I promised Brian I'd help him with a project.
Which your mom-tramp can't do because she'll be spending the night at my house again? I'll see you guys in the morning.
I'm in.
I'll meet you at the car.
OK.
Are you really buying that Brian excuse? What do you mean? Didn't you see the way Emily's eyes lit up when he asked us? She and Austin have gotten to be pretty good friends.
If you ask me, I'm not the only one going to that party.
Lauren, I'd like to explain to you about this morning.
I wasn't spending the night.
I fell asleep.
After you had sex with my dad all night? You know, come to think of it, I heard some high-pitched squeals, but I thought it was a cat in heat.
All right.
Listen here, missy.
I know you ran Summer off with your sass and brass, but don't think I can't make your life just as miserable as you make mine.
Yeah, well, FYI, I didn't chase Summer off.
My dad dumped her because I will always come first.
And if he didn't marry Summer, who he truly loved, do you think he'd ever marry you? You know, honey, I think it would be very unwise to underestimate me.
[scoffs.]
[Summer.]
Everything OK? No.
Chloe's been spending the night over at our house and flaunting it in my face.
If it's OK for them to be having premarital sex right down the hall, I guess it's OK for me to do it, too.
Lauren, remember after you [whispers.]
you lost your virginity to Carter, we talked and you decided to wait until marriage the next time.
Yes.
Which is why I need you to get back together with my dad.
I need a positive influence in my life and so does he.
It's not like you're seeing anyone else, right? Right.
I know my dad still loves you.
Can't you just give it another chance? Do you think maybe you're over-training? You already ran five miles before practice this morning.
Andre Agassi used to ride the stationary bike for an hour before and after a five-set tennis match.
That's how he got in such great condition.
He also burned out at one point and started doing drugs.
[Kaylie.]
Don't worry about it.
I've got everything under control.
Hey.
Take it from me.
You don't want to risk a serious injury and have to start all over again.
You're gonna make a full comeback, Payson.
And you're gonna be better than you ever were.
Especially if we all just focus on training.
And not going to Austin's party.
Which isn't what you're thinking about at all.
Wha? What are you talking about? The Kaylie I used to know would be dying to go check out that party.
Why does everybody keep on saying that? I'm the same Kaylie I've always been.
I'm just responsible for the team now, and what I'm thinking is that Emily lied.
She went to the party and she might get into trouble.
Well, if that's really what you're thinking, why don't you call her at home and see if she's there? Oh.
Yeah.
Good idea.
- [Kaylie exhales.]
- [phone dialing.]
[ringing.]
[Brian.]
Hello? Hi, Brian.
This is, um, Kaylie.
Is Emily home? Uh, no, she just went to the store.
- Have you tried her cell? - [Kaylie.]
No.
- I will.
Thanks.
- [beeps.]
He said she went to the store.
But he didn't sound very convincing.
A-ha.
And her cell goes straight to voicemail.
Do you really think she went to Austin's party? Well, there's only one way to find out.
We have got to go to the lake house and see for ourselves.
I just gotta shower and change.
Oh.
Shower and change? I can't go to Austin's party looking like this.
- Oh, no.
- Because I'm sweaty.
- Right.
- [scoffs.]
- [man.]
Good evening.
- Table for two.
Belov.
Follow me, please.
I've never been here before.
Apparently, it's the best restaurant in Boulder.
- Oh.
- Oh, here, let me do that.
[clears throat.]
Thank you.
It's nice to see you again, Miss Van Horn.
Seems like you're a regular here.
Not anymore.
I just I used to come here with Steve a lot.
Oh.
Well Well, would you rather go someplace else? Oh, no, no, no! It's wonderful.
Really.
Is something else bothering you? I'm just feeling a little guilty about telling Lauren a fib.
A fib? Oh.
Wow.
I hope God doesn't strike you down with lightning.
She asked me if I was seeing anyone and I said no.
'Yeah, 'cause you were being discreet.
And because she's still hoping I'll get back with her father, and after she told me about Chloe spending the night over there, I just I didn't want to upset her anymore.
Are you sure you're not the one who's upset that Chloe's spending the night with Steve? I'm only upset about what message it sends to Lauren.
I'm sorry.
I just violated the most important first date rule.
- Which is? - Don't talk about your ex.
Good rule.
I'm really happy to be here with you, away from The Rock, alone, not worrying about anyone watching us.
Chloe and [rock music plays on radio.]
# Just one more play # # I'm sorry now I'm sorry now # # I'm sorry now # - All right.
This must be it.
- You think? So, what's the plan? We're just gonna march in, say hello to a few Olympians, then find Emily and drag her out by her hair? No.
We are not marching in there.
Austin can't know I came to his party.
So, what are we doing here then? We're just seeing if Emily's here because our promise rings are supposed to mean something.
Really? We are just going to spy? And make sure she's not drinking - Or flirting with Austin? - No.
I could care less about Austin.
- Well, aren't you coming? - No.
If all we're doing is sneaking around, I'll wait in the car.
I've suffered enough humiliation lately.
[sighs.]
[whispers.]
Fine.
[indistinct chattering.]
OK.
[hip-hop music plays.]

[groans.]
- Miss - Oh.
Thank you.
[waiter.]
Here are your menus.
Enjoy your dinner.
- Can't we just leave? - Not without them seeing us.
What if we move our table? Like into the kitchen? I got a better idea.
I got you a little something.
- Thank you.
- Is everything OK? You know, I thought you and Summer had a mutual parting of ways.
- Where is this coming from? - Lauren.
I tried to talk to her about last night, and all she had to say is that she got rid of Summer - and she'll get rid of me, too.
- That's ridiculous.
She didn't get rid of Summer.
Summer got rid of me.
You say that like you still have feelings for her.
I am completely over Summer Van Horn.
And I don't want to talk about her.
I just want a night alone with you, without any blast from the past intruding on our three-month anniversary.
- We didn't order that.
- Oh, yes, I know.
The gentleman over there did.
- What are you doing? - Trust me.
[hip-hop music plays.]
# We the type to get started # [continues indistinct.]
# Can't I do it just how you want it # # Came to shut down the party # Here you are.
Cold off the keg.
- You sure you want this? - That's what we're here for, right? - To drink and have fun? - You don't have to drink to have fun.
I'd hate to see the headline, "National Champ Misses Worlds Due to Keg Stand Mishap.
" Oh.
Don't worry.
I'm a big girl.
So, what made you change your mind about coming to my party? Uh, I just wanted to show everyone that the old fun-loving Kaylie is still alive and well.
What? What are you doing? There's some pepperoni in your hair.
Oh, uh Um - So is Emily here? - [sighs.]
No.
She said she couldn't come.
Oh, I thought she might have changed her mind.
I'm sure the fun Kaylie will have a good time without her.
[camera clicks.]
thishU, - Hey.
- Hey.
Kaylie called.
- Did she say what she wanted? - Just to see if you were home.
I'll bet.
What did you tell her? That you went to the store.
What's the big whoop? She's totally paranoid that I'm gonna sneak off to Austin's party.
You know, I'm tempted to go just to spite her.
[cell phone rings.]
Oh, my God! They must be on a date.
Right? I can't believe Sasha would go for Summer when he could have had me.
[clears throat.]
He could've had you? Oh, you know what I mean.
Someone like me.
Someone sexy.
- I think Summer's sexy.
- Oh, really? Just because she doesn't believe in premarital sex - doesn't mean she's not - So she's the Madonna and I'm the I should probably go thank them for the champagne.
I should probably thank them, too.
Here they come.
I still don't see how they're gonna believe this is a business dinner at Le Privilege.
The idea is to act like we have nothing to hide.
Hi! Steve, Chloe, what a lovely surprise.
- Thanks for the champagne.
- My pleasure.
So, what brings the two of you to such a romantic restaurant? I wanted to bring my gym manager out to thank her for all her hard work.
Really? And what about Kim? You don't appreciate her hard work as much as Summer's? Here I am! I'm so sorry I'm late.
Traffic was a bear! Steve, Chloe.
What special occasion brings you out to such a nice restaurant? - I dine here often.
- So I've heard.
Um, it's our three-month anniversary and Stevie wanted to celebrate.
It's so romantic.
[laughs.]
I wish I was here for romance instead of business.
Not that a gym manager appreciation dinner isn't a treat.
I hope it's not a treat you plan on expensing to The Rock? You've got nothing to worry about, Steve.
This one's on me.
Well, I'm starving.
We'll excuse ourselves then.
Have a nice appreciation dinner.
- What are you doing here? - Being your beard, apparently.
And I didn't even get a chance to wash my hair.
But I finally get to eat at the best restaurant in Boulder.
Can I borrow your menu? - I texted her under the table.
- [sighs.]
- What are you doing? - Waiting for lightning to strike.
- [rock music plays.]
- [indistinct chattering.]
[laughs.]
I'll be right back.
So, as I predicted, you just couldn't stay away from the party.
Or Austin.
I knew those promise rings were a sham.
And Payson's here, too? What are you doing? I got sick of waiting for you in the car.
Is that a beer? I thought we were here to look for Emily.
Of course! I wonder what Emily would think if she knew you were checking up on her? [boy.]
Hey, Lauren, we're waiting for you! Coming! - Oh, my gosh! - What? I just saw Shaun White! He's really here.
Look, I don't see him.
Look, Emily's not here.
We just should go.
- Do you really want to go? - We have to go.
What if Emily finds out we came to the party after we made her promise not to? God, I feel like such an idiot! Well, you are an idiot, but I'm not leaving until I meet Shaun White.
He's a two-time Olympic gold medalist! - Payson - Two! I'm surprised to see you here.
Yeah.
Because I'm such a good girl and everyone knows good girls don't have any fun.
Just take it easy on the beer.
Remember the last time you drank? Yeah, I did a keg stand, which apparently was a lot more memorable than the gold medal I won at Nationals.
It was pretty memorable.
Speaking of memorable, that was also the party where you hooked up with my best friend.
Carter I just have to ask.
Why did you choose Lauren over me? Because Lauren wanted me, and I just felt like you wanted control.
Well, it looks like your new girlfriend has control now.
Or don't you care that she flirts with other guys right in front of you? So I thought you said you wouldn't be caught dead at Austin's party? Me? Oh What about you? [laughs.]
Well, I was keeping my promise at home, when Lauren sent me this.
Look, I only came to the party because I thought you had lied about having to stay at home with your brother.
And that explains the beer in your hand.
I haven't even had a sip of this, Emily.
Well, that's good, because we all know what happened the last time you had a sip.
Oh, my God! If one more person mentions my keg stand I swear I'm What? Try to control everything we say as well as everything we do? It's my job to keep everybody in line.
Payson, you were team captain before me.
Tell them what a leader is supposed to do.
A leader is supposed to lead by example.
She counsels, but she doesn't command.
Fine.
You want me to lead by example? I'm leaving.
She's right.
We should leave.
As soon as I introduce myself to Bode Miller.
It'll just be a minute.
I'll be right back.
Hey, how about some girl-on-girl Gumby action? - Yeah! - Come on.
What do you say? Winner makes the loser do whatever she wants.
- You're on.
- Yeah! That's a lovely scarf.
Hermes? Um, yes.
Ste gave it to me for our anniversary.
I have a drawer full of them.
It.
Well, it's the only one that I have and I love it.
Look, Summer, it's obvious you don't approve of me dating Steve.
I dot have a problem with you dating Steve, but I do have a problem with you spending the night at a man's house when he has a teenage daughter living under his roof.
I'm sorry you don't apove of my values.
I'm not questioning your values.
I'm questioning your judgment.
If Lauren sees her father having casual sex, why can't she? I wouldn't exactly call it casual.
The point is you're sending a message, not only to his daughter, but to yours.
And is that the example you want to set? Hey, you OK? You must think I'm a real a dork now.
Coming to your party to look for Emily? I don't think you're a dork.
- I think you're just - Trying to control everyone? I was gonna say under a lot of pressure to defend your title.
I know what it's like to be on top, and the pressure to stay there is a lot worse than the pressure getting there.
How do you deal with it? You make it seem so easy.
It's not easy, Kaylie.
Everybody's trying to knock you off and take your place.
Even your friends.
You know, some National champs could care less if their teammates tripped up, especially if it secured their spot as number one.
You know what's cool about you? You want them to do their best, too.
Yeah, I try, you know? I mean, I really want to inspire them.
I try to get tm to practice harder, to focus more.
I try to look the other way when the girl who was like my sister talks every day in detail about having sex with the only guy I've ever loved.
Wow, I shouldn't have said that.
Why? It sucks.
And look at you.
You still treat her like a teammate.
Yeah, well Everybody's right.
I have been uptight, and controlling, but the old, fun-loving, boy-crazy Kaylie wasn't a winner or a team leader, and I guess I just don't know how to be everything.
Sometimes it helps to stop thinking so much and just let go a little.
How? What are you thinking about right now? - Nothing.
- That's how.
I'll see you at The Rock.
And hey, thanks for coming to my party.
Whatever the reason.
[police radio chatter.]
- ??? # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # # Freedom # # Rolling like a feather # # It's electric # # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # # Jump in # # Ride it out forever # Right hand red! # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # - All right! Left foot green! [all.]
Oh! - I win! - [cheering.]
[sighs.]
Let me see.
I won, so I get to choose what Emily has to do.
So, what Emily has to do is accept my apology for stealing your choreography and ruing your custom leotard.
I I accept your apology.
- I thought you left.
- The cops are here.
- So? - There's underage drinking going on.
- We're not drinking.
- They don't know that.
What if Sasha finds out we went to a party? - Come on, this way.
- [man.]
We better get out of here.
Oh, wait! No, no, other way! - Go, hurry! - [gasps.]
My purse! Excuse me, young lady.
Do you know if minors have been drinking here today? - Um - We can't just leave her here.
- What are we supposed to do? - Cause a distraction.
Do you know who lives here? - Um - [cheering.]
Hey, Auggie, get a load of this.
[cheering.]
[dance music plays.]
[siren wails.]
[police radio chatter.]
- How do we get out of here? - Uh Swim! # Yeah, you've been # - # We've been lying # - # All this time # - # Yeah, you've been # - # We've been lying # # Yeah, you've been all this time # - I'd ask you in, but - Yeah.
Some first date, right? No.
It would've been great.
I I feel like I ruined it.
I'm so sorry.
You didn't ruin anything.
Maybe trying to be too discreet is a bad idea.
It's not like we're doing anything wrong.
- I just don't want disappoint anyone.
- You mean Lauren? Is it really better for her to think there's a chance for you and her father? No.
I want her to have a good role model in her life.
Who doesn't believe in premarital sex? Not everyone can live up to your high values.
Well, can you? Do you think I'm the kind of man that would ask you out if I wasn't prepared to respect your values? No.
OK.
I'll see you in the morning.
Hey.
I know this is our first date, but would it be all right if I kissed you good night? Well, it is a little forward, but I think it might be all right.
Why can't we just go to a party and he a good time like normal girls? - Because we're not normal.
- d if we want to go to the Olympics, we can't do the things that normal girls can do.
Like have boyfriends? - Eat anything we want.
- Or go to aeal school.
- Or have real friends - because we spend all of our time at the gym.
- We're not real friends? I don't know.
Sometimes I'm not sure what we are.
- It's really complicated.
- Because we're competitors? We're also teammates.
What are friends, besides people who have something in common.
Which we do.
We have a dream in common which is a greater bond than all having a crush on the same rock star or going shopping together at the mall.
Sometimes I feel like we're in military boot camp, in the same company with the same mission, but only one of us makes it out alive.
Yeah, and we have making all our lives miserable.
And that would be me? You have been a little intense lately.
[sighs.]
I know.
And I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to be the leader that Payson was.
You were so strong and sure of yourself.
It made us all feel really safe.
And I guess I don't know how to do that.
And when Sasha said that I was responsible for all of your failures, - I took that seriously.
- He shouldn't have put that on you.
We're each responsible for the choices we make.
And it's only self-determination that's gonna get us to the Olympics.
- She's right.
- It's true.
And look, the promise to work hard and stay focused is one we can only make to ourselves, not to each other.
So I guess we won't be needing these anymore.
From now on, I will only lead by example.
I will totally support you, but I will not try to control you.
- Agreed? - [all.]
Agreed.
[all laugh.]
So, what do you say we take these into the bedroom? Actually, no.
I've been thinking about it, and I don't think we're sending the right message, for us to be carrying on with a teenaged girl in the house.
What's gotten into you? I just don't think you and me having casual sex sets the right example for our daughters, or my son.
Sex should be between two people who truly care about each other and are at least exclusive.
Do you think I'm seeing anyone else? I don't know.
We never talked about it.
Well, I'm not.
And I don't want to.
- And I hope you don't either.
- I don't.
Well OK.
Good.
- [laughs.]
- So, what do you say when we want to "carry on," we go to a hotel? That sounds romantic.
How about now? How about during the day or early evening so I can get home to my kids at a decent hour? I have to set an example there, too.
OK.
- So, what would you like to do? - Um Well, we haven't had dessert yet.
Have you ever had fried ice cream and chocolate sauce? - Uh, can't say I have.
- Then you are in for a big treat! Do you have a deep fryer? Or a wok will do in a pinch.
I think we might have a wok in one of the boxes in the garage attic.
- I'll go look.
- No, why don't you go get some vanilla ice cream and some dark sweet chocolate.
And I will go find the wok.
Oh! [gasps.]
