Taking Seconds

Really, Mrs.
Carlin, if this is a problem Please You're staying with us, until your parents come back to town tomorrow.
- That's it, end of discussion, ok? - Ok.
- Hey - Hey - You okay? - You know, just a bump on the head.
If there's anything that you need, just give us a yell.
Good night.
I'm so happy you're alright.
Thank you.
Hey You're alright? Honestly, I don't know how he's still alive Thank God he was wearing his helmet.
Yeah, but that still doesn't explain why he doesn't have any broken bones.
Would have even crushed his spine, when he was thrown in the air.
That kid doesn't even have a scratch on him.
What are you saying? The only explanation for this kid is ok Isn't Medical.
He was shot last year, in the heart, and lived.
The fact that he is still alive Is nothing sure but a miracle.
Transcripted, edited and resynced by RiCK Hi, hello, I'm Ashley Davies and despite what you may have heard or read, this is my real voice.
The shoes, in other hand, are total knock offs.
I was kind of afraid to come here today.
A friend of mine was in a really bad car accident and, I mean, he's ok now But it just made me think that I should do things before I can't.
So I'd like to thank Egocentric for allowing me to play their first "Ham and Eggs" brunch.
Here goes "Nothing".
Hey you.
Aiden? Oh my God! God, and not a scratch on you! I know can you believe it? Are you feeling ok? I mean, I know you say, you're feeling fine, but you must a a little shaken up or something.
Kyla, I'm fine.
Really.
I just thought you know, I thought after feeding the hungry all day maybe, you're a little hungry yourself.
I do not know I mean, do you have your bike still? Because I was really hoping that you would upgrade to something with maybe four wheels and an airbag or something.
No way.
My bike is the only way I can get your arms around me.
It's not going to be that easy the second time around, isn't it? It wasn't that easy the first time around Woods.
I'm feeling pretty lucky this week.
Dr.
Carlin called me a miracle.
Yeah, I'll say you were really lucky.
What if it's more than that? What do you mean, come on, Aiden? No, you come on.
I mean, something is going on with me.
I don't know what it is, but I can feel it, you know? Like nothing can hurt me.
OK, you're officially freaking me out now.
And what if anything, anything I do, no matter how crazy, how dangerous Whatever it is that you're thinking about, just stop thinking about it, ok? - I was just looking for - Your crumpler half.
She left a little while ago.
Ok, I'll just try to track her down.
Spencer, stay if you want.
I heard her talk to Kyla she'd be back after lunch.
Ok.
Finally got you in my bed.
Bad joke.
Yeah maybe just a little weird.
What's your movie about? I do not know, it's kind of about everyone facing their futures.
Futures are overrated.
You think? Me My plan just for all is today and no tomorrow won't be a total disaster that's how you sing.
Look, I can crash here for a few days, and that's nice but, I mean sleeping in my car, looking I'm next to the beach, that's not so bad either.
Is that thing really on? Yeah, it's a bad habit lately.
So why are you talking to me? Carmen, I No.
Kyla is being really nice and Ashley's been Stoic.
I guess you haven't told her what happened with us.
Well, it never came up, so Spencer, that night is the biggest reason why I left my mom's.
Living there, it made me the kind of person that could shave like that.
I don't want to be that person.
Could you please give me this chance? Yeah, no problem.
- Spencer! - Hey! - Guess what? - What? Ok, I just came back from the "Ham and Eggs" brunch.
at Egocentric it was amazing.
Well, I started to think that was, cause everyone was screaming and yelling "encore".
Guys ended up coming over to me asking me if I had a CD but I just told them I was sold out.
You sang your song at Ego? Yes, and guess what? I called Ethan afterwards, thinking he wasn't even pick up, and he did.
He's going to be in town tomorrow and he wants to see me.
I just I can't believe that you didn't tell me you were going to play.
I know, I'm sorry.
I just couldn't handle you and your camera being there is I was going to wimp out.
Well I wouldn't have brought it if you didn't want me to.
But I know how much this little project means to you.
Little project? Look, this is really important to me.
I'm graduating in a few weeks, and I just have to get this done.
It's as important to me, as your music is to you.
Ok, ok, fine.
No, not fine.
Carmen, can you just give us a second? Wow, how spange is that, that Kyla's outfit? Ashley, be nice.
I'm being so nice.
I opened up my loft to a complete weirdo doodling ex-girlfriend Ok! I'm actually still in the room.
Look, I just wanted to see you perform.
I mean, I am your girlfriend.
And I understand that, but this is something that I needed to do on my own.
Ok.
What are you doing? I'm just going to work on my little project, on my own.
And that one's about my dead dog Butters.
Doesn't have to be the single, or anything.
This one I wrote in Cabo.
I didn't think you have so many.
I feel I have a hundred, between the ones in my mind and on paper.
You're a great songwriter, Ashley.
Performed by an artist with some buzz.
I think your songs could really sell.
You do not want me, but you want my songs? Ash, hear me out.
They want the next Pussycat Doll.
Bad ass, but commercial.
The whole package: voice, looks, rock solid dance moves.
Now I have this girl, she's great.
With her up front and your songs backing her up I don't know Trust me, you're going to love her.
Here she is.
Hey, gorgeous! This is the songwriter I was telling you about.
Ashley, meet Madison Duarte.
Am I being punk'd? Like anyone cares enough to punk'd you.
No offense.
Oh, and like you're the next big thing.
I thought JT did want your sexy back, back.
You know what Ash, I'm sorry that your trip to New York was a total fiasco, but I'm not so sure I want to be your next ragg she/gal pow.
Worried if would someone think that we kissed behind the bleachers? No, concerned your joke of a reputation would do damage, to mine.
So I'm guessing you two, know each other I can't believe you want to give my music to someone who up to a year ago, didn't even dance without a pompom.
You know, what Ethan?, this isn't what we're looking for.
I don't want songs by someone who stopped reading in the 5th grade.
Do not worry, you wouldn't understand them anyway.
They're about people.
With feelings.
You know what, it's really cute, that you are an artist and everything, but I live in the real world, not in my doll house loft, and I'm actually serious about making it.
Little contempt can do wonders for the creative process.
Loose my number.
Aiden, what are you doing? Mr.
Chon asked me to sweep out the ran gutter.
OK.
But be careful! I was thinking.
What would happen if I jumped? You would break your neck! Can you please just back up from the ledge? Ok I'm a dumpster dive I mean, people throw out some pretty good stuff, you know? Mattel palm mixed out with coffee grounds and ciggie butts But I thought you said that from the money you got from sketching tourists you Could like cover gasoline, food and stuff.
Mostly but I mean, I was just trying to be dramatic for your documentary.
Carmen, don't fake it, just Be yourself.
Whatever.
I'll just shut up.
You know, I eat fast food, ok? Is that cinemavetarian enough for you? She pushed you? - Did she hurt you? - No.
It was an accident.
Almost, but I really think that she changed.
Spence I don't want you mixed up with this girl.
I'm not dad.
I took care of it, and it was fine.
I mean, I am fine, but She is 17, and she was living out in her car and her mother is abusive Where is she now? - Staying at Ashley's.
- Ashley's OK.
I'll make some phone calls.
Thank you.
Special delivery for Ms.
Spencer Carlin.
Worthington.
Ladies and gentlemen, a drum roll please! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! - I got in! - You did? I'm off the waiting list! Worthington is such a great school! Yeah, well, Paula! UCLA is not too shabby either and that way you could keep living here.
Forever.
Thanks mom! But no thanks.
- I'm so proud of you! - Thank you.
- I gotta get back to Ashley's house! - Are you going to tell her the great news? I do not know, it makes her feel bad when I talk about college.
Yeah, well, she needs to be reminded that she should be thinking about her future too.
Well, she is.
She's just kind of in a sump right now.
Bye! I was so naive to think that he would actually want to produce some finger picking acoustic album with me.
No you weren't.
It sounded like yesterday, Ego went really well, and then he just, sneaked attacked you? He probably doesn't think that I'd tell him to make it on my own.
Hey, it's not true at all.
I got your message.
Do you want me to beat him off for you? Yes.
I'm so sorry I was so mean yesterday.
No, I'm sorry.
Got to get how Scary it must be to just, get on a stage and put it all out there.
If you just promise to include me in I promise not to in take my camera next time ok? There's not going to be a next time.
Ash, there still will be.
Look, what Ethan was proposing it's actually really awesome.
No! He wants Madison to sing my songs.
That's like J-Lo sing Tori Amos.
Yeah, but if Madison makes it, then she'll just be putting your name out there in a positive way! You don't get it.
They're mine.
I should be singing them.
Damn right! Totally it would be like is somebody bought my painting and try to sell them as their own.
That's not really the case.
I mean, Ashley, if you really care about your music And getting it out there, then this is a good thing.
Look, just don't be afraid.
You can do it.
- Hey - Hey - Thank you for coming.
- Thanks for calling.
I don't know why I gave you crap.
I just, wasn't expecting you.
Trust me, I wasn't expecting you either.
The truth is I feel really insecure about this whole thing with Ethan.
I worked so hard on the tour, and he seems like a good producer not a slizz boy like most of the guys I met on the road.
He's not a slizz.
He thinks you're pretty terrific.
- And I listened to your demo.
- Yeah? It's really good, Ashley.
- But I think we can - What? I just think we can lay in a little base and some of the songs were kind of high me.
That sucks.
Because I like them just the way they are.
- Forget it.
- Which is why.
I've been writing a new song specifically for you.
- Really? - Yes.
And I'm not sure where it's going yet but I'm telling that we're calling it "Life's a bitch and so am I.
" So, are all your songs autobiographical? Told I was writting that one for you.
Come, let me show you what I have.
I don't want to die, it's just You could have fallen off the roof and been seriously hurt.
Or I could have bounced off that pavement and walk away without a scratch.
If you keep talking like this I'm going to have to stage an intervention.
I'm not kidding.
Look, you didn't hear what Dr.
Carlin said.
What did she say? She said that there is no medical reason why I'm not very dead.
That it's a miracle that I'm still alive.
You know, which is all good until you get to an intersection like this.
Then you look at the cars, and you start thinking: If my being here is a miracle, what would happen or not happen if I moosed to cross this intersection, right now! You would get hit, obviously.
Yeah, but we'll never unless I step on this curve.
What is wrong with you? What, do you think I'm gonna get hurt? Did that hurt enough for you? You are not Superman, Aiden, you're just a guy who should be really, really happy that he's still here! Twice in the past year, you almost died.
And maybe it is luck.
Or maybe it's God.
But either way, you're here right now.
I mean, you have been given a gift.
And maybe you're here for some bigger purpose or whatever.
But maybe all of this happened just, so do you can appreciate what you do have.
So stop being so frivolous with your life.
What about my life is worth living? I can't sleep, I'm constantly panicked I'm some miracle.
To me you are.
- Hey.
- Hey! Ashley is just in the room.
She's looking for music with Madison.
- That's good news.
- Yeah.
They seem excited.
I also have some really good news.
I talk to my dad about you, and he found a place for you to stay in Venice.
Like, a foster home? Not exactly a foster home, it's more like Spencer.
I appreciate it.
I really do.
But I think I'm just going to stay here.
You mean here, here? Oh my gosh, we're possibly going to cut the best album ever.
It's going to be solid once we find the right songs.
Yeah, I'm gonna work on the album cover.
Oh my God, she already has Mad sketches.
That's great! I was actually just telling her that my dad found a place for her to stay.
We already talked about it and decided that she can just stay here for awhile.
Unless you want to go somewhere else.
No! - I am starving! - Ditto.
I thought we could hang over to the
