Spinning Out (2020) s01e02 Episode Script

Welcome to the Family

Oh, fuck! Jesus! What time is it? 4:30.
I can't believe you live in a hotel.
What do you do? Order anything you want.
Robe's in the closet.
Oh, and nice meeting you.
Is Kat really moving to London? Yeah, and I'm making tea for Harry and Meghan.
No, she'll come back.
She always comes back.
But how did you know that? I heard everything the other night.
Okay.
Milady.
What? You don't want it? I guess I'm just used to an egg and fruit.
- Well, yeah, I can get you that instead.
- No.
It's fine.
It's good.
Yeah.
Good? Hm-mm.
Good girl.
Hey.
So, what? Are you homeless now? Kinda got into a fight with my mom and moved out.
Guess it's a good thing you're going to London soon.
I mean, sucks for me, but at least you don't have to live in your sad, sad, sad, sad little car.
Except I'm staying.
- What? - I've decided I'm gonna live here.
In your car? In Idaho.
I'm gonna tell Justin I've changed my mind.
I'm going to skate with him.
What am I going to do? Be a waitress for the rest of my life? Without skating, I don't know who I am.
And if I wanna keep doing it, I need to be Justin's partner.
Just suck it up and deal.
Uh, what are you doing? I'm gonna tell him I wanna skate with him.
You can't go in there looking like a trash bag.
Most of my skating stuff's at my mom's, so I didn't have a chance to grab it between her screaming at me and telling me what a terrible person I am.
Well, I'm here now.
Let's go get it while it's still there.
We can make the first session if we gun it.
Whoo! Okay.
Get inside.
Serena! Your sister's back from London.
I'm gonna get my stuff.
Hi, Carol.
I'll get a bag.
You're back.
Go do your hair.
And close the door.
Jesus, Mom.
- Come on.
- Here.
- What the hell do you think you're doing? - I'm moving out.
Let me get my stuff.
- Your stuff? - Hey, Kat.
It's not your stuff unless you pay for it.
And you didn't.
I did.
It's my stuff.
And you're not taking my stuff out of my house.
Are you serious right now? Why do you always have to be such a fucking bitch, Carol? Oh What did you just say to me? Sorry.
I just always wanted to call you that.
This might be my only chance.
How the hell are you gonna pay your bills? That little waitressing job isn't gonna even begin to cover first month's rent.
I'll figure it out.
As long as I don't have to live with you.
Fine.
Fine.
Do what you want.
Just know you won't be allowed back in Serena's life as long as I have anything to do with it.
Come on.
We're gonna be late for the first session.
Let's go! Hang on.
What are you doing? You can't leave Rufus.
Mom already tried throwing them away, but she forgot that garbage days are on Tuesdays, so You should go before Mom finds her pellet gun.
You sure you're okay? This morning was actually really good.
Mom's psyched about introducing me to my coaching team.
Team? Yeah.
She has a new credit card, so now I have a jumps coach, a spin coach, a personal trainer, choreographer.
Mitch said he hired only the best for his little protégée.
That's what he calls you? Kat! Hurry the fuck up! I'll see you at the rink, okay? I'm fine.
I promise.
Okay.
I just don't trust the guy.
I don't know how else to explain it.
It's gonna be okay, babe.
Now that Serena and I are both senior ladies, we're gonna be training together all the time.
Lord, help me.
So, I'll make sure to keep an eye on her.
- Really? - I promise.
Right now, all you should be focusing on is getting back to the rink and skating with Justin.
Jesus, Jenn.
The last time I was late for the first session, my coach made me do 30 fucking laps around the rink.
Hold on, girl.
Whoo! I hope we're not too late for the session.
It's going to be great.
You're going to go talk to him.
It's Left, right, left What the fuck? - Oh? - Together, right.
Good.
It's pretty good.
When you go around in a circle, that's when you surface.
I mean, do people try to get in our way on this rink? It's like, move.
Jesus! Hey.
Can we talk? Yeah, sure.
I just need to talk to Justin alone, if that's okay.
It's not.
Hi.
I'm Jenn.
Leah, right? You're new.
Let me give you the tour.
Oh, my gosh.
Look who that is.
Can we talk outside? So you already have another partner? Wow.
It's been, like, a day.
I didn't realize you were in so much of a hurry.
I don't know.
I figured after you pushed me, screamed at me, and basically told me that you'd never ever skate with me that you would, in fact, never ever skate with me.
I'm not the most sensitive guy in the world, but I can pick up on a signal.
Well, I changed my mind.
Fuck, I gave up everything to do this.
Well, I guess you're shit outta luck, huh? Sorry.
Fine.
This was a mistake.
And, uh, yeah, I mean, it's pretty straightforward.
Uh Back there are the vending machines.
Not that you'll be needing them.
And that's the tour.
You're welcome.
- Thanks.
- Yup.
Oh, and, just so you know, my friend Kat was always supposed to skate with Justin, so I think it might be in your best interest to get the fuck out of her way.
You know, the way I heard it was she already had her chance.
And, unlike your friend, I have all my triple jumps.
So I think it's in my best interest to be the kind of partner Justin deserves.
Thanks for the tour.
Your face is a tour.
Fuck! - Hi.
- Hey.
They ran out of regular, so I got you Swiss hazelnut.
- Hm.
- Whatever the hell that is.
It could be a lot worse.
So She looks happy with her new team.
Yeah.
Um I just wanna make sure that Kat's behavior um hasn't influenced Serena's trial period.
I'm just so sorry about what happened the other night.
I can't believe she did that.
No, no, no.
Please, think nothing of it.
Yeah.
Kat's behavior is no reflection on Serena.
Okay, good.
- Thank you for being so understanding.
- No, of course.
And just know that I've set very strict boundaries for Kat.
And she knows not to interfere with Serena's training ever again.
No, I appreciate that.
It's important that Serena trusts me completely, without any distractions.
- Yeah, of course.
- Hm.
Okay.
- You okay? - Yeah, it's fine.
It's fine.
It's just stiff.
- Are you okay? - No, I'm not okay! What? What happened? Are you serious? What are you doing? - Leah, calm down.
- Leah, stop.
No, stop! You don't understand what's happening! It's not fair! I'm not gonna tolerate this! This is a joke! Three Macallans on the rocks, two G&Ts and a red beer.
A red beer? Seriously? - Hm-mm.
Tomato juice and - Light beer.
Otherwise known as horse piss with the foam farted off.
I guess the country cousin got invited to lunch today, huh? Yeah.
- You know that's my mom's drink? - Really? So when are you headed to London? I'm not.
Or maybe I am.
I mean, I'm not sure.
Had a fight with my mom, and now I have no place to stay.
So my life's a mess, and I'm completely fucked.
Aargh! Hey, Kat.
Kat, don't be upset, okay? I mean, get upset, if that's what you wanna do, but you can always just squat in the staff room.
One of the perks of being the manager is that I'm the only one with the key.
Look, nobody will know if it's only a few nights.
How much are you gonna judge me if I accept your offer? A lot.
I'm gonna judge you a lot.
Great.
Then I accept.
Great.
It's no red beer, but maybe it'll take the edge off.
Cheers.
Like a moth to a flame.
I need Kat for a second.
Actually more like an hour.
Let's go.
It's fine.
Okay.
Bye.
I know how you're gonna get Justin to skate with you.
All you have to do is land a triple toe right in front of his face.
That's all I have to do? Look, I've been watching Justin and Leah skate.
It's so obvious that he hates her, and she can't land a triple toe to save her life.
That was always your most consistent triple.
Until I stopped doing triple jumps.
- I haven't even tried one since - He wanted you first.
He only went to Leah when you stopped being an option.
Show him you're still an option.
Also, I hate Leah so much.
Seriously, like, so, so much.
You have to do it, okay? Come on! Let's go! It's fine.
Let's go.
And hand extension.
Lift! Excellent.
Tuck your right foot.
Very good.
And extend.
Very nice.
Okay, I really need Jenn! What the You're gonna tell me if Kat does her triple toe or freaks out and doesn't rotate.
So, basically, if she pops it? Yup.
No.
Damn it! And a Excellent.
And Justin, make sure you're What is she doing? Hey.
- Eyes here.
- Yeah.
So? She popped it like a million times.
Shit.
Grand plié.
Was that meant for me? Because, if so, I found it very, very sexy.
Shut up.
I know what you were trying to do out there.
- Do you? - Yeah.
Started to figure it out after the fifth failed attempt.
- Hm.
- Or was it the sixth? Ouch.
You know, it's actually my dad you'd have to impress, not me.
He's the one paying all the bills.
Well, how the hell do I do that? I wish I could tell ya 'cause I've never done it.
See you around.
All right, let's bow our heads.
Lord, we'd like to show our thanks for how quickly the clubhouse renovation is proceeding.
And thank you for these well-behaved boys that are keeping their hands to their damn selves.
And thank you for Reid finally passing algebra.
After all, C's get degrees, y'all.
And Lord, give Justin some god-like patience with his new, spirited partner.
Bless her little heart.
Amen.
Amen.
Spirited, huh? Everything all right with you and Leah? You haven't screwed things up with her yet, have you? Oh, I can assure you, darling, from what I've heard, Justin is definitely not the one at fault there.
Oh, yeah? What's going on? Leah's a handful.
- I think she's hot.
- Shut up, Reid.
- Shut up, Reid.
- Shut up, Reid.
Can you win with her? Yeah.
We've a shot at doing pretty well this season.
I wanna skate with Kat.
- Didn't she turn you down? - She changed her mind.
Well, that's too bad, isn't it? Because we already made a commitment to Leah and her mother.
And you said yourself you think you can win with her.
As far as I'm concerned, that's good business.
- But Dad, I'm telling you - I'm done talkin' about it, Justin.
Yes, sir.
Hi.
Are you coming to London or not? I can't.
Why? Kat, there's nothing keeping you there.
There's nothing for me in London, either.
Wow.
I think this has to be the end for us.
I'm sorry.
I Thanks.
How's it going? Find a place to stay? Yeah.
Kinda.
That's good, I guess.
So do you, like, know what you're doing, or have a plan or whatever? No.
No, not at all.
Maybe for the first time in my life, actually.
Must be weird.
Yeah.
It really is.
Look, I just needed to tell you no matter what happens, I need to keep seeing you, okay? - Being in your life - Look, Kat I don't mean to be a bitch, okay? But things have gotten a little less complicated at home since you left.
I don't know.
It's like Mom is in a good mood for once, which I never get to see.
So What does that mean? Maybe we should just take some space.
You know? Serena! You promised Mitch you would practice your off-ice double axel today.
Go on, sweetheart.
I'm sorry.
She just shouldn't be treating you like this, honey.
- Uh-uh.
- I know.
It's my fault.
I let her get away with too much.
We give everything to these kids, and they never thank us.
Karen Duncan and her daughter haven't spoken in ten years.
And that's after Karen took out a second mortgage on their house to pay for her ice time.
So sad.
All I have to say is thank God you still have Serena.
Yeah.
Kat, wait! Kat! Mom, don't.
- Wait! - Not today.
Kat! It's time for you to come back home.
Look I'm going back on my lithium anyway, so you don't have to worry that I'm gonna freak out at you, or whatever you think I did.
Come on, honey.
Let's just put this behind us.
I want you home.
And things are gonna get better, I promise.
No, they're not.
They will.
And this time it's gonna be different.
I'm gonna get better.
Except you're not.
You may have given me your disorder, but there is no way in hell I'm gonna end up like you.
And if I stay at home, I know I will.
Remember when you did that silly exhibition at the rink when you were 15? Jenn skated to "Blurred Lines.
" Serena chose "Let It Go," of course.
You decided on "A Midsummer Night's Dream.
" Not exactly a crowd-pleaser.
People stopped doing whatever they were doing just to watch you.
You were perfect.
The new favorite.
And now when I look at you, all I see is wasted potential.
You're right.
It was a great program.
Kat! What are you doing here, sweetheart? I wanna skate with Justin.
Look, I know Leah's been pair skating since she could walk, but but I'm a really fast learner, and I'm not a terrible person, so I have that over her already.
Justin told me his dad's the one I need to impress, and I have a plan to do that, but You told me I could come to you if I needed help, and I need help.
Baby, nothing I love more than to watch my son skate, but I have a construction meeting in 20 minutes.
You're the boss.
They can wait.
Now gimme those hands! Yes, you're good.
Your lines are good, but you need to start watching when you turn.
You're going too fast.
Whoo! You know the girl's basically skating for you.
So you wanted me to see how the two of them were progressing, huh? I lied? What is it with you and this girl? I don't know.
She reminds me of me at that age? Mands, Justin and Leah can win.
So can Justin and Kat.
When Dasha was first selling us on Kat, she promised she could get her where she needed to be.
She also said that she's the kind of skater that comes around once in a generation.
Darling, I think that's a risk worth taking.
I think you're wasting your time.
James! Look at me.
This is about your son's happiness.
This isn't one of your business deals.
I'll think about it.
Focus, Leah! Focus! Can't get enough of me, huh? No other reason to stay on your night off.
Don't flatter yourself.
I live here now.
Can't be a good sign.
I haven't heard anything.
They obviously don't deserve you if it's taking them this long to decide.
I mean, who are these fools? Am I crazy? Yes.
Seriously.
What kind of crazy person takes an insane risk like this instead of just jetting off to Europe with their perfectly nice boyfriend? I could've had a nice life with Dave.
You could've had a safe life with Dave.
That doesn't mean it would've been good.
And if I'm honest I can't say I'm sorry you broke up with that guy.
I can't.
I'm sorry.
I'm a mess, okay? I just - I can't right now.
- Yeah.
I hear you sleep in pub closet now.
Jesus! You sleep there because you're not on good terms with your mother, yes? How do you know? You know, in Soviet Union, I hear useful saying.
Rough translation: the malicious cow disturbs the whole herd.
You mean you think my mom's gonna turn everyone here against me? Thanks.
She already has.
No, I mean your mom is a cow.
I talked to James Davis this evening.
He was gonna call you, but I thought it's best to deliver the news myself.
You were the right choice all along.
And now, since you're Justin's partner, you come and live with me.
Much better than closet, I think.
Wait.
What? Yes! Well, welcome.
Be like at home.
Only don't use my toothpaste.
Is this you? Hm-mm.
Beautiful.
Is this your sister? No.
This way! This is my cat, Yoka.
Ah! What does that mean? Little fucker.
Oh.
You will take Little Fucker's room.
He's a stray cat also.
I promise I'll find a way to make rent.
Not necessary.
You stay with me as long as you need.
Thank you.
I can't tell you how grateful I am for all of this.
You look like shit.
I'll let you sleep in, and then I'll wake you up at 6:00 a.
m.
And we're gonna train.
We must train very hard to get to Nationals in just two years.
You really think we can? Hey.
Oh! Hey.
Thanks.
So, you excited to skate with Kat? - Anything's better than skating with Leah! - That's for fucking sure.
One of these.
For her.
- Make it a double.
- Gotcha.
So how's the hip? Uh, what do you mean? Come on.
You were limping today.
I saw it.
I mean it's a bitch, but I can't give up at this point in the game.
Maybe take a break.
If 16-year-olds with two good hips don't take breaks, I can't either.
Here you go.
- Thanks, Marcus.
- You already know.
Enjoy, all right? To the good life.
To the good life.
Bye.
I cannot wait for tomorrow, Mom.
Mitch is gonna have my choreographer come in early so we can talk about the music choices for my long program.
What are you looking at? Nothing, baby.
Actually, you know what? I'm really tired.
I'm gonna go to bed early.
Okay, honey.
Excuse me.
Oh, sorry.
Okay.
Okay.
So I wanna say something important.
So now it's going to be like learning to walk all over again.
It's good, huh? Katarina, can you just pretend to listen to me when I'm speaking? Sorry.
So before we begin, I have a surprise.
We're gonna win National with this.
- "Romeo and Juliet.
" - It's perfect.
It's Russian.
And it's also very romantic.
No one wants to see cute programs anymore.
It's about romance.
It's about tragedy.
It's about sex.
You know? All the good things.
Uh, works for me.
Kat? So now that is out of the way - we begin.
- Mitch, stop! Justin, assume the Kilian hold.
Uh-oh.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
It's the choreographer.
One moment.
Yes? That is never happening again.
Uh, what are you talking about? I'm sorry if I overreacted, but we are just partners.
Okay? That is never, ever happening again.
It was a year ago.
- Calm down.
- All right.
So now I am done.
We can begin.
Let's see how you skate together.
Ready? And left, right, left right, left, and left, right.
Excellent.
Right, left, right, left, right, left
