1. And who am i?
Copy !req
2. That's a secret
I'll never tell.
Copy !req
3. X.O.X.O., gossip girl.
Copy !req
4. ♪ you ask yourself ♪
♪ where do we go from here?
Copy !req
5. Rhodes records.
Rick rhodes' office.
Copy !req
6. Hi. Is he in?
Copy !req
7. It's Lily.
Copy !req
8. Who?
Copy !req
9. His daughter?
Copy !req
10. Oh. Ahem.
One moment, please.
Copy !req
11. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Copy !req
12. (Man) Hey, lil.
Long time, babe.
Copy !req
13. Hi, dad. I know,
um, which is why i was hoping
Copy !req
14. that we could, like,
catch up or something.
Copy !req
15. There's so much
to talk about.
Copy !req
16. Is there any way
that you can, uh, have lunch?
Copy !req
17. You're in L.A.? Why aren't you
in Santa Barbara?
Copy !req
18. In school?
Well, we can make it a dinner
if that's better for you.
Copy !req
19. Great. Okay, see you then.
Love you.
Copy !req
20. (Man) Mrs. bass?
Copy !req
21. We're here.
Copy !req
22. Oh, yes. Thank you.
Copy !req
23. Serena's been in jail
for over four hours.
Copy !req
24. She's already served more time
Copy !req
25. than Nicole Richie
and Lindsay Lohan combined.
Copy !req
26. She's a socialite mistakenly
accused of stealing a bracelet.
Copy !req
27. I doubt they're working her over
with the phone book.
Copy !req
28. When i called Lily,
she said she was on her way.
Copy !req
29. Where is she?
I just can't believe she had
her own daughter arrested.
Copy !req
30. I mean, who does that?
Someone
who's never been arrested.
Copy !req
31. Hello. I'm Lilian bass.
Copy !req
32. I'm here for my daughter,
Serena Van Der Woodsen.
Copy !req
33. So was Lily blown away?
Well, not really.
Copy !req
34. Yeah, he never actually, uh...
Proposed. Minor detail
in a proposal.
Copy !req
35. Uh, we haven't
seen him since.
- Ahem. Hey, dad.
Copy !req
36. Oh, so prom tomorrow night—
Copy !req
37. what do you say? We stay in,
watch some scary movies?
The scarier the better.
Copy !req
38. Absolutely.
- You guys are
the "gossip girl" generation.
Copy !req
39. Don't expect me to believe
you're not interested
Copy !req
40. in this gossip.
Uh, nope. Only interested
in my nim chow.
Copy !req
41. So to add to the Lily intrigue—
or possibly help explain it—
Copy !req
42. i got a weird call
about your investment.
Copy !req
43. The money's gone. It's over.
Really? 'Cause, uh, Serena had
a plan to get it all back.
Copy !req
44. It's—
no, Lily had
a plan of her own.
Copy !req
45. What?
- W-why?
Copy !req
46. I suggest you kids
stay out of it.
Copy !req
47. Let these Van Der Woodsen women
fight it out themselves.
Copy !req
48. Wow.
Copy !req
49. You forced me to do this. I just
hope you learned your lesson.
Copy !req
50. That my mom's crazier
than i ever imagined?
Copy !req
51. Well, no crazier than you,
my daughter,
Copy !req
52. thinking you could fix
this situation yourself.
I was fixing this,
Copy !req
53. but then you were too worried
what people would think.
When you're a mother,
Copy !req
54. you will understand
that you have to make decisions
Copy !req
55. that don't always win you
points for popularity.
Copy !req
56. When I'm a mother,
i will be nothing like you.
Copy !req
57. Yes, you say that now,
but just wait.
Copy !req
58. I would rather give my kids
up for adoption
Copy !req
59. than end up like you.
Copy !req
60. Oh, wait. You did that.
Copy !req
61. I came down here
Copy !req
62. to drop the charges
and put this behind us.
Copy !req
63. Please show a little respect,
and i will stick with my plan.
Copy !req
64. I'll just stick to mine.
Copy !req
65. If you didn't notice,
you weren't my phone call.
Oh, so who was?
Copy !req
66. She called me, darling.
Copy !req
67. Ironic, isn't it?
Copy !req
68. If only she knew.
Copy !req
69. Hey, grandma.
Copy !req
70. For those who complain about
the youth of today,
Copy !req
71. if you think we're bad,
Copy !req
72. you should've seen
our parents.
Copy !req
73. I don't care how much
ahmet wants to give him.
Copy !req
74. The guy can't sing.
Copy !req
75. I'll pay for his publishing.
Good-bye.
Copy !req
76. Hey, beautiful.
You get lost?
Copy !req
77. I'm sorry I'm late.
I couldn't find parking.
Copy !req
78. That's what the valet's for.
Right, but it also costs $2,
and i just spent that on gas.
Copy !req
79. Here to hit dad up
for some cash?
- What?
Copy !req
80. - No.
Copy !req
81. So, um, Christmas was weird
without you.
Copy !req
82. You know how important
the fourth quarter is to retail.
Copy !req
83. Somebody's gotta keep
tower records in business.
Copy !req
84. But i was sorry
i couldn't be there.
Copy !req
85. Yeah... um, about that...
Copy !req
86. I'm not a headshrinker
or anything,
Copy !req
87. but i do think
the sudden uprooting
Copy !req
88. of my family from New York,
Copy !req
89. coupled with my parents'
tumultuous divorce
Copy !req
90. may have contributed
to some recent difficulties
Copy !req
91. that i might be having.
You got kicked out
of boarding school.
Copy !req
92. What? Wait, wait.
How did you know that?
She told me.
Copy !req
93. Mom.
Copy !req
94. Hello, Lily.
- What are you doing here?
Copy !req
95. If it was up to your father,
Copy !req
96. they'd stop me
at the county line,
Copy !req
97. but Santa Barbara's really
only a prison in my mind,
good to see you, Cece.
Copy !req
98. You didn't even give me
a chance to explain.
Copy !req
99. That's because
he would have to parent,
Copy !req
100. and we know he always leaves
"bad cop" to me.
Copy !req
101. Punishing loved ones just comes
so much more naturally
Copy !req
102. to some people.
Excuse me. May i have
a gin and tonic? No tonic.
Copy !req
103. I come with some good news.
Copy !req
104. You're letting me
live with dad? No way.
Copy !req
105. That's exactly what i was gonna
say. My bags are in the car.
Copy !req
106. And can i have the room that
overlooks the tennis courts?
Copy !req
107. I love that room. Thank you for
coming all the way down here,
Copy !req
108. mom, but i think this is
all worked out, right?
Richard?
Copy !req
109. Lily, that sounds so good.
It's just—
Copy !req
110. actually, your father did make
a call to the school.
Copy !req
111. I told 'em what had been
happening at home,
Copy !req
112. about your sister taking off,
your mother and i splitting up.
Copy !req
113. I explained that it was
Copy !req
114. an isolated, uncharacteristic
act of rebellion.
Copy !req
115. They're willing to turn your
expulsion into a suspension.
- What?
Copy !req
116. You can be back on Monday.
But i wanted to get expelled.
Copy !req
117. Lily, whatever for?
That school has everything.
Copy !req
118. Everything except for dad.
Copy !req
119. You're living
this amazing new life here,
Copy !req
120. and I'm just scared that
by the time i graduate,
Copy !req
121. i won't be
a part of it anymore.
Copy !req
122. And what if you forget
about me?
Copy !req
123. Lil, you do not have
to ever worry about that.
Copy !req
124. I just have a lot going on
right now with work.
Copy !req
125. I can't give you the time,
the—the supervision
Copy !req
126. that you need.
Just like clockwork.
Copy !req
127. Okay.
Copy !req
128. Dad.
Copy !req
129. I'm late. I've gotta pack,
get to the airport.
Copy !req
130. Put lunch on my account.
I'll talk to you soon.
Dad, no.
Copy !req
131. Why do you always
have to do that?
Copy !req
132. Dad.
Copy !req
133. Thank you.
Copy !req
134. Please don't walk away.
Copy !req
135. You need to be
with your mother, lil,
Copy !req
136. out of the city, in school.
Copy !req
137. We can't let you turn out
like your sister.
Copy !req
138. Carol? Yeah, i think we can
all agree on that front.
Copy !req
139. She ran away from our family,
and for what?
Copy !req
140. To become an actress, which is
a completely unrealistic goal.
Copy !req
141. I mean, yeah, she was
pretty good as Abigail
Copy !req
142. in "the crucible," but what was
that, like, 11th grade?
Copy !req
143. Anyway, the point is—
is I'm not Carol.
Copy !req
144. I don't crave adventure
or the freedom
Copy !req
145. to walk my own path.
I'm perfectly comfortable
Copy !req
146. with the path that you guys
have laid out for me.
Go home, lil.
Copy !req
147. Dad, you have a giant house.
I won't be any trouble.
Copy !req
148. I'll call you
when i get back from London.
Copy !req
149. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
150. I love you.
Copy !req
151. Lily, it's over.
Copy !req
152. Let's go home.
Copy !req
153. I'll follow you back.
Copy !req
154. See you at home.
Copy !req
155. Eric and i had
the most invigorating walk
Copy !req
156. from the hotel.
You know, grandma is
deceptively quick.
Copy !req
157. Oh, she's probably racing back
to that bottle of gin
Copy !req
158. she has hidden under the sink
in the bathroom.
- Zing.
Copy !req
159. Good morning to you as well.
What are you doing here,
mother?
Copy !req
160. I don't remember inviting you
as our guest.
Copy !req
161. I know i haven't called you,
and I'm positive you haven't
Copy !req
162. so much as received
a Christmas card
Copy !req
163. or fruitcake at the holiday.
Well, you can be thankful
for the last one.
Copy !req
164. Maybe telling Rufus
about our child?
Copy !req
165. I'm sorry
if i thought it appropriate
Copy !req
166. that Rufus learns he has a son.
Copy !req
167. Uh, you mean "had."
Copy !req
168. He died.
Copy !req
169. Oh.
Copy !req
170. I had no idea.
Copy !req
171. Imagine, something you don't
know. Now if you'll excuse me,
Copy !req
172. I'm going to take Serena
breakfast in bed
Copy !req
173. Serena's not in her room.
What? I thought she was coming
home with you. Where is she?
Copy !req
174. Why are you still in jail?
Copy !req
175. It's my choice.
Copy !req
176. Oh, god. You're not
gonna come out of there
Copy !req
177. to make my own decisions,
so i decided to stay in jail,
Copy !req
178. and I'm not leaving
Copy !req
179. until she agrees to let me
live my own life.
So it's a war of attrition.
Copy !req
180. So to speak.
Copy !req
181. Except she gets to wage the war
from the comfort
Copy !req
182. like you always planned
Copy !req
183. in that scrapbook
that you kept under your bed.
Copy !req
184. Please.
I don't remember that.
Copy !req
185. I was a child then.
Copy !req
186. I should go. I don't want
to abuse my phone privileges.
Copy !req
187. The fact that you're
on an actual pay phone
Copy !req
188. has me beyond nauseous.
Copy !req
189. Stay strong, s.
Copy !req
190. What's this for?
Strength. You will need.
Copy !req
191. I have good news and bad news.
Which do you want?
Copy !req
192. Good news first, always.
Copy !req
193. There is replacement.
What are you talking about?
Copy !req
194. It makes more sense
if you pick bad news first.
Copy !req
195. Your dress for prom.
Copy !req
196. The dry cleaners—
they ruined it.
Copy !req
197. This body bag.
Corpse not pretty.
Copy !req
198. But there's a replacement.
Back to good news.
Copy !req
199. This morning it arrived
from Paris.
Copy !req
200. Just like in scrapbook.
Copy !req
201. Oh! It is.
Copy !req
202. Oh! Just like my scrapbook
i don't remember keeping
Copy !req
203. and haven't looked at
since i was an early adolescent.
Copy !req
204. Oh, i-it must be from daddy.
Copy !req
205. Tonight is
going to be magical.
Copy !req
206. You know, prom hasn't exactly
been going as planned.
Copy !req
207. The florists lost
Blair's corsage.
Copy !req
208. Someone bought up
all the peonies,
Copy !req
209. and when i called
to confirm my limo,
Copy !req
210. Yeah, well, my hotel room
was mysteriously canceled,
Copy !req
211. and now i just found out
Blair's dress has been ruined.
How tragic.
Copy !req
212. I gotta ask...
Copy !req
213. Am i sabotaging
your dream prom?
Copy !req
214. The answer is no,
Nathaniel.
Copy !req
215. And i don't know
how many times
Copy !req
216. we need to have
this conversation.
Copy !req
217. Blair is yours.
Copy !req
218. Okay.
Copy !req
219. Oh, what a restorative nap
that was.
Copy !req
220. I feel so much better.
Copy !req
221. Well, I'm afraid that moment
is not going to last.
Copy !req
222. Eric out of earshot?
I sent him to a movie
with Jonathan.
Copy !req
223. So no one can hear me scream.
You're gonna what, Lily,
Copy !req
224. gonna ask you to leave my home
and never come back.
Copy !req
225. "Never" is a, uh,
very long time, darling.
Copy !req
226. You are toxic.
Copy !req
227. I'm your mother.
And a memorable one at that,
so much so it seems
Copy !req
228. that try as i might,
i can't help turning into you.
Well, maybe that's 'cause
Copy !req
229. you finally are starting
to see the wisdom of my ways.
Copy !req
230. You blame me for everything.
And you accept responsibility
for nothing.
Copy !req
231. You know,
maybe Carol's right.
Copy !req
232. The only way to have a normal
life is without you in it.
Your sister was rebellious
Copy !req
233. and ungrateful for my love,
and look where she ended up.
Copy !req
234. From where I'm sitting,
it doesn't look so bad.
Copy !req
235. I don't want you meddling
Copy !req
236. with my family
or with my love life anymore.
Copy !req
237. I want you out. Now.
Copy !req
238. Hi. I'm looking for
my sister Carol. Carol rhodes.
Copy !req
239. Uh, i think that
she works here. Is she in?
Copy !req
240. I'm covering four extra tables
today, so that'd be no.
Copy !req
241. Flaking on work—
that seems like Carol.
Copy !req
242. Do you know
where she might be?
Copy !req
243. Hey! Watch
where you're going, spaz.
Copy !req
244. You almost got udon
all over my Gucci.
Copy !req
245. Personally, i don't see it.
Copy !req
246. See what?
Copy !req
247. The family resemblance.
To Carol?
Wait. You know her?
Copy !req
248. Yeah.
Copy !req
249. Well, do you know
where she might be?
Copy !req
250. Trying to work here.
Well, you missed a spot.
Copy !req
251. It's kinda sticky.
Copy !req
252. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
253. I've had a really rough day.
I got kicked out of school,
Copy !req
254. my dad doesn't want me
to live with him,
Copy !req
255. i can't stand my mom, i spent
the last $9 that i had on gas,
Copy !req
256. and so now I'm broke
and I'm homeless,
Copy !req
257. and unless i can find my sister,
who i basically
Copy !req
258. haven't talked to
in, like, a year,
Copy !req
259. I'm gonna have to become
a prostitute.
Copy !req
260. And i don't even know how
to be a prostitute.
Copy !req
261. I mean, really,
how much small talk is required?
Copy !req
262. And—and where do you even go?
And are b.J.S a must?
Copy !req
263. Because if that's the case,
i am so not doing that.
Copy !req
264. Not that any of that information
is relevant
Copy !req
265. unless you're a John.
Not a John. Owen.
Copy !req
266. Lily.
Copy !req
267. There's a gig
at the 6-0-7 tonight.
Copy !req
268. Chances are your sister
will be there.
Copy !req
269. My friend's kinda dating her.
If you wanna go...
Copy !req
270. On a double date?
With a guy
Copy !req
271. that i just met five minutes
ago? You could be a psycho.
Copy !req
272. My shift ends in ten.
Probably see your sister.
Copy !req
273. Don't want to come,
I'll give her your regards
Copy !req
274. and summarize the whole,
uh, prostitute thing.
Copy !req
275. I could change.
Copy !req
276. I have my suitcase
in the car.
Copy !req
277. Yeah. I'm just guessing,
Copy !req
278. but i don't think
that's gonna work.
Copy !req
279. You should try
something like this.
Copy !req
280. Your sister's always changing
for auditions and stuff.
Copy !req
281. Wow.
Copy !req
282. She's really changed.
Copy !req
283. I can't believe
that she has this.
Copy !req
284. We went ice skating
at rockefeller center.
Copy !req
285. She snuck me
out of the house.
Copy !req
286. We took a bus across town.
My mom was so furious.
Copy !req
287. It was so much fun.
Copy !req
288. We were, like,
Copy !req
289. best friends.
Copy !req
290. You can go now.
Already out the door.
Copy !req
291. Oh, hello, Daniel.
Copy !req
292. Hey. So, uh, look, I'm really
sorry to bother you,
Copy !req
293. but i can't leave Serena
one more message
Copy !req
294. and still call myself a man.
Copy !req
295. Not that it's exactly manly
to be calling her "mother,"
Copy !req
296. but i-i-i-i
really need to know,
Copy !req
297. uh, how mad is she?
Copy !req
298. Oh, i-i wouldn't worry.
Copy !req
299. She hasn't gotten
your messages.
Copy !req
300. They take your cell phone away
when you're in jail.
Copy !req
301. Wait.
Copy !req
302. She's—she's still in jail?
Copy !req
303. Hey. I think i need
a dress for prom.
Copy !req
304. Okay. But you're gonna
have to wear your own shoes.
Copy !req
305. get out, perv!
- Sorry.
Copy !req
306. You're taking long enough.
Copy !req
307. Do i looks like
I'm wearing a Halloween costume?
Copy !req
308. No.
Copy !req
309. You look good.
Copy !req
310. Is this the moment where
you fall in love with me?
Copy !req
311. Oh, it is, isn't it?
Copy !req
312. You're totally falling in love
with me right now.
Are you coming or not?
Copy !req
313. hello. I'd like to drop
Copy !req
314. the charges against
Serena Van Der Woodsen.
Copy !req
315. but your daughter's gone.
Copy !req
316. wow, you're, like,
really popular around here.
Copy !req
317. Yeah, when you don't have
a lot of family at home,
Copy !req
318. it's kinda cool, right?
Copy !req
319. Sure. Yeah, cool place
to catch hepatitis.
Copy !req
320. Owen!
Copy !req
321. Missed our set, man!
It was awesome.
Copy !req
322. It was like...
It was wicked! Ha ha!
Shep, hey.
Copy !req
323. Hey, who's the Betty?
This your new girl?
- No.
Copy !req
324. I have a plan. Actually,
you know, it's more than a plan.
Copy !req
325. It's a mission.
But it's not just about me.
Copy !req
326. It's about my lady.
She's been wronged,
Copy !req
327. and I'm gonna make it right.
Copy !req
328. What did they do to your lady,
tattoo the wrong butt cheek?
Randy Walter Sheppard!
Copy !req
329. My 20s are ticking away
as we speak,
Copy !req
330. and we gotta go now!
Copy !req
331. Carol!
- Carol?
Copy !req
332. Lily?
Copy !req
333. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
334. She's your lady?
- Kind of.
Copy !req
335. No! Lily, oh, my god.
It's so good to see you.
Copy !req
336. How do you know Owen? I'm so
sorry i haven't written more
Copy !req
337. or called, like, ever.
Are you totally mad?
Copy !req
338. Wait. What are you doing
in L.A.? Is something wrong?
Copy !req
339. Is everything okay?
Yeah. No, not really.
I have—i have to talk to you
Copy !req
340. but right now i have to handle
something, and it cannot wait.
I know.
Copy !req
341. Neither can this.
We'll talk in the car.
Copy !req
342. To the impala.
To the what? Where?
Copy !req
343. Oh, my god.
Look at this place.
Copy !req
344. I've always tried
to make my life
Copy !req
345. resemble the movie in my head,
Copy !req
346. and tonight, no effort required.
Voilà!
Copy !req
347. Vote for prom king and queen?
Copy !req
348. We don't do prom queen.
That's for suburban schools
Copy !req
349. and the lame teen comedies
that are set at them.
Copy !req
350. We're doing it this year.
There's a tiara and everything.
Copy !req
351. A tiara?
Copy !req
352. But if you don't want
to vote for yourselves...
Copy !req
353. We were nominated.
Let's see.
Copy !req
354. I mean, of course we were.
Copy !req
355. Yeah, if you do this stuff
in college,
Copy !req
356. people think
you're pathological.
Copy !req
357. Come on, ladies.
Let's commit election fraud.
Copy !req
358. I can't wait
to see Blair's face
Copy !req
359. when she loses prom queen
to Nelly.
Copy !req
360. And look, i-i know
this thing with your mom
Copy !req
361. took on a life of its own,
but i just want to say
Copy !req
362. that I'm sorry for starting it
in the first place.
It was just really upsetting
Copy !req
363. that—that you went to her
without giving me a warning.
Copy !req
364. I know, and normally i would
never do something like this,
Copy !req
365. And when she said that she was
gonna take care of it,
Copy !req
366. i never imagined that
you'd end up incarcerated.
The most frustrating part is
Copy !req
367. she thinks she did
take care of it.
Copy !req
368. Hey, soldier,
eyes up front.
Copy !req
369. Well, I'm, uh, I'm glad
you let me bail you out
Copy !req
370. or let me call Cece to,
'cause missing your prom
Copy !req
371. Thank you for—for getting me
to see that,
Copy !req
372. and thank you for
breaking the cycle of crazy.
Copy !req
373. So what happened to the beemer
that mom and dad got you?
Copy !req
374. Oh, i sold it.
Copy !req
375. For this?
Copy !req
376. As if.
I gave it to this guy.
Copy !req
377. He had
this really amazing idea.
Copy !req
378. It goes around your waist
like a belt
Copy !req
379. so you can put stuff in it,
like a purse.
Copy !req
380. Wow. That's
a really sound investment.
Copy !req
381. What's that supposed to mean?
Copy !req
382. Nothing. Nothing.
Copy !req
383. It just—your life isn't
exactly how you described.
Copy !req
384. You told mom that you were
making it out in L.A.
Copy !req
385. I am making it. This is
what making it looks like...
Copy !req
386. Before you've totally made it.
Copy !req
387. Carol, I've always thought
Copy !req
388. that you were
really, really talented.
Copy !req
389. It's just—
is it really worth...
Copy !req
390. Living your life,
you know...
Copy !req
391. Like this?
- Well, it's not forever.
Copy !req
392. Not once we get
shep's music video on mtv.
Copy !req
393. I'm totally the star. A music
video equals national exposure.
Copy !req
394. It's the birth
of a new art form.
Really? Shep's band?
Copy !req
395. Okay, i know you probably
wouldn't think so
Copy !req
396. having met shep, but they're
actually kinda great.
Copy !req
397. Well, if they're so great,
then why don't you
Copy !req
398. give their demo to dad?
Because he's dad,
and I'm doing this on my own.
Copy !req
399. Listen, don't
tell anybody about who we are.
Copy !req
400. Especially them.
- Why do you care
what they think?
Copy !req
401. People treat you differently.
Copy !req
402. Yeah, better.
Copy !req
403. Wow. Could you
sound any more like mom?
Copy !req
404. Of course i sound like mom.
Copy !req
405. She's the only female role model
I've had since you bailed on us.
Copy !req
406. Hey.
Copy !req
407. I think we're here.
Copy !req
408. I never wanted
to be like my mother.
Copy !req
409. I wanted to be open to life
and—and fearless
Copy !req
410. and not always thinking three
steps ahead—and consequences
Copy !req
411. and what would people say
or what would my father think.
Copy !req
412. Well, you have,
for the most part,
Copy !req
413. with a few notable exceptions.
Copy !req
414. That beautiful dinner
you made—
Copy !req
415. you were gonna propose,
weren't you?
Copy !req
416. But you didn't.
Copy !req
417. Because what i did to Serena
made you fundamentally question
Copy !req
418. the kind of person that i am.
You're unpredictable,
that's for sure.
Copy !req
419. When i was younger,
that was damn exciting.
Copy !req
420. You were
always surprising me.
Copy !req
421. I'm just doomed to repeat
my mother's mistakes.
Copy !req
422. Why do you always
have to do that?
Copy !req
423. Dad, wait.
Please don't walk away.
Copy !req
424. Our mistakes are ours alone
to repeat... or correct.
Copy !req
425. I should forgive Serena
for defying me.
Copy !req
426. She needs electroshock therapy.
You've got good reason
to be angry with her—
Copy !req
427. those messed up values
she passed on to you.
I'll follow you back.
Copy !req
428. Until you let it go,
Copy !req
429. how can you move forward
with your own daughter?
Copy !req
430. Cece's never gonna change,
lil.
Copy !req
431. But you still can.
Copy !req
432. Thank you, Rufus.
Copy !req
433. I'm glad we can talk,
but as for everything else,
Copy !req
434. i just don't know
where we stand right now.
Copy !req
435. Even after 20 years,
Copy !req
436. you're still not sure
who i am.
Copy !req
437. It's not that I'm not sure.
Copy !req
438. It's just, i think
you're still figuring it out.
Copy !req
439. Ah.
Copy !req
440. and she sticks the landing.
Copy !req
441. So is information
on this mission
Copy !req
442. revealed
on a need-to-know basis?
Copy !req
443. Because i really need to know.
Carol.
Copy !req
444. The so-called director
of our music video
Copy !req
445. took our money
and then jacked up his fee,
Copy !req
446. and now he's holding
our video hostage,
Copy !req
447. doesn't mean
he's above the law.
Copy !req
448. No Richie rich film school kid
rips off me and my girl.
Shep, I'm not your girl.
Copy !req
449. Right. She's—
she's more like my muse.
Copy !req
450. Oh, sweet hand towels.
Copy !req
451. So are we, like,
breaking and entering?
Copy !req
452. Seriously?
- The window was unlocked,
Copy !req
453. so really,
it's just... entering.
Copy !req
454. And i thought investing
in purse belts was a bad idea.
Thanks, Lily.
Copy !req
455. Since i know how much
you love following the rules,
Copy !req
456. why don't you just stay here,
far away from the party,
Copy !req
457. where people are
actually having fun?
Copy !req
458. Owen, can you keep an eye
on her?
Copy !req
459. What? Just because my idea
of a good time
Copy !req
460. isn't getting arrested for
breaking into some guy's house,
Copy !req
461. I'm automatically
a stuck-up goody two-shoes?
Copy !req
462. It doesn't exactly make you
the life of the party.
Copy !req
463. Where's the bar?
Copy !req
464. I think it's this way.
Copy !req
465. You made it!
Yeah! There was
a last minute change of plans.
Copy !req
466. Yeah, i sprung her
out of the pokey.
Copy !req
467. so consider yourself repaid.
Have fun.
Copy !req
468. So, you know,
Copy !req
469. not that i imagined, uh,
much about my time at prom,
Copy !req
470. but, um... it measures up.
Copy !req
471. Did you ever imagine yourself
dancing at prom?
Copy !req
472. That i did.
- Well, i am here
to make dreams come true.
Copy !req
473. Come dance with me.
Bailing you out of prison
Copy !req
474. and dancing with you at prom
in one night? That's...
Copy !req
475. Yeah, I'm here
to make things interesting.
Copy !req
476. Hey,
Van Der Woodsen, you want some?
Copy !req
477. Hey, Keith!
Copy !req
478. Surprised to see me?
Copy !req
479. Carol. Hey.
Copy !req
480. Wow. You, uh,
Copy !req
481. you look amazing.
Copy !req
482. Really? Even more amazing than
in the video you won't give us?
Copy !req
483. Look, I'm sorry about that.
I just, uh,
Copy !req
484. i couldn't think of any other
way to get you to call me
Copy !req
485. so i could explain—
you have a girlfriend.
Nothing else to explain.
Copy !req
486. I just want the video.
Copy !req
487. Hey. Who is this?
Copy !req
488. Is she available?
Copy !req
489. Nah, man.
Copy !req
490. Nah, she, uh,
she was just leaving.
Copy !req
491. No, i wasn't.
Copy !req
492. oh!
Copy !req
493. oh, is this the moment
where you fall in love with me?
Copy !req
494. It is, isn't it?
Copy !req
495. You're totally falling
in love with me right now.
Copy !req
496. Spare me, Keith!
Copy !req
497. This is low,
even for you.
Copy !req
498. I can't believe you did this,
Chuck.
Copy !req
499. You know how important
prom is to me!
Blair, what's wrong?
Copy !req
500. I caught him with these.
They're all marked
Copy !req
501. with Nelly yuki's name.
He's sabotaging me.
Copy !req
502. My missing corsage, my dress,
the limo and hotel?
Copy !req
503. Our relationship's
changed now.
Copy !req
504. You can pay me
the balance in cash
Copy !req
505. or... i don't know...
Copy !req
506. What are you doing
Saturday?
Copy !req
507. Gross. My sister
would never sleep with you.
Copy !req
508. Yeah, 'cause she's dating me.
Copy !req
509. Shep, we're not dating.
We were never dating.
Copy !req
510. Well, both of you don't know
Carol very well,
Copy !req
511. 'cause, yeah,
she totally slept with me.
Copy !req
512. Pretty fun, too.
Copy !req
513. and i broke it off
as soon as i found out.
Copy !req
514. But what he wants
to charge us?
Copy !req
515. Might as well be
a million bucks.
Copy !req
516. And i know you probably think
i should ask mom and dad
Copy !req
517. for the money, but...
Copy !req
518. Whatever. I'll think
of something. It's fine.
Copy !req
519. No, Carol. It's not fine.
Copy !req
520. Hi. I'm Lily rhodes,
and that's my sister,
Copy !req
521. and no one treats us
this way.
Copy !req
522. Okay. We already called
the cops, so...
Copy !req
523. You guys are trespassing.
Copy !req
524. It's cool, okay?
We're done here.
Copy !req
525. Finally.
Copy !req
526. Take the trash
back to the valley.
Copy !req
527. What did you just say?
What did you just say?
Copy !req
528. Don't you have
anything better to do,
Copy !req
529. like get your butt tattooed?
Copy !req
530. The only tattoo I'm getting
tonight is your face on my fist.
Copy !req
531. Ladies, come on.
No need to fight over me.
Copy !req
532. Okay. Okay.
Copy !req
533. How about we just fight you?
Copy !req
534. (Boy) I got him.
Lily. Come on.
Copy !req
535. Where do you think
you're going?
Copy !req
536. Carol!
Copy !req
537. - Aah!
Copy !req
538. Oh! Hey! Leave him alone!
Aah!
Copy !req
539. Oh!
Copy !req
540. Students, if i could have
your attention, please.
Copy !req
541. For the first time ever
at constance,
Copy !req
542. our prom queen is...
Copy !req
543. I can't believe you're not
even defending yourself.
Copy !req
544. Lie to my face!
Blame someone! Something!
Copy !req
545. I'm sorry. Just one moment.
Copy !req
546. Seriously?
I know how to count.
Copy !req
547. Our prom queen is...
Copy !req
548. Blair Waldorf.
Copy !req
549. But that's impossible!
Copy !req
550. Oh, my god. I won.
Copy !req
551. This is my moment.
Copy !req
552. I own prom.
Copy !req
553. And our king—
Copy !req
554. Nate Archibald.
Copy !req
555. Oh, my gosh!
Copy !req
556. This is so great!
Copy !req
557. Thank you!
Copy !req
558. Oh. Thanks.
Copy !req
559. Thank you, everyone.
Copy !req
560. Oh, i can't believe Blair won.
Yeah,
who even voted for her?
Copy !req
561. Me. About 150 times.
Copy !req
562. I wasn't putting
the Nelly yuki ballots in.
Copy !req
563. I was taking them out.
But what about what she said
you did to her limo
Copy !req
564. and hotel and her corsage?
Her new dress looks better
without it.
Copy !req
565. Give this to her.
Copy !req
566. It's to the penthouse
at the Plaza.
Copy !req
567. You didn't think
you were the only one
Copy !req
568. who knew about
the scrapbook, did you?
Copy !req
569. Chuck, I...
Copy !req
570. I can't believe
I'm saying this, but...
Copy !req
571. That was really sweet.
Copy !req
572. I just wanted to make sure
she had the perfect night.
Copy !req
573. Your 2009 king and queen!
Copy !req
574. Aw, who knew the mother-chucker
Copy !req
575. could also play
fairy godmother?
Copy !req
576. But if c. Just made
b.'S dreams come true,
Copy !req
577. why does it feel like
Copy !req
578. our queen is standing
with the wrong king?
Copy !req
579. You can't use the one
Copy !req
580. you already have on file?
Copy !req
581. Wait. Let me
at least fix my makeup.
Copy !req
582. Are you ready
to do the workout?
Copy !req
583. Yeah!
Beginner's workout. Stand with
your feet a little more...
Copy !req
584. Jail?
Copy !req
585. You're in jail?
Copy !req
586. I'd leave you in there, teach
you a lesson. You ran away.
Copy !req
587. Oh, Lily, the hopes and dreams
i have for you—
Copy !req
588. an Ivy league education,
life on the Upper East Side,
Copy !req
589. married to the richest man
in Manhattan.
Copy !req
590. See, that's the thing, mom—
Copy !req
591. those are your hope
and your dreams, not mine.
Copy !req
592. I need to figure out what—
what i want, what i need.
Copy !req
593. Like a parole officer?
I'm getting in the car.
Copy !req
594. You need to be far away
from your sister's influence.
Copy !req
595. Why? What's wrong with Carol?
The fact that she's independent?
Copy !req
596. That she thinks for herself?
That she does what she wants
Copy !req
597. and not what other people
tell her to do?
Copy !req
598. How about your spare me
the heartache
Copy !req
599. and yourself the humiliation
Copy !req
600. and give up on this failed
experiment in rebellion?
Copy !req
601. What if this is not
an experiment?
Copy !req
602. What about if this
is me growing up?
Copy !req
603. Enough soul searching. I'm
calling your father's lawyer.
Copy !req
604. We need to keep this thing
out of the papers.
Copy !req
605. Please, mom,
i don't need a publicist.
Copy !req
606. I need my mother.
Copy !req
607. I'm trying to talk to you here,
and you're not...
Copy !req
608. Hey, mom. Got a sec?
Copy !req
609. Carol.
Copy !req
610. This is your chance
Copy !req
611. to be a big sister
Copy !req
612. and finally offer some actual
guidance to Lily, advice.
Copy !req
613. Her future's at stake.
Copy !req
614. Which is why she needs
to be far away from you.
Copy !req
615. This is how it's going to be,
mom.
Copy !req
616. Lily's staying with me
for a while.
- Carol, just be reasonable.
Copy !req
617. We both know the first time
that she breaks a nail,
Copy !req
618. rides a city bus—
Copy !req
619. or god forbid—actually steps
foot in a public school,
Copy !req
620. she'll come running home.
Well, that's really up to Lily,
now isn't it?
Copy !req
621. Just tell her to—to sit tight.
I'm coming for her.
Copy !req
622. No, mom. You sit tight.
She'll call you later.
Copy !req
623. Oh, goodness.
Copy !req
624. Mother. Mom.
Copy !req
625. Don't tell me you're
chasing me out of town.
Copy !req
626. I'm fleeing as fast as i can.
Copy !req
627. Well, please stop.
I'm not going to apologize,
Copy !req
628. but i love you,
and i know you love me.
Copy !req
629. Well, of course i love you,
Copy !req
630. my daughters,
my grandchildren.
Copy !req
631. My only motivation is love.
On the contrary.
Copy !req
632. Your motives are quite suspect,
selfish even.
Copy !req
633. And you haven't always done
what's best for me.
Copy !req
634. Well, I've done
the very best i could.
Copy !req
635. You think Serena's a handful?
Copy !req
636. I would rather have
20 Dan Humphreys from Brooklyn
Copy !req
637. instead of that boy you loved
from the valley.
Copy !req
638. Well, you took care of that,
didn't you?
Copy !req
639. And you ended up
with Serena and Eric
Copy !req
640. and the life you deserve.
It wasn't up to you to decide
what kind of life i should have.
Copy !req
641. What else does it mean
to be a mother
Copy !req
642. than to make sure that your
child fulfills her destiny?
Copy !req
643. Well, i wanted to create
my own destiny.
Copy !req
644. But that would have meant
losing you,
Copy !req
645. Mother, please,
I'm just asking you to stay.
Copy !req
646. You know, being a mother myself,
I've made mistakes
Copy !req
647. that rival
if not outshine your own.
Copy !req
648. And i forgive you.
Copy !req
649. Lucky me.
Copy !req
650. You throw me out of your home,
and i get forgiven.
Copy !req
651. Mother, just say thank you
and give me a hug.
Copy !req
652. I most certainly
am not gonna thank you
Copy !req
653. for the terrible things
you said.
Copy !req
654. And as far as the hug goes,
Copy !req
655. well, you've always done exactly
as you pleased, haven't you?
Copy !req
656. Hey. You okay?
Copy !req
657. This is supposed to be
the happiest day in high school.
Copy !req
658. So why do i feel so sad?
Copy !req
659. Like something's ending?
Copy !req
660. Well, something is ending—
Copy !req
661. high school.
Copy !req
662. Not just school.
Copy !req
663. You're my first love.
Copy !req
664. Going
to my senior prom with you
Copy !req
665. is something I've wanted
since i was 12 years old.
Copy !req
666. And here we are,
Copy !req
667. like it was meant to be.
Copy !req
668. Yes.
This was supposed to happen.
Copy !req
669. I'm sure of it.
Copy !req
670. But now it has and—
Copy !req
671. why are you talking
in the past tense?
Copy !req
672. We're still here.
Copy !req
673. I know.
Copy !req
674. But this night already
feels like a memory.
Copy !req
675. Just hold me...
Copy !req
676. Until the song's over.
Copy !req
677. let's not waste these last
moments talking about it.
Copy !req
678. Okay.
Copy !req
679. hey.
Copy !req
680. There you are.
Copy !req
681. Where's the prom king?
Copy !req
682. We broke up.
Copy !req
683. What?
Copy !req
684. But—but everything was
so perfect.
Copy !req
685. It w—it was like
a fairy tale.
Copy !req
686. It turns out fairy tales
end when they do for a reason.
Copy !req
687. I really wanted to go to prom
with my high school boyfriend.
Copy !req
688. And... now that i have...
Copy !req
689. He feels like
your high school boyfriend.
Copy !req
690. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
691. Me, too—
Copy !req
692. that you almost missed prom
Copy !req
693. because your mother
had you arrested...
Copy !req
694. And your quasi
half-brother/ex-boyfriend
Copy !req
695. was your prom date.
Copy !req
696. You know, i actually
had a lot of fun tonight.
Copy !req
697. Dan and i made up, and i know
that whatever my mother did,
Copy !req
698. she—she did out of love.
Copy !req
699. And right now, i am with exactly
who i want to be with—
Copy !req
700. my best friend.
Copy !req
701. So thank you.
Copy !req
702. Well, it's the least i can do
Copy !req
703. since i got you arrested
and everything.
Copy !req
704. I didn't know
you were such a brawler.
Copy !req
705. Neither did i.
Copy !req
706. I learned some things
last night...
Copy !req
707. The biggest one being...
Copy !req
708. That I've really missed you.
Copy !req
709. You are high school to me—
Copy !req
710. all of the boyfriends
Copy !req
711. and mean girls and—
and tests and teachers
Copy !req
712. and our crazy mothers...
Copy !req
713. We—we went through it
together.
Copy !req
714. We raised each other.
Copy !req
715. You're my sister.
Copy !req
716. So where's your car?
Copy !req
717. How do you think
i got you out of here?
Copy !req
718. You sold your car?
Copy !req
719. What are we gonna do?
We're gonna walk?
Copy !req
720. Walking in L.A.? Wow, sis.
Copy !req
721. I have so much more
to teach you. Come on.
Copy !req
722. It's us. We travel in style
no matter how we travel.
Copy !req
723. shoulder pads may come and go,
but a b.F.F. Is forever...
Copy !req
724. because even when you're not
sure where you're headed,
Copy !req
725. it helps to know
you're not going there alone.
Copy !req
726. No one has all the answers,
Copy !req
727. and sometimes the best
we can do is just apologize
Copy !req
728. and let the past be the past.
Copy !req
729. other times,
we need to look to the future
Copy !req
730. and know that even when
we think we've seen it all,
Copy !req
731. life can still surprise us,
Copy !req
732. and we can still
surprise ourselves.
Copy !req
733. X.O.X.O., gossip girl.
