One Tree Hill · Season 5
Hey. Look, I hope you don't feel too 'slided by the set-up.
To be honest, I kinda expected it from you guys, you being you and Lindsey. Your hearts are in the right place. You picked the right person to spend the rest of your life with, Luke.
So did you.
Hi. I need to talk to you.
Sure. Is everything okay?
No. You can't marry Lindsey.
So, what up, P. Sawyer? You got a plan?
A plan for what?
To steal Lucas back. Oh, so I'm the only one thinking like that, huh? Ok, look. Here's the drill. When they say,'does anybody have any reason that this thing shouldn't go down?' Bam! That's you.
They don't do that at real weddings, Skills.
They should, though. You know, that's good drama. Anyway. How about this? I say we drug Lindsey first, even though I love her. Then we throw you in the wedding gown, so when Lucas lift up the veil. Bam! It's on.
Um, skills? That gown is tailor-made, so, no. And Peyton is gonna be okay.
Right. You know I love you, P. Sawyer, right? But, baby girl, you are so far from okay, man, you ain't even in the same area code. Wait. Maybe Lucas will say the wrong name on the altar just like Ross did on Friends.
Okay. How about this? How about Peyton puts on a nice dress, watches Lucas get married, gets wasted and has drunk, meaningless sex with some guy at the reception?
Yes.
Hey, baby, I ever tell you how sexy you look in that dress? Maybe we should head in.
[To Skills] Behave, or I will smack you.
Lucas Eugene Scott, do you take Lindsey Evelyn Strauss to be your lawfully wedded wife? Do you...
Lucas, you can't!
That's what I'm talking about!
I'm sorry. I'm... I'm sorry, but you just... you can't, because I love you and because you fixed my car.
Oh, boy.
Remember that day? Because that day changed everything and I didn't know it at the time. But when you fixed my car, you fixed my heart. And when you proposed to me two years ago, I just wasn't ready. And I was lost and scared, so I said 'someday', but someday's now Luke, it is. Someday is now and I love you. Please don't leave me again. People always leave. [back to reality and as a voiceover] At least that's what I should have said, instead, I said nothing and he said:
I do.
Hey Daddy, when you married Mama, was it your best day ever?
Actually, I think the day I graduated high school was my best day ever.
How come?
Well...'cause that's the day you were born.
[reading from Lucas' second book] It was more than just a comet because of what it brought to his life: direction, beauty, meaning. There are many who couldn't understand, and sometimes he walked among them. But even in his darkest hours, he knew in his heart that someday it would return to him, and his world would be whole again... And his belief in God and love and art would be re-awakened in his heart. [drops the manuscript into her lap]
Linds.... It's just a story... So what, Peyton's car is a comet you know... This is crazy! I love you.
I love you too, Lucas, I do and I always will. But your heart's conflicted and... I think I've always known it. I guess I was hoping someday... I could be your comet. [Sets the manuscript aside] It's an epic love story, Luke. But it's just not ours. [Takes her ring off and puts it on the manuscript] And neither is this.
Lindsay, please, you can't just leave.
People always leave Luke, you of all people should know that.
He said 'I do', Brooke. The minister asked if he would love and cherish Lindsey forever and he said 'I do'.
Bitch you need to stop! Sorry... OK. Peyton, do you want to know why I came home? Besides to help you. I am 22 years old and I have made more money than I could ever hope to spend and I have never felt more alone in my life. You need to talk to him Peyton. Just talk to him. And if you let the fact that Lucas said 'I do' today to Lindsey while he was obviously lying to his own heart be the reason that you sit here and cry, I am gonna smack you across your pretty face. [she hugs Peyton] I want to have a baby.
With me?
No. I've spent four years working these endless hours to fill this void that all the success in the world is never gonna fill and I realized that what I actually want is to have a family.
It was a comet, Luke. The boy saw a comet.
Okay...
The boy saw the comet and felt as though his life had meaning. And when it went away, he waited his entire life for it to come back to him.
Lindsey I love you, but this isn't the time for a book review okay?
What was the first day you ever talked to Peyton?
Lindsey...
Please.
Her car broke down.
The boy saw the comet and suddenly his life had meaning. I'm sorry Lucas, I can't marry you.
I'm not good with being vulnerable, in fact this is probably the closest I've come to it, or the second closest.
What was the first?
When I was a Junior, in High school I took some stuff to help me with my game, drugs and it was a stupid thing to do. I ended up collapsing on the court and my Dad was all about covering it up for the scouts. Anyway when I left the hospital I went to see Haley because I needed to know if she could forgive me, I wanted to see if I still had the chance to be great in her eyes, and when she did, when she forgave me- that was the moment that everything changed for me. That was the moment that I fell in love with her. This girl who could see past all the mistakes I have made. Now, I guess maybe sometimes I screw up because I want to feel that again. I suppose that sounds pretty broken...
My Mom used to sing to me, I don't think I've ever told anyone that before, it was like our little secret. But every night she'd come in and she'd tuck me in and she'd sing something, like lullaby's or album rock stuff. And after she was gone I remember lying in bed for the first time and just feeling silence, you know. Then realizing for the rest of my life that it was gone, all her songs were gone, her voice and the way it used to soothe me, just all of it. So I guess I tried to find new songs to fill that quiet, but none of them ever really have. Now she's gone and Mia's gone... and Luke is gone. There's just silence...There's just silence. I come in here and I sit in silence and hear the echoes of who we used to be. And so I wish for patience, and grace, and strength to just let him be happy. Mostly I pray for the strength to not make his life worse because of what I want. That's the toughest part, letting go, you know? That's the part of grace that really sucks.
[to the adoption agency woman] Do you know what my mother said to me when I told her I wanted to start a company? She said "your chances are one in a million" and I said "Maybe I'm that one" and she said "you're not.". And she was wrong. And whatever she thought she saw in me was wrong... Because I am one in a million and there is a child out there who has something so special inside of them but whose life is miserable because they think that nobody wants them. And I could be a great mother to that child, no matter their age or race or sex. I could help them find what makes them special. And if you can't see that, then you're wrong, just like my mother. Why don't you go ahead and write that down?
It's quiet around here without Jamie.
Yeah, he's with Brooke, baby steps.
How you sleeping these days?
So, so. Jamie tosses around like a Tasmanian devil.
He should probably get back to his own bed soon, the separation thing. Or he could sleep in the spare bedroom with me. You know, sometimes I find your goodness staggering. I didn't get to tell you in the session, but your kindness is overwhelming, Haley. You saved my life. And if I haven't said it lately, you're also sexy as hell. [She smiles and Nathan begins to walk away]
Hey. I was thinking um...not sleeping in this bed, might not be too bad tonight if you wanted to try it with me. [Nathan walks over, kisses her and then lays her down on the bed] Got anymore of that sexy talk?
The kind stuff or the sexy stuff?
Sexy.
You have a serious ass Haley James.
Make a wish and place it in your heart. Anything you want. Everything you want.
Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is going to come from, the next smile. The next wish come true.
But if you believe that it is right around the corner. And you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it. To the certainty of it.
You just might get the thing you're wishing for.
The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it?
Good. Now believe in it. With all your heart.
There he is! I said it's J. Luke Scott the boy is hot. Wherever he goes, homey, that's the spot.
His name is "Q" he's better than you. If the spot is hot then, he's there, too.
I'm the dad and I'm not so bad. I...
Lindsey. She’s the first thing I think about everyday. How is she? Does she miss me like I miss her? How do I get her back? And then another day without her begins.
Lucas
Chester.
Brooke. Oh My God, I have to pee!
What day is it? What time is it? What the hell did I drink last night?
Hm, Millicent, you smell so good. I have to go to work. Sure I guess I could be a little late. What do you mean I’m fired. I wasn’t even that late. How am I going to pay my rent? Would you like fries with that sir?
Jamie.
Jamie. God my girl's hot.
