[Max and Liz are in Mr. Evan's office looking at the conspiracy board] LIZ: You ok? MAX: I can't believe this. My whole life is up here. LIZ: Yeah. So is mine. He knows that I'm a part of this. MAX: My own father. "Tess." LIZ: he's got cards up here for everything... Los Angeles, Utah... The jeep. MAX: I got rid of it. LIZ: Yeah, because you thought you'd never need it again. MAX: I was going home. LIZ: Max, maybe you should tell your father. You know, let him in on the secret. MAX: No. No, I can't. Not ever. LIZ: Max- MAX: these are my parents. I can't--I can't put them in this kind of danger. They can't ever know the truth. LIZ: So, what are you gonna do? MAX: The necklace I gave you when I thought I was leaving... LIZ: Yeah, what about it? MAX: I need it back. [Liz and Maria are talking in the Crashdown] MARIA: So he didn't take it well, huh? LIZ: Alien Defcon 5. MARIA: It'll be ok, I hope. LIZ: Let Max talk to Michael. MARIA: Right. [Sighs] MICHAEL: so, when does Billy get here? MARIA: I don't know. I thought he'd be here by now. LIZ: Billy who? MARIA: Billy Darden. LIZ: First-kiss Billy? He's coming here? MARIA: Yes. He's on his way to New York. KYLE: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Your ex-boyfriend's coming to visit? That's not legal. MARIA: He's not my ex-boyfriend. We kissed once 4 years ago. I was 13, and Michael knows all about it. MICHAEL: Yeah, we're all going to dinner. LIZ: No. No mayo on that one. Um, so, where's he gonna stay? MARIA: At my house. KYLE: Your mom's ok with this? MARIA: My mom's out of town. KYLE: What? MICHAEL: It's fine. There's your no-mayo. KYLE: Michael, Michael, Michael. Let me explain something to you. Here on the planet earth we have this thing called jealousy. MICHAEL: Kyle, relax. I have nothing to be jealous about. They were 13-year-old geeks at band camp. MARIA: Ok, first of all, it was a, uh, songwriter's workshop. And, uh... Billy wasn't a geek. He was just a little skinny. He had a little acne on the face, but- MICHAEL: and braces. MARIA: We all had braces. All right, fine. He was a little bit of a geek. KYLE: And you kissed him? MARIA: Would you shut up? MICHAEL: Shut up. [A young good looking guys comes into the Crashdown] MARIA: Hello. Table or booth? BILLY: It's me. MARIA: Billy? BILLY: Yeah. MARIA: No. BILLY: Yeah. MARIA: Come here. Oh, my god. BILLY: Ohh. God, look at you. [A dozen eggs sitting next to Michael, suddenly explode] MARIA: Oh. Um, let's go this way. BILLY: All right. KYLE: I guess the braces worked. BILLY: God, last time I saw you you were like 13 going on 30. MARIA: And you were like 98 pounds going on this. You look great. BILLY: Now don't take this the wrong way, but have you looked in a mirror? I mean, you went from the girl no one wanted to dance with to the prom queen. MARIA: Now how am I supposed to take that the wrong way? And shut up. BILLY: I'm serious, really. You look great, Maria. MARIA: Thanks. Ahem. So... Uh, how long are you staying? BILLY: Uh, just a couple days. Uh, is it cool with your mom, me staying over? MARIA: Sure. Yeah. And anyway, she's, uh, she's actually gonna be out of town for a couple of days. BILLY: Oh. Well, uh, I can't wait to hear what you've been working on. MARIA: Working on? BILLY: Your music. MARIA: Oh. BILLY: God, I can still remember some of the lyrics you wrote back at band camp. MARIA: God. Yeah, most of it was crap, anyway. BILLY: Oh, come on. MARIA: If anyone asks, though, it was a songwriters workshop. BILLY: Oh. [Max opens the back door of Crashdown and whispers] MAX: Michael! MICHAEL: What are you doing in here? MAX: When do you get off work? MICHAEL: 10 minutes. But I've got plans with Maria and Billy bob Thornton out there. MAX: Something came up. Cancel them. [Maria and Billy are talking in front of the restaurant] BILLY: That is so funny. MICHAEL: Hi. BILLY: Hey. MICHAEL: I'm the boyfriend. BILLY: Hey. Billy. Nice to meet you. MARIA: Ready to go? MICHAEL: Gotta cancel. MARIA: Wait a minute. I was gonna cook. MICHAEL: Something came up. MARIA: What? MICHAEL: It's work-related. MARIA: Oh. Of course. MICHAEL: Steve's wife, Cheryl, she got the flu on my other job, so I gotta cover for her... BILLY: Oh. Him. MICHAEL: Yeah. Sorry, Billy. BILLY: Oh, no. You gotta do what you gotta do, you know? MICHAEL: I'll make it up to you. I promise. MICHAEL: Nice meeting you. BILLY: Yeah. He seems nice. MARIA: Oh, yeah. He's a peach. [Isabel and Jesse are moving into their new apartment] ISABEL: Oh, no-no-no, honey! Those go in the bedroom. Those boxes go in the bedroom. JESSE: Uh-huh. ISABEL: Oh, you know what? I'm sorry. You were right. Kitchen. JESSE: I just remembered. We forgot something. ISABEL: Oh, jeez! Wow! You're really strong. JESSE: Ok, it's tradition... [Jesse picks Isabel up and walks her over the threshold] JESSE: Mrs. Ramirez, welcome to your new home. ISABEL: Thank you, Mr. Ramirez. I love you so much. JESSE: Me, too. [Telephone rings] ISABEL: I should get that. JESSE: And I should get more boxes. But we should... ISABEL: Continue this later? JESSE: Yes. [Ring] [ring] ISABEL: hello? MAX: Did you find your healing stone? ISABEL: Yes, i did. It was in the box that i said it was gonna be in. You are way overreacting to this whole thing. MAX: No, I'm not, Isabel. Dad is on the warpath. ISABEL: He's our father, not the enemy. Listen to me- Mr Evans: Isabel? ISABEL: Oh, my god! Mr Parker: Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. The door was open. ISABEL: Oh, can I call you back? I'll call you back. Ok, bye. Hi, dad. Um... What's up? Mr Evans: I just wanted to see your new place. It's nice. Cozy. Uh, from your mother and me. [Mr Evans hands a plant to Isabel] ISABEL: Ooh, thank you so much. Thank you. Um, you really should have waited, though, until, you know, we got a little more unpacked and situated. Mr Evans: Nah, that's all right. Where's, uh, Jesse? ISABEL: He's outside by the truck, I think. Mr Evans: I can't believe how grown up my kids are. You with your new house, Max with his new car. ISABEL: Yeah. Grown up. Mr Evans: I guess I have to get used to my new role. I didn't get the chance to help you find this place. I didn't even know Max was getting a new car. ISABEL: Yeah, it all just happened really fast, you know? Mr Evans: Do you even know when he got rid of the jeep? MARIA: I can't believe you're doing it. Moving to New York, huh? BILLY: Yeah. Greenwich village. MARIA: Playing seedy bars and coffee shops. BILLY: Well, that was the plan. MARIA: Yeah, but there are plans and then there are plans. BILLY: Well, I guess this was the plan. MARIA: Yeah, I guess so. So, what are you gonna do for money? BILLY: As long as I make enough to get by, I'm fine, you know? MARIA: Oh, god, that is so romantic, I could just scream. BILLY: Come on. It was your idea. MARIA: I know, but I mean, I was 13 and talkin' about going to the big city. Even then I knew it was just talk. Here. Taste. BILLY: That's pretty good. That's not how I remember it. I mean, even back then you were pretty dead serious about your music. I mean, you're the one that gave me the bug. If I hadn't have met you, I'd still be playing stairway to heaven in my mom's garage. MARIA: Well, I guess for me music was just more of like a passing thing. BILLY: Well, I find that very hard to believe. MARIA: What are you doing? BILLY: The sauce is just a little thin, so I'm gonna show you a little family secret. MARIA: In my sauce? You're putting creamer- BILLY: shh. Come on. Try it. Try it. Try it. MARIA: Ok. Mm-hmm. BILLY: Mm-hmm. MARIA: Not bad. [Back at Jesse and Isabel's apartment] JESSE: Your dad introduced me to some new clients as his son-in-law. ISABEL: This floor is way too hard. JESSE: Do you think i should start calling him dad? Ha ha! That is too weird. I won't do it. ISABEL: We could use a blanket. I'll be right back . JESSE: Hey, where are you going? ISABEL: To get a blanket. JESSE: Why? ISABEL: So we can have sex. JESSE: In here? ISABEL: Yes. It's tradition that when a couple moves into their new place, they make love in every room of the house. JESSE: Ok. Can I finish flossing my teeth? Oh! Before I forget, your dad- ISABEL: please! Could we just not talk about my dad for a second here? JESSE: Yeah, sure. ISABEL: Oh, ok. What'd he say? JESSE: He's bringing up Utah. Utah? Yeah, Max's little crime spree. He keeps asking me what I think really happened. ISABEL: What did you say? JESSE: That I think Max is hiding something. Damned if I know what it is. What do you think? ISABEL: You wanna know what I think? I think that as long as my father and Max continue to invade my life with you, tradition is gonna have to wait. JESSE: What did I just do? [Isabel storms out] [Billy and Maria are talking] MARIA: No! Oh, my god! No! BILLY: There she is. Right there. MARIA: Look at my hair and my eyes. Ugh! BILLY: Come on. It was your late 90s retro Annie Lennox phase. You know, you were experimenting. I think it was cute. MARIA: Right. Burn those now. BILLY: Oh, no--oh, no. These are goin' to the big apple where they'll be prominently displayed in my guitar case where people will be throwing money. MARIA: Look at that! Look at-- this hair spray alone could choke a horse. BILLY: Ok. Well, look past the somewhat flammable hair and see what I see. MARIA: Which is what? Bad eyeliner? BILLY: Nah. Dreams. Look. This girl... Has beautiful dreams. And she makes beautiful music. So, what happened to her? MARIA: Nothing. She just grew up. BILLY: Right. Right. [Max and Michael are digging a hole in the dessert] MICHAEL: Is this deep enough? MAX: Almost. MICHAEL: Max, we've been up all night collecting every conceivable alien artifact that ever crashed in this god-forsaken planet, including all of Tess's stuff. I'm tired. MAX: All right. That's deep enough. We still need your healing stone. MICHAEL: I think it's at Maria's. MAX: You think it's at Maria's? MICHAEL: Yeah. I don't know. Most likely. MAX: I bet if it was one of your Metallica cds you'd know where it was. MICHAEL: Hey! You wanna bring that up again? The reason I got pissed is you put and justice for all before master of puppets. MAX: Yeah. Alphabetical order. MICHAEL: They go in order of the release date. MAX: And you don't know where your healing stone is? MICHAEL: You still wanna sleep on my couch? [Cell phone rings] MAX: hello? ISABEL: Jesse is asking all kinds of questions about you, Max. You're right. Dad is out of control. We have to do something. MAX: Isabel, calm down. Just tell me what happened. MICHAEL: What's going on? MAX: My dad's recruited Jesse into this crusade of his. MICHAEL: Ok, Max, you need to talk to your father. Keep your friends close... MICHAEL: And your enemies closer. ISABEL: Our father is not the enemy, Max. MICHAEL: Talk to him. Make nice. Get close. Find out what he-- [The camera pans back. A man is hiding behind some rocks taking pictures of Max and Michael] [Later, Michael is knocking on Maria's door- Billy answers] MICHAEL: you haven't left yet. BILLY: Oh, no, man. Late night. Sorry. I'm leaving later today. MICHAEL: How was dinner? BILLY: It was good, man. It was good. BILLY: How's Steve's wife? MICHAEL: Who? BILLY: Steve's wife, with the flu. You covered for him. Remember? Yeah. She's great. She's fine. Is Maria around? BILLY: No, man. You just missed her. Just missed her. Can I leave her a note or a message or something? MICHAEL: No. I'm here to pick something up. BILLY: Can I help you look? MICHAEL: No. That's ok. BILLY: What are you looking for? MICHAEL: Something I need. [Michael puts the healing stone in his pocket] BILLY: Hey, when did Maria stop writing music? MICHAEL: She messes around with it once in a while. BILLY: Well, how often does she mess around with it? MICHAEL: Is this goin' somewhere? BILLY: No. I mean, maybe. I mean, I don't know. I'm just... I'm just wondering if she's given up on writing and singing altogether. MICHAEL: I really wouldn't know. BILLY: Well, listen, man, she's really good. I mean, she's really good. MICHAEL: Yeah, I'll keep that in mind. MICHAEL: I guess what I'm looking for isn't here. BILLY: Well, I'd tell her you stopped by, but I got a bus to catch. [Later, Michael is making sauce at the Crashdown] MARIA: Hmm, you know what? That sauce looks a little thin. You should put half and half in there. MICHAEL: It's not coffee. MARIA: It works. Billy showed me. It gives it heft. MICHAEL: I don't put dairy products in my meat sauce. It's not kosher. MARIA: Ok. I said no cheese in the nebulua salad. MICHAEL: Forgot. Listen, I was thinking about skipping out on bowling tonight, and maybe we could make up for last night. MARIA: That is so sweet, but I kind of had plans. Just... MICHAEL: Plans with who? MARIA: It's nothing...Big. Just me and Billy were gonna go and... MICHAEL: Billy? Isn't he on the bus? MARIA: He missed it. He's staying another night. MICHAEL: Another night?! [The salad bowl explodes] MARIA: What did you do that for? You could've hurt me. MICHAEL: Sorry. I'm not sure what happened. [Max is waiting in his father's office] Mr Evans: Max. MAX: Hey, dad. Mr Evans: What are you doing here? MAX: I think we need to talk. Mr Evans: I agree completely. SECRETARY: Your 11:30 is here. Mr Evans: Gimme 10 seconds. I'm sorry, I've got a meeting waiting. MAX: No, it's ok. Why don't we go fishing, like we used to, away from all these interruptions? Mr Evans: Sounds good. When? MAX: Tomorrow. Mr Evans: Great. I'll pick you up early. Got to get a jump... MAX: On those fish. Excuse me. [Mr Evans meeting is with the photographer who was taking pictures of Max and Michael] PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR: Saw him and that friend of his out in the desert. Mr Evans: What were they doing? PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR: Couldn't really tell from where I was standing, but I got some pictures. Mr Evans: What else you got for me? PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR: A receipt from the last time your son filled up his jeep. First week in may. Mr Evans: That's when Tess disappeared. Do you think these 2 events are connected? PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR: There's only 3 reasons a person gets rid of a vehicle-- 1--they sell it. 2--they ruin it in order to bilk the insurance company. Or 3--they destroy it to hide something. Mr Evans: What do you think my son's trying to hide? PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR: We better find that jeep, Mr. Evans. [Maria comes home and finds Billy playing Alex's guitar] MARIA: Billy, I hope you're ok with hamburgers 'cause that's you're getting. BILLY: Hamburgers are fine. MARIA: Why is that out? BILLY: Michael stopped by today. This ended up on the bed, so I am tuning it for you. MARIA: Why? BILLY: It's out of tune, darlin'. MARIA: Put it back. BILLY: In just a second. MARIA: You know what? Forget it. I'll put it back. BILLY: Hey, what's wrong? MARIA: I invite you into my house and you go through my stuff? BILLY: Where's all this coming from? It's a guitar baby. MARIA: No, it's not. [Michael and Liz are closing the Crashdown] MICHAEL: Pretty busy night, huh? LIZ: Mm-hmm. MICHAEL: How much money do you think we'd pull in on a night like tonight? LIZ: You know that you really suck at small talk? Why don't you just tell Dr. Parker what's on your mind? MICHAEL: Hey, tell me--do I need to be worried about this Billy guy? LIZ: No, you don't. He's completely harmless. MICHAEL: But you think he's good-looking right? LIZ: Uh, well, yeah, if you like that sort of thing, I guess. MICHAEL: The good-looking sort of thing. LIZ: Michael... MICHAEL: Do you really think he missed his bus? LIZ: Yes, i do. Haven't you ever missed a bus before? MICHAEL: No, 'cause I don't take the bus, and I don't write songs. And I don't cook with freaking half and half. [The sugar dispensers explode] LIZ: Hey! Hey, Michael! MICHAEL: Sorry. My powers are out of control. LIZ: Would you look at this mess! My dad is gonna freak. MICHAEL: Relax. I'll fix it. [Michael tries to fix the mess, but his powers don't work] LIZ: Please. Michael, you need to calm down, ok? Everything's gonna be fine between you and Maria, trust me. MICHAEL: She cooked him Italian food last night. LIZ: Oh. MICHAEL: I knew it. That's a problem. LIZ: No, no, it's not a problem. It's just, um... It's food. MICHAEL: No, Liz. It's Italian food. LIZ: Michael, please don't do anything stupid or alien or both, please?! [Billy strums guitar in adjoining room] MARIA: try going to an f major 7th, please. I can't listen to you anymore. Just trying going to an f major 7th. BILLY: Not bad. MARIA: Oh, please. I totally fixed it for you. BILLY: Ok. Now let's see if you remember this one... So what about earlier? MARIA: Yeah, I'm sorry that I went off on you. BILLY: Gonna tell me about it? MARIA: That guitar belonged to a friend of mine. His name was Alex. He died last year. BILLY: I am so sorry. I am so sorry. I had no idea. MARIA: His parents wanted me to have this guitar, but I just couldn't bring myself to play it. BILLY: Bad memories. MARIA: He was only 17. He had his whole life. His whole life. BILLY: Did you and Alex write songs together? MARIA: Not really. We tried once, but I just don't partner well. I don't know, you're, like, the only person that I've ever trusted in that way. BILLY: So if you guys were writing songs, then that means you were singing up until... MARIA: Until his funeral. Yeah, that was the last time. BILLY: Well, then I guess tonight's a special night. MARIA: (Singing) I wish I could read your mind - words don't mean a thing - I've given you all my time - all you do is leave - and if you were standing here in front of me - I know you would say - there's nothing oh, so precious - as something that's gone away - and if there is a reason - i just don't want to know - why you feel the need to love me so - only when you go - only when you go- [Michael is watching thru the window- He gets upset and walks off- his powers are out of control and setting off car alarms- He slams the door as he walks into his apartment] MAX: what happened? MICHAEL: It's over. MAX: What, my dad found something? What? MICHAEL: No, it's not that. I saw Maria and what's his name, Billy, together. MAX: Oh, together as in... Together? MICHAEL: Worse. MAX: What could be worse? MICHAEL: They were singing together. MAX: So you're jealous. MICHAEL: I'm not jealous! [A lamp explodes] MICHAEL: My powers are slightly out of whack. MAX: "Out of whack"? MICHAEL: I've been blowing things up all day. MAX: Get them under control. MICHAEL: I can't. MAX: Michael, get yourself together. What if this happens in front of my father? MICHAEL: I don't care about your father or his stupid investigation. MAX: All right, look, I'm sorry. We're part human. We're supposed to have feelings. You keep them bottled up like this, they're gonna get out somehow. MICHAEL: What should I do? MAX: Talk to her. MICHAEL: That's it? Just talk to her? MAX: Yeah. MICHAEL: Ok, sure. [Max and his father are fishing on the lake] Mr Evans: I've missed this. Max: Yeah, me, too. Mr Evans: So why did you get rid of the jeep? MAX: Got sick of it. Plastic doors, the roof took forever to get on and off. Mr Evans: Yeah. I hope you got a good price for it. MAX: Blue book. Mr Evans: Huh. So who bought it? MAX: This guy at school. Drove it cross-country to college. Cornell, I think. Mr Evans: It was a fun car. Remember the guy we bought it from? MAX: Yeah. Now, he was scary. Mr Evans: I thought he was gonna shoot us. MAX: You wouldn't meet his price. Mr Evans: I did when the gun fell out of his boot. How old were you? MAX: 15. Mr Evans: Yeah. I'm just surprised that you would sell it without telling me first. MAX: It was sort of spontaneous. Mr Evans: And you say this guy who bought it-- he was gonna drive it all the way to Cornell? MAX: Yeah. He was planning on fixing it up first. Mr Evans: Right. MAX: I saw the board in your office. I know what you're doing. Mr Evans: And what am I doing? MAX: It isn't right to spy on your own son. Mr Evans: I'm not spying. I'm trying to figure out what's going on. Is my concern for you a threat? MAX: Do I threaten you? Mr Evans: You frighten me, Max. I don't think I know who you are anymore. I'm beginning to think I've never known. MAX: I'm your son. Mr Evans: With secrets. And my biggest fear is that they're terrible secrets, that you're in trouble and I can't help. MAX: You can't help because I'm not in trouble. Mr Evans: Not in trouble? Max, if it weren't for me, you'd be rotting in jail right now. I put my reputation on the line for you, and I still don't know why. [Cell phone rings] Mr Evans: what? Yeah. Wait there. We're done. Let's head in. MAX: Dad... Mr Evans: We're done. [Michael comes up behind Maria in the Crashdown] MICHAEL: hey. MARIA: "Hey" back. MICHAEL: Can I say something? MARIA: Back room. MARIA: Do we have a problem? MICHAEL: No, we don't. I do. MARIA: How can I help? MICHAEL: Be patient with me. MARIA: Always. MICHAEL: Don't say it like that, like I'm a kid. MARIA: That's not what I meant. What are you worried about, really? What can I do? MICHAEL: Tell your friend to leave. He shouldn't be here. It's not a good time. MARIA: Not a good time? Let me ask you a question, Michael. MICHAEL: Here we go... MARIA: No, don't do that. MICHAEL: You ask "what can I do," and I tell you. MARIA: When is it a good time? MICHAEL: To step out with an old boyfriend? MARIA: He is not an old-- ooh, would you just- MICHAEL: where's your patience now? MARIA: When is it a good time for me to take a small step back from this nonstop alien hootenanny? MICHAEL: We're in danger. Max's father- MARIA: I know. MICHAEL: Yeah, and you don't care because that Billy guy-- [Michael's powers cause things on the shelf to fall] MARIA: Michael... MICHAEL: You're gonna leave me for him. MARIA: No. No. Ok, I'll tell him. MICHAEL: Thank you. MARIA: Hey, it's what I do. It's what I always do. [Kyle is talking to Max on the phone] KYLE: Max, I think we got a problem. MAX: What is it? KYLE: Your dad just called for a tow truck. MAX: Where? KYLE: Mile marker 16 out on route 7. MAX: They found the jeep. [Maria comes home. Billy is playing the guitar] BILLY: Hey. MARIA: I have to tell you something. BILLY: What? MARIA: You have to go. BILLY: Right this second? MARIA: Yeah. BILLY: I'll get my stuff. Is this about Michael? Am I in the middle of something? MARIA: No. It's complicated. It's just my life. I can't have more than one thing going on. It's not you. It has nothing to do with you. BILLY: That's too bad. MARIA: What's that supposed to mean? BILLY: Truth? Maria, i missed my bus on purpose. MARIA: Why? BILLY: Because I was given some advice one time... Decide what you want in life and live it. MARIA: That's terrible advice. BILLY: You gave it to me. MARIA: That explains it. BILLY: 4 years ago, our last night at camp. MARIA: I was 13. BILLY: That night stuck with me. You stuck with me. That kiss stuck with me. It was my first one. MARIA: You told me that you kissed tons of girls. BILLY: I lied. I don't know. I was just... I was hoping that- MARIA: I'm with someone. BILLY: Yeah, I met him. MARIA: Look, you don't understand. Michael is just- BILLY: stopping you? MARIA: Stopping me from what? BILLY: from I don't know. From life. From this. [Billy kisses Maria- she doesn't respond at first, then kisses him back] [The scene switches to the jeep being pulled up from the ravine. Michael, Max, and Isabel are watching] ISABEL: This is bad. MICHAEL: What are you gonna tell your father, Max? MAX: I'm not gonna tell him anything. He doesn't trust me anymore. MICHAEL: Who does he trust? [Max looks at Isabel] [Scene switches to Liz and Maria talking] LIZ: and then you kissed him? MARIA: Yes, I did. LIZ: Where is he right now? MARIA: At my house. LIZ: Ha! What were you thinking? MARIA: I don't know. LIZ: And that's all that it was. It was just a kiss. MARIA: Maybe. You know? Maybe not. LIZ: Let's just talk about the kiss for one second. Was there any passion? MARIA: Tons. LIZ: Oh... MARIA: I know. But it's not that kind of passion. It's like it woke me up. LIZ: Like sleeping beauty. MARIA: Yeah, I guess. MARIA: Do you think I've been asleep this whole time? LIZ: Well... I think you've been trying to remember who you used to be for a long time. Say it. MARIA: I just-- sometimes I just feel like I've paid this huge price for knowing Michael and knowing these aliens. It's like... God, I didn't think I'd end up here dealing with this crap every day. I mean, I love Michael, and I do sort of love this ridiculous soap opera, but... I just...I can't take it anymore. I feel like I'm trapped and I'm never gonna get out. LIZ: I know. MARIA: I mean, I... I didn't sign up for this. LIZ: Yes, you did. We all did. MARIA: I know. It's just, I had this dream once... I mean, maybe I still do. I don't know. LIZ: Maybe sometimes you have to go after your dreams. And who am i to tell you just give them up, because without your dreams, you're just me. MARIA: Liz. LIZ: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That sounded way too self-pitying, and this isn't about me. It's just that, um... I'm committed to going down this road with Max. Good, bad, indifferent, I'm committed. And I've given up a lot along the way, so unless you're sure that's what you want to do with Michael, don't be so quick to give up your dreams. [Maria comes home. Billy is packing to leave] MARIA: Hey. I have this insane idea. BILLY: What? MARIA: That we do what we planned, that I go to New York with you. BILLY: Wow. MARIA: Yeah. BILLY: What about your mom? MARIA: Well, I know that she'll want me to finish high school. BILLY: Not a bad idea. MARIA: No, so after I graduate. BILLY: Great. MARIA: Maybe. BILLY: Maybe. MARIA: No, I just don't know if this is what I wanna do- BILLY: hey, hey, hey. You don't owe me an explanation. I screwed things up. MARIA: No, you didn't. BILLY: Yes, I did. I should have known better. I changed the whole flow between us. But I been wanting to kiss you for about 4 years, and I'm a guy, so I took a shot. MARIA: I just think I may have given you the wrong impression. BILLY: No, you didn't. We're fine. And if I did anything to make you feel bad, I'm sorry. I just wish you hadn't of... MARIA: What? BILLY: I wish you hadn't hidden yourself away with that guitar. BILLY: You gonna come see me in the village? MARIA: Yes. BILLY: I'll get you front row seats. MARIA: And I will throw my underwear at you. [Sighs] BILLY: bye, Maria. MARIA: Bye. [Billy leaves] [Isabel and Jesse are having dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Evans] Mrs Evans: It's newly upholstered. It has a dark print with big, uh... Pink cabbage roses. JESSE: Wow. I don't know if that would really, uh- Mr Evans: hey, hey, hey. Mr Evans: You can't beat the price. [As Isabel sits down, she is remembering what Max told her. We hear his voice and the conversation she had with him] MAX: They trust you, Isabel. ISABEL: I'm sick of lying to our parents. MAX: There's no other choice. ISABEL: Yes, there is. The truth. MAX: It's too dangerous for them and for us. ISABEL: Max, you're wrong I want to tell them... [Voice over conversation ends] ISABEL: The truth. Mrs Evans: What, hon? ISABEL: What? Mrs Evans: Did you say something? ISABEL: The truth. I... I want to tell you the truth about what's been going on with Max. ISABEL: It's about Tess. Max got Tess pregnant, but she left before the baby was born, so Max may have a child out there somewhere. Mrs Evans: Oh, my. ISABEL: That night that she left, he was so angry that he just drove all night and pushed his jeep off a cliff because he... Was so crazy. JESSE: God, Isabel. I'm so sorry. If I had known, I wouldn't have- Mr Evans: I'm sorry, too, Isabel, for asking you those questions, for putting Jesse in the middle. ISABEL: He would have told you himself. He was just so afraid to disappoint you. Mr Parker: Thank you for finally telling us the truth. [Isabel is talking to Max on the phone later] MAX: Did they buy it? ISABEL: Yeah. They bought everything. ISABEL: You're safe for another day. MAX: Thanks, Iz. I owe you. ISABEL: Maybe now we can get back to normal. [Mr. Evans is in his office looking at a picture of Isabel. He pins it to his board under the conspirators section] [Michael meets Maria in the park] MICHAEL: You wanted to talk, which usually means you're gonna kick my ass, so I brought some friends. MARIA: Thank you. I guess. MICHAEL: Ha. Is he gone yet? MARIA: Yeah. MICHAEL: good! MARIA: Feel better? MICHAEL: Getting there. What are we talking about? MARIA: I wanna break up. I want out because I love you so much. I love you more than you could possibly know. MICHAEL: I'm lost. MARIA: No, I'm lost. And you've been there the whole time to help me through all of it. MICHAEL: All of what? MARIA: This whole thing-- this alien, human, the scary stuff, the bad stuff. MICHAEL: And there was fun stuff, too. MARIA: Yeah, but I haven't been honest in any of it. MICHAEL: Listen, if you're trying to tell me that you're a bisexual or something, I'm--I'm cool with that. I'm... MICHAEL: Why do you want out? MARIA: Because, Michael, I don't think I've ever been in. I mean, this girl you've known for the past 3 years-- Maria-- it's just not me. MARIA: Of course it's you. MARIA: No, it's not the me I used to be. MICHAEL: Things change. MARIA: Yeah, things change. MICHAEL: Just like that. Will you come back to me? MARIA: I don't know. [Maria hands the flowers back and walks off- she goes home and picks up Alex's guitar- we see Isabel looking out the window, Mr. Evans taking a drink, and Michael remembering his relationship with Maria] [Song plays in the background] Breathe again - I'm livin' on your air tonight - never knowing when you'll cut it off - oh, you have a way - that makes it hard to sleep alone - and just when the dream gets good - you always seem to have to go - so - here I am - alone again - waiting for the story - to finally end - while the world spins around - it's out of my hands - don't even try - to understand - and I guess it's time to tell you - what you should already know - oh, you know - I'm better breathing on my own - all alone -
