Ow!
[shouts]
I can't do that to a friend.
It's my mom's boss.
Could you buzz me in?
'Kay, 'kay.
[buzzing]
[sobbing]
- Cat... - It'll be okay.
When he gets up here we'll just explain that...
[rumbling]
- What's happening? - Earthquake!
- Earthquake! - Okay, everybody down!
Cover your head!
[barking]
Oh, it's okay.
I read on the Internet that coffee works great
for getting rid of fur bugs.
Maybe you shouldn't, um...
Jade!
What's the prob, dog?
I've seen what you can do on stage.
You're special.
You're fantastic.
You belong at this school.
Normal's boring.
So, you ran away?
Uh-huh.
I live here now.
Oh, come on.
You have to have some other relative you can live with.
What about your grandmother?
Yeah, what do you call her? Nonna?
I would love to live with my Nonna,
but she moved away to Italy.
Well, but you can't live here.
- No way. - Why?
I've got this rope...
these extra-long extension cords...
a light bulb...
So, it's not so bad.
Are you maybe still into me?
No, not at all, and I love Cat.
She's like the sweetest thing ever,
and I'm psyched you guys are going out.
I guess it's just...
[incoherent noises]
- Cat! - Oh, my God. Cat!
Maybe I did still have
a few tiny little feelings left for Danny,
and maybe that's why I went a little crazy,
seeing you two being all mushy together.
You could've just talked to me about it.
I know.
What I did was terrible and awful and immature,
and you have every right to be furious with me.
I swear, Cat, if I were you,
I'd just punch me right in the face.
Ow!
Cat!
[sobbing]
And I'll never forget the time we went to Mystic Mountain.
And I was too scared to go on the big roller coaster,
so you called me a weenie.
And I went on, and I ended up having a great time.
[flat lining beep]
[sobbing]
My boss was checking you out online.
He saw you in that spaghetti costume
singing about your favorite foods, and...
That was a one-time thing.
I swear I take my music really seriously.
I know that, but...
Michael's got this thing about image,
and, you know,
guys who dress up as pasta
and sing songs about fruits and chicken fingers...
Nuggets.
That's not the image that he wants for the label.
Sorry, kid.
Hey.
What are you doing? You missed two classes.
I'm just sitting here.
- What? Pouting? - No.
Listen, I know you're upset,
but you're not making things better by ditching class
and sitting here by yourself drinking a gallon of...
"chocolate beverage".
Do you understand that for me being taken seriously
as a singer and a songwriter is everything?
People do take you seriously.
They did until...
♪ Oh, yummy, yummy Oh, yummy, yummy ♪
♪ Oh, yummy, yummy ♪
It's catchy.
Catchy like a rash.
Okay, then if you don't like your song... change it.
What do you mean, change it?
[bell ringing] I gotta get to class.
You coming?
Hey, Jade, did you want to join our...
You just had to have your stupid prom this Saturday night?
We're calling it a "prome".
I was supposed to do my performance this Saturday night.
Now Sikowitz says I can't because you booked
the Asphalt Café for your stupid prom.
Prome.
- Cancel it! - No!
"N-No?"
- No. - No?!
No.
Okay. All right.
Have your prome.
But know this, you're gonna wish you didn't.
I already asked Gabriella to be my date to the Cow Wow.
- Gabriella? - Mm-hm.
Well, what'd she say?
She said, "Sí!"
- That means yes. - I know!
I looked it up.
[chuckles awkwardly]
Well, yay.
You got yourself a pretty girl to take to the Cow Wow.
Yeah. Well, I just wanted to let you know
you don't have to run away from me anymore.
[chuckles] Thanks, Robbie.
- See you in class. - 'Kay.
[shouts]
Ten.
[car door closes]
[car engine starting]
Let's play some cards.
Mona Patterson...
I'm so sorry you died.
I used to love watching you on "I Married My Mom", and I...
And...
Go finish for her.
- [mumbles mockingly] - I don't...
[sighing]
And...
Mona...
Your memory will live forever in your work on television.
This isn't right.
Yeah, it is a little tight around--
No.
Not the stupid outfit. This.
Me.
I don't...
This is supposed to be your night.
This was your big chance, so for me to go out there and...
And...?
I can't do that to a friend.
What do you want us to do?
Um...
A scene.
You both have the same line.
"Life is pain."
So you just keep saying that to each other.
Over and over.
Do it. Action.
Life is pain.
- Life is pain. - It certainly is.
Ding. There's the bell. Class dismissed.
Oh...
Oh, my God...
I fell asleep during study hall.
Jade found me.
Aw, don't be sad, little one.
I think your head looks great like that.
Of course you do.
