03x71 - Love At Worst Sight

[bunniefuu]

[ ♪ ]


There you go!


Thanks, Serena.


I can't believe I'm working here. This is awesome!


You say that now.


Wait until you've unpacked all these CDs.


It's still better than hawking skateboards at my old job.


Now I work in the music biz!


Maybe one day someone'll be stocking your disk.


It just better not be me!


Public Nuisance?


And Jeez Luiz - k*ller!


I've got the bootleg from their comeback tour.


I just saw their farewell tour with Wyatt last year.


Wyatt's a mega fan.


Listen, it's not weird that...


That we've both dated Wyatt?


Not unless that makes US weird.


Yeah, I guess.


Speaking of Wyatt... Be right back!


Wyatt!


Hey, Marlowe.


What happened with your interview for that amazing job?


I got it!


Hey! Congratulaa....


...aaations?


Wait, you're working here?


At Spin This?! With SERENA?


I thought you'd be happy for me.


Happy?


Yeah, that's what I am.


I'm happy...


Hap-py. Thrilled, really.


Anyway, gotta go.


I'm ecs-freakin-static!

[ WYATT MOANS ]


What's the matter?


Marlowe just got a job at Spin This.


With SERENA!


New girlfriend and ex-girlfriend.


Bumm-o combo.


Yeah. You might wanna do something about that, bro.


Especially since you were so crazy when you and Serena broke up.


You wouldn't want Marlowe to find out.


No, no I wouldn't.


I wanted a fresh start with Marlowe.


I'm losing my freshness!


I think I know a product for that.


Don't worry, Wyatt.


WYATTWhat am I going to do?


You gotta break it up.


Don't let them do that girlie bonding thing chicks do.


How?


Do I look like a chick?


Girls bond over things they have in common.


Hobbies, music, shopping, clothes, magazines, shoes,


accessories, boys... Did I mention shoes?


Twice.


Good.


Girls are friends with other girls they can trust.


You need to break down that trust.


You know them both intimately,


so you'll need to use that to your advantage.


Ahh! I can't believe I just sold out my sisters!


You were helping a friend, Caitlin, helping a friend.


You could do ALL that,


or you could just slip a CD into Marlowe's bag


so it looks like she stole it.


What?


Oh, like you weren't all thinking it.


Uh, no. We weren't.


I don't want to get Marlowe fired!


It's the only way, dude.


Slip her the disc.


I think I'll just tell her how I feel.


What, and be honest?!


You should try it sometime!


What is with that guy?!


Do I know him?


Uh, how are WE supposed to know if you know a guy


that you don't know if you know?



He keeps hiding his face when I look at him.


So stop looking at him.


I gotta jet. New job.


You are looking at the new Assistant Optician


at 'Four Eyes Only'!


YOU an Assistant Optician?


Yes! I'll be selling glasses


and giving people free eye exams.


FREE exams?


You mean there are tests that people have to PAY for?


Mm-hmm. But not ours.


If you can SEE, this is one exam


you're guaranteed not to fail, bro!


Sweet.


Sign me up.


Got you down for one.


We've got lollipops


and just got in some slick new frames...


Come on, I work on commission!


Cute frames? Okay!


Fine.


I'd better get going too. Later.


Later.


Well, wish me luck.


Good luck! Where are you going?


To appeal to Marlowe's sensitivity.


What's this?


Oh, it's the best mix.


A guy I dated at camp gave it to me.


Can we listen to it?


Yeah, sure. Totally!


[ ♪♪♪ ]


I'll be right back with more stock.


Marlowe, can we talk for a sec about before?


You mean when you were "REALLY HAPPY" for me?


Look, I'm sorry...


I'm glad you love your new job.


But what about the skate shop?


They understand. I thought you would too.


Sure, I mean, I do. You love music.


But... Serena?


After I mixed up your names


you didn't want to hear about her, let alone hang with her.


You asked me to get over it, Wyatt, and I DID.


Serena seems cool.


I think we could be friends.


Friends?!


Don't you worry, sir, the store is in good hands.


The conference will only be two days.


And now I'll be back as soon as I can.


Are you sure you can handle this?


Absolutely!


I will personally 'SEE' to everything while you're gone!


Did you see that?!


Ah! Who is he?


And why is he hiding from me?


Is it that guy Dylan from camp?


Or that man I sold the defective jock strap to!


You ready?


Just let me warm up.


[ EXASPERATED SIGH ]


Cover one eye and read the chart.


Top line.


Umm...


Hmm. Um.


I have no clue what it says, dude!


None of it?!


No, bro!


I guess you need glasses.


I need glasses?!


You said I'd lick this test!


Whoa!


what're you doin' with that thing?


Don't worry, it's how we determine your prescription.


WE? You know how to work that thing?


Yes! I went through six hours of training.


And the Optician verifies all the prescriptions.


Now sit.


Is it better like this? Or like this?


Like this?


Or like this...


Um, like that... I guess?


Don't worry, bud...


We'll have you seeing again in no time.


These are perfect for you, Jude!


Okay.


A fine choice, sir.


What about you two?


Better eyesight will help you check out the hotties.


Oooooh... All right!


I guess it couldn't hurt.


Score! See ya at four.


I'm gonna make a sweet commission.


Yeah, uh, I would like to have my eyes checked.


Ooh. A boy, oh golly.


Uh, that chart is looking pretty blurry.


I guess I need, uh, new lenses, huh?


Wait a sec...


blurry eye chart means you need new glasses?


Well, um, er yes?



Blurry eye chart... I'd be loaded in no time.


You may be practically blind,


but you've just shown me the way, dude!


Aw man, I don't know about this.


I don't like it either, Wyatt.


But you can't lose Marlowe.


Not because of Serena.


Marlowe's gone. Then get in there!


Oh hey, Wyatt, Marlowe's in the washroom.


Oh, haha, Marlowe.


She's got a bladder the size of a pea!


And her memory...


Don't be too hard on her if she forgets where she put the CDs.


Or misses a shift or two.


I'll catch up with her later. Bye!


Wyatt, you ever notice that Serena can be a bit...


controlling?


She keeps asking me where the CDs are


and reminding me about my next two shifts.


The girl's got trust issues.


I hope she starts to trust me soon,


'cause she's driving me crazy.


For the first part of the exam I need you to shut your eyes.


What does this test?


Your night vision.


Oh.


Can you see anything?


No. Good.


Okay, now open your eyes.


Cover one eye and read the chart.


Wow, it's kinda blurry.


Um, E, F, L --


no P?


Um... oh, I don't know!


Tough break. You need glasses!


I-I don't believe it!


The chart doesn't lie.


Aww isn't that floppy bunny the cutest?


Yeah, I love bunnies.


Marlowe loves LIZARDS. Gross, huh?


Uh, I guess.


[ ♪♪ COUNTRY ]


Ew! Did you know that Serena loves country music?


Country music!


Really?


CAITLINThanks, Jonesy!


I can't wait for my new glasses.


They're so cute, and they help me see.


Right you are.


The Optician will get them right away.


They'll be yours tomorrow!


Things are LOOKIN' up!


[ CELL PHONE RINGS ]


Hey. How's it going?


Shhh. I'm eavesdropping.


Wyatt tells me that you've got a thing for lizards?


I didn't want her to TELL Marlowe!


I just hoped she'd think she was weird.


SERENAI love them too.


Look what I got! It's so cute!


Wyatt thinks lizards are gross.


Judd Farmer? This should be in the country section.


I actually kinda like Judd Farmer.


Really? Me too!


I thought Marlowe HATED country!


Wyatt hates country.


He was SO insistent that I told him I hated it too.


Did he put on that pouty face he sometimes makes?


That's it!


CAITLINWyatt, what's happening?!


They're laughing at me!


I gotta do something... I'll call you back.


Oh, you've just got to see the funniest picture


I got of him at one of our gigs.


Classic Wyatt.


Hey, isn't this your favorite mix CD?


It must've fallen off the counter into the trash.


Thanks SO much!


I would've been bummed if I'd lost it...


I'm so glad you're working here!


Really?


Totally!


Whoa!


Wyatt! Wyatt?


Heh-heh...


Hey, uh, yeah...


you should probably fix this.


[ ♪ ]


I always HATED that mixed CD!


Did you really knock over the entire stand of CDs?


Yes I did.


Sorry things aren't working out, Wyatt...


I hope you... can...


UH! You guys are freaking me out!


Are those even the right prescription?


Jonesy said they might be a bit blurry,


but our eyes will adjust.


They're not new shoes!


You're not supposed to have to break them in.


It's the price of looking good, I guess!



There's that guy again. He's still hiding from me!


Where?


Over there!


He's holding a soda can in front of his face.


What's his problem?


That's a basketball, Jen!


I'm not sure he's not the one with the problem.


Oh.


Yeah, that's me, remember?


I can't believe I pulled that stunt with the CD.


That's the last time I listen to Jonesy.


I thought the LAST time you listened to Jonesy


was gonna be the last time you listened to Jonesy.


Can you remind me next time?


Dude, you just have to chill. How?


Maybe you should try hanging with Chad.


He's pretty chill.


Serena's boyfriend?


He's so chill he's got permanent brain-freeze.


Wyatt, Serena's hanging with YOUR girlfriend.


So hang with her boyfriend and see how SHE likes it.


I'll fight fire with fire.


Thanks!


Someone might want to get the fire department on speed dial.


I'm on it.


That's not your cell, Jude!


I know. It's a loaner.


Mine's busted.


Though this one doesn't seem to be working so well either!


SUCH a great idea for all of us to hang out, Wyatt.


Good thinking.


So, Chad, you like movies?


Totally.


Seen anything good recently?


Definitely.


Ok, I'm done.


Marlowe, can I talk to you for a sec?


Yah.


Actually, I gotta head out.


See ya tomorrow, Serena?


Definitely! See ya.


I can't take this, Marlowe.


I don't want to hang out with Chad.


You're the one that suggested it.


Can't you just get your old job back at North Shore, pleeeease?


Wyatt, I can't believe you'd ask me something so selfish and thoughtless.


Selfish, maybe.


But I've given it a lot of thought!


Goodbye, Wyatt.


Ohhhhh.


Get that new pair of glasses


and see things for how they really are!


Spot those unsightly blemishes!


That chin hair!


Your really ugly husband.


It's like the w*r all over again!


Only smaller!


So how'd it go?


This is my last hope.


Two tickets to the Jeez Luiz reunion concert?


I got them as a peace offering for Marlowe.


Dude, if things up until now haven't worked,


try the opposite.


You mean I should support their friendship?


Worth a try.


Though I myself have never resorted to being 'nice'.


I'll break 'em up with my NICENESS!


Coach always says to play to your strengths.


I'll offer these to Marlowe AND Serena


as a show of supportive boyfriendliness!


Thanks, Jude!


Caitlin, pass me your sunglasses,


before I'm blinded by Wyatt's intense sincerity.


I really am sorry, Marlowe.


I got these for you and Serena.


Two tickets to see Jeez Luiz with Serena?!


Wow, Wyatt, you're the BEST boyfriend ever!


Yeah, thanks Wyatt.


You really are a GREAT boyfriend.


What is with that guy?!


Maybe he's hiding from the freaky chick that's spying on him.


OH NO, you're not getting away from me so easily this time!


JEN FALLSOW... my head!


Jude, you the man!


I scored HUGE with Marlowe AND Serena.


Be back.


This celebratory smoothie's gone right through me.


People don't realize how brainy I can be.


You make it easy to forget.


Thanks, dudette.


Enough.


We have reached an unacceptable level of chaos!


So a certain level of chaos is acceptable?


Not now, son!


That kind of talk just adds to the pandemonium.


MANAhhhh!


Who's there?! What WAS that?!


I -- I smell... fraudulence.


It wasn't me, dude.


I've got my eye on you, punk!



I SEE everything!


[ CRASH! ]


The horror!


Swim for the shore, men!


Swim!


Swim for shore!


Um, has anyone seen Wyatt?


I think he's in the washroom celebrating.


Okay, then.


Um, I just wanted to give him something.


Well, catch you later.


Later.


So, did you catch your mystery guy?


No!


And I grilled everyone, and no one knows who he is.


Dude, some chick was just here to see you.


I didn't really get a good look at her.


What's this...


a note?


From Serena?


What?! Serena LIKES me!?


She "likes" you likes you?


NO way!


Wow, I'd better go clear this up.


Serena likes Wyatt?!


What happened to the nice guys finishing last?


I thought girls like the bad boys!


You mean the kind of bad boy who would do this?


Uh oh.


It's kind of hard to read.


That's because this MAGGOT


blurred out the letters to sell more glasses!


It's not what it looks like!


Actually it's EXACTLY what it looks like.


I can't believe you'd stoop so low as to sell glasses


to people who don't need them.


People like your friends!


What happened to 'the Optician verifies all prescriptions'?!


He's out of town?


I was going to tell you, I swear!


As soon as I got my commission.


No hard feelings, right?


Actually the floor was pretty HARD


when my head landed on it!


So I passed the exam!


Actually, you didn't, Jude.


I didn't scam YOU.


Oh. Thanks, bro.


I would haul you off in my vehicle...


if I knew where I left it!


But I will find it, oh yes I will,


and when I do, I will find YOU.


MANAhhhhh!


Man down!


That's it... I've got him!


WHAAA!


Ahhh!!!


Please...


What do you want with me?


Oops. Sorry.


Hey guys! Turns out I don't even know this guy!


He was just trying to hide his monster zit.


Oops. Sorry.


Again.


Serena, what is with...


Are you looking for this?


Marlowe... don't...


Serena, you like Wyatt?


Yeah, I - I guess I do.


And you told him behind my back?


Sorry, but I had to be honest.


You've grown up, Wyatt.


You're a great boyfriend.


MARLOWE's great boyfriend.


I think you were right about me working here, Wyatt.


I quit.


Uh, now might be a good time to listen to some of that


achy flaky country music you love so much.


What up?


Nothing.


I never should've talked so much about you with Serena!


It was so dumb to tell her how great you are.


You told her how great I am? Of course!


Why do you think she's crushing on you?


Wow.


Where were you when Serena and I were dating?


Eeep. Wrong thing to say?


Um... yeah.


So my boss came back, and I had to refund everyone their money.


I guess I'd better start looking for a new gig.


You're lucky you're not looking for new friends too.


So it all worked out with Marlowe? Totally.


It's about time you got to dump Serena.


Felt pretty good!


I finally see Serena for who she really is.


I wish I could see...


my friends, the lemon,


my backpack.


Jonesy! What?!


I swear, I didn't use the trick eye chart on you, Jude.



Maybe I wasn't a seasoned pro with the prescriptions,


but you failed the exam all on your own!


See, not blurry!


Yeah, it is.


Take your glasses off, Jude.


Still can't read it.


Not even the top line?


E-F-P EPFPT...


EFPTOZLPED!


What kind of a word is that?


Doesn't make any sense, dude.


[ THEY ALL LAUGH ]


Uh Jude!


What?


You might not get it, bro...


But you can see just fine!
