01x05 - Fear and Falling in Montana

[bunniefuu]

- [Woman] It's weird.

I've been stuck in the middle of crowded streets,

and never felt more alone.

But here I am in the middle of nowhere.

And for some strange reason, I don't feel alone at all.

- It's amazing.

It's totally wild.

I can't even go near him and look at him just hanging around

her like a puppy dog.

- [Woman] Never seen anything like it.

- Funny thing is to Caitlin.

This is the most normal thing in the world.

- You do anything for a bunch of grass, wouldn't you, boy?

You're not just staying with me because you're hungry.

You want your ears scratched.

- Hurry up Caitlin you gonna be late for your bus.

- Sorry, bandit.

I got to go to school. now it's back to uncivilization.

- [Eric] My sister heard her talking in the bathroom.

Taylor thinks I'm a god.

- No way.

- [Graffen] Taylor thinks you are a dork

- Do you guys have any idea how boring this conversation is?

- Are you calling my sister a liar.

- No, I'm calling you a liar.

- Okay because Caitlin calls me a liar.

- Well, why don't we just keep it our little secret.

- Here she is.

(slow jam music)

Hi.

- You mind wiping your drool up off the floor, please.

- When did you get here?

- Okay. Einstein's.

I want you to meet, your own personal crash test dummy.

Heads up.

(Students laughing)

Rubber, I couldn't resist.

(Students laughing)

Your assignment, should you choose to accept it.

And you will because it counts as 15% of your semester grade

is to take the real thing,

and drop it from 30 feet without breaking it.

- That's impossible.

- Well, not impossible.

You just have to build the appropriate container,

and see if it absorbs the impact.

It's a team project.

So pick your partners.

- Well, I could use a parachute device.

Or I could possibly use some cushioning around,

to absorb the impact.

- Taylor.

- I was wondering if you wanted to be partners.

- Me?

Really?

- I thought I'd come to your house tomorrow morning.

Is 10:00 too early?

- 10:00?

Oh, 10:00 is great.

I like 10:00.

- All right, I know you're the super brainiac and everything

but let's get one thing straight.

You're not the boss.

I'm not cleaning up splattered yolk.

And- - Caitlin,

I'm actually gonna be Taylor's partner.

- What?

- Is she your partner?

- Oh, no, she's my cousin.

- Yeah.

Right. (bell rings)

- You have no idea how big a deal this is to me.

My life totally changed at 2:37 this afternoon.

And it's all because of...

You actually did a nice thing.

- What?

- You noticed that I needed something.

And then without thinking of your self,

you did a nice thing. Like a normal person.

Wow.

- Yeah. Forget it.

- No.

No. I owe you one.

If you need any help on your project,

I'm there for you.

But, only when Taylor's not around.

- Do you know what? Save it.

I'm used to doing it alone.

- Easy Bandit that's it,

here we go

okay.

- Bandit.

Hey Bandit, I'm here.

- Caitlin. Stay back.

- I know what I'm doing.

- Caitlin.

(fast phased music)

- Why did he do that?

- He got confused he's scared.

- He's not scared of me.

- It's time to tame him.

- Why don't you just leave him alone?

- Because he's a wild animal and he's dangerous.

He's gonna stay here. We have to be able to ride him.

- When you first met mom,

how did you know that she liked you?

I mean, not just like, but you know, like, like.

- And why would you want to know that?

- I just do okay.

- Well, I guess the first thing I noticed

was she laughed at my jokes.

- And that wasn't easy. His jokes were bad.

I mean really bad. We're talking..

- Okay, I think they get the point honey.

(phone ringing)

- I'll get it.

Hello?

Oh, hi.

Oh no, no.

It's not a bad time. It's a great time.

Yeah. Dinner's pretty lousy tonight.

So how's it.

Oh.

Oh no.

That's that's okay. I don't mind.

All right, sure.

- So how is Taylor.

- Taylor?

- Good going Griff.

- Please.

- She asked him to be her egg partner.

- When she going to come over?

- Noon.

- I thought she said 10:00.

- Something came up. She thought it'd be faster.

If I got to start it without her.

- Great dinner mom.

So Taylor, how exactly do you want to start?

The experiment?

Corny. Dumb.

She laughs at that. She's gotta like me.

- Now we're going to start by showing bandit

that he doesn't need to be afraid of us.

That he can trust us.

- Hey Bandit.

You missed me?

- Just keep talking to him.

Keep him calm.

- Good boy

- Hello Dr. Lowe.

Hay Caitlin.

Is Griffen here?

(horse neighing)

- Yeah. I don't like her either.

- Hey, looks great.

- Well, you could say i figured out egg-xactly

how to start the eggs-pirement

(Taylor laughs)

You laughed.

- Well it's hard not to.

You are funny.

- According to the computer it should work here.

- Are you okay?

- Extremely.

- You've never had a saddle on before. Have you boy.

- Kristan?

Hey, it's going great.

No, all I do is smile and laugh at his stupid jokes.

Yeah. Then egg head does all the work.

And I get an A. So I don't fail the class.

- Hey, you know what?

You're a creep. I know exactly what you're doing.

Why don't you just do your own project

instead of stealing his?

I don't have to take this from a juvenile delinquent.

- Taylor, where are you going?

We're not finished yet.

- Oh yes we are.

- What'd you say to her?

- She was using you to get an A

I heard her on the phone.

- You don't know what you're talking about, Taylor.

Just stay out of my life.

No wonder no one wants you.

I wish she never came here.

- So this steer runs under the clothes line,

out of the yard.

And on to the main street, Emma is screaming.

Help, help, but we think she's hurt.

But get this.

It turns out the steer had run off

with her red strapless dress

hanging off its horns.

- I've seen that red dress.

Probably looks better on the steer.

(group laughing)

So how was your day?

- Her day was fine.

- I did you a favor.

- I didn't ask you to.

- She's just using you.

- She thinks I'm funny.

- Who?

- You're so blind. She's a scheming little jerk.

- Who?

- She's not a jerk.

She thoughtful, she's popular

and she has really great hair. You're just jealous.

- What is going on?

- You are diluted

- No I'm happy and you're not.

just cause your life stinks. Don't try to ruin mine

- Griffen.

- Caitlin

Well, actually fighting is good.

It means that they're getting close.

- Any closer and we'd have world w*r three.

- They all pretend to be really nice, but they're not.

They're two faced and they turn on you.

Even when you're trying to do something nice,

you're the only one I trust.

And if you trusted me, You'd let me ride you.

Do you trust me?

Don't you boy?

Easy.

Good boy.

(horse neighing)

(dramatic music)

No, no

- Caitlin.

Are you okay?

Don't get up.

Does it hurt?

- I'm fine.

- How about here?

Your knees, your legs?

- Look. I said I'm okay.

I don't need you to take care of me.

- That was really dangerous.

You spooked him.

- But he likes me.

I know he does.

- He's just not ready for you to ride him.

You force yourself on them. You can't do that to an animal.

Just the same as you can't do it to a person.

(gentle rock music)

- Your sneaker is untied.

I said...

Fine. Don't tie it.

But don't blame me. When you fall on your face.

- I'm not going to fall on my face.

Unless you have something to do with it.

- Where's your cousin? I thought she did all your talking.

- No, now I do my own. Sometimes I do too much.

My dad said it's a nervous habit.

- Do I make you nervous?

- No, not at all.

You know, there's no real proof.

She's my cousin, by the way.

And even if she is all families have genetic weak link.

She can't be mad at me for-

- I'm not mad at you.

- You're not?

- No.

I think we make a great team.

This is for you, to attach the harness to the carrier.

My belly tights are way stronger than last bands.

- What an awesome idea.

- If you went to law school one day, that'd be amazing.

Do you want my blush?

- No, I'm good.

You know, I could save the world if I do environmental

But entertainment laws. Well, they weren't my style.

Well, if it isn't little orphan, Annie.

- See ya.

- You don't have that A yet.

- Is that a threat?

You don't know who you're dealing with.

- Neither do you.

- Come here, boy.

Look what I got.

I'm not going to ride you.

Come on don't be scared.

(fast phased music)

Boy.

You really hold a grudge.

- Okay kids let them wreck.

Okay gentlemen.

- One.

- Two.

- Yes.

- Yes.

- Yes.

- Yes.

- It's cooked,

So are you.

That's Eric and Brett.

Goose egg.

- Nice going.

I told you that was cheating.

- I know.

- Oh, very good.

A tension float.

What inspired it?

- We really wanted to put like form and function together.

- Oh very good Taylor, very good.

- Good cracking, tough girl.

- Come on.

Yes.

Beautiful.

- Well go down and see if it's cracked.

- But It was good. Right?

- Wind 15 degrees out of the Northwest temperature, 72.

- C'mon Griffen let's do it.

- Perfect.

- Griff.

Hey, tough girl.

Are you okay.

(Taylor laughs)

- How could you?

- Oh don't worry. We'll get an A minus for egg-xecution.

(Taylor laughs)

- It's on her hair.

- Don't.

- I didn't know she was going to do it.

- You're so cool now, right?

- You got your little blondie.

- I told you, I didn't know.

- Didn't know what?

That she's a user?

Who treats people like-

- Enough.

But She wanted me, me to be her partner.

She's the coolest girl ever. And for two and a half days,

I was cool too.

Look, I know you don't understand

cause you don't want to be liked,

but I do.

There you think I'm a dork?

- No.

I just...

I didn't want her to mess with you.

- But I did.

Or at least I thought it was okay if she did,

as long as I was cool.

It was me who had to find out

she was a scheming little jerk.

Yeah.

(soft guitar music)

(crow crowing)

(horse neighing)

- Am I forgiven?

- Okay, go really gently with him.

- Hey, Bandit.

- You okay?

You not too scared?

- No.

- Okay.

Put this on.

Okay now Put your foot in the stirrup.

Just like we practiced.

(horse neighing)

(soft guitar music)

- Yes.

- Hey, you look like you just lost your best friend.

- 'Cause of Taylor got a B minus on the egg drop.

- Well.

Maybe next time.

You'll handle things a little bit differently.

- Yeah. We'll use grade A eggs.

(upbeat music)

- People don't like being alone.

That's why Griffen let himself be used by Taylor.

Deep down, he knew what she was doing,

but he just couldn't admit it to himself.

Me and Bandit are different.

If someone's going to use us, we'd rather be alone,

but that's not going to happen.

You know, Bandit, I've never said this to anyone before,

but I think we're gonna be friends for a very long time.
