[music playing]
(SINGING) Something tells me I've been dreaming
of someone who was never real.
It seems I've changed 1,000 ways.
I wish I looked the way I feel.
Brace face.
My life is complicated.
Boyfriend.
Don't want to talk about it.
Teenage.
I'll work it out in the end.
[vocalizing]
Brace face.
My life get's complicated.
Boyfriend.
Don't want to talk about it.
Teenage.
I'll work it out in the end.
Brace face.
Where to now?
Life Cycles, or a movie?
Life cycles.
Movie.
Oh look, Alden and Marlo.
Hi guys.
They can't hear you.
They're in smoochy face mode.
Romantic, isn't he?
Come on.
It's a bit much all the time.
[kissing sounds]
I mean, he wasn't like that when he was going out with you.
Brilliant, Leighton.
Oh, that's not what I meant.
Could you get that for me?
No problem.
Ugh, ignore him.
Sometimes his mouth bypasses his brain.
I'm OK, really.
Are you sure?
Oh yeah.
I'm totally over Alden.
But, there is this other guy.
Who?
Not now, Brock's coming back.
I can toss this into the woods.
That'll give us an extra five minutes. (LAUGHS)
What?
[music playing]
Oh, the one with that cute little
gap between his front teeth?
No, no, no the new guy with the hair.
Sharon, all the guys in school have hair.
But not like this.
It's really, really dark.
Almost a blue black.
You talking about Bailey?
You see?
Marla knows who I mean.
Sorry.
Doesn't matter.
Just look for him when you get out on the ice.
Yeah.
He's the one with the hair.
That's it, I'm out of here before I
catch what you do have.
Crush?
Major.
And you know something, it may be my imagination
and I could be wrong.
But--
Yes?
I think it's possible he may have sort of noticed me too.
I'll watch him during the game to see how he acts around you.
Thanks.
Should I take this off?
No, why?
Alden gave it to me for my birthday.
I'm afraid it might come off while we're playing.
Here, just wear it on the inside.
Good thinking.
[music playing]
Hi.
Hi.
I saw that.
He's definitely interested.
What?
Sorry I'm late.
I--
Alden!
Oh no.
Is he OK?
I think so.
But we better call an ambulance.
I'll go.
I can't believe I did that.
It's not your fault.
SHARON SPITZ (VOICEOVER): It was mine.
If it wasn't for my stupid braces,
Alden would never have been hurt.
[somber music]
Here, I brought you some juice.
Thanks.
I was a nurse or someone would come out and tell us how he is.
Yeah.
He's been in there for ages.
Well, they're probably giving him a million tests.
Hi, folks.
I'm Dr. Fletcher.
Is he OK?
You can stop worrying.
Your friend is fine.
Oh, good.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, phew.
Great.
Does that mean he can leave soon?
Any minute now.
He's been asking for his girlfriend.
Aw, that's so romantic.
Yes, is Sharon here?
Sharon?
SHARON SPITZ (VOICEOVER): The doctor said Alden was fine.
But, obviously he wasn't.
He thought I was still his girlfriend.
What was going on?
There's something wrong.
Alden and I broke up months ago.
Temporary memory loss.
Very common after a blow to the head.
He should be back to normal within a few days.
But, what do we do in the meantime?
Don't shock or contradict him.
If he's confronted, it could be traumatic
and there's no predicting how he'll react.
So, does this mean I'm supposed to let him
think I'm still his girlfriend?
It's probably for the best.
And after his memory comes back,
will he remember any of this?
Nope.
The next few days will be gone forever.
There he is.
Hi, guys.
How are you?
Hi.
Dude.
Aw, you must have been really worried.
I'm so sorry.
[music playing]
You're sure you're OK with it?
Positive.
The important thing is Alden.
Act normal, here he comes.
Hi.
Boy, you guys sure seem happy this morning.
We're, um, looking forward to English class.
Yeah, the joy of dangling participles.
You coming?
In a sec.
I'll see you in class.
Whoa.
Don't look.
I told you not to look.
I couldn't help it.
It was automatic.
Oh, but you're right.
He does have great hair.
I know.
But, if he thinks I'm Alden's girlfriend,
he'll never ask me out.
Which is too bad because I think he might
even be boyfriend material.
Well so tell him the truth.
No.
Just because I think he might like me doesn't mean
he actually does.
If I tell him, it'll be obvious I think he's interested.
And that's totally uncool.
It took a minute, but I think I know what you meant.
[music playing]
Hey, we're over here.
What are you doing?
He doesn't know a lot of people.
I invited him to play with us.
But, uh, that'll make 6.
And that's bad because--
It's unlucky.
Right.
We'll divide into teams.
I'll play with Sharon and Marlo at that empty way over there.
Hold on, 6 isn't unlucky.
It isn't?
No.
You're thinking a 13.
Oh, right.
Got the shoes and I'm ready to roll.
Great.
Woo-hoo, all right!
ALDEN: Good one.
Oh, excuse me.
I lost my watch.
Help me look for it?
[music playing]
Which way are you going?
I live about six blocks from the mall.
That's on my way.
I could walk you home if you want.
Oh, are you sure?
Because--
I live that way too.
Maybe you could walk me home.
But, I'm walking you.
Yeah, but I need both of you because I'm walking Marlo.
Right, whatever she says.
Why would you need both--
Because I do.
I'll explain later, OK?
OK.
See you later.
What's with Maria?
She's been acting kind of weird, don't you think?
Really?
I hadn't noticed.
That was fun.
We should go bowling more often.
Yes, we should.
Definitely--
Sweet dreams.
SHARON SPITZ (VOICEOVER): Note to self, avoid further kissing.
[music playing]
Hey.
Hi.
I was wondering, do you want to go to a movie or something
this weekend?
I'd love to.
ALDEN: Hey Sharon.
But, I have an essay due on Monday.
OK.
Maybe some other time.
Would next weekend be OK?
Sure.
Great.
Hey, what's with that guy?
You like him or something?
Yeah, right.
Oh, I feel guilty.
Why?
I made a date with Bailey for next weekend.
So.
I know it doesn't make sense.
I mean, Alden's not really my boyfriend.
Oh, don't worry about it.
By next weekend, everything will be back to normal,
and you won't have anything to feel guilty about.
Hey.
Hey Sharon listen, they're playing our song.
[music playing]
Aw.
Mama.
[ominous sound]
Mama.
[screaming]
Spring's my favorite time of year.
When winter's finally over.
Yeah.
But I have to admit, I'm not looking forward
to the end of hockey season.
Hockey, right.
Could I ask you a question?
sh**t.
What do you think of Marlo?
I don't know.
She's a good hockey player.
Right.
But, what do you think of her?
I mean, do you like her?
Sure, don't you?
Of course.
Feel like a snack?
What am I doing?
Uh, kissing me good night?
But, I shouldn't be.
Why not?
Because I (SNEEZES) Oh, I'm catching a cold.
No kissing until I get better.
[door slams]
Whatever you say.
SHARON SPITZ (VOICEOVER): And it felt so right kissing Alden.
Was like falling in love with him again?
I still hadn't forgotten how bad it felt when we broke up.
How was I going to forget the past few days?
[music playing]
Aw, I got to run.
Brock wants to play me a new song he wrote.
Just go, I'll see you guys later at Life Cycles.
Thanks.
Um, Sharon.
About this whole thing with Alden.
I think I've been pretty cool so far.
But, it's starting to get to me.
Really?
Yeah.
I know you're pretending to be his girlfriend.
But honestly, it doesn't look like you're pretending.
I guess maybe I should pull back.
Not only for me, but for yourself.
What are you going to do when his memory comes back?
You're right.
That's exactly what I'm going to do.
Starting now.
Hi.
Hi.
I was thinking, if you want to cancel
our date for next weekend, I'm cool with that.
Why would I want to cancel?
Unless you do.
Well, you do have a boyfriend.
No I don't.
Well, you and Alden look pretty tight.
That's because we used to go out.
But, we don't anymore.
We're just really good friends.
Hey, where are you going?
We're supposed to meet Brock and Maria Life Cycles, remember?
That's right.
But, uh, uh, (SNEEZES) My cold, it's getting a lot worse.
But, you've been fine all day.
I know.
Comes and goes.
Weird, huh?
Oh look, it's Marlo.
Everyone's meeting at Life Cycles.
I can't go because of my cold.
But, you should.
Remember you were telling me at lunch you're in the mood
to wash your Jersey?
Oh, right.
Have fun, don't worry about me. (COUGHS)
See you guys tomorrow.
[music playing]
ALDEN (ON PHONE): Hi, it's me.
I was just wondering how you're doing.
I hope you're feeling better.
Anyway, I was on my way home from Life Cycles
and I wanted to know if you need anything.
No.
ALDEN (ON PHONE): Anyway, call me if you do,
and I'll drop it off.
OK?
Bye.
[music playing]
[meow]
I know you like it, but the last thing I need right now
is another reminder of Alden.
Sharon?
Yes.
Got a sec?
Sure, what's up?
I was just wondering how it's going with you and Alden.
Oh fine.
This whole girlfriend, boyfriend thing is getting to be a drag.
But, other than that, everything's cool.
Well, it's only for another day or so.
You do know his memory is going to return, right?
Of course.
Is that may be why this whole girlfriend,
boyfriend thing is a drag?
Alden and I have been getting along better than ever.
And it doesn't mean anything.
You're right sweetie, it isn't fair.
You know the worst of it?
He won't remember any of it.
Not one thing.
But you will.
I know it's hard to believe, but even though you'll remember,
you won't feel like this forever.
[music playing]
You playing hockey today?
I don't think so.
OK, but in case you change your mind,
we're starting in half an hour.
Thanks.
See ya.
Sharon.
What's up?
What do you mean?
I don't know, you've been acting kind of strange lately.
Strange?
How?
Like there's something you're not telling me.
But, there's nothing to tell.
You sure?
Yeah.
Because it really looks like you have a thing for Bailey.
That's not it.
Honest.
Then what is it?
Nothing.
I keep telling you.
OK, then why have you been avoiding me?
Avoiding you?
I'm not avoiding you.
It's just, uh, my cold.
(COUGHS)
Come on, I've seen you with a cold before.
You sneeze nonstop, your nose gets all red,
and you stay in bed until you feel better.
Well, this time it's different.
That's all.
All right.
But, you're my girlfriend.
And I love you.
[school bell rings]
If something's bothering you, I should know what it is.
You just said you love me.
Yeah.
You've never said that before, ever.
I know.
But just because I never said it,
doesn't mean I don't feel it.
And you never said it either.
Does that mean you don't feel it?
I, uh--
It's OK, you can tell me.
I just want to know the truth.
Oh, Alden I--
Ready for the game?
Oh, hi.
The game.
You going?
Yeah, sure.
Sharon?
SHARON SPTIZ: I don't know.
I haven't decided.
Maybe I will.
Maybe I won't.
[music playing]
I'm sorry, what were we talking about?
Oh, I forget.
Couldn't have been very important.
Hey, don't we have a game today?
Yeah, we do.
So, have you decided?
Yeah, I think I'll just go home.
SHARON SPITZ (VOICEOVER): It was over.
But, Alden had told me he loved me.
I was never going to forget that.
SHARON SPTIZ: And so, I don't know.
I think we should maybe cancel our date for next weekend.
Sure, if that's what you want.
It's just that until I figure out
how I feel about this other person,
it wouldn't be fair to you.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
Good luck, Alden seems like a really nice guy.
Alden?
Who said anything about Alden?
No one.
I just thought--
I told you, Alden and I are just friends.
Really.
I believe you.
Good.
And when you figured it all out, let me know.
I will.
He doesn't believe me.
You canceled?
After all the trouble we went to?
Ugh, what about his hair?
I know, I know.
I just-- I don't think it's the right time for a boyfriend.
It was a date.
One date.
Who said anything about a boyfriend?
One thing leads to another, you know that.
Sometimes I don't understand you.
Oh look, Alden and Marlo.
Hi.
Hi you guys.
Hey, how you doing?
Great day, huh?
We're just heading over to Life Cycles.
Want to come?
No, it's too nice to be inside.
Yeah, I don't want to waste a minute of spring.
That's right.
Your favorite time of year, right?
Right.
OK, see you guys later.
Bye.
[music playing]
Oh, look.
The moon is really bright tonight.
ALDEN (VOICEOVER): You're my girlfriend, and I love you.
Yeah.
