"PILOT"
(1x01)
SCENE 1: "THE BRIDGE" -
JAMIE SCOTT VOICEOVER:
"Adam Bede once wrote...See the difference between the impression a man makes on you when you walk by his side in familiar talk..."
Jamie, who is dribbling a ball down the bridge, is now 17 years of age.
"Or look at him in his home, and the figure he makes when seen from a lofty historical level, or even in the eyes of a critical neighbor..."
Jamie finishes dribbling the ball and comes face to face with TREE HILL HIGH.
"Who thinks of him as an embodied system or opinion rather than as a man"
SCENE 2: "TREE HILL HIGH" - "JAMIE'S LOCKER"
Jamie is at his locker now. Jamie is searching for something then a pair of hands cover his face.
"Guess who?..." a familiar voice states.
A smile comes across Jamie's face, he knows who the girl is, but he wants to joke around with her a bit, so he simply replies...
"Um...Andre?" Jamie lets out, jokingly...letting a laugh leap out of his mouth.
The girl immediately slaps him playfully on the the shoulder.
"Wow, and here I thought Andre was a friend, now I guess he's competition" the girl states, letting the same amount of laughter out as well.
"Madison I missed you so much over the summer" Jamie states to the girl who is now revealed as Madison.
Madison smiles and hugs him.
"I missed you too...and speaking of Andre have you seen him yet?" Madison asked Jamie.
Jamie looked confused, he and Andre hadn't spoke since last week.
"Nope, but I should get to the gym...the coach said he had something important to talk with me about"
Jamie and Madison share one more kiss as they part their ways.
SCENE 3: "KAREN'S CAFE"
Haley is wiping off crumbs that surround the counter.
"Where's a mouse when you need one" Haley states, joking of course.
Brooke immediately walks in with her twin boys by her side.
"Jude, Davis, one muffin that's it!" Brooke politely states, but still has that stern manor added to it.
Haley looks up from the counter to see her friend.
"Brooke!...Thank god you are here, these crumbs are taking over" Haley shouted as she pulled the girl into a hug.
"Well I hope I got here in time" Brooke lets out.
Haley and Brooke pull apart and Brooke stares at the cafe.
"I can't believe we actually have been running Karen's cafe for...for..." Brooke says, searching for the words.
"Ever!" Haley adds, seeing how much Brooke is struggling.
"My words exactly" Brooke adds.
SCENE 4: "TREE HILL HIGH GYM"
Jamie notices Andre standing on the otherside of the gym and runs over to him.
"Andre?...dude I haven't seen you since last week" Jamie whisperes, wanting to make sure his friend was okay.
Andre wipes his eyes.
"Yeah...I've been thinking about something, it's nothing really" Andre states as he makes his way to the bleachers.
Jamie was about to walk away, but he remembered that everyone has something to hide.
"Dude, really I've known you long enough to know when something is wrong?" Jamie whispers, sitting down on one of the bleachers.
Andre looks at Jamie, Jamie was a true friend...he was like a brother to Andre.
"It's just I found out that my mother has cancer...and...I've already lost my brother, I can't lose her too" Andre whispers.
Andre starts to cry and then Jamie motions for the coach to come over.
"What's wrong Andre?" a familiar person states.
Andre doesn't say anything and the coach motions for him to go to his office, he then looks at Jamie.
"Thanks uncle Lucas...I mean coach" Jamie states, messing up Lucas's position name.
Lucas doesn't think anything of it and doesn't mind being there for one of his players.
SCENE 5: "SAWYER-SCOTT RESIDENCE"
Peyton is unpacking.
"Sawyer have you finished unpacking?" Peyton asks her daughter.
Sawyer appears around the corner,
"Yes m'am...but Lily isn't" Sawyer lets out.
Sawyer runs back upstairs as Lily rounds the corner and comes face to face with Peyton's stern look of worry.
"You okay?" Peyton asks Lily.
"No, because...I want my mom...it's like she always talked about being there for my first day of high school" Lily whispers as she is pouring a bowl of cereal.
"Well me and Lucas decided to let you skip school for today...we thought maybe it would help you deal with the move" Peyton stated, trying to reason with the girl.
Lily only lets out a sigh or relief as she stares out of the window.
SCENE 6: "TREE HILL HIGH" - "DETENTION"
Desirae walks into the detention room, she is on the phone, talking to Madison.
"Yeah Madison, I'll call you back...yeah I have to turn in this summer assignment" Desirae states into the phone as she hangs up.
Carlos coughs, getting her attention.
"Mr. Evigan isn't here right now" Carlos lets out.
Desirae's eyes immediately fall on Carlos.
"Well thank you captain obvious..." Desirae states about to walk out.
Carlos snickers a bit before speaking,
"I guess it's true what they say..." Carlos says hopping off the top of the desk.
Desirae stops.
"What's true? And who's they?" Desirae asks.
"Come on nearly everyone that doesn't you...they say how stuck up and self-centered you are" Carlos speaks his mind all of a sudden.
"Oh wow, this coming from a person that's known me for what?...3 minutes." Desiare tells him off.
"That may be true, but I've known you for years now" Carlos tells her.
Carlos walks by Desirae and out of the door.
SCENE 7: "OUTSIDE OF KAREN'S CAFE"
Celia is walking to the doors of Karen's Cafe.
"Oh, I'm sorry we're closed, I'm just locking up" Jamie lets out, apologizing to the girl.
"Oh that's okay...I guess I'll have to get my coffee somewhere else" Celia lets out as she is about to walk away.
Jamie stops her,
"Hey wait...I think I can make you a quick coffee, you seem like the type of girl that isn't a crook" Jamie playfully states.
"You better be carefull J. Scott, you never know who is a crook these days" Celia adds, to the joke.
Jamie unlocks the door and they both go inside of Karen's Cafe.
SCENE 8: "MADISON'S HOME"
Madison enters her home and looks around.
"Mom...you here?" Madison shouts.
Madison then discovers a note.
"Madison, this is mom...I know I'm not home, but there's a reason I got an opportunity to expand the business to New York, so you know me I can't turn down an offer like that", Madison finishes reading the note and slumps down to the floor.
JAMIE VOICEOVER:
"In life, there are many things that we have to learn in order to let go. We have to let go of situations, things, memories, people and even ourselves."
SCENE 9: "RIVERCOURT"
Andre is sitting on a bench at the River Court, letting tears drip down his face.
JAMIE VOICEOVER:
"However, there are times where you or that person has changed to the extent that it's necessary to let go of the relationship or friendship, so that each of you can fulfill your life path".
SCENE 10: "JAMES RESIDENCE"
Haley opens the door to her home, Lydia immediately runs up to her.
"Hey mommy!" Lydia shouts.
Haley hugs her daughter.
JAMIE VOICEOVER:
"Letting go of your old self and the process of letting the new you emerge can be one of the scariest experiences in your life. But by leaving behind your old self and taking a leap of faith into the unknown,..."
"Hey you!" Haley lets out.
"Is that your mom?" a voice shouts from the other room.
"Yes and how is my husband?" Haley asks as she hugs a man, who by the way is not Nathan Scott.
This man is named Victor. Haley and Victor then share a kiss.
JAMIE VOICEOVER FINAL:
"It might just reveal what you are truly capable of becoming".
