Previously on Laguna Beach…

Kristin: (V.O.) (Shows the night Jason and Cedric played the prank on the girls) It was obvious Jason was trying to get closer to Alex.

Alex M: I accept your apology. 

Jason: Come here. (They hug)

Kristin: (V.O.) Up till then, Alex was pretty much innocent in the whole thing. (Shows Alex M and Jason outside) But that was about to change.

Alex H: (On their girls’ night) No you can’t trust him.

Kristin: (V.O.) And Jessica was finally starting to wise up.

Jessica: (She and Jason are outside her house) Are you lying?

Jason: No.

Jessica: Swear?

Jason: Yeah.

Kristin: (V.O.) (Shows Talan and Taylor’s dinner) As for Talan, he had finally moved in on his longtime crush Taylor.

Talan: Every girl I try to date, I compare to you, but there’s no comparison.

Kristin: (V.O.) But I think he was getting tired of her good girl act.

Talan: (Shows Kristin’s birthday party) This is to Kristin. Happy birthday Kristin. (She blows him a kiss. Then them hanging out)

Taylor: Oh perfect, perfect. Even more perfect. (It shows the boys get out of the water. The girls put silly string on the car)

Alex M: We’re doing “Ha ha” right here. (The boys start to come up.)

Morgan S: Put all the trash on the top of the car. (They do that as the boys walk up the stairs. Taylor goes to look) Did you see them?

Taylor: They’re coming, they’re coming. (The girls run and hide as the boys come to the car)

Alex M: Taylor hurry.

Jason: Oh my god. Oh! The car got so f**ked up!

Talan: Dude is that paint?

Cedric: Is this from that night when we put blood on their windows + stuff?

Jason: Talan wasn’t even there. (The girls come out and spray them with silly string. Talan and Jason move so mostly Cedric gets hit. Taylor puts it down Talan’s shirt)

Cedric: That’s real funny guys. Who’s gonna pick all this up?

Morgan S: Not us.

Taylor: Okay guys leave.

Alex H, Kristin, and Jessica are in there.

Jessica: I sat in Jason’s car and looked through his whole entire phone book. Every single text message, every single call log.

Alex H: “Who’s that?”

Kristin: Yeah and you’re like…”Oh my god”.

Jessica: I’m not like that yet.

Alex H: Yet. (They all laugh)

Jessica: Today Kelly comes up to me and is like “Jessica, I’m so mad at you” and I was like “Why?” And she goes, “Because you were always the girl who’s like if a guy cheats on you, if that’s it, they’re cut, they’re done, like no more”. I’m like “I’m still like that Kelly”. She’s like “Really? Well then what about Jason?” And I’m like “There’s no proof that he cheated on me”. And if I went by what everyone said, I’d be broken up with him right now. (Kristin rolls her eyes.)

Alex H: Wow. That’s gonna be fun.

Jessica: The only reason I’m going is ‘cause Jason’s gonna be there you know?

Alex H: Right.

Jessica: Like I don’t wanna be with all of them. Although, whenever Jason’s around…

Alex H: Yeah he gets all tense and doesn’t know how to act.

Jessica: Oh my god.

Casey: Poor Jason.

Cedric: Poor Jason? Poor…

Alex H: Poor Jessica.

Jessica: What do you mean you don’t know?

Jason: Well it doesn’t come off like that.

Jessica: That I don’t want to be with you? How does it not come off like that when you’re the one who doesn’t call me and you’re the one who doesn’t do anything?

Jason: All right then we’ll solve it.

Cedric: What are they talking about?

Talan: Yeah. You think I care about you?  

Kristin: Oh my god. What’s up with you and Taylor?

Talan: Me and Taylor? What?

Kristin: Do you guys have a little thing or something?

Talan: I don’t even know. Taylor, I don’t get her. She’s probably one of the girls I’ve never got. Honestly, it’s like a tease, that’s like not a tease. Because she like…

Kristin: You’ve always had that little thing for her though.

Talan: It’s a waste of time.

Kristin: Yeah. Well…

Talan: You know what sucks?  Is I’m like the nice guy who finishes last. You know what I mean? And like I try to play games, I used to know how to play games.

Kristin: I play games.

Talan: Oh yeah you do. (She laughs) Yeah you do. But see I know your games that’s the funny thing.

Kristin: Yeah you go but like…

Talan: But I’ve known you for like five years.

Kristin: Yeah. I can’t believe it.

Talan: At my house that one night?

Kristin: What night?

Talan: The first night.

Kristin: That’s so weird.

Talan: I don’t know.

CUT TO: Road

Talan is skateboarding with his friend JP.

Talan: I’ve been hanging out with Kristin a lot lately, like we hooked up. Basically we were at my house, sitting on my deck you know, like looking at the stars and chilling and like it was like late at night after we went to dinner + like I started kissing her.

JP: No, no, no. You know what? Here’s the deal. This is how I feel about Kristin. She is like super cool but like you couldn’t really like get too, too…

Talan: Well like the way that Kristin is she’s got so much confidence that she knows she can get every guy. Like that’s as soon as she like backs off. It’s like “All right I got Talan”.

JP: Oh yeah.

Talan: You know what I mean?

JP: Chicks do that so much.

Talan: Dude that’s so lame.

JP: That’s what they do. The guy has no interest in them and then they can like hook him and like once the guy’s hooked, and like starts getting amped on the chick, then they’re like “Okay, I move to a new guy”.

Talan: Well it’s like, it’s like conquer you know what I’m saying? (They high five)

Kristin: Talan…

Alex H: Talan has made like the biggest transition I think. I wanna hear about your dinner Kristin. Was it like a fun dinner?

Kristin: I don’t know. It’s a lose/lose situation with that boy. (She laughs) I’m just kidding.

Alex H: I feel bad for him.

Kristin: Why?

Alex H: Because you mess with his mind.

Kristin: No I don’t Alex. (They laugh) No I don’t.

Alex H: I mean you don’t do it to like…

Kristin: I don’t do it on purpose. I just…I think…I don’t know.

Alex H: You guys have that kind of relationship where you can do that.

Kristin: Yeah.

Alex H: But he can’t do it to you. (Kristin laughs) Kristin!

Kristin: But I do. I f**k with his head and that’s not good for his little, you know little heart.

Alex H: But it’s not because…you like flirting with him and like kissing him and stuff like it really doesn’t help him because then he doesn’t want to date other people because then he thinks you like him.

CUT TO: The Beach

Taylor and Talan are talking.

Talan: You and Kristin? You’d go “What? Don’t compare me to Kristin”.

Taylor: Oh Talan you like her. You like her…

Talan: I don’t like her.

Taylor: You’re like “I don’t like because she won’t be with me”. Oh my…

Talan: Well that’s true.

Taylor: You said that. You’d be with Kristin?

Talan: Taylor…

Taylor: You’d be with her if she would be?

Talan: Yeah ‘cause I couldn’t get anyone else.

Taylor: Oh my…That’s just… Okay then go be with a whore. Go be with Kristin.

Talan: Taylor you’re being so mean to me right now.

Taylor: ‘Cause I care about you. It’s not like I’m like “F**k you”. Don’t do that.

Talan: Why do you care about me?

Taylor: Why do you care about me Talan?

Talan: I don’t.

Taylor: Okay.

Talan: You know that I’ve been so…

Taylor: You can say whatever you want to say. You don’t act like it.

Talan: I don’t act like it? I don’t act like it.

Taylor: You don’t act like it. You won’t say…this is such bull s**t.

Talan: I do! I am real. I’m just…I guess I do care about you but I don’t want to admit it. ‘Cause when I admit it all I do is kid myself and I’m just doing something…

Taylor: You’re kidding yourself?

Talan: I’m totally kidding myself. Because all I’m doing is I’m caring about some girl that I’m never gonna be with I’m never gonna have any intimate relationship with.

Taylor: Because you hook up with girls like her.

Talan: Listen to me. Just listen to what I’m gonna say.

Taylor: Because you want girls that are not like me.

Talan: Taylor you know I’ve done everything I could do in my power and it’s retarded. Listen. What do you want me to do? I’ve tried so many times. I told you how I feel all the way to the point where it’s like sad and I’m like crying to myself. What happens? Nothing. Nothing’s ever happened after that. So why am I gonna do it again? Why am I gonna get involved? I don’t wanna crash and burn Taylor. Look you know that I care.  You honestly know that I care. Even if I said I didn’t care a million times over you know I care.

Taylor: I hate you so much.

Talan: Why? I love you I don’t hate you. I don’t love you I L-U-V you. (They get up and leave. As they walk Taylor puts her arm around Talan and kisses his cheek then rubs his back.
