One Tree Hill, Season 6

One Tree Hill (2003-2012) is an American teen television drama airing on The WB (now The CW) in the United States.

Haley:
[in class] You know what? Um...you guys asked me what the point was to all of this, school, literature...life. And, uh I said there was no point. And that's not true. What I should have said was, "I don't know". Because the truth is, not long ago, I sat where you are and wondered exactly the same things. When something that's tragic and evil and unexplainable happens, like losing someone forever...I still wonder, just like you do. Alright, everybody, get out a piece of paper and pen.

Samantha:
Why?

Haley:
Because this is a literature class. When archaeologists uncover lost civilizations and they unearth their worlds that have long been since been destroyed, you know what they find most often? They find stories, ancient languages, words, inscriptions from people who have been gone for thousand of years, because chances are, like you, they wanted to know, "Whats the point?" And they wanted us to know that they were here, you know? Like they told their stories, and they tried to make sense of their lives and their worlds and their tragedies. So that's what we are gonna do. So I want you to write something, anything at all, about Quentin Fields. If you knew him, write a favorite memory. If you didn't know him, write what you think the point is of all this for yourself and your life and your time here. This is a literature class and that's what writers do. We put pen to paper in times of devastating tragedy. And we try and make sense of it. Maybe we will find some clarity in some of those words. Maybe we will find peace.

[Haley takes a marker and writes on Quentin's desk:
"He who does not weep, does not see."

Brooke:
: Who is it

Nathan:
: Nathan.

Brooke:
: Hi, Nate. Come in. It’s a tough day, huh?

Nathan:
: Yeah.

Brooke:
: I wish there was something I could do for you or Haley or Jamie.

Nathan:
: Well, actually we were wondering if there’s anything we could do for you.

Brooke:
: How do you mean? Why me?

Nathan:
: We know that your mom has been pulling some stuff with the company, and I don’t know, I guess having dealt with parent insanity I wanted to check your head. See how you’re doing.

Brooke:
: I’m fine. Really.

Nathan:
: That sounds like something I would say. Look, this thing with losing Quentin, it-it’s hard. And I have a feeling its gonna be a pretty prominent thing in our lives for a while, but that doesn’t mean that your problems are any less important, that all of us aren’t here for you.

Brooke:
: Look, like I said...

Nathan:
: You’re fine. You can handle it. Its all good. Look, I hope that’s true and maybe it is but the thing is, the two of us have been down very similar roads. We were in the same cliques first, we both felt the same pressures, the same expectations. Our parents were like children and we both grew into kind of bad versions of ourselves way too fast. So I think you know I get it.

Brooke:
They never really gave us a chance did they? Our parents?

Nathan:
: They didn’t know how. Look, the thing is, you made your dream happen, alright? And even though I didn’t quite get there, when it was taken away from me I dealt with it alone. That was stupid, selfish, and wrong. So if your mom tries to take your dream away from you and you feel the same pain I did, I’ve sorta been there, okay? And I’m gonna be kind of pissed off if you don’t come talk to me about it. Anyway, thank you for coming today. It means a lot. I know you didn’t know Quentin, but it doesn’t surprise me that you’re thinking of other people when all this stuff is going on with you. That’s not bad for a girl who never had a chance. Come here.

Brooke:
I caught a young girl shoplifting the other day. I was pretty hard on her.

Psychologist:
Did you feel threatened by her?

Brooke No, I actually felt myself feeling jealous. I realize I let company matter too much. You know, we spend all this time building something up, And then we don't enjoy it. We just sit there, terrified that someone is gonna take it away from us. And there was this girl, and she didn't answer to anything or anyone. And that made me jealous.

Psychologist:
What are you going to do about that, with regards to your company?

Brooke:
Well, it doesn't matter, I don't have to worry about Clothes Over Bros anymore.

Psychologist:
And why is that?

Brooke:
I gave it all away. I signed the company over to Victoria. Do you think that I was foolish to give my company to my mother?

Psychologist:
Do you think you were foolish?

Brooke:
Do you always answer a question with another question?

Psychologist:
Does it bother you? In my humble opinion, it was never going to be your company, as long as she was part of it.

Brooke:
After I did it I felt great. At first, I felt liberated, but now I just feel kind of empty. Everything that I worked for is gone. I just have this store. And even that's empty now.

Psychologist:
That freedom you were jealous of can be scary sometimes. Have you talked to anyone else about it?

Brooke:
No. I saw my best friend today, and I couldn't bring myself to tell her.

Psychologist:
Why do you think that was?

Brooke:
I don't know. I feel a little...a little bit like I failed. You know? I am watching all my friends move on with their lives: Haley and her family, and Millicent is moving to be with Mouth, and Peyton with Lucas and they are all moving forward. And it's like I am stuck here, standing still, and...

Psychologist:
Brooke, you're 22 years old and the founder of a multi-million dollar corporation. I'd hardly call that standing still.

Brooke:
But it's gone.

Psychologist:
You will do something else. You are intelligent, you are creative. You will figure it out. But that's not the real question.

Brooke:
Then what is?

Psychologist:
All you have talked about is your work, Brooke. But when you mention your friends being happy, you define happiness strictly in terms of relationship and family. The question is, why are you so insistent on going through life alone?

Brooke:
Why are you doing this?

Julian:
Because I'm trying to figure out why you got so freaked out about what I said.

Brooke:
By examining my ex list? So I dated a few guys in New York. So what?

Julian:
You weren't in love with any of them?

Brooke:
I didn't have time for love okay? And even if I had Victoria would have never allowed it. So there it is.

Julian:
So then the last time you were in love...Now I get it.

Brooke:
Yeah. It was a long time ago. Where are you going?

Julian:
If you have more than one copy of Lucas' book I'm out of here.

Brooke:
Look I'm sorry if it's weird for you.

Julian:
You still love him?

Brooke:
No. I don't.

Julian:
Yeah. That's what Peyton said.

Brooke:
First of all. Peyton fed me that story long before she told it to you, so I've been there. And second, I love her, but I'm not Peyton.

Julian:
I'm sorry. It's just that I've already been in a relationship that had the stench of Lucas Scott hanging over it.

Brooke:
And how do you think I feel? I'm the girl who's dating the guy who came to town in the first place to get Peyton back.

Julian:
Okay not exactly true,but... point taken.

Brooke:
Yeah. it sucks always being the footnote in someone else's love story.

Julian:
But you're right you know. You're not Peyton. Lucas and Peyton's story is all about romance and destiny and fate. But you're different.

Brooke:
Um... thanks?

Julian:
Brooke Davis writes her own story like you did with your career and your company and with Sam. You choose your own path.

Brooke:
Yeah. But you can't choose who you love.

Julian:
You're right. You don't. But you choose whether or not you open your heart to love.

Brooke:
What do you want me to say?

Julian:
How about "I love you too Julian"?

Brooke:
How about. "I like you a lot"? This is all happening really fast. What happened to just having fun? And you know it's not as simple for me. I have Sam to think about.

Julian:
Don't do that.

Brooke:
What?

Julian:
Don't hide behind Sam.

Brooke:
I'm not hiding.

Julian:
Yes you are. And you want to know what I think? I think you do love me... or you could love me... but you're just too stubborn and scared to admit it because the last time you really gave your heart to someone it got broken. And I get that. I've been there. But somewhere along the line you gave up on the idea that you deserve to feel this way again. But you don't see what I see Brooke. You deserve this. So I'm gonna try one more time. I love you. I'm in love with you. I'm so lost and completely in love with you. I have been ever since I saw you doing that ridiculous Molly Ringwald dance

Brooke:
Julian...I... I care about you so much.

Julian:
Never let it be said that Brooke Davis is easy.

Brooke:
Julian.

Julian:
I'm sorry….That wasn't fair. You know what? It's okay. Someday you'll let someone in. Today's just not that day.

Brooke:
I don't want this to change anything.

Julian:
No it won't. It won't. You know you were right. It's my fault. We were just having fun and I just... you overwhelmed me a little bit…It's too soon.

Brooke:
It is a little too soon.

Julian:
Yeah. I know. I'll tell you what... why don't you go get ready for dinner? We'll pretend the last hour never happened.

Brooke:
Are you sure? I mean... can we really do that?

Julian:
Yeah. In fact in the movie business we do it all the time. It's called a deleted scene. Go pull yourself together Brooke Davis. You look a mess. I'll wait for you.

Brooke:
Okay.
