Close but Far Away (Full Episode)

            

   1x02 - CLOSE BUT FAR AWAY          1x02 Close but Far Away

Lily was walking to her locker when she saw the new Glee Club passing next to her, they were laughing as singing. She was totally in a deep funk, she had the voice, but not the confidence and she wanted it, but how much?

She was also confused about the kiss with Sissy, she liked men, she was sure of it, but with Sissy…Sissy was different, she had seen her before she defended Lily from Jamie, but after that moment she knew that Sissy was special, she was amazing.

Lily then entered to her next class, Literature, the most boring class, not because the class was boring itself, it was because her teacher was 90 years old and most of the class he spent it telling stories, so she could easily take a break and rest, after all, her seat was at the behind part of the room.

-Good Morning class, pay attention, I’m telling you today a story when I was young, even younger than you-her teacher said, but she couldn’t hear the rest, she was starting to feel asleep…

Liliana woke up in a backyard full of flowers and lights, that wasn’t her Literature classroom without a doubt…

-Liliana-She heard a voice in her back, more like a whisper. When she turned back she was Sissy, wearing a long white dress >She looks beautiful<  Lily thought, in that moment she realized that she was also wearing a dress, a red one, similar to Sissy’s…

-What are we doing here?-Lily asked

-Whatever you want, you have full control-Sissy replayed

-Lily then walked away from her fantasy place as Skyfall by Adele starting playing out of nowhere…

Liliana: This is the end Hold your breath and count to ten Feel the earth move and then hear my heart burst again Sissy then joined… Liliana with Sissy: For this is the end I've drowned and dreamt this moment So overdue I owe them Swept away, I'm stolen Sissy then held Lily’s hand and they started dancing slowly…

Sissy and Liliana: Let the sky fall When it crumbles We will stand tall Face it all together

Let the sky fall When it crumbles We will stand tall Face it all together At skyfall That skyfall Sissy then walked away…

Liliana: (Let the sky fall When it crumbles We will stand tall)

Liliana (Sissy) Let the sky fall (let the sky fall) When it crumbles (when it crumbles) We will stand tall (we will stand tall) Face it all together At skyfall

Sissy: Let the sky fall We will stand tall At skyfall Oh

Sissy then leaned to kiss Liliana’s cheek… and then Liliana woke up from her dream, her classroom was empty, and the class was over a long time ago.

Arfa and Becca were in the hall talking when they saw Kyler to the distance; Becca yelled at him:

-Hun!-She said-Come here!

Kyler saw them and ran into them.

-Yeah?-He asked

-Glee club!-Arfa said-10 minutes

-Oh yeah, I had forgotten about it-Kyler said hugging Becca-Let’s go, then!-He added screaming like a bad actor from a lifetime comedy show.

¬-Okay club!-James said-I think it is time to give our choir a name

Everyone shared glances and Maya screamed:

-The Maya-me Explosion!-She said proudly.

-Throat Explosion!-Shane said doing a sexual reference with his hand in his neck.

-You are gross-Sydney, his girlfriend, said.

-And that’s why you love me, right?-

-Also cocky right?-She said at the same time she kissed him

-Okay, okay guys, let’s focus-Mr. Allen said

Kyle then stood up firmly and said:

-We need a name that define us 100%-He said-That when people hear it then immediately think of us, what about The Eargasmics?-He added

-See guys?-James said-Kyle is determinate and he came out with an amazing name! Thanks Kyle-

-Your welcome-

So, everyone in favor of calling our club, The Eargasmics?-James asked

Sydney then said:

-Why we don’t add some spice? Obviously when people hear us, they will have an orgasm in their ears, but, why not give the name some sassy, what about The Eargasmix, like, with class-She said

-That is even better Sydney, thank you so much!-Mr. Allen said excited

James then asked if the name was okay for everyone, as the whole club raised their hand in signal of approve, he smiled and then said:

-Okay, the Eargasmix, from the top!-

_____________________________________________________________________________________

James was at home earlier, his reunion with Principal Marquez was cancelled so he wanted to surprise his wife with a special night, he bought everything, candles, lilies (Tori’s favorite flower) and chocolates, and he wanted it to be the best night of their lives, when he opened the principal door and called his wife, he didn’t get a response, he then left all the stuff he bought in the couch and went upstairs looking for Tori.

He then heard noises from the Visitor’s Room, he heard Tori screaming and he immediately thought she was being assaulted, he ran as fast as he could to the room and when he opened the door he was disgusted to see his wife, HIS wife, having sex with another men, James was confused, disgusted and mad…

-What the hell is going on here?-He yelled.

Tori then saw him; she covered herself as he could as the man that was with her fast ran out of the house in James’ eyes.

James then ran out trying to catch the man, but he was already gone of the house, James then came back to the room where he found out the truth, he found Tori dressing up, as she said:

-I, I’m so…James, please-She said crying

-Why?-He asked while he started to cry-I am not enough for you? I gave you everything, everything I could; flowers, romantic nights, trips, your favorite things, why?-He then cleaned his tears and added: Who are you? What are you?

Tori tried to touch James shoulder, but he took her arm with his hand: -Don’t touch me-He whispered at her-You are gross

-James, please, you have to understand-She said crying

-Understand? What should I understand? That you are a slut?-He yelled

Tori then slapped him, to regret it right after: -Oh my god, I’m so sorry, James, oh god, what have I done?-She said

-Break our marriage-He replayed-Leave my house please

-Our house-She corrected him

-It’s not yours anymore-He said crying again-Just go, GO!-He yelled

Tori walked away from the room crying and sobbing, she didn’t even knew why she was doing it, why she was cheating on James, he was a good husband, he treated her like a queen, but something was lacking, something that they lost in the way, she loved him, but that wasn’t enough for her…

Back in the visitor’s room, James was lying in the bed crying, he was devastated, as he stood up from the bed and looked in the window at his wife leaving in her car, he started singing…

James: You and me We used to be together Everyday together always I really feel That I'm losing my best friend I can't believe This could be the end It looks as though you're letting go And if it's real Well I don't want to know

While singing, James started to remember his life with Tori…

Don't speak I know just what you're saying so please stop explaining don’t tell me cause it hurts don’t speak

I know what you're thinking I don't need your reasons don’t tell me cause it hurts

Don't speak, don't, don't don't speak, oh I know what you're thinking, woah And I don't need your reasons, no babe I know you're good, I know you're good

James laid on his bed and he continued sobbing about the act…

Hush... _____________________________________________________________________________________

Becca was at her home, talking via Skype with Kyler.

-So. How are your parents doing?-Kyler asked

-Bad, I don’t know if they will be able to conciliate-She said

-I’m so sorry to hear that Becca-He replayed

-It’s alright, I just wished they could just get divorced, they don’t even talk to each other, it’s like they weren’t together anymore but the problem is that they are-

-Sometimes, divorce is the best way to end a problem like that-Kyle said

-I know sweetie, I love you so much, and I don’t know what I would do without you-

-No, I don’t know what I would do without you-Kyle said Becca smiled, but her smile faded away as she heard her parents fighting once again. Kyler heard the noise and asked her about it.

-It’s nothing, just them fighting for the 50th time in the day-

-I wish I could be next to you right now-He said

-I wish it too, I miss you-

-I miss you too-

-Well, it’s for the best, so, I have to go, my sister, Taya, is coming tonight-

-Alright, say hello to her from my part-

-I’ll do it, bye honey-

-Bye princess-

Becca smiled and turned off the computer as she walked into the shower

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Lily was in her locker making space for one more notebook as she saw Jamie coming up towards her; she knew she was going to have trouble…

-Hey Cutie-Jamie said with a seductive and sarcastic tone in his voice.

-What do you want this time Jamie?-Lily said irritated

-You know what I want, but I’m not sure if you want the same now that it turns out that you kiss girls and you like it-He said while getting closer to her.

Lily opened her eyes.

-What are you talking about?-She yelled

-Don’t lie, I saw when you kissed Peña, or are you going to deny it?-He said-am I blind?

-Yes, you are blind and also you are a jerk-Lily said

-Too bad I’m hot as hell-

Lily rolled her eyes.

-I love when you roll your eyes, it makes me want you even more-He said-You know? I want to know what flavor does Sissy’s lips have-

Jamie then leaned over Lily and kissed her, Lily pushed him away as he attempted to punch her, but another hand stopped him, when Jamie turned back he saw Kyle’s shape with Principal Marquez behind him.

-Oh, Principal, I…I was, I…-Jamie was speechless.

-Don’t say a word, and please, follow me,-the Principal said-and I will talk with your later young lady-She said referring to Lily.

As Marquez walked away with Jamie, Kyle tried to talk with Lily.

-Are you okay?-He asked

-Do you want the truth?-She asked, he said yes with his head-Well, I’m not okay at all, that guy does nothing more than pick on me and it’s frustrating, then, I got rejected in the damn Glee Club, the one you are part of, also, I’m confused about so many things-She started to cry.

-I’m so sorry to hear all that-Kyle said, but if you let all those things eat you, you won’t have any chance to make it big, you have to learn from the things you fail in, because one day, you will use everything you learned and you will succeed, I’m sure of that-He added

-Do you really think that?-Lily asked

-Hell yeah!-he said-and you know what else?

Lily said no with her head as Kyle held his hand.

-I’m going to get you into the Club, you are talented, well I think you are talented, so, let’s go-

Lily smiled and followed Kyle through the hallway.

-Wait, but, today is Thursday, there’s not club today…Lily said

-Oh darn-Kyle said as he laughed

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Kyler was at home when he heard his phone ringing, it was Becca.

-Hey Princess-He said

-I’m not Becca; I’m her sister, Taya-

Kyler was surprised to hear her; he had never before talked to her.

-Oh, alright, why are you calling me?-He asked

-It’s about my sister, and your girlfriend-

-What? Is she okay?-Kyler asked scared

-No, she isn’t, our parents told us they were getting divorced, she was okay with it at first, but then she realized everything the divorce would come with and, well, she’s very bad, she’s been in her room 5 hours, my mother tried to make her come out, but she’s there, she needs you Kyler, please, come-

-I’ll be there in 15 minutes-Kyler said, after that, he hangs the phone and dialed another number-Arfa, I need your help, bring your guitar, see you in 10 minutes-

Kyler then walked away from his house without even saying goodbye to his parents and he ride his car waiting for Arfa to come, when he saw him, he turned the car on and made him a signal to ride the car too.

-What is going on?-Arfa asked-Why you asked me to bring my guitar, where are we going?-

-There’s time enough to explain you while we travel, put your belt on- Arfa then looked at Kyle confused.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Kyler stopped in front of Becca’s house as he saw Taya outside with her parents.

-Are you sure this is going to work?-Arfa asked

-I hope so-

They said hello to Becca and Taya’s parents as they followed the latter towards Becca’s room.

-Becca, please, let me in!-Taya yelled

-GO AWAY!-They heard through the door.

-Becca! I’m Kyler, please, let me in-Kyler said-I’m with Arfa, Your best friend, and we just want to talk to you-

-NO, LEAVE!-They heard

-Becca, please, give us a chance-Arfa said

They then heard the door open and a voice saying:

-Come in, but just you two-

Taya attempted to get in, but Kyler stopped her.

-Let us talk to her, please-

Taya then sat in the couch waiting.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

-So, what do you want?-Becca asked

-Talk to you-Arfa said

-And that’s why you have a guitar?-

-Becca, please, don’t do this to us, we did nothing-Kyler said

-I know, I’m sorry, it’s just that this is not right-Becca replayed-I know that I told you that I would feel better if they just divorced but it turns out that I’m feeling like crap right now-

-Don’t worry, you’ll go through this-Arfa said-I know, that’s why I have my guitar with me

-Yes, we are here to help you out with this, you are not alone-Kyler added

-Thank you-Becca said

Arfa then started playing the guitar for an acoustic version of You Have More Friends than you know…

Arfaxad: We feel, We hear, Your pain, Your fear But we're here, To say, Who you are, Is okay

Kyler (and Arfaxad): And you don't have to go through this on your own (You're not alone)

Kyler (Arfaxad):

Arfaxad: It's gonna be okay

Becca then started to cry after the performance, she was moved by her best friends.

-Thank you so much, guys, really thank you-Becca said

-Like the song said, you have more friends than you know, we are here to support you-Arfa said

-Yes, and you know I’m going to be there for you, always-Kyler added

-Always?-Becca said

-Always-Kyler said right before kissing Becca

_____________________________________________________________________________________

-What are you saying James?-Principal Marquez was shocked to hear what James was saying.

-I’m saying that I quitting the direction of the Glee Club-James answered

-Why? You have less than a week there!-

-Well, let’s say that I’m not in the best situation in my private life, so I don’t think I could handle the pressure of an extra job, and I was actually going to ask you for my vacation period now-

-James, you are insane, you need to order your priorities, why are you doing this?-

-Familiar stuff, just don’t ask. Please, can I have my vacation period right now?-

-Well, if you want them, I have no right to take them away from you, so, I will prepare all the papers, comeback tomorrow-Marquez said

-Thank you so much Principal-

-Wait James, do you realize that you are going to have to tell all your kids, that their dream is over, right?-

James hadn’t think about it until that moment, he was in a crisis, but he wanted those kids to keep up with the dream.

-What if I get someone to take care of it?-James said-The kids can easily take care themselves.

-Well, it’s not my business, remember, win Sectionals, go to Regionals and that’s it-Marquez said-Just give Taylor what he wants

-Thank you-James replayed

_____________________________________________________________________________________

James walked into the choir room as he saw the kids sit in the chairs, he felt bad about what he was going to do.

-Hello guys-James said-first of all, I want to introduce to our newest member; Liliana Orviati! I’m glad you’re here, you showed me that you really worth it.

-Thank you so much Mr. Allen, and with your help, I’m sure I’m going to go to the top-

-About my help, I have some things to say-

The guys then stopped fooling around when they saw James’ face.

-It is very hard to do this, but I’m afraid I’m no longer the director of the Eargasmix-

The guys all started to talk at the same time.

-What?-Sydney said

-But, this makes no sense-Maya said

-Is it because of me?-Shane asked-I knew it!

James was sad, but Shane’s comment made him laugh

-It’s not for any of you guys, you are all awesome-James said-It is about me, I have several problems at home, and I’m not at my best right now-

-We’re sorry to hear it, Mr. Allen-Kyle said

-So, while I find a substitute, I think you all can take over well-

-But, we are just wannabes here; we know anything about directing a Glee Club-Arfa said

- You are good guys, Shane, you are an amazing dancer, same to you Sydney, you showed it in your audition!-James said-Also, all of you are great singers! You can do it! With or without me-

-We’ll miss you-Becca said

-I still can be here for one last farewell number, I guess I can be here-James said-You got something?

-Tomorrow at 3:00 pm at the auditorium, Becca will lead-Kyler said

-What? No!-Becca replayed

-You can do it!-Arfa cheered up

-Yes, hell yes!-Lily supported

Becca smiled and James said:

-Well, until tomorrow, now guys, I have to go to order some papers for my vacation, thank you-

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Kyler took Becca home, when they arrived there, Kyler said to Becca:

-Remember, Always-

-Always-Becca replayed before kissing her boyfriend.

When she entered the house she asked her mom for her father, she just replayed:

-He left this morning, he said that it wasn’t right to keep living together, he also said that he would sent the divorce papers as soon as possible, I’m sorry Becca- Becca knew that the day would come, but inside she hoped that they could make up and fix things, be like the Family Portrait hang in the hall…

_____________________________________________________________________________________

The scene then changes to the auditorium with James watching the Eargasmix perform for him the last time.

Becca (The Eargasmix): Mama please stop cryin' I can't stand the sound Your pain is painful And it's tearin' me down

I hear glasses breakin' As I sit up in my bed I told Dad you didn't mean Those nasty things you said

You fight about money 'Bout me and my brother And this I come home to This is my shelter

It ain't easy, growin' up in World War III Never knowin' what love could be You'll see, I don't want love to destroy me Like it has done my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family? I promise I'll be better Daddy, please don't leave

My mama, she loves you (I know it) No matter what she says is true I know that she hurts you But remember I love you too

I ran away today Ran from the noise, ran away (Ran away) Don't wanna go back to that place But don't have no choice, no way

It ain't easy growin' up in World War III Never knowin' what love could be That I've seen, I don't want love to destroy me (I don't want love to destroy me) Like it did my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family? I promise I'll be better (I promise, I promise) Daddy, please don't leave (Stay)

The Eargasmix (Becca): In our family portrait We look pretty happy We look pretty normal Let's go back to that

In our family portrait (Can we work it out?) We look pretty happy (Can we be a family?) Let's play pretend (I promise I'll be better) Act like it goes naturally (Daddy please don't leave) Oh let's go back oh lets go back to that

In our family portrait (Can we work it out?) We look pretty happy (Can we be a family?) We look pretty normal (I promise I'll be better) Lets go back to that (Mommy I'll do anything)

James stood up and clapped before saying:

-You got this-
