## North Manor - Brandon's Room

*Brandon is sleeping. Luna walks in and smiles at him. He wakes up and looks around the room. When he sees her he smiles*.

BRANDON: You okay?
*Luna looks up with a shocked look*.

LUNA: Did I wake you up?
BRANDON: No. I woke myself up.
*Luna shakes her head at her dad’s sarcastic comment. She crawls on the bed and lays beside him*.

LUNA: What’s wrong?
*Brandon takes her hand and places it on his chest. He smiles*.

BRANDON: It’s just that, if I would have lost you that day, I don’t think I could live.
*Luna scoffs*.

LUNA: You have other kids. Besides, you have Bella and...
BRANDON: That’s beside the point. You are my daughter biologically, and I love you and your siblings equally.
*Luna rolls her eyes*.

LUNA: You’re making me tear up. I don’t cry.
*Brandon shakes his head, and kisses Luna*.

BRANDON: God. You’re just like me.
LUNA: How did you and mom meet?
BRANDON: College.
LUNA: [chuckles] How romantic.
**TITLE CARD**

## Stanford University - FLASHBACK

BRANDON: Yes. Yes, I know. I dread college this year.
VINCENTÉ: [voice over] And why is that?
BRANDON: Freshman. Freshmen are so annoying.
VINCENTÉ: [voice over] Might I remind you, you were a freshman once too. And good news. If a freshman needs your help, you’ll help them.
BRANDON: [confused] I will?
*As Brandon is starstruck by his grandfather’s comment, a girl suddenly bumps into Brandon. She looks up at him with a slight smile on her face. He smiles back too*.

KATHERINE: I-I’m so sorry. I’m new and I don’t...
BRANDON: No. It’s okay. Here, let me help you.
KATHERINE: Oh, no. It’s okay. I’m so clumsy.
BRANDON: Really? Because I’m the definition of clumsy.
*Katherine and Brandon laugh at each other*.

## North Manor - Kitchen

LUNA: Ewww. More like nerds at first sight.
*Brandon laughs and continues to make breakfast*.

BRANDON: Blueberries or chocolate chips?
LUNA: Blueberries.
BRANDON: Whatever, mommy's girl.
*Luna rolls her eyes*.

LUNA: Continue the story, please. It’s interesting.
*Brandon laughs*.

BRANDON: Okay. Okay.
## Stanford University - Classroom - FLASHBACK

*Katherine and Sandy take their seats at the back of the classroom. Brandon sits in the opposite row*.

SANDY: Is that him?
*Katherine is unknowingly staring at him. When Brandon looks at her she quickly looks away*.

KATHERINE: Oh, um yeah. His name is Brandon.
SANDY: I got to say. He’s kinda cute.
KATHERINE: No, he’s not. He’s okay.
*Sandy looks at Katherine. Her look makes Katherine confess her feelings*.

KATHERINE: Okay. Fine. He’s not cute. He’s hot.
*Suddenly they both watch as a blonde girl walks into class. She sits next to Brandon, and they both watch as they kiss*.

SANDY: Shit. He’s taken. If I were you, I wouldn’t even think about him. She looks crazy.
KATHERINE: I don’t want him. Besides, I’ve got work to focus on.
## North Manor - Kitchen

LUNA: Wait, so you knew mom had a crush on you?
BRANDON: It was kind of obvious. I mean every time I looked up, she was staring at me.
*Luna laughs and almost chokes*.

BRANDON: Easy would you?
## Stanford University - Dining Hall - FLASHBACK

*The girls are sitting down eating their lunches when Brandon approaches them*.

SANDY: Oh, he’s coming. Hide.
*Katherine ducks down*.

BRANDON: Do you know where Katerina is?
SANDY: She’s not here. She has work to do.
*Brandon looks under the table. Katherine nervously smiles and waves at him*.

SANDY: Katherine? What are you doing under there?
BRANDON: [annoyed] I was wondering if you could help me with the homework?
*Katherine looks at Sandy and gulps*.

KATHERINE: [nods] Okay, fine.
## North Manor

LUNA: You guys are so disgusting. Be honest, you liked her back.
BRANDON: I did. Indeed. But then, that’s where my crazy ex comes in.
LUNA: We all love those.
BRANDON: Yes. We do.
## Stanford University - Library - FLASHBACK

*Katherine is doing homework and listening to music when a blond girl approaches her. LIBBY. Blonde hair and blue eyes. She’s extremely tall and protective of her boyfriend*.

LIBBY: Katrina right?
*Katherine shakes her head*.

KATHERINE: Um, no. It's Katherine.
LIBBY: Right. I see the way you look at him.
KATHERINE: [confused] Look at who?
LIBBY: Brandon silly. Look, I know you're a freshman and all, but listen here.
*Katherine looks at Libby with a puzzled face*.

LIBBY: Brandon and I are dating. He doesn’t like you, nor think you're cute. So do me a favor, and stay away from him.
*Katherine laughs*

KATHERINE: Are you jealous because he might actually feel something for me?
LIBBY: Me? Jealous? I’m not jealous. I’m telling you to steer clear of my mans or else.
## North Manor

*Luna is sitting on the couch next to Brandon*.

LUNA: She got a problem.
BRANDON: I wouldn’t say that. I’ve dealt with girls like that all my life. Now, that I’ve got your mother, I think I’m the same way.
## Kai's Penthouse

*Kai has a look of disgust on his face. Ryan walks down and sees that he is clearly disturbed*.

RYAN: What's that?
KAI: A gift from dear Brandon.
RYAN: And you're afraid of it?
KAI: No. I’m not.
RYAN: It’s a robot. They’re harmless.
KAI: That’s what you think. Their evil.
RYAN: Like you?
KAI: [unamused] Whatever. Start packing will you? Suitcases don’t pack themselves.
## Vincentés Mansion

*Reuben is going through the cabinets and fails at finding what he needs*.

REUBEN: Where's the Oreos?
VINCENTÉ: Oreos? What Oreos?
REUBEN: You know I like them. Did you eat them again?
VINCENTÉ: That’s for me to know, and for you to never find out about.
## Stanford University - CLASSROOM - FLASHBACK

BRANDON: Katerina? I was wondering, I’m having this party later, and maybe do you wanna come?
*Katherine looks at Sandy. She then looks back at Brandon and shakes her head no*.

KATHERINE: Sorry. I'm not much of a party girl. But hey, thanks for asking.
*Brandon walks away and Libby approaches them*.

LIBBY: Still talking to him? What will it take for you to leave him alone?
KATHERINE: Actually, if you must know, he asked me to a party, and I gladly turned him down.
LIBBY: I don’t buy it one bit.
*Suddenly, Brandon walks up to Libby with an unamused face. Libby tries to fool Brandon, but it doesn’t work with him*.

BRANDON: Cut it out will you? If you need to know, Katerina and I are friends. Nothing more.
*Katherine looks at Libby and shakes her head*

LIBBY: [hesitates] Well, okay.
*Libby walks away*.

BRANDON: [whispers] Try not to make it obvious.
KATHERINE: Make what obvious?
BRANDON: [whispers] I know you like me.
*Katherine laughs nervously*.

KATHERINE: Me? Like you? Are you kidding?
BRANDON: You can’t fool me. I know you do. Honestly, It’s kinda cute that the two of you are simping over me.
*Brandon walks away leaving Katherine in disbelief*.

## North Manor

*As Brandon is continuing telling Luna the story about how he and Katherine met, his phone buzzes*.

BRANDON: Laurent. So, you finally decide to give me a call? How convenient.
SAGE: [voice over] Yeah. Flight has been canceled.
BRANDON: You do realize that you're not scheduled for check-in until let me see...
*Brandon looks at his watch and then continues talking*.

BRANDON: Next month.
SAGE: [voice over] What? Since when does school start in October?
*Brandon ignores him until Luna hits his arm*.

BRANDON: [screams] OCTOBER????? You don't mean...
LUNA: Daddy, it's September.
BRANDON: Shit. Don't worry. I'll fly you out tomorrow.
SAGE: [voice over] Really?
BRANDON: [sighs] For what it's worth, yes.
SAGE: [voice over] Damn, Mr. M. We startin out cool this year?
BRANDON: Make me mad, and you're not getting first class.
SAGE: [voice over] Lips are sealed.
BRANDON: Now, where were we? Yes. Here’s something you might be interested in.
LUNA: What’s that?
BRANDON: When your mother and I started dating.
LUNA: Yes. Cut the unimportant things and get to the juicy part.
## Stanford University - Brandon's Dorm - FLASHBACK

*Brandon is holding Katherine in his arms. They’re both sleeping until Katherine wakes up and taps him*.

KATHERINE: Brandie? Brandon wake up!
BRANDON: What’s wrong? Are you hungry because I will...
KATHERINE: Yes and no. We’re late.
BRANDON: Late for what?
KATHERINE: Class.
BRANDON: Oh, my god. All that sex and now we’re late.
*Katherine throws his shirt and pants at him*.

KATHERINE: Shut it. We’re late.

CAYDEN: You guys are so cheesy.
BRANDON: Shut it or else.
*Katherine runs out the door, dragging Brandon with her*.

KATHERINE: Late!
## Stanford University - Classroom - FLASHBACK

*Brandon and Katherine try to walk into the class a quietly as possible. Just as they take their seats beside each other, the professor turns around*.

PROFESSOR: Mr. Marshall? I was beginning to believe that you wouldn’t show up today.
*Katherine looks at Brandon who has a worried look on his face*.

PROFESSOR: Care to explain why you’re late?
BRANDON: Sir, I-I’m.
PROFESSOR: Save it, Mr. Marshall. I expect her to be late, but you, you’re a senior. There should be no excuses.
*Brandon looks flustered*.

PROFESSOR: Don’t be late again.
*Brandon nods and takes his MacBook out*.

PROFESSOR: And you, Ms. Parker. Please don’t go hanging around the wrong folks.
*At this point, Brandon’s blood is boiling. Katherine takes his hand, and he begins to calm down*.

KATHERINE: [whispers] What’s with him today?
*Brandon ignores Katherine and fiddles with his ring*.

## North Manor

*Luna looks at Brandon with her jaws dropped. Brandon looks at her with a face that brings her back to reality*.

BRANDON: Like I was saying.
LUNA: He told mom to not be with you? Who does he think he is.
*Brandon rolls his eyes*.

## Stanford University - FLASHBACK

*Brandon is walking incredibly fast and maybe too fast for Katherine*.

BRANDON: [angrily] Keep up, will you?
*Brandon stops walking and turns around*.

BRANDON: Look, I’m sorry okay? He’s got me...
KATHERINE: It’s fine. I understand why you’re upset. But you’ll let it go eventually.
BRANDON: You don’t know me, Katerina. I don’t let things go. I hold grudges against people for life.
KATHERINE: I know you enough that you need to calm down and grow up.
BRANDON: [whispers] I’m a werewolf. I stay angry.
*Katherine laughs and pulls Brandon to the side*.

KATHERINE: That’s like saying I’m a witch.
BRANDON: [chuckles] That’s because you are.
KATHERINE: That’s preposterous.
BRANDON: [laughs] No it’s not. I’ve heard stories about mommy and daddy.
*Katherine frowns and hits his arm*.

KATHERINE: You don’t know anything about my mom and dad.
BRANDON: Oh is that so? Freya and Kaiaphas. Right?
*Katherine looks at Brandon with disbelief*.

BRANDON: Oh! I know that look all too well. Don't worry baby. Your secret is safe with me.
*Katherine looks at him and nods her head*.

KATHERINE: I know. I trust you.
## North Manor

LUNA: Dad, your creepy.
*Suddenly, Katherine walks into the room*.

KATHERINE: Isn’t he?
*Brandon looks up and gives Katherine a phony smile*.

BRANDON: B-Babe? What are you doing? Aren’t you supposed to be...
KATHERINE: Don’t act all surprised.
BRANDON: [sighs] Right. The show must go on.
*Katherine rolls her eyes a pours herself a drink*.

BRANDON: You’re a psychologist. You don’t need to be drinking.
KATHERINE: [sarcastically] Yes, well I can handle a drink unlike the rest of you.
*Brandon is silent for a moment before thinking of what he’s going to say next*.

KATHERINE: Exactly. Now the show must go on.
## San José, Costa Rica - Hotel - FLASHBACK

*Brandon throws a glass on the floor. He’s clearly furious about something, and this scares Katherine*.

BRANDON: [yells] Why? Why the hell would you do that too me?
KATHERINE: [stammers] B-Brandie I--
BRANDON: [yells] Don’t “Brandie” me. I’m gonna kill him and I’m gonna kill the child.
KATHERINE: [yells] If you didn’t realize, the child is inside of me, so you’d be killing me too.
BRANDON: [yells] Then so be it! Maybe it’ll teach you stop whoring around!
*Katherine walks up to Brandon and slaps him*.

KATHERINE: Watch what you say!
BRANDON: [sighs] It’s not you. I don’t want Grayson to have a chance of happiness and what happens?
*Katherine rolls her eyes*.

BRANDON: You go and give him everything he doesn’t deserve.
KATHERINE: Look, it was a mistake. I didn’t think...
BRANDON: Of course you didn’t think.
KATHERINE: Brandon, I’m sorry.
BRANDON: [sighs] I’m sorry too.
## North Manor

LUNA: Yeah mom! Show him who you are!
*Brandon looks up at Katherine with a grin and looks down at Luna*.

BRANDON: Bedtime.
LUNA: [yells] What? Dad, I'm not a baby anymore. I'm 17 remember?
BRANDON: [chuckles] Fine then. I don't want to hear you complaining about how you're tired tomorrow.

## San José, Costa Rica - Hospital - FLASHBACK

BRANDON: You're doing it! It's gonna be okay baby.
KATHERINE: [panting & screaming] No! I can't do it! I hate you Brandon North!
BRANDON: [confused] What did I do? Refresh my memory, please.
KATHERINE: [screams] You son of a bitch! You put this child in me!
BRANDON: [plays along] Baby, I don't think that's how it works.
NURSE: Mr. North, she needs to push. Katherine, you've got to push.
BRANDON: Push baby. Push.
KATHERINE: [yells & straining] Brandon tell me to p-push one m-more time...

BRANDON: You did it!
*The nurse walks over to Katherine and she begins crying when the nurse hands her the baby*.

NURSE: You've got a beautiful baby girl.

BRANDON: [gently] All that fuss over you?
*Katherine holds the baby out for Brandon to hold. He looks at Katherine reluctantly. She nods her head, signaling that she approves. As Brandon takes the baby into his arms, she opens her eyes. He smiles and shakes his head*.

BRANDON: My God! You look like mommy, don't you?
*Brandon caresses the baby's head before pressing a gentle kiss to the forehead*.

BRANDON: [babyishly] You're gonna be okay, kid. Because daddy isn't going to let anyone ever hurt you.
NURSE: Her name?
*Brandon looks up at Katherine. Katherine smiles and continues to speak*.

KATHERINE: Isabella.
*Brandon looks down at newborn Isabella and then at Katherine*.

BRANDON: Isabella Katerina Rose.

KATHERINE: You wish. So you thought it was July?
BRANDON: [gags] What? Why do you say that?

LUNA: Porn? You guys are watching porn?
REUBEN: I thought you liked porn, Brandon.
BRANDON: [nonchalantly] Actually, I was into sorority girls.
LUNA & REUBEN: Gross!
BRANDON: What? I was a frat boy.
KATHERINE: This is too much. Dad, out! Luna... mommy is sleeping with you tonight.
*Brandon’s mouth drops*.

BRANDON: You’re leaving me tonight?
KATHERINE: Good night, Brandon. And If I were you, I’d get some Lysol and spray those sheets.

KATHERINE: Like I said, goodnight.

*The two other girls jump up from their seats and fastly walk out of the room. Brandon closes the door and looks at Libby with an angry face*.

BRANDON: So, did you hear the news?
LIBBY: What news?
BRANDON: About a certain someone's milkshake being poisoned?
LIBBY: Who?
BRANDON: [yells] Don't play dumb with me! I know it was you. Ever since, Katherine and I started a friendship, you've been jealous. You've been even more jealous ever since we've started dating.
LIBBY: I-
BRANDON: You've asked if we could be friends. I didn't have a problem with it, but now you've crossed the line.
*Libby looks down at the floor. She's too ashamed to look at him*.

BRANDON: You know, normally I wouldn't say this but your a bitch, Olivia and I don't want you ever and I mean ever to talk to me or Katherine again.

KATHERINE: Question.
BRANDON: And what's that?
KATHERINE: Why are you so hot?
BRANDON: [smirks] I was gonna ask the same thing.
*The nurse rolls her eyes*.

*Brandon picks Katherine up bridal style. She laughs just as they're about to leave the nurse clears her throat*.

BRANDON: Where's the girl?
KATHERINE: Our daughter is still asleep.
BRANDON: No. I've gotta go pick Laurent up. She better get up.
KATHERINE: I've got to say, I would be afraid to be a student. Especially when it comes to wake up call. You and dad probably scare the poor kids to death.
BRANDON: [awkwardly] What? I have know clue what you mean.

BRANDON: I think you know what I'm about to say.
LUNA: What?
BRANDON: Go and change your shirt.
LUNA: Dad!
BRANDON: Unless you plan on walking.
LUNA: UGH! Fine.
## Highway

*Luna is sitting in the back with her arms crossed. She's mad that Brandon asked her to sit in the backseat, as Sage is currently in the front seat with him*.

LUNA: Dad? How many more hours? I think I'm gonna be sick.
*Sage's eyes widen*.

SAGE: Mr. M. This isn't gonna be like last years Disney trip. Is it?
LUNA: Dad, I think I'm gonna...
*Brandon turns around*.

BRANDON: Baby you're gonna be fine. We've literally got fifteen more minutes.
SAGE: I don't think she can handle fifteen minutes.
LUNA: You want me to puke on you? Because I'd be glad.
*Brandon sighs and hits his head against the steering wheel*.

SAGE: No. Mr. M, this is just like last years Disney trip.
BRANDON: Yes. I'm starting to get those vibes.

LUNA: So, are you gonna tell me more?
BRANDON: Why not?
## Stanford University - Brandon's Dorm - FLASHBACK

*Brandon unlocks the door with Katherine still in his arms. As he sets her down on the bed, his phone begins to buzz. He ignores it, as he lays beside her. He brings her closer, before she buries her head into his chest. His phone buzzes once again. Katherine nods her head, and he gets up to check his phone. He sees something disturbing and leaves which makes Katherine question him*.

KATHERINE: What's wrong? Where are you going?
*Brandon looks up at her while he struggles to get his pants on*.

BRANDON: It's nothing. I promise.
KATHERINE: You're struggling to get your pants on. Something is obviously wrong.
BRANDON: Do you trust me?
KATHERINE: [nods her head] Of course I do.
BRANDON: Then, I promise you. There's nothing wrong. I'll be back.
*He gives her a light peck on the lips before running out the room*.

*Cayden is sitting at a table alongside Sandy. Sandy's face looks red which scares Brandon*.

BRANDON: You okay Shelby?
SANDY: For the last time, it's Sandy. S-A-N-D-Y. Sandy.
BRANDON: Goddamn. What's wrong with her?
*Sandy pulls her phone out. She hands it to Brandon. A video of him begins playing*.

LIBBY: Brandon got his first rejection. It's kinda sad really.
BRANDON: That's what you think. I'll show you that I can make her fall for me.
LIBBY: Then what?
BRANDON: I'll dump her ass.
*The video stops playing. He hands Sandy the phone, with an awkward look on his face*.

SANDY: I can't believe you. You don't actually love her, do you?
BRANDON: Of course I love her. I love her more than any of you will ever know.
SANDY: I'm 30 seconds away from sending this to her.
BRANDON: You wouldn't dare.
SANDY: Trust me, I will.
*Sandy looks Brandon in the eyes and is about to click 'send'. Out of anger, Brandon smacks the phone out of her hand. The phone drops on the floor and it shatters*.

SANDY: You're paying for that.
BRANDON: [angrily] Like hell I am.
*As Brandon gets up, CAYDEN stands in front of him. Brandon looks at him with fury in his eyes*.

CAYDEN: Tell Katherine the truth, or I'll send the video to her myself.
BRANDON: [sarcastically] I'm so scared. Whatever shall I do?
SANDY: You said Libby was a bitch, I'm beginning to think you're the bitch.
BRANDON: [sarcastically] Then I guess we're both bitches.
*As Brandon gets up to leave, Dalton moves in front of him*.

CAYDEN: The truth, or else.
*Brandon pushes CAYDEN out of the way. He turns around and looks at Sandy*.

BRANDON: You should get that fixed.
## Stanford University - Brandon's Dorm - Flashback

*Brandon opens the door. He finds Katherine asleep. He smiles at her sleeping form, and drapes the covers over her. He sits at the end of the bed stroking her head. She wakes up and looks at Brandon with shame in her eyes*.

KATHERINE: So when were you going to dump me?
*Brandon looks up with a shock in his eyes*.

BRANDON: W-What are you talking about? You're not going anywhere. You're mine for life.
KATHERINE: The fact that when you make me "fall in love with you" and then "dump my ass"?
BRANDON: Who sent you the video?
KATHERINE: So you're admitting it?
BRANDON: Who sent you the video?
KATHERINE: No one. I found it myself. I mean it's not like it's going around campus.
BRANDON: I-
KATHERINE: I thought you loved me.
BRANDON: Of course I do.
KATHERINE: No, you think I'm stupid. You think you can get whatever you want out of me.
*Katherine stands up and gets her bag*.

KATHERINE: I'm not one of those girls that you can go around messing with.
BRANDON: Katerina, I love you.
KATHERINE: [hesitantly] Well, I don't.
*She slams the door. Brandon is standing there. He's shaking with literal tears streaming down his face*.

*The scene now cuts between **Stanford University** and **Vincenté's Mansion***.

BRANDON: I'm coming home. I need a break, and I know it's last minute. It'll probably be for a week or two.

**Vincenté's Mansion**

VINCENTÉ: You're gonna tell me everything. Because if it's an excuse to escape what's about to go down, I'll tell you this, I already know.

**Stanford University**

BRANDON: Sir it's not. I-

VINCENTÉ: I nothing. You heard what I said and that's final.
## Brandon's Office

LUNA: You cheated? On my mother? On the woman who brought me into this world?
*Brandon turns around. He has an unamused look on his face*.

BRANDON: Yes and no at the same time. I loved your mother. I truly loved her. That's what happens when you give in to peer pressure.
## Vincenté's Mansion - Brandon's Room - FLASHBACK

*Brandon throws his bag on the ground. He uses magic to lock the door. He is sprawled out on the bed and sighs. He gets up and looks at a picture of him and Katherine. He gets angry and throws the picture on the ground, shattering it. This only makes him more angry. He picks up a hard-covered book. He takes it and throws it at the shelf, making it break and items begin to shatter on the ground*.

VINCENTÉ: What are you doing??
*Vincenté watches as Brandon continues with his destructive episode. After a while, Vincenté comes over to him, and grabs him. He turns him around and witnesses him crying. He takes him into his arms*.

VINCENTÉ: It's going to be okay.
BRANDON: [crying] I messed up. She's the only one that I love. She's the only one that I want.
VINCENTÉ: You're gonna have to give her time. At this point, everyone is going to need time.
*Brandon nods his head*.

## Stanford University - Katherine's Dorm - FLASHBACK

*Brandon has explained himself to Katherine. She looks happy and Brandon looks happy as well. Katherine gets up from her bed, and kisses Brandon's cheek. A look of amazement can be seen in his eyes*.

KATHERINE: I'm always gonna love you, you idiot.
*Brandon and Katherine have forgotten that Sandy is in the room*.

SANDY: I'm guessing with all the tension right now, it's about to get hot and steamy.
KATHERINE: Girl. What is wrong with you? He's not here for that.
BRANDON: [smirks] Aren't I though?
KATHERINE: [annoyed] Whatever. Sandy just behave okay? He's staying for the weekend.
SANDY: He is??
*Brandon lets go of Katherine's hand and walks over to Sandy*.

BRANDON: Are you ever gonna shut up?
SANDY: I-
BRANDON: Kidding. But you talk a lot.
*Katherine is clearly getting annoyed at the situation*.

KATHERINE: Come on. I wanna show you something.
*Sandy smiles and walks in the middle of the two*.

SANDY: I think I'm gonna need some popcorn, cuz this is getting good.
BRANDON & KATHERINE: Do you mind?
SANDY: I'm just saying you've got a bad bitch.
BRANDON: [laughs] MMM. Don't I know it?
SANDY: As I said, I'm gonna be doing my thing and you're gonna be doing yours.
*Brandon sits Katherine down. She looks at Brandon with a confused face*.

BRANDON: Damn. I can't count how many years we've been together for. That's a whole lot of "hot and steamy".
*Katherine playfully hits Brandon's shoulder and laughs*.

BRANDON: I honestly don't know what I'd do without you. You're my everything, and I don't want to lose that.
KATHERINE: And you won't baby.
*Sandy is sitting on the couch stuffing her mouth with popcorn enjoying what's going on. Brandon reaches for his pocket and pulls a box out*.

SANDY: Oh shit. It's not going to get hot and steamy. It's about to get real.
*Brandon looks at Sandy with an annoyed expression*.

BRANDON: I've never felt like this towards anyone before.
*Katherine holds Brandon's hand*.

BRANDON: Before I met you, I was a spoiled rich kid living with his grandfather and had no respect for women.
*Katherine tilts her head*.

BRANDON: But the first time I saw you, I thought I just wanted you for one thing. Then I realized that I loved you like no other.
*Tears begin streaming down Katherine's cheek*.

BRANDON: Might I remind you, baby. I can't count, and I want to keep you forever.
*Brandon kneels and Katherine gasps. He opens the box with a gorgeous gold ring with diamonds*.

SANDY: Damn. That's expensive as hell.
*Brandon ignores her*.

BRANDON: Katerina Grayce Parker, will you marry me?
*At this point, Katherine is literally crying. Brandon brings her to his side and she buries her face into his chest. She pulls away from him and smiles*.

KATHERINE: Yes. It'll always be yes.
*Katherine pulls Brandon up, and he slips the ring onto her finger. Brandon looks up at Sandy. He pulls something out of his pocket. It's another box, but it's bigger than the previous one*.

BRANDON: I believe I owe you something?
*He hands her the Iphone box. Her eyes widen*.

SANDY: [laughs] You're kidding me right? This isn't a joke is it?
BRANDON: [sarcastically] It may be.
*She opens the box. A rose gold device sits in its place. Sandy closes the box and sits it on her desk*.

SANDY: Why are you being so nice to me?
BRANDON: Because, I realized that no matter how annoying you are, I treated you like shit, and for that I'll forever be sorry.
*Sandy begins wiping her tears. Katherine rolls her eyes. Brandon holds his arms out for her*.

KATHERINE: This is your chance.
*She smiles and rolls her eyes. She hugs Brandon, but then quickly pulls away*.

BRANDON: Friends?
SANDY: [nods head] Friends.
## The North School - Bathroom

*Luna is in the bathroom. Ryan walks in and notices that she doesn't look so well*.

RYAN: Luna, you okay?
LUNA: [nods] Yeah. I'm fine.
*Ryan uses the opposite sink. She has an unsteady feeling but ignores it*.

LUNA: I'm really mad. I forgot my humidifier. The air isn't going help this nose.
RYAN: [laughs] I hear you.
*Ryan begins brushing her teeth. She sees Luna clutching her stomach, but ignores her. She hears the sound of gaging which makes her turn around. Luna is throwing up blood*.

RYAN: Luna! My God! Are you okay?
LUNA: [shakes her head] No. Not really.
RYAN: I'm gonna go get Brandon.
LUNA: [yells] No!
RYAN: No? What do you mean no? You're throwing up blood.
LUNA: I'm gonna be fine. I promise. If Anyone finds out, they won't let me graduate.
*Ryan looks confused*.

LUNA: If they realize that I can't keep blood down, they'll keep me back a year.
*Ryan looks down*.

LUNA: And I really, really want to go to Harvard. I've got dreams too you know.
## Vincenté's Room

*Ryan knocks on the door. Vincenté tells her to come in*.

VINCENTÉ: Why do I sense unease? MMM?
RYAN: If I tell you this, promise not to tell anyone else? Not even uncle Reuben?
*Vincenté nods his head*.

## Luna's Dorm

*Luna is laying in bed. She's covered in a bunch of covers. The trash can is right next to her bed. She looks over to see that Ryan isn't in her bed. She doesn't think of anything else and let's it go. A few minutes later, Luna is clutching her stomach again*.

*Vincenté walks into the room and finds Luna throwing up more blood. He sighs, and sits next to her. He moves her hair out of her face*.

LUNA: What's wrong with me? Why is this happening?
VINCENTÉ: It's because you can't keep the blood down.
LUNA: I was fine when I fed on the Jaylen guy.
VINCENTÉ: Wait what? You fed on him? Is he dead?
LUNA: Yeah. He's been dead. Why?
VINCENTÉ: That doesn't matter right now. All that matters is you.
*Luna lays down. Vince pulls the covers over her. He kisses her forehead*.

LUNA: Please don't tell anyone else. Especially not dad or Elizabeth.
VINCENTÉ: I'm not going to tell anyone. It's not your fault or anyone else's.
LUNA: Do you know why I can't keep it down?
*Vincenté nods*.

VINCENTÉ: It's because of the blood that flows through you.
LUNA: [confused] What do you mean?
VINCENTÉ: [hesitates] It's because...
LUNA: Because what? Come on gramps. You can tell me.
VINCENTÉ [sighs] It's because... It's because you're...
LUNA: I'm what?
VINCENTÉ: You can't be a vampire.
LUNA: What? Why?
VINCENTÉ: You're... You're...
LUNA: [yells] Just spit it out!
VINCENTÉ: [yells] It's because you're my daughter!
*Luna looks up with disbelief*.

LUNA: What. Do. You. Mean?
VINCENTÉ: What does it sound like?
*Luna gets up out of her bed*.

## Brandon's Office

*Luna barges into Brandon's office. Brandon looks up at her*.

BRANDON: Are you okay?
LUNA: I'll be okay once you explain why my grandfather says I'm his daughter.
*Brandon drops his glass on the floor*.

BRANDON: Excuse me? What did you say?
LUNA: Vince says I'm his daughter.
BRANDON: No. That's n-not true. I-I made you, Luna.
*Luna turns around*.

BRANDON: Do you hear me? I made you. I know that for a fact. Unless...
LUNA: Unless what?
BRANDON: That night.
LUNA: What about it?
BRANDON: Reuben didn't deliver you.
LUNA: Then who did?
BRANDON: Kai.
LUNA: Are you saying?...
*Kai walks in the room*.

KAI: Your whole life is a lie. Surprise!
