He tells her that the Charleston Chiefs basketball team has employed him as their newest point guard, overwhelming Haley. Skills sits down with Mouth and is told that Millicent left him. Skills tells him that Gigi was trouble and he told him so. Mouth admits that Millicent was right and he might have enjoyed flirting with Gigi. Skills assures him that she will come back, but Mouth doubts she can come back from a broken heart. The following day, Millicent is in Brooke’s store in tears. As Brooke arrives outside and sees the police outside, she tells the cop about Sam being missing. The cop asks if it has happened before and Brooke says she does, but this time it is different.

Peyton comforts Mia

In L.A., Lucas is packing just as Julian rings. Julian asks what has happened as the studio wants to meet with him and as he wrote the script, he has to do as the studio says. Julian tells Lucas that he has screwed up his movie and needs to fix it, and Lucas is forced to go. Back at Xavier’s house, Sam is telling Xavier that she never told Brooke who took the sketches as she never knew, she just gave them to her. As Sam tells X it was her fault, Xavier asks if she is feeling guilty and Sam confirms that Brooke was nice to her. Xavier says that she was good from putting her up in her house and saving her from being people like him and Jack. He tells her that he used to like her when Jack introduced them, but he does not like people who forget where they belong. As he says this, Jack interrupts him and tells him to lay off her, but Xavier hits him across the face. As Sam attempts to run, Xavier pushes her back down and tells her that Brooke tried to run too. He walks off telling them they need some time to think about how idiotic they are. He shuts the door and locks them inside. At TRIC, Owen is drinking as Peyton catches him and finds out he is no longer sober. She walks in to see Mia and asks why she is there and Mia apologises as she knows that Peyton is the one who guided her career. She tells Peyton that she will record the record if she wants, but Peyton tells her that she has to realize that she will always believe in Mia and she was her first artist and that is like being her first child. She tells Mia that she will always support her but needs to know what is going on. Mia admits that she cannot right when comparing to her first record. Peyton tells her she can do it but has to realize her first CD was a lifetime of work, so she will buy her some more time, if she begins to try her hardest to write. Mia promises she will and leaves as Peyton tells her belly she totally rocked the situation, just as Brooke storms in telling her that Sam is missing.

613 n finds out n15

Nathan finds out he is playing with jersey number 15

Nathan arrives at the gym he will be playing at on his new team. He picks up a basketball and shoots it straight away just as Bobby Irons walks in. Nathan asks why he is there as Bobby tells him that he is the team’s new coach as his heart was never into being a GM and needed someone to remind him to never give up on a dream, much like Q did to Nathan. Jamie is in a tree house with Andre as he tells him about his dad’s new job. Andre leans against the wall in sadness as Jamie realizes it has reminded him on Q. Andre admits he misses him and wishes he could go to his grave but his mom finds it too sad. Jamie offers to go with him next time him and Haley go. Andre wishes he could go that day as Jamie says he could find the way. Skills goes to see Millicent, but Millicent tries to look busy. Skills says to talk to Mouth as everything can be taking back as they obviously still love each other. Lucas goes to greet a man at the studio. As he tries to explain about why the director was no good, the man admits that he wants to talk about the producer, Julian. Lucas tells the man, Paul, that he has no right to judge but Paul disagrees and tells Lucas that it seems that Julian is looking unprofessional due to the director wanting to quit. Lucas apologizes about that, but Paul insists it is not his fault, it was Julian’s. He tells Lucas that Julian is like a loose cannon and as Lucas asks why he is still working with him, Paul admits it is because he is his son. Nathan is getting changed as he sticks photos up of Q and his family in his locker as well as his new jersey, number 15. A player asks if he is looking for number 23 and as Nathan looks up, he is told that the player already uses 23. He introduces himself as Devin Fox who knows a lot about Nathan. As Nathan tells Devin how he has changed to point guard, Devin says that it is a bad move as it is his team and his shot at the NBA and he is not going to throw that chance away, unlike Nathan. Back in L.A., Paul tells Lucas how Julian changed to his mother’s surname to be his own and moved to a little studio apartment in North Hollywood and fell in love. As he says this, he asks how Peyton is and Lucas replies ‘we’re good.’ As he finds this out, Paul tells Lucas about how Peyton helped Julian get his film to Sundance. Lucas says he knew the movie had a lot of buzz, but Paul tells him that buzz fades and that he is successful by being harsh and Julian still comes to him for money to make films, such as Lucas’. Lucas thanks him as Paul says that Julian is a good director, but is always unable to finish projects, so Lucas should be asking him the same question he is thinking, is Julian there for a movie or to win back Peyton.

Brooke and Peyton search for Sam

Mia is recording in the studio as Haley goes to see her. Mia tells her that she is fed up with not being influenced to record as Haley tells Mia that both her and Peyton have her back.

Brooke and Peyton are looking for Sam and Peyton as Brooke speeds down roads and Peyton rings Sam. They pull over as Peyton claims to be carsick and asks for Brooke to slow down. Brooke tells Peyton she told Sam that she could talk to her about anything, and when Sam did, she froze. Peyton asks if she knows where Sam got the sketches, but Brooke admits that she did not even ask. As she begins to cry she admits that she never said anything, never said she loved her and never said she would always be there for her. Peyton assures her they will find her so that Brooke can tell her that a thousand times. Meanwhile, Sam and Jack try to break out the window, Sam yells as she realizes Xavier has taken her cell and says they have to go to the police. Jack tells her that they are not going to the police as X is still his brother. Sam tells him that he does not have to live the way he does, or be beaten, or be scared to go home at nights. As she says this, Jack gets the window open. He gets out as Sam grabs her bag. She turns to get out, but Xavier drags her inside and throws her to the floor. As Sam screams for Jack, he runs off and Xavier shuts the window and ties her up.

Meanwhile, Andre and Jamie are walking through the woods and talking about their belief in nice ghosts. Nathan is practising ball as Devon begins to taunt him, gets past him and scores points. As Bobby encourages Nathan to carry on, Devon continues to block him and Bobby is forced to sub an annoyed Nathan.
