Rhythm is my Heartbeat Lost & Found Music Studios

Previously, on Lost And Found...

Things with Michelle are complicated.

I just can't get John's song out of my head.

And the one thing I know for sure is that I like him and he likes me.

I thought it was bad that the van was totalled, but now it's gone!

Once Luke finds out what I've done with the van,

he's going to love me forever!

I come to the recording studio,

and then I see my red guitar sitting there, and I start playing...

I finally feel free. I can't hide what's going on inside me any more.

OK, Uncle Gerry parked the van outside...

'I have the best surprise for Luke.'

My Uncle Gerry's a mechanic, so I got him to fix Luke's van.

The... The van...

is pink!

'How am I going to tell Luke I ruined his van?'

I don't know what I'm going to do.

-# We are the lost

-The lost

-# And the found

-The found

# Don't know where we stand But it's solid ground

-# It's your shot

-Take it

-# See what you've got

-Don't fake it

# Only your true light shines As bright as you

# Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh

# Whoa oh oh-oh. #

Uncle Gerry!

The van is pink!

I mean REALLY pink!

-WHISPERS:

-Why is it pink?

Cos I told him it was my van,

so I guess he thought it was my favourite colour.

Pink was maybe my favourite colour...

when I was five!

-Ask him to repaint it.

-Can you repaint it? Like, today?

-Can he fix it, yes or no?

-Can you fix it , yes or no?!

"Can you paint it?" Can I paint it?!

What... What happened, what did he say?

He laughed at me, then told me to say hi to my mom, and then hung up.

-Hi...?

-We need to talk.

-OK.

What's going on with you and John?

You guys are avoiding each other now? Like, what is up?

-Riley definitely told you everything I said.

-Well, yeah.

What do you expect? I hit her with these eyes...

..she folded like a tent.

'Michelle and John both like each other,'

and they're both being ridiculous about it. Something has to change.

Let me break this down for you, OK? John is stupid.

You want to get something across to him,

you kind of have to hit him right over the head with it.

I've tried to tell him that I like him, but nothing seems to work.

I don't know what to do any more.

I know you've never had to do this before,

but you're going to have to express your feeling to him straight up...

-in some way.

-You're right.

-Thanks.

-That was a good talk we just had.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-All right.

-Cool. Right.

-See you.

Hey, let me know if you need any more help with your boy

-troubles, OK?

-OK, thanks.

-I know it can be overwhelming.

All right, that's enough. Thank you.

'James is right...'

If I want things to change with John,

I'm going to have to do something big to let him know

exactly how I feel.

-This is the bullpen.

-The bullpen. Has it always looked like this?

Yeah.

'My mom is concerned that I'm spending too much time here

'and not enough time at home,'

so she came to drop me off here as a way of checking up on me.

So, make sure you're not late for curfew.

You've been kind of sliding towards late, lately.

Right, cos heaven forbid I come home ten minutes later

than I'm supposed to(!)

-Was that sarcasm?

-No. No, it's not.

-I'll be home on time. Sorry.

-OK.

-OK, goodbye.

-Bye, have a good day.

-Yep.

-Yep.

-Bye.

-OK.

My mom doesn't understand my life.

If she did, she would know that there's nothing to worry about.

Oh, he's right there.

Aww. Look at him. He looks devastated.

He's not even eating his soup!

I can't let him see the van like this.

-Hey, Luke.

-Hey, what's up?

-What's wrong?

-Well, I think my van was stolen.

The guys think it was towed, but I called the police

and there's no report.

Didn't you know that the van was fixed? Like, Leia...

-THEY LAUGH

-Maggie!

I told Maggie about what Leia did to Luke's van in confidence.

-Have you seen the van?

-Uh, no. What's wrong with it?

Nothing. Why would you ask that?

-SHE LAUGHS

-Girl things!

Wait, what?

-Hey, Luke!

-Hey, Leia. Um...

You wouldn't happen to know anything about my van that I don't, do you?

Uh... Actually...

Cos if you found a way to get it fixed,

-you'd probably be my favourite person in the world.

-Then...

-I am your favourite! I got it fixed!

-Are you kidding?

-Nope.

You got it fixed?! Aww, you're so amazing! Oh!

-You're not lying to me, are you?

-No, of course not.

-Ahh, thank God.

-Ah, can we hug again?

Yeah, of course. Um, can we go see the van?

Um... Actually...

-Why don't we eat lunch first? Celebratory lunch!

-Yeah. On me.

OK, cool. Hello!

TEXT ALERT

Whoa, guys, Luke said Leia fixed the van and it's going to be

-ready this afternoon.

-What?

-What?!

-Yeah.

-It's fixed?

-It's fixed.

-It's back.

-Yeah!

-Amazing.

-You know what?

We should totally write a song about the van.

-# The van is where I want... #

-Not that song!

-No! No.

-Just...

-Stop. No.

Not that song, a new song for the new van.

I like your idea. But let's take it a step further.

Let's throw a party for the van.

-Throw a party?

-Yeah.

-I'm so down. Like, a tailgate party.

We could have the doors open in the back, snacks for everybody.

-It'd be crazy. Like the band is back.

-The band is back.

-AS ARNIE:

-The band is back!

Can't wait for the tailgate party!

Time and place - TBD.

That means "To be determined."

-Wow, you were really hungry.

-Mmm.

MOUTH FULL: Growing girl.

How many sandwiches is that? Three?

-Mmm...

-Four?

-Mh-hm.

Luke can not know the van is pink,

or this will be my last date with him forever.

-All right, let's go see the van.

-Um...

We can't have lunch without dessert.

All right. That's fine. We should...

-We should take it to go, right? Let's go.

-Er, OK!

I don't see why not! All right.

Ah... Oh!

-Pins and needles! Pins and needles!

-OK. Sit, sit, sit.

Foot! Foot!

-Luke.

-Hey.

-We got your text where's the van?

-Um...

Where's the van?

Um... It's where it usually is...

in the parking spot.

But I can't show you because...my foot. So...

-Ah, we'll meet you out there.

-All right. Yeah.

-Um...

-Thank you, favourite person in the world.

-Let's go.

-Hold up, hold up.

-All right.

-Let's go.

'Luke is going outside right now.'

I think I need a miracle. Fast!

Wha..? Wha...? It's pink.

My van's pink!

Leia painted my van pink.

P-I-N-K!

Pink!

MAGGIE GIGGLES

Who did this to you?

-Say something.

-Don't have anything positive to say.

Ah!

Leia!

Why?!

How could you do this to me?

I'm... Ah...

Rachel did it!

Why?! Why?

I don't...know. I don't know!

-Rachel! Why...is the van pink?!

-Aarrgh!

-You know his favourite colour's olive green!

-Olive green!

'I can't believe Leia is blaming me.'

I'm happy to help her, but now she expects me to take the fall?

Hey. Have you seen Rachel?

No. No, I haven't. Sorry.

It's OK.

-Are you going to the tailgate party?

-No, I can't, I've got to head home.

Mmm. I never see you at parties. How come?

Uh, I'm just really busy.

You know, extracurriculars and all that.

'My mom would never let me go.'

She likes to know who I'm talking to, where I am at all times.

-Wait, are you going to the tailgate party?

-Yeah. Why not?

You should go to the party. It'll be fun. You know?

So... Would you like some make-up...to the party...

that you're totally going to?

Actually, I have my own.

Oh! Cheers!

'I'm finally starting to fit in here,

'and what my mom doesn't know won't hurt her.'

'Once again, Leia plays with fire, and I get burned.'

I'm really getting sick of her drama.

Oh - there you are. Can you believe Luke bought that?

Now, how do we get me back on track with Luke?

Leia, do you hear yourself?

'Leia's bad, but maybe I'm worse for not standing up for myself.'

I can't keep letting her do this to me and think it's OK.

So, you hung me out to dry for a boy.

You say you're my best friend, but you don't act like one. Ever.

So, you know what? I'm done here.

I... Rachel? I...

Oh, no.

James said I have to do something big to let John know

exactly how I feel.

Music is the most important thing in John's life,

so I've decided to write him a song.

SHE PLAYS TENTATIVELY

'I'm really nervous about doing the song for John.

'I don't really know what I'm doing,'

but I know if I follow my heart, everything will be OK.

'Luke is still really upset.

'The guys and I are trying to talk him down.'

Do you realise what you did out there?

You basically made Rachel cry. She probably feels terrible.

You know what I was thinking about? You know the bassist from The Clash?

He said pink is the only true rock and roll colour.

-He said that?

-Straight up, he said that.

And it's not like it was Rachel's intention to ruin the van.

It's not her fault. We can roll with this.

Yeah, Luke, you're always talking about how "The van is a sign."

And I think this new colour's a sign.

It's a chance for a new life. No more Muttcracker, no more baggage.

We can start new.

I'm going to hop on your positive train

for a few seconds and agree with you.

Um... Maybe it's a good thing.

Maybe we should name it, or something.

-She'd like that.

-Here's an idea.

-Theo, say the first word that comes to your...

-Pink!

OK. Luke, say the first word that comes to your head.

-Midnight.

-Done. That's her name, Pink Midnight.

ALL: Pink Midnight.

-LUKE LAUGHS

-I kind of like it, actually.

If only naming the band was that easy.

John, say the first word that comes to your head.

Shut up.

"Shut up."

-That's two words, John.

-We're not being called Shut Up.

The guys are right. Pink is cool, and I'm being an idiot.

So, I should probably talk to Rachel.

SHE SOBS

'I'm sitting here crying because

'I'm pretty sure my friendship with Leia is over.'

-Rachel?

-Hey, Luke.

'She looks really hurt by everything that happened before,'

and I feel terrible.

It's OK.

Hey, hey. Don't beat yourself up, OK?

It's just a stupid van.

'Luke doesn't even understand what's going on.'

I'm not upset about the van.

It's all good. I mean, because it's so cool,

we're throwing a tailgate party.

And I really want you to be there.

Yeah. Luke, we're cool, it's fine.

I just... I just need to be alone.

Yeah. Um, OK. I'll see you later.

'If I really didn't want to be friends with Leia any more,

'I could have told Luke everything.'

But I didn't.

Maybe that means I still want to be friends with Leia after all.

Mr T. Do you see my face?

-Yes.

-These are my puppy-dog eyes.

-Uh-huh.

I'm about to ask you a huge favour.

The boys and I NEED to throw a tailgate party here.

Don't those things usually happen outside?

Yeah, but The Junction patio is the only place we could do it,

and they said no, we can't do it there, so we have to do it here.

-Please?

-No.

-Pretty please?

-No!

T, I think this is a great idea.

It would be good to bring the studio together.

Fine.

-Now get out, I want to eat my sandwich.

-(Yes!)

(Thank you! Boom!)

Thank you, Mr T!

Tailgate party's on! Time and place, BD.

Been determined.

'I really messed up this time. I'm going to tell Luke everything.'

Hi. Um...

-I need to tell you something.

-Yeah?

OK...

Um...

I...

got the van painted pink.

Rachel didn't do it.

I lied.

So, Rachel didn't have anything to do with the paint job.

No.

Why would you do that, Leah?

I... I'm sorry.

Rachel is bawling her eyes out right now and she didn't rat you out,

which she should have.

I just don't know why you couldn't tell me the truth in the beginning.

Well... I mean...

I like you.

'Leah just told me that she likes me'

and she looks so sad and beautiful, but I'm mad at her.

I'm just... I'm too confused and I can't deal with this.

Leah, I...

I really... I really think you should go help Rachel.

I think she...

She really needs you right now, OK?

Um...

I'll see you at the party.

(OK.)

'He could have said anything, and it would be OK.'

But he said nothing.

CHATTERING

Good luck.

Excuse me, hey!

Coming to this party means I'm going to be late for my curfew

but I'm tired of missing out on everything.

Thanks, bro.

'So many people showed up to our Tailgate party'

and I can't wait to celebrate Pink Midnight in style with a new song.

Hey, where you been, man?

I'll tell you later. You won't believe me.

-All right, later. Cheers.

-Cheers.

-To the van.

-To the van.

Welcome to the Tailgate party!

-To inaugurate our new van, Pink Midnight...

-Yeah!

-Pink Midnight!

She's beautiful! Pink Midnight!

CHEERING

# Tinted glass and steel, all our dreams behind the steering wheel

# Don't mind the distance, time flies in an instant

# Hot flamingo pink, you can see us from a mile away... #

-Hey!

-Hey.

-Can we talk? Alone?

Let me know if you need me, OK?

So... I told Luke the truth about the van.

He told me that you covered for me.

So?

'I know she's not perfect but'

she is my best friend and I know she really cares about me.

You're not the worst...

Really?

So... Friends?

Deal.

OK! Let's go dance!

THEY LAUGH

# We always go together

# We are

# We are born to be the midnight riders

# Every day, we play rock and roll forever.. #

'My mom is here. She thinks this place is a bad influence on me.

'She might not let me come back.

'This party might have cost me everything.'

CHEERING

'I just got a text from Michelle

'asking me to meet her in the recording studio.'

Hey, guys...

-Do the next one without me.

-What?

-Where are you going?

Doesn't matter, I'll be back.

'I'm super-nervous right now. I'm just waiting for John to come'

so I can sing him my song. I can finally tell him how I feel.

-Hi.

-Hey.

I can't believe it.
