Season 1: Episode 12: Crash Course in Polite Conversations

Dan gets a surprise visit from his mother and father for his birthday.  Royal and May want to have a family dinner to celebrate.  Keith, Coach Whitey, and Haley were also invited. 

Haley was working at Karen's Cafe when a man came in asking if Karen was around.  She told him that she was in Italy for culinary school.  She asked him who he was so she could let Karen know that he stopped by and he responded saying he was just an old friend.

When Haley walked in to the Scott home she recognized the man from Karen's Cafe earlier that day.  It was Dan's dad!  She took Nathan aside and in confidence told him that his Grandfather had gone to the Cafe looking for Karen. 

During the dinner, we learn where Dan gets his competitiveness from; his father Royal.  Eventually May had enough and mentioned that Dan faked his knee injury so he didn't have to play basketball anymore when he went to college.  Then, Nathan stood up for his Dad by announcing that Royal had kept a secret and revealed that he stopped by at the Cafe that day.  Nathan also announced that he was quitting the basketball team.  Talk about HAVOC!!!  I couldn't imagine being in that room with all of that tension!

Meanwhile, Peyton's dad had left again for his 3 week job.  Peyton wants to fix up her dad's car to surprise him when he gets home.  While Brooke and Lucas are helping her with the car she gets a phone call.  There was a hurricane where he was located and they can not locate his transport boat.  Peyton freaks out and immediately thinks the worst!

A little later on she gets another phone call stating that they had located a body and they need her to drive down to see if it is her father.  Brooke decides to stay at Peyton's house just in case someone calls and tells Luke to go with Peyton.

After a while of driving they came to a bridge that was actually closed due to the hurricane.  They had no choice but to get a hotel right by there and wait the storm out.  They slept for a few hours and left early the next morning.

Peyton was freaking out when they pulled into the parking lot.  Could you imagine having to identify ANY body let alone one that could possibly be your parents?  I couldn't!  How horrible!  Luckily, the man was not her Dad.

Peyton realized that she had lost her bracelet and that it must have been in their hotel room.  They got back there and she tore the place apart trying to find it.  She found it and put it back on.  She was so overwhelmed.  So vulnerable.  Her emotions were running rampant.  Lucas and her ended up almost having sex.  While they were almost to that point Peyton's hair got caught in Luke's necklace.  He stopped because he realized that Brooke had got him that necklace.  They both agreed to keep what happened between them.
