American Pie (episode)

American Pie is the twenty-third episode of the fourth season of Moriah Blake, as well as the ninety-eighth episode overall. It is the first episode to feature Patrick Donovan as a cameraman.

Plot
When school begins again after Christmas break, rehearsal for Les Misérables begins again. Scott, Ashley, Patrick Zack Smith, and Julia hang out around town. Patrick films the others with his iPod Touch, since apparently the normal camera crew cannot make it.

The five of them (with Patrick offscreen) go to the Donovans' house. They joke around in the garage, then head off to Zack's house, where they meet Dave and Karli. They then go to the theater, where Zack plays Don McLean's "American Pie" for them. Austin shows up. Finally, the thespians go into the theater proper for rehearsal.

The next day, Dave comes to the Donovans' house. He and Patrick are leaving, when Austin breaks in and begins to sexually assault Ashley. The camera crew warns Dave, who enters the house and punches Austin.

A few days later, Scott comes to Austin's house. He also punches Austin, and uncharacteristically begins cussing at him. He admits his undying love for Ashley, before recalling the events of Dave's Birthday Party, in which Austin said that fairy tale endings never happened in real life. Scott wonders that, if fairy tales don't come true, then how has he managed to subdue Austin just before the police show up.
