Andi: Previously, on Andi Mack...
-(screams) -Whoa!
Sorry, I haven't figured out the brakes yet.
Both: Andi?
(laughs)
Whoa!
Bex?
Hey, Andi Mack!
You guys! It's my sister!
What are you doing here?
I couldn't miss your birthday.
How long will you be staying?
A while?
I'm... moving back home.
Andi never sees what's inside this box.
-It's just pictures. -It's secrets.
Bex: He's gonna teach you how to play Frisbee.
-Yep. -It's Jonah Beck.
I got you a lesson, that's your present.
-No... -Yeah!
I love that you have groupies.
-This is Amber. -His girlfriend.
I have to go.
I've been there, and I know how you feel.
No, you don't!
I'm not one of those people in your memory box!
Those are the people you know!
Do you think that you're not in here?
Andi... I'm not your sister.
I'm your mother.
-What? -What?
-Oh my gosh! -No way!
Both: You joined the Frisbee team?
Uh... yeah.
Do you even know how to play Frisbee?
I'm learning.
From who?
-Jonah Beck. -Jonah Beck?
-(makes exploding sounds) -Get out!
Are you literally saying
that Jonah Beck is literally teaching you how to play Frisbee?
But, it's not that big a deal.
Uh, it's the biggest thing that's ever happened to me,
and it didn't even happen to me!
I know you, Andi Mack. You're dying inside,
but you don't want us to see it.
Well, too bad! Because guess what?
We can!
You have no secrets from us.
Okay... guys?
You know me too well. (laughs)

So what happened?
Did you tell Buffy and Cyrus?
No.
Andi.
I tried! But I only got to the part about you know who.
Who?
(whispering) Jonah?
Why is there a part about Jo--
--know-who?
Because! I had to tell them the whole story.
It's not like you can start a conversation
with, "Oh, hey, guys, guess what?
My sister's my mother, and my mother's my grandmother."
Celia: I'm not your grandmother!
She doesn't wanna use that word.
What word should I use, then?
Nana?
Celia: No!
Okay, well, what do you want me to call you?
Uh... how about Pops?
Pops... I like it.
Me, too.
See? Change doesn't have to be hard.
But I get it, it's complicated.
Complicated? Buffy and Cyrus
can barely comprehend that I'm playing an after-school sport.
You're playing an after-school sport?
Why do people find this so shocking?
Who's hungry?
Me.
It is so great to have you home.
The-- The whole family under one roof.
It's been too long.
And it feels really great to have everything out in the open.
Finally.
Wonderful.
Well, it feels great for me.
This is my first family dinner as your mom.
Albany.
Albany. I don't know what that means.
-Annapolis. -Atlanta.
-Okay, that's not helping. -We play memory games at dinner.
-Augusta. Pass the meat, please.
-Austin. -Dibs on the drumstick. Baton Rouge.
Memory games at dinner, Mom? Are you serious?
The games were my idea.
And I hope you are serious, 'cause they're so fun.
-Can I play? -Sure. We're listing state capitals.
Phoenix!
In alphabetical order.
-Where were we? -Baton Rouge.
Baton Rouge, okay.
Um... can I have a minute?
No. You missed, you're out.
Oh, come on. Give me a second chance.
I already did.
You guys are taking all the fun out of learning at dinner.
Yeah. Whoo!
Come on, Michael.
Yes.
Your backhand's lookin' tight, Andiman.
-It is? -Just needs some distance.
Let me see your grip.
(giggles)
Allergies.
Try this.
Nice. I want one of these...
whadaya-call-them? Wraps?
But, they're spendy.
I know, which is crazy, because they're super easy to make.
Wait-- Seriously? You made this?
Yeah. I could make you one. Oh... if you want.
Dude, and it'll go around a bunch of times?
Yeah, as many as you want.
Oh, no. Oh, no. Excuse me.
What are you guys doing here?
We are supporting you in your thrilling new endeavor.
Talking to Jonah Beck.
And Frisbee.
But more, talking to Jonah Beck.
It looks like you've gotten really good at it.
He's coming over.
What?
Oh, I'm so nervous.
Hey, friends of Andi.
Hey, Jonah Beck.
You can just call me Jonah.
Did you hear that?
Jonah Beck just said we could call him Jonah.
Don't listen to Cyrus Goodman. And this is Buffy Driscoll.
You guys look like disc heads.
What did you just call us?
Disc... heads.
People who play Ultimate?
Which they don't. Ever. Want to.
Right?
Not if that's the team shirt.
I-- I'm more of a wheezer than a runner.
-But I'm happy to be a fan. -Excellent.
You're our first one.
Wanna stick around for practice?
Sure, Jonah.
(mouthing) Jonah... Beck!
The biggest surprise for me... he's just so down to earth.
He's got that Bill Clinton charm.
What does that mean?
I don't know. But it's something our new rabbi
has in spaces, according to my mother.
Honestly, I say you have a shot. Go for it. He clearly likes you,
and doesn't seem to have a girlfriend.
Oh no, he does.
You've never seen her, 'cause she's in ninth grade.
He has a girlfriend in high school?
Sometimes she shows up at the end of practice.
An older woman. I can't believe he walks among us.
And, here she comes now.
♪ Be all about it That's right 'cause it feels good ♪
She's... pretty.
Her name's Amber.
She looks like an Amber.
She actually looks... Amber.
♪ Be all about it That's right 'Cause it feels good ♪
-Hi! -Hi, Amber.
Now I know what it feels like to be a window.
Not good.
Look away. Like, over here. Where that's not happening.
Do you think she's always looked like that?
Or, is that what happens when you go to high school?
I don't know, but lately I've wondered,
what if awkward isn't just a phase?
Question: Is this a snack or an art supply?
Does it still bend?
No.
What are you doing?
And it better not be making that bracelet for Jonah.
-Why not? -Because! If anyone's making anything for Jonah Beck,
it's going to be Tiffany.
-Amber. -That's what I said.
Look, I just enjoy making bracelets, and he asked me for one.
That's all this is.
Lie to yourself all you want, but you can't lie to me.
And you know what? I'm not gonna let you lie to yourself, either.
Buffy, I swear, this means nothing!
You are in such denial.
Cyrus.
Cyrus!
Wha?
Back me up here?
I... found something.
I'm sorry. I was just looking for some candy
that wasn't shellacked, and--
Cyrus! Put that down, that's private!
Okay...
But... I already know.
Know what?
When... did you find out?
Couple days ago.
It must be so strange for you.
It is.
Your sister... has a secret baby?
Yes.
Yes, she-- she-- she does.
But you can't say anything.
This is private. That box is like her diary.
Nobody's allowed to look inside.
Except... you.
Including me.
Wait... then why do you have it?
Obviously, she's hiding it from their mom.
Obviously.
This explains so much.
Like, why she hardly ever visits,
and why she only stays for a few days.
Because she lives...
Both: with her secret baby!
Sure.
Why not?
(machine whirring)
Mom!
Momma!
You're in my bedroom.
You're in my gym.
It's six a.m.
Gym opens early.
I'm not even awake yet, and we're already fighting.
How is that possible?
If it bothers you, we don't have to talk.
Oh, ever?
I'm not the one that's complaining.
Can we try something?
What?
Can we try something?
Let's try to say... one nice thing to each other.
You just gotta come up with one.
I'll go first.
You did... a fantastic job raising my daughter.
And it's hard to admit, but, probably a better job than I would've done.
And I'm grateful.
Very, very grateful.
I was gonna say... I like how you do your makeup.
That's a compliment. And I'll take it.
See? We can get along if we want to.
Yep, so it seems.
What do you say? You wanna try for a second sentence?
Let's not push our luck.
Hey... can I talk to you for a second?
Is everything okay?
I... did something bad.
I took it.
But I didn't look inside.
I wanted to, but that would be an invasion of your privacy.
So that makes stealing it okay?
No... I'm sorry.
Andi... if you wanna look through it...
go ahead.
Really?
Wait, are you sure?
Yes!
He's not in here, is he?
Your dad? No.
I took him out.
What?
Because, I expected you would invade my privacy.
It's an honored tradition in this house.
I've had this box since I was your age.
Mom opened it once, a little over 13 years ago.
She saw something she didn't wanna see.
So she learned her lesson. And... I learned mine.
So... there is a picture.
There is a picture.
And you're not gonna show it to me.
How do you think that makes me feel?
Oh, I'm guessing as bad as it feels that you haven't told Buffy and Cyrus yet
that I'm your mother.
I'm getting there.
In my experience, this is a one-step process.
Okay, I didn't snoop inside your box, but they did,
and they found the picture of us, so they know you had a baby...
they just don't know that it's me.
Who do they think it is?
Your secret baby?
They think I have a secret baby?
Well, you do! Me!
-Then tell them! -It's not that easy!
It took you 13 years, and you still have secrets you won't tell me.
How long am I gonna have to wait to hear those?
Easy with the-- All right.
Gus... that diving catch you made today... phenomenal!
I-- I did it for you, Jonah.
And you made me proud.
Ughh...
Maybe stop by the emergency room for a quick x-ray.
What's up, Andiman?
Um...
Is-- Is-- Is that for me?
You wanted one, right?
Aw man... this is docious ma-gocious, you made this?
Uh, it was not that hard.
Stop. You have a skill.
Own it the way I own Ultimate.
How's it look?
I think it looks good.
Good? It's everything! It slays.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
(dramatic music playing)
See you tomorrow.
You rock, Andiman.
I try.
Amber?
Oh, no, no... don't look at me.
Keep walking, you can't see me like this.
What's wrong? Did something happen, what was it?
You.
With your groupie pixie dream girl.
What?
Don't lie. I saw you, just now...
holding her in your arms.
Do you mean Andi?
Please... I don't wanna hear you say her name.
It's like a knife in my heart.
Am I losing you, Jonah?
Of course not.
Is this still my special spot?
You know it is.
Is it still okay for me to do this?
Yeah.
J plus A.
This is nice. Where'd you get it?
Uh-- Uh-- Uh...
Dinner! Andi!
I'm here.
Memory game. Are we playing?
Why wouldn't we be?
Andi, it's your turn to start.
Oh. Hydrogen.
Hydrogen? What is that the capital of?
-Are you okay? -Very much so, thank you for asking.
Helium.
Uh, lithium.
(laughing)
What is going on?
I just spent four hours memorizing state capitals.
Oh, tonight's the periodic table.
Andi? It's your turn.
No, no... it's not. It's... my turn.
I'm here, I'm part of this family,
and I'm playing the dinnertime memory game.
Which is what again?
Periodic elements in order of their atomic number.
And you said?
Lithium.
Oh, come on, periodic table, I know you're up in here somewhere.
Beryllium?
-Yes! -Yes?
-Uh-huh! -I got it right?
-Uh-huh! -(laughing)
You are still in the game.
That's all I want... is to still be in the game.

Cyrus: What do we know about this secret baby?
Is it a boy or a girl?
How old is the secret baby now?
Have you ever met the secret baby?
Cyrus: Your mother must not be too happy
about the secret baby.
Are you going to tell us anything about the secret baby?
Stop talking about the secret baby!
Why can't we talk about the secret baby?
Is there something wrong with the secret baby?
Please tell me everything gonna be okay with the secret baby.
I'm the secret baby.
Bex is my mother, and my mother is my grandmother,
and Amber is wearing my bracelet!
Buffy/Cyrus: Amber is wearing your bracelet?
I told you not to make it.
(dramatic music playing)
Why is she staring at you?
I don't know. It's like we're in some kind of contest.
One that I do not wanna be in.
So, I'm just gonna stop.
(dramatic music playing)
She's really committed to this.
I didn't like it when she looked straight through me
like I wasn't there.
This... is much, much worse.
She blinked!
I didn't know blinking was allowed, I could've been blinking
this whole time.
What did I ever do to her?
Besides apparently make her a bracelet?
That's it, that's what you did!
You went after her man.
No, I didn't!
Th-- That bracelet didn't mean anything!
It was a craft project!
Don't tell us. Tell her.
She's still looking at me?
(dramatic music playing)
If looks could kill...
and, I mean, I know it's a cliche, but, seriously...
be grateful looks can't kill.
Then let's just get out of here.
No! If you leave, she wins.
We don't know that, we don't know the rules.
Blinking is allowed.
Don't you get it? She wants you gone.
She thinks you're a threat.
"Andi with the good hair."
So, should I get these baby taters to go or not?
Well, is she still staring at me?
Yep. Only now she's smiling and waving buh-bye.
Ooh, hey, could I get some tartar sauce, please?
Thanks.
You're doing great. I'm proud of you.
Thanks.
You said something right before "Amber's wearing my bracelet."
What was it?
I'm the secret baby.
Right. Right. I have some questions.
Do you?
One or two.
(dramatic music playing)
Andi: Next on Andi Mack...
Did Mom-- I mean, did Celia say it was okay?
It's okay to have a little fun.
Plus we don't have to tell her.
Things still weird at home?
Two moms, one house,
and they agree zero percent of the time.
I'm her mother!
I was her mother... and she was happy!
No, she wasn't.
If you get really scared,
I'm gonna be right here with you the whole time.
I'm not sure she's safe with you.
(screaming)
