Bad Ideas
Where in the hell is your father? In and out.
Come on, Tami.
Take a deep breath.
Hey.
Hey.
You look good.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
It's probably because yesterday I was baptized and accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
Enjoy Jesus.
Yeah, enjoy your depraved hedonism.
Say hi to the Swede.
Who's "the Swede"? Some boy she's flirting with at the pool.
If you leave Matt, no one is going to love you any less.
You realize that? I really miss having you around.
No.
Maybe it's colic.
Oh, honey.
It's not colic.
Well, Julie, she was colic.
I love you so much, sweetheart, but you don't know what you're talking about.
Julie was not colicky.
The only time Julie ever cried was the time you slammed her hand in the car door going to the store.
First of all, that was 15 years ago, and you're the one that let her get her hand stuck.
All right, I'm sorry.
You know what? Were you asleep when I called? No.
Yes, you were.
Go back to sleep.
Well, no.
There's no sense in me going back to sleep now that I'm awake.
Go ahead and talk to me.
All right, darling.
How's work going? It's good.
Well, that doesn't sound very convincing.
It is good.
It's good.
It's like being, you know, it's like It's, like, this bed's uncomfortable, for one thing.
And the other thing is that, you know, it's like being the new kid in school.
There's this inner circle that, you know, you're never part of the inner circle.
All you have to do is be indispensable.
And you and I both know that's just what you do so perfectly.
Well, that's a very wifely thing for you to say.
Hmm.
Oh, now you got her crying.
I miss you and I love you.
I love you, baby.
I love you.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Landry, what time is it? Why are you calling me? Look, I can't find my watch.
What? I can't I can't find my watch.
The last time I had it was You know what? Even if somebody found that watch, they're not gonna know it's yours.
Okay? Yeah.
Well, that's fine, Tyra.
Except for the fact that it's engraved, "To Landry.
From Grandpa.
" Okay, you need to take a deep breath here and calm down.
It's probably with the body.
That's all I'm saying.
"Take a deep " I can take all the breaths that I want, but that's not gonna matter whenever I'm in the electric chair.
Okay.
Landry.
This is not normal, what we're doing right here.
Walking around at Well, I'm sorry if I'm embarrassing you right now.
Is that all No, you're not embarrassing me but we're not supposed to return to the scene of the crime.
Oh, really? I didn't realize you were so knowledgeable about this.
Maybe you should just write a "How To" book on how to Oh, that's helping right now.
Those nasty comments.
That's great.
I'm trying to hold it together.
Think anyone's looking for him? You know, friends or family or someone? This Let's go home.
Okay? Come on.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Watch your footwork.
Eyes up.
Hut! Hey, Eric.
Yeah? Coach wants to see you.
All right.
Keep it up.
Hut! Coach, I know it's I do wind sprints, balance.
Antwone.
Coaches.
Hey, Eric.
Antwone.
Antwone here is in a little trouble with the infractions committee for accepting gifts from a booster.
Isn't that right, Antwone? Taylor, I need for you to escort this knuckle-head to his hearing tomorrow because I don't trust that he can make it there on his own.
We fully expect him to be suspended for the season because he was stupid enough to get caught at the Justin Timberlake show with an agent.
Justin Timberlake.
Hope he was worth it, Antwone.
Hey, hey, hey.
Step off.
That little white boy's got soul.
I don't want to hear another word out of you.
What about How about practice? Don't worry about it.
We'll cover it.
All right.
Since we got that covered, we taking my car.
Hello.
Hey, Glenn.
Come on in.
Hi.
Gosh.
Thank you so much You're welcome.
for seeing me at home like this.
Let's Why don't we Let's just go on in the kitchen there.
Okay? Okay.
You can probably find a spot on the table.
Really, again, I mean, thank you for seeing me at your home.
I know that's probably an inconvenience to you.
It's fine.
It's just, I mean, these kids.
There's so many of them, you know.
They're coming at me like ninjas.
I know.
They do that.
Go down for a little bit while we talk.
Wow.
I hope you didn't go to all this trouble just for me.
I just had a baby, Glenn.
Um, I was kidding.
I'm sorry.
What's the problem? Let's just go over it, okay? Okay, um, Barry Harby.
Barry Harby.
Junior.
Linebacker.
Right.
What? He's trying to tell you he can't read? Yeah, he said that he can't read.
Well, the football players are going to mess with you, you know? He's just trying to get into an easier English class, all right? You can't let these kids ride roughshod all over you like that.
Okay.
Who's next? Right, uh Tiffany Barnes.
Tiffany Barnes.
She wants you to write her a recommendation, right? Yes, she does.
To Vassar.
To Vassar.
She can't get into Vassar any more than I can get into my old jeans, all right? You see what I'm saying? Okay.
Absolutely.
How's she doing with the divorce of her parents? I You know, I have no idea.
Look, I'm a science teacher.
I teach science.
And I'm a little out of my element, you know? Mmm-hmm.
And I don't know if there's any just general words of wisdom that you can give me or, like, if you have a book or anything that I can read or you could refer me to.
It's simple.
I just have no experience.
You need to just connect with these children.
That's all there is to it.
Hey, hon.
You know what? Listen.
I was thinking tonight, if you wanted to, you and Matt could rent a movie and order in some food and you could bring it over here.
Have a little date night here.
You know? What is it with you? "Matt this.
Matt that.
" You know Matt has his own life, right? Who's next? Matt, would you please hurry up.
We're already late.
Yeah.
I know Can we please just go? Put I don't know if we're supposed to pick Julie up or not.
All right? I left her, like, four messages and she never called me back, so I don't know.
Look.
Maybe if we just go by her house and see if she's there.
And if she's there, then we were supposed to get her, and if she's not, then we'll just Maybe we could do that.
Or maybe your testicles are just in her panty drawer, Matt.
Have you ever thought about that? Even I know that she's not What is that? Who's at the door? Yep? Package for Lorraine.
How you doing? Need me to sign for it? No, it's all right.
Thanks.
Grandma, what'd you order? Is that my tiara? Tiara? Is it? Look how pretty.
That'll be beautiful for whenever you just zip over to the Rite Aid.
Twenty-four hundred? Grandma, no, no, no.
It's $2,400.
We gotta send this back.
Look how pretty.
Beautiful.
It's really pretty, but it's really gotta go back.
Oh, boys.
Look at her.
You can't put a price tag on happiness.
Hmm.
And again, we're glad to have Coach MacGregor here.
Came out of those hills of Tennessee to the great state of Texas.
Thank you, Buddy.
Oh, yeah.
Season-opener pep rally is coming up.
And I'm proud to say that Garrity Motors will sponsor and host as we have so many years in the past.
Buddy.
We've all been talking.
We thought it'd be nice if we had a new venue this year.
Well, what do you mean, "We've all been talking"? Well, Lester's got his ranch.
There's a lot of space indoors and out.
We can barbecue.
Make it a family affair.
You know, make it, uh, I don't know, more wholesome.
Garrity Motors is wholesome.
Buddy, you've got a lot going on right now.
What does that mean, Lester? Buddy, it's just a party.
It'll be fun.
And I sure hope you can make it.
Look, I need that in-home care that you promised me.
All right? I call y'all people once Door? Are you gonna get the door? I call y'all people once a week checking in on her.
And I'm taking care of my grandmother who's You want me to talk to them for one second? I'm on hold.

Oh, no.
Hey.
Julie.

Christ with me.
Christ before me.
Christ behind me.
Christ in me.
Christ on my right.
Christ on my left.
Christ above me.
Hey.
How's it going? Christ beneath me.
Christ when I lay down and in our hearts.
Christ in our families.
Christ in the hearts of everyone who thinks of us and Christ in the mouths of everyone who speaks of us.
Blue 20! Blue 20! Hut! McGILL: There he is.
Got him! Yeah.
There he is.
All right.
Good catch, Smash.
See that boy? Thing of beauty! Way to go, Smash! Good catch.
Saracen.
Saracen.
It was a good toss.
All right? Good read, Saracen.
Coach.
Am I a thing of beauty, too? Let me ask you something, Riggins.
Can you count to 50? Yeah.
Good.

Come at me.
Come on! Come on! Hey! Try to do that stuff out there! Yeah! Come on, son! Dig a little deeper, all right? More fight.
Come here, come here, come here.
You're on offense.
All right.
Shake it off, Matt.
All right, water break! Take a break, boys! Hey, Dad.
You're looking good out there.
You sure you're talking about I was just getting my ass handed to me by Riggins, like, five times in a row.
I can't really feel my right ear for some reason.
Give it time.
You're on the team.
That's all that matters.
I'm real proud of you.
I mean it.
All right.
Pretty good.
I know, right? Yeah, definite progress.
So what do you think it means? Well, you're still recovering from your injury.
You've been great about your physical therapy, and that's some of the reason your muscles are coming back.
This improvement in your hands? It's wonderful.
But it's not necessarily indicative of anything else, if that's what you're thinking.
Yeah, but who's to say that Jason, I am.
You're not gonna walk again, Jason.
At least not without a major medical breakthrough and it's something we are still years away from.
Hey, dude.
What's up? Same old crap.
Just told me I'll never walk again.
Again.
Depressing as usual, right? I just thought I know this guy.
He does some experimental stem cell surgeries down in Mexico.
Heard they're doing really good with it.
This is my house! I need you out of here! This is my exercise time! Did you hear me? I said, "Get out!" Help! Get out of my house! Hey.
Get out! Grandma, what's What's going on? Oh, Matt! Thank goodness.
She tried to turn off my TV! Who tried to turn off She did! Okay.
See, Grandma, there's nobody here See? No.
There! Okay.
Who are you? Carlotta.
Carlotta Alonso.
Don't let her throw away my tapioca.
The in-home nurse you demanded.
No! Whoa, hey, that's her tapioca.
This is junk.
That's what I have every night.
You need to get rid of this TV.
Oh, no, no, no.
See Oh, get out of my house! Hey, it's all right.
I can't! It's my job! It's okay to keep the TV on 'cause it seems to be the only thing that calms her down, so It's destroying her mind.
I'm sorry, but a lot of things are going to have to change.
Like? Where am I supposed to sleep? What do you mean, "sleep"? I mean sleep.
I'm going to live here.
Oh, um My Lord.
What you doing, Coach? Why don't you tell me what you're going to say to the committee? I got it down, no worries.
Good.
Let's hear it.
No, Coach.
I want it to sound spontaneous.
You know? From the heart.
That's great.
So let's hear it then.
Be spontaneous.
All right.
I'm sorry that I took those tickets to Justin Timberlake.
Especially when they ain't have no Cristal in the box.
Can you believe that? I don't drink no cheap stuff, Coach.
That's real funny.
You know what's not in that little speech of yours, though? What's that, Coach? How about you put a little contrition into it? Just a little bit.
You know what that is? I got an idea.
But that's probably because I'm not sorry.
You're not sorry? No, sir, I am not.
You hear that, America? I'm not sorry! How about that? Let me ask you something, hotshot.
You pay for this car all yourself? Oh, yeah.
Yeah? All by myself.
You pay for all that nice jewelry you got on there all by yourself? That's nice, yeah.
Yes, sir.
I got a paper route.
Yeah? Oh, come on, Coach! Everybody knows we take stuff.
Everybody knows you take stuff.
Look, I play football.
Hell, they should be paying me anyway.
I bring a million dollars to this school every year.
This stuff started for me when I was in Pee Wee.
I got ice cream.
Quiet.
Hey, babe.
How you doing? We're fine.
Everything's fine.
Me and Gracie are out for a walk.
We're walking to school.
And, in fact, Gracie has a couple words for you.
She'd like to talk to you.
Hold one second.
Hold on.
No.
Don't do that.
Now's not the time.
Don't do that.
Talk to your daddy.
Tami.
She's crying Hello? It's Dad.
It's Daddy.
I love you, Gracie.
I love you.
Dad loves you.
Hey.
I love you.
Now let me talk to Mom.
Tami? Hello? Hey.
Mom! Hey, listen.
Honey, I gotta go.
I'll call you back.
Bye.
I What? I just wanna ask you one thing.
What you doing in the car with me when you have a new baby? Hello? You don't just open the door, Buddy.
This is not your house anymore.
Hey, what are all my trophies doing out in the front? I don't want them anymore.
You can get them out of here by Sunday or they're going in the garbage.
All right.
I will.
And you're early.
Yeah, five minutes.
Yeah, five minutes.
Can I come in my house, please? No.
You know what? Frankly, Buddy, I don't think I feel safe.
I'm sorry, Pam, about the other night.
You know, I admit I lost it.
I just You know, a man can only be pushed so far.
Oh, don't you even dare talk to me about being pushed, Buddy.
I am the victim here.
You know, I think it's about time for us to lose the "innocent victim" stuff.
Oh, you know what? You are too much.
Especially since you got somebody in my I can't believe you.
Huh? Mom.
Come on, Dad.
Let's get this over with.
Okay.
Hey, Bud.
Have fun, okay, sweetie? Hey, Tabs.
Let's go.
Hey, what's that? A soccer ball? Yeah.
All right.
Let's do it.
Gonna have some fun.
She's always, like, the middle man, of the band.
Okay.
You gotta get something really important.
I always have problems with lights like that.
I always want a smoke machine.
So, yeah, we need a smoke machine Hey, Jules.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Hey! Julie! Hey, what're you doing? Hey.
Just picking up my paycheck.
Okay.
So where did you go the other night? Oh, um, I actually had another party to go to.
Oh, cool.
Yeah, no.
I mean, someone had said they saw you get picked up by your dad or something.
Oh, oh, that was my older friend.
Yeah? Yeah.
But I got a lot of studying to do, so I'II I'll see you around.
Oh.
That's right.
School's started, huh? Yeah.
Okay.
So So I guess this is goodbye? Guess it is.
Wow.
All right.
Well, hey, don't go growing up too fast 'cause you're gonna be a heartbreaker.
Guys are just gonna be busting down your door, so watch out.
So I'll see you around, kid.
TAMl: Hey, Glenn.
Hey.
Hope you don't mind.
We just dropped by.
I'm gonna plop down on your couch right now.
I'm exhausted.
I just walked all the way from my house.
You walked all the way from your house? Yeah, we did.
It is boiling hot out.
Yeah, it's That's completely insane.
Well, it's not insane when you have a baby who won't stay quiet unless you're moving her all the time, and I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone.
Right.
What's your problem with that, Glenn? Uh, it's no problem.
It's just that you're profusely sweating, you got a newborn baby, you're walking in I mean, you're perspiring.
It's your glands.
I'm sorry.
I don't need you talking about my perspiration.
I don't need you talking about my glands.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I came here to talk about the job which, it seems to me, you might need a little bit of help with.
I might need a little bit of help with it.
I'm really not qualified to be doing it, to be completely honest with you.
But I think what's more important is your behavior.
Your bringing this baby here.
I'm concerned about the baby's health.
It could get sick, you know? Excuse me, Glenn.
Let me tell you something right now.
Right here and right now.
Okay? This isn't my first barbeque, Glenn.
All right? So I don't appreciate you going on and on and on about what a bad mother I am.
I'm not saying Okay? I'm not trying to say that you're a bad mother.
Oh, really? Really? No, I'm not trying to say Well, that's what it sounds like to me.
I'm not trying to say that you're a bad mother.
Well What I am saying, although Now look what you did.
I'm a little afraid to say it to you right now because frankly you frighten me a little bit, Tami.
Okay? You've got a lot of nerve.
I'm just trying to help.
I'm not your doctor.
Well, no.
I was trying to help.
I was trying to help by coming over here, which I think you need a little bit of help.
So don't you go and you judge me on how What kind of mother I'm being.
How dare you! That's not what I was trying to do, Tami.
Well, how dare you! 'Cause that's what it sounded like to me.
I'm sorry.
Uh, look.
I'm not trying to upset you or anything.
Well, too late.
This was just a bad idea.
You know what? You just do your own Go on.
Do your job.
Want something to drink? You want some water or something? Why don't You know what? I'm gonna get you a glass of water, okay? Hey.
Uh Julie, it's Matt.
Um You told me to call later and it's later, so I'm calling.
Anyways, just call me back and then I'll talk to you later.
Bye.
TAMl: Sorry, Gracie.
Just bunk.
Hey, Mrs.
Taylor.
Oh, hey, Jason Street.
How you doing? I'm good.
How are you? Great.
Awesome.
Never better.
I was wondering if I could have You meet Gracie? Oh, hi, Gracie.
I was wondering if I could have a second of your time? Sure.
I don't want to interrupt.
We can keep walking.
Okay.
No problem.
We're just walking home.
I, uh I've been having this dream lately.
Mmm-hmm.
A lot.
And you're in it.
Oh, Lord.
So in the dream, uh, you, uh, you tell me to get up and walk.
And I do.
I walk.
Uh-huh.
'Cause you told me to.
You make me walk.
Really? Yeah.
Yeah.
And one day after having the dream, I, uh I found out I could do this again.
I could make a fist with my right hand, which I could not do before and I still can't do with my left, but That's great.
That's great, Jason.
Well, I just wanted to talk to you 'cause I feel like it really means something.
I think it means I'm gonna walk again.
Soon.
How about that? So, uh, anyway, I guess I just wanted to say, "Thank you.
" Uh And you have a great day.
Bye, Gracie.
All right? You're welcome.
Yeah.
I'm so glad I got to see you today, Jason.
Me, too.
You have a great day, Mrs.
Taylor.
Thank you.
Hurry up.
Let's go.
Let me ask you something, Coach.
You got that baby on a schedule? Oh, wait.
You wouldn't know that, would you? No, but seriously, how's your wife feel about being alone with the baby? That was a question, Coach.
Hurry up.
Let's go.
Look at that scowl.
I gotta get a picture of this, Coach.
Hold on.
I'm gonna send this to your baby.
You think this is a damn joke, don't you? It's all a big damn joke to you.
All the talent you got, what do you use it for? Huh? Getting free stuff and letting your team down.
You know what my opinion is? You don't deserve to play the game.
What do you think about that? Who do you think you're talking to? You let your team down.
You let yourself down.
Then again, you don't care, do you? Huh? You don't care if you finish out the season.
'Cause I'm sure big old Antwone, he's got it all figured out.
He's got a backup plan, doesn't he? Who am I talking to? Who am I? Who the hell are you? All right.
We're going double time, now! Oh, hey, Landry.
Um I just wanted to say congratulations on making the football team.
I'm actually I'm sort of your rally girl.
You're sort of my rally Yeah.
So you're my rally girl? Mmm-hmm.
Wow.
Landry, your own personal rally girl.
I guess you've arrived.
Anyway, we can work out the details later.
So.
I just wanted to say hi.
Do you think that all human beings are capable of evil? I'm gonna borrow him for a second.
I mean, obviously some are.
Yeah, I don't I was asking her a question.
You don't have to rip me away.
You know what? I'm not a little kid.
You don't have to hold my arm.
Bye.
Bye.
Thank you.
Bye.
What the hell are you doing? What am I doing? Yeah.
Are you insane? You have got to hold it together.
I've got Yes! Do you have no empathy about anything, Tyra? Do you just have ice water running through your veins? Okay.
That's not fair.
You don't need to tell me that.
I mean, a human being is dead because of me.
And what are you doing? You're out trying to have a great time and Hey, you know what? He was a rapist! Okay? You're right, but so that makes it okay? Stop acting like he was some kind of saint.
I'm not acting like he was a saint.
Act like a man then! You want me to act like a man? Yeah.
See, that's real easy for you to say because you're not the one who killed him, are you? You don't have to think about that.
You don't have to close your eyes and hear the sound of his skull cracking every time you go to sleep, do you? Don't tell me to act like a man.
'Cause, you know what, the thing about this is, I would do that again for you in a second because he hurt you and because I'm in love with you, all right? Don't look at me like that.
All right? Don't.
Because you know.
You've known.
You've known forever.
It's not some big secret, all right? All right, let's just not pretend like this was some great thing that we did and let's just Don't tell me to become a man, all right? Because if that's your definition of a man, that's extremely sad.
All right? Look, gentlemen.
I'm not here to make excuses.
I mean, everybody makes mistakes.
I made one.
A big one.
And I'm sorry for that.
I should know better.
My mom raised me better than that.
And I swear to you, on the Bible, I promise you it won't happen again.
I wasn't raised that way.
I know better.
But it was a mistake.
All I want to do is play ball.
That's been my dream.
To make it to the NFL.
Gentlemen, whether he plays at TMU or not, Antwone Beltraine is gonna go to the NFL.
That's my opinion.
Now, he's either gonna go as a selfish, undisciplined punk, or you can allow us to shape him into what I believe he could be.
All right.
This problem is systemic.
It's a culture in football.
It's been allowed to have a life of its own.
We all know that.
It's no great secret.
I mean, he's not the only prima donna.
Fact of the matter is, we're asking for one year to drill some sense into the kid.
Take away his iPhone, take away his cars, ridiculous jewelry and all the other crap, and we make his life miserable for a season.
He's gonna be representing us and, uh, I propose our responsibility lies in doing better by Antwone Beltraine.
Okay.
You see, like, with this, my grandma likes to have newspapers and magazines and stuff around 'cause then she can read it and One time, I had a client who never threw anything away.
She was crushed to death under a pile of newspapers.
Is that what you want, Matt? No.
But I can't live here unless it's clean.
Okay.
We, that means you, should install a guardrail on the steps.
Okay.
The thing we have to be careful of at her age is falling down.
And we're all going to have dinner together from now on.
Okay.
Look.
That's great, but what about her mind? Like, how are we gonna help, you know, help her think? Yeah, she's a little cuckoo.
She needs structure.
She needs the TV off.
She needs crossword puzzles and walks and conversation.
Okay.
But, whoa.
Hey.
Where are you going? I think you people may have a mildew problem.
Okay.
Look.
This is my room.
So Did you draw this? Yeah.
Can I have it back, please? What's the matter? It's good.
Thanks.
But this is my room, so I think we It's kind of depressing.
You need some new curtains.
Curtains? How old are these sheets? I don't know.
I had them for Okay.
Help me move the bed.
No, we're not moving the bed.
No! Really, Matt? Yeah.
Haven't you heard of the Internet? Yeah, that's funny.
That's funny.
Thanks.
I mean Hmm.
Oh, baby.
You are hot.
Hey, Jules.
Come here and feel her.
Tell me if you think she's hot.
Um, I really don't know anything about babies.
I'm sorry.
But Lois is outside waiting, so I really gotta go.
Well, be home by 10:00, please.
All right.

Three games.
Sir? Antwone Beltraine's only going to be out three games.
Oh.
Well, that's good.
You're damn right it is.
He said you put on quite a show up there.
He also said that you hollered at him pretty good.
He kind of has that effect on people.
I bet you were one hell of a high school coach, Taylor.
Appreciate that, Coach.
Thank you.
Hey.
Hey.
How are you doing? I'm doing good.
So have you made it a point of stalking me or something? No.
It's a lucky coincidence, though.
What are you doing? I am de-bugging my friend's windshield.
No, I mean tonight.
What are you all dressed up for? Oh.
Um, it's the big Panther pep rally.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, man.
That sounds like fun.
Yeah.
You have no idea.
I'm sure I don't.
Well, you know what? Why don't you hop in? I'll take you in the most majestic vehicle on Earth.
Um Come on.
Really.
I'll give you a ride.
Okay.
Um, I just gotta go tell Lois though.

I just think that maybe we've changed or something.
The point is it's me.
It's not you.
You didn't do anything.
I know I didn't do anything.
I know it's not me.
I know it's I know it's the Swede.
No.
It's not the Swede.
Look.
How about just be honest with me? Just tell me the truth.
It's just It's the Swede.
It's my parents.
It's me feeling trapped.
It's me turning into my mom.
It's just I don't know.
Nothing seems right anymore.
And I just really need some space.
Where did you go? Where did you stay? Oh, Lester.
Yeah, no, Garrity Garrity Motors is not good enough.
It's not "wholesome.
" This is wholesome.
This is Lester's wholesome trophy room.
Didn't even shoot one of these damn animals probably.
And here is Mr.
Lester out there working that hillbilly.
Mmm-hmm.
Work that old ridge-running hillbilly, mouth-breather.
So, there's Rain's coming down hard.
Jimmy Carter's the president.
The country is depressed.
Dillon is depressed.
By God, it's time to win the state championship.
It's time for Buddy Garrity to get this thing done.
You know what I'm saying? So, it's like Great party, Lester.
Lester! Lester, come over here.

I think I lost, Riggo.
I never lost in my life.
I have lost my family, and now I lost football and my What's going on? What is he, drunk? I don't know, Lyla.
Maybe he's had "one too many.
" What do you think? Go.
I got it.
I can do this.
God, you must be loving this.

Why would I love this? I don't know.
Just go, please.

I love you both so much.
I love you.
I love you.
Why's everything always falling apart? Listen.
I think he'll be just fine.
Believe me, I've seen, uh I've seen a few drunks in my day and he's not one of them.
He's not.
He's just sad, that's all.
He made his bed.
How you doing? I'm okay.
You? I'm great.
You better go.
You probably have a three-way to get to or something.
Good night, Lyla.
All right, Tami.
Make sure she's getting enough fluids.
Offer her formula after you breast feed.
And she needs to eat once every hour, okay? Okay.
Maybe you and your husband can take shifts.
Yeah.
That's not gonna happen.
She's gonna be fine.
Okay.
Do you have anybody you can call? Maybe you shouldn't drive yourself home.
Um Babe, she's fine.
I swear.
The doctor brought her fever right down and she's starting to sleep now.
She's nice and quiet.
No, I don't want you running home.
You just stay.
Sit tight where you are.
I don't want you coming back here, honey.
Honey, I'm fine.
I swear.
And she's good.
It's a trip to the emergency room.
You know how many times Julie got dragged over here.
I love you, baby.
I promise.
Okay.
All right.
I love you so much.
Bye.
Hey.
Hey, Glenn.
Thank you for coming.
Are Are you okay? Yeah, I'm good.
It looks like she's waking up on you.
Sorry.
How are y'all? You're so sweet.
I'm sorry.
I know it's late.
No, no, you know, it's fine.
I wasn't doing anything.
You're so sweet and I didn't have anybody else to call and No, it's Thank you very much.
I really appreciate it.
You're real nice.
I'm sorry I was kind of a bitch to you.
I'm just a little emotional at the moment.
You weren't a bitch to me at all.
It's fine.
Okay? It's really no big deal.
You're so sweet.
Thank you.
Do you have everything? I think so.
Yeah, I think we got it.
Okay.
Let's go.
Oh, hi, sweetheart.
It's a beautiful baby.
Thank you.
Hey, you know, this might not be any of my business, but I'm not trying to step over the line, but you know this whole ordeal, this living apart from your husband thing? What was the point of that exactly? I don't know.
That was just my idea.
It was just a stupid idea.
How did you get in here? I'm glad he's dead.
God, I You know, he Landry, he wasn't going to stop.
He was just gonna keep on doing that to me.
You know, maybe something's wrong with me, but I am I am so glad he's dead.
I just, um I wish I was the one who killed him.
Don't.
Don't say that.
Don't.
You are the best guy I have ever known.
No, and if anything happens to you because of me, I will never I would never forgive myself.
I'm so sorry.
Don't.
No.
Don't be sorry.
There's nothing to be sorry about.
We're okay.
We're gonna be fine.
Stop.
We're gonna be okay.
Okay? We're gonna be okay.
Come on, Tami.
Take a deep breath.
Hey.
Hey.
You look good.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
It's probably because yesterday I was baptized and accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
Enjoy Jesus.
Yeah, enjoy your depraved hedonism.
Say hi to the Swede.
Who's "the Swede"? Some boy she's flirting with at the pool.
If you leave Matt, no one is going to love you any less.
You realize that? I really miss having you around.
No.
Maybe it's colic.
Oh, honey.
It's not colic.
Well, Julie, she was colic.
I love you so much, sweetheart, but you don't know what you're talking about.
Julie was not colicky.
The only time Julie ever cried was the time you slammed her hand in the car door going to the store.
First of all, that was 15 years ago, and you're the one that let her get her hand stuck.
All right, I'm sorry.
You know what? Were you asleep when I called? No.
Yes, you were.
Go back to sleep.
Well, no.
There's no sense in me going back to sleep now that I'm awake.
Go ahead and talk to me.
All right, darling.
How's work going? It's good.
Well, that doesn't sound very convincing.
It is good.
It's good.
It's like being, you know, it's like It's, like, this bed's uncomfortable, for one thing.
And the other thing is that, you know, it's like being the new kid in school.
There's this inner circle that, you know, you're never part of the inner circle.
All you have to do is be indispensable.
And you and I both know that's just what you do so perfectly.
Well, that's a very wifely thing for you to say.
Hmm.
Oh, now you got her crying.
I miss you and I love you.
I love you, baby.
I love you.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Landry, what time is it? Why are you calling me? Look, I can't find my watch.
What? I can't I can't find my watch.
The last time I had it was You know what? Even if somebody found that watch, they're not gonna know it's yours.
Okay? Yeah.
Well, that's fine, Tyra.
Except for the fact that it's engraved, "To Landry.
From Grandpa.
" Okay, you need to take a deep breath here and calm down.
It's probably with the body.
That's all I'm saying.
"Take a deep " I can take all the breaths that I want, but that's not gonna matter whenever I'm in the electric chair.
Okay.
Landry.
This is not normal, what we're doing right here.
Walking around at Well, I'm sorry if I'm embarrassing you right now.
Is that all No, you're not embarrassing me but we're not supposed to return to the scene of the crime.
Oh, really? I didn't realize you were so knowledgeable about this.
Maybe you should just write a "How To" book on how to Oh, that's helping right now.
Those nasty comments.
That's great.
I'm trying to hold it together.
Think anyone's looking for him? You know, friends or family or someone? This Let's go home.
Okay? Come on.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Watch your footwork.
Eyes up.
Hut! Hey, Eric.
Yeah? Coach wants to see you.
All right.
Keep it up.
Hut! Coach, I know it's I do wind sprints, balance.
Antwone.
Coaches.
Hey, Eric.
Antwone.
Antwone here is in a little trouble with the infractions committee for accepting gifts from a booster.
Isn't that right, Antwone? Taylor, I need for you to escort this knuckle-head to his hearing tomorrow because I don't trust that he can make it there on his own.
We fully expect him to be suspended for the season because he was stupid enough to get caught at the Justin Timberlake show with an agent.
Justin Timberlake.
Hope he was worth it, Antwone.
Hey, hey, hey.
Step off.
That little white boy's got soul.
I don't want to hear another word out of you.
What about How about practice? Don't worry about it.
We'll cover it.
All right.
Since we got that covered, we taking my car.
Hello.
Hey, Glenn.
Come on in.
Hi.
Gosh.
Thank you so much You're welcome.
for seeing me at home like this.
Let's Why don't we Let's just go on in the kitchen there.
Okay? Okay.
You can probably find a spot on the table.
Really, again, I mean, thank you for seeing me at your home.
I know that's probably an inconvenience to you.
It's fine.
It's just, I mean, these kids.
There's so many of them, you know.
They're coming at me like ninjas.
I know.
They do that.
Go down for a little bit while we talk.
Wow.
I hope you didn't go to all this trouble just for me.
I just had a baby, Glenn.
Um, I was kidding.
I'm sorry.
What's the problem? Let's just go over it, okay? Okay, um, Barry Harby.
Barry Harby.
Junior.
Linebacker.
Right.
What? He's trying to tell you he can't read? Yeah, he said that he can't read.
Well, the football players are going to mess with you, you know? He's just trying to get into an easier English class, all right? You can't let these kids ride roughshod all over you like that.
Okay.
Who's next? Right, uh Tiffany Barnes.
Tiffany Barnes.
She wants you to write her a recommendation, right? Yes, she does.
To Vassar.
To Vassar.
She can't get into Vassar any more than I can get into my old jeans, all right? You see what I'm saying? Okay.
Absolutely.
How's she doing with the divorce of her parents? I You know, I have no idea.
Look, I'm a science teacher.
I teach science.
And I'm a little out of my element, you know? Mmm-hmm.
And I don't know if there's any just general words of wisdom that you can give me or, like, if you have a book or anything that I can read or you could refer me to.
It's simple.
I just have no experience.
You need to just connect with these children.
That's all there is to it.
Hey, hon.
You know what? Listen.
I was thinking tonight, if you wanted to, you and Matt could rent a movie and order in some food and you could bring it over here.
Have a little date night here.
You know? What is it with you? "Matt this.
Matt that.
" You know Matt has his own life, right? Who's next? Matt, would you please hurry up.
We're already late.
Yeah.
I know Can we please just go? Put I don't know if we're supposed to pick Julie up or not.
All right? I left her, like, four messages and she never called me back, so I don't know.
Look.
Maybe if we just go by her house and see if she's there.
And if she's there, then we were supposed to get her, and if she's not, then we'll just Maybe we could do that.
Or maybe your testicles are just in her panty drawer, Matt.
Have you ever thought about that? Even I know that she's not What is that? Who's at the door? Yep? Package for Lorraine.
How you doing? Need me to sign for it? No, it's all right.
Thanks.
Grandma, what'd you order? Is that my tiara? Tiara? Is it? Look how pretty.
That'll be beautiful for whenever you just zip over to the Rite Aid.
Twenty-four hundred? Grandma, no, no, no.
It's $2,400.
We gotta send this back.
Look how pretty.
Beautiful.
It's really pretty, but it's really gotta go back.
Oh, boys.
Look at her.
You can't put a price tag on happiness.
Hmm.
And again, we're glad to have Coach MacGregor here.
Came out of those hills of Tennessee to the great state of Texas.
Thank you, Buddy.
Oh, yeah.
Season-opener pep rally is coming up.
And I'm proud to say that Garrity Motors will sponsor and host as we have so many years in the past.
Buddy.
We've all been talking.
We thought it'd be nice if we had a new venue this year.
Well, what do you mean, "We've all been talking"? Well, Lester's got his ranch.
There's a lot of space indoors and out.
We can barbecue.
Make it a family affair.
You know, make it, uh, I don't know, more wholesome.
Garrity Motors is wholesome.
Buddy, you've got a lot going on right now.
What does that mean, Lester? Buddy, it's just a party.
It'll be fun.
And I sure hope you can make it.
Look, I need that in-home care that you promised me.
All right? I call y'all people once Door? Are you gonna get the door? I call y'all people once a week checking in on her.
And I'm taking care of my grandmother who's You want me to talk to them for one second? I'm on hold.
You can't really talk You're obviously getting nothing accomplished because it's been 30 minutes.
Oh, no.
Hey.
Julie.
Hey.
Um.
Oh, no.
I didn't know if you needed a ride.
So I called you a couple times.

Christ with me.
Christ before me.
Christ behind me.
Christ in me.
Christ on my right.
Christ on my left.
Christ above me.
Hey.
How's it going? Christ beneath me.
Christ when I lay down and in our hearts.
Christ in our families.
Christ in the hearts of everyone who thinks of us and Christ in the mouths of everyone who speaks of us.
Blue 20! Blue 20! Hut! McGILL: There he is.
Got him! Yeah.

Saracen.

It was a good toss.
All right? Good read, Saracen.
Coach.
Am I a thing of beauty, too? Let me ask you something, Riggins.
Can you count to 50? Yeah.
Good.

Come here, come here, come here.
You're on offense.
All right.
Shake it off, Matt.
All right, water break! Take a break, boys! Hey, Dad.
You're looking good out there.
You sure you're talking about I was just getting my ass handed to me by Riggins, like, five times in a row.
I can't really feel my right ear for some reason.
Give it time.
You're on the team.
That's all that matters.
I'm real proud of you.
I mean it.
All right.
Pretty good.
I know, right? Yeah, definite progress.
So what do you think it means? Well, you're still recovering from your injury.
You've been great about your physical therapy, and that's some of the reason your muscles are coming back.
This improvement in your hands? It's wonderful.
But it's not necessarily indicative of anything else, if that's what you're thinking.
Yeah, but who's to say that Jason, I am.
You're not gonna walk again, Jason.
At least not without a major medical breakthrough and it's something we are still years away from.
Hey, dude.
What's up? Same old crap.
Just told me I'll never walk again.
Again.
Depressing as usual, right? I just thought I know this guy.
He does some experimental stem cell surgeries down in Mexico.
Heard they're doing really good with it.
This is my house! I need you out of here! This is my exercise time! Did you hear me? I said, "Get out!" Help! Get out of my house! Hey.
Get out! Grandma, what's What's going on? Oh, Matt! Thank goodness.
She tried to turn off my TV! Who tried to turn off She did! Okay.
See, Grandma, there's nobody here See? No.
There! Okay.
Who are you? Carlotta.
Carlotta Alonso.
Don't let her throw away my tapioca.
The in-home nurse you demanded.
No! Whoa, hey, that's her tapioca.
This is junk.
That's what I have every night.
You need to get rid of this TV.
Oh, no, no, no.
See Oh, get out of my house! Hey, it's all right.
I can't! It's my job! It's okay to keep the TV on 'cause it seems to be the only thing that calms her down, so It's destroying her mind.
I'm sorry, but a lot of things are going to have to change.
Like? Where am I supposed to sleep? What do you mean, "sleep"? I mean sleep.
I'm going to live here.
Oh, um My Lord.
What you doing, Coach? Why don't you tell me what you're going to say to the committee? I got it down, no worries.
Good.
Let's hear it.
No, Coach.
I want it to sound spontaneous.
You know? From the heart.
That's great.
So let's hear it then.
Be spontaneous.
All right.
I'm sorry that I took those tickets to Justin Timberlake.
Especially when they ain't have no Cristal in the box.
Can you believe that? I don't drink no cheap stuff, Coach.
That's real funny.
You know what's not in that little speech of yours, though? What's that, Coach? How about you put a little contrition into it? Just a little bit.
You know what that is? I got an idea.
But that's probably because I'm not sorry.
You're not sorry? No, sir, I am not.
You hear that, America? I'm not sorry! How about that? Let me ask you something, hotshot.
You pay for this car all yourself? Oh, yeah.
Yeah? All by myself.
You pay for all that nice jewelry you got on there all by yourself? That's nice, yeah.
Yes, sir.
I got a paper route.
Yeah? Oh, come on, Coach! Everybody knows we take stuff.
Everybody knows you take stuff.
Look, I play football.
Hell, they should be paying me anyway.
I bring a million dollars to this school every year.
This stuff started for me when I was in Pee Wee.
I got ice cream.
Quiet.
Hey, babe.
How you doing? We're fine.
Everything's fine.
Me and Gracie are out for a walk.
We're walking to school.
And, in fact, Gracie has a couple words for you.
She'd like to talk to you.
Hold one second.
Hold on.
No.
Don't do that.
Now's not the time.
Don't do that.
Talk to your daddy.
Tami.
She's crying Hello? It's Dad.
It's Daddy.
I love you, Gracie.

Dad loves you.
Hey.
I love you.
Now let me talk to Mom.
Tami? Hello? Hey.
Mom! Hey, listen.
Honey, I gotta go.
I'll call you back.
Bye.
I What? I just wanna ask you one thing.
What you doing in the car with me when you have a new baby? Hello? You don't just open the door, Buddy.
This is not your house anymore.
Hey, what are all my trophies doing out in the front? I don't want them anymore.
You can get them out of here by Sunday or they're going in the garbage.
All right.
I will.
And you're early.
Yeah, five minutes.
Yeah, five minutes.
Can I come in my house, please? No.
You know what? Frankly, Buddy, I don't think I feel safe.
I'm sorry, Pam, about the other night.
You know, I admit I lost it.
I just You know, a man can only be pushed so far.
Oh, don't you even dare talk to me about being pushed, Buddy.
I am the victim here.
You know, I think it's about time for us to lose the "innocent victim" stuff.
Oh, you know what? You are too much.
Especially since you got somebody in my I can't believe you.
Huh? Mom.
Come on, Dad.
Let's get this over with.
Okay.
Hey, Bud.
Have fun, okay, sweetie? Hey, Tabs.
Let's go.

Let's do it.
Gonna have some fun.
She's always, like, the middle man, of the band.
Okay.
You gotta get something really important.
I always have problems with lights like that.
I always want a smoke machine.
So, yeah, we need a smoke machine Hey, Jules.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Hey! Julie! Hey, what're you doing? Hey.
Just picking up my paycheck.
Okay.
So where did you go the other night? Oh, um, I actually had another party to go to.
Oh, cool.
Yeah, no.
I mean, someone had said they saw you get picked up by your dad or something.
Oh, oh, that was my older friend.
Yeah? Yeah.
But I got a lot of studying to do, so I'II I'll see you around.
Oh.
That's right.
School's started, huh? Yeah.
Okay.
So So I guess this is goodbye? Guess it is.
Wow.
All right.
Well, hey, don't go growing up too fast 'cause you're gonna be a heartbreaker.
Guys are just gonna be busting down your door, so watch out.
So I'll see you around, kid.
TAMl: Hey, Glenn.
Hey.
Hope you don't mind.
We just dropped by.
I'm gonna plop down on your couch right now.
I'm exhausted.
I just walked all the way from my house.
You walked all the way from your house? Yeah, we did.
It is boiling hot out.
Yeah, it's That's completely insane.
Well, it's not insane when you have a baby who won't stay quiet unless you're moving her all the time, and I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone.
Right.
What's your problem with that, Glenn? Uh, it's no problem.
It's just that you're profusely sweating, you got a newborn baby, you're walking in I mean, you're perspiring.
It's your glands.
I'm sorry.
I don't need you talking about my perspiration.
I don't need you talking about my glands.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I came here to talk about the job which, it seems to me, you might need a little bit of help with.
I might need a little bit of help with it.
I'm really not qualified to be doing it, to be completely honest with you.
But I think what's more important is your behavior.
Your bringing this baby here.
I'm concerned about the baby's health.
It could get sick, you know? Excuse me, Glenn.
Let me tell you something right now.
Right here and right now.
Okay? This isn't my first barbeque, Glenn.
All right? So I don't appreciate you going on and on and on about what a bad mother I am.
I'm not saying Okay? I'm not trying to say that you're a bad mother.
Oh, really? Really? No, I'm not trying to say Well, that's what it sounds like to me.
I'm not trying to say that you're a bad mother.
Well What I am saying, although Now look what you did.
I'm a little afraid to say it to you right now because frankly you frighten me a little bit, Tami.
Okay? You've got a lot of nerve.
I'm just trying to help.
I'm not your doctor.
Well, no.
I was trying to help.
I was trying to help by coming over here, which I think you need a little bit of help.
So don't you go and you judge me on how What kind of mother I'm being.
How dare you! That's not what I was trying to do, Tami.
Well, how dare you! 'Cause that's what it sounded like to me.
I'm sorry.
Uh, look.
I'm not trying to upset you or anything.
Well, too late.
This was just a bad idea.
You know what? You just do your own Go on.
Do your job.
Want something to drink? You want some water or something? Why don't You know what? I'm gonna get you a glass of water, okay? Hey.
Uh Julie, it's Matt.
Um You told me to call later and it's later, so I'm calling.
Anyways, just call me back and then I'll talk to you later.
Bye.
TAMl: Sorry, Gracie.
Just bunk.
Hey, Mrs.
Taylor.
Oh, hey, Jason Street.
How you doing? I'm good.
How are you? Great.
Awesome.
Never better.
I was wondering if I could have You meet Gracie? Oh, hi, Gracie.
I was wondering if I could have a second of your time? Sure.
I don't want to interrupt.
We can keep walking.
Okay.
No problem.
We're just walking home.
I, uh I've been having this dream lately.
Mmm-hmm.
A lot.
And you're in it.
Oh, Lord.
So in the dream, uh, you, uh, you tell me to get up and walk.
And I do.
I walk.
Uh-huh.
'Cause you told me to.
You make me walk.
Really? Yeah.
Yeah.
And one day after having the dream, I, uh I found out I could do this again.
I could make a fist with my right hand, which I could not do before and I still can't do with my left, but That's great.
That's great, Jason.
Well, I just wanted to talk to you 'cause I feel like it really means something.
I think it means I'm gonna walk again.
Soon.
How about that? So, uh, anyway, I guess I just wanted to say, "Thank you.
" Uh And you have a great day.
Bye, Gracie.
All right? You're welcome.
Yeah.
I'm so glad I got to see you today, Jason.
Me, too.
You have a great day, Mrs.
Taylor.
Thank you.
Hurry up.
Let's go.
Let me ask you something, Coach.
You got that baby on a schedule? Oh, wait.
You wouldn't know that, would you? No, but seriously, how's your wife feel about being alone with the baby? That was a question, Coach.
Hurry up.
Let's go.
Look at that scowl.
I gotta get a picture of this, Coach.
Hold on.
I'm gonna send this to your baby.
You think this is a damn joke, don't you? It's all a big damn joke to you.
All the talent you got, what do you use it for? Huh? Getting free stuff and letting your team down.
You know what my opinion is? You don't deserve to play the game.
What do you think about that? Who do you think you're talking to? You let your team down.
You let yourself down.
Then again, you don't care, do you? Huh? You don't care if you finish out the season.
'Cause I'm sure big old Antwone, he's got it all figured out.
He's got a backup plan, doesn't he? Who am I talking to? Who am I? Who the hell are you? All right.
We're going double time, now! Oh, hey, Landry.
Um I just wanted to say congratulations on making the football team.
I'm actually I'm sort of your rally girl.
You're sort of my rally Yeah.
So you're my rally girl? Mmm-hmm.
Wow.
Landry, your own personal rally girl.
I guess you've arrived.
Anyway, we can work out the details later.
So.
I just wanted to say hi.
Do you think that all human beings are capable of evil? I'm gonna borrow him for a second.
I mean, obviously some are.
Yeah, I don't I was asking her a question.
You don't have to rip me away.
You know what? I'm not a little kid.
You don't have to hold my arm.
Bye.
Bye.
Thank you.
Bye.
What the hell are you doing? What am I doing? Yeah.
Are you insane? You have got to hold it together.
I've got Yes! Do you have no empathy about anything, Tyra? Do you just have ice water running through your veins? Okay.
That's not fair.
You don't need to tell me that.
I mean, a human being is dead because of me.
And what are you doing? You're out trying to have a great time and Hey, you know what? He was a rapist! Okay? You're right, but so that makes it okay? Stop acting like he was some kind of saint.
I'm not acting like he was a saint.
Act like a man then! You want me to act like a man? Yeah.
See, that's real easy for you to say because you're not the one who killed him, are you? You don't have to think about that.
You don't have to close your eyes and hear the sound of his skull cracking every time you go to sleep, do you? Don't tell me to act like a man.
'Cause, you know what, the thing about this is, I would do that again for you in a second because he hurt you and because I'm in love with you, all right? Don't look at me like that.
All right? Don't.
Because you know.
You've known.
You've known forever.
It's not some big secret, all right? All right, let's just not pretend like this was some great thing that we did and let's just Don't tell me to become a man, all right? Because if that's your definition of a man, that's extremely sad.
All right? Look, gentlemen.
I'm not here to make excuses.
I mean, everybody makes mistakes.
I made one.
A big one.
And I'm sorry for that.
I should know better.
My mom raised me better than that.
And I swear to you, on the Bible, I promise you it won't happen again.
I wasn't raised that way.
I know better.
But it was a mistake.
All I want to do is play ball.
That's been my dream.
To make it to the NFL.
Gentlemen, whether he plays at TMU or not, Antwone Beltraine is gonna go to the NFL.
That's my opinion.
Now, he's either gonna go as a selfish, undisciplined punk, or you can allow us to shape him into what I believe he could be.
All right.
This problem is systemic.
It's a culture in football.
It's been allowed to have a life of its own.
We all know that.
It's no great secret.
I mean, he's not the only prima donna.
Fact of the matter is, we're asking for one year to drill some sense into the kid.
Take away his iPhone, take away his cars, ridiculous jewelry and all the other crap, and we make his life miserable for a season.
He's gonna be representing us and, uh, I propose our responsibility lies in doing better by Antwone Beltraine.
Okay.
You see, like, with this, my grandma likes to have newspapers and magazines and stuff around 'cause then she can read it and One time, I had a client who never threw anything away.
She was crushed to death under a pile of newspapers.
Is that what you want, Matt? No.
But I can't live here unless it's clean.
Okay.
We, that means you, should install a guardrail on the steps.
Okay.
The thing we have to be careful of at her age is falling down.
And we're all going to have dinner together from now on.
Okay.
Look.
That's great, but what about her mind? Like, how are we gonna help, you know, help her think? Yeah, she's a little cuckoo.
She needs structure.
She needs the TV off.
She needs crossword puzzles and walks and conversation.
Okay.
But, whoa.
Hey.
Where are you going? I think you people may have a mildew problem.
Okay.
Look.
This is my room.
So Did you draw this? Yeah.
Can I have it back, please? What's the matter? It's good.
Thanks.
But this is my room, so I think we It's kind of depressing.
You need some new curtains.
Curtains? How old are these sheets? I don't know.
I had them for Okay.
Help me move the bed.
No, we're not moving the bed.
No! Really, Matt? Yeah.
Haven't you heard of the Internet? Yeah, that's funny.
That's funny.
Thanks.
I mean Hmm.
Oh, baby.
You are hot.
Hey, Jules.
Come here and feel her.
Tell me if you think she's hot.
Um, I really don't know anything about babies.
I'm sorry.
But Lois is outside waiting, so I really gotta go.
Well, be home by 10:00, please.
All right.
I love you.
Love you.
Oh, Gracie Belle, don't do this to me.
Yeah? Coach, you wanted to see me? Yeah.
Come in here, Taylor.
Three games.
Sir? Antwone Beltraine's only going to be out three games.
Oh.
Well, that's good.
You're damn right it is.
He said you put on quite a show up there.
He also said that you hollered at him pretty good.
He kind of has that effect on people.
I bet you were one hell of a high school coach, Taylor.
Appreciate that, Coach.
Thank you.
Hey.
Hey.
How are you doing? I'm doing good.
So have you made it a point of stalking me or something? No.
It's a lucky coincidence, though.
What are you doing? I am de-bugging my friend's windshield.
No, I mean tonight.
What are you all dressed up for? Oh.
Um, it's the big Panther pep rally.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, man.
That sounds like fun.
Yeah.
You have no idea.
I'm sure I don't.
Well, you know what? Why don't you hop in? I'll take you in the most majestic vehicle on Earth.
Um Come on.
Really.
I'll give you a ride.
Okay.
Um, I just gotta go tell Lois though.
Yeah.
Hey, we are so happy to have you all come out here.
And we especially want to thank you for coming out to my ranch here tonight.
