KATE: Whatever, Crop Top.
Ew! What is that flavor? It's orange zest.

But he caught some tough breaks and suffered some losses.
And that's when he really showed himself to be a star.
(CHEERS, APPLAUSE) He fought through the adversity and the heartache.
JACK: And he found success on another path.
He is, for all you kids out there, a living, breathing example of outer and inner strength.
This kid is tough as hell.

I always thought that his legs were different lengths, - but I guess, looking back - He was drunk.
- He was friggin' drunk.
(LAUGHS) - Yeah.
(SIGHS) I feel like I could be standing completely naked out here.
You know, all anyone would ever see is me in that number one jersey.

They just cheer.
KELLY: Hey.
Just the Manny I've been looking for.
You want to party? (SNIFFS) Uh, I couldn't believe it when you walked back into that reception tonight.
I was sure you'd left your phone or something.
And then you pointed at me and said, "Let's get out of here.
" - (CHUCKLES SOFTLY) - Yeah, no, I was there.
It was, like, 20 years of fantasy energy just going, pow, pow, pow, pow! All right, cool.
You were nice to me in high school.
I mean, you never knew my name, but we'd pass in the halls, and you'd always smile.
Say hi.
And once, at one of Hannah Brubaker's summer parties, you saw Mikey Doyle getting a little handsy with me, and you pulled him away.
I did that? I thought to myself, "Now, that is a good guy.
" It's weird, the things you remember.
Anyway, babble, babble.
"Charlotte, stop talking, please.
" (LAUGHS) Whoa.
Are you okay? - Your sweat glands are in overdrive.
- Yeah, know why? I think it's just, uh I think it may be If you could crack a window or something? - Yeah.
I'm on it.

Actually, will you excuse me for a second? Oh, mi baño es su baño.
Yeah.
(LAUGHS) (SIGHS) CHARLOTTE: You okay in there? Yeah.
(INHALES AND EXHALES DEEPLY) (TOILET FLUSHING) You know, I feel like it's like a blood sugar thing or something happening with me, 'cause I, I haven't eaten since the airplane, you know? So, I was, I was wondering, uh, maybe you could whip us up - a snack or something.
- Say no more.
One bedspread picnic coming right up.
Ah, that'd be great.

These days, I seem to think a lot About the things that I forgot to do And all the times I had the chance to Hey, how are you? How's it going? - Name and birthday? - Tony Tisdale.
12-10-69.
Doctors' handwriting sure gets worse every year.

How long do I have the cast on? - Am I gonna make the playoffs? - Well The thing is, Kev, you - Look, if anyone can beat the odds - Dad, just say it.
The kind of break you have, the doctor called it catastrophic.
He thinks you'll be able to run again, thank God, but the physical demands of the game he-he doesn't think that your knee can bear that kind of stress.
(CHUCKLES) Like soon? (SIGHS) I know it's a difficult thing to hear.
He's wrong.
(LAUGHS) - I can come back from this.
- Kevin.
Yeah, you know what, maybe I don't go to Notre Dame.

I believe you.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I've been awful to you.
- And I can do better.

I would take this on for you.
Okay? I would take on this and anything else if I could.

(EXHALES, BREATHES HEAVILY) Hey.
I got this at a very hopeless time in my life.
Someone very special gave it to me back in Vietnam.
It's a Buddhist symbol of purpose.
I was feeling very lost when I got that.
But I put it on, and I moved forward.
And you know when I was wearing it? The day you were born.
The moment you came out, my Number One.
And when I held you, for the first time, right here in this hospital, it hit me like a bolt of lightning.

I wasn't good at football, Toby.
I was great.
Listen, I was just hoping we could get one more refill on the prescription.
I-I don't know why it's that big of a deal.

Maybe it was a forehand Remember.
So, do you want some towels? Uh No, you know what, I'm all set on towels.
But since you're here, Martina, and we're already mid-disturb, come on in.

Yeah, no, go nuts.
(GROANS) Kate, how many times do I have to tell you? You don't have to call me every 15 seconds.

- JACK: Fixed it! Good job, babe! Wait, wait, is that what you're wearing? - Mm-hmm.
-The coach from Pitt is gonna be here any second.
You should really stop borrowing shirts from Sophie, Kevin.
I don't really think the coach is gonna care what shirt I'm wearing.
KATE: Whatever, Crop Top.
Ew! What is that flavor? It's orange zest.
I panicked and added it last minute.
Can you please go put on a collared shirt and a nice pair of pants? You think we can, like, move Dad's AA stuff? Yes, we can do that.
- It's been, like, six months.
- Mm-hmm.
- And it takes as long as it takes.
- Change.
- Well, it's just so lame - JACK: So I think the power's gonna hold.
You ready to wow this coach, college boy? God, it's just Pitt, you know? I didn't even really want to meet with the guy.
Yeah.
We know.
Go put on a collared shirt, though, and some pants with a fly.

- Kevin, that is not the point.
Do you have any idea how lucky you are to get an opportunity like that? It's not luck.
It's talent.
(REBECCA SCOFFS) JACK: Okay.
You get your ass downstairs, and you write him an apology letter.
- Now.
- Why? Because you've been apologizing to the world lately? - Kevin, it's part of his 12 Steps.

I know that.
Do you have something you want to say to me? Do you have something you want to say to me? Nope.

I, uh I had the pleasure of coaching Kevin for four yea well, three and a half years.
And in my career, I never saw a kid with so much natural talent, confidence or charisma.
But he caught some tough breaks and suffered some losses.
And that's when he really showed himself to be a star.
(CHEERS, APPLAUSE) He fought through the adversity and the heartache.
JACK: And he found success on another path.
He is, for all you kids out there, a living, breathing example of outer and inner strength.
This kid is tough as hell.
Kevin, I know this little award may not be much to you But for me, who knew you when, who knew your father (VOICE BREAKING): you coming back here to get this award (CLEARS THROAT) We are all very proud.

The truth is, I I'm not worthy of this award.
Or any honor, for that matter.
So Uh (APPLAUSE, CHEERING) (WHOOPING) Can't sleep either, huh? Um, just hungry, and we don't have anything good to eat.
Listen, I wanted to talk to you.

C.
I'm-I'm probably gonna miss your football game.
It's fine.
What happened earlier tonight how mad I got? My fuse has been very short lately with everything that I'm dealing with.
I shouldn't have yelled at you.
It wasn't right.

All right, so, we're gonna see you guys after Kev's game? - Yes.
- Dad, come on.
It's a four-hour drive.
I don't want to get there late and make a bad impression.

Well, you couldn't ask for a better number.
Didn't ask for it.
Just got it.
I was, uh, first born in my family, so it was, like (SNIFFS) already my nickname.
You know, I was branded at birth.
(SIGHS) Very first one to learn how to walk.
I was, I was, I was always, you know, - first one picked in any sports team.
- (CHUCKLES) I was the first boy to kiss a girl in school.
Number One.
First grown man to get drunk in a high school quad? That was Jim Kalotchnik.
Oh, the janitor.
(CHUCKLING): That's right.
I always thought that his legs were different lengths, - but I guess, looking back - He was drunk.
- He was friggin' drunk.
(LAUGHS) - Yeah.
(SIGHS) I feel like I could be standing completely naked out here.
You know, all anyone would ever see is me in that number one jersey.
Well that's not all that I would see.
Please don't do that.

But everybody loves him anyway.

He says, "That's my son.
" "That's my son.

He cocks back.
- Boom! He's down, folks.

(IMITATES CROWD CHEERING) The crowd goes wild.
What will he do with his lucky second chance? Ladies and gentlemen, he'll blow it.
That's what he'll do.
He blows it all.
Surely the universe has to punish him this time, right? Wrong.
He gets the girl back.
- Now he's got the girl back, - and-and it's a movie this time.
And then pop! Oh.
There it goes, the same knee.

And he tries so hard to be strong, and he needs painkillers to get through it.
And even when he tries to tell people how pathetic he is, it They just They don't hear it.
They just cheer.
KELLY: Hey.
Just the Manny I've been looking for.
You want to party? (SNIFFS) Uh, I couldn't believe it when you walked back into that reception tonight.
I was sure you'd left your phone or something.
And then you pointed at me and said, "Let's get out of here.
" - (CHUCKLES SOFTLY) - Yeah, no, I was there.
It was, like, 20 years of fantasy energy just going, pow, pow, pow, pow! All right, cool.
You were nice to me in high school.
I mean, you never knew my name, but we'd pass in the halls, and you'd always smile.
Say hi.
And once, at one of Hannah Brubaker's summer parties, you saw Mikey Doyle getting a little handsy with me, and you pulled him away.
I did that? I thought to myself, "Now, that is a good guy.
" It's weird, the things you remember.
Anyway, babble, babble.
"Charlotte, stop talking, please.
" (LAUGHS) Whoa.
Are you okay? - Your sweat glands are in overdrive.
- Yeah, know why? I think it's just, uh I think it may be If you could crack a window or something? - Yeah.
I'm on it.
- It's hot in here.
(GROANS) CHARLOTTE: I still don't get why you wanted to come here.
Your room at The Riverview's probably super nice.
Actually, will you excuse me for a second? Oh, mi baño es su baño.
Yeah.
(LAUGHS) (SIGHS) CHARLOTTE: You okay in there? Yeah.
(INHALES AND EXHALES DEEPLY) (TOILET FLUSHING) You know, I feel like it's like a blood sugar thing or something happening with me, 'cause I, I haven't eaten since the airplane, you know? So, I was, I was wondering, uh, maybe you could whip us up - a snack or something.
- Say no more.
One bedspread picnic coming right up.
Ah, that'd be great.
(SNIFFS) CHARLOTTE: Yodels and cheese okay? I haven't gone shopping in a while.
Yeah.

Just say it.
How long do I have the cast on? - Am I gonna make the playoffs? - Well The thing is, Kev, you - Look, if anyone can beat the odds - Dad, just say it.
The kind of break you have, the doctor called it catastrophic.
He thinks you'll be able to run again, thank God, but the physical demands of the game he-he doesn't think that your knee can bear that kind of stress.
(CHUCKLES) Like soon? (SIGHS) I know it's a difficult thing to hear.
He's wrong.
(LAUGHS) - I can come back from this.
- Kevin.
Yeah, you know what, maybe I don't go to Notre Dame.
(LAUGHS) I'll go to Pitt, I don't care.
I wrote Coach Waltering that nice letter, like you said, Dad.
- It was really nice.
- I know.
I believe you.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I've been awful to you.
- And I can do better.
- Kev, hey.
I need you to listen to me, bud.
I would take this on for you.
Okay? I would take on this and anything else if I could.
And I know that you've had this dream for a very long time, and God knows you have such a beautiful talent, but I know, in my gut, it is not the only one that you have.
(EXHALES, BREATHES HEAVILY) Hey.
I got this at a very hopeless time in my life.
Someone very special gave it to me back in Vietnam.
It's a Buddhist symbol of purpose.
I was feeling very lost when I got that.
But I put it on, and I moved forward.
And you know when I was wearing it? The day you were born.
The moment you came out, my Number One.
And when I held you, for the first time, right here in this hospital, it hit me like a bolt of lightning.
- You were my purpose, Kevin.
- (KEVIN CRYING) And I swear to you, son, I swear to you, you will find yours.
- Okay? - (KEVIN SNIFFLES) Okay.

- Screw you.
- Just hold on.
That necklace, it's the only thing I have left in my life from my dad.
(CRYING): It's the only thing I have, and I know it's up there.
It's a it's-it's a wh it's a wheel pendant on a little chain.
It's on your bedroom floor.
