Oh, my God!
TAMl: No. Uh-uh.

TAMl: You best take that off
before your father gets home.

Why are you dressed like that?

This is what everybody
in Brazil's wearing.

We're not in Brazil, are we?

That's your ex-girlfriend.

You're kicked off the team.
I'm sorry about that.

You wanted to play football?

Who doesn't want
to be a Panther?

You want to come by tomorrow?
Come out to practice with us?

Yes, sir.

The coroner found upholstery
fibers from GMC wagons.

Just like this one.

I didn't mean to do it, Dad.

Dear God, forgive us for this.

The recruiting circus
has come to town, folks!

Today's the first day
that college recruiters

are officially allowed to talk to
the individual football players.

And the question
on everyone's minds is,

who will our very own
Smash Williams talk to first?

Hello? No, you cannot.
He's sleeping.

No, I will not. Goodbye.

Lord, have mercy.

Georgia Tech is on the phone.

Take a message.

I am not your personal
assistant, Brian.

Well, that's good 'cause
you're not getting paid.

Take this phone.
Mama getting irritated.

Hey. Look. The Smash train
is pulling out of the station.

You better hang on before
you lose your seat.

Hello?

TAMl: Jules?
Honey, I made pancakes.

Want to come out
for breakfast?

I'm not hungry.

Well, we're gonna leave
in about 20 minutes, okay?

She still upset over Matt?

I think so.

Don't look!

Where are your manners?

Sorry.

I'll give you one
if you give me one.

I'm not giving anything up.

You... What?

Uh-uh. No.

So, you want me
to make some dinner?

I can make
some beef stroganoff.

If you want to. I mean, you've done
enough around here. The place looks great.

I'm blown away. I don't think
it's ever been this clean.

I know.

Hey.
Hey.

Hi.
Hi.

You okay?

I'm fine.

You just gonna stand
there or...

No.

No.

What?
Tim.

Tim.

What?
Are you packing?

Hey, hey, hey, you don't
have to leave.

I'll leave.
No, no. It's fine.

Don't be an idiot, okay?
Come on, look. This is stupid.

Where the hell you gonna go?

Tim.
You guys have your fun.

Tim, I am talking to you
right now. Tim!

Listen. Are you thinking
about this? What do you want?

I can leave.

You don't...
This is your house.

I know it is.

How's it going?

What's all this
you got going on here?

It's my clothes.

That's nice.
Why are they right here?

I kind of need
a place to stay.

Please?

Forty-eight hours, Tim. That's
all you got. Forty-eight.

I'll take it. Thank you.

And don't even dream about
coming anywhere near my room.

Wouldn't even dream
of it, Tyra.

Shut up. Shut up.
Wouldn't even dream of it.

Mrs. Taylor? Excuse me.

Yeah?
Hi.

Hi.
I was told to see you about

getting a set of keys
for the activity lounge

for a staff meeting
of the Dillon Chronicle.

Oh, sweetheart, you need to talk
to your faculty advisor about that.

That would be me, ma'am.
Sorry, sweetie.

Did you just call me ma'am?

I did. Sorry. Noah...
Noah Barnett.

English Lit,
Creative Writing and Speech,

and faculty advisor
for the paper.

You're the...
Oh, good Lord!

How old are you, 12?
Don't answer that.

Oh, my Lord. A lot's... A lot's
happened since I've been gone.

I was gone having a baby.

No, I don't even need to hit
the ball off the tee anymore.

I've graduated.
My dad pitches to me now.

In T-ball...
I don't... I'm not...

...when you're little,
you hit the...

I...
Hit the ball off a tee.

We're a football
family, so...

You know what? Those keys
will be in my office,

so if you come to my
office, it'd be great.

Okay. I'll come by later.
Whenever. Thank you.

Bye-bye. Nice to meet you You, too.

Noah.

Listen up.

Stop what you're doing. I
want to talk to you a second.

A number of y'all today are gonna get
an opportunity to meet some recruiters.

These recruiters...

Want to try to get you
to commit to this, that,

or any other school
anyway they can.

They don't care how.

The Texas High School Athletic
Administration? They do care.

I'm talking about losing
state eligibility

if someone gets caught
accepting anything.

Cell phones, concert tickets,

meals, rides home.

With that said, any of y'all want to
meet with any particular recruiters,

you talk to me
or the other coaches,

we work it through my office.

Anything you need,
you will get.

Now, let's go have a good practice
and get out of here early today.

Let's go! Let's go!

How you doing? We'll talk to you later.

Hey, good to meet you. Smash Williams!

How you doing, man?

Hey. Pete Kenderton. Miami South.

Look. I don't know about Florida, man.
I mean, y'all get hurricanes every year.

Hey, Pete.
Hey, Noelle.

How are you?
Good to see you.

Good. How are you? Nice
to see you, too. Yeah.

How's Owen's
turf toe doing?

He's gonna... He said
he's gonna play through it.

Man, that guy is tough.
Did you know Owen Davenport?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, he graduated
my sophomore year.

That's right. Well, he's been
starting for us the last couple years.

The guy's fantastic. Man.

I'm sorry. Do you guys
know each other?

Look, I've seen you around.
Yeah. Okay.

Well, listen.
I gotta get out of here.

It's good to see you again.
I'll be here a couple days.

Okay. Thank you. Give me a shout, all right?

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
Take care, man.

Good seeing you
again, Noelle.

Bye.

Hey, I didn't know Owen
Davenport had a little sister.

He does.

Well, I mean, we should
hang out sometime.

Yeah. Definitely.

Okay.
All right.

I'll see you
in a little bit.

Okay, see you.

Hit.

Yeah!

You really gonna
do this thing?

I don't know.
What do you think?

Hey, Santiago. Come here.
Listen up.

Here's what I want you to do. I want
you to go to the guidance counselor.

Mrs. Taylor.

And I want you to tell her
I sent you.

And I want her to check
your credits.

And to see that you're squared
away academically.

You understand
what I'm saying?

Yes, sir.

And be nice to her.
She's my wife.

Yes, Coach.
Go do that.

And we just stood there
and watched

as my car turned into, like,
a giant charcoal briquette.

Well, then what happened?

And then we just went home.

Well, that's...
That's good, right?

My dad destroyed evidence.

He's a cop. He can't do that.

Now, I've got him
into this thing and...

Landry, I don't know what
you want me to say.

I just wanted to tell you 'cause
I don't really have anyone else

I can talk to about this.

Yeah, I know.

You been doing okay, though?

Yeah, I mean, about as good
as I can be, I guess.

Oh, hey! Hi, y'all. Can I talk to
you? I'm sorry to interrupt you.

Can I talk to you
for a quick second?

Sure.

Sorry. I'm rushing around
this morning.

TAMl: Nice to see you. Sorry
to interrupt you. That's okay.

That's all right.
Good to see you, Landry.

Honey, I need to ask you
a favor. I need a go-getter.

And I... You are...
Hey, Lyla! Come here.

Come here.
Perfect!

I need two go-getters.
Here's the situation.

They're all on me about
this whole Pantherama thing.

Last year, I scheduled both the
entertainment and the silent auction.

This year, that is
a burden that I cannot bear.

So what I thought
would be great

is to actually pass on the
entertainment part of Pantherama

to a couple of students.

What do you think?

Yeah. You know, I actually...
I've been studying

really, and I've just been...
Yeah, I would love to,

...working hard on my
studies... but I... And I've got

the Christ Teen Messengers
thing and...

Oh, honey. You are not using
Jesus Christ our Lord

as an excuse not to help out
your counselor, are you?

No, ma'am.
That's nice. Thank you.

And Tyra, you're too busy
studying to help me out?

Yeah? Oh, really? Great!
Oh, I appreciate it.

You know what? Y'all are
gonna do a super job.

I'm not kidding.
I mean, I'm excited.

All right, girls. Thank y'all so
much. Appreciate it. Have a great day.

Okay. Okay. So Tracy will do the movie
review. Two hundred and fifty words.

But, what we really need are... Okay.

...feature stories, okay?
So what do you got?

Anybody got any ideas?

People, this is your paper, not mine.
What stories do you think need telling?

Well, The Knife has never played
anywhere in the state of Texas.

Good. That's...
That's interesting

if it's true, although I don't
think it merits 1,000 words.

Anyone else? Julie?

What about Pantherama?

Of course you're pitching
a football idea.

I'm not pitching a football
idea, okay?

Pantherama is an event that's held
every year by Dillon High, right?

And it generates
a lot of money.

But where does the money go? Who
decides how to distribute the money?

Do all the sports get the same
level of funding?

I don't...
I don't think so.

That's exactly the kind of thinking
that I'm looking for, Julie.

Excellent. Excellent.

You just talked yourself
into a feature assignment.

Well done.

Your grades look
pretty good actually.

Considering you transferred
five times?

Well, my uncle's work makes
him move around a lot.

What about your parents?

They were...
They were deported.

I'm sorry.

But I was born here.

So did they leave you, then,
in the care of your uncle?

Is he your legal guardian?

Mmm-hmm.

Well, I'm not quite clear
then why you put

Garrity Motors as your
address here.

I just thought it would
be easier, you know?

Easier for what?

Well, you never know when my uncle's work
is gonna have to make him move again, so...

Well, I am gonna need to have
your real address,

and I need to have a meeting
with your uncle

just so we can sort
of sit down and talk about

what would what would happen
in the coming year.

Yeah, no, he pulls
double shifts all the time,

and it's really hard
to pull him away, so I...

But I can have him sign whatever
if you give me something.

I can have him sign it.

Well, you know what? It's
gotta be one of those things.

It's gotta be
face-to-face.

Go to your house

after school one day,
wherever is convenient for him.

It's not gonna work.

How come, Santiago?

It's just... It's just
not gonna work.

Hey, listen.

Is there something
you'd like to tell me?

My uncle hasn't been
home in a while.

How long's awhile?

Ten or 11 months.

It's no... It's no big deal.
It's just this car.

This guy's selling a car,
and I was thinking about maybe

going to look at it. But it's
probably too much money anyway,

so...

Well, Matthew Saracen,

this is your lucky day.

Because I happen to be
an exceptional negotiator.

Oh, is that right?
Mmm-hmm.

What? You used to work with
Buddy... Buddy Garrity,

or something like that?
No.

I actually know cars.

I bet I can even
get you a discount.

Oh, yeah?
Mmm-hmm.

Oh.

Hey.

I just... I need to keep
the door closed.

Why is that?

Because my ex-boyfriend and his
new girlfriend are out there.

And they're pretty
into PDA.

So I just... I thought it
would be less awkward, you know?

If I just avoided them, and they
didn't have to really deal with it.

And I'm sure
they'll be gone in a sec,

so I'll be out of your hair.

It's classic, isn't it?

He's the QB One, right?

And she's the cheerleader.

She's like this perfect doll.

And I'm just, like,
some interlude.

And she's the real deal.

I guess, I just...

I guess, I just came in
to cry.

You hungry?

I always eat
when I get dumped.

That's classic.

That is pretty classic.

It's, like, a veggie deluxe.

Guess it couldn't
hurt, right?

Thanks.
You're welcome.

Honey, I can't believe we're
even talking about eligibility.

What is important right now
is the fact

That this is a boy who
is an orphan.

That's what you should be
thinking about.

I got a great idea!
You know what?

He joins my team.
He's on my field.

He's got a family.

No. No. We get him a family,

then we can talk about him
being on your team.

Period. End of discussion.

That's just the way
it's gonna have to work.

So, there's this girl dancing to
Devil Went Down to Georgia. She's new.

And I walk up to her, and I'm all, "Bitch,
that's my signature song! Step off. "

I'll kick her ass. I dance... Yeah.

...in boots and chaps
and a thong.

What the hell is she thinking?

I don't know. But that's
a good costume though,

I'll tell you that much.
All I'm saying.

Wow. Nice. Beer?
Yeah.

Hi, y'all.

Tyra.
Hi, lady.

Tim, could I talk to you
for a second?

Yeah.

Don't you dare
screw my sister.

What are you talking about?
I swear to God, Tim.

I know you like to create
havoc wherever you go.

I'm serious as cancer.
Do not screw Mindy.

That's my line.
Don't cross it.

All right. How's Landry doing?

You're on hour 36
of the 48, okay?

Tick tock.

Find a place, Tim!

Let me ask you, Brian.

Have you given any
consideration to attending

a historically black college?

I'm mostly thinking
about my game.

You know what I'm saying?

Can I get you some more
coffee, Mr. Gordon?

Oh, no. I'm fine. Thank you.

Let me cut right
to the chase, Brian.

Okay.
Whitmore University doesn't

offer athletic scholarships.

But we do offer academic ones.

Now, should you decide
to enroll at Whitmore,

we'd love to have you play
football for us.

But regardless,

you'll get a four-year education from
one of the top schools in the country.

Guaranteed.

Also I can be on a team that
was two and nine last season?

Say, Brian!
Okay, look. Tell me this.

How many of your players
were drafted last year?

I think you know
the answer to that.

Yeah. None.

Look, I know you'll
get other offers.

Yeah.
You right about that.

I do understand the allure
of a big football university.

I just hope you'll give our
college real consideration.

The next four years
can change your life.

Look, Mr. Gordon,
college isn't the goal.

It's the means to an end.

I plan on going pro
sooner and not later.

I don't want to waste
your time or mine.

Called about
the Dart here?

Yeah. Yeah, we did.

Wow.

Two seventy-five horsepower?

Yeah.

It's not a Slant Six, is it?

No. Smart girl. Pretty girl.
Knows her cars.

So, what do you think?
What are you feeling?

Well, I don't know. I mean,
it's... What do you think?

You're the car...
Yeah. I think it's great.

This? Do you think?
You like it? Yeah.

Yeah, absolutely. I love it.
Yeah?

You do? Seriously,
you love this?

You can get a really
good deal on this. Trust me.

Okay.

So you realize you're selling to QB
One of the Dillon Panthers, right?

Well, I'll take 200
off the price.

TAMl: Everything that you
donated will be on that

silent auction table at
Pantherama.

Great. Thank you so much.
Okay. Bye-bye.

Hey. Listen.

Hello, gentlemen.
Hi, Tami.

Hi, baby.
How are you?

I'm good. I'm good. To what do
I owe this pleasant surprise?

Buddy and I have been talking
about this Santiago situation.

Mmm.

Look, Santiago has been
working for me part-time.

Did you know that?

He's a great worker.
I did.

And when Eric told me about his
living situation, I was appalled.

And so, I came up
with this moment

of scintillating clarity.

Oh.
He should move in with me.

Easy. Simple.

Can I talk to my husband
for just one quick sec?

Absolutely. Absolutely.
Just one quick sec.

You bet. Okay.
Okay.

Okay. Okay. I'll see you in a... Thank you.

Thanks.

Look, I didn't...

Why would you go and...
Don't whisper-yell at me.

Don't whisper-yell at me,
please. Go and talk to him

and bring him into my office?

And you're suggesting that
Santiago, that poor child,

is gonna go live with
Buddy Garrity?

Honey, we're not selling
puppies here.

I know we're not selling
puppies, honey.

He's got to go through social
services. That's the protocol.

It's not an ideal situation. You
know what? As far as I'm concerned,

the protocol didn't work.
But that's the situation.

The protocol doesn't work,
does it?

He didn't get the assistance
he needed.

He fell through the cracks. What
does that say about protocol?

This is not an alternative,
and I know what you're doing.

This is just convenient
for you,

so that you can have
your football season.

Don't tell me I'm doing
all this for the kid

just to get him
on the damn team.

What I'm saying is, yeah, he
won't be living in a trailer alone.

What I'm saying is,
yeah, he'll have family.

What I'm saying is, yeah,
we can keep an eye on him.

That's all I'm saying.

This is ridiculous.

How are we supposed to
figure out the entertainment

if we don't have
a single name?

Oh, come on, man!

We're gonna get our names.
Hey!

Follow me.

Better not mess
around, man.

That's the men's...
I know.

Hello!

I know!

Listen up.
Step right up.

Quiet down.

Look at this.

Lyla, why are we here?

Because nobody signed
up for Pantherama.

Aww...

Nobody signed up
for the Pantherama.

I know. I know.

Hey, am I right to think
that, uh,

tradition dictates that the
players provide entertainment

for Pantherama?

Is that right?
That's right.

All right, listen up, ladies.

Lyla and I, we have a job
to do, okay?

So just make this easy
on everybody.

You, freshman,
pass this around.

Come on,
get on it!

I'm gonna be spending
a lot of time with, um...

What's your name?

Carter.

Carter.

Yeah, Lyla and I,

we're gonna be spending
the whole week...

...with Carter.

Anybody else?

Well done.

This is good,
and it's also too long.

I didn't say we're
not gonna run it.

I just think you need to cut
it down by 500 words.

Well, that's half
the article.

Well, find the right half.

Well, I thought you said the
story's supposed to show range.

Right.

"On a blustery Tuesday afternoon,
one can find half a dozen

"multiloquous rally girls,
selling raffle tickets.

"And to what end? Pantherama. "

"Multiloquous"?

It just means talkative.

Right.

Don't use a $10 word
when a nickel one will do.

And I think
three angry paragraphs

about rally girls
is kind of off point.

But I thought you said
it was good?

It is. It is. It's good.

But good is
the enemy of great.

You know, the less a reporter
says, the more she hears.

So what? You... Did you work
at a newspaper, too?

I did.

You're just trying
to prove a point.

I am. Columbia School
of Journalism,

and then a year
at the city desk

of the Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel.

Wow.

It's a good article.

Cut it down.
Make it great.

Okay.

So when Owen was being
recruited, it was crazy.

I was his slave.

Are you stuck taking messages
for Smash all the time?

No.

Well, Owen totally played the
recruiters against each other.

He would listen
to what UCC said,

and then he'd go back
to Miami Southern and say...

"Well, what are you gonna
do for me?"

Mmm.

And then he ended
up with a Porsche.

For real?
So, um...

Your brother likes Miami
Southern?

Oh, yeah. He's like
the king of that place.

Well, are your parents happy
with his education?

Yeah. I guess. Sure.

You know, but my dad says
that the connection Owen

makes on the team will serve him
better than a masters in business.

Well, I know your mother must be
concerned about him getting hurt.

You know there are
no guarantees in football.

Yeah. Well, guys
like Smash are blessed.

That's as close as you get
to a guarantee.

Amen. You got that right.

He's here.
Okay.

Oh, my Lord, Matthew!

Is this it?
This, this is it!

It's old. Oh, my...
It's a classic.

That's what the owner told you?

Let's just check out
the engine.

You know what? That is not bad
for this age of a car.

No, and these engines,
they run forever.

Yeah. Clearly.

Well, you know what?
I want to go on a ride.

Y'all move back.

Will you take us?

Yeah, you wanna go for a ride?
Yes, I wanna go for a ride.

Okay. Sure.
Uh...

Grandma wants to go for a
ride. Let's all get in the car.

Go for a ride.
Okay. Okay.

Oh, it's nice.

You know how to drive?

Yeah, I'm a good driver.

I'll be the judge of that.

Okay. You good?
Okay.

I'm ready.
Okay. Here we go.

I know what
you're going to say.

I should have told you ahead of time
that I invited a friend for dinner.

See, that wasn't even
what I was going to say.

I was wondering if, uh,

you had taken any thought to what
Mr. Gordon said about Whitmore.

Mom,

I mean, were you listening
to anything Noelle was saying?

Her brother worked it.

I ain't going to no tired
school when I got recruiters

from Florida, Texas
and California on the line.

What does that mean,
"working it"?

I'm going to look
for the best situation.

What has gotten
into you, Brian?

You were rude
to Mr. Gordon.

Mmm-hmm. That man offered
you a full scholarship.

Oh, and then you waltz in here
with this white girl

and act like she a prophet
or something. Wait, wait,

is that what this is about?

No, you tell me what
it's about!

'Cause it's not even
like that.

I want to know if...

Hey! What you... Is this
what you think it's about?

Is that why you play football?

You have no idea
how any of this works!

Noelle's seen the whole
thing before. You haven't.

You just want me to nod,
and smile, and say,

"Yes, Mr. Gordon,"
like a good boy.

That guy can't get me
what I want.

I want you to use your brain
and think!

And what if you end up like
Jason Street?

Oh, he had the whole world.

He had everything
until he got hurt.

That's not ever gonna
happen to me.

You see, that's what
I'm saying.

I'm going to go all the way.

All the way. And all you can
think about is how I might fail?

How I might not make it?

No, no, I won't let you.

Nobody's holding me back.
Not you, not anybody!

What part of "get into a straight
line" don't y'all understand?

Hey!

Come on, guys!
Let's go! Come on!

Let's go. Let's go. Come on.
Get up. Get up.

You guys volunteered,
right? Come on, everybody...

Let's just get in
a couple straight lines.

Let's try and figure
this thing out.

It's gonna be really simple,
okay? It's just a walk.

Just do what I do.

Five, six, seven,
eight, DHS...

It's supposed to be funny.

All right, all right,
all right! Go take a break.

Take a five-minute break.
We're not done.

Just take a break.
No way.

Any bright ideas? Because
I don't think that, um,

the cheering thing
is gonna work.

No.

Figure something
else out, because I don't...

Hey! Hey, you! Hey.

Put your shirt back on!

Ouch! Ouch!

Oh, you got
called out, dude.

All right. Take it off again.

Take it off.

Now, see that?
That is entertainment.

What? Put a little music to some moves.

Now, you can
choreograph, right?

You can choreograph!
Come on, guys.

That's how I was hoping to do it.
Let's make it fun. You know? Mmm-hmm.

Okay. See that? That is what
I'm talking about.

All right, guys!
I get it. I get it. I get it.

Come on. Let's get
into a straight line.

Okay. So that's pathetic.
I mean, how much vomit?

Don't laugh when somebody
confesses something embarrassing.

Hey.
Hey, y'all.

Hey, Mom.
Hi.

Oh, right on. Keys.

I brought Mr. Barnett his keys. By the way,

that whole story's
off the record.

Incidentally, your daughter has
the feature in the Dillon Chronicle

tomorrow.

How about that? Yay!
Good for you, sweetie.

Thank you. Thank you.

That's great.

Um, I'll see you
later, Mr. B?

Okay. Adios.

Everything okay in here?

Yeah. Everything's good.

Good.
Thanks for the keys.

Appreciate it.
Mmm-hmm.

Let me know
if you need anything.

Okay.
Okay.

Thanks. Bye.

Julie.

Under, over.

Side to side thing.

This side.

This side.

Nice moves.

No. It's not...
I'm not... Shut up.

Woo!

Shut up. It's just this thing that
I gotta do tomorrow for Pantherama.

What's that? It's that thing that you gotta

take my grandma to
tomorrow night.

And Lyla and Tyra made up
this stupid dance.

And for some reason they think that
I need to be up in the front row.

Mmm. And then, I think we
even gotta take our shirts off.

Oh, like The Full Monty?

No. Not like The Full Monty,

but pretty bad and I...
I'm not even gonna do it.

I'm just gonna tell them
I'm sick and...

Why?
... I have to stay home,

and take care of my grandma.

No!

Yeah.
No.

If you... If you're going to dance in
front of people, you have to own it.

No, it's stupid. Everyone's
just going to laugh.

So? Okay,
show me the dance.

No. I'll help. I love dancing.

Come on.
Whatever. Fine. Here. Watch.

It's like this. It's
like... It's like, "Oh. Uh. "

Okay. Okay, that's good,
but loosen up.

No...

Okay. Okay. Okay. It's loose. It's loose.

'Cause if you don't move your
shoulders, you look like a robot.

But you have to
move your hips.

But I thought... What
about the shoulders? Okay.

This is how you do it.
You march.

Uh-huh. And then hips just
side to side. Do this.

Put your hands
on my hips. Go.

Okay.

Mmm-hmm.

Like this. Side to side.

Okay.

Yeah. All right.

See? You feel it.

Yeah. I feel it.
It's good. It's fine.

I mean, yeah.
Okay.

So, do it again.

That's good!

It's not!
Look at those hips!

It's not good.

It's good.

All God's children
got a world, my Lord

Evening.

Oh...

Mmm.

Mmm-hmm.

I got you all wet.

It's okay.

I'm officially telling
Whitmore, "No. "

What?

I'm going pro, Mama.

I won't need to finish
four years, 'cause

when I turn 21, I'll be signing with the NFL.

I'm going pro, and I'm
gonna need to be around

people who believe that.

I'm thinking big picture
for this family.

So I'll be going to my future
recruiting meetings alone.

I'm not mad. I just...

I'm gonna do what
I need to do.

Is this because of that girl?

No.

I told you,
it's not like that.

This is me.

I have been thinking about
this Santiago situation.

And I did a little research
into him.

Well, into his background and
kid has been in juvie twice.

And he's had
some violent episodes.

Now, what concerns me

about putting a boy like that back
into the foster care system is that,

you know, there's just a great
risk there, you know?

Especially if he gets into one
of those group homes or...

I understand.

I mean, I know
that you're looking at him

like he's a great
football player,

but I want to make something
clear to you.

This is a boy
who needs a home.

And this is a boy
who's at risk.

I know, Tami. I mean,
I've got three kids.

Well, I know...
I know what it takes.

I know. I know you
have three kids.

But this is not a kid
like your three kids.

This is a whole
different situation.

It's true, isn't it?

Even though I'm a little bit
nervous about it, you know,

I know I can do this.

And I really like the kid.

I think he's got
a great heart,

and I want him
to have a chance.

I do, too.

Oh! Morning, sunshine.

Can't believe you just
did that.

Oh, yeah. This coming from the
guy who shows up on my porch

expecting a sleepover?

Seriously, Tim.
I want you gone.

Do you want
some breakfast, Tim?

Yeah. Sure. Sounds great.
Shut up!

Eggs?
No, he's leaving.

He's leaving.

I can't deal with
you here, Tim.

I want you gone.

I'm serious. I don't have
anywhere to go, Tyra.

Oh, right, because
your brother is, what?

Sleeping with that
girl you used to,

you know, screw around with?
That old lady.

Morning, Timmy.

Morning, Minds.

I know this guy that's always looking
for people to help him with his pets.

You can stay there.
I'll give you his number.

See? There you go.

As good as that sounds,
I may have to check that out.

Today, Tim.

Hey, sweetheart.
How's your day going?

Fine till I read this.
You read this?

"'Pantherama: Where Does the
Money Go? ' by Julie Taylor. "

I know. She's been
working really hard on that

with that Mr. Barnett.
Have you met him yet?

That new teacher?
"Athletic Director

"and Panther Football Coach,
Eric Taylor, had no comment. "

She asked me through
the bathroom door.

What am I supposed to do?
I was busy.

Sweetheart. She does make some
good points in there.

Bye, honey.

Miss Williams?

Coach Taylor.

How are you?
I'm all right.

Have a seat.

I need to know what y'all gonna
do about this recruitment insanity?

My phone is ringing
off the hook day and night.

My kid is acting like
he needs a Hollywood agent.

Now, you told the parents

you were gonna keep
an eye on this.

First of all, it gets pretty heated
up around here this time of year.

Now, wait a second.

These recruiters are pretty aggressive,
but I got to tell you something.

When they see your boy,
they see a prize right there.

I mean, he's got the talent.

All I can hear about is how
fast he can go pro.

Not one word about
his education! Not one!

I can give recommendations.

I can give advice.

But in the long run,

that's a decision
that Brian's gonna be making

or Brian and yourself might...
My dead husband

was a trifling man.

I couldn't count on him
to bring his check home.

I couldn't count on him
to be faithful.

But he was always there
for Brian.

They could talk.

Now, I'm not asking you
to be this boy's daddy.

I'm just here to remind you
he doesn't have one.

I hear there's
gonna be a great show tonight.

Ooh, good.

Carlotta helped with it.

Yes.
She did?

Yeah, she's quite...
Oh, yeah.

...a choreographer.

What kind of show, Matthew?

Kind of a variety show,
I guess.

Good.
Yeah.

Let's go. Let's go.

Do you realize that Pantherama
is the first social event

that Gracie's ever been
to in her entire life?

You really should start saving
up for therapy right now.

Pantherama is tradition and
tradition is good, sweetheart.

Maybe you could use some
of that positive tradition

in the work that you're doing
with your articles.

Noah says you can't have
preconceptions about an article.

I don't care what Noah says.

Honey, does everybody
call him Noah?

Mom, that's his name.

I would think it would be
Mr. Barnett.

As far as me and impinging on
your freedom of the press?

How about you come out
with a little more balance?

A little bit more fairness?
What do you think about that?

Welcome, everybody,
to Pantherama!

I want to thank everybody for coming
out and supporting your Dillon Panthers!

Is everybody having
a good time?

Yeah!

All right, you guys,
listen up.

I'll be here on the side,
so if you guys get out of line

or you need me,
I'll be right here.

Don't screw up.
No. Yeah, let's do it!

You guys are gonna be great.
You ready?

All right.
Ladies and gentlemen,

a big round of applause
for your Dillon Panthers!

Yeah!

Good job, boys!

Did you like that?

Well, I always
said you had great feet.

You know how to move.

Thank you, Grandma.

And you got that from me.

I did.

I told Coach that I'd stay
and help him clean up.

Well, that's nice.

So I'll be back in
a little bit, all right?

All right.
Oh, here's the keys.

Okay. I'll take it from here.

Okay.
You looked good out there.

Because of you.

I'll see you at the house.

Bye. Good night.

You know, I think we can
finish those bulbs today.

Okay.
Wouldn't that be great?

And next spring,
they would be so beautiful.

Good morning, honey.
Morning.

Everything looks so good.

This is a good breakfast.

I was thinking about some iris 'cause
we've got day lilies back there.

Do y'all know... Well, y'all probably
don't know but they look kind of alike.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

And we need
some bone meal.

Matthew, can you help me
remember that, bone meal?

But we might need some
more bulbs.

I don't think I've got
that many.

Plus, the lady next door said she'd give
me some of hers. You can thin them out.

And that's really
a pretty good way to do it.

Just transplant them, you know? Mmm-hmm.

Which might be better than bulbs,
really when you get down to it.

'Cause you've already
got them started.

We're not talking about
a studio apartment here.

I'm talking three bedrooms.

Two baths, spa...
Hey, Pete, how you doing?

Oh, hey, Coach.
How you doing?

I'm doing just fine.

Good to see you.
Good to see you, too.

Just thought I'd come over,
make sure you weren't picking up

any of Brian's tab. Of course, that'd
be against Athletic Admin rules,

wouldn't it?

Yes, it would.

But we don't break the rules
at Miami Southern.

I mean, even if you were gonna...
Even if you were gonna buy one of his

tall tales that he's prone
to tell, that could

pretty much screw up
my season for the year.

It'd be a damn shame for you,
wouldn't it? Yeah, it sure would, Pete.

All right. Well, listen,
Smash. Thanks for the time.

Yeah.
Let's do this again.

Okay. You've got my card?
Coach, always a pleasure.

Mmm-hmm.

What the hell
are you doing?

Okay. Fine.

I didn't set up this meeting
through your office.

I set it up myself.

Nobody wants
all that red tape, Coach.

And I don't need you to hold
my hand. I'm grown.

I'm looking at all my options. I'm trying
to make the best decision for my future.

You got heart, charisma
and a lot of skill.

You're probably one of the best
athletes I have ever coached.

Thank you.

My old man gave me a hard time
every damn decision

I ever made.

Every single day I lived under
the roof with that man,

we went head-to-head.

I'm here. I just wanted
to remind you of that.

You got money?

Yeah.

Good. You buy your own meal.

Thanks now.
Sure thing, Coach.

Who the hell are you?
Uh, my name's Tim Riggins.

What do you want?

Mindy Collette called you
and said I was coming by.

Oh, yeah, you're
that football guy, huh?

Sort of. Yeah.

So, you need a place to crash?

So long you help out, help take care
of Roscoe and Coltrane, you're welcome.

Who's that?

My ferrets.
Ferrets better than cats.

Okay.

Come on in.
I'll introduce you.

Let's go, football boy.

Hey.

Hi.

So, I was wondering
about my next assignment.

A glutton for punishment.

When you worked at the paper, I mean, how
did you keep coming up with good ideas?

How do you know
they were good ideas?

I, uh... I subscribe
to The New York Times.

I read it every day,
cover to cover.

You should start by doing
that, you know.

We can, uh...
We can share this one.

Okay.

You'll start to get

a sense of what
makes a good story.

Um, well, thank you.

Good. Glad I could help.

I'll see you tomorrow.

This is good.

TAMl: Mmm-hmm.

This'll be masculine-looking.

Great. Hey, babe.
Yeah.

You wanna take these, and
maybe you and Santiago can

start making up the bed
in there

and setting up your room
and all that.

Come on.
TAMl: Buddy.

Yeah.
Come here. Come here.

Listen. I want to see what you
got in the refrigerator. Yeah.

Yeah. I need to see what
you've got prepared. All right?

Okay. I got it.

Well...
I got everything we need.

You've got a lot of steak.

Yeah.
And you got a lot of sausage.

Get some vegetables in here.

Okay. All right.
Okay? All right.

You're a guardian now.
You get me?

You gotta be home when
he's home. He's a kid.

Okay.
All right?

All right.

Why don't you go on in,
and make him feel...

Make him feel comfortable. Make
him feel at home. Okay. All right.

This is the last time I'm
ever gonna be making your bed.

TAMl: How'd it go?
Good?

Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Good. Yeah.

So, this is it.
It's not very roomy, but...

And this was Buddy Jr. 's
desk. It's a little small.

I'll try and get you
a bigger desk.

But anyway, you can work
there for now.

Think I'm doing
the right thing?

Mmm-hmm.

Doing the right thing.

You've got your bathroom,
and this is your bed.

Two beds.

Yeah, I wish it was roomier,
Santiago, but I...

When I moved in, I really,
to tell you the truth,

didn't think I was gonna
be here that long.

So... But...

This is the, uh,

first real bed I ever had.

Oh.

Well, good.

Good then.

Make yourself at home.
