That's impossible.

Don't ever use that word in my presence.

Another girl came for it.

If we go to the police together, maybe they'll get off their asses and arrest

him. Right about now, you might want to make travel plans.

I told you everything that Danny and his goons did to me.

And you joined that band anyway?

It's not a bad thing to do something you love to do, despite how you feel.

Why? Right now, you need a lawyer.

Chantelle wouldn't want you getting down like that, bro.

Mess up what you got here?

I just can't get enough.

I'll even catch the bus.

Hope I ain't doing too much.

I want you.

Both standing all around.

But if you stand out in a crowd.

Now that's presidential.

I'm definitely making a donation.

You're back.

I am.

And you're here.

Why?

Just... Just to return this.

You didn't know you were getting out so soon. I discharged myself. I can't be

laying around a hospital bed with homecoming around the corner.

Giving up?

Oh, no, no, no. No, never. I am just ready for bigger challenges, sir.

I mastered this one. Good.

The great mold themselves in the fire of their will.

Yes, we do, sir.

Yes, they do, sir.

I do.

I was there.

At the hospital.

You were pretty... Sir David.

Yes? The great are also conscious of the gifted.

I knew you were there.

Good to know, sir.

Thank you.

Not only did you all pass the midterm, but two of you solved the extra credit

problem. Mr. Hobbs, Ms. Platt, go ahead and stand. Take a bath.

All right.

You all are dismissed.

Hey, Cedric.

Hi, I'm Bronwyn.

Good job on the test. Oh, thank you, too.

I was wondering, I tutor math at Andrew Young Elementary.

You think you might be interested in something like that?

Nah, that's not really my thing.

No offense.

None taken.

But look, you just look as far from a math geek as anybody can get, and the at

-risk kids might respond to you, you know?

You saying I look at -risk?

No, no, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying... It's supposed to be a joke.

Nah, but on the real, I don't know nothing about teaching. No, but look,

just got an A on a crazy hard exam. That's all you need to know.

Look, I really got to get to class. Just think about it, okay?

Hey. Hey.

Hello, Trina.

You ready, Sydney?

I am.

Good.

That's it.

You sure about this?

No. I'm not.

I'm scared as shit.

Which is why I don't need any more doubt talk. Look, it is not doubt talk.

It's worry.

But I get it. You don't need any more of that, so... Let's go.

Yo, this isn't just our homecoming. It's an opportunity to let everybody know

that luck ain't got nothing to do with our wins.

Get your minds right.

Focus. On three, no distractions, y 'all. Let's go.

No distractions, huh?

Does that include you?

It includes me, man.

Now join the team.

Come on, man. You ain't here what? Get off this damn jock.

We putting up W's and we still getting dragged.

Why? Guys, let's just focus on the homecoming game.

I'm with Junior on this one.

We need to focus.

Keep our ducks in a row.

Look at that real country ass.

Ain't nobody got no ducks. Exactly what's wrong with you, man.

What about us? Ficking together.

That's why as a team captain, I call this meeting. Remind us, we got this, y

'all. You're a team captain to act like it. Because you ain't say nothing to us

about what these chicks accuse you of. Yo, I'm with you on that one. We should

have heard something straight from you a long time ago.

That's what I thought, boy.

You must be guilty.

What you saying?

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey,

hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

Yeah, what's going on here, huh?

Ask Captain Secret Lover.

Look, don't get intimidated just because it's a word problem.

Math is just, um, like translating a language.

Some people, they might speak Spanish, and then you have other people that

speak English, but anybody can speak math.

You guys understand?

Hey, um, y 'all listen up.

It's like graffiti or text chat.

You gotta know, uh, the signs and the symbols.

Once you understand that, I mean, then you can write it out.

Manipulate it, make it say what you want it to say.

Like, if I want it to say, um, it's Deontay, right? Yeah. If I want it to

Deontay is dope forever.

I say D equals all, which means is, and infinity symbol is here, which means

forever.

Y 'all get that?

Yeah.

Give it back.

Shut up.

Wait, wait, wait.

What's going on? What's the deal?

He took my money.

Is that true, LaMichael?

No.

Come on, just give it back to him in the squash.

I told you, I ain't got his money. So why do you think you do?

Look, just... Empty your pockets, little Michael.

Please.

You heard her. Come on. Empty your pockets, shorty.

I'm empty as shit. Ain't nobody playing with you. Hey, get off. Get your hands

off. Get your hands off. Get your hands off.

You need me to get off of him.

You guys go sit down right now.

Go. Right now.

Asshole. Sit down.

What is wrong with you? What's wrong with me? You can't put your hands on a

Seth. That is against the law. Against the law to steal, too?

I told you I don't know nothing about this teaching stuff. But you know a

something about common sense, right?

You need to ask yourself the same damn question, man.

Yeah, that's true.

Junior hit the lottery.

Taisha's really pretty.

They're just friends.

Oh.

You think she's pretty?

I don't know.

I think you do.

Good afternoon, everyone.

And welcome to our annual homecoming banquet.

Congratulations on being bowl eligible for the first time this decade.

We will now say grace.

Coach Hardwick.

My pleasure.

Let us bow our heads.

Coach,

may I say a few words?

Sure.

Damn, you changed my life.

Football.

Squad.

Y 'all everything.

With this team by my side, I'm going to continue to make you proud.

Thank you, Cole.

Thank you for those words, T, and the great season so far.

All right.

Let us bow our heads.

Dear Lord.

I did not consent.

I did not consent.

I did not consent.

I did not consent.

I did not consent.

I did not consent. I did not consent.

Dr. Fletcher, did you know about the demonstration beforehand?

I didn't.

Since the university doesn't have the same standard of proof as the criminal

justice system, what would be Terrence Berry's fate if the university decides

he's guilty?

They have publicly tried and convicted Terrence Berry, yet he has not been

charged with anything.

At best, this is rank bullying.

At worst, it's ugly vigilante justice.

He's too upset to appear at this press conference, so I will speak for him.

We are deeply disappointed in the university president for her lack of

When Cedric Hobbs was arrested, she insisted he receive his constitutional

presumption of innocence.

When a student chooses Georgia A &M, we choose them right back.

Those were Eva Fletcher's words.

Well,

Terrence Berry is waiting for you to choose him, Dr. Fletcher.

Thank you.

Thank you for waiting.

The campus police decided we don't need to be put through processing for

protesting.

Why disrupt your mother's first homecoming banquet?

To get your attention.

Myself and another woman spent this morning giving the Atlanta Police

her statements regarding being sexually assaulted by Terrence Berry.

I was drunk when he raped me.

My inebriation was an opportunity for Terrence to be a gentleman or a rapist.

He chose to be a rapist.

I know I exercise poor judgment by drinking too much.

I'm not proud of that.

Are you saying that you were too drunk to know what was going on? I'm saying

that from this day until my last, I am and always will be violated.

But I am not a victim.

I am a survivor who is taking responsibility for my behavior.

I need Terrence Barry to take responsibility for his.

Deontay. What's up?

How the math problems going? Yeah, all right.

Good.

Hey.

What's up?

Can I holler at you for a minute?

That's really all I have for you right now, Cedric.

A minute.

Look, I came up a certain way.

You know, you do what you got to do to survive.

So I did what I would have done.

I taught a little badass a lesson in survival, but that's my life.

I don't got nothing to do with what you're trying to do here.

I'm sorry for disrespecting that.

Bro.

Apology accepted.

That's it.

Apology accepted.

I don't know what else you want from me.

Nothing.

I'm out.

Dude, use your key.

Why are you...

Ted ain't here.

Bryce Beaver. I wanted to see you.

What do you want?

I'm sorry I didn't tell you I was in the van.

And I'm sorry you didn't hear me when I say that I never wanted to see you

again. It's going to be kind of difficult if you're hanging around my

What? Ebony, please don't.

Please don't do that.

I really appreciate it if you give me five minutes to say what I need to say.

Huh?

You got five minutes to explain.

Why you stab me in the back?

For

as

long as I can remember, I was the girl that wasn't invited to birthday parties.

Who never said the right things, never fit in.

I had to change schools because I was bullied so badly.

My mom once said to me, stop taking those stupid comic books if you want the

kids to stop attacking you.

Like getting beat up was my fault.

And then I came here.

And I got you as a roommate.

And me like the same classic hip -hop.

Same crappy cheesesteak.

You have the same dreams.

Finally,

somebody in the world who got me.

And you appreciated me so much that you had to screw me over to prove it? I

didn't screw you over. Donnie, stop.

I got beat down.

Okay?

I had to have two surgeries.

I still get bad headaches.

And you knew everything.

They were trying to break me.

But you kept saying they couldn't.

But they did.

And while I was sitting at home thinking about killing myself, you... You were

playing in my position.

Now tell me that that don't sound like betrayal to you. I'm trying to stab you

in the back.

I was planning his payback.

Whose payback?

Trump major asshole.

I knew he always took pictures on his cell phone of the music sheets.

So I waited for him to put his phone down or misplace it like he always does.

Then I grabbed him and mailed Mr. Diamond's composition to Clive Taylor.

So...

That's why y 'all played the May song at the Battle of the Band.

We had no choice after Southwestern Delta to perform Mr. Diamond's

before we did.

Wait, so you screwed your mentor over too?

I really don't know who you are.

Did you hear me?

Danny's gone.

He hazed you and I got rid of him.

Yeah. Thanks.

At least he's gone.

I mean, that's big.

It's really big.

Are you kidding me?

It just keeps getting better and better.

I

can't

even breathe.

It's never a dull moment, huh?

Never.

It's always something.

You want to talk about it?

Do I want to talk about my career problems with you?

No.

I'm not sure I'm supposed to take that.

What, you don't think that I can relate to your issues?

When we're together, I can forget about my issues.

I like that about us.

I mean, if we're going to ever be more than just this,

baby, I want to know what's on your mind, whether it be good or bad.

So go ahead and tell me.

What's bothering my baby?

Okay.

In the last year,

four female HBCU presidents were fired.

Contracts paid out and gone.

And you don't want to be the fifth?

Precisely. And then Dominique Briggs comes along.

Are you talking about a strip club owner?

How do you know?

You can't be a male at this school and not know about those clubs.

Anyway, he comes along with an opportunity to bring some real money in.

Now, if he delivers, I'm good here for as long as I want to be. But if he

doesn't... Well, then you're screwed.

And I have no desire to be the next member of the fired female president's

According to Dominique, if the audit clears, the university will get the

Now, will the donors want something in return?

Of course.

Will it be something that I can't or shouldn't deliver?

I certainly hope not.

Do you really not see that all Mr. Strip Club wants to do is get in your pants?

Thank you.

Thank you for proving.

That I should talk to you about my problems.

I have to go to work.

Get dressed.

I thought I'd tell my secretary to let you know my schedule was tight.

I just got out of a meeting with Bill Webster from the auditing firm.

You did, did you?

He's found a number of inconsistencies in the discretionary fund.

Care to guess in which sub -account these inconsistencies were discovered?

The suspense is killing me.

The president's office account.

Well... That can't be good for you.

I imagine the press is going to have a field day with that.

Type of thing that can get someone fired.

Or worse.

Yes, it's the worst that I'm looking forward to.

They're already considering reporting their findings through the authorities,

and when they do, I'm going to make sure that they look back.

Far back.

Until it leads back to you and Thurgood Bradford.

What makes you think it has anything to do with that?

Let's not pretend that you won't do anything to get to your end.

Means be damned.

Well, that's rich coming from someone who's crawled into bed, perhaps

with a man who owns a chain of strip clubs. Dominique Briggs is a more

man than you will ever be.

Once you stop looking at him through those rose -colored glasses, ask

why he came forward with a cockamamie excuse for an audit at this moment in

time.

Yes, I know he asked for it.

The school has a history with Mr. Briggs.

And it's history for a good reason.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

I was hoping I could speak with you.

The words sorry,

sheet music, or battle of the bands are about to come out of your mouth.

Save them for whatever marching band I have you. Have I ever given you a reason

to question my loyalty? Jesus called Judas to be a disciple.

So that's it?

You're not even going to entertain the idea that someone else did this?

Someone like that kid's ass freshman you let into the band?

Think about it.

She's the only one who'd screw you to screw me. Son, here's the thing about

responsibility.

Nobody gives a shit about your excuses.

Nobody cares about the whys, the whins, or the howls. They just want to know

that you delivered.

You were responsible for that music, and it was stolen.

You have to be held accountable for that.

I am being accountable.

I'm standing here begging you not to ruin my life for a betrayal that I

even commit.

Because I don't want to lose the only thing that I love.

I stayed here another year rather than graduate so I could be Gam U's drum

one more season.

This band is my life.

You done?

You know, maybe you never lost anything. Is that it?

Is that how you can be this callous? I have lost plenty.

I have lost plenty.

Yeah, well, maybe you haven't lost enough.

Maybe one day you will.

Thanks for coming in, Taisha.

Thank you for making time for me.

What are you doing here?

I go here, remember?

You want to see me, Coach?

A lot going on now.

Crazy -ass girls ruined our banquet.

I can't wait till this all dies down.

Cindy Fletcher and those other women, they look crazy to me.

They look serious, committed.

Show me something.

Now I need you to tell me something.

Do you remember asking?

You don't ask a girl, can you kiss her?

Coach, you kiss her.

What about the other girl who went to the police department with Sidney?

She's just mad because I hooked up with a roommate before I found out it was a

roommate. That girl was accepted to law school at Stanford.

You don't think she understands the consequences of falsely accusing someone

rape?

She felt like she was threatening. She should have screamed. You're looking for

screaming.

So why don't you do me a favor and say what happens here.

Wow.

You serious right now?

I can't be a coach who keep players around who sexually assaults girls and

take responsibility for it.

So what?

Huh?

You kicking me off the team?

For the moment,

I sat down to your mother.

Why I treated you like you wanted my own?

Because I promised I would.

But now somehow, someway, we ended up in this shitstorm.

Because you keep giving me answers that don't make sense.

You know what? Maybe it was my fault. Maybe I wasn't asking the right

Maybe I should have been asking, how many girls have you assaulted? So you

believe these tricks over me? I believe I put 80 other athletes' education in

jeopardy to stand by your side, and you left me! And I left you at the best

season since you've been in, and I don't see you complaining about that!

Well, clean out your locker.

You're done.

What am I supposed to do now? I don't give a damn what you do.

But right now,

you better get your ass out of my office before I end up in jail.

To an epic win. And the quarterback who made it happen.

No, no, no way.

I'm not drinking that.

Dude, you scored three touchdowns in the air and one on the ground.

Just take credit when it's due.

And do a quick go and go party.

They just don't feel right, you know?

Something awful had to happen to somebody just for me to get here.

Stop it, bro.

If it stands for you to not thank God for his blessing, just because he did it

in the way you wouldn't have thought.

Amen.

Hey, Ty.

I'm just wondering.

You and Terrence were together for a minute. Stop yourself right there.

So you're saying he... Didn't I just say stop yourself, Big J?

All right.

I'm changing the subject.

Thank you.

I see your racist asshole abusive father wasn't there.

Changed the subject again, Tite. It's cool, man.

I never mind honesty.

I know my father's an asshole.

But he's also the man that was at every practice.

Encouraged me in a way that only he knew how.

Well, thanks for being honest. You don't need that asshole in your life. Go

easy. You're still family.

We're your family now.

And Alyssa.

I guess.

And we don't have to kick your ass to broke it.

It's a family.

It's a family.

It's a family.

I like Elizabeth.

Is everything okay?

Never better.

How was your day?

It's over.

I'm here with you.

That's all that matters.

Should we take this upstairs?

No, no, I'll just... Jason, are you sure you're okay? Look, I know that

you probably thought that it wasn't the right time to tell me that you're

getting divorced, but... Jason.

Eva. The time is right.

And I mean right now for us to be together.

And baby, I mean for real.

Baby, will you marry me?

Jason.

Look, I know your divorce isn't final.

Jason, I'm sorry. I don't know if I ever want to get married again.

Does your quick decision have anything to do with the money, man?

What?

No.

And I don't appreciate what you're implying.

Yeah, I don't appreciate being played.

Being played?

What are we, 12?

No, Eva, what we are is done.

Jason, don't do that.

Come on, we both know. You don't know shit.

I promise you, you will.

Yeah, you're gonna.

I never had a street door with someone like... One minute.

Thank you.

Hey. What's up?

Hey Ted.

What's up? Call me later, okay?

Can I come inside?

But where's your roommate?

He went out hunting with his brother.

You know, they do weird shit like that.

Why are you here, bro?

Is it weird that I've wanted to kiss you ever since you saw that equation with

me?

Yeah, it kinda is.

Hmm.

I'll be your best student, baby, yeah, you won't love me. Just keep it coming

like I don't know what you love me.

Just keep it coming

like

I don't know what you love me. I want you to teach me.

Show me how you do it.

Show me how you do it.

Hey girl, come on.

Hey.

Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm going to assume that means congratulations on becoming homecoming.

So

I

think we want to make sure that we...

What is that?

Campus 911?

Help! I just walked up the steps and he's just lying there.

I think he shot himself.

Okay, try to calm down.

Tell me exactly where you are. Second floor.

Johnson Hall.

You're sending someone now.

We have a male student with what appears to be a selfish person. The gunshot

wound through his defeat.

It looks like the quarterback.

What a waste.

Coach Hardwick.

I don't wanna die alone I lost faith in heaven
