This may not be a popular opinion around here but I believe everything happens

for a reason.

Voltaire's 1759 novel Candide reflects the notion that we are living in the

of all possible worlds.

And while the novel might have been intended as satire, I don't see it that

I heard you sneak out the room early.

Yeah, old football habits, you know, wake up and pound something.

Used to be weights.

Now it's Voltaire, huh?

You read it?

Yeah, back in high school.

What's your thesis?

Candy was right. We live in the best of all possible worlds, even when it

doesn't seem that way.

Everything that happens is God's will.

You know that book scooping on the idea, right?

Might want to rethink that paper.

I think I got it, man. Thanks.

Just, if you read Candide in high school and shit, you probably didn't have a

lot of time to... To what?

To kill someone?

That's what everybody's saying.

You believe it?

Yo, look, I'm just trying to figure out if I need to sleep with one eye open or

not.

Nah.

You good.

Bad things happen to the novel's hero, but are they not a greater test of its

faith and resolve?

Evan, how's it going, bro?

I'm blessed, man.

I wish we had some of your blessings on the squad this year.

Homecoming coming up, we are going to shit that bed so hard.

I wish I could help out.

Yeah, man.

That's a shitty twist of fate, you getting hurt.

Sucks big for all of us.

Guess I should have been more careful.

Hey, bro, put that away. I got this.

You smashed your finger?

Yeah, man. Hurts like a motherfucker, too.

Man, that sucks.

Yeah. I mean, I didn't go full Watson on the oxy. Someone's got to stay sober,

you feel me?

I haven't touched that shit in nine months.

Booze, either.

Oh, way to go straight edge. It's good on you, hombre.

You should come support us. Homecoming, right?

Gonna be his chairing section?

He's dropping on me now?

Depends if you're talking about anything I'd consider interesting.

All right, well, what's the verdict?

I'm gonna scale from one to boring.

Section about Oxy wasn't a snooze. What was that about?

Sorry, bad topic?

Just a nosy frosh.

Pepper for plucky.

And your phone.

All right.

Text if you feel like talking or anything else.

What's up, small stuff?

So, what are they calling you, assistant coach?

Eventually.

Graduate assistant for now.

And I know some guys here, so we're good.

Did Dad put you up to this to check in on me?

Look, bro, I'm not saying I wouldn't rather be in the league right now.

But me, Dad, we all know you're the one with the real talent here.

So I'm doing my part.

to keep the Watson football dynasty alive.

And that means babysitting your ass until you go to Alabama.

Bryce. What? I've seen every doctor.

Gotta think positive, bro.

I can think positive all day. It's not going to un -tear my meniscus.

Bro, I'm doing well, man.

I'm crushing it in all my classes, getting closer to God, staying clean,

my brain for something other than getting concussions.

You know how football is. Every day is like being in a car accident. Who needs

that shit?

It's not easy, but I'm doing it.

What's up, man? Oh, you

know, been busy, like football, chem lab, work, church, other stuff.

Cool. Thank you. Yeah, later.

Sorry, I'm late.

Welcome to the first LGBTQQIAA club meeting of the year.

So I'm Chris Rummel, your

fearless leader.

Do we have any new recruits joining us?

I'm Kelly.

I'm a freshman.

I'm from Maryland, and I identify as Pan.

Pan? You sure you're from Maryland and not Neverland?

Well,

I never say never.

What's going on here?

Come on, bro, let's go. What the hell? Up, up, up. What are you all doing?

Kidnapping.

Hey.

Look who came out, y 'all.

Hey, y 'all, listen up, listen up, listen up.

Now, I know some of you guys a while.

Some of you I've known for literally a day.

But you've already treated me like family.

And that...

is what makes this team special.

It doesn't matter if you're still suiting up, you will always be a part of

team.

You know what I'm talking about.

Once a beaver, always a beaver. And that is why this squad is going to own the

Frogs at homecoming. Here we go.

What is that? We might be about to release a couple hundred frogs onto

Haynesville's campus.

There's a rivet, motherfucker.

Mike Costa, you degenerate.

Get over here, man.

How's it going?

How you been? Good, man. You a football fan now?

Sure seems that way.

Yo, how many years will it take for this guy to graduate college?

Man, I had a red shirt in my sophomore year.

Kiss my ass.

Oh, please. I trained with this guy.

He's always been crazy. Yep.

One crazy dude.

Yo, Evan, as Woodlawn's once former receiver, how do you feel about benching

Mike for homecoming?

Yo, Watson, you are way out of line, bro.

Oh, am I? My man, Barry Q, over here has his arm like a rocket. Yo, Q! What up,

Barry, man?

How do you feel about starting for homecoming?

I feel great about it. He feels great about it. Oh, yeah? Yeah, Bryce, he's a

freshman, man. You don't have that kind of authority. Yeah, we'll have the

coaches there.

How about this? So, Evan, go long.

Barrett, launch it. See what you got.

Yeah, bro, I don't think so.

You don't think so?

Man, I know so. All right, get your butt out there and catch that ball.

Make it happen.

Yo, launch it. All right?

Is your leg okay?

Uh,

hi. Hey, you wanna watch the end of the fucking world?

We kind of finished it already.

Oh.

Yeah, cool.

Sorry, dude.

No, it's... No problem.

I'll see you guys later.

Small stuff.

Looking for you, man.

Just been here, bro.

Yeah? You left early last night.

What's that about?

Just wanted to focus on this.

Oh, okay.

What's up with you and Mike?

Why are you asking?

What, you guys were looking at each other last night?

It's about that girl.

No, it's not about a girl.

Okay.

Well, tell me.

Don't make me beat it out of you, because I will.

Look, I don't want to talk shit. I know that's your boy. Y 'all go way back.

And you're my blood, all right?

So what do you do?

We got into it last year.

After he messed around with this girl on my floor, I was having time of a game,

and I said some stuff that got under his skin.

I mean, I meant to get under his skin.

And as I was walking back to the game, he swung his helmet into my... He did

what?

He said it was an accident, and we decided to leave it at that, okay?

that was the best thing for the both of us.

And after the doctor said that, my knee was done.

You were supposed to go to the league. I know.

He took that from you.

From us, from mom, from dad. Everything they planned for, your life. You can

still make it to the NFL.

Evan.

If I was going to the NFL, would I be here?

I hated him for a long time.

Carrying that around made it worse. Made me worse.

Letting go that whole life.

It just felt better.

And don't believe me that everything happens for a reason.

It's bullshit, Evan.

You make your own fate.

And there will be no justice for you unless we find it ourselves.

What's justice mean?

With or without you, Evan, he's gonna get his.

You see?

It's that Hollywood shit.

What?

Got a D on my candied paper.

Hmm.

How about that?

Hey,

buddy, what's happening? Yeah, can you keep your Hollywood orgies down, man?

trying to study.

Study? No offense, but aren't sports your thing, or... Fucking Andrew.

Have fun.

Evan, man, I didn't mean anything.

Now, where were we?

Hey, man, I kind of need the place tonight. Is that cool? Yeah, yeah,

cool. There's a girl in there. I gathered.

Kelly from LGBT.

She called me a strong leader.

I wasn't sure how all this sexy stuff was going to shake out, but it turns out

it's shaking great.

Game's tomorrow.

See you then, loser.

That's a very effective intimidation tactic you have at Haynesville.

Scary shit.

Good shit, Dad.

Nah, bitch. Stay here.

Oh, message received. I'm pissing my pants.

Awesome.

Get in there.

Get in there. Get in there.

Get in there.

Get in there. Come on.

You got it?

Giddy twist of fate.

Oh, my God. What happened to your hand?

Nothing.

It's like blood.

Yeah, I cut it doing some football stuff.

But I thought you didn't play anymore.

Yeah, well, I... So whose is it? You killed somebody?

No. Jesus, Seven. Calm down. I'm kidding.

All right, good night.

Oh, uh, hey.

You're Wallace's roommate, right?

Is he cool?

What are you trying to do, rebound?

Oh, no, I, um... I just heard some things.

Wallace is cool.

That's what I thought.

It's game day, baby.

Why aren't you there?

Because I'm not on the team.

I mean, not officially, but you're still part of the squad.

You're at the tailgate.

Keep it down.

Look, bro.

Nobody's saying anything.

Everybody's just happy we won.

It's not a big deal.

All you gotta do is keep your mouth shut.

We're good.

I can't believe I let you make me do that. I didn't make you do anything.

mike got what was coming he got justice justice isn't supposed

to feel dirty

Hey. Um, you never, you never texted.

Nope.

How come?

Figured you put me in your phone as football player. Didn't want to get

with all the others.

You mean, uh, injured football player.

Mike got pretty messed up.

Heard it was a Hainesville prank that went bad.

Yeah, that sucks.

See ya.

Was it because of me?

Me and Constance have had beef since way before you got here.

And all I did was take your number.

You should probably holler at Bear Q now. I heard he's killing it.

You're wrong.

I got your number because I like you.

Yeah, you like Mike, too. No, I was only talking to him because I... Because

I... Because what? Because someone wrote who killed this deal on his chest last

year.

And the only reason... that you're talking to me is because Liv had oxygen

her system the night she died.

What's up with you?

I'm doing a story.

I'm here to figure out who killed Liv Deal.

Let it go, Lex.

This isn't your fight.

Evan, just go home.

Please. It's not happening until I do what I came here to do.
