(lighthearted music)

- [Betty Ann] Amy?

(lighthearted music)

Amy!

- I'm comin'!

- Honey, we've got to go right now,

or we're both gonna be late.

- [Norm] First day of high
school, I cannot believe it.

- Yeah, well it's gonna be the second

if we don't get cracking.

Come on!

- Goodbye, Daddy.

- Love you, Pumpkin.

(Amy chuckles)

- You know, Mom, if I had my own car

you could go to work right on time,

and you wouldn't have to worry.

- Yeah, right.

I wouldn't have to worry about you driving

without a license.

Here, help me.

(catchy lighthearted music)

(truck honks)

Are you excited?

First day of school?

(lighthearted music)

(catchy music)

- Goodbye, Mom.

- Goodbye, honey.

- Don't miss me too much.

- [Betty Ann] Have fun!

(lighthearted music)

- Can you believe it?

We finally made it to high school.

- Oh my God, this is so cool.

- Check him out.

- I am so excited, I could burst!

- Oh, girlfriend, did you
hear about Candi McCardell?

She's dating a senior,

and everybody says that they're doing it.

- Oh, please, that's what Candi McCardell

wants you to think,

she's not doing it any more than you are.

- How do you know I'm not?

- Because as soon you do it,

everyone in Tate's gonna know.

- Nah uh!

(crowd cheers)

(festive band music)

(whistles blow)

- [Announcer] And now, Principal Arnet!

(crowd cheers)

- Hey!

You just laid down in the entire state!

- So, are you going out for cheerleading?

- No, just tennis and basketball teams.

What about you?

- Cheerleaders get the best boyfriends.

- Have you hugged your cat today?

I know I'm going to.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I give you the very best
football team in the world.

Your football team,
Oklahoma's football team,

the Tate Wildcats!

(crowd cheers)

- Oh my God, it's Darrell Winchell.

- Oh, would you get real?

There is no way that he's
gonna talk to a freshman.

- I know, but he's like the quarterback,

and he's like a god.

- Oh, please, he is so stuck up.

- And the very best coaching staff,

headed by our own Peter Nash!

(crowd cheers)

- Now that's what I call a babe.

Coach Nash!

- Oh, I have him for bio.

- Me too!

- Really?
- Really?

You guys, he's the cutest coach in school.

- And everybody says that he's easy.

Well, you know, if you're a pretty girl.

He lets those pretty girls
get away with anything.

- No way.

- Way.

And he always has that
special girlfriend, you know?

Like a little special pet.

And she doesn't have
to do any work at all.

One year it was Missy Ross,
and then Donna Barnes,

and I think this class
it's Tiffany Bryant.

(crowd cheers)

- Okay.

Who could tell me the parts of a flower?

Anybody?

Not all at once.

(students chuckling)

Uh, Kimberly?

Kimberly Jones?

Kimberly, do you have a boyfriend?

- Yeah.

- Well, what's his name?

- Wayne.

- Wayne?

(students chuckling)

Has Wayne ever sent you flowers?

- [Kid] Yeah, if he could steal 'em.

(Amy chuckles)

- Amy, Amy Dustin?

Hi.

- Hi.

- Has anybody ever sent you flowers?

- No.

- They will.

- Isn't the flower like
where the seeds are?

- The flower contains the
reproductive organs of the plant.

So, ladies, when that
guy sends you flowers,

what's he really sending you?

(students laugh)

- He's always talking dirty in class.

I don't like it.

- Thanks a lot, Miss Brooks.

- Bye, Amy!

- [Norm] All I'm asking for
is a couple of weeks, Tom.

- [Tom] Well, the thing is,
Norm, I'd like to help out,

I really would.

But bank rules is bank rules,

and I just can't do it.

- [Norm] I understand,
you'll get your money.

You have my word on it.

- [Tom] I don't need your word, Norm,

I got your collateral.

- Hey, pumpkin!

How'd it go today?

- Fine.

- You know my daughter
Amy, don't you, Tom?

- Oh, hell, I've known Amy
since she was knee high.

My, what a pretty thing
you turned out to be!

- She takes after her daddy.

(Tom laughs)

- Well, listen, I've gotta go now.

- I'll show you out, Tom.

- Yeah, okay.

Nice to see you, Amy.

- Yeah.

- It'll be just a minute.

So, what do you think of the Wildcat's

chances this season?

- We're going to State.

Ah, we better have something

to look forward to this year.

Our poor little town's limping a bit,

what, with the dipping oil prices and all.

- Tell me about it.

- Hey, Lucy, looking mighty fine there.

When's Harry gonna put
a bun in that oven, huh?

(Lucy laughs)

(Tom laughs)

So we'll have that check
by Friday, right, Norm?

- You got it.

- Okay, see you then.

- [Amy] Are you ready to go, Dad?

- Sure.

- Can I drive?

- You got $100?

(Norm chuckles)

- Come on.

You know, it would be so
much easier on you, Mom.

You'd be able to take afternoon classes

instead of having to
drag me all over town.

Plus, you can get your homework done

at a reasonable hour.

It would save you so much time.

- You're 14, honey.

They don't give driver's
license to 14 year olds

for a good reason.

- Well, I don't need a driver's license,

all I need is a car.

And Dad said that he could get me-

- No, honey, that's it.

You're too young to have a car, period.

- Come on, Betty Ann.

She's a damn good driver.

She's better than most of
the women in this town.

- [Betty Ann] It's against the law.

- Well, it's a stupid law.

- You know, if there's one thing

this family should know by now,

it's the price you pay
for breaking the law.

- For crying out loud, Betty Ann,

do we have to bring my daddy into this?

- Well, if your daddy hadn't decided

that it was up to him to figure out

which laws to disobey,

we wouldn't be scrambling
to save the dealership,

or have to fool with the
likes of Jack Lawson.

- For the 10,000th time,
I have a loan to pay off,

and Jack Lawson is bringing in the cash.

- You know, I wouldn't
even have to cross 95,

it's not even half a mile.

- Don't like him, don't trust him.

- It's business, Betty Ann.

Why don't you just stick to that

interior design school stuff of yours,

and let me take care
of the business, okay?

I'm going back to the office.

Don't wait up.

(dog barks)

- Why don't you clear the table, Amy.

(bell rings)

- All right, the good news is

these papers were better than last time,

the bad news is that last
time, as we all remember,

was not so great.

(lighthearted music)

(bell rings)

You want to score some extra credit?

- Sure.

- I need some help grading these papers.

What do you have 4th period?

- Uh, English.

- Cut it.

I'll write you a note.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Is something bothering you?

- No.

- Parents?

Uh oh, bingo.

- It just seems like all they
ever do anymore is fight.

I mean, we never have a good time

as a family anymore.

No matter how it starts out,

it always ends up in an argument.

- Must be rough on you.

- Well, my dad's under a
lot of pressure at work,

and my mom just went back to school,

and he hates that.

- So they take it out on you?

- I guess.
- Yeah.

I see it all the time,

parents get so caught
up in their own problems

they don't see the effect

it's having on their own kids.

Any time you need a shoulder to cry on,

there's one right here.

Just for you.

Hey.

I mean it.

You're special.

(lighthearted music)

(men yelling)

Get up there now, come on.

- Come on, you guys!

You go to the football games, don't you?

Half the town would be at
practice if they could.

(whistles blowing)

- Oh, Amy, watching football practice

is about as much fun
as watching paint dry.

- [Kimberly] Well, she just
wants to see her boyfriend.

- What boyfriend?

- Coach Nash.

She has the most major crush on him.

- So?

Kelly has a crush on
Bobby Earle, doesn't she?

- Which is exactly why I don't
wanna hang around practice,

it'll look so obvious.

- [Amy] Come on, you guys, it'll be fun!

(Mr. Nash claps)

- Oh my God.

Look at her, Amy's in love.

- Earth to Amy, Earth to Amy,

he's like 50 years old.

- He's a teacher.

- All right, let's see it now.

(Mr. Nash claps)

(lighthearted music)

Now, some of these were not too bad.

And of course, there were some others

that were, well,

I don't think I want to say it out loud.

But what I'd like for you to do

for the remainder of the period

is kind of look over your mistakes,

and see if we can't
improve on that next time.

All right?

(lighthearted music)

(bell rings)

- [Cassie] Oh, great.

- Honey, please don't play with your food.

Cassie, go into the kitchen,

get something to wipe this up with.

- Thanks.

She spilled it.

How come I have to wipe it up?

- 'Cause she's 5 and you're 16.

No backtalk, young lady.

Bobby Lee, it isn't funny.

- [Cassie] Yeah, shut up, Bobby Lee.

- Pete, did you hear me?

Pete, did you hear what
I was talking about?

- [Cassie] Angela, move it!

- Yeah, you were talking
about Thanksgiving.

- I asked if you talked to Coach Vogler

about the coffee pot.

- I'm sorry, I forgot.

- Pete, I've asked you
three times already.

- All right, all right, I'll ask him.

- [Wife] Or else we're gonna have to

tell Angela's pre-school

that we can't pay them this month

'cause we had to go out
and buy a coffee pot.

- I said I'll ask him.

- Where you goin'?

- I gotta work on the game plan.

(cheerleaders cheering)

(crowd cheers)

- I don't know, she's
just always on your case.

- Look, you've gotta be patient with her,

she's put herself under a lot of pressure.

(quarterback calls)

Honey, we've gotta look at it
from your mom's point of view.

She's just as serious about
this decorator school stuff

as you and I are about Wildcat football.

(crowd cheers)

- [Announcer] Touchdown, Tate Wildcats!

(band music)

(phone rings)

- Hello?

- [Pete] Hi.

- Who is this?

- I'll give you a hint.

Someone who thinks you're real pretty.

- Hi.

- I swear, if my mother doesn't stop

ragging on my hair, I'm gonna scream.

Watch, we'll get in the car,

and the first thing she'll say is,

"Kelly, I don't know why
you had to change your hair,

it looked so pretty before."

- Well, at least you
can talk to your mother.

I mean, my mother, she still thinks

that the world is exactly the same

as it was when she was in high school.

And I'm all, special bulletin,
that was like 30 years ago.

- Mom problems?

- Yeah.

They should all join a
club, the mothers from hell.

(Pete laughs)

- Oh, that wouldn't work.

All the mothers in this town

want to be president of that club.

Hey, Amy, I brought
that magazine article in

I was telling you about.

It's in my locker, come
on, I'll give it to you.

- What magazine article?

- You know.

- [Kelly] Amy, that's my mom.

- It'll just take a minute, come on.

(car honks)

- I'll just be back in a sec.

- I'll see y'all later.

- What magazine?

What's going on, Coach?

(romantic music)

- You hear about Candi
McCardell's friend over Easter?

- Who?
- What?

- Okay, she and her boyfriend
are doing it, right?

So she decides to tell her
parents for whatever reason.

And her father keels over

and has a heart attack right there

at the dinner table.

His head falls right into his plate.

- No way!
- No!

- Yes!

I swear to God, you cannot
tell your parents anything.

- Shouldn't you ladies be at school?

- Hey, Coach, we're at lunch.

- Coach, that beer sure looks good.

Why don't you get one for us?

- You don't mess around, do you?

(Kimberly laughs)

- Not always.

- You want me to buy you a beer.

- No, girls, that wouldn't be right.

We want wine coolers.

- Yeah, wine coolers!

Come on, Coach.

- Well, how about it, Amy?

You think I should buy
these ladies a cocktail?

- Yeah.

- Okay then.

Be right back.

♪ Turn the lights down low ♪

(Kelly chuckles)

- Hey, Coach, neat tapes!

- My daughter gave them to me.

You know her?

Cassie.

She's a sophomore, over at Jackson.

- She's on the basketball team, huh?

Yeah, I've seen her, she's good.

- I think you two would hit it off,

I'll introduce you to her.

- This is such a great truck, Coach.

- You want to take it for a drive?

- Are you kiddin'?

- Don't let anyone see you.

(Kimberly laughs)

Amy, Amy.

Hold up, I want to talk
to you, let 'em go.

(tires screeching)

(dog barks)

(Amy chuckles)

I have something for you.

Here.

- The Mavericks, I can't
believe it, I love them.

- I heard that song when
I was driving around,

it made me think of you.

Songs say things better
than words, don't you think?

- You're too much.

- Yes, I am.

That's always been my problem.

I'm a little bit too much.

Too much for Tate High School,

too much for this town.

You are too, aren't you?

- What do you mean?

- You're different from most
of the girls around here.

I think you got something inside of you

that's destined for something bigger.

Or are you just gonna marry
an ex football player,

have three kids, and push a shopping cart

through a supermarket
the rest of your life?

- I hope not.

- You are special, Amy.

And don't let anybody ever
tell you any different.

(truck honks)

All right.

- Hey, you guys!

How was it?

(girls cheering)

- Wildcats, Wildcats!

(girls cheering)
(car honks)

- Wildcats all the way!

Okay, come on.

Come on in here.

(girls chuckling)

Ladies, try to keep it down to
a suitable volume, all right?

Come on.

Sit down over here and
put your stuff on that.

Why don't you have a seat over here?

- Oh, Amy, come on.

- Where you goin'?

Now don't go back in there now, come on.

Ladies!

Ladies, you're not supposed
to be back there, come on.

- [Kimberly] Doesn't that hurt you?

- [Amy] No, we do it all the time.

See?

- Okay, get out of the way, I wanna try.

- Kimberly, hey.

No, come on, get down from there.

- Why don't you come over here and help?

- Oh!

- [Kimberly] Come on, come and get me.

- Okay, you asked for it.

- Oh!

- How about this?

- Woo!

(Pete chuckles)

- You could use a few less french fries.

- Well, maybe you can
use a few more pushups.

- Oh!

Oh, you're cruel, aren't you?

- [Kelly] Oh, no, no, try me!

- All right.

Now, that's more like it.

You're light as a feather.

Okay, Amy.

You're next.

- Okay, hold on a second.

- What?

What are you doing?

- You think you can catch me?

- Oh, I believe I can.

You ready?

Come on.

One, two, three!

(Amy laughs)
(Pete laughs)

Good catch.

- I told you.

- [Amy] You're so strong!

- [Peter] Well, I can do this all day.

You know that?

(Amy chuckles)

- You ladies want to go wait
at one of those tables please?

Coach, may I talk to you
in my office a minute?

- Keep it down, now.

- What are you doing
with those girls, Coach?

- I was writing them passes.

I'm taking them for extra practice.

- That did not look like
appropriate behavior

for a teacher.

- Look, we were just having a little fun.

- Fun for whom?

Them or you?

- Come on, Caroline.

There's nothing wrong
with what I was doing

with those girls.

Can I go now?

- Sure.

You can go now.

(Pete chuckles)

- [Arnet] There's always
rumors about coaches,

but you gotta take it
with a grain of salt.

What was he doing there
in the first place?

- I have no idea.

But I'm telling you,

he was holding them in his arms.

- Right in full view in the library?

- Yes.

And it wasn't just the first time either.

You know, he's always in the halls

surrounded by girls,

and he can't seem to
keep his hands off them.

- Well, Coach Nash is a popular teacher,

the girls like to be around him.

- That doesn't make it okay

for him to do what he was doing.

- Yeah, but Caroline,

we all put our arms around students.

It makes them feel good.

I do it myself.

After all, I'm the one who had

that bumper sticker made, huh?

- Mr. Arnet, are you listening to me?

I'm telling you, I saw Pete Nash behaving

in an extremely inappropriate
manner with those girls.

- Miss Sweeney, I heard
you loud and clear,

and I'm gonna take care of it.

(dramatic music)

- No, no, no, wait.

- I won't hurt you.

- I never have.

- Don't you want to?

- I don't know.

- I keep forgetting how young you are.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- No, I didn't mean it like that.

- I'm no younger than Missy was.

- Who?

- Missy Ross.

Did you do this with her?

- No, Amy.

Are you kidding me?

I've never done this
with a student before.

Do you know how much trouble
I can get into for this?

She was a girl who had a crush on me.

She chased me, and people
made a big thing of it,

that's all.

- Well, what about the others?

- You don't believe those rumors, do ya?

You know how people like
to talk in this town.

What do you think I am?

It's just you.

You're just special.

I've never felt this way
about anybody before.

- I'm sorry.

- If you don't want to,

I'm not gonna force you.

We'll take this nice and slow.

I'm in no hurry.

Okay?

- Okay.

paper due tomorrow.

- I really want to see you.

- I've got a C in English,

my mom's real bummed out about it.

- Don't worry about that,

I'll talk to your English teacher.

- Well, my dad won't be home 'til late,

I'd have to wait 'til they get to sleep.

Wait for what?

So you can be a virgin
when you get married?

- Are you mad at me?

- I want to be with you forever.

I swear, it's the truth.

I want to tell my wife about us,

and your parents, everybody.

(kids chattering)

- Yeah, but she didn't do the assignment.

- She will.

But a C in English really
brings down her average,

and she was practically in tears

when she was telling me about it.

- She'll be out in a second.

Can't believe how long it takes

to get that casual, un-steadied look.

So, Amy said that Cassie
invited her to spend the night?

- Yeah, that's what they arranged.

- [Norm] Well, look at you.

- [Mom] Honey, you look adorable.

- [Pete] You do.

- I can't believe you're gonna take

four screaming teenage girls to a concert,

you deserve a medal.

- I don't mind.

- Well, you got more
guts than I do, Coach.

Don't forget your ear plugs.

- Okay, all right, we'll see ya.

- Goodnight, sweetie-
- Goodnight.

- Have fun.

- Buh-bye.

- Ah, we'll be fine.

- Yeah, thanks anyway.

- Goodnight.

- So we had a rock concert all night

- Go to bed, Mom.

- Just don't burn down the house.

Amy, do you need anything?

- No, no, I'm fine.

- Well, maybe if I grew my
hair long and wore makeup

I can have girls screaming

Open your books to chapter three,

take out a piece of paper,

- No, it's like a study hall,

it'll help you on your final.

Amy, can I see you in

about my driving from anybody,

you can take away the keys.

But can I just please go

Please?

- Oh, hell, you would've just said no.

(catchy rock music)

- Amy, this is such a cool car,

and now we won't have to ride with my mom.

- Well, that's a good thing,

because my mother is getting on my nerves.

She's giving me such a
hard time about Wayne.

I mean, last night, I had to say to her,

"Mother, just because he's been to rehab,

it doesn't make him a bad person."

- Because every time he gets out of rehab,

he screws up again.

- That's not his fault.

He just needs someone to be nice to him.

- Kimberly, he's a loser.

He's never gonna change.

We're all getting sick of
hearing you talk about him.

- Wow.

At least he's not a child
molester like your boyfriend.

- He is not.

- And what else would you call it?

I mean, it's weird.

You'd think he'd want to be
with someone his own age.

- You can't help who
you fall in love with,

it just happens.

- And what's that supposed to mean?

So now you two are in love?

- Amy, you're kidding, with Nash?

- Well, it's amazing.

I mean, you listen to all
those words of those songs,

and they're just words

until you actually feel it for yourself.

- So, what have y'all done?

- We've kissed, French
kissed, with tongue.

- Did you do it?

Did you go all the way?

- Well, I'm still a virgin,
if that's what you mean.

Technically.

- You stay out here.

Kimberly.

Well, Coach Nash is a popular teacher.

There's always rumors about him

with one girl or another.

- Well, maybe they're not just rumors.

- You know how they start?

Coach Nash talks to a pretty girl,

maybe another girl, one he
didn't talk to, gets jealous,

so she starts spreading
rumors to get back at him.

Now, you think maybe that's
what's going on here, Kimberly?

Coach Nash is paying a
little more attention to Amy,

and you're just a wee bit jealous?

- Mr. Arnet, Amy as much told us

that he was messing with her.

- Well, how do you know
that she wasn't bragging?

- Coach Nash and Amy are doing it.

I think someone should
do something about it.

- All right, I'll look into it.

Thank you.

(door slams)

(bell rings)

(kids cheer)

- I swear, I am not gonna open one book

this entire summer.

- Me neither.

I'm spending the entire
summer by the pool.

- Hey, Amy!

How's it going?

- Pretty good.

- Are you gonna go to the
Founder's Day Festival?

- Yeah, I think so.

Why?

- I just thought maybe I'd see you there.

- [Amy] Sure.

- [Cory] Great.

- Amy?

Can I see you a minute?

(Cory laughs)

- All right, I'll see you guys later.

- Bye.

- [Pete] Amy!

- I'll call you later.

- Come here.

- No, not at school!

- Why not?

So you can't run off and
do it with Cory Wilkins?

- I hardly know him.

- That's not what it looked like to me.

- He was just saying hello.

- I can't go all summer
without seeing you.

I got an idea.

You can come camping with us,

we go out to the lake.

- Your whole family?

- Sure, sure, it'll be fine,

we'll get off by ourselves.

- [Betty Ann] Are you
even listening to me?

- Mhm.

- She's like a person I don't even know.

You know, she never laughs anymore at all,

she never cuts up or teases-

- Hell, it's just
hormones, she's growing up,

she's not your little girl anymore.

- Well, I know that,

but she's so angry all the time!

- She's just being a teenager, Betty Ann.

We're in for 5 more years of it,

might as well get used to it.

But you know, you were

so I didn't know if you were available.

- Well, like, for what?

- Hey!

- Wilkins.

Get away from her.

What the hell is the matter with you?

You're acting like some
kind of little slut.

I'm not gonna say it again, Wilkins!

Keep your hands off her!

- We were only dancing!

- Do you want to get thrown off the team?

Hey!

Amy.

Settle down, settle down.

- Leave me alone!

(dramatic music)

(car door slams)

- I'm sorry, but it makes me crazy

when I see you with another guy.

- Now everybody knows.

- Who cares?

- I care, I don't want Cassie to know.

- Then why were you with him?

- We were just dancing!

- Don't you see how that makes me crazy?

If you keep making me flip out like that,

we're gonna get caught.

My job is gonna be history, my family too.

And that's gonna be your fault.

- I can't do this anymore.

- You don't mean that.

- I'm tired of feeling dirty and ashamed,

I don't want to see you anymore.

- Don't you understand?

I love you.

Don't you get that?

Come on.

Come on, Amy.

- No, please, I don't want to.

- Come on, I just want to hold you.

Look at me.

I love you.

You can't leave me, what
am I gonna do without you?

(dramatic music)

Come on.

Come on.

Be nice.

This ain't so bad, is it?

You like it.

You know you do.

(dramatic music)

(people clapping)

- Men, I don't have to tell you

what joy and pride our football
team brings to our lives.

Now, the economy can go to hell,

the whole country can go to hell.

(people laughing)

But damn it, never, ever
take high school football.

(people clapping)

Now, Coach Nash is gonna give us a preview

of what we can look forward to this fall.

Coach?

(people clapping)

- Thank you.

I want to thank y'all
for coming out today,

and thank you for your support.

I'll get into the specifics

of the offense and the
defense in just a little bit.

But first, I want to say one thing.

Last year, we went to the quarterfinals,

and for a lot of teams,

that's the best that they can hope for.

But I tell you what.

This season I guarantee our
boys will be wearing jackets

that say Oklahoma State Champions.

(people clapping)

- Well, it looks like it's gonna be

another great year, Mickey.

- Yeah, we got 14 returning
seniors, that's pretty good.

- And the best coaching
staff in the state.

- Thank you, Norm.

See ya, L.V.
- See ya.

- Norm.

I heard your wife's going back to school.

- Oh, yeah.

Says she's gotta open up and branch out.

Says the team's boring her to death.

- Hey, she's spending
too much time with you.

(Norm laughs)

- This is true.

- We should have a good season.

Hell, I don't see how we can miss

the trip to State this year.

- Oh, not with the strong horses we got.

- Just what I was saying!

- See you guys later.

- See ya, L.V.

- How's it going, Norm?

- Business is getting better,

I'm selling a few cars.

- Hey, listen.

There's nothing funny going on

between Coach Nash and Amy, is there?

- What the hell is that supposed to mean?

- Well, there's been a
lot of talk about them.

Guess there was some kind
of a scene at Founder's Day.

- What kind of scene?

- Coach was all over her about something.

- You're kidding.

- I heard a lot of people
say that they left together.

- What?

- Didn't Mickey McGregor
mention anything to you?

- Hell no.

- Norm?

- Thanks, Tom.

(engine revs)

(dog barks)

Where you going, Amy?

- Over to Kelly's.

- What's this I hear
about you and Coach Nash

at Founder's Day?

- What'd you hear?

- You tell me, Amy.

What's going on?

- Nothing.

- Is he bothering you, Amy?

- [Amy] No!

- Because if he is, I
want to know about it.

You tell me, and I'll put a stop to it.

- Look, Dad, everything's fine,

nothing's going on.

Look, I gotta go.

- [Pete] Hey, Norm.

How's it going?

- I want to know what happened
at Founder's Day, Pete.

What's going on between you and Amy?

- Nothing's going on, Norm.

Nothing but a bunch of nasty rumors.

- Let's not beat around the bush here.

I want to know the truth.

Are you messing with my daughter?

- No, of course not.

I mean, she's a special
kid, I'm fond of her,

but she's the same age as
Cassie, for God's sakes.

- You know if I found out
you were messing with her,

I'd see to it you never mess
with anybody ever again.

- Norm, Norm, I'd do the same thing.

It's strictly teacher-student, I swear.

And I'll tell you father to father

why I blew a fuse at Founder's Day.

She was hanging out with Cory Wilkins.

Now, I'd hate to see a
girl of Amy's caliber

throw herself away on
a lowlife like Wilkins.

I mean, I kinda feel like
she's my own daughter,

I thought I'd be doing you both a favor.

- Well, she's not your
daughter, Pete, she's mine.

And I'll be advising her as to who

she should be hanging around with.

Speaking of which, I don't
think I'm gonna be able

to let her go on a camping trip next week.

- Come on, Norm.

My wife and kids and Kelly,
they're all gonna be there.

She's been looking forward
to this for a long time.

You're gonna break her heart.

And all night long, he
tossed and he turned,

and outside, he heard the wind howl.

Finally at dawn, he fell
into a deep, deep sleep.

Until he was awakened by a sound.

(banging)

And the door flew open,

and in hobbled the monkey's paw!

(women screaming)

- You scared-

- Oh, she's fine!

- Honey, it's okay.

- You're not scared, are you, sweet pea?

(owl hoots)

(frogs croaking)

(owl hoots)

- Honey, can you hand me
that sleeping bag over there?

No, no, the right one.

Goodbye, Kelly.

- Bye.

- Goodbye, Amy.

It was sure great having you.

- [Amy] Bye.

- Here you go.

- Oh, what's this, a bribe?

- Let's just say it's our secret.

- So, are you gonna
tell me what's going on?

- Nothing.

- Amy, I'm not stupid.

Maybe Mrs. Nash and
Cassie are, but I'm not.

- I don't know what you mean.

- It really pisses me off

that you don't think you can trust me.

- I told you what was going on.

- I think you left out a lot.

Look, I'm supposed to be your best friend.

- Okay, I'll tell you.

But you gotta promise not to tell anybody.

- All right, I promise.

- I mean, even if you hate
Coach Nash after I tell you,

you can't tell anybody,

because he'll lose his job, his family,

his wife, everything.

I mean it, okay?

You gotta swear.

- [Kelly] All right, I swear.

- We did it.

- [Kelly] Does Cassie know?

- I don't think so.

- What was it like?

- It was okay.

But come on, you promised,

you can't tell anybody.

- Amy, it's wrong.

- He loves me.

- Do you love him?

You have to tell someone.

- I can't, I'll ruin his life if I do.

- Amy, you have to tell someone.

- Mom?

- Mhm?

- Is dad your first boyfriend?

- No, but I guess he was
my first serious one.

- I mean like, the ones before dad.

Were you in love with them,

or was it different with him?

- Well, it was definitely
different with your daddy.

I mean, from the moment we met each other

we were just laughing and cutting up

and being silly and everything.

Why?

- I don't know, just curious.

I mean like, how do you
know when you're in love?

- Well, grandmamma always used to say,

"When it's love and it's
right, you'll know it."

Sure enough, being with
your daddy did feel right.

Amy, honey.

Why are you asking me this now?

Is there someone you
think you're in love with?

- No.

Norm asked me to give you a call.

We're filling out some insurance forms,

Lucy, she's asleep.

But you know what?

I've got her purse,

so let me just see if
I can find it in here.

Lucy, get Norm on the phone.

(dramatic music)

(bell tolls)

- [Billington] Hi, Mrs.
Dustin, how are you?

- Billington.
- Good to see you.

- Appreciate you coming down to see us

in the summertime.

- Not at all.

Superintendent of the
school is a year round job.

- [Norm] Look, the thing is,

it just doesn't seem right to us

that a teacher should be writing notes

like this to a student.

I mean, we're not accusing
anybody of anything,

but for crying out loud,
it makes you wonder.

- [Billington] Well, if he
says no and she says no,

then all we've got to go on are rumors,

and we'll need a little more than that.

- I am not talking about a rumor,

I am talking about what
he wrote on this picture.

"Please don't ever change,

and don't ever leave me."

I mean, she is a freshman in high school,

and he's telling her not to change?

- That's not what he meant.

- Well, what did he mean?

- He's just trying to be friendly.

- Is this the same teacher
who was supposed to be

hugging the girls that day in the library?

- What is that?

- That was according to
Miss Sweeney, the librarian,

but I talked to Nash,

and everything was absolutely innocent.

We all hug the kids, Miss Dustin.

It's our way of being affectionate,

you know, making them feel included.

- Any grown man that
writes this to a child

should not be in the school system.

I don't care how innocent-

- Miss Dustin.

You have a perfect right to want

your little girl protected,

and I'm gonna see that she is.

We'll conduct a full inquiry

and get to the bottom of this.

You don't think you're being too friendly

with these girls, do you?

- [Pete] Amy's a special
girl, I'm real fond of her,

but there's nothing going on.

- She's 15.

It's a criminal offense if there is.

Statutory rape.

- She's my daughter's age, for God's sake.

What kind of man do you think I am?

- That's what I called
you out here to find out.

This isn't the first time

parents have complained about you.

- It's strictly teacher-student.

I'll swear that on the Bible.

- Damn it, Nash.

You better not have been
messing around with these girls,

or there's gonna be hell to pay.

See that you stay away from her.

I don't even want it to look funny.

(gun fires)

(kids talking)

- Now, remember, if he
bothers you in any way at all,

you let me know about it immediately.

- You know what, Mom?

Why don't you just come to school with me

and follow me around?

- I wish I could.

God only knows what he's gonna do

after not having seen you all summer.

Now, I'm really gonna trust you

to use your good judgment, okay?

- I'm fine.

Would you just stop worrying about me?

(dog barks)

Hey, Cory.

How you doin'?

- Fine.

- How was your summer?

- Listen, Amy, I can't talk to you.

- How come?

- Bye.

- Hi.

How was your day?

- You're not supposed to talk to me.

- Why are you avoiding me?

- Look, just leave me alone.

- What did I do?

- I'm not supposed to talk to you.

(bell rings)

- Since what do you care
what you're supposed to do?

- I don't know, it's like he's having

a really hard time with this.

- Bobby says that
everyone's talking about it.

It's like he's in a bad mood all the time.

- I can't help that.

- There he is.

- I'm telling you, something is going on.

I don't like the way she's been acting.

- She's our daughter, Betty Ann.

We've got to trust her.

If this was happening, she'd tell us.

- Not if she's scared
to death, she wouldn't.

- They said they would look into it,

you've gotta give them a chance.

- No, I don't.

- It's always a freshman.

By the time they're sophomores,

they're too old for him.

He always moves on to something new.

Last year it was Missy Ross, Donna Barnes,

it's always someone.

Of course, he's always been
like that, a real flirt.

- Jenna McCue transferred
out of his biology class.

Said that all he did was
flirt with the pretty girls.

- Will you look at me, please?

All I want to do is talk to you.

Amy.

Amy, can I see you for a second?

Why are you avoiding me?

- Please stop doing this.

- I will if you tell me why
you're doing this to me.

- Everybody's watching.

- Then meet me later.

- No.

- Amy, I'm not gonna let up

until you agree to talk to me.

- No!

- All right, then I'm
gonna tell everybody,

only don't think that I'm the only one

that's gonna go down,

because you're gonna be in
just as much trouble as I am.

Hey, listen up, everybody!

I got something I want to tell you!

- All right, I'll meet you later.

- [Betty Ann] Miss Sweeney?

- Yes?

- [Betty Ann] Hi, I'm Betty Ann Dustin.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- My daughter Amy goes to Tate High,

and I'm trying to track down
some rumors about Coach Nash,

and I've been told to talk to you.

- Would you like to come in, Miss Dustin?

- Whenever I hear that
song, I think of you.

I play it all the time.

It's the only way I feel close to you now.

Don't you miss me?

Just a little bit?

- Sure.

- Then I don't understand.

Why does it have to end?

- I want my life back.

I mean, wherever I go,
people are talking about me.

It's like I've got a disease or something.

- You have to stand up to them.

- I don't want to see
you anymore, it's over.

- Well, I guess you don't love me.

- I do love you.

- No, you don't, not like I love you.

You couldn't, or else you
wouldn't do this to me.

- I don't want to hurt you.

- Then I should just get my shotgun

and blow my brains out.

- Please, don't.

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I love you.

(dramatic music)

Help me.

- Whose house is this?

- Just a friend's.

- Does he know who you're bringing here?

- We have a policy that
works pretty well for us.

Don't ask, don't tell.

- Wait a second, I want a beer.

- You shouldn't drink.

- Well, there's a lot of
things I shouldn't be doing,

but I seem to be doing them, don't I?

I said I want a beer.

- Better?

- What are you doing, you're
going through my stuff?

- Where were you tonight?
- You're invading my privacy?

- Yes, somebody has to protect you!

Where were you tonight?

- Youth group!

- Don't lie to me.

I was there, and you weren't there,

so you tell me where you were.

- Oh, great, now you're
following me around?

- Give me that box!

You were with him, weren't you?

- No!

- Why are you trying to protect him?

- I'm not!

- What has he done to you?

What is he telling you
to make you lie to me?

What are you doing that
I can't know about?

(dramatic music)

Amy, did he kiss you?

(Amy sobs)

What else?

Did he touch you?

Has he...

Did he...

- I'm sorry, Mom.

- [Arnet] All right, yes,
I'll take care of it.

Mhm.

Damn!

(Pete knocks)

- You want to see me?

- If a duck had your brains,

it would fly north for winter.

What the hell were you thinking?

- I don't know what you're talking about.

- Amy Dustin.

- That's a lie.

- She told her parents everything.

They took her to a lawyer,
lawyer took her to the cops,

and the cops are coming for you.

- Whatever she says, it's not true.

- I have to suspend you.

- No!

No, you don't.

- You think I want to?

Middle of the damn season?

- You mean now?

- What else can I do?

- Chuck, at least let
me finish the season.

- Get outta here.

- Men, you're not gonna
win the state championship

if we let this distract us.

It's gonna be tough.

We're gonna miss Coach Nash like hell,

but we've gotta be strong.

But for right now,

there's only thing that matters,

and that's going to State.

And I can tell you,

that's exactly what Coach
Nash would want too.

(dramatic music)

- It ain't right.

It's not fair, Coach.

- [Kid] We're behind
you all the way, Coach.

- 100%, Coach.

- Thanks, guys.

(dramatic music)

(gavel slams)

- [Judge] You're charged
with second degree

felony sexual assault.

How do you plea?

- Guilty, Your Honor.

- [Judge] You're sentenced
to 5 months in jail,

and 10 years probation.

You may no longer coach,

nor even attend athletic events

in which young people are involved.

I remand you to 5 months in
a state detention center.

(gavel slams)

- Mrs. Dustin, I don't understand.

The man has plead guilty
and he's gone to jail.

What exactly is it that you want?

- Well, everybody's acting
like we did something wrong

by coming forward.

Why didn't anybody protect her?

Isn't it their job?

- Whose job?

- The school.

I mean, isn't it their
job to protect children?

They weren't doing their job.

I want to sue the school board.

- Well, she did agree
to have sex with him.

She even snuck out of the house to do it,

and nobody forced her to
sneak out of the house.

- But he was her teacher,

she didn't realize she
had a choice to say no.

- Mrs. Dustin, Amy is
underage, that is true.

But physically, she is a woman.

In India, girls are married by Amy's age.

Hell, Juliet wasn't much older than Amy,

and if she was sneaking out
to see a boy her own age,

you wouldn't have a case.

- [L.V.] I don't know what to say, Norm.

You sure had more than your
share of troubles this year.

- You know, half the men in this town

won't even talk to me anymore?

It's like they blame Amy

for the team's poor showing this season.

What I don't understand

is how the whole darn town
seemed to know about it,

and nobody bothered to tell me.

- Folks knew you were having a hard time,

they wanted to spare you knowing
what your girl was doing.

- Want a refill?

- You make it sound
like it was Amy's fault.

- Well, when these girls
go tittin' up, boy,

anything can happen, huh?

- Hey, that's my daughter
you're talking about, Spowler!

- Take it easy, Norm.

He didn't mean anything by it.

(bell rings)

- [Girl] Thanks, Amy.

- [Girl] Bitch.

- [Girl] Slut.

- Pig.

(cars honk)

- [Girl] He's a grown man.

What could she had been thinking?

- [Man] She's just a slut.

- [Girl] I can't believe
it, it's all so disgusting.

- She let him do it.

They should throw her out.

- Well, she practically
threw herself at him.

- I thought you were
supposed to be my friends.

(dramatic music)

- I heard what they were saying to you,

and I just want to say,

I think you're doing the right thing.

- You're Missy Ross.

- Yeah.

I'm sorry, I've gotta go.

(somber music)

- [Man] Slut!

(tense music)

(kids laughing)

(dog barks)

- Bobby Earle, how dare you!

I'm calling your mom!

- You bastards!

(dog barks)

(tires screech)

- You know, everybody hates me now.

I don't even know why we
had to go through with this

in the first place.

- What, and let that man keep doing

what he was doing to you?

- Oh, Mom, you don't understand.

- Oh, I understand, Amy, believe me.

- No, you don't.

- No, I understand!
- He loves me!

- Loves you?

He doesn't love you!

He picks a different
little girl every year.

He's sick, Amy!

He brags about it to his friends.

He's not man enough to pick a grown woman.

- It's not true, Mom!

- Yes, he takes a child-

- He said that he loves me, Mom-

- No, listen to me, he takes a child

who's too innocent to understand

what he's doing-

- All right, that's enough, that's enough!

We only make it worse if
we turn on each other.

For crying out loud,
the man's gone to jail,

can't we just put this behind us

and get on with our lives

instead of just dragging Amy

from one lawyer to another?

- That man preys on a different
little girl every year.

And everybody just looks the other way!

God, you're her father,

don't you even want to stand up for her?

- Well, I am standing up for her

in the best way I know how.

Why aren't those other
parents coming forward?

- 'Cause they're cowards, that's why.

- Well, you just want to flaunt
Amy's shame all over town.

- It's not her shame!

It's their shame for pretending

like it never happened.

- Just drop it, Betty Ann.

I'm putting my foot down now.

- Oh, God, would you just stop it?

Stop it, just stop fighting!

God, you just...

I can't even talk to you anymore,

all you do is just turn everything around

into your fight.

You don't even care about me anymore.

All you care about is
which one of you is right.

(dramatic music)

(door slams)

- Amy, I'm sorry.

I've just been so angry and guilty

that I've lost sight
of what really matters

in all of this, and that's you.

I've been pushing too hard.

If you want to drop the whole thing,

if you just want to forget about it,

that's what we'll do.

I won't push you.

And I'm behind you no
matter what you decide.

(dramatic music)

- Betty Ann.

If you really think we
should see another lawyer,

then let's just see another lawyer.

Hell, I don't know what's
right or wrong anymore.

- At this point, I don't
know what's right either.

- Honey, I know this has
really been hard on you,

and I haven't made it any easier.

I'm sorry.

- Me too.

- Mom, we better hurry,

or we'll be late for the lawyers.

- [Lawyer] Do you think people knew

what was going on between
you and the lab room?

- I didn't care, why should I?

Everybody thought he was great,

and he had chosen me.

- Was he isolating you from your friends?

- Yes, but...

He made me feel important.

I mean, like I had all the power,

and it was up to me if I used it or not.

- Power to do what?

Were you ever afraid of Mr. Nash?

- He talked to a teacher once

into giving me a good grade.

I knew he could just as
easily have talked her

into giving me a bad one.

- Did you still feel
like you had the power?

- No, but everybody knew by then.

- How'd that make you feel?

- I hated it.

- Tell me again about the first time.

- It was at his house after the concert.

- [Lawyer] And where were you?

- We were in Cassie's room.

- [Lawyer] And where was Cassie?

- She was in another room.

- Okay.

Right then, right there,

with his wife and family down the hall,

did you want to have sex with him?

Why did you?

- [Officer] Second chair, right there.

- Mickey, thanks for coming.

- Yeah, you bet.

You look good.

They treatin' you all right?

- Listen.

You think you can get
this note to Amy for me?

- I can't do that.

- [Pete] Why not?

- I just can't.

- You know what?

Everybody's got this all wrong.

I never meant to hurt that girl.

But the thing of it
is, Mickey, I love her.

I mean, I really do love her.

- She is a child, Pete.

That's not the way you love a child.

Listen, man, I shouldn't of come.

I gotta go.

I'll see you.

- By federal law, school
districts and their officials

aren't responsible for
the acts of the teachers.

- I think the best thing to do

is approach this as a civil rights issue.

A schoolchild has the right
to be free from sexual abuse.

- Now, it won't be easy.

A teacher having sex with a student

hasn't been established

as a specific civil rights violation.

There's no precedent for it.

- But Mrs. Dustin, Tony and I think

we might just be able to set one.

(Betty Ann chuckles)

(lighthearted music)

- Amy.

Hey, are you all right?

- I'm fine.

(dramatic music)

- Honey.

Amy.

Sweetie.

- I'm tired of everybody
knowing what an idiot I was.

"I Loved A Child Molester" by Amy Dustin.

- Honey.

We don't have to do this.

You know, we don't have to.

- Maybe I can help it not
happen to somebody else.

- Oh, Amy.

You keep this up, you're gonna be my hero.

I love you.

- I love you too.
