-Jesus.

[chuckles]

-Mornin', lazy.
-It's 6:30 a.m.

[Coach Hudson] And I've already fished.

I set up a whole Raya profile.

Raya? What are you doing on Raya?

Tricia invited me.

-It is wild.
-Gross.

[Coach Hudson] There's, like,
famous women on there.

How are you feeling?

You're gonna ask me that every day
for the rest of my life?

Just making sure you're ready to be back.

Rick... I got my team, and I've got you.

What I feel is lucky.

Me too.

[exhales softly]

I matched with, uh, Danica Patrick.

[Ricky] [chuckles] Please stop.

It's pretty cool.

Hey, I gotta ask you about Powers.

How's he been with you lately?

Um... normal, I guess.

Yeah, I-I can't pin him down.

Like, every time I get close,
he, like, he ducks me

or says something like,

"What if balloons were afraid of heights?"

Maybe I should ambush him.

[♪ tense music playing]

Like, go to his house.

♪♪

Go to Chad Powers' house?

Yeah.

I don't know, sounds like a weird place.

[Coach Hudson] There's gotta be
a real guy in there, right?

I just catch him off guard,
like, in his natural habitat.

-Huh?
-[slurps]

I mean... you know best, obviously,

but, um, it is bye week,
maybe he'll come around.

♪♪

Bye week, perfect timing.

Good call, Coach.

Going to work. I'll see you there.

I love you, kiddo.

[door opens]

Love you.

[Danny]
It's the biggest party on campus.

The senior cheerleaders throw it
every season on bye week.

That's neat.

It is neat. It's, like,
the reason people go to college.

Regular people.
Basically, anyone but us.

Hi, Chad.

You coming to the party tonight?

Starting QB's always there, you know.
It's tradition.

Ooh. I love tradition.

Judaism.

But I can't tonight
'cause I gotta tend to...

my Venus flytrap.

Too bad, Chad.
But you know what that means?

More pussy for me.

-Gerry, you are the fucking pussy.
-Gerry, you are so fucking nasty.

-Please.
-Shut the fuck up. Goddamn.

-[Sasha] Jesus.
-[Gerry] What?

Chad doesn't have to do
a single thing with the team.

He could say he has a Venus flytrap,

and I'm the weird one...
for being masculine?

How is that fair?

Well, you guys have fun tonight.

I'm gonna have fun too.

Just me and my traps.

Alright.

[students chattering]

[food tray thuds]

[normal voice] What?

Just would be fun to go.

It would be fun.

It would be fun to go to a party as Chad.

That is a death trap.

This is not supposed to be fun.

Trust me, I know.

-[Ricky clears throat]
-Oh.

[Chad voice] Hey, Coach Ricky,
how's it hanging?

Shut up and listen to me.

My dad is going
to ambush you at your house.

[normal voice] What?

He said that Chad
is impossible to pin down

and that every time you're
with him you say dumb bullshit.

What?

And one thing that's so,
uh, great about football

is that-- is how diff--
it's every-- it's different every time.

-Oh, my God.
-I actually agree with that.

I do think it's different every time.

-Did you hear what I said?
-Yeah.

Why is he coming to our house?

He needs to know his quarterback.

He wants you to open up to him.

-When is this happening?
-I don't know.

Today, tomorrow, soon.

He cannot go to the house.
It's the actual Batcave.

We need a lie, maybe fumigation?

-Like, I got a scorpion bite or something.
-[Ricky] No, do not say that.

Oh, my God.
We are here because you always act

so fucking weird all the time.

[whispering] I am a man living inside
the fake skin of another man.

It is a weird situation.

Well, convincing my dad that your pee hole

is the size of a blueberry
isn't gonna cut it anymore.

It's not the size of a blueberry.

If you wanted to know,
it's, like, a normal-sized slit.

-I don't wanna hear about your slit.
-Okay, so what can he do?

There's gotta be something
you can be honest about.

[♪ tense music playing]

[Coach Byrd]
Better not go soft on Powers, Coach.

His ass needs a spankin'.

You want me to do a vigilante spankin'?

No! No.

I'm gonna go to his house.

I don't know, like, surprise him.

Or, like, scare him straight.

-[Chad voice] Hey, Coach.
-Jesus! Hey.

S-- Hi there, Chad.

[Chad]
No, I was just gonna say,

I know I've had some struggles
lately with my mental health,

but the truth is,
being Chad Powers, is hard.

It's really hard.
I feel like I can't slip up.

I can't make mistakes,
but I do make mistakes

because that's the kind of person I am.

And I am a person
no matter what people say.

I-- Even though I don't act like it

and some people don't treat me like it.

I feel things. I feel a lot of things.

In the last couple weeks,
I felt afraid, and that's why I ran.

And that's on me.

But... I'm better now.

And... that's it.

Go fish.

Hey... I appreciate you saying all that.

I know, right? Talking's not hard.

Come on, let's go for a ride.

We'll keep talking.

-[Chad] Keep talking?
-Yeah!

I said everything I wanna say.

Nah, no, I think we're just
getting started. Come on.

Mm-hmm.

More talking.

[commentator 1] [on laptop]
Take a look at this Arkansas defense.

Let's talk about tackling.

-Too many missed tackles have turned...
-[sighs]

...into explosive plays.

And that is now
a recurring theme to this team.

[commentator 2] If you ask me,
that's an issue of coaching...

-[knocks on door]
-[Gerry] Hey, Coach.

Hey, what's up, Gerry?

-You busy?
-No.

Um...

do you mind if we talk in private?

Yeah, this is in private.

-Do you want to sit down?
-Um, I prefer to stand.

You could stand, too, if you want.

No, no, I'm not, I'm not gonna stand.

That's okay.

It'd be better if you were seated.

'Kay, we're off to a good start.

I would like to discuss my future...

and whether there is a place
for me on this team.

[inhales]

Well, that's-that's really more
of a conversation

for Coach Hudson or Coach Byrd.

They don't wanna talk to me.
They're obsessed with Chad Powers.

Everyone's obsessed with Chad Powers.

I saw you talking to him at lunch today.

Yeah, that was about the gameplan.

-It's a bye week.
-The future gameplan.

I wish you all would stop pretending

that a human like that can just... emerge.

[♪ tense music playing]

Gerry, [chuckles] do you know
you've, uh, actually been sort of a...

inspiration to me?

What?

Ignored, invisible,

underestimated.

-I've been there.
-I respect you too.

A woman shouldn't have to work
and you do anyway.

I don't know if it's 'cause
you're a lesbian or--

But you persevered, even on scout team.

You were, you were a great teammate.

Always lifting his guys up,
never tearing them down.

What happened to that Gerry?

Chad Powers happened.

No, you got hurt in a game.
Chad didn't do anything to you.

He took my job.

You can take it right back
if he gets hurt again.

He ruined my life.

Aren't you religious?

Of course I am.

Then fucking forgive him and move on.

What? You too famous to play catch?

Isn't that how that 950 Fat Mac

Throwing the ball with your old man?
Come on!

[claps hands]

I was the OC here earlier in my career.

And this is where Coach Muter
used to have his heart to hearts.

He brought me in here
when I was divorcing Ricky's mom.

I guess, my first divorce.

Ricky was little,

but she heard
way too many grownups yelling.

So, I swore that was it, no more.

[sighs] Then a couple weeks ago,
in front of y'all,

I don't know what the hell happened,

but I feel like...
I let two of my kids down.

[Chad] You-You didn't.

It's not lost on me that
that's where your trouble started.

You shouldn't have been a part of that,

between... Wendy and me.

I... I'm sorry.

[football thwacking]

Well, I'm...

I'm sorry I didn't
come visit the hospital.

Or if I did better
in the interviews, maybe...

-No, no.
-...none of this would've happened.

None of this is your fault!

You got it? None of it.

My mom was who I played catch with.

Really?

Yeah, she was the football parent.

Drove me to practice and all the...

Anyway, she, uh... she died.

She died of cancer.

Not asbestos cancer,

And, uh... well, I think it,

I think it probably
messed me up a... a bit.

You think she'd be proud
of the, the man you've become?

[ball thwacks]

Sort of doubt it.

Why?

I don't really think
I'm that good of a person...

but, um...

I'm trying to get better.

Hey.

Hey. [sighs]

Can you tell us what
the coaches said already?

Uh, yeah, so whatever you talked
to my dad about, it worked.

He told everybody to stand down.

-Really?
-[Ricky] Yeah, really.

He even told Dobbs
to stop calling you I Am Sam.

-Wow.
-Well, just to your face.

He negotiated that he can
still say it behind your back.

So, no ambushes, no house visits?

Coach said that, uh, he may not know
exactly what Chad's been dealing with,

but that he learned
something more important.

Which is what?

That Chad's a real person.

[Danny] Incredible.

This is exactly the sort of thing

you'd wanna celebrate...
by going to a party.

We should go to the bye week party.

What do you think?

It's a risk, but...

I don't know,

Just doing my part to avoid
the worst scandal in sports history.

And to win a national championship.

You don't think we can win with Gerry?

Speaking of, you need

You need to get him back on Chad's side.

I know. [sighs]

And you need to maintain
this relationship with my dad.

I know. And [sighs] I gotta cook

I gotta wash the wigs,

Really, really good.

It sucks what happened to you.

I mean, it didn't happen to me.

Oh, wow, so evolved.

Is that thanks to Chad?

Maybe.

Or maybe some coach
finally figured me out.

Dobbs.

Yeah, Dobbs.

to be at any player's house?

But this house...

So why are you here?

I don't know.
