MAN: TOLD YOUR MOM
THE SAME THING.

SPENCER: COACH HUDSON?
HUDSON, CHUCKLING: YES, SIR.

-GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, SPENCER.
-I'M SORRY I KEPT YOU WAITING.

IF I'D HAVE KNOWN YOU WAS
FLYING IN FROM TOLEDO-- HUDSON: OH, NO, NO.

APOLOGY'S ALL MINE.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT

EXACTLY PROTOCOL
FOR THE HEAD COACH TO SHOW UP UNANNOUNCED,

BUT...YOU'RE NO
ORDINARY PLAYER.

GRACE: I'LL GIVE
YOU TWO A MOMENT TO TALK. SPENCER: OH, NO, STAY, MA.

YEAH, I'LL KEEP IT BRIEF
SO YOU CAN GET TO WHAT YOUR MAMA'S GOT COOKING.

YOU SURE YOU
DON'T WANT A PLATE?

NO, MA'AM, THANK YOU.
I'M--I'M GOOD WITH COFFEE.

SPENCER,

I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA
DO GREAT THINGS AT TOLEDO STATE,

AND I HAVE BIG PLANS FOR YOU.
SPENCER: THANK YOU, SIR,

BUT SINCE ALL THAT
COULD HAVE BEEN SAID ON A CALL,

I'M GUESSING YOU
GOT MORE TO SAY?

COACH DANTE
WAS RIGHT ABOUT YOU. QUICK ON YOUR FEET.

HOW WOULD YOU
LIKE TO START FOR ME AS A TRUE FRESHMAN?

I KNOW YOU GOT WHAT
IT TAKES, BUT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO COME

AND PLAY FOR ME THIS SPRING
TO GET UP TO SPEED.

UH, WELL, THAT'S GREAT, SIR,
BUT ISN'T...SPRING NOW?

OH, OUR SPRING SEMESTER
DOESN'T START FOR A COUPLE WEEKS.

AS IN TWO WEEKS
FROM TODAY?

COACH, I AIN'T EVEN
GRADUATED YET.

WELL, LUCKY
FOR BOTH OF US,

YOU'RE JUST AS GOOD
IN THE CLASSROOM AS YOU ARE ON THE FIELD.

GRACE: YOU ALREADY GOT ALL
THE CREDITS YOU NEED.

PRINCIPAL CARTER
AND COACH BAKER

ALREADY APPROVE
EARLY GRADUATION

IF THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT YOU WANT TO DO.

HUDSON: NOW, I--I
UNDERSTAND THIS IS

A LOT TO PROCESS,
SO TAKE A BEAT.

I'M NOT HEADING BACK
TO CAMPUS TILL TOMORROW,

SO YOU CAN GIVE ME
YOUR ANSWER BEFORE I LEAVE IN THE MORNING.

OK. THANK YOU, SIR.

[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]

BILLY: OOH. HEH HEH!
JORDAN: YEAH.

[MUSIC CONTINUES]

[CHEERING AND MUSIC FADE]

WOW!

THAT WAS
SOME FOOTBALL RIGHT THERE.

I'M VERY
IMPRESSED, SON.

- BUT IF YOU WERE
A D1 RECRUITER? - BUT NOTHING.

IT'S ALL THERE--
FOOTWORK,

ANTICIPATION,
YOUR FEEL FOR THE POCKET. I MEAN, YOU

SEND THIS OUT, YOU'RE
GONNA HAVE RECRUITERS BANGING DOWN YOUR DOOR.

WELL, MONTES
AND I SENT IT OUT TO JUST ABOUT

EVERY NCAA FOOTBALL
PROGRAM IN THE STATE.

OK, THAT'S GOOD.
I LIKE THE INITIATIVE.

THANK YOU, BUT, UM...

I--I JUST HAVEN'T GOTTEN
A SINGLE RESPONSE, AND IT'S

BEEN TWO--TWO WEEKS.
BILLY: YOU KNOW, HIGHLIGHTS,

THEY ONLY TELL
HALF THE STORY, AND RECRUITERS, THEY WANT

TO SEE YOU WITH THEIR
OWN EYES, PLUS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM

ARE GONNA BE
AT THE PLATINUM ALL-AMERICAN GAME.

WHICH WOULD BE GREAT, IF I
WAS ACTUALLY GONNA PLAY.

- J.
- DAD, COME ON.

I'M THE FIFTH QUARTERBACK
ON THE DEPTH CHART,

ALL RIGHT? I DON'T
EVEN KNOW IF THE COACH IS GONNA LET ME SEE THE FIELD.

I'M PRETTY SURE
SHE'S GONNA PLAY YOU.

"SHE"? WAIT, WAIT.
IS COACH MONTES--

COACH MONTES JUST
GOT NAMED COACH

FOR THE WESTERN
CONFERENCE TEAM. JORDAN: WHAT?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
YOU'RE KIDDING ME, RIGHT? WAIT, WAIT.

SO WAIT. THAT MEANS
I'M PROBABLY ACTUALLY

GONNA PLAY, RIGHT?
BILLY: PROBABLY.

I MEAN, WE KNOW MONTES
DOESN'T PLAY FAVORITES--

BUT'S IT'S WORTH ASKING
HER WHAT HER PLANS ARE

AND LETTING HER KNOW
THAT YOU'LL BE READY TO PLAY THE LIGHTS OUT

WHEN SHE CALLS YOUR NUMBER.
JORDAN: HELL YES, I'M GONNA

PLAY THE LIGHTS OUT!
OH, MY GOD! WOW! [BILLY LAUGHS]

WAIT. SO HOW DID--HOW DID
MONTES GET THE JOB?

WELL, HER TEAM WON
THE STATE TITLE.

HEY, LOOK,

SHE'S A HELL OF
A COACH, AND SHE EARNED IT.

NO, NO, NO, DAD.
I MEAN, DAD, WE WON ON A BAD CALL.

SOUTH CRENSHAW
REALLY WON THAT GAME.

THE STATE TITLE
SHOULD BE YOURS.

THE ALL-AMERICAN
COACHING GIG SHOULD BE YOURS.

LOOK, I'M NOT GONNA LIE;
I WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO COACH YOU

ONE MORE TIME, BUT, UH,
IF IT AIN'T GONNA BE ME,

I'M JUST GLAD IT'S
SOMEBODY THAT KNOWS WHAT YOU CAN DO OUT THERE.

GO, GET OUT OF HERE.

GO TALK TO YOUR COACH.

[CHUCKLES]
OK.

[CHUCKLES]

MONTES: I AM SORRY
COASTAL CALIFORNIA

OFFICIALLY RESCINDED
YOUR SCHOLARSHIP,

BUT IT'S GOOD
TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE STILL GONNA

HONOR ACCEPTANCE
TO THE UNIVERSITY.

[SIGHS]
YEAH.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S
A SURPRISE.

I CAN'T REALLY PLAY
WITH MY HEART CONDITION.

I KNOW YOU WERE LOOKING
FOR A FULL SCHOLARSHIP,

BUT THERE ARE GRANTS,
FINANCIAL AID--

LOOK, I APPRECIATE IT,
COACH, BUT WITHOUT FOOTBALL,

COASTAL DOESN'T REALLY
FEEL LIKE THE RIGHT FIT FOR ME ANYMORE.

- SO WHAT'S YOUR PLAN B?
- I'M WORKING ON IT.

LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE ALREADY
WORKING ON NEXT SEASON,

SO I'LL LET YOU GET BACK TO IT.
MONTES: UH, ACTUALLY,

IT'S FOR
THE PLATINUM ALL-AMERICAN GAME.

I'M GONNA BE
COACHING THE WESTERN CONFERENCE TEAM.

[CHUCKLES]
WOW.

THAT'S GREAT, COACH.
CONGRATS.

YOU WANT TO HELP ME
ON THE SIDELINES?

LOOK, I KNOW
THAT JORDAN AND SPENCER JAMES

WOULD BE HAPPY TO HAVE
YOU THERE, AND I WOULD LOVE YOUR INSIGHT.

I REALLY APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'RE DOING, COACH,

BUT BEING THIS CLOSE
TO FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW,

IT JUST HURTS A LITTLE BIT
TOO MUCH, YOU KNOW?

GOOD LUCK, THOUGH.

[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING
THROUGH HEADPHONES]

[SIGHS, SETS DOWN
HEADPHONES, TEXTS]

YOU DON'T GOT
TO KEEP BLOWING UP MY PHONE AFTER I SAID I WAS COMING.

- YOU SAID
YOU'D BE HERE FIRST THING. - I BEEN UNLOADING TRUCKS

AT PARKSIDE GROCERIES
ALL NIGHT, SO HOW 'BOUT

A "THANKS FOR COMING"
OR AT LEAST A CUP OF COFFEE?

HELP YOURSELF.
I'M SORRY YOU HAD A LONG NIGHT.

I'M ONLY HOUNDING YOU
BECAUSE WE HAVE AN ALBUM TO FINISH,

AND EVERY TIME I BOOK
STUDIO TIME, COOP HAS

AN EXCUSE FOR WHY
SHE CAN'T MAKE IT.

I ONLY NEED
HER VOCALS ON A COUPLE MORE TRACKS

AND THE ALBUM
WILL BE DONE, AND AS HER MANAGER,

I NEED YOU TO HELP ME
WITH THAT.

- I'LL TELL HER TO
CHECK IN WITH YOU. - DO BETTER.

NEED I REMIND YOU
THAT 10% OF NOTHING IS NOTHING?

YOU AIN'T GOTTA
REMIND ME OF JACK.

A LOT'S CHANGED
SINCE COOP GOT SHOT.

WELL, NOT JUST
FOR HER.

[SIGHS]

I KNOW SHE'S BEEN
HELPING YOU WITH AMINA

WHILE YOU
PICK UP SHIFTS.

ONCE THE ALBUM IS
DONE, I RESCHEDULE THE VEGAS DATES,

YOU GO BACK TO MAKING
MORE MONEY. YOU WON'T HAVE TO WORK NIGHTS.

I'M JUST SAYING,

COOP MIGHT NEED
A LITTLE TIME BEFORE GETTING BACK INTO IT.

AS SOMEONE WHO'S
DEALT WITH TRAUMA IN MY OWN LIFE,

I THINK GETTING COOP
BACK TO DOING WHAT SHE LOVES

MIGHT BE WHAT'S
BEST FOR HER,

EVEN IF IT MEANS US
PUSHING HER THERE.

SPENCER: MOVING EARLY
WASN'T SOMETHING I EVER REALLY CONSIDERED,

BUT IT'S A PRETTY BIG
OPPORTUNITY.

"BIG"? SPENCER,
THIS IS--THIS IS HUGE.

AND, I MEAN, TO HAVE
THE HEAD COACH MAKE THE INVITE IN PERSON?

HE'S GOT PLANS
FOR YOU.

I FORGET YOU'RE
A COACH'S DAUGHTER SOMETIMES.

HEH HEH HEH!

COACH HUDSON SAYS I
GOT A CHANCE TO START AS A TRUE FRESHMAN.

SPENCER,
THIS IS AMAZING.

WHAT DID
COACH DANTE SAY?

NOTHING...YET.

I LEFT HIM
A VOICEMAIL.

I'M HOPING HE GETS BACK
TO ME BEFORE I GOT TO GIVE COACH HUDSON MY ANSWER.

- YOU HAVEN'T SAID YES?
- I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU FIRST.

THIS KIND OF CHANGES
OUR SENIOR YEAR PLANS.

THAT WAS REALLY SWEET,

BUT YOU WOULD
BE CRAZY NOT TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY.

I KNOW.

[SIGHS]

I GUESS THIS MEANS YOU'RE
LEAVING IN TWO WEEKS.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH.

IT'S JUST WE WAITED SO LONG
TO BE TOGETHER, AND NOW--

WE STILL GOT THE TWO WEEKS,

AND I'M GONNA MAKE THE MOST
OF EVERY MINUTE I GOT LEFT WITH YOU, GIRL...

STARTING TONIGHT.

[CHUCKLING]
WHAT'S TONIGHT?

- YOU'LL SEE.
- HEH HEH! OK.

[CHUCKLES]

BILLY: HEY THERE.
BOY: COACH BAKER.

SPENCER: COACH.

SPENCER...

CLEANING OUT ALREADY, HUH?
SPENCER: YEAH.

I HEARD YOU SIGNED OFF
ON MY EARLY ENROLLMENT AT TOLEDO.

THANKS.

WELL, YOU, UH,
YOU WORKED HARD FOR THIS, SO...

[SIGHS]
SPENCER: ALL RIGHT, I'LL LET YOU GET BACK TO IT.

OH, SO YOU AIN'T
FEELING THE MONKEY BARS TODAY OR WHAT?

THERE AREN'T
ANY MONKEY BARS.

WHAT?
WHEN'D THAT HAPPEN?

WHY DID YOU
AND MY MOM GET SHOT?

DID Y'ALL DO SOMETHING BAD
OR WAS IT BECAUSE OF MY DAD?

- WHY WOULD YOU THINK ALL THAT?
- I KNOW Y'ALL GOT SHOT

THE SAME NIGHT, FIGURED
YOU MIGHT KNOW WHY.

[CLEARS THROAT]

- HEY, DADDY.
- HEY, BABY GIRL.

MMM!

NOW, LET ME TALK TO COOP ALONE
FOR A SECOND, ALL RIGHT?

OK.

MAN, TALK ABOUT
PERFECT TIMING.

SHE BE JUST PRESSING ME
ABOUT WHY MO GOT SHOT.

- LET ME WORRY ABOUT AMINA.
- MAN, DID YOU NOT HEAR ME, BRO?

WE GOT PROBLEMS.
THIS AIN'T ONE

OF THEM THINGS THAT'S
JUST GONNA GO AWAY.

AND IF SHE DON'T
GET ANSWERS FROM US, THEN SHE'S GONNA GO

LOOKING ON HER OWN.
PREACH: AIN'T NO "US," COOP.

AMINA'S MY RESPONSIBILITY,
YOU HEAR?

AND WHEN YOU GONNA
COME CLEAN TO LAYLA ABOUT QUITTING MUSIC?

IS THAT WHAT THIS IS
ALL ABOUT? I WILL.

WHEN? 'CAUSE I DON'T
APPRECIATE BEING SUMMONED

TO HER DAMN STUDIO
AND LYING TO HER FACE.

LOOK, I'LL DEAL
WITH LAYLA, ALL RIGHT?

IT AIN'T LIKE I HAVEN'T
BEEN BUSY, HERE HELPING YOU WITH AMINA,

UNLESS YOU GOT
SOMEBODY ELSE WHO OFFER A FREE DAYCARE.

OH, SO YOU BUSY?
'CAUSE I'M A SINGLE DAD,

PULLING NIGHT SHIFTS
PROVIDING FOR MY DAUGHTER,

AND SOMEHOW I STILL
FOUND THE TIME

TO TALK TO LAYLA
ABOUT YOUR CONTRACT.

HOW ABOUT YOU TAKE CARE
OF YOUR OWN DAMN PROBLEMS

AND STOP MAKING 'EM
MINE, COOP?

[SCOFFS]

I GET IT.

I GET IT.

I'M THE REASON YOUR LIFE'S
SO MESSED UP RIGHT NOW,

THE REASON ALL OF A SUDDEN
YOU A SINGLE DAD,

AND THE REASON
YOU GOT TO GO OUT AND FIND ANOTHER SOURCE OF INCOME.

- THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.
- THEN WHAT DID YOU MEAN?

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

HOW 'BOUT I JUST
DO US BOTH A FAVOR AND STAY OUT OF YOUR LIFE?

HERE.

YOU OUT OF AMINA'S
SNACKS FOR LUNCH,

AND SHE NEED
A NEW TOOTHBRUSH.

NURSE JOY:
YOU WORRIED ABOUT SPENCER LEAVING?

- NO. I'M EXCITED FOR HIM.
- OH, I KNOW YOU ARE,

BUT THE LAST TIME
THAT YOU FELT LIKE EVERYONE

WAS MOVING ON
WITHOUT YOU, YOU RELAPSED.

YOU CAN BE BOTH EXCITED
FOR HIM AND WORRIED FOR YOUR SOBRIETY.

I GUESS THIS TIME FEELS
DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW,

MAYBE I FEEL
DIFFERENT, STRONGER.

THAT'S GOOD! HEH!

ATTA GIRL! OK.

WELL, THEN, WHAT IS
ON YOUR MIND?

ARE YOU IN
A RELATIONSHIP?

THIS IS ABOUT
SOBRIETY, I PROMISE.

AYANNA AND I HAVE BEEN
TOGETHER FOR 5 YEARS.

NOW YOU WANT
TO TELL ME WHY YOU'RE ALL UP IN MY BUSINESS?

OK.

BEING IN RECOVERY...

WAS WAITING TO SLEEP
TOGETHER AN ISSUE?

BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT I
WANTED, YOU KNOW, TO WAIT UNTIL I WAS 90 DAYS SOBER,

BUT NOW THAT HE'S LEAVING
BEFORE THAT, I JUST-- NURSE JOY: HOLD ON.

ARE YOU SURE THIS IS
ABOUT SOBRIETY?

YOU MEAN THE THING
ABOUT 90 DAYS?

OK. WISE-ASS COMMENT
REDACTED. I'M SORRY. NURSE JOY: MM-HMM.

PEOPLE IN RECOVERY,
THEY HAVE A WAY

OF PUTTING NUMBERS
ON EVERYTHING,

AND IT'S HELPFUL
WITH A LOT OF THINGS,

BUT FOR YOU, THIS
AIN'T ONE OF 'EM.

I'VE HOOKED UP
WITH MY BOYFRIENDS BEFORE, YOU KNOW,

BUT THIS TIME,
IT JUST FEELS...

I DON'T KNOW, I'M JUST
KINDA FREAKING OUT.

I DON'T KNOW. SO IF
IT'S NOT MY SOBRIETY, THEN WHAT IS IT?

YOU ARE FREAKING OUT

BECAUSE IT'S SPECIAL.

TWO DAYS, 90 DAYS,

WHATEVER,
YOU'RE STILL GONNA BE NERVOUS

BECAUSE WHAT YOU
AND SPENCER HAVE, IT'S REAL.

IT'S IMPORTANT.

IT'S LOVE.

AND--HEH HEH!--YES,

THAT'S THE WAY IT
FELT WITH AYANNA.

SO HOW DO I KNOW WHEN
THE TIME IS RIGHT?

YOU KNOW
WHEN YOU KNOW,

AND NOBODY ELSE IS
GONNA KNOW BUT YOU.

NOW, SPENCER,

HE'S NOT
PRESSURING YOU, IS HE?

- NO. NO, NOT AT ALL.
- OK. GOOD.

[CLEARS THROAT]
ACTUALLY, WAIT.

WELL...WHY HASN'T HE?
IS THAT WEIRD?

OK, CHILD, YOU KNOW
WHAT? I'MMA LET YOU DEAL WITH THAT,

AND I'M GONNA GET ON OUT
'CAUSE Y'ALL'S DRAMA IS GONNA GIVE ME A MIGRAINE.

COME ON.

[SIGHS]
HEH!

GRACE: ARE YOU SURE
THIS THE RIGHT PLACE?

SPENCER: YES, IT'S RIGHT
ACROSS FROM THAT PUTT-PUTT PLACE WE USED TO GO TO.

LOOK, THE OUTSIDE'S
KIND OF LOW-PROFILE, BUT KEEP SCROLLING.

AH.
GRACE: SPENCER JAMES.

- HEH HEH! THERE YOU GO.
- THAT IS QUITE THE DATE NIGHT.

YOU ARE REALLY
PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS FOR MISS OLIVIA BAKER.

I WANT IT TO BE SPECIAL.

SPENCER JAMES,

I HAVEN'T SEEN A GIRL
PUT HEAT ON YOUR CHEEKS

LIKE THAT
SINCE MIDDLE SCHOOL.

WHAT CAN I SAY, MOM?

SHE'S SPECIAL.
THAT'S WHY TONIGHT'S GOT TO BE PERFECT.

CAN'T BELIEVE YOU
ONLY GOT A COUPLE WEEKS LEFT.

YEAH, ME, NEITHER.

YOU THINK YOU'RE
READY FOR THIS?

YEAH, I AM.

QUESTION IS, ARE YOU?

HEH!
I'LL NEVER BE READY

TO HAND OVER
MY FIRST BABY,

BUT YOU WERE
GONNA LEAVE L.A. SOONER OR LATER.

IT'S THE RIGHT STEP,
MOM, AND I'M EXCITED,

BUT UNTIL I LEAVE,
I'M ENJOYING MY PEOPLE.

[SIGHS]

OK. WELL...

YOU AND OLIVIA HAVE
A GOOD NIGHT.

[DISHES CLINKING]

YOU KNOW, IT'S A WHILE
BEFORE MY RESERVATION,

SO WHAT'S IT
GONNA BE?

ICE CREAM?

MAYBE A CHEESE PLATE
IF YOU'RE FEELING FANCY?

[CHUCKLES]
I'M THINKING MAYBE...

I'M FEELING LIKE
WHUPPING YOUR TAIL AT PUTT-PUTT LIKE I USED TO.

OH, THAT'S SOME BIG TALK,
CONSIDERING YOU AIN'T PLAYED ME SINCE I WAS DILLON'S AGE.

YOU WANT A SHOT
AT THE TITLE?

- YOU--YOU FOR REAL?
- OH, YOU--YEAH--YOU.

- LET'S DO IT, LET'S DO IT.
- LET'S GO. LET'S GO.

- THAT'S THE SAME OLD MOM.
- WHAT YOU WAITING ON?

SPENCER: HA HA HA!

MONTES: I CAN'T MAKE
ANY PROMISES, BAKER.

LOOK, COACH, COACH,
EVEN JUST A SERIES.

I KNOW THAT YOU GOT
TO WORK THE DEPTH CHART AND EVERYTHING, BUT--

BUT JUST A SERIES
WOULD BE GREAT.

I WILL DO MY BEST
TO PUT YOU ON THE FIELD IN THE SECOND HALF.

REALLY? UM, LOOK,
I'M--I'M SORRY.

I'M SORRY. LOOK,
I DON'T MEAN TO BE PRESSURING YOU

INTO GIVING ME
MORE PLAYING TIME OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

THAT'S NOT IT, BAKER.
I'M JUST NOT SURE

THERE'S ANYTHING YOU CAN
DO ON THE FIELD TO BRING IN THE OFFERS YOU WANT.

COACH, WHAT--WHAT MORE
COULD RECRUITERS WANT THAN TO WATCH ME

CARVE UP SOME
OF THE BEST HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS IN THE COUNTRY?

SIT DOWN, BAKER.

JORDAN, IT'S NOT
YOUR TALENT KEEPING THE OFFERS AWAY.

IT'S YOUR MEDICALS.

NO, UM, CONCUSSIONS
AREN'T UNCOMMON, COACH.

WELL, YOU'VE HAD
TWO CONCUSSIONS IN THE SAME SEASON,

AND THE SECOND ONE
LANDED YOU IN THE HOSPITAL.

THE D1 COACHES THAT
I'VE TALKED TO SAID

THEY CAN'T RISK
A ROSTER SPOT ON A PLAYER

THEY FEEL WON'T
LAST A FULL YEAR.

I'M SORRY, JORDAN.

OK.

SPENCER: JUST A BALL
IN THE HOLE, SPENCE.

JUST A BALL IN THE HOLE.
GRACE: AHEM.

[SIGHS]

GRACE: AH!
♪ QUEEN STAYS CLEAN

♪ AH AH AH AH AH

- HEH HEH! YEAH, OK, OK.
- HA HA HA!

GOOD GAME, GOOD GAME.
GET ALL YOUR GLOATING OUT NOW

'CAUSE YOU ONLY GOT
A COUPLE WEEKS TO DO IT.

OH, I CAN ABSOLUTELY
GLOAT IN TEXTS.

HEH!

SO, WHAT DID BILLY
HAVE TO SAY ABOUT YOUR BIG NEWS?

NOT MUCH.

"CONGRATS," YOU KNOW?

WHAT IS GOING ON
WITH YOU TWO?

NOTHING. IT'S FINE.

SPENCER ALONZO JAMES.

DAMN. NOT MY WHOLE
GOVERNMENT NAME.

MM-HMM.

STUFF AIN'T
THE SAME WITH COACH SINCE HE FOUND OUT

I WAS TRAINING
JORDAN BEFORE HE WAS CLEARED.

- YOU APOLOGIZED
FOR THAT ALREADY. - I DID, MORE THAN ONCE.

I DON'T KNOW. IT'S LIKE
YOU ALWAYS SAY...

SOMETIMES PEOPLE
ARE JUST MEANT TO BE IN YOUR LIFE FOR A SEASON.

I TOLD YOU THAT SO YOU COULD
GET OVER THAT LITTLE FAST ASS CHANEL IN EIGHTH GRADE.

HEH! WELL, REGARDLESS,
COACH BAKER AND I WERE JUST A PLAYER AND A COACH.

JUST PLAYER AND COACH?

SINCE WHEN?

IT WAS HIS WORDS, MA,
NOT MINE.

NOW, I JUST WANT
TO SPEND THE REST OF MY TIME WITH

THE PEOPLE THAT WANT
TO BE WITH ME.

I CAN'T HELP
IF COACH BAKER AIN'T ONE OF THEM NO MORE.

[SIGHS]

[BACKGROUND POP MUSIC
PLAYING]

- THANKS.
- [INDISTINCT SINGING]

[ASHER SIGHS]

LAYLA: YOU STARE AT
THAT SCREEN HARD ENOUGH,

THAT PAPER MIGHT
JUST WRITE ITSELF.

IT'S A COLLEGE ESSAY,
ACTUALLY.

- I THOUGHT YOU WERE
DONE WITH THOSE. - I WAS,

BUT NOW I'M NOT.

I HAVE TO WRITE
ABOUT A PASSION SO MEANINGFUL

THAT I WOULDN'T BE
THE SAME WITHOUT IT,

AND I'M JUST...
BLANK.

I'M GUESSING YOU DON'T WANT
TO WRITE ABOUT FOOTBALL.

NO, FOOTBALL'S
DONE FOR ME.

I GOT TO FIGURE OUT
WHAT'S NEXT.

OK, FULL DISCLOSURE,
I AM SO IMPRESSED

WITH HOW YOU'VE BEEN
HANDLING THIS, LIKE,

THE OLD ASHER WOULD
HAVE BEEN IN TOTAL SELF-DESTRUCT MODE.

TRUST ME, I HAD
MY MOMENTS, BUT THEN

I REMEMBER THAT
SELF-DESTRUCTIVE CRAP IS WHAT GOT ME HERE.

IF I HADN'T TAKEN
STEROIDS, MY HEART

WOULD BE FINE, AND...

IT'S A TOUGH LESSON
TO LEARN.

YEAH, BUT YOU LEARNED IT.
THAT'S WHAT MATTERS.

LAYLA,
IN THE LAST 18 MONTHS,

I LOST MY FIRST LOVE,
MY DREAM

OF PLAYING AT COASTAL,
FOOTBALL FOREVER.

I THINK I'M GOOD
ON LESSONS LEARNED.

OK. THAT'S IT.
WE NEED A BREAK.

- LAYLA, I GOT TO FINISH.
- NO, NOT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
FIGURE OUT YOUR FUTURE

OR THAT PAPER
RIGHT THIS MINUTE, SO YOU'RE COMING WITH ME.

- OK, BOSSY MUCH?
- OK, STAND UP, LET'S GO.

- ALL RIGHT.
- YOU CAN WATCH ME TRY TO

SIGN AN ARTIST THAT'S
ALREADY REJECTED ME TWICE,

SO IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.

ALL RIGHT.

JORDAN: I KNEW THAT
MY CONCUSSIONS WOULD BE RED FLAGS, OK,

BUT, LIKE, SERIOUSLY?
THE ENTIRE NCAA IS WRITING ME OFF?

- YEAH.
- COME ON!

PROTOCOLS ARE GETTING
MORE AND MORE STRICT

AND, UM, TECHNICALLY
IT'S A GOOD THING.

NOT FOR YOU.
I'M SORRY, SON.

BUT, YOU KNOW,
THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS.

DAD, MONTES BASICALLY
SAID THAT EVERY SINGLE

SCHOOL I SUBMITTED TO
WASN'T INTERESTED.

WOULD YOU EVER
CONSIDER PLAYING FOR A JUNIOR COLLEGE?

DAD, MY DREAM IS
TO PLAY UNDERNEATH THE BRIGHT LIGHTS,

RIGHT?
A BOWL GAME.

I'M NOT SUGGESTING YOU
GIVE UP ON THAT DREAM.

I'M JUST SAYING THIS
COULD BE ANOTHER WAY TO GET YOU THERE.

- RIGHT.
- LOOK, WITH A JUCO PROGRAM,

YOU'D PROBABLY
START RIGHT AWAY.

COUPLE OF YEARS,
PUT UP SOME GOOD NUMBERS,

CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH,
EVERY D1 SCHOOL

IN THE NATION WILL PROBABLY
GIVE YOU A SECOND LOOK,

YOU TRANSFER, BOOM,
THEN YOU GOT YOUR DREAM.

AND YOU THINK THIS
IS MY BEST CHANCE?

I DO, YEAH.

LOOK, JUST SLEEP
ON IT, AT LEAST.

I DON'T NEED TO.

I'M IN.
BILLY: THAT FAST?

LOOK, DAD, I CAME
TO YOU BECAUSE I WANTED YOUR ADVICE,

AND IF YOU THINK
JUCO WILL GET ME TO WHERE I WANT TO BE,

I TRUST YOU.

- ALL RIGHT. MY MAN.
- GREAT.

GRACE: BILLY BAKER!
YOU AND I NEED TO TALK.

YO, MAN, YOU HAVE
GOT TO SEND ME

ALL THE TOLEDO SWAG
THAT AIN'T TIED DOWN.

- HEH HEH!
- I'M TALKING HOODIES, HATS. WHAT ELSE THEY GOT?

UH, HOW 'BOUT A SCARF?

- MAN, WHAT I'MMA DO
WITH A SCARF IN L.A.? - AND WHAT IF YOU CAME WITH ME?

WHAT YOU MEAN,
LIKE, TO VISIT?

NAH, I MEAN MORE
LIKE TO STAY.

- ME, MOVE TO KANSAS?
- OK, IT'S OHIO.

YEAH, WHATEVER IT IS,
MAN, AIN'T NOTHING FOR ME THERE.

MY LIFE IS HERE.
SPENCER: OK, GOOD

'CAUSE FOR A SECOND,
I THOUGHT YOU FORGOT THAT.

YOU BEEN REAL BUSY
PUSHING AWAY

YOUR PRODUCER,
YOUR MANAGER, YOUR GIRLFRIEND.

YO, HOW WE GET ON
WORRYING ABOUT ME AND MY GIRL?

WHAT YOU NEED TO BE WORRIED
ABOUT IS YOUR BIG DATE TONIGHT WITH YOUR GIRL.

I TOLD YOU I BOOKED
A RESERVATION.

NO, FANCY DINNERS IS
THE BARE MINIMUM.

YOU WANT IT
TO BE SPECIAL, RIGHT?

YOU GOT TO THINK
ABOUT WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN AFTER THAT,

OR DURING, IF THE
BATHROOM'S GOT LOCKS. I'M JUST SAYING--

- ALL RIGHT, CHILL, COOP. DAMN.
- WHAT?

YOU AND LIV AIN'T INTO
THE WHOLE PUBLIC THING?

HEY, I'M NOT TALKING
ABOUT THIS.

[SNIFFS]
COOP: WAIT...

- [SIGHS]
- Y'ALL AIN'T DID THE NASTY, HUH?

[CHUCKLING]
WHY YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?

BECAUSE, BRO,
YOU LOOK MORE NERVOUS

THAN A VIRGIN
ON PROM NIGHT ALL OF A SUDDEN.

WHAT Y'ALL
WAITING FOR?

OH, WHAT, YOU CAN BE
IN MY BUSINESS AND I CAN'T BE IN YOURS?

[CHUCKLING]
THAT AIN'T THE SAME AND YOU KNOW IT.

YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH
A LOT RECENTLY, COOP.

DON'T LET ME LEAVE
WITHOUT KNOWING YOU GOT

THE PEOPLE YOU NEED
TO SEE YOU THROUGH.

YOU KNOW, IT HURTS TO SEE
WHAT MY DECISIONS ARE DOING TO PREACH'S LIFE.

- COOP.
- NO, I'M NOT TRYING TO

BLAME MYSELF AND ALL THAT,
JUST CAUSE AND EFFECT.

ONCE I TELL LAYLA
I QUIT MUSIC, THINGS GONNA CHANGE FOR HER, TOO.

IT'S ALREADY CHANGED
FOR LAYLA. SHE JUST DON'T KNOW IT YET.

AND YOU'RE PUSHING
AWAY A REAL FRIEND

JUST TO HOLD
ON TO SOMETHING THAT'S ALREADY GONE.

THIS IS SO HARD,
TO SAY THE WORDS "I QUIT," SPENCE.

BUT YOU'RE RIGHT.

I'LL WORK IT OUT
WITH PREACH AND LAYLA.

AND YOU DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT ME

CALLING YOUR
"COME TO TOLEDO" BLUFF.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]
SPENCER: GOOD,

'CAUSE YOU WASN'T
GONNA LIKE SLEEPING ON MY DORM FLOOR.

- MAN, WHATEVER.
- HEH HEH HEH!

BILLY: ALL I'M SAYING
IS YOU DIDN'T HAVE

TO RUN JORDAN OFF.
GRACE: I DIDN'T RUN HIM OFF.

MY GUESS IS HE DIDN'T WANT
TO SEE HIS FATHER GET HIS ASS HANDED TO HIM.

- OH, HO! IS THAT WHAT THIS IS?
- YOU HAVE

ALWAYS BEEN MORE THAN
A COACH TO SPENCER, AND YOU KNOW THAT.

[SIGHS]

SO HE TOLD YOU.

LOOK, I WAS ANGRY.

IT SEEMS LIKE
YOU STILL ARE.

HE MADE A MISTAKE, BILLY.
- [SIGHS]

DO I NEED TO RUN DOWN
THE LIST OF ALL THE DUMB MISTAKES YOU MADE?

- OK.
- THAT WE BOTH MADE?

STARTING WITH HAVING
AN AFFAIR THAT ALMOST DESTROYED TWO FAMILIES!

AND HE FORGAVE US
FOR THAT.

YOU'RE A BETTER MAN
THAN THIS, BILLY,

SO PLEASE TELL ME
SOMETHING THAT MAKES SOME DAMN SENSE!

OK. THIS IS NOT
ABOUT SPENCER TRAINING JORDAN,

NOT ANYMORE.

[SIGHS]
SHOOT.

I DON'T KNOW
IF IT EVER WAS.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

[SIGHS]

IT'S ABOUT ME...GRACE.

I THINK IT WAS EASIER
BEING ANGRY

AT SPENCER THAN IT WAS
TO ADMIT...

THAT I...FAILED MY SON.

SPENCER'S TRAINING
CHANGED JORDAN.

HE'S PLAYING THE
BEST BALL OF HIS LIFE.

HE'S IN THERAPY.
WE'RE GOOD.

HE--HEH!--RIGHT BEFORE
YOU BARGED IN,

HE ACTUALLY SAID
THAT HE TRUSTED ME.

- THOSE SOUND LIKE GOOD THINGS.
- YEAH, BUT NONE OF IT

WOULD HAVE HAPPENED
WITHOUT SPENCER.

JORDAN WAS SPIRALING,
AND...

I DON'T KNOW.
I WAS TOO BUSY TO EVEN NOTICE.

AND YOU'RE MAKING THINGS
RIGHT WITH JORDAN NOW,

AND THAT'S GOOD.

NOW MAKE 'EM RIGHT
WITH SPENCER, TOO.

HOW,

WHEN I--I BROKE
WHAT SPENCER AND I HAD, AND...

HOW DO I EVEN BEGIN
TO BUILD IT BACK?

BY REMEMBERING
THAT SHAME

AIN'T NEARLY
AS STRONG AS FAMILY.

DON'T LET IT ROB
WHAT YOU AND SPENCER MEAN TO EACH OTHER.

[SIGHS]

FIX IT.

[FOOTSTEPS RETREAT]

[SIGHS]

[GASPS]

WAIT. ARE YOU SERIOUS?
SPENCER: YOU LIKE IT?

LIKE IT? NO!
I--I LOVE CASTLE PARK.

NO. NO, NO. I MADE US
RESERVATIONS AT...

BLACK FLEUR.
I CAN CANCEL.

- OH.
- I'LL CANCEL.

NO, NO, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO DO THAT.

[CHUCKLES]
YEAH, OK.

- [CHUCKLING]
- I AM CANCELING RIGHT NOW,

BUT, JUST
TO LET YOU KNOW,

I ALREADY WARMED UP
MY MINI-GOLF SKILLS WITH MY MOM, SO--

UM, THAT'S FUNNY
BECAUSE, THAT'S WHAT JORDAN AND HIS LITTLE

FOOTBALL FRIENDS
WENT TO PLAY WHEN THEY GOT TIRED

OF ME CRUSHING THEM
AT POP-A-SHOT.

- YOU SURE YOU MEAN POP-A-SHOT?
- YEAH. WHY?

'CAUSE I'VE SEEN YOU
PLAY BASKETBALL BEFORE.

IF YOU THINK POP-A-SHOT
AND BASKETBALL ARE

THE SAME GAME, YOU'RE
GONNA HAVE A TOUGH NIGHT.

- OK.

HEY.

OK, OK, WE'RE DONE.
OLIVIA: HA HA!

- NO, WE'RE GOOD, WE'RE GOOD.
- I'M NOT DONE!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING? YOU CRAZY?
OLIVIA: HA!

[R&B MUSIC PLAYING WITHIN]

- HEY, WHAT UP, Y'ALL?
- GIRL.

PREACH: I WISH
I CAN GIVE YOU ALL THE ANSWERS

ABOUT YOUR MOTHER'S
DEATH, BUT MOST IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW

IS MO WOULD WANT YOU
TO FOCUS ON YOU.

- HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
- 'CAUSE I KNOW WHAT KIND

OF CHILDHOOD
SHE WANTED YOU TO HAVE.

AND RIGHT NOW,
MY NUMBER-ONE PRIORITY IS

GIVING THAT TO YOU
AS BEST I CAN.

AMINA, I NEED FOR
YOU TO TRUST THAT

I'LL TAKE CARE
OF THINGS.

COOP: OH, NO, UM,
DIDN'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT.

JUST WHENEVER YOU GET
A MINUTE, PREACH.

HE'S GOT A MINUTE NOW.

- BABY GIRL, WE GOOD?
- IF UNCLE TYRONE WAS ALIVE,

HE WOULDN'T WAIT
TO FIND ANSWERS ABOUT WHO SHOT MOM.

HE WOULD HAVE
HANDLED IT BY NOW.

[SCOFFS]
YO, BRO, YOU NEED TO GO TALK TO HER.

AND SAY WHAT?

SHE AIN'T WRONG.

LOOK, I KNOW, AMINA
IS NOT MY BUSINESS,

WHICH IS ACTUALLY WHY I
CAME BY, TO APOLOGIZE.

NAH. I'M THE ONE
THAT NEEDS TO APOLOGIZE ABOUT THIS MORNING.

I PRIDE MYSELF
ON KEEPING IT 100.

JUST WASN'T READY
FOR HOW HARD IT IS TO SPEAK THE TRUTH,

KNOWING YOU'RE GONNA
HURT SOMEONE YOU LOVE.

- I APPRECIATE YOU SAYING THAT.
- WELL...

TRUTH IS, THIS AIN'T
THE SAME AT ALL.

YOU'RE TRYING
TO PROTECT AMINA,

PROTECT HER INNOCENCE.

HELL, THAT'S YOUR JOB,
BEING HER POP.

I WAS SILENT
TO PROTECT MYSELF,

AND NOW IT'S
HURTING LAYLA.

I'LL HANDLE THAT.

HEH! OH, MAN.
AMINA AIN'T NO REGULAR KID.

SHE GOT A LION IN HER.

REMINDS ME OF YOU.

AND THAT'S WHAT
WORRIES ME.

LAYLA, LAUGHING:
HOLY CRAP! I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THAT.

THAT WAS CRAZY.
A TOAST TO KIM NITTY,

MY NEW BADASS ARTIST.

OK, AND A TOAST
TO BEING THE BADDEST CHICK IN THE ROOM.

- OH, I TOLD YOU SHE WAS GREAT.
- NO, I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU.

LAYLA, NO ONE IN
THAT ROOM WANTED YOU

TO SIGN KIM, INCLUDING KIM,
BUT YOU SLAYED IT AND GOT HER

TO SIGN ANYWAY.
IT WAS INSANE.

WELL, I'M NOT GONNA LIE.
IT FELT PRETTY GOOD.

"PRETTY GOOD"?
I FELT LIKE A BADASS.

I WAS JUST STANDING
NEXT TO YOU. HEH!

[SETS DOWN MUG]

[MUG CLATTERS]

DO YOU THINK WE
HAVE TO GO? HEH!

OH, I THINK WE PRETTY MUCH
SHUT THE PLACE DOWN.

[SNICKERS]

YOU'LL COME BACK
TO MY PLACE?

MY MOM'S OUT AND...

IS EVERYTHING OK?

[SIGHS]
CAN WE TALK?

YEAH.

[CLEARS THROAT]

UM...

I KNOW YOU'VE...
PROBABLY BEEN WONDERING

WHY WE HAVEN'T
MADE LOVE YET.

- OH, LIV, MY BAD.
I WASN'T TRYING TO-- - NO, NO, NO. I--I KNOW,

AND I APPRECIATE YOU
NOT RUSHING THINGS.

I MEANT IT'S
GONNA SOUND STUPID BECAUSE IT'S--

IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME
FOR EITHER OF US.

BUT IT IS.

LIV, I HAVEN'T BEEN
RUSHING THINGS 'CAUSE...

BEING WITH YOU IS
A BIG DEAL TO ME.

I MEAN, YEAH, I SLEPT
WITH CHICKS BEFORE, BUT--

- YOU WERE DOING SO WELL.
- [CHUCKLES]

- WHAT?
- STOP PLAYING.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
- [CHUCKLES]

YOU, ME...

IT'LL BE THE FIRST TIME
FOR US...

TOGETHER.

AND BEING
WITH YOU, IT'S...

YOU'RE DIFFERENT
FOR ME, TOO.

DIFFERENT.

SO...WHEN
WE'RE READY...

THEN WE'LL BE READY.

AND TAKING IT SLOW

MEANS GETTING
TO MAKE OUT WITH YOU

UP AGAINST THIS CAR ALL NIGHT...
[OLIVIA LAUGHS]

HA HA!

AND WHY RUSH PERFECT?

WAIT. SO THEN WHAT
WAS ALL THAT ABOUT GOING TO YOUR PLACE?

OH, I MADE DESSERT.

FOR REAL.

HA HA HA HA!

[SNICKERING]

HA HA!
[SNICKERS]

I AM SO IN LOVE
WITH YOU.

HEH!

YOU WANT THAT DESSERT,
DON'T YOU?

I MEAN, ASSUMING THAT
THERE IS DESSERT.

OH, EVERYTHING ABOUT
MY BUNDT CAKES IS REAL.

- OH.
- REAL SUGAR...

- OH.
- REAL BUTTER.

- MMM.
- HA HA! I GUESS.

HA HA HA!
GIVE ME THE KEYS. I'M DRIVING.

[TEXT ALERT CHIMES]

YOUR POPS.

LAYLA: WE SHOULD HAVE
GOTTEN MORE FRIES. ASHER: TOLD YOU.

- MMM. TOP ME OFF?
- SURE.

SO, UH...ARE WE
GONNA TALK ABOUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

UM, LET'S CALL IT

A LITTLE CELEBRATORY SEX
BETWEEN FRIENDS.

I'M PRETTY SURE
THAT ISN'T A THING.

WELL, I LIKE THAT I
JUST MADE IT A THING.

YOU CAN CHALK THAT UP TO
MORE OF MY BADASSNESS. - HMM.

I DON'T NEED TO MAKE IT
ANY MORE THAN WHAT IT WAS.

- WORKS FOR ME.
- FIGURED, SINCE YOU CALLED

OLIVIA YOUR FIRST LOVE
ABOUT TWO HOURS AGO.

SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN
TO BRING HER UP.

NO, IT'S--IT'S NOT
THAT, ACTUALLY.

I WASN'T TALKING
ABOUT OLIVIA.

THEN WHO?
WAIT, NO. VANESSA?

NO. HEH! I WAS TALKING
ABOUT YOU, LAYLA.

OH.

OK, HEY, EASY.

I'M NOT
MAKING IT A THING. IT'S JUST A FACT.

WE'RE NOT THOSE
PEOPLE ANYMORE,

LIKE, AT ALL.

I MEAN, YOU'RE
DEFINITELY NOT. YOU'RE BETTER.

I MEAN, LOOK AT WHAT YOU
ACCOMPLISHED TONIGHT WITH THAT NEW ARTIST.

LAYLA 2.0 IS...

INCREDIBLE.

SHE MADE ME REALIZE
MAYBE ASHER 2.0 CAN BE, TOO.

ASHER 1.5 ISN'T SO BAD.

[CHUCKLES]

NO, BUT,
LIKE, FOR REAL, LOSING FOOTBALL

HAS GIVEN ME
A SECOND CHANCE.

- OK.
-WELL, IF I HADN'T LEARNED

ABOUT MY HEART
CONDITION, I COULD HAVE DIED OUT THERE.

OK, UM, SO YOU'RE
GETTING A SECOND CHANCE.

- WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH IT?
-THAT'S WHAT I GOT TO FIGURE OUT,

KIND OF LIKE YOU DID.
LAYLA: WELL, THE WHOLE PRODUCING THING DIDN'T

EXACTLY HAPPEN IN ONE AFTERNOON.
ASHER: YEAH, BUT IT DIDN'T TAKE YOU LONG

TO REPLACE COOP,
THOUGH. I--I MEAN, YOUR LABEL JUST LOST

ITS BIGGEST ARTIST,
AND YOU WENT OUT AND YOU SIGNED ANOTHER--

WAIT. WHAT DO YOU--
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I "LOST COOP"?

WHAT'S UP?

WHAT'S UP?
WHAT'S UP?

FRAUSTO: HEY, YOU KNOW
WHAT THIS ABOUT? SPENCER: NO.

BILLY: HEY, 'SCUSE ME.
HEY, Y'ALL.

ALL RIGHT, REAL QUICK...
[SETS DOWN BAG]

I KNOW IT'S END
OF THE SEASON,

BUT, UH--
[CHUCKLES]--

I JUST WANTED
TO TALK TO YOU ALL, OUR GRADUATING SENIORS,

AS, UH, AS YOUR COACH
ONE LAST TIME.

LOOK...

Y'ALL PROVED Y'ALL SELVES
TO BE CHAMPIONS ON THAT FIELD.

FRAUSTO: YEAH, TO YOU
AND EVERYBODY ELSE THAT GOT EYES.

BILLY: YEAH, WELL, TRUE, TRUE...
[PLAYERS CHUCKLE]

BUT I PROMISE YOU,
WHEN YOU LOOK BACK,

IT AIN'T GONNA BE ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED ON THAT FIELD THAT Y'ALL REMEMBER MOST.

MM-MMM.
IT'S GONNA BE THE PEOPLE,

EACH OTHER
BECAUSE FOOTBALL

IS...ABOUT MORE
THAN A GAME,

AND SOMETIMES EVEN I
FORGET THAT,

WHICH IS WHY I GOT YOU THESE,
SO Y'ALL WOULDN'T.

HERE YOU GO.
CHARGER FAMILY,

BECAUSE BEFORE THIS TEAM
BECAME CHAMPIONS,

WE BECAME FAMILY,

AND, UH, GOOD OR BAD,

FAMILY DON'T END
WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS.

[PLAYERS MURMUR]

BILLY: YOU WILL ALWAYS BE
MORE THAN PLAYERS TO ME,

AND I WILL ALWAYS BE MORE
THAN YOUR COACH.

FRAUSTO: YO,
THIS IS COOL, COACH,

BUT I GOT TO ADMIT,
I'D STILL RATHER HAVE A STATE RING.

BILLY: HA HA!
CHECK OUT THE INSIDE.

"WE WON."

BILLY: HELL YEAH, WE DID.
PLAYER: YEAH.

BILLY: HA HA HA HA!

ALL RIGHT,
SO, ALL RIGHT, NOW.

ALL RIGHT.
[PLAYER CLAPS]

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

COOP. YOU MADE IT.

HEY, I'M SORRY
IT TOOK SO LONG,

BUT...LISTEN, I NEED
TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.

- NO NEED. HEARD YOU
MIGHT BE QUITTING. - WAIT. FROM WHO?

DOES IT MATTER?

I GUESS NOT.

LOOK, IT'S--IT'S MY LUNGS,
FROM THE SHOOTING,

AND SINCERELY, MY BAD
FOR NOT LETTING YOU KNOW THIS SOONER.

I KNOW YOU PUT SO MUCH
INTO THIS ALBUM AND--

DON'T WORRY.
I'LL RECOUP ON MY INVESTMENT.

- WHAT'S THIS?
- THIS IS ME RECOUPING

ON MY INVESTMENT.
I'M GONNA FINISH YOUR ALBUM.

- YOU?
- WELL, MY NEW TALENT.

TURNS OUT THE ARTIST
I SIGNED LAST NIGHT PAIRS REALLY WELL WITH YOUR SOUND.

WAIT. YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
THAT'S MY MUSIC.

CAN'T JUST PUT
SOMEBODY ELSE'S RHYMES O-- LAYLA: I CAN, ACTUALLY,

BECAUSE IT'S NOT
YOUR MUSIC.

IT BELONGS TO MY LABEL,
MAKING IT MY MUSIC.

[SCOFFS]
WOW. YOU--

YOU REALLY DOING ME
DIRTY LIKE THIS? I THOUGHT WE WAS FAMILY.

SO DID I, BUT NOW
I KNOW BETTER.

LOOK, COME--LAYLA, NO,
I--I MADE A MISTAKE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
HOW MUCH TIME

AND ENERGY AND MONEY
I WASTED IN THE LAST

3 WEEKS, PREPPING
AN ALBUM RELEASE

THAT WAS ALREADY
DEAD IN THE WATER,

STALLING THE VEGAS
VENUES WITH PROMISES

THAT THE NEW LP WOULD
BE WORTH THE WAIT?

I STAKED MY LABEL
ON YOU

WHEN I SHOULD
HAVE BEEN OUT THERE TRYING TO SAVE IT.

SO, FROM NOW, I'M
GONNA DO WHAT'S RIGHT FOR MY BUSINESS,

AND THAT STARTS
WITH YOUR SIGNATURE RIGHT HERE.

[SETS DOWN PEN]
YOU ALREADY QUIT MUSIC, RIGHT?

THIS IS JUST
MAKING IT OFFICIAL.
