Original subtitles

We should probably get going. We probably should.

We're gonna go celebrate, create some memories, all right, one-two?

Yeah. That is what I'm talking about, young man!

Come on now, we're gonna celebrate. Come on.

All right.

Daddy got him on a leash.

I'm bringing you out here as assistant coach, just until Mac gets back.

What do you think about that? Sure, yeah.

I'm going to college. Only Riggins to get in. I told you.

I'm in because of you. Uh-huh.

Where are you? Actually, in Dallas.

Is everything all right? Yeah. Everything's fine.

I wanted to hear a familiar voice.

TYRA: I'm such an idiot, Julie.

There's no possible way on Earth that I'm gonna be able to make up

everything I have to make up.

I missed so much school.

I'm never getting into college at this point.

Look, okay. All you have to do

is you just have to bribe your teachers with some cupcakes,

so they'll let you make up the tests.

Cupcakes? Really?

And then, they're having another SAT this Saturday.

Matt's taking it, so you just go to that SAT,

get really high SAT scores and then your GPA won't matter as much.

Yeah, the problem is I suck at tests, so there's that.

So then why don't you just get Landry to help you?

It's not like he has anything better to do.

Uh, so does anyone have a plan or are we just gonna sit here all day? 'Cause I...

Let's just go to the Alamo Freeze.

We've been sitting here for like an hour...

Dude, the Alamo Freeze is gross, man.

You know what? All right, guys, I'm leaving.

Hey, boy, don't touch my door. What's wrong with you?

I didn't give you permission to leave, all right?

You're not my dad. Hey, if you say another word about your dad,

I swear I'm gonna punch you in the face. Boy, you got one.

Look, man, just relax. Hey, guys.

What's up? How you doing?

Hey, I just wanna let y'all know, Madison's parents are out of town.

She's gonna have some people over.

So you all should definitely come.

Hey, who's Madison?

BOY: You freaking nerd. Just shut up.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]

[R&B MUSIC PLAYING]

Excuse me.

Hey.

Hi.

Do you want an appletini?

[STAMMERING] Huh? No, I don't drink alcohol.

Yeah. You don't?

How about a glass of milk?

No, you know, I'm fine. Thank you, though.

No, I insist. No, no.

You know, this should be your thing.

You know, you drink milk.

You're like this young, wholesome, milk-drinking quarterback.

[SIGHING]

You have some...

Huh? There's a little bit on your lip.

Just right there.

There we go.

Perfect.

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]

RUSSELL: Keep them coming, honey.

I like that.

You good, Buddy?

Yeah.

[CHUCKLING] Want anything else? No.

Some chicken fingers with that little spicy ranch sauce you like so much?

What I wanna know is, when are you gonna tell me why you brought me here?

That's what I'm trying to get to, okay? Yeah.

Remember that little investment we made a few months back?

Mmm-hmm.

The strip mall? The sure thing.

Yeah.

It went belly-up.

[CHUCKLES]

It's okay, though.

I got a plan that's gonna put Dillon on the map, and I want you in on it.

I'm gonna give you a chance here tonight to be my first investor.

Now, you tell me right now that this isn't so.

What I come up with... You tell me you didn't lose my $70,000.

I told you three months ago... I am gonna make you so much more.

I was in this for 70 grand. It's gonna work out.

Hey, there is no such thing as a sure thing, Garrity. You know that.

MAN: Hey, you lovebirds wanna quiet down a little bit? Damn.

I'll tell you what, cowboy. You redneck son of a bitch.

Do you need silence to watch naked women?

Is that what you're saying to me? Now...

Sit down. Now, listen.

You tell me right now that you did not steal my...

You're not even gonna miss that 70 grand, Buddy Garrity.

Don't you talk to me about that 70 grand.

You gotta tell me right now...

You've been coming to me and begging for deals all year long.

Are you out of your mind? Son of a bitch!

[CRASHING]

[GIRLS SCREAMING]

Get up! Get up, you son of a gun.

[GRUNTING]

[RUSSELL GROANING]

What the hell happened?

[SIGHING] You don't need to be worrying about me and what happened right now.

You need to be thinking about Friday night, Eric.

The Bisons play dirty. Everybody knows that.

And the refs don't like you, so don't worry about me.

Oh, I'm not worried about you.

You know you're gonna spend the night in here tonight, don't you?

'Cause they're not letting you out.

Oh, my Lord. That is awful.

I don't know, honey.

He got in a fight over at the Landing Strip or some crazy thing.

I'm not quite sure what, but listen... Oh, my Lord.

Just listen to me real quick.

What he wants to know, can you go over and let Lyla know what's going on?

Well, yeah. But I was supposed to pick up Jules at Matt's house at 6:00.

Could you do that?

All right. Okay.

All right, honey. I'll go over there now.

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]

Hi, Mrs. Taylor. Hey. How are you?

Good.

Good, I just... Your dad asked me to drop by,

because he got himself in a little bit of a...

[CLICKING TONGUE] Little bit of a scrape and...

What do you mean? Well, I guess there was some kind of a fight or something.

A fight? Yeah. And I think he's...

What? Where? What do you mean, a fight? With who?

He was apparently in a business meeting at the...

[CLEARING THROAT] At the Landing Strip.

And, anyway, so he's gonna have to spend the night in jail

is the point. But he's fine, sweetie. He's fine. Okay?

And he was worried about you. He wanted me to let you know. Okay?

I know you're a big grown-up girl and all of that, but...

If you wanted to just come stay with us tonight at our house,

you'd be more than welcome,

in case you feel like you might like to have some family around.

Okay? Okay.

[SLOW MUSIC PLAYING]

[WHISPERING] I love you.

I love you, too.

[SIGHING]

Mmm.

You should probably get up. Your mom's gonna be here in like a half hour.

Grandma and Shelly will probably be back from the doctor soon.

Let me just listen to one more song.

Yeah, we can do one more.

Jules?

[JULIE SHRIEKS]

Dad, get out!

[DOOR OPENING]

[ENGINE STARTING]

[SINGING INDISTINCTLY]

All right, that part. That's the part where I wanted you to clap.

Me to clap? Hey.

Hey, y'all. How are you? Hello.

Um...

Can I talk to you for a sec?

Yeah, that's... TYRA: I mean, just for...

Yeah, that's fine. Just...

Sorry, it'll only take a minute.

DEVIN: That's okay. You always just pop up at the most random time.

Yeah, you know, you sound really good, though.

Well, it's supposed to sound a lot heavier than that.

My distortion pedal's not even working.

[DEVIN GIGGLING] But now is like the first time we've...

That we've really ran through it all together, but...

Cool.

Look, I need to ask you a favor. If you can.

I'm taking the SATs on Saturday 'cause I gotta get my points up by, like, 1000.

And I thought it would be better if I had a coach.

And you're really good at that, so I was just hoping...

So you want me to help you out.

If you could, that would be amazing.

Yeah, that's fine. I don't see why not.

Um, but I've just got band rehearsal and practice and school.

Right, of course. Yeah, you're the best. So, besides that...

[CHUCKLES] You are. Thank you.

No, so, then I'll call you tomorrow. And we'll set something up.

All right. Okay.

Thank you. All right.

Bye, y'all.

DEVIN: Bye. DRUMMER: Bye.

[SNICKERING] What?

It's like you're her prostitute, right? You're gonna help her study?

Except you don't get paid. Or laid.

Seriously. DRUMMER: Hey, are we ever gonna get a gig?

Look, I'm sorry about your dad.

Really.

Do you want to talk about it at all? I mean...

It's okay. Thank you.

Um...

But just a heads-up. There might be some drama with my parents tonight.

Okay. Why?

Well, Matt and I were...

What? We were doing stuff and then my dad came in, and...

Like, making out doing stuff or, like, doing stuff?

You did it? Like, well, it was like afterwards and...

Then my dad walked in and...

Wow.

Yeah. Welcome to my world.

[SPITS]

[GROANING] Good Lord.

I found Matt and Julie in bed together this afternoon.

What?

I found Julie and Matt in bed together this afternoon.

Where?

Over at Matt's house when I went to pick Julie up.

Where was that grandmother?

I don't know where she was. What were they doing?

Honey, they were in bed together. It was very obvious.

Oh, honey, oh, honey. You walked in?

What did you do?

What did I do? I went outside and waited for Julie to come outside.

That's what I did.

I'm gonna go talk to her.

Before you go in there and talk to her,

you better know what you're gonna say.

I have no idea.

LYLA: [WHISPERING] What are you doing?

Just trying to see how long they're gonna ground me for.

Well, at least they have another daughter.

Sorry, bad joke.

Matt seems like a really nice guy.

Yeah, no. It's not the problem. He's a great guy. It's...

I just feel like everything's different now.

Like I'm not Daddy's little girl anymore.

Yeah.

[SIGHING]

Hey.

Hi.

[SIGHING]

So your dad told me about what happened at Matt's last night.

Great.

Is there anything you want to say?

[SIGHING]

He should have knocked.

All right, well, I don't like your tone.

You know, I'd like to be able to have a conversation with you about it.

So then, let's have a conversation.

Okay.

Well, I don't really know what to say.

I don't really know how to have a conversation about it.

You know, it's disconcerting.

I don't know, Jules.

Why don't you just tell me what my punishment is?

Your punishment is you're gonna have to have a conversation with me about it.

Let's go to school, come on.

You do realize I'm 17, right?

I know how old you are.

JUDGE: Buddy Garrity, you have been charged with drunk and disorderly,

assault and battery, and inflicting $30,000 of damage

to the Landing Strip.

How do you plead?

Not guilty, Your Honor.

Bail is set at $10,000.

[DOORBELL RINGING]

Hi! Hi! Is J.D. home?

I'm sorry.

You must be Mrs. McCoy.

I'm Madison. It's really nice to meet you.

KATIE: Well, nice to meet you.

MADISON: You have a beautiful house.

KATIE: Oh, thank you.

I know J.D. from school, so I was just popping by. I hope that's okay.

Oh, yeah. This is my husband.

Mr. McCoy.

Yeah, that's me. Hi. Nice to meet you.

And you. So is J.D. home?

Yeah, he's upstairs studying, actually. Sure.

Yeah, why don't you just head right on up?

Thank you. I'll find my own way.

KATIE: All right, yeah, it's just...

Who the hell is that?

Well, didn't you hear, honey? That's Madison.

LANDRY: "The other delegates and him immediately accepted"

"the resolution drafted by the neutral states."

Um, "him" should be "he."

There you go. I'm smarter than I look.

ANGELA: Hey, you two!

Hi! LANDRY: Hey.

You guys working hard?

Yeah. Yeah.

ANGELA: Landry, we're so happy to see you back around here.

We missed you, didn't we, honey?

[CHUCKLES] Okay.

ANGELA: Yeah. You know what? While you're here, sweetie, can you take a look

at the pilot light in that wall here? I think it's out. I just...

Mama, Landry is... He's helping me right now.

Well, whenever you have a moment.

There's no hurry. See you later.

Sorry about that.

So, where were we?

Are you gonna tell me what happened, Dad?

I had a business meeting.

A business meeting at a strip club?

Yeah, this Russell Flaherty guy.

I've known him a long time,

and I made an investment with him. Deal went south

and I lost all the money, and...

I lost my temper, that's all. I lost my temper.

He's swindled me for the last time, I'll tell you that...

Swindled you? I thought it was an investment.

Investment. It was an investment.

But, basically, he just stole my money,

is what he did, but it's not something

that you need to worry about.

Not for me to worry about? Dad, I just saw you get arraigned

for being a crazy drunk man at a strip club!

How am I not going to worry? I just... Please explain to me.

What happened?

Lyla.

Listen, times have been tough.

Business has not been good.

So your dad took the savings money

and made a risky investment. It was stupid.

And I lost some money.

I tried to get some quick cash flow with the savings money

and it didn't work out.

So, basically, we're in real big trouble. Okay.

We're in big trouble. Okay.

So I'll get a job, and I'll help out until I go to college.

No big deal. I used the college money, Lyla.

The savings that we were keeping for your college

is the money I used for the investment.

[SIGHING]

Now...

[SOBS]

Honey, it doesn't mean you're not going to college.

I'll figure out a way to do this.

Lyla, don't do that.

Where are you going? You're not going anywhere.

Wait a minute. Don't do this.

Don't touch... Don't. Don't! Don't touch me!

Lyla, honey, please don't leave me.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]

Please tell me the lesson that you've learned.

Always lock the door...

When having sex with the coach's daughter.

You don't need to announce it to everybody.

Not that any of this really matters,

because as soon as Coach sees you,

that might be the end of everything for you.

I'm basically looking at a dead man walking right now.

Whatever you do, do not look him in the eye.

Hey, gentlemen, listen up. Let me have your attention real quick.

All right, we just got word on Friday's game as far as the...

We lost the appeal on the referee is what I'm saying.

TAYLOR: Here's what that means, gentlemen.

It means we can expect a lot of missed calls and a lot of late hits come Friday.

But what we're not going to do is we are not going to lose

our tempers out there. We will not lose our tempers out there.

What we are going to do is we are going to put our heads down,

and we're going to play our game of football. Understood?

ALL: Yes, sir!

You leave the officials to me.

Two games.

TIM: Then we're in State.

Then State.

[ALL CHEERING]

LANDRY: "Loquacious"?

Uh, overly sad? Talk...

Talkative?

Yeah. Talkative.

"Lugubrious."

Lugubrious is overly sad. Uh-huh.

"Polyphonic."

I'm so bored right now, Landry.

So bored.

[TYRA GROANING]

Well, I'm sorry to bore you, but we really need to...

Do you want a Coke or something?

I can make us sandwiches. I just want a break.

Let's take a break. Well, actually, I've got

band practice here in just a few minutes.

So we should probably finish these if you want to...

Can't they wait for like a half hour? No, they can't.

They can't just wait, because I told them that...

You guys cutting a record or something?

No, we're not cutting a record,

but I'm not going to just...

[LAUGHING] I'm not going to just ditch them, so I can have a sandwich with you.

I told you that I would help you with your vocabulary words,

and that's what I am doing.

Wait, you're leaving? Why are you getting so mad right now?

I'm getting so mad, because you keep taking advantage of me,

because you know how I feel about you, Tyra.

You do. It's like it's nothing and I just let you.

So...

Wait, where are you going? This whole thing...

Are you serious? Have you ever read the book The Giving Tree, Tyra?

Yeah, when I was like five. Why?

It's about this tree who loves this boy more than anything, right?

And the boy just takes and takes and takes until there's absolutely

nothing left but a stump.

And I'm like the tree and you're like the little boy.

You just take and take, and there's

absolutely nothing left, Tyra.

That's exactly what I feel like, just a stump.

Because this, this is not a friendship. You're selfish. It's not a friendship, okay?

Landry.

I mean, do you know that the doggone Landing Strip is charging me

$30,000 for damages?

$30,000! That place isn't even worth $30,000.

I don't even know what to say about that.

Listen to me, I don't even know how I'm going to keep the condo, I'm so damn broke.

Hi, thank you.

You know, and Lyla, Lyla is gone.

Lyla has moved in with Riggins.

God Almighty, can you imagine what's going on over there?

I mean, I do not understand this.

We are in the middle of a family crisis

and Lyla leaves in a huff.

When I was in college, I had to work my butt off.

I had to work for the money. She just expects...

Can I tell you one thing?

Money comes and goes, yeah.

These kids of ours.

That's a one-time deal.

Would it be all right if we had this conversation now?

Yeah.

So...

[CLEARING THROAT]

Do you love Matt?

I love Matt.

Does he love you?

Matt loves me.

He does?

And what about birth control?

Mom, I don't want to talk about it.

Hon, that's the conversation.

Yes, we're using birth control.

What kind, specifically?

Condoms, we're using condoms.

Do you know how to use them properly?

Yes, I know how to use them.

You know you have to use them every time, right?

'Cause sometimes boys try to...

No, I know that.

Tell you, you don't need them all the time, but you do.

Matt's really good about it. Okay.

And you know that, you know, just 'cause you're having sex this one time,

doesn't mean that you have to all the time.

You know, if it ever starts feeling like he's taking it for granted

or you're not having... You're not enjoying it, you can stop any time.

And if you ever break up with Matt, it's not like,

you know, you have to have sex with the next boy, necessarily.

Why are you crying?

'Cause I wanted you to wait.

And that's just 'cause I want to protect you, 'cause I love you,

[CRYING] and I want to make sure that nothing bad ever happens to you.

And I want you to always be able to talk to me, even if it's something

so hard like this.

I didn't want to disappoint you.

No.

Uh-uh, uh-uh.

So, who's the redhead who came by the house the other day?

Uh, Madison?

Madison. Yeah, Madison, who's that?

Oh, just a cute girl I met at school. Uh-huh.

She's a good girl. I like her. Oh, yeah?

[EXCLAIMS] Nope.

All right, ready? Just remember you are in the middle of the playoffs,

my friend. That's a good shot.

Listen to me, okay?

Now is not the time to be chasing skirts, okay?

Why? We are talking about the Texas State

High School Championship. Uh-uh! Look at me.

Madison and a bunch of girls like her

will be waiting in the wings when the season is over.

She is not going to sit and wait around for me.

She's going to find someone else.

She's going to sit and wait around for 50 years,

you win the State Championship.

She'll be sitting right over there with bells on.

Believe me. Do me a favor.

Time out, time out.

Look at me.

Look at me.

You're on break with her.

She's on the back burner. Yes? I'm asking you.

Okay?

Okay. Good.

[LAUGHING]

To win the game. To win the game.

[GROANING] No!

Oh! Get out of here!

You ever heard of The Giving Tree?

You mean the little kids' book with the little boy and the tree?

Yeah, that one.

So Landry says that I am the selfish little kid

and he's the tree. Can you believe that?

Okay, that's an awful long pause, Julie.

[SIGHING] Okay, look, promise not to be mad at me?

That's just kind of your relationship.

Like, he worships the ground you walk on.

He does everything you say and you allow him to be seen with you.

Yeah, see, that doesn't help me.

So if you don't think he has a point, why are we here?

Proving him wrong.

Come on.

They are so good.

Look, I've told you, you don't have a demo CD.

You don't have any press to show me.

[STAMMERING] What are these guys called again?

Crucifictorious.

Right. Crucifictorious. Awesome.

They are awesome, and they have tons of fans.

I mean, this place will be completely packed.

I...

Not to mention that I am going to bring all my girlfriends

who happen to all look like her.

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]

Hey.

Take it.

You and your stupid band are playing at T.C.'s on Saturday,

so don't say I never did anything for you, all right?

And you know what? Don't call me selfish.

Hurts my feelings.

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]

Oh, hi, Matt.

I'm just here to pick up Julie. To go to the movies.

And then I'm gonna bring her right back home.

Come on in.

Thanks.

Uh, in fact, you know, Coach is out in the backyard.

You want to go out, wait out there?

Go on back.

[METALLIC CLANGING]

Coach?

How's it going?

[SIGHING] Come here.

[METALLIC CLANGING]

[PANTING]

I know your father's in Iraq,

but if he was here, I think we'd agree on one thing, he and I.

The both of us.

And that is,

women are to be respected.

Yes, sir.

[METALLIC CLANGING]

That is my daughter.

Yes, sir.

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]

BUDDY: Lyla!

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

BUDDY: Lyla, I know you're in there. I see your car out here.

I'm still your daddy.

What do you wanna do?

I have nothing to say to him.

Riggins, let her out of there.

I don't care if I wake up all the neighbors. Get on out here.

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

BUDDY: Lyla!

I'm not leaving till you come out here, Lyla.

Okay! Okay.

[DOOR SLAMMING]

What do you want?

What I want, is for you to come home.

This is no excuse for you to play house with your boyfriend.

You're gonna lecture me on morals?

Honey, we can work this out. How are we gonna work it out, Dad?

You're $20,000 in the hole for tearing up a strip club.

What are you gonna do? Rob a bank?

You know, you're acting like a spoiled little brat.

That's what you're doing. A spoiled little brat! Excuse me?

Now, you are old enough to know better than this, Lyla.

Life is complicated. It's not a bowl of cherries.

And right now, your mother is out there in California, bleeding me dry...

[CRYING] No! You don't blame this on Mom.

You were the one who cheated, and you are the one who threw your family away.

And I was the idiot who stuck with you. And you don't dare call me spoiled.

We've been putting that money away since I was a baby.

You said if I made those grades, that it was mine.

And you didn't even ask.

You just do whatever you want, and wonder why everybody hates you.

Lyla, I'm not through. Do not walk in there. Get back out here!

Lyla?

Hey.

Tim Riggins, I am gonna talk to my daughter, young man.

Not right now.

Tim, who the hell do you think you are, son?

That's my daughter over there!

You need to go.

[SIGHING]

Please?

[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]

See you after the game, okay?

Um, yeah.

Um, you know, maybe we should just lay off for a while.

Hey, yo, man, what the hell is that kid doing?

BOY: Oh, man, he's throwing away a nice piece of tail, is what he's doing.

I bet you his daddy told him to do it, man. He's a punk, dude.

BOY: I said I love redheads.

McCoy!

Hey, way to go, Romeo. What?

You drop that gal?

I don't know. Kind of.

'Cause I'll tell you what. You know what's good before a game?

Getting laid. A lot. You know what I mean?

No, that's not happening.

Why?

My dad.

Let me get this straight.

You just ended that whole thing with her because of your old man?

Well... Sort of.

How do you expect any one of these guys to battle for you every night,

if you can't make a decision like that on your own?

'Cause you know you're a leader, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Start acting like one.

ALL: Break!

[GROANING]

Hey!

Hey! Hey, there he goes again!

Where's the flag? Come on, Billy!

Come on, open your eyes!

SPORTSCASTER: Tim Riggins gains a solid 5 before getting leveled by Alsop.

Sure looked like another late hit by the Bisons.

The Panthers have yet to get a call tonight.

[SHOUTING]

You good?

PLAYER: I needed that, let's go!

Hey, man, these fools are playing dirty all night. What are we gonna do, man?

Suck it up! Let's go. Call us out, 1, 2.

Eight, 27, tiger, on 1. Ready?

ALL: Break!

SPORTSCASTER: Just under two minutes to go in the half.

And things are getting pretty ugly out there, folks.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

Buckley is using every dirty trick in the book,

and there has been a noticeable absence of yellow laundry on that field tonight.

McCoy fires across the middle. He's got Saracen.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

Oh, and that has got to be pass interference.

[SHOUTING] What is that?

How can you not see that?

You gotta be kidding me! You gotta be kidding...

How can you not see that?

What have I got to do to get you to throw a flag tonight?

SPORTSCASTER: Taylor is absolutely livid on the sidelines.

I mean, he is inconsolable, and I can't blame him, folks.

A stupid idiot.

SPORTSCASTER: J.D. McCoy back to pass. He fires.

[GROANING]

Oh! They hit him back from the pass!

Oh, my!

Hey! How can you not see that?

What is that, ref?

Come on!

What? Come on!

You know what you are? You're a no-calling son of a bitch! That's what you are!

Bill, you're a no-calling son of a bitch.

You want a flag?

Give me a flag! You want a flag?

Give me a damn flag! Let me see it! I wanna see it!

I'll do anything to see...

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

Oh, good, that's great!

[CROWD SHOUTING]

Here, you take your flag.

You go! You are gone!

SPORTSCASTER: And Coach Taylor is gone, folks.

He has been ejected from this contest.

He is handing the reins over to Wade Aikmen,

and he will have to sit the rest of this game in the locker room.

Wade Aikmen has taken over the offense. Now, he's been a quarterback...

How you doing?

SPORTSCASTER: The ball has definitely landed in his court,

it's a hot one.

He's bringing the Panthers out.

Let's see what he's got, folks.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hello! Hello!

Listen, they're stacking the linebackers.

Have Riggins on the sweep. You understand?

Get on the line! Coach?

You hear me now? Can you hear me?

I said they're stacking the linebackers.

WADE: I can't hear you, Coach!

Go! Go!

Right here!

[EXCLAIMING]

7-27, come on, go! Go, get out there! Hello?

Get in there! Get in!

Coach! I'll call you back. I can't hear you!

SPORTSCASTER: Wade Aikmen's inspired play-calling has put the Panthers

deep in Bison territory. Boy, look at the pass. Oh!

Oh, no, and he is sacked. And that is going to be a 7-yard loss on the play.

The clock is rolling, folks. The Panthers down by 3.

They cannot afford to make any mistakes at this point.

Here we go. J.D. McCoy is rolling left. He fires back.

It's a screen play to Riggins. He's got room!

He's to the 20! To the 15! To the 10, to the 5!

Boom! Big Tim Riggins powers in. Touchdown, Panthers!

[CROWD CHEERING] Oh, mercy!

This one is over, folks. Panthers win, Panthers win!

You got Scotch in here?

[BOOING]

You really gotta hand it to Coach Wade Aikmen, folks.

He did a fantastic job under some terrible circumstances.

A bright shining star on the Dillon football horizon.

Well, he's in bed, sound asleep.

Thank you.

Well, you sound a little disappointed in that.

Yeah, yeah, I was kind of hoping he might be out on a date.

[SCOFFS] That's not going to happen.

We had a... We had a little chat.

[CLEARING THROAT]

You did?

Yeah. When?

[SCOFFS] Just the other day.

Well, you know, he saw the wisdom in waiting until we won the State...

Joe, you gotta quit making all these unilateral decisions without including me.

Sweetie... No, I am his mother.

It's not that big of a deal... It is a big deal.

Taking a break, and then Mercedes or Madison or whatever the heck her name is,

she will be there when the season is over.

You know what? You're really starting to freak me out. And I don't like it.

Honey, what's the big deal? This whole football thing is freaking me out.

He's taking a break from a girl who's distracting him... Whatever!

From the most important football games of his life.

Yeah, it's all football, football, football, football, isn't it?

What? Nothing.

Oh, man, what did you see out there?

Nothing. I didn't see anything.

Excuse me. Just...

Is that...

That little bastard.

Hey, y'all. Is this gonna be really bad, 'cause I'm...

I'm a little nervous.

There's a strong, strong possibility.

Everybody, we're Crucifictorious.

Thank you for coming out.

[SINGING] I can't shake the conversation

Did I jump?

Did I run free?

Final statement I thought I made

But, no, I'm talking to my feet

They're not that bad.

Landry's kind of cute up there.

Yeah, I know.

It's love or time

She can't break...

[INAUDIBLE]

[PHONE RINGING]

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

BUDDY: Lyla, it's me.

Your dad.

Please call me back. I'm sorry.

I...

You were right, Lyla.

I'm very, very sorry.

Please call me back. Please.

I love you very, very much.

I love you, honey.

Bye.
