All American (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 11 - All Eyez on Me - full transcript

Previously on "All American"...

Y'all called up Cameron
Wilson to replace me, huh?

Hey, at least the brother's willing
to rock a south crenshaw Jersey.

Oh, so, now you're
gonna guard me, huh?

Why not? I already
took your spot.

You ain't never
gonna be me.

You think I have
a chance to be great?

I don't know yet.

There you go.
Keep it going.

Again.

We're gonna have to come up
with a whole new playbook



since someone gave
Malibu ours.

As soon as I tell my dad what
you did, you're off this team.

You serious right now?

Probably best you go stay
with your mother for a while.

No use you being here
if you're off the team.

On your marks.

Get set.

You ready
for the combine?

- My man.
- Good to see you.

- Good to see you, too.
- You been well?

Yeah, yeah.

Jordan, Spencer. Come here, boys.
Come here right quick.

I'd like to introduce you to a
good friend of mine... Damon king.

We go way back,



back to when I used to
beat his ass in the NFL.

Oh!

Oh, your memory
always been that bad?

It's coach king
now, fellas.

Wideouts,
Angeles Southern University.

Jordan Baker. Nice
to meet you, sir.

Jordan.
That's right.

Man, the last time
I saw you,

I'm pretty sure
you was in diapers.

Your dad said you got a
rocket for an arm, huh?

Excited to show
it off, sir.

I've always wanted to
play for the wolves.

Hmm.

And this
right here, Spencer James.

Yes, sir. Oh, yeah.

We know who you are.

Beverly's finest. Man.

Crenshaw's own,
actually.

Well, you lucky
you moved to Beverly.

Otherwise, you might
have missed

the first two combines,
young man.

Don't sleep on crenshaw.

We may not have
these fancy facilities,

but a lot of dudes
there can play.

Ok. I will
keep that in mind.

So, you ever considered

Angeles Southern
for college ball?

Y'all got one of the best
football programs in L.A.

And it's close
to home.

And I send at least
two guys

to the league
every single year.

Ok,
easy, easy.

The combine hasn't
even started yet.

You're already
in the picture.

You know the game.

All right.
Spencer's gonna wait

for the recruitment
process to play out

before he makes
any commitments.

Listen, don't
wait too long.

I only got
a couple of guys

graduating at receiver.

So, you talking, like,

what, a couple
scholarships?

Nah. Talking one.

Oh, wow. Heh.

Right. Well, I appreciate
the love,

but, like coach said,
I'm keeping my options open.

Nice to meet you.

I'm thinking I
should be your agent.

You know, since you're
about to blow up.

What you talking about?

I don't know.
Just these?

Somebody's gotta
help you field

all these college
recruiters

and help you make
the right choice.

And we both
know that

I'm the brains
in the family, so...

Wait. Since when
did mom

want to play
college football?

Oh. Grandpa.

Are your parents home?

My dad's already
at the field

setting up the combine
and mom's got a conference.

Good. Good.

Uh... what... what are
you doing here?

You stopped
coming by to see me.

Figured I'd
come see why.

Well, you know,
I've just been busy

training for the playoffs
and the combine.

You call

what your daddy
does training?

Thought you wanted
my help.

I thought about it,
and I'm good,

at least
on the training.

But I'm still
down to hang out,

as long as you don't
try to use me

as an atm again.

Hmm. Heh!
You know what?

How about breakfast
on me? Hmm?

I can't today. I gotta
get to the combine.

What for? You ain't
ready no how.

Um, I mean,
I was good enough

for the college recruiters
to invite me.

You should never
be satisfied

with being
good enough.

And just
for the record,

you got invited 'cause
you're Billy Baker's boy.

Well, not everything
is about my dad.

Let me
ask you something.

When was
the last time you were

really challenged
on the field?

You, personally?

You're about to go up
against competition

that's a whole lot
more talented

and prepared
than you are.

You'll see.

Or... maybe you'll see

whenever I prove
you wrong.

When
you said we were

co-hosting
the combine,

I didn't think you
literally meant "we."

Ha ha! Look,
I appreciate

you giving us
a hand.

It's a big day.

Spencer,
your brother.

Asher. But I thought
he was off the team.

Oh, he is.
He is.

Scouts control the
invitations, not me.

He didn't rsvp.
Did you follow up?

I mean, this is a big deal for him.
He needs this.

If he wanted
to be here,

he would've rsvp'd
like everybody else.

All right?

Hey. Ahem.

Hey.

Olivia. What are
you, uh...

What are you
doing here?

I think
the question is

what are you
doing here?

Have you been sleeping
in your car?

Yeah.

I got into it with my dad,

and he put me out.

Things didn't go over
well with my mom

in Malibu,
either, so...

I'm sorry, Asher.

Ok, but your plan
can't be

to drink your
problems away

and sleep
in your car.

Don't tell anyone
about the car thing.

My life is already
pathetic enough as is.

Ok. On two
conditions.

One... put this on.

It's your
combine Jersey.

The combine?
That's today?

Yes, Asher,
it's today.

You're already off
the football team.

I mean, this might
be your last chance

at a scholarship.

Do you even care
about your future?

Of course.

Look, I just assumed with
me being off the team,

I'd be uninvited.

Well, you're not.

What's the second
condition?

You take a shower,
like... now.

It's, like,
really bad, dude.

When were you gonna tell
me about night school?

I was here all summer

and didn't even know
you signed up.

Oh, baby,
it's no big deal.

I was trying to
finish my b.A., but...

Yeah, and you dropped out.

Was it because
I moved to Beverly?

College isn't that
far away for you.

It was past time
I started saving

for your college fund...

Yours and Dillon's.

That's what
my extra money

should've been going to.

I'm already so close

to getting
a scholarship,

so close to doing
what I said I would

when I moved
to Beverly.

You seen
the letters?

You don't have
to worry about

saving for my tuition
no more, all right?

You can go to school.

I don't want you betting
everything on football.

You're too gifted
for that.

What if you get injured
and football goes away?

So does
your scholarships.

Look, mom...

Your job is making
something special

out of everything that
I could give you,

like you always do. Ok?

- All right? There you go.
- Thank you.

What's up, baby?
What you doing here?

Stuck covering for Olivia,

which she owes me for
big-time.

Hey, everything ok?

Yeah, just a lot
on my mind.

You know.

Big day.

Um, hey, can you
cover for me a sec?

What's going on?

I thought you weren't
worried about the combine.

I wasn't.

Now I gotta land
a scholarship

this weekend
and commit.

What happened to keeping
your options open?

My mom happened.
I can't have her

throw away her
dreams because of me.

Time to get it in, boys.

Hey. What up,
what up, what up?

What's going on,
Spence?

Hey, let's show
these college recruiters

what Beverly boys
are made of.

That's right,
baby.

I like your spirit.

Can't wait
to see you ball.

Yes, sir.

Oh. Spencer.
I took your advice.

About what?

About crenshaw.

I like a player
that's not afraid

of a little competition.

Hey, Spence, what up?

You were looking out,
putting us

on coach king's radar, man.

All good, man.
Glad you came through.

Pleasure.

Can't say the same
for your boy, though.

Hey, man,
you the one that

got him right
in the first place.

Now, remember, man.
Iron, sharp as iron.

All right,
all right, all right.

Gentlemen, welcome to
the district combine.

For those of y'all
who do not know me,

or have not had
the pleasure of getting

their tails beat down
by me or my team,

I'm coach Billy Baker,

co-hosting alongside
the college sponsors

that are here
in the building.

Let's give it up.

All right, now let's
get down to brass tacks.

Players, congratulations.

You are here for one reason
and one reason only.

You are the best
that the area has to offer.

However, the combine
is designed to find

the best of the best.

You will be tried and measured.

Follow me.

Height, weight,
strength, and speed.

All of it will be tested,

after which a select few of you

will be invited to play
the 7-on-7

showcase game tomorrow.

Gentlemen, making the cut
is simple.

Be at your very best.

All right, fellas, get this.

Whoo!

Hey, yo, man,
you seen Olivia?

She said she'd be
out front this morning.

No, man, I haven't seen
her since last night.

So, you nervous?

No way.

I'm coming off
a winning season.

All right.
Excuse me.

Though, last time
I checked,

the combine wasn't
a team event, so...

Heh. That doesn't
change a thing.

All right? I know what
I bring to the table.

Easy. No one
said you didn't.

I mean, you got
prototypical size.

Pops played
in the league.

Scouts are probably already
salivating over you.

All right, y'all,
wideouts are next.

Line it up. First up.

Asher Adams.

No?

Next up, Jay Quellin.

Wait.

I'm here.

Coach.

Ok. Good luck.

Whoo!

Yo, when did Chris
get so fast?

Always has been.

This is the first time
y'all gone head to head.

Yo, who's that dude
with cam and coach king?

Brett hanson.

Angeles Southern's
number-one booster.

He's got half the
campus named after him.

Now, why are you sweating? Coach king
all but said they came here for you, ok?

You've had
a good day, Spence.

Well, it ain't good
enough for me, all right?

They got they eyes

on somebody else now,

and I need that Angeles
Southern scholarship.

What's up, Spence?

What's good?

Look, I'm thinking
it's time

we give these guys
a show.

Let them know what us
crenshaw boys do.

We ain't boys, cam.

What's wrong?

Thought you liked
to compete, big dawg.

So, what you got
in mind?

Hey. 40-yard dash

is supposed to be
individually timed.

Did y'all two
goad these boys

into making it
a race?

You know how it is.

Football is
all about competition.

Now, let's give these boys
what they want.

Set it.

All right, fellas!
On your marks!

Ready.

Set.

Go!

- That was great, son!
- Yeah, boy.

Yeah...

There's a lesson to be
learned in all this.

Look, you ain't
gotta say it, all right?

All them coaches, they
came here to see you.

Yeah, well, it didn't
take them long

to find somebody
they liked better.

Why did you take
his bait?

You let him
set it up like

it was a head-to-head
competition.

You just helped
raise up his profile.

Well, it don't matter.

He gonna get that
asu receiver scholarship.

You heard what
coach king said.

They only got one.

What happened to wanting
to leave your options open?

Plans change,
all right?

- Why?
- Because of my moms.

She got dreams, too,
like finishing school.

Look, I've gotta stay
close to home, all right,

and asu's local.

It's her turn.

Look, if
Angeles Southern

is where
you need to be,

you need to go out
there and show them

what I already know.

And what's that?

That you're the best
player out there.

It ain't even close.

Go on.

All right, let's go,
let's go, let's go!

All right.

What'd I say?
Ain't even close.

Ain't even close.

This kid needs
to work on his hands.

I think you could
coach him up.

Can't teach size.

And you sure as hell
can't teach speed.

Set! Hut!

I see you, Adams.
I see you.

And go!

Don't hesitate.
Don't hesitate. Just throw.

Just throw.
Just throw.

Could somebody
get me a real qb?

What's that fool
doing here?

Are you good?

Just having
an off day.

Psh. Happens to
the best of us, man.

Did you miss a single
throw today?

I mean...

That's what
I thought.

You straight-up
outplayed me.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Jordan Baker,
congratulations.

Thank... thanks...
Thanks, coach.

Chris, maybe
next year.

Chris, I'm...

I'm really sorry, man.

You deserved
an invite, too.

Yeah. I deserved
that one.

Wait. Wait. Hol...
Hold up. You...

No, man. You said
I outplayed you all day.

Yeah, man, you got
size, strength,

but you also got a daddy
that played in the NFL,

and that
right there, man,

that's all
you'll ever need.

But you know, man,
it's all good.

It's all good,
because where I'm from,

I'm used to hustling

and working
twice as hard.

And, man, we both know
you don't deserve this.

But, man, you can keep
your privilege.

I ain't gonna stop.

Hey. You showed
out today.

Love, man.
I appreciate you, man.

Let's hope
it was enough.

Why, no
7-on-7 invite?

Not yet.

Looks like cam
just got his.

The kid's a beast.

Combine's been over
for a while.

I'm not ready
to leave just yet.

I miss this...

Being out here.

I didn't
appreciate it enough.

Well, come back tomorrow
for the 7-on-7 game.

I'll be here.

So will I.

Wait. Is that...

They invited me
to play.

Asher,
that's amazing.

I mean, the gold
envelope's a bit much.

Kind of Willy wonka,
if you ask me, but...

Well, if anyone
needed a golden ticket

right about now,
it was me.

This doesn't happen without you.
Thank you.

So proud of you.

Spencer James.

Man, what'd
I tell you?

That kid has a chance
to be special.

He already is.

Oh, yeah,
thanks to you.

No. Kid makes
me look good.

Heh. Now,
we both know

it's not easy to develop
raw talent like that, man.

My head coach
is impressed.

For real? Coach mack?

He should be.

Spencer is a
once-in-a-generation talent.

I'm talking
about you, Billy.

- Say what?
- Mm-hmm.

Coach mack
wants to know if

you are interested
in coaching at

the next level.

I'm talking Angeles
Southern, man.

Billy, think
about it, man.

We would get
to work together,

and you could continue
to develop Spencer.

There it is.

- What?
- The package deal.

No. No, no, no. That's
not what this is, man.

No?

You are an elite
coach, Billy,

and we both know
that, right? Huh?

So. You interested?

Uh... yes. I am.
Ha ha!

My man.

Mm. Listen.

I will set something up
with you and mack.

Man, this is gonna
be fun, bruh.

All right.

Oh, and,
just so I know,

any idea which way
the kid is leaning?

Make him an offer.

Hey, Spencer.

You on your way home?

- Yeah.
- Good. Good.

Go home.
Get dressed up.

See you tonight.

Thank you.

I wanted to deliver
that myself

instead of
coach king.

You know, we got limited
space at Angeles Southern.

Yes, sir.

We're gonna
make room for you.

For real?

Well, it's not
official until

you get your offer
letter, but, uh,

it's on its way.

You should know, um, we
take care of our own, so,

if there's anything
you need, anything,

you come to me.

Yes, sir.

Welcome to asu, son.

So, Chris just
left without

saying good-bye to you?

He's probably just upset
about the combine and...

I don't know. Maybe he
just needs some space.

Hmm. Look at you
being all understanding.

He's my boyfriend.

Glad you
remembered that.

What's that
supposed to mean?

I can't believe your
emergency this morning

was saving Asher.

He's in a bad place
right now.

I mean, I've been there,
and I was lucky.

I mean, what saved
me was a family

who forced me to get
the help that I needed.

We just need to be
that family for Asher.

Hey, baby.

Hey.

I got big news.

I heard.

You did?

You got an invite to
that 7-on-7 scrimmage.

Billy texted me.

That's not
the big news, ma.

You might want
to sit down for this.

I'll stand.

I'm going to Angeles
Southern University.

They about to offer me
a full ride.

That way I can stay close
to home, and we can just...

Angeles Southern?

No. You're not making
this decision now.

It's a good school, ma.
We did it.

Not good enough.

Not for you.
Not academically.

You worked
too hard for this.

Yeah, you right. I did
work hard for this.

That's why it's
my decision.

Let me stop you
right now.

You best believe
this is our decision.

Ma, this full
scholarship means

you can finish your
degree right now.

I did not
send you to Beverly

and quit night school so you
could sell your future short.

I made those
sacrifices...

You think I like living
in somebody else's house?

Helping my little brother with
his homework over the phone?

You not the only one making
sacrifices here, all right?

I'm gonna need you
to take that bass

out your voice
right now.

I'm sorry.

But it is
my decision.

And I decided that asu is
the right place for me.

That's it.
I'm doing this for you,

for Dillon, and me.

That's it.

Good evening.

Uh, can I talk to
you for a second?

Yeah. Give me
a minute, guys.

Everything ok?

Yeah. All good.

I just wanted to thank
you for the invitation.

Listen...

Hey, hey.

Whatever's in that
envelope belongs to you.

Keep it.

I'm sure that'd be
a big help to your mother.

It's not easy being the
only parent in the house.

Brett hanson.
My dawg.

Cam, I thought
I missed you.

Ha! Nah, man.

Just had to make
a quick stop.

You know, cinderella
don't come to the ball

till she gets her
glass slippers.

You're gonna
have a lot of fun tonight.

You both deserve
a little something special

after today.

So, what,
you taking money now?

Didn't you?

I thought you wanted
Angeles Southern.

No, I want the scholarship,
not the money.

Ok. Whatever.
Do you.

Look,
one phone call,

and you lose
your eligibility.

That's high school,
college.

Asu already got
what they need

to keep you, dawg.

That money
ain't a gift.

It's leverage
so you gotta commit.

I ain't stupid.
I know what this is,

and I'm good
with it.

So, when they give me
that scholarship,

I'm gonna take it.

So, you're cool with
being bought and paid for?

I ain't got
no fairy godfather

in Beverly Hills.

I just got football.

So, I'm gonna use it
for what I can get

as long as I can.

That's the game.

Now, if you'll
excuse me,

I'm going to go
get me one of them

tiny-ass plates.

Dad,
you have a visitor.

All right, let's
make this quick, son.

I'm already late
for the showcase dinner.

Yes, sir.

I, um...

I wanted
to thank you.

I know that I let you
down at homecoming.

I just... I really
appreciate you

giving me
this chance.

Ok, well,
you're welcome.

Junior college coach even
expressed interest today.

Thinks I can go on
to a d-i school.

All right.

Since he
didn't say anything,

I'm guessing you
didn't tell the coaches

that I was kicked
off the team.

They didn't ask.

But, uh,
understand this.

If someone does
ask me directly,

I ain't lying
for you.

One more thing.

Olivia has fought
really hard

to get her life
back together.

And now she
seems determined

to help you
do the same.

Do not drag her
back down with you.

Do not.

She sees something
in you, ash.

Please prove her right.

I appreciate you
guys on that.

Thanks. I appreciate
that. Good to see you.

- Great work today.
- You, too.

See you. Yeah.

Hey, coach.

Mm. To a great combine.

Or maybe we can toast

the next great asu
quarterback, Jordan Baker.

What did you
want me to say?

Ok, look,
you did fine today, ok?

You have all the necessary
tools, man.

You got a strong arm.
You're a smart kid.

Ok, but?

Something's holding
you back.

I mean, great players,
they just play,

but you, you hesitate
under pressure.

And you gotta figure out
why for yourself.

What do you think?

I'm... I'm sorry.
What did you say?

I just asked if
coach Baker's planning

to use you any differently
in the playoffs.

Yeah. I, uh... maybe.

You haven't been
game planning?

No, we... we have.

No, coach and I...

Actually, I was hoping

to transfer to Malibu
next year.

Is this about
Baker bringing in

the kid
from crenshaw?

No. It's not.

It's because
I got myself

kicked off the team.

We hear congratulations
are in order.

I don't know
about all that.

What? Did you change
your mind about

committing to
Angeles Southern?

I found two gs
in my invitation envelope.

What'd you do with it?

Tried to give it
back to hanson.

He wouldn't take it.

A booster?
Are you sure?

He didn't bother with
seeming surprised.

Look, I can't lose
this scholarship.

All right.

Clean programs, they
don't want boosters

putting their
players' eligibility

at risk, so...

I'll handle this.

Say.

Hey.

What's going on,
brother?

There's something
I think you should see.

Let's talk
about it.

Wait. So, you know
about the money.

There's been
a misunderstanding.

Hanson gave a potential
recruit money.

It's that simple.

Baker, this is
only a big deal

if you turn it
into one.

Payoffs.
Booster gifts.

That's how the recruiting
game is played.

You are putting these
kids' futures at stake,

their families' futures.

The only futures
at risk here

are yours
and Spencer's.

Whistleblowers
get coaches fired,

and a kid like that
can't be controlled,

and that kind of trouble
isn't worth

the risk to us.

So, if the James kid
really wants

to join our program,

you get that boy
to play ball.

Well, if you think
that I'm gonna let you

compromise Spencer

or any of my boys,

you got another
think coming.

Hmm.

Man, boy.

Then I guess
the James kid

isn't Angeles
Southern material.

And neither are you.

Coach king
can do that?

Just not let me play
after I earned it?

I'm not
the coach here.

So, what, I'm just
supposed to stand there?

What do I do if
another recruiter asks?

You're gonna say
you're injured

and that you can't play.

Come on, man.
Ain't no way.

Yeah. I'm sorry,
Spencer,

but you did
really well yesterday,

and the scouts
will remember that.

But if you end up
suiting up,

then people are
gonna ask questions,

and even though
you did nothing wrong,

those questions are gonna end
up being marks against you.

How is this fair?

It's not, son.

It's not fair.

Look, I know it sucks
not making the cut,

but, I mean, you just
disappeared on me.

Wasn't just
the 7-on-7.

Are you gonna
tell me, then,

because if you don't,
I'm gonna think it's me.

Oh, it is me.

It's just this was
a big weekend for me.

You know?

And you're with Asher
the whole time.

You know there's
nothing between

me and Asher, right?

Ok, ah, I know that,
all right?

All I'm saying is,
yesterday was tough,

and it just sucks

that I have
to disappear

for you to see
all that.

Ok, you know what?
Forget it.

I shouldn't have
even said nothing.

No, no, hey,

I'm glad
you did,

and I'm...
I'm sorry

I didn't see how hard
yesterday was for you

because I've... I've
never seen you shaken.

Not by gunshots
or slut-shaming.

I'll look harder
next time,

and as for Asher...

Nah, I know y'all
been cool for a minute.

Yeah, no,
it's not that.

Last year, I didn't
ask for help,

and it almost
cost me my life.

You mean when... when
you were an addict?

It's not
a past-tense thing.

Um... I didn't stop
being an addict

when I
stopped using,

and a part of how
I deal with that is

by helping others.

Like Asher.

I get it if
you don't want to

be a part of that
or if I'm, like,

too complicated or...

I can't like you
for your heart

and be mad
when you use it.

Sorry.

You're good.
You're good.

- Heh.
- Hey.

Do your thing.

All right.
It's all good.

Ma? What are you
doing here?

What are you doing?

Asu coach won't
let me play.

Billy already
told me.

Doesn't explain
why you leaving.

Look, if the scouts
think I'm injured,

they won't think
I'm trouble.

Since when do you care
what other people think?

You've given up
so much for me.

I wanted the scholarship
for you.

The same way you want
what's best for me,

I want what's best
for you, too.

Ma, your dreams
are important, too.

Yes, our dreams
are important,

but not at the expense
of who we are.

You did the right thing
not compromising

yourself for
a scholarship,

but I'll be damned
if I let you back down.

Don't play that game.

Play yours.

Asher? You in here?

Your dad would
kill you if he knew

you were in
the locker room.

Well, I wanted
to check in.

I'm sorry they cut
you from the showcase.

I knew honesty
had its consequences.

Never really believed you
about the rewards, though.

Rewards?
What happened?

I'm back on the team.

What? What?

Why didn't you
tell me?

It just happened.

Your dad said that me
telling that coach the truth,

it showed him that
I was finally willing

to own my crap.

You know,
take accountability.

Olivia, thank you.

No, I didn't
do anything.

Yeah. You did.

Ok, well, I'm not
done yet.

Asher, you can't keep
sleeping in your car

for a gazillion
reasons, but...

I think I have
a solution.

Yo, coach's son keeps

overthrowing me, man.

I told y'all he ain't
no real qb.

You gonna let him
talk to you like that?

Yeah, he's right, ok?

What you mean,
he's right?

He ain't right.

Easy. It wasn't
perfect, but...

Th... there's no "but" after

"it wasn't perfect," ok?

Hold up. What's
that supposed to mean?

It means stop
patronizing me

and start pushing me
to be the best.

Ok, grandpa Willie
was right. I'm...

I'm not ready
for all this.

I warned you about
letting that man

get inside
your head, boy.

Dad, would I have even
made the showcase

if I wasn't your son?

Look, even if that
did play a role,

and that's a big "if,"

what matters
is what you do

with the opportunity.

Hey. Hey.

What the hell
are you doing?

Get in there
and own your spot, man.

Keep firing.

It ain't on you if cam
won't go up and get it.

Thought you were
injured or whatever.

Look, scouts can
think what they want.

If coach king won't
give me a chance,

then that's on him,
but i'MMA be right here.

And when I do get
my shot, ain't nobody

forgetting about me.

You know what?
To hell with this.

Both y'all get warm.

You're gonna get
another shot at

that next series. Go. Go.

Let's do it.

All right.

What the hell
is going on?

Jordan and Spencer
are gonna play

in this next series.

And if not, I'm going
straight to the ncaa.

I'm gonna start
whispers about

there being
a dirty coach at asu.

I'm wondering how much
longer that program's

gonna protect you
once I start

giving interviews
to ESPN about

how you're
making payoffs.

You won't ever
coach again.

Excuse me.

Fight the d.
Wide, hut!

Whoo.

- Money.
- Ok.

Ha!

That's a damn fine
play, yo.

No, dad,
that's all Spence.

Yo, those views
for real?

Yeah, man.
250,000 and climbing.

What? Did you post that?

Uh-uh. Got posted to
some recruitment site.

We didn't even know about
it till jj hit us up.

Yeah.

Ah. Explains
why I got a call

first thing this morning from the s.E.C.
Scout asking about you.

- For real?
- Uh-huh.

'Cause of the video?

No. When one big dog
starts sniffing around,

you can expect the rest
close behind.

Well done, y'all. Yeah.

Whoa!
Appreciate you.

Way to get it done.
Want to see it again?

Yeah.

Wait a minute. You
want me to do what?

Asher's homeless,
and you have

a big, empty house
just sitting here.

It makes sense.

You serious
right now?

There's gotta be
somewhere else he can stay

other than my house.

His dad
kicked him out.

He's living
in his car.

He has no one
and, look, yes,

he's made
some mistakes, ok?

All four of us have.

But somehow,
he's the only one

still paying for it.

It's your house,
and I trust you.

Yeah. That's it?

If you want me to
tell you I was wrong

about you
being ready...

I want you to tell me
what you see.

That's not a throw,
Jordan.

It's a catch,
Spencer's catch.

I know it,
and any scout

worth his salt
will know it, too.

- Ok.
- Ok what?

Ok, I want you to train me.

Why?

It took me a while to realize
how much the game meant to me.

Ok? That I wanted it
for me

and not my dad,
but now I know.

I want to be great,
and you're the only one

who's ever held me
to that standard.

You need to be
sure, kid.

Ain't gonna baby you.

Ain't got no time
for no whining.

I don't coach
like your daddy.

You're likely to hate me
before we're done.

Understand?

Yes, sir.

You sure about this?

You know where
the guest bedroom is.

So, what's
the special occasion?

Chicken pot pie's
a dead giveaway.

Wow. Didn't
even realize

I did that. Heh!

Yes.

I wanted to do something
special for you two.

What for?

Well, Spencer
helped me

realize something
yesterday.

Not only am I
your mother,

I'm also a member
of this family.

And in this family,

we don't let each
other settle

for anything less
than what we deserve.

And if I'm gonna
ask that of you,

I have to ask that
of myself, too.

So, today...

I picked up this
financial aid package

from the college.

To be honest,
it's not enough.

I'm gonna need
your help.

But if we agree
that this is

what's best for all of
us, for this family,

I promise to try
to do

what you two
do every day...

Make something special
of every opportunity

that you give me.

We're in.

Adult education
Grant application.

But that ain't nothing.

I got a hookup with

Mrs. G's
after-school program.

If I help out with
the little kids there,

you don't have to
pick me up till 7:45.

Totally free.

Hey, don't look at me.

That was all d.

Dillon, you never had a Ms. G.

How do you
know her?

Well, Spencer
isn't the only

James brother
who got game.

- Shut up!
- You know what?

Greg, move your head.
