Friday Night Lights (2006–2011): Season 1, Episode 10 - It's Different for Girls - full transcript

While everyone is focused on the cheerleaders, who have an upcoming competition, they focus on giving Lila a hard time. Smash begins to show signs of steroid abuse, and Coach Taylor finds another way to occupy his starting quarterback in an effort to squash Matt's efforts with the coach's daughter.

She's on the phone right now

with Matt Saracen.

It's becoming that thing

that we always knew was gonna happen

with our little girl.

Mr. Hunt's been scouting high school ball

since before we were born.

You make his top 100 list,

you're good to go.

You had a rough time out there tonight.

To be honest, I'm worried
about your strength and size.



So what you should work on

is lifting and conditioning.

Try to get some power in those
legs and upper body.

Did you hear what Lyla did?

Yeah, I did.

No, I haven't.

She slept with Riggins.

Anybody but her.

You go and steal a cripple's girl

but you won't fight a cripple?

You're a coward, Riggins!

You know me and the guys
always got your back.

We're gonna take care of this, man.

Let's do this.



Ready?
Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four, five.

Ride it, Brittany. Arms straight and tight.

Yeah.

Lyla, you're late.

I know. I'm sorry.

I don't want apologies.

The Classic is five days away

and you're a captain.

This is not acceptable.

- Do you understand?
- Yes, ma'am.

Is it wrong to enjoy this?

All right, let's do our liberties.

Girls on top are Jessica,

Grace, and Lyla.

Ready?

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two...

No, it's a basic liberty, Lyla.

Summer camp stuff.

What's going on with you?

I guess Tim Riggins banged
the balance right out of her.

Let's do it again.

It's like he doesn't want us to be together.

I don't know if that's...

I love my dad, but he is

a sick, twisted individual.

The only way to handle him

is to stand up to him.

Well, that's gonna be

kind of hard seeing

as he's kind of the coach.

- Don't worry.
- He's all bark and no bite.

Most of the time.

How about you come over tomorrow night?

I mean, is that gonna be okay

with your mom and your dad?

'Cause I don't know...

Matt, you gotta get out of that mindset.

Otherwise, he's just gonna squash this.

Uh, whatever,

whatever this is.

Right, and about that.

Um...

What happened on the field

the other night after the...

after the football game,

what I did, when I kissed you,
that was wrong.

And I just didn't want you to think that

I thought that maybe...

That's what I think about it.

I'll see you later.

You okay?

Yeah.

Need any help?

No, I got it.

I got it.

All right, son.

I don't know if I trust this thing.

Just special for you.

There you go.

Here, let me get the door.

Good job on the ramp, Dad.

Thank you, son.

Welcome home.

So what happened to your office?

Oh, I moved it upstairs.

No big deal.

Your mom did a pretty good job, huh?

Yeah, it's...
It's nice.

Yeah.

- What do you want to put this?
- Just right there.

So, uh...

So I'll be using the guest bathroom?

Well, yeah.

Okay.

I mean, we're gonna convert

the utility closet just as soon

as we can afford it.

Why don't we let him get settled in?

And, uh...you got some barbecue, right?

Oh, yeah, yeah.
I have it in the fridge.

Okay.

All right.

Thanks.

Friday Night Lights 1x10
It's different for girls

Sync: Tauri41

I've seen 'em, and that team
can't play a lick..

We oughta just send out the JV

and give our boys a rest.

Well, I hear you, friend,

but that's why Coach Taylor's

gotta be careful.

You know, too much confidence...

Can we please listen to

- something other than football?
- No.

It's giving me a headache.

Yes, we can, baby.

Do you want me to sing?

I love to sing.

No, please.

I'll be gone on Saturday.

Where are you going on Saturday?

There's this music
festival at Belton Lake.

Matt's gonna take me.

You're not going out
with Matt on Saturday.

We agreed that I get
one date a weekend.

Yeah, well, how you think

you're gonna get out to Belton Lake?

Landry's gonna take us.

Who is Landry?

That Lance kid.

You're not going to
Belton Lake with Lance.

You won't be going out
with Matt Saracen on Saturday

because Matt Saracen's gonna be with me

at the cheerleading thing.

- Are you serious?
- Yes, I am.

We're all going.

It's the Cheerleading
Divisional Championship.

No, it's not!

It's the Cheerleading Classic.

Well, I didn't read the whole email,

but it's important, and we're all going.

Let me think about that.

Pass.

Cheerleading is more
pointless than football.

That is a sexist...

a sexist remark

that you just made.

They support us

every weekend.

Now it's time for us to support them.

That's what's gonna happen.

End of conversation.

You people are sick.

And I want my own car.

She wants her own car.

Dream on, kid!

So I don't get it.

If we're suing 'cause we need money,

then how can we afford a lawyer?

He doesn't get paid unless we win.

So what am I supposed to do?

Nothing, he just wants
to visit with you.

Ask you a few questions.

He's a really nice man.

He's already helped us out a lot.

You okay with this?

Tomorrow night at 7:00.

We'll both be here with you the entire time.

Doesn't hurt to hear him out.

Doesn't mean I like it.

Are you sure you're gonna
be okay here by yourself?

Mom.

You call me on my cell
if you need anything.

Mom, I can take care of myself, all right?

Promise.

I...I promise.

- Love you.
- Love you too.

- Have a good day.
- Call me!

Love you!

Okay.

Have a good day.

Excuse me.

Hey!

Yo, new girl!

Where I'm supposed to be and like...

Hey, yo, hey, miss.

Look, I'm sorry.
I don't know your name yet.

All right, look.
Slow up, slow up.

Talk to the Smash.

All right, well, I'll call you
back later, okay?

All right, bye.

Well, isn't that cute?

Look, I'm just here to
bring out the welcome wagon.

Hold up. Waverly?

Hello, Brian.

Damn, girl!

Look, I don't know where you been,

but time's sure been good to you.

Well, thank you.

- It's been a while, I know.
- It's been a little bit.

- It's been a little bit.
- Oh, there, hold on.

I gotta go, that's my dad.

I'll see you later.

Brian in the flesh.

How you doing, son?

I'm good, Pastor.

I see you catching up with my daughter.

Yeah, we just...

Yeah, we just catching up.

All right.

You remember me now, right?

Oh, yeah.

You have a good day, all right?

Yes, sir.

Right.

Out of your league, Williams.

- You know that.
- No such thing.

Smash is one size fits all.

Ain't her dad a preacher?

What you know about it?

Last time you been
south of the border,

you was with your mama

on your very first birthday.

My mom lives in Oklahoma.

Hey, I bet you 100 bucks Saracen
gets up on Coach's daughter

before Smash even touches
that Waverly priss-ass Grady.

Mmm, done, baby.

How about it, QB1?

Think you can get the v-chip out of Julie

before I can work my magic?

I think you should shut up.

Oh, come on, man.

You afraid of a little
bet or something?

I think it's a good time
to stop talking.

Come here.

Oh, we just talking
a little smack, Coach.

Five, six, seven, eight.

D.H.S.!

We're back again!

Blue and gold!

Let's win!

Panthers!

Let's practice our scales.

Y'all get in your stunt groups.

Don't worry about it.
Just be tight.

- You'll be fine.
- Sweet.

Maybe we get can some tips on...

- ... your favorite sexual position.
- Shut up, Brittany.

I'm tired of hearing it.

Wow, my arm's a little sore.

Hope I can hold the cradle.

Five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...

Are you okay?

What the hell is your problem?!

It wasn't her. It was you.

Hey, enough! Quit it.

Hey! What is going on over here?

Anybody? Please enlighten me.

Whatever is going on
between you guys,

you need to work it out.

Now we have been working
for this Saturday all year.

And I don't know what
you've been doing all week.

- Are you with this team?
- Yes, ma'am.

- You're sure.
- Yes, ma'am.

All right, then.
Let's do it again.

Hey, Jason!

How are you?

I'm fine.

I missed you guys.

Look, he's back.
I told you he would be.

Hey, squirt.

Been watching the Cowboys this year?

Yeah.

Can you walk?

Jake, that's not very nice.

- Sorry.
- It's okay. It's all right.

No, buddy, I can't yet.

But, uh...

I bet I could beat you in a race.

Come on, buddy.

All right, you got me that time.

Want to do it again?

I probably shouldn't, buddy.

I don't sweat like normal people anymore.

Come on, it's time for your snacks anyway.

You guys can play later, all right?

All right. See you later, Jason.

Hey, Jake, don't play
in the street, all right?

- That's a one-time thing.
- All right, bye.

Hey.

Hi.

I have nothing to say to you.

Don't come back here.

Note Homer's double standard in how Ulysses

is treated with extreme forgiveness

for his dalliance with Circe in the Odyssey.

Yeah, well, Ulysses was a pimp.

Look, I'm just saying.

It's all about the seed and the egg.

You know, the flower and the bee.

A man's job is to spread the pollen

and the woman's job is to grow it.

But you can only grow
one seed at a time, right?

I...I don't follow you exactly.

What I was trying...

I think what he's trying
to say is that

monogamy isn't natural.

The male species is hardwired
for genetic diversity.

So the instinct is to, you know,

fertilize as many eggs
as possible, to have sex.

Exactly.

Yeah, but human beings are different.

I mean, civilization is based

on the repression of instincts.

When we act contrary to our instincts,

that's when things get interesting.

A lot of people would say that monogamy

is a state of higher evolution.

With the right person.

What's up, baby? Listen.

I'm having a party. You should come.

We should kick it like a football, baby.

We're gonna have a little pool
party, a little suds

and buds, if you know
what I'm talking about.

No.

Everybody's cool with your little trip.

If that's what you're into.

But I'm not gonna judge it.

I love it...
What's up?

What's up?

What's up, Riggs?

I was just leaving.

Man. What are you doing?

Don't you know you're sitting
with the school slut?

Let 'em look, Lyla.
I don't care.

It's different for girls.

You can sleep around all you want

and people think you're cool.

I make one mistake...

And it was a mistake.

Tim, you're making it worse.

You can't be here.

What the hell was that?

What are you talking about?

Sitting with Lyla in the cafeteria.

Don't you know you're just
making this worse for her?

Yeah, she kind of
just mentioned that.

Why don't you stay away
from her, then?

Stay out of it.

You're in love with her.

Yeah.

What do you got?

Oh, good, good, good.

That's what I thought,
that you had that one.

- Sweet.
- Good job, sir.

- Good day.
- Is that 12?

It was 12.

Oh, yeah, that's what we like to hear.

Hello, Ben. Ben Beck.

Long time no see.

Now I will warn you, I am hot.

You walk in here tonight,
you may drive out

in a new truck, I'm not kidding you.

Are you all right, partner?

You look like you just seen a ghost.

I want you to know.

Brittany put some stuff
on the internet about Lyla.

Other kids added to it, but

I'm pretty sure Brittany's
the one who started it.

Stuff on the internet.

What...what are you talking about, Ben?

It's bad. I'm not gonna lie to you.

Alice is home with her right now

trying to figure out what
in God's name possessed her.

I felt like I owed you
an apology in person.

Lyla doesn't deserve this.

No matter what she did.

It was medieval.

You know, it was like The Scarlet Letter

or something watching that girl

walk across the cafeteria

and everybody just glared at her.

That's high school.

At least they didn't
burn her at the goal post.

I'm telling you...

Go see who that is, please.

Uh, hey, sir.

Ma'am.

I was just wondering...

Sorry, I was just wondering if...

Is Julie here?

Hey, Matt.
Hi, Dad.

Me and Matt are gonna go watch some TV.

If that's okay.

Hey, Mom.

We're gonna watch some TV.

Hi, Mrs. Coach.

All right, um, well...

What about tackling drills?

Y'all do a lot of those?

Yes, sir, every day,
every single day.

Coach used to always yell
at practice that, uh,

"Good defense wins football games."

I mean you personally.

Me personally?

- Yeah, mm-hmm.
- Tackling drills?

I was the quarterback.

Yeah, I realize that.

But I was just wondering if at any time

during a practice or a scrimmage

or really any time at all

before you got hurt in that game,

did Coach Taylor ever
personally instruct you,

Jason Street, on how to make a tackle?

He didn't have to.

Okay.

Because I played quarterback.

Okay, so that's a no.

I guess so, I...

Are you trying to say this
is Coach Taylor's fault?

No, no, I'm just trying
to find out what happened.

'Cause I threw the interception.

And I got pissed off and I
went and tackled somebody.

That was...
that's how it happened.

I know, I know, but when
you tackled him

you had your head down because no one

had ever taught you any other way...

I cannot believe this...
you said if we were gonna

sue anybody, it was gonna be
the school, Dad.

We said nothing about Coach Taylor.

Jason, take it easy.

This was not Coach Taylor's fault.

Coach Taylor did not
make that tackle, I did.

I know, and...

Sir...sir...y'all...
y'all can try and get me to say

whatever you want me to say,

but I'm not gonna say
that it was Coach's fault.

All I want you to do is tell the truth.

And that's what you've done, right?

Honey, will you stop pacing, please?

What do you suppose they're doing in there?

Probably having sex.

That's not funny.

Well, it's a little bit funny.

- That's not funny.
- Sit down and play cards.

I don't like the fact
that he just shows up here.

That's not right.

Well, I don't necessarily
like it much either.

- Where are you going?
- I'm gonna go out there.

Come back here right now.

I'll be back in a second,
I'ma get something to drink...

Don't go out there.
Don't...

You...you warm enough?

Yeah, I'm good.

All right.

Hey, how we doing out here?

Uh, good.

We're just watching TV.

What's with the blanket?

Who told you you could
get a blanket out?

It's cold in here.

That's 'cause I like
to keep the AC low.

Yeah, hence the blanket.

How much longer till
the program's over, honey?

Dad.

It's a school night, honey.

It's 9:00, Dad.

Yeah, but I probably...

I should probably get going
home anyway though.

No, no, no, you really
don't have to.

No, no, no, I don't like to
leave my grandma home at night.

So it's probably better...

Will you just tell...

Good night, Mrs. Taylor.

Oh, good night, Matt.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Good night, Coach.

Bye, Matt.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Bye, Matt.

Thanks.

Sorry, babe.

They had a blanket.

You're an idiot.

- Hey, you.
- Hey, Daddy.

You okay?

Yeah.

Just doing some research.

Um, Mom and I, we're turning in.

Good night, Daddy.

Good night, baby.

We'll see you in the morning.

All right, thank you, ladies.
Can I have your attention?

We're hunting for a big "W"
this weekend.

But I think everyone should
know that these ladies

sitting up front right here
also are gonna be hunting

for their own "W" this weekend.

Because Saturday they're gonna be

at the Cheer America
Championship Classic.

Suzanne, if you'd step up here.

Ms. Der, if you'd step up here please.

Let's give a big hand.
Suzanne.

From the team, I just want to say...

I want to say from us to you,

good luck, go get 'em,

and this time we're gonna
be supporting you.

All right?

Well, thank you, Coach.

Just one more thing.

Ladies!

Blue! Gold!

Go, Panthers!

Blue! Gold!

Go, Panthers!

Go, Panthers! Go, Panthers!

Go, Panthers! Go, Panthers, Go!

Matt Saracen's got some nice looking legs.

Go, Panthers!

Go, Panthers!

Hey, where's Lyla?

How should I know?

I don't know. She's not out there.

Hi, Lyla. Missed you at the pep rally.

What's the matter?

Well, that's just bush league.

We don't listen to those jackasses.

Come on.

I just thought, let 'em talk, you know?

Let 'em say what they're
gonna say, and I'll just...

tough it out.

I'm quitting the cheerleading team.

That's a big move.

Sure you want to do that?

My parents dressed me up
in cheerleader outfits

and took me to Panthers
games since I was five.

Becoming a cheerleader for
the Dillon Panthers was like

this dream come true.

And I bought into it.

But you know what?

The truth is since Jason's accident,

I've been pretending.

And I am done pretending,
Mrs. Taylor,

that I care about any of this.

Come on, Smash, get out there!

Go!

What was that number?

- 4-4 something.
- What?

- 4-4-6.
- Let me see that.

Damn, either they're getting
slower or he's getting faster.

One or the other.

Must be eating his Wheaties.

Whatever he's eating, let's
make sure he keeps eating them.

Hey, that's nice, Smash.
Come on, set it up again now.

What?

- I just need to talk to you for a minute.
- Go ahead.

Look, I don't want this
whole thing to be awkward.

You don't want what to be awkward?

This whole thing between Julie and I.

- Julie and me.
- Huh?

It's Julie and me.
It's a common mistake.

- Go ahead.
- Right, it's just...

Look, I'm kind of sensing that...

I'm sensing that you have a problem with it.

You're sensing right.

We're both interested in each other, okay?

And...and I'm not gonna stop seeing her

because of you or because
of anybody else...

Saracen, stop right there.

If I don't want you seeing my daughter,

you're not gonna see my daughter.

- No, you don't understand...
- You can go now.

I don't think you heard what I said.

You can go now.

- But...
- You can go now.

Have you talked with Jason?

No.

He won't even come near me.

Sweetheart...

Listen, look at me.

I know you feel awful.

Okay?

If there was some magic thing

I could do to make all this go away,

believe me, I would do it.

But I can't.

You made a mistake and it's over.

And the important thing is

is that you learn something from it.

You know what my mama used to say?

God created sin so that we
might know His mercy.

- Okay.
- Okay?

Hold up. Where's the okra?

I've been making this gumbo

since Michael Jackson
had a nose like yours.

You're messing me up now.

Sheila, look, you can't
dress like that for Pastor.

You get changed.
I'll finish this up.

And you're just running around here.

Go calm down somewhere.
And Sheila looks fine.

She look all right.

Did you hear that?

Coming!

Hey, how you doing, Brian?
You all right?

Good to see you, son.

- Hey, what's up, Wave.
- Hi.

- Family dinner.
- Yeah, a little something.

Nice, very nice.

Oh, Lord, bless this food,
sanctify it.

Let it be nourishment to our
bodies, minds and spirits.

In Jesus' name we pray you thanks.

-Amen.
-Amen.

All right, spill it, Wave.

Now, Brian, we just sat down here.

It's all right, Mama.

I just want to know
what she been up to.

I think Daddy would rather
talk about football.

You were in Africa, right?

It was kind of missionary work?

No, it was actually like

a Christian outreach program.

- Okay.
- Got a friend of mine.

He's a big, you know, muckety-muck

in the Episcopal Church.

And they do a lot of helping people out.

They're building houses and hospitals.

And so they took my baby girl away.

You know, they got a lot of resources.

Doing things that we can't do,

so you know how it is.

So what was it like?
I mean, you got any pictures?

Shoot, I've never even been outside Texas.

I don't know.

It was fun, hard work, nice people.

Well, you know, since she's back

we're trying to re-focus

and get our eyes back on this college thing.

Oh, I know that's right.

Education goes a long way.

Football don't last forever.

You know, since you mentioned that,

Brian, how's that SAT class going?

Oh, it's good. It's going real good.

Yes?

I guess...I guess what
I came here to tell you

is that Lyla is completely
in love with you.

And always has been and always will be.

She's going through hell right now, Street.

Hell.

I'm sure she is.

People at school are just ripping on her.

I mean, she quit cheer. She's losing it.

And I know it means probably
nothing coming from me.

But I thought you should know.

Well, I'm sure you can
help her out with that.

I messed up.

- Tim...
- I messed up big time.

And I'm sorry.

Not right now.

Hey, morning, babe.

Listen, we need to get going early today.

The brake fluid lights are on the truck.

I gotta pick some up.

You need to tell me when that happens.

- I did tell you.
- I have a ride.

You have a ride? With who?

With Matt.

And we're going to the movies on Saturday.

Excuse me?

Saturday, we're going to the movies,

and we'll be back for the cheerleading thing.

And there. So I'm gonna go.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Where are you going,

and are they here?

Out front? What...honey...honey...

Hey.
Hey, hey, hey!

Hey, how y'all doin'?

Coach.
Miss...Mrs. Coach.

Julie...Julie...

Who is that other one in the...

Who's driving the car?

- Y'all please drive safely!
- See y'all later.

Watch the curb, whoever you are.

Tell you what I'm gonna do

is I'm gonna have a talk with that boy.

You're gonna have a talk with Matt Saracen?

I'm gonna have a Matt chat
is what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna have a little Matt chat.

Sounds like a truly terrible idea.

Wescott's last five games.

I want you to take a look
at those over the weekend,

and Monday morning, first thing,

I want you to be able to talk about

their defense knowledgably.

Y-y-you want me
to do this over the weekend?

That's right. Is that a problem?

I...I kinda had plans
with Julie this weekend.

Oh.

Well, I wasn't aware of that.

But I do know that you're QB1

on the Dillon Panthers,

and this team's got a damn good chance

of making the playoffs.

So I'm sure you'll prioritize.

Yes, sir.

We're gonna go get 'em tonight.

I told you, I'm not going
all the way over there

for some stupid football game.

Then how about after?

I'll pick you up at your house.

Hey, Smash.

- Hey.
- Have a great game tonight.

I will.

And we will be watching.

Don't...don't even worry about them.

Don't even worry about them.

Okay, look, we had dinner,

and you asked me all your questions.

And blah, blah, blah.
We caught up.

So just go score some goals.

You know I ain't gonna
give up that easy.

Smash don't take no for an answer.

Yeah, but he loves to refer to himself

in the third person.

Which, by the way,

is incredibly annoying.

Right now, Smash! Coach is pissed!

- Bus is leaving.
- I'll be right there, sir!

- Hurry up!
- I'm comin'!

Miniature golf.

You and me.

Nobody from the team. No football talk.

What do you say? We on?

I'll think about it.

Well, the game's over,
and the Dillon Panthers

put a world of hurt on the
winless Timberwolves tonight.

First quarter, Matt Saracen
gives to Smash Williams

for an easy score
and an early seven-points lead.

Fix it.

And that was the story tonight

as young Mr. Williams

lit the Timberwolves defense up

for 166 yards rushing,,

- Good game.
- Seven receptions,

and three, count 'em, three touchdowns.

Halftime featured a performance

by the Dillon JC Drill Team,

who are competing in tomorrow's

Cheer America Championship Classic.

Get up.

- Matthew.
- Yeah?

Okay, your part's starting.

What did I tell you? Huh?

If you move those feet...
look at that.

I gotta watch these game tapes, okay?

Oh! Oh, that's...

I got my eyes set on UT now.

Oh, yeah? That's a really good school.

You think you have a chance?

Hell, yeah.

Long as I stay healthy and get my touches.

Well, no, I meant academically.

'Cause it's really hard
to get in there now,

even if you are in-state.

Yeah, well, I'm working
on my studies and stuff.

All right, you might wanna start
by doing your homework.

You, uh...

still thinking about med school?

Wow, you don't forget anything, do you?

Steel trap, baby.

Steel trap.

I still remember when we first moved here.

Ooh, yes.

It'd be you, Sheila,

and Missy in the back of the choir room

playing doctor.

You never let me play, though.

Well, that's because you
always wanted to play dirty,

and we were running
a nice, clean hospital.

It ain't my fault you always
needed an operation, baby.

I was just trying to help you out.

Whatever.

I don't know.
People change, and..

that may not be the best thing
for me right now.

Although I know it would
make Daddy happy.

Yeah, well, your dad is the man.

I mean, letting you go
to Africa and all.

I guess.

You know, most people
who do something like that

talk about it all the time.

You know, letting you know

how in touch with their roots they are.

Hey, girls, look, it's Smash.

And you don't want to talk about it.

Hey!

Hey. Good game. That was awesome.

Hey, look, we going all the way to state.

Oh, yeah, we are.

Pack your bags, baby.

Pack your pompoms.

Make sure to bring a swimsuit too.

Sorry, I get a little bit
excited about it.

Hey... your nose is bleeding.

You okay?

- I'm cool, I'm cool.
- Sit down for a second.

Sorry, this is a little embarrassing.

You know,

I don't think you spent that money

on an SAT class.

Yeah?

Well, I'm...

I'm starting to think
you didn't go to Africa.

Please say something.

What do you want me to say, Lyla?

That everything's fine?

'Cause I'm sorry, I can't do it.

I don't lie as well as you do.

I'm so sorry.

It was one mistake.

One mistake...

would have been you cheating on me.

But two was when

- Please stop.
- you lied to me.

Three was when I found out
it was with my best friend.

What else you gotta tell me, huh?

What else you wanna get off your chest

while you're out here
feeling sorry for yourself?

I was there for you, Jason!

I was the only one
that was there for you!

Every single day!

I was there for you every night!

I made one mistake!

That's great. You want credit?

You want credit for sticking by me?

I did not ask for this.

And I damn sure did not ask

for the one person in this world that I loved

to break my friggin' heart.

I didn't ask for this either, Jason.

Seeing you in that hospital
broke my heart.

I was so lost and alone.

And I screwed up.

And if you choose to never
forgive me for that,

I understand.

Believe me when I say
that you are all that I have

in the whole world.

All I have.

I just can't.

I can't!

I just can't.

And we are here to represent
the Panthers, right?

All right, let's go. Come on, girls!

Hey, hey! Here we go!

- Honey, you're late. We got to go.
- I know I'm late.

We started at the crack of dawn,

and the round took six hours.

- Slow over there.
- How'd you play?

I don't wanna talk about it.

I'll tell you what we gotta do, though,

is I gotta...I gotta maybe
sell the house,

and then I get a membership

over at Buddy's country club.

What we need to do is
we need to go.

You want me to make you a sandwich?

Yeah.

- Well, hurry up.
- No tomato, please.

- Mustard.
- Well, hurry it up,

because we got to go.

- The cheerleading thing is now.
- Where's Julie?

Well, our daughter Julie
is going to meet us there

because she's getting a ride

with Matt Saracen.

What do you mean, a ride with Matt?

Well, she's been over at his house

all morning long, going over

some game tapes that, uh, you gave him

to work on this weekend?

- Oh.
- Hmm.

Yeah, well, I didn't know that...

Yeah, apparently the Matt chat

didn't go as well as you expected.

Oh, and she wanted me to tell you to go

right strong ISO when you're
in the nickel package.

apparently, they got a corner
that's short and slow.

So your daughter is now
interested in football,

which is another thing
you got going for you.

- She said that?
- Mm-hmm.

- She said it like that?
- Good job, coach.

That's pretty good.

Ma'am.

I'm sorry to bother you.

What do you want, son?

Sir, I just want a minute
with your daughter, sir.

What are you doing here?

Guys, I'll be right out.

I'll be right out.

You know that cheerleading
thing you have today?

- Regionals.
- The championships?

I think you should go.

Why?

Because you're an amazing cheerleader,

and I think you have that same feeling

that I get when I play.

The "nothing else matters" feeling.

I think...

I think you need that right now.

I don't wanna see you give up...

because of what we had between us.

Whatever...
whatever it was.

All right, let's go!

See? I told you.

They're still doing
the individual competition.

They always do
the individual first.

You just wanna be the coach of everything.

No, you just like to rush us
out of the house all the time.

Where's Julie?

All right, y'all remember.
It's N.H.F.S. rules.

That means no jewelry whatsoever.

No belly rings, no tongue rings,

anything like that.

If you have scorpion double downs,

if you have scale double downs,

make sure that you have spotters.

One foot must be on the competition mat

at all times.

Also, as soon as the music begins,

the scoring process starts.

You got it?

Good luck, y'all. You're gonna do great.

Hey...

You all right?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm cool.

Just a little nosebleed, that's all.

"Little," hell.

I'll see you out there.

You liked every second of it.

How are you?
Hey, Coach.

- Good to see you.
- Good to see you.

Hey, man, how you doing?

I wish you could have been
out there on the golf course.

Good one. I wish I shot 64.

Hey.

- Excuse me.
- Excuse me.

- Excuse me. Kick butt.

Give me extra pins.

I don't want any bows flying on the...

I'm here.

- Hello.
- Hi.

A little late, aren't you?

- Yeah, sorry.
- Name.

Lyla Garrity.

Ohh.

Yeah, the whore with the web site.

Well, I thought

I heard you weren't going on.

Well, you heard wrong.

Sign me in.

You heard the girl.

Brittany, Lyla's flying.

"Go, Panthers" on three.

One, two, three...

Go, Panthers!

All right, you guys, line up.

Let's do this.
