Friday Night Lights (2006–2011): Season 2, Episode 4 - Backfire - full transcript

Eric quits his college coaching job to return home to his family and the Panthers, but the latter doesn't look very promising when the old coach fights his termination after only two games. Tim accompanies Jason to Mexico where a questionable medical procedure gives Jason hopes of walking again. After making an appearance in the Lord's name in a boys' home, Lila takes it upon herself to show a recently-release inmate the light. Landry's father is called into work after the body that he and Tyra disposed of is discovered.

Get in the house
right now.

What the hell are you doing? Get out now!

I am your mother!

Go to hell!

I hit Julie last night.

What are you doing?

I guess I feel closer to God if I'm with you.

Did you think that line
was going to work on me?

What if I told you I could make him go away

and you could have
your job back?

I'd say you're crazy.



I wish I was the one
who killed him.

Don't... Don't say that.

If anything happens to you
because of me,

I would never
forgive myself.

I'm going to Mexico.

I'm gonna have surgery.

I'll probably be walking
next time you see me.

Mexico, huh?

Can you get my money?
Get my money.

All right.

Hello, Mexico!

Hold on, hold on,
hold on, hold up.

What?

We're good. Clinic's gotta
be around here somewhere.



This is it, baby. This is the
place where miracles happen.

You ready for this? I'm ready for this.

I'm sorry,
but this is ridiculous.

I mean, you know you know how long
it took us to get here? I mean...

I'm sorry. Whoever made the
appointment made a mistake.

All right. When's the
doctor gonna be here then?

Probably some
time next week.

"Probably
some time next... "

Probably some time
next week?

This is insane!

What kind of office
is this? This...

Six, relax. You don't even know, like,

really when he's
gonna be here?

Do you run
this office or...

Look.

The doctor's on vacation with
his family. I don't know for sure.

Here's a card.

Call us in a week
and we fit you in.

Bye-bye.

Westcott's on fire.

Hand off up the middle. Big
hole. Oh! And another first down.

Pass! Pass!

Garcia's back to pass.

He's got a man. He's got
it. He breaks the tackle.

Oh! Touchdown, and Westcott goes up a bunch.

But did you see
what happened?

He threw it all the way and
the other team made a touchdown.

Our defending champs are
getting taken to the woodshed.

Saracen hands the ball
to Williams again.

Oh! And again, he is hit by
a wall of Westcott defenders.

That play just
is not working.

Williams on the draw and he's
hippity-hopping... Oh! And he gets nailed.

They're keying
on Smash.

Every play.
Every darn play.

Yep. Not much
imagination.

Coach MacGregor might
want to think... Saracen!

...about trying
something else.

His running attack with
Williams is dead in the water

and his team looks absolutely
frustrated out there.

Huddle up!
Let's go!

Come on, now!

All right.
Hey, listen up.

Pull a left draw to Smash.

This is retarded. We're running
the same play over and over again.

Hey, just run it. Nobody wanna hear you talk.

Yeah, well, I think they got an
idea we're about to run the ball.

You're not doing too
well without Riggins here.

Well, this is not your
call, is it? Guys! Come on!

Clock's running!
Let's do this.

Draw to Smash
on one. Ready?

Break!

Come on!

Black 12! Hut!

Saracen back to pass. No,
it's another draw to Williams.

And he has got
nowhere to go.

Oh! And he is
dropped for a loss.

And here come
the Boo Birds.

Hey, hey, hey! The Dillon Panther faithful

are not happy about this
coaching situation tonight, folks.

Rightly so.

The nail that doesn't
bend gets hammered.

Coach MacGregor has gotten pounded
all night with his ground attack.

Our state champions
of Texas

have gotten their
lunch handed to them

on their home field.

This is a sad,
sad state of affairs.

What are you
thinking about, MacGregor?

What a crock.

Pardon me? Don't piss on my shoes

and tell me
it's raining.

That's a good one.

We just feel like the team
needed to go in a new direction.

After two games?
Yes, sir.

After two games? Two games? This is...

We want to go ahead and pay
you for the entire season.

Plus, we're gonna give you a severance
package just to show you our good will.

I'll tell you one thing...
I'm really sorry it

worked out this way, sir.... there
ain't no good will in this room.

I'm sorry you
feel that way.

Pathetic.

Taylor, you got
a phone call.

Hello?

Eric, it's Buddy.
How you doing?

How am I? I'm in the middle of a damn game.

How'd you get
this number?

Oh, you know me.

Never mind that.

Listen. The eagle
has landed.

You what?

It's a done deal. We fired him this morning.

Hi. Lyla Garrity.

Okay, guys.
Take it easy.

I apologize for our boys. They
don't get visitors that often.

And so those are just a
few examples of why, um,

it's helpful to make choices in
our lives with Jesus in our lives.

Oh, man.

That's it.

Great, thanks.

Any questions?

Yo, I got
a question.

What color panties
are you wearing?

Ooh!

That's very funny, Dobbs.
Very funny. Five points.

There's more for the rest of you
if you don't cut it out. Calm down.

Yo, let me ask
you a question.

Let me ask you a question. I got a question.

If God's so great, then
why do we have wars, huh?

Did cat catch
your tongue?

I mean, look at Tony
over there, right?

I mean, why... Why is Tony's
parents drunk all the time?

Beating on him
and his sister?

Um, well, uh, that's
a good question.

Um...

I... Um... I just think
that... No disrespect,

but you people are always coming in
here, acting like you care, right?

When the truth is,

if you seen any one of us
on the street,

you'd just run
the other way.

So who's winning?

I don't know.
It's a tie right now.

So, um, I was wondering if
you could take me driving.

I can't do it right this
second, honey. I'm sorry.

Mom, I got my permit.
I need to practice.

I'm aware of that.

Okay. But it's kind of
like homework, you know?

Like, you need to practice in order to pass.

I'm not gonna do it right this
second. Gracie is almost asleep.

I'm exhausted. I'm watching your dad's game.

And I'm not gonna
just drop everything

every time you want me to
go do something. I'm sorry.

Why is it always
about the baby, Mom?

Shh. I'm still here,
okay. You know that, right?

You know, I'm still your daughter,
too. Just as much as little blob.

I'm aware of that,

but you don't have to act like
such a brat about it all the time.

Oh, I'm a brat. Okay, so you're just
gonna keep me locked in the house,

not let me drive, not let me date who I want?

I don't know what
we're talking about.

You know what? I'm gonna go
date the Swede just to spite you.

Oh, well, that's really mature. I hate you.

Come... Julie, come
back here right now.

What are we watching
right now, Six,

for the past week?

We're watching The
$10,000 Pyramid in Spanish.

We have
a bag of money.

We're in Mexico
for a week now.

A bag of money.
Booze. No women.

No stories.
No memories.

Well, guess what, Riggs? You
should've thought about all that

before you jumped in a truck
and came down to Mexico with me.

I'm down here for one reason.
That's to see a doctor.

This bag is not
a bag of memories.

It's a bag of $10,000
for said doctor. Okay?

So, until I see
said doctor,

we're not going anywhere
and neither is the money.

Yeah, you are. I don't even need that.

Let's go. Riggins, don't touch me.

Riggins, do not touch me. We're going out!

Riggins! Stop! We're going
out! No regrets, Six! None.

Stop! Ah!

Personal reasons?
Yes, sir.

Well, you, uh...

You knew your wife was pregnant
when you took this job, didn't you?

Yes, sir. That's true. Look, Coach, I...

I don't want to leave
you in the lurch.

I'm gonna be here the Rice
game, Oklahoma State game.

I figure in the bye week,
we can make the transition.

We take, uh... We take Frank,
put him up for quarterbacks.

I know it's your decision. I'm
just... I was just thinking about it.

I think that might be
a smooth transition.

You sure you
want to do this?

Coach, I have to.

All right.

Then you turn in
your ID downstairs

and I'll have Human Resources send
over a termination package tonight.

Tonight?
Yeah, tonight.

This isn't IBM, Coach.

I'm not interested in any exit
strategies or transition plans.

If you want to go, go, and I'll
deal with the situation right now.

So, good luck.

Hope you know what the hell you're doing.

That damn thing kept
scratching up my favorite chair.

And, um,
I told Landry, I said,

"It's either me or the cat
'cause one of us has to go. "

That's when I initiated the,
uh, outplacement procedure.

Yeah, that's
what he's calling it.

Technically,
Mr. Puddles,

If that's what
you wanna call it,

then you can call
it that,

was not all there.
Hello?

Because whenever...
Wait. Yo, hold up. Stop.

Hold on. His name was Mr. Puddles?

Ironically, he was a she. Yeah, go ahead.

Of course.
Okay.

Once again, being a genius and everything,

I still hadn't quite figured
out the whole helshe...

You can flesh
that whole genius thing out.

His bladder control,
which is why Puddles.

Sorry, guys,
I have got to go.

Uh, they just pulled
a body out of the river.

Sorry, baby. Save me a plate, okay?

Tyra, it's good
to see you again.

Landry, I'll talk
to you later, bud.

Holy, holy, holy

Lord God Almighty

Blessed trinity

Today, we're looking at
guilt and redemption.

Sin and grace.

Consider the story
of King David.

The beautiful Bathsheba
catches his eye.

He commits adultery with her and
decides he wants her as his wife.

This means getting rid
of her husband,

so David plans a conspiracy to
ensure the husband's murder in battle.

He thinks he
gets away with it.

But God sees
and God knows.

I'm telling you it...
It was like

everyone in
the entire church knew.

You're just...
You're just being paranoid.

I'm not. I'm not
being paranoid, Tyra.

How would
anybody know?

This isn't
some little thing.

This is ridiculous,

me thinking that no one's
gonna find out about this.

I know what
I've gotta do.

It's just it's stupid
for me to keep...

What are you talking about?

I've gotta go
turn myself in.

Explain to them this was
just... This was a huge accident

and just hope that they take it
easy on me because my dad's a cop.

Landry, that's not
gonna happen.

What do you think they're
gonna do? Why is that not...

Slap you
on the wrist?

I have no idea
what else to do.

We're in this
together, okay?

I can't. I can't keep doing
this. This is not just you.

We have no choice. You
understand? We have no choice.

We have no choice.

No, you're wrong.
We do have a choice.

I have a choice
to turn myself in

and that's what
I'm gonna do.

You wanna spend the rest
of your life in jail?

No, I... To spend the rest
of my life in jail or what?

What's the alternative? Spend
the rest of my life like this?

We're in this
together, okay?

It's us.

Pass, ma'am.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hey, um, if this is your
escape plan, it needs work.

Okay.

I was just kidding. I heard
you got out. Congratulations.

Yeah, I'm on probation now. Congratulations.

Okay.

What are you
trying to do?

I'm putting my money
where my mouth is. Come on.

So what are you gonna do? Do
you have any plans or anything?

Not really.

All right. Are you
gonna go to school or...

I guess so. Got to get a job, too.

I'm sure my probation lady will
be all over my ass about it.

What do your parents say?

Damn, you ask
a lot of questions, huh?

Sorry. I guess
I'm just interested.

If I tell you,
will you shut up?

I promise.

My parents are
in Mexico.

They got deported
two years ago.

Left me living with my uncle, who
has a son, my cousin, my homey.

He was a real inspiration to me and
taught me how to kill at selling weed

to white people like you.

Well, maybe not you, but, anyway,
that's how I got picked up.

Spent two years in juvie, blah, blah,
blah. And now I'm here. You happy?

Look. Stop here.

I can take you in.

You don't wanna bring this
car in here, believe me.

I gotta go.

Okay, well...
Wait. Can I...

Can I get your number?

Just so I can
keep in touch.

So if this surgery's so great,
why can't you just, uh...

Why isn't it
okayed in the States?

Because, like I told you,

between Washington
and the AMA,

it's gonna take forever to get it legalized
in America and I don't got forever.

All right? I don't even got a
month. I want out of the chair.

Yeah, but
you're saying...

The parallel bars and that guy that
could move his toes, you know...

I mean, that's...
Hey!

Neither... I want to
know if any of those guys

have walked again.
I can't hear you anymore!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I was asking if any of these
guys have ever actually walked.

No. Nobody else has walked
yet. It doesn't matter.

I told you, I'm a perfect
candidate for this surgery.

I already started regaining
feeling in my right hand. All right?

The other people
couldn't feel anything.

The guy that's doing the parallel bars had
no feeling in any extremity of his body.

Nobody else could
even move a muscle

In their arm before
they saw him. Now...

What?

ID.
Wallet? Wallet.

Riggins,
put those down.

He wants a beer.
Relax, Six.

No, just put them
down immediately.

Just don't talk back to me
right now, Riggins.

Here you go, sir.
Thank you, Officer.

Six, relax.

Yes, sir. I've been through this before.

He's not even talking to
anybody on the speaker.

He wants memories
as well, Six.

He wants a night on the
town. He wants some se?oritas.

I don't care.
What's it gonna take?

What are you doing?

What's it gonna take? You
want some memories, right?

Se?oritas.

Whoa! Whoa!

Cheers. Go Cowboys.

Sweet, Six.

Took you long enough. Now
those gals are probably gone.

Shut your mouth, Riggins. I should
have left you in there all damn night.

Your sad, sorry ass. I'm not supposed
to be spending my money on your bail.

It's for my surgery.
Yeah, it's my fault we find

the only honest
cop in Mexico.

Shut your ass, Riggins.

You know this money's for my
surgery. It's not for your damn bail.

What's your problem, Six?

You know what? I came down
here for a reason, all right?

And I know you think it's
stupid, but guess what? It's not.

I never said that. So you go ahead
and go out and get loaded tonight

and catch syphilis from
whatever skanky jailbait

random hooker or whore
you can find on the street,

but I'm going
back to the hotel.

Can you at least
buy me a couple tacos?

Oh, oh, oh, could it be?
Could it be?

Guess who's home.
Julie! Dad's home!

Jules?

What's up?
Hey, come here.

How are you? I'm good. I'm good.

I missed you.
Good to see you, kid.

Hey.
Hi, hon.

Hey, babe. How you doing? Good.

How's my little one doing? She's good.

Gracie, congratulations.
You're getting bigger there.

Why is Buddy Garrity here?

What's wrong, my child?

Hey, Buddy.
Hi, Buddy.

Hey. Look what I found sitting in the road.

Hey.
TAMl: Look at you.

Look what I found in the road.
Haven't seen you in a while.

I went and got it, put it
in the truck. Here it is.

Now, that's just a little... Go to your mama.

Take ol' Stinky Dirty. I'll
be in for dinner... All right.

...in a second, babe. Now,
honey, you just got home,

so y'all don't stay out here too long now.

I'll be in for dinner
in just a second.

Okay. He just
got home, Buddy.

Take care of the stuff I
asked you to take care of.

Nice to see you.
I appreciate that.

Great to see you.
You, too, Tami.

Hey, man.
How you doing?

Yeah, yeah. Y'all don't be long now.

No, no, no. What are you doing?

You got me under surveillance?
What, you been waiting

at the beginning of the
neighborhood or something

and following me in here?

MacGregor's gonna
fight us on this.

Huh?

Well, I just got the call
and that's why I ran over.

Evidently, he's apparently got some lawyer

and he refuses
to sign anything.

So there's an emergency
board meeting tomorrow.

What the hell you telling me?
You telling me I don't have a job?

No. No,
it's just, um...

It's just a little
complication, that's all.

You understand I signed
a no-compete, don't you?

I can't take on any
college jobs for two years.

You understand that,
don't you?

Well, yeah, that's standard. "Done. Done. "

That's what you said.
You said, "It's a done deal. "

"It's a done deal, Eric.
That's what it is. "

I know. I'm sorry.

What the hell happened
to the done deal?

I'm sorry.
It's just...

You're sorry? Now, we just got a little...

It's just a little hitch in
our get along. That's all it is.

Trust me.

I'm gonna
do my best.

What about... What about painting the garage?

Dad's obviously
never gonna do that.

The garage is fine.

There's gotta be
something, Mom.

If he has a job, it helps
him with his probation.

Okay, do you even
hear what you're saying?

I mean, this boy is an
ex-convict. All right?

Mom, he's just a kid.

And you want him hanging around
here with your brother and sister?

It's not safe.

Oh, my God, Mom. You don't even know him.

And neither do you.

Look. I appreciate what you're trying
to do here, but the answer is no.

I'm sorry.

All right.
Slow down a little bit.

Use your mirrors. What's
over your right-hand shoulder?

Did you look?
I looked.

Good job.

Thank you.

What's this about you
and this Swedish kid?

Wow, that was
really subtle, Dad.

Did Mom even
give you cue cards?

No, this doesn't have
anything to do with your mom.

She obviously has
an opinion, however.

But this is me asking you.
I want to hear it from you.

Mom just doesn't like him because he's older.

How much older?

Dad, it doesn't even
matter. How much older is he?

It matters to me. Mom has me
on lockdown at our house, Dad.

Don't talk. Your mother
loves you very much.

She's just trying
to take care of you.

You have bigger things to
worry about, like your job.

Don't bring my job up. I'll
take care of that, all right?

That's none of your
business, my job.

Oh, your job's
none of my business?

You worry about the other things.
No. Don't give me that look.

Watch the road.

What's this about...

What's this about I hear you and
this kid carrying on in the driveway?

Oh, we're "carrying on"?

Yes, carrying on.

We weren't carrying on.
Don't look at me like that.

I don't like the tone
when you do...

Watch out for the road.

Keep your eye on the road. Look out up here.

I'm keeping my... You got this turn up here.

Okay. You need to get in the other lane.

This lane goes on
to the highway.

You gotta get
over to the right.

Get in the other lane.
Get in the other lane.

Watch out! Watch out!

Look out for that!

Damn it.
You almost hit this guy!

Stop yelling at me!

I'm not. I can't drive
when you're yelling at me!

Look, just stay right
where you are, all right?

Just stay right
where you are.

This is great. We can do
the operation on Thursday.

Those Texas docs nailed your
fusion, so we can skip decompression

and go right for
the injections.

The stem cells?
That's right.

Technically, they're
embryonic stem cells,

but the sharks don't seem
to make the distinction.

Hang on. Wait.
Did you just...

You just said you're gonna give
him a shot from a shark, Doc?

Yeah, pretty
cool stuff.

Sharks have one of the strongest
immune systems in nature.

It decreases the risk of
rejection and runaway cell growth.

Wouldn't want your friend
here going all Jaws on us.

And again, uh, why can't
they do this in the States?

Because the FDA
are a bunch of crybabies.

Okay.

I don't even want to go out with him, man.

Everyone's just gonna
think that I jock Smash

as much as Smash jocks Smash,
and I don't.

Like, we all know that I
don't, so what's the point?

He used to be cool
and now...

Would you just go out with Smash's girls?

I mean, you need some kind of
a rebound to get over Julie

'cause obviously
it's affecting you.

I'm telling y'all.
It's a gold mine.

What do you think
people would pay?

What wouldn't
they pay, real question?

Right.

Hey, space cadet. Working
on a business venture here.

If that's what
you want to call it.

Look, I just don't see anybody paying
y'all to walk around their lawns naked.

Half-naked or whatever
you want to call it.

We're not walking around their
lawns and you're being a snot.

None of it.
None of it.

You've come up with all of this on your own?

Smash talking in
the locker room.

What's the deal? Eh? One loss,
and y'all quit practicing?

Oh, man,
come on...

We're just kidding, man. I mean, we lost...

What's up, baby?... the
same game last year, too,

and, you know, look,
that worked out okay, so...

You know, we don't
want to get too cocky.

All right, y'all be good. All right.

Y'all enjoy your...
See you.

Sorry, dude. It's just bringing me down.

What is the matter with you, man? You okay?

What's wrong, man? You look
like you're about to throw up.

I'm just... Something's wrong
with my... My burger.

It don't taste...
I'm fine, though.

No, ma'am.
No, that is incorrect.

On the issue of cause for termination...

Cause? Wait.
What cause?

Nobody ever
gave a reason.

Ma'am. Excuse me.

We had a student
get injured.

Had to go to the hospital from a practice
session that went over time limits.

Oh, come on. That was against the rules.

Come on.
He got a little overheated.

They gave him some fluids
and he was fine.

We're talking about
Tim Riggins.

Everybody knows
Tim Riggins.

He was
probably hungover.

It's an excuse which you
all have just dreamed up

in order to justify
the lynching of my client.

Coach MacGregor was fired because
we simply do not like the way

he has abandoned our
tradition here in Dillon.

He has come in, he has changed
practices, closed them down.

He is not attending
the Booster Club meetings.

He has changed
the pep rally.

And he's managed to destroy
our record-setting offense

in a very short
period of time,

which has angered many parents and many fans.

Not to mention
the players.

I believe I saw our quarterback
and our star running back

in a fistfight at the end
of the game the other night

in the middle of the
dadgum football field!

It was in a game
you won, Buddy.

That's not
the point, Barbara.

That's not the point.

You, being from Laribee, wouldn't
understand that here in Dillon,

we win seasons.

We don't win games.
State championships.

Unfortunately, Coach MacGregor
was not getting the job done.

We fired him.
End of story.

And you're speaking
for everybody here?

You bet your ass I am.

Look. Uh... Well, it's undermining me,

is what it is.
It's not undermining you.

How am I
undermining you?

Well, you were coming in here... I'm just...

You don't know how
it's been, sweetheart.

She has been horrible.

She has treated me horribly.

I know I haven't been here. I
know I don't know what's going on.

But please,
let's start new.

Let's just talk to her.

Come on.

Julie?

Jules? Please come
in here, please.

Yep? Hey, good morning, kiddo.

Good morning,
sunshine.

Good morning.

Your mother has something
that she wants to tell you.

Your father and I
have been talking

and I have... We have together
very, very, very tentatively decided

that you are not
going to be grounded.

What's the catch?

The catch is no catch other than you need
to behave like I know you know how to.

There's four of us in this family
and you need to respect that.

Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you.

Oh! Oh, by the way, congratulations,
Dad. It's all over the paper.

What is?

What's in
the paper?

Bring it in here. Bring the paper in here.

All right, all right,
all right.

Ow, Jesus.

TAMl: See.
Right on that line.

Right there. No, no, no. First of all,

you have to... Remember, you have to
go forward to the car and back into it.

Watch it. There's a car right there.

You just... You would
have hit that car.

Honey, you need to pull outside
the car and then back up.

I'm backing up.

All right. Now pull forward to the side
of the car and then back to the curb.

Side of the car.
Okay. Look at me go.

Woo, back to the curb.

Honey, you're not
even listening to me.

I am listening.
You're telling me...

Just turn the car off.

Just turn the car off.
Let's just take a break.

Let's just sit for
a minute, all right?

Listen. I need to talk
to you about something.

When I was younger,
there was a guy.

His name was Doug Odom and
he was a lot older than me...

Mom, don't do this.

Just listen, all right?
Please? Thank you.

And I was
obsessed with him.

We went to this party
once on Fourth of July,

and it was him and all
his fancy friends and...

Anyway,

I slept with him that night and that was
the first time I'd ever slept with anybody.

And I woke up the next
morning and I thought

maybe we were gonna
be boyfriend and girlfriend.

And I saw him
that next day

and he treated me like
I didn't really matter.

Like what happened
didn't really matter.

You know, you're spending
all this time with this boy

who doesn't seem
to have a name.

And I know you like him

and I know you think
he likes you.

His name is Anton.
And he does like me.

Well, he
doesn't love you.

And that's
the difference.

Bye, y'all.
Bye, Dad.

See you, Dad.
That was fun.

Yeah.
See you next week.

See you, Tab.

Remember what
I said, Little Bud.

Did you have fun?
Yeah.

How are you? I'll be in in a second, okay?

Okay.
Okay.

I need to talk to you.

Okay.

Has Lyla talked to you
at all about this boy?

No. We, uh...

We're sort of in a
feeling-each-other-out mode right now.

There's not really a whole
lot of sharing going on.

Okay. Well, let me tell you where
she met him. She met him in prison.

Okay? At some counseling session
for Christ Teen Messengers.

Pam, we've had
this talk before...

She wanted me
to hire him.

Okay? And
when I said no,

she called me un-Christian
and just walked out.

Can you believe that?

Huh.

She's trying to find him a job? Yes.

I mean, can you
imagine this ex-convict

in our house with the kids
and me there all alone?

It's not right.

Tell you what, I'll handle
it. I'll take care of it.

Good.
Okay.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Santiago, you ever
had any sales experience?

Not really, sir.

Oh, well, you ever
work on cars?

You ever do any
mechanic work?

I usually take
the bus.

Take the bus?

Well, he had a job last
year, right? Doing dishes?

Yeah, I had a job last year.
Doing dishes, like she said.

Well, that's something.

I mean, I know it has
nothing to do with cars,

but at least it shows
he's responsible.

Can... Can I talk?

Yes, sir. Please do. This is an
interview. I'd love for you to talk.

Look, I know I don't
have no experience, sir,

and I'm guessing she probably
told you I've been in juvie.

So I don't mean no disrespect to you
or nothing like that or to this place,

but I have to get
a job, sir.

If I don't get a job, they're
gonna send me back to State

and I don't wanna
go back to State.

So I'll do anything that you ask me to
do and I'll try not to mess it up too bad.

I promise.
I promise.

I appreciate that.

And if Lyla
vouches for you...

I do.

...I'll go with you.

I'll do it.

I'll give you a job, um,
in the parts department.

It's only eight-fifty an hour
and you have to work on weekends.

That sounds
great, sir.

Thank you.

Hey.

Hey.

Oh, sorry. We're supposed to hang out, right?

Uh, yeah.

Come on inside.

Come on.

Your phone
was ringing.

My what?

Your phone was ringing.

Oh, well, it was probably just Jonesy.

I told him we were going to Dry
Creek and he got a little excited.

What's Dry Creek?

What's Dry Creek?

You know, it's, uh... It's
got foosball, you know? And...

And... I don't know,
two-for-one beer night,

and I think Kennedy and Price
are gonna join us down there.

So Jonesy called Spike and
Spike called Spencer and...

Is there
something wrong?

Yeah, um...
I just, um...

I'm just feeling really sick and
I think I should go home, okay?

Yeah. Um, but, you know what?
Have fun and, um, I'II...

Hey, hey, you
need a ride home?

It's okay. I got it.

Hey, babe.

Hey, how was
your night?

Jules?

Jules?

What happened?

You all right?

Come here.
Come here.

Come here.

So this is yours.

All right. So now you
wanna drink a week later...

Look...... after I've been boozing all week.

Come on. They got a picture
of John Wayne on the wall.

Let's... Let's toast to the Duke. Here we go.

Here's to J. Wayne.

Here's to J. Wayne.

Cheers,
my friend.

Ah. Let's go.
Round two.

All right.
Round eight soon enough.

Round two,
right now.

To walking.

To running.

Is this in English?

What do you got, Six?

Mexico!

Riggins!

Clear eyes, Timmy!

Tomorrow's a big
day for me, folks.

It's a big day.
You know why?

I'm gonna walk-a

I'm gonna walk-a

I'm gonna get
out of my chair

And I'm a run-a,
and I'm a run-a

And I'm a get
right out of there

Because
Dillon sucks, folks.

Dillon is an awful place to
be and I want to walk away.

And tomorrow,
I'm gonna do it.

Listen to me.
No, I'm serious!

No, I'm serious.
I'm serious.

Tomorrow,
I'm getting a...

I'm getting shot up

I'm getting shot up
right in my spine...

And it's gonna make me
walk again, folks!

You don't even know what I'm
saying, but you believe me.

I believe it, too.

Timmy, you believe it,
don't you?

Mexico!

Yeah!

Yeah. I'm gonna walk, Timmy!
Timmy, I'm gonna walk again!

It'll be great.

Hey. Yoo-hoo.

Hey.

What's up?

I just got a call
from the Dillon police.

What did they want?
Well, why don't you tell me?

I really don't know.

But we have to go down there
right now, so get dressed. Now.

We pulled a body from the river
a few days ago. Male, Caucasian.

I need to ask you a couple of
questions about it if you're ready.

We found this
in the wallet.

Do you recognize
this person?

Yes.

Yes.

How do you know him?

He, um...

He attacked me.

He tried to...
He tried to rape me.

What? Honey, what?

I'm sorry, I...

Why didn't you
tell me? What?

Tyra, stay...
Stay with me, now.

Is this the man who
sexually assaulted you

in the parking lot of the
Alamo Freeze last November?

Yeah.
All right then.

I really want to thank you
ladies for coming out like this.

Wait. Is that it?

Yes, ma'am. You did a real
good job on your description.

We matched it with the
sketch this morning. Look.

Here's your sketch.

This boy was wanted for
rape in two other states.

Oh, my God.
Honey. Honey.

I'm sorry, Mama.

You can rest
easy now.

We're gonna close
this case.

There'll be someone to show you out, ladies.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I know it's some kind of
experiment where

they're injecting him
with shark blood

and it's supposed
to make him walk again.

Tim, are you drunk?

No, Lyla.
I'm not drunk.

Maybe I'm not explaining
this very well, but...

I don't know. All this medical
stuff is just over my head.

You know, Jason's
parents are worried sick.

Yeah, well, I am, too. He might
actually go through with this.

So what am I
supposed to do?

Come down here. Help me.
Help me talk him out of it.

Come to Mexico? Are you out of your mind?

Hello?

I swear Jay's gonna die if he
goes through with this, Lyla.

I haven't asked for
anything from you

and I'm asking you to come
down here and help me help J.

He's not listening to me.

Help me.

Please.

Please.

Let me tell you one of my
favorite things about myself.

Oh. But Gracie will start. Gracie.

Start telling her. You know
exactly what I'm talking about.

'Cause you tell her
every five minutes.

You're filling
her head full of it.

Yeah?

Hey, Coach.

Coach,
how you doing?

I was filling up the truck,
I was rolling out of town,

and I just thought I'd come
by and, uh, congratulate you

because it worked out just
the way you wanted.

How's that?

How's that?

You know, Eric, I've
been a coach a long time.

I've been fired before and
I'll probably be fired again.

But this is the first time I've
been screwed by another coach.

Well, now just
wait a second here.

I know you were involved in this thing, okay?

I don't appreciate that
accusation right there.

It's the truth and you know
it. I don't appreciate that.

You're not gonna lie to me
here at your doorstep, are you?

I don't think you are.

I know you were involved in this
thing and maybe you had your reasons,

maybe you didn't.

But I want you to know
that I have a family, too,

and you just
remember that.

I'll be seeing
you again.

Listen up.

We got Westerby
in two days.

I know y'all don't want another
loss pinned on your asses.

Quarterbacks and receivers
are gonna be with me today.

Linemen on the boards
with Mac.

Any questions?

No, sir.

What's that?
No, sir.

I didn't hear you.
No, sir!

All right. Let's go. Let's have
some fun today. Let's get out there!

Teens spend a lot of time
learning how to drive.

But it is just as important
to learn how distractions like

using your cell phone or piling
all your friends in your car

can have serious
consequences.

Make sure your trip
is no accident.
