Friday Night Lights (2006–2011): Season 3, Episode 11 - A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall - full transcript

I'm Madison.
Nice to meet you. And you.

You're on break with her.
Yes?

Okay.

That little bastard.

The savings that we were
keeping for your college

is the money I used
for the investment.

I lost all the money and...
Where are you going?

Don't! Don't touch me.
Please, don't leave me.

I need to ask you a favor.
I'm taking the SATs on Saturday.

I was kind of hoping, if you weren't doing
anything, if maybe you could, you know...

Help you out?
Yeah.



Landry's kind of cute up there.

Yeah, I know.

It's love or time...

Hey, what about a sangria set?

Oh, that's great.
Monkey, do you like that?

Oh, yeah, if you like it, I like it.
I love it.

Sangria, got it.

You know what? I'm gonna
head over to Automotive.

I think we can register
for, like, a leaf blower.

How cool would that be?
That's a great idea.

Why don't you take this
with you?

You will not take
that with you.

I'll be back in a sec.

What, honey?



What's the matter? I feel like I'm the only
one excited about your sister's wedding.

Well, I'm just thinking about my SATs, okay?
I just have this feeling I did horrible.

Oh, stop.
I'm sure you did fine, baby.

You've been working so hard.

I know, that's the point.
It's just important, that's all.

Hello, ladies. Are we here to register
for my wedding? Can we do that?

Bridal shower. Plans.

Um, yes, called all your girlfriends
and called Seven Se?oritas.

No, I don't wanna go to Seven...
We always go to Seven Se?oritas.

The shower needs to
be different. Special.

Honey, it will be special.

All your girlfriends are gonna buy you
new thongs to replace the old ones.

Let's do a tea.

A tea?
Yeah.

As in a tea party?
What?

That seems like
it's a little bit square.

Mama, it's classy.

Class, yes, something you know a lot about.
Are you serious right now?

My bridal shower's
gonna be a tea.

Make that happen.

Hey, ladies, look at this,
a leaf blower.

Oh, my God!

Red, 58!

Red, 58!
Set, hut!

Watch the move,
watch the move!

Good job, J. D!
There you go.

Good, run it again.

Get down deep, get down deep!
Attaboy, J.D.

There you go,
there you go, good work.

Let's go, pick it up, let's go!

All right, come on.

All right, let's get
something to drink.

Let's go, break.

Come on, let's go!
Guys, let's get some Gatorade. You want one?

Hey.

Hey.

You look pretty hot out there.

Yeah, you know,
it's kind of warm out there.

What the hell's that kid doing.

Looks like he got himself
a little plaything, Coach.

Hey, Wade.

Why don't you go
get Romeo over there,

tell him to get his head
back in the game, huh?

Let's go, gentlemen,
let's go! Time's up!

Go!

I'll text you.
Okay, yeah.

J.D. let's go.
J.D. man, let's go.

Bye.
Bye.

Excuse us, little lady,
we have a practice. Let's go.

What's your problem, man?
You act like this is not State.

Sorry. Get in there, get your
head in the game, let's go!

J.D.

On your own time.
On your own time, this is my time.

Sorry, Coach.

Let's go, gentlemen!

You have no chance,
you have no chance.

I am a chick, and I am winning.

There's no rules.
That's cheating!

Score!

Three out of three,
she's schooling your ass!

You can't push,
you're in the middle.

Hey, you can, you can.

It's the first time
she's ever played.

You know what? I used to think she was
prissy, turns out you're kind of fun.

You're a cheater, Garrity.
You know what? I want a rematch, though.

You can have a rematch. Can you bring me
another one while you're over there, please?

I'm clocking out.
Hitting the sheets.

Wanna come?

No, I have a rematch.

Don't you
wanna watch?

I'm good.

Night, Grandpa.

Push play, push play.
Come on, Garrity.

I'm pushing play.
You ready?

That's all that matters,
here we go.

Wait, wait, Billy!

You can't win.

Hey, good morning.

Hey, honey.
What time is that meeting tonight?

It's at 6:00. Man, I cannot make heads or
tails out of all this redistricting business.

You know, they try to do that every year,
redistricting, try to open up East Dillon High.

Never happens and it's never gonna happen.
Where's the cream?

I know, but you know what?
People are fed up this year, people want change.

And I'll tell you one thing, right
now everything I'm reading tells me

we will not get any funding from the state
unless we do it through redistricting.

You know what?
People don't like confusion.

And splitting a town in half,
that causes confusion.

It's not gonna happen.
Where's the cream?

Honey, we're out. You want some of mine?
It's real good.

It's still hot.

All right, beer wolf.

I let you sleep in as long
as I could before we gotta go.

For your favorite
day of academics.

I think you got, what?
History?

Time to get up, let's go.

I'm not going.

You don't wanna go?

Fine, I'll stay here, but you're
not gonna get much sleep.

I don't want any company,
I just want to be in bed.

Last chance.
Okay, train's leaving.

Seriously, train's leaving.

I'm off.

See you later.

I have seven kinds of tea, all right?
It's gonna be magical, I promise you.

Yes.

You need to stop worrying.

I have everything.
It's gonna be fine, all right?

No, I know, I know.
No, don't...

I gotta go.
All right, thank you, bye-bye.

Excuse me, ma'am, but management just
told me to escort you off the premises.

I wish somebody would.

You okay?

Yeah, totally, just planning
the bridal shower from hell.

You know.
Mindy wants a tea party.

Well, that's good.
That's exciting. Yeah.

How are you doing?

I'm doing good.

I just found out the club owner asked
Crucifictorious back next week, so...

That's great.
And hopefully if that goes well,

we'll kind of do
like a regular thing,

so, yeah, thank you
again for that, 'cause...

We couldn't have done it
without you.

You guys deserve it.
Good, I'm glad.

Thanks.

Well, I, uh...

I have to get going, 'cause I have to
figure out how to make scones. So...

My mom's got a scone recipe,
if you wanna use it.

I'm sure she wouldn't mind.

Was that...

Was that, like,
an offer to help?

Um, I guess, yeah.

I guess that was
an offer to help.

Thank you.
That would be awesome.

Sure.

I completely understand. You bet.
I will definitely talk to him.

Mmm-hmm, no problem.
Well, thank you for calling.

Who was that?
That was Wade Aikmen.

J.D. has apparently been half-assing
it at practice last couple days.

You know, I just don't believe that.
You know how hard he works.

Well, not this week, baby.
Not this week, not today.

Today, he is, quote,
"Not himself," unquote,

because he is completely
distracted

by a little 15-year-old minx
named Madison.

That girl is a plague!
Oh, please!

I cannot believe
that boy lied to me!

He said that he would
cool things off,

but, no,
he didn't cool nothing off.

And you know what else?
I cannot believe you don't think it's a big deal

he goes out and sneaks off
in the middle of the night.

I do think it's a big deal.
You're not acting like it!

You know what? I don't think
freaking out is helping anything.

I'm not freaking out.
You are freaking out.

I'm parenting.
Back off.

Hi, honey.

Gonna say hi to your mom?
Hey.

How you doing?

I'm good.
You all right?

Yeah.

How was practice?

That was good, too.

It was good, huh?
Yeah.

Practice was practice, you know.
I got it under control. It's all good.

What's for dinner?
Turkey burgers.

Turkey burgers, really?
Yeah, your favorite.

All right, well, cool, I'm gonna
go do some homework, all right?

Okay.

He's got it under control.
"It's all good.' '

You good?
Get your seat belt on.

Well, I know how to wear a seat
belt, thank you very much.

Hey, do you need anything?
We're going to the market.

No, I'm good.

Grandma, be nice, okay?
And, listen,

I know what we need at the market.
You didn't need to bother him with anything.

I'm not bothering him. I just wanted
to see if he wanted anything special.

And I didn't want to go now.

I'm missing Oprah.
They're doing a life makeover.

You ought to watch it.
Maybe you could learn something.

Well, I promise I'll get you
back in time for the makeovers.

My gosh, where's my purse?

Where is my purse?

I left my purse on the couch!
Oh, God, Lorraine!

Oh, my God.

Lorraine? Matt!
Lorraine, are you okay?

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

Grandma, you okay?

Oh, honey...

Go call an ambulance
or something. Grandma!

Are you all right?
Let's try and turn you over, okay?

No, no, no. Okay, it's all right.
You're okay. Oh, honey.

I'm sorry. No, don't be sorry.
You didn't do anything.

I don't wanna be in trouble.
You're not in trouble, Grandma.

Just... No, it's okay.

Just try and breathe...
Okay, honey.

And relax, all right?
We're gonna be fine, we're gonna be fine.

I'm so sorry, honey.

You want a soda or anything?
No.

Hi.

Hey, Matt. It's okay.
She's all right.

A few contusions,
minor lacerations,

but no stitches, that's the good part.
Oh, thank God.

That's not the real
problem here, Matt.

Your grandmother's mental
health is deteriorating.

Now, look,
we've talked about this.

I want you to seriously consider
other living arrangements.

Other living arrangements,
like what?

Lorraine should be in a place
where there are professionals

who can be responsible for her.

She needs that level of care.

Well, let me get this straight.

You said we should be looking for some
sort of assisted living for Lorraine?

No, we're not
looking for anything.

Okay, I know, but...

The doctor just said...

Look, just because
she fell out of a car

that you were driving doesn't mean
that she needs 24-hour assistance.

It means that you need to pay better attention
to her when you're taking care of her.

Okay, you're right, I will.
I will, Matt, but you know what?

What the doctor said made me think that
even if I'm paying great attention

and you're there,
we still can't...

Look, if you wanna bail
again, go ahead and bail.

Go back to Oklahoma,
we don't need you.

But, right now,
my grandmother has a home

and I'm taking her to it, okay?
Come on, Matt.

No. Where is she?
Wait, Matt.

Is she back here?
No, Matt, wait. I'll take you.

Just calm down a little bit, okay?
All right.

Hey, Tim!
Come here.

We need to have
a little man-to-man.

I'm pretty sure we have a
good shot against West Cambria.

Tim, you know I'm not
here to talk about football.

I'm here to
talk about my daughter.

How's she doing?

She's hanging in there.

Tim, I need to get Lyla back.

Son, I don't know what to do.
I mean, I cannot go on

thinking that she hates me.
And I cannot stand the fact that I've hurt her.

And I miss her very, very much.

Well, I know
she misses you, too.

You know that?
Did she say that?

Yes.

I don't know what to do next.

You gotta give her more time,

Mr. Garrity,
that's what I think.

That's good, Tim Riggins.

That sounds like good advice.
That's what I'll do.

You're a good man.

Am I supposed to walk
from here, Mr. Garrity...

Oh, no, no, I'll take you back.
Drive me home?

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah.
I'll take you back.

The current proposal uses Collier
Avenue as the dividing line

between the two schools.

Dillon High School in the blue,

East Dillon High School
in yellow.

Each high school will have
roughly 1,000 students,

with class sizes capped at 21,

and a 25% increase
in per-student funding.

Thank you, Elaine. All right, I'd like to open
up the floor to any questions at this time.

This whole thing sounds like
bureaucratic smoke and mirrors.

Now, where's the pot of gold
that's gonna fund this pipe dream?

The state's funding this,
Larry.

If the majority approves,
and I hope they do,

you're gonna be seeing this type
of thing happening all over Texas.

They closed East Dillon for a reason.
The place was a cesspool.

I assure you, East Dillon
will be brought up to code

before a single student
walks through the door.

What's this mean for the team?

Bailey, hell if I know.

Are we gonna be
the Panthers anymore?

Oh, yes, Barbara,
the PTA President.

Thank you,
Superintendent Dunley.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're faced
with some really important decisions.

Principal Taylor, we really respect
you and value your opinion.

What do you think?

Is this a good idea?

Well...

I mean, listen,
y'all, you know...

Redistricting is...
Is a complicated issue, and...

Let's face it, we've got a school
that's in dire circumstances right now.

I mean,
we've got real, real problems,

and I think
everybody's aware of that.

The way I read these
documents, it sounds to me

that the only way we're gonna
get any funding from the state

is if we consider
this redistricting.

There you go.
Thank you, Principal Taylor.

You realize half my team
lives east of Collier Avenue?

Mmm-hmm.

This thing goes through,

they're gonna end up playing
for the East Dillon Giraffes

or whatever the hell
they're gonna call themselves.

I know.

Dad?

Dad?

Hi.

I'm happy to see you here.

Can we talk?

Sure.

You can start by congratulating me.
I got into Vanderbilt.

Congratulations, baby.

Not that I'll be able to go.

Baby.
Don't.

Lyla, please.

Hi.
Hey.

Hey, did you know that your dad
called my parents last night?

What?
Yeah.

He called them and said that I
was a negative influence on you.

Do you think
I'm a negative influence?

No, you're amazing.

Good.

What did your parents do?

My mom started crying,

and then my dad got on the phone
and started yelling at your dad,

if he ever said anything like that
about me again, then he'd have to sue.

It was kind of funny.
Damn it!

Well, don't worry.
I'm not in trouble or anything.

You're not mad at me?

No, I mean...

I'm amazing, right?

No, yeah, you're amazing.

Good.
Really amazing.

Good.

Tyra, do you
want to remind me again

why Mindy thinks that it's a good idea
to have a party outside in December?

Yeah, remind me again why my sister thinks
it's a good idea to marry Billy Riggins?

That is a good point.

That's a really good point.

Speak of the devil.
It's Lady Di herself.

Hey, what's up?

Well, no, I haven't heard
back from everybody yet.

Well, we're here, but I don't
know if I can change it.

No, what are you trying to say?

Okay, let me see.
This is ridiculous.

No, I...
Let me see. I got it.

Excuse me, Mindy.

Hey, this is Landry.

Landry Clarke.

Yes, you do. You know exactly who I am.
That's not funny. Stop laughing.

Okay, Mindy, listen. Me and Tyra
have this whole thing under control.

We've got the chairs,
we've got the tables.

There's no need for you
to keep calling.

Okay? We've got it.
All right? Bye-bye.

Nice.

You got anybody east of Boyd's Lane?
Anybody east of, what's this, Driscoll?

He's got a brother.

They can have these
middle areas in here.

We need to find out who's on this
other side of Michigan Avenue.

And this here is...
How 'bout this cross street here?

We got anybody going up McAlister?
They move, we just take more.

Hey, Lester, listen,
you're not thinking ahead.

The Snyder boys are gonna be
freshmen in two years.

They're already as big as houses,
they got to be Panthers.

Yeah, I got it.
That's a good idea.

Hey, Joe, don't we still
wanna keep Charles White?

All right, so we're gonna have
to bring this line over here.

Somehow we can compromise...
Hey, what's going on?

Hey, you made it.
What's going on?

Well, this redistricting vote came up
before we could do anything about it,

but don't worry, there's nothing we can't fix.
We're working on it right now.

I thought the line was
Collier Avenue.

Well, the line is Collier
Avenue, but don't worry,

the boosters and Paul Dunley, the
superintendent, everybody's on the same page,

and the bottom line is, we're
all about the Dillon Panthers.

We're gonna make sure that the
Dillon Panthers stay intact.

Here's that beer you ordered, Buddy.
Okay, thank you.

Darla, if I were you,
I'd run his credit card,

'cause, you know, I hear
his last tab was a doozy.

Hey, hey, hey. That's real funny, Joe.
I will say this,

that's the most expensive
lap dance I've ever had.

All right.
How about Hall? Jimmy Hall?

He was another defensive end.

I think that he moved out of that area, too.
Through here.

Matthew?
Yes.

Where are my slippers, honey?

What?

Where are my slippers, honey?

They're right there
on your feet, Grandma.

I need my slippers, Matthew.

I need my slippers, honey.
I need them now.

Grandma, they're on your feet.

Where are my slippers?
Oh, hey.

Huh?
Whoa.

Where are they?
Grandma, they're right there.

Matthew!

All right, well, I...
Grandma, just sit down, okay?

Do you need another
pair of slippers, or...

I need my slippers!
Help me!

Here. Look, here.
Grandma, here, here.

Is that good?

That what you need?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Don't mean to step
on your toes or anything,

but you might wanna try cutting
those a little bit thinner,

just 'cause cucumber sandwiches
are kind of delicate.

Really?

Did I just lose a lot
of man points for that?

I'm trying not to keep count,
but, yeah. Yeah, you did.

Did I tell you
that I'm in a band, though?

See, there's like 40,000 man points, see.
So you're in the black.

Did I tell you I got my
SAT scores back?

No. Are you gonna
let me see them?

Well, you went up.

Yeah.

You went up like 100 points.
That's awesome!

Yeah.
I needed to go up like 200

to make up for freshman
and sophomore year...

It's fine.
Well, this is still really good.

Can I say something?

Most girls that
look like you do,

things are easy,
they can just coast by

on their good looks for the rest of
their lives and not really have to...

Not really have to worry.
I mean, I know it sounds stupid,

but I'm proud of how hard you've
been working for this. It...

I mean, it says something.

I think good things are gonna
happen, you just gotta keep going.

Thank you.

You still think I'm
good-looking, though, right?

You're still...
You've still got...

You know, yeah.

I think you're still okay.

"Okay"? Thanks.

Hey, you see that
truck right there?

It's been on the lot 18 months
and it just won't move.

I challenge myself. I've said,

"By God, today, Buddy Garrity,
you're gonna sell this truck.' '"

And here she sits!

I don't like what's going on between
the boosters and this remapping.

Well, that's not something
you need to worry about.

We've got that taken care of.
We'll take care of it for you.

I don't want anyone taking
care of anything for me.

Let me tell you something, this
is a whole lot bigger than you.

This is about
the Dillon Panthers.

No one, not me, not Joe McCoy,
not any other booster

is gonna stand by and let the
Dillon Panthers get dismantled

because of some dang politics,
I'll tell you that right now.

So if you don't wanna know,

don't ask.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Good night.

Good night.

What are we doing here, Tim?

I know you were
gonna ask that, so...

I know this is the first church that you
started going to with your whole family,

so I just wanted to,
you know, come...

Just come sit down with me for one sec.
Please, please, please.

With the angelic host proclaim

Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hark! The herald angels sing

Did my dad tell you
to bring me here?

No. No, your dad didn't tell
me to bring you here.

Of course not.

Are you mad?

I just don't understand
what we're doing here.

Light and life to all He brings

I thought it might
just cheer you up.

Maybe I don't
wanna be cheered up.

Well, I didn't
bring you here...

Just leave me alone, please!

Garrity...
Damn it!

Garrity. Hey. Hey.

Come here! Look,
Lyla, stop. Please.

No! I don't even know what I'm doing here!
Please stop.

Why did I stay here?

Why did I let them go?

You didn't let 'em go.

What was I thinking?

Why didn't I go with them?

I have no family.

I have no family.

Yeah, you do, come here.
Come here.

It's all right.

Okay, there's no way
that these are their real names.

I better get, like, a billion
sister points for this thing.

Okay, what else
do we need to do?

Scones.
Okay.

You gotta be kidding me!

Take it inside!

Mama,
you all set over there?

Yes. Perfect. Beautiful.
Okay. All right.

Everything looks good, huh?

Oh, they're here! Come in, sweetie, come in!
Come in, come in.

Okay, Tyra, I really have to go.
I should have left, like, 20 minutes ago.

Yeah, I wonder why you didn't.

Okay, you got everything
you need? Got a camera?

All right.

Thank you, for everything.

You're welcome.

You're very sweet.

Well, I try.

Your favorite color
and everything.

How nice, thank you, yes.

And it goes with this.
Of course!

Up goes the heat.

Shut up!

Honey, I know you and
Billy are forever,

but this is gonna
help you keep things fresh.

Is it? That's good to know!
It's all I'm saying.

Okay, I need to
make a toast, guys.

Thank you so much for
coming to my bridal shower.

You guys are the best friends
any girl could ever have.

And I really need to
thank my baby sister Tyra.

'Cause she put this whole day
together, and it's really perfect.

And even though she's the baby of
the family and my younger sister,

I look up to her.

I love you, Ty-Ty!

I love you.

And maybe one day,
if you're really lucky,

you will find a man almost
as hot as Billy Riggins!

Now, listen to me.
Are you listening to me?

Joe, how can he not be listening?
He's sitting right there.

Honey, he knows exactly
what I'm talking about, okay?

Hey, what is with the attitude?

What attitude?
I didn't say anything.

Okay, listen to me. In the rain, the
name of the game is ball control, okay?

Your first read is
always your short routes,

your safe ones, okay?
Yep.

On the run-pass option, you
pull it down and you keep it,

unless it's a gimme.

You are running the football
tonight, do you understand?

I got it.
Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm positive.

Honey, we get it. When it rains, things
get a little slippery, like the football!

Yeah, hear what your mom says?
The ball gets slippery. Now, listen to me.

What I'm talking about is ball
control. Now, you do that,

you win this game, and we are
headed to State, baby.

All right, I gotta go.
Go get 'em.

See you, honey.
Run the ball.

All right.

The gateway
to the State Championship

is through a real
Texas toad strangler, folks.

It's wet, it's windy,
it's semifinal football.

Listen up!

This is it, fellas, here's what
we've been working for, right here.

It's a beautiful night
for football, gentlemen.

Let's go out there and punch 'em
right in the mouth. What do you say?

Let's go! Clear eyes,
full hearts...

Can't lose!

Early in the second quarter
and it is really coming down, folks.

Mustangs have the ball.
There's the pitch left.

He's got an opening!

Big hit! And a fumble!

There you go, baby!
There you go, baby!

Panthers have the ball!

Way to go, baby!

Let's go, let's go!

Come on now, J. D!

Blue, 80. Set! Hut!

McCoy drops back to pass.

He lets it fly!

Saracen has got it
inside the 10!

What a fantastic catch!

He got lucky.
Yay!

He got lucky on that one.

McCoy, draw to Tim Riggins,
he's got a lane!

Big Tim Riggins
powers into the end zone!

Touchdown, Panthers!

Let's go, J.D. let's go, baby!

Run it right down their throat!

McCoy rolls left.

What is he doing?

He's looking deep,
he fires a big, long ball...

Oh, and it is picked off,
intercepted by Cambria!

He's got blockers out front,
folks, he could score.

Oh, my, it's 6!

Cambria touchdown,
13-7 West Cambria.

You don't
throw in this mess!

Keep it on the ground!
Take the running lane!

Keep it on the ground!

What are you doing?

Use your head, run the ball!

J. D! Come here.

Listen to me. We're gonna stick
to the same game plan, all right?

We're down by 7.
The game hasn't even started yet.

You got it?
Yes, sir. I got it.

Protect the ball, keep your head
up, and have some fun out there.

It's a beautiful night, son.
You're doing fine, let's go, come on.

Let's go, 1-2,
you're on, you're on.

He is not doing what he's
supposed to be doing.

He's gotta do what the coach
tells him to do.

Let's go, offense, let's go!
Watch the left!

I can't believe it, folks,

but McCoy is looking deep
and he lets it fly...

And that is out in the middle
of no man's land.

Come on, come on, J. D!
Let's go, son!

Run it!

He takes the snap,
opens left...

Oh! Fumble,
and the ball is on the carpet!

Cambria has got it!

J.D. McCoy fumbles,
and West Cambria recovers.

What are you doing?

You can't throw, you can't
even pitch! Pull his ass out!

Come on, Coach, pull him out
before he ends the season!

It's been a real heart-stopper
out there, folks.

A lot of miscues
on both sides of the ball.

West Cambria lines up
for the punt.

The snap is on the ground,
Riggins comes up!

And he just takes him out!

The ball's on the ground,
Panthers pick it up.

He is gonna score, folks!

Oh, my!
Touchdown, Dillon Panthers!

And the Dillon Panthers
are down by 1.

It is 13-14, with seconds
left to go in this contest.

We're going for 2.

And it appears
Coach Taylor is going for 2!

He's going for the win,
he does not want the tie.

Wait. Go for the tie!

This is for State, folks.
And here we go!

Three, 85!

Set, hut!

McCoy drops back.

Oh, he's in trouble right away,

and he has got to scramble!

He cuts back to the right
and, oh, he...

No! He's still on his feet!

Would you run the ball?

He looks downfield.

He fires it in the end zone!

Caught by Tim Riggins
in the end zone, 2 points!

And the Panthers of Dillon,
Texas are going to State!

Come here!

Good job.

That was some game!

Look...

I'm sorry.

No, that's okay.

No, look, you were right.

I don't know how to take
care of Grandma anymore.

Okay, well,
we can figure that out.

I don't really
want you to leave.

I was never going anywhere.

Thanks.

Come on, let me give you a ride home.

Good job
out there, Coach.

Those guys are
playing really good.

Hey, thanks very much.
Thanks, guys. Great game.

Thanks.
Hi.

Come on, this way.
Hey, y'all.

Take care, guys.
Okay.

Well, yeah, I know,
it was cold.

I know, it was crazy.

No, it was good out there,
it was a lot of fun.

It's like playing on a
slippery slide or something.

What? You'd better stop.
You're gonna get it, all right?

Hang up the phone.
Yeah. What?

I said hang up the phone.

Why?
Hang up the phone!

Joe, relax!

Hey, can I call you back later?

Yeah.

Hey, listen.
I'm hearing that...

This whole redistricting thing?

They're completely
changing the map.

You know how it was
that straight line?

Now they're kind of zigzagging
all over the place.

Did you hear
anything about that?

Uh-uh.

It's the craziest thing.

They're just talking about...

It's sounding like a
jigsaw puzzle or something,

and I think
it's all about football.

Can they even do that?

I don't know.

Well, I don't know, either.
Guess we'll find out.

Ain't it weird to think that East
Dillon would be our main rival

if this all happens?

Big Texas storm!

You did a great job, honey,
I'm proud of you.

Thanks.
You're gonna have fun, right?

J.D. hold up a sec,
I wanna talk to you, Son.

Sweetie, just give us
a second here.

Why?

Why? That was a pathetic display
you put on this evening.

Pathetic display?
I got us to State, didn't I?

Boy, you got lucky, okay?
We talked about strategy,

we talked about running the football tonight.
And what are you doing?

Pass, interception, pass!

Joe. Joe! Let's go. Calm down.
Honey, stop it. Stop it.

Like you never played
in a game in your life!

Why don't you go call Madison's parents?
Talk to them about it?

Boy, I will call them every day
of the week until that tramp

stops coming around our house.
You understand me, boy?

You know what?

I don't care what you do, Dad.
All right? Screw you!

Wait. You don't talk
to me like that!

Hey, honey? Look.

Is that...

Oh, Lord.

Stay here.
No! No, I'm coming with you.

You don't
talk to me like that! Damn it.

Stop it, Joe!
Boy, you don't talk to me that way!

Stop it!

Stop!
You will respect me!

You will not talk to me
that way, ever!

Ever!

Y'all okay?
You all right?

Did he hurt you?
Are you okay?

Come here, let's go inside.
Come on, let's go inside.

You know what that was?
That was a game for the ages.

What a game!

Why don't you go out?

You guys are going to State.
There's probably

tons of parties tonight.

'Cause the real parties
are when we win State.

That's when
the real parties are.

And then there's
one little thing, too.

I think I'm okay

hanging with my gal.

Especially after a night
like tonight.

You're not having
much fun here, are you?

Yeah.

Why?

Well, maybe I'm just
stating the obvious,

but it just seems you been
pretty down around here.

I mean, what...

What did I expect?
To just move in here, and you're gonna

solve all my problems?

Okay, you know what? I'm not here to solve
all your problems, Garrity. I'm not.

I'm here to support you no matter what
choice you make. That's why I'm here.

I'm your boyfriend, I think
I'm a pretty darn good one.

You know what? Your dad
threw you a good curve ball.

But this self-pity
that I've been seeing,

it's gotta stop.

You're better than that. Okay?

And you can still get into any college you want.
Any one you want, still.

How am I gonna afford it?
If you can't afford it,

there's scholarships to be had.

I mean, your grades
speak for themselves.

And you know what?
If it doesn't,

there's San Antonio State,
and I would love to have you.

Did I just say I loved you?

Did I? No?

'Cause I'm kind of madly
in love with you,

and I'll be here
no matter what.

I love you, too.

He pushed.

He pushed him so hard.

I should have stopped it.

Honey, honey, honey...

Listen, don't you go
blaming yourself, all right?

It's not your fault.
Don't even go down that road.

He hit him.
I know.

He hit my baby.

What am I gonna do?

You know what?
You're not gonna do anything right now.

You're just gonna
drink your tea.

Just leave it be
for right now, okay?

I'm sorry, babe.

Nothing I do
is ever good enough for him.

I mean, it's always this or always that.
I can't take it anymore!

He treats me like
I'm some dumb kid.

I understand.

I don't wanna
see his face again.

I don't wanna go back
to that house, I hate it.

I don't know
what I'm supposed to do.

Listen, what's gonna happen
tonight, I think, is

you and your mom are gonna
stay here. All right?

You and your mom are gonna
have to talk this thing out,

figure out
what the next step is...

The important thing to know is that
you're not alone in this, all right?

I mean, is it, like,
my fault or something?

Listen, what he did was wrong.
Did I do something wrong?

There's no two ways about it,
that's just wrong.

Whether it's your father
or not.

Hey,

this will work out
in the long run.

I need a second opinion. No.
Does this make me look fat? I need to know.

You are sexy!

Thank you. See, she says I'm sexy,
so I don't know what to tell you.

I'm taking these,

those are hot, and this.
Let's go.

Come on, baby.
Bye, you two.

We'll see you kids later.
Bye.

Thank you!
I love you two.

Bye, sweetheart.

I love you!

I love y'all, take care.
Bye.

Oh, my God, this place...

Somebody just put their gum
right on the table.

Honey, what's the matter?

I don't know what's
wrong with me anymore.

Nothing's wrong with you.
What are you talking about?

Why can't I want that?

They look so happy.

I mean, I spend all this time

trying to go to college, and it's
seeming more and more impossible.

Honey, listen to me, let me
tell you something, all right?

Okay. I love my Mindy.

You know,
she was my first baby.

And she's so funny and darling,

you know, but...

She has never surprised me,

not one day in her life,
bless her heart.

But you...

You surprise me, honey.

Every day since the minute
I knew you were coming,

till right now.

You are a wonder.

I have no idea
what's gonna happen with you,

not a clue, I've no idea what
college you're gonna go to,

or anything.

But I know one thing,
with all my heart,

that you

are gonna have everything
that you are dreaming of.

You're gonna get everything
you're reaching for, honey.

You are.

And I want you to keep
reaching, you keep going.

One of these days, you're gonna
surprise yourself, you'll see.

I won't be surprised,
but you will be.

I know it.

I love you.
I love you, sweetie, so much.

Thank you, Mama.
