Deraj:
?? We on the way now ??

?? We on the way now ??

?? We on the way now,
we on the way up ??

?? We on the way now,
coming in fast... ??

[Scoffs]
You get lost

on the way to
the basketball gym, Brent?

No, Coach,
I'm in the right place.

All anyone wants to read about
these days is Beverly football.

How things have changed.

Y'all locked up top seed
in the playoffs

with a game to go.

Bumps you right to the top
of the totem pole.

Hope you're not looking
for some kind

of spicy quote
ahead of tonight's game.

You haven't
disappointed me yet.

There's not much
to say about a game

that doesn't affect
our playoff seeding.

How 'bout the fact that you're
only sixty-two points

away from Beverly's
regular-season points record?

Sixty-two points is a lot to
put on the Cimarron defence.

You've done it once
this season already.

[Sighs]

Look, the most important
thing about tonight's game

is that everybody leaves
the field healthy.

Stamping this team's name
in the record books would

send quite the message
to the Chargers and put

another nail in the coffin
of the Billy Baker era.

[Distant chatter]

Looks like you're quite
a bit more popular

than you were a few weeks ago.
[Cassius sighs]

Sure you don't want
to send South Crenshaw

a message
in this upcoming game?

Look, anything
we got to say

to the Chargers,
we'll say on the field

when we meet them
in the playoffs.

Excuse me.

Ah.

Hey, hi.

[Knock on door]

Hey, uh, pancakes are ready,
so why don't you come

get 'em before they get cold?
Amina: I can't this morning.

I-I think you should,
uh, spare a minute

to sit down, eat a bit.
Amina: I've got a meeting, OK?

Amina,
we need to talk.

[Chuckles]
About what?

You know what.

[Sighs]

Look, I already
told you, I'm sorry

for leaving for Baltimore
in the middle of the night,

and if my dad decides
to ground me, then-

No, he does not want
to punish you.

OK, I'm just saying
I understand.

Amina, we need to talk
about your mum.

Um, yeah, there's-there's
nothing to talk about.

I get it now-why you
and my dad did what you did.

We're good.
Coop: Amina.

I'm running late
for student council.

We'll talk later.

[Sighs]

[School bell rings]

LiTTiE: ?? Let me show you
what I'm talking bout ??

?? So phenomenal,
yeah, we on a roll ??

?? I just walk it like I
talk it, then I gotta go ??

?? So incredible,
yeah, we hella cool ??

?? So extraordinary,
baby, yeah, they gotta know ??

?? Look at, look at,
look at, look at me ??

?? Yeah, I know, they gotta
see it to believe ??

?? Look at, look at,
look at, look at me ??

?? Yeah, I'm everything
you want and wanna be ??

?? Uh-huh, uh-huh ??

?? This is what they
talking bout, wow ??

?? Yo, let me show you
what I'm talking bout ??

I could get used to this.

-Heh!
-Yo, hold on, hold on, hold on.

What? You got cookies?
Why didn't I get any?

They're from Tori. Heh!
It's an inside joke.

You know you guys
aren't a secret, right?

-What do you mean, bro?
-I mean she didn't get you

cookies because
of an inside joke.

Everyone knows there's
something's going on

between you and Tori, man.
-Heh!

Hey, yo, we're
just friends.

[Sighs]
OK, look, we're just-

we're not trying to do
the whole label thing.

Well, I'll give you and your
"friend" a little privacy.

Hey. Heh! Um,

thanks for the cookies.
Tori: How does it feel to be

the hottest team in Beverly?
KJ: Pretty great, actually.

Yeah, it's really starting
to feel like home.

Oh, so now that everyone
worships the ground that

you walk on, you're really
starting to feel yourself.

Yeah, a little bit,
you know?

No, but seriously,
big props to you

for helping me see that I'm
building a family here in L.A.

In fact, um,
I sent out an invite

to my mum's family
back in Oakland.

I wanna finish off the season
with both my families here.

Awesome.
I can't wait to meet them.

I mean if that's
what you want.

Yeah, of course.
I mean, they're gonna love you.

Or, um, they're gonna
think you're great.

Tori: Heh! OK.
[Cheerleaders giggling]

Well, I should
probably get going.

Um, meet up later?

For sure.

[Chuckles]

[Distant chatter]

[Scoffs]

Ahem.

You're not even
gonna say hi?

Hey.

Good to know I wasn't
imagining it.

Imagining what?

I've been back
three days, Khalil,

and I thought it was strange
I hadn't seen you, but I

told myself, "No, Khalil just
wrote me the sweetest letter

"about how he wants to be
a better friend to me.

Why would he be avoiding me?"-
-Meen, it's not like that-

OK, then explain to me how you
think being a better friend

means being a more distant one.
Khalil: 'Cause right now,

those are
the same thing.

Look, I got stuff to handle-
Amina: What stuff?

Stuff I don't want you
getting caught up in.

-Why not?
-'Cause it's dangerous, Amina!

So this is how
it's got to be

till I get it
handled, a'ight?

All right.

And when's that
gonna be?

[Whispers] Yeah,
that's what I thought.

Got it.
[Sighs]

[Sighs]

KJ: Yo, yo.

-Know what this is about?
-No idea.

Who's the suit?
Grayson: It's Campbell Beckett.

Athletic Director.
KJ: Huh. Nice of him to

finally take an interest
in the team. [Scoffs]

Cassius: All right. Sorry
for the last-minute meeting,

but I wanted you all
to hear this from me.

After some consideration,
I've decided that

in order to protect
our starters from injury

before playoffs, none of you
will be playing tonight.

KJ: What?
Cassius: Look, win or lose,

we are already top seed.
Grayson: So we're just giving up

on our last game of the season?
Cassius: No, sir.

Next man up.
Second string is more than

capable of getting us that dub.
KJ: But the playoffs,

they don't start
for another week.

I don't want us
coming out rusty.

Cassius: And we won't.
Look-heh!-

you all are my starters,
and you have been instrumental

in securing the number-one seed
for the playoffs.

But now that you have,
we don't have anything to gain

from tonight's game.
And I don't want to lose

anyone for our playoff run.

You never did this
in Oakland.

Look, this isn't up
for discussion, all right?

It's already decided,
and I expect every one of you

to be cheering for your
teammates on the sidelines

whether you want
to be there or not.

Understood?

Players: Yes, Coach.
Cassius: Understood?

Players: Yes, Coach!

KJ: It's so frustrating.
Amina: Mm-hmm.

Like, I'd invited all
my mum's family from Oakland.

I've been practicing
all week, and now,

I can't play because some guy
I've never seen before

is "worried" I'm gonna
get injured. It's ridiculous.

[Sighs]
Maybe you'll get

more time to spend
with your family?

Actually, they weren't
able to make it, so...

turns out my big family reunion
wasn't happening anyway.

OK, sounds like maybe
it wasn't meant to be.

Still doesn't
feel right.

Sure.
But sometimes you

gotta just accept the things
that you can't change.

I mean, it wasn't your dad's
choice either, right?

Yeah.

Hey, and if you still
want to bring

your families together,
what about your dad's side?

Yeah, I'm not
too sure about that.

My dad's relationship
with his dad is...is tense.

They don't really
talk a lot.

Maybe this is your chance
to change that.

One thing I realised
with my grandparents is

how little I understood their
relationship with my mum.

Invite your grandfather.

Who knows?
Could be an opportunity

to unite the Jeremy men.
KJ: Heh!

Look, I'm-I'm
sorry to make

this whole conversation
about me.

And we're supposed to be
catching up on your trip.

So how was Baltimore?
Amina: Uh, nice.

Spent time with
the grandparents.

Saw a Ravens game.
KJ: Oh.

Ate a ton
of crab cakes.

Oh. Ha ha!

Uh, you-you find out
anything about your mum?

Wasn't much to find out.

I, uh...I-I kind of
got this weird note

from Khalil when I got back.
KJ: Mmm.

-He mentioned you in it.
-[Scoffs] Me?

[Both laugh]
Amina: Yes, you.

Said, uh, said you
helped him see

that he wasn't being
a good friend to me

and that he wanted
to be a better one.

Yeah, I almost
forgot about that

after everything that
went down that night.

I'm sorry.
What went down?

Um...

Khalil was almost jumped
by some gangbangers.

Yeah, it was-
it was intense.

Me, my dad, Jordan,

Spencer, and Darnell,
we had to step in.

Apparently it had something
to do with his dad.

I'm sorry. Um, do you
mind if we finish

this catch-up later?
I-I need to run.

-Uh, yeah, of course.
-OK, um,

thanks for the smoothie
and the "welcome back" hug.

I needed that.

See ya.

[Footsteps retreat]

Hey, Elle, um, haven't
heard back from you

about opening for Sabrina...
[Front door opens, closes]

so I just wanted to, uh,
to hear your thoughts

and, uh, yeah,
gimme a call back.

Was that Sabrina?
As in...

-Yeah.
-Wow, that is big.

Mm-hmm, Elle's single
is really taking off,

and I-I really wanna
build on this wave,

but she hasn't gotten back
to me in, like, a day.

[Sighs]
All good.

She's probably just
dealing with AA stuff.

-Yeah.
-Oh, um,

I saw Amina
at the brunch shift.

When did she get back?
Coop: Couple days ago.

-Hmm. How's she doing?
-She's fine.

Too fine, actually.

-What do you mean?
-I mean she's been

totally pleasant,
but every time I bring up

her mum or try to answer
the questions Amina had

before she left,
she says it's fine

and that we don't
need to talk

and she understands why
we did what we did.

-How 'bout Preach?
-She was the same with him

before he left for that
teacher conference in Arizona.

[Sighs]
I-I don't know.

I just-I did the work
and I faced the past,

and...I was
finally ready

to have a genuine,
adult conversation

with Amina
about Mo and...

Just because you're ready
to talk doesn't mean she is.

Yeah, I'm just-
I'm scared

that she's bottling up
her feelings.

Well, I wouldn't
press, you know?

When Amina's ready
to talk, she'll talk.

And in the meantime,
shouldn't you be picking

your classes for next year?
Coop: Uh, yeah, but it's

kinda hard when you
have no idea

the type of law
you wanna practice.

-You have to choose already?
-Yeah.

Contracts.
Litigation. Torts.

They all have
their own tracks.

Wait, you're seriously
considering torts?

It can be
pretty interesting.

-Hmm.
-And don't you dare

say this has anything
to do with my professor.

-You said it, not me.
-[Sighs] Yeah.

How many times do I
have to tell you,

the only thing I'm interested
in with my professor

is her brain.
Layla: Mmm.

Well, as your professor,

Breonna is the perfect person
to discuss your future with,

and you can do it
tonight over drinks.

What? Layla, is that-
is that my phone?

-Mm-hmm.
-Wait. What'd you-

You texted her?
Oh my god!

What is wrong with you?
Layla: Hey,

I am being a good friend, OK?
[Coop sighs]

Helping you figure out
your future in law and love.

She is responding.

[Squeaks]

She said yes.

[Gasps]
It's a date.

?? It's a date ??
Mm-hmm.

You're going
on a date.

Tori: Mmm. Oh.
[KJ chuckles]

I gotta say, I didn't
expect you to be

so much fun after finding out
you're not playing tonight.

[Sighs]
I wasn't,

but I talked it out with
Amina, and now I'm fine.

Cool...

When'd you talk to her?

Like an hour ago.
What's wrong? Heh!

I just feel like you
always go to her

with these kinds of things.
KJ: What kinds of things?

Emotional things.
Advice.

It's like you save
that side of yourself

for her, and then with me,
it's all about hooking up.

No, it's not like I
sought out Amina.

She just came back in town
and we were catching up.

We're just friends.
[Tori scoffs]

What?

That's what we are, too.

Just friends.

OK, wait, hold on, 'cause now
I feel like you're mad at me.

I'm mad at myself.

I made the mistake
of wishing I was more.

But that's not on you.

I just don't like the way
this is making me feel anymore.

Oh...and for
the record?

My advice would've
been different.

Maybe it's
the competitor in me, but

there's no way I'd give up
as easily as you have.

You and your teammates
earned the right to be

on that field tonight.
Not the boosters, not the AD.

They're taking credit
for the victories,

but your team
earned them.

Own it.

[Door opens and closes]

Come on, come on,
man, come on.

Answer your phone.
Why are you being like this?

-Yo, you good?
-Yeah. We need to talk.

Bet. I was hoping
you'd say that.

So check it, I've been
doing a lot of

reflecting while you were gone.
Amina: What?

Well, you said you wanted
to talk. About Baltimore.

No, no, this is
about Khalil.

Did you know he
almost got jumped?

-Uh, yeah.
-You didn't care to tell me?

Your dad did not want
you to get involved.

I can't believe you
listened to him.

He doesn't have the right
to tell you who-

Amina, hold up.
He's just trying to

protect you, all right?
He's worked

way too hard to keep you
away from that life.

He doesn't get
to choose whose life

is worth saving
this time.

And neither do you.

[Front door opens and closes]

[Sighs]

[Sighs]

Meen, what are you
doing here?

I'm here because KJ told me
about you almost getting jumped.

I know what you're
trying to do.

-You don't understand.
-It's not complicated, Khalil.

You think avoiding me is
the best way to protect me.

And what's wrong
with that?

'Cause it's not just
about that night with KJ.

There's been other
threats since then.

Other near-misses.
And it's only a matter of time

before I run into some guys
I can't get away from.

I broke the code when I
didn't back my dad's alibi.

And I'll face
the consequences.

But I'm not about to let
you get caught up in it.

I don't need you
to protect me, Khalil.

Because I have people
who have my back.

And so do you.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Your family's here
to protect you.

But my dad?
He's the one coming for me.

I wasn't talking
about your dad.

I'm talking about
your village.

Jordan and Layla. Me.

Exactly the people I don't want
getting caught up in this.

OK, fine, but you know there
are people who can help you.

People who care about you.

All you have to do is ask.

[Sighs]

Hey. I need to talk
to you for a minute.

I got a coaches' meeting.
Can it wait?

Actually, it can't.

All right.

I'm listening.

Dad, we deserve
to play tonight.

'Cause this game matters.

OK, maybe not to playoffs,
but to this team,

to the fans.
To me.

It matters.
And to be quite honest,

we deserve to be the ones
making that decision.

Not some boosters
who just started

showing up in the stands
a few games ago.

It's not just
the boosters.

AD Beckett made
a good case.

It is smart football.

Man, forget all that, OK?

This-this is about pride.

And I'm proud
of what we've done.

I mean, we started off
this season an afterthought,

and now we're
a freight train.

We got here our way,

so let's end the season
our way with our starters

and a win on our field.

We deserve it.

[Inhales deeply, sighs]

All right.

Wait, so you'll play
the starters?

You'll start.

But I'm pulling you
at the half.

I'm giving you a chance
to put this game away early.

You get your win, I get to
rest you in the second half.

All right. Heh!
One half to win the game.

You got it.
Cassius: All right.

-That's all we need.
-All right. Heh!

[Both chuckle]

All right, I only have
a couple minutes,

but I had to do
a fit check-um,

you're not wearing
that, are you?

-[Sighs] No.
-What's wrong?

[Sighs]
I just-I finally had

a real conversation
with Amina.

About Mo?

No. Khalil.
But I get the feeling

it wasn't just him
she was talking about.

-What'd she say?
-That Preach and I don't get

to decide whose life
is worth saving.

I mean, I wasn't even-
I mean, I was just

explaining to her that
Preach is doing the best

he can to look out
for her.

[Inhales deeply]
It just was not

the conversation
I was prepared for.

Maybe that's the point.
You know, maybe it's not

about the right words.
Coop: Then what is it about?

I think Amina sees

how you and Preach keep
Khalil at arm's length.

[Sighs]

Look, I-I get
that...you and Jordan

welcomed him into your home,
and I think that's dope.

But you guys do not
have a daughter

that you have
to worry about.

You didn't grow up
like Preach and I did.

Khalil was well on his way
to getting jumped in

four months ago.
I can't fault Preach

for not wanting Amina
to get caught up in that.

You're right,
I don't have a daughter.

But Khalil does live
in my home, Coop,

and I promise you,
he deserves the second chance

he's fighting so hard for.
I mean, weren't you the one

that told me that he's not
a bad person, he's just a kid

with a rough past
who's made some mistakes?

Does that remind you
of anyone?

[Front door opens]

Amina: Hey.

Khalil: Hey, uh...

sorry, I didn't
mean to interrupt.

No, it's all good.
Is everything all right?

[Sighs]

I don't want to hide
from my dad's guys anymore.

Or worry about what's
coming for me.

I'm trying to handle it
all on my own, but...

[Sighs]

I need help.

["Shining All Night" playing]

Alex Nova:
?? I don't need the world... ??

Breach of contract?
Seriously?

Layla: No, Elle signed on
for the original venue,

not some larger venue
you're trying to push now.

Call their bluff.

[Whispers]
What?

If they changed the details
of the contract, it's void.

They have no case.
Call their bluff and hang up.

Do-are you sure?

Hundred percent.

[Sighs]

Damn.
That felt good.

I bet.
You must be Layla,

music producer,
club owner,

businesswoman
extraordinaire.

And you're Breonna.

Coop told me you were
a badass lawyer.

She didn't mention
the impressive timing.

Thank you very much
for your help.

-Anytime.
-Uh, I didn't think

you were meeting Coop
for another hour or so.

I heard this place
was a vibe,

and I have some work
to do, if that's OK.

Yeah, of course,
and, um,

drinks are on
the house tonight.

[All clamouring]

Hey, Tori, can I talk
to you for a second?

Look, I just
want you to know

you were right, OK?
Not just about talking

to my dad,
but about everything.

About who you are to me.

Whatever this is,
whatever we have,

I don't want
to lose it, OK?

I just want to
figure it out with you.

Will you give me
another chance?

I'll think about it.

Oh, come on.
I'ma need more than that.

Meet me here tonight after
the game and we can talk.

OK.

All: Ooh!

Player: Go on, man!

You'd better go.

Yeah, I'd better.

I'ma see you tonight.

Breonna: Wouldn't opening
for a platinum artist

who's selling out stadiums
all over the country

be a step up?
Layla: Yeah.

It's an amazing opportunity.
But Elle specifically wanted

smaller,
more intimate venues

just to ease back
into the public eye.

Honestly, after everything
she's been through,

I wouldn't blame her.
Layla: And I'm fine

with whatever Elle wants
to do, whether that's

opening for a certified
star or, you know,

starting small like we
planned, but she's not

responding,
and now I'm in limbo.

Mmm.

Um...

can I-can I ask you
a question?

Sure.

What is a tort?

[Chuckles]

Do you actually
want to know?

I more want to know why
Coop would be interested

in becoming
a...tort lawyer?

-You got it, yeah.
-Mm-hmm.

If you're asking me
if I think Coop

should specialise in tort law...
Layla: Mm-hmm.

absolutely not, but I do
think she should use

her background in music
and go into contract law.

I have always thought she
should be a litigator.

-Really?
-Yeah, yeah.

I lived with her
for three years,

and she can be
very convincing.

-Sounds like you got some tea.
-Yeah. Ha!

But, uh, if you
want me to spill,

I'm gonna need
a drink of my own.

[Crowd cheering and whistling]

Announcer:
The kick's kneeled down

in the end zone
for a touchback.

You got two quarters
to put this one away.

Now go win it, all right?
KJ: Yes, sir, yes, sir!

Offense!
Announcer: And here comes

the Beverly Eagles offence

against the Cimarron Pirates.

[Distant dogs barking]

[Sighs]

So you're the one
Gilbert sent over?

Uh, it was Flip
that reached out, ma'am.

Gilbert's
his government name.

I've been calling him that

since he was
knee-high to a curb.

[Chuckles]

Mmm.
For the record,

we go by full names
in this house.

I'm Miss Ocia.
You can start with yours,

and then tell me
why a Blood OG

would ask me
to hear you out.

Uh, I'm Tamia Cooper.

And thank you
for seeing me, Miss Ocia.

I came here to talk
about Khalil Edwards.

[Scoffs]
Marqui's boy that

wouldn't back him
with the cops?

Respectfully, I-I believe
that is the reason

for Marqui's vendetta.
And I'm concerned that

he's taken this beyond
a personal matter.

He is ignoring the rules
of our community;

the unspoken halo that
protects football players.

He's sending homies
outside the neighbourhood,

risking police attention
and hurting y'all bottom line.

Don't pretend to understand
my business, Tamia.

-Oh, no, I'm sorry. I just-
-Marqui's recklessness

could cause problems
eventually.

But this business
has survived

more than enough
reckless gangbangers.

Young Khalil,
on the other hand,

failed to give
his own father

proper respect.
And if that's

not dealt with, others
might follow his example.

And without respect,

there is no business.

So why should I...
intervene on his behalf?

Because Khalil is
trying to be something.

Because he is a son
of Crenshaw,

and I don't wanna see him
robbed of his future

just like so many other kids
from this neighbourhood.

He deserves that chance.

Because this does go beyond
the Bloods and the Crips.

And the fact that you

allowed me to come here
to say all of this

makes me think that
you believe it, too.

[Whistle blows]
Announcer: With just two seconds

left in the second quarter,
the Eagles will try

for a field goal
to end the half.

Field goal.

[Crowd cheering and whistling,
air horn blows]

You really think he's
gonna take us out

after the second half?
KJ: I don't know.

Grayson: There you go. Got it.
KJ: Mmm.

Announcer: And the kick is good.
Grayson: Let's go, guys.

KJ: Let's go, let's go.
Announcer: The Beverly Eagles go

into the half with a 10-point
lead over the Cimarron Pirates.

That's a two-score lead.

Come on, KJ.
It's 20-10, man.

This game isn't over.

All right, yeah.
We'll talk to him.

KJ: Hey, Coach, look,

I know you said one half,

but this game isn't over,
all right? Let us get

one more touchdown on the
board before you take us out.

Grayson: Come on, Coach.
Let us finish this.

[Sighs]

Everybody listen up!

There's been
a change of plans.

See, I don't like the way
we been playing tonight.

And that's on me
because I told y'all

you ain't got nothing
to play for.

You're already
the number-one seed,

you're already the
top-ranked team.

So what else
is there, right?

Well, we are
forty-two points away

from the Beverly Eagles
regular-season points record.

That's a lot of points
to put up.

Six touchdowns in a half.

I'm talking all gas-
no brakes,

screw field goals-gimme six,
"let that dog out" football!

-Yeah!
-Yeah! It's how you

stamp your name
in the record book.

And I want it!
Do you?

-Yeah!
-Now, do you want it?!

Hell yeah, we want it!
Let's go!

[Players clamouring]

Female singer: ?? Either you,
either you blind or you... ??

Announcer: And welcome to
the start of the second half.

Singer: ?? If you cannot see
it's your head ??

?? Your head
I'm coming after ??

?? I get hype with
the crowd screaming ??

?? Me and mine,
we gonna be the reason ??

KJ: Blue 82! Set, go!
Singer: ?? 'Cause I mean it ??

?? Nah, we ain't friends,
homies or none of the sort ??

Announcer: Jeremy under threat.
He slips the tackle and...

Singer: ?? You coming for mine,
I'm coming for yours ??

?? And I don't like you,
so why would I try to do??

?? Anything else but abort
you and your mission? ??

-What a run!
-?? Bout to begin is a war, ah! ??

?? We don't back down ??

Announcer: Touchdown,
Beverly Eagles.

-Whoo! Whoo!
-?? Can't hold me down ??

?? It's in my soul ??

?? Give all you got ??

Cassius: Yeah!
KJ: All right, Coach.

-Come on, man.
-So, uh,

I guess this is where
you're pulling me?

Or are you really letting us
make a go at this record?

I am not pulling you.
We're just getting started,

all right? We got to put
more than sixty points

on that board tonight, son.
KJ: All right, let's do it.

-You ready?
-Yeah. Let's do it.

Let's do it. Let's do it.
Let's go, let's go. Come on.

Singer: ?? We don't back down ??
[Layla and Breonna laugh]

So she printed off

the terms of service
and everything.

And I swear,
they would've paid me

to change my oil by the time
she was done with them.

I won't argue.

She's impressive.

Whatever she decides
to focus on,

she'd be...
incredible at it.

Hmm.

What?

-Can I ask you another question?
-Listen,

if you want to talk
about torts,

I can go all night long.
[Layla chuckles]

What's your deal
with Coop?

I mean, you've obviously
taken an interest in her.

She's my student.
That's all.

Funny. Coop said
the same thing.

But it is-it's obvious
that there's more than

just an academic connection
between you two.

Look, Coop just got out
of a long-term relationship.

I am protective over her,
I don't want her to get hurt,

but...I mean, it would be
a shame if whatever's

happening between you two
went unacknowledged.

Relationships between
professor and student

are obviously not encouraged.
Layla: Mm-hmm.

You think I'd risk all that
for someone who stood me up?

Oh, I know.
She texted she'd be late,

but at this point,
it's clear

she has other priorities.
Layla: Tonight, she does.

You're right, and, uh,
it's not my place

to say what kept her,
but I think you'd understand.

Look, just give her
a little more time.

I know Coop, and I know
how important you are to her.

[Sighs]

Hey, hey.
How'd it go?

Flip will reach out
when we get an answer.

OK. OK. Um, well,

regardless of how
this turns out, I-

I really appreciate
what you did.

And I know
Khalil does, too.

He's lucky to have someone
like you in his corner.

Not everyone has that.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess not...

Everything all right?

Yeah. Yeah,
we'll talk later.

I know you got
your date.

-Oh, come on. It's not a date.
-OK, well, whatever it is.

[Sighs]
Come on, Amina.

I-I am always
available for you.

[Inhales deeply, sighs]

Well, it's just I thought my
mum was one of those people.

Someone who never
got a real chance.

Who never had anyone
on her side.

Maybe if she had,

she would've been
a good person.

Amina, what happened,
it-it wasn't all Mo.

OK, sure, she played
a part in it,

but so did I and
so did your dad.

But it was her,

and I know that now.

And I realised that after
talking to my grandparents.

They left Crenshaw
when she got in trouble.

They put her through law
school to give her a future.

They helped her raise me.

They thought
she had changed.

But she never did.

Not really.

She was never the person
I thought she was.

-But she did change-
-Then why come back, huh?

She had a life,

family...

me.

How could she
give that all up?

[Sighs]

Grief.

Look, Amina,

the mother
that you remember,

that loved you, was real.

And I believe she'd still
be that same woman today

if she hadn't lost
her brother.

That life she had with you,
it changed her for the better.

But her grief
from losing Tyrone,

it-it overpowered her.

I don't think we should
blame her for that.

She almost killed you.

Grief also twisted
who she was,

and I see that now.

In fact,
the hardest part for me

wasn't forgiving her,

it was accepting
how grateful I am.

Grateful for what?

Grateful for you.

Because I know
that she put

the best parts
of herself in you.

And you, my girl,

you're incredible.

Female singer:
?? I walk the fire ??

?? I'll fall into ??

?? Your reverie ??

?? I'll let it all ??

?? Wash over me ??

-?? Yeah, yeah ??
?? So get in check ??

?? We a threat, you gon' wish
we never met ??

Announcer: What a catch!
Touchdown, Eagles!

Singer: ?? So get in check,
we a threat ??

?? You gon' wish we never met ??

-?? On me ??
-?? That's a bet ??

-?? On me ??
-?? That's a bet ??

?? Yeah, feel
the tension rising ??

Announcer:
Beverly is now up by 31.

Singer: ?? I hope you got it
wired in ??

?? Make you wanna get away ??

?? I don't mean like an island,
Moves I'm bout to make ??

Announcer: Another touchdown
for the Beverly Eagles.

-?? Yeah, I was smiling ??
-?? So get in check we a threat ??

?? You gon' wish
we never met ??

-?? On me ??
-?? That's a bet ??

Announcer: Beverly is
dominating tonight.

Singer: ?? So get in check,
we a threat ??

Announcer: The Eagles
looking to add more to what

we can only call
a dominating performance.

-?? That's a bet ??
-?? See my presence ??

-[Blows whistle]
-?? It's an essence ??

?? Don't be sorry ??

?? Learn the lessons ??

Player: Yo, man!

[Players shouting]

Cassius: Come on, man.
Talkin' about!

Hey, Coach, someone's
gonna get hurt if we

keep running up the score.
Cassius: That ain't on us, man,

they lost their heads.
KJ: It is if we keep

embarrassing them like this.
Isn't the most important part

of this game leaving healthy?
Cassius: We're not done yet.

One more touchdown,
all right?

Wait, the points record?
You really want it that bad?

I thought that was just
a rallying cry-

It is proof that we are
the best team that Beverly has

ever put on this field.
Tell me you don't want that.

Because they do.

Yo, what's really
going on, Dad?

This isn't who we are.
Cassius: If you don't want

this record, take a seat so I
can put in someone who does.

Cassius: Hey, come here.

Male singer:
?? I been running super hard ??

?? It's like a marathon,
I don't chase the bag ??

?? I treat it like a carry on ??

KJ: Blue 32!

Blue 32! Set, go!

Singer: ?? Entertain 'em,
you know no pain ain't no gain ??

?? Ain't no shame,
I leave them amazed ??

?? Ain't no gain, I don't want
to change nothing ??

Announcer: What a pass!
[Crowd cheering]

Singer: ?? I just give them
what they came to see ??

Announcer:
Touchdown, Beverly!

Eagles 62, Pirates 10.

Hey, no, no, no.
Stay down, stay down.

Hey, put us in that
record book, though.

Background singers:
?? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... ??

Grayson: Get me up.

[Groans]

Whoo!

[Crowd cheering and whistling]

Singer: ?? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ??

?? I just give them what
they came to see ??

Male singer: ?? Hey, hey ??

Female singer: ?? Slow dance now
I'll getaway ??

?? Freeze frame, pause... ??
Breonna: Well, you made it.

Singer:
?? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ??

Breonna. Heh!
Sorry I'm late.

I didn't think it'd
take me that long-

Don't worry about it.

Your friend took
really good care of me.

-[Sighs] All right.
-So,

busy night?
Coop: Yeah, and it might

take me a minute before
I even think about what

I want to specialise in,
if that's all right.

Actually,
how would you feel about

saving that conversation
for another time?

No, I-I mean,
I would feel horrible

after you've waited
all this time.

I don't mind.
I thought maybe tonight,

we could just get to know
each other a little better.

I'd like that.

Me, too.

Layla: Um, stay as long
as you like...

[Both chuckle]
and bottle's on the house.

-Thank you, Layla.
-Yeah.

It was so good
to meet you.

-You, too.
-[Chuckles]

Well, it seems like
you two got along well.

-What makes you say that?
-She left you a note.

Actually,
she left us a note,

and it says, "You're only
professor and student

for another couple weeks."

[Both chuckle]

Cheers.
To good friends.

[Phone vibrates]

Thank you.

[Sighs]
KJ: Hey, how you feeling?

Grayson: I'm good, bro.

I just tweaked
my hamstring a little.

I should be good
for next game.

Or you can be out
for a month.

Man, I know how tricky
hamstring injuries can be.

[Sighs]

Doctor said it's
a wait-and-see.

You could miss
the playoffs.

Man, he should have
never let this happen.

Hey, this ain't
on your dad, KJ.

I wanted that touchdown
just as much as he did.

We all did.
KJ: No, something

changed in him
during that game.

I mean, he wasn't
coaching like himself.

I-I got to find out
what it was.

Hey, um, I'm starting
to get worried

about you, Elle.
Just, um, call me back, OK?

[Phone vibrates]

[Ropes slapping]

Amina: Hey.
Khalil: Heh!

I'm not making barging in
on you in the gym a thing,

I promise.
Khalil: Heh!

You should check
your phone.

Uh...sorry I
dipped on you.

I just needed
to clear my head.

And, look, even if Coop isn't
able to change things for me,

thank you.

Both of you.

For caring enough
to try.

Everybody deserves
a chance.

Coop says the Crips
are gonna give you one.

-Yo, for real?
-I don't know what she said

or who she talked to,
but you don't have to worry

about your dad or his guys
coming after you anymore.

[Breath trembles]

Hey, you all right?

Yeah, I just-
I just didn't believe

it would actually work.

Guys like me don't
usually get off easy.

Mmm, I'm not sure "easy"
is the right word.

[Sighs]
Finally feels like I might...

have a real path out.

Sure beats
the alternative.

Well, no more
obstacles or excuses.

Now you get to choose
who you want to be.

Tougher than it sounds, but...
Khalil: Maybe.

But right now,
I just feel free.

Whoa, uh,
what was that?

I don't know. It just, uh,
felt right in the moment.

[Scoffs]

"In the moment."
Yeah, uh,

Khalil, it's been
an emotional day.

I think we should
call it a night.

Meen, I-I thought
you wanted this.

Seriously?

What I wanted is for you
to really see me.

To get me.

Not to be the girl
you just kiss

"in the moment"
because I happened

to be the person standing
in front of you.

-Amina, I-
-Uh, don't you dare say

that that's not what this
was because if it wasn't,

you wouldn't have said,
"I don't know."

[Scoffs]

Y'know, I used to think
the problem was me.

That I wasn't enough.

For my mum, for you.

But I was reminded today
that I am more than enough.

Always have been.

I am so glad I can
finally see that now.

So don't worry,
I'm not-I'm not mad

at you because
that was on me.

Female singer:
?? I wish I could be... ??

I will always be
your friend, Khalil.

But if you want
more than that,

you're gonna have
to put in the work.

-?? I wish that I had... ??
-I'm worth that.

Singer: ?? superpowers to take
your pain away ??

-Good night.
-?? But since I'm only human ??

?? I'll be there
holding your hand ??

?? On the other end ??

?? Just trying my best ??

?? To be a good friend ??

Background singers:
?? Oh, oh, oh, oh ??

-[Chatting and laughing]
-?? To be a good friend ??

?? Oh, oh, oh, oh ??

?? Oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh ??

[Laughter fading]

Cassius: Look, I am sorry
Grayson got injured.

He shouldn't have still
been in the game,

and you know it.
Cassius: I made a decision, son.

Maybe it was the wrong one, but
what else do you want from me?

KJ: I want to know what
happened out there.

Something changed
your mind.

Good game tonight, son.

What are you
doing here?

KJ: I invited him.

But he never said he
was actually coming.

I was actually surprised
you weren't the one

to reach out, Cassius,
considering how you

finally put our plan
in motion.

What's Pop-Pop
talking about?

You haven't told him?

I told you I didn't
want him involved in this.

KJ: Involved in what?

Hey, somebody tell me
what's going on here.

Sit down, KJ.

It's time you learned
why the Jeremy men

have really come
to Los Angeles.

Man: Greg,
move your head!
