Original subtitles

[Destiny] Previously on Big Shot...

-[machine whirring] -[thuds]

[Marvyn] Isn't he great?

You bought the statue of you that Wisconsin tore down?

It'll be good for the girls to see you in that position.

-Are you leaving? -No!

I mean, eventually, yes.

This was always supposed to be a pit stop on my way back to college ball.

How about you just wait until he's not around to throw a party?

Behind his back?

[crowd chattering loudly]

[whistle blowing]

-Out. -Lucas? He didn't do anything.

Really? He got in a fist fight in my kitchen?

This thing between the two of you? It's over.

[cell phone chimes]

[cell phone chimes]

[cell phone dings]

[groaning]

[cell phone chimes]

[cell phone dings]

[cell phone chiming]

I know. I look like crap. Blame the Internet.

Someone's posting pictures of my statue

and they're connecting me to it, or tagging me or whatever.

-[typing] -[cell phones ding]

"The Kalm Korn thing? Hilarious." Oh, yeah, real hilarious.

I don't even understand it. How can I think it's hilarious?

Oh, you're not talking to me.

[typing]

[cell phones ding]

Mmm, well, don't hold your breath.

-Unbelievable! -[cell phone chimes]

[groans]

[cell phone dings]

Lucas.

Lucas is doing this, isn't he?

He's trying to get revenge. He's trying to taunt me, isn't he?

-[typing] -Tell him...

[cell phone dings]

Yes, he is. He's got motive. He's got opportunity.

He knows how to do this elaborate programming.

[typing]

-Come on! -[cell phone dings]

You talked to him?

-[typing] -[cell phone dings]

You're both in on this, aren't you? You know what? Forget it.

I've got one more game to get to DII. I'm not gonna be distracted by--

-[cell phone dings] -[stammers]

[Marvyn sighs]

Come on!

[cell phone chimes]

[rhythmic clapping]

[crowd cheers]

[buzzer sounds]

Morning.

Can you guess why I'm so angry at you?

Uh, because you have anger issues?

Only around you.

I don't know.

Uh, is it because Emma had that party Friday night?

Look, don't worry about it. I've grounded her.

I did hear about it from many concerned parents,

but that's not why I'm mad. Try again.

Oh, is it that... Kalm Korn thing?

I have nothing to do with it. I think it's stupid too.

Really? I liked it. Thought it was kind of funny.

-You did? -Best part of my morning. Try again.

I give up. I don't know. Just tell me.

Some of the board members heard that your agent was beating the bushes,

trying to find you another job back in college ball.

Are you trying to leave us?

I was, okay? But I'm not now. I'm stuck in coach jail.

So, don't worry. I'm going nowhere.

-But you want to go? -Yes. Eventually, I wanna go.

That was always the plan, but I'm here now.

-Just relax. Everybody relax. -Be sure.

Because some of the board members are skittish about you.

I don't care what the board members think.

You should. They think it's time to find a new coach,

and with Larry Gruzinsky gone, you don't have a lot of friends left here.

I'm here.

And all I care about is getting these girls to DII.

Okay. Well, you can do that Wednesday by beating Point Linda.

That should settle down some of the board members.

Don't worry. We're gonna beat Point Linda. No problem.

Holly is running the girls through practice right now.

-Holly? -Yeah. I gave her my Mondays.

Hmm. Marvyn, I'm impressed.

You don't seem like a "share practices" kind of guy.

Well, you know,

I think it's good for her to get this kind of experience under her belt.

Oh.

What?

You came up with this last week, when you were trying to leave?

It-- Just forget about all that.

The whys don't matter, okay? What matters is results.

I knew I was right.

Speaking of results, you going to get that court fixed?

-Working on it. -Need to work a little harder.

[shouts]

[Holly] No! No! Samantha to Loui--

Okay, stop! Stop. Bring it in. Bring it in.

[sighs] Samantha, you are the point guard. You are running the offense.

You need to know this playbook front to back.

Otherwise, Point Linda's gonna make a fool of us.

[scoffs]

Okay, I know Point Linda's not the greatest team...

Not the greatest? I mean, they're jokes.

-It's a performing arts school. -[chuckling]

I don't think they've ever won anything ever.

-I'm sure they have. Once. -[door opens]

-Please. This game is a gimme. -[Marvyn] No such thing.

What are you doing here, Coach? Isn't this Holly's practice?

Yeah. She's doing Mondays, but, uh--

So you're what? Snooping on her? Spying?

You can't stand that we're practicing without you, can you?

Oh, please.

No, I just came by to check the progress of the floor here.

And I see that there's none.

-If that's not ready by game time-- -Then we'll play at Point Linda.

No. No, no. We're not giving up home court.

Especially when we have DII on the line here. No.

Coach. We're going to beat Point Linda.

See, that's the exact attitude--

Sorry. I completely commandeered your practice.

-I'll just-- No, no, no. -No, no, no. Coach. Coach.

It's fine. I know you wanna speechify.

Thank you.

That's the exact attitude we shouldn't have.

We have to expect the unexpected.

We can't slow down just because we have the advantage.

We have to put the pedal to the metal. No distractions, right?

-Total focus. We-- -[cell phone chimes]

God.

-[cell phone dings] -No. This-- [clicks tongue]

Has a-- Have you guys seen this dumb, Korn-- Kalm Korn thing?

-[all laugh] -[Marvyn] What's so funny?

Everyone's seen it.

My favorite is Kalm Korn in a field of lilies.

It's really funny.

Is it?

[cell phone chimes]

Who's doing it? You guys know who's doing this thing?

Well, as long as it's none of you.

'Cause if you're focused on this, then you're not focused on the game.

-This is completely off-limits. Got it? -[cell phone dings]

[cell phone chimes]

[laughing]

[Holly] Okay. Let's get back to work.

How-- It's not even funny.

[girls chuckling]

Okay. Give me this. Let's go back out. Let's try again!

It's Emma. She's hardheaded. Just like her mother.

So she's still not talking to you?

If you call texting talking.

You ever think maybe you're overreacting? You know, to everything?

-No. -[chuckles]

[Maggie] Good morning. [chuckles]

-Coffee? -Yes.

It's a very bold roast today.

Which I suspect you'll need

after our wine flight at Angelini's last night.

Well, if it isn't Kalm Korn.

Wait. Sorry, no. You're the crazy one.

Unfortunately, I never received my invitation to your Friday soiree.

-[sighs] -Yeah.

Or is Club Korn strictly 17 and under?

It wasn't a soiree. It was a party, and it just happened.

Oh, it just happened?

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Marvyn Korn is innocent.

The party just happened.

It was an immaculate conception of a party.

You are the adult. The responsibility lies with you.

Give it a rest, Terry. We broke it up as soon as we got there.

"We"? Oh.

So you were at this party too? How curious.

We went to dinner, and then Emma called.

Dinner now? Do you hear that? They went to dinner.

What do you think about that?

I think...

you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

[chuckles] I trust Marvyn implicitly.

In fact, he and I had a very lovely dinner last night.

Our third, I might add.

Which means that we are now officially dating. [laughs]

-Oh. -Oh!

Right?

-Yes. -[Maggie chuckles]

-Yes. We're dating. -Yeah.

We're dating. [laughs]

Well, it's not that I wanna keep it a secret.

It's just that, you know, I'm private.

Plus, look. I got enough distractions in my life.

-I want to stay focused on basketball. -Basketball. Yes, I know.

Which reminds me, I need your court for my play.

-For what? -To put the stage on, silly.

I thought you were doing the play in the cafeteria?

No, no. We rehearse there, but for the performance,

I need a much bigger venue.

Well-- No. I'm having enough problems trying to get it fixed by the time--

-The game is coming-- -Marvyn.

As long as it's done before opening night next week, it'll work out beautifully.

-Yeah, but-- -I thank you,

and your daughter thanks you.

-[cell phone chimes] -Better not be another Kalm Korn post.

Oh, if only it were. I have to go.

And thanks again for the court.

Yeah, but I-- I didn't say yes.

What's going on? We're gonna be late for first period.

I called you all here because it seems the curse of this play has struck again.

I just word that, Charlotte, our Beth Macbeth,

has broken her femur slipping on an empanada.

-Wait. She literally broke a leg? -[chuckling]

Isn't irony the cruelest of all literary conceits?

So, we find ourselves in need of a new lead

one week before opening night.

[chuckles]

Who among you is interested in throwing your crown into the ring?

Miss Goodwyn.

-Miss Goodwyn! Miss Goodwyn! -[chuckling]

Anyone? Is there a Beth Macbeth out there? A brave soul?

[Harper] Yes. Me.

I am her understudy, so I am the obvious replacement.

Auditions proved it.

Well, everyone else has already auditioned,

-and I suppose the role is yo-- -[Emma] I didn't audition.

[gasps]

I wasn't here. I'd like to try.

Huh.

[scoffs]

Miss Goodwyn.

Can you believe the audacity of this Janey-come-lately?

You're only considering this because you're dating her dad.

That's called nepotism, and it's not fair, Mother.

Think about what you just said!

And what have I told you about calling me that in school?

Wait. Wait, wait, wait. She's your daughter?

I had her keep her father's name so I wouldn't upstage her.

No. It's because you were afraid of being upstaged by me, Mother.

-[murmuring] -[Maggie] I have decided.

Emma and Harper will meet anon on the battlefield of audition,

and a new King-Queen Beth Macbeth shall be crowned.

Ha, ha!

[Maggie] Go to class. Go.

[chattering]

Well, Judas.

I hope you're prepared for the audition.

I, of course, have been rehearsing this part with Mother all along.

Oh, I'll be prepared.

I'll just get Lucas to help me run lines, and he's even better than Mother Goodwyn.

-Everything okay? -She's infuriating.

I have to audition against her for this part.

I'm the understudy. It should be mine.

You know, I could help you run lines after school.

Be the Lucas to your Emma?

Mouse, you're the best.

Let's do it. I'll see you after school.

You're a great friend.

Mouse, just tell her you like her.

-What if she doesn't feel the same way? -Then you'll know.

Trust me, it's better to know.

How would you do it?

Me? Probably badly, but I have faith in you.

You'll figure it out.

[school bell rings]

[locker closes]

[chattering, laughing]

How many coffee breaks can they take?

I don't know. I gotta take care of this. Watch this.

[Holly sighs]

Excuse me.

Hi. Nice to finally meet you.

-I'm Marvyn Korn. This is Holly over here. -How do you do?

Hey. Jerry.

Pleasure.

-How's it coming along? -Getting there.

Yeah.

I know you and your boys are gonna get this done in time,

but Holly here, she's like a little nervous Nellie.

She thinks you're not gonna make the deadline by Wednesday's game,

and I say you are gonna make it.

I mean, she doesn't know a nail from a hammer.

So, back me up here, Jerry. Right?

No, that-- The lady's right.

I mean, you're looking end of the week on this, minimum.

-Huh. -End of the week?

Jerry, you're killing me.

A win Wednesday gets us to Division II. We need this.

Help us. Help me. Please.

-Help you? -Yeah.

Yeah. Not a fan.

Oh.

-You're not a fan of basketball, what? -No. I like the players...

but those who can't do coach, and you're barely even that anymore.

So... [chuckling] ...yeah.

-Not a fan. -Yeah. Okay, good.

Are you a fan of getting paid, Jerry?

Because if you don't get this done in time,

I'm gonna get the next contractor out here like that.

Oh, fine. You're gonna play it like that?

All right. Then keep everybody out of the gym for 48 hours.

I'll do what I can.

You got it.

Come on.

-See what I did there? -Yeah. You threw me under a bus

and pissed off a guy who could bench press you with one arm.

No, I didn't. I didn't back down. I didn't accept anything but the win.

Marvyn, they're not gonna finish. You heard the guy. He's not a fan.

If we have to clear out for two days, where are we going to practice?

You'll find a place for us to practice.

That feels like a you thing.

[huffs]

[sighs]

You don't have to spend all of lunch studying that.

We have to beat Point Linda.

-[murmurs] -Oh, my God.

Is that a new Kalm Korn post?

-[groans] I didn't get any notifications. -[giggles]

Because I haven't posted it yet.

Wait. You're Kalm Korn?

We're Kalm Korn.

We got the idea after Coach went all aggro over Emma's party.

We figure maybe we can show him how to live his best life and have fun.

It was only supposed to be a couple posts, but then it kind of blew up.

Seriously.

Even that Jake guy from Carlsbad is posting it all on his story.

Because he has a thing for Olive.

Stop. I mean, you're right, but...

I think we should pull the plug before Coach finds out it's us.

Even if he does, he'll get over it. He's got a sense of humor.

Does he?

Don't worry. I think it's brilliant.

-Thank you. -[chuckling]

See? We got this.

[Marvyn] All right. This is good for practice. It'll work.

[Holly] Great. And listen, I know you think that you have bullied Jerry

into getting the floor fixed in time for the game,

but just in case he doesn't, we also have this as a backup plan.

I don't believe in backup plans.

What do you mean, you don't believe in backup plans?

Well, if you have a backup plan, then you're--

then you're acknowledging the possibility of failure.

And if you acknowledge the possibility of failure, then you've failed.

Okay. Even I don't understand that, and I'm practically fluent in Kornspeak.

Jerry is gonna get the thing finished, right?

-Why don't you let me handle the floor? -Good.

You know, unless you think I'm too much of a nervous Nellie?

Because I don't know a hammer from a nail.

You know why I did that.

Yeah, I do, and you shouldn't have. It diminishes me.

We're supposed to have each other's backs.

Okay. Point taken.

-Let's go. -[sighs]

Calculus is the worst.

Yeah. Okay.

Hey, two more questions and then we go get ice cream.

-[sighs] -Hey. How's your dad's case going?

No one's guaranteeing it,

but I think he's just gonna get a slap on the wrist like you said.

Do you think he did it?

I think he turned our lives upside down and never apologized.

At least house arrest means he's not breathing down my neck at games anymore.

He'd lose his mind if he knew I was moved to shooting guard.

You're not gonna tell him?

Okay. Forget calculus.

Uh, let me just go grab my jacket and then let's go.

Yes!

[Angel] She just seems upset lately.

-[Christina] Who? Destiny? -Yes.

[Christina] She seems fine.

[Angel] The Gruzinsky girl is here a lot.

[Christina] A lot of attitude for a simple observation.

[Angel] I'm worried she's dumping all her problems on Destiny.

Clearly, someone needs to look after our girl.

[chuckles] Our girl?

If you wanted to be her mother,

you should have made that choice 16 years ago when you had her.

[Angel] Wow.

Okay.

-I'm sorry. -No.

You're right. We made a deal.

You raise her, I stay out of it.

Far away.

Angel. Angel, you know that's not what I meant.

[sniffles]

I mean, I don't even...

I know. I mean, I don't know,

but I know what it feels like to have the rug pulled out from under you.

They've been lying to me my whole life.

And I-- I mean, I don't even know what to do with it.

This is insane.

[Destiny sniffles]

Can you, um...

Can you just keep this to yourself for a little bit?

So I can, like, figure out... [inhales]

...what to do because it's a lot.

Yeah.

You need me, I'm here.

[sniffles] Thanks.

Hey, Emma.

Here he is.

You're welcome.

It's cool. My dad already went inside.

How do you feel?

About my dad? Can't stand him.

Yeah, I was actually thinking about your audition today.

Nervous.

I really, really want this.

Getting the lead, it feels like it's my chance to be something

other than Marvyn Korn's daughter.

Hey.

You're gonna get this.

-[groans] -You can do this.

You'll be great.

-I miss you. -Miss you too.

Look at Midwest Molly over there.

Preening for her beau.

If she gets this role--

She won't. You will.

Will I?

She's a wild card.

The element of surprise is on her side.

[Mouse] I don't know.

I kind of feel like she's only doing this play so she can hang out with Lucas.

Especially now that Coach has forbidden them from seeing each other.

[scoffs]

Forbidden love.

There's nothing more romantic, is there?

[Mouse] I agree.

What could be worse than caring about someone

and not being able to do anything about it?

Exactly.

I mean, if they're in love,

they should just say something to Coach Korn.

[sighs] If only he knew.

Or, if only she knew.

Who? Emma?

No. Mother.

Mother could never resist a tragic love story.

-Mouse, you're brilliant. -Am I?

Yeah.

[cell phone dings]

Wow. Uh, sorry. Gotta go.

Coach wants us to meet him right now.

Okay.

[exhales]

-Why are we here? -What does he want from us?

What Korn are we gonna get? Mad Korn? Happy Korn?

-Do I get to go back to bed? -[rattles]

What did I tell you guys about this?

I said it was off-limits.

If you're concentrating on this crap,

then you're not focusing on the game tomorrow.

But, no. Everybody seemed to like it. Look at that.

Mouse, Destiny, Olive.

All of you liked it, and some of you even made some nice comments.

If you guys aren't gonna listen to me,

then I'm forced to take the choice out of your hands.

So, give me your phones.

Wait, what?

Um, we're not Emma.

You can't forbid us to do stuff. We have lives.

No. Not when we have a must-win game tomorrow. Phones.

-No. -Phones!

-[Holly] Marvyn. -I got this.

Come on. Phones. Here.

Come on. Destiny. Come on, come on.

Look, I don't care about the stupid game.

I don't know who you think you are,

but some of us are dealing with things more important than basketball.

There is nothing more important than basketball!

That's what I'm trying to get through your heads.

-Don't you-- -I'm Kalm Korn!

-What did you say? -Don't. Don't.

[sighs] I'm Kalm Korn.

I've been putting the posts up.

You put up all those... pictures of me?

I'm Kalm Korn too.

It was funny. It was just a harmless, fun joke.

Harmless? Funny.

Everything's funny.

You guys don't take anything seriously, do you?

Did... the rest of you know about this?

Mouse?

Louise?

All right. I'm done with all of you.

[slams]

[Holly sighs]

-Is he serious? -What's happening?

Wow.

Marvyn! Hold on. Wait up. Wait up!

-Hey, why are you so upset about this? -What?

-They're just having fun. -They're turning me into a joke.

So what? Are you so sensitive you can't take a joke?

No. Yes!

[stammers]

Look, back in the day, nobody would have pulled this crap.

All I wanna do is get back to college basketball. Do you get it?

And every day it just seems more and more distant, and this?

This is sheer--

What, it diminishes you? Makes you feel like they don't respect you?

-Yes. -Well, I don't think it does.

I think it humanizes you.

That's exactly what colleges aren't looking for in a coach,

and didn't you say you were gonna finish this floor?

-[workers laughing] -I am.

But if I'm doing this, someone has to take care of the girls.

Unless you're done with them.

I'm not done. I just-- I need a break from them.

[scoffs]

All right. No, I'll take care of the girls. Yeah.

Great. I'll take care of the floor.

Good.

-Is he coming back? -Who knows? Who cares?

I do! He's so mad at me. What am I gonna do?

It was just a joke, okay? He'll calm down.

What if he doesn't?

[cell phones vibrate, ding]

Well, there's your answer.

Guess we better not be "lat."

[Maggie] Beautiful work, Miss Korn.

What a Sophie's Choice you've given me.

And yet... [inhales] ...I have made my decision. [sighs]

[clears throat]

The leading role of Beth Macbeth will go to...

Harper Schapira.

-Yes! [sighs] -[applause, cheering]

[Samantha] I'll handle this. [sighs]

Doesn't anyone wanna try and make me change my mind?

-No. -No.

[sighs]

We know you're angry, and we know we screwed up.

Mostly me and a little bit Olive.

I'll take it from here.

We're sorry we lied to you.

If we'd known you'd be that sensitive about Kalm Korn, we wouldn't have done it.

But also it's not that big of a deal.

You guys are missing what I'm trying to teach you here.

We've got one game, right?

What if you lose to Point Linda? Then what?

You've got one more game to make it to DII and that's Carlsbad.

Beat Carlsbad. You really wanna take those chances?

No, but we won't have to.

Right. Um...

Her. Take a look at that girl.

What if you guys had to play her, five-on-one.

Obviously, you would win, but what if?

-[Louise] Obviously. -Obviously.

And you would.

99 out of 100 times, you would beat her, but what about that one time?

What about that one time

when something unexpected happens and you're not prepared?

You're not 100% focused, 100% on point like I always talk about. What then?

Huh?

Hold on. Excuse me.

What is he doing?

No idea, but I'm super tempted to make a Kalm Korn post about it.

...do a five-on-one playing with these girls?

I'm trying to teach 'em a lesson.

Yeah. I got you.

All right, Louise. You got your wish.

-Uh, what's your name? -Chelsea.

Chelsea here says she'll play you guys five-on-one.

My five starters against her.

First five baskets win.

Let's do it!

[hip hop music playing]

Let's go.

Just--

-Come on. Come on. -Olive!

[Marvyn] Hey! Good. Good. Good! Okay.

-Look at that. -I'm wide. I'm wide.

Clearly a set up.

Guess we're meant to learn a lesson here.

-Should we forfeit now, or-- -Come on. We don't forfeit.

It's just one girl. I think we can take her.

[Marvyn] Come on, girls! Hustle! What happened there?

[Marvyn] She's one against five of you! Move!

Cut right through you!

Whoa! Aw.

[Marvyn] What happened, girls?

Five, one.

Good job, Chels.

[music ends]

-Thanks, Chels. -Anytime, Coach.

I would have given anything to have been coached by him.

You don't realize how lucky you are.

Listen to him.

[sighs] Okay. You made your point.

-Yeah, with a ringer. -So what?

She was an opponent you underestimated.

I don't know what to do anymore.

I don't know how to get through to you. I really don't.

You wanted our phones.

I wanna win, Coach.

[sighs]

-Let's practice. -All right.

[sighs]

Good.

All right. If you ladies are willing to sacrifice, so am I.

I hope you don't have dinner plans 'cause we're gonna be here a while.

Come on. Let's go.

Three-man weave. Let's hustle!

[chattering]

Happy?

Yeah. Yeah, they did a beautiful job.

They worked through the night to get it done.

What did you do, threaten 'em?

No, I apologized for how you did.

And then I let Bianchi's Pizza do the rest of the work.

It turns out a little kindness goes a long way.

Hey, I have to head out and pick up some gifts

-I bought for the girls before the game. -For?

For making it to DII, which we will do today.

That's right. Hey, are you just getting girls gifts or--

[stammers]

-There might be something for you as well. -Okay. All right, good.

-I give you my permission to leave. -I do not need that, but thank you.

By the way, Goodwyn came by looking for you.

Oh, she probably wants to ask about using the gym for her play thing, huh?

Yeah. I have no idea.

Maybe you should ask her. She said she'd be in the teachers' lounge.

Hey, kid.

-Hey, you. -Heard you were looking for me.

-Hey, the court looks great. -Thank you.

Listen, I know you wanna use it for your play,

but I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make the sched--

I bet you can, but that's not what I came to see you about.

You forbade Emma from speaking to Lucas outside of play rehearsal?

Yeah, for the party she threw.

-Shame on you, Marvyn. -What?

Emma and Lucas are as innocent and sweet as they come.

They love each other, and love is the rarest of all birds.

It should be encouraged.

And that is why I cast them as husband and wife.

-You did what? -[chuckles]

What do you-- Why would you do that? To spite me?

No! I did it for you.

Marvyn, children are a do-over.

Our chance at redemption.

We can't let our failures fail them.

You're welcome. You can thank me later tonight.

You hate that Maggie and I are a thing, don't you?

It's an HR nightmare for you, isn't it?

On the contrary. I think it's wonderful.

-You do? -Of course.

I bet she brings out sides of you not even you knew you had.

Before you were like a rusty old bike with one gear.

Now you're a ten-speed.

George, I don't care about all that.

I wanna focus on winning the game today.

Ten-speeds and all this stuff you're talking about, it's distractions.

Everything's already a mess.

It's funny, what you call "a mess," most people call life.

And life is about more than basketball.

Guess who understands that better than you?

If you say Kalm Korn...

I didn't have to.

See ya at the game.

[door opens, closes]

[Marvyn] It all comes down to this.

The final push to DII.

And there's a new gym floor out there, and there's a new scoreboard.

There's something more important that's new:

enthusiasm.

Enthusiasm, you girls have it!

And if you have it...

it can prepare you for anything.

Let's go win a basketball game, huh?

-Sirens on three. One, two, three, Sirens! -[all] Sirens!

[Marvyn] Right! [claps]

Hey, where's Holly? Anyone hear from Holly?

You have all of our phones, Coach.

Right. Okay, hold on.

Uh-huh.

[humming]

Here, come get your phones.

[door closes]

[hums]

-Hey, this is Holly. Leave a message. -Where are you?

We're about to play Point Linda. You don't wanna miss this game.

Well, I hope you're on your way. Bye.

[cell phone dings]

[Holly] Marvyn, I've been trying to reach you, but it keeps going to voice mail.

My car died on the freeway, and I called a tow truck,

I jumped in, and it-- Wait, hang on one second.

Hey, when I said to hurry, I didn't mean--

-Careful! -[tires screeching on phone]

[crash through phone]

Girls gather 'round. Come on.

Holly's been in a car accident.

-Oh, my God. -What?

-Is she okay? -I don't know.

I was on with the hospital, and they wouldn't tell me.

[sirens wailing in distance]

[knocks]

[chattering]

Feel like company?

Marvyn, what are you doing here?

-Why aren't you at the game? -We forfeited.

What? Why did you do that?

Well, I'll let your team tell ya.

-Are you okay? -[Holly] Oh.

Yeah. I'm-- I'm fine.

They think I might have a concussion.

So they just wanna keep me here for observation.

I can't believe you guys forfeited.

[Holly inhales]

This was our big game. This was gonna get us to DII.

Well, you were such a big part of getting us there.

We wanted you to be there when we clinched it.

And we have one more game.

Yeah. Against Carlsbad.

McCarthy, remember?

So, we'll clinch it against them.

We've only ever won one game against them the whole time I've coached at Westbrook.

Well, we'll just have to make history.

And we will.

We were prepped for Point Linda, but the universe told us we were wrong.

Now, we're prepped to beat Carlsbad.

Besides, what's the fun in winning a game if it's just a gimme?

[chuckles]

Thanks for being here.

It means the world to me.

Step out a sec, girls.

-Talk to Holly. -Bye, Coach.

-Feel better, Coach. -Bye.

Thank you, girls.

[door opens]

-[Marvyn chuckles] -[door closes]

-[sighs] Marvyn, I'm so sorry. -Oh, come on.

We're just so happy you're in one piece.

It was--

It... changed everything...

Suddenly, I didn't really care about basketball.

I mean, you cared a little about the game.

I cared a little, yeah.

[chuckles]

You know, when people are so focused on winning in life,

sometimes they forget to look around

and see the people that are helping them win.

You said I diminished you, and I will not make that mistake again.

I can't believe you forfeited.

Holly,

how many times have I had to tell you

there are more important things in life than basketball?

You know if I was stronger, I would hit you?

Thank you.

-[door opens, closes] -Well, is she okay?

-You're talking to me now? -Dad!

Yeah, she's okay.

-[sighs] -She's gonna be okay. She's a trooper.

I'm sorry that I missed your text.

I thought you were blowing me off.

No. Never. I'd never blow you off.

[sighs]

Well, I was going to tell you that

I tried out for the lead in the play and I got blindsided by Harper.

Yeah, Maggie told me you're playing Lucas's wife or something?

Of course, you already know because you're dating my director.

Who decided to fix my love life that you ruined.

-I wanted that part, Dad. -[groans]

If it was you, you would have found a way to win it,

because that is who you are.

Yeah, but you'd be surprised.

I'm glad you found something you're passionate about, and it's great.

But be careful.

I've given my love to basketball my whole life,

and I don't think it ever loved me back.

I love you more than basketball ever will.

I love you too.

Let's never not talk again.

I know. It was murder on me.

-I hate not talking. -Me too.

-You know how much I love talking anyway. -Uh-huh.

Mmm. I do know that.

You know, when you said that I was only a dad when it was convenient--

-I didn't mean that. -No, you did mean it,

and you're right, I--

I'm trying, sweetie. I'm...

I was hard on Lucas, by the way.

I was blaming him for you changing,

when I guess you're just getting older. Right?

Okay. So, does that mean I can see him?

-In pictures? On Instagram? -Dad.

-Yes. -[chuckles]

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Aren't you gonna tell him?

I'll tell him, but we're having pizza now.

-All right. -We haven't talked in almost a week.

-Yeah, we have so much to catch up on. -I know.

Maggie's coming over later.

Why don't you invite Lucas, and the four of us,

-we'll just hang out-- -[laughs] I don't think so.

-Come on. -Is that your idea? Mm-mmm.

Yeah, what about--

I think I'll see what Lucas is up to.

-All right, whatever. -[chuckles]

Think of how much fun we would have? The four of us.

-You know? -Can you picture that?

-Yes, I can. -Mmm.

I would not like to live inside your mind.

No, she left town.

She and I had words the other day, so...

She didn't leave, like, a note? A message?

You know your aunt.

[music ends]

[Marvyn] There we go.

Love the place. It's so cozy.

Thanks. Well, it's a work in progress.

Not the only one.

-I totally set you up for that, didn't I? -Mm-hmm. [chuckles]

-Cheers. -Thank you.

Mmm. Mmm.

I heard from Harper about something about a statue of you?

Statue of me? No.

Mmm.

Oh, that statue. Yeah, I do have a statue of me.

-[both chuckle] -Come on. Three's a crowd.

-Let's go outside. -Oh, okay.

-Look how nice it is out. -[giggles]

[ringtone] Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over.

-Go ahead, take it. -No, it's--

It's some scout I know. I'll call him back.

Yeah, but you're curious now. So take it.

Okay.

-Randy, what's up? -Are you sitting down?

UCSB has an opening for a head coach.

They wanna talk to you.

-You-- You better not be messing with me. -If you're not interested...

No! I'm-- What do you mean? I'm interested. I'm very interested.

It's just, why are they interested in me?

Well, your name came up at our last meeting.

Everyone was talking about something called "Kalm Korn."

You heard of that?

Yeah, you should check it out. It's super funny. So I'm told.

Mmm. Well, more to come. I'll keep you posted.
