Coach Garrett, with national signing day tomorrow,

can we expect any big surprises?

As of now, we intend to sign 19 high school kids

and 3 graduate transfers.

Tell 'em about the kicker, from England.

Ho ho! This kid's got a leg.

And... yes, we might have a few surprises for you.

From the smiles on both of your faces,

it looks like you might improve on a stellar recruiting class

that's currently ranked fourth in the nation.

No comment.

I guess you'll just have to come back tomorrow to find out.

Hey, Coach, I mean, can you...

He really has no clue what's coming.

- I kinda feel bad for him. - Why?

I mean, look. He looks like a little kid the night before Christmas.

Yeah, well, the only present he's getting

is Liv's article ending his career.

Painful.

Not as painful as those players he had injured.

Right.

He deserves to be blindsided.

I just wish Coach Kenny wasn't getting blindsided, too.

He had nothing to do with those bounties, though, so he should be good.

Yeah, but it's still gonna shake things up around here.

- I wish we could tell... - No, Spence, you can't do that, all right?

- You know what Dad and Liv said. - I know, I know.

We can't tell nobody. I just want all this to be over, man.

Me, too.

It's the calm before the storm,

but the storm is coming.

All right, we'll see you all tomorrow. Fly high.

70, 71, 72...

- How long is this video, bro? - Shh.

- It's almost over. - 75, 76, 77!

77 seconds.

Kegstand record.

- World record? - Well, fraternity record,

- local chapter. - What is the world record?

Whoa. Dude, who cares?

Guys, can we at least take a moment

to appreciate my historic accomplishment?

Dude, it's a frat-party kegstand.

- That I'll tell my grand kids about. - Right.

Uh, can I help you guys?

Oh, don't mind them. These are my fraternity brothers.

- They're gonna set up here in the living room. - Set up what?

My frat does an annual Valentine's Day speed-dating event,

and I volunteered to host this year.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Were you gonna ask us? - Well,

I didn't think you'd want to do it since you have a girlfriend.

No, I meant ask us if you could use the beach house.

- Hmm. - Hey, guys? No. Not happening.

Yeah, I gotta agree with Ash on this one, JJ.

Could you just do it anywhere else?

Fine. Whatever.

Guys, sorry. Change of plans.

Can you, uh, get these tables outta here?

- All right. - Yo, I need you two

single guys to step up. Spence,

you and that new girl aren't official yet, right?

- Who, Alicia? - Yeah.

Naw, we just... chillin'.

Cool, 'cause we need dudes.

How 'bout you, J? You in?

- Naw. I'm good. - Really?

- Mm-hmm. - Well, that's strange

'cause I thought you were, like, super-single.

- I am. - Mm-hmm.

Then why would you turn down an opportunity

to meet some hot coeds?

Maybe he just doesn't want to do it, JJ.

Yeah, or maybe...

He's hiding something.

- What's up, J? - Hmm?

Yeah, J.

Uh, wassup?

No, nothin'.

I'll do it. I'll do the speed-dating. I'm in.

All right, he's in.

Man.

JJ knows about us.

I thought you said he was too drunk to remember.

Yeah, well, I don't know.

Guess he cobbled some clues together?

- OK, so he told you he knows we're together? - Not in those words.

- Well, what words did he use, Jordan? - He asked me to participate

in his Valentine's Day speed-dating event.

Why would he ask you to do that if he knows we're a couple?

- Because he's messing with me. - Well,

I mean, w-what are you gonna do?

What do you mean? I have no choice.

I told him I would participate in his stupid speed-dating event.

Hmm.

You know, I mean, it could be fun.

Maybe you'll find, like, a hot Valentine's date.

No, no.

No, no, no, all right?

Because I've already got my hot Valentine's Day date.

Hmm.

Look, the event is in the afternoon, OK,

but don't worry. I am not blowing off our big night.

What big night?

I don't know. I just figured that since

it's our first Valentine's Day together, we would...

- Unless you maybe don't want to hang out. - No, I do. Um...

can we just not make it a big thing?

I just thought we'd, like, watch a movie,

you know, maybe something scary.

Well, it's not Halloween, so...

Whatever. We can watch, like, a cheesy romantic comedy.

You pick one.

- Sure, yeah. - Mm-hmm.

- If that's what you want. - Yeah.

Uh, listen, I gotta run, so, um,

guess I'll see you later?

- OK. - OK.

OK. Yeah.

- Speed-dating? - I'm just helping JJ out.

- How many girls? - I don't know.

What about your girl Alicia?

She ain't my girl, OK? We're just hangin' out.

- Does she know that? - I think so.

What?

What are you doing for her tonight?

Nothin'. I'm fittin' to go to the gym.

It's Valentine's Day.

- So? - So? That girl's probably waiting

by the phone right now, wondering what you gonna surprise her with.

We've been hanging out all of two seconds.

You really think that's what she waitin' on?

Bro, I know.

I mean, she seemed cool with us

keepin' it casual, just hangin' out.

Not today, OK? Today just... it means more.

You gotta make her feel special. You like this girl?

- Sure. - She like you?

- A lot. - Then you gotta go big,

"Pretty Woman" style.

- What style? - "Pretty Woman," the movie?

Yeah, I ain't never seen it.

Bro, go watch it right now, OK? And take notes.

You'll thank me later. I gotta go.

- Where you gotta be? - Got an interview.

- New job? - No.

Law professor at GAU is meeting with some students

about a few open spots to audit his class.

Lookin' like a good idea.

Look at you. Go kill it.

Yes, sir. That's the plan.

Hey, remember what I said.

"Pretty Woman," right?

Treat that girl right. I'm telling you.

What?

Uh, nothing, nothing.

Well, y-you just smiled. There's nothing humorous on this page.

Will you please just let me finish?

Thank you.

OK. Done. Um...

- This is really good, Liv. - It's missing something.

I did not say that.

It... it wasn't a question. I... I'm saying

that it's missing something, you know?

'Cause I still feel like coach Garrett can wiggle

his way outta this, right?

We got two players to go on record

- saying they were involved in the bounties. - Mm-hmm.

But some people will just call them disgruntled former walk-ons.

OK, well, even if that happens,

this article still puts Garrett under scrutiny,

which means he's gonna have to stop the bounty plays 'cause

there are gonna be too many eyes paying attention now.

I want him to lose his job, guaranteed,

so this article, it just... it... it needs more.

- Christel wanted me to turn it in yesterday. - Right.

OK, what about, uh, Garrett's former assistant coaches?

You think he had help with the bounties?

It's worth looking into.

- It's a good idea. - Hey.

- All right. Thanks, Dad. Love you. - OK. Love you, too.

Wait. Be honest.

- OK. - Why did you smile before?

It's called pride, Liv.

My baby girl is a really,

really good writer, and it made me smile.

- I'm gonna get him. - I know.

I know.

Oh, what'd you just watch?

"Pretty Woman."

- I love that movie. - It's not bad.

Yeah, I heard they're gonna remake it with The Rock.

- Really? - Dude's got hella range.

I'm sure he can play a convincing gigolo.

Wait. Which part does he play?

You should be getting ready for the speed-dating.

My bad, bro. I think I'm gonna have to bail on that.

No, no.

See this, bro?

That's your name on the card, table 4.

Means it's too late to bail.

- Can't you just not use that card? - Right!

And what are the girls supposed to do

when they get done with table 3, and suddenly...

There's no table 4?

They can go to table 5.

Nah. Everything's set. See you soon.

Fine. Where you going?

Gotta get my lucky tank top outta my locker.

Of course you do.

No, Coop.

What I do?

It's not what you did. It's what you're about to do.

Look, just act like I'm not here.

What's that in your hand?

Nothin'. It's a checklist.

- There it is. - Look,

today is just a big day, all right?

The judge is gonna decide

if Amina lives with Preach or her grandparents.

So you brought me a list.

Look, I know you got this, all right? But it doesn't hurt

to double-check and make sure everything was filed on time.

I'm just a little nervous, that's all.

Totally understandable, Coop,

but we feel really good about this case.

That's all I wanted to hear, all right?

So I will leave you with this checklist.

Look at it, don't look at it.

Either way, I gotta go. I got an interview.

An interview? Coop, what, are you leaving us?

Oh, no. You're leaving? When?

What with this guy? He wants to throw a party already.

Sorry, bro, no. I'm not leaving.

I'm meeting with a law professor at GAU about auditing his class.

He's got 3 open spots.

- Any advice? - Lie.

Don't lie.

Typically, they want to know about

who you are outside of school, life experiences.

I don't think he wants to hear about the stuff I've done.

You never know. You'd be surprised.

What impressed me the most about Darius

was all of his extracurricular activities.

- Like what? - I did a judicial clerkship

and a month volunteering at a marine conservation program in Bali.

Hmm.

So you hired this guy because he saved some turtles?

Well, when you put it that way...

I gotta go.

There you go. Pivot. Let's go.

And this is where you'll be spending most of your time.

Damn. Oh, this is legit.

It's way bigger than South Crenshaw.

Ah, and Coach Baker said you basically lived at that gym,

so guess this will be your new home.

- Uh-huh. - Hey, but don't worry.

The apartment that we have for you is pretty sweet, too.

I can't wait, man.

Still don't seem real.

Well, you earned it.

Come on. Let's go check out the rest of the campus.

JJ. Surprised to see you here.

- Hmm. Is that a jab? - Depends. Are you here to work out?

- No. - Then yes, it is a jab.

Hilarious.

Just here to pick up my lucky tank top. 'Sup, Jabari?

- You coming to Coastal? - Signing tomorrow morning.

I'll be here for Spring ball.

Sweet, man. Hey, welcome to the family.

- Thanks, man. - Hey, what position you play again?

- Weakside linebacker. - Right.

What, Asher put you up to this?

- Up to what? - It's not a joke, JJ.

So you didn't tell him that his spot's already taken?

Dude, I was a freshman starter this year

as weakside linebacker.

I ain't never been afraid of no competition.

Oh, OK, OK. I see how it is.

Just get ready to be my backup for 3 years, then.

OK, enough.

Go get your stupid lucky tank top and go away, JJ.

A'ight.

- You want to see your future apartment? - Hell yeah.

All right, let's go.

Hey.

So, you are Tamia Cooper.

- Yeah. - I noticed that you didn't submit a résumé.

Did you happen to bring one with you?

Uh, no, I... I didn't.

I didn't think this would be like a... a job interview.

I thought maybe you'd ask me a few questions and I'd answer 'em.

OK. That's fine. Um, so, as you may know,

this class is an introduction to law.

Uh, we study criminal law, civil, constitutional.

I'll even throw in some torts and contracts

to prepare the students for law school.

That sounds dope.

Uh, we have 3 openings this semester.

I'm looking for the best fits, so, um,

why don't you tell me about yourself?

Uh, well, I went to high school at South Crenshaw.

- Great. When did you graduate? - Uh, no, I... I didn't.

I got my G.E.D. to follow my dream.

- And what's your dream? - Well, it was music,

but it's not no more.

- Can I ask why? - Well, I used to rap,

but then I couldn't rap, uh, because I...

- I had an accident. - Sorry to hear that,

but now you have a new dream, of becoming a lawyer.

Yeah, I hope so, or maybe even a judge.

And what happens if you get another new dream next year?

Look, Ms. Cooper,

I'm meeting with over 50 students for these 3 openings.

It's highly competitive.

Many have prestigious internships

and... and volunteer work.

Do you have any extracurricular achievements?

You mean, like judicial clerkships or saving turtles?

No, I don't have any of that.

I just wanted to get in your class,

but it seems like you have better candidates than me,

so maybe you should go with one of them.

I'm sorry I wasted your time.

- ♪ Come with it ♪ - Not a bad answer.

What's your answer?

Up next.

- Aw. - See ya.

Take it easy.

- Hi. - Hi.

Do you believe in love at first sight?

I do now.

I know why you asked me that question.

- It's written on this card. - Ha ha!

You're funny. Want to get out of here?

Do you believe in...

JJ?

Did you write these questions?

Uh, most of 'em. Why?

- Do you believe in ghosts? - Of course.

- You want to hear a secret? - I don't know.

You know that little boy

from that old movie...

- Who can see dead people? - Oh, dear God.

- Yeah. - I wish I could do that.

But you can't...

- Right? - Not yet.

What turns you on?

- Feet. - What about feet?

Everything.

Do you like to cuddle?

Do you like to call or text?

What's the most embarrassing thing

that's ever happened to you?

Do you think soulmates are real?

How good are you at flirting?

I mean, Asher really thinks

that dude can fill my shoes.

What size shoes do you wear?

14. Why?

Nice.

Why didn't he just tell me if he thought I wasn't cutting it?

- Dude, he's been telling you. - Since when?

You can't be that clueless, JJ.

I mean, he's a coach now,

so all he sees is one of his players slacking off.

Oh, you think I'm slacking off?

You spend more time partying than you do in the gym, dude.

Look, what J's trying to tell you...

You're not putting in the effort no more, man.

- You're doing the bare minimum. - So Ash quit on me?

Tsk. Sounds like the other way around.

- OK, what does that mean? - You quit on Ash.

Yeah. I would have to say my hidden talent is...

Wait, so your ex-girlfriend is now your side chick?

- No, it ain't like that. - But you haven't told

the new girl about what happened with your ex.

- No. - That makes your ex a side chick.

♪ You just can't wait another day ♪

I like to take long cuddle naps.

- How long? - This is a match.

- They called this guy The Cuddler in high school. - Dude! Come on!

What was your worst dating experience?

Before today?

What's your type?

Yeah, uh, describe your perfect girl.

Dude, stay out of my speed-dating.

- I'd like to hear the answer. - OK,

uh, sh-she's...

Independent,

smart, gorgeous.

She's amazing.

Yeah, got anyone in mind?

Now, be specific.

Would you just excuse me for one second?

You win, OK? You win.

- I know that you know. - What do I know?

- About me and Layla. - You and Layla?

- Who's Layla? - Shh!

Both of you, OK? Just keep it down.

Wait. Spence doesn't know?

- No. - So I'm, like, the only person who knows?

- And me. - Yes, you and... this girl.

- Kendra. - Kendra, OK?

Just please don't tell anyone.

Dude, I'm a vault, OK?

- Oh, my God. - I am so happy for you guys.

- Mm-hmm. Yeah. - I love Layla.

Was she pissed about this speed date?

- Seriously, who's Layla? - His girlfriend.

No, she's not my girlfriend, OK?

She's not my girlfriend. I mean...

I want her to be, right? But...

but now, we're just a big secret.

I don't know what we are, so...

Well, it's Valentine's Day.

Go find out.

Uh, bye, Kendra.

♪ It looks great on you ♪

- Hey. - Hey.

- So, find anything? - Maybe.

Uh, hey, do you have anything special planned for Mom tonight?

- Why? What's tonight? - Valentine's Day.

Oh, yeah... yeah.

I've actually... I've got something, um,

- pretty big planned. - Oh, yeah?

- Mm-hmm. - What?

It is a surprise.

Dad, you at least need to get her flowers.

- Getting her flowers. - OK.

OK, uh, why don't you tell me about what you found?

So... ... in the last 5 seasons,

11 assistant coaches have left GAU...

- Hmm. - Either fired or they left voluntarily

- to move to other schools. - Yeah. That's actually normal.

I agree, but one coach stood out...

a former assistant who quit 4 days before their season started.

And when I cross-referenced the bounties,

sure enough, they started after he was hired.

So they kept going after he quit?

Yes, and they increased, like, significantly,

so I don't know. Maybe he was keeping Garrett in check?

Then he felt guilty and left the program?

There's only one way to find out.

This could work.

- What's his name? - Eric Braun.

No, it... it ain't him.

- What do you mean, "it ain't him"? - It ain't him.

- You know him. - Yeah.

He's a former teammate and friend,

and he would never do anything like this.

Well, maybe you're right,

- but after I talk to him... - You're not gonna talk to him.

Dad, that's not fair, OK?

You can't stop me. I'm gonna talk to him.

No, you're not.

I will.

OK...

I'll talk to him.

Can you slow it down just a bit?

Hey. Uh, you got a sec?

Uh, kinda busy. Can it wait?

Yeah. Sure. Yeah.

Uh, wait, wait, wait, wait. Um...

Hey, Ava, can you give me a minute?

- Would you give me a minute? Thank you. - Yep.

- Thanks, bro. - Hey. What's up?

Uh, I just, uh, I wanted to talk to you about tonight.

- I thought we talked about this. - Yeah, it just...

- felt unsettled. - OK, uh, well, uh, how was your event?

- Did you find anyone you like? - No.

There was a girl with a pretty intense foot fetish, though.

- Well, you do have good feet. - Right.

Can you, uh, can you take this seriously?

Take what seriously, the fraternity speed-dating event?

No, no, this... Layla, us.

I mean, it sounds like you'd be OK if I had met someone today.

Well, I... I wouldn't have liked it, but,

you know, if you found someone you liked better than me,

I wouldn't want to stand in your way.

OK. Wow.

Can I ask you a question?

Are we the secret or am I the secret?

- Um, Jordan, I have to get back to this. - Right.

OK, but I'll see you tonight?

I don't know, you know? I mean,

I feel like it'd be easier for us to keep our big secret

if we didn't see each other on Valentine's Day.

OK, yeah, if that's what you want.

I'll see you tomorrow, I guess.

- Hey. - Hey.

- You're early. - Early for what?

My big Valentine's Day surprise, so sorry. You can't come in.

OK. So, um, I got your flowers.

Thanks, but I'm actually allergic.

To flowers?

- Oh, my bad. - And I got the chocolates.

- You're not allergic to those, are you? - No.

I also got the giant stuffed bear

and the red dress.

- What is that for? - Oh, it's all part of the surprise.

Wear it tonight.

Maybe, uh, I'll see tonight,

but the flowers are in the trunk if you don't mind taking them back.

And I'm keeping the chocolates.

OK.

Your Honor, as you can see in our trial brief,

Mr. Simms has maintained a job

at South Crenshaw High for just under a year.

We've also included an affidavit from his current boss,

Principal Billy Baker, describing his exemplary performance.

I see you filed this trial brief with the court,

but I'm not seeing the proof of service.

Um...

Here it is, and I can assure you this was served to the petitioners.

I believe you, but did you file it with the court

at least 5 days before today's hearing?

Um...

- No, ma'am. - Dude, what does that mean?

As you know, Counselor, that means I can't consider

any information in this brief,

and the petitioners have made some serious allegations

into Mr. Simms' past.

Yes, Your Honor, but u-under the circumstances...

It was an honest mistake. The brief was served.

I'm sorry, but I have no choice but to grant

the petitioners' request for custody of the child.

- What? - No, no, no.

You can file a change of circumstances,

and we can revisit this matter in 30 days.

- 30 days? - Cardell, I...

Look, that's on me.

- Are they about to take my baby away?! - Please, calm down...

No! Don't tell me to calm down!

Coop, you promised!

Preach, wait up.

Yo, how'd you let this happen?

Look, it... it was Darius who messed up.

Darius don't love Amina like you do.

She's just another case to that fool.

- You were supposed to look out for us. - We'll get Amina back.

When?

A month? Longer?

- Look, I... - I trusted you, Coop.

I'm sorry.

Yep.

- Hey, JJ. - Ah.

- What are you doing there? - Helping Spencer.

Jordan's not here.

I wasn't looking for Jordan.

Right.

Why'd you just wink at me?

Jordan told me about you two.

Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.

See, JJ, when you wink

after saying you won't tell anyone,

it makes me think you will tell someone.

- Who you here to see? - You. I need your help with something.

Help with what? JJ's helping me.

- Um... - Well, uh,

Layla needs me to carry something.

Carry what?

She got...

A new couch.

Why'd you just wink at her?

You know, I came to ask JJ a question.

Yeah, and you interrupted.

- My bad. - Yeah, just...

I gotta get going anyway.

OK.

You know y'all are acting weird, right?

OK.

All right.

Oh.

That was so close. I almost caved.

JJ, all you had to do was be cool and not wink.

I gotta admit, this is gonna be harder than I thought.

I don't know how long I can hold out.

So, what did you need my help with?

Jordan.

Where's he at?

- Coop. - What? What, is he hiding under his desk?

I sent Darius home for the day. He feels terrible.

Oh, no. Should we get him a get-well basket?

He made a mistake.

- Nobody's perfect. - Wait! That's it?!

He makes a life-changing mistake

like that and gets off with "nobody's perfect"?

It's my law firm. I should have double-checked everything.

No, you should have never taken me off the case!

Both you and Darius have the privilege

of making mistakes and just shrugging them off!

- That's not what this is. - It sounds like it!

You get to say, "whoops" and just move on to another case!

I don't get to make those mistakes.

I don't get to say, "whoops."

That's why, had you not pulled me off of that case,

none of this would have happened!

Coop, I know you're upset.

I used to think that my background was a weakness.

I thought that people like Darius were better than me.

- I never thought that. - Yes, you did.

You may have not realized it, but you did.

But it's cool 'cause I know it's not true, all right?

My life prepared me better than any clerkship

or volunteer work ever could.

I just gotta prove everyone wrong.

- I am going to get Amina back... - No,

we are going to get Amina back!

I'm back on this case. That's it.

And I'm bringing lots of checklists.

- Spencer. - Liv.

Hey.

- Wow, those are beautiful. - Thanks.

Thanks...

They're not for you.

I didn't think they were, but, you know,

hearing it out loud is really a kick in the teeth, so thanks.

My bad, my bad. They're for your dad.

They're for your mom from your dad.

- From you? - No. I, uh,

called him and told him I had some available and he claimed 'em.

- Why did you have extra roses? - 'Cause I bought 'em

- and then... - You know, actually, I don't want to hear

- the second half of that sentence. - OK.

- Yep. - OK...

so how are you?

I'm good. You?

I'm good.

Just so you know, you've been on my mind today.

- You know you don't have to say that. - I know.

I know, but you have.

Oh, Spencer.

- Hey. - You're a lifesaver.

- All right. - Look at these. These are gonna be perfect.

Ah.

So this was your big surprise for Mom?

Why are you even back here?

Ah. I was about to go see, uh, Eric Braun.

Well, that's why I'm here. I'm coming with you.

- I should get going. - OK.

- Yup. - Spencer, thank you.

- Yeah, man. - Bye-bye. Ahem.

Bye.

Bye.

OK, you can't come because he's my friend.

- It's my story. - This is so much more than a story.

This is a coach who has affected

the lives and the futures

of young men, and...

hopefully,

because of our history,

he'll open up to me and,

you know, if he did this,

then I promise you, you'll get your story.

But until we know, mm-mmm.

I ain't about to ambush my old friend.

I'm sorry, but you're gonna have to trust me on this.

I'm going alone.

Professor Hill?

Hi, uh, Miss...

- Cooper. Tamia Cooper. We met today. - Yes, yes,

and I was just leaving for the day.

I was hoping we could do the interview again.

- You want a do-over? - Yes, sir.

OK, well, you can make an appointment with me

during my office hours, but, uh, look, I should be honest with you.

I've already narrowed down my choices.

Look, I know I didn't make the cut.

- There's always next semester. - It's just...

you didn't meet me yet,

not the real me.

The person you met today was ashamed of getting her G.E.D.,

but I'm proud of it.

The person you met today thought that all these other candidates

were better than her when they're not.

They ain't perfect.

The thing is is when they were off in Fiji saving turtles,

I was in the street, fighting for my life,

and I almost lost it;

That's why I had to give up on my dream,

- because I got shot. - Hmm.

But I battled back,

and now I... I work at a law firm,

and I'm great at what I do. I know I could go far.

And I wanted to attend your class

to learn how to fight for people like myself,

people that don't get a chance to make mistakes.

Anyways, that's who I am.

I just wanted to introduce myself.

I'll be seeing you next semester.

Miss Cooper?

Oh, yo, Ash. What's up, man?

JJ.

- How was the speed-dating? - It was... it was cool.

Yeah, I'm torn between a cuddler and a foot-fetish girl.

Well, you always make good choices.

Hey, um, uh, do you mean that?

- What? - Well, do you think I make good choices?

- Are we talking about speed-dating? - Uh, n-no.

Then, no, I don't think you make good choices.

Well, uh, you're right.

I don't, and I know what you're doing.

- What am I doing, JJ? - Trying to light a fire under me,

and I'm happy to announce that it worked.

Message received.

Dude, I am way past that.

- I'm gonna work harder. - Really?

That's why I'm here right now.

I thought you were here because Spencer

kicked us all out of the beach house for the night.

I mean, yeah, that, too,

but I'm on my way to work out.

On Valentine's Day? Right.

Believe it when I see it.

- Hey. - Hi.

- You're not wearing the red dress. - No.

- OK. Well, you look great. - Thanks.

- Where are your roommates? - It's just you and me tonight.

OK.

- That's a lot of candles. - Yeah, well, I was...

you know what? Uh, let me set the mood right here.

Hmm.

♪ So lovable, mmm ♪

- ♪ So lovable, whoa, oh ♪ - Well, uh,

you, uh, you like red wine?

- I do. - OK.

But before you open that,

- what is this all about? - What do you mean?

- Why so big today? - It's Valentine's Day.

OK, to be honest, I didn't think we were gonna hang out tonight.

It's fine. It's, um, very sweet.

This is all just a bit too... extra.

Extra.

Coop.

- What about her? - She made me do all this.

- You're blaming your friend? - No, it's on me. I just...

I guess I've been feeling kinda guilty, too.

I did something recently, and I guess all this

is to try and make up for it.

For what?

I slept with my ex-girlfriend.

Is that what all of this cringey

Valentine's Day stuff was about?

Whoa, whoa, it is not that cringey, OK?

All right, it is, but look... I was trippin'.

I was watching "pretty Woman" and I was taking notes and...

- That's what the red dress was about? - Yes.

You really don't care I slept with my ex-girlfriend?

It's no big deal.

I just slept with Rodrigo a couple days ago.

Cool.

OK, it's obvious you're not used to being single often.

Let's just keep having fun.

I have an idea. How about we blow out these candles...

And you turn off the sex music...

And we just watch "Pretty Woman"?

♪ I'll get along... ♪

Come on.

- There he is. - Billy Baker.

Ah, it's a blast from the past.

- Man, how are you? - I'm cool, I'm cool.

- Thank you for, uh... - Yeah?

For having this meeting on such short notice.

Ah, ain't no other plans tonight.

Even on Valentine's Day?

Ah, ha ha!

You forgot, too, huh?

- Uh, Jessica's gonna kill me. - Aw, man.

- You think the flower shops are still open? - Yeah, you'll be fine.

- OK. - How is she and the kids?

Oh, brother, I am living the dream.

Yeah, me, too, me, too.

So what's up, Billy?

So there is an article coming out soon

about Coach Garrett and...

and how he is coaching these kids to intentionally injure

the opposing players.

Well...

Eric, I was, uh, hoping you'd be, uh, a little bit more surprised.

This is, uh...

This is part of my past I really don't feel like revisiting, Billy.

You remember back in New York when we, uh,

we got injured together, then we were...

Rehabbing together?

- Yeah. - And, uh, how long those days were?

We thought we were watching our future just flash before our eyes?

Y'all are doing that to those kids?

I mean, I know you quit and everything, so...

You obviously feel guilty.

I quit because I created a monster in Coach Garrett. You know what?

- It was my idea. - What?

Nothing vicious at first, all right?

We just wanted to knock the wind out of some kids,

ring some bells, just get them to sit a few plays, but Garrett...

he took it to another level,

- so... so I left. - Well, you know, he's still doing it.

Yes, at the bowl game.

Knocked a kid out for the entire season.

First-round pick, dreams,

career up in smoke,

just like ours.

So...

This article,

my daughter wrote it.

We want to take Garrett down.

We want to stop him from hurting these kids,

stop him from... from robbing them of their dreams and...

and having him use them for his advantage.

But, you know...

We can't do this alone.

We need help. W... we cannot do this without you.

Yo. JJ.

It's going down tonight.

- What's going down? - Do you remember that foot-fetish girl

- from the speed-dating... Caleigh? - Oh, yeah.

- She's throwing a flip-flop party. - Oh, no way.

We're headed there now. Let's roll.

Uh, I... I can't.

- I gotta work out. - Seriously, dude?

I promised my friend and coach I'd come to the gym tonight, so...

Technically, you did.

- Solid point. - You got flip-flops?

Always.

Just got a pedicure, too.

All right.

Screw it. I'm in. Hmm? Hmm?

- Let's go. - Ha ha! Let's go.

Hey. Thanks for coming.

I thought you didn't want to hang out tonight.

Mmm, you didn't want to hang out.

- Obviously, I did. - Good.

- Kinda have something else planned. - All right.

Oh, um, just go into the sound booth.

Oh, I'm not singing.

Trust me, I don't want to hear you sing.

Just go sit in the chair.

OK. What am I doing in here?

- No, no... - Do you believe in love at first sight?

No.

OK, do you believe in ghosts?

- Where did you get these questions? - Don't worry about it.

No, I don't believe in ghosts.

Really? I do.

What turns you on?

- JJ? - JJ turns you on?

No, I meant you got these questions from JJ.

Can I ask you a question?

- Hmm? - Is this just a speed date

- or is this a real date? - Well, it depends on your answers.

What turns you on?

Definitely not feet.

OK. Last question, and be honest.

Describe your perfect girl.

You.

What about me?

Everything.

Coming in there.

Jordan, this has never been about hiding our relationship.

OK? It's about protecting how we feel

about each other from the vortex.

I'm in this, and it would have...

It would have killed me if you met someone else today.

My feelings for you are real, OK?

I'm glad you're mine.

- OK. - Mm-hmm.

Does that mean this is our first real date?

Yes.

Happy Valentine's Day.

I can't believe you tried to get me to wear that red dress.

You think I'm some kinda high-priced hooker?

What? No! I told you...

Coop. I'm kidding.

They'd better not remake this movie.

I heard they doing it with The Rock.

- That can't be true. - I'm just telling you what I heard.

Ooh, this is my favorite part.

Ooh!

So who the hell is Rodrigo?

I just...

Man, I can barely lift this thing.

What you got in there?

They told me to pack a lotta clothes.

Does that mean I'm going to be staying with Mema

- and Pepop for a long time? - No,

but I want you to have fun there.

Look, they love you a lot,

and they got that cool swing, right?

- I love you. - I love you, too.

And we'll talk every day.

Put your seatbelt on.

She thinks it's temporary.

It is.

I don't know.

Look, I got into a law class today,

so I'm back on this case, full-time.

I'm gonna fight harder than I ever fought to get her back to you.

- Hey. - Hey.

Oh, wow. Looks like neither of us got much sleep last night.

I know. I was up all night writing, but I finished the article.

- Oh, you found the missing piece. - Yeah.

OK, I made an appointment,

uh, to talk to the A.D.

- right after the press conference. - OK.

We'll let them get through signing day,

and then we'll let GAU know exactly what's been going down

- right under their noses. - All right, and then what?

Oh, then they fire his ass.

He has no idea that this empire of his is about to come crumbling down.

Coach Garrett, welcome to national signing day. Any opening statements?

Thank you for coming.

I know most of you are wondering if we have any surprises today.

And I do have a bit of a surprise announcement

that doesn't involve our recruiting class.

I've been thinking a lot about my future lately,

and I have come to the conclusion that it's time

for me to focus on new challenges,

so, effective immediately,

I have resigned my position as head coach at GAU.

What? Garrett.

What are you talking about?

What is happening?

He found out about my article.
