Condor ball, third and 10

From their own 29-yard line.

down, set, go!

Aye, that third-and-long
Play in the second quarter.

Uh, the one where
I passed to deshawn

And we got a first down?
Spencer: yeah, i was man-to-man

With no safety help. I
Could have scored, bruh.

But we still ended up
Scoring on that drive.

I'm just saying, you usually
Find me on those plays.

This ain't got nothing to do with
Liv's book or me not telling you

About the draft, right?
Jordan: spence, i'm good, ok?

Look, we are 3-0
And kicking ass,

All right? I mean, we
Didn't win our third game

Last season until
What, november?

All right, if you're telling me it's
Nothing personal, then i believe you.

I am just making my
Reads and following

The analytics like
Mac said. Spencer: ah!

Mac's analytics.
Jordan, chuckling: ok.

Look, look, look, look, i know that
You're not crazy about analytics...

- mm-hmm.
- but this is still coach kenny's team.

He's the one who's calling all
The plays; he will make sure

That you get your touches.
i'm glad you so confident.

Success to coach mac,

Can i holla at you for a second?

- yeah, what's up, spence?
- nothing.

Just wanted to check on
You, make sure you good.

Why wouldn't i be?

Seriously? That whole promotion thing
Can't be sitting right with you.

His analytics came
Up big for us.

As long as we're getting these
Wins, that's all that matters.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Cut the crap, ok?

This is me.

That was gutenberg's way
Of putting mac in position

For your job as head
Coach, and you know that.

What are you talking about?

- what do you want me to say, spence?
- i want you

To be honest about how
Unfair and jacked up this is.

- fair?
- yeah.

Business is business, baby.

Ain't no fairness to this,

So you better get used to it.

Look, you wanted to
Announce to the world

That you're declaring
Early, so this is nothing

Compared to what you're gonna
Experience at the next level.

- is that supposed to scare me?
- no.

No, sir, just prepare you.

You'll see what i'm
Talking about when you meet

With those agents tomorrow.
Like i told you before,

Welcome to the
Big leagues, bruh.

You're a commodity now.

Hey.

Hey.

Well, dr. Ladage, how bad is it?

Your blood flow looks good,
Meaning the cardiomyopathy

Is not progressing or
Causing any more damage.

- that's good, right?
- oh, it's great.

Between the specialized
Diet, the monitored workouts

Over the last year, and
Your new meds, your heart's

In the best shape it's
Been in in a long time.

How are your overall
Stress levels?

Fine. Yeah, jaymee
And i finally got a.J.

On a fairly decent schedule
And, i mean, there's no stress

At work or school.
Dr. Lavage: ok, good.

All i can say is just
Keep up the good work,

Keep your stress
Levels to a minimum,

And i will see you in
A couple of months.

- yes, ma'am. Thank you.
- take care.

hey, can you do me A
favor and call my phone?

I cannot find it anywhere,
And i don't want to be late.

Uh, i can do you one better.

It's... It's in your hand.

Right. I won't even tell you

How long i was looking for this.

Ok, let's take a
Second, breathe.

What's with all the first
Day of school energy?

Well, i'm conducting my first
Interview for my dad's book,

And i just want
It to be perfect.

Oh, i think it's gonna
Be great. Who's it with?

- ms. Grace.
- oh.

Why'd you change your "oh"?

- did i?
- yeah.

Well, um...

As an outside observer,

I'm just wondering
If your mom is ok

With ms. Grace being one of
Your first interview subjects,

Given the... The
Complicated history there.

Ok, fair, fair, but,

In my commitment to not making

The same mistakes
As old liv, new liv

Talked to her mom and
Received her blessing.

Tsk. I am so proud of new liv.

Thank you, and my mom knows that i'm
Focusing on my dad's teenage years,

And who better to talk to than
His high school sweetheart?

hmm.

Speaking of sweetheart...

Is jordan still texting
You about wedding bands?

No, he's moved on
To wedding planners.

Oh.

Well, good luck with that.

Yeah.

Yo, do we need all this? I ain't
Trying to feed these people.

I want them in and
out. bro, chill, ok?

It's good etiquette.
and if that's liv,

Tell her you are hatin'
On the sharcoolery board.

It's charcuterie
Board, fool, if you

Can't pronounce it,
We shouldn't have it.

And it ain't liv. Preach wants me
To stop by south crenshaw later,

So the sooner we can wrap
This up, the sooner i can dip.

Bro, it's literally your
First day meeting with agents,

All right? And as annoying
As i know it may be,

This is a crucial part
Of the draft process.

The draft ain't for 7 months.

And that's on me? You're the
One that decided to declare

Early, putting yourself on
The radar of all these agents.

- all right, all right, all right.
- now it's time

To own that choice.
Spencer: all right.

All right.

First things first.
Two type of agents

You need to avoid:
The ones that are just

Super-huge fans that all
They care about is the hype;

Two, the ones that think that
They'd be doing you a favor

By signing with them.
Spencer: aight, bet.

And remember, you are
Not eligible to sign

With any of them
Until you officially,

Officially declare
For the draft, ok?

These meetings are
Just to feel them out.

That's it. Spencer: got it.

Whoo!

It is a pleasure to
Meet you, spencer james.

Now, you will not find a
Bigger spencer james fan

Than the weston randolph agency.

How long we supposed
To let him sleep for?

How do we even know he's alive?

We think spencer james is

A generational talent,
And we want to be a part

Of the spencer...
James... Business!

Spencer: maybe you should check.

No, i'm not checking. I
Don't see dead people,

And i damn sure don't
Touch 'em. You check.

♪ 1, 2, 3! ♪

♪ yeah, this Right
here, this put me ♪

♪ in a good mood ♪ spencer:
Whoo! Coop: welcome back.

Thank you for your time.
♪ whoo whoo whoo whoo ♪

♪ whoo whoo whoo whoo ♪

Nope.

We're not one of these
Run-of-the-mill agencies.

We rep several
First overall picks

And a host of future
Hall-of-famers.

But that doesn't mean
Any of our other clients

Get lost in the shuffle.

As my assistant
Stated, we ensure all

Our clients get proper
Amount of attention.

But the moneymakers
Get the most.

Well, that's just
How capitalism works.

But you don't need to worry about
That if you're an elite player.

"if"? Oh, i definitely am.

Well, the numbers are
Bringing that into question.

There's been a huge
Drop-off in production

From last season to this year,

Especially in the
Last couple of games.

Yeah, well... Uh, we got

A new o.C., so we're still
Finding our rhythm, you know.

Most people won't give it
To you straight, but i will.

You put up huge
Numbers last season,

But that was last
Season, and in football,

You're only as good as
Your last game, spencer.

The fewer touches you get, the
Faster your draft stock plummets.

You'd be smart to sign with our
Agency while there's still interest.

Preach: i appreciate you

Coming down. Spencer:
So what's up?

Yeah, i want you to,
Uh, meet this kid

That i'm mentoring.
His name is deion.

Folks are calling him
The next spencer james.

- heh heh!
- good dude, stays out of trouble, for the most part.

i thought you said he was
the next spencer james.

'cause staying out of trouble
Was not one of my strengths

When i roamed these halls.
Preach: heh heh! Oh, i know.

A few teachers
Still talk about it.

Y'all drove one of
'em to drinking.

"the spencer james
Reign of terror."

- for real?
- look, their words, not mine.

I mean, deion's the next
You on the football field.

He started varsity last
Year as a freshman,

And he's putting up stupid
Numbers. Spencer: ok.

Good kid, ballin' out.
What's the problem?

Seems like the more deion
Is becoming successful

On the football field,
The more he's withdrawn

From his teammates, family, and
Friends, and nobody knows why.

- well, what do you think it is?
- i don't know.

I mean, he shut me out, too.

Could be the pressure
From all the expectations,

College scouts circling around
Like vultures. Spencer: hmm.

I know what that stress is like.

Exactly, so if anybody
Can get through to him,

It's o.G. Spencer james.
Spencer: mm. Ok, ok.

Which teacher was it, huh?

Was it mrs. Samuels?
'cause she already had

A drinking problem way
before I got there.

Her wig was on tilt the
Whole time in homeroom.

I'm tellin' you, bruh.

ok. Jordan: Hey, gorgeous.

- hey, you. Hi.
- hi. Did you get my texts?

I sent you wedding planners to take
A look at. Layla: oh, um, yeah.

I'm sorry. I haven't
Had the chance to look

At them yet. I'm
sorry. oh, all right.

Babe, i love how excited you are

About the wedding and
Stuff... Jordan: mm. Mm-hmm?

- but, uh, we have time.
- babe,

Two years can fly by. Layla:
Yeah, but it doesn't mean

We shouldn't live in the moment.

You're having your
Best season so far.

I want you to focus on
Enjoying that. Jordan: yeah...

I don't know. It's...
It's kinda hard

To do that whenever
The... The flip side

To... To my success is
Spencer's numbers suffering,

And now that mac is
Officially the o.C.,

Spencer's numbers, they
May suffer even more.

Spencer'll make his
Catches, ok? He always does,

But i need you to focus on you.

You're having an amazing
Season. This is the highest

Your completion percentage
Has ever been, and you lead

The conference in
Touchdowns with 12.

Ok, that's a huge credit to mac.

He's the first college coach to
Take a vested interest in you.

Uh... You're keeping
Up with my stats.

Well, i track my artists'
Streaming numbers.

Why shouldn't i keep track
Of my fiancé's stats?

Mm, this is why i love you.

But i still don't know

What to do about spencer.

Ok, how 'bout this?
I will plan something

With one of the wedding coordinators
Later today at the club,

And you come by and we'll meet
Them together. Jordan: oh.

Oh, babe, you don't have to...
You don't have to do all that.

I know. I want to,
For our future.

ok. Ok, ok, ok, mm.

Yo! Where you been?

Cardiologist appointment
Ran a little long.

What is going on here? Why does
It look like the apocalypse?

We just lost our
Qb1 for the season.

- jabari, that's not funny, dude.
- does it look like i'm laughing?

I'm hearing it's
A torn achilles.

oh, see? Grace:
Well, no, we don't.

And this is me and your
Father at junior prom.

Oh, i still cannot believe

There was a time
When he had hair.

Girl, yes, and he used
To tell everybody he put

Juices and berries in
It. Olivia: oh, wow.

ok, ladies, We
cannot stroll down

Billy baker memory lane
Without memorabilia,

Or as i like to call it,
"memora-billy-a!" ha ha ha!

i hope you're ok with me
Inviting denise to the interview;

Besides me, no one
Was a bigger fan...

Or in her case, some
Would say stalker...

Of your father in high school.

listen, the more The
merrier. Denise: ok.

I have got yearbooks from
Freshman year through graduation,

Articles from the school
Paper, toenail clippings,

Uh, the pictures
From our field trips.

Um, i'm sorry. Did... Did
You say toenail clippings?

No... I said

Newspaper clippings. Heh heh!

- yeah. Mm-hmm.
- ok, story time.

Picture it.

Crenshaw, 1992.

What up, big man?

Deion, right?

I'm spencer james.

Ok.

Ah, i see you listening
To that baby keem.

He your favorite rapper?

Heh! Come on, bro. Come
On, come on, come on.

I know your mama taught you
Better manners than that.

- i don't have a favorite rapper.
- ok, well,

I been hearing a lot of
Great things about you,

Even saw some clips of
You ballin' out like

A young marshawn lynch.
He your favorite player?

- i don't have a favorite player.
- cool.

Well, preach been telling
Me a lot of college scouts

Been pulling up on
You at your games.

You got any favorites
You leaning towards?

- i don't have any favorite...
- colleges. Got it.

Got it, got it.

I'll tell you what,

Come by my practice later, i'll
Give you a vip tour of the campus,

Put gau on your radar
And you on theirs.

- i got a game later tonight.
- i'll make it a quick tour,

Get you back in plenty of
Time. Yo, yo. Come on, bruh.

it's just a tour. Humor
me, or you can stay here,

Have preach up your ass about missing
Your mentoring group yesterday.

All right, maybe.

Maybe. Maybe.

all right, gentlemen.

Today, we are removing
The training wheels.

Now, this offense
Requires pristine timing,

Crisp route-running, and...

Wide receivers
Blocking, all right?

Let's get it!

right here, Right
now. Let's go.

Mind if i join you?

I don't see why not.
It's open seating.

Where's your boss at?

Ah, he is tied up...
might join later.

So you came to boo my
Boy at practice, huh?

Well, i'm telling you
Now, he's gonna prove both

Of you wrong out there on
That field today, so...

Buckle up.

coach.

What's up, spence?

Look, i get mac's trying to
Throw in some new wrinkles,

But it feels like a few more
Targets should be coming my way.

Be patient, all right?
Coach mac is just trying

To get everybody
Acclimated. Spencer: ok.

Ok, cool, but i still
Want to feel like

A full participant in this practice
Rather than just a decoy, man.

I hear you, all right?
I'll talk to him.

- aight.
- fine.

Montes just called from the
Hospital. It's official.

Copeland's out for the Season.

Well, means our
Road to defending

The national championship just
Got a hell of a lot harder.

- that's an understatement.
- but we have williams

And sanchez. It's time
For next man up, yeah?

As talented as they are,
They're both freshmen

Who've never competed in
The national spotlight.

Ok, well, we take the
Pressure off of 'em,

Retool the offense and lean
More into the run game.

Great idea for the short term,
But we'll be moving into the teeth

Of our schedule in a few weeks, and
We need a veteran qb on the roster.

Ok, trey, what are
We looking for?

Montes wants somebody who's
Proven, still has eligibility,

And can step into the
Position immediately.

This isn't gonna be easy to find,
Especially this late in the season.

That's why coach is putting
His best guys on it,

Plus you, adams. Now
Let's get to work.

ready? Kenny: yeah, hustle
Out. Come on, come on, come on.

here we go. 21,
watch 21. Mismatch.

Mismatch. Mismatch.
40 is the mike.

Down, set, ready...

come on! Move
Here! Get to him!

Get to him! Get there!

Grab on this.

nice! Jordan: good work.

Good work, 80. Spencer: come on!

Come on, man!

Yo, you think maybe
You can start passing

To me? I'm open every damn play!

Spence, i am running the plays
The way coach is calling 'em, ok?

This is not on me. Spencer: mac
Ain't out on this field, bruh!

We are! Jordan: yeah?

You're not the only player
On the field, spence.

- yeah, but i'm the best.
- the best?

It's funny how your greatness
Depends on me getting you the ball.

hey. Mac: It shouldn't take

This long to run the
Play. Is there a problem?

- no, sir.
- nah, we all good.

As a matter of fact,
If it's all right

With you, coach, i want
To play on defense.

well, i don't have a Problem
with it; we're playing

The best cornerback in the nation
Next week. It'll be a good way

To see if our offense
Is up for the challenge.

yeah, we'll see. Kenny:
all right, let's run it.

Spencer, you're at cornerback.

Wait. Billy realizes that it's 5
To 1 and he's about to get jumped,

So he decides to act
Crazy to scare them.

he started talking to himself And
pretended he was a power ranger.

Olivia, chuckling:
And did they back off?

- hell no!
- now they really wanted

To kick his mighty morphin ass.

Well, what happened?

- this one happened.
- do tell.

Grace: i just simply told
Them that "if you touch billy

Or david, i'm gonna tell your
Mama when i see her at church."

- and it worked?
- i don't care how tough they think they are.

Most boys still
Afraid of their mama.

yes. Grace: And
all of this was

Because billy was
Protecting this kid

Named david from being bullied.

I mean, your dad had
Such an amazing heart,

And he always wanted to help
Anybody that was in pain.

mm-hmm. Denise: and you Stepped
right in to protect your man.

I swear, i never thought anything
Would keep you two apart.

well, i think The affair
was proof of that.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Slow down there,
Lance armstrong.

You gonna run this
Thing through my wall.

listen...

I know things got a little
Ugly at practice earlier today,

And that's on me. My apologies.

But i need you to shake
It off, all right?

shake it off.

- yes, sir. Yes, sir.
- all right.

All right. Just me and you now.

- hmm.
- how you really feeling?

Well, i mean, like coach
Said, i'm shaking it off, but,

I mean, the way spencer was
Trying to come at me wasn't cool.

Well, i think we know
That was way more about me

Than it was about
You. Jordan: oh.

Change can be scary, and not
Everybody's gonna handle it

In the way that we'd Hope.

Just i have enough
Pressure on me as is.

You know, i don't need
Any more from him.

Yeah, well, qb is the most
Demanding position on the field,

And most people who
Haven't played the position

Like me and you won't
Get that. Jordan: hmm.

How about we grab
Burgers or something

Later tonight, and i can
Share my plans on how

We can maximize your gifts?
Jordan: i'm sorry, coach.

Can i rain-check? I've
Actually got plans tonight.

What's more important
Than football?

Well, me and my
Fiancée, we're meeting

With a potential
Wedding planner tonight.

Huh. It's your junior year,
And you're getting married?

Well... Heh! Not
Until graduation,

But, i mean, these places,
They get so busy so fast,

You gotta book 'em way in
Advance. Mac: yeah, understood.

I just hope this wedding planning stuff
Doesn't get in the way of your season.

I'm planning this
Offense around you.

Look, i want you

To be my guy, ok?

Yeah.

Ok.

look, i don't Know what it
was. Something just snapped.

I'll tell you what it
Was, mr. "i'm him."

You let that gordon dude
Get in your head, man.

Can you blame me? His assistant
Was sitting right there.

He was probably sent so he can run back
To gordon and tell him how bad i was.

no. Eric is cool, ok?

He was there 'cause he wanted
To be, not because of his boss.

Either way, gordon
Ain't wrong, ok?

They legit shrinkin' my
Role in the gau offense,

And the lower my numbers go,
The lower my draft stock.

So make the best of the moment
When you do get the ball!

It ain't that easy,
Coop. Nothing is:

My situation at gau, this
Whole agent business,

And i failed with
That deion kid.

I was supposed to be
Setting a good example,

And i screwed that
Up, too. Come on, man.

This beach house done
Finally got you, man.

Since when did you start thinking
Everything was gonna come easy?

That is not what i said, ok? And
Please don't act like i'm the only one

Who switches zip codes. Coop: you're
Right, but let me make it plain

For you, all right? Everything,

Everything that you have
Accomplished has come with some sort

Of combination of
Blood, sweat, and tears.

Things aren't going as
You hoped. I get it, dawg,

But it ain't never stopped
You before, and it damn sure

Shouldn't stop you now that
Your dream is in reach!

ashley, i know it's, like, Crazy
o'clock in london right now,

But i really need you to call
Me back when you get this.

Things just went off the
Rails with spencer's mom,

And now i'm just starting to wonder
If this book was even a good idea.

Just...

Just call me, please? Please.

Starting to get the vibe

The, uh, interview
Didn't go as planned?

My god. No, no.

I... Things were going,
Like, extremely well,

Like, better than i could
Have imagined, and then,

Out of nowhere,
I just shaded her

For having an affair with him.

- whoa.
- like, i just

Blurted it out and...

Hey, hey, liv, don't
Beat yourself up, ok?

You're having a moment.
We all have them.

Just some unresolved feelings

Got triggered, ok?

It's totally normal.

Is it?

When digging up our loved
Ones' past? Absolutely.

Yeah, but now i'm afraid of
What else i might unlock.

I mean, how much of the truth

Do i really want to
Know about my dad?

Yeah, i mean, i had
A similar journey

When i was seeking
Answers about my mom,

And it wasn't all pretty,

Especially the moments
Leading up to her death.

And what made you
Want to keep digging?

I needed to know the truth

About who she was,

For her sake and mine. We owe it

To their legacies to see
Our parents as human beings,

And that includes
The good and the bad.

Judging by the way coach
Trey just stormed past me,

I'm guessing things
Aren't going too well.

We're running out
Of options fast.

yo, who would have
Thought that defending

A national championship
Would be this hard?

Winning a chip is difficult.
Winning back-to-back?

That's almost unheard of, not to
Mention the pressure on montes.

Do you know how many latinx coaches
There are leading d1 programs?

7, and that's out
Of 133 schools.

And montes is the only one to
Win a national championship.

Yo, i never imagined what
That pressure must feel like.

That's why we got to
Figure this out, man,

For montes and for
This team to have

The best shot at making
History, and we will.

How? Look, i don't know

What you been sipping on,
Adams, but it's not like

Qb heisman hopefuls are
Just falling out the sky.

I'm really sorry

For what i said earlier.

You know, looking back, i realized
That when we all found out

About the affair...

I was so worried
About how it was

Impacting everyone
Else... You know,

My parents and
Spencer and jordan...

That i never processed

How it made me feel,

And so those feelings just

Sat there and
Festered over time.

Sometimes there's
No rhyme or reason

For when our
Feelings will hit us.

All we can do is just
Go along for the ride.

And you can't hold yourself
Responsible for that.

Nobody can.

Do you mind if i ask you

A question about the affair?

Now that i've had time
To prepare myself...

No.

Were you and my
Dad still in love?

Hmm.

- is that why it happened?
- hmm.

When we were together
In high school,

Me and billy were really
Good at loving each other,

But he was also good
At helping people deal

With their pain, while
Not dealing with his own.

That's what the
Affair was about.

He wasn't dealing with his pain.

Neither of us was...

And we both sought comfort

In the worst possible way.

It was a mistake.

Hey, can i holla
At you real quick?

Figured you'd be all talked
Out after your practice today.

yeah, that's actually What i
wanted to talk to you about.

The way i handled that
Whole situation was wrong.

Ain't nothing wrong
With loving your sport.

We're supposed to be passionate
About the game, right?

Yeah, well, there's a way to be
Passionate without disrespecting

Your teammates... And
Your coaches and the game.

My behavior was disrespectful
To them and you.

- you ain't disrespect me.
- oh, i did

Because you were my guest,
And i'm supposed to be

Setting a better example for
You and all the other kids

Down here, looking
For a way out.

I failed you, deion,

And i'm sorry for that.

Nobody's ever
Apologized to me before.

Especially an adult.

Yeah, well, i owed
You that much.

All right.

Thank you for hearing me
Out. Have a great game.

Hey.

You think you could stick
Around and watch me play?

Yeah. Yeah, i can do that.

Go get 'em.

Dude, you know you
Don't have to knock.

You still got your key.

Just feels weird
Letting myself in

Now that i don't live
Here anymore. Jordan: mm.

Are you headed somewhere?

Just, uh, layla's, but
It can wait. What's up?

Tough day at work, man. I
Needed to see a friendly face.

But, look, if you
Don't have time,

I get it; i only just
Popped in on you.

Please. Best friend activated.

i am Here. What do you need?

Dude, we lost our
Starting quarterback

For the season... Torn
Achilles. Jordan: yikes.

I am so sorry to hear that. I
Mean, 'cause you guys looked

Like you were about to make
Another run for the playoffs.

Yeah, and it doesn't help
That our crosstown rivals

Have been on a roll of their
Own this season, especially

The past couple games.
Jordan: it's been great.

But what are you gonna do about
Your quarterback problems?

Dude, i don't know.

I have been kicking around
This idea, but it is

So far out of the box
On multiple levels.

Sometimes that's what it takes.

I mean, we had to strip
Our team down to the studs

After coach garrett and wade's
Scandal. Complete rebuild.

We had open tryouts
And everything.

How did you get the powers
That be to sign off on that?

I mean, they didn't buy
In until we sold them

On the idea that everyone
Deserves a second chance.

knock Knock.

You all right? You look like
You was on another planet.

Oh, just gathering my thoughts.

How'd the meetings go today?

You find a... Agent you like?

let's just say

The meetings went and
The search continues.

Mm.

What's up with you?
How'd your interview go

With liv? Grace: let's
Just say it went.

Um, she had some...

Unprocessed feelings
Around the affair

That caught us all off guard.

It was nothing disrespectful,

And she apologized, so it's ok.

Ma, it looks like it's
Still weighing on you.

Talk to me.

While i was, um...

Tryna make liv feel better

About not processing
Her feelings

About the affair...
Spencer: mm-hmm?

I realized...

I never processed mine
Around billy's death.

I'm sorry, ma.

I miss him, spencer.

Hey, hey, hey.

I promise you it's ok.

We all do...

And you don't have to be strong.

Ok? Come here.

no, no, there was No
miscommunication, ok?

I ordered 10 cases
When i called,

I was, uh, billed for
10 cases when i paid.

Yep, i see 10 cases
On the invoice,

And yet, 10 cases
Were not delivered.

Yes, you do that.

- somebody needs a break.
- no,

Somebody does not
Need a break, ok?

These vendors need to get their
Act together. Ryan: uh-huh.

♪ you Bring back the summer ♪

♪ bless me with the rain ♪
come on.

I promise the club won't go under
From one little dance break.

No, no, no, no, no. I don't...
I don't have time for this.

All right. What about this?

♪ i let It be ♪ [both laugh]

Look, gloria estefan warned us.

The rhythm eventually
Gets us all. Layla: mm.

And who am i to refute

The great prophet

Hey! Hey, babe. Heh!

what's up, jordan? We

I'll leave you two alone.

Ok.

Hey!

- so, uh...
- hi, jordan.

- heh!
- mm.

Where is the wedding planner?

Am i early? Are they late?

What's going on? oh, my god.

The wedding planner.

You forgot to make
The appointment.

There's... There's
Just been a lot

Going on today, and the day just

Kinda got away from me,
And it slipped my mind.

I'm really sorry. Jordan: mm.

I'm just really, like,
Overwhelmed with work right now.

Really? Huh. I mean, that's...

That's funny because you
Didn't seem overwhelmed

When you were dancing with ryan.

- that's not fair.
- uh-huh.

Jordan, i know what it
Looks like, but he was...

Just trying to help
Me to relax, so...

Cool. Maybe next time,
He can, i don't know,

Help you follow
Through on promises

And actually care about our
Wedding, but you know what?

Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.

You just get back to
Your busy, busy day, ok?

Y'all still had s-curls
At y'all junior prom?

According to billy, it
Was juices and berries.

oh, billy, billy.

Ahem.

Uh, sorry for dropping
By unannounced.

Mind if i come in?

How'd you know where i...

Coop.

Yeah. Come on. Ahem.

Ma, this is eric.

He works with one of the
Agents i met with today.

It's nice to meet you, ma'am.

- hi.
- hey.

Uh, look, man, i, um,

I just wanted to stop by

And personally apologize
For my boss's behavior.

He said a few things
That were off-base

And don't reflect your
True value. Spencer: no.

No, he just called
Me like he saw it.

I mean, the numbers don't lie. Eric:
But he didn't paint the full picture.

You've already proven
You're an elite player

With the numbers you threw up last
Season. Every nfl general manager

Knows that, so you just... You can't
Let that stuff get to your head.

What, like i did
At practice today?

I'm surprised you came down
Here after witnessing all that.

Well, i got this old basketball
Coach who used to say,

"practice like you play,
And play like you practice."

today, i Witnessed
a passionate player

Who worked his butt off at practice,
Who's willing to put the entire team

On his back in order
To win at all costs.

That is a perfect
Description of spencer.

Been following his trajectory
Since beverly, ma'am.

I also know he's not too keen
On all this business stuff.

- can you blame me?
- not in the least.

so, look, Uh, when
the time comes,

I promise to make sure
My boss comes back around

When you're eligible to sign
'cause... He'd be lucky to have you.

You know, you're the one

Who came to my practice today

And all the way down here
To knock on my mama's door,

Not gordon or any
Of the other agents.

I'm sure he would have
If he had the time. Heh!

No, we both know
That's not true.

You did it,

And you didn't have to,

And there are two things
That really speak to me...

Loyalty and going
The extra mile...

So i have a different idea.

When i'm finally
Eligible to sign

And you get promoted to agent...

I'm signing with you.

You're my guy.

Yeah?

- yeah.
- ok. Thank you.

- i'll see you soon.
- see you soon.

It was nice to meet you.
Grace: nice to meet you, too.

oh! Oh!

Hey, um...

Is montes around?

He'll be back in a minute.

Are you ok, adams?
Asher: not really.

Kinda second-guessing
Myself here.

- what's this all about?
- look, i've been banging my head

Against the wall all day,
Trying to figure out a way

To help this team. Now
That i've possibly come up

With something, it
Just doesn't feel good.

You want to run it by me first?

Yeah, maybe.

Look, this won't be
A popular choice,

But i...

I believe it's worth exploring.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm sorry if i
Created any tension

Between you and jordan.
Layla: mm, no, the tension

Has been bubbling beneath
The surface for a while now.

Well, in that case, um,

I apologize for making
A bad situation worse.

None of it was your fault.

It's mine.

Just, um, at a time

Where i should feel
Excited about all

The things happening in
My life, like the club

And the wedding, just...

Feel numb,

And my poor fiancé has
To deal with somebody

Who's blah and absent-minded

About a day that
Most girls dream of.

Well, we all have those moments
When our bandwidth is running low.

You'll bounce back soon enough.

Mm, no bouncing back from this.

It's from my antidepressants.

Keep me from getting
Too high or too low,

So i'm just stuck
Right in the middle.

I'm kinda... Flatlined.

When my sister was on them, they
Needed to be regulated all the time.

Maybe you just need
To cut back a little.

It's a forever-changing formula.

I thought you had
Wedding-planning duty tonight.

Mm.

That makes two of us.

Hmm.

Well, how about

A celebratory drink
With your new o.C.?

My dad kept his stash
In a desk drawer.

So, coach, um,

The stuff that you
Said earlier about me,

About the new offense...

I'm ready to be your guy.

Heh! Ok?

Yeah.

ok!

Cheers.

Cheers.

♪ i am... ♪

I wouldn't be surprised if
Your mom secretly hates me.

Like, i'll never stop
Saying sorry for that.

she Doesn't hate you, ok?

I promise you, all is forgiven.
Olivia: no, you didn't see

The look on her face.

look, what you did...

Turned out to be
A good thing, ok?

It actually gave her permission
To acknowledge some feelings

She'd been suppressing,
So you good.

Ha ha ha!

Do you think we're good
At loving each other?

Both.

do you?

I think so, yeah.

We always show up
For each other.

We openly communicate.

We genuinely want to
See each other win.

We do.

Plus, we enjoy each
Other's company.

We do.

Why'd you ask?

I don't know. Just
Something your mom said.

Hmm.

Can we promise

That we'll always
Address our pain?

No thinking that we
Have to stuff it away

For the sake of the other?

I'm with that.

Deal.

Man, i missed you today.

I missed you, too.

I can't believe we're
Really 'bout to do this.

Look, montes wants
An experienced qb

Who's proven himself
On the d1 level,

Still has eligibility, can be
A mentor to the young guys,

And can step up in the
Starter position if needed.

I'm still tripping he
Actually signed off on it.

Yeah, me, too,

But he trusts me, so...

clearly...

But can we trust him?

Everybody deserves a
Second chance, even him.

Wade.

i appreciate This,
adams, really.

Let's get to work.

greg, move your head!
