Uhh!
Pick up the phone. Come on, answer the phone, Layla.
Aah!
So who you rooting for?
- Between crenshaw and Beverly? - Mm-hmm.
What... can't I root for both teams?
No. No, you gotta pick a side.
You can't make me choose between
my school and my brother
against my dad and my...
Can't even say it.
My boyfriend.
- Mm. - There.
- Mm. - Happy?
Yes.
I just like hearing it out loud.
Does it... does it feel weird to you?
Like, putting a label on it like that?
Now it kinda does.
Ok. Well, that's not what I meant.
It's not us being together.
It's just... I don't know.
There's just been such a crazy build-up with us
that until everyone knows,
it just doesn't seem real.
That's why I called Layla.
I didn't want her hearing about us
from somebody else.
How'd it go?
I will let you know when she calls me back.
Unless that Carrie girl gets the message first
and deletes it.
Geez. I wouldn't put it past her.
Hey, guys. Can I join you?
Um, yeah. Grab a seat.
Actually, I'ma roll out.
I will, uh, call you later. Simone.
Ok, now, what was that?
This is gonna be a huge surprise to you...
But Spencer and I are together.
Like a couple.
Is this supposed to be your surprised face?
Girl, no. It's my
"about damn time" face.
What are you so stressed about?
This is supposed to be the fun part.
Talk to me when you about to call off a marriage.
No, you and Jordan are as strong as ever.
Ok? I'm just... I'm having,
like, a mini freak-out,
and I don't know why and it's...
It's not about Spencer.
I don't want to hurt Layla or Asher.
That ship sailed in Vegas.
And everyone's moving on.
Ain't nobody gonna be shocked.
Even them.
Here it is. The final product.
Why does it say "Coop" so big?
Because when I showed you the prototype a few weeks ago,
you said, "make it say Coop bigger."
Can you make it smaller?
You leave for tour in two days.
This is what the shirt looks like.
It's already printed and packed and I gave it to Andre
since he gonna be handling all the merch for me.
Coop, all you have to do is be great on stage.
Don't worry about this other stuff.
Man, I still can't believe y'all ain't going.
What am I supposed to do in Vegas all by myself?
Hang with Andre.
I'm not hangin' with Andre.
- Would you hang with Andre? - Hell no.
Ok. What about Patience?
She's super tired.
She ain't looking to go to Vegas.
Well, maybe you should let her decide that.
Remember, she just got out of the contract with my dad,
so now might actually be a really good time
to release the original family over everything.
Look, I know you guys have been going with
the 4-3 defense all year.
I'm just saying that's not gonna
work with Spencer James.
Dad, relax.
Ok? Montes, she has us ready.
I'm sure every coach thinks they're ready for Spencer,
right up until he scores his fifth touchdown on them.
Well, I'm not gonna let that happen.
It's the head coach from coastal California.
You gonna answer it?
Hello?
Uh, yeah, yeah, this is Asher.
Give me one second.
Yes. Yes, sir.
Thank you. Yeah.
He offered me a full scholarship.
Yes! Oh! I'm so proud of you, son.
- Hey. - Hey.
Hey, what's up, coach?
What's happening?
So what happened?
Why do you think something happened?
Because the only time you ever show up
out the blue like this is
with either good news or bad news.
That's not true.
He ain't lying, Billy.
I am not that predictable.
So it's not good news or bad news?
Uhh. Fine. It's good news.
Mm-hmm.
- What's this? - Open it.
"Dear Spencer James,
"you have been identified as one of
"the nation's top senior
high school football players."
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
There's more, there's more.
"In recognition of your tremendous season,
"we'd like to extend an offer
for you to play in this year's..."
Say it.
"Platinum all-American game."
- You did it, man. - I did it.
Whoo-hoo-hoo! Aah! Yes!
Aah! My baby's an all-American!
Whoo-hoo! Yes!
All right. Yeah, man.
Thank you.
Aah!
- Yeah. Proud of you. - You did it.
I'm framing this. Yay!
I gotta thank coach Billy baker.
Yeah, without him, none of this would've been possible.
We gonna hit the showers, coach.
Yeah, man. Good practice today.
Hey, what you watching?
Oh, it's Spencer. He's giving this
interview for platinum all-American game.
So that's why he skipped practice today?
No, no, he didn't skip.
I actually gave him permission to take
the day off to do this thing.
Oh, my favorite food?
I gotta go with Mac and cheese.
- Yeah. - Heh heh heh!
Come on, man. Is this dude serious?
- Is there a problem? - You tell me, coach.
We got a state championship game in two days,
and our best player's over here
talking about Mac and cheese, man.
Spencer's head is in the game.
Why don't you worry about you?
all right, bring it in!
Come on, guys, hustle!
Come on in here.
We're gonna do a 40-minute
full-contact scrimmage with first team.
Remember, this is the last full practice
before the biggest game of your lives,
so I need you to bring it.
All right. Get on out there.
Baker.
Coach.
You said first team.
J.j. Is still our starter.
This game is my last chance to
impress college coaches, show them
I'm fine post-injury, all right?
If I don't play, it's all over.
I'm sorry, but I need to put the team
in the best position to win.
With j.J.?
We've had this discussion before.
Respect my decision.
All right, let's go!
Ready... set, go!
Uhh!
Adams! You good?
Yeah, I'm good, coach.
What you doing?
Um, I am studying
for my calculus final.
I have an idea.
You said that your dad
has a house in Tahoe, right?
Yeah.
So, after you finish
all your finals, let's go.
We can get away from everyone here.
Or, um, you could go see your parents.
They don't want to see me.
Actually, they do.
I called them.
You went behind my back?
Carrie, I'm just trying to help,
and they are really worried about you.
They're manipulative liars.
You were the one person
