All American

Simone just needs to sign here,

and then the kids can move on with their lives.

I presumed this meeting was

going to be more of a discussion.

It is a discussion,

about how we want the kids to slow down

and take more time with their relationship.

Well, our family took some time,

and after some soul-searching,

we decided that our daughter

will not be a divorcé certainly not at 18 years old.

It's just so déassé

it's an annulment.

Annulment is the same as divorce,

except for the matter of letters, syllables, and legalese.

Robert, do you want to help me out here?

Divorce is a stunning example of unstable priorities,

like your estranged husband being late for this meeting.

If you think that i'm actually gonna stand here

and let you condescend me... All right.

In my own house... all right.

Let's all just... Take a beat.

Man! Coach had us out on that field

for an extra hour of practice today.

An hour, and he ain't even bother to show up?

What the hell is that? You do realize coaches

have their assistants run practice all the time, right?

Bruh, come on now. You know this next game is it.

We win, we make the playoffs.

We don't, that's a wrap on the season

and most of our football careers.

Look, is it weird that coach ain't here? Yeah. It don't matter.

Coach did his job. We been ballin'

like crazy these last few weeks.

This game ain't gonna be no different.

Exactly, and as a matter of fact,

this is our time, baby. All right.

This is our time, this is our season.

Talk to him. Ain't nobody gonna take that

away from us. Now we got this, baby.

Y'all fools better be right.

Ok? You better be. Heh heh!

A'ight, y'all get back to it.

Let's go.

Billy, good to see you.

You ready? Yes.

I think we can all agree,

the kids did something impulsive.

Simone does not indulge impulses,

or suffer fools. Apparently, she does.

Neither of you are helping.

Jordan, Simone,

this is your life.

Marriage isn't something to be taken lightly...

Dad, we know...

If you let me finish,

I was going to ask what you two want.

Do you want to stay married?

Oh, for the love of god, just answer it!

Clearly, whoever it is will not stop until you do.

Hello.

What... Shelby, slow down. I can't understand what you're saying.

Wait... what? Right now?

...obtained a copy of the leaked bodycam footage

from the officer-involved shooting of tamika Pratt.

At this time, we have positively identified

Ms. Pratt, along with the officers, Miller and falls.

We warn you, what you are about to see is graphic

and disturbing in nature.

Wake up, ma'am.

I said wake up! What?

I need you to get out of the car.

I just want to... I'm just trying to sleep.

Come on, I'm not gonna ask again! Let's go!

Oh, my god. Come on!

How the hell did they get the bodycam footage?

I gave it to them.

That footage should have been released

5 months ago, when it happened.

I mean, at least now, there's no way

those cops don't get indicted, right?

I mean, that footage was clear as day.

She was only 21.

I am too young to be feeling this tired.

Words I tell myself every day,

but we can't stop fighting.

I mean, this is our lives we're talking about.

Could you imagine?

What are you boys doing in this neighborhood?

You serious right now? That ain't even necessary.

We've done nothing wrong, man. Hey, chill! Chill, man!

Look, man! Oh! Stop resisting.

Just keep lookin' at me, a'ight?

Just keep lookin' at me.

Spencer? Yeah?

You ok?

Yeah, I'm good.

Ahem.

I, uh, I... I asked if you've heard from Olivia.

I hit her up this morning, but it went straight to voicemail.

Just put out the press release and we'll deal with the rest when I get there.

Because they're accusing us of a cover-up!

Just put it out!

Olivia!

Please tell me I didn't read that text correctly.

Did you release that footage?

Yes.

Do you realize what you just did?

How serious this is?

You have compromised your mother.

- Where the hell have you been? - Sorry, I... I got caught up.

I asked you a question, young lady!

Don't bother. There is nothing

she can say that can fix any of this right now!

I had to do something because the cops

who murdered tamika shouldn't be walking around free.

The video proves that!

I mean, the question is why haven't you indicted them yet, mom?

Did it ever occur to you that there are things

going on here that you don't understand?!

Well, I know an excuse when I hear one.

Hey!

You know what?

You have crossed one line too many,

young lady. You are grounded!

No phone, no podcast, no car!

I don't even want to see you breathing outside this house

unless it's at school! Apologize to your mother.

I can't do that.

Our lives are on the line, dad.

Silence isn't an option anymore.

Ok, when you say "checked out"... girl, I mean "invasion of the body snatchers," like, completely blank stare, Layla.

Blank-stare checked out. Ok, in... in Jordan's defense,

he was sitting at the table with two

of the most formidable, semi-scary moms we know.

I probably would have kept my mouth shut, too.

Yeah, I mean, true, and it's not like my mom was letting

anyone get a word in while she was coming

for Ms. Baker's neck, Layla.

Is it bad that I kinda wish I was a fly on the wall to see this?

Listen, if news about that leaked footage

hadn't imploded everything, girl,

there woulda been wigs and fur coats all up in that pool.

Hmm? I need you to catch up on some

old-school "dynasty," ok? Because diahann carroll

was that girl, ok?

Um, speaking of implosions

and leaked footage, um, how's Olivia?

You haven't called her?

Well, I'm not really sure that a phone call

from me is... heh! What Olivia wants right now.

Yeah, but it might be what she needs, Layla.

Her mom had smoke coming out of everywhere when we left yesterday.

Olivia needs her friends.

Is it just me, or is your mom, like, always here now?

If it's not the community garden, it's the pta.

Think she plannin' on bein' in my limo at prom, too.

Hey, ma.

Hey!

So...

What do you think?

Hmm, colorful, yeah. It's great.

Whatever.

- Good to see you, Ms. Grace. - You, too, kia.

- Spence. - All right.

I don't know, ma.

Feels kind of wrong, focusing on the big game

with all this real-life stuff happenin'.

Ok, first, makin' it to the playoffs,

securing your future and this school future

is real-life stuff, but I get it.

Seeing that tamika Pratt video must have been hard on you.

It was hard for me.

I haven't seen it.

Don't need to. I've lived it.

Come on, ma. Jordan and I almost 'came just like tamika.

But you didn't, and while this war the police is wagin'

against us is really messed up, you can't stop living, son.

You guys fought to play this game on Friday.

You're almost at the playoffs.

You did that, Spencer.

There's no shame in finding joy in that.

Otherwise, those bastards win.

We can fight for justice for tamika and focus on the game on Friday.

They don't have to be mutually exclusive.

gonna ask you a few questions, ok?

What state are we in? Uh, California.

What country are we in?

U.s.a.

What city are we in?

Uh, Beverly Hills.

And what floor are we on?

This must be a conspiracy

to send me to an early grave.

I go back to Florida for a couple of weeks.

I come back to Jordan with a concussion,

his football season is done, and he's married

to that girl, uh, uh, uh, kimone.

Her name is Simone.

Don't care.
