Student Seduction

Go, go, go!

Head in there!

Where are we going?

-Why in here? -Shortcut, my car is there.

Hey, keep talking, girls, keep talking.

Way to go, Krueger.

Double team, double team.

Nice.

Blue! Blue!

Go, go, go, get it, get it!

Woo!

Krueger, nice, great shot.

Bring it in. Girls, bring it in.

Nicely done!

Good game.

Ah, good job, good job, everyone.

Good job.

All right, attackers, way to work together.

Camille, great thinking out there.

-Annie, hell of a shot. -Thanks, Coach.

All right, great work, everyone.

That's it for today.

Fine. As it stands, I think we have

a really sweet shot at the finals!

-Woo! -Great work, great work.

All right, break, have fun, enjoy the rest of your day.

Elizabeth, Emily.

So, wonderful. If we can be

a little more talkative on the field,

I want to make sure everyone knows...

Gawk much?

Sorry.

He's just so...

-Hot? -Yeah.

We all see it, we all think it.

You're just a little obsessed about it.

Okay, I'll work on that.

Hey, nice play, by the way.

Hey, I've always got your back.

You're growing up so fast.

Mom, you're doing it again.

-What? -Acting weird.

I'm admiring how my little girl has grown

into an amazing young woman.

It's not the weird part.

-What's the weird part? -What comes next.

How I didn't screw this up is beyond me?

That's the weird part.

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

If you don't mind, I have homework to do.

Sure.

Ugh, wow, okay, Dad.

Aren't I your greatest accomplishment?

Come on, Dad. Really?

Gloria?

By the look on your face, not good?

Not good at all.

Miss Brewer said I could take a make-up exam,

but it'd have to be after school

and before the end of the week.

I can't miss practice to take an exam.

Ugh! This blows.

Just talk to Coach.

I'm sure you can miss one practice.

Ahem. Just bat your eyes at him.

Stop!

Oh, and you won't believe who my dad is posting pics with.

-Gloria. -His secretary?

Yup. Gross.

What does your mom think?

I didn't tell her.

I couldn't. She'd lose it even more.

Lose it? Meaning wanting to spend more time

with her daughter?

I just need a serious shift in life.

Like a restart.

You've got it pretty good, Annie.

Everything good in my life comes from my lacrosse.

It's how I got in this school, stay in this school,

and the only reason I have a shot at college.

If it weren't for that, I'd have nothing.

Like my mom.

Ouch.

I'm not trying to be a jerk.

I just don't want to be like her.

-I want to be like... -Party tonight?

Ugh, spoiled rich girls.

It's all money and no class.

I heard Regan got accepted to Harvard.

And Delia is going to Stanford.

I've never seen either of them crack open a single book.

How do they do it?

They're the kind of trouble you don't want in your life.

the type of girls who grow up and become

the Glorias of the world.

Annie, the lacrosse girl, right?

-Right. -I guess all the lacrosse

doesn't leave much room for fashion sense.

Function over style. Nice.

Screw you, Regan.

-And you? -Gertrude.

Yeah, right.

See you later, Gertrude.

Bye, Gertrude.

"Bye, Gertrude."

-Gertrude, she's funny. -Hilarious.

Forget them, seriously.

Come on, Annie, we're gonna be late.

They have a sale going on at the mall.

Perfect.

There he goes again.

I swear, one day we're gonna find him

making out with that thing.

I know, right?

Ah, Miss Krueger.

Hi, Mr. Whitlock.

Hell of a game last week. Well done. Well done.

Well, it's not just me. We have a great team.

Modesty, that's a good quality in a leader.

Off the field, however, it's come to my attention

that your grades aren't what they should be.

I know.

Between practice and homework,

it's just hard for me to keep up.

That's private school for ya.

Lots of expectations, and it doesn't matter

if it's not fair.

Well, perhaps we should speak in my office.

-We have class. -Well, Miss Rodgers will inform

your teacher you're with me.

Why don't you have a seat.

-Nice hula girl. -Thank you.

Got her in Hawaii.

Let's see, Costa Rica.

Jamaica.

Bali.

I even spent some time in Brazil last summer.

Always make sure to bring back trinkets.

Nice.

This is an important meeting, Miss Krueger.

Sorry. I'm nervous.

Hey, Coach.

Annie.

Okay, well, I'll get started.

First of all, Miss Krueger,

we couldn't be happier to have you here at Kingston.

Truly.

You've proved yourself an asset

to the culture of our institution,

particularly on the lacrosse field.

Your passion for the game is only exceeded

by your natural born talent.

Now that being said, unlike many

of our other students here at Kingston

who come from more, well, shall we say affluent families,

your time here is dependent upon a scholarship, right?

An athletic scholarship that's contingent

upon your grade staying above a 3.0.

-Mr. Whitlock... -No, hold on.

Don't interrupt me.

Now since the beginning of the school year,

your grades have been slipping.

In fact, I learned today that your grades

have indeed fallen well below the necessary GPA.

So, effective immediately,

you're suspended from the lacrosse team

until your grades improve.

But we only have four games left in the season.

We're gonna go to the championships.

Well, without you, maybe not.

But, unfortunately, there's no gray area here.

My hands are tied.

Coach...

I'm sorry, Annie.

Your classes come first.

So this is how it has to be until Mr. Whitlock says

it's okay for you to come back.

Okay, so here's what's gonna happen, Annie.

You are gonna pull your grades up

and you're gonna get back on the team

before the season is over.

Keep in mind what a special opportunity

you've been granted with here.

A gift, really.

We took a risk on you.

I took a risk on you.

I understand that you're having some issues at home,

but do not forget why you're here.

Not my natural born talent?

Pull your grades up.

Don't blow this.

I think you should head back to class.

Thank you, Miss Krueger.

Annie...

We'll see you back on the field soon.

You were a little hard on her.

She needs motivation.

We won't make it to the playoffs without her.

Well, then we'll have to make sure

she gets back on the team, won't we?
