[OLIVE] Previously on Big Shot
Why did Marvyn Korn throw it all away
by throwing that chair?
This video might be the best thing
to happen to Coach.
[KATRINA] Can't forget the most
important part. Your collab fee.
[MOUSE] "Sweatshop
labor? No, thank you".
Hana Kea Swimwear asked me to
model their gear in my videos.
#CancelHanaKea.
Who the hell is Katrina from
Hana Kea Swimwear?
At the end of the semester,
you're transferring.
I haven't been honest with you
guys. My life is not all perfect.
We wanna offer Olive a full ride.
Miss Goodwyn! Meet Emma Korn.
She'll be joining the play.
- She will?
- [EMMA] I will?
- [MARVYN] Boys. Why are they here?
- [EMMA] They're in the play.
Well, I I guess you hated my cooking.
It was disgusting.
Thanks for poisoning me.
You're welcome.
Hey, you wanna know what
I like least about you?
- What girl wouldn't?
- Right?
[CHUCKLES] Well, first,
your personality. The worst.
Serial killer bad, I know.
Second, your sense of humor.
Literally nonexistent.
I don't get it.
Okay, wanna know what
I like least about you?
Yeah, we don't have time for that.
[LAUGHS]
So, what do you wanna do?
I I mean, I don't know.
What do you wanna do?
[THUDS]
- Is that your
- My dad!
Okay, I'm gonna
What are you doing?
Wait, what are you doing?
[STAMMERS] I'm hiding.
[WHISPERS] Why? That
makes you look guilt
Hi, Dad.
Hey, sweetie.
I thought you weren't
coming home till later.
[THUDS]
What's going on here?
[THUDS]
Is someone in that closet?
A boy.
I'm only telling you this
'cause I wanna be
completely honest with you.
Boy.
Sir, um, it was my idea to
hide in the closet, so
Shut up. Who are you?
I'm Lucas Gruzinsky, sir.
Gruzinsky? Louise's brother?
Yeah, we're in the play together.
- I I promise, nothing happened, sir.
- Get out.
- [DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]
- [STAMMERS, SIGHS, GROANS]
- Dad?
- I need a minute, please.
I know I shouldn't have had a boy over
- without telling you, but I am 16.
- Only 16!
- I'm old enough to be dating.
- No, you're not!
Mom said it's healthy.
We had a long talk.
She said it's normal for girls
my age to be physically
- [GROANS] I don't wanna hear that!
- But I Dad
I'm not married to your mom
anymore, but if I were,
I'd divorce her for whatever
you were just gonna say.
You're right. You're not married.
So maybe you should stay
out of my dating life
- and start thinking about your own.
- No.
Don't deflect with me, okay?
I know that trick. I invented it.
You know, Mom's dating.
Good. It's been three years.
- She should
- Four.
Good.
Is it that orthodontist?
I'm not going to discuss
her personal life,
and I'm not gonna
discuss mine. Good night.
So I just wanted to say thank you
for your responses to my last post.
Sharing my truth with you guys was hard.
But all the love made me feel
a thousand times better.
And I so needed that.
Okay, uh, what else? Um
My team's doing pretty well.
La Jolla Preps said some nice
things about us, which is cool.
But we're still out here grinding.
I'll keep you posted.
Did you just say La Jolla Preps Weekly
said some nice things about us?
They did.
What they said was, and I quote,
"The Westbrook Sirens
made it four in a row,
continuing their impressive hot streak.
If they keep this up,
they could find themselves the top
seed in the Division III playoffs".
Yeah, those are some nice things.
No, it's a ton of nice things.
You should be excited.
I am. I'm just trying to keep it real.
This is real. It's a quote.
Hey, let's show Coach the article.
Yeah, at least she'll appreciate it.
Why is Hot Teacher in her car?
Is this actually happening right now?
[DESTINY] Looks like it.
You guys, they can
see you. Stop staring.
I don't think I like "Authentic Olive".
Can we have the fun one back?
[DESTINY] Okay, maybe Holly and
Hot Teacher are just friends.
Please. Look at him.
Yeah, but he's like a hundred
years younger than her.
Maybe they're just friends.
Welcome to the conversation, Mouse.
Just because he's super
hot, and she's Oh!
They're hugging now.
And confirmed. So, are we shipping this?
I mean, I think I am.
They're kinda cute together.
I wonder if they made it to fourth base.
You mean home?
[RHYTHMIC CLAPPING]
[CROWD CHEERS]
- [BUZZER SOUNDS]
- [SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
Did you guys study for
Coach Barrett's test?
I did. I studied for
seven and a half hours.
You mean we studied for
seven and a half hours.
But it only felt like
three and a half with you.
I'll save you a seat.
You and your girlfriend
are stressing me out.
She's not my girlfriend. And
you don't know what stress is.
The colonels will lose their mind
if I don't get into West Point.
"The colonels"?
They're your mom and dad,
not your commanding officers.
Well, I wasn't able to study at all.
My parents were screaming
at each other all night.
I didn't get any sleep.
That's messed up. What
were they arguing about?
Who knows? I can't keep track anymore.
It's been going on for weeks.
[SIGHS] I have to pass this.
You're gonna fail.
[WHISPERING] I hate her.
Look, you got this. You kill it in Bio.
Yeah, when I study. I'm going
to fail this, and I cannot fail.
Okay, okay, calm down.
Don't worry. I have your back.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
[SHUTTER CLICKS]
[CELL PHONE BEEPS]
[CELL PHONE BUZZES]
[SCRIBBLING]
- Miss Barrett?
- I'm kinda busy, Kelsey.
You're just sitting there.
What is it, Kelsey?
Olive and Louise cheated on the test.
That's a very serious accusation.
Well, if you don't believe me,
then compare their tests.
I'm betting they're identical.
Have you considered getting a pet?
Sometimes taking care of something
can bring about feelings of love and
I cannot tell you how aggravating
this damn thing is!
If I have to spend one
hour a week with you,
I don't wanna spend one second more.
Well, it's not exactly a Thai hot
stone massage for me either.
- A what?
- This kinda thing.
- This is why people don't like you.
- Oh, yeah?
You do everything you can to
avoid an actual connection.
Then I'll just take it
and go. Problem solved.
You see, exactly like I was just
saying. You're running away.
I'm not running I'm just
trying to get away from you.
From an actual connection.
- I connect with a lot of people.
- Name five.
- Easy. Emma.
- Daughter.
- My team.
- Job.
- Caren.
- Ex-wife.
- Agent.
- Who you pay.
- That's five.
- No, that's sad.
And it's only four.
Do you know who wasn't on that list?
Someone you're intimate with.
Oh, listen, I'll sit here
once a week with you,
I'll do
But I'm not talking about
intimacy with you.
This is my life, and I'll do
whatever I want with it, okay?
Is that intimate enough for you?
Don't you find it odd
that a highly successful,
arguably handsome man like yourself
has completely shut himself
off from the love of another?
Do you need to see proof, or
are you both gonna admit it?
We need to see the proof, Coach.
Ms. Barrett. I'm not Coach now.
They're exactly the same.
Look, we studied together,
so it makes perfect sense
Okay, it was my fault, Ms. Barrett.
Olive. Louise just admitted it.
I know. [SIGHS]
Look, I didn't study for the test,
and Olive was just helping me out, okay?
Please don't punish
her. I'm really sorry.
Yeah, you're really, really
sorry that you got caught.
I don't wanna hear your excuses.
There is no excuse for cheating.
And you are both gonna receive
the same punishment.
Here's what's gonna happen.
You are both gonna
get zeros on the test,
and you are both going to have lunch
and after-school detention for one week.
- But what about the
- With the game being the only exception.
And if you're lucky, Ms. Thomas
won't have anything else to add.
- You're gonna tell Ms. Thomas?
- [HOLLY] Yeah.
If she calls my parents,
they'll pull me out of
Westbrook for real this time.
Well, then maybe you should've
thought of that before.
I wanted to tell you right away
so no one would accuse me of
favoritism towards my players.
I think this punishment
is far too light.
We've suspended, even expelled,
students for cheating at Westbrook.
Olive and Louise are both A students.
I feel this is the appropriate
amount of punishment.
May I remind you this school
has a zero-tolerance policy,
even for first-time offenders?
Hmm, simmer down, warden.
I'll take it from here. Thank you.
You're very welcome.
No, that's code for you to go.
He's not wrong.
Oh, come on, Sherilyn. I've
done plenty of dumb things.
I've seen you do plenty of dumb things.
First rule of Taco Tuesdays is
we don't talk about Taco Tuesdays.
- Okay.
- All right.
- Now if this happens again, I
- It won't.
You have my word.
I hope so. Do you think this
is due to Korn's influence?
Sherilyn, I am your teacher.
I am your Taco Tuesday buddy.
I'm not your spy.
I'm willing to bet
a pitcher of passion fruit
margaritas will loosen that tongue.
And then I would tell you
the exact same thing.
Coach Korn has been great.
Are you sure you're not just
getting lost in those eyes?
I'm not that shallow.
La Jolla Preps says we're
a lock to go to Division II.
No, they said we're
looking pretty good to go.
Same diff.
[MARVYN] Listen up!
I hear you're feeling pretty
good about yourselves,
about an article that only you read.
La Jolla Preps Weekly, Coach.
They said we're on a hot streak.
Oh, good, that's great.
Now forget you ever read it.
It's all noise. Tune it out. We have
a job to do. Let's go. Warm up!
They called you brilliant.
They did?
All right, come on. Frankensteins.
You better not be serious
about this detention thing.
- They cheated on a test.
- They should be punished. Send them to me.
I'll run 'em so hard
their feet'll bleed,
but we're not missing a practice.
You should be thanking me
that they're only missing
a few practices.
Thanking you? Okay, good,
when they lose tomorrow, I'll thank you.
They could have been kicked
off the team for this!
I made a decision! The right one!
Oh, really? As a teacher or as a coach?
Both. Frankly, you could
learn a lot from teaching.
What, how to split my focus?
That's one of the reasons why
you don't have a team of your own.
Fine. Then I'll leave you
to focus on your team!
What's with Holly?
- She probably needs to get her some Felix.
- [BOTH GIGGLE]
Girls, if you can talk, you're
not working hard enough.
Suicides! Baseline.
Let's go! Go, go, go!
No! My queen.
[SOBBING]
- The queen is dead!
- [GOODWYN] Scene.
Scene!
What are you doing?
I thought my character should be
overwhelmed at the horrific discovery
- of her queen lying on
- Your character?
I'm sorry, did you say your character?
It's It's my character.
Well, yours and Mr. Shakespeare's.
Exactly! Goodwyn, Shakespeare,
but not Schapira!
Here, the playwright's text is sacred.
I just thought once you changed
the title to Beth Macbeth,
everything was up for grabs.
It is not!
Get over here.
[HARPER AND GOODWYN BICKERING]
So, um, what did your
dad say after I left?
Oh, just how much he likes you.
He was pissed. How was
the rest of your night?
My parents got into this huge
fight. It was this whole thing.
Sounds awful. Are you okay?
[GOODWYN] I'm sorry.
Is my little rehearsal
disturbing your conversation?
Sorry, Mrs. Goodwyn.
Miss Goodwyn,
and thanks so much for
pointing out my single status.
Proudly single.
Now, if you're done conversing,
perhaps you'd like to spend a
little time memorizing your lines.
Already have. "Halt, who goes there?"
Think I nailed it.
Ooh.
Are you being fresh with me?
I very much doubt your father
would tolerate this attitude
from the girls on his team.
I bet one strong stare from
those periwinkle eyes of his
would render them speechless.
Back to one!
Did she just
Say your dad has strong,
periwinkle eyes? Yes.
- Do you think that means
- Yes.
[CHUCKLES]
Come in if it's quick.
Aren't you supposed to be in detention?
I just finished.
I wanted to apologize for, you know
Especially after you gave
me that scholarship.
[SHERILYN] Mmm.
So, anyway I'm sorry.
[SHERILYN] Miss Cooper
are you, uh, planning to
play basketball for a living?
What? No. [LAUGHS]
I mean, I like it, but I don't
think I'm that good at it.
- I agree.
- Oh.
So what are your plans?
For?
Life. College.
How is Olive Cooper, who is
not that good at basketball,
going to set herself apart?
What are you good at?
I guess I was good at social media.
Mm-mmm. You still are.
I saw your latest post.
I like this new you. I'd
like to see more of her.
Thanks.
But I'm not sure she's that interesting.
Mostly, we're focused on getting to DII.
Well, there you go. I bet
there are a lot of people
that would love to see that
journey from your point of view.
You want me to post about it?
I don't think a one-minute
post is gon' get it done.
It's just I've never done
anything longer.
Well, why not start now? "The
Road to DII" by Olive Cooper.
Now that's a girl I'd like to meet,
and I bet a lot of colleges would too.
Yeah. You might be right.
Do I smell another day of detention?
No! You're right.
That's what I thought.
You know,
it's a lot more fun being in this
office when you're not in trouble.
Thanks, Ms. Thomas.
Make me proud, Ms. Cooper.
- [SIREN WAILS]
- [POLICE RADIO CHATTER]
What're you That's mine.
You can't take that.
What is going on? Where's Dad?
They're taking everything.
They can't do that. This is our house.
They're not taking everything,
and this is just a temporary
freeze on our bank accounts.
What? Why?
They're charging your father
with embezzlement,
but we've We're taking care of it.
There's nothing for
you guys to worry about.
Yeah, 'cause everything is clearly fine.
That's crazy. Dad would
never do something like that.
You sure about that?
Hey, listen to me.
You can't tell this to anyone.
Okay? This is a family matter.
Cops are carrying half our
house out the front door
It's going to get out.
Then the lawyers will handle
it, but for now, not a word.
Promise me.
- Is it for real?
- I think so.
Hey about yesterday, I
You know, the night before, I'd had
a terrible night, and Emma and
There was this kid in the closet.
And I may have been a little
Know what I mean?
Is there an apology in there somewhere?
- Yes.
- Okay.
You're wrong, you know. You can be both.
Be a teacher and a coach.
- [MARVYN CLEARS THROAT]
- [GOODWYN] Hmm.
Coach Korn.
I don't believe we've formally
met. Margaret Goodwyn.
Nice to meet you, Mrs. Goodwyn.
Miss Goodwyn.
Proudly single. Bare as
a baby's bottom. [LAUGHS]
- Miss Goodwyn.
- Maggie!
Please, my friends call me Maggie.
You know, we share something
in common. Your daughter.
Oh, you're the play lady.
Yeah. Well, we in the biz
refer to it as theater.
I know, fancy. [LAUGHS]
How's she doin'?
She has enormous potential. Glorious!
If only she would focus more on
my and Mr. Shakespeare's words
and less on that Lucas boy.
Ooh, that face.
Come not between the
dragon and his wrath.
[LAUGHS]
Anyway, I gave them a pretty
tough talking-to yesterday.
- I hope you're not cross with me.
- No, no, no.
Any good organization needs
focus, it needs discipline, and
That's exactly what I told them.
I said that if any of the girls
on your team tried any monkey business,
they would find themselves
on the wrong end
of those strong, periwinkle eyes.
- That's right Huh?
- You know what?
You and I are two peas
in a proverbial pod.
I would love to pick your brain
over a couple of dirty martinis
and hear all about those
coaching tactics of yours.
Uh, maybe someday after work.
- Sure, yeah. Maybe.
- How 'bout tonight?
Yeah! Tonight it is.
It'll be fun. Angelini's, seven o'clock.
Uh, I'll make reservations.
See ya then, Coach Korn. [CLICKS TONGUE]
Obviously, I had to tell Ms. Barrett
that Louise and Olive
were cheating on the test.
But why did they only get detention?
They should be expelled.
Because the basketball team
gets away with everything.
I mean, look at them.
They're probably all in on it.
Do you think anyone else knows?
I mean, they're not keeping it a secret.
I mean, they literally
drove up together.
They were hanging all over each other.
Are you sure about this?
Look at 'em. Those two
are definitely hooking up.
We obviously can't
tell anyone, you know.
Wait, who else knows about this?
No one as far as I know, and
you didn't hear it from me.
- Marvyn and Margaret?
- Mm-hmm.
She's a lot though, isn't she?
- He's a lot.
- Yeah, but
I don't know. I just find it hard
to imagine them on a date.
- It's not a date.
- Everyone's saying it is.
Well, then everyone's wrong.
We're just going out for drinks.
Really? Who else is gonna be there?
I don't know.
Yeah, you do. Just the two of you.
It's a date, Dad.
No, it's not, daughter.
Holly and I go out all
the time. We're not dating.
Obviously, because
she's dating Mr. Felix.
Hmm?
You haven't heard? Destiny told
me they saw them making out.
Well, okay, good. Good for her.
Felix? The kid with the
earrings? He's a child.
[SCOFFS] Not touching that.
Look, like it or not, and I don't,
Miss Goodwyn has a crush on
you and your periwinkle eyes,
which was super fun for me to
hear about during play rehearsal.
- It's a date.
- I don't wanna talk about this anymore.
Game in a half hour, and
I'm gonna be home late.
Yeah, from your date.
[MARVYN CLAPS] Destiny,
get right under it.
[DISTORTED AUDIO, ECHOING]
[LILLIAN] They're charging
your father with embezzlement.
You can't tell anybody about
this. This is a family matter.
[LOUISE] Dad would never
do something like that.
[DESTINY] Hey. Hey.
I I bet he just couldn't
- [NORMAL AUDIO]
- Sorry, what?
Your dad's probably
just stuck in traffic.
My aunt's supposed to be coming
from LA, and she's not here either.
- So I'm sure the 5 is just jammed up.
- [MARVYN] Gruzinsky!
- Yeah?
- [MARVYN] You good?
- Meaning?
- Meaning your head's in the clouds,
and you're supposed to
be warming up right now.
- I'm fine.
- Let's go. Get in there.
[BUZZER SOUNDS]
- All right. Let's go. Let's go.
- [REFEREE] Coaches!
- Ten minutes, ten minutes.
- [MARVYN] Here. Give me that.
All right, we'll collapse
on 40 down on the block.
Mouse, don't leave 14
open outside. Got it?
You got it, Coach.
What are you doing?
Chronicling our road to DII.
Well, these team meetings are private.
Put that thing away. Put it away!
You're gonna want that footage when
we run this winning streak to five.
La Jolla Preps Weekly will
have something to say about it.
I want you to listen to me, okay?
This could go both ways.
I don't want you to let the
cheers go to your brain
or the boos go to your heart.
You got it? Just put all that stuff out.
This is our house.
Nobody waltzes in here and
pushes us around in our house.
[DISTORTED AUDIO, ECHOING]
This is our house.
[LUCAS] They're taking
everything. What is going on?
[MARVYN] This is our house.
[LOUISE] Hey. That's mine.
You can't take that.
- [WHISTLE BLOWS]
- [NORMAL AUDIO]
Louise, you got 40.
Get on 40 Come on!
Gruzinsky! Get your head
in the game. Come on!
[DISTORTED, ECHOING] Get
your head in the game!
[EXHALES]
- What's the matter with her?
- I don't know.
[DISTORTED, ECHOING]
[LOUISE] Those are mine!
[LUCAS] They're taking everything.
- [MARVYN] Put all that stuff out.
- [LOUISE] This is so unfair.
I don't understand why
this is happening to me.
- This is our house.
- [CHEERS]
[MARVYN] This is our house.
Nobody waltzes in here and
pushes us around in our house.
- [WHISTLE BLOWS]
- [REFEREE] Foul! Four-zero, two shots.
[HEARTBEAT THUMPING]
- [WHISTLE BLOWS]
- [NORMAL AUDIO] What the
- [PLAYER 40] Are you crazy!
- [MOUSE] Let it go!
- Do you know what I could do to you?
- What? What!
- [MOUSE] What are you doing?
- [REFEREE] Flagrant foul!
- Number 23, you're ejected.
- Come on! Seriously?
- Gruzinsky.
- [REFEREE] Please get your player, Coach.
Get your player.
[MARVYN] Gruzinsky!
- What the hell's the matter with her?
- I got it. I got this.
Hey! What got into you out there?
Me? Forty was all over me.
Thanks for having my back.
[SCOFFS] Are you kidding? I've
done nothing but have your back.
You could have been expelled
for cheating on that test.
I protected you.
By telling Sherilyn?
That's part of my job.
Well, you covered your bases. So
stop pretending to be my friend.
I went out on a limb for you.
- Well, thank God for St. Holly!
- Hey, I get it.
You're going through something.
Well, guess what, so is everybody.
That's called life, and to be honest,
you have a pretty damn good one.
So, whatever this is, get
the hell over it. Look at me!
Nothing gives you the right
to treat people who protect you
and care about you this way.
Okay, you think I don't protect you?
I'm going to protect you
right now, by walking away!
Hey.
You better not ask me if I'm okay.
Fine. I'm your ride home, remember?
[SIGHS] Right.
Yeah.
But I don't wanna go home.
[LOUISE] I wanna tell you.
I just I can't talk about it.
Okay.
No, my mom would kill me.
I had to swear to her
I'd keep my mouth shut.
No worries. I get it.
My dad was arrested.
It's about money stuff,
and it's serious,
and I don't know what's going to happen.
[SIGHS] I can't believe
I just said that out loud.
I can't even imagine.
I'm so sorry.
You can't tell anybody, okay?
I don't know what I would do
if people found out.
It'd be a nightmare.
Who cares what other people think?
I care.
Dylan, my family is
Everyone knows us. Hell, our
name is on the school gym.
But you're not your family
That's not what I'm saying.
[SIGHS]
Everyone would love
to see us humiliated.
Not me. I'd still be here for you.
You just You've no idea
what you're signing up for.
I've been your backup
date to every dance.
I signed up for this a long time ago.
Forty probably deserved it.
[BUZZER SOUNDS]
[MARVYN] Better luck next time, Coach.
Well, we squeaked that one out, huh?
[HOLLY] Eh. Five in
a row is five in a row.
Yeah, but it wouldn't have
been such a nail-biter
- if Gruzinsky would've kept her cool.
- Yeah.
What is the matter with her?
I don't know. She is definitely
going through something.
When is she not?
[SIGHS] I gave her some space.
She needed to cool down. So did I.
Well, why don't you go have a
drink with your new boyfriend?
What?
Yeah, I I heard that
you and Felix were a thing.
Who did you hear that from?
I don't know, everybody.
I mean, Destiny told someone,
that someone told Emma,
then Emma told me. Relax.
I'm not gonna tell anybody.
Well, I mean, not that it's any
of your business or the girls',
but Felix and I are not a thing.
Cool.
I mean, not like you and Goodwyn.
Me an What do you mean?
I I don't know.
I never thought of you as
the theatergoing type, but
- I'm not.
- Then what are you going
to talk about on your date tonight?
It's not a date.
That's not what I heard.
[ROMANTIC JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]
[MAGGIE] Next production
is gonna be Jersey Girls.
[MARVYN] Well, how Wow, that's
Never would've guessed it.
- [MAGGIE] Can you imagine?
- No.
You know, and not to brag, but,
um, the Westbrook Gazette called
my Josephine and the Amazing
Technicolor Dreamcoat a revelation.
- The school paper?
- Mmm, yeah.
And that snarky little sophomore,
Veronica, she can be brutal, so
- [MARVYN CHUCKLES]
- I got off lucky. [LAUGHS]
But I've been babbling
about myself way too long.
Tell me Tell me about you.
Well, I You know,
there's not much to tell.
I've, uh, been a basketball
coach now for 20 years
No, no. Not the coach, the man.
I'm not interested in your text.
Thrill me with your subtext.
I don't have a lot of that. Um
I'm more of, like, a what you see
is what you get kind of person.
Oh, poo!
I bet with a little digging,
I could find an ocean of
emotional undercurrents in you.
- [MARVYN] What are you doing?
- I'm just having a little look-see.
- [GASPS] Oh, no.
- Sorry. What?
It's Well, right here, look.
Um
- This line indicates that
- Uh-huh.
you're capable of having fun.
Well, let's keep it
our little secret then.
[LAUGHS] Okay.
Mmm.
- We should order, right?
- Mmm.
All right. Let's see.
You know what you want?
I certainly do.
Gino!
[SPEAKS ITALIAN]
[SPEAKING ITALIAN]
[SPEAKS ITALIAN]
- [MARVYN] Gino.
- [MAGGIE] All done.
You ordered for me?
Sì.
You like to take control, don't you?
You like that I do, don't ya?
This is a date, isn't it?
Of course it is.
[CHUCKLES]
[UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]
I got, but I wan I just
wanted to be with my dad,
Like, he loved golf, and
I'm there, and it's
There's this old woman, you
know, watching, and I get up
and I tried so hard to, you
know, to make my dad proud.
And I whack the ball so hard and it
When I hit it, it like
- What do you call that?
- You sliced it.
- You play golf?
- No.
I sliced it, and it went
[WHOOSHES] right
I mean, it missed this old
woman's temple by an inch.
- Oh, my God. That's horrible.
- You believe that?
I know. I could've killed her.
I mean, that's not funny,
but it's kinda funny now.
- Yeah.
- I mean, looking back.
I'm so glad you didn't.
It would've been like,
"Oh, hey, there's Marvyn Korn
the basketball coach.
Didn't he kill an old woman at
the golf course some years ago?"
- I'm so glad that didn't happen.
- Yeah.
Think about it. I mean, just, like,
one inch can make all the difference.
Hmm.
- Oh, you
- You know.
I didn't mean it like that.
- [LAUGHING] You're blushing.
- Well, because I didn't
Oh, my God. No.
Who would've thought the
fearsome Marvyn Korn
could be embarrassed?
- [LAUGHS]
- [MARVYN CHUCKLES]
You have a good laugh.
Well, you're a very good storyteller.
- I, uh, got it from my dad.
- Mmm.
I haven't told that
story in a long time.
You thought you had no
emotional undercurrents.
[CHUCKLES] See, this is
the guy I was talking about.
I knew he was in there somewhere.
Really?
[MAGGIE] Really.
[WHISTLING]
- Hi.
- What is that?
Leftovers, in case you're hungry.
[EMMA] Oh? So, you two had dinner?
[MARVYN] We had a bite.
Seems like more than a bite if
they put the leftovers in a swan.
It's an Italian thing.
All right, it was a date.
I knew it. And you hated it?
Maggie's not nearly as bad
as you made her out to be.
"Maggie"?
[MARVYN] Yeah.
Oh, no. You had fun, didn't you?
She's interesting.
I mean, yeah, she's a little wacky, but
she took charge, which was refreshing.
Yes, I had fun, okay? I had fun.
We had fun. Is that so terrible?
You're the one who wanted
me to go on a date.
Yes, but not with her.
The whole reason I signed up for
the play is for once not to be
just Marvyn Korn's daughter,
and now that's all
Miss Goodwyn will see.
Okay, I get it. I'm sure
sh I'll talk to Maggie
Would you stop calling her that?
It's just The play was
supposed to be my thing.
I'll tell her I can't see her again.
I'm not saying that, I just
- [MARVYN] Wha
- [EMMA GROANS]
Hey.
Hey.
How's Mom?
Uh, she's upstairs, resting.
Heard you got in a fight at the game.
Pretty sure we're only supposed
to have one criminal per family.
- [LAUGHS SARCASTICALLY]
- [CELL PHONE RINGING]
[LUCAS SCOFFS]
Don't answer it.
Dad, are you okay? Where are you?
I'm fine. I'm at my hotel.
I just had a burger actually.
Room service here is pretty good.
Dad, when are you coming back?
Soon.
Your mom and I just felt it
would be best if I stayed here
a little while longer to
really focus on my defense.
So, in other words, Mom
told you not to come home?
Lucas, shut up.
Anyhow, I didn't call
to talk about that.
How's my little girl? I'm dying
to know about the game.
The game? Really? That
That's why you called? The game?
Stop!
Um, we won, but it wasn't my
best day. I got fouled out.
That's okay. That's bound to
happen if you're playing tight D.
Look, I hate that I missed this one,
but I am gonna be at the next
one, okay? That is a promise.
Promise? Wow, that's worth a lot.
Lucas!
Louise!
Hey, it's okay. You know,
we're all a little stressed.
Yeah, because of you.
[LARRY] Listen, Louise. Hey, look at me.
I would never do anything to hurt
this family. You know that, right?
But you did, Dad.
- You did.
- Can you let him talk?
Why? So we can hear more lies?
- Hey, hey
- [LUCAS] You know what?
You can sit here and listen
to this garbage. I'm out.
[CELL PHONE BUZZING]
[LARRY] Look, this is my lawyer.
Honey, I really gotta take this,
but everything is
going to be fine, okay?
How do you know?
Don't I always take care of things?
Hmm? Don't I always take care of you?
You didn't do this, right? The
things that they say you did.
Right, Dad?
Of course not.
I gotta take this, but
I'll talk to you soon, okay?
I love you. Be good.
Why're we called into Ms. Thomas's
office? Are we in trouble?
Maybe she wants to give
us scholarships like Olive.
No, you're in trouble.
And she's ready for you.
Um, hey, Coach. What are you
So, I owe you girls a thank-you.
See. I knew it was good.
- Carol was wrong.
- If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know
that these two were having
an inappropriate relationship.
Wha How did you We were
the only ones talking about that.
Loudly, apparently. Word got
out and ran right over to me.
I just want to say that, uh, I've
really loved coaching you girls,
and I'm gonna miss you,
and I let you down.
- I mean, we both did. I'm sorry.
- [DESTINY] Wait
- Did you fire them? Both?
- I had to. It's school policy.
Can't you just let them
off with a warning?
Any relationship between two
teachers has to be reported to HR.
They failed to do so,
even after you made it clear
they were having one.
Well, we didn't know for sure.
- So you're just spreading rumors?
- They just seem close, is all.
You're right. We are close.
Felix is my godson.
My mom is Holly's best friend.
She's known me since I was in diapers.
I can tell by the look
on your panicked faces
that I don't have to say anything else.
So I'm going to keep my mouth shut,
and going forward, I
suggest you do the same.
Sorry, Coach.
Sorry, Hot Teach
Mr. Felix. Mr. Felix.
Sherilyn, you might wanna
check your electronic mail.
Something you're not gonna like.
Thank you, Carol.
Well, I think that about covers
it. You're all dismissed.
Diapers? Really?
I'm sorry. I was just trying
to get the point across.
[HOLLY] Hasn't been that long.
Oh, no.
What?
You guys, I can't believe
it. Hot Teacher is single.
If you two got married, Holly
would be your godmother-in-law.
That's skipping a lot of steps, Mouse.
Hey! How did it go with Ms. Thomas?
Turns out, Hot Teacher is
actually Holly's godson.
- She's dating her godson? Ew.
- [DESTINY] Yeah.
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]
- Guys, something's going on.
- [CELL PHONES CHIMING]
- Not something. Everything.
Louise's dad got arrested.
- What?
- That's terrible.
Bigger they are, right?
Take a walk.
Whoa! Terrifying, Mouse. So violent.
Guys, it's everywhere.
- Did you see?
- [MARVYN] Yeah, I'm just seeing it now.
Wow. That's a lot.
[BASKETBALL BOUNCING]
It's more than a lot when it's your dad.
Nice form.
Got a sec?
Working on my foul shots.
I can see that.
Carlsbad won't know what hit 'em.
Come on. Let's talk a sec.
I'm fine, Coach. Really.
Yeah? Well, I'm not.
I just saw the news.
How long have you known?
Couple days.
It got out. Everyone knows now.
They're all gonna be talking about it.
Mm-hmm. Yes, they'll
be talking about it.
But it doesn't mean you have to
listen. It's all just noise, Louise.
This is going to ruin everything.
It's what we'll be known for.
Well, you're gonna be okay.
You have no idea.
Really?
- Sorry.
- It's okay.
- Of course.
- [SIGHS] Yeah.
How did you get through it?
I haven't.
It changes you.
I'll say that. It changes you.
Sometimes change isn't a bad thing.
The silver lining is you
find out who your friends are.
And you are surprised
at how few there are.
But I'm talking about, like
your real friends that
stand by you and protect you.
If you need anything, I'm here.
Thank you, Coach.
[LOUISE] Coach?
Hey, Louise
Um I just wanted
to tell you I'm sorry.
Oh, no. You don't have to
No, I really do.
You were looking out for me.
I did some things and said some things.
You didn't deserve to
be treated like that.
I bet you haven't eaten.
I make really good takeout.
No, no, no. I I can't impose.
Louise it's okay. Come on in.
I know, I know.
I'm the last person you
want to see right now, sir,
but would it be okay
if I talked to Emma?
Just talk.
