Big Shot (2021) s02e08 Episode Script

Prom!

1
[EMMA] Previously on Big Shot…
[LOUISE] Heard you moved in with Holly.
- Where's my room?
- You are standing in your room.
- I have to sleep on the couch?
- Well, it opens up.
[EMMA] Um, no sweetener.
- [SIGHS]
- Welcome home, Korns.
I need to talk to you both.
Coach, come in here, please?
Both of your basketball seasons
have been postponed indefinitely.
What do you mean canceled?
For now.
I'm working on something else, so…
I think I need to break up with Harper.
I wanted to talk to you about something,
actually.
You're breaking up with me.
[HOLLY] I don't know if you know this,
but Ava and Louise are both dating Nick.
- What?
- [NICK] Hey, how's tonight?
- Yeah, I'm free.
- I'll see you after the game.
What were you and
Nick just talking about?
- What's the matter?
- Ava and Louise realized
they're dating the same boy.
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
Go to hell, loser!
Looks like you missed your shot.
Chicks before Nicks, right?
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
- [HOLLY] Are you okay?
- No.
[SIGHS]
Where do I go from here, Holly?
[ALL GASPING]
[SIGHS]
Morning.
[GRUNTS]
Morning.
Did you sleep all right?
- Yes. I slept in my clothes.
- [HOLLY CHUCKLES]
- Yeah, I slept fine.
- [HOLLY] Good.
- Did you?
- Oh, yeah. I slept great.
- [MARVYN] Good. Good.
- Yeah.
You know, I was thinking, uh,
maybe we should take two cars today.
I was thinking the same.
Let's take separate cars today.
- Oh, good. Yeah.
- Yeah, we'll just drive separate today.
- I'm gonna grab some coffee.
- [HOLLY] Oh.
- Want coffee?
- No, I'm good. Thank you though.
- Where are the cups at now?
- Oh, uh
- That's clean. Yeah.
- Oh.
Oh, yeah. Very good. See?
[CLATTERING]
Mm-hmm. [SIGHS]
Listen, Holly…
Marvyn.
- Should we talk about last night?
- Yeah.
Uh, I think we're both grown-ups. Right?
And we got caught up
in an emotional moment,
and we both did something that we never
would've done if we
were thinking clearly.
- Right.
- [HOLLY] Right?
Yeah.
Absolutely. I wouldn't
We don't need to make
a big deal out of it.
No. No. No, we shouldn't.
You're right. No.
Let's just, uh [SIGHS]
Let's just forget it even happened.
Yeah, exactly.
I just wanna say, though,
that thing that we did,
that we wouldn't have done
if we were thinking clearly,
you did it first. [SIGHS]
Wow. Okay.
[MARVYN] You kissed me first. I mean
Yeah, I felt you were in
a vulnerable place, Marvyn.
Oh, really? That's
Is that what you're telling yourself?
That you kissed me
'cause I was in a vulnerable place?
- Yeah.
- I don't think so.
I think you kissed me
'cause you're attracted to me.
Oh, no. I kissed you
because I felt sorry for you.
You felt sorry for me? I've been kissed
a lot of times in my life.
- Have you?
- Yes, I have.
And that was not
a "I feel sorry for you" kiss. No.
Oh, no, it was. It was a pity kiss.
- Pity kiss?
- Uh-huh.
Well, so was mine.
Mine was a pity kiss too.
Because I didn't want you to be
embarrassed if I didn't kiss you back.
- How embarrassing would that be?
- No, that's so nice of you.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Cool. Well, then I guess
we never need to talk about this again.
- Talk about what?
- Exactly.
Fine.
You don't think anyone…
- Saw us?
- Yeah.
- No. No.
- Okay. Good.
They were caught up in the game…
- And there was confetti.
- …and it was chaos.
No, I don't I don't
think anyone saw us.
Do you?
No.
[STUDENTS CHATTERING]
Literally everyone saw.
They're clearly in love.
He lectures me on distractions. And then
he makes out with Holly at center court.
- It's unreal.
- Okay, we're so shipping this.
Oh, Coach and Holly? I'm sorry. No way.
Is it even allowed?
Mouse, there has never been a rule
that can prevent true love.
- [DESTINY] Mmm.
- Yeah.
[MOUSE SIGHS]
[AVA] Don't bother bringing one
unless you have enough for us all.
And make it oat milk
if you know what's good for you.
[SAMANTHA] Wow, that was so cool.
So, how many promposals
are you up to now?
[SIGHS] Not a ton.
Probably just north of 15.
I should start considering one of them.
I'm just really enjoying the swag.
How about you?
Uh, decent amount. Although,
none of them excite me too much.
Totally.
Don't worry. I'm pretty sure
you'll get a promposal soon too.
- Probably the most exciting one yet.
- [CHUCKLES]
As the mantra my therapist taught me
as a coping device goes,
"I trust my journey."
Oh! [CHUCKLES]
- [CHUCKLES]
- [STUDENT] It's another invite.
[SAMANTHA SIGHS]
I trust my journey. [SIGHS]
[RHYTHMIC CLAPPING]
[CROWD CHEERS]
[BUZZER SOUNDS]
I don't even know where to begin.
[STUDENTS CHATTERING]
Well, you could start by congratulating
me on our big win. I mean…
No?
You two crossed HR lines
and kissed in front of all my students,
staff and their families.
- Can I just say, I
- Not yet.
Interoffice romances of any kind
are strictly prohibited
unless they are disclosed to HR.
I am HR.
Now you may "just say." Is there
something you'd like to disclose?
- No.
- No.
No. [STAMMERS]
We both agreed that it never happened.
- [MARVYN] Right.
- Oh!
Well, that is so reassuring, but I'm
sure you understand that, as your boss,
I don't have the luxury of living in
"it never happened" land.
So I hope you two are being
very honest with me.
- Yeah.
- Yes.
Look, this never would have happened if
we were thinking clearly. Right, Holly?
Right, Marvyn.
Well, I hesitate to even remind you
that you both signed up to be
prom chaperones this Saturday night.
- Absolutely. I'm happy to do it.
- What?
Thank you. Now for your official slap
on the wrist, let's get Carol in here
to walk you through that four-hour
sexual harassment presentation.
Shall we begin?
[STUDENTS CHATTERING]
If there's good food,
it'll make me feel better. Always does.
[POP SONG PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]
Is that Destiny?
- Oh, my God.
- Oh my gosh! That's so sweet.
[LAUGHS]
- [STUDENT 1] It's amazing.
- [STUDENT 2] That's so cute.
- [STUDENT 3] He worked so hard on this.
- [STUDENT 4] I know.
- [STUDENT 5] Dang!
- [STUDENTS] Aw!
- [STUDENT 6] Yeah, for real. Nice job.
- [APPLAUSE, CHEERING]
[LOUISE] That was incredible.
Okay. Well, maybe you'll get
the second most exciting.
Well, I [SIGHS]
I can't wait for that.
- Dennis, hi. Um
- [INHALER HISSES]
It's me, Samantha from the first grade.
I was just wondering
if you maybe wanted to ask me to prom.
Oh. Sorry, Samantha. I'm actually going
with my girlfriend, Margarida.
She's from Brazil.
Oh. [CHUCKLES]
[SIGHS]
I trust my journey. [SIGHS]
I I trust my journey.
[BOTH] Oh!
Good luck. [CHUCKLES]
[HOLLY CHUCKLING] Wow.
Hey! Listen, I wanna reassure you
about that HR situation.
There is nothing going on
with me and Marvyn Korn.
Nothing?
Nothing.
- Coffee?
- Mm-hmm.
- [STUDENTS CHATTERING]
- [COFFEE POURING]
- However
- I knew it.
No. Actually, you don't.
- Mark texted me.
- Hot Mark?
- Please don't call him that.
- Okay.
So Hot Mark wants to talk?
Yeah. But I mean [SCOFFS] come on.
He put me through
hell during the divorce.
He's the last person I wanna talk to.
So you're gonna ignore him.
Well, that sounds like a good plan.
That is so easy for you.
You have the perfect marriage.
Hmm. Nothing is perfect,
and everything takes work.
Is everything okay?
It will be.
- Do you wanna talk about it?
- Mm-mmm.
- But you want me to talk to Hot Mark?
- Mm-hmm.
And there are worse things you can do
than focus on someone
other than Marvyn Korn.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
Hey, Mom.
Oh, hi, sweetie. Come sit down.
Well, actually, I was thinking
that we could go shopping.
[CHUCKLES]
Wait. Why are you looking
at rental houses in Miami?
[CHUCKLES]
Baby, we won your volleyball appeal.
[CHUCKLES] Wait. What
What does that mean?
Well, it means you're back on the tour.
Of course, you'll need to condition
after how out of shape
Coach Korn left you.
So we'll start in Florida
for a month or so of training camp.
The flight leaves 5:00 a.m.
on Sunday morning.
Sunday morning? What? I can't
even finish the rest of the school year?
Well, with basketball season canceled,
what's the point?
I mean, just get you a tutor.
Uh [STAMMERS]
What about prom? It's on Saturday night.
I mean, can't we take at least, like,
a later flight on Sunday?
You care about prom? Since when?
Uh, well… [CHUCKLES]
Sweetie, you've been begging me to find
a solution for this since we got here.
[SIGHS]
Well Well, yeah. That was, like,
at the beginning of the school year.
- Okay, but I found it. [CHUCKLES]
- [CHUCKLES]
So now you can leave
and go back to being a star.
- You should be thanking me.
- [CHUCKLES, SIGHS]
Thanks.
[TYPING]
- [CHUCKLES]
- [SIGHS]
Wow, Dad. That actually smells good.
Yeah, because I'm actually a good cook.
Okay.
- Here you go.
- Aren't we waiting for Holly?
No, she's working late tonight.
Oh.
Working late. Sure.
Why do you say it like that?
Think she's avoiding me?
[CHUCKLES] Not at all.
Why would she avoid you after you kissed
in front of the entire school?
First of all, we didn't kiss
in front of the entire school, okay?
And we're adults.
We don't play those games.
Sure you don't.
Although I think
Jackson might actually be avoiding me.
Really? That's too bad.
[EMMA SIGHS]
Don't gloat.
I'm sorry. I won't gloat.
- Tell me what's going on with him.
- [SIGHS]
Well, he hasn't asked me to prom yet.
And that's, like, a really bad sign.
Prom is just days away.
Maybe he's just trying
to get it right, sweetie.
[SIGHS] Maybe he's just over me.
Well, if that's the case,
then he's an idiot.
[CHUCKLES]
Let me check on these.
Check my
Will you check my timer on there
and see how much more time I have
for the brussels sprouts?
Hey, Dad. Who's Drew Myers?
Drew Myers?
He's the regional commissioner
for girls basketball. Why?
Says he needs to
speak to you right away.
Huh.
- [CHATTERING]
- [POP SONG PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
[HOLLY CHUCKLES]
- Holly. Hi.
- Hi.
- Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
- [CHUCKLES]
Thanks for meeting me.
Of course. You You look great.
[CHUCKLES]
So do you.
Thank you.
[SIGHS]
I, uh, ordered us some wine.
Hope it's okay.
Yeah. Wow. It's expensive.
- Trying to butter me up already?
- [CHUCKLES]
Okay, let's cut to the chase.
What are we doing here, Mark?
- I wanted to see you.
- And?
Can I ask, are you seeing anyone?
No.
[CHUCKLES] What do you want, Mark?
- I want you to give me another chance.
- [CHUCKLING] Oh.
Just think about it. That's all.
Holly, I still love you.
I need you to know that.
What is it about me
that turns off prom dates? I exude prom.
Wait. Am I too approachable?
No, nothing is wrong with you.
Says the unapproachable girl
who got multiple offers to prom.
Okay, look, I actually have an idea that
I think will solve everyone's problems.
What if me, you,
Mouse and Ava all go together?
Like as a group thing? I love it.
Yeah, exactly.
And if-if Harper's there,
we can distract you from her.
Ava could keep milking gifts
all the way up to prom day.
- Cruelty with benefits.
- And I get to get ready with you girls.
And I'd look like a badass
who doesn't need a man.
Louise, you just promposed.
I love it. Thank you.
But are you sure you don't wanna go
with any of the boys who asked you?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure.
[CHATTERING]
Ava, what do you think?
Love that for you guys,
but I'm not going to prom.
- What? Why?
- What?
I'm leaving the next morning
for training camp. Back on the tour.
Finally breaking out of this prison.
What? So you're
You're leaving Westbrook?
Can't you just finish the school year?
Don't you wanna finish the school year?
With us?
[SIGHS] Look, guys,
this was always the plan.
To get back on the tour.
Did you think I was gonna live
this lame life forever?
Just thought you might at least miss us.
[SCOFFS]
Way to be happy for me.
- Guess what? The season's back on.
- [SHERILYN] Mmm? Oh?
[MARVYN] I talked to that district guy.
He said it's gonna be eight schools,
win-or-go-home tournament
right here at Westbrook.
Practically a sprint
to the title game on ESPN.
This is gonna be great.
I haven't told the girls yet,
but this is gonna change their lives.
Hmm. Sounds very exciting.
What's the matter?
Ava Navarro is withdrawing from school
effective Monday.
- What?
- She got reinstated to volleyball,
- and her mother called this morning.
- You got to be kidding me.
What did I tell you about
getting attached to these kids?
You told me to get
attached to these kids.
I didn't say anything
about the mouthy volleyball one.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
[STUDENTS CHATTERING]
What's going on?
[STUDENT] Check it out.
[LLAMA BLEATS]
[EMMA LAUGHS]
Jackson. Oh, my God.
Well? Don't leave us hanging.
[CHUCKLES]
Of course I'll go to prom with you.
- Yeah?
- Yes.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Jackson,
I can't believe that you did this.
- Yeah.
- I was starting to think
that maybe you didn't want
to go to prom with me at all.
What? No. Of course I wanted to.
I just I wasn't sure
if your dad was gonna let you.
But then Fergus here, my boy, told me
to just be a man, take a chance. So…
My dad knows that
I'm dying to go to prom.
It's really not an issue, like, at all.
That's great. Awesome.
Actually, um,
if he's starting to chill on the rules,
my brother and a few of his friends are
going to this after-party in Hollywood.
Think you'd wanna go to that too?
Uh
Yeah. I Definitely.
- Yeah?
- Yes.
- [LLAMA GRUMBLES]
- [CHUCKLES]
- Now I got to get him home. Somehow.
- [CHUCKLES]
I can't believe she was that cold.
Even for Ava.
I thought she'd grown to like us.
But I guess maybe not.
[SIGHS]
Oh. It's Ava's.
Just leave it like she's leaving us.
[CHATTERING]
- What are you doing?
- [SIGHS] I probably shouldn't open it.
Oops.
[GASPS]
You guys, she really did like us.
- Oh, my gosh.
- Aw.
Damn. Talk about some mixed messages.
[JULIE ON PHONE]
I didn't expect to hear from you.
You didn't think I'd
reach out when you're
about to take away my best defender?
Season's over, Coach.
[MARVYN] Yeah, well,
what if I told you season is not over?
Well, I'd say good luck, but Ava
and I will be on South Beach training.
Well, it's a winner-take-all tournament,
okay?
Listen, I need her. Her team needs her.
You and I both understood
that this was temporary.
[MARVYN] I know, but look,
I'm not one to give parenting advice,
but I-I really think
you're robbing your child here
of a of an incredible opportunity.
All we have to do is win
three in a row and then we're champs.
Nobody's done that
the first year of DII.
Well, you will just have to make history
without her.
- Goodbye, Coach Korn.
- Let me [SIGHS]
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Dad, Jackson asked me.
It was hands down the best promposal
Westbrook has ever seen.
- Yay!
- [CHUCKLES]
Um, so there's one more thing
that I need to ask you.
After prom, is it okay
if I go to an after-party at Louise's?
An after-party? Unsupervised after-party
at a condo? I don't think so.
Come on, Dad. It will be girls only,
and I will be home by 1:00 a.m.
I promise.
Please, please, please?
Midnight.
Thanks, Dad.
[POP MUSIC PLAYING]
[ALL GIGGLING, CHATTERING]
- Oh, it's good.
- Yeah.
Okay, in all seriousness,
I don't think anyone has ever looked
as good as we look tonight.
I had to say it. It had to be said.
- Yeah, you're right.
- Can't stop staring at myself.
How is that different
from any other day?
Do you ever wonder whether
we are too good for Jackson and Trevor?
- All the time. Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
- Hmm.
[SHUTTER CLICKING]
Okay, stop. Are we really
not gonna say anything to Ava?
Okay. There's obviously more
behind her little freak-out,
but she doesn't wanna talk about it,
and we can't force her.
So, accept it.
How can I?
Didn't she once ask, and I quote,
"What's the point of this place?"
Well, ladies,
the point of this place is prom.
We really gonna let her miss it?
Well, she also said, she can't,
and I quote,
"live this lame life forever."
But she didn't mean that.
We all saw the necklaces.
That's true. Jewelry doesn't lie.
It sure doesn't. So come on.
We have to think of something.
Well, me and Emma have to go meet up
with our dates,
but we support this,
and we support you guys.
We shall just simply support you from
afar whilst taking
photos with our dudes.
Don't be jealous.
- That felt pointed.
- [EMMA] Good luck!
[CHUCKLES]
- Are you sure you wanna do this?
- Absolutely.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Maybe it was easier for Ava
to leave angry rather than sad.
But if this past year
has taught me anything,
it's that you don't grow
by taking the easy way out.
Great. It's exactly what I wanted
for my prom night.
Emotional growth.
- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
- [DOOR LOCK CLICKS]
We know your mom will never let you go
to prom, so we have a solution.
We're breaking you out.
You guys, this is literally insane.
Yeah, it is.
Okay, well, thanks for stopping by,
but I need to pack.
Have fun tonight, okay?
But we can't. Not without you.
Oh, come on.
We're serious.
And we know that your time at Westbrook
has meant more
than you're wanting us to think.
And we couldn't possibly let you leave
without a proper send-off.
So, before you go,
we just have one question.
[CHUCKLES]
Before you answer,
please consider that a few months ago,
I would've gladly watched you
get eaten by a shark.
And now you're begging me
to be your prom date.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Aw, girls.
So, what do you say,
Ava? Sirens on three?
Ugh. Okay, fine.
[SQUEALS]
But give me a minute.
If I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna need
to do this the right way.
I have got to step up my caftan game
for Miami.
Now, tell me the truth, do you think
this leopard print is too aggressive?
What's going on?
Haven't I done everything
you've ever asked of me?
Every early training, every weird diet,
every sacrifice of my personal time,
or hope for a normal life
in pursuit of going pro?
I thought that's what you wanted.
No, it is. But that's not all I want.
I want a night for
myself with my friends.
I wanna go to prom.
Really?
I didn't think any of that
mattered to you.
Maybe it's because I never knew
what I was missing out on.
Oh.
And that's my fault?
Uh, no, it's [SIGHS]
Look,
I know you sacrificed everything for me.
But this last year has shown me that
there's more to life
than just volleyball.
And I'm still so excited
to get back on tour. I promise.
But for one night
to just be a regular high-school kid,
that sounds pretty cool too.
You look beautiful.
I never went to prom. [CHUCKLES]
Come on. You know you wanna come.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Do you know
if Coach Korn is gonna be there?
[RINGTONE: JOHNNY MOST]
Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over.
Coach, my man. How are you feeling?
Still strong enough
to kick your ass, Korn.
[CHUCKLES]
I was wondering if you had any plans
to be in the Phoenix area anytime soon?
Oh, you having one of those camps
you want me to speak at? I'm there.
Well, I need real
coaches for that stuff.
I just thought
we'd get a steak and a beer.
You got it.
You name it, and I'll be there.
How's next week?
Well, my season's gone a little long.
So, as soon as it's done,
I'm gonna hop on the first plane,
and I'll see you then, huh?
That's great.
Just let me know when you're free.
You got it. Thanks for calling, Coach.
All right.
[MEDICAL EQUIPMENT BEEPING]
Wow.
Thank you.
Who was on the phone?
Coach.
Marvyn, you know a thousand coaches.
No, when I say Coach, I mean, this guy,
he's like a father figure to me.
He's the reason why I became a coach.
He's a mentor to me. Just a great guy.
- Aw. That's really sweet.
- [MARVYN] Hmm.
- I have to get my phone.
- Sorry.
I mean you you really look beautiful.
Thank you. [CHUCKLES]
You look beautiful too.
Or whatever version of beautiful you
Beautiful works.
Yeah.
- Waiting for someone?
- Oh, my God!
- Get right in here, you!
- [LOUISE] Oh, my…
Whoa!
I was worried you wouldn't have anything
to wear, but wowza.
Hey, if this is good
enough for the ESPYS,
it's good enough for the Westbrook prom.
[GROANS] You know what I'm gonna miss
most about you? Your name-dropping.
Just trying to add a little glamour
to your life, Gruzinsky.
[CHUCKLING] Okay.
Speaking of which, here you go.
Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
And here you go.
Thank you.
- Oh, my gosh. It's so cute.
- [MOUSE] This is so cute.
Thank you.
Yellow gold and not platinum?
Uh
I'm just kidding. I love it. Thank you.
[CHUCKLING]
I'm really gonna miss you guys.
So we ready to hit the road or what?
- Yes.
- Let's go!

Who knew being prom police
and chasing around
a bunch of teenagers with raging
hormones would be so exhausting?
- [CHUCKLES]
- [SIGHS]
Well, you certainly earned those burgers
with how much running you did.
[MARVYN] I'd say.
Wow. I think those girls are
onto something with those sneakers.
My feet are killing me.
Fork 'em over.
What? You're gonna

- [HOLLY] Mm-hmm. [CHUCKLES]
No. Uh, so there was this dress
that I wanted really badly,

wasn't gonna be able to afford it.
He was already working two jobs
just to keep us going.
- So, I got a job. Secretly.
- [MARVYN] Hmm.
- And I saved all my money that spring…
- Yeah.
…so I could buy the dress.
But then prom came,
and I was really nervous.
- About what?
- About showing my dad the dress.
I didn't want to
embarrass him by wearing
something that I
knew he couldn't afford.
[HOLLY SIGHS]
But he wasn't embarrassed.
He was really proud.
And he told me that I was the most
beautiful girl he'd ever
seen. [CHUCKLES]
And he cried.
I'd never seen my dad cry before.
I like hearing about you.
- You do?
- Yeah.
And I agree with your dad
about the most beautiful girl part.

there's something I gotta tell you.
What?

Okay, so Jackson's older brother
knows the bouncer at this club.
And so I gave Dad a cover story,
and we drove up here.
But then the place was really sketchy,
and I wanted to leave,
but they wanted to stay.

So I texted you.
I'm, like, really sorry. And I know
I messed up, and I just wanna go home.
