01x04 - Great in the Living Room

[bunniefuu]

Previously on Big Shot

By the end of this year, we are

going to be in Division II.

- Where we going?

- DII!

It would be an incredible achievement,

but you realize that if we make it,

we're gonna have our asses

handed to us for a while?

Welcome to Westbrook, Ms. Korn.

Everybody in! Selfie.

- You have like a million followers.

- 149,000.

But I'm working on it.

I'm doing a video profile on your dad.

Journalistic integrity demands

I get the story from all angles.

I'm actually down. I do have

some things to say about him.

Lance Armstrong.

O.J. Simpson.

Marvyn Korn.

These are the fallen heroes of sports,

the faces that have

crushed the American spirit.

I'm Harper Schapira.

When I first set out to make

my latest faculty Scha-profile,

I wanted to hold Marvyn Korn accountable

for this.

Then I landed a very special interview,

which made me realize

I was asking "What?"

when the real question was "Why?"

Why did Marvyn Korn throw it

all away by throwing that chair?

We begin by hearing from

the people who know him best.

Why did he throw it?

Because the ref made a bad call.

He really hates that.

He said his dad called him an

embarrassment when he was a kid.

So, maybe that messed him up.

- Come on.

- I think he was trying to prove something.

I mean, I don't know exactly what,

but it was definitely not nothing.

Drilling down into that double negative,

it's clear that Marvyn was definitely

out to prove something.

But what?

Speaking as a licensed

mental health professional,

it wouldn't be ethical for

me to discuss Mr. Korn.

But I would say it's textbook

narcissistic personality disorder,

along with impulse control issues.

Maybe.

But Marvyn's daughter,

Emma, begs to differ.

And what she said changed the

very course of this Scha-profile.

He's not the monster

they make him out to be.

After the chair thing, he

Emma?

It changed him. I mean, I'd

never seen my dad cry before.

But after his dad died

Emma?

I just wish he knew how

much people loved him.

How much I love him.

He's so much more sensitive and

- I don't know, delicate

- Emma! Emma!

- What?

- Have you seen this?

Mm-hmm. I think it was pretty good.

- You think it's pretty good?

- Uh-huh.

- It makes me look

- Like an actual human being?

No. Weak. Why did you do this?

You were so upset about

moving past the chair stuff,

but you weren't doing anything

about it, so I wanted to help.

All right. Tell me how did

she get you to say all that?

She didn't get me to say

anything. I told the truth.

You're not the awful character

the media created.

I created that character!

I've spent my whole career

building an image

of strength and invincibility

- You're eating now?

- Dad.

Strength and invincibility. That's

what gives a coach his power.

But it's a lie.

People need to know that

you care. Because you do.

- Okay, good. Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Thank you very much.

I'm shutting this down.

Shutting what down? The Internet?

- Just watch the rest of the video.

- No.

- I'm telling you, it's good.

- I hate it.

Mmm, I loved it. You were

kind, warm, vulnerable, even.

Yeah. It's a hatchet job.

And that weird kid

- Harper.

- Harper.

She set up my daughter.

"Marvyn Korn's daughter"

is the last thing

I want people to think

about her, not the first.

Marvyn, she is always

going to be your daughter.

Now that is a blessing and

curse she cannot escape.

She needs to find her own

identity, outside of me.

Ooh, that may be the smartest

thing you've said this morning.

And, you know, it wouldn't be

the worst thing in the world

for the parents here to

think you have a soul.

Not to mention the teachers.

I'm not trying to win

a popularity contest.

- I don't care what they think about me.

- Well, I do.

Besides, nobody watches Harper's videos.

She does stories on mathletes and

vegan options in the cafeteria.

God bless her.

She's trying to be a journalist in

a world full of BuzzFeed quizzes.

Nobody's gonna see the damn thing.

- You think?

- Mmm.

All right. Okay.

- It was definitely not what I was expecting.

- Right?

Then the part where his mom

died when he was eight

and the music got all sad.

Harper's a great filmmaker.

It was kind of nice to see

that side of Coach.

- I was surprised you did that interview.

- Well, he's my dad.

- It's so weird to think of him as a dad.

- Eh, I can see it.

This video might be the best

thing to happen to Coach.

Don't tell him that. He thinks

it's ruining his brand.

He wants people to think

he's a cold robot?

He wants people to think

he's strong and intimidating.

I do not understand guys.

Is it an ego thing or

Maybe Olive can help him with his brand.

Where is she?

She said she had a business

meeting off campus.

Who has business meetings

in high school?

What even is her life?

Amazing workout, you guys!

That's how you earn

the perfect beach body.

Now, I'm gonna finish it off

with some laps in my pool.

Be sure to leave a comment about

which workout you wanna see next.

You're a natural. Smart. Gorgeous.

Everything Hana Kea Swimwear is

looking for in collab partners.

I'm super excited to work with you guys.

A little gift from us.

- This is, like, $2,000 worth of swimwear.

- Just the beginning.

I won't lie. You could be

the face of our brand.

Our standard contract for all

of our partner influencers.

So, I just wear the suits in my videos?

And say how much you like them.

Ooh!

Can't forget the most important

part. Your collab fee.

Welcome to the Hana Kea family.

How about a selfie to celebrate?

- Oh, you don't have to ask me twice.

- Okay.

- Say Hana Kea.

- Hana Kea.

"Loving Hana Kea. So proud

to be a part of this family".

Damn, Olive, you're gonna

have so much money

even before your trust fund kicks in.

You can move out of your parents'

beach house and get your own.

They said I might become

the face of the brand.

Have you read all these comments?

People are talking a lot

of trash about Hana Kea.

"Sweatshop labor? No, thank you.

Do your homework, Olive".

Oh, and another.

"Hana Kea workers are

basically starving".

Well, there's always

gonna be a few trolls.

It's more than a few.

It's more than half.

I'm just a spokesperson.

They can't blame me for that stuff.

Um, I think they can, and they are.

Besides, Hana Kea sucks.

The bikini I bought faded

after three washes.

Well, that does it.

Louise's minor inconvenience

once again shines light

on important social justice issues.

Shut up. They ripped me off.

You mean they ripped your parents off?

'Cause you don't pay for anything.

- I dunno, Olive. This is bad.

- What are you gonna do?

I already signed the deal,

so, I mean, what can I do?

Hmm.

Oh, no.

I'm so sorry.

Looks like you're going to

have to make a fresh pot.

I figured you as more of a

"spot of tea" type person.

What a grand idea!

Hmm.

Ooh, spot of tea.

Hmm.

- Hey, Coach.

- Hmm?

I saw the video.

- Powerful.

- Yeah.

Terri, did you see the

Scha-profile on Marvyn?

And spend 15 extra

minutes with Mr. Korn?

That video, that was

all made up, that stuff.

Sure seemed like she did her research.

I mean, that sad picture of

you with your little lambie

- That was in there?

- Yeah. I thought you watched it.

I enjoyed seeing you in your glory days.

My glory days aren't over.

I'm taking this team to DII.

Then you must be thrilled

Laguna's losing Savannah Gibson.

What? They are?

Yeah, Carlsbad Prep's recruiting her.

Laguna's gonna be a whole lot

easier to beat when she's gone.

Recruiting? That's legal?

Perfectly. It's a private high school.

They can do whatever they want.

- Come on. Be tough.

- Get there.

Ah.

Come on. Bring it back. Bring it back.

Hey. I know how we're gonna get to DII.

Practice is great, Coach.

Thanks for asking.

Bringing in the boys was

a really good idea.

Yeah, it was a good idea.

Did you hear Laguna's losing

Savannah Gibson?

Yeah. She's going to Carlsbad.

No, she's coming here, and

she's gonna help us win.

Post up, Gruzinsky! Post up.

You're smart to get rid of it. 'Cause

you're not gonna score on me.

Yeah, right. Anytime I want.

In your face.

Good, Gruzinsky. Go! Bring

it back, Gruzinsky, back.

You're not really suggesting we

recruit Savannah Gibson, are you?

Suggesting? I'm saying

we're gonna do it.

Oh. Okay.

- You don't agree?

- I mean, what's it matter?

You've clearly made up your mind.

If we have Savannah Gibson, we

will dominate. Don't you get it?

I'm not engaging.

Don't be lazy.

- You're talking about me, aren't you?

- Of course not.

Don't cut corners.

Okay.

- Cheaters never win.

- Give me that.

So, you're saying, by recruiting

the best player in the region,

that we're cutting corners

and we're cheating and

- What was the other one you said?

- Oh, lazy.

Practice is over, ladies. Bring it in.

Ms. Korn. What are you doing here?

Waiting for my dad to finish practice.

- He's my ride.

- Hmm.

Bet you'd love to find something

more interesting

to do than just waiting for your dad.

It's hard to imagine anything

more interesting than that.

So, what were some of the things

you liked to do at your other school?

I don't know. Just usual stuff.

I guess I was Dulcinea in Man

of La Mancha first semester.

Okay. Come with me.

Yeah, come on. Right now.

"Oh, what a to-do to die today

at a minute or two till two.

A thing distinctly hard to

say yet harder still to do".

Répétez.

Miss Goodwyn! Wonderful news.

I have discovered an

incandescent ingenue for you.

Really? Who?

Meet Emma Korn. She'll

be joining the play.

- She will?

- I will?

She will.

Her Dulcinea in Man of La Mancha

won her the coveted Kevin Award.

That's the, uh, the Tony of the

Wisconsin public high schools.

Well, of course, I'm familiar,

and we would love to have her,

but unfortunately, all

the roles have been cast.

Oh, that's okay.

Did you know that Miss

Goodwyn is so talented

that she wrote this play herself?

Well, actually it's a

cowritten adaptation.

A gender-flipped Macbeth.

A she-make, if you will.

Beth Macbeth.

Wholly in keeping with our mission

to reframe the stale patriarchy

through female eyes.

That sounds cool.

If by "cool", you mean "groundbreaking",

then I gladly accept your compliment.

Which is why a playwright

with your gifts

can easily add a role for Emma.

I don't want her to

compromise her vision.

Not to mention Mr. Shakespeare's.

I think that once he signed off

on the concept of "Beth Macbeth",

throwing in a Guard Three shouldn't

cause you any "toil" or "trouble".

Oh!

Touché, Ms. Thomas.

That's why you're an executive producer.

Eh, that is not why.

But I look forward to

what you two cook up.

So let's get to cookin'.

Oh

Wonderful.

I'll be done with practice

around 5:30 or so,

if you wanna come hang out in

my office, do your homework.

That's okay. Actually, I have

play rehearsal this afternoon.

Play rehearsal? Really,

you're in a play?

Yeah, it was Ms. Thomas's idea.

I thought I'd try it out.

Seemed like she wanted me

to get involved in something.

- That's great.

- Yeah.

If it's something you

wanted to do. I mean,

Sherilyn can be a little bossy.

- Dad, it's rude to call women bossy.

- Got it.

She's cool. And isn't she,

like, literally your boss?

Technically. Technically, she's my boss.

I'm glad to hear Emma's

enjoying the play.

As for Savannah, we'd love to

have a player of her caliber,

but I hear she's down the

road with Carlsbad Prep.

Let me worry about that.

I once got a commitment from

the best guard in the country

while he was literally sitting

in the coach's office at Kansas.

I'm great in the living room.

Be careful, you don't pop your shoulder

patting yourself on the back.

Okay, just let me know how it goes.

I'm gonna

To do this, I'm gonna need

Okay, okay. Mm-hmm.

Let help you with the words.

- "I need"

- I need

" a scholarship".

Yes. That's what I need.

I mean, I can't make her parents

an offer then stick 'em with an invoice.

I mean, you could.

A man who once convinced

a coach in Kansas

to guard his office, or

whatever you just said,

I'm thinking that dude

could work miracles.

- Fine. You can have it.

- Thanks.

Okay, you guys.

The last couple days have

been super stressful.

Quick version, Hana Kea

Swimwear asked me

to model their gear in my videos.

But I'm not gonna do it, because,

truth b*mb, Hana Kea is bad.

They make their suits in sweatshops

where they don't pay the

workers a living wage.

So I won't stand here

in a Hana Kea suit.

I stand with their workers.

BeingReal, ♪CancelHanaKea.

- What do you think?

- k*lled it.

Posting it now.

I'm really proud of you.

I don't know if I would

have the guts to do that.

I have to be real.

My followers depend

on me for quality recs.

- What about the money they gave you?

- Tore up the check.

You did the right thing.

Companies get away with

this stuff all the time.

No one holds them accountable.

I mean, they can't take advantage

of us if we call 'em out.

Thanks, guys.

- I feel good about it.

- You should.

- Did you guys finish the homework?

- Yep.

No.

- It's blowing up!

- Oh, my

And Dylan saw it.

So, now he's all over your

friends' Instas too?

- He's obsessed with you.

- Definitely.

- Shut up.

- No.

- He's been into you for 7 1/2 years.

- That is very specific, Mouse.

Stop acting like you don't

wanna smooch him.

Oh, my God. Your maturity

level's off the charts.

Well, you're feeling awfully confident.

Oh, yeah. I'm great in the living room.

They're coming to the school.

It's just a saying. You know that.

Oh, what's with the ring?

This is the year we beat North Carolina.

It's my good luck charm.

- Nice.

- Wait till you see me in action.

You're gonna love it.

Oh. Yeah. I'm not gonna be there.

You're still hung up on all this?

Marvyn, you're trying to rig the game

by stealing a student

from another school.

No, no, no, no, no. No.

I'm stealing a student from a school

who's trying to steal

her first. Big difference.

Recruiting a ringer's the easy way out.

We should win with the

players that we have.

We're gonna win. We're

just gonna win more often.

How can you not see this?

I see it. I

I lived it.

I was that player who was

replaced with a big recruit,

and I'm just telling you

that it's a confidence k*ller.

Look, any team would love to play

with the best player they can.

- Don't you see that?

- Yeah, any college team.

This is high school. Feelings matter.

The girls are gonna be upset. I

But you want to do it.

Sherilyn said it's okay.

So have at it.

So I turned to him, I said, "Coach K.

You know I love you, Mike. I really do.

But that last name, you know

Can I buy a vowel?"

- Wait a minute. That was the Final Four?

- That's right. 2012.

Duke was the top seed at the dance.

I dropped us into a box-and-one.

We smothered their point

guard, kept them at 58.

They went home. We moved on.

- I saw that game. It was pretty amazing.

- Oh, yeah.

And this here is our

state-of-the-art cafeteria.

In-house chef, vegan

options every single day.

Hmm. Get a load of

that salad bar, honey.

Mm-hmm.

Seeing how many likes the salad bar has.

What are likes?

Tell you later.

Was that Coach with Savannah Gibson?

Why's he acting all smiley?

You don't think he's recruiting her?

No, I heard she's going to Carlsbad.

He's probably just giving her

a tour of the school.

For no reason?

And now, I like to let our

home court speak for itself.

How would you like

this to be your house?

It's nice.

I know it may be a little hard

for you to imagine being here

so maybe this will help.

Whoa.

They got your number.

Savannah, you see that?

Yeah, 'cause I'm standing here.

- Okay, go You have this

- Oh. Thank you.

Yeah. There you go.

Now, listen. If you listen carefully,

you can almost hear the crowd

chanting your name. Do you hear it?

- Savannah, Savannah

- Listen.

- Savannah, Savannah

- You hear it?

- Savannah, Savannah

- I hear it.

Well, this is all nice,

but they had most of these

things at Carlsbad too.

Wait, wait. I'm not done.

Okay, Coach, you need to understand

that we have a plan here.

Now, Savannah's going to UConn.

She'll be a WNBA first round pick,

sign a max deal, plus endorsements,

then, in the off-season, make

ten times that amount overseas.

- That's a good plan.

- That's God's plan.

Even better.

If she comes to Westbrook,

she's gonna be positioned

perfectly for all that.

Westbrook is a DIII school.

Carlsbad is DI.

Yes, they are.

Play at Carlsbad, you win, it's fine.

But you're just next in line

to a long list of great players.

But if you play here,

and if you win here

you're a legend.

Legend.

Now, how are you gonna

pay for all this, you ask?

Savannah, we are giving you a full ride.

And?

Coach,

Carlsbad's offer was a

little more, um, serious.

Yes, they seemed to, um,

have a better grasp on

certain needs that we have.

Transportation, for example.

A car.

A nice car.

And certain educational cultural

immersion opportunities.

Tropical cultural immersions.

- Vacations.

- Mm-hmm.

Coach, there's money coming

out of the floorboards here.

This should be easy.

Yeah, look All that stuff is fine.

And if I'm Carlsbad, I'm

giving her jet skis and tigers.

You know, anything she wants.

But do you know why they do that?

Because they have to.

Because they don't have me.

Now, when I'm done with her, she's

gonna be ready to torch the NCAA.

She's gonna be a better

version of herself

on the floor and off the floor.

You wanna play for cash and

prizes, good. Go to Carlsbad.

But if you want to be a winner,

you come to Westbrook.

And if you want be the best, you

need to be coached by the best.

And I am the best.

Well, you were.

I mean, no offense, Coach,

but if you're such a winner,

why're you coaching

at a DIII high school?

Coach, it's not that we think

you have nothing to offer.

I mean, you used to be Marvyn Korn.

Jack, I still am Marvyn Korn.

Well, the way we see it, Coach,

is Savannah helps you

a whole lot more than you help her.

And, well, there's only one

coach that's gonna land her.

So, if you want to play in this

game, you need to play to win.

- Okay?

- Okay.

Well, I think we're done here.

Honey.

Forget it.

I already gave you the

scholarship. That's it.

That's not gonna get it done.

Carlsbad's backing up the money

truck and leaving the keys.

I'm not entering an arms race over this.

You said you were great in

the living room, remember?

I was sitting here, you

were sitting there,

you said, "Oh, I'm great

in the living room".

Hell, I could be great

in the living room too

if I could hand out cars full

of cash and trips to Hawaii.

But that's a line I've never crossed.

And neither have you,

or so I've been told.

- Correct?

- Damn right. Correct.

Okay, so if you played it clean,

how did you land all

those great players?

- 'Cause I used to be Marvyn Korn.

- Right.

And all of those players were tripping

over themselves to play for that guy.

But now?

I'll be damned if I get out-recruited

by some high school coach.

You better figure out how

to be Marvyn Korn again.

Because the bank of Westbrook is closed.

Cool, I'll text you her number.

You're the man, Garnett.

I appreciate it.

I just want you to put

in a good word. That's it.

Thanks, Jerry.

That's why you are the logo man.

If you could just say a

few nice things to her.

You're the man, Steph, thanks.

I know it's a big ask,

but I really appreciate it.

Yeah, her name is Savannah.

I'll text you her number.

Cool, thank you.

No idea.

Hey, Coach. You got a second to ta

- Is Savannah Gibson coming here?

- Yeah, I'm working on it.

But, uh, it's looking good.

Wait. That's my I'm number 11.

Am I being cut?

What? No, no one's being cut.

So much for no stars on our team.

There are no stars on our team.

And there won't be

any stars on our team.

So, we all get giant banners?

Look, Savannah She's not

gonna come here and take over.

She's a talented player,

but she's a team player.

She'll fold right in.

Don't worry about it.

Aren't we enough?

It's not about Look, nobody

turns down firepower.

It's She's just gonna

make everyone better

Girls, I'm doing this for you.

That's funny. It feels like

you're doing it to us.

All right, ladies. Let's

Let's go stretch. Get

ready for practice.

- Go ahead. Say it.

- Say what?

You know what you wanna say. Say it.

Marvyn, I have no idea

what you're talking about.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Told ya.

And blocked.

- Who was that?

- This lady from Hana Kea.

She's called, like, six times.

- She probably wants you to take that post down.

- Not happening.

- Don't you think you should at least talk to her?

- Why?

I mean, you dumped 'em over Insta,

which was, like, pretty badass,

but that's like breaking up via text.

So? I got a ton of supportive comments.

I am done with them.

Guys, am I overthinking this

whole jersey number thing?

'Cause I feel like it's

kind of a bad sign.

No. It's a terrible sign.

Um,

Why is he recruiting players

from outside of Westbrook?

I don't know. It's a college thing.

All the coaches do it,

like it's part of the game.

Well, it's stupid.

Yeah, and why Savannah

Gibson? She's the enemy.

- She's gonna be a teammate now?

- She's a ball hog.

I heard her teammates can't stand her.

But she's an amazing player. She

could get us into Division II.

We will get us into Division II.

- Thank you.

- You think Savannah's the end of it?

Mouse, what happens when Coach

decides that we need a new point guard

and comes for your position?

- Or number.

- Would he do that?

Hey, keep me out of this.

I really don't know.

He doesn't talk to me about this stuff.

Oh, my God. By this time next year,

we could have a whole new starting five.

- I can just feel it.

- Okay, relax.

For now, it's just one forward.

Savannah's either gonna

replace me or Destiny.

- Let's be real. It will probably be me.

- Yeah, it'll be you.

Any of us could ride the bench.

Like Emma said, we're all replaceable.

I never said that. Please

don't bring me into this.

Is that the swimsuit company again?

No.

My mom wants me to come home. Now.

- This is crazy.

- I know.

- What's going on

- Who is Katrina from Hana Kea Swimwear?

She called threatening to sue for

defamation and breach of contract.

What? Look, that can't be right.

You signed a contract

without telling us?

And then slandered the company

after taking their money?

No, they

They're making swimsuits

in sweatshops

- How could you be so irresponsible?

- And what is this?

Olive-U-Fitness?

That isn't your house.

That isn't your life.

- I know that.

- You know that.

But you're so ashamed of us you

pretend you don't even live here.

Is this why you never

invite friends over?

Look, it's not like that.

I'm creating a brand. It inspires

people to want what I have.

But you don't have it.

This is because of that school.

The values there are

completely out of whack.

And we're k*lling ourselves,

working overtime, just to put you there.

- Yeah, well, that's done. You're out.

- Out?

At the end of the semester,

you're transferring.

That's not fair! Mom?

You put this on yourself.

And give me your phone.

You're off social media.

What?

So, did you find a way

to get Savannah Gibson?

- You bet I did.

- Great.

Did you buy her a new car, or

are you gonna give her ours?

Oh, stop it.

No, I called in some favors.

She's gonna be hearing

from some big names

that she'd be crazy to pass

up being at Westbrook

with the famous Emma Korn.

Ow.

I think the girls on the

team are really upset.

And what makes you think that?

'Cause they just complained for

an hour about how upset they are.

Well, they're gonna have to get over it.

I'm not gonna lose the best player

in the region to Carlsbad.

So, that's what all this

is about? Winning?

You're damn right it is.

You should finish watching the video.

Really.

After his college playing career ended,

Marvyn gave this interview

to Radio Sport Budapest.

I mean, I just love to play.

I mean, these guys, my teammates,

we barely speak each other's languages,

but we share the passion for the game.

Every morning I wake up excited

thinking about what I get to do all day.

I'd play basketball even

if they didn't pay me.

If I washed out in Hungary,

I'd go to Siberia.

And if they don't want me there,

then I'll find a pickup game at the Y.

If there wasn't one there, then

there's still a hoop

in my dad's driveway.

You know, I just love the game.

But if that's who Marvyn Korn is,

why did he throw it all away?

He himself gave us the answer

his first year as a coach.

It can't just be about winning because

if all you care about is winning,

then that's the only thing

that brings you joy.

What do you do when you lose?

What do you do when you lose?

You throw it all away.

Marvyn Korn started

caring only about winning

and forgot his love of the game.

But perhaps he's rediscovering

it now, here at Westbrook.

He told us we had the

potential to be great.

And I believe him.

Basketball used to be

just a checkbox for me.

But now I can't wait

to get on the court.

He really believes in us.

He thinks that our little group

can go all the way.

So, they're really gonna

pull you out of Westbrook?

Yeah.

End of semester. It's really bad.

I was afraid of this happening

when you posted that video.

Oh, please. You knew Hana Kea

was gonna call her parents,

threaten to sue and get her

kicked out of school?

They run sweatshops. I don't

know what they're capable of.

I should've told you not to post it.

No. It's my fault.

I messed up.

If your parents are so

worried about being sued,

can't they just write a check

and make it go away?

They

They don't have that kind of money.

Olive, we've seen your house on Insta.

Yeah, but you've never

been there, have you?

Because I don't live there.

It's just some mansion on

the beach I film in front of.

- Wait, what?

- What does that even mean?

So, where do you live?

I live a little closer to San Diego.

And that's why I'm always

here so early, to beat traffic.

Uh, okay, and what, you were

just never gonna mention this?

Were you embarrassed

to tell us the truth?

Yeah. Like, this is so

I don't even

I guess it started with the

picture of that Celine bag

my grandparents got me

when I got into Westbrook.

It got way more likes than

I'd ever gotten before.

And then I took a picture

in front of that huge house,

and I got tons more followers,

and it just felt good.

Until I realized everyone thought

that's who I actually was,

and I didn't know how

to take it all back.

I just got so caught up in it all.

I know I messed up.

I lied to you guys.

Well, it's not a lie lie.

I mean, it's Instagram.

I Facetune my pics all the time.

I whiten my teeth in

basically every post.

Yeah, but that's not really

the same thing, is it?

That shot of me with Hillary

Clinton? Wax museum.

We know. You geotagged it.

I'm sorry.

Guess I just wanted people

to think I belonged here.

You do belong here.

Yeah. So you had the

"fake house filter" on.

Who cares? I don't.

I do.

'Cause she's basically saying that

we wouldn't wanna hang out

with her if she wasn't rich.

- That's gross.

- No, it's not it at all. I

Destiny, chill.

Olive, it's okay.

We've got your back. We're

gonna figure something out.

Holly?

- Holly!

- What? I'm here.

Hey, I figured it out. I know

what to do with Savannah.

- Oh, no. I don't wanna hear it.

- It involves you.

I don't care. I don't want to

have anything to do with it.

It doesn't matter. You're coming

with me. You're gonna like it.

Come on. Come on.

I know Carlsbad made you an offer,

but I'm gonna make you a better one.

Now there's a reason why I've recruited

so many great players over the years.

It's because I never

bribed them. Not once.

All I had to offer was a chance

to play the game you love

with the best players,

the best coaching team,

at the best school.

So that's my offer.

Nothing. Not even a scholarship.

Just us.

So, what did the Gibsons say?

Well, they said, "No way".

No, what they actually said

was "No bleeping way".

Wow, is that the reaction you expected?

It was. Yeah, I wasn't surprised.

It's just who they are.

Wait, I thought you wanted

Savannah for the team.

I did initially.

But then I realized that it might

be something I was gonna regret.

But thanks to your daughter here

and the other girls on the team

and Coach Barrett here

and, weirdly enough, this

stupid little video that I did

- We saw that.

- It was really revealing.

Right.

The point is that they

helped me realize

that I was losing my way.

That I wanted Savannah

for all the wrong reasons.

But I want Olive to stay

for the right reasons.

And I think she wants

to stay as well. Right?

I definitely do.

Now, Olive told us that you are working

overtime just to keep her in school.

Yeah, I get that. My

parents did the same.

It isn't easy.

I can't even remember the last time

we were able to get to a game.

Yeah, well, that is why we

wanna offer Olive a full ride.

I mean, we appreciate it.

- Really.

- But?

But Westbrook

just isn't working for Olive

or our family anymore.

What?

You have concerns about the values

and how they might

affect your daughter

Not how they might, how they are.

The whole "look at me" culture.

It's not the school, Mom. It was me.

Was it you?

Because when we saw you online,

we felt like we were

looking at a stranger.

And that scared us.

We don't even know who you are anymore.

Well, I do.

If I may

Look, it It's easy for her to hide

who she is behind Instagram.

But one thing I've learned

being a coach all these years is

you can't hide who you are on the court.

Now, your daughter here,

she's always the first one

to pass to a teammate,

even though she knows she has the shot.

She hustles when she's gassed.

She brings her A game

when nobody's watching.

Your daughter here,

she's a heart with legs.

And I would've loved to have

been a teammate of yours.

And I love coaching you.

And I'd really appreciate it if you

allow me to continue to coach her.

I know this isn't just about money,

but I can't afford to lose Olive.

Let me get this straight. You pulled

the offer for Savannah Gibson.

- Yes.

- Mm-mmm.

And instead gave the

scholarship to Olive,

who's already a student here.

Olive's parents are k*lling themselves

trying to pay tuition.

What I gave Olive was

time with her family.

Uh-huh. Bottom line, it cost

me a full-ride scholarship,

not to get a game-changing new player

but to keep one we already had.

- Exactly.

- Hmm.

- You're quite the master negotiator.

- Thank you.

Not a compliment.

And what about this Hana Kea thing?

None of that played into this?

- You heard about that?

- Korn, please.

Well, yeah, it sorta played part in it.

They're still threatening a lawsuit,

but they haven't heard from me.

Oh, let's let them hear

from you right now.

This is Coach Korn from

Westbrook. I'm here with

Sherilyn Thomas, Head

of Students at Westbrook.

We hear you have a pending lawsuit

with one of our students, Olive Cooper.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm not

at liberty to discuss

any litigation.

Great. Then you'll be

at liberty just to listen.

Westbrook has a very prestigious law

firm on a very expensive retainer,

and they're just itching

for something to do.

Not to mention all the army

of parents with law degrees,

who would do anything to

protect these students.

If we were to tell them

about your lawsuit,

they would probably take you

down just for the sport of it.

Do you feel where I'm

going with this, Katrina?

Can you sense the size of the

catastrophe that's about to befall you?

I'm tickled just thinking about it.

All righty. Be blessed. Talk soon, dear.

Yeah, we showed her.

What?

I haven't been honest with you guys.

The truth is, my life is not

all perfect beach days.

I'm not rich.

My family is just normal.

Probably kinda like yours.

I thought I had to be somebody

different for you all to like me.

But I was wrong.

I'm enough.

We're all enough.

How was that?

It was perfect.

Now give me my phone back.

- Oh! Uh, sorry, I was just, um

- Excuse me.

Mr. Korn.

Um

I spent a semester in Budapest

for my master's program.

You saw the video on me.

I did. Yeah.

Uh, you know, I might

have misjudged you.

I'm not saying that I like you.

But perhaps I don't like

you just a tiny bit less.

Tiny bit.

Hmm. Hmm.

Bye, fake number 11.

It's not bye forever. We have

Carlsbad in two weeks.

Well, she better come to play

because we are going to bring it.

I'll see you guys later.

- Hey, Coach.

- Hi.

My folks got this for you.

My dad owns a bakery.

Well, much appreciated

and totally unnecessary.

Craziest thing

Hana Kea just dropped

the lawsuit. I wonder why.

I have no idea. But

it's a good thing, right?

I'm going to celebrate

by eating one of these.

- Tell your folks thanks.

- I'll see them later.

- We're grabbing dinner after practice.

- Yeah? Special occasion?

Yeah. Tuesday.

I don't really have time for this.

Go, ladies. Go.

Five minutes till rehearsal.

If you've not done your vocal warm-ups,

you won't be cheating

anybody else but yourself.

And your castmates. And me.

And Mr. Shakespeare.

"What a to-do to die today

at a minute or two to two.

A thing distinctly hard to

say yet harder still to do".

"What a to-do to"

How're you doing? Here, I brought

you a poppy seed muffin.

Hmm. That's unsanitary.

So, how's play practice going?

- Um, it's rehearsal

- Mm-hmm.

and it's my first one.

And it hasn't started yet.

Why are you here? Don't you

have basketball rehearsal?

Yes, I do. Pretty soon.

I just wanna, you know,

check out your things.

Oh.

You don't usually show a lot of

interest in, you know, my things.

Well, I'm here now.

- Wanna go to dinner after?

- Sure.

Boys.

- Who What Why are they here?

- They're in the play.

Um, I think they come

from our brother school.

Okay, so rehearsal is starting.

So you should probably go.

Yeah. Yeah, totally.

You know, why don't

I count to 100 first?

You know that thing you like me to do?

"Can you count to 100?"

I'm just gonna do that.

One

Two

- Hey.

- Hey.

Three.
