It's for Players' Ball.

- Players' what?

- Players' Ball.

It's tradition for the emcee

to host a party

for the players and their

guests.

Wouldn't they have sent

an evite or something?

No, I think it's

more festive this way.

- Festive? Okay.

- [chuckles]

Here, I'll help you out.

How about that?

[car alarm blaring]

Hey, hey.

Can I get in the truck?

What in the f*ck happened

to you?

- Can I get in

the f*cking truck, Ray?

- Yeah, hop on in.

[music playing faintly]

You have a handkerchief?

What the f*ck was that, Ray?

What the

What the f*ck you?

Okay, do you know the

you know the guys I had

a deal going with

down in Galveston?

- Yup.

- Yeah, so,

I got a little bit behind

on paying them back on product.

You dumb piece of sh*t.

I mean, what kind of drug dealer

steals from their own supplier?

I mean, I was gonna

I was gonna pay it back.

I got till the end of summer.

[sniffs]

I-I need back in the game, Ray.

[sighs heavily]

You're in a lot of trouble.

Lucky for you,

I know you so well.

- Okay.

- I knew you were gonna

f*ck some sh*t up,

so I went ahead and grabbed you

one of these relics anyway.

Here, look.

Check it out.

I sent in your proof.

- Looks like a d*ck.

- You as*h*le.

[horses neighing]

- [snorting]

- [clucking]

[Anne] He's gonna take

his cues from you.

Horses are extremely intuitive.

My late husband used to say

we should sign him up

for jury duty.

[man] Hey, Anne. Anne.

Oh, sh**t, I forgot Little Bill

was coming over today.

- Little Bill Kelly?

- Yeah. You know him?

Um, just from, like,

around town.

His dad was the sheriff

before Cortez was.

That's right.

You know he did two tours

in Afghanistan?

Took a b*llet.

Missed his spine by an inch.

Came back, he was all

muddled up.

- I try to give him work

whenever I can.

- Howsit?

Yeah. Hey.

Yeah, it's that seed barn

over yonder?

Yeah. Let me get the truck.

Otherwise we have to hike

around the lake.

[chuckles]

- Hey.

- Hey.

Hey, boy.

Hey.

Now, don't forget,

you got to be firm with him.

All right? He's got to know

that you're in control.

Ain't that right, boy?

Ain't that right?

I always wanted

a horse of my own.

I wanted a lot of things.

Horses can sense fear, you know.

- See ya.

- Bye.

- Hey.

- [horse snorts]

Good boy.

[Williams] You know

this town, Reverend.

We're looking for any kids

who have gotten themselves

into trouble this past year.

The idea is that

some of these kids

might be carrying around

pretty big scars.

I'm not a Catholic priest, John,

if you're looking

for confessions.

Who is that?

He looks familiar.

We keep our doors open,

as God commands.

"I am the door.

If anyone enters by Me,

he will be saved."

It's Hunt Kenny.

Graduated last year,

he works with his uncle

- over at the Autolot.

- Hunt Kenny.

I know that name.

He in here a lot?

Not as much as he should be.

Amen.

[Langley] So, I saw

Abby's mom yesterday.

What about those notes

she said Abby was getting?

Well, I think

notes we never read

can't tell us very much,

now, can they?

You ask me my opinion,

I think Mary's trying

to find someone to blame.

You know, somewhere

to put her grief.

Trust me, I know the feeling.

Any luck on those security tapes

I asked you

- to pull from the granary?

- No.

What? The graffiti must have

come from somewhere, man.

Hernandez has been culling

through 20 hours' worth.

Nothing yet.

But I did run by the church

earlier, saw this kid

Hunt Kenny skulking around

a recovery meeting.

[Cortez] Yeah, Hunt

played football with Jimmy.

I knew I remembered his name

from somewhere.

It turns out,

we picked him up a few times.

Vandalism, reckless driving.

We even booked him

on possession once.

All right, Langley, I want you

to drop in on this Hunt kid

and see what kind of trouble

he's gotten himself into.

- Okay.

- Ooh, Williams.

Speaking of trouble,

one of your old friends

is back in town.

- What do you mean?

- Which is funny kind of

timing, 'cause I thought

for sure he was

Beaumont's problem now.

- No.

- As of today,

the prodigal son has returned.



[vehicle approaching]

[engine shuts off]

Grandpa still breathing?

Last I checked.

g*dd*mn.

Here I was hoping

on some good news.

Come here, you little as*h*le.

[both laugh]

[both hollering]

sh*t!

So what the f*ck,

you miss me or what?

- f*ck no.

- [laughs]

- Eh, no.

- Ah.

I missed borrowing

your car, though.

Yeah, I bet you do.

Only way your dumb a*s

could get laid, huh?

- Mm-hmm?

- Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry I couldn't make it

to graduation, man.

I wanted to be there,

but I got this boss

that's riding my a*s so hard.

f*ck won't even buy me flowers

on my birthday.

But, hey, I got you something.

- Hope you like it.

- Oh, come on!

- Get off of me!

- Special delivery

from your older brother.

Thank you.

[entry bell chimes]

- Do you sell wax paper?

- Uh yeah.

Uh, I mean, it's at the back.

You can't miss it.

- Yeah. It's just there.

- All right.

[Natalie] Okay, wow.

Okay. Bake a lot of cookies?

Maybe. No,

I'm just a photographer.

This, uh my flash diffusers

keep disappearing,

so these work just as well.

I recognize you.

You photographed my graduation.

Probably. I did, like,

uh, 13 of them this year.

I'm at Maverick.

- Oh, come on.

You don't remember me?

- I'm sorry.

Black gown?

Matching cap? Tassel?

You're the one with the, uh,

- with the amazing smile,

right?

- Mm-hmm.

See, there it is.

Now I remember.

- Yeah.

- Remind me of your name again?

Uh, I'm Nat.

- Max.

- Hi.

Slinger.

[register beeping]

- So, time to pay.

- Oh, yes.

- Sorry.

- [chuckles]

The old money thing.

[chuckles]

Uh, you photographed

the parade, too, right?

- Yeah, I freelance

for the county.

- Oh.

So I do rodeos,

parades, graduations,

- monster truck rallies.

- Hmm.

So what happened

to those graduation photos?

When do we get to see them?

I sent them over to the school,

- put a couple on the website.

- Do you do headshots?

Yeah. If you ever want one,

you should hit me up.

- It was nice to meet you.

- Yeah.

It's nice to meet you, too.

[exhales]

[bell chimes]

Ooh, what do you think, huh?

Manic pixie dream girl,

tragic ingenue,

dangerous seductress?

Uh, what?

It's outfits. Players' Ball?

Hmm. Okay, let me think.

What about tragic

pixie seductress?

[laughs softly]

- That's a real good one.

- Thank you.

Think it's something.

You tell me everything, right?

Why? What do you want to know?

Nothing, just, like,

if you had a secret,

you would tell me, right?

Oh, Heather, look,

it's, it's not a secret

you and Bishop are,

like, stupid in love.

It's just a cliché.

Whoa-h*, whoa.

- Wait.

- No?

That's not,

that's not what I meant.

- Uh-huh?

- For real, okay?

It was just more of, like,

a philosophical question.

Oh, of course.

Do you remember that list

of names I found

in Spurlock's tunnels?

You know that means

a judge was with us, right?

It's got to be Ray.

His grandfather

used to own that land.

I mean, I bet he picked it

for the underground,

so he could, like, run down

and make names

of whoever made it inside.

Maybe.

Uh, who else could it be?

[exhales]

Bishop and I are not in love,

by the way.

Oh, gosh.

I mean, every time

you guys make eye contact,

it's like your eyeballs

turn into tongues.

- [kissing]

- Okay, first of all,

- that's disgusting.

- Mm-mm.

Second of all,

he's my best friend.

No, you know what? You're right.

I-It's not a cliché,

being in love

with your best friend,

it's just, like,

the number one

Google search term.

- You're delusional.

- You're procrastinating.

[sighs]

Where you going?

I have to get Lily from camp.

- [grunts]

- Fine.

- Procrastinating!

- Okay.

[Hunt] I swear to God,

I've never played the game.

I got enough problems as it is.

[Langley] No sh*t.

Hunt, you had a rough year.

Jimmy talked about it, though?

Once or twice.

All right,

we talked about it, but

it was only because

we had a pool going.

Who did?

Some of the guys on the football

team had a bet going

against some of the girls

on the dance team.

We picked Jimmy to win.

That's why the guys were mad

when he kept f*cking up.

The guys thought

he was keeping his score low

so Abby would go to finals.

Finals? Russian roulette?

Okay, you said that Jimmy

had to keep his score low,

so that means the game

is based on points?

- It's a point system?

- I told you, I never played.

Dude, you were

on the football team.

You had money in the pot.

Who made it to finals?

So why would Jimmy

have to keep his score low

to give Abby a spot?

Who else had the points

last year?

Cole Warren had the points.

But he f*cked off

with some girl to Colorado

before the game was over.

I don't know who took his spot.

Can I go now?

- [door opens]

- When you do know, call me.

- [door closes]

- [Lily] And afternoons,

we're going to do drama

with Miriam.

We're even going

to write our own play.

[Heather] Yes, you told me.

That's very exciting.

Don't forget the permission

slips in the welcome packet.

Mom has to sign both or I can't

go on any of the field trips.

I will make sure

that she signs them,

- I promise.

- [Bo] Damn b*tch.

Who does she think she is, man?

[Lily] What's he doing here?

- Leaving, looks like.

- I wish he'd stay gone.

- [engine starts]

- Hey, baby.

You forgot something.

Give them to your next wh*re.

Hey, you know what?

I'm done with you, Sherri.

- You understand?

- [tires screeching]

You promise?

Yeah, done!

Well, you two coming in,

or do I need to get

a watering can and plant you?

[country music playing softly]

You want to watch something,

the remote's right over there

on the couch.

- Lily? Dinner in five!

- [Lily groans]

[Lily] I'm reading.

What is all that stuff?

Um, stuff the library sent home.

Permission slips so Lily

can go on the field trips.

Do they cost money?

So, you and Bo broke up again?

Yeah. Found some photos

on his phone of some sl*t

he met down at the racetrack.

Hey.

Got something for you.

That's $400 back of what I took.

I made a little extra

working a few weddings.

- I know it isn't much, but

- Thank you.

I just wish I didn't have

to take it in the first place.

You know?

How's the new job going?

That woman got you cleaning

her toilets yet?

No, I mostly just work

with the animals.

Just remember.

You're nobody's maid.

The city people come up here,

think they own the place

and everyone in it.

Anne's not really like that.

She's gonna teach me

to ride horses.

Yeah?

She gonna pay you for that?

[laughs softly]

Lily, dinner! Now!

[Lily] I need to finish

this chapter.

[laughs]

I swear, that girl's gonna get

her nose stuck

in a book one day.

I don't know

where she gets it from.

When I was her age,

you couldn't've paid me

to sit there reading.

Wish I could go back and smack

myself into some sense.

No, when I was young,

all I wanted to do

was hang out with my friends,

listen to music, smoke weed.

[laughs]

No, I should've finished school,

saved up my money.

- Sometimes I think

if I hadn't

- Hadn't what?

[whispering] All I know is,

you're not gonna end up

like I did.

You're too smart for that.

No, you're gonna figure out

what you want,

and you're gonna go after it.



[dog barking]

[grunts softly]

Heather?

Uh, hey.

- What are you doing here?

- Um

Have you seen my sweatshirt?

- Your sweatshirt?

- Yeah.

The green one

with all the patches on it.

You drove all the way out here

to see if I have

your sweatshirt?

I tried to call you.

My phone's dead.

Uh, left my charger

in my dad's car.

So you haven't seen it.

Okay, well,

um, I

um, better get back

to canvassing.

You know, the first 48 hours

after a sweatshirt goes missing

are the most important.

Why are you being so weird?

Could we talk

for a second, inside?

- Uh, yeah, n-now's

not a great time.

- [phone ringing]

I thought you said

your phone was dead.

- Yeah, um, I

- [door opens]

[Leela] Oh.

Hey. Bishop, your phone.

- Uh, uh

- I didn't know

you were coming over.

Yeah, neither did I. [chuckles]

U-Uh, c-could you

give us a minute?

Sure.

Sure, no problem.

- [door closes]

- [Heather] Uh

- Right. Yeah.

- Heather.

- H-Heather.

- I just can't believe

I stood there

word-vomiting at you and

you didn't tell me

that she was

You should have told me.

Look, it's-it's not

what you think.

What I think is

that it's awesome.

You're, you-you-you're

not upset?

Upset? No. I

I am the opposite of upset.

I'm, I'm really happy for you.

W-Well, it seems

like you're upset.

I just

I just can't believe

you didn't tell me.

You know,

we're best friends, right?

Friends are supposed

to tell each other things.

- Especially, like, that thing.

- Heather

Heather, wait. I

I have something

to say to you, too.

And-and I-I've wanted to say it

for a while, but I'm

I-I'm scared

of losing you as a friend.

These-these past few months,

I've felt

a change.

I felt A-And I felt

like-like you might feel

See, the-the thing is

we've been best friends

for a while

and I don't want to

Me neither.

Oh, my God. Me neither. Um

You and me, like that, is

I've never thought

about you like that.

Like, not even for,

like, a split-second,

thought about you like that.

I mean, you're like my brother.

You know, the idea

of kissing you is, like

traumatizing.

So, we're on the same page.

Yeah, I-I just

wanted to make sure.

So that it wouldn't be weird

with Leela.

Not weird.



[crying]

I told you, I am not going.

Yeah, I'm not gonna

let you wallow.

I'm not wallowing.

Uh, yeah, this is

the definition of wallowing.

All right, listen.

You're going to Players' Ball,

you're gonna have fun,

you're gonna look hot.

You're gonna forget

all about Bishop. f*ck him.

But

we really need to fix you up.

[groans]

[Natalie] You look so good.

I did a great job. Ready?

- Sure.

- [laughs]

- Ta-da.

- Ooh.

Oh, come on, you look amazing.

No, I Yeah, no, I just,

I feel like, I feel like

I'm trying to look good.

But you look super hot.

Who cares if you nailed it?

Right?

[clears throat]

[phone chimes and buzzes]

[laughs softly]

Who are you texting?

Um, no one. Just Dodge.

- Mm.

- He said he'd drive us.

What? What are you looking at?

Why do you blush

when you say Dodge's name?

I don't blush.

I mean, we can't win unless

we know the competition, so

Oh, right,

'cause he's a "tactic"? Right.

Haven't you ever heard

"keep your enemies close"?

[both laugh]

- You're scary sometimes.

- Only sometimes?

- Mm-hmm.

- [laughs]

Okay, you win.

I think he's cute.

[laughs] Aha!

And you know I like mysteries.

- Like father, like daughter.

- Ha, very funny.

Luke Hall is here.

I thought he moved away.

[Heather] Or wasn't he

in jail or something?

He played Panic?

Uh, he won Panic.

Didn't he hit a pedestrian

with his car playing Joust?

No, there was no Joust

that year.

Luke won in Roulette.

No one else would touch the g*n.

[Summer] I heard that Luke

and Conrad Spurlock

were in a stolen car.

- Bullshit.

- That

- [Summer] It's not bullshit.

- [Troy] Uh, absolutely,

the fact that

you have three kings is?

I'm gonna grab a drink.

Spurlock and the D.A.

So you think he helped

No, he didn't k*ll the girl.

Nice dress.

[clears throat]

It looks good on you.

- Oh.

- Of course,

it would look better

on my floor.

Please don't tell me that line

actually works on some girls.

- I'm usually the one

working on them.

- Mm.

Did you download your

whole personality from Tinder,

or did you have to get

the douchebag custom?

- Um, it's definitely

one of a kind. Yeah.

- Mm-hmm.

You are an onion of clichés

about terrible people.

[exhales] Yeah?

Yeah.

So what do you want me to say?

Hmm.

Um [clears throat]

I want you to be, like, real.

Like a real person

for, like, two seconds,

instead of a walking condom ad.

[exhales] You want me

to be real with you?

Mm.

Okay.

I'll be real with you.

I like the way

that you bite your lip.

Mm.

I like the way

that you walk around

like the world

is a crowded elevator

and your body's

just some luggage

you're trying to shrink up

so it doesn't bother anybody.

I like your body.

I like to think

about touching it.

I like to think about

how long it would take me

to walk my fingers

across every single inch of it

without missing a spot.

- [clears throat]

- Is that real enough for you?

'Cause it's all bullshit.

[laughs]

A line's a line, sweetheart,

even if it's dressed up pretty.

At least mine are honest.

[exhales]

- You're a f*cking as*h*le.

- So I've heard.

But what do you care

what I think about you, right?

You don't care.

Like you said

at the last challenge,

you'd rather f*cking die.



f*ck you.

Bye, guys. See you later.

See it in your eyes,

we 'bout to f*ck

How come you never laugh?

- I laugh.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah, I laugh.

- Of course.

I laugh when I think things

are actually funny.

Ouch. Okay.

Yeah.

Is this funny?

- [laughs]

- Seriously?

Not seriously. Come on.

- Laugh.

- Okay. Okay.

- I'll laugh if you stop

splashing me.

- I can't.

I'm a dolphin.

- You're a dolph

You're a dolphin?

- [making dolphin sounds]

I'm a dolphin woman.

- It's a real struggle.

- Okay, okay, okay.

You win, dolphin.

Half-dolphin person.

I think you're afraid.

What do you think I'm afraid of?

I don't know.

But I want to find out.

Okay.

Water whippin' in the kitchen,

spend a ticket on me ♪

I been the one,

you know what's up ♪

Hop in the whip,

it's goin' up ♪

He keep a blick,

you know it's tuck

Your lips look really soft.

Thank you.

Like tiny lip pillows.

Yeah, well, Troy told me

if you exfoliate

- Oh, oh, yep, that's my lips.

- [both laugh]

Oh, my God, I love this song.

- Don't you love this song?

Everybody loves this song.

- [stammers]

You know who doesn't

love this song?

Actually, who cares?

Who f*cking cares

if he loves me or not?

It. If he loves it or not.

It.

By the way ♪

Honey, you're the only one ♪

There's a sickness to love ♪

And I don't know why



Are you gonna be okay?



[laughter]

[music playing faintly]

Nice ride.

Be a shame to see it

all banged up.

It's Dodge's.

I'm not driving.

Obviously.

[grunts]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Easy now. Easy now.

Watch the paint job.

f*ck you.

Cars are just like girls,

you know?

Treat 'em nice and gentle

And what, you can

ride 'em longer?

- Can I ask you something?

- Yeah.

Do you have any feelings

at all

that don't come

straight from your p*nis?

I get hungry sometimes.

[both chuckle]

Wow. Hey.

- You're already trashed.

- [sighs]

So?

When the ride's over,

you get off, sweetheart.

[sighs]

Party's that way, you know.

My grandpa used to drink

this sh*t in handles.

Used to

beat ice right down

into the bottle.

I could always tell

it was vodka night,

'cause the smell of piss from

his bedroom would keep me up,

even if I kept the windows open.

It's funny how

I liked that smell.

[bottle shatters]

It meant he'd stayed away

from whiskey.

Whiskey?

He'd stay on his feet

and we woke up

'cause we heard him coming.

Sometimes

I feel like smashing everything.

Sometimes

I want to know

how Jimmy Cortez felt

when he put the barrel

of the g*n in his mouth.

But most of the times

I feel like nothing at all.

Is that good enough for you?

Mm-hmm.

[Heather shudders]

Do you ever want

something good to happen?

A really good thing?

Or, like, maybe

um

you think something good

is gonna happen

and you want it so much

that you forget that

it's not true already?

I don't think good things

are gonna happen to me anymore.

Keeps me

from being disappointed.

That's sad.

You're the one crying

in a parking lot.

[sighs, shudders]

I was not crying.

Oh. Then you have really,

really sweaty eyes.

[chuckles softly]

You know

you and I are a lot alike.

Yeah?

Okay, let's go,

let me have it. Come on.

We're both trash.

[exhales softly]

Wow, thank you.

So, do I take my underwear off

now or later?

No.

I mean we're trash people.

Throwaways.

Castoffs.

We're the shitty exit

of a nowhere town

in a place

that nobody wants to be.

You know what people see

when they look at us?

Coupons that go in the garbage.

They see dirt that washes off

in their fancy showers.

They see shitty clothes

they'd never wear,

shitty jobs

they'd never want to work.

They can't roll their windows up

fast enough

to keep out the smell of poor.

But can I tell you something?

I love that smell.

Sweat.

Hunger.

Life.

[whispers]

Rich girls smell like plastic.

You turned into a bird

that night.

I don't know what you are.

It doesn't matter

that you're pretty.

I don't care.

[whispers]

I saw you fly.





[clattering nearby]

Wait.

What is it?

I don't know.

I thought I heard something.

[girl] Over here, guys, come on!

[girl 2] Check it out,

it's starting.

We should split up.

Fine by me.

"Friday. From Dusk till Dawn.

Graybill House. "

Can't wait to clean this sh*t.

It's still wet.

Couldn't have gone up

more than a few minutes ago.

But that means

The judges are here.

At least one of them, anyway.
