Man: ♪ Feel the sunshine... ♪
Olivia: What, so there's just some, like, night bandit
that's, like, creeping around and robbing people?
Nobody said nothing about a night bandit.
This ain't Gotham.
Ha ha!
There's been a few break-ins lately,
and with my mom and D'Angelo in Cabo,
they asked me to house-sit.
OK, but if this were Gotham,
I'm pretty sure that would make me Batman...
Ah.
you know, since you put out the Bat-Signal,
I had to fly over here to protect you.
Yeah. That is the only reason
I asked you to stay.
In fact, the sooner you start protecting,
the better.
Ha ha!
[Cell phone vibrating]
I'm sorry.
-[Sighs] -What's wrong?
Nothing. It's just my editor is looking
for the first draft of my book,
and I missed my deadline, and his last 5 calls.
Yeah, but you done writing it.
The book is dope.
Greatness takes time,
and my book is just missing something.
My dad is just too important
to just send it in before I know,
and my editor's just gonna have to wait
until I figure it out.
Stand down, Batman. I got this.
Deion?
Ms. Baker, I want to prep Patience for trial.
Look. I appreciate your enthusiasm,
but Patience is going to need real prep
since that's not a particular strength
of D.A. Lewis or his team.
OK, so let me help.
I mean, I'm the one that's been talking her
off the ledge for months now.
It's just too big of a case,
and Miko's team of sharks
are out for blood.
I've been killing it in my legal classes,
learning so much from you and my professors.
Let me do this. I'm ready.
Are you?
Because prepping Patience for trial
is going to mean interrogating her
about the case's most intimate details.
It will be hard to do to someone you love.
I would not be doing it to her.
I'd be doing it for her because I love her.
I will prep Patience with questions about Miko,
the night of, every detail.
I will have her ready.
Fine, but I want to see the entire trial
once you've run through it.
You got it.
Deion: Preach told me you might be here.
I didn't know if I should come, but--
What's going on?
Quit the team.
After you helped me realize
football was making me miserable,
I just couldn't, so as of yesterday,
I'm no longer a football player at South Crenshaw.
How'd your sister take it?
She kicked me out.
What about your parents?
Mom's passed, and I ain't seen my dad
since he--
I got no one else.
Well, then I'm glad you came here.
-Yeah? -Yeah.
Yeah. You gonna stay,
but, uh, you got to text your sister, man.
Just to let her know you're safe.
And then what?
Then we'll figure it out, promise.
Hmm.
Would you like some water before we start?
Um...
There's no need to be nervous.
I'm not...nervous.
Good. Now we covered your psychiatric history
in our prior session, so I'd like to focus
on the present.
You got engaged recently, right?
Last year.
I don't see how that has to do with anything.
Well, your antidepressants
were working for years,
and then within the last year,
you started feeling numb.
It's not uncommon for that to be triggered
by big changes in your life during that time.
I didn't only get engaged.
I also started a new business,
and I, um--I helped a friend recover
after she got stabbed
by someone I introduced her to.
It's been a tough year for you.
I can see that, and, look,
we will focus on those other events, too,
but we need to start somewhere.
Oh, my pending marriage is the least of my worries.
I love Jordan,
and none of what's happening is his fault.
Oh, I'm not assigning blame.
I know, and I know you're very good,
and you come very highly recommended
from Mrs. Baker, but I've done
a lot of work on myself, so I know that
none of this has to do with Jordan proposing.
He is the only part of my life
that is working right now.
Everything else is--
[Clears throat]
I just need a therapist who's gonna help me
navigate my day without meds,
so, um--
so maybe we're not the right fit for--
Before you call it quits,
I'd like to try one more thing.
It's a technique called EMDR.
Now, I found it to be quite helpful
with some patients who've experienced
past trauma.
Would you be open to trying that?
Yeah.
As long as we're not picking apart my engagement,
I'll try anything.
OK.
What's in the box?
I don't know, but I do always wonder
what happened to Rita.
Y'all housekeeper?
Didn't she move back to Miami
to be closer to family?
What's in the box?
Laura: Oh, good. You guys are all here. Come. Sit.
When you and your sister were born,
things were hectic.
Everything your dad said was the wrong thing,
and everything he did got on my nerves.
Oh, that tracks.
I was hormonal, and--
And Dad was being Dad.
Yes, and that, and then when I was
at my absolute limit,
he gave me these.
He wrote you both letters to read
after your college graduation.
Somehow he knew that I would be
less overwhelmed with the present
if I knew he was already thinking about the future,
your futures, so, Liv,
I wanted to give you yours early
since you've been having trouble with your book...
I just--but--
and to stop you from whining,
I am giving you yours now, too.
Man: ♪ Everlasting road ♪
♪ My mother, son, and Holy Ghost ♪
This is a family meeting. I shouldn't be here.
And I asked you to be here for a reason.
When Billy asked you to play for him
and to come live with us,
he wrote about his feelings surrounding that time,
and he wrote about you.
Man: ♪ Oooh, what remains... ♪
I don't want any of you to feel
like you have to open these messages from Billy now.
You can--
Or you can open them right away,
but it's up to each of you to decide.
Man: ♪ Oooh oooh ♪
I can't accept this.
It's not an award, Spencer. It's a gift.
You don't think you deserve
to have something of Billy's?
It ain't that.
It's just, shouldn't this go to Jordan
or Olivia or somebody that's--
Family?
I know we're family,
but this is real personal.
It's his private thoughts.
It'd be different if he wrote me a letter, but--
If Billy had known you when you were born,
he would've.
What about you?
Did he write you a letter?
Maybe you should keep it.
I talk to Billy every day.
I don't need a letter.
He would want you to have it.
I look like Julie Andrews.
You got me out here looking like Maritza Poppins.
Now come on.
First of all, do not sleep on Mary Poppins.
The whole button-up thing, she ate that.
Secondly, whole point of this outfit
is to make you look innocent.
-I am innocent. -I know that.
Outfit's for the jury.
[Sighs]
And I guess that blazer is just for me.
Better hold on to that for later.
Look. Stop looking at me like that and focus.
Prosecutor, remember?
Mm-hmm.
-OK. No. No, no, no. -What? What?
No. We have to get started, all right?
I know Miko is not joking around with her team.
They are gonna come for you.
I'm talking full-on character assassination,
so starting now, you got to take this seriously.
The bitch stabbed me, Coop.
It doesn't get any more serious than that, OK?
I am just done letting her turn me
into this person who never smiles
or laughs and is always scared,
and I'm just--I'm tired of giving her that power.
And this right here is the part
where we take some of that power back.
[Paper rustles]
[Inhales]
[Exhales]
Billy: First time I saw you, I thought you looked like a melon.
Thanks, Dad.
Billy: Then I started to cry
because I never seen such a beautiful melon.
I told your mother that it was my allergies.
I think she bought it.
Yeah. Sure, she did. Yeah.
So don't tell your sister this.
You're my favorite twin.
I knew it.
You can stop celebrating,
because I know that's what you're doing.
Just yesterday, I ran out to get you some toys,
but all you wanted to do was hold on to my finger.
You squeezed it so tight,
and it made me proud because,
even though now you're just a melon,
by the time you read this letter,
you're gonna be a man,
and I'm sure people are gonna...
try to get you to think that you need to be
just like me, but I'm not perfect...
Heh.
Perfect is overrated, Dad.
You tried your best.
and even when I try my best,
I may let you down, but it's during those times
that I want you to remember
that you've always been strong,
even since birth, and when other people,
they let you down,
just... listen to yourself.
Have the strength of your convictions
and remember,
I believe in you, son, now and always.
When, exactly, did you meet
defendant Miko Scott?
Girl, I don't know, like, two years ago.
She started stalking me,
like, long before I met her.
That's quite the allegation.
Can you prove it?
Yeah. My boy Jerome, who was a former waiter
at Slauson Cafe, got receipts proving
that Miko was in the joint at the same time as me
long before we had our first fan meeting.
If you suspected Miko was stalking you,
why meet up with her?
She won a fan contest my producer set up,
so I had lunch with her.
So it was an act of charity.
I mean, you were just being nice...
It's known to happen.
and I'm supposed to believe that
your kindness had nothing to do
with the fact that Miko ran
your largest fan page.
I mean, I think she had, what,
a million followers.
That's a million more eyes on your music,
and all you had to do was have lunch?
Whoa, boy, does it pay to be nice.
I didn't know who Miko was
or that she ran a fan page.
I just thought she was an awkward girl
who needed a friend, and I was being nice,
and she repaid my kindness with a knife to the gut.
Prosecution ask that the witness
hit her up top
because you saw the trap I laid,
and you skipped right over it.
Ask me another one, you might see me double-Dutch.
-OK. Take the bar. -Ha ha! OK.
Stop. Ha ha ha! Let's go.
Jordan: Coach, hey, you busy?
No? Good. We got to talk.
Did you need me for this,
or did you want to carry both sides
of the conversation by yourself?
I'm sorry. I'm just a little--
Fired up?
Yes.
What's going on?
I need to take charge more
and have the strength of my convictions.
Well, good. I'm all for it.
Were you thinking about the championship game?
No. I mean, yes, but, um, heh,
that's not why I'm here.
I'm here about the draft.
Aha. What about it?
Since I became a Heisman finalist,
every time I answer the phone,
it's another reporter asking if I'm gonna
enter the draft and play for my dad's old team.
So you're feeling the pressure of folks
wanting you to be your old man.
No. For once, it's not about the pressure.
It's about me.
It's about what I want, and I've never seriously
considered, you know, the draft,
but--but now I guess
I'm just asking for some advice.
Look. I'm not surprised you got the NFL knocking--
you've been killing it-- but the season ain't over,
and what you do in the championship game,
that's what'll determine your draft stock,
so I need for you to lock in.
Once the game is played, we can have a real chat
about the draft, and I will support
whatever decision you make.
Deal?
Yeah. Yeah.
Man: ♪ Taken by a fire in the hills ♪
♪ I can't take my eyes... ♪
OK, Coach.
What you got for me?
Billy: Gracie's kid is moving in. Ha!
Am I out of my mind for making this decision?
I asked myself that same question.
I'm not much of a writer, but it's not like
I can talk about the, uh, full truth
of this situation.
I just hope I'm making the right decision.
I ain't the boy's father, you know.
He needs one.
He needs guidance, at least.
I don't know.
I just don't want him to lose his way or himself.
There's way too much potential there.
Yo, where you off to?
I got to check with you now?
No, but it'd be nice to know
since you staying here.
I'm going out.
You need coordinates, latitude, longitude?
Yo, yo, you could chill
with all that attitude, bruh.
Look. The reason I ask is just because
I wanted to see what time
you was gonna be back for dinner.
I'll be back. Happy?
[Door opens]
Oh...
Ahh...
Ha ha ha!
Yeah.
Bottom line is, it can be hard
taking in a teenage boy.
[Exhales]
What is his problem?
The thing is,
teenage boys are basically feral.
Hold up. You just call me feral?
They smell disgusting.
OK. I know you're talking about Jordan now.
They run around eating up everything,
constantly pissed off.
Maybe you are talking about me.
So you're saying I got a wild animal
in my house, huh, Coach?
OK. If I were looking at this situation
from a different perspective,
I would say, "You can do this.
"You are smart.
You're capable. You're sexy as hell."
Wait, what?
Ha ha! You're Billy Baker, baby.
I mean, you was in the NFL.
You got a badass wife. You live in a mansion.
You a superstar.
If anybody can figure out this badass kid, you can.
OK. Aight.
That's insulting, and it's not helpful.
Yeah.
I should probably talk to Gracie, as well.
Yeah.
I mean, if I'm gonna help him,
then I should definitely hit up
the one person who knows him best.
Hmm.
Maybe you on to something, old man.
So what'd you think?
I didn't really see you walk in,
so I'm not sure what part
of the mock trial you caught.
I saw enough.
Yeah. I mean, Patience, she was hype at times,
but I think I can work to tone her down.
You focused exclusively on softball questions.
That's not true.
You didn't ask about the night of
or their uneven power dynamic,
and you barely grazed the conflict of interest
in their relationship.
I asked Patience about Miko's one million followers,
and when she pushed back and said
that she was just being nice, I...
agreed that she was just being nice.
Do you think Miko's team will be so generous?
They're going to tear her apart.
[Knocks on door]
-Hi. -Hi.
Um, I spoke to Liv, and she said that--
Oh, I didn't read my dad's letter.
-What? -Nothing.
You first. Uh, what did Olivia say?
She's staying with Spencer
and that you had the beach house to yourself,
so I thought you might want company.
Ah. Of course I do. Of course I do.
You know, if you showing up
is from going to therapy,
then I say you go 5 times a week.
Why did you propose to me?
Because I love you, obviously.
You proposed to Simone,
so do you love me more than you loved her,
or did you love her just as much
but then, then she did something
and the way you felt about her changed?
Of course my feelings changed.
Layla, I fell in love with you.
Where is all this coming from, babe?
Uh, I was just wondering.
In therapy, Dr. Gibbs wants to try, um, EMDR.
I don't know--
Eye movement desensitization reprocessing.
It's where they use lights and eye movement
to detach trauma from memories.
It was one of the things that I researched
when I was trying to...help you out.
Do you ever get, um, sick of it,
just, like, needing to take care of me
all the time?
Not at all, never, OK,
because I don't have to do anything.
I want to,
and we take care of each other, right?
Right. Of course we do.
OK.
Hey, thanks for meeting me.
Keep your thanks.
I want an apology for wasting my time.
I'm sorry I was a couple seconds late, OK?
Seconds? I'm talking about years,
years I poured into my brother,
all the sacrifices I made
to give him a better life,
and with one conversation, you wasted all of it.
How dare you tell him to quit.
I didn't.
I just helped him realize
that he don't actually like football.
So football is good enough for you,
but not for my brother?
It's not what he wants.
Look. If you just--
He doesn't know what he wants.
He's a kid, and just because
you got 3 psych credits to rub together
don't give you the right to derail his entire life.
I mean, since when are you a therapist?
You right. I'm not a therapist,
but I do care about your brother,
and I agree with you-- he is a kid,
so talk to him.
Don't just throw him away.
"Throw him away"?
Deion said you kicked him out.
[Exhales]
Is that what he told you?
-Hey. -Hey.
Do you mind if I keep watching this,
or did you want to talk more
about therapy or Simone?
Jordan, it's not a big deal, OK?
I was just curious, and, besides,
don't you think it's kind of rude
to talk about your ex-fiancee
in front of your new boyfriend Mac?
Ha ha ha.
Glen: I don't have to tell you,
Baker has been showing up big
all season long.
You can't blame the league
for wanting to scoop him up.
I agree.
I've spent a lot of time working closely with Jordan,
and the results are right there in his performance.
He is exceptional.
Mac: They'd be crazy not to want him...
OK. Should I be jealous?
but the truth is, college QBs going into the NFL early
have a significant failure rate.
I get coaches being excited about a player,
but I think this one's a little premature.
The numbers don't lie.
Glen: That's a hot take, Coach.
This is real good. You make this?
What?
Nah. She didn't make it.
I picked it up right after I stopped
by South Crenshaw to talk to your sister.
I was worried about you
because you said she put you out,
but it ain't go down like that, did it?
So now you're calling me a liar.
No one is calling anyone a liar.
He just did!
Aye, watch your tone, man.
She's just trying to help you,
and so am I, D.
If your sister didn't throw you out,
you need to patch things up with her.
Don't nobody walk out on family.
I'm still dealing with the last advice you gave me.
I ain't looking for more.
You ain't even listening to me.
My sister might not have thrown me out,
but she wanted me gone.
I ain't in the habit of staying where I'm not wanted,
so--you know what?-- I'm out.
OK. Deion, stop. Spencer, enough, OK?
We're gonna sit here, right,
and we're gonna finish this food,
and then we will figure it out
once everyone calms down.
[The Satellite Station's "Only Human" playing]
Billy: He's exhausted.
I can tell he's not getting much sleep.
Too stressed out, trying to hold everything in.
-What did I do? -What did I do?
Maybe I made a mistake.
Maybe I should send him home.
I brought him here. I have to fix this.
He's just a kid.
I have to do what's best for him, but...
"I can't just send him home because..."
all the problems he left behind
are still there.
Ohh, so what do I do?
Ha ha ha!
When she said it, it was obvious.
I'd been pacing back and forth all night,
and then Laura came to me, and she said...
Spencer, you don't have to
figure this out all on your own.
Come to bed.
Travis Rue: ♪ Just tryna keep my heart from breaking... ♪
Billy: And so I did, and we talked...
Rue: ♪ Rest now till the morning light... ♪
Billy: and in the morning, everything was clearer.
Rue: ♪ After all ♪
Too bright? I'll adjust it.
[Beeping]
-Is it better? -Yeah.
Um, how, exactly, does this work?
Well, we pick a memory,
and as you're talking me through it,
you follow the light in the bar
from left to right.
I was thinking we could work
on a memory about your mother.
Well, I've already spent a lot of time
working through my feelings around my mom, so--
Your mother suffered from severe depression,
and to get to the heart of why your depression
is no longer responding to medication,
we must discuss her.
At some point, you have to trust me.
Otherwise, I really can't help you.
[Beep]
Talk to me about the first time
you realized there was something wrong
with your mother.
I didn't realize. My dad told me.
You understood she was suffering
well before your father said a word, right?
Kids see everything,
so just take a deep breath...
OK, and follow the light, Layla.
[Whoosh]
Allow yourself to remember.
[Whoosh]
Tell me what you see, Layla.
It's dark. I'm in a hallway.
-Where? -The old house.
I'm, um, I'm 6,
and I'm standing in front of a door.
I can hear a woman crying. It's--
Mom?
Layla: and I can hear my dad.
[J.P. shouting]
I can't make out what he's saying,
but he sounds... angry.
I'm sorry.
[Clears throat]
Sorry. I can't. I need a break.
Still haven't read your pops' letter?
He wanted me to wait.
Your pops was always there for you
when you needed him, and now you're having
trouble with your book, you really think he'd want
some deadline he made up to stop him
from being there for you now?
You know, after my pops died,
I was scared to read the letters
he left for me, too.
How did you do it?
How did you work up the nerve to read it?
You reminded me that those letters
were a gift, a chance to hear his voice...
and that I was strong enough
to handle whatever was in them.
Did we have a meeting?
Thought I'd surprise you,
kind of like you surprised me
in that podcast interview.
The one where I was singing your praises?
The one where you told NFL coaches
that if they drafted me, there's
a significant chance that I'd wash out.
Jordan, I was talking about the failure rate
of college QBs in the league.
It's not personal. Those are just the numbers.
No. Those are the numbers
that you chose to highlight,
just like you couldn't help but slip in the fact
that all of my progress this season
was because of your hard work.
Jordan, you know that is not how I meant it.
Yes, it was,
just like you sabotaging my chances in the NFL
was actually about you not wanting to lose
your starting quarterback for next season, right?
Uh...look. I'm sorry.
Don't be.
Just consider it your final lesson, OK,
because whenever I decide
whether or not to enter the draft,
I--I'm only gonna be thinking about myself.
Gibbs: We're getting closer. Just try again.
What if I don't want to remember?
Trust me, Layla. You can do this.
Right. I want you to listen, OK?
[Beep]
I want you to hear what your parents are saying.
J.P.: Get up, Monica. Enough of this now.
Get out of bed.
Monica: I can't. I'm sorry. I just can't.
Just stop being selfish. We need you.
Do you think I want to be like this?
Gibbs: Push open the door, Layla. Go on.
Get out of bed. Enough of this.
Please. Get out of bed.
Gibbs: The memory will make sense, I promise.
Stop, please.
Do you think I want to be like this?
I don't know what to think anymore.
You could just say it because I can see it.
When--when you look at me,
there used to be this light in your eyes,
and now... I feel empty...
[Sobs]
all the time, and...I--
I just do things,
and I-- I show up places--
I don't know why-- and I talk,
and it sounds like someone else.
I don't know who I am anymore
other than--than your wife and her mom.
I don't know where the rest of it went.
Hey...hey...
then let us help you, yeah,
but, baby, please, please get out of bed.
Get up and get out of bed, OK?
I need you. Layla needs you.
Mom?
There's nothing...
[Sniffles]
not for you...
[Sniffles]
not for her.
[Sniffles]
There's nothing left.
[Sniffles]
Gibbs: You're OK.
You're back here with me, Layla.
Does it make sense now?
Yes.
Ms. Robinson, you stated that you
tried to be a friend to Miko Scott.
Is that how you'd classify your relationship--friends?
Um, well, she liked my music,
and she really liked me,
and I could tell she was lonely and sad,
so, yeah, at first,
I was happy to be a friend to her.
And yet you posted a vicious video
on social media where you verbally
attacked and humiliated the defendant,
the same girl that you just said
was sad and lonely.
Is that how you treat your friends, Ms. Robinson?
The only reason I posted that video
was because Miko was spying on me.
She planted a camera in my studio,
and then she leaked the footage.
Well, you can't prove that the defendant
planted or leaked anything,
but since you brought it up,
let's talk about it.
Was this leaked footage in question
of you kissing Skye Hall?
And, for the jury's benefit, Skye handled social media
for Patience and was also a friend of yours, correct?
Where are you going with this?
Well, it seems like there's a pattern here, no?
I mean, Miko really liked you,
and Skye kissed you.
It feels like you're in the habit
of having friends perform labor for you
by dangling the promise of sex.
OK. Hold up. So I'm a ho now?
Are you kidding me?
You know, you sound like a jealous girlfriend.
No. Miko's team is absolutely gonna use
your sexual history to discredit you.
You can't be so easy to bait.
Hmm.
I never used Miko's feelings
to get her to do work for me.
In fact, once I realized she was obsessed,
I cut her off.
That's when she stabbed me.
You mentioned that,
this claim that Miko stabbed you,
but there's no footage of the event.
I don't need footage. I have this.
Well, for the jury's benefit,
why don't you walk us through it?
What happened that night?
The bell rang. I thought it was y--
I thought it was someone else.
I opened the door, and then she stabbed me.
-Miko stabbed you? -Yes.
So she had the knife in her hand. You saw it.
Yes.
So the bell rings, you open the door,
you see the knife, and what do you do?
-You just stand there? -No. I--I tried to run.
You just showed us your scar.
It was on your belly, not your back.
I didn't run, but I--I tried to,
and I--I--
So you open the door,
this crazy, dangerous girl
that you've been trying to get away from
is standing there with a knife.
No. Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Wait. Maybe I-- maybe I didn't see it.
Maybe Miko pulled it out, like--
So now she pulled out the knife.
Yes. I mean, no.
No, no, no, no. No, no, no. No.
Mrs. Robinson, these are simple questions.
Did you see the knife, or did you not?
Did you stand there, or did you run?
Did she stab you in your belly,
or did she stab you in your back?
I don't know.
-Did she stab you at all? -I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know.
[Knocks on door]
Didn't you say there was some sort
of bandit making the rounds?
Bandits don't usually knock.
What are you doing here?
Spencer: I invited her.
You can talk to her.
I ain't in the mood for another lecture.
And I didn't come here to get disrespected
by the kid I raised.
Olivia: Why don't we just hear Spencer out?
Spencer: Sit, please, both of you.
I know you want what's best for Deion, Tasha,
but you don't get to decide what that is.
You don't get to decide who he is.
Right now, I do. He's a kid.
Yeah, but he's almost a man,
so you got a small window to decide
who you want to be in his life.
Are you gonna be another family member
he don't speak to, or are you gonna be
the sister that listens
when he tells you what he needs?
Football was giving him panic attacks
every day, Tasha.
You didn't tell me that.
Didn't think you'd care.
You're my brother. Of course I care.
Even if I never play again?
I don't care about football.
I care about you.
Only reason I've been on you is because
I want you to have a better life
than what I've been able to give you.
You deserve so much better, Deion.
I don't care about money
or living in some big, fancy house.
When everybody else left, you stuck by me.
They don't come better than you, Tash.
Come here.
Mm. OK. We're going home.
You're gonna talk,
and this time, I'll listen.
Come on. I'll help you pack.
-Spencer-- -Don't mention it.
Just thank my 3 psych credits.
Caught that, smart mouth.
Y'all go ahead.
-Thank you. -For what?
For talking through this with me.
I wouldn't have figured it out without you.
Your pops was right.
Billy: My beautiful baby girl...
when you read this, you won't be a baby--
ha ha!--but, as your father,
I reserve all-time rights
in calling you that. I mean,
for all I know, you'll be reading this
when you're 6 years old,
and, you know, I wouldn't be surprised
if you graduated college in no time at all.
Just to try to slow down a little bit.
I don't want to upset your brother,
so don't tell him I told you this,
but I already know you're my favorite twin.
I knew it.
You've got these big, bright eyes,
and when you look up at me,
I swear you can understand
every word I'm saying.
Lady Bri: ♪ I'm here for you ♪
♪ When the road is long... ♪
OK. Listen up.
You are destined for great things.
I know there are gonna be times
when you don't believe this,
when you're not gonna believe yourself,
but please just remember I have and will always
believe in you.
You know, you're--
you're gonna graduate in a few years.
It's gonna be really painful
for me to let you go.
I'm gonna have to share your life
with the rest of the world
because they need it.
I'm not gonna want to, but I will
because I love you so much, baby girl.
I love you now and always.

We can't let Patience do it.
I mean, she was forgetting little details,
she was second-guessing herself,
and she completely just broke down.
I did that to her.
We can't let her take the stand.
We have to figure out
something else to put Miko away.
I'm guessing that you're here
to rebut Coach McClelland's comments.
No, no. I'm actually glad that Coach Mac
squashed the draft chatter, you know?
Honestly, I just want to
finish out my college run,
keep playing for Coach Kenny.
He built this team from the ground up.
He's the reason why we're playing in the championship,
but, Glen, what makes Coach Kenny exceptional
is that he cares about us as people.
He's not just a numbers guy.
He cares about us as people,
and he's not just a numbers guy.
This has got to be the meanest
break-up speech I've ever heard.
You know, you could've just stuck to the classics,
like, "I want to see other coaches,"
"We're just in different places,"
"It's not you. It's me."
Oh, it's definitely him.
Oh, should I be worried that you have all those
just locked and loaded up here?
Hey, talk to me. What's going on?
Dr. Gibbs helped me figure out
why the meds stopped working.
OK. What happened?
Our engagement did.
Oh, the thought of marrying me
made you that unhappy?
No, but it did bring to light
that I still have all these unresolved issues
around my mom just sitting inside me
waiting to go off like landmines,
and when you proposed, it kind of triggered them,
and that's why the meds stopped working.
OK.
Being married exacerbated
my mom's mental health issues.
She lost sight of who she was,
she felt empty,
and my dad didn't know how to help her.
He didn't know how to pull her out of the darkness.
You don't want to marry me.
That's why you've been questioning
my feelings for you.
That's why you've been dragging your feet
every step of planning for this--
for this wedding, and I get it, OK?
I do. I sprung this proposal on you, Layla,
so...I will give you an out.
I'd give you anything, because I love you.
I guess I was scared that marrying you
would mean that we would turn into my parents,
but my mom didn't know how to ask for help,
and my dad didn't quite know how to help her
on his own,
and, Jordan, you've been there
through the darkest periods of my life,
and you still look at me like...that.
You're not my dad,
and I don't want to be my mom,
and I don't want an out, OK?
I meant it when I said yes.
I love you.
I just need more time.
I don't want to bring all this baggage
into our marriage.
Come here.
Take all the time you need, OK?

it was like getting him back.
And turning in the book will be like losing him
all over again.
Yeah, but his letter made me realize
