[Louise] Previously on Big Shot.
-[crowd] Holly, Holly! -[Sherilyn] You are looking at
the brand-new head coach of the Belford Bloodhounds.
-The boys' team? -[Sherilyn] Mm-hmm.
Surprise.
[Emma] So, somebody created a monster version of Louise?
[Samantha] How do they have time for that?
School just started and I'm already behind in, like, every class.
So, we need to find the culprit ourselves and confront them.
I-I might be able to help you out.
[Sherilyn] Trevor! I got your new briefs.
-Mom, Mom! I have a guest! -Is that?
Destiny.
Ms. Thomas.
[Louise] Wait a minute. You play play?
Why did you keep it from us? Why did Coach?
[Emma] As soon as I was in a uniform,
and you had a clipboard in your hand, you became a monster.
[Marvyn] Come on. I wasn't that bad.
You're just too sensitive.
I wonder where I got that from.
[Destiny] So, I saw you talking to Nicky Hoops tonight.
You clearly like him. Ask him out.
[Louise] I was maybe gonna text him.
[phone chimes]
[knocking]
[door opens]
Emma.
Emma, wake up.
What? What's wrong?
Nothing's wrong. Do you know what time it is?
[sighs] Too early to have a conversation.
It's 4:26 a.m.
Seventeen years ago, a little someone was born exactly at 4:26 a.m.
And do you know who that person was?
[Emma] Mmm. The same person who wants to go back to sleep.
Seventeen years ago, at 4:26 a.m.,
I wanted to go back to sleep too, but I didn't.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday.
[chuckles] Wow.
-Dad, you really went to all this trouble? -Mm-hmm.
-Wait, do I smell… -Meat loaf? Yes, you do.
-Yep. That is what I thought I smelled. -There we go.
Six pounds, four ounces of meat loaf, by the way.
Uh, that's a lot of meat loaf.
Your exact birth weight.
Uh-huh. You do realize that it's breakfast, Dad?
Now look at that.
We are gonna have the best day ever, you and me.
There's a day after a six-pound, four-ounce meat loaf?
Yes. You ready for this?
You and I are going to the La Jolla Adventure Park together.
-Oh. -I thought you'd be more excited.
Um, yes. I was talking to the girls about maybe going to the beach tonight.
You could go to the beach with the girls anytime. This is gonna be you and me.
-How fun will that be? -But--
It's gonna be the best day of your life. I promise. We'll go right after school.
[rhythmic clapping]
[crowd cheers]
[buzzer sounds]
I can't believe he woke you up at 4:00 in the morning. That is so mean.
Yeah, like borderline, "let's call child protective services" mean.
-They're not open at 4:00 in the morning. -Why?
I'm sorry I can't go to the beach with you guys tonight.
I wish you were coming to the theme park with us.
-Oh, we are! -Samantha.
-You are? -Oops.
Wait, so you guys are really coming?
Everyone except for Mouse because she is visiting her Aunt Carmelita this weekend.
Your dad bought us tickets, and he told us to meet you there,
but not to say anything.
Because, Samantha, it was supposed to be a surprise.
[Emma chuckles]
Happy birthday.
Uh, thank you. Who are you?
Some jerk who just tried to cut.
No, just to wish you a happy birthday.
Uh-huh. How'd you know it was my birthday?
I know all the big ones.
You know, Lincoln, Jesus, Emma Korn.
By the way, you should know theme parks are pretty lame.
[Emma] Hmm.
I'm Jackson Hoover, by the way. Hope you have a special day.
You know what'd make it really super, extra special is
if you hoovered over to the back of the line.
-Get him. -That's great.
Suze, thank you so much.
By the way, you were great in Beth Macbeth last year.
Oh. Thanks.
Who is this?
Okay, he was legit flirting with you.
No. He was just trying to cut to the front of the line.
-Mm-hmm. Yep. -By flirting with me.
[school bell rings]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I have your graded midterms.
Some of you did really well and should be very proud.
Some of you could have done a little bit better.
Some of you should have done a lot better.
[chattering]
Uh, so what do-- What do you got, like, planned this weekend?
Uh, Emma's birthday later today, and then nothing.
So, technically, you're free.
'Cause I-- 'Cause I was wondering, uh, if you would wanna, like…
-Study? -Study?
Yeah. Like a-- Like a study-- Like a date. Like a--
But like a study date. Like we, like, we choose, like, a date to study to…
-For the… -Are you asking me out?
-No, I-- Well-- -No?
I-- Well, unless that works for you? Like…
[school bell rings]
I gotta get to class.
[Trevor] Wanna…
God. [groans] "Unless that works for you"?
Idiot.
"Unless that works for you." That boy!
Maybe. Just depends on what my buddies wanna do.
I'm sorry.
I know I screwed up on the midterm, but I promise I will do better on the final--
Samantha, I gotta turn these grades in to Ms. Thomas.
Right now, you have a D in this class.
At least it's not an F?
You know, if you don't get your grades up, you can't play basketball.
No, I know. I know that.
Yeah.
Here's what we're gonna do.
This is an extra credit assignment.
It's due today at five o'clock.
If you do a good job on this, and I mean a really good job,
I'm gonna let you by with a C.
Okay. Thank you.
Good job though.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
[chattering]
Marvyn Korn, I am impressed.
Yeah, you planned this birthday all by yourself?
Yeah, I had to. My assistant thought she was too big for me, so she quit.
-You could hit him. I'll look away. -Thank you.
Wait, okay. So then, what's the special thing at six o'clock?
Well, it's sort of a secret, but, um…
Have you guys heard about the sports bar there at the La Jolla Adventure Park?
No. But go on.
Guess who is the new inductee on the Wall of Fame?
-I don't know sports. I have no idea. -Ooh. That's a good one.
-Me! -Oh.
Oh, right.
-Yeah. -Wait, hang on.
You're going to celebrate yourself on Emma's birthday?
No, I'm not.
[sighs] Emma, she doesn't look at me the same way as she used to.
When she was a little girl, she'd go to all the press conferences with me,
and she'd sit on my lap.
You know, and this one time, this jackass reporter said,
"Hey, Marvyn Korn. Why'd you call that time-out?"
And she grabbed the microphone from him and said,
"Because he's my daddy, and he's the best coach in the whole wide world."
[both] Aw.
And I just-- I don't think she thinks that anymore.
-Come on, Marvyn. Emma loves you. -Mm-hmm.
I know she loves me, but she's not proud of me anymore.
I want her to be proud of me. I want her to have that feeling back.
-Well, that's lovely. -Yeah.
Yeah, and I need you both there at 5:45, 'cause this is important.
-Tonight? Yeah, I actually-- -I got a root canal tonight.
-My back has been-- -So, just added it tonight.
Ha, ha, ha.
Okay, honestly, Trevor is going through some things.
As his mother, I need to be there for him.
All right. You don't have a Trevor that's going through something, so you be there.
-The girls are gonna be there too. -[sighs] I really want a Trevor.
Hang on. The girls are gonna be there?
Is Samantha gonna be there? Because she owes me a paper.
I don't want her on a roller coaster until I have the paper.
-Yeah, okay. -No, I'm serious, Marvyn.
I hear you, Holly. That's what "yeah, okay" means.
Samantha. Hey, you're not going to the park
until you finish that assignment Holly told you about. All right?
It's done.
That's my point guard. You seen Emma?
[chuckles]
-You look so cute in your uniform. -[Nick] Thank you.
So, same place tonight?
-Sounds good. -[Marvyn] Ava.
-Hey, Coach-- -Don't even think about canceling.
I need you there.
[Ava sighs]
[sighs] Sounds like you already have a date tonight.
No.
[phone rings]
Took you long enough to get back to me.
My bad. And can I make it up to you by saying hi in person?
Maybe.
Hey, don't be late today. Okay?
I want you right outside the entrance when we come through. Got it?
-Where's Emma? Have you seen Emma? -Nope.
[sighs]
-[Marvyn] Hey, birthday girl. -[Emma] Hmm? Oh.
Okay.
That's me.
And look who I am. See, watch this.
You don't actually expect us to wear them?
[ticket taker] Fast pass. Go ahead.
[Marvyn] Hold on. Hold on. Hold on!
-Hey, ready? -Oh, my…
-Dad. -Okay, ready?
-Dad! -Are you ready?
No.
-Surprise! -[Emma] Oh, my God!
Dad, I can't believe you did this!
-You told her, didn't you? -What?
Well…
You're not a very good actress, young lady.
I mean, you call yourself a drama student?
Honey, I was just-- I'm just kidding.
-Think I'm a terrible actress now? Ha. -[chuckles]
-Um, nice shirts. -Yeah.
No, Coach. Like, I just really wish you had gotten us some.
Oh, yeah?
[Destiny] What?
-[child 1] Yeah! -[child 2] Choo! Choo!
Come on, crew. You girls look great! Girls!
Okay. All aboard!
Best part, no line.
Wow. Can't imagine why.
Uh, yeah, Coach. I don't think we meet the height requirement.
Yeah. You know, I think we're probably too tall for this one.
-[Ava] Hmm. -[Samantha] I think I babysat that kid.
[gasps] Hey, the Titan Twister!
-[Louise] Oh, my God! -[Destiny] Okay, let's go!
Where?
But none of that matters when you're screaming.
I heard it's designed to make the blood drain from your brain.
[Louise] And it pulls enough G's to make your eyelids freeze to your skull.
[riders screaming]
Okay. I'm not going on that. Um…
But you guys go, and I'll wait for you at that exit there, okay?
-Dad, it's a really long line. -It's okay. It's okay.
But after this, we gotta get right back on schedule because I have a full day here.
I was gonna do the large La Jolla Lemonades,
then the carousel, then bathroom break.
But I guess if we do small La Jolla Lemonades,
we do carousel, move bathroom break,
then we'll have time to do the "make your own sundaes." Okay, good. Good.
We've got a lot to get done by six o'clock, 'cause I have a big surprise--
-Fadeaways Sports Bar, yes. -Yeah.
-Yep. Got it. -Cool.
-Thank you, Dad. -Me too.
Are you guys insane? I'm not gonna give him my phone.
[Louise] Good luck on the corkscrew then.
All right, girls. I'll be right here by the exit sign!
Hope you're not offended.
[chuckles] Please. I can't get out of mine quick enough.
[Ava] Okay. Whoo.
I have something to share.
-[clears throat] -Go for it!
[chuckles] Trevor tried to ask me out.
-What? -[Destiny] Wait.
Um, technically, he asked me out on a study date.
Well, you obviously can't go out with him.
-Why not? -Ask out fail.
-He's a total loser. -Okay.
Do not listen to her. I think you should give him a chance.
Yeah, he'd be a great first boyfriend.
Wait, wait, wait. First boyfriend? You've never had one before?
Where have you been?
At an all-girls school.
What about the fact that he's Ms. Thomas's son?
[chuckles] Wait, he's the principal's son?
It pretty much guarantees that you'll never get expelled.
Unless you break up. And then you'll definitely get expelled.
Exactly.
I just simply cannot imagine Ms. Thomas as a mom.
What do you think she's like after hours?
I saw her on a walk once. It made me feel weird.
Yeah.
[beeping on cell phone]
[Sherilyn] Oh, no. You better get your feet off that desk.
All right.
All right. Can we go now? 'Cause I beat this game, like, three times, so…
Your game is what needs fixing.
-What? -Nothing.
But I will say that you are a handsome, smart, sweet young man
-who chickened out today with Destiny. -Oh, please stop, Mom. Wait.
-Are you spying on me? -It's called mothering.
Are you gonna call that girl and ask her out, or what?
I don't wanna talk about this with you.
Okay.
But I text her. Okay?
-You did? -Yeah.
She didn't respond.
Oh. So your solution is to mope?
That's a good plan. Moping gets it done.
Although, if your father had done that, you would've never been born.
-Oh, my God. -That man was a man of action.
-Oh, my gosh. Mom. -[Sherilyn] Mm-hmm.
Come on, boy.
[riders screaming]
[rider] Yeah!
Yo, use your left as a guide.
No, no, no, no! No!
Your right hand is your dominant hand, right?
Okay, you gotta guide with your left hand. Try it again.
Guide with your left hand.
No! No, no, no, no, no.
Here. Try again. Try again. This is the guide hand, right?
Oh, man. You're Coach Korn!
Yeah.
I came to see you at Fadeaways.
Can I get a picture?
Sure. Okay. Here. Just gotta hurry.
My daughter's on a ride right now. How's that?
-Smile! -Yeah.
-Wait, is it your birthday? -No.
-But it says-- -I know what it says, just--
Can we get one without it?
Here. Here.
-Good? -Yeah.
Here we go. Smile!
[shutter clicks]
Okay, good.
You try. Go! Go ahead.
No!
[Jackson] Oh, step aside. Coming through. Coming through with the pass.
Guys, guys, thank you. On your right.
-On your left, sorry. -How long have we been waiting?
Oh, man.
-Way too long. Right? -Oh, look. It's our favorite line cutter.
What are you doing here? I thought you said theme parks are lame.
No, no, they are. When you do them wrong.
-Do them wrong? How do you do them wrong? -Yeah.
You wait in line.
Follow along, please.
Thank you, guys. Stay cool.
-Here you go. -Okay.
[Jackson] All right.
[sighs]
-That was amazing. -Thank you.
Your parents got you an insta-pass?
No. They got me a 3D printer, which got me the pass.
So, yeah.
Oh, my God.
All right, kid. I'll see you at Fadeaways at 6:00 p.m. Don't be late.
And remember, B-E-E-F.
Balance, eyes, elbow and follow-through.
-Got it? -Got it.
-Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over. -It's Holly.
Hey, Holly. You on your way?
No, not yet. Listen, you told me that you wouldn't take Samantha
until she turned in her paper.
What? What do you mean? She told me she did.
Well… [sighs] ...she lied.
She didn't lie to me.
Okay, well, she's posting pictures from the park and I don't have a paper. So…
All right. I'll take care of this. I'll see you soon.

I think that, like, my eyes actually did stick to my skull.
Where is my dad?
I swear to God, if he lost my phone…
I told you.
Well, we obviously can't wait for him
-because The Slayer is waiting for us. -Exactly.
-But we told him we would meet him here. -But we got out early.
What if we go get in line for The Slayer,
and you and Jackson wait here for your dad?
How about the front of the line? Look at that.
-Okay. I like this guy. -[Destiny] What? I…
-Are you-- Are you cool if we go? -Yeah.
-Have fun, kids. -[Ava] All right.
Who's your least favorite out of all of 'em?
It's gotta be--
What?
"Meet Coach Marvyn Korn at his induction to the Wall of Fame.
Fadeaways Sports Bar, six o'clock."
We know where your dad's gonna be. Wall of Faming it.
I can't believe it. He's done it again.
-What? -He has to make everything about himself.
Today's not about my birthday.
It's so that he can sign autographs and be celebrated.
Screw this. Let's not wait for him. Let's go to The Slayer.
Or…
Do you trust me?
-Not even a little bit. -No?
-Let's go. -Come on. Come on.
Hey!
Hey! Yo!
Did you see a group of girls come out that exit?
Well, if you could be a bit more specific?
-Who's that boy? -[attendant] I don't know, sir.
But for 24.99, you can have an 8-by-10.
24.99? That's--
Or, if you'd like, for 59.99,
you can put it on a key chain, put it on a T-shirt, coffee mug--
All right. Just put it on my credit card. Give me the 8-by-10.
If you'd like, you can give a 10% tip, a 15% tip, a 20% tip.
Wow, he really likes that stuff.
Of course, he likes it. Everyone likes it. It's cotton candy.
Never had it.
Like, ever?
You guys, I'm a world-class athlete. We don't eat sugar.
I'm pretty sure that's not true.
Yeah. I mean, I eat sugar all the time.
And then, like, you see.
I meant the "world-class athlete" part.
But when you were a kid and went to an amusement park--
I didn't.
What? You've never been to an amusement park?
It's not a big deal.
No, it is a big deal! You never forget your first amusement park.
-[Louise] Look! -Ava, you're picking the next ride.
-Thank you. -Yeah.
Wait. "Meet and greet Coach Marvyn Korn."
He's doing a meet and greet on Emma's birthday.
Yeah. Emma's gonna kill him.
So that's his big six o'clock surprise?
Why didn't they ask me? I'm more famous than he is.
Why don't we put some cotton candy in that mouth?
[Destiny] Hey, dude.
We have a few hours. I just wanna show Ava a good time.
Poor Emma.
What?
-You do this. -I'm trying!
Follow me.

Wow. All right.

I don't wanna be like weird or--

She's got-- She's just so aggressive.

Especially the "yes" part, if that's true.

Still pissed about your dad?
Should've known he wouldn't change.

You know? And you're enjoying the best view of La Jolla

You just don't understand.
He's trying to make up for 17 years in one night.
And he can't even do that without making it all about him.
Right.
Hey, Coach. We'd love to get started.
I got the local news here, and they're on a tight--
We're not starting till Emma gets here.
Sure. Okay. Copy that. You're the clock wiz, right? 1.9 seconds.

I got up at 3:00. I got you T-shirts made.
I invited your friends, and this is how you thank me?
By not showing up to the big event?
You mean this event that you planned for yourself?
I thought you might be too busy signing autographs to miss me.
No! It was a birthday party for you!
Oh, really? What did they serve? Marvyn Korn beef sliders?
That's a low blow.
For the last two years, you've said that I'd been an embarrassment to you.
