Yo, I got you a coffee.
Thanks, man.
What the hell?
You see anything?
Look!
Oh, shit.
Shit. He's still alive! Call 911!
You all right, buddy?
Oh, shit.
Help. Hurry up!
Help me.
Initially responsive on scene, but his mental stats worsened en route.
Vitals labile, significant blood loss.
One, two, three.
Passing.
- Don't tell me to chill. - I'm sayin--
I said don't tell me to chill.
Okay. Pickups.
- Why'd you bring me here? - What you mean?
You trying to fucking set me up?
- Nobody knows about Boston. - You do.
Nigga, I know all your secrets.
Mr. Bradley? Detective Ken Smith, Palm Beach Sheriff's Department.
You're a lucky son of a bitch.
Doctor says that bullet stuck in the only spot in your skull that won't kill you.
Any idea who did this to you?
Said it's close range. You must have noticed something.
Any details at all?
Don't know.
Right. So, you don't know...
or you don't want me to know.
Do what you gotta do, but I ain't telling you shit.
I'll take care of this on my own.
And congratulations on your new 40 million dollar contract.
It's crazy, right?
Um, yeah, I'm just-- I'm super thankful to...
Uh, sorry.
I'm, uh, just really excited to get back to practice.
Um...
I, uh-- I gotta take this.
Sorry. Thank you, guys.
Motherfucker, you there?
I hear you breathing.
Yo, man. What's-- [chuckles] What's good?
You shot my fucking eye out is what's good.
But you can't even kill a nigga right. You should have made sure I was dead.
I don't know what you're talking about, man.
I'm alive.
I'm alive and I'm coming for your ass.
It's between you and me.
You hear me, motherfucker?
You a dead man.
You were going 1000 miles an hour. What the hell was that about?
I wanted to get home. Check on the baby. Send the sitter home.
I gotta take care of some shit.
- Hey, what's up? - What's up, Shay?
Aaron told us to come by.
Um. All right. What is this?
Brand new security system. You know, the good stuff.
Hey, hey, hey. Just take it downstairs. We'll set it up there.
All right.
- Aaron, babe. - Yeah.
- Why do we need a new security system? - Oh, don't worry. I got it taken care of.
Got what taken care of? You've been acting weird all day.
Yeah, it was just like crazy fans.
They're harassing me saying some reckless shit.
- Oh, my God. Are we safe? - Yes, baby, we're safe.
This is why I didn't tell you, I didn't want you to worry.
Well, did you tell the team?
Yeah, okay?
But I just got Fish and Ortiz, they're gonna beef up the security system.
Just extra precaution, okay? Everything's fine. I promise.
Got the results of your end-of-season physical.
- Ankle looks good. - Yeah, it feels good.
But we did a checkup on that shoulder and it's not good.
What?
Here.
This is a tear in your labrum.
What do you mean?
This is the shoulder that went out against Miami?
Yeah, I mean, it took a hit, but it's fine.
It's not. We should have that fixed.
- You mean like surgery? - Yeah.
Can't you just, like, shoot it up with something?
No, the shoulder will keep popping out.
The only way to go is to get in and sew it back together.
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
We're gonna set you up for surgery
with Brady's guy.
Get it done quick. Next two weeks. Right into rehab.
You'll be ready for training camp.
You missed six games last season.
Aaron?
- Aaron, are you listening to me? - Yeah, sounds good.
Where the fuck are you?
In your head, motherfucker.
New phone. New number.
Thanks.
Everything okay?
Yeah, um. Nah, people get my number. They call me in the middle of the night.
Shay gets freaked out, so I just gotta change it up.
- Got it. - Yep.
Hey, um, I heard the Pats are gathering some new coaches for minicamp.
Any chance there might be a spot for me?
- Uh, I don't know. - Well, you mind asking?
No, yeah. Sure. Yeah. Uh, when I get back.
Back from where?
Hold up.
Is that Aaron Hernandez?
Hey, Coach. Thanks for seeing me.
Better be good.
I saw some prospectives in the lobby. They look good.
Any secret weapons?
You came all the way out here to help me scout some college kids?
No, sir.
What's on your mind, Aaron? I haven't got a lot of time.
Yeah-- Um, yeah, so...
I'm having some trouble with this guy from back home.
He's street, dangerous.
And he's threatening me and my family.
Call the police?
No. It's not really that simple. It's...
No, I can't.
That's sort of what I wanted to talk to you about.
Um, I feel like it would be better,
safer for me if I was somewhere else.
Else?
Like, not in Boston.
I don't understand what you're asking me, Aaron. Are you...
You asking me for a trade?
That's what I was thinking, yeah.
You want me to trade you, Aaron, because you got, what, neighborhood troubles?
Didn't we tell you to stay away from those people?
- Yeah, but-- - I can't trade you, Aaron.
We just spent a shit ton of money on you,
on building a whole fucking offense around you and Gronk.
Best tight ends in football,
Hall of Fame quarterback gonna win a shit ton of games, yeah?
- I understand that-- - Listen.
I watched a kid this morning, nickelback, run a 4.2 in the 40.
Kid comes from a trailer park in Houston.
I'm gonna draft that kid, Aaron.
I'm gonna draft him low, real low, and then I'm gonna turn him into a star.
You know who else I did that for?
And you come here, you ask me for a trade? No. No fucking way.
Coach--
Um...
I don't--
I don't know what else to do.
All right. I have an idea. When do you go to California?
- Sorry? - Your surgery, Aaron, when is it?
We're still setting that up.
- What are you waiting for? - I'm sorry, did you say California?
Yeah, you're using Brady's guy. In Los Angeles. In California.
- Yeah. - Right?
You go out there. You get your shoulder done and you stay a little while.
This guy's not gonna follow you across the country, is he?
Probably not.
Okay, so, you spend the whole spring out there. You get some sunshine, right?
You rehab with Guerrero, and you let this whole thing blow over.
- Right. - And you come home,
if it's still a problem, we'll get our security on it.
How's that sound?
That sounds good.
Yeah, that sounds real good. Thank you, Coach.
Okay. Yeah.
Thank you.
♪ Here we go Come with me ♪
♪ There's a world out there That we should see ♪
Okay, okay. I can't--
Oh, my God, Aaron. I can't see shit.
- I got you, all right? We're here. Ready? - Mm-hmm.
Oh, my God.
You like it?
Aaron, it's incredible.
Okay. Let's take a picture.
Uh. Wait, wait, wait. No. Hold on. Don't post anything.
We don't want anybody to know we're here. It's about us, all right?
You, me and Avi.
Yeah.
Surprise.
Wow.
What do we have here?
- It's date night, baby. - Okay.
You know all the food here, it's so healthy.
So I just got a ton of it. You can have whatever you want.
- Mmm. Thank you. - Mm-hmm.
Here, take this.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
It's been a while.
Since what?
This.
Us just chilling.
- Yeah. - You've been really stressed.
I think this could be really good for us.
- Being here? Mmm. - Yeah.
You know, I get my surgery done. I get right. I get clean.
- Really? Hmm. - Yeah.
Yeah. You know, I don't need all that other stuff.
I think it's a good chance to get us right.
You know what I mean?
I do.
You know, I want you to be happy.
And I know I don't always make that easy.
- You're all right. - I wanna be the man you want me to be.
Baby...
I just need you to be you.
We'll make a small incision here and here.
Go in and tie the cartilage to the bone in your socket
which will stabilize your shoulder.
And what about after?
You'll be in a bit of pain, but we'll give you what you need to manage it.
You see how much your daddy loves us?
Hmm?
Image is up.
I can't, I can't. Stop it. - All right. Hold on, hold on.
You made Brady work out so soon after his surgery?
I did. He complained too just like 250 other athletes who've been in here.
I tell them all the same thing. Your brain is as critical as your body.
See, the minute you got injured,
your brain started sending signals to your body
saying that your shoulder was out of commission.
We have to reprogram those neural pathways.
Lift your arm.
Lift it.
The faster you change the way your brain thinks about the injury,
the faster you will recover.
Break.
What are you taking for the pain?
Whatever they gave me. Oxy.
I'm having my fiancée, hold on to it,
otherwise I'll be popping it, like, every hour.
Well, that's good.
Pain, it's all part of the recovery process.
Deny the pain, it festers.
You face it, you work your way through it, it starts to get easier.
Okay. Let's go again.
The body heals faster than the mind, Aaron.
You must be strong of mind. Stronger than ever.
- Baby, can you help me with this? - Mm-hmm.
God, my shit is on fire today.
- Uh, where'd you put those pills? - It's not time yet.
- No? - Mm-mmm.
So you know where I put my weed?
I thought you said you can't get high if you wanna get right.
Who are you texting with?
Uh, nobody.
Hey.
Uh, you alone?
Uh, I can be. Yeah, one second.
Yeah, what's up?
Hey. Who is Alexander Bradley?
Uh, a guy from back home.
Just a guy?
I mean, yeah. Like, we, you know, we had our issues,
but I've been steering clear of him. Like, it's all good.
Well, he's suing you.
- What? - Yeah.
I just got a call from his lawyer.
Is this why you went to Belichick and asked for a trade?
What do you mean?
Cut the bullshit, Aaron. You didn't think that I was gonna hear about that?
Listen, I was just trying to handle things myself.
Damn it, Aaron. Come on. You should have told me, man.
This guy was threatening to kill me.
Okay. Well, good news. Uh, he doesn't want you dead.
He wants your money.
And they're saying you shot this guy in the face.
What? No, that's crazy. Get out of here.
You need to tell me what's going on, okay?
I've always told you, you can tell me anything.
Listen, this guy's got it out for me, all right? Like, he's got a thing.
So it's a shakedown?
Yes. Yeah. It's exactly that.
How much does he want?
Uh...
Didn't say.
Well, you should ask just, um, to know, you know?
Okay.
Yep, I can do that.
I'm glad you came.
Yeah?
So how's rehab going?
It's good. Guerrero is, uh, tough.
Doesn't have my soft touch?
The sling's off. I'm getting better. That's all that really matters.
You know, I texted you a few days after I found out you were coming out west.
Didn't hear back from you.
Then Murph said you got a new number.
- Are you still working for him? - I am. Yeah.
Um, I thought for a minute,
maybe you weren't getting back to me because you were still mad.
What would I be mad about?
All that happened after Cabo.
No, you made it pretty clear that you wanted nothing to do with me.
I know. That was a mistake.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
Hurt? Nah, I'm not hurt.
I'm chilling.
- Aaron. - No, bro.
Things by me are good.
Like, me, Shay and the baby, we're crushing it.
I'm getting healthier. I'm gonna be back on the field this fall,
and this is like the last fucking thing I need right now.
Then why'd you come?
Fuck!
Hey, what's up, Murph?
All right. Uh, I talked to the lawyer, they want $2.5 million.
What?
I think they'd settle for two.
No, no, no. Fuck that! Fuck that!
Yes. Okay, thank you.
Yes, I'm so, so sorry.
All right. Bye.
Dammit, Aaron. Where have you been? I told you I had an appointment at 1:00.
Yeah, sorry, I got held up.
I just wanted to go out and do something for myself.
She said I can still make it if I leave now. Can you watch Avi?
Yeah. Yeah. Where is she?
She's asleep now, but she should be up in a second.
Okay, okay.
Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.
Go. Have a good time.
- Bye. - Bye.
Yeah. Hernandez, yeah.
My fiancée took off with the pills in her purse.
Um, I'm hurting real bad.
You think you could just get the doctor to write me another script?
Prescription for Hernandez.
Okay.
Okay, I'm coming, I'm coming.
Coming.
What's wrong? My baby, my baby.
It's okay, it's okay. Come here.
Aaron?
Aaron. Oh, my God.
Aaron, wake up!
What? What?
You were supposed to be watching the baby.
I am watching her, but I just had to go to the bathroom.
No, Aaron, you were fucking passed out.
- God. - No, I wasn't.
I was barely out for two minutes.
- Jesus. - You are high.
No, I'm not. Shay, you're being so fucking dramatic right now.
I'm not being dramatic.
You fucking passed out when you're supposed to be watching our baby.
No, I-- Oh, my God.
Shay, you know how much fucking pain I'm in right now?
I went to the bathroom so I could throw up, okay?
And then I hit my head on the toilet.
I-I-I can't fucking believe... a word that you say.
I can't believe a word that you say.
Come on, that's just-- Come on. Shay?
I'm so done.
And the secrets? Oh, my God.
You don't know what you're fucking talking about right now.
You really don't.
- You lie about everything. Everything. - Oh, I lie about everything?
- Yes, everything! - I lie about--
Look what you're doing. You're making the baby cry.
Shh. It's okay.
Who is she? Hmm?
- Who? - Who is she?
You think-- What the fuck are you talking about now, Shay?
I saw the text messages, Aaron.
"Oh, I heard you're in town. I miss you."
What bitch you got on the side?
- Shut the fuck up, Shay. - I'm not gonna shut the fuck up.
- Shut the fuck up. - I'm not gonna shut the fuck up.
You shut up. You think I'm fucking stupid?
You know what? You know what?
I don't give a fuck if you cheat on me,
but you're not gonna treat me like I'm stupid because I'm not stupid, Aaron!
- I'm not stupid! - Hey. I don't think--
I'm not try-- It's just some fucking guy that I used to train with!
What trainer is telling you that they miss you, huh?
All of it is bullshit, Aaron.
Why am I not good enough?
Why am I not good enough for you? Hmm?
I believe in you.
I take care of you. I take care of your kid.
I give up my life for you!
Give me the baby.
No, no, you're not gonna fucking touch her.
- Give me the baby. - You don't give a fuck about me or Avi.
All you give a fuck about is getting high and your fucking--
Give me the fucking baby right now, Shay!
Fuck!
Hey. Evening, sir.
We got a report of a domestic disturbance at this address. Can we come in?
Yeah.
Everything is fine now.
What happened here?
It's just a little accident.
Someone else is here?
Yeah. Shay?
She's just putting the baby to bed.
Hi.
Ma'am, is everything okay?
Uh, they already asked me that. I told them everything is--
Sir, I'm speaking with her now.
Thank you.
Um, yeah, we were just-- We were just roughhousing.
My husband, he plays for the-- He plays for the Patriots.
Yeah, she throws a hell of a spiral that went right through my hands,
and hit some of the vases over there.
Ma'am, if you don't feel safe, just nod your head.
I'm fine.
Had you on my fantasy team last year.
Oh, yeah?
Didn't play much.
No, sorry about that.
Hey.
I didn't know who else to call.
It's okay.
Where is he now?
Hey.
I didn't talk to the team. Sorry.
No, Aaron, don't worry.
I actually, uh-- I'm all set.
I'm gonna be the coach for the tight ends at, uh, Iowa.
That's not why I'm here.
Shay called, she's worried, she thought maybe she--
Jesus. Aaron.
I'm tired.
Tired of?
Just...
not being...
where I'm supposed to be.
Be?
You're exactly where you're supposed to be.
You're a star.
You're living the dream. You have the best life.
I'd do anything.
Anyone would.
Give me the gun, Aaron. I mean--
What are you gonna do? Leave your daughter?
Do you remember what it felt like when Dad left us?
You're really gonna put her through that?
You can do this, all right? You're okay.
I'm not.
Yeah, yeah. Trust me, you are.
Dad didn't raise us to quit, to give up.
You're a fighter.
Hey, hey, look at me.
Look at me.
You got to fight.
All right?
I love you, man.
I care for you.
Hey, Murph, it's me.
Don't worry about Bradley. I got it handled.
He's phenomenal.
Yo, sorry to interrupt. Uh...
I just wanna let you all know I'm 100%, and I ain't missing any time this year.
So mark it down.
Okay.
And I wanna take you up on your offer.
- Which? - Security.
You said the team could help me out?
Yeah. All right. Okay.
We could move you into a place like this, that no one knows about.
A place you feel safe.
Yeah, this will work.
Knock on that.
Fucking bazooka can't pierce through that.
