350
00:21:40,293 --> 00:21:43,668
Such a beautiful girl.

351
00:21:46,376 --> 00:21:48,543
Beth was wondering
who you were going with.

352
00:21:52,043 --> 00:21:53,084
No, Mom.

353
00:21:54,043 --> 00:21:56,918
We just thought
it would be a hoot if you took Lindsey.

354
00:21:57,668 --> 00:21:59,459
She's a cheerleader.

355
00:21:59,959 --> 00:22:01,793
She comes from a great family.

356
00:22:01,876 --> 00:22:05,501
You guys would be
the best-looking couple at the thing.

359
00:22:12,918 --> 00:22:14,209
See you after school.

360
00:22:20,709 --> 00:22:22,584
[young Colin]
You going to the Winter Formal?

361
00:22:22,668 --> 00:22:25,459
Oh, yeah. Ashley is making me go.

362
00:22:25,543 --> 00:22:28,918
She said she got us a hotel room
and stuff for an after party.

363
00:22:29,501 --> 00:22:30,834
-Are you going?
-Yeah.

364
00:22:31,668 --> 00:22:34,918
Gotta just check up with Crystal.
Haven't seen her in a hot minute.

365
00:22:35,001 --> 00:22:36,918
-You're taking Crystal?
-Yeah.

366

Are you sure?

367
00:22:57,959 --> 00:22:59,043
For real, Colin?

368
00:22:59,709 --> 00:23:03,918
It's not like we were engaged.
And we haven't seen each other in weeks.

369
00:23:04,001 --> 00:23:05,293
What? Not true.

370
00:23:05,376 --> 00:23:07,918
Passing each other in the hall
doesn't count.

371
00:23:08,001 --> 00:23:09,793
-I've been busy.
-I know.

372
00:23:09,876 --> 00:23:11,626
I'm busy too, Colin.

373
00:23:12,126 --> 00:23:16,376
But like my momma always says,
we make time for the things we care about.

374
00:23:17,626 --> 00:23:20,959
So instead of waiting for you,
I'm living my life.

375
00:23:25,376 --> 00:23:27,751
-You going to the Winter Formal?
-We'll see.

376
00:23:27,834 --> 00:23:30,793
Well, you know, I was gonna go,

377
00:23:31,293 --> 00:23:34,084
but the girl I wanted to bring,
she dissed me.

378
00:23:35,709 --> 00:23:37,501
My parents are trying to set me up.

379
00:23:41,459 --> 00:23:42,584
You should go.

380
00:23:43,959 --> 00:23:44,876
We'll see.

381
00:23:54,876 --> 00:23:56,584
Sorry I screwed this up.

382
00:23:57,209 --> 00:24:00,668
-You have nothing to apologize for.
-No, no, I do.

383
00:24:01,584 --> 00:24:05,376
You deserve my respect.
You deserve my time.

384
00:24:33,626 --> 00:24:34,459
There he is.

we're gonna forget football

386
00:24:37,334 --> 00:24:38,834
and take a baseball scholarship.

387

Hmm?

388
00:24:40,918 --> 00:24:42,084
I think it's smart.

389
00:24:42,584 --> 00:24:45,584

don't you think?
