1
00:00:04,038 --> 00:00:05,606
Since when
do you read the paper?

2
00:00:05,706 --> 00:00:06,774
I'm doing the Jumble.

3
00:00:06,874 --> 00:00:08,442
I always do the Jumble.

4
00:00:08,509 --> 00:00:10,511
Not today, big man.

5
00:00:10,611 --> 00:00:12,880
Well, maybe you boys
could do it together,

6
00:00:13,013 --> 00:00:14,882
like a father-son thing.

7
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:17,551
No can do.
I Jumble alone.

8
00:00:18,286 --> 00:00:20,688
Hey, uh, can I talk to y'all
before Georgie comes out?

9
00:00:20,788 --> 00:00:23,457
-Is everything okay?
-Yeah, it's just that...

10
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:26,594
today's the anniversary
of his dad's passing.

11
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:28,129
So maybe don't bring it up.

12
00:00:28,196 --> 00:00:30,864
Ah. Can't believe
it's been two years already.

13
00:00:30,964 --> 00:00:32,633
What do you want us to do?

14
00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:34,335
Oh, just be normal.

15
00:00:34,435 --> 00:00:36,070
What's he supposed to do?

16
00:00:37,205 --> 00:00:38,839
This is serious, okay? No jokes.

17
00:00:38,906 --> 00:00:41,142
Wasn't joking, but okay.

18
00:00:41,242 --> 00:00:44,011
-Morning.
-Good morning.

19
00:00:44,112 --> 00:00:46,647
Or just... morning.

20
00:00:47,748 --> 00:00:49,350
Uh, do you want some breakfast?

21
00:00:49,417 --> 00:00:51,152
No, I got to get to the store.
There's this client

22
00:00:51,219 --> 00:00:52,886
of Fagenbacher's
I've been courting.

23
00:00:53,020 --> 00:00:54,488
Today's the day
I'm gonna steal him away.

24
00:00:54,555 --> 00:00:55,856
Hey, knock 'em dead.

25
00:00:55,956 --> 00:00:58,326
(mouthing)

26
00:00:58,392 --> 00:01:00,194
If I land this account,
we should go celebrate tonight.

27
00:01:00,294 --> 00:01:01,562
Oh, yeah, sure, or you...

28
00:01:01,662 --> 00:01:04,063
you know,
whenever you feel like it.

29
00:01:04,165 --> 00:01:06,534
-Yeah. See you later.
-Okay, bye.

30
00:01:09,737 --> 00:01:12,506
Let the record show
I was the only normal one.

31
00:01:15,943 --> 00:01:17,411
(phone ringing)

32
00:01:21,682 --> 00:01:22,916
McAllister Auto.

33
00:01:23,015 --> 00:01:25,286
Hey, Mrs. Cooper.

34
00:01:25,386 --> 00:01:27,121
No, he's having lunch
with a client.

35
00:01:28,422 --> 00:01:30,324
He seemed fine. Why?

36
00:01:31,859 --> 00:01:34,262
Oh, I'm-I'm sorry. I didn't
realize that was today.

37
00:01:34,362 --> 00:01:35,763
Good news. I stuck it

38
00:01:35,863 --> 00:01:37,598
to Fagenbacher.
We got the U-Haul account.

39
00:01:37,731 --> 00:01:38,866
Terrific.

40
00:01:38,932 --> 00:01:40,100
Who you talking to?

41
00:01:40,201 --> 00:01:42,570
Oh, uh, your mom.

42
00:01:42,636 --> 00:01:44,071
Well, give me. I want
to tell her the good news.

43
00:01:44,138 --> 00:01:45,306
No.

44
00:01:46,940 --> 00:01:49,643
I cannot believe
I forgot what today is.

45
00:01:49,777 --> 00:01:51,110
Well, you were in such
a good mood this morning,

46
00:01:51,245 --> 00:01:52,446
I didn't want to upset you.

47
00:01:52,580 --> 00:01:54,582
You remembered
and didn't tell me?!

48
00:01:54,682 --> 00:01:56,384
See? Now you're upset.

49
00:01:57,884 --> 00:01:59,953
* *

50
00:02:18,906 --> 00:02:20,174
(coos)

51
00:02:26,380 --> 00:02:28,382
Thanks for having us over, Mom.

52
00:02:28,482 --> 00:02:31,084
Well, I figured
we're all having a rough day,

53
00:02:31,185 --> 00:02:32,786
might as well have it together.

54
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:35,456
Although I'm sure George
wouldn't want you to be sad.

55
00:02:35,523 --> 00:02:37,691
You know? He'd want you
to get on with your lives.

56
00:02:37,791 --> 00:02:40,928
I don't think Dad would want us
to forget him just yet.

57
00:02:40,994 --> 00:02:42,530
She's not saying forget him.

58
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:44,498
We all know that's not possible.

59
00:02:44,598 --> 00:02:46,166
Coach Wilkins was crying
during P.E.

60
00:02:46,267 --> 00:02:48,902
He said it was hay fever,
but everyone knew.

61
00:02:49,002 --> 00:02:51,204
Well, people grieve differently.

62
00:02:51,339 --> 00:02:53,341
I mean, did you even hear
from Sheldon?

63
00:02:53,441 --> 00:02:54,841
First thing this morning.

64
00:02:54,975 --> 00:02:57,978
Told me he was proudly flying
his flags at half-mast.

65
00:02:58,045 --> 00:03:00,781
Great. Even Sheldon remembered.

66
00:03:00,881 --> 00:03:02,416
What's going on with you?

67
00:03:02,516 --> 00:03:05,986
I forgot. I had a big
work thing, and it just

68
00:03:06,086 --> 00:03:07,321
slipped my mind.

69
00:03:07,421 --> 00:03:09,790
(sighs)
I'm a terrible son.

70
00:03:09,890 --> 00:03:11,792
Oh, honey, you're not.

71
00:03:11,859 --> 00:03:13,594
Or maybe you are.

72
00:03:14,395 --> 00:03:16,264
She remembered
and didn't tell me.

73
00:03:16,364 --> 00:03:18,299
-Hey, you were happy.
-You were happy?

74
00:03:18,366 --> 00:03:19,733
I was. I'm not now.

75
00:03:19,833 --> 00:03:21,335
Knock it off! Today is

76
00:03:21,402 --> 00:03:23,170
hard enough
without you two bickering.

77
00:03:23,237 --> 00:03:25,072
-Sorry.
-Yeah, sorry.

78
00:03:27,007 --> 00:03:29,310
Well, hey, maybe
we could have a little memorial.

79
00:03:29,410 --> 00:03:31,245
Go to the cemetery
and tell some George stories?

80
00:03:31,345 --> 00:03:34,180
Well, let's do something bigger,

81
00:03:34,248 --> 00:03:35,816
something
everyone will remember.

82
00:03:35,916 --> 00:03:37,718
Like when he got his photo
on the wall at Sizzler

83
00:03:37,817 --> 00:03:39,353
for eating that 72-ounce steak?

84
00:03:39,453 --> 00:03:41,589
Let's please not remember that.

85
00:03:42,923 --> 00:03:46,860
We can get something named after
him, like a bench, or... Ooh.

86
00:03:46,927 --> 00:03:48,896
Ooh, a new scoreboard at the
high school with his name on it.

87
00:03:48,996 --> 00:03:50,430
Oh, that's a great idea.

88
00:03:50,564 --> 00:03:52,165
He would love that.

89
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:55,336
Wait. So every time
I'm hanging out with my friends

90
00:03:55,436 --> 00:03:58,406
under the bleachers,
I'll look up and see Dad's name?

91
00:03:58,506 --> 00:04:00,841
Why are you hanging out
under the bleachers?

92
00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:04,912
Uh, it's where we pray to Jesus.

93
00:04:11,785 --> 00:04:12,886
* *

94
00:04:12,986 --> 00:04:14,488
Here ya go.

95
00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:16,390
Ah. I can't believe

96
00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:18,726
you're old enough
to buy us beers.

97
00:04:18,826 --> 00:04:21,428
(voice breaking):
They grow up so fast.

98
00:04:21,495 --> 00:04:22,630
Really, Wayne?

99
00:04:22,763 --> 00:04:24,365
It's an emotional time.

100
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:27,635
-To George Cooper.
-To Dad.

101
00:04:27,768 --> 00:04:30,237
-To George.
-He was a good man.

102
00:04:30,304 --> 00:04:31,539
Thanks, Principal Peterson.

103
00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:34,308
You're not in high school
anymore. Call me Tom.

104
00:04:34,408 --> 00:04:36,109
That's okay. I feel weird

105
00:04:36,176 --> 00:04:37,911
calling old people
by their first name.

106
00:04:38,011 --> 00:04:39,613
Old people?

107
00:04:39,713 --> 00:04:42,215
So, what's on your mind?

108
00:04:42,316 --> 00:04:45,018
I want to do something
to honor my dad,

109
00:04:45,152 --> 00:04:46,320
and I was thinking,

110
00:04:46,454 --> 00:04:49,490
your scoreboard is
pretty beat up.

111
00:04:49,590 --> 00:04:51,425
What if we got a new one
and call it

112
00:04:51,525 --> 00:04:53,561
the "George Cooper
Memorial Scoreboard"?

113
00:04:54,795 --> 00:04:56,630
Damn it.

114
00:04:56,697 --> 00:04:59,066
That's a nice thought,
but, uh, we can't afford it.

115
00:04:59,166 --> 00:05:00,368
What if I raise the money?

116
00:05:00,468 --> 00:05:02,002
Oh, well, they're pretty pricey.

117
00:05:02,102 --> 00:05:05,506
You're talking to the best tire
salesman in Texas. I got this.

118
00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:08,676
Well, let me be the first one
to contribute.

119
00:05:08,776 --> 00:05:10,077
I'm in for fifty.

120
00:05:10,177 --> 00:05:11,712
Fifty?

121
00:05:11,845 --> 00:05:13,981
That man was your best friend.

122
00:05:14,081 --> 00:05:15,883
You're right.

123
00:05:16,016 --> 00:05:18,051
(voice breaking):
A hundred.

124
00:05:19,186 --> 00:05:20,554
Damn, you are good.

125
00:05:24,224 --> 00:05:25,793
So every Friday night,

126
00:05:25,859 --> 00:05:29,730
people will look up at the score
and see my dad's name.

127
00:05:29,863 --> 00:05:31,399
Oh, that's real nice.

128
00:05:31,532 --> 00:05:33,433
It is a high school, though.
You better put the sign up high

129
00:05:33,534 --> 00:05:35,803
so no one can change "Cooper"
to "Pooper."

130
00:05:35,869 --> 00:05:39,072
Good thinking.
I totally would have done that.

131
00:05:39,206 --> 00:05:41,141
How are you gonna pay for it?

132
00:05:41,241 --> 00:05:42,510
Donations.
People loved my dad.

133
00:05:42,610 --> 00:05:44,044
They'll be happy to contribute.

134
00:05:44,177 --> 00:05:45,479
Put me down for a hundred.

135
00:05:45,579 --> 00:05:48,148
How? That just means
I'm paying for it.

136
00:05:48,248 --> 00:05:51,183
No. Mom, can I have $100?

137
00:05:51,284 --> 00:05:54,254
Of course.
It's going to a good cause.

138
00:05:54,388 --> 00:05:56,390
How much
can we put you down for?

139
00:05:56,524 --> 00:05:57,925
I guess a hundred, too.

140
00:05:58,025 --> 00:06:00,561
Really? That's what I put in,
and I'm broke.

141
00:06:01,662 --> 00:06:03,497
Put us down for $500.

142
00:06:03,564 --> 00:06:06,333
Thanks, Mrs. McAllister.
That's real generous.

143
00:06:06,434 --> 00:06:08,936
-You're welcome.
-From both of us.

144
00:06:09,036 --> 00:06:10,438
That's a pretty good start,
right?

145
00:06:10,538 --> 00:06:12,440
Still got a long way to go.

146
00:06:12,540 --> 00:06:14,274
Scoreboards are more expensive
than you think.

147
00:06:14,374 --> 00:06:15,409
Then put me down
for another hundred.

148
00:06:15,509 --> 00:06:17,478
Would you cut that out!

149
00:06:19,246 --> 00:06:21,449
Hmm. Nice picture.

150
00:06:21,582 --> 00:06:23,216
That was the day
he finally shot the gopher

151
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:25,152
digging up the backyard.

152
00:06:25,252 --> 00:06:28,255
That is a very Texas story.

153
00:06:28,355 --> 00:06:30,724
Let me get things started.

154
00:06:30,791 --> 00:06:32,726
Hmm? (chuckles)

155
00:06:32,793 --> 00:06:34,261
Five dollars?

156
00:06:34,394 --> 00:06:36,597
My dead father's only worth
five dollars?

157
00:06:36,697 --> 00:06:38,532
It was either that or a twenty.

158
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:42,503
Okay, but I'm taking
my five back.

159
00:06:43,571 --> 00:06:46,440
-Hello, boys.
-What do you want?

160
00:06:46,574 --> 00:06:48,207
I just came by
to congratulate you.

161
00:06:48,275 --> 00:06:49,543
Poaching my U-Haul account--

162
00:06:49,643 --> 00:06:52,546
that's... that's got
to feel pretty good.

163
00:06:52,613 --> 00:06:54,515
It does,
and I'm gonna do it again.

164
00:06:54,615 --> 00:06:57,618
Ooh, little doggie's
got a big bark.

165
00:06:57,751 --> 00:06:58,919
And a big bite.

166
00:06:59,019 --> 00:07:00,521
He may have rabies.

167
00:07:01,555 --> 00:07:03,256
I didn't come here to fight,
okay?

168
00:07:03,323 --> 00:07:04,625
I-I like having
some competition.

169
00:07:04,725 --> 00:07:06,560
It keeps things spicy.

170
00:07:06,627 --> 00:07:08,829
Well, thanks for stopping by,
but we got work to do.

171
00:07:08,962 --> 00:07:10,598
I'm going.

172
00:07:10,664 --> 00:07:12,633
What's that?

173
00:07:12,733 --> 00:07:15,168
-Something for your dad?
-Watch it.

174
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,270
No, no. Hey, I-I respect that.

175
00:07:17,337 --> 00:07:20,340
In fact, let me chip in.

176
00:07:21,174 --> 00:07:22,843
Ooh. (laughs)

177
00:07:22,976 --> 00:07:24,211
I only got hundreds.

178
00:07:24,311 --> 00:07:25,846
(laughs)

179
00:07:25,979 --> 00:07:28,582
That's a Benjamin Franklin,
in case you've never seen one.

180
00:07:35,088 --> 00:07:36,323
(door closes)

181
00:07:36,456 --> 00:07:37,591
Can I take back my twenty?

182
00:07:42,295 --> 00:07:43,864
Wow.

183
00:07:43,997 --> 00:07:45,832
-You raised all this at school?
-Yeah.

184
00:07:45,933 --> 00:07:48,001
-How?
-Stole Meemaw's cigarettes

185
00:07:48,101 --> 00:07:50,103
and sold 'em
for a dollar apiece.

186
00:07:50,170 --> 00:07:52,105
Well, at least
you ain't smoking 'em.

187
00:07:52,172 --> 00:07:53,607
Sure.

188
00:07:54,642 --> 00:07:55,808
So, how'd you do?

189
00:07:55,876 --> 00:07:58,512
People are giving,
but not nearly enough.

190
00:07:58,612 --> 00:08:01,448
-Have you tried crying?
-What?

191
00:08:01,515 --> 00:08:02,883
Whenever I want something,

192
00:08:02,983 --> 00:08:05,152
I just whip up some tears
about Dad.

193
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:08,656
-I ain't gonna cry.
-It's easy.

194
00:08:08,756 --> 00:08:10,891
(crying):
'Cause ever since Dad died,

195
00:08:11,024 --> 00:08:12,025
people feel bad for me

196
00:08:12,125 --> 00:08:13,961
and they just want to
make it better.

197
00:08:14,027 --> 00:08:15,896
(crying)

198
00:08:16,029 --> 00:08:17,330
Is everything okay?

199
00:08:17,397 --> 00:08:19,832
I'm fine,
this is just a hard time.

200
00:08:19,933 --> 00:08:21,134
What can I do?
Can I get you something?

201
00:08:21,201 --> 00:08:22,369
What do you need?

202
00:08:29,643 --> 00:08:31,812
All right, I'm gonna go
hop in the shower.

203
00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:33,547
Maybe I'll join you.

204
00:08:33,681 --> 00:08:34,847
Didn't you just take one?

205
00:08:34,948 --> 00:08:38,150
Yeah, but you weren't
all soapy in mine.

206
00:08:38,251 --> 00:08:39,753
(phone ringing)

207
00:08:43,023 --> 00:08:45,158
-Hello?
-Georgie. I got

208
00:08:45,258 --> 00:08:46,193
some good news for you.

209
00:08:46,293 --> 00:08:47,360
Scoreboard's paid for.

210
00:08:47,460 --> 00:08:49,730
What? That's amazing.

211
00:08:49,863 --> 00:08:53,834
Yeah, Fagenbacher Auto offered
to cover the whole thing.

212
00:08:53,934 --> 00:08:55,535
You're kidding.

213
00:08:55,603 --> 00:08:57,537
Nope, just want
their logo on it.

214
00:08:57,605 --> 00:08:59,406
-What's going on?
-So, it'd be the "George Cooper

215
00:08:59,506 --> 00:09:03,243
Memorial Scoreboard
sponsored by Fagenbacher Auto"?

216
00:09:03,376 --> 00:09:04,612
Pretty good, huh?

217
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:06,947
No, it's not good.

218
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,649
(stammers)

219
00:09:08,749 --> 00:09:11,952
(crying): It's just,
e-ever since my dad died,

220
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:16,123
Fagenbacher's just been trying
to run me out of business.

221
00:09:16,223 --> 00:09:18,759
(tongue clicks)
What are you doing?

222
00:09:18,859 --> 00:09:19,927
Crying.

223
00:09:20,027 --> 00:09:22,529
(chuckles)
No, I don't think so.

224
00:09:22,596 --> 00:09:24,865
(crying):
I-I have to call you back.

225
00:09:24,965 --> 00:09:26,800
I-I'm just too emotional
right now.

226
00:09:34,007 --> 00:09:35,909
You can't take his money.

227
00:09:36,009 --> 00:09:37,611
This is a public school.

228
00:09:37,711 --> 00:09:40,147
I will literally
take anybody's money.

229
00:09:41,114 --> 00:09:43,216
Fine, then you can't
put his name on it.

230
00:09:43,316 --> 00:09:44,752
Georgie, I get
where you're coming from,

231
00:09:44,852 --> 00:09:47,621
but your dad's name is still
gonna be on the scoreboard.

232
00:09:47,721 --> 00:09:50,423
Yeah, with "Fagenbacher Auto"
right below it.

233
00:09:50,523 --> 00:09:53,827
Or above. We're still
negotiating placement.

234
00:09:53,894 --> 00:09:56,096
He's just doing this
to spite me.

235
00:09:56,229 --> 00:09:58,465
Look, we get to honor your dad,

236
00:09:58,565 --> 00:09:59,967
and I get a free scoreboard.

237
00:10:00,067 --> 00:10:02,369
Everybody wins.

238
00:10:02,435 --> 00:10:05,939
Except the football team, who
as you well know, truly suck.

239
00:10:06,907 --> 00:10:09,877
What if I can buy you
an even nicer scoreboard?

240
00:10:09,943 --> 00:10:11,679
If you really want
to raise more money,

241
00:10:11,745 --> 00:10:13,546
we can upgrade the library.

242
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:17,184
My dad was a football coach,
not a library coach.

243
00:10:17,250 --> 00:10:20,353
Just give me a chance.
I'll raise more money than Fred,

244
00:10:20,420 --> 00:10:22,656
and we can buy
that scoreboard without him.

245
00:10:23,791 --> 00:10:24,825
Hey.

246
00:10:24,925 --> 00:10:26,426
How'd you know I was here?

247
00:10:26,526 --> 00:10:28,328
I didn't. I got caught
selling cigarettes.

248
00:10:29,329 --> 00:10:31,799
Well, what do you have
to say for yourself?

249
00:10:32,933 --> 00:10:34,067
I'm sorry.

250
00:10:35,468 --> 00:10:37,270
It's just...

251
00:10:37,370 --> 00:10:39,139
(crying):
Ever since my dad died,

252
00:10:39,272 --> 00:10:40,507
I have been so lost.

253
00:10:40,607 --> 00:10:43,176
And there's just no one
to tell me right from wrong.

254
00:10:43,276 --> 00:10:45,278
Oh, honey, don't cry. It's okay.

255
00:10:49,249 --> 00:10:51,584
Yeah. So, picture this:

256
00:10:51,651 --> 00:10:53,687
the "George Cooper
Memorial Scoreboard"

257
00:10:53,787 --> 00:10:56,790
sponsored by y'all,
Lone Star Beer.

258
00:10:56,890 --> 00:10:58,425
Oh, he was
a local football coach.

259
00:10:58,491 --> 00:10:59,793
A beloved hero, really.

260
00:10:59,893 --> 00:11:01,394
We just need about $10,000,

261
00:11:01,461 --> 00:11:03,797
and we can make this happen.

262
00:11:03,931 --> 00:11:06,867
I mean, he definitely
spent that much on your beer.

263
00:11:08,301 --> 00:11:11,238
Probably more, so in a way,
he's already paid for it.

264
00:11:13,807 --> 00:11:16,309
Well, just so you know,
I recently turned 21,

265
00:11:16,409 --> 00:11:18,879
and if that's your attitude,
I'm gonna become a Miller man.

266
00:11:21,381 --> 00:11:23,350
Ruben, I just had a brainstorm.

267
00:11:23,450 --> 00:11:25,318
We're not paying
for the scoreboard.

268
00:11:25,418 --> 00:11:27,520
You don't know
that's what I was gonna say.

269
00:11:27,654 --> 00:11:28,989
What were you gonna say?

270
00:11:29,089 --> 00:11:31,458
The point is, you don't know.

271
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:34,061
Mr. McAllister,
I just had a brainstorm.

272
00:11:34,161 --> 00:11:35,295
Run for your life.

273
00:11:36,296 --> 00:11:37,831
You hate Fagenbacher, right?

274
00:11:37,965 --> 00:11:40,267
Y'all were competitors
for a lot of years?

275
00:11:40,367 --> 00:11:42,702
Uh, that was a long time ago.
I don't really think about it.

276
00:11:42,836 --> 00:11:45,939
Mm. Not just rivals in business
but also in love.

277
00:11:46,006 --> 00:11:48,175
What are you doing, Georgie?

278
00:11:48,275 --> 00:11:50,477
I'm just saying, if it was me,
it'd be hard

279
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:52,946
looking up at that scoreboard
every Friday night

280
00:11:53,046 --> 00:11:54,681
and seeing the guy's name
who had intimate relations

281
00:11:54,782 --> 00:11:57,317
with my wife before I did.

282
00:11:58,351 --> 00:12:00,253
I'm going home.

283
00:12:00,353 --> 00:12:01,889
Take him with you.

284
00:12:08,829 --> 00:12:10,330
GEORGE SR.:
You did that for me?

285
00:12:10,397 --> 00:12:12,465
FRED:
Eh, it's not a big deal.
You deserve it.

286
00:12:12,565 --> 00:12:13,633
GEORGE SR.:
It is a big deal.

287
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:15,035
Let me take a look at that.

288
00:12:15,135 --> 00:12:16,870
It's gonna be twice
as big as the old one

289
00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:18,538
and state of the art.

290
00:12:18,671 --> 00:12:20,373
-Ooh, that's a beaut.
-(chuckles)

291
00:12:20,507 --> 00:12:21,775
What's going on?

292
00:12:21,875 --> 00:12:24,377
I'm just showing your dad
plans for the new scoreboard.

293
00:12:24,477 --> 00:12:25,879
Have you seen this, Georgie?

294
00:12:26,013 --> 00:12:28,148
Look what Fred
put together for me.

295
00:12:29,549 --> 00:12:31,051
It was my idea.

296
00:12:31,151 --> 00:12:32,685
Well, then,
why didn't you do it?

297
00:12:32,786 --> 00:12:33,653
Now, hold on, George.

298
00:12:33,753 --> 00:12:36,656
He tried, he just failed.

299
00:12:36,723 --> 00:12:38,591
Wouldn't be the first time.

300
00:12:38,725 --> 00:12:40,293
You should have seen
his report cards.

301
00:12:40,393 --> 00:12:43,563
I just happen to have a couple
of my old ones right here.

302
00:12:45,765 --> 00:12:47,567
Straight A's.

303
00:12:47,667 --> 00:12:49,136
Proud of you, son.

304
00:12:50,403 --> 00:12:52,840
No, no, no, no, he ain't
your son, I'm your son.

305
00:12:52,940 --> 00:12:54,707
-You want to toss
the ball around?
-You bet.

306
00:12:54,774 --> 00:12:56,409
I was talking to Freddy.

307
00:12:57,477 --> 00:12:58,745
I'd love to.

308
00:12:58,846 --> 00:13:00,447
Come on, kiddo.

309
00:13:02,049 --> 00:13:03,350
No, no, wait.
I-I'm the good son.

310
00:13:03,416 --> 00:13:05,585
Missy's selling cigarettes.

311
00:13:06,453 --> 00:13:07,787
Narc.

312
00:13:08,421 --> 00:13:10,557
(gasps)

313
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:12,725
Hey. You okay?

314
00:13:12,792 --> 00:13:15,228
Yeah. Just a bad dream.

315
00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:17,564
Again?

316
00:13:17,664 --> 00:13:20,300
Oh, Georgie, you know whatever
happens with this scoreboard,

317
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:21,869
your dad loves you.

318
00:13:21,969 --> 00:13:23,636
Right, George?

319
00:13:24,771 --> 00:13:26,406
Yeah, sure, whatever.

320
00:13:27,774 --> 00:13:31,979
And then the rabbit goes
through the hole and...

321
00:13:32,079 --> 00:13:33,881
voilà.

322
00:13:33,981 --> 00:13:35,983
Thanks, Pop.

323
00:13:36,083 --> 00:13:37,017
(stammers)

324
00:13:38,451 --> 00:13:40,053
(exhales)

325
00:13:43,056 --> 00:13:44,324
You look tired.

326
00:13:44,424 --> 00:13:46,326
CeeCee keep you up all night?

327
00:13:46,426 --> 00:13:49,496
No, Georgie tossed and turned.

328
00:13:49,629 --> 00:13:51,098
Yeah, wish there was some way

329
00:13:51,164 --> 00:13:53,033
I could help him
raise the money.

330
00:13:53,133 --> 00:13:54,501
Well, when you were
in high school,

331
00:13:54,634 --> 00:13:58,138
you did all those fundraisers
for the cheerleading squad.

332
00:13:58,238 --> 00:13:59,306
Yeah, I don't think
I'm comfortable

333
00:13:59,406 --> 00:14:01,441
washing cars
in a bikini anymore.

334
00:14:02,409 --> 00:14:05,178
Some of us weren't comfortable
with it then.

335
00:14:06,413 --> 00:14:08,715
-Morning.
-Good morning.
-Hey.

336
00:14:09,749 --> 00:14:11,284
I have an idea about
how to raise the money.

337
00:14:11,351 --> 00:14:13,020
You do a news story
about my dad on TV,

338
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,687
and donations will pour in.

339
00:14:14,821 --> 00:14:18,058
Oh, Georgie,
I-I just started there.

340
00:14:18,158 --> 00:14:20,293
I can't pitch a story
about my father-in-law.

341
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,929
I mean, there's got
to be something else.

342
00:14:21,995 --> 00:14:24,231
Time to bust out that bikini.

343
00:14:25,265 --> 00:14:27,034
Forget it. Sorry I asked.

344
00:14:27,167 --> 00:14:28,668
Whoa, son, I know
you're stressed, but...

345
00:14:28,801 --> 00:14:29,802
I ain't your son.

346
00:14:29,869 --> 00:14:31,171
I'm George Cooper's son.

347
00:14:31,304 --> 00:14:32,372
His only son.

348
00:14:32,505 --> 00:14:35,242
-Except for Sheldon.
-Except for Sheldon.

349
00:14:38,645 --> 00:14:41,881
Poor Georgie. I hate
to see him drive himself crazy.

350
00:14:41,982 --> 00:14:43,683
I know.
His dad wouldn't care about

351
00:14:43,783 --> 00:14:45,185
having something
named after him.

352
00:14:45,318 --> 00:14:46,686
Wouldn't care?

353
00:14:46,786 --> 00:14:49,489
Whose idea do you think it was
to call Georgie "Georgie"?

354
00:14:50,623 --> 00:14:53,193
-I didn't know that.
-I was all set
to call him Phillip.

355
00:14:53,293 --> 00:14:54,861
"Phil Cooper."
That's pretty good.

356
00:14:54,962 --> 00:14:57,064
I know.

357
00:14:57,897 --> 00:14:59,399
I don't like to speak ill
of people,

358
00:14:59,532 --> 00:15:00,968
but this Fagenbacher,

359
00:15:01,034 --> 00:15:04,204
he sounds like a real horse's
you-know-what.

360
00:15:04,337 --> 00:15:05,805
(tongue clicks)

361
00:15:05,872 --> 00:15:07,941
I know what. Do you know what?

362
00:15:08,808 --> 00:15:10,877
Patootie.

363
00:15:10,978 --> 00:15:12,479
Nailed it.

364
00:15:12,579 --> 00:15:15,915
I think I might go down there
and give him a piece of my mind.

365
00:15:16,049 --> 00:15:19,252
Well, if that piece
is "patootie," I wouldn't.

366
00:15:20,253 --> 00:15:22,822
I don't need vulgar language
to make a point.

367
00:15:22,889 --> 00:15:25,525
Yeah, you don't need it,
but it really adds some oomph.

368
00:15:25,592 --> 00:15:29,662
I'd like to remind you, I have
the biggest "oomph" of all.

369
00:15:29,729 --> 00:15:30,830
(chuckles)

370
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:32,499
(sighs):
Oh, brother.

371
00:15:37,804 --> 00:15:39,272
Mr. Fagenbacher?

372
00:15:39,372 --> 00:15:41,508
I am Mary Cooper, Georgie's mom.

373
00:15:41,608 --> 00:15:43,543
No.

374
00:15:45,212 --> 00:15:47,780
You're not old enough
to be his mom. (chuckles)

375
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,849
Maybe his big sister.

376
00:15:49,915 --> 00:15:51,084
That ain't gonna work on me.

377
00:15:51,184 --> 00:15:53,453
The devil speaks
with a forked tongue.

378
00:15:53,586 --> 00:15:54,787
You calling me a devil?

379
00:15:54,921 --> 00:15:56,423
A handsome one, I hope.

380
00:15:56,523 --> 00:15:57,957
(laughs)

381
00:15:58,091 --> 00:16:00,527
Do you really think
you can use my late husband

382
00:16:00,627 --> 00:16:03,696
to upset my son and then charm
your way out of it?

383
00:16:03,796 --> 00:16:05,198
Mrs. Cooper...

384
00:16:05,298 --> 00:16:06,866
-Can I call you Mary?
-No, you may not.

385
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:08,335
Mrs. Cooper...

386
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:11,304
...you got me all wrong.

387
00:16:11,438 --> 00:16:13,940
All right? Yeah, Georgie and I,
sure, we have our issues,

388
00:16:14,041 --> 00:16:17,044
but when he told me what
he wanted to do for his dad,

389
00:16:17,144 --> 00:16:20,280
I was touched,
and I wanted to help out.

390
00:16:20,413 --> 00:16:22,115
I have a teenage daughter.

391
00:16:22,215 --> 00:16:24,484
I know what malarkey
smells like.

392
00:16:25,552 --> 00:16:26,586
You got me.

393
00:16:26,686 --> 00:16:29,389
I'm a bad boy.
(laughs)

394
00:16:29,489 --> 00:16:31,558
You want to give me a spanking?

395
00:16:32,625 --> 00:16:34,961
Don't you disrespect me.

396
00:16:35,062 --> 00:16:36,463
-Yes, ma'am. I-I...
-And do not disrespect

397
00:16:36,596 --> 00:16:37,797
the memory of my husband.

398
00:16:37,930 --> 00:16:39,632
-Well, I didn't...
-I am not done.

399
00:16:39,732 --> 00:16:41,968
My family has been through
too much these past few years

400
00:16:42,102 --> 00:16:44,271
to put up with you
rubbing salt in the wound.

401
00:16:44,337 --> 00:16:46,806
-Now, I never intended...
-And God is watching you.

402
00:16:46,906 --> 00:16:49,776
He may be forgiving,
but when it comes to my family,

403
00:16:49,876 --> 00:16:52,745
I sure as heck am not.

404
00:16:53,813 --> 00:16:56,049
I'm sorry, I-I crossed the line.

405
00:16:56,149 --> 00:16:59,186
-And?
-And I will back off
the scoreboard.

406
00:16:59,286 --> 00:17:01,688
You will also apologize
to Georgie.

407
00:17:01,788 --> 00:17:03,590
Yes, ma'am.

408
00:17:03,656 --> 00:17:05,625
(exhales)

409
00:17:05,724 --> 00:17:07,194
All right, then.

410
00:17:08,928 --> 00:17:13,133
There may be a decent man
underneath all that scruff.

411
00:17:13,965 --> 00:17:16,236
I can shave!

412
00:17:22,742 --> 00:17:23,742
(marching band playing)

413
00:17:23,843 --> 00:17:25,512
It is beautiful,

414
00:17:25,578 --> 00:17:28,915
your dad's name up there
for everyone to see.

415
00:17:30,817 --> 00:17:32,852
Ain't as fancy as a scoreboard.

416
00:17:32,952 --> 00:17:34,721
No, a snack bar's better.

417
00:17:34,787 --> 00:17:37,624
Our team's so bad,
who wants to look at the score?

418
00:17:38,591 --> 00:17:39,959
Be cool if they served beer.

419
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:41,728
It's a high school.

420
00:17:41,828 --> 00:17:43,830
Excuse me for trying
to honor my father.

421
00:17:46,133 --> 00:17:48,801
This is the best hot dog.

422
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:50,837
(crying): It's like George
cooked it himself.

423
00:17:51,871 --> 00:17:52,905
Pull it together, Wayne.

424
00:17:52,972 --> 00:17:54,874
You got a game to lose.

425
00:18:03,550 --> 00:18:05,918
