Taming The Football Bad Boy
Transcript
00:00:01Three seconds left on the clock.
00:00:06Boo! Boo and do it!
00:00:23Touchdown, Tuck and Youssef.
00:00:28Damn it!
00:00:30This is your fault! You're a jeeks!
00:00:33Walking curse, I should've known when your mother left.
00:00:37Bad luck's in your bones!
00:00:39What do you mean, my fault?
00:00:45That did you not begin?
00:00:46That touchdown just cost me my last hundred K!
00:00:51Your last hundred K?
00:00:53That was my life savings for my future, for-
00:00:56What?!
00:00:57I was saving up so I could do my internship with the Sentinels.
00:01:02It's my first day today.
00:01:03The Sentinels?
00:01:06Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:01:08Leon the Hitman Rivers?
00:01:09The linebacker paralyzed their EMVP with a dirty hit.
00:01:11And who is banned for life.
00:01:12I'm using a different last name.
00:01:13You think a fake last name's gonna fool you anymore?
00:01:17You're a universe.
00:01:18You're my flesh and blood.
00:01:20The pizza's cold.
00:01:21I'm gonna-
00:01:22The pizza's cold.
00:01:23I'm gonna-
00:01:26No.
00:01:27No.
00:01:28I am nothing like you.
00:01:29And I never will be.
00:01:30It's not like anyone's gonna miss you.
00:01:31You're a worthless man.
00:01:32I am nothing like you.
00:01:33I am nothing like you.
00:01:34And I never will be.
00:01:35It's not like anyone's gonna miss you.
00:01:36You're a worthless loser, right?
00:01:37You're a worthless loser, right?
00:01:38I'm-
00:01:39I'm not-
00:01:40No.
00:01:41I am nothing like you.
00:01:42I am nothing like you.
00:01:43And I never will be.
00:01:44The pizza's cold, but I-
00:01:51No.
00:01:53I am nothing like you, and I never will be.
00:01:57It's not like anyone's gonna miss you. You're a worthless loser.
00:02:01You didn't beat my girl.
00:02:03Get the hell out of my house!
00:02:05Don't bother coming back, you grateful little bitch!
00:02:14If the Sentinels ever find out who I really am, I'll be blacklisted forever.
00:02:20I have to hide my identity, at any cost.
00:02:29To the haters!
00:02:35You're a loser!
00:02:40You suck!
00:02:44You suck!
00:02:49Oh!
00:02:58He's a mess.
00:03:00But messes make headlines, and headlines fill stadiums.
00:03:06We bring him in, rehab his image, make him look good, make me look good.
00:03:13This isn't the first time that he's gotten into trouble like this.
00:03:18He's got anger management issues.
00:03:21And heat. The right story turns him from chaos into a comeback.
00:03:27More like a liability.
00:03:30Well, that's what the morality clause is for.
00:03:32And the accountability partner.
00:03:33Damn.
00:03:34You tackle harder than half the league.
00:03:39Tucker, you sir?
00:03:41Let me guess.
00:03:42You're a fan.
00:03:43You do trend every week.
00:03:44But not for football.
00:03:45Bar fights, suspensions, an Instagram feed that reads like a 5-0.
00:03:49Sponsor seems radioactive.
00:03:50So I'm guessing that's a hard no.
00:03:54You're a fan, huh?
00:03:55But if we pivot now, lean into redemption, vulnerability, a carefully curious comeback, you're not just back in the league.
00:04:04You're bigger than Travis Kelsey.
00:04:05Samir Richards, PR intern.
00:04:06Well, shit.
00:04:07Most people just ask for a selfie.
00:04:08I don't know.
00:04:09I don't know.
00:04:10I don't know.
00:04:11I don't know.
00:04:12I don't know.
00:04:13I don't know.
00:04:14I don't know.

00:04:17I don't know.
00:04:18I don't know.
00:04:19I don't know.
00:04:20You're not just back in the league.
00:04:21You're bigger than Travis Kelsey.
00:04:24Samir Richards, PR intern.
00:04:30Well, shit.
00:04:31Most people just ask for a selfie.
00:04:33You're not just back in the league.
00:04:34You're bigger than Travis Kelsey.
00:04:35Samir Richards, PR intern.
00:04:38She just called me Radioactive.
00:04:57well well you must be the charity hire I'm scared I know who you are I told HR I needed

00:13:16más
00:13:17It's their job to stir the pie, but still, it's brutal.
00:13:29You do this long enough, and you start to believe the version of yourself of this, Ellen.
00:13:35Bad boy, locker room cancer, walking head line, figured screw it, might as well just
00:13:43live up to the ground.
00:13:45And now?
00:13:46I don't know who the hell I'm trying to be, but I do know that if I mess up, it's over.
00:13:55Not just this contract.
00:13:58My career.
00:13:59You're not the only one trying to outrun a part of yourself.
00:14:13Is that your new girlfriend, Tucker?
00:14:18Well, that's going to take a while.
00:14:22That's his intern, P.R. Rehab.
00:14:27She won't last long.
00:14:31Good heavens, Mike, down!
00:14:36That's the commissioner's wife!
00:14:40That's why charity cases like her stayed behind the rope.
00:14:49That's why the commissioner is demanding an apology and a new dress for his wife.
00:14:58She's clearly overwhelmed.
00:15:00She doesn't belong in these settings.
00:15:04I tried to tell you.
00:15:08Well, this is your idea, Muson.
00:15:09Fix it, or I'll pull your contract.
00:15:11I'll resign.
00:15:13She's not going anywhere.
00:15:17You said I need to handle her.
00:15:31I chose her.
00:15:33She goes, I go.
00:15:36You're seriously going to jeopardize your comeback for an intern.
00:15:45What can I say?
00:15:46I thrive on chaos.
00:15:55Hey, wait up!
00:15:58Michael!
00:16:00Sorry.
00:16:03We have to separate them.
00:16:17Rivers.
00:16:20I thought your last name was Richards.
00:16:29Tucker can't know who I really am.
00:16:32Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:16:33Leon the Hitman Nurse?
00:16:38The linebacker who paralyzed their MVP with a dirty hit.
00:16:45If he finds out, I lose this job, my future, everything, and I am back to waiting tables.
00:16:53Richards is my mom's maiden name.
00:16:55I use it sometimes.
00:16:56I guess it makes me feel closer to her.
00:17:02Sure.
00:17:04Makes sense.
00:17:06As long as you're not secretly in witness protection or something.
00:17:12Can I walk you to your car?
00:17:15I, uh, forgot something.
00:17:17You go ahead.
00:17:18I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:19I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:43Hello?
00:17:43Oh.
00:17:54Oh.
00:18:00Oh.
00:18:02Sorry.
00:18:02I didn't see anything.
00:18:09Okay.
00:18:10You can cry.
00:18:11Or you can suck it up and pretend you still have a career.
00:18:14And your dignity.
00:18:17Practically saw my credit score.
00:18:18Uh, how long?
00:18:26It's just, uh, I got kicked out of my house.
00:18:35Yeah.
00:18:35Back your things.
00:18:38What?
00:18:39You're moving in.
00:18:41With me.
00:18:43Tucker, no, that's not-
00:18:4424-7 means 24-7.
00:18:47You can't do your job if you're showering in a supply closet.
00:18:51It's more like a haunted boiler room.
00:18:54I appreciate it, but I don't need your pity.
00:18:58It's not pity.
00:19:00It's just practical.
00:19:02You can't keep me accountable if you're squatty in the team locker room.
00:19:18Wow.
00:19:18Your room is down the hall, first door on the left.
00:19:23Make yourself at home, but don't touch anything in the fridge labeled TN.
00:19:28That means it's mine.
00:19:30Thanks.
00:19:31I can spell.
00:19:33Then we're gonna get along great.
00:19:35Roommate.
00:19:48Oh, Jesus.
00:20:03Sorry, I didn't know anyone was-
00:20:07It's my house.
00:20:08You're the one sneaking around like him.
00:20:10Like him.
00:20:13I wasn't sneaking, I was...
00:20:15Hydrating.
00:20:23Uh, you could really use some better snacks.
00:20:27Take the cap.
00:20:30I wasn't staring, by the way.
00:20:33I never said you were.
00:20:34Good, because I wasn't.
00:20:45Still not staring?
00:20:48Uh, you're leaking.
00:20:51Sweat, you're up.
00:20:52It's distracting.
00:20:56I'll try to be less distracting.
00:21:03Look, if we're gonna live together, we should probably set some ground rules.
00:21:09Was I a bad boy?
00:21:12Rule one.
00:21:15Shirts.
00:21:18I feel targeted.
00:21:20Rule two.
00:21:22No flirting.
00:21:25Okay, so shirts are mandatory.
00:21:29No flirting.
00:21:31Anything else?
00:21:31I need this job.
00:21:36I don't have a backup plan, or a trust fund, or a safety net.
00:21:40So, this thing, whatever it is, if it starts getting in the way of the work,
00:21:49I walk.
00:21:51Okay.
00:21:53I mean it, Tucker.
00:21:55I believe you.
00:22:14I'm gonna go to bed now.
00:22:17Good night.
00:22:24Well, if it isn't PowerPoint Barbie.
00:22:38How is our resident accountability partner?
00:22:41Or wait, is it, um, handler with benefits?
00:22:49Aww.
00:22:50I mean, don't feel bad.
00:22:53We all play our part.
00:22:54Some of us cheer from the sidelines.
00:22:58Others just, um, warm the bench.
00:23:03Just doing my part to disinfect the desperation.
00:23:09Skank.
00:23:10You good?
00:23:37You so much is breathe wrong in her direction again.
00:23:39The only person you're gonna be doing PR for on this team is the mascot.
00:23:43You can't possibly be taking her side.
00:23:46You know, she's just using you to get rich and famous.
00:23:48Save it, Jules.
00:23:49The only person here who's cloud chasing is you.
00:23:55This isn't over.
00:24:00What are you waiting for?
00:24:02Go!
00:24:03Walk!
00:24:09Let's get you changed out of that shirt.
00:24:16What are you doing?
00:24:33What are you doing?
00:24:34Giving you something dry to wear.
00:24:43Oh!
00:24:52Hold on.
00:25:00Go!
00:25:01I can fight my own battles.
00:25:25I know.
00:25:27But sometimes it's nice to know you don't have to.
00:25:29Well, thanks.
00:25:38You, uh, you wear that dangerously well.
00:25:44Careful.
00:25:47You're getting awfully close to flirting.
00:25:51I thought that was against the rules.
00:25:54It is.
00:25:59Keep the room in five.
00:26:10Cold tub's on deck.
00:26:14Guess that's our cue.
00:26:17Yeah.
00:26:18Guess so.
00:26:18Pack your bags.
00:26:36Excuse me?
00:26:37We've got a game in Vegas.
00:26:38Sunday.
00:26:39Team playing these in an hour.
00:26:41I need you with me.
00:26:43Vegas?
00:26:44To the city.
00:26:45Neon.
00:26:46Nightclubs.
00:26:47No beautiful tattoos.
00:26:48If there ever was a time I needed an accountability department, it's there.
00:26:53I can handle the bright lights.
00:26:55I can handle the pressure.
00:26:57But if anyone finds out who I really am, I'm finished.
00:27:01Could I get the key to my room?
00:27:12Forgot to tell you.
00:27:13Hotels over boats.
00:27:15Just one room.
00:27:25I'll take the king.
00:27:26You can take the couch.
00:27:28Generous.
00:27:28I'm nothing if not chivalrous.
00:27:33Okay.
00:27:34I have had apartments smaller than this room.
00:27:37Some of the guys are hitting the strip.
00:27:40A couple of drinks.
00:27:41Blackjack.
00:27:42Just team bonding.
00:27:44Team bonding.
00:27:45Is that what we're calling it now?
00:27:51You are not going anywhere.
00:27:57Oh, really?
00:27:58You're locking me in now.
00:28:01If that's what it takes.
00:28:07Go put on sweats.
00:28:08I'm ordering room service.
00:28:10You are getting hot tea and a 9 p.m. bedtime.
00:28:13And what if I misbehave?
00:28:15Then I'll have to punish you.
00:28:17And not the new overlay.

00:36:51My dad had a bit of a temper.
00:36:53He had a road rage incident.
00:36:55Some guy cut him off and he completely lost it.
00:37:00We've all been there.
00:37:02Usually I at least nick it to the second day before I end up in jail.
00:37:06This is not a date.
00:37:08It'd be a pretty good story to tell the kids don't for months.
00:37:15The video gets out of this. I'm finished.
00:37:18I didn't see anyone with their phones out.
00:37:21It'll think I was alright.
00:37:22Good. People will see you defending an innocent woman from a violent creep.
00:37:28Do you think I'm the last cause?
00:37:31No.
00:37:32I think you're used to people treating you like one.
00:37:36So you act like you are.
00:37:45Sorry for pulling you into this mess.
00:37:51You didn't.
00:37:53I walked right in.
00:37:55Eyes wide open.
00:37:56I'm murdered.
00:37:58You made bail.
00:38:05Wow.
00:38:07Look at you two.
00:38:09Just like prom night.
00:38:11Not that you'd know.
00:38:16Jules, how did you...
00:38:16You're welcome, by the way.
00:38:19You'll be out of here in a minute.
00:38:21You, on the other hand, can enjoy your complimentary night in the slammer.
00:38:27What?
00:38:30You're not even under contract with the team.
00:38:33I mean, you're an intern.
00:38:35Now, you're a liability.
00:38:37HR will reach out with an email in the morning.
00:38:39I mean, spoiler alert, you're fired.
00:38:44She was defending yourself.
00:38:45And you were defending her, blah, blah, blah.
00:38:49She's not staying here.
00:38:51Okay, well, I only brought enough cash for one of you, so...
00:38:55Okay, then I stay too.
00:38:58Excuse me?
00:38:59If she goes down for this, so do I.
00:39:02You're really willing to blow up your career, your entire future, for her?
00:39:07You're damn right I would.
00:39:09Either both of us walk out of here, or neither of us do.
00:39:18Fine.
00:39:20Have it your way.
00:39:22But just remember, what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas.
00:39:28Well, that is a road trip I would like to forget.
00:39:49I still feel like I smell like other people's bad decisions.
00:39:52That jail cell, that was worse than the team locker room after two-a-days in the dead of August.

01:04:06maybe he'll think twice before blowing me up
01:04:10Maybe he'll think twice before blowing me off next time.
01:04:32Are you sleeping with the intern?
01:04:36You violated your morality clause, so you're suspended.
01:04:40Indefinitely.
01:04:47Tucker, I'm so sorry. This is because of me.
01:04:50No. This is because someone's trying to ruin me.
01:04:54And they used you to do it.
01:04:59They think that I'm the same screw-up that I used to be.
01:05:04They're trying to protect everything that I worked for and burn it down.
01:05:08I should go.
01:05:12I need to get out of here.
01:05:14You don't have to leave, Samira.
01:05:16You didn't do anything wrong.
01:05:18If you walk out that door, they win.
01:05:22Sometimes you need another one to pump and life to play another down.
01:05:26What the hell do you want from me?
01:05:36Sit down.
01:05:38You just signed your old man's death warrant.
01:05:42That video wasn't my fault.
01:05:44You think I wanted this to happen?
01:05:46What I think doesn't matter.
01:05:48What matters is there's seven figures riding on the Sentinels winning this weekend's playoff game.
01:05:52And now their number one red zone threat is suspended.
01:05:56If Tucker doesn't play, they'd kill me.
01:05:58That's not my problem.
01:06:00It is now.
01:06:01Because if I go down, they're not just coming for me.
01:06:05They're coming for you and him.
01:06:07It's...
01:06:26They're coming for you and him.
