00:00:01Three seconds left on the clock.
00:00:05Boo!
00:00:06Boo!
00:00:22Touchdown, Tuken Yusum.
00:00:28Goddammit!
00:00:30This is your fault!
00:00:31Your cheeks!
00:00:33Walking curse!
00:00:34I should have known when your mother left!
00:00:36Bad luck's in your bones!
00:00:39What do you mean, my fault?
00:00:44Dad, did you have the game?
00:00:45That touchdown just cost me my last hundred K!
00:00:50Your last hundred K?
00:00:53That was my life savings for my future, for-
00:00:56What?!
00:00:58I was saving up so I could do my internship with the Sentinels.
00:01:02It's my first day today.
00:01:07The Sentinels?
00:01:10Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:01:11Leon the Hitman Rivers?
00:01:16The Linebacker paralyzed their EMVP with a dirty hit.
00:01:22And who was banned for life.
00:01:25I'm using a different last name.
00:01:28You think a fake last name's got a fool in one?
00:01:38You're a universe.
00:01:40You're my flesh and blood.
00:01:44The pizza's cold.
00:01:46I'm gonna-
00:01:50No.
00:01:52I am nothing like you.
00:01:54And I never will be!
00:01:56It's not like anyone's gonna miss you.
00:01:58You're a worthless loser.
00:02:01Then you beat my ball.
00:02:02Get 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.
00:02:19I have to hide my identity.
00:02:22At any cost.
00:02:28To the haters!
00:02:35You'll lose some!
00:02:39I'm stuck!
00:02:48Oh!
00:02:52Oh!
00:02:57He's a mess.
00:02:59But messes make headlines.
00:03:01And headlines fill stadiums.
00:03:05We bring him in.
00:03:07Rehab his image.
00:03:08Make him look good.
00:03:10Make me look good.
00:03:12This isn't the first time that he's gotten into trouble like this.
00:03:18He's got anger management issues.
00:03:20And heat.
00:03:21The right story turns him from chaos into a comeback.
00:03:27More like a liability.
00:03:29Well that's what the morality clause is for.
00:03:31And the accountability partner.
00:03:33E.
00:03:46Damn.
00:03:48You tackle harder than half the league.
00:03:51Tucker and you sir?
00:03:53Let me guess.
00:03:55You're a fan.
00:03:56You do trend every week.
00:03:58But not for football.
00:03:59Bar fights.
00:04:00Suspensions.
00:04:01An Instagram feed that reaches $25 at all.
00:04:05Sponsors see it as radioactive.
00:04:09So I'm guessing that's a hard no on the autograph then.
00:04:13But if we pivot now.
00:04:14Lean into redemption.
00:04:17Vulnerability.
00:04:17Carefully curious to come back.
00:04:20You're not just back in the league.
00:04:22You're bigger than Travis Kelsey.
00:04:25Samir Ri...
00:04:28Richards.
00:04:29PR intern.
00:04:31Well shit.
00:04:32Most people just ask for a selfie.
00:04:35Welcome to the team.
00:04:37Intern.
00:04:37Intern.
00:04:55Did she just call me?
00:04:57Radio app.
00:05:07Well, well.
00:05:09You must be the charity hire.
00:05:11I'm Samir.
00:05:12I know who you are.
00:05:16I told HR I needed a superstar, not a sentient STD with a LinkedIn profile.
00:05:29Mop it up.
00:05:34Better yet.
00:05:36Lick it off the floor like the worthless gutter trash that you have.
00:05:44Also.
00:05:45Those shoes.
00:05:46Trash it.
00:05:52Trash it.
00:05:53No, no, no.
00:05:54Wait!
00:06:02We are through.
00:06:05To have Tucker here.
00:06:07With the right support system, we believe he can help us win a championship.
00:06:13Which is why we've selected an accountability partner for him to keep him focused on football.
00:06:22Me.
00:06:34Sorry, I'm late.
00:06:36Uh, please...
00:06:37Don't mind her.
00:06:39She's barely house trained, but we're working on it.
00:06:46So, as I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted.
00:06:51I want her.
00:06:55You mean the intern?
00:07:02Excuse me?
00:07:03What do you say, partner?
00:07:14Hey, intern.
00:07:15Slow down.
00:07:19You can't just point at someone and make them your babysitter.
00:07:23I always had a thing for my babysitters.
00:07:27Why me?
00:07:28I don't know.
00:07:29There was just something about you when we met before.
00:07:33So you thought I looked pathetic and felt sorry for me?
00:07:37Great.
00:07:38Nope.
00:07:39I thought you looked like someone who doesn't put up with bullshit.
00:07:42And I come with a lot of it.
00:07:45So what exactly did you expect me to do?
00:07:48Keep me out of the headlines.
00:07:49Unless the good ones.
00:07:51Let me stop you right there.
00:07:52I'm not your nanny, or your emotional support human, or your PR fairy godmother.
00:07:58I am a strategist.
00:08:00That means you don't speak, drink, post, or flirt sideways without my approval.
00:08:06Got it?
00:08:08You scared me a little.
00:08:15I kinda like it.
00:08:19Okay.
00:08:22My job isn't to follow you around with duct tape and a fire extinguisher.
00:08:26That actually sounds pretty fun.
00:08:29I am serious.
00:08:31So am I.
00:08:32We want the same thing.
00:08:34You keep me clean, you look like a PR genius.
00:08:37Win-win.
00:08:40And if you don't?
00:08:42We both go down.
00:08:58Hello?
00:08:59Saw you on the TV.
00:09:02New job.
00:09:03New clothes.
00:09:04New name.
00:09:06And suddenly you act like we're done.
00:09:09You don't get to erase me.
00:09:12We're not finished, Samira.
00:09:14Not.
00:09:15Not.
00:09:16Close.
00:09:22Oh, look who's acting like she owns the place.
00:09:27You think you're special because he picked you?
00:09:32You're a temp with a clipboard.
00:09:35Office clutter and, oh my god, clearance heels?
00:09:38You do not belong here.
00:09:40I didn't ask for this.
00:09:42Oh, hun.
00:09:43I see what you're up to.
00:09:47But let me tell you who Tucker picks.
00:09:51Boss.
00:09:52Bombshells.
00:09:52And boss bitches.
00:09:54And you are neither.
00:09:57Well, maybe he's tired of that type.
00:09:59Trust me.
00:10:00He's not.
00:10:02You are just the latest rehab prop in his redemption arc.
00:10:06And you'll be gone the minute his jersey sales spike like a bad case of herpes.
00:10:11Oh my god.
00:10:13So enjoy your little Cinderella moment.
00:10:16Because when midnight strikes, I'll be the one still holding his.
00:10:22Boss.
00:10:24And you?
00:10:25You'll still be in your dollar store blazer dumpster diving for gay old Taco Bell.
00:10:30You finished?
00:10:32Oh, I am just getting started.
00:10:36Hey intern.
00:10:39I almost forgot.
00:10:42Tucker who?
00:10:43Hi.
00:10:44We were just giving Samira a warm welcome.
00:10:51There's an owner's dinner tonight.
00:10:54Thought you could keep me accountable.
00:11:01They could wear this.
00:11:04I'm not an escort.
00:11:06I know.
00:11:07More like a chaperone.
00:11:09And I need to be at my best behavior.
00:11:11She doesn't even own evening wear.
00:11:13You'll embarrass yourself.
00:11:15Not in that she won't.
00:11:17I know.
00:11:19I know.
00:11:19I know.
00:11:26I know.
00:11:27Yeah.
00:11:28I know.
00:11:31I know.
00:11:33You're gonna stand there all night?
00:11:34Come on, baby.
00:11:40Ow.
00:11:56Well, damn, intern.
00:11:59Remind me to pick out all your outfits from home.
00:12:04Remind yourself to check the price tag next time.
00:12:07This costs more than my student wants.
00:12:10And let's get one thing straight.
00:12:12Tonight isn't about us.
00:12:14You're here to charm, smile, and not end up on page six.
00:12:23If you're gonna stare at me like that, I might start to think you like me.
00:12:29This is strictly...
00:12:32...a business.
00:12:38Boss.
00:12:54We're gonna be late.
00:13:07We're gonna do something.
00:13:09He's a locker room liability.
00:13:11He's not here to win games.
00:13:12He's here to keep TMZ in business.
00:13:22It's their job to stir the pot.
00:13:24But still, it's brutal.
00:13:28You do this long enough, and you start to believe the version of yourself at this hour.
00:13:34Bad boy.
00:13:36Locker room cancer.
00:13:38Walking head line.
00:13:40Figured screw it.
00:13:41Might as well just live 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
00:13:53over.
00:13:55Not just this contract.
00:13:58My career.
00:14:01You're not the only one trying to outrun a part of yourself.
00:14:17Is that your new girlfriend, Tucker?
00:14:20Well, that's gonna take a while.
00:14:24That's his intern, PR Rehab.
00:14:27She won't last long.
00:14:34Good heavens, myself!
00:14:39That's the commissioner's wife.
00:14:43That's why charity cases like her stay behind the rope.
00:14:46Yeah!
00:14:57He's being dead.
00:15:02Okay.
00:15:06Care to explain why the commissioner is demanding an apology?
00:15:10And a new dress for his wife?
00:15:13She's clearly unbelowned. She doesn't belong in these settings. I tried to tell you.
00:15:18Well, this is your idea, Miss. Fix it, or I'll pull your contract.
00:15:23I'll resign.
00:15:25She's not going anywhere.
00:15:30You said I need to handle her. I chose her. She goes, I go.
00:15:39You're seriously going to jeopardize your comeback. For an intern.
00:15:45What can I say? I thrive on chaos.
00:15:55Hey, wait up!
00:15:59My god, sorry.
00:16:03We have to stop this.
00:16:06I don't know.
00:16:16Reris.
00:16:19I thought you lost them bitches.
00:16:30Tucker can't know who I really am.
00:16:33Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:16:34We are the Hitman Nurse.
00:16:38The linebacker who paralyzed every 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.
00:16:54Richards is my mom's maiden name. I use it sometimes. I guess it makes me feel closer to her.
00:17:02Sure.
00:17:05Makes sense. As long as you're not secretly in witness protection or something.
00:17:12Can I walk you to your car?
00:17:16I, uh, forgot something. You go ahead. I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:20I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:20Mm-hm.
00:17:21Okay.
00:17:23I'll see you later.
00:17:25Okay.
00:17:44Hello?
00:17:44Hello?
00:17:55Oh!
00:18:01Oh!
00:18:02Sorry!
00:18:07I didn't see anything.
00:18:10Okay, you can cry, or you can suck it up and pretend you still have a career, and your dignity.
00:18:17Please, practically sell my credit score.
00:18:23Uh, how long?
00:18:26It's just, uh, you got kicked out of my house.
00:18:36Yeah.
00:18:37Thank you, thanks.
00:18:39What?
00:18:40You're moving in.
00:18:41With me.
00:18:43Tucker, no, that's not-
00:18:4524-7 means 24-7.
00:18:47You can't do your job if you're showering in a supply closet.
00:18:52It's more like a haunted boiler room.
00:18:56I appreciate it, but I don't need your pity.
00:18:59It's not pity.
00:19:01It's just practical.
00:19:03You can't keep me accountable if you're squatty in a tea mock room.
00:19:10Yeah.
00:19:18Alright.
00:19:26Thanks.
00:19:32I'm sorry.
00:19:35This is how you feel.
00:19:35Great.
00:19:36Who me?
00:20:02Oh, Jesus.
00:20:04Sorry.
00:20:05I didn't know anyone was...
00:20:07It's my house.
00:20:08You're the one sneaking around like him.
00:20:11I couldn't.
00:20:13I wasn't sneaking.
00:20:15I was...
00:20:17hydrating.
00:20:25You could really use some better snacks.
00:20:28Take the cabinets.
00:20:30I wasn't staring, by the way.
00:20:33I never said you were.
00:20:35Good.
00:20:36Because I wasn't.
00:20:46Still not staring?
00:20:48Uh...
00:20:49You're...
00:20:50Weaking.
00:20:52Sweat.
00:20:52You're...
00:20:53It's...
00:20:54Distracting.
00:20:57I'll try to be less distracting.
00:21:04Look.
00:21:05If we're gonna live together, we should probably set some ground rules.
00:21:10Was I a bad boy?
00:21:13Rule one.
00:21:15Shirts.
00:21:16Shirts.
00:21:18I feel targeted.
00:21:20Rule two.
00:21:22No flirting.
00:21:25Okay.
00:21:26So...
00:21:27Shirts are mandatory.
00:21:29And no flirting.
00:21:31Anything else?
00:21:33I need this job.
00:21:36I don't have a backup plan or a trust fund or a safety net.
00:21:41So...
00:21:42This thing.
00:21:43Whatever it is.
00:21:45If it starts getting in the way of the work...
00:21:49I walk.
00:21:51Okay.
00:21:54I mean it, Tucker.
00:21:56I believe you.
00:22:15I'm gonna go to bed now.
00:22:17Good night.
00:22:33Well...
00:22:34If it isn't PowerPoint Barbie...
00:22:38How is our resident accountability partner?
00:22:41Or wait, is it, um...
00:22:43Handler with benefits?
00:22:49Aww.
00:22:51I mean, don't feel bad.
00:22:53We all play our part.
00:22:55Some guys cheer from the sidelines.
00:22:58Others just, um...
00:23:01On the bench.
00:23:03Just doing my part...
00:23:05To disinfect...
00:23:08The desperation.
00:23:09Skank.
00:23:13Oh!
00:23:15Oh!
00:23:21Oh!
00:23:31Oh!
00:23:33You good?
00:23:37You so much as Bree'd run in her direction again.
00:23:40The only person you're gonna be doing PR for on this team is the master.
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.
00:24:01What are you waiting for?
00:24:03Go!
00:24:04Walk!
00:24:15Let's get you changed out of that shirt.
00:24:33What are you doing?
00:24:35What are you doing?
00:24:35Giving you something dry to wear.
00:24:51You stupid.
00:25:01You were doing my stunt check if I don't have your apartment.
00:25:02Bye-bye.
00:25:03Bye-bye.
00:25:03Bye-bye.
00:25:05Bye-bye.
00:25:05Hey, bye-bye.
00:25:05Bye-bye.
00:25:19I can fight my own battles.
00:25:26I know.
00:25:27But sometimes it's nice to know you don't have to.
00:25:32Well, thanks.
00:25:38You, uh, you wear that dangerously well.
00:25:44Careful.
00:25:48You're getting awfully close to flirting.
00:25:51I thought that was against the rules.
00:25:54It is.
00:26:08Keep the room in five.
00:26:10Cold tub's on deck.
00:26:14Guess that's our cue.
00:26:16Yeah.
00:26:18Guess so.
00:26:33Pack your bags.
00:26:36Excuse me?
00:26:37We've got a game in Vegas.
00:26:38Sunday.
00:26:39Team plan leads in an hour.
00:26:42I need you with me.
00:26:43Vegas?
00:26:44To the city.
00:26:45Neon.
00:26:46Nightclubs.
00:26:47Averbal tattoos.
00:26:48If there ever was a time I needed an accountability partner, it's there.
00:26:53I can handle the bright lights.
00:26:55I can handle the pressure.
00:26:56But if anyone finds out who I really am, I'm finished.
00:27:11Could I get the key to my room?
00:27:13Forgot to tell you.
00:27:14Hotels over boats.
00:27:16Just one room.
00:27:26I'll take the king.
00:27:27You can take the couch.
00:27:29Generous.
00:27:31I'm nothing if not chivalrous.
00:27:34Okay.
00:27:35I have had apartments smaller than this room.
00:27:39Some of the guys are hitting the strip.
00:27:41A couple of drinks.
00:27:42Blackjack.
00:27:43Just team bonding.
00:27:45Team bonding.
00:27:46Is that what we're calling it now?
00:27:49Mm-hmm.
00:27:52You are not going anywhere.
00:27:59Oh, really?
00:28:00You're locking me in now?
00:28:03If that's what it takes.
00:28:10Gupanosos.
00:28:11I'm ordering room service.
00:28:12You are getting hot tea and a 9 p.m. bedtime.
00:28:16And what if I misbehave?
00:28:17Then I'll have to punish you.
00:28:19And not be lovely.
00:28:35What?
00:28:37You just accomplished something.
00:29:01What is it?
00:29:03Just the guys checking in.
00:29:05You should probably get some sleep.
00:29:10The Glitter Pit.
00:29:14You win the game tomorrow.
00:29:15You are not going to a strip club.
00:29:16And what are you going to do?
00:29:18Stay up all night, keep and watch on me?
00:29:21I don't know if I have to.
00:29:23Suit yourself.
00:29:29Oh, just so you know.
00:29:36This is how I sleep.
00:29:37Since you're always get used to it.
00:29:44Great.
00:29:45Now I have to sleep in the same room as his abs.
00:30:14I could get used to waking up like this.
00:30:16But he doesn't know the truth about me.
00:30:19Or the last name I'm hiding.
00:30:20Which is exactly why I can't.
00:30:32So, that was a fun single.
00:30:35We slept.
00:30:36That's it.
00:30:38Won't happen again.
00:30:54There's a breakfast buffet.
00:30:56Heard the protein pancakes are pretty sick.
00:30:59You'd eat drywall if it had enough protein in it.
00:31:03So, I will watch it as a surprisingly good.
00:31:05We don't have to know about it.
00:31:09Samira.
00:31:10Didn't expect to see you in Vegas.
00:31:14Eli, what are you doing here?
00:31:17Who are you?
00:31:19I'm her ex.
00:31:27Oh, no.
00:31:28If Eli reveals who my dad is, that's it.
00:31:32Game over.
00:31:33Eli, I didn't know you were covering this game.
00:31:37Yeah, I got bumped up from the podcast to on camera this week.
00:31:41I guess I finally impressed someone.
00:31:43What are you doing here?
00:31:45I've been training for the Sentinels.
00:31:48Working with Tucker.
00:31:51What?
00:31:52You got a problem with that?
00:31:54No.
00:31:54Not at all.
00:31:56I'm just surprised to see you trading your career ambitions for babysitting.
00:32:01Wow.
00:32:02And they let you be on camera with that personality.
00:32:04Coming from a guy whose entire personality is catches balls.
00:32:12Okay, boys.
00:32:13I think that is enough testosterone for one buffet.
00:32:19We should get something.
00:32:21You know, honestly, I'm surprised they even mentioned you're going with your last name.
00:32:39Your ex.
00:32:40Always like that.
00:32:41Yeah.
00:32:42Easy.
00:32:43Huge asshole.
00:32:45And what did he mean?
00:32:47About your last name?
00:32:55Team Bus departs in 15!
00:32:59We've got a game in a few hours.
00:33:01You need to stay focused.
00:33:03No distractions.
00:33:04There you go again.
00:33:06Always trying to control the story.
00:33:07That is literally my job.
00:33:10That is literally my job.
00:33:20Club's already hopping.
00:33:27Going out.
00:33:31I'm going out.
00:33:32I'm going out.
00:33:32Some of the guys are grabbing drinks to celebrate the win.
00:33:36Nothing crazy.
00:33:42You left your own devices in Sin City?
00:33:45I don't think so.
00:33:46I don't think so.
00:33:47I'm coming.
00:33:49You want to keep an eye on me or you just don't want to miss out on some fun?
00:33:58I'm not here to have fun.
00:34:03We'll see about that.
00:34:05Ender.
00:34:23Tried not to get recognized every five feet?
00:34:27No promises.
00:34:28Fame is a burden I carry.
00:34:30Crazy.
00:34:32Do you dance or would that be too much?
00:34:35Depends.
00:34:36Are you going to try something stupid?
00:34:38Almost definitely.
00:34:56Tucker Newsome.
00:34:57You're going to have your autograph.
00:34:59Give me two seconds.
00:35:01Jill, be right back.
00:35:08You with the tight end?
00:35:11I'm good.
00:35:12Thanks.
00:35:13That's not what I asked.
00:35:15I said I'm good.
00:35:17Hey, come on.
00:35:19Don't be like that.
00:35:20I'd like to see your tight end.
00:35:23Come on!
00:35:29What the hell is wrong with you, bitch?
00:35:43Hitting a woman.
00:35:44Not cool.
00:35:45What the hell?
00:35:46I'm going to have to call unnecessary roughness on that play.
00:35:50Apologize to her.
00:35:51Screw you!
00:35:53One, two, three.
00:35:56One, two, three.
00:36:00You okay?
00:36:02Hey!
00:36:03Hands where I can see them!
00:36:06Yep.
00:36:07And that is what you call assault.
00:36:11You got to be kidding me.
00:36:12It was self-defense.
00:36:14Now!
00:36:21Wait.
00:36:22Don't I know you?
00:36:23You bailed your old man out of the slammer.
00:36:26Like father, like daughter.
00:36:28Listen to me about it.
00:36:29What is he talking about?
00:36:47The lying backer who paralyzed there.
00:36:50We have a VP with a dirty head.
00:36:52Like father, like daughter.
00:36:54My dad had a bit of a temper.
00:36:57He had a road rage incident.
00:36:59Some guy cut him off and he completely lost it.
00:37:04We've all been there.
00:37:06Usually I at least make it to the second date before I live in jail.
00:37:10This is not a date.
00:37:12It would be a pretty good story to tell the kids to have the puns.
00:37:15Hmm.
00:37:19Video gets out of this.
00:37:20I'm finished.
00:37:22I didn't see anyone with their phones out.
00:37:25It'll come out somewhere.
00:37:26Good.
00:37:27People will see you defending an innocent woman from a violent creep.
00:37:32Do you think I'm the last cause?
00:37:35No.
00:37:36I think you're used to people treating you like one.
00:37:40So you act like you are.
00:37:51Sorry for pulling you into this mess.
00:37:55You did it.
00:37:57I walked right in.
00:37:59Eyes wide open.
00:38:02You made battle.
00:38:09Wow.
00:38:11Look at you two.
00:38:13Just like prom night.
00:38:16Not that you'd know.
00:38:19Jules, how did you...
00:38:20You're welcome, by the way.
00:38:22You'll be out of here in a minute.
00:38:25You, on the other hand, can enjoy your complimentary night in the slammer.
00:38:31What?
00:38:34You're not even under contract with the team.
00:38:37I mean, you're an intern.
00:38:38Now, you're a liability.
00:38:41HR will reach out with an email in the morning.
00:38:45Spoiler alert.
00:38:46You're fired.
00:38:48She was defending us.
00:38:49And you were defending her.
00:38:51Blah, blah, blah.
00:38:52She's not staying in here.
00:38:55Okay, well, I only brought enough cash for one of you, so...
00:38:59Okay.
00:38:59Then I stay, too.
00:39:02Excuse me?
00:39:03If she goes down for this, so do I.
00:39:05You're really willing to blow up your career, your entire future, for her?
00:39:11You're damn right I would.
00:39:13Either both of us walk out of here, or neither of us do.
00:39:22Fine.
00:39:24Have it your way.
00:39:26But just remember, what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas.
00:39:46Oh, well, that is a road trip I would like to forget.
00:39:52I still feel like I smoked up my old bad decisions.
00:39:57That jail cell, that was worse than the team locker room after two-a-days in the day of August.
00:40:07When we get home, I need a shower.
00:40:09Like, an exorcism-level shower.
00:40:12Just don't use all the hot water, please.
00:40:39You know there's eight bathrooms in the house, right?
00:40:42Yeah, but this one's the ones.
00:40:46Happy when.
00:41:24Oh my God.
00:41:25Jesus.
00:41:27Why did this just turn into a cool bunch?
00:41:29This fancy mansion has a broken water here.
00:41:33Let's get up.
00:41:54It's Gus Marwood, the owner of the team.
00:41:57Why are you whispering?
00:42:02Gus, what a pleasant surprise.
00:42:05Tucker, listen, hey, I know it's last minute, but I called in a favor and I got you booked on
00:42:11the number one football podcast.
00:42:13It'll be great for you to reintroduce yourself to your fans, the new and improved Tucker Newsome.
00:42:20A podcast?
00:42:23Yeah, sure, let's do it.
00:42:26Great. Look, it's also streaming live on YouTube.
00:42:302 p.m. Soundworks downtown. Make me proud.
00:42:33Don't let me down.
00:42:49Mr. Hearsome.
00:42:50They're ready for you in Studio B. Please follow me.
00:42:55Just stick to the talking points.
00:42:57I'll give the internet a reason to cancel you.
00:43:00It's going to be 45 minutes of softballs.
00:43:02I got this.
00:43:08I'm her ex.
00:43:16And here he is, right on time.
00:43:34All right, folks, we're live here.
00:43:36Tucker Newsome, two-time pro bowler and brand new Seattle Sentinel.
00:43:40Thanks for joining us.
00:43:44Wouldn't miss it, man.
00:43:45Big fan of the pod.
00:43:49Let's get right into it.
00:43:50You've had an interest in a couple of years.
00:43:53How would you describe this chapter of your career?
00:43:56Focused.
00:43:57Humble.
00:43:58Ugly.
00:43:59Hmm.
00:43:59That's new.
00:44:02A lot of fans are surprised the Sentinels are taking a chance on you.
00:44:05Some even saying it's a PR stunt.
00:44:07What do you think about that?
00:44:09It's fair?
00:44:10People can say what they want.
00:44:12I'm here to win games.
00:44:15The winning's never been your problem, has it?
00:44:19It's everything that happens off the field.
00:44:22Let's talk about the suspensions.
00:44:26Block lights and the blinds.
00:44:28I mean, one of the most talented tight ends in the league.
00:44:32It's the most volatile.
00:44:34People like to call you the league's favorite cautionary tale.
00:44:37I've made mistakes.
00:44:39I've owned them.
00:44:40And I'm doing the work to be better.
00:44:44To last week at the Vegas nightclub.
00:44:49Is that part of the work?
00:44:56Was that another example of your temper getting better?
00:44:59Then I was here to talk about football.
00:45:08Can we take five?
00:45:25Tucker, stop.
00:45:26Tucker, wait.
00:45:28Stop.
00:45:29This is a trap.
00:45:31He's not interviewing me.
00:45:33He's trying to humiliate me.
00:45:34I know.
00:45:35But that is exactly why you cannot lose it in there.
00:45:37You heard what you said.
00:45:39I did.
00:45:40But if you're fired back, he wins.
00:45:44If you keep your cool,
00:45:46you walk out of here the guy people root for again.
00:45:49Give me your phone.
00:45:51Trust me.
00:46:00What do you think?
00:46:04I'll sit behind the glass and I'll talk to you through it.
00:46:07You don't have to go through this alone.
00:46:11Let me help.
00:46:26All right, we are back.
00:46:28All right, we are back.
00:46:28Tucker, I'm sorry.
00:46:29Where were we?
00:46:29I'll talk to you through this.
00:46:34I'll talk to you through this.
00:46:35I'm sorry.
00:46:36I'm sorry.
00:46:37You're here.
00:46:38I'm sorry.
00:46:42I'm sorry.
00:46:43I'm sorry.
00:46:44a hand on a woman in front of me. So, no regrets.
00:46:50No people. Gratitude. This is your growth arc. Give them the headline you want.
00:46:57I've made mistakes, but I'm learning. I have people in my life now who push me to be better.
00:47:02Not just as a player, but as a man.
00:47:09He's rattled. Yes!
00:47:13You can keep judging. I'm just gonna keep moving forward.
00:47:30You were incredible in there. You were incredible.
00:47:35We made a pretty good team, didn't we? I could get used to that.
00:47:39What?
00:47:41You...
00:47:43Tell me what to do.
00:47:44You could tie it with a bag of them.
00:47:47Yeah.
00:47:59That's true.
00:48:00All my life I was looking for a sign.
00:48:05I wasn't sure where to find a peace of mind.
00:48:10It's okay.
00:48:12I'm gonna beat you.
00:48:16Oh, Star, Diane's sleeping with the intern? Now that's a scandal.
00:48:22Tucker, don't!
00:48:24I should knock your teeth out!
00:48:26Try me, Isom. You lay a hand on me. And this isn't just a front page story. This is a
00:48:32lawsuit, too.
00:48:34If you want a story, I'll give you one.
00:48:36Okay, I'm listening.
00:48:40Get the hell out of my house!
00:48:42And don't bother coming back, you ungrateful little bitch!
00:48:46Leon Rippers. Disgrace NFA Championship MVP. Banned for life for nearly killing a player on the field.
00:48:54Well, I know where he's been hiding. And he is in a new kind of trouble.
00:48:59In deep with the betting syndicate. Big names, big debt.
00:49:05That's quite the scoop.
00:49:08Delete the photos, and you have yourself an exclusive.
00:49:12Deal. No pictures here.
00:49:22What the hell was that?
00:49:24That was me saving your career.
00:49:26No, that was you knowing way too much about Leon Rivers. How?
00:49:34I wrote my senior thesis on him.
00:49:37Pure major, crisis comms.
00:49:39This case is textbook fame, violence, media spin, total brain meltdown.
00:49:44Right now, every ugly detail.
00:49:48Well, you saved my ass.
00:49:51Again, we need to be more careful.
00:49:55Right.
00:49:57You are just my accountability partner.
00:49:59That's it.
00:50:00No more late night, heart to hearts.
00:50:01No more mixed signals.
00:50:03We are just two people who are forced to be on the same team.
00:50:05Understood.
00:50:08I'm late for practice.
00:50:10You can take an Uber back to the office.
00:50:18Hello?
00:50:20So, my own daughter sold me out.
00:50:24You're gonna be sorry, you pathetic fucking cockroach!
00:50:39You've got a charity event tonight.
00:50:437pm, downtown, breast cancer awareness.
00:50:47Media will be there.
00:50:48Of course they will be.
00:50:50Which means I'll be there too.
00:50:52To manage optics.
00:50:54Nothing more.
00:50:55Fine.
00:50:57Good.
00:50:59Great.
00:51:12Smile.
00:51:13Let's try to avoid any controversy tonight.
00:51:17Well, well, well.
00:51:19Look who it is.
00:51:21Our golden boy.
00:51:24You clean up nice.
00:51:25I'm committed to turning the page, boss.
00:51:28See how long that lasts.
00:51:30He's actually been nothing but a professional.
00:51:32A model representative of the team.
00:51:36So far.
00:51:37We all know it's only a matter of time before he screws up again.
00:51:42Enjoy the evening.
00:51:48I don't believe that.
00:51:50Well, you know what they say.
00:51:52Zebra can't change its stripes.
00:51:56Well, look who it is.
00:51:59Long time no see.
00:52:03Long time no see.
00:52:05I didn't realize you were covering this.
00:52:07Oh yeah, last minute Simon.
00:52:09Cherry sentiment overpriced champagne.
00:52:11Most people love the production art.
00:52:13I've been watching the numbers on the podcast interview.
00:52:15Higher than any other episode we've done this season.
00:52:18Oh, you mean despite your best efforts that bait me into blowing it.
00:52:22That's fair.
00:52:23That's fair. I might have been a little aggressive.
00:52:26Try to get you to crack, but you didn't.
00:52:28This is not the story you want him to.
00:52:31It's becoming clear.
00:52:32Whatever you're doing to rehab his image, it's working.
00:52:36What's your anger?
00:52:38Believe it or not, I know what I've lost.
00:52:40I expected you to be a train wreck and your head is planted right at the station.
00:52:46Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us tonight in support of breast cancer research.
00:52:53The auction begins shortly.
00:52:55And for the first time ever, we're doing something a little different.
00:52:59Tonight's auction won't feature art or wine or vacation homes.
00:53:04Because tonight we're auctioning off the players.
00:53:11Because tonight we're auctioning off the players.
00:53:25That's right folks, tonight's prize isn't a vintage bottle of Chateau Margaux.
00:53:30It's a dinner date with the city's finest.
00:53:33And by fine, we mean really fine.
00:53:37First up, you know him, you love him.
00:53:39He has more touchdowns than the rest this month.
00:53:42Please welcome number 88, Tucker Newsome.
00:53:46Woo!
00:53:51Welcome Tucker.
00:53:53Looking very handsome.
00:53:57Tell us, what makes you the ideal date for one lucky bidder tonight?
00:54:01I'm Pong Chul, and I don't check my phone at dinner.
00:54:05Unless it's ESPN.
00:54:07Woo!
00:54:10A man who's present.
00:54:12We love it.
00:54:13Okay, lightning round.
00:54:15Dine in or take out?
00:54:17Cooking for two.
00:54:18I tried.
00:54:20Tattooed or no?
00:54:21I guess.
00:54:22All earned.
00:54:27Boxers were briefs.
00:54:28I guess I'm just going to have to win the auction to find out.
00:54:36And one last thing before the bidding begins.
00:54:39Ladies, you didn't think we'd let him off the stage without making him work a little harder for it, did
00:54:44you?
00:54:45It is for charity, after all.
00:54:48Hit it!
00:54:49Yeah!
00:54:53Woo!
00:54:57Woo!
00:54:59Woo!
00:55:06Woo!
00:55:08Woo!
00:55:10Woo!
00:55:11Woo!
00:55:12Woo!
00:55:14Woo!
00:55:15Woo!
00:55:15Woo!
00:55:17Woo!

00:57:29Thanks.
00:57:32I guess watching your fake boyfriend get auctioned off to your real enemy wasn't exactly the plan
00:57:37tonight.
00:57:37He's not my fake anything.
00:57:39We worked together.
00:57:41That's it.
00:57:43Sorry.
00:57:43That was a bad joke.
00:57:44I was just trying to lighten the mood.
00:57:47He didn't even look back.
00:57:49Maybe he did.
00:57:50Maybe he just missed it.
00:57:52He walked right past me.
00:57:54Right out the door together.
00:57:57You know, if you want to talk or drink and forget about the night, I'm still a pretty
00:58:04good listener.
00:58:05You sure you're not just trying to get the next exclusive on, Tucker?
00:58:09Not tonight.
00:58:12Just one drink.
00:58:15Just one.
00:58:15You.
00:58:20All friends.
00:58:21To old friends.
00:58:21New beginnings.
00:58:53Well, I hit fast.
00:58:56Is he okay?
00:58:57Um, I just, uh, I think I need to lay down.
00:59:02All right, come on.
00:59:03There's a quiet room just off to the lobby.
00:59:05I'll take you there.
00:59:16What are you doing?
00:59:27I miss you, Sammy.
00:59:29We were so good together.
00:59:30Stop!
00:59:31It can be like when we first met.
00:59:34We couldn't keep our hands off each other, did you?
00:59:36No!
00:59:38No!
00:59:39Get your hands off!
00:59:42What the hell?
00:59:43We're in the middle of something.
00:59:45Decker?
00:59:47You sick son of a bitch!
00:59:55I'm sorry.
01:00:19What?
01:00:21What happened?
01:00:23You were drugged.
01:00:24Eli.
01:00:26What about your date with Jules?
01:00:28How did you...
01:00:29Didn't happen.
01:00:30Took her home.
01:00:31Dropped her off.
01:00:32I was just trying to make you jealous.
01:00:36Childish move.
01:00:38But the truth is...
01:00:41There was only one person I was up on that stage stripping for.
01:00:46You came back for me.
01:00:48Oh boy.
01:00:52Hype.
01:00:54No!
01:00:56No!
01:00:58No!
01:01:20Morning.
01:01:23Hi.
01:01:32What is it?
01:01:34I shouldn't be here.
01:01:35Too late for that.
01:01:37You are?
01:01:39Just tell him the truth about who you really are.
01:01:42If he cares about you, it won't matter.
01:01:56It was great.
01:01:58Embarrassment.
01:02:00He torched his career, hurt people.
01:02:02Dragged the game through the mud.
01:02:04That guy makes me sick.
01:02:09Sorry.
01:02:10You were saying?
01:02:13She said, please a cautionary tale.
01:02:17I would never want to do anything to jeopardize your comeback.
01:02:24Hey.
01:02:26Don't look away from this.
01:02:29For me.
01:02:31Whatever happens, we can deal with it.
01:02:34I'm making a mistake.
01:02:38Maybe.
01:02:40It's mine to make.
01:02:41I can't say that.
01:02:50I can't say that.
01:02:55You can't do anything to do anything.
01:02:56Who beat the camera?
01:02:59I can't be a friend of mine.
01:03:05I can't do anything I can do.
01:03:09I don't want to do anything to do anything.
