00:00:01Three seconds left on the clock.
00:00:04Boo! Boo!
00:00:22Touchdown, Tucker Newsome.
00:00:26God damn it!
00:00:30This is your fault! Your jeeks!
00:00:33Walking curse, I should have known when your mother left.
00:00:36Bad luck's in your bones!
00:00:39What do you mean, my fault?
00:00:41Wait.
00:00:43Then 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?
00:01:09Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:01:12Leon the Hitman Rivers?
00:01:16The linebacker paralyzed their EMVP with a dirty hit.
00:01:22A man who is 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 know?
00:01:40You're my flesh and blood.
00:01:44The pizza's cold.
00:01:46What the-
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.
00:02:01This is my fault.
00:02:03Get the hell out of my house!
00:02:05Don't bother for the 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.
00:02:21At any cost.
00:02:28To the haters!
00:02:35You'll lose some!
00:02:39You suck!
00:02:48Oh!
00:02:52You suck!
00:02:57He's a mess.
00:02:59But messes make headlines.
00:03:02And 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.
00:03:46Damn.
00:03:48You tackle harder than half the league.
00:03:51Tucker, 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 reads like a good fact at all.
00:04:05Sponsor C is radioactive.
00:04:09So I'm guessing that's a hard no on the autograph then.
00:04:13But if we pivot now, lean into redemption, vulnerability, carefully curing a comeback, you're not just back in the league.
00:04:21You're bigger than Travis Kelsey.
00:04:25Samir.
00:04:27Richard.
00:04:29Um.
00:04:30PR.
00:04:30Intern.
00:04:30Well shit.
00:04:32Most people just ask for a selfie.
00:04:35Welcome to the team.
00:04:37Intern.
00:04:54She just called me.
00:04:56Radio app.
00:05:07Well, well.
00:05:09You must be the charity hire.
00:05:11I'm Samir.
00:05:12Uh-huh.
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, lick it off the floor like the worthless gutter trash that you want.
00:05:44Also, those shoes.
00:05:46Trach it.
00:05:53No, no, no.
00:05:54Wait!
00:06:02We are blue.
00:06:05Good to have Tucker here.
00:06:06With 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-uh.
00:06:36Please.
00:06:37Don't mind her.
00:06:39She's barely house trained.
00:06:41But we're working on it.
00:06:46So.
00:06:47As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted.
00:06:50You did?
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.
00:07:18You can't just point at someone and make them your babysitter.
00:07:23I've 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.
00:07:44So what exactly do 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.
00:07:53I'm not your nanny.
00:07:54Or your emotional support human.
00:07:56Or 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 scare me a little.
00:08:15I kinda like it.
00:08:21My 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.
00:08:33You keep me clean, you look like a PR genius.
00:08:36Win-win.
00:08:40And if you don't?
00:08:42We both go down.
00:08:58Hello?
00:08:59Saw you on the TV.
00:09:01New job, new clothes, new 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 even close.
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, honey.
00:09:43I see what you're up to.
00:09:47But let me tell you who Tucker picks.
00:09:51Bombshells and boss bitches.
00:09:54And you are neither.
00:09:57Well, maybe he's tired of that type.
00:09:59Trust me.
00:10:01He's not.
00:10:01You 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.
00:10:17Because when midnight strikes, I'll be the one still holding his paws.
00:10:24And you, you'll still be in your dollar store blazer dumpster diving for day-old Taco Bell.
00:10:30You finished?
00:10:32Oh, I am just getting started.
00:10:35Hey, intern.
00:10:39I almost forgot.
00:10:42Tucky Poo.
00:10:43Hi.
00:10:44We were just giving Samira a warm welcome.
00:10:50There's an owner's dinner tonight.
00:10:53I thought 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.
00:11:15Nothing that she won't.
00:11:17Yeah.
00:11:32You gonna stand there all night?
00:11:40Oh.
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.
00:12:06This 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...
00:12:31This is strictly...
00:12:33A business.
00:12:37A boss.
00:12:38A business.
00:12:54We're gonna be late.
00:13:07Dr. Newsome.
00:13:08He'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...
00:13:25It'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 headline.
00:13:39Figured screw it.
00:13:41Might as well just live up to the rep.
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.
00:14:27Um, she won't last long.
00:14:34Good heavens, Mike.
00:14:38That's the commissioner's wife.
00:14:43That's why charity cases like her stay behind the rope.
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 overwhelmed.
00:15:15She doesn't belong in these settings.
00:15:16I tried to tell you.
00:15:18Well, this is your idea, Mason.
00:15:20Fix it.
00:15:20Or 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.
00:15:32I chose her.
00:15:34She goes.
00:15:35I go.
00:15:39You're seriously gonna jeopardize your comeback.
00:15:42For an intern.
00:15:44What can I say?
00:15:46I thrive on chaos.
00:15:55Hey, wait up!
00:15:57Oh!
00:15:59Michael!
00:16:00Sorry.
00:16:02We have to substitute them.
00:16:16Rivers.
00:16:19I thought you were on the pitchers.
00:16:21I thought you were on the pitchers.
00:16:22I thought you were on the pitchers.
00:16:30Tucker can't know who I really am.
00:16:32Do they know who you're the daughter of?
00:16:35Leon the Hitman Lewis?
00:16:39The linebacker can paralyze their MVP with a dirty hit.
00:16:45If he finds out, I lose this job, my future, everything.
00:16:50And I am back to waiting tables.
00:16:54Richards is my mom's maiden name.
00:16:56I use it sometimes.
00:16:57I guess it makes me feel closer to her.
00:17:02Sure.
00:17:05Makes sense.
00:17:07As long as you're not secretly in witness protection or something.
00:17:13Can I...
00:17:14Walk you to your car?
00:17:16I, uh...
00:17:17Forgot something.
00:17:18You go ahead.
00:17:19I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:20Okay.
00:17:43Hello?
00:17:44Hello?
00:17:45Hello?
00:17:54Oh.
00:18:00Oh!
00:18:02Oh, sorry.
00:18:07I didn't see anything.
00:18:09Okay, you can cry.
00:18:12Or you can suck it up and pretend you still have a career.
00:18:15And your dignity.
00:18:17Please.
00:18:18Practically sell my credit score.
00:18:24Uh, how long?
00:18:26It's just, uh...
00:18:29You got kicked out of my house.
00:18:36Yeah.
00:18:37Pack your things.
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 bidding.
00:19:00It's just practical.
00:19:03You can't keep me accountable if you're squatty in the team locker room.
00:19:11Don't do it.
00:19:17I'll do it.
00:19:18Wow.
00:19:21You're room is down the hall.
00:19:23First door on the left.
00:19:24Make yourself at home.
00:19:25But don't touch anything in the fridge labeled to you anymore. That means it's mine.
00:19:31Thanks. I can smell.
00:19:34Then we're gonna get along great, roommate.
00:20:01Oh, Jesus. Sorry. I didn't know anyone was...
00:20:07It's my house. You're the one sneaking around like it.
00:20:11I wasn't sneaking. I was...
00:20:17Hydrating.
00:20:25You could really use some better snacks.
00:20:27Take the candles.
00:20:30I wasn't staring, by the way.
00:20:33I never said you were.
00:20:35Good. Because I wasn't.
00:20:45Still not staring?
00:20:48Uh, you're leaking.
00:20:51Sweat, you're... it's distracting.
00:20:56I'll try to be less distracting.
00:21:04Look, if we're gonna live together, we should probably set some ground rules.
00:21:09Was I a bad boy?
00:21:12Rule one. Shirts.
00:21:18I feel targeted.
00:21:20Rule two. No flirting.
00:21:25Okay. So, shirts are mandatory.
00:21:29No 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.
00:21:40So, this thing, whatever it is, if it starts getting in the way of the work,
00:21:49I walk.
00:21:51I walk.
00:21:52Okay.
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, 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.
00:22:51I mean, don't feel bad.
00:22:53I mean, we all play our part.
00:22:55Some of us cheer from the sidelines, others just, um, on the bench.
00:23:03Just doing my part to disinfect the desperation.
00:23:09Skank.
00:23:32You good?
00:23:37You so much is breathe wrong in her direction again.
00:23:40The only person you're gonna be doing PR for on this team is the mascot.
00:23:43You can't possibly be taking your 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!
00:24:04Walk!
00:24:15Let's get you changed out of that shirt.
00:24:33What are you doing?
00:24:34Giving you something dry to wear.
00:25:20I can fight my own battles.
00:25:26I know.
00:25:26But 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.
00:25:47You're getting awfully close to flirty.
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.
00:26:14I guess 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.
00:26:41I need you waiting.
00:26:43Vegas?
00:26:44To the city.
00:26:45Neon, nightclubs, available 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 books.
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?
00:27:52You are not going anywhere.
00:27:59Oh, really?
00:28:00You're locking me in now?
00:28:03If that's what it takes.
00:28:09Go put on sweats.
00:28:10I'm ordering room service.
00:28:12You are getting hot tea and a 9pm bedtime.
00:28:16And what if I misbehave?
00:28:17Then I'll have to punish you.
00:28:19And not be all right.
00:28:21I love it.
00:28:35What?
00:28:37He just accomplished something.
00:28:40Mm-hmm.
00:28:42Oh.
00:29:00What is it?
00:29:02Just the guys checking in.
00:29:05You should probably get some sleep.
00:29:10The Glitter Pit?
00:29:14You live a game tomorrow. You are not going to a strip club.
00:29:16And what are you going to do?
00:29:18Stay up all night keeping watch on me?
00:29:20I 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 since you are. Just get used to it.
00:29:44Great.
00:29:45Now I have to sleep in the same room as his house.
00:30:14I could get used to waking up like this.
00:30:17But he doesn't know things.
00:30:18He 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.
00:30:30So.
00:30:32That was a fun single.
00:30:34Cool.
00:30:35He slept.
00:30:36That's it.
00:30:37Won'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.
00:31:02It's drywall actually has a surprisingly good amino acid really well.
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?
00:31:18I'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.
00:31:55I'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, I 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 building with your last name.
00:32:39Your ex, always like that?
00:32:41Yeah.
00:32:42He's a huge 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.
00:33:05I was trying to control the story.
00:33:08That is literally my job.
00:33:20Club's already hopping.
00:33:27Going out?
00:33:33Some 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'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, intern.
00:34:23I tried not to get recognized every five feet.
00:34:26No promises.
00:34:28Fame is a burden I carry.
00:34:30Braitha.
00:34:32You dance or would that be tense?
00:34:35Tense.
00:34:36Are you going to try something stupid?
00:34:38Almost definitely.
00:34:43A-ha, you're coming off!
00:34:56Tuck-a-a!
00:34:57Tuck-a-a-a!
00:34:58Tuck-a-a-a...
00:34:58Tuck-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
00:34:59-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a.
00:34:59Give me two seconds.
00:35:01Jill, be right back.
00:35:08You with the tight end?
00:35:11I'm good, thanks.
00:35:13That's not what I asked of.
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.
00:35:29What the hell is wrong with you, bitch?
00:35:43Hitting a woman. Not cool.
00:35:45What the hell?
00:35:46I'm gonna have to call unnecessary roughness on that fight.
00:35:50Apologize to her.
00:35:51Screw you!
00:35:53One, two.
00:36:00Are you okay?
00:36:02Hey!
00:36:03Hands where I can see them!
00:36:06Yeah.
00:36:07And that is what you call a self.
00:36:11You got it, McKinney.
00:36:12It was self-defense.
00:36:14Now!
00:36:20Wait.
00:36:22Don't I know you?
00:36:23You bailed your old man out of the slammer.
00:36:26Like father, like daughter.
00:36:27Tell me about it.
00:36:29what is he talking about?
00:36:47The linebacker who paralyzed, they happen.
00:36:50We haven't VP with a dirty hit.
00:36:53Like father, like daughter.
00:36:54You know, your dad had a bit of a temper.
00:36:56He 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'd be a pretty good story to tell the kids stuff they want.
00:37:18Video 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 a lost cause?
00:37:34No.
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...
00:37:52pulling you into this mess.
00:37:55You did it.
00:37:56I walked right in.
00:37:59Eyes wide open.
00:38:00Don't worry.
00:38:02Don't worry.
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.
00:38:34You're not even under contract with the team.
00:38:36You'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, you'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 here.
00:38:55Okay, well, I only brought enough cash for one of you, so...
00:38:58Okay, then 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?
00:39:10You'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.
00:39:47Oh, well, that is a road trip I would like to forget.
00:39:52I still feel like I smoked up my most bad decisions.
00:39:57That jails, though.
00:39:59That was worse than the team locker room after two a days.
00:40:01In the day of August.
00:40:07When we get home, I need a shower.
00:40:09Like, an exorcism level shower.

00:59:38No!
00:59:39Get your hands off!

00:59:47You sick son of a bitch!
01:00:20What? What happened?
01:00:23You were drugged. Eli.
01:00:26What about your date with Jules? How did you?
01:00:29Didn't happen. Took her home. Dropped her off.
01:00:32I was just trying to make you jealous.
01:00:35Childish move.
01:00:38But the truth is, there was only one person I was up on that stage stripping for.
01:00:46You came back for me.
01:00:48Always.
01:00:50You came back to me.
01:00:51I was just in the middle of a day and I was ready to go.
01:00:53It's been a big, in the middle of a year.
01:00:53Yeah, sure.
01:01:12No, you can't leave me in the middle of a day.
01:01:15I was just out there.
01:01:16I was just in the middle of a day.
01:01:21Morning.
01:01:22Morning.
01:01:23Hi.
01:01:31What is it?
01:01:33I 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,
01:01:44it won't matter.
01:01:53I'm sorry.
01:01:55It was great.
01:01:58An embarrassment.
01:01:59He 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,
01:02:15he's a cautionary tale.
01:02:16I would never want to do anything
01:02:19to jeopardize your comeback.
01:02:24Hey.
01:02:26Don't look away from this.
01:02:29From me.
01:02:31Whatever happens,
01:02:33we can deal with it.
01:02:34We're making a mistake.
01:02:38Maybe.
01:02:40It's mine to make.
01:02:47No..
01:02:51woooo
01:02:58a
01:02:59No…
01:02:59Michael...
01:02:59This is okay.
01:03:01This is okay.
01:03:04I don't know why.
01:03:15We could be like,
01:03:16we need India.
01:03:23You ready to experience greatness?
01:03:25My protein smoothie special thing.
01:03:28Just promise me you're not going to start making me do push-ups.
01:03:39That can't be good.
01:03:49Gus, you've been online today?
01:03:51No, why?
01:03:53You fucked up, Mason.
01:03:55I told you, it was just a matter of time.
01:03:58Oh my god.
01:04:06What the hell is this?
01:04:08How? I don't understand.
01:04:34Maybe he'll think twice before blowing me off this time.
01:04:40You sleeping with the intern? You violated your morality rules, so you're suspended.
01:04:46Indefinitely.
01:04:53Tucker, I'm so sorry. This is because of me.
01:04:56No. This is because someone's trying to ruin me.
01:05:00And they used you to do it.
01:05:05They think that I'm the same screw-up that I used to be.
01:05:10They're trying to protect everything that I worked for and burn it down.
01:05:14I should go.
01:05:20You don't have to leave, Samira.
01:05:22You didn't do anything wrong.
01:05:25You walk out that door, they win.
01:05:53What the hell do you want from me?
01:05:55Sit up.
01:05:59You just signed your old man's death warrant.
01:06:03That video wasn't my fault.
01:06:05You think I wanted this to happen?
01:06:07What I think doesn't matter.
01:06:09What matters is there's seven figures riding on the Sentinels winning this weekend's playoff game.
01:06:14And now their number one red zone threat is suspended.
01:06:19If Tucker doesn't play, they kill me.
01:06:23That's not my fault.
01:06:25That's not my fault.
01:06:25It is now.
01:06:27Because if I go down, they're not just coming for me.
01:06:32They're coming for you.
01:06:33And him.
01:06:42This is because of your mistakes.
01:06:46Again.
01:06:47You can't move through everything.
01:06:49Your money, your career, your life.
01:06:52And now you expect me to fix it?
01:06:55Do you have any idea what it's taken for me to get this far?
01:06:59I changed my name.
01:07:01Buried who I was.
01:07:02I spent years proving that I am not you.
01:07:03That I am better than your screw ups.
01:07:07You expect me to blow it all up just to keep you breathing?
01:07:11Yeah.
01:07:13That's right.
01:07:14I'm the only family you got.
01:07:18I'm so tired of cleaning up your messes.
01:07:23I built this life on my own.
01:07:25Every step of it.
01:07:25No one handed it to me.
01:07:27And I sure as hell didn't gamble it away.
01:07:31You done?
01:07:36What could I even do?
01:07:37Publicly take the ball for the video.
01:07:40Say it was you who seduced him.
01:07:43He tried to stop it.
01:07:45You lied about your identity.
01:07:48You manipulated him.
01:07:50Whatever it takes.
01:07:52Just clear his name.
01:07:54Get him back on the field.
01:07:57You want me to destroy my reputation for a man you've never even met.
01:08:02I'm going to make it to next Monday with a pulse.
01:08:13The team's holding the press conference tomorrow.
01:08:17Don't let me down, sweetheart.
01:08:34I'm so sorry about your leaked tape.
01:08:37I can't imagine who would have had a reason to do something so awful.
01:08:41You think this is a game?
01:08:42I think it's a business.
01:08:44And you're not exactly MVP material these days.
01:08:49You set me up.
01:08:52Mm-mm.
01:08:53I gave you an out.
01:08:54But you chose her.
01:08:57You torched my career.
01:08:59Please.
01:09:00You were holding a lit match the entire time.
01:09:03I just poured some gasoline on it.
01:09:08Thank you all for coming.
01:09:12The Sentinels organization takes its code of conduct very seriously.
01:09:18After reviewing the footage and the timeline of the events,
01:09:23we've reached a decision regarding Mr. Newsome's future with the team.
01:09:30Effective immediately...
01:09:40If you're going to drag someone through the mud, make sure it's the right person.
01:09:44Ms. Richards, this isn't...
01:09:46It's Ms. Rivers, actually.
01:09:49Leon Rivers is my father.
01:09:55And the truth is, that video...
01:09:57It wasn't Tucker's mistake.
01:10:01It was mine.
01:10:03I was the one who crossed the line.
01:10:05I pursued him, and I lied about who I was.
01:10:08I let things get personal, and I compromised my role with this organization.
01:10:15He tried to keep things professional.
01:10:18I didn't.
01:10:20So if anyone should face the consequences for what happened...
01:10:26It's me.
01:10:29You're up.
01:10:31Please.
01:10:31You don't have to do that.
01:10:33Yes, I do.
01:10:36You saved me that night in more ways than one.
01:10:40I won't let you lose everything for doing the right thing.
01:10:46We all say we want players who are good men, who protect women who stand up when it counts.
01:10:51And that is exactly what Tucker Newsome did.
01:10:56And I won't let that get buried under spin and scandal.
01:11:00Samira, please.
01:11:02You were always worth the risk.
01:11:08So...
01:11:10You're saying this was a personal failing on your part?
01:11:16Yes.
01:11:17And I'll accept the consequences.
01:11:20Just don't make Tucker your scapegoat.
01:11:26Then, as far as the Sentinels are concerned, this matter is resolved.
01:11:35Tucker Newsome has officially been cleared to play on Sunday.
01:11:57You could have told me the truth.
01:11:59You think I wanted this?
01:12:01To be his daughter and have every choice I make get measured against his mistakes?
01:12:04No.
01:12:05But I thought you trusted me enough to tell me.
01:12:08I do trust you.
01:12:11I'm sorry.
01:12:13But you didn't have to take the fall for me.
01:12:17Yes, I did.
01:12:18My father called.
01:12:20He's indeed owes money to people you don't want to owe.
01:12:24And they found out that he has a daughter who works with a pro athlete.
01:12:29With you.
01:12:33You lied to save me.
01:12:37I guess we're even now.
01:12:41You don't have to kill me.
01:12:43I'm not your accountability partner anymore.
01:12:48Besides, you need to focus on the playoffs.
01:12:51No. Screw that.
01:12:59What now?
01:13:02Hello?
01:13:03What's the butt down here?
01:13:05She actually bought it!
01:13:08All I had to say was that they kill me and boom!
01:13:12She's on the podium!
01:13:15I don't...
01:13:15Your piece of shit dad lied to you.
01:13:18He's not in debt.
01:13:21He's on the paywall.
01:13:28I don't know why I'm surprised.
01:13:30He has disappointed me my whole life.
01:13:35He sold you out, Sumira.
01:13:37He lied to you.
01:13:39He's your love like leverage.
01:13:42I gave up everything for him.
01:13:45My name.
01:13:46My job.
01:13:47My future.
01:13:48My future.
01:13:48And you saved mine.
01:13:51It has to count for something.
01:13:55It has to count for more than that.
01:13:58He thinks he wins just because you're clear to play.
01:14:02Because I let him back me into a corner.
01:14:05But we are gonna beat it.
01:14:07It is a game.
01:14:09How?
01:14:12If I know one thing about Leon Rivers.
01:14:15He loves to hear himself talk.
01:14:18So we get him talking.
01:14:40You sure about this?
01:14:42No.
01:14:44But I'm doing it anyway.
01:14:48Hey.
01:14:49Did you bring it?
01:14:54We will record everything.
01:14:56Alright.
01:14:57Clean feed.
01:14:58My team back at the studio will record it all.
01:15:02And you're sure it won't glitch.
01:15:04This has to work.
01:15:05It will.
01:15:09I know I can't make right what I did.
01:15:13I'm really ashamed.
01:15:14I'm so sorry.
01:15:16You're just lucky I didn't press charges.
01:15:20I'm even luckier that I didn't beat you to death in that hotel room.
01:15:26You're alive.
01:15:32You're alive.
01:15:34Who's here?
01:15:36Alright.
01:15:37Showtime.
01:15:45I got this.
01:15:58You're late.
01:15:59You're disgusting.
01:16:01What the fuck are you even doing here?
01:16:03Huh?
01:16:04You still bitter?
01:16:05After everything I taught you?
01:16:07You have never been your real father to me.
01:16:09You threatened me. You lied.
01:16:11You said they'd kill us if Tucker didn't play.
01:16:14You believed it didn't you?
01:16:16That doesn't matter.
01:16:18You used me.
01:16:20I survived.
01:16:22Same as always.
01:16:24Well you're not going to survive this.
01:16:27Sweetheart.
01:16:28The league already bought you a little confession.
01:16:30Your golden boy's back in uniform.
01:16:34And me?
01:16:36I'm sitting on the payout of a lifetime.
01:16:39You should be thanking me.
01:16:41Almost ever.
01:16:42Because of you.
01:16:44I can't say it.
01:16:46But you kept the team's biggest offensive weapon on the field.
01:16:51Everybody wins.
01:16:54I just better pray that your boyfriend delivers because if the Sentinels lose today, it won't just be my head
01:17:03on a chopping block.
01:17:05It'll be yours too.
01:17:07It sounded an awful lot like a threat to me.
01:17:11It's not a threat.
01:17:13It's a promise.
01:17:18Yes!
01:17:20We got him.
01:17:21We got him.
01:17:24Hello police.
01:17:25I need to report a crime.
01:17:27The Sentinels are down by three.
01:17:29One final drive.
01:17:31This is it.
01:17:33Fick!
01:17:36Woo!
01:17:38Woo!
01:17:49Woo!
01:17:54Woo!
01:17:57Woo!
01:17:58Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:18:07Yeah!
01:18:07Yeah!
01:18:07Fuckin' hell, fuck you fuckin' hero!
01:18:10Yes!
01:18:11Leon Rivers, you're under arrest for conspiracy, wire fraud,
01:18:15and rocketeering.
01:18:17Wait, wait, wait, what?
01:18:43You
01:18:58It's what you always do, to lie, cheat, you and me.
01:19:02I've done a lot of stupid things in my life.
01:19:04You were my biggest mistake.
01:19:11You played your last down.
01:19:17Rondo, I left.
01:19:18No, let me go.
01:19:22I said.
01:19:23Blind Fed Blitz, never saw me coming home.
01:19:27Neither did I.
01:19:32Tucky-Fu!
01:19:34Oh, we did it!
01:19:37We didn't do anything.
01:19:38You tried to sabotage us.
01:19:40Oh, that was just added motivation.
01:19:44Tucker Newsome.
01:19:48Congratulations.
01:19:50I was wrong about you.
01:19:52And you.
01:19:53You're fired.
01:19:55What?
01:19:57Samira.
01:19:59You've been promoted to head of Team PR.
01:20:03You burned.
01:20:05I don't know what to say.
01:20:07Just say you'll show up Monday with a smile on your face.
01:20:12I will.
01:20:14This is a mistake!
01:20:22You know.
01:20:24I was thinking.
01:20:27Maybe you could be my permanent accountability partner.
01:20:32We love you.
01:20:33Yes.
01:20:33It's so nice.
01:20:34I could turn back times,
01:20:36all the world is going on.
01:20:42The time in the world,
01:20:44now I just need more.
01:20:46Oh, oh, oh, oh
