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.
00:11:32I 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.
00:14:46We're new.
00:14:55What?
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.
00:16:07I'm sorry.
00:16:17Reris.
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.
00:16:39The 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.
00:16:52Richard's.
00:16:54Richard's 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.
00:17:07As 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.
00:17:20Mmhm.
00:17:21Mmhm.
00:17:22Mh.
00:17:43Hello?
00:17:44Yh.
00:18:02Oh, sorry.
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.
00:18:15And your dignity.
00:18:17Yes, you practically sell my credit score.
00:18:24Uh, how long?
00:18:26It's just, uh, I think I got kicked out of my house.
00:18:36Yeah.
00:18:37Back here, thanks.
00:18:39Thanks.
00:18:39What?
00:18:40You moving in, with me.
00:18:43It's okay, 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.
00:19:01It's just practical.
00:19:03You can't keep me accountable if you're squatting in a tea mock room.
00:19:06I don't know.
00:19:18Wow.
00:19:21Your 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.
00:19:29That means it's mine.
00:19:31Thanks.
00:19:32I can spell.
00:19:34Then we're going to get along great.
00:19:36Who, me?
00:20:04who's going to get along great?
00:20:06And then we're going to get along great.
00:20:06And then we're going to get along great.
00:20:07It's my house. You're the one sneaking around like him.
00:20:11I couldn't.
00:20:13I wasn't sneaking. I was...
00:20:17...hydrating.
00:20:25You could really use some better snacks.
00:20:28Take the cameras.
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...weaking.
00:20:52Sweat, you're, uh, it's...distracting.
00:20:56I'll try to be less distracting.
00:21:05Look, 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.
00:21:29And 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.
00:21:40So, this thing, whatever it is, if it starts getting in the way of the work, I walk.
00:21:51Okay.
00:21:53I mean it, Tucker.
00:21:56I believe you.
00:22:15I'm gonna go to bed now.
00:22:17Good night.
00:22:19I'm gonna go to bed now.
00:22:20Good night.
00:22:21Good night.
00:22:22Good night.
00:22:33Well.
00:22:34If it isn't PowerPoint Barbie!
00:22:37.
00:22:38How is our Resident Accountability Partner?
00:22:41Or wait..is it, um, handler with benefits?
00:22:49I mean don't feel bad. We all play our part. Some guys cheer from the sidelines, others just um on
00:23:01the bench.
00:23:03Just doing my part to disinfect the desperation.
00:23:09Skank.
00:23:33You good?
00:23:37You so much is breathe running her direction again. The only person you're going to be doing PR for on
00:23:42this team is the mascot.
00:23:43You can't possibly be taking her side. You know she's just using you to get rich and famous.
00:23:48Save it Jules. The only person here who's cloud chasing is you.
00:23:55This isn't over.
00:24:00What 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?
00:24:34Giving you something dry to wear.
00:24:53It's over.
00:24:57We have the story here.
00:24:57Little pacee.
00:24:59It's over here.
00:25:03That's where you're.
00:25:04We're going to be here.
00:25:05We are here.
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 playing Legion of Nile.
00:26:41I need you with me.
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.
00:27:32I'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.
00:27:47Is 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 swaths.
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...
00:28:39a couple of something.
00:28:40I don't know.
00:28:40I don't know.
00:29:00Oh.
00:29:00What 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 have a 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 keeping watch on me?
00:29:20I don't know if I have to.
00:29:23Suit yourself.
00:29:29Oh.
00:29:30Just so you know.
00:29:36This is how I sleep since you're always sleep.
00:29:38Get used to it.
00:29:44Great.
00:29:45Now I have to sleep in the same room as his abs.
00:29:49Great.
00:30:01Now I have to sleep in the same room as his abs.
00:30:14I could get used to waking up like this.
00:30:17But 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.
00:30:30So.
00:30:32That was a fun single.
00:30:35You slept.
00:30:36That's it.
00:30:38Won't happen again.
00:30:39That was a good time.
00:30:41And then I don't care.
00:30:45Yes.
00:30:53I can't remember.
00:30:53I didn't care to be a Š·Š½Š°Šŗ.
00:30:54There's a breakfast buffet.
00:30:56Heard that protein pancakes are pretty sick.
00:30:59You'd eat drywall if it had enough protein in it.
00:31:03Drywall actually has a surprisingly good amino acid.
00:31:09Samira, didn'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, if Eli reveals who my dad is, that's it. Game 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. What are you doing here?
00:31:45I've been training for the Sentinels.
00:31:48Working with Tucker.
00:31:52What? You got a problem with that?
00:31:54No, not at all.
00:31:56I'm just surprised to see you trading your career ambitions for babysitting.
00:32:01Wow, and they let you be on camera with that personality.
00:32:04Coming from a guy whose entire personality is catches balls with you.
00:32:12Okay boys, I think that is enough testosterone for one buffet.
00:32:20We should get something.
00:32:21You know, honestly, I'm surprised they even mentioned your building with your last name.
00:32:39Your ex, always like that?
00:32:41Yeah, he'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.
00:33:06Always 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?
00:33:32Uh...
00:33:32Some of the guys are grabbing drinks to celebrate the win.
00:33:36Nothing crazy.
00:33:38Hm.
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.
00:34:05Ender.
00:34:23I've tried not to get recognized every five feet.
00:34:27No promises.
00:34:28Fame is a burden I carry.
00:34:30Fraisly.
00:34:32Do you dance, or would that be too much fun?
00:34:35Depends.
00:34:36Are you going to try something stupid?
00:34:38Almost definitely.
00:34:39F Specialty Man VonŃŃ Tucker
00:34:56Tucker Newsome?
00:34:57ToNewsome.
00:34:58What's your autograph?
00:34:59Give me two seconds.
00:35:01Judy, we'll be right back.
00:35:06disregarding Preciselypas.
00:35:08You with the tight end?
00:35:11I'm good, thanks.
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.
00:35:29What 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 plane. Apologize to her.
00:35:51Screw you!
00:35:53One, two, three.
00:36:00You okay?
00:36:02Hey! Hands where I can see them.
00:36:06Yeah.
00:36:07And that is what you call assault.
00:36:10You gotta be kidding me.
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 this slammer.
00:36:26Like father, like daughter.
00:36:28Samira, what is he talking about?
00:36:54He 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 stuff at once.
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 up 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?
00:37:35No.
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.
00:38:00Murray, you made battle.
00:38:09Wow.
00:38:11Look at you two.
00:38:13Just like prom night.
00:38:17Not 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.
00:38:39Now, 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, blah, blah, blah.
00:38:52She's not staying here.
00:38:55Okay, well, I only brought enough cash for one of you, so...
00:38:59Okay, 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?
00:39:11You'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.
00:39:45Ah.
00:39:48Well, that is a road trip I would like to forget.
00:39:52I still feel like I smoked up the most bad decisions.
00:39:57That jail cell.
00:39:59That was worse than the team locker room after two-a-days in the dead of August.
00:40:05Ugh.
00:40:07When we get home, I need a shower.
00:40:09Like, an exorcism level shower.
00:40:13Just don't use all the hot water, please.
00:40:34I can go.
00:40:35Go.
00:40:39You know there's eight bathrooms in the house, right?
00:40:43Yeah.
00:40:43That's it.
00:40:44But this one's the ones.
00:40:46I do.
00:40:47I do.
00:41:13Go.
00:41:13Go.
00:41:14Go.
00:41:24Go.
00:41:25Go.
00:41:25Oh, my God.
00:41:25Jesus.
00:41:27Why did this just turn into a cold plunge?
00:41:29This fancy mansion has a broken water here?
00:41:33Yeah.
00:41:34Let's get out of here.
00:41:54It's Gus Marwood
00:41:56The owner of the team
00:41:57Why are you whispering?
00:42:02Gus
00:42:03What a pleasant surprise
00:42:05Tucker
00:42:07Listen, hey, I know it's last minute
00:42:09But I called him a favor and I got you
00:42:11You booked on the number one football podcast
00:42:13It'll be great for you to
00:42:15Reintroduce yourself to your fans
00:42:16The new and improved Tucker Newsome
00:42:19A podcast?
00:42:23Yeah, sure, let's
00:42:25Let's do it
00:42:26Great
00:42:27Look, it's also streaming live on YouTube
00:42:302pm Soundworks downtown
00:42:31Make me proud
00:42:33Don't let me down
00:42:49Mr. Hearsome
00:42:50They're ready for you in Studio B
00:42:52Please 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 gonna be 45 minutes of softballs
00:43:02I got this
00:43:08I'm her ex
00:43:16And here he is
00:43:17Right on time
00:43:33All right, folks
00:43:35We're live here
00:43:36Tucker Newsome
00:43:37Two-time pro bowler
00:43:38And 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
00:43:52A couple of years
00:43:53How would you describe this chapter of your career?
00:43:56Focused
00:43:56Humble
00:43:57Ugly
00:43:59That's new
00:44:02A lot of fans are surprised
00:44:04The 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 vines
00:44:29It's one of the most talented tight ends in the league
00:44:32Also the most volatile
00:44:33People 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
00:44:44Last 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
00:45:34But that is exactly why you cannot lose it in there
00:45:37You heard what you said
00:45:38I did
00:45:40But if you fire back you 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
00:45:50Trust me
00:45:58What 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
00:46:28Tucker, I'm sorry
00:46:28Where were we?
00:46:30Please
00:46:30Shoot her down
00:46:33First question, deflect
00:46:35Then redirect
00:46:37You asked about Vegas
00:46:39Yes, there was an incident
00:46:41And I would do the exact same thing again
00:46:43If someone laid a hand on a woman in front of me
00:46:47So, no regrets
00:46:49No pain
00:46:51Gratitude
00:46:51This is your growth arc
00:46:54Give them the headline you want
00:46:57I've made mistakes
00:46:58But I'm learning
00:46:59And I have people in my life now who push me to be better
00:47:02Not just as a player
00:47:04But as a man
00:47:09He's rattled
00:47:10Yes
00:47:12You can keep judging
00:47:14I'm just going to keep moving forward
00:47:30You were incredible in there
00:47:32You were incredible
00:47:35We made a pretty good team, didn't we?
00:47:37I could get used to that
00:47:39What?
00:47:41You
00:47:43Tell me what to do
00:47:59All my life I was looking for a sign
00:48:05Wasn't sure where to find a piece of mind
00:48:16Oh
00:48:17Star, Diane's sleeping with the intern?
00:48:20Now that's a scandal
00:48:22Check her, don't
00:48:23I should knock your teeth out!
00:48:26Try me, Isam
00:48:27You lay a hand on me
00:48:28And this isn't just a front page story
00:48:31This is a lawsuit too
00:48:34If you want a story
00:48:35I'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
00:48:43You ungrateful little bitch!
00:48:47Leon Rivers
00:48:48Disgrace NFA Championship MVP
00:48:50Ban for life for nearly killing a player on the field
00:48:54Well
00:48:55I know where he's been hiding
00:48:56And he is in a new kind of trouble
00:48:58In deep with the betting syndicate
00:49:00Big names, big debt
00:49:05That's quite the scoop
00:49:08Delete the photos
00:49:09And you have yourself an exclusive
00:49:11Deal
00:49:12No pictures here
00:49:22What the hell was that?
00:49:24That was me saving the crew here
00:49:26No, that was you knowing way too much about Leon Rivers
00:49:29How?
00:49:34I wrote my senior thesis on him
00:49:36PR major, crisis comms
00:49:39This case is textbook, fame, violence, media spin, total brain meltdown
00:49:43Right now, every ugly detail
00:49:48Well, you saved my ass
00:49:50Again
00:49:52We need to be more careful
00:49:55You're right
00:49:56You were just my accountability partner
00:49:58That's it
00:49:59No more late night, heart to hearts
00:50:01No more mixed signals
00:50:02We are just two people who are forced to be on the same team
00:50:06I understand
00:50:08I'm late for practice
00:50:09You can take a newbie back to the office
00:50:19Hello?
00:50:19So, my own daughter sold me out
00:50:23You'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 there
00:50:50Of course they will be
00:50:50Which means I'll be there too
00:50:52To manage optics
00:50:53Nothing more
00:50:55Fine
00:50:58Good
00:50:59Great
00:51:12Smile

00:51:21Our golden boy
00:51:24You clean up nice
00:51:25I'm committed to turning the page, boss
00:51:28Let's see 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
00:51:50Yeah, well, you know what they say
00:51:51The zebra can't change its stripes

00:52:09Cherry sentiment overpriced champagne
00:52:11Those people love the production arc
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
00:52:20That baited me into blowing it
00:52:22That's fair
00:52:23That's fair
00:52:24I might have been a little aggressive
00:52:26Try to get you to crack
00:52:27But you didn't

00:57:43Sorry, that was a bad joke, I 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
00:57:52We walked right past me
00:57:54Right out the door together
00:57:57You know, if you want to talk
00:57:59Or drink
00:58:00And forget about the night

01:08:04with a pulse
01:08:14the team's holding a press conference tomorrow
01:08:17you won't let me down, screw you
01:08:35and you're not exactly MVP material these days
01:08:35so sorry about your need to tape
01:08:37I can't imagine who would've 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 you set me up I gave you an
01:08:54out but you chose her please you were holding a lit match the entire time just
01:09:04pour some gasoline on it coming the sentinels organization takes its code of
01:09:16conduct very seriously after reviewing the footage and the timeline we've
01:09:23reached a decision regarding mr. Newsom's future with the team effective
01:09:39immediately if you're gonna drag someone through the mud make sure it's the right
01:09:43person mr. Richards this isn't it's miss Rivers actually Leon reverses me and the
01:09:55truth is that video it wasn't Tucker's mistake it was mine I was the one who
01:10:04crossed the line I pursued him and I lied about who I was I let things get
01:10:09personal and I compromised my role with this organization
01:10:15I tried to keep things professional I didn't so if anyone should face the
01:10:21consequences for what happened it's me
01:10:33yes I do you saved me that night in more ways than one I won't let you lose
01:10:41everything for doing the right thing
01:10:46we all say we want players who are good men who protect women who stand up when
01:10:51it counts and that is exactly what Tucker Newsom did and I won't let that get
01:10:57buried under spin and scandal Samira please you were always worth the risk
01:11:08mistake so you're saying this was a personal failing on your part yes and I'll accept the
01:11:18consequences just don't make Tucker your scapegoat
01:11:26then as far as the sentinels are concerned this matter is resolved
01:11:35Tucker Newsom has officially been cleared to play on Sunday
01:11:57you could have told me the truth you think I wanted this to be his daughter and have every
01:12:02choice I make it measured against his mistake no but I thought you trusted me enough to tell me
01:12:08I do trust you I'm sorry but you didn't have to take the fall for me
01:12:17yes I did my father called he's indeed it was money to people you don't want to
01:12:23oh and they found out that he has a daughter who works with the pro athlete
