00:00 Can you toss me one of your fluffy pillows?
00:02 Good night.
00:03 [laughter]
00:04 Oh, you think today's practice was hard.
00:07 Wait till tomorrow.
00:09 [aww]
00:10 Oh, man.
00:11 Coach, can I ask you a question, man to man?
00:16 Why are you pushing us so hard?
00:19 [laughter]
00:21 Yeah, okay, we're on a three-game win streak
00:23 and on pace to make the playoffs.
00:25 Can't we ease up a little?
00:27 Listen, guys, I know you're tired,
00:30 but we gotta work hard and push through.
00:33 The team that quits is the team that loses,
00:37 which is gonna be my mantra tonight,
00:39 that poppy's-all-you-can-eat sloppy-Joe buffet truck.
00:43 [laughter]
00:47 Thanks for trying, Bella,
00:49 but it doesn't seem like this torture is ending anytime soon.
00:53 Oh, tell me about it.
00:55 I'm so tired after I get home from practice,
00:57 I keep falling asleep and missing bonding time
01:00 with my new pony.
01:01 And I cannot let my sister turn any more animals against me.
01:06 [laughter]
01:07 My feet are so sore,
01:08 I've had to wear my comfy slippers to school.
01:12 [laughter]
01:13 Me too, sister.
01:15 [laughter]
01:18 Twinsies.

02:09 Before school tape sessions, after school practices,
02:13 coach is killing us and the administration doesn't even care.
02:16 Yeah, what kind of clown is running this place, man?
02:19 [clears throat]
02:20 Principal Davis.
02:21 [laughter]
02:22 Um, what I meant was, uh, uh, kids love clowns, you know?
02:29 [laughter]
02:32 I'm gonna stop talking.
02:34 Guys, practice is canceled.
02:36 Coach and his staff got food poisoning from a low-rent sloppy-joe truck.
02:41 [laughter]
02:43 They're going to be okay, right?
02:45 Well, they're pretty sick.
02:47 The sounds I heard on the other end of that call with coach shook me to my core.
02:53 [laughter]
02:54 I doubt they'll be back before next week.
02:56 But don't worry, kids.
02:57 I will find a replacement coach by tomorrow.
03:00 Uh, Principal Davis, look, I know I'm just a student and it's none of my business,
03:07 but what about Mr. Kurtz, the substitute teacher?
03:12 Mr. Kurtz? Isn't he kind of...
03:15 Amazing!
03:17 [laughter]
03:19 Mr. Kurtz would be a great choice.
03:21 The man is teacherly.
03:23 [laughter]
03:25 I was hoping to hire someone with coaching experience, but Kurtz is always available.
03:31 I'll call him now.
03:33 Seriously? Mr. Kurtz?
03:38 The guy who took 20 minutes to get his tie un-sucked from the pencil sharpener?
03:43 He's kind of a joke.
03:45 Kind of? Oh, no, the dude's completely incompetent.
03:48 [laughter]
03:49 Which means we'll get the break we finally deserve.
03:52 But what about our winning streak? And the playoffs?
03:56 Ella, relax. We're playing the Wildcats this week,
03:59 a team we crushed so badly last year that I played in that game.
04:03 I played. Me.
04:06 [laughter]
04:07 I'm sucking up.
04:08 Yeah, that's crazy.
04:10 Because he is not good.
04:12 Thank you, friends.
04:14 Look, Ella, what I'm trying to say is we'll be fine.
04:20 I played.
04:22 Me.
04:23 [laughter]
04:25 [music]
04:29 Oh, Pepper!
04:31 I just bumped into the most awesome guy.
04:34 Pick me a picture. Canvas, colors, textures, go.
04:38 Okay, so I was headed to the gym this morning.
04:40 I was a little late because Abuela made me tell Molly's story.
04:43 You're not painting fast enough.
04:45 Sorry. He's super cool and has the most amazing eyes.
04:49 I can't tell whether they're sparkly or smoldery, but either way, I'm in.
04:55 That is such a coincidence.
04:57 I just met a super cool, super cute boy in the library,
05:00 and he was paying a late fee, which means he's responsible,
05:04 but also a little bit of a bad boy.
05:07 Ooh, is there chemistry?
05:09 Explosive.
05:11 Silent chemistry.
05:13 So you're over Sawyer?
05:15 Completely.
05:17 We're happy just being friends, and I'm ready for some new love puppies.
05:22 Puppy love.
05:24 [laughter]
05:26 Sounded better in my head.
05:28 [laughter]
05:30 I'm happy for us.
05:32 [laughter]
05:34 Hey.
05:36 Hi, Cole.
05:38 [laughter]
05:41 Wait, is that the--
05:43 Yeah. Is that your--
05:45 Uh-huh.
05:47 [laughter]
05:49 I gotta go.
05:50 Me too.
05:51 Okay, bye.
05:52 [laughter]
05:54 [music]
05:56 Woo! I'm so excited for this week!
05:59 [laughter]
06:01 This practice is gonna be a breeze.
06:04 [whistle]
06:05 All right, guys, bring it in.
06:07 I'm Mr. Kurtz, and it has been brought to my attention
06:10 that I have a reputation of a little bit of a pushover
06:14 and a failed educator.
06:17 [laughter]
06:19 Well, that all stops today,
06:21 because from now on, I will be a model substitute.
06:26 [laughter]
06:28 You guys gave it your best shot.
06:30 We're gonna work hard, we're gonna follow your coach's playbook,
06:34 and we're gonna get you ready for the game against the Wildcats.
06:37 Anybody got a problem with that?
06:39 Oh.
06:41 Hey, come on, guys.
06:43 The man's just trying to do his job.
06:45 Respect the sub.
06:48 [laughter]
06:50 Thank you.
06:51 Could I have seen him in the hallway?
06:54 All right, now, first up, team.
06:57 Wow, that is some terrible handwriting.
07:01 I can't tell if that's 100 Slurpees or 100 Burpees.
07:05 Please let it be Slurpees. Please let it be Slurpees.
07:08 [laughter]
07:10 Nope, says Burpee.
07:12 Yep, let's do those. What's a Burpee?
07:14 Uh...
07:16 You know, Mr. Kurtz, this binder can be pretty confusing
07:19 if you've never played football before.
07:21 Yes, well, I haven't. I haven't even watched it.
07:24 Oh! Great.
07:26 Well, you know, why don't I just run you through
07:28 our normal practice routine, then?
07:30 Oh, okay.
07:31 On Tuesdays, we really focus on, uh...
07:34 recovery.
07:36 And, uh, silent reflection upon last week's game.
07:40 Very sad.
07:42 [laughter]
07:44 But, Troy, we have a game coming up.
07:46 Shouldn't we at least run some passing drills?
07:48 That's right, Bella.
07:50 On Tuesdays, we visualize the passing drills.
07:54 In our minds.
07:56 [laughter]
08:00 Visualize.
08:02 But that doesn't seem right.
08:04 Well, you know, that's what we said, you know?
08:07 But then, uh, Coach told us
08:10 that the last four NFL MVPs
08:14 use visualizing to up their game.
08:17 Oh, wow.
08:19 Well, you know what?
08:21 If it's good enough for the pros,
08:23 then, hey, it's good enough for us.
08:25 Right.
08:26 Everybody, let's get visualizing.
08:29 Yes.
08:30 Everybody relax.
08:32 I'll turn off the lights and close your eyes.
08:35 Huh. Yeah.
08:39 I am no expert, but this looks good.
08:42 [laughter]
08:44 Oh, I just caught a touchdown.
08:47 No, I dropped it.
08:49 [laughter]
08:51 Keep trying, little man.
08:53 Keep trying.
08:55 Okay, if anybody needs me,
08:58 I'll be in my office
09:00 visualizing a pizza
09:02 with everything on it.
09:04 [laughter]
09:06 Bella, you should really be taking advantage of this.
09:10 Look, you deserve a break.
09:12 Plus, with the playoffs coming up,
09:13 you won't have extra time off for months.
09:15 Yeah, I know.
09:16 I want a break, too.
09:18 But I'm worried about the game on Saturday.
09:21 Okay, then, uh, let's sit down.
09:25 Talk about it.
09:27 Look, Bella, if you're concerned,
09:30 I'm concerned, all right?
09:31 Talk to me.
09:32 Okay, I just don't think this is a good idea.
09:34 We're in the middle of football season,
09:36 and Coach says we always need to be prepared.
09:39 And whoever gives up first--
09:41 Ooh.
09:43 I quit.
09:45 [laughter]
09:47 [music playing]
09:49 I can't believe we like the same guy.
09:55 And he's sitting right there, just taunting us.
09:58 Technically, we did follow him here.
10:01 Good point.
10:05 But you know what?
10:06 Now that I see him, he's not all bad.
10:09 Yeah.
10:10 Cole's no Zac Efron.
10:12 Except for the eyes.
10:13 And that smile.
10:14 And the hair.
10:15 And that everything.
10:17 It's just like--
10:18 We get it.
10:19 You're charming.
10:20 And you look great in leather.
10:22 And denim.
10:23 And shirts.
10:25 This is so dumb.
10:28 We might like him, but that doesn't mean he likes us.
10:31 Yeah, you're right.
10:33 We don't even have to worry about it.
10:35 Oh, we didn't order this.
10:37 I know.
10:38 The smoldering shy guy did.
10:40 Who did he say you swore?
10:44 He didn't.
10:45 He left a note.
10:47 I think you're cute, Cole.
10:51 Gee, thanks, I'm cute!
10:54 Wait, no.
10:56 [music playing]
10:58 [music playing]
11:00 [music playing]
11:02 [music playing]
11:04 [music playing]
11:06 [music playing]
11:08 [music playing]
11:10 Hey, tell me again why your coach has you do this on Thursdays.
11:13 It improves our hand-eye coordination.
11:16 Yeah, the last four NFL MVPs swear by it.
11:20 Wow, thank goodness for those four MVPs.
11:23 I mean, if it wasn't for them, I'd have you guys running laps
11:25 like an idiot.
11:27 [laughter]
11:29 With Mr. Kurtz, these practices have been so much less painful.
11:33 [laughter]
11:35 Still less painful.
11:37 [laughter]
11:38 And my feet feel so much better, too.
11:40 I finally put my slippers away.
11:43 Big mistake.
11:45 My toes are on safari.
11:47 How about you, Sawyer?
11:48 How's that new pony?
11:50 We're totally bonded now.
11:52 She imprinted on me.
11:54 [laughter]
11:57 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's not what imprinting is.
12:00 [laughter]
12:02 Guys, you need to see this.
12:05 [music playing]
12:07 Ace McFoamals here with a Bulldog update.
12:10 The once hapless Wildcats, who we pummeled 45-7 last year,
12:15 are now undefeated and feature one of the best defenses in Texas.
12:19 [grunting]
12:20 [gasping]
12:21 They're so much bigger than last year.
12:24 And faster.
12:25 And stronger.
12:26 Does that guy have a beard?
12:28 [laughter]
12:29 Fire.
12:30 This must be why Coach was pushing us so hard.
12:33 But we haven't done anything this week.
12:36 We're going to get crushed.
12:38 Yeah, hold on one second.
12:40 OK, hey, guys, quick question.
12:42 Do you know what time the game is tomorrow?
12:44 I got the cable guy coming between 3 and 5, so--
12:47 [laughter]
12:48 Oh, oh, yeah.
12:50 You know what?
12:51 They're just disconnecting it.
12:52 I don't have to be there.
12:53 That's good news.
12:55 [laughter]
12:56 [music playing]
12:59 This can't be happening.
13:06 Last year, the Wildcats were a team of kids just like me.
13:09 Now they look like a team of kids who eat kids just like me.
13:13 [laughter]
13:15 They're going to crush us, and it's going to hurt.
13:18 Bella, you knew this Mr. Kersh thing was a bad idea.
13:21 Why didn't you see it was from ourselves?
13:23 [laughter]
13:26 You just stood there and let us make mistakes.
13:30 Shame.
13:31 Shame on you.
13:33 [laughter]
13:35 OK, first of all--
13:38 [sneezes]
13:39 Ow!
13:40 [laughter]
13:42 Is it my guilt punishment enough?
13:44 [laughter]
13:46 What are we going to do?
13:48 We're doomed.
13:49 OK, don't worry.
13:51 There's an easy solution.
13:53 Coach left us exact instructions on what to do.
13:56 Remember, they're in his binder.
13:58 The binder.
14:00 [laughter]
14:02 Yes, the practice binder with all our plays and everything
14:06 you need to run our practices.
14:08 Yes, that binder.
14:10 Yeah, I'm pretty sure I left that in the gym.
14:12 No, the library.
14:14 No, it's definitely somewhere in town,
14:17 depending on where that bus was going.
14:19 [laughter]
14:21 You lost it?
14:22 There goes our winning streak.
14:24 Maybe even the playoffs.
14:25 We're ruined.
14:26 What's the big deal?
14:27 You guys said you didn't need that anyway.
14:29 We lied, man.
14:31 [laughter]
14:32 It's super important.
14:34 I told myself I'd never be fooled by students again.
14:38 I'm too trusting.
14:40 [laughter]
14:42 OK, I'm going to find that binder.
14:45 I just have to ride the bus a lot.
14:48 [laughter]
14:50 That dude is never going to find it.
14:52 His plan has so many holes in it.
14:55 OK, so we don't have the binder,
14:57 but we can go to the guy who made the binder.
15:00 Let's go get Coach.
15:02 And enter his house of sickness?
15:04 Maybe we should wait and see how Mr. Kurtz does.
15:07 [laughter]
15:09 I forgot my bus pass.
15:11 [laughter]
15:12 Where's my bus pass?
15:14 [laughter]
15:16 It's in the binder.
15:18 [laughter]
15:20 Let's go get Coach.
15:22 [laughter]
15:23 [music]
15:31 Oh, hey, cool.
15:33 My hair?
15:34 Thanks.
15:35 I woke up like this.
15:37 [laughter]
15:38 You did not wake up like that.
15:40 [laughter]
15:41 Oh, yeah?
15:42 Well, you're so dressed up.
15:44 You wouldn't happen to be on your way to talk to Cole,
15:47 would you?
15:48 I have a class presentation about the importance
15:54 of dressing up for class presentations.
15:59 [laughter]
16:01 Nice try.
16:03 Well, you're wearing your too-short-for-school skirt.
16:07 You were going to talk to Cole.
16:09 Yeah, to confirm what we already know.
16:12 He likes me.
16:14 If by "me" you mean me,
16:17 then that's exactly where you're going to find out.
16:20 That doesn't make any sense.
16:22 [laughter]
16:24 Great, you made me miss my chance.
16:26 I think you mean I made you miss my chance.
16:30 Whatever.
16:31 I'm done with you.
16:33 I'm done with you, too.
16:35 Fine.
16:36 Fine.
16:38 I'm done with your stupid short skirt.
16:41 [laughter]
16:43 [music]
16:45 It's nice of you guys to come by.
16:48 You're my first visitors.
16:50 Oh, since you've been sick?
16:52 No.
16:54 [laughter]
16:57 Uh, well, we just came by because we missed you.
17:01 So if you're feeling healthy enough to come back,
17:03 you should come back.
17:04 Why don't you come back?
17:05 [laughter]
17:08 Yeah, Coach.
17:09 Please.
17:11 It means a lot to me that you guys want me back so bad.
17:16 And even though I feel terrible,
17:18 I'm going to be a man and push through it.
17:22 Oh, no.
17:24 [laughter]
17:27 [grunts]
17:30 Remember me as I was.
17:33 I'm growing your eyes.
17:36 Why am I here?
17:37 I don't even play.
17:39 It's helpless.
17:40 The game is in two days.
17:43 We still have one option.
17:46 Coach.
17:47 Oh.
17:48 We tricked Mr. Davis into hiring Mr. Kurtz
17:50 so we could slack off.
17:52 And then he lost your binder, and we're really sorry,
17:54 but now we don't know what to do.
17:56 That was your option?
17:58 Bella, the truth is never an option.
18:00 What is wrong with you?
18:01 [laughter]
18:03 Don't panic.
18:04 Now, there's nothing in that binder
18:06 that you don't already know.
18:08 My plan was to train you guys extra hard.
18:12 I knew if we could outlast the Wildcats,
18:15 we could beat them.
18:17 Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go blow my nose.
18:22 [laughter]
18:24 [imitates explosion]
18:26 [laughter]
18:28 That is the sound of our winning streak
18:30 coming down the drain.
18:32 Hold on.
18:34 We still have two days to get a whole week of practice in.
18:37 How are we going to do that?
18:39 We're going to push ourselves.
18:41 We're going to run all the drills, plays, and formations
18:44 Coach has pounded into our heads all season.
18:47 The only way we stand a chance of beating the Wildcats
18:50 is if we do some serious makeup work.
18:53 Hmm.
18:54 Or alternative pitch.
18:57 Poppy sloppy Joe gift basket for the Wildcats,
19:00 and we let it do the work for us.
19:03 [laughter]
19:06 No? No?
19:07 Okay, hard work it is.
19:09 [laughter]
19:11 [music]
19:16 Ooh, you look good.
19:18 And by you, I mean me.
19:20 [laughter]
19:23 Glorious.
19:24 Did you have fun in your waddling skirt yesterday, penguin lady?
19:29 I looked so good I was sent home to change.
19:32 Please.
19:33 You were sent home because your skirt was too short.
19:36 I should know.
19:37 I was the one who complained.
19:39 Seriously?
19:40 Seriously.
19:41 So what?
19:43 So what?
19:44 I'll show you so what.
19:46 Oh, you did not just neck roll me.
19:48 Take that wagging finger out of my face
19:51 before I make you eat it.
19:53 [laughter]
19:56 Whoa.
19:57 What is wrong with us?
19:59 We're letting a guy tear us apart.
20:02 I'm so sorry.
20:05 I'm sorry, too.
20:07 We have to do something about this.
20:10 I know what to do.
20:12 Do you trust me?
20:13 I trust you.
20:15 Follow me.
20:16 [footsteps]
20:20 Oh, hey, girl.
20:21 You have front eyes.
20:23 We know you like one of us, but we don't care which one it is.
20:26 And you need to leave us alone.
20:28 But I--
20:29 No.
20:30 Pepper and I are best friends,
20:31 and we're not gonna let you come between us.
20:36 And just think, all of this could have been avoided
20:39 if you just told me you liked me directly.
20:42 Pepper!
20:43 [laughter]
20:46 [music]
20:51 All right, guys.
20:52 We have five days of practices in two days.
20:55 We're gonna have to use every free minute to get ready
20:57 before school, after school, and in between classes.
21:01 Let's do this!
21:02 [cheering]

22:00 Time out!
22:01 [cheering]
22:04 With almost no time left,
22:06 our Bulldogs have one last chance to score a touchdown
22:09 and come from behind to win the game.
22:11 Let's hope our substitute wonder coach
22:13 has a few more tricks up his sleeve.
22:16 Okay, guys, here's the plan.
22:18 After the game, I'm gonna take the crosstown bus,
22:20 make it home, meet the cable guy to turn the cable back on.
22:23 [laughter]
22:25 Said he'd give me ten extra days if I gave him 30 bucks cash.
22:29 Trust me, it's a good deal.
22:32 [laughter]
22:34 I don't know how I'm gonna do it.
22:36 I am so tired.
22:39 I'm exhausted just watching you guys.
22:42 [laughter]
22:43 I'm worn out, too.
22:45 But coach said if we quit, we lose.
22:48 And I'm not quitting.
22:50 We just need one more play.
22:52 Now who's with me?
22:54 We all are, Bella.
22:55 Come on!
22:56 [cheers and applause]
23:10 [music]
23:23 [cheers and applause]
23:52 Toronto Batski, the Bulldogs win!
23:56 [cheers and applause]
24:01 Wow, that celebration took a lot out of me.
24:05 [laughter]
24:07 Good game, guys.
24:09 We can't ever be unprepared like that again.
24:12 [groans]
24:14 [laughter]
24:15 [music]
24:22 [music]
24:26 Anyone missing a coach?
24:28 [cheers]
24:29 Coach!
24:30 Good to see you, big guy.
24:31 Welcome back, coach.
24:34 I was never contagious, Newt.
24:37 I am not taking any chances.
24:40 Seriously, we are so glad you're back.
24:42 Oh, thanks.
24:43 But I'm sure Mr. Kurtz wasn't so bad.
24:46 [panting]
24:50 Good news.
24:51 Took me two days, 24 bus trips, but I found the binder.
24:55 Turns out it was on my kitchen table
24:57 under a stack of unpaid cable bills.
24:59 Yeah.
25:00 Well, thank you.
25:01 Yeah.
25:02 Inside you'll find my application
25:04 to be your assistant coach.
25:06 Well, I don't see any application in here,
25:08 but there is this bus pass.
25:11 Oh, sweet!
25:12 You found it!
25:13 This day just keeps getting better and better.
25:18 Coach, don't ever get sick again.
25:22 [laughter]
25:24 Suit up!
25:26 Wind spritz on the field in four minutes.
25:28 Oh!
