"The East Dillon Lions are going to State." "I went to prison for Billy." "Why would you do something like that?" "I had the opportunity to give something to Stevie we never had." "I gave him his father." "Hey, Pop, what's up with them jackets?" "I'm bringing gifts." "Pretty little mama." "No, you didn't even make enough money to buy these." "Hey!" "Come on, just..." "Hey, hey!" "Get your hands off me, boy." "Get off me, boy." "What's that?" "This is grown man's stuff." "Don't you worry about it." "Y'all are ungrateful." "And then Tim moved in, and he was friend to me." "And when everything happened with me and you, he was there for me." "And I put him on a pedestal for that." "That's really pretty." "You should put that in a little poem." "Go to hell." "Go to hell!" "I miss you, and I miss us." "And I feel like I just don't fit in your life anymore." "No." "I've been wanting to do that ever since you showed up." "We're offering you the Dean of Admissions." "Well, we'd have to move to Philadelphia." "Texas is where I have my job." "There will be one football program." "And that will be the Dillon Panthers." "Picture this." "You got all the Dillon players." "With Vince." "You got the facilities, you got all the money you'll ever need." "You got everything you want." "I have been a coach's wife for 18 years." "Every decision this family has made has been based on your coaching career." "Might we be able to speak with Eric?" "Y'all come in." "Eighteen years." "Right here, gentlemen." "Let's cut through the BS." "How do you feel about the shutdown of the East Dillon program?" "That's a stupid question." "What do you think?" "It's a conspiracy." "Vince, Vince, Vince." "I've seen that Sterling kid play." "It reminds me a little bit of St. Vincent's back in the day." "You two paired up in the same backfield is gonna make a hell of a tandem." "He's a Panther." "I know, but I'm thinking more along the lines of next year, the formation of the so-called super team, the best of the Lions, best of the Panthers." "I don't really want to talk about that." "I want to talk about how the East Dillon Lions are going to win State." "Is that a promise?" "It's a fact." "What are your plans for next year?" "I hear they're taking the cream of the crop for this new super team, so I'm going to be honest with you, what are you going to do?" "You are a total jackass." "Yeah." "Come on, man." "It'd be a mistake if he didn't play." "Do you consider yourselves to be in the running for the next head coach of the super team?" "I would think that I'd probably have a good shot." "I'm not meant for the spotlight." "How do you address the future of this team beyond the State Championship game?" "I'm not looking beyond the State." "Knowing him, that's probably all he's really thinking about right now." "Excuse me, Coach, we've all heard a rumor here that you've been offered a hell of a deal." "You got to address that." "We want to know." "I have no comment on that, fellows." "I have no comment." "I don't want to make a comment on that." "I apologize." "I'll end it with this, no comment." "Five-year contract." "That's not something that comes along every day." "I'm not saying that." "Five-year contract means security, it means you can have that his-and-her closet that you wanted so much." "Remember that little house over on Graham Street that you wanted?" "Now you can afford something like that." "I appreciate that." "But you know what?" "I bet they'd set us up pretty nicely in Philadelphia, too." "College-style." "Five years is something that you have to pay attention to." "But don't forget, the people offering you this contract are also the people who fired you for no reason two years ago." "No, they are not the same people." "That's an entire different situation." "You're wrong." "No, it's not a whole different situation." "It's a completely different situation." "Who has changed in this town?" "Listen, you've always said that you could coach football anywhere." "I don't see why Philadelphia is..." "Because here is where we put our tree, not Philadelphia." "What does Julie think?" "Jules, I'd love to hear..." "That's a Texas tree." "I am not getting involved in this conversation." "Don't raise your voice." "This is a family decision." "I'm very happy." "It's jolly." "Someone's at the door." "Hang on!" "There's someone at the door." "Are you serious right now?" "Well, I can hear it." "Can you hear it?" "Would you like me to help you get the door?" "I'll get the door." "I'll get it." "No, I'll help you." "I'll get it!" "No, I don't want you to strain yourself." "Hey, Matt." "How are you?" "I'm well." "Thank you." "Merry, merry, merry Christmas." "It's Matt Saracen, honey." "I see who it is, sweetheart." "Happy, happy Christmas." "Is Julie..." "What?" "She sure is." "Julie." "Your daughter." "Is she here?" "She's here." "Yeah, she's here." "What?" "Come on in, sweetie." "We're decorating the tree." "Hi." "Hey." "Hi." "Come on in." "Join us." "We're decorating the tree." "We're having a fun family time." "Oh, thank you." "Yeah, it's been great." "I wish you would have at least told me you were coming home for Christmas." "I mean, the surprise was nice, but at least we could have planned something or gone somewhere." "Hey, Julie..." "Look, ever since you came to Chicago," "I've been thinking about you all the time, and us." "And it's just that was perfect." "And" "I know how much I love you." "And I know that I want to be with you forever." "So..." "This is Grandma's." "Julie Taylor, will you marry me?" "Yes." "Yeah?" "Really?" "I love you." "I love you so much." "It's beautiful." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "My dad must have flipped." "What do you mean?" "When you asked him to marry me." "You're kidding, right?" "No, you asked him, right?" "No." "I thought that was like old wives' tale or something." "Okay, okay." "Um..." "Why don't we just pretend that you never asked me and I never said yes and you can ask him." "Why don't we just go there together and tell him," ""Hey, we're getting married"?" "You need to do it man-to-man." "Okay." "Man-to-man." "Could you please not throw my tools around?" "I thought you said you were gonna take care of my truck, Billy, while I was gone." "Well, I did take care of it." "If you didn't drive around like an idiot all the time, maybe it'd be running fine still." "I hate your tools." "I don't even know why you care about this truck." "You're not even going to be here." "You're going to Alaska, I thought." "I may or may not be going to Alaska." "Is it 'cause you raw-dogged Tyra the other night?" "I heard." "Hey, buddy." "Tim, don't sleep with my sister." "That's like incest now." "It's not incest." "No, there's no bloodline, so..." "No bloodline." "Yeah." "It's really, really creepy." "Well, maybe, but it's not incest." "Hey, what do you think about me taking Stevie for a bit?" "For the day?" "Really?" "Yep." "I got him." "Some bonding time." "I'm fine with that." "There's no going back." "All right." "I'm getting a bag." "Well, you're working on the fuel line." "It's not the fuel line." "It's got to be the accelerator pump." "This is our high-dollar tree, 30, 25, and then right here we got 15." "And then over here, we have..." "We have..." "Hey, baby." "What's up, Mama?" "Excuse me." "What you got for me?" "I brought you some food to eat." "Wait, aren't you supposed to be at practice throwing a ball or something?" "You gotta eat, right?" "Yeah, I gotta eat." "Oh, I gotta tell you, I'm riding with Moody's parents to the game." "Going to State, how about that?" "That's what I'm talking about." "That's what I'm talking about." "So proud." "Ah!" "Have you heard from Dad?" "You know, you don't want him there." "Mama, the State, once in a lifetime." "Yeah, I know it's once in a lifetime, but this is your moment." "All right?" "And I don't want him taking that away from you." "All right, get out of here." "Go throw some passes." "Do what you do." "I'm trying to win State." "Okay, Ma." "Number five!" "And so for those reasons, sir, among many others," "I'm asking for your daughter's hand in marriage, sir." "What?" "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "No, I think it's really good." "Really?" "Really?" "No." "Landry, this is serious, okay?" "You're not helping." "Do you have any suggestions?" "Any constructive criticism maybe?" "Should I talk about Chicago more, you know, and how I got promotions at the art gallery?" "No, whatever you do, do not mention the fact that you work at an art gallery." "That's not gonna be assuring for a football coach." "That's true." "I think you need to walk in there, you need to plant your feet, and you need to be assertive and you say," ""Coach Taylor, I'm gonna marry your daughter."" ""Marry your daughter."" ""I love her..." You can fill in the blanks with all that." "Right." "Right." ""She's the light of my life..." Whatever." "Exactly." "That's what I was trying to do." "Or you go in, plant your feet and you just start crying, and you just say..." "Great." "You want me to just cry to Coach." "That's really helpful." "That's really, really helpful." "I'm just saying you can't just be wishy-washy like you're doing right now." "This whole thing is crazy, okay?" "So, if you can give me some real help..." "Please." "The crazy part is that, just a few years ago, we were trying to figure out how we were going to talk to Julie Taylor." "And now, here you are, you're about to marry Julie." "I know." "See what I'm saying?" "So this is just one little, you know, this is one little roadblock." "That's just..." "I think you're over-thinking it." "I mean, it's just Coach, right?" "Yeah!" "Coach and I, we go way back." "Yeah, he's always loved you." "Yeah." "All right, look, we cut everything in half today, all right?" "We're going quick, we're going hard." "What do you say we go win a championship?" "Let's go win a championship." "All right." "Are we gonna have a bar in the hotel?" "Yes." "Excuse me." "Coach." "Yes..." "Yes or no?" "Am I going with you or not?" "Going where?" "To the Panthers, the super team." "Who said anything about that?" "Coach, everyone's talking about that." "That's just rumors." "I wouldn't be listening to rumors." "Well, if the rumors happen to be true, will you consider it?" "I'll tell you what, I hear what you're saying, but you couldn't be picking a worse time to be bringing that up." "It's already under consideration." "Let's go." "Move it out." "Let's go!" "On the line!" "Line it up on the 40." "Boosters." "They could be your worst enemy, yet your best friend." "Even more importantly, right there." "You see that?" "Yeah." "Never turn away a mammary." "Yeah, that's your old man yelling." "Special teams doesn't get water." "Line it up." "On the 40 right now." "Tink, what's wrong with you?" "It's gonna be my last game, Vince." "I'm done." "I'm not going to the super team." "Who told you that?" "Somebody tell you that?" "What they gonna say?" ""Come on"?" "Look, I got some pull over there at the Panthers, all right?" "I gonna talk to Coach." "I got you." "All right." "Keep your head up." "Keep working hard." "We got State to look forward to, you hear me?" "All right, let's stop lollygagging and let's do something out here!" "Come on!" "Brian, Ed, move your asses." "Come on, now." "Look what we got here." "Hey, Coach." "How are you?" "Good." "Hey, there." "This is Stevie." "Stevie, Coach." "Coach, Stevie." "Billy's young'un." "How are you, son?" "Coach Eric Taylor, nice to meet you." "You sure as hell ain't acting like it!" "Screaming like your brother." "I know." "Well, nah, he's a good guy." "Hey, let me ask you something." "You doing all right working over at Buddy's there?" "It's a job right now." "If there's anything that you need, you damn well know to call me, yeah?" "Yes, sir." "Thank you." "You getting yourself another ring this year, huh?" "Got a damn good chance." "Oh, don't make me do it." "What are you doing?" "It's Tim's laundry." "Ew!" "It's Riggins' underwear!" "Don't touch me with it." "Don't touch me with it." "Ugh!" "You know what?" "This is Tyra's job now." "She should be the one doing this." "Yeah, yeah." "Just shut it." "But everyone else can talk about it but me?" "Nobody talks about it, and it is gross and weird anyway." "Yeah, okay." "And you have Luke and that is all that matters." "Well, they can have my room when I'm gone." "Where are you going?" "My mom called." "And she's coming back into town this week." "So I'm going to be staying with her." "I figure it's kind of a good thing 'cause it's getting really crowded around here and..." "No, that's awesome." "Your mom..." "Your mom's coming home." "Yeah." "So, when is that happening?" "Thursday." "Thursday." "Or Saturday or Sunday." "I don't know." "I'll find out tomorrow." "Cool, Thursday sounds really great." "Hey, if you need help packing your stuff up, that is exactly what Billy is here for." "Okay." "Sir, I have known your daughter for a very long time now." "And I know you've known me for a long time, too, since I was young." "Mmm-hmm." "I mean, not that I'm old." "I'm not old now." "But I'm very mature for my age." "I'd like your permission to marry your daughter, sir." "You..." "You what?" "You what?" "Say again?" "I would like to marry Julie." "I love her completely, and I'm going to take care of her for the rest of her life." "So, I'd just really like..." "I'd like your blessing to ask her to marry me..." "Sir." "Matt, how old are you?" "Nineteen." "You're only 19 years old." "Yes, sir." "Matt, how old is my daughter?" "Eighteen." "She's 18." "Yes, sir." "I've got a job up in Chicago at a..." "I've already gotten two promotions." "The answer to your question is no." "And the answer to your question is going to be no today, it's going to be no tomorrow, and it'll probably be no until the sun burns out." "Is that clear?" "Well, the thing is, sir, we don't actually need your permission." "You damn well do need my permission." "No, we actually don't." "I already asked her, she already said yes, so, you know, this is really just a courtesy." "I was just hoping for your blessing." "Let me do you the courtesy of telling you that my daughter's answer to you is no." "Tami!" "Hey, honey." "You know, I wanted to talk to you about what you said about us not being East Coast people." "I mean, you know how much I love Texas." "I love it here so much, but we will never know if we're not East Coast..." "We've got a really big problem." "We can always come back." "We have got a much bigger problem than what you're talking about." "What?" "Matt Saracen asked your daughter to marry him." "Julie?" "What are you talking about?" "No, Gracie!" "Yes, Julie." "He came into my office today and he asked for Julie's hand in marriage." "He asked me for her hand in marriage." "At least he had the decency to come talk to you about it." "No, he didn't have any decency to come talk to me 'cause he already talked to her." "And you know what your daughter said?" "Your daughter said yes." "No." "Oh, yes." "No." "Yes." "No." "Yes." "No." "Yes." "They're too young." "That's what I said." "That's crazy." "Honey, what did you tell him?" "I said, "Oh, great, let's break out some champagne." ""This is going to be fantastic."" "I don't know why you're yelling at me!" "I think we agree on this!" "Hey." "Hey." "So your dad told me the news." "Did Matt talk to Dad?" "Mmm-hmm." "Did Dad flip?" "Mmm-hmm." "Honey..." "Did you see the ring?" "It was his grandma's." "That's beautiful, hon." "It's just y'all are so young." "I know that it seems like that, but I love him more than anything, Mom." "Well, your dad and I would love to take you and Matt to dinner." "As like a celebration dinner?" "Like a conversation dinner." "Okay." "What's that?" "Who..." "What's that?" "Look at who's here!" "Hi!" "Hi, my boy." "Hi, there, sweetheart." "Thank you for my little Christmas present." "Hello." "Thank you." "Tyra?" "Tyra, come on out here." "Come on out here." "No!" "Hi!" "Hi, Tim." "Hey, baby." "Yeah, we were in the neighborhood, so we just decided to stop by." "Good, I'm so glad." "You want a beer, honey?" "Sit down." "Sure." "Thank you." "What are you doing tomorrow night?" "I'm actually supposed to go to Buddy's with Matt and Julie." "Seven's in town." "Yeah." "Yeah, he and Julie got engaged." "Are you serious?" "Yep." "Oh, somebody has a poopy diaper." "Honey?" "I got it, Mama." "Will you come and take him?" "Mmm-hmm." "Yeah, my days of changing diapers are over." "Here, little fella, little man." "Yeah." "Come here, beautiful boy." "But bring him back." "So, I guess I'll see you there tomorrow night then." "Yeah, of course." "So the kid was doing the three-step drop." "I said, "No." "No, no, no." "You got an arm, right?" ""You gotta use that arm."" "Now, he let out a bullet right in the numbers." "Yo, Pop." "The crowd went..." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "What are you doing on this side of town, boy?" "Hmm?" "I heard you all west side." "Huh?" "Super team." "Right?" "You don't got to come out here checking up on me, boy." "How your mama doing?" "She all right." "Tell her I said, "Hey."" "I'm sorry." "Yes, sir." "What you want, man?" "You just going to stand here?" "We got State on Saturday." "Yeah, I know you got State on Saturday." "I live here." "I heard all about it." "I got you a ticket." "I want you to be there." "I got things to do on that day, man." "You know, a lot of things." "I'll be watching." "Thank you." "See you soon." "All right." "Hey, Tim Riggins." "Yes." "Yes." "Miss Sproles." "How's it going?" "Hi." "I'm gonna miss this little guy." "What do you mean, "miss"?" "Where are you going?" "Home." "Home?" "Yeah, my mom's coming back, so..." "I don't know, it's probably for the best." "I think I wore my welcome out with Mindy." "I doubt that." "She's probably gonna miss you more than you know." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "What about you?" "I hear you're moving to Alaska." "What do you think?" "We don't know yet." "I don't know." "So I did the whole high school thing." "Right." "And you were right, and I'm really glad that I made these memories." "Me, too." "And..." "I'm finally over my crush." "Okay." "So, friends?" "Let's say family." "I'll see you, Becks." "See you." "Listen up, ladies!" "Ladies!" "Coach Traub here has your tickets to the State Championship game this week." "There's two tickets for everybody." "For your family, for your friends, whoever you want to bring." "So when I call your name, get your ass up here." "Tinker." "Tinker!" "Rodriguez!" "Rodriguez!" "Olson!" "Olson!" "Moody." "Moody." "Martinez." "Can I get two more?" "No, you can't get two more." "Go sit down." "Rocko!" "Rocko!" "Garrity!" "Garrity!" "Howard!" "Howard!" "Garcia!" "Garcia!" "Two tears in the bucket..." "I only need one, Coach." "What?" "I only need one." "All right." "Ellis!" "Ellis!" "Eatin!" "Eatin!" "Cafferty!" "Cafferty!" "Foster!" "Foster!" "Davis." "Davis." "Hernandez." "Hernandez." "We just don't want you to rush into anything 'cause you don't need to." "Right." "And we're not rushing into anything." "It's not like we're getting married tomorrow." "And you guys were our age when you got married." "That was a different time." "Well, and we were a little bit older." "You were still in college..." "It was a different time." "It's just..." "I love your daughter." "I love Julie and I want to marry her, that's it." "Maybe you don't understand exactly what I'm saying, Matt." "Marriage requires maturity." "Marriage requires two people who, for the rest of their lives, are willing to listen, to really listen to each other." "And that marriage requires the greatest of all things, which is compromise." "We're willing to make it work." "Yeah." "Look at you guys." "You guys were married when you were our age." "How many different jobs have you had?" "How many times have you moved?" "And how many difficult things have you gone through?" "And you guys have made it work." "So, uh..." "You guys are my inspiration." "Would y'all excuse me for just a quick second?" "It's my turn, babe." "I have loved you and you have loved me and we have compromised." "Both of us." "For your job." "And now it's time to talk about doing that for my job." "Because otherwise what am I gonna tell our daughter?" "You just can't..." "Let's just go back inside." "Come on." "How do you propose we're gonna make a decision if you're not gonna talk to me?" "I believe I have talked to you." "And I have decided I'm gonna say no to Braemore." "I'm never gonna win this fight." "All right." "You guys still awake?" "Hey, sweetie." "Hey." "How are you?" "Pretty good." "I know you guys think that I'm young, and that I'm making the wrong decision, and that I'm gonna drop out of college, or whatever, but that's not me, and you guys should know that." "It's about getting to spend the rest of my life with my best friend." "I want you to be on my side, and I want you to trust me that I'm making the right decision." "We do trust you." "And we want you to be happy." "You know, Billy, I really..." "I want you to know that I really do appreciate you." "Don't worry about it." "Really." "Don't worry about it." "I'll get that." "Mindy." "I feel like you think that I'm just gonna leave and forget everything that you guys did for me." "But that's not happening." "I love Stevie." "And I'm gonna love the twins just as much." "And I'm gonna be over at y'all's house all the time, whether you like it or not." "We're family." "I'm a sister." "Becky!" "Hey, big girl!" "Mom." "It's so good to see you!" "Did you have fun?" "I had fun, but I missed you so much." "You look really pretty." "I do?" "Yeah." "You look beautiful." "Oh, baby." "Last one is a rotten egg!" "Okay, okay, really?" "Who'd y'all make this mess for?" "We're going to Dallas." "Yeah!" "We're going to Dallas!" "What are y'all talking about?" "Your dad called." "You know the franchise he started in Dallas?" "Well, that thing took off, so he's starting another Ray's down there." "And he's moving you all to live with him." "Oh, yeah?" "Freeze!" "You ain't gonna make that." "Mmm-mmm." "Mmm-mmm." "Mmm-mmm." "Too much greens, huh?" "Too much green." "Young man gets a chance at that maybe once in a lifetime." "No, I don't want to hear it." "I'm sorry." "No." "Well, it's the truth." "What is he doing here?" "Who's that?" "Is that that Luke kid?" "That's Luke." "He's a little hottie." "Mom." "Well, he is." "Well, yes." "Be cool." "I'm cool." "What are you doing here?" "What's all this?" "Good evening." "How you doing?" "I miss you." "I'm crazy about you." "I was stupid." "I'm really sorry." "Hi." "I'm Cheryl." "It's very nice to meet you." "It's nice to meet you, too." "Welcome back." "Thank you very much." "Such a sweetheart." "As long as he learns how to wear a condom." "I'm serious." "Yes, ma'am." "I'll kill you." "Yes, ma'am." "Thanks, Mom." "Nice to meet you." "Very nice to meet you, ma'am." "Hey." "I love you." "I'm so sorry." "It's okay." "I want to be with you." "You are with me." "I want to be with you forever and ever and ever." "All right." "Ah, there he is." "Really?" "All right." "To Mr. and Mrs. Saracen." "Cheers, guys." "Congratulations." "I always thought you'd be the first person to say that." "So, where'd you do it?" "Um..." "The Alamo." "The Alamo Freeze." "Are you serious?" "Wow, that's amazing, actually." "It was amazing." "It's sentimental, is what it is." "Of course, of course." "Whatever." "This is crazy." "Look at us." "Y'all are engaged." "I'm halfway through college, kicking ass by the way." "And I'm out on good behavior." "Hear, hear to that!" "Sweetness." "Cheers on that." "Here's to that." "Let's dance." "Let's do it." "Come on." "Let's dance." "What do you say?" "This feels right." "You're just lonely, Tim." "No, I'm not." "I can't do this again with you." "I've got plans." "I don't." "What?" "Stop that." "Honey." "Stop." "Please turn that off." "Mmm-mmm." "What?" "Morning." "Hey." "Hey, Buddy, Jr.'s staying with me el permanente." "What the hell are you doing?" "Yes, the cast comes off in four weeks." "Who's that?" "He's rehabbing." "He's getting ready for summer ball and then he'll be ready to be on the super team." "Yeah, that's great." "Why are you calling this early, waking the whole damn family up?" "I mean, I just needed to talk to you before you left for State." "Can you believe it, Eric?" "State Championship." "Yeah, I know." "Listen, anyway, they wanted me to get you to sign before you left for the game." "Sign what?" "The contract with West Dillon, with the Panthers." "So I thought maybe I could just stop by the field house and you could look over the contract and sign it, and then that'll just clear your mind." "You can just focus on the State game." "You don't have to think about anything." "Sound like a plan?" "Hey, you know what?" "Do me a favor." "Don't ever call me at this time of morning again." "I don't care what you've got to talk about." "You hear me?" "Oh, okay." "Sorry." "Sorry I called so early." "Bye." "Who is that?" "Who do you think?" "I don't know." "Buddy, that's who it is." "They want me to sign the contract before I go up to State." "Today?" "I'm taking Gracie Belle to see Santa Claus today." "Good?" "LUKE:" "No, no." "No, no, no." "Mmm-hmm?" "Coach?" "My dad's starting another business in Dallas, so after this semester I'm going to be living in Dallas and won't be a part of your..." "Your super team after all." "You'll be missed." "I mean that sincerely, you will be missed." "Coach, I can't tell you how much this season's meant to me." "Being a part of the Lions has been the greatest experience of my life." "I think it's been mine, too." "I happen to know the coach down there at Dallas, Walker, if you have any..." "Any interest in me giving him a call and putting the word in for you." "Thanks, Coach." "Consider it done." "Appreciate you." "Thanks." "It's for the tree." "I'm not the tree." "Kids, come here." "I found it." "I knew I would." "It was in that back bedroom under all that junk." "Oh!" "Julie, you got to see this, honey." "I'd forgotten how pretty it is." "It is." "I can't believe it's this white." "Look at it." "Oh, me." "You know, I think Julie might actually want to get her own dress, Grandma." "Oh, nonsense." "This might need a little washing. "Nonsense."" "But I can do it." "I think I can do it in the kitchen sink." "Oh, I'm so glad I found it for you, honey." "Could I..." "Could I look at the ring on you?" "Yeah." "You like it?" "It's beautiful, Mrs. Saracen." "Honey..." "You can call me "Grandma" now." "You know, we're family." "I love you." "I love you, too." "Now, I've got to look for some shoes and veil." "I don't know." "I don't think..." "My feet have always been extra small." "Well, you just find them, and then we'll check it out, okay?" "Yeah." "We'll have to see." "Hey, what's the matter?" "Do you think we're making the right decision?" "I mean, we're still really young and everything my mom and dad said..." "And we don't even live in the same state, Matt." "Julie, it doesn't matter." "It doesn't matter if we live in the same state, it doesn't matter how old we are," "we know we love each other." "And we know..." "We know we're perfect together." "You really believe that?" "Yeah." "It's going to be perfect." "Look!" "Lookie here!" "Oh, wow." "What do you think?" "Miss Merriweather, can I talk to you for a second?" "Yeah." "What's up?" "What?" "What are you smiling for?" "At first, I hated you on this team." "Look how far we've come." "We're getting ready to go to State." "I feel like one of the luckiest men in the world." "Who gets a chance to..." "Who gets a chance to share it with his girlfriend?" "I love you." "I'm so glad that you're a part of this team." "I'm not sure what I want to do yet, but don't laugh," "I'm thinking politics." "Are you laughing right now?" "Inside?" "No." "No." "Yes." "Yes." "Tim Riggins, you are." "No, I'm not." "You are laughing." "I'm not laughing inside." "You are lying to me right now." "Okay, when you say, like, politics, do you mean like Sarah Palin kind of stuff?" "Or..." "No, you ass." "Out of all people, really?" "No, I'm thinking more along the lines of Mrs. T." "Yeah, except bigger." "I can see that." "Tim," "I've been in love with you since I was five years old." "And being here with you, it's the greatest feeling I've had in a really long time." "Me, too." "It scares the hell out of me." "I have dreams, Tim." "I know you do." "I have dreams, too." "I'm going to build a house exactly where we're sitting." "I will get a job." "And I'm never going to do anything illegal for the rest of my life." "Guaranteed." "Maybe one day our dreams can merge together." "Are you gonna say "Hi" to Santa Claus?" "Hi, Santa." "This is Gracie Belle." "Hi." "There you go, honey." "Smile, honey." "Oh, smile, Gracie Belle." "Tell Santa what you want for Christmas." "Oh, your daddy's going to love that." "Smile, Gracie." "Oh, my Lord!" "Oh, my Lord!" "Hey, kiddo." "Get her picture now." "Hey, Santa Claus." "My hands are shaking now." "Come on, smile." "Smile." "There you go." "All right." "All right, smile." "We got it." "Okay." "We got 'em." "Thank you, Santa Claus." "Come here, sweet girl." "Can I talk to you real quick?" "What in the world?" "You scared me half to death." "Is everything okay?" "You're supposed to be on your way to State." "What's going on?" "I turned the contract down." "It's your turn." "I want to go to Philadelphia." "Really, babe?" "Will you take me to Philadelphia with you, please?" "Do you have the time here?" "Yeah, we got eight minutes, Coach." "They're ready." "You may never know how proud I am of you." "You changed my life, Coach." "Y'all ready?" "Yes, sir." "Dear heavenly Father," "keep us and protect us tonight." "Please allow us to take the talents that you've given us and use them to the very best this evening as a family," "as one." "Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever." "Amen." "Amen!" "the second they come off that clock..." "This has been absolute war tonight, folks." "The Lions of East Dillon have one last shot." "Coach Taylor is out of time outs." "Sixty-three yards." "You've got to give the receivers time." "Yes, sir." "And here we go, ladies and gentlemen." "Vince Howard to the line." "If the dream is going to happen, it has to happen right now." "This is for everything." "Attaboy, attaboy!" "Let's go, fellows." "Let's go." "Bye." "Hit me." "CROWLEY:" "Good." "Come on!" "Come on!" "Hit!" "Good." "Good." "Good." "Let's go." "Hey." "Come on." "Hey." "Concentrate." "Up!" "Get ready." "Texas forever." "Texas forever." "Stop!" "Go!" "Stop!" "Go!" "Do you know what I just realized, fellows?" "That is we got a long way to go, gentlemen." "A long way to go." "And you know what?" "I'm looking forward to it." "Tonight you go home, you get your studies done, you get your rest 'cause you're gonna be back here tomorrow at 6:00 a.m." "That means no later than 5:45." "Understood?" "Yes, sir." "Clear eyes, full hearts." "Yeah, we'll deal with that later." "Grab a lap." "Have a good night, gentlemen." "Good work today." "Have a good night." "Good job." "Thanks, Coach." "Come on." "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "You ready to go home?" "Yeah." "Let's go."
