ALBUM AWAY FROM YOU."

TERRY REFUSES, OF COURSE.

THINGS ESCALATE,

OLD TENSIONS BOIL OVER...

BOOM, EVAN PULLS

A GUN ON TERRY.

YEAH, AS A D.A.,

I WOULDN'T PROSECUTE HIM.

LET'S GO TALK TO HIM.

MAYBE HE'LL CONFESS.

SHOULD I BE GOOD COP

OR BAD COP?

LET'S BE LAWYERS.

THAT'LL NEVER WORK.

[MILES]:
SO, THE LAST TIME

WE WERE HERE,

WE ESTABLISHED:

THAT TERRY YASBECK

STOLE YOUR WIFE.

THAT'S FAIR TO SAY?

HE COULDN'T STEAL HER.

I DIDN'T OWN LINDA,

I WAS MARRIED TO HER,

AND YEAH, SHE CHOSE

TERRY OVER ME,

AND I LET HER GO,

END OF STORY.

AND YOU DIDN' RESENT THAT AT ALL?

I'VE PUT THAT ALL BEHIND ME.

YOU SEEM AWFULLY FORGIVING

TOWARD TERRY YASBECK,

I MEAN,

COMPARED TO THE OTHER DAY

WHEN WE WERE HERE.

YEAH, YOU KNOW,

I FEEL BAD ABOUT THAT.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE SPOKEN

ABOUT HIM THAT WAY

SO SOON AFTER...

AFTER YOU KILLED HIM?

LOOK, I DIDN'T KILL TERRY, OKAY?

BUT YOU HAD:

A REASON TO, RIGHT?.

RIGHT, LOOK...

I GUESS I SHOULDN'T BE

SURPRISED SHE TOLD YOU,

SEEING AS HOW:

YOU ARE HER BROTHER.

SHE IS MY SISTER,

BUT WE'D LIKE TO HEAR I COMING FROM YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

I'M IN LOVE WITH YOUR SISTER,

AND WHEN I FOUND OU HOW TERRY WAS TREATING HER,

AFTER WHAT HE DID TO ME...

YEAH, I WAS ANGRY,

VERY ANGRY.

SO YOU WEN TO SEE HIM THAT NIGHT.

HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT?

I DIDN'T...

UNTIL JUST NOW.

YEAH, YEAH, OKAY,

I WENT TO SEE HIM,

BUT IT WAS JUST TO GET HER

OUT OF THE CONTRACT.

I WANTED TO GET HER ALBUM BACK,

AND WE GOT INTO AN ARGUMENT.

AND?

AND THAT'S IT.

HE WOULDN'T DO EITHER.

HE JUST LAUGHED AT ME,

SO I WENT HOME AND...

YOU KNOW, I FIGURED I'D LE THE LAWYERS HANDLE IT.

AND THAT'S IT?

THAT'S IT.

I DON'T BELIEVE

YOU, MR. CARLTON.

WHAT DO YOU WANT, HUH?

DO YOU WANT TO LOOK

AT MY COMPUTER,

SEE IF HER ALBUM'S THERE?

WE DON'T HAVE

A WARRANT.

YOU DON'T NEED ONE.

I'LL LOOK FOR YOU.

HER ALBUM IS CALLED

"JOURNEY TO

THE CENTER OF MY SOUL."

BE MY RIDE OR DIE

EVERY SINGLE DAY AND NIGHT

NEVER GONNA LEAVE

YOUR SIDE, LOVE

WELL, WELL.

WHAT'S THAT, MR. CARLTON?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IT'S HER ALBUM.

I DON'T CARE IF THEY SAY

SLOW DOWN, TOO YOUNG

I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY SAY

SO EVAN HAS MY ALBUM?

THAT'S AMAZING.

DO YOU KNOW:

EVAN IS IN LOVE WITH YOU?

YES.

YES.

ARE YOU IN LOVE WITH HIM?

YES.

YES?

WHY...

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US THAT?

I JUST, I DIDN'T THINK

IT WAS IMPORTANT.

OR WAS IT BECAUSE

YOU WERE PROTECTING HIM?

WAS IT BECAUSE YOU THOUGH THAT GAVE HIM A MOTIVE?

DO YOU THINK:

EVAN CARLTON KILLED TERRY?

I... I THINK

HE COULD HAVE...

FOR ME.

[COACH]:

HE'S STILL NO PLAYING HER.

HE'S GOING

TO PUT HER IN.

HE'S JUST WAITING

FOR THE RIGHT TIME.

HE'S ACTUALLY

A VERY REASONABLE GUY.

ABOUT HIM THAT WAY

BEFORE YOU GUYS:

TO GIVE HIM A PIECE

OF YOUR MIND.

DON'T THINK I WON'T!

I'M SURE YOU WILL.

[CLAIRE]:

WHAT DID YOU THINK

YOU WERE DOING OUT THERE?

WHAT?

I LET YOUR GRANDDAUGHTER

BE THE HERO.

YOU WERE SETTING HER UP.

YOU WANTED TO CUT HER

FROM THE TEAM.

YOU COULD CHOOSE

TO BELIEVE THAT...

OR YOU COULD CHOOSE

TO BELIEVE:

THAT I GAVE HER A CHANCE

TO SINK OR SWIM,

AND SHE SWAM.

[JOANNA]:

AND WHAT ABOUT NEXT WEEK?

[COACH]:

I'LL GIVE HER ANOTHER CHANCE.

YOU'RE GOING

TO LET HER PITCH?

WE'LL SEE.

YOU DON'T TREAT ANY

OF THE OTHER KIDS LIKE THIS.

NO, I DON'T.

BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL.

SHE'S SPECIAL...

UNLIKE THE OTHER KIDS.
