I didn't recognize

you out of uniform.

Awesome game today.

- Oh, thanks bill.

Hey I saw your

playback of the game.

You got totally screwed, dude.

They should've thrown

a flag on that play.

- Yeah, well, once the media

labels you butterfingers

you can't really come

back from that, so.

But thanks anyway.

- Mm-hmm.

See you later, boys.

- Thank you so much.

There's nothing like

drunk frat boys.

- That's because

you haven't been

around drunk sorority girls.

- Mm.

- Excuse me.

- Hey,

I'll let you go ahead of me.

Only if you let

me interview you.

- Okay.

Tomorrow after practice?

- Okay.

- Cool.

- Hi.

Konnichiwa, hey hey, Jambo..

Welcome to the neighborhood.

We brought muffins.

- Thank you.

- I'm Karen Curtis.

This is my daughter, Emily.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- It's a bad time?

We can come back.

- Oh, no.

I'm sorry.

Please come in.

I'm Susan.

- Hi.

For you.

- Oh, thank you.

- Hope you like bran.

- Mm.

Please excuse the mess.

We're still settling in.

- Oh, no, don't worry.

Moving in is such a nightmare,

especially with children.

Do you have kids?

- Not yet, but we're

talking about it.

- Nice.

Which one of you is gonna carry?

- Oh, definitely me.

- Me too.

I loved it.

We both did, actually.

Having a kid is a

wonderful experience.

- Mom, look at how

pretty this picture is.

- Oh.

- Honey?

You seen my keys?

The nurse just called.

She's awake, so I need

to get over there.

- I think we caught

you at a bad time.

- Honey, look what the

neighbors brought us.

Muffins.

- Well, that's very neighborly.

- Well, I'll let you

finish what you're doing.

- Sorry, I'm on call

this weekend, so...

- but maybe next week

we can have dinner?

- Yeah, sure.

I do have to check with my wife.

We have very busy schedules.

But I will get back to you.

Come on, Emily.

- Nice meeting you.

- It was really

nice to meet you too, Emily.

- Take care.

- When are we gonna

have dinner with them?

- Sweetie, I'm sorry,

that's not gonna happen.

- Why not?

- Well, it just can't.

- But you said you wanted

to make them feel welcome.

- I did, but that was before.

- Before what?

- Before I knew they were 'Ros.

- What's a 'Ro?

- Heterosexual.

- What's a heterosexual?

- Something you're

too young to know about.

I'm okay with it,

but your mother would

never associate with them.

Come on.

- I know, but why?

- Why is there sky?

- I don't know,

because god made one?

- Good answer.

- God blesses you on this day,

and forgives all those

that ask his forgiveness.

Proceed, my child.

- Since our last

conversation, I just,

I decided to let

go of expectation

and be a little bit more

like I am on the field,

present, you know what I mean?

I feel like my life is,

it's like a big

practice session,

like I keep waiting

for the big game,

and the game never comes.

- Give yourself to the

fervor of his word,

and comfort yourself

in your faith.

- Okay.

You're on the field.

And your focus is on the ball.

Your adrenaline surges

as the ball snaps.

- All right, all right, I'm

seeing a lot of heart out there.

I like heart.

Hit the showers.

Get some rest, ladies.

That's it.

- Your hands sting from

the impact of the ball.

There's just nothing else

that makes me feel more alive.

You scan the field

for a receiver.

Your heart starts pounding,

because you can feel the

defense closing in on you.

It takes me beyond

anything in my real life.

I wish life was like that.

Did you get all that?

- Yeah, it's great.

I feel like I'm right

there with you.

Here with me

- and Jude, god bless you.

Good game on Saturday.

You keep those wins coming.

- Thanks for meeting me.

- Yeah, anything for the fans.

I should go.

- Yeah, of course.

- See ya.

- See ya.

- Woo!

All right, well, Curtis.

Curtis?

You have to actually

throw the ball.

- I tried, coach.

- Well, try harder,

I don't know,

or maybe try drama

club, I don't know.

- My moms want me

to play football.

- Well, football is

not for everyone.

Hey, Santilli?

Help Curtis out of her gear.

- Yes, coach!

- All right, show's over!

Let's go!

I want to see you on the run!

- Come on, Emily.

- I wanna see some jumps

and I wanna see them now!

- Let me take your helmet.

Turn around towards the bleachers

so they don't see you cry.

She can be really

mean sometimes.

At least she didn't yell at

you in front of everybody.

That's the worst.

- Did she do that to you?

- Yeah.

Told me I was so uncoordinated

even Jesus wouldn't

want to play with me.

- Faster!

You call that running?!

- So how'd you end up being

the equipment manager?

- My dads begged the coach

not to cut me from the team,

so she made me the towel

boy of the girls' team.

- Sorry.

- It's okay.

I don't listen to her when

she's really mean like that.

Neither should you.

- I know it's kinda dorky,

but sometimes I wish the

school had a croquet team.

I'm good at that.

- No way?

Me too.

- Really?

You want to come over

and play it sometime?

- Sure.

- Maybe like Saturday?

Hey, four eyes!

Quit your gum flapping!

Get me some water!

- Coming, coach.

See you Saturday.

- See ya.

- No!

What is this?

Not the bucket!

A cup!

- Okay.

He woke me up this morning

- look at that.

- Keep the kid still, please.

- It's perfect.

This is exactly the

kind of inspiration

that our congregation needs.

I love it.

Reverend Rachel.

Hey, bill, how are you?

What can I do for you?

- Hold the baby still please.

- Really?

Okay, well, have you

been praying about it?

Well, you're doing god's work.

You let the lord be with you

and all your questions

are gonna be answered.

Talk to you soon.

Bye.

Look what I have!

Let me see that shot.

- Aunt Rachel?

- That is so good.

That is so good.

Yes, honey?

- CBS news wants to do

an exclusive on today.

- Oh, I think we've done

enough for today, hon.

Reverend Rachel?

- With all the admired beauties

of Verona go thither.

Thither?

Thither.

That makes sense.

- Hey, babe.

What's for dinner?

How about pizza?

- Oh, check the menu drawer.

What else we got?

Remember when we used to

cook for each other?

I miss that.

Well, we got Chinese,

Thai, Japanese.

You feeling any of these?

Dave?

David?

Dave?

- Huh?

Sorry.

- What's going on?

- I am just rewriting

Shakespeare's Romeo and Julio.

- Why?

- Well, I thought

we should do it

as will originally intended.

- Which would be?

- Romeo and Juliet.

- Oh, all right.

- That should

get people talking, right?

- Babe, you know I love you

and I support all of

your causes, but...

- but what?

- This is a hot topic right now.

- Yeah.

- And this will

most definitely put you

on the good reverend

Rachel's radar, believe that.

- Who cares?

I don't care.

Bring it on, please.

What's her problem anyway?

Why is she so fixated

on the hetero issue?

- You don't know?

- If I knew, I

wouldn't have asked.

What?

- I go, okay.

- What?

- Her sister left her wife for
