Beer, please.

819

01:
07:25,935 -- 01:07:27,144

Hey, Ryan.

820

01:
07:26,936 -- 01:07:31,107

Hey, Katie. It's nice to see you

out of your mascot uniforms.

821

01:
07:31,733 -- 01:07:35,112

The mascot search is over.

Nobody gets it.

822

01:
07:35,988 -- 01:07:37,030

I quit.

823

01:
07:36,571 -- 01:07:40,826

Don't quit. You just have to figure out

the true spirit of Chatham.

824

01:
07:41,286 -- 01:07:42,912

Trust your heart on this one.

825

01:
07:43,538 -- 01:07:44,831

Hello, Ryan.

826

01:
07:44,414 -- 01:07:47,959

I'm glad you came.

You look very nice tonight.

827

01:
07:48,041 -- 01:07:49,293

Thank you, Mrs. Parrish.

828

01:
07:49,918 -- 01:07:51,795

Make yourself at home.

829

01:
07:52,130 -- 01:07:55,341

Hey, Ryan. Glad you could make it.

How are you?

830

01:
07:55,257 -- 01:07:57,259

- Walk with me, will you?

- Yes, sir.

831

01:
08:01,806 -- 01:08:04,267

I need you to understand something.

832

01:
08:04,601 -- 01:08:07,855

I know this is difficult,

but let's be realistic.

833

01:
08:08,396 -- 01:08:13,318

We both know this little fling you're having

is going to be over by Labor Day anyway.

834

01:
08:13,485 -- 01:08:15,321

So, I need your help.

835

01:
08:17,113 -- 01:08:19,699

I want Tenley to focus on her future.

836

01:
08:21,368 -- 01:08:22,661

Alone.

837

01:
08:24,954 -- 01:08:28,374

I've known your father a long time.

He's a good man.

838

01:
08:29,001 -- 01:08:31,587

What does my dad have to do

with this?

839

01:
08:31,712 -- 01:08:36,342

I don't want to see anybody get hurt.

But you've stepped over a boundary here, son.

840

01:
08:36,342 -- 01:08:38,302

A boundary? What boundary?

841

01:
08:38,595 -- 01:08:42,641

You know damn well what the boundaries are here.

They're as old as Chatham itself.

842

01:
08:42,766 -- 01:08:44,434

What are you trying to tell me?

843

01:
08:45,309 -- 01:08:47,603

Along with a number of my friends...

844

01:
08:47,770 -- 01:08:51,106

I'd have to take a good hard look

at our arrangements with your father.

845

01:
08:52,651 -- 01:08:53,777

What?

846

01:
08:55,862 -- 01:08:58,698

- Ryan, I'm thinking of you here.

- Yeah.

847

01:
08:59,824 -- 01:09:04,120

And I'm thinking of you, Rand,

when I say you can take this lawn job...

848

01:
09:04,079 -- 01:09:05,705

and shove it up your ass.

849

01:
09:07,124 -- 01:09:11,045

He'll be here tomorrow.

I guarantee.

850

01:
09:18,009 -- 01:09:19,469

I'll be right back.

851

01:
09:23,473 -- 01:09:24,891

Where are you going?

852

01:
09:29,772 -- 01:09:33,275

Just meet me tomorrow night

at the field after the game.

853

01:
09:57,134 -- 01:09:59,219

Rand Parrish said that?

854

01:
10:00,430 -- 01:10:04,976

Sometimes parents get too involved

and say stuff they don't mean.

855

01:
10:06,144 -- 01:10:10,023

Forget about it.

You were probably right about Tenley.

856

01:
10:13,442 -- 01:10:15,610

I was really in the bag the other night.

857

01:
10:17,905 -- 01:10:19,657

I said some dumb things.

858

01:
10:22,200 -- 01:10:27,539

The right girl, family,

last you forever.

859

01:
10:37,718 -- 01:10:40,888

Your mother used to say

the reason the Indian rain dance worked...

860

01:
10:40,970 -- 01:10:45,099

is because they wouldn't

stop dancing until it rained.

861

01:
10:46,727 -- 01:10:49,271

Every time it rained, she'd say that.

862

01:
10:53,484 -- 01:10:54,985

Yeah. I remember.

863

01:
10:59,908 -- 01:11:01,409

Stay at it.

864

01:
11:04,120 -- 01:11:07,082

You're a good kid, a good ball player.

865

01:
11:07,707 -- 01:11:10,001

Baseball might be a career for you.

866

01:
11:21,428 -- 01:11:22,805

I would never.

867

01:
11:23,473 -- 01:11:25,892

Come on, Dale. Giddy up.

868

01:
11:26,434 -- 01:11:28,770

- Where are you going?

- To get a better view.

869

01:
11:29,437 -- 01:11:32,524

Come on, Tenley.

Are you staying in Chatham?

870

01:
11:32,607 -- 01:11:35,402

Or if I get a tryout somewhere,

are you going to follow me around?

871

01:
11:36,821 -- 01:11:38,739

You're going to San Francisco.

872

01:
11:39,698 -- 01:11:42,701

If I don't like the job,

maybe I'll just go to graduate school.

873

01:
11:44,954 -- 01:11:46,872

You can go to grad school

anywhere.

874

01:
11:51,335 -- 01:11:52,670

One, two, four!

875

01:
11:57,843 -- 01:12:01,763

- Ladies, Chatham's finest.

- All right.

876

01:
12:02,138 -- 01:12:03,806

Our pride and joy.

877

01:
12:03,807 -- 01:12:05,475

I'm ever honored!

878

01:
12:07,936 -- 01:12:09,354

Thank you, my prince.

879

01:
12:15,277 -- 01:12:16,486

Night-night.

880

01:
12:17,112 -- 01:12:18,989

Careful up there, you two.

881

01:
12:25,746 -- 01:12:29,124

You're not listening to me. My father

won't pay for grad school in architecture.

882

01:
12:29,291 -- 01:12:31,209

So what? You can get loans.

883

01:
12:31,293 -- 01:12:33,003

You don't understand.

884

01:
12:33,421 -- 01:12:35,840

Understand what, being broke?

I understand.

885

01:
12:36,299 -- 01:12:37,550

- No.

- What?

886

01:
12:37,966 -- 01:12:41,261

Doing something you love?

I understand.

887

01:
12:41,511 -- 01:12:45,057

I love standing on that mound

with a baseball in my hand...

888

01:
12:45,475 -- 01:12:48,311

staring at a guy

holding a club 60 feet away...

889

01:
12:48,477 -- 01:12:51,271

knowing that he can't touch me.

890

01:
12:53,858 -- 01:12:57,779

It is the only place in the world

where I feel powerful.

891

01:
13:00,365 -- 01:13:04,619

Sh*t!

I'll probably end up cutting grass.

892

01:
13:05,412 -- 01:13:09,667

- Why are you so scared?

- Scared of what?

893

01:
13:09,749 -- 01:13:14,879

Of everything.

Success. Love.

894

01:
13:15,714 -- 01:13:20,135

You say you love being out on that mound.

Why would you ever settle for cutting grass?

895

01:
13:20,636 -- 01:13:23,847

Wait a second, who's scared?

I can't control my career, you can.

896

01:
13:24,056 -- 01:13:26,183

If you love architecture so much,...

897

01:
13:26,101 -- 01:13:28,395

why are you going to settle

for the life your daddy set up for you?

898

01:
13:29,895 -- 01:13:31,981

What do you want me to do?

899

01:
13:36,777 -- 01:13:41,115

Get on a plane.

Go to San Francisco.

900

01:
13:41,573 -- 01:13:42,908

- What?

- This is never...

901

01:
13:44,119 -- 01:13:45,370

Sh*t!

902

01:
13:45,620 -- 01:13:47,038

Why did you lock the door?

903

01:
13:47,121 -- 01:13:48,247

Get down here!

904

01:
13:55,047 -- 01:13:56,924

Van Leemer and Lauren are still

locked upstairs!

905

01:
13:56,923 -- 01:13:58,800

I got them! Get out!

906

01:
14:06,182 -- 01:14:07,517

Get out of here!

907

01:
14:21,282 -- 01:14:23,326

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm okay.

908

01:
14:33,295 -- 01:14:36,340

A's Press Box set ablaze.

909

01:
14:36,756 -- 01:14:40,301

"Tenley Parrish,

daughter of Rand and Victoria Parrish...

910

01:
14:40,302 -- 01:14:42,471

and A's pitcher, Ryan Dunne...

911

01:
14:42,471 -- 01:14:44,264

watched firemen extinguish a blaze...
