No, I'm thinking that's what

you're thinking.

554

00:
44:59,168 -- 00:45:01,963

No, I think I can swim the length

and back underwater.

555

00:
45:02,045 -- 00:45:04,214

- $5 says you can't.

- You got it.

556

00:
45:24,944 -- 00:45:26,237

Who's out there?

557

00:
45:28,240 -- 00:45:30,158

Vivi, get me a flashlight!

558

00:
45:53,557 -- 00:45:55,142

You owe me $5.

559

00:
45:55,976 -- 00:45:57,144

Stay right where you are!

560

00:
46:08,072 -- 00:46:10,533

God, the car! Vivi,

call the police!

561

00:
46:24,422 -- 00:46:26,424

If my father catches us,

he'll kill us!

562

00:
46:27,343 -- 00:46:28,844

No, he'll kill me.

563

00:
46:30,929 -- 00:46:32,639

Am I going to see you

tomorrow night?

564

00:
46:33,474 -- 00:46:35,851

Yeah, of course. You don't think

your dad really called the cops, do you?

565

00:
46:37,061 -- 00:46:38,646

Yeah, I'm sure he did.

566

00:
46:40,189 -- 00:46:43,108

He'd really have me handcuffed

and thrown in the back of a cop car?

567

00:
46:43,568 -- 00:46:46,363

No, he'd have you beaten

and dragged first.

568

00:
46:48,698 -- 00:46:50,492

- Okay, then I'm going to go.

- Okay.

569

00:
46:55,163 -- 00:46:56,248

- Bye

- Bye.

570

00:
47:00,459 -- 00:47:02,253

Billy Brubaker steps in...

571

00:
47:02,963 -- 00:47:05,090

still looking for his first hit.

572

00:
47:05,632 -- 00:47:09,344

Sometimes you need a little sunshine

to help break the ice.

573

00:
47:24,235 -- 00:47:25,069

Safe!

574

00:
47:28,530 -- 00:47:32,325

Billy Brubaker has just gotten his first hit

of the Cape League season.

575

00:
47:33,452 -- 00:47:36,163

Now he's grabbing the ball

out of Seaver's hand as a keepsake.

576

00:
47:45,090 -- 00:47:48,468

The A's visit the Yarmouth-Dennis

Red Sox today, and before the game...

577

00:
47:49,051 -- 00:47:52,555

Billy Brubaker told me it's nice

to finally have a batting average.

578

00:
47:55,225 -- 00:47:57,936

Bru's average is climbing every

day now.

579

00:
48:00,564 -- 00:48:03,066

All the way up now to .268.

580

00:
48:13,703 -- 00:48:18,583

The hometown lefty, Ryan Dunne,

continues his Jekyll-and-Hyde ways.

581

00:
49:00,376 -- 00:49:01,710

Strike three!

582

00:
49:02,378 -- 00:49:04,255

You are out of there!

583

00:
49:06,006 -- 00:49:07,132

Give me the ball.

584

00:
49:51,470 -- 00:49:53,598

All right! Way to go!

585

00:
49:54,472 -- 00:49:56,975

I'm proud of you guys.

You're making me look good out there.

586

00:
49:57,935 -- 00:50:00,479

Ryan, you get to start Saturday

against Hyannis.

587

00:
50:01,606 -- 00:50:03,733

You know what they say about

us lefties?

588

00:
50:03,858 -- 00:50:06,902

The Earth's gravitational force

is in our favor. It makes our pitches dance.

589

00:
50:07,361 -- 00:50:09,155

Dunne is going to get lit up.

590

00:
50:11,783 -- 00:50:13,035

Lawn boy.

591

00:
50:13,826 -- 00:50:15,244

Hope you're ready.

592

00:
50:15,369 -- 00:50:16,370

For what?

593

00:
50:17,913 -- 00:50:23,252

Hyannis. It's the best lineup in the League.

You got two guys batting over .400.

594

00:
50:23,669 -- 00:50:26,756

Both of them first rounders,

solid gold bonus babies.

595

00:
50:27,257 -- 00:50:28,258

Yeah. So?

596

00:
50:28,926 -- 00:50:31,762

So everyone in that lineup

can take your yard.

597

00:
50:32,221 -- 00:50:34,474

Every scout in the country

is going to be there.

598

00:
50:34,890 -- 00:50:38,644

I'd think twice before inviting the friends.

It could get embarrassing.

599

00:
50:38,811 -- 00:50:39,812

Come on, man.

600

00:
50:44,107 -- 00:50:45,525

There you go.

601

00:
50:47,152 -- 00:50:50,197

I'm starting against Hyannis

on Saturday.

602

00:
50:50,281 -- 00:50:52,784

They got two first rounders

that tear the cover off the ball.

603

00:
50:53,408 -- 00:50:56,578

- What inning should I show up for?

- What?

604

00:
50:57,830 -- 00:51:00,083

I should probably get there

pretty early, right?

605

00:
51:06,382 -- 00:51:08,259

Hey, man, what's that supposed

to mean?

606

00:
51:09,134 -- 00:51:11,845

I'm just trying to figure out

what inning you'll self-destruct.

607

00:
51:11,845 -- 00:51:13,847

I want to be there for that.

608

00:
51:14,305 -- 00:51:15,848

Why aren't you behind me?

609

00:
51:17,016 -- 00:51:20,520

I'm behind you. Everyone is

behind you, except you.

610

00:
51:22,438 -- 00:51:24,148

Just because you didn't have

what it takes...

611

00:
51:24,233 -- 00:51:28,237

I didn't have it!

I never had it, but you do.

612

00:
51:28,779 -- 00:51:32,408

You got a bag full of talent

and a head full of crap.

613

00:
51:32,908 -- 00:51:35,703

Ever since Mom died,

you think the world owes you something.

614

00:
51:35,787 -- 00:51:38,999

Bullshit! You've been given this gift.

615

00:
51:38,915 -- 00:51:40,417

You just piss it away.

616

00:
51:45,129 -- 00:51:46,839

I'm tired of this sh*t.

617

00:
51:59,312 -- 00:52:00,855

- Hi.

- Hey.

618

00:
52:03,440 -- 00:52:04,941

I'm sorry it's so late.

619

00:
52:06,068 -- 00:52:08,237

I just really needed to see you.

620

00:
52:09,405 -- 00:52:12,074

I told you I couldn't see

you tonight.

621

00:
52:12,157 -- 00:52:15,660

I know. I got this fight with my brother

and I'm just feeling a little spun.

622

00:
52:16,704 -- 00:52:19,540

Hey. I'm Chris Hunt.

623

00:
52:19,415 -- 00:52:20,333

Tenley!

624

00:
52:21,666 -- 00:52:22,709

I am...

625

00:
52:22,793 -- 00:52:26,505

Ryan, the gardener's son.

Why are you here at this time of night?

626

00:
52:26,589 -- 00:52:28,549

It's late. My dad had asked me to...

627

00:
52:28,592 -- 00:52:30,218

Come in, have a beer.

628

00:
52:31,135 -- 00:52:33,095

- You know my daughter Tenley, I believe.

- Yes, sir.

629

00:
52:39,269 -- 00:52:42,272

So Ryan, you were about to

tell us why you stopped by.

630

00:
52:45,817 -- 00:52:49,196

My dad asked me

to check on the hydrangeas.

631

00:
52:50,988 -- 00:52:53,240

He was worried

that they weren't blooming.

632

00:
52:54,368 -- 00:52:56,703

So you work for Rand?

633

00:
52:57,163 -- 00:53:00,583

Ryan and his father

do splendid landscaping.

634

00:
53:04,420 -- 00:53:06,172

I cut the grass.

635

00:
53:07,924 -- 00:53:10,468

I really have to go.

Thank you.

636

00:
53:11,802 -- 00:53:13,053

I'll see him out.

637

00:
53:18,558 -- 00:53:20,060

Son of a b*tch!

638

00:
53:21,229 -- 00:53:23,564

What the f*** was I thinking?

This is crazy!

639

00:
53:23,898 -- 00:53:25,733

I'm about to pitch

the biggest game of my life.

640

00:
53:26,150 -- 00:53:28,569

- I know you are.

And you're going to be great.

- Bullshit!

641

00:
53:28,945 -- 00:53:31,906

His name is Chris Hunt. We decided

not to see each other this summer.

642

00:
53:31,990 -- 00:53:34,701

My father invited him

to play golf without asking me.

643

00:
53:34,785 -- 00:53:38,998

Really? lf you would be asked, would you say

Ryan would love to play croquet tennis...

644

00:
53:38,955 -- 00:53:41,624

or maybe have martinis at the
