  • [boy] Big win, Ilo.

  • Do you realize that there's not one picture

  • of us on your Instagram?

  • Do you want an online relationship or one in real life?

  • [Farrah] I knew that prick was using Hurley,

  • and I did nothing to stop it.

  • Would you want to hang out sometime?

  • -That sounds good. -Great.

  • You're goin' on a date with Ilo's sister.

  • How'd you finagle that?

  • I talked about things we had in common.

  • -Like anxiety stuff? -Some.

  • You're under arrest.

  • I had nothing to gain from getting Hook arrested.

  • You already made a play at his share of the snack bar business.

  • I'm done with all of it. Alcohol, everything.

  • -She's your hacker? -Don't call me a hacker.

  • I'm just a chick with a pink laptop.

  • There is a whole e-mail chain

  • between your mother and someone named Cerberus.

  • This whole back-and-forth is to track down The Crotch.

  • [Farrah] I hate when people tell me to enjoy these years

  • because they're gonna be the best ones of my life.

  • How could this possibly be the best time of our lives?

  • The pressure on us is absolutely insane.

  • Our parents, our teachers and coaches, our friends?

  • It's piling on top of us from every angle.

  • It's a wonder more of us don't crack under the pressure.

  • You look like a crazy person. What's with your smile?

  • Oh, wait till you see. It's so stupid.

  • I don't want to spoil it.

  • Okay, well, I mean, I do love stupid.

  • Ho ho, this one is beyond stupid.

  • [all chattering and laughing]

  • Shit.

  • - [mic feedback] - [theme song]

  • In a manner of speaking

  • ♪ I don't think we'll be speaking at all

  • [Farrah] What kind of idiot puts his jersey number

  • -on his graffiti? -Ilo.

  • I mean, that doesn't add up.

  • Why would Ilo risk getting suspended,

  • and not only missing a bunch of games,

  • but missing the game against Mountain View?

  • Because karma equals... bitch.

  • Okay, let's maybe not burn him at the stake so quickly, okay?

  • You were into what he was throwing you.

  • Otherwise, you wouldn't be so angry about it.

  • I'm just saying, Ilo's going All-State,

  • and the game this week is for counties.

  • Why screw with that?

  • [school bell rings]

  • [Farrah] How come those other two morons

  • didn't paint their numbers up there?

  • Because Ilo thinks he's the man.

  • Talked to Big Al,

  • and he can for sure only make out your two cohorts.

  • They weren't co-anythings. I'm the one who painted it.

  • Then you're even more lucky you got me, right?

  • Remember that when you go big-time.

  • -What about the other guys? -Gus is your boy, right?

  • Yeah. He'll have your back.

  • Look, put that behind you.

  • Need you to focus on Mountain View tonight, okay?

  • [Ilo] Yeah, but I don't think it's fair that I'm getting off,

  • and they're not.

  • [scoffs] Wait, the star football player gets off?

  • This is all kinds of wrong,

  • and it's gonna piss a lot of people off.

  • Well, for every one of them, there's two more who want to see

  • Ilo win a county championship game.

  • Meanwhile, those two lunch bags get screwed

  • 'cause they're backups.

  • This is a big steaming pile of entitlement bullshit.

  • [marching drums play]

  • [Plain Jane] So how long's the suspension?

  • [Jayne] Two weeks.

  • Apparently Big Al wasn't sure Ilo was there.

  • [Hurley] He was there.

  • [Farrah] Well, there or not, Gus took the fall.

  • He said he did it and painted Ilo's number as a joke.

  • I say we find Big Al, and we get him to admit

  • on tape that the prick-face did it.

  • And then we expose the audio to The Crotch.

  • It's a little revenge-y.

  • Well, the Crotch isn't posting anything.

  • At least I want to do something.

  • [Plain Jane] If Ilo really was there,

  • Gus is a good friend for covering for him.

  • Yeah, and Ilo is a shit friend to Gus.

  • I would never let one of you guys take the fall for me.

  • Look, I get that you hate him for whatever happened

  • between you two, but this can't actually surprise you.

  • What?

  • I mean, some people just get special benefits--

  • you know, actors, millionaires, athletes.

  • It's just the way the world works.

  • Said the girl with entitlement tits.

  • -Okay, that escalated quickly. -[Hurley] You know what?

  • Maybe I am being a little revenge-y. Wanna know why?

  • Because every guy that I think is gonna be cool to me

  • ends up being a piece of shit, and then, suddenly,

  • Ilo comes along, and I'm in this secret thing with this guy

  • that half the school is in love with.

  • -You don't-- -Only to find out

  • that in the end, he's just using me to get to Farrah.

  • So, yeah,

  • maybe Ilo's entitlement

  • pisses me off a little bit more than you.

  • I didn't know all that stuff.

  • Should we do something?

  • No. Let's let her go.

  • It's too bad you lost two players today.

  • Who cares about Gus?

  • He's just the backup kicker, right?

  • -It is what it is. -Is it?

  • Oh, 'cause I remember you showed up to school

  • on the first day of third grade wearing a button-down and a tie.

  • God, you remember that, don't you, Sully?

  • Oh, and then Gus ran to his cubby to grab you a T-shirt

  • so that you wouldn't look like a total dork.

  • And didn't he quit soccer when he was the starter

  • so that he could be the backup field-goal kicker

  • -because you asked him to? -You done yet?

  • I can't imagine a suspension looking so good

  • on Gus' college app, either.

  • [Hurley chuckles]

  • Bye.

  • [marching drums play]

  • Punk.

  • Where are your balls?

  • They're nestled up close to my body.

  • You can't see them from street level.

  • Post something already.

  • You can't let Cerberus shut down The Crotch.

  • -I have nothing to say. -Really?

  • There's a football scandal with a possible cover-up

  • involving a giant phallic symbol.

  • Sack up.

  • I have to go to Home Ec.

  • You pretty much have one power at this school.

  • Use it. Protect it. Just don't do nothing with it.

  • Look, I need you to be the guy behind it.

  • It's kind of our thing.

  • I'm gonna e-mail Cerberus.

  • Hey, Jane.

  • -Oh, hi. -I'm so glad we ran into you.

  • I wanted to float something by you.

  • Float away.

  • How would you feel about reopening

  • the other half of the snack bar?

  • I assume you mean Hook's half.

  • He gave up the business on his own.

  • -We had nothing to do with it. -You're in on this, too?

  • -Peripherally. -Okay, why?

  • I don't want to work nights all summer

  • at some crappy barista job just to make spending cash.

  • This is a faster and way more effective use of resources.

  • And the me of it all?

  • I watched your boyfriend sell the bottles.

  • -I just don't know-- -How he got what goes in them.

  • -That's the me of it all. -Well, look, maybe you could talk to him,

  • and he could hook us up with his supplier.

  • -He's gonna say no flat-out. -I don't think he will.

  • Not with the deal we're offering him.

  • Yeah, I heard about your last deal.

  • He would be a silent partner.

  • Actually, more than silent. He would be totally invisible.

  • -Like me. -It's all reward, no risk.

  • You get him to hook us up with his guy,

  • and he gets a dollar per sale.

  • I'm not sure that'll be enough.

  • For doing nothing? Ask him.

  • And you can volunteer in the legit side

  • of the snack shop with me.

  • That way you know how much money's coming in.

  • [Grace] I know one thing about your boyfriend,

  • and he needs money for college more than any of us.

  • All I ask is that you at least call him and offer him the deal.

  • And when you mix sulfur with a metal like aluminum,

  • we get an interesting chemical reaction.

  • [students groaning]

  • [coughing]

  • Hey, ocho-cero, stink don't bother you?

  • What?

  • It literally smells like we're inside an asshole.

  • I spoke to both Gus and Cal last night,

  • and neither of them is giving an inch.

  • I can't believe Ilo is getting away with this crap.

  • -[scoffs] Farrah? -I'm sorry.

  • I just don't think Ilo's getting away with anything.

  • What do you mean?

  • You don't actually believe him now, do you?

  • No, I believe that he painted it.

  • I just don't think he did it for shits and giggles.

  • [cell phones buzz and chime]

  • Oh, look, The Crotch finally woke up.

  • Maybe they know something.

  • Colin Cowher and Hannah Hampton new couple alert?

  • Why are these two nobodies dating

  • more important to The Crotch than Ilo's scandal?

  • I have to go.

  • Farrah, what--

  • [Farrah] It's just a warning shot.

  • Aimed right at me.

  • I should have known when we e-mailed that psycho,

  • he'd be able to hack into The Crotch.

  • What did the e-mail say? Were there threats in it?

  • No, not really.

  • I mean, barely.

  • How did they hack in?

  • I'm not a tech pro, okay?

  • I knew just enough to stay hidden until now.

  • Hannah's probably freaking out.

  • She can't handle people looking at her.

  • Now everybody is.

  • Look, I know that you feel bad for her,

  • but we have to focus on a solution,

  • not the damage that we can't control.

  • I should've never agreed to take over The Crotch.

  • I mean, what did I think I was gonna get out of it?

  • Cowher, there is no turning back now.

  • We are in this. Hey, look at me.

  • I need you here, okay?

  • Okay. Okay.

  • Cerberus is obviously someone in this high school.

  • We just have to figure out who it is.

  • Is that all?

  • This guy has tech skills that are way beyond mine.

  • Then maybe we need to bring someone on board

  • who can match Cerberus.

  • If we go to Y with this, there is no turning back.

  • We will be completely exposing ourselves to her.

  • Do we have any other choice?

  • -Dude. -But I did it, and I don't want you

  • to take the fall for me, all right, Gus?

  • Look, tomorrow I'm going into the principal

  • and insisting that I was the guy who painted it.

  • Don't you dare. This game doesn't mean jack-shit to me.

  • -But it's important to the whole school. -Man, forget the school.

  • We both know it's even more important for you.

  • What, the recruiters? I could care less about 'em.

  • You know people think my getting off is just athletic privilege.

  • So screw 'em. Is it privilege that you're running around

  • in 100-degree heat with a parachute wrapped around your waist?

  • I know, man, but you're not listening to me. I'm trying to tell--

  • I'm suspended either way, so don't make me

  • taking the fall for your dumb ass be for nothing.

  • You really want to pay me back?

  • Have a beast game against Mountain View.

  • All right, man. Come on.

  • The real waters go on the left,

  • and the special waters go on the right.

  • I know, I watched Hook for weeks.

  • The question is how do we get the stuff

  • to put into the special waters?

  • We'll get to that. Now here's what I say we do.

  • -We? -Hook and I made a side deal.

  • Did not see that coming.

  • [Plain Jane] When Hook mixed the drinks,

  • he'd fill it with vodka to the label right here.

  • I say we fill it an inch under.

  • That increases both supply

  • and, if you think about it, also demand.

  • But won't people notice

  • it's taking them longer to get buzzed?

  • Who cares? They have no other choice.

  • This is a no-competition business.

  • It's actually genius.

  • Now, how much cash do you have?

  • -300 bucks. -I'll text Hook,

  • and he'll have his guys meet you in the parking lot.

  • Yes.

  • Hey. What are you doing here?

  • I-- I was gonna run the bleachers.

  • -In wedges? -Yeah, I was gonna change.

  • Why didn't you text me?

  • I would've waited and ran with you.

  • Oh, I'm sorry. I totally should have.

  • Wow, what's up with team polo shirts?

  • Recruiters.

  • Big-time ones, too. Pac 12.

  • Oh, they must be here to see Ilo.

  • [scoffs] No wonder he had to play this week.

  • -How you doing? -Good, Ilo.

  • [camera clicking]

  • I have no idea why we're news.

  • I know.

  • I feel like people are looking at me, too.

  • There's nothing we can do about it now.

  • But you know how the school is, okay?

  • Something else will come up,

  • and no one will even think about us anymore.

  • Hey, uh, before you go,

  • did your brother say anything about us?

  • Forget it.

  • Okay. Bye.

  • I wasn't showing you the Ilo photo because of Hannah.

  • She's in an anxiety spiral.

  • I can already feel her pulling away.

  • Do you realize Hannah's the first girl to show me

  • an iota of interest since Sloane Davis rated me

  • a six out of ten in the third grade?

  • A six means interest to you?

  • I will take what I can get.

  • Look, if Hannah wants to be with someone

  • who is clearly more than a six,

  • she's gonna have to learn how to overcome the little things,

  • I mean, even if they don't seem that little to her right now.

  • Yeah, I know.

  • Thanks for saying I'm more than a six, by the way.

  • I appreciate the lie.

  • [door opens]

  • Well, the principal's son is The Crotch.

  • That is so rad.

  • Which is exactly why this has to stay between us,

  • -for obvious reasons. -My family's military.

  • It's in my blood to keep secrets under intense pressure.

  • Who knew you were such a badass?

  • Badasses in my world are always more than a six.

  • Wait, does Hurley know about all this?

  • No, she can't know.

  • Because of the Ilo election stuff.

  • You knew he was seeing Stacey before it was posted.

  • Yes, which is why we pivoted to Grace.

  • -So any news about Cerberus? -Okay, first of all,

  • it took a ton of deep diving

  • with some pretty high-grade military software--

  • This sounds highly sensitive.

  • Perhaps the discussion should take place in the Chamber.

  • What's the Chamber?

  • Nothing, he's kidding.

  • Moving on, bottom-line it.

  • I made contact with Cerberus.

  • -Seriously? -Yep.

  • Did you get us a meeting with him?

  • Sort of.

  • [marching drums play]

  • Ooh, keys. Low-tech, but effective.

  • So I don't understand.

  • Why have you never tried to find The Crotch before?

  • Because I never cared who it was.

  • The Crotch has always been good to me.

  • You know, besides those pervy yoga pics you put up.

  • People send photos anonymously.

  • Although knowing Farrah's involved does explain a lot

  • about what's been going on around here.

  • Where exactly are we going?

  • Greek Mythology, Homer.

  • -What the hell? -This guy's good.

  • [distorted male voice] Welcome. Thanks for coming.

  • -So you're Cerberus. -I am.

  • Why'd you post that thing about me and Hannah?

  • -That was really uncool. -You threatened me.

  • And I don't like being threatened.

  • Yet you're okay when you're doing the threatening.

  • Thick irony, isn't it?

  • So what do you want from us?

  • I want in on The Crotch officially.

  • Not happening.

  • You realize I can just keep posting if I want.

  • So then why don't you?

  • I mean, you clearly have the skill to make a hostile takeover.

  • There's more to it than that.

  • Now please ask the hot one to stop tracking me.

  • What are you talking about?

  • I'm not stupid. We're done here.

  • Well, he called Y "the hot one," so we know he's a dude.

  • You get anything?

  • Give me a little time with what I have.

  • I think I can get him.

  • Wait, wait, whose cell phone is that?

  • Screensaver's a picture of you.

  • This is my mother's phone.

  • Yeah, there's a picture of you at the beach.

  • -And not a hair on that body, huh? -Okay, can I--

  • Listen, that was taken a couple years ago.

  • All right. [laughs]

  • [music playing]

  • Everybody's starting a shakedown, baby

  • Your new partners want to talk to you.

  • -What? -Grace and Stacey?

  • -Partners in what? -Hook's former business.

  • It's cool with me that you're part of the whole Gracey deal.

  • How did you know?

  • Hook called me to make sure that I was okay with it,

  • you know, before he jumped into bed with them.

  • I'm sorry, now that I hear it,

  • I-- I know I should've told you myself.

  • It's just I wasn't even sure if I wanted to help them at first.

  • It's cool with me. Don't even think twice about it.

  • Are you sure? Because I wouldn't want any of you to think

  • that I was, like, I don't know, leaving you all for them.

  • [laughs] Oh, I don't think any of us thought that.

  • If you have to go talk to them, go.

  • We'll wait for you.

  • Make out

  • Break

  • Break

  • Break

  • Okay, there's no way you're cool with that.

  • I know Grace wants to be me,

  • but stealing my friends is a bit much.

  • Oh, hey, look, Ilo Hampton.

  • Hope you impressed those recruiters.

  • Oh, my God.

  • Hey, Hannah. May I?

  • Yeah.

  • Wow, it's pretty exciting that the recruiters

  • are coming to the game tomorrow, huh?

  • Ilo must be stoked on it.

  • Have the colleges done the home visits yet?

  • Oregon came last night.

  • Oregon.

  • Wow, Ilo's been wearing their gear since he was a kid.

  • Because my dad went there.

  • It's his dream that Ilo plays there.

  • Well, then it's probably good that Ilo

  • did not spray-paint that crotch rocket with Gus.

  • Your dad probably would've been pretty pissed

  • -if he couldn't play the game. -You have no idea.

  • Hmm.

  • Well, I'll wish him good luck.

  • Um, by the way, I saw that post about you and Cowher.

  • His locker's next to mine. He's a really good kid.

  • I'll catch you later.

  • What was that about?

  • It had nothing to do with you.

  • You've never said a word to Hannah in your entire life,

  • and I'm supposed to believe that had nothing to do with me?

  • Actually, yes.

  • You do realize not everything's about you, Cowher.

  • What could it possibly have been about?

  • Ilo.

  • A.K.A., not you.

  • Now I know what's going on with him.

  • [whistle blows]

  • [marching drums playing]

  • You were trying to get suspended.

  • You don't want to play tomorrow. I know why, too.

  • Ilo!

  • [breathing heavily]

  • What is it that you think you know?

  • For one, that you're already aware of the fact

  • that you should not be on this football field tomorrow.

  • -And why's that? -Because you have a concussion.

  • Maybe a few concussions. You're not sure how many.

  • Come on.

  • It's why you spray-painted your number on the wall.

  • I mean, you've watched ESPN. You've read up on it.

  • And you know how hard you've been hit.

  • It's probably why you couldn't smell

  • anything in the chem lab on Tuesday.

  • What does it matter to you? It's not your head.

  • Look, why don't you just, I don't know,

  • fake an injury or something, pretend you pulled a hamstring?

  • My father would get an MRI on my injury in two seconds,

  • and I'd be right back on this field.

  • And it's not just about him, it's about my coach

  • and the rest of the guys on this field.

  • Look, Farrah, you don't get football culture.

  • You play through the pain. I can't fake an injury.

  • Then why not tell them about your head?

  • Recruiters aren't taking a kid with a concussion history.

  • It's too controversial right now.

  • But they wouldn't think twice about taking a kid

  • who gets in trouble for a little vandalism.

  • Yeah, trouble's easy. Brain injury, not so easy.

  • So what was your plan?

  • I was trying to get suspended to avoid getting hit for a few weeks.

  • You know, see if the symptoms subside,

  • but I guess now, I'll just have to try to avoid taking any hard hits.

  • As a wide receiver? Genius move.

  • What else do you want me to say, Farrah?

  • I don't see any other choice.

  • [sighs]

  • Boy, Hurley is gonna love me for this one.

  • Why's that?

  • Because I'm gonna get you suspended.

  • But if I get you out of this, I need you to go see a doctor.

  • And a real one, not Web MD or some shit.

  • Then once you know what's going on up there,

  • you can tell or not tell whoever you want, okay?

  • Thanks.

  • You got it.

  • Let's go, guys, come on, huddle up!

  • All right.

  • Okay, a little higher. Okay, now laugh a little harder.

  • [laughing]

  • -Great. God. -Gus, come on.

  • -That'll do. -Gus, come on, come on.

  • Perfect, yes, that'll do.

  • All right! Thanks, man.

  • Okay, well, I will send this to Farrah,

  • and, hopefully, get you suspended.

  • Thanks for this.

  • You know, I appreciate it, given how I treated you.

  • Look, somewhere inside me, I knew what you were doing,

  • but I didn't want to admit it.

  • That doesn't mean that I forgive you.

  • But it also doesn't mean that I wish

  • to see your brain any dumber than it already is.

  • So I guess we both win.

  • You're a good friend.

  • Let's not get too crazy, okay?

  • [marching drums play]

  • Um, I'm having some problems--

  • Put your name on the sign-up sheet.

  • Great, I'll get back to you when I'm done with all the--

  • Hello, Cerberus.

  • Hot Jayne found me?

  • She's better than Mr. Robot.

  • What do you want, Dipankar?

  • -I want a piece of The Crotch. -You already took a piece.

  • Without Cowher.

  • He's the principal's son.

  • I've already seen him hold back to protect her.

  • So why do you want it?

  • The Crotch holds power. He's barely tapped into it.

  • Oh, so this is about power?

  • Well, you know, that dipshit also managed to parlay it

  • into a cute girlfriend, so, you know, there's that.

  • Mmm, see, I'm not buying that.

  • Or just maybe I'm just really bored of watching everyone

  • do nothing of interest around here.

  • Oh, you're one of those.

  • Those. You don't know me at all.

  • I think I might.

  • You're an Internet troll come to life,

  • and what's better than sitting in your room

  • getting people riled up on forums and comment sections?

  • Doing it to the people where you can see their reactions live.

  • -Am I close? -Not really.

  • What I don't understand

  • is why do you want to deal?

  • I mean, it seems like you've got everything figured out.

  • When the school board hired the company I work for

  • to track down The Crotch, it took me under, I don't know,

  • 20 minutes to find Cowher,

  • but instead of reporting him,

  • I started watching him, which led me

  • -to watching both of you. -Creepy.

  • Yeah, it's so cute how two locker-mates

  • ended up in this together.

  • And your point is?

  • Without information, The Crotch is just another blog.

  • You're the one with the connections.

  • You're the one pulling the strings.

  • You're the one with the social skills.

  • I don't care about making a deal with Cowher.

  • I wanna make a deal with you.

  • And what if I don't want to make a deal with you?

  • I'll expose both you and the principal's son.

  • Oh, and his mom will likely get fired,

  • 'cause we all know what happened

  • with that whole Hook Spygate debacle.

  • So, yeah, up to you.

  • Give me the rest of the day.

  • We'll figure this out.

  • But for now, we just need to play nice.

  • It's too much.

  • I don't want to do it anymore.

  • I'll just hand the drive over.

  • -Call it a year. -You can't do that.

  • Just status-quo it until we figure out

  • -our next move, please. -Why?

  • Because you and I both know that The Crotch

  • still has power, and we want to keep it.

  • What power?

  • You really need to be reminded of it?

  • Fine. Post this photo.

  • It may actually save Ilo's life.

  • Wow, he actually was there.

  • How is it going to save his life?

  • -Just put it on blast. -[cell phone chimes]

  • [school bell rings]

  • Oh, power trio. Cute.

  • -Be nice, Farrah. -What? That was nice.

  • "Power trio" is a compliment.

  • [cell phones chime]

  • "Privilege can't deny proof."

  • And, look, a photo of Ilo holding a spray can.

  • Oh, too bad for him.

  • -Good job. -Good job to you, too.

  • [Farrah] The pressure on us must be insane

  • to go through with some of the things we do.

  • You took a damn picture?

  • What kind of brainless moron are you?

  • I can't protect you now. You're getting suspended.

  • -♪ It's time to be brave ♪ -Sorry, coach.

  • Do what it takes
