Your riding is flawless.
Mm.
You mean for a girl?
Uh, no.
Um…
It's just that's the usual response I'll get. Even from other riders.
-Especially from other riders. -What?
You're like better than any guy I know.
Watching you is like watching a dance.
It's beautiful.
You like dancing?
Uh… what?
No. I'm a terrible dancer.
We'll see.
-Uncle Richard! -Good morning!
- Hi! - Hi!
Oh, I missed you.
What are you doing here?
Uh, I'm meeting with Katherine and George later,
so I thought I'd get here early so I could see you.
Great. I'm just getting breakfast started.
Do you want some coffee?
Sure. That'd be great.
Danny.
Danny, wake up!
Hey, wake up!
What is wrong with you?
Come on. You've been avoiding me for days. Will you just tell me already?
- What's that about? - Tell you what?
Come on, Danny. I saw you making out with Erin outside of Monty's.
- You're hooking up with Erin? - No. It's not like that.
-Why wouldn't you tell me? -I just, uh…
Danny, good for you.
-What? -I like Erin.
Erin, that girl from Thanksgiving?
So, you're dating?
Erin's Cole's ex. Isn't that kind of messed up?
Okay, guys, can we just shut up?
I made breakfast.
Cereal and milk isn't really "making" breakfast, Jackie.
- Dude, that's not helpful. - Dude.
Yeah, when's the last time you made breakfast?
What?
Cole made me swear not to say anything.
I get it.
He wanted it to come from you. I'm so sorry. I feel terrible.
It's okay.
You did the right thing.
He's just hurt, Danny.
You're more than his twin brother. You're his best friend.
I've never kept anything from Cole before.
Just talk to him, okay?
Paige is the current VP, so unless someone steps up to run against her,
she gets to just become junior class president
because Noelle's family moved away.
Maybe someone will.
Who'd be brave enough to run against the she-devil?
I'm sorry, that is not my president.
Wait.
Jackie, you should run.
No.
-Why? -Because I have too much going on already.
But you'd be perfect. You're so detail-oriented,
and you actually care about everything. You already dress like a president.
Come on. I could be your campaign manager.
Honestly, I would love to be class president. But--
But what?
Please go on. Don't let me interrupt your conversation.
Too late.
You really think people would vote for you?
I've been here my entire life,
and what, you just showed up, like, a minute ago?
And then you "saved" some dance.
You're gonna have some cheap decorations and a crappy DJ?
Sorry, Paige, but we're not having a DJ.
We're actually having a band.
A really great band, so be sure to get your tickets early.
And don't worry. I'm not running against you.
Hmm.
Band! Oh, wow!
When did we book a band?
We haven't.
Yet.
I'm out! I'm out!
Wait, look out!
Okay, but, Jackie, there's no money left and no time.
We'd never find a band.
-The dance is next week. -Never say never.
I've been working on a really killer playlist.
I love that, Grace, but can we at least try to
find a band?
Alex?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
She's bright yellow. How do you miss that?
Inquiries, concerns, complaints.
These calls are all over the place.
One guy wanted to know
how the new traffic pattern would affect his grain delivery.
-Well, people need their grain. -George, I'm gonna stop you right there.
I think we're both surprised at how much pushback there's been.
You can't get in your heads about this.
And you definitely can't let a few squeaky wheels hold up the permits.
Okay, well, what would you suggest?
I invite the head of Building and Safety out for a few rounds of golf.
He controls the permits in town. Suddenly, boom.
All our problems go away.
Do you mean bribe him?
No.
I… I mean, I ease his concerns
so that when we do apply for the permits, squeaky wheels aren't so loud anymore.
We ask to skip the public hearing, expedite the entire process.
-He definitely means bribe him. -Yeah.
This is how we do it in New York all the time.
But we are not in New York.
These are our neighbors and friends. It's not some huge corporation
with a bunch of faceless people.
We have to do this the Silver Falls way.
-What way is that? -We actually talk to people.
There are thousands of dollars on the line here!
Okay, now I need to stop you, Richard.
- Okay-- - Okay, you know what?
Richard, we know this town.
And we know these people.
If they feel like we're going rogue, there's gonna be hell to pay.
You have to trust us.
Cole Walter steps up to the line
with the game hanging in the balance.
Can he break through this tough Aurelita defense
that has been stopping the Bighorns all day?
Okay, guys, keep your eyes on Cole.
- Look, see? - Intercepted! Aurelita wins!
That's disappointing for the Bighorns and especially for Cole.
This is what we're up against Friday night, gentlemen.
Aurelita has been our biggest rival for the past decade,
and they still have the number one secondary in the conference.
Even the great Cole Walter couldn't beat Aurelita.
We need to play mistake-free football. Got it?
If you got it, give me two.
Every move we make,
every pass we throw has to have precision, direction, force.
We got one shot to get it right. We are not gonna mess it up.
If you got it, give me two!
-Get up. Get ready. Let's go. -Let's go, boys.
All right, boys. Come on now.
Cole, you… you okay?
That must've been tough to watch.
That's how we learn, right? From other people's mistakes.
-Yeah. -All right.
This is from the last four games against Aurelita.
I thought it could be a cool pictorial piece.
Like a visual storytelling of the rivalry between both schools.
Zach, these are amazing.
You think so? You don't have to be nice.
I'm not being nice.
I… I think you have a gift
for capturing the real essence of things.
I mean, you… you see moments and tiny details
that other people just miss.
Like with you?
What?
You never told me what you thought about those pictures I took of you.
Did I capture you?
The real you?
Hey, Skylar. I'm glad you're here.
Zach was pitching me on this pictorial piece
for the rivalry with Aurelita.
It's just an idea I had.
Tell the rivalry story through pictures.
- I thought it could be different. - Different isn't always better.
Right. Yeah, no, I just… I just thought you could consider it.
I'll think about it.
Okay.
Ready! Zebra, zebra! Zebra, zebra!
Ready! Down, set, hut!
- Over here! - Whoo!
Come on!
Damn it!
Damn it, Dylan!
Why don't you just hand it to the other team?
Coach, I can fix this.
I know what's wrong. I see it.
We got two days.
Work with him.
My bad, guys. Run again.
Yeah?
Oh, I was looking for Nathan. I thought you were out training.
Oh, uh… Blake had her own thing this afternoon.
Oh my God. Alex.
Your face.
Oh, do you guys want me to go?
-No! -No!
-No, I was looking for you. -Oh.
And I told Mom I'd help with dinner tonight, so…
So, what's up?
I need to find a band to play at the dance.
You made that much at the pop-up you could hire a band?
Not exactly.
Not exactly?
I have a plan. Just tell me if there's anywhere around here
I could find a cool band.
Jackie Howard, you have so come to the right person.
Okay, I'm gonna give you some very different options.
-And then you can decide. -Okay.
I've been looking for you.
Oh, yeah?
I'm not that hard to find.
I should've told you about me and Erin.
And why didn't you?
Because.
I…
Forget it.
Because I was scared.
Okay?
Like, it's Erin, you know?
And I… I didn't want it to go away.
And I know that's stupid, but I'm… I'm stupid about her.
I've never felt like this about a girl before.
And I know you know what that's like.
Maybe.
Plus she happens to be your ex-girlfriend, so there's that whole bag of awkward.
We were over way before it ended.
I'm sorry you saw us outside Monty's.
Yeah.
Did not need to know you were such a good kisser.
Okay, that is so wrong on so many levels.
So, we're good?
You're my twin.
We're always gonna be good.
You got any advice?
Yeah.
Do the exact opposite of what I did.
Does your mom know you stole her laundry basket?
Well, not if you don't tell her.
Hey!
-Why am I here? -Good morning to you too.
Coach told me if I didn't show up to your house before school,
he's gonna bench me on Friday, which we both know is bullshit.
- Who's he gonna put in? Isaac? - I don't know.
-But I think a part of you is worried. -What makes you think that?
You're here.
Yeah, well, maybe if your dad was breathing down your neck
every two seconds, you'd be worried too.
Look, forget about your dad, man.
This is about you.
Man, forget this.
I can help you.
I know what you need.
All right, this is a team sport.
We're a team. This is my chance too, you know?
Your chance to what?
To win.
Okay then.
What do I need?
You're telegraphing your passes.
That's what's gonna bury you tomorrow night.
Here, throw me a pass.
See, you just… you did it right there.
-You looked right at me. -So?
You look at your receiver, you telegraph your throw.
Okay? And that'll work fine against most teams,
but not against Aurelita.
These guys, they don't follow your arm. They follow your eyes.
So what am I supposed to do? Look the other way?
Yeah, that's exactly what you should do.
No-look pass.
That's what you need to beat Aurelita.

So, I ran that heartworm test on the Bakers' dog,
and it came back negative, so they can restart the preventatives.
-Great. I'll give them a call. -Thanks.
Jamal?
Is this a mistake, or did Joanne Wagner cancel for today?
Um… yes, she canceled
and requested that her files be transferred to the vet in Lockwood.
So, if there's any live music to be found,
it's gonna be at one of these three venues.
Mm! Guys, I'm so excited!
The only time I get to leave Silver Falls is when I'm with my parents.
Girl, we know.
No way should Paige get to be our new class president.
Jackie, you should run.
Not gonna happen. I already tried.
Wait, you really would be good, Jackie.
With Student Council and track starting, my commitments to the Walters,
keeping my grades up, getting my driver's license,
I just don't like doing something I can't commit to 100%.
What?
Jackie, if I lived that way, I'd never try anything.
Okay. I mean, that sounds good to me.
There's, like, three venues.
- Oh, I can pick you up. What time? - Like, maybe 7:00?
Erin! Wait up.
Hey.
So…
Danny?
Yeah.
You deserve a great guy.
And to be honest,
I don't think there's anyone better than Danny.
I agree.
Do me one favor.
Don't break his heart.
I won't.
Cole.
I know tomorrow's game is a big deal for you.
And I just want you to know,
I'm rooting for you.
We all are.
Oh.
I didn't think they still made this cartridge.
The kids' sink was my sink when I was a kid.
Glad you have it.
Sure thing, George. Happy to help.
You going to the game tomorrow? Big rivalry?
Wouldn't miss it.
Is that my ranch?
For what it's worth, that's a community board.
I had to hang it up.
I sure as heck didn't sign it.
Appreciate that.
Who started this?
I know. I know. It's so late.
I let Jamal go early. And then, of course,
there was an emergency out at the Myers' farm,
so I had to race over there…
-What is it? -There's a petition against our ranch.
On the community boards at Dale's Hardware.
-A petition? -Yeah.
And it's got a bunch of signatures on it. And Bob and Joanne started it.
Oh. Well, that explains why she transferred vets this morning.
These people are supposed to be our friends.
I know.
Well, we're not those kind of people.
So I'm gonna go over there tomorrow morning, and I'm gonna talk to Joanne.
Face-to-face.
You can keep your hat on.
Katherine.
Hi, Jo.
I really do think we need to talk.
And I brought your favorite, hazelnut lattes.
Can I come in?
Now is really not a good time.
Okay. When do you think will be a good time?
I don't understand.
This is just getting ridiculous. It's just a conversation.
Thanks.
Hi, guys.
What's going on?
We decided to hire a lawyer. As a community.
-A what? Nope. -Katherine…
-No, thanks. Don't want to meet you. -Katherine, don't take this the wrong way.
-We want to know our rights. -Your rights against our home?
How else should I be taking it?
That ranch has been in George's family for generations,
and we are simply doing everything we can just to keep it in the family,
but nobody knows that because nobody's asked.
We could've just sold it to a developer.
How do you think that would've worked for you?
Oh, and another thing. That book you all picked for book club?
Helen dies in the end.
Have a great day.
So, the utility lines will start here and then head up over that ridge.
Good. Glad the placement all worked out.
Yeah.
Listen, George, about Will calling me…
Yeah, look, he was just doing what he thought was right, so I get it.
I don't want things to be weird between us.
Mm.
There's too much at stake.
Hey, Jackie's family now. Nothing's going to change that.
Hey, honey. How'd it go with Joanne?
You know that head of permits you were telling us about?
-Yeah. -You should dust off your old nine iron.
Turns out our friends hired a lawyer.
-A lawyer? -Mm-hmm.
Sounds like Silver Falls is more New York than you both thought.
Should I do short or longer?
Short.
You know, when my mom asked what we were doing
and why I needed the car, I told her ice cream.
-Ice cream? -Mm-hmm.
So now we have to get ice cream so I'm not technically lying.
-What do you think? -I think you look incredible.
Okay, let's go find a band.
And some ice cream.
- Come on. You have everything? - Mm-hmm.
All right, boys, butt kicks. Give me two.

We're going upstairs, Jackie.
Excuse me. Sorry. I like your leather.
-Not really the vibe we're going for? -Not really.
-Okay. -Okay.
Okay.
You know, you look real nice tonight.
Oh, uh, I just wore what you told me to wear.
You're terrible at taking compliments, you know that?
Thanks.
You look nice too.
Really nice.

It's game night!
Hey, boys, huddle up!
Hey, Gordon.
How's Dylan feeling about the game, huh? Cole says he's been working hard.
Guess we're about to find out just how hard he's been working.
It's the opening kickoff, and Silver Falls have won the toss.
And it's a good return here for the Bighorns.
All right, listen up. Cinnamon, 951 on 2, 951 on 2.

Hi. Um, I'm Jackie Howard.
Hi, Jackie Howard. Did you like the show?
I loved it. Loved the show.
I know you're busy, so I'll just get straight to the point.
I go to Silver Falls High School.
Um, this is a 21-and-over back here.
Oh, right. I used my sister's fake ID.
Anyway, we have our Fall Formal coming up,
and no, I don't have any money to pay you, but seriously,
if you performed, it would be the ultimate--
We don't do high school dances.
And we definitely don't do high school dances for free.
I figured you would say that,
which is why I think I can offer you something even better.
My very close family friend
is the booking agent for the Village Vanguard.
I'm sure you've heard of the Village Vanguard
on Fifth Avenue in New York City. It's where a ton of bands get discovered.
Anyway, you play our dance,
and I'll get you that introduction.
How were you supposed to know they played the Village Vanguard 15 times already?
I just feel so stupid.
He looked at me like I was just some stupid kid.
I promised there was gonna be a band at the dance.
You didn't promise anything to anyone, okay?
In the heat of a Paige-driven moment, you said there'd be a band,
and there's not. Who cares?
-Thank you. -For what?
For being such a great friend.
Okay, can I see that killer playlist of yours?
Yes! Okay, hold on.
Okay.
Grace, this is incredible.
Really? I scientifically crafted it to get people on the dance floor,
so it's like fast songs first, then a slow song,
and then powerhouse favorites.
I'm so sorry I didn't listen to you sooner.
Your playlist is perfect for the dance.
Oh, don't ever be sorry for getting me out of my house.
I mean, I think this is the best night I've had, like… maybe ever.
Ice cream!
We almost forgot the ice cream!
Okay.
- Okay. - Okay. Let's go!
And we can still catch the end of the game.
And that's a first down for the Bighorns at the 40-yard line.
Silver Falls is up by three with just two minutes remaining in the game.
Ready! Red 12!
Can-can!
Can-can! Ready, go! Hut!
Don't look! Don't look!
Oh!
Yeah!
Interception!
Touchdown, Aurelita!
Whoo! Whoo!
And the extra point is good.
Aurelita takes a 10-6 lead with time running down.
-Dylan, what the hell was that? -Sorry, I thought--
-No, I don't want to hear it. -Hey, give him a minute, would you?
He's got this. He's got this.
Get it together.
Man, I can't do this. I just can't.
Yes, you can.
Okay, you've got 'em right where you want 'em.
They're always gonna break on the ball. You can use it against them.
They think they know who you are or what you're gonna do next,
but the only person who gets to decide that is you.
You got a chance to rewrite the past.
I need you to win this game… for both of us.
Thanks, Coach.
And the Silver Falls offense
takes the field at the Aurelita 16-yard line.
With only eight seconds remaining and the Bighorns down by four,
the Bighorns need to score.
Listen up. Listen up. Hey, listen. This is the one. This is the one.
Indigo Flats, wide special. Indigo Flats, wide special on 101.
- Ready? - Break.
Ready. Red 12.
Let's go. Let's go.
Hey! Can-can!
Can-can! Can-can!
Ready, down, set!
Touchdown, Bighorns!
They've done it! They finally beat Aurelita!
Bighorns win! Bighorns win!
He did it!
Newsome! Newsome! Newsome! Newsome!
Yeah, I just parked that way.
- Bye. - Bye, Grace.
Good game, buddy.
Congratulations.
You just beat your biggest rival.
I didn't beat anyone.
It was your play. It was your idea.
But I wasn't on the field.
Dylan won, not me.
I thought that this would feel different, that it would feel good, but…
Never mind.
I get it.
Yeah, that hurt you're feeling,
it's just a reminder that this is all important to you.
And that's not a bad thing.

-Did you see what she was wearing? -I know, like, girl, not a fedora.
There's a rumor you're running against me.
So what if I was?
Last I checked, I do go to school here, and I'm a junior,
which are the only two qualifications I need.
She's not wrong.
You know, I wasn't gonna run against you until you convinced me I should.
Because our class actually deserves someone who cares.
And we all know that isn't you.
And there isn't gonna be a band at the dance.
I lied because I thought I had to prove you wrong.
But now I realize you'll do that yourself.
