Oh, Smash. You’re killing me. With the ghost of football stars past hanging around and asking Taylor for a job, it’s no wonder that our boy’s confidence is waivering, but damn. Convinced that he’s his family’s meal ticket and that homecoming is his one chance to impress the scout to end all scouts, Smash screws up big. He gets pulled out of the game and gives the newly sober Riggs the opportunity to shine. Riggs gets the game ball and emotionally reminds everyone that the heart of their team is Street.Meanwhile Street’s worried about the embrace he saw between Riggs and Lyla. Despite his rehab friends’ warning that the team will turn him into little more than a mascot if he shows up for homecoming, he decides to go, if only so he can keep an eye on his girlfriend and his best friend.
Tyra hangs out with Riggs’ brother, himself a former athletic star, and they make several thousand dollars throwing the big homecoming party. It’s got all the makings of an unholy alliance.
Saracen kind of asked Julie out! It was awkward and he almost took it back as soon as he said it and we never exactly got an answer, but still! Awesome!
Next week Smash’s downward spiral continues when he starts abusing steroids. Apparently he did not see that afterschool special with Ben Affleck all roided out. That’s his loss on several levels.
