Hi. What do you want?

I'm really sorry. I really need to talk to you.

It's late.

I got into Brown today. Full academic scholarship.

Jonnie, that's great! I'm so proud of you. What? What's wrong?

Kilmer's threatening to **** up my scholarship if I don't play by his rules tomorrow.

Then quit.

Can't.

Then play.

You don't understand.

It's just a football game.

No, it's not. If it was just football I'd play. I love football when it's pure, but this...This isn't pure.

You're right. I don't understand.

If I play for Kilmer tomorrow and we win, he wins. Everyone in West Canaan will go on believing he's the best coach that ever lived. Yeah. What about the next team he coaches? And the one after that? What if my little brother ends up playing for him? I would be buying into everything that's wrong with this town.

You want some cheese with that whine?

What?

You're a whiner. Why don't you just step up and play the hero?

A hero?

Come on, Mox. You're a football guy. You're gonna tell me you don't know about heroes?

Yeah, but heroes win. What if I lose?
