Tami is on the phone with someone at Burleson College, trying to explain that Julie was just overwhelmed, but doesn't want to lose all her work from the semester. Julie comes out looking for a dad-prepared "tofu scramble." Tami is curt with her, saying that there's cereal for her. Julie pushes it a bit, "Great. Cereal." When Tami asks what she's doing today, all she can come up with is "answering a few emails and doing some stuff." So Tami tells her that she needs to take Grace to school and pick her up. Julie starts complaining, but Tami cuts her off, telling her that if she's going to be living there, she has to help out, and also figure out how to pay her father back for the car. Tami gives her ten minutes to leave with Gracie, and Julie slumps and mopes.
Lions practice. The kids are distracted, Coach calls them to huddle up. He tells them that he knows they are thinking about the website. He tells them that the release of that information is criminal and whoever did it will be punished. Vince says it doesn't matter who did it, the information is out there now. Coach tells him that he knows they are all pissed, he's pissed, too. But that whoever did it did it to blind them with anger and he's asking them to not let that happen. He asks the kids to focus. Then: "Friday: what do you say we punish?" The kids murmur in retribution-y excitement. They break up and Coach asks Vince for a word. Vince, through his helmet, asks Coach if he really thinks that any colleges are going to want Vince after this. This is seriously like the most naive statement ever. Coach tells him the records won't matter, but Vince thinks that now all anyone will ever see in him is "a thug." After School Special out!
Billy has Luke lifting a car fender in his back yard, yelling at him that "real men don't use weights." Becky comes out of the house with Stevie on her hip. Luke looks at her and smiles big: "Hey Becky. You're looking good." She goes back in and Billy is like "Really? That's your game?" Luke tells Billy that Mindy told him to go for it. Billy reminds him that "my wife is a woman, dumb ass. She doesn't understand how men work." He says that the first rule is that if you like a chick, you have to ignore them. Then he asks Luke if he knows how he got Mindy. Luke is willing to hear the story, and so Billy tells him all about how he went into The Landing Strip a bunch of times and got a lap dance from every girl EXCEPT Mindy. And that by doing so, he had Mindy BEGGING him to let her take him into the "Champagne Room." But Luke is barely able to keep up with the story because he's way back at "Ms. Riggins works at The Landing Strip?!" Billy tells Luke that he's got to let the woman know that "they can't get this. This doesn't come for free. They gotta earn...THIS" vaguely and off-camera gesturing at his crotch. Luke shifts his glance from face to crotch, and basically this is a great scene. Luke closes it down by asking, with a grin, whether "Ms. Riggins" still works at The Landing Strip. Billy sends him back to his fender benches.
