At the Riggins Ranch, Tim fixes the toilet while simultaneously taking a hammer to Mindy's heart. When Tim asks where Billy is, Mindy is surprised that Tim doesn't know that he's at the shop working on a job. Mindy wonders if this is a big deal, you know how Billy's always working late now, and he seems tired and distracted and doesn't answer his phone. You know, that doesn't mean he's having an affair, does it? Tim looks at his sister-in-law and kindly says "Minds, what you're saying is not happening." I'm kind of a big fan of Tim Riggins' penchant for endearing nicknames (Minds, Fours). Mindy busts out that she doesn't even want to know if Billy's cheating on her; she feels like a total mess, stuck in that chair in that bathrobe.

Commercials. Coach lingers in a hallway cringing as he listens to Buddy try to convince the Spanish-language radio station manager to let them broadcast the Lions games. A younger man translates between the two of them, but things are getting lost in translation. The station manager thinks Buddy wants free time, Buddy insists that he's offering the station a new demographic: football! The station manager is like "Football? Football?! Futbol Norteamericano!" Somewhere in Dillon a lone vuvuzela bleats. Coach calls Buddy over and wonders whether all this is worth it, Buddy tells him to look at it like an investment. If they get on the radio, they get a voice, they can stop all the trash-talking and toilet-bowling. Coach is getting fed up waiting for these negotiations, but Buddy goes back to working his magic.
