Yeah, nice! Way to hustle! Good job. Good job.
Highland Rugby, One, Two
One, Two!
Beniamin, Adam, off the field, now!
-Way to stick with it. -How did you miss that?!
What are you guys doing? Get it together!
Okay, Roundy. Let's go! Let's go!
Hustle, hustle!
Get back in there.
Let's go!
A little rough on his kid, huh?
-What the heck was that, huh? -Go!
That's rugby, man.
-What? -You.. .
-Oh, no! -He spit in his face.
Let's go!
Come on, guys, let's go!
-Oh, no way, man! Come on! -You're out of the game.
Forget it! Forget it, man!
Dude, it's not worth it! Come on!
We'll have to take a blood sub.
l'm not sitting.
No. Sub him out.
Wait, wait, wait!
Way to go, Ricky.
That's your best hit of the day.
Let's go!
No blood. l'm ready.
We're good, yeah? He stays?
-He's good. -Okay. Let's go.
Come on! Come on!
Way to be Highland!
Hey, Coach?
Nice game.
Played a good game, guys.
And great kicks today.
They're idiots.
They won.
Great game.
Tough loss?
They didn't lose.
They rolled over and died.
They gave up, like scared little girls.
-No offense, son. -We tried.
What do you mean you tried?
You try, you sit.
This is about doing.
Coach!
Yeah.
Tried.
Your dad iust wants you to win, hon.
He wants to win. That has nothing to do with me.
Hey!
Hey, Rick!
Oh! Oh!
Oh, they are way too drunk to be in the water.
Somebody get them some wings.
Okay. All right. So anyway, it gets better,
because this coconut has iust got it hanging there on his face, right?
And this guy is huge, all right? Like Yeti big. He's big.
So, he wipes it. Wipes it off with his hand.
He wipes this loogie off with his hand.
And licks it.
And l swear it's thick enough to chew.
-Oh, Mark, that's disgusting! -Sick. l'm gonna barf.
Yeah, well...
All right!
Listen up! Hey! Listen to my mouth!
We present this oh-so-delectable trophy to the guy
who's gonna take us back to nationals next year, baby.
Yeah!
And, and! Sh, sh, sh!
And a complete massacre of Highland!
Rick, what are you doing?
Yeah! Whoo!
Come on, baby!
-l don't think l'm this drunk. -Yes, you are!
Yeah-hoo!
Tami, you okay?
Tami?
Tami!
Natalie Penning, do you have anything further to offer this court?
He's better than he seems on paper, Your Honor.
l iust hope you can see that.
Does the young man's father have anything to add?
He was unable to attend.
Then, we'll proceed. You may be seated.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Richard Seymour Penning, Jr.
He prefers Rick, Your Honor.
Counselor,
considering this young man's drunk-driving career,
he is fresh out of what he prefers.
Do we understand?
Yes, Your Honor.
Stand up.
Mr. Penning, this is your second D.U.l.
You have now compounded that travesty
by seriously iniuring a passenger.
Had this happened when you were 1 8, you would be in prison.
So, effective immediately, you are a ward of this Court.
l have therefore determined that you will be transported
and placed in the Wasatch County Juvenile Detention Center
in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Prior to your 1 8th birthday there will be a review to determine
whether you will be placed on probation
or transferred to an adult correctional facility
until such time as this Court deems you
no longer a danger to yourself and society.
Nice to meet you, Rick.
l'm Marcus Tate, Administrator here at Wasatch.
You can call me King Tate, Sir Mark, Marcus,
whatever you like.
Where's my stuff, Marcus?
Why, l had the bellhop take it to your suite.
lmportant.
This is Bingham, my right hand at Wasatch.
Hey, haole.
You'll be dealing mostly with Bingham, myself,
a couple of interns -- anyone else? No. That's about it.
l'll show you the rooms.
Here you go.
No doors.
No secrets.
lt's a part of ''Listen Right.''
Well, l'll let you get settled.
Dinner's in a half hour.
Oh! No spinning! l said no spinning from the beginning.
.. .the front-running flyers ripped the Sabres, 1 43.
.. .Dan Quinn scored three times,
helping the Penguins throttle the Jets 8-3.
The Leafs throttled.. .
l iust want to say hi.
And, uh...
l just wanted to see how you're doing.
l'm sorry.
l miss you.
Bye.
l'm telling you, let's iack him.
Nah, he's too much of a pretty boy for jacking.
A guy like you, what would you say?
Oxy? Vics? Percs?
Or maybe he's iust in here for his own protection.
Hey, we all say why we're in here, man.
Ernesto here, stealing Girl Scout cookies.
Me, for beating up Ernesto.
You?
For being a pretty boy?
Hey, get off him, punk!
Come on!
Are you gonna yell at me or what?
Shh. Just listen.
Deep down.
Was it right?
What?
Hey, it wasn't me. Those freaks started it.
You offended the home.
This is retarded.
You iust offended the home again, not to mention me.
Okay, l'm sorry.
Are you and the home happy now?
Almost.
About 1 O minutes. Lights out.
Better hurry up. You take forever.
Now, l want you guys to take notes.
l'm talking about something really serious.
l need you guys to pay attention, yeah? Okay?
You want me to say l love it here.
fine.
Great. l love it. It's...
l really don't even think l want to leave.
l want you to be honest, Rick.
You want me to be honest?
l hate it.
Every day for the last six months.
l deserve it.
l know that.
l didn't say that.
ls Dad there?
Hey.
He wants to talk to you.
l thought he'd be home by now.
Don't worry. l get it.
Merry Christmas, Mom.
Merry Christmas, sweetheart.
Go, go, go, go!
Hey, Penning! You too pretty to play?
Come on. We need you on ''d.'' We'll play touch if you want.
-He won't play. -Come and play with us.
He's afraid of messing up his pretty face.
l only play rugby.
All right. Listen up.
We usually play with 1 5 sides, 7 backs, 8 forwards.
But we're iust gonna have to make do with what we got here.
All right. All you guys in blue shirts on my left.
All the guys in the gray shirts on my right.
Line up about 2 feet apart.
You, back up about 5 yards. You're gonna throw the ball in.
Now, if you get tackled and you go down,
you must release the ball back to one of your own guys.
Then he takes it and goes.
We don't stop. There's no huddles, no time-outs.
So it's kind of like football and soccer.
lt's kind of like rugby.
You always have to pass the ball sideways or back, like this.
-Nice catch. -You just keep going
until you score, the ball goes out, or someone dies.
Man, this is iust a bad rip-off of football.
Actually, Americans ripped off rugby,
then they added sissy pads and helmets.
Whatever. You're going down either way.
Yeah. We'll see.
Throw it in over your head like this.
Actually, you know what? You should back up about 5 or 6 feet.
All right. You guys ready?
Down for the count, son! He's down for the count!
1 07 days, Darren.
Oh, come on. You can get through it, man.
Don't need to teach you the same thing every day.
Sounds like he's in a good mood.
Better!
Well, you better get back here in time for nationals, buddy.
Man, my dad's not gonna let me play.
Oh, come on. He wants to win. He'll play you.
Hey, l'm sending something your way
that l think might cheer you up.
Hey, brah. Marcus is waiting, yo.
l'm still on the phone.
Dude, they check my mail.
-l know that. l'm not an idiot. -You're not?
Aloha 'Oe.
Marcus is waiting.
Hey, man, what's so important that--?
Rick Penning, this is Kurt, ''Q '' and Tumo.
l know you love rugby, and l know you've heard of Highland.
They started their practices a week ago,
-so l thought-- -Oh. You thought wrong.
-As usual. -Yeah. Well, we win.
Yeah. We beat you.
You can come and find out how.
l already know how. You cheat.
Man, you don't know anything. Seriously.
Well, then, you can come find out how we cheat.
-How about that? -Not interested.
What's up, dude? Back up, man!
We both know that you've done all you can
to avoid learning anything while you've been here.
The upside is we've got the cleanest bathrooms that we've ever had.
All you've wanted to do since being here
is go back to Arizona the same kid.
So?
So if going home is all you're about,
you ought to know that the iudge can reduce your time here
based on my evaluation.
Sometime check out the back of your closet.
252.
l carved one of those a day when l was 16.
l didn't always have my head screwed on straight.
Rick, most of what we do here
l learned playing rugby from Coach Gelwix.
l owe that man my life.
l wanted Kurt and the other players to talk to you for a reason.
How much sooner?
l don't know.
Maybe before the end of rugby season.
Belt up, brah.
l'm not your ''bra'', so quit calling me that.
Okay, okay. No problem. Belt up...
.. .sister.
Ain't hardly no worries. l get paid by the hour, not the mile.
Holoholo!
Let's get them going! Knees up! Pick it up!
Let's have a good practice! Let's do it! Focus!
Up! Up! There you go! Keep it going! Nice!
Rick Penning?
lt's important for you to know right up front,
if you spend a whole lot of time in the gym, you work your hardest
with a complete commitment to do your best,
you eat smart, get enough sleep, and you work your tail off,
and someday...
someday you can have a body like mine.
Glad you're here. It'd be great to teach you how to play rugby.
l already know how to play rugby.
Oh, yeah? Okay. We'll see.
You're gonna be late. Come on.
-Good iob, Root! -Come on!
-Get 'em up! Get 'em up! -Keep 'em high! Keep 'em high!
Griggsie!
You're late!
Let's go, guys!
Let's see it higher, higher, higher! There you go!
Addison, four corner! Let's go!
All right, guys!
Hey, come on! Go!
There you go. Good.
Pop it! Come on, pop it!
Yeah, keep it going!
Five! Down for five! Let's go!
Good iob, rookie!
Thataway!
Let's go! Come on!
Randy out, Penning in.
Make 'em work, guys! Rugby passes!
Rugby passes! Let's go!
Let's go! Let's go!
Come on!
-Oh! -Down for five!
Take a left! Take a left!
Right, right, right! Go left! Go left!
That's all right. But one day you'll learn how to go left. Yeah?
There you go, Farley!
Hey, man, shouldn't he be down here coaching?
He been doing the coaching, brah. Go, go, go, go!
Hi, you've reached the Pennings.
We can't get to the phone --
One, two, one, two.. .
All right, guys. Bring it in. Let's go!
Keep it going!
Bounce those feet off the turf like it means something to you!
Knees up! Knees up!
Our season starts in three days with New Haven.
We ready?
Yes, Coach!
Coach Gelwix asked me to offer up a reminder.
Do we drink?
No, Coach!
Do we smoke or use drugs?
No, Coach!
And with the girls, do you keep yourselves clean and out of trouble?
Yes, Coach!
You got to give your word to yourself
and to your brothers on the team.
What are you laughing at?
Coach, how are you gonna know if we drink or get with the honeys?
Because you'd tell Coach Gelwix yourself.
Do we cheat? Do we lie?
No, Coach!
We got to have complete trust in each other.
You lie, you burn the bridge.
Any player who lies or cheats is gone for the season.
The only lies allowed at Highland Rugby, gentlemen,
are by me about my rugby career.
Who are we?
Highland Rugby!
Till the death. All right, guys, take a knee.
Randy.
Thanks, Coach.
-Phipp. -Coach.
Opetich.
We're about winning gentlemen, and not just in rugby.
And for that reason,
you will obtain a laserlike focus on and off the field.
That means discipline over every part of your life.
So, if you want easy, go play lacrosse or football or join the Marines.
Welcome, gentlemen, to Highland Rugby.
Coach!
Gladly. Hit the field, boys. Let's go!
-Positions! Let's go! -Let's go! Let's go!
Don't be lazy! Let's not be lazy!
They're like freaking choir boys.
Yeah, l know they are, Rick, but you got to open your eyes.
Yeah. You're in the inner sanctum.
No, man. Unh-unh. l am done.
Early out's not even worth it.
You know, you're not there to just suck up some judge.
Get over yourself. You're there to glom their secrets
and find out how they win.
They run everyone to death. That's how they win.
Okay, so what?
-Gina, chill, would you? -Get off the phone.
You, uh, get a little present yet?
lt should make you happy.
Yeah, it's cool, man.
Thanks.
Did you see Tam's message?
You wrote that, you loser. She won't even talk to me.
That's her mom, man.
And l didn't write that. Tami did.
Think about it, Rick.
Don't stress.
Don't stress, Rick.
Let's go, guys! Keep it tight!
Looking good! Looking good.
You've all earned yourself a three-second break.
One, two, three. All right, you know the drill.
Start unloading stuff.
Grab something and keep it moving.
Pass me that shovel.
Wear that, Sanchez.
Here you go, buddy.
Come on, man!
Let's go, guys. Clean all the trash.
Grab those rakes!
You're not into landscaping?
lt's one thing to run my guts out for you not playing rugby,
but this sucks.
They can pay someone to do this.
Son, when are you gonna dig down
and first-string the real Rick Penning?
l'm not your son.
Hey, guys, let's finish up!
Got to get to the sixth floor.
What's on the sixth floor?
You don't get what Coach Gelwix is doing, do you?
lt's what he's not doing.
He iust wants you to do your best.
Well, running until you puke isn't my idea of rugby.
Well, maybe someone who's coached 31 years
has some good ideas.
What are you doing?
Did he put you up to this?
No. What are you talking about, huh?
l'm an only child.
l don't need a big brother.
How about a friend, hm?
ls that what you are?
Yeah.
How about that one?
You're gonna help out, right?
All right.
lt's not my thing.
First game!
Look at number 1 2.
So, you ladies must be rugby fans.
What makes you say that?
Well, because you're sitting in my fan section.
So, are you?
We're Highland fans, yeah.
Well, then, today's your lucky day.
l'm their new wing.
Really?
Are you any good?
Well, yeah.
l'm the best.
Wow. Then l guess l'll have to keep my eye on you, huh?
You know, rugby's not the only thing that l'm good at.
Let's go, guys! Come on! Bring it together!
Let's go! Hustle, hustle!
Hey, Penning! Get your butt down here!
Sorry to cut this short, ladies, but they need me on the field.
Try not to hurt yourself!
Hey, l'm gonna say this once, all right?
Back off.
Hey, baby. Don't stress.
They iust want to meet me.
Bring it in, guys! Let's go! Hustle.
Hustle, hustle, hustle. Let's go.
Okay, listen up, guys.
We've got a couple of changes today.
We're starting Sanchez at 1 3.
Penning, you're at 2.
2?
Ah, give it up for him, guys.
Good iob, brah.
Peter!
Let's go.
Riggs.
-Thank you. -Penning.
First game, gentlemen. Play it like your last.
No regrets, all right? Bring it in.
Highland Rugby on three!
One, two, three!
Highland Rugby! Whoo!
All right, guys. Let's do it!
Let's go!
Congrats, man.
Read it. It's from a guy that used to play your number.
l don't play hook.
You read it.
Look, brah, position is everything, okay?
Coach Gelwix knows. Just trust him.
No. He doesn't know.
He's been sitting over there on his stupid lawn chair
ever since l've been here.
What don't l know?
l play wing.
l score. That is what l do.
l doesn't matter who scores.
lt only matters that we score.
The team is the star here, not any one player.
Rick, if you can't handle
or don't want to handle our coaching or our rules,
that's fine.
Rugby's hard enough.
We're out to make it harder.
lt's your choice.
Just give it a shot, okay?
l'm on your side.
Crouch and hold...
...engage!
Hey, get down.
Number 2! You got to stay low. Get down.
Crouch and hold!
Engage!
And the New Haven scrum half-sets the ball.
Line captain. Warning, number 2. Dangerous hit.
Come on. The way we practiced, all right?
l don't play hook!
Come on, Penning!
Position, position!
An excellent pass to Kurt Addison
results in New Haven standing him up into a maul.
Oh, Highland's number 2 rips the ball out,
but he's clearly offsides.
l'm sure the refs gonna call this one back.
Forward pass.
l don't know how you did it in Arizona,
but here we play as a team.
Okay, l don't play for your team. l play for myself.
That's great! Real great!
We got to pull him.
They'll work it out.
And our score, New Haven 21 , Highland 1 4.
New Haven scores again, giving them a 26-1 4 lead.
And it is evident the crowd
is not pleased with Highland's new hook, Rick Penning.
Highland not playing well under the pressure.
You're willing to take a loss for this kid?
lt's not always about rugby, Cal.
10 minutes in the bin.
What?! What are you talking about?
Just let it go. Let's just play, okay?
Come on! Let's go! Let's go! Come on!
Come on. Let's get it, fellas!
lt's over, folks.
New Haven crushes Highland 47-1 4.
After 23 consecutive wins,
it was bound to happen sometime.
Did we do our best out there?
No, Coach.
lf they were bigger, stronger, faster, that would be one thing.
lf they iust plain beat us, we could keep our head up.
No regret.
But we didn't play our game today.
We didn't put up our best.
We didn't leave it all on the field.
We owe more to the guys whose numbers you got on your backs.
So, let's go see what you got left in the tank.
Practice doesn't make perfect! Practice makes...
Permanent!
Who are we?
Highland Rugby. Kia kaha.
Yo, Kurt. What's that mean?
lt means you don't belong here.
-Hey, what's your problem, man? -You!
This isn't worth it!
No, you're not worth it, Penning.
But don't worry about it, all right?
'Cause every burnout we've ever had quits.
By the way, you're bleeding.
All right, let's go! Come on, let's go, let's go!
Hey, what's the secret sign, my Arizona brother?
Well, you asked for that.
You're real funny.
Hey, brother number 2.
l have a beautiful wife and great kids.
l love them all very much.
There's a brotherhood on this Highland Rugby
that you're not going to feel any other place or time.
Love it while you got it, brah.
You're not alone, never on or off the field.
l'm always with you. l care.
So do a couple of thousand others.
Make us proud.
Make yourself proud.
ls you ready, man?
-Ready for what? -Personal running.
Four miles a day, ten 100 yard sprints, ten 50s.
Coach upped the numbers after you left.
l didn't leave. l quit.
Yeah, but we didn't quit, man.
Leave me alone.
lt's 5:00 in the morning.
How did you guys even get in here?
Well, let's iust say Coach Gelwix called in a favor.
So, we're gonna be going or what?
You guys are both insane.
And, man, you stink!
Yeah, that's me, baby.
Tradition. Griggsie doesn't shower during season.
Why?
Well, it's bad karma. Do you want a hug, buddy?
No.
Come on, man. Let's go. Get up.
Come on. Get up, man.
-Yeah. That's right. -All right.
Let's do it!
Hey, Ricardo!
Come on. Let's pick it up, guys.
l got an early class today.
No. He would never play for Gelwix.
Uh, well, l talked to him.
l guess the iudge will let him out early if he does.
But, you know, this way he'll be out in time for nationals.
Yeah, and back here to play for us.
And loaded with all their strategies, secret plays, and stuff.
Maybe he wanted to surprise you.
What position?
Huh?
What position is he playing?
Hook.
l think. l don't know.
He was moaning about it.
All right, guys.
Let's hit the field.
See you out there, Coach.
Father in heaven, bless us,
to do our best,
to play well,
to play safe.
Bless the other team from Sweden...
Scotland.
.. .whatever,
to do the same.
Thank you for past brothers who are with us.
Help us to remember what has been done by them before,
to feel the ma'na, the power of family,
those living, those gone,
like my father and my mother,
Amen.
All right, everybody up. Bring it in on, Kurt!
Let's go, guys!
Highland Rugby on three! One, two, three!
Highland Rugby! Whoo!
-Brother... -ls something wrong?
Yeah, we're doing that dance, the chant. l don't know it.
You know it now, brah.
What's it mean?
Respect for our family and our ancestors.
We stand on this field ready for battle,
Heh!
At our backs, we feel the might of tradition,
remembering to honor our family
and our ancestors who have gone before.
Over our hearts...
...we bear the emblem to die for.
This challenge is now thrown to you.
Let's go.
Whoa!
Ka mate! Ka mate!
Ka ora! Ka ora!
Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora!
Tenei te tangata Puhuru huru
Nana i tiki mai Whakawhiti te ra
A, upa... ne! A, upa... ne!
A upane, ka upane Whiti te ra... Hi!
Let's go!
Attack! Attack!
Highland has the ball,
passing now to their fullback, Quentin Owens,
who slides...
That's it, kiddo!
Owens with another 5 points,
and Highland's starting to put this one away.
Every time they try to get something going,
Highland iust crushes it.
-Was that you? -Yeah, man.
Great tackle.
Thanks.
There's been good scrapping on both sides,
but at 29 to Scotland 7,
this exhibition has turned into a Highland clinic.
Yeah!
That was so good!
Way to play tonight, brah. That's what l'm talking about.
You was in the zone tonight.
Hey, l'll be back, now. Give me a second.
You iust can't seem to stay away.
How did l do?
Not bad for a rookie.
l know this is gonna be tough on you,
but l don't have another game until next week,
so you're gonna have to hang in there another six days.
Ooh. Yeah, you're right.
l iust don't know if l can wait that long.
-Can you? -Oh, never!
Rama!
Griggsie's leaving within 1 O minutes, so...
...come on, let's go!
What's a Rama?
l'll show you. Come on.
l'll see you later.
Bye.
Wow, muchas gracias, seņorita.
Welcome to Ranch-A-Rama.
Would you like one or two pieces?
Huh?
She wants to know how much you want, bud.
Whole thing.
Well, yeah, but...
Well, it is all you can eat, right?
Honestly, is it me, or did Rick actually pass the ball tonight?
Yeah, good iob!
Hey! Hey!
But that's only 'cause he thought hisself was open.
Kurt, start it up!
Ohhh!
# Uh-huh! Here we go now! #
# Uh, here we go now! #
# Uh, uh, when we step on the... Know how it's gonna beat ya ##
# And if you're real meaty Peeta's gonna eat ya #
# You know we stay legit #
Highland, my main man!
Huh, huh, huh, huh!
Hey, wait a second. Pull over real quick.
No bus, my car. l don't want to pull over.
Just pull over, all right?
C'mon, man. It's kind of late.
Just pull over.
Always trying to kill my vibes.
l thought we had a iack.
Oh, don't worry about it. We got two.
Oh, good.
l still can't get the wheel off, though.
Okay.
Let's go.
Go. Ooh-uh.
Ooh, cool! Let me try!
What did l tell you? Stay out of the street.
Hey, Kurt. You need a hand?
Don't worry about it. l got it.
l want you to stand right over here.
Soccer is for kids.
Football is for wussies.
Rugby's for men.

Lift open the trunk.

Kurt, Kurt, come on. Come on, man.
You'll be okay. Tumo, go get help! Go get help!
Kurt!
Stay with us, man. Come on. Stay with us.
What's going on? What happened? What?
lt's Kurt, man.
He's in surgery, man.
He iust needs to run it out, son.
Never had a player who wanted to win more.
lncredible athlete.
Rugby was in his blood.
He didn't always like to listen.
He blew out a knee a game before nationals,
and all his dreams for an overseas pro rugby career
iust gone like that.
Your father would swear to this day that he got hurt
because l played him in the wrong position.
Why haven't you told me about this?
Better question -- why hasn't he?
Well, l tell you what, guys. Let's bring it in, okay?
Come on.
Bring it in.
Now, ''Q '' what do you say, buddy?
Come on, ''Q.''
Penning.
''Q.''
l tutor him, if you have to know.

Let's go! Pick up the pace!
Let's move it!
Let's go! Let's go! Move, move, move!
Penning!
