1. Hike.
Copy !req
2. And Joseph Gribble
is sacked for another loss.
Copy !req
3. Common name. No relation.
Copy !req
4. Oh, boy.
Copy !req
5. Come on, we're still in this game.
Copy !req
6. Just two touchdowns,
a couple of two-point conversions,
Copy !req
7. an onside kick
and we're just a field goal behind.
Copy !req
8. Come on, let's make some noise.
Copy !req
9. Boo!
Copy !req
10. - Go, Arlen.
- Go, Arlen.
Copy !req
11. Go, Arlen.
Copy !req
12. Oh, here come the cheerleaders.
Copy !req
13. You think maybe they will do a real cheer
just this once?
Copy !req
14. All right, ladies, let's go.
Copy !req
15. How's that firing anybody up?
Copy !req
16. Use the mascot!
Copy !req
17. Look at Bobby.
Copy !req
18. He's just twiddling his hooves.
Copy !req
19. D Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky, tricky d.
Copy !req
20. And that's the ball game.
The Longhorns lose their fourth straight.
Copy !req
21. Principal Moss, who drives a black Altima
usually parked in front of the school,
Copy !req
22. thanks you for attending.
Copy !req
23. D That's right on time
it's tricky, it's tricky d.
Copy !req
24. Whatever happened
Copy !req
25. to cheerleaders actually cheering?
Copy !req
26. Alice Bullard.
Copy !req
27. She was the best cheer coach
Copy !req
28. I have ever seen.
Copy !req
29. And she was 98 years old.
Copy !req
30. I wonder whatever happened to that woman.
Copy !req
31. You know, I remember my junior year
in a game against Belton.
Copy !req
32. I just didn't have it,
Copy !req
33. but then our cheerleaders
started their "Be Aggressive" cheer,
Copy !req
34. and I was, and we won.
Copy !req
35. Hank, I'm gonna do us all a favor.
Copy !req
36. I am gonna help that new
cheerleading coach get her act together.
Copy !req
37. I really did stay sweet.
Copy !req
38. Peggy Hill at your service.
Copy !req
39. Great. Grab a handle.
This thing weighs a ton.
Copy !req
40. Ah. Wow, I feel like
I'm already making an impact.
Copy !req
41. Now, how else can I help you
get the cheerleaders on track?
Copy !req
42. On track?
Copy !req
43. Does this look like the vest of a coach
who's not on track?
Copy !req
44. FYI, we've had two wins
at the Slim-Fast Invitational,
Copy !req
45. and one at Tampax.
Copy !req
46. Yes, yes, very impressive.
Copy !req
47. But I have noticed that the cheerleaders
Copy !req
48. are not really spending any time
backing the football team.
Copy !req
49. The cheer squad doesn't get trophies
for how good the football team does.
Copy !req
50. We get 'em for motion and dance,
Copy !req
51. basket tosses, jumps,
Copy !req
52. and attitude.
Copy !req
53. You know, cheerleading
has changed since your day.
Copy !req
54. Wait
Copy !req
55. you never had a day, did you?
Copy !req
56. You weren't a cheerleader.
Copy !req
57. No, but only because people who thought
they knew me,
Copy !req
58. but clearly did not, would not let me.
Copy !req
59. Hmm. Welcome aboard.
Copy !req
60. Oh, and that mat has to go
all the way over there.
Copy !req
61. So Peggy's gonna help coach
the cheerleaders at Landry.
Copy !req
62. She says they're gonna do real cheers.
Copy !req
63. Good, but what we need to do
is get rid of Principal Moss.
Copy !req
64. Maybe I should put bourbon in his thermos
and try to knock him off the wagon.
Copy !req
65. Don't worry, he can't hide
behind improved test scores forever.
Copy !req
66. - Hank. Dinner.
- Excuse me, fellas.
Copy !req
67. I've got to go have dinner
with a cheerleader.
Copy !req
68. Why does everything good happen to Hank?
Copy !req
69. Cheerleaders.
Copy !req
70. Why does everybody think
they're so special?
Copy !req
71. I could be covering
the debate tournament finals right now.
Copy !req
72. Let's do a cheer!
Copy !req
73. - Your mom's a cheerleader?
- Come on! Go, go,
Copy !req
74. - go, Longhorns!
- Wow.
Copy !req
75. I thought that was just
more of her big talk.
Copy !req
76. Maybe she really did see Dan Rather
at the mall.
Copy !req
77. Okay, girls,
who's ready to make some noise?
Copy !req
78. Right. Our first lesson will be
how to make some noise.
Copy !req
79. I don't have time for this.
I need a new top-of-the-pyramid.
Copy !req
80. We've just lost our lightest girl
to homeschooling.
Copy !req
81. Problem understood and solved.
Copy !req
82. But how?
Copy !req
83. Connie, how would you like to be
the top of the pyramid?
Copy !req
84. - Huh?
- And…
Copy !req
85. Whoa!
Copy !req
86. Nice hang time.
You want to be a cheerleader?
Copy !req
87. Me? Are you kidding?
Copy !req
88. Hey, smart girl from my algebra class,
Copy !req
89. why are you dressed like a cheerleader?
Copy !req
90. Because I, um… am a cheerleader.
Copy !req
91. Cool. Well, you want to come
to a sleep-over?
Copy !req
92. We're gonna sit around
and make fun of everybody.
Copy !req
93. Cheer One, this is Cheer Two.
Copy !req
94. If you can hear me, give me a Y.
Copy !req
95. Oh, you could not look any cuter
if you were dangling a kitten.
Copy !req
96. It's amazing.
I put on this outfit, and it's, like…
Copy !req
97. What's the opposite of invisible?
Copy !req
98. I've never had to know.
Copy !req
99. Thank you, Mrs. Hill.
Copy !req
100. Okay, girls, who's ready
Copy !req
101. to turn this mother out?
Copy !req
102. MC Hammer is. Get in formation.
Copy !req
103. Or we could get the crowd into the game.
Copy !req
104. How about a cheer?
Copy !req
105. Go… Longhorns.
Copy !req
106. Peggy, the last thing we need
Copy !req
107. is for our cheerleaders
to be distracted by the game.
Copy !req
108. What I do need is for you
to find my purse.
Copy !req
109. - Find your purse?
- Yes.
Copy !req
110. Oh, and go tell Karen Smelko I said hi.
Copy !req
111. She's on the fourth row up,
not counting the first row.
Copy !req
112. I will get the purse,
but I am undecided on the greeting.
Copy !req
113. Sorry I'm late.
Copy !req
114. Took longer than I thought
to wash the eggs off my car.
Copy !req
115. Sorry I'm late.
Copy !req
116. It took longer than I thought
to egg Moss's car.
Copy !req
117. Hey, Peggy, shouldn't you be down there
spelling things with your arms?
Copy !req
118. No, Hank, I have a different job.
Copy !req
119. Karen Smelko?
Copy !req
120. Arlen has the ball,
fourth and goal,
Copy !req
121. and they're going for it.
Copy !req
122. Uh, they haven't converted
a fourth down all season.
Copy !req
123. They're gonna need the crowd
behind them.
Copy !req
124. Okay, let's take a break.
Copy !req
125. We've got our '80s Mega-Mix coming up.
Copy !req
126. Where are they going?
Copy !req
127. They're braiding each other's hair?
Copy !req
128. That does it.
Copy !req
129. Come on.
Copy !req
130. Let's help our boys before it's too late.
Copy !req
131. You heard them.
Let's push that ball with all your might.
Copy !req
132. Ho, yeah.
Copy !req
133. Hey, Hank, your wife just reminded me
of why I love football.
Copy !req
134. - Winning!
- See, Moss?
Copy !req
135. We need more of that and less of this.
Copy !req
136. And because of you and your chanting,
Copy !req
137. Francine just nailed a standing backflip
that no one saw.
Copy !req
138. That was something, Peggy.
Copy !req
139. Look, how would you like to replace
Jo Rita as the cheerleading coach?
Copy !req
140. Me? Well, I…
Copy !req
141. Excuse me. One moment.
Copy !req
142. Peggy, you know we're supposed
to keep this channel open
Copy !req
143. for uniform emergencies.
Copy !req
144. Sorry, I just wanted you to give
Karen Smelko a message from me.
Copy !req
145. Principal Moss just made me
the new cheerleading coach.
Copy !req
146. What? I…
Copy !req
147. Attención, ladies.
Copy !req
148. Where's Jo Rita?
Copy !req
149. It is not important where she is.
Copy !req
150. What is important is why she is not here.
Copy !req
151. Why is she not here?
Copy !req
152. Because she did not understand
the role of a cheerleader.
Copy !req
153. To get the fans fired up,
Copy !req
154. to bring the crowd into the game,
Copy !req
155. to give our team the extra edge
Copy !req
156. that can turn a narrow defeat
into a certain victory.
Copy !req
157. Uh, do we still get to wear our uniforms
to school on Fridays?
Copy !req
158. Yes.
Copy !req
159. Okay.
Copy !req
160. Whoo! Yeah!
Copy !req
161. What ball is she talking about?
Copy !req
162. Do the two-point conversion cheer.
Copy !req
163. Perhaps I didn't set that up properly.
Copy !req
164. We would do that cheer after we've scored,
Copy !req
165. but only when it would be advantageous
for us to get two points.
Copy !req
166. Once again, from the top.
Copy !req
167. D Hey, there, coach d.
Copy !req
168. Well, this is all going to hell.
Copy !req
169. I can't have bored kids at an assembly.
Copy !req
170. It's asking for trouble.
I'm going to cue the band.
Copy !req
171. Oh, no. No. Not the band.
Copy !req
172. Okay, I can't save the cougar
for the finale.
Copy !req
173. Misty, put this on
and chase your tail like an idiot.
Copy !req
174. It won't fit.
Copy !req
175. Yes, it will. It'll fit. Come on.
It's for the team.
Copy !req
176. Yeah, kill that cougar.
Copy !req
177. Yeah. Choke it.
Copy !req
178. Quick, everybody,
beat the crap out of Misty.
Copy !req
179. What?
Copy !req
180. Yeah. Kick its butt, Connie.
Copy !req
181. I broke a nail.
Copy !req
182. Ladies, I have learned something today.
Copy !req
183. People like violence.
Copy !req
184. From now on,
we will demoralize their teams
Copy !req
185. by systematically mock-secuting
their mascots.
Copy !req
186. Everyone, take a knife.
Copy !req
187. Is it stab-and-stab?
Copy !req
188. No, it's stab and a-stab.
Copy !req
189. Okay, let's have a run-through.
Misty, get in the cougar costume.
Copy !req
190. The costume smells like a butt.
Copy !req
191. And it's really more of a job
for an ugly girl.
Copy !req
192. I'll do it.
Copy !req
193. I am slain.
Copy !req
194. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
195. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
196. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
197. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
198. I'm so
Copy !req
199. cold.
Copy !req
200. No hats in the lunchroom, Dooley.
Take it off.
Copy !req
201. I'll die in these horns.
Copy !req
202. Yeah, I am silly.
Copy !req
203. Hey, Peggy.
Why don't you sit with us today?
Copy !req
204. Oh, sweet Jesus. The cool table.
Copy !req
205. Oh, I'm sorry, Jo Rita.
Copy !req
206. Pull up the stepladder.
Copy !req
207. You know, Jo Rita, I could use some help.
Copy !req
208. You want me to find your purse?
Copy !req
209. I want you to be my assistant.
Copy !req
210. I'd love to.
Copy !req
211. So, Peggy, give us the scoop.
Copy !req
212. What have you got planned
for the Yellow Jackets this weekend?
Copy !req
213. Well, we have this yellow jacket costume
Copy !req
214. and we're gonna put someone in it
and we're gonna stab it.
Copy !req
215. Uh, that's it? Another stabbing?
Copy !req
216. Hey, maybe doing the same thing
over and over again will be our thing.
Copy !req
217. It won't be boring.
Copy !req
218. No. It'll be comforting.
Copy !req
219. Ladies, we have a problem.
Copy !req
220. Knife play is just not enough anymore.
Copy !req
221. Ideas. Yellow Jacket. Go.
Copy !req
222. We could rip open its thorax
Copy !req
223. and stuff it with its own abdomen?
Copy !req
224. Bobby, how is your death rattle?
Copy !req
225. - Great. Now, who do we play after that?
- The Boswell Bears.
Copy !req
226. Okay, okay. Now, how do you make
a bear suffer?
Copy !req
227. Tie it up and torture its young.
Copy !req
228. There's no mascot we can't torture.
Copy !req
229. Yeah. Yeah.
Copy !req
230. Huh?
Copy !req
231. Okay, Jo Rita, who's next?
Copy !req
232. - The Tornados.
- Hmm.
Copy !req
233. - How are you gonna kill a tornado?
- Shoot it.
Copy !req
234. Good news.
Copy !req
235. Because of all the school spirit,
game attendance is up.
Copy !req
236. I know. The ushers cannot keep up
with the after-game garbage.
Copy !req
237. Yeah, but none of this will mean anything
unless we beat McMaynerbury at Homecoming.
Copy !req
238. Peggy, I'm giving you the halftime show.
Copy !req
239. It will be my finest hour.
Copy !req
240. Now, who is McMaynerbury?
Copy !req
241. Oh. The Fighting Irish.
Copy !req
242. Fighting, fighting
Copy !req
243. fi… fly… flying
Copy !req
244. fly on the wall…
Copy !req
245. Maybe the other part, the Irish.
Copy !req
246. That's got to be fertile territory.
Copy !req
247. Irish, Irish, flyrish.
Copy !req
248. Oh. No, don't force it.
Let it come to you, Peggy.
Copy !req
249. People have made fun of the Irish
in the past.
Copy !req
250. Maybe you can build on their work.
Copy !req
251. You know, my husband keeps
several ethnic joke books in the bathroom.
Copy !req
252. I'll find something good.
Copy !req
253. Longhorns. Longhorns.
Copy !req
254. And that's the end of the first half,
Copy !req
255. with the Longhorns leading 31-2.
Copy !req
256. Well, the playoffs are a lock.
Copy !req
257. Peggy says the halftime show
is gonna be high school caliber.
Copy !req
258. Okay, girls, this is it.
Copy !req
259. Misty, grab the rainbow.
Copy !req
260. Everyone else get out your shillelaghs.
Copy !req
261. Beating sticks.
Copy !req
262. Where's Jo Rita?
Copy !req
263. The buckets of blood are in her car.
Copy !req
264. All right. Go. Go.
Copy !req
265. I'm so glad you could make it,
Mr. Flannery, Mr. Finnerty,
Copy !req
266. Mrs. O'Brien-Diaz.
Copy !req
267. And now, if you'll direct
your attention to the 50-yard line
Copy !req
268. for a special presentation
by the Longhorn cheerleaders.
Copy !req
269. Here, use my binoculars.
Copy !req
270. I brought enough for everybody.
Copy !req
271. Top of the morning to ya, Arlen.
Copy !req
272. I'm Irish.
Copy !req
273. I hope I don't die
from a wee bit of the consumption.
Copy !req
274. Sorry, Fighting Irishman,
but your jig is up.
Copy !req
275. Beat him. Get him.
Copy !req
276. Beat him. Beat him. Beat him. Beat him.
Copy !req
277. Be patient. Be patient.
Copy !req
278. What the heck's goin' on?
Copy !req
279. Are they ever coming out of there?
Copy !req
280. I bet they're trying
to keep the quarterback from crying.
Copy !req
281. My legs have fallen asleep.
Copy !req
282. Oh. Ah.
Copy !req
283. Okay. We are in their heads.
Copy !req
284. Right now, they are in there wishing
they joined the tennis team.
Copy !req
285. Uh, Peggy, The Fighting Irish
ain't coming out.
Copy !req
286. Oh, my God.
We have cheered them into submission.
Copy !req
287. Yeah.
Copy !req
288. Actually, they're protesting the game.
Copy !req
289. But… What? Why?
Copy !req
290. 'Cause of what you did to that leprechaun.
Copy !req
291. Peggy, they're saying
you committed a hate crime.
Copy !req
292. Aw, there goes me liver.
Copy !req
293. I can't believe
Copy !req
294. the school board is thinking about
taking our win away.
Copy !req
295. As long as we stand firm,
Copy !req
296. we've got nothing to worry about.
Copy !req
297. Now, I can take a joke as well
as the next person,
Copy !req
298. but Peggy Hill has gone too far.
Copy !req
299. What she did on that field
Copy !req
300. is no different than what the British
have been doing
Copy !req
301. to our brothers in Ulster
for the last 800 years.
Copy !req
302. The forced labor, the seizure of property,
Copy !req
303. the stifling and oppression
of our precious mother tongue.
Copy !req
304. I have no idea what he just said,
Copy !req
305. but I do know that McMaynerbury
refused to play.
Copy !req
306. They forfeited the game.
Copy !req
307. And after the game, someone
called me "Pat" in the parking lot.
Copy !req
308. It is my name,
but they had no way of knowing that.
Copy !req
309. This ain't good, Moss.
Copy !req
310. They're gonna take away our win.
Do something.
Copy !req
311. Now, hold on.
Copy !req
312. It'd be a shame to take
this win away from our boys
Copy !req
313. just 'cause of Peggy.
Copy !req
314. That would be blaming the victim.
Copy !req
315. What?
Copy !req
316. You were all behind me
Copy !req
317. when it was the Cougars
and the Bears and the Mudhawks.
Copy !req
318. It would have been disrespectful of me
not to bludgeon the Irishman.
Copy !req
319. Peggy, shush.
Copy !req
320. Whatever the board decides,
I want you to know, I am proud of you.
Copy !req
321. And maybe I did get caught up
in my own popularity and lose my focus,
Copy !req
322. because it's really not about
torture or beatings, or maiming per se.
Copy !req
323. It's about backing your team
and inspiring them to victory.
Copy !req
324. Good news, Peggy. They let us keep our W.
Copy !req
325. We're going to the playoffs.
Copy !req
326. Woo-hoo. The big dance.
Copy !req
327. - Well, don't worry, my team is ready.
- Sorry, Peggy.
Copy !req
328. I'm gonna have to ask you
to stop using words like "team" and "my."
Copy !req
329. I'm putting Jo Rita back in charge.
Copy !req
330. What? Jo Rita?
Copy !req
331. Now, you can keep teaching Spanish,
Copy !req
332. but we're gonna have to keep an eye out
Copy !req
333. in case you decide
to go after those people.
Copy !req
334. This is crazy.
Copy !req
335. The only thing I hate
is watching dance routines
Copy !req
336. while our team loses another game.
Copy !req
337. Peggy, why don't you show these girls
how to lose gracefully.
Copy !req
338. I will not.
Copy !req
339. And if I go, the cheerleaders will go
in a V formation right behind me.
Copy !req
340. Right, girls?
Copy !req
341. I'm sorry, Mrs. Hill,
but we like being cheerleaders… a lot.
Copy !req
342. We feel so bad.
Copy !req
343. You, too, Connie?
Copy !req
344. I can't go back. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
345. We'll need you to turn in your vest,
you know, for future coaches named Peggy.
Copy !req
346. Uh, Peggy,
Copy !req
347. me and the boy have worked up
a little something here.
Copy !req
348. I got great seats.
Copy !req
349. I told you, I'm not going to the game.
Copy !req
350. After all I did, nobody stood up and said,
Copy !req
351. "I know Peggy Hill,
and she's no hate monger."
Copy !req
352. They all just cut and ran. Even Connie.
Copy !req
353. But you know who didn't
turn their back on you, Peggy?
Copy !req
354. The team.
Copy !req
355. Dang it, this is the big game.
Copy !req
356. What happens when the other side yells
Copy !req
357. Well, Peggy,
Copy !req
358. how 'bout you?
Copy !req
359. Sorry, Mrs. Hill.
Copy !req
360. Principal Moss gave me strict orders
not to let you in.
Copy !req
361. What? That's ridiculous.
Copy !req
362. Stay out of this, sir.
Our beef's not with you.
Copy !req
363. And the cheerleaders
seem to be doing another human pyramid.
Copy !req
364. Oh. The Arlen quarterback gets leveled.
Copy !req
365. Come on, girls, I'm only seeing freak.
Copy !req
366. I want to see super-freak.
Copy !req
367. Set. Blue 32. Hike.
Copy !req
368. Connie, focus.
Copy !req
369. This is the playoffs, for God's sakes.
Copy !req
370. My bullhorn!
Copy !req
371. What are you doing?
Copy !req
372. Someone has to light a fire
under this crowd.
Copy !req
373. Connie, get back in formation
this instant,
Copy !req
374. or you can say goodbye to the uniform
