The episode started off with Riggans living with the Taylor's and Tami's sister, Shelly flirting and drooling over him. There is a news report that a tornado warning is in effect for Dillon. Riggans and Julie go to the grocery store, Julie asks Riggans if he is going to the school's Fall formal, he says no, she says me neither. In ultra dramatic fashion, Riggans looks out the window and sees the tornado coming and covers up Julie as the tornado hits, knocking out all the windows in the grocery store.. As a result of the tornado, Larabee, a Dillon rival, had their school damaged and their students, particularly the football team will be attending classes and practicing at Dillon, 2 weeks before they play each other. I can't imagine this would ever happen in the real world, considering the overcrowded schools situation across the country, that 2 schools could completely merge, but I digress. Lyla's mom, Pam tells her that she his getting married to Kevin. The Dillon players watch as the Larabee players unload their stuff from their buses. Taylor tells the team they need to share their facilities and to be good hosts to the other school. Landry asks Tyra if she wants to go to the dance and she says she is going with someone else (Larabee QB1, Chip.) Buddy takes his kids to an arcade and Lyla, breaks the news about Pam's engagement, and he had no idea, Buddy gets the idea that he needs to go tell her that he loves her. Buddy goes to the house and bares his soul, Pam doesn't accept his apology. Larabee's coach is a bit of a jerk and has very little control/looks the other way as his team trashes the Panther locker room, disregards the practice field sharing schedule and causes trouble. When the Panthers retaliate, Taylor scolds them and makes them run the stairs as the Larabee coach finds nothing wrong with what his team did. Landry asks Julie, what he should do about him and Tyra, Julie seems surprised that there is anything between them. Tyra tells Julie that she likes Landry, but things are complicated between them. Tami yells at Shelly for drooling over Riggans, Tami tells Shelly she needs to act more like an adult. Julie and Riggans see Saracen and Carlotta kissing in his car, and Julie gets upset. Coach Taylor likes having Riggans at the house because it ups the man ratio. Landry sees Tyra talking to Chip and gets into a fight that leads into a team vs. team brawl in the cafeteria, then a food fight. After the Larabee team urinates in the Panther's lockers, Riggans goes into the weight room to confront the Larabee team and their Coach pushes Riggans to the ground. Taylor rushes in and threatens the coach, saying he should never put his hands on one of his players or he will never coach again. At home, Riggans thanks Coach Taylor for helping out with the other coach. Landry shows up at the dance looking for Tyra, whom he finds sitting by herself. Landry asks her where Chip is, she says he is in the bathroom throwing up. Tyra tells Landry that she cares about him, but she needs time to figure things out. Landry tells her that it doesn't make sense to him and she is better than that. Riggans sees some guy, trying to make out with Julie at a party and threatens him, I think its more because he is looking out for her then trying to get with her. Riggans drives her home and carries her into the house because she is drunk and as he is putting her into bed, Coach Taylor sees Julie with her arms around Riggans and assumes the worst and kicks Riggans out of the house.
Next week: Coach Taylor makes things tough for Riggans and the Larabee coach attacks Riggans while he is running down the field.
