Go outta your mind

You're here, it's now

Surrender your soul to the big beat sound

It's here, it's now

Smash up the jukebox

Boy, go outta your mind!

Oh!

- What is this stuff?

- It's Dad's healthiest smoothie.

Okay. Here, try this.

- Thought you were gonna try it with me.

- Yeah, right.

All right. You know...

Okay. Maybe it needs some more fruit.

Why don't... I'll fix it.

Was that the doorbell?

Well, could you check?

Nobody.

Okay. Now try this.

Mmm!

Your dad's theories always need

a little fine-tuning.

So how did he take it?

He canceled

our one-on-one training sessions.

Well, you know, there...

There are lots of other things

you can do together.

- Like what?

- I don't know. You could go to a play.

You could go

to the Museum of Modern Art.

Take in a ballet. All right, fine.

Let him take you clothes shopping.

I hate clothes shopping.

I never know what to get.

- Gil?

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Hey.

We got another shot at the National Team.

- I just got word.

- What?

Yeah. They lost a forward.

She broke her foot.

- Still got time to get a practice in.

- Okay. Then let's go.

- What are you doing?

- Didn't you hear? We got another shot.

- Gil, she has algebra.

- Yeah, algebra can wait.

You know,

sometimes I think that you forget

that she's just a 15-year-old girl.

Fifteen years, four months.

- With a chance to be the youngest...

- Yeah, I know. I know. I know.

Let me ask you something,

what does it matter

that she's the youngest ever?

It matters to me and her.

Can you come outside?

Look. First, family dinners disappear.

And then vacations become

soccer tournaments.

A couple of months ago,

you start spending the night at the office,

so I'm sleeping alone.

Sara's so busy she can hardly see straight,

and Elvis here has left the building!

Where are we going with this?

Gil, tell me, because I don't know.

I'm just trying to get a few things...

Julia, she loves soccer.

She loves

whatever you would do together.

She's got the rest of her life to play sports.

- Let's ask her what she wants to do.

- It is not that simple.

This looks like a serious conversation.

Your mom's still worried

we're overdoing it with the soccer.

Mom, this is definitely what I want to do.

I may not be good enough,

but I at least want to try.

All right.

You can do your homework

when you get back.

I can hardly wait.

Bigger leg-swing, Sara.

Plant your foot like you're shooting it.

I'll balance you with your arm.

Give me your leg. Okay. Lock the knee.

It's all one motion, okay?

It's pretty much swing from the hip.

- Okay.

- Okay. Try it again.

Good. That's what I'm talking about. Good.

Come on, hold me strong.
