Devin: You know that old saying,
"Don't get mad, get even"?
Well, this is us trying to get even.
I should probably start at the beginning.
[whistle blowing]
[sighing]
Good game, guys. We're now 6 and 3.
That's not bad considering where we started.
How can you be in a good mood?
Because we just won a game.
And how can we keep winning
when the reason we're winning is leaving?
Face it, Devin,
once Coach leaves us, we're doomed.
How could he do this to us?
He's not doing anything.
It's Pinewood who's stealing him.
She's right.
We can't blame him for going to Pinewood.
It's not like he's doing it to be mean.
Exactly.
Which is why we need to teach those Pinebots a lesson.
Wait, I didn't say that.
Good game, ladies.
Really played like a team today.
Okay, what's going on?
You guys look like you lost the game.
No. We just lost our coach.
Oh. [sighs] You know about that.
We heard it from one of the Pinewood girls.
How could you not tell us?
I didn't tell you because there's nothing to tell.
I've only had a couple of interviews.
It's not a done deal.
[cell phone chimes]
Oh, okay. Now it's a done deal.
But the game of revenge is kind of like soccer.
Don't just try to get even.
If you want to win, you gotta get ahead.

First of all, I didn't seek them out.
They came to me.
Yeah, 'cause I told that Pinebot
who gave me the tour about you.
And I am sorry you had to hear it from them.
But this is a full time coaching position.
Which means I don't have to work maintenance anymore.
It's okay, Coach. We get it.
We wish you and Pinewood nothing but the best.
Is this you being sarcastic again?
No, no, no, we really do.
Right, guys?
All: Yeah.
Yes, this is huge for you.
We can't blame you for accepting the job.
Well, this is very...
mature of you.
I'm impressed with how much you've grown,
not just as soccer players but as young ladies.
Anyway, I'll see you at practice tomorrow.
We need to crush those guys.
But you just said you wish Pinewood nothing but the best.
I was lying.
Did we meet?
We need to get revenge.
I don't know. Revenge?
It seems a little...
harsh.
Mirabelle's right.
Pinewood took advantage of us.
Our revenge should be swift and merciless.
For once I agree with Parker.
- Mm-hm. - Yeah.
What about you, captain?
You know, when I was back in--
Back in Connecticut.
This is actually a relevant Connecticut story.
We had a similar rivalry with another school.
Tillbrook.
You wouldn't believe what we did to get revenge.
For once, a Connecticut story I care about.
Go on.
So this is what we did.
Whoa. This one's blowing up.
I told you, people can't get enough of the Robopocalypse.
I can't believe Coach Rivas is leaving.
Yeah. We worked really hard to get him,
and he's been awesome.
Well, at least he's not leaving until the Fall.
You know, he'll still be with us for the Pinewood game.
You guys must be really upset, though.
We are, but we're planning to be mature about it.
By the way, did you get the picture
of the dress I want for the soccer banquet?
I did. It might be a little too mature.
We can go shopping tomorrow.
So, we'll need to rig your drone to the camera.
Easy. And I could probably mod the control units
- to take the pictures. - [chuckles]

They were in the front office.
"Dear Kentville,
"you got us good, and we're sorry for stealing your coach.
"Here's a small token of our friendship.
"Looking forward to our rematch on Saturday."
That was a classy move.
Are you kidding?
They're not really sorry.
They're just trying to get us to put our guards down.
Well, I'm not gonna put my guard down.
But I will have one of their doughnuts.

Okay, that's actually not how ownership works.
But, whatever.
Hey, look. It's the Kentville sock-er team.
Remind me again, are you in Hufflepuff, or Slytherin?
I don't know.
Why don't you ask the golden snitch over there.
Hey, I didn't snitch.
You used confidential information from my tour
to steal our coach.
Well, maybe if you were better players--
Let's not escalate things.

No, you'd better hold me back.

Finally. Welcome to the party.
Look, we need to go big.
Okay? No more small time pranks.

Tillbrook surrendered after the flamingoes,

I don't want to hear it.
But this is the shot my followers are waiting for.
I don't care about your followers, Bails,

But-- Hey, stop, stop, stop!
You will get this back when you pay for the lamp,
and you learn some responsibility.
But I bet if I broke the lamp with a soccer ball,
you'd be buying me a trophy.
Bailey!
Bailey.
[sighs] Here.
I'm really sorry about the lamp.
I'll help Bailey pay for it.
Well, that's very considerate of you,
but you don't have to do that. You're a guest.
The project was both of ours, so it's only fair.

It's really blowing up.

20,000. Seriously?
Bailey's kind of a big deal.
20,000?
He has 22,000 followers.
That's impressive.
Our company only has 15,000,
and we're a big corporation.
Look at the comments.
"Amazing shot."
"I love this pic."
"So true. LOL."

A day in the life of middle school.
- This is really an amazing one. - I know.
- He's got a really good eye. - Mm-hm.
Oh, look. He's got some pictures from Devin's game.
Oh, and that's the one he did with the drone.

Ow. That will hurt in the morning.

Everyone has a job,

All right, guys. Let's go over everything one more time
just to make sure we've got it.
Step one: the alibi.
All right. Let's warm up.
Coach, I don't feel too good.
I think it's the orange chicken
a few of us had for lunch.
Jessi: How come Emma gets to do that part?
Devin: Because she's very believable.
Emma: It's true. I always think I'm sick.
Okay, then. Practice is cancelled.
Step two: breaching the perimeter.
Let's do this.
Lily: But how will you get inside without anyone noticing?
Devin: Easy.
We're gonna walk right through the front door.
Lily: Yeah, right. How?
Mirabelle: Remember the Pinewood uniform my mom ordered?
It arrived.
Right this way,
prospective Pinewood students.
Besides a great education,
Pinewood also offers many extra amenities, like--
Oh, no.
Extra amenities like tennis courts,
and an indoor pool,
and a state-of-the-art sound system.
We also offer a special class
where we teach you how to walk with your nose in the air.
Devin: Step 3: the diversion.
Lily: Your big idea is a sign.
Devin: A school that strict,
people love to follow the rules.
And now, my favorite part of the tour.
The trophy case.

Lily: But what if something goes wrong?
Devin: Don't worry. We thought of everything.
Someone's coming.
Hey! What are you doing?
Uh--

never hurt anyone.

But this is serious.
What were you planning on doing with that jersey?
Best if you don't know.
You're probably right.
But it stops now.
Do you hear me?

- Right. - Yes.
Look, this hatred of Pinewood is misplaced.
Remember, it was my decision to go.
That's true.
It was your decision to abandon us.

Let's just get all our feelings out.
I really don't think that's a good idea.
Sure it is. It's healthy.
Come on. I can take it.
Okay, fine.
You betrayed us.
You're the first coach we've had
that really believed in us.
And that made us believe in us.
But it was all just a lie.
Yeah, and now you're gonna go believe in Pinewood.
- Of all places. - It feels like a slap in the face.
- All: Yeah. - And after everything we've been through together,
- it's so wrong. - All: Yes.
You should have at least had the decency
- to tell us yourself. - She's right.
I mean, we deserve that much.
- Yeah. - We should have just
left you alone in the hallway with your mop.
Anyone else?
Feel better?
Okay.
