Full Hearts
"Full Hearts" is the ninth episode of the first season of the American sports drama television series Friday Night Lights, inspired by the 1990 nonfiction book by H. G. Bissinger. The episode was written by Aaron Rahsaan Thomas and directed by Josh Pate. It originally aired on NBC on December 5, 2006.
The series is set in the fictional town of Dillon, a small, close-knit community in rural West Texas. It follows a high school football team, the Dillon Panthers. It features a set of characters, primarily connected to Coach Eric Taylor, his wife Tami, and their daughter Julie. In the episode, Smash worries about going back to his hometown for the next game, while Matt and Julie go on a date.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 6.13 million household viewers and gained a 2.2 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received critical acclaim, with critics praising the performances, writing, character development and humor.
Smash (Gaius Charles) uses the church donations to pay for the steroids, although he feels guilt over his actions. He is also concerned about his incoming game, which will take place at Gatling, his hometown. At the hospital, Lyla (Minka Kelly) tries to apologize to Jason (Scott Porter) over her affair with Tim (Taylor Kitsch), but Jason removes all their pictures from the wall, ending their relationship. A dejected Lyla leaves the hospital, leaving a present for Jason at the entrance.
Matt (Zach Gilford) prepares for his date with Julie (Aimee Teegarden), buying a Members Only jacket when pressured by Landry (Jesse Plemons). When he arrives to pick her up, Tami (Connie Britton) disapproves of Julie's clothing and forces her to change it. He takes her to a theater to watch Eragon but the screening is sold out, and he unsuccessfully tries to use his status as quarterback to get preferential treatment. Their date is cut short when Landry, who is watching Lorraine (Louanne Stephens), calls when Lorraine has a breakdown, forcing Matt to take Julie at his house and calm his grandmother by singing "Mr. Sandman". Julie asks Landry to take her home, and Matt believes he blew it, although Landry says that she thought it was sweet. Separately, Julie tells Tami that for the first time, she saw the "real" Matt.
Rumors start circulating around high school regarding Lyla and Tim's affair, with Tim being sidelined by the team when they believe he punched Jason. The team visits Jason at the hospital, who states that he was the one who punched Tim. When they deduce the rumors are real, they say they will "take care" of the situation. Later, the team intercepts Tim as he arrives home, smashing his pick-up with baseball bats. As he cleans it, Tyra (Adrianne Palicki) shows up and angrily slaps him for sleeping with Lyla, ending their relationship again. She visits Jason at the hospital with beer, and they both bond by mocking Tim and Lyla.
Tami and Buddy (Brad Leland) are forced to meet with Gatling boosters in order to get better motels for the team, successfully convincing them by promising a good treatment when Gatling visits Dillon. Smash wants to know more about his deceased father, something that his mother has never wanted to discuss. After a bad experience at his old childhood place, he finally talks with his mother, who confesses that his father died while driving with a woman on an affair. That night, he visits his father's gravestone. During the game, Dillon struggles against Gatling's defense, resulting in Tim getting injured in his own end zone and a safety in Gatling's favor. During this, Lyla storms off the field when she is mocked over her affair. Buddy consoles her in the parking lot, affirming that he cares more for her than a game. Back at the game, Eric (Kyle Chandler) gets Tim back on the game after he recovers from his injury, and he leads the Panthers to win the game with a touchdown. Julie descends to the field to congratulate Matt, who surprises her by kissing her in the lips.
In November 2006, NBC announced that the ninth episode of the season would be titled "Full Hearts". The episode was written by Aaron Rahsaan Thomas and directed by Josh Pate. This was Thomas' first writing credit, and Pate's first directing credit.
