S02E05 Bring the Pain
After Spencer and Olivia's efforts to try to get help for Layla blow up in their faces, Layla pretends that everything is fine by throwing a birthday party for Olivia and Jordan. With Spencer not in a good place after the news he receives about Corey, he is forced to have dinner with the biggest football booster, and it doesn't go well. Coop is ready to start recording the music she wants but Preach pushes her to try something that isn't her style. Meanwhile, Jordan finds himself in trouble and turns to his dad for help, leaving Billy to do what's best for his family even though Laura doesn't like it.
