00:28I got to consider our other members,

00:32I work in a bakery shop.
00:34Fetch, ball boy.
00:36That's not even a tough shot, Felipe.
00:38Oh yeah, Cordy says you can't do better.
00:40How about that?
00:42Throw, throw, throw!
00:44Where'd you learn to hit like that?
00:46Where'd you learn to hit like that?
00:52How would you boys like to be the first members
00:54of the San Felipe high school golf team?
00:56They asked me to join the new golf team today.
00:58Golf?
01:00They'll bring your sombrero anywhere, man.
01:02Whenever you're invited to a gringo party,
01:04you're either the entertainment or the help.
01:06Let me ask you something. Are they any good?
01:08Nope.
01:10Look, I don't want to be a babysitter
01:12to a bunch of juvenile delinquents
01:14who just want to get out of detention.
01:16You boys built all this?
01:18Yes, Mr. Mitchell.
01:20Sorry, boys.
01:22When we spoke on the phone, I assumed you were American.
01:24Well, you assumed right.
01:32Now, these teams,
01:34they've had access to a lot of things you boys haven't.
01:36But the best part is,
01:38they've got a lot of experience.
01:40They've got a lot of experience.
01:42They've got a lot of experience.
01:44They've had access to a lot of things you boys haven't.
01:46But the best golfer isn't the one with the fanciest clubs.
01:48It's the one who can summon the will
01:50to keep swinging when things get tough.
01:52And that's you boys.
02:02People need to see us
02:04more than just caddies and cannon fodder.
02:14You know, that's just life.
02:16Sometimes you land on the green,
02:18sometimes you're in the bunker,
02:20but you always play it as it lies.
