We're back with a new episode of Friday Night Lights. We left the show with a big need for letting go, some filled and others, well, not so. So Landry's over Tyra, and he's actually convinced Jess that he's starting over. Sure, that's a good thing. It'll take a while before Becky (my new favorite character!) gets over the fact that her dad's not going to invest anything more in her anymore -- he's got a new family, after all.

But Julie? I don't know who's at fault here. Well, love can be so confusing, so I'll give it that. She's doing everything to get over Matt leaving her -- how many clubs did she join again? -- but the bottom line is, it isn't going to be as easy as seven distractions. Then again, Matt left and didn't even get back to her. He called the family, but not his girlfriend? He didn't exactly break up with her, right?

Yeah, that'd be painful, so I can quickly forget Tami being "mouth-raped".

Well, there are good things still happening, and that's in the football field, where Eric finally gives the Lion its necessary footing. Vince's got even more to do now that Luke's injured his ankle -- and the toll will be hard. And then there's the things that happen off-field: all the crime, example, that made most folks in East Dillon not-so-optimistic about things. I'm sure Vince is trying to go past that, but it's going to be hard.

And Tim? Is he buying that tract of land? Or is he making another mistake again? Friday Night Lights returns with a new episode tonight from 8pm on NBC.
