Number One
performed by Sebastian Pigott

Earl has to deal with item #1 "Stole $10 from a guy at the Camden Market", which he used to buy his winning lottery ticket.

Kevin's addiction to pain medication and alcohol is wearing him down. He attends the Alumni Honors Ceremony at his old high school, receives the Distinguished Alum Award, but says he does not deserve it. He pretends to play football on the field, doing play-by-play commentary on his ruined opportunities. Charlotte, an alumna, invites him to her house; when she is not looking, he searches her house for medication, and finds and steals a prescription form. He goes to a pharmacy with a fake prescription, sees police officers, notices his pendant missing, and leaves. In flashbacks, Randall starts a Harvard application, but is interested in Howard University. Kevin and his family meet a college football recruiting coach; afterwards, Jack is angry with Kevin for his attitude; Jack later apologizes. Kevin's football aspirations end one game when his knee is injured. Jack comforts Kevin and gives him the pendant he received in Vietnam for protection. In the present, Kevin goes to Charlotte's house to find the pendant, but she will not let him in. Kevin is desperate, needing help; he goes to Randall's house to tell him something, but Randall assumes it is about Kate losing her baby.
