All American Season 5 Episode 17 will be called “Mask off”. Man, I gotta start with Olivia and Spencer’s relationship, because Olivia got this award coming up. And when you look in the trailer, you see Liv there, she’s looking nervous. You also see Spencer and he is there with Alicia. I know they got back together, but man, it has been a while since Spencer and Olivia have been together.
We know Oliva, she put it all out there and let Spencer know exactly wanted. But then she got kind of passive and end up letting Alicia get back with him. And while Spencer returned with Alicia, he looked at Olivia like she didn’t want what he wanted. But it’s been so long since they’ve been together.
Eventually, Olivia got to talk to somebody, man. She’s a very beautiful girl, she’s in college, she’s around a bunch of dudes, and she has got fraternities, I mean, the Sky’s the limit. So Olivia will start talking to somebody if Spencer doesn’t talk. I get he is there as a friend, but eventually, this is going to happen.
I didn’t think it was, but I’m starting to think it is because it’s been so long since they have actually been together. And other dudes gonna start taking their shots. She’s getting an award, she gonna be at the forefront. So it might happen in this next episode where somebody comes on that’s potential for Olivia. And I mean a real potential, not the guy that she was working with. I mean, I did not think he had a shot at all. But somebody should come along soon if they’re not together now.

All American Season 5 Episode 17 Spoilers
We also got more football happening and we get a new character they will introduce, but he’s really gonna be on the team now. We see that they are building their team, you know, and they going to talk about something personal with the guys. They are talking about that in the All American Season 5 Episode 17 trailer, you already kind of see where they going with it.
But they build their Team and Buddy looked cold when he was running. So they building their team up and they should be competitive come next year, like real competitive. They still got Spencer, they still got Jordan and they are getting all these new dudes to build their team. We know they lost so many people when all of them dudes did what they did.
But while they building a team, they got to be a bad guy. Like we thought it was going to be more of Chestnut’s character, but seemed like he is not going to be as bad as they presented him at the beginning. Like I thought he was going to be a Super Bad character but he is not.
It’s going to be this guy that they showing in the preview that’s coming on saying that “they got ex-cons playing on the team”. Like what’s going on? And it makes sense for somebody to come because I think that is really realistic. Somebody will come if you bring it on dude just got out of the penitentiary and all that stuff. Come on, somebody will come. He might not be penitentiary, he probably was just in normal jail.
But somebody going to come, and it’s this white guy. He’s gonna be the bad guy, he’s gonna be the guy that’s gonna cause some disruption on the team and put coach Kenny in a really funny situation where he is going to have to make some tough decisions, whether he is going to lead people on the team or let him go, man.
Coop Tries To Be Herself
The other thing going on in All American Season 5 Episode 16 is that Coop ends up getting officially into that class. I can’t remember the one teacher’s name, but he was a real jerk and he said “Oh, you might want to chill out, you have to meet up with this study group, but you might only get one first impression and you might wanna chill out with your slang and the way you talk”.
That was really messed up that he is literally being racist, like, he was saying, “Oh, you need to watch the way you talk, and because people only get one first impression and they might not like you if you talk the way you talk”. But in reality, it’s like be you, be you, and show them who you are, and don’t change for anybody.
I’m really glad that eventually, she warmed up to the group and she just started saying, “screw it, I’m gonna be myself, I’m not gonna let this teacher get in my head. I’m gonna, be me, I’m gonna show them who I am”. Because and at the end of the day, who cares what people think of you, I mean, you should be the only person that cares what you think about yourself, you shouldn’t care what other people think about you and you shouldn’t have to change for anybody.
So that’s what I really love is that Cooper is like, “I’m gonna be me, I’m gonna show them who I am” and they loved her. That teacher just got in her head and that was just really weird. You should never judge a book by its cover and this teacher judged Coop by the way Coop looked. He judged her, then got to know her, and then as the and has the nerve to say, “Oh, you got in my class but also you have to meet up with this group and you only get one first impression, and you should not talk the way you talk”.
That shit was whack, but I’m really glad that Coop showed people who she was. I was like that’s what’s up and they loved her. It was really cool seeing Coop making friends and stuff like that and they really like to love her perspective on how she talks about certain cases and certain things. I’m, I’m really loving that for Coop.
Problems Between Skye And Coop
But I am really annoyed at Skye. I don’t really know, I kind of remember what’s going on with Coop and Skye about how Coop didn’t like how Skye was kind of getting really close to Patience and stuff like that and really getting close to the Vortex.
I understand that but we kind of got away from that and there have been so many other plot lines going around where I did not take Skye’s side on this one about Skye being upset that Coop didn’t make it to social media and how they survive the Internet as an influencer. Like she did her big speech about that and Coop couldn’t make it because she got accepted into the class, and for her to be accepted into the class she had to go to that study group. And so she had to miss Skye’s big speech even if she wanted to go.
The thing is that previously, early in the All American Season 5 Episode 16, she finds out from Layla that Skye had that event going on and Skye didn’t tell Coop that she had that event going on. And then the next thing she ends up going to Skye, and Skye’s grandma ended up getting hurt.
Skye’s grandmother hurt her hip or broke her hip and then Skye’s like, “Oh, it’s just a bruise, it’s not a big deal”. And then Coop was like, she didn’t tell me about her having this speech. She didn’t tell him about her grandmother. What’s going on about her not telling her things? And Skye was like she didn’t wanna bother her about stuff that’s not important.
It’s like Skies being petty, if there’s a problem here, you need to talk to Coop. I really couldn’t take Skye’s perspective about their relationship at all from what I was seeing. Mind you, I don’t remember a lot previously about what was going on, but I don’t see anything about what Coop is doing as wrong.
Coop Busy With Perusing Her Dreams
But in reality like Coop one to show up but she couldn’t because she had to go to that. Because if she didn’t go to that study group, she would have been accepted in that class and her wanting to be a lawyer wouldn’t come true. She’s doing the things that she needs to do to become a lawyer and that’s what she’s doing.
So the fact that Skye didn’t understand that when Coop was like telling Skye that “Oh, great news, I got accepted into the class, I had to go to the study group and that’s why I wasn’t there. And my one teacher told me I couldn’t talk the way I talk because it wouldn’t like me. But I said screw it and they ended up liking me”. And all Skye could say is that, “You didn’t show up to my speech”.
It’s like, Coop is really excited about telling you about this, and in reality, it’s like Coop realized what she did was wrong and you didn’t give Coop minutes to kind of trying makeup for the situation. And of course, Skye said she was done with Coop. I just can’t take Skye’s side because she was lying to her previously about not telling her about things. And in reality, it’s like she could not miss what was going on at school because that’s a big opportunity and that’s a life-changing moment that will eventually get her to her dreams.
Coop And Skye Need To Fix Their Relationship
It’s like you guys are both busy, you guys need to regroup. You guys need to understand that you both are busy and kind of regroup and make it up to each other for being busy. Not telling Coop about stuff that’s going on in your life because you’re upset about something that I can’t remember as a watcher and viewer of the show.
I can’t entirely agree with you not telling Coop about things. It’s like one of the things I was like, I can’t agree with you and I don’t see what Coop is doing is wrong and I’m very confused.
Also, I really don’t care much about this Skye character. She’s not Patience I really love the Coop and Patience’s relationship. I know we’re probably never gonna get that back but she’s not Patience with me, so it’s like I really don’t care. And in reality, I hope that they end up making it work out and I really hope that Skye can understand why Coop couldn’t miss it.
But in reality, Skye did say like “All I would want, all I wanted was an apology”. But she really didn’t give Cooper a moment to apologize and her mits of being really excited about her being accepted into the class that she’s been trying really hard to get into so she can become a lawyer. So I was like, I couldn’t take Skye’s side on that.
But I’m really curious to know your opinion, about how you feel about that. Do you think Coop was wrong? Did you think she was not wrong? Do you guys think that they should have just regrouped and understood that they’re both busy and they need to regroup and just talk about their day and kind of try to make it up to one another?
That’s how you make relationships strong, is that when you realize that you both are busy you make the time to make it up to one another and keep the relationship strong. That’s why I didn’t see from Skye’s perspective her kind of keeping things from Coop for no reason. Because again I don’t remember if maybe there was something previously on why she was keeping things from Coop.
