November 3, 1982

RODEO
Evan learns rodeo riding from hard-bitten ex-champion Cooper Johnson, but to Adam's dismay, he plans to drop out of high school to join the rodeo circuit. However, after watching Coop verbally lash Evan and the other young people in the rodeo school, Brian loses his temper and challenges Coop to a fight. Only later does he learn of Coop's special relationship with Sally, one of the girls in the class whom Coop has been riding the hardest. Meanwhile, Adam and Hannah try every means to persuade Evan to stay in high school.
