Episode Details:
Bailey seriously injures another football player during practice and his feelings of guilt keep him from being able to play. Joe has a mild heart attack and has to change his lifestyle, so Charlie takes over the day to day management of Salinger's. Julia and Griffin's relationship begins to heat up and Julia thinks that Griffin will expect a sexual relationship -- something for which she is not prepared. But, Griffin tells Julia that he does not want to be her "first" since she will surely make a big deal out of it, and he is "not into big deals."
